Experience of Prospect to Active Franchisee
Steve Dixon – Animals at Home Mid Kent
I found the AAH web site interesting and informative enough to ensure I added this franchise to my short list. My initial contact with AHH was responded to quickly and in a friendly manner. I received the prospectus in the post within the time stated. (This was not my experience of other pet/animal related franchisors and I am, to this day still waiting for one to come back to me even though I requested details twice.) The prospectus contained enough information for me to make the decision to take this to the next stage which was my meeting with Ann. The meeting with Ann was informal but professional and very informative. Again, this positive experience gave me the confidence to progress the opportunity. At no time was I harassed or put under any pressure by AAH.
My trip overseas (IOW) to meet Denis was a very enjoyable and relaxed day. After this I felt able to discuss the business in detail with my wife, friends and family and this in turn led to me deciding to proceed. The three days spent at the Veterinarian practice was fascinating and informative. It was pleasure to spend time amongst such dedicated professionals. The two day on territory training with Iain was invaluable. Iain has huge amounts of information, enthusiasm and experience to share. The days were well planned and we covered an enormous amount. Having Iain with me to complete my first visits to Vets was a great confidence builder. I have been able to use his style of initial approach and presentation of AAH on subsequent solo visits.
Gillian Milton – Animals at Home West Sussex
My first encounter with Animals At Home was through my local franchisee in East Sussex. I was impressed by the level of care and service I experienced for my own animals which carried on through into my first meeting and subsequent training. Animals At Home is a tried and tested total business package which I've had full confidence in right from the beginning. Every step has been well thought through from the initial prospectus pack to the training received at the vets and all the management team are approachable and human! The support network has made my Animals At Home start up easy with the emphasis on taking it at your own pace, this is a marathon not a sprint.

Seriously adorable news from the actress
Everybody loves a good baby announcement and Jessica Alba has just revealed that she's pregnant in THE cutest video.
The actress is expecting baby number three with husband Cash Warren and roped in her daughters Honor, 9, and Haven, 5, to help her reveal the happy news to her fans.
PICS Get the print clash mash up trend as worn by Jessica Alba
In a clip posted on Instagram a smiling Jessica, 36, rubs her bump and holds up an inflatable number 3 whilst Honor and Haven show off number 1 and 2 balloons respectively.
'@cash_warren and I are officially going to be outnumbered #babyonboard #herewegoagain 👶🏼🤰🏽#blessed🙏,' the expectant star captioned the sweet footage.
Awww. Jessica has received lots of touching messages from fans since sharing the happy announcement.
'Love this announcement & congratulations 💕💕💕💕,' one fan commented, whilst another wrote: 'I thought you were glowing in your pics too ! That's awesome ! Congrats to you and your family !'
Many have also started speculating about the sex and wondering if Jessica will have a boy this time.
It's not yet known when the movie star – who has been married to film producer hubby Cash, 38, since 2008 – is due to welcome the new arrival.
Jessica will certainly have her hands full when baby number three makes their entrance into the world, given that she balances being a parent with acting AND running a successful business.
The actress founded The Honest Company in 2011 – which supplies non-toxic household products – and this branched out to Honest Beauty a few years later.
But whilst she might seem to have it all together, Jessica recently admitted that she's far from perfect as a mother.
'I don't try to pretend like I have all the answers and I certainly don't think I'm perfect,' she tells People. 'So when my kids say something, instead of me being so reactive, I think about how I can be better.
'Sometimes my mind is in too many different places and I'm not always in the moment.'
Looks like this might become even more of a challenge now that baby number three is on the way!
Congrats to Jessica, Cash, Honor and Haven on their happy news.

Melinda Moustakis
As we got off the plane all I could think about was my jean shorts. How long it's been since I've gotten to wear them and how I will wear them as soon as we get our entrance visas stamped. Entrance visas take a long time to get stamped, it turns out. We can feel the thick weighing down the airport from inside of it. I want my legs to see the sun. I want my jeans to return to my backpack and shut up about not being chosen. Hours and hours go by because the lineups are all over the place. The taxi driver takes us the long way, round and round, before dropping us off at our hotel. The hotel staff needs to get through their spiel. Today I'm doing pants and shorts. And gratitude. And abundance.

There is no better way to see everything Holland has to offer than by getting behind the wheel of your Enterprise rental car. Don't spend time waiting for the bus or hailing taxis to go to the sights. When you have access to your own vehicle, you can go anywhere you want to go, when you want. Make your next trip to Michigan more enjoyable with an Enterprise car rental.
Holland is a perfect town when you desire some respite from busyness of a big city. With everything there is to do, you'll need your own auto to see and do as much as you can during your trip. If you need to mix it up from Holland's easy-going vibes, then jump behind the wheel of your Enterprise rental car and see what else is out there.
CarRentals.com works with the top businesses in the industry. Enterprise started back in 1957 with a fleet of only seven automobiles. Today, they're recognized as world-wide leader in the rental car industry, with over 7,600 locations in 85 countries. Enterprise takes pride on fantastic customer service and being ready when you need them the most.
CarRentals.com strives to get you the best rates, whether you reserve your car. But reserving ahead of time can help you save even more. Be sure to read the mileage policy and don't add an extra driver to avoid any surprise fees.
You will need to bring your driver's permit and a credit card in your name.
Enterprise's minimum age to rent a car in Holland is 21. Some rentals, especially higher category vehicles, may have an additional fee if you are under 25. Take time to read through Enterprise's policy to find out what the total cost is for you.
That depends on how many people you are traveling with and what activities you want to do in Holland. Compact or economy vehicles are easier to park and great for short drives. If you are traveling with a bigger group, then a SUV or a sedan is going to have more room for luggage and offer a more comfortable ride. Those looking for a bit of extravagance on their Holland vacation can choose the premium category for a car like an Audi A4 or Cadillac XTS or similar.
You are required to have insurance before you rent from Enterprise in the United States. Although many of the major card issuers, like Visa or American Express, offer some coverage, there are usually restrictions. For example, they may not cover your rental car if you book a luxury or larger vehicle. Make sure to check credit card issuer's policy before you decide. Otherwise, as a U.S. citizen, you can book Collision Damage Coverage with CarRentals.com at checkout.
Enterprise does require a deposit when you reserve your rental. Enterprise will block the deposit on your credit once you reserve your rental for your trip to Holland. Please be aware that the deposit may vary greatly based on the make and model of the car.
We encourage a full to full policy. You should get into your automobile with a full tank. But, if you return your rental with less than the amount it was given to you, most companies will charge a premium, and sometimes up to triple the amount of current gas prices to refill it. For a cheaper rate, it is best to fill up your tank before you return the car to Enterprise.
Holland's small-town atmosphere definitely has its charms, but you may want to hit the road again after you've checked off all the activities in Holland. If you are wanting to add some adventure to your Holland trip, you can also head to Nelis' Dutch Village and spend an afternoon taking on the park's attractions.
Enterprise typically offers one-way rentals. You may find it more convenient to return your rental car at a different Enterprise. However, there may be an additional fee when you opt for one-way.
Once you've checked off the must-see sights in Holland, having your own automobile will allow you to see what else Michigan offers. When you're ready to check out more of Michigan, you can go when you want to, without trying to hail a taxicab or sign up for a ride-share.
Before you head out of town, book your Enterprise Holland rental car and zip off to take in all the must-do activities at your own pace. Go through CarRentals.com and drive the highway in Holland, Michigan.

MSCI classifies six of the Gulf's seven bourses, including those in the UAE and Qatar, as frontier markets
The United Arab Emirates and Qatar may become the first Arabian Gulf countries to allow short- selling as regulators seek to revive trading volumes and secure MSCI Inc's Emerging Markets status.
The implementation of short-selling is "in line with the efforts to upgrade the UAE markets," the country's regulator said in an e-mailed response to questions. Qatar's exchange has also signalled it will introduce short-selling and derivatives trading, in addition to raising the percentage of shares foreigners can own in a company to 49 percent from 25 percent.
"As these markets join the MSCI EM, more attention will be focused on them," volumes will probably rise and the market will likely become more efficient, said Philippe Langham, who runs the $660m Royal Bank of Canada Emerging Markets Fund in London. Langham doesn't hold investments in the UAE or Qatar and would consider buying stocks after an upgrade. "We would spend more time looking for attractive opportunities in any markets that look set for promotion."
Gulf markets have struggled to revive trading volumes after the world's worst recession since the Great Depression and a collapse in property prices in the region's financial bellwether, Dubai. At the same time, inflows into emerging- market stock funds have surpassed $84.3bn so far in 2010, putting them on course for a record year, according to Boston- based EPFR Global.
Short sellers borrow and sell an asset, hoping to profit by buying it back later for less.
'Mitigating risk'
MSCI classifies six of the Gulf's seven bourses, including those in the UAE and Qatar, as frontier markets, a designation that typically applies to economies and financial markets that are less developed than emerging markets. Saudi Arabia's market is not categorised. MSCI indexes are tracked by investors with an estimated $5.2 trillion in assets, according to a May 26 report by Shinhan Investment Corp.
The index provider this June will revalue its assessment by examining, among others, economic development, trading volumes and market accessibility. MSCI this year cited the UAE and Qatar's dual account structures - segregated custody and trading accounts - as one of the reasons for their frontier market status and kept the countries under review for reclassification. MSCI declined to comment when contacted by Bloomberg.
"International investors with exposure to the region want to have the derivatives that will allow them to mitigate risk," said Peter Gotke, vice president of depository receipts at Bank of New York Mellon Corp. "In the absence of derivatives, the introduction of short-selling would be welcomed by investors, and could be one way of arming themselves against that perceived risk or illiquidity."
FTSE ranking
FTSE Group became the first to categorise the UAE as a secondary emerging market in September, helping attract part of the $3 trillion of funds that track the index compiler's benchmarks. Shares of 21 companies including Emaar Properties PJSC were added to the FTSE's Global Equity Index after the close on Sept 17. FTSE classifies Qatar as a frontier market.
The UAE indices will remain a secondary emerging market at FTSE for at least another year, according to Jonathan Cooper, FTSE's managing director for the Middle East and Africa. "There are still challenges that need to be overcome and the UAE will need some more time," he said.
The volume of shares traded in Dubai and Abu Dhabi this year is less than half of what it was in 2009. It's down 43 percent in Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Abu Dhabi-based Union National Bank PJSC was dropped from the MSCI Global Standard Indices after it failed to meet liquidity requirements, the index provider said on Dec 6.
UNB's exclusion
"UNB is the fourth-largest bank in Abu Dhabi" and its deletion highlights the lack of volumes in UAE markets, said Tarik El Mejjad, a London-based analyst at Nomura International Plc. "The low liquidity levels do not justify inclusion in the MSCI emerging markets index next year."
The MSCI Emerging Markets Index has gained 13 percent so far this year, extending last year's 75 percent rally, the biggest since data began in 1988. The MSCI Frontier Markets Index has increased 16 percent after rising 7 percent in 2009. Dubai's benchmark index has lost 6.1 percent this year, even after rallying 16 percent in the second half. Abu Dhabi's measure is up 0.7 percent and Qatar's 26 percent.
Default position
The UAE regulator also expects to introduce Delivery Versus Payment and security lending and borrowing, both MSCI criteria, according to the Securities and Commodities Authority statement. Essa Kazim, chief executive of the Dubai Financial Market PJSC, said in September that DvP will be implemented by the end of the year.
DvP is a securities industry procedure in which payment for a security must be made when the security is delivered. Usually, the payment is made to a bank, which pays for the security.
"Although funds are not required to invest into every part of their benchmark, the default position is often to do so," said Paul Cooper, Dubai-based managing director at Sarasin-Alpen & Partners Ltd., which oversees more than $500m in the Middle East. "Promotion to the MSCI index would therefore certainly yield additional demand for local equities and given the substantial amount of money benchmarked to the MSCI index the impact would be significant."

I think that Lavos was not able to create the pocket dimension until after he emerges in 1999 AD. This would explain why he doesn't just destroy the planet shortly after he arrives in 65,000,000 BC. (Plus, wouldn't he miss out on the dna of quite a few creatures?) When Lavos is summoned in 12,000 BC, it is not the true Lavos of that time period, but rather the Lavos from the pocket dimension. I think that this is true no matter how you fight Lavos. (This is assuming that Lavos creates the pocket dimension almost immediately after emerging in 1999 AD.) Logged rotorkid Iokan (+1) Posts: 12 Four Lavos Questions « Reply #1 on: December 13, 2003, 07:46:30 pm » The reason I don't believe in the Pocket Dimension theory is that if Chrono and co. killed Lavos in all times, he would be unable to summon back the Chronopolis which means that either this is a plot hole or more likely the battle has to have happened sometime after 7600 BC and before 1999AD Logged Drumguy074 Earthbound (+15) Posts: 30 Four Lavos Questions « Reply #2 on: December 16, 2003, 03:01:38 am » What I was saying is that Lavos doesn't create the pocket dimension until 1999. This may sound odd, but it would mean that Lavos would exist outside of time, while still existing inside the normal timestream in some form. Logged Daniel Krispin Guest Four Lavos Questions « Reply #3 on: December 16, 2003, 03:33:48 am » Okay, tell me if there is anything that contradicts this, but this is my theory. I seem to remember from somewhere in CC, though I might be mistaken, that the Tesseract is where lost strands of time go. Think of the original, "evil", timeline and the changed, "good", timeline from CT (ie. Lavos alive vs. Lavos killed) as two strands unravelling from the same string. Now say that if time is changed drastically enough it doesn't just seperate into two strands, the other strand is actually cut and becomes a lost strand floating in temporal "space", ie. the Tesseract. This would mean that while, in the new timeline, Lavos as a being bound to time is indeed dead (regardless of what time he was killed in, in the year 1999+ he will be dead), he is not dead in the Tesseract. Now Lavos is a mighty creature. Moreover, there is Schala. In the confusion of space/time at the ocean palace, she literally fell out of history, into the Tesseract. So, both she and Lavos are in that realm of chaos. And by some magical means their souls merge. Whether or not Lavos had senience before is a matter of debate, but by the Time Devourer's malicious control of time, it does have intelligence, perhaps through Schala. All this, I believe, is in accordance with what the game says. Lavos is destroyed in CT, and ceases to exist. He is certainly in the Tesseract, and so is Schala. With their combined magic, they may have the power to reunify their lost time strand to the true one, perhaps altering it to their own ends. But however this is accomplished, it is certain that the Time Devourer has, through Schala, the power to reach into the real world. I could go on for a long time about this, but I don't think I'd say anything new. Basically I say that the time devourer is a soul fusion between Schala and the future that Crono destroyed, hence when the ghosts say that the future that was destroyed is about to have its revenge.I think that this is a very simple theory that does not contradict either game in any way that I can think of, though I may be wrong. Has anyone else said this yet? Probably, but I only skimmed through the other replies. Logged GrayLensman Guru of Reason Emeritus Dimension Crosser (+1000) Posts: 1031 Four Lavos Questions « Reply #4 on: January 25, 2004, 02:30:42 am » Recently there have been further discussion of the pocket dimension theory in the Compendium's nightly AIM chat sessions. Given this, and that the diagram was misplaced, here is a recap of the theory with some new developments.Lavos Pocket Dimension Theoryhttp://www.chronocompendium.com/images/Articles/lavosdimension1.gifLavos displays some strange behavior. If the travelers defeat the shell and warp into the past, the shell is still defeated. A strange blue aura surrounds Lavos during the Ocean Palace disaster and the final battle. Lavos Core is able to open time warps to different eras. Lavos also appears to have knowledge of the future; during the final battle it emulate the fighting techniques of Guardian, which exists in 2300 AD. A possible explanation is that Lavos exists within a pocket dimension or "time bubble" which transcends time. When Lavos arrived on earth in 65 million BC, it created a pocket dimension separate from normal space time. A wormhole connects the pocket dimension to every time period.An observation made by chronotriggerfreak is that the wormhole connecting the pocket dimension to space-time would be governed by the same axiom governing Gates, namely: "Determining the Destination of Time Travel via Epoch and Time Gates". Because of this, the rate of time must be the same in the pocket dimension as the outside world.Lavos' time axis would be perpendicular to the normal flow of time. Lavos ages within the pocket dimension at a normal rate, but it appears to be the same from any given time period. For example, if Lavos had existed within the pocket dimension for six million years, it would appear to be six million years old from every time period.Anything done to Lavos from one time period, such as defeating the core, would be visible from all other time periods as well. Therefore, if the shell is defeated, Lavos appears to have no shell from each time period.Lavos is not actually physically present within the earth. The wormhole aperture is located at the earth's core, giving Lavos access to the planet's energy and lifeforms. During the Day of Lavos or the Ocean Palace disaster, the wormhole ascends to the surface, causing a dimensional disturbance. The wormhole offers an uninterrupted view of the pocket dimension, creating the illusion of Lavos' presence.If one approaches Lavos, and passes through the wormhole, the interior of the pocket dimension has appearance of the blue aura which surrounds Lavos. During the Ocean Palace Disaster, Queen Zeal, Magus and the others warp into the pocket dimension. During the final battle, Crono battles Lavos in the pocket dimension.Lavos core is able to open time warps to different times, because it is connected to those eras through the wormhole. The aperture of the wormhole gives a distorted view of the time period being accessed. Lavos is also able to survey the entire timeline and would have knowledge of, for example, Guardian's fighting style.After Lavos dies, the pocket dimension no longer connects to space-time, but the past Lavos exists on a separate timeline.As before, the only problem with the Pocket Dimension is that Lavos shell is always intact during the Ocean Palace disaster.Nature of Lavos' Space FlightAnother topic which was discussed was the nature of Lavos' space flight. During the short glimpse we are given of Lavos traveling through space on approach to earth in 65 million BC, Lavos demonstrated the capacity for powered maneuvering in space. Rather than collide with the earth in a hyperbolic trajectory, Lavos performs a braking maneuver in low earth orbit and slowly descends into the atmosphere. Lavos' self propulsion may be related to its magical power and manipulation of the Shadow element. Logged OathoftheTimeTraveler Earthbound (+15) Posts: 16 Four Lavos Questions « Reply #5 on: January 25, 2004, 09:27:09 pm » Something that bothers me about Lavos living in a pocket dimension, able to access any dimension. If Lavos saw the threat of Chrono and Co., and is sentient enough to comprehend it, why doesn't Lavos do something to try and prevent them from doing something about him/her(Lavos)? Logged Aitrus Guru of Life Emeritus Guardian (+100) Posts: 197 Four Lavos Questions « Reply #6 on: January 25, 2004, 11:05:53 pm » Well, who said it would? If you were a being that used planets as a food source, would you worry too terribly much about one lone mortal being? I wouldn't. Logged ZeaLitY Entity End of Timer (+10000) Posts: 10663 Spring Breeze Dancin' Four Lavos Questions « Reply #7 on: January 29, 2004, 06:26:26 pm » Lavos AIM Discussion #2GrayLensman, Aitrus, Ybrik Metaknight, Fxeni, chronotriggerfreak, JustinS1985Lavos-Underestimation TheoryThough Lavos may have had perspicacity enough to view all time periods, it underestimated the threat of Crono's party, and did not feel immediate action was worth the effort.CommentaryGrayLemsan: Basically, Lavos didn't think the travelers were worth the effort. Magus sought Lavos' destruction long before Crono did, but Lavos only attacked when it was forcibly summoned to the surface. In the Ocean Palace, Lavos easily snuffed out Crono. If Lavos had a mind to anticipate any final confrontation, it would have justafiably assumed it would be the victor. Can you image the power (mechanical power, in Watts) required to break through those thousands of kilometers of rock? Lavos only had the will to do so when its immenant survival was threatened by the Mammon Machine, or it was unwillingly summoned. Logged Kamek Iokan (+1) Posts: 14 Four Lavos Questions « Reply #8 on: January 31, 2004, 01:56:49 am » I was doing to suggest something about defeating Lavos' head in a New Game + at the Ocean Palace then losing to the innards, produces the 1999 AD bad ending. But since that didn't really happen, any argument based on that would be void.Belthasar's notes in 2300 AD says that Lavos "briefly disappeared" when Magus "summoned him away" in 600 AD. I don't even know which argument that statement applies to, but I figured I'd bring it up because it sounds important.As for 1999 AD, we know that the crew first fights Lavos in the pocket dimension, at which point they destroy his head and enter the shell. Assuming they used the gate and came back to 1999 AD later, this time they don't enter the pocket dimension, they walk right up to Lavos, who apparently busted out of the ground already, and discover that his head is missing. "Did we do that?"If Lavos can't attack with its head destroyed, how does he still destroy the world in 1999 AD if the core beats Crono & Co.?

When Magus summoned Lavos to his castle, he physically transported Lavos from the pocket dimension to 600 AD. During the fight between Magus and Lavos, or before Magus and the travelers were drawn into the Gate, Lavos disappeared from the earth for all time. After the confrontation was over, in either case, Lavos returned to the pocket dimension, and reappeared for all time. From outside observers, it would be as if Lavos had never left.Quote from: KamekAs for 1999 AD, we know that the crew first fights Lavos in the pocket dimension, at which point they destroy his head and enter the shell.

One couldn't fit in that hole anyway.Perhaps the cores are still living? That'd be a creepy thought, especially when one has to push the shell on Death Peak to access the upper regions. Also, in the Japanese version, it is said that those Krakkers are baby Lavoids.

This could easily explian how the travelers can walk around, and the continuing activity of the aura. Because time does not pass in the pocket dimension relative to outside, the frozen people will not notice the time they missed. No matter how long they stay in the pocket, they will return to exactly the same time in the Ocean Palace.xJPGIIx: Sounds good; it also explains why the people are frozen golden, and why Lavos also takes on a dark hue.GrayLensman01: I can't say I know what a person frozen in time would look like. They would probably be redshifted, if visible at all.

The Best Buying Guide
There's more to the vegan lifestyle than its plant-based diet. When you embrace the vegan life, it means giving up anything made out of animal by-products. This involves what we wear including our footwear specifically sandals.
So if you want to know which are the best vegan sandal brands, then keep reading!
Choosing A Pair Of Vegan Sandals
Some vegans might need a little help when it comes to picking a pair of sandals, as knowing what materials are ok and which ones to avoid is not so apparent.
To make life a little easier for you, here are some things you should remember:
What's It Made Of…
For a pair of sandals to be called "vegan", you have to look at the materials they are made of. Vegan sandals should be free from any animal byproducts. And this applies to all parts of the footwear!
Vegans should avoid sandals that are made of the following:
- Wool
- Silk
- Leather
- Feathers
- Fur
- Suede
- Snakeskin
Before you purchase a pair of sandals, make sure to check the tags. While some sandals may not specifically be tagged with the word "vegan", you should be able to identify if the materials are ok to wear.
Look for the phrases "100% synthetic" or "all man-made". And consider sandals made of the following materials:
- Synthetic Microfibers
- Canvas
- Fabrics
- Recycled and virgin rubber
- Faux-leather products
Apart from the materials, vegans should also look into the glue that pieces the sandals together.
There are some brands that claim to sell vegan sandals but are using glue or adhesive made from animals. Another thing to note is the use of animal-based dyes in coloring certain brands of sandals.
To be entirely sure that you don't fall into the trap of buying something that is not 100% vegan, you might want to do some research into the brand first.
Lucky for you, I have done some of the work for you already! See below for the vegan sandal brands I recommend.

Libyan MP: Extending UNSMIL's mandate prolongs Libya's crisis
The member of the Libyan House of Representatives (HoR) Musbah Douma said extending the mandate of the UN Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) is a prolongation to crisis in the country.
Douma told reporters on Saturday that UNSMIL failed the dialogue between HoR and High Council of State (HCS) as it did to other initiatives that aimed to solve the crisis in Libya.
"UNSMIL isn't neutral and Ghassan Samale is not abiding by his line of job." Douma added.
"Salame presented himself lately as the one who ceased fire in Tripoli - which is still ongoing - but has not said who was shelling vital institutions. He did not take heed of a statement by over 130 HoR members and 60 HCS ones who all said the Presidential Council was unable to be the leadership of the country." He further added.
Douma also questioned whether those parties whom Salame favors have sone their jobs regarding the political agreement or not, wondering if Salame is still committed to the international community, as he said, about security and economic plans.
"We call on all Libyan parties to meet in Tobruk without foreign intervention to amend the political agreement and include it in the constitutional declaration." He remarked.
Salame accused both HCS and HoR of standing in the way of the Libyan elections as they "pose threat to their existence."
"For the HoR and HCS, elections are a threat and they are impressing them constantly." He told the UN Security Council last Thursday.
"Libyans are waiting for those elections as away out of the crippled authorities that exist now." Salame added, citing a poll speaking of 80% of Libyans wishing to go elections.

David Beckham proves he is the sweetest dad ever with a single photo
Find out what he does for little Harper that's truly aww-inspiring
Ever since retiring from professional soccer in 2013, sports icon David Beckham has been concentrating his energies on various projects with the U.N. and being an all-around great dad to his four adorable kids.
They get most of his time these days but none more so than the youngest Beckham: 4-year-old Harper.
The devoted dad was captured by wife, Victoria, contentedly sitting on the floor, trying to figure out how to sew dresses for Harper's 'dollies'.
The aww-worthy instagram photo has nearly 400,000 likes to date.
It looks like Harper is the boss of the family.
"I have no power with that little girl — no power whatsoever," David told Entertainment Tonight last September.
Mum Victoria attests to how she is taking after her daddy as well. She told TODAY, "Harper loves football. It's like a dagger going into my heart! ... As much as she is girlie, she's a tomboy as well."

What do you do...?
Lynne replied to Cornelius's topic in Interpath Dialogue, Universal Virtues and ValuesI find that the belief I had as a child was for a child. I grew, learned and things always change as we grow in faith. I am still learning, growing day by day. My belief that God the Father came to earth as Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) will never change. But, all my faith is between God and myself. I do not chose to force my beliefs and my God on anyone. I personally don't think He likes it. I do not judge others. There are those that are condemned already because the Bible says so. But, then that is between them and God. In my ministry I try to help those in need, whether they are a believer or not. I plant the seed. I see a lot of people calming to be Christians that never do anything for others, but like the to clam they are following in Jesus's foot steps. I am not trying to pat myself and my husband on the back, but, show me you take young people in and help them, show me you feed the hungry. They are out there living by threads. We live in a society that don't have time to bring up their children and the minute they start talking back they are just kicked out. I call them throw away kids. I am a intercessory prayer warrior, my faith has changed with time because I am growing in knowledge. I learn new every day. I pray that I never let myself think I know it all. Because I do not. You put up a very interesting post. God Bless

On June 29, the SEC's Office of the Investor Advocate released a report that prioritizes addressing the inconsistency in the standard of care applicable to broker-dealers (a suitability standard) versus investment advisers (a fiduciary standard) in fiscal year 2018. The investor advocate emphasized the confusion this inconsistency can cause for investors, which has been compounded by the Department of Labor's recently-adopted fiduciary rules concerning recommendations made in the retirement plan context.
However, the investor advocate expressed concern about possible consumer harm if the SEC were to weaken the fiduciary standard for investment advisers or further confuse investors by purporting to provide them with the protections of a "fiduciary" duty that is actually less stringent than the traditional notion of fiduciary duty enshrined in other areas of law. The investor advocate, therefore, would have the SEC tailor any revised standard of care so that it deviates as little as possible from the current fiduciary standard applicable to investment advisers.
It will be interesting to see whether the SEC's commissioners and investor advocate ultimately agree on the extent to which deviations from such a fiduciary standard are necessary or appropriate. Formal and informal statements made to date by SEC Chairman Jay Clayton and Commissioner Michael Piwowar suggest that they, at least, would be more flexible in tailoring a standard of care to different circumstances than the investor advocate may support.
The investor advocate's report also called for Congress to provide the SEC with a respite from its various statutory mandates to free up resources for other rulemaking on "noncontroversial" and "promising ideas" that have taken a backseat. In this connection, the investor advocate singled out
the proposal for a variable annuity summary prospectus as a worthy candidate for SEC action. Nevertheless, observers in the insurance industry who have long awaited SEC action on this proposal know better than to read too much into this statement. The variable annuity summary prospectus has been on the SEC's "to-do" list for several years now, without ever, apparently, enjoying a high enough priority to be formally proposed for adoption.

On Monday, October 17, a high-security prison in Koutoukale, Niger was attacked by armed men. According to authorities reports, the attack was meant to free incarcerated Islamist militants. However, it was repelled by the police and no prisoners managed to escape.
Authorities said that the majority of inmates are members of Boko Haram. Others are also suspected Al Qaeda militants. These data have made authorities state that the attack was led by individuals linked to such groups; "I can confirm one dead among the attackers. He was wearing a suicide vest," said Interior Minister Mohamed Bazoum. He added that the attackers are likely to belong to the Mali-based Movement for Unity and Jihad in West Africa (MUJWA). He however stated: "The situation is now under control and our forces are combing the area to try to catch the attackers still at large."
Not the first terrorist attack in Niger in the last couple of months
Experts and authorities have linked the attack to others that have been recently led by Boko Haram and other similar groups. An American aid worker in central Niger was kidnapped from his house after his guards were killed, then transported towards Mali. A refugee camp in the Tahoua region was also attacked earlier this month leading to the death of 22 soldiers. As Niger's neighbours are countries characterised by political instability generated by extremist Islamist groups insurgencies, the whole region is constantly facing the threat of terrorism.

Julian Cope
Friday 31 January 2020 to
Friday 31st January 2020, 19:00 – 23:00
Singer, poet, occultist, photographer and all-out rockstar Julian Cope comes to the Ballroom in January, as part of his new album tour (album scheduled for release in January 2020).
The one-time frontman of the Teardrop Explodes is infamous for his onstage exploits, so expect the unexpected in this night of visionary rock'n'roll.
'The man should have his own blue plaque.' – NME
Tickets are £25.00 + booking fee in advance. This is a 14+ event. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.
More Details:
Julian Cope has enjoyed a 30-year career in the rock business; during that time, he has released over 20 solo albums, countless collaborative projects, and six acclaimed books. Cope began his career in 1977, as bass player in the short-lived Liverpool punk group The Crucial Three, alongside future Echo & The Bunnymen singer Ian McCulloch, before forming the Teardrop Explodes in late '78. This band's four-year reign as a Top Ten chart act collapsed at the end of 1982, when Cope's infamous love of munching LSD onstage proved too much for both his management and record companies.
In the late '80s, Cope made his welcome return to the charts with his album Saint Julian, followed in the '90s by such acclaimed albums as Peggy Suicide, Jehovakill and Autogeddon.
Cope's debut novel for Faber & Faber, One Three One, was published in 2014, accompanied by several soundtrack albums and a 12" single remixed by Andrew Weatherall. In 2017, Cope released and toured LP Drunken Songs. Since then, he has been engaged in completing his long-promised tome Lives of the Prophets for Faber & Faber.
Cope is also known for his detailed studies of the occult, mythology and Britain's prehistory, including the best-selling The Modern Antiquarian and The Megalithic European.

Where does an organizational culture come from?
Is the tone set from a singular mantra or is it built like a house, brick by consistent brick? As we wrapped up a marathon of new team member on-boarding activities (growing our logistics specialist workforce by over 40% since January), we realized that our culture will continue to evolve and grow with each new team member's influence. How can we create an environment that is bigger than ourselves but also dependent on each individual to make the sum something worth protecting?
We were recently humbled to receive concrete confirmation that what we have is, indeed, worth protecting. LeanCor was awarded the honor of a Top Workplace in Cincinnati. This happened because our team members demonstrated their engagement and satisfaction with our organization by taking an honest self-assessment survey, and their positive outlooks on working here secured us a high enough score to be acknowledged by the awarding body. This shows us that we must be doing something right.
One of those "right" things is called The LeanCor Way. Many businesses have their own different "ways," (and no, I'm not referring to Skyline Chili even though we love it here in NKY/Greater Cincinnati). The LeanCor Way is a documented sense of self, a description of our organization's identity through mission, vision, values, principles and strategy. The purpose is to create awareness and alignment with all team members on where we are and where we strive to be, just like a GPS system for the soul of our organization.
One of the major tent poles of lean thinking is an overarching respect for people. We take that very seriously and have learned over time what it looks like to create a culture in which our people know that they are the reason that we exist and win. Our internal people management system, which we refer to as TMATE (Team Member Advancement Through Engagement) is literally built by our team, for our team and creates a people-centric complement to our organization's mission: to advance the world's supply chains. This mission does not stop at LeanCor or with our partners. It's limitless.
As our company continues to grow and define different things about our self, we are constantly becoming more enlightened as to who we are, who we strive to be and the best management systems and business strategies to get us there. As part of this self-discovery, a journey almost fifteen years in the making, we have learned a lot along the way. We even consider ourselves a learning organization, if such a thing can exist, so we try to take time to reflect on what we've learned and share it with others. This, in and of itself, is dynamic…we are learning every single day.
That's going to be the purpose of this blog series going forward. We want to share what we have learned and are learning with regard to our culture, our team members and the management systems, tools and strategies that tie them all together. Specifically, we want to discuss our approach at LeanCor to:
- Recruiting and On-Boarding
- Performance Management Systems
- Employee Engagement Tactics
- Up-Skilling a Motivated Workforce
- Reflection and Planning for the Future
And as we discuss The LeanCor Way with each of our new team members during their on-boarding experience, we want to make sure that they understand the big picture at LeanCor. And, that they are among the artists that get to sign their names in the bottom corner along the way.

Raghuram Rajan: Why he does what he does4 min read . Updated: 08 Sep 2017, 07:47 PM IST
It is former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan's unstated but clear emphasis on process that stands out in a country, where it remains, to put it mildly, an aspirational quality for governance
It seems almost unimaginable now, but if there was one person with whom Prime Minister Narendra Modi jostled for media coverage and newspaper column inches, it was an academic-turned-bureaucrat in a grey suit.
Raghuram Rajan, who left India in September 2016 to resume his teaching career in the US after the expiry of his term as governor of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), was a darling of the media.
Arguably the most keenly followed central banker in the world—a man who resolutely insisted on civility and restraint in public debate—the papers have never seemed the same since the economist's departure.
Oh wait, he is back—in his grey suit, no less. And, not surprisingly, the papers have begun to sing again. The reason is a book by Rajan, called I Do What I Do, which is a collection of his speeches and writings mainly on monetary policymaking in India and other emerging nations.
But the timing of its publication was almost spooky in its newsworthiness, coming within days of RBI announcing that banks had received 99% of the invalidated high-denomination notes, a statement that threw a cloud on the original aims of demonetisation.
The news revived doubts over whether the short-term pains—the rate of economic growth slid, the labour-intensive informal sector took a hit, people died at snaking cashpoint queues—were worth it. Could it be, as the British are fond of saying, that it was a case of 'jam tomorrow'?
With impeccable timing, Rajan waded right into this debate. But being an economist, academic and former bureaucrat, he took a measured tone, couching potential subjects of legitimate parliamentary debate in the seven-page introduction to his book and in subsequent interviews. He spoke and wrote about RBI advice on demonetisation but only, he insisted, to clear the air because references to the matter had already been made in Parliament.
At the centre of this controversial matter is the question of whether or not the government's shock move to demonetise Rs500 and Rs1,000 notes, announced on the night of 8 November, had the approval of RBI. Following months of media speculation, finance minister Arun Jaitley told Parliament in February that consultations "at a very senior level with RBI on this issue" had begun in February 2016.
As the Press Trust of India news agency reported at the time, a lawmaker then asked Jaitley through a supplementary question whether RBI actually took the decision on its own or whether the government told it to do so. To this, Jaitley replied, "The RBI board met and independently applied its mind and made a recommendation to government."
What this recommendation was, Jaitley did not say.
As governor of RBI, Rajan's views were indeed sought back in February 2016. He says in his book that he gave his advice orally, rather than in a written document.
What was it?
"Although there might be long-term benefits, I felt the likely short-term economic costs would outweigh them, and felt there were potentially better alternatives to achieve the main goals. I made these views known in no uncertain terms."
He was then asked to write it all down in a note, which RBI put together and handed to the government. This note "outlined the potential costs and benefits of demonetisation, as well as alternatives that could achieve similar aims."
"At no point during my term was RBI asked to make a decision on demonetisation, " Rajan writes, adding: "Enough said."
Indeed. The few paragraphs devoted to this matter in his book make it abundantly clear to the outsider that India's move to demonetise high-value currencies did not have Rajan rhapsodizing over it. The stamp of approval wasn't sought, and it wasn't there.
Thankfully for economic historians, he has strewn hints all over the place and, rather helpfully, pointed to them in his book. As he said in a 2014 lecture, in reply to a question, "It (demonetisation) is often cited as a solution. Unfortunately, my sense is, the clever find ways around it... I think there are ways around demonetisation. It is not that easy to flush out the black money."
His views on demonetisation, however, remain important to any historian of India. He is after all widely respected as the economist who saw the 2008 financial crisis coming. Underlying his reticence is something else.
A glance through Rajan's stint as central banker shows that he stuck to the rules, disapproved of media leaks and was wedded to process. It is his unstated but clear emphasis on process that stands out in a country, where it remains, to put it mildly, an aspirational quality for governance.
And that, to my mind, is why governor Rajan does what he does, emphasizing the importance of process, rules and debate over innuendoes, leaks and noise.
In monetary policymaking, too, Rajan stresses three yardsticks in his book: predictability, transparency and sustainability, further marking him out as a process-driven man. (Process has its unintended positive consequences, too: for instance, it got him to time the book with perfection. "I did not want to intrude on my successor's initial engagement with the public, so I determined to stay silent for a year.")
When he was leaving India, Rajan says, the security officer who stamped his boarding card at the airport "asked me when I am coming back to work in the country". It gave him a sense of personal fulfilment, he says.
The answer to that particular question is something the Indian press would love to know, grey suit notwithstanding.

BCA Super Cup - Bridgetown, Barbados, June 8 - (www.bcacricket.org) - CounterPoint Wanderers opener Kraigg Brathwaite and Jade Padmore of Foundation scored contrasting centuries in winning causes in Series 6 of the BCA Super Cup Championship.
Brathwaite, the 26-year-old Barbados Pride and West Indies Test player, made an unbeaten 112 to become the first ever batsman to record ten hundreds in the island's top one-day Competition as Wanderers brushed aside hapless Crane Resort St. Catherine by 134 runs at Dayrells Road, while all-rounder Padmore slammed a whirlwind 100 not out to spur school team Foundation to a sensational one-wicket victory over Carlton at Church Hill.
Dropped first ball by wicket-keeper Tre Mason off left-arm spinner Damien Browne, Brathwaite got to his century off 135 balls with five fours and one six. He struck six fours and two sixes in his 148-ball knock in a total of 247 for nine after Wanderers won the toss.
Brathwaite added 70 in 10.3 overs for the fourth wicket with all-rounder Roshon Primus, who made 41 off 33 balls including six fours, and 62 in 15 overs for the seventh wicket with Kevin McClean (24).
Karrem Drakes took four for 44 off nine overs.
St. Catherine were bowled out for 113 in 39 overs.
Fast bowler Jair McAllister and leg-spinner Nikolai Charles each took four for 17, while Brathwaite, who has also been enjoying himself with the ball as an off-spinner, picked up two for 17.
Brathwaite's century was his third off St. Catherine - the most he has made against a team - in the 50-over Tournament. He scored 101 at Dayrells Road in 2013 and a career-best 142 at Bayfield in 2015.
Eight of his ten hundreds are for Wanderers and the others for Barbados Youth.
Padmore's maiden limited overs century (he has scored two hundreds for ESA Field Pickwick in the top three-day Championship) was truly special in that he featured in a memorable, unbroken last wicket partnership of 76 in just 7.5 overs with Rondre Yearwood.
Chasing 201 to win, Foundation were 127 for nine in the 25th over before Padmore, who bats left-handed and bowls right-arm pace, was given admirable support by Yearwood to complete the remarkable win.
All told, Padmore, who went to the crease at No. 4, faced 82 balls and struck nine fours and seven sixes, while Yearwood scored 12 not out off 17 deliveries.
Opener Desani Griffith made 34.
Zidane Clarke took three for 38 and Shermar Persaud, three for 54.
Carlton were bowled out for 200 in 43 overs after they were sent in.
Renaldo Ansley Holder scored 46 and all-rounder Kyle Mayers, 41.
Fast bowler Jaden Edmund grabbed five for 49, while Padmore took two for 55.
Apart from Edmund, two other bowlers managed 'five-fors'.
Experienced leg-spinner Tariq Hoyte snatched five for 20 - his second five-wicket haul in this year's Championship - as IGS Insurance Brokers Yorkshire beat struggling BDFSP by 25 runs at Friendship.
Set 222 to win, BDFSP fell for 196 in 37.4 overs.
And Spartan pacer Stefon King took five for 51 against Barbados Youth who lost by six wickets at The Lodge 'A' ground, Society.
Barbados Youth were bowled out for 195 in 48.4 overs and Spartan, guided by an unbeaten 94 off 106 balls including 11 fours by Barbados Pride captain Shamarh Brooks, triumphed in 40.5 overs.
In the other matches, Wildey crushed Pickwick by 149 runs at Foursquare Oval, title holders Sagicor Life UWI demolished Lords by nine wickets at Lowlands, Gladiola brushed aside Nicholls Baking Combermere by 167 runs at Rices and YMPC beat Police by four wickets at Weymouth.

Brokers Call For Vigilance To Help Law Firms Protect Against Harassment Incidents and Claims
As allegations against Hollywood's Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey and Westminster MPs continue to hit the headlines – putting sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour in the limelight – the legal profession needs to ensure its own house is in order and firms are suitably protected says QPI Legal…
As the festive party season gets underway celebrating law firms are being urged to know their limits to help protect staff and their liabilities as an employer.
As allegations against Hollywood's Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey and Westminster MPs continue to hit the headlines – putting sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour in the limelight – all professions need to ensure their own houses are in order and firms are suitably protected.
Publicity surrounding the recent high profile cases shines a spotlight on the need for all professions, including law firms, to recognise risks and plan appropriately to reduce any potential exposure.
QPI's call for caution comes as Law Society leaders, including president Joe Egan, vice president Christina Blacklaws and deputy vice president Simon Davis, issued a joint statement outlining how everyone has a duty to help end harassment of any kind.
What the Law Society has to say
Their statement said: "Sexual harassment is illegal. Just as anyone is protected by the law, they should also be protected by employers – law firms included – which have a duty of care to their employees, contractors, clients and visitors.
"Solicitors have professional and ethical obligations that mean anyone found guilty of harassment is likely to face disciplinary action by the regulator as well as any civil or criminal proceedings.
"Working environments should be safe for all, with clear policies to prevent harassment as well as accessible, safe procedures to deal with any complaints…. It is incumbent on all of us to work to end harassment of all kinds."
We advise law firms should be conducting a review of their Management Liability policies (MLP).
Be warned businesses, including law firms, who think they have an appropriate 'policy' in place often wrongly assume they are adequately covered.
Protect yourself against unwanted attention
We advise that whilst there's no need to put paid to the season's festivities, employers could take a number of precautions to ensure staff stay safe while protecting themselves against unwanted attention and expensive reputation ruining lawsuits.
Know your responsibilities
Firms should ensure they have clear procedures in place for dealing with sexual harassment or they could face claims of constructive or unfair dismissal from the alleged harasser or the person being harassed. The SRA may also get involved from a regulatory perspective.
A policy which clearly outlines examples of unacceptable behaviour to all employees should be established to help mitigate any inappropriate actions.
A policy of processes should be implemented that allows complaints to be dealt with swiftly so staff know sexual harassment, or harassment of any kind, will not be tolerated and what they and their employer can do if incidents arise.
The global publicity surrounding the latest high profile incidents highlight that practices need to fully understand the risks and seek appropriate advice.
Employment Practice incidents, regulatory investigation costs and general management cover is afforded under a Management Liability policy. We advise firms to talk to experienced professionals who understand Management Liability risks and can ensure they're suitably covered.
A policy will entitle you to expert legal representation in the event of an investigation or claim made against you, cover your legal costs including representation at official employment investigations, and any awards or settlements.
Don't leave it to chance.
We help firms analyse risk, audit against current policy cover and identify what's right and any areas for improvement before a problem arises.
Complex risks need intelligent solutions… this is what QPI specialise in.

This is the legendary individual who lives in social and often physical isolation and today we often refer to these people as "off the grid" as it is an optional way of life that is not necessarily associated with a cult or some religious association. You know Branch Davidian Amish only less with the crazy and the outfits.
But most are Misanthropes, people who don't like people and I fall fairly into that category. I like to have limited conversations and a laugh and then go home and watch TV and cook or read or listen to music. Anything that I find fulfills me intellectually or emotionally. And yes I read the The New York Times daily and have it delivered and peruse The Guardian and The Washington Post, both of which I pay for the privilege. I read comment pages and even comment knowing that opens the door to the hate response and in turn may elect to simply block that person or respond in a snarky manner. Twitter is where I simply pronounce, promote the blog and once in awhile talk about the current show on my TV. Politics I may comment on but more just as a rant and nothing more. It is cheaper than therapy.
As I went to my favorite coffee shop, Barista Parlor, to read my Sunday Times I realized that my once favorite section, the Opinion pages, have been relegated to the bottom of the pile of must read first. This is due to the infusion of largely Libertarian and Conservative voices they have added to lend perspective and draw readers. Guess what? Those idiots are not reading the Times regardless of Brett Stephens verbal rants and dismissive's (as that is what they are contemptuous, supercilious and punctilious (he is not the only one who can use multi syllabic words to be pretentious). He reminds me of Al Sharpton only boring.
When I found out that Barri Weiss was not just a columnist but an Editor that explained the sudden onslaught of odd columnists and writers that frankly are not that interesting to be included in said pages to the point I simply no longer even read them. I have long been dismissive of a benign but boring read - Margaret Renkyl, from here in Nashville. I am utterly mystified how this woman got a gig as an opinion writer in the beloved Times. And while I am a great advocate of reading/hearing others perspectives I go to the source - The Wall Street Journal, Fox News, The Economist. They offer both Libertarian and Conservative perspectives and if I wanted to read them regularly I would subscribe. I think Ms. Weiss is too young to be an Editor and I have no problem with her views but she is not experienced nor frankly old enough to be a name on the masthead.
So now I read the Styles pages first (which lack of course the fine photo essays of Bill Cunningham and they have found no one to really replace that iconic portion. Although oddly they have added Roxanne Gay as an advice columnist after a brief attempt at penning columns for the Opinion pages which did not surprise me did not work out. But she has lent a new voice although she is not a consistent presence, it seems that both sections are a work in progress. But yesterday they had a fascinating portrait on a Gentleman who has moved back to his home state, Ohio, and in turn chosen to have a ban on all news and information. He takes Curmudgeon and Hermit to new heights - a Curmit - although he does have interactions with others much like I do; He goes to the local coffee shop, speaks to his family and is working on restoring a lake the result of an abandoned mine.. This is the amazing part of his vision and his chosen life, to find a project that brings meaning. And that is what being a wealthy white male can do, the choice to live alone, in isolation with enough resources in which to live and in turn find a project, hobby or pursuit that requires a significant investment of both time and money.
I would love to have that choice to decide how to spend my days with no worries or no reality interfering in my daily life. It was part of the reason I moved to Nashville, I thought it would be cheaper, enable me to get my teeth fixed, try something completely out of my comfort range and in turn find and restore my confidence and find my voice. Well we got one of those and in turn led me to find Ingram Publishing so I could self publish and do so with the source right in my back yard. Now I just need to write pages versus blogs. But I think I am a person lost in anonymity in a major city versus whatever this is and that with the many choices and options available I will have more things in which to fill my spirit and my head. There is something wrong with being utterly isolated but then again I can't say it is all that bad either but I need a healthy balance and Nashville ain't it.
I urge you to read the story "The Man Who Knew Too Little" and ask yourself if this is a choice you could make? If this is the ideal life that Longfellow or Whitman waxed poetically about? And what is wrong with less is more and by less define what is less?
And on that subject of less, I was listening to BBC the other day about a woman and her deliberate pursuit of frugality and how that choice changed their way of living in more than just stuff. And here is the article about the family in The Guardian. The interviewer asked quite pointedly about race and how that those who struggle with image and the idea of looking and being 'poor' is perceived by those not white. And she said that is about style and again a type of code switching that enables you to look one way in the professional and public sense while not leading you to have to sacrifice your inevitable decision to live a life that is about having less. Ask if you could do such?
Fill your head, fill your heart and fill your spirit? How do you do it and is it filling you? Life is like a fuel tank it needs to be filled and if you are running on empty what is the fuel of your choice and is the best one or the one you need? I struggle with these questions and I am constantly seeking answers and I realize that part of what I need is information. I could not live without it. Feeding my head is my biggest demand it is just what I do with that that makes the difference.
Could I be a hermit? Yes, in the middle of New York City. Diversity and inclusion matters. I makes you informed and from that you grow. Or you can go into a hiding. Ignorance is bliss apparently when you are well enough off to make that a choice. And that is the key - choice. We all should be so fortunate. (note the root of the word fortune - that has many meanings)

im currently doing the Penetration Testing with Kali Linux (PWK) course from the awesome Offensive Security Team which also brings you the famous Kali Linux (formerly BackTrack).
(if you don't care and just want to crack password skip to the next headline!)
This post is not about PWK or the subsequent OSCP certificate, but I will just give you a brief idea what PWK is about:
PWK/OSCP is a Pentesting training with certification at the end. Basically you sign up for an online course and receive video tutorials and a pdf script to get you into the basics of hacking systems (enumeration, exploitation, post exploitation and so on).
With beginning of your course time you get an openvpn account which lets you connect to a huge network of machines that let you practice and sharpen your skills on a variety of machines and operation systems. You can connect to the lab with a Kali VM, that comes with all needed tools, in a matter of minutes.
Do not think its just the same as downloading metasploitable2 and some other vulnerable machines! It gives you much more complex setups to exploit! (I wont spoil anything here tough).
When your lab-time is over and/or you exploited all the machines in the lab (50+) you can schedule the OSCP exam and prove that you are a worthy addition to the security/pentesting community :)
This is accompanied by a really great IRC channel with great people: Other students and a bunch of admins that are always available to help and set you on the right track!
As im just in the middle of the lab time and have not taken the exam yet I will not go deeper about this topic in this post.
Let me just assure you it absolutely rocks and is worth every cent! I can say that I have learned more linux/unix knowhow than I learned in the last 2 years on my job!
Now shut up and tell me about john!
During the PWK course it has become second nature for me to obtain password hashes and cracking them (mostly with JohnTheRipper aka john).
Sadly Kali only comes with a single core threaded version of john. If you have a nice quad core cpu (like in a decent macbook for example) this means you are waiting four times longer on your clear text passwords than you need to!
Here is an easy guide how to compile the newest build of john with multi core support:
1. Go to /opt (or any other location you want to put it) and clone the git repository:
cd /opt git clone https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper.git
2. go to the src directory and edit the "Makefile" file to comment in the 2 lines for Multi-CPU support:
vi JohnTheRipper/src/Makefile
remove the # before those two lines and save the file (:wq in vi)
# gcc with OpenMP OMPFLAGS = -fopenmp # gcc with OpenMP on 32-bit x86 with SSE2 OMPFLAGS = -fopenmp -msse2
3. Build john for i686 and x64 architecture (or any other you might have):
cd JohnTheRipper/src make linux-x86-64-32-sse2
4. john will be build under ../run and now has the option – – fork=x
cd ../run ./john --fork=4 /root/loot/somehashfile.txt
Thats it! Depending on your CPU you will have 2x-$(max cores of your cpu)x times the performance cracking the password hashes you really need to get cracked :)
