I am known to many of my peers as the mad scientist. Ask me any question and I will guarantee you an answer. I specialize in any and all areas of expertise, including breakdowns and analysis of horribly composed CarDomain pages (feel free to search "SKANKA" and you will find your answer). Networking is what makes the world go 'round, and people helping people is powerful stuff. The more we learn, the better the world becomes, and the closer we can get to turning at least one state in the union into a test track with an unlimited tire and gasoline supply.

(Please, to some extent, attempt to remain work safe... )

GO.

Naturally, I predicted that this would be the very first question asked.

Main Entry: 1life Pronunciation: \ˈlīf\Function: noun Inflected Form(s): plural lives \ˈlīvz\Etymology: Middle English lif, from Old English līf; akin to Old English libban to live — more at liveDate: before 12th century1 a : the quality that distinguishes a vital and functional being from a dead body b : a principle or force that is considered to underlie the distinctive quality of animate beings c : an organismic state characterized by capacity for metabolism, growth, reaction to stimuli, and reproduction2 a : the sequence of physical and mental experiences that make up the existence of an individual b : one or more aspects of the process of living <sex life of the frog>3 : biography 14 : spiritual existence transcending physical death5 a : the period from birth to death b : a specific phase of earthly existence <adult life> c : the period from an event until death <a judge appointed for life> d : a sentence of imprisonment for the remainder of a convict's life6 : a way or manner of living7 : livelihood8 : a vital or living being; specifically : person <many lives were lost in the disaster>9 : an animating and shaping force or principle 10 : spirit, animation <saw no life in her dancing> 11 : the form or pattern of something existing in reality <painted from life> 12 : the period of duration, usefulness, or popularity of something <the expected life of the batteries> 13 : the period of existence (as of a subatomic particle) — compare half-life 14 : a property (as resilience or elasticity) of an inanimate substance or object resembling the animate quality of a living being 15 : living beings (as of a particular kind or environment) <forest life> 16 a : human activities b : animate activity and movement <stirrings of life> c : the activities of a given sphere, area, or time <the political life of the country> 17 : one providing interest and vigor <life of the party> 18 : an opportunity for continued viability <gave the patient a new life> 19 capitalized Christian Science : god 1b20 : something resembling animate life <a grant saved the project's life>

There are very different meanings that you could be in search of due to the fact that the meaning of life is based very much upon religious beliefs or a point of view that narrows itself strictly to a scientific outlook. Feel free to clarify which meaning of life you are looking for and get back to me.

you can pinch yourself, but that doesn't mean you are real....its just a reaction to a touch, or so you think.

If you're a firm believer in the big bang theory and/or the fact that all beings came from a big puddle of goo, then naturally the chicken would indeed come first, then producing the eggs in order to further the existence of its species.

If you're of Christian beliefs... obviously the egg came first. Why? Because God hit a two-fer making the eggs first so that we could have a balanced breakfast with chicken and/or omelettes.

Q: Is my car really black ?
A: By Nissan's definition of black... no. It is SUPER BLACK. By science's definition of Black, definitely not as it is simply coated in a material that absorbs 99% of the colors of the spectrum and reflects only one.

And by the definition of political correctness, it is not black. It is African American.

What is the Matrix? You should have eaten the blue pill, Morpheus.

You can ask yourself this question, but the one true way to fully understand and absorb the answer to it is this - get punched in the face. That siht feels pretty real.

Some people say God is the answer. Others say Barack Obama is the answer.

The rest prefer either Xanax or alcoholic beverages.

But the real answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything? Google.

Not all people who have dark toned skin are African American - this is wrong and potential derogatory towards people who come from the Dominican Republic, Haiti, etc...

You shouldn't make an assumption, and if you so need to refer to someone in this manner, you should obtain their opinion as to how they should be called before doing so.

I have a question....

What is the best way to physically and logically separate a multiple networks using OC3 circuits while maintaining security parameters with Encryption, VLANs and Firewalls? A well thought out and explained answer would be much appreciated along with a high level network topology will suffice.

Oh and Thanks in advance

I seem to recall something about assumptions earlier.

Tell you what Dangeris. Since I'm getting a vibe that you already know the answer to your own question, I'll answer that question for a trade, in order to prove this process mutually beneficial, since it's now become obvious to me that we're both working professionals for the DoD.

Say, for example, you have a program with a feature (known henceforth as "the backup service") that is designed to backup information to an external source (in this case, the external source is irrelevant.) The program is designed to create SEVERAL (and I capitalized that because SEVERAL = @$$load) XML files, put them into a zip file, and then ship them off. For some inexplicable reason, the program's backup service just stops working. The user has tried workarounds such as wiping the machine and reimaging it, which have only worked temporarily. The program works like a champ for a few backup cycles, and then reverts back to the failed state where the backup service just stops. What is causing the backup service to stop?

I wouldn't ask you how to implement a fix for this for several reasons, one of which being because I wouldn't want to bore you with something I do everyday.

ROFL and I did not google that.
