JACKSON, Mississippi — The state agriculture commissioner says no people or animals were killed or seriously injured in a large fire at the Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum in Jackson.
Commissioner Cindy Hyde-Smith says it was not immediately clear what started the fire Thursday evening.
She says a maintenance shop and barnyard were destroyed.
Footage shot from a helicopter for WLBT-TV showed flames shooting high into the sky. Jackson firefighters were battling the blaze.
The museum is near Interstate 55 and another busy road in north Jackson. The fire was burning during rush hour as thousands of commuters drove home.
The tourist attraction has dozens of buildings, many of them wooden. They include historic wood buildings set up like an old-fashioned small town.

Born in Mongolia and trained at Perm Ballet School, Russia, Sarnai performed for 16 years as a ballet soloist, is a fully qualified Royal Academy of Dance (London) registered teacher and has now been teaching for two years.
Sarnai, said: "I am a classically trained ballet dancer and spent six years as first soloist at the Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia before moving to Blackpool in 2001to join Stageworks productions. For the next 10 years I was a soloist performing in Eclipse and several of their prestigious productions.
"It has always been my dream to open my own academy and pass on my passion for ballet to a new generation. My goal is to deliver exciting and fun lessons to children to help inspire them, improve their physical well-being, school learning and concentration.
"Thanks to expert support from Blackpool Council's Get Started team, I have gained vital knowledge as well as gained the confidence to open my business and make this venture a success for myself and my family.
"The team has supported me from day one and recently assisted with training on how to gain online and social media presence. It makes such a difference when you are a sole trader to know someone is there for you."
Cllr Mark Smith, Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Enterprise and Economic Development, said: "Sarnai's academy is providing another boost to the ever-growing creative scene in Blackpool. She has achieved her ambition to launch her own business which shows that it is possible to turn what you love doing in life into something that you can do for a living.
"The last twelve months has seen scores of people helped by the Get Started team. I would urge anyone thinking of setting up their own business to get in touch with them to see how they can help.

My grandmother was a huge influence on my life. She was born in 1892 in Coffey, Missouri and was raised on a farm. Circa 1915 she moved to the San Francisco Bay area, raised my father in Berkeley, California and spent her last 25 years in an in-law unit attached to my family's house in Orangevale, California. Grandma told me stories of life on the farm, which I idolized and helped create my obsession with the "Little House" series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. She read to me, taught me math facts, taught me how to cook and clean and let me do her weekly grocery shopping. Because of that, my obsession with the food market started at a young age. Grandma had me cook dinner once a week. For unknown reasons, she introduced me to Shake'N Bake … [Read more...]
Kraft Fresh Take, Italian Parmesan recipe, flavor review
Stride Tropical Trance, artificially flavored sugar free gum, Flavor Review
Be careful,because Stride Tropical Trance will hold you captive for a half hour. Tropical Trance has high flavor impact that lasts at least 20-30 minutes. This gum is shocking: high in sour, sweet, tropical flavor and cooling sensation. I'd describe the flavor as a very creamy mango with orange, pineapple, green cucumber and floral notes. The creamy notes are very high and I much prefer this gum after those flavor notes have dissipated. Twenty minutes into chewing Tropical Trance, I find it to be a delicious fruitty berry gum that is cooling. Since I've spent almost 20 years in the flavor business , I do not really like highly flavored food items. I feel I can taste the individual flavor aromatics. In this case it is a lactone, perhaps … [Read more...]
Jet-Puffed Mallow Bits, Vanilla & Peppermint Flavor Review

Mallow bits come with serving suggestions: sprinkle on hot chocolate or ice cream, but the are a tasty treat on their own. The Peppermint ones are naturally flavored, beautifully colored, perfectly balanced and perfectly flavored. I'm in awe. The vanilla mallow bits use artificial flavor and are yummy at first, but leave a bitter aftertaste if over consumed. Still, I'm impressed. Perhaps I shouldn't have over consumed, … [Read more...]
Wheat Thins Sweet Cinnamon Limited Edition review
Tis the season. Along with the holidays come mint, cinnamon, and egg nog flavored goodies. Wheat Thins is celebrating by stocking the shelves with a sweet cinnamon flavored cracker. My first thought was, Wheat Thins are so delicious, why ruin them? After a bit, I concluded that the slight sweetness of a wheat thin cracker might go well with cinnamon and sugar a decided to buy some. Strangely enough, cinnamon sugar and wheat are a nice flavor combination. As one reviewer stated, like crossing a churro with a wheat thin. I agree.http://www.phoood.com/weblog/archives/000397.html When I first put a cinnamon flavored wheat thin in my mouth I get a nice burst of cinnamon & sugar enhanced with a slight salty character.

Kraft Philadelphia Cooking Creme Original Review
Remember hearing about Kraft cooking creme last Spring? Kraft advertised to use it to prepare easy/tasty meals. Since I only really use cream cheese for frosting and bagels, I didn't buy any. Recently, for convenience, I decided to get some as an alternative to a roux cheese sauce I serve on spinach ravioli for my kids. My girls love the cooking creme sauce. All I did was lightly microwave a few spoonfuls and mix it with their spinach ravioli and they ate it up (no fuss, lots of compliments and no pestering them to eat their food). Kraft cooking creme tastes exactly like cream cheese. The only difference seems to be a smoother texture and saltier taste. I'm curious how cooking creme differs from cream cheese. The USDA has a standard for … [Read more...]
Kraft Homestyle Macaroni & Cheese Dinner Review
Kraft macaroni & cheese is a staple of in our house. I am not proud of that fact, but it's the truth. I am also saddened to admit that my family prefers boxed Kraft macaroni and cheese to my homemade macaroni and cheese. When Kraft put out the Homestyle version, I did not see the need for our family to buy it. However, when I looked at the ingredients closer I realized that the sauce in the regular box style is basically artificial colors and milk proteins. Contrary to that, the sauce in the Homestyle version is composed of 4 cheeses (Colby cheese, Parmesan cheese, Asiago cheese and cheddar cheese) and natural extracts for color. It was worth a try. In the Homestyle pouch, came 3 separate bags along with macaroni. The macaroni … [Read more...]

A new toll system will be put into operation on April 23rd. This stream lined toll collection takes advantage of automated camera surveillance allowing for the recording of license plates.
Automatic billing will come via the regular mail for those without EZ Pass. Those with EZ Pass, will continued to be billed as already setup by account holders. Review this video from the NY Bridge Authority for a quick explanation of the accounting system to be used for billing.
The trek from Orange, Rockland, Westchester, Ulster and other surrounding areas will be faster. Not stopping or slowing down to pay tolls moves traffic along at normal highway speeds which works well for all those traveling over the Hudson River at the Tappan Zee Bridge.

Welcome to Episode 81 of The Monica Kade Podcast. Today we're talking with Kate Northrup. She's an entrepreneur, bestselling author, and mother, who discovered that her "on purpose" work and dream are to support ambitious, motivated and successful women to light up the world without burning themselves out in the process.
Kate's genuine nature, humorous soul and light-heartedness around the ups and downs of her life are what makes her so relatable. She's one of those rare people you meet and immediately feel like putting on the kettle so you can chit-chat over tea.
In this conversation, we also talk in-depth about her latest book, Do Less: A Revolutionary Approach to Time Management for Busy Moms. And I have to say, it's been one of my favourite reads this year. There were so many moments where I was saying, 'Yes. OMG. YES!' The book found me in a time where I needed to 'Do Less' and honour my body's needs so I could move forward with what I loved.
What I love most about this book is its simple message: BE PRESENT. Go moment by moment.
If you're like the many women in Kate's community and me, sometimes you get too focused on all the to-do's each day, that you forget to BE.
This book is a way to slow down, get clear on what truly matters—to you—and execute on only that.
If you only pick up one book in 2019—to read, of course—pick Do Less. I cross my heart you won't be disappointed. A read for all mothers and businesswomen.
Let's build a world where busy isn't glorified, and productivity and results aren't tied to worth.
Learn About:
- Where the 'Do Less' approach came from
- Dispelling the myth around productivity = worth
- Her thoughts on parenting and running a business without it all falling apart
- To-do lists and the 3 vital questions Kate asks herself before ANYTHING makes the list
- How slowing down and making space impacts your creativity
- What happens when you don't honour your body and put business first
- The low-down on why sleep is CRUCIAL to being productive
- Some scientific facts on why you must get your sleep time in
- A funny story where I fought my need to sleep and why Kate's book was a strobe light saying, 'Girl go to sleep!'
We get personal with our signature questions
- Sunset or sunrise and why?
- If you could attempt another career what would you love to try?
- What does being your best look like to you?

For a month I've been unable to log into BU Faculty Link or other Kerberos-protected sites with Chrome, my default browser. I deleted all passwords saved in Chrome and disabled its auto login features but the BU network still keeps me out. I worked around it by using Firefox to access these sites, then today BUWorks, the portal for payroll, HR, and other employee functions also failed to operate with Firefox 7 and IE 9. A bit of digging revealed that BUWorks officially does not operate with either–a pain if you keep browser software up-to-date.

It's also frustrating to have a MAC sometimes because certain programs don't work on Firefox, where I want to save my password. I also dislike the fact that I can't save my BU Kerberos password on Blackboard or StudentLink.↓

For all you frugal frogs out there feeling jumpy about paying for that "extra protection" on your Anti-Virus program, here is some information that might help with that decision.
Personally I run two programs on my laptop, AVG and Avast, both on the free plan. That means on the "upgrade" screen that always keeps popping up to remind me to buy the "good" version, mine is the one with only one check next to it while the "good" version is the one with ALL the checks.
If you are unsure about whether to pay that $50 clams for the "good" version, there is a good reason to hesitate. AVG, or Anti Virus Guard, used to be free with all the protection available. Then it was bought out and was offered at a price, but what happened to the protection? You might have noticed the pop-up feature, and it pops up once per day for one month each year, all this is designed to make you buy the better version.
The free antivirus kit has less protection now, it has an outdated search tool for rootkits, which is malware that enables continuous access to a computer. Apparently the older free version 7.5 can search and root-out rootkits, but the newer version ?lacks any ability to do anything like protect your computer from such a threat, which is a dangerous one.
Are you thinking what I am thinking? If this trend of taking off protection on the free versions continues, then that so called anti-virus will no longer be free, it will cost you a crashed PC!
The recommended version of AVG includes online and identity protection, anti-spam, and enhanced firewall, along with the basic free version features of High Speed Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware with auto updates and LinkScanner for safe searching.
In a test run by PC World who were also concerned with this question, the results came in with AVG at number 3, Avast at number 2, and Avira AntiVir Personal came in at number 1 for detection, disinfection, and speed. The test was run through a program AV-Test based in Germany, and these three along with Microsoft Security Essentials, who came right behind AVG in the rankings, PC Tools, Comodo, Panda Cloud, and ClamWin.
That old adage comes back with "nothing is free". If you want the best protection from those viruses, spam, and malicious software that is constantly attacking people's computers, then you better whip out the dollars and pay up. It is unfortunate that there is no?altruistic?company out there offering it's security for free, like Microsoft Security Essentials is boasting, but that is reality. I just checked my AVG's status, and it told me LinkScanner and other "paid for" features are running smoothly. Interesting, very interesting how they offer this for a price yet it tells me I can use it for free.
The decision is yours, the information that Anti-Virus programs gives you is very confusing, so consulting with others is strongly recommended to get a good opinion on the right program.

Indoor track: Trumbull Eagles excel at Wintergreen Invitational
Recommended Video:
Trumbull High track teams took home top honors in four events at the Wintergreen Invitational held at Southern Connecticut State University on Friday, Dec. 30, with 13 teams competing.
"We also placed many athletes in the top six," said Trumbull coach Jeff Klein. "Overall we added ten new qualifiers for the FCIAC championship meet as well as seven for the Class LL meet. The boys and girls each had five FCIAC qualifiers while the boys had four for the state meet and the girls three."
Field events
"Following up on her FCIAC qualifying throw in New York (at the North Shore Invitational) , Jamie Maresca came back today to improve by over two feet (throwing 29 feet 11 inches)," Klein said. "That toss on her final throw of the day was good for first place overall and was an LL meet qualifier.
"In the boys pole vault, Zach Iannucci also reached the LL meet standard. After jumping ten feet in New York on Monday (dec. 27), Zach came back to jump ten feet six inches while placing fourth in the competition.
"Dan Clark, competing for the first time this year threw the shot (35 feet 9 inches) to take fourth place in the event. His throw qualified him for the FCIAC meet.
"Our sprinters had a strong day, as we had runners reach three of the four finals. The girls 55 meter hurdles was first. Sara Carlson and Abigail Johnson both had strong finishes in the prelims as they had the fifth and sixth fastest times of the day to reach the finals. Sara ran 10.68 while Abigail had a nice improvement over her time Monday to finish in 10.89. Placing eighth overall in the meet was Nicole Majette, running 11.29 in her preliminary heat.
"In the finals Carlson improved to an impressive time of 10.22 to move up on her seeding place and finish fourth. That time qualified her for the LL meet. Johnson improved as well running 10.78, just short of the FCIAC standard while taking home sixth place.
"In the girls 55 meter dash, all three of our runners had terrific performances. In the prelims it couldn't have been any closer — Erica Woolen was seventh in 8.13 seconds, Meilena Pang Khloeum was eighth in 8.14 and Olivia Okoroafor was ninth in 8.15, as they all reached the semifinals.
"Up first in the semis was Woolen, who improved to 8.08 to finish second in her heat. Pang Khloeum was next, finishing in 8.21 to take 10th place overall. In the final semifinal, Okoroafor sped to the finish in 8.07, just ahead of Woolen's time to take the last spot in the finals, where she placed sixth in 8.10. All three of these runners qualified for the FCIAC meet, just hundredths off the LL standard.
"On the boys side, Colin McLevy who is usually a jumper tried his hand at the dash today. It worked out very well as he ran 6.97 seconds in his prelim to take second in his heat and qualify for the semifinals. Jeremy Cole also ran well as he made the semis with a time of 7.33 in his first ever track race.
"In the semis, McLevy improved to 6.91 to reach the finals. Cole improved as well with a time of 7.31 to take 17th place overall. McLevy ran a 6.96 in the finals to take fifth in the event. His result was both an FCIAC and LL qualifying time while Cole narrowly missed the FCIAC standard.
"Nigel Hayes was our top boys hurdler today, placing tenth in the event with a time of 9.80. Finishing 13th was David Yankura running 10.42 over the barriers.
3000 meters
The distance race was another strong event for the Eagles, with an event win on the boys side. Coming off a strong initial cross country season and setting a school record in the 1000 meters Monday, Tyler Rubush came back to take top honors in a very competitive event.
With a group of four runners racing neck-and-neck for the first 2600 meters, Rubush took the lead with two laps to go and accelerated to the finish to win in 9:19. Rubush had placed 51st in the State Open meet in November, while the three runners right behind him at Wintergreen had placed seventh, 34th and 41st.
Also running well were Beau DeMelo and Jack Stachura, who ran close together throughout to take 11th and 12th out of 57 competitors in the 3000 meters. Their times of 9:47 and 9:49 met the FCIAC standard and fell just short of qualifying them for the LL meet.
Other top Eagle results in the event were from Tejas Kulkarni (20th in 10:12), Matthew Seuch (24th 10:24) and freshman Nick Klaiber (25th in 10:27).
On the girls side of the event, Kaley Fasoli was the top finisher placing 10th with a time of 11:56. She had already qualified for both the FCIAC and LL meets on Monday with an 11:40. Qualifying for the FCIAC meet were freshman Aly Zaffina, who placed 11th overall in her first attempt at the distance, and Sophia Hopwood, who was 13th with a time of 12:00. Just short of qualifying was freshman Meghan Becker in 21st running 12:28.
Spring medley relay
A late addition to the meet was a good one for the team as both the boys and girls placed first in this event. The boys went first, with Colin McLevy continuing his strong sprinting day with a fast lead off 200 meters. He handed off to Nigel Hayes running another 200, who brought Trumbull in for the third leg in second place. Running the 400 meter leg, Tyler Gleen moved into the lead with a 50.6 second split, handing off to anchor Sean O'Hagen for the final 800 meters. In the lead with no one to pace him, O'Hagan ran a very good leg to widen the lead and bring the team home in an LL qualifying time of 3:49.
On the girls side, Abigail Johnson led off the first 200 meter leg well, handing off to Meilena Pang Khloeum for the second 200. Sara Carlson stepped up from the hurdles to handle the 400 meter leg before handing off to anchor Kate Romanchick. She pulled away from the rest of the field to win convincingly, as the team ran a time of 4:45 to also qualify for the LL meet.

Author, bioethicist and euthanasia/assisted suicide expert Wesley J. Smith writes:
[Kevorkian's] driving motive was always obsession with death. Indeed, as he described in his book Prescription Medicide, Kevorkian's overriding purpose in his assisted-suicide campaign was pure quackery, e.g., to obtain a societal license to engage in what he called "obitiatry," that is, the right to experiment on the brains and spinal cords of "living human bodies" being euthanized to "pinpoint the exact onset of extinction of an unknown cognitive mechanism that energizes life." ...
[W]hile the media continually described him as the "retired" doctor who helped "the terminally ill" to commit suicide, at least 70 percent of his assisted suicides were not dying, and five weren't ill at all according to their autopsies. It. Didn't. Matter. Kevorkian advocated tying assisted suicide in with organ harvesting, and even stripped the kidneys from the body of one of his cases, offering them at a press conference, "first come, first served." It. Didn't. Matter. And as noted above, he wanted to engage in ghoulish experiments. It. Didn't. Matter. He was fawned over by the media (Time invited him as an honored guest to its 75th anniversary gala, and he had carte blanche on 60 Minutes), enjoyed high opinion polls, and after his release from prison was transformed by sheer revisionism into an eccentric Muppet. He was even played by Al Pacino in an HBO hagiography.
Kevorkian was disturbingly prophetic. He called for the creation of euthanasia clinics where people could go who didn't want to live anymore. They now exist in Switzerland and were recently overwhelmingly supported by the voters of Zurich in an initiative intended to stop what is called "suicide tourism." Belgian doctors have now explicitly tied euthanasia and organ harvesting. In the U.S., mobile suicide clinics run by Final Exit Network zealots continue unabated despite two prosecutions, as voters in two states legalized Kevorkianism as a medical treatment.
Time will tell whether Kevorkian will be remembered merely as a kook who captured the temporary zeitgeist of the times, or whether he was a harbinger of a society that, in the words of Canadian journalist Andrew Coyne, "believes in nothing [and] can offer no argument even against death."

This mixed breed lad is about three years old and has a beautiful brownish red colour. His stay at the shelter is beginning to stretch out, mainly because he obviously has some hound in him. However, looks can be deceiving and in this case are. Like all dogs, this poor guy is just looking for someone to love him, so that he can love them back. He has impressed everyone at the shelter with how well behaved and good natured he is and how much he wants to please. According to the shelter he is "one of the best behaved dogs to be at the shelter in a very long time."
For information please call the South Dundas Animal Shelter at 613-543-2980. There are no adoption charges, however, donations of food or cash (used to purchase food) are needed.

The reality TV celeb took to social media yesterday to warn her followers about the importance of watching their birth control pills' expiration dates! It is safe to say that everyone was shocked and intrigued at the same time! Was Farrah Abraham talking from experience?
She then admitted that she had a pregnancy scare, sharing a video on Snapchat in which she said: 'Girls watch your expiration dates and that's on your birth control. I am going to tell you a little bit later because I got to go take care of it.'
However, a lot of her followers are theorizing that she was not actually revealing something that happened to her but was instead slamming Teen Mom co-star and sworn enemy Amber Portwood.
As you may already be aware, Portwood is currently expecting a baby by her new boyfriend!
And it looks like the speculations make a lot of sense considering Farrah also posted a screenshot of an article talking about her nemesis.
The said article was about Portwood finding out about her unplanned pregnancy after taking a test.
But a lot of her haters did not get the diss so they commented things like: 'Please for the Love of God stop procreating!'
Another user shared that she 'got her tubes tied.' But did she?
Farrah is a single mother of 8-year-old daughter Sofia and is also notoriously active in the porn industry – which is what got her fired from Teen Mom!
The celeb has made it very clear in the past that she is proud of the fact that, unlike many of her co-stars, she had no more accidental kids.

Osvaldo kicked out of Italy squad after tantrum
By app
AS Roma forward Pablo Osvaldo has been axed from Italy's squad for the Confederations Cup in Brazil following his tantrum in Sunday's Italian Cup final, the country's football federation (FIGC) said on Tuesday.
Osvaldo, joint third top scorer in Serie A this season with 16 goals, had been included in a 31-man squad for this week's training camp before becoming the latest victim of coach Cesare Prandelli's strict code of ethics.
FIGC President Giancarlo Abete told the ANSA news agency: "All decisions are made by Prandelli and the spirit of the ethics code, which ensures respectful behaviour in the Italian team, is well-known.
"Osvaldo will remain out of the squad for the Confederations Cup but that does not rule him out of future involvement [with Italy]."
Television cameras caught Osvaldo apparently insulting Roma coach Aurelio Andreazzoli at the end of Sunday's 1-0 defeat by local rivals Lazio. He was left out of the starting lineup and brought on as a substitute for the last 15 minutes.
"There's nothing new in Osvaldo making a scene when the camera is filming him," Andreazzoli told reporters. "But, in private, he's a bit of a whiner. It's his problem, not mine."
Prandelli, who has abandoned Italy's defensive style, has not been afraid to bar players because of bad behaviour with their clubs.
In February, Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci was left out of the Italy squad after angrily confronting match officials at the end of a Serie A game.
Prandelli has twice barred AS Roma midfielder Daniele De Rossi for his conduct and striker Mario Balotelli also fell foul of the national team's rules when he was at Manchester City.

What to Do in the Miniature Garden When New Fairies Arrive
Hurrah! It is a warm and bright morning, and you are out digging in the miniature garden. The sun shines down on your miniature plants and fairy garden accessories; there is no better spot to be. The feeling of visiting your oasis when everything is in its place—miniature trees planted, flowers blooming, and fairy houses settled in their appointed areas - is one of the best sensations in the world. That is why it can be a little unsettling and even nerve-inducing to think about introducing a brand-new fairy into the miniature garden that you have already so lovingly crafted, cared for, and positioned "just so." However, there is nothing at all to fear! With the right attitude and a couple of tips, you will be on your way to incorporating fresh fairies and new friends in no time at all.
Fairies with Accessories
The fairy world is populated with wee friends of all types and characters. In your miniature garden, you might have fairies involved in a number of different activities. Some fairies love to garden in the vegetable patch, while others play the day away. Still, others might like to sun themselves on rocks or sit at tea tables. One easy way to incorporate an additional fairy into the miniature garden is to choose one that has a particular scene or fairy garden accessory to go along with it. A loyal canine friend, inspiring a new area themed around pets, and furry pals might accompany a fairy. On the other hand, you may find an adventurous fairy who is swinging from a tire swing. This type of fairy could fit right in with the miniature trees and miniature plants you already have—easy!
Alternatively, you could build an entirely new scene with your latest fairy. Think of one that is creating a sandcastle or holding a fishing pole. You will want to give those fairies a beach or lake in which to play. Fairy garden accessories that are attached or accompanying fairies can make it simple to establish a new area or re-imagine a miniature garden you already have. Choose a fairy who comes in a set with friends or relatives, and you have double the fun.
Expressive Fairies
While some fairies are paired with fairy garden accessories that add interest and excitement, others stand out all on their own. A fairy that is "flying solo" without an accessory or friend can often be extra expressive when it comes to a particular emotion or personality trait. Think of bravery, exhaustion, playfulness, or love. Fairies can exude emotions in the garden that help us share specific feelings and situations with visitors, or even prompt us to connect with our memories, dreams, and beliefs.
To share the good news about your new garden fairy or fairies, you can create a corresponding theme area, add miniature houses for your new residents, or weave the fairies into areas that already exist. To highlight the garden fairy, you could also add a new strain of miniature plants, landscaping materials, or even miniature trees. Let the fairy's expression, personality, or accessory offer inspiration towards finding his or her place in your miniature garden no matter how you plan the space.

Kaspersky Labs has detected a new virus outbreak, caused by Netsky. The worm has several payloads, one of which is it deletes the registry keys of internet worm, Mydoom, which makes a protected PC vulnerable again to the worm.
Kaspersky Labs has detected a new virus outbreak, caused by Netsky.d, the fourth version of the internet worm Netsky (also known as Moodown.d). To date, numerous notifications of infected machines have already been received.
Given this, Kaspersky Labs recommends all users to update their anti-virus protection and to familiarise themselves with the details of this malicious program.
Netsky.d spreads as an attachment to email messages. Infected messages come in a wide range of forms; the worm randomly selects the message heading from 25 possible headings, the message body from a list of six possible texts, and the attachment name from a selection of 21.
The attachment is a standard Exe program, of approximately 17KB, but the attached file will have a fictitious .PIF extension. If a user is thoughtless enough to execute this file, the worm installs itself on the system and begins propagation.
During installation Netsky.d copies itself under the name WINLOGON.EXE to the Windows directory and registers this file in the system registry auto-run key. This ensures that the worm will be activated every time the operating system is started.
In order to send messages, the worm scans files with extensions of the most popular Internet applications (e.g. .wab, .eml, .doc, .html, .msg, etc.), harvests email addresses, and, unnoticed by the owner of the computer, sends copies of itself to these addresses. It should be noted that the worm uses its own inbuilt SMTP-engine, thus avoiding the use of the email client installed on the victim computer. In this way, Netsky.d propagates via 23 proxy servers located across the globe.
Protection against Netsky.d has already been added to the Kaspersky(r) Anti-Virus database.

Upcycled Education

Housing programs have efficiently helped poor mother and father transfer to safer and fewer disadvantaged communities and, in some circumstances, less segregated neighborhoods Despite the power for some of these applications to bring about context adjustments, it appears rather more troublesome to enhance the educational outcomes of kids. Universities should require teaching employees to be certified to show, and particularly certified to design and ship partaking on-line education.

The best has been with us since Plato and Aristotle; it found full expression in Cardinal Newman's Victorian-era The Concept of a College; and it figures in discussions of higher education at this time as schools and universities have grown and remodeled, including many majors outside of the liberal arts.

The Anticapitalistic Mentality
Saturday, Nov 28, 2009
Some more interesting quotes from Mises' The Anticapitalistic Mentality:
People are anxious to endorse the tenets they consider as fashionable lest they appear boorish and backward.
Ruere in servitium, they plunged into slavery, Tacitus sadly observed in speaking of the Romans of the age of Tiberius.
What makes many feel unhappy under capitalism is... that everybody is aware of his own defeat and insufficiency.
To the grumbler who complains about the unfairness of the market system only one piece of advice can be given: If you want to acquire wealth, then try to satisfy the public by offering them something that is cheaper or which they like better... Equality under the law gives you the power to challenge every millionaire. It is—in a market not sabotaged by government-imposed restrictions—exclusively your fault if you do not outstrip the chocolate king, the movie star and the boxing champion.
The characteristic feature of the market economy is the fact that it allots the greater part of the improvements brought about by the endeavors of the three progressive classes—those saving, those investing the capital goods, and those elaborating new methods for the employment of capital goods—to the nonprogressive majority of people.
No technological improvement can be put to work if the capital required has not previously been accumulated by saving. Saving—capital accumulation—is the agency that has transformed step by step the awkward search for food on the part of savage cave dwellers into the modern ways of industry.
A hundred workers in a modern factory produce per unit of time a multiple of what a hundred workers used to produce in the workshops of precapitalistic craftsmen. This improvement is not conditioned by higher skill, competence or application on the part of the individual worker. (It is a fact that the proficiency needed by medieval artisans towered far above that of many categories of present-day factory hands.) It is due to the employment of more efficient tools and machines which, in turn, is the effect of the accumulation and investment of more capital.
Nobody is needy in the market economy because of the fact that some people are rich. The riches of the rich are not the cause of the poverty of anybody. The process that makes some people rich is, on the contrary, the corollary of the process that improves many peoples' want satisfaction. The entrepreneurs, the capitalists and the technologies prosper as far as they succeed in best supplying the consumers.
The people of the United States are more prosperous than the inhabitants of all other countries because their government embarked later than the governments in other parts of the world upon the policy of obstructing business.
The substitution of laissez-faire capitalism for the precapitalistic methods of economic management has multiplied population figures and raised in an unprecedented way the average standard of living. A nation is the more prosperous today the less it has tried to put obstacles in the way of the spirit of free enterprise and private initiative.
Few Americans are fully aware of the fact that their country enjoys the highest standard of living and that the way of life of the average American appears as fabulous and out of reach to the immense majority of people inhabiting non-capitalistic countries. Most people belittle what they have and could possibly acquire, and crave those things which are inaccessible to them.
There is but one means available to improve the material conditions of mankind: to accelerate the growth of capital accumulated as against the growth in population. The greater the amount of capital invested per head of the worker, the more and the better goods can be produced and consumed.
The entrepreneurs and capitalists owe their wealth to the people who patronize their businesses. They lose it inevitably as soon as other men supplant them in serving the consumers better or more cheaply.
What the capitalistic democracy of the market brings about is not rewarding people according to their "true" merits, inherent worth and moral eminence. What makes a man more or less prosperous is not the evaluation of his contribution from any "absolute" principle of justice, but evaluation on the part of his fellowmen who exclusively apply the yardstick of their own personal wants, desires and ends. It is precisely this that the democratic system of the market means. The consumers are supreme—i.e., sovereign. They want to be satisfied...
What counts in the frame of the market economy is not academic judgments of value, but the valuations actually manifested by people in buying or not buying.
It is important to realize that the opportunity to compete for the prizes society has to dispense is a social institution. It cannot remove or alleviate the innate handicaps with which nature has discriminated against many people. It cannot change the fact that many are born sick or become disabled in later life.
The much talked about sternness of capitalism consists in the fact that it handles everybody according to his contribution to the well-being of his fellowmen. The sway of the principle, to each according to his accomplishments, does not allow of any excuse for personal shortcomings. Everybody knows very well that there are people like himself who succeeded where he himself failed. Everybody knows that many of those whom he envies are self-made men who started from the same point from which he himself started. And, much worse, he knows that all other people know it too.
This search for a scapegoat is an attitude of people living under the social order which treats everybody according to his contribution to the well-being of his fellowmen and where thus everybody is the founder of his own fortune. In such a society each member whose ambitions have not been fully satisfied resents the fortune of all those who succeeded better. The fool releases these feelings in slander and defamation. The more sophisticated do not indulge in personal calumny. They sublimate their hatred into a philosophy, the philosophy of anti-capitalism, in order to render inaudible the inner voice that tells them that their failure is entirely their own fault. Their fanaticism in defending their critique of capitalism is precisely due to the fact that they are fighting their own awareness of its falsity.
The gulf between what a man is and achieves and what he thinks of his own abilities and achievements is pitilessly revealed. Day-dreams of a "fair" world which would treat him according to his "real worth" are the refuge of all those plagued by a lack of self-knowledge.
The Anticapitalistic Mentality, Ludwig von Mises, 1956, http://mises.org/etexts/anticap.pdf.

In Frank Herbert's Dune, the character Lady Jessica is under orders from a powerful group to only bear her husband daughters. Eventually, it is revealed that the purpose of this was to ensure that her daughter could be wed to the son of an enemy clan, in order to seal the rift between them.
While such marriages have a medieval feel, it certainly seems to be the case that such unions can unite differing factions and promote the emergence of new political unions. It will be interesting to see how gay marriage changes that dynamic, especially if it spreads beyond liberal democracies. Such unions will not be able to produce biological children – for the foreseeable future – but perhaps they will still serve the role of binding groups together.
How different Dune would have been if Paul Atreides could have wed Feyd-Rautha or Glossu Rabban.

Given the lack of success in stopping the illegal camping in the North Sacramento/Cal Expo area of the Parkway—considered the most likely cause of the recent spate of Parkway fires in that area—allowing the Fire Department to do controlled burns to reduce fire fuel, as reported in this article by Fox40 News, is a sound strategy and one that should be supported, as our organization does.
An excerpt.
Sacramento City Fire Department spokesman Roberto Padilla took Fox40's Ben Deci on a tour of the American River Parkway. After an already intense fire season, he wanted to show us what is there, and what isn't anymore.
"There's acres upon acres and acres of this specific type of fuel load," he said, gesturing to a bramble pile several feet high.
The tour took them through one sooty scorch-mark after another. They are monuments to a wildfire season that has been twice as tough here as it was last summer.
And now Padilla is putting forward an unheard of idea for the Parkway: the Fire Department starting some fires of its own.
"It wouldn't even be acres at a time you're talking about. Just setting a 5′ x 30′ strip and burning that guy off and then doing another," Padilla said.
He's talking about controlled burns to get rid of some of the critically dry fuel that wildfire loves.

Finding plugins for your Bukkit & Spigot servers can be a detrimental part in the success of any Minecraft server. From making sure players have a lag-free experience to keeping the community guidelines and rules in check, it's essential to have a solid list of the best plugins for Bukkit & Spigot servers. Thus we decided to create a top 10 list of the best plugins that you must have on your Spigot server. From grief protection to allowing you to protect your spawn, set warps, and do much more. Thus, let's go ahead and jump on into our list of the top 10 best Bukkit plugins!
10 Best Plugins for Bukkit & Spigot Servers
1) EssentialsX
One of the most versatile and useful plugins to add to a server is EssentialsX. This plugin for Bukkit & Spigot servers is technically a performance enhancement for Essentials with some added tools to improve the experience of a Minecraft Multiplayer server. EssentialsX allows you to customs aspects of the chat, spawn, prefixes/suffixes, and much more.
EssentialsX has quite a few advantages over using the standard Essentials plugin on your server. Some of the added benefits of EssentialsX include:
- Creating Kits for Players
- Controlled Private Messaging
- /Seen Command
- Nickname Color Permissions
- AFK Messages
- /AFK Command
- /Pay Command Confirmation
- Mail Chat Formatting
- Command Cooldowns
- & MUCH More
EssentialsX also allows commands like /Home and /Spawn. If your Minecraft Server utilizes the Vault plugin, you can also set up sign shops, sell items, and have an entire economy for your players.
Download EssentialsX & View More Here: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/essentialsx.9089/
2) WorldEdit
World Edit is a must-have for fast building on a Minecraft server. It allows you to build massive structures, paint the ground with the brush feature, and make incredible server builds with just a few clicks and a few commands. On top of that, World Edit has the ability to give players access and let them only use the items in their inventory.
With 1.14+ World Edit has also become much more efficient and has no problems building huge buildings or importing massive schematics. This is because it was recodded and optimized as much as possible for 1.14+ dropping all of the old inefficient code for much better lag-free solutions.
Download WorldEdit & View More: https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/worldedit
3) World Guard
If you're running a public server, you will run into issues with players griefing spawn, other player's builds, and more. World Guard helps put an end to griefing on servers, which makes it one of the best plugins for Bukkit & Spigot servers around. This plugin also allows you to protect certain regions while still allowing players to have access to specific items in those regions such as chests.
In a spawn, for example, you can allow players to be able to open chests, crates, anvils, etc. while not allowing them to place or remove blocks.
Additionally, if you want players to be able to battle it out in PVP, you can easily set up a region where PVP is enabled, disable fly, and more. To do this, all you need to do is allow the PVP flags in World Guard.
Download World Guard & View More: http://www.enginehub.org/worldguard
4) ShopGUI Plus
Every good Minecraft server has some sort of shop where players can buy and sell items with the server's economy. While you can set up a basic sign shop with EssentialsX easily, players have come to expect a GUI for the server shop. That's where ShopGUI comes into play. ShopGUI Plus allows you to create a shop that players can access no matter where they are located in the server.
ShopGUI Plus is an incredible premium plugin that allows you to give your players easy, graphical shop access. This plugin is also extremely easy to configure. Any items that are in Minecraft can be bought and sold in the GUI through this plugin, which gives your server a more modern aspect and is more interactive for players.
Download ShopGUI Plus & View More: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/shopgui-1-7-1-13.6515/
5) LiteBans
LiteBans is another fantastic premium plugin for Bukkit & Spigot Servers. As we all know, you'll occasionally run into players on the server who are breaking rules or ruining the gaming experience for other players. While the normal ban commands work fine in most cases, it's hard to enforce ban evasion, player history, and make it clear why a player was banned for all admin.
LiteBans takes banning the bad apples on your server to an entirely new level. This plugin allows you to store all of the bans in a MySQL database, which makes it perfect for BungeeCord Network servers. This also allows you to check player alts, ban history, and so much more. Better yet, you can access this information from any server on your network.
This is one of the few plugins for Bukkit & Spigot servers that you can't run without.
Download LiteBans & View More:https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/litebans.3715/
6) Holographic Displays
When a new player comes and joins your server, it can sometimes be confusing from there perspective to know what to do next. Obviously, you can use books or signs, but why not make it fun and easier to read? Maybe you need to put emphasis on a specific rule or command into spawn. Holographic Displays work perfectly in these situations!
We Holographic Displays for nearly everything now. From crate key instructions to basic commands for getting started, we have Holographic Displays set up all throughout our server network to help players know what to do.
This plugin allows you to put text anywhere in your world with the text and format you want. It's completely Bukkit color code compatible, and it's on nearly every public server right now. Holographic Displays let you get your players' attention without spamming the chat with broadcasting all the time.
Download Holographic Displays & View More: https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/holographic-displays
7) SilkSpawners
Spawners are pretty useless most of the time unless a player finds one directly in their claim. SilkSpawners completely changes the game, though. This plugin is extremely simple, and it allows your players to use a Silk Touch pickaxe to mine spawners and pick them up. In return, the players can then place the spawners in mob grinders, factories, etc.
Better yet, to reduce lag you can only allow players with a rank to be able to use SilkSpawners in certain game modes. This not only gives people a reason to upgrade to a rank but also frees up spawners from being used by players who will leave after a few hours of playing.
Download SilkSpawners & View More Here: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/silkspawners-with-api.60063/
Remember the worry-free days of leveling up your Woodcutting skills on Runescape? Well, MCMMO brings a new aspect to Minecraft by adding similar skills. This alone makes it one of the BEST plugins for Bukkit & Spigot servers! Players can level up their skills in everything from woodcutting to fishing to mining and so much more! No matter what it is, there is probably an MCMMO skill for it – including repairing tools!
As you level up, these skills will give you additional perks that will help with that skill. For example, the MCMMO skill Tree Feller allows you to chop down an entire tree with just one hit! The higher your level gets, the higher chance you have at obtaining new/more items from a block!
This also adds a new aspect to your Minecraft server to help get your players addicted to your game and play more! Overall, MCMMO is a fantastic plugin to add to any Bukkit/Spigot server!
Download MCMMO & View More Here: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/official-mcmmo-original-author-returns.64348/
9) GriefPrevention
Stop the griefing with just one plugin! GriefPrevention is targeted at survival-based servers and allows players to claim areas using a golden shovel. After an area is claimed, other players will not be able to place, remove, or use blocks unless trusted by the claim owner!
GriefPrevention takes so much stress out of running a Minecraft server by cutting down on the amount of destroyed player builds and stolen items! It is by far the best anti-griefing plugin available today, and it is a must-have on every Survival server!
Download GriefPrevention & View More Here: https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/grief-prevention
10) ClearLagg
Lag – it's the downfall of almost any server. ClearLagg takes care of a lot of lag situations without ever needing to worry about it. It does this by removing mobs, clearing unloaded chunks, and removing dropped items after a time limit. It also limits a mob's spawn radium among other features.
ClearLagg will also monitor lag and step in with lag reduction measures if your server starts seeing large spikes in usage. If your server runs with more than 15 players at a time, you absolutely need to install ClearLagg to prevent players from experiencing horrible lag spikes.
Lag can easily make a player not return to a server, which is why ClearLagg has made it's way to our list of the best plugins for Bukkit & Spigot servers! It's a must-have plugin for any server.
Download ClearLagg & View More: https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/clearlagg

Big hit: Sports hall by Turkali Architects
Client: Magistrat der Stadt Frankfurt, Sportamt
Architects: Turkali Architekten
Structural Engineering: B+G Ingenieure, Bollinger und Grohmann
Timber Construction: Rubner Holzbau
Location: Goldpeppingstraße 8, 60435 Frankfurt am Main (DE)
The hall in the middle of the 6.5 hectare sports grounds in Frankfurt-Preungesheim is a building that is as multifaceted in character as clear in composition. Located on a slope, it connects the lower, southern part of the grounds with the sports fields to the north. Visually the volume is divided into three horizontal parts, with the lowest layer built into the ground while the upper two project above it.
The podium built in reinforced concrete contrasts with the timber construction and wooden cladding of the upper part of the building. This in turn is divided into a completely closed-off area behind which the hall's load-bearing structure is concealed, a middle zone with numerous large openings, and the main entrance. Visitors coming from the car park in the north-east take this entrance to directly arrive at the grandstand for 200 spectators and part of the changing rooms. A further entrance, namely one for the athletes, is situated in the south and immediately leads down to the court located a storey below.
The ceiling and walls of the hall are clad in non-treated chipboard, while the floors and the deflective walls are coloured similarly to provide the sporting activities a homogenous backdrop. Large expanses of glazing in the entrance area offer views of Frankfurt's skyline. Natural light entering through a perforated band on the long side is diffused evenly throughout the hall, with 45 skylight elements framed in panels of white faced chipboard additionally distributing daylight in the space. In a practical touch the elements forming the skylights also accommodate, radiators, ventilation apertures, loudspeakers, fire detectors, artificial lighting and so on. As a result, the hall in Preungesheim sports park offers a clear-lined appearance both on its outside and inside.
