Modeled after the U.S. Army Chinook, this is the remote controlled helicopter that flies easily even when a beginner is on the stick. Its exceptional stability is provided by two pairs of contra-rotating coaxial rotors that cancel the effects of angular momentum and provide gyroscopic in-air stability to keep the copter balanced during flight. Its three-channel 2.4 GHz remote provides digital proportional control of rotor speed for flights as high as 164'; trim controls provide further tuning for pitch and yaw. Faithfully depicting the iconic 1960s workhorse, its camouflage-pattern fuselage is detailed with four windows on each side and a turboshaft engine on either side of its rear rotor cowling. Its rechargeable battery provides five- to seven-minute flight times from a one-hour charge using its AC adapter. Requires four AA batteries. Ages 14 and up. 11" L x 3" W x 6 1/2" H. (3 oz.)

Roseville Fire Department Responds to Gas Leak in Downtown Roseville
Contact :
Brian Jacobson, Interim Public Information Officer 916-774-5397
The Roseville Fire Department, along with PG&E, responded to reports of a gas leak at 406 Vernon Street in Downtown Roseville around noon today, July 25th.
Upon arrival at the scene, the Roseville Fire Department detected a high level of natural gas at the entrance to the building and an even higher level inside the building. They immediately began to ventilate the building to dissipate the gas. Gas levels inside the building quickly returned to normal reducing the danger of fire or explosion. PG&E personnel then found the source of the leak and fixed it.
The Roseville Fire Department evacuated the 400 block of Vernon Street for a little more than an hour as a precaution. Traffic was also diverted around the 400 block of Vernon Street until about 1 p.m. The business at 406 Vernon Street was closed at the time and no one was inside when the leak was reported. The Roseville Police Department also assisted in the evacuations and road closures.
Nearby businesses reported the smell to PG&E, who then contacted the Roseville Fire Department. No one was hurt and the cause of the leak is undetermined as this time. Four fire engines, two fire trucks and 22 fire personnel responded to the scene.

Fox hosts Klein to push his conspiracy-laden, anti-Obama attack book
Fox News' Fox & Friends hosted WorldNetDaily writer Aaron Klein to push his latest book filled with baseless accusations and absurd conspiracy theories about the Obama administration. Klein's appearance is the latest example of his repeated attempts to level baseless attacks on the president and his administration.
Klein uses Fox & Friends appearance to push baseless Obama conspiracy theories
On Fox & Friends, Klein claimed that Obama had Communist, Socialist, Marxist ties; that Bill Ayers helped to draft health care reform legislation; and other conspiracy theories. On the May 24 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, WorldNetDaily's Aaron Klein pushed the baseless conspiracy theories from his book The Manchurian President. Klein claimed there were "extremists now who are helping to craft legislation from the outside and then those inside the White House." Klein listed White House advisor Valerie Jarret, Rahm Emanuel, Secretary Janet Napolitano, and David Axelrod who he claimed had "actual communist mentors." Klein baselessly claimed the Apollo Alliance "helped craft the stimulus bill" and suggested that Bill Ayers helped to draft health care reform. Klein also described Obama's "college years" as "mysterious" and baselessly claimed that in the '90s Obama "was a member" of the "Socialist" New Party.
Klein's book is full of falsehoods, birtherism, and conspiracy theories
Klein pushes birther arguments on Obama's "eligibility" to be President. While in his book Klein concedes [1] that there is "no convincing evidence that Obama was born in Kenya, nor that his birthplace was any place other than Hawaii, his declared state of birth," he claims that because Obama's father was not a U.S. citizen, there should have been "congressional debate about whether Obama is eligible under the United States Constitution to serve as president." Klein goes on to examine the meaning of the term "natural born citizen" as a qualification to be president, referencing the 1758 book The Law of Nations and Supreme Court decisions such as Minor v. Happersett, concluding under that and "scores of other Supreme Court rulings, Obama may not be eligible to serve as president." As Media Matters has noted [2], The Law of Nations and the Minor decision have been referenced by attorneys who have filed lawsuits questioning Obama's eligibility to be president. Klein also ignored any legal rulings or views of legal experts contradicting the view that Obama "may not be eligible to serve as president."
Klein promoted absurd theory that William Ayers "may have ghostwritten" Obama book. Klein wrote a section titled "Did Ayers ghostwrite Obama's 'best-written' memoir?" in which he claimed that "Weather Underground terrorist" Bill Ayers "may have ghostwritten most of" Obama's 1995 autobiography Dreams From My Father. Klein's claim is undermined by an Oxford don who, after conducting a computer analysis comparing the book to Ayers' Fugitive Days found the claim [3] to be "very implausible," and further wrote [4] that an analysis to the contrary "seem[s] badly flawed."
Klein suggested that Ayers was "involved in the selection of Obama" to CAC board. Klein dismissed a statement by the Obama campaign that Ayers was not involved in recruiting Obama to the board of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), by repeating National Review Online's Stanley Kurtz's claim that "[n]o one would have been appointed the CAC chairman without his [Ayers'] approval." In fact, the New York Times reported [5] that "according to several people," Ayer's "played no role" in Obama's appointment.
Klein portrays Obama's allegedly seeking endorsement from "socialist party" as "participation with" party. In the chapter "Obama Participated in Socialist Party," Klein writes of Obama's alleged "participation with a U.S. socialist party," the New Party, which Klein claims had an agenda "of moving the Democratic Party far leftward to ultimately form a third major U.S. political party with a socialist agenda" [page 80]. The only evidence Klein provided is that Obama "sought and received the party's endorsement when he successfully ran for the Illinois State Senate in 1996" and that some pieces of contemporaneous party literature called Obama a member [page 84]. Klein's claim is undermined by a denial from both the party founder, and Klein's assertion that Obama "sought and received the party's endorsement" is contradicted by Obama's Fight the Smears website, which states [6] that "The New Party did support Barack once in 1996, but he was the only candidate on the ballot in his race and never solicited the endorsement." Klein does not acknowledge this statement in his book.
Klein preposterously claims Obama was "Tied to Bill Ayers ... At Age 11." In the first chapter of the book, titled "Obama Tied to Bill Ayers ... At Age 11!" Klein claims that Obama received his "earliest exposure to Ayers' ideology" through the First Unitarian Church of Honolulu, where Obama attended Sunday school. Klein offers no direct evidence that Obama was "expos[ed] to Ayers' ideology"; instead, he portrays the church as a "hotbed of antiwar activism" for granting sanctuary to "U.S. military deserters recruited by" Students for a Democratic Society, a group in which Ayers served as a leader. But Klein also reported that SDS had splintered apart well before 1971 -- when Obama was age 11 and supposedly receiving "Ayers' ideology" [pages 4-5].
Klein baselessly ties Jarrett to views of her father-in-law. Klein writes of Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett: "Jarrett's background, her family, and her initial introduction to Obama all tie her to the now familiar radical milieu of this administration" [page 156]. Klein then describes Jarrett's father-in-law, Vernon Jarrett, whom Klein describes has having been linked to a "Communist Party-dominated organization," "the communist-influenced, black-run Chicago Defender newspaper" and to former Chicago Mayor Harold Washington, who "was involved in communist-dominated circles in Chicago." Klein provides no evidence that Valerie Jarrett shares "communist" views -- or any other views -- with her father-in-law.
Klein has a history of making false and baseless accusations about the Obama administration
Klein has consistently promoted false and baseless conspiracy theories. As Media Matters has extensively documented, Klein has a history of making conspiratorial accusations toward the president and his administration, including that they [7] "encouraged 'resistance' by Palestinians to protest Israel's presence in eastern Jerusalem," that Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan supports flag-burning [8], that [9] Obama is trying to "bring down the U.S. capitalist system," and other [10] ludicrous attacks.

Best Of :: Food & Drink
Never underestimate chicken-fried steak. It may seem like a humble dish, but it is a humble dish that is taken very seriously by native Texans. Elouise Cooper, owner of Ouisie's Table, takes chicken-fried steak very seriously. The golden-brown, Southern-fried crust is so perfect that the cream gravy is served on the side with the mashed potatoes, the mustard greens and the custardy corn pudding. Your task is to pour the gravy at just the right instant. If you wait too long, the meat is not hot enough anymore; pour too early and you either burn your mouth or sit in frustration while that awesome crust goes soggy. Or here's a better idea: Cut off a piece of battered steak, put a little mashed potato and greens on it and then dip the whole thing into the gravy boat. Now savor it slowly -- Ouisie's chicken-fried steak in among the best in the state.
Zimm's has been a wine bar; it's been a coffee-and-wine bar; it's been all but burned out in a fire last year; and it's been flooded by Tropical Storm Allison. Still, it endures, and it makes a damn good martini. The drinks are helped by the seductive ambience of the place -- dark and agreeably louche, with not-too-loud music, which one staffer describes accurately as "always calm and sexual and jazzy." The crowds on the weekends can get a little too pretentious for some tastes, but the weeknight vibe is more amenable and the martinis are just as good.
These sublime concoctions are undoubtedly best enjoyed alfresco, and to do so there is no place better than the Guatemalan/Mexican surf-and-turf, El Pueblito Place. First, there's the marg itself, which is tartly delicious as any in town and comes in large, extra large, and call-a-cab sizes. Then there are the cabana-comes-to-Montrose surroundings of the restaurant's new back patio, in which riots of pastel shades delight human eyes, and hanging plastic bags full of water bamboozle those of the flies. Accompanied by the restaurant's legendary pineapple salsa (or its severely underrated red companion) and the relatively cool breezes of the Gulf Coast evening, the El Pueblito Place alfresco margarita experience is not to be missed.
Houston's unique brand of spontaneous fusion is in full flower on Telephone Road. Formerly home to the white middle class, now part Asian and part Hispanic, Telephone crosses all the lines. Shipway began its life as a run-of-the-mill doughnut shop, and then it was purchased by a Hispanic family who expanded the place. So now the glass cases are filled with the usual chocolate-frosted and plain-cake doughnuts, along with brightly colored Mexican pastries. There's also a full menu of Mexican breakfast items like bacon-and-egg tacos, chorizo and egg plates. You can also order a tres leches cake for your kid's birthday party. And if that's not enough of a selection, Shipway also sells some of the best homemade pork or chicken tamales in the city on Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings. A hot foil package containing a dozen tamales sells for $5. Better get two: one to eat on the spot, slathered with hot sauce, and one to take home for the family.
Old-timers remember the era when Sunday afternoons meant post-church meals where anything but fried chicken would constitute outright heresy. Now the special repast is almost strictly the domain of fast-food joints. Fox Diner pays due homage to the heritage of fried chicken on Sunday. While the cooks of past eras never would have dreamed of coating the chicken in corn flakes, they'd be more than a little pleased at how this place does it with spectacular results -- the crust is properly crunchy and tasty. And the chicken itself stays oh-so-moist and flavorful. Have faith. This is one Fox you want in the henhouse.
When we say plantains, we aren't talking about those crunchy chips you find in a bag of trail mix. No, we're talking plantains here, the ones you peel and fry up in a pan. Most restaurants will serve up slabs of fruit from plantain purgatory, soft and pretty yellow on the outside, with a stiff, flavorless center. But Cafe Piquet is a place that understands Caribbean cooking. The tostones, fried when the fruit is still green, are thick and dry, and add the right touch to certain dishes. But the maduros are what keep us coming back. Sweet and gooey, they almost glisten as they drip off the fork. They aren't much to look at, with none of the pretty cinnamon sprinkles or frilly garnish. They're misshapen, blackened lumps that leave it to your taste buds to be the final jury. But don't let the discoloration scare you -- that's proof that this place knows the one secret to serving up good soft plantains: Pick 'em when they're ripe.

The Ashes is regularly described as "one of the oldest rivalries in sport" – a phrase to get the blood running for English and Australian cricket fans as the latest series gets under way. But could the competitive edge that makes the Test matches so exciting lead to unethical behaviour on and off the field? It seems so.
Academics exploring the difference between healthy competition and sometimes unhealthy rivalry suggest that the latter is "associated with increased Machiavellianism, over-reporting of performance, willingness to employ unethical negotiation tactics, and unsportsmanlike behavior". Read more

"Made this salad for a buffet birthday party. Doubled the recipe for 50 people, and it was just the right amount. Rave reviews on it, and requests for recipe! The toasted almonds and ramen noodles compliment the soft texture of the crab. One note is that it does not keep well for left overs as the lettuce greens wilt overnight. Eat it all at one meal, and it is wonderful."

Instead of taking his wife's advice and going on "Hoarders," Bill Koch decided to build his own town to store his Western memorabilia—because that's what billionaires do.
A passionate collector of art and wine, Koch shared his artifacts and art at the exhibition "Recapturing the West: The Collection of William I. Koch." The collection was housed at The Society of the Four Arts in Palm Beach, Fla. When asked where the collection would go after the exhibit closed in April, Koch said to a Fine Art Notebook reporter: "I shouldn't tell you this, but I am building my own Western town in Colorado."
A private town, that is. The Denver Post's Nancy Lofholm reports:
It sits on a 420-acre meadow on his Bear Ranch below the Raggeds Wilderness Area in Gunnison County. It's an unpopulated, faux Western town that might boggle the mind of anyone who ever had a playhouse. Koch's project manager has told county officials that the enclave in the middle of the 6,400-acre Bear Ranch won't ever be open to the public. It is simply for Koch's amusement and for that of his family and friends — and historians.
Lofholm quotes the chairman of the Gunnison County Planning Commission, "It's the kind of stuff I guess you would expect a billionaire to construct. It's like something out of a 'Gunsmoke' movie set."
Some 50 buildings comprise the town, including a saloon, a church, a jail, a train station, and Koch's estimated 21,000-square-foot mansion. The house will be the largest in Gunnison County, Lofholm says.
The eccentric billionaire is sometimes referred to as "Wild Bill," for his love of Western culture, which he attributes to working on his father's farm as a young boy. Living in the shadow of his media-darling twin brother David also earned him the nickname the "other" Koch. This latest endeavor into the Wild West will surely earn Bill a new nickname or two—and his own place on the map.

Pet owners warned about Chagas disease
A tiny bug is causing big problems for San Antonio dogs.
Local vets are reporting a spike in Chagas disease. It's a tiny parasite that's transmitted by the kissing bug.
(photo courtesy of the SA Humane Society)
"Because dogs like to eat bug, they go 'Hey! That looks good!' and swallow it and that's how they get contaminated," says Dr. Courtney Bridgeman at the Human Society.
The disease is more prevalent in South America, where it causes death in humans. Here, she says, it's only a problem in pets... and the warning signs are tricky to spot.
"A sudden decrease in your pets activity level. If they suddenly get a large belly, it's a symptom of heart failure."
Unfortunately, she says there is no cure for Chagas disease. They're asking pet owners to try and keep their dogs inside or, if their dog house is outside, put it up off the ground so it's harder for them to see the bugs.

Mark Krikorian digs deeper
The really striking thing about Mark Krikorian's bizarre [1] screeds [2] about Sonia Sotomayor's name isn't that Krikorian can't be bothered to learn how Sotomayor pronounces her name. Krikorian knows how she pronounces it. And it isn't that he refuses to make a little effort to pronounce her name the way she does. It's that he doesn't want anyone else to do so, either.
That's really a huge difference. Most people mispronounce names from time to time. But most people don't petulantly insist that everyone mispronounce names that sound "unnatural" to us. That's what Krikorian is doing.
And he comes right out and admits [2] that annoyance at having to hear correctly-pronounced names is at the basis of his opposition to immigration and bilingual education:
here's what I was trying to get across: While in the past there may well have been too much social pressure for what sociologists call Anglo-conformity, now there isn't enough. I think that's a concern that most Americans share at some level, which is the root of the angst over excessive immigration, bilingual education, official English, etc.

In addition to purchasing new science fiction titles, I think it's important to ensure that we have some of the classics available. Fortunately the publishing trade loves reprints, so it's possible to fill in gaps and replace worn books from great series such as Isaac Asimov's Foundation. We currently have the seven Asimov Foundation novels for you to re-read or perhaps to enjoy for the first time.
For those who've been following the ongoing travails of Luke Skywalker and the Jedi, we have book 8, the penultimate in the series, available now. Will Luke and his son Ben defeat the evil Abeloth? Will the Galactic Alliance collapse into yet another civil war? What about the lost tribe of the Sith? Will Ben tempt the alluring, yet evil Vestara Khai to the light side of the force? Will they get married and make Luke a grandpa? Will the Star Wars universe chug merrily on forever? Who knows, but you might find out a little bit more when you read:

Game Warden, Joe Pickett faces corruption from his colleague and former Supervisor that greatly affects the safety, welfare and health of his family. Murders occur. Energy companies are involved. The common theme of "so-called" good vs. evil takes place.
The issue of environment vs energy is not resolved in this novel.
The story is often told in third person. The author talks about the personalities of his characters, their backgrounds, work histories, past and current relationships, and their community reputations. For example, Joe Pickett had worked with Wacey Hedeman, another Game Warden, on numerous projects and investigations together - built hay fences, shared horses, snow machines, traded notes, and called on each other for help. The characters are well developed. I felt I got to know a number of the characters as "real" people.
The author relates why characters have certain likes and dislikes based on their life experiences. For example, Joe does not like hospitals or nurses because he felt that they had lied to him about the causes of his mother's injuries when he was six years old.
The chapters were brief and fast paced, full of character description, plot telling, action and emotional character responses.
The author does a nice job of summarizing the resulting outcomes of the main characters and the status of any outstanding issues raised. The reader is not left hanging with very many loose ends at the novel's close.
I would recommend this novel to teens and adults who enjoy action, mysteries and the exploring of issues with competing interests.
Since Open Season is currently the first in a twelve novel series the reader may look forward to continue reading about the adventures and life of Joe Pickett, Game Warden. The author includes a preview of Savage Run the next Joe Pickett novel in this series at the end.- MA

Jack Johnson replaces Mumford & Sons at Bonnaroo
Listen to Jack Johnson on iHeartRadio | Listen to Mumford & Sons on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - It seemed, perhaps, overly optimistic when Mumford & Sons said they would be able to play the June 15 headline slot at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival just four days after announcing that their bassist Ted Dwayne was receiving treatment for a blood clot on his brain.
While Dwayne has been discharged from the hospital, he will not be able to play at Bonnaroo in Manchester, Tennessee after all. The band has canceled its appearance, and organizers have filled the slot with Jack Johnson.
"I called my band and asked if they were up for it," Johnson said in a statement. "Long story short — they are headed this way. I've got a lot of lyrics and chords to re-learn by Saturday night.
"I was here to play the first Bonnaroo, and it is a very special festival to my band," he added. "We are excited to hit the stage again. Get well Ted."
Johnson last headlined Bonnaroo in 2008. He was already scheduled to be in Manchester for a small secret press show to promote his new album From Here to Now To You, which comes out in September, so he was able to adjust his schedule.
Mumford & Sons originally canceled just three shows – Dallas; Woodlands, Texas; and New Orleans – but the London-based folk rock outfit ultimately decided to cancel the rest of their tour, including the Telluride Festival in Colorado on June 21 and at the Cricket Wireless Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, Kansas on June 17. The band plans to resume its tour June 30 at the Glastonbury Festival in Pilton, UK.

I don't know how common of a problem this is, but I really think my husband has a video game addiction. He's had issues with it before, and then I'd freak out and he'd stop for ahile (of course, blaming me, "I had to stop playing video games because of you.") and it hasn't happened in a couple years,,,, but now, he has this new starcraft video game (that we didn't really have the money for, and he put it on his credit card... yet I get lectured for putting things like gas and food on mine on the rare occasions I do...)
He seems to have a skewed perception of time. He'll be playing his game in the bedroom on his computer for two hours and come out claming it was only twenty minutes... Then he'll play for four hours and claim he was only in there an hour.
Yesterday, I had my son in the highchair with his lunch while I was cleaning up the bathroom since I had a client (i'm a birth doula) coming over. Anyways, I had chemicals and yuckiness on my hands, so I yelled into the bedroom asking my husband to get Danny some more food. He says "I will in a minute..." I continue scrubbing the bathroom, getting the counters wiped down with cleaner and getting the gunk out of the crack between the tub and the floor, and starting a load of laundry after cleaning diapers (we cloth diaper) and I go out into the kitchen and my son still dosen't have more food and it's been fifteen minutes. I wash my hands and get him the food myself, then go back to my cleaning. Another fifteen minutes AFTER I get Danny more food, my husband comes out and complains "He already has food. You don't need to give him more if he has some!" Then I got pissed. He had food because I stopped my cleaning and got it for him while he fucked around on his stupid video game. He then tries to justify it by saying "I was in a game with other people! I can't just get up and leave!" Umm... yeah you can. Your son needed something and mommy's hands were covered in nastiness.
Then today, I was working on typing up some handouts for my childbirth educator certification. I've been developing lesson plans, and building a library of resources on a great deal of topics that may pertain to pregnant women. Today, I was working on a paper on pharmaceutical pain relief measures in labor. Maddi was asking for juice and I asked my husband to get it for her since I was in the middle of figuring out how to do an MLA citation of a pamphlet and he was just playing that game, and he gets all pissy with me about how I "need to reprioritize my life" and that my papers shouldn't come before my children... when for the last month or two, he has been hounding and nagging me to work on them so i can apply for my certification?! It's not like I enjoy writing a million papers. Does he think I'm really just having a blast explaining the various theories behind pain? But seriously?! What kind of nerve is that? I was working on something EDUCATIONAL, and not necessarily something I enjoy... Yet I'm the bad guy?! He was playing a fucking game!
I'm getting sick of it. I'm tempted to snap the disc in half or hide it and act like I don't know where it went... but then I found out that you don't need the disc so I'd have to uninstall it from his computer and his douchebag brother told me he's got more than several copies he'd be happy to share with my husband if I did that.
Seriously? WTF can I do?

I would also like to add: most of us know that Knoppix distros do work with persistent changes without creating any second partitions (pendrivelinux.com). Looking at the configuration of one of them, the following exists: an "mcnlive.loop" file (which acts as a loop device for saving changes), syslinux.cfg file (which has in the boot line, apend ... ... persist fromusb). Am not sure why it should not be possible to do the same with backtrack.
Am also working on booting Backtrack 3 from Windows without having to reboot it (just like many cases in perndrivelinux.com). So far, it actually works with me, its just that when KDE starts, the screen gets way too big and BT never actually succeeds to load it up. I dont think this is a majot issue, I will play around with the configs of Qemu and/or BT boot options. If anyone is interested on a mini tutorial on how to boot BT from Windows without a reboot, please let me know, I will come up with something nice and easy to follow (once I figure it out 100%.)
More testings under way.

SENECAVILLE, Ohio (AP) -- An eastern Ohio sheriff's office says a 55-year-old man found dead on a frozen lake apparently died of hypothermia after he set out on an evening walk in extremely cold weather.
The sheriff's office in Guernsey County says investigators learned the man left for a walk around 5 p.m. Monday, and his brother went looking for him when he didn't return. Authorities say the man was found unresponsive on frozen Seneca Lake more than six hours after he initially left.
Much of Ohio had very cold temperatures at the time, with wind chills far below zero.
Authorities say a coroner was notified, but there was no trauma to the man's body and no foul play is suspected.
A statement from the sheriff's office didn't identify the man.

Dear Sheriff Smith,
As we were driving through Chiefland on Feb. 19, around 2:30 p.m., we experienced a blowout on our right front tire. Well, you can imagine our concern driving from Wisconsin (Packer country) to Orlando with not only our luggage but our children's luggage, as well. Just think about the unpacking of the trunk, alone.

|Summary: ISC DHCP Client
This is an alternative DHCP client, the ISC DHCP client for Linux. Like "dhcpcd" (the client that is installed by default), it can be used to configure the network setup. IP address, hostname, routing, nameserver, netmask, and broadcast can be dynamically assigned while booting the machine. It is configurable via the configuration file /etc/dhclient.conf and you can define your own 'hooks' to be used by the /sbin/dhclient-script (which is called by the daemon). Authors: -------- Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. <email@example.com>
* Wed Jul 25 2012 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to ISC dhcp-4.2.4-P1 release, providing following security fixes (bnc#772924): - Previously the server code was relaxed to allow packets with zero length client ids to be processed. Under some situations use of zero length client ids can cause the server to go into an infinite loop. As such ids are not valid according to RFC 2132 section 9.14 the server no longer accepts them. Client ids with a length of 1 are also invalid but the server still accepts them in order to minimize disruption. The restriction will likely be tightened in the future to disallow ids with a length of 1. Thanks to Markus Hietava of Codenomicon CROSS project for the finding this issue and CERT-FI for vulnerability coordination. [ISC-Bugs #29851] CVE: CVE-2012-3571 - When attempting to convert a DUID from a client id option into a hardware address handle unexpected client ids properly. Thanks to Markus Hietava of Codenomicon CROSS project for the finding this issue and CERT-FI for vulnerability coordination. [ISC-Bugs #29852] CVE: CVE-2012-3570 - A pair of memory leaks were found and fixed. Thanks to Glen Eustace of Massey University, New Zealand for finding this issue. [ISC-Bugs #30024] CVE: CVE-2012-3954 - Moved lease file check to a separate action so it is not used in restart -- it can fail when the daemon rewrites the lease causing a restart failure then (bnc#762108 regression). - Request dhcp6.sntp-servers in /etc/dhclient6.conf and forward to netconfig for processing (bnc#770236). - Removed RFC 4833 TZ options from client requests [unused]. * Tue Jun 19 2012 firstname.lastname@example.com - Update to ISC dhcp-4.2.4 release, fixing a dhcpv6 server assert crash while accessing lease on heap (bnc#767661) and providing the following fixes: - Rotate the lease file when running in v6 mode. Thanks to Christoph Moench-Tegeder at Astaro for the report and the first version of the patch. [ISC-Bugs #24887] - Fixed the code that checks if an address the server is planning to hand out is in a reserved range. This would appear as the server being out of addresses in pools with particular ranges. [ISC-Bugs #26498] - In the DDNS code handle error conditions more gracefully and add more logging code. The major change is to handle unexpected cancel events from the DNS client code. [ISC-Bugs #26287] - Tidy up the receive calls and eliminate the need for found_pkt. [ISC-Bugs #25066] - Add support for Infiniband over sockets to the server and relay code. We've tested this on Solaris and hope to expand support for Infiniband in the future. This patch also corrects some issues we found in the socket code. [ISC-Bugs #24245] - Add a compile time check for the presence of the noreturn attribute and use it for log_fatal if it's available. This will help code checking programs to eliminate false positives. [ISC-Bugs #27539] - Fixed many compilation problems ("set, but not used" warnings) for gcc 4.6 that may affect Ubuntu 11.10 users. [ISC-Bugs #27588] - Modify the code that determines if an outstanding DDNS request should be cancelled. This patch results in cancelling the outstanding request less often. It fixes the problem caused by a client doing a release where the TXT and PTR records weren't removed from the DNS. [ISC-BUGS #27858] - Use offsetof() instead of sizeof() to get the sizes for dhcpv6_relay_packet and dhcpv6_packet in several more places. Thanks to a report from Bruno Verstuyft and Vincent Demaertelaere of Excentis. [ISC-Bugs #27941] - Remove outdated note in the description of the bootp keyword about the option not satisfying the requirement of failover peers for denying dynamic bootp clients. [ISC-bugs #28574] - Multiple items to clean up IPv6 address processing. When processing an IA that we've seen check to see if the addresses are usable (not in use by somebody else) before handing it out. When reading in leases from the file discard expired addresses. When picking an address for a client include the IA ID in addition to the client ID to generally pick different addresses for different IAs. [ISC-Bugs #23138] [ISC-Bugs #27945] [ISC-Bugs #25586] [ISC-Bugs #27684] - Remove unnecessary checks in the lease query code and clean up several compiler issues (some dereferences of NULL and treating an int as a boolean). [ISC-Bugs #26203] - Fix the NA and PD allocation code to handle the case where a client provides a preference and the server doesn't have any addresses or prefixes available. Previoulsy the server ignored the request with this patch it replies with a NoAddrsAvail or NoPrefixAvail response. By default the code performs according to the errata of August 2010 for RFC 3315 section 17.2.2; to enable the previous style see the section on RFC3315_PRE_ERRATA_2010_08 in includes/site.h. This option may be removed in the future. Thanks to Jiri Popelka at Red Hat for the patch. [ISC-Bugs #22676] - Fix up some issues found by static analysis. A potential memory leak and NULL dereference in omapi. The use of a boolean test instead of a bitwise test in dst. [ISC-Bugs #28941] - Replaced our patches with a complete and upstream verified patch: - Fix some issues in the code for parsing and printing options. [ISC-Bugs #27314] - properly parse a zero length option from a lease file. [ISC-Bugs #22796] - properly determine if we parsed a 16 or 32 bit value in evaluate_numeric_expression (extract-int). [ISC-Bugs #22625] - properly print options that have several fields followed by an array of something for example "fIa" [ISC-Bugs #27289] - properly parse options in declarations that have several fields followed by an array of something for example "fIa" This patch obsoletes the following (bnc#739696) patches: - dhclient: parse_option_param: Bad format a - zero-length option lease parse error in dhclient6 - Merged ldap and options check patches for the new version - Fixed dhcp-server init script to check syntax and fail while force-reload and restart to avoid stopping of running daemon followed by start failure (bnc#762108). Added libgcc_s.so to chroot, so the server can report assert/crash line. * Wed Mar 28 2012 firstname.lastname@example.com - Added RFC 4833 TimeZone PosixString and Name declarations to server and client configs [not used yet]. * Mon Mar 19 2012 firstname.lastname@example.com - dhcp-server: fixed to escape all values used in constructed ldap filters as a DN may contain e.g. asterisks (bnc#721829, [ISC-Bugs #28545]). * Fri Jan 13 2012 firstname.lastname@example.com - Updated to ISC dhcp-4.2.3-P2 release, providing a DDNS security fix: Modify the DDNS handling code. In a previous patch we added logging code to the DDNS handling. This code included a bug that caused it to attempt to dereference a NULL pointer and eventually segfault. While reviewing the code as we addressed this problem, we determined that some of the updates to the lease structures would not work as planned since the structures being updated were in the process of being freed: these updates were removed. In addition we removed an incorrect call to the DDNS removal function that could cause a failure during the removal of DDNS information from the DNS server. Thanks to Jasper Jongmans for reporting this issue. ([ISC-Bugs #27078], CVE: CVE-2011-4868, bnc#741239) - Fixed close-on-exec patch to not set it on stderr (bnc#732910) - Fixed incorrect "a" array type option parsing causing to discard e.g. classless static routes from lease file [reported as ISC-Bug 27289] and zero-length option parsing such as dhcp6.rapid-commit in dhclient6 [reported as ISC-Bug 27314] (bnc#739696). - Fixed dhclient to include its pid number in syslog messages. - Fixed to use P2 in the spec version, not in the release tag. * Fri Dec 09 2011 email@example.com - Updated to ISC dhcp-4.2.3-P1 release, providing security fix for a DoS due to processing certain regular expressions (bnc#735610) and several important DDNS related fixes: * Add a check for a null pointer before calling the regexec function. Without out this check we could, under some circumstances, pass a null pointer to the regexec function causing it to segfault. Thanks to a report from BlueCat Networks. [ISC-Bugs #26704] CVE-2011-4539. * Fix the code that checks for an existing DDNS transaction to cancel when removing DDNS information, so that we will continue with the processing if we have a lease even if it doesn't have an outstanding transaction.

Dynamic prefixes specifically allocated in shared networks also now are not offered if the client has moved. [ISC-Bugs #21152] * Accept a client id of length 0 while hashing. Previously the server would exit if it attempted to hash a zero length client id, providing attackers with a simple denial of service attack.

The programs act in DHCPv6 mode, when the -6 start option is set. We install separate init scripts with a 6 at the end to handle them, that is /etc/init.d/dhcpd6 and dhrelay6. Further, there is also a link to the binaries with a 6 at the end, e.g. dhclient6, making it visible, that the installed version supports DHCPv6. - Moved additional documentation to a separate dhcp-doc package. - Changed to provide config files and scripts as source files instead of patches to the ISC scripts. - Adopted spec file and config/scripts, merged in all patches. - Implemented RFC 3442 classless static routes support in the dhclient-script (bnc#555870). * Thu Apr 29 2010 email@example.com - Updated to ISC DHCP 3.1-ESV, an extended support version release which includes a small number of bug fixes (bnc#592178) over the 3.1.3 version: * Modified the handling of a connection to avoid releasing the omapi io object for the connection while it is still in use. One symptom from this error was a segfault when a failover secondary attempted to connect to the failover primary if their clocks were not synchronized. * Fix test in dhcp_interface_signal_handler to check that the inner handler has a signal_handler before calling it. * When using 'ignore client-updates;', the FQDN returned to the client is no longer truncated to one octet. * Clean up some compiler warnings - ticket 19054. - Fixed vlan interface check in dhcpd-restart-hook if-up.d script (bnc#599702) - Touch dhclient.leases in post-install script instead to provide an empty file, versioned provides/obsoletes (rpmlint warnings). * Fri Mar 12 2010 email@example.com - Fixed dhclient-script to call ifup -o dhcp and signal "complete" to ifup when all configuration is done (bnc#585380,bnc#518219). * Thu Jan 07 2010 email@example.com - Enable parallel building - Use large PIE model on all SPARC flavors * Mon Dec 14 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Fixed dhclient-script to use correct sysconfig run dir path to not to break the defaultroute/hostname setup (bnc#555095). - Don't request any specific lease-time by default (bnc#516459). * Fri Oct 16 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Fixed dhclient-script to forward new_domain_search as DNSSEARCH to netconfig. * Tue Oct 13 2009 email@example.com - Updated to dhcp-3.1.3 maintenance release fixing several issues (a digest, see RELNOTES for the complete list): * Remove infinite loop in token_print_indent_concat(). * A parser bug was fixed that segfaulted if site-option-space was tried to be used interchangeably with vendor-option-space. * Two uninitialized stack structures are now memset to zero, thanks to patch from David Cantrell at Red Hat. * Memory leak in the load_balance_mine() function is fixed. This would leak ~20-30 octets per DHCPDISCOVER packet while failover was in use and in normal state. * Fixed setting hostname in Linux hosts that require hostname argument to be double-quoted. Also allow server-provided hostname to override hostnames 'localhost' and '(none)'. * Added client support for setting interface MTU and metric, thanks to Roy "UberLord" Marples <email@example.com>. * Fixed failover reconnection retry code to continue to retry to reconnect rather than restarting the listener. * Fixed a bug where an OMAPI socket disconnection message would not result in scheduling a failover reconnection, if the link had not negotiated a failover connect yet (e.g.: connection refused, asynch socket connect() timeouts). * Versions 3.0.x syntax with multiple name->code option definitions is now supported. Note that, similarly to 3.0.x, for by-code lookups only the last option definition is used. * Fixed a fenceposting bug when a client had two host records configured, one using 'uid' and the other using 'hardware ethernet'. CVE-2009-1892 - Updated to dhcp-3.1.3-ldap-patch-mt-01 including previous fixes. - Merged dhclient script, removed obsolete CVE-2009-1892 fix. * Tue Sep 29 2009 firstname.lastname@example.com - Replaced mt-02 ldap patch from old git repository with equivalent one (dhcp-3.1.2p1-ldap-patch-mt-02) from a new repository with fixed patch history (http://www.suse.de/~mt/git/dhcp-ldap.git/). * Wed Aug 12 2009 email@example.com - Added dhcpd-restart-hook if-up.d script that restarts dhcp server while network restart when a virtual interfaces as bridge, bond or vlan goes up again (bnc#517810). * Wed Jul 29 2009 email@example.com - Applied fix for a dhcp client id DoS (CVE-2009-1892, bnc#519413). * Wed Jul 29 2009 email@example.com - Updated to dhcp-3.1.2p1 maintenance release fixing following issues: * A stack overflow vulnerability was fixed in dhclient that could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root on the system, or simply terminate the client, by providing an over-long subnet-mask option. * A double-dereference in dhclient transmission of DHCPDECLINEs was repaired. * Fix handling of -A and -a flags in dhcrelay; it was failing to expand packet size as needed to add relay agent options. * Corrected list of failover state values in dhcpd man page. * Fixed a bug that caused some request types to be logged incorrectly. * Fixed a coredump when adding a class via OMAPI. * Clients that sent a parameter request list containing the routers option before the subnet mask option were receiving only the latter. Fixed. * The server wasn't always sending the FQDN option when it should. * A partner-down failover server no longer emits 'peer holds all free leases' if it is able to newly-allocate one of the peer's leases. * A cosmetic bug in DHCPDECLINE processing was fixed which caused all successful DHCPDECLINEs to be logged as "not found" rather than "abandoned". * Some failover debugging #defines have been better defined and some high frequency messages moved to a deeper debugging symbol. * The CLTT parameter in failover is now only updated by client activity, and not by failover binding updates. * Failover BNDUPD messages are now discarded if they conflict with an update that has been trasnmitted, but not acknowledged. * A bug cleaning up unknown-xxx temporary option definitions was fixed. - Removed obsolete dhclient-no-dereference-twice patch - Improved dhclient-script to apply global dhcp settings, when there is no interface config (bnc#480922). - Enabled casa support in dhcp-ldap for >= sles 10 and => 11.1. - Updated dhcp-3.1.2p1-ldap-patch-mt.11.2-02 merging all patches flying around -- see http://www.suse.de/~mt/git/dhcp-ldap.git and the git changelog at the begin of the patch.

Berkeley presented Façade, an image-based modeling and
rendering system for creating photoreal virtual cinematography
of architectural scenes from photographs. Using Façade,
he led the creation of a photoreal animation of the Berkeley
campus for his 1997 film The Campanile Movie, whose techniques
were later used to create virtual backgrounds for the The Matrix.
He went on to demonstrate new image-based lighting techniques
in his animations Rendering with Natural Light, Fiat Lux, and
The Parthenon.
Paul led the design of HDR Shop, the first widely used high
dynamic range image editing program and co-authored the recent

Hello community
I have previously been successful running VMWare 7.13 BT4R2 on a XP host with my AWUS036NH. As of now I am currently setting up my new laptop running Win 7, and VMWare runs with no issues, however when trying to connect the Ralink USB Device (a AWUS036NH) inside the BT4R2 VM I get the following error:
The connection for the USB device "Ralink USB Device" was unsuccessful. Driver Error
It was running fine on the other machine (Win XP) and could connect to the VM and crack some AP's. However it just won't connect to the VM.
I have run apt-get update/upgrade and firmware-ralink.
Any ideas?
Any input would be much appreciated!
UPDATE* Reinstalled VMWare and tested different USB-ports, seems to be working now!

There are all sorts of "depressions" from biologically, inherited endogenous ones to ones created by real life experiences. Depression relates to loss. Anxiety relates to "fear of loss," When these feeling co-exist it is the greatest sense of misery and agitated anguish. I often focus on "depression" which comes as a result of living a life that is not "one's own" choice, but was designed to comply with and accomodate to the agenda of someone else: often a parent or a spouse. This happens a lot with gifted children who spontaneously flourish in areas coveted by their parents but that have no relation to their true selves and ambitions.

What is Hepatitis A?
Hepatitis A is a liver disease caused by the hepatitis A virus which is found in the stool (bowel movement) of an infected person. It rarely causes long-term damage or death.
How is it spread?
Hepatitis A virus is spread from person to person by putting something in the mouth that has been contaminated with the stool of a person with hepatitis A. This type of transmission is called "fecal-oral." For this reason, the virus is more easily spread in areas where there are poor sanitary conditions or where good personal hygiene is not observed.
Most infections result from contact with a household member or sex partner who has hepatitis A. Casual contact, as in the usual office, factory, or school setting, does not spread the virus.
What are the symptoms?
Persons with hepatitis A virus infection may not have any signs or symptoms of the disease. Older persons are more likely to have symptoms than children. If symptoms are present, they usually occur abruptly and may include:
Symptoms usually last less than 2 months; a few persons are ill for as long as 6 months. The average incubation period for hepatitis A is 28 days (range: 15–50 days).
Who is at risk for hepatitis A?
Is there a cure?
No. There is no medicine for hepatitis A once you have it.
How can hepatitis A be prevented?
do not eat uncooked fruits or vegetables, unless you peel them yourself.
