IT100 ASSIGNMENT

This topic is one that everyone should be aware of. and that is Tech online safety. It is no joke that there are urls that are infected and that people can easily see but have to open their eyes and see that they do contain viruses etc...

After playing the Phishing Phil game..i see that it is much harder then it looks to see what a bad url looks like. I had to ask for help many times and still i had trouble with it. After mush practice i am sure that i can be better at this game...

CLOSE...BUT NO HOME ICE

After sealing at least the 5th spot with the Bruins loss to Buffalo...the Rangers looked to get home ice with a win and season sweep over the Devils.

The Rangers were down 2-0 after 1 period...but fought back and tied the game at 2 with 8 minutes left. Tom Renney showed the will to win pulling his goalie with under 2 minutes left..but it was not enough..the game eventually went to a shootout..where the devils won in the 4th round...

The playoff schedule goes as follows:

Wednesday April 9th in NJ @ 7pm
Friday April 11th in NJ @ 7pm
Sunday April 13th in NY 7pm
Wednesday April 16th in NY @ 7pm
*Friday April 18th in NJ @7:30pm
*Sunday April 20th in NY TBD
*Tuesday April 22nd in NJ @ 7pm


*If Necassary

IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS

With only one game left to go in the season...and so much still left to decide...

Heres the situations:
If the rangers win in regulation..they hold the 4 seed and have home field advantage vs the 5 seed devils...
If the rangers get one point or lose and Boston loses they are the 5 seed and play the 4 seed devils
If the rangers lose in regulation and get no points and the bruins win they are the 6th seed...their opponent..is either the capitals or hurricanes..if the capitals win on sat night they play the capitals..if Washington loses they play the hurricanes..

UPDATE:

The Bruins lost to the Sabres so the Rangers at worst will end up in 5th place...
Situations:
If the rangers win in regulation they get home court advantage and 4th place...all other endings...they end up in 5th place vs the 4th seeded devils...

THERE U HAVE IT!

now enjoy and cya in the playoffs!!!

Anti-virus software is a necessity for any computer in todays world. The number of viruses that are created every day goes up every year. It is shocking to see how many of these threats are created both here in the US and worldwide.

Therefore it is imperative that every person keep up to date with their anti-virus software. Do not expect to be safe with any older versions as newer and more destructive viruses are created every day.

A large amount of credit cards get exposed every day by these viruses. This can be avoided with the correct type of anti-virus software that is updated on a daily basis.

RANGER REBOUND

Carrying a one-goal lead into the final period against one of the hottest teams in the NHL, the Rangers played one of their best periods of the season and finished with an extremely important 5-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.

Sean Avery and Martin Straka scored third-period goals for the Blueshirts, who snapped a two-game skid with the win. Goaltender Henrik Lundqvist, who was excellent earlier in the contest against the high-flying Pens, faced only five shots in the final stanza, and finished with 24 saves on the night for the 100th win of his NHL career.

The Rangers now have 85 points on the season and have moved to within two points of the 5th place team in the Eastern Conference, the Ottawa Senators, heading into Wednesday's clash in Newark against the conference-leading New Jersey Devils.

If the playoffs started today the Rangers would be in 6th place and would play the Carolina Hurricanes, who even though they have less points then the Rangers('Canes have 83 points), they still hold the 3 seed due to their lead in their division.

Briefly describing the article.. I believe that there should be limitations on pirated movies that are posted online. I believe that Google should stop being ignorant and should join the MPAA and agree that all websites use on unified way for tracking pirated movies online. If Google continues to use its own version then like it says in the article, other websites will create their own way as well. This will enable people to chose and find which sight is more lenient and that sight will be the most common.

My experience with YouTube is that some video clips that are posted are immediately taken down. One example is MLB clips. One blogger posted his own video of a pitcher warming up during spring training and it was immediately taken down because of the rights that MLB has.

This is similar to music in that music was readily and easily downloaded in the late 90's for free, and then they came down hard on it and now you have itunes stores etc... and now with this explosion of video sites, i dont think that making people pay for it is the answer, i believe that putting commercials or viewing in the creators website is the correct answer to this problem.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

ps this is a college assignment so i had to put it in my blog.

"Being professional about it all; staying composed has been important to us."
