We're having sleep problems. Aren't those the worst? Nothing can make you more frustrated as a parent than a change in your kids' sleep habits which requires you to be awake more throughout the night.
So what's the problem? I think it was being on vacation for 3 weeks. During those 3 weeks we slept in lots of different houses and through it all, I slept in the same room as them. Not only that, but I went to bed with them. We kept them up later and then I went to bed with them each night. Now every night has been a battle. The boys cry and cry and cry and cry when we lay them down for bed. We have night lights, we sleep with lovies, a fan for noise- all of the normal things we've done.
I don't know what else to do short from going in there and just sitting with them until they fall asleep and honestly-I'm not starting that habit. So for now I just let them cry for a period, go back in after awhile to try to console them but they pretty much just start right back up when I leave the room. I've tried different techniques - the whole no eye contact/quiet in and out method, I've tried consoling them and loving on them, even in my darkest moments I've scolded them. (Out of my own frustration and then felt like an ass and then consoled them.)
Not only are we having issues with falling asleep, we're having issues with staying asleep. Julian wakes up multiple times each night, last night was 5 times between 11-2. He gets up and goes to his door and whines, I go into the bedroom, lay him down, kiss him and he goes back asleep. And then it's only a matter of time until he's awake again.
IT'S KILLING ME. Chikezie is usually awake until 2am or later (he's a night owl) but most of the time he's playing video games w/headphones so he can't hear the boys crying, and they're in the room right next to me so I'm always the one getting up with them. Even if he did hear them, they want me-not him.
Anyways. I'm not sure anybody can help, I'm assuming this is some sort of stage or adjustment period or punishment for me for keeping them away from home for 3 weeks...I guess I'm just venting? I'm just frustrated. Up until this point bedtime has always been amazing but this past week it's just been a time I dread each day. It's almost 10pm right now, they've been in bed for almost 2 hours and they're still not asleep.
Tonight I finally decided to leave the hallway light on. They're quiet now, I don't know if it's because of the hallway light or if it's because they've been crying in their room for over an hour (on and off).
I'm just tired.

NASA lauches Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 Mission
This new satellite observer is NASA's first spacecraft dedicated to making space-based observations of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Which is the principal human-produced driver of climate change. It will be a new science mission to Earth which will have the accuracy, resolution and coverage needed to provide more data about carbon.
In detail scientists want to know about the geographic distribution and seasonal variations of both human and natural sources of carbon dioxide emissions. Another interesting mystery to solve are the places where these emissions are being absorbed (sinks). This project will provide future data on regional scales at monthly intervals.

Concussion is a noble movie. It's so noble, in fact, that the experience of watching it often feels more like paying a visit to a bronze statue than watching a movie, which is a problem. The film tackles an issue that is still relevant and significant, but there's no sense of urgency or passion in the way it examines that issue. This is a film filled to the brim with inspirational speeches, swelling strings and dramatic confrontations, which makes the lack of fire even more striking. Plus, all that nobility doesn't mesh too well with the film's curious lack of honesty.
The film begins with Mike Webster (David Morse, Proof of Life), a former Pittsburgh Steelers center who is found dead at the age of 50. The autopsy is conducted by Bennett Omalu (Will Smith, Independence Day), a forensic pathologist who works for the Allegheny County coroner's office under the supervision of Dr. Cyril Wecht (Albert Brooks, Drive). When Omalu learns that Webster had severe brain damage, he begins to suspect that the death was largely the result of the punishment Webster had taken during his NFL career. Over the next few years, Omalu discovers other, similar cases, and begins digging deeper. Naturally, the NFL doesn't take too kindly to this.
You've seen some version of this story before (Erin Brockovich, All the President's Men, A Civil Action, etc.): a dedicated, heroic protagonist attempts to find the truth while sinister forces from some powerful organization try to shut the investigation down. Concussion feels like an awfully simplified version of that sort of movie, leaving precious little room for shades of gray and painting the vast majority of the characters as pretty straightforward "good guys" and "bad guys." Yes, the real-life Omalu did research that felt like a serious threat to the NFL, but the film's version of Omalu's life feels like the sort of melodramatic persecution fantasy that's usually left to the realm of ham-fisted religious films.
An example: in one scene, FBI agents burst into the coroner's office, charge Wecht (who happens to be Omalu's best friend and mentor) with 84 counts of corruption (all incredibly flimsy, nitpicky charges, mind you) and then unsubtly inform Omalu that they'll be coming after him next if he doesn't start getting in line. Whoa, the NFL is so powerful that they control the FBI? Intense! Alas, the scene is a heavily-fudged version of the truth, which is that Wecht was charged with corruption before the NFL knew anything about Omalu's work (also, Omalu went on to testify against Wecht in court... something Concussion's version of the character promises never to do). Perhaps even more egregious is the completely fictional sequence in which Omalu's wife Prema (Gugu Mbatha Raw, Belle) miscarries due to the stress of being stalked by the NFL's hoodlums. The NFL has done plenty of morally bankrupt things that could have been effectively used by the film, so why does Concussion feel the need to turn the league into a ridiculous bogeyman? Likewise, it misrepresents the medical facts of the story, oversimplifying and overstating the link between pro football and suicide (there may indeed be a connection worth exploring, but statistically, former NFL players are less likely to commit suicide than other men their age).
Omalu is a Nigerian immigrant, which allows the film to indulge in a sort of mock naivete that quickly becomes tiresome: the pathologist doesn't really know too much about American culture or America's relationship with football, so he is repeatedly shocked (shocked!) to learn that both the NFL and many football fans are more interested in preserving the game than in protecting the health of the players. So, we're treated to scenes with former Steelers team doctor Julian Bailes (Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock) – a sympathetic ally who provides some crucial support to Omalu - delivering a handful of generic, "Look, you don't know what these people will do to you!" speeches.
Smith's performance is a mostly-unsatisfying turn; one of those roles where you sense that the actor is trying just a little too hard. Smith certainly seems devoted to getting that Nigerian accent right, but this is such a vanilla character. We're supposed to be moved by Omalu's unwavering decency and warmth, but he's so consistently honorable and brave that it begins to feel like we're watching the tribute video version of his life. The actor was vastly better in Focus (his other 2015 star vehicle), which gave him a part that played to all of his strengths (both comic and dramatic) and let him remind us of why he's such an appealing movie star. In Concussion, he seems to be straining valiantly to convince us that he's just an ordinary, humble guy.
I recognize that the issues Concussion raises are important (even if it has a tendency to exaggerate the reality of the situation). I have a family member who played in the NFL. I've seen the toll that the profession can take on a person's life. The league has demonstrated a great deal of dishonesty in the way it has chosen to deal with this issue, and the serious health consequences the game can cause have been underplayed (accepting the risk of a knee or hip injury is an entirely different thing than accepting the risk of severe brain trauma). As such, it's a shame that the movie strays from both the medical and biographical facts of this story so frequently for the sake of juicing things up. It compromises the power of the film's argument, and the film itself isn't good enough to overcome that (Peter Landesman's writing and direction is workmanlike at best). To quote Smith's big awards-reel scene: "Tell the truth!"

The pair has been close friends since 2007, when Beckham moved to Los Angeles, and the hip-hop star is determined to give his friend a night to remember in Sin City to celebrate the birthday milestone.
He tells Britain's The Sun newspaper, "My boy David hits the big 4-0 this year and you know, it's gotta be Vegas, there ain't nowhere else it can be... You know what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. He ain't got to worry about (his wife) Victoria, I will speak to her and explain when a man turns 40 he needs to go away with his boys... Forty is nothing these days. We'll show we can go harder than the kids."

32nd Annual Meeting
AMIS Meets with Galpin Society
Oxford, England
August 2-9, 2003
The 32nd Annual Meeting of the American Musical Instrument Society in 2003 will be a special joint Conference on Musical Instruments with the Galpin Society in Oxford, London, and Edinburgh from Saturday, August 2, through Saturday, August 9. The administration of the Conference will be coordinated by the Edinburgh University Collection of Historic Musical Instruments (e-mail: email@example.com.
The Conference will feature visits to the most important collections of musical instruments in the United Kingdom, paper sessions in which members of both societies will present the results of their recent research, concerts, and social events. The schedule will include all the regular attractions of the AMIS annual meetings: the business meeting, a reception, and the banquet and auction.
The following provisional schedule had been announced for the joint Conference and posted on the web at www.music.ed.ac.uk/euchmi/galpin/gxkp.html. All AMIS members will receive a separate mailing concerning this Conference, which will include an up-to-date version of the schedule (therefore possibly superseding some of the information presented below, which is intended to give readers a general idea of the types of activities planned) along with complete information about registration and booking accommodations and meals. Early booking for the Conference will open in fall, 2002.

Late afternoon or early evening: Travel from Oxford to London (frequent bus service is available). Accommodation in central London (three nights) at College Hall, Malet Street.
Evening: Weather permitting, Ben Hebbert will conduct an illustrated organological walking tour of the City of London and its surrounding area. Following the history of the music trade through the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, the tour is designed to describe the social and historical context in which many well-known instrument makers worked and lived. Sites of interest will include St Paul's Cathedral and the Royal Exchange, both areas of intense musical activity, and also the Inner Temple, home to John Playford and John Carr in the seventeenth century and largely untouched for almost three hundred years. Across the river in Southwark, sites will include Shakespeare's Rose Theatre before we finish the tour with "warm beer" and food at the historic The George, close by the home of Jacob Rayman, England's celebrated "earliest" violin maker, and the only surviving Elizabethan galleried inn.
Tuesday, August 5
Visits to the Horniman Museum and Finchcocks, including a demonstration/ recital on the instruments in the Richard Burnett collection and an opportunity for keyboard players to try some of the instruments; supper in the cellar restaurant at Finchcocks. Coach travel throughout, leaving from and returning to College Hall, Malet Street.
AMIS and Galpin Society members who visit the Horniman Museum will be invited to tour the musical instrument gallery, which opened in October, 2002. A cross-section of the collection represented by 1,500 instruments will be displayed in this beautiful new space designed by RAA Associates. Included in the exhibit will be historic instruments of European art music from the collections of Arnold Dolmetsch and Adam Carse. Recent fieldwork collections, made by the museum's curators, will be animated by their videos capturing performances within original cultural contexts. The exhibition will also celebrate the bi-centenary of the birth of the scientist Charles Wheatstone, inventor of the concertina, with a range of free-reed instruments, printed music, and archival photographs from the Wayne collection, which was purchased in 1996 with the generous assistance of the Heritage Lottery Fund.
The Galpin Society Annual General Meeting will be held during the visit to the Horniman Museum.
The Finchcocks Collection has been assembled over the past thirty-five years by Richard Burnett, pianist and pioneer of the early piano revival in the UK. It comprises historical keyboard instruments, mainly from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and numbers nearly a hundred instruments in all; these are housed in the Georgian manor of Finchcocks, a Grade-1 building set in a beautiful garden, surrounded by a Kentish landscape of parkland and hopgardens. Highlights of the collection include the wonderfully preserved Guarracino virginals from 1668, a Portugese harpsichord by Antunes, Viennese fortepianos by Rosenberger and Graf, a tiny travelling square piano by Anton Walter, nine pianos by Clementi, and a magnificent house organ made in 1766 by John Byfield. There are also curiosities, such as the recently acquired Euphonicon, a pyramid upright grand from Prague, a "dog-kennel" piano by Mercier, and many others. Many of these instruments are restored to concert condition, and they will be demonstrated during the visit.
Finchcocks is a musical center of international repute, and it presents a varied musical program during the season, which runs from April to October. There is a September Festival, Open Days with music every Sunday, and a lively educational program, with concerts and courses for students and children. About fifty recordings have been made in the house. An ancillary collection of prints and pictures on the theme of the eighteenth-century pleasure gardens is also on display.
Wednesday, August 6
Morning and early afternoon: Visit to South Kensington, including the Royal College of Music Museum of Instruments and the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The custom-built Royal College of Music Museum houses an internationally renowned collection of 600 instruments (500 European, keyboard, stringed and wind; 100 Asian and African), including a clavicytherium of c.1480 that is believed to be the earliest surviving keyboard instrument. Gifts since the foundation of the College by the Prince of Wales in 1883 include collections from Tagore (1884), the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII (1886), Donaldson (1894), Hipkins (1911), Ridley (1968), and Hartley (1985). Since its opening in 1970, the Museum has become an important resource for education and research. A brief tour will be offered to enable visitors to hear some of the playable instruments, and it may also be possible to offer a tour of the Department of Portraits and Performance History.

The Collection's galleries, built in 1859 and still with their original showcases, are believed to be the earliest surviving purpose-built musical museum in the world. The museum retains a Victorian atmosphere and gives a feeling of discovery as one explores its crowded showcases.
Early evening: Visit to the Barnes Collection of keyboard instruments.
Saturday, August 9
Visit to the Russell Collection of Early Keyboard Instruments, which consists of over 50 instruments dating from the end of the sixteenth century through to the beginning of the nineteenth century.

Our Story
CASA was founded in 1981 by Nadine Goodman, a social worker from New York City and her husband Alejandro González, an actuary originally from San Miguel de Allende.
In 1981 and still today, the principal reason for creating such a valuable organization was the need for sexual health education, access to family planning and reproductive health services in San Miguel de Allende and the surrounding areas. CASA works to mitigate the issues faced by communities such as the high rate of adolescent pregnancies, domestic and sexual violence, and maternal mortality.
Since CASA´s founding as a non-profit organization, we have served low-income populations through health and education programs with a particular focus on adolescents and women in rural communities. CASA has reached 80,000 people throughout Mexico annually since 1981.
From CASA's Founding Until the Present
1981 – Nadine Goodman, the co-founder and first director of CASA begins giving workshops on sexual education and family planning to local youth and women from urban and rural areas.
1982 – A program on sexuality geared towards teachers, students and parents is implemented in local schools and the first training for community health youth promoters is held.
1983 – CASA hires a psychologist to assist in the school programs and additional groups of youth community health promoters form.
1984 – CASA is legally registered as a non-profit organization. The promoter scholarship program grows and works in rural communities, marginalized neighborhoods and schools.
1985 – The educational pamphlet "Our Doubts" is published based on questions surrounding sexuality from thousands of adolescents who participate in CASA's sexual education program in schools. Traditional midwives approach CASA requesting lessons.
1985 – The kindergarten for the children of adolescent mothers opens.

Not so many years ago, chess-playing computers and computer programs were patzers, easily defeated by average weekend chess senthusiasts. Garry Kasparov was a leader in the fight against the machines, outboxing IBM's highly programmed and powerful Deep Blue in a lucrative, much publicized encounter in 1996.
That event was practically erased from memory when IBM re-entered the ring a year later with Deeper Blue. At hundreds of millions of moves calculated in the blink of an eye, the monster outpaced and KO'd the champion. Kasparov was followed by other grandmasters who fell to defeat against the machines. As recently as last week, top-level Grandmaster Boris Gelfand was whipped by a program called Junior in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Grandmasters have decided to make chess computers their allies in their battles against each other. This new alliance is called "Advanced Chess." Helping to lead the way again, Kasparov held an exhibition match a year ago against Veselin Topolov, with each player using a computer for assistance.
International Chess Federation World Champion Anatoly Karpov followed suit recently in a match against Viswanathan Anand of India, Kasparov's next agreed-upon challenger. Karpov, who has been severely off form, was overwhelmed by Anand, who has been in top form. The final score was 5-1 for Anand. The use of a computer for reference, though, dilutes the importance of the result. When Kasparov played Topolov, for instance, he barely managed to draw the match. Possibly both he and Karpov are not as good against their foes when computer advice is allowed.
The just-concluded Continental Chess Association's ChessWise International tournament in Vermont, hosting a powerful group of 17 grandmasters and 4 international masters, contained many classic matchups between youth and experience. One of the most impressive was the fight between National High School Champion Patrick Hummel and former Russian and American Champion Boris Gulko (See the game with this column.)

Gary Gold used to be a prisoner of conventional television and he could only watch hockey, the sport he loves with a passion, when it appeared on one of the networks.
Then Gold struck cable and discovered numerous hockey games on sports channels and superstations. Gold thought he was in heaven.
Now Gold has a satellite dish and he truly knows the meaning of slap shot paradise. Cable is just the first step.
During the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs, when cable viewers were limited to three of the eight games being played (the Islanders and Rangers on WOR and a third game on USA) a night, Gold was able to beam down all eight telecasts that were available on the satellite.
Then, with four series in their third games, Gold tuned in three hockey games (the Canadiens-Nordiques picture was scrambled for some unknown reason). He also encountered three of the four NBA playoff games and eight of 10 baseball games scheduled for that night as he whizzed by the 140 stations on the 18 satellites circling the earth.
``If you thought the difference between regular and cable TV was something, the difference between cable and satellite is incredible,`` Gold said. ``The satellite gives me the ability to see more games and choose the game I want to see.``
Satellite television has given Gold such a wealth of programming that he went out and bought two additional video recorders. Now he has four, two he can use for cable and two for satellite (provided both games are coming off the same satellite).
``It`s a good thing I only like hockey,`` Gold said. ``Or I would never leave the house.``
Gold is one of a growing number of television viewers who are investing in satellite dishes, once a status symbol for the affluent that are becoming affordable toys for the middle class.

Fujifilm GFX 50S is the most anticipated new cameras in years. After President of Fujifilm announced about this Fujifilm's Medium Format GFX 50S digital camera, many people are excited to see what the camera will be in the launch day. GFX series cameras are Fujifilm's on-ramp into the world of medium-format digital camera. Fujifilm has a long relationship with medium-format cameras, including many rangefinder-style medium format film bodies. This medium-format camera which is planned to be available starting in early 2017. As some precious time to handle the camera during the announcement day, this GFX 50S camera handling is pretty amazing. To give you more information about GFX 50S, here are frequently asked questions about Fujifilm GFX 50S digital camera.
GFX 50S frequently-asked questionsHere are some frequently-asked questions related with Fujifilm GFX 50S Digital Camera:
1. Is it mirrorless?Absolutely, the G50S will be a mirrorless camera. Fujifilm offered one of the main reasons for going mirrorless is the degradation caused by "mirror slap." They found that mirror slap has a measurable negative impact on overall image sharpness. With a very short flange distance in the camera, it means the elements in the lenses can come closer to the sensor and give the lens designers more freedom in terms of optical design.
2. Is it autofocusing?That's right. Based on the announcement, the G50S will have autofocus, but it is important to note that it doesn't have any phase detection pixels built into the sensor like people might expect.
3.What kind of lenses can be used with it?Fujifilm GFX 50S camera will use Fujifilm's G mount lenses, which means you couldn't slap some X-series lenses on it. with its short flange distance, however, adapting other medium format lenses should be rather simple. Fujifilm is still considering the idea of adapters and lens compatibility at this time.
4. How many lenses will there be for it and when will it be available?There will be six lenses for GFX which are planned to be released in 2017. The first camera to be launched together with the GFX camera is a standard prime, the GF 63mm F/2.8 WR. It will give roughly the same field of view as a 50mm lens on a full-frame DSLR body for its larger sensor. Soon after launching the first lenses, a wide-angle standard zoom lens, the GF 32-64mm F/4 LM WR, which will act like a 25-51mm lens on a full-frame body. The next lens is a 120mm F/4 Macro R LM OIS WR, which will act like a 95mm macro lens on a full-frame body. The remain three lenses will be released before the end of 2017. Below are the three lenses to be launched next year:
- GF 110mm F/2 R LM WR (87mm full-frame equivalent field of view)
- GF 23mm F/4 LM WR (18mm full-frame equivalent field of view)
- GF 45mm F2.8 R WR (35mm full-frame equivalent field of view)
5. What about the focal plane shutter?Commonly medium-format cameras use leaf shutter, but Fujifilm GFX series does not. This is to allow them to get to a maximum shutter speed of 1/4000th of a second and also leave open the camera's option in terms of lens compatibility. This might feel like a considerable change if you are familiar with medium-format and have been using other systems. But this won't feel odd at all if you are coming from a full-frame camera.
6. How is the viewfinder?There is no integrated viewfinder you can find in the camera, but there is an accessory EVF included in the box. This is an eye-level finder with lots of resolution. If you want it, there is an optional viewfinder that rotates, in case you prefer to compose while looking down instead of straight ahead.
7. Is it weather-sealed?Yes, this camera's body will be weather-sealed on par with the high-end X-series cameras. It's meant to be a very high-end system that can be portable.
8. Who is this thing for?Many people curiously ask about who is this camera for. Based on some reviews, as a portrait photographer, this camera sounds great. The big resolution and the big sensor is quite amazing. The feel of this camera and all options offered by high-end mirrorless are really something to excited about. The next question is then, how good the lenses and color reproduction are to know whether it is an awesome landscape photography machine or not. As we know that this camera has contrast-based AF system, it is not built for sports shooters, and may not even be the first choice for the coverage portion of wedding shoots. But if the image quality is as good as they said, it could be a great option for studio shooters.
Well, there are so many questions related with this Fujifilm GFX 50S which is planned to be launched in early 2017. What we have here are the most frequently-asked questions, which hopefully help you well to figure out this new camera. Based on several questions above, we can make an early conclusion that the new system is really something to get excited about. Although there are some quibbles with it, but this is just the first generation, where Fujifilm's track record with the X-series cameras gives a lot of confidence in the company's ability to move a line of cameras forward in a way that make sense and actually adds features photographers want. Soon after the camera is available on the market, we'll see more to share about here.

The Japanese stock market is coming unraveled again, threatening to add insult to the injury Japanese share owners have already endured in a severe 2-year-old bear market.
The latest Tokyo Tumble is also recalling the dire warnings issued in 1990--and periodically since then--that the financial mess in Japan can only be bad news for U.S. stock and bond markets as well.
The theory two years ago, when the Tokyo Stock Exchange's Nikkei index (their Dow Jones average) began its steep descent from a peak of 38,916 on Dec. 29, 1989, was that Japanese investors would do whatever it took to protect the "integrity" of the Japanese market.
If that meant selling their huge U.S. stock, bond and real estate investments en masse --to bring that cash back home for use in shoring up Japanese stocks--well, that's what we'd have to expect from the ethnocentric, protectionist Japanese. And the United States, allegedly dependent on Japanese capital, would have to bear the pain.

What to do when you don't know what to do
I just don't know.
Two conversations today have got me thinking about how I don't know what to do in this season of waiting.
I think I've forgotten how to wait well.
I think I've tossed all the lessons I learned about waiting.
I think I've easily slipped into bad habits and patterns of waiting that are not very life-giving.
In some ways - and on some days - I think I've chosen to pretend we're not waiting. Because I don't want to be waiting. Again.
I looked back at past posts I wrote about Being Still and Seeking God and to be honest what I feel like writing is blah. blah. blah.
I just don't want to do any of it. And therefore I don't know what to do.
And I know many of you out there don't know what to do either because your wait has been much longer than our current unemployment wait.
And you don't have two little miracles running around reminding you of God's goodness and faithfulness. I actually have three sweet miracles sleeping in my house right now but that's a story for another day.
I feel like there are many things I should do.
I should pray or pray more. I should read the Word. I should fast. I should plead. I should petition on my husband's behalf. I should do something.
What I really want to do is not think about it. Not process. Not ponder. Not try to figure out what lesson the Lord might be trying to teach us (is He even trying to teach us a lesson?). Not discover His plan.
So I'm just sitting here in the midst of my junk. My selfishness. My laziness. My humanness. My sinfulness. I'm more focused on me than I am on Him which is probably 110% of the problem.
So maybe I do know what I need to do and I just don't want to do it.
And that realization is a tough one to swallow.

I think your feelings are completely valid. Whether you've "forgotten" how to wait?? Not sure on that, maybe it's just that we have to learn to wait during that particular time. Things are different, you are different. You are waiting for something different. So surely your feelings, loss of knowing "how" to wait... it's going to be different too? Does that make sense? I think it's ok to feel what you are feeling. Praying for you!

I rediscovered the book of Signa Bodishbaugh "The Journey to Wholeness in Christ". It's anamazing book, much is about learning to listen to the voice of God - a 40 days journey. Here's the link http://www.christanglican.com/content/ordering-resources-journey-0
I can really recommend it - it gives fresh love to be just in God's presence and listen...

Friend, I'm praying this week for you. Can't wait to talk this week about anything and everything :)

I stumbled on your blog while looking for verses on waiting for Gods perfect plan. Let me just say I waited a long time to have a baby in my arms and I have been blessed with two, nothing is scarier than have your little blessings yet feeling like you have no way of taking care of them. After my second son was born, my husband and felt that God was leading me to stay at home. Out of the blue my husband was laid off. God gave us another job which my husband worked for 5 months and was laid off again. We moved 5 hours away and still have a house that house not sold and now have a.lease as well. My soul is crying out andcraving to understand Gods purpose. Why were brought here? Why would God choose to crush this noble man I call husband? Will I be required to give up my dream of another baby? I am in free fall. I am trying to moment by moment to find joy where and when I can while I wait for Gods perfect plan. A friend of mine said faith implies an element of doubt, because if we knew for certain it would not be faith. So I wait with a faithful heart wrapped in Gods grace. I believe he has a plan and their are worse things than being laidoff 2 times in 10 months.

I think that the moment we acknowledge that we "just don't want to" is the moment God becomes the MOST powerful.
Many many blessings,

Type: Worm
Systems Affected: Windows
When W32.Spybot.DNC is executed, it will perform the following actions:
- Creates the following copy of itself:
Note: %System% is a variable that refers to the System folder. By default this is C:\Windows\System (Windows 95/98/Me), C:\Winnt\System32 (Windows NT/2000), or C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP).
- Adds the value:
"Windows Time Server" = "TimeSRV.exe"
to the following registry keys
so that the worm is executed every time Windows starts.
- Connects to an IRC channel on TCP port 6667 and listens for commands from a remote attacker. These commands may allow the attacker to perform some of the following actions on the infected computer:
- Download and execute files.
- Scan the network for servers running backdoor Trojan horses.
- List, stop, and start processes.
- Launch Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
- Steal system information and send it to the attacker.

- Open a backdoor port.
- Delete, create, and list files.
- Perform port redirection.
- Flush local DNS cache.
- Start a socks proxy.
- Spreads to shared resources using a predefined list of user names and passwords. If successful, the worm will attempt to copy itself to the remote computer.
- Scans for computers and tries to exploit one of the following vulnerabilities:
- The DCOM RPC Vulnerability (described in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-026) using TCP port 135.
- The Microsoft Windows Local Security Authority Service Remote Buffer Overflow (described in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-011).

Symantec Security Response encourages all users and administrators to adhere to the following basic security "best practices":
- Use a firewall to block all incoming connections from the Internet to services that should not be publicly available. By default, you should deny all incoming connections and only allow services you explicitly want to offer to the outside world.
- Enforce a password policy. Complex passwords make it difficult to crack password files on compromised computers. This helps to prevent or limit damage when a computer is compromised.
- Ensure that programs and users of the computer use the lowest level of privileges necessary to complete a task. When prompted for a root or UAC password, ensure that the program asking for administration-level access is a legitimate application.
- Disable AutoPlay to prevent the automatic launching of executable files on network and removable drives, and disconnect the drives when not required. If write access is not required, enable read-only mode if the option is available.
- Turn off file sharing if not needed. If file sharing is required, use ACLs and password protection to limit access. Disable anonymous access to shared folders. Grant access only to user accounts with strong passwords to folders that must be shared.
- Turn off and remove unnecessary services. By default, many operating systems install auxiliary services that are not critical. These services are avenues of attack. If they are removed, threats have less avenues of attack.
- If a threat exploits one or more network services, disable, or block access to, those services until a patch is applied.
- Always keep your patch levels up-to-date, especially on computers that host public services and are accessible through the firewall, such as HTTP, FTP, mail, and DNS services.
- Configure your email server to block or remove email that contains file attachments that are commonly used to spread threats, such as .vbs, .bat, .exe, .pif and .scr files.
- Isolate compromised computers quickly to prevent threats from spreading further. Perform a forensic analysis and restore the computers using trusted media.
- Train employees not to open attachments unless they are expecting them. Also, do not execute software that is downloaded from the Internet unless it has been scanned for viruses. Simply visiting a compromised Web site can cause infection if certain browser vulnerabilities are not patched.
- If Bluetooth is not required for mobile devices, it should be turned off. If you require its use, ensure that the device's visibility is set to "Hidden" so that it cannot be scanned by other Bluetooth devices. If device pairing must be used, ensure that all devices are set to "Unauthorized", requiring authorization for each connection request. Do not accept applications that are unsigned or sent from unknown sources.
- For further information on the terms used in this document, please refer to the Security Response glossary.

Type: Worm
Systems Affected: Windows
The following instructions pertain to all current and recent Symantec antivirus products, including the Symantec AntiVirus and Norton AntiVirus product lines.
- Disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP).
- Update the virus definitions.
- Run a full system scan and delete all the files detected as W32.Spybot.DNC.
- Delete the value that was added to the registry.
1. To disable System Restore (Windows Me/XP)
If you are running Windows Me or Windows XP, we recommend that you temporarily turn off System Restore. Windows Me/XP uses this feature, which is enabled by default, to restore the files on your computer in case they become damaged. If a virus, worm, or Trojan infects a computer, System Restore may back up the virus, worm, or Trojan on the computer.
Windows prevents outside programs, including antivirus programs, from modifying System Restore. Therefore, antivirus programs or tools cannot remove threats in the System Restore folder. As a result, System Restore has the potential of restoring an infected file on your computer, even after you have cleaned the infected files from all the other locations.
Also, a virus scan may detect a threat in the System Restore folder even though you have removed the threat.
For instructions on how to turn off System Restore, read your Windows documentation, or one of the following articles:
- "How to disable or enable Windows Me System Restore"
- "How to turn off or turn on Windows XP System Restore"
Note: When you are completely finished with the removal procedure and are satisfied that the threat has been removed, re-enable System Restore by following the instructions in the aforementioned documents.
For additional information, and an alternative to disabling Windows Me System Restore, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article, "Antivirus Tools Cannot Clean Infected Files in the _Restore Folder ," Article ID: Q263455.
2. To update the virus definitions
Symantec Security Response fully tests all the virus definitions for quality assurance before they are posted to our servers. There are two ways to obtain the most recent virus definitions:
- Running LiveUpdate, which is the easiest way to obtain virus definitions: These virus definitions are posted to the LiveUpdate servers once each week (usually on Wednesdays), unless there is a major virus outbreak. To determine whether definitions for this threat are available by LiveUpdate, refer to the Virus Definitions (LiveUpdate).
- Downloading the definitions using the Intelligent Updater: The Intelligent Updater virus definitions are posted daily. You should download the definitions from the Symantec Security Response Web site and manually install them. To determine whether definitions for this threat are available by the Intelligent Updater, refer to the Virus Definitions (Intelligent Updater).
The Intelligent Updater virus definitions are available: Read "How to update virus definition files using the Intelligent Updater" for detailed instructions.
3. To scan for and delete the infected files
- Start your Symantec antivirus program and make sure that it is configured to scan all the files.
- For Norton AntiVirus consumer products: Read the document, "How to configure Norton AntiVirus to scan all files."
- For Symantec AntiVirus Enterprise products: Read the document, "How to verify that a Symantec Corporate antivirus product is set to scan all files."
- Run a full system scan.
- If any files are detected as infected with W32.Spybot.DNC, click Delete.
Note: If your Symantec antivirus product reports that it cannot delete an infected file, Windows may be using the file. To fix this, run the scan in Safe mode. For instructions, read the document, "How to start the computer in Safe Mode." Once you have restarted in Safe mode, run the scan again.
(After the files are deleted, you can leave the computer in Safe mode and proceed with section 4. When that is done, restart the computer in Normal mode.)
4. To delete the value from the registry
Important: Symantec strongly recommends that you back up the registry before making any changes to it. Incorrect changes to the registry can result in permanent data loss or corrupted files. Modify the specified keys only. Read the document, "How to make a backup of the Windows registry ," for instructions.
- Click Start > Run.
- Type regedit
Then click OK.
- Navigate to the keys:
- In the right pane, delete the value:
"Windows Time Server" = "TimeSRV.exe"
- Exit the Registry Editor.
