Vastu - Techniques of Indian Ancient Traditional system of dwelling resulting Harmony - SubhaVaastu.com
Vastu: In modern era vastu has elaborately spread its branches world wide. Now most of the residents are interested to show their properties to vastu consultants or evaluate their houses as per vaasthu shastra. To speak the truth, the vaastu shastra has emerged to make the life of human kind most fruitful, with the help of five elements i.e., Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Sky.
Through the civilized man has no mind to peep into its utilitarian aspect, throughout the ages, it came along with the motive to make the human living, a better place of peace and prosperity. The previous science has been updated for the present generation. Nothing emerged in this universe, till today or will emerge without or other than these five elements those are Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Sky. Among them the first three are more essential to make a good heaven, if they are disordered it will become a hell. Getting good results as per vasthu select a rectangular or square plot, and construct the house according to vasthu shastra. Better to approach one vastu consultant before selecting the plot, this is always advised method, take his suggestions in selecting the plot and house construction with garden also, if you require.
Some residents are taking their own decision in selecting the plot / flat / house / factory / property with having minimum knowledge on vaastu shastra. (This matter is came from www.SubhaVaastu.com) Their thought is to avoid to pay for vaasthu consultant fee and later they suffer with so many losses or disturbances through their erratic modifications or alterations or selection of the properties or constructions and the like. The observations and corrections made were noted and concluded only after in-depth examination and screening the situations. We should not given any opportunity to fate to became as a fool, be a leader before your friends and relatives. It may be through only your right and exact right time decisions. (This matter is from www.subhavaastu.com). If we calculate the consultant fee it will become below one percent of our properties. Then why should we count that one percent. Be a great personality, life is too short, utilize each and every minute with full of useful decisions. Our birth purpose is not to be stand as a fool before our neighbors nor relatives or friends. Even today the real estate people are also interested to do business when the property with vaastu compliance, if the property is not vaasthu compliance most of them are not interested for consideration. If onefollowed the constructional vaastu principles then their business will be automatically improved. If one is looking for home improvement or development, it is better to think on Indian vasthu principles for secured future benefits.
Here is a very small incidence: One Karthika (Saree seller) from Hyderabad city (City Name changed to protect privacy) having full of saree stocks, very valuable stuff. Her husband is running a factory (manufacturing plastic materials). They planned to construct one dream home. (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) They purchased half acre (real fact) of land in Hyderabad city (City Name changed) and constructed a beautiful palace. Before constructing their palace, husband requested Karthika better to approach one expert vasthu consultant to show their land for good advises. He instigated her to invite one expert from Delhi or Mumbai. She protest his thought and called one vasthu pandit who asked only Rs.516/-. Later that so called great vaasthu pandit visited the property, then he recommended one Yantra for the main door (Which costs about only Rs.21,116/-) and one ritual coconut to hang in living room which costs about only Rs.3,116/-, one crystal Shree Yantra which costs about Rs.10,116/-, the poor lady seen only his fee of Rs.516/- and accepted all of his recommendations. He given one plan for their dream house. Construction completed and poor couple joined into their dream project with many new hopes. Believe it or not within a very shortest period, they are getting rice and domestic items from her brother for daily life. This couple lost every thing. Yes every thing. She stopped running Saree business and her husband is not attending factory regularly and hiding from his creditors. Previously this family was operated money lending business, their position reached to below average after joining into the house.
Here is their selected plot and vastu pandit recommendations.
There is a street focus to this plot from Southeast, the pandit thought that this street focus is good as it is hitting to the plot on Southeast-east corner, but this street has started from almost Southwest corner. If one street is hitting from southwest part to any property, then the residents position will be gradually downwards, they have to bare all pains with or without known mistakes. Some people thought that a street is hitting the property only at Southwest is called Southwest street thrust, but this opinion is wrong, you may read more articles on Street Focus here. Now that pandit recommendations for this house plan are as under :
Observe the pandit recommendations to this plot. The sump is exactly Northeast corner of the house. The sump (water storage well typed construction). The gate is exactly Northeast-north to the house. Is this right ? . Finally crorepathis turned to bikshadipathis. Why this happens, who is the main cause for this mistake or fault. Why residents taken decision to shown their property to one half knowledge pandit, it may be a reason that they were live in a erratic constructed property before start this new venture. Otherwise how it is possible. The entire project costs about 2.3 crore. Shall we call it as a negligence or mistake or fate.
Please note some important points before constructing the house.
Boundary is important while we are going to calculating the vasthu principles to any property.
Here the vastu pandit thought that sump is towards Northeast corner to the house only. But is it totally wrong method, sump should always at Northeast corner of our entire premises, not the Northeast corner of our living area.
The pandit planned the main gate towards northeast-north direction, but here, the main gate gone to northwest-north.
All his recommendations are worthless and against to the principles of vaasthu shastra.
Now the house has been corrected according to vastu shastra secrets. The sump has been moved towards exact northeast corner of the plot and the main entrance has been shifted towards northeast corner of the plot. (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) The present sump has been closed and covered with soil. The gate also closed with wall. New gate opens towards northeast-north. Regarding street focus, constructed one commercial big shop and the main entrance of the shop is towards south. No attachment for the shop and house, bifurcation completed.
That is why Indian elders said a proverb as "donkey should not do dog's job" .
Why should we left a chance to fate. Approach one expert vastu consultant before buying a Plot / Flat / House / Factory or Any property. Before buying or constructing properties, we should not forget about our health. Money is important for living, but health is more than that. (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) Vaasthu Shastra addresses every sphere of your general well being starting from health, to relationships and most importantly finances. Having a well balanced cash flow and investments is crucial to having a good lifestyle and for overall prosperity. Very often it's been noted that professional in different lines of work may have problems regarding shortages, debts and expenses, inspite of a fairly good income. Even people, though quite rich due to ancestral property or family business may experience a vacuum in their lives. These problems could be attributed to improper house constructions.
Any person experiencing obstacles in financial situations should confirm if their home is constructed according to the vaasthu principles to ensure an unhindered financial flow. (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) Vaastu Shastra primarily focuses on the directions such as northeast, North-west, South-east and South-west. Each of these directions is governed by any one of five elements, that is fire, water, air, earth and space which form the basis of traditional science vasthu shastra.
Short Focus on this small diagram on Vastu and Finance :
Vaasthu shastra can help to improve your finances by considering the existing structures in your home, and understand how some structures could aid in positive financial flow, while others could create obstacles, and remedies for the latter. Many are thinking about vaastu in the house or home or property, but there is an another system is working and balancing on a certain property. Invisible monitering is also being run without your permission on your pre fetched vaasthu construction.
Here one Indian wants to buy this property, it is a commercial property, almost deal is settled and it has to be finalized after completion of discussions with financiers and friends. Later this venture was came to us and found some defects in this entire property. The property is hitting by Southwest open space, actually more open space is advisable for them in point of the nature of their business, if the property is open on road side, it gets more good business. This is natural for business environment, commerce is good and advertisement is not a evil. But consider with vaasthu principles it was been justify, that property is not fit for healthy means of business and later consideration cancelled.
Some body has taken this property, later it was on roads for resale after 18 months. What is wrong with this property. The entire Southwest was vacant and there is Street Thrust hitting. Vision is good, thought is great, but should not forget vaasthu shastra principles if we expect secured financial growth. The same property which is shown from South end. Badly hitting from South side, how this construction will bless the property owner with healthy financial means. Below is the near view.
Now the property is very near and close look, the East and North is also elevated. But this is not a bigger issue while considering with West and South damages. All directions should be considered with high priority in case of purchases, but it is not so important in case of taking the same for rents and that to for only short period. The most important point to be remember is Northeast should not be disturbed at any cost. Here Northeast also almost disturbed. One should not buy the Northeast truncated properties. Those properties may not support the inhabitants when compare with other properties which have good Northeast.
For every property we should check all directions, land elevations, surroundings, construction style, strength of the construction, property age, load baring, placement of doors, windows, lofts etc. While in selecting properties (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) we have to evaluate the things with the principles of vastu shastra. Vaastu directions, conducive to financial prosperity are the North and Northeast directions. The North direction is ruled by the lord of Wealth, Kuber and the North-east direction is governed by the element water, which is regarded as an indication of a person's financial status according to vaasthu shastra. Other directions should also be checked to ensure that they are in proper order to avoid any negative influence related to finances, such times of we planned to grow in businesses. Since north is the direction of Lord, Kuber, a blockage in this direction, would imply obstacles in the flow of wealth and prosperity into the house is blocked such direction. However, if the block at that part may cannot be removed or there is no such chances to remove a part or entire wing then, (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) placing an small water body at that part is also serves as a good remedy, but this also been laid only if the outside permits to do so, otherwise it is best to evaluate with an expert in this field.
Every body wants to develop financially, if it is so vastu helps lot. North or northeast is specially good for ensuring financial gains. (This matter is came from www.subhavaastu.com) A single main door from the south should be avoided, if two doors have to be fixed the combination should be north and east, east and south, east and west, north and south, but should be south to west, west to south. In case of three doors it would be preferable to locate the doors on three sides other than south or west, like north, east and south or east, north and west, but it should not be like south, west and east, or west, south and north like that.

I really appreciate the diagrams that you prepared for my home with pictures and arrows showing the changes need to be done. Above all, you explained very well the reasons behind changes you recommended for my home with great clarity and sense of humor. No doubt in my mind, you are the best Vaastu expert, I really appreciate your dedication by building and maintaining a very informative Vaastu website that is helping thousands of people across the globe. Also, I sensed when I talk to you and when I was dealing with you, you follow honesty and integrity and you have a sincere desire to help others - Kotesware Rao - Dallas - USA
We are tech professionals and working in USA. After a year long search we brought the house. After buying the house I started looking into vaastu consultant who can help me evaluating the house. I came across Subhavaastu website which has lot of vaastu information. I contacted Mr.Suresh and requested him to help with our house vastu. It has been a great pleasure working with him. He is very detailed oriented person and never compromises with his work. I am typically not interested to deliver the reviews. But after working with Mr. Suresh I decided to share my experience. Mr. Suresh has great expertise in providing vaastu consultation to USA property. He is always available through email and phone l to answer questions. I am writing this review hoping it will help other people like me who lives in abroad. Please take vaastu advise before buying the house. I highly recommend Mr. Suresh as he has great experience with structure of USA properties and also he provides genuine consultation. I really appreciate Mr. Suresh's help in evaluating our house vaastu - Padma - Boston - USA
The website Subhavaastu.com is very informative.Sureshji, the founder of this website is according to me a great ¨human who has vast knowledge in vastushastra and his kindness to his clients are appreciated. He listens to his clients problems patiently and gives the appropriate remedies. His main motto is good service and he responses as quick as possible. I spoke to Sureshji as a stranger only, but after one phone call itself , I started feeling that he is a caring well wisher for whoever asks his help. He is a genuine person. He doesn't force you to spend money in the name of vasthushastra, he explains clearly where the problem is and tries to give very easy changes to have a peaceful life. Sathya Priya - Switzerland
I have consulted SubhaVaastu (Suresh Gaaru) during December 2014 during the process of buying a house in Texas, USA. I have occupied the house for one year now, and feel like dropping a review regarding my experience during the entire process. I am very much satisfied with the kind of service I received from Subhavaastu. He is very knowledgeable about vaastu and I was often stunned by his detailed analysis during the course of my interaction with him. He was very much accessible over phone (perhaps more than 10 times for one house plan!) and the price is very much reasonable especially compared with the cost of the house. I noticed his burning desire to help me in making informed decisions on certain things. I have seen some people pretending to know Vaastu and misguiding those who come for help by saying only what we want to hear. SubhaVaastu is definitely not that one. Finally, I am strong believer of leaving certain things to experts in those subjects. I have been in US for more than 13 years and have seen people doing their own vaastu (by reading website articles) trying to save few dollars. Please don't do that. You would end up in causing more damage. I highly recommend you to engage SubhaVaastu in your next project - Satish - Dallas - TX - USA

We are seeing at several places sudden eruption or outburst even among closely knit families. In addition constant friction based on imaginative behaviour of spouse, father, mother, siblings, cousins etc haunt us and we our self take contrary position in every situation leading to permanent discord. After some time we become hateful to each other without any cause or purpose. These are situations which we may not like to discuss with other people and seek their advice. In such cases we think we are fated. This patently is wrong. Many people don't know the power of vastu and how it influences the residents. Not knowing this is no fault. But not attempting to know borders on foolishness. We confirm authoritatively that these situations are in most cases results of vastu infirmity. This can be analysed and pointed out only by a competent vastu scholar. We are prepared to offer free of cost services only online in this regard for 10 days from 3rd of September, 2017 upto 14th of September 2017. During this period kindly seek our advice and profit by it. Its costs you nothing. Thanking you. Team – SubhaVaastu.com. More details available at Free Vastu Services page.

text: Another Hunting story; For those reading this post, I teach Hunter Safety and also I am a Army Veteran. One of the programs I pay very strict attention to in both the Army and the Civilian life is the Survival training. Why? Because I am always getting lost. It was back in Missouri, the scene of many of my crimes. I was deer hunting (rifle season this time) and found nothing on my brother-in-laws farm so decided to hop the fence and start hunting in the Ozark National forest. I had been in this area only a few times but was confident I couldn't get lost. WRONG. I was walking along and saw a rather strange tree. It was shaped like the letter Y and looked for all the world like a sling shot. Looking at it and thinking 'what a sling shot that would make heh heh,' I walked on and about an hour or so later I came around a hill and there was a tree that looked like a sling shot. Holy Moly I thought. The place is full of those sling shot tees. But just because I had a hunch, I went up to the tree and taking out my hunting knife I cut on the bark a big X, and then continued hunting. Two hours later I was really pooped and had decided to go home when I came around this hill and there was a third slingshot tree! I went up to it and checked and sure enough there was my X knife cut. I had a real bad feeling I was going around in circles. So drawing on my extensive Army survival training I came up with a plan. In the Missouri Ozarks the roads are almost always on the ridges and hills, because the valleys are full of rivers and flooding 'cricks'. So my plan was to only go up hill and eventually I would come to a road and then I would be saved. Trudging up a hill I saw some boards on a tree. Ah Ha! boards meant civilization and I am saved! I went up to the tree and looked around thinking to find a barn or path or house. Nothing. Taking a closer look at the boards I discovered a telephone mounted on the boards. A plain old black wall type telephone. "Well," I thought, "this is a National Forest so this must be a Forest Ranger phone. I will pick it up and Ranger Rick will answer and he will tell me how to get home." So I picked up the phone. No Ranger Rick. Just a dial tone. Now I do not know about the rest of you guys but I rarely use the phone and I don't keep a long list of telephone numbers memorized and stored in deep reaches of my brain. So the 1st of 2 telephone numbers I remember was my own. So I called home. And Linda answered. "Hi Honey, this is Sarge, I might be a little late getting home cause I am lost in the woods." I explained. Silence. "You see I got lost but I found this phone out here in the woods so I thought I would call you and tell you that I was lost and would be late finding my way out of the woods." "My brother talked you into stopping at a bar, didn't he?" she replied. "No, Honey, honest, I am some where in the Ozark National forest and I am lost but I found this phone and................. click. She hung up on me. So drawing from my vast unused but with good potential, memory I drug up the other phone number that I had memorized. I dialed operator. And she answered "Operator, may I help you?" "Yes operator, I'm a hunter, see, and I am lost in the Ozark National Forest, and if you could look up and tell me where this phone is then I would know where I am and then I would not be lost." I replied. Long silence.... "I beg your pardon?" she answered. "Lady do you know where this phone is?" I asked again. "No!" she answered. "Then how come you answered it!" I hollered! and she hung up..... Well things were getting real serious. I had just bolo'd out on all the phone numbers I knew and... Wait a minute, maybe there is a phone book around here. I looked and looked and nothing. No phone book! Darn I figured if I could find a phone book then I would call up a Pizza place and order a pizza delivered and then ride back with the Pizza guy. So what to do? Think Think, telephone telephone, telephone cord? Cord??? That is IT!! This thing must be connected to something. I looked around behind the boards and sure enough, there was the wire. It went up into the tree branches and up and up and then it jumped to another tree. I followed. A quarter a mile later it came out on a highway. Happy? I guess you know I was. I was saved!! I was not lost anymore! But I still didn't know where the heck I was. So I used my survival skills again. From my pocket I pulled a direction finding device. Flipping it into the air it came down heads, so I went down the road to the left. And I walked and walked and finally about sundown I found the Lake of the Ozarks. Which meant that I was now 17 miles from my brother-in-laws farm. If I had gone to the right I would have been home by now. RATS Nothing but to do but turn around and start walking north. About 11:30 pm that night I finally came trudging up the farm lane, and.... found the drive way full of police cars, trucks with horse trailers behind them, a whole gang of rescuers. My brother-in-law came running up to me. Your safe, your OK, you're not lost. (he was worried about some money I owed him I am sure) "Yes," I replied "And if you weren't so cheap and had a telephone put in I could have called you from out in the woods!" He just stared at me and motioned a EMT paramedic to come over quickly. Sounds like a happy ending but there is more. The next day I talked my nephew and my buddy that was hunting with us, into going with me to find the telephone. (nobody else believed me but these two) (dumb)So we drove the road for hours until I found where the telephone lines came out to the pole. Then we back tracked them and sure enough, there was my telephone on the tree. HA HA. We took pictures, of me holding the phone to my ear and then of everyone on the phone. Lots of pictures. I show them unbelievers!! I could hardly wait to get back. I told everyone about my telephone, My wife still looked questioning and everyone at work laughed and made a funny sign with their finger in a circle on the side of their head. Three days later I went by the store and no pictures. They had lost my pictures! A week later, still no pictures. By now no one would set with me in the company cafeteria. My wife was crying every night and no one seem to believe me no matter what I said. Finally three weeks later I got a call and they had found my pictures. I showed them to everyone. Even people on the streets that I walked by. Vindicated! Actually most of my best friends believed me and would comment, "Only Sarge could find a phone in the middle of a forest" or some sort of friendly, jokeingly, smart alec statement. (you will have to remember that this happened before there was such a thing as a cell phone.) But that was just one of the many times I got lost, I will tell you some more some time. The end. Sarge the lost in the woods guy

Just a couple of weeks ago I wrote the following in response to news about Arnold Schwarzenegger, Donald Trump, and Dominique Strauss-Kahn:
It's a constant storyline in the media involving powerful men in politics, sports, business, and even religion: Men behave with utter disregard for the dignity and humanity of women -- using and abusing them at will, and somehow believing that they are entitled to do so. These men seem to think that the ordinary rules of decent behavior do not apply to them.
This afternoon, Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY) admitted, after 9 days of denial, that he had in fact sent a lewd photo of himself to a college student in Seattle. He also admitted that this is not the only time he has had inappropriate relationships online with women who are not his wife. "I have not been honest with myself. I am deeply ashamed of my terrible judgment," he said.
While the Congressman said that his indiscretions were only online and never physical, I have to repeat my earlier thoughts: "These men seem to think that the ordinary rules of decent behavior do not apply to them." Congressman Weiner should be ashamed. I hope all of these recent revelations are lessons to politicians everywhere: Your sin will find you out.

Auctions with Downstream Interaction among Buyers
We study auctions for an invisible object. The outcome of the auction influences the future interaction among agents. The impact of that interaction on agent's is assumed to be a function of the agent's valuations. While agent's i valuation is private information to i, the other valuations are not observeable by i at the time of the auction. We derive equilibrium bidding strategies for second price auctions in which the seller may impose reserve prices or entry fees, while pointing out the differences between the cases where impacts (which we call externalities) are positive or negative. Finally, we study the effect of reserve prices and entry fees on the seller's revenue.

More than 300 youths from all over Morocco are gathered in Rabat, the capital city, as part of a national forum against torture.
The meeting, held under theme "Together for Human Rights Together against Torture", seeks to publicize the role of the World's human rights watch dog, Amnesty International, and its efforts to spread education in general and education on human rights in particular.
Participants are also studying how to reinforce the role of human rights organizations in the fight against all forms of torture and in preserving children's rights.
"We will raise the issue of impunity, part of our mobilization against torture," Mr. Ahmed Chajii, from the organizing committee, said.
Shortly after coming to power in July 1999, Morocco's young King Mohammed VI set up a special committee to extend compensation to the victims of torture at the hands of the authorities. The compensation, set at $600 monthly, is part of an effort to change Morocco's bleak human rights record.
However, rising voices in Morocco are demanding that all those who tortured the people detained for political reasons in the 1980's and the 1990's are brought before the courts.
The Amnesty International-sponsored meeting in Rabat, that will wind up on September 13th, will submit its final recommendations to the authorities.

I hate stereotypes. Some of my favorite toys as a girl were toy cars and dump trucks. I liked to play in the dirt. Though I liked wearing dresses, I much prefered a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. When I found out that I was having a little girl of my own, I vowed that her room would never be bland, pink, and lacy like the typical girls room decor. We were going to pump up the creativity!
My daughter's nursery featured space-themed wall murals and stick-on, glow-in-the-dark stars. Her bedding was a sky blue sprinkled with star shapes. I got a lot of compliments on this room, but there was many more to come.
Two years later we welcomed our second little girl. Because our house at the time only had two bedrooms, our girls had to share. I decided to use the girls' birthstone colors for their room together. My oldest daughter's birthstone is pink and my younger daughter's is blue. I painted overlapping rectangles of pink and blue all over their bedroom walls. The baby got blue bedding and my older daughter got pink bedding.
We've since moved into a bigger house and they have separate rooms now. My preteen's favorite colors are hot pink and black, so her room are those two colors. I painted her closet doors with hot pink chalk paint so that she can draw designs on them and her roller curtains are painted with hot pink flowers.
Our youngest daughter's favorite color is purple, so we chose purple bedding for her. But I went a different direction for the walls. One of her favorite songs is "Warm Kitty, Soft Kitty," so on each of her walls we drew a picture of one of the kitties in the song: One wall has warm kitty, one wall has soft kitty, etc. I drew each one larger than life using a large permanent marker and wrote one part of the song on each wall. My daughter colored the kitties using smaller permanent markers. It turned out to be really fun and the walls look great.
So, none of my daughter's rooms has turned out to be typical, but I think creative girls room decor is the best kind.
What is the theme of your daughter's bedroom? Tell us below in the comments section!

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Arts Education International, San Francisco, CA, USA
The largest problems in the world do not have simple solutions. However, we live in a world of instant gratification and synecdoches, whereas we process the majority of our information in summaries and tag lines. This is often especially true with philanthropy: We want simple, direct altruism, where we can throw money at a problem and know how it's being used in 10 words or less. This is where the great American conundrum of altruism is found: How can we make any significant progress very complex international problems when we require simple and direct solutions to feel morally gratified? Too often I feel that non-profits must distill their approach to a crisis in order to attract donors, and as a result the solutions become minute and vapid. Enter Arts Education International, the very definition of macro-solution. Food packages and clean water solve much of the basic needs in terms of pure survivalism. But how does one approach the larger, more abstract crises of the world,such the trauma of civil war and the preservation of the arts? Arts Education International provides emotional rehabilitation and comfort to children who have little other comfort or joy in their lives. By hiring indigenous artists for their programs, AEI helps to facilitate the arts, provide creative output for traumatized children, teach them to sustain themselves by producing and selling crafts, facilitating arts education, and providing jobs for artists, dancers, and musicians. Sarah Geller has assembled and trained some of the most talented dancers, musicians, and artists I've ever seen associated with an education-based non-profit organization. If you have not seen their videos I highly recommend them to get a true impression of what they are doing right now.

Review for Arts Education International, San Francisco, CA, USA
When I donate to non-profits, I oftentimes find myself worrying if my donation could have helped those in need more if I gave it to a different organization. I have never had that worry about AEI. Sarah Geller and her group really organize exceptional programs that emotionally rehabilitate those who need it most. This is more than evident in her work with the Vision Stars, a group of former child soldiers in Sierra Leone who record dance and hip hop music with the support of Arts Education International. It oftentimes makes me wonder why there aren't any other organizations focused on emotional rehabilitation through the arts. It is my intention to continue donating to Arts Education International and continue to check their website for updates.

amd continues to gain momentum with their 64-bit processors, and this time the push is coming from microsoft. though it is rare for microsoft to show alliance with a processor other than an intel, that is just what they have done, and it is big. amd has implemented code in athlon 64 and opteron processors that microsoft is working with the chip manufacturer to integrate in its next release of windows xp. the code makes it very difficult to exploit buffer overflows, which are the largest source of security holes; this would mean computers would have a built-in immunity to attacks like blaster and code red. it is thought that microsoft chose amd because they are ahead of intel in processor technology–intel does not have plans to incorporate this security feature in prescott or any pc chip slated for the next 18 months–itanium is the only processor to feature similar code. the code allows memory to be controlled as readable, writeable, or executable, which stops code from being executed in buffers designed to be read-only. other advances also keep malicious code from sending mail to your outlook contact list, an exploit that has been heavily used to deliver the malicious payloads. with plans to have the technology in the hands of consumers by mid-2004, this could be a major boon for both amd and microsoft. amd will benefit greatly from the ability to combat the biggest problem plaguing corporate network security, and microsoft will benefit as well because it reduces the largest threat to its operating system and applications. although the largest beneficiary of the development will be the consumer and corporate america, i can't imagine going a month without having to apply patches, then wondering what is still lurking that we don't know about. don't get me wrong: this does not make the internet a safe place, and it will only be a matter of time before another exploit is found, but it sure goes a long way in that direction. these are the kind of partnerships and technological developments we need; if this plays out like it sounds it will put intel behind the 8-ball.

it is really good, to see some serious competition to intel.
that keeps the market alive.
well done folks. continue like that. :) – by icarus
|wooooooo (10:42am est wed dec 17 2003)
does that mean big corporation and governments are going to start replacing bilion of office computers with amd 64s to make their network more secure …. i think so :)
go amd go …
|first 64-bit laptop? (10:56am est wed dec 17 2003)
will amd also be the first company in history to offer a portable 64-bit processor machine? i think so. no marketting spin needed on this one. one for the history books. just need a fully complete 64-bit os of any flavor to go with it to reap the full benefits. tech gurus will go gaga for a 64-bit laptop that lets them run any os they choose. – by amd makes prices low
|funny, microsoft does not implement this. (11:18am est wed dec 17 2003)
"the code allows memory to be controlled as readable, writeable, or executable, which stops code from being executed in buffers designed to be read-only."
unix and linux already allows data to be controlled as readable, writeable, or executable by user, group, all, or by root. all data under windows can be executable. if windows implemented the execution bit, the problems of virus and worms would be reduced by a significant amount. – by ms weak security
|ms weak security (11:28am est wed dec 17 2003)
ms is 10 years behind linux technology wise.
but linux is 15 years behind microsoft desktop wise.
good looking, flexible browsing desktop, who needs it, not me.
wich make windows an os for lammers by corporate monkeys.
the day cs client goes linux, m$ will lose 10% market share.
yes i am running linux. – by daspecialist

|are you sure ms is actually working on this? (12:13pm est wed dec 17 2003)
windows xp 64-bit edition delayed again?
ms is sure are slow with their x86-64. linux came out their x86-64 implementation at the amd opteron prototype stage.
|slip (2:21pm est wed dec 17 2003)
seems intel has been doing alot of "analyzing" this year. the beast has assumed a fetal position and that is so unlike intel. hope the first few quarters next year will be a good kick in the behind to get intel back on track.
not letting bugs send to your outlook addresses is good, but requireing a reboot to flush them out seems a little drastic for a server.
besides going smaller, hotter and slower, what is intel up to? – by zeke
|read/write/exe… (2:56pm est wed dec 17 2003)
this has the potential to stop some of the more blatant (i.e. op codes in fake url's, &c.) exploits, but – unless i am totally missing something, here – won't stop any of the old-school virii (well written trojans, &c. — .vbs b.s. is easy enough to block, n-e-way.)
i'm no asm pro, though — and i have yet to get a good look at the (down-n-dirty) opteron spec's (op code changes from the standard x86 arch.) — so i could be wrong, on this — anyone, out there, gotten their hands on an assembler/compiler (and a box to run it on) for this chipset, yet, who knows the fine details of how this will work?
– by asm_amature
|read/write/exe…[2] (3:14pm est wed dec 17 2003)
hmm… lost the 1st �
how will this work with front-end clients (i.e. an ide which allows you to switch assemblers/compilers (masm / gcc / javac / &c.))have to pass the name of the prog. to run as a process variable — ain't that going to wind up in the .exe memory space, allowing a sort of stack-overflow — just one step removed? – by asm_amature
|passing the buck (4:39pm est wed dec 17 2003)
doesn't this strike anyone as m$ passing responsibility for handling buffer overflows onto someone else, ie, amd? they should fix their own mistakes. – by norm thorsen
|no, it's not passing the buck. (5:00pm est wed dec 17 2003)
norm, if you worked in the it industry, you'd know that redundancy is the norm. looking at all the linux buffer overflows, i'm convinced this is a great step…if it works. it's quite stupid to blame ms for overflows when linux and osx both suffer from them. as to your 'passing the buck' argument, would you argue that hd makers are passing the buck to raid card manufacturers for their own failures? every decent server sold today has redundant disk arrays, redundant power supplies, redundant fans, memory registers. every major corporate network with decent admins has firewalls and locked-down servers as well as network authentication and anti-virus software on client machines. i see absolutely nothing wrong with the cpu helping the os prevent buffer overruns. – by steven
|yes, it is passing the buck (5:51pm est wed dec 17 2003)
steven in his usual stupid self. have you learned anything in the it industry?
windows xp, by default, provides unrestricted, "administrator" access to a computer including worms and viruses.
mac os x and linux get this right: users get broad rights, but critical system tasks require entering a password. if, for instance, a virus wants to install a "backdoor" for further intrusions, you'll have to authorize it.
windows xp home edition, however, ships with five ports open, behind which run "services" that serve no purpose except on a computer network. in comparison, mac os x ships with zero ports open to
windows treats data the same as code. there is no such thing as an execution bit in windows.
linux, unix and mac os x have been doing fine without any anti-virus software.
|analyze this (9:57pm est wed dec 17 2003)
ok, i was busy flying satellites earlier. done with that mess and really wanted to take a gig at intel pushing drm so dang hard and "analyzing" secure and stable computing platforms.
i know intel is very active in conferences and papers on secure computing but there has been more talk and "analyzing" in the last year, (or 2), than producing any solutions.
the focus intel has on drm just annoys me. makes the big money players happy but it does nothing that can't/won't be undone by our gifted pirates.
amd is doing much more with so much less and it solidifies my thoughts that amd is the current innovation leader in the industry. – by zeke

A budget crisis has delayed Los Angeles police efforts to test DNA evidence from hundreds of rape cases, but a new proposal could free up money to eliminate the backlog.
A motion submitted Friday by City Council President Eric Garcetti would provide about $377,000 to hire outside labs to process the DNA.
Crime victim advocates have criticized the Police Department for its huge backlog of evidence. Outsourcing helped the department reduce the number of untested evidence kits to around 1,300 but the money has run out.
Meanwhile, a plan to hire up to 26 employees for the police crime lab has stalled. A city panel recently refused to grant the exemptions to a city hiring freeze.
The motion would likely take weeks to reach the full council for consideration.

It really is hard to beat sleeping out under the stars in a national park. And recent improvements to the campground at Mesa Verde National Park make that activity even more comfortable.
The park's 435-site Morefield Campground is 4 miles inside the park's entrance. It's not exactly Spartan, either, as there are hot-water showers, coin-operated laundry, a camp store and cafe, and Wi-Fi access at the store. And for those who enjoy camping but aren't exactly comfortable in a small tent, park concessionaire ARAMARK offers what it calls "Base Camping" -- you can sleep in a 10-foot-by-12-foot canvass tent complete with carpeted floor, two cots, and lantern for lighting.
What you likely won't notice while staying in the campground, but which you'll undoubtedly benefit from, are the renovations the Park Service and ARAMARK put into the campground's water system last year. They overhauled the system and installed 23 meters throughout the campground, upgrades that saved 1.3 million gallons of water last year.
Morefield Campground is the entry point for three of the park's five hiking trails. Campers can explore Morefield or Chapin Mesa Trailheads that provide incredible access to miles of trails for hikers of every skill level.
Sites in the campground start at $20 per campsite, per night plus tax. The Base Camping sites range from $39-$49 per night. For more information, and to reserve a site, visit this site.

Discussion in 'Pro Match Results and Discussion' started by Bad_Knee, Apr 21, 2013.
Just saying....
Yup even with his knee 100% and movement the best it's ever been.
haha, I hope to see this thread pop up again in the near future, Nadal on a certain decline now
Nadal had his Canas moment. Took a long sabbatical, came back to the game fully fit and confident, did very well for a few tournaments...but now things are settling....
That's usually how it works.
Yep. Nadal plays lots and lots of tennis and loses, then it's an injury. Nadal plays sparely, manages his schedule well, is free of all injuries, then it's momentum and focus that he loses.
No happy medium.
Reserving this post for when this gets bumped in 5 years time.
Come on add a little description in the OP ,murras was fun by buckethead ... running like a headless chicken hahaha
Doubt this will get close to the original but I'll add myself to first page just in case.
He got destroyed in the first set but not second set....in fact Nadal broked twice to lead....Damm let Novak back in.
This reminds of that Murray thread.... good times.
I don't even know where Nadal can build on the h2h right now. Usually, he met Djokovic a gazillion times on clay and almost never on other surfaces.
15 wins and counting. If Nadal doesn't chicken out after the FO again, Djokovic should even out this year.
Gonna just post up in here and watch for the fugkery to take place
Reserved for bump!
The continuation of the 2011 world smackdown series. :lol:
Could this be 2011 all over again? Is Rafffffaaa's confidence shot or will winning Barcelona against a depleted field be enough to rev him up again?
Djokovic now has wins at the following big events against Nadal.
Only RG and Shanghai left, I believe.
NSK - So much for Nadal and Djokovic having the same H2H as Sampras and Agassi....
Can someone post a list of all the tournaments Rafa has beaten Nole in? I want to see.
Novak will eventually even out and surpass Nadal I think. If they meet on hardcourts Djokovic should take it most times and on clay it might be 50/50 from here on out unless Nadal's form goes back up to usual.
OMG WTF. LMFAO,that is disgraceful. :lol:
No, he's playing as good as ever but can't handle the tougher competition, right JV?
Winning Barcelona means zilch.
These are the big ones
Of the smaller events I can think of
Indian Wells
Monte Carlo
French Open
Olympics (hard)
Davis Cup (clay)
US Open
I agree but it gives Ralph confidence to win on clay again.
Not to him. Look what winning those piddly tournaments in South America did for his confidence.
Interestingly Nadal actually leads Djokovic on indoor hardcourts 2 -1, I think. Yet, Djokovic has two WTF titles and Nadal has only one final.
Based on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djokovic–Nadal_rivalry
they're dead even with 2-2
Nadal won the 2007,2010 WTF RR matches
Djokovic beat nadal in Paris in 2009 and the WTF RR the same year
circumstances ...
djoker played very poorly in YEC 2007 - losing to everyone , even worse than rafa in YEC 2009 ( when he lost to djoker )
in YEC 2010, it was even until 5 all in the first when djoker had some problems with his contact lenses ..
We should be able to crack the 100 page barrier when we get to Rome. 8)
Rome is gonna be a showdown!
Yes, you are right! I totally forgot that!
I know there were circumstances, I agree with you. But then you could say Nadal was being used by everyone as a door mat in 2009, when Djokovic got his two wins in. I just find it interesting they are so close in those conditions.
hahaha good one, that was what JV claimed even last year during the blue clay fiasco
Nadal vs Djok today at Monte Carlo looked so different than against everyone else this year- JMDP, Tsonga, etc. Once Nadal has control of the point there's no wrestling it away from him.
But against Djok, Nadal's topspin seemed to be strangely diminished today, didn't get up shoulder/head high, and elicited no weak backhand returns. It all seemed to be in Djok's comfort zone. His forehand DTL banana shot wasn't working as well as many other routine shots that he makes. Very strange, maybe Nadal is yet to find his 2012 confidence against Djok.
Don't think Nadal can play any better than he did today. Just not good enough that's all.
Djokovic has a back hand and he can last pretty much all it takes.
Yes I do hope to see this thread pop up again in the near future too :|
Always funny to read back threw these old posts. Since this thread was created, Rafa has won 3 of the 5 majors played. Djokovic has won the same number of majors as Bad_Knee and DropShotArtist in that time.
Nadal has now beaten Djokovic in the last 4 majors they met at. His previous record was 5.
I urge 5555 to start a thread about this..
Hahaha............uhuhhh.....as you were saying ? :twisted:
This thread just doesn't work any more.
He will start a new thread.
Have you not heard? Djokovic is the favorite for Wimbledon.
Oh! Yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh? It was close; but Nadal pulled it out - number 9 FO titles! 14 GS tied with Sampras
You can keep the Murray got destroyed thread but this one is pure fail, especially when one has 14 slams.
Separate names with a comma.

Indeed, T2 is a very large clade within I1*-AS and it has this geographical
flavour of more easterly location in north Europe. It is a relatively old
clade as I1* clades go. We definately want to learn whether T2 is derived
or ancestral for L338.
And of course the same message goes to I1* folks from other clades. It is
difficult to construct a tree for I1* in this bushy era of the last 4
thousand years or so. The nodes are just too close together to infer that
tree from genetic distances or variances between the clades. SNPs come into
their own in bushy trees --- which I1* certainly is.

Gemma Collins is still pinching herself after being offered the chance to study at one of the world's top universities and $250,000 dollars to help fund it.
The 18-year-old from Layton has been given an unconditional offer to study at Harvard University from September - one of 34 teens to make it through a tough process to win an early place.
And the Ivy League college has also said it will fund her four years of study, with the $244,000 bill being footed by benefactors to the university.
The teen competed with 1,200 others to win one of 150 places with charity the Sutton Trust, and then in the first 34 to be offered an unconditional place.
She is one of 992 offered the early place, out of the 4,692 from across the world who applied.
She said: "I was so shocked, I couldn't believe it. It's life changing really."
Gemma, of Carleton Avenue, is setting the bar high as the first in her family to go to university.
Last summer, the Blackpool Sixth Form student was one of 150 students selected for a summer school in the US, spending a week living on campus at Yale University and visiting a number of other American universities.
She said: "Before that I was interested but didn't think it was realistic or thought it'd be affordable.
"When I visited Harvard it just felt right and I really wanted to go. I know I'll be at home there."
Gemma, who is predicted A* and A grades in her English language, English literature, maths, modern history and critical thinking A Levels, hopes to major in history at the college in Massachusetts.
The former Hodgson High School pupil is now busy juggling her studies ahead of A Level exams, saving up money while working at McDonalds and preparing for an induction trip to the university in April.

Does anyone know who the CD will be on Carnival Dream in October??
Does anyone know who the CD will be on Carnival Dream in October??
It may not have been announced yet. I found that Jase Apps will be there until sometime in September but the next Cruise Director after him isn't listed yet. Do you have a favorite you're hoping for?
Found an update. Carnival Dream Cruise Director will be Chris Williams 8/28-10/23/2016; Jase Apps will be back 10/23/2016-March 2017.
Why is it that Carnival cruisers ask about who the CD will be on their cruise ? I mean, would you change your plans over the CD ? I've never had anyone ask as we were about to board a Norwegian ship, who is the CD? Half the time I couldn't tell you who the CD was while I was on the ship, much less months or a year in advance.
enjoy the cruise
They make announcements on CD's??? I wouldn't know who a CD is from Adam unless it was a CD from a different ship I had been on before.
On John Healds blog and his face book he post who the CD's will be for the seasons. Carnival has some very loyal guest that have favorite CD's and will go on a cruise with the CD that they like.
That's not a bad idea to get that information. I would like to meet up with he CD who danced with me on the Princess cruise. She was a good teacher.
I'd like to see the CD hang out in the cigar lounge more often. Just because.
I'd like to see the CD hang out in the cigar lounge more often. Just because.
The only CD I remember from a previous ship was Wee Jimmy. The main reason I remember him is because he is part Scottish & sometimes wears a kilt around the ship. He was on my first cruise on the Glory in 2007 & on the Conquest last year.
How do you find out who the cruise director will be? Do you directly ask the company?
We just did our first ever cruise on Carnival ... and actually not so much the cruise director, but, I'd love to know where the assistant cruise director will be going.
And for those who are curious, yes I may change my plans accordingly :) LOL..

Over the past few weeks it's become apparent dad has exceeded my care abilities. He is coughing / gagging more while eating, food already lightly pureed, liquids at near honey consistency. He also has issues with just his salvia. I am afraid he'll choke some night and I won't hear it and he'll not hit his "call button". I can't stay awake 24/7. I am also experiencing caregiver burn-out, even the respite care breaks don't help. Trying to balance dad's increasing care and my family's needs isn't working anymore, they are both getting short changed so to speak.
Dad has been 3rd on the list to the local state VA facility for months with nothing changing in sight. I toured several nursing home facilities and have decided to go private till a room/bed open at the VA.
Dad and I had a long talk about this and he agrees it's time. We had also planned on him going and even started the application process to state VA place about a year ago.


text: These retailers most likely close some of their stores. I think the main problem with any brick and mortar store is they cannot stock everything in their stores. Here's the problem though - they often don't have warehouses either. So when you need something that isn't a fast-mover they need to order it right from the manufacturer. It takes much too long to get it that way. You can buy almost anything now from the dreaded Amazon, and usually get the item in a reasonable amount of time, and much cheaper. I hate to order from them since I found out they're less than 2A-friendly (but they do allow the sale of plenty of accessories) but I have no choice. I live in a rural area, and I find that many times Wal-mart, Lowes and home Depot don't have what I want or need. And many times the quality just isn't there. And I've found their customer service is outstanding. Only Wal-mart probably has a better return policy - 90 days.

It's been a rollercoaster spring for D.C. United, marked by mixed results and confounding inconsistency. After last week's dispiriting home loss to FC Dallas, both the team and its most visible player are escaping the Beltway -- albeit in diametrically different directions -- to decompress and get a fresh perspective on a trying season.
Freddy Adu, who turned 16 on Thursday, journeys to Holland with the Under-20 U.S. national team as they prepare for the World Youth Championships, while the rest of the United squad has flown to Colorado for a bit of relaxation at club owner/operator Phil Anschutz's Eagles' Nest ranch.
Anschutz, whose AEG company also operates four other MLS franchises as well as the NHL's Los Angeles Kings, annually invites all his teams to the rural escape, which at 45,000 acres is larger than the entire Washington suburb of Arlington, Va.
United's players conducted a light training session at the ranch Wednesday, then had some free time for fishing, golfing, horseback riding and even skeet shooting. On Thursday the squad continued on to San Jose, where they face the Earthquakes on Saturday night in an important match for both teams.
Despite the well-timed R & R, head coach Peter Nowak dismissed suggestions that his side is suffering from fatigue.
"This is professional soccer," he said. "In England they play every second day, in Germany they play every third day. They have Champions League games, they have national team games. You cannot just say, 'Oh, I am tired.'
"There is no such thing as tired. Either you are out of shape, or you are not fit," he continued, then uttered words that may run a chill down his players' spines. "We don't train twice a day -- maybe we should."
Meanwhile, Adu looks to take a more prominent role with the U-20s as they prepare for a demanding tournament schedule.
"On that team, I'm more of a leader, and things go through me," he said. "So I'm ready for that. It's not going to be easy making that transition, but playing on a team that I played on in the last U-20 World Cup, I've got to bring that experience to the table."
|"I told him before he left, you have to be the guy who takes the responsibility ... make sure that everyone around you is going to understand what kind of person you are. And I told him, I want to see an MVP trophy when you come back."
|-- D.C. coach Peter Nowak to Adu
"It's a tough group," said Adu. "If we get out of our group, we're in good shape, man. That's the most important thing."
Adu's eagerness to rejoin Sigi Schimid's U-20 squad is tempered with regret at missing three weeks of MLS action at a crucial time in United's campaign.
"Whenever you get the chance to represent your country in a World Cup, it's a great honor. It's a chance to show the world what you've got. I'm looking forward to it," he said. "I do wish, though, that I would be able to stay here and play with D.C. a little bit more, because this is an important stretch for us right now."
The teen star, who will have more freedom in his attacking role with the national team, hopes that a strong performance in Holland can jumpstart what has so far been an erratic 2005 season.
"Right now, I feel like I'm in a funk or something," said Adu. "But that helps your confidence, when you go out there and you're moving, getting a lot of touches on the ball, and you do your thing. And the good thing is, I am allowed to do my thing on that team, so that's great. Hopefully when I come back, I'll be in good form."
Adu's club coach has made no secret of his high expectations for the phenom's European adventure.
"I told him before he left, you have to be the guy who takes the responsibility," said Nowak. "PKs, free kicks, it doesn't matter. When the time comes, and the game is difficult ... make sure that everyone around you is going to understand what kind of person you are. And I told him, I want to see an MVP trophy when you come back."

January and the PLA: What's Next?
The Diplomat's David Axe writes about Owen Cote Jr., a naval analyst at MIT who like many Western experts has come to expect another dramatic display from the People's Liberation Army's on January 11:
Many Chinese use their culture's traditional calendar for ceremonial events such as weddings. But for official events, China uses the same Gregorian calendar as most of the rest of the world. In Mandarin, "January 11" is usually spoken as "1-1-1." Sets of three are considered lucky in Chinese numerology.
"Every year they [the PLA] do something interesting on that day," Cote notes. On January 11, 2007, the Chinese military launched a rudimentary anti-satellite weapon and destroyed a target satellite – a demonstration of the PLA's intention to counter U.S. space developments. On January 11, 2010, the PLA tested another anti-satellite missile. And January 11, 2011, marked the debut flight of the J-20, China's first stealth-fighter prototype.
What surprise might the PLA have in store for the coming year? "People have speculated that the long-awaited Anti-Ship Ballistic Missile test against a ship is coming in 2012," Cote says. He's referring to the DF-21D, a version of China's Medium-Range Ballistic Missile optimized for destroying warships, particularly American aircraft carriers. In development for many years, the DF-21D has yet to be tested in realistic conditions. The missile apparently relies on satellites and aerial drones for targeting.
Just last week, China began to operate a homegrown alternative to America's GPS technology, which it intends to grow and enhance through the launch of additional satellites in 2012. See also CDT's coverage of last week's white paper outlining China's long-term space plan, a move many believe intended to allay fears that its space ambitions are motivated by military priorities.

Asian Energy Outlook to 2020 : Trends, Patterns and Imperatives of Regional Cooperation
With booming economic growth Asia will play increasingly important role in global economic and energy matters. World primary energy consumption is projected to expand at an average annual growth rate of 2.1 percent by 2020. About 70 percent of the increase would be accounted for by non-OECD member economies, two thirds of which are from the Asian region. The increase in demand for oil in Asia will most likely amplify the dependency on shipments from other regions (particularly the Middle East). Ensuring energy security would therefore turn out to be a vital task. In Asia (particularly East Asia), the achievement of the three Es (economic development, energy security, and environmental preservation) could no longer be viewed as a task to be addressed by each economy separately. Instead, it should be approached through regionwide cooperation - a goal of common interest.

That Western Skyline - The Dawes
This is wrong, but it works for me. Corrections are definitely welcomed if not required.
chorda A Bm D A
[A]Oh, Lou- I'd like to [Bm]let you know... [D]that I do not feel [A]welcome
All the birds, the trees, the [Bm]falling snow, [D]no they were not made for [A]me
And all this is where her heart resides... we met in California
She saw cities, promise reaching through my eyes, and she turned her self away
[D]Well how I curse that western [A]skyline
[D]And yet I thanked it for my [A]start
[D]Oh Lou, though my [A]dreams did [D]not come [Bm]true... [D]no they only came a[A]part
So I followed her here to Birmingham... where the soil is so much richer
And though my aching pride might guide my hand, she did not ask for me to come
So I wait for her all through the day, as if I wait for her surrender
And every time I get her to look my way, she says I'm not where I belong
But I watch her father preach on Sundays
And all the hymnals of my heart
But oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true; no they only came apart
[C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [D]oh
[C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [E]oh
[C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [D]oh
[C#m]Ohhhh, [A]oh [E]oh [A]oh [E]oh
All the snow fall this time of year, it's not what Birmingham is used to
I get the feeling that I brought it here, and now I'm taking it away
But let's share one more drink together
Before I go reload my car
An oh, Lou no my dreams did not come true- no they only came apart
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Take me home...
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
I've watched quite a few videos of Taylor playing this song. Its not an easy song to play the way he plays it but it is in standard tuning.
You can see my tabbed version of the song and a few other Dawes songs that I thought were posted incorrectly online at www.thirdstringshirts.com/tab.
