POWAY, Calif., Feb. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Apricorn (www.apricorn.com), a leading manufacturer of secure encrypted USB drives for government, healthcare and business today announced its FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation for the Aegis Secure Key. The encrypted flash drive incorporates secure PIN authentication via an embedded keypad and 256-bit AES hardware encryption, providing 100% hardware based security solution.

Required for all devices procured by the US government that utilize cryptography, the Aegis Secure Key's FIPS 140-2 validation covers 11 areas of its cryptographic security system, including physical security, cryptographic key management and design integrity. The Aegis Secure Key's FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certification encompasses all areas including the Aegis Secure Key's physical tamper-resistant features as well as its identity-based authentication.
The Aegis Secure Key FIPS validation covers multiple layers of data protection:
- Military grade AES CBC 256-bit hardware encryption – protects 100% data in real time
- Alphanumeric keypad – Onboard keypad prevents hardware and software key logging
- 7-15 digit PIN code access – Up to 15 digit memorable number or word
- Software Free Design – Cross platform compatible, and no Administrator Rights required
- Tamper resistant – Epoxy resin destroys circuit board components if tampered with
- Tough, water resistant design – Sealed extruded aluminum casing protects from dust and water
- Auto-lock on loss of power or ejection to prevent unauthorized access
- Brute Force Attack Defense Mechanism – Crypto erase after 10 consecutive failed entries
- Encryption keys are randomly generated
- OS/Host independent – Compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome, Android and Symbian
- Available in 4, 8, 16 and 32GB capacity (32GB validation pending)
The Aegis Secure Key does not employ software, either for its authentication or encryption, and uses an onboard keypad to unlock the drive before connecting to a USB port. This hardware based authentication ensures that key loggers are unable to capture the password via a keyboard. This is coupled with the Aegis Secure Key's Brute Force Attack Defense Mechanism, a security measure that performs a crypto erase that destroys the encryption key when the PIN is incorrectly entered 10 consecutive times.
"Already deployed by many businesses as part of their data loss prevention (DLP) strategy, the Aegis Secure Key's FIPS validation offers confirmation for corporate America, and also for those in the government and the military, that our design and encryption implementation are secure," said Mike McCandless, VP of Sales and Marketing. "With thousands of unencrypted USB drives going missing every year and security threats from key loggers and malware, it is imperative that companies look to hardware based authentication and encryption to protect their data. The Aegis Secure Key provides that."
Securing FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation means that Apricorn's Aegis Secure Key has passed rigorous testing conforming to CAVP (Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program) and the CMVP (Cryptographic Module Validation Program) by a certified third-party laboratory. The Aegis Secure Key's FIPS 140-2 validation has been listed by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) under certification 1876.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Woodiel published an op-ed in Sunday's Times, announcing that Arthur Laurent's generally well-reviewed revival of West Side Story, playing at the Palace, would soon lose half of its string section. Worst of all, they would be replaced by, ew, synthesizers.
He writes:
Some shows need orchestras and violins; others don't. But West Side Story is one of those shows that does. The show is inseparable from its lush, sophisticated orchestration. So here's my proposition: if the show is no longer profitable, the producers should simply close it with its dignity intact. Doing so might put me out of work, but it would honor (rather than demean) the legacy of Bernstein's crown jewel. (emphasis mine)
The city that was tripping over itself to celebrate Bernstein's 90th birthday just two years ago is now silently denigrating him on Broadway.
Of course, who's going to hear a difference? As Woodiel writes, "if you happen to be listening, as Lenny would have suggested you do, you will notice." But that's a pretty big "if". Audiences today never listen, and maybe they deserve the skeletal section they hear.

Fugitive extradited to Hong Kong to face criminal charges
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
HONG KONG — The director of a property development company, wanted by the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) for allegedly offering bribes to a bank officer and laundering crime proceeds, has been extradited from the United States to Hong Kong to face trial. He arrived in Hong Kong Thursday. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) assisted with the investigation that led to the extradition.
Zeng Wei, 51, a major shareholder and director of United Win Holdings Limited, was arrested Jan. 27 by HSI special agents. Zeng later waived his right for the extradition proceedings in the United States and agreed to surrender himself to Hong Kong voluntarily.
With the assistance of the U.S. authorities, two ICAC officers escorted Zeng on a flight from the United States to Hong Kong. Zeng will be brought to the district court in Hong Kong this afternoon.
On Jan. 16, HSI informed the ICAC that a person named Liu Zhiqian was arrested in Saipan for immigration-related offenses when he attempted to enter the U.S. territory. That person was Zeng. The ICAC requested the United States surrender Zeng under an agreement between the government of Hong Kong and the United States regarding the surrender of fugitive offenders.
Zeng was charged by the ICAC on Oct. 7, 2010, with various offenses, including bribing an agent and conspiracy to deal with property resulting from criminal activity.
On Oct. 5, 2010, Zeng offered $2.3 million to Derick Chan Po-fui, former head of the Corporate Banking Department of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), as a reward for assisting in extending the repayment due dates of the loans owed by Zeng and/or his companies to ICBC.
Zeng was also accused of conspiring with Derick Chan to use the $2.3 million on the same day, knowing that it represented the proceeds of an indictable offense. On Sept. 25, 2008, Zeng offered a mobile phone to Derick Chan for the same purpose.
After Zeng failed to appear in the district court July 4, 2011, for trial, the court issued a warrant for his arrest. On Aug. 24, 2011, the court also ordered a seizure notice for Zeng's bail money totaling $800,000.News Source : Fugitive extradited to Hong Kong to face criminal charges

The US Senate on Saturday passed by a 90-1 vote a non-binding resolution
insisting that the United States prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear
weapons and ruling out any strategy aimed at dealing with a
nuclear-armed Iran.The only senator to vote against the
resolution was Republican Rand Paul, a Tea Party and libertarian
favorite, who argued that it was a de-facto declaration of war.Paul
had sponsored another measure that would suspend foreign aid to the
governments of Pakistan, Egypt and Libya in response to recent attacks
on US interests in these countries, but this was soundly defeated by a
vote of 81-10.Earlier Saturday, Western states defeated an
Iranian proposal at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) annual
assembly to amend their draft resolution on a policy area central to
its work in preventing the spread of atom bombs.The draft text
was adopted in a vote shortly after midnight after days of closed-door
negotiations failed to achieve the traditional consensus, with divisions
between a small number of countries led by Iran and a much larger
Western-dominated group.Diplomats said Iran and Egypt had wanted
to include language in the resolution suggesting the agency should have
a role also in nuclear disarmament, apparently reflecting frustration
on their part at the lack of faster progress on this issue.This
was opposed by a large majority including the United States, Britain,
France and Russia - four officially recognized nuclear weapon states -
which believe the IAEA is not the right forum for this, they said.The West accuses Iran of trying to develop a nuclear weapons capability in secret. The Islamic Republic denies the charge.Tehran
often hits out at the United States over its atomic arsenal, and also
criticizes Iran's arch foe, Israel, and that country's assumed nuclear
annual General Conference of the 155 IAEA member states traditionally
adopts several resolutions, setting out general and often vaguely worded
policy aspirations and guidelines, during a week-long meeting in
Vienna.As in 2011, the most contentious issue was a text
regarding the IAEA's activities in seeking to make sure nuclear material
is not diverted for non-peaceful purposes, a crucial task for the UN
agency under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

It's What I'm Thinking, Pt. 1: Photographing Snowflakes - Badly Drawn Boy
- Band Name: Badly Drawn Boy
- Record Label: The End
- Release Date: Oct 12, 2010
- Record Label: The End
- Genre(s): Pop/Rock, Alternative/Indie Rock, Alternative Pop/Rock
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 10 out of 17
Mixed: 7 out of 17
Negative: 0 out of 17
Nothing diverges too far from that model here, and even though two more albums of the same might tax the bedroom-pop-processing part of the brain, this is clearly Gough's most accomplished work in years.
It's not laden with hits, but in songs like the title track and beautiful, hook-laden What Tomorrow Brings, Chorlton's finest relocates the mojo that made everyone so excited in the first place. This story is far from over.
Although, Gough has always said that he finds music instantaneous and the lyrics the hardest part to write, It's What I'm Thinking showcases Gough at his most insightful to the human condition and himself.
Dec 22, 2010Whether you feel Photographing Snowflakes is a true return to form will depend on your reception of its six-minute title track centerpiece, on which Gough drowsily monotones his way through 10 increasingly whimsical verses with no chorus in sight; you'll either find its slow-motion, pedal-steeled sway charmingly wistful or tediously self-satisfied.
Pitched as the first part of a trilogy, this is a batch of effortlessly lovely tunes, warmly intimate and muzzy with reverb. [Nov 2010, p.81]
Although there are still individual songs here and there that are over-the-top, this album sounds more like the Badly Drawn Boy of old. But since the songs aren't up to the high standards he set for himself a decade ago, It's What I'm Thinking is more like Gough doing a mediocre imitation of early Badly Drawn Boy than recapturing what once made him great.
Dec 21, 2010His return to more intimate recording can't conceal that there's nary a melody worth savoring amid the autumnal folkiness.
Score distribution:
Positive: 0 out of 1
Mixed: 1 out of 1
Negative: 0 out of 1
Oct 18, 2010Not my favorite or least favorite Badly Drawn Boy album. My biggest problem with this album is more on the production side of things. Most of the songs are very echo-y and unclear. The songs all sound like they were taped in an unfinished basement or as if they are all poor quality mp3 versions of actually songs. The song writing is there though.… Expand

I couldn't get a picture of the best thing from today. I was looking out the kitchen window, and staring back at me was the pointed white face of a little opossum! She had that permanently startled look that all 'possums seem to have (if you've actually seen one that isn't dead in the road). I ran out with the camera, but she (?) lumbered back under the pine trees to her hiding place quicker than I could get there. We've had light fluffy snow all day so even the tracks weren't definitive enough to bother to picture. I hunted for where she might have holed up but it's pretty dense under the pines, and I wasn't willing to work that hard. Maybe she will come out again. 'Possums don't actually hibernate, but they do sleep quite a lot in the winter. Last summer I was lucky enough to find a dead one that hadn't been smashed or chewed on. So I now have an opossum skull in my collection. It is so long and thin that it would be difficult to mistake for some other mammal.

Commercial roofs are typically different from residential roofs, and most local companies tend to be residential, and not commercial roofing, experts. For example, the tops of many businesses, plants, and distribution centers tend to be flat instead of sloped, and this makes a big difference in the types of roofing materials and the way they need to be applied.
Receive training to be a commercial roofer at NRCA, www.nrca.net/Education
How to Find Commercial Roofing Experts
Do you need a roof installed, repaired, or simply maintained. As you contact local companies, make sure you ask them about their commercial roofing expertise. If the company has worked on thousands of roofs, but the vast majority of their jobs were residential, you might want to consider a company with a lot more experience in commercial roofs.
Energy Considerations
In the past, businesses just wanted a solid and durable roof for their business. They needed it to hold up without a lot of maintenance, but they did not really think about the environmental impact of a roof. If you have ever taken the chance to stand on your own business roof on a hot day, you know that the surface can get very warm.
In some cases, it might be so warm that it is uncomfortable to touch, and this is similar to the warmth of streets with fresh tar on them. That is heat that is generated from absorbing sunlight, and it might give an an idea that your own roof would be a great place to install solar panels.
If installing solar panels on your new roof is not in your current budget, there are some good ways to stop absorbing all of the heat through your roof and into your bundling. There are reflective materials that can be laid down over your roofs, and there are also types of tiles that are known for keeping cool by reflecting light back out instead of absorbing it.
According to the DOE, these measure may reflect back out as much as half of sunlight, so they might be worth the investment. First, they can help you save money on your business utility bills. Secondly, they can help you keep your business more comfortable, and that is likely to help keep your customers and employees a lot happier.
Of course, if everybody did their part to make their commercial buildings more efficient, especially when they need roofing work done anyway, we could reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Talk to a commercial roofing expert for ideas.

Top Rated Comments(View all)
Hey macrumors, you stole my thread (again):
You might take note that MacRumors actually has useful information in it.
The beta also includes a 4K display option for 60Ghz output from the Retina MacBook Pro.
60Ghz huh? That's pretty good. ;)
Do NDA's mean nothing anymore. Seriously if you are part of the program and you post here you are in violation of your NDA.
There is no other mechanism available to me to get support.
The seed discussion area is broken.
I can't take the machine to the genius bar because it's running a seed.
I can't run the feedback assistant because the machine is bricked.
WTF else can I do?!
If Apple wants to get mad at me for posting here, then that's fine with me. They've seriously screwed the pooch and I have no other options.
Not to rebut everything you said above but you are incorrect. I will not disclose which points. I am not trying to be rude or pick a fight you are just not correct. With that being said. Go into recovery mode and if you are part of the seed the new seed will automatically download, the recovery partition I am sure is intact.
So far as I am aware, there is no newer seed. It would download the same one, which I have no particular reason to believe will resolve the WindowServer's assertion failure.
Your assertion that I am incorrect with no supporting evidence has no more value than simply saying "neener neener."
Ever wonder why Apple never get things done the way it should have been pre-Lion...? :confused:
When do we expect to see 10.10 or 11 or whatever it will be called?
At the next WWDC, hopefully it'll include OpenGL being upgraded to 4.4 along with harmonisation OpenGL and OpenGL ES.
I think your "Name," says it all.
My username is first initial, last name. It's been that for 30 years.
The reason I can't rebut your specific issues is the fact I won't violate any agreement I am currently under. Every negative assertion is clearly in conflict with what I know to be true. So take what you posted and each individual assertion reverse it and boom, there you have it.
You could have been helpful, but you've been so much more.
At the time I posted there was nothing else here about it.
So information I provided was useful.
I didn't know how long it would take for a news story to go up here about it.
Who cares? MacRumors actually provided people with relevant information.
I rather have them release point updates 10.9.x with some new 'big' features instead of just fixes.
Example: Kind of how they had Facetime beta app on the current OS but then included it in the next major release.
Still not an excuse to violate your NDA which is a legal contract. Would SilverSpring be okay with you violating a NDA you had with them which is typical in all employment contracts.
Irrelevant. My relationship with my employer differs in rather obvious and substantial ways from my relationship with Apple. First and foremost is that my employer does not make themselves unavailable for consultation when I have a crisis.
Your actions simply jeopardize the existence of any beta program. I have never known Apple to leave a customer high and dry, beta seed customer or Golden Master customer, ever!
Well, then this is a new experience for you. As it has been for me, quite frankly.
Consider this discussion over and hopefully when you do have a opportunity to chat with Apple they will help you resolve your specific concern but be prepared to defend the legalities of your actions.
If they apologize for stranding me, I'll be happy to apologize for trying to seek help elsewhere.

Butler County's chief appellate prosecutor to run for judge
HAMILTON, Ohio -- Butler County's chief appellate prosecutor is making a run for judge.
Michael Oster, who is the attorney for Butler County Common Pleas judges, announced Monday he will run for the seat that retiring judge Michael Sage currently holds.
"This has been something that's been in my mind for several years now," said Oster.
Sage, who has served as a common pleas judge in the county for 24 years, will retire on February 9 of next year.
Orsen said he believes his years of experience arguing cases in the appellate division will give him a unique perspective if elected judge.
"I'm one of the few people who can probably say they've tried some of the most complex cases at the common pleas level and then argued them at the court of appeals and at the Ohio Supreme Court," he said. "Understanding the interplay between all of those courts is something that I think makes me uniquely qualified. "
Oster will run against Ben Manning for Sage's seat in the Republican primary this May.

Sometimes the current decisions we make today can affect the options that become available to us in the future time. For example, I may spend less money today in order to be able to spend more at a future point in time, such as during retirement. The name for this economic concept is "intertemporal choice."
What we expect or desire to happen in the future can affect the choices we make now. While this concept may appear obvious, it can have significant implications when we apply it to certain groups, such as politicians.
Take, for instance, the problem of cronyism. Cronyism is a form of corruption that occurs when an individual or organization colludes with government officials to create legislation or regulations that give them forced benefits they could not have otherwise obtained voluntarily. But such cronyism doesn't have to occur directly. Intertemporal choices, as economist Bryan Caplan explains, can lead to intertemporal corruption:
