Ibeks – Ein Mikrofon, ein Computer, ein Mann. Ibeks – Ein Mann und sein Mikrofon kämpfen für anständige Synchros. Was hat das wohl zu bedeuten? Lasst euch überraschen, eines meiner geplanten Dinge wird schon bald fertig sein… und dann wird SiW-mäßig gefeiert, echt jetz!

Ida invited me over to hers for a sleepover, sure I thought, I did not have any better plans anyway. Come to think of it, I did not have any plans at all. So with my bottle of Malibu in one hand and my lovely bag in the other, I showed up at her place around 7ish pm. Ida, meself and Siw, who is Ida’s mum, were sitting chatting, laughing and drinking, then went over to some makeuping and then had a wicked photoshoot. Siw needed some new pics of herself, and with my awesome camera Mr. Poynter combined with my awesome makeuping skills we created magic.

The Model

We used to hang out all the time, being like the fantastic four, only we’re three, when they lived in the forest next to us. But they moved, and I moved overseas, so it’s very rare we hang out like this anymore. It was really nice, plus we’re totally epic.

Fierceness

All done shooting, having taken tons of pictures of Siw, Ida and me, we drank some more before heading out, going to Renate’s house (not me Renate obviously, but another one) where she, Vivian, Kennet, Marita, Hege and Laila were drinking. Was a really fun night, emptied my Malibu, finally(!) and got yeah nicely drunk, tho not hungover at all today – yay me!

Ida, me, Kennet, Marita & Vivian

I was lucky enough to get to play some guitar, and like the last time I played, I feel I nailed it! Just look at the girl’s concentration!! It did not sound horrific, and when the rest of the people there that night started singing out loud, we knew there and then, that boy – we’re talented!

Last nights entertainment

Took a really nice picture of Ida during our photoshoot, check it out on my deviant.

How was your weekend?

Jak już wcześniej pisałam jesteśmy partnerem Akcji Rok Ambitnych Kobiet i zaprojektowaliśmy System Identyfikacji Wizualnej Akcji.

Prace nad logiem Akcji przebiegały dość sprawnie. Logo otrzymało klasyczny, elegancki kształt i niebiesko- bordowe barwy:

Ale pierwsza wersja loga przygotowana była w zupełnie innej konwencji niż logo, które ostatecznie identyfikuje Akcję.

Naszą pierwszą propozycją był czarno-biały symbol kobiety, zdobywającej szczyty gór – odważnej, pewnej siebie, spełnionej, która chce zdobyć szczyt i go zdobywa. Kobieta trzyma flagę, którą wbije na szczycie, który zdobędzie. Inspiracją do tej wersji loga były słowa kobieta, zwycięstwo, dążenie do celu, skuteczność w działaniu:

Czarno-białe logo z kobietą, zdobywającą szczyt spotkało się między innymi z taką opinią:

Kobieta przedstawiona na przygotowanych propozycjach kojarzy się z kominem fabryki, której wiatr wieje w twarz lub się cofa. Więc ten motyw odpada. Ponieważ jest to kobieca akcja może trochę dodać finezyjnej czcionki lub jakiegoś akcentu stylowego. To ma się kojarzyć z elegancją i dobrym stylem.

Jestem ciekawa jakie jest Wasze zdanie na temat logo Akcji Rok Ambitnych Kobiet, które logo byście wybrali oraz czy pierwsza wersja loga kojarzy Wam się z kobietą zdobywającą szczyty czy z dymiącym kominem

Zapraszam do głosowania!

From the people who brought us key Pentagon documents on Strategic Information Warfare (SIW) and advisories on igniting wars with China and other ’super regions’, now comes a document published in late March of 2009 named the ‘Initial Evaluation of the Cities Readiness Initiative’. Published just a month before the recent swine flu outbreak in Mexico, the document arrives just in time to deal with the response and readiness of cities in case of a bio-terrorist attack or, as now applies, a naturally occurring disease outbreak.

	RAND produced the “Initial Evaluation of the Cities Readiness Initiative.”

In the study that the RAND-corporation did at the request of the Centres for Disease Control (CDC) on the existing Cities Readiness Initiative, the infamous globalist think- tank provided a favourable review of the existing program but added a few improvements of its own. Besides several mentions of emergency response in regards to disease outbreaks- amongst which a disturbing mention of mass vaccination plans- the main thread of the piece points to an increased central planning of actions as opposed to a decentralised response coordination. The tone is set at the very start of the ‘technical report’, where the authors explain:

‘Over the past decade, concern about the threat of bio-terrorism, pandemics, and other large-scale natural disasters has spurred large federal investments in state and local response capabilities.’

‘Since 2004′, the report continues, ‘CRI (Cities Readiness Initiative) has expended some $300 million to improve the ability of the nation’s largest metropolitan regions to provide life-saving medications in the event of a large-scale bio-terrorist attack or naturally occurring disease outbreak. Administered by the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) Division of Strategic National Stockpile (DSNS), CRI seeks to help awardees respond to a large-scale anthrax attack or other large-scale public health emergency by providing antibiotics and other life-saving medical supplies to 100 percent of a planning jurisdiction’s population within a 48-hour time frame. The program currently includes 72 metropolitan regions and covers an estimated 57 percent of the of the U.S. population.’

Related to the extend of the CDC’s jurisdiction in times of such an emergency is the Division of Strategic National Stockpile (DSNS), that acts as a medical reserve in case local and state medical resources become exhausted. Lisa Schnirring, a staff writer for the Center for Infectious Disease Research & Policy, sums up the most prominent findings by RAND’s researchers:

‘The program’s focus on a single scenario- an aerosol anthrax attack- along with specific targets has helped recipients prioritize their resources and reach out to vital partners, the authors reported. However, they found that areas with decentralized public health systems had a harder time forging relationships with other first responders, often because of the sheer number of jurisdictions.’

RAND therefore advises more central planning in regards to emergency response. Bio- terror attacks and disease outbreak are mentioned in the same breath so as to bring out a common and federal response for both later on. In a so-called ‘working paper’ issued by the RAND corporation prepared for the U.S. Department of Health in 2007, several drills are being proposed where different departments (CDC/DSNS and others) can practise and streamline their efforts. Under the headline ‘Embedding Drills in Routine and Small- Scale Events Might Increase Relevance’, the report mentions some earlier situations in which real events were combined with emergency response drills: (page 11):

‘Several jurisdictions are already using non-routine practises or small-scale emergencies to test large-scale response capabilities. For example, several jurisdictions used the influenza vaccine shortfall of 2004 as an opportunity to test the public health department’s incident command structure during an effort to mass vaccinate a large number of individuals in a single day (Seid. et al., 2006). Other jurisdictions have used annual flu clinics to test mass dispensing procedures for the SNS-program, which alleviates some of the costs associated with recruiting volunteers to act as test patients.’

In the same RAND- working paper, the authors conclude that an adequate mass counter- measure response is far from perfected and that further drills may be necessary in order to improve on the details (page 49):

‘While there is strong evidence that CRI (Cities Readiness Initiative) has improved planning for mass countermeasure dispensing, we were unable to assess jurisdictions’ ability to implement their mass dispensing plans in emergency conditions. Given the rarity of large-scale public health emergencies, demonstrations of these operational capabilities must come largely through exercises.’

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

The RAND people advise more frequently held exercises by lack of real emergencies, to test the ability for mass dispensing plans (read: mass vaccination efforts). As we learned under the report’s ‘Embedding Drills in Routine and Small-Scale Events Might Increase Relevance’, real events can be used to test and further improve their effectiveness.

Although a large-scale exercise might be difficult to achieve in the western world, such exercises are far easier to do in developing countries- where there is more open and widespread corruption and less constitutional boundaries holding you back. In March of 2007 the Rockefeller Foundation provided financial support through their ‘Disease Surveillance Networks Initiative’ to the RAND corporation ‘to conduct pandemic simulation exercises, both at a country-level as well as across the region.’, reports the Rockefeller Foundation’s website. On March 14 2007 the Foundation released a document called ‘Southeast Asian Nations Conduct Joint Exercise in Cambodia to Improve Flu Pandemic Response’. In this document, the infrastructure of the operation is explained:

‘Using techniques similar to those in modern war-gaming, the tabletop exercise was designed to foster cooperation among countries in the Mekong Basin Disease Surveillance Network (MBDS), the region seen as the most likely source of a potentially devastating flu pandemic such as avian flu. The exercise also helped identify gaps and weaknesses in systems for detecting, monitoring, tracking and containing the deadly disease. Senior Officials from the governments of Cambodia, China, Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar and Thailand- including officials from the ministries of health, foreign affairs, agriculture, tourism and security as well as representatives from the UN, UNICEF, UNSIC, UNOCHA and a regional institute– participated today and yesterday in the exercise, which they designed and ran in collaboration with health specialists from the RAND corporation. The event was sponsored by the Nuclear Threat Initiative’s Global Health and Security Initiative, with additional funding from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Rockefeller Foundation. The exercise is a component of the MBDS, which was developed with support from the Rockefeller Foundation.’

As we have learned from the tragic events of 911, real threats and emergency response drills are not mutually exclusive as one cloaks the other. More often than not the edges are blurred, so it is impossible to say where the real event ends and the exercise begins and vice versa. This is the true curtain of fog behind which the globalists operate. As all of the different divisions are compartmentalised to focus on their small part within the great infrastructure, only the people at the very top have the entire map laid down in front of them on which they move the chess pieces around according to their designs. In light of the recent swine flu outbreak, we’re obviously experiencing a huge psyop drill to both assess the current status of centrally planned coordination of countermeasures (such as mass vaccinations) and acclimate the general public to such central coordinated actions in case of emergencies, whether real or feigned. But there is a third reason for such a psyop- and it fits in perfectly with the global agenda being pushed by the very same institutions that fostered the economic crisis, and are now crying for world government.

Almost six months after the mass exercise in Southeast Asia, the Foundation published another document called The Global Challenge of Health Systems. It is a summary of Pocantico II- a meeting held under auspices of the Rockefeller Foundation with high- ranking attendees including the Deputy Secretary General of the UN, Dr. Asha-Rose Migiro. In the preface of the publication, the Foundation’s managing director Ariel Pablos-Mendez explains that all attendees are in agreement when it comes to global response and coordination needed for future ‘emergencies’:

‘The participants agreed that the (Rockefeller) Foundation should support efforts to rethink the overall global architecture of health institutions.’

Later on in the report (page 5), the authors elaborate on these ‘efforts’ and recent steps taken to ensure that all heads are pointed in the same direction:

‘Recently a number of initiatives have been launched to help strengthen health systems, including those by Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and a network of ministers of Foreign Affairs. The Rockefeller Foundation itself is supporting a joint initiative of the United Nations and the Council on Foreign Relations to rethink the architecture of international health institutions.’

To assist in this process of ‘rethinking’ this global architecture in regards to global pandemic outbreaks, the report mentions that:

‘…The group agreed there would continue to be the rising threat of global pandemics. While new diseases may be emerging at roughly the same rate as before, the trends of globalisation speed their spread and thus increase the threat of new pandemics. Globalisation trends make it essential for health systems to improve surveillance and develop appropriate rapid response approaches.’

Slowly the picture becomes more clear as yet another crisis is generated and more fear is being pumped into society’s bloodstream. As recent developments have showed, the global financial crisis is used as the perfect pretext for world government. A global pandemic outbreak does the same. A global threat gives the power behind the throne the tools it needs to come up with a global response, and another step towards world dictatorship has been taken.

Due to a recent change in software, I needed to upgrade RAM in all of the older machines in the organization.  To aid me in upgrading 300+ PCs I thought it prudent to make a list of what hardware each PC had.  I have used many inventory tools in the past (the most prominent being SpiceWorks) but by far the best inventory tool I have used is SIW.  This software comes in both free and paid versions, the paid having more features.  The feature that caught my eye for the paid version was the ability to use command line to control SIW.  After reading through the documentation, I made this small script that will e-mail the results of the scan to a inventory e-mail address.

@ECHO OFF
set INPUT=
set /P INPUT=The owner of this PC is: %=%
CLS
echo Creating and sending %INPUT%’s System Report.  Please Waitsiw /log=”%INPUT%” /email=INVENTORY EMAIL ADDRESS/subject=”%INPUT%’s report” /smtp=EMAIL SERVER /silent /nologo
CLS
CLS
ECHO %INPUT%’s Report is sent
Pause

This script allows the user to input their name, which in turn becomes the name of HTML file containing system specs along with the subject of the e-mail.  This batch file also requires the SIW.exe and SIW.lic file along with it to work.  So I threw it all togeather using freeextractor and created an install file.  Keep an eye out on making install files with freeextractor soon!

Wczoraj wrzuciłam na bloga mój Poradnik Marketingowy dla właścicieli małych i średnich firm, można go pobrać tutaj. Jest to bardzo krótka publikacja (20 stron z ilustracjami).

Poradnik jest krótki, ponieważ:

• zawiera skondensowaną dawkę porad marketingowych;
• jego odbiorcami są właściciele małych i średnich firm oraz Samodzielni Przedsiębiorcy, którzy potrzebują porad praktycznych, nie teoretycznych, a ja szanuję ich cenny czas, więc nie zanudzam ich definicjami
• będziemy go drukować z własnych funduszy, więc każda dodatkowa strona to dodatkowy koszt

Poradnik składa się z dziewięciu rozdziałów: Strategia Marketingowa, System Identyfikacji Wizualnej, Strona internetowa, Oferta handlowa, Rejestracja w katalogach internetowych, Reklama w GOOGLE AdWords, PR, Blog firmowy oraz ISO.

Rozdziały kończą się Cennymi wskazówkami, Obowiązkową lekturą oraz P.S. , które zawiera listę usług, które możemy bezpłatnie wykonać, jeżeli ktoś skłonny jest polecić nas swoim znajomym przedsiębiorcom.

Żałuję, że przy rozdziale Oferta handlowa, nie dopisałam książki Hipnotyczny marketing, Joe Vitale, są tam świetne przykłady sales – letterów. Obiecuję, że dopiszę tę pozycję w drugim wydaniu drukowanej wersji Poradnika.

Oprawą graficzną Poradnika i jego składem zajął się Rafał Rzeźniak, który dzielnie wprowadzał moje poprawki (przecinki, kropki itp). Rafał jest autorem wielu folderów, katalogów, opakowań, w zasadzie wszystkie znaczące graficzne realizacje, jakie do tej pory zrobiliśmy zawdzięczamy Rafałowi. Galerie jego prac można obejrzeć na naszej stronie w zakładce Realizacje.

Gdy pisałam Poradnik przypomniały mi się czasy studenckie i pisanie mojej Pracy Magisterskiej. W 2002 roku napisałam 200 stron na temat marketingu internetowego – Internet jako narzędzie marketingu na przykładzie banków. Kusi mnie, żeby po 7 latach powtórzyć badanie ankietowe, które wtedy przeprowadziłam i porównać wyniki, jak postrzegana była bankowości internetowa i Internet 7 lat temu, kiedy wszystko raczkowało i jak jest teraz, gdy Internet rozwija się z niesamowitą prędkością.

Lectia 1 mai este numita si lectia “roothack”. Termenul de roothack reprezinta visul oricarui “ciutan” care a pus mana pe o tastatura si un mouse, pe o conexiune la internet, astfel descoperind frumoasa lume a hi5-ului si a “mess-ului”.

Cu alte cuvinte este procedeul prin care afli ce useri si ce parole au fost introduse de la PC-ul “atacat”.

Pentru inceput o sa ne referim la calculatoare la care avem acces direct, urmand ca in viitor sa va prezint o metoda mai avansata de aflare a parolelor la PC-uri la care nu avem acces decat prin internet.

Pasul1: Se downloadeza urmatorul programel SIW (multumim G. Topala) pe desktop.

Pasul2: Se porneste SIW si se alege optinea “Secrets” din meniul programului.

Pasul3: Dupa obtinerea informatiilor pretioase se trece la roothack-uirea prin urcarea de poze pornografice pe pagina de hi5 a victimei.

Disclaimer: Programul SIW este un software freeware, creat in scopul folosirii sale in operatiuni legitime.. dar din fericire are si aceasta optiune mai “speciala”

Pakiet usług o nazwie KOMPAS Start przygotowaliśmy dla firm, które dopiero rozpoczynają swoją działalność oraz dla firm, które chciałyby zintensyfikować prowadzone przez siebie działania marketingowe, np.: wzmocnić swój wizerunek, zwiększyć sprzedaż produktów i rozpoznawalność swoich marek.

The software in review today is SIW – System Information for Windows.

For all you techies and importantly non techies have you ever wondered what’s inside your computer? Sure enough if it is a desktop you might crank it open someday.But if you are a laptop user like me (who loves his laptop ) or a desktop user who would rather not open the system up just for the heck of it, this is where SIW comes in. It displays everything from the Processor to the RAM installed to BIOS, Windows Version, Serial numbers and much more.

Download Link: SIW is a freeware utility available from www.gtopala.com

The best part about SIW in my opinion is it is a standalone executable. That means you don’t need to install it to run it (note there is an installable version too). That for me just means less registry clutter and one less program to be tracked for uninstalling.

I installed SIW after downloading it from the website above (a quick download) and gave it a run and here is what I found the most interesting (there are a ton of things SIW displays for which I have couple of screenshots attached).

Interesting stuff it points out:

Hardware:

This includes everything from System manufacturer to the PC system type (mobile notebook) to the amount of RAM supported.

Then there are the other usual culprits like the motherboard (serial number), CPU (make, speed, even the technology 0.065µ in my case), the system clock, instructions supported, the RAM installed, Video, printers, battery information and much more. Honestly if you don’t understand it, its ok, be glad with SIW you are one of the few who even know what CPU technology they are using or what is the designed voltage of their battery .

Software:

This includes everything ranging from the OS- the version, the serial number, the product key, to the updates installed on your machine, the applications you have installed, the audio and video codecs you have installed to hold your breath even passwords. Yes you heard it right Passwords!!!

This program can help in password recovery. When I tested this it gave me 3 passwords that had been used on my laptop. This can help you remove private data like passwords so that it is not vulnerable to other attacks by showcasing such information to you.

Other than this I had information on installed databases, scheduled tasks and much much (believe me) more.

Network:

This includes utilities to scan your network, network information, open ports (really useful for admins) as well as ability to search the network.

Conclusion:

So the next time you are wondering if your PC is working too slow and you want to know whether you need a CPU upgrade or RAM upgrade use its internal CPU and Memory usage chart (which also shows CPU temperature) and with information that SIW provides from above, make a calculated decision on what you need changed. You can sure save a lot of bucks.

Other features include shutting down your computer, network traffic stats and Eureka (password tracking again)as well as exporting all data to HTML or CSV(comma seperated values) or text.

So what are you waiting for? Give it a try. Know more about the internals of your system so that the techie who comes to repair your system can’t fool you easily.

Your comments are most welcome.

Gabriel Topala ha creato questo software freeware (giunto alla versione 1.72) per Windows e lo rende disponibile gratuitamente – per uso personale - dal suo sito qui
(se volete potete fare una donazione, ma non è obbligatoria) :

http://www.gtopala.com/ 

A cosa serve SIW?

E’ un software in grado di dirvi molto del vostro computer: Sistema operativo (con il numero id d’installazione nel caso l’aveste perso e vi occorra per poter reinstallare), Applicazioni installate e relative licenze, tutto sull’hardware (quindi tipo di ram installata, scheda video, dischi ecc) e in più ha utility di monitoring del sistema (rete, cpu…).

Uleriori tools molto comodi nel caso siate distratti o smemorati sono quelli che evidenziano le password dei vostri account e un’utility (Eureka) che è in grado di mostravi in chiaro la vostra password se è visualizzata in modalità mascherata (i famosi asterischi o pallini neri).

Lo scopo di Eureka non è scoprire password altrui, serve per poter aiutare nel caso ci siamo dimenticati quale password abbiamo impostato.

Il vantaggio finale è anche quello di poter esportare in Xml o Csv il file di log con tutti i dati che c’interessano, in modo da crearci un database con tutto quello che ci serve avere a portata di mano sul nostro personal.
Ottimo!

Ecco l’elenco di quello che può fare per voi:
