CRITIC'S NOTEBOOK; A Global Heartbeat On CD's
By JON PARELES
Published: January 29, 1999
World music thrives on misunderstandings. As a marketing category, it's a grand hodgepodge. The world-music bins of any well-stocked store are likely to hold field recordings from remote villages as well as pop songs concocted in 64-track digital studios, and practitioners of traditional styles end up next to hybrids of, say, didgeridoo and Brazilian percussion and synthesizer. The confusion may baffle new fans, but it's true to the history of music, where no category stays intact very long.
Music carries the traces of cultures as they meet, dance together, struggle for pre-eminence or get together on the sly; musicians steal each other's licks only to recast them in the mold of their own traditions. The ever-evolving material might be a deity's rhythm that travels back and forth across the Atlantic, changing with each journey; it might be the way an electric guitar is made to sound like a zither in one place, a thumb piano in another, or bagpipes somewhere else.
World music can make a listener appreciate (and worry about the survival of) isolated cultures. Yet it can also make listeners marvel at the surprising things that happen when isolation ends and musicians start to pick up foreign accents, bending what they borrow into something new. American popular music is downright provincial in its mass media, rejecting nearly everything with lyrics that aren't in English. But while world music is ignored by commercial radio and television, many listeners who discover it get hooked.
Importers and licensers and packagers of world music have created a small world with a huge number of possibilities: sonic excursions as close as a CD player.
There's music for purists and assimilationists, traditionalists and rock fans, and every few years, another bit of the globe claims some shelf space: Pakistan, Cape Verde, Ireland, Cuba and the musical cornucopia of Brazil.
One central source for international music is the World Music Institute's new catalogue of albums and videos, with thousands of releases documenting mostly traditional music from Albania to Zimbabwe; the institute's Web site is www.heartheworld.org.
Major record-store chains, like Virgin, Tower and HMV, also offer plenty of world music. Stern's (71 Warren Street in TriBeCa) is a reliable source of African music; Bate Records (140 Delancey Street on the Lower East Side) and the mail order house Descarga (718-693-2966, 800-377-2647 or www.descarga.com) have a broad selection of Caribbean music, particularly from the Spanish-speaking Caribbean.
Here is a selection of some of the best world-music releases of the past year (and one from 1997): just a handful of destinations for the ears. (CD's range in price from $15 to $19 for a single domestic disk to $20 to $25 for an imported CD.)
RACHID TAHA: ''Diwan'' (Island). Rachid Taha is one of the most important voices of rai, Algerian rock with a confrontational streak. He has lived in France for 30 years, beyond reach of Algerian censors, and he has sung about the intolerance facing his fellow immigrants and the loneliness of exiles. ''Diwan'' asserts his cultural pride, reviving older songs from Algeria, Egypt and Morocco and celebrating the history of rai. Meanwhile, the music considers tradition with 1990's ears. Most of the time, hand drums drive the music's terse but unfolding melodies, and Mr. Taha's rough, ardent voice is answered by oud, flute or Arabic-style strings. And every so often, a programmed drumbeat or a wah-wah guitar slips into the mix, only making the songs sound more biting and fervent.
The Bahamas
''THE REAL BAHAMAS, VOLS. 1 AND 2'' (Nonesuch). Musicians were immediately smitten with these recordings when Volume I appeared in 1966. It was a collection of gospel songs and hymns, radically adapted to Afro-Caribbean timing and delivery, with raw, ebullient voices building call-and-response harmonies full of rhythmic moxie. Guitarists like Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal studied the hide-and-seek syncopations of Joseph Spence, who always placed a chord where it was least expected; the Grateful Dead and the Incredible String Band both learned the Pinder Family's version of ''I Bid You Good Night.'' But none of the imitators could match the verve of the original recordings.
CAETANO VELOSO: ''Livro'' (Polygram, Brazilian import). Caetano Veloso is one of the greatest songwriters of the century: a master melodist, a lyricist who merges surreal imagery with a sense of history and a sense of humor, a singer whose voice radiates tenderness and supple swing and a musician who connects to traditional music, pop and jazz from all over. ''Livro'' (''Book''), which was released in 1998 along with Mr. Veloso's autobiography, floats endearing melodies over a subtly remarkable array of backups: sambas and 12-tone lines, Bahian drum choirs and electric-guitar funk. Looking inward, Mr. Veloso contemplates a world of musical ideas.
BELO VELLOSO: ''Um Segundo'' (Velas, Brazilian import). This young Brazilian singer brings a warm, guileless voice to immaculately graceful pop. The album's dozen pop songs touch on Brazilian styles like bossa nova, forro and pagode samba, and bring a Brazilian subtlety to borrowings from reggae, salsa, funk and nuevo flamenco. The arrangements maintain a light touch while Ms. Velloso caresses the melodies, making the songs seem to come straight from the heart.

DEAR ANNIE: I am 57 years old and divorced. I am now engaged to a woman who is 29 years my junior. "Carla" is everything I ever wanted. I never intended to fall in love with her, but I needed a friend, and there she was. She feels the same way.
Here is the problem: Even though we are engaged, Carla's parents do not know I exist. For the past four years, she's been trying to figure out a way to tell them about us. Her father is a minister. Both parents are of the opinion that an older man and a younger woman do not make a biblically proper couple. I have read my Bible from front to back, and nowhere does it say this.
Carla says we should elope and then she will find the right time and the right words to tell her parents. But for four years, I've been hearing that we will "elope this year," and it has yet to happen. What do I do when I love a woman so much, but she doesn't have the inner strength to disappoint her parents? — Hurting Deeply
Carla is too young for you — not because of the age difference, but because she is immature. As daunting as it is to confront disapproving parents, someone who is truly committed to the relationship would have been willing to stand up for her choice of mate after four years and an engagement. Sorry to say, we do not have a great deal of confidence in your future together.
DEAR ANNIE: I could have written that letter from "Sick of It," who doesn't want her husband to approach her for sex. Combine post-menopausal me with my husband's health problems and medications, and you could have a dreary sex life, except for one thing: I love my husband so much that even though sex is not as magical as it used to be, I cherish every moment of closeness we have together.
Even though I don't always feel like it, I jump at the chance to be intimate. Love is about the other person, not yourself. Sex should not be an obligation, but a fulfillment of the promise made by a husband and a wife. — Bring It On
We wish more women would emulate your attitude, although we know it can be difficult. And too many women wrote to insist that having sex when you aren't in the mood is akin to rape. It is not. Read on for more:
From California: I was outraged by your answer to "Sick of It." I have a husband 12 years my senior with heart and impotency problems. That did not stop him from wanting to play with all the bells and whistles, push all the buttons and then say, "Oops, that's all." Meanwhile, I was hot and bothered with no relief. Finally, I made him understand that all that groping was not welcome. True intimacy at our age comes from love and tenderness. Now we cuddle. He is sad that sex has disappeared, but love is full of compromises.

The Vauxhall Corsa is an excellent small car. It's pleasant to live with, a cheap company car, and an affordable private buy.
The Vauxhall Corsa is a conventional small car that's a rival for the Ford Fiesta and Volkswagen Polo. It seats five (three in the back at a squeeze), offers some of the lowest emissions in the supermini class and has very competitive pricing, although some of the base versions are a little sparse.
On the whole, though, the Corsa is a compelling prospect. The 1.0-litre engines are decent to drive and offer strong fuel economy and low CO2 emissions; these should be the first models you try.
The cabin is respectable and roomy, and the Corsa is decent enough to drive on UK roads.
It's a shame that it's not as sharp to drive as a Fiesta, as spacious as a Skoda Fabia, nor as classy-feeling inside as VW Polo, but in its own way the Vauxhall Corsa is a happy medium of all these things. It's not the class leader, but it's easy to recommend.

Urban Meyer, congratulations. You are the most hated college coach of all-time, at least according to the Orlando Sentinel. Maybe it's a regional bias, but the former Florida and current Ohio State coach gets the nod as the most disliked ever by those in Orlando.
The polling might be different in Ohio, where the Buckeyes were unbeaten last year in Meyer's first year, but there must be a bad aftertaste in Florida.
There are recent allegations he turned in his former program for minor rules violations and high-profile legal trouble involving former Gator Aaron Hernandez, who was charged with murder last month as a member of the New England Patriots.
Meyer's aggressive tactics have long been a burr under the saddle of many of his peers. Now there's a perception he ditched Florida when the program was struggling and failed to properly discipline players who were arrested, of which there were many.
The rest of the top 10:
2. Nick Saban, Alabama football.
3. Bob Knight, Army, Indiana, Texas Tech basketball.
4. Steve Spurrier, Florida and South Carolina football.
5. Woody Hayes, Ohio State football.
6. Barry Switzer, Oklahoma football.
7. Jimmy Johnson, Oklahoma State, Miami football.
8. Mike Krzyzewski, Duke basketball.
9. Lane Kiffin, USC football.
10. Adolph Rupp, Kentucky basketball.
Random comments on their Hated 50:
* Bobby Petrino (12), Dave Bliss (26) and Mike Rice (27) should be higher. Petrino can be surly and curt. He left the Atlanta Falcons with three games left to go to Arkansas. He was fired after a motorcycle accident revealed an affair and a cover-up.
Rice was fired as Rutgers basketball coach in April after practice video showed him cursing at players, using slurs and throwing basketballs at them. Bliss left as Baylor basketball coach in 2003 after one of the worst scandals in college history. One of his players, Patrick Dennehy, was murdered by another player. Bliss tried to cover up a history of paying for players by saying Dennehy was a drug dealer. The lies were caught on tape.
* Joe Paterno (16) of Penn State was at one time one of the most admired, but his lack of accountability in the Jerry Sandusky sex scandal tainted the late coach.
* In addition to Knight, three are former Texas Tech coaches. Tommy Tuberville, seen as a coaching mercenary for his abrupt departures at Ole Miss and Tech, rides in at No. 33. Not far behind is Mike Leach at No. 35, who irked many by running up the score over outmanned teams and his clashes with administrators. Have I mentioned the allegations of player mistreatment?
At No. 48 is Billy Gillispie, whose odd behavior and off-the-court issues were problems at Kentucky (in addition to, of course, not winning at the accepted level of the Wildcat program). That followed him to Tech, where he resigned under pressure last September following allegations of player and assistant coach mistreatment and practice rules violations.

LA's mayor wants cap on pot dispensaries
LOS ANGELES Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has urged the City Council to limit the number of medical marijuana dispensaries in the city.
Villaraigosa said on Wednesday that the current number of 800 or 900 dispensaries is too high.
His comments come as the City Council works on guidelines for a long-awaited medical marijuana ordinance. They have suggested capping dispensaries at between 70 and 200 and allowing reimbursement at those clinics for "actual expenses."
The council will take up the issue again Dec. 2.
Villaraigosa must approve the ordinance for it to take effect.
Hundreds of dispensaries have opened in Los Angeles in the last few years. In 1996, California voters approved a measure that allows medical use of pot.

DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. (AP) -- Two pet deer allowed to roam free in a Dauphin Island neighborhood have been relocated by Alabama wildlife officials.
Reports say that deer are wild animals and can hurt people with their antlers and hoofs.
The woman who adopted them as pets after their mothers were run over by cars disagrees. She wants to know where the deer she has named Daisy and Darby were taken and how they were treated by wildlife officers.
The woman could face charges for transporting and keeping the animals illegally. Daisy and Darby were allowed to roam freely in the neighborhood and even welcome in some residents homes where they were fed and sometimes petted.

Study Type – Diagnostic (validating cohort) Level of Evidence 1b
What's known on the subject? and What does the study add?
Scientists have found a number of genetic factors that increase prostate cancer risk, including heritable mutations in the genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. These mutations are not common but can have major impact, as a BRCA2 mutation increases risk by up to seven-fold while a BRCA1 mutation is thought to double risk in men under 65. The IMPACT study aims to determine whether targeted screening in men with a known BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation would lead to earlier diagnosis of prostate cancers.
This data from the IMPACT study adds to the increasing evidence that BRCA mutation carriers develop more aggressive disease. Although these are early results, it appears that PSA screening is more accurate at predicting potentially aggressive prostate cancer among men at higher risk of the disease due to a genetic predisposition than general population screening. This study provides support for continued screening in men with genetic mutations.
To evaluate the role of targeted prostate cancer screening in men with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, an international study, IMPACT (Identification of Men with a genetic predisposition to ProstAte Cancer: Targeted screening in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers and controls), was established. This is the first multicentre screening study targeted at men with a known genetic predisposition to prostate cancer. A preliminary analysis of the data is reported.
Men aged 40–69 years from families with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations were offered annual prostate specific antigen (PSA) testing, and those with PSA >3 ng/mL, were offered a prostate biopsy. Controls were men age-matched (± 5 years) who were negative for the familial mutation.
In total, 300 men were recruited (205 mutation carriers; 89 BRCA1, 116 BRCA2 and 95 controls) over 33 months. At the baseline screen (year 1), 7.0% (21/300) underwent a prostate biopsy. Prostate cancer was diagnosed in ten individuals, a prevalence of 3.3%. The positive predictive value of PSA screening in this cohort was 47·6% (10/21). One prostate cancer was diagnosed at year 2. Of the 11 prostate cancers diagnosed, nine were in mutation carriers, two in controls, and eight were clinically significant.
The present study shows that the positive predictive value of PSA screening in BRCA mutation carriers is high and that screening detects clinically significant prostate cancer. These results support the rationale for continued screening in such men.

From Queen of Suspense Mary Higgins Clark, a thriller "that grabs you with the first paragraph and never lets go" (USA TODAY) about a woman desperate to uncover the truth behind her beloved stepmother's death.
At a party in Manhattan, Maggie Holloway—one of the fashion world's most successful photographers—is thrilled to be reunited with her beloved stepmother. A widow now, Nuala Moore is equally delighted to see her long-lost stepdaughter, and she invites Maggie to spend a few weeks at her home in Newport, Rhode Island. But when Maggie arrives, she finds Nuala murdered, apparently by a burglar.
Heartbroken, Maggie is stunned to learn she had inherited Nuala's stunning Victorian home...and horrified when she begins to suspect that Nuala's death was not random, but part of a diabolical plot conceived by a twisted mind. When Nuala's dear old friend, Greta Shipley, dies suddenly of supposedly natural causes, Maggie is convinced that there is a link between these two and other recent deaths among the older women of Newport. What she doesn't realize is that she has now become a target for the killer as well, and that each clue she uncovers brings her closer to an unimaginable fate.
Editorial Reviews
Flashback 20 days to the night photographer Maggie Holloway meets her long-ago stepmother, Nuala Moore, and Nuala invites her to visit her place in Newport. Before Maggie's arrival, thoughand, more crucially, before Nuala can carry out her plan to move into the nonpareil Latham Manor ResidenceNuala is killed and her house ransacked, and Maggie finds to her astonishment that Nuala's will leaves the Newport house to her. Why would anybody want to kill an inoffensive old lady like Nuala? Well, somebody might be trying to pick up her house for a song (somebody like Nuala's attorney Malcolm Norton or shady broker Douglas Hansen); or somebody might be after the fat deposit the next applicant for Nuala's new suite would have to pay Latham Manor (somebody like incompetent director Dr. William Lane or nosey nurse Zelda Markey); or somebody might need to shut Nuala up about her knowledge of several other suspect deaths, with another still impending, of Latham Manor residents (whoever may have helped those residents into the great beyond); or somebody might be just a little obsessed with the whole subject of death (somebody like wild-eyed funeral expert Prof. Earl Bateman). As usual in her recent work, Clark ends up tying all these threats in together, so that the land grab, the nursing-home deposit scam, the investment fraud, the sinister messages sent by a series of funeral bells, and the Latham Manor murders all turn out to be the work of a single diligent soul, who (don't forget) has the same wicked designs on Maggie as on Nuala.
About average for Clark's G-rated thrillers, as if you were countingwith enough material on funerary customs to make you resolve to live forever.

Read an Excerpt
From Chapter Nine
Except for that uptight art director, it had been a good week, Maggie reflected as she turned off Route 138 in Newport. Both photo shoots this week had turned out exceptionally well, especially the one for Vogue.
But after the meticulous attention she had to give to noting how the camera was capturing every fold of the astronomically priced gowns she was photographing, it was a distinct joy to put on jeans and a plaid shirt. In fact, with the exception of a blue silk print blouse and matching long skirt she planned to wear tonight for Nuala's dinner party, everything she had brought to wear on this vacation was quite casual.
We're going to have such fun, she thought. Two uninterrupted weeks in Newport. Nuala and I really will have a chance to catch up with each other! She smiled at the prospect. It had been a surprise when Liam called to say that he would be at Nuala's tonight, as well, although she should have realized he spent a fair amount of time in Newport. "It's an easy drive from Boston," he had pointed out. "I go there fairly regularly for weekends, especially off-season."
"I didn't know that," she had said.
"There's a lot you don't know about me, Maggie. Maybe if you weren't out of town so much..."
"And maybe if you didn't live in Boston and use your New York apartment so little..."
Maggie smiled again. Liam is fun, she thought, even though he does take himself too seriously much of the time. Stopping at a red light, she glanced down and rechecked her directions. Nuala lived just off the fabled Ocean Drive, on Garrison Avenue. "I even have a view of the ocean from the third floor," she had explained. "Wait till you see it and my studio."
She had called three times this week to be sure there were no changes of plan. "You are coming, Maggie? You won't disappoint?"
"Of course not," she had assured her. Still, Maggie had wondered if it was only her imagination or was there something in Nuala's voice, an uneasiness that perhaps she had detected in her face the night they had dinner in Manhattan. At the time, she had rationalized that Nuala's husband had died only last year, and she was starting to lose her friends as well, one of the nonjoys of living long enough to get old. Naturally a sense of mortality has to be setting in, she reasoned.
She had seen the same look on the faces of nursing home residents she had photographed for Life magazine last year. One woman had said wistfully, "Sometimes it bothers me a lot that there's no one left who remembers me when I was young."
Maggie shivered, then realized the temperature in the car had dropped rapidly. Turning off the air-conditioning, she opened the window a few inches and sniffed the tangy scent of the sea that permeated the air. When you've been raised in the Midwest, she thought, you can't ever get enough of the ocean.
Checking her watch, she realized it was ten of eight. She would barely have time to freshen up and change before the other guests began to arrive. At least she had phoned Nuala to let her know she was getting off to a late start. She had told her she should be arriving just about now.
She turned onto Garrison Avenue and saw the ocean in front of her. She slowed the car, then stopped in front of a charming clapboard house with weathered shingles and a wraparound porch. This had to be Nuala's home, she thought, but it seemed so dark. There were no outside lights turned on at all, and she could detect only a faint light coming from the front windows.
She pulled into the driveway, got out, and, without bothering to open the trunk for her suitcase, ran up the steps. Expectantly she rang the bell. From inside she could hear the faint sound of chimes.
As she waited, she sniffed. The windows facing the street were open, and she thought she detected a harsh, burning smell coming from inside. She pressed the doorbell again, and again the chimes reverberated through the house.
There was still no answer, no sound of footsteps. Something has to be wrong, she thought anxiously. Where was Nuala? Maggie walked over to the nearest window and crouched down, straining to see past the lacy fringe on the partly drawn shade, into the darkness inside.
Then her mouth went dry. The little she could see of the shadowy room suggested it was in wild disorder. The contents of a drawer were strewn on the hooked carpet, and the drawer itself was leaning haphazardly against the ottoman. The fireplace was opposite the windows and flanked by cabinets. All of them were open.
What faint light there was came from a pair of sconces over the mantel. As her eyes adjusted to the dim light, Maggie was able to pick out a single high-heeled shoe, turned on its side in front of the fireplace.
What was that? She squinted and leaned forward, then realized she was seeing a small stockinged foot, extending from behind a love seat near where the shoe had fallen. She lunged back to the door and twisted the handle, but it was locked.
Blindly, she rushed to the car, grabbed the car phone and punched in 911. Then she stopped, remembering: Her phone was attached to a New York area code. This was Rhode Island; Nuala's number began with a 401 area code. With trembling fingers she punched in 401 911.
When the call was answered, she managed to say "I'm at 1 Garrison Avenue in Newport. I can't get in. I can see someone lying on the floor. I think it's Nuala."
I'm babbling, she told herself. Stop it. But as the calm, unhurried questions came from the dispatcher, with absolute certainty Maggie's mind was shouting three words: Nuala is dead.

I was unable to put this book on hiatus for any length of time- I had the unrelenting need to keep turning the page. Anything that can elude its ending from me is well worth reading. Count on the unpredictable that's in plain sight.
I recently finished reading Moonlight Becomes You. The story opens with the main character, Maggie Holloway, reuniting unexpectedly with her beloved stepmother, Nuala. Less than a week later, however, Nuala is found murdered in her home. The police classify the attack to have been committed by a "random" burglar. But when Nuala's close friend is found dead six days later, Maggie begins to suspect there is someone who is carefully plotting out these crimes. As she continues to delve deeper into the investigation, she is unknowingly putting herself at risk. I have always been a fan of mystery and suspense novels, and I rate Mary Higgins Clark at the top of my list. I've read many of her novels, and I was unsurprised to find that I thoroughly enjoyed this one as much as the others. With its thrilling cliffhangers and well-constructed plot, this novel accomplished all that it was designed to do. The back cover of the book states, "Stay up all night with the Queen of Suspense." I found this to be true for two reasons: First, the plot sucks you in to the point where you don't want to put the book down. Second, the suspense keeps you thrillingly chilled to the bone. Take, for instance, the scene right before Nuala is murdered, prior to the discovery of who the murderer is: "For a moment Nuala was startled, but as the door opened and her visitor stepped in, she smiled warmly. 'Hello there,' she said, 'Good to see you, but you're not due for a couple of hours[for the party] so you can't stay long.' 'I don't plan to stay long,' her visitor said quietly." (p.19) The only negative about this book is that there were almost too many characters to keep up with. Up to chapter eight, it was basically just an introduction of each new character and the explanation of their background. Later in the book, I found myself wondering, "Wait, now who is that character again?" I would frequently have to go back and search through the pages. Besides that minor flaw, Moonlight Becomes You was a wonderful suspense novel filled with captivating plot-twists and thrilling cliffhangers. I highly recommend it as a must-read for all who seek a little healthy dose of fear.
Moonlight Becomes You is an awesome book. It kept me wondering what was going to happen, and it didn't ever really give anything away. It was a little slow in the begining and confusing with the different people 'talking' but after a while it made sense. I haven't read many of Mary Higgins Clark's books but the ones i have, have been fantastic. I recommend this book to anyone who loves horror and suspence.
I began reading this book in 4th grade, unfortunately I picked it up too close to the end of the semester and wasn't yet the speedy reader I am now. Before the more interesting, the slower I read, somehow trying to fall into the pages, and I definitely fell and never forgot. I always finish a book I've started, so I searched and searched through titles. Even Clark's name resonated in me over the years, and I read first chapter after first chapter of so many titles. When finally I saw this book again, I knew automatically I'd finally found it. Moonight Becomes You.
I LOVE Mary Higgins Clarks books - this was as good as all her other books. Another one you can't put down - have to continue reading on till the next chapter. I don't know where she gets her ideas but they are GREAT! Love when she talks about the Metropolitan area - she mentions so many things that I'm farmilar with I feel I'm part of the book!
I just read this book for the second time, the first time was 5 yrs ago or so. I really liked it then. Although it wasn't such a surprise to me, due to the fact i read it once, I still enjoyed it. I really like Mary Higgins Clark. This is one of the first books i read by her. I liked it so much I have read most of her books and this one is probably in the top 10. I recommend it to anyone that likes Mary Higgins Clark books!

Security researchers have uncovered an espionage malware network that's been operating undetected for at least five years and that has likely stolen quantities of data that stretch into the terabytes.
"The campaign, identified as 'Rocra' -- short for 'Red October' -- is currently still active, with data being sent to multiple command-and-control servers, through a configuration which rivals in complexity the infrastructure of the Flame malware," read research published by Kaspersky Lab.
Operation Red October involves a series of highly targeted attacks. "All the attacks are carefully tuned to the specifics of the victims. For instance, the initial documents are customized to make them more appealing, and every single module is specifically compiled for the victim with a unique victim ID inside," said Kaspersky Lab. In addition, it said attacks are also customized based on the target's native language, the specific software installed on their system, and the types of documents they prefer to use.
[ Did recent attacks on U.S. banks really have ties to Iran? Read more at Bank Attacker Iran Ties Questioned By Security Pros. ]
Kaspersky Lab said it first learned of the attacks in October 2012, after being supplied -- by a third party that wishes to remain anonymous -- with samples of spear-phishing emails and malware modules being used by attackers. Interestingly, the spear-phishing attack emails appear to have been recycled from an attack campaign that targeted Tibetan activists, as well as military organizations and energy companies in Asia. Attackers, however, substituted their own malicious code.
Working with US-CERT as well as the Romanian CERT and the Belarusian CERT, Kaspersky Lab said it began monitoring the malware used by attackers on Nov. 2, 2012. By Jan. 10, 2013, it had seen 250 different IP addresses registering more than 55,000 connections to a sinkhole it created to study the attacks.
The greatest number of Rocra-infected PCs (35) appear to be in the Russian Federation, followed by Kazakhstan (21), Azerbaijan (15), Belgium (15) and India (14). "The infections we've identified are distributed mostly in Eastern Europe, but there are also reports coming from North America and Western European countries such as Switzerland or Luxembourg," read the report.
The malware being used by attackers, which is still active, has primarily targeted organizations belonging to one of the following eight categories: government, diplomatic (including embassies), research institutions, trade and commerce, nuclear or energy research, oil and gas, aerospace, and military.
Once the malware infects a PC, it serves as a launch pad for further attack code, which typically gets downloaded once, executed and then deleted. Other modules, however, such as malicious code that waits for a smartphone to be connected to a PC and then steals data from the device, remain indefinitely active. "During our investigation, we've uncovered over 1,000 modules belonging to 30 different module categories," said Kaspersky Lab. "These have been created between 2007 with the most recent being compiled on 8th Jan 2013."
Various modules offer the ability to retrieve Windows and Outlook account hashes, steal information stored on locally connected USB devices or smartphones -- iPhone, Android, Nokia and Windows Mobile -- as well as record keystrokes and webcam images, scan for open ports, grab and upload interesting files and more.
A network of command-and-control (C&C) servers is interfacing with the infected PCs to retrieve stolen data. "We uncovered more than 60 domain names used by the attackers to control and retrieve data from the victims. The domain names map to several dozen IPs located mostly in Russia and Germany," reported Kaspersky Lab. But again, it's unclear who's controlling the C&C servers, or where they're located. "The C&C infrastructure is actually a chain of servers working as proxies and hiding the location of the true -- mothership -- command and control server," the report read.
Some of the documents stolen by attackers have filenames that end with the "acid" extension, such as "acidcsa" and "acidsca." According to Kaspersky Lab, the 'acid*' extensions appear to refer to the classified software 'Acid Cryptofiler,' which is used by several entities such as the European Union and/or NATO.
Who built Rocra? According to Kaspersky Lab, the exploits appear to have been created by Chinese hackers, although the malware modules were apparently written by Russian-language speakers. Indeed, the report from Kaspersky Lab, which is based in Moscow and was founded by Russian security expert Eugene Kaspersky, also reported finding typos and misspellings in the malware code that appear to be Russian-language slang terms, including the word "progra," which is a transliteration of Russian software engineer slang for an application. The word "zakladka" also appears in the code, which in Russian can refer to a "bookmark" but is also a slang term for "undeclared functionality" in hardware and software. According to the researchers, however, it may also mean a microphone embedded in a brick of the embassy building.
Despite the Chinese and Russian ties, however, currently there is no evidence linking this with a nation-state sponsored attack, according to the report.
If a government didn't launch this malware, where might it have originated? "The information stolen by the attackers is obviously of the highest level and includes geopolitical data which can be used by nation states," said researchers. "Such information could be traded in the underground and sold to the highest bidder, which can be of course, anywhere."
Kaspersky Lab reported finding no connections between the malware and Flame, or any malware that's related to Flame, which security experts believe was built by the U.S. government. Meanwhile, the malware is also much more advanced than the attack code used in the Aurora or Night Dragon attacks, both of which have been ascribed to the Chinese government. "Compared to Aurora and Night Dragon, Rocra is a lot more sophisticated," said Kaspersky Lab.
As malware gets increasingly sophisticated, so, too, must the technology and strategies we use to detect and eradicate it (or, better yet, stop it before it ever makes it onto network systems). Our Rooting Out Sophisticated Malware report examines the tools, technologies and strategies that can ease some of the burden. (Free registration required.)
The cybersecurity profession struggles to retain women (figures range from 10 to 20 percent). It's particularly worrisome for an industry with a rapidly growing number of vacant positions.
So why does the shortage of women continue to be worse in security than in other IT sectors? How can men in infosec be better allies for women; and how can women be better allies for one another? What is the industry doing to fix the problem -- what's working, and what isn't?
Is this really a problem at all? Are the low numbers simply an indication that women do not want to be in cybersecurity, and is it possible that more women will never want to be in cybersecurity? How many women would we need to see in the industry to declare success?

Warren Says She Informed Universities of Ancestry
BOSTON—Democratic U.S. Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren publicly disclosed for the first time that she told Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania after the schools hired her that she is of Native American ancestry.
It was a change from earlier statements. Ms. Warren previously acknowledged listing her ancestry in a professional directory but had said she was unclear about why Harvard had touted her as a minority.
Ms. Warren, a Harvard law professor seeking to unseat Republican Sen. Scott Brown in the Massachusetts race, one of the nation's most closely watched, has been questioned for weeks over her undocumented claim to Native American ancestry and how the designation was used.
In a statement Thursday, Ms. Warren said, "At some point after I was hired by them, I also provided that information to the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard. My Native American heritage is part of who I am; I'm proud of it and have been open about it."
A Warren campaign official said Thursday that Ms. Warren had held off on mentioning she told her employers about her ancestry because she didn't recall exactly what she had relayed to the schools and wanted to review university information that took a while to collect.
A recent poll by Suffolk University in Boston showed Ms. Warren and Mr. Brown statistically tied, with likely voters largely unfazed by the controversy. Ms. Warren says she wasn't hired based on her ancestry; officials involved in her hiring also say it wasn't a factor.
The latest development "may or may not" matter to voters, but Ms. Warren's changing answers don't make her campaign look good, said Andrew Smith, director of the University of New Hampshire Survey Center.
"I think the campaign has really mishandled this issue," he said. "When you get into a position like this, you've got to have your story straight and accurate in the beginning, and the fact that they have changed their story means this controversy has been kept alive."
Ms. Warren first released her statement Wednesday night to the Boston Globe, which reported it had located further evidence that Harvard had claimed her as a minority. The newspaper published an article Thursday citing documents from Harvard's library that show its law school reported a Native American female professor in federal statistics in 1992, when Ms. Warren was a visiting professor.
Genealogy researchers say Native American ancestry is part of Ms. Warren's family lore, but they haven't found documents proving it. Ms. Warren, who grew up in Oklahoma, said she knows of her heritage through her parents and her extended family's oral history.
Mr. Brown cast skepticism on her family story Thursday. The Republican newspaper quoted him as saying: "My mom and dad have told me a lot of things, too, but they're not always true."
Ms. Warren's rival was seeking to "throw a little more gasoline" on the issue, said Maurice Cunningham, chairman of the political-science department at the University of Massachusetts Boston. "One of his great advantages is that he's a likable person, but he's getting close to the edge of wading into negative territory himself," Mr. Cunningham said.Ms. Warren put out a statement Thursday afternoon saying, "My parents are not fair game."

I'm using Launchy with Windows 7, but I've noticed that certain short cut's don't work with Launchy - the icon appears as the generic application icon and the application fails to start.
Clicking on the short cut directly (either on the start menu or in explorer) works fine.
This only happens on a couple of shortcuts - ones that I've noticed so far are Windbg and VirtualBox.
Any idea on what might be causing this and how to fix it?

Its now it two-pieces

About Me Casual Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about BJs Wholesale Club Step2 MailMaster Deluxe Mailbox:
Since I sought out this website for pros and cons of this particular mailbox, before I bought it, I thought it was my duty to add my two-cents now as an owner. I bought this mailbox because it was sold as being "vandal resistant" and "durable." Unfortunately, it did not even last 6 months. No, the mailbox was not driven over. No, the mailbox was not smashed with a baseball bat. However, the mailbox is in two-pieces, nonetheless.I honestly thought this mailbox was one solid construction. Actually, four interior screws somehow connect the mailbox to the newspaper holder. Yet, those screws are not accessible by hand. Therefore, how they support the two sections is beyond me. It is no wonder that one good whack could have separated the "molded" mailbox. I honestly thought it was constructed as one solid piece. Boy was I wrong!Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this product like the other reviewers. After I read their reviews and bought this mailbox for being "vandal resistant" and "durable," I just would not feel right telling someone that it measures up to what undoubtedly have been false expectations.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great Customer Service
By Dave
from Brighton, MI
My Mailbox has been run over twice and I just need a new 4X4 and it's good as new. Also, I had the flag torn off by vandals (been working at this for some time now). When I called to get a replacement flag, it was at NO CHARGE. Who does that these days? Needless to say I would purchase from this company over and over based on customer serice alone.

Best Mailbox--ANYWHERE
By Randy
from Prior Lake, Mn
You cant find a better mailbox. It looks like new years after you install it. Vandals broke the flag off my Step 2 mailbox a few years ago---any other mailbox you would be replacing it-- not the Step 2 simply order a new part, install, and back to JUST LIKE NEW!

Great mailbox for 14 years. It was barely scratched from a icy road car collision a year ago which greatly loosened the 4x4 attachment post. However, it could not survive a direct hit by a similar mishap today. I am looking to replace it with the same model.
