How to Learn Any Language Books

May 31, 2008

How to Learn Any Language BooksHow to Learn Any Language: Quickly, Easily, Inexpensively, Enjoyably and on Your Own. This is a really interesting book on learning languages, written by a guy who speaks 20-something different languages!
There really isn’t a step-by-step method here, but there are lots of helpful suggestions if you are looking to learn a new language. Also some great ideas about memory and how to remember all the new vocabulary. Gives a nice view of lots of different languages you may choose to learn, though sometimes I don’t know how useful that is. Sure, Indonesian is easy to learn, but will it ever come in handy? If you’re learning a language (or considering it) you’ll probably find some interesting stuff here.

Conan the King comics, is a Cimmerians

May 24, 2008

Conan the King comics, Conan is a Cimmerian (not to be confused with the historical Cimmerians), a barbarian of the far north; he was born on a battlefield and is the son of a blacksmith. He grew up fast: by age fifteen he was already a respected warrior, participating in the destruction of the Aquilonian outpost of Venarium. After this he was struck by wanderlust and began the colorful and exciting adventures chronicled by Howard (and subsequently, after Howard’s death, by others), encountering fabulous monsters, evil wizards, and beautiful wenches and princesses - he has travelled throughout the world and been a thief and outlaw, a mercenary and commander of a mercenary company, and a pirate. He begins building larger units of men, aiming for greater territorial ambitions, though his efforts are repeatedly thwarted - usually by the total massacre of his force excepting himself. But in his forties he finally succeeds, becoming king of Aquilonia, the most powerful kingdom of the age, having strangled the previous ruler on the steps of the throne. Although Conan’s adventures often result in him performing heroic feats, his motive is more than often his own survival, enrichment or rise to power and he thus displays many of the characteristics of an anti-hero.

Windows Forensics-The Field Guide For Corporate Computer Investigations

May 10, 2008

Windows Forensics-The Field Guide For Corporate Computer InvestigationsAn arcane pursuit a decade ago, forensic science today is a household term. And while the computer forensic analyst may not lead as exciting a life as TV’s CSIs do, he or she relies just as heavily on scientific principles and just as surely solves crime.

Whether you are contemplating a career in this growing field or are already an analyst in a Unix/Linux environment, this book prepares you to combat computer crime in the Windows world. Here are the tools to help you recover sabotaged files, track down the source of threatening e-mails, investigate industrial espionage, and expose computer criminals.

Computer forensics applies the same scientific principles as other forensics fields to the identification, acquisition, and analysis of digital evidence. With the advent of the Internet, both network and system forensics are becoming increasingly interrelated. The digital evidence sought by an analyst might reside on any number of devices, including personal digital assistants (PDAs), USB pen drives, digital cameras, and cell phones. Additionally, all modern operating systems are network capable, and it is rare to find standalone PCs with no external connections, providing further evidence on routers, servers, firewalls, and proxys. The field of computer forensics encompasses both system forensics and network forensics, and an understanding of both is required to conduct a thorough investigation.
