Moments!<br />" A Glimmer of
Hope While Waiting"!</h2>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
It is a slow
process, but God never stops working. Remembering there is always a reason why
events in your life tend to go the way they do. Remember last week in Moments
we talked about the process that Jesus used to teach, there is always a reason
behind His process. The waiting, may be part of the shaping process you need to
go through. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Philippians 1:6</span>
"And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it
to completion at the day of Jesus Christ". As a sculptor chips away at the
hard exterior of your rough side the new work will eventually be revealed. </div>

Over the past three
years I have encouraged my readers the importance of fostering a relationship
with the Father through the teachings of Jesus Christ. The Bible as a whole
still has something to say. Take a journey back in time while reading the books
of Psalms and Proverbs and the mindset of their writers. Here you will
encompass the heart felt love between man and God. You will become part of the
ongoing work that is displayed as the writers bond with the Father. You will
also find life worthy lessons in Christian conduct and in Psalms finding God's
heart through His compassion and grace. </div>

<br />
DID YOU GET WINDOWS 10 up and running?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I recommend it a little more now that I have had in in use for a week now. I installed it on all my shop computers my work computer and Win tablet. I still have a laptop and the Police Station's to convert along with City Hall's.</div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
Why Windows 10? Much like set on the same Premises as windows 8.1; 10 is a collaboration tool that allows the user to sync the work done on one device and pick it up somewhere else on another device or desktop, including your phone. Android I phone or windows. Through a dropbox or onedrive even on Linux/Ubuntu. Where it will help in industry such as medicine and law enforcement is that each agent can collaborate on a report at the same time, editing and adding or taking away information on that report. The agent or trauma tech can make the report and within seconds the Hospital or station has it. SharePoint has changed for 2013 making it easier for team work on a report or any project.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The industry has a few new tools win Office 2013+ and Win 10 came out. The I and android OS's may have may have sparked a new generation of computing. Windows had no choice but to comply to these changes in how social collaboration was reinvented with the smart phone. Feeling slighted Windows had to perform a miracle to stay in the running that's when we got two 3 versions of 8 (RT, 8 and 8.1) it was designed to compete with Smart phone Tech.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The new startup menu can be changed with a shell program and it works very well to where you can switch from traditional 7 look to the 10 look and tablet mode turns into the win 8.1 hybrid menu with live tiles over the desktop view. Nice move Windows!</div>

How to Set up A Guest Wi-Fi Network</h1>
Throwing a party or having a bunch of friends over for dinner can be a ton of fun but it can also be extremely stressful. From picking food options that will please both the carnivore and the health-conscious vegetarian, to making sure you don’t sit anyone next to someone they “just can’t stand”, to worrying that Janine is going to bring that weirdo again (seriously, who <i style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">was</i> that guy??). The last thing you need is all of your guests stealing bandwidth from your devices, not to mention bothering you all night for your Wi-Fi password because “I know you already told me but I forgot and now I really need to show that guy Janine brought this awesome song on YouTube”. So check this inevitable migraine off <a href="http://blog.dlink.com/6-rules-for-entertaining-todays-modern-party-guest/" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; color: #ffa300; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">the To-Do list</a> by creating a Guest Network before your guests arrive; it’s easy to do plus it allows your guests to connect to a dedicated Wi-Fi network without affecting the devices connected to your private home network. Here’s how to do it:<br />
While connected to your wireless network, open up your router’s settings by typing 192.168.0.1 in the address bar of any web browser. Log in with your admin username and password (you should have created these when you initially set up your router. If you have forgotten this information, you will need to <a href="http://blog.dlink.com/what-is-a-reset-button-when-should-i-use-it/" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; color: #ffa300; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">reset your device</a> and log in with default account info).<br />
<ol style="background: transparent; border: 0px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Click on the ‘ADVANCED’ tab</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">On the bottom of the left-hand menu, click ‘GUEST ZONE’</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Check the box to ‘Enable Guest Zone’. If you want to create a schedule for your Guest Network, click New Schedule and fill out the form that opens. Otherwise your<br />Guest Network will be active until you uncheck ‘Enable Guest Zone’.</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Name your Guest Network and select what type of security you would like. If you want your guests to connect but not your neighbors, we recommend selecting WPA-Personal, choosing Auto for WPA Mode, TKIP and AES for Cipher Type and setting a ‘Pre-Shared Key’ (aka password) that is easy for your guests to remember. Otherwise select NONE under Security Mode and let everyone within wireless range go wild.</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Click ‘Save Settings’ above and once complete your Wi-Fi Guest Network should appear in your device’s list of available networks. Easy!</li>
</ol>

You deserve it!<br />

(Sermon
notes) A Meaningful Prayer Life </div>
<div style="color: grey; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Wednesday,
November 26, 2014</div>
<div style="color: grey; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10.0pt; margin: 0in;">
9:57 PM</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Greetings, I (John)
have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Intro</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Whether you are a
believer or not, a prayer life changes things in a persons life. It is a
personal evolution that over time
develops expectations along with an objective attitude in the daily
walk. It develops a positive outlook. A personal craving to embrace hope. In believers it develops
intimacy with our God. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Objective Truths</span> </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
It is a strange and most personal world we
face. By design we individualize how each of us see it. Some of this stems from
beliefs passed down through parenting
and collaboration among peers and educators. We cling to the beliefs
that the influences that are pass down to us as children are correct . </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">The truth </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Our development
continues each day we live. We are
humans we are ever changing we are ever evolving. We continue to be molded by
such things as the environment and outside influences. Some of these influences
spiral us into deep depression, with no hope to recover. Many find themselves
at rock-bottom with no where to turn except upwards. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
The for mentioned
influences do not have to control us, we do not have to bend to every direction
the wind blows. Man and mankind historically evolves. Evolve meaning ever
changing (not dinosaur Evolution). So many advancements throughout history
however we remain emotional beings, this is the one thing that has been a
constant in human behavior. In other words we are people that rely on our
emotions to guide us , and the scary part is that same emotional people that
hold technological advancements that can set the world a fire with the
slightest provocation. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">The Response</span> </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
How do we stop
mankind from self destruction from being full of hatred or even ill-civilized? </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Effective wisdom
tells us to develop good relationships, good mental health and respond to
indifferences wisely. Contrary to feeding human emotions with hatred. As
believers we find easy solutions to prevent self destruction. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Developing a
relationship with God through prayer is a good choice its recommended by 10 out
of 10 pastors. From the psychological view a believer or nonbeliever can
benefit from meditation and prayer. It extends the subjects ability to cope.
Prayer acts as a relief mechanism, by giving hope in the most undesirable
circumstances. Form this point of view it is a positive in the next stage of
human development. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Is having a positive and meaningful prayer life good for the soul?</span> </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Still something
holds us back from developing that relationship with God through prayer. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
What holds us back? </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
There is not much
different from either lists, however it is the perspective how each of us look
at that list. Now look at the lists
again both lists are reasons why we should pray. If you didn't pick it out;
human nature more times than not brings us to our knees over troubled times
more often than any other time in our lives.
</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
You don’t have to
hit rock-bottom or have a tragedy in your life
to start praying. It's not all about how God can do something for you
only in times of need. God is there never taking a vacation, he never puts you
on hold. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
I want you to
understand, the way prayer works . Praying to God is not only singing and
worshiping which is directional. Gentiles are accused of being full of empty
words. Meaning we shout praises without meaningful hearts however prayer does
not have to be aimed in one direction. Prayer is not one -directional but
bio-directional.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
The truthful
definition of prayer should not be limited to:</div>

should build a relationship with the Father through :</div>

Prayer in Hebrew is
"to know oneself"; the word is Tefillah. Remember we don't pray to change God's mind,
God knows our every need. Prayer is designed to communicate a relationship with
Him. Prayer is a healthy path that changes us. Prayers are always answered, yet
sometimes we don't like the answer. </div>

Walking a Truthful life</span></div>
<div style="color: grey; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10.0pt; margin: 0in;">

<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Objective truth</span> </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
There is one central
element to Christ teachings through the mending ministry of John. In the natural world truth is usually determined by the way we
think we should walk. Sometimes we find
our walk in two realms; the Christian and the world. This means generally we
leave Christianity out of our street life and leave it in Church. Sometimes can
find ourselves acting out and using language we wouldn't normally use around
our family and Church. We generally do this to fit in with our peers however
somewhere along that line our behavior gets distorted, the once truthful walk
becomes gray (distorted) and then we start making allowances for our behavior.
Without getting into too much philosophy behind it all. This is called holding onto fundamental
beliefs and behaviors.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">

<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">It is by philosophical nature that man will continue
shaping his life .</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Fellowshipping with
like mind persons can either distort a truthful walk by corrupting our
relationship with Christ, or fellowshipping with Christians
that keeps, maintains and constantly develops a healthy relationship
with Christ. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
John's second
epistle warns the faithful believers against fellowshipping with those who do
not abide in this truth, and the third epistle encourages the believers to
receive and help those who work for it. Thus making us accountable to our
fellow man. ( 3 john 1:8 &
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10) Work together and lift up your fellow man if they should
stumble and fall but woe to him if he has fallen alone for he has another to
help him up.</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">

<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Walking With
Christ; To walk in the fear of the Lord</span> </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
To fear the Lord is
to hate evil: Pride and arrogant thinking is not good and to speak this way is
counter productive to a Christian walk. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">

<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Continue to walk in your faith</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
It is with great joy
that you continue to walk in the truthfulness. To assure we continue to walk
right. We must make small commitments:</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
1: WALK IN THE FEAR OF THE LORD</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
2: Spend time in the
bible </div>
<ol style="direction: ltr; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0.375in; margin-top: 0in; unicode-bidi: embed;" type="a">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; vertical-align: middle;" value="1"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Reading the Word keeps us in
the correct frame of mind when we </span><span style="font-size: 14.6666669845581px;">converse</span><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> or speak with others.</span></span></li>
</ol>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
3: Let no perversion
of the heart.</div>
<ol style="direction: ltr; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0.375in; margin-top: 0in; unicode-bidi: embed;" type="a">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;" value="1"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"> Maintain a biblical life (2 Corinthians
10:5)</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Using unwholesome words and

wrong. (Romans 13:9 & 14)</span></li>
</ol>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
4: Cultivate a godly
relationship</div>
<ol style="direction: ltr; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0.375in; margin-top: 0in; unicode-bidi: embed;" type="a">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;" value="1"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Proverbs speaks of Iron
sharpening Iron much an alike man
standing accountable to his fellow
man. </span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Being accountable to one
another, so he or she will not walk alone, when they fall you will be
their to help them up and they you.
(Proverbs 27:17 & Ecclesiastes 4:9-10) </span></li>

<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
5: Develop a
rewarding prayer life </div>

<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;" value="1"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">A prayer life has different
elements such as levels of intimacy with God. </span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Letting the Word speak to you
while conversing with God through fellowship of the Spirit.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Prayer is abiding in Christ
meaning connecting with Him. </span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; vertical-align: middle;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">It is an encounter that leads
us intimately to God's heart </span></li>
</ol>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin-left: .375in; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Concluding our walk today</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Getting our soul into shape </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
By cultivating the
correct view of God's heart our daily walk will show signs of growth, strength
and durability. You will experience a vibrant daily walk with an assurance if
you will, that you serve a resin savior. Become accountable to one you fellowship
with, be the one who is there when they stumble or fall. Men you are
accountable to your families as your wife is accountable to you. Rebuke her not
when she helps you up from your fall.
Except that we are human we do make mistakes and we do fall short. We
each are authors of our own sin, still we can and will find redemption in
Christ. </div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">
Lastly as Christians we walk with divine power that was imparted through Cross
and Christ death we were made alive, we lead by example; we should act like it!</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt; margin: 0in;">

Network Society</h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Network societies need a few elements to keep themselves
secure. Threats today come from all directions. ID theft is on the rise and
daily and causing all kinds of problems with credit card safety and your personal
safety. It doesn’t take much to take over someone’s ID their bank account their
life. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Network security is a big thing. We have been graced by a
free internet that is practically worldwide. With restriction being in a few of
those countries, and because of this security needs to be a main concern in
business and in your personal computing life. <o:p></o:p></div>
<h3>
Pushing Virtual Desktop
</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Many companies have developed a need for outsourcing, for
security measures this means vulnerabilities and costly measures to protect
their client; however this could be deemed costly. To reduce cost by keeping their
environments optimized the end to end solution needs to be in place while
keeping the virtual end-user’s mobility up and running. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
VMware is designed to create a positive solution for
companies that are using this environment to conduct business with their
clients. VM ware can manage security, make it more reliable and reduce
management cost. To give you an example of a virtual environment: VM or cloud
computing is generally used by everyone that has a Smart Phone. Your data files
such as music is kept in a cloud, thus reducing the need for storage on your
Smart Phone. While teleworkers, and call centers use a secure connection between
a privet server and mobile end-user. <o:p></o:p></div>
<h3>
Needs </h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maintaining a reliable system should utilize measures that
ensure data security by centralizing user data, along with their user resources
and applications. Using Zero and Thin-Clients to optimize company
infrastructures (giant room full of servers) mobility at the user’s fingertips
while keeping everything secure from threats of malware and viruses.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The ultimate solution in a downturn economy could just be
the Cloud based environments which can simplify IT management, improve security,
reduce complexity, enhances flexibility while insuring customer assurance. A
streamline infrastructure can optimize a return on the investment. The IT department
runs smoother on less labor cost. The maintenance on building cost is reduced therefore
management can focus on the customer by providing much needed quality while
staying on a competitive platform.<o:p></o:p></div>
<h3>
Solution</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
An end-to-end cloud client-computing solution should include
an optimized virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), by using tightly integrated
data center hardware, management software, end points and services that work
seamlessly with Citrix, Microsoft®, and VMware and virtualization software, which
in turn will optimize while reducing operating cost, keep much needed security
and provide flexibility for the user, and ultimately earning a return on the
investment. <o:p></o:p></div>

Do you know what that is?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> VDI is a v<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">irtual desktop infrastructure This </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">is the practice of hosting a desktop operating system within a virtual </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">(</span>VM<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">) </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">machine that running on a centralized server. It uses a thin client to connect to a server this is sometimes called a server-based type of computing.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">There are variant environments to which this can be used. In telemarketing or teleworker environments the server can be based at the company sit that is represented. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"> For example if a call center represents a company, the teleworker or CRM will take calls and enter data or retrieve data from the client-company. The teleworker simply logs in to the VDI-VDS etc... on a computer or thin-client and then a VOIP telephone; then takes or makes calls on behalf of the company they represent.</span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">This can also be done through a home computer or a thin-client set up in the home office space. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">Okay! Wait a minute, did I say HOME? Yes I did. More and more customer service rep's are moving home to work. Insurance companies, even favorite Cell company. OH Yeah! I am not kidding you. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">The company got so big their buildings got so big to where it would cost you more money to have them work from an office environment. The heating and cooling and just all the lights on was costing the consumer; that's you and it was piles of money each year on your bill. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">Insurance companies sent their workers home when the Obama Care was first talked about. It was and is a necessary measure to save the consumer money and so that the business can survive. Yes there is a change in the way we do business in todays economy. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">Unfortunately</span></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"> this sounds like a lesson in economics now, yet no apologies folks, because I've heard rantings for the past 8 years about; every time I call to make a payment or have trouble with a bill or device I get someone in the Philippines or India. Wait until you get the Russians or Africa! The accents is what bothers most of us because we can't understand what they say over the VOIP phone. The other main issue is that we sent all our jobs overseas. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">There are some quality firms and companies that are trying to serve their clients better trying to assure the quality of how they do business. This is done by keeping there workers at work and in the US. The solutions to the high cost of maintaining real estate is done by closing doors on vast amounts of once needed office space and collectively maintaining one or two operation sites that house servers, and SIP-Trunks and PBX switching stations for computers and VOIP phones. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">By sending existing employees home to work the company can save face in the bizarre turn in the economy and healthcare insurance practices. For the cell phone providers it seems Ironic that a cell phone company still needs landlines to do business. Joking aside! Technology cost money when your new devices are developed. Example: take that new I-device or Galaxy#? it cost millions to get it into your hands, therefore to compete with the all the cell providers they sent there teleworkers overseas to stay their profit. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">After this was done someone realized the customer satisfaction started to slump and systematically they turned to local outsourcing solutions. Consequently the trained call center workers in the US has replaced some of the overseas customer service workers. An example is when you have a demanding issue you will firstly speak to a customer care agent most likely overseas personal then will be switched back to the US for a supervisor agent. This makes it easier going for you as a customer. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;">When calling customer care and getting someone here in the Philippines you are speaking to someone in a office, however in the US and Canada these workers may work in outsource call centers or in there homes all across the nations. Depending on policy and what they can or cannot say to you as a customer you may never let you know if you are talking to someone working from their bedroom in an apartment or from an outsourced call-center.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.2000007629395px;"> It is a new way of doing business, by keeping the cost of operations down and assuring quality for their customers. </span></span></span><br />

The main concern is how you deal with the stress of micromanaging your team. <br /><br />As I mentioned in my last post: Project managers develop their own methodology some like to stay closely informed where as others just want an approximation of facts. What I failed to do is mention the other two types of madness, I mean management methodology. The Macro Manager and the Situational Manager and if I hadn’t mentioned it we have all three in our office. There is myself the detailed guy and a middle man then the one who is in charge being the situational manager type. <br /><br />These three tiers work well for us, the man in the middle can take over for each other anytime one of us needs a break. This wasn’t planned it just happened, however if we do take a stress break we take the work to a point to whereas it will not burden the next guy filling the shoes. <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Time Management</span><br /><br />I mentioned lastly in the previous blog about time management. OH! So crucial and necessary, no matter how well you can remember things no matter how well you yourself are put together there will be the OOPS-Factor! There are no real apps on you tablet or phone to help you with this. “This comes from within, young Pad won”!<br /><br />I can even tell you exactly how I do it, I just know even if you have to write it down, put it on a task list or calendar do it. The most important thing is to put it down somewhere on a schedule, and remind your Team it is subject to change. I do change very easy, my techs? Not so well, remember to remind them that it changed for a reason; IT is a service industry and as important issues come up there will be things that are time sensitive such as a server or security issue that won’t be as important to fixing that end-user workstation. <br /><br /><br />The next thing is to stay calm in every situation, it’s like flowing water, just as it looks the same it’s not, it changes every micro second. It’s hard to stay calm when you are drowning right? It is also hard to swim if you panic.

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As managers we have to stay ahead of the game, or as close to as we possibly can. We do this so can bring a project in on time with the maximum efficiently that you and the team can effectively do. Project managers find themselves in one of three categories. Which one are you? <br /><br /><br /><br />Project managers develop their own methodology some like to stay closely informed where as others just want an approximation of facts, (what stage is it at and are we on time). In my company we have a three tier management persona. Firstly is the one who takes care of the Deployments and see that every detail gets done. This is the MICRO MANAGER. You see there is that one person who is on top of the details and the enter-workings all the time by assigning their work, asking the techs about job details while helping resolve those pesky minor problems and all the way up to the big ones. Sometimes if it calls for reassigning tasks to others so that no one gets slighted.<br /><br /><br /><br /> These project managers assign work in small chunks - maybe just a day at a time. They could goes as far as a week or two in advance while changing things along the way by reassigning tasks so that things work smoothly and get done. The unfortunate side effect to this type of management causes that PM to spend so much time in the details that it takes away from the daily tasks resulting in longer completion times, causing ulcers and frustrations. It is fortunate that because of experience I am aware of this and have developed self-discipline. This is where TIME MANAGEMENT comes in</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02346853557953614373noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1251835164642870399.post-23063183046882391922014-07-24T13:08:00.001-05:002014-07-24T13:08:38.822-05:00Loosing Window 2003 Server<h2>

Technology advancements occur sometimes daily. Advancement push old technology platforms out the door to make way. We find the important thing is to keep Firmware, software and devices up to date. My job is to do just that. In part this is where data migration comes into action. </span></span></span></span><br />

Someone asked me why it’s so important to migrate and what is entailed during a migration?</div>

1. Basically, it is moving information from an outdated platform such as a local data storage system to a more modern platform such as a cloud based data storage. It gives users greater access and opportunity to change how to approach fundamental problems verses the on-premises data-center.<br />
<br />
2. More recent made servers cater to a cloud-based technology, thus eliminating the need for business to dedicate a closet or room to keep the electronically stored data.<br />
<br />
3. I've noted that small business sometimes do not keep a backup plan if data is lost. So for a small business Cloud Storage makes sense. If you loose your data at one cloud holding facility your data is backed up elsewhere. </div>
<div style="color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; margin-top: 12px;">
4. How safe is your data? If you keep it on-site; what assurance do you have you wont loose it? Firewall perhaps? What about water damage, fire, physical theft, accidents in general? Cloud based Data storage takes the risk management to a new level of security.<br />
<br />
Data can still be stored in your desktop, laptop, and other electronic devices. A cloud storage system still seems practical. Lets look at a few examples of what you probably use already that is cloud based. Music, Video, Address-books, Music and news on the radio, Smart phone and Tablet data. Come on now! We have been using the quote "Cloud" to store data for sometime now.<br />
<br />
We recently lost a good reliable operating system do to the old nature of XP. It became a risk within itself to keep using this old platform as cyber threats became more apparent the harder it became to maintain XP. One year from yesterday Windows Server 2003 will no longer be a viable platform as well as the world turns to new advancements designed to make our lives easier, more secure, and fun. </div>
<div style="color: #424242; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; margin-top: 12px;">
Today will mark the day as <b>one year remaining until the end of support for Windows Server 2003. </b><br />
<br />
There now is a need to put some urgency behind that question for MIGRATION. So what’s the upside to migrating? My answer is everything to loose by not doing it, and everything to gain towards saving your lost data, and down time.</div>

Do you know what would be neat? Having a 3 D printer, you know they are reasonably affordable, under 2,000 US D in some cases. The tech store has them or you can order one. The great thing is if you want to get the gadget geek in your life one its quite simple that is if he hasn't got one already.<br />
Making that sought after action figure from one of your fave star movie can be done. Still there is a drawback to copying someone else’s designs and toys. What might come to mind first is piracy, so? I know you probably wouldn't sell it for profit, right? Well that is a minor concern in that case. What about the replication of a firearm that is undetectable because it’s made of plastic and a small piece of metal? Writers are always aware of the issue of plagiarism, copyrights and so on. Some bootlegger’s can make that favorite toy you can’t find then sell it cheating an upwards of billions each year for the developers and manufacture of that toy.<br />

Creating your own knockoffs is not what 3 D printing was intended for. I know I can see the fun it though, can’t you? Please use wisdom and caution if you do, always!<br />
The 3 D printer can be used in a positive way. Developing tools for industry by creating both metal and plastic prototypes before putting them to the mold, along with much more potential then I had ever imagined up until now.<br />
The next wave of capabilities might be concerning when it comes to 3 D printing, I must warn you. I mentioned printing with both plastic and metal, there are other materials to print with. How about mixing animal or human donor tissue and stem cells to create enhanced cells and organs? The controversy and ethical issues may have just begun however we will definitely hear more about this in the near future just as we did with cloning.<br />

Mixing compounds on a molecular platform level has been achieved with 3 D, what this means is the manufacturing of your own medicine right in your home is in that future. Well as I can see a good thing for that concept and a whole lot of bad.<br />
There are not only moral and ethical risks yet there are security risks, health risk and copyright risks that go along with any new gadget we come up with now days. The Government will want to control a wide range of objects that can be manufactured with these machines, therefore look for regulations and the proverbial do’s and don’ts list to follow at some near date. Printing out a plastic fork or spoon may seem harmless, but it is the bacteria that will grow on it that might just get you.<br />
You know as well as I do there are those of us that are just too smart for our own good and with things in or worldwide economy getting so bad there will be someone that will do something with one to make money honestly or dishonestly. The 3 D printer can do a lot of things while imagination and invention is what it was intended for, allowing our minds to dream and imagine new ways that might enhance mankind’s existence on Earth.<br />

You know a noise woke me this
morning around 4:45 am. I snuck through the house peering through blinds; I
walked into my office and found a back-light computer screen. I waited after
letting my little buddy out to do his thing, came back and it still was a funky
shade of nothingness. I realized it must have been an update, so at 3 am until
6 am the computer hadn't restarted. Yes I shut it down and restarted it. The same
thing happened, no reboot. I let the dog in and closed up the house from the
sub-freezing temps outdoors and went back and turned off the machine again
hopping I wasn't going to have to re-format my HDD. No big deal since I have a
drive mirrored to a start-up for this machine anyway only current data and
setting would be slightly different and a years’ worth of data would be lost.
No big issue either some stuff is kept in the cloud or on my server. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;">
I restarted a second time in Ubuntu
mode and I can’t find anything to start with it basically told me, so I knew it
was a update error. It was Thursday and at 3 am it will load up all that
Microsoft has to send. I controlled alt delete as suggested by the machine and
tried again still the same so this time I let Windows load. No prob! I opened
it up and all was well made sure the net card was working and then checked the
update and I had three failed updates. I manually started them and when the
system was ready to restart I did. Keeping my fingers crossed may or may not
have helped but a good 3 min later I was blogging this message to you. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;">
Errors: was to do with SP1 on the 1)
Net.frame and 2 different Win server 8 updates. All is well and restored and
working well. So no worry if this happens during Win 7’s update. I’ll go back
and see if my Ubuntu will start up now. I’ll let you know if I this destroyed
anything. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;">
It was kind of strange to see a restart
take over 3 hours after a update, it concerns us when we see this happen, we
panic at times I know I used to. I've learned many thing since the old days of
Win 95 or prior. With all the advancements we think it should work right every
time we sit down in front of them. If only! That’s why people like me have phone
numbers and that’s why you call. Oh that noise this early morning? It was a new
strange cat in the area. Cute and skinny and I bet hungry and cold looking to
find a warm bed and a meal. I called for the poor thing. It never even glanced
back to say hey! <o:p></o:p></div>

<b><i><u>“Praying without ceasing” means at least four things.</u></i></b></h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
21st Century King James Version (KJ21)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
16 Rejoice evermore.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
17 Pray without ceasing.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
18 In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in
Christ Jesus concerning you.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Paul is writing this into the lesson. He is deeply concerned
about the people in Thessalonica, 1 Thessalonians 5:17 as he (Paul) challenges
this in a command. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br /><br /><h3>
There is a spirit of dependence that should permeate all we do. </h3>
<br />This is the very core of praying. This is a deep and abiding dependency that we place on God, we find it coming from a deep down place we call our heart. When he says pray continuously he means in this sense to never stop.<br /><br /><h3>
Two: Praying in this manner also means to repeat praying throughout the day, often.</h3>
<div>
<br /><div>
In Romans 1:9 “For God is my witness, who so ever I serve with my heart or spirit in the Gospel of His Son that without ceasing I mention You”! This reminds us so never to forget who we are praying to and why. <div>
<br /><h3>
Thirdly: That we never give up on a prayer life.</h3>
<br />No matter what bad luck, whatever low point you get to in life; never give up or abandon the hope we have in God. Do not lose heart. Keep praying and never cease. Communicate your needs in Luke 11:2-4 we read how we need to pray by the example he leaves us in this chapter. <br /><br /><h3>
Fourthly: Prayer helps maintain our daily walk in goodness, or walk in a Christian life.</h3>
<br />A prayer life allows us to stay in communication with God, he helps maintain our day. It’s like checking the gas gauge or oil in a car before we take out on a journey so the unexpected doesn't happen. <br /><br /> <br /><br />Remember this doesn’t mean all day go without your daily activities, still does it mean that in our busy life style we should only pray when an ideal time arises? No! Least not forget to include the daily time we need to set aside for prayer. Early in the morning before your first cup, during your meal times, on the commute to work or even with our family before we turn in at night. Traditionally we do this in many families, still how we get away from these good habits. God is listening, He is all powerful, and He is and remains all knowing. </div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you have read or listen to my ranting’s I am a diehard fan
of what works. I recently worked these past three months on a contract that
still uses Win XP Pro. The new machines they were using had window 7 licenses
on them however the software was non-compatible with Win 7. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Win 7 has newer and easier to use features and most people
like it, I do for one. Switching from my home office and work really takes a
bit to get used to. I find myself saying I miss my home office computers OS
over XP. Laugh because someone knows what I am talking about. It isn’t as bad
as working on Mac and then on windows, now that’s a little harder. Most mac
users do not want to change once they get use to the quality of an IOS. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
There are still questions? Yes I know so why don’t software
makers off an upgrade plug in, or something on that line. They do, still a lot
of call centers have web-front dynamic software designed for them explicitly.
Such as Call Center data handling, call centers rarely keep their client
information on-site. The web-front is there to have CSR’s input and look up
data on a customer and then it will transfer that info to and fro via internet
to company-based servers. Therfore the redevelopment of this client server
software becomes too expensive to change overnight. Microsoft knew this and
gave extended time for the transition. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Good luck with the upgraded system. Oh here is another thing to think
about! Windows 9 is around the corner. Maybe a little wait is in order. Hang on
to Windows XP for a while longer 9 might just surprise us all. Cloud-based information
storage is becoming more important in our changing ways of thought and how we
do business. </div>

<br />
Keeping up with all my duties are pains taking at times. I’ve neglected my blogs quite severely. Matter of fact that was never my intention, let me begin on talking about the up and coming of an era. April is the deadline for XP, it will sad to see such a good friend go. Stable easy to use and a work horse in the office.<br />
You know there will be die-hard fans grasping at its shirt tail and hanging on until the bitter end long after April has come and gone. Now some have been asking why hang on to old methods we surly don’t want to return to Win 98 so why XP? If you are one of those offices that are holding on to XP, you probably have asked this for over a year now.<br />
<br />
Here are a couple of explanations to why XP is so important. Money is the bottom line for everyone, even for those with unseemly loads of wealth. Have you seen the cost of software? Not just what you buy at the geek store. Discounts are pretty good, still if you ever worked in acquisitions in a company you know that software in the middle market business is so high it is cost preventive to switch to a new Operating system and buy all new software that works on Win 8 or 7. Reason two for sticking with Windows XP, at 39 % is that a lot of “Crucial software depends on Windows XP." Thirdly is that it has been a good dependable system so why fix what isn't broke. The compatibility mode, really it is not such a good idea. With 500 or even 1000 plus computers, good old Charlie in IT will be on your computer more than its user. No company wants to keep a large IT staff; they bring us in for project and then the IT team will leave when the project is done<br />
.<br />
Migration project are costly and disruptive to the business in whole. I’m dissuading the concept that is my bread and butter after all. However it is a reality that IT contractors work from project to project and scrimp in the off months. This business with ending XP may stimulate my business however companies have been given fair warning to get there ducks in a row. Let’s hope most companies will not be so blindsided by this move in the industry norm. <br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Something that dwells on our heart, we pray. Praying is a part of our nature as man. Wishing or making a wish is a prayer like form, however in the Christian walk we are encouraged each morning to pray, at meal times and before we sleep. That is the natural possession of our days since childhood. Prayer has become</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"> scheduled in our Churches. It is not a bad thing. Schedules are reminders of when to do things, and organization is a tool used in planning successful events, to include services.<br /><br />So let’s get to prayer in our personal life. The unscheduled prayers in our life when no one is around, and no one is listening, just you and the Father! Be honest we all have desires, dreams and wants as well as needs, right? Sometimes we entertain these in expressed individual and honest prayers to God. We are selfish? Personally I always struggled a little bit with that concept, and I find myself asking others to pray for my needs, because I feel guilty in praying for myself, feeling I am being selfish.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The other mater is. Then too it is a hard thing to face when I realize latter my selfish needed prayer was answered with a NO! I never resented the Father for the no answer. I questioned it, yes. Still I learned latter the reason should have been clear to me all along. If you are like most, you might find it hard to be rejected when one of your desires you hoped for is answered with a no. We may even feel rejected, resentment may occur because by human standards we want acceptance.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br />As a growing believer, a Christian we seek Gods heart, His acceptance. We find ways in our daily walk to do things for good ignoring ourselves of things we personally want. The example in the Old testament of King David’s desire to build the temple to the Lord in First Chronicles 28:2. His dream went unfulfilled; however that dream was passed on to Solomon. Although the answer was NO! God remained his diligence and allowed the King’s focus to remain on Israel and pass it on to another.<br /><br />The lesson here is in the next few lines, oh when you get a chance read the first book of Chronicles chapter 29:10 through 19. "Blessed are You, O LORD God of Israel our father, forever and ever. Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; yours is the dominion, O LORD, and you exalt yourself as head over all. Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all, and in your hand is power and might; and it lies in Your hand to make great and to strengthen everyone."29:10-12 (Bible)<br /><br />In this passage we can see that the David was not revengeful or loathed pitifully or showed he was angry, still yet it was the opposite he exalted the Father. Expressing that God supplied all their needs. He concentrated in his prayer for the people in his prayers to” strengthen everyone”. He prays for the temple and his son before he dies. (Swindoll., 2011)<br /><br />Gods answer was no to David however we see from our Bible history lessons it was for a reason. It was answered in a way that we saw after his death it could only be fulfilled. This is when the no answer for one is a wait for others. Perhaps it’s not time to even get a direct answer because it is not for your moment and time. That time and purpose might be for others or perhaps your plans do not fit in what He has planned for you. (Brewer, 2013,2014)<br />In closing let’s take a lesson from David and give thanks and praise that God loved us so that he interceded and protected us from ourselves. God’s pre-planned purposes do not die with us.<br />(Swindoll., 2011) </span><br />

I don’t have too many stories to tell anyone about Windows
8, I just know it didn't work for me. I wrote an article a year or so ago on my
experiment and still have that Bata version of Win 8 in my catalog of ISO’s.
The idea was to compete with the based versions of Ubuntu, Linux and I operating
strategies. There were or are attempts to tweak the machine so it preforms more
like the more successful Windows 7. Ubuntu in a recent past put the plan of a totally
Ubuntu operating system on a phone. The Analysis includes people participating in
a false buying mart research. Consumers were asked to make factious purchases
of the phone and when they got to a certain number that would reconsider whether
to market the phone. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They didn't! I
would have looked forward to one just out of kicks and giggles; thus sayeth the

were being put out to pasture. Well right now we haven’t worked with Windows 9
yet so let us keep that for ourselves for now. The ones we did and didn't like
are still around somewhere someplace. I saw a Dino-Windows 98 still working and
doing e mail. I remember it was a success. The remember Windows Millennium
Edition (Me) what a miserable failure. Now the wonderful Windows XP still a
success. Now don’t forget the good old` Vista, Windows Vista was a failure.
Then the next generation and still among the favorites weighing in as a light
weight doing the heavy lifting Windows 7 still packing<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>a success, however the contender to everyone’s
hoping success is the now used Windows 8; Windows 8 was a failure. Looking at a
pattern it seems like every other version has a success story. I guess it’s up
for Windows 9 to outshine them all.<o:p></o:p></div>

Really so soon, what is wrong with 7? It isn't so old it is
outdated already, is it? Not by a long shot, yet you do know and mark my words.
Windows 7 will hang around for a long time like XP has that is if MS will let
it. We face the edge of an era the brink of closure for good old Win XP. The
security measure keeping it on the desk will surpass the cost effectiveness of
maintaining it. With that said, now would be the time third party developers to
negotiate with MS to keep it going, for the Call centers <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and other business that wish to keep it going,
however it’s not for prosperity by any means. X P was a design that helped in

as in 8, make it user friendly without the freeze up and crashes and it could
be a device OS only where as it would access Window systems as it already does
on an exchange level. And for the Laptop a toggle could be made for either mode

Windows 8 again:<br />
<br />
You know last year I built a few new computers; one I placed the beta version of Win 8 on one of them. I used it for a few days and the first thing I discovered that it was an OS that would be best used in the mobile devices. By now most everyone knows this.<br />
<br />
After a week or two of playing around I then took the version 8 off the computer in fear that my customers wouldn't like it. I now wish I would have left it on so all this time since I could have used it as a personal machine to learn on, make better judgment calls for my customer base when they ask me.<br />
<br />
One friend and client has made a purchase last Black Friday, with two Window 8 devices, one an RT 8 tablet and the other a Desktop. His report to me is that he would never buy another RT 8 version; he claims it’s sluggish and clumsy. Bare this in mind this is only person and his opinion.<br />
We talked more and he spoke happily about retiring his Windows X P laptop to its remainder days in service of the church, while J. loves using his Windows 8 for home and office use. Please keep in mind J. is young and not set in his ways yet, innovation for most young persons is welcome. As parents we see this in our children, no?<br />
<br />
For those of us that have grown up with Linux, Mac and Windows well some of us got stuck a little in the past. Don’t get me wrong I love new stuff, I love progression in technology. However I wasn't convinced with the 7 version until I migrated my first OS 7 E E.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0pRO2QONZXo4GnCqE_GwVB7DBIhoeF4PwTq40QpnRJuiJTrbNedrYyijtBik-TSbmFM7Jztlso573RuOwNgsF5VpanaSRVTN532cmRkdKNuQXk8JWHYOqwLxPuHT8R5fXyWoZ4a3X0eaO/s1600/IMAG0025.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0pRO2QONZXo4GnCqE_GwVB7DBIhoeF4PwTq40QpnRJuiJTrbNedrYyijtBik-TSbmFM7Jztlso573RuOwNgsF5VpanaSRVTN532cmRkdKNuQXk8JWHYOqwLxPuHT8R5fXyWoZ4a3X0eaO/s200/IMAG0025.jpg" width="119" /></a></div>
After working with Windows 7 over the next several months’ gradually replacing the 1000 + units of the company’s outdated X P Pro I realized how stubborn I was to change. I assumed it was a work over of Vista, I guess Win 7 version was a better upgrade after all than I assumed at first look. <br />
<br />
The scary thing is now with 8 is how soon it came out. After using the OS I admit it will be an answer to the Mac, Android and Google platforms that are on the market now. The window phone is an example of how Microsoft show fears in loosing profits to the current users of Android and Mac, while seeing the absolute need for the technology change to stay in the ball park. <br />
<br />
The phone is a step in the right direction for MS and I wonder why they didn't think of this before? Now will Android OS be available as a desktop OS?<br />
<br />
New computing systems for the everyday user are being developed all the time. Ease of use is priority one with developers. As we see all in one desktop computers becoming popular, with touchscreen ability why not have an Android OS on them, however Windows OS 8 is the answer for that need.<br />
<br />
As most of us have discovered that Mac still remains an entity base on a-like systems that can only sync with their own kind. Android’s with the aid of browsers and software, link and sync all your needs to Micro soft Windows. Again, ease of use is priority one!<br />
<br />
Now you see and may agree that Windows is smart for going in the direction they took. I believe it was a necessary step to take with the need to keep up with today’s needs.<br />
<br />
I still have mixed feelings in the direction I would take today when recommending one OS system over the other to my home users. Still I would recommend 7 E E or pro to business. It relates to the way that most of us are used to, it incorporates some new technology that’s easy to adapt to. K B<br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">If you’re reading this you most likely have a computer. If you have a computer it would be wise to protect it. Perhaps you might ask,” why, I don’t keep my banking or do anything on there that other people can use against me”? That might be true, on the surface, however it is never what it seems and you will never know what someone will use against or take away from you. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Never believe that what little information you have on your computer is so innocent and incorruptible that you don’t need protection. WRONG! Everything you own is yours and everything you put on an internet enabled device is now accessible in way or another. Diaries, photos, personal letters, e-mails, account info and so much more. Mothers madden name your pets and spouse, kids and passwords, and these are just a beginning, in the mountain of possibilities that can be infiltrated by these few you may have heard of; spam laced with Viruses, Trojans, and keystroke monitoring programs. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Bottom line is how much can your life be lost or exploited if someone wanted to mess with your life that surrounds you.

We all want to protect what little we have, money, home and family and our jobs. Yes your employment can be at risk too. Credit fraud is a billion dollar (fraudulent) industry that affects everyone. The results to you are devastating. Many employment recruiters look at the credit scores and financial backgrounds of their prospects for determining risk factors when being considered for hire. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Primary defense using a firewall<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">The Industry giants like Wally world, Banks, and Card companies have safety policies in place for this, however even they can prevent total penetration from outsiders or even corruptible insiders. Hope is not lost; protections from threats are handled through safety measures that include a physical and logical firewall. Deployed along with a stringent protocol policy used organizational wide. Industry Giants had software developed to prevent unwanted intruders, and because of this a less costly version is passed along to non-industry use, providing the same or similar technology that you as a computer user can deploy. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"> You should have a hardware firewall (such as a router) to protect your network, however you should implement the use of a software firewall on each computer to help prevent the spread of a virus within your network (meaning more than one device on one system in home or office) if one of the computers do become infected.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">How firewalls work<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Like in Windows the Firewall will help provide protection from mischievous users and programs that rely on unwelcome incoming traffic that are setup to attack computers. In the server arena, Windows Firewall integrates intelligent design so out-going traffic is configured using the <i>Advanced Security snap-in</i> which incorporates or uses certain rules for firewall behavior, giving traffic protection within the Internet Protocol and its rules of security.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">In a previous story line I wrote about the network policy incorporated into any business, or even home use for that matter as a first line of defense. I stand by that statement and article. Most importantly what must be remembered that along with the wordy policy, which a physical boundary must need to be put into place. This is called a <i>FIREWALL</i>. After all the weakest link in a chain is one that breaks. A good mechanic can predetermine that weak link. Your IT person is that mechanic that can search out and find out most weak links. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"> Figuring out what to do is simple for most companies by conducting an evaluation of your system. It can be started by conducting an Overview, Product evaluation, and its Design, then Deployment. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">In review, the firewall is design to protect/prevent your device from hackers and unwanted intrusion that can delete your data, slow and crash your device (computer) steal passwords, credit card info and some undetermined amount of other problems that can happen from the results of an attack.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

A few years ago, traffic on the internet consisted of e-mails and FTP’s relatively threat issues were nonexistent, however today we are looking at new threats every day. Keeping up with these threats are challenging enough.<br />
Your First-line of defense is your IT professional knowing the system, and then knowing what that system needs.<br />
First-line defense<br />
All good IT people will tell you that start with a Security Policy, deploy it then enforce it. Often found when I visit a business the policy starts off with catering to the general consensus of the employees, then third party venders and management.<br />
Being unreasonable in all the restrictions that can be place on a system <br />
Company owners want to keep their people happy; this generally is a concept that seems productive to the cause. A restrictive policy seems to be over taxing and burdensome, and makes the administrators want to lessen the policies and restraints within a system. This then allows the administrative personal to update the system without going to leaps and bounds to get the job done.<br />
Flexibility<br />
Enterprises find a need to assure that the policies are flexible enough to allow information to flow, but not so light that the doors to the business are utterly open.<br />
I found most companies or organization want to write their own policy, and implement it themselves. The policy writers will most likely use terms that are agreeable with the employees and management needs as well as the Technical Admins so it will be easy as possible to access remotely and otherwise. This is what I call commonsense policy.<br />
What about penetration from outside events, threats along with internal threats or from former employees?<br />
A balancing act between what is wanted and needed to protect the business is needed. Outside third party consulting may be the best practice with today’s threats. Policy makers need to focus on the main objective here. The business needs makes policies that need to be monitored closely and consistently.<br />
Too often Policy is over looked for one reason or another. With vulnerability lurking just around the corner, it is well to know you have a secure system. There is a renewed interest in security policy. Far behind where it should be today, however there are policies that are designed to continue expansion outside the traditional boundaries of an organization with their partners and contractors which build a closer tie-in to responses to the businesses endurance should a disaster occur. Many external relationships with vendor products are very demanding. With the vendor wanting to review security policy and configurations before doing business to ensure that the transfer of information and Intellectual Property will be secure.<br />
Securing data begins at home<br />
Logical Data is protected through cooperation within the organizations boundaries. Keeping passwords privet is number one. Laws now protect the end-user from giving up their passwords to Admin personal. Admins should have their own passwords; however that is not a cure-all. Sometimes the work has to be done in user mode.<br />
Employer’s need to have at least one safety meeting once a year to remind employees the risk involved with telephone solicitations, IT fraud, and so forth and most of all never giving up their passwords, along with deploying a strong password policy.<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>This awareness will only work on a human level if the participants are willing to follow the rules, which should include; no more minimum requirements in a security policy, strong password protection, trusted relationships with vendors, understandable maintenance policies.<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>With external threats on the rise<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>When connected to the internet vulnerability increases 3 fold, visibility (exposure), bandwidth (and IP address), and the length of time spent on a particular site. Exposure is the key to the outside hacker, watching your every move gaining information that can bring your business to its knees.<br />
Physical stopping power is needed. Installing a Fire Wall security system before the server this will insure the protection of external threats through Spam, e-mails and web-browsing attempts.<br />
One simple rule to keep in mind when it comes to choosing the level of a fire wall needed is. How much information do you want to keep and how much can be lost. In other word how much value do you put on your personal, privet and company information? Gauge your strength of security on this bases, follow through with a policy, deploy educate and remind.<br />
