WiFi Criminal Tracked Down Via Other
Means 06/26/2004 01:19 AM
A few weeks ago we linked to an article from someone freaking out that (gasp!) a virus writer could release a virus from an unsecured WiFi access point and no one would ever be able to track him down. This is a bogus complaint. Most criminals try not to leave a trace of where they came from, and that's what real detective/forensics work is about: tracking them down. So, just because you can't figure out who they were because they were on an access point, you can still get clues, and let traditional detective work take over. That appears to be exactly what the FBI did to track down an online extortionist who used unsecured WiFi access points to secretly send out his demands. The FBI used other clues to figure out who the guy was and caught him that way. It's not clear why some computer security people seem to think that the only clues to computer crimes must also be on the computer.

Families struggle with Alzheimer's

Families struggle with Alzheimer's 04/26/2004 12:56 PM
Then, in one of his unexplained flashes of clarity, he told Debbie: "I don't want to have Alzheimer's." On Saturday, John will be 57. Although he is in the end stage of early-onset Alzheimer's, he still enjoys simple pleasures: walking outdoors, eating ice cream, listening to music. His wife, children and church friends — some of whom have relatives with dementia — will gather at the nursing home for a birthday party. They will honor the man John once was, and the spirit that survives. And some will no doubt wonder if they are bearing witness to their own futures. Alzheimer's is a disease that can create nurses and chambermaids out of loved ones. Jim Broomall doesn't blame his mother. It's not her fault. She can't help it. No one with Alzheimer's can and caregivers must remember that, he says. "If you don't, you'll go crazy". Or maybe even die: home care for Alzheimer's patients is a major health risk for the caregiver spouse. That's the choice for the families of the Alzheimer's patients (4.5 million of whom are Americans).

Curry cures Alzheimer's?

Mark Frauenfelder: The pigment that makes curry yellow, curcumin, does a better job at treating Alzheimer's than the majority of drugs being tested. (Interestingly, India has one of the lowest Alzheimer rates in the world.)

The new UCLA-Veterans Affairs study involving genetically altered mice suggests that curcumin, the yellow pigment in curry spice, inhibits the accumulation of destructive beta amyloids in the brains of Alzheimer's patients and also breaks up existing plaques.

AP - Ask anyone to name a brain disease that causes dementia and eventually death, and the most likely answer you'll get is Alzheimer's disease. Though that's one correct answer, it's not the only one. And a group meeting this week is trying to increase medical and public awareness for other degenerative brain syndromes that are as misunderstood and underdiagnosed as they are destructive to victims and families.

Test for Alzheimer's Disease gets closer

Test for Alzheimer's Disease gets closer 03/14/2005 04:52 PM

Alzheimer’s Disease. The name strikes fear into those who hear it, as anyone who has watched a loved one suffer the ravages of this disease can attest. A neurodegenerative disease that destroys memory and cognitive function, it destroys an individual’s mind and personality through the build up of protein plaques in the brain. Currently, the only way to definitively diagnose it is through a post-mortem. This edition of Science.Ars has news on what could become a reliable test for the disease.

In addition, there's news of monkeys working their mind control over robotic limbs, more on the coxib controversy, and other nuggets of science news. Dig in!
