A large portion of up-and-coming affluent people around the world, though generally satisfied with their wealth managers' use of technology, are unimpressed with the way advisors use that technology to show them how to invest their money, according to a new study.
Only 40% of respondents in the third of the four-part Futurewealth Report series expressed satisfaction with the technology wealth managers used to demonstrate portfolio strategies, with 59% saying they were satisfied when the technology was used to execute financial transactions.
Satisfaction was highest in the Americas, where levels were 10% and 9% higher than the above-mentioned global figures, respectively, according to the study by SEI, Scorpio Partnership and Standard Chartered Private Bank, which surveyed 3,477 respondents globally with an average $1.9 million in net worth.
Regardless of region, the results illustrate that investment technology must transition from mechanical capabilities to a state where investors can digitally access their advisors' opinions on current trends, industry developments and recommendations, the report said.
Advisors have integrated technology in the middle and back office, where enhancements have simplified the ease of transactions and minimized operational overhead, Joseph Ujobai, executive vice president of SEI, said in a statement.
Now investors want to experience these technology advancements themselves, "and wealth managers need to prioritize giving investors digital access to the decision-making processes that inform managers' suggested strategies," Ujobai said. "Wealth managers who use digital technology to pull investors into this discovery phase will stand out among competitors."
With regard to client acquisition, the report found that the emerging wealthy checked wealth managers' credentials and investment recommendations through various digital filters before making decisions.
Although 62% said "previous personal experience with the firm" most influenced their decision to work with a particular financial provider, the Futurewealthy double- and triple-checked information digitally.
Fifty percent said tools such as "ratings and reviews of firm's products and services" were most important, followed by "firm's website" (47%), "news articles about firm and products" (46%) and "price comparison sites" (44%).
Interestingly, respondents ranked a firm's social networking presence and blog posts as the least important factors when evaluating a financial provider. So much for the social media craze.
Each report in the Futurewealth Report series focuses on a different aspect of how technology and digital communications can be used to engage the next generation of wealthy.
Part one revealed the digital habits and views on technology of individuals rapidly accumulating considerable wealth who have positioned themselves at the forefront of the digital information age.
Part two found that the up-and-coming wealthy are not just effective communicators; they have also devoted the time and mastered the skills to make their voices heard.
The final report in the series is scheduled for release in the second quarter.

Brothels Newport TA3
What You Should Know About Brothels
The main difference between brothels and prostitution is that in the former, there is no age limit to enter, unlike in the latter. Although both men and women enter into brothels, the clientele tend to be younger and hence the advertisements for such brothels generally target youngsters and teenagers.
In the United States, there is no law that governs the brothels in any way. However, a lot of action has been taken in order to regulate the brothels since the early 1980s. The Brothel and Prostitution Prevention Act was enacted in 1989 to regulate the brothels, although it did not provide an age limit for entry.
Brothels are legal in the states of Arizona, California, Nevada, Louisiana, Arkansas, Utah, Nevada, Colorado, Oregon, Hawaii, Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, and North Dakota. In each of these states, prostitution is legal on the premise that it is a service to the community and it is not illegal. However, the age of consent for the clientele and customers are lower than in other states in the US.
In the states of Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, brothels are regulated by the state governments. In these states, brothels must adhere to a set of government rules regarding admission, payment, operating hours, and so on.
The legal brothels are supposed to provide services for sexual gratification of both male and female clients. Sexually explicit material is not allowed at a brothel. However, women who wish to wear sexy clothes in order to attract male customers may do so provided they are accompanied by a male escort.
Brothels are often associated with crime. Although some are run by criminals, most operate legally and they are usually non-violent. If you intend to visit a brothel, then you should be aware of the legal aspects before entering the premises.
A brothel can provide clients with sex services or they can have other types of services. Some might offer only sexual services and others might also offer other services like room service, dance lessons, and so on. However, a brothel cannot provide you with other types of services like room service and dancing lessons. You have to pay extra if you want them.
Brothels Newport TA3 Call Girls
If you find yourself visiting a brothel for prostitution, then you are required to provide the establishment with identification. A registration form will then be given to you which you have to fill out.
Before you enter a brothel, you should bring proof of your nationality, age, nationality, and gender. You will be asked to show proof of age and residency as well.
Before entering a brothel, you should be aware of what the establishment requires of you. You should be able to show proof of having a valid immigration visa. Otherwise, you will be denied entry into the brothel premises.
The brothels in many countries do not permit you to enter the brothel after dusk. Therefore, if you plan to use the services of a brothel in the evening, then you should arrive in the brothel at least two hours before you wish to visit.
No one under the age of 18 should enter a brothel, as the facility provides only for adult customers. You can also be warned to stay away from brothels as well, as they are operated by criminals.

High above the Rhine on the Palatinate wine route stands a well-fortified castle, whose unassuming appearance belies its importance in the narrative of German history.
From 1797 to 1815 the Palatinate belonged to France and aligned itself with the values of the French Revolution – liberty, equality, fraternity. The July revolution in Paris in 1830 further fuelled the desire for liberty in the Palatinate, which culminated in the Hambach Festival. Leading liberals and 30,000 citizens from all walks of life gathered together and demanded more civil rights, religious tolerance and above all national unity. They also demanded freedom of assembly, freedom of expression and a free press. The Hambach Festival went down in history as the birth of German democracy. It was also the first time that the black, red and gold tricolour was flown as the symbol of German unity. The exhibition at Hambach Castle explores this pivotal political event. Flags, a printing press and historical documents take visitors back to the days of the Hambach Festival. The original flag from 1832 is now on show at the local history museum in Neustadt. Today, Hambach Castle is a partially restored ruin, whose walls and towers are reminders of almost 1,000 years of history. Nearby attractions: Spangenberg Castle, a castle ruin in the Palatinate Forest, is believed to have been built in the 11th century. After some preservation work the lower castle now has a tavern. Otto Dill, one of the Palatinate's most popular and influential painters, was born in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse in 1884. At the town's Otto Dill Museum visitors can admire his powerful animal paintings and the whole of his creative output.

Friday Gourmet, Wine and…Cardinals??
I know, I know. It doesn't sound the same without the Angels at all. But what's a fan to do? Ignore the post season? Go into deep mourning every Friday night? I think not. So consider this Friday Gourmet: the Post Season Edition. And I have to say, even though I was sorely missing the Angels, having two excellent games for my viewing pleasure did make for a most enjoyable Friday. How cool is it that three of the four LDS match-ups went to Game 5 and all four match-ups were decided by 1 run? Pretty darned cool and extremely exciting. Suffice to say, this post season we've seen some good, close matchups.
I'll admit it. I started my Friday a little early and snuck in the last two innings of the D-Backs game while I finished up a few things for work…hey, I also finally shut down the work laptop at home on Thursday just shy of midnight, so I think they still came out of this with the majority of my attention. 😉 What a good game! I wanted the D-Backs to win. But it was so close and everyone played so well, that they should certainly go home with their heads held high and rest up for next season when I have no doubt they'll pick up right where they left off. (Though hopefully a rebuilt Dodgers team with spanking new owners will give them a run for their money and wind up in the top spot. Sorry Gibby. That's just the way it works with me.) And, in the meantime, Congratulations to the Brewers! At the same time I was sorry to see the D-Backs lose, I was also pleased to see these guys win. Hey, it's the post season. That's allowed.
As for the Cardinals/Phillies game? That was one heck of taut pitcher's duel. Both teams were on and it really could have gone either way. It was very exciting! I am sorry to say that I didn't have the appropriate appreciation for Chris Carpenter before watching this game. Consider my eyes opened. He and Halliday were very well matched. Oh to be a fly on the wall during their planned fishing trip this off season. The game was so good, in fact, that Seth had to jokingly remind me not to wait to time the dinner by smoke detector twice. In my rushing back and forth between the kitchen and the TV, I'd failed to notice the timer going off. (Given the option to watch a big game live I hate, HATE, to pause it for longer than one could logically catch back up during a commercial break if I can help it.) You laugh, dear reader, but timing a meal by smoke detector has happened to both of us before. Only when cooking under extenuating distracting circumstances, mind you, such as during a game. …Oh, okay. Or when blackening fish or chicken. But, seriously. Searing blackening spice encrusted meat is really just a culinary game of chicken with the smoke detector anyway, so I don't think that should count. 😉
Yeah, I was cooking a little towards the beginning of the game. It was Friday after all. I baked a spicy chili, cheddar bread and toasted up thick slices of it with turkey, thick slices tomato, slivers of onion and homemade cheddar garlic spread melted over the top. Paired with a gorgeous Muscat Canelli from Eberle it was really, really good if I do say so myself. Yes, paired with a sweet wine. Okay, you're forgiven for making that face. You've probably only ever had sips of some ghastly sugar bomb like Beringer's White Zinfandel or the like before. Trust me, it's all about balance and a good sweet wine paired with something pungent and earthy like blue cheese or camembert, or with something spicy like Thai food or, say, a sandwich made with bread that includes a fair bit of fresh diced jalapeño, and it is a thing of beauty. And, hey, an evening in with good food, good wine a great game? It doesn't get much better than that.
Would that this evening's ALCS game had been as good. I would be willing to be that Verlander could have recovered his command given a few more innings in a row with no rain delay, but that may or may not have been enough. And then after the first rain delay it was C.J. Wilson's turn to get a little sloppy, but not enough so for the Tigers to take the lead. Oh well. That's only the first game. So, tomorrow. Bike ride. Minor chores. Then brunch eventually and a heck of a lot of baseball, possibly accompanied by the Tigers friendly Rio Seco wine. (Rio Seco's winemaker played in the Tigers minor league system) Now, who the heck am I rooting for in the NLCS?? I like 'em both and would enjoy seeing either in the World Series, so that is the question of the evening. Any thoughts?

Sluts are in truth escorts working in brothels. One of the more typical opinions is that there are merely escorts working for various brothels, which produces the perception that one is always various from the other. The truth is that Sluts and prostitutes do work for the exact same brothel. So, if you are not aware of the distinction in between the two, here is what you need to understand.
For one, Sluts will generally be more youthful than sluts. They are also more self-reliant and independent. They can handle a big quantity of client questions and their spending plan is comparatively smaller. A lot of brothels just employ one or two Sluts. Their performance is also an assurance for their long-lasting relationship with the brothel. So, they are extremely important possessions of any brothel.
Sluts are usually in their early thirties and have actually either been coping with their families or are homemakers. These are thought about very desirable clientele because of their abundant sexual experience. They are also more thinking about sex than in other service sectors. This permits them to have better interaction with the customers in order to satisfy them completely.
These brothels are always chosen by Sluts. Sluts prefer the more laid back and unwinding atmosphere of the brothels.
Brothels generally require a minimum cost per hour to be paid by their Sluts. It is elective for them to pay their Sluts' fees. Nevertheless, the majority of them normally opt to do so to protect their independence.
Brothels also require that the working hours of the escorts need to be mutually agreed upon. As a result, the escorts are not always able to get free time.
Most of the Sluts working in brothels are called "Sluts". They are really working for a brothel with no reservations, regardless of their age.
Sluts are typically adult women and they are thought about to be more desirable and able to please the brothel's clients. Because they are just working for the brothel, they do not desire to expose their age. They might actually be really young and really inexperienced.
In the sex market, it is the responsibility of the brothel to look for sluts. If the brothel discovers a partner, the brothel has to face an essential monetary problem.
call girl High Heaton NE7, brothels High Heaton NE7, prostitutes High Heaton NE7, hookers High Heaton NE7, sluts High Heaton NE7, whores High Heaton NE7, gfe High Heaton NE7, girlfriend experience High Heaton NE7, shagging High Heaton NE7, dogging High Heaton NE7, fuck buddy High Heaton NE7, hookups High Heaton NE7, free sex High Heaton NE7, sex meet High Heaton NE7, nsa sex High Heaton NE7
As a result, brothels always look for Sluts. The customers have an incentive to prevent the bad credibility of the brothels. A lot of brothels look for Sluts to help their reliability. It is not extremely easy to discover a sex employee that is absolutely trusted.
Therefore, the brothels look for Sluts so that they can prevent handling sluts. They can continue their organisation without being reliant on brothels for their customers once they have actually a relied on partner.
Sluts are in reality escorts working in brothels. The truth is that Sluts and prostitutes do work for the exact same brothel. A lot of brothels just hire one or 2 Sluts. If the brothel finds a partner, the brothel has to face a crucial monetary issue.
As a result, brothels always look for Sluts..

NoniMorinda citrifolia
• None
• Numerous Uses
Morinda citrifolia , also known as noni or Indian mulberry, is a small evergreen shrub or tree of the plant family Rubiaceae. Native to the Pacific islands, Polynesia, Asia, and Australia, it grows up to 10 feet high. The leaves are 8 or more inches long, dark green, oval shaped, and shiny, with deep veins. The flower heads are about an inch long and bear many small white flowers. These heads grow to become the mature fruit, 3 to 4 inches in diameter with a warty, pitted surface. Noni fruit starts out green, turns yellow with ripening, and has a foul odor, especially as it ripens to whiteness and falls to the ground.
Some cultures may eat noni fruit in times of scarcity (the unripened fruit is less noxious). Traditional Polynesian healers have apparently used the fruit for many purposes including bowel disorders (constipation and diarrhea), skin inflammation, infection, mouth sores, fever, contusions, and sprains—but it is said that only sick and desperate people will take it, due to its unpleasant odor and bitter taste. However, the primary indigenous use of this plant appears to be of the leaves, as a topical treatment for wound healing.
In Chinese medicine, the root of M. officinalis is also a standard medication (known as bai ji tian or pa chi tien) used for the digestive system, kidneys, heart, and liver.
Other traditional uses for the plant include making a red dye from the bark and a yellow dye from the root.
What Is Noni Used for Today?
Noni has been heavily promoted for an enormous range of uses, including: abrasions, arthritis, atherosclerosis, bladder infections, boils, bowel disorders, burns, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, circulatory weakness, colds, cold sores, congestion, constipation, diabetes, drug addiction, eye inflammations, fever, fractures, gastric ulcers, gingivitis, headaches, heart disease, hypertension, improved digestion, immune weakness, indigestion, intestinal parasites, kidney disease, malaria, menstrual cramps, menstrual irregularities, mouth sores, respiratory disorders, ringworm, sinusitis, skin inflammation, sprains, stroke, thrush, and wounds. 1]]> However, there is no real evidence that it is effective for any of these conditions.
Several ]]>animal studies]]> have evaluated the effects of extracts derived from noni. The results suggest noni may have anti-cancer, ]]>2,3,4]]> immune-enhancing, ]]>5]]> and pain-relieving properties. ]]>6]]> However, most of these studies used unrealistically high doses that would be difficult to get from taking the juice itself. There have been no meaningful human trials of noni.
Commercial products that contain noni juice or a juice concentrate are widely available and heavily promoted. These preparations have either eliminated the odor or altered the taste to make it more palatable. Tablets and capsules of the fruit and of the whole plant are also available.
The usual recommendation is the equivalent of 4 ounces of noni juice 30 minutes before breakfast. The typical recommendation is 2 tablespoons daily for liquid concentrates or 500 to 1,000 mg daily for powdered extracts.
According to noni promoters, it should be taken on an empty stomach and not together with coffee, tobacco, or alcohol. 7]]> However, there is no scientific evidence for this recommendation.
Safety Issues
Although use of noni is not commonly associated with side effects, comprehensive safety studies have not been performed. A small number of case reports hint that, in rare cases, use of noni might cause severe liver damage, potentially leading to a need for liver transplant. 8-9]]> The risk is believed to be very low, however, if it exists at all. ]]>10]]> Nonetheless, people with liver disease, or who take medications that can harm the liver, or who consume alcohol to excess should not use noni. Maximum safe doses in young children or pregnant or nursing women remains unclear.

snap2 rotating snapshot backups for Puppy
Subject description: simple yet powerful rsync-based backup program
Status: Stable/Tested
Download latest pet for Puppy at
May 26, 2012: Released version 4.24
Here are the changelog entries for the last 5 updates:
26-May-2012 (snap2 4.24)
(snap2engine remoteutils2) Bugfix: Roll back to previous handling of snapshot promotion, to allow e.g. zero daily snapshots with weekly snapshots.
25-May-2012 (snap2 4.23)
(snap2) Bugfix: If filesystem root ('/') is Backup Source Directory, backup exclusions could not be added.
(snap2) Bigfix: Upon deleting a Backup Source Directory, additional directories could possibly be deleted.
(snap2 snap2engine) Bugfix: Corrected command line messages when zero daily, weekly, or monthly backups are configured.
(snap2engine): Add special handling of root source directory ('/') backup exclusions
24-Oct-2011 (snap2 4.22)
(snap2) Improved user prompts about generation and use of SSH keys for remote server authentication. No functional changes.
24-Oct-2011 (snap2 4.21)
(snap2, remoteutils2.sh) changed remote SSH authentication method to "manual," add "Generate SSH Keys" button to "Advanced" tab.
23-Oct-2011 (snap2 4.20)
(snap2, remoteutils2.sh) Correct issues with multi-core systems: correct remote SSH authentication detection and remove automatic remote authentication setup.
If you would like to keep 'snapshot's of your files (or, usually, a subset of your files) as they were hours ago, days ago, weeks ago, etc., this program will do that, automatically "spacing out" the backups over time.
Thanks to the use of hard links, it can keep several gigabytes of files on a one-gig USB drive, without compression. Your backups are accessed as ordinary directories and files.
It can also do backup to a remote server. Thanks to the hard link trick, duplicate files (from one backup to another) are "copied" without using disk space. And thanks to rsync magic, only changed portions of files are transmitted.
You access and browse your backups just as you would ordinary directories and files, with any file manager. Despite the huge savings in disk space through the use of hard links,
no compression is used
. This allows you to easily inspect backup files and compare one version of a file with another.
I keep about 1.4 gigs of files from my home directory backed up to my VPS (remote server), over a regular broadband connection, and the whole process usually only takes a couple of minutes (since only new and changed files need to be sent.)
Here are some screenshots directly from my home directory backup configuration. There is a screenshot for each of the program's 3 tabs:
'Directories to Back Up' Tab:
'Backup Storage' Tab:
'Logs & Reports' Tab:
'Advanced' Tab:
'Automatic Backup Scheduler':
'Backup File Exclusions Editor':

ON version 2.3.4, snap2, on doing a snapshot backup, creates a "snaplog.gz" and also seems to create a mirror backup in the same directory.
I thought it was supposed to create either a compressed backup file or a mirror backup, not both.
I did not set up the mirror backup. I only set up the Snapshot backup.
The above happens when I click on the "Snapshot Backup" button.
Also, it creates a new directory for each backup.
Should I have unchecked the create directory option to prevent this?
EDIT: The picture was with the create directory option unchecked.

Hi 8-bit,
snap2 does not create any compressed backup files. It does however, with the default settings, create a compressed log file of what was done during the backup. The 'snaplog.gz' file is that compressed log file. The next version of snap2 will include the option of not compressing the log file. The current version only has the option of not storing a log file (look on the ADVANCED SETTINGS tab).
A snapshot backup does indeed create a new directory for each backup (snapshot), inside the directory you specified on the BACKUP STORAGE tab. This will look like a brand new full copy of your files with full directory structure: a 'snapshot' of the files at the time the backup was run.
However, due to the use of hard links, each new backup only uses extra disk space for
files (and of course for the hard links, which are really just filenames.) That's how you can get, say, 10 gigs of snapshot backups on a 2 gig USB drive. You will be able to retrieve past versions of files from hours, days, weeks, or months ago, files you have long since deleted from your hard drive.
snap2 automatically rotates and 'spaces out' the snapshot backups in time, according to the maximums set for 'recent', 'daily'. 'weekly', and 'monthly' backups. These settings are on the ADVANCED SETTINGS page, and the defaults are good for most people.
I consider the snapshot backup method to be the chief feature of snap2.
The 'Create missing destination top-level dir' (advanced option), is, I admit, not clearly explained by the tooltip text. If checked, it allows snap2 to create the directory you named in 'BACKUP STORAGE', if it does not yet exist. The idea to to avoid accidentally backing up to the wrong storage media. I added this because I used to back up to a USB drive, and I did not want to accidentally back up to the wrong USB drive. Now I back up my 1.5 gig home directory to a remote server.
For more explanation of the concept of snapshot backups, see my website at
Also, this page is good:
If you have no possible need of past versions of files, you can use the 'mirror' backup method, which will result in a single backup with all your files as they were at the time of the last backup. This one backup will be in a directory called 'mirror' in the backup storage directory. I use this method for my Opera mail backup.

1. Is it possible to use this [Snap2] to backup/restore ALL of the folder/file contents of a partition holding an operating system?
2. Am I missing something?
(a) I installed Snap2 within Twinkle-421, ran the program, made the necessary configurations, specified the [mirror] backup path of the partition sda3 [source], and the backup storage location [destination].
(b) Clicked "Mirror Backup Now", and up came a window named "snap2shell mirror default.set".
What is this?
No sign of a backup being made.
Nothing appeared in the destination [/mnt/sda8/snap2-backup-of/sda3].
[Both the source (ext3) and the destination (ext3) were mounted]

OK, this looks good for backups.
How do you restore from these snapshot backups?
Can individual files be restored from specific times?
Are all file ownerships and privileges preserved?
Are my symlinks included in the backups?

Did you install the xterm pet package?
It is currently needed for the program to make backups.
I have made a few and Snap2 works only if you install the xterm pet package.
If you do not see an xterm window pop up giving progress of the backup, you most likely did not install xterm.

1. Success!
Used the PPM to install
, and when I ran the backup, instead of an empty do-nothing "snap2shell mirror default.set" window, a list of files and folders being backed-up flashed down the window.
2. Questions:
(a) Having completed a single "Mirror Backup" [dated as per the "modified" date and time of the "mirror" folder]...
I guess this specifies when I'm going back to if I restore this, right?
(b) If I now [some minutes or hours later] make a snapshot backup...
Is it best to make it in the same /mnt/sda8/snap2-backup-of/sda3 folder?
And will a snapshot make use of the previous mirror backup?
i.e. By only backing-up the "differences" [between the up-to-date state and the last (mirror) backup]?
I'll give this a try whilst awaiting a reply.

1. OK, completed the snapshot backup...
And it has the appearance of comprising ALL of the folders and files on the partition, as though EVERYTHING on the partition has been backed-up...
But my understanding so far is that most of these items are only links to folders/files already copied to the mirror backup...
And that only the "differences" are actually included in the snapshot.
Is that right?
2. So does the original mirror use the most space, and the snapshot very little space?

A mirror backup is an exact SINGLE copy of your files. If you delete files on your computer, and then run a mirror backup, the corresponding files in the mirror backup are also deleted. So you can only recover to a single point in time (the last time you ran the mirror backup).
A snapshot backup keeps a SERIES of 'snapshots' of your files, which look like full backups. Each snapshot directory has ALL your files as they were at the time the snapshot was made. However, due to the use of hard links, each new snapshot "full backup" only uses disk space to save new and modified files.
For both mirror and snapshot-type backups, after the first run, subsequent backups will only, of course, copy over
only new and modified files
. In fact, when updating an existing file, only the
between files will be transmitted by rsync, which can give a huge savings in time and/or bandwidth.
As to where you should put your backups:
I use the same backup storage directory for both my snapshot and my mirror-type backups. They will not get mixed up. Mirror backups will be in a directory named 'mirror', and snapshot backups will be in a series of directories with names like recent.1, recent.2, daily.1, daily.2, etc. For an explanation of how this backup naming works and how snapshot backups are automatically 'rotated', see
Snapshot and mirror backups are completely different types of backups and do not interact. Snapshot backups will not make use of a previous mirror backup for the hard-link references.
Just remember that mirror backups are a
of snapshot backups. Snapshot backups give you the same thing as a mirror backup,
access to previous versions of files (previous snapshots), for only a relatively small amount of extra disk space. As I have pointed out, you can often fit 7 or 8 gigs of snapshot backups on a 1 gig USB drive.
For recovery, look at the date stamp of the 'mirror' directory (for mirror backups) or the various snapshot directories (for snapshot-type backups. The timestamp of the directory is the date of the backup. To recover your files, just copy them back. I highly recommend mc (Midnight Commander) for copying files around in Puppy. In mc, you can use the fish filesystem to copy files between a remote server and your computer, just like you were copying between 2 local disks. There is an mc pet for Puppy.
You could certainly use snap2 to back up an entire partition, but I don't think that is usually necessary. I recommend you identify the data files you need to recover your computer, and only back those up. snap2 uses 'exclusion patterns' to specify which groups of files NOT to back up. I have detailed information on this, including examples, on the snap2 website
>OK, this looks good for backups.
>How do you restore from these snapshot backups?
Copy files/directories back using your favorite file manager. For recovery from a remote server I suggest mc + fish rather than FTP, but you can use FTP.
>Can individual files be restored from specific times?
Yes, if snapshot backups are used. Mirror backups, on the other hand, will only keep a single copy representing your files the last time you ran the backup.
>Are all file ownerships and privileges preserved?
Yes, although a non-privileged user will not be able to back up files for a different user and preserve file ownership. There may be a minor issue with changed directory ownerships under certain circumstances, but I don't think it affects Puppy, where this would presumably be run by root.
>Are my symlinks included in the backups?
Symlinks yes, hard links no.
I have updated the screenshots at the top of this post.

To clarify the "minor issue with changed directory ownerships under certain circumstances..."
In fact, this is an issue that has concerned me for some time. I delved into into it today, and confirmed that by using cp to create the hard links,
permissions and ownerships in file in old snapshots can get the value of the file in the most recent snapshot, if the only change to a file is a change in ownership or permission.
Fortunately, rsync after version 2.5.6 has a special --link-dest switch designed to create hard links (or not) properly for snapshot backups.
I had tried this previously, but rejected it because it cluttered up the log files with directory entries. My workaround is to throw away all directory entries from the rsync log.
3.2-17 is the fixed version, and will be uploaded tomorrow.

1. OK, I think I now substantially understand how Snap2 works.
Tell me if I'm right or wrong.
2. "
mirror backup is an exact SINGLE copy of your folders/files
This keeps only ONE copy of the way things were the most recent time a mirror backup was made.
When you make yet another mirror backup of the source...
Only DIFFERENCES are copied over to alter/update the mirror copy.
The 1st time you make a mirror is probably the only time EVERYTHING is copied over, so it takes the most time and involves the greatest diminishment of available free space.
3. "
A snapshot backup keeps a SERIES of 'snapshots' of your files, which look like full backups
The first snapshot looks/behaves the same as the first mirror.
The big difference is in the making of subsequent snapshots.
Whereas a mirror alters the content to incorporate the "differences", and the latest mirror is now a perfect copy of the latest state of the source...
A snapshot looks as though it has made a whole new additional backup that includes all the "differences"since the previous snapshot.
In fact it really only comprises the differences...
But the new snapshot has been made to appear like a full new backup by adding links for all the unchanged folders/files, to the original copies in the 1st snapshot.
What if you then DELETE the 1st snapshot?
4. "
only the differences between files will be transmitted...which can give a huge savings in time and/or bandwidth
This is the main motivation for me switching to this from using Xfe to make and restore backup copies of the folder/file contents of Partitions.
At the moment I have multiple [4] Xfe backups of sda3 made between last November 11th and now [Jan15].
I could save about 4Gb there alone; and there will be a BIG saving in time.
5. "
I use the same backup storage directory for both my snapshot and my mirror-type backups
I see why this is the way to go; the program makes/names its own mirror & snapshot sub-folders within the chosen/specified backup folder.
6. "
Snapshot and mirror backups are completely different types of backups and do not interact
OK, I get it...
But isn't it possible to make Snap2 make use of a mirror [to subsitute for the 1st snapshot] if it's available?
Or is your reasoning: "why do that when you can make a snapshot?"
7. "
mirror backups are a subset of snapshot backups
I don't understand this statement; don't know what a SUBSET is.
8. "
To recover your files, just copy them back. I highly recommend mc (Midnight Commander)
I normally use the SUPERB "X File Explorer" [Xfe] to do such work.
I can be easily configured to display twin panes [in addition to the leftmost pane displaying the folder hierarchy].
These can be used to "Copy to..." or "Move to..." from one pane to the other.
Is MC better than Xfe?
9. "
You could certainly use snap2 to back up an entire partition, but I don't think that is usually necessary
(a) I've been doing this [backing-up entire partitions] routinely for YEARS.
I always move [almost] ALL of the data files off the OS partition, so as to reduce the content to only the OS and program files.
e.g. I moved the Mozilla folder off sda3 to sda11 [with a Symlink back to the original location], and made the necessary configurations to have sda11 auto-mounted.
This prevents the Mozilla contents "jumping-back" when I restore the sda3 partition contents to an earlier time.
I normally then backup ALL of the contents of the [sda3? and others?] OS partition[s].
Backing up [and restoring] the contents of an OS partition at various point in time...
Gives the possibility of of eliminating [ALL] software problems.
e.g. If the OS has ceased functioning normally, you can restore a normally working system.
Or if you make some [complex?] change, then think better of it, you can easily take things back to the way they were.
(b) I backup the data partitions separately.
Certain types of data files don't need backed-up so often as the OS partition contents.
And certain data files [emails, address book, etc] you wouldn't want to revert to an earlier time.

I have a specific purpose for snap2 in mind and would like to clarify it's usage.
I have a Linux LAN server (not puppy) that holds files for several groups and users. If I (root) perform the snapshot backups for all users and then restore them while being root, will the original file and directory ownerships and permissions that existed at the time of backup be restored?

YES, you can do it as you say and all the permissions and ownerships will be preserved.
#2 You got it!
#3: As you say, when a new snapshot backup is made, all files that are unchanged from the previous snapshot are duplicated using hard links rather than by making a separate copy. The hard links for a new snapshot (the newest is always in a directory called recent.1) are linked to files in the next-newest backup (usually recent.2). However, if most of the files in recent.2 are themselves hard links, where is the "real" file? Is it the first copy made?
The answer is "no". In a Linux filesystem, ALL files are hard links to a storage area on the filesystem. So the first copy of a file is really just a hard link itself, no different from any other hard link that might be created to the same file. There are no "original copies." When you think in terms of "original copy" and "link to the original copy", you are thinking of symbolic links, not hard links.
So, you can delete ANY hard link, and the actual file (on disk) will not be deleted until the LAST hard link is removed.
You can use the 'ls -l' command in a terminal to see how many hard links a file has.
#6 The latest snapshot backup is exactly the same as a mirror backup, so there is no point in having both. If you have made a mirror backup and want to convert to snapshot-type backups, and you want the mirror backup to be used as the hard link reference, you would first configure your snapshot backup with snap2. Then, before you run a backup, rename the 'mirror' directory to 'recent.1' (assuming they are in the same 'backup storage' directory).
#8 "Is MC better than Xfe?" No room for that discussion here!
#9 snap2 should work fine to give you the multiple versions of OS backup that you want. Have fun!

Feedback History
Fairview Coins has been selling on eBay since 2006. They have earned about 25,000 positive feedback ratings, with a current 100% positive overall score. So this is a very successful store on eBay. This is also a Top-Rated eBay store, which means they offer a really high level of item descriptions, customer service, as well as fast shipping.
It's not easy to become a Top-Rated store on eBay. You have to provide good quality items, accurate descriptions, excellent customer service, and fast shipping. And you have to do this day after day, month after month. So Fairview Coins has had a very successful and positive selling history on eBay.
Fairview Coins mainly sells items like coins, proof sets, collectibles, and more.
This is one of those eBay stores to visit when you want the retail experience. If you've been to a coin shop lately, or even any memorabilia store in general, you should be familiar with the brands and styles that they carry.
Items like 1886-O Morgan Dollar Silver RARE Coin — GEM BU++, 1914-D Lincoln Cent Wheat Penny KEY DATE, 1909-S VDB Lincoln Cent Penny — GEM BU++ RAINBOW COLOR, 1806/5 Draped Bust Quarter Dollar Silver Original, etc.
Fairview Coins sells brand new, and vintage merchandise, and does offer a 100% Authentic guarantee, as well as a 100% money back guarantee.
When you sell coins, etc., especially at a discount, a popular question is always going to be if the items are authentic, fake, or knock-offs. To answer that question…
Let's take a close look at their recent feedback history. eBay buyers have a really good way of weeding out the good sellers from the bad. If an item even SLIGHTLY looks like it might be a counterfeit or knock-off, they will leave you bad feedback. And any and all flaws will usually be reflected in a seller's feedback. With that being said, over the past 12 months, Fairview Coins has received about 4,200 positive feedback ratings, compared to just 1 negative feedback comment. With that sort of lop-sided ratio, it definitely appears as though Fairview Coins is an honestly run business, selling authentic merchandise.

All items are guaranteed to be 100% authentic, and come with all the manufacturer paper work, in their original authentic boxes as provided by the manufacturers.
What I like or don't like
Their storefront is very organized. You have a product menu on the left side with all of the brand categories available, as well as top menu with store categories. So you just find your desired category, and go from there. Once you get into a listing page, you get a left hand menu with all of the brands available. So this store is very easy to navigate.
Another thing I appreciate is their attention to detail in their listings. Each listing has multiple clear and large pictures, so you can clearly see what is included in the listing. Their descriptions go into a lot of detail, and provide all the specifications that you might be looking for like the model they work for, size, color, etc. The quality of their listings is about as good as it gets on eBay. You get all sorts of pictures, sizes, weights, package contents, etc.
Their attention to detail, and their excellent feedback really makes you feel secure in shopping from this eBay store. As does their 30-day hassle free returns policy. No need to email back for a return authorization, or deal with with annoying emails back and forth. You just click on return, and send it back. And having a month to do so is quite convenient.

(Editor's Note: This commentary was written before it was reported that Charles Schwab had temporarily removed language in contracts that banned customers from filing class-action lawsuits.)
Forced arbitration has reemerged as a hot-button issue in recent weeks with calls for its demise coming from members of Congress, an SEC commissioner, a far-ranging band of consumer advocates and public interest groups, state securities regulators and others.
And for good reason. For too long, investors have been forced into a 'take it or leave it' scenario by mandatory pre-dispute arbitration clauses in customer agreements with their broker-dealers, and more recently their investment advisors. The time for this denial of investor rights to end is now.
That's why NASAA supports the Arbitration Fairness Act, legislation reintroduced last week by Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) and Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) to eliminate forced arbitration clauses in employment, consumer, civil rights and antitrust cases. NASAA, along with Sen. Franken and 36 of his colleagues in the House and Senate, and consumer organizations ranging from AARP to the Consumer Federation of America and Public Citizen, recently called upon the SEC to use its authority under the Dodd-Frank Act to ban or limit forced arbitrations.
SEC Commissioner Luis Aguilar agrees that the time has come to end what he calls "the denial of investor choice."
At our annual NASAA/SEC 19(d) meeting last month, Commissioner Aguilar said "investors should not have their option of choosing between arbitration and the traditional judicial process taken away from them at the very beginning of their relationship with their brokers and advisers." State securities regulators could not agree more.
Why this flurry of arbitration-related activity after months, if not years, of relative quiet on the arbitration front? Just that: the sound of silence. It has been nearly three years since Dodd-Frank Section 921 gave the SEC the authority to end forced arbitration, yet noting has been done. Within this vacuum of inaction, some have taken aggressive steps to expand the reach of forced arbitration.
For example, states have seen the emergence of forced arbitration clauses in contracts between state-registered investment advisors and their clients, despite the fiduciary duty imposed upon investment advisors.
These clauses have become that much more troubling to NASAA in light of a decision by Charles Schwab & Co. to include class action waivers in the arbitration provisions of its customer contracts—an obvious attempt by Schwab to insulate itself from liability to its own clients.
Schwab's action is yet another example of the pernicious effects of forced arbitration clauses. It would essentially allow broker-dealers and investment advisors to prohibit participation in class actions against them by their customers.
The virtual elimination of litigation as a dispute resolution option through mandatory arbitration clauses, coupled with increasing procedural and evidentiary burdens, will have profound effects on investors and their confidence in investment products and markets.
Earlier this month, NASAA filed an amicus brief with the National Adjudicatory Council supporting FINRA's efforts to overturn a decision by a FINRA hearing panel that allowed Schwab to prevent its customers from participating in class-action lawsuits. The Public Investors Arbitration Bar Association (PIABA), AARP, the National Consumer Law Center and Public Justice weighed in with similar concerns.
As a FINRA member firm since Oct. 13, 1970, Schwab is required to have full knowledge of FINRA rules and is bound to follow them if the firm seeks to maintain its membership—by unilaterally incorporating the waiver into its customer contracts,
Schwab chose to defy its own agreement with FINRA.
Schwab's decision to flaunt FINRA rules prohibiting the use of such clauses, coupled with the decision by a FINRA hearing panel not to enforce those rules, highlights the importance of Section 921.
Now, more than ever, it is essential that the SEC use its authority to ensure that investors have meaningful remedies and a choice of forums in which to resolve disputes with broker-dealers and investment advisers.
At a minimum, the SEC should not hesitate to use the authority Congress granted it under Section 15(o) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to take the steps necessary to prevent the use of class-action waivers that deprive investors of the right to recover from harms they suffer. Preferably, the SEC should ban the use of mandatory pre-dispute arbitration agreements altogether so that investors have a choice when it comes to the forum they want to decide their claims.
Whether the forum is a civil proceeding in court or an arbitral proceeding, investors should be free to choose.

Gi quickly came to be one of the most demanded woman in the parlour although she normally functioned one as well as a half day a week, spaced as if a lot of her customers appeared two times. I was amazed to listen to that she was commonly discourteous to her customers.
She giggled. She opposed that she did not do this to be unpleasant, however to reveal that was in fee.
' As soon as the punter's in the area with you,' she discussed, 'he will certainly do anything to dip his dickie in you. She responded.
I was amazed, given that the majority of women below attract the line at osculatory get in touch with. We commonly estimate this little item to our punters: You pay, we fuck, You pay even more we draw/ Pay also much more we piss, yet sir we do not kiss.
When I came back, Peter reserved me quickly after as well as informed me just how Gi had actually asked him to take a shower once they were in the space downstairs. I took one currently, Peter had actually claimed.
I have actually recognized Peter for a number of years currently. He informs me he has a healthy and balanced sex life at residence, however he is over-endowed. As I was intending to take my little boy to Italy for 10 days, I stated that he might inspect out Maggie.
She assured, including, 'I rather like him in fact, he advises me of my father. He's an excellent fucker as well and also made me come.
Quickly sufficient, Peter just had eyes for Gi.
' You really kiss him?'
I uncovered that they had actually traded contact number. I was significantly startled when she informed me that she usually called him to request guidance.
' I do not kiss any person else.'
' Recommendations? Regarding what?'
' Regarding anything. What footwear to acquire ... why's that vital to you?'
They went to Paris for an entire week after he had actually informed his better half he was going to a seminar. Gi no much longer required my business any type of even more currently, although we were still pals.
Certainly they began satisfying in the area, for beverages, for a dish. He took her to the opera, which she declared to enjoy.
I had not been at all amazed when she informed me that Peter was preparing to leave his better half so the 2 of them can obtain wed. An event with a job coworker, for instance, is a threat to family members life, yet a slut simply supplies alleviation to the horny male. Numerous sauna ladies preserve healthy and balanced partnerships with hubbies or companions, as in much the exact same fashion, did the wedded guys that see our saunas.
' Are you certain you wish to do that?'
' You're not crazy with him, are you?' she tested me.
I was really suspicious, yet claimed absolutely nothing.
' What regarding your chemistry level? I desire Peter's infants,' she claimed cheerfully, 'lots of them.'
' Well ... I love him. I assume.'
' Isn't it a situation of Oediphus complicated? I suggest you should have missed out on having your daddy in your life. You on your own informed me Peter advised you of him.'
There was a happy ending to this tale. Gi informed me that she made the best blunder of her life when she presented Peter to Nari.
' What d'you indicate? I never ever stated anything like that.' I claimed absolutely nothing.
' No,' I responded to extra emphatically than I suggested. We looked at each various other for some time.

Here are five quick thoughts ion Monday night's premiere of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon:"
1. "Starring": Without calling much attention to it, Fallon went back to this much more showbizzy word in his show's title — the way it used to be in Johnny Carson's day (and before). Jay Leno's show was called "The Tonight Show WITH Jay Leno." The difference between "starring" and "with" is almost negligible, unless it signals a more profound commitment to making "Tonight" less about the desk and the interviews and more of a sketch-based variety musical hour given to the whims of improv. Which it most certainly does.
2. Theme song and set design: This was the most difficult transition for me. I miss the bangin' intro music from Fallon's "Late Night" show and I miss the polished hardwood floors of his old set. Other than that, it's a fairly standard "Tonight Show" upgrade. The Roots' new theme song (accompanied by footage from director Spike Lee that more or less resembles decades of various "Saturday Night Live" intros, in which the star ambles about a busy New York at night) is far groovier than Leno's; the "hey-hey-hey-hey" refrain reminded me vaguely of an old riff from "The Electric Company," which I mean as compliment, not a complaint.
3. Vertigo: Though it's got a really nice view of New York at sunset, I was deeply worried for everyone squeezed onto the 30 Rock roof for U2's performance — a small but physically active audience, a busy crew, NBC pages, Fallon himself and U2. The whole thing appeared to be one wind gust away from disaster. Jimmy, please don't take your friends to the roof. Acrophobes everywhere are begging you.
4. Two monologues, two Fallons: The first monologue featured the Jimmy Fallon who's always eager to please, whose niceness has been duly rewarded with a trophy at a school assembly, with family and (many) friends present. It verged on sappy and seemed aimed at viewers who have never, ever heard of Jimmy Fallon. It was smart of him to then dart back behind his big blue curtain and come out for a second monologue — all business, mostly Winter Olympic jokes, and fairly funny.
5. The '90s are now perfectly suitable for nostalgia trips: Do you instantly get jokes where "lesbian Screech" is the punchline? Are you sentimental for the earlier days of hip-hop dancing, circa 1991? Have you spent the last 30 years anticipating every new release by U2? Then your day has finally come, pop-culture Gen-Xer (and leading-edge millennial). Your "Tonight Show" is here.

SPRINGFIELD -- Saying Wednesday that a no-frills House Democratic budget shortchanges education and social services, Senate Democrats passing a non-binding resolution deeming the plan unacceptable.
By DOUG FINKE
SPRINGFIELD -- Saying Wednesday that a no-frills House Democratic budget shortchanges education and social services, Senate Democrats passing a non-binding resolution deeming the plan unacceptable.
But if the maneuver was meant to jump-start stalled budget talks it didn't work.
Gov. Rod Blagojevich and the four legislative leaders met again Wednesday and again didn't talk about a spending plan for the fiscal year that begins July 1. And House Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago, reiterated that the House plan is currently the only proposal in play.
The Senate resolution blasted the House Democrats' budget for not providing adequate funding for education, senior citizen programs, prescription drugs, the developmentally disabled and to physicians treating children enrolled in the state's All Kids health program.
"The speaker said (the House budget) is the high-water mark," said Senate President Emil Jones, D-Chicago. "This resolution sends a clear message that the high-water budget they are talking about is really a low-water budget that the Senate is going to reject."
Jones later said the House budget — which is stalled in that chamber through a parliamentary maneuver — is "dead on arrival" if it ever gets to the Senate for a vote.
Wednesday's resolution passed on a 33-19 vote with two senators — both Democrats — voting "present." Only Democrats voted for the resolution.
Republicans condemned the measure as meaningless posturing.
"Most people back home could care less about this resolution, this gamesmanship and this silly, egotistical back and forth between the leaders and the governor," said Sen. Dan Cronin, R-Elmhurst. "This process is shameful."
For weeks, Madigan has repeated that the House passed a budget and that the Senate should consider it. He said it is the most expansive spending plan that can get out of the House now that a supermajority that includes Republican votes is needed to approve a budget.
He didn't back off of that position after Wednesday's Senate vote.
"The House has passed a budget," Madigan said. "It is the only budget that has been passed by either chamber."
Madigan said it appeared the Senate resolution was "certain people grasping at straws."
"There was a decision made in the Senate," he said. "Where they go from that, I don't know. There was no attempt in the Senate to pass a budget bill today."
Jones, though, said Senate Democrats are working on a one-month spending plan to keep essential services running if the impasse continues into July. The current state budget expires June 30, and with it, the state's legal authority to write checks for most state expenses.
"We don't want those persons who need the vital services of state government harmed if there is going to be a budget impasse," Jones said.
But Madigan said negotiators should seek to craft a full-year budget during the 10 days remaining in the state's budget year.
It didn't happen Wednesday, as the meeting between Blagojevich and the legislative leaders focused on tax increment financing districts in Cook County.
"It's getting to the point where it's embarrassing and actually a bit disgusting," said House Republican Leader Tom Cross of Oswego. "We're not getting anywhere. We need to be passing a budget, and we're not even close to it. We're going in circles."
Said Madigan: "There's 10 days left before the end of the current budget. It might seem appropriate we start talking about a budget for the next fiscal year."
Blagojevich and the four leaders are scheduled to meet today to discuss funding for Chicago mass transit. The Senate adjourned Wednesday and will not return to Springfield until Tuesday, five days before the fiscal 2007 budget expires.

A water tower, a sandy beach stretching for 14 kilometres, stunning terrain dominated by sand dunes up to 20 metres in height, and outstanding natural beauty. The East Frisian island of Langeoog's special charm makes it a popular choice for holidays.
Langeoog, nestled between the coastal wetlands and the sea and covering barely 20 square kilometres, has always been at the mercy of Mother Nature, and yet it is the only East Frisian island that still manages without coastal defences. But you are quite safe on Langeoog. This is because the dunes facing out to sea form a natural protective barrier, and the Flinthörn and Osterdeich embankments on the mudflats side shelter the island from the North Sea's storm tides. During the summer season, you have the chance to visit the island's most famous landmark, a water tower built in 1909, and enjoy stunning panoramic views. The Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park can be seen in all its natural beauty and with a little luck, you should also be able to make out one of Germany's largest herring gull colonies.
There are no cars on Langeoog and bicycles are also banned on both the island's main shopping streets during the high season – perfect conditions for enjoying a breath of fresh North Sea air and a relaxing stroll around the island's shops. Anyone with an interest in the island's history should check out Langeoog Maritime Museum, which incorporates a large North Sea aquarium. A wonderful experience for all the family.
There is a quirky charm in the way Langeoog's swimming beaches are divided into different areas, such as the non-smoking beach for example. Other sections are reserved for young people, surfers, dogs, people playing sports and kite flyers. A stretch of sand to suit everyone.

When we went down 14-0 in the first quarter, all the years of being a frustrated diehard Seahawks fan came flooding back. I screamed and yelled at the ineptitude. I slammed my remote down into the couch pillow (at least I used some common sense while acting like a douche) and walked out of the room. I needed to take a breather. I got on my flight simulator and whisked myself away to some cyberland high above the cyberclouds in my cyber F4U-1D Corsair.
The sound of those pistons is like a soothing liquor being poured down my gullet.
So after a successful landing at some cyberairport, I was ready to face the music. As bad as the game was going to be, I was going to watch the rest unfold.
And unfold it did.
This team has clearly defined itself as having NO relation to those under-achieving, mediocre, Johnny-Come-Lately's of years past. Any one of those teams would have been smoked last Sunday to the tune of 35-7 or something to that effect. This team can get down, but are never, ever out.
Yet, all this week, I've had a bad feeling that the Seahawks 2012 journey will come to and end in Atlanta. I've listened to those smarter than I am go over the matchups. There are valid points to be made by both sides why they think their team will win. For me, it comes down to a few factors. Losing Clemons is HUGE. Losing Hauschka could prove to be the difference. Hopefully not, but he could be. I think the Falcons are spittin' mad over all the talk how HOT the Seahawks are and all you hear about the NFC's #1 seed is how they have failed to advance in the playoffs their past 4 tries. Our corners are the perfect kryptonite to their big receivers, but it's not their receivers I'm concerned with. Gonzalez and anybody else Trufant and our LB's will have to cover.
I think Magic Russ will still be impressive. He will find his touchdowns, and run for chunks at a time, keeping the chains moving. I also expect Lynch to have another 100+ yard performance.
It will likely be a fun, high-scoring affair by both teams, and a really fun game for the country to watch.
I'm just afraid we will fall short this Sunday. If I'm wrong, there's no crow to eat. I won't be surprised if we win. It's just been one of those years, and the magic could continue onto the NFC Championship. I'm going to go with my gut this time and say the Seahawks put up another valiant effort but fall a bit short in the points department.
Aros' Fearless Prediction: Seahawks 28 - Falcons 31
Aros' Fearless Record: 12-5
