By their very purpose passwords are aimed to keep us safe. But, there are passwords that are hacker’s dream. So, for passwords to save us, we need to have safe passwords.

Internet security firm Imperva recently unveiled a list of most commonly used passwords on the Web, which it say are also the most `unsafe’ passwords. The list is based on Imperva’s analysis of 32 million passwords.

Read on to find out the 10 most easily hacked passwords.

123456, 12345

The study reveals that ‘123456′ is the most commonly used password. Imperva found that nearly 1% of the 32 million people it studied were using “123456″ as a password. The second most vulnerable password is 12345.

Amichai Shulman, of internet security firm Imperva, said, “With only minimal effort, a hacker can gain access to one new account every second — or 1000 accounts every 17 minutes. “Everyone needs to understand what poor passwords mean in today’s world of automated cyber attacks.

123456789, password

The next most dangerous password according to the study is again combination of digits — 123456789.

Security experts at Imperva suggest taking a sentence and transforming it into a non-existent word. For instance “This little piggy went to market” might become “tlpWENT2m”.

The fourth most vulnerable password is the word ‘Password’ itself.

iloveyou, princess

At No 5 on the list of easily hacked password is ‘iloveyou’. This is followed by ‘princess’ at No 6.

According to the study, nearly 50% of users used names, slang words, dictionary words or trivial passwords (consecutive digits, adjacent keyboard keys, and so on). Researchers advice mix upper and lower-case letters, numbers and even symbols such as %,* or $.

rockyou, 1234567

‘Rockyou’ is at No 7 on the list of easily hackable passwords. The study reveals that almost 60% of users chose their passwords from within a limited set of characters. About 40% of the users use only lowercase characters for their passwords and about another 16% use only digits. Less than 4% of the users use special characters.

Rockyou is followed by 1234567 at No 8.

12345678, abc123

Next on the list is 12345678 followed by abc123 at No 10.

Researchers at security firm Imperva advice to use a different password for all sites. Also, the password should contain at least eight characters. The report reveals that just one half of the passwords contained seven or less characters. A staggering 30% of users chose passwords whose length was equal to or below six characters.

 

Spring is on the way which means wedding season will begin. And you are trying to find ways to look your best. Here are 8 tips to help you be gorgeous on your wedding day!

 


1. Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day because it helps you feel full.
2. Try to get at least 7 hours of sleep each night.
3. Eat every 2 to 3 hours to keep your metabolism up, efficiently burn calories and keep cravings in check.
4. Include fiber like fruits, veggies, beans and whole grains in every meal to keep your digestive system working. Great for a flat stomach!
5. Forget fried. Opt for the grilled version of everything.
6. Feeling hungry midday? Instead of grabbing a bag of fatty chips, eat a handful of almonds or low-salt nuts (keep them in your desk drawer or glove compartment); the protein will fill you up.
7. Don't give up on carbs. Just swap whole-wheat breads and pasta for white bread, and lots of leafy green veggies instead of fried foods. (Same goes for fat. Use olive oil instead of margarine and butter.)
8. Pack protein in to your diet, but make sure it's in the form of egg whites, lean chicken, light-meat turkey and tuna. Try to avoid bacon and breaded meats.

Here's a sample diet:

BREAKFAST:
1 cup of Green Tea
1/2 cup oatmeal with blueberries

MID-MORNING SNACK
Banana with peanut butter
 
LUNCH:
Tuna sandwich with slices of tomato and lettuce on whole-wheat pita or bread
Sub 1 teaspoon of non-fat mayo in for high-fat mayo.

MID-AFTERNOON SNACK
2 slices of sodium-reduced chicken or turkey or a handful of almonds
 
DINNER:
4 oz. grilled chicken breast
1 medium yam or sweet potato
Small green salad with tomato, cucumbers and balsamic vinegar

In most relationships we fight. Sometimes things just get nasty! Things are said that can't be taken back. Here are 10 tips to help you avoid getting in that situation!

1.) Soften Your Approach - who hates that already aggressive toned “we need to talk.” Ugh. The other person is already gearing up for battle … not a good starting point. Pose a question, “hey babe, can we talk?” Or, “I’ve got a few things I’ve been wanting to talk to you about, you got a minute?” This is setting the stage for equal engagement and the likelihood of getting a productive response is greater.

2.) Don’t Devalue - patience is key! When you’re pouring your heart out, expressing your feelings or stating your position, the last thing you want to hear is, “that is SO stupid,” or “what you’re saying makes NO sense,” or “what are you talking about?” Phrases like these make for an immediate shut down. Never make your loved one feel as though their thoughts and feelings are trivial and invalid. Try this instead, “help me understand where you’re coming from,” or “please explain further.” Yea, it’s like pulling teeth, but you want your loved one to feel comfortable expressing themselves to you. Again, patience.

3.) Take a Breather - in the heat of the moment it is so easy to be combative, fly off at the mouth and say mean-spirited things you don’t mean. It’s okay to have a problem and it’s okay to let it be known, but hollering with your arms folded, eye-rolling and not letting your partner get a word in edgewise is not communicating! It’s a turn off … a COMPLETE turn off. Back off and breathe for a few, let your loved one know, “I’m hot right now. Give me moment to collect my thoughts.” What you’re displaying without saying it is, “I don’t want to fight.”

4.) Listen – when your partner says, “can I finish? Will you let me finish please?” This is no bueno. Let your lady/man speak his/her mind. Who cares how long it takes! Allow the venting process to take place and perhaps when he/she is finished you won’t have to say much at all. Listening to your partner is just as much a part of the communication process as speaking. Sometimes just hearing him/her out is all it takes to quell a dispute.

5.) Drop the Defense - there are two teams: Team Me and Team You. The both of you cannot be in defense mode if you want resolution. Somebody has to play offense. Somebody has to be “the bigger person.” It’s easy to react and take part in the emotional whirlwind that suddenly came sweeping through the room, what sense does it make to go a-whirling with it? Try for this in a soothing tone “hey, whoa! Baby, calm down. Relax, have a seat. Let’s talk about this.”

6.) Find the Root of the Problem - the fact that you left your socks in the middle of the floor or forgot to flush the toilet is not the real reason that you’re in the throws of a battle. Get to the root of the issue by refusing to participate in the trivial bickering. It’s not the socks or the gift in the toilet that’s got him/her on tilt! Ask your partner or yourself, “what’s the real problem?” “Is there a deeper issue that needs to be confronted?” Once you figure it out, apply the measures listed above.

7.) Agree to disagree respectfully - in a perfect world we would see eye to eye all the time, but we all know that’s not the case. Instead of approaching the situation expecting compliance, just shoot for understanding. You simply cannot convince someone to see it your way. It’s okay to disagree, explain why you do and find a happy medium. You can save yourself the exhaustion by looking for ways to work together to reach a hub of solid communication. After a while it becomes effortless.

8.) Take ownership - if you’re wrong, admit it. Don’t blame your partner or his or her actions for your behaving like a child or being irrational and immature. “I did that because you do xyz.” Why do we have to duck and dodge the b.s. BEFORE addressing the real issue? Be responsible and say, ” hey, you know what? I was wrong for that. This is why I did it. I understand why you’re mad right now. I’m listening.” If it’s warranted, take that verbal lashing! If you effed up, you effed up! And now, by default, you have to listen to your lady/man fuss about it. It happens to the best of us, we all have to sit in the hot seat from time to time. It’s okay.

9.) Ask questions - a good Q & A can be really helpful and eye-opening. Ask simple and candid questions. As corny as it sounds ask your partner, “how did that make you feel?” “Why are you crying?” “What can I do to help us move past this?” This will give him/her a chance to verbalize specific needs and wants and it gives you a chance to make it clear how you plan to deliver.

10.) Sex - self explanatory. Nothing like some good lovin’ to quiet a storm in the making. But here’s the deal, just because you had a good session doesn’t mean the problem is fixed! Sex is just a leeway to better communication! Sex is a stress reliever and once you’ve relieved some tension, talking things out is all but effortless!

Ok so a friend tweeted this and I had to share! Pretty funny.....For me especially because it happened to me with Akon! I'm still a little sad! :-(

 

 

There’s a pain you feel when someone unfollows you on Twitter.

Like a breaking up pain.

A quiet dumping.

Ha!

Quiet dumping.

We all feel it.  It’s like that song Everybody Hurts by REM.

Play that in your mind while you read this.

If you’ve just been unfollowed by someone and you’re hurting, I’ll pilot you through the five stages of your hilarious pain.

1. Discovery.

Months ago, Melrose Place’s Lisa Rinna began following me.

Tremendous news, indeed.

When this occurred I went to brag to hundreds of my friends.

Fine.  Just my mom.

What Reena?  Is that your girlfriend?  Where did she follow you to?  Our house?

This is why I don’t tell my mom anything anymore.

I was very excited to send my first tweet that Lisa Rinna would surely see.

Moments after, I refreshed Lisa Rinna’s page.

I was unfollowed.

After one tweet.

This discovery made me realize something.  Even in 140 characters or less, Lisa Rinna can’t stand me.

2. Denial.

Evan Williams, CEO of Twitter also tasted the Tremendous News twitter goods and decided it wasn’t for him.

I know this because I would refresh Evan Williams page each day to make sure he was still following me.

You probably shouldn’t have said that.

That’s where I am emotionally.

There.

One day I realized EW wasn’t following me anymore.  But you know what I did in my mind?

I pretended he still was.

You probably shouldn’t have said that either.

If I don’t believe it happened, it didn’t happen.

3. The Passive-Aggressive Desperate Plea To Be Refollowed Veiled Under A Thin Cloak Of Sarcasm.

Hey, why the unfollow?  Did I hit a nerve with my last tweet lol.

I’ve done this too.

The horrible “lol” at the end just makes it worse.

 

4.  Devastating Insecurity.

People on Twitter all share a common bond.

We’re all insecure messes.

It’s because we’ve been unfollowed.  It makes us unsure.

Hey guys, sorry I tweet too much!

We disclaim everything.

And after you’ve been unfollowed, you start to question what you tweet.

Should I tweet the link to Read Write Web or the link to Mashable?   I can’t make another mistake.

You become just a hollow shell of your nerdy self.

Hilarious.

5. Acceptance.

Finally, after some time repairing your emoticons, you realize you don’t give a shit.

You were unfollowed.

You’ll be unfollowed again.

But there’s always new people who will buy into you.  Who will want to discover your electrical body.

It’s like a train.  People will get off, people will get on.  But you just have to keep moving forward.

There you have it.  The five stages of pain after being unfollowed.  Send this to anyone who is coping with the hurt.
