  1. They don't have the database! on BlueSecurity Database Compromised? · · Score: 5, Informative

    From what I am seeing, I am now receiving 1,000s of these stupid "Because you are using the BlueSecurity Software ...." emails .... but they are all being directed to Mike, Jan, Cindy, Lucy, Bobby, and Greg@mydomain.com .... They are NOT directed to MY email address. These addresses that they are using were ONCE entered by an ignorant relative of my onto one of those online greeting card sites, (even mispelled) and those are the addresses that are being spammed. Since I ALSO registered my DOMAIN with BlueSecurity, I would ponder to guess that the spammers are using the domain list, matching it up to ANY email they have in their spam database with that domain and spamming the heck out of it. They HAVE NOT, I repeat, HAVE NOT hit ANY of my REGISTERED email addresses with BlueSecurity. They are only hitting random crap email addresses on my domain. They're shooting in the dark, they're angry, and they're running scared ... and I hope that you all keep up the good work!

  2. My Solution on High Tech Baby Monitoring? · · Score: 1

    Added a couple of IR Cams (No audio) from an EBay sell (they're almost always available, and decent quality - They claim color, but are mostly pink/blue colors ~65$ each). Put them through a 3-cam RF Modulator (~70$) so we can turn on the TV and see how the little one's are doing. Buy a cheap vid card (Winnov Videum, 3 inputs ~30$ on ebay) and some cheap webcam software (WebCam32 -- Not supported, but works fine) ... and you're up and running. Put a few passwords on things for the web stuff ... and don't monitor 24x7 for your own sake. But, if you hear a bump in the night, you can flick on the bedroom TV and see which one is up and if its worth going in to check on 'em. It's also a good trigger for "GET BACK IN BED!"

  3. Why do they recommend a Fume Hood ? on The Amazing Properties of Aerogel · · Score: 1

    In the article on lbl.gov about "How Do You Work With Silica Aerogel Without Breaking It?" they state Nevertheless, it is a good precaution to work in a fume hood ... Wouldn't aerogel be sucked up by the hood if it is nearly as light as air ?
