Roadless Act under attack.







Roadless Act under attack.

Roadless Act under attack. 07/13/2004 01:46 PM

Roadless Act under attack. Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman announced today the plan to lift a Clinton-era ban on building roads into wilderness areas on National Forest Service lands. Instead of keeping the ban at a federal level, the decision on wether or not to allow roads to be built would now be deffered to state governers.

I can't help but wonder, how is this in the public's interests at all? It is unreasonable to paint this as, "the biggest single giveaway to the timber industry in the history of the national forests", or does this really have value that the average American could benefit from?

Roadless Rules for Forests Set Aside
(washingtonpost.com)
07/12/2004 10:41 PM
washingtonpost.com - The Bush administration said yesterday it plans to overturn a Clinton-era rule that made nearly 60 million acres of national forest off-limits to road-building and logging, setting aside one of the most sweeping land preservation measures in decades.

Art Attack


Art Attack 06/09/2004 10:33 PM

On June 15, a federal grand jury will convene in upstate New York to consider possible bioterrorism charges against University at Buffalo art professor Steve Kurtz and the Critical Art Ensemble, an internationally-known hactivist collective. From the CAE Defense Fund Web site:

"Early morning of May 11, Steve Kurtz awoke to find his wife, Hope, dead of a cardiac arrest. Kurtz called 911. The police arrived and, after stumbling across test tubes and petri dishes Kurtz was using in a current artwork, called in the Joint Terrorism Task Force.

Soon agents from the Task Force and FBI detained Kurtz, cordoned off the entire block around his house, and later impounded Kurtz's computers, manuscripts, books, equipment, and even his wife's body for further analysis. The Buffalo Health Department condemned the house as a health risk.

Only after the Commissioner of Public Health for New York State had tested samples from the home and announced there was no public safety threat was Kurtz able to return home and recover his wife's body. Yet the FBI would not release the impounded materials, which included artwork for an upcoming exhibition at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art."

This Washington Post article provides more background on the bizarre turn-of-events. Protests at the Court House in Buffalo and in other major cities are planned. Link

DoS Attack Nothing New


DoS Attack Nothing New 05/18/2004 01:14 PM
Some WLAN security experts say that the reaction to a type of denial of service (DoS) attack recently described by Queensland University researchers is severe: "This is new only in a small incremental sense," said Rich Mironov, vice president of marketing for AirMagnet. "This is one new flavor or variation of the DoS attack." The report from Australia has been widely described as a dramatic new security fault inherent in the 802.11b standard. Some reports have included recommendations to stop using 802.11b networks altogether. The attack appears to have no real effect on 802.11a or 802.11g-only networks which employ a different signal encoding method than 802.11b. But some say the attack isn't new at all. Richard Rushing, chief security officer for AirDefense, says this new report looks exactly like findings presented by University of San Diego researchers at a UseNix conference last August. The buzz around the recent report from Queensland just happens to be better publicized, he said. Neither Mironov nor Rushing expect the form of attacks to be particularly threatening. The attack can be performed with an off-the-shelf PC card but the card's firmware must be modified using a driver that may or may not become public. "It's probably going to come out, but it's not necessarily going to propagate," said Rushing. Even if it does get widely circulated, the attacks themselves will be limited to the APs in range of the altered PC card. "It's not like the whole network crashes. It's the one or two or three APs nearby that are crashing," Mironov said. AirMagnet's current product looks for 16 other distinct DoS attacks and will soon identify this type of attack. When its network sensors pick up on the attack, an alarm is sent to a network administrator. An IT manager can then use a handheld device to locate the source of the attack to shut it down. AirMagnet expects to be able to distribute an update that will identify this specific attack in about a week, Mironov said. Key to identifying such attacks are sensors that are separate from the APs, Rushing said. "If I'm using the AP to get my monitoring information I won't see anything. I'll just see that nothing is connecting to the AP," he said. But a separate sensor would see the signals sent from the hacker's device. Mironov says this new attack is not a reason to shy from...

Our new baby

« Jarkko holds our eagerly awaited new baby. :) An entire gallery filled with adorable Saint Bernard puppies. »

We took a trip to southern Sweden this weekend to visit the litter of puppies we liked and to pick one along with the usual things you look at when selecting a breeder. The breeders, Lasse and Sussi, asked us to stay at their house and were really terrific people. As soon as we saw those 9 adorable little furry faces looking up at us any doubt we might have had disappeared. Of course, 9 puppies who are 7 weeks old and who are just getting their teeth in along with the teething that goes with them are dangerous creatures to everything within range of their mouths. :) We spent a few hours getting to know the furry pirańa and decided on the puppy we liked originally from the pictures. We haven't picked a name for him yet, we'll just have to see what comes to us as a fitting name.

We have to wait until the first week of January to bring him home because of the EU regulations, in spite of Sweden being a rabies-free country, requiring that the puppy have a rabies vaccination before entering Finland. So, we must wait 5 long weeks until we can bring him home so he can fill the house with hair, drool, chew toys and all those familiar St. Bernard sounds that we miss so much. :) Happiness is a warm, fuzzy puppy.

Some idiot abandoned two pet piranha in a Hong Kong fountain and one took a bite out of a boy's finger while he was playing in the water.
The piranha -- which has its origins in warm South American rivers and can devour whole cows when hunting in packs -- is a popular fish in Hong Kong home aquariums and can be bought in Mongkok pet shops for less than HK$100 a pair (7 pounds).
Maybe piranha could help deal with the problem of the renegade alligators in New York City's sewers. Link
