Q: WPF - Horizontal ScrollBar thumb width I'm trying to change the width of the thumb of a ScrollBar with horizontal orientation.
I have this ControlTemplate
    <ControlTemplate x:Key="HorizontalScrollBar" TargetType="{x:Type ScrollBar}">
        <Grid >
            <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <ColumnDefinition MaxWidth="100"/>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="0.00001*"/>
                <ColumnDefinition MaxWidth="100"/>
            </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <Border Grid.ColumnSpan="3" CornerRadius="2"  Background="#F0F0F0" />
            <RepeatButton Grid.Column="0" Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarLineButton}" Width="100" Command="ScrollBar.LineLeftCommand" Content="M 16 0 L 16 32 L 0 16 Z" />
            <Track Name="PART_Track" Grid.Column="1" IsDirectionReversed="False">
                <Track.DecreaseRepeatButton>
                    <RepeatButton Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarPageButton}" Command="ScrollBar.PageLeftCommand" Width="50"/>
                </Track.DecreaseRepeatButton>
                <Track.Thumb>
                    <Thumb Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarThumb}" Margin="0,1,0,1" Background="{StaticResource NormalBrush}" BorderBrush="{StaticResource NormalBorderBrush}" />
                </Track.Thumb>
                <Track.IncreaseRepeatButton>
                    <RepeatButton Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarPageButton}" Command="ScrollBar.PageRightCommand" />
                </Track.IncreaseRepeatButton>
            </Track>
            <RepeatButton Grid.Column="3" Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarLineButton}" Width="100" Command="ScrollBar.LineRightCommand" Content="M 0 0 L 16 16 L 0 32 Z"/>
        </Grid>
    </ControlTemplate>

And ScrollBarThumb is:
    <Style x:Key="ScrollBarThumb" TargetType="{x:Type Thumb}">
        <Setter Property="SnapsToDevicePixels" Value="True"/>
        <Setter Property="OverridesDefaultStyle" Value="true"/>
        <Setter Property="IsTabStop" Value="false"/>
        <Setter Property="Focusable" Value="false"/>
        <Setter Property="Template">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Thumb}">
                    <Border CornerRadius="2" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="1" />
                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>

The thumb now looks like this:

When I set Width="100" in the <Thumb Style="{StaticResource ScrollBarThumb}" ..., the thumb looks like it has been expanded, but as if something is hiding it:

Thanks.

A: Thanks to grek40, I found the answer.
Adding ViewportSize="NaN" to
<Track Name="PART_Track" Grid.Column="1" IsDirectionReversed="False">

shows the entire thumb and then setting its Width property had the desired effect.


We'd love your help. Let us know what's wrong with this preview of Dead Man's Cove by Lauren St. John.
Blue Peter award-winning mystery adventure from the author of THE WHITE GIRAFFE quartet.
'What I want,' Laura declared is to have a life packed with excitement like some of the characters in my books.' And Laura Marlin's favourite character is ace-detective Matt Walker. When she is sent to live with an uncle in St Ives, Cornwall, she's convinced that a life of adventure is Blue Peter award-winning mystery adventure from the author of THE WHITE GIRAFFE quartet.

When she is sent to live with an uncle in St Ives, Cornwall, she's convinced that a life of adventure is hers at last. But everywhere she turns she's confronted with mysteries. Nothing is what it seems.
Is Tariq, the shopkeeper's silent son, a friend or an enemy? Why does her uncle seem so intent on erasing his own past? And why is everyone so afraid of Dead Man's Cove?

I'm going to be terribly unprofessional here for a moment so please do humour me.
Oh, this will never do. Okay, I'll have to do my best to restore some sort of professional overtones to this review.
Wait, it's not improving is it.
THIS BOOK IS BRILLIANT. It's the Famous Five meets Nancy Drew. It has the wonderful Laura Marl I'm going to be terribly unprofessional here for a moment so please do humour me.
THIS BOOK IS BRILLIANT. It's the Famous Five meets Nancy Drew. It has the wonderful Laura Marlin - bright, brilliant heroine that she is - and she's a delight to read. It has a shady uncle. An even shadier housekeeper. And it feels like sunshine and coconut fudge and fry-ups at the seaside cafe.
It's a charming little detective story, without being cutesy. There's real threat and real danger, and serious issues explored within the narrative. Laura is a great character – very relatable, and admirable. She's independent, intelligent, brave and loyal, but she has her flaws too, making her rounded and believable.
The progression of the mystery – starting with Laura trying to figure out her uncle, escalating to the grand plot behind everything gives the reader a nice sense of immersion into the story. The suspense and fear builds throughout the book slowly, leaving you on tenterhooks as the closing chapters approach.
Of course, we can't ignore the fact that this is a children's book – and with a main character aged 11, it is probably targetting 8-10 year olds as its main audience. One of the best things about Dead Man's Cove is it manages to do everything I've mentioned above, keeping the prose simple enough for an 8 year old, yet without being condescending. I can't say exactly what issues are being dealt with within the book without giving too much of the story away, but they are serious and complicated issues. Dead Man's Cove challenges its audience, confronts them with some of the stark realities of the world, and it's all the better for it.
A great mystery and a lovely, determined heroine. A real treat!
An orphaned girl with a big love for detectives finds herself thrown into mystery when she moves in to live with her uncle.
I bought this one during my vacation in 2018, so almost 6 months ago, but never was in the mood to read this one. Oh boy, past me, why why? Because as soon as I started this one I was totally in the story. I wanted to read on and on and on.
Meet Laura, an orphaned girl with a bit of a case of pickiness. She has had so many chances with new families and none of them worked. A An orphaned girl with a big love for detectives finds herself thrown into mystery when she moves in to live with her uncle.
Meet Laura, an orphaned girl with a bit of a case of pickiness. She has had so many chances with new families and none of them worked. And while I understand a new family is scary, she has to be a bit less picky about things. And then when she is with her uncle she has all the freedom, and I was just kind of eh about that. Because she kept reminding us, the reader, HOW MUCH SHE loved the freedom and how the other families didn't trust her that much. Um, um, sorry, but it is quite normal that a 11/12 year old doesn't have the full free rein of anything they want. I am sorry, but it is normal to have bedtimes. To have to eat healthy. To get up at a normal time. To listen to their caretakers. To not just go outside without letting people know.
But aside that I did love Laura and how smart she was, and that she had a dream, to become a detective. And that she didn't let anything stand between her and that dream. Plus, I just love a girl who loves books and reading.
Tariq? I loved that guy, though I did feel sorry for what was happening to him. As for what was going on with him? It took me a bit longer to find out all the details, sure, I had some suspicions but I hadn't expected the story to take that turn.
The town of Cornwall? It was quite a lovely place, going by the descriptions. Quiet, small, it has a beach (I would love to live near the beach), there are all kind of fun shops and foodplaces. And then there are the mysterious things that are going on in the town. I was highly curious about Deadman's Cove.
The ending, oh boy, the story was already fast-paced, but with this we totally sped up. The last part of the book was one that had me totally immersed in the book, I just had to know if Tariq and Laura would be all right.
I loved that each new chapter had an illustration to accompany it. The style was very nicely done.
All in all, a fantastic book, and yes, I agree with the review on my cover. I am a fan of Enid Blyton and I was delighted by this book, as it did remind me quite a bit of Enid Blyton's stories. I would recommend this one, and I will be looking around to see if I can buy the next book in this series. Let's see what Laura's next adventures will be.
1. I decided to read this book because a family member recommended it to me and said that it was very good. I also liked the themes of the book.
2. A character I found interesting was Mr. Calvin Redfern who was the uncle of Laura Marlin. In the story he was described as a "disheveled one-eyed tyrant who arrived into town in the dead of night", and I thought what this means was that nobody knew him well and that he just appeared from somewhere one day.

Later on, in the story he is revealed to be a detective that moved into town because of a tragic accident but is being followed by a gang who wants to seek revenge. I thought he was interesting because in the beginning he looked like a normal person who might have had a very bad past and moved in to start a new life but then it turns out that he is actually a detective undercover and solving a mystery. I also think that his character is very important in the story.
3.	My favourite quote from the book was the description of Mr. Calvin Redfern: "The ink-black figure of a man stood framed against the yellow light with a wolfhound at his side. The slope of his shoulders and knots of muscles in his forearm as he gripped the creatures collar, spoke of an immense power, carefully restrained." I thought this quote was quite interesting because of the powerful descriptive language that was used to describe him like; the 'ink-black figure' makes him sound sinister and intimidating. Also the description of his physical appearance makes us think that he is probably a bad person who has power and can do anything he want when he is really not like that.
A truly outstanding, totally enthralling mystery set in Cornwall, England, this is one of the very best children's mysteries I've ever read.

After she arrives in St. Ives, where her uncle lives, she finds all sorts of mysteries that call out to her to be solved: What is her uncle's real occupation? Why does he forbid her to go to Dead Man's Cove? Why has the silent boy Tariq, who lives with an Indian couple who run a grocery store, suddenly rejected her friendship? Who has been leaving her messages in a bottle? These are only a few of the puzzles that Laura's curiosity won't let her leave unsolved.
There's plenty of adventure here, plus a twisty plot, quirky, believable characters, and a satisfying, surprising ending. One of my favorite characters is a lovable, brave three-legged Siberian husky who becomes Laura's soul mate. It's a wonderful tale that will appeal not only to kids, but also to grown-ups, even those who don't usually read children's books.
Just finished this and I loved it. Great mystery, good characters and the setting was magical.
Dead Man's Cove was the first book chosen for my monthly book club. I had been wanting to read it for a while because it sounded like a perfect middle grade adventure and mystery in the vein of Enid Blyton, plus the cover is stunning! Dead Man's Cove is the first story in the Laura Marlin Mysteries series, following 11-year-old Laura as she works on becoming an ace detective, inspired by her favourite fictional detective Matt Walker. Laura is living in Sylvan Meadow's Children's Home when she is Dead Man's Cove was the first book chosen for my monthly book club.

Dead Man's Cove is the first story in the Laura Marlin Mysteries series, following 11-year-old Laura as she works on becoming an ace detective, inspired by her favourite fictional detective Matt Walker. Laura is living in Sylvan Meadow's Children's Home when she is discovered by her uncle, Calvin Redfern, and taken to live in St Ives, Cornwall, where her detective skills are about to be put to use.
Middle grade mysteries are among my favourite books to read because they're so much fun and Dead Man's Cove certainly isn't short of mysteries to figure out. Why is the cove so dangerous? Is Tariq, the shopkeeper's quiet son, who he appears to be? Why is the housekeeper, Mrs Webb, so mean? Does her uncle really work in the fisheries? And what does Laura have to do to find her place in St Ives? Dead Man's Cove was (to my delight!) much more complicated and darker than expected, but it also leaves you nostalgic for a childhood you (likely) never had, full of breakfast by the sea, accompanied by a loyal Siberian Husky named Skye, roaming sand the 'colour of a Labrador puppy'. It made me miss living by the sea while I was at university, waking up to seagulls every morning.
It's not just the mystery that is so wonderful, but also the colourful, vivid and distinct characters. You'll have an opinion on all of them, especially Laura Marlin herself, who is an incredibly passionate, intelligent and brave young girl. Luckily, her uncle Calvin knows she's responsible and gives Laura the space to explore, although he's not so sure that she should be rushing to pick her career so quickly... Mrs Crabtree, Laura's nosy neighbour is hilarious and a brilliant addition to the story, and Mr. Mukhtar, Tariq's father, is suspicious and untrustworthy. But when you're just an 11-year-old, it's difficult to get people to believe you.
Dead Man's Cove is a delightful, nostalgic mystery that'll make you remember the time you pretended to be Harriet the Spy, trying to figure out the puzzle in front of you, and in this modern children's detective story, you'll join Laura as she tries to find a place in her new home. I've already read the World Book Day short story, The Midnight Picnic, and can't wait to start the second book, Kidnap in the Caribbean. Just wonderful!
Even though this book was meant for a younger audience, I enjoyed it. It made me really nostalgic of when I was younger, and I wanted to be a detective. Even though that's no longer my ambition, I could still relate to the main character nonetheless.

I really liked the way that St John wrote the novel. It flowed really well; nothing was too awkward about it. I also found it was really easy to read for younger audiences, without making it too young sounding. Each character definitely had their own manner of speaking throughout the entire story that made it easy to know who was speaking at different parts. This book dealt with a lot of things like abuse, slavery, gangs, and poverty-causing debt. All of the subjects, I thought, were kind of mature for a book written for ten-year-olds, but it was written in a very tasteful fashion meant for a younger audience.
The whole plot was really good and the ending was really well done. I won't spoil it (it being a mystery book and all) but all of the loose ends were tied. I didn't figure out the mystery before the end of the book, which was really nice because that can be really annoying. All of the clues did actually connect to the mystery. I can't really say much about what the plot is, but it really is an exciting adventure from start to finish.
This book did take me a bit to read even though it's only 201 pages. I think the reason for that is because I just haven't really been into reading lately. Besides that, I think it would be a fairly short read. Some of the secondary characters were a bit flat, but I think that if the author had expanded on them it would be longer book that probably most ten-year-olds wouldn't want to read. Other than that, this book was well done.
If I'd have read Kat Wolfe Investigates after reading this, instead of the other way around, I think I might have felt a little cheated. They are similar in a lot of ways, and while Kat Wolfe feels a lot like a more current and updated version of Laura Marlin, it left me feeling this book was a little left behind and forgotten, but I think I enjoyed it more than Kat Wolfe.

Laura's an orphan who has spent most o her life in a children's home, dreaming of long-lost relatives coming to find her. When an uncle suddenly does come to claim her and bring her to live with him in his seaside home in a small Cornish town, Laura is excited to begin her new life. But while her uncle is kind and gives her plenty of things she's never had in her life (including a doggo friend), he's not so generous with his time, always busy with some vague assignments and working at strange hours. Laura also can't work out if the shopkeeper's boy actually wants to be friends with her or not, and there's lots of suspicious and worrying things happening with him and his family, which of course Laura must investigate.
11 year old Laura is an orphan. Her father, an American soldier, disappeared long before she was born, and her mother died during childbirth. All her life, Laura has lived at the Sylvan Meadow's Children Home. Always hoping and dreaming of finding a home where she can stay longer than half a day because she is fussy.

Her uncle, Calvin Redfern is a very intriguing character. Whenever he's around, you get the sense that there's something hidden about him. - secrets.
Laura has always wanted to be a detective. Her idol being Matt Walker, a character in a series of books. And soon, mysteries begin to surround her in St Ives. What are the Mukthars hiding? Who is J? And what is her uncle hiding.
The book reminded me very much of the Famous Five books I enjoyed as a child but brought right up to date and given a social conscience. The book touches on some serious issues, such as the human slavery trade, illegal immigation and child abuse, but in a very child-friendly way. I love the strong female character who would give any of her male counterparts a run for their money, and the supporting cast of characters add some humorous moments.

Even as a grown-up, I found it well written and exciting, so I'll definitely be looking out for the other books in the series, to read myself before passing them on to Sophie and Juliette. The book was given the impressive title of Blue Peter Book of the Year 2011, so I'm not the only one to be won over. I'd say it is suited to readers of both sexes, aged around 8-12.
This book is phenomenal, no joke! I read this in 1day.
It follows a girl called laura marlin, who lived in a children's home, because her mother died and her father was unknown to her and fellow people. Laura is then told that she has a long lost uncle who has offered to adopt her, and lives in st Ives. Laura's uncle, Calvin redfern is a mysterious character at first but toward the end of the book he is possibly one of my favourite characters.
This book is a mystery and quite funny at times also This book is phenomenal, no joke! I read this in 1day.
This book is a mystery and quite funny at times also scary. I loved Skye (if u have read it u will know who the little guy is) he made the story better. My overall favourite character is laura, if u read it u will understand why I like her!
This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. A brilliant, gripping children's adventure story. Feels like a better version of the Famous Five. My only gripe is the use of home education as a cover for child slavery, but it does make a useful plot device.
I LOVE this book!!!!! It's soooooo good!!!!! I'm going to Cornwall in the summer and my sister and I (who also loves this book) are going to see Dead Man's Coves together, and go to 28 Ocean View Terrace because we love it so much!
I really enjoyed this. It was lent to me by one of the kids in my class who thought I would like it since I enjoy The Famous Five. He was right! I really enjoyed this. Loved the characters and the tale kept me guessing.
I read this book 3 years ago and it was really good, the plot was amazing and the characters were realistic but imaginative .I would recommend this to anyone who likes mystery books.
LOVE THIS BOOK! If you are a fan of Enid Blyton, you will like this book!
This book is the first in St. John's Laura Marlin series of detective novels, and I get the feeling it's aimed at older children, maybe around the age of 11 or 12.

Unfortunately, I found it hard to get into it, although I did at least power through the pages pretty quickly, and I appreciate that I'm not necessarily the target audience here. Loosely speaking, it follows the story of an orphan called Laura who leaves foster care to go and live with a long lost uncle, and who stumbles upon a mystery or two while she's out there.
Okay, so four out of five because it was a tiny bit predictable, however a really good read for someone who wants something like Enid Blyton Famous Five/Secret Seven but a bit more up to date.
Dan Jon (10, nearly 11) loved the book but again finds that he is at least five steps ahead of Laura.

"Laura Marlin, ein 11jähriges Waisenkind, erfährt eines Tages, dass sie scheinbar noch einen Onkel hat, welcher sie bei sich aufnehmen wird. So muss sie ihr Heim verlassen und zieht zu ihrem Onkel, Calvin Redfern, welcher in einer kleinen Küstenstadt in Cornwall lebt. Von Anfang an hat sie das Gefühl, dass ihr Onkel etwas verheimlicht. Aber was? Warum verbietet er ihr, zur Todesbucht zu gehen? Was hat ihr neuer Freund Tariq damit zu tun? Laura will der Sache auf den Grund gehen und befindet sich schon bald in ihrem ersten Kriminalfall."
"Sie sah aus wie eine Bollywood-Diva - allerdings eine, die die meiste Zeit auf dem Filmset im Catering-Trailer verbrachte"
Alleine die Gestaltung ist der Hammer! Auf dem ersten Blick hat mir das Cover gar nicht so zugesagt. Tut es auch jetzt noch nicht. Aber: im Inneren des Buches erwartet den Leser zu jedem Kapitel eine kleine Zeichnung, welche eine Szene aus dem Kapitel zeigt. Das ist SO SO schön und so liebevoll gemacht, dass da mein Herz echt aufgegangen ist.
Mit Laura Marlin hat die Autorin einen Charakter geschaffen, welcher perfekt zu ihr und der Geschichte passt. Sie ist ein neugieriges, aufrichtiges Mädchen, welches an ihren Werten festhält und ihre Meinung vertritt. Trotzdem merkt man ihr das Alter an, was ich bei solch einem Buch sehr schätze. Fans der Fünf Freunde werden es lieben - sie hat mich immer, auf eine positive Art und Weise, an Georg erinnert.
Die Geschichte war richtig Spannend. Natürlich ohne Gewalt und Blut und genau richtig für die jungen Leser. Was nicht heißt, dass das Buch nichts für ältere Leseratten ist. Durch die angenehme Art, die Geschehnisse zu erzählen ist dieses Buch ein Lesegenuss für Jung und Alt. Dazu kommt noch eine gute Prise Humor und ein paar wunderschöne Zitate, welche das Buch so liebenswürdig machen.
Lauren St John ist auf einer Farm in Simbabwe, Afrika aufgewachsen. Eine Giraffe, zwei Warzenschweine und eine Horde Affen gehörten zu den Haustieren. Heute lebt sie in London mit ihrem Bengalkater Max.

This book is about a girl named Laura, she is an orphan that wanted action in her life. The story takes place when the social services discover that she has an uncle. She will go live with her uncle. One day she will find a message in a bottle and will go in an exciting adventure to discover the mystery behind the dead man 19s cove, but some villains will get in her way.
This book was very interesting, except some parts weren't very clear.This story made me feel excited because there was always action in the book. I really felt the girl 19s feeling when she felt lonely. Some parts of the story are funny when she thinks of how adults are not as smart as they think they are. This book made me think of the number of books that I 19ve read about orphan girls. My favorite part of the book was when Laura first arrived in her uncles house. I liked the book because the story shows how hard being an orphan can be and it made me think of some orphans in the world could have a very hard time. I would recomend this book to people that like adventure books. I think that students could start reading thi book at nine years old. My rating out of ten for this book is 8.

A: You need to place your axios inside a function and call it inside useEffect. So this way it will only call axios once.
Make sure to import useEffect in the top level.
const callApi = () => {
   axios
      .get('firebasedatabase.json')
      .then(response => {
         const fetchedRequests = [];
         for (let key in response.data) {
            fetchedRequests.push({
               ...response.data[key],
               key: key,
            });
         }
         setRequests(fetchedRequests);
      })
      .catch(error => console.log(error));
   console.log(Requests, 'requests');
};

useEffect(() => {
   callApi();
}, []);

Because a component gets re-rendered every time there is a change. In your case when you call Axios and you are setting the state which requires react to re-render. So when it re-renders the component, the Axios gets called again and again.

Q: Resource role in oracle What is the difference between granting such roles as CREATE TABLE, CREATE TRIGGER, CREATE PROCEDURE to user directly and via the role resource. Is it good to grant these role via resource or directly to the user schema?

A: The RESOURCE role almost certainly contains more privileges than you actually want to grant a user and it probably doesn't include a number of privileges that you do want to grant.  So you would generally never grant users the RESOURCE role in a production system.  Instead, you'd create roles appropriate to your environment (i.e. a DEVELOPER_ROLE, an ANALYST_ROLE, etc.), grant appropriate privileges to those roles, and then grant those roles to the appropriate users.
The only time that it matters whether a privilege has been granted directly to a user or via a role is if the user is trying to exercise the privilege through a stored procedure.  If I've been granted the CREATE TABLE privilege through a role, I can create all the tables I want interactively.  But if I try to write a stored procedure that creates a table using dynamic SQL, I'll get an error.  Since you never want developers creating objects at runtime, however, this isn't generally a problem.  If you really wanted to allow this, however, you'd have to grant the owner of the procedure the CREATE TABLE privilege directly.

Microsoft Uses US Courts to Disrupt Chinese Hackers
by John Lister on December, 13 2021 at 01:12PM EST
Microsoft has taken control of websites - or rather their domain names - believed to be uses by Chinese hackers. It's the latest example of a tactic that overcomes the usual problems of dealing with an international online threat. According to ... Microsoft, the "Nickel" group is based in China and is a "nation-state actor": in other words, it at the very least has the backing of the Chinese government. It uses a variety of tactics to try to spy on victims and intercept their data. Targets include government agencies and human rights groups. Microsoft somewhat understatedly says there's "often a ...

Red Light Domain Gets Go Ahead
by John Lister on March, 28 2011 at 08:03AM EDT
The organization that oversees the distribution of Internet domain names has given final approval to ".xxx", a domain dedicated to adult subject matter. The new domain is known as a generic top-level domain, meaning it is the final part of a website ... address and isn't country-specific (like .ca for Canada and). This is the first new top-level domain since 2004's .pro for professionals. It could be the last to get specific approval, as there are plans to open up the system so that individuals and organizations can register and control their own top level domains using any word or ...

Man Challenges 250,000 Strong Botnet and Succeeds
by Carlo Orlando on December, 28 2009 at 08:12AM EST
When security officials decide to "go after" computer malware, most conduct their actions from a defensive standpoint. For most of us, finding a way to rid a computer of the malware suffices -- but for one computer researcher, however, the change ... from a defensive to an offensive mentality is what ended the two year chase of a sinister botnet once and for all. For two years, Atif Mushtaq had been keeping the notorious Mega-D bot malware from infecting computer networks. As of this past November, Mega-D had forced more than 250,000 PCs to do its bidding via botnet control. That's when Mushtaq ... (view more)
New Domain Names To Have Non-English Characters
by John Lister on October, 28 2009 at 08:10AM EDT
The body that controls the way website addresses work plans to allow non-English characters to be used in domain names. The move follows increasing demand for the change, thanks to the rapid growth of Internet use in largely non-English-speaking ... countries, like China. At the moment, the only characters allowed in domain names are those in the Latin alphabet; that is to say, those used in languages such as English, French and German. Those who use languages based on other alphabets, such as Russian or Chinese, must use special software that lets them type on keyboards (with their own alphabets ... (view more)
Domain Cybersquatting On The Rise, Report Suggests
by John Lister on March, 9 2009 at 08:03AM EDT
A brand specialist says more and more web domain names are being registered solely to cash in on existing firms' business. The report from MarkMonitor examines five types of 'abuse' related to domain names of varying legality. The biggest problem, ... which is also the fastest growing, is cybersquatting: buying up a domain name that is the same as an existing business with the intention of selling it back to a firm at a profit. According to the report, that problem affected almost 450,000 domain names during the last quarter of 2008, up 18% on the previous year. Approximately 80% of the sites ... (view more)
Domain of Domains Broadening Horizons
by Kurt D. Lynn on July, 17 2008 at 08:07AM EDT
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers has decided to radically expand the choices of domain names that can be assigned. Two new proposals to the regulatory group were recently considered: a) allowing non-Latin characters (e.g. ... Russian, Chinese, Arabic, etc.) and b) domains that consist of any letter or number combination up to 64 characters in length. (Source: cbc.ca ) The proposal to consider non-Latin characters will be tested before final approval. The proposal to open up domain names was approved. The change was initiated by concerns that all the meaningful domain names ... (view more)
McAfee Survey Reveals Dodgiest Domains
by John Lister on June, 10 2008 at 08:06AM EDT
A security firm claims Hong Kong is home to the Internet's biggest security holes, with 19% of sites using the .hk domain posing a security risk. The country has rocketed up (or down, depending on your perspective) the charts, having been ranked ... just 28th-most-risky last year. Second place in this year's study, which looks at 74 domains, went to China, which was 12th last year. Other countries which performed poorly included Romania, Russia, and the Philippines. Finland was ranked the safest, followed by Japan and Norway. The survey also looked at the generic domains (such as .com) which aren ... (view more)

Types Of Medical Imaging (All Explained)
Robert Malcolm
If you're thinking of a career in medical imaging or you simply want to understand more about it, then here's a quick guide that covers what medical imaging is and the most common medical imaging types.
A Definition of Medical Imaging
Medical imaging offers a range of high-tech tests that enable surgeons, doctors and other medical professionals to gain a better understanding of the condition of a patient. Imaging allows specialists to see what's going on inside the body without the need for invasive surgery merely to investigate.
Some of the things medical imaging can highlight and reveal include broken bones, illness, inflammation of organ tissue, monitoring the development of an unborn child and more.
Let's now take a look at the different types of medical imagery for clarification.
Although it seems like a more recent medical imaging procedure, ultrasound technology has actually been used since 1956 and was first used in Glasgow in Scotland. Since those early days of the prototype, ultrasound technology has advanced enormously.
With the application of a special gel, a probe is used to examine specific parts of the body. Images then appear on a screen as the probe is moved around and the ultrasounds penetrate the tissue. It's a totally non-invasive procedure that is most often used to monitor the health and development of unborn children and pregnant mothers.
The MRI Scan
MRI stands for "magnetic resonance imaging". The good news about MRI scans is no radiation is used in the process. Instead, detailed internal images are produced by combining radio waves with a strong magnetic field.
MRI scans can produce detailed images of both soft tissue and organs, as well as the examination of bones and joints. In fact, MRI scanning is most successful when used to diagnose an injury to a joint or bone structure. Even ligaments can be examined with a MRI scan.
While MRI scanning is both painless and non-invasive, scanning can take up to one hour to complete. However, the results are a clear picture of the problem area.
X-rays are the best known and also the oldest form of medical imaging today. Since the inception of X-ray technology in 1895, it has been used to successfully examine things like brain tumours, broken bones, joint injuries and other areas of dense matter.
Even today, the X-ray is the procedure of choice when it comes to obtaining images of broken bones or other issues that are related to bone structure and joints. If a child swallows a foreign object, X-rays are also employed to locate that object.
Although X-rays do use radiation to create the internal image, these radiation doses are very small and would only prove harmful if a patient were to undergo numerous X-rays during their lifetime.
A CT scan is a computed tomography scan. This technology has been around for some time and is predominantly used to diagnose issues in areas such as organs, blood vessels, bone structure and more.
The procedure uses a series of X-rays to create a more detailed picture than what a standard X-ray can give. While CT scanning does use radiation, CT scans allow medical professionals to more accurately diagnose a condition or a problem and devise a solution.
PET Scans
A PET scan, or "positron emission tomography scan", is generally painless. It's more invasive than other medical imaging procedures though, as it involves injecting the patient with a radioactive tracer. These tracers may also be inhaled or ingested. The scans produce detailed images of both bones and organs.
Finding Medical Imaging Jobs In Australia
For people who are either training for job roles in the medical profession, or you're already qualified in medical imaging, one of the best ways to find work is to enlist the help of a specialist medical recruitment agency.
You can find specialist recruitment agencies by searching online, either Australia-wide or in your area. Try search terms like:
