The Wells 2013 adventure
Pre trip report part one (therell probably be more parts to this ..you know me by now!).
Thought it was about time I posted this since we're well into double digits now!
The cast:
Vikki thats me!
General Disney fanatic. Refuses to do Rock and Rollercoaster until the whole family can ride together (I figure this gives me at least 8 years of saying I cant go on because I have to look after one or both of the children). Love Big Thunder Mountain, Soarin and Test Track. Could happily spend the whole holiday in Epcot given half the chance.
Anthony DH, also known as eeyorewells on here.
Another Disney fanatic. Does every ride but still finds Small World a tad scary (who doesnt?) Compulsive pre trip planner, who has a spreadsheet for everything!
Ben DS, will be 6 when we next go.
Has been spoiled by already having two trips to Disney in his sort life, one in 2009 and one in 2011. He would happily go on any ride. Hes a pretty tall boy, but some of the height requirements will still be a bit too much for him when we go unfortunately.
Ava DD, will be 2 when we next go.
We took her to WDW in 2011 when she was only 7 months old. Something I thought may turn out to be a horrible mistake, but I was fortunately proved very wrong. She was wonderful. We are trying as hard as we can to brainwash her into all things Disney and were doing pretty well I think. She gets very excited when Mee Mou comes on the TV :wink:
So thats us!
When we had Ava, the plan was always to go to WDW in 2013, the 2011 was a bit of a bonus trip for us. It was our 10th wedding anniversary and when discussing what we could do, we both decided a WDW holiday would be ideal.
So of course, when we got home, it was time to plan the next one :wink: We had stayed in SSR in 2011, which I loved, but Anthony found it a bit too big but we had got a brilliant deal on it. We were hoping that the same deal would come out again for 2013, and if it did wed stay at OKW. Our other option was FOFQ. Now, we have a bit of an unwritten rule that we never stay in the same place twice, but wed really loved POFQ so had those as our resort options.
When the deals came out, we discovered that with free dining it didnt make much difference having the full plan at OKW and upgrading from QS at PORQ. For once I told Anthony to make a decision :wink: I knew full well he wanted to stay at POFQ, which of course I was more than happy with anyway. I really didnt mind where we stayed. So Anthony went ahead and booked POFQ for 3 weeks with the upgraded full dining plan. We also got the offer where you get $200 Disney Dollars included, so that was a bonus
After all the excitement of that had calmed down .well, not that it actually did, but once wed got used to it, we started thinking about flights.
We usually just book with Virgin, simple as that. However, we noticed Virgin were getting rather pricey so we looked into other options. We went through going with BA, going through different companies that had Virgin or BA as their flight, all sorts of things. We even thought about doing a split flight to try and save a few pounds. This, of course was all music to Anthonys ears as he got to add more cells to his spreadsheet
We had also decided that we would go a little earlier and stay on I-Drive for a few days and do Sea World and some of the other bits and pieces. The reason being that doing the job we do (were both teachers), is a bit of a double edged sword. On the one hand, we do get 6 weeks off in the summer, which is wonderful, but, since were limited to the summer holidays, the flight prices are astronomical. So, our thought was, that since its costing us so much to go there, well stay for longer.
It was suggested as well that we fly into Tampa as an alternative to going directly into Orlando, and we discovered that this was indeed cheaper. So then we developed our plans to flying there, staying at the beach for a few days, driving up to Orlando and staying on I-Drive, before going to WDW. Yes, this would mean a lot of moving around, but its not that big of a deal really.
So we were pretty much set on that plan. We knew the flights would come out on Sunday 9th September, so Anthony was all set to stay up till midnight to book them (bless him). Then he was playing around with flights on Thursday and spotted some really good prices (a few days before our return date) doing a split flight, stopping in Toronto. As soon as he mentioned this to me I got really excited. I have family in Canada. My grandmas brother and his family live there. Ive not seen them since I was 18 and I spent the summer there before I went to uni. We chat regularly on Skype but hadnt really thought visiting would be something we could do. Anthony had a play around with the Air Canada website and discovered we could spend some time in Canada and then fly on to Orlando without too much extra cost (and it was still cheaper than a direct flight from the UK to Orlando anyway). I got in touch with my uncle who said hed love to have us come stay with them.
So the day before the flights came out, we had my parents over. They live in Cyprus and Anthony was taking them to the airport that afternoon to fly back. We talked through our Canadian plans and they thought it was a great idea. I didnt think anything more of it until later that evening when my dad called from their airport hotel. He told me that when he retired hed decided to give some money to my sister and I. He said my sister had already had hers and he and mum had been thinking about what they could give some to us for. It is important to note that my dad used to be a bank manager, and as a bank managers daughter I am a compulsive saver and very sensible with money. My dad said he wanted to give us some money under the express promise that I was not to put it in a savings account, and that it was to be used for us to definitely go to Canada, and essentially not worry about money whilst we were there. I was totally blown away and promptly burst into tears I couldnt wait to tell Anthony as he was still on his way home from taking them to the airport. Suffice to say, when he got home, he was as pleased as I was. The Canada trip was on!!!!
Anthony stayed up till midnight to book the flights, which didnt come out. He then got up at 3am, and they still werent out. He then got up again at 5am and they still werent out. He then started panicing, but said their call centre opened at 8am, so hed just call then. In the meantime, he had found the flights on another website, but the times werent very good, so I asked him to wait. At the same time, I was on my ipad looking at the flights. Id obviously done it ever so slightly differently as they were in fact out! So Anthony did it on the laptop and got very excited when he went through to the payment screen. It was done! Wed booked them! I then got even more excited when I found out there was no additional charge to select seats. Lovely. I was then hooping around when I discovered they had the option to pre-purchace extra legroom seats for not much money. When wed been in 2011 wed had the bulkhead and a skycot, and were spoiled for legroom, so I wasnt really looking forward to a normal economy seat again. However, these prices were fantastic, so we snapped them up. Since the flights had only just been released we had a great pick of seats too.
So wed done it! Three weeks in Orlando staying at POFQ with the full dining plan, 8 days in Canada, and flights. All done!
In the usual style of my trippies, Ive rambled on so Ill leave it there :wink:

Business Law
Ask a Business Lawyer. Get Business Law Questions Answered ASAP.
Is it possible to be part of the business in any form as an owner? Or any structure?
Last question. I am interested in purchasing a spa: running and managing the non-medical (esthetician, massage). It currently has a medical side as well and that would remain intact (Dr & nurses), however the facility would share receptionists. I currently work and manage the spa and it seems to be the next natural step. Any suggestions or should I just move on to a new business venture?
Dear JudgeLaw,
In this particular business, there is only 1 shareholder on the medical corp. Is it possible that I be assigned as the Assistant Treasuer or Assistant Secretary, yet not a profit charing shareholder? And is the Dr. allowed to hold 100% or would he only be allowed 99%? Thank You!
In this case, where a lay person serves as the assistant sec. or treas., is it required that only the dr. be a shareholder at 100% or may there be a split between a dr. and a RN or like practitioner where the dr. obviously owns 51% or more of the corp.
Yes to which part? 1) the dr has to own 100% in order to allow the assistant sec or treas? 2) the dr. may own 51%, RN 49% and a lay person still serve as the asst treasurer/sec? I understand the "sum of all parts". Clarification as to whether a lay person may still be the assist sec/treas when there is a split such as 51DR/49RN.

I tried searching the forums, but could not find the right search terms to find what I needed, and google has been no help either.
What would you all budget for a self-supported TAT tour. This is just for the tour itself, not for the equipment that I would already have at the start of the tour.
I am planning on a mixture of cheap motel and camping. I have no way to gauge how much it would cost, and food is especially troublesome since I know I would need more calories than on a normal trip.
Thanks in advance for your responses.

The NZ couple who took off after a bank error dropped NZ$10,000,000 in their account have been finked out by a relative's Facebook update, which tipped off authorities that they're in China.
But their chances of being caught have increased after they were joined overseas by Ms Young's sister, Aroha Hurring, who posted details about their location on her Facebook page.Police believe the trio are in China after Ms Hurring foolishly updated her status to say she was drinking the local Asian beer and enjoying the heat.
Her mother Sue Hurring, who runs a hairdressing salon in Blenheim, has been helping police with their inquiries.
"Well, you've got to have a laugh," she said. "It is bizarre.
"She's never pinched a thing in her life. Probably as a little girl, yes, but so honest."

Hegira end of 10th century / AD end of 16th century; probably during the reign of Sultan Murad III (AH 982-1003 / AD 1574–95)Period / Dynasty
Istanbul, Turkey.Description:
This single sheet from a manuscript features, between bands of script, the prophets Moses and Muhammad and the Archangel Gabriel conversing in heaven. Angels, perched on five clouds behind these three principal characters, appear to be listening. The scene portrayed is one from Muhammad's visionary ascension to heaven. Muhammad stands on the right-hand side in a long green robe and turban, and Moses, wearing a long dark red robe, is on the left, in front of his heavenly throne, which is denoted by an inscription in Arabic lettering. Moses is gesturing his hands in speech. Muhammad, with whom he is conversing, stands on the opposite side. A white veil conceals his face, while his hands are hidden in the long sleeves of his gown. The heads of both prophets are crowned with halos, within which their names, written in a black script, can be deciphered. The Archangel Gabriel stands between Muhammad and Moses, turning towards Muhammad. He is characterised by a twin pair of multicoloured wings and a crown. Gabriel already featured in the Old Testament as the gate-keeper of Paradise. As one of two angels standing in the presence of God (Luke 1: 19), it was Gabriel who explained the story of the Messiah (Daniel 8: 16ff.). He was supposed to have announced the wording of the Qur'an to Muhammad. In Sura 2 verse 97 it is written that: Gabriel 'has by God's grace revealed it [the Qur'an] to you [Muhammad] to your heart'.
The text above the three personages, which describes the story, is written in Ottoman Turkish. It includes the account of Muhammad discussing with God the number of daily prayers. Both eventually agreed on five daily prayers. Moses is Muhammad's heavenly adviser and Gabriel is his companion. The direct speech of all those involved is written in Arabic. The text is taken from a biography of the prophet which had appeared from the AH 1st century / AD 7th century on. The generic term for this type of biography is sira, which translates as 'life facts' or 'way of life'. This single sheet probably came from a handwritten work completed for the Ottoman Sultan Murad III (r. AH 982–1003 / AD 1574–95).

In Windows 8 and Windows RT, you have lots of options to help you set up Start in a way that's right for you. You can create groups, show updates on tiles, and move tiles around for better access to your favorite people, websites, and more. Or, you can create a simple Start with just a few choices. Take a few minutes to move and resize tiles to see what works best for you. For more info about Start, see Adding apps, websites, and more to Start.
Pin websites
To add a website to Start (this is also called pinning), open a browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
In Internet Explorer, go to the website you want to pin and swipe down from the top or right-click to open the Address bar.
Enter a name or short description, and then tap or click Pin to Start. The tile is added at the far side of Start.
Some browsers might have different steps or might not support pinning websites to Start. For more info, check Help for the browser.
Pin things you use frequently, like contacts
Open the app you want to use, such as the People app.
Select the item you want to pin to Start.
Tap or click Pin to Start.
Some apps might have different steps or might not support pinning items to Start. For more info, check Help for the app.
Pin apps
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.(If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Search.)
Enter the app name, or scroll until you find it.
Swipe down on or right-click the app to select it.
Remove tiles
On the Start screen, swipe down on or right-click the app, website, or page you want to unpin to select it.
Tap or click Unpin from Start. If you unpin an app, it'll still be installed on your PC, but it won't have a tile on the Start screen anymore. If you unpin a website or page you use frequently, the shortcut will be deleted from your PC.
Rearrange tiles
Slide the tile you want to change either up or down, and then drag it to a new position.
(If you're using a mouse, click and drag the tile in any direction to a new position.)
If you want to quickly move it from one end of Start to the other, drag the tile down to the bottom of the screen. This shows all the tiles at once and makes it easy to move tiles longer distances.
Group tiles together
To start a new group, drag a tile to an open space. When a gray bar appears, release the tile.
Slide and drag or click and drag more tiles next to the first tile.
Name groups
Pinch your fingers together on the Start screen or click the icon in the lower-right corner to zoom out and see all the tiles.
To rearrange the groups, press and hold or click and drag the group, and then move it to a new position.
Tap or right-click the group you want to name, and then tap or click Name group.
Enter a name, and then tap or click Name.
Resize tiles (only available on some tiles)
Swipe down on or right-click the tile you want to change.
Tap or click Smaller or Larger to change its size. (A tile's color and font can't be changed.)
Turn tile updates on or off (only available on some tiles)
Tap or click Turn live tile on or Turn live tile off to change its setting.
Pin desktop apps and folders to the taskbar on the desktop
On the Start screen, swipe down on or right-click the desktop app or folder you want to pin to the taskbar to select it.
Tap or click Pin to taskbar.
If you don't see Pin to taskbar in the app commands when you select an app or folder, then it can't be pinned to the taskbar.

So, I run a website, that among other things serves some files (usually PDFs).
All of these are stored under a specific directory on the server:
Due to storage issues on my VPS I am thinking of getting some S3 or other cloud storage, and mount it as a drive using S3QL/S3FS. Then I will be able to have the pdf_files folder symlinked to the cloud folder and serve those files using that, without any changes on the web app (is that a good plan?)
Now, before doing that, to estimate costs, I need to measure how many file accesses people do, how many times those pdf files are downloaded each month for example. Basically how many times those pdf files are accessed through the webserver.
I'd like to do it on the apache level. What's the best way that this can be done?
e.g.: measuring the bandwidth used by files in that specific folder would also be nice, but estimating the GET requests I'll be doing to amazon is more important.

This category is for topics relating to American rules football, by various measures the most popular spectator team sport in the United States. The American game is played by two opposing teams of eleven on a 100x53 yard field, delinated by a goal line and an elevated set of goal posts at either end. The offense must move the ball, by passing or running, ten yards in four plays ("downs") towards the opponent's goal line in an attempt to score. If the line is crossed, they score "touchdown," worth six points; otherwise, possession is yielded; scoring and possession may be accomplished through various additional means depending on the rules of the game in question. Kicking games were practiced in pre-colonial and colonial times under various rules. The first intercollegiate matchup took place on November 6, 1869 between Princeton and Rutgers Universities, but the distinctive rules of American football developed from the merging of the soccer-like rules adopted by Princeton, Rutgers, Yale and Columbia with those of the rugby-like running game observed by Harvard and McGill in the 1870s and 1880s.

In 1895, when 12 clubs decided to split from the Northern Rugby Football Union, few could have envisaged that 100 years later, the game of rugby league would become the second most popular spectator sport in Britain and spread as far and wide as Australia, New Zealand and even Papua New Guinea. Two teams take part in a game of rugby league with 13 players on each team at "kick off". Each team also have 4 substitutes/replacements available to bring on at any appropriate moment in the game. Each teams "13" is made up of 7 "backs" and 6 "forwards" . The backs are generally regarded as the attacking players and usually have more pace than the bigger more powerful forwards who are usually the "yard" makers. The object of the game is for one team to score more points than the other team. There are 80 minutes in which to do this. A team can score points through scoring a "try" or kicking a "goal".

SPOKANE, Wash. – Patrick Pierre's lifelong passion with the Salish language has been a guide in his life. Recently, it led him to the hectic Pend d'Orielle Pavillion in the massive Northern Quest Resort and Casino.
He seemed a world away, attending the Celebrating Salish 2011 Conference. Pierre had left behind his Greek wife and sweat lodge on the shores of Dog Lake, Mont., driving three hours to be recognized for his extensive work in revitalizing the ancient tribal language.
Amid cutbacks, President Barack Obama is requesting to decrease the allocation to Indian Affairs by nearly $120 million in his proposed 2012 fiscal year budget.
However, Obama's budget proposal, which was released Monday, also includes significant increases allocated to tribal programs in a proposed Strengthening Tribal Nations initiative.
In Obama's plan, Indian Affairs – which includes the BIA and the Bureau of Indian Education – would get 2.5 billion, a decrease of $118.9 million from the previous levels, according to the Department of Interior.
HELENA, Mont. (AP) — The Senate gave preliminary approval Monday to adopt the "Code of the West" as Montana's code.
Senate Bill 216 sponsored by Senate President Jim Peterson deals with the 10-point cowboy code from the book Cowboy Ethics by James P. Owen.
The code includes items such as "Live each day with courage," "Be tough, but fair," "Ride for the brand," and "Know where to draw the line."
The State of Indian Nations is bound in red tape.
Jefferson Keel, president of the D.C.-based National Congress of American Indian, delivered the organization's ninth annual address on Thursday. He urged the federal government to clear the way and allow tribes to participate fully in economic life by invoking rights to natural resource mining on Indian lands.
Hundreds of thousands of notices have been sent out to American Indians this week that could be affected by the $3.4 billion class action settlement Cobell v. Salazar, in which a Montana banker sued the federal government over misspent money accounts.
As ordered by the court, and later approved by the legislative and executive branches, a third party firm has launched an effort to notify the potentially hundreds of thousands of American Indians that might have been affected by the mismanaged accounts.
HELENA, Mont. (AP) — A court-appointed media company has started a campaign to notify hundreds of thousands of Native Americans they may be beneficiaries of a $3.4 billion settlement.
Last month, a federal judge granted preliminary approval of the settlement over mismanaged money accounts held in trust by the federal government for Indian landowners. The settlement is the result of a 14-year lawsuit by Elouise Cobell of Browning, Mont.
ROCKY BOY'S RESERVATION, Montana - A half-year ago, much of the Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation in north central Montana was under water.
Still in recovery mode, the Chippewa Cree tribe is facing years of work just to get back to where they were before the unprecedented flood hit this small reservation in mid-June last year.
Ted Whitford, a Rocky Boy tribal councilman, estimated that the reservation sustained more than $31 million in flood damages.
ST. MICHAELS, Ariz. (AP) — The Navajo Nation Human Rights Commission is holding public hearings to gather input on how to preserve and protect sacred sites.
The first of five meetings will be held Tuesday in Crownpoint, N.M. Navajo citizens will have other opportunities to voice concerns or submit written comments in Fort Defiance, Chinle, Tuba City and Shiprock, N.M.
Hundreds of people on the Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation are still without safe drinking water two weeks after flooding broke the reservation's water lines, tore up roads and forced dozens of evacuations.
The state Division of Water Resources has decided to proceed with a groundwater pumping test at a planned city being built in the desert north of Las Vegas, even though an independent study suggests it could wipe out a federally protected species of fish.

Betsy (Alice Elizabeth Dunkle) Gillies
Oct. 6, 2012
Betsy (Alice Elizabeth Dunkle) Gillies, 84, died Saturday.
She was born Sept. 15, 1928, in Hazleton, the only child of William Fremont and Alice Virginia (Martin) Dunkle. She attended Hazleton High School, and graduated from Wilson College for Women in 1949 where she was elected to the Wilson Honorary Society Candle Club, and studied political science at the School of Advanced International Studies of the Johns Hopkins University, Washington D.C.
She married to the late Donald Bruce Gillies and came to Champaign-Urbana in 1956 where her husband taught computer science at the University of Illinois.
She is survived by a daughter, Anne Elizabeth Gillies; and her grandchildren, Katherine and Lauren Gillies-Rector, of Corvallis, Ore.; and son, Donald William Gillies; and her grandchildren, Liam Wing Gillies and Ryan Chiu Gillies, San Diego, Calif.
She was a founding member of St. Andrews United Church and the Community United Church of Christ, and was also the founding secretary of the Prairie branch of the local Sierra Club. She was a scout leader of Boy Scout Explorer Post 256, sponsored by the University of Illinois Department of Computer Science. She served as a legislative aide and later as campaign manager for State Representative Helen Satterthwaite and was active in other Democratic Party activities.
She served as one of the founding members of the Urbana Park District Advisory Committee (UPDAC), and was active in other environmental groups, as well as the League of Women Voters of Champaign County. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, she fought to stop the Army Corps of Engineers from flooding Allerton Park. She started her UPDAC work in 1971, which planted trees in the Urbana and Champaign downtown areas. Mrs. Gillies had a profound impact on the parks and community in Urbana and Central Illinois.
In 1985, she was first appointed to the Urbana Park Board, and then served as an elected Urbana Park Commissioner from 1987 to 2005. She also was on the Illinois Association of Park Districts (IAPD) State Park Board and traveled to Springfield and Chicago for meetings of the board. Her suggestion became the name of Meadowbrook Park. She advised Clark Lindsay Village to locate adjacent to the park. She created and championed the idea of a Dog Park for North Urbana. All told, Gillies spent 35 years of her life working to improve Urbana and Illinois Parks and Park District Services.
Gillies was employed by the Franklin, Flynn and Palmer law offices and later in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Illinois, first for the Illinois Journal of Mathematics, later as an academic professional for the international Association for Symbolic Logic, and then as Conference coordinator for the mathematics department.
The family requests that instead of flowers, memorial contributions be made to the Urbana Park District for planting in the Meadowbrook Park prairie grove or to a Women's Place.

Steady stream of voters turns out for school referendumPolls open until 8 p.m. at Cape, Mariner, Rehoboth Elementary
A steady stream of voters filed into Cape Henlopen High School throughout the morning after polls opened April 2 for the district's elementary school referendum.
Polls will remain open until 8 p.m. at the high school, Mariner Middle School in Milton and Rehoboth Elementary in Rehoboth Beach.
Sussex County Department of Elections Director Ken McDowell, in the busy lobby of Cape Henlopen High School where four polling machines were on hand for voters, said the turnout appeared strong in the first hour. Bill Carey, who supervises operation of the machines and makes sure they're working well, said more than 200 people voted in the first half hour after the polls opened at 10 a.m.
Voters in favor of building a new 720-student elementary school on Route 24 across from Beacon Middle School agree that the new school is needed to help ease overcrowding at existing four elementary schools.
"I grew up around here, and a new elementary school is needed," said Tricia Ratner of Lewes, who has a high school student at Cape and at Sussex Tech.
Those against the referendum voted no to higher taxes and also questioned whether the district needs to buy more land on top of what it already owns.
"I'm not convinced that it's needed," said Dick McCurdy of Lewes. "Other properties could be utilized."
Voters both for and against the new school agreed that a series of robo-calls sent out asking them to vote against the referendum did nothing to sway their vote.
"It didn't affect my vote," said Charlie Baker of Lewes. "I found it annoying."
In addition to the new elementary school, the $31 million referendum would pay for six new classrooms at both Mariner and Beacon middle schools. The state has agreed to pay 60 percent of total construction costs, leaving residents about $11 million to pay.
The average homeowner with a $250,000 home assessed at $21,546 would pay $59 more a year by 2017. The total tax rate increase would be 27 cents with 10 cents per $100 of assessed property going to capital improvement costs, and another 17 cents for operating expenses. The 10-cent increase would expire after 30 years; the 17 cents would be a permanent tax increase.
McDowell said 5,911 voters cast ballots in the 2006 referendum when voters approved funds for a new high school but voted against funds for a pool. "There were about 1,200 voters in Milton that year and 1,200 in Rehoboth," McDowell said. "The rest were at the high school. We expect this to be the busiest place. That's why we brought four machines this year compared to three last time around."
Putting aside the merits of educating our children well in relatively small classes -- which I think very important -- there is a sentence here which raises important questions:
"The average homeowner would pay $59 more a year by 2017 for a $250,000 home assessed at $21,546."
That $21,546 assessment on a $250,000 home is 6.2% of market value.
A home near the beach recently sold for close to its asking price of $1,350,000. Its assessment was $19,200, and its annual county taxes $707. (The land was assessed at $11,250, and the building, which will likely be removed at a cost of $20,000 or more, at $7,950, so next year, its taxes will drop to $414.) That $19,200 assessment is 1.4% of market value, and next year, it would be 0.8% of market value.
If that property's assessment was 6.2% of market value, it would be $83,700, not $19,200.
So keep in mind that until Sussex County reassesses its land value to current market values, the well-located folks will be paying quite a bit less than their fair share of it.
Not a reason to vote against this expenditure, but something to think about.
Who benefits from these ancient assessments? And who is overtaxed because of them?
County council, where are you?

Several local groups that sued to block state permitting for a new cruise terminal in downtown Charleston will pay the S.C. State Ports Authority $9,300 in legal fees, according to court records.
S.C. Administration Law Court Judge Ralph Anderson III ruled that the group of conservationists, preservationists and neighborhood groups were in violation of court Rule 72.
The rule states that if "the presiding administrative law judge determines that a contested case, appeal, motion, or defense is frivolous or taken solely for purposes of delay, the judge may impose such sanctions as the circumstances of the case and discouragement of like conduct in the future may require."
Anderson also denied the coalition's request to gather more evidence in the case. Anderson's decision could expedite the ports authority's plan to upfit an old warehouse at Union Pier into a cruise terminal for Carnival Cruise Lines. The lawsuit stalled construction.
In December 2012, the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control's Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management issued the permit authorizing the ports authority to make improvements to a building for a new cruise terminal at Union Pier.
The environmental and historical groups filed in February 2013 to contest the merits of DHEC's decision to issue the permit. The groups said DHEC did not extensively review the cruise issue and terminal impacts before issuing the permit.
In March 2013, counsel for the ports authority consulted with the coalitions' counsel saying that the "motion was frivolous" and the ports authority would seek sanctions if the plaintiffs did not withdraw the motion, according to court documents.
The plaintiffs did not withdraw their motion. In May, the Administration Law Court ruled the motion had no basis in law, according to documents.
In the March 3 ruling, the court ordered the petitioners to pay the sanctions to the ports authority by March 13. The petitioners include the Preservation Society of Charleston, the Historic Charleston Foundation, the Historic Ansonborough Neighborhood Association, the Coastal Conservation League, Charlestowne Neighborhood Association, the Charleston chapter of the Surfrider Foundation and Charleston Communities for Cruise Control.
This is one of three lawsuits that have involved the cruise operations in downtown Charleston in recent years.
The state Supreme Court threw out a lawsuit in January that alleged Carnival Cruise Lines' operations in downtown Charleston were a nuisance to city residents.
In September, U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District to redo its study of the permit for the new cruise terminal. Gergel wants the Army Corps to study how the cruise terminal project could affect the residents and nearby historic neighborhoods.

College Hockey:Ohio State Rallies to Tie Ferris State
FSU Wins Shootout Point
COLUMBUS, Ohio — During Saturday's 3-3 tie between the Ferris State Bulldogs and the Ohio State Buckeyes, there were a grand total of 24 minor penalties called, which resulted in a total of 16 different power plays.
One such whistle may have decided the game. With the game tied at three with 11:21 remaining in regulation, Buckeyes' sophomore defenseman Mike Folkes appeared to score his first career goal, but the goal was waived off due to a goaltender interference call on Ohio State's Peter Boyd. Ohio State coach John Markell did not see the call directly, but he was not pleased with the officiating following Saturday's game.
"It didn't surprise me they would call something like that; that is the way the calls were going," Markell said. "It seemed to be some crazy calls that interrupted the flow of the game I thought."
"That was pretty phantom," Buckeyes' forward Zac Dalpe said of Boyd's penalty. "Obviously the ref called it for a reason. It is tough not to get mad at that, but they are just doing their jobs, too."
Ohio State's Sergio Somma committed a checking-from-behind in the final two minutes of regulation, which struck Markell as a call that was not consistent with how the officials were calling the game late.
"Sergio Somma took the two minute penalty and in overtime, our guy got cracked in the back the same way," Markell said. "In fact, (the Ferris State player) jumped in the air. That was just one circumstance; there were probably things the other way. But just be consistent, that is all we ask."
The 3-3 score held up though the end of the third period and overtime, despite both teams having a pair of power plays each.
Ferris State won the postgame shootout, 2-1, in four rounds, with notches from Cody Chupp and Chad Billins for the extra conference point. Both Chupp and Billins went low on Carlson, with Chupp going under his stick side pad and Billins going through Carlson's five-hole. John Albert was the Buckeyes' lone shootout goal scorer.
"It is not a win; (however) we will take the two points," Bulldogs' forward Blair Riley said. "Obviously, the way the standings are set up right now, that is a huge two points for us. For the national rankings, we wanted two wins obviously, and tonight wanted to bounce back and get at least one."
Ohio State won game one of the two-game series 5-3 on Friday night. The Bulldogs outshot the Buckeyes 49-30 in Friday's game.
Ohio State outshot Ferris State in Saturday night's rematch 33-24. Both teams switched goaltenders from Friday night. Dustin Carlson for Ohio State stopped 21-of-24 with his counterpart Taylor Nelson from Ferris State having 30 saves on 33 shots against.
"I would say the quality of opportunities and our chances that we didn't actually get shots off were greater tonight," Ferris State coach Bob Daniels said.
Ferris State scored seven seconds into their first power play of the game 15:07 into the game when Bulldogs' defenseman Matt Case scored his fourth of the season. The shot was a hard slap shot from the blue line that ricocheted off the skate of Buckeyes' defenseman Sean Duddy.
Ohio State had a golden opportunity late in the first period, as they had a five-on-three power play for a total of 91 seconds. Dalpe beat Nelson on his glove side and the puck went off the pipe 23 seconds into the five-on-three. The goal judge's lamp was turned on, but the referees reviewed the goal on video to determine the puck never crossed the goal line.
Ferris State gained a 2-0 lead 2:59 into the second when Aaron Lewicki scored on a wraparound on Carlson's stick side. The Buckeyes had the answer. C.J. Severyn and Dalpe scored just 40 seconds apart from each other at 5:03 and 5:43 of the second respectively to tie the game at two.
Riley scored 12:02 into the third on a shot from the left circle to beat Carlson, who was down on the ice.
"At that moment, when you're on the road and you have a two-goal lead that evaporated, and now it is 2-2, the momentum is completely in (the Buckeyes') favor)," Daniels said. "We're back on heels and for him to score that goal on the power play, it certainly was a momentum shift for us."
"We had some pretty sustained pressure on the power play and we made a couple shots that were blocked that were good scoring opportunities," Riley said.
Ohio State once again answered. Kyle Reed tied the game at three 3:55 into the third when he redirected a centering pass from Taylor Stefishen to score the Buckeyes' only power-play goal of the game. Ohio State went one-of-nine for the game on the man-advantage; the Bulldogs went two-of-seven.
Ohio State (11-13-2, 9-9-2-1) drops to eighth in the conference, but only two points behind fourth place Notre Dame and Lake Superior State. Ohio State has been unbeaten in five in their last six. Ferris State (17-8-3, 11-6-3-3) is just two points behind second place Michigan State, who has more games played than the Bulldogs. Ferris State is winless of five of their last six.

All quotes by Grant Fairley
(37 quotes found)
"One of the greatest titles we can have is "old friend". We never appreciate how important old
friends are until we are older. The problem is we need to start our old friendships when we are
young. We then have to nurture and grow those friendships over our middle age when a busy life and changing geographies can cause us to neglect those friends. Today is the day to invest in those people we hope will call us 'old friend" in the years to come."
"A positive attitude may not solve every problem but it makes solving any problem a more pleasant experience."
"People who have lost relationships often wonder why they can't just let it be "water under the bridge." It is water under the bridge - the trouble is we do not live on the bridge but in the river of life with its many twists and turns."
"There are many life journeys we all must take but we do not need to walk any of these bright or dark roads alone."
"When dealing with a legal matter - always remember that you are your own best advocate. No one will care as much about the case as you do. Use lawyers but remember - you must take primary responsibility for a successful outcome."

The Environmental Working Group's new food guide can help. The guide shows shoppers how to manage their grocery costs while reducing their exposure to toxic chemicals and rediscovering the savory pleasures of nutritious stews, soups and salads.
The Environmental Working Group has always urged people to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, organic or conventional – and we always will. A diet heavy in produce and light in processed foods, red meat and soda could well help you live a longer, healthier life.
High crop prices and unlimited crop insurance subsidies contributed to the loss of more than 23 million acres of grassland, shrub land and wetlands between 2008 and 2011, new research by Environmental Working Group and Defenders of Wildlife shows.
In the face of crippling drought across the Corn Belt, Congress is considering funding a disaster aid package with cuts to climate friendly conservation programs. Even as extreme drought wreaks havoc on crops and communities across the Midwest, government officials are now confident that they can link recent bouts of extreme weather to man-made climate change.
The one-year extension of the farm bill likely to come up on the House floor this week would perpetuate funding for the worst aspects of American farm policy and would cut funding for the best.
Last fall, House and Senate Agriculture Committee leaders tried to insert a "secret farm bill" in the super committee's un-amendable deficit reduction package. They failed. Now some of those same leaders are trying to evade a floor vote by the full House by extending the current law for a year, as a pretense to negotiate a five-year farm bill with the Senate, which has already passed its version of the $1 trillion bill.
Although the future of the farm bill remains unclear, the leadership of the House of Representatives effectively rejected a proposal by the House Agriculture Committee that would have cut nutrition assistance and environmental programs to help finance lavish new subsidies for the largest farm businesses.
The Alliance for Food and Farming, an agribusiness group representing the bulk of conventional produce growers in California - and seemingly the only organization in existence that doesn't want people to have information about which fruits and veggies come with multiple pesticides - sent me a list of questions after the release of Environmental Working Group's 2012 Shopper's Guide to Pesticides in Produce.
Sarah (not her real name), was usually one of the best students I met while teaching 8th grade math in a New Orleans public school. When I asked a question, her hand darted into the air as she politely, and more importantly quietly, waited to be called upon. Her answers were rarely off-target. The questions she raised were thought-provoking. She understood what she read. She refused to be defeated by my most challenging math problems.
Several members of Congress are using the drought to push for a costly and duplicative disaster assistance program and passage of the worst farm bill in decades.
Unlimited crop insurance subsidies lead growers to make planting decisions that are bad for the environment, two of the nation's most respected agricultural economists conclude in a newly published paper.
Late Wednesday night, July 11, the House Agriculture Committee added an amendment by Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) to the farm bill that would severely limit states' authority to regulate conditions or standards of agricultural production.
The budget-busting farm bill approved by the House Agriculture Committee late Wednesday night is quite simply the worst piece of farm and food legislation in decades. The bill will feed fewer people, help fewer farmers, do less to promote healthy diets and weaken environmental protections – and it will cost far more than congressional bean counters say.
On the same day that the House will vote to end health insurance subsidies for low income Americans, the House Agriculture Committee will vote to increase crop insurance subsidies for the largest and most profitable mega farms – and will cut nutrition assistance programs to pay for it.
The farm bill proposed yesterday by House Agriculture Committee leaders would cut funds for nutrition programs and the environment to help finance new price and revenue guarantees and increase insurance subsidies for the largest and most successful farm businesses.
Earlier this summer, advocates for the fruit and vegetable industry touted their "commitment to increasing fresh fruit and vegetable consumption for tens of thousands of students."
Everyone who eats should take a moment to thank 11 senators who proposed farm bill amendments designed to ensure that our farm and food policies help more farmers, the environment and the hungry at less cost to the taxpayer.
EWG issued the following statement by Scott Faber, Vice President for Government Affairs, on the Senate's failure to pass Senator Gillibrand's amendment to reduce subsidies to crop insurance companies to restore proposed cuts to feeding assistance programs and to increase funding for the fresh fruit and vegetable snack program.
"Large farms simply don't need unlimited government support to pay for crop insurance. Capping these premium supports will cut the deficit, while ensuring farms continue to have access to insurance. It's just common sense."
Few Americans know that taxpayers finance a $90 billion crop insurance program that provides millions in subsidies to highly profitable farm businesses and insurance companies. And even fewer know that the crop insurance industry spends more on lobbying and political donations than farm organization representing corn, soybean and wheat farmers.

City of Great Bend acquired the B29 Army Air Force Base from the military after it was declared surplus in 1946.
The first race was held May 12, 1953. Sunflower Rod and Custom Associatin (SRCA) was formed January 19, 1954, and joined NHRA in April 1955.
The Great Bend Chamber of Commerce on behalf of SRCA wrote a letter to Wally Parks requesting that Great Bend, KS be the site for the FIRST National Event. NHRA said YES and this race would establish the official acceleration records for stand and start quarter mile racing.
The first nationals started with 219 cars and 15,000 spectators. Art Chrisman ran 146.16 MPH and Lloyd Scott set a new speed record for American drag racing at 151 MPH. In 1956, the one year old AHRA said they would like to have their first National event at Great Bend on the 8000 foot long track and did so until 1959.
Don Garlits won his first National title in 1958 driving Swamp Rat and Chris Karamesines won over Eddie Hill in 1959. In 1960 the President of AHRA moved the event to Kansas City International Raceway.
The club ran races after that and as time went on they slowly fell away from running the track and disbanded. In 1993 the club reorganized and went back to the original name of Sunflower Rod and Custom Association. They did this to help in maintaining the track. It was pursued to have it recognized as a Kansas Historical Site and in 1994 was successful. At the same time the track went back to its original name of SRCA Dragstrip, for which it is registered. The facility is now eligible to be registered nationally. In 2000 the track was resurfaced with a grant from KDOT. In 2003 a new Compu-Link timing system was installed with new timing scoreboards. That same year a new concession stand with showers was also built. In 2010 a new tower with a meeting room was constructed and 1320 GO LIVE TIMING installed. In 2011 we are finishing up our concrete barriers past the quarter mile to the crossover road for the SAFETY of our racers.

-Findings may help prevent brain damage in vulnerable patients
Johns Hopkins Children's Center scientists have discovered that high blood levels of a protein commonly found in the central nervous system can predict brain injury and death in critically ill children on a form of life support called extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation or ECMO.ECMO, used to temporarily oxygenate the blood of patients whose heart and lungs are too weak or damaged to do so on their own, is most often used as a last resort because it can increase the risk for brain bleeding, brain swelling, stroke and death in some patients.
A detailed report of the Hopkins team's findings is published ahead of print Nov. 4 in the journal Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. Following 22 ECMO patients, ranging from two days to 9 years of age, the researchers found that those with abnormally high levels of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were 13 times more likely to die and 11 times more likely to suffer brain injury than children with normal GFAP levels. GFAP levels are already used as a marker of neurologic damage in adults who suffer strokes and traumatic brain injuries.Although preliminary, the team's findings may pave the way to a much-needed way to monitor the precarious neurologic status of children on ECMO without using imaging tests like ultrasounds or CT scans. Periodic blood tests measuring GFAP levels may be one such tool to monitor brain function and help ward off brain injury and death, the researchers say."A simple, fast and easy-to-use test has been needed to monitor, predict and prevent brain damage in children on ECMO because these children are unresponsive or heavily sedated, and doctors cannot easily gauge their neurologic function," says study lead investigator Melania Bembea, M.D., M.P. H., a pediatric critical-care specialist at Hopkins Children's.
"Early detection of brain injury can help us prevent further harm by changing medication doses and rapidly weaning the patient from ECMO support," she adds.
The findings may have implications beyond ECMO, the researchers say, as they offer a way to monitor brain damage in other high-risk situations, including heart surgery and severely premature birth.
"Our long-term goal is to make lifesaving therapies like ECMO and heart surgery safer and more effective by improving protection of the brain, and GFAP and other biomarkers can give us a much-needed benchmark around which we can make these therapies safer," says senior investigator Allen Everett, M.D., a cardiologist at Hopkins Children's.
In the study, seven of the 22 children on ECMO developed brain bleeding or brain swelling, five of whom died subsequently. These children had much higher peak levels of GFAP than children without brain injury — 5.9 nanograms per milliliter of blood compared to 0.09 in children without brain injury. GFAP levels were also markedly higher among eight of the 22 children in the study who had poor neurologic outcomes after ECMO (3.6 ng/ml) than in those children who had good neurologic outcomes (0.09 ng/ml).
Researchers also measured GFAP levels among healthy children and among newborns without neurologic injuries. Their median GFAP level was 0.055 nanograms per milliliter of blood and as high as 0.436 in some cases. By comparison, overall GFAP levels in children with neurologic injuries were 13 times greater than GFAP levels in healthy children.
The researchers caution that their findings should be replicated in a larger trial with more patients and that future studies must clarify the relationship between a rise in GFAP levels and the onset of brain injury. In the current study, GFAP levels rose sharply in some patients one or two days before their brain damage was discovered on ultrasound.ECMO is used in about 1,000 children each year. Between 10 percent and 60 percent of children who survive ECMO suffer neurologic damage either because of their underlying disease or complications during ECMO therapy, the researchers say.
Hopkins Children's is Maryland's only hospital providing pediatric ECMO service.
The research was funded by the National Institutes of Health.
Other investigators in the study included William Savage, M.D., John Strouse, M.D., Ph.D., Jamie Schwartz, M.D., Ernest Graham, Carol Thompson, M.B.A., M.S., all of Hopkins.
Founded in 1912 as the children's hospital at Johns Hopkins, the Johns Hopkins Children's Center offers one of the most comprehensive pediatric medical programs in the country, with more than 92,000 patient visits and nearly 9,000 admissions each year. The Johns Hopkins Children's Center is Maryland's largest children's hospital and the only state-designated Trauma Service and Burn Unit for pediatric patients. It has recognized Centers of Excellence in dozens of pediatric subspecialties, including allergy, cardiology, cystic fibrosis, gastroenterology, nephrology, neurology, neurosurgery, oncology, pulmonary, and transplant.

Is possible to delete bundles not needed in order to keep the project clean? I'm using Symfony2 with propel to build a RESTful interface. Don't need:
- Twig
- Doctrine2 (i prefer Propel instead)
- Assetic (without Twig assetic does not make sense, correct me if i'm wrong)
- Security (no need to model roles)
I can't find any how-to in order to remove uneeded bundles. Any help is much appreciated.
EDIT: monlog is the logger, not mongodb. Need it!
deps.lock file: it can be removed after removing bundles, than issue:
php bin/vendors update
and i should be recreated. It maintains the git version id checked out, for each bundle.

The recount in the Senate race between Norm Coleman and Al Franken has ended and Norm Coleman still holds on to a razor thin lead, but it's not over yet:
Like the election itself, the Senate recount has ended — except that it hasn't.
At 11:29 a.m. Friday at the Wright County Government Center in Buffalo, state Elections Director Gary Poser pasted a sticker on one last challenged ballot and whispered, almost to himself: "We're done."
But not quite. Officials continued to search for 133 Minneapolis ballots that apparently are missing. And until those ballots are found or judged impossible to locate, the recount won't be over, Secretary of State Mark Ritchie said Friday.
By mid-afternoon, Minneapolis officials had turned their elections warehouse inside out but failed to find the envelope containing the ballots.
Pending the fate of the missing ballots, the Star Tribune calculates that Republican Sen. Norm Coleman leads Democrat Al Franken by 192 votes — a margin 23 votes narrower than the 215-vote lead that Coleman was awarded by the state Canvassing Board just before the recount began Nov. 19.
The Secretary of State's Office, leaving out the disputed precinct altogether, shows Coleman ahead of Franken by 687 votes.
The Franken campaign reached yet another conclusion — Franken ahead by four votes — by including a projection on 6,655 ballots challenged by both campaigns.
At this point, Franken is beginning to look foolish. Even if all of the missing ballots were to be unequivocal votes for Franken, which is unlikely, he would not be able to overcome Coleman's margin. At this point, Franken has two choices — he can bow out with class or he can drag this race through the Courts or, worse yet, use Democratic strong-arm tactics in the Senate to force his way into the seat.
It's up to you Al.

A dark-complexioned male with an affinity for the color pink and painting his toenails. Cakewalkers are a flamboyant species, usually found breeding in dirty, dark quarters that reek of stale hair and cheap scents. Cakewalkers need to be spoken to slowly, as their minds process at only a fraction of the speed of the normal human brain. Cakewalkers require assistance in performing daily activities from menial activities down to hygiene. People who encounter cakewalkers must be sensitive to the fragility of their sanity, as they lack certain qualities.

Baltasar takes you to the Deep.
Baltasar Kormakur continues to amass projects to tackle, his remake of of his own starring vehicle Reykjavik Rotterdam is bound before the cameras soon with Mark Walberg in the lead. His Viking epic is waiting at the starting lines, and might be going head to head with Mel Gibson's own Viking project. But it seems that the film he will tackle fairly soon is an adaption of a one man play by Jon Atli Jonasson called The Deep which is based on the experience Gudlaugur Fridthorsson who swam nearly 4 miles in over 5 hours from his sinking ship to the Vestmann Islands in the dead of winter in 1984.
Ingvar E Sigurdson of Jar City fame was the star of the play but for the film version Baltasar has chosen Olfur Darri Olafsson to portray the young man (only 22 years old at the time) who miraculously made it to shore while his friends drowned trying the same.
It's not entirely known when filming gets going but Baltasar is looking at some potential shooting locations with a good water tank to film in.

ALUMNI REPORT: Chaparral's Cunnigan emerges as a leader for struggling San Jose State
Ta'Rea Cunnigan is a psychology major at San Jose State, so she's intrigued by the processes of the brain.
The Chaparral High graduate knows to keep a positive mindset when circumstances sour on the basketball court.
That hasn't been easy this season, as her Spartans women's basketball team has labored to a 4-11 record, including 1-3 in the Western Athletic Conference.
"I am trying not just to dwell on what we haven't been able to, but focus on what we can do," Cunnigan said. "We have a lot of basketball left to play. I have been trying to remain positive and just keep encouraging my teammates."
Cunnigan, a sophomore, is the Spartans' lone returning player. San Jose State might be the greenest team in Division I women's basketball — it has zero seniors, one junior, two sophomores and six freshmen.
"(Youth) does play a factor, but we don't really use that as a crutch, either," Cunnigan said.
The 5-foot-9 guard has been a torchbearer for her young teammates. Entering this week, her 19.9 points per game ranked second in the WAC. Her 3.53 steals per game were also second in the conference and 14th in the nation.
With her ability to drive to the basket and create havoc as a press defender, Cunnigan is realizing the promise that was foreseen from her when she was named a preseason all-conference selection.
She is playing at a higher level this year after leading all WAC freshmen in scoring with 11.6 points per game in 2011-12.
Cunnigan credits some of her improvement to offseason strength and conditioning. But she has always believed that she had the athleticism to play at an elevated status in Division I. And she thinks most of her gains should be attributed to Spartans coach Tim La Kose and his staff for helping her with the mental approach.
"(They emphasized) staying positive and being a leader on the court — also off," Cunnigan said. "Not being too down on myself when I do make a mistake or when I do mess up. Just move past it and keep going. I think that's where the maturing comes into place, being able to make a mistake and responding different to it in a more positive manner."
Cunnigan aspires to be a sports psychologist. Certainly, her chances weren't hurt this week, when she learned she was nominated for an academic All-American honor. Cunnigan holds a 3.61 grade-point average.
"It's time to just come together, get some wins from here on out," Cunnigan said.
• Freshman Katie Clark (Murrieta Valley High) has been a bench player for John Hopkins University thus far, averaging just 9.9 minutes in 13 games. But on Jan. 2, Clark scored eight points, tying the team high in the Blue Jays' 71-50 loss to Messiah College (Mechanicsburg, Pa.).
• Junior Danielle Cooper (West Valley/Mt. San Jacinto College) has enjoyed instant success in her first year at Cal State San Marcos. She is averaging a double-double with 10.7 points and 10.6 rebounds per game.
• Since making his San Diego State debut on Dec. 18, James Johnson (Elsinore) is averaging 5.4 minutes and 2.0 points in five games.
• Senior guard Mitchel Anderson (Chaparral) has led Division II Cal Poly Pomona to a strong 9-1 start and a 5-1 record in the California Collegiate Athletic Association. Anderson leads the Broncos in points (15.1), rebounds (8.0) and assists (3.3) per game. His rebounding average ranks third in the CCAA.
• Senior Joe Burton (West Valley) has been an integral part of a 10-4 Oregon State team. He has started 13 games and posted averages of 11.1 points and 6.1 rebounds.

Security researchers at Sana Security are warning of a new type of malicious software designed to steal usernames and passwords from Web surfers. The malware, dubbed "rootkit.hearse," uses rootkit cloaking techniques, making it extremely difficult to detect.
In order to steal information, however, the software must first be downloaded onto a user's system. This can be done by tricking the user into downloading the malicious code, or by infecting a computer with some other form of malware. Once installed, it sends the sensitive information to a server in Russia, that appears to have been in operation since March 16, Sana said.
The software has two components: a Trojan horse application that communicates with the Russian server, as well as rootkit software that cloaks the malicious software from system tools and anti-virus programs. Sana has observed the software being downloaded in conjunction with the Win32.Alcra worm.
Rootkit.hearse uses the same kind of cloaking techniques made infamous by Sony BMG Music Entertainment's XCP (Extended Copy Protection) rootkit software, making it hard to find, according to Sana CTO Vlad Gorelik.
As of late Monday, rootkit.hearse was detected by only five of the 24 security products that Sana tested it against, though that number is expected to change as word gets out. "I'm sure that there are others who are beginning to pick it up at this point," Gorelik said.
The Trojan horse software spends most of its time lurking in the background, but it springs to life to communicate with the Russian server whenever a user hits a Web site that requires authentication. The software can read password information as it is typed or even when it is automatically stored and submitted by features like Internet Explorer's AutoComplete.
As of Tuesday, the Russian server had stored about 35,000 unique user names and logins that could be used on about 7,000 different Web sites, including banking, auction and social networking sites, Gorelik said.
Sana informed the Russian ISP for the site in question on Monday, Gorelik said. Sana declined to name the ISP in question. As of Tuesday morning, the Russian site was still operational, he said.
More information on rootkit.hearse can be found here.
