| Ghost caught on security tape at gas station |
 |
Parma ,Ohio 11-11-2007
People looking to fill up their gas tanks in
Parma Ohio got an eyeful, but no one's
exactly sure what they were looking at.
The blue ghostly presence was visible to the
naked eye and was captured by surveillance
video.
The blue light sometimes hovered in one place
but also moved around

| Object Capabilities for Security |
 |
Google Tech Talks
November, 30 2007
ABSTRACT
Existing systems often do a poor job of
meeting the principle of least privilege. I
will discuss how object capability systems
and language-based methods can help address
this shortcoming. In language-based object
capability systems, an object reference is
treated as a capability; unforgeability of
references ensures unforgeability of
capabilities; and all privileges are
expressed as capabilities in this way. This
makes it possible to decompose the system
into distrusting
"privilege-separated" components,
providing each component with the least
privilege it needs to do its job; to reason
about the privileges and powers available to
various program elements, often in a local
(modular) way; and to avoid common pitfalls,
such as confused deputy and TOCTTOU
vulnerabilities.
I will attempt to introduce the audience to
some work in this area that is perhaps not so
widely known, and I will describe some work
in progress to construct a subset of Java,
called Joe-E, that is intended to enable
capability-style programming using a
programming syntax that is familiar to Java
programmers.

| TPMtv: McCain's Social Security Bamboozle |
 |
Your Daily Politics Video Blog: One of the
most entertaining things about the 2008
campaign has been watching John McCain
embrace all of President Bush's policies and
word game flimflams. And there's no better
example than Social Security where McCain has
not only adopted President Bush's proposal to
phase out Social Security and replace it with
private investment accounts he's even adopted
Bush's word game bamboozlement to try to
trick voters into thinking he doesn't support
the policy he actually does support. Those of
us who are about to talk straight, Salute
You!

| John McCain's Rage is a National Security Concern |
 |
http://bravenewpac.org/rage
During last night's debate, John McCain said
we need "a cool hand at the tiller," but
McCain has proven to be a loose cannon. He
has accosted his Congressional colleagues on
both sides of the aisle on everything from
the federal budget to diplomatic relations.
He is known for hurling profanities rather
than settling disagreements calmly. His
belligerence is legendary. Even conservative
Senator Thad Cochran of Mississippi has said,
"He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his
temper and he worries me."
When someone earns the nickname "Senator
Hothead," the public ought to call his
character into question. McCain's propensity
to explode undermines his abilities as a
rational decision maker, particularly on
national security issues -- which could prove
disastrous considering our country is already
involved in two wars.
McCain's temper is critical to his
decision-making abilities, and his character
must be discussed. As Drew Westen writes,
"The political brain is an emotional brain.
It is not a dispassionate calculating
machine, objectively searching for the right
facts, figures and policies to make a
reasoned decision." That why it's so crucial
people know the real Senator Hothead.

| The Xbox 360 Security System and its Weaknesses |
 |
Google Tech Talks
August 11, 2008
ABSTRACT
After the disaster of the original Xbox,
Microsoft put a lot of effort in designing
what is probably the most sophisticated
consumer hardware security system to date. We
present its design, its implementation, its
weaknesses, how it was hacked, and how to do
it better next time.
Speaker: Michael Steil
Michael Steil has been involved with various
embedded systems hacking projects, like the
Xbox, the Xbox 360 and the GameCube. In 2006,
he has spoken at Google about the flaws in
the security system of the original Xbox.
Speaker: Felix Domke
Felix Domke is the principal author of the
Xbox 360 hack and the Linux port. He has also
significantly contributed to hacking the
dbox2, the GameCube and the Wii, and porting
Linux to the respective platforms.
