Massive Internet Outage last night? (Partial)

Evening Herr KaLeun. I too have always been surprised that this charge was the last large scale one, but it is how I remember it.
Just to be sure, I did google last  British cavalry charge and found and read of the one you mention about an hour ago!

On the 24th May 1864 Grant gifted Lee the  kind of opportunity that rarely happens in a campaign: to wreck the other’s army.
After the bloodletting of May 5-12th, that cost Lee 22000 casualties and Grant 34000,'weakening both armies by 33% and 25% respectively, Grant again disengaged and moved South towards Richmond. Lee had followed and had been reinforced with 7 small Brigades from his capital.
Grant had inadvertentally straddled his large army across the North Anna river.
Lee saw the way to take advantage of his smaller numbers and punish the Federal II Corps, Grant’s best. He could throw 30000 men at the 24000 that were over the V in the river separating Grant’s two halves of his army. Hancock’s 24000 could not be reinforced, because of the V of the river, so he readied his assault.
On the afternoon of the 24th Lee fell violently sick with diarrhoea. He lay helplessly for hours while the opportunity to assault, before the Union commanders realised the sure situation were in.
The reason Lee’s defensive strike could not be undertaken was simple: the attrition of the last 19 days had robbed him of a subordinate able to manage it.
Time and opportunity passed. Grant and Hancock’s isolated Corps were extremely lucky.
We all know the loss of a quarter of Grant’s force would never have changed his resolve to “fight it all out, even if it takes all Summer”, but another battering would have diminished his potential to do so sooner.

I dont either, but they do make mistakes and government mistakes ruin lives.  For instance, you could be telling a joke to someone and end up on the federal no fly list!  Sure, you might get off again, but how long will that take and how much will it cost you?  All because you copied a joke that turned out to have been written by a terrorist…

Chrome has other issues, when you uninstall it, programs like Outlook stop working - or did last time I had Chrome on my computer which was a couple of years and one computer ago. (never installed it on the new one for that reason.)

Okay, so we have 1 vote that upgrade to ie 10 isnt as bad as some of the previous upgrades for ie have been.

That man needs to be electrocuted by puppies.

If you are wanting to defend your e mail or perhaps your bank account on-line, this dumbest password it is possible to use is usually … “password.” This really is as outlined by SplashData, a new California software firm you do, amongst other items, to offer a great app that aids a person manage your security passwords.   
The list is one among those ideas that’s entertaining to stick through, but protection men and women remind us all that we’re extra vulnerable on line than we like when you consider, and in some cases we allow the negative guys. Have a look, and in case you use one such, SplashData says it’s almost certainly best if you modify it.

We’ve witnessed such things as this just before; way back in June, a fresh That you are in a position to app developer branded Daniel Amitay identified that with the 15,000 possible number pass codes about the iPhone, there have been just 15 that represented Fifteen percent of every one of the codes your dog observed to be in use. Such as list above, it turned out predictable: 1234 has been the runaway director, followed by 0000, 2580 (the center order on any cellphone keypad), 1111, 5555 and so forth.   
SplashData provides standard suggestions: Do not always be so predictable.   
-Mix the characters within a code - use characters, numbers and unique characters.   
-Longer passwords are usually far better passwords. Look at eight characters or maybe more, maybe two words and phrases separated by the underscore or even a room.   
-Don’t use one password intended for almost everything. If somebody hackers your Facebook profile, your bank account might be future.   
To don’t forget them all, they are saying, a web based password manager may very well be practical. Or you might should really you favor a scrap of document inside your wallet.

Hi would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with? I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.                  P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
