How religion changed in the time of the Tudors.
Read this information and then play the quiz!
In 1509 Henry VIII became king. He married Catherine of Aragon. At this time, the people of England were Christians. They were part of the Catholic Church, led by the Pope based in Rome.
In 1525 Henry wanted a divorce from Catherine. The Pope would not give Henry a divorce.Henry was not a Protestant, but he was angry with the Pope.
In 1534 Henry split from the Roman Catholic Church and the Pope. He made himself head of the Church in England.
In 1547 Henry died and his son Edward VI became king. In 1549–51 many of the men in power in England believed in Protestant ideas.
In 1553 Edward died at the age of 16. His sister, Mary I, became queen. Mary was a Catholic. She hated the changes that had been made to religion in England. In 1555–6 all the changes made to religion in the previous years were ended.The Catholic Church was back in England and the Pope was the head of the Church again. People who held Protestant ideas were arrested. About 300 were burned at the stake.
In 1558 Mary died. Her sister, Elizabeth I, became queen. In 1559–63 Elizabeth wanted England to have peace and not be divided over religion. She created the Church of England. This mixed both Protestant and Catholic ideas and ways of doing things. The queen was the head of the Church of England. In 1603 Elizabeth died. During her time as queen, there were attempts to get rid of her and replace her with a Catholic ruler. None worked.
Today Queen Elizabeth II is head of the Church of England.

5 Best Practices for Successful Nonprofit Annual Reports
Yesterday, we posted about the 5 Components of a Successful Nonprofit Annual Report. That post really focused on content, but today we have a more well rounded list of best practices that touch on content, mindset and design.
1. Fun to read
Yes, I said fun. Let's be honest, who wants to read a report that looks long and boring? Even if the information might have the potential to be compelling, if the piece looks like work to read, it won't get read. Sad, but true.?? The report should be an easy read that allows for skimming and scanning. Interesting photos, stories, pull quotes and facts? Yes, please!
2. Think of it as a fundraising tool
Let's be honest, it requires a lot of time and at least some money to put together an annual report.So make sure you are getting the best return on your investment by preparing your annual report to work for you as a fundraising tool.
3. Remember your audience
If you take our advice and think of your annual report as a fundraising tool, remember that your audience isn't familiar with your organization or insider lingo yet, so write for this audience using plain language.
4. Highlight your impact
You still need to thank your supporters and include your financials, but don't forget to show the impact you are making. Readers want more than a long list of names, they want to see the people whose lives are better because of the work you do. They want to see those faces and understand their story. This creates an emotional connection to your organization and provides a level of understanding to your viewer that simple numbers and lists just can't deliver.
Also consider how you can demonstrate your accomplishments, not just activities. Highlight your results and how you did it.
(Want to read more about five key components every successful nonprofit annual report should include? Check this out.)
5. Digital yes, but don't go completely paperless
It's undeniable that having access to your annual report online is a must. Many people expect to have the option to read that content on their computer, smartphone and/or tablet. But the fact remains that having a print piece that you can hold in your hands is still compelling. In fact, a research study shows that holding a piece of paper in your hands causes more emotional processing brain activity than viewing something digitally.
Get Up and Up Creative's Help
Ready to make your next annual report an effective one that works for your organization? One that people will actually want to read? One that gives you a good return on all of the time and money you put into it?

Painted on canvas with stretched frame. No frame.
Born 1958 in Lund. Works with oil, acrylic, watercolor, gouache and drawing.
Art has always been a big part of my identity. Already as a child I felt at home in the colorful world of the image and form. Here the imagination was free and the creativity flowed. I decided to become an artist when I was in my teenage years. It was not a difficult choice because I have always drawn and painted as long as I remember - things from life, society, imagination. During the 80's I attended a private art school in Liège, Belgium, and worked as an apprentice at various artists in Belgium, Holland and France for 4 years.
My painting is colorful and often very rich in content. Each picture tells a detailed own story based on an inner drive to want to convey something, a thought, a feeling, an opinion. It is a way of communicating simply, a form of conversation. My contribution to the conversation is a picture that can be interpreted in many different ways.

Fledglings: UAL Design Graduates
Fledglings is one of the freshest and most exciting events in designjunction 2014. Showcasing the work of a selection of graduates from London's most creative design courses (BA 3D Design at Camberwell College of Arts, MA Design: Ceramics, Furniture and Jewellery at Central Saint Martins and BA Sculpture at Wimbledon College of Arts), the Fledglings stand presents these graduates as budding design professionals.
Works ranging across the spectrum of design will be showcased in this vibrant and engaging display. Products that are ready to be taken to the market will be seen alongside more experimental approaches. These include Katharina Gross's wax made furniture and Dunia Tigris's Lone Diner project that uses marquetry juxtaposed with construction grade
Deceptively simple design coupled with wit, imagination and craft all feature in the Fledglings' work. Si Taylor makes exquisite bespoke bicycle-inspired furniture, from steel bicycle tubing and saddle leather. His Randonneur Chair will be shown alongside Sophia Mepham's Equilibrium, a well-crafted high-end wooden bench made out of oak and meranti that eases into the form of the human body when you sit on it.
Many of the graduates have already gained media interest, including Gigi Barker (9191 Studio), who makes skin-like furniture that mimics roles of fat. Meanwhile designers and makers Happenstance Workshop who will be showing their SACK System are currently in talks with an online retailer to stock their work.
Designjunction is the most important global meeting point of the London Design Festival and a selection of the participants work in Fledglings relates back to their homelands. Ana Jiménez Palomar's wooden furniture is made from extracting and analysing the traditional extravagant Mexican mask culture, while Yoshika Kobayashi's sophisticated designs draw on her Japanese heritage.

An App for Spinners? Yes!
There's nothing like the blend of old technology with new. This is especially true when the new helps us out with the old. Sometimes it's little things like niddy noddy calculations. I have a niddy noddy on which one wrap is 60 inches. I can't tell you how many times I've had to do a math question like (60 x 113) ÷ 36 = ? to find out how many yards of yarn I have.
Spinners are always solving math problems. If I spin a yarn that has 18 Wraps Per Inch, approximately how many yards will I have in an ounce? How many ounces do I need to spin to have enough yards for my project? How do I achieve my desired twist on a wheel ratio of 1:6 with a short draft of about 4 inches. It goes on and on.
Well guess what? Today I stumbled onto what I think is a seriously cool iPhone/iPod Touch app for the spinning community. It's called iSpin Toolkit. You can measure the angle of your twist, find your WPI or TPI and calculate a myriad of things from WPI to grist, niddy noddy figuring and even the number of treadles needed to create a certain TPI. I've been playing with it this afternoon and I have to say, it makes the calculations fun. You can choose a light screen or a dark one, whichever is easier on your eyes. There's even a ruler to check your gauge.
There are a lot of craft apps that look cool, but I can't really see myself using them. This one is loaded with practical tools. I think iSpin Toolkit is worth checking out.

I am totally checking the app out. Both of my niddy noddy's are different in size and neither is an even length. Why do they do that?
Thanks for sharing.

I have no idea! I think the perfect niddy noddy would be 1.5yds. Two yards feels uncomfortably long to wind and one yard makes kind of short, fat skeins. Our odd length niddy noddys are probably made overseas. My 60" converts to 1.5 meters. Maybe I need to convert with it. :D

Titans QB sacks Ripken comparison to Favre
Titans quarterback Kerry Collins has a unique perspective on Brett Favre's streak of consecutive starts, a streak that's clearly in jeopardy this weekend
[picapp align="left" wrap="true" link="term=Brett+Favre&iid=10053981″ src="http://view4.picapp.com/pictures.photo/image/10053981/minnesota-vikings/minnesota-vikings.jpg?size=500&imageId=10053981″ width="234″ height="226″ /]Favre is the oldest quarterback in the league. Collins is one of the five oldest.
Collins has been hurt, benched and released. He has played for multiple teams. He has made the Pro Bowl and started in the Super Bowl.
In short, he has seen it all. And he says what Favre has done – start 315 consecutive games including the postseason at quarterback – will never be seen again.
"That's beyond freakish," Collins said in the Titans locker room on Wednesday. "I can't imagine playing quarterback in the NFL and starting every game for 20 years. There's no human explanation for it. It will never be done again.
"It's not like the guy didn't run around. He got out of the pocket and made plays and ran and took hits. To be that durable is just freakish."
[picapp align="right" wrap="true" link="term=Kerry+Collins&iid=9687944″ src="http://view.picapp.com/pictures.photo/image/9687944/tennessee-titans-carolina/tennessee-titans-carolina.jpg?size=500&imageId=9687944″ width="234″ height="334″ /]Collins has seen some media outlets comparing Favre's streak to that of baseball ironman Cal Ripken. The comparison holds no water with the guys of the gridiron.
"I saw them comparing Cal Ripken's streak and there's just no comparison in my mind, just the physical abuse that a starting quarterback takes over the course of a season and a career is just beyond comprehension," Collins said.
Collins watched Favre hobble around in the Sunday night loss to the Packers. He was asked why the Vikings QB would put himself through such torture.
"The guy loves to play," Collins said. "That's why he does it. If he walks out there on Sunday it wouldn't surprise me one bit regardless of how his ankle feels. It's something inside that guy … he's gonna play come hell or high water."

The reason behind this whole blog thing was down to a few things...
One: I'm a writer, but I never seem to write enough.
Two: I have this inexplicable thirst to talk about things I'm into which is never quenched.
And lastly: Why the hell not.
The 'Why the hell not' aspect is the biggest point. Maybe even words to live by.
Why the hell not make a positive change to your eating habits? Your lifestyle? Your ways of thinking?
Events in my life made me review how I was living; my attitude, what I was putting in my body and my mind. It was time to change. And it was time to do something productive....and so cue blog.
I'm Australian but have been living in the UK for the bigger portion of my life. So some days when I'm enjoying fine tea, perfect autumn weather and everything that London has to offer I feel delightfully British. But other times when I'm craving the beach, the heat of the southern sun and ripe avocados, I'm Aussie through and through.
Now, in Australia, you can't walk down the street without running into a juice bar and getting smacked in the face with a beautifully ripe avocado. Despite being in the top five obese countries in the world, whenever I'm visiting I get the vibe that a lot of Australia is very dedicated to a healthy lifestyle. Whenever I'm there I am in heaven with raw food restaurants, beautiful organic produce, juice bars and avocado on everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. Even at McDonalds (And here is the only time I will mention the M D word…probably). I leave feeling rested, rejuvenated and perfectly positive.
But then I get back to the UK. The UK, or especially East Anglia where I live, doesn't play ball when it comes to healthy living. Juice bars? Meh. Raw food? Not outside of London, bub. A decent vegetarian menu that doesn't involve some kind of risotto or pasta dish? You must be joking. So I find it hard to stick in that Sydney state of mind where I want to stay happy and healthy giving the best to my body and mind.
Motivation. This blog is going to motivate me to sticking with healthy was of living, eating and being. If it motivates other people, well, that would be amazing. Plus I have the belief that the more we connect, the better the journey will be.
The obligatory disclaimer: I'm not a personal trainer, I'm not a nutritionist or dietitian, I'm not a cook, I'm not any kind of health professional. I am, however, a wannabe pseudo-hippy living in a country that denies me good coconut water and a bloody ripe avocado. And this space, dear internet friend, is where I will pour out my soul/musings/adventures in trying to live with that Aussie state of mind while enjoying all that East Anglia has to offer.

I am a visual person. I'm that girl who has to move the couch around five times before knowing where I want it.
To avoid the hassle of buying and returning things that may not work for Em's toddler room, I drew a scale model using Illustrator. This raised several unexpected questions:
- Should I place her bed facing the door, even though that's the death position in Feng Shui? Sure, Em knows nothing about Feng Shui. But her paranoid, superstitious mom does. Bed will face another direction.
- Dresser: 3 or 6 drawers? I hadn't even entertained a 6-drawer dresser until I re-read this Young House Love post. The more I thought about it, the more I realized we'd make great use of the extra drawers.
- Desk or Table? I wanted to get her a desk, but I really enjoy sitting with her while coloring/reading. I briefly considered getting her a small vanity, but paranoid premonitions of fostering self-image issues helped me nix that idea fairly quickly.
- Round or Rectangle Table? I really like the look of a 29″ round table, but I think the smaller 29″ x 19″ rectangular Sundvik table will work better. We already have one in our living room, so I'll hold off buying a second one until everything's in the room. Once that happens, I may sneak a round back in.
Five hundred gazillion mom hours and second guesses later, I think I've found the most optimal configuration, complete with sleep, dressing and play zones as well as a cozy reading corner:
Of course, it's Mercury Retrograde, so I could easily toss this out once I purchase everything this week.
Next weekend, I paint the walls. I haven't painted a room in a LONG time. Please wish me lots of luck.
And feel free to bring me margaritas. 😉

U.N. Seeking to Intervene in U.S. Border Crisis
As always, at the end of the day, it's about Agenda 21 and the New World Order.
I wonder how many American's realize:
- Border Patrol Agents and others are calling this a "manufactured crisis", completely unnecessary and completely planned by Obama and his cronies
- This is a controlled event, with very little oversight by either Congress or the media of the conditions on the ground.
- Many, if not thousands of these men, women and children are carrying serious and contagious diseases that include:
- The Obama regime is asked Congress for almost $4 Billion dollars...not to control or close the borders, but rather to process those that have come, which will no doubt help move them into our cities populations that much more swiftly.
- It is Obama's policies and executive orders that have signaled Central America to come to the U.S. with no fear of deportation.
- Over 50,000 illegal immigrant children have come across the border since last October.
- Back in May it was reported and expected that over 120,000 illegal immigrant children would enter the U.S.
- In June, Obama granted renewal for work permits for 520,000 immigrants
"You make whatever promises you've got to, but in the end they have said they want to turn Texas blue, they want to turn America blue.
"And if you bring in hundreds of thousands or millions of people and give them the ability to vote and tell them … [if] you want to keep getting the benefits, you have to go vote … that drives people to vote and it will ensure that Republicans don't ever get elected again.''
UNITED NATIONS – Representatives of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, or UNHRC, are "intensely discussing in meetings" the possibility of extending U.N. protection to the thousands of Central Americans crossing the U.S. border with Mexico illegally by defining them as "refugees" who are seeking asylum from political and domestic violence in their home nations, WND has confirmed.
Officials privy to the U.N. discussions have explained to WND it's "a tricky situation," because the Central American immigrants are not part of any group the U.N. has designated as victims of political or religious persecution.
A UNHCR official confirmed Monday to WND via email that a 10-nation meeting in Nicaragua of ministers of the interior from the U.S., Mexico and various Central American countries was held Thursday and Friday.
The ministers, according to preliminary reports obtained by WND, concluded the Central American illegal aliens are "refugees" deserving international protection under the auspices of the U.N. as they seek asylum in the U.S. The ministers cited the U.N.'s 30-year-old declaration on the rights of refugees.
Attending the meeting were UNHRC representatives, as well as representatives of SICA, the El Salvador-headquartered non-government organization known in English as Central American Integration System. The group was endorsed by the U.N. General Assembly in a resolution Dec. 10, 1993, to create regional bodies and institutions authorized to interact with the U.N. officially in an effort to unify Central American states politically and economically.
On Monday, the UNHRC in Colombia notified WND the U.N. would issued a press release Tuesday afternoon on last week's 10-nation meeting in Nicaragua, after receiving comments from SICA and the host country.
In 1991, SICA was created by Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama, with Belize becoming a full member in 2013. SICA includes the U.S., Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Uruguay and Colombia as regional observers.
Delia M. Arias De Léon, a Wellesley College political science student currently serving as a WND intern at the U.N. in New York City, contributed to this article.

Today we are happy to present you special report from our friend Cordula from Take That TB organization about the opening of photo exhibition dedicated to Tuberculosis! We are highlighting today tuberculosis as one of the dangerous communicable disease, which can be prevented and treated with success!
Tuberculosis is a forgotten illness in Europe. In many other parts of the world this illness is still rife and shows in connection with AIDS a menace for the world health.
On the 9th of November 2012 the photo exhibition "STOP TB! Tuberculosis - A worldwide menace" was opened. It was carried out in cooperation with the stop TB Partnership.
On the 9th of November 2012 the photo exhibition "STOP TB! Tuberculosis - A worldwide menace" was opened. It was carried out in cooperation with the stop TB Partnership.
The exhibition shows impressing photo reports from photojournalists like Pulitzer prizewinner David Rochkind. They all have documented the situation of tuberculosis patients worldwide for several years. After an introductory talk of the epidemiologist Dr. Stefanie Castell of the Helmholtz centre Braunschweig that inspired the audience by its descriptiveness, possibilities of the fight against TB were discussed with a high-carat occupied panel discussion. During this panel discussion Dr. Peter Reff of the KfW developing bank said, 'It is a scandal that all 20 seconds a person must die because of a remediable illness like tuberculosis. Prof. Dr. Klaus Fleischer of the German leprosy and tuberculosis relief (DAHW) underlined that tuberculosis is above all a poverty illness. Mrs. Diekwisch of the pharmaceutical campaign BUKO and Mrs. Heykes-Uden of the tuberculosis advice centre of the region Hannover agreed that poverty fight, the improvement of the living conditions and access to education are most important components in the fight against tuberculosis.
The appearance of Cordula whose tuberculosis illness was not recognised in Germany more than 15 months by several doctors was very moving. The courageous young woman reported that many doctors did not recognise her illness for a long time and she also talked about unawareness about tuberculosis. Now the young woman fights together with the German leprosy and tuberculosis relief (DAHW) and with her own patient organization for a better understanding and knowledge of the illness in Germany. " Such cases show us that we must fight for more awareness of tuberculosis in Germany, and our exhibition contributes an important part to it", both curators Harro Schmidt and
Dr. Matthias Stehr added.

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — The X-Rated Critics Orgaanization has announced the latest additions to its Hall of Fame.
Induction will take place at the 2015 XRCO Awards, which will be held in Los Angeles in April.
This year's class of nine adult industry luminaries includes classic performers, pioneering film makers, a long time friend of the industry and the father of one last year's inductees.
The complete list of 2015 XRCO Hall of Fame inductees is as follows: Jeff Mullen, Stoney Curtis, Houston, Melissa Hill, Jim Dawson, Lasse Braun, John Seeman, Karen Summers and Seymour Satin.
Jeff Mullen has been in the adult industry for more than two decades. Director of more than 120 adult movies, Mullen is perhaps best known for his work in the porn parody genre. From his "Not the Bradys" franchise to last year's XRCO Best Parody (Comedy) winner "Grease A XXX Parody," Mullen's impact on the genre is evident.
Stoney Curtis has directed more than 300 adult movies in his career. His early work for Elegant Angel included "Sticky Fingers" and "Filthy Attitudes," as well as several volumes of the successful "Cumback_Pussy" series. From there, Curtis went on to be the driving force behind Lethal Hardcore and Celestial Pictures. Known best for his beautifully shot gonzo scenes, Curtis has directed such series as "Hot Bods & Tail Pipes," "Seduced by a Real Lesbian" and "Swallow Every Drop."
Two blondes and a brunette make up the female performer trio joining the hall this year. Eighties cutie-turned-experienced MILF Karen Summers is being inducted as her comeback is in full effect. Known for her record-setting gang bang efforts, Houston gets the hall call this year. Versatile and beautiful, Melissa Hill rounds out this trio. According to XRCO, Hill is considered by many adult critics to be one of the most underrated stars in adult cinema history.
"It was difficult narrowing down the ladies to be inducted as many from past years are long overdue. This year we went with Karen Summer, who still has what it takes to get Bill Margold excited," an XRCO rep said. "Also going in are two fan and industry favorites: legendary performers Houston and whacky and delightful Melissa Hill."
Last year, director Axel Braun was inducted into the XRCO Hall of Fame. This year, Braun's late father, Lasse Braun, joins him. Director of 70's erotic cinema classics "French Blue" and "Body Love," Lasse was widely considered a pioneer in the industry.
"My biggest regret regarding Lasse Braun is that he passed on barely a few days before we could make this announcement about the inductees of the XRCO Hall of Fame," the rep added. "I was unaware of his illness, and wish the best to Axel and his family during this sad time. Lasse's legacy, as evident by Axel's firm position in the adult industry, will continue."
Finally, Seymore Satin joins the Hall of Fame class as a special friend of the industry. Since 2003 Satin has hosted Porn_Star Karaoke every week at Sardo's in Burbank, Calif.
The 2015 XRCO Awards Show time and location will be announced soon.
The XRCO was founded in 1984 to give writers and editors from the adult entertainment industry a voice in selecting the yearly best in hardcore movies.

Five Facebook Privacy Tweaks
Facebook has a privacy center that offers even more privacy options, and reintroduced some of the older, lesser-known security settings. This article will round up the most important new privacy options, including a few that Facebook had buried until now.
1. Approve tags before they're published.
Facebook finally lets you approve tagged photos and posts of you before they land on your profile. How many times has a friend tagged you in an unflattering photo? It's time to end these actions. Go to Account > Privacy Settings and select Edit settings next to "How tags work." Then hit Edit next to Profile Review and you'll be prompted to turn on the settings. Now, every time someone tags you in a status, photos, or place, the post will appear in the Pending approval section on your profile.
2. Decide who gets to see your posts.
Once you write your status, click on the small triangle next to the Post button to make the post visible to: friends, public (anyone on the Internet), or custom (exclude individuals or lists).
To change the visibility after you've posted, head back to the post on your wall, hover over it, and click the drop-down menu in the upper-right to change the visibility.
3. Change privacy for any profile item.
It's much easier to change the privacy for every element of your profile. You can share your hometown with everyone, but your birthday to just your friends. Or, make it so that only close friends can see who you're in a relationship with.
Go to your profile and select Edit profile at the upper-right corner of the page. Then head to one of the categories and change the privacy of its elements using the drop-down menu next to each field.
4. Select the default privacy setting for posts.
Head to your privacy settings, and scroll down to "Control your Default Privacy." Here, you can select the default audience for all your posts–Public, Friends (all your friends), or Custom (exclude certain friends or lists).
5. Preview your public profile.
Once you make all the privacy tweaks, see how your profile appears to certain friends or anyone on the Web. Go to your profile and select "View profile as…" in the upper-right corner. Enter a friend's name or select the public link in the instructions above the field to see what it looks like to everyone.

Ten Common Methods of Password Protection
Currently, many PC user's passwords was stolen due to a lack of network security awareness and a sense of self-protection, As a consequence, it result in economic losses caused by hackers stealing, and today I will discuss ten methods password protection measures, which can help you to improve network security awareness.
1. Using a complex password
it is highly effective for simple password to list numerous password, but if the network user has set a longer password and there is no obvious clue or evident features (such as special characters and numbers with some combination of letters), thus the process of listing numerous password is very difficult indeed. The cracker will also lose patience to break a long exhaustive password. Usually, It is believed that password length should be at least longer than six and preferably overpass eight, the secure password should contains letters, numbers and symbols, not using pure digital password or a combination of common English words, not using their names as passwords or the birthday, either.
2. Using the soft keyboard
In order deal with keystroke logging, there is a comparatively common way which is trying to input password through the soft keyboard. Soft keyboard, also known as virtual keyboard, when users enter a password, they open the soft keyboard before, then click the mouse to select an appropriate letter to input, so that they can avoid Trojan records keystrokes, In addition, it can further protect the password. As for users, they can also disrupt the input code sequence, thus intensify the difficulties to be invaded by hackers.
3. Using dynamic passwords (one-time password)
Dynamic Password, also known as a one-time password, refers to the user's password changes constantly in accordance with the certain time or the number of dynamic, each password is only used once. Dynamic Password is very effective for preventing screenshots cracking. Even if screenshots crack the password, it just cracked one password. Next time when logon to it, you will not use the same password. However, considering the cost, most current dynamic password are original passwords card used for scratching paper, rather than real-time dynamic passwords. It is difficult to guarantee the safety. Real dynamic lock adopts a special hardware called dynamic hardware, built-in power supply, password generation chips and displays. In which the number keys is used to enter the user PIN code, the display is used to display a one-time password. Every time entering the correct PIN code, uses will get a one-time dynamic password currently. Because every time the password you used must be generated dynamic token, the user's password is different each time, so hackers are difficult to calculate the dynamic password the next time there. But the real cost of dynamic code cards is 100$ to 200$, the high costs limited its large-scale use.
4. To prevent phishing
Methods to prevent phishing is: user should be alert not to log on unfamiliar site, do not open email from strangers, install anti-virus software and update virus and timely knowledge base and operating system patches. Use secure email system, such as Gmail because it usually automatically classified phishing messages as spam, IE7 and Fire Fox also have the features of anti-phishing, When you visit the phishing Web site, it will Pop-up prompt message.
5. Use SSL to prevent Sniffer
The traditional network service program, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, POP3, and Telnet, etc., in essence, are unsafe, because they transmit over the network using clear text passwords and data, sniffer is very easy to intercept the passwords and data. To Sniffer, we can use session encryption scheme to encrypt all data transmitted, so that even if the Sniffer sniffed the data, it is difficult to decrypt the encrypted data reduction. Currently widely used is SSL (Secure Socket Layer) which can transmit encrypted data packet easily and safety, when users enter password which should be used to support SSL protocol such as HTTPS, SFTP, SSH, rather than HTTP, FTP, POP, SMTP, TELNET and other agreements. Most Google services including Gmail support SSL, which can prevent the Sniffer to monitor, SSL security authentication can used to secure communications even in unsafe network.
6. Do not save your passwords in the local
It is not good to store password in the local. Most application software (such as some FTP, etc.) saves the password which is not designed safely. If there is not a good encryption strategy, it would allow hackers to crack the code to facilitate the convenient door.
7. Using the USB Key
USB Key is USB interface hardware. It is built-in smart card chip microcontroller, and has some storage space to store the user's private key and digital certificate, using the built-in public key algorithm of USB Key to achieve the user identity authentication. As the user private key stored in the password lock, in theory it can not be read with any way, so it ensure the security of user authentication. As the high degree of USB Key security, and cost only tens of dollars, it is widely used in online banking USB Key digital certificate encryption. With the USB Key, even if attackers can't complete remote control of the user's computer, can not successfully login authentication transactions.
8. Personal password management
In order to maintain a strict password management concept, the implementation of periodic replacement of the password can be replaced once a month or quarterly. Never write your password on paper. Do not use easily guessed by others password.
9. Password grading
As to different network systems use different passwords and critical systems with more secure passwords, we should never use the same password for all systems. For those who occasionally log on the forum, setting a simple password is enough, for important information, e-mail, online banking and the like, it is necessary to set a complex password. Never take forums, e-mails and bank accounts as a password set.
Biometrics refers to the computer which uses inherent physical characteristics of human body or behavioral characteristics to carry personal identification. Common biological features include: fingerprints, palm prints, iris, voice, handwriting, face like so. Biometrics is a simple and reliable biological cryptography, biometrics technology is recognized by people themselves, because each person's biological characteristics is different from others in the same period of time with uniqueness and stability, so it can not easily be forgery and counterfeiting. Y you can ensure maximum security of personal information. Human feature recognition technology currently on the market share of the highest fingerprint and hand-shaped machine, these two means of identification technology are currently most mature.
Windows Password Recovery Software is a professional windows password management software, it is effective and powerful for user whose windows password is cracked by hackers and can't logon, Similar products on the market are mostly in the form of command prompt with entering commands to manipulate programs to reset the password. This is not practical for common users who are not familiar with commands. This program is a traditional program with GUI interfaces, allowing users use mouse pointers to click on buttons and control the process, friendly and easy indeed! What's more, it provides a burner software program that you don't have to use any other third-party burner software for an ISO image burning.buy xenical online

Your Wedding – – Wedding Articles[three_fourth]
Choosing the Perfect Wineland Wedding Venue
The Cape Winelands encompass some of the most scenic areas of South Africa. The wine industry started within a few years of the first European settlers arriving at the Cape, and the architecture of the oldest farms showcase the influences of these early settlers, with the beautiful old homesteads, for example, Vergelegen in Somerset West and Groot Constantia in Cape Town.
Brides are spoilt for choice when finding a wineland wedding venue in the Cape. Old and traditional or Cape Dutch with a modern twist, these venues often have stunning settings in the vineyards with the majestic Cape mountains always present as a backdrop. Many brides travel from far and wide to have their weddings in the Cape winelands and the venues are geared up for large weddings or many of the smaller places are perfect for smaller, more intimate weddings.
The near perfect summer weather makes planning a bit easier as you can almost guarantee that during the hot summer months moving towards the autumn (and harvest time for the grapes) there is a minimum chance of rain. The winters have their own charm with colder wet weather which are perfect for cosy fireside receptions.
Cape Town itself offers wineland weddings in unique settings. Constantia Uitsig has the Uitsig Restaurant and the world famous La Colombe Restaurant where they offer bespoke weddings. Groot Constantia which is the original and oldest wine farm in the country has the choice of two venues, a more traditional one near the main house and the more modern one, Simon's, which is situated amongst the vineyards up against the mountain.
Stellenbosch, the picturesque university town with oak lined streets, is probably the best known with some very historic venues. Most of the venues have a place where you can have your ceremony as well as your reception, but if you wish to make your vows in a church, Stellenbosch has some traditional stone churches in the different denominations. Nooitgedacht is a gorgeous old wine farm that is family run and offers very special weddings. Backsberg is another popular wedding venue with a scenic backdrop for your wedding photos. Blaauwklippen is one of the oldest homesteads in the Cape offering stunning weddings. Clos Malverne is also a family owned wine estate offering weddings. Stellenrust has breathtaking views overlooking Table Mountain. Klein Bottelary offers elegant, original wine farm weddings. Kleine Marie offers you peace of mind concerning your food, flowers and décor as they are able to take care of all your needs. Your wedding photographs will be truly amazing with the vineyards and the gorgeous scenery at any of these venues!
Clouds Estate high up on the Helshoogte Pass has stunning views overlooking Franschhoek. They also have a chapel and a rooftop area for very special weddings. Rickety Bridge is a special wineland wedding venue with sublime scenery situated near Franschhoek. Want to get married on a Polo and a Wine Estate? Look no further than Val de Vie which is situated in the beautiful Franschhoek valley. L'ermitage Village offers the perfect setting for those who want to make their wedding really special and romantically unique. The famous Allee Bleue Estate is perfect for larger weddings, and La Residence is perfect for smaller, more intimate ceremonies.
The cooler area of Durbanville has two of our most popular venues, Cassia Restaurant and Meerendal. Cassia's architectural simplicity is a contemporary reflection of classic Cape Heritage and offers a combination of mountain views and waterside serenity. At Meerendal celebrate your Cape wedding day in the tranquil setting of Meerendal's vineyards, wheat fields and mountain views.
Paarl which is situated about an hour out of Cape Town has some very special wedding venues. Nestled amongst the vineyards, Le Bac Estates is an enchanting mix of old and new. At Palmiet Valley, many couples choose to get married in the Estate's beautiful gardens with only the sky and the majestic mountains and vineyards as the backdrop.
Wineland weddings are a fabulous way to mix the old with the new. These venues can definitely deliver the wedding of any girl's dreams and are worthy of consideration when planning and choosing your venue.

Can I have coloured tablecloths and napkins?
Our catering partners provide white linens as standard although they have a number of alternatives available at a nominal fee. Please contact Jenkinsons Caterers directly to discuss, on 01785 252247 or email email@example.com
Just remind me what The Ashes provides on the day?
Cake Stand (round or square) with Cake Knife
Stainless steel table name holders
All the chairs and tables
Up to 3 high chairs
Your Events Manager
Microphone & PA system for the speeches
Background music where required
Please visit our Prices and What's Included page for a comprehensive listing.
Do you allow professional firework displays or Sky Lanterns (Chinese Lanterns) at your venue?
No. Due to our rural setting surrounded by farmland with livestock and ponies, we cannot allow fireworks or Sky Lanterns. A great alternative can be something like a laser display or dove release.
Do you have a list of recommended suppliers?
We have a fantastic Suppliers Directory featuring a host of local wedding suppliers passionate about providing you excellent service, everything from Florists to Photographers, DJs and live bands, Hair Stylists to Vintage Ice Cream Vendors; you're sure to find what you're looking for on our online Suppliers Directory.
Can I supply the Evening Buffet?
No. To ensure the very highest standards in both culinary excellence and food hygiene, The Ashes works exclusively with one of the most respected independent caterers in the UK. Jenkinsons Caterers are competitively priced and can offer advice on how to best cater for your evening guests.
When is the best time for the DJ / Band to set up?
It is great if the DJ or Band can set up before the ceremony, so no sound checks are going on during key moments of your day. (The Ashes recommended DJ's, Sound Solutions always set up in advance.) If this isn't possible, your Events Manager will liaise with your band or DJ when they arrive to ensure as little disruption to your day as possible during their set up.
Is there an area that could be used as a crèche if needed?
The Old Dairy or The Ceremony Barn can be used as a crèche area later in the day, with full supervision being necessary. We have a great recommendation for a company who supply fabulous 'soft play' equipment within our Suppliers Directory.
Is there a quiet area for our more mature guests once the DJ or Band get going?
In most cases when the band or DJ are in full swing on the dance floor, the noise level is fairly well contained, so at the opposite end of The East Barn it is possible to enjoy a conversation without needing to shout. The sound insulation above the dance floor ensures no more than an ambient level of noise in The Bar and if complete silence is required The West Barn can be used.
Do you have a Public Address (PA) system that can be used for speeches?
Yes, there is an individual PA system in each barn.
How many high chairs have you got?
We have three high chairs. Should you require more, your guests are welcome to bring their own.
When do we drop everything off for the wedding?
At 9am or 9.30am the day before your wedding.

When do we set up for the wedding?
Your suppliers have access to the venue from 10am on the morning of the wedding, when your Events Manager will set up for you together with your chosen florist and our fantastic caterers.

The so-called "Super Congress" that is about to be created with the debt ceiling vote will have powers far beyond just controlling the nation's purse strings – its authority will extend to target the second amendment – eviscerating normal protections that prevent unconstitutional legislation from being fast-tracked into law.
As the Huffington Post reported last month, the debt deal that has already been passed by the House and faces the Senate tomorrow will create an unconstitutional "Super Congress" that will be comprised of six Republicans and six Democrats and granted "extraordinary new powers" to quickly force legislation through both chambers.
Legislation decided on by the Super Congress would be immune from amendment and lawmakers would only be able to register an up or down vote, eliminating the ability to filibuster. The Speaker of the House would effectively lose the power to prevent unpopular bills from making it to the House floor.
But far from just being a committee that would make recommendations concerning the debt ceiling, the body is now to be granted "even greater super powers, according to multiple news reports and congressional aides with knowledge of the plan," writes Michael McAuliff.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) pulled no punches in making it plain that the Super Congress would have supreme authority. "The joint committee — there are no constraints," Reid said on the Senate floor. "They can look at any program we have in government, any program. … It has the ability to look at everything."
That includes introducing laws to restrict the second amendment, states a Gun Owners of America bulletin, warning that the body would be "a super highway for gun control legislation".

The U.S. Congress is keen on the realm and it has directed the FAA in Segment 2206 on the FESSA of 2016 to "set up a pilot system for airspace hazard mitigation at airports as well as other crucial infrastructure using unmanned plane detection devices.
And the subsequent technological know-how are going to be to acquire a drone which might nuetralize the drone killing unit which it attempts to destroy. It goes on, and on; no finish in sight…
This may be defeated that has a trivial software package update. Just have the vehicle drop back again to magnetic compass + accelerator and barometer readings for the RTB until eventually GPS and/or Manage indicators is often reestablished. I'd be surprised if numerous flight controllers Never do that previously.
A number of what has become mentioned as counter drone technological know-how are not likely counter technology but are just drone detectors.
For navy in-theatre where by RF ability does not make a difference... lock a missile hearth Manage radar onto the drone... it ought to fry the transceiver in a couple seconds if its
Precisely the same could well be true for any drone, If you're able to determine the Handle indicators and know very well what to deliver as being a landing Handle signal, you only overpower the controller's signal with the own that mail the indicators needed to inform the drone to land and it will land.
No, although not as a result of purpose your considering. I didn't see this particular route but I understood the likelihood were being infinite. This is simply not the worst doable circumstance. 200 decades in the past we use to just line up in a large line and shoot guide balls at each other.
Question you require any private shielding. The shape from the "barrel" seems like a yagi antenna, that's a hugely directional get more info antenna using a narrow cone formed transmission arc. The Drone Defender is rated at a highly effective variety of four hundred meters website (quarter mile), so I do not believe It truly is that impressive.
You're not convincing me you believe if not. If you actually do another person should probably just take your computer away. Bob
Question just what the MSRP will probably be for potential federal government buyers, and will it be deemed ITAR? In either case, A further soft-kill tool for force protection measures is a step in the correct path.
Therefor drescherjm is suitable In keeping with this short article. The drone will obey what ever it is actually programmed to try and do in the absence of Command signals, land, hover until It can be from power, regardless of what. But without having GPS it probably won't be able to return house on lack of sign or return towards the controller's site.
Hey, I believed I at the time browse in the former article somewhere when this gun initially arrived to light-weight, that The explanation for this kind of large 25mm diameter bore was to own additional structure space to mount a laser seeker in an HE bullet tip, for being guided by a laser designator–the last word one particular shot eliminate at outstanding distances! –No?? Did this not get produced? Or are we not currently being instructed? Stefan S.
Just consider how insane that was. I'm heading to face in a single place and cargo my gun for 15 seconds wile 300 other Gentlemen fifty yards absent do exactly the same matter. They didn't even halt performing that after the Gatling gun was invented!
That would be a very tall purchase, specified the variety of drones and control strategies available. Further, even though even higher-end drones at this time have weak Manage encryption, the quite appearance of equipment such as DroneDefender is certain to cause better requirements.

Sunday morning and about 300 people turned up at the new altar of BPAC whose grandmasters decided, after the debacle of the Bangalore South debate, to display some toughness of their own.
This time, the debate of the four major parties was not wholly public. Details were circulated among a chosen few who had to display their invites and photo IDs to get in to the hall. Dozens of vigilant volunteers had diligent plans from entry to seating and everything went off like clockwork.
Candidates were asked four questions in turns and had four minutes each to answer them. Audience questions were pooled and read out at the end, with no room for slanging matches. At one point when BJP's PC Mohan and Congress's Rizwan Arshad locked horns, K Jairaj, former bureaucrat and one of BPAC's big daddies, went so far as to order that their microphones be muted!
Why do they consider themselves good candidates, what do they offer and what is their vision for Bangalore were the broad themes addressed by the candidates. The incumbent MP Mohan claimed that he had worked to get the metro, and to add bus stations, to increase water supply and to upgrade the railway station.
Nandini Alva introduced a curious new term – essential Bangalorean, and spoke more in general terms. Bala made hard-hitting points about the fact that the Parliamentary elections having become centred on municipal issues as the local bodies had failed to deliver. To applause from the audience,he promised to press for the swaraj model to empower local wards, better implementation of law and honest governance.
Young Rizwan's speech was constantly interrupted by spontaneous bursts of applause from the audience, who did not baulk at Jairaj's remonstrations to restrain themselves. Rizwan had an answer for everything: like the others, he too wants a cleaner, safer city with less traffic. He would implement his own ideas, as well as the good ideas of his opponents.About corruption, he said that the Congress had to be given credit for The Right to Information Act which led to exposure of scams. He also took pride in the Aadhaar project which had enabled timely delivery of benefits to people. As this was not a homogeneous constituency, he would create a Vision Group for this constituency to come out with specific solutions for different areas.
Verdict: Both Bala and Rizwan made convincing statements; Mohan was defensive, Alva on a different wave length. If votes were counted on the rounds and decibel today, we would have to give it to the Congress.

The Planets
A Musical Odyssey of Evolution,
Environment and Exploration
This event has been sold out.
Explore the mystic and the scientific in this unique presentation, in which the Hart House Orchestra plays excerpts from Holst's The Planets, interspersed with talks by Dr. Alan Jackson, University of Toronto, Centre for Planetary Sciences and Dr. Matt Russo, University of Toronto Centre for Theoretical Astrophysics about planetary science in 2017.
A century ago, Gustav Holst had seven planets to inspire his composition, The Planets. Holst evoked the planets' astrological characteristics, assigned in the distant past by sky watchers trying to make sense of their world. As Holst looked back, astronomers were busy looking up with telescopes, photography and spectroscopy, collecting data, testing ideas and uncovering the true nature of the planets. In the 1960s, space travel launched a steady stream of metal ambassadors and, with them, virtual human exploration. Then, just over 20 years ago, astronomers spied the first planets orbiting other stars. The known world count has swollen since then into the thousands.
When: Sun., Oct. 29, 2017, 3-5 pm

When I put a meal together I usually try and theme all the food around the same nationality. The other day we decided to grill some Spicy Thai Chicken Satay with Grilled Pineapple. This spicy hot dish called for something cool as a side dish, so I decided to whip up a salad using a mix of Asian and other known vegetables.
In preparation, I headed to the local Ralph's grocery store to browse the Asian produce section. I picked up Napa Cabbage to use as the base for the salad. Napa Cabbage has a long shape and closely packed, pale green leaves attached to wide white stems. It has a delicate mustard-like flavor which marries perfectly with other vegetables.
Adding sugar snap peas, carrots, and small Japanese cucumber to the cart I had a good start. I also added some sweetness to the salad with mandarin oranges. I'm a sucker for those baby oranges! Adding a little garnish or cilantro and chow mien noodles for crunch the Simple Asian Salad was born.
Top this off with you favorite Asian dressing. We used Girard's Chinese Chicken Salad dressing, which I love. It's lighter and a little more sweet than the typical sesame based dressing.
Simple Asian Salad is the perfect side dish to spicy food. I would also make a great lunch entrée. You could even add chicken or beef to the salad for extra protein if you'd like.
Simple Asian Salad
4 oz. sugar snap peas (or snow peas), chopped
1/3 cup carrots, shredded
2-3 Japanese or Persian cucumbers, halved lengthwise and sliced
3 oz mandarin oranges
2 Tbls cilantro, chopped
handful of chow mien noodles for garnish
2-3 Tbls Girard's Chinese chicken salad dressing
In a large bowl add cabbage, snap peas, carrots, cucumbers and mandarin oranges. Toss to mix. Top with cilantro and chow mien noodles. Drizzle salad dressing over the top and serve.

The McGowan Labor Government's Jobs Bill passed through the Legislative Council this week, ensuring Western Australians will get a bigger share of work on good and services provided by the State Government.
The Jobs Bill was a key election commitment designed to support local businesses to tender for government contracts, creating more jobs for local workers.
Under the new laws, local businesses will be given more opportunities to compete for government contracts, particularly in the area of infrastructure.
Prospective suppliers of government contracts will now be required to submit local participation plans as part of their tender. These plans will then be incorporated into the contracts of successful suppliers to ensure the promised local jobs are delivered.
The Bill includes a requirement for a Western Australian Industry Participation Strategy to guide the implementation of the new laws. As part of the development of the strategy, WA's local content policies and guidelines are being reviewed.
The new laws also allow the government to declare a major project a 'project of strategic significance for the WA economy' to create more opportunities for local content.

Keeping a pet healthy and happy used to involve nothing more than quality food, regular vet checks and attention. But why stop there when so many cool gadgets for pets are now available? Here are our favourite, innovative tools.
FroliCat Bolt
Laser pointers and cats are an entertaining combination. FroliCat Bolt will play with your feline and generate random laser patterns onto floors and walls, enticing him to pounce, chase and bat at the red dot—a great way to get some exercise. The device automatically shut off after 15 minutes so the novelty doesn't fade.
Developed by bio-medical engineers, dog experts and Cornell University, Voyce is a waterproof sensor-laden smart collar which monitors and collects data about your dog's rest, activity levels, calories burned as well as heart and respiratory rates. This data syncs with a mobile platform and website over Wi-Fi, giving you the ability to track your pooch's health over time as well as share it with a vet. A monthly subscription fee gives you access to personalized health and behaviour advice.
If your dog likes to roam or is prone to escaping a kennel or fence, Tagg is the ticket. It's a GPS-enabled device that attaches to your dog's collar and alerts you via text message and email if your pooch leaves the area in which he's supposed to be. You can determine his exact location via the Tagg website or a mobile app.
If fish are your thing you can use creatures such as snails or catfish to clean algae from a tank but where and when they'll work is up to them. Instead, install a robot!
The RoboSnail is an automated aquarium glass cleaner invented by an aquarium keeper who designed it to clean the aquarium's surface once a day without you having to do anything, an excellent preventative feature considering algae is increasingly difficult to remove the longer it remains on the tank's glass.

Concrete Countertops
Thousands of Americans enjoy remodeling or updating their kitchen's style and appeal during the summer and fall months. One of the best ways to transform the entire ambiance of your kitchen is by installing concrete countertops. With their smooth and variable design, concrete countertops surpass the modes of fashion because they are always in vogue. Easy to maintain and a lifelong investment, concrete countertops are the perfect idea for styling your kitchen. More than just aesthetic appeal, concrete countertops come with numerous benefits which help facilitate an easier way of life and can save you thousands of dollars in the future.
Thinking sandy gray materials? Think again. Concrete countertops come in all colors, designs, and fashions. Depending on the amount of space in your kitchenette, craftsmen can design concrete countertops with strong pillars, dye the concrete to match or add fusion to your kitchen, include marble swirl, or any custom design that meets your preference.
While Concrete countertops can be made and installed through DIY methods, it's highly recommended to seek professional help. Professionals can measure, cut and install your concrete countertops in record timing and without any mistakes. Should any errors incur, a professional covers and repairs the damage as opposed to the DIY method.
Prices can be affordable, depending on the size of your kitchen space. However, concrete countertops are among the best investments one can make for their home, as it greatly appeals to new buyers, and avoids spontaneous costs in the future. Seeking to get a rate or estimate on concrete countertops? The process is simple and easy. Most hardware stores provide a series of catalog designs for the curious buyer, as well as craftsmen on hand who are ready and willing to meet your needs. The company you choose can also vary the price, but the final result will be worth the price.
Concrete countertops are easy to clean. Their sealed surfaces can be wiped clean with a rag or sponge saturated with soapy water. If there are deeper stains that need to be dealt with, various specialized cleaners can be used. Care must be taken to insure that these cleaners are compatible with any sealers or colorants the countertop may contain.
