VMWare Fusion on Mac OS X: How to shutdown Windows when it is hung

I have been running VMWare Fusion with Windows XP as my guest OS for some time on my MacBook Pro. The other day, Windows XP while shutting, just hung as it seems to do from time to time on regular PC-based installed. I spent 2-days, waiting for it to complete. I even used the:

VMware Fusion menu bar > Virtual Machine > select Power Off

But it seem by using:

VMware Fusion menu bar > Virtual Machine > press the option key and select Power Off

It is the equivalent of pulling the plug out of the wall and it worked. Hope this will help someone out as it did me.

Cyber ShockWave Explained and Results

A simulated exercise titled “Cyber ShockWave” held by the Bipartisan Policy Center took place yesterday, February 16 at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, D.C. The exercise was a simulated cyber-attack on the United States to see how well members of the government would respond to a large-scale cyber-attack on the nation’s critical infrastructure. The participants were a group of former national security and administration officials from both the Democratic and Republican Party.
