If you want to know why?
The previous ramblings I wrote were the "why" I am doing this. If you are interested take a quick read of
References and prior reading
Pipelines, Frames, Protocols
I am using the new .Net Pipelines that are part of corefxLab (which means the cheese moves a lot). Generally the structure for a pipelines library would look like this
A pipeline is basically a reader and a writer with a nice buffer pool in the middle. There is more to it and I am minimizing the effort put in here around buffer ownership and the push pull relationship but for our purposes that is not important. So this would work really well if we were doing a simple compression pipeline. But TLS is more complex than that. We have to think of security and information leak, and TLS has more than one framing.
Turtles all the way down
First lets talk about the record layer in TLS. There is a header with a length, a message type and a protocol version. The protocol version has over time become mostly redundant. Old and broken proxies can't cope with an increased version number. If you want to negotiate with an older implementation it might reject you if the version is also too high. So we have a frame from the record layer, we unwrap (and decrypt if needed) and now we have our message, right?
Wrong! A message inside the record layer can span multiple frames, a handshake message for instance has a 24bit unsigned int as it's length, but the record layer uses a 16bit unsigned int. That means that something like a certificate chain which can be a large handshake message can be across multiple frames. Not only that but we are more than likely to put multiple handshake messages in a single frame to reduce the number of actual packets and overheads we need to use.
For application frames we will always pass it back up to the consumer frame by frame so that will work with the current model. Ideally I would like to be able to "store" unwrapped messages (if they are handshakes) until we have a complete message. Currently I could hold a list, but that would require allocating a list and change all of the code to use a "list" of readable buffers. I am hoping that the corefxlab team can give me a readable buffer that I can attach another to the end of (linked list?).
Issue link for adding readable buffers to other buffers without allocation
The way of solving this issue for now, a second internal channel for handshake messages. So we end up with something like
Explaining the diagram in more details. We have the socket on the left which is where our encrypted (or at the start of the connection unencrypted) data comes in off the wire. We then decrypt and unwrap the record frame. At this point a simple decision is made, is this an application layer frame or in internal (Alert or Handshake). If so it is redirected over another pipe. Here we can have another async loop that is making sure we can unwrap an entire message. That is where (the black hex) the connection state machine lives.
We still have one major problem (that I can see, can you?) with this design. We have a single pool of buffers that the application code is writing to, and the sockets are consuming from. That means in the same buffers at any time their could be cipher text or plain text. This is a common design, that I have seen over and over with say SslStream it decrypts/encrypts the data in place.
The problem with this is, what happens if encryption fails but the buffer for whatever reason gets sent? So the final headline architecture, a separate buffer pool for the plain text side and the cipher text. This should provide some protection from accidentally pushing plain text out to the socket, or the socket overrunning into some plain text buffer. When we encrypt or decrypt data we will write the result directly onto a buffer on the clear text side.
Show me the code
As discussed in previous articles I am going ot have a "listener" over the top, that you configure and setup with cipher suites, certificates etc.
public class SecurePipelineListener : IDisposable
private CryptoProvider _cryptoProvider;
private PipelineFactory _factory;
private CertificateList _certificateList;
private KeyScheduleProvider _keyscheduleProvider;
private ResumptionProvider _resumptionProvider;
private bool _allowTicketResumption;
private ServerNameProvider _serverNameProvider;
public SecurePipelineListener(PipelineFactory factory, CertificateList certificateList)
_factory = factory;
_serverNameProvider = new ServerNameProvider();
_keyscheduleProvider = new KeyScheduleProvider();
_cryptoProvider = new CryptoProvider();
_resumptionProvider = new ResumptionProvider(4, _cryptoProvider);
_certificateList = certificateList;
public SecurePipelineConnection CreateSecurePipeline(IPipelineConnection pipeline)
return new SecurePipelineConnection(pipeline, _factory, this);
That's it a container for settings. At the moment they are all hard coded in there but at a later date we will replace it with the ability to actually configure it at runtime.
So now to get a connection we can use a simple code block like this
using (var factory = new PipelineFactory())
using (var list = new CertificateList())
var thumb = "MYTHUMPRINT";
using (var serverContext = new SecurePipelineListener(factory, list))
using (var socketClient = new System.IO.Pipelines.Networking.Sockets.SocketListener(factory))
var ip = IPAddress.Any;
var port = 443;
var ipEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(ip, port);
socketClient.OnConnection(async s =>
var sp = serverContext.CreateSecurePipeline(s);
await ServerLoop.HandleConnection(sp);
And that's it, we need at least one certificate (we will get to multiple certificates later), setup a port and away we go.
Inside the SecurePipeline code the constructor looks like this
public SecurePipelineConnection(IPipelineConnection pipeline, PipelineFactory factory, SecurePipelineListener listener)
_listener = listener;
_lowerConnection = pipeline;
_outputPipe = factory.Create();
_inputPipe = factory.Create();
_handshakePipe = factory.Create();
_handshakeOutpipe = factory.Create();
public IPipelineReader Input => _outputPipe;
public IPipelineWriter Output => _inputPipe;
This shows the explosion of pipes that we need to be able to handle the internal unwinding of the frames. We map the input to the output for the application, well because it makes the internal code clearer (reading from an output seems odd and pipelines is structured in reverse). So we have a "connection" and the overall settings. We can start to take a look at the higher level state machine that we use for reading data from the socket (or other pipeline).
while (true)
var result = await _lowerConnection.Input.ReadAsync();
var buffer = result.Buffer;
ReadableBuffer messageBuffer;
while (RecordProcessor.TryGetFrame(ref buffer, out messageBuffer))
var recordType = RecordProcessor.ReadRecord(ref messageBuffer, _state);
if (_state == null)
if (recordType != RecordType.Handshake)
Alerts.AlertException.ThrowAlert(Alerts.AlertLevel.Fatal, Alerts.AlertDescription.unexpected_message, "Requre a handshake for first message");
_state = VersionStateFactory.GetNewStateMachine(messageBuffer, _listener);
That's a good place to stop and discuss some of the design decisions that are showing up already. We have no internal state machine when a connection is made. Instead we call out to a factory that will look at the initial handshake and decide the highest version that the client supports. If the client doesn't support any version we support the factory will take care of throwing the appropriate exception. Through out the library I have attempted to throw exceptions early and mostly fail on anything going wrong. This is to avoid trying to "recover" as we are in a security context and recovery leads to unexpected hacks.
The next part is why the factory anyway? A number of the TLS/SSL libraries suffer from large amounts of "if version x do y". This makes it very hard to understand the exact flow of the code for a specific version. By separating the code at this early stage we can then go and look at the exact flow of a TLS 1.2 connection for instance and compare the behaviour to the specs and to known issues.
Finally if you watched the S2N video from the first article you can see the logic I am trying to use (when possible) is to test something and exit, this reduces the depth of the branches and makes it easier to understand for example we could instead of above do this
while (true)
var result = await _lowerConnection.Input.ReadAsync();
var buffer = result.Buffer;
ReadableBuffer messageBuffer;
while (RecordProcessor.TryGetFrame(ref buffer, out messageBuffer))
var recordType = RecordProcessor.ReadRecord(ref messageBuffer, _state);
if (_state == null)
if (recordType == RecordType.Handshake)
//throw exception because it wasn't a Handshake
Already the code is nested enough with the while true and the try catches we don't need to add to the problem.
From here we either push the unencrypted and unwrapped data onto our output pipe (the applications input pipe) or if it is a handshake, alert or change cipher spec onto the state machines input pipe and tell the state machine to process it.
Next up, the secrets…shhhh.

Communities where Christ is least known
Muslim Peoples in Southern Philippines
Islam is the second largest religion in the country, with about 5.1 million followers as of 2010 (according to the National Statistics Office). There are 14 Muslim groups in the Philippines, all originating from Mindanao. Each has a unique culture, but all share the same faith mixed with animistic practices. For years they have been fighting for their autonomy from the Philippine government. Failure of peace talks in the past have resulted in armed conflict, causing death and displacement of people.
Pray that the ongoing peace talks will lead to a peaceful ceasefire. Pray that through the creative ministries of SIM Philippines and other partners, more Muslim peoples will come to know the Prince of Peace.
Migrant Muslim peoples
The establishment of the Islamic Center in 1964 spurred a number of mosques to be built and Muslim communities to blossom around these centres in Manila. The increase in the number of Muslims migrating to Manila and other cities was primarily to flee from the continued armed conflict in Mindanao. Others came to seek better lives through employment, business, and studies. In partnership with like-minded organisations and churches, SIM Philippines has been serving in five urban communities in Metro Manila and a community outside of Manila, ministering through children, youth and livelihood ministries.
Pray for disciple-making efforts and the fellowship of Muslim background believers. Pray that these believers grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus.
Pray for the livelihood initiatives to prosper and bring holistic Christian transformation to Muslim families and communities.
Pray for more workers and protection and fruitfulness of SIM Philippines' missionaries in various ministries. Pray for team unity, humility, and sensitivity to God's leading.
Pray for the international students ministry and other migrant ministries. Pray for creative ways for the foreigners in our backyard to be welcomed and hear the gospel.
Pray for more workers, and for the protection and fruitfulness of SIM Philippines' missionaries in various ministries. Pray for team unity, perseverance, humility, and sensitivity to God's leading.
Pray for more Filipino churches and individuals to engage in Muslim ministries and in sending and caring for missionaries.
Pray for ongoing efforts to mobilise, network, and develop good partnerships.

With Halloween quickly approaching, I thought I would share 10 scary things about how we eat in America. Who needs ghosts, ghouls and monsters for a fright when you have these statistics?
1. More than 1 billion tons of pesticide products are used each year in the United States alone, many of which are directly sprayed on our food. Pesticides have been linked to a variety of cancers and higher rates of birth defects.
2. Americans spend more than $100 billion on fast food each year.
3. The average teenage boy in the U.S. gets 10 percent of his daily calories from soda.
4. We now have more than double the rate of obesity in American children compared to the 1970s.
5. Obesity increased in 16 states last year and didn't decrease in any state.
6. Another 2.6 million people fell below the poverty level last year. This often directly affects their ability to buy healthy food.
7. American children get about one quarter of their total vegetable servings in the form of potato chips and French fries.
8. We consume an average of 156 pounds of sugar every year.
9. Up to 10 billion donuts are consumed each year in the U.S. alone.
10. Genetically modified foods are found in up to 80 percent of our packaged foods in the U.S. A Russian study concluded that after three generations of eating GM feed, hamsters lost their ability to reproduce and some even had a rare disorder of hair growing in their mouths. I find that disturbing.
Let's work towards better stats in the coming year with lower pesticide use, lower obesity rates, less dependence on fast foods and sugary foods, and better labeling for GMOs in our food supply.

Movie Review: Justice League (2017) – They Should've Kept The BEARD!
Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, now we have the fifth installment in the current DCEU in Justice League.
Gotta be honest with you, I completely shut off everything about the film. Trailers, interviews, ads, early reviews, EVERYTHING. I didn't want to be spoiled, I didn't want to expect anything except a superhero movie with Batman and Wonder Woman in it.
And I got it.
Movie Review: Batman v Superman
This is a really late post as I watched the film last March 26. Reason for the late post is due to a really hectic schedule concerning my work as a freelance writer. I'm sure everyone knows what critics and fans think of the film.
On one side are people who thought the movie was too dark, gritty, serious, lacked storytelling structure, and "not like Marvel." On the other side are people who are more than pleased with Snyder's Justice League prequel and are ready to duke it out with naysayers anytime of day.
I'm not a fan of the comic book series, I'm not a fan of the Justice League series. What I am is a fan of Batman and this is what a typical Batman fan has to say about Batman v Superman. (more…)
Book Review: The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
After falling for his "Ocean" and "Gods" books, I figured I should read one of Gaiman's more popular works when I saw this on a bookshelf in some random bookstore.
I've kept this book hidden since May this year, often reading what I initially saw as more "exciting" books in my previous book reviews. While I did have joy in reading those books, I believe I felt as if I betrayed myself by putting this book on hold for such a long time.
This book is simply amazing. I've never read anything quite like it. Gaiman states he drew inspiration from The Jungle Book, which is about a child raised by animals. Truth be told, this book does share an awful lot of similarity with its inspiration but it's nothing short of original and witty when it comes to delivery and concept.
Book Review: Haruki Murakami's Kafka On The Shore
This will be a quick review as I barely have time to write today.
It's been a while since I read Murakami but I always did put him on my "authors to follow" list. You can find my review of Norwegian Wood here and 1Q84 here.
Anyway, as with most of Murakami novels, this one plays with both reality and the metaphysical. It's funny how this book was slow to begin with but upon reading further, I realized it must've been exactly how Murakami wanted the novel to be read. I'm not talking about slow-paced books like Umberto Eco's The Name Of The Rose (I've read it but never really got around to reviewing it) or at least his 1Q84.
Movie Review: The Avengers: Age of Ultron (Avengers 2)
I just watched this film and I had my hopes way, way up specially since it's an all-star cast and it's one of the best film franchises in history. I mean, it's a superhero movie made by one of the best superhero movie makers. The bar is already set high when you think back to the first Avengers film. I'm going to say it now: This film surpasses the first one in all aspects. You could go there and set your standards high and you wouldn't think the film would go beyond it. (more…)
Book Review: Firefight by Brandon Sanderson (Reckoners #2)
Review of Steelheart a.k.a. Reckoners #1
This book came to me as a surprise. I finished reviewing this book and shortly realized I ran out of books to read. Well, good books for my taste.
I went about my usual day at the mall, browsing for books when I remembered Firefight was supposed to come out in January ( I read about it in my daily Goodreads newsletter) but I never really thought about looking for it yet since it was still just recently launched.
Nonetheless, my eyes widened when I saw the book glaring at me. Lo and behold, it was the last copy too as I took a few minutes looking for other copies just to see if I can grab a fresher book (I'm strict with book preservation). I didn't even hesitate to buy this book. I immediately fell in line at the nearest cashier and moments later, I'm inside Starbucks reading this book fresh from the plastic. I'm not even afraid to admit that I sniff books particularly when old and newly bought.
With regards to my review, it will be quick and short as the time I have to type it down is not as long as I want it to be. It's getting late here and I have work (and a workout) in the morning. I also have to play Civilization: Beyond Earth and I'm probably the country's biggest Civ fan since I started playing Civilization III when I was just 10 years old.
Book Review: Generation A By Douglas Coupland
I picked this book from a bargain sale a few weeks back. The synopsis intrigued me and I figured even if the book was bad, at least I got it for like 80% off. I mean, I've had my share of bad books but they weren't all totally a waste of money since I then knew that those types of books don't appeal to me.
The book isn't too long as it barely had 300 pages and the writing style wasn't so slow for a typical novel. The chapters were pretty short and most of them would definitely have you be interested as to what the whole problem with the story was about. It focused on the narrative point of view of five people which says something of how the author has managed to make them be individuals despite having them come out of the same head.

Thirty: Coincidence February 16, 2014Posted by The Typist in 365, New Orleans, The Narrative, The Typist, Toulouse Street.
Tags: 365, Catch-22, Page of Wands, Yossarian
add a comment
I have lost all faith
In coincidence
And marvel in horror
at the dark clockwork
of the stars.
I found this in a plastic bag in the immense bag of beads my sister gave me for the parade. It looked as if it were from a special throw bag, the sort people assemble for the friends you rarely can find as Krewe du Vieux rolls through the quarter much to quickly. I laid it aside to contemplate later.
The Page of Wands is a younger, less mature cousin to The Fool. "The Page of Wands is a well-dressed young man who stands alone in the midst of a barren wilderness, talking out loud of his dreams and desires. This scene indicates that much of the Page's creative energy is still very much only a potential or, at best, only an idea. He holds his staff upwards and looks to it with confidence. His shirt is covered with the design of salamanders, a mythical creature that is associated with fire and transformation," one web site tells me. "He has a true passion for life, despite his understanding of this world is not yet fully developed. He has not yet been weighed down by the burdens of the material world, coming and going as he pleases, and usually encouraging change wherever he goes."
The card is not me, unless it is a much younger version of myself. I cannot tell from this one card alone if it is a messenger of encouragement in my current journey, or a warning that I am being little-L foolish, dreaming of writing programs as I come to the end of my degree, ignoring the responsibilities of my age and prior choices. There are people who depend on me, and I can't get that out of my head as I try coast through my unemployment benefit until I graduate in May. Passing on what most would consider a well-paying job at Moloch was a considered decision, but one I insistently question. I am weary of that work. "His shirt is covered with the design of salamanders, a mythical creature that is associated with fire and transformation." I am ready for a transformation. My strange seven year cycle of careers, one leading inevitably to the next, has led me to a dead end, and I lingered two long in the world of Moloch: twice seven years and then some.
Whether the card is an oracular messenger or a warning is beyond me to divine. I have always been drawn to The Fool, his eyes on the sky with this bindle of wisdom over his shoulder, ready to step over the cliff. I keep going back to Catch-22 the film, the existential dilemma, the silly Chinese finger tube of responsibility.
MAJOR MAJOR: How do you feel?
YOSSARIAN: Fine. No, I'm frightened.
MAJOR MAJOR: That's good. It proves you're still alive…
You'll have to jump.
YOSSARIAN: I'll jump.
MAJOR MAJOR: Jump!

Volume 11, Issue 3
April 17, 2012
In the April 11, 2012 edition of the Kamer Zucker Abbott Employer Report, we reported that employers who are covered by the National Labor Relations Act would be required to post a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) notice regarding employees' rights in their workplaces beginning April 30, 2012. As of this afternoon, however, the effective date for posting the NLRB notice has been postponed once again. Earlier today, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia issued an order enjoining the NLRB from enforcing its rule, which would have required most private employers to post a notice informing employees of their rights under the National Labor Relations Act on April 30. In light of the Court's order, NLRB Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce issued a press release this afternoon announcing that the Board's Regional Offices will not implement the rule pending resolution of the issues before the Court. As a result, employers are no longer required to post this notice as of April 30. Kamer Zucker Abbott will continue to monitor this matter, and advise if and when a new posting date is established. Please feel free to contact Kamer Zucker Abbott with any questions you may have.

If you are renting an apartment or a house, it is important to make sure that you have Insurance for not only protection of your belongings, but against any type of damage to the building in which you will be held responsible. A contents Insurance policy includes this type of Liability protection. Remember to always choose the highest liability you can buy. The cost is very affordable and will give you peace of mind. The cost of a contents policy including the liability is next to nothing if you look at what a lawsuit, with court and lawyers fees would cost.
There are many people who feel that since they don't own a home, or feel they do not have that much to insure, don't give it a second thought. They do not want to spend the money for something they may not even use. If you can take 10 minutes to walk around your home and write down what you have, you will probably be surprised how much you do have. Below, there is a small list of items we use everyday. If you put a price on each item and add it up, would you have the money to replace them.
Table and Chairs
Couch/Sofa & chairs
Fridge, stove, microwave
Plasma TV's and all electronics
The list above is only the normal everyday items in your home. It does not include the items in your child's room, jewelry, fine arts or collections. Even the basics like pots, pans, cups,saucers, silverware barbeque, and lawn furniture. There is a inventory booklet on our site that you can print of and do the walk around to get an idea of what the approximate value of your possessions are in your home.
One of the most important types of coverage that is included in a content insurance policy is "Living Expense". The name may differ with other insurers, but the coverage is the same. This coverage is going to give you a place to stay until you can move back into your home. It also will pay for, travel expenses for taxi's, motels, meals, clothing, and any other everyday needs. I cannot imagine being unable to go home with a small child or baby.
Most policies cover you for fire, theft, vandalism, wind or water damage. These are just as few of the perils covered by your Insurance Company. Most insurers often include coverage for personal belongings worldwide. That is great news for travelers. If you are concerned about expensive items like jewelry, call us and check to see if there is a limit on it. It could be unlimited, but if there is a maximum limit, you can usually purchase more coverage at an additional premium.
There could possibly be a discount if you your contents with the same Company.
Come visit InsuranceMarket and we'll help you put together a home insurance policy as well as the supporting documents that you should have in order to have your home financially secured.

Scorching heat blistered the Southwest on Saturday, where highs between 115 and 130 degrees are expected for parts of Arizona, Nevada and California through the weekend.
At 115 degrees, the temperatures in sun-baked Las Vegas fell just shy of the all-time record, but broke the daily record of 114 degrees. Phoenix hit 119 degrees by mid-afternoon, breaking the record for June 29 that was set in 1994. And large swaths of California sweltered under extreme heat warnings, which are expected to last into Tuesday night — and maybe even longer.
Dan Kail was vacationing in Las Vegas when he heard that the temperature at California's Death Valley could approach 130 degrees this weekend. He didn't hesitate to make a trip to the desert location that is typically the hottest place on the planet.
"Coming to Death Valley in the summertime has always been on the top of my bucket list," the 67-year-old Pittsburgh man said. "When I found out it might set a record I rented a car and drove straight over. If it goes above 130 I will have something to brag about."
Death Valley hit 124 degrees Saturday as part of a heat wave that has caused large parts of the western U.S. to suffer. Its record high of 134 degrees, set a century ago, stands as the highest temperature ever recorded on Earth.
A couple hours south in Baker, Calif., the temperature was expected to peak at 120 degrees in the road tripper's oasis in the Mojave Desert on I-15. The strip of gas stations and restaurants between Los Angeles and Las Vegas is known by travelers for the giant thermometer that often notes temperatures in the triple digits.
At Baker's Mad Greek restaurant, a waitress called out orders for "Chocolate shake! Strawberry shake!" while the temperature hovered at 112 degrees during the lunch rush.
In Northern California, temperatures Saturday reached the 80s in San Francisco, upper 90s in San Jose and into the triple digits inland, about 20 degrees above typical highs in the Bay area.
Farther north, triple-digit temps were expected in Sacramento on Saturday and today.
Health officials warned people to be extremely careful when venturing outdoors. The risks include not only dehydration and heat stroke but burns from the concrete and asphalt. Dogs can suffer burns and blisters on their paws by walking on hot pavement.
Cooling stations were set up to shelter the homeless and elderly people who can't afford to run their air conditioners. In Phoenix, Joe Arpaio, the famously hard-nosed sheriff who runs a tent jail, planned to distribute ice cream and cold towels to inmates.
Officials said personnel were added to the Border Patrol's search-and-rescue unit because of the danger to people trying to slip across the Mexican border. At least seven people have been found dead in the last week in Arizona after falling victim to the brutal desert heat.
Temperatures also soared across Utah and into Wyoming and Idaho, with triple-digit heat forecast for the Boise area. Cities in Washington state that are better known for cool, rainy weather should break the 90s this week.
The heat was so punishing that rangers took up positions at trailheads at Lake Mead in Nevada to persuade people not to hike. Zookeepers in Phoenix hosed down the elephants and fed tigers frozen fish snacks. Dogs were at risk of burning their paws on scorched pavement, and airlines kept close watch on the heat for fear that it could cause flights to be delayed.

Bourgogne Randonnée : Le Prestige de la Voie des Vignes - de Dijon à Beaune
Hiking at Dijon
Dijon, the capital of Burgundy, whose heritage is based on its wine and medieval heritage, is the starting point for this wine-scented tour that will take you to Beaune via the small villages for which the Côtes de Beaune and Côtes de Nuits are so renowned: Vosne-Romanée, Gevrey Chambertin, Nuits Saint Georges, Beaune, Meursault...

Arrive in the capital of the Dukes of Burgundy.
Overnight and breakfast.
Day 2: Dijon - Gevrey Chambertin (16 km)
Pass Lake Kir and on through a nice little valley. Why not stop at Château de Marsannay for a tasting? Then continue your journey into the vineyards of Burgundy with Gevrey-Chambertin, its fortress transformed by the abbots of Cluny into a "strong cellar", where their best Chambolle-Musigny - Clos Vougeot - Vosne-Romanée wines slowly aged, along with their famous vintage once coveted by Madame de Pompadour - Nuits-St-Georges.
Dinner and overnight stay
Day 3: Gevrey-Chambertin - Nuit Saint Georges (16 km)

David is the business owner of "House of The Phone", one of the leading online store providing mobile phones to end-users. Unfortunately, the website was hacked and the business was badly affected.
His web developers do not have the expertise in conducting web security assessment and fix the vulnerabilities. Therefore, David chosen ZEBRAGUARD | Scan which is highly recommended by some trusted source.
Now, David has two options on ZEBRAGUARD | Scan plans. He can opt for one time scanning or annual subscription to enjoy exclusive and lower rate. However, taking into the consideration the fact that the website is a dynamic website with constant update and added features, David decided to go for annual subscription plan with monthly assessment.
After David providing the URL and login details, Condition Zebra technician will handle the configuration and provide David a login details to ZEBRAGUARD | Scan Metrics and Data Centre. With the login, David is to login to manage the scanning schedule and check the latest status of the scanning with the reported vulnerabilities.

Once the scanning complete, ZEBRAGUARD | Scan "Security Assessment Centre" will verify and analyze the vulnerabilities. The tested and verified vulnerabilities will be updated to David's account. Each vulnerability is equipped with comprehensive analysis such as the URL, threat categories, proof of concept and recommended solution.
With the report provided by ZEBRAGUARD | Scan, David has the option to get his in-house team to fix the vulnerabilities.

In order to have the best result out of this campaign, David has opted for Condition Zebra to fix the vulnerabilities of his website.
After the incident, David's business is back to normal and he has practiced to conduct a monthly scanning on his website to ensure the security of his website and the safety of his online customers.

Syracuse, N.Y. -- Brandon Triche has been around long enough now to recognize the smell of bad fish when it passes through the Syracuse University basketball program. So when he got his latest noseful of it at the start of the weekend, he reached for his handy clothespin.
And then he almost certainly shrugged.
"It's something different every year," said Triche, with a weary smile, Saturday afternoon. "Our team is built on adversity. My freshman year, it was AO. My sophomore year, I'm not even sure what it was. My junior year it was part Bernie Fine and then Fab. This year, for now, it's James."
James. As in James Southerland, the senior forward who watched the Orange's 72-61 victory over Villanova at the Carrier Dome in civvies after having been declared ineligible the evening before for reasons unexplained. The upshot? Triche's annual whiff of the odorous has continued uninterrupted. In order:
-- "AO" was Arinze Onuaku, the SU center who went down with the knee injury during the NCAA Tournament that likely cost Syracuse a berth in the 2010 Final Four.
-- "Bernie Fine" was the long-time Orange aide who was tossed through the doors in the fall of 2011 after having been accused of murky behavior with former ballboys.
-- "Fab" was the SU big man whose academic issues forced him out of uniform for the 2012 Tournament and almost certainly led to Syracuse's loss to Ohio State in the Elite 8.
-- "James" is the Orange's second-leading scorer and its best shooter . . . and on this 13th day of 2013, he sits. For how long and for what reason, nobody of importance is willing to say.
That is what you call a fairly consistent, if periodic, cloud cover. And in SU's case, it comes with a particular aroma, even if Triche -- who has started 124 consecutive contests in the Orange backcourt and thus has developed a fair amount of resistance -- didn't seem terribly affected by it on Saturday.
"One thing about Syracuse, we go nine or 10 deep," he offered. "So losing one guy means somebody else gets the opportunity to do well. I'm not concerned. I've got trust in the guys already there. And I've got trust in my young guys that they'll go out there a play hard and produce.
"Overall, we don't have any bad players, which is the other team's problem. We have players who aren't playing only because something else is a senior or something like that. So I think we should be fine. We'd definitely benefit if James was there, but I don't think this will be too much of a hurdle."
Triche, the senior who has been forever difficult to rile, was doing his best Alfred E. Neuman impression. And as his SU clubs are 90 games over .500 (107-17) during his career and have lost just 11 regular-season affairs across all that time, he probably has a right to figure, as he does, "What? Me worry?"
So, he doesn't.
And on Saturday, anyway, neither did Jim Boeheim, the Orange coach who can be as much a pragmatist as he can be a contrarian, and he's world class in each role.
"We gotta play the guys who can play," he declared. "That's all we can do."
The Syracuse bunch did precisely that against Villanova, turning to Jerami Grant, Trevor Cooney and Dajuan Coleman -- all freshmen -- for a total of 61 minutes, during which the rookies combined for 25 points, nine rebounds and three steals. And inspired huzzahs from the Dome crowd of 27,586.
And they did this only 65 hours, give or take, after Boeheim had suggested in Providence -- upon letting them run the floor against the Friars for a cumulative six minutes -- that such was beyond their youthful, if talented, grasp.
"It's, like, do you want to win or do you want to play those guys?" he announced back on Wednesday evening. "I always choose winning over the other. We wouldn't have won if we'd have played those young guys . . . tonight. We needed those other guys in there the whole time. They either understand that or they call home and complain."
Ah, but out of necessity, things change. And on Saturday, with the 6-foot-8 Southerland on the shelf and with the 6-4 Triche saddled with four early fouls . . . well, Boeheim was forced to become the father of invention. So he pointed a bony finger at Grant, Cooney and Coleman, told them in essence that SU suddenly couldn't win without them . . . and down went overmatched Villanova, which hung tough for a while (and actually led by four points early in the second half) before fading and flying back to Philly.
But soon-to-be-second-ranked Louisville does loom next weekend. In Louisville. And James Southerland, without whom the Orange is a gang that can't shoot straight (i.e., .448 from the field), might still be ineligible. And people are fretting.
But not all of them.
"James is a pure shooter, so that takes that element away," Triche allowed. "But Jerami can rebound the ball a little better than James. And this will give Dajuan a little more time. And Trevor is going to play more, too. And I'll probably have to shoot some of the shots that James has been shooting. So I think we'll be all right."
That passing Smell? What passing smell? You know, you get used to things.

Snoop Dogg Net Worth $155 million
Snoop Dogg salary $20,000,000
Snoop Dogg Net Worth: How rich is Snoop Dogg? & How much money is Snoop Dogg worth? Time to find out!
Snoop Dogg is an American rapper and actor and his current net worth is $155 million.
Born in Long Beach, California, as the second of three sons, to Beverly Broadus, and Vernell Varnado, Snoop got his name after his stepfather, Cordozar Calvin Broadus Sr..
Growing up, he received his nickname Snoopy from his parents because of his looks, but they usually called him Calvin at home.
He started singing and playing piano from a young age at the Golgotha Trinity Baptist Church. Only in sixth grade he started rapping.
As a youngster he often ran into trouble with the law, and became a member of the Rollin' 20 Crips gang in the Eastside of Long Beach.
Upon graduating from high school he ran into trouble again and police arrested him for possession of cocaine. In the next three years he spent his time in and out of jail.
Along with his cousins and a friend started to record homemade tapes as a group called 213.
Because of one of their early solo freestyles tapes, influential producer Dr. Dre called them to invite to an audition.
Dr. Dre thought him how to structure his lyrics and separate the thematics into verses, hooks, and chorus.
Upon starting recording he adopted the stage name Snoop Doggy Dogg. He and Dr. Dre started working together, first on the theme song of the film Deep Cover.
Their collaboration continued a while after on Dre's debut solo album, The Chrnic, with the other members of his former band, Tha Dogg Pound.
His success, due to his intense exposure, grew bigger and bigger.
Gangsta rap became the center of his world, and him often used as an example of violent and misogynistic musicians.
His debut album, Doggystyle featured a lot of rappers signed to or affiliated with the Death Row label, including Daz Dillinger, Nate Dogg and others.
In 1995, Snoop launched Doggy Style Records, Inc., a record label founded by him and registered with the California Secretary of State.
Snoop Dogg holds the dubious distinction of having seventeen Grammy nominations without a win. Throughout his career he has since sold over 23 million albums in the United States and 25 million albums worldwide

Probably most people travel to take in the 'awe-inspiring view', the grand image. Half dome in Yosemite for example, or the geysers at Yellowstone. I like those kind of images too, have done a few.
Dante's View – Death Valley
Key's View – Joshua Tree NP
Someplace in Nevada, not on any 'hot list'
But i am also inspired to reach for the camera for some small details, close-ups of things just beneath your feet that you might miss in just a few steps. Here's the shot that kicked off this thought and this blog post, just a few square feet of desert rock, various colored layers, formed over who-knows-how-long-a-time.
Our planet has gone thru changes much more severe than the current 'climate change' thing.
Something like 95+ percent of the species that have ever lived on earth have gone extinct. Incredibly massive changes have taken place, once the land on earth looked like this:
Over eons it broke up, became various continents to become what it is now. All this continental drift caused amazing changes in weather patterns, ocean currents, slow but constant change.
Do some research, it's not hard to do:
"The volcanic basalt beds of the Deccan were laid down in the massive Deccan Traps eruption, which occurred towards the end of the Cretaceous period between 67 and 66 million years ago. Some paleontologists speculate that this eruption may have accelerated the extinction of the dinosaurs. Layer after layer was formed by the volcanic activity that lasted many thousands of years, and when the volcanoes became extinct, they left a region of highlands with typically vast stretches of flat areas on top like a table." Since then it's been eroded to look like this:
Ever been to red rock land in the SW? Same kinda thing going on, massive deposits, millennia of erosion, to become what we see now.
Red Rock Canyon, east of Las Vegas NV
As for the tenacity of life'? … take a look at plants, they find a niche, no matter how small. A shallow indentation that collects what little rain falls is all they need to sink roots, in what appears to be solid rock.
Humans leave their mark in whatever way we can. Sometimes one of us takes on what seems to be a lost cause, and makes a difference:
'Why a historic highway that united California's two halves may never reopen to a car.'
Other times?…downright ugly:
There was a saying 'round about all the protest and social turmoil of the late 60's:
"If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem"
"This Is Our Country. Let's Walk It."
In much of Europe, walking wherever you want is perfectly legal. Not in America.
And you just might find….

5 Things to Help You on Your Zero Waste JourneyKate Stuart
When you are at the beginning of your journey to producing less waste, it feels like a bit of a contradiction to hear that there are things you can buy that will help you along the way. We're meant to be buying less, using less, and throwing away less, right? A lot of what we already have at home will do fine, whether it's plastic or not, and should be used until it reaches the end of it's natural lifespan, but it's all the single use items we get through that can make us feel that our efforts are for naught. So here is a definitive guide to the five main items you can buy, all from small, independent businesses, that will help you say goodbye to all the single use "stuff", and get you set on your journey to less waste.
Cloth Handkerchiefs
We all have boxes and little packets of tissues all around our homes – and besides loo roll, they are probably the most commonly bought single use item. Swop them out for some cloth handkerchiefs. you can make them so easily yourself from old t-shirts or buy some from an independent seller. Wash them with your ordinary clothes wash and discover how much nicer on your nose a cloth hankie feels! Find some at great prices here and here!
Beeswax Wraps
Cling film. We wrap our sandwiches in it. We cover leftovers in the fridge with it. Found lurking in kitchen drawers everywhere. Beeswax wraps (and soya wraps for vegans) are cotton, covered in a beeswax based solution that allows you to keep your food fresh at home and away. Get a drawer full of these and say goodbye to single use plastic coverings forever! Another make that are pretty easy to do at home, find out how to DIY in this blog post! If you don't have time or energy to make them yourself, you can buy some here and here!
Face Scrubbies
We go through so many single use cotton wool pads – for make up removal, nail polish removal, and a myriad of other things. Re-usable cotton pads are very easy to make yourself, even if you've never crocheted before – check out this how-to from the Moral Fibres blog. If you'd rather just buy some, there are a whole host of independent sellers on Etsy who make them in all the colours of the rainbow. Find some here and here!
Cloth Produce Bags
Many of us head to the supermarket with our own shopping bags these days, and are well versed in the thanks but no thanks when we're offered bags at the checkout. But the bread and fruit and veg isles throws up a quandry when we're presented with flimsy, single use plastic bags to pack our bread and loose veg in. You can avoid this entirely by taking your own produce bags with you. Make them from old, un-used pillowcases at home, or buy some here and here!
Possibly one of my favorite swops – we used to use so many plastic sponges or scourers for washing up – we'd use them for a week or so, often less, and then they'd get thrown in the bin. These UnSponges by Rowan Stillwater are fantastic and get great reviews. Made from cotton and hessian, they get your pots clean without damaging the planet, plus you can put them in the washing machine every few days, dry and reuse. Get one in the Rowan Stillwater Etsy shop here.
Reducing waste and changing mindsets can be a really hard thing, but taking it one little step at a time, one change at a time, together we can make a difference. Saving money and saving the planet at the same time. What's not to love?
Have you crafted something as a great plastic free swop to help your own zero waste journey? Tell us about it by emailing Kate at email@example.com for a chance to feature in the next edition of No Serial Number Magazine!

Now that I have seen at least one match of each of the 8 teams, I think now is a good time to mention my first impressions of the teams.
To start with – Mumbai Indians – It looked like grandfather Sachin and Sanath playing with their grandkids, atleast when the team was announced. With their combined age 77 it did seem that way. The team looked lacking middle order strength BUT they proved me wrong and the new recruits seems like a good choice. Aditya Tare, Saurabh Tiwary, Sathish and Ambati Rayadu look well in their part and they won the match despite Seniors not doing much, Harbhajan injured and Yusuf Pathan blitzkrieg. Perhaps Lucky to win that day, but if they continue to play that way a spot in the semis is there for the taking.
A team you love it or hate it but cant ignore it , Kolkata Knightriders. Surprise ! Surprise ! The team is playing as a 'team' and have left behind their past 2 nightmarish seasons, at least it looks so far. Ganguly is leading them from the front and his fielding and batting maybe a bit rusty but his captaincy is as sharp as it was during his peak. Angelo Matthews has to be the most underrated ( and cheap) all rounder just like most Lankan players are. Brad Hodge is playing well and Laxmi Ratan Shukla seems to have a got a second wind. The team should continue to do well especially in home games with massive Eden Garden support behind them and half of Bollywood cheering for them. With superstar overseas players like Hussey, Bond , Mccullum and Gayle yet to arrive , things can only be better. Perhaps a semifinal spot for them.
Rajasthan Royals was the team of 10 players and Shae Warne in the first edition, now its perhaps 10 players and Yusuf Pathan. The man is in peak of his form and can do no wrong. Breaking several domestic records in last 2 months he continues to pummel the opposition bowlers with his huge sixes and massive drives. Royals were unlucky not to win their first match. However apart from Pathan other team members looked bit out of touch. Warne didnt turn the ball much and none of the other bowlers were impressive. Although its mindless to predict based on just 1 game but I think Royals might just miss out on the Semis spot this year.
Another team that looked rusty was Chennai Superkings. Even with massive crowd support behind them, they couldnt muster up a decent fight to the Chargers. Their bowling looks weak and even Muralidharan seems struggling. They are also missing Flintoff and Oram and they seem to rely too much on Dhoni and Hayden at the top. Someone like Suresh Raina, Badrinath etc. have to stand and deliver. They have to improve and improve real soon.
Deccan Chargers rolled over the superkings succesfully after suffering unexpected loss against Knightriders. They seem to have the right team combination with Gilchrist and Gibbs at the top, Symonds and Rohit Sharma in the middle. Their bowling also looks decent with R P Singh, Vaas and Prgyan Ojha. Their slightly weaker link is I think VVS Laxman. Laxman is the most elegant player when its comes to batting in a test match, however in this format of the game he looks out of place especially when he is opening the innings along with fluent Gilchrist. Perhaps they need to make him bat at 4 or 5, although I cant see him slogging in the final 5 overs either. Maybe drop Laxman altogether.
Bangalore Royal Challengers looks a great team when you have experience of Kaalis, Dravid, Kumble to combine with young brigade like Manish Pandey , Robin Utthappa and Virat Kohli and with Dale Steyn leading the bowling attack you have one of the best balanced team. However they were simply outclassed in the first match by KKR. Perhaps they would soon get their act together and be a team they were last year.
Kings XI Punjab to me looks the weakest team of the tournament. Somehow the middle order of Mahela, Yuvraj and Sangakkara looks too sedate and their bowling minus Brett Lee lacks serious firepower. Irfant Pathan needs a speedy dose of aggression from his brother Yusuf Pathan. Ramesh Power and Piyush Chawala looked clueless on slow pitch. They need Brett Lee to be back , mercurial Sreesanth to be consistent and maybe someone more aggrasive like Shaun Marsh at top of order should be good. Whats Mohhamad Kaif doing in the team?
Finally, the team to beat, Delhi Daredevils with the strongest batting lineup of this IPL, they would be the team every other team would be afraid of. On their day any of Sehwag, Gambhir, Warner, Dilshan and AB Deviliers can blast any bowling attack out of the ground. They have a wonderful bowling attack as well with Dirk Nannes in top form and Amit Mishra with a new found confidence. A semifinal spot is almost a guaranteed if they continue to play like they do and they can. Who knows maybe even the championship !

Children of the Dragonfly
Sometimes the losses of childhood can be recovered only in the flight of the dragonfly.Native American children have long been subject to removal from their homes for placement in residential schools and, more recently, in foster or adoptive homes. The governments of both the United States and Canada, having reduced Native nations to the legal status of dependent children, historically have asserted a surrogate parentalism over Native children themselves.
Children of the Dragonfly is the first anthology to document this struggle for cultural survival on both sides of the U.S.-Canadian border. Through autobiography and interviews, fiction and traditional tales, official transcripts and poetry, these voices Seneca, Cherokee, Mohawk, Navajo, and many others weave powerful accounts of struggle and loss into a moving testimony to perseverance and survival.
Invoking the dragonfly spirit of Zuni legend who helps children restore a way of life that has been taken from them, the anthology explores the breadth of the conflict about Native childhood. Included are works of contemporary authors Sherman Alexie, Joy Harjo, Luci Tapahonso, and others; classic writers Zitkala-Sa and E. Pauline Johnson; and contributions from twenty important new writers as well. They take readers from the boarding school movement of the 1870s to the Sixties Scoop in Canada and the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 in the United States. They also spotlight the tragic consequences of racist practices such as the suppression of Indian identity in government schools and the campaign against Indian childbearing through involuntary sterilization.

Thornton Wilder. Born in Madison, Wisconsin, and educated at Oberlin, Yale (B.A. 1920) and Princeton (M.A. 1925), Thornton Wilder was an accomplished novelist and playwright whose works, which explore the connection between the commonplace and the cosmic dimensions of human experience, continue to be read and produced around the world. The Bridge of San Luis Rey, one of seven novels, won the Pulitzer Prize in 1928, as did two of his four full-length plays, Our Town (1938) and The Skin of Our Teeth (1943). Mr. Wilder's The Matchmaker was later adapted as the musical Hello, Dolly! Wilder was a master of the one act play -- The Happy Journey to Trenton and Camden and The Long Christmas Dinner were among his most celebrated titles -- and an outstanding practitioner of the mini or playlet form. Mr. Wilder also enjoyed enormous success with many other forms of the written and spoken word, among them teaching, acting, opera and film. His screenplay for Alfred Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt (1943) remains a classic psycho-thriller to this day.
The genius of Thornton Wilder continues to resonate. In 1998 The Bridge of San Luis Rey was selected by the editorial board of the American Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of the 20th century, and the closing lines of this work were quoted by British Prime Minister Tony Blair during the memorial service for victims of the attacks on September 11, 2001. In 2006, Our Town, performed at least once each day somewhere in this country, received its world premiere as an opera. Mr. Wilder's many honors include the Gold Medal for Fiction from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the National Book Committee's Medal for Literature. On April 17, 1997, the centenary of his birth, Mr. Wilder was honored by the United States Postal Service with a First-class stamp issued in Hamden, Connecticut, his home after 1930. He died there on December 7, 1975.

text: Women walk holding pictures of Ozgecan Arslan, a student who was raped and murdered, during a protest against domestic violence [File: Murad Sezer/Reuters]- A government proposal to quash the convictions of men convicted of child sex assaults if they marry their victim has sparked furious debate in Turkey, with critics accusing it of encouraging child rape and the ruling party insisting it will protect those who were too young to marry legally. Thursday's motion stated that in the case of sexual abuse of a minor committed before November 11, if the act was committed without "force, threat, or any other restriction on consent" and if the aggressor "marries the victim" the sentence will be postponed. The motion was issued as part of a 49-article bill draft in a night-time parliamentary session. The motion passed, but the bill did not receive a majority vote. The parliament will vote again on the entire bill on November 22, and if it passes, then the motion will also be validated. If this happens, it will then go to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and following his approval, it will be published in the official gazette and come in to force. Omer Suha Aldan, a member of parliament with the opposition CHP, criticised the motion, saying it will "encourage forced marriages" and "legalise marriage to rapists", according to the Turkish daily Hurriyet. READ MORE: Turkey's Erdogan says childless women are 'incomplete' "If a 50 or 60-year-old is told to marry an 11-year-old after raping her, and then marries her years later, she will suffer the consequences," he was quoted as saying on Friday. "If you give him a pass by marriage, the young girl will live in a prison for her whole life," Aldan said. 'Distorting the issue' The government angrily hit back at the criticism, calling the opposition claims a crude distortion of an attempt to grapple with the legal consequences of child marriage in the country. "The issue is simple," Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim told reporters after attending Friday prayers in the Turkish capital Ankara. "There are people who marry early. They do not know the law, so they have children. The father goes to jail and the children is left alone with their mother. OPINION: On Erdogan and Muslim mothers "We determined that there are 3,000 families living like this." Under current law, the age of consent in Turkey is 18 years old, meaning individuals aged 17 or younger are not legally able to consent to sexual activity, and such activity may result in prosecution for statutory rape . Turkey's statutory rape law is violated when an individual has consensual sexual contact with a person under the age of 18, but sexual contact with minors between the ages of 15-17 can only be prosecuted upon complaint. Yildirim said the motion will be a "one-off" pardon for people who violated the law "unknowingly". "Everyone made promises to solve this problem during their election campaigns. Everything is out in the open. This is not a pardon for rape." Today is #EndChildSexualAbuseDay & MPs in #Turkey propose offenders go free if they marry the child @UNICEF #TecavuzMesrulastirilamaz #Rape — ATLANTALI (@ATLANTALI) November 18, 2016 Yildirim emphasised that November 11 will be the endpoint of the motion's coverage, adding that "If these types of marriages take place after this date, we will not tolerate it". Justice Minister Bekir Bozdag also rejected the criticism."It is a temporary regulation and it will be put into force only one time retrospectively," he told reporters on Friday. IN PICTURES: Abortion ban latest issue to polarise Turkey Bozdag denied that the motion would cover rape cases and said there is a current "reality" encouraging marriage between girls and boys under the age of 18 that the motion aimed to address, according to Hurriyet. "This step is actually being taken to protect young people who are victims of underage marriage," he said."Those who say rapists will benefit from this are distorting the situation. People who are convicted have definitive files that indicate clearly whether there is a rape or if it is a mistake of the parents," he added. But Yildirim and Bozdag's comments were not enough to calm the social media outrage, as the hashtag #Tecavuzmesrulastirilamaz (#Rape cannot be legitimised) was still the first trending topic on Twitter in Turkey late on Friday. Hey Turkey! STOP legalizing child abuse! #Marrakech #COP22 #TecavuzAklanamaz #TecavuzMesrulastirilamaz — Genç Yesiller (@genc_yesiller) November 18, 2016 #Rape cannot be legalized. #TecavuzMesrulastirilamaz — Itir Erhart (@itirerhart) November 18, 2016 The latest controversy comes after Turkey's constitutional court in July annulled a criminal code provision punishing as "sexual abuse" all sexual acts involving children under the age of 15. Defenders of that law argued it made a distinction between cases of sexual acts involving a young teenager or a toddler. In Turkey, child marriage occurs widely in all regions of the country, according to the UN's Population Fund. Although marriage can be contracted by two persons of 17 years, according to the Turkey Civil Code, it is widely known that many marriages occur before that age. While holding a religious marriage before the conclusion of the civil marriage is not legal, the practice is widespread in Turkey and most child marriages are unofficial religious marriages. Since these marriages are not registered, there are no accurate statistical data on child marriages. SOURCE: Al Jazeera News And News Agencies Turkey Women's Rights Law Middle East
