Researcher Set to Disclose Chrome Zero-Day
Google shells out a decent chunk of change each quarter to security researchers who find vulnerabilities in its Chrome Web browser. So when a security researcher claiming to have found a zero-day in Chrome forgoes the payout, the big question becomes, "Why?"
Georgian researcher Ucha Gobejishvili plans to disclose a previously unknown security hole in Chrome at the MalCon hacking conference in New Delhi, India, on Saturday, according to a list of talks posted on the MalCon website. Gobejishvili's talk, titled "Project Calypso, Art of Infection," will cover browser exploitation methodologies and focus on the zero-day, according to the summary.
In an online chat session with Security Ledger, Gobejishvili said the zero-day was a "critical vulnerability" in a DLL file. If exploited successfully, the vulnerability would allow a remote attacker to push and run a malicious executable file to the victim's computer. While the demonstration would be on a Windows machine, it could potentially work on other platforms.
"It has silent and automatically (sp) download function…and it works on all Windows systems" Gobejishvili told Security Ledger.
Not Interested in the Money?
While many researchers disclose vulnerabilities directly to the vendor, many others chose to sell the proof-of-concept demonstrating the security flaw to various exploit brokers and intelligence agencies. Researchers reportedly make more money through the vulnerability market than they would through a company's bug bounty program. In this case, however, Gobejishvili does not appear to be working with an exploit broker.
Gobejishvili will demonstrate the exploit at MalCon and have a general discussion about the flaw, but he does not intend to release the source code of his proof-of-concept.
"I know this is a very dangerous issue…that's why I am not publishing more details about this vulnerability," he said during the chat session.
At the moment, researchers who can demonstrate a "Full Chrome exploit" on a fully patched Windows 7 system running the latest version of the Web browser can collect $60,000 in bug bounty money. A "Partial Chrome Exploit," which uses at least one bug to get user access, is worth $50,000. A security researcher can earn $40,000 with a successful attack on a "Non-Chrome exploit" via Windows or Flash.
In fact, Google just recently paid $60,000 to a hacker "Pinkie Pie" for successfully exploiting two native Chrome vulnerabilities in order to circumvent the application sandbox in Chrome. The company patched the flaw within 24 hours.
Gobejishvili had not previously contacted the company about the issue, a Google spokesperson told Security Ledger. Despite Gobejishvili's assertion that Google "knows that they have issue in chrome product," the search giant appears to be playing the same wait-and-see game as the rest of us waiting for news out of New Delhi.

The Invitation

Our Demands
Brought to you by:
Below is the original invitation, sent out in April of 2011:
Dear friends,
The first few months of this year have been among the most exciting on record--people in half a dozen countries have stood bravely up for their rights. Many of them have won, overthrowing dictatorships that date back decades.
Our 350.org colleagues in those countries have--predictably--been a big part of the freedom movement, and they've been keeping us up to date on how they're using everything from Twitter to graffiti art to spread the word. Most of all they keep saying how wonderful it finally feels to be in motion: to be marching, running, moving after years of being stuck in the same tired place.
That feeling of being stuck is how we've felt in the climate movement for years now. The scientists have told us why we must change--and every record flood and heat wave adds to their message. The engineers have told us how we can change, as they've quickly turned windmills and solar panels from promising experiments into tested technology. The only thing now preventing change is the hold of the financially powerful status quo--all those coal and oil barons, and their friends in high government places, keeping us stuck in the polluting mud of inaction.
This year is going to be about movement in every sense of the word. Not just the big shoulder-to-shoulder campaign we've built together across the world these last two years, but also actual, powerful, fun dramatic movement in the streets -- putting into action our demand for a future free from fossil fuels and dangerous climate change.
Circle September 24 on your calendar--that's the day for what we're calling Moving Planet: a day to move beyond fossil fuels.
But we won't just be cycling or marching--we'll also be delivering a strong set of demands that can have real political impact. They'll differ from one country to the next, of course, because the steps we need to take depend on how much fossil fuel we already use.
To make this political impact we need to start building momentum now. In the US, 10,000 young leaders got the ball rolling at the Power Shift 2011 summit and rally in Washington, DC last weekend. We'll build this momentum together over the next five months, with hard-hitting online campaigns, focused grassroots organizing at the local level, and climate leadership workshops around the world.
Our friends in Tunisia, Egypt, and throughout the Middle East have proven that change can come quickly. The greatest achievements have been without violence, but not without sacrifice. They've done it with bravery, and also good humor; with the internet and also with face-to-face organizing. They've got things unstuck in countries that seemed rusted shut. They're our inspiration for the months ahead.
Bill McKibben
P.S. While we're gearing up for Moving Planet, we're also hard at work on other focused campaigns around the world, like the U.S. Chamber Doesn't Speak for Me campaign I described in in my speech Powershift 2011. But on 24 September, we will get to combine our local actions into something very big and very beautiful--and put the powers that be on notice that the dirty status quo won't hold much longer.

Vince Vaughn has bought a house for $3.925 million in an area of Los Angeles one might not normally associate with actors – La Cañada Flintridge.
And while it may not have the celebrity cachet of Hollywood Hills, he can count actress Angela Bassett and a host of entertainment industry types among his neighbors. Plus, the schools are good.
Still, it's a far cry from the three-level penthouse he had listed atop Chicago's Palmolive Building at $16.8 million until recently.
His new Colonial-style home sits on three-quarters of an acre with a swimming pool and a sports court. There are five bedrooms, six bathrooms and 5,563 square feet of living space.
As a producer and screenwriter, the 43-year-old Vaughn has starred in such movies as "Wedding Crashers" (2005), "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story" (2004) and "Swingers" (1996). He will be in the upcoming films "The Internship" and "Delivery Man."
Debra McCoy of Dilbeck Real Estate was the listing agent, and Christine Navarro of Podley Properties was the sales agent, according to the Multiple Listing Service.

Rosary sophomore girls swimmer Erin Hart huddled with Beads coach Bill Schalz before competing for Saturday's 100-yard freestyle consolation championship.
After the race, Hart still was absorbing everything that converges on the IHSA state finals when St. Charles North coach Rob Rooney patted her on the shoulder and said, "Solid swim."
The Evanston pool deck wasn't a particularly hostile place for Hart in her second state appearance. The St. Charles resident had backing not only from the Beads, but her counterparts at St. Charles East and North, who double as club teammates in the high school offseason.
"It's really familiar since we've all been on the club team at St. Charles Swimming," Hart said. "You see a lot of people you know."
Hart was one lane over from one such athlete in the final race of her season, swimming next to Villanova-bound East senior Mary Snyder in the 100 free consolation.
Hart (52.32) edged Snyder for 11th place by 0.39 seconds.
As a freshman, Hart qualified for state in the 50 freestyle and as part of Rosary's 200 and 400 freestyle relay teams. The 200 free relay (fifth) and 400 free relay (seventh) helped the Beads to a third-place finish at New Trier.
While the Beads notched just six team points this season, Hart is confident she can be part of a turnaround. Rosary, after all, is another place in which she feels comfortable.
"I've had family friends that had gone to Rosary before and I heard of the swim team and met coach [Schalz] before through club swimming," Hart said. "It's been a good school for me to go to."
Fisher to Michigan: Marmion senior wrestler George Fisher, of St. Charles, recently committed to Michigan, Cadets coach Ryan Cumbee confirmed.
Fisher, who's set to compete at 132 pounds this winter, was the Class 2A state runner-up at 126 pounds last season. He won the 2A title at 119 as a sophomore and boasts a 74-14 record the past two seasons,
"The way he's practicing every day, I already look at him as college-ready," Cumbee said. "And he's not going to be stopped this year. George Fisher is going to let people know who he is real quick as we move up to 3A."
For more on the wrestling scene, check out Wednesday's Chronicle for our season preview.
Bears downed: The Baylor women's soccer team was eliminated Sunday in the third round of the NCAA Tournament, falling, 4-2, in penalty kicks to host North Carolina after the match moved through two overtimes tied at 1-all.
The Bears, coached by St. Charles native Marci Jobson, finished 19-2-5 and set a program record for victories. Baylor went 4-2-4 in overtime matches and had not lost since falling Aug. 26 at Long Beach (Calif.) State, 2-1, in OT.
Speaking with the Chronicle last week, Jobson reflected positively about her first five seasons at Baylor, a Christian school in Waco, Texas, which she called "the Notre Dame of the South."
The Bears had been a perennial Big 12 doormat when Jobson arrived from Northern Illinois, but have since made successive NCAA Tournament appearances and were ranked 11th entering Sunday's play.

Latest Chromebook from Acer could become a hit
Acer turned out a brand new Chromebook competitor including a high quality 13-inch screen, as well as an Nvidia Tegra K1 mobile cpu. With an electric battery life of around 12 hrs, in addition to a headlight, fanless style, the Acer Chromebook 13 is readily available with 2 screen choices: a complete HD screen with 1920 x 1080 resolution, 2000 MB of RAM memory as well as a 16-GB strong state drive for 300 bucks; or 1366 x 768, with comparable specifications, for 280 dollars. An additional variation for industrial as well as education and learning consumers will certainly showcase a better screen, 4000 MB of RAM memory and also a 16-GB Solid State Drive for 330 dollars. Regardless, the Chromebook 13 boot in much less compared to 10 secs, as well as returns to almost promptly from rest method. The main target for this item is pupils and also households.
Over 15 Million Devices by the year 2017
Chromebooks have actually been marketing fairly well compared with the remainder of the computer market. A recent brand new study launched by Gartner on Monday shares considerably the exact same message. Promotions of Chromebooks will certainly get to 5 million air conditioners in 2014, Gartner forecasted, standing for a 80 percent boost from the year 2013. Chromebook promotions will virtually triple to get to 15 million devices by 2017. Competition in the Chromebook market is heightening as additional suppliers release Chromebooks, with 8 designs available in this year. Now that the computer market is no more increasing highly, suppliers are looking for brand new company chances. They released Chromebooks to restore passion in mobile PCs once the netbook bubble had burst. Acer's fresh entry, on the other hand, is a fascinating one due to the fact that it has the K1, offering it terrific electric battery life. The Chromebook's success in education and learning aside, e-commerce as well as retail are a various concern. Possibly most especially, the last markets have the tendency to be controlled by fourth-quarter promotions. Hard-drive storage space is not as solid, yet these devices are implied much more for cloud computer. In general, it's a bit very early to recognize if this is a victory or loser on the cpu side. The market is still new, and also OEMs are searching for their differentiating designs to obtain market share.
4 Free remote desktop computer as well as display sharing solutions
Operating in IT for 5 years, I've found out that desktop computer sharing/screen discussing software program applications make life a great deal simpler for both the individuals and also for the supervisors. It's not simply an excellent means to provide technological assistance to individuals, however it's additionally an impressive method to discuss information and also team up with others from another location promptly as well as quickly.
I've been making use of remote desktop computer discussing software application for some time now as well as it's functioned marvels for our group. Numerous individuals in various places around the nation could deal with a discussion or a job strategy at the same time from their desktop!
As you could picture, discussing your lcd with a buddy or member of the family is likewise something that can be found in useful a whole lot greater than you would certainly believe. My papa just recently got a Mac as well as because he was a COMPUTER customer all his life, he required my assistance discovering OS X. Considering that we stay in 2 various cities, the most effective means to do this was for him to discuss his lcd, allow me take command and afterwards reveal him the best ways to browse the OS.
Right here's a listing of a number of my favored display discussing software program over the last couple of years:
Audacity is the name of a preferred free multilingual sound publisher as well as recording program that is made use of to tape as well as modify noises. It is created as open source and also deals with Windows, Mac OS X, Linux as well as various other running systems.
Audacity could be utilized to execute a variety of audio modifying and also recording jobs such as making ringtones, blending stereo tracks, moving tapes and also documents to computer system or CD, splitting recordings right into different tracks as well as even more. The Audacity Wiki page offers in-depth tutorials on ways to do these kinds of activities.
TeamViewer is a more recent solution for discussing your display free of charge. Their entire marketing factor is one-click sharing, which functions well if you have Java made it possible for. It takes around 20 secs to lots and afterwards you're great to go. You obtain a code, since code to another person that could watch your lcd from a desktop computer, an ipad or perhaps a mobile phone. That's rather cool as well as practical because a bunch of individuals utilize their ipads and also phones greater than their computer systems.
The large drawback is Java. On Macs, for instance, Apple has impaired Java due to safety and security factors. This suggests you cannot discuss your lcd unless you allow Java once more, yet it will certainly likewise make your computer system much less protected. The various other drawback with TeamViewer is that the cost-free solution simply assists 2 hrs a day of lcd sharing. That's ample for me, yet if you require a lot more, they have actually paid strategies also.
CroosLoop is additionally extremely simple to make use of, yet calls for that each celebration set up the CrossLoop software program into their computer systems. It's generally acquired 2 tabs: Access and also Share. You wish to discuss your desktop computer, you offer the share code to the various other character as well as they kind that code right into the Access tab. The other way around if you wish to hook up to somebody else's desktop computer.
Certainly, you do not have the limitations promptly limitation or variety of sessions making use of CrossLoop. Makes use of 128-bit security and also permits for file-sharing.
Join.me is a website produced by the people from LogMeIn, which is a popular solution for remote accessibility to your computer system. Join.me not just does instantaneous display sharing, it's obtained a great deal of functions that make it fantastic for on-line conferences. The cost-free variation allows you have up to 10 individuals that could watch your display at the exact same time, allows you pass command to an additional individual, consists of multi-monitor assistance, assists conversation and also data transition and also permits folks watch your display on an iPad, apple iphone or Android gadget with their mobile applications. That's quite nice.
Permit's not ignore among one of the most well-liked programs available that countless folks currently have actually mounted on their computer system: Skype. You could effortlessly discuss your display with an additional Skype individual as well as it's ultra-convenient given that Skype is a risk-free and also relied on program that lots of people currently understand as well as make use of.
The only disadvantage to Skype is that you could discuss your display with somebody totally free over a voice telephone call. You will certainly have to have Skype Premium if you intend to discuss your lcd on a video clip phone call. That's the large catch with Skype. Still not a bad choice.
Extreme Injector
In any case you need to inject DLL files there are several good tools on the market. One of those tools is called Extreme Injector which is also free to download. What makes Extreme Injector good among the others is that it has several really useful features. One can choose from different types of injection. Also different native methods to change DLL files is what this software is about. There is a list of all the features available on the official webpage, so look more from there. So far Extreme Injector has proven to be the best working DLL injector we have tried.

You know, torrent downloading can be legal and fun
If you're popular culture illiterate, are just one of one of the most prominent methods to discuss songs, motion pictures, publications, as well as virtually anything you really want online. In spite of the unlawful track record, several torrents are totally legit; you could possibly equally as quickly download and install a free-to-share indie docudrama as the most up to date period of Game of Thrones. The methods you would certainly set about looking for either are extremely comparable, so note that we approve no obligation wherefore you make a decision to download and install. Do not sue us if the feds take you to prison or you're penalizeded or you acquire an infection. Beware of the reality that a lot of p2p web sites have advertisements for adult on them, which might be unsuitable in particular atmospheres. You have actually been alerted.
Below is some terms you'll wish to know:
A "seed" or "seeder" is a person discussing the documents to make sure that it could be downloaded and install. Essentially, the additional seeders a data has, the even more customers your computer system could download and install items of the peer to peer from. A lot more seeds, typically, suggests a much faster download and install. It needs to be kept in mind that files are not downloaded and install sequentially, the procedure downloads any sort of offered items that compose a whole data. Simply puts, do not quit downloading and install at 95 percent since you uncommitted with regards to the last 5 percent of the flick. It does not function in this way.
You, or anybody downloading and install a torrent, is a "leech." Leeches are additionally described as "peers." If there are additional leechers compared to seeders, then it can create a slow-moving download.
Internet sites like Pirate Bay make use of "magnetic hyperlinks." With magnetic hyperlinks, you're going right to the download place rather than downloading and install the "file," which is conserved individually as a documents of info required to start the download. It's like sending out an individual an associated with this post as opposed to conserving a data that routes them to the write-up. This came to be well-liked as a loophole to assist extra torrent internet sites from some lawful problem, due to the fact that now they do not have actually data saved money on their web servers that connected to prohibited material.
The Pirate Bay, as imagined over, is extensively taken into consideration among the very best p2p websites online. Merely look for what exactly what you're seeking to obtain begun.
When you discover the file sharing you really want, examine the remarks part to make certain that folks aren't stating there's an issue with the download. Folks will certainly likewise publish top quality credit scores in the remarks area. In these ratings, A mean sound, V represents aesthetic and also the level climbs to 10. These scores are commonly discovered when you hunt for films, considering that often a person will certainly publish a film they tape-recorded in a movie theater, which normally creates poor top quality. Make certain you click the relate to the magnetic close to it as well. Typically, there are phony advertisements created to look that download web links. It's merely much better to be secure.
The documents's source will certainly commonly be discovered in the data name, which might consist of "camera," meanings that that the video clip was videotaped with a cam, or "DVD hole," indicating that they tore a DVD to their computer system and also posted that to a peer to peer business website. Some flicks will certainly arrive at torrent websites while they're still being received movie theaters, yet are not taped by an amateur cam individual. Typically, these were replicated off of advertising DVDs sent out to motion picture customers which evaluate honor programs or very early launch international variations. There are likewise little symbols like (pirate bay) beside specific individuals' names, implying they're relied on and also really energetic individuals. When you begin downloading and install, inspect the listing of things being downloaded and install (a lot more on this later) to make certain they're the best sort of data.
Making use of parentheses will certainly focus on whatever is beyond the parenthesis. Ensure you choose just what sort of data you're seeking if it's something that could be available in greater than one style. Lord of the Rings could take the type of an e-book, motion picture, video game, or a soundtrack.
Various other web sites you could wish to make use of to discover torrents are: Kickasstorrents, Torrentz, IsoHunt, and also Extra Torrent. As excellent as it is, in some cases The Pirate Bay will not consistently have just what you're seeking. In such situations, you could have good fortune with a various web site. Utilizing Google to discover exactly what you're trying to find as well as including "data" close to it will normally fix this trouble.
There are "personal trackers." Personal trackers are internet sites that you need to be welcomed to by an alreadying existing participant, and also they commonly have guidelines to guarantee that you publish as much material as you download and install. These internet sites are the most safe wager if you're fretted about entering problem, yet it's not consistently very easy to obtain a welcome to an exclusive tracker website. PassThePopcorn is one such solution.
Sites like The Pirate Bay are where you'll discover whatever you're searching for, however you still require a bittorrent client in order to in fact download them. Envisioned over is simply one instance of such a program, which is called uTorrent. Various other torrent customers consist of: qBittorrent, MediaGet, and also Vuze. When you click a download web link on a peer to peer website, a timely will certainly appear asking if you would like to introduce the download in your torrent customer. As soon as you concur, the bittorrent client will certainly open up a home window like the one over as well as begin downloading and install the documents.
Torrent-downloading customers will certainly demonstrate how much of your documents has actually downloaded and install, offer a real-time result of the amount of seeds and also leeches an offered data has, as well as reveal just what documents are being downloaded and install from any sort of torrent. If you're downloading and install a film and also view that a.exe or.com data is download, you're most likely downloading and install an infection. During that situation, quit the download right away and also erase whatever file and also connected data that you downloaded and install. You could likewise focus on or cancel specific data from downloading and install to speed up points up. If you actually merely wished a couple tracks off that cd, prioritize them, keep a couple of at regular top priority, and also cancel the ones you uncommitted around. In trackers like uTorrent you could likewise increase the data transfer allowance to make sure that your computer system focuses on downloading and install the documents rapidly.
Seeding the documents you download and install is considered a thoughtful act in the torrent globe. Some state that seeding is exactly what will certainly most likely land you in lawful very hot water. If you're captured, some firms will certainly send you a stop and also desist letter, or even worse. Again, continue at your very own danger.
IPhone 6 from AT&T is not hard to get unlocked
If you have actually gotten an AT&T iPhone 6 without an agreement over previous couple of days, possibilities are that you wish to unlock it to utilize it on an additional service provider. Conventional procedure entails filling in an on the internet type on AT&T's internet site, sending out an email to AT&T, waiting 5 to 7 days and also recovering your phone. It ends up that it is a lot easier compared to that: simply recover phone in iTunes as well as it will certainly be uncovered.
We have actually validated procedure with AT&T's technological assistance and also efficiently attempted it with a T-Mobile SIM card. It means you unlock iPhone 6 to use another carrier. After bring back tool in iTunes, customer is motivated with common unlocking message: "Congratulations, your iPhone has actually been opened.". Here is also an iPhone unlock video tutorial from Youtube.
This message had not been sufficient for me though. I require much more evidence that I could possibly utilize iPhone on every service provider and also abroad.
After obtaining notice my brand-new iPhone was uncovered, I reduced a micro-SIM card right into form of a nano-SIM using AT&T SIM card that was currently in iPhone 6 as a quick guide. One of the most hard component was making it narrower to make sure that you could shut little nano-SIM tray, though some have actually reported that this task might be optional.
IPhone 6 we examined was acquired in an Apple retailer, however we could not verify this with one more, pre-ordered iPhone 6 - despite the fact that tool was acquired at complete rate, it was connected to an existing AT&T account throughout pre-order procedure. Service provider plainly specifies on its web site that you need to be either a previous client or a client without agreement commitments to be qualified to undergo whole procedure, email consisted of. Maybe troublesome too if you got your iPhone 6 straight from AT&T.
In September 2016 Apple announced the new iPhone 7 and 7 Plus at their annual event. It was pretty clear that the iPhone 7 was going to come out and there had been lots of rumours about it already. As usual, Apple sells the new device at similar price like each year and also payment plans from carriers are available. This of course means lots of locked phones all over the world. After the payment plan ends the device would still be locked to the same network you bought it from. This is why there is factory unlock iPhone 7 possible even after getting a locked phone. Whether it's from Verizon or Sprint, you can unlock it sooner or later at the IMEI level. This means the unlock would be just the same as getting a factory unlocked device.
Using Popcorn Time to stream movies online
In 2017 developers of Popcorn Time have come out with a superb idea to better stream movies online. This tool is easy to download and install on your Computer device. The main programmers behind Popcorn Time have maintained their identities hidden, but the team rallies around its popcorn-faced mascot called Pochoclin, that signs all their post. YTS lags the prominent Getpopcorntime.net site which was a straight offshoot from the original task. One more group of confidential programmers from all over the globe that have worked together on several tasks going up the moment 4 Popcorn site. Can any confidential company outlining to overthrow among the globe's most effective, wealthy, and also longest standing markets ever really be trusted? Most likely not, yet Time 4 Popcorn states they supply torrent traffic security, plus a complimentary VPN, so you could use it without worrying about the Feds knocking down your door. If you're on a Mac you should definitely make use of a VPN if you're having fun with torrents and you want to watch movies with Popcorn Time. That alternative isn't available on iphone, so if you intend to be much safer, maybe only make use of public links, like your neighborhood Starbucks WiFi. By burrowing your connection via a risk -free, anonymous link, the Feds with any luck won't have the ability to see all the negative Liam Neeson films you've binged on. It's secure to claim that Hollywood would like to squash it if they could, however as opposed to utilizing a military of lawyers to attempt to get Popcorn Time as well as various other torrenting apps shutdown, they can work on striking far better content bargains to offer individuals just what they desire on with services like Netflix that generate income.

"It's just an honor," Mars said. "We just got off tour, so being able to come to New York City and announce this is incredible."

This past summer, for the first time in many years, we published a beautiful 24-page report highlighting JewishGen's accomplishments over the course of the previous year. It has been viewed more than 14,000 times, and if you have not already done so, we encourage you to read it by clicking here.
The 2011 Update is a reflection of how the year has gone for JewishGen – busy, productive, and successful.
In terms of our online collection, more than one million records were added to JewishGen this past year, including more than 300,000 new entries for JOWBR(our online burial registry).
As you may have noticed, we have renamed some of our popular features so that they are immediately understandable to all of our users.
For example, the JewishGen ShtetlSeeker is now called the JewishGen Gazetteer. Similarly, JewishGen ShtetLinks is now called JewishGen KehilaLinks. In addition, major and significant improvements have been made "behind the scenes" to help foster an easier and more powerful experience.
To be sure, we still have lots of room to improve. For example, more than 42,000 new users registered for JewishGen last year, and yet only small percentages joined our Discussion Groups and Family Finder. These are important networking tools that have helped connect thousands of families, and we plan on improving these numbers in the year ahead.
Finally, and most importantly, our loyal users continued to provide us with a strong base of financial support – we received more than 6,000 donations last year – allowing us to operate within our budget for the second year in a row despite global economic uncertainty.
This feat was possible only because our users made a conscious decision to participate – each according to their ability – in the important service we are providing. Every single financial donor has a share in any success that results from JewishGen. While we received some donations in excess of $1000 or as little as $5, each was significant and important to us, and we are grateful.
As the New Year approaches, we remain confident that you and other JewishGen users will once again help support our important work to the best of your ability. Each donation makes a difference, and helps us to continue offering a service that has connected thousands of families over the past two decades.
If you are in a position to make a financial contribution to JewishGen, please click here today.
Regardless of your level of financial support, we are glad that you are part of the global JewishGen community – the JewishGen family – and we wish you and your family a happy and healthy new year, a Shana Tova and a K'siva V'chasima Tova.
Warren Blatt - Managing Director

For Bob Kerrey, Buffett rules
Bob Kerrey has a billionaire buddy in his back pocket: Warren Buffett.
The world's most famous Omahan — and one of its richest men — is putting his political weight behind the Nebraska Democratic Senate candidate, making a rare foray into electoral politics at a time when he's become deeply involved in the national debate over taxes and deficits.
Story Continued Below
Buffett plans to help pad Kerrey's campaign war chest by throwing an Omaha fundraiser later this month for the Democratic candidate, officials say. Kerrey has quietly forged a close personal relationship with Buffett over the years, according to confidants to both men who say the billionaire investor periodically offers political advice to Kerrey — including this past spring, when the two were spotted together at an exclusive Omaha country club known as the Happy Hollow Club.
But unlike conservative billionaires — like fellow Nebraskan Joe Ricketts and Las Vegas casino mogul Sheldon Adelson — who plan to give tens of millions of dollars to outside groups to sway the elections, Buffett won't use his personal fortune to bankroll any high-spending super PACs.
Buffett's resistance to embracing super PACs underscores a Democratic dilemma from coast to coast: Because they have moral objections to unlimited spending from third-party groups, would-be Democratic donors refuse to give super PACs cash even though they could have a lasting impact on the presidential and congressional elections.
"I am 100 percent behind Kerrey," Buffett, the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, told POLITICO. "I will not be doing super PACs of any sort. I think allowing unlimited contributions to campaigns is a terrible idea and an important and unfortunate step toward a plutocracy."
Still, the decision by Buffett to engage in the race by throwing an Omaha-based fundraiser later this month will add precious resources just as Kerrey's trying to cut down a solid lead by his Republican challenger, Deb Fischer, who has been the beneficiary of heavy super PAC spending that has come namely from Ricketts. On top of that, Buffett's foray into the race is certain to raise some eyebrows in Omaha, since he tends to avoid engaging too deeply in electoral politics beyond making individual contributions from time to time.
"We, frankly, never see him," said Mark Fahelson, chairman of the Nebraska Republican Party. "He's not on the radar screen as far as we can tell as far as any active involvement in Nebraska."
But privately, Buffett has long been a key ally to Kerrey. In 1993, when Kerrey was on the fence over whether to support President Bill Clinton's controversial budget bill, Buffett was one of the voices telling him the proposal was probably the best he'd get, Kerrey later told reporters.
Buffett has supported Kerrey's past runs for elective offices and maxed out earlier this year when he gave $5,000 to Kerrey's campaign. Buffett's daughter, Susie, was spotted at an Omaha Central High School basketball game with Kerrey in February when he was considering leaving his home in New York to make another Senate run for the seat being vacated by Democrat Ben Nelson. And Kerrey seems to have some faith in Berkshire Hathaway: He has an investment fund with the firm worth at least $15,000, which yielded an income of at least $2,500 last year, according to his financial disclosures.
Kerrey's aides would not make the candidate available for an interview.
"Mr. Buffett and Sen. Kerrey have known each other for a very long time," said Paul Johnson, Kerrey's campaign manager. "Mr. Buffett has supported Sen. Kerrey in previous campaigns and is doing so again this election."

UBS news
UBS announces senior management appointments
Zurich/Basel, 22 October 2010 - UBS today announced that the Board of Directors has appointed Philip Lofts as Chief Executive Officer, UBS Group Americas and Maureen Miskovic as Group Chief Risk Officer and Member of the Group Executive Board. Robert Wolf remains Chairman of UBS Group Americas and President of the Investment Bank. All three are effective January 1, 2011.
As the Americas region is a key strategic priority for UBS, the firm has decided to separate the roles of CEO and Chairman. "Given the importance of the Americas region, which has the largest concentration of UBS employees and is the world's largest wealth management market and investment banking fee pool, we decided to broaden our senior leadership team to provide the momentum necessary to develop key areas in the United States, Canada and Latin America," said Oswald J. Grübel, Group Chief Executive Officer.
In his new role as Americas CEO, Lofts will work together with the Business Division heads toward achieving sustainable growth in the region with a focus on strategy, profitability and integration. Lofts assumes this role with his extensive knowledge of the complex regulatory environment in the financial industry, the Investment Bank and the Americas region. Lofts was appointed Group Chief Risk Officer in November 2008.
Miskovic was, most recently, Chief Risk Officer of State Street Corporation, as well as a member of that firm's Operating Group and Chair of its Major Risk Committee. Immediately before that, she served as a member of the State Street Board of Directors. Prior to that, she held a number of senior positions with major financial institutions.
"Maureen's extensive experience in risk management will build upon and enhance the solid foundation of the new risk organization of UBS. We look forward to her leadership in managing risk intelligently, thoughtfully and proactively," said Oswald J. Grübel, Group Chief Executive Officer.
Miskovic will be based in Zurich and will report to Grübel.
Robert Wolf in his role as Chairman of UBS Group Americas and President of the Investment Bank will focus full-time on client relationships and business transactions in the Americas. Wolf has asked to step down from the GEB at the end of 2010. Wolf will continue to lead the firm's efforts in public policy in Washington, D.C., as well as community affairs and diversity initiatives in the region. Wolf was appointed Chairman and CEO, UBS Group Americas and President Investment Bank in 2007.
UBS draws on its 150-year heritage to serve private, institutional and corporate
clients worldwide, as well as retail clients in Switzerland. We combine our wealth
management, investment banking and asset management businesses with our
Swiss operations to deliver superior financial solutions and manage CHF 2.2 trillion
in invested assets.
UBS is present in all major financial centers worldwide. It has offices in over 50
countries, with about 37% of its employees working in the Americas, 37% in
Switzerland, 16% in the rest of Europe and 10% in Asia Pacific. UBS employs
about 64,000 people around the world. Its shares are listed on the SIX Swiss
Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

I posted this in response to recent thread on CML, but seems it might be of interest to others, so it is reproduced here:
Whether RAW is from a CFA Bayer sensor, vertical striped sensor, or three chip source, there is no desirable true sensor RAW, as all camera manufacturers do (or should do) some pre-processing. Direct sensor data is not pretty; you want black balancing, fixed pattern noise (FPN) removal, non-linearity fixes, all applied before "RAW" is recorded, as these are hard to correct for in post. Dual Link HDSDI has its RAW data log encoded (lossy) and packed into 10-bit, yet it is still "RAW" to the workflow, and significantly better than if it was left in linear and truncated to 10-bit. Whether the pre-processing is FPN removal or 10-bit log encoding, these are only to make the workflow easier, to help deliver an image with the greatest creative potential into post.
Part of the thread discussed whether compressed RAW is RAW at all. My company kind of invented the field of compressed RAW, and first publicly launched this as the compression within SI-2K. I argue that compressed RAW is RAW, given that all pre-processing in camera is only to make the image more usable in the workflow; so as long as that processing doesn't reduce the creative potential downstream, it is still RAW. Compression is only another pre-processing step to help the acquisition and post workflow. We see Red One's success because of its compression, not in spite of it. Can compression be used without "reducing the creative potential?" Absolutely, and the 2009 Oscars helped prove that. On a technical level, pre-processed sensor linear to 12-bit log compressed at 4:1 (average SI-2K compression level) is potentially less damaging than linear to log 10-bit for DPX storage.
As for comparing uncompressed to compressed, that is happening everyday for many SI-2K users--shoot a detailed scene in the FS2 mode on the full body camera, and it will occasionally leave some frames uncompressed, every 4 to 8 frames or so. This is not for quality reasons; rather it helps manage computer resources for a CPU limited device (all the compression is happening in software.) The compression is so lite, it is impossible to tell whether you are decoding a compressed or uncompressed frame. Finally, when you consider the CFA Bayer style RAW, which is not a usable image without a demosaic (the process of guessing the missing chroma values, which has no true/ideal solution,) compression is even less of a factor. We have customers converting uncompressed Phantom HD to CineForm RAW, as they prefer the demosaicing options (currently 9 of them.) So compression is not impacting the quality anywhere near as much as the demosaic filter, which most post workflows simply accept as if it were nothing more than a format conversion.
When all manufacturers use the term RAW, that simply means they have made their best efforts to apply no creative image development in camera -- seems like a reasonable definition to me. We only now need to compare the results, not the in camera process.

When is camera Raw, Raw?
I posted this in response to recent thread on CML, but seems it might be of interest to others, so it is reproduced here:

Thank you for the interesting blog. Hardware is not CF's main business, but are you able to explain why DSLR manufactures do not leave the ISO setting outside the raw files? Does this have something to do with sensor noise and the preamplifyer noise?
- David said...
Yes it does. All sensor and an analog section with analog gain that is fixes of variable. In a fixed gain system ISO is simulated through digital gain, yet the RAW source is white clipped by a fixed amount of light, and black noise setting the maximum shadow detail. In a variable gain system, both the white clip point and black noise and shadow detail are controllable. ISO is an variable gain system can be a combination of analog and digital gain. Red One I understand is fix analog gain, whereas SI-2K is variable analog gain. With SI-2K I've shoot from -3db to +9dB gain, all to get more control of the results, all outputs are still RAW.

PETA claims anti-Mario campaign was a joke
You think we're over-reacting?
PETA, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, has responded to fan backlash over this week's anti-Mario campaign, insisting it wasn't an attack on the Ninty mascot, but a humorous attempt to raise awareness of a serious issue.
"Mario fans: Relax! PETA's game was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, a fun way to call attention to a serious issue, that raccoon dogs are skinned alive for their fur," Shakira Croce, PETA's media coordinator said.
The game involves a skinless tanuki, a Japanese raccoon, pursuing as Tanooki-clad Mario.
PETA insisted it was surprised at how seriously people took the game, but was thrilled that it had brought so much attention to the issue.
"No one really believes that Mario actually kills and skins a raccoon for his fur in Super Mario 3D Land," PETA spokeswoman Ashley Palmer told Kotaku.
"Our spoof is simply making a serious point: that there is a much darker story behind tanuki skins than Mario lets on. In games like Call of Duty, where characters shoot and kill animals, or in Dog Wars, where players have fun fighting and torturing dogs, it sends a dangerous message that this kind of behaviour is acceptable," she added.
More than a quarter of a million people played Mario Kills Tanuki in the first 36 hours, apparently. I tried it several times myself. It always ended with the skinless tanuki suffering further by falling down a hole. How ironic. ®

No. 86,117
LARRY JACKSON JR., a minor, by and through his Mother, Natural Guardian, and Next Friend VIRGIE ESSIEN, and VIRGIE ESSIEN, individually,
UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT No. 259,
1. When the constitutionality of a statute is challenged, the appellate court has unlimited de novo review. Before determining that a statute is unconstitutional, the statute must clearly appear to violate the Constitution.
2. In analyzing the constitutionality of K.S.A. 75-6104(o), the rational basis standard should be used. Under the rational basis standard, the law will withstand a constitutional challenge even if similarly situated classes of individuals are treated differently as long as there is some reasonable relationship to a valid legislative objective.
3. K.S.A. 75-6104(o) is constitutional because there is a valid State interest in the legislation and a rational connection between the State interest and the legislation.
4. The recreational use exception is a change from the general rule of liability found in K.S.A. 75-6103; however, governmental immunity was a part of the common law at the time the Kansas Constitution was adopted. This immunity applied to school districts.
Appeal from Sedgwick District Court; KARL W. FRIEDEL, judge. Opinion filed September 21, 2001. Affirmed.
Shayla C. Johnston, of Johnston Law Offices, P.A., of Wichita, for appellants.
Robert G. Martin and Richard W. James, of McDonald, Tinker, Skaer, Quinn & Herrington, P.A., of Wichita, for appellee.
William Scott Hesse, assistant attorney general, for intervenor.
Before MARQUARDT, P.J., GERNON, J., and TIMOTHY E. BRAZIL, District Judge, assigned.
MARQUARDT, J.: This is Larry Jackson, Jr.'s second appeal. In the prior appeal, Jackson v. U.S.D. 259, 268 Kan. 319, 995 P.2d 844 (2000) (Jackson I), the Kansas Supreme Court remanded the case to the trial court for a factual determination.
Jackson, a middle school student, attended a mandatory physical education class in the school gymnasium. After performing the required gymnastics, a student asked the teacher if the students could use a springboard to touch the rim of the basketball goal. The teacher consented. Jackson ran and launched off the springboard towards the basketball goal. Jackson's feet went out from under him and he landed on his back on a mat. Jackson's arm struck the edge of the springboard, which caused a compound fracture of both bones in his forearm.
Jackson sued Unified School District 259 (District) for negligence. The District filed a motion for summary judgment based on K.S.A. 75-6104(o), the "recreational use" exception to the Kansas Tort Claims Act (KTCA). The trial court granted the motion. Jackson appealed.
Because the Kansas Supreme Court held that it is possible for a gymnasium to fall within the recreational use exception, it remanded the case "for a factual determination of whether the school gymnasium is intended or permitted to be used for recreational purposes." 268 Kan. at 333.
On remand, the District filed a motion for summary judgment. Jackson filed a motion for partial summary judgment and argued that K.S.A. 75-6104(o), as interpreted by the Kansas Supreme Court in Jackson I, violated his equal protection and due process rights under the Kansas and United States Constitutions. The Attorney General intervened in the case pursuant to K.S.A. 60-224(a)(1) and K.S.A. 60-1712 to argue the constitutionality of K.S.A. 75-6104(o).
The trial court granted the District's motion for summary judgment and denied Jackson's motion. Jackson timely appeals.
Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides in relevant part:
"No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Jackson cites three sections from the Kansas Constitution Bill of Rights under which he claims that his rights have been violated.
"All men are possessed of equal and inalienable natural rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Kan. Const. Bill of Rights, § 1.
"All political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and are instituted for their equal protection and benefit. No special privileges or immunities shall ever be granted by the legislature, which may not be altered, revoked or repealed by the same body; and this power shall be exercised by no other tribunal or agency." Kan. Const. Bill of Rights, § 2.
"All persons, for injuries suffered in person, reputation or property, shall have remedy by due course of law, and justice administered without delay." Kan. Const. Bill of Rights, § 18.
When the constitutionality of a statute is challenged, the appellate court has unlimited de novo review. Injured Workers of Kansas v. Franklin, 262 Kan. 840, 844, 942 P.2d 591 (1997). The constitutionality of a statute is presumed and all doubts as to its validity are resolved in favor of constitutionality. Before determining that a statute is unconstitutional, the statute must clearly appear to violate the Constitution. State ex rel. Tomasic v. Unified Gov. of Wyandotte Co./Kansas City, 264 Kan. 293, 300, 955 P.2d 1136 (1998).
All parties to this appeal agree that in analyzing the constitutionality of this statute, the rational basis standard should be used. Under the rational basis standard, the law will withstand a constitutional challenge even if similarly situated classes of individuals are treated differently as long as there is some reasonable relationship to a valid legislative objective. Franklin, 262 Kan. at 847. This analysis requires a finding of a valid State interest and a reasonable relationship between the legislation and that interest.
The parties disagree on what constitutes a reasonable relationship between the legislation and the State's interest. The Attorney General argues that Jackson must "negate every conceivable basis" of the legislation. Jackson argues that the Attorney General misinterprets the case law. We agree with the Attorney General that under the rational basis standard, those attacking the rationality of the legislative classification have the burden to negative every conceivable basis which might support it. See Peden v. Kansas Dept. of Revenue, 261 Kan. 239, 263, 930 P.2d 1 (1996), cert. denied 520 U.S. 1229 (1997).
Jackson concedes that the State has a valid interest in the legislation; however, he argues that the Kansas Supreme Court's interpretation of K.S.A. 75-6104(o) will cause increased litigation because liability will have to be determined on a case-by-case basis. The District responds that a case-by-case approach to liability determination will be less expensive. Litigation costs exist irrespective of where the courts draw the line between a tort that is compensable and one that is not.
Furthermore, in Jackson I, the Kansas Supreme Court stated:
"The purpose of K.S.A. 75-6104(o) is to provide immunity to a governmental entity when it might normally be liable for damages which are the result of ordinary negligence. This encourages governmental entities to build recreational facilities for the benefit of the public without fear that they will be unable to fund them because of the high cost of litigation. The benefit to the public is enormous. The public benefits from having facilities in which to play such recreational activities as basketball, softball, or football, often at a minimal cost and sometimes at no cost. The public benefits from having a place to meet with others in its community. In the case of an indoor gymnasium, the public benefits from having a place to participate in recreational activities when the weather outside is wet or cold." 268 Kan. at 331.
There is a valid State interest in this legislation. There is also a rational connection between the valid State interest and the legislation. We hold that K.S.A. 75-6104(o) is constitutional.
Next, Jackson argues that K.S.A. 75-6104(o) violates his due process rights because the statute does not provide a right for the student to seek redress for injuries caused by the negligence of teachers or coaches.
The Attorney General and the District argue that Jackson failed to raise the due process argument below and is, therefore, precluded from arguing it on appeal. Where constitutional grounds for reversal are asserted for the first time on appeal, they are not properly before the appellate court for review. Ruddick v. Boeing Co., 263 Kan. 494, 498, 949 P.2d 1132 (1997).
In his supplemental brief, Jackson argues that the due process argument was implicit in his equal protection argument before the trial court and that his argument addresses the denial of the fundamental right of full access to the courts. Appellate courts will address a constitutional argument for the first time on appeal if it is necessary to serve the interests of justice or prevent the denial of a fundamental right. In re M.M.L., 258 Kan. 254, 261, 900 P.2d 813 (1995).
Jackson's due process argument is not properly before this court and the exception to the rule in M.M.L. does not apply in this case. A fundamental right as set forth in the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits states from depriving any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. U.S. Const. Amend. XIV, § 1.
Jackson asserts that the KTCA took away his right to seek recovery for simple negligence. It is true that the recreational use exception is a change from the general rule of liability found in K.S.A. 75-6103; however, governmental immunity was a part of the common law at the time the Kansas Constitution was adopted. Brown v. Wichita State University, 219 Kan. 2, 5, 547 P.2d 1015 (1976). This immunity applied to school districts. See McGraw v. Rural High School, 120 Kan. 413, 243 Pac. 1038 (1926). While it appears that the legislature has failed to provide a remedy for simple negligence in this case, Jackson has failed to establish there ever was such a remedy.
Finally, Jackson argues that the trial court erred in granting the District's motion for summary judgment and finding the recreational use of the gymnasium was beyond incidental.
"Summary judgment is appropriate when the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. The trial court is required to resolve all facts and inferences which may reasonably be drawn from the evidence in favor of the party against whom the ruling is sought. When opposing a motion for summary judgment, an adverse party must come forward with evidence to establish a dispute as to a material fact. In order to preclude summary judgment, the facts subject to the dispute must be material to the conclusive issues in the case. On appeal, we apply the same rules and where we find reasonable minds could differ as to the conclusions drawn from the evidence, summary judgment must be denied. [Citation omitted.]" Bergstrom v. Noah, 266 Kan. 847, 871-72, 974 P.2d 531 (1999).
K.S.A. 75-6104(o) merely requires that the location be "intended or permitted to be used . . . for recreational purposes." The Kansas Supreme Court noted in Jackson I that "[t]he injury need not be the result of 'recreation.'" 268 Kan. at 326. The minimum amount of recreational use must be something more than incidental. 268 Kan. at 330.
This court in Wright v. U.S.D. No. 379, 28 Kan. App. 2d 177, 179, 14 P.3d 437 (2000), addressed whether the recreational use exception in K.S.A. 75-6104(o) applied to a wrestling room. The Wright decision was issued after Jackson I. In Wright, the denial of the defendant's motion for summary judgment was based on the recreational use exception, and the court held the defendants could not be exempt from liability because the wrestling room was not outdoors. The Court of Appeals rejected that approach in applying the rule in Jackson I, which held the wrestling room could be an "open area" as contemplated in K.S.A. 75-6104(o). 28 Kan. App. 2d at 179-80.
The Wright court did not remand the case because there was sufficient evidence in the record on appeal to support summary judgment.
"Along with physical education activities during the school day, the wrestling and weight rooms have been utilized by the public for weightlifting, aerobics, and wrestling activities. The gymnasium has been used by the public for kids' wrestling, drill team, professional wrestling, twirling, alumni basketball, tournaments, and pep rallies. It is the school district's general policy that unless an organized school activity is utilizing the aforementioned areas, they are open to the public. When a school activity is occurring in one area, the other areas are simultaneously open for public use. Further, the wrestling room is obviously the location where wrestling practice is held. Being a member and practicing with the school wrestling team is a noncompulsory, extracurricular activity which, unlike compulsory physical education, is considered a recreational activity." Wright, 28 Kan. App. 2d at 180.
Similar facts are found in the present case. The District's motion for summary judgment submitted the following:
"9. During the 1994-95 school year, the Hamilton Middle School gymnasium was used by the public. The Wichita Police Department had a substation located at the school, and the police officers used the gymnasium during non-school hours for recreational activities such as basketball. AYSO soccer groups were allowed to use the gym during bad weather. Church groups in various basketball leagues would use the gymnasium for tournaments on Friday evenings and/or weekends. The Emmanual Baptist Church, located directly across the street from Hamilton Middle School, also used the school's gymnasium from time to time. YMCA-sponsored activities took place in the Hamilton Middle School gymnasium after school hours, including arts, crafts and cheerleading. There were also after-school activities sponsored jointly by the City of Wichita and USD 259 to help care for children after school had been dismissed. Costs for these activities were paid by the city of Wichita."
Jackson opposed the District's motion for summary judgment but agreed with the above facts. It is clear that the room in the present case was used by community groups for recreational purposes beyond incidental use.
Just as the court in Wright held as a matter of law, a room with similar characteristics qualified for the recreational use exception. We hold that the room in this case qualified for the recreational use exception.
