Quick Takes: Entercept buffer overflow protection patented
Quick Takes: Entercept buffer overflow protection patented
Entercept gets buffer overflow detection patent
Entercept has been awarded a United States patent for its generic buffer overflow protection technology. Entercept products secure server operating systems. The patented technology identifies executable code that originates from unchecked buffers and blocks it before it can run. The patent said that the technology determines if code that is about to be executed by the OS came from a normal application or from an overflowed buffer and blocks potentially malicious code from executing. The technology prevents such exploits regardless of the application or buffer involved.
Camelot updates access control software
Camelot announced the next version of its Hark automated access control software, Hark 1.3, is available. Hark 1.3 is based on advanced discovery algorithms to analyze network events and maps relationships between users and network resources by analyzing network events for similarities, patterns and groups. Administrators can use the information to create network policies and management of network users, resources and applications. The upgrades include increased performance and scalability, platform support for Solaris 2.6, 7 and 8, Active Directory and NIS support, a security policy monitor, new reporting and security features.
Chrysalis-ITS compliant with Identrus
Chrysalis-ITS announced that its hardware security modules are Identrus compliant. The modules may now be used in securing private encryption keys in financial security architectures. Identrus infrastructure is used by banks and merchants to conduct secure, online transactions. It is the standard for trusted business-to-business financial transactions. Chrysalis-ITS' Luna HSMs are used to protect private encryption keys at the certificate authority, registration authority, to provide key protection and acceleration for OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) responders and to perform signing requests at the DSMS (Digital Signature Messaging Service) in the Identrus system.
InfoExpress allies with Alcatel
Remote access security developers, InfoExpress, announced a technology alliance with telcom giant Alcatel that will provide a secure, integrated virtual private network and firewall for corporate networks. InfoExpress will lend its CyberArmor firewall to the alliance. It is certified interoperable with Alcatel's Secure VPN Client software. CyberArmor detects when the Alcatel VPN is active and applies an appropriate security policy. CyberArmor is a centrally managed distributed firewall that extends policy-based security to remote workers who access corporate networks through the Internet. CyberArmor pricing starts at $59 per seat.
Sanctum moves into Europe
Web application security developer, Sanctum, Inc., announced a partnership with Articon-Integralis AG, one of Europe's leading IT security developers. Articon-Integralis will distribute Sanctum's AppScan and AppShield in Europe, products that secure Web applications from attackers. AppScan is a vulnerability assessment tool for Web applications.

So if you recall we brought you some breaking news in late December that Blaupunkt would be showing off the World's first car Internet radio at CES 2009. Unfortunately, due to 'embargo' reasons we couldn't release additional details or pics. I hate to say it but the details are still a bit vague, but what we do know is that users can access the miRoamer website (they're the service provider) and setup their stations for later access in their vehicle, or just browse over 10,000+ stations while on the road (there's also AM/FM radio). Although the press release (found below) makes no mention of 'connectivity', but it might be safe to assume it's based off 3G or a variation there of, which could mean popping a SIM chip into the headunit.
Note the product images (the Hamburg 600i and New Jersey 600i) are prototypes only and may never make it to market.
miRoamer Partners with Blaupunkt to Introduce the World's First
Internet Car Radio
Drivers can access largest and most diverse global selection of Internet radio from their car stereo
(Consumer Electronics Show, Las Vegas, NV North Hall Booth #5418 – January 8, 2009) – miRoamer, a global innovator in the Internet radio industry, is announcing a partnership with Blaupunkt, one of the world's leading consumer electronics manufacturers and specialists in car multimedia, at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show (CES). The partnership will introduce the world's first Internet car radio, giving drivers access to the world's largest and most diverse selection of Internet radio content through their car stereo.
"The beauty of Internet car radio is the customized user experience," said George Parthimos, Founder and CEO, miRoamer. "Today, users want to jump in their car and go – no pulling out third-party devices or plugging in cords to access their music and information. miRoamer's development with Blaupunkt is the first seamless Internet radio solution. Now, with the simple push of a button, users can access AM/FM stations or Internet radio's thousands of music, entertainment, news and talk stations from around the world, all from the same car stereo."
The world's first Internet car radio by Blaupunkt will enable drivers to tune into miRoamer's tens of thousands of radio stations and really feel like they're there. Users' favorite Internet radio stations can be easily chosen via clearly arranged information on a large screen display, enriched by state-of-the art performance in terms of car multimedia and consumer electronics connectivity.
"The move to develop an Internet car radio solution is a new paradigm and a real starting point for in-car digital media," said Robert Demian, Head of Global Sales, miRoamer. "miRoamer was the first and remains the only true digital media platform. By partnering with Blaupunkt, who has always been recognized as the first to introduce new and innovative products to the car audio markets, consumers now have access to all of the great benefits of Internet radio in their car, while experiencing unparalleled sound quality and reliability that is far superior to what they are accustomed."
"Integrating Blaupunkt stereos with miRoamer technology was a logical step in creating a truly multimedia driving experience," said Dr. Gerhard Pitz, Head of Product Center, Car Radio, Blaupunkt. "Drivers will be able to use all the features they're familiar with, such as phone, address book, Bluetooth and navigation, but with the first Internet radio, driven by miRoamer, we are able to offer them the ability to tune into the world."
miRoamer also offers the ability to browse genres or stations and customize preferences, providers and search options online at miroamer.com. The Internet portal also allows users to add media that is not currently offered on miRoamer, by simply providing the URL and adding it to their favorites.
Blaupunkt Internet car radio stereos, driven by miRoamer, will be rolled out as built-in original equipment. For more information on currently available miRoamer software, content or technology, please contact Robert Demian at +61 401-674-123 or visit www.miroamer.com.

I apologize for the very long break in postings here at Harmonium but all the usual excuses do apply. I've been extremely pressed for time with many professional visitors not to mention friends dropping by in Kuala Lumpur. Thus most of my evenings are taken connecting with old memories or plotting new professional paths.
On top of that I've been travelling again with lots of time zones, inconsistent internet connections and jet lag keeping me away from posting any music. I apologize but I think tonight's selection will go some way towards making amends.
The wonderful late great Pandit Bhimsen Joshi renders the raga Marubihag, which I am led to understand is a fairly recent creation but based on the much older and difficult raga bihaag. I have been listening to this eloquent piece of artistry over the past few days and find it soothes and relaxes me in a very immediate and fundamental way.
Panditji also gives us two other shorter numbers, one a thumri and the other an (almost) upbeat bhajan. All three are extremely melodious pieces and his silken voice presents each one as if it were a freshly cut gem.
Track Listing:
01 Raag Marubihag – Vilambit Khayal In Ektaal – Rasiya Ao Na_Drut Khayal In Teental – Tadapat Raina Dina (Medley) (Live)
02 Thumri – Soch Samajho Nadan (Live)
03 Bhajan – Jo Bhaje Hari Ko Sada (Live)

Great Lakes, great source for work?
When the United States was a largely agrarian economy, the Great Lakes provided irrigation and transportation and helped the region to become a central food source. In the industrial age, the lakes provided the large amounts of water needed for manufacturing. But what about now? According to the Michigan Sea Grant, 1.5 million jobs are still directly connected to the Lakes. In Michigan it's an estimated 23 percent of the payroll. Explore more below.

Steve Bartlett, like many Rochester hockey people, was looking forward to the game. Two kids with a real shot to make the NHL were about to take the ice.
On the other team was Brian Gionta. Talented player, people said, but too small to go anywhere.
After two periods, the team with the prospects was up, 5-1.
"Third period came, and Brian just completely took control of that game," Bartlett recalled Sunday. "They ended up winning, 6-5. It was one of the most amazing performances I'd seen against a team that had the so-called big horses.
"I came out of there thinking, 'I don't care what anybody says. This guy is going to be in the National Hockey League.'"
It's been 23 years since that youth game. Gionta not only made the National Hockey League, he's still playing. The 38-year-old who's always been too small will hit a giant milestone Monday.
Gionta will skate in his 1,000th game when the Sabres host the Florida Panthers. After a pregame ceremony in KeyBank Center, Buffalo's captain will become the 312th player and 43rd American to reach the magic number.
"Obviously, it's a pretty cool milestone to have reached," Gionta said in HarborCenter. "I'm fortunate that some people believed in me back in the day."
Bartlett, Gionta's longtime agent, is on that list of believers. So is Lou Lamoriello, the general manager who drafted him in New Jersey. Not many others can make that claim.
Skaters who are 5-foot-7 simply didn't succeed in the hockey world during the early 2000s.
"He's come up and beat the odds in so many ways," Bartlett said by phone. "He's gone from somebody they said couldn't play to someone that everyone admires in not only what he's accomplished but how he's done it. He's stayed so grounded and appreciates every day the success that he's had.
"He's never been a guy that's taken it for granted."
Coaches and teammates have admired Gionta's skills, determination, work ethic and leadership throughout his 15-year career. But the word that accompanies him most is respect.
"He treats other people with respect, and in turn he gains a lot of respect from everyone else around him," said Sabres defenseman Josh Gorges, a close friend and longtime teammate. "You just watch how he prepares, how he commits to excellence, the mental side of the game, the physical side of the game. I'm sure everyone told him from the time he was 10 years old, 'You're too small to play hockey. You're too small. You'll never make it. You'll never make it.' Not only did he make it, he's succeeded beyond expectations.
"If you can't look up to somebody like that, you've got to give your head a shake."
Gionta's commitment to fitness and his ability to reinvent himself are keys to the longevity. He's still a chiseled 178 pounds, which allows him to handle his forechecking and defensive assignments.
"It's finding a role on each team that you're on," he said. "It's gone from being a checking-line forward when I first came in to being looked at as a scoring guy, a go-to guy, and then it comes back around to maybe not being relied upon to score as many goals but be there as a good teammate, a good penalty-killer, as a good checking-line guy."
During his three seasons with Buffalo, Gionta has been at his best as a third-line checker. But he still shows the offensive skills that made him a 48-goal scorer in 2005-06. He's sixth on the Sabres in goals (14) and seventh in points (32).
Gionta has reached double digits in goals during 13 of his 15 seasons. He was limited to 33 and 31 games the only times he didn't.
"I remember the year in Jersey when he scored 48," Sabres right wing Kyle Okposo said. "If you score 48 goals in this league in one year, you're a damn good player. That's no small feat.
"To play for as long as he has, as consistently as he has, that says a lot."
Gionta has 288 goals, 297 assists and 595 points during his 999 games. He's added 32 goals, 36 assists and 68 points in 112 playoff games, which includes a Stanley Cup with the Devils in 2003. The third-round pick in 1998 is ninth in his draft class in points and 12th in games played.
But it's not numbers that define the Rochester native.
"He's a class act, a guy that I think we all look up to," Sabres center Ryan O'Reilly said. "He's won a Cup. It's the way he takes cares of himself, the little things he says. It's inspirational watching him.
"Every night you know what you're getting from him. You know he's going to work. You know he's going to do the little plays, win that battle. Especially for his size, too, what he's done, that's not easy."
As Gionta reaches the milestone, he fondly remembers his debut Dec. 30, 2001, in Edmonton ("I couldn't believe the pace of play, how fast the game was, how fast things happen out there") and his first goal four days later ("Against Nashville, Tomas Vokoun. Longtime friend, longtime teammate, longtime linemate Scott Gomez set me up for it").
He also remembers his parents allowing him to play for youth teams in Buffalo and Syracuse despite the wintry drives. He remembers Lamoriello believing in him and giving him a shot. He remembers the good times as captain in hockey-crazy Montreal, and he feels pride in being the captain in Buffalo after cheering for the Sabres as a kid.
He also remembers watching the Canadiens honor Hal Gill for playing his 1,000th game in 2011.
"I was great buddies with him, and at the time I thought, 'Holy crap, that guy's old,'" Gionta said. "Now it's coming full circle back on me now. You go from being the young guy to all of a sudden being the old guy on the team. It's a quick transition between those two.
"I've just enjoyed every day coming to the rink and being able to do something I love to do. I still love the game. I still have fun coming to the rink, so hopefully it can continue on."
Gionta has made it clear this won't be his final season despite an expiring contract. There's no telling how many games he'll play, but there will be a celebration for No. 1,000.
"It's a special night for him," O'Reilly said, "but he's a special guy."

Rockin' in the free world
Wednesday, January 9, 2008 by Unknown
I write for a humor blog with two friends, James Malins and Cherie Michiko, called Misusing Big Words. This post was originally published here:
I recently joined the ranks of the headphone-sporting, music-listening, iPod people. You know the ones. They walk around with those things in their ears, ignoring everything around them, that I'm-way-too-important-to-be-troubled-by-all-you-mortals-with-your-untethered-heads-and-your-unblocked-ears look on their faces.
Well, now that's me.
The only problem is, I've always been very aware of my surroundings, constantly looking around, taking in the sites and sounds and smells (which can be especially fun in LA. Usually the smell is something like alfredo sauce stirred by dirty feet combined with oregano squirted with skunk juice).
Now, though, as I walk around with my jams kicking into my skull, I find something curious happening. First, I start walking to the beat. Pretty soon I'm bouncing down the street almost gangster-like as Grandmaster Flash tells me "The Message" of how the jungle of the city is weighing him down.
Then, almost on cue, the world syncs up to my tunes in an epic feat of harmony. The cars roar by in rhythm, a bus honks to punctuate the lull between the verse and the chorus, a jetliner soars overhead to perfectly complement the syncopated cadence of the music.
I'm practically swimming in my groovitude. I'm making eyes with everyone I come in contact with and we're all nodding to the melody and to the notion--We're alive, we're hip, and we're all in this together, making beautiful noise, making memories, and making the world a better place.
And just as suddenly, the album ends, and all that joy, that sorrow, that mix of emotion and blend of genius on the edge and artist on the verge, it all shatters and clatters and smashes back together into the dull roar of the city, waiting for something to stir it to life again.
There I am, looking around, thinking that maybe there's something to these headphone-sporting pod people after all.

My 5 top lipsticks
Before March this year i didn't even wear lipstick, i thought no shade would suit me. Only a few months later i have an ever growing lipstick collection, they're now the makeup item i buy the most so today i thought i'd show you my top 5 lipsticks in my collection.
As you can see from the picture i mostly go for pinks/pinky nudes; because i'm still quite new to lipstick i haven't quite made it out of this shade range but i love each and every colour. Even though they do appear similar each one is different. My current favourite shades are great for the time of year we're in but as we get into Autumn i think i may go slightly deeper in colour.
Starting with NYX, simply because i have two favourite lipsticks from this brand: I have two favourite shades from the soft matte lip cream range, shade 14 Zurich and 19 Cannes. Zurich is a light bright pink with a slight orange tone and Cannes is one of my favourite deeper pinks with a more red undertone. The soft matte lip creams are such cult favourites and i can completely see why, They are a really soft cream, dry down matte and are really affordable at £5.50 each.
As i write this the lipstick i've been wearing the most this week is the Revlon untra HD matte lip colour in Devotion. This is the most comfortable formula i've ever worn but they take ages to dry! I don't really mind about the long drying time because the gel formula is so comfortable to wear, even when they do dry they still feel almost balm-like on your lips. The shade i own is Devotion which is a bright pink, i really want Revlon to expand the shade rage in this line so i can expand my collection.
Moving onto liquid lipsticks i have two in my collection: sleek matte me in birthday suit and Kylie cosmetics Posie K. Posie K is the deepest shade i own and definitely more autumnal. Sleek birthday suit is one of the only more nude lipsticks i own and i love it for everyday, it retails at £4.99 so its the cheapest one i own but i actually think its one of the best; its super matte and very long lasting. I really want to pick up the shade petal from the same range.
|Left to right Posie K, sleep birthday suit, revlon devotion, nyx cannes and nyx zurich.
Thats it for my top 5 lipsticks! Do we have any of the same current favourites? – Maria x

Thousands brave cold for tickets to Obama farewell speech
Thousands of people have lined up in freezing temperatures hoping to get a ticket to President Barack Obama's farewell speech in his hometown of Chicago.
Tickets were being handed out on Saturday morning at McCormick Place, a convention centre on Lake Michigan.
Mr Obama plans to speak to supporters there on Tuesday night - carrying on a tradition set in 1796 when George Washington addressed the American people for the last time as president.
The President has described the event as "a chance to say thank you for this amazing journey".
Tickets are free but had to be picked up in-person.

That writing can be in the form of a storefront order or signed estimate from the customer and a clarifying e-mail regarding placement of numbers/letters if the order is a guidon. I follow your instructions for the order. If you receive your order and it does not match the written instruction you provided to me, I will replace the order at no charge. If you receive your order and it is incorrect but the order matches your written instructions, I will redo the order for you, but you will be charged for it.
I shut down for the entire month of February every year. This is my travel month, so please plan accordingly. As noted above, just for 2019, I am staying home so it will be business as usual in the shop.
Every once in a blue moon, I send out an email to let people know about stuff like vaction time, new flags, etc. Sign up to hear about it.

The distance-learning program is designed for those who do not live in the immediate vicinity of the main campus in Orange County. Students desiring to be admitted to this program must reside at least 50 miles from VIU. The program offers interactive distance education courses through a internet-based 7-week modular format. This delivery option will benefit distance students who would like to access their course lectures from any location, as long as a computer and intranet connection are available.
The distance-learning program follows an academic calendar with spring, summer and fall terms, and therefore, courses may be taken twice a semester or once each summer during a 7-week term. A typical graduate course includes pre-recorded streaming video (or in some rare cases audio) lectures completed over a 7-week period. For example, a course which began on September 24 will be completed by October 9. Courses may be taken in any sequence unless there are stated prerequisites. For more information about distance learning visit the "Distance Learning" menu on this site.
All admission requirements are the same as other VIU resident programs as well as degree program course requirements. The distance-learning program is open to foreign and U.S. citizens without a residency requirement in order to graduate. Distance students may attend residential courses upon further approval from VIU Admissions Department. International students must comply with all government requirements if they wish to attend residential courses.
After being admitted to VIU, distance students may complete their chosen major without attending on-campus courses. The major benefits of the interactive external studies format are regular, meaningful professor-to-student interaction, student-to-student interaction, and classroom-like structure that encourages the development of thriving community of online learners. Distance learning courses typically include the following elements:
The discussion boards occur weekly in order to encourage community, creativity, substantive interaction with the instructor, and academic growth for each student.
Each distance education course includes materials (data):
*Distance students are responsible for obtaining any textbooks required for their courses.
Levels of Study
Undergraduate. The undergraduate (BA in Christian Studies) may be completed entirely by distance learning without residency requirement, though undergraduate students are welcome to enroll in on-campus graduate courses (though students would receive an undergraduate syllabus). In addition to coursework, the undergraduate distance program relies on substantive interaction and discussion opportunities with the instructor and peers as coursework is completed over a 7-week period. Each semester will contain two 7-week periods in which to enroll and earn credit, which are designated as Fall 1 and 2, or Spring 1 and 2. After the first 7-week period is complete an enrollment period follows.
Graduate. Graduate level distance learning courses include pre-recorded streaming video lectures with the exact same lectures given in the residential courses, as well as weekly discussion board interaction with peers and instructor. Students may enroll in distance learning courses during set enrollment periods before each term begins. Like the undergraduate distance program, the graduate level distance program follows the two 7-week terms each fall (Fall 1 and 2) and two 7-week terms in spring (Spring 1 and 2) format.
Doctoral. Some doctoral courses may be completed at a distance as well, particularly in the Doctor of Ministry (Apologetics) program. Unlike the undergraduate and graduate level distance courses, all Doctor of Ministry distance courses are 15-weeks in length. There are also some PhD courses that qualify as distance learning and will also be 15-weeks in length.
Arranged courses are also available to all students (on every level of study) who need certain courses not offered regularly. Contact the Registrar to arrange these special courses.
When distance-learning courses are not offered during the semester, and the course is needed to complete your degree, it may be completed through an arranged course upon request to the Registrar's Office. It is our commitment to students that they will be able to finish their degree in a timely manner. If a certain course is needed to complete their degree that is not offered in a pre-scheduled module, we will work with you to facilitate your need. However, if the course is offered in a module, students are required to enroll in the course as a first choice.
Technology Requirements for Distance Learning
Students fulfilling their courses through pre-recorded streaming video must have access to a working computer with the following minimum requirements:
Broadband internet connection of at least 1mbps or more (recommended)
Speakers or operable headphone jack in order to listen to audio
Monitor with minimum of 800×600 resolution (1028×780 or higher recommended)
Word processing program (i.e. MS Word, Notepad, Wordpad, Pages, etc.)
Available battery life of three or more hours, or connection to power in order to view each lecture
Tuition and Fees
Distance learning graduate tuition is among the most affordable in the country and is identical to on-campus credit courses. In addition, each distance course will be assessed a $30 technology fee.
Beginning Your Distance Courses
A new student seeking to begin taking classes through distance learning must complete the following:
Tuition and fees must be paid in full at the time of registration. If payments are made by check mail to:
Veritas International University
ATTN: Distance Learning
3000 W. MacArthur Blvd
Second Floor, Suite 207
Santa Ana, CA 92704
Time to Complete the Distance Degree and Certificate Programs
Bachelor of Arts in Christian Studies (BACS) – 8 years from first enrollment.
Master of Arts in Theological Studies (MATS) – 6 years from first enrollment.
Master of Arts in Christian Apologetics (MACA) – 8 years from first enrollment.
Master of Arts in Biblical Studies (MABS) – 8 years from first enrollment.
Master of Divinity (MDiv) – 9 years from first enrollment.
Doctor of Ministry in Apologetics (DMin) – 5 years from first enrollment.
The same time schedules apply to the respective certificate programs.
Individual distance courses must be completed on or prior to the course due date at the end of the term (7 weeks). If you need a 60-day extension, you may request one in writing prior to the course expiration date for a $50 fee. A second and final 60-day extension may be granted for an additional $50 fee. There are no extensions to this timeframe except in extraordinary circumstances.
Distance-learning students are responsible for obtaining their own textbooks for each course. VIU does not sell textbooks.
Resident Students Taking Distance Courses
Resident students may complete courses for their degree program leading to graduation. A resident student may take no more than four (4) distance courses leading to the MATS, MABS, MACA, MAA, degrees, and no more than five (5) external study courses leading to the Master of Divinity.
Students admitted to the BACS and DMIN may complete the entire program through distance-learning (except for two DMin resident seminars and Ministry Project defense). The PhD in Archaeology is a resident program, however, it may have some components that can be completed through distance or arranged courses. Archaeological fieldwork does not constitute as a distance-learning course.
Distance Audit Students
Audit students may attend course lectures but may not participate in class discussions, ask questions, participate in exams, or submit coursework for grading unless otherwise stated by the professor. All external studies audit students must submit their notes taken from video lectures in order to receive audit credit. Resident students must attend at least 80% of the course lectures to receive audit credit.

Am going along the path of disabling RC4 encryption…but am running across an issue when crossing forests boundries. The forests are at 2012r2 functional level. In AD Domains and Trusts, on the per-domain properties is a check box that says (something like, going from memory) enable AES encryption across the trust. Are there any negative aspects of enabling that? It seems like it is allowing one additional method of encryption – AES (whereas just RC4 is working right now since DES is disabled by default with 2012r2). I can't think of any…but given the two forests have 40+ and 160+ DC's between them, thought I'd ask the question. Thanks in advance…
AES encyption across forest trust
- 1.5K Views
- Last Post 25 September 2017
I would be interested in hearing what other say about this too. I am setting up a a two way trust between a 2008 R2 DFL and FFL to a new 2012 R2 forest DFL FFL.
I am constantly getting gigged on the RC4 enablement and wanted to disable. I do however hav a lot of legacy clients that I need to take into account and therefore am a little nervous about disabling it.
Brian Britt
I've got a case open with Microsoft and that is one of the questions that may be part (or the whole) cause…
Win7 clients (domain "A") with users from domain A are able to access resources in domain B (connect to IIS then
delegated cred's to SQL) and this works
Win10 clients (domain "A"), users cred's from domain A are NOT able to access the same IIS (to SQL) server pair.
At first, I thought it was due to RC4 being disabled on the Win10 clients…I re-enabled it and they still cannot
reliably access the IIS/SQL servers in the other forest.
Microsoft is scratching their head…I've provided many network traces (taken from the IIS/SQL/Win7/Win10/DC forest
"A"/DC "forest B") and they can't figure it out (the weird Kerberos errors showing up in the traces). I've shown them where I get a Kerberos error of 0xE (or 14) that says invalid ETYPE (which implies encryption) – but they don't think that is the issue.
Any how…I'll provide an update to the AES across trusts once I get some information from them. We've got 20K
plus Win7->Win10 upgrades to work thru and it would be so much easier to have them come up with RC4 disabled than to later disable RC4.
P.S. what I find interesting is if I disable RC4 on Win10, the auth traffic to the IIS box becomes encrypted
with AES (makes sense, DES not available). However, with RC4 enabled, the auth traffic to the IIS box is encrypted with RC4 (based upon netmon decoding the packets). I would have thought that the negotiation for encryption would have been the strongest encryption
available, not the weakest.
Microsoft got back to me (we had some delays due to Irma in Florida)…
Short answer, when AES is enabled on those check boxes (in AD domains and trusts) will allow the cross forest
Kerberos requests to attempt AES first. No need to do anything more than the checkbox getting enabled.
The MS engineer verified that is his lab and said that after he marked the checkboxes, the next attempts used
AES (initially said the trust password had to be reset).
I will be verifying that also in my lab for our change control process before going forward into production.
I'll also disable RC4 and verify the cross forest trust is still working with just AES.

One of the reasons for the great success of the iPad since its launch and even today is the large collection of applications available through the App Store. The list is very large and does nothing but grow, something we can not assume the other manufacturers of tablets. The other platforms do not have so many applications built specifically to run on a tablet, which makes the user experience of Android tablets or Windows is (currently) far behind.
Apple Apps is known that one of the reasons for the success of their tablets, so continues promoting devices showing the capabilities of the iPad and the iPad mini thanks to the wide variety of Apps available.
The company has just launched two new commercials that breaks their tablets around with the line that the company went so far with these two products .. They are both the iPad and the iPad Mini, but not displayed next to each other, as with ads that have appeared so far showing the two tablets. A succession of adjectives written in black letters on a white background on the screen, highlighting one of them and showing images of Apps that can be defined by the word.
Although new ads samples also third-party applications, Apple reserves a special niche for their own applications like GarageBand, iMovie, iBooks or FaceTime, complete applications and really very interesting that are available only on the platform of the Cupertino company.
These are the new ads that Apple has begun issuing on television to promote the iPad and iPad mini

What kind of reviews would I give the Red Ridge Ranch (reviews)?
If you want a great place to go horseback riding in the Dells area this is the place to go. I like the 1 hour trail rides instead of the ½ hour or 15 minute rides. It may be a little bit of a hike out of the Wisconsin Dells but definitely worth the trip. There was someone else in the group that loved horses and new alot about them- she said these were some really well kept not overridden horses.

Dr. Phil Housewives: Under One Roof
The drama continues in The Dr. Phil House as the Housewives prepare their meals for the cooking competition! See who wins and who's a sore loser. And, when Dr. Phil asks the women to anonymously write down what they think the others are in denial about, one of the women can't take the criticism and packs her bags to leave.
Cooking Competition
The women have divided into two teams for a cooking challenge. Gloria, Alana and Michelle are Team Green and Kimm, Jennifer and Rachael are Team Purple. Each team must cook a dish, and the winners will receive a monetary prize. As the women begin to cook their meals, Alana teaches Michelle what the different kitchen utensils are and how to prepare their dish.
"The most important thing about this competition is winning the money," Alana says, as she hides ingredients from the other team and pours spices in their broth, among other things. "We had a plan, and our plan was called Operation Sabotage."
Kimm catches on to the Green Team's ways, and she hides the garlic press from them. "That was my getting even," she says.
And the Winner Is ...
Devin Alexander, best-selling author and columnist for Men's Fitness and Women's Health, judges the women, based on speed, accuracy and taste.
Dr. Phil tells the women that PropertyRoom.com donated $5,000 as the prize: $1,500 goes to the women, and the other $3,500 is for charity. "I want all six of you to sit down over dinner and decide what charity gets the $3,500. It has to be a unanimous agreement, or it goes nowhere," he says.
The women decide to donate the money to St. Jude's.
Dr. Phil reflects on the challenge. "Alana's behavior with guest judge Devin Alexander is completely uncalled for. It's childish," he says. "I know she may think she's light years ahead of the other women, but it's obvious to me she still has a lot to work on."
Could the Psychic Predict This?
Gloria's psychic, Usha, visits the women at the house and performs palm readings. While she speaks with the women, Alana is interviewed in another room.
Criticism Hurts
To help clear the air, Dr. Phil asks the women to anonymously write down something that irritates them about the other women or something the others are in denial about.
As they walk into the room to read the comments written about them, Gloria announces, "This is going to be mean. I don't want to do this. I don't want to fight with anybody."
Michelle gets Gloria's cards, and Gloria reads them in front of her and Usha. The other women comment that Michelle needs to toughen up and not be sucked into Gloria's problems. They also express that they're tired of Gloria's antics. "She's breaking us up as a group," Alana says. "Every time we get close, she throws off this thing and breaks us all up."
"And then she has Michelle running after her to protect her," Kimm adds.
Gloria maintains that she's misunderstood in the group, but she stays in the house because Michelle decides to sleep in her room. Previously, Rachael was Gloria's roommate.
Commenting on the women's behavior, Dr. Phil says, "I find it so interesting that Gloria has no trouble dishing out remarks about the other women in the confession booth, but when it comes time for her to hear about her own flaws, she really seems to not be able to take the heat."
Surprise Wake-Up Call
At 5:45 a.m. the next morning, Gloria wakes up. "I'm not a good waker-upper," she says. "I don't like to be spoken to. I like some privacy in the morning. I need to have a cup of coffee or two."
The other women get a surprise wake-up visit from 24 Hour Fitness trainer Ben. He tells them to prepare for a workout.

Do you want to build a muscular physique? There are a lot of things that will help you achieve bigger muscles, and limit wastefulness in your workout efforts. If you want to be bigger and stronger, then this article can help you to attain those goals. Start using these tips to avoid wasting gym time.
Make sure to eat plenty of vegetables. While diets focused on increasing muscle tend to focus on carbohydrates and protein, they forget about vegetables. Vegetables provide nutrients that you cannot find in most carb and protein-rich foods. Veggies are also good sources of fiber. Your body uses fiber to process protein more efficiently.
A common problem is the willingness to sacrifice form for speed. Slower repetitions that put your focus on the technique will give you much better results than just attempting to perform the same repetitions as fast as you can. Pace yourself and keep correct form throughout your workout.
Making short-term goals, attaining them, and then rewarding yourself for doing so, can be a great motivator. Since it will take quite some time to gain muscle, you must remain motivated. Including rewards which actually benefit your muscle development routine is an even greater motivation! For instance, you may get a massage since they can boost your blood flow and further your recovery on days off.
A large factor in increasing muscle mass is ingesting enough protein. Use protein supplements and drink protein shakes to help ensure you get as much protein as you need. For best results, use them immediately after your workout and immediately before your bedtime. If you are trying to shed some pounds as you build your muscles, only consume one shake or supplement each day. If you are attempting to increase your overall mass, though, you can have up to three servings of these products per day.
In order to build muscles, remember that carbohydrates are very essential, as well. Your body runs on carbs, so they are essential to complete your workouts and do all the other tasks that you must do each day. When you work out heavily, you should have between two to three grams of carbohydrates for every pound of your body weight.
Cool down with a short stretching routine to ensure that your muscles start the repair process from a healthy point. People under the age of 40 should hold stretches for a minimum of 30 seconds. However, if you are older than forty, you should try to maintain a stretch for about sixty seconds. This will help prevent injuries.
Make sure you are eating enough calories in a day. There are many online calculators that will help you estimate the number of calories you need to eat each day to gain the desired amount of muscle. Use one of these calculators, and adjust your diet to include adequate amounts of protein, carbs, and other nutrients to bulk up your muscles.
As you have learned, there is a lot that you can do so that your efforts will pay off. Try just a few of these tips to accelerate and improve your muscle development efforts. If you use the advice that was in this article, you will find that your workout results improve dramatically.

Are you a People Person ?
If it's American Made and Merino wool why should it be expensive? Why can't it be affordable? Are you tired of doubling up cotton socks ? Feeling numbness in your toes or even paying $18 a pair for comfortable high quality merino wool socks ? Me too. That's why I started People Socks in 2012 and chose to make socks in the USA, to prove my competitors that the more people we help wear merino wool socks the better.
2012: I was freezing my A$$ off during a typical New York city winter day and getting ready for a trip to Iceland ( it was on my bucket list) I walked in to a local REI [camping supply) shop in NYC in the hopes of finding a pair of warm socks since I was tired of cold feet and doubling up cotton socks. To my surprise there were many choices. I did realize that while there were some top quality branded merino wool socks, none of them were remotely affordable. But I figured you get what you pay for, right? I picked up 2 pairs of socks from two different brands and decided to test them out. They held up well with the normal pilling and shrinkage, but at $18 a pair they were super pricey for me to pick up again. While they were warm, none of them impressed my toes and certainly not my pocket. All along however, I knew there had to be a more affordable solution that provided great value to the consumer. I did a lot of research on the margins from ex-factory to retail pricing. My initial reaction was why can't we knit this locally? One way to do this was to first understand why these socks were retailing for so much. After a ton research - I realized we can provide the same top quality yarn in our socks, and if we only sold it online without the distribution margins we could essentially be offering the customer more for less, all while keeping it a 100% American made sock.
After many months of trying to convince a local factory to make smaller minimums for me, I decided to take the plunge and design, manufacture, knit 'below zero' in the USA with Australian/American Merino Wool. And no, you don't always get what you pay for . When a business focuses on keeping overhead low, it's possible to give the customer a top quality product with ALL the savings.
So why Merino Wool ?
The Merino is an economically influential breed of sheep prized for its wool. Merinos are regarded as having some of the finest and softest wool of any sheep. People Socks is a specialist in Merino Wool, and you will find our limited but specific range of socks to be comfortable for everyday urban wear as well as suited for your next hiking and ice-climbing expedition.
We did many tests with American merino wool and did not find the quality to hold up when compared to Australian Merino Wool. The best Merino wool in the world comes from Australia. People Socks only uses Australian merino wool, but rest assured all socks are manufactured in the USA.
Here's how we are changing the landscape for merino wool socks.
1) Made in USA: Designed in downtown Brooklyn. Locally made in the USA (North Carolina and adding more factories over time as we grow) . All our socks are made in the south including the sock bands. We pride ourselves on using local factories, monitoring quality, which is all backed by a top quality service.
2) Great Value: By selling directly to the consumer via the internet only , we can offer the end customer all the savings. According to our research this means you will easily end up with an extra pair or two , since the average merino wool pair sells for about $16 a pair. Compare our socks to REI or Smart Wool hiking socks and you will find a better socks for People for less.
3) The Peoples Promise : Got holes already ? No problem! we'll replace it for free. This is a 12 month warranty from purchase date, and covers one change. Just send us an image(s), your order number and confirm your ship-to address (we only ship to USA addresses that can be tracked) and we'd gladly help. Please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com
**Pilling is the nature of the beast that you're wearing and cannot be claimed as 'defective'. Wear socks that are the correct size that are snug.
4) Distribution: No expensive fancy flagship stores - just affordable , top quality socks shipped straight to you from our warehouse partner in the Mid-west. Brooklyn just became too expensive to ship from , but we still design everything from our Brooklyn space.
5) Merino Wool Yarn : Top quality Merino Wool that would naturally make all People Socks anti bacterial and wick away moisture. We use the best merino wool which is made in Australia, New Zealand or stateside.
6) Where do you source everything else from? : All our Nylon, Poly and Spandex is sourced from local mills. Our socks are also printed and sourced locally to save on shipping time and create a more efficient local supply chain.
6) Cutting out the MiddleMan = Crazy Savings :
We sell online only. This means we sell straight to you from our website. Our competition and for that matter traditional businesses sell through retail partners and have sales staff and marketing teams that drive up the cost. Why should you pay for such a long line of inefficiencies. People Socks breaks the mold and provides you with a more affordable pair of merino wool socks at unbeatable prices, all while keeping our local factories busy and those machines humming. In other words we run a very efficient business, that helps more people convert from cotton to merino wool softness. You get comfy feet for less.
7) What's your marketing budget? People - refer - People
Stay Comfy! and thank you for your support.

Through the use of contrasting images, e.g., light and darkness, and emotions, e.g., bliss and fear, Ellison underscores the impact race has on the characters in the South prior to the Civil Rights movement. In one scene, parishioners are engrossed in the power and vitality of salvation and the Word, and then they are suddenly wrought with fear regarding the backlash they will endure from having to wrestle a deranged, white woman out there revival. Juxtaposing these feelings and images allows Ellison to reveal the heart of race relations in the South. He is able to exemplify the intelligence, integrity and devotion of black Americans in opposition to the oppression and racism imposed on them during this time in history.
Figurative Language
Figurative language is a technique imposed by Ellison in Juneteenth to interrupt the order of his storytelling. The novel is composed of the linear...

Do you follow? Not so long ago, those three words simply meant, "Do you understand?" Now, they have taken on a whole new meaning in the social media world. It's more like, "Who do you follow?" and where — LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook, etc.
Social media have made the world much smaller. I am connected with family, friends and even complete strangers worldwide both personally and professionally. Although I feel some concern that it lends itself to less actual person-to-person human relations, it's here to stay, and its positives, hopefully, will continue to outweigh its negatives.
In the past several years we have plunged deeper into the social media scene, with a Facebook page at www.facebook.com/HydraulicsPneumatics. Our Hydraulics & Pneumatics Group on LinkedIn currently stands 18,760 members. Find it at www.linkedin.com/groups/40236. Twitter feeds and our blogs: The Hitch Post, Hydraulics at Work, by Brendan Casey, Fluid Power Talk, and our newest blog, H&P en tu idioma!, in which blogger Ricardo Solorzano translates material from our website into Spanish for visitors who prefer to learn about fluid power in that language.
These vehicles let us communicate with people we may not have in the past. We use these avenues to spread the word about our content but also to have a little fun — to share industry photos as well as our silly ones, links to videos that just don't have a place on our website, and chat with our readers.
I'm curious to know how many of our readers use social media — personally and professionally. I was a late adopter of social media, but it has become a part of my daily life. So I invite you to follow us on Twitter, like us on Facebook, join us on LinkedIn. I'll usually take a tangible piece of the written word over anything digital. But that's just me. What about you?

The basics: My Venice and Other Essays is a collection of essays and vignettes divided into these sections: On Venice, On Music, On Mankind and Animals, On Men, On America, and On Books.
My thoughts: I've often bemoaned how difficult it is to review a collection of short stories, and here I find myself with the same problem as I attempt to cohesively talk about a collection of essays that itself is not terribly cohesive. As I finished the first essay in the collection, I said "that's it?" Truthfully, I wouldn't consider any of the essays about Venice to be essays. While classically there may not be a prescribed number of pages an essay must be, I found these pieces to also be lacking the things I most love about essays: immersion, reflection, and wisdom. The pieces themselves aren't necessarily bad, but when I expected essays about Venice, they didn't meet my expectations. If, however, you go in expecting brief, curmudgeonly anecdotes about life in Venice, you will find them.
Early in this collection, Leon comes off as quite an unhappy person. She frequently shares her annoyances and they often read more life rants than observations. Once the collection shifted away from Venice, however, moments of wisdom, clarity, and joy began to emerge. I was surprised how much I enjoyed her musings on animals, as I am far from an animal lover. Leon was at her absolute best when offering insight on American and books. Perhaps her musings on Venice would delight Venetians, but they left me cold. When she turned her critical expatriate eye to the United States, however, I was enchanted.
It is apparent at least some of these essays were written, if not also published, some time ago. There are numerous references to current events that aren't current. There are references to U.S. presidents I don't think are the current one. As a reader, I would have found it helpful to have a date written or previous publication information shared to help illuminate the setting and perspective Leon brings.
Favorite passage: "In an age where meaning has been tossed out in favor of rhetoric, in a time when films are mere concatenations of loud noises and the shedding of human blood, it is to be expected that language should no longer be considered the chief means by which we reveal ourselves, our thoughts, and our feelings. When meaning disappears so, too, must the ability to perceive it."
The verdict: As a collection, My Venice and Other Essays is frustratingly uneven. Mercifully, the collection improves as it goes on, both in quality and depth. The essays on Venice itself were each so brief I would hardly call them essays. Leon is at her best when the essays go on more than a couple of pages. It's a shame she didn't combine or develop the shorter pieces to make them fit in with the stronger, longer essays. While there's much to be enjoyed here, there are far too many piece that detract from the collection's best. Still, by the end, I wanted to claim Donna Leon as a long-lost relative, invite her to dinner parties, and listen to her delightfully unrestrained thoughts, opinions, and experiences.

People gathered from far and near,
Different complexions,dark and fair.
Words were spoken,words were heard,
Some spoke of stressful times of the living,
some spoke of the peace of the dead.
some spoke of the peace of the dead.
And when shadows asked who called to their soul,
Resounding applause replied,"Word Up Volume 4".
Strings were strummed,sambas were beaten,
Soulful voices rose high, like prayers to heaven.
Poems and songs calmed the troubled heart,
Poems and songs enlightened minds,
showing the true path.
showing the true path.
And when Angels asked who called to their soul,
Shadows replied,"Word Up Volume 4".
Now I hear growling murmurs behind me on the line,
I'm sure they don't know that here,there's no limit of time.
So I look into the eyes of the Angel before me,
Wondering why he's telling me this long story,
And I ask him,"What's the criteria for the destination of my soul ?"
Then he replied, "simple,were you at Word Up Volume 4 ?"

The BBC's Old Jack's Boat starring Bernard Cribbins and Frema Agyeman (Doctor Who) and scored by Paul Honey has won a Bafta for Best Pre School Live Action series.
(November 2014) Bernard Cribbins stars as Old Jack, a retired fisherman who tells tall stories from his time at sea from inside his old fishing boat, The Rainbow. Using a mix of live action and animation produced by Flix Facilities, Old Jack is able to wander along the seabed, visit tropical islands and fly high in the air on balloons.
The score for the first two series as well as the 2013 Christmas Day BBC special was written by The Composerworks' Paul Honey and performed by The BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. The series is made out of the BBC's northern England MediaCityUK hub.
