Pwn2Own 2009: Safari/MacBook falls in seconds

In case you missed this, in a security conference called Pwn2Own 2009, Safari/MacBook falls in seconds. Here is the link: http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=2917 According to Miller the winner, “It took a couple of seconds. They clicked on the link and I took control of the machine.” He describes Safari as “easy pickin’s”. I think at least for a while people should not flippantly say that macs are more secure than windows. But just to be fair, windows’ IE 8 also got broken into a little while afterward by another hacker. ...

Server Lock Example

If you want to use custom message on your iphone screen with Server Lock Example, here is how you do it. (My phone is 3G, firmware 2.2.1) First download a Terminal app, then download vim (or any text editor). Assuming you have Winterboard and have Server Lock Example turned on, we are now ready to go! Run Terminal, then cd /Library/Themes/Server Lock Example.theme/ Run " ls -l", you will see that there is a file called LockBackground.html. However it is owned by “root”, and you are “mobile”. So, let’s su as root then. The password is “alpine”. ...

boyfriend -> father -> friend !?

You must be kidding me! I was shocked when I read this article this morning. Johnston says he and Bristol broke up after ‘fight’ http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/03/16/johnston-says-he-and-bristol-broke-up-after-fight/ I thought they were pretty committed??? I once criticized about their coming together. [ post] And now, after a fight, they decided to break up? Quote: “We were just, we were in a fight,” he said. “And trying to see if we can make things work. But this is what it kind of ended up turning into. But we’ll see what happens. ...

霎時感動 - 穀倉裡的金錶 - 葉青霖

[youtube &rel=0&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1] 有一個農場主人,巡視穀倉時遺留下了金錶,之後他就張貼了告示,誰把金錶找回就得到一千元的報酬,農場入面的工人知道了,都紛紛興高彩烈地跑到穀倉幫農場主人找金錶。起初大家都拼勁十足,一直拼命地找,但始終沒發現,放慢了速度,有些人就覺得個穀倉太大,有些人就覺得那隻金錶太細,有些人甚至覺得是稻草太多,於是一個又一個失望地離去。最後剩下一個小孩,小孩心想他一定要得到這一千元,因為一千元足夠他一家人一個月餬口,但是他找了一天,真的太累了,坐在地上休息一會。突然,耳邊傳來了「滴答…滴答…」的聲音,小孩立即振作起來,一步一步走向傳出聲音的地方。最後,小孩找到了金錶也得到了農場主人一千元的奬金。 在我們日常繁忙的工作中如果能讓自己停一停,冷靜地思考一下,一定會有幫助。有平靜的心,就容易留意一些平時被忽略的細節,有時候這些小節就是成功的關鍵。

Saving Sarah Cain

This movie “Saving Sarah Cain” is good! I don’t want to give the story away. So briefly this story is about this columnist Sarah who became the guardian of a few Amish children. These children moved to Sarah’s apartment. And as you know, that’s completely two different worlds! Things happen and toward the end Sarah realized something… and that’s what the story wants to tell its readers… wowoowowow~~~ Must watch! ...

fast food nutrition facts

I just watched the dvd " super size me". I bought this long time ago but just never had time to watch it until today. The film maker Morgan Spurlock experimented on himself eating McDonald’s meals three times a day for 30 days straight. What a brave man! I mean, besides getting addicted to the fast food, and gaining 10% of his original body weight, he doubled the risk of getting heart attack, diabetes, and all kinds of health related issues. Oh, and he actually threw up in front of the camera one time. ...
