How To: Install No-Frills Drip Irrigation

Solving a Dilemma This is a simple how-to for a cost effective drip irrigation system for your garden. My motivation to set up my garden for drip irrigation was pretty simple. In the summer, it gets to 90+ degrees outside, and my 50’ garden hose didn’t reach the far extents where I have the majority of my large trees. I noticed a large amount of the water I applied to the trees just ran off and did absolutely nothing. This was a huge waste of resources.

How To: Carve Saved Passwords Using Cain

I've previously mentioned how saving browser passwords is a bad idea, but I never went into much detail as to why. Passwords that are saved in your browser can be carved out and stolen very easily. In fact, even passwords you save for instant messaging and Wi-Fi are vulnerable. Windows is very inefficient with the way it stores passwords—it doesn't store them in key-vaults, nor does it encrypt them. You're left with passwords residing in memory and filespace that's unencrypted.

News: Irving shows his affectionate side

Knoxville (dressed up as Irving Zisman) goes to an undergarment store (such as Victoria's Secret where they let the boyfriends see the items that are tried on) with Spike (as an old woman) and Spike tries on a bra. When "she" shows Irving the bra he gets all hot and bothered and joins her in the dressing room. They make sex noises (ohhh yeahhh) and disturb the employees (who hopefully find themselves bewildered). When Irving leaves, he puts a cigarette in his mouth and Spike comes out fluster...

After reading more about it, I thought it was pretty incredible how the attackers had pulled this off.

Basically, some devs were using hacked Xcod...
