text: UK Domain Registrar Targeted by Mass Injection AttackSecurity firm Sucuri (providing web integrity monitoring solutions and operating a website malware scanner) has reported of a new mass injection attack that infected a considerable number of websites harbored at 123-reg.co.uk, one of the biggest domain providers in the UK. Malicious code embedded in these websites directs visitors to scareware. The company, in the past few days, has found a large number of websites compromised with the same code used to inject a malicious java script on many websites harbored at Go Daddy. All of them include a java script loading malware (the famous fake AV) from: http://meqashopperinfo.com/js.php,http://meqashoppercom.com/js.php, http://meqashopperonline.com/js.php, and http://www4.in-scale-feed.in. All the websites affected till now include the following code attached to all PHP files: "eval (base64_decode ("aWYoZnVuY3Rpb....". The attack redirects users of the compromised websites to a scareware page that impersonates an anti-virus scan and displays fake alerts regarding malware infections on their machines. The objective of this trick is to scam users into downloading and installing a rouge anti-virus program that further attacks users' machine with several fake alerts and warnings to persuade them to buy a license. Users who purchase the license will not only pay a great amount for a worthless application, but will also compromise their credit card details in the procedure. Remarkably, the domain meqashopperinfo.com (220.127.116.11, 188.8.131.52) is not blacklisted. Hence, it has the ability to infect a very large number of computers, particularly the ones with outmoded AV signatures and definitions. Interestingly, in this attack as well, domain is registered by the same people responsible for the past attacks at BlueHost, GoDaddy, etc (Hillary Kneber). Hillary Kneber is a famous fake identity used to register domains for conducting malicious activities later on. According to the experts, attack doesn't indicate towards a flaw in its infrastructure. This normally occurs because attackers utilize automated tools to scan complete blocks of IP addresses for vulnerable websites and then infect them all simultaneously. Further, security experts have cautioned that cybercriminals will continue to become more complicated in terms of their compromising techniques. Thus, web users and businesses should make themselves aware of the safe security practices to protect themselves against these attacks.

Title: | The New SI: The Role of CODATA |
Published: | December 01, 2011 |
Abstract: | The mission of the International Council for Science : Committee on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA ) is to strengthen international science for the benefit of society by promoting improved scientific and technical data management and use. One of their most visible outputs comes from the Working Group on Fundamental Physical Constants, who periodically perform a comprehensive least squares adjustment and produce the well-known and widely cited publication entitled "Internationally recommended values of the Fundamental Physical Constants" (freely available at http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/constants). When the proposed changes to the International System of Units (SI) to use fixed values for some fundamental constants take effect in the coming years, it will be the responsibility of this CODATA Working Group to provide the final values for Planck's constant, h, Avogadro's constant, NA, the fundamental electronic charge, e, and the Boltzmann constant, k, that will be used. In this presentation, the least squares adjustment procedure will be outlined and illustrated with reference to the current state-of-the- art measurements in several physical disciplines. |

This paper reports the findings of a survey designed to capture the 'real world' experiences of people active in project management. The survey took the form of a questionnaire that was sent to 995 Project Managers and which achieved a response rate of 23.7%. Each respondent was asked to describe a recent project and identify factors that were regarded as critical to that project's outcome. The extent to which the project gave rise to side-effects was explored and particular emphasis was placed on the use that had been made of any of the many project management methods, tools and techniques that are available. Respondents were also asked to judge the effectiveness of the methods, tools and techniques they had used and to report any limitations or drawbacks they had encountered. The results showed that most respondents used only a small number of methods, tools and techniques with project management software and Gantt charts being the most widely used aids. Almost half of the respondents reported drawbacks to the methods, tools and techniques they had employed. The criteria for judging project success most cited in the project management literature (on time; to budget; and to specification) were the criteria used by the respondents to judge their projects' success. However, two further criteria were reported as being of particular relevance. These were both concerned with the consequences of the project on the organisation involve. In contrast to the finding of many surveys of project success rates, a remarkably high proportion (41%) of the projects reported upon here were judged to be completely successful, though it should be noted that the judgements were made by Project Managers who had worked on the projects being judged.

Physiological correlates of memory recall in infancy: vagal tone, cortisol, and imitation in preterm and full-term infants at 6 months. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 20189251 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
We examined the role of physiological regulation (heart rate, vagal tone, and salivary cortisol) in short-term memory in preterm and full-term 6-month-old infants. Using a deferred imitation task to evaluate social learning and memory recall, an experimenter modeled three novel behaviors (removing, shaking, and replacing a glove) on a puppet. Infants were tested immediately after being shown the behaviors as well as following a 10-min delay. We found that greater suppression of vagal tone was related to better memory recall in full-term infants tested immediately after the demonstration as well as in preterm infants tested later after a 10-min delay. We also found that preterm infants showed greater coordination of physiology (i.e., tighter coupling of vagal tone, heart rate, and cortisol) at rest and during retrieval than full-term infants. These findings provide new evidence of the important links between changes in autonomic activity and memory recall in infancy. They also raise the intriguing possibility that social learning, imitation behavior, and the formation of new memories are modulated by autonomic activity that is coordinated differently in preterm and full-term infants. |

J.G. Farrell: In His Own Words edited by Lavinia Greacen: Monday 8th - Friday 12th August 2011
These letters and diary extracts, selected by Lavinia Greacen, are at times funny, teasing, anxious and ambitious. As a correspondent he was both direct and diverting.
Jim Farrell, as his friends knew him, was born in Liverpool in 1935 and when his parents moved to Ireland in his youth, he spent a considerable amount of time in this country.
He wrote majestic novels such as "Troubles" and "The Siege of Krishnapur", but this book allows a glimpse of the man himself. His tragic death in 1979 robbed the world of a major writer.

The recent U.N. report that Iran may have enough nuclear material to build an atomic bomb is causing concern in Germany -- not over an Islamic bomb, but over the risk of tougher U.N. sanctions.

The German-Iranian Chamber of Commerce sponsored a seminar this week in Hamburg entitled "Iran Sanctions -- Practical Consequences for German Companies." The session was designed to help firms in "these difficult times" -- a reference to U.N. trade sanctions, not the global economy. Speakers included Sabine Hummerich from Bank Melli, Iran's largest bank. In June, the European Union froze Bank Melli's assets because of its ties to Tehran's nuclear program and barred dealings with the bank. This didn't stop organizers from inviting Ms. Hummerich to lecture about the "Financial Transaction of Iranian Business Deals."
As Europe's largest exporter to Iran, Germany has unique leverage over the regime. But Berlin refuses to use it. German exports to Iran are up 14.1% in the first seven months of this year. The Islamic Republic is so popular in Germany that another group, Management Circle, is planning a two-day crash course next month in Frankfurt. The program lists seven reasons for doing business with Iran, including "traditional good economic and political relations with Germany."
Readers may recall that Barack Obama assailed President Bush for not doing more diplomatically to contain Iran, including more vigorous sanctions. Job one on that score for Mr. Obama would seem to be persuading his many admirers in Germany. Good luck.

White Villages & Countryside
Drive through Cádiz and take in the most important monuments and places of the city, which your guide will point out. At the beautiful village of Vejer de la Frontera, you'll have some time to explore on foot the hilly cobblestone streets, hidden patios and typical houses. Free time will be allocated so you can shop for souvenirs or try some of the local specialties (at your own expense). Re-boarding the coach, you will take the scenic Atlantic Route, packed with stunning countryside scenery, passing by the La Brena Nature Park, a protected pine forest that offers impressive views from its cliff tops up to 300 feet tall. Time and traffic permitting, you'll stop for photos at Trafalgar Cape lighthouse, where the famous and infamous Battle of Trafalgar took place in 1805. The Franco-Spanish troops fought against the English side led by Lord Horatio Nelson in an encounter that ended in English victory and the death of hundreds of soldiers. This route leads to Conil de la Frontera—a city between forests of pine groves and the sea. It is a typical Andalusian town where Arabian influence is evident in the narrow streets and low white houses. Its courtyards and small squares attract legions of visitors who come to enjoy the beaches and the surf of Cabo Roche, and to taste local specialties such as the pescaito. Enjoy some free time there before you drive back to Cádiz and the ship. |

Title: Understanding and Measuring Bicycling Behavior: A Focus on Travel Time and Route Choice
Accession Number: 01122619
Record Type: Monograph
Record URL: Record URL: Availability: Oregon Transportation Research and Education Consortium Portland State University, P.O. Box 751 Abstract: With rates of obesity, heart disease, and related health problems increasing in the U.S. , many policy makers are looking for ways to increase physical activity in everyday life. Using a bicycle instead of a motor vehicle for a portion of everyday travel could help address these problems. This research aims to fill a gap in the existing literature on the effect of different types of infrastructure, such as bicycle lanes or paths, on bicycling. The project used global positioning system (GPS) technology to record where a sample of 164 adults in the Portland, OR region rode their bicycles. Data were collected from March through November 2007. The participants in this study were primarily regular bicyclists who usually rode more than one day per week, year-round. This report uses those data to address the four primary sets of research questions: (1) How often, why, when, and where do cyclists ride? How does this vary based upon rider characteristics? (2) How do cyclists' routes differ from the shortest network distance? (3) What factors influence cyclists' route choice decisions? How do personal attributes influence these decisions? (4) What is the difference in travel time between bicycling and driving?
Supplemental Notes: This research was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Transportation, University Transportation Centers Program.

Hop the red Culture Trolley, or better, walk the streets of Pelham, and experience ArtsFest 2013! September 28 and 29, the iconic red Culture Trolley will travel back and forth between Pelham and New Rochelle, stopping at key arts venues, and illuminating the best in arts and culture in both towns from 12:30-5PM.
This is the second year that ArtsFest, run by New Rochelle Council on the Arts and which attracts about 2,000 visitors, comes to Pelham; offering a weekend of free arts events that includes exhibits and performances with fine art and photography, dance, music, crafts and more. ArtsFest was enthusiastically supported by the Village Board when proposed by Pelham Art Center. Thanks to Community Sponsors Hooperstown and Homeowners-Senerchia-Bosco; Media Sponsor Pelham Weekly, and Supporter Sponsors Bistro Rollin and The Picture House, ArtsFest will once again make Pelham an arts destination.
Pelham Art Center will feature music and art all weekend long. Saturday an all-girls bluegrass band, Small Talk, will play from 2-3PM; followed by the American roots band, Cornell Brothers, from 4-5PM. On Sunday the popular Westchester Harp Ensemble, directed by Lois Colin, returns to the Pelham Art Center from 1-2PM, followed by the country trio King, from 3-4PM, and ending with Paul Ryan and Jim Greene playing acoustic guitar and upright bass from 4-5PM.
This year's ArtsFest in Pelham features Open Studios at Highbrook Studios with artists John Mignault, Victoria Rolett, Kathy Rutsch and Scott Seaboldt. Nearby you will find a fascinating Pelham Highline information and display area. Don't miss the ballet or opera film at The Picture House. Open Studios at Domenica Comfort Photograph Studio will highlight photos of Gallo Mattese by Domenica Comfort and ceramic art by Susan Nathenson. An exciting addition to ArtsFest 2013 will be artists showcasing and selling their works on Wolf's Lane Green on Sunday. Many restaurants and businesses will offer specials and discounts to people enjoying ArtsFest. This year's festival promises an array of culturally stimulating events geared toward various ages and interests all throughout New Rochelle and Pelham, with most of the sites offering free admission.
ArtsFest is the flagship event for NRCA, an organization devoted to inspiring community participation in the performing and fine arts for more than 30 years. Pelham Art Center has been collaborating with NRCA to bring this successful celebration of the arts to Pelham.

In the online mode, only racing and freestyle games may be played, which is a shame as hockey is arguably the best multiplayer mode. This could possibly change due to the online nature of the game, but it's not currently there. Only having two modes left me wishing for more. Another caveat: You can play online or you can play multiplayer with your friends, but not both at the same time. In other words, for every PS2 playing online, there's only one player online as well.
Playing over my cable modem connection, broadband went seamlessly. I experienced no lag whatsoever and only had problems when the host of the game got dropped. My PS2 even froze once, but other than that, there were no major problems. Finding games is a snap, though most of the time I played there were only about 20 games or so going on. That's around 80 people max. And since there's no joining a game once it has started, you may be waiting to be setup with other players for a while, even if you choose to host your own game.
The biggest problem with the multiplayer mode is the profile points. You can earn enough profile points to buy the most expensive ATV in the game and crush everyone. That alone would seem to make the single-player experience worthwhile. However, after just getting the game, I noticed that most online players had the best ATV and were constantly lapping me even though I was driving pretty well. There is a cheat code that unlocks everything, even for multiplayer. If you're a newbie who doesn't know about that code, you're not going to win online. If you've gone through the single-player mode to earn all the profile points you can, you'll feel cheated that someone could just enter in a code to get where you are.
The online aspect of ATV2 is really its selling point. The graphics have gotten just a little bit more detailed, but the game essentially looks identical to its predecessor. The environments are painstakingly stagnant, where even birds flying by just don't make it feel alive. There's just not a lot going on, and there's nothing at all to break or interact with, other than dirt.
The sound is very good, with engines "vrooming" everywhere. The music is king, though, with awesome tracks by Cypress Hill, Alien Ant Farm, Garbage, System of a Down, Korn and Coolio, among many others. In fact, the soundtrack may be better than the game itself.
If you own the original ATV Offroad Fury, other than hockey mode, there's not much to recommend here unless you absolutely loved the original. If you've gotten the PS2 Network Adaptor, then you may be interested in playing online, but since online play isn't as good as playing with some friends through a Multitap, you won't be compelled to keep signing on. Still, there's plenty to do and tons to unlock if you don't use the code, that is.

As a result of a generous donation from the Casey Feldman Memorial Foundation, three students on the Fordham Observer staff had the opportunity to attend the Associated Collegiate Press' (ACP's) 26th annual National College Journalism Convention in Phoenix, Arizona from February 25 – 28, 2010. Stefanie Wheeler, Assistant Online Editor, Anndrew Vacca, News Editor, and Liz Bowen, Opinions Co-Editor, were the recipients of the funds. They attended the conference along with Assistant Features Editors Beata Cherapakhina and Faith Heaphy, whose trips were funded through the Observer.
The Associated Collegiate Press (ACP), is the oldest and largest national membership organizations for college student journalists with more than 20,000 students staffing ACP college member publications. This year's four day convention in Phoenix consisted of idea-packed keynotes, breakout sessions, workshops, displays and critiques from some of the best journalists, advisors and students in the country. It ended Sunday with the presentation of the Best of Show Awards. This year, the Observer won second place for Best of Show for a four-year college, non-weekly newspaper, and first place in the multimedia package category. Out of an entire nation of college newspapers – way to go Fordham Observer!
All of the students expressed their gratitude to the Foundation for the opportunity to attend the convention. According to one of those students, Stephanie Wheeler, "I cannot begin to describe how inspirational, educational, and uplifting the Associated Collegiate Press Journalism Conference in Phoenix was this past weekend. I am so blessed and grateful….Without your help, I would not have been able to afford the expenses on my own. The trip was a reconfirmation that I am pursuing a career in a field that I feel extremely passionate about. I had the opportunity to learn from some of the most honorable and innovative professionals in the Journalism field and I have taken back with me a handful of learning tools that will be beneficial to me in my future endeavors as well as to others who I plan to share my newfound knowledge with….I will never forget everything I learned about journalism and myself…."
Intent on pursuing a career in Journalism, Casey joined The Observer soon after arriving at Fordham University, getting her first news bylines as a freshman, becoming an assistant news editor as a sophomore and news editor as a junior. She was returning as news editor for her senior year at the time of her accident in July 2009. Casey was one of the students who was able to attend the ACP convention in San Francisco in February 2008 as a sophomore.
Ashley WennersHerron, currently Editor- in- Chief of the Observer, who attended the conference with Casey, recalled the group joking in San Francisco about the abundance of complimentary coffee. "It was like all of the students were competing to drink more coffee in order to be more 'journalistic,'" Ashley said. In typical Casey fashion, she used her acting chops to expertly imitate a caffeinated reporter trying to conduct an interview.
According to Dianne Anderson, Casey's mother, "I remember how honored and excited Casey was when she was told that she was chosen to attend the conference and what a rewarding experience it turned out to be for her. Casey was extremely proud of the fact The Observer won first place in "Best of Show" that year for a four-year college, non-weekly newspaper. She was really disappointed that she and all Observer staff members could not attend annually because of limited funding. We knew immediately when we established the Foundation that Casey would be so pleased if we could enable more students to benefit from attending this outstanding annual conference."
Give other deserving young people opportunities and contribute to the Casey Feldman Memorial Foundation . Go to the Memories site and read Casey's articles published in the Fordham Observer. See more photographs from Casey's 2008 San Francisco trip with the Observer.

So I spent what appears to be my last day on snow at Squaw on Saturday. It was the perfect way to end an outstanding season. I was trying front 7's all day and came very close to landing a front 9. It was so sunny and warm. I'm bummed to be off snow, I miss it already!
Kelly Marren: The Closure of a Memorable 2010 Season
The Olympic Spirit swept the snowboarding community this season, making me and so many others deeply proud to be citizens of the USA! I was delighted to be a part of the mayhem -- qualifying to compete in all five Grand Prix Olympic Qualifier Stops. After the team was selected in Park City, I had the opportunity to head to to Vancouver to cheer on my teammates who made the final Olympic cut. In addition to attending the men and women's Halfpipe Comps, I got see Apolo Ono won his first Speed Skating medal of the games and cheer Seth Wescott and Nate Holland on in the BoarderCross finals.
USASA Nationals Update from Mike and Mimi
Hey everyone! We just finished our two days of racing here at Copper on Tuesday, and we both had an awesome time despite dealing with some nasty weather. On Monday we raced Slalom and each finished with a silver medal and $1000 in prize money! Not too shabby!! Tuesday's GS was a bit more rough though unfortunately. Mimi wasn't able to race do to a concussion, and Mike had to deal with a nasty cold on top of some crazy cold, snowy and ridiculously windy weather and ended up finishing 7th respectively.

Today's weather was amazing; about 35 and generally sunny the entire day! It was perfect conditions for both free-riding and competing alike. Thus, open class and PacSun Team riders had an awesome day in the halfpipe this afternoon. The PacSun Team women cleaned house with Kelly Marren taking 1st place and Jenna Dramise taking 2nd. Faye Gulini took 5th place Mikaela Casey ended up in 7th. Kelly received an additional award at the end of the day—Cholula's Hot Trick of the Day! From Kelly: "It was a great event today. It was so good to see that the weather held up and that the girls were pushing the limits of their riding."

Elizabeth Eastlake
Elizabeth, Lady Eastlake (17 November 1809 – 2 October 1893), born Elizabeth Rigby, was a British author, art critic and art historian who was the first woman to write regularly for the Quarterly Review. She is known not only for her writing, but also for her significant role in the London art world while her husband, Sir Charles Eastlake, was director of the National Gallery there.
She was born in Norwich into the large family of Edward Rigby and his wife Anne. Her father was a physician who was also a classical scholar, and Elizabeth's parents included her in their social life and conversation with prominent citizens and intellectuals.
Elizabeth Rigby was fond of drawing from a young age and continued studying art into her twenties. She was privately educated, and learnt French and Italian, but after an illness in 1827 she was sent to convalesce in Germany and Switzerland. She stayed two years, and started a lifetime of publication with a translation of Passavant's essay on English art; a second trip to Germany in 1835 led to an article on Goethe. After travelling to Russia and Estonia to visit a married sister, her published letters, and her travel book A Residence on the Shores of the Baltic (1841) led to an invitation to write for the Quarterly Review by the editor, J. G. Lockhart.
In 1842 the widowed Anne Rigby moved with her daughters to Edinburgh where Elizabeth's literary career brought entry to an intellectual social circle including prominent figures like Lord Jeffrey, John Murray and David Octavius Hill who photographed her in a series of about 20 early calotypes, assisted by Robert Adamson. In 1857 she would publish an essay on the relationship between art and photography, showing she was knowledgeable about the "new and mysterious art" and discussing its strengths and weaknesses.
Despite a diary entry in 1846 saying there were many "compensations" for unmarried women, three years later when she was 40, Elizabeth married Sir Charles Eastlake and joined him in an active working and social life, entertaining artists like Landseer and mixing with a wide range of well-known people, from Macaulay to Lady Lovelace. Lady Eastlake's habit of continental travel continued through the 1850s and 1860s as she and her husband toured several European countries in search of new acquisitions for the gallery.
She continued to write prolifically, helping to popularise German art history in England, both as critic, and as translator (Waagen and Kugler). Sometimes she collaborated with her husband, and wrote a memoir of him after his death in 1865. Italian art also absorbed her attention. Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Titian, Raphael and Dürer were the subjects of her Five Great Painters (1883), published ten years before she died.
In the 20th century she was mostly remembered for her scathing review of Jane Eyre, of which she strongly disapproved. She is also known for her attacks on Ruskin, assumed to be linked to her role as confidante to his estranged wife Effie. According to historian Rosemary Mitchell, however, her work as art historian and writer was significant and original. Mitchell considers Eastlake to have been a scholarly and perceptive critic, and a pioneer of female journalism. (ODNB)

The Jewish Council for Racial Equality has welcomed the government's decision to allow hundreds of the "most vulnerable" Syrian refugees to come to Britain, but says more can still be done.
JCore director Edie Friedman said: "This is an important, positive move. We welcome the fact that some people will now be allowed to come to the country."
Home Secretary Theresa May announced on Wednesday the government's U-turn, after suggesting earlier in the week that the UK would not implement a resettlement programme.
It followed a national campaign urging the government to open Britain's doors to refugees from the Syrian civil war. Last week, Dr Friedman accompanied four rabbis to Downing Street, where they delivered a petition signed by 630 people.
Mrs May told the House of Commons on Wednesday: "The government will be launching a new programme to provide emergency sanctuary in the UK for displaced Syrians who are particularly vulnerable."
Labour MPs questioned why the government had chosen to run its own resettlement programme rather than take part in the scheme run by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, as other EU countries have done.
Dr Friedman echoed these concerns: "We would want to urge the government to be absolutely open-minded and flexible about the need to take in more refugees."
