Buanzo - Enigform: Firefox Addon for OpenPGP signing of HTTP requests
I am a 25 year old Independent security consultant from Buenos Aires, Argentina, that has contributed to the world of information systems security since 1994, when BBSes and Linux still lived together.
A quick search for buanzo on google [1] will provide all necessary details about my professional and community background. For comprobable experience, you could also check my Rent a Coder profile.[2].
In my free time I like playing with my Punk-Pop band [3], Futurabanda. [4], and maintaining my Restaurants, Wines and Recipes site. [5]. I have to admit that my first priorities are my beloved son [6] and my wonderful wife [7].
I've contributed scripts, fixes and translations to the Nmap project. I've also acted as Expert Contributor for SANS TOP-20 2004, 2005 and 2006. I've developed tools that can be found in Freshmeat, like mprl (a getty enhancement to allow remote logins from the login: prompt of the console). I've also written the Unix chapter of the OISSG's Information Systems Security Assessment Framework, v0.1 [8]. I'm currently writing an Internet Draft to be proposed for RFC regarding Enigform.
I run the official 2600 meetings site for Argentina [9], I've been proposed, but I refused, for President of the Argentinian Free Software group called SOLAR [www.solar.org.ar]. I'm an active member of the FLOSS community since 1996, having written articles in magazines http://www.net-security.org/dl/articles/Detecting_and_Understanding_rootkits.txt, made TV, radio and newspaper appearances [10] and led different security research groups of Spain, Mexico and Argentina. Currently I contribute time thorugh my sites, forums and blogs, answering questions in mailing lists and helping coordinate some local LUGs. I do also manager the Linux Counter for Argentina [11].
My Project
Enigform [12] is a Firefox extension that enhances HTTP with OpenPGP functionality. It digitally signs outgoing HTTP requests so that a web server can authenticate the identity and data of the incoming request. It is a Web Security tool because it can, if correctly implemented as any OpenPGP based technology, render man in the middle attacks useless. I think OpenPGP already speaks for itself regarding eMail. Imagine the same benefits for http and web applications. I think Enigform can fit into the OWASP Validation Project [13].
Enigform is the reference implementation of the Internet Draft I'm working on, in discussion with members of the IETF's OpenPGP Working Group.
Some simple PHP code is enough to make a web application Enigform-aware [14]. The Smutty PHP MVC Framework already supports Enigform [15].
Long Term
Have the Draft be proposed as a Standards Track RFC document, have Enigform support directly in Apache and IIS, and port Enigform to other browsers and/or programming languages, and also provide OpenPGP De/Encryption support.
Why should I be selected
I have the experience, security awareness and means to make this project THE web security project of the decade. I am a respected member of the international security community, and I firmly believe Enigform is my greatest idea so far.
Eoin Keary - Code review Project
- Executive Summary:
I am proposing that I complete the OWASP Code review guide during this period. The code review guide was started by me in 2005 and has much information on reviewing code for common vulnerabilities. It is frequently accessed (looking at the stats on the OWASP site) and therefore is useful to practitioners.
I believe the code review guide is an integral part of the OWASP BOK (Body of Knowledge). Ensuring secure development is key to secure applications and code review is of paramount importance in this domain.
There are many sections still to be added and more to be readjusted and rewritten to reflect the current state of the security world. Much needs to be written on Web 2.0 technologies and distributed B2B technologies such as Webservices.
The Code review process and procedure needs also to be covered. A guide to establishing a mature code review process also needs to be done. Code review methodologies also need to be discussed.
- Objectives and Deliverables:
Update of the code review guide:
- Add additional areas relating to the code review process such as:
- Benefits and pitfalls
- Methodology
- The code review process
- Transactional analysis
- Managing the code review process
- Assigning risk to findings
- Technical guides
- Language specific best practice
- Java
- MySQL
- Stored Procs
- Technical guides
- Code review by vulnerability:
- Reviewing Code for Buffer Overruns and Overflows
- Reviewing Code for OS Injection
- Reviewing Code for SQL Injection
- Reviewing Code for Data Validation
- Reviewing code for XSS issues
- Reviewing Code for Error Handling
- Reviewing Code for Logging Issues
- Reviewing The Secure Code Environment
- Reviewing code for Authorization Issues
- Reviewing code for Authentication Issues
- Reviewing code for Session Integrity
- Reviewing code for Cross Site Request Forgery
- Reviewing code for Cryptography implementation issues
- Reviewing code Dangerous HTTP Methods (Deployment)
- Race Conditions
- Code review by vulnerability:
The areas of code are structured giving a brief explanation, the anti-pattern (vulnerable pattern to look for) and a suggested fix.
- Why I should be sponsored for the project:
I used to head up the code review team as part of the application security group in fidelity investments and have 5+ years of the secure code review process. I also was the lead of the Testing guide until V2 was published via the Autumn of Code.
I have always delivered any work I have volunteered for on time.
I have been involved in OWASP projects for 2/3 years now and have always been an active contributor.
Paolo Perego - Owasp Orizon Project
- Executive Summary:
Owasp Orizon [16] Project born in 2006 as answer to the lack of common engine and library usable by opensource code review related tools.
I'm proposing that, during the Spring of Code 2007 period, I'll complete static analisys API and java source code enforment objects.
Sometimes a complete code review approach is not suitable for most customers who wants to harden their code which is being approaching release stage. For such a reason, I started writing Java objects that embeds most of the security checks against common web vulnerabilities (XSS, SQL injection, Session handling, ...) so that source code can be hardened with a small effort in terms of code rewriting.
I do believe that a common set of API and a common safe coding best practices library is one of the most important goals to bring application security to the developers.
- Objectives and Deliverables:
Completing the static code review API section
- improving programming language to XML translator
- improving security best practices code review scan library
- improving secure coding fashion best practices library
- writing the pattern matching scan using the aformentioned libraries
Writing the java source code enforment objects
- writing an object to handle form data values to avoid XSS
- writing an object to handle form data values to avoid SQL Injection
- writing an object to handle HttpRequest and HttpSession objects
- Why I should be sponsored for the project:
Owasp Orizon is the first Owasp project I'm involved in. I'm also contributor of Owasp Italian chapter managed by Matteo Meucci and I'm talking at various speeches about application security and safe coding best practices.
I'm a security consultant working in ethical hacking and we're approaching code review and safe topics right now. I'm a developer too so I understand also the "dark side" of the problem developing code with security in mind.
I work using the "release early release often" paradigm so to be concrete and let other people having something usable to work with.
Sebastien Deleersnyder - OWASP Education Project
- Executive Summary:
This Education project aims to provide in building blocks of web application security information. These modules can be combined together in education tracks targeting different audiences.
Web Application Security Education and Awareness is needed throughout the entire organization, each area and level of organizations have specific needs and requirements regarding education. A manager needs other information than a security professional or developer. Novices to the profession require other training than people with several years of experience.
- Objectives and Deliverables:
Currently the project goals are to create Educational Tracks:
- Complete the consolidation page of OWASP presentations performed in the past
- A "Web Application Security Primer" Track for beginners (4 hours)
- A "What developers should know on Web Application Security" Track for developers (4 hours)
- Why you should be sponsored for the project:
I started the successful Belgian Chapter 3 years ago and have actively contributed to OWASP since then. I also co-organized the European conference last year in Belgium.
This is the first separate project that I started, originating from a local demand to set up educational tracks for people that are new to Web Application Security. There are literally hundreds of presentations and an enormous amount of information on the OWASP web site. The goal of this project is to restructure pieces of that information in reusable modules that can be combined in educational tracks. It is my believe that awareness is an important cornerstone of building secure web applications, and this project will actively support that.
If we are granted Spoc 007 participation, I will be sharing the budget with all active participants. This will be an extra motivation for project participation. I will reinvest my part in the project to set up a web conferencing / web casting solution to be used to disseminate the project results and make them available for later use.
- More details:
The detailed road map can be found here. The SpoC 007 goal is to finish Sub Goals 1, 2, 3 and 4. If time permits we can start with sub goal 5.
Subere - OWASP JBroFuzz Project
JBroFuzz is a stateless network protocol fuzzer that emerged from the needs of penetration testing. The purpose of this application is to provide a single, portable application that offers stable cross-platform network protocol fuzzing capabilities. At the same time, JBroFuzz attempts to keep the User Interface (UI) as intuitive as possible.
As seen by the emphasis given on the subject of fuzzing in the 2007 Testing Guide (v2), network protocol fuzzing serves as a fundamental cornerstone of application security testing. For this, many different categories and types of fuzzing have been defined.
JBroFuzz needs to expand and grow in order to cover network fuzzing in a more complete manner. Its modular implementation allows for the addtion of new functionality by means of independent tabs. The key tabs proposed to be added during the spring of code 2007 are (details in next section):
- Open Source Tab
- NTLM Brute Force over HTTP/S Tab
- Pure HTTP/S Fuzzing using HTTPClient
- Blind SQL Injection Fuzzing Tab
At the same time, the following existing tabs need to be updated and made more robust (details in next section):
- TCP Fuzzing tab allowing graph outputs
- TCP Sniffing tab update thread Agent Queue
- Update Generators file format
- Include SOAP and XML fuzzing
This expansion process relates to stabilising code that is presently included in JBroFuzz, thus allowing it to run for extensive periods of time (24h+) as well as adding more functionality in terms of the three new tabs.
Based on the above, the new code elements that will be added are as follows:
- Open Source Tab: Provide the ability to enumerate e-mails from newsgroups without breaching google automated search rules
- NTLM Brute Force over HTTP/S Tab: Provide the ability to enumerate NTLM as well as brute over HTTP/S NTLM.
- Pure HTTP/S Fuzzing: Implement a fuzzing tab utilising HTTPClient from Jakarta that will also allow for multi-threading
- Blind SQL Fuzzing Tab Implement a tab that extracts information from a blind SQL injection point identified on web server over HTTP/HTTPS.
For updating existing code elements that require a partial rewrite, the following areas of focus are presented in detail:
- TCP Fuzzing tab allowing graph outputs: Provide the ability to graph fuzzing results during a particular session run. This will give the ability to integrate and pickup potential fuzzing patterns.
- TCP Sniffing tab update thread Agent Queue: Update the code of the sniffing panel in order to handle threaded agents in a more memory efficient way.
- Update Generators file format: Update the generators file format to allow for the parsing and creation of recursive generators.
- Include SOAP and XML fuzzing: Include an up to date list of SOAP and XML fuzzing templates.
Overall, the above two lists of changes should provide sufficient complexity and output for the spring of code 2007, forming a challenging implementation project.
In its short life, the OWASP JBroFuzz Project has attracted the interest of the online security community with a total of appr. 5000 downloads in the last months.
Coming from a strong java background (5+ years) I decided to implement and release JBroFuzz in order to initially simplify penetrations testing processes that relate to web application and network protocol fuzzing.
I see the spring of code 2007 as a unique opportunity to industrialise network protocol fuzzing (and in particular HTTP/S fuzzing) within a single application, residing within OWASP.
Why should JBroFuzz be sponsored?
Centralising fuzzing resources into one application that has the ability to handle network protocol fuzzing over HTTP and HTTPS in a simple and intuitive manner forms an area of focus that should not be dismissed in building secure software applications.
Keep the code platform independent adds a huge advantage.
Receving an OWASP grant from the spring of code 2007 will trigger a share in the budget with all active participants depending on their level of involvement. This will be a direct function of the number of tabs and/or user functionality that they have assisted in implementing.
Joshua Perrymon - OWASP LiveCD Project
- Executive Summary:
I am proposing that I complete the second version of the OWASP LiveCD during this period. The first version of the LiveCD is now available and include many of the current OWASP documents and tools. I believe the LiveCD is one of the best mediums to promote OWASP tools and documentation. It is portable and already being used by thousands of security proffesionals to perform application testing and training.
In the current state the CD is stable and contains a lot of tools. However, this is just the beginning. There is a LOT of work that needs to be completed. The entire CD experience needs to be branded using OWASP graphics. This shouls start with the boot screen and carry all the way through to the icons and desktop graphics. The CD should also inlcude the wiki and ALL the tools developed for OWASP.
- Objectives and Deliverables:
Update of the LiveCD:
- Complete OWASP branding
- Add OWASP wiki
- Add encryption capabilities
- Add more OWASP tools
- Add more pen-test tools such as;
VOIP, RFID, BlueTooth, Wireless, etc..
- Why I should be sponsored for the project:
I had the idea of the LiveCD about a year ago and have worked very hard to get the first version developed. This was driven by my vision to make all of the OWASP tools available on a portable medium. The main difference in the OWASP liveCD vs. other live CDs is going to be the regularity of updates. If sponsorship can be obtained the CD could be updated on a monthly basis. Not once a year like other liveCDs. The CD will also include specialty tools and documentation to perform VOIP, RFID,Bluetooth, and wireless security assessments.
Mark Curphey – A Better Web Security Evaluation Criteria
Problem PCI DSS is attracting a lot of criticism for a lot of valid reasons.
The list is of course long and not appropriate here……
Solution and Deliverables As opposed to continuing to say what's wrong with PCI DSS, it seems to me that OWASP is a perfect forum to create and publish a "better criteria". This can either be adopted and implemented by an organization like OWASP or considered to be incorporated into the PCI or other security standards. This project would address the;
- The technical things people should care about
- The operational / management things people should care about
Business Model
- A complete framework for certification (ongoing) and implementation (including certifying auditors, ongoing validation etc)
Note: This is no trivial task to get right. I would need to ensure I can commit to completing the work to a good quality. I think this will take at least 2 months from start to finish to complete but I think is very important for the industry and for potentially for OWASP. I wanted to gauge the interest by first posting this.
Erwin Geirnaert - OWASP Java Project
- Executive Summary:
I would like to help the OWASP Java Project to gather all Java security related information and to document any domains that lack documentation.
- Objectives and Deliverables:
The main objective I see is to gather all information in one place, where security experts and developers can find the information they need. In order to get there, I need to collect all information in the OWASP Wiki, ask people if they want to donate it to OWASP so that we can include it as public material, add URLs, white-papers, references to books, ... And if time permits, write some documentation myself.
One deliverable is the OWASP Top 10 for J2EE applications with clear examples of vulnerabilities and mitigations.
- Why you should be sponsored for the project:
I have more then 10 years experience in Java and J2EE and the last 6 years I have tested and broke a lot of web applications. I gave also some very successful J2EE security courses and web security courses. I spoke at different conferences about application security in Europe. And I am responsible for the security track at Javapolis, one of the biggest Jave conferences in Europe. I am the co-founder of ZION SECURITY where we do security testing, code review, design reviews, training,... I'm also member of the OWASP Belgium board that started in March 2007.
Erwin Geirnaert - OWASP WebGoat Solutions Guide
- Executive Summary:
WebGoat is used by a lot of people to learn about web application security and the different vulnerabilities. But it takes a lot of time to grasp how the tools like WebScarab work and how to use them effectively in WebGoat. I propose to create a walkthrough of the lessons in WebGoat so that people can learn from the solutions, without spoiling the fun.
- Objectives and Deliverables:
The WebGoat Solutions Guide is a document that can be bundled with WebGoat. Each lesson contains a detailed solution with screenshots and tools. I created a PDF with the solution for WebGoat 4.0 but this is too big to load (15 MB) and is not very practical.
After a discussion with Bruce about this, we think that the solutions should be made like the existing Lessons Plan so it is easier to maintain and update when a lesson changes. This means that there will be documentation folder and an individual solution for each lesson.
- Why you should be sponsored for the project:
I have more then 10 years experience in Java and J2EE and the last 6 years I have tested and broke a lot of web applications. I gave also some very successful J2EE security courses and web security courses. I spoke at different conferences about application security in Europe.

Bunyamin Demir – OWASP WeBekci Project
Executive Summary:
Web application firewalls (WAF) are gaining importance among the information security technologies designed to protect web sites from attack. WAF solutions prevent attacks that network firewalls and intrusion detection systems can't and they require no modification of application source code. ModSecurity [17] is an open source web application firewall that runs as an Apache module. It is an embeddable web application firewall and it provides protection from a range of attacks against web applications. It is an open source project available to everyone; it however does not come with an admin panel.
I decided to provide this essential tool with a control panel which I believe will ease and thus encourage its usage.
ModSecurity allows for HTTP traffic monitoring and real-time analysis with no changes to existing infrastructure. My main goal is to analyze attacks and generate rules to change the configuration of the ModSecurity accordingly.
ModSecurity has a feature called "flexible rule engine" as its heart of Attack Prevention capability . It uses ModSecurity's "Rule Language," (a programming language designed to work with HTTP transaction data). It is easy to use and flexible; yet the system administrators need to learn its own rules to create what is called "Certified ModSecurity Rules" to be implemented. My control panel will automate the major code-generation in Rule Language.
Objectives and Deliverables:
- Configuration : Will add all configuration parameter
- Rule Generator: Will write all the Rules in Rule Language
- Logging : Auditlog and debuglog will be added.
- Multiple-DB : Will add PostgreSql and Sqlite support.
Why I should be sponsored for the project:
I am involved with OWASP Turkey [18] and interested very much in WAF. Even though this is my first project for OWASP, I am very much interested in every aspect of ModSecurity. With SpoC007's support I will finalize my work on OWASP WeBekci [19].
Eric Sheridan and Dr. Goran Trajkovski - The Scholastic Application Security Assessment Project
One of the major goals of the Open Web Application Security Project is to educate developers in the field of application software security. Understanding the risks and threats associated with web application software is pivotal in building a mature application security process. While OWASP has made a significant impact in the professional industry, more time and energy should be focused towards the academic community. It is an unfortunate fact that most universities do not require a stringent software security course for their computer science students. Consequently, most young developers do not have the ability to assess and mitigate the risks and threats for their own applications. It is for this reason that we believe the Open Web Application Security Project should fund an initiative to encourage the adaptation of application software security methodologies in the academic course curriculum.
The Scholastic Application Security Project is intended to be the first step towards integrating security requirements in academic course curriculums. The primary goal of the project is to give students hands-on experience performing application security assessments using the tools and documentation found at http:///www.owasp.org. The assessment, lead by an application security professional, will demonstrate to students how the information and tools found at OWASP can be used to assess and ultimately increase the overall security posture of a web application.
This project contributes towards bridging the gap between academia and industry, by equipping students with hands-on ready-for-the-job-market skills in the application software securing industry.
The Scholastic Application Security Assessment Project requires that college level students, lead by an application security professional, perform a security audit on an open source web application using the tools and information available at OWASP.
- Application Security Professional – Eric Sheridan (Aspect Security)
- Towson University (TU) Partner – Dr. Goran Trajkovski, Towson University (http://www.towson.edu)
- Students – Students of TU's Application Software Security Course (COSC 458), nominated by the TU Partner
- Web Application – The Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org/)
The Scholastic Application Security Assessment Project requires heavy utilization of existing OWASP tools and utilities. Through this requirement, the project will illustrate the fact that existing OWASP resources can be used and heavily relied upon in a professional security audit. The following is a list of notable OWASP resources whose use will be documented throughout the assessment:
- OWASP Top Ten 2007 - The security critical areas that the students will assess in the review
- OWASP Testing Guide v2 – The primary resource for building penetration testing cases
- OWASP Guide – The primary resource for technical details pertaining to a technology and/or vulnerability
- OWASP WebScarabNG – The primary proxy utility used throughout the assessment
Students are required to follow the principle of "responsible disclosure" during the course of the security assessment. The developers of the open source application will be notified if any significant issues are found. Once the assessment is complete, a final report will be delivered to the application developers and the appropriate OWASP Spring of Code personnel. For each finding in the report, the students will be required to describe how the tools and information found at OWASP were used in the discovery.
The Scholastic Application Security Assessment Project is specifically designed to benefit the OWASP brand:
The OWASP Community…
- will be provided a case study proving that the resources available at OWASP can be utilized in an academic environment, that can be later used in advertising the OWASP efforts to similar programs as the one at TU.
- will be providing students a hands on experience in learning and testing for the latest web application security threats, thus potentially enlarging the OWASP community of contributors and supporters.
- will be addressing the need to educate developers in the security critical areas.
- will be seen as offering a professional level service to another open source project.
- will be addressing one of the root causes of application software insecurity.
Eric Sheridan:
- Earned a Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science from Towson University
- Graduate Student in Information Security at Johns Hopkins University
- Application Security Engineer at Aspect Security
- Lead of the OWASP Stinger Project and the OWASP Validation Project
Goran Trajkovski, PhD:
- Has been teaching the Application Software Security course for the Computer Security undergraduate and master-level majors at TU since 2004 (TU has been a Center of Excellence in Information Assurance, designated by the NSA since 2002).
- Assistant professor of Computer and Information Sciences at Towson University, and Director of its Cognitive Agency and Robotics Lab (CARoL).
- Has lead curricular efforts in integrating application software security topics throughout the Computer Science and Computer Information Sciences curriculum
- 12 years of full time teaching experience in higher ed.

Revelation 12 – A Visual Rearrangement and more...
Revelation 12 is my favorite chapter 🙂 It begins with a specific sign in the sun, moon, and stars (fulfilled September 23, 2017). The woman, identified as Israel through strong connections to Jacob's vision in Genesis 37, is pregnant and crying out in birth pains. This birth pain theme is a thread which ties together many verses about the Day of the Lord. Basically, Revelation 12 outlines that Israel about to enter her "birth pains".https://redmoonrapture.wordpress.com/2018/02/21/revelation-12-a-visual-rearrangement/
Scott Clarke also put out a video yesterday emphasizing his belief that the Rapture will be on a Feast of Trumpets in some future year. It's only 2 minutes long and consists mostly of an excerpt from Ken Johnsons channel but I found it worth watching. Here is the video...
The Prophetic Trumpets REVEALED | Ken Johnson Explains
Lastly, Greg at Unsealed.org put together a great article for anyone who is not yet convinced the Bible is true and in danger of being left behind. It includes a great list of items that the world will soon be experiencing after the rapture of the church.
Here is the link and a excerpt:
The world is in a very real way falling apart. The day is upon us when the world will look like this:
- Millions have disappeared creating disaster, chaos, heart break and confusion.
- Some say Christ came and took His followers, although their voices are being drowned out by those who say otherwise.
- Millions of churchgoers who have been left, say it must have been something else.
- Cultists, spiritualists and the self-righteous will proclaim "anything but God," but they will be anything but right.
- Many will believe a deception of one flavor or another. Perhaps the CERN particle accelerator opened a wormhole in the space-time continuum. Still others will say it was aliens.
- When the Church is taken up, Satan and his demonic fallen angels will be cast down to the earth, with power, beauty and answers. We suppose they will masquerade as aliens with answers. Aliens they are, but aliens cast out of heaven and not from Krypton. Their objective is to wreak havoc, before they are sentenced to hell and take as many with them as they can.
- Everyone wants a cute-little-friendly-helpful-E.T.-phone-home-Close-Encounters alien friend. That's not what they'll find. Even Stephen Hawking was wary of contact with aliens.
- I speculate many will say these "aliens" have come to solve the world's problems and for a time it will seem as though they have.
- In the midst of the racial, moral, political, poverty and homelessness tensions, and amid anarchy, war, death, rape, murder, economic and ecological collapse, violence, and polarization, their ideas will seem the right way to go.
- Others will be out front. Perhaps some of the following: Macron, Pope Francis, Putin, Trump, Netanyahu, etc, but they are not men to follow in days like this. Love them or hate them is not the point. God commanded mankind to spread out, fill the earth, and trust in Him and not in mankind's collective ability, but humanity still pursues the Tower of Babel—The E.U., the U.N., and towers reaching to the sky all continue to go up as a declaration of our own collective independence from the only One with any real answers.
- Words like volcano, earthquake, radiation, tsunami, hail and meteor will take on meaning like never before, as God steadily increases the pressure. He loves you and will pay any price for you to wake up and repent, even if many unrepentant, dead men walking must suffer and perish to give you an opportunity (God is sovereign over everyone).
At the end of the day, no one will be able to say God did not take every opportunity and apply every pressure to urge people to acknowledge that He is God and turn to Him for redemption. He freely gives and longs to do so.

Assembly Contents
In general, a static assembly can consist of four elements:
The assembly manifest, which contains assembly metadata.
Type metadata.
Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) code that implements the types.
A set of resources.
Only the assembly manifest is required, but either types or resources are needed to give the assembly any meaningful functionality.
There are several ways to group these elements in an assembly. You can group all elements in a single physical file, which is shown in the following illustration.
Single-file assembly
Alternatively, the elements of an assembly can be contained in several files. These files can be modules of compiled code (.netmodule), resources (such as .bmp or .jpg files), or other files required by the application. Create a multifile assembly when you want to combine modules written in different languages and to optimize downloading an application by putting seldom used types in a module that is downloaded only when needed.
In the following illustration, the developer of a hypothetical application has chosen to separate some utility code into a different module and to keep a large resource file (in this case a .bmp image) in its original file. The .NET Framework downloads a file only when it is referenced; keeping infrequently referenced code in a separate file from the application optimizes code download.
Multifile assembly
The files that make up a multifile assembly are not physically linked by the file system. Rather, they are linked through the assembly manifest and the common language runtime manages them as a unit.
In this illustration, all three files belong to an assembly, as described in the assembly manifest contained in MyAssembly.dll. To the file system, they are three separate files. Note that the file Util.netmodule was compiled as a module because it contains no assembly information. When the assembly was created, the assembly manifest was added to MyAssembly.dll, indicating its relationship with Util.netmodule and Graphic.bmp.
As you currently design your source code, you make explicit decisions about how to partition the functionality of your application into one or more files. When designing .NET Framework code, you will make similar decisions about how to partition the functionality into one or more assemblies.

Sustainability, as it relates to nutrition, affects all aspects of food from systems-level production to consumption. Viability of local food systems in the southwest of the United States has been largely understudied. In order to address this gap in the literature, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 farmers in Arizona and New Mexico to determine best practices, challenges and barriers to farming. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and coded for themes. Many trends were consistent with those reported elsewhere in the US, but the importance of water emerged, a unique need not explicitly noted in other regional studies. Vegetarian diets are …

It's not due to hit bookstores for another month, but "Unintended Consequences" is already being called "the most hated book of the year," "a balm for the 1 percent," and "defense of the rich" 2.0.
Perhaps that's because in "Unintended Consequences: Why Everything You've Been Told About the Economy is Wrong," former Bain Capital managing director (and former colleague of and major donor to presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney's campaign) Edward Conard argues that economic inequality isn't a problem – and in fact, the US could use more of it to spur risk-taking, innovation, and growth.
"Unintended Consequences" "aggressively argues that the enormous and growing income inequality in the United States is not a sign that the system is rigged," writes Adam Davidson, founder of NPR's Planet Money podcast, in a New York Times Magazine column that's been raising a firestorm. "On the contrary, Conard writes, it is a sign that our economy is working. And if we had a little more of it, then everyone, particularly the 99 percent, would be better off."
"This," writes Davidson, "could be the most hated book of the year."
(In a blog posted Wednesday after the NYT piece was published, Conard said he felt misrepresented by the Times story, but acknowledged it was the price one pays to land the cover of the NYT Magazine.)
Crucial to Conard's argument is the proposition that we, the 99 percent, benefit proportionally from the vast wealth of others. "Most citizens are consumers, not investors," he told the Times. "They don't recognize the benefits to consumers that come from investment." In other words, the vast majority of Americans spend their money on survival and entertainment; the superrich spend only a fraction of their money on personal comforts, the rest "is invested in productive businesses that make life better for everyone," as Davidson writes in the Times.
Case in point: computers. A few innovators and wealthy investors earned billions improving personal computing and giving rise to the IT industry. Their work, in turn, has helped billions work more effectively and efficiently, making life more productive and growing the economy.
More payoff, says Conard, motivates more people to take risks, a handful of which could have huge payoffs for society and the economy.
But Conard doesn't stop there. He argues investment banks make the economy more efficient, too, and argues in his book that the financial crisis was not due to greedy bankers selling sketchy financial products. ("It was a simple, old-fashioned run on the banks, which, he says, were just doing their job," Davidson writes in the Times piece.) Collateralized debt obligations, credit-default swaps, mortgage-backed securities, and other dubious financial products (now deemed toxic) were sound tools that served the needs of sophisticated investors, according to Conard.
He goes even further, arguing for more – not less – government support of banks, even advocating the creation of a new government program that guarantees to bail out banks if they face another run.
That's where economists, who have been growing hoarse in voicing their opposition to "Unintended Consequences," tend to part ways with Conard.
"Until now, the official line has been that what we need are incentives — that jaawwb creeaytohrs (sic) won't do their thing unless we dangle the carrot of immense wealth in front of them," writes economist and NYT columnist Paul Krugman. "But now we're supposed to think that it's not the prospect of future wealth, but wealth in being, that's what is really so wonderful."
"Undoubtedly some degree of income inequality is necessary and good to provide appropriate incentives, but at some point – and I believe we've hit that point – it harms an economy by robbing the vast middle class of the purchasing power it needs to keep an economy going, and it generates social and political upheaval," Robert Reich, former labor secretary under President Clinton and currently Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley, told MSNBC.
Even less left-leaning, more pro-market economists like Glenn Hubbard -- a respected economist, dean of the Columbia School of Business, and one of Romney's chief economic advisors -- had qualms about Conard's as yet unreleased book.
That perhaps, is the point, suggests Conard in the NYT interview.
"People get very angry before they change their mind," he said. "Economics is counterintuitive. It just is."

(Reuters) - Hobbled five-time NBA champion Kobe Bryant is expected to miss the rest of the season, putting a crowning blow on an abysmal year for the Los Angeles Lakers, according to multiple reports on Wednesday.
Bryant, 35, has not played since December 17 when he fractured his knee during a game against Memphis after having missed the first 19 games of the 2013-14 NBA season recovering from a torn Achilles from last April.
Should Bryant miss the rest of the season, as first reported by Bleacher Report, he would have played six games this season for the Lakers, who have sagged to a 22-42 mark after posting a 45-37 record last season.
The Lakers have 18 games left and stand 15.5 games out of the eighth and last playoff berth in the Western Conference.
Bryant is not accompanying the team on its current trip to Oklahoma City and San Antonio, staying back to be reevaluated by the team doctor, Bleacher Report said.
Sixteen-times NBA All-Star Bryant, so dominant a force on the NBA stage that he was still elected to a place on this season's All-Star game, which he declined, has averaged 13.8 points and 6.3 assists in his abbreviated action.
Bryant is expected to return to the Lakers next season after having signed a two-year contract extension earlier this season.

A new report shows Missouri revenues are lagging behind growth projections as the state enters the final two months of its budget year. State figures released Friday show revenues grew by 0.5 percent through April compared to the same point last year. Those numbers fall short of the 2.8 percent growth projected by Gov. Jay Nixon's administration. State Budget Director Linda Luebbering says collections are still on pace to meet initial targets set by the administration when crafting the operating budget last year. She added that spending restrictions on state agencies and programs are not planned at this time. Missouri also repaid $350 million it had borrowed during the fiscal year, which began last July and ends on June 30.

OAKLAND — A trio of experts on Wednesday urged Bay Bridge leaders to open the seismically safer new span on Labor Day as previously planned — if not sooner — and offered a temporary workaround to the broken bolts that won't be repaired until at least December.
"The contractor has the plans and it can be done in a month," Toll Bridge Seismic Safety Peer Review Panel Chairman Frieder Seible told the Bay Area Toll Authority, a panel of local elected officials who oversee bridge toll receipts. "We don't have to wait until December. We don't know when the next earthquake could happen. We have to assume it can happen any day."
The news shook the packed meeting room, where federal, state and regional transportation leaders met in the latest briefing about the catastrophic failure in March of large anchor rods in seismic stabilizers called shear keys on the pier east of the main span tower.
The Toll Bridge Program Oversight Committee had announced Monday that rod repairs, which involve installing a steel saddle to handle the heavy load of the bridge, would take much longer than originally expected, and the panel canceled the much-anticipated Sept. 3 opening to traffic and the Labor Day celebration. No substitute opening date has been set.
It is the latest twist in the project to build a $6.4 billion bridge, which is 10 years behind schedule and costing taxpayers five times more than engineers estimated.
Until the new span opens, 280,000 vehicles a day cross the existing 77-year-old span, which nearly every engineer and seismic expert who has examined it says will collapse in even a moderate earthquake.
In offering a speedier solution, Seible, a former UC San Diego engineering school chairman, revived one of the many retrofit options engineers reviewed after the bolts snapped four months ago — inserting wedges, or shims, into the adjacent large bearings and shifting any possible forces generated during an earthquake away from the vulnerable shear keys.
Seible was flanked by his two peer review panel colleagues, John Fisher of Pennsylvania and UC Davis Professor Emeritus Ed Idriss. All are members of the National Academy of Engineering
Engineers had earlier rejected the idea because it was only a temporary fix.
"It never hurts to have a Plan B," said Steve Heminger, Bay Area Toll Authority executive director and one of three members of the oversight committee. "It merits further vetting."
While Seible has publicly opposed delaying the bridge opening on seismic safety grounds, the renowned engineer's pitch for temporary shims on Wednesday apparently came as a surprise to Heminger, Caltrans Director Malcolm Dougherty and California Transportation Commission Executive Director Andre Boutros. The three men serve as the Toll Bridge Oversight Committee and jointly manage the new span construction project.
In interviews after the 21/2 hour meeting, Heminger and Dougherty appeared lukewarm to the idea. It warrants further study, they reiterated, but the required analysis could take as long as the retrofit already under construction.
They couldn't give a timeline for when the shim idea will be fully examined, but Heminger said, "It's not like we're going to dawdle."
Meanwhile, Vince Mammano, California division administrator for the Federal Highway Administration, on Wednesday blessed the bridge team's analysis of the broken rods and retrofit plan, and its strategy to replace or monitor the other 2,210 high-strength steel bolts on the self-anchored suspension bridge made out of the same type and grade of steel.
American Bridge/Fluor Enterprises, the suspension span contractor, is working with Vallejo and Alabama steel fabricators on the steel saddle and cable assembly that crews will install on the exterior of the shear keys where 32 out of 96 anchor rods broke. The cable system will take the loads originally intended for the rods.
Heminger also revealed that the Toll Authority is filing a financial claim against T.Y. Lin/Moffatt & Nichol, the private engineering joint venture hired in 1998 to design the bridge, to recover costs for the shear key retrofit.
The oversight committee released a 102-page report this week that blamed Caltrans and the engineering consortium for a series of missteps and errors related to the shear key design, steel selection, incompatible corrosion protection methods, inadequate standards and insufficient testing that ultimately led to the failures.
Additionally, Heminger said, American Bridge/Fluor Enterprises has been asked to help pay the estimated $10 million to $20 million retrofit cost, as its workers failed to protect the rods from weather damage during construction.
The exposure may have contributed to the bolts' failure, which metallurgists blame on a well-known phenomenon in which hydrogen atoms invade the latticed molecules in high-strength steel under tremendous loads and leave it brittle and vulnerable to cracking.
After the bridge opens, Caltrans will slowly replace 740 rods used in bearings and shear keys adjacent to those that contained the defective bolts. Unlike the other shear keys, where there isn't enough room to remove the very large rods — 3 inches in diameter and 17 to 24 feet long — these are replaceable. Testing shows the fasteners may be susceptible to long-term stress corrosion, a different type of failure found in high-strength steels, the authority was told.
In addition, crews will reduce the tension on 557 other bolts and beef up the dehumidifiers in the bottom of the 525-foot main span tower. Moisture is a source of hydrogen and the greater the tension, the higher the bolts' vulnerability for embrittlement.

Hold onto your hats because it's time for another iPod wannabe, this time from Venzero. The diminutive (2.95 x 1.73 x 0.35 inches, 0.98 ounces) miniONE comes in both 1GB and 2GB flavors and is compatible with the upcoming MusicMarker service, which supposedly makes finding and identifying unknown songs totally awesome. The miniONE supports all the usual digital music formats, including MP3 and DRM-encumbered WMA. Hooray for choice.
The 1.3-inch OLED display has a color pallet of 265,000 colors and can also be used to display JPEGs and videos. (The player only plays back its own proprietary format, meaning that users will need to convert all those legally-obtained XviDs using the included software.)
The 1GB version will sell for $119 and its 2GB partner for $169. Look for both of them this July, probably without the butterfly.

By the 1930s, the MBL had become "the" place to go during the summer for biological research and training. Luminaries such as Frank Lillie, Edmund Beecher Wilson, Edwin Grant Conklin, and Thomas Hunt Morgan took their students, packed up their families and research labs, and headed to the MBL. They worked in labs, ate together in the Mess, and they often lived in the limited on-campus housing. Life at the MBL was a life where fun, family, and science intertwined.

BERKELEY — Xavier's Chris Mack has emerged as the latest candidate for the Cal basketball coaching job
Mack, 44, is Cal's top candidate, according to one source. Another source, within the Cal athletic department, said as of Thursday afternoon Mack had neither been offered the job nor interviewed
Mack has guided the Musketeers to a record of 111-57 and four NCAA tournament bids in five seasons, including Sweet 16 bids in 2010 and '12.
Mack, who replaced current Arizona coach Sean Miller at Xavier, did not return messages left for him Thursday. The Cincinnati Enquirer said sources at Xavier believe there has been contact between the two parties but weren't convinced Mack had interest.
The only confirmed candidates to replace Mike Montgomery, who retired on March 31, are Cal associate head coach Travis DeCuire and UC Irvine coach Russell Turner.
Mack is signed to a contract at Xavier through the 2017-18 season that is worth $860,000 per season, according to USA Today.

Kelly leaves lasting impression as Cardinals down Arizona
St. Louis, MO – If this was Joe Kelly's last start for the foreseeable future, he left a lasting impression.
With Jaime Garcia's return to the St. Louis Cardinals starting rotation imminent, Kelly spun 6 1/3 innings of two-run ball and his team took an 8-2 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in the opener of a three-game set.
Kelly (3-5), who has filled in admirably since Garcia went down with a left shoulder sprain in early June, scattered two runs, six hits and walked two while fanning six. Since the injury, the 23-year-old rookie responded and fired quality starts over his first seven outings. He has accumulated a 3.41 ERA over 12 starts this season.
"He had good stuff," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "He had a really good tempo working, nice change-up, fastball got better as he went."
Garcia made his fourth and possibly last rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A Memphis.
Matt Holliday smacked a two-run homer and Jon Jay cracked a solo shot for the Cardinals, who extended their winning streak over the Diamondbacks to six games. They've outscored them 41-19 during the stretch.
Ian Kennedy (10-10) surrendered five runs -- three earned -- on six hits and three walks over six frames for Arizona, which has dropped four of its last six contests.
The Cardinals struck first with a pair of runs in the fourth and added another in the sixth.
Allen Craig singled to begin the fourth and Holliday launched a two-run shot into Big Mac Land in left field. Jay cracked a leadoff homer into the bullpen in right-center field in the sixth to give the Cardinals a 3-0 advantage.
Arizona made it a 3-2 game after pushing across two runs in the seventh when Justin Upton singled and Miguel Montero slugged a two-run blast to straightaway center field, but St. Louis got both runs back in the home half. Skip Schumaker scored on an error by Kennedy and Craig plated Rafael Furcal to make the score 5-2.
Matt Carpenter tallied a two-run double and Jay added an RBI single in a three-run eighth to cap the scoring.
"We just self-disintegrated at the end of the game," Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson said.
Game Notes
Garcia is 3-4 with a 4.48 ERA over 11 starts this season ... Holliday has 81 RBI on the year, which is second in the NL behind teammate Carlos Beltran ... St. Louis was 3-for-13 with runners in scoring position, while Arizona finished 0-for-3.
