Industry needs to take notice of Flame's wakeup call
UK businesses need to start listening to security vendors' warnings
Months have passed since Flame malware was caught targeting Iranian systems. Flame has been dubbed one of the most complex and dangerous to date pieces of malware ever, because of its advanced espionage capabilities.
Numerous vendors have cited Flame's existence as proof that traditional security measures aren't good enough. And now with the numerous other high profile, super-advanced malware appearing, like Gauss, I have to say I can see their point.
The security industry lacks adequate defence mechanisms to guard against such threats. That is alarming.
This was really brought home to me in June during a speech by F-Secure, which called Flame the James Bond of malware, because there is little security vendors can do when faced with its presence. F-Secure made urgent calls for the security industry to beef up its current defence model.
At the London RSA Conference in October, such calls had grown into a full chorus, with old guard security vendors like RSA and Symantec adding their own two cents.
Such vendors have said security against Flame-like threats can be improved immediately if the security industry enlists the help of businesses. Crucially, to combat threats, businesses must be willing to share information with competitors regarding data breaches.
This intelligence will allow IT security firms to crack down on new threats faster, possibly before the hackers can pull the same trick on another business and create widespread damage.
Yet to my amazement, despite the numerous warnings by the security vendors, businesses have been incredibly slow to pick up on the call for change, take action and talk to each one another.
One potential reason for this is that businesses carry an outdated notion that suffering a data breach is something to be ashamed of and hidden at all costs.
The problem is, by taking this head in the sand approach to cyber security, British businesses aren't just hurting themselves, they're also helping give hackers the edge.
Worse still, this problem is only likely to intensify in the future.
Until now, advanced threats like Flame have been state sponsored. But security vendors have warned, time and time again, that it is only a matter of time before criminals start learning from threats like Flame, and start integrating elements of its sophisticated malware into their own attack tools.
In fact, according to RSA, this has already happened. So we have state actors now collaborating with the criminals.
Considering the fact that the bad guys have managed to find some common ground in order to working together, it's pretty amazing that most businesses haven't cottoned on to the benefits of doing the same thing.
Hell, even the UK government started to realise the scale of the problem, with cyber spy GCHQ feeling the need to release a set of cyber guidelines - which surprise, surprise are pretty much in line with the advice security vendors have been giving UK businesses all this time.
While I understand the fact that businesses are justifiably hesitant regarding the security vendors' warnings, considering the current lay of the land, we'd expect them to at least consider a new approach.
Here's hoping it won't take a full blown disaster to knock businesses out of apathy and finally update their defences - though considering their current hesitance, it probably will.

Bridgestone's roots go deep in Akron.
So deep, in fact, that for the last week and a half, workers with the Kent-based Davey Tree Expert Co. have been preparing and moving two 90- to 110-ton trees that were planted on the South Main Street property of Bridgestone Americas — the former Firestone Tire and Rubber Co. — in 1950, when the statue of founder Harvey S. Firestone Sr. was dedicated to mark the 50th anniversary of the beginning of the Akron tire giant.
The black tupelo, or black gum, trees are being relocated about 300 and 600 yards away on Bridgestone Americas property as the company prepares to begin construction of its new, $100 million technical center.
Bridgestone Americas is the U.S. subsidiary of Bridgestone Corp., which purchased Firestone in 1988 for $2.6 billion.
On Tuesday, Davey workers, using what is called a gantry crane that was assembled around the 70-foot-tall, 60-foot-wide tree, moved it out of a 4-foot-deep, hand-dug hole and to its new location. It is expected to be replanted in its new hole today.
A second tree, also 70 feet tall with branches about 40 feet wide, is to be moved Thursday and planted Friday, said Jeff Crites, Davey's district manager out of the South Akron and Canton office and the certified arborist on the Bridgestone Technical Center project.
''We made the decision to save them and move them,'' said Bob Handlos, vice president of product development for Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations LLC.
The trees, he said, are ''really great specimens,'' and it would take a long time for trees to grow to replace them.
He said Bridgestone's share of the technical center project should amount to about $60 million to $65 million, and digging should begin next week. The move-in date for the new building is the end of 2011, he said.
Handlos would not disclose the cost of moving the trees, but called it ''fairly expensive.''

NFL to be Snapchat's sports partner for story explorer feature
(Reuters) - The National Football League had signed on to be the first sports partner for Snapchat's story explorer feature, an NFL spokesman told Reuters on Thursday.
Snapchat, the mobile app where photos, videos and messages disappear in seconds, last month launched Explorer, a curative tool that allows users to flip through clips taken by others on the same subject.
The move is part of Snapchat's deepening relationship with NFL. The two announced a partnership in September allowing Snapchat to provide NFL content to its users globally.

Kerala Map
: is an increasingly popular tourist location with beautiful scenery, blue skies, sincere hospitality and excellent food, yet it remains relatively uncommercialised, so is able to give the visitor a glimpse into the culture and values that still make India a 'different' destination. The people are warm and friendly, many with lifestyles that have changed little over the years, living simply, seemingly unaware of todays mod cons. The atmosphere is calm and gentle; the palm tree providing a living for many and a constant backdrop to the colours and warmth, the sights and sounds that are truly, Kerala.
Hallu Motion
Hallux is no longer a problem. Check!
: 16kms south of Trivandrum airport, Kovalam gives the first time visitor a very soft introduction to India, and a warm re-welcome to returning visitors. English is widely spoken, Western ways understood and catered for. Lighthouse beach is the main area for shops and restaurants with smaller beaches to either side. When you are ready to explore further afield buses, rickshaws and taxis are plentiful and inexpensive. Note though, the standards are not quite European; power cuts can be numerous, the paths steep and uneven, hot water not always available and beach shopping needs some skill in haggling. However, just keep an open mind and you can discover the magic of India everywhere.

Step back from Lighthouse beach and leave the golden sands, the warm Arabian ocean, the varied selection of restaurants (all specializing in freshly cooked fish and vegetarian dishes) the beach sellers offering fresh pineapples, mangoes, papayas, sarongs and local handicrafts; leave the sound of the fishermen pulling in the nights catch and enter the shaded, 'shanti' (peaceful) area of Green Valley. Pass along the path ('beach life' now only five minutes yet a world away) and into Silent Valley. Climb the steps up into the hillside and reach Shanti Bhavan (house of peace) with its magnificent almost endless view of coconut palm trees, the landscape for which Kerala is so famous. The yoga shala is on the roof, covered by dried palm leaves, a cool area surrounded by greenery. It's an ideal place for practising yoga in the land of its origin, with a traditional Indian teacher. Downstairs there is a tranquil massage room in which to leave your stresses far behind as you relax to the natural sounds of nature and have knotted muscles expertly eased. Within the house, are two ensuite twin guest rooms, available for those wishing to experience a 'homestay' style holiday. Karen and Sivan, as your hosts will welcome you into their home and delight in introducing you to local people and friends within the community.

I have very big eyes naturally, but my eye colour is jet black. This lens was my first one, and I fell in love with it. Initially, I felt a little awkward because I was wearing lenses for the first time, but it absolutely changed my look from girl-next-door to partying-queen! I love it. I've experimented with a few other colours too now, but this remains my favorite!

At ICICI Bank Canada (hereinafter referred to as "ICICI Bank", "Bank", "we", "our" or "us"), an important part of our commitment to provide you, as a client of the Bank with excellent service is our respect for your right to privacy. While information is the cornerstone of our ability to provide excellent service, our most important asset is our clients' trust. Your personal information (information that refers to you specifically as an individual) being kept secure, and being used only as you would want us to, is a top priority for us.
ICICI Bank is committed to maintaining the accuracy, confidentiality and security of your personal and financial information. As part of this commitment, we strictly adhere to the following principles:
1. Accountability:
All of our employees are fully committed to maintaining and protecting client information under our control.

Contact information for the Chief Privacy Officer is provided in section 10 of this Client Privacy Policy (hereinafter referred to as the "Privacy Policy" or "Policy").
2. Identifying Purposes:
We identify and document the purposes of collecting personal information of our clients at or before the time such information is collected. The information that we may request will depend on the product(s) or service(s) selected by you.
Some examples of the types of information that we might collect are:

Most of the information comes directly from you when you apply for financial products or services. We may also need information from credit bureaus, income sources and personal references you have provided to us. Obtaining additional information about you from such third parties helps us assess your eligibility for our products/services. Of course, we will obtain consent from you before we contact anyone for information about you and we will only request information that is required for providing the service or product selected by you. If you withhold your consent, the Bank may be unable to assess your application and complete the transaction.

- In keeping with applicable requirements, we may disclose your personal information without requesting your consent to protect and defend ICICI Bank's and its affiliates' rights, interests or property; or, to enforce the terms and conditions of the products or services provided by ICICI Bank; or, to protect the interests of ICICI Bank or its affiliates.
- The Bank may disclose personal information, without your knowledge or consent, to an investigative body when there are reasonable grounds to believe that the information relates to a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada, a province or a foreign jurisdiction that has been, is being or is about to be committed and the information is used for the purpose of investigating that contravention.
- The Bank may use and disclose personal information, without requesting your consent, for the purpose of engaging in a due diligence process for a prospective business transaction where such information is necessary to determine whether to proceed with the transaction.
- Some of our agents, suppliers and service providers may be located outside of Canada. Personal information transferred and stored outside Canada is subject to the laws of those countries and if so, may be shared with foreign authorities as required by valid demands, requests or orders by courts, regulators, government authorities and law enforcement authorities in those countries.
Your personal information will only be retained for the period of time required to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected or as may be required by relevant laws, whichever is greater. Following this period of time, your personal information will either be destroyed or erased.
If you have not opted out of the use or disclosure of your personal information for marketing purposes, we may also use your personal information for marketing additional products and services including special promotional offers, which may be of interest to you.

8. Openness and Your Refusal or Withdrawal of Consent:
At your request, we will make available additional information concerning the policies and practices relating to the management of your information.
We will also explain your options of refusing or withdrawing consent to the collection, use or release of your information, and we will record and respect your choices.
In most cases you are free to refuse or withdraw your consent at any time. You may do so by contacting the branch or office where your account is held. Our staff will be pleased to explain your options and any consequences of refusing or withdrawing your consent, and record your choices.
As earlier noted under the "Consent" heading, if you don't want us to share information within the ICICI Bank Group of companies or contact you with product information, you can tell us so at any time. However, agreeing to let us share your information within businesses of ICICI Bank Group may help us to serve you better.
9. Client Access:
At any time, you can find out what personal information we have, what it is being used for and to whom it has been disclosed. However, in some specific circumstances, disclosure of your personal information to you can or must by law be denied, for example, when:
- The information is protected by solicitor/ client privilege;

- Disclosure would reveal confidential commercial information.
We will do our best to provide the required information to you within 30 days and will provide an explanation if we are unable to meet your request. A fee may be charged for certain inquiries due to the time and resources required, in which case we will provide an estimate of the amount in advance.

Privacy Breach Notification
A privacy breach occurs when there is unauthorized access to or the collection, use or disclosure of personal information. There are several possible causes of a privacy breach including but not limited to stolen data, mistaken disclosures, faulty business procedures or operational break-downs. When we come to know about the occurrence of a privacy breach the following steps will be taken:
- Breach Containment and Preliminary Assessment
The Bank will take immediate steps to contain any potential breach and thereby reduce the risk of re-occurrence by taking such steps as putting on hold the existing process, recovering the records and shutting down the affected systems temporarily. In case of a breach, the Bank will designate an appropriate individual to conduct the preliminary breach assessment. If a breach appears to involve theft or other criminal activity the appropriate law enforcement authority will be immediately notified.
- Risk Evaluation
Subsequent to the preliminary assessment, the Bank will assess the risks associated with the breach. The steps may include checking the extent of involvement of personal information, the cause and extent of the breach, identification of individuals affected by the breach and the assessment of foreseeable harm from the breach.
- Notification
The Bank recognizes that notification can be an important mitigation strategy that has the potential to benefit both the organization and the individuals affected by a breach. The notification procedures involve the consideration of factors (such as legal and contractual obligations, risk of physical harm if any, risk of identity theft if any) relevant for notification. The risk assessment assists in identifying who should be notified and when and how the notification should happen. All such notifications will be done by the Chief Privacy Officer of the Bank. The notification will include appropriate information including but not limited to information about the incident, the extent of personal information involved in the breach and contact information of the federal Privacy Commissioner.
Depending on the nature of the breach, in addition to notifying affected individuals, the Bank may decide to notify the federal Privacy Commissioner as well with all relevant information. The Bank will do this in all cases if required by law. Further on a case to case basis, the Bank will evaluate whether the notification should be made to the police, insurers or others, professional or other regulatory bodies, credit card companies and financial institutions or credit reporting agencies.
- Prevention of Future Breaches
Once the Bank has taken the requisite immediate steps, it will conduct root cause analysis with a view to preventing a re-occurrence of the breach. The level of efforts to be put in prevention will depend upon the significance and extent of the breach and whether it was a systemic breach or an isolated instance. The preventive steps may include the conducting of a security audit, a review of applicable policies and procedures, a review of employee training practices and a review of service delivery partners.
Updating the Privacy Policy
Any changes to our Privacy Policy and information handling practices shall be acknowledged in the Privacy Policy in a timely manner. We may add, modify or remove portions of the Privacy Policy when we feel it is appropriate to do so.

Guardian Weekly podcast: Shakespeare's first theatre found
Pakistan's president, Pervez Musharraf, has resigned. The man whom George Bush famously referred to as "the general" – because he didn't know his name – has stepped down before the certain prospect of being impeached. The Guardian's Clare Catford talks to Pakistan correspondent Saeed Shah about Musharraf's farewell speech, and Dr Farzana Sheikh from the London thinktank Chatham House weighs the impact of his departure.
As tensions between Russia and Georgia remain high, the Russians have been reluctant to withdraw their troops. Luke Harding reports. Meanwhile, Nato foreign ministers are meeting to decide whether to seek sanctions against Russia. Ian Traynor, the Guardian's Brussels correspondent, reports. Tim Judah, author of a forthcoming book entitled Kosovo: What Everyone Needs to Know, talks about the future of Georgia's breakaway republics Abkhazia and South Ossetia, and draws important parallels with the newly independent Kosovo.
In 1996 the voters of California made it legal to use marijuana medicinally to treat chronic pain and other ailments. But no one seems to have told the federal Drug Enforcement Agency. Dan Glaister reports.
In the process of planning a new theatre in Shoreditch, east London, archaeologists uncovered the foundations of a 16th-century building. It turned out to be another theatre, the one where Shakespeare first made his mark. Taryn Nixon, director of the Museum of London Archaeology Service, explains how the theatre was discovered. Dominic Dromgoole, the artistic director of London's Globe Theatre, explains what the discovery tells us about Shakespeare and his time.

The Haunting of Oliver Hartfield
The bedroom stank of fear and depression. Out of all the apartments in the building, Oliver's was the most dreadful. For he himself was so filled with fear that anyone who dared to step into the room would probably be greeted with a paralysing chill down their spine. The blinds were closed and the lights off. Oliver was no alone in total darkness, ready to accept any death that would be handed to him tonight. His thoughts were focussed entirely on death. What will death feel like? What will death sound like? What will become of me? These questions plagued Oliver's sickened mind like an entire species of virus suddenly targeted Oliver and Oliver only.
His smartphone rang, emitting the only light source in the entire room. Unlocking it, he found that it was a text... from Ryan's number. "Hi, Ollie :) Miss me yet?"
Like any guilt-ridden murderer, Oliver was experiencing a confrontation with his victim. "All in your head, all in your head", he muttered, barely holding on to the remainder of his sanity.
He threw the phone across the room. It hit the wall with a smack and fell to the carpet floor. A second text arrived, causing Oliver to flinch. He initially refused to go get the phone and read the text, but curiosity eventually, forced Oliver to give in. "That wasn't very nice, Oliver :P Just answer me, huh?"
At this point, Oliver's hands were trembling uncontrollably. "youre dead ryan dfead dead dead stop texting ,me", Oliver managed to reply, through shaky finger movement.
"Dead? Of course I am. But... you're not."
Oliver gasped and threw the phone once more. A new text came in moments later. "You seriously have to stop doing that, Ollie. Seriously, this thing's expensive."
"what doyu want form eme?"
"Well... mainly an apology."
"im sorry ryan, okay? I'm sorry. I was overwhelmed byt hr desir eto live, and i'm sorry, but you need to stop texitng me RIGHT NOW."
"I never knew that you were scared of ghosts, Oliver. Whenever we watched those horror movies... you were the only one who didn't scream. Remember?"
Oliver felt like screaming then and there. He hoped that maybe, just maybe, if he screamed loud enough, he would shatter the last bit of sanity in his brain. Maybe then, he could live the rest of his short life in peace, away from all of this psychotic torture. Ryan. Dead Ryan, come back to haunt him. It was a fitting finale before the end. Oliver deserved this, he really did and he knew it, too. Although these last few days had been fixated on his desire to outlive his brothers, there seemed nothing more tranquil or desirable to him at that moment than death.
"But enough teasing you, Oliver. I'm here for a reason, after all."
"and what reason is ttat/."
"You can stop trembling, Ollie, it's embarrassing. I'm merely here to tell you that the witch is going to refuse Ethan's offer. It's most likely that he's going to die."
All of the anguish and horror that Oliver had felt before vanished. He was suddenly very calm, very composed, and desired to live once more. "That's great news, Ryan. Thank you."
"Aren't you going to save him?"
Oliver put down his phone. Save Ethan? Why would Oliver save Ethan now? This was fantastic. Everything was falling into place. With Ethan dead, Oliver could have his final 31 years at last. Why would Ryan even suggest that?
"April of 1995. We were all three years old. One day, you found a knife in the kitchen and played with it. I ran by and tried to take it from you, causing it to fly up into the air. The knife would've fallen onto you and killed you, but Ethan came between you and the knife somehow. He took the knife to the stomach and spent a year in the hospital, constantly flickering between life and death."
Oliver didn't have any recollection of this event, but he knew it had to be true. Ethan had always been selfless like that. It became clear to Oliver that if the witch was planning to kill Ethan, he would have to attempt a rescue. If the brothers were doomed to die, they would die together, at the exact same time. That's how it was planned from the start, after all. But... Ethan still betrayed Oliver. He attempted to trade his soul for more life. That was unforgivable. If the witch was going to kill Ethan now, then he deserved it... right?
He got up from his bed and opened the blinds, letting some light into the room. It was early morning and the first rays of sunrise were leaking in. He then shut his phone off and got dressed. Even without any sleep, Oliver was surprisingly energetic. Inside the drawer of his bedside table, Oliver found the ticket for a tour of London that Ethan gave him just two days ago. He picked up the small tokens and slipped them into his wallet. "So, this is my decision... I really hope it ends well", the nineteen year old murmured to himself.
Oliver took the next available flight to the UK at around nine in the morning. His flight was decent, apart from the typical wailing babies and generally disruptive people. Four hours after the plane landed in London, Oliver was at the gates of the Onyx Woods. It was four in the morning local time now. Once again the first rays of sunlight were beginning to bloom. It's been a day. Is it possible that Ethan's already dead? Maybe he is and this is just going to end in a very pointless death... too late now.
He opened the gates to the forest and took his first few steps inside. The leaves on the trees were practically black, something unheard of.

Death, the Perfect ClimaxMature
Her body felt smooth and soft to my exploring fingertips. She moaned softly as my fingers danced down her stomach towards her sex. I watched her in her ecstasy; I took pride where pride was due.
When one becomes as practiced as I at romancing women, it becomes an art. This was merely the first step to my art.
I explored her body; diligently searching out her most sensitive of spots. I knew when I had found them. A delicious gasp escaped her trembling lips. A testimony to my skill.
Her back arched and her toes curled as climax came upon her. It was time to play the final act.
I continued to lead her deeper into sensuality as I removed the hammer that resided beneath my bed. Her eyes were closed in her orgasm; she wouldn't see her last moment descend upon her.
My hammer fell and the claw gouged deeply into her sternum. A gasp renewed my ecstasy. It wasn't a loving gasp like those that had preceded it, but one of pain and betrayal. The most beautiful sound she had made all night.
I pulled down violently on the hammer. Her rib cage was torn open and blood spouted out in a most fantastic display. Her warmth spread across my body and I basked in it.
I whispered sweet nothings to her as I watched the life leak from her eyes; I held her tight as she took her last breath. Consoling her with every convulsive jerk that overtook her fragile frame.

A Monterey man has been charged in a Monday battery incident.
David Zachary, 40, allegedly battered his girlfriend. The victim told police about the incident the day after the event. She explained that she was not allowed to leave the house or make any phone calls so she couldn't report the incident right away. She was allowed to go to work the next day and after she picked up her children from school and day care, she went to the Starke County Sheriff's Department to report the incident. The victim stated that Zachary reportedly became mad at her the day before and struck her. The victim's children told police that Zachary allegedly said that if their mother called the police, he would kill her.
Police went to the residence and arrested Zachary. He appeared in Starke Circuit Court for his initial hearing and he has been formally charged with Domestic Battery in the Presence of a Child, Criminal Confinement, Intimidation and Interference with Reporting a Crime. Bond has been set at $50,000 and he is not to have any contact with the victim.

Global Focused Strategies
Global Focused Strategies (GFS) is an absolute return portfolio that aims to generate positive performance each year, whether markets are rising or falling. It targets a return of cash* +7.5% annually, measured over rolling three-year periods.
To achieve this performance target, GFS combines our best investment ideas at both a macro and micro level. For example, GFS can take advantage of our macroeconomic insights in the same way that our other absolute return portfolios do. Additionally, as a more focused portfolio, GFS can implement strategies at an individual security level within equities, fixed income, real estate and money markets.
Therefore, GFS has broad investment freedom to invest across asset classes and seek a variety of investment strategies that we believe will add value over our two- to three-year timeframe. At the same time, GFS must conform to rigorous risk constraints – we expect it to deliver the target return with 6% to 12% volatility or, more broadly, one-half to two-thirds of the risk of global equities. When implementing investment positions, GFS can make extensive use of derivatives in order to both enhance returns and mitigate risk.
Benefits of Global Focused Strategies
- Fusion of micro and macro views – we construct GFS by combining multi-asset macro views with specialist security-specific insights covering equities, fixed interest, real estate and money markets.
- High return objective – GFS targets an absolute return typical of aggressive investments, which is substantially higher than the expected long-term equity-risk premium.
- Uncorrelated returns – GFS has low correlation with assets such as equities and our other absolute return portfolios. It can therefore be a useful component for investors seeking to diversify their portfolios and enhance returns.
