Did you know that almost all the data you send and receive over the Internet is transmitted unencrypted and can be easily stolen? Spammers, hackers, data thieves, identity thieves and just about all kinds of bad guys simply love it. And yes, this list may just as well include even your own government, your Internet Service Provider or an overly curious boss or spouse. If you are not protecting yourselves, you are an easy prey for them!
A sophisticated, yet easy to use system that would protect the sensitive data you send and receive over the Internet using an encryption technique so powerful that even the US Department of Defense and the US Army is using it for protecting information classified TOP SECRET? Encryption technique so powerful you would need at least a few hundred years to break even with huge computer networks? Encryption technique so powerful that even the best funded intelligence agencies cannot break it?
Congratulations: You've just found such a solution. Welcome to IdentityCloaker.com!
We will protect you from Internet spies and prying eyes!
The technology used to cause you harm is becoming more and more affordable and widespread among the bad guys. What was restricted to intelligence agencies and law enforcement just a few years ago, is now available on the open market. The danger is *very* real and far more serious than you may think. Obviously, we cannot protect you from every possible threat on the Internet. But we will do our best to help you survive the Wild Wild West. And we will do more than that!
What is Identity Cloaker?
In short, Identity Cloaker could be defined as an "Internet Privacy Protection Service". Its main goal is to protect your privacy by encrypting the data sent over the Internet in the most vulnerable part of the data transmission path, and by hiding your physical location and IP address from prying eyes. There are, however, more advantages...
Do you want to see a website that is normally blocked by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or network administrator, or that can not be viewed from your country? Do you manage Internet marketing campaigns targeted to specific geographical locations through IP address based content delivery and want to see the advertisements exactly as your potential customers in different countries see them? Identity Cloaker can help you with that too.
What is Identity Cloaker *NOT* ?
1. Identity Cloaker is not a "Free Proxy Server Service".
Identity Cloaker is not some rubbish free proxy service that hands you a huge list of so called free proxy servers, that are either overloaded, not working, or even infected by viruses and other nasty stuff. We do not rely on rubbish and neither should you! Instead, IdentityCloaker.com operates its own growing network of private servers around the world.
It's also important to note that free proxy servers are not usually free at all. In most situations the administrators of the physical server computers do not even know they are running a proxy server. They simply either misconfigured some proxy server software they intended to install for their own needs, or their server had been compromised by a hacker who then installed such proxy server software and probably caused some more evil along the way.
There are also reports of some free proxy servers being directly owned by the bad guys. They may be owned by hackers operating on their own, and sometimes even in organized gangs. They use such free proxy servers as a lure that helps them in phishing attacks, gather your web surfing habits, steal your sensitive information sent through such servers etc. The risk is too high!
2. Identity Cloaker is not a "Web Based Proxy Service".
Web based proxy services (those websites you visit and enter the URL address you want to access into a form field provided on such a website), are usually Perl or PHP scripts that hide your IP address. To use them, you must change your surfing habits and they do not work in every situation because they have to rewrite the source html code - for example to change image paths. This very often results in problems.
Not every page is displayed, or is displayed incorrectly. SSL protected websites (those whose address in the URL bar starts with https://) and websites needing authentication, such as membership websites, work rarely. Web proxies can easily be blocked by network administrators. And even if their domain is not blocked (yet), the transferred data is unencrypted and it's easy for the network admin to recognize what you do with such a service. Imagine a situation when you want to visit a website that's normally blocked. You use web proxy and visit the blocked web through it. However, the network administrator (or your Internet Service Provider, boss, spouse or hacker...) can see you visited the web proxy website - but they can also see what you were doing when using it! They can find out the visited websites and see the transferred data. The consequences could be dire. Web based proxy services offer a very low level of safety. They hide your IP address and allow you to access *some* websites you normally could not. But that's about it.
3. Identity Cloaker is not "volunteer dependent".
Some anonymity networks and privacy protection services, including the popular TOR, rely on volunteers which results in unpredictable quality of service, usually resulting in very low data transfer speeds and temporal malfunction. Although such services can very often offer a great level of security, they are intended mostly for transferring relatively small amount of data.
By design, such services are generally unsuitable for everyday use and for any services with high bandwidth requirements such as streaming radio or video etc. They are also mostly intended for power-users only, their complexity makes it difficult to use for the average computer user.
How does Identity Cloaker work?
You simply download a small PC software application (no installation necessary), run it, and choose one of our private proxy servers which you would like to be connected through - or simply hit the Connect button if you want to have one selected automatically.
When you click the Connect button, a secure data tunnel encrypted with a military class encryption cipher will be created to the selected proxy server. This technique is commonly called SSH tunneling.
If you use any standard web browser, such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Firefox or Safari (on Mac OS), there is nothing more you have to do, it will be automatically set to use the new secure tunnel for all of your web browsing.
If you use a less common web browser, it's still possible to instruct the Identity Cloaker application to cloak it too. It's now also possible to cloak most other applications too.
Enough talking, let's take a look at the most common situations in pictures:
You visit a website - let's call it something.com from your computer, your computer sends a request to something.com and retrieves the data sent back from it. This is actually an oversimplification but generally, it's how it works. The data on the whole path of the communication between you and something.com is normally unencrypted (unless secure https/ssl connection is used). Something.com can easily discover your physical location by reading your IP address. And the part of the communication between you and your Internet Service Provider is vulnerable to data eavesdropping.
You visit a website - again, let's call it something.com. The request is sent through the established encrypted secure tunnel to the chosen Identity Cloaker proxy server. This is done in the background - you do not even have to know about it. The proxy server then sends the request to something.com on your behalf, receives the answer and forwards it back to you - again through the encrypted secure tunnel. At all time, something.com was communicating with the proxy server and does not even know about you! The proxy server works as the middleman.
For more examples, please take a look at our illustrations at the How it works page.
How large is the IdenityCloaker.com network of secured proxy servers?
Our network of secured private proxy servers is growing all the time. Currently, we have our servers located in Germany, Netherlands, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Ireland, Sweden, Canada, USA, Poland, Russia, Switzerland, Australia, Spain, Norway, Portugal, Austria, Hong Kong, Singapore and Czech Republic. If there is interest, we may also add servers in other countries and parts of the world too.
Our system is very flexible and has been designed to be able to increase its capacity easily, without sacrificing quality of the service offered to our valued customers.
Right now, there are 34 servers with 550 IPs in 18 countries in the Identity Cloaker network
We should mention one thing. When we talk about "proxy servers" we mean our own secured private proxy servers. Those are either physical computers or Virtual Dedicated Servers we have rented in several data centers throughout the world. We pay a monthly fee for all of them. They all have 100Mbit or 1Gbit ports with monthly traffic allowance usually in the terabytes.
If you have no idea what that means, it means that we have enough capacity to offer any customer more than reasonable broadband speed of data transfer. We do not rely on some low quality free proxy servers that are almost always oversaturated, overloaded, and may be even infected by malevolent software threatening - not helping, your privacy!
Another important characteristic of the IdentityCloaker.com system is that the data transmitted between you and our private proxy servers is encrypted using a military class encryption technique! This is an extremely important feature, not offered even by premium services offering access to private proxy servers.
What is necessary to be able to use Identity Cloaker?
As long as you can view this page and are using a Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10 computer or run MS Windows XP, Vista or 7 or 8 or 10 in a virtualized environment, or you have any modern Mac computer you should be able to use Identity Cloaker. There are no special requirements, really.
You can now also connect to our VPN (Virtual Private Network) servers using any Android smartphone or tablet, iPhone or iPad.
Identity Cloaker will work even if you have to access the Internet through an "internal" or company proxy server which is a common situation in some companies and institutions. However, if Identity Cloaker does not work for you for any reason and our technical support is not able to help you solve the problem, we will refund your order without delay. Please see the "Fair Deal Guarantee" info box below. There is absolutely no risk for you!
By the way, there is one thing we should mention but it's somewhat controversial... Identity Cloaker does use an extremely powerful technique that allows you to override any web browsing restrictions set on the company firewall level by its administrator. This technique is sometimes colloquially called "punching holes in firewalls".
Identity Cloaker creates a secure tunnel connection between your PC (or another device, see above) and one of the Identity Cloaker proxy servers. Once it is established (through the company firewall), you gain the same web access rights as the Identity Cloaker proxy server itself. And since the proxy server can access just about any website, so can you...and without anyone knowing!
For more details about how this all works, please take a look at the How it works page.
Identity Cloaker is a very powerful tool, please use it responsibly and with caution!
It all sounds a bit complicated, how easy is it to use?
Identity Cloaker is a complex and sophisticated system, no doubt about it. However, from the very beginning, it has been designed to be very easy to use even for the average computer user. You do not really need to care about what's going on in the background, you do not need to worry about the technical stuff at all.
All you need to do is to download a small Windows PC or Mac application (Android and iOS solutions are available too), follow a few easy to understand on-screen instructions (normally just hitting the Enter button a few times) to "install" it and click the "Connect" button. How easy is that ;)
Of course, if you do want to know what is going on in the background, or you just love the technical stuff, we have no problem with that either. Just take a look at the How it works page, the Frequently Asked Questions, or contact us through our helpdesk. We will be more than happy to answer any question you may have.
UPDATE: Mostly intended for the demanding power users, we now offer also OpenVPN and "L2TP over IPSec" access to all of our servers beside of our standard service! The VPN access is currently being offered as a part of the standard subscription service, with no additional fee.
How much is your privacy worth?
We believe that privacy and safety should not be luxury. While it would be great if we could offer our services for free, this is, unfortunately, not possible. And in fact, this is the good news for you! By charging a small fee we are able to deliver a high quality service, and we can keep improving it. Identity Cloaker is a premium service, but don't worry, our prices are not premium :)
So how much does it cost to get access to our broadband secured private proxy servers, super safe surfing through SSH tunneling and VPN backed by 256-bit military class encryption, our own custom-coded Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10/Mac compatible client software and our exclusive private membership website?
Less than €6.67 a month! Yes, that's six Euros and sixty seven Cents - you can use our currency conversion tool to see the amount in your local currency.
So again, what are the main benefits of Identity Cloaker?
Protect your sensitive data sent over the Internet Access websites that would be normally inaccessible to you Hide your physical location when surfing the Internet Make it look as if you were from a different country Make it impossible to eavesdrop your Internet communication Unban yourself from Internet forums and discussion boards A small PC/Mac client application and mobile device support The client application can run from a USB flash drive Per user license - use on any and all computers you operate Can be used on Windows accounts with no admin rights Servers in 18 countries = fast access from almost anywhere Broadband speed = good for everyday and frequent use Each license valid for all family members sharing the same household Different VPN type access for the demanding power users (see FAQ) Stable EU company - Identity Cloaker has been online since 2008! Avoid Internet censorship
We will protect your privacy!
You have nothing to lose. If at any time in the first 14 days after your initial order you feel that you do not need our services, or that the quality of our product does not meet your expectations, simply let us know and your order will be promptly refunded, no questions asked.

Direct from the Broadway company, Ben Levi Ross will lead the previously announced national tour of Dear Evan Hansen. The touring production of the 2017 Tony Award- and Broadway.com Audience Choice Award-winning musical will launch in October 2018 at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. The tour will go on to play more than 50 cities, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Atlanta, Boston and many more as part of the 2018-19 season. Additional casting will be announced at a later date.
Ross made his Broadway debut in Dear Evan Hansen last fall as a cover for Connor, Jared and Evan at the Music Box Theatre. "Ben has the instincts, humor, emotional transparency and vocal chops to perfectly introduce this extraordinary character to so many cities across America," said director Michael Greif, in a statement. "The creative team and I have been impressed with Ben since first meeting a year ago, and we've watched him develop as an understudy in our Broadway company into a great performer and interpreter of this remarkable role."
The show follows outsider Evan Hansen, who feels invisible to his peers, his crush and his own mother. A letter he writes leads to an incident with a classmate, a series of lies and an entire community movement that catapults Evan into the spotlight. As the momentum builds and stakes rise, he struggles to hold onto his secret without jeopardizing his relationship with the ones he holds close.
Dear Evan Hansen features a Tony- and Grammy-winning score by the Oscar-winning songwriting team of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (La La Land, A Christmas Story), a Tony-winning book by Steven Levenson, choreography by Danny Mefford, Tony-winning orchestrations by Alex Lacamoire and direction by Michael Greif (Rent, Next to Normal, If/Then).

Congressman: Absence of "change" underlines fact that both parties follow same agenda on major issues
Congressman Ron Paul has slammed Barack Obama's foreign policy, saying it is identical to that of his predecessor George W. Bush, proving once again that both parties follow the same agenda on major issues.
Listen to the audio of the interview with Ron Paul below:
Paul compared Obama's pre-election promises to those of his predecessor George W. Bush, who before his election in 2001 guaranteed that the U.S. would not be the policeman of the world or engage in nation building.
Since the inauguration, Obama has sent 30,000 more troops into Afghanistan and and rapidly expanded the Bush-era bombing raids on Pakistan.
"Even though Obama was the so-called peace candidate and was going to bring our troops home from that war in Iraq, I'm afraid there's evidence now that shows he's going to pursue the same foreign policy – which was my argument during the campaign, that no matter what happens, both major parties support the same foreign policy, the same monetary policy, the same welfare policy and there's never really any change," said the Congressman.
As we reported last month, Obama's war chest for 2009 alone, when one includes the budget of the defense department, the vast majority of which is related to spending on new fighter jets and other weapons-related programs, is a whopping $805 billion dollars.
Every single component bar one of the DoD budget is up 5-10% compared to 2008, with the budget for "military construction" increasing by a mammoth 19.1%.
Meanwhile, despite public pronouncements by Obama that a plan to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq is in progress, the details of the agreement actually establish a permanent presence of a sizable occupying force in perpetuity.
Obama swept to power on the promise that he would "immediately" withdraw troops from Iraq.
In reality, after the "withdrawal" of U.S. troops in 19 months, "Mr. Obama plans to leave behind a "residual force" of tens of thousands of troops to continue training Iraqi security forces, hunt down foreign terrorist cells and guard American institutions," reported the New York Times.
A senior military officer spelled it out more plainly to the Los Angeles TImes, "'When President Obama said we were going to get out within 16 months, some people heard, 'get out,' and everyone's gone. But that is not going to happen,' the officer said."
Ron Paul also discussed Obama's monetary policy, noting that every time a new government initiative was announced to supposedly rescue the economy, the stock markets sink.
Paul said that he also did not hesitate to slam Obama's policies on civil liberties, especially on liberal talk shows that were sympathetic with the new president.
"I don't think there's any reason for us to rejoice," said the Congressman.

On June 5, 1944, more than 1,000 British bombers drop 5,000 tons of bombs on German gun batteries placed at the Normandy assault area, while 3,000 Allied ships cross the English Channel in preparation for the invasion of Normandy—D-Day.
READ MORE: How D-Day Changed the Course of WWII
The day of the invasion of occupied France had been postponed repeatedly since May, mostly because of bad weather and the enormous tactical obstacles involved. Finally, despite less than ideal weather conditions—or perhaps because of them—General Eisenhower decided on June 5 to set the next day as D-Day, the launch of the largest amphibious operation in history. Ike knew that the Germans would be expecting postponements beyond the sixth, precisely because weather conditions were still poor.
Among those Germans confident that an Allied invasion could not be pulled off on the sixth was Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, who was still debating tactics with Field Marshal Karl Rundstedt. Runstedt was convinced that the Allies would come in at the narrowest point of the Channel, between Calais and Dieppe; Rommel, following Hitler's intuition, believed it would be Normandy. Rommel's greatest fear was that German air inferiority would prevent an adequate defense on the ground; it was his plan to meet the Allies on the coast—before the Allies had a chance to come ashore. Rommel began constructing underwater obstacles and minefields, and set off for Germany to demand from Hitler personally more panzer divisions in the area.
READ MORE: D:Day: An Interactive
Bad weather and an order to conserve fuel grounded much of the German air force on June 5; consequently, its reconnaissance flights were spotty. That night, more than 1,000 British bombers unleashed a massive assault on German gun batteries on the coast. At the same time, an Allied armada headed for the Normandy beaches in Operation Neptune, an attempt to capture the port at Cherbourg. But that was not all. In order to deceive the Germans, phony operations were run; dummy parachutists and radar-jamming devices were dropped into strategically key areas so as to make German radar screens believe there was an Allied convoy already on the move. One dummy parachute drop succeeded in drawing an entire German infantry regiment away from its position just six miles from the actual Normandy landing beaches. All this effort was to scatter the German defenses and make way for Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of Normandy.

We have a team, a support crew, some boats, some bikes, cool lets go hurt ourselves. - 10:23
This race is a fairly large commitment of time, training and money to compete in, simply getting through 48 hours without sleep while navigating and racing in different disciplines is not trivial. Unfortunately none of my team mates from last year were able to compete this year (Knee Injury for one, another in South Africa, and the last not wanting to try the full length race this year). Fortunately I have been able to convince 3 other friends to come along and race. Bruce, who I compete in Triple Tri with and other events over the past few years. Craig who has been doing some rides with Bilbys recently and has done a 24 hour mtb solo and is a damn tough bugger. Danealle who raced the full Geo last year with the Pink Ladies and thus has experience and proven toughness. Rock on, one hell keen team out there to have fun on the full course. For support crew I have Jane (sister) returning, Zoe a Bilbys friend who wants to find out what Geo is about with the aim of possibly competing next year, Tom (Zoe's partner, who is likely to be roped in as support next year), James a mountain biking friend with bike mechanic experience to wrench and stuff and Louise (Jane's flatmate) who sounded enchanted with the support thing after Jane described it last year (I hope Louise fails to realise last year Jane had a remarkably easy support job due to the course structure, but hey if you wont tell her I wont...) Next we had to get a pair of double sea kayaks, preferably fibreglass (lighter and generally thinner and faster) and ensure we had the rest of the gear needed (lights and batteries sufficient to last two nights in a row when we may be separated from our support crew for a long time), and generally commit to doing the race. I have a new toy I bought which will take care of one of the above requirements, I will probably mention it next week when I get it, other than that we have been out doing some training and sussing out some of the gear and talking in the team about what conditions have been like previously and will be like this year. Our main goal is to have fun and complete the course, we think we stand a good chance of meeting both goals. Bruce is overseas for work this week, however last night Craig, Danealle and I went out for a hill hike on Mt Ainslie which was fun, this was after a paddle yesterday morning with Danealle. This morning Craig and I both rode with the Bilbys road bunch and then headed to the lake for another paddle. I guess if nothing else this gives me something to get off my lazy arse an do some exercise for <g>. The team motto for the event is "Because its there and fun will be had" and the bio I put in with the race entry was 4 Canberrans who constantly find there is more fun to be had outdoors than in our loungerooms.
Glad to be doing a ride again - 10:23
Kind of no longer saturday - 10:23
Dreaming - 10:23
However there was one thing at the Sydney Olympics that I was glued to whenever I was near a tv, the same thing happened for the Utah/Salt Lake City winter Olympics and then even for the Athens Olympics I did actually watch one thing on tv. So far I have not seen more than a minute or two of Olympics coverage on screen, when I have seen it on at a cafe or similar I have tuned in for a few seconds. So what is missing from the Olympics coverage this time? Roy and HG with The Dream of course. This show added to the fun and humour of the Sydney Olympics. It increased the value of the Utah winter Olympics (I actually enjoy watching a fair amount of the winter Olympics) and it made the non stop coverage around the country of Athens more bearable. Maybe it is because Channel 7 spent so much money to get the rights for the Olympics they feel they can not make fun of the event. Maybe it is as is suggested in the article about the lack of the Dream, no studio audience due to Chinese security and crowd restrictions and the bad timezone issues make it unworkable for channel 7. It is interesting to note there is a lot of criticism going around that this is the worst Olympics coverage in recent memory and most articles discussing this seem to note people are calling for the Dream to come back rather than the Yum Cha thing on each morning. Fortunately though tv rights are taken there is nothing stopping Roy and HG commenting on the Olympics on the radio, which they are doing with aplomb on Triple J every afternoon. At least there is still some Australian piss taking going on, even if it is not live from Beijing. So I guess what I am saying, in my opinion at least, the lack of this show on the Olympics coverage means there is no reason to turn a tv on this month. I spoke to a few people at work and I hear a number of people with little interest in the Olympics have a similar view.
Obscurity, P=NP etc, Hash Visualisation - 10:23
It is interesting to see some companies such as Kryptonite eventually reacted, others seem intent on denying public information, or trying to shut down people who know about it. In computing it is a well known fact (although still ignored by too many people/companies) that security through obscurity will not work, public design and analysis by experts in the field however does work and should be used for things that need to be secure. Although one aspect that comes to mind here is that in the case of locks you may not want to make them impossible as other attack vectors are then used. As the article mentions crooks seem to prefer using a hammer (or maybe explosives) over opening the locks through lock exploits. There were some discussions about this in the car that were I think linked to by Schneier a few years back. Next was an interesting wikipedia page linked to by kottke, a list of unsolved problems from a number of different field, those listed in Computing are familiar, however looking through the collected information on those in other fields is pretty fascinating. Mmmmmm wikipedia goodness. Catching up on some LWN reading and I see the mention of a new OpenSSH version approaching, in the list of new features is "Experimental SSH fingerprint visualisation" with a paper (pdf) linked. So I download and had a read of the paper, largely to see what sort of images they generate. It is good to see some work on what is one of the biggest security weaknesses out there, the humans using secure systems.
British "Whose Line Is It Anyway" - 10:23
Anyway the show is an theatre sports style improvisation show with comedians acting out various provided (often by the audience) situations on the spot. I have to say this is one of the funniest shows I have ever seen, probably helped by the fact it has some of my favourite comedians as regulars, Paul Merton and Stephen Fry. I have been watching the tape I have of the show a bit last night and tonight and I have been laughing almost constantly. This truly is brilliantly entertaining, highly recommended. For more information there are some sites with more of it and of course something Wikipedia.
I am obviously slack - 10:23
Yell for Cadel, Australia's best ever XC mountain biker won the tour! - 10:23
I have been a fan of Cadel for a while, I guess since reading mtb magazines through out the 90s and marshaling at the mtb National Championship races in Majura Pines in Canberra when he won the title here. That he won the MTB World Cup series for two years in a row, has also won the Road World Cup series two years running, won the Road World Champs and now the Tour de France it is fairly obvious to all he is the most complete successful cyclist Australia has ever produced. I still remember watching him lead through some of the single track at Majura in 1997 from where I was marshaling, seeming to be riding on smooth pavement through sections I rattle and bounce over, sure it was a shame when he left mountain biking, I am after all a mountain biker at heart, but there were as we all know bigger achievements in his future, there is nothing in the mtb world that could possibly excite a nation the way he has the last few years. For the entire tour this year Cadel and his team seemed to be well organised, know what they were doing and went about everything the right way. Leopard also dealt with the race well, thus as Andy Schleck has said it definitely seems the best rider did indeed win this year. The final time trial was an incredible hour of viewing, seeing Cadel so focused and confidant at the start and then he almost won the stage and blasted away everyone else. Of course seeing him get air on a time trial bike was pretty cool too. I really hope this helps move Australian's recognition of bikes and cycling forward, the reception for Cadel in Melbourne on Friday was awesome, with St Kilda rd lined 5 deep on each side all the way along and then Federation square packed so full along with all of us watching who did not make it down. The media coverage across the board has been positive and pretty good. Now we can all hope for a repeat performance next year. Rock on Cadel.
My software works too well, change it back - 10:23
It appears the profiling and lower memory foot print work various gurus in the kde and gnome and similar camps has paid dividends as there appears to be a pretty big drop in usage and memory leaks here and everything feels a bit faster all of which is good news. Not that I have done any real testing but perceived feel is relevant to some extent in a computing environment. The most amusing thing here I thought was my interpretation of how he asked the question, it sounded almost as if something was wrong. As if James was saying "my computer is not using enough memory, and is running to fast, fix it, make it as slow and hoggy as it used to be". I guess at least he was not about to request a change to a computing system that seems to constantly get slower and more user unfriendly with every major release.
Finally faster - 10:23
Back in November I mentioned this to Steve Walsh of Nerdvana, he told me they do colo, and would throw in new hardware (leasing arrangement) all for less per month than we are currently paying and colocated in a rather nice facility in Sydney. Martijn and I thought this sounded tops so signed up. Finally we shifted all the domains and config and data and everything across for the final time last night and we now are actively using the new server for all domains we host and everything else. The new machine is definitely a nice step up, now a Dual 3 GHz Xeon with Hyperthreading, 1 GB of RAM and 2 250 GB SATA drives configured in RAID 1 for full redundancy. Damn this new machine is fast, operations that used to take a few minutes now happen in 2 or 3 seconds. Finally I can do a few things I have been holding off from doing on the old machine for a while, either for lack of disk space, lack of memory or incredibly high load caused by trying to do the things I had in mind. Heck I may even add some sort of comments thing to this diary (Jane reckons I need comments here) One of the other problems with the old machine was I had never gotten it to cleanly boot up into a kernel newer than 2.2.20pre2, which meant ancient firewalling, probably a few vulnerabilities, inability to try some new things that may have been interesting and a few other issues. The machine was also running Woody, so it is nice to have Sarge with a few even newer bits on the new machine. RIP calyx.svana.org, long live calyx.svana.org (we did not change the name, which was confusing once or twice while moving config over).

What is happening to these magazines - 10:23
Anyway I purchased a copy of the magazine Ausralian Mountain Bike, it appears my subscriptiuon ran out as it did not arrive at work the past few weeks, anyway I was told by a few friends in the past two weeks that this issue was kind of abysmal, I was hoping they would be wrong and all that, however I think this time I have to agree, the only articles I found interesting this issue were the columns by Jim Trail and TTfH (Tony Fathers), and to some extent this may simpy be because they are friends. I think the thing that turned me off in this issues was simply nothing grabbed my attention, most issues a least one or two stories/articles manage to look good and turn out to be good reading, I suppose I should try to quantify why this time nothing grabbedmy attention and usually something can, I think I will instead simply leave my brain on downtime tonight however.

One thing I have noticed is I have not been keen to sit around and work on silly category posts much (various/ilmiwac). Not sure why. On the whole maybe I am just not as worthy of the cool t-shirt Andrew gave me, especially when you consider the fact there are still no photos of my non existent cat on here to provide some blogthenticity.
What to do in Denver^WCairns when you're dead^Won holiday? - 10:23
Dave and Julie were there recently and went on a Kayak trip, which was probably fun. This is the part of Australia where glass bottom boats are rather common, heck the Kayak/Canoe you really want up there is one of these transparent canoes I saw on BoingBoing the other day. Apart from the fact my arms may drop off 3 hours into any attempt to Kayak somewhere I have no planned something like that. Is a reef trip a good idea I wonder? I will probably ride up to Port Douglas one day, maybe look for nice swimming rivers/holes/etc on the way up and down to stop off at. I will probably look for a bit more mountain biking while there or maybe a walk or some trail running. But I really have no idea what to do apart from read books on the beach (which could not be all bad I guess). Anyone have suggestions?
Trying to be fair to students with a few doing damage. - 10:23
We could block ssh entirely to the student networks however that is not a good thing as students should be able to log on and do work from remote locations. The solution we are looking at is accounting for all student traffic on both incoming and outgoing such that ssh is blocked to all but one machine. Then on this one machine we have the netfilter patch that lets us account for traffic on the INPUT chain on a per user basis. This will mean we can set student quotas for all data, or maybe even simply subtract the ssh incoming traffic from their web quotas also. I guess students will simply have to get used to using one machine to access the rest of the student systems, should not be hard for them and will stop the people abusing the system.

Through the pearly gates in a 200 mph fireball - 10:23
I remember watching the old series with Clarkson in it when I was living in the UK in 1993, though at the time I paid some small interest in cars (such as watching Ayrton Senna in F1 races) I do not recall Top Gear being so amusing. I suspect they really ramped up the humour of it when they changed the format and started the new series in 2002. My amusement at the pearly gates expression has me trying to think of a few expressions for how various people may want to go, somewhat macabre maybe but I am trying to think of it in a similar manner to my Fairy Tales in the key of Klingon post. Alas nothing comes to mind yet.

Ghosts is over - 10:23
We had a rather large number of people at the ghosts session, I wonder if maybe this was a bad thing. It seemed a times we did not need quite so many people. One thing I noticed is the ghosts session was really for the new lca team to be able to learn from previous organising teams. Thinking about who was present I dont really see that we could have left many out. Maybe if the LA committee were not so strongly reccomended. For future ghosts I wonder if maybe just the LA president and Treasurer would be enough. I suppose LA was strongly represented at the meeting due to the fact Rusty and Mikal are both on the committee and both lca people also, Michael Davies as the 2004 Lead organiser was necessary and also is on the LA committee. Mark Tearle was there from Perth but mostly there as the LA treasurer, we already have Tony Breeds on our lca crew from Perth. So looking a it this year the LA committee was almost all there by necessity, so bringing AfC and Stewart in for LA to meet afterwards kind of made sense. The thing that strikes me is we had ~ 20 people in the meeting room all weekend, fortunately it worked well for us, we got through almost the entire agenda and people did not interrupt with out reason. However it just seems busy with that many people there. Also with the LA meeting at the end of the weekend before everyone flew out there was a bit of rushing and possibly some things left off the agenda or not discussed that should be. I think a large part of why the LA thing happened was due to the make up of who would already be there. I would be nice to be able to avoid that in the future for ghosts if possible I think. I dont mean it as a criticism really as it did not impact heavily on us this weekend, more just something to think about for the future. As for the lca crew, we have a whole lot of new ideas stemming from this weekend, and some action items and the like. One thing that is very important is we need to be more active in getting the word out into the community and the pulic at large abotu this conference and what is happening. Time to send a lot of people email <g>
Caffeine and glycogen storage, maybe the roadies have it right - 10:23
The professor in charge of the study at RMIT is John Hawley, a google search turned up the article in question. It is quite a common practice among cyclists to head to a coffee shop after a ride, though most of us do not consume 6 cups of coffee and a loaf of bread, we do consume some food and coffee at these gatherings fairly often. Good to see we can even claim the post ride coffee is part of our important training schedule and recovery plan.
Artists and analysing their music - 10:23
I have not researched this to check my memory is correct, however Ben Folds has talked about this in interviews in the past. If my memory of these interviews is correct, the song was to some extent based on a harrowing experience he had when he was around 18-20. He and his partner at the time went through the process of having an abortion and all the emotions and the shit that happened around the event weighed heavily on him, this song is an outcome of the experiences surrounding that event. However Ben Folds is to a large extent not alone among musical artists saying, on the whole, over analysing lyrics in his work is not what he intends or expects, many artists seem astounded by the amount of analysis that goes into lyrics they write, often according to them written simply for the rhyme, or to work with the song and containing no deeper meaning. The fans doing the analysis may of course argue the subconcious has other ideas, who knows.
False advertising on ride speed - 10:23
Though there was a CORC race on that arguably I should have done as I need the fitness and speed from the race I decided to take the soft option and head out for this road ride. However upon finding the bunch I see Allan's email had convinced around 30 of the Vets club members into joining in the fun, this included the likes of Nick, Chris, Pete H who like to go fast and a few others who, due to there being no race this weekend decided it would be fun to go a bit faster. Thus we ended up doing the 100 KM ride with an average speed of 34 KMh, which fortunately was easy if you stayed sitting in the bunch the whole time, however it was entertaining to tease Allan on his ride with far more people and a much higher average speed than sort of advertised.
Woohoo for Radio National - 10:23
I googled the other day and found the Radio National podcast page, they do indeed have a pretty good selection of shows available for download. I rang Crash to ask if he had been doing any of this podcasting radio national thing, he rides to work every day, a rather nice ~ 23 KM commute, listening to an mp3 player or a radio. Crash had indeed been engaging in this podcasting thing, downloading any new casts night at 3am. I asked what application he used to do this, a Gooey application would be kind of silly to use for this so I hoped there was a basic CLI application for the task. Crash was able to point out this rather cool shell script, Bashpodder, to download all new/updated feeds from a list of feed URL's. Mikal, sfr and Rusty will I am sure be glad to see a very useful application, written in shell still rather than some other language, that it works reliably and the newer release even shrank from 76 lines of shell to 44 lines (now including more comments too). I added all the RN feeds I wanted into the file one per line, ran the script and a few minutes later I had 800 MB of cool Radio National content in mp3 format ready for listening anywhere and anywhen. Now if only we could convince the government to fund the ABC and Radio National better so they can keep up the fantastic work well on into the future.

Pubbage and no business talk - 10:23
Anyway, though I live about 50 metres from All Bar Nun I only really go there about once every three months if that, and dont really go to pubs much. Too busy mtb riding or something I guess. I said sure lca crew and other ghosts attendees in Canberra by friday night could rock up to All Bar and sit around chatting about all things unrelated to lca and LA. So now the reason for this whole spiel, the amusing part is, Pia and Jeff decided they had to attend the SLUG meeting and are now not arriving in Canberra until around 11pm.
Ghosts starting to gather - 10:23
Anyway this morning Mark Tearle (LA Treasurer) arrived in Canberra at 6am on the red eye from Perth. AJ (Anthony Towns) will be arriving later today, as will most of the other people attending from outside Canberra (Michael Davies, Anand Kumria, Ryan Verner, Pia Smith, Jeff Waugh, etc, etc). This is going to be a pretty busy weekend.

Watch 29,000 Teddy Bears Go Flying After Hockey Goal (For Charity)
You may not be familiar with the "Teddy Toss," but you will after watching this.
The Calgary Hitmen, of the Western Hockey League, recently hosted its annual "Teddy Toss Night," in which fans throw stuffed animals after the home team scores its first goal of the game.
After Jordy Stallard lit up the red light, the fans did their part, with nearly 29,000 bears raining down on the ice.
It was an incredible scene. And, in the spirit of the season, all of the stuffed animals will go to charity. Amazingly, there was more than one toy per person at the game -- good enough for a historic effort -- according to the team:
You can take a look at the amazing scene from some other angles below:
Meanwhile, the Hershey Bears, of the American Hockey League, also had a successful "Teddy Bear Toss" on Sunday, with fans hurling more than 18,000 stuffed animals:
This is actually a tradition that's been around. New York's Utica College has a history with it. As you can see, the fans really get into it, no matter where the game is:

Who's destroying England?
London attacks and the war against Brexit
NOTE: Watch Paul Watson's shocking video, The Truth about 'Refugees'
by Jon Rappoport
June 4, 2017
"Here's a great idea, boys. Gather around. We're going to build, on top of every national government on the European continent, another government, bigger, more bloated, more corrupt, more powerful. Who'll notice? Who'll care?"
"Terrific. Love it. But ultimately we'll need to destroy all those separate countries and rule the whole continent as one entity. We can do that, yes. We'll open all borders and let in a massive flow of immigrants and erase national identities. Terror attacks will multiply. We'll put a lid on talking about immigrants as the cause of the terror. Call it hate speech. We'll train the population of Europe to accept terrorism as part of the glorious future. It makes no logical sense, but so what? No top-down ideology ever made sense. We'll preach unlimited tolerance and love. We'll be a de facto Church of sorts. We'll hypnotize the whole continent…" (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)
As I was writing this article, multiple terror attacks were launched in London. To say the human destruction "once again raised the question of immigration" would be a vast understatement.
In the run-up to the Brexit vote in 2016, immigration came to the fore as the key issue. But of course, the European Union has a policy of opening borders of all member countries.
The EU wants one continent, no separate countries—and the way to achieve that is by creating a massive flood of migrants. Destroy traditions and cultures that define countries. In the process, accept terrorism as "inevitable." Don't talk or write about the actual effects of immigration. That would be "hate speech." Keep eyes and mouth shut, and march straight ahead into a future of one European continent ruled from above by the EU.
Ever since the UK vote to leave the unelected, terminally corrupt, and rotting edifice known as the European Union, stall tactics and threats have been launched at Brits.
First it was, "It's going to take a long time to untangle the UK from the EU, it's very complicated." Actually, that tactic was predated by Prince Obama traveling to England to warn the population they'd stand at the back of the line in forming separate trade deals with the US, if they left the EU. It's called interfering in the political affairs of another nation. Now it's the EU and Queen Merkel beating the UK to the punch by plotting trade deals with India and China, in order to leave the British out in the cold.
But the basic question is, Is Britain a nation? Does it exist? It's a question citizens are supposed to answer. Not Merkel, Obama, or the EU.
This issue, in case it's unclear, is all about Globalism. According to that totalitarian political philosophy, of which the EU is a standard bearer, there are no nations. There are only mega-corporations and banks.
As the recently departed guru of the Rockefeller Trilateral Commission, Zbigniew Brzezinski, wrote in 1969, "[The] nation state as a fundamental unit of man's organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force. International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation state."
This is not only a political and economic statement, it's a prescriptive piece of psychological advice: Stop thinking of yourself as a citizen of a country; you're a global citizen; you exist and function at the pleasure of a new collaborative international order.
And the new order will triumph. Bow your heads and accept it.
Unless people get up on their hind legs and say no, which is what happened in the 2016 Brexit vote.
Defection. Decentralization. Independence.
Hideous words to the ears of Globalists.
Their basic strategy, since the end of World War 2, has been to spin a highly complex network of political and economic relationships, from one end of the world to the other—a labyrinth—from which escape is seen as virtually impossible.
Trade deals like NAFTA, CAFTA, and GATT are only part of this system. The EU itself keeps churning out thousands of rules, regulations, and laws.
Build the maze; put national governments and populations in the maze.
Then more or less claim the planet would collapse without the maze.
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker just issued a "maze statement" to President Trump after Trump rejected the Globalist Paris Climate (non-) Treaty: "Europe's duty is to say: it's not like that. The Americans can't just leave the climate protection agreement. Mr. Trump believes that [he can] because he doesn't know the details…We tried to explain that to Mr. Trump in Taormina in clear German sentences. It seems that our attempt failed, but the law is the law, and it must be obeyed. Not everything which is law and not everything in international agreements is fake news, and we have to comply with it."
Supremely arrogant, Juncker was winging it and writing his own script, because, in fact, the US didn't sign on to a treaty in Paris. Obama tried to unilaterally bind the US to the climate pact, when a two-third's vote by the US Senate is actually required for such international agreements. And no Senate vote was taken.
But this is the EU's preemptive attitude toward defection, decentralization, and independence.
In the case of Brexit, climate change wasn't the issue. Immigration was. The EU tried its best to chastise England for daring to insist unlimited numbers of migrants might be too many. "You're in the maze, stay in the maze."
And there is another vector of attack being launched at England: reminders the nation is evil for its colonial practices, which can never, ever be erased. But the covert leaders in that propaganda effort, the EU and its Globalist bosses, feel entitled in their own attempt to colonize the whole planet. "Your colonizing was bad, ours is good."
With an annual budget in the vicinity of $100 billion, the EU is intractably corrupt and incompetent. It's estimated that $5 billion a year is stolen from that budget. As for the other $95 billion, what is it for? Nations can govern themselves. The EU could disappear tomorrow and no one would catch a cold. The entire bloated structure, employing between 30 and 50 thousand people (depending on how far the count is extended) is a vast boondoggle.
It's astonishing that anyone in the UK would feel a sense of loyalty to the EU.
There is nothing strange about Brexit at all. It's a natural reaction: One day, a house pet goes outside and wanders off into the woods and never comes back. Who is really surprised?
The "system" called the EU insists that terrorism is somehow a price the British people must pay for entering "a better future for all." Don't ask what that future looks like. Don't think about it. The UK doesn't have the right to set its own immigration policy.
The chaos and destruction that result from open borders are simply an "adjustment period," after which things will settle down. A new and better England and Europe will emerge. Diversity will triumph. How? Don't worry about that, be happy.
You see, diversity is a high-minded principle, and by definition it implies a more humane society. Therefore, there is no counter-evidence. Facts are unimportant.
The latest London attacks are a message to the British people: You may have exited from the EU, but the EU policy on immigration still stands.
No it doesn't. Britain is free to set its own policy.
To do so, politically correct speech will have to be jettisoned. Facts will have to be widely expressed. Lies will have to be widely exposed.
The EU will need to be named as a driving force in immigration, and the results of migration will need to be laid at its door.
The EU sees immigrant terrorism as its ticket to greater control over Europe.
The London attacks are a challenge thrown in Britain's face. Bow down and accept; or rebel.
Leaving the EU means LEAVING the EU.
How many times must British citizens witness these attacks and watch police come in after the fact? How long before leaving means LEAVING?
How long before the British people realize that the flood of migrants is not simply "a refugee crisis" created by the US and its allies, whose imperialist policies of Empire and wars in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, initiate "blowback?"
How long before they see numbers of these "refugees" are just military-age young men who arrive with destruction on their minds?
How long before they see England is riddled with EU agents who are "forwarding a humane immigration policy," come hell or high water?
One continent, under no liberty and no justice, with suffering and slavery for all.
How long before they leave THAT?

The dramatic elegance of the Sempre is accentuated by scalloped detailing on the plunging deep v neckline, designed to elegantly frame the décolletage. The hour glass silhouette is enhanced by butterfly sleeves and a full skirt to below the knee, both complemented by hand stitched scallop detail, to create contrast and volume and accentuate the illusion of a cinched wasp waist. Influence was drawn from our own collection of vintage fit and flare dresses, with the addition of a deeply flattering low back and silk pockets hidden in the folds of the asymmetric full skirt, which incorporates a subtle dip at the back.

Apparently we aren't smart enough to know when it is in the best interests of our family to leave and join another church. No, we need Albert the Pious and the other seminary-trained holy-men-of-God to tell us when we can leave, and when we can't leave. After all, as Albert said last year, pastors are "God-appointed agents to save God's people from ignorance."
Says Albert:
This is not only unbiblical, it is just plain stupid and illogical. Let me give just a few reasons why Mohler is out in left field on this issue:
1. "The Church" is NOT the same as "501(c)3 religious organization": Mohler wrongly equates local 501(c)3 religious organizations with the "church" in scripture. We've beat this dead horse before, but if I leave ABC Baptist Church, I'm not "leaving the church" - I'm changing 501(c)3 religious organizations. Christians absolutely are free in Christ and free as Americans to change churches as often as they wish, for whatever reason they deem fit, as led by their conscience and faith. And they're even free, and have a Christian right to not be a member of ANY 501(c)3 religious organization.
2. If Al is right, why do pastors change churches so often?: Al conveniently forgot that the average baptist senior pastor stays at their church for 6-7 years before moving on to another church. And when a SBC pastor leaves his church for greener pastures, it rarely has anything to do with major theological differences - instead we are told that "God called" the pastor to his new church. In fact, the mega church rock stars go to great lengths to tell us how God told them to change churches - like while riding a donkey in the Holy Land and other such tales. Apparently God is capable only of calling pastors to change churches - but dang it the plebe have to stay at a church until the church denies the Trinity - or worse, they hire a woman pastor. Al, if you really believe what you're saying, please tell pastors that once they become pastor of a church, they should stay there for their entire career.
3. Why then, do mega churches spend so much on church marketing? Al says people who change churches without a deep theological rift have a "consumerism" mindset. If we are not "consumers" and should not select a church based on preferences like worship style or programs offered by the church, then why on earth do mega churches treat us like consumers and spend so much money on church marketing, trying to steal sheep, and hiring guys like Maurilio Amorim? Al, if you really believe what you're saying, train your pastors to stop spending "God's money" on so much church marketing! And for goodness sake, please mega church pastors, inquire as to the reason why someone is joining your church and turn away those members who left their prior church for personal preferences!
4. What About Abusive Churches and Pastors? Using Albert's standard, even if we find that our pastor covered-up for a pedophile, we don't have a right to leave the church. Sorry, Al, but most clear-thinking Christians know when it is in our best interests and the interests of our families to flee an abusive church and/or pastor. For example, I don't need a theological reason to leave a church pastored by this creep showing kids at a youth service how to "polish a shaft".
We could go on, but you get the point. Christian, you and your family have the right - even the Christian responsibility - to change churches and take your money with you for any reason you deem fit. It could be because the newly appointed pastor is more of a traveling evangelist who loves to go on cruises with the rich folk. Or maybe the pastor is an angry, pompous ass in the pulpit and you just can't stomach his rants each week. It could be because your kids don't fit into the youth group, or the youth group is dysfunctional. It could be even something as simple as worship style preferences.
Friends, Albert Mohler is regarded by many to be one of the greatest minds in modern day evangelicalism. Albert telling church members they are morally bound to stay attached to their 501(c)3 religious organization else they are harming the cause of Christ, tells me that we not only can't trust men like Mohler and those he trains to teach the bible rightly, we can't trust them to make arguments that are logical, or even congruent with their other core beliefs.
"Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the church house
at the place I was before
'relax,' said Albert Mohler,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

Here are my recommendations for hookup sites that will actually get you laid. All the sites below have a huge amount of members, allow nudity, and offer exciting features that make it fun and easy to connect with local hookups. Ready to play?
1. AdultFriendFinder.com
Adult Friend Finder is the grand-daddy of hookup sites and my favorite for finding local hookups. Be warned that there is full nudity inside and the women here are total exhibitionists! AFF has more members than the rest and they are strict about fake profiles so what you'll find inside is the real deal.
AdultFriendFinder.com is wildly popular with over 100 million members worldwide, making it easy to find local partners that match your desires. In addition to being the largest hookup site they are also the most feature-rich. Inside you'll find video introductions, live video chat, member-created groups, and blogs.
Create your profile and enjoy all the bells and whistles at this very naughty hookup site.
2. Fling.com
Fling has also been around a long time and has amassed a large following of horny hookup enthusiasts over the years. This anything-goes community is great for both singles and couples, and has a lot of fun features to keep you busy between dates. Nudity abounds at Fling, (like at all the sites on my list), and members seem to really enjoy showing off.
Fling.com isn't quite as feature rich and popular as Adult Friend Finder, but it's a good second choice, or even a second platform for those of us who like to keep our options wide open with multiple hookup sites. I've been a member here for as long as I can remember, and still meet new people on the regular.
3. FetishHookups.com
I thought I'd add an option here for the kinky set. FetishHookups.com is a great choice for people looking for kinky hookups who enjoy BDSM, fetish play, domination and submission, or simply sex that's a little less vanilla. Like the above hookup sites, Fetish Hookups accepts all genders and orientations, and is as naughty as they come.
Search by kink, meet others who share your fetish, and enjoy the wild side of hookup dating with kinky women and men near you.
4. FindaThreesome.com
Threesome hunters need look no further. FindaThreesome.com is the biggest and best threesome hookup site for finding local couples and sexy singles who enjoy group fun and threesomes. Full featured, this site includes lots of premium extras like steamy member videos and topical chat rooms.
Join as a couple seeking a third, or as a single looking for couples. This is the place to make your threesome fantasy come true.
I hope you find the arrangement, relationship, or night of passion you seek. I've been testing and writing about dating sites for many years and and am always happy when I can help people find the community that matches their desires. I know there are a lot of options out there, so hopefully I've saved you some time and you're on your way to your next happy hookup. Best of luck!

Maintaining the ventilation through the attic is imperative to prevent moisture buildup. Moisture leads to mold, and daily mold inhalation may negatively affect your family's health. In most homes, you can access the attic by either an attic access ladder or steps installed in a garage or larger closet.
Attic Ventilation
The sources of attic ventilation – louvers and vents – help prevent moisture buildup, reduce energy usage, and increase the life span of the roofing material. Louvers and vents keep out snow and wind-driven rain in normal conditions. Sometimes, rain and snow can enter through these openings when certain negative pressures exist.
Attic Storage
In some homes, the attic is available as storage. If your attic has a plywood platform, then you may use this area as such. Otherwise, your attic shouldn't be used for storage or any other purpose.
Any damage resulting from the improper use of the attic space is the responsibility of the homeowner.
Care and Maintenance
Follow these care and maintenance suggestions for your home's attic.
To Maintain Sufficient Ventilation Through the Attic
Keep the louvered openings unobstructed year-round. Louvers obstructed by debris or ice accumulation frequently lead to leaks.
Make sure your home's vents are clear of debris.
Check vents periodically to make sure they're secure and haven't come loose in high winds.
Inspect the attic once a year for water stains on the underside of the roof sheathing.
To Prevent Long-Term Damage to the Attic
Check the attic insulation for moisture. If you find moisture, call for service immediately.
If you have loose-fill insulation, check to see if it has shifted due to major weather events. Use a plastic rake to move insulation from high spots to bald spots.
Have a qualified person inspect the attic for mildew, rot, and fungus. These problems indicate a high humidity level in the attic. Also, inspect for evidence of pests.

Caroline Convertible Tote (Vegan)
The Caroline bag is the ultimate versatile work, travel tote, and laptop bag. Wear it as a backpack or crossbody, or use the top handles for grab-and-go carry. Caroline's ergonomic, permanently anchored, padded vegan leather backpack straps zip up entirely in the back and tuck in at the bottom next to the luggage trolley sleeve. She's yours to carry from the commuter train to the boardroom. With its wipeable interior, insulated snack/water bottle pocket, and ten spacious pockets, this work tote allows every item, large and small, to remain organized. Lastly, this style comes with a full one-year structural warranty included.
Common Uses: Work bag, travel bag, backpack, diaper bag, leather diaper bag backpack, vegan leather backpack
- 1 Large exterior slip pocket
- 2 Side bottle pockets
- 2 Exterior zippered pockets
- 1 Large interior zipper pocket
- 2 Interior side elastic pockets
- 2 Interior pockets
- Dimensions: 15"(H) x 12"(W) x 6.25"(D)

Are the top handles padded?
The top middle grip portion of the handles are padded.
Can the top handles fit over your shoulder?
No they are grab handles and can slip up to your elbow
How usable are the side pockets?
Like the Anna, the exterior side pockets can hold a large water bottle
Are your leather bags going anywhere?
No way, leather is still a high priority and stapel for our brand.
Why vegan (faux) leather?
This has been our most requested material for several years. It offers a beautiful finish at a lower cost to our very patient customers.
What are your vegan materials made of?
The outside of the bag is a custom developed faux leather for Lily Jade durable synthetic coating bonded to a fabric backing. The liner is a plush stain and water resistant nylon. Our faux leather is free of Lead, Phthalates and BPAs. All components are compliant with California Proposition 65.
Does the organizer fit in the Caroline?
No, the organizer does not fit in the Caroline. The insert is limited to the majority of our leather diaper bags and totes. However, our packing cases fit perfectly in the Caroline! It's a beautiful pairing.
Can you describe how the Caroline feels compared to the leather bags?
Great question. They both have a natural finished look and feel. The vegan leather has a silky smooth touch and the leather has a "thicker" buttery smooth feel to the touch. They are similar to touch. It's a formulation we have worked hard to perfect.
Will my vegan leather last as long as leather and will it peel like other vegan leather bags?
We expect that this vegan leather will last longer than other popular brands. We've performed extensive abrasion and wear testing and worked with the supplier to enhance the bond strength and durability of the material. The luxurious hand feel is very different than what you'll find on Amazon or from other mainstream diaper bag brands. We feel extremely confident that this will be the best vegan leather available and we are providing a 6 month warranty against peeling (does not include natural wear or scuffs) and a full year for structural coverage. While natural leather does have a longer life cycle than vegan leather, we believe you'll be very happy with the performance over time of this premium material engineered to Lily Jade's standards.
Accessories included:
- Adjustable, detachable extra long strap for messenger carry
- Gorgeous tassel with Jade color beads and LJ circle logo
- NOT INCLUDED: Insert & Changing Pad
Fits More, Organized Better
Fit everything you need, all in one bag! Our bigger bags have larger-capacity pockets than other bags out there, and YES, the side pockets WILL fit that favorite large insulated cup! Plus, our packing case system means all the little things don't get lost in a bottomless pit.
Chic & Stylish
Every mom should have a diaper bag they LOVE, are proud to wear, and makes them feel confident, chic, and stylish. We've got a wide range of bag styles and materials to fit your personal taste, mom needs, and budget. From tassels, sturdy zippers, feet on the bottom, extra pockets in all the places, couture clasps, and designer accessories like our fun interchangeable woven straps - these bags are as beautiful as the moms who carry them.
Comfort & Versatility
Hello hands-free! From back pack, to crossbody, to purse - wear the Caroline 3 ways! The vertical shape and wide exterior side pockets make for the chicest designed and most user-friendly vegan bag available. Plus, our most popular vegan bag has THE most comfortable padded straps! No more bag straps cutting into your shoulders! PS - Did we mention the backpack straps disappear completely, zipped up in the back and tucked in at the bottom, so you can transition to any carry-style you need in the moment!
Quality That Lasts Well Beyond the Baby Years
We know a diaper bag is an investment, so it should be worth the price tag AND last longer than a year. Our faux leather has been tested to withstand tough wear and tear, and we pride ourselves on giving you THE BEST diaper bags out there - even surpassing the quality of some of the most expensive luxury brand names. You get the best without paying thousands.
As a mom of 4 I have used my fair share of diaper bags including FP and Fawn and this is the best quality and craftsmanship of any I have owned to date. The insulated bottle pocket on the inside is genius as well.
My unicorn bag! I carry it everyday and it still looks brand new! The old english leather is buttery soft, yet so durable. I use this as my day to day bag and it fits everything we need easily! The bottle pockets are my favorite - they are so generous they can even tote my 26 oz yeti. Love this backpack! Paired my diamond khaki crossbody strap for easy shoulder carry and it's super comfortable!
The perfect carry all! This bag is a total workhorse! It can carry anything. It's large but light weight. My favorite feature is the padded backpack straps. No matter how much I put in her the weight is manageable on my back. I have searched for years to find a tote that didn't get unbearably heavy.
The absolute perfect bag! The bag is so well made, perfect as an every bag or diaper bag! It fits so much stuff I can pack for 2 kids in it!
Literally obsessed! I'm a mom of 3. Oldest is 9, middle is 6, and youngest is 2 and still in diapers. The Brittany is such a great bag for me. I like to carry just what I need and nothing too extra. Once my youngest is out of diapers, I know this will make a wonderful purse. I love that it's so easily transitional. I love Lily Jade because their products are the best of the best and 100% worth the price. You will not be disappointed!
Perfect! I'm an ICU RN and when the pandemic started I opted for washable bags. I wanted a few nicer options for outings and events. This was my first LJ purchase. I love it. The leather is so soft and buttery. I'm an OVER-PACKER and I find style fits more than enough of what I need. I love that there are so many ways to carry the bag! The black with the gold hardware is beautiful!

Description of Kebbi State
Located in northwest Nigeria, Kebbi State shares its eastern and northern borders with Sokoto and Zamfara, its southern border with Niger State, and its western border with the Benin Republic and Niger. On August 27, 1991, a portion of Sokoto State was split off to form Kebbi State, which was later named after Birnin Kebbi, the state capital and largest city. Kebbi is the tenth largest in area and the 22nd most populous of Nigeria's 36 states, with an estimated population of around 4.4 million as of 2016. The state has earned the moniker "land of equity."
The state of Kebbi is characterized by short-grass savanna and is drained to the southwest by the Niger and its tributary, the Sokoto (Kebbi) River. South of the state is where you'll find the majority of the Kainji Reservoir, created by the Kainji Dam on the Niger River.
Because of its location, the state is classified as belonging to the tropical West Sudanese savanna biome. Kebbi is located on the southern end of the Niger River, which flows through the city of Sokoto and on to the larger Kainji Lake (half of which is located in Kebbi). Numerous fish species are showcased at the massive Argungu Fishing Festival, and the state is also home to hippopotamuses, West African manatees, and migrating African bush elephants.
There are many different ethnic groups living in Kebbi. The Fulani, Hausa, and Zarma peoples are found all over the state, while the Achipa (Achipawa), Boko-Bala, Dendi, Dukawa, Kambari, Kamuku, Lela, Puku, and Shanga peoples are concentrated along the state's varied western and southern borders. Nearly eighty percent of the state's residents identify as Muslims, with smaller Christian and traditionalist minorities of around ten percent each.
The Kebbi Kingdom, a Hausa Banza bakwai state, dominated the region that is now Kebbi State before colonial rule. In the early 1800s, the Fulani jihad conquered a portion of the region and attempted to incorporate it into the Gwandu Emirate, which was part of the Sokoto Caliphate. For the next century, Kebbi rulers engaged in intermittent conflict with Sokoto until the early 1900s and 1910s, when the British seized control of the area as part of the Northern Nigeria Protectorate, which eventually merged into British Nigeria and eventually became independent as Nigeria in 1960. [8] After Nigeria's independence, the Northern Region, of which modern-day Kebbi State is a part, was split in 1967, and the area became part of the North-Western State. In 1976, Sokoto State was one of eleven new states created after the North-Eastern State was divided. Twenty years later, the western and southern LGAs of Sokoto State were separated to form the new state of Kebbi.
Kebbi State relies heavily on its fishing and agricultural industries, particularly the production of sorghum, groundnuts, millet, onion, and rice.
Besides camel, cattle, goat, and sheep herding, trading is another important industry, especially in the city of Birnin Kebbi. Both the Human Development Index and the Gross Domestic Product in Kebbi are the lowest in the country.
Kebbi state was created out of the old Sokoto State on 17th August 1991. Kebbi State has approximately 3,137,989 number of persons as projected from the 1991 census, within 21 Local Government areas. Kebbi state has Sudan and Sahel-savannah. Agriculture is the main business of the people especially in rural areas, Crops produced are mostly grains; animal rearing and fishing are also common in Kebbi state. Christianity and Islam are the presiding religions of the people. There are 225 political wards, 3000 settlements and 1036 hard to reach settlements in the 21 Local Government Areas in Kebbi State.
One of Nigeria's most important rice-growing regions is Kebbi State. There are currently over 70,000 farmers involved in the Anchor Borrowers Program. Kebbi is poised to become a major distribution center for agricultural products across the country thanks to its thriving rice and wheat industries.
Riverine floodplains produce cash crops like peanuts (groundnuts), cotton, and rice, making agriculture the most important industry. Agriculture for survival typically consists of sorghum, millet, cowpeas, and onions. Animals such as cattle, goats, and sheep are grazed on much of the state's land. The Fulani, Hausa, Dakarki (Dakarawa), and Kamberi are the state's four largest ethnic groups. Muslim religion is practiced by the vast majority of the populace.
During his visit to Benin Republic last year, active Governor Atiku Bagudu signed a number of bilateral trade protocols with the Government and Business Community of Benin Republic with the goal of fostering trade, industrial, and tourism relationships with Kebbi state so that it is not solely dependent on Federal allocation.
Kebbi state has an agriculturally feasible environment since it is equipped with high soil fertility, vast farm lands and economically viable rivers sheltered by fine tropical climate. In Kebbi state, agriculture has remained the major source of income and indeed the foundation of the economy of the state.Major food crops in Kebbi state are millet, guinea - corn, maize, cassava, potatoes, rice, beans, onions and vegetables, while cash crops in Kabbi state includes wheat, soya beans, ginger, sugarcane, groundnuts and tobacco are also produced . Likewise, fruits such as mango, cashew, guava and pawpaw are produced in Kebbi state.
Kebbi state has agricultural development authority which is in charge of the implementation of its agricultural strategies. Kebbi state is endowed with lucrative viable rivers such as the Niger and the Rima for the development of fisheries activities. Fishing has always been one of the key business of the inhabitants of kebbi state.

In this course we introduce an abstract concept of measure and integration on a so-called measurable space. For functions of a real variable, this leads to the Lebesgue integral which gives a broader class of integrable functions (than the classical Riemann integral). Measure theory is of crucial importance in probability theory, stochastic processes, ergodic theory,
and analysis.
Main subjects of this course are: premeasure, extension theorem of Caratheodory, measurable functions, integration of measurable functions, convergence theorems (Fatou, Lebesgue dominated convergence), L^p spaces, Holder and Minkowsky's inequality, absolute continuity, Radon Nikodym theorem.
Students with interest in stochastics and/or analysis are also encouraged
to follow the Linear Analysis course.

Yippy skip! My latest MEMORY WORKS order arrived last weekend. They always send things in these 13×13 boxes with lots of padding so nothing gets crushed or bent. That's one thing I really like. This is a mix of items for myself, and things I'm going to sell.
Here's a bunch of Cosmo Cricket cardstock stickers, rub-ons, and the free Cosmo Cricket tie I got from Memory Works as a promotional item.
Finally! I got some BO BUNNY "ABBY ROAD." Ever since I saw THIS layout by Chrispea, I've been wanting some. I'm totally going to scraplift that.
And then there's BO BUNNY "CALYPSO" for all those fun summer layouts. We have a pool, we go to the lake and the ocean all summer, and we barbeque a lot. This looks like the perfect line for me, don't you think?
This is the back side and closer look at two of the papers. These especially rock, in my opinion.
This is the cover sheet thingee from the CRATE PAPER "BLUE HILL" theme set {oops, no linkee, it's already sold out! you gotta' move quick around here, LOL}. I just luuuurve this color combination. Have you ever seen Crate Paper in person? It is THE best quality patterned paper. It's cardstock thick and has a slight texture to it. It feels so luxurious…ROWR…
You get two of each paper and I alternated both sides so you can see them both. For instance, from the left, there are two sheets of that paper with the teal/peach pattern on one side and the solid teal on the other.
Here is the rest of the stuff I got in this special "retreat" pack, i.e. leftover class kits or things sold at the Memory Works retreat in June 2009. This was a great deal…all this Crate Paper stuff in one pack for $17.50.
This was also a special from the MW retreat…a birthday card set from the BASIC GREY "CUPCAKE" line. I'm going to offer them as make-n-takes at my crop. {No linkee here either, already sold out. Sheesh, glad I ordered when I did!}
And now my whining about not having any COSMO CRICKET "EARLY BIRD" will cease because it now holds it's rightful place in my stash. Sweeeeeet!
This the front side of the papers in the theme set….
…and this is the back side of those same papers.
This is the Early Bird ELEMENTS and STICKERS. I got 2 of everything ~ 1 for me, 1 to sell. Again, loving the color combo, and those cherries are so stinkin' cute. I've seen lotsa inspiration on various blogs for how to use this line and I can't wait to get started.
It's like Christmas in July, I tell ya'. What's funny is I get the same amount of joy from receiving the items I'm going to keep and those I'm going to sell to customers. I don't mind selling products that I have in stock and may really love … but I get to touch them first ;-)
