" On Monday, August 11, WHO is convening a panel discussion of medical ethicists, scientific experts and lay people from affected countries to assess the role of experimental therapies in the Ebola outbreak response. Issues to be considered include: • Whether it is ethical to use unregistered interventions with unknown adverse effects for possible treatment or prophylaxis. If it is, what criteria and conditions need to be satisfied before they can be used? • If it is ethical to use these unregistered interventions in the circumstances mentioned above, then what criteria should guide the choice of the intervention and who should receive priority for treatment or prevention?" http://www.who.int/csr/disease/ebola/ethics-panel-discussion/en/

Hi BTCRockk, Is there a way i can find out my luckycheckin ID? I cannot, for the life of me, find it anywhere on the website! Its very easy you can do this by your bitcoin address is this not working for you ? Hey MoneyGod, Thanks for your response. I was actually looking for my user ID on luckycheckin. Looks something like this: 3f58baaafc you can see this ID under the referral statistics for all the users who register using your ref link. Unfortunately, i cannot find my own user ID! You can find your ID at end of your reflink, for example if your link is http://luckycheckin.com/?r=f66c3208dc then your ID is f66c3208dc

By saying it is to costly they can basically put a price on human lives in my opinion. The prescription drug companies basically feel they can play god if it is fiscally good for their bottom line, it sickening.
In this case costly means difficult. Zmapp isn't a vaccine (with live or dead viruses) what will/should prevent ebola but a mix of antibodies to reinforce the immune system during an ongoing infection. Breeding viruses is easy. Making antibodies is much more difficult and time consuming, especially in the case of an experimental stuff without an established manufacturing process. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZMapp"ZMapp instead consists of antibodies that are made by exposing mice to a key Ebola protein and harvesting their antibodies. Those antibodies are then genetically modified to make them more like human antibodies and therefore less likely to provoke an immune reaction if injected into people." http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/07/business/an-obscure-biotech-firm-hurries-ebola-treatment.html

HD is pretty new but the hint to more RAM could be it...i only have 2GB RAM and i cant upgrade because my Mainboard only allows up to 2GB Maybe you still should check your hard disk for fragmentation: All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Disk Defragmenter -> Analyze Disk. If you need to defragment the disk you need to have at least 15 % free space left.

Fever can kill? Learn something new everyday.
It is a nasty virus with no cure. It causes vomiting, diarrhoea, rash, impaired kidney and liver function, bleeding and kills most of the patients. There is no licensed cure. However, some experimental developments exist and proven to be effective. In 2009, Drs. Feldmann and Geisbert were part of an international group of experts that recommended using the same post-exposure treatment strategy for the first time in a human. A researcher who accidentally was stuck with an Ebola-contaminated needle voluntarily received the experimental VSV Ebola vaccine 40 hours after the exposure. The researcher, who never showed signs of infection, survived. The scientists have not yet found a way to determine whether an Ebola infection occurred in this case, however, and whether the vaccine played a role in the outcome. Experimental treatments has been tested only with very small number of patients so nothing is proven yet. For example ZMapp: "The compound used to treat Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol was only formulated in January, according to Larry Zeitlin, PhD, president of Mapp Biopharmaceuticals, the California company that co-developed the drug. It has been tested in monkeys, but had never before been given to human patients before it was rushed to Brantly and Writebol." http://www.webmd.com/news/20140804/ebola-virus-vaccine

I almost never check this thread. But luckily another member tipped me off for the sig change, otherwise it probably would have been a few weeks before I notice the update. By being in this sig campaign, I guess there is an implied responsibility to constantly skim the thread I am sure that Stunna do not shoot you even if you forget to change your signature

Address list functionality was moved to File menu in version 0.9.0, so it exists in 0.8.6.
If you are going to downgrade please note that the ‘chainstate’ for version 0.9 is not always compatible with previous releases, so if you decide to switch back to a 0.8.x release you might get a blockchain validation error when starting the old release. You can fix the problem by running the old release with the -reindex option.

isnt that part of social engineering toolkit? i think that is one of the wonder of infectious media generator in SET that you can create The Infectious USB/CD/DVD module will create an autorun.inf file and a Metasploit payload. When the DVD/USB/CD is inserted, it will automatically run if autorun is enabled
No, much worse than that. They are modifying USB stick's firmware which makes malware impossibile to detect by any antivirus software.
