Good Enough for the Founding Fathers

Marco Rubio and Hillary Clinton, in the last week, both announced they are running for president. One is the junior senator from Florida, and 43 years old. The other is the former secretary of state, and 67. Some worry that Rubio is too young, and some that Hillary is too old, to be president.
 
But the question of age is rather redundant. Republicans seem to forget that our beloved Reagan was 71 when he became president, and the Democrats beloved Kennedy was 43. It is the ideas, not the age, that matters. Both Rubio, and the Junior Senator from Texas, Ted Cruz, who is also running, would make better presidents at 40 than Hillary would at 80. Not because they are Republicans, there are a lot of Republicans who have no business being in office of any kind, but because, on the whole, their ideas are good.
 
Hillary has old ideas. The ones that have been tried before, and have failed before. So while she is not herself too old to be president, her ideas sure are.
 
Perhaps neither Cruz nor Rubio will be president, perhaps neither one of them is the best choice, but age should not be an issue in this race. Once you hit 35, the question of age should be nil. If you are old enough for the founding fathers, you should be old enough for us.
 
Below, in their announcements of Sunday and Monday respectively, are Hillary's video and Rubio's speech. Of course, words are not the only indicator, but when someone can't even get their rhetoric right, like Hillary, it become obvious they shouldn't be president.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Recently, when Rubio, who is about to turn 44 next month was asked if 43 is old enough to be president, he said he didn't know, but 44 sure is.

HL7V2.x to HL7V3.0 Translation Issues Details-2

In continuation of my previous post this post lists the other issues associated with HL7 v2.x to HL7v3 translation Conformance Patterns: The other major issue with the transformation of messages is the behavior of application when a particular information exchange takes place. In HL7V3.0 apart from the trigger events and interactions there exists the notion of application role as senders and receivers. The application role is characterized as the entire set of interactions for which the sender and receiver are responsible for transmitting. HL7V3.0 clearly defines the possible interactions and the application behavior associated these interactions in the form of responses for which the sender and receiver needs to adhere to. The differences in messages between V2.x and V3.0 and absence of clear guidance on V2.x regarding application behavior on receipt of message makes the transformation exercise more difficult. Vocabulary: It is a well known fact that 80% of HL7 V2.x message failu...

Hack WiFi Account From Phishing Attack With WifiPhisher

WiFi Phishing Attack With WifiPhisher Tool  Wifiphisher   is a security tool that mounts fast automated phishing attacks against WiFi networks in order to obtain secret passphrases and other credentials. It is a social engineering attack that unlike other methods it does not include any brute forcing. It is an easy way for obtaining credentials from captive portals and third party login pages or WPA/WPA2 secret passphrases. From the victim's perspective, the attack makes use in three phases: 1. Victim is being deauthenticated from her access point. Wifiphisher continuously jams all of the target access point's wifi devices within range by sending deauth packets to the client from the access point, to the access point from the client, and to the broadcast address as well. 2. Victim joins a rogue access point. Wifiphisher sniffs the area and copies the target access point's settings. It then creates a rogue wireless access point that is modeled on the target. It also sets up ...
