NAD recommends Oracle discontinue certain performance claims for Exadata
By Greg Schulz
I Received the following press release in my inbox today from the National Advertising Division (NAD) recommending that Oracle stop making certain performance claims about Exadata after a complaint from IBM.
In case you are not familiar with ExaData, it is a database machine or storage appliance that only supports Oracle database systems (learn more here). Oracle having bought Sun microsystems a few years back moved from being a software vendor that competed with other vendors software solutions including those from IBM while running on hardware from Dell, HP and IBM among others. Now that Oracle is in the hardware business, while you will still find Oracle software products running on their competitors hardware (servers and storage), Oracle is also more aggressively competing with those same partners, particularly IBM.
Hmm, to quote Scooby Doo: Rut Roh!
Looks like IBM complained to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) National Advertising Division (NAD) that resulted in the Advertising Self-Regulatory Council (ASRC) making their recommendation below (more about NAD and ASRC can be found here). Based on a billboard sign that I saw while riding from JFK airport into New York City last week, I would not be surprised if a company with two initials that start with an H and end with a P were to file a similar complaint.
I Wonder if the large wall size Oracle advertisement that used to be in the entry way to the white plains (IATA:HPN) airport (e.g. in IBM's backyard) welcoming you to the terminal as you get off the airplanes is still there?
The following is the press release that I received:
For Immediate Release
Contact: Linda Bean
NAD Finds Oracle Took Necessary Action in Discontinuing Comparative Performance Claims for Exadata; Oracle to Appeal NAD Decision
New York, NY July 24, 2012 TheNational Advertising Division has recommended that Oracle Corporation discontinue certain comparative product-performance claims for the companys Exadata database machines, following a challenge by International Business Machines Corporation. Oracle said it would voluntarily discontinue the challenged claims, but noted that it would appeal NADs decision to the National Advertising Review Board.
The advertising claims at issue appeared in a full-page advertisement in the Wall Street Journal and included the following:
- Exadata 20x Faster Replaces IBM Again
- Giant European Retailer Moves Databases from IBM Power to Exadata Runs 20 Times Faster
NAD also considered whether the advertising implied that all Oracle Exadata systems are twenty times faster than all IBM Power systems.
The advertisement featured the image of an Oracle Exadata system, along with the statement: Giant European Retailer Moves Databases from IBM Power to Exadata Runs 20 Times Faster. The advertisement also offered a link to the Oracle website: For more details oracle.com/EuroRetailer.
IBM argued that the 20x Faster claim makes overly broad references to Exadata and IBM Power, resulting in a misleading claim, which the advertisers evidence does not support. In particular, the challenger argued that by referring to the brand name IBM Power without qualification, Oracle was making a broad claim about the entire IBM Power systems line of products.
The advertiser, on the other hand, argued that the advertisement represented a case study, not a line claim, and noted that the sophisticated target audience would understand that the advertisement is based on the experience of one customer the Giant European Retailer referenced in the advertisement.
In a NAD proceeding, the advertiser is obligated to support all reasonable interpretations of its advertising claims, not just the message it intended to convey. In the absence of reliable consumer perception evidence, NAD uses its experienced judgment to determine what implied messages, if any, are conveyed by an advertisement. When evaluating the message communicated by an advertising claim, NAD will examine the claims at issue in the context of the entire advertisement in which they appear.
In this case, NAD concluded that while the advertiser may have intended to convey the message that in one case study a particular Exadata system was up to 20 times faster when performing two particular functions than a particular IBM Power system, Oracles general references to Exadata and IBM Power, along with the bold unqualified headline Exadata 20x Faster Replaces IBM Again, conveyed a much broader message.
NAD determined that at least one reasonable interpretation of the challenged advertisement is that all or a vast majority of Exadata systems consistently perform 20 times faster in all or many respects than all or a vast majority of IBM Power systems. NAD found that the message was not supported by the evidence in the record, which consisted of one particular comparison of one consumers specific IBM Power system to a specific Exadata System.
NAD further determined that the disclosure provided on the advertisers website was not sufficient to limit the broad message conveyed by the 20x Faster claim. More importantly, NAD noted that even if Oracles website disclosure was acceptable and had appeared clearly and conspicuously in the challenged advertisement it would still be insufficient because an advertiser cannot use a disclosure to cure an otherwise false claim.
NAD noted that Oracles decision to permanently discontinue the claims at issue was necessary and proper.
Oracle, in its advertisers statement, said it was disappointed with the NADs decision in this matter, which it believes is unduly broad and will severely limit the ability to run truthful comparative advertising, not only for Oracle but for others in the commercial hardware and software industry.
Oracle noted that it would appeal all of NADs findings in the matter.
NAD's inquiry was conducted under NAD/CARU/NARB Procedures for the Voluntary Self-Regulation of National Advertising. Details of the initial inquiry, NAD's decision, and the advertiser's response will be included in the next NAD/CARU Case Report.
About Advertising Industry Self-Regulation: The Advertising Self-Regulatory Council establishes the policies and procedures for advertising industry self-regulation, including the National Advertising Division (NAD), Childrens Advertising Review Unit (CARU), National Advertising Review Board (NARB), Electronic Retailing Self-Regulation Program (ERSP) and Online Interest-Based Advertising Accountability Program (Accountability Program.)

Ok, Oracle is no stranger to benchmark and performance claims controversy having amassed several decades of experience. Anybody remember the silver bullet database test from late 80s early 90s when Oracle set a record performance except that they never committed the writes to disk?
Something tells me that Oracle and Uncle Larry (e.g. Larry Ellison who is not really my uncle) will treat this as any kind of press or media coverage is good and probably will issue something like IBM must be worried if they have to go to the BBB.
Will a complaint which I'm sure is not the fist to be lodged with the BBB against Oracle deter customers, or be of more use to IBM sales and their partners in deals vs. Oracle?
What's your take?
Is this much ado about nothing, a filler for a slow news or discussion day, a break from talking about VMware acquisition of Nicira or VMware CEO management changes? Perhaps this is an alternative to talking about the CEO of SSD vendor STEC being charged with insider trading, or something other than Larry Ellison buying an Hawaiian island (IMHO he could have gotten a better deal buying Greece), or is this something that Oracle will need to take seriously?
Ok, nuff said.

This is a follow-up to a previous post. I've had a chance to spend more time recovering the two dead PS/2 Model 80s. The first step was replacing the CMOS batteries because without a functioning backup battery, a PS/2 is more or less a brick (a 40-pound brick no less).
Although the Model 80 uses very unusual (for desktop computers) batteries, sourcing them is luckily no problem in 2016. For reference, the original batteries IBM used— Panasonic BR-P2 in my case—lasted upwards of 20 years.
The next problem was recreating the system configuration, which requires a reference diskette. Finding a reference diskette image and additional adapter descriptor files (ADF) is not hard. Using them with a half-dead floppy drive is. Continue reading

We are in Italy for a week, staying at three different hostels, and this was definitely the best of all of them. Staff was very helpful. Location was fantastic, close enough to all the sights, but far enough away to still get the experience of being around people other than tourists. Room was small, but extremely comfortable and clean.

Cholesterol-lowering products with sterols cause heart disease
E. Hector Corsi
Jul 30, 2012 in
So-called healthy products with added sterols and stanols lower cholesterol, but could increase the risk of heart disease.
Germany's Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR
) asked the European Food Safety Authority to perform a safety review of sterols and stanols because they could lead to heart disease.
Sterols are naturally occurring chemicals in plants, and are found in plant oils, nuts, seeds, peanuts, and fruits and vegetables. Sterols include beta-sitosterol, campesterol and stigmasterol, while stanols are derived from sterols. Sterols and stanols have also been added to products such as margarine, juices, and breads, and these are marketed as cholesterol lowering products.
Eating products with added sterols and stanols can cause serious cardiovascular problems, especially in children who don't have high cholesterol levels.
Part of the research that BfR cited was published in the journal
by Dr. Kelly of the University Eye Clinic in Maastricht, The Netherlands. Patients were divided into three groups where one group ate sterol-enriched margarine, another group consumed stanol-enriched margarine, and a third group consumed non-enriched margarine. After 85 weeks, patients with high campesterol concentrations were found to have increased retinal venular diameter, a change which some research shows is indicative of cardiovascular damage.
Other recent research published in the journal
Cardiovascular Research
also shows that sterol-fed mice had an increase in pro-atherogenic immune cells (a monocyte subpopulation), and higher vascular superoxide and lipid hydroperoxide production. Mice that had either sterols or stanols had an impaired ability to relax their blood vessels. All these changes are extremely toxic to the cardiovascular system.
on men with a high risk of heart disease also showed that increased sitosterol concentrations were linked to a higher incidence of coronary events.
Cholesterol is an essential compound, and lowering it too much can lead to several physical and psychological problems. Children should avoid products with added sterols and stanols, as well as any product that claims to lower cholesterol. Those with low to normal cholesterol levels, and those with high risk of heart disease should also avoid these products.
Consumers should concentrate on maintaining healthy blood pressure and lowering inflammation, and unfortunately sterols cause higher blood pressure and inflammation. Until further evidence can show their safety, products with added sterols and stanols should be avoided.

NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Not much going on in Cubsland, but the Reds are done putting the finishing touches on their 2009 World Series team. Today, they added Cubs scraps Jacque Jones and Daryle Ward on minor league deals. They'll join Arthur Rhodes's neck, Willy Taveras at the top of the lineup (snicker) and Ramon Hernandez. This was the plan to overcome a 280 run difference and 23 games.
As for the Brewers, Ben Sheets is going to have surgery on a partially torn flexor tendon that will keep him out 4-6 months. Why don't we just just go ahead and count out 2009 in its entirety? The Brewers were counting on two draft picks from a team signing Sheets and already got screwed on a first round pick when the Yankees signed Mark Teixeira, which forced the Brewers to take the Yanks second round pick for signing Sabathia. I'm not sure of the rules on free agent compensation if Sheets doesn't sign until mid-season or possibly next offseason (but I'm sure Arizona Phil does). They also recently announced they were done for the offseason and perfectly content with a rotation of Yovani Gallardo, Dave Bush, Jeff Suppan and whomever else they can pull out of line from a brewery tour.
The Astros big moves were to add Jason Michaels, Aaron Boone and Mike Hampton and cut ties with one of their better hitters from last year - Ty Wigginton. Ed Wade, you're a sly one.
The Pirates added...fuck, who cares....
The Cardinals added some relievers and Khalil Greene. Troy Glaus is likely to miss some part of the beginning of the season after shoulder surgery in January. If Chris Carpenter is healthy and back to form, well they could be interesting. They were a pretty good offense last year, added Greene to it and tried to address some bullpen woes. Carpenter would only make them better, but his health is one helluva of an if.
So while many lament about the Cubs taking a few steps back this offseason or just treading water; (I'm in the treading water camp and when you won 97 games, that's perfectly acceptable. Also, after all these years of online chatting, I often find myself wanting to invoke parenthesis in the middle of an actual conversation with a live human being. But I fear they don't share my same addiction to chatting with anonymous online people...plus drawing parenthesis with my hands in the air looks weird) the rest of the NL Central seems to have accepted the Cubs as their dark overlords.
Also, our twitter page that I mentioned yesterday should now get automatically updated with the title of the post and a link back to the story. I also moved and added some things to the menu bar up top, should hopefully make things a little easier to find. TCR Junk Drawer is gone and has been replaced by Wiklifield and Arizona Phil's Corner. If anyone has a better name than "TCR Social" for links to our RSS info, facebook and twitter pages, I'm all ears. Finally, with the addition of an RSS feed to comments, you can now read comments from our mobile site.

I vote we sign Sheets in July
Very entertaining piece Rob
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Give Sheets the Wade Miller injured pitcher of tenure currently held by Chad Fox.
Cubs stay healthy, clinch by Labor Day.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Adding Sheets will be like making a mid-season trade?
I wonder if after the draft it will be safe to sign him without losing picks.
I am salivating at the thought of the Cubs RH hitters getting to smack balls at Tejada and Lee again. They should sign Branyan and have the worst left side defense in history.

i'm working an internship right now for no pay solely because 1- the university is on a total hiring/pay freeze 2- someone has to do the research.
good thing i have my "real job," but there's some grad students hurting and freaking out right now.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
I'm one of those grad students. "OHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIIIT"
Seriously. It's February and most of the people I know are still looking for jobs, and this is out of a top 35 law school. You'd think borderline top 10% people from a school like that would have offers galore. But my buddy can't even get interviews, or hell even rejection letters, he just never hears anything most times.

We are a top 10 political science program and out of 12-15 people on the market so far only 4 have jobs and one a post-doc. And everyone is experiencing the same thing you are talking about - nothing, not even rejections for the most part. If they do get one it's been the "sorry, economy sucks, there is a hiring freeze, job is no longer open" type letter.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
School districts in the Southwest/South/Southeast are always looking for people. You don't even need an education degree at most of the schools, they're just taking bodies. That being said, the schools are lacking teachers because they aren't schools anyone wants to teach at. So its you're call.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
i'm in the south...NCSU...full hiring freeze and a budget freakout. state-wide issues with money and people are still unclear what the next year brings as far as available money.

tight money is one thing, but this is an all-out freakout around here.

Oh don't worry, they'll have been laid off. Everyone will be required to print their own licenses at home, or even better, maybe your driver's license will just be an app on your smartphone.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
True Story: I wrote a check for my car registration. I had to re-write it because the DMV did not like the way I wrote the check. My sin? I wrote "seventy-three cents" instead of "73/100." I had to re-write the check. I was also amazed.
This is not as bad as the time I paid my car registration in cash (exact change mind you) and had to speak to the head of the DMV office. My crime? Not writing a check. I had to explain to her that the money she would not take was actually legal tender for all debts, public and private. It actually says so on the bill! I then explained that if the government would not take the money it issued (the nuances of Federalism would be beyond her) then we are all in trouble.
She took the money.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
What's a check? I can honestly say I haven't written one of those in like 5 years. I think my wife still pays some of our bills that way.

Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
cubs take big selling games for granted and tend to book them for the day.
part of me don't blame them because they have so few night games...part of me still doesn't like it.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
but why do the Sox get a weekend and we get Wed @ 1pm. Hardly seems like a fair split by MLB. Lately its always been back to back weekends. Why the change?
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Actually, the last couple of years, the weekends have been spread out by a month.
It makes sense to me. Might as well take your three highest-demand games other than Opening Day and put them in the middle of the week. Not like it's gonna hurt turnout.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
It seems to me like the Astros and Cardinals have the best chance to hang with us. Brewers and Reds need everything to break right.
Another interesting factor is the high-priced guys on noncontenders. I was reading somewhere that due to the economy, poor-performing teams should be more likely than ever to want to dump players if they know they're not in it this year. That could mean Cub-compatible names like Roy Halladay, Miguel Tejada, Brian Roberts or others. I hear there's some guy in San Diego, too.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
I don't think either of those teams (Astros or Cardinals) have the pitching. I think they have the best chance, but we're still SIGNIFICANTLY ahead of all those teams on paper.
Houston will obviously run Oswalt out on Opening Day, but then they'll follow that with the likes of career 4.79 Wandy Rodriguez (who is admittedly coming off of a nice year), Brandon Backe, and they hope Mike Hampton. They're going to struggle getting to Valverde again, and may be worse, since they've added LaTroy into the mix with Geary and Brocail.
The Cards have Wainwright, then Lohse, Wellemeyer, and Piniero, which just isn't any good. Carpenter maybe, but it doesn't sound particularly optimistic. They've also got a 23 year old kid whose in his second year in the show closing games.
I like our situation considerably more than anyone else in this division. It's just not any good.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Well yeah, but this team is also outspending everyone. I just don't think the Cubs will run away with it like the 2008 Angels did, even if it looks that way on paper. I can even picture a scenario where this team is fifth in the Central in runs scored (not a probable one, of course). Yes, our pitching looks better, but I'd be surprised if we clinched before Game 155.
Re: NL Central Is Going to Be Awesome
Alright, I'll bite.
Describe to me the scenario where the Cubs score 100 runs less, the Cardinals get the same production out of Ludwick and Ankiel, and the Brewers score 6 runs more, the Pirates score 21 runs more, and the Assholes score 44 runs more. I am going to rule the possiblilty of the Dunn less, but Jackie Jones added Reds making up 152 runs (approximately 1 per game) on the Cubs in 2009.

Complacency has clearly set in at TCR and in the media -- hope the players haven't taken the same approach.

I was asking how well Scherzer holds on runners.
BTW, your used underwear remark sounds rather specific. Please don't project. Thanks.
nothing gets you going like someone talking about lester, eh?
i hope you're on his payroll or he sends you used underwear or whatever you're into.
btw, he holds runners like shit. he does things with runners i've never seen another pitcher do in my life...even going back before i was born as far as i can tell. would you like to discuss it? that sounds like it could be educational and fun. hit me up, bruh.
last year they won 97...and came in 3rd in the division. crazy game on a year-to-year basis.
this year it's likely no one else in the division will win 90, though it's technically possible at this point.
no matter what, this is a special team, though...very well rounded...and should be mostly intact next year with a bonus schwarber. chapman may not be around, but whatever...rondon and crew are capable even if not on chapman's level.
How well does he hold on runners?
It's August 26. Cubs with 14 game lead. And not for #1 draft pick.
Words I never thought I would type together.
One more victory to ensure a winning season!
If I were a betting man
Give me the Dodgers tonite, not just because of
Monty on mound.
Two nights in LA for the kids? Woooo
/Prove me wrong
When Scherzer is on his game, he might the the most dominant and intimidating pitcher. A couple of games he has pitched against the Cubs when he had his stuff, and his mound presence was just powerful.
So are lack of chances due to the great pitching?
TLS watch: 0-4 with Iowa last night. Saving his pinch hits for September.
Objectively true. Scherzer's FIP is almost a half point higher than his ERA, mostly I deduce because his BABIP is .249 so something ridiculous like that. It's not like the guy can't be scored on, but when I watch him, I sometimes feel that he's the most in control of the game moving around him.
Certainly might be the hottest pitcher right now, but he's behind a few pitchers by most objective full season standards.
Well noted. You may also note that Lester's Career Playoff ERA is almost a full point lower, and he has a lower WHIP as well.
Can't have everything, I guess.
i'm happy enough with the Lester signing, but Scherzer has more than earned the extra money so far. If he was in the rotation instead of Lester, this team would feel practically bulletproof to me.
Blaspheme maybe, but I think Scherzer is the best pitcher in the NL right now.

It does to me also..Especially since one of them was totally for it at the beginning,but changed his mind toward the end.I have read and studied the charter and know it's not good for this county. But at any rate, consider this. Two of the five charter commissioners themselves voted against it. I'm not talking at the polls - although I imagine they will vote no there too. I'm talking about when the charter commission voted on the final draft at their last meeting. Two charter commissioners voted no. That speaks volumes to me.

The Finance Director agreed that the money was not sent to the county by the federal government within 60 days - that's all. When money that is earned or accrued in a fiscal year does not actually come in, it is set up as a receivable so that income is reflected in the year in which it was earned. The director had no idea when the funds would come in - nor did anyone at the Highway department. It's a hit or miss proposition. The receivable ($99,375) was set up in the hopes that the money would come in soon. The money did come in but it was after 60 days. That's the entire reason for the finding. Now the money will show up in the next fiscal year. The way it's written by audit, it sounds like someone tried to destroy the world. Had it not been set up as a receivable and the money did come in within the 60 days, the finding would have been just as bad or worse. Now the money will show up in the next fiscal year instead. No money is missing. No huge mistake was made. Please don't put words in my mouth as to what I agree or disagree with.

The Charter has good and not so good parts, as does any form of government I suppose. Term limits, changes in voting (51% or more to win), etc are just a couple that are changes that this county needs and to be honest, IF I thought they could be changed without the Charter I would vote against it, but since I am not for sure that they can or will, I will be voting for it. Now, before y'all jump up and down all over my comments, I also feel the Charter will not pass for a few reasons; most people have not read it, most people don't understand what they read in it, most people believe what other people tell them it is/stands for, most people are afraid of change, some people think that KR, DB and others can/will be in charge if it is voted in, etc etc.
I am hoping that this will bring about changes to the way we conduct elections and other changes in our county government.... But I also heard from a very reliable source that one of the CCs (BP) recently made the comment about changing the election issues to having term limits and 51% or more of the vote to win (after the charter fails) something to the effect of; "we ain't ever going to change a damn thing, we have it the way we want it and we ain't ever going to change it".
So people, as you can see, we need a change in leadership in this county. Some of these people have been in there way too long and they have served the county long enough. With attitudes like that, this county will NEVER go forward, only backward!!!

I am not sure about your figure,but even if it is correct,it will be less that a CPA..Maybe by about $30,000 more.
1) Paying a CPA will cost the county more money..Correct? Yes or No...
2)Paying $50,000 for the county attorney, as per the charter, will cost the county more money.Correct? Yes or No?

Got it from the audit; so it's pretty damn accurate!
1) Have no idea, I'm not a CC and don't have any influence on setting a salary on a county paid position.
2) Compared to what is currently paid; yes.
But when compared to pay vs. hours per YEAR worked, NEITHER is a good investment!
Agree - Yes or No ?

KeePassX is a cross-platform, free and open source (FOSS) password manager that allows you to store all of your passphrases in one secure, portable database.
- All Windows versions
The ability to save all of your passphrases in one encrypted database
The ability to copy and paste those passphrases so you do not have to memorise them
The ability to generate completely random passphrases
The ability to encrypt notes and files attached to the entries in your password database
KeePassX is an easy-to-use tool that helps you store and manage your various passphrases inside an encrypted database file. This file is encrypted to a master passphrase that you create. KeePassX can also generate strong passphrases for your accounts.
Because this database is encrypted, you can store copies in various places, which makes backup relatively easy. We do not recommend sending your database by email or storing it online where it might be accessed by others, but many KeePassX users keep a copy on their primary computer, a copy on a USB memory stick and a copy on their backup drive.
In the sections that follow, you will learn how to:
- Create password database and set a master passphrase
- Save your newly created password database
- Generate a random password for a particular service or account
- Extract passwords from KeePassX when you need them
- Change your master passphrase
If you use KeePassX consistently for a particular account or passphrase, you may not need to remember that passphrase at all. In fact, you never even need to see it. You can simply copy it from KeePassX and paste it into the login or password screen. (KeePassX will wipe it from your clipboard memory when you're done.) Furthermore, the random passphrases that KeePassX generates are typically much stronger than the ones we come up with ourselves.
KeePassX is available for GNU Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. Similar tools include:
- KeePassDroid: Free and open-source sofware for Android. Its database format is compatible with KeePassX.
- MiniKeePass: Free and open-source sofware for iPhone. Its database format is compatible with KeePassX.
- KeePass: Free and open-source software for Windows and GNU/Linux. Its database format is compatible with KeePassX.
- 1Password: a commercial product available for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, iPhone and iPad.

Figure 2: Creating New Database in the KeePassX menu
Important: Your master passphrase will be used to encrypt your password database. This is how KeePassX protects all of the other passphrases it stores, so it is extremely important that you choose a strong master passphrase and that you not use it anywhere else. Unfortunately, this passphrase must also be memorable. (You obviously can't keep your KeePassX master passphrase inside KeePassX, but writing it down might defeat the purpose of using an encrypted database in the first place. And if you forget it, you will lose access to everything in your database.) So take your time and come up with something strong and memorable. For more advice, see the Create and maintain secure passwords guide.
Figure 3: Choosing a passphrase for your KeePassX password database
Step 2. Choose a strong, memorable master passphrase and type it into the Enter password and Repeat password fields.
Note: If you want to check your master passphrase (assuming nobody else can see your screen), click the button. To hide your passphrase, click the same button again.
Step 3. Click [OK].
Figure 4: A new, empty, unsaved KeePassX password database
Important: As with most electronic documents, you must save your password database after you create it and whenever you update it. Otherwise your changes will be lost. A database that has never been saved will say "New database*" in its title bar. See the figure above for an example. One that has been modified since it was last saved will have an asterisk (*) after the filename in its title bar.
Step 4. Click Database and select Save database as from the KeePassX menu bar.
Figure 5: Saving a new KeePassX password database for the first time
KeePassX will activate a file browser so you can choose a location for your password database and give it a name.
Figure 6: Choosing a name and location for your password database
Step 5. Navigate to the location where you want to save your database
In this example, we will save our KeePassX database on the Desktop, but you can put it anywhere. If you store it on a USB flash memory stick along with a copy of the KeePassX application, for example, you will be able to access and use your database from other computers. (As long as you trust those computers not to be infected by malware!)
Step 6. Type a filename into the File name box
Tip: In this example, we name our database my-database.kdb, but you can name it anything you like. If you are worried that someone with access to your computer might see this file and demand that you give them your master passphrase, you might want to come up with something less conspicuous. If you add a different three letter "extention" to the end off the filename, for example, your operating system will usually give it a more "normal looking" icon. You could name your password database "Recipes.docx," for example, or "Rental Agreement.pdf". But keep in mind that if you give your password database a name that does not end in ".kdbx", you will not be able to double-click the file to open it in KeePassX. You will have to launch KeePassX first, then open your database using the menu. Luckily, KeePassX remembers the last database you opened, so you won't have to do this often.
Figure 7: Choosing a name and location for your password database
Step 7. Click [Save]
Figure 8: After saving your empty KeePassX database for the first time
Note: The title bar of your password database should no longer say "New database*."
Now that you have saved your KeePassX database, make sure you can find and re-open it using your master passphrase before you start adding entries to it.
Step 8. Click Database and Select Close database from the KeePassX menu
Figure 9: Closing a KeePassX database
Now find and re-open your KeePassX database using your master password.
Step 9. Click Database and Select Open database from the KeePassX menu
Figure 10: Opening a KeePassX database
KeePassX will activate a file browser so you can locate your password database.
Figure 11: Locating your KeePassX database
Step 10. Navigate to the location where you saved your database and click the file.
Step 11. Click [Open]
Figure 12: Entering your master passphrase
Step 12. Type the master passphrase for this KeePassX password database.
Step 13. Click [OK]
Figure 13: Re-opened, empty password database
Tip: If you were unable to open your database because you forgot the master passphrase, you will have to generate a new one. There is no way to recover a lost passphrase.
Follow the steps below to create a new Group. In this example, we will create a group called "Internet".
Step 1. To create a new group entry, click [Groups > Add new group].
Figure 1: Creating a new group entry on KeePassX
Step 2. Type in a name to create a new group entry. KeePassX lets you sort your passwords into pre-defined groups. For example: 'Internet' would be a good place to store passwords that relate to website accounts.
Figure 2: Group entry on KeePassX
Step 3. Click [OK] to create a new KeePassX entry group.
Follow the steps below to create a new entry in your KeePassX password database.
Step 1. Select [Entries > Add new entry].
Figure 1: The KeePassX Password Safe screen with Edit > Add Entry selected
The Add Entry screen allows you to store information about a particular account or passphrase inside your KeePassX database. Most of this information is optional.
Key elements include:
- Title: A name to describe this particular entry. For example: 'Gmail'.
- Password: Your passphrase for this account. You can enter a passphrase manually or click the [Gen.] button next to the Repeat field to generate a random passphrase. (See the following section for more about the Password Generator.) You can make your passphrase visible by clicking the button with the button just to the right of the Password field.)
- Repeat: Confirm that you have entered the correct passphrase by typing it a second time.
Optional elements include:
- Username: The username associated with this entry. For example: "securityinabox".
- URL: The website associated with the password entry. For example: "https://mail.google.com".
- Expires: You can add a reminder for yourself to change the password at a specific time (every six months, for example) by clicking the Expires box.
- Notes: Here you can enter general notes about the entry. Examples might include server configuration information, links to privacy policies, chosen "security questions," etc. Your comments will be encrypted, along with your passwords, when you close the database. While the entry is open, however, your notes will be visible to anyone who can see your screen.
To can change the icon for this entry or to add an attachment (which will be encrypted along with everything else), select the corresponding category in the left-most column.
Note: Creating or modifying the password entries in KeePassX does not change the passwords on your actual account! Think of KeePassX as a secure electronic address book for your passwords. It only stores what you write in it, nothing more.
Figure 2: The KeePassX Add Entry screen
Step 2. Type the relevant information for the account or passphrase you want to store in your KeePassX database.
Note: If you'd like to generate a new, random passphrase for this entry using KeePassX's Password Generator, see the following section.
Step 3. Click [OK].
Important: Notice the asterisk (*) after New database in the title bar. This means you have made changes to your database but have not yet saved them.
Step 4. Click the button to save your password database.
It is possible to create a strong passphrase yourself, but it is difficult. And it is especially difficult if you expect your passphrase to be memorable. It is much easier to generate long, complex and completely random passphrase that is nearly impossible to remember but guaranteed to be strong. KeePassX provides a Password Generator to help with this process. If you are willing and able to rely on KeePassX every time you need to enter a particular passphrase, you should consider adopting this strategy.
You can generate a random passphrase while creating a new entry or while editing an existing entry. To do so, follow the steps below when you get to the Add entry or Edit entry screens.
To generate random passwords on KeePassX, perform the following steps:
Step 1. Click [Entries > View/Edit entry] if you want to generate a new password for an existing entry. Alternatively, add a new entry and follow the steps below.
Figure 1: Selecting KeePassX options to edit an entry
Step 2. Click the [Gen.] button next to the Repeat box.
Figure 2: KeePassX Edit Entry screen
The KeePassX Password Generator allows you to specify the length of your passphrase and the types of characters from which it will be created. We will stick with the defaults in this example, so our random passphrase will be 16 characters long and will contain upper- and lower-case letters and numbers.
Tip: As long as nobody else can see your screen, you can view the randomly generated passphrase by clicking the button to the right of the second Password box. (The one that contains a hidden passphrase.) Clicking the same button again will hide your passphrase.
Figure 3: Generating a new password on KeePassX
Step 3. Click [Accept].
KeePassX will automatically enter the randomly generated passphrase into the Password and Repeat fields. If this entry already contained a passphrase, it will be replaced by the new one when you click OK.
Step 4. Click [OK].
Figure 4: Saving a generated password on KeePassX
Step 5. Save your KeePassX database.
You can edit existing entries to change your password or modify other details. If nothing else, you should change your passwords periodically.
Important: If you rely on KeePassX to record your passphrase for a particular account – rather than memorising it – don't forget to sign in to your account before generating a new passphrase in KeePassX. Otherwise, you might replace the passphrase in your KeePassX entry, save your database, and find that you can no longer sign in to your account. If this happens to you, there is a History screen, for each password entry. (It is shown on the left-hand side of Figure 3, below.) You can use this feature to access previous passphrases for this entry.
To edit an entry, follow the steps below:
Step 1. Click [Entries > View/Edit entry] to edit your KeePassX entry associated to the selected account.
Figure 1: Selecting options to edit a KeePassX entry
Step 2. Edit information associated to your selected KeePassX entry.
Figure 2: Editing a KeePassX entry
With an open entry, you can add new information or edit existing information, including the passphrase. You can also use the [Gen.] button to generate a new, random passphrase. When you are done, you can save your changes by following the steps below.
Step 3. Click [OK].
Step 4. Click the button to save your password database.
Note: Remember that making changes to a KeePassX entry only updates the KeePassX database. It does not automatically update corresponding information elsewhere. If you change an account or login passphrase, you will need to make changes both to the account and to your KeePassX entry.
One of the best features of KeePassX is that it safely stores long, strong passphrases so you do not have to memorize them (or reuse them, which is extremely risky). KeePassX lets you copy your passphrases from the database and paste them directly into relevant password or login screens. (Passphrases copied in this way will only remain in your clipboard for about 10 seconds. So if someone with physical access to your device comes along behind you and tries to paste into an empty document, your passphrases will not be exposed.)
In this example, we'll sign into a webmail account by copying and pasting a passphrase from our KeePassX entry for the Gmail email service.
Step 1. Right click on the required password entry to activate a drop-down list.
Step 2. Select [Copy password] as follows:
Figure 1: Coping a KeePassX password for a selected entry
Step 3. Go to the related account or site and paste the password into the appropriate field:
Figure 2: A Gmail Account displaying a pasted password
Tip: For efficient copying, pasting and switching windows, use the keyboard shortcuts. Press and hold the Ctrl key, then press C to copy a password. Press and hold the Ctrl key, then press V to paste that password. Press and hold the Alt key, then press the tab key to switch between open programs and windows.
Note: By using KeePassX all the time, you never actually have to see or know what your password is. The copy/paste functions take care of moving it from the database to the required window. If you use the Random Generator feature and then transfer this password to a new email account registration process, you will be using a password that you have never seen in plain view. And it still works!
Leaving your KeePassX password database open is a bit like storing your valuables in a vault and forgetting to close the door. Anyone with access to your computer for a few seconds can duplicate everything in it. So, when you're not actively copying and pasting passphrases, you should close your database. You will have to enter your master passphrase next time you need to lookup an entry, but that's a good thing.
KeePassX includes a few optional settings designed to make this easier, including the ability to lock your database automatically. Follow the steps below to enable this feature and to practice locking your database in a hurry.
Step 1. Click Tools and select Settings from the KeePassX menu bar, as shown below
Figure 1: Selecting Settings menu
This will activate the Settings screen
Figure 2: The KeePassX Settings screen
Step 2. Click Security from the list of categories on the left
Figure 3: KeePassX Security settings
In this example, we will configure KeePassX to lock automatically after one minute.
Figure 4: Configuring KeePassX to lock automatically
Step 3. Check the Lock database after inactivity of box
Step 4. Type a number of seconds in the field to the right
Tip: Notice you can also change the number of seconds that KeePassX leaves copied passphrases in the clipboard before deleting them. If the default 10 seconds does not feel like enough, you might want to change the value in Clear clipboard to 20 seconds.
Step 5. Click [OK]
You can also lock your password database manually. Follow the steps below to practice saving and locking your database quickly.
Step 6. Press Ctrl-S to save your password database. (You can also click the button.)
Step 7. Press Ctrl-L lock your password database. (You can also click the button.)
Figure 7: A locked database in KeePassX
To open your database again, follow the steps below.
Figure 5: Opening a locked KeePassX database
Step 8. Type your master passphrase into the Password box.
Step 9. Click [OK].
You should create multiple copies of your password database and try to keep at least one backup that is relatively up-to-date. All of your backup copies will be protected by your master passphrase, so it is generally safe to store them on regular, unencrypted hard drives and USB memory sticks.
To make a backup copy of your password database, follow the steps below:
Step 1. Navigate to your password database
Figure 1: Locating your password database
Step 2. Right-click your password database
Figure 2: Copying your password database
Step 3. Select Copy
Step 4. Navigate to another location. In this example, we use a USB memory stick.
Figure 3: Finding a location for your backup
Step 5. Right-click in the location you have chosen
Figure 4: Choosing a backup location
Step 6. Select Paste.
Figure 5: Pasting a backup copy of your password database
Step 7. Right-click the backup copy of your password database.
Figure 6: Renaming your backup copy
Step 8. Select Rename.
Figure 7: Choosing a new name for your backup copy
Step 9. Type a new name for your backup copy so you don't get it confused with your master copy.
Step 10. Press Enter.
Figure 8: A new password database backup
Tip: KeePassX does not automatically update all copies of a database when changes are made. You have to do this manually. It's a good habit to regularly replace backup copies of your KeePassX database. That way you won't lose all of your new entries if you misplace your database file.
You can change the master passphrase for a KeePassX database any time, and you should do so periodically. To change your master passphrase, follow the steps below.
Step 1. Click Database and select Change master key from the KeePassX menu bar, as shown below:
Figure 1: Changing your master passphrase
This will activate the Change Master Key screen.
Figure 2: Choosing a new master passphrase
Step 2. Choose a strong passphrase and type it into the Enter password and Repeat password boxes.
Step 3. Click [OK].
Step 4. Click the button to save your database.
The password database format used in older versions of KeePassX (including version 0.4.3) is no longer maintained. If you have password databases that were created using these versions of KeePassX or KeePass, you should import them into a new version (2.0.2 or newer) of KeePassX and re-save them. To do so, follow the steps below.
In this example, we will assume that you already have an up-to-date password database open in KeePass, but you can also import databases into a fresh installation of KeePassX.
Step 1. Click Database and select Import KeePass 1 database, as shown below.
Figure 1: Importing an older password database
In this example, we will import a file called "old-database.kdb" located on the Desktop.
Step 2. Navigate to the location of your older password database.
Figure 2: Locating your older KeePass password database
Step 3. Select the password database file.
Step 4. Click [Open].
Step 5. Type the master passphrase for your older password database.
Figure 3: Entering the master passphrase for your older password database
Step 6. Click [OK].
Note: If you already have a database open, KeePassX will open your older database in a second tab
Figure 4: A second, older password database open in a second tab
You can save this database normally and it will be converted to the current KeePassX database format.
Step 7. Click the button to save your older database in the new format.
Figure 5: Saving an up-to-date copy of an older password database
In this example, we are saving our imported password database to the Desktop and naming it "imported-db.kdbx".
Step 8. Navigate to the location where you would like to store a new copy of this password database.
Step 9. Type a filename for your new password database into the File name box.
Figure 6: Choosing a location and a name for your updated password database
Step 10. Click [Save].
Your imported database is now up-to-date and should contain all of the entries it had before. You can access and modify it normally using up-to-date versions of KeePassX and its original master passphrase.
Note: Don't be confused by the filename displayed in the KeePassX title bar or tab. It will reflect the previous name of this password database, even when you are opening an imported, up-to-date file. (Note the "old-database.kdb" in the figure above. In fact, this database is now called "imported-db.kdbx".)
Q: On the outside chance that I forget my master password, is there anything I can do to access retrieve my saved passphrases?
A: Nope. There is nothing you can do in that situation. To prevent this from happening, you could use some of the methods for remembering a password or passphrase that are described in the Create and maintain strong passwords guide.
Q: And if I uninstall KeePassX, what will happen to my passwords?
A: The program will be deleted from your computer, but your database (stored in a .kdbx file) will remain. You can open this file at any time in the future if you install KeePassX again.
Q: I think I accidentally deleted the database file!
A: Hopefully you made a backup beforehand. Make sure you haven't simply forgotten where you stored the file in the first place. Search your computer for a file with a .kdbx extension. If you really have deleted it, and if you act quickly, you may be able to use recovery software to restore the file.

The viral video smear campaign against Planned Parenthood is a war on poor women
Whenever there are calls to restrict abortion and defund Planned Parenthood, Democrats fight back by drawing attention to the "war on women." It happened after the 2010 midterms when the GOP began passing abortion restrictions at an unprecedented rate, and it's happening again. Now, the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) continues its viral video smear campaign against Planned Parenthood, alleging that the women's health organization is selling fetal tissue for a profit.
