Time for another news update from Wyoming .
In the last 6 weeks or so, SurvivalRing has had a major set of attacks from many different sources. Due to some open source file security holes, we had a few “Script Kiddies” break into the site, and cause both some disfigured home pages (twice), major spam attack (twice), and some political hacking from a group of Islamo-Facists, who posted anti-Israeli war pictures of war victims, including mangled children…it was horribly nasty… Mine was NOT the only site. I know of hundreds of other sites which were using the same open source tools, that were hacked in the same way…it was an automated and combined attack…but needless to say, we were a victim.
All scripts have been updated, but our chat room is still down…to be finished this weekend soon. The chat hack seriously affected thousands of sites, and for a few weeks, a huge rush of these same script kiddies kept trying to get in, after I had removed the weak link in the chat code.
I’ve even seen a video made by the hackers, showing EXACTLY how to break into and destroy sites…it was amazingly simply, once the hole was found. Be certain…I AM watching the site admin section VERY closely, and have installed extended tools to track hack attempts and IP addresses.
I’ve also had to fix a few other sites I admin, who received the same automated attacks. So, I’ve been a bit busy. My apologies for a lack of updates here on the blog.
Stay tuned…major updates coming to the SurvivalRing website.

Let us take bit of time sometime during our day today, and bow our heads in a precious moment of prayer for all those who have gone before us on this anniversary date.
Let us remember all that had happened up to that day…and has happened since.
Let us not forget…that it is up to US….the survivors…to not let this happen again….
And, if this kind of event IS repeated, God forbid…let us have the ability to have shared as much survival information as we humanly can…in any way, shape, or form possible…with the entire world, through all our faculties, web sites, media outlets, and in person.
Should another Day of Infamy occur…Let us be the first ones there to help the victims…we, the people with the skills, the knowledge, and the capacity to comprehend the abilities and talents to rescue as many as possible…with whatever tools we have with us, or can make from whatever is around us.
…and the last ones out…having done everything in our vast and deep resource of inner power and energy…to make sure that everything that could be done….must be done…and will be done….
…has been done.
Let us have had the capacity to take care of our families…completely and totally…so that no matter what, and no matter where…THEY are taken care of and out of harm’s way, with the resources, food, water, and shelter, they will need to keep going should any on of us fall.
I can’t tell you just how much I appreciate each and every one of you for being here…in this incredible little group of ours…SurvivalRing, the Tank, and more.
It is literally beyond words sometimes…and at this moment, tears are welling up.
We have a huge job ahead of us, if we are to make the difference to the American Way…that *I* think we can.
Let’s pause to remember…to reminisce…to ponder…and to pray.
Then, let’s roll up our sleeves, and just get it done.
Thank you…to each and every one of you…for all that you have done…all that you are doing…and all that we will accomplish…together.
Rich
