The Rolling Hills Wildlife Adventure in Salina is home to a new animal, a Sichuan (suh chwann) Takin (TAH-kin).
Officials at the zoo say the 4½-year-old male takin is the first of its species at any zoo in Kansas.
Peter Burvenich, curator at the zoo, says it will be at least two to three years before the zoo considers getting a female takin to start a breeding program.
KSAL reports (http://bit.ly/RwtQKn ) that the animal had been in quarantine for 30 days but is now on public display.
Takin are native to Tibet and China. They live in the same bamboo forests as the giant panda and are closely related to goats and sheep, although they are larger.

Penn Museum's Alaskan Umiaq is Centerpiece of Exhibition
At the United Nations Headquarters in NYC
PHILADELPHIA, PA May 2011—Penn Museum's largest object from Alaska—a 15-foot long Umiaq, or Iñupiaq boat—journeys to the United Nations Headquarters in New York City, where it takes center stage in a new exhibition, The Right to Water and Indigenous Peoples, May 16 through June 30, 2011. The exhibition, which marks the Tenth Session of the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, highlights water's critical relevance to indigenous peoples' cultural vitality as well as their social and economic well being, and includes contributions from indigenous film and photographic artists from all over the world.
Read more on Penn's Year of Water website.
About the Umiaq
The Museum's Umiaq (15'1"L by 4'6"W by 1'7"H, object #29-47-5) is an Iñupiaq wooden frame boat covered with stretched walrus hide coated with seal oil, and dates to the late 19th-early 20th centuries. Sewn or spliced together without benefit of nails, which could rust and sink the boat, Umiaqs are still used by Iñupiaq people for hunting whales or for summer transport. They are easier to repair than aluminum boats and don't make metallic sounds that can frighten away whales.

PHILADELPHIA, PA Spring 2011—Following major renovations to the third floor west wing galleries—including the addition of central air conditioning, new windows, lighting enhancements and refurbishment to the terrazzo flooring and marble trim-Penn Museum reopens the wing to the public on Saturday, April 30 at 1:00 pm, with a ribbon cutting ceremony and an invitation to visit two timely exhibitions: Battleground: War Rugs from Afghanistan, a traveling exhibition making its United States debut, and Iraq's Ancient Past: Rediscovering Ur's Royal Cemetery—a long-term exhibition featuring the Museum's world renowned Mesopotamian collections from Ur, newly reinstalled.
"With America engaged in military operations in both Iraq and Afghanistan, these two exhibitions are especially relevant," noted Dr. Richard Hodges, the Williams Director of the Penn Museum. "Battleground provides a look at how one celebrated artistic tradition has been changed by war, while Iraq's Ancient Past explores an extraordinary ancient culture and heritage now at great risk from modern-day looting."
Iraq's Ancient Past: Rediscovering Ur's Royal Cemetery, an exhibition that features materials discovered at and excavated from the ancient Royal Cemetery at Ur, located in present-day Iraq, originally opened October 25, 2009. The exhibition has been closed during gallery renovations since July 2010.

Latos leads Reds in return to San Diego
Padres match up Volquez with former trade counterpart
While Reds right-hander Mat Latos and Padres right-hander Edinson Volquez have faced each other only once during their careers, much more of a connection exists.
On Dec. 17, 2011, Latos was traded to the Reds in exchange for Volquez, Yasmani Grandal, Yonder Alonso and Brad Boxberger.
The pitchers will square off a second time on Tuesday night at Petco Park in the second game of a three-game series. They dueled for seven innings on July 5 last season before a walk-off single in the ninth gave the Padres a 2-1 victory.
Though the Reds have lost four games in a row, Latos takes the hill on quite a roll. He's won three of his last four starts, including an efficient outing against the Dodgers on Thursday, when he allowed just two runs (one earned) on eight hits in 7 2/3 innings to pick up his 10th win of the season.
"I felt pretty good today," Latos said after the start. "All in all, I can't complain. That lineup that they have is a good one. I was able to work the fastball in pretty good."
Volquez is looking for his third straight win after getting a victory against the Brewers on Thursday. Volquez got off to a good start, allowing one run in the first five innings before running into trouble in the sixth. In total, he allowed three runs on six hits over 5 1/3 innings.
With an effective curveball and changeup throughout the game, Volquez struck out five. Over his last 14 starts, the righty has struck out 76 batters in his last 76 1/3 innings.
Padres pitchers have allowed one run in the past 22 innings, an RBI fielder's choice by Cesar Izturis in the fifth inning of a 2-1 win over the Reds on Monday night.
The Padres, who have seven games left in their homestand, have won seven of their last 11 games.
Reds: Choo day to day
Cincinnati center fielder Shin-Soo Choo was out of the starting lineup for Monday's series opener because of a minor left ankle sprain.
Choo pinch-hit for Tony Cingrani in the eighth inning of Sunday's 1-0, 11-inning loss to the Dodgers in Los Angeles and was promptly hit by the pitch. He then stole second base but jammed his ankle with a late slide into the bag.
"It was an awkward slide," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "I saw him when he got up, he was twisting his ankle. I didn't know how badly he had done it. He is day to day."
Second baseman Brandon Phillips joined Choo on the bench Monday, getting a scheduled day off.
Padres: Maybin close to rehab stint
San Diego center fielder Cameron Maybin continues to progress in his rehab from ligament damage in his left knee and should be ready to begin a rehab stint soon.
"He's moving around like he's getting real close," Padres manager Bud Black said. "Might even be joining that [Triple-A] Tucson team before too long."
Maybin injured his knee after landing on it while attempting to catch a fly ball on June 9, just four games after he returned from a right wrist injury that cost him 45 games.
"I think the key is for him to get back on the field and play the rest of the season healthy," Black said. "How he plays, his legs are a big part of his game and speed, and the wrist is hopefully not a factor."
Worth noting
• The Reds, who scored 36 runs over the first five games of their 11-game West Coast road trip, have scored only three runs over their last 38 innings. They were 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position on Monday and are 1-for-23 in those situations during their four-game losing streak.
• Reds reliever Jonathan Broxton (right elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday. Broxton threw live batting practice to Reds hitters on Saturday in Los Angeles.
• Padres outfielder Carlos Quentin was scratched from the starting lineup for Monday night's series opener with a sore left knee but was preparing to pinch-hit before Chris Denorfia's home run ended the game.

Camby or Amare?
Anyone NOT pumped about MC23 back in MSG, should seek psychiatry!
But then you have to worry about the offensive side of the ball too. Chandler and Camby aren't scorers and you would end up relying on Melo iso ball. Stat is an important part of the equation as he takes some of that pressure off of melo. In my opinion, it's better if Chandler and Camby split minutes rather than be on the court together. Plus, it's easier for them to share fouls that way.
The Knicks will be without Marcus Camby for at least their first two preseason games.
An MRI on Camby�s left calf revealed it was strained. He�ll miss 7-10 days.
Amar�e Stoudemire also joined the Knicks� injury report Saturday as he didn�t practice due to a sore left ankle.
Camby has always been among the league leaders in rebounding and blocked shots � especially for 48 minutes....

...and the season hasn't even started yet.
Better it happen now before we face Brooklyn and Miami followed by a double header V Philly.
There's every chance we could start the season 0-4. Now's definitely better than in 3 weeks time, and the preseason games are well spread out.
This is nothing... Coach has been running them hard so this is expected. 7-10 days is just a precaution and the fact it happen this last practice is good. The next few practices are going to be slower and more studying in the film room. Guys will get their legs back under them and all the little injuries will have time to recover.
What I like about this training camp so far is that they are really getting competitive. Chandler was being interviewed and said that even on light days when a little competition starts guys start really going at each other and that's exactly what I want to hear. Plus the starting lineup isn't playing against guys like Toney Douglas and Sheldon Williams anymore. We will be better prepared this year then ever before.
Bynum gets injured, kobe gets injured, and guess whose gets ripped on for injuries? the knicks, for injuries that shouldnt even be considered injuries. im getting sick and tired of the media giving the knicks **** about everything.
Here we go again with Atari...this is absolute proof that its time to trade him. I have had it with this f*ckin guy, i bet he was on his crippled weak knee's begging Woodson to take him out of practice.
Another 100 million down the drain, just think of all the good that money could do. Amare is a criminal and should be locked behind bars. Hes an embarrassment to the organization and to the fans. Hes an embarrassment to me as a man, just knowing theres another man out there with eyes, hands, and a d*ck just like me thats built like a b*tch. A man should be a man and a woman should be a woman, I dont know where the f*ck that leaves Amargarbage

Just thought I'd give people a heads on the latest Nvidia 8000 series cards. Many a problem with these cards and the new driver you need for them to operate.
See: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=93082
So if your looking for a new card, stay away for now.

Thanks! I was about to pull the trigger on a 8800GTS. Guess I'll wait to see when either company gets their act together.
Good lookin' out, bro. I've had it with ATI, so I was just shopping for an nvidia SLI setup; you've saved me quite a bit of grief, most likely.
Hey all, I had problems when I first got this card. I couldn't switch from my desktop to console. So after 3 minutes on goggle I found a Fix. Booting Linux in VGA=Normal fixed everything for me. I don't get the fancy SuSe background in console or the boot splash anymore but I have not had a problem since. This also holds true for these cards in SLI mode also.
Hello everybody.
Is all that means, that nobody can make an Geforce 8xxx run without trouble under linux ?!
I expected to change my computer this summer, i go for a core2duo, bad news...they are buggy.... with an Geforce 8800 GTX...no luck, they are also buggy with troubles under linux....
Any advice ? Getting a 7950 serie ?

This is about the same setup I have, have you tried it under solaris? If the 8xxx work under solaris with that rig, I'm set!
Hello all, Hello Throwing Strikes, thanks you for the pictures and for your comments.
i expect to buy one 8800gtx soon, i was in doubt. I think i gonna take my luck after all. The Nvidia drivers maybe need to be improved, they do it generally, so...
Anyway, thanks again for your comments.
Hello Gazzonyx, I've never played with Solaris before. To get my 8800 working in Linux I had to change a boot setting (VGA=Normal) to get rid of the nasty bugs people are talking about with this card under Linux. So I'm not sure what you would have to change/do to get this card working if anything at all under Solaris.

salted MD5 / SSL / ??
Posted by:
Date: December 20, 2008 08:32AM
There was this application which I was auditing last week which had no SSL implementation. I recommended of salted MD5 hashing besides SSL for a multi-tier protection.
Now my question is, if for a site you do not have SSL but salted MD5 implemented, you can protect authentication credentials but not session credentials. If SSL is not acceptable for an application due to some reason (heavy load or frequent building and tearing down the code for updation), what possible way(s) can be used to protect the session credentials or protect against session attacks?

Using MD5 to store the password hashes on a site that doesn't use SSL is like putting a lock on your front door where you need to use the key on the inside, but the outside has the knob you just turn to unlock.
You are sending the passwords in clear text and then comparing hashes. Save yourself the time, if they don't want SSL might as well store the passwords in clear text.
It is not the degrees you hold, but the mind you possess. - thrill
Re: salted MD5 / SSL / ??

You are not getting. The application is using salted MD5 hashing which means the passwords are going in a salted MD5 hashed form (different string each time) as the salt changes each time.
So the passwords are safe in the transit and they are safe (in one way) on the server itself i.e. stored as MD5 hashes. But...
What I was talking about in the first place is that if the passwords are safe with the salted MD5 hashing, still the session credentials (Session IDs, cookies, etc) are not if the application is on non-SSL channel. A malicious user gets the clear text session-credentials in this case which exposes the application to Session attacks.
Sorry if I was not that comprehensible. Let me know if I am missing anything.

is the password hashed at the client side before being sent to the server side( is MD5 implemented in client side), in that case replay attacks are a good possibility even if the salt is changed everytime.
Re: salted MD5 / SSL / ??
Posted by:

Can you explain how is that possible if the salt varies each time?
The way it is implemented currently is as follows:
Client side:
Password ---> MD5 = Temp
Temp + Random salt ---> MD5 = Result
Result is sent to the server.
Server side:
MD5 stored password + Same random salt ---> MD5 = Result
Both results are then compared before access is granted.
I think Replay attack is not possible if a highly random salt is generated for each request.
Re: salted MD5 / SSL / ??

if that is the procedure then we can rule out the replay attack, but can't the password be recovered since we already know the salt value we can create a rainbow table for the password hashes in 5-6 days if going with a dictionary based attack then even less time is needed, exposing the salt is a bad practice. are u using any criteria for preparing passwords , for ex. it shd have a numeral,capital letter, and must have atleast six characters long etc.??
Re: salted MD5 / SSL / ??

The salt (which is stored temporarily in the session object for the particular session instance) is unset after the authentication is successful. So, if you log out and log in again, the salt will be different. No use of rainbow table or even you know the salt for that instance.
I read another post on the salt thing which mentioned that the salt is always the same at the server which is insecure. In my case, whenever you visit the login page, the salt will be different each time. Its gonna change the string in transit each time when submitted to the server. In plain words, you can't get the MD5 hash of the password due to the highly random salt concatenated to the MD5 hash.
I have the code with me, if you (or anyone) like please check it out. Here you go:
Sure, password complexity is being followed.

the only remote authentication protocol who protects credentials both during transport, AND on the remote server is SRP. [http://srp.stanford.edu/]
if you only care about the transport level credential security, you can use many non-plaintext protocols like CRAM-MD5, CRAM-SHA or whatever suits your needs and requirement.
zero knowledge proof is a quite complex mathematical problem. don't take it too lightly, and from what i have seen, you're homebrewing crypto. this is *bad*
bad like in 'if i took a webdev doing that kind of stuff, he would soon hope for the relief of id's wrath'
you're not a cryptographer, get your fucking hands out of this. now. use standard protocols, use standard library functions, follow guidelines, read the corresponding RFCs, GROK the corresponding RFCs. and at any point, make absolutely *sure* that all points of your authentication procedure obey low guidelines, read the corresponding RFCs, GROK the corresponding RFCs. and at any point, make absolutely *sure* that your authentication procedure obey Kerckhoffs' principle. obscurity protected schemes : we break it.
oh, look, was that a rant ?

Thanks for your reply.
Oh well, do you really think its a homebrewn cryptology?
This scheme is being implemented in many government and other applications. Give me one flaw in this scheme. I do not know of any at the moment. May be there is which You know or has not been discovered yet. That's why we say Security is not a characteristic but a measurement. Same holds true for SRP, etc.
I agree with you when you say SRP protects credentials both at transport level and server level. But are we talking about only authentication credentials which are already secure with salted MD5 hashing? Does SRP protects session credentials? If not why should I overload my server with SRP if it going to provide me nothing more than salted MD5 hashing? (I am talking about insecure session credentials here.)
Thank you for the other wealth of information.
P.s: Yes, your talks were exaggerated which could have been said a bit courteously.

If we put a unique value (nonce) on each page behind authentication and validate the same at the server side for each request akin as in mitigating CSRF, would it mitigate attacks like Session Fixation or Session hijacking ?
Re: salted MD5 / SSL / ??

ok let's be more polite this time.
of course, hash salting is a known technique. its only purpose is to make bruteforcing of a huge number of hash difficult by inserting a nonce. so far so good.
it's still homebrew crypto, as in 'your own implementation'. as you seem to know, algorithms maybe structurally sound on a mathematical PoV, and still friable in their implementation (see : countless example of good algorithms implemented by drunk monkeys)
i maintain that the only way to provide a little assurance about the security of your whole authentication scheme is to use not only well known, well reviewed algorithms, but using this algorithms through well known, well reviewed implementations.
you seem to use the theoritical scheme of the two tokens RSA system (one fixed, one random, concatenation is password). so far so good. how do you synchronise between client side and server side ? do you rely on time for pseudo randomness ? if yes, how do you ensure nanosecond synchronization between client and server. and if not, do you transmit the one time random ? you of course realize that if you were to transmit the nonce over the wire, either from client side or server side, ssl or not, it would be a simple matter to reconstruct and bypass the scheme ?
if the clients generates the nonce, how do you prevent transmission of a null string as a nonce, thus defeating the salting ?
if the server generates the nonce, how do you prevent interception on the client side by eve ?
either you're assuming a secure transport, thus rendering the complexity of this scheme useless, permanent per-user salt storage still defeating precalculated attacks, or you're not assuming that transport is secure, and this scheme is worst than static salt, because of the higher probability of interception and/or alteration by attacker.
my point, expressed politely or not, still holds. assuming that there is no guarantee of secure transport, plaintext, salted hashs won't hold, and assuming there is no secure storage, non-plaintext traditional schemes won't hold.
of course, this is all theoritically speaking, and i have used per-user salt with SHA256 for ages without complaint that the password was stored in weak form. it's all a matter of trust after all.
Those that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Thanks for your considerate reply. My this reply does not portray that I am arguing on anything but it is just a normal discussion.
I could have agreed to your concept of the 'homebrewn cryptology' if you could have given me some logic behind that. Something like "I say it's insecure because it has *this* flaw".
I happily accept the fact that in ideal environments one should implement a well-reviewed, well-implemented and well-tested algorithms. However, practically the invulnerable alternatives can't be overlooked, of course if one uses the patched or flawless versions of the scheme till the point when someone finds a flaw.
I also agree with the fact that if you are using a well-reviewed system, you should implement it in a secure way. If you have reviewed the source code of my implementation (gunwantsingh.blogspot.com), you wouldn't have asked the questions. To answer your questions, see below.
1. how do you synchronise between client side and server side?
- The random salt (nonce) is generated on the server i.e. on a server-side file which is not sent to the client. The random value generated is included in another file which is sent to the client. This salt is valid only for some very little time (if you think this is a flaw, keep on reading) or till the user logs in.
2. if the clients generates the nonce, how do you prevent transmission of a null string as a nonce, thus defeating the salting ?
- the salt is not generated at the client side.
3. if the server generates the nonce, how do you prevent interception on the client side by eve ?
- If the adversary gets the salt during the transmission from the server-side to the client-side, there are 2 possibilities:
* either the legitimate user will log in
* or he won't
* If the user logs in (of course with salted MD5 hashing ON), the salt will be unset after the successful authentication i.e. it would not be valid for any other subsequent transaction, thereby bypassing the replay attacks.
* If the user does not log in (may be because he's suffering from Internet addiction disorder or something)- only the captured salt will have no use to the attacker.
Having said that, I am not saying this is an ideal proposition but this can be implemented in practical terms until someone finds a flaw in it. A flaw - not in the algorithm but the implementation. Of course to further harden the algorithm used we can use SHA-1 , SHA-256, etc as a substitute for the MD5 which is used in the current implementation.
Waiting for the reply.

It is difficult to ascertain what you are trying to say, gunwant. I hope that in the future people replying to this thread will be patient and helpful rather than volatile like that of Malkav.
Firstly, what you've mentioned sounds an awful lot like HMAC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAC). HMAC will ensure that the message is coming from an authentic source and it will also ensure the message has not been tampered with but it will do nothing to protect the message contents itself. With the addition of a timestamp as more salt in the hash, it will also serve as protection from replay attacks.
HMAC is only suitable in situations where the data being transmitted itself is not sensitive, but a secure authorization system is required.
If there was a man-in-the-middle that did obtain the SessionID contained in the cookie, it should be inconsequential as the HMAC procedure (in combination with a username added before/after the hash in plain text) will also identify which trusted source the message is coming from. Even if the man-in-the-middle was a trusted source and he replaced his own SessionID with the one he intercepted from the communications of another trusted source, you would still be able to tell that the SessionID he provided is not his own. Server-side you would need only to associate the username/password with a given SessionID - once the message being sent is verified to be from a trusted source, the next step would be to ensure that the SessionID provided belongs to *that* trusted source.

@ NickWilliams
Thanks for replying.
You said:
"With the addition of a time-stamp as more salt in the hash, it will also serve as protection from replay attacks. "
You mean besides concatenating the salt, I should also append the time-stamp to it before sending the credentials to the server. You don't think it's already mitigating replay attacks. Any scenario you can provide to show how a replay attack can take place w/o the time-stamps appended? I am curious how exactly can time-stamps help me in this scenario?
You also said:
" Server-side you would need only to associate the username/password with a given SessionID - once the message being sent is verified to be from a trusted source, the next step would be to ensure that the SessionID provided belongs to *that* trusted source."
Linking the assigned SID (Session ID) to the credentials is a good idea in case user has to provide the credentials for each page behind authentication. Consider a scenario wherein a user provides his credentials and then the server links a particular SID to his username/password after successful authentication. Subsequently, to access all other pages behind authentication the client only provides *SID* (and no credentials) which is consequently validated at the server-side. If a trusted source captures the SID and tries to access some behind-authentication page (just by replacing his SID with the captured one), don't you think he will definitely be granted access to the other trusted source's page since he don't have to provide his username/password?
>"It is difficult to ascertain what you are trying to say"
In plain words, my little research question is how to secure the *Session credentials* on a non-SSL channel.

I looked over SRP lately and I think its a very good implementation technique for *authentication* purposes (yes, better than salted MD5 apparently) but I am not sure if it will work on a non-SSL session. Meaning: Will it protect against impersonating someone's SID on a non-SSL?
If the adversary imitate the master session key (generated via SRP) to access a behind-authenticated page, what is going to happen? I think SRP provides a good authentication mechanism w/o in relevance to an implementation in an application. I think we can get an answer only after implementing this thing in some application.

Timestamps change on their own, removing the need to invalidate any previous salt used on a message. So long as I couldn't be a man-in-the-middle and resend one of your messages exactly as the client sent it and it be accepted by the service, then you're fine.

If, at any point, you send only the SessionID without message or transport level security then you will be susceptible to forgeries/session hijacking. You will need to perform your hash every time a message is sent. The key to security here is comparing the hash to one you calculate for the given credentials, and then comparing the authenticated username with the SessionID previously assigned to that particular username.

This is for-sure possible. I will assume that you are not talking about a simple web page but instead a thick client and, perhaps, a webservice or similar server side situation. This process should work with a web page and javascript but it's not ideal as the hashing in JS would probably be pretty CPU intense for the client.
Before communications start, the client and server should both have a password relating to the particular client. The client should obtain the password through an out-of-band method such as email, phone, fax, etc. The whole point here is that we're rendering eavesdropping ineffective - not impossible.
The client will first send a message to the server attempting to authenticate/log in. To do this, the client will take the message body it has compiled, a timestamp, and his password and concatenate them together, performing a hash on the resulting string. The client then combines this hash and its username to form the authentication header - such a header might look like this if using SHA1 "ClientUsername:9ce3ea4d6fac2165933b3971e6d5a13753c7d878"
When the server receives this message, it sees that it is ClientUsername who is attempting to authenticate. The server looks up its password on file for this user, and performs the exact same procedure on the client's message that the client did. If the client and server have the same password, and the server's time is equal to that of the client's, then the server should calculate the message's hash to be "9ce3ea4d6fac2165933b3971e6d5a13753c7d878" - if it didn't then the client has the incorrect password and the server should ignore the message entirely or return an exception.
If the hashes did match, then we know it is really ClientUsername, and we generate a SessionID and return it to the client while making note server-side that this SessionID belongs to ClientUsername. From that point forward, the client will be providing its SessionID *in addition to* the authentication header described above.
Now, since we aren't using SSL, a man-in-the-middle could easily obtain the SessionID and the client's username from any of the messages - but since the password is never sent in the message, it can not create an authentic message because its hash would be wrong.
We must also consider a malicious client who does have a valid username/password combination. If you had two clients and one stole the other client's SessionID, it would be able to provide a valid SessionID *and* a valid hash for its message. But, since we are ensuring that the SessionID provided by ClientUsername is actually the SessionID we provided him, we can still throw the message out and remain secure.
If a man-in-the-middle recorded a series of messages and sent them to the server at a later date, the timestamp of the server should be different than the timestamp that the client had when the message was created (and thus the server's calculated hash would not match the one in the message) so we can more or less eliminate the possibility of replay attacks.
This entire process relies on the password never being sent, and the messages being hashed every time they are sent. If either of those change, you can not do things as I've described. Hashing function is up to you and, obviously, you're going to be more secure with SHA256 or the likes than MD5 (I would go with SHA1). This might sound like a lot of CPU work but it is still less than that of SSL and without the hassle of certificate renewals and the likes.

I see what you are saying.
You are saying that the OOB-communicated password, message and the time-stamp are concatenated and hashed each time when the client sends the request. ok.
And if the adversary captures the communication and then replays it later, it won't work because of the time-stamp mismatch.good.
However, one thing that's really bugging me in this technique is that how would you keep track of the time-stamps at the server side i.e. considering the time when time-stamp is concatenated in the formula at the client side and the time it leaves the workstation plus the time it takes to travel across etc. How would you synchronize the timing thing between server and client (if we also consider milliseconds even nanoseconds)?

Synchronization of timestamps is tough. Generally the server and client do some handshaking and the client estimates its latency to adjust the timestamp it sends in an attempt to match the server's. The server also applies a tolerance but, in our situation, this requires additional processing at high cost depending on the resolution of the timestamp (e.g. calculate timestamp for 1 second ago, 2 seconds ago, 150 milliseconds ago, etc) and, as you're alluding to, it's probably not the best choice for our situation.
So long as you're generating something in addition to the password to use as a salt, and so long as the server invalidates that salt as quick as absolutely possible, and so long as an eavesdropper will never be able to obtain this salt, you'll be fine. Remember that we're not guarding against eavesdropping so you don't want to be sending this additional salt to the client. Instead use something agreed upon at design-time. Something such as a sequentially increasing integer of sufficient size never to wrap back to 0 during the course of communication - this is probably your best choice.

I think the solution you mentioned is appropriate if we are considering the stated research question. It has given me another interesting research area on how to implement this technique where we have to put the mentioned methodology into practice besides addressing the time-synchronization issues. Since I've got the idea now, I know how to proceed.
Do you know of any application (web/non-web) already using this technique? For a web application, it is definitely memory intensive, but as you said it can be acknowledged if you are on non-SSL considering other requirements. Not to forget an intensified security and functional review is apparently needed.
Anyway Thanks a Lot for your help. I still seek other ideas if you or anyone wants to share.
Thank you all.

I think the best example is Amazon's Web Services; they utilize HMAC-SHA1 extensively. Their documentation also describes the process thoroughly: http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonS3/2006-03-01/index.html?RESTAuthentication.html
Further, it looks like they transmit the timestamp visibly as well as use it in creating the hash. This will ensure that the timestamp sent by the client is actually authentic (if it was altered, the hash would change). The server can first ensure the hash is authentic, and then examine the plaint-text timestamp and ensure that isn't too far off. I think that's a winning idea for sure to prevent replay attacks.

CHARACTER Michael Toreno | |
Appearance(s): | Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas |
Full name: | Michael Toreno |
Status: | Alive |
Gender: | Male |
Home: | Mike Toreno's Ranch, Tierra Robada |
Nationality: | American |
Main affiliation: | Carl Johnson Sweet Ryder (formerly) Big Smoke's Crack Empire (formerly) T-Bone Mendez (formerly) Jizzy B. (formerly) Loco Syndicate(formerly) Unknown goverment Agency |
Vehicle(s): | Washington Yellow Burrito |
Voiced by: | James Woods |
For the mission see Mike Toreno (mission)
- "You know, I try to set bad people on other bad people and sometimes I let good guys die."
- ―Mike Toreno.
Michael "Mike" Toreno is a character who appears as a main character and a key in GTA San Andreas. He is an undercover agent from a "government agency," unknown, but his later dialogue rules out the FBI. Toreno disguises himself as a drug supplier for the Loco Syndicate. He appears as a main character In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and is voiced by James Woods, who bears some physical resemblance to the character and is better known for his role as "Hades" in the Disney movie "Hercules" and as himself as a recurring antagonist in "Family Guy".
[show]Role in GTA San Andreas
Carl Johnson first sees Mike when he and Cesar do some snooping with a Ballas drug van apparently headed for Angel Pine. When Carl and Cesar arrive at the rendezvous, they witness a meeting between CJ's former friend Ryder and the leading members of a drug cartel known as the Loco Syndicate, Jizzy B., T-Bone Mendez and Toreno himself.
The first time Carl personally meets Toreno is during Carl's brief tenure as Jizzy's hitman, after Toreno is mistakenly abducted by a gang of Da Nang Boys who are stealing one of the syndicate's drug vans with the agent inside. CJ and T-Bone locate the vehicle at the Easter Bay International Airport, and free Toreno. The agent is immediately suspicious of CJ, but T-Bone Mendez convinces Toreno not to shoot him. All three then destroy the van, with the cocaine still inside in order to eliminate any evidence.
Following the death of Jizzy B., the Triads plan to ambush the Syndicate's drug purchase at Pier 69. CJ assists them with a sniper rifle, but Toreno, who arrived by helicopter, notices CJ's victims on top of the pier buildings and aborts his landing. CJ later tracks the chopper to another location and shoots it out of the sky; pressuming that Toreno is dead.
Toreno, however, was never on the helicopter. After the Loco Syndicate plant is destroyed in San Fierro, Toreno goes incognito and, using a digitally-distorted voice, calls CJ to invite him to a secluded ranch in Tierra Robada. Carl is shocked by Toreno's survival, and curses him as a mere drug dealer but Toreno reveals that he is in fact a government agent, and explains that he was distributing the cocaine to raise funds for overseas dictators and "useful" drug suppliers.
Toreno makes Carl an offer: if Carl works for him, taking down enemy agents and sabotaging rival agencies, no harm will come to Carl's brother, Sweet, who is now in prison; Toreno promises that, if CJ does enough work, Sweet will be released early.
Toreno's assignments, which include commandeering a rival agency's truck and shooting down FBI choppers from a plateau, strike CJ as almost impossible.
Later, Toreno sends Carl to purchase the Verdant Meadows Aircraft Graveyard, a defunct landing strip in Bone County, and use the facility to have CJ trained as a pilot. After, he immediately assigns Carl with jobs involving what he had learned from training. One time, he tasks CJ to drop off a package halfway across the state using a plane. At one point, a container jet lands without warning at the airstrip, and men in black suits and sunglasses empty out of it. Toreno instructs CJ to sneak onboard, bomb the plane and parachute back onto land safely.
While Toreno initially dismisses CJ as street trash, and uses Sweet as a bargaining chip to ensure CJ's obedience, his attitude changes as CJ proves his ability to get seemingly impossible jobs done, and he begins to display a sense of camaraderie with CJ, despite still thinking nothing of sending him on dangerous errands. After a lengthy hiatus, Toreno eventually returns and gives CJ one last job; he personally drives CJ to Easter Basin, and sends him to infiltrate an aircraft carrier and steal a V/STOL fighter jet. CJ successfully takes the jet, shoots down enemy planes and takes out several boats at the Sherman Reservoir; Carl is then exasperated with the danger he has been exposed to, and his rage only increases when Toreno leaves him to deal with the burden of the stolen jet.
Toreno shows up unannounced yet again in the mission Home Coming, and tells Carl that he has one more mission. CJ snaps and holds a gun to Toreno's face, but Toreno is unperturbed; he tells CJ that the "mission" is simply to pick up Sweet — Toreno has seen to his early release from prison. CJ goes to pick up his brother and Toreno makes no further appearances in the game.
Philosophically, Toreno is a highly cynical American imperialist. He primarily uses CJ as a courier, saboteur, and assassin. Though he knows of Tenpenny and Pulaski's dirty dealings, Toreno does not use his power to stop them — he tells CJ in one mission, "we have to make decisions, kid. You know, I try to set bad people on other bad people. And sometimes, I let good guys die." Toreno, like Tenpenny, seems to have gravitated toward committing heinous acts in the name of a greater good, but unlike Tenpenny, Toreno is not corrupted by his power. He equates maintenance of the American socioeconomic system with the continued survival of the free world. Toreno, like many major characters of San Andreas, appears in The Introduction.
Mission appearances
- GTA San Andreas
- The Introduction
- Photo Opportunity
- Jizzy (Photo)
- Mike Toreno
- Outrider
- Pier 69
- Toreno's Last Flight (Thought to be killed)
- Yay Ka-Boom-Boom (Post-mission phone call)
- Monster (Voice/Boss)
- Highjack (Boss)
- Interdiction (Boss)
- Verdant Meadows (Boss)
- Learning to Fly (Voice/Boss)
- N.O.E. (Boss)
- Stowaway (Boss)
- Vertical Bird (Boss)
- Home Coming (Boss)
- In missions, the number plate on Toreno's Washington says "OMEGA". The Washington parked at his ranch always has a random plate number.
- The U.L. Paper Contact in Grand Theft Auto IV could be consider a counter part to Toreno as both have the same personality, both force the main characters of their stories to do dirty and dangerous jobs for them (Carl Johnson forced by Toreno, while Niko was forced by the U.L. Paper Contact).
- Due to his involvement in Latin American politics and cocaine trafficking, it is likely that the agency he's representing is based on the CIA set during the Contra war in Nicaragua.
- His texture names are torino.txd and torino.dff, hinting that his beta name could be Mike Torino or it's just a missspeling.

When assembling your Smart Shelves, a rubber mallet can come in handy, but it can be down without any tools at all. Watch an example below on how easy Smart Shelves are to assemble and reconfigure.
About The Manufacturer
Smart Furniture was originally imagined in the mid 1990s by our founder and chairman Stephen Culp, a Naval Reserve Officer, attorney, and former Peace Corps Volunteer. At the time, Culp was a law student at Stanford Law School. The idea for the company came during a visit he made to Yahoo! during its startup years. The incredible growth Yahoo! was experiencing made it difficult for the company to keep up with the constantly changing need for space reconfiguration.Culp realized that people needed an easily adaptable furniture system that allowed them to reconfigure spaces to their changing needs. In a small workshop in a professor's garage, he set out to create a furniture system that was both simple to assemble and easy to reconfigure as needed. He succeeded and received a patent on his Signature Line system.
By 1998, Smart Furniture was up and running in Palo Alto, California. Smart Furniture relocated to Chattanooga, Tennessee in 2001, where Culp expanded the company and founded a local manufacturing, warehouse, and shipment distribution system for the company's Signature Line products.
Along the way, Culp's experience in the Peace Corps provided a founding principle of Smart Furniture: Help people help themselves. This simple but effective principle was the basis for a business model he called Design on Demand. Smart Furniture's Design on Demand model was created to give both residential and business customers the opportunity to design their own spaces and customize furniture products to their needs, quickly and easily.
The next step was to make the model come alive through technology on our website, Smartfurniture.com. Our website's designer tool, free 3-D renderings, and integrated Google Sketchup technologies combined empower our customers to design, order, and receive everything from individual units to interior layouts, quickly and easily.
The result was a revolutionary solution incorporating state-of-the-art design, e-commerce and fulfillment capabilities that can deliver orders from concept to customer within a week. Such a short turnaround time is unheard of in the furniture industry.
