Often times, while trying to log into a router for a client I run into the password field. Usually I’m logging into their router because their internet isn’t working. So looking up the password is a bit hard. I downloaded the “Default Password List” from the downloadsquad and , put it on my USB drive and now I have all the passwords I’ll need to help my clients.

It seems like a new way to pirate movies and music pops up every day. I do not condone the piracy of movies nor do I promote it. But I only report on what is out there. The latest in the new piracy of movies is called Yamour. Apparently it’s an online collection of streaming movies, some are still out in theatres. Visit at your own risk:
Lately I’ve been noticing quite a bit more traffic cameras in the San Fernando Valley. I started to wonder why they were suddenly appearing and also how much they must cost. As I watched how much work and time went in to installing, not to mention paying for these cameras I got suspicious. As it turns out according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, these cameras can cost almost $100,000 per intersection to install. Wow! I can only imagine how they plan to recoup these costs…
Well as it turns out, these Red Light Cameras make MILLIONS of dollars. And not all of it goes to the city. In fact, quite a large percentage of it goes to the companies that own the cameras. Sounds like a sweet deal to me. In fact, some people have found that these Red Light Cameras designed to make intersections safer, are being placed not at the most dangerous intersections (where most fatalities occur) but at the one where there are the most red light violations = more $$$
Recently I found that I have too many storage options at my disposal. iPod, USB drive, work PC, and home PC. This presents an interesting problem, of keeping my data synchronized. I’ve seen various methods of keeping data up to date. Many of them require too much user intervention, and others are just to difficult for the average user. In comes Microsoft “SyncToy” (for Windows Vista; Windows XP.) I’m not one to jump out and use a Microsoft tool just because it’s out there (the way I do with Google), so at first I was skeptical.
