I guess I'll be the only one to fess up, to me it looks good. They should now cover it in a chocolate-like substance, like milk chocolate and they would really have something. And leave the nastiness that is dark chocolate somewhere else.

I think it's a hard type candy like werther's original, so not sure if chocolate layering would be suitable for a hard candy.
I agree though, still looks good.

Apparently the words "caramel soft cremes" mean something different to you than they do to me...

Ok admittedly, I just skimmed by that page briefly, but... still... I'm too used to eating things like these[^] which are supposed to be soft, but aren't.

So, it seems like in my neighborhood, there's been quite a few car break-ins where they don't damage anything but somehow getting into the cars anyway. Some people are theorizing it's key fob hacks that are spreading throughout the country (I'll have to look for the news video) and apparently police aren't sure how they're doing it.
Anyone else experiencing weird car break-ins in their area?

No, we specialise in "weird car break-downs" round here...
But you could be right: http://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/view/32862/car-thieves-found-using-handheld-fobs-to-hack-automatic-car-locks-/[^] if they are "modern" cars with WFI enabled, you can hack into some of them with an android phone apparently...which would worry me if I lived (or just regularly drove through) a rough area. 
If you can hack a car to start it, can you stop it when you want as well? I'd have thought so...

A bit like this? Hackers take control of a Prius[^]
Still not sure why they'd want to take control of such a car though.

Yeah, I live in the middle of a large city... so rough areas are all around.

I can't say. Didn't see the car since the break-in... 
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

Auntie[^] has this story about a malware strike against SA systems. I don't know much about Dexter as malware but the SA banking/payment system is continuously alive with fraudulent transactions. My nephew works for Investec as a risk assessment analyst. He told me recently about how widespread fraud is, so much so in fact, that the SARB and the government placed an almost complete suppression on what can be reported to avoid it affecting consumer and investor confidence.
My b-i-l told us that his particular bank sends an SMS for every transaction that goes through his account if it exceeds his specified transaction threshold. Both he and his wife have reported 39 fraudulent transaction attempts on the their current account since June. By all accounts the analysis of transaction fraud, detection and notification in SA is up there with the best in the world. Unfortunately, it affects all current account holders equally. What we hear about is a small part of the problem. If those criminals could only give the same attention to doing things honestly I wonder how much better things would be.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Here is our abbreviated password policy:
1: Must contain at least one lowercase letter.
2: Must contain at least one uppercase letter.
3: Must contain at least one digit (0-9).
I had a user explain to me today that she had problems setting a new password.
She was pretty proud of herself because she managed to troubleshoot the problem on her own.
She had a problem, re-read the password policy, and realized she had included the number 13 in her password when the policy only allows 0-9.
She removed the '3' and it worked.
I just nodded and smiled.

When the policy says "Must contain at least one digit (0-9)" , As I understood the password must have at least one digit but it shouldn't restrict the user to have more than one digit right? like the password containing two digits 1 followed by 3

The password policy doesn't restrict the use of more than one digit.
She probably mis-typed on the confirmation.

Somehow the email for your post made it through the junk mail filter. Have to tell them to look for the word porno.

Those are a bit simple: where is the Haiku? The Gang Sign? You can't have a properly secure password system without those...
