Identifying the Remnants of a Virus Outbreak or Spyware Infestation
Viruses and spyware have different underlying technologies, but they have a common bond once they infest a system. Variants of MyDoom, Sasser, Beagle, NetBus, SubSeven, and other Trojan horses create open ports, providing backdoor communication conduits into infected systems.
This scan will show how the entire network can be easily scanned to locate a single spyware or virus remnant. This search will make use of unique ping methods, port searches, and reverse DNS lookup settings.
Identifying Virus, Spyware, and Trojan Horse Remnants
- Nmap Ping type: If ICMP is unfiltered in an organization's network, an ICMP ping (-PE) would be an efficient way of identifying an active system. If ICMP is actively filtered, a more applicable ping type should be considered. Since this scan will be working through a large number of IP addresses, an nmap ping will be an important method of determining a remote device's availability. Disabling nmap's ping option (-P0) should be used only as a last resort in a scan with a large number of IP addresses.
- Nmap Scan Type: Since this is a simple port availability test, a TCP SYN scan (-sS) or a UDP scan (-sU) would be an effective scan type. Different spyware remnants can open TCP ports or UDP ports, and occasionally both types will need to be specified. This example will assume that both types will be scanned.
- IP Addresses: The IP addresses for these types of scans will usually be a range of addresses, using nmap's wildcards and naming conventions. For ease of use, these IP addresses should be listed in a file that can be included with the –iLoption.
- Port Ranges: This particular scan will only need to scan a few ports from each device that are associated with a specific spyware infestation. If both TCP and UDP scan types are specified, then the –p option should include U:<udpports>,T:<tcpports>.
- Reverse DNS: If a large number of hosts will be scanned over a long timeframe, it may be helpful to require a reverse DNS on each scanned device (-R). However, this can create delays during the scan process, and it may not be required if the IP addresses on the network rarely change. In these cases, a more efficient scan would disable the reverse DNS resolution process (-n).
- Version Detection: If a Trojan horse is using a port number that is commonly open on the network, it may be helpful to include a version detection option (-sV) to help identify the application type running on the remote device. This will slow down the scan significantly (especially if UDP scanning is active), so use this option only if necessary.
- Time to Live: If this scan shouldn't traverse a WAN or slow network link, the --ttl option may be useful. This would prevent the scan from using slower WAN links, although it may be more reliable to add the remote IP addresses to the exclude list if the exact network configuration isn't known.
The nmap command line would be similar to this (disregard the line break):
# nmap –vv –PE –sS –sU –iL input.lst --excludefile banned.lst –p U:31337,T:6713 –n -oA trojansAfter the scan is complete, the grepable output file (trojans.gnmap) can be searched for the word "open" to determine if any open ports were identified.

Agribusiness and rural services provider
Elders said on Friday the review would not examine strategy and operations where Elders Forestry was "well placed".
Elders managing director
"While our operations are trending positively, there are a number of events and developments that could impact assets valuations across the industry, including Elders Forestry," Mr Jackman said.
"Clearly, shareholder interests will be best served by an up-to-date, independent and holistic assessment of the asset implications of these developments rather than an ad-hoc piecemeal approach.
"Accordingly, we have decided to expand and accelerate reviews that would ordinarily be performed so we can get an informed, cohesive answer on what the developments within the sector and in Elders Forestry mean for shareholders."
Elders said developments that could affect Elders Forestry assets included the current and unprecedented levels of plantation and forest land for sale, uncertainty over the future of Forest Enterprises Australia, and reviews of plantation growth rates and yield estimates for specific regions.
Elders Forestry assets to be reviewed include plantation land; income and income anticipated from Elders' own plantation trees, the company's shareholdings, grower loans of $27 million and goodwill.
Elders also will assess land values for 100 per cent of its 47,000 hectares of freehold plantation land under the review.
Elders said the review is not expected to present any implications for the company's compliance with its financial covenants.
Elders said it anticipates receiving a final report by the end of April 2010.
Elders has also decided that its 13.5 per cent stake in Forest Enterprises Australia is "non-core" and will be classified as an asset held for sale.
"As a result, the calculation of the carrying value of this asset will be required to move to an equity value," Elders said.
"A charge of $26.7 million will be made to effect this change and bring the value of this asset from the $32.4 million in the balance sheet as at 30 September, 2009 to the revised value of $5.7 million based on FEA's most recent stock price."
The charge will be recognised in Elders' 2010 financial year accounts as a non-recurring item.

(CNSNews.com) – Far from isolated in the international community, the Iranian regime looks set to benefit from political developments in Turkey and Lebanon this week, even as President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad joins Asia's most powerful leaders for a summit in Central Asia.
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's election victory and the long-delayed formation of a government in Lebanon under a Hezbollah-endorsed prime minister were enthusiastically welcomed in Tehran.
Under Erdogan, NATO member Turkey has become a supportive partner of Iran, and his success Sunday in winning a third term received prominent coverage in official and semi-official Iranian media on Monday.
"Under his leadership, Turkey has steadily distanced itself from the United States and Israel and showed an increasing disinclination to participate in U.S.-NATO adventurism in various parts of the world," wrote a Tehran Times op-ed writer, noting that Erdogan had also deepened ties with the Islamic world, including Iran.
"All this has made Erdogan a popular leader in the Islamic world and the most successful prime minister at home."
Hezbollah's growing influence in Beirut also will be to Iran's advantage – not least of all in the U.N. Security Council, where Lebanon occupies a non-permanent seat until the end of the year.
Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi congratulated Prime Minister Najib Mikati on the formation of the new government, characterizing it as a victory against Israel, and pledging Iran's readiness to comprehensively strengthen bilateral ties.
Mikati was appointed prime minister after the Iranian-backed Hezbollah and its allies earlier this year toppled the Western-backed government, over a dispute relating to the international investigation into the assassination of former prime monster Rafik Hariri.
The good news for Tehran from Turkey and Lebanon coincides with Ahmadinejad's invitation to attend a summit Wednesday marking the tenth anniversary of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), in the Kazakhstan capital, Astana.
Iran plays an "influential and determining" role in international developments, Ahmadinejad told reporters shortly before leaving Tehran on Tuesday morning. Apart from attending the SCO summit he is also due to talks on the sidelines with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Chinese President Hu Jintao, the Fars news agency reported.
The SCO is a regional security grouping dominated by Moscow and Beijing, formed with the stated aims of countering "terrorism, extremism and separatism" in the vast, energy-rich region encompassing the two giants and the countries between them.
Although SCO officials and member governments routinely stress that the organization and its activities are not aimed at, or a threat to, "any third party," Russia in particular used it at times to challenge U.S. military basing rights in Central Asia.
Created in its present form in 2001, the SCO may soon extend membership beyond its current six members – Russia, China, and the Central Asian states of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.
Four countries – Iran, Pakistan, India and Mongolia – have held observer status since soon after the organization was established, and the former three have applied for full membership.
Although talk of welcoming new membership has circulated for several years without any progress made, the SCO is now taking steps in that direction.
A recent pre-summit meeting of SCO foreign ministers approved a memorandum of commitments for countries applying for membership, for adoption in Astana.
Despite historical animosities among some SCO members and aspiring members, the grouping has succeeded in establishing itself over the past decade as a regional player with staying power.
In another development that could be significant for future U.S. interests in the region, Afghan President Hamid Karzai, who has attended previous SCO summits as a guest, has expressed interest in getting observer status – presumably as a stepping-stone towards eventual full membership.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the Afghan request would be considered at Wednesday's summit.

I've had a full mastectomy and the reconstruction of my breast was made using the fat of my tummy.I'm happy with the outcome, breast wise, but I'm really unhappy about my pubic area.It becomes bigger.I really dont't want to undergo another surgery, I've had 3 surgeries cancer related but I feel this is a problem that undermine my confidence.My body is full of scars my breast is far from normal and on top of that my pubic area seems almost masculine.What can I do about it?Thanks
Is There Any Exercise to Fllaten the Pubis Area After a Tummy Tuck?
Doctor Answers 9
A deformed, masculine like mons following TRAM flap breast reconstruction
Photos would have been helpful to better ascertain your particular situation.
Has your mons been pulled too high?
Is it too prominent?
Is it deformed in shape?
Any one of these can be fairly easily addressed with a procedure that would be far less in scope than your reconstruction. It could involve some liposuction or possibly reshaping of your mons.
See a local plastic surgeon for more specific and accurate advice.
Learn more: http://www.turkeltaub.com
The mons can remain swollen for many months after surgery. Usually if there is any fluid build up after surgery then it collects in the mons area. However if the swelling does not go down then the only alternative is to liposuction this area. Swelling after the liposuction can also take a long time to go down but it is worth it.

Pubic Area after Tummy Tuck or Breast Reconstruction
Thank you for the question.
Thank you for the question.
For many patients undergoing tummy tuck surgery or TRAM flap breast reconstruction the pubic area may be an area of concern after surgery. This area may be large ( prominent) , ptotic (low), or deflated. Therefore, I think it is important to address the pubic area when performing the tummy tuck or TRAM flap surgery.
When planning these procedures it is possible to keep the incision low enough that it serves to "raise" the pubic area to some degree. I like to plan this incision when patients are wearing the "cut" of swimming suit that they plan to wear after the surgery.
During these procedures the pubic area may then be "lifted" and/or defatted ( either directly or with liposuction) as the specific patient's needs indicate. Care is taken to avoid over thinning the area since some coverage of the pubic area is important (for example for padding during intercourse).
Drains are often brought out through hair bearing areas.
You are very correct in that if the pubic area is not treated during the tummy tuck or TRAM procedure it may be a source of dissatisfaction afterwards. Revisionary surgery may be necessary to treat the area. This may involve further excision of skin and subcutaneous tissue or liposuction surgery depending on the situation.
I hope this helps.

Enlarged Pubic Area
While recovering from an abdominoplasty or a TRAM breast reconstruction, the pubic area and genitals can remain swollen for some time, due to their dependent positions. If retained fluid is the cause of this pubic swelling, the edema will resolve in time and no exercises will speed up this process. Massage and support garments may help control and reduce swelling, but sufficient time to heal is essential. If you are many months out from the procedure, this prominence is likely excess fatty tissue and liposuction would help to improve it. Your reconstructive surgeon can certainly address this issue; it is very common to revise certain areas after the breast mound has been created. Without photos, your description does not sound like a hernia or abdominal wall laxity issue. I hope this information helps.
Treatment for prominent pubis following tummy-tuck
Following a tummy tuck the pubis may become pronounced. This is not uncommon. Unless it is due to swelling which should subside after months after surgery the treatment of choice is liposuction which is fairly simple and doesn't require much scarring at all. In fact a small incision can be made in the tummy tuck scar. There is no exercise to decrease it. This surgery can usually be done under local anesthesia and is a very caliber procedure in comparison to your mastectomy reconstruction.
Flattening the Swollen Pubis Area After a Tummy Tuck?
The Mons Pubis can become more visible and more prominent after an Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) or after breast reconstruction with tummy tissue (TRAM flap). The only recognized effective way to reduce its volume and prominence is through the use of liposuction. The liposuction can be used through the same scar as the Tummy Tuck.
Dr. Peter A Aldea
Pubic swelling after tram flap can be caused by a few things
Sometimes the pubic area does not change after this type of abdominal operation but only gets more noticeable when the excess abdominal skin is removed. In this case liposuction often times is a good solution. If it is just postoperative swelling, which is common since the pubic area is where swelling settles after this operation because of gravity, this will go away with time. You should ask your plastic surgeon for options because quite often it can be improved.
Pubic swelling after reconstruction or tummy tuck
Pubic swelling may ocur after a TRAM flap breast reconstruction or a tummy tuck. It is usually associated with some extra fatty tissue that you may not have been aware was present before the surgery. Often after a TRAM flap it is helpful to to perform liposuction of the abdomen to improve the overall appearance of the tummy. This may include the pubic area. This can be done with a local but is often better performed with a little bit of sedation or twilight. The goal of a TRAM flap is to create a nice breast, which it seems to have done.

Dane Cook Blocks Performance At Boston Strong Concert From Live Stream
Comedian Dane Cook made an appearance at the Concert For Boston, but unless you were at the TD Garden, you didn't get to see any of it.
We know that there were issues with the live stream at the Boston Strong concert on Thursday night, but that had nothing to do with not being able to see Dane Cook's performance. The stand up comedian banned his part of the show from the live stream. He tried to explain why via twitter.
Hey everyone sorry my set was not a part of the live stream or televised! I didn't want any of the new material to hit the airwaves yet!

Despite Cook's honestly, people didn't really like what they had heard. Cook has been surrounded by rumors of 'joke stealing' for years, and many people used that as ammunition to strike back at Dane.

Loyola Men's Soccer - Last Time Out
The Greyhounds had multiple scoring opportunities against the Red Flash, but were unable to convert any of them into goals, as Saint Francis' goalkeeper came up with five saves.
In addition, junior Diego McQuestion drew a foul just outside of the box in the final minutes of overtime, but sophomore Connor Thompson 's free kick bounced off the cross bar and the Red Flash cleared the ball to preserve the scoreless draw.
MAAC Defensive Player Of The Week
Junior goalkeeper Thurman Van Riper was named the MAAC Defensive Player of the Week.
Van Riper recorded three saves to pick up his first collegiate shutout in Loyola's season opening double-overtime scoreless draw at Saint Francis (Pa.) on Saturday.
La Salle Men's Soccer
Joe Farrell was tabbed the Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Week after netting the game-winning goal just 45 seconds into overtime in La Salle's come-from-behind 3-2 victory over Drexel.
Farrell was also credited with the assist on the game-tying goal with just 36 seconds remaining in regulation.
Farrell and Jason Plumhoff each have three points this season, while Mike Stanton has the Explorer's third score this season.
In goal, John McCarthy has played all 91 mins, making six saves and allowing two goals.
Series vs. The Explorers
The Greyhounds are 7-0-0 when facing La Salle, however the two programs have not met in men's soccer since 1991 - when the Explorers competed in the MAAC.
In the first meeting in 1982, Loyola won 5-2.
Between then and 1991, the two met five times in the regular season and twice in the championship game of the MAAC Tournament (1989 and 1990).

     This is partly shameless self-promotion, but it's also a really good resource for learning to solder, and teaching to solder.

Me and Jeff "Mightyohm" Keyzer <http://www.mightyohm.com/> and Andie Nordgren <http://log.andie.se/> finally finished our complete "Soldering Is Easy!" comic book. I'm way excited about it. It's fun, and funny, easy to read, and I hope will make it really easy for anyone and everyone to learn to solder, even if they've never made anything before.
http://mightyohm.com/files/soldercomic/FullSolderComic_20110409.pdf

This is part of the book that me and Jeff are writing about How to Make Cool Things With Microcontrollers (For People Who Know Nothing), to be published later this year by No Starch Press <http://nostarch.com/>. (This is also the first official public announcement that we're writing our book!)

The complete comic is open source (Creative Commons BY SA -- attribution and share alike), and the full-res version is available on Jeff's website, at the link given above. We encourage people to download it, copy it, learn from it, teach with it, translate it, and do whatever they like with it. More info, including comic frames without text to make it easier for translating is available on Jeff's website:
http://mightyohm.com/blog/2011/04/soldering-is-easy-comic-book/

The old single-page comic reference sheet (good for reminding you how to solder after learning how) is now in 6 languages, which are also all open source, and all free for the download on my website:

According to the New York Times, India's Central Bureau of Investigation (the rough equivalent of the U.S. FBI) has completed its investigation of the outsourcing company Satyam Computer Services and charged nine people: six people from Satyam Computer Services, two suspended auditors from PricewaterhouseCoopers, and an outside adviser. The charges are "criminal conspiracy, cheating, cheating by personification, forgery of valuable security, forgery for the purpose of cheating, using a forged document as genuine, falsification of accounts and for causing disappearance of evidence."
When this story broke back in January, I hazarded an opinion that Satyam's fraud was a black eye for Indian outsourcing. If the fraud was limited to Satyam and the CBI has been thorough, then perhaps only Satyam was involved. I still wonder about the other Indian outsourcing companies, however: If financial oversight was lacking at Satyam, how are the other Indian outsourcing companies demonstrating that they are above reproach?

One of the new Whidbey features Joe Stegman talked about
at the PDC was Client Settings. This is a feature I have spent a lot of time
on in Whidbey, so I thought I would talk a little bit about it.
Very often, if you are writing a client app (also for web apps, but let me focus on
client for now), you need the ability to store some settings. These settings
are often user preferences, like Form size and location, look and feel of
various controls, toolbar positions, last read entry etc. etc. These could
also be more application specific things like connection strings and resource paths. In
.NET Framework v1.0 and v1.1, there are several ways to achieve this - using dynamic
properties, writing your own configuration
section to store stuff into the application config file or storing the settings
in a separate file, possibly in XML format, and parsing the content yourself. Ofcourse,
then there is the traditional store for application settings - the Windows registry.
Each of these, however, has some limitations. Dynamic properties support a limited
range of types and are read only. Writing a configuration section isn't very easy
- you need to do all the parsing, merging between levels and validation yourself.
Storing settings into an independent file means you need to management the deployment
of that file yourself, besides, ofcourse, having to do the parsing, defining
what schema to use and so on. The registry too isn't the right place to store settings
in many cases.
So, if you want to store settings today, you need to put in considerable effort to
do it right. The Configuration
Management Application Block solves some of these problems for you today, and
is pretty cool, but in Whidbey, we are taking a big step forward and are trying
to design a model which makes it super easy to consume settings in your application.
What's more, the core parts of this model are common to web and client apps, so there
is more consistency in how you store and access settings across different kinds of
At the core of the new settings infrastructure are two abstract classes - SettingsBase
and SettingsProvider. SettingsBase hides the storage details way from the application
developer and exposes an easy mechanism to read, write and save settings. The SettingsProvider
is actually responsible for persisting these settings. How it persists them is its
own choice - SettingsBase doesn't really care. It could store them in a local file, a
database or retrieve them through a web service, for example. In each case, the
way the application consumes the settings remains the same.
The ApplicationSettingsBase class Joe talked about adds value to SettingsBase and
makes it even more easier to create your own settings. Essentially, in this model,
settings are nothing but properties on classes that are decorated with a bunch of
attributes that describe them.
Here is a how a simple settings class would look:
public class MySettings : ApplicationSettingsBase {
[UserScopedSetting] // varies by user
[DefaultSettingValue("Blue")] // use this if no value is stored
public Color MyFormColor {
get {
(Color) this["MyFormColor"];
set {
= value;
[ApplicationScopedSetting] //shared by all users
public Point FooLocation {
get {
(Point) this["FooLocation"];
set {
= value;
and then consuming these settings is equally staightforward:
myForm1.BackColor = MySettings.MyFormColor;
MySettings.FooLocation = myControl1.Location;
Its as simple as that! You can read/write settings of arbitrary types (which the provider can
serialize, ofcourse) with just a few simple lines of code. By default, for client
apps, we will ship a provider that can store settings into the application configuration
files (we are extending the configuration system to store user specific stuff too)
without any extra effort on the application developer's part!
That's not it, though. This model is also powerful for those who have more requirements.
You can write your own custom provider that stores settings wherever it wants. You
can exercise more control over how the default provider serializes its settings. You
can define your own attributes that only your provider understands - ApplicationSettingsBase
will pass the metadata over to the provider. You can group your settings into a bunch
of different classes, map settings to different providers, bind the settings to properties
of your UI/business objects through data binding and so on and so forth. If you wish
to write your own configuration section, the ASP.NET team has made that much easier
That's not all we have planned - there is more, including great design time support
in Visual Studio and the concept of component settings.
More on all this as we approach Whidbey Beta!

For many years, gold has been regarded as a poor catalyst due to its chemical inertness towards reactive molecules such as oxygen and hydrogen. The interest in using gold in catalysis has increased during the last 20 years, since Haruta reported the surprisingly high activity in CO oxidation at low temperature for small (3–5 nm) gold particles supported on various oxides.
Since then, gold nanostructured catalysts have attracted, rapidly growing attention, due to their potential applicability in various reactions of industrial and environment interest. The catalytic applications of gold have been, indeed, explored in several processes, such as NO removal, catalytic combustion of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC), hydrotreatment and chemical processing, and purification of hydrogen for fuel cell applications. Moreover, gold catalysts are, nowadays, employed as air-cleaning devices, for respiratory protection (gas masks), as sensors to detect individual poisonous or flammable gases, as well as deodorizers. Gold catalysts with low-temperature activity towards CO and hydrocarbons oxidation are suitable also for vehicles exhaust gas treatment, especially during the cold start period. Accordingly, at the end of 2007 the company Nanostellar announced the development of a diesel exhaust catalyst using a first catalytic component based on gold alloyed with palladium as the active component for CO oxidation. Nevertheless, despite the extensive recent efforts addressing the extraordinary catalytic behavior of gold nanoparticles, the attainment of the best performing supported gold catalyst is still a challenge and the origin of the structure sensitivity of Au catalytic activity is yet to be completely unravelled. The main reason for this is ascribed to the multiplicity of factors influencing the catalytic activity, including the size of the Au clusters, the oxidation state of gold, the nature of the support material, the Au-support interface, and the preparation method. The catalytic performances of gold nanoparticles have been correlated, in turn, with electronic (quantum size effect, oxidation state), structural and support (defects, perimeter interface) effects, but a consensus has not been reached. Despite the lack of consensus, in my opinion, the research in this field has reached by now a satisfactory level of knowledge and I believe that the papers published in this "Gold Catalysts" special issue give an overview of the most important developments in the field.
I am honored to be the Guest Editor for this thematic issue including 14 papers (see contents list). Gratifyingly, several of the leaders within this area have contributed articles and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their excellent contributions. I would like to thank also the many reviewers who helped me in the evaluation of the manuscripts.
The present issue offers a wide array of articles dealing with Gold Catalysts. It comprises 5 reviews and 9 research articles. The first review article by Sun
The role of support effects on the catalytic activity of gold clusters for H2 dissociation was addressed by Lyalin
Two contributions focus on the effect of the support on the activity of gold for CO oxidation. In the first paper, Centeno and coworkers [
Two papers, by Koga
The water-gas shift reaction at low-temperature was studied by two groups, Romero and coworkers [
A novel preparation method based on bimetallic carbonyl cluster salts was successfully applied by Albonetti
The activity of Au over Ce-Zr-Co mixed oxides for CO oxidation and ethanol steam reforming was described by Pitchon
In conclusion, the Gold Catalysts special issue underscores the ongoing importance of gold based catalysts focusing on the influence of different parameters on the properties as well as on the catalytic applications of such systems.

Re: "We've productised our research in two ways"
I think 'productionated' has a more snappy feel to it.

I think 'productionated' has a more snappy feel to it.
Many years ago (about 1996), I would pass away rainy lunchbreaks by exploring the company network by doing directory traversals, up from where I was to where I probably wasn't supposed to go. (As someone who wasn't an 'IT person', even I was amazed at how lax that was.) One day I found a stash of soft-core porn (beach 'n' bikini and some lingerie stuff) in a mapped drive that seemed to be an IT function area. I quickly got out of there and made a mental note never to go there again.
A short time later, word went round that people were using too much space for personal files and it had to stop (e.g. personal letters, domestic spreadsheets, etc.) Individually they may not have been much "but it all adds up you know and it's really not what you're here for", as the local IT manager told us with a wagging finger.
I quietly told him, "I'll delete my spreadsheets and Visio drawings when the hundreds of Megabytes of soft-core porn is removed". He said "What?!", so I took him to my desk and showed him the collection. He made snorting noises and stormed away. The porn cache had gone by the next day and I was never asked to delete my 'personal' files.
"The BND helped the NSA with spying on European ministers and enterprises, without anyone in the German parliament being aware of this.
BND bosses didn't pass on their findings to the Chancellor's Office ... "
The security services of a country acted against the interests of that country and its close allies while keeping its activities a secret from its own government. How weird is that?
If somebody who worked for me did that to me, I'd drag their sorry arse over hot coals before booting it out of the door; unless of course they had some serious deep dirt on me. Hmm......
As well as sensible paranoia, I like to keep the battery charge up rather that drain it for no good reason. If I want to check e-mail, I'll turn mobile data on. The last time I tried to use free WiFi, I saw banner adverts for the WiFi provider across the top of the screen on every browser page.
It's been done before. (Of course it has).
.... but it has no precious things inside.
.... on choosing a picture that relates to the subject also takes care of the "IT?" question. (You see, I do read and remember the articles you publish).
When she first met him, she said she liked his 'boyish nature'. So he kept it and worked on it.
Did you see the brown splodge that appeared at the upper right of the picture at 1:45? It disappeared at 2:45 so I thought "Who cleaned it up?!"
"7 is it free of links ....."
Especially the ones that have a long 'random' alphanumeric string that is obviously intended to flag the fact that it was _you_ who clicked the link.
I was hoping for salacious stories about orgies at Goldman Sachs. This is more worthwhile though.
"The lawsuit claimed the company should not be allowed to block ads on websites owned by the plaintiffs: Zeit Online GmbH and Handelsblatt GmbH."
Adblock Plus doesn't block ads on websites; it blocks ads on user's browser displays. That's why users install it. Anybody who _wants_ to see the ads can still see them if they choose to do so.
Bearing in mind the first comment, I will have a look at Privoxy.
"PGP isn't a good comparison, [as] Metasploit Framework is still open source and available globally," he said in a Twitter update.
Apart from a name change, isn't 'PGP' open source and available globally?
I watched the film (to see what all the fuss was about) and the dictator did have some assignations, with some lovely ladies.
"MLC and TLC flash state is worked out from the amount of current that passes through the cell, with a charge level corresponding to a state."
It's discrete analogue storage!
See title
"... so you can privately send your appreciation for the salted caramel without any barriers."
It seems that the world has become very trivial. When did this happen?
Would it be worthwhile to have cold air input delivered from floor mounted access points to an underfloor cold air duct? Similarly, the hot air outlet could be coupled to an overhead manifold that would take the hot air away. If the cabinets all have standard footprints and spacing, then a line of screw-cap covered access points wouldn't be difficult to plan or be inconvenient.
Is this illegal because the tree can't give meaningful consent?
" ... It means Cloverleaf, ..."
Doesn't it mean specifically 'four leaved clover' or is Italy full of the four leaved variety?
Truly testing an economic theory or model would be very expensive and time consuming. It would need control by governments and involve an entire country or region and take many years as well as having a bad potential downside if it didn't work out. That's why ..... oh....
Is that picture taken under available sunlight, passive IR, some composite of wavelengths? Are the spots 'bright' because they're whiter or hotter or what?
He did have a reputation for working tirelessly and ruthlessly at 'cracking' interviewees.
Wasn't there an attempt to make a European-developed search engine some years ago, in response to the perceived 'cultural threat' posed by Google? I have a vague memory of reading about this, possibly in The Register.
That's what I call "sending a message".
"... someone hacks into your oven, turns the gas on, waits 36 hours, then lights the pilot, ..."
A sensibly design IoT oven would not allow independent control of those items from outside. It would have 'on', 'off' and 'temperature demand' inputs. Local hardware/firmware would determine any safety related activity and sequences. If it was very clever it would notice any 'crazy' external command behaviour and disconnect itself from the internet.
It seems that Eadon is now a meme. He uploaded himself into the commentardiat consciousness before he was wiped.
" ... a logical component that, not unlike a transistor, is made up of graphene and magnetic materials."
That sounds totally unlike a transistor.
"... where are these drones being piloted from?"
From a fleet of mobile, highly agile, flying vehicles that each contain a drone pilot, a vehicle pilot a navigator and a defensive systems operator. This fleet operates close to the field of battle to ensure low latency links.
With conspiring to and commiting indecent assault.
We've had the 'on a computer', the 'on a website' and 'on a mobile' patent applications. Now it's time for 'with robots' patent applications. I wonder if they count as a subset of IoT applications.
Did the barge name itself?
Does this include a more dust/moisture resistant design of connector in any way?
"What use is a SATA 32GB SSD today ....."
As the root, /home, swap and /{data} partitions of my desktop computer. If I want 'big data' I just push a 1TB spinning rust or 128GB SSD into one of the front panel slots (or use a USB-3 adapter cable to connect a big SSD to my laptop). I don't anticipate this situation changing for me for many years and I'm sure most people at home (a big market) would be able to do the same.
on a Georgia Sunday morning,
I wanna shoot some vermin
but with my gun, I'mma still learnin'.
Is this the way to shoot an armadillo?
I just tried it and shot my poor MIL oh!

She called the cops - I hope they believe me.
Sha la lah, lah lah la lah la......
It seems that Silicon-28 is the most abundant (92%) naturally occuring isotope, but that still leaves 8% 'impurities' to get rid of. I wonder how difficult/expensive that is.
".... explores the history of the languages we use to talk to computers ..."
I use English to talk to my computers - lots of swearwords are are used.
I think blessings are transferable, as long as you have faith.
That wouldn't have helped in this particular case. Maybe a competition official could decide which toilet room and which cubicle they were allowed to use on each visit.
If infected, don't people notice sluggishness when doing ordinary things on their computer and is there an unusual amount of data transfer in/out of the intertube?
Our three letter agency is JCHQ ..... Our FOUR letter agency ......
This is what happens when you skim-read PoE articles.
I'll make a half aSSD attempt at joining in.
Shouldn't that be written as - Entertainment Software Ass. in The Register?
"To most, ..." - Citation needed.
"Besides which, he was a commie." - Paranoid/wild imagination needed.
Will Adam Carolla (and others) be able to claim any of his money back?
Oh, what a pity.
"... 4:3 ratio monitors .." With a matte screen - for goodness sake !! Why oh why ...? .....
".... buttons to control the OSD conveniently placed at the side, rather than underneath, making them easier to reach."
Not if you use two monitors side by side with a twin output display.
I always believe what people on the internet tell me. Life is simpler that way.

A DOG owner has been ordered to pay more than £450 after failing to clear up his pet's mess in Edgworth.
Thomas Lewis, aged 26, of Crown Point, Edgworth, was found to be in breach of the Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005 Dog Control Regulations 2006. A fixed penalty notice was issued to Lewis but no payment was received.
Lewis, who did not turn up to the hearing at Blackburn Magistrates' Court and entered no plea, was fined £75 and ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £20 and costs of £359.
New dog fouling signs have since been put up in the area of Edgworth where the incident took place.
Cllr Jim Smith, executive member for environment at Blackburn with Darwen Council said: "This type of disgusting behaviour is totally at odds with the vast majority of our borough's residents, who want to see their streets clean."

Jello Biafra and The Guantanamo School Of Medicine's new album, White People and the Damage Done, is an artifact from an alternate reality in which the Dead Kennedys never dissolved in acrimony, and instead kept on gigging and recording, getting tighter and tighter, angrier and angrier, and yet, somehow, never aging. Jello Biafra's lyrics are unmistakably his, but moreso -- more sarcastic, more trenchant, more unapologetically political than ever. His delivery is even more caustic than in the Kennedys' heyday, and the backing band (which is something of an all-star punk act, with alumni from the Rollins band, Digital Underground, Butthole Surfers and more) is hard-driving and heavy and relentless.
There's not a bad track on this one, but the real standout is Shock-U-Py!, an anthem about the Occupy movement, which you can hear after the jump. Don't miss the spoken word break in the middle.

Saints Bring Home Jayhawk West Title on Final DayPosted by Roy under Athletics
While it has become almost commonplace in the past 20 years for the Seward County Saints to be on top of the Jayhawk West standings at years end, when the 2013 version of the Saints found out that they had brought home the title once again this season, the celebration was no less intense. After splitting 5-4 and 6-0 games on day one of the series, the Saints actually went into the final day of the regular season one game behind rival Garden City. After taking care of their part and blanking Cloud County in 7-0 and 10-0 wins, Seward had their eyes glued on the action in Dodge City where they needed help from their friends on Boot Hill against the Busters. About an hour into their trip back from Concordia there were a few claps and cheers as Seward found out that Dodge won game three against Garden City to give the Saints at least a share of the conference title, but after the Conqs came back from down 5-0 in the bottom of the 9th inning to win game four of the series to give the Saints the outright title, the bus erupted in celebration. The Jayhawk West title is Seward's 10th in the past 13 years and their 14th in the past 19 years.

Yes, you may lose some ink due to flaking and peeling shortly after you have gotten a new tattoo. Your skin can hold only so much ink, and any excess will be shed. You may find that some ink comes off on your clothing for a few days. Once a scab has formed over the tattoo, this will stop. The scab itself may become the color of the ink that you lose.
DON'T peel off any scabs that may form. This may cause scarring and could also damage your tattoo. See our FAQ on "How to Take Care of Your New Tattoo" for more information.
