Not even sure what to say about that… Except maybe, focus on the first life…
The body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically expressed. At the bidding of the unlawful thoughts the body sinks rapidly into disease and decay; at the command of glad and beautiful thoughts it becomes clothed with youthfulness and beauty.
…
Thoughts of malice, envy, disappointment, despondency, rob the body of its health and grace. A sour face does not come by chance; it is made by sour thoughts.
…
Thoughts of doubt and fear never accomplish anything, and never can. They always lead to failure. Purpose, energy, power to do, and all strong thoughts cease when doubt and fear creep in.

I was asked a question this week about how to “batch script” the use of nslookup to test looking up a specific hostname. The “tricky” part was that the person wanted to use a specific DNS server instead of the default for the machine.
The person was shocked by my response so I thought I would share this tidbit in case others didn’t know…
You can actually specify the DNS server used to resolve the name you want resolved by specifying it after the name on the command line… For example:
[Wed 11/12/2008 3:30:34.12]
G:\>nslookup login.oscar.aol.com
Server: r2dc1.test.loc
Address: 192.168.0.10
Name: login.messaging.aol.com
Address: 205.188.179.233
Aliases: login.oscar.aol.com
[Wed 11/12/2008 10:05:02.64]
G:\>nslookup login.oscar.aol.com dns-01.ns.aol.com
Server: dns-01.ns.aol.com
Address: 64.12.51.132
Name: login.messaging.aol.com
Address: 205.188.153.121
Aliases: login.oscar.aol.com

My sister is an amazing artist, she just doesn’t put the right value on her work… The amount of work that goes into each of these uniquely designed one off pieces is worth at least $20-25…
A man only begins to be a man when he ceases to whine and revile, and commences to search for the hidden justice which regulates his life. And as he adapts his mind to that regulating factor, he ceases to accuse others as the cause of his condition, and builds himself up in a strong and noble thoughts; ceases to kick against circumstances, but begins to use them as aids to his more rapid progress, and as a means of discovering the hidden powers and possibilities within himself.

Finally the election is over. Congratulations to both Obama and McCain for a hard fought race. I was sick of all of the crap months and months ago but they both fought hard for what they believed in. Now let’s move on and solve the problems in front of us together. I loved what John said… Obama was his former adversary but is now HIS president. Excellent statesmanship.
The next thing I want to hear stop is all of the “Barack is the first black/African American president”. I am already sick of it. He is the 44th president, no more, no less. Don’t encourage discrimination and segregation and polarize the country further. We have much worse issues than what color Barack’s skin is and discussions around that topic. Seriously. 🙂
As previously predicted, my cat Trouble is not thrilled with the time change. She sat at my desk from 3-3:30PM whapping me with her tail and claws and meowing at me until I broke down and gave her her treat at 3:30PM instead of 4PM. I really must teach her how to read the clock or I need to start ignoring the whole daylight savings time fad…
Very serious patch came out from Microsoft today. Unless you are running Vista or Windows Server 2008 anyone, and I mean anyone, who can touch the RPC port on your machine can hurt you. Be safe, go to Microsoft or Windows Update and update your machines now. Or if you are an IT type you know what you need to do in your organization.

UPDATE:
http://blogs.technet.com/msrc/archive/2008/10/23/ms08-067-released.aspx – According to this MSFT first started seeing this vulnerability being used 2 weeks ago!!!! That is how they detected it. PATCH PATCH PATCH.
CLARIFICATION: Note that Vista and Windows Server 2008 are vulnerable to AUTHENTICATED USERS, this is better than the full anonymous access that the other versions of the OS are vulnerable to but you still need to patch. So if you are trying to prioritize, everything pre-Vista goes first because ANYONE can touch them. Then Vista/K8 because only authenticated users can attack those and that is a little better. Note though there is one circumstance where anonymous works on Vista/K8. If the machine isn’t in a domain and you have password protected sharing enabled. This blog post can give more detail. http://blogs.technet.com/swi/archive/2008/10/23/More-detail-about-MS08-067.aspx
