Dear Steven,
I am an Italian journalist, promoter and DJ. I read about you on "The Performing Songwriter", a nice mag! Also I read "Dirty Linen".
I'd like to promote American singer-songwriters and music like folk, rock, blues and jazz... and I don't remain time to eat and sleep.
Me, like other journalist and promoters are trying to divulge this kind of music that is difficult to promote here in my country. Sometime we succeed to have some gratifications and make know some American songwriters.
I'd like to know more information about you and your musical background. Every promo-stuff is welcome.
Please keep in touch.
Best wishes from Italy,

Saporiti Inc, a family run business since 1927, supplies flavors and ingredients to the food and beverage industry. "Half of our sales come from flavors for producing drinks, chocolate or, ice cream" says CEO, Adrian Saporiti. "We also produce colors and texture agents." The company is divided into three market segments in the food industry, allowing Saporiti to diversify the business.
"In business, by focusing on a specific segment you can grow fast but the more specialized you become the more fragile your business will be. It's sometimes dangerous to specialize in one thing in Latin America. You never know what will happen in the economy or in government policy. The government could forbid one of your main ingredients or an import rate could go up tremendously." Adrian believes that it is important to the long-term health of the business to diversify even at the cost of growing slower.
Learning to run his family business did not always come easily to Adrian. The first 20 years of his professional life was spent working as a pediatric intensive care doctor. It wasn't until an older brother passed away from cancer that Adrian decided to make the switch and enter the family business. "I had to learn quickly but I was ready to tackle the challenge." Adrian is the third generation to take over the business. "My father started this business, then my brother took it over (25 years his senior) and now it's been passed on to me."
One of the harder parts of running a family business is keeping the business in the family from generation to generation. In Latin America, the majority of family run business are managed by the first generation (about 47%), 29% are run by the second generation and only 10% by the third generation. The trend continues to decline generation after generation. Unfortunately, about 13% of family run businesses fail by the third generation.
One reason for the lack of continually run family business may be that children are taking over the business for the wrong reasons. "I believe that kids should not take over the business just because it is the easy path. They should have a strong passion for the industry and the business," says Adrian. He feels that fathers or mothers passing down a family business should make it hard for their children to take over the business. "While kids should inherit stock, they need to earn the right to work in the business." When we asked Adrian if he planned to pass the company to his kids, Adrian replied, "definitely, but I think it's important that they have outside experience first. After they've worked for another company, if they want to be part of Saporiti, I'd gladly welcome them."
To Adrian, Saporiti is a family asset. "It's important to think long term to keep the company prosperous for the family."

FITNESS: Mom's Have a Fit Life Too!
You're constantly putting the needs of others before your own, tying up loose ends, and holding it all together. You have a full-time job, a spouse, a class schedule, hobbies and a pet. You're a mom! You have the most important job in the world and it comes with a great deal of responsibility, so how do you squeeze in a workout or ensure proper nutrition?
If you look at social media, #fitmom, you'll find tons of women who are committed to living fully in all aspects of life, including health and fitness. They've found ways to incorporate physical activity and healthy practices into their daily routine. This, of course, came with trial, error and a lot of practice. Each stage of motherhood has different demands and requirements, so it's important to make time to care for yourself in order to care for your loved ones.
"Being a mom, working and going to school created a very hectic life. Balancing these three components wasn't easy but I had to 'make it happen!" Kirsa Murray, mom of two 3-year-old twin girls, is a perfect example of the trial and error process. Kirsa was determined to make a change for the better, realizing she had many reasons, including her daughters, to embrace a fit, healthy lifestyle. Like all moms, she faces many challenges in the quest to be fit, but she never lets it deter her.
Waking up early, eating breakfast, meal planning, writing out a schedule, and taking "me time" all become important factors when striving toward this change. As far as the actual exercise is concerned, it's important to do your research. Kirsa began by seeking out community resources and kid-friendly gyms in her area. That's when she stumbled upon
The Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center in Chicago, Illinois. This was a fantastic find for her because the gym and its childcare hours worked with her class and work schedule. The staff is great with children and the center even provides aquatics and arts programming for children of members and non-members.
Now, Kirsa's children are 3 years old, they go to school and

Are you still not upgrading your Windows XP to Windows 8? You and about a billion other people. I'm talking about China.
The Chinese government has banned Microsoft's Windows 8 on its computers. China apparently has said it was concerned about computer security.
It also mentioned energy savings, but it's not clear how China will save energy by not using Windows 8.
It's bad news for Microsoft - that's millions of Chinese government computers that won't be running their software.
Don't you get caught without an upgrade. Windows XP is a disaster waiting to happen if it's still on your computer. Here's what you need to know about Windows 8 now.

BSc Eng, MSc Eng, P Eng
Alison's passion for the transformational potential of adult education led her to collaborate with Jill Auchinachie (recently retired) on a longitudinal research project. A longitudinal study was necessary to develop an understanding and analysis of adult upgrading pathways, which are by nature complex and long-term processes. Alison and Jill are working to develop a detailed understanding of the goals and motivations of upgrading students, to understand the steps that brought them to the college to enrol in upgrading courses, and to learn about their experiences during and after enrolment.
In the fall of 2017, they released the Complex Pathways in Adult Education report,which summarizes data from Interviews 1-3. Over five annual interviews, adult upgrading students reflected on and discussed their complex pathways through education, employment, and other areas distinguished by participants. Future research will include findings from all interviews.
Alison and Jill are grateful to the adult upgrading students who took part in this research. They generously gave their time to participate in the annual interviews and to share vital information and insights about their lives and experiences as learners.

Culture and Individual Judgment and Decision Making
Journal of Applied Psychology, Vol. 49, pp. 32-61, 2000
30 Pages Posted: 24 May 2008
In the last two decades, much has been published on the topic of culture and cross-cultural psychology and much on the topic of judgment and decision making (J/DM). However, only a few researchers have examined the intersection of the two areas. In this article, we review this body of research. Our focus is on the four particular J/DM topics that have been studied cross-culturally: Probability judgment, risk perception, risk preference, and modes of decision making. Our review reveals an encouraging trend in cross-cultural J/DM research - a shift from merely describing national differences in overt behavior to cultural perceptions or values. To reinforce this trend, we recommend that future cross-culture J/DM research be more model-based (i.e. testing for the causal effect of independent variables shown to differ between cultures rather than simply describing group differences) and adopt a mosaic-building approach in its data collection (i.e. using multiple methodologies and seeking converging evidence to support or reject any model).

Does ACL Surgery Hurt
Most people assume that they know what to expect when undergoing ACL surgery. More often than not, a large number of ACL patients did not expect that they would suffer so much post-surgery.
Why Is Surgery Needed?
Depending on how serious the tear is, a patient may need to undergo surgery because the ligament needs to be reconstructed. In doing so, it allows the knee to obtain its balance once again. Furthermore, the patient will have the opportunity to get back into his normal routine without any difficulty, although it might take anything from six to 12 months to get things 100% back to normal.
How Painful Is Surgery?
While the patient is undergoing surgery, he will not feel anything, as he will be under anesthesia. The following day, it can be relatively painful, but more often than not, the medical practitioner will prescribe painkillers, so that the pain is more than bearable. Nonetheless, different patients have different pain thresholds; therefore the pain that one feels may be tolerable, while another patient may find it extremely painful.
There have been reports where various female patients who have undergone ACL surgery claimed that it was more painful than giving birth. Others claimed that the painkillers helped relieve the pain incredibly.
During rehabilitation, the physical therapist will normally advise patients on ways to alleviate the pain. Ways of easing the pain may include cold and heat methods where a patient places an ice pack on the area for a few hours, and alternate it with a heating pad every now and then. This method has helped many ACL patients that had to tolerate the post-surgery pain.
When a person sustains a knee injury, it is advisable that he consults a doctor immediately, so that he can find out if he has a torn ACL. If his ACL is torn, he needs to find out if ACL surgery is the only option, or if there are other treatments that he can acquire to heal the injury. It is also highly recommended that he conducts as much research as he can about ACL injuries.

Cavendish Solar Array Dedication/
Having rescheduled because of a snowstorm in February, the weather for the April 20 Cavendish Solar Array dedication was only marginally better-sleet and rain. Consequently, the event was held in doors at the Town Office.
In spite of a very cold and snowy winter, 38,420 kWh have been accrued since the array went on-line at the end of December. You can monitor the array by going to http://22.214.171.124/srvp/FSC/SRV/main.php?siteId=3260
On hand were many of those directly responsible for the planning and building of the solar array, including various members of the Cavendish Energy Committee and members of the Select Board.
Peter LaBelle, chair of the Energy Committee, commented that Cavendish has been in the business of generating energy for the last 108 years.
Starting in 1899, the town clerk, Elliott White recognized the value of the Cavendish Gorge and plans were begun to tap into this resource. In 1905, the Claremont Power Company began construction of the Cavendish Hydro Station on the Black River. The dam was built in 1907, the same year the hydro station became operational. A steel penstock, seven feet in diameter, carried water to the turbines in the powerhouse.
By December 1909, utility poles were being installed in Cavendish and Whitesville and by 1910, Proctorsville and Cavendish villages were wired for electricity. It wouldn't be until 1949 for the last houses in Cavendish to be connected, which was possible because of the Rural Electrification Act passed in 1932.
Interestingly, the same road built for the Hydro Station, Power Plant Rd, is the same one you take to the Solar Array. Hidden well out of site, the array has good southern exposure and even on a dark day, like April 20, its still generating power.
The Solar Array feeds into the Green Mountain Power grid and helps to offset the town's energy bills.

Day 28: GreySave Race To The Park
So, I didn't quite finish about balance yesterday. I was crashing pretty hard and thoughts weren't coming clearly. Balance is how everything goes. Yesterday and today required a little different balance because I wasn't in charge of a meal each day. I did make sure to eat keto, but I don't have a good way of monitoring my macros.
I'm ok with this. I know that I ate keto to the best of my abilities at these events. I am not going to make not being able to track a reason not to do things. The GreySave Race To The Park happens once a year. I helped run a Canine Carnival Booth called Bowling with Greyhounds. I love being able to volunteer with GreySave. I am one of the youngest members of their board. I do my best to help all I can. Having a schedule that allows me to volunteer whenever I can makes me so happy.
Today was a busy day. I arrived around 10:10am and left at 1:15pm from the event. I was up around 7:30am and was delayed in getting to the event because I couldn't figure out the printer. Housesitting again. Not complaining, but frustrating when you're trying to get out the door. After volunteering, went to my boyfriend's work because he had been kind enough to find a piece of paper that I needed and I also needed to grab a tub from him. (Not to mention love getting to see him and hate being away from him).
With the tub, I went to the apartment that I technically live in but am never there. (Long story). I packed up the kitchen with most of my stuff. I went through my books and got rid of the ones that I don't want or use any more. It feels good to go through things and get rid of them. I don't want to move into our new place with a bunch of things I don't need.
GreySave had keto options today. I definitely got some interesting looks with my plate, photo below. I don't mind. If people want to judge it's usually because they don't have all the information. It's hard not to judge. We seem to be programmed to do it even if we try very hard not to.
After packing things up, I finally went and got my hair trimmed. The ends were really starting to bother me. So essentially, I had breakfast with bulletproof coffee, didn't eat until about 12:30pm. I had my electrolyte water to help, but I definitely started feeling hunger symptoms and the food helped. After that, had another electrolyte water.
I didn't snack again until I got back to my parents at 5:30pm. I was starting to flag, so I had a piece of brie (very small), an ounce of goat cheese and a small avocado. Lots of fat! Felt so much better! For dinner I had two turkey breast cutlets and made hamburgers for lunches for the next two days.
Now it's to bed to get up early for work. Only 3 more shifts and then I'm down a job. I'm pretty excited about it.

Eugenie Bouchard advanced to the second round of the BNP Paribas Open following a 2-6, 6-4, 6-2 come-from-behind win against Risa Ozaki on Thursday.
Bouchard, who lost in the final of the Malaysia Open last week, looked set for an early exit at Indian Wells after losing the first set. However, she bounced back to claim the second set, a set which included six consecutive breaks of serve.
The Canadian then dominated Ozaki in the third set, breaking her twice, to progress to the second round, where she will face Sloane Stephens, who was given a bye in the first round.
Shuai Zhang, Christina McHale, Camila Giorgi, and Madison Brengle were among those who also booked their spots in the second round.

IMEX: Politicians Forum Examined Attracting Meetings to a Destination
"How do I attract more meetings and events to my destination?"
That was the central theme of the 2015 IMEX Politicians Forum held in Frankfurt earlier this year as the annual gathering once again brought a group of politicians and meetings industry leaders from all over the world to share insights into the valuable contribution of the meetings industry to the development of knowledge economies.
A complete summary of the discussion is now available, along with interviews from leading participants.
This year's Forum provided politicians with an insight into and appreciation of how the benefits from meetings and events go beyond tourism revenue. It showed that by reaching into the fields of science, technology, education and regional commerce, the benefits are wide ranging and broadly integral to the economic development of a country, region or city.
Moderator Michael Hirst summed up what destinations want to gain from investment in the meetings industry: "All of you," he concluded, "are seeking sustainable solutions to strong economic development."
Keynote Address
That the keynote address was delivered by Professor Mary O'Kane, chief scientist and engineer of New South Wales, reflected the integration of research and academia with the meetings sector and business tourism in developing a knowledge economy.
"National, regional and local economies are increasingly knowledge intensive," she said in opening her presentation. "Knowledge is a fast-moving, ephemeral global commodity. If your knowledge economy is going to be successful you need to be able to access leading edge developments in knowledge and translate them into local things."
During the open discussion, there were many interventions from both politicians and industry leaders. For example, Jon Mamela of the Canadian Tourism Commission explained that Business Events Canada has aligned the organization's sales and marketing activity around the Federal Tourism Strategy, but also with Canada's Global Markets Action Plan in seven key verticals.
South Africa's Business Events Strategy
The Deputy Minister of the South African National Department of Tourism, Tokosile Xasa, explained that South Africa`s business events strategy is aligned to six sectors: manufacturing, mining and metals, business process outsourcing, creative industries, life sciences, and ICT.
"Hosting major events in these sectors contributes to growing our knowledge economy and delivers micro-economic benefits in tourism," she said.
Following a video intervention from SAP chief executive and IMEX Opening Ceremony keynote Bill McDermott to attendees of the Forum, Paul Van Deventer, chief executive of MPI (Meeting Professionals International) agreed: "Planners want to improve delegate numbers, realize a great experience, and feel that they are getting great value for money. But, importantly for destinations, they need to invest in building and maintaining relationships and trust. They also need to develop a unique offer and this can be a cultural experience or a specialty in a sector or industry vertical."
Iceland – Location is Significant
Ragnheidure Elin Arnadottir, Minister of Industry & Commerce for Iceland, explaining that location and accessibility have a significant bearing upon business (or governmental) events destination selection, emphasized that by being just three hours from anywhere in Europe and only five hours from the east coast U.S., location can be a major draw.
The emphasis on alignment to government sector development strategy and local expertise was consolidated by Matthias Schultze, managing director of the German Convention Bureau, which has recently conducted research into what it is that conference organisers want from destinations. The answer, he said, "is knowledge."
"These excerpts from our review of the Politicians Forum provide a taste of the many valuable contributions that were made by politicians and industry leaders in the discussion," Ray Bloom, Chairman of the IMEX Group said in a statement. "The level of debate and engagement were very impressive and indicate that our efforts to raise awareness at the highest level of the benefits of the meetings industry and the evolving role of meetings in economies are achieving a positive impact."
The next IMEX Politicians Forum takes place on Tuesday April 19, 2016 at IMEX in Frankfurt. Politicians who would like to express an interest in participating in 2016 should contact [email protected].


text: Share: Comments Print October 17, 2011 at 10:10 AM Gas giant: Kinder Morgan keeps its star rising Posted by Jon Talton The big deals that were supposed to materialize this year with so much cash sitting in corporate treasuries have mostly proven to be mirages. Finally, for the fourth quarter, we have Kinder Morgan's $21.1 billion acquisition of El Paso Corp. It would make Kinder Morgan the largest operator of natural gas pipelines in the nation — with a combined 66,702 miles of lines — and the fourth-largest energy company. Unlike the aftermath of many such an announcement, both companies' shares are up today on the news. The business is more complicated than it sounds. For example, pipeline owners charge a fee to transport gas to utilities, and also carry more than just gas. But the sweet spot is the growing demand for natural gas pipelines as energy companies undertake horizontal fracturing to release gas from shale deposits. In addition to the huge network the deal creates, the ability to move the gas found from "fracking" is expected to be highly profitable. Kinder Morgan also operates the only oil sands pipeline serving Washington state via Vancouver, B.C., and a biofuels pipeline in Oregon to terminals on the Columbia River. Despite the promises of a "100-year supply" of natural gas at current consumption levels, this deal is actually betting on a higher-cost energy future. The actual production capabilities for natural gas are a source of some debate, even with fracking, which causes assorted environmental problems, including the danger of contamination of water supplies. Many conventional (inexpensive) fields are in decline. And natural gas does nothing to address climate change (yes, it's still there, real and getting worse). In addition, the deal needs heavy antitrust review. While the pipeline sector isn't quite as concentrated as many, that's small comfort in today's mega-corporation America. It will certainly produce a company with the political heft to keep the fossil-fuels agenda in charge in D.C. Aside from those unpleasant realities, it's another coup for founder Richard Kinder, who left Enron before it sent sideways and built the company nearly from scratch.

My first shot at an antelope never even made it out of the gun. I was sitting in the truck eating a sandwich, when my brother-in-law noticed something coming over the hill. It looked like a little white dot mixed in with the sage brush, and as it came closer we all knew it was a buck antelope. He was all alone, which is not normal for bucks this time of year. There was another truck in the distance, where a man was sighting in his rifle. The antelope stopped in the field and looked at us. I hadn't used my dad's 7mm rifle in several years, and I could hardly remember how to even work it. I fumbled out of the truck, leaned over the hood and realized there was no bullet in the chamber. By the time I figured out how to load the gun, the antelope was standing between us and the other truck. I waited to see if he would move away from the truck so I could take a shot, but his slow walk turned into a trot, and before I knew it he was over the hill.
Lesson #1: The shot in front of you may be the only one you get.
The second shot made it out of the rifle, but it only hit dirt. We had been driving around a pretty large section of state land when we saw a small herd of antelope lying in a field. One buck and four does. They were much too far off to take a shot. Joe suggested we come around on foot, sneak up the hill and try to get a shot. This seemed like a good idea, so we got the gun and our cool orange caps and started off across the plains. As we crested the hill, we could see the antelope still lying there. I moved around the left flank and got on my belly. There had been snow the night before, and the ground was still mostly frozen. Any natural instinct a person may have about distance is quickly distorted when you are crawling on your belly across the frozen plains with a high-powered rifle in one hand. I could have sworn I just crawled about 100 yards, but when I looked back at Joe, it was clear I went about 30 feet. I crawled a little more, but I could tell the buck knew something was askew. I got rifle ready, looked through the scope and tried to take aim. My heart was beating so hard I could feel the blood rushing in my ears, and I felt like I might hyperventilate. I paused, took a deep breath and aimed again. I was still having a hard time steadying the rifle, but I did my best and put my finger on the trigger. When I thought I had a good shot, I squeezed the trigger and sent a round flying somewhere over the antelope's back. The herd of four took off running and I watched the second buck of the day escape to live another day.
Lesson #2: Style points don't matter if you can't close the deal.
The next day involved a lot of driving. We drove around different roads looking for public land. We drove around plots of public land looking for access. We drove between, among and around some different areas looking for any signs of life. Most of it was just on the other side of fences, resting peacefully on private land. Our driving eventually brought us to the edge of the hunting area, so we took another road heading back to Buffalo, where we were staying. The GPS told us when we were entering and leaving public land, and we plodded along. I took another shot at a doe on the edge of some public land, but she was moving and I was never able to get my aim. We drove a little further and came across another pretty large herd. Most of them took off as soon as we slowed down, but one of the bucks just stood there and looked at us. I knew we were close to public land, so I decided to take my shot. I leaned over the open door, through the window. I steadied the rifle and took a deep breath. I squeezed the trigger and watched the buck drop to two legs. He got back up and walked over a small hill. I grabbed the rifle and couple more bullets, walked over the hill and saw the buck just standing there. It was at this moment I realized I was about to partake in that most ancient of rituals: the exchange of one life for the continuation of another. I can't explain how I knew this, but it seemed my wounded friend knew it as well.
I walked back up the hill to the truck where my dad and brother-in-law waited for me, and I didn't quite know how to respond. I knew I was not going back to Texas empty handed, but I also knew this was a clumsy, messy hunt. We loaded the buck into the truck and found a better place to field dress him. As we drove back to Buffalo to the meat cutter, I let the whole experience sink in. I was a hunter. Though I had spent many years of my life living among a wide array of wildlife, I had just taken my first communion in this age-old fraternity. The experience was profound and humbling.
Lesson #3: You may not be sure whether or not the animal you just shot at is "the one," but once you hit him, he's the one.
The next day, Joe got his buck in almost the same exact place at almost the exact time of day. His shot was a beauty, with lots of style points and much celebrating afterwards. It was a great way to end our hunting excursion, and I'm sure it will look great hanging on Ella's wall in a couple of months. With any luck, the horns from my antelope will be hanging in the boys' room someday.
I am still not passionate about hunting. Oddly, I feel just about the same about it as I did before. I do intend to look into hunting here in Texas because it is something I would like the boys to do as soon as they're old enough. It may take hold of them like it has my dad and brother-in-law, and I think that's great. I don't know if it will take hold of me, but I want to do it again. When do you get to hang out with other guys for a three days driving around some of the most beautiful country in the world looking at wildlife? Not from an office, that's for sure. This puts the office into perspective. And grocery stores and every dish that contains any kind of meat.
Lesson #4: The Hunt has very little to do with shooting bullets at animals, and more to do with slowing down time, sharing stories and being part of God's creation.

With a long history of sailing Caribbean waters, Princess Cruises is no stranger to the palm tree fringed beaches, sparkling blue waters and eternal sunshine of the tropical region.
Now, the line is continuing its Caribbean love affair with the addition of a brand new destination set to make an appearance on its 2017-18 itineraries.
In search of island life
As well as popular ports throughout the East, West and South Caribbean, Princess ships will also call at the twin-island republic of Trinidad and Tobago. The destinations are part of the line's exciting new 14-day itineraries, with the "Circle Caribbean" route sailing out of Florida's Fort Lauderdale and including a stop in Trinidad. For passengers wanting to soak up the laid back vibes of Tobago, the "Caribbean Connoisseur" voyage makes a beeline for Trinidad's smaller sibling.
"As the amount of visiting ships grow in number, so too are the variety of on-shore activities and tours available for cruise passengers on both islands," says Keith Chin, Chief Executive Officer at the Tourism Development Company of Trinidad & Tobago. "Cruise ship passengers disembarking on our unique islands can enjoy live local entertainment, a variety of island and community tour options and free Wi-Fi, all in a safe and secure environment."
Paradise found
Over the past few years the stunning twin-island country has been welcoming an increasing number of cruise ships, attracted by its quintessential tropical charm. For passengers, the islands offer a host of delights, from towering jungle fringed mountains, bustling central food markets, incredible biodiversity, a fascinating history, vibrant local culture and a welcoming nightlife scene. Plus, for fans of the Beach Boys, making a pilgrimage to the home of the illusive "Island Girl" is a dream come true!
Divers will love the chance to immerse themselves in kaleidoscopic underwater worlds, brimming with tropical fish and other marine life. For bird watching enthusiasts, the protected Tobago Forest Reserve is a mecca, while the luxuriant rainforests also make for prime hiking territory. When the sun goes down, sip on a cocktail, bask in the balmy evening air and dance the night away to boisterous calypso music in a local bar.
Book a cruise to paradise
While the line's Trinidad and Tobago cruises don't launch until 2017, there are still plenty of opportunities to soak up Caribbean sunshine on-board a luxury Princess Cruises vessel. For more information on upcoming voyages, contact our friendly team of Cruise 1st customer service experts on 1300 793 345.

Credentials are highly sought after data, only second to financial account information. Read the Verizon DBIR – http://www.verizonenterprise.com/DBIR/2015/. It's in there somewhere..
Everyone is a target. You might not be the real target, but who are your customers? Hackers == Slimy Used Car Salesmen: They're all looking for the easiest way to a buck and you, Mr Customer, could very easily be an unwilling participant for either of those people. Looking at the hacker use case, your credentials can be monetized either directly or indirectly, depending on the account.
SSL/TLS is really great, but isn't enough by itself. It's great for ensuring the identity of the far end and integrity on the wire, but in the browser (where much of the malware lives these days) those credentials are in the clear. Because they can be seen in the browser, they can be seen by malware and all of a sudden your credentials are for sale on BuyMyCreds.com.
"But Brent, I have 2-Factor Authentication. Who cares if they have my credentials? They don't have my token, right?" Maybe. Is 2FA required in every case for every application all the time? Exactly. No one uses the same password for nearly everything, either. No, your Anti-Virus isn't likely going to notice.. Let's agree you are at risk, yes? NO?! WTH..
Look here! Them there's your credentials. What's nice (for hackers) is that it's fairly trivial for Javascript to punt a copy of them somewhere at the same time you're using them to login. They're easy to find because they're labeled so damn well.
Using WebSafe with Access Policy Manager
Combining two technologies, Access Policy Manager and Websafe, F5 can protect the sensitive application parameters while in motion on the network and in the browser. This works without making any changes to that broken ass homegrown application you've somehow built a business around. APM allows for a single place to define policy across multiple applications and provides authentication services. Using Application-Level encryption and Transaction Protection components, Websafe makes sure the authentication process can happen without exposing user credentials to those naughty hackers.
But Does it Blend?
Even reasonably secure operating systems run into bugs. Take, for instance, the latest Apple bug that allows the export of information right out of Keychain. Those are your locally cached passwords, certificates, WiFi passwords and other super-s3kr3t stuff. Leveraging Websafe can help ensure data stored in the keychain would be unusable to the hackers. It's like a win/win or something.
Tired of typing. Keep it classy.

6 years of childfree: Is life revolves around on having child?
I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it. ~Jack Handey
- This month is our anniversary month. We celebrate none. I was busy with job application and chasing the deadline. Husband on the other hand was so busy, and furthermore we don't have a lot of money either. I wrote previous months ago that we have to change our lifestyle. I'm not working and our savings depleted. There are a lot of things need to be changed, but lifestyle is hardest one. Like, I'm questioning why I can no longer do this, and do that, why I can no longer buy this and that. Husband already told me about our anniversary date, at that time I was at parent's home so I don't bother about it much.
- Upon reaching the end of the year, I read a lot on year review. On how people did their review on the whole year in one post. I was about to do the same and was about to write that my whole year of this 2015 in two words; boring and misery. However, I realized there are a lot of moments I enjoyed, and should be grateful. There are new clothes that my parents and husband bought for me, new handbags, new shoes, new home decorations, good food and impromptu vacations. It's like I don't have to give any ringgit for all those things, but Allah gave them to me anyway. So it is sinful to not to be grateful. Life has ups and downs. I cannot expect life is all bed of roses.
- Been married for 6 years. To be frank, I never thought that my life of 6 years marriage will be like this. Unemployed, penniless, jobless and childless housewife. I was so active and ambitious, always exhausted, but no one thought that my life will be like this, including me. 6 years is not easy when there is only you two. Most of the times, I only grieving and lamenting on having a decent job so that I can earn money, like I don't care if I have a child or not. Like, I already accept my fate. Like, it's okay to have no child.
- But there are times, unexpected times I felt a pang of grief of being childless. I avoid to look the profile photo of Whatsapp or Telegram which most of my friends and acquaintances put their children as profile photo. Most of the time I feel nothing, but there are some unexpected times I feel different, that I feel that I am not perfect. But I brush off the feeling, that how to take care of a child if I still resenting on job and unstable financially..
- Sometimes I self-pitying, that is not good at all. I think I find solace in reading books, joining Twitterjaya or donning myself in good dress and makeup. Oh about donning, I'm not losing weight, but apparently my figure is getting better. People said I'm getting thinner, I don't know but most of clothes I cannot wear before, I can wear them now.
- I also make clear to myself this year I want to be stable instead of trying-to-conceive. It is because I don't want to get pregnant in the middle of career stabilization or PhD beginning (still contemplating in these two). I used to told this to my family, but they thought I just persuading my heart that my state now is ideal while it is not. I want to argue but seems they keep cutting off my speech when I'm expressing my opinion.
- I actually want to write a lot, there are a lot of feelings inside. This morning (this entry is auto-publish, I write this yesterday evening) I was a bit emotional for things I don't know (no, I'm not in PMS). It's just happened that I feel something warm, liquidy rolling down on my cheek, and found I'm weeping. But when I want to express it here, I am sort of losing words. Oh why woman always like this?! Hahaha

Job quest: Being tested, broken but I am okay anyway.
A life without cause is a life without effect. ~Barbarella
Assalamu'alaikum and Hello
- It has been a long time. Frankly I have a lot to write but it always been a constraint, let it time or internet. Furthermore, I keep this blog secret from my husband so when he is around, I do not dare to open, I even clear my search history so that he will not find out. He used to find out my entry that I wrote earlier on Word/Text (can't remember), I insisted on him not to read and not to open the file but he is too adamant. He read and he gave comments like my writing is not good enough. Maybe he just being sarcastic because that entry I talked about his sister-in-law, my biras. That happened years ago but lesson learnt.
- If you ask me if I am busy, yes I am busy, but still unemployed. I attended my Master convocation (finally, phew!) after all hard years. Mind, that I did my master on part-time basis on fully research. So the journey looked alike PhD journey but in small scale. By the time I bound my thesis, I calculated the pages and compared to others, and looks like I achieved something, more than knowledge, but life lesson. I initially refused to attend convocation as I was so embarrassed I am the oldest one, but decided to attend anyway. I just hope I not bump into anyone I know, for example ; my classmate from secondary school who happened to be a lecturer at the university. Tssskk..
- However, after I received my transcript which happened to be so simple compared to coursework students (as I did by research), I never knew that my opportunity to apply job become wider. At the time I received my transcript, there are a lot of job openings which have imminent deadlines. I was not rushing much because I already prepared the other documents, and just photocopied my transcript.
- There also involved of the PhD proposal, I already did one. Last June, after I submitted my hardbound thesis, I was so eager to continue for PhD, so I wrote a proposal which hybrid some of relevant field, i.e. multidisciplinary, which I think easier to secure scholarship. I spent about RM 200 to make passport photos to be attached to application forms, bought ink for printers to print my CV and proposal, bought a lot of Pos Ekspress envelope, bought a rim of A4 papers, and other miscellaneous that happened to consume money that reach about RM 200. I was happy that I eventually able to fill up the form and happy that I am qualified to apply because before this, I applied underrated jobs, which I don't mind actually as long as I get some money. I intend to see in this 3,4 months if I can land a job based from my qualification.
- I got two interviews from there. I was exuberance. I got a job offer from that, but I am tested again for second time, where they offered me a job with good income but happened to be silent afterwards. I attended the interview with positivism, and found that there are two interviewers, one is from HR and one from academic department. It happened that the HR person is dominating the interview session, sometimes cutting off the question from the academic head. And the HR is sort of cynical toward me, like I want to work there only for short period, and not intend to be serious, like I apply to work there because I am not worth for industry and so on. I told her about my experiences and so forth, but apparently the interview session is like I attending a lecture session, on how to be sincere in teaching and give contribution. One time I exchanging glance with academic head with expression that 'this is not right' but I don't mind anyway. I was asked to go for mock teaching, and sort of likable (by the staff and the students), if I can say so (but I'm very sure of it). Teaching in higher institution is not difficult to me, I have experiences at various institution before I migrated here to Peninsula.
- I got a call next morning that I was accepted but with few terms and conditions. At first, the terms and conditions feels so different, I never knew such thing practiced at other institution, but my mother said to try, because eventually it ends my waiting for job. At least I can make some money. And I not decided the rate of my service, the HR decided. Although I felt unease, but when I calculated back the rate, it is quite luxurious to me. Even better for re-joiner of working forces like me. But I still keep it as secret first. The day passed that I still not receive any schedule or email, so I called them back. I said I accept the terms, and HR said they will call me back. Until now it has been two weeks, silence. My father said I cannot do anything about that because I received no black and white, only several calls with HR with me which can be manipulated, considering no witnesses. Husband said the same thing, just let it go, no need to terhegeh-hegeh to show that I am desperate. (Erm, actually I am desperate to earn job and money, haha!). I sometimes kept replaying in my mind of our conversation in calls, to be sure what I heard is true, or if I can misinterpret something, or misheard..But the more I think, the more I am confident that I should knew in the first interview that HR person don't like me for unknown reasons, otherwise she would not lectured me or cynical toward me. I was fool yes, but I never expect this kind of thing happened. I don't know what I did wrong. Luckily I didn't tell my parents-in-law, otherwise they will questioned me like I am the wrong one.
- As I wrote before, this is my second time I deal with this. The first time happened on last July, which I don't know if it is appropriate to me to write it here. Basically I got a job that can pay me just OK but I don't mind. The project should started in the middle of last August, the fund for project is also granted, means there is no such thing as bidding the fund. I waited, and sort of preparing myself to move to work, bring some clothes to my parent's home, took some numbers to rent a room there, prepared some stationery and waited for the call. Months went by and I just knew early in this month that the proposal of the project is stucked at one of the prominent scholars in the area, who actually somewhere in Middle East. I actually trying to convinced myself for months that maybe the research team don't need me as my salary will be a bit expensive compared to degree holder, and the money they can spend on the overseas travel grant. I thought the project is already begun and they hired someone else, so I made no fuss. I just being redha and convince myself maybe the rezeki is not yet.
- My parents was quite sad and grief over my fate and rezeki. They are the parents so they sort of know my struggles and miseries even though I never lament about it. I just don't want them to see me as fragile and burden. Furthermore, I can see that they sort of giving attention to my sister in law with the hope she get pregnant. My husband on the other hand, I don't know what is his feeling, but I can assure he just get used to see me in home as housewife so he can never understand my struggles, my miseries, my unlucky fate and my tears. I tried to connect emotionally with him but I just can't. Yes, I underestimate him to understand my feeling. I don't know why but there are things beyond emotion and expression that I think he is not emotionally connected with me.
- I learned a thing from this thing -- that whatever job calls, or offerings, must be accompanied by black and white. I admit I relied on their sayings, because I think that's how it works nowadays. Three years without going out for work make me noticed there are so much changes in working culture nowadays, and I tried to adapt. But it took its toll on me. I learned so much from this.
- I am okay right now, when things happened again, it's like I'm immune and that thing not hit me hard like it used to. There are things beyond my knowledge and everyone knowledge why this is happening and why things happen for reasons we cannot create. Some people are just quick to judge me like, "Do you pray?", or "Are you donating or giving charity?", or "Do you perform solat Tahajud every night / solat Dhuha every morning?" or "What about asking forgiveness to your parents?" or any other questions that always relating to my deeds. I'm not brushing you off with all spiritual suggestions, I read every comments, I swallow them and I keep them into my mind and heart, but you should know before you suggest, I am far already know that, but to write my good deeds, and to tell people about it in my blog, or to tell people that I already did all those things, is not my style and not my preference. It's not only you, my closest family, friends, and neighbors did too. I was judged as 'lack of connection with God' hence I was tested this way. I understand that most of us are trying to be helpful, and we always want our friend and family to be better, and thus we always provide any best solutions. I also sometimes did it too. But as people tested like this, I am now quite mature to handle the grieving from others. Like I realized that most people are just wanted to be listened, to be calmed, to be motivated, not to be judged. Being judged is adding salt to our wound.
- If you ask me if I am okay now, I am really okay, because I am busy with other things. This thing may not earn me money but may beautify my resume. I will do anything to get a decent job. This things not break me up, rather I will put any extra effort. I am quite grateful that I am busy this way, otherwise I will go into depression state like months ago. (will tell you this later). I believe Allah has provide me a place for me to have a purpose, to contribute, but I have to search it until I found one.
- I may give you impression that my life is full of miseries. Wrong. If I give you impression as so, I may be sinful, because it indicate that I am not grateful for other blessings. I tend to write better when I feeling sad, and when I happy, I will write in my other blog. But I am not good in being consistent. I almost forgot my password. And sometimes I also don't feel right to expose my life even for 2 or 3 percents. While most of you write good and happy things, I write on depression things which sometimes sound like a wet blanket. So instead of being a joy killer, sometimes I give up. I also sort of feel that if I want to write on happy things or my achievement, people will know me. I want to stay anonymous. Because? Next point.
- I want to stay anonymous in this blog because I talked badly about my sisters in laws my biras and some family members. I think talk about other people showing a small mind I have, and talking about family make me look like a bad person. After all, in this era, everything want to go viral even for smallest unimportant thing that most of the bloggers decided to leave blog. When I read your blog on travelling or masak-masak, I also want to do the same but yeah, I am a bad person who have evil thoughts to my sister in laws and birasses or other family members and write about it. How immature.. I actually find some times to delete or to revert to draft on my bad entry, like when I have evil thoughts of persons or things that shows my bad side. I want to do it because I afraid that it will contribute to the bad weight on al-mizan in the Day of Judgement. I admit that I want to delete this blog because TTC is no longer my main priorities. Like what should I write when I do not do anything about it. Or do I have to talk my miseries on being childless all the time? No. But somehow, I found there are numerous blogs on infertility that still write anything in between of their life. One of the links I put in this blog wrote about her life for 17 years after her stillbirth of her daughter. Means, life is not only revolves around getting pregnant just to make it normal. So I decided to keep this blog on banal updates on my life.
- This post is too long. Will continue later.
