Plans; or, Suck It, Pirates

| Comments

After talking to Ratshag, by which I mean mostly talking at Ratshag while he ignored my mathspeaks and did things that were actually interesting, I believe I have a plan now: Operation Grind Pirates â€˜til My Eyes Bleed.

  • Currently my reputation with the Steamwheedle Cartel is as follows:

    • Ratchet: 9138/36000 Hated

    • Gadgetzan: 8578/36000 Hated

    • Everlook: 8055/36000 Hated

    • Booty Bay: 8055/36000 Hated

  • I’m totally a popular guy. So here’s the facts. For the first part of the reputation grinds:

    • I’m not grinding Knot Thimblejack runs. I may regret it later, but I need to be able to set foot in goblin towns, and honestly - doing speed runs through DM to kill just the bosses to get Gordok Shackle Keys is not getting me any more librams than just wandering in and slaughtering everything willy-nilly - in fact, it’s getting me less.

    • Killing pirates outside Ratchet nets me approximately 6000 rep per hour with Ratchet, because I can do it at top speed. Also, Baron Longshore is kind enough to simply count as 5 pirates. They also stop giving rep once I hit Revered with Ratchet. Keeping that in mind, I’m looking at having to kill approximately 10,771 Southsea Freebooters outside Ratchet, which will consume nearly 9 hours of my life.

    • Since these pirates also yield 2.5 reputation with the other 3 Steamwheedle factions when killed, I’ll gain approximately 26,926 rep with the other 3 as well.

  • So after finishing up Ratchet, where does that leave us, approximately?

    • Ratchet: 3/21000 Revered

    • Gadgetzan: 35504/36000 Hated

    • Everlook: 34981/36000 Hated

    • Booty Bay: 34981/36000 Hated

  • Well, uh, almost 1/4 of the way there!

    • Now it’s off to Gadgetzan. Here, killing the Southsea Pirates again nets me 5 rep a pirate until revered; again, Andre Firebeard is nice enough to count as 5 pirates. If I get bored I can go kill Wastewander Bandits, but unless there’s something I’m forgetting, they’re actually more spread out and would slow down my rep gain in Tanaris (3000/hr max) even more. Plus, Caliph Scorpidsting only counts as 3 pirates. Borrrrring (comparatively). Southsea it is.

    • Once again, we kill pirates! Luckily, it’s a lot fewer pirates to get to revered with Gadgetzan, thanks to all that grinding in Tanaris. I have to kill exactly 5500 pirates in Tanaris - approximately 10 hours. This tips me over into Revered with Gadgetzan, and adds another heap of rep to the other 3.

  • How much, approximately?

    • Ratchet: 13,753/21000 Revered

    • Gadgetzan: 4/21000 Revered

    • Everlook: 3731/6000 Friendly

    • Booty Bay: 3731/6000 Friendly

  • Well, not bad. Ratchet is well on its way. If I killed another 2900 pirates in Tanaris (and really, after I’ve killed five and a half thousand, what’s another 2900?), that’d finish off Ratchet - netting me 7,248 rep with the three non-Gadgetzan cities (roughly 2 and a half, maybe 3 hours). Now, approximately:

    • Ratchet: 1/999 Exalted

    • Gadgetzan: 4/21000 Revered

    • Everlook: 4979/12000 Honored

    • Booty Bay: 4979/12000 Honored

  • At this point, I have two choices: go back to doing Knot Thimblejack runs, or go back to Ratchet and grind their super-fast pirate rep grind until Everlook and Booty Bay ding exalted. I think I know which one I’m going to pick, don’t you? That’s 28,022 rep (roughly), or another 10 hours, or, in pirates, 11209 pirates. Putting me at:

    • Ratchet: 1/999 Exalted

    • Gadgetzan: 999/1000 Exalted

    • Everlook: 1/999 Exalted

    • Booty Bay: 1/999 Exalted

Oh, and then I still have to get exalted with Shen’dralar, exalted with Ravenholdt, and exalted with Darkmoon Faire.

Total Body Count: 30,380 pirates
Total Time Spent Just On Steamwheedle Reputation: 43-44 hours

Spot the madman!

Case Study: Spanish lifestyle offers ideal retirement choice

Fiona McGoran
Published: 25 July 2004
JOHN LOWE is looking forward to spending his golden years kicking back in sunny Spain with his wife. The events manager, in his fifties, bought a two-bedroom apartment in Calahonda on the Costa del Sol last year. “There are so many advantages to retiring in Spain,” he says. “The cost of living is substantially cheaper, the climate is great and the crime rate is lower.”

Lowe has already travelled to Calahonda four times this year and plans two more trips by the end of the year. “I am gradually spending more time in Spain. Within the next two years it will become my primary place of residence,” he says. “My wife will probably spend a bit more time commuting before making the final move.”

Lowe runs Sports and Leisure Promotions (SLP) and will remain involved in the business after he moves to Spain. He will establish a Spanish SLP office

The spies still out in the cold

The Cold War lives on in John Dugdale’s roundup of the latest thrillers

John Dugdale Published: 18 May 2014

Read the first chapter of Tigerman here

LESS FREEWHEELING than his two previous outings, which were sci-fi, Nick Harkaway’s Tigerman (Heinemann £16.99 / ST Bookshop £14.99 / ebook £9.99) is a peculiar but winning combination of a Graham Greene-like end-of-empire tale and lots of Lee Child-style baddie bashing. As Britain’s last representative on its former island colony Mancreu, Sergeant Lester Ferris has little to do until a cafe owner friend is shot dead by gangsters. Furious, and inspired by his conversations with a street kid addicted to comic books, he transforms himself into Tigerman, a costumed, unarmed superhero ready to take on all Mancreu’s evildoers. The novel is full of fine descriptive passages and memorable figures, ranging from a flirty Japanese scientist Lester falls for to his volatile and voluble American counterpart.

United move in for Modric

Champions set to turn to Croatian star to help fill the void left in their midfield following Paul Scholes' decision to retire

Duncan Castles Published: 5 June 2011

Luka Modric, Tottenham Hotspur (Neal Simpson) Modric signed a six-year contract extension with Spurs at the end of last season (Neal Simpson)

Sir Alex Ferguson has made the signing of Luka Modric a priority as he seeks to rebuild Manchester United’s midfield after the Champions League final defeat by Barcelona. The Croatian playmaker has opened the door to leaving Spurs, whom he joined for a club record £16.5m three years ago, by stating his desire for Champions League football next season.

Though Daniel Levy, the Tottenham chairman, will insist on a hefty fee for a player he signed to a six-year contract extension at the end of the 2009-10 season, Ferguson knows Spurs wish to trim an oversized squad and believes a deal can be struck.

In salary terms, Modric is a lower-cost alternative to Wesley Sneijder, the Dutch international sounded out by United earlier this year. Sneijder’s wages at Inter Milan are about £155,000 a week — a sum that would put him on a par with Wayne Rooney at Old Trafford.

Subject: [ADMIN] Complaints about Yahoo Ads....Ad Removal
Hi Ziners,

This is off-topic but useful. We picked-up this information in a listowners group we read:

There have always been complaints about receiving Yahoo Ads in group email messages.

If you change your Preferences to Receive TEXT messages instead of HTML messages you won't get those ads.

Since TheTravelzine group is set to strip attachments (and HTML is treated as an attachment) there is no reason for members of this list to be set to anything other than TEXT messages (60 characters per line looks best in the Yahoo message archive).

Another advantage: When you hit reply on a Text message the individual's email address is visible and it is much easier for you to reply off list when necessary... saves the trouble of checking the message headers (and reduces the embarrassment for those who don't know how :))

Do you have your Outlook Express set to respond with Plain Text to all messages? If so, then the above is what is expected to happen. However, if you have your Outlook Express set to reply in the format they were sent then you shouldn't... at least that's been my experience with it :) This helpful hint was directed at those who use the defaults and send/receive HTML all the time, even when not necessary.

This also makes it easier to Edit Your Messages (and thus makes it easier for the rest of the group to Read Your Messages, too :))

For those who need help Editing Your Messages, please check out this link: http://pages.ivillage.com/listmanager/FAQ60.html

To Edit Your Preferences for All your groups, go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/myprefs?email=(your-email-address-here)

To Edit Your Preferences for TheTravelzine group, go here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheTravelzine/join

In both cases select: [] Do not convert to HTML. Don't change the format of messages sent to me.

And click on Save Changes.

Please Note: This still allows you to receive HTML messages from groups that send HTML messages. TheTravelzine is set to strip attachments so by Converting to HTML you are asking Yahoo to place ads in your messages!

See http://www.expita.com/nomime.html for help in converting your email program to Plain Text messages.

Reminder: In Account information, EDIT your Marketing Preferences: OPT OUT!!!

As this is OFF TOPIC, please direct any follow-up or questions to TheTravelzine-owner@yahoogroups.com Messages sent to that address will be answered by the moderator on duty.

Thanks for your time and cooperation, Don and Linda Toronto http://www.thetravelzine.com

Closed hotel reopens for World Challenge

The Colony Inn Hotel has been transformed into Mariner House during the World Junior A Challenge. The hotel is being leased locally to increase room capacity. BELLE HATFIELD PHOTO

By Tina Comeau

A Yarmouth hotel that closed its doors nearly two years ago has been renamed and is being reopened, albeit only on a temporary basis, to help house two teams coming to Yarmouth for the World Junior A Challenge.

The Colony Harbour Inn, owned by Rodd Hotels and Resorts, has been renamed Mariner House and will house the visiting teams from the Czech Republic and Switzerland.

But it isn’t the owner of the hotel that is reopening the doors, rather the local world challenge organizing committee is leasing the property to help add to the room capacity needed in Yarmouth for this international sporting event. However Rodd Hotels and Resorts has given its blessing for the hotel to be used.

When Rodd closed the hotel in January 2011 – the property became a victim of Yarmouth not having regular ferry service – the company said it could be reopened on short notice to accommodate large-scale events happening in Yarmouth. And it was used to help increase room capacity for Nova Scotia Music Week and a couple of sporting tournaments.

But after the unoccupied hotel had experienced an undetected water leak in the summer of 2011 that resulted in a costly air-quality problem to fix, the company indicated that it wouldn’t be reopening the hotel for events.

However with an event such as the World Junior A Challenge, extra room capacity was needed. And so the local steering committee approached the hotel owner with a proposal.

“For whatever reason they decided they couldn’t (open it) so I made the offer to lease the property,” says Mitch Bonnar, chair of the hockey challenge. “Mr. (Mark) Rodd looked at it and looked at his commitment that he had made (two years ago). He wasn’t able to do it so this was the next best way to do it,” explains Bonnar. “I told him what I wanted to do and they very quickly came forward with an agreement and it was acceptable and away we went. He’s not making a lot of money on this and we aren’t either, but it does give us 60 extra rooms and we’re going to need them all.”

To open Mariner House, Bonnar says they had to have inspections of the property carried out, they had to clean the hotel and they had to make sure there were no water leaks.

“We basically had to go through every room,” he says. “They had moved some furniture up to the Grand Hotel so we had to put the rooms back together and move some stuff around.”

And although it isn’t Rodd that has reopened the property, Bonnar says it will operate almost exactly the way it did under Rodd’s control. He says to accomplish this they approached workers who had been laid off when the hotel closed.

 “I said you know your business . . . so rather than hire somebody that doesn’t know what’s going on why don’t you do it?  They jumped at the opportunity,” he says. “It gave them employment and they also wanted to help out.”

The other Rodd property in town, the Grand Hotel, is being converted into Canada House for the World Challenge, as this is where the Canada East and Canada West teams will stay. The USA and Russia teams are staying at the Comfort Inn and the Best Western Mermaid.

Yarmouth just recently hosted another large sporting event that also benefitted from the Colony Inn being leased for the world challenge. The Chicks with Sticks female hockey tournament attracted 22 teams, but also had to turn some away due to the unavailability of accommodations.  Since they were opening hotel rooms for the world challenge, Bonnar says they also opened up rooms for Chicks with Sticks.

“I did that for a couple of reasons. People need to realize we’re doing all of this for the community,” says Bonnar. “It’s a non-profit deal for sure and if we have to go through all this aggravation and pain of getting this hotel open again, let’s do it for the Chicks with Sticks too. I was told there were nine teams that couldn’t find a place to stay and couldn’t come. We reduced that by a fair number.”

3-D hologram wizardry now in India

   By  Quaid Najmi
20 Oct 2016

Posted 28 Jan 2013
Vol 4 Issue 4

Now you can get life-like 3-D hologram images of yourself to wow your family and friends. Welcome to the futuristic and exciting world of wizardry at India's - and Asia's - first 3-D hologram studio for recording live subjects in Kerala capital Thiruvananthapuram.

The studio has been set up by Light Logics, India, under the guidance of world-renowned holography scientist P.T. Ajith Kumar and supported by NRIs from the US, Britain and the Middle East.

"Holography is a technology to record and reconstruct light with its full information content, meaning light from a scene or a subject, which contains intensity and depth information. Unfortunately, in conventional photography, we can record only the intensity information of the light," Ajith Kumar explained to IANS during a recent visit to Mumbai.

Holograms and 3-D holographic images are recorded with laser light and with specialised equipment.

"This can record the whole information of the light field coming from a scene and recreate it elsewhere, virtually transporting space or a subject to a different location," Ajith Kumar said.

The possibilities of the studio are immense and awesome, with unprecedented display- related applications.

For instance, it can be used for recording life-like and visually stunning holograms of our national leaders, sports personalities, film stars and other celebrities.

Ajith Kumar said that there are some computer-generated holograms now available, but these are not suitable for living subjects as they distort the images and lead to pixelation.

"Many of such computer-generated projects and spectacle-less stereograms are erroneously termed as holograms for marketing gimmicks and catching customer interest," he added.

But, then, the 3-D holograms don't exactly come cheap - for instance, a single portrait of 6x40x30 cm can cost around Rs.20,000.

The same image, if produced on a mass scale and in smaller format could slash the cost to an affordable Rs.350 per copy, Ajith Kumar said.

"Recording images is just one of the applications. Holography has other crucial scientific and engineering possibilities. It can be used for testing the flatness of airport runways, precise non-destructive testing of aircraft tyres and oil pumping pipes, and extremely high-density data storage, making it both highly artistic and highly-technology oriented," Ajith Kumar said.

It is learnt that the Indian government is planning to record 3-D holographic images of top leaders like President Pranab Mukherjee, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and others for posterity, but through foreign companies.

Ajith Kumar has been working in the field of holography technology for over a quarter century with his Light Logics, bagging top honours in India and abroad.

The company won the ISBA National Award for the best Engineering Design Company in 2009 and two gold medals in the India Innovation Programme jointly organised by the Department of Science and Technology, Lockheed-Martin Corporation, Indo-US Science and Technology Forum, the University of Texas at Austin and FICCI.

In 2010, the company bagged a gold medal for developing a gen-next holographic weapon sight and in the following year for developing a fully-optical smartcard which could serve as a national ID card or health card - both of which need to store high-resolution images.

"This card is futuristic in terms of security features, ruggedness, data storage capacity and can be used as a unified ID device and as a secure financial transaction instrument like a credit or debit card," Ajith Kumar said.

Having perfected the technology, Ajith Kumar is now keen to set up 3-D hologram studios on a franchisee basis in all the metros, followed by all state capitals, with investment partners. The studio, copy studio and the technology package costs around Rs.2.5 crore (25 million rupees).

Despite the seemingly high investment, the break-even point could be achieved in less than a year, Ajith Kumar said.

"This technology is available in a handful of countries such as the US, Britain, Russia and France. But the price per hologram is the most cost-effective here, say, around one-third of the US. With awareness, it can be even cheaper," Ajith Kumar said.

A 3-D hologram studio, requiring 220 sq. ft. of space, would include a main camera, copy cameras and the studio system and the actual technology. Most of these, except the lasers, are manufactured in India.

"I am hopeful that soon, 3-D analogue holograms will become a mass consumption product, especially in India, South Asia and the Middle East," Ajith Kumar told IANS.

He also said that mass copied holograms of historical personalities like Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, mythological and religious personalities (Lord Ram, Mother Mary, Sai Baba), sports icons (Sachin Tendulkar, Sania Mirza), film-stars (Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif ) would be a major draw for fans, devotees and commoners alike. - IANS

When the day began, few could have anticipated that a saucer-shaped hot-air balloon flying erratically over the skies of Colorado this afternoon would attract such national and global attention. But the news that 6-year-old Falcon Heene had been the sole passenger aboard his family's homemade aircraft upon take-off changed everything: Cable-news, Twitter, Google, Facebook, indeed, the whole Internet followed the course of the balloon as it traversed the sky and finally came to a relatively soft landing at around 3:30 PM EST. However, as the first emergency-respondents discovered, the balloon was actually empty. The din became even more unclear when it was revealed that Heene's parents were reality-TV participants on the ABC show "Wife Swamp." As of 5 PM, the world continues to wait with bated breath, wondering where Falcon could possibly be, and whether it was all just a hoax to begin with. Updated, 6:20 p.m. Hot Air blogger Allahpundit refers to an NBC report the boy has been found safe at home. He also has a fantastic running-timeline/commentary of the events.

  • Overwhelming Twitter CNET's Caroline McCarthy was amazed at Twitter user's response time: "The microblogging service's timeline temporarily slowed to a crawl and its trending topics were filled with tags like Colorado, Denver, and #balloonboy...My colleague Stephen Shankland ran a test and found that in a 30-second span, 836 tweets mentioned the word 'balloon.'"
  • Impossible to Intercept  Resigning himself to a run-down of aviation facts, The Globe and Mail's Peter Cheney made the case for why "rescuing a child in a runaway ballon...is nearly impossible." He compared the physical properties of balloons to other aircraft, noting that a blimp theoretically offered the best solution. However, all of his points were made moot when the balloon finally touched down on its own.
  • Father-Son Project Gone Wrong  TechCrunch's Jimin Brelsford commented on the reports that the balloon was a pet project of "storm-chaser" father Richard Heene. "Father-son projects are quite the American tradition. Everything from pine-box derby racers, to bike repairs, to experimental aircraft it seems. Wait what?" He later updated the post to reflect the ambiguity of the situation: "There is some talk of a hoax. Either the kid fell off during the initial ascent or this is a strange, strange hoax."
  • Fooling Everyone?  The freshest reports suggest that the entire story could have been a hoax swallowed hook, line and sinker by an overzealous, scoop-hungry media. CJR's Megan Garber recast comments from MSNBC's David Shuster as "highly inappropriate," yet he was among the first to ask "Did the boy fallout along the way, or this part of some hoax, an effort for attention by the family a lot of people are already suggesting is a strange family to begin with?" Shortly thereafter, Greg Mitchell implicated the media for acting on impulse, without verifying their sources: "A local sheriff's spokesman has now said they believe boy never got in the craft and may be hiding in the neighborhood. In any case, the press and news agencies reported for hours that a boy was in the balloon, without many qualifiers, even though the only witness was a sibling who saw him climb inside."
  • We're Sick For Watching It In the First Place chastised several bloggers. Salon's Heather Havrilesky provided readers with a thorough summary of the story thus-far before turning self-accusatory: "However this heart-stopping spectacle ends, it momentarily transformed us into 21st century rubberneckers, anxious to make ourselves sick over the tragic news story of the moment." Offering a comparable indictment of the media apparatus, Mediaite's Colby Hall was unrepentant for an initial post in which he called the cable-news coverage "just wrong" because it could have shown the child getting hurt or dying.

As his wife and daughter mull their next professional moves, Bill Clinton is telling friends that Chelsea Clinton and husband Marc Mezvinsky are "working on" fusing their gametes to create a new organism that will carry forth a significant number of Clinton chromosomes to a new generation of maybe-maybe-not politicians. The elder Clinton offered this update on his offspring's progress toward perpetuating the species to a fellow guest at an awards ceremony at the University of Limerick, the New York Post's Page Six reports. This is an important development in the American social organization, because while the presidency is officially not a hereditary position, it pays to be born into certain kinship groups. At the fancy party, the Post reports, Clinton was less forthcoming over whether his own mate would attempt to recapture his old position. Will Hillary run for president in 2016? "You'll have to ask her," Clinton said.

So far, she's not answering. Hillary Clinton will quit her job as Secretary of State soon after President Obama begins his second term, a move many see as preparation for running for president in 2016. But she has tried to avoid answering questions about her presidential ambitions, saying things like, "Maybe I’ll get a decorating show." Anthropological research indicates organisms seeking to claim the apex of American society must not be seen as "wanting it too much," a phenomenon that appears to be especially true of the kin of previous dominant societal members. (This may be due to the necessity of appearing to have "earned it" when competing for an officially non-hereditary role.)

And while Hillary is coy about her future plans, daughter Chelsea — an occasional NBC reporter — is even more shy, leaving allies to promote the idea her own future candidacy. When a local report suggested the youngest Clinton might run for Congress in New York's 18th district, a Clinton spokesman told the New York Daily News late last year that "This is 100% false." This after Hillary's longtime aide (and Anthony Weiner husband) Huma Abedin told Vogue that Chelsea only recently grasped the significance of her genetic inheritance:

"As she’s been exposed to the foundation and to what her father’s doing with his post-presidential life... I think a light switched on: This is the legacy I’m going to inherit. To say it is an incredible one is an understatement. She now knows that in 20, 30 years, everything about her father’s legacy is in her hands. It’s going to be Chelsea’s responsibility to carry that torch. This is the core of what her grandmother encouraged her to do: embrace her inheritance."

As Chelsea lays the groundwork to claim her inheritance, it's only natural that in the meantime she would ensure her genetic material is passed on well into the 2048 election cycle, and that her father would monitor her progress.

‘Snooki and JWOWW’ Preview is 2 Minutes of Orange-Skinned Bliss (Video)

"Jersey Shore" spinoff "Snooki and JWOWW"' delivers loud, obnoxious behavior and vulgarity — totally shocking, we know

"Jersey Shore" spinoff "Snooki and JWOWW" premieres June 21 on MTV, and because this sort of momentous event in television history shouldn't be entered into cold, the network has released a snippet of the classic-to-be so that we may all prepare ourselves adequately.

The series finds "Jersey Shore"'s breakout stars spreading their wings and moving into their own pad in Jersey City, New Jersey, where they will surely learn to live, laugh and love all over again.

The preview, which MTV released Thursday, is punctuated with shots of Snooki and JWoww carrying on in bars, screaming randomly and cursing — oh, and there are hints of Snooki's motherhood-to-be nestled in there too, because at its heart this is a family-values affair.

Check out a sneak preview of "Snooki and JWOWW" in the video.

LogMeIn App for iPhone, iPod Touch & iPad [iOS App Review] – Free & Paid Versions

By on May 31, 2013 in iOS Applications with 0 Comments

Have you ever wanted an app that could control your computer at home or office from anywhere in the world? This app can truly amaze us with some of the quality features packed into it. You could be on a flight, or a train or even in a hotel far away, you can always be in the loop by using this awesome application that can enable you to control your PCs or Macs from anywhere in the world. The LogMeIn app was created by LogMeIn, Inc, so here is an app review.

Once you’ve installed the LogMeIn app on your iPhone or iPad, you can connect to your Mac or PC remotely using either 3G or Wi-Fi but you should install either LogMeIn Pro or LogMeIn Free in your computer before you can do this.

LogMeIn App iPad

LogMeIn App Features

There are quite a lot of things you could do using this unique app, which can access files and can even run applications remotely, which means you’re in complete control over your computer. So with this app, there is no longer a need for you to stay in a place because you can’t access your files from anywhere else. Its almost like carrying your computer with you, but you don’t have it with you.

Some of the things that this app can do is that you can get your computer files and edit them right away from your iPhone or iPad, run applications directly, and you get to use your computer just like you’re sitting in front of it. The app also provides multi-monitor support, special key combinations, and both intuitive and flexible control modes. Another highlight seems to be that you can even start a sleeping computer with Wake-on-LAN.

The app is fast, and doesn’t have any sort of lag while functioning. When you want to connect to a computer, you need to enter the PV credentials to get in. Although the interface is just like a computer while you’re connected to your PC, there are a list of handy on-screen gestures you could use to control your computer. Double taps are recognized as double clicks, two finger taps go down as right click, and you can even drag apps by double tapping and sliding and there are a lot more gestures you could use.

So, some of the highlights about the app include:

  • Access files and run apps remotely
  • Control your computer from your iOS device
  • Multi-monitor support
  • Wake-on-LAN feature to start a sleeping computer

LogMeIn App iPad Settings LogMeIn App Manager

The best thing about this app seems to be that it offers really good performance and this could be called one of the top productivity apps in recent years. Although the app is optimized for the iPhone 5 it works on all three of them the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, but requires iOS 4.3 or later.

Download LogMeIn App for iPhone, iPod Touch & iPad

To download the app, you can visit the iOS app store by visiting this link: LogMeIn App

Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. Requires iOS 4.3 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.

There are two versions of this app:

  • LogMeIn which is free, which comes with all the standard features and will be suitable for all of the casual iOS users.
  • LogMeIn Pro, which needs you to pay annual ($39.99), 6 month ($29.99) or 3 month ($19.99) but it does come with some killer features that’s not available in the free version but its for people who need a lot more than just connecting to your computer remotely.

Recipe For The Perfect Bed~Warm Climate or Cooler Climate

You may remember I took a trip to Atlanta last summer to teach a design class at the Haven Conference.  One of the topics I covered was "The Recipe For The Perfect Bed". In addition to providing a few top secret tips I also covered some bedding topics I discussed in a blog post a few years ago.  Yesterday, I read that one of my fellow bloggers, Lindsay from Makely School For Girls attended the class, read my post and was inspired to make some adjustments to the recipe to adapt to her southern climate.  Lindsay wrote an article on the topic and shares a beautiful example of a colorful, comfortable, perfectly dressed bed in her warm climate (Texas) home.

Here is my original post...

While shopping with a special client, she fell in love with this gray and white bedding at a local boutique. There were two different sets.  One gray cotton/linen duvet set and a white cotton ruched coverlet set. When both bedding sets were combined with carefully chosen inserts this little piece of heaven came to Earth...

Here are the ingredients:

1.  100% Egyptian cotton sheets, 500 thread count.
 (The cool organic feel of these sheets is totally worth the investment. And the wrinkles).

2.  2 Base pillows for sleeping with firm feather-down blend inserts cased in the sheet set shams.  Feather-down blend inserts hold their karate chopped shape the best. They are also insanely comfortable.

3.  Three Large Euro shams filled with feather-down blend Euro pillow inserts.  Two in Gray (matching the duvet cover) and one in white with an adorable ruffled box edge.

4.  One white cotton ruched coverlet

5.  One gorgeous cotton/linen gray duvet cover.

6.  One king sized feather/down high loft maximum fill duvet insert.

7.  Two standard sized white ruched pillow shams with feather/down extra firm inserts and one gray decorative toss pillow.

8.  Two white decorative ruched toss pillows.

And there you have it...

® The Yellow Cape Cod

  1. Great post-where did you get the headboard?

  2. I love this. Where did you find the grey duvet cover and shams?

  3. I love this. Where did you find the grey duvet cover and shams?

  4. While this bed does looks beautiful, I really don't understand how 10 pillows is necessary or convenient. All I see when I look at beds with so many pillows are all of them thrown on the floor while sleeping and never being put back. Can someone with this many pillows tell me how their partner feels about them because I know my man would be saying "no way."

    1. One must designate a chair or window seat for them to look equally as gorgeous on when the bed is in use. When we care this much about the beauty of our surroundings every moment of each day, we put them in place perfectly. : )

  5. Would love to know as well where you found the bed frame/headboard?

  6. I'd like to know where you found the bedding also, as well as the inserts for the duvet. Can I find something like that at Target?

  7. I'd like to know where you found the bedding also, as well as can you find similar duvet inserts at a Target?

  8. Great tutorial. There's nothing like climbing into a perfectly made bed!

  9. Love this post!! Will you share with your readers where we can find the bedding?

  10. Thank you! The bedding was purchased at a local boutique, "The Iron Grate" in Fenton, Michigan. If you are ever in the area, you must visit. It is a fabulous shoppe! The inserts and sheets were purchased at Macy's. Best, Sarah

  11. This is gorgeous. I am decorating my living room / office / art space with these colors plus some deep green and deeper azures to brighten. Working on an online inspiration colour board and found your website. Enjoyed thoroughly. Thanks.

CFP Board to Investigate CFPs for Inaccurate Comp Disclosure

Chairman Ferrara says Board will compare public information with 'Find a CFP' listings to identify inconsistencies, help CFPs comply

The goal of the CFP Board investigation is "not to play 'Gotcha!'" CEO Kevin Keller says. The goal of the CFP Board investigation is "not to play 'Gotcha!'" CEO Kevin Keller says.

The Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards sent a letter Wednesday to all 70,000 CFP certificants explaining a new investigative process the Board will take to identify certificants who inaccurately disclose their compensation methods on the Board website’s “Find a CFP” tool.

Board Chairman Ray Ferrara, CFP, said in an interview Wednesday that the investigation will begin with those who call themselves fee-only advisors “because that’s where there’s the biggest opportunity for confusion and potential abuse.”

The investigation will be conducted, said Ferrara, “on a risk-adjusted basis, randomly” selecting certificants who have ticked the “fee only” box on its website, then consulting information “in the public domain to make sure the compensation they’ve disclosed is what’s consistent with their actual business practices.” That information, said Ferrara, will start with an “informal check-in” with the certificant but will also include “social media, a website, a form ADV, anything else that we could Google” about the certificant.

CEO Kevin Keller said in the same interview that “our real objective is to help facilitate compliance. It’s not to play 'Gotcha!' or catch people doing things wrong but to help them comply with our standards.”

In the letter, the interview and in an op-ed in Investment News, Ferrara admitted that the Board “could have done a better job” in “rolling out our Find a CFP tool, especially when we added compensation as a choice.” He also said that “when we recognized there might be multiple people who did not have the proper box checked” concerning compensation on the site, “we made a decision and took down all 8,000 and sent out a notice, said these are our rules, double check and put yourselves back up in the proper box.” In addition, “at that time we said there would be additional steps taking place, and if we find anyone has still misrepresented their compensation we might open up an investigation.”

The issue with the CFP Board’s compensation came to light first with the departure of former CFP Board Chairman Alan Goldfarb and three other Board members following a sanction over their failure to comply with the Board’s fee-only definition, and most notably via a lawsuit filed by certificants Jeff and Kim Camarda of Camarda Wealth Advisory in Fleming Island, Florida, who also fell short of the Board’s fee-only strictures.

That lawsuit continues, and Ferrara said Tuesday that “with regards to the case … the Board has consistently said that we want to defend this lawsuit vigorously because it goes to the heart of who we are and what we stand for.” Specifically, he said the Board “provided the Camardas with a full and fair process, which was the same process that anyone who has allegations made against them” will receive. The Board’s disciplinary and ethics commission, and the appeals committee “made up of the board of directors agreed” in the Camardas' case “that the rules were broken and we won’t back down from the court case.”

In fact, those certificants who are investigated under the Board’s new process and whose compensation is identified as being inconsistent will go through the same process as the Camardas, Ferrara said. If the Board’s investigation finds out that a ‘fee-only’ CFP is, for instance, “licensed with five insurance companies, that will obviously cause us to do a referral to our professional standards department which will begin the normal investigative process and follow the full and fair process that the Camardas and others who have been in the news recently went through.”

In addition to its investigation of CFPs who call themselves fee only, the Board also announced in its letter that it is offering “any company, no matter how large or small, to contact us through their compliance officers” to report any CFPs at their firms who have listed themselves as fee only and are not. “They’ll be taken down, to keep inadvertent errors from occurring.”

Ferrara stressed that “CFP Board is compensation- and business-model neutral,” that “competent and ethical financial planning can be done regardless of business model,” and moreover “that it can be done with the fiduciary standard of care when practicing financial planning. Every professional at all times must put the needs of the clients ahead of his or her own.”

The Beatles -- 58% of your votes

Two months after the assassination of President Kennedy--a sad, scary time for 13 year-olds like me -- The Beatles came to America, bringing fun, cheekiness, intelligence, and belief in the power of music to transform the then dreary landscape. When George Harrison wrote "Here Comes the Sun" years later, he might well have been writing about the four boys who lit and warmed the winter of 1964. No one inspired the baby boomers more than The Beatles. They gave us hope.

The votes are in and viewers overwhelming chose The Beatles as the artists that had the greatest impact on history. Read what viewers had to say about all the artists below, including the winning nomination submissions.

Making Room: Meeting New York’s Housing Demands

October 07, 2011 at 11:34 am

Where: Japan Society of New York, 333 East 47th Street
When: Nov. 7, 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

New York City has a remarkably diverse population and, in many respects, a remarkably heterogeneous housing stock to provide it shelter. From Riverdale to Tottenville, Flushing to Chelsea, Washington Heights to Jackson Heights to Brooklyn Heights, New Yorkers inhabit an amazing spectrum of residential building types, developed and accumulated over the history of the city. At many critical junctures over the last century and a half, New York City has been an innovative leader in housing regulation and finance, encouraging and shaping development to ensure that dwellings are safe and respond to evolving standards of livability.

But even with the great resources of its varied housing stock and its strong tradition of housing advocacy and reform, New York has a hard time producing enough housing to meet demand. And in moments of economic and social transition, housing supply and housing need can get seriously out of whack.

In the video above, Citizens Housing & Planning Council Executive Director Jerilyn Perine (who was formerly the commissioner of the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development), Architectural League Executive Director Rosalie Genevro, Chhaya Community Development Corporation Executive Director Seema Agnani and Blesso Properties President and Founder Matthew Blesso discuss the state of the city’s housing. Video courtesy of UrbanOmnibus

Over the last several years, the Citizens Housing & Planning Council (CHPC) has been researching and analyzing how and where New York’s residents live and the housing that is available to them. Their findings have revealed many discrepancies between the kinds of houses and apartments people need and those they can find.

The organization has identified New York City’s accreted mass of housing regulations and standards — all created with progressive and worthy goals in mind — as one of the factors that contributes to this mismatch. For example, regulations have tilted what the housing market produces towards larger units, for households assumed to be “families,” even though only 17 percent of New York’s dwelling units are occupied by traditional nuclear families. A huge underground or improvised housing market has developed over the last two decades as people try, often in desperation, to find places to live that are affordable and can accommodate their particular needs.

Around the world, architects, developers and policymakers are responding to the shifting demands of urban dwellers with new forms of housing in ways New York is not. In 2009, the Citizens Housing & Planning Council brought architects from Tokyo, Barcelona, San Diego, Montreal and Leipzig to New York for a landmark symposium (read coverage of that event here) that introduced an audience of housing experts from design, development, law, policy and government to the vanguard of housing design for 21st century cities.

This symposium was part of a broader project — called “Making Room” — to take a fresh look at how housing and space standards constrict the choices architects and developers are able to introduce into New York’s housing market. To move that project forward, CHPC asked the Architectural League to join with them to carry out a design study to produce new models for comfortable, desirable dwellings. Four teams of leading New York architects, each with expertise and a particular perspective, have been asked to respond to this challenge.

On Monday, November 7, the architects and their teams — Stan Allen and Rafi SegalDeborah GansPeter Gluck; and Jonathan Kirschenfeld — will present their ideas in an all-day symposium. This event is only one part of a much larger research and advocacy project that will include exhibiting these designs publicly and identifying what laws and codes currently on the books are preventing new modes of residential living from becoming available.

New Albany News

Jones: Girl injured in alleged hit-skip expected to recover

A 14-year-old girl who was struck in an alleged hit-skip accident July 8 in New Albany is expected to fully recover, said interim police Chief Greg Jones.

"When she was transported (to Nationwide Children's Hospital), we were told she was in critical condition, but within days, she was upgraded," Jones said. "It doesn't appear that any of the injuries are life-threatening and the family has indicated that she was recovering.

"I do not believe there will be any type of permanent physical injury."

The 14-year-old was riding in a battery-operated vehicle made for young children on Walnut Street near New Albany Links Drive about 9 p.m. July 8.

She was being pushed by another 14-year-old girl, who, reports said, is not from Ohio.

In front of them was a 13-year-old girl from out of state who was walking with a scooter, Jones said.

A pickup truck then struck the girl in the battery-operated vehicle and left the scene, police said.

The 14-year-old girl who was pushing the battery-operated vehicle said she was nicked by the vehicle. She was treated at the scene and was not transported to the hospital, according to reports.

The 13-year-old was not injured in the accident, Jones said.

Once the incident was publicized, Jones said, tips came in rapidly.

"I personally was impressed with the amount of tips we received almost immediately as the information aired on the (television) news," Jones said. "The tips came in for days and the tips were very helpful.

"People in the community were watching and it was very helpful to us in trying to help us resolve the case as soon as possible."

Police recovered a full-size pickup truck July 10 they believe was involved and interviewed a suspect who they said might have been driving the vehicle at the time.

Jones said July 15 the department was issuing search warrants and trying to wrap up the case before filing charges.

"We want to take necessary steps to make sure it's done right," Jones said. "We are consulting with the prosecutor and obtaining search warrants and interviewing people.

"With a department of our size, we do not have 10 officers working on this," he added. "We might have two to three doing all the work. We're interested in making sure this is done correctly and making sure we have all the information we need to give to the prosecutor."

Jones said he's pleased with the pace of the investigation and is glad that it was not more serious.

"Really, (the victim) was very fortunate that she was not more seriously injured or worse, considering the size of the vehicle she was in versus vehicle that struck her," Jones said. "I'm pleased to see that she's going to be OK and is going to recover from this."

Screen Shot 2015-12-31 at 3.19.39 PM.png

We make videos to help those who inspire us.

The social workers and the moms and the entrepreneurs.
The get-no-credit people in this world who are making a difference.

Our videos are crafted with thought and care so that people can focus
on what they need to focus on: their mission.

"Fisherman" - Nature Conservancy

Created to help sway public opinion surrounding a legislative vote that threatened the livelihoods of Mainers, the video helped push the legislation through targeted outreach. The film went on to tour the state with the Camden International Film Festival.

"When We Bake" - Country Crock

In collaboration with Story Worldwide we took a simple story about a real mom in Ohio and brought in over 7.2 million views in the first few months.

"21 in 1" - Motorola

In collaboration with VML, we followed famed photographer Ryan Schude as he attempted to take his most challenging photo yet using only a cellphone. "21 in 1" and the ambitious interactive instagram campaign surrounding it, went on to be shortlisted for a Webby award.

"Reissued" - Motorola

In collaboration with VML, Motorola "Reissued" garnered over 30k organic views within 24 hours of launching online. It went on to be picked up by Mashable, The Verge, and Hypebeast among others.

"Faces of Millennial" - Radiotopia, PRX

We wanted to strip away the flashy production value and make a video that was just all story and heart. After interviewing dozens of young people from around the world we created an unscripted and intimate film about being a part of this misunderstood generation.

"Remember Me" - BRWP

How do you get a community to care about their watershed? By featuring only real community members (no actors) and real archive footage dating back to the 1930's we were able to make an emotional connection between the people and their water. This short film when on to win a regional EMMY for best PSA.

"Go Jackson Doll" - Gliding Stars

What began as a fundraising tool went on to play at film festivals across the country. It's currently used as an awareness and educational tool at organizations such as the Akron Children's Hospital and visiting professors at USC.

"Instead of Your Name" - Alzheimer's Association

After premiering to a standing room only crowd, a fund was established to handle the sudden increase in fundraising dollars for Alzheimer's programs. It since has become the single largest source of new donors for the Findlay-Hancock Community Foundation.

Here is a taste of what it's like working with us...

We believe that embracing the spontaneous, making people feel at home and having fun make for better people and better films.

Have an idea for a collaboration? Or curious to learn more?

What’s the difference between TimberSeal and other contractors that may perform a similar service?

Well… SIMILAR may be too strong of a word to be quite honest. First allow us to tell you what you might find out there when obtaining other estimates to complete your project.  In the now 12 years of being a Certified Wood Care Contractor we’ve seen many companies come and go in a very short time frame.  These “companies” pop up one day and are gone the next as within many industries and base their restoration procedures off of what they feel is a common sense approach to cleaning…. well….. anything for that matter.  Keep this one thing in mind and answer me this:

Would you wash your clothes, car or body without using the proper quality detergents and cleaners? We would certainly hope not!

Nine out of every ten estimates you will get will be an offer to come in and pressure wash your wood using 3000 psi or more pressure from a pressure washer.  THIS IS NOT HOW YOU RESTORE WOOD!  These toothpick factories continue to blast exterior wood thereby causing PERMANENT damage to the substrate.  High Pressure removes the sapwood and lignin that rest on the surface of the wood.  This leaves sharp edges, gouges and splintering on the wood creating a surface that will now require EXTENSIVE sanding to repair.  Worse yet some wood will have to be replaced due to damage that is beyond repair.

The Solution?  TIMBERSEAL.  We use a proprietary process utilizing cleaners and brighteners that allow us to safely restore the wood with much lower pressures and a gentle cleaning approach.  The cleaners and brighteners act to break down the failed finishes, oxidation, dirt, grime, mold and mildew so that they can be RINSED away with 800 psi or less in a very non-aggressive approach.  Learn more about our wood care process.

The second major concern you should have when choosing a contractor is in learning about the finish they intend to put down.  The bottom line rests in that most finishes are designed with a purpose in mind.  Unfortunately some of the technologies behind those finishes is still lacking.  In every box store in the nation you’ll find acrylic and latex based deck stains.  These solid in nature finishes give a painted appearance to anything you apply them to due to their opaque nature.  Unfortunately its usually only months to a year later that homeowners find out something awful.   ITS PEELING!  The honest answer to this problem is that “to date” the manufactures have not engineered an acrylic or latex finish that will hope up on horizontal deck surfaces exposed to the weather.  They continue to market these “eco-friendly” alternatives but the truth is they will create a very large problem for you in the near future leaving you with one of two options.

Option A:  Clean and Recoat the surface annually as it peels and chips away
Option B:
 Hire a contractor to come in and remove the mess in order to get it down to a stable and sound surface.  A very difficult but not impossible task.

The Solution? TIMBERSEAL At TimberSeal we’re tried and true believers in that  PENETRATING OIL BASED FINISHES are the only way to go.  Natural oils and sugars are washed from the wood over the years as it weathers so it only makes sense to replenish what’s lost. On another note however you’ll find that not all oil based finishes created are equal as well.  As if there wasn’t enough for you to worry about!

Alfie Brown – Soul for Sale

Alfie Brown – Soul for Sale
© Max Knight
After a comedy industry bigwig told Alfie Brown he should 'be funny, not clever – nobody cares how clever you are,' the comic wrote this angry, unapologetic riposte tackling the corporate watering down of his most loved art form. It's not just the comedy industry which receives his vitriol; Adele's tax complaints and the bizarre censorship laws of pop music are attacked, and not always with successful punchlines. In fact, just as the industry player told him, Brown often sacrifices laughs for cleverness, but it's no bad thing in this case; he's genuinely exciting to watch and raises intriguing questions. Brown's an interesting, intelligent and bold new comedy voice – most definitely one to watch.

Rhino poacher filmed in action

Sapa | 09 November, 2012 08:30
IN THE DOCK: (From right:) Harry Claasens, Tool Sriton, Marnus Steyl, Punpitak Chunchom and Chomlong Lemthongthai make an appearance in the Kempton Park Magistrate's Court on charges related to rhino poaching. File photo.

A video of a rhino hunt by game farmer Marnus Steyl, against whom criminal charges relating to rhino poaching were withdrawn this week, has surfaced.

The Mail&Guardian published  the video on its website on Friday, which was filmed in January last year, and shows Steyl, accompanied by a professional hunter, repeatedly shooting a rhino.

It shows the animal crying as it struggles to stand up after the first shot, then shows several people taking turns posing next to the animal with a rifle.

The National Prosecuting Authority withdrew charges against Steyl in the Kempton Park Magistrate's Court this week.

He had been accused alongside Thai national Chumlong Lemthongthai with, among other things, illegally trading in and exporting rhino horn.

Lemthongthai pleaded guilty and was convicted this week. He is said to be the most senior member of a rhino horn smuggling ring ever convicted in the country.

Charges against another Thai national Punpitak Chunchom were also withdrawn, reported the Mail&Guardian.

It quoted NPA Gauteng spokeswoman Phindi Louw as saying there were several reasons for the withdrawal of the charges, including that the case was "based on circumstantial evidence".

Lemthongthai is scheduled to be sentenced on Friday.

The Tel Aviv International Student Film Festival is getting a giant boost this year. A New York Giants boost, to be exact.

Steve Tisch, the chairman and executive vice president of the New York City football team, will serve as president of the renowned student film fest, which was created by Tel Aviv University in 1986 and has gained a name as one of the most important stages for amateur filmmaking work in the world. Tisch, whose family co-owns the New York Giants and sponsored the Tisch Family Zoological Gardens in Jerusalem, is also a well-known film and television producer whose projects include “Forrest Gump,” “Snatch” and “Risky Business.”

Tisch will be on hand in Israel for the fest, which is held every two years and this year is scheduled to run from May 31 to June 7. The festival will feature 250 films, including 70 films from more than 40 countries in the international competition.

“Our students will have the privilege of learning from Mr. Tisch, who is a role model known for his achievements in the film industry,” said Tel Aviv University President Yosef Klafter.

Despite their spot on the East Coast, the New York Giants are perhaps the most Hollywood-connected team in the NFL. In addition to Tisch, their other co-owner is John Mara, whose nieces Rooney and Kate have made names for themselves acting in “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” and “House of Cards,” respectively.

Even if they ask nicely, ICE won’t likely find many voluntary deportees

August 19, 2008

Federal immigrations officials, unable to even slow the flow of illegal immigrants into the United States, have come up with one of the most ridiculous ideas ever to originate in Washington, D.C. - and that's saying a lot.

They're not offal: Canadian Celtic rockers Enter the Haggis have crowd-funded previous releases, but for their upcoming "The Penny Black Project," they are creating it based on story submissions from their fans. See how it's going when they play The Egg in Albany on Friday, April 4.

Sexton in town: Syracuse singer-songwriter and force-of-nature vocalist Martin Sexton stops at The Egg on Friday, April 25.

Low Beat aims high: One-time Modern Lover Jonathan Richman is still plying the solo singer-songwriter trade, and he'll show it off at the brand new The Low Beat in Albany on Monday, March 17.

Upstate Nails it: Country singer David Nail has a hit single, "Whatever She's Got," on radio right now, and the full album, "I'm a Fire," due out in early March. You'll have them both memorized by the time he plays the Upstate Concert Hall in Clifton Park on Thursday, April 24, along with Sam Hunt. Next, the Concert Hall will put you in a trance when composer, producer and DJ Markus Schulz arrives on Friday, April 25. Khomha opens the show.

JD for what Ale's you: Modern-day rockabilly singer-songwriter J.D. McPherson is still riding high from his 2012 debut, "Signs and Signifiers." But maybe he'll have some new music by the time he plays The Ale House in Troy for a two-night stint on Sunday, March 2, and Monday, March 3.

Web Server Software Breakdown: Malware Distribution

A great write-up on the Google Online Security Blog about the percentage of each web server platform that is distributing malware or hosting browser exploits that lead to drive-by-downloads.

We examined about 70,000 domains that over the past month have been either distributing malware or have been responsible for hosting browser exploits leading to drive-by-downloads. The breakdown by server software is depicted below. It is important to note that while many servers serve malware as a result of a server compromise (by remote exploits, password theft via keyloggers, etc.), some servers are configured to serve up exploits by their administrators.

Compared to our sample of servers across the Internet, Microsoft IIS features twice as often (49% vs. 23%) as a malware distributing server. Amongst Microsoft IIS servers, the share of IIS 6.0 and IIS 5.0 remained the same at 80% and 20% respectively. Source: Web Server Software and Malware

Now, I can already here the Linux and Mac crowd going, of course they are number one, their security sucks, etc, etc. What is interesting about this post, is the breakdown by country of origin.

Web server distribution by countryMalicious web server distribution by country

See that? Almost all of the IIS web servers in China and about 75% of them in South Korea are distributing malware or hosting browser exploits. They attribute that in the article to software piracy, mostly because you can’t update it if it is pirated, of course, but I am sure part of it is that it makes it easier to host the browser exploits and malware, etc. Although, in Germany, Apache is the most likely web server to get you infected, in contrast to most other areas. Always try to keep your web server software as patched as you can, and only host with companies that are proactive about doing such things, if there are any out there.

There are several tools out that can help you check your website to see if it is ditributing malware, one such tool is Spybye, and on their site they list a couple others.

During HotBots last month, I presented a paper on a systematic approach for detecting malware on the web called “The Ghost In The Browser”. The paper enumerates all the different ways in which a web page can become malicious and contains some measurements on the prevalance of drive-by-downloads; an in depth analysis of 4.5 million URLs detected 450,000 that were surreptitiously installing malware. All the more reason for tools such as SpyBye. Fortunately, I am not the only one working on such tools. Christian Seifert from the New Zealand Honeypot Alliance recently announced a web interface to their Capture honey client which runs a browser against URLs specified by you. In a similar vein, Shelia is a tool that scans your mail folder and follows URLs contained in it for malware and exploits. Source: SpyBye: Finding Malware

I believe the author was one of the writers of the Ghost in the Browser paper, I first mentioned here.
