Children need to read early, often
A Savannah author recently provided such a program to over 150 third grade students at Hesse when Maxine Pinson read her newest book, "Sammy and Grammy in Downtown Savannah," the story of an ornery squirrel who takes up residence in a secret garden. But Pinson didn't stop there. She asked the children what life lessons were learned by Sammy's antics, then challenged them to explain their thoughts through a writing and art con- test. Awards were given for first, second and honorable mentions in each category, and every third grader went home on Valentine's Day with a specially designed val- entine from Sammy himself, which contained the life lessons he had learned from his misadventures: KTCH, or be kind, be truthful, be courteous, be happy.

Rob Reiner's new comedy, ''The American President,'' comes from a long line of movie romances in political settings. Earnest political men and feisty political women work out complicated issues of love and statesmanship in time for a happy Hollywood ending.
Frank Capra was the master of this formula, with pictures like ''State of the Union'' and ''Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,'' and Reiner's movie pays tribute to him in one of the opening scenes - specifically naming ''Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,'' which clearly inspired ''The American President.''
The new picture may not become a Capraesque hit, if only because it's not cynical enough about power to suit many of today's moviegoers. But it has good performances and snappy dialogue, and in the end it dares to take a stand on real political issues - which makes it a rarity in today's timid movie world.
The aptly named hero is Andrew Shepherd, a well-meaning but somewhat wishy-washy chief executive (sound familiar?) who wants to make America great. He believes that endless dealmaking is the only way to succeed.
Since he's a widower, his personal life is on the lonely side. But this changes when he meets the attractive lobbyist of a powerful environmental group. Their professional acquaintance becomes a love affair, and soon all America knows the president's got a girlfriend. This gives new ammunition to his political enemies and makes him rethink his attitudes toward principle and commitment.
In style, ''The American President'' is an old-fashioned Hollywood entertainment, and not a bad one at that - full of movie stars Michael Douglas and Annette Bening making eyes at each other while velvety music swells in the background. When even the gofers are played by major talents like Martin Sheen and Michael J. Fox, you know the picture wants to give its audience an enjoyable ride.
Also on hand are Anna Deveare Smith as the White House press secretary, David Paymer as a pollster appropriately called Kodak, the up-and-coming Samantha Mathis as a presidential aide, and Richard Dreyfuss as an opposition senator with a mile-wide nasty streak. The quickly paced screenplay is by Aaron Sorkin, who collaborated with Reiner on ''A Few Good Men'' three years ago, and John Seale did the good-looking cinematography.
Looking beyond the big-studio touches, what gives substance to ''The American President'' is its willingness to raise its voice on a few controversies that most commercial filmmakers wouldn't touch with the proverbial 10-foot pole. At one point, the hero actually promotes the American Civil Liberties Union, defends the right of protesters to burn American flags, and calls on his right-wing enemies to debate real issues instead of whining about phony character charges all the time.
Whether or not you agree with these positions, it's refreshing to see a movie that dares to speak their names. ''The American President'' isn't great cinema, but it has a foot in the real world, and that's more than I can say about most of the frivolities now passing for entertainment at the local multiplex.
* ''The American President'' has a PG-13 rating. It contains vulgar language and some sexual innuendo.

The Golden Globes are all about the gowns, the glamour—and the food!
While most of the 1,300 guests in attendance will leave The Beverly Hilton without an award on January 12, they will all leave well fed thanks to a lavish three-course meal from the hotel's chefs.
This year, stars from Sandra Bullock and Amy Adams to Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio will enjoy flavors from all over the globe—prepared with a California twist. "Every year we come up with a different concept," says Beverly Hilton executive chef Suki Sugiura.
Dinner starts with an appetizer trio of grilled eggplant with pine nut hummus on a seared tomato; mini sweet pepper, feta, pomegranate and California olive oil on grilled pita; and grilled artichoke with tahini.
The party gets heartier with the entrées: braised beef short rib crusted with Mediterranean spices and sautéed sea trout with spinach sweet corn ragout in a creamy dill sauce. Dessert? Mangoes on almond sponge cake with crème anglaise.
And it's not a party without some bubbly! There will be 1,500 mini champagne bottles ready to go, a magnum bottle on every table and, of course, a signature cocktail—the Golden Night, made with Moët & Chandon champagne, pear brandy and cardamom-flavored simple syrup.

So this morning I'm enjoying my peppermint mocha, reading my friends wordpress blog and I begin to think about my own blog. "I wonder when my last post was?" I thought to myself. "JUNE 9th!!!" I answered myself. Wow I am not very good at this. haha. AND before June my previous post was in MARCH. hahaha. I need to be better at this.
Obviously life has been crazy. I haven't had much time to myself just because I've been so consumed with school and work and when I'm not doing that my first choice to to be with Trevor and our families. Having time to myself is not high on my priority list, but I think it should move on up. It will be good for me. So one of my goals this Christmas break is to update me blog, make it reflect who I am and what's going on in my life. Not sure if I'm going to focus more on art or journaling or a mix of both. The point is that I need to be consistent!

Im currently TSG as a Frost DK and I was wondering what other DKs are doing in this comp against other popular 3's. Mainly god comp/KFC, and also what talents/glyphs DKs are rolling with.
Last night my team was at 1844 and climbing until we faced mainly god comps and KFC that just seemed to out CC our heals too much. It seems as though our CC's just aren't on-par with most comps right now and just leave us vulnerable too many times.
Should the pally be spamming there healer with there CC whenever its off cold down?
Currently I have chillblains but think i might have to go asphyxiate for more frequent CC. Any DK's try this out? Im wondering if our pallys freedoms will allow me enough time on target.
My 90 tier talent is remorseless winter and I'm torn because i feel like other then my survivability our weakest link in our comp is our lack of CC however im wondering if I get asphyxiate, I should then get desecrated ground for another trinket(im human lol) and for added time on target. Glyphs are anti magic,presence, and dark simulacrum.
KFC we've sat hunter most of the time but it seems like they can line a kill before we can strang for a kill.
Against God comps we normally try and train the mage but it normally leaves there priest to free cast us,CC our healer, and also lets there heals clone all the time.
Lastly against kitty cleave we normally go very hard on there feral but he normally makes us quickly peel by how good feral is at just kiting away now.Sometimes I can dark sim a cyclone and it will allow us to set up a kill but that's rare. Any advice on how to initiate against kitty cleave would be great as well.
Any basic tips or hints from DK pov would be awesome, but even wars/pallys that might have some input that'd be much appreciated.

With our big North American adventure just 19 days away, I have been scouring the Internet and shops for must needed travel items. Neither Phil or I have been on a trip over two weeks for a very long time, and the last one we did was to New Zealand to see my family – so that doesn't really count.
We shouldn't really need too many 'travel items' as we don't have children, but I am a sucker for an "essential item" and I love shopping. Phil had a hernia when I emailed him about this at work. Read More

Miss Ruffles Inherits EverythingBook - 2016
Author of the popular Blackbird Sisters mystery series Nancy Martin introduces a brand-new heroine: the incorrigible canine Miss Ruffles.
When flamboyant Texas millionaire Honeybelle Hensley dies a suspicious death, everybody in town is shocked to learn that the sole beneficiary of her worldly fortune is none other than Miss Ruffles--her dog. Miss Ruffles liked nothing better than terrorizing Honeybelle's many gentleman callers who came knocking at cocktail hour, to say nothing of digging up her famous rose garden after breakfast. And chasing the UPS man. And causing commotion, generally, in Mule Stop, Texas. So what gives?
"Martin's got a knack for gritty and funny characters...and piling on the complications to keep pages spinning."-- RT Book Reviews
This is the question that Sunny McKillip, Miss Ruffles' unwilling dogsitter, is trying to answer. Suddenly Miss Ruffles is in grave danger, and it's up to Sunny to protect her--at all costs. But Sunny, still new to town, can't make heads or tails of the town's colorful characters, from the sweet-talking yet ruthless ladies of the garden club to the tobacco-spitting curmudgeon at Critter Control. With a killer on the prowl--and a handsome cowboy lawyer with an eye on her every move--there's clearly more to Honeybelle's death than Sunny could have imagined. If she's not careful she might just get killed...or her heart lassoed...in Miss Ruffles Inherits Everything.
"As Texas true as Tanya Tucker and boot-scootin' fun. Miss Ruffles will capture hearts. I LOVE this book." -- Carolyn Hart, New York Times bestselling author

Funny, easy read but not much of a mystery. It reminded me of books by Katie Fforde.

Plenty of Navy football players experience the same trepidation whether they go first to the academy's prep school or arrive directly in Annapolis from high school.
They are often homesick, missing their friends, family and former teammates. They are usually overmatched on the field.
Freshman cornerback Quincy Adams had little in the way of that kind of stressful transition.
Adams spent last year at the Naval Academy Preparatory School with two former teammates from San Antonio's Louis D. Brandeis High, and joined another former teammate once he and the others arrived as plebes in Annapolis this summer.
"It was awesome having Roddy [Reyna] and Devin [Crayton] — they were like my best friends, my brothers; to go to school with them, I don't know what I'd do without them," Adams said of the two other plebes, who have yet to play for the Midshipmen.
But it is his talent that might explain why Adams has rapidly climbed the depth chart and received significant playing time in Navy's first three games. Adams is expected to start at cornerback for the second time Saturday when the 1-2 Midshipmen play San Jose State (3-1) at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.
Sophomore fullback Noah Copeland, who came from Brandeis High the year before Adams and the other two, knew that his former teammates had been recruited by then-Navy assistant Tony Grantham and encouraged them to take a similar path.
"I was at NAPS and I was talking to them, saying, 'They pay you some good money [as a stipend after sophomore year] and you're playing D-I football,' " recalled Copeland, who is now starting after being one of the top special teams players a year ago.
Adams had his first interception for Navy in last week's 41-3 win over Virginia Military Institute a week after nearly getting one in a 34-7 loss at Penn State. Adams replaced junior Jonathan Wev, who suffered his third and likely career-ending concussion against the Keydets.
"I wasn't expecting to play, but I was preparing to be able to play; I was preparing mentally and physically to be able to go in if they needed me as a backup," Adams said after practice in Annapolis this week.
Initially, Adams got his chance when Wev suffered his first concussion in the second quarter of the season opener against Notre Dame in Dublin. Adams made three tackles against the Fighting Irish and five more as a starter at Penn State.
It marks the second straight year in which at least one freshman has moved into Navy's secondary as a starter, following Chris Ferguson at safety and Parrish Gaines at corner. As a result, defensive coordinator Buddy Green, who coaches the secondary, had no qualms about moving Adams back there.
"We knew coming into the fall that our plebes were going to be a big part of the two-deep in our secondary," Green said. "That was going to be a key spot for us to deal with. We now have three freshmen in the two-deep."
But getting an early jump on things — literally — is not new to Adams.
When he was not quite 2 years old, Adams' parents used to put the side rails high up on his crib, but Adams "jumped out and slid down the stairs and found his way into our bed," Adams' father, Roosevelt Adams, recalled this week.
Despite playing little organized football at a private school before he arrived at brand-new Brandeis High, which played at the highest level of Texas football (5A), Quincy Adams started at cornerback as a sophomore before succeeding Copeland at tailback as a senior.
"It's pretty much the same situation as in high school — I got to play because we didn't have any experience in the secondary," Adams said. "By the time I was a junior or a senior, I knew what was going on."
Roosevelt Adams said his only son — the elder Adams and his wife, Patricia, also have two daughters — took tap dancing lessons for 10 years. Roosevelt Adams, who played safety at Lamar University in the early 1980s, said: "I think it helped his footwork. He's got quick feet."
Copeland said he isn't surprised that Adams has made an immediate impact.
Neither is Adams' father.
"When I saw the other guys play last year, I told him, 'Quincy, you're just as fast, you're just as strong, you're just as big,' " Roosevelt Adams said. "I told him, 'You have the physical skills — just make sure you know what to do."
When: Saturday, 3:30 p.m.
Site: Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium
TV: CBS Sports Network
Radio: 1090 AM, 1430 AM
Series: San Jose State leads 1-0.
Last meeting: San Jose State won, 27-24, on Nov. 19, 2011.
Navy offense vs. San Jose State defense: After struggling against Notre Dame and Penn State, then getting off to a sloppy start against Virginia Military Institute last week, the Midshipmen finally got their triple-option moving in the right direction. Junior quarterback Trey Miller overcame three fumbles against the Keydets (giving him eight turnovers for the season) to rush for a career-high 116 yards and three touchdowns. Sophomore fullback Noah Copeland rushed for 126 yards on 20 carries. The Spartans rank toward the middle of the pack in rushing defense (55th, 143.3 yards a game) while surrendering 207 yards a game passing (41st). Defensive end Travis Davis had four sacks (for 24 career sacks, first among active Football Bowl Subdivision quarterbacks) and six tackles for loss in San Jose State's 38-34 win over San Diego State last week. The defense held Stanford to 280 yards total offense in a 20-17 win for the highly ranked Cardinal in this season's opener.
Navy defense vs. San Jose State offense: The Midshipmen rank 31st in pass defense but a lowly 81st in pass-efficiency defense. Given the relative inexperience of its secondary, Navy could be in for a long afternoon against Spartans quarterback David Fales. A junior-college transfer who started his career at Nevada, Fales has completed 95 of 132 passes for 1,123 yards and nine touchdowns (seven in the past two games) with only two interceptions. But the Spartans have shown they can also run the ball, with tailback De'Leon Eskridge picking up 5.1 yards a carry. Special teams could also present issues for Navy, with Tyler Ervin scoring on a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against San Diego State and freshman kicker Austin Lopez making his five field-goal attempts against the Aztecs. An interesting matchup could occur if Navy sophomore reserve defensive end Paul Quessenberry (6 feet 2, 230 pounds) matches up with his big brother David (6-6, 295), a senior starts at offensive tackle.

I love trying new products in the kitchen. To my delight Olivado sent me a beautiful package of their unique oils. Olivado Extra Virgin Avocado Oil is quite simply, the pressed juice of New Zealand's finest quality ripe Avocados. This oil is excellent for high heat cooking, has a smooth buttery flavor that will enhance recipes rather than overpower them. It's a great base for salad dressings and dips, and ideal for sautéing, basting and stir frying. The Macadamia Nut Oil is low in saturated fats and is very high in natural antioxidants. This oil has a very high smoky point and can be used in stir-fry. The Avocado Zest oil combines all the health benefits of their extra virgin avocado oil with the natural antioxidants of fresh lemons. Perfect for salads, vegetables, eggs and fish. The Omega Plus Oil is a all-purpose oil that can be used in salads, cooking, and dipping. This oil gives your body the proper balance of essential Omega 3,6 & 9 fatty acids.
At the Market you can find a great selection of oils but Olivado Avocado Oil is quite simply, the healthiest edible oil available. It contains the highest levels of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and omega 3 fatty acids, which lower blood cholesterol, the highest levels of alpha and beta-carotene, beta-sitosterol, which protects against heart disease and cancer, twice the lutein of olive oil, which protects against macular degeneration and blindness, the highest levels of essential vitamins and minerals, and is loaded with the powerful antioxidant and free-radical absorber, vitamin E. Olivado was created by a New Zealand professional chef who recognized the potential of turning the worlds healthiest fruit into a delicious, versatile edible oil, while preserving all its health benefits.
This healthy, delicious Olivado Avocado Oil Orange Salad with Candied Almonds would be perfect on your Thanksgiving table.

BALTIMORE, Md. – A game-winning goal by forward Randi Patterson in second-half stoppage time led Crystal Palace Baltimore to a 2-1 win over the Portland Timbers at UMBC Stadium on Saturday night.
Down by a goal, Baltimore rallied late, scoring two unanswered goals inside the final 16 minutes of the match. Patterson scored his second game-winning goal in as many games and defender Andrew Marshall tallied his first of the season to help Crystal Palace Baltimore (3-4-1) earn its first win at home in 2010.
Midfielder Ryan Pore scored his league-leading seventh goal of the season on a penalty kick attempt to give the Timbers a 1-0 lead in the 60th minute. Pore recorded a team-high six shots, while defender Josh Cameron and midfielder Takayuki Suzuki both contributed two shots each in the losing effort for Portland (3-3-2) - its third loss in its last four matches.
The Timbers took the lead at the hour mark. Forward Mandjou Keita was fouled hard by Marshall inside the box, which set up a penalty kick attempt for Pore. Approaching the spot, he was able to get Baltimore goalkeeper Evan Bush to dive to his left before calmly knocking the ball into the right side of the net.
A hard-working counter by Matthew Mbuta set up a corner kick for Baltimore in the 73rd minute, which led to the equalizer. Portland was able to clear the initial ball, but midfielder Dan Lader sent a follow-up cross back into the box. Marshall came slashing through and poked the ball into the back of the net to level the score at 1-1.

Another new spinosaur! These things are popping up like daisies! This one found in Laos, no skull but a partial back complete with strange sail!
11 comments:
Hey Brett! Good texture in the back! I have good news, there is a spinosaurid from Central Africa Jurassic called Ostafrikasaurus. Its very basal spinosaurid. Probably these guys envolved in Africa from an Unknow theropod.ReplyDeleteReplies
Andrea Cau over on Theropoda is saying it's most likely a Ceratosaur, not a spinosaur. I've heard talk of either a tooth or a finger bone that MIGHT be from a Jurassic spinosaur found in the US.
It had 2 sail like a basilisk lizard and the Primeval spinosaurus or this is a brokened sail?ReplyDelete
And its a juvinile or an adult animal?Replies
A single sail that appears to not be broken, it looks as if it has a notch. It's possible it was some sort of abnormality, but the chances of that are remote. Not sure of the age group.Delete
Maybe it's a juvinile? Because the holotype of the baryonyx (which is 9m long) is a juvinile. This holotype only 7-8m. The most spinosaurs are very big, about 14-19m. So maybe the adults had bigger and and better sails, like the modern day Jesus or Basilisk lizards.ReplyDelete
Nothing I've read says it was a juvenile. And that estimate for spinosaurus was most likely an over estimation. I think most people say it was 15-16 now. Long, but short legged. And no the sail on the juvenile spinosaurus they have is the same as the adult.ReplyDelete
I think the spinosaurs had long legs like the modern day storks. The short leg is not logical.ReplyDeleteReplies
Some did, like suchomimus, others did not like Spinosaurus. You can't argue with bones;)Delete
Mostly likely the ones like suchomimus were waders and the ones like spinosaurus were more swimmers. It's strange but it's true.
Love everything about this drawing.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! I do appreciate it!Delete
Hi mr. Booth!ReplyDelete
I just want to tell you that I like so much this drawing of yours that I coloured it. You can find it on my blog: http://ktboundary-smnt2000.blogspot.it/#!/2012/10/ichthyovenator-by-brett-booth.html
If that's a problem, I'll delete it right away. Also, I want to ask you if can I have the permission to post it on DeviantArt too. Since your problems with that site and the fact that the drawing is yours, to inform you was the right thing to do.
Hope I wasn't annoying and see ya
By the way, still compliments for this drawing ;)

Once again the hacker of IOS, Luca Todesco is present and shows that it is possible to jailbreak the iPhone 7. In his Twitter account put screenshots of Cydia running on the smartphone.
Looking for security vulnerabilities of your new iPhone 7 Todesco found that the iPhone 7 uses a totally new class of security to protect against hacks.
The kernel patch protection (KPP) on the device is apparently a "new generation" that provides greater control in kernel memory.
In Twetter, Todesco shared what to do with the new iPhone in July having Cydia installed on the device. Catches you can clearly see that the smartphone has installed Cydia.
Todesco, not long ago, has shown work in iOS jailbreak 10 which he calls yaluX and is one of the most difficult to create jailbreaks to date.
It seems that the jailbreak iPhone 7 Luca Todesco is semi-untethered, like the jailbreak for iOS 9.3.3 Pangu, because it requires to run an application at the same time to inject the code that makes it possible to jailbreak the device. This means you have to re-run the application from the home screen every time the device is restarted.
Despite numerous disadvantages, Luca Todesco could jailbreak the iPhone to 7 and run Cydia Substrate (and several of its extensions) to function properly after you have made your own library to replace SubstrateLauncher, for compatibility reasons.
It is unlikely that this jailbreak is released to the public, as it is a habit of bragging Todesco .
On the other hand, we know that Pangu has shown interest in working on a jailbreak for iOS 10, so hopefully the next jailbreak comes out as soon as possible.

Bonding is presented as a major challenge to new fathers, and we are increasingly hearing from men who are doing all they can for their child, but are worried they are " losing the bonding battle." Translation: Am I failing as a father? This is what a rookie or new dad needs to know:
- Bonding is Overblown The intense interest in bonding was initiated by very sad reports on children raised decades ago in Romanian orphanages who did not bond with the few caregivers they had and then "failed to thrive". The interest is now focused upon fathers, (often assumed to be dolts) with articles stressing the obvious importance of bonding with "how to instructions." This makes little sense - trying to bond with your new baby is like trying to fall in love with a girl the first time- you can't push it - it happens naturally when you spend time together. Same thing with babies, so look beyond bonding and focus on caring, teaching and having fun with your child (like swimming lessons at six months).
- Dads Do Not Bond Like Moms After carrying her baby for nine months, a mom's bond is hardwired. When she holds her baby for the first time, it is love at first sight. We dads need time for our bond to form as we get to know our baby. No matter how many stories you hear about how some new father fell madly in love at his baby's birth and instantly bonded forever, there are nine others in which it took months for a dad to feel strongly connected to his child. The more hands-on time we are able to spend with our baby, the quicker we do so. Regardless of how long it takes, if we keep at it, our bond ends up just as strong.
- A Dad's Bond Goes Way Beyond Smiles An important element of our bond with our babies is reflected in how we feel when they smile at us. Another important element is how we feel as men, knowing we are there when our baby needs us, taking on a challenge larger than ourselves, protecting him from all threats, caring for him, providing for our family, etc. These actions reflect the essence and best of manhood that has evolved over millenniums, and they feed our souls as men today. They are the source of the tremendous fulfillment a baby brings to dads who do the job, and fuel our drive to do even better tomorrow.
This goes way beyond the superficial notion of bonding, which is like focusing on the mortar when describing a magnificent building.
How would you describe it?

Rogue Antivirus Software: Be Aware!
Rogue antivirus is also called rogueware, and it is a type of computer malware. Malware is short for malicious software, and malware is programming that either denies or disrupts the operations of a computer. Rogue antivirus software misleads or deceives users into paying money for the fraudulent removal of the malware. In recent years, from approximately 2008 onward, rogue antivirus software has gotten to be a worsening and serious menace in desktop computing. While not as deadly or as harassing as other malicious software like Trojan horses, rogue antivirus software can nonetheless present problems.
What Is Rogue Security Software?
Rogue antivirus software mostly depends on social engineering to overcome the security measures that are built into browsers and operating systems and to install itself onto computers. Social engineering in the security world is when programs chicane people into divulging confidential information or performing specific actions. For instance, a website might show visitors a phony warning message that states that somebody's computer is infected with a virus and then goad them into buying scareware. Scareware is a form of scam software that features malignant payloads that has little or no benefit to users; scareware is marketed and sold to consumers through different marketing practices that are unethical.
Recognizing Rogues
Many forms of rogue antivirus software actually have a Trojan horse component, which should aid users in being able to recognize them. A Trojan horse is a ruinous computer program that instead acts as a benign application. The Trojan horse aspect of rogue antivirus software can be disguised as a plug-in or extension for your Internet browser, commonly in the toolbar. It can just as easily be disguised as a screensaver, an image, or an archived file that is attached to an e-mail message.
Other ways that the Trojan horse component of rogue antivirus software may disguise itself is through a multimedia codec that is needed to play particular video clips, software that is present in peer-to-peer networks, and online malware scanning services that are free. At other times, rogue antivirus software gets onto the computers of users by way of drive-by downloads, which take advantage of security vulnerabilities in Internet browsers, e-mail clients, and even PDF viewers. In this way, rogue antivirus software is surreptitious. It is able to install itself onto users' computers without the need for manual involvement.
Removing Rogue Software
The good news with respect to rogue antivirus software is that it is normally relatively easy to remove it from your computer. The first step involves actually finding the executable files of this malicious program. Start up your computer's "process explorer" and look for suspicious names that contain acronyms like "XP" or "AV." If you locate a process that you think is suspicious, write down its path and then destroy it. Destroy it by deleting the whole folder of the process.
After this, the registry entries still must be dealt with. Main sections where malware usually adds itself are Internet Explorer and also Windows Logon. Search these sections in the registry for any entries that have a connection to the process files in the folder that was previously deleted. Just by following these elementary steps, a user's computer can be made clean from rogue antivirus software.
Preventing Attacks
Even though removing rogue antivirus software is quite easy, this can be avoided altogether by taking preventative measures. For instance, computer users can install a firewall on their computer and make certain it is turned on at all times. To further ensure that a computer's software and operating system are up to date, users should always have automatic updating working on their computers. The installation of antispyware and antivirus software can also be integral in preventing future attacks by rogue antivirus software. A few examples of such software include Norton AntiVirus 2015, NOD32 AntiVirus 2015, and Kaspersky AntiVirus 2015, which should also be regularly updated.
If users' antivirus software does not include antispyware software, users ought to install a distinct antispyware program like Windows Defender and then also make sure it is updated regularly. Other times, preventing attacks from rogue antivirus software merely has to do with being cautious in what is being clicked on. For example, users should be leery of clicking on links in social networking websites or in e-mails. Besides this suggestion, computer users can also educate themselves on the myriad of phishing scams that exist in cyberspace. Finally, users can also help to prevent any future attacks from rogue antivirus software programs by using a standard account instead of an administrator account when logging on to their computers.

Luxury Vinyl for the Cincinnati and Dayton, OH, Areain Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky and Dayton
When you hear the phrase vinyl flooring, you may think of the old vinyl flooring from your youth. While that may stir some happy memories, it may not quite be the design look you were going for. Well, vinyl floors have been reinvented and you'll be amazed at the new stylish options! Today's vinyl flooring options are more versatile, more stylish, more durable and will complement any design style that you may dream of using.
Vinyl is among the most versatile of floor coverings. Resistant to water, mildew and stains, it's a longtime favorite for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms and children's playrooms. Liquids stay on the surface and are easily wiped away, so spills are not a problem with resilient flooring. Vinyl has the durability to keep it looking great for years. It's sometimes referred to as resilient because it naturally resists stains and provides the greatest quiet and comfort of any hard-surface floor.

Items to Consider when shopping for Vinyl
- Wearlayer Thickness
- Density of the wearlayer affects wear performance
- Generally, the thicker the wearlayer, the more resistant the floor will be against wear.
- Overall Thickness
- The thickness of the floor determines many of its performance characteristics
- Thicker resilient floors provide more indentation resistance, more cushioning and comfort underfoot, more noise dampening and more insulation.
- Wearlayer Type
- Urethane – offers the best performance to inhibit wear, stains, asphalt tracking and scuffing
- Vinyl – offers good performance against wear and staining
- Gloss – High or Low?
- The lower the gloss level, the more forgiving the floor will be to the daily wear of foot traffic
- For high activity areas, a floor with low to medium gloss is recommended.
- Warranties – compare these qualities in manufacturers' warranties
- Ability to clean easily
- Discoloration from mold or mildew
- Gouge, rip, tear, indenting
- Wear out
- Scuffing, scratch resistance
- Warranty longevity
Style Elements
Six design elements to consider as you choose vinyl flooring
- Compatibility – Select a floor that coordinates with other objects in the room, like cabinets, countertops and fabrics.
- Color – Choose a color that you're comfortable living with and that complements the style of your room.
- Light Sources – Light affects how a floor looks. Consider the size of the windows and the direction they face, as well as the artificial lighting in the room.
- Atmosphere – To make a room appear light and airy, choose lighter colors. To make it feel warm and cozy, use darker tones.
- Pattern and Scale – Select a floor pattern with a scale that works with other patterns in the room, as well as the size of the room itself.
- Traffic Pattern – For high-traffic areas such as kitchens and entries, select the best quality floor you can afford to ensure it will meet the demands of your lifestyle.
