"Painters of Blight" show at Roq la Rue
in Seattle
06/30/2004 01:12 PM
Seattle's Roq la Rue Gallery (2316 Second Avenue) is running a two-day
exhibit on Friday, July 9, and Saturday, July 10, featuring the work
of two dozen artists paying tribute to Thomas Kinkade and Jack T.
Chick. (click on thumbnails for enlargements. Painting on left is by
Jim Blanchard; painting on right is by Johnny Ryan).
As you probably know, Thomas Kinkade, the famous "Painter of
Light," has made millions of dollars with his customized prints of
day-glo cottages against backdrops of enchanted forests. He has a team
of "Kinkade-trained Master Highlighters" who go over reproductions of
his work with oil paint. For this show, artists Jim
Blanchard, Kamala Dolphin-Kingsley, Robert Hardgrave, Claire Johnson,
Charles Krafft, Pat Moriarity, Erin Norlin, Marion Peck, Benton Peugh,
Robert Rini, Bonni Reid, Mark Ryden and Kipling West have highlighted
pages
from the Thomas Kinkade Painter of Light with Scripture: 2004 Deluxe
Wall
Calendar, in their own distinct styles.
And Jack T. Chick is the famous artist-publisher of a series of
incendiary 3" x 5", 24-page religious comic book tracts. Loaded with
scare tactics and jabs at "enemies" of Christianity, Chick's comics
vividly depict the horrors of Hell for anyone who neglects to convert
to Christianity. Since 1961 Chick has created 175 proselytizing
tracts, which have had more than 500,000,000 copies published
in over 100 languages worldwide. Artists Tom Bagley, David R. Drake,
Jed Dunkerly, Nathan Eyring, Rod Filbrandt, Cliff Hare, David Lasky,
Deborah F Lawrence, Eric Reynolds, Johnny Ryan and Kamilla White have
each created work inspired by Chick. In contrast to the Kinkade
artists, they worked with no specific assignment, and came up with
equally diverse outcomes: David R. Drake reduced an entire tract to
its minimum visual information, creating 23 individual tiles still
closely correlated with the original, Eric Reynolds has painted an
original portrait of the reclusive Jack T. Chick, and David Lasky will
display the original art for an entire tract written by Jim Woodring
intended to be traded for unwanted religious pamphlets.

03/22/2005 05:03 PMEvery time a new virus or attack comes out, someone has to chime in
with the comment "buy a Mac." Apparently that won't be good enough any
more. Along with Apple's increased popularity comes the news that
more hackers are targeting the
Mac system for security holes. Yet again, the issue of security
often has as much to do with how popular the system is as opposed to
how insecure it may really be.

News
.com reports
on the need to secure XML and Web Services.
Many years ago, David
Megginson talked
about new kinds of security vulnerabilities created by XML,
primarily through it's
careless use of external resources such as DTDs and entities, at an
XML conference.
At the same conference, first BoF meeting on SOAP was held.
Since then discussions
over security surfaced occasionally among XML geeks but no one else
really noticed
until now.
The rise in the number of articles like this one is,
IMHO, driven by security
companies extending their reach into XML and web services market
and not by increasing
hacker activities against XML and web services.
Vulnerabilities are real, thanks
to careless adoption of XML and web service technologies by
mainstreamers and the
general lack of awareness by XML developers, but hackers are
not likely to come
knocking at those vulnerabilities.
Why? Because, if vulnerabilities in HTML-driven websites and
web applications
are antelopes and zebras, vulnerabilities in XML and web services
are like monkeys
and gophers. Why would lions climb trees or dig into
gopher holes when
there are millions of more attractive preys?
Of course, some hackers will come knocking but developers can
easily move higher up
the tree by using hardened manageable XML processors and web
service engines
which will emerge out of the glut of feature-happy, vulnerability
laden XML and web
service tools accumulated over the past 7 years. Education
and awareness is
what the market needs most of all, not expensive boxes or software
peddled by security
companies.
I will add XML and web services vulnerabilities to my stable of
post topics as well
as discussing the real dangers of web services arising out of
increasing ad-hoc dependencies
among web service providers.

Hackers Choosing Mac
03/29/2005 08:00 PMThe term “hackers” can conjure images of teenager
misfits, breaking into your credit card account in order to
get into porn sites on the web. But these days when you talk about
hackers your talking about those programmers that can make software
sing. They take open source code and turn it into main-stream
applications.
So what are hackers using for their “weapon of choice”?
Well according to Tim O’Reilly
from O’Reilly Books, andPaul Graham,
author and programmer, it’s the Mac OSX. Why you may ask? Well
according to Paul Graham in his essay “Return of the
Mac”.
All the best hackers I know
are gradually switching to Macs. My friend Robert said his whole
research group at MIT recently bought themselves Powerbooks. These
guys are not the graphic designers and grandmas who were buying Macs
at Apple's low point in the mid 1990s. They're about as hardcore OS
hackers as you can get.
The reason, of course, is OS X.
Powerbooks are beautifully designed and run FreeBSD. What more do you
need to know? For most of us, it's not a switch to Apple, but a
return. Hard as this was to believe in the mid 90s, the Mac was in its
time the canonical hacker's computer.

Superbug and Hackers
Superbug and Hackers
04/21/2004 04:56 AM
Hackers are like germs. You throw equivalents of antibiotics
at them, they'll
mutate into superbugs. For example, I doubt phishers will be
tempted to hack
Google to take advantage of AdSense Voluntary
XSS vulnerability because they are getting enough loot from
stupid phishing attacks
to keep them happy. Once Microsoft Outlook, the main phishing
delivery vehicle,
is plugged and their gravytrain runs out, they will turn into
superbugs to find other
means of getting their phishing lures in front of the user's
eyeballs.
Oops. I am out of tea for now.

08/02/2004 03:55 PMA presentation on how to be the first to exploit new flaws in Web
server software was deemed "just as cool for white hats as for
black hats" attending the Defcon 12 conference here over the
weekend. The session offered new tools, as well as insight into the
mindset of the so-called black hat, or malicious hacker, community,
said one enthusiastic attendee, who works for a security consulting
company that secures Web servers for the financial sector. The two
presenters, German security consultants "FX" and Halvar
Flake, spoke about taking advantage of new-found holes, known as
zero-day Web-based vulnerability exploitation.
Hacking Advice
Finding vulnerabilities to exploit is real work, the presenters said.
The large, packed crowd listened to them talk about "making
script kiddies into real hackers," referring to novice hacker
wannabes who simply use other hackers' tools to deface Web sites. The
pair outlined the procedural steps of drilling down and finding Web
server weaknesses--effectively offering tips to those who want to do
so, but also providing knowledgeable warning to those who guard
against such action.
