Jardim: The best team lost
Fiorentina enjoying Serie A and Europa League adventure under Paulo Sousa
By definition, the Europa League is a tournament for also-rans -- but Basel's 2-2 draw with Fiorentina on Thursday night felt like an exception.
Basel are already seven points clear at the top of the Swiss league, while Fiorentina's fine start means they're currently joint-second in Serie A. This was a meeting between two title challengers and there was an obvious link between them.
Paulo Sousa won the Swiss Super League with Basel last season, his second consecutive league victory, having won the...

The Dortmund boss, however, could not fault Hummels for his display...

In .net 1.1 (although this should be fixed in .net 2.0 beta 2) the VScroll event is not fired when someone clicks and drags the thumbnail thingy on the scroll bar up and down, only when you click on the up and down arrows. This is extremely annoying if you are wanting to do things when the RichTextBox scrolls. I have included here my cobbled together RichTextBox which does a bunch of these things. I have taken some of this code from other blog sites, and some of it I wrote myself.
So this RichTextBox implements these extensions:
This should work in .net framework v2.0 beta2 and onwards correctly, or at least it should according to the bug I filed. So you will not need to do this in newer versions of the framework, however this is a useful demonstration of how to override the things inside RichTextBox.
To find the details of the messages and how to use them, msdn is quite useful. The links to details of the WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL event is available on msdn.
To find the actual numbers to use for these events inside your c# code, you need to search using google or look inside your your visual studio code to find the includes for windows. Inside this header file you can find the #define that is used for the WM_VSCROLL and all the other associated things, like SB_ENDSCROLL. You then define all of these as constants inside c# and use them when referencing the specific messages.

Week 12 brings some difficult decisions that could make or break some fantasy teams' playoff hopes, thanks to some real-life roster churn. (UPDATED: Martellus Bennett's injury creates an opportunity for one player. See below under "Sleepers.")

The Cardinals have beaten up on a trio of bad teams in the Falcons, Texans and Jaguars to improve to 6-4, so it's hard to tell if they are for real or not. This weekend's game against the Colts will be revealing.

Part I described the practical and ethical challenge of climate change. Chapter 1 summarised how global warming and climate change will become growing problems in the future, with the adverse impacts being felt most severely by those countries and people least responsible for causing them. Chapter 2 briefly examined how ethics and justice have become important in world affairs. Drawing on several accounts of justice, it showed how climate change is a profound matter of international and indeed global justice – or, more appropriately, injustice. Part II looked at justice in the context of international environmental agreements and regimes. Chapter 3 described the evolution of international environmental justice, which has been applied by states in the context of climate change because international justice has been perceived to be necessary for garnering the widest possible collective international action to limit global warming and to deal with its effects. As summarised in Chapter 4, governments have generally agreed on the importance of overarching justice principles, notably common but differentiated responsibility. However, the implementation of international climate justice by states has fallen far short of what is required ethically and practically, failing to address climate change in a robust way. Indeed, greenhouse gas emissions and the pace of climate change are increasing markedly. Taken together, the chapters in Part II located the failure of the climate change regime largely in its preoccupation with the rights and duties of sovereign states, and the consequent tragedy of the atmospheric commons resulting from the short-sighted logic of perceived national interests.
With that tragedy in mind, I have argued that there is a crucial practical role for world ethics in the international response to climate change. An approach to the problem based on world ethics and global justice may be much more politically viable than current practice. This is

NRL 2004 SEASON REVIEWS ? Sydney Roosters
THE Sydney Roosters were renowned as the benchmark in 2004 in so many ways. They continued to set the standard in defence, with their fast moving defensive structure helping them concede the fewest points in the NRL. They were the benchmark off the field as well, setting the standard in astute recruitment of players and coaching staff. They also enhanced their reputation as a club opposition fans love to hate. Their record breaking Jersey Flegg side went through 2004 unbeaten and the Roosters also won the Premier League competition.

Recommendations include creating better connections to the Capital Crescent Trail, restoring the Willett Branch stream and encouraging revitalization of older retail areas
SILVER SPRING, MD –The Montgomery County Planning Department, part of The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, has completed the Working Draft of the Westbard Sector Plan for presentation to the Montgomery County Planning Board on Thursday, July 16.
The Board's public hearing about the Westbard Sector Plan is tentatively scheduled for Thursday, September 24, pending its approval of the Working Draft at the July 16 meeting. The community will be invited to comment on the Westbard Sector Plan recommendations at the September 24 public hearing held at the Planning Department headquarters (8787 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring, MD).
View the Westbard Sector Plan Working Draft.
The new Sector Plan builds on the assess of Westbard by offering ways to improve its retail and light industrial areas, housing choices and open spaces over the next 20 years. Recommendations in the Plan focus on:
-Encouraging more housing choices and revitalizing older retail areas.
-Emphasizing low-scale development at five to seven stories.
-Preserving local light industrial uses.
-Restoring the Willett Branch stream as a public amenity.
-Creating better access to the Capital Crescent Trail.
-Establishing new gathering spaces and parks.
-Enhancing walkability with sidewalks shaded by street trees.
Since the PlanWestbard charrette, a weeklong brainstorming session held in November 2014, planners have been revising the Sector Plan to address community concerns. Refinements include revisions to heights for new buildings, more open spaces and bike paths, and placemaking strategies, including signage and public art, related to Westbard's rich history.
Learn more about the development of the Westbard Sector Plan.
After the Board's public hearing in September, the plan will be revised through work sessions with the Planning Board before the final draft of the Westbard Sector Plan is presented to the County Council for approval. Council action is anticipated in spring 2016.
Initial planning effort focuses on the area surrounding the future Corridor Cities Transitway.
Silver Spring, MD – The Montgomery County Planning Department, part of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC), hosted a community meeting on Monday, April 20 from 7-9 p.m. at the Johns Hopkins Montgomery County Campus to kick off an update to the Bicycle Master Plan, particularly as it relates to the planned Corridor Cities Transitway, a 15-mile bus rapid transit line extending from Shady Grove to Clarksburg.
At the meeting, County planners explained that they will be focusing on the areas surrounding the future Corridor Cities Transitway over the next few months to ensure the latest thinking in bicycle planning is reflected in the many projects now underway in the area. The goal is to develop a regional bikeway network plan for the Great Seneca Science Corridor area to maximize the coordination, connectivity and effectiveness among the various transportation modes.
The Master Plan will recommend ways of providing access by bike to Phase 1 of the Corridor Cities Transitway, extending from the Shady Grove Metrorail Station to Metropolitan Grove. This planning work will be coordinated with the Life Science Center Loop and future development applications reviewed by the Montgomery County Planning Board.
The Life Sciences Center Loop is being proposed as a shared-use path, following recommendations in the Great Seneca Science Corridor Master Plan. A critical piece of the non-auto transportation and recreation infrastructure, the LSC Loop connects the districts and destinations within the Life Sciences Center to each other and to the surrounding communities. A design is being created for the LSC Loop that will elevate the facility from a simple asphalt path to a distinctive placemaking feature that encourages non-auto commuting and healthy exercise, and helps provide connections to the Corridor Cities Transitway stations within the LSC.
At the April 20 meeting, planners discussed the methods being used to develop and evaluate different types of bikeways being considered for the Bicycle Master Plan. Part of this effort involves gaining a better understanding of cyclists' needs by studying the stresses imposed on cyclists by motorized traffic on road segments, intersection approaches and intersections. To do this, planners are using an analytic tool set forth in a 2012 report from San Jose State University's Mineta Transportation Institute that analyzes the causes of these stresses, including higher volume and higher speed traffic, frequent parking turnover and bicyclists' experiences in crossing major roads at intersections.
An initial analysis of the Life Sciences Center Area found that for cyclists who can tolerate high stress, the entire road network, minus the interstates, is available to them. The bicycling network for low and very low stress-tolerating groups, however, is more limited and disjointed, and includes residential streets and higher volumes streets with separated bikeways. These low stress-tolerating groups account for about 60 percent of the County's population and would be unlikely to bicycle to many of the planned CCT stations without a network of separated bikeways, so planners are looking into ways of creating such a system.
Starting July 1, 2015, the comprehensive update to the Bikeways Master Plan will be launched for the entire County. The planning process will provide ample opportunities for the community to get involved and offer feedback. Check out the Bicycle Planning web page to learn more.

Bicycle Master Plan Preview Kicks Off With April 20 Meeting at JHU Montgomery County Campus
Community invited to learn about the upcoming Bicycle Master Plan beginning with a special focus on the Corridor Cities Transitway station areas.
Silver Spring, MD – The Montgomery County Planning Department, part of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC) is hosting a community meeting on Monday, April 20 from 7-9 p.m. at the Johns Hopkins Montgomery County Campus (9601 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850; Academic and Research Building, Room 106-110) to kick off the update to the Bicycle Master Plan as it relates to the planned Corridor Cities Transitway.
At the April 20 meeting, planners will present their approach to the plan, milestones of the process and provide opportunities to give feedback and engage in person and online. RSVPs are encouraged but not required.
RSVP today for the April 20 meeting.
Planners will work from April 2015 until July 1, 2015 on developing a high-quality bicycle network that facilitates access to the planned Corridor Cities Transitway stations from the surrounding communities and ensures coordination and compatibility with the Life Science Center Loop, an off-road trail currently under design by the Planning Department. The goal is to develop a regional bicycle network plan for the Greater Seneca Science Corridor area to maximize the effectiveness of transportation systems currently being planned, and to coordinate these efforts with the City of Rockville and City of Gaithersburg.
Review a map of the Montgomery County Bicycle Master Plan CCT Phase 1 Corridor special focus area.
Starting July 1, 2015, the comprehensive update to the Bikeways Master Plan will be launched to consider the County's complete bicycle networks and recommendations for access and mobility. The planning process will provide ample opportunities for the community to get involved and offer feedback. Check out the Bicycle Planning web page to learn more.
What is the Bicycle Master Plan all about? Why do we need to revise it?
The goal is to develop a high quality, low stress bicycling network in Montgomery County. The Bicycle Master Plan, first created in 1978, has been subsequently revised in area master plans with the last comprehensive update to the Bicycle Master Plan completed in 2005.
The newest changes to the Plan will focus on the Greater Seneca Science Corridor because development is poised to happen soon in that area. By planning for a high quality bike network now, a higher quality of life will be an option for the Montgomery County community. The Bicycle Master Plan aims to make bicycling a viable option for everyone in the County.
What is the Corridor Cities Transitway? How does it relate to bicycling?
The Corridor Cities Transitway (CCT) is a 15-mile bus rapid transit (BRT) line operating from the COMSAT facility near Clarksburg to the Shady Grove Metrorail Station. The first phase of the project is 9 miles from Metropolitan Grove to Shady Grove, and is currently proceeding with engineering and environmental analysis. The second phase would extend from Metropolitan Grove to the COMSAT facility, and will be developed as land uses mature and additional transportation funding becomes available.
The CCT project will provide transit service to communities such as King Farm, Crown Farm and Kentlands; and institutional hubs, including the Life Sciences Center and Universities at Shady Grove. The transitway will connect to the District of Columbia and other regional destinations by way of the MARC Brunswick Line at Metropolitan Grove and the Metrorail Red Line at Shady Grove. A high quality bike network can get more people to the transitway stations, allowing for greater mobility.
What is the duration of the planning process?
The update to the Bicycle Master Plan is scheduled to be completed by September 2017. Review the full schedule for this plan:

State Transportation Officials Affirm Planners' Recommendation for Corridor Cities Transitway Route
SILVER SPRING, MD – A key recommendation for the Gaithersburg West Master Plan that would re-route the proposed Corridor Cities Transitway (CCT) was strengthened Thursday when state transit officials endorsed the proposal. The plan is under consideration by the Montgomery County Council.
In an October 22 letter, Donald Halligan, director of the Maryland Transit Administration's Office of Planning and Capital Programming, cited an up to 40 percent increase in ridership associated with the revised transit route in approving the realignment recommendation. That increase would make the CCT project more cost-effective, the agency letter said.
Halligan urged the County Council to speedily approve the draft Gaithersburg West plan proposed by the Planning Board so the transit agency could seek federal approval for the mass transit project.
The CCT, conceived in the 1970s as a 14-mile-long light rail or bus rapid transit route connecting the Shady Grove Metrorail Station to Clarksburg, has been the lynchpin for the Gaithersburg West Master Plan. The plan focuses on invigorating the county's Life Sciences Center by creating a more desirable community where people can live, work and enjoy many services.
Planners envision that the CCT, which they recommend run as bus rapid transit, would help create a more walkable community in a Life Sciences Center now dominated by cars. The CCT would serve as a means to cluster houses, jobs, and retail to support activity centers and lessen reliance on automobiles.

Planners Recommend Bus Rapid Transit for Proposed Corridor Cities Transit Project; Planning Board Schedules Public Hearing July 6
SILVER SPRING – Montgomery County planners have recommended bus rapid transit, a system designed to move transit vehicles past traffic congestion on dedicated lanes, for the Corridor Cities Transitway (CCT), a planned public transportation project linking Shady Grove with Clarksburg.
Following recommendations rolled out in the draft Gaithersburg West Master Plan, planners have endorsed a route for the CCT that follows a long established alignment from the Shady Grove Metro Station through Gaithersburg, Middlebrook and Germantown on its way to Clarksburg. However, planners recommend a change to the previously planned route through the Life Sciences Center near Gaithersburg.
Responding to a Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) report, planners also addressed a proposed expansion of I-270 as another strategy to improve mobility in the heavily traveled corridor. The expansion could include preferential lanes for high occupancy vehicles and drivers willing to pay a toll. Both projects would try to alleviate chronic traffic concerns in the I-270 Corridor, the economic engine of Montgomery County.
Planners made their recommendations based on MDOT's Alternatives Analysis/Environmental Assessment report. Their recommendations go to the Planning Board, which has scheduled a July 6 public hearing to allow residents and others to have their say.
The board's recommendation will be considered by the County Council's transportation committee on July 13. Once the Council has collected input, it will send the county's collective position on the two transportation projects back to the state.
The CCT has long been proposed along I-270, and the Planning Board has featured the CCT as an integral part of master plans for Gaithersburg West and Germantown. The transit route would support a growing number of workers and proposed new residences in those areas. In the state report, transportation planners evaluated premium bus, light rail and bus rapid transit. By choosing bus rapid transit, county planners have endorsed an alternative that is estimated to cost around $450 million. The CCT is expected to carry up to 27,000 people daily by 2030.
Planners say bus rapid transit would link activity centers in the corridor, maximize connections to other transit routes such as Metro, and increase opportunities for funding and construction phasing that would allow it to be built quickly.
As part of their proposal, planners recommend adding a busway segment through the Life Sciences Center that creates a loop serving Shady Grove Adventist Hospital, the Universities at Shady Grove, the emerging Johns Hopkins University campus, a redeveloped county Public Safety Training Academy site and other businesses. That new route, which would support proposed residential development, existing and planned heath sciences and hospital facilities, and biomedical research initiatives, has been the subject of much discussion as the Planning Board prepares to finalize its draft of the Gaithersburg West Master Plan next month.
The state report combines the CCT with I-270 highway improvements. Planners recommend that the CCT go first to emphasize the most affordable, green solution by combining transit and mixed use development to support a community less dependent on auto travel.
Planners reviewed the highway alternatives presented by the state and recommended a combination of express toll lanes and high-occupancy vehicle lanes. Express toll lanes provide a speedy and reliable option by charging a toll that varies depending on the time and day of use. The I-270 improvements, extending well into Frederick County, may cost up to $3.9 billion and could displace up to 260 homes, although transportation officials believe that number can be reduced significantly by minimizing the width of roadway shoulders and constructing retaining walls.
Adding a combination of high-occupancy lanes and tolls also would encourage people to commute longer distances by bus or rail and use the highway for carpooling to transit stations, planners say.
Planners also recommended that the County Council establish a working group to pursue potential funding for the CCT in addition to existing public transportation like Metro and Ride On.

Person of Interest: Tom Perrotta
Meet the local author who you and 30,000 other Bostonians will be reading this month.
Tom Perotta to fame. The Belmont author has six acclaimed novels under his belt. His script for Little Children, his second book made into a movie, earned him an Oscar nomination. The New York Times dubbed him "an American Chekhov." But when the Boston Book Festival distributes 30,000 free copies of one of his stories this month, he's likely to reach a whole new level of recognition. "I've never been on the Oprah book club," he says, "and that's the only thing that could beat this." As you read this, copies of Perrotta's story "The Smile on Happy Chang's Face" are being delivered to T stations and coffee shops around the city (the piece is also available at bostonbookfest.org). And if all goes according to plan, the story will spark a kind of citywide book group, elbowing its way into water-cooler conversations the way last weekend's Pats game did. "In the utopian dream of mine, stories and novels will be as much a part of the common conversation as TV shows," says Perrotta. "I think [the story] will lead to different sorts of discussions than might arise from TV." He'll find out for sure on October 16, when he takes questions at the festival's open-to-all discussion.
"Happy Chang" should definitely get people's attention. Set on a Little League diamond, it nonetheless hits on grown-up issues such as domestic abuse, homophobia, and the tendency of otherwise-mellow suburban parents to brawl at their kids' games. As the father of two youth soccer players, Perrotta understands a little of that phenomenon. "It's easy to shake your head about the extreme cases," he says. "But it's a whole other thing to discover that you yourself are all worked up about some eight-year-old kids running up and down the field."
Of course, as a dad, Perrotta knows that people don't always do their reading homework, but that won't dampen his enthusiasm. "Generally, short stories are limited to a self-consciously literary audience. It's really exciting that this is much more communal and democratic," he says. "The idea that it will be handed to people like a newspaper — what writer doesn't have that fantasy?"

Kombucha Starter Kit
Product Rating:
Product Review (submitted on February 7, 2014):
My kombucha starter kit arrived promptly, sooner than I expected! The packaging is very professional in appearance with well laid out labels, artful and simple. The booklet of instructions is reassuringly clear, readable, and complete. The scoby is still rehydrating, so I don't really know yet how my actual kombucha will turn out, but I have contacted Cultures for Health several times online and have received answers to all of my questions in a very timely manner. Both the live chat and the contact through email have elicited prompt replies. I am very impressed with their customer service!

Nicknames Of Grammy Stars Explained
Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson: "The King of Pop" Was this title fan-generated or self-imposed? That controversy may never end. Jackson liked to say that he adopted it only after it had become a common catchphrase among his followers, although there was little evidence that it had been in popular usage prior to his insisting that MTV identify him as a royal in 1991. But he also referred to it being used by his pal Elizabeth Taylor, and sure enough, she did refer to him as "the King of Pop, Rock and Soul" in a 1989 introduction. Jackson, modest fellow that he was, lopped off the "rock" and "soul" designations and stuck with being ruler of one country. In later years, the British press came up with a name he hardly embraced: "Wacko Jacko," eventually shortened to the slightly less derogatory "Jacko."

City Unveils New Wildland Fire Prevention Program
DATE: April 10, 2012
CONTACT: Steve Hester, Assistant Fire Chief – 727-8070
Randy McCamley, Fire Chief – 727-8070
Great Falls, Montana – The Great Falls Fire Rescue in cooperation with the Great Falls Public Works Department is unveiling a new program to reduce wildland fires in Cascade County. The Wildland Fire Prevention Program has been developed to increase awareness of vegetation and wildland fires and identify areas and properties that may be at higher risk. The program provides property owners with recommendations on ways to prevent wildland fires from starting and spreading to nearby properties.
Wildland fires have the potential to not only destroy wildlife and vegetation but to also threaten buildings and personal property. As part of the program, property owners are provided useful information which can provide assistance during a fire. Some items that are outlined in the program include having a defendable area around the home/structure so firefighters can safely defend the property, disposing of oily rags, having a fire extinguisher on hand, installing and checking smoke detectors and proper storage of flammable liquids.
According to Steve Hester, Assistant Fire Chief, "It is our hope that this program will educate property owners about the dangers of wildland fires and provide them the necessary tools to protect their loved ones and property. When a wildland fire occurs, it has the potential to not only impact the immediate property, but nearby properties as well. Education and preparation is essential."
Similar Wildland Fire Prevention Programs have been implemented throughout the State. Montana's plant life and climate make wildland fires a regular occurrence. Wildland fires rejuvenate the wild vegetation and create habitat for the State's wildlife. However, civilization and development tend to get in the way during wildland fire events.
Interested in being included in the new Wildland Fire Prevention Program? The program is designed for property owners who are in the Great Falls Fire Rescue jurisdiction. Staff is available to visit, conduct an inspection and make safety recommendations for eligible property owners. To schedule an appointment, contact the Great Falls Fire Rescue at 727-8070.

Health equity can be defined as the absence of disadvantage to individuals and communities in health outcomes, access to health care, and quality of health care regardless of one's race, gender, nationality, age, ethnicity, religion and socioeconomic status.
Health equity concerns those disparities in public health that can be traced to unequal, systemic economic and social conditions. Despite significant improvements in the health of the overall population, health inequities in America persist. Racial and ethnic minorities continue to experience higher rates of morbidity and mortality than nonminorities across a range of health issues. For example, African-American children with asthma have a seven times greater mortality rate than Non-Hispanic White children with the illness. While cancer is the second leading cause of death among all populations in the U.S., ethnic minorities are especially burdened with the disease.
African-American men, for example, are more than twice as likely as their White counterparts to die of prostate cancer. In addition, 36 percent of adults with a disability are obese compared to 23 percent of adults without a disability, and smoking prevalence for people with disabilities is approximately 50 percent higher than for people without disabilities. Among the 10 leading causes of mortality in the U.S., minority populations experience the highest rate of death. The reported reasons for these disparities vary, including individual factors such as limited access to health care and differences in cultural beliefs, social norms, and socioeconomic status.

.- A statue of Our Lady of Lujan—the most popular Marian devotion in Argentina—will be erected on October 10 at the Darwin Cemetery on the Falkland Islands by a group of family members of fallen soldiers, accompanied by Bishop Juan Carlos Romanin of Rio Gallegos.
"This is the statue of Our Lady of Lujan, patroness of Argentina, the last piece of the monument to our fallen soldiers on the Falkland Islands," the bishop said, adding that the Mother of God will watch over the eternal repose of our brothers "who fought the good fight for independence and national sovereignty," as the inscription at the foot of the statue reads.
"This invitation is truly a gift of God for me, allowing me to travel to this place that is so beloved by our Church. Many of the former soldiers have venerated the Mother of God and have expressed their feelings, necessities, prayers and hopes to her."
The statue will be erected at the monument in the Cemetery of Darwin to watch over "the Argentineans who lie in rest on the archipelago since 1982."

Digging through some material today I found a "filed" (ie., lost) CD full of pics from Nong Kiaow and Muang Ngoi -- two classic backpacker destinations upriver from Luang Prabang -- including all the accommodation pictures that have long been missing from Travelfish.
While adding in the guesthouse pics, I was struck by just how breathtakingly beautiful the area is -- the photo of the guy strumming a guitar on his guesthouse balcony looking over the river on Muang Ngoi as the river sets, had me wishing I was packing my bags now!

Stop Finning Deutschland unterstützte die #NoWASharkCull Bewegung
Besonderen Dank an Veerle R, Roalnd S. und Madison Stewart
Print this and show your support and be part of a worldwide movement: stop-finning.com/NoWASharkCull.pdf
Sent an email direct to Colin Barnett (email@example.com):
Dear Premier Barnett,
I am writing to you to express my opposition to your government's 'bait and kill' policy for sharks in Western Australia.
My heart goes out to the families and friends of the victims of shark attacks, but I believe that scientific evidence does not support the introduction of a 'bait and kill' policy for sharks as a response.
As more than 100 scientists said in a recent open letter to you: "Culling sharks is merely a cosmetic solution to the problem of shark attacks. Public education and shark avoidance are measures with long-lasting effects that will ensure the friendly co-existence of sharks and humans. Non-invasive methods such as aerial patrols have been proven to work in minimising, even further, the small chance of a shark attack."
In this vein, I applaud your government's funding of major shark research projects through the Department of Fisheries, particularly regarding tagging activities along the Western Australian coast.
However, I believe 'bait and kill' could have a severe impact on species already threatened or in decline, yet produce no benefit for ocean-lovers. Please heed the advice of scientists and repeal this policy immediately.
Yours sincerely,
This video is a support to all conservation movements, that try to stop the cull immediately.

I noticed that most sites send the passwords as plain text over HTTPS to the server. Is there any advantage if instead of that I sent the hash of the password to the server? Would it be more secure?
Since it's over HTTPS, it's definitely just fine to send the password without hashing (over HTTPS it's not plaintext). Furthermore, if your application is depending on HTTPS to keep it's content secure, then it's useless to hash the password before sending it over HTTPS (i.e. if an attacker can unencrypt the data on the wire, you're screwed anyways)
This is an old question, but I felt the need to provide my opinion on this important matter. There is so much misinformation here
The OP never mentioned sending the password in clear over HTTP - only HTTPS, yet many seem to be responding to the question of sending a password over HTTP for some reason. That said:
I believe passwords should never be retained (let alone transmitted) in plain text. That means not kept on disk, or even in memory.
People responding here seem to think HTTPS is a silver bullet, which it is not. It certainly helps greatly however, and should be used in any authenticated session.
There is really no need to know what an original password is. All that is required is a reliable way to generate (and reliably re-generate) an authentication "key" based on the original text chosen by the user. In an ideal world this text should immediately generate a "key" by hashing it using irreversible salt. This salt should be unique to the user credential being generated. This "key" will be what your systems use as a password. This way if your systems ever get compromised in the future, these credentials will only ever be useful against your own organisation, and nowhere else where the user has been lazy and used the same password.
So we have a key. Now we need to clean up any trace of the password on the clients device.
Next we need to get that key to your systems. You should never transmit a key or password "in the clear". Not even over HTTPS. HTTPS is not impenetrable. In fact, many organisations can become a trusted MITM - not from an attack perspective, but to perform inspections on the traffic to implement their own security policies. This weakens HTTPS, and it is not the only way it happens (such as redirects to HTTP MITM attacks for example). Never assume it is secure.
To get around this, we hash the key with a once off nonce. This nonce is unique for every submission of a key to your systems - even for the same credential during the same session if you need to send it multiple times. You can reverse this nonce once it arrives in your own systems to recover the authentication key, and authenticate the request.
At this point I would irreversibly hash it one last time before it is permanently stored in your own systems. That way you can share the credential's salt with partner organisations for the purposes of SSO and the like, whilst being able to prove your own organisation cannot impersonate the user. The best part of this approach is you are never sharing anything generated by the user without their authorisation.
Do more research, as there is more to it than even I have divulged, but if you want to provide true security to your users, I think this method is currently the most complete response here.
Use HTTPS. Securely hash passwords, irreversibly, with a unique salt per password. Do this on the client - do not transmit their actual password. Transmitting the users original password to your servers is never "OK" or "Fine". Clean up any trace of the original password. Use a nonce regardless of HTTP/HTTPS. It is much more secure on many levels. (Answer to OP).
No, in fact this would be a vulnerability. If the attacker is able to obtain the hash from the database, then he could use it to authenticate without needing to crack it. Under no circumstance should a user or an attacker be able to obtain a hashes password.
The whole point of hashing passwords is to add an extra layer of security. If an attacker is able to obtain the hash and salt from the database using SQL Injection or an insecure backup then he has to find the plain text by brute forcing it. John The Ripper is commonly used to break salted password hashes.
Not using https is a violation of the OWASP Top 10: A9-Insufficient Transport Layer Protection
If in your implementation you calculate a
The closest thing i have seen to a client-side replacement for https is a diffie-hellman in key exchange in javascript. However, this does prevent active MITM attacks and thus is till technicality a violation of OWASP A9. The Authors of the code agree that this is not a complete replacement for HTTPS, however it is better than nothing and better than a client-side hashing system.
Sending a hash over the wire completely defeats the purpose of the hash, because an attacker can simply send the hash and forget about the password. In a nutshell, a system that athenticates using a hash in clear text is wide open and can be compromise with nothing more than network sniffing.
Use HTTP Digest - it secures the password even over http (but best useage would be http digest over https)
HTTP digest access authentication is one of the agreed methods a web server can use to negotiate credentials with a web user (using the HTTP protocol). Digest authentication is intended to supersede unencrypted use of the Basic access authentication, allowing user identity to be established securely without having to send a password in plaintext over the network. Digest authentication is basically an application of MD5 cryptographic hashing with usage of nonce values to prevent cryptanalysis.
Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication
If you want to see a "real life" use, you could look at phpMyID - a php openid provider that uses http digest authentication http://siege.org/phpmyid.php
.. or you could start from the php auth samples at http://php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php
Http digest rfc: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2617
From my tests all modern browsers support it...
If you're looking to replace a clear-text password over HTTPS with a hashed password over HTTP then you're asking for trouble. HTTPS generates a random, shared transaction key when opening up a communication channel. That's hard to crack, as you're pretty much limited to brute forcing the shared key used for a (relatively) short-term transaction. Whereas your hash can be just sniffed, taken off-line and looked up in a rainbow table or just brute forced over a long amount of time.
However, a basic client-side password obfuscation (not hash) sent over HTTPS does have some value. If I'm not mistaken this technique is actually used by some banks. The purpose of this technique is not to protect the password from sniffing over the wire. Rather, it's to stop the password from being usable to dumb spying tools and browser plug-ins that just grab every HTTPS GET/POST request that they see. I've seen a log file captured from a malicious website that was 400MB of random GET/POST transactions captured from user sessions. You can imagine that websites that used just HTTPS would show up with clear-text passwords in the log, but websites with very basic obfuscation (ROT13) as well would show up with passwords that are not immediately of use.
It would actually be less secure to hash the password and send it over a non-encrypted channel. You will expose your hashing algorithm on the client. Hackers could just sniff the hash of the password and then use it to hack in later.
By using HTTPS, you prevent a hacker from obtaining the password from a single source, since HTTPS uses two channels, both encrypted.
If you're connected to an https server the data stream between the server and browser should be encrypted. The data is only plain text before being sent and after being recieved. Wikipedia article
The password in plaintext show never (not even when using HTTPS) leave the client. It should be irreversibly hashed before leaving the client as there is no need for the server to know the actual password.
Hashing then transmitting solves security issues for lazy users that use the same password in multiple locations (I know I do). However this does not protect your application as a hacker that gained access to the database (or in any other way was able to get his hands on the hash) as the hacker could just transmit the hash and have the server accept it.
To solve this issue you could of course just hash the hash the server receives and call it a day.
My approach to the issue in a socket-based web application I'm creating is that on connection to the client the server generates a salt (random string to be added before hashing) and stores it on the sockets variable, then it transmits this hash to the client. The client takes the users password, hashes it, adds the salt from the server and hashes the whole thing, before transmitting it to the server. Then it's sent to the server which compares this hash to the hash(hash in the DB + salt). As far as I know this is a good approach, but to be fair I haven't read a lot on the topic and if I'm wrong about anything I'd love to be corrected :)
