In 1977, when Fleetwood Mac released their multi-platinum album Rumours, I was 4 years old and far too young to appreciate music. As I entered my mid-20s, I had acquired a passion for music of the 1970s and fell in love with the Eagles, Rush, Led Zeppelin, but most importantly, Fleetwood Mac. Their music had become a part of me. It had developed into my personal therapeutic outlet and helped to keep me sane during any emotional upheaval that I might have been experiencing. It was then that I realized
of music and during the late 70’s and early 80’s, many of the popular bands consisted of only male artists and members. In an era dominated by male artists, Fleetwood Mac featured their lead female singer Stevie Nicks, who went on to transcend the gender expectations of the time and pursue a solo career in the midst of heavy adversity.

Miss Misery” by Elliott Smith- This is the first track I selected, as it seems to be inspiration for at least the title of the book. The song fits very nicely with the first few chapters as David’s girlfriend, Amy, leaves for The Hague. The song has a theme similar to that of Miss Misery, but not close enough that I would say it served as inspiration for the book. “Well Respected Man” by The Kinks- I chose this song to reflect David’s view of himself at the beginning of the book. David goes on
As a child I always dreamt of being able to do many different kinds of flips. When I would close my eyes I saw my future self running on the football field flipping over every defensive player that tried to tackle me. I would run into the in zone with some epic final flip for the touchdown and the crowd would go wild. Okay let's get back to reality here. Childhood dreams are often kicked to the curb and forgotten because “reality” isn’t that much fun. I never got the training or coaching that I

Detecting Wireless LAN MAC Address Spoofing Abstract An attacker wishing to disrupt a wireless network has a wide arsenal available to them. Many of these tools rely on using a faked MAC address, masquerading as an authorized wireless access point or as an authorized client. Using these tools, an attacker can launch denial of service attacks, bypass access control mechanisms, or falsely advertise services to wireless clients. This presents unique opportunities for attacks against wireless
input and output signal lines. Any network can be used with the module that supports TCP/IP and connecting to an Internet router enables communication to any Internet enabled device. Other supported protocols include ARP, BOOTP, DHCP, and ICMP. The MAC address is pre-assigned on every device, but the IP address can be assigned either fixed using EEPROM commands or dynamic from a DHCP server using the
make forwarding decisions. In addition, you will learn how devices on local-area networks (LANs) use Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) before forwarding data to a destination. You will learn what happens when a device on one network does not know the MAC address of a device on another network. You will learn that Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) is the protocol a device uses when it does not know its own IP address. Lastly, you will learn the difference between routing and routed protocols
August 20th, 1821 Today is a day of hope and of great anticipation. John, my husband, has told me we are to leave to California tomorrow. We are to leave our small, pitiful home here in Massachusetts and find many opportunities in the west. We have heard of many men who have traveled west and discovered gold. “Gold covers California like a blanket,” they have told John. Our farm here leaves no opportunities for our family. Our two sons and three daughters are growing older and we wish for
