1 Citation Most people think about backing up data about 10 minutes after it's too late to do any good. If you realize that you really need a good backup program after your hard disk crashes or your teenager decides to clear out some of your files to make room for new music downloads, you're setting yourself up for a data disaster. Are you prepared to lose your e-mail address book (and all your messages)? What would you do if your entire collection of digital photos disappeared tomorrow in a puff of electrons? Do you have backup copies of your electronically-filed tax return or your crucial correspondence?
Fortunately, backing up your essential files is neither difficult nor time-consuming. In fact, the whole process can take as little as 10 minutes a week, and you can let Windows XP do most of the work., blogmarks.net

Mastering Oracle Python, Part 1: Querying Best Practices 1 Citation Among the core principles of Python's way of doing things there is a rule about having high-level interfaces to APIs. The Database API (in this case the Oracle API) is one example. Using the cx_Oracle Python module from Computronix, you can take command over the Oracle query model while maintaining compatibility with Python Database API Specification v2.0.
The model of querying databases using DB API 2.0 remains consistent for all client libraries conforming to the specification. On top of this, Anthony Tuininga, the principal developer of cx_Oracle, has added a wide set of properties and methods that expose Oracle-specific features to developers. It is absolutely possible to use only the standard methods and forget about the "extra" ones, but in this installment you won't be doing that. The concept of universal database wrappers might work in some cases but at the same time, you lose all the optimizations that the RDBMS offers., blogmarks.net

1 Citation How does one profit in Forex Stock Trading?
Very simple and obvious: buy cheap and sell for more! The profit is generated from the fluctuations (changes) in the currency exchange market.
The nice thing about the FOREX market, is that regular daily fluctuations, say - around 1%, are multiplied by 100! (in general, Easy-Forex? offers trading ratios from 1:50 to 1:200). If, for example, the exchange rate of "your" pair of currencies increased by 0.6% in the last 4 hours, your profit will be 60% on your investment! Such can happen in one business day, or in a few hours, even minutes.
Moreover, you cannot lose more than your "margin"! You may profit unlimited amounts, but you never lose more than what you initially risked and invested.
You can implement your choice (the pair of currencies, the volume amount) under any direction to which the market is moving, and yet make profit. It does not matter whether the exchange rate is going up or down: you can always decide to buy Euro and sell dollar, or vice versa - buy dollar and sell Euro. You don't have to physically possess certain currencies in order to perform "buy" or "sell" with them., blogmarks.net

1 Citation Security-Freak.net is an attempt to lower the entry barrier for starting computer security research. During my interactions with security enthusiasts in general and students in particular, i have noticed that many lose interest because of the lack of organized learning resources in this area. This is not to undermine the sheer volume of tutorials written on various security related topics such as raw sockets, packet injection etc. But for most beginners it is very difficult to assimilate these voluminous documents at one go. This realization made me start Security-Freak.net ., blogmarks.net
