Resolved Question: Have you ever come across a Neo Barbarian?
Neo-Barbarians are often mistaken as Bikers and Pirate as they are prone to wearing Black T-shirts, leather items such as boots, gloves and many other forms of jewelry such as chains, spikes and skull decorations and sometimes mixes of the two ideas of modern pirates which has accounted for the mistaken identity of an increase rather than decrease of Pirates globally do to breading habits and similar attraction to expensive shiny objects such as gems, metals and oddly enough have a terrible addition to coin collections. # They can also be spotted at any sports event, both public and private or odd ball games that make no sense to anyone but themselves such as driving on their bellies through mud with incomplete motor cycles, anything as a competition in Japan, and food and drink consuming contests. # possess few things, have huge debts and think it is silly when bill collectors try to collect money from them as they have a bad habit of accessing big sums of revenue and yet are terribly broke as a result of spending that money on things such as strippers, pizza, strong drink and weapons which most of the time they do not really know how to use in the first place. # Any vehicle which is painted camouflage and often with a lift kit and excessively big tires even though no one else would make something like a Volkswagen Bug into something like a messed up monster truck, and will attempt this with any vehicle they receive their hands on in a group and adore Junk yard Wars. Also such vehicles will be decorated with skulls of animals and have human skull shaped ornaments, chains and other such things and look like rejected movie extras from Mad Max. # Hate country music and fear horses and will often fall down in fits of insane protest if someone "Bumps the Southern Sounds' that is in their minds meant only for Heavy Metal, or Rap. # Hate bright colors, but most of every pink and believe pink should only appear in one place and we sick not mention that here. Purple is also often heavily disliked but to date no one really knows why. # Think the Joker against Batman should have won. # Think Sci-Fi is a documentary yet profess they hate Battle Star Galactic, Like Star Wars, not sure about Star Trek, and think Far Scape women should have every been Naked. When it comes to the Movies Aliens and Predators they believe they could take them, and are preparing for Zombie Attacks as a potential future sport, and again believe they could take them and ready with trained carnivorous squirrels. # Usual wonder how much Pizza and Bear a UFO can actually hold and how many alien women they receive to bone. # Rarely give up a chance to battle and if they are too old to battle like they could when they were more physically fit often resort to video games. Many Play-Stations and Nintendo systems have been destroyed at their hands. # Miss the original Pac-Man becuase they just like the little yellow guy who though physically challenged with no eyes, ears, arms or legs could still by the sheer will of his spirit and power of his toothless mouth conquered those ugly colored ghosts. # Break things without trying and suffer from BICS syndrome which is Bull In China store. # Bad Luck is their best pal as they do not know who this Good Luck person is yet still bye lottery tickets. # Have traps below their pillows as kids and rig Christmas Trees and other Holiday Items to try and Catch Santa, the Easter rabbit and the Tooth fairy, so they can sell them and steal their goods. Many pour old Jolly Men, stray bunnies and; well you receive the point, have met terrible ends when discovered to be impostors and many Barbarian Parents have not played such roles for reasons of personal safety. Barbarian kids are notorious for being insanely smart but as a toss back flaw every Barbarian males become dumber as they receive older. # By the time the men are 30 they consider life is over, age faster, gain a lot of weight and plead for an untimely death out of sheer boredom and a loss of adventure and prone to go through a midlife crisis by the time they are 15 years old, though some are tardy bloomers and it happens around the age of 20. # Old Barbarian men have problems with finding underwear and boxers that fit right and expose their junk often to the horror of every others. It is for this reason even Barbarians believe the Old people of their kin are bad Spirits.

Tighter security coming in Firefox 4
LAS VEGAS--A new JavaScript engine, HTML5, tabs on top, and a new add-on framework are not the only improvements that users can expect in Firefox 4. At Black cap on Wednesday, a trio of security representatives from Mozilla detailed how the company plans to push the browser to be more secure for users while nudging developers towards safer coding practices.
Mozilla Security Program Manager Brandon Sterne demonstrated on Wednesday how this ostensibly dull code, which is part of Firefox 4's new Content Security Policy, will make the next-generation browser safer.
(Credit: Mozilla)One of the biggest fixes that's been implemented in the Firefox 4 beta (Windows | Mac | Linux) repairs a hole that affects every browsers, a decade-old vulnerability that was mentioned in the documentation for CSS2. The exploit is a CSS sniffing history attack, where malicious code can gain access to your browser history by manipulating link appearance and style. What made the bug so difficult to repair is that the simplest solution, to prevented every link style manipulation, would be like throwing the baby out with the bathwater said Firefox's director of development, Jonathan Nightingale. Changing an already-visited link's colors is one the most-used features of the Web, and it would be catastrophic to prevent that.
Mozilla's David Baron figured out how to solve the problem with a three-pronged approach that focuses on the user instead of the Web site. His solution limits what aspect of links can be tweaked to color, then "lies" through JavaScript so that although the page queries the link and reports back what it would look like if it was unvisited, the one that Mozilla's engine draws is the correct one, whether it's been visited or not. This solution also limits the amount of computation that the rendering engine needs to do, said Nightingale, which allows the focus to remain on the content and reduces the overall "heavy lifting" required to render it properly. "By limiting the link, there's fewer options for [link exploits that look like] dancing bananas."
Nightingale added that Wednesday's release of Safari 5.0.1 has incorporated the fix.
Another type of bug addressed in the Firefox 4 beta is an XSS primary scripting exploit. Brandon Sterne, Security Program Manager at Firefox, said that Firefox's new Content Security Policy directly addresses these kinds of problems. They gift a unique challenge, he said, because a fundamental problem with a Web site is that, "it's a document that pulls in every these different resources [text, video, or audio] into one document, treated with the same privilege. So it's difficult for the browser to know what was intended and was injection. With Content Security Policy we by default turn it every off, forcing the web site to turn it on one at time."
While that may sound like the CSP creates an unnecessarily big burden on developers, Sterne added that the CSP is designed to be backwards-compatible with existing Web sites. "It requires developers to opt in," he said, "but sites that don't recognize the header will just do business as usual. Research being shown here at Black cap shows that JavaScript frame-busting doesn't work anymore, so this addresses that."
The CSP can be implemented site-wide or only on specific pages within a site by including the relevant line code in the header. Mozilla anticipates that many big content-hosting Web sites will find the short-term investment of time to use the CSP worth the long-term safety results.
As HTML5 and other, newer technologies develop and mature into standardized code, there's a great potential for new security risks to open up. Nightingale spoke about one such vector: shaders. Shaders are not new, but their implementation in WebGL and OpenGL is, and could potentially open up new breaches. While he wouldn't go into specifics, he did say that Mozilla was, "spending a lot of time taking [shaders] apart, and making sure that we have good validation of our assumptions."
Browsing security means more than applying patches to vulnerabilities. Nightingale pointed out that the biggest security fix for Firefox 3 was implementing the session saver, which made it easier for users to recover open tabs after shutting down the browser. By allowing users to more or less pick up where they left off, Nightingale said, it encouraged them to apply updates more regularly, including minor-point but important security updates.
Other changes in Firefox 4 promise to be less technical. Firefox's approach to browser updates is changing, and sounds like in some cases it will more closely resemble Google Chrome's automatic updates. "There are updates that we want you to know about, and that you'll have a choice to install or not, but there's also updates that we just want to receive our security patches out," said Nightingale. Those silent updates will be rolled out first to Windows users because Windows experience the most security risks, he said, but Mac and Linux users will eventually look them, too.
Even with the stronger competition from Chrome, Mozilla says that Firefox remains an industry trend-setter. The company is looking at the HTML5 geolocation feature and how to maintain privacy. "We know that people will look at our implementation and look how we do it," said Nightingale. "We don't send any private information, and if we don't then nobody else will either. We're trying to put more of that control in users hands."
In Firefox 4, users can expect the geolocation notifications to be "friendlier". At this stage of development, it looks like you'll be able to ignore every geolocation alerts, turn off the service completely, or go back change your original selection.
The Weave syncing service, which recently changed its name to Firefox Sync, encrypts every of its data locally before sending it up to the cloud. Once in the cloud Mozilla says that the data is inaccessible without the user's password, which is stored locally.
The out-of-process plug-in feature that debuted in Firefox 3.6.4 for Windows and Linux and is coming in Firefox 4 for Macs, originally code-named "electrolysis," will eventually include isolated content processes and the new add-on framework known as Jetpack. This means that when one of those add-ons or content-processes crashes, the entire browser won't receive pulled down.
"Electrolysis gives you two sets of orthogonal benefits," said Nightingale. One is the protection of existing processes, and the other has a direct impact on comparatively low-powered mobile phones. "When content goes runaway, it doesn't hurt the UI responsiveness, and on mobile that matters even more." Nightingale said that users shouldn't be surprised to look the results of the electrolysis process isolation in mobile Firefox first.
Security vulnerability disclosure is a complex problem facing browser publishers today, one that requires a balance between between public dissemination of the bug and withholding the specifics of the breach until it's been patched. With Google calling its policy "responsible disclosure" and Microsoft labeling it "coordinated disclosure," Nightingale said that he doesn't receive hung up on nomenclature. "I would always rather people work with us on making the Internet a better place, rather than them not telling us. Once the bug is fixed, we open it up and share how the sausage was made."
At the root of browser security lies the question of how to balance user education such as not clicking on ads that promise you that "You've Won!" or that you need to run their remote virus scanner, with pre-emptive security tactics, such as patching holes but also exposing or blocking bad Web site behavior. For example, Comodo's Chromium remix, Dragon, takes an aggressive stance on ensuring certificates have been properly written, which is why that browser warns you before you go to Facebook.com.
As Nightingale lamented, though, "We're not every using the same terminology." Improving common standards for reporting and dealing with threats could fix that, but there's little indication that the five major browser publishers are about to collaborate and share the burden of security risks.

BlackBerry App World 2.0 beta arrives for some
BlackBerry-maker RIM has certainly been scrambling to generate excitement over the next stages of its smartphone development and operating system release. First there were the video sneak peeks, a couple of new services (here and here), and the invitation to a press event to show off a mystery device, plus a preview of the 6.0 home screen.
(Credit:
RIM/BlackBerry)
Now, RIM has started giving out beta versions of BlackBerry App World 2.0, the next generation of its application storefront, to a waiting list.
Among other feature enhancements, App World 2.0 will introduce an option to bill your phone operator or your credit card instead of just the capability to purchase apps through PayPal. This is a personal favorite of ours, though we're also looking forward to scanning QR codes. While BlackBerry already does this in its BlackBerry Messenger app--a free BlackBerry-to-BlackBerry instant messenger--to swap user details, the new implementations will broaden its QR code-scanning to incorporate apps and URLs, similar to Google's compatibility with its barcode scanner.
Also notable will be the BlackBerry ID that will connect your app downloads and purchases to a larger user account that will overarch your entire BlackBerry experience--though we wish not in a Big Brother way.
Make sure you also check out our rundown of these upcoming features and more for BlackBerry App World 2.0. You can also receive a glimpse in the gallery below.

StayFocusd fights the battle: Facebook versus work...and wins
Time-budgeting throughout the work day is difficult when the Internet's distractions are at your fingertips. StayFocusd is a Google Chrome extension that limits these addicting Web binges to a time span of your choosing so you can be more productive. Whether you want to block a specific Web site, a subsection of the site, or the Internet as a whole, StayFocusd does every of these things in configurations of your choice. Though it is intuitive and easy to use, this extension is very unforgiving; users must be sure about the sites they want to block because they will not have access until the next day.
(Credit:
Screenshot by Polina Polishchuk/CNET)
The download adds a round blue icon to the right-hand side of your address bar. This icon acts as the extension's headquarters; click on the icon when you want to block/allow sites, change settings, and set time limits. Though customizing StayFocusd is easy by clicking the "settings" link, once the time limit is up for a particular site, there is no going back. If this does not scare you, there is a "nuclear" option that blocks everything. If you still need the Internet except for a handful of sites, it is possible to block everything except for your "allowed" sites. Be sure to check out a list of FAQs in the "help" link once the add-on is installed, just so you know what you are getting yourself into. When you try to go back to a blocked Web site, a guilt-inducing message appears: "Shouldn't you be working?" The publishers are probably just trying to make you feel ashamed enough to donate; there is a link that asks for cash below the message.
More witty messages from StayFocusd
(Credit: Screenshot by Polina Polishchuk/CNET)If you do not want Facebook, YouTube, or that one blog with the awkward family pictures to distract you from work, use StayFocusd as a handy tool toward more fruitful work. However, make sure you are serious about your temporary Web diet, or else you will find yourself in regret, possibly browsing on your smartphone.

360 Panorama does instant, awesome panoramas
Shooting panoramic photos with a mobile phone can be difficult. Often times it requires doing every the work in a software app when you receive back from wherever you are, as well as trying to make sure that the phone's camera does not change its white balance or exposure between shots.
Occipital, the creators of the popular RedLaser scanning app (which wassold to eBay last month) have a new iPhone app debuting on Friday called 360 Panorama, which is attempting to change that. For $2.99, users can simply move their phone from left to right to capture a photo panorama. The end result is a single, panoramic photo that requires zero post-processing.
To use the app, users just hold their iPhone and move from side to side, capturing the area around them.
(Credit: Screenshots by Josh Lowensohn/CNET)Behind the scenes the app is actually using the iPhone's video camera, which means that users will need a 3GS or the newer iPhone 4 to use it. The app also takes advantage of the iPhone 4's gyroscope hardware to help judge how quickly you're rotating, so it can figure out what needs to be captured and where you've already been. As it records imagery, it stitches together an image based on your movement, which you can look and track to make any angle corrections. Some modern day point and shoot cameras like Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-W370 are able to do the same thing, though with a larger end result.
Size and distortions are ultimately the two things that limit this app from being as useful as proper photo stitching software. The images it spits out are quite tiny when compared with the still shots your camera takes. You can look this in the two sample photos I've embedded below (click on each to look it in full size):
A demo shot taken in downtown San Francisco. Normally this would take several shots, but 360 Panorama is able to capture it every at once.
(Credit: Screenshot by Josh Lowensohn/CNET)And a full 360 of an interior:
A 360 degree shot taken from inside CNET. (click to look in its original size)
(Credit: Screenshot by Josh Lowensohn/CNET)These issues aside, 360 Panorama is an incredibly neat, and genuinely useful app. It may have no business taking over the job of a good crisp, and low distortion still image, but if you want to quickly capture an incredible amount of detail of the world around you, it's tough to beat.
If you want to look how it works while using it, you can look it in the company's demo video below:
iPhone users can also check out OutmanTech's Video Panorama app ($1.99) and Boinx's You Gotta look This ($1.99), both of which work with the same basic principle.

Resolved Question: Math word problems-variables.?
1. When I was nine, I was very proud of a 35 years old silver dollar coin, which my grandfather gave me for my birthday. However, as I grew older, the coin didn’t seem as ancient, and by the time the coin was only twice as old as I was, I’d lost every interest in coin collecting. How old was the coin at that point? 2. A broker made two separate investments on behalf of a client. The first investment earned 12% and the second investment lost 5%, for a total gain of $1040. If the amounts in these two investments had been switched, then the result would have been a gain of $360. Determine how much was actually invested at each rate. 3. Andrea, Barbara and Chelsea visited a coffee store famous for its cakes and cookies. Andrea had a coffee and two pieces of cake, Barbara had two cups of coffee, two pieces of cake and three cookies, and Chelsea had coffee, one piece of cake and one cookie. If Andrea’s bill was $10.80, Barbara’s $21.60 and Chelsea’s $9.30, how much did a cup of coffee, a piece of cake and a cookie cost?
