Sentencing is scheduled for Sept. 14. HMHS Britannic - The "Forgotten Sister" The Olympic and Titanic have been built. The HMHS (His Majesty's Hospital Ship) Britannic was the third " wonder ship" to be built. Originally, the ship was to be named " Gigantic ", but due to the loss of the Titanic, her name was changed to Britannic. The White Star Line knew if they were to keep ahead in the race across the Atlantic the new liner would have to be more magnificent than her older sisters.

henrichfritz: How to Black Hawk Online Games:Norway Terrorist Admits to Online Game Addiction http://www.wikihow.com/Black-Hawk-Online-Games:Norway-Terrorist-Admits-to-Online-Game-Addiction  Authorities have discovered computer logs that show Breivik has spent 8,700 hours playing war games from 2006 to 2010. In fact, records show that he played 500 hours of World of Warcraft between November 2010-April 2011 alone. Aside from playing WoW, Breivik was also into Elder Scrolls, Modern Warfare, Warhammer and Dragon Age. According to him, he spent all his time playing in the months prior to his July 22 attacks. Ads by Google Brain Training Games  Improve memory with scientifically designed brain exercises. www.lumosity.com 2 Breivik started playing WoW in 2006 and authorities are inclined to believe that he played the game for up to 12 hours per day in a 2-year period. It should also be noted that he used terms from the game in the 'manifesto' he wrote. According to Breivik, playing war games was only to hide his terrorist plans. He added that he devoted almost one year in playing games to reward himself. 3 Now, police are trying to investigate if Breivik has been in touch with other gamers or if he belongs to a player group through obtaining information from game manufacturers. This is because certain information show that he has been logged onto 2 computer units at the same time - Breivik might have paid others to play on behalf of him. 4 WoW is the most popular role-playing game in the world, boasting of over 10 million registered users (70,000 of which are in Norway). People are now anxious to know what possible factors could have affected Breivik and twisted his mindset because experts have already warned of the possible damaging effects from spending much time on playing computer games. 5 On Friday, the court ordered that Breivik be placed under psychiatric observation to know his mental state prior to the start of trials. 6 During the last part of 2011, a

http://www.spamhaus.org/news/article/687/how-hosting-providers-can-battle-fraudulent-sign-ups Hosting providers are increasingly asking Spamhaus how they can prevent so-called "fraudulent sign-ups" -- new customers whose only intention is to spam, host malware, host botnet controllers, or engage in other activities that are forbidden by the hosting provider's acceptable use policy (AUP). Such customers normally target cheap VPS and cloud hosting with automated sign-up procedures. These customers know that their accounts will be terminated swiftly when the host becomes aware of their activities, so they usually use stolen credit cards or compromised Paypal accounts to obtain service. This allows them to hide their real identities and avoid spending their own funds. Spamhaus has received several independent reports from hosting providers that the volume of such fraudulent sign-ups has increased dramatically in the past few months. Some hosting providers report that 50% of all new subscriptions are fraudulent -- every second subscription. No hosting company is immune, neither small local operations nor large multinational hosting firms with data centers on several continents. While Spamhaus' mission is to protect internet users and organizations from spam and other cyber-threats, we lack the resources and time to act as an abuse reporting service (FBL - Feedback Loop) or a consulting company. However, we would like to do what we can to help. This article provides some tips to help hosting providers prevent fraudulent sign-ups and increase the detection rate for such sign-ups. These tips are not a solution, but should help mitigate the damage and administrative costs caused by criminals. Verify User Information First, create and implement a verification mechanism for automated sign-ups. It should verify at least some personal information from new subscriptions. For example: Customer email address (by sending an email with a confirmation link) Customer phone nu

BLACK HAWK REVIEWS - ONLINE GAMES: SPACEWAR! REMAKE AFTER 50 YEARS // Current TV 2012-05-12T07:51:18Z "MIT students celebrated the golden anniversary of Spacewar! - which is one of the first video games in history - by recreating it on a computer that can be handled on the palm of your hand. Four students of MIT began creating the game Spacewar! during their free time in 1961 and finished it in February 1962. It was built on the Digital Equipment PDP-1, a computer unit around the size of an ordinary refrigerator. The game features two spaceships attempting to shoot each other down, with one of the spaceships under the control of the player. Massachusetts' engineering students showcased their work at the museum of MIT. This process of turning a 50-year old game to a modern one is almost likened to digital archeology. It must be difficult to port it into a modern programming language for it is very low-level considering the time it was created. In addition to that, it used a lot of tricks specific to the machine it was first built on due to the limitations they had on the software.
