Cap crunch whistle phone7/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Now on Saving Captain Crunch, Draper announced that he wants to say thank you to each of the good-hearted folks who donated. That's right, generous people came through for Draper and the $10,000 was raised. ![]() John Draper: I was told 6 months.but (yay) I had my surgery on 21st of Dec, and my hands are healing, but they are still somewhat painful, but I'm typing with my fingers now instead of using MacSpeech Dictate. ![]() How soon do the surgeons advise that you must have your surgery before the nerves wither, making the use of your hands, and coding, impossible? John Draper: Wozniak - Job's was not interested in hacking at all. Who was the better student in phone phreaking skills, Steve Jobs or Steve Wozniak? John Draper: Yes - that's why I made sure all my info gets out in the open. Please be looking for this article to show up here.Did you ever feel bitter for being put in prison? Now they did it again, because a decade ago, the phone company implemented a gateway between the internet and the closed SS7 network. This means it was trivial to inject tones into the trunk to control it with a Capn Crunch Whistle. left a big gaping hole in their network, just like they did when they designed their earlier system that uses “in-band” signaling. I just finished writing an article on the new SS7 Switching system of the phone company, and there they go - they did it again…. You’ll have an opportunity to ask me any questions about anything.īeing 72 years old, I’m getting senile, but when I was young, there was NO computers, NO internet, only Ma Ball. Unfortunately, due to an accident, I’m suffering from compression fracture of my spine, and need life saving medication, but you can benefit from this because to raise money for my healing fund, I’m hosting Google Hangouts to raise the money so I can live. Updates on the progress of my book can be found on my Facebook page, or they can search for “beyond the little blue box” page on Facebook to ask questions and comments. It turned out that Henry Kissinger was out of the country, and state said “Oops”.Īnyway, my story will soon be told in a new book I’m soon to be releasing called “Beyond the little but box”, Steve said “This is Henry Kissinger (the Sec of State then), and I want to talk to the pope to confess of my sins”. Eventually, I got through and a staff at the Vatican took the call, it was 4 am there. I said Sure, but I doubt if his box would work. Steve asked me if he could call the Pope in Italy. ![]() Steve, being skilled in Digital electronics designed this complex version of his blue box (Which is sitting inside the Mt View Computer History Museum), but the box was emitting only Square wave tones, but the phone equipment was only designed for pure sine wave tones, so most calls failed to go through.Īfter I called Steve, he invited me to his UC Berkeley dorm, where he showed me his box, and I warned him the box should send pure tones, but it did work, after about 5 tries, and fiddling with the speaker distance to the mouthpiece. Steve had discovered the tone frequencies were not valid, but stumbled upon the “Bell System Technical Journal” at the Stanford Library, and got the actual frequencies and decided to build his own blue box. KPFA staff gave me his number, and I contacted Steve. Woz tuned into the program about halfway through, called KPFA, and left his number. I showed how it was possible to “Stack tandems” or hop phone calls over as may as 12 links, demonstrating the call setup and broadcasting it on KPFA. Then, a week of so later, I was interviewed on KPFA (A Berkeley public radio station), and demonstrated some of the things you can do with this Blue Box. He found it so fascinating, and unbelievable that he thought it was fiction. Steve Wozniak, co founder of Apple Inc, was at Steve Jobs house and saw the esquire article and read it. In mid 1972, due to this information getting out from a publication in the Oct 1971 issue of Esquire magazine article called “Secrets of the little blue box”, caused a lot of heads to roll in the huge empire of “Ma Bell”. This was a big gaping hole in the network, and it took 15 years to fix it by building switching equipment to connect to the new SS7 network. With this level, you have the power of an operator, able to directly connect to other “Inward” operators, listen in on phone calls (emergency interrupt trunks), and use any of the overseas gateway codes to the rest of the world. This is an internal access point at the trunk level and not the subscriber level. With this whistle, it was possible to inject signaling tones into long distant phone lines emulating the capability of operator switchboards. Many of you older folks may remember me as Cap’n Crunch, made famous from a toy whistle found in the Cap’n Crunch Cereal box. I’m really looking forward to meeting a ton of really interesting people. ![]()

Call quest diagnostics customer service7/25/2023 ![]() Quest Diagnostics has facilities all across the globe. ![]() You can also find the specific Quest Diagnostic services, including Quest Diagnostics Genomic Services, Nichols Institute, Ameripath, and more on the website's Contact Us page. How To Reach Quest Diagnostic Customer Serviceĭo you need to reach Quest Diagnostic customer service? You have several options. Often, connecting with customer service means long hold times and a long wait to get the results you need.įortunately, DoNotPay can make it easier for you to utilize Quest Diagnostics customer service without the long hold times. Unfortunately, with those excellent platforms comes a number of challenges that could leave you needing to speak with Quest Diagnostics customer service. Quest Diagnostics offers a variety of programs and services that can make life easier for healthcare practices and private individuals alike. I will be certain to never visit a quest diagnostics center again, due to this extremely negative experience.Jump the Phone Queue for Any Company How to Reach Quest Diagnostics Customer Service Without Waiting on Hold How to Contact Quest Diagnostics Customer Service the Easy Way I can see from their google reviews that this has been going on for quite sometime, but no one has improved the situation. No one even apologized to me for having to wait so long. It's obvious the people that work in this clinic have had zero customer service training whatsoever. There is no proper receptionist or person who even greets you when you walk in. There was also someone there who was just dropping off samples, and they told him he had to wait just to drop off the samples. ![]() You should be ashamed of yourselves, making this man wait 2 hours to get one simple test when he made an appointment in advance. Apparently I was one of the "lucky ones" because the man next to me had an appointment for 10:30 am and was still waiting at 12:30 to be seen. I was shocked that I would have to wait an hour after my appointment was scheduled. I had an appointment for 11:45 and did not have my tests done until 12:45. My experience is based on a visit to 1050 NW 14th St in Miami, FL for extremely poor management of appointments and people's time. I should have read the prior reviews before taking my mom there. I had to give it a star to proceed with my review. But reading the other reviews it doesn’t look like leadership intervention works either. I would hope at least a call to the facility from the corporate office. Perhaps sensitivity training is in order at this location. I am also disappointed your staff did not express more sensitivity to a senior individual. She should never feel like this ever again. We will never use this Quest Diagnostics facility again. I am posting this so others do not use this facility and risk being exposed to this type of customer experience. I’m sure they’ve dealt with seniors before and I would hope they have not treated others this way. I was so upset my mom had to experience this behavior from a patient focused medical facility. They essentially made her feel terrible, like dirt. ![]() My mom was so embarrassed and kept apologizing to her technician, all the time crying. Because of this the other technicians were walking up and down the hallway making rude comments about the odors and the fact that my mom had been in the bathroom for sometime. The stress made her have a bowel movement in their bathroom. As you can imagine a 93 year old with diabetes and having no food since the night prior - no wonder she became upset. The technician was not supportive and my mom became upset they she would have to return at a later date to complete the testing. Because the paperwork was not there the technician had me call the doctor’s office twice to request they send it. Her appointment was 9:30 and she was not able to eat. Meanwhile my mom, who is 93 and diabetic had fasted to provide the blood work. I ended up going home and printing it, leaving my mom at this facility to endure the harassment. Twice they faxed it and twice the staff told me they did not receive it. Apparently the doctor’s office did not send the paperwork and I had to call them from the Quest location to request they fax it. I am writing to inform you of a horrific customer service issue at the Lawrenceville, NJ location: I recently took my mom for blood and urine work requested by her doctor.

Finally, have certificates printed up to show adoption of the trees and ones that are to be given as a gift or memorial.” Take pictures when you plant them and as they grow to use as proof that you planted the trees. Invest in a good quality camera to take pictures of the trees for the people adopting them. The next thing you’ll need are the actual trees and the tools to plant them. But if you run a farm, you should have one anyway. To start, you’ll need to have a simple website. This allows farmers to do what they do best - grow things. You might also consider this spin on the tree nursery idea: Fruit tree propagation, for example, can be done by grafting or budding (joining parts from multiple plants), and this increases your chances of producing the same variety of trees as opposed to using seeds. Spend some time researching how to organically source the trees you want to grow. You can buy small trees for around $20 each, or raise them from scratch. Most farmers start with 10 to 20 seedlings in a small acre, and with the right marketing strategy, they would have the baby trees sold out before they mature.

Kessen iii review7/25/2023 ![]() ![]() To further symbolize the family theme, the Igarashi family have a family dinner in the first episode.ĭuring development, a public bath was not in the plans, and the three main characters were three boys who were unrelated with each other and worked together at a theme park on an artificial island instead. There were also plans for Yukimi Igarashi to die in the first episode, but the idea was scrapped as the show's theme was family and not revenge. WritingĪlthough one of the major themes of Revice is family, most of the drama comes from the community of people surrounding the Igarashi siblings. Revice is the third series to be an anniversary like Kamen Rider Decade and Kamen Rider Zi-O, and Mochizuki felt that the trope of having former Rider actors appear in guest spots was overused, but still wanted to someone incorporate each of the past Riders into the show, which is shown through the varying forms of Revi and Vice. Kinoshita originally planned to use his own family as a model for the Igarashi family and have only a single parent, but later scrapped the idea and went with the suggestion of having a full family of five with both parents alive instead. He stated that the main reason for this was to encourage the children audience to spend more time with their family during the pandemic and realize how important they are. However as the virus showed no signs of slowing down, Mochizuki choose to go with a family drama instead. The series motifs are animals, stamps and demons.ĭevelopment on Kamen Rider Revice began during the height of COVID-19, where producer Taku Mochizuki had wanted to do a " road film"-type concept that symbolized the end of the pandemic. The series' catchphrase is " The hero and the demon are a tag team. After the finale of Revice, Donbrothers was joined by Kamen Rider Geats in the Super Hero Time Block. ![]() After Zenkaiger concluded on February 27, 2022, Revice was joined in the Super Hero Time line-up by Avataro Sentai Donbrothers. The series premiered on September 5, 2021, joining Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger in the Super Hero Time line-up after the finale of Kamen Rider Saber. It is the third series to debut in the Reiwa Era and the thirty-sixth overall, and serves to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the franchise.

Best black library books7/25/2023 ![]() Well, for the most part - Dan Abnett gives us also a good measure of what made WH40K popular - the *boom boom bang bang* - but the bulk of the book consists of unraveling an intricate web of deceptions and conspiracies. It is a full-blown sci-fi thriller set in the 40K universe. Although cleverer than it seems at first glance, when all said and done, the core of them is comprised of explosive battles and shootouts. In essence, 40K is pulp military science-fiction. Those familiar with the usual 40K fare will undoubtedly be surprised at how this novel is presented. The tagline for "Legion" is indeed an accurate one - 'secrets and lies'. Their arrival seems to turn the tide of battle, but the Imperials are unaware there are several other parties involved in this conflict, and just to what lengths are the Nurthene prepared to go to defend their homeworld. And yet, the campaign which was estimated to last but a few weeks had been prolonged to long months, reaching the point when outside aid had been summoned in the form of the Alpha Legion, the youngest and the most secretive of all the Legion Astartes. That is in opposition to all the facts - since the inhabitants are a lowly and technologically under-developed strain of humans, and the Imperial Army is superior in every aspect. Whatever the case, I expected from "Legion" to be nothing short of amazing.Ī 'compliance' undertaking ('compliance' being an euphemism for 'invasion') by the 670th Imperial Expedition on a backwater planet called Nurth is not going according to plan. It was penned by Black Library's best-selling author and arguably the most talented (I say 'arguably' because there are other amazing authors in the BL ranks who are overlooked). This Warhammer 40K novel, the seventh installment of the Horus Heresy series, deals with the Alpha Legion. Ultimately of course this is a story about how and why the Alpha Legion turned traitor but even that isn't as black-and-white as it sounds.Īs a standalone book, this is one of the best sci-fi stories ever written and as part of the Horus Heresy series, it sadly leaves many other attempts in the shade. The fact that Abnett makes every strand of the story as interesting as every other is a testament to his skill as a writer. If this wasn't enough (and it surely is), the background of war against a primitive but indomitable foe is fascinating to stand on its own two feet. ![]() ![]() Abnett takes the mysterious Alpha Legion and makes them more mysterious still the Imperium's last words in duplicity and deception. In actuality, this - practically alone in the Gothic Sci-Fi genre - is a book mostly about espionage. Abnett has clearly been wanting to write a James Bond-ish character into Warhammer 40K ever since his Eisenhorn novels, but here he pulls out all the stops with John Grammaticus, a somewhat reluctant spymaster. otherwise, we are all just people who enjoy the game.Just when it seemed as if the Horus Heresy series was about to go off the rails, Dan Abnett produces not only the best Heresy novel to date but possibly the best Black Library book, period.įor Abnett fans there are a few of his conventions present and correct: Action seen through the eyes of (relatively) ordinary humans, a focus on character at the expense of action and the odd jaw-dropping twist here and there.

Who wrote the rocky balboa speech7/25/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s an interesting story, one that I can identify with in many ways, but as with most media I digest, I try to pick out something that relates to me beyond the obvious. Tony Robbins, one of my other heroes, tells the Rocky story in the following video, a video I hadn’t found until years later, about the original inspiration for the Rocky movies and a background on Sylvester Stallone’s life itself. But look at you now, you’ve become a shadow of what you could have been…and the only way you are going to get back to creating something special is by continuing to take the hits and to get up time after time believing that you can accomplish anything you want to in life.” ![]() Fear has truly coursed its ways through my veins and paralyzed my dreams and growth.Īnd there stood my potential as if to say, “Kid, before all of this got to you, you were going to be something great. I wanted to blame my family, my friends, the weather, anything I could possibly find so my ego wouldn’t be damaged by the understanding that I had created my own worst nightmare. I didn’t want to admit to myself that I was in fact responsible for my choices, my actions, and my reactions to the events that had occurred in my life. If there was any characteristic that properly defined my younger high school self, it would be just that: blame. We’ve all been in a place where we have surrounded to our almost innate ability to blame everyone else for what we don’t have and who we have become. Those childish words spewing blame, embarrassment, and fear sent shivers down my spine. I saw my weaker self, the part of myself that landed me exhausted and sick in bed fighting against my potential – the man I knew I could become and who would put on the gloves to fight for his dreams and what he believed in. In the speech to his son, I didn’t relate as much to the literal talk between father and son, but was instead struck by something much deeper that only one other movie, Warrior, has been able to do. How much you can take and keep moving forward.” – Rocky Balboa “But it ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. This post isn’t a breakdown of the movie, which you should watch by the way, but it’s about one quote…a quote that actually became my senior quote in high school, and how it changed the course of my young life. ![]() What I soon found out was that the movie would have probably the greatest impact on my life, more than any other movie, book, or piece of media I had ever seen. I had always loved Rocky movies, but after Rocky V, I really didn’t know what to expect. I remember being at my worst laying sick in bed, mentally sick, physically ill, beaten down and feeling like I had been dragged through hell, and deciding to watch Rocky Balboa, the last round Sylvester Stallone would fight in the Rocky series. But until you start believing in yourself, you ain’t gonna have a life.” I’m always gonna love you no matter what. And not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that! Now if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth! But you gotta be willing to take the hits. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! But it ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. Let me tell you something you already know.The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. And when things got hard, you started lookin’ for something to blame, like a big shadow. You let people stick a finger in your face and tell you you’re no good. But somewhere along the line, you changed. Then the time come for you to be your own man and take on the world, and you did. It was great just watchin’ you, every day was like a privilege. This kid’s gonna be somebody better than anybody I ever knew.’ And you grew up good and wonderful. I’d hold you up to say to your mother, ‘This kid’s gonna be the best kid in the world. “You ain’t gonna believe this, but you used to fit right here. The truth is, it would change the course of my life forever. More than anything else, this Rocky speech dragged me out of a hell I couldn’t find my way out of.
