How to know victim's OS using Nmap
Nmap ("Network Mapper") is a free and open source (license) utility for network exploration or security auditing. Many systems and network administrators also find it useful for tasks such as network inventory, managing service upgrade schedules, and monitoring host or service uptime. Nmap uses raw IP packets in novel ways to determine what hosts are available on the network, what services (application name and version) those hosts are offering, what operating systems (and OS versions) they are running, what type of packet filters/firewalls are in use, and dozens of other characteristics. It was designed to rapidly scan large networks, but works fine against single hosts.

Have you ever noticed that, with roadway anger, it's always the other guy's fault? And, it very well could be. The thing is, you can't control how other people drive. But, you can control how you respond to situations on the road that come across as inconsiderate or even hostile – yes, even when someone cuts you off.
With school getting back in session, the roads are especially crowded this time of year, and that can easily lead to a short fuse, a close call with an aggressive driver or worse. To help you avoid the frustration and danger of road rage – your own or others' – follow these five dos and don'ts:
While changing the way you think and react behind the wheel isn't going to make the roads instantly friendlier – those inconsiderate drivers will still be out there – it can help you enjoy a calmer and safer driving experience. And, if you find you just can't let go of your roadway anger, talk about it in a constructive manner with your spouse, a friend or even in anger management therapy. You might just be surprised by what you find out about yourself – and by how much better you feel, whether you're behind the wheel or not.

"I attended a show in LA and it was HILARIOUS. I wanted to host after seeing how much fun it was. I talked to Kyle and set it up. The crew came over, set everything up themselves, I didn't have to lift a finger! When the show was over, they tore everything down quickly, put my house back exactly how they found it, and it looked like nobody had even been here! The crowd is extremely respectful of the house (and in general). I'd host every single time if they'd let me!"

All-American Council is name of the periodic general councils of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA). This title began with the granting, in 1970, of autocephaly to the former Russian Mission, which was commonly referred to as the Metropolia. The councils prior to autocephaly were called All-American Sobors.
The first All-American Council, held on October 20-22, 1970 was also the last All-American Sobor, the fourteenth, after the diocese received the Tomos of autocephaly from the Moscow Patriarchate. The following is a list All-American councils since the first with notes of the principal activities during each:

First All-American Council
The first council was held at St. Tikhon's Monastery in South Canaan, Pennsylvania. The council accepted the autocephaly Tomos and approved the new name of Orthodox Church in America. After approving a new short constitution, the council decided to convene a special session of the council the following year to revise the Church Statutes to reflect the new status as an autocephalous church.
Second All-American Council
The second council was also held at St. Tikhon's Monastery in South Canaan from October 19-21, 1971. The council adopted the revised Statutes for the Orthodox Church in America (OCA) which was based upon the short constitution adopted at the council in 1970. The Statutes specified convening an All-American Council every two years. The council also welcomed into the OCA the Albanian Orthodox Archdiocese led by Bp. Stephen (Lasko).
Third All-American Council
The third council was held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on November 13-15, 1973 and for the first time used hotel convention facilities for the sessions. This council was the first council to meet in a number of sessions and workshops instead of convening only in plenary sessions. The council approved the expansion of the central chancery, permit women to be delegates at diocesan meetings, and increased the assessments for funding the central administration (chancery). The Council welcomed the Exarchate of Mexico led by Bp. Jose (Cortes y Olmos) into the OCA.
Fourth All-American Council
The fourth council was again held in a hotel convention facility in Cleveland, Ohio, in November 10-13, 1975. A theme on Missions was adopted for this council, and the business of the Council centered on issues of the day.
Fifth All-American Council
The fifth council was held in the Canadian Archdiocese, in the city of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, on October 25-28, 1977. This council was the first held outside the United States. The first order of business for this Council was the election of a metropolitan, as Metr. Ireney had announced his retirement six months earlier due to failing health. After failing to gain a two thirds majority on the first vote, a runoff second vote was held to choose two candidates for selection by the Synod of Bishops. While gaining only 179 votes to 348, Bp. Theodosius (Lazor) of Pittsburgh was selected by the Synod over Bp. Dmitri (Royster) of New England.
In the first ballot there were 278 votes for Bishop Dmitri (Royster) of Hartfort, 57 for Archbishop Kiprian (Borisevich) of Philadelphia, 33 for Bishop Theodosius (Lazor) of Pittsburgh, 25 for Archbishop Sylvester (Haruns) of Montreal, 21 for Bishop Herman (Swaiko) of Wilkes-Barre, 19 for Bishop Gregory (Afonsky) of Sitka, 9 for Bishop Kyrill (Yonchev) of Toledo and the Bulgarian Diocese, 8 for Archpriest Boris Geeza, 5 for Archbishop John (Garklavs) of Chicago, 5 for Archbishop John (Shahovskoy) of San Francisco, 1 for Archbishop Valerian (Trifa) of Detroit and the Romanian Episcopate, and two invalid ballots.
In the second ballot where every delegate has two votes, there were 348 votes for Bishop Dmitri, 179 for Bishop Theodosius, 99 for Archbishop Kiprian, 73 for Bishop Herman, 48 for Bishop Gregory, 43 for Archbishop Sylvester, 36 for Fr. Boris Geeza, 21 for Bishop Kyrill, 18 for Archbishop John (Garklavs), 18 for Archbishop John (Shahovskoy), 14 for Archbishop Valerian, 3 for Bishop Joasaph (Antoniuk) of Edmonton, 3 for Bishop Jose (Cortes y Olmos) of Mexico City, 3 for Fr. Mark Forsberg, 1 for Fr. Damian Hart, 1 for Fr. Gabriel Barrow, 1 for Fr. Thomas Green, 1 for Dimitri Mityanin, and 18 invalid votes on 9 ballots.
Discussion and deliberations at the council after the election of the new first hierarch were held under the theme of Stewardship. Attending the Council for the first time was the Bulgarian diocese led by Bp. Kyrill (Yonchev) which had been received into the OCA in 1976. This council introduced the attendance of observers, including women, to council sessions. The council moved the date for the sixth Council to 1980, from the normally scheduled 1979, to coincide with the tenth anniversary of autocephaly.
Sixth All-American Council
The sixth council was held in Detroit, Michigan, on November 9-14, 1980. Discussions and deliberations for this Council were held under the theme of Orthodoxy, America, and The Future. The council amended the Statutes to admit women as delegates at All-American Councils. The council also revised the Statutes to schedule convocation of the All-American Councils every three year instead of every two years. The council also expressed support for Abp Valerian (Trifa), bishop of the Romanian Diocese of the OCA, who was defending himself against accusations of being a Nazi war-criminal. At the council the Synod of Bishops announced the formation in 1981 of the Diocese of Washington (DC) as the see for the Primate of the OCA. The council was also advised of the established in 1978 by the Synod of Bishops of the Diocese of the South.
Seventh All-American Council
The seventh council was the first scheduled in the summer and was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on August 22-26, 1983. The discussions and deliberations of this council were held under the theme of Church Growth. This council was the last one attended by Fr. Alexander Schmemann, who was very ill and died after the council adjourned on December 13, 1983.
Eighth All-American Council
The eighth council was held in Washington, D.C. on August 17-22, 1986. The discussions and deliberations at this council were held under the theme of Evangelization. Among the issues debated, but not resolved, was that of admitting deacons to the councils as clergy delegates.
Ninth All-American Council
The ninth council was held in Saint Louis, Missouri on August 20-25, 1989. The discussions and deliberations of the council were under the theme of The Orthodox Church in America: Reflecting on the Past, Planning for the Future. The ninth council reflected a change in the format for sessions by reverting back to plenary sessions only. The council noted the retirement of Fr. Daniel Hubiak who had been the Chancellor of the OCA since he succeeded Fr. Joseph J. Pishtey after he died on November 2, 1972. The council also noted that the newly appointed chancellor was Fr. Robert Kondratick.
Tenth All-American Council
The tenth council was held in Miami, Florida in July 26-31, 1992. The discussions and deliberations were held under the theme of Discerning God's Will: Our Spiritual Life and Ministry. Most of the deliberations were based upon subjects submitted by parishes during pre-council preparations. The council mourned the death of Fr. John Meyendorff just a few days before the council convened.
Eleventh All-American Council
The eleventh council was held in Chicago, Illinois on July 16-21, 1995. The theme of the council was Gathered in Community. The deliberations were again held in plenary sessions that were organized to reflect the changes in the departmental structures of the central administration.
Twelfth All-American Council
The twelfth council was convened in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on July 25-30, 1999, one year late due to "logistical circumstances." The theme of the council sessions was: On Behalf of All and For All. Among the decisions made were amendments to the Statutes and resolution of an issue on "A Fair Share System of Support." Noted were presentations by Bishop Kallistos (Ware) and Dr. Jaroslav Pelikan.
Thirteenth All-American Council
The thirteenth council was held in Orlando, Florida on July 21-26, 2002. The theme for the council was: The Parish Community: Our Life in Christ. The principal business of the council was the election of a new Metropolitan to succeed Metr. Theodosius (Lazor), who had voluntarily retired because of reportedly poor health. While Bp. Seraphim of Ottawa and Canada received the greatest number of votes on the first ballot, the election proceeded to a second vote by the Synod of Bishops since the majority of two thirds for election was not met. The Synod of Bishops selected Abp. Herman (Swaiko) of Philadelphia as the new Metropolitan.
In the first ballot there were 267 votes for Bishop Seraphim, 141 for Archbishop Herman, 52 for Bishop Job (Osacky) of Chicago, 47 for Archbishop Nathaniel (Popp) of Detroit, 47 for Bishop Nikolai (Soraich) of Sitka, 45 for Archbishop Dmitri (Royster) of Dallas, 12 for Bishop Basil (Essey), 2 for Archbishop Kyrill (Yonchev) of Pittsburgh, 3 for Bishop Tikhon (Fitzgerald) of San Francisco, 1 for Bishop Nikon, 3 for Fr.

Basil Summer, 1 for Bishop Nicholas, 1 for Fr. Christopher Calin, 1 Hierodeacon Yakov, 1 for Fr. James Paffhausen, 1 for Dr. Albert Rossi, and 1 for Fr. Ireney Rochon.
Fourteenth All-American Council
The fourteenth council was held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on July 17-22, 2005. The theme of the council was: Our Church and Our Future. The operations and budget of the central administration was reviewed with reports by the treasurer on issues of debt reduction and repayment of borrowed funds. The council received the decision of the Synod of Bishops, made prior to the council, re-uniting the Dioceses of Washington and of New York and New Jersey to form the Diocese of Washington and New York headed by Metr. Herman, following the retirement of Abp. Peter of New York and New Jersey.
Fifteenth All-American Council
The 15th All-American Council, took place at the Hilton Hotel, in Pittsburgh, PA, November 10-13, 2008. The theme for the council was: "Members of One Another". In preparation, the Preconciliar Commission held regional "Town Hall meetings" throughout the summer with members of the Synod of Bishops meeting with church members.
The Council trailed a financial scandal that had been slowly emerging since 1993 that resulted in the early retirement of the Metr. Herman (Swaiko) in September. The chief tasks of the council were to pick a new primate for the OCA and to restore confidence in the financial accountability of the church.
After receiving pluralities in the nominating ballots (though not a two-thirds majority), auxiliary Bishop Jonah (Paffhausen) of Fort Worth was elected by the Synod of Bishops. Present at the Wednesday morning session, were 645 voting delegates, including 310 clergy and 325 lay delegates, and 10 Hierarchs, making 432 votes needed for a first round, two thirds, majority.
On the first ballot, the two leading candidates were Bp. Jonah, with 233 votes, and Abp. Job of Chicago, with 212 votes. Also receiving first ballot votes were, Bishop Benjamin with 75 votes, Archbishop Seraphim 33, Bishop Tikhon 27, Archpriest Michael Dahulich 16, Archbishop Dmitri 10, Archbishop Nathaniel 9, Bishop Basil (Essey) 6, Bishop Nikon 5, Archpriest Alexander Golitzin 5, Archbishop Lazar (Puhalo) 002, Bishop Hilarion (of Vienna) 2, Archimandrite Meletios (Webber) 2, Archpriest Basil Summer 1, Archimandrite Zacharias (of St. John's Monastery, England) 1, Archpriest Dennis Bradley 1, Archpriest Callinic Berger 1, and Archimandrite Zacchaeus (Wood) with 1 vote. (Three votes were not cast.)
On the second ballot, Bp. Jonah received 473 votes and Abp. Job 364. Their names were given to the other bishops for selection. Also receiving second ballot votes were, Bishop Benjamin with 140 votes, Bishop Tikhon 75, Archbishop Seraphim 42, Archbishop Dmitri 35, Archpriest Michael Dahulich 31, Bishop Basil (Essey) 22, Bishop Nikon 19, Archimandrite Meletios (Webber) 16, Archbishop Nathaniel 9, Archpriest Alexander Golitzin 6, Archpriest Basil Summer 6, Fr. Oleg Kirilov 4, Bishop Irineu 3, Bishop Alejo 3, Archbishop Lazar (Puhalo) 3, Monk Stavros (Leves) 2, Archpriest David Mahaffey 2, Igumen Basil Carpenter 2, Archimandrite Zacharias of St. John's Monastery, England 2, Archpriest Dennis Bradley 2, Archbishop Nikiphoros 1, Bishop Mark of Toledo 1, and Fr. Juvenaly of St. Tikhon's 1 vote. (Two votes were not cast and 4 votes were invalid.)
On the previous night, the Synod of Bishops took questions about the financial scandal. The newly consecrated Bishop Jonah gave answers that drew attention for their forthright admission of wrongdoing at church headquarters and explained of how bishops are supposed to lead.
Among the reports and talks during the council were Abp. Nathaniel's update on the Romanian Orthodox Episcopate in America, Special Investigating Committee reports and recommendations.
Much of the Council's activity could be observed online through a page on the OCA website, and via podcasts from Ancient Faith Radio.

Confidentiality is a major concern in virtually every business. Quite often business owners become a little nervous when it comes time to sell their business; after all, business owners usually want to keep the fact that they are selling confidential. Yet, at the same time, business owners want to receive top-dollar for their businesses and sell that business as quickly as possible. In order to sell a business quickly and receive top-dollar, it is usually necessary to present the business to a range of prospects. The simple fact is that you can't sell a business without letting prospective buyers know that it is for sale.
All of this adds up to one simple conclusion: you will need a confidentiality agreement when selling a business. Let's look at a few of the key points your confidentiality agreement should cover.
- Type of Negotiations
First, your confidentiality agreement should cover whether or not the negotiations are open or secret and exactly what kind of information can be disclosed.
2. Duration of Agreement
Your confidentiality agreement must specify exactly how long the agreement will be in effect. In most circumstances, it is prudent for the seller to seek a permanently binding confidentiality agreement.
3. Special Considerations
There are other considerations as well, for example, does your business hold any patents? A buyer could learn about your inventions during a buying process so you'll want to make sure that your confidentiality agreement protects your patent and copyright interests as well.
4. State Laws
Additionally, your confidentiality agreement must factor in different state laws if the other party is based in a state different than your own.
5. Recourse in the Case of Breach
Finally, your confidentiality agreement should outline what recourse you will have if the agreement is breached. Having a confidentiality agreement does not offer magical protection against a violation. However, a confidentiality agreement does ensure that prospective buyers understand the seriousness of the situation and that there are indeed severe consequences if the agreement is not followed.
It is important for all parties involved to realize that a confidentiality agreement is a legally binding agreement that is enforceable in a court a law. Thanks to a confidentiality agreement, a seller can share confidential information with a prospective buyer or business broker so that a business can be properly evaluated.
With so much on the line, it is vital that you have your confidentiality agreement drawn up by a legal professional. A good confidentiality agreement is an investment in your business. It is possible for a business owner to sell his or her business and do so with some degree of confidence that information shared with prospective buyers will not be disclosed.

Tolkien family files suit for 'morally questionable' marketing of 'Rings'
| Wellington, New Zealand
The heirs of late author J.R.R. Tolkien are suing the producers of "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" movie trilogies over alleged exploitative merchandizing.
The lawsuit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, comes a week before the premiere of the "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" in Wellington. The first film in the trilogy hits theaters worldwide next month.
The estate of Tolkien is upset at what it calls "morally questionable" digital marketing including a Lord of the Rings online slot machine, according to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by The Hollywood Reporter. The Tolkien estate is seeking $80 million from Warner Bros., its New Line subsidiary and rights holder Saul Zaentz Co.

Warner Bros. declined to comment on the claims.
Tolkien's family contends a merchandizing agreement extends only to tangible products such as figurines and clothing and not to electronic rights.
"Not only does the production of gambling games patently exceed the scope of defendants' rights, but this infringing conduct has outraged Tolkien's devoted fan base, causing irreparable harm to Tolkien's legacy and reputation and the valuable goodwill generated by his works," the family claims in the lawsuit.
The family says lengthy discussions with the producers over the disagreement proved fruitless and that it fears the scope of online merchandizing will only increase with the release of the 'Hobbit' movies.
Tolkien's heirs settled a lawsuit over the "Lord of the Rings" movies for an undisclosed amount in 2009, allowing production to proceed on "The Hobbit."
That lawsuit against New Line Cinema claimed Tolkien's trust received only an upfront payment of $62,500 for the three movies before production began but was due 7.5 percent of the gross receipts. The "Rings" films earned an estimated $6 billion from movie tickets, DVDs and merchandise.

"Well, no problem. I've got it covered."
Nelia, Elizabeth F., & Rachael,
- Related Wreckage: Supermom VS the Diabolical Decorator of Doom
When professional cakes go horribly, hilariously wrong.
The karate kid girl on the right looks like Polly Pocket. (I'm sad that I know that.)
In my defense, my sister loved those.
Where do they hold the annual "International Ying/Yang Wig Kicking Competition"? In this corner, we have Blondie who will be facing off in the circle against her arch enemy, Brunette! I guess we'll really see who has more fun now!
Josh Metcalf
oh, clever!
the karate cake was my favorite.
the hair looked like the little magnetic polly pocket hair. obviously fake, but strangely adorable.
LOL!! Please tell me that first cake isn't a professional one. That's just sad.
Personally, I think the icing wigs are not a wreck at all, but pure hysterical genius!
I love "There, I fixed it." But usually the fix-ups there are a bit more creative than these Wreckerators could manage.
And I totally just added "Wreckerator" to Firefox's dictionary.
What, no comments on the first cakes misspelling of Birthday? Happy Briday?
Whew! That was close. And the smudge under the H will distract people from noticing it's a Briday cake.
The first cake is really terrible, an awful presentation. I think I'll go cry in a corner.
OMG, sooo funny! Yes, the smeared out H is way better now...just home no one notices briday isn't a word.
I ordered a cake for my daughter's bday party tomorrow and sent in a picture to the bakers for guidance. I am hoping that it doesn't become fodder for your website. If so (ie if it's a wreck) look for an email/pics from me on Sunday!
At least we didn't see any duct tape.
That the trouble with cake making, no edit feature.
"No one will EVER know..."
Psh, yeah, RIGHT.
The karate touch-up job actually wasn't too bad, though the color scheme was a little odd. The rest, though... *shakes head* Sad, sad, sad.
yeeaahhh, cuz the 'h' is what was wrong with the first one.....good thing they caught that before the customer got there!
The karate one is actually kind of a cute idea. Sort of.
That purply-pink thing is just terrible for so many reasons. I don't have time to go into them all, very busy here and all that jazz.
good morning, I totally followed that "There I fixed it link" WOW!
I thought the karate girls looked ok to me. It was genius really, it didn't look overly sloppy.
I actually thought this post *was* from TIFI when it came up in my feed reader. :P
I'm so surprised that you didn't mention something about the first cake saying Happy Briday. I liked the "scrapes", though. Nice.
Those karate guys..er...girls sure are cute.
My jaw dropped when I saw that first one. I'm thinking that the 'H' repair turned out so badly there wasn't any reason to even attempt to fix the 'Birday'! Wow!!
Happy Briday? Is that like Friday? Or Bride-day?
Oh, my! The pigtales are actually kind of cute, but the bleeding letter is sad. And what's with the 2 globs of frosting on the last? The first glob just didn't cover it enough, so they had to add another?
There's an extra dubya in your dubyadubyadubya.thereifixedit link. :)
Not only did they scrape the H off... but... BRIDAY? happy briday... hm.
Dang. The last cake would've looked pretty good if not for the name cover.
Jen, I'm surprised you mentioned only the wiping of the H on the first cake. "Briday" is very sloppily lettered, and I'm not sure if it means "Birthday" or "Friday." Maybe a portmanteau word. And of course, the lime green is icky.
My husband's and my rehearsal dinner cake had my name spelled wrong, despite my MIL spelling it for the bakery. She fixed it with a butter knife. Turned Amy (wrong) into Amie (right)...
(writing) "h... a... p... (are there two p's or one?, Hmm, let's go with two) p... y... aww crap I forgot to capitalize H. (fixes, sorta) B... r... i... d... a... y. Happy Briday! Yup, I think they're are going to LOOOVE this work of art! Wait, what there's supposed to be an r, t, and h in that word. Nah, that'd look silly!"
really? How the hell does one figure that birthday is spelled like Friday with a B?
Hey, I think the karate cake is a little awesome, at least for a Wreckerator. Yeah it looks kinda dorky, but I think that's the laughable kinda dorky, not the lamentable kind. :)
h/Happy Briday!?
This is excellent, I love that the decorator went to all that trouble to fix the 'Happy' on the first cake and didn't even bother to spell 'Birthday' correctly! Maybe it was getting all a bit much for him/her?
wreck 1. it just makes me sad.
wreck 2. i rather like the pink hairbows in the impromptu hair. however, one should never use orange and pink together. ever.
wreck 3. whaaa?! why didn't they just go ahead and write another name on it?! in its defense, i think it's a lovely lilac-y color.
terry lee
Happy Briday to Everybody! Go out and celebrate! Call off work ~ it's Briday!
haha! OK, I feel that the karate one is not that bad. They probably could not find a template of female martial artists to use due to existing gender bias....ok the hair didn't have to be so poofy, but the entire cake looks pretty well done.
I miss my karate days. My knees are wrecked and the surgeon sternly told me to cease and desist. :(
The other two are just insanely bad!!! Once again, even the shell borders are messed up! How do they hire these inept dummies when people with actual skills are dying for a job?
Hey, that karate kid cake is AMAZING. I kind of want it.
Thanks for a giggle this morning. Love the first one. Your captions are what make me laugh. The cakes make me sad.
Actually, "Happy Briday" is for a wedding that takes place on the bride's birthday.
My daughter will love the first cake! Her Birthday party is this weekend and since she's Brianna, but goes by Bri, this would have been perfect to put on her cake since the day is all about her. I better get on the phone with the baker pronto and have the cake changed. Hope there's still time...
The "wrong name" cake is fantastic! Just keep piling it on, there, wreckorator, pile in on thick.
WV- worsel- They couldn't have done it up worsel, could they? Hmm.
Guys, I'm pretty sure Jen noticed "Briday." I think she was being tongue in cheek by saying that post-scraping, it was "perfect."
It's hard to decide which is wreckier-- a wal-mart cake with a horrible correction/misspelling (I mean, once you see that round confetti, your expectations drop) or a decently decorated cake with a name blotted out in a DOUBLE LAYER of frosting applied with the cake icing tip!
Uh, guys?
The joke that Jen was making with the first cake was that "correcting the H" was the only thing the decorator saw wrong. Not the terrible handwriting, not the misspelled "briday", not the interesting color choices...
wow... some people who read your blog are so slow. it's SARCASM people. yes, Jen can read. she is AWARE that the first cake says "briday." man, i'd hate to be stuck in a room with some of these people!
I actually think the karate wigs are kinda clever. Yes of course they look out of place, but they look adorable. Hiyaa! or whatever. I'm never good at spelling sounds.
These are true CW classics! My workday is already a little brighter!
Too funny!!
tee-hee haaaaaa haaaaaa!!!!!
I actually think the karate cake was a good save. :D
Why assume "Briday" is a mistake? Perhaps they just got a nice bottle of Briday burgundy and the thought of having it with cake made them happy. Cake and wine, I'd certainly be smiling. :-p
Haha I actually kind of love the karate cake. For a second I didn't even see the problem. I think the decorator was pretty fast on his/her feet to think of it and it blended in decently (sort of). Not a wreck =)
Note to self: Don't drink and decorate cakes!
What about the fact that the first cake said "Briday" instead of Birthday?!?
It looks like the cover-up blob on the last cake was even airbrushed a bit, either to camouflage the lump or maybe make it look intentional.
Happy Briday. xD
Love that site, too, Jen. But not as much as yours! I can't believe it took me until 2:40 this afternoon to visit you and get my laugh!
Josh, you silly... That's Betty and Veronica!
That last cake has left me scratching my head... WHY??? What were they thinking? Blank Blob = Gorgeous Cake? Seriously... WHY????
Aww, I thought the karate cake was cute and kinda resourceful!
The first cake on the other hand? Besides the wonky "H", what was the big deal? Oh, well... TGIB!! (Thank Goodness it's Briday) ;-)
The hair is awesome.
Three cheers for girls in martial arts. :)
Is 'Briday' a mix of 'birthday' and 'Friday'--for when your birthday is on Friday? I swear, that's all the rage...Bennifer...Brangelina...Briday...
The karate cake gets points for execution; however, there is a deduction for the toxic orange border.
And the pink cake--looks like something someone can take home and wreck for themselves! "Add-a-name cake makes wrecks at home possible!" XD
WV: Redneat--Miles Frasier at a NASCAR race.
So should that cake say "Happy Friday?" or perhaps it's a shower/wedding cake---"Happy Bride-Day." Love the one where they must've messed up the name 2 or 3 times and just gave up after using the icing equivalent of 'white out.' With purple airbrushing, to help hide the mistake.........
So my five-year-old daughter was looking over my shoulder as I looked at these and when I got to the last one, she exclaimed:
Oh! That's what I want for my birthday! Except it has to have my name on it.
I could be incorrect, but I believe the words are Yin and Yang.
In this cakey case, though, WTH--let's let them take a ying at it.
Duke it out--and may the best...er...person win!
Hmmm...I wonder if Maddy's the one with the lemon hair or the chocolate hair.
About the last cake; I have to say that I find that particularly dreamy shade of lavendar extremely restful and tranquil...
Why, I might just crawl right in there, lie down on that cake (using the *whatever-y* slabs for a pillow), and have me a bit of a snooze...
Wake me up if a customer shows any interest.
Or in the morning.
Whichever comes first.zzzzzzzzzzz
Is it bad I think the last one could have been saved? instead of a rectangular mass to cover the wrong name, just pipe something that looks like a ribbon, with the pointy ends, and write on top of it
Do they not TRAIN cake decorators AT ALL?? Do they just thrust a pastry bag at the first applicant who walks in the door???
LOL! That first cake looks like someone bought a plain bakery cake and tried to match the green with one of those green gel frosting tubes. At least I hope that's what happened!
It's gotta be "GONE FISHING" - that one is awesome.
Thought I would answer some questions about my Happy Briday Cake.
My husband decided to surprise me with a cake for my birthday. He stopped in at a store that included a bakery, picked up a cake and waited while they wrote "Happy Birthday" on it. It was done by the person working in the bakery. He said she was obviously having a bad day and the customer before him had been very unhappy with what she had written on his cake. When my husband saw the mess she had made of my cake he told her it was fine and bought it.
I was very happy with my cake. It amused me. Every time I looked at I laughed. It was so bad in so many ways. It continues to amuse me as i read the comments here.
janet2buns, you made me giggle. My SIL works in a high end store bakery and she assures me that yes, pretty much any idiot who can stand upright is given a decorator bag full of neon colored frosting and put to work. Speaking English is a secondary consideration, knowledge of spelling and grammar third. But if you can pipe giant mounds of icing that look kinda like balloons/flowers/clowns, you get a bonus!
My favorite is the hair....it's rockingly BAD. :D
What are the odds? Today is my birthday, my name is Bri, lo and behold...
'Happy Briday!'
So does Briday come before or after Falker Satherhood?
wv: tripult - a catapult designed to launch three wrecky cakes at once
The Angry Jackalope said...
"My SIL works in a high end store bakery and ...yes, pretty much any idiot who can stand upright is given a decorator bag full of neon colored frosting and put to work."
That's pretty insulting, I think!
But hilarious!
And if that's "high end," imagine how great the "low end" store bakeries are doing...
Why not just turn the customers loose back there to do their own?
All the fun of home (!!) but the employees have to clean up the mess!!
What could be easier?
Those are sad. LOL
~Amy B
Do people actually pay for these things when they are that awful?
A PS to my former post:
My Briday cake was what lead to my finding this blog. I took a picture, of course, and showed my cake to anyone who would look. When I showed it to my daughter-in-law she told me I had to send it to Cake Wrecks. I said "Cake Wrecks? What's that?"
I am now gradually making my way through the entire blog. So much fun.
I'd say the karate girls are the best. I don't know if I'd thought of that. I think I would've went for the obvious, karate poodle skirt wearing women who have boys haircuts.
Ok, the karate cake, genius LOL -- the first cake OMGoodness - what the heck? I'd NEVER let a cake like that walk out my door. LOL
What's "Briday"? Is that when your birthday falls on a Friday?
Haven't you heard of Bridays? It's a slang term for Bachelorette parties.
Get it ' ' . .. . Bride Day . . Briday?
Oh I'm just a riot.
2nd cake....its not Briday, it's "Brie-day". What's better than a cake that's not a cheesecake, but the purpose is the celebration of cheese? Not much, I'd say.
The I and the E are the same letter, to save space, and...uh...conserve Earth's natural resources (all of that green food dye).
I'm a glass-half-full person.
WV: machacur
"Those cakes were all part of the infamous Brie-Day Machacur, which will go down in history as one of the darkest days in cake-dom."
"Happy Briday"?
The comments are getting tedious to read. Although there were only FIVE people complaining that Jen didn't mention the misspelling explicitly, it seemed like so many more. Tiresome.
I vote (since everyone treats this as a democracy and not your personal blog) that only one "I am clueless" comment and moderate out the rest. Haha!
While they aren't "mean spirited" they do insult Jen's intelligence and creativity and don't have to be posted.
Where are Alix and Haiku Joy?
I need a haiku...
Mistakes I can hide
Big blobs of frosting cover
My ineptitude
Wv: Loingral - the karata students were advised to avoid the loingral kicks.
These are too much! Still...they did give me some creative ideas for the next time I really screw up. http://blog.sweetservices.com/sweetscandyblog/
803 comments on the tour post, almost every one of them lamenting the fact that we're not going to one city or another. Take out all the repeats and you get 13 city laments and 790 folks who are now ticked at you for not posting their comments. But you know what? Even though I have to moderate every...single...comment, Jen and I are extremely flattered and humbled by the fact that so many people take the time to talk to us.
And sure, some people don't get a joke, but isn't it fun to be the first to mock them? I'm just saying.
I miss Alix and Haiku Joy as well, but they're probably just on vacation or something. The Courteous Chihuahua came back so I have faith.
Wreck On!
John--There's a Courteous Chihuahua?? I'm clearly out of the loop lately....
I would love the karate cake if the color scheme didn't make me physically ill. For Cake 1 and Cake 3, I simply have no words.
And to Nelia of the Briday Cake: I once thought I was the world's most avid avoider of confrontation, but CLEARLY your hubby takes that prize, and possibly sainthood as well. You are indeed a lucky soul. (Well, with men, anyway. Not so much with cake, though.)
Yes, of course, the mocking should compensate! :)
I know you will post them all, and I didn't really mean they should be left out.
And I feel bad for being one of the ATL foot stompers for the tour. In my defense, I was in the first wave, and there weren't any atl comments yet when I wrote it.
Hope the tour goes great!
Thanks as always for the daily laughs!
Another sad/misogynistic thing is that the karate fix even had to be made... aren't there enough girls in martial arts to warrant a "girl" template? Terrible... though decent enough job 'fixing' it, compared to the others!
haha! These are hilarious. I especially love the commentary about each cake. The first one looks like it was written with the left hand (if the person is right handed).
OMG that Karate cake reminds of the wreck that happened to be my daughters 7th birthday cake. She asked for a girl bowling cake and got a boy...it was awful. Everyone at the party was shocked and didn't say a word to my daughter.
the last cw has me thinking about what bakeries do when someone neglects to pick up a cake. just "purple-out" the name, i guess.
Hey EB--The store bakeries I've noticed tend to scrape off the name (with varying degrees of success) and sell the anonymously-'Happy Birthday"-ed cake at a markdown. Of course, as often as not this means you're wishing Happy Birthday to "greenish blob followed by light-green streak"...
Wait, I think that's one of my cousins, actually.
Fixed it... except not. Happy Briday, eh? Someone was pre-drinking on a Friday for their friend's birthday. Probably singing some song about Friday in congruence with the Happy Birthday song while trying to scrawl on the cake. Ace.
I've been missed!
Cattywompus wig?
Just give a high kick, yelling
"Happle Bri -hiyah!"
did anyone notice the mayjor tyop on the first cake? Isabelle

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)
We don't have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it's cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.
Payments must be made through Paypal, which accepts all major credit cards. Sorry, but that means no checks or MOs or barter-based chickens.
We ship everything first class USPS, and will do our best to have your package in the mail within 2 days of your order.

Cardiovascular Disease Prevention in Bernards, NJ
Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in the United States. It involves not only ailments of the heart but the arteries as well.
As a person ages , it becomes increasingly important to employ a range of medical and lifestyle changes to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Having a healthy heart is not only a surefire way to live a longer, richer life, but it can also reduce the risk of other afflictions such as a stroke .
Here are a few tips to adapt into your everyday life, on your own, or with the help of a medical professional.
Improve your eating habits.
- Increase the amount of fruits and vegetables you eat every day.
- Eat more whole grains.
- Limit the amount of saturated fat (typically found in red meat and dairy products), trans fat (found in anything that includes the term "partially hydrogenated" in the ingredients), and cholesterol you consume.
- Eat more low fat proteins including fish high in Omega-3 such as salmon and mackerel. Omega-3 is known to decrease the risk of heart attacks and lower blood pressure. In addition to fish, it can also be found in supplements derived from flaxseed oil, walnut oil, soybean oil, and canola oil.
- Decrease the amount of sodium in your diet.
- Limit your portions. This one may be the simplest and yet the hardest, but can be accomplished by limiting the time you spend dining out, putting less on your plate at home, and avoiding second helpings.
Exercise regularly.
Proper exercise goes hand in hand with a healthy diet, and Harvard researchers have provided the math to back up these claims.
They've found a 20% reduction in heart disease for those who engage in a steady dose of intense workouts such as running, jogging, swimming, playing tennis or aerobics classes. A 10% reduction can even be attained through moderate activities like walking, golf, or yard work. -
Get tested by a health professional.
When trying to prevent heart disease, the best approach is a proactive one. Regular testing of your blood pressure and cholesterol levels can pinpoint areas of concern before they become a serious problem.
Regular testing for diabetes or an irregular heartbeat, and treating these afflictions, is also vital in maintaining a healthy heart. -
Eliminate bad habits.
Smoking is already known to cause certain forms of cancer, but it is also a detriment to the cardiovascular system. The chemicals found in tobacco not only damage red blood cells but blood vessels as well.
Excessive alcohol consumption should be equally avoided. It can increase blood pressure by forcing the heart to work harder, and contributes to the growth of fat build-up in the arteries.

Michael Miller
I grew up in Santa Fe in the 1950's and 60's. I graduated from St. Mikes's in 1967. I served as Director of the New Mexico Records Center and Archives, Director of the Center for Southwest Research, UNM, and retired as Director of Research and Literary Arts at the National Hispanic Cultural Center of New Mexico. Today, I am involved in the preservation of New Mexico's environment and cultural heritage. I volunteer for a number of organizations and I am particularly interested in working with young people. I believe that the traditional values of NM and the rich heritage passed on by our ancestors is one of the most important ways to reach out to our young people and help eliminate many of the social, economic, environmental, and political problems created in the 21st century. Family values, culture, tradition, respect for the Earth, spirituality, preservation of our natural resources and traditional knowledge must be passed on to the next generation to help them cope with the world today. I believe that it is the responsibility of every adult to mentor and nourish the minds of the young. I enjoy flyfishing, bow hunting, farming, and the wonders of nature.
