Drill here, drill now...

American Solutions' Dave Ryan presented a petition with the signatures of 1.3 Million American voters today to the Republican Congressional leadership.

The petition demands Congress take action now to Drill Here, Drill Now and tap our American petroleum resources. This is too important an issue to stand-by and let Congress do nothing.

And they will do nothing if the voters don't act. Americans are now struggling under the burden of high petroleum prices brought on by legislators who have done nothing to prepare for this crisis since the last time oil prices shot up in the 1970's.

We do have a few leaders, statesmen, in Washington who will take the lead, but the majority party will continue to point fingers and blame all the way to the fall elections. All the while the American people will be the ones struggling under these high prices while our congressmen and senators drive around in luxury paid for by our tax dollars.

We need to tell them to act now, not out of politics but because as our representatives they are required to act in our, the voters interests. Not in the interests of the environmental cartels that have ruled the liberal agenda in Washington for so many decades.

If you have yet to sign the petition, do so. It's not too late to let your voice be heard.

Big flaw in the internet

Quick note, there is a major flaw in the servers that make web surfing possible. With out getting into the geek stuff, it's so dangerous that the flaw was kept quiet until the major software companies were able to craft a patch.

The security community is up in arms because this bypassed the normal protocol of peer review, but those brought into the circle have confirmed the veracity of the methodology of Dan Kaminiski, web DNS guru, on this one.


If you want more information, view the video on this page and go to his site, doxpara Research, where you can test your DNS to see if it's vulnerable.

Look for the utility in the upper right corner of the page. Most importantly, be sure you keep your computer up to date with security patches. Make sure Microsoft Updates is set to check and download new updates and make sure you install them.

Microsoft isn't perfect and rarely an update will cause an unintended problem, but it's better to deal with that than have your computer dangerously vulnerable.

If you want to verify the security of your other software, visit Secunia and run their software scanner. If you have outdated software on your computer you will be alerted and provided a link to the latest versions.

Secunia doesn't check all your software, just the majors. But that's better than nothing, right? Now get to it!!
