Please read before contacting mentors in the W&J CCN Mentoring Network.
When preparing to contact the Alumni Mentors in the W&J CCN, we encourage professionally written messages that are grammatically correct. Construct a succinct message with a reference to the W&J mentoring network in the message. Use formal salutations and closings and show appreciation for his/her time and willingness to be a resource for your career growth.
Note: As it is important to make a positive first impression; please keep in mind that Career Services and your faculty advisors will be great resources for reviewing drafts of your communications.
A sample message might be something like:
Dear Dr. Bilsky,
I read your bio in the W&J CCN Mentoring Network and as a current junior majoring in English, I was wondering if you would be willing to speak with me about your experience as a graduate student at Stanford. I am preparing my own graduate school applications and welcome any advice you might have for me.
Thank you so much for your time and I appreciate your willingness to be a resource for W&J students.
Jane Doe, W&J '16
Writer, W&J Red & Black
Or an alternative:
Dear Mr. Van Cleve,
As a W&J student majoring in Business Administration, I am thinking about the sales field as a career direction. After reading your career information in the W&J CCN Mentoring Network, I am very interested in learning more about your work in the field. Would you be willing to speak with me about your work as a Sales Director in a technical field? Any advice you have will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
Best regards,

Summary: The paper studies discrete time market models with serial correlations. We found a market structure that ensures that the optimal strategy is myopic for the case of both power or log utility function. In addition, discrete time approximation of optimal continuous time strategies for diffusion market is analyzed. It is found that the performance of optimal myopic diffusion strategies cannot be approximated by optimal strategies with discrete time transactions that are optimal for the related discrete time market model.

Early Day Miners may have had its roots in slowcore, but the band pushed it sounds in more ways that that always dodgeable label would suggest. After the group seemed to be dissolving, they came back in a new form as EDM with Night People. This incarnation of the group melds some Americana influences into its work, moving away from post-rock sensibilities with a sound that's frequently more urgent, as on "Hold Me Down" and the pop-rock of "Stereo / Video". The band's own roots haven't been pulled up, though. A cut like "Milking the Moon" keeps the shoegaze tendrils active even as it shifts into the dreamier "Turncoats". The band's new name references its past even as it moves forward, and it's a good representation of the group's aesthetic development as well.

It's Not About Right and Left. It's About Right and Wrong.
Tonight, Mike Moon joins us for another update on what's happening in the Missouri Legislature. For one, there will be a very exciting hearing next week on HJR 98. This hearing should have a full room, so if you are interested and able to attend, be sure and listen in tonight. We'll also discuss the Anti-Comandeering bill (HB 2582)
Then, there was an interesting debate this past week between Michael Farris and Walter Olson. The subject, of course, was whether or not a Convention of States is (Farris) or is not (Olson) the proper course of action for us today. Lloyd attended that debate and brings insight. We'll also renew our own discussions on the subject of CoS.
Join us tonight at our new time, Thursday nights, 7PM Missouri Time.

Missouri Rising: Dave & Lloyd with Mike Moon and Ron Calzone
It's Not About Right and Left. It's About Right and Wrong!
As with most Thursday evenings, Mike Moon joins the award-winning Missouri Rising team to update listeners on the week in the Missouri Legislature. On the hot topic list for this week, a hearing on HJR98. Bet your bottom dollar Mike has other interesting tidbits from this week's session - and he always stands ready to answer your calls.
Then, as a special treat, we'll talk with Ron Calzone; a non-lobbyist citizen's advocate in Jefferson City, founder and director at Missouri First, and pro se warrior for Missourians in the quest for Constitutional governance. We'll get updates on Ron's recent battle to uphold Missouri's Constitution with respect to massive omnibus bills. We'll also talk about his fight with the Missouri Ethics Commission, who recently ruled that almost anyone who testifies before a Legislative Committee more than once must register as a lobbyist. We will wrap up with recently introduced legislation that would severely limit the powers of State Courts to modify laws, legislate, and amend our Constitution.
You don't want to miss this two hours of fun! It's the best Thursday night you'll spend this week.
Missouri Rising: A Frustrating Week with Mike Moon
It's Not About Right and Left. It's About Right and Wrong!
Mike Moon joins us again tonight as we review the past two of the closing weeks of the Missouri Legislative session. Religious Liberty? Not in Missouri. Save the Babies? Not in Missouri. Perscription Drug Monitoring Program. Sure, bring it on. And, don't forget the most important priority, license plates for Boys Softball in Missouri. Meanwhile, the House continues to entertain bills which, just this winter, the courts demanded they stop entertaining. These bills contain so many different subjects, paragraphs, pages, and differing issues that it's impossible to be for them all or against them all. What's up with that?
Join us at 7PM Missouri Time as we discuss these issues. Call and participate at 347-677-1835.

Will Missouri take her stand against federal overreach or pass quietly into submission? Mike Moon will join us to talk about these important bills - and more.
What the heck is going on at Eagle Forum? Once a strong political infuence in Missouri, the organization seems to be undergoing some changes. What's behind all that?
How'd that caucus thing work out for you? Reports from front line participants are on the schedule, and yours are welcome. Call in and let us know how that went for you.
And, as we wind down the Presidential selection process for Missouri, perhaps we can get down to talking about what's really important - local and State elections that truly matter to Missouri Rising.

Trevor Noah Wonders if DNC Chair 'Cock-Blocked' Bernie Sanders
After a deeply satisfying exchange with Sen. Lindsey Graham, it was starting to seem like Trevor Noah might have gotten a hang of this interview thing, after all. Then again, maybe not!
After a deeply satisfying exchange with Sen. Lindsey Graham, it was starting to seem like Trevor Noah might have gotten a hang of this interview thing, after all. Then again, maybe not!
Sen. Lindsey Graham went on The Daily Show last night to laugh about his surprising and bad decision to endorse Ted Cruz, and guys, it was an absolute romp from start to finish.
Tuesday night's Daily Show was set to feature Chris Brown as the guest, according to a schedule posted online last week. Instead, Nick Cannon appeared, with little indication as to why the change was made. Except, uh, we can guess why the change was made.
In September, Vanity Fair ran a story in which 10 male late-night hosts were featured and referred to as, "all of the titans of late night television." As expected, the internet blew up at the lack of women in the portrait, especially the absence of one particular fixture from late night TV. Samantha Bee, a longtime…
On Monday night, The Daily Show host Trevor Noah parsed how far-right Republicans are simultaneously pro-life and pro-guns. How can one be so upset about when life begins but so blasé about when it ends by doing little to restrict access to dangerous weapons? It boggles the mind!
Republican presidential hopeful Chris Christie stopped by The Daily Show on Wednesday night and reminded America that he's still in the race for the nomination. Did you know that or did you forget about him (and Bridgegate) too?
Trevor Noah did solidly swell in his debut as host of The Daily Show on Monday night. As with anyone inheriting a TV show for the first time, there were moderate levels of awkwardness, nervous adjustment and self-awareness. Appropriately, though, Noah started by extending gratitude to his predecessor, who bequeathed…
Perhaps you stumbled across a new and conspicuous Vanity Fair spread today. You know, the one featuring a photograph of all of the current late-night television hosts. You might even have noticed a striking similarity uniting said hosts. If you look closely, you'll see that—I know this is a surprise—they're ALL male!…
Hello, here's a teaser for Trevor Noah's upcoming gig hosting The Daily Show. It's a beautiful slow motion promo soundtracked by Kanye West's "Power." The Trevor Noah era is upon us starting on September 28, when he officially inherits the desk of Jon Stewart. "Same chair, different ass," according to the promo.
Despite its position as liberal watchdog and Jon Stewart's persona as mensch-y everyman, his legacy at The Daily Show has been tainted by its perceived woman problem. Critics have pointed out that its female correspondents have been few and far-between, and the writing staff (as with every late night show) has…
On Thursday evening, Jon Stewart said goodbye to his loyal, leftie viewers.
Welcome to Would U?, an academic forum in which I share my gross crush of the week and ask if you, too, would bang that person.
Last night on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart managed to effectively smack down Mike Huckabee's "oven door" comment with a few video clips and some theatrical grunts. It's truly unnecessary to put in any rhetorical effort—Huckabee is just that much of an idiot.
Trevor Noah took a ride with Jerry Seinfeld for the latter's web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee and talked about how he reacted to landing his new gig hosting The Daily Show. He also awkwardly schooled Seinfeld about racism in South Africa.
Last night, the Daily Show and Jessica Williams tackled the addition of a woman (TBD) to the $10, which she calls not a giant leap so much as an "awkward trip forward on a jagged sidewalk that you pretended you did on purpose." You see, the Treasury is redesigning it because it was due for an anti-counterfeiting…
Jon Stewart only has a few weeks remaining in his tenure as host of The Daily Show. But an old friend will be there to help ease the transition: Donald Trump, who ought to stick around the presidential race just long enough for a few goodbye segments at the expense of good old Fuckface von Clownstick.
On Monday, Jon Stewart joined America in wondering what the fuck was going on with 37-year-old Rachel Dolezal, the white woman who on Tuesday morning said that she "identified as black." I identify as wealthy, now where are my coins?!
On Monday night, people in McKinney, Texas took to the streets to protest Corporal Eric Casebolt, a police officer who brandished his gun at a pool party and waved it at some teens while sitting on the back of a black girl. Literally. As a result, he's been suspended—but not fired. Noted, Texas.
Jon Stewart's last Daily Show will be August 6, and in the leadup we're probably going to be subjected to endless takes about how he Shaped America's Discourse. The Daily Show itself wasted no time mocking that trend, with this touching tribute from John Hodgman, which they promise will be the first in a series.
If you're like me, you're saving up all of your tears like cathartic candy for the last airing of The Daily Show this summer. But if you're like Melissa McCarthy, you've made your mourning a sartorial statement. On Wednesday, the Spy actress showed up to her Daily Show interview in a kimono made of Stewart's mug like…

Spectacular Peacock Butterfly. Most beautiful butterfly ever seen, created by God. No man could ever make this!
"His talent was as natural as the pattern that was made by the dust on a butterfly's wings. At one time he understood it no more than the butterfly did and he did not know when it was brushed or marred. Later he became conscious of his damaged wings and of their construction and he learned to think and could not fly any more because the love of flight was gone and he could only remember when it had been effortless." ― Ernest Hemingway

hey, who thinks the same?
The tentechnology remote was ment to be released in the first quarter of 2004. However, Apple had not finished writing the new firmware to support it yet so they couldn't release it. Its been another 3 months since they were originally going to release it.
I expect the remote and new firmware at this event.(?)
(not being a hardcore apple knowledge person and not living in america i THINK thats what they do at teh expo's yeah? release new stuff?)

Goldberg Attorney, Agent, or Firm-Harte, Baxley and Spiccens [57] ABSTRACT A paired or quadded telecommunication cable have conductors arranged in groups. One pair or quad within each group does not change place and is shielded by the other pairs or quads within the group resulting in a high relative freedom of crosstalk.
1 Claim, 1 Drawing Figure 1 TELECOMMUNICATION CABLE, PARTICULARLY PAIRED CABLE WITH I IMPROVED RELATIVE CROSSTALK PROPERTIES FOR CERTAIN PAIRS The present invention relates to a telecommunication cable, particularly a paired or a quadded cable, for transmission of telecommunication signals, comprising a number of insulated conductors arranged as pairs or quads in groups or sub groups, wherein the pairs or quads changing their relative positions systematically or at random.
Cables of the kind under discussion are manufactured for reducing and compensating the crosstalk between conductor pairs or quads. Very good results have been achieved with cables of this kind and the crosstalk between arbitrarily chosen pair or quad combinations have been reduced to an acceptable level, as far as speech transmission is concerned. However, conductors intended for telephone calls are to an increasingly larger extent being used for transmission of other kinds of signals, e.g. signals for picture telephone, PCM- systems and data communication. In such connections the requirements for freedom of relative crosstalk are particularly high.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING The FIGURE represents the cable in cross section.
The present invention relates to a cable in which a number of pairs or quads have a very high relative freedom of crosstalk which is achieved by practing the invention as defined by the appended claim.
An embodiment of the invention will be more fully described accompanying with, reference to the drawing, which in cross section, shows a telecommunication cable ll comprising ten groups 2, of which each one in turn comprises ten conductor pairs 3. In known embodiments these ten conductor pairs change places systematically or at random in such a way that the crosstalk between an arbitrarily chosen conductor pair and each one of the other conductor pairs is almost constant. In the shown embodiment there are eight conductor pairs in the periphery of the group, while two conductor pairs form the core of the group. According to the invention one or several pairs 4 in a number of groups are excepted from the relative changing of places and maintain their places along the whole length of thecable. For achieving the best possible'relative crosstalk freedom between the pairs 4 they are placed in the centre of the respective group. The other com ductor pairs then form a shield around the chosen pairs; and shield also protects these pairs from external disturbances. This is particularly advantageous in connection with aerial cables in which the surface layers are more exposed to external disturbances than the inner layers.
I claim:
1. A telecommunication cable comprising a plurality of telecommunication signal conductors wherein each of said telecommunication signal conductors comprises at least two insulated wires, said plurality being arranged into at least two groups, within each group the telecommunication signal conductors thereof being arranged to surround at least one of the telecommunication signal conductors while changing relative positions with respect to each other except for said one telecommunication signal conductor whose position remains constant along the length of the cable.

Millionen von Mitgliedern tauschen sich tagtäglich in tausenden Gruppen aus: Die Gruppen auf XING ermöglichen anspruchsvollen und professionellen Austausch zwischen Kollegen, Branchenkennern und Experten – egal, ob es um fachliche Themen, gemeinsame Interessen oder neue Projekte und Jobs geht.
Die Gruppen zählen zu den beliebtesten Produkten auf XING. Seit Bestehen haben wir immer wieder – kleinere, aber auch größere – Verbesserungen und Änderungen eingeführt. In diesem Frühling wollen wir Ihnen erneut einige Neuerungen für Gruppenmoderatoren sowie -mitglieder und Geschäftskunden vorstellen. Die neu eingeführten Funktionalitäten hat XING unter Berücksichtigung der Vorschläge und Bedürfnisse der Mitglieder und Kunden entwickelt.
Nachfolgend werde ich Ihnen die wesentlichen Neuerungen im Überblick präsentieren, die wir Ihnen in den kommenden Tagen und Wochen nach und nach in den Gruppen bereitstellen werden:
Offizieller Gruppenpost
Als Moderator kennen Sie diese Situation: Sie möchten alle Teilnehmer mit einem Post erreichen, um sie beispielsweise über neue Unterforen oder ein wichtiges Event zu informieren. Bislang veröffentlichten Sie hierzu einen gewöhnlichen Beitrag in Ihrem Namen. Ab sofort können Sie wesentlich mehr Aufmerksamkeit erzeugen, indem Sie als Moderator im Namen Ihrer Gruppe posten können.
Damit Ihre wichtigen Ankündigungen als Moderator nicht innerhalb kurzer Zeit im Stream weiter nach unten rücken, können Sie nun einen Beitrag als "Lese-Tipp" markieren – dieser bleibt damit für alle sichtbar oben angeheftet. Sobald Sie diese Funktion nicht mehr benötigen, können Sie einfach per Klick den Sonderstatus des Posts aufheben.
Videos & PDFs
Ähnlich wie Sie als Mitglied im Portfolio multimediale Elemente zur aussagekräftigen Beschreibung Ihrer Personen einsetzen können, ist dies nun auch in den Gruppen möglich. Nutzen Sie die Chance und erweitern Sie den Reiter "Über diese Gruppe" in Zukunft um Videos und PDFs. So können Sie beispielsweise ein Video Ihres letzten gemeinsamen Gruppenevents zeigen, um potenzielle neue Mitglieder auf sich aufmerksam zu machen. (more…)

Last week saw the return of what is now a long-standing tradition: Innovation Week at XING. This was the 18th iteration of its kind and a vital part of our engineering culture. The idea behind Innovation Week is that five times a year the product teams can put aside their roadmap and spend an entire working week forging ideas they're interested in. This doesn't just result in new kinds of products (some of which are a little unusual), it also allows the XING platform to be improved upon and gives employees the freedom to explore uncharted territories and technologies. Many of the results of Innovation Weeks are related to existing products and have already been implemented on the live platform, while others are only used internally or just thought up to tinker with. Previous Innovation Weeks have so far given birth to XING Projects, the XING Beta Labs, two-factor authentication and a nifty internal room-booking system. It's all about having fun trying out new things, which is why we have the following vision (thanks to Jurgen Appelo): "These days are meant to invite employees to learn and develop themselves by running experiments and exploring new ideas."
Innovation Week gets under way with a kick-off session on Monday morning. Attendees can enjoy bagels and croissants while learning the agenda for the week, followed by the project trade fair. This is where supply and demand comes into play: although there's an internal online tool for presenting projects to attract team members in advance, the project trade fair is the venue for making yourself known to colleagues who haven't decided which project they'd like to work on. Once the teams have got together, it's time for them to start developing anywhere they like and without any interruptions. (more…)

On 29 January 2013 the news spread on the net like wildfire: Foodspotting, an app where users can recommend great dishes they discover during restaurant visits, has been acquired by the OpenTable online reservation service for 10 million US dollars.
Foodspotting's meteoric rise began in September 2009 when Alexa Andrzejewski and her team attended the Women 2.0 Startup Weekend with the aim of working with other participants to turn a vague idea into a detailed concept. Their first prototype was born after 54 hours of brainstorming and drafting, and it was brilliant! The presentation of the prototype at the end of the event was so convincing that a small investor immediately offered the team financing to the tune of 5,000 euros. The first-ever version of the app was released at the start of 2010, after which it was nothing but a resounding success.
The series of events titled Startup Weekend was launched in 2007, which was later followed by an offshoot called Startup Weekend Women. This has always been a memorable event, and was attended by Foodspotting back in the day. Both of these events are so popular that they're now regularly held in a number of places all over the world.
The idea behind these two events is that people from different disciplines looking to get into innovation gear meet up at the weekend to exchange ideas, work in teams, design and develop products, and launch startups. The Startup Weekend Women is primarily aimed at women looking to create a startup and present their ideas, but men are of course also welcome to attend and get involved.
Here at XING we're really impressed by the creative energy that's clearly tangible at these events, and we're happy to be the main sponsor of Hamburg's first Startup Weekend Women which will be held from 10 to 12 April. We're looking forward to seeing and hearing about the ideas forged there over the available 54 hours, and we're really excited about any promising concepts or prototypes that may come to fruition.

When we at XING in Barcelona decided to reorganize the product team and to make 5 teams out of 3 teams, we chose a different way for reorganizing them. According to our vision "For a better working life" we chose to hold an internal job fair and to involve every employee in the upcoming reorganization, instead of making our decisions about the new teams behind closed doors.
Why a Job Fair?
Inspired by Michele and Jim McCarthy, who organized a job fair at Microsoft, instead of the usual sitting in endless rounds of meetings, we decided to do so on our own. A job fair is basically an event where companies set up brightly decorated information booths full of smiling recruiters, all trying to snap up talent. There are job fairs at colleges and universities for new graduates as well as industry or sector specific job fairs. But what convinced us to use a job fair format for ourselves?
The job fair format covers and supports the values we share here at XING and would be a great way to uphold those values such as transparency, trust, accountability and efficiency. Not only would we be transparent about the fact that new teams would be formed and what the teams would be working on, but also we wanted to send people the message that we trust them that they know best with whom they want to work and what they want to work on. We believed the group could put themselves in teams with minimal interference from us. An added benefit of being able to choose your own team is that because the choice is yours, you now are accountable to the team to make it work. It's not so easy now to blame the other people on the team, or your manager for putting you on a team you don't like.
How did the Job Fair work out?
After enjoying a breakfast together where everybody got to know each other, the kick-off began with an introduction from Gemma, our VP Engineering. After that each Product Owner was given 20 minutes to present their products/projects and other information such as they liked to work, and what they didn't know yet and needed help figuring out. We asked all the Product Owners to make themselves available to answer any other questions people had about their projects.

Last weekend the Hamburg Geekettes and Open Tech school together organised the very first Hamburg Hackathon, and XING was proud to be the event's main sponsor. More than 80 hackers from all over Europe attended the event held at the fantastic location called werkheim. The organisation was brilliant, and the top venue came with healthy food, fresh smoothies, and even a small pool for kids who came along to hack with their parents. The sun also put in a welcome appearance to really round things off.
The Hackathon kick-started with the motto "For a better working life". Plenty of ideas were pitched, so then it was time to team up and they hack into the 16 ideas that were presented at the end of the event.
The energy, spirit, enthusiasm and passion shown by each and every participant was fantastic.
I had the chance to talk to a lot of people at the event, and I asked each of them why they come to an event like this. A common answer I observed was that they wanted to get to know the community, learn something new, and connected with people who have similar interests. A few of them also had unique answers along the lines of wanting to have the freedom of choice they get by developing something they're passionate about.
XING as a company was privileged to support this event, because we believe everyone should be given a chance to work on something they're passionate about. This is the culture we foster at XING, a typical example being our innovation weeks where every two months the engineering department takes a week out from their usual schedule to hack highly innovative ideas they always wanted to try out and then present them to the entire company at the end of the week. Once a year the entire company also gets together for 3 days to work on ideas aimed at shaping the future of XING, an event called the "Prototyping Days".
In keeping with this, the Hackathon enables every professional to hack into whatever they're passionate about, and we were very privileged to be able to support this event. We wish all the very best to everyone who attended.

XING has introduced new General Terms and Conditions. Today we're sending our members all over the world an e-mail to the notification address they entered on the platform. Members we can't reach via e-mail will receive the same information as a XING message.
Why is XING introducing new General Terms and Conditions at this time?
XING recently celebrated its tenth birthday. A lot of things have changed since our professional business network first went online in 2003. Back then, XING was known as "a private paid communication forum for arranging business contacts" in the previous GTC. Today, XING is much more than that. Long-standing users will in particular remember all the features we've added over the years. Recruiting via XING is an excellent example of just how far we've come as XING members have always shared job vacancies with one another on the platform. The last few years have seen the launch of all kinds of recruiting products for companies ranging from pure job ads to the Employer Branding Profile and on to the XING Talent Manager. And our members can also benefit from an entirely new kind of job ad that immediately shows the employee ratings for that particular company.
A similar scenario also arises with the events portal which, thanks to the XING EVENTS (formerly known as amiando) integration, XING members can use to organise events and manage their online ticketing processes. XING's service portfolio has also grown drastically, and will continue to do so in the future each time we release product innovations. We therefore rewrote our GTC to create the best-possible basis for future developments.
Overview of changes
We'd like to take this opportunity to provide you with an overview of the changes to our GTC. If you have any questions about them at all, please visit the XING Community (German only) where you'll be able to discuss the new GTC with other members and XING employees.
- XING is essentially a social network. On top of that, users have access to other applications such as XING EVENTS or kununu, the largest employer review platform in German-speaking countries. The terms and conditions for the use of these platforms have now been added to our GTC.
- An important aim of the new GTC is the prevention of spam. Our new GTC expressly forbid the use of tools, certain software and scripts that enable XING members to be spammed. Advertising and disseminating such tools is also prohibited.
- The data protection and privacy terms highlight the fact that XING members are at liberty to choose whether or not they want to share their personal details, in whole or in part. Any such settings can also be revoked at any time, meaning that users always remain fully in control over their own data.
- We have also incorporated a number of aspects that are already standard practice. Examples of this include the banning of logos as profile pictures to ensure that people are interacting with one another rather than simply using their profile picture purely for advertising purposes. Our new GTC also further emphasise that profiles may not be used by third parties. They also stipulate that XING does not fundamentally get involved in communication between users. The exception to this rule are groups moderated by XING or XING employees, such as the German-language "XING Community" or the group covering last year's German elections. There may also be projects in the future where XING or XING employees get involved.
As described in the first point, XING provides its users with other applications. A visible profile is not required for every single application, such as with the "Contaxt" app. Here, users can log in with their XING profile, but the service is also available to non-XING members. In such cases, users do not need to have a user profile that's visible within the XING network. This also applies to pure ticket purchases via the events platform and reviews submitted on the employer review platform.
If you'd like to see all of the changes to our GTC, please open this PDF file. We've highlighted the changes to make it easier for you to find them.
We would like to point out one final thing: As always you can object to the new GTC within six weeks of receiving our notification as per clause 12 of the old GTC. If you correctly object in good time, our old GTC continue to apply to you. If we don't hear from you by the end of the objection period, our new GTC will henceforth apply to you.

In isolated cases, XING members have brought to our attention a warning message that appears while logged in to XING. IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO KNOW: This warning message is not from XING. This is in actual fact a fraud attempt that, according to our current knowledge, operates from the user's computer which is infected with malware. Please do not follow the steps described in the warning message.
How can I recognize this warning message?
In the warning message the fraudsters ask the user of the infected computer to enter their cell phone number in order to activate their allegedly blocked XING account. The user then receives a text message with a download link. They are then led to believe that following this link will install a piece of security software onto their smartphone, which can then actually infect the smartphone. Fraud attempts like this are, for example, described here: http://krebsonsecurity.com/2013/08/a-closer-look-perkele-android-malware-kit/.
Who does this affect?
The warning message has currently only appeared on computers that run Windows operating systems. However, it cannot be ruled out that this malware is able to infect computers that run other operating systems.
What should I do when I see this warning message?
With the situation as it is, we presume that the users' computers are already infected with malware when this message appears. Users who are affected should immediately get their computers checked for malware infections. In the meantime, we recommend that users avoid visiting important online services like banking, shopping, etc., until the malware has been completely removed. If you have already downloaded the software onto your smartphone then this device will also have to be checked and cleaned up. We rely on your help in order to find out more and clarify this fraud attempt: Please let our security team know of any abnormalities or peculiarities as quickly as possible (firstname.lastname@example.com).
We would like to thank the two members who promptly informed us of this fraud attempt.

Roughly three months ago, Apple unveiled iOS 7 at the WWDC conference in San Francisco. XING's iOS team was there and, like everyone else, surprised at the depth of changes that went far beyond throwing away skeuomorphic design elements and making everything flat. The design philosophy itself had shifted: In iOS 7, the user interface defers to the content. Subtle but sophisticated animations replace or clarify navigational elements. Typographical details become more important. And those are only the aspects the eye can see: The days following the WWDC keynote, we learned about changes and enhancements pertaining to the functional core of iOS.
Ready for iOS 7 within weeks
Enthused and fired up, we came back to Hamburg – only to realize that our roadmap was already booked solid for the upcoming months. There was little chance to get an iOS 7 version of our app out of the door by the time iOS 7 would be released. We then convinced our team and product manager that it'd be worth to invest a week for iOS 7 related research. We used this week to evaluate new opportunities for our app and to estimate the time and effort needed to implement them. At the end of the week we were convinced that we could get our XING app iOS 7 ready within a few weeks. And with ready we meant not only a visual adaptation but also the support of new features such as downloading new data in the background and dynamic font size changes. (more…)

XING Beta Labs have been in place for almost two years now, and it gives us an opportunity to present our members with various beta features that they can test. That way, anyone looking to put developmental features through their paces can go there, select the feature they want to try, then test-drive it and send us their feedback. XING Beta Labs were the birthplace of various features we currently offer on the platform such as attachments and the conversation view. But sometimes beta features don't work out and they have to be removed to free up resources for other great ideas, which is why we're going to remove XING Topics from the platform.
We'd like to thank all the members who put a lot of time and effort into test-driving XING Topics over the last few months. During that time we've been busy collecting and evaluating your feedback and performed a number of random tests which allowed us to find out what you liked about the Topics section (e.g. being able to add images and rank topics by popularity) and what you weren't too keen on (e.g. layout of the posts). We always take your feedback into account when developing new features and products, and we'll be re-using a number of the XING Topics features you really liked in other parts of the platform – so keep a lookout for them!
XING Topics will be available until 16 September. Until then you can still view your posts in the 'your posts' tab and copy and paste the ones you'd like to keep to a text file. Alternatively you can use the 'copy and paste view' button to copy and paste all of your posts in one go. After that date, all of your posts will be permanently removed, so if you want to keep them, please make sure you save them somewhere else.
As always, we'll carry on working hard to boost your XING experience, so don't forget to visit our blog again soon.
