![]() Here is a screenshot of the initial communication upon booting the system (between 192.168.214.1 192.168.214.134 on port 443): When in doubt simply booting a copy of the machine in question in a controlled network environment (no Internet access!) would yield some instant communications that would tip you off. The program will periodically send activity reports to that IP address based on how its been configured. Although you cannot easily see the contents, an initial or periodic communication to that IP address would be excellent indication that eBlaster is installed. This network traffic is sent via TCP port 443 in an SSL wrapper. NetRange: 209.61.133.192 - 209.61.133.223Īfter the DNS request, there is an initial posting of data to the remote server, most likely for licensing validity.

The file is always in the root of the randomly generated folder under "\windows\system32". One of the easiest ways to "detect" whether eBlaster has been installed, is to attempt to locate a simple text logfile that is created by the program. dll files dropped into the "\windows\system32" folder. Each installation I performed, caused all of these files and folders to get random names. The eighth file is in the subfolder named "canunsec" seen above. The image below is an example of a folder randomly named "subitvox" under the "\windows\system32" folder: dll's or files with misleading file extensions. ![]() There are eight files installed into this folder during the installation, of which one is an executable (admin control panel), while the rest or either. In all of my testing the software always installs some of the required files into a randomly named subfolder located in the "\windows\system32" folder. The eBlaster program uses some random folder/file naming techniques to make it a little more difficult to detect or locate. Installation of eBlaster is fairly simple and merely requires a registration key and an email address to where the activity reports will be sent. and then to send a report of that activity via email: The main function of the program is to record all user activity such as screenshots, emails, instant messages, etc. The following is some basic oberservations of a forensic analysis of a computer with eBlaster installed.ĮBlaster can be installed remotely (SpectorPro cannot) by preconfiguring it with all the necessary options and then sent or given to someone to be installed. The software is frequently changed so it remains undetectable by common anti-virus software. The main differences between the two is eBlaster is designed for remote installations and reports of activity to be delivered by email, whereas SpectorPro is designed for someone who has physical access to the monitored computer to review the reports.ĮBlater and Spector Pro are very powerful. They also make a product named Spector Pro, which is very similar.

They asked if monsters or medieval contraptions were be a better fit. In one of the calls, the partner mentioned robots weren't particularly appealing to a lot of people and would pose marketing challenges. The difficulties in taming the physics system and combining parts into one cohesive unit would be the largest technical challenge the game would face, but slowly the problems were overcome.Īt this time, Luke was also discussing the game with a potential partner. The setting itself was also unclear, and the art direction wobbled between cel-shaded-like visuals and a simpler direction.Īfter some hesitation, Luke went in the direction of making OR-BE himself more complex, and using physics-based attachments instead of choosing various upgrades from a grid of possible powers and modifiers. A couple different control types were attempted, and it was pretty fun to smash through walls, jump high in the air and slam down, and use collected debris to take down other buildings.īut something was missing, and Luke was distressed by the lack of replayability outside of the destruction itself being satisfying. ![]() OR-BE gained many powers, including a Katamari-like ability to absorb broken pieces into a larger and larger ball of debris. While messing around with different ideas, using a rolling sphere to smash through the buildings and use a vortex to pull the debris towards the sphere was quite fun, so Luke continued that direction for a few weeks, with the sphere morphing into an Obliteration Robot: Ballistic Edition. He prototyped both for a short while and decided on the destruction game.Īfter getting the initial structure system implemented without too much trouble, the next big decision was what the moment-to-moment gameplay would be. Nearly 10 years later, Luke was beginning a big new project and had to choose between a variation of Speed Demons (racing with an overhead viewpoint) or a destruction-based game. ![]() About 6 months after last working on RFG, Luke left Volition to form Radiangames, a one-man independent studio. He continued to work on RFG and its DLC for the next 5 years, both as lead tech designer and lead multiplayer designer. A couple years later, he joined Volition as a designer on The Punisher, then started to work on Red Faction: Guerrilla in late 2004 (the 4th member of the team at the time).

It flies through the air more slowly, has a low bounce and is more difficult to curl. Water absorption test: A wet and heavy ball behaves quite differently from a dry one. The difference between the highest and the lowest diameter must be within very strict limits.įIFA Approved Standard: max. The diameter of the ball is measured in 16 different places, after which the average is calculated. The panel shape harmonizes the energy displacement and minimizes the amount of corners, while the larger panels allow for a cleaner kicking area. The more perfect the sphere is, the more balanced a ball will be in flight, the higher will be its accuracy and the predictability of its flight. Permanent roundness test: Only a perfectly round ball allows a player to fully capitalize on his skills. The FIFA Approved Standard: 68.5 cm – 69.5 cm In order to calculate the average circumference, each individual match ball is measured at 10 different points. The new 14-panel configuration, featuring fewer seams, makes the ball perform significantly more uniformly, no matter where the ball is hit.Ĭircumference test: A consistent circumference is important to allow optimal control during dribbling or driving a football. A high-speed camera is set up parallel to the impact to analyze the impact on the ball. The machine is able to repeat an identical kick in the exact same angle and with exactly the same speed and power, time and time again. The robotic leg: The Adidas football laboratory in Scheinfeld features a high-tech robotic leg which is used for a variety of ball tests. Tests confirmed that Adidas Europass does not only meet these “FIFA Approved” standards, it exceeds practically all of them. Scientific tests were conducted in the Adidas football laboratory in Scheinfeld and also by the Sports Technology Research Group of the University of Loughborough, one of the leading institutions of its kind worldwide. The Adidas Innovation Team has rigorously tested the new Euro 2008 match ball, firstly under laboratory conditions, and later with professional football players and clubs on the field of play.

I appreciated all of their support, but I finally figured out how to get it working again.Īt some point in between emails I had decided to go into the iCloud System Preferences and turn off only Documents & Data and I happened to have the Mobile Documents folder open, and noticed that there was a change to the folder name. Fed up I contacted AgileBits support team and after multiple back and forth emails I believe that I had stumped them. The next day I tried the above solution again and it did not work. I had wasted most of my Saturday trying to figure this out, and finally threw in the towel. Go back into the iOS app and re-enable iCloud sync.Wait about 20 minutes to give iCloud time to run the initial sync to all devices. YubiKey products work in tandem with LastPass and have been able to help people worldwide protect their personal online accounts.On the Mac, go back to the Sync preferences, and enable iCloud.Check the box to remove the data from iCloud and confirm that you want to disable sync.On the Mac, open 1Password 4 for Mac, and click the 1Password menu, then Preferences.On your iOS devices, open 1Password 4 for iOS, tap Settings > Sync > Sync Service and tap 'Disable Sync’.Please ensure that Documents and Data is enabled on all computers and devices.Please ensure that you are logged in with the same iCloud account on all computers and devices.I turned to trying to find the answer on the web, and followed the advice, multiple times, that was given on AgileBits Forums: On her computer I went into the local iCloud folder (~/Library/Mobile Documents) and deleted the two folders that had looked like thisĪt this point I was at a loss for words. I exported the data from 1Password on her Macbook to her desktop so I had a copy of the data and then removed every trace of 1Password from her computer, stopped syncing the data to iCloud from her devices and deleted the iOS apps from her iPhone and iPad. What followed next was hours of frustration trying to get all her devices to sync seamlessly. I tried her iPad and got the same results. ![]() I closed the app, reopened it and checked again still the same old info.

I’d be interested in hearing from the brains trust here about your experience moving from 1Password to one of these or other options you thing would tick the boxes.

I stumbled upon this yesterday –, an audiobooks website with some of your favorite actors reading their favorite classics: ![]() ![]() ![]() I used to think I could only write in the morning because that was when I was freshest. For example, the prison work inspired me to write psychological suspense, which led to a contract with Penguin.Īnother tip is to explore your ‘best’ writing time. You might well find that a paid part-time job actually feeds your writing. I also ran writing classes round my kitchen table and worked into the small hours as a tutor for online writing courses. ![]() Later, after my divorce, I took a job as a writer in a prison, which, again, helped pay the bills but gave me two days a week to write novels. For example, before I was published as an author, I used to write regular features for a women’s magazine in the morning and then spend my afternoons writing novels in the hope of getting published. ![]() Ideally, this job should be creative, otherwise you might find your soul being sucked out of you. If you don’t have a book contract that provides you with peace of mind, the best piece of advice I can offer is to have a part-time job that can just about pay the bills while giving you enough hours in the day to write. Financial concerns by Jane CorryĪs a writer, I’ve gone through periods of earning quite a lot of money and times when I‘ve rooted through my old handbags, hoping to find some spare change. He was selected for the WriteNow 2017 programme and is writing a memoir. And you don’t want your writing to be tiring, you want it to be inspiring. Set realistic goals and make sacrifices evenings or weekends but not both. Let yourself enjoy it but know that if you didn’t get any time off, you might end up resenting it and resenting something you love would be awful. Now, I’m cheating because this is really a combination of tip one and tip two, but balance is key. But I was exhausted, so didn’t write anything else for weeks and, the real kick to the gut, the chapter was edited out entirely, probably because I was more concerned with typing words to meet targets than to inspire readers. After seven precious weekend hours, I succeeded. I once told myself I wasn’t allowed to leave the library until I'd finished the chapter I was working on. This is where having an achievable plan comes in. ![]() That’s all well and good, I hear you say, but what if I listen to myself too much and never sit down to write? Good question (if I do say so myself), and the answer is in my second tip. There were certain evenings when I really felt like I should write but I didn’t want to. Whichever way you cut it, trying to write a book and maintain a job at the same time can feel like trying to ride a bicycle and write a book at the same time.įor this reason, my first tip is make sure you enjoy it. Work by Mohsin Zaidiįirst thing first: there is no magic formula. Sara Collins 's debut novel The Confessions of Frannie Langton was published in April 2019. Approach whatever that is in a spirit of acceptance, and you will build your novel, word by word. I suppose the best advice for busy parents who want to write is: do what you can, when you can. The only regret I have is that I left it so long. But you won’t write anything if you don’t start. If she had to write what she could fit in, you can too. I read once that Alice Munro wrote short stories instead of novels because as a mother of small children her time was measured in fragments. The second step is to accept your limitations. Mark it on your calendar think of it as making an appointment with your own ambition. Guided by that idea, you can schedule writing into whatever time you have to spare, without worrying about whether it’s enough. The first step is accepting that it might be slow, but that it will be possible. But after a milestone birthday, and my youngest child starting secondary school, my attitude changed. It’s no good having a room of your own if it’s forever being invaded by the demands of school drop-offs, or homework, or four out of five children ill with chicken pox at the same time as you have a major deal to negotiate at work. When my children were younger I worked full time as a lawyer, convinced that I’d always be too busy to attempt to write a novel. ![]() ![]() ![]() Predictors of hospital mortality in the global registry of acute coronary events.

The mortality rate among patients with TIMI grade 2 flow was 7.4 percent, and the rate among those with TIMI grade 3 flow was 4.4 percent (P 0.08). Compared with the simpler TIMI RS, the GRACERS was more accurate in predicting long-term mortality. The use of RSs revealed a fair to good discriminatory accuracy in predicting both short-term and long-term major adverse cardiac events in Asian patients with MI. Stratification by tertiles of GRACERS furnished greater prognostic information versus risk assessment by the TIMI RS. GRACE RS performed significantly better than the TIMIRS in predicting 3-year mortality in NSTEMI (p = 0.035) and 1-year and 3-year mortality in STEMI (p = 0.028 and 0.009, respectively). The GRACE RS worked well in predicting short-term and long-term death (C-statistics range 0.710 to 0.789) and triple (death, MI, and stroke) endpoints (C-statistics range 0.695 to 0.764) in both subsets of MI. Īlthough the risk profile of our population (median TIMI score = 5 for STEMI, 4 for NSTEMI, and median GRACE score = 164) was higher, the in-hospital mortality (7.1% for NSTEMI and 6.7% for STEMI) was comparable to that predicted by GRACE RS. We calculated the TIMI and GRACE RSs for 726 consecutive patients with MI. The purpose of this study is to compare the usefulness of these two scores in risk stratification and prediction of long-term (up to 3 years) outcomes for Chinese patients with myocardial infarction (MI). Little is known about the long-term prognostic values of both thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) and Global Registry of Acute Cardiac Events (GRACE) risk scores (RSs) to the Asian ethnicity. ![]() |
