The set of Migra, created by 7/8th graders at my daughter's school
(Photo by T. T. Cheng)
Yesterday afternoon, I was a proud parent at Mixed Blood Theater, watching the play Migra, written by the 7/8th grade students of my daughter's school. In the program, the Notes from Artistic Director (the English Language Arts instructor) explained:
This play marks the end of a semester of exploration for the students. We began the semester asking the question, "Who walked this land before me?….We followed that question with, "If my people weren't Native American, when, how, and why did they arrive here?" Rather than a genealogical study, the exploration looked to literature, art, film, and nonfiction from the countries of students' ancestral origins and reflected informally in journals and conversations as well as formally in essays. Students considered the past and the present and contemplated the impact of immigration and ancestry on their present day realities. Some students had not thought much about their ancestors, others had vast knowledge, and some had no choice but to constantly be considering their ancestry. While presidential race debates discussed current issues including immigration viewpoints, and our own city experienced the tragic loss of Philando Castille, these topics made their way into the students' writing, and ultimately into Migra….The views expressed in the play are not intended to represent the ideals of the school as a whole, or for that matter be directive, but they are, like all good theatre, an attempt to encourage the viewer: to question, to discuss, and to feel joy, disgust, fear, and passion. We hope that you take away the beauty of the adolescent mind–and the power of talking about all things sour and sweet, just as these brave individuals show us is possible.
Then in the evening, I attended the second of a three-series talk on the African-American experience by Macalester Professor Duchess Harris, co-author of two books for 6th to 12th graders, Hidden Human Computers: The Black Women of NASA (Hidden Heroes) and Black Lives Matter (Special Reports). These have been in-depth talks followed by audience Q&A, finally shedding light on hidden American history and its overlooked impact on America's past and present. Notable about these events, which are open and free to the public at Roseville Public Library (final talk is on Thursday, February 2, at 7 pm), is that the room is packed with people hungry for a broadened perspective and an honest start of a dialogue about their and our narratives as Americans.

Recently Park Square Theatre drew a crowd to the commemoration of The Ghostlight Project. This is an effort by theatres throughout the country to, according to Randy Reyes, Mu Performing Arts Director as well as a national steering committee member of the project, declare our theatres as "brave spaces where all are welcome to be who they are and engage in debate and dissent–and leave inspired to take action….Together, we will create light for those who need it most and pledge ourselves to work that honors all and celebrates the unconquerable human spirit."
Attendees at The Ghostlight Project commemoration event posted their pledges
Soon Park Square Theatre will also participate in the Coffee Sleeves Conversation Project with Coffee House Press, an internationally renowned independent publishing company and arts nonprofit in Minneapolis. Through its Books in Action programming, they have designed a unique way to create community discussions on race and the arts at local coffee shops and our theatre.
And as a parent, I am also proud of the fact that Park Square Theatre has a robust Education Program that opens the door to meaningful dialogue amongst our young people, many of whom are first-time theatre attendees. For instance, our on-line study guide for Flower Drum Song, currently on our Proscenium Stage until February 19, offers activities and resources for classrooms to consider "Stereotypes: Real, Perceived, or Debunked?," "Charting the Immigrant Experience" and much more. For A Raisin in the Sun, which will return by popular demand next season, they did not shirk from topics of redlining and white privilege. Park Square's study guides are, as our website describes, mindfully "created for teachers by teachers to introduce students to the world of the play" and, by extension, share and broaden their view of the world around them.
Educators volunteered their time during the summer to create the study guide for Flower Drum Song
Today we see arts funding once again coming under attack. But I wonder, as I go to a variety of venues and events featuring writers, actors, dancers, visual arts, students, etc.–often trying to be as financially and publicly accessible as possible for its creators and audiences, do people overall actually support this push? Do they truly not believe in the value of the arts in society? Or, this time, are they grateful for the arts but being fed, once again, the message that adequate arts funding is superfluous to the well-being of our communities? Is it a message that comes from the expansive Heart, or from some place much smaller?

Happy Mu Year!

The Chinese character 'xi,' meaning happy or joy
Calligraphy and photography by Bob Schmitt
Theater Mu was founded in 1992, added Mu Daiko in 1997, then renamed itself Mu Performing Arts in 2001 to better reflect its taiko and theater programs. In spring 2017, Mu Daiko will spin off as a separate nonprofit entity to continue its work, still carrying its Mu indicia.
But what exactly does the term 'Mu' mean? According to Mu Performing Arts, "'Mu' (pronounced MOO) is the Korean pronunciation of the Chinese character for the shaman/artist/warrior who connects the heavens and the earth through the tree of life."
In 2017, Mu Performing Arts will be 25 years old! This January and February, Park Square Theatre and Mu Performing Arts partner to co-produce the musical Flower Drum Song in celebration of this happy occasion.
Most appropriately, an ancient form for the Chinese character 'xi,' which means happy or joy, pictorially shows a flower-like hand holding a stick and a drum to make music and a mouth singing.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share a quick card with you. Haven't had much time to craft this week, I'm still organizing everything in my new room. I love being in here though. My design computer, the PC, is still without Internet. We are waiting for the people to come and repair the line for Internet in the bedroom. Hope to have it up and running tomorrow so I can get working on my design orders. It's also my crazy time at work, always at the beginning of the month so I have been super busy there too. So much on my to do list, I hope to get some caught up this weekend.
So for my card I wanted to share, I did this quick card using Nautical from my friend Kim's stamps, Wilson Designs. When I went up to her house to visit her I stole this set (lol jk). Isn't it a cute set? If you haven't checked it out, be sure to HERE.
I colored the sailboat with Copics and then used my colorless blender to make the polka dots and stripes. I also used the wave and cloud die from My Favorite Things.
Well im off to bed! Im beat!
This card is soooooo ADORABLE! Love it!
very cute, and I love how you used markers to make patterned paper.
I need to treat myself to some Wilson stamps real soon, they're so cute.

The first part of this research monograph discusses general properties of G-ENRBs - Euclidean Neighbourhood Retracts over B with action of a compact Lie group G - and their relations with fibrations, continuous submersions, and fibre bundles. It thus addresses equivariant point set topology as well as equivariant homotopy theory. Notable tools are vertical Jaworowski criterion and an equivariant transversality theorem. The second part presents equivariant cohomology theory showing that equivariant fixed point theory is isomorphic to equivariant stable cohomotopy theory. A crucial result is the sum decomposition of the equivariant fixed point index which provides an insight into the structure of the theory's coefficient group. Among the consequences of the sum formula are some Borsuk-Ulam theorems as well as some folklore results on compact Lie-groups. The final section investigates the fixed point index in equivariant K-theory. The book is intended to be a thorough and comprehensive presentation of its subject. The reader should be familiar with the basics of the theory of compact transformation groups. Good knowledge of algebraic topology - both homotopy and homology theory - is assumed. For the advanced reader, the book may serve as a base for further research. The student will be introduced into equivariant fixed point theory; he may find it helpful for further orientation.

Grove City Messenger
Board of education approves five-year forecast
By Dedra Cordle
The five-year forecast was presented at the Nov. 4 South-Western City Schools board of education meeting.
There were "no surprises" in the hypothetical representation of the district's financial future, said Treasurer Hugh Garside, but there may be some cause for concern coming down the road.
According to Garside, the district's revenue will continue to steadily rise throughout the projected forecast. This is due in large part to the recent changes made to how the state of Ohio funds schools.
"We are no longer considered a capped district," he said.
The 'capped' designation had rankled members on the board in the past as it meant the district lost out on roughly $11 million of additional funds per year due to the funding formula previously used.
Under the biennial budget bill that was signed into law this summer, the district will see an increase in funding of 4.2 percent and 1.7 percent in the fiscal years 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, respectively.
The district will also receive additional funds through a newly-implemented Student Wellness and Success fund and an Enrollment Growth Supplement. Garside said he projects the district will receive $4.9 million and $7.2 million in fiscal years 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, respectively, through the student wellness and success fund.
The district will also continue to receive $1.8 million annually through a Tax Increment Financing agreement with the city of Grove City for the Buckeye Parkway Shopping Centre and roughly $3 million annually from the Hollywood Casino.
The projected revenue in fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022 are $281 million, $281.4 million and $289.7 million, respectively.
While the district's revenue stream continues to rise, so too does its expenditures. It is projected in fiscal year 2021, the expenditures will begin to eclipse the revenue.
"It is definitely a worry that we might be in deficit spending in the next fiscal year," said Garside.
He noted that just because expenditures are projected to rise each year of the forecast that does not mean they will be on ballot anytime soon.
"It's just something that we need to monitor and make adjustments to the budget if necessary," he said.
The district's largest expense, Garside said, is personnel services which consist of salaries and wages. Last year, the district reached a new three-year bargaining agreement with the South-Western Education Association and the South-Western Administrative Association. Each contract calls for a 2.5 percent increase in base salary annually.
The district is also set to begin discussions on a new contract with the Ohio Association of Public School Employees when their current contract expires in fiscal year 2019-2020.
Purchases services have also been forecasted to increase roughly 2 percent to 2.5 percent over the term of the five-year forecast. Supplies and materials are also projected to grow roughly 2.5 percent.
The projected expenditures for the fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022 are $271.5 million, $281.9 million and $305 million, respectively.
The district will continue to maintain a positive cash balance throughout the forecast with $211 million, $209.6 million and $193 million in fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Grove City Messenger – January 29th, 2023


BRENDAN RODGERS has revealed he tried to keep Raheem Sterling on £2,000-a-week for as long as possible.
Rodgers played a key role in the Manchester City star's development when he was in charge of Liverpool.
It was under Kenny Dalglish that Sterling made his debut for the Reds in 2012, however the England international truly began to flourish under Rodger's guidance.
And he eventually made a £50m switch to the Etihad in 2015, with his wages now reported to be around £180,000-a-week.
Rodgers, now in the hot seat at Celtic, has revealed he tried to keep Sterling on as low a wage as possible in his time at Anfield.
"There is one common denominator when it comes to young players falling by the wayside - money," he told the Daily Express.
"It distorts reality, it changes people. I'm always cautious of that.
"I had Raheem Sterling playing for England and a regular in the Liverpool first team on £2,000-a-week.
"I couldn't do it any longer than about the November time because he was absolutely brilliant, so we had to get him on a different contract.
"But I stretched it out as long as I could."
The Welshman believes club's must be patient in giving young players large sums of money.
He added: "With young players, one, they have to earn it and, two, you don't go overboard with them because they have played a couple of good games.
"Stay calm. See how consistent and professional they are, and if they are doing well they will always get rewarded.
"Let them get some games in their legs and go from there."

Charlize Theron says she had to train six weeks longer than Italian Job male co-stars
July 25 (Agencies) | Publish Date: 7/25/2020 11:10:02 AM IST
The Oscar winner starred in the 2003 movie The Italian Job alongside actors Mark Wahlberg, Edward Norton, Jason Statham, and Donald Sutherland. Like her famous male co-stars in the film, Theron, 44, had to undergo training before cameras rolled — but she says she was forced to train for six weeks longer than the men.
"I realized there was still so much misconception around women and the genre. Even though in that film the action is really based on on cars, we had to physically do a lot of that stuff," Theron, 44, said while appearing in a virtual Comic-Con@Home on Friday, via IndieWire. "There was a real pressure to pull off those stunts with the actors … there was a very unfair process that went with that. I was the only woman with a bunch of guys and I remember vividly getting the schedule in our pre-production, and they had scheduled me for six weeks more hard training than any of the guys. It was just so insulting."
"I was like, 'All right, you guys want to play this game, let's go,'" she said. "I made it a point to outdrive all of those guys. I vividly remember Mark Wahlberg, halfway through one of our training sessions, pulling over and throwing up because he was so nauseous from doing 360s."
Theron also discussed wanting to prove herself when taking on action roles early in her career.
"When I started my action career, it was so important to sell the authenticity of, 'Yes, I can fight and I can take this guy down and I can survive this,'" she said. "There was such a level of wanting to prove that to audiences who for years said 'No, a woman could never fight a guy that size.'"
The actress most recently starred in Netflix's The Old Guard, in which she played an immortal mercenary leading a team of fearless warriors like her. The movie saw 72 million households tune in during its first week of release, according to the company.
Directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood (Beyond the Lights), the movie has been a huge hit — and Theron can't quite believe it.
"It's pretty nutty, right?" Theron recently told Variety, reacting to the number of people who have seen it. "It's pretty crazy." (People)

A chair can be just a chair but sometimes a chair can really make a difference in a room. I have a signature chair in my lounge which to me really ties the whole lounge interiors together. It's black with rounded arms and is adorned with a white fluffy cushion. I found it in the street and it was the first piece of furniture that nerd boyfriend and I owned together. One day I'd love to own an Eames rocker like the one above and a Jardan Archie chair. But until then I'm quite happy with my off-the-street black chair.
Do you have a special piece of furniture too? What would you love to own one day?

Q: Laravel email verification redirect user back to verification url after login When a user registers a email verification link is sent to them that looks something like:
https://mysite.test/email/verify/3?expires=1574693909&hash=09ec600dfgdfgdfgc0b7c36bc775487fdgdg45312f46fc06107&signature=5581f53e9asdfasdf6f97657bc0f939a9bc368b6cd2dfgdgerg62c1711de44d

The odd behaviour is that the user must me logged in when he/she clicks on the email verification link, if the user is not logged in while clicking on the link they will be redirected to the login page, if they then login they will be redirected to the page that says they must verify their email cause of the auth:verified middleware.
What I would like is when a user who is not logged in clicks on the email verification link and gets redirected to the login page and logs in, then should be redirected to the email verification url again.
So is there any way to change so a user can be redirected to a special login page for a certain page? Or jusr modify the VerificationController to just allow none-authenticated users to "acitvate" their email by clicking on the link.
I was thinking to redirect the user to this login page that stores a session of the previous URL:
public function showRedirectLoginForm()
    {
        $previous_url = Session::get('_previous.url');
        $ref = isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']) ? $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] : '';
        $ref = rtrim($ref, '/');
        if ($previous_url != url('login')) {
            Session::put('referrer', $ref);
            if ($previous_url == $ref) {
                Session::put('url.intended', $ref);
            }
        }

        return view('auth.login');
    }

Then in my logincontroller I can simply redirect the user to the previous page:
if (Auth::attempt($credentials, $remember)) {
            if (Session::has('referrer')) {
                return redirect()->intended(Session::pull('referrer'));
            } else {
                return redirect('/account');
            }
        }

A: I have this problem before, my solution is you can delete $this->middleware('auth'); in _construct() method in VerificationController to let none-authenticated user to verify from their email then in verify() method inside VerificationController you can modify the code like this :
public function verify(Request $request)
{
    $user = User::find($request->route('id'));

    if ($user->hasVerifiedEmail()) {
        return redirect($this->redirectPath());
    }

    if ($user->markEmailAsVerified()) {
        event(new Verified($request->user()));
    }

    return redirect($this->redirectPath())->with('verified', true);
}

As technology further envelopes our world, it can be easy to forget that sometimes you need to rely on the past just as much as the future. While we are finding solutions to solve our most challenging issues every day, it pays not to forget what got us here in the first place.
These innovations would not exist without the knowledge of the past, and while it is useful to embrace technology that will make our lives easier, it is at risk of losing the tradition of times gone by. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but becoming too reliant on tech can cause us to become complacent, and for some who are well set in their ways, it can be a struggle to adapt.
Harvesting crops are something that has long been a profession that allowed for outdoor exposure, lots of fresh air and sunshine (hopefully), but also comes fraught with long and exhausting days that can wreak havoc on your health.
With advancements in technology, the hard work has been mostly eliminated, and that seems to be becoming more and more of a reality, with robots replacing pickers in parts of the world such as India. However, it would not be for these previous methods that have allowed us to further innovate. The knowledge of what needs to be done allows you to programme the machines to complete the same tasks, just infinitely faster.
Formerly, if you wanted to analyze an area for potential farming, you would need to pour over every inch of space to ensure that the ground had the properties to allow crops to grow. While this meant getting a lot of important exercises, it also meant it took far too long, and sometimes it was not always beneficial.
However, technology such as drones and digital 3D mapping allows this to be completed much faster, and at less expense for your back and feet. Using aerial vehicles can scope out the majority of the area to help you determine whether you planting there will be worth it. This allows you to stay in the shade with your felted slippers so you can be comfortable while you let the machines do the work for you.
Once everything has been cultivated and harvested, the next step in any farmers procedure is to get those products packaged and out for commercial sales. Machine developments have allowed this to become an infinitely simpler task, yet there might still be issues when it comes to quality.
While the machines do all the wrapping and packing, there still needs to be an element of quality control. We have all been at the supermarket pouring over the most attractive items, searching for perfection. Sometimes, there are products that don't look all that appetizing, and this could be from machines being unable to identify what looks most delicious. Retaining the human element to find which products look edible and are devoid of any unfortunate surprises is required when considering he best packaging process.
Technology permeates every industry that we know today. But just because it has made our lives easier does not mean that there is no place for the old traditions in these industries. As much as tech has evolved and become more than we had ever imagined, it still has its faults, and sometimes it is impossible to replicate the understanding of humanity.


After serious deliberation with a secret cabal of expert judges, we've reached a consensus. And now, the winners of the Dave Winer Remix Contest!
Grand Prize: Ralph Brandi, "Smoking Weblogs". Catchy beat, good musicianship, great samples. The "D-W-I-N-E-R" chorus is brilliant, and I can't get it out of my head. Plus, cowbell!
2nd Place: Scott Mulligan's "Goofin' On Dave Winer". Musically, the best of the bunch. The instrumental breakdown might be a bit too long, though.
3rd Place: Matt Canale's "This Is Not A Morning Coffee Note". The only one to use Dave's voice as percussion. I was wrong; Exsend's "Hi, It's Dave Here" used exclusively Winer samples for all percussion. Therefore, a tie!
So, that's it. Thanks for playing! I'll contact the winners about your prizes, the increasingly-worthless currency of the web.
Gotta agree on the "Smoking Weblogs" chorus. "D-W-I-N-E-R, D-W-I-N-E-R…" Those were all great.
People just love to jump up and down. Even Jesus does.
My mistake! The percussion samples were so subtle, I didn't notice. Excellent work!
Andy, not to be rude, the mp3 thing is great and everything, but can you post some more pictures of Eliot? He's soooooooooo cute.
Thanks, Natali. I'll try to get a few more up this weekend.
Woohoo!OK, now I sound like a freak. I'll shut up now.
Great stuff. I notice Dave hasn't put up any further audio posts since this contest. One thing I would like to have heard more of in the remixes: "Rogers Cadenhead." Such a sonorous name, good rhythm. It would have been a nice little chorus somewhere.

Атаки канального уровня — атаки на протоколы второго уровня модели OSI, называемого также канальным уровнем.

Введение
Технологии канального уровня составляют основу локальных сетей, поэтому обеспечение безопасности их работы — краеугольный камень безопасности сети в целом, так как взломав её на этом уровне, злоумышленник получает возможности обойти меры защиты на вышележащих уровнях.

Задача активного атакующего — получить доступ к определённым ресурсам или нарушить нормальную работу сети (отказ в обслуживании). Можно считать, что злоумышленник находится в локальной сети или использует посредника для проведения атак. Обычно выполняются несколько атак вместе; успех одной может являться подготовкой базы для успешного проведения следующей.

В зависимости от результата успешной атаки, можно выделить несколько типов угроз:
 Спуфинг с целью прозрачного перехвата информации;
 Отказ в обслуживании какого-то ресурса системы;
 Несанкционированный доступ к участкам сети;
 Нарушение правильной работы сети или её участков.

Большинство атак не являются «искусственными», они основаны на стандартном поведении протоколов канального уровня, то есть возможность их проведения является следствием небрежного проектирования сетевой инфраструктуры.

Статистика атак
Согласно докладу компании Qrator за 2015 год большинство современных сетевых атак совмещают в себе атаки на канальный и прикладной уровни. Компания Arbor Networks в своём ежегодном докладе за 2016 год отмечает рост DDoS атак такого рода на 14 % от общего количества DDoS атак, с 42 % до 56 %. Несмотря на то, что нападения извне исключительно на канальный уровень утратили свою актуальность, они продолжают быть ключевой составляющей большинства сетевых атак. Также необходимо учитывать, что значительная часть внутренних нападений основана именно на атаках на протоколы канального уровня.

Атаки против коммутатора

Коммутаторы для своей работы постоянно используют таблицу MAC адресов, называемую также мостовой таблицей. Это улучшение по сравнению с функционированием концентраторов позволяет снизить объём широковещательного трафика в сети. Однако мостовая таблица не является бесконечной. Один из видов атак направлен на переполнение таблицы MAC-адресов, что приводит к снижению скорости передачи пользовательского трафика вплоть до полной неработоспособности сети.

Стандартным решением этой проблемы является ограничение количества обрабатываемых MAC-адресов для каждого порта коммутатора. Деление физической сети на несколько виртуальных уменьшает масштаб проблемы и облегчает её диагностику, а также позволяет более оперативно восстановить функциональность сети.

Атака на дерево STP

Классический протокол остовного дерева использует ряд таймеров для обеспечения своей работы, что приводит к некоторой задержке (порядка 40 сек) начала передачи пользовательского трафика. Поскольку построенная топология является деревом, в ней существует корневой коммутатор, через который проходит весь трафик. Всё вместе является узким местом не только в смысле быстрого и правильного функционирования сети, но также и с точки зрения её безопасности.

Пусть изначально в сети было два коммутатора: Root, корневой, и Switch1. Затем злоумышленник подключил контролируемый им коммутатор Rogue, настроенный так, чтобы стать корневым узлом дерева STP.

 Теперь весь легитимный трафик может быть перехвачен атакующим, что является реализацией атаки «человек посередине».
 Появилась возможность вывести всю сеть из строя, периодически включая/выключая Rogue коммутатор. С точки зрения его соседей будет происходить изменение топологии, то есть возникнет необходимость в запуске STP, хотя никакого «реального» изменения сети не происходит. Вследствие инерционности протокола, сеть станет недоступной для пользовательского трафика на некоторое время, что означает успешность атаки на нарушение правильной работы.

Решением проблемы с корневым коммутатором является правильное проектирование сети, а именно изменение приоритета «целевого» корневого коммутатора на максимально возможное. Также некоторые устройства позволяют игнорировать сообщения STP на определённых портах, что позволяет предотвратить обе рассмотренные атаки.

Подмена MAC адреса

Подмена MAC-адресов является одной из самых простых атак. Помимо реализации «человек посередине», она позволяет также вывести из строя сеть посредством нарушения связности, что может привести к отказу в обслуживании для ряда клиентов.

Решений данной проблемы несколько. Простое, но плохо масштабируемое — вручную или статически привязать адреса к порту. Несмотря на недостатки данного решения, оно активно применяется вследствие предсказуемости поведения устройств и редкого изменения физической топологии сети. Другой подход предполагает использование протоколов аутентификации с выделенными серверами проверки подлинности, например, протокол 802.1X.

Подмена DHCP сервера

Несмотря на то, что DHCP является протоколом прикладного уровня модели OSI, основная его работа сосредоточена на канальном уровне. Это означает, что возникновение проблем с его функционированием будет иметь последствия на одном из самых базовых уровней сети.

Первое сообщение DHCP Discover от клиента Host является широковещательным, то есть его получат все пользователи сети, в том числе сервер DHCP_server и злоумышленник Rogue. Они отправят свои ответы DHCP Offer клиенту, из которых он должен выбрать то, что его «устроит». По умолчанию в большинстве систем клиент выбирает первое пришедшее предложение, игнорируя остальные. Таким образом, открывается брешь: если ответ от Rogue придёт раньше, атака окажется успешной. Сервер может быть физически более удалён от клиента, чем злоумышленник, а также быть менее быстрым, поэтому вероятность успешной реализации атаки довольно высока.

Последствия:
 Злоумышленник может в своём ответе клиенту указать неправильные данные о сети, что приведёт к невозможности его дальнейшей работы, то есть будет реализован отказ в обслуживании.
 В большинстве случаев протокол DHCP предоставляет клиенту информацию о шлюзе по умолчанию. Таким образом, злоумышленник имеет возможность указать себя в качестве шлюза, что является реализацией атаки «человек посередине» на сетевом уровне.
Одно из решений — функция коммутатора, называемая DHCP Snooping, заключающаяся в следующем:
 Все порты коммутатора делятся на доверенные (trusted), к которым подключены DHCP сервера, и ненадёжные (untrusted);
 Сообщения, отправляемые DHCP серверами (DHCP Offer, Ack, Nack, LeaseQuery) и приходящие на ненадёжные порты, отбрасываются;
 Сообщения DHCP, приходящие на ненадёжные порты, которые содержат MAC-адрес, несовпадающий с MAC-адресом отправителя, отбрасываются;
 Сообщения DHCP, приходящие на ненадёжный порт и содержащие опцию 82, отбрасываются;
 Сообщения DHCP Discover рассылаются только по доверенным портам.

Атака на ARP

Протокол ARP по своей природе не является защищённым, так как не имеет возможности проверить подлинность ARP-ответа. Ситуацию осложняет наличие gratuitous ARP (ARP-ответ в отсутствие соответствующего ARP-запроса), отказаться от использования которого непросто, потому что на нём основан ряд технологий сетевого уровня.

Пусть A отправляет B ARP-запрос. Может получиться так, что запрос будет разослан широковещательно, то есть злоумышленник Rogue также получит запрос от А. В этом случае он получает возможность отослать ARP-ответ от лица B, реализуя атаку «человек посередине». Поскольку клиент A сохранит самый поздний ARP-ответ, атакующему достаточно отправить свой пакет несколько позже клиента B. Если в качестве клиента B выступает маршрутизатор, выполняющий функции шлюза по умолчанию, злоумышленник получает возможность перехватывать весь трафик между внутренней и внешней сетью, а также отбрасывать его, что является реализацией отказа в обслуживании.

Поскольку в большинстве сетей клиенты получают IP адреса посредством DHCP, а не ручной настройки, становится возможной защита от такой атаки при помощи DHCP Snooping и Dynamic ARP Inspection на уровне коммутаторов. Первая функция реализует привязку MAC-адреса к полученному через DHCP IP-адресу. Вторая проверяет соответствие MAC-адреса отправителя и содержания ARP-ответа; в случае их несовпадения кадр с ARP-ответом отбрасывается.

Атака на VLAN
Для передачи трафика разных VLAN между коммутаторами обычно используются магистральные каналы, или trunk каналы, при прохождении через которые фреймы определённым образом маркируются. Самым распространённым протоколом маркировки для магистрального канала является 802.1q. Он использует понятие native VLAN, кадры которого не тегируются. При неправильной настройке коммутатора злоумышленник может получить возможность пересылать трафик в другие VLAN, заранее маркируя кадры, что в общем случае не является ожидаемым поведением сети.

Рассмотрим топологию, изображённую на рисунке. Пусть native VLAN имеет номер 1 (по умолчанию). Router выполняет роль Router on a stick для всей сети, в том числе числе разграничивает доступ одних VLAN к другим. Пусть VLAN10 может пересылать информацию в любую другую VLAN, но обратный поток запрещён. Пусть Host — легитимный пользователь, а Rogue — злоумышленник. Пусть атакующий отсылает кадр, маркированный как принадлежащий VLAN10. Коммутатор SW1, получив фрейм с порта, принадлежащего native VLAN, не маркирует его, а пересылает дальше через trunk. Однако коммутатор SW2 на другом конце, получив кадр, замечает, что он маркирован, выясняет, какой VLAN он принадлежит, убирает маркировку и пересылает кадр далее во VLAN10. Как видно на рисунке, кадры злоумышленника выглядят так же, как и кадры легитимного пользователя для SW2. Таким образом, атакующий смог обойти ограничения, обеспечиваемые маршрутизатором Router, и переслать информацию напрямую между разными VLAN.

Решение данной проблемы довольно простое — достаточно использовать VLAN, не являющиеся native, для подключения клиентских станций. Однако по умолчанию порты коммутатора принадлежат native VLAN, поэтому необходима некоторая аккуратность при настройке портов, чтобы избежать проведения этой атаки.

Q: Display number of orders in customer grid I want to display the total of order for each customer, in the customer grid (Back Office).
Currently, I succeed to display the total, only if there is at least 1 order.
In _prepareCollection() :
$readAdapter = Mage::getSingleton('core/resource')->getConnection('core_read');
$select = $readAdapter->select()
    ->from('sales_flat_order_grid')
    ->columns(array('orders_count' => new Zend_Db_Expr('COUNT(*)'))
        )->group('customer_id');
$collection->getSelect()->joinLeft(
    array('orders_count' => new Zend_Db_Expr('('.$select.')')),
    'e.entity_id = orders_count.customer_id',
    array('orders_count.orders_count')
);
$collection->addFilterToMap('orders_count', 'orders_count.orders_count');
$this->setCollection($collection);

In _prepareColumns(), I added the custom column :
$this->addColumn('orders_count', array(
    'header'    => Mage::helper('customer')->__('Total nb of orders'),
    'width'     => '40px',
    'index'     => 'orders_count',
    'type'      => 'number',
    'sortable'  => false,
    'filter_condition_callback' => array($this, '_ordersCountFilterCallBack')
));

I can force the displaying of 0 by add 'default' => '0' in my column but it's not that I want : In my _ordersCountFilterCallBack function, I want to be allow to filter orders_count.orders_count == 0 and not orders_count.orders_count IS NULL.
Any idea ?

A: You can try below.
$select = $readAdapter->select()
    ->from('sales_flat_order_grid')
    ->columns(array('orders_count' => new Zend_Db_Expr('IFNULL(COUNT(*),0)'))
        )->group('customer_id');

I have not tested it but it should work.


Following a recent staff meeting, I sat around a table talking with several co-workers about how to get more engagement and participation during discussion items and project updates. One colleague asked: if we wouldn't simply talk at an audience during a training session, then why are we talking at our co-workers during items for discussion?
The photo below is an example of a team member taking it upon himself to engage the rest of our team during a project status report. Instead of enabling us to daydream about other things while he presented, he asked everyone to stand up and surprised everyone with an interactive flipchart (!!!) to ensure the team hung on every word of his project update.
Status updates don't need to be mind-numbingly boring. And if your team needs a little nudge to give you the feedback you need during your next team or staff meeting presentation, don't assume that they'll pay attention to you (let alone give you feedback) just because they're present in the meeting and you expect them to pay attention or offer inout. Make sure you spend a few minutes coming up with a plan to design a presentation that offers an opportunity to your teammates to give you the input you need.


Whether its juice, tea or water, we all have a beverage that we enjoy drinking. Mostly we use cups and mugs but when on the go, bottles are what make life easy. I have seen so many on the markets, mostly made out of plastic. Before I read up on plastic, I thought plastic bottles were the best option, while in reality they put life at risk. Drinking out of a glass container rather than a plastic one is much healthier, especially when having read up about most plastic containers which have BPA, and the havoc it wreaks in your body. (Wikipedia states, Bisphenol A is an endocrine disruptor which can mimic estroegen and has been shown to cause negative health effects in animal studies). More specifically, Bisphenol A closely mimics the structure and function of the hormone estradiol, with the ability to bind to and activate the same estroegen receptor as the natural hormone. Early developmental stages appear to be the period of greatest sensitivity to its effects, and some studies have linked pre-natal exposure to later physical and neurological difficulties. Regulatory bodies have determined safety levels for humans, but those safety levels are currently being questioned or are under review as a result of new scientific studies. A 2011 study that investigated the number of chemicals pregnant women are exposed to in the USA, found BPA in 96% of women . Consol Glass has now introduced trendy and stylish glass containers – the latest addition being the Grip 'n Go multi-purpose glass bottle and Healthmakers is delighted to be able to offer it to their customers. This 500 ml glass container has a curvy shape, and comes with a coloured silicone sleeve, and a silver lid lined with the same colour as the sleeve, making it suitable for all lifestyles. It is available in six chic colours, i.e. purple, black , grey, red, green and orange. The great thing about this bottle is that you can use it for water, juice or milk, without having to worry about a clash of flavours. Flavours do not impregnate the glass, so you retain each distinct flavour every time you use your bottle. Moreover, glass does not deteriorate, stain or fade – making this a 'must have' for every member of the household. Keep your drinks fresher, cooler and tastier for longer, while retaining all the nutritional benefits.
At a garden party, baby shower or wedding – these are great to use for beverages and can double up as party favours, attached with a little thank you note to the neck of the bottle.
At the gym, simply fill up with your favourite energy drink or water, and enjoy your active lifestyle.
For kids' lunches, the Grip 'n Go is completely leak-proof, easy to clean and is a healthier alternative for little ones, who are more exposed to the effects of BPA plastic bottles. The fact that its only 500 ml makes it easier to carry around.
Take the bottle to work and any other place you visit. The stylish shape and colour is sure to be an eye-catcher.
Dangerous chemicals are not released from the bottle into the liquid being ingested.
Glass goes beyond BPA-free as absolutely no hazardous chemicals are found in glass and while many plastic bottles are BPA free, they do contain other chemicals.
Glass has no smell and no taste.
It is environmentally friendly and FDA approved.
When it comes to your health, both short and long term, you should invest in the best products. Grip n' Go gets a definite thumbs up from me.

133-138 The Bust of Antinous
2010 SOLD for $ 24M including premium by Sotheby's
With Trajan, the Roman Empire reached its greatest territorial extension. By consolidating the fragile borders, Hadrian extended the pax romana for half a century. There was no chronicler during his reign but his journeys have been reasonably retraced.
Around the Mediterranean sea, Hadrian shows himself passionately Philhellene, which is politically clever since it is necessary to avoid the eternal rivalries between the Greek cities. He was in Athens in 129 CE and in Egypt in 130.
A Bithynian about 20 years old, whose physical beauty matched the canon of Dionysus, was part of the emperor's suite. His biography contains no verifiable element : in fact he was more useful dead than alive. His drowning in the Nile reminds the epic legend of Osiris. His name was Antinous. The emperor deified him by imperial decree and multiplied the posthumous honors.
The emperor is powerful and the courtiers are numerous. The iconography of Antinous-Dionysus-Osiris takes on an unprecedented scale, which will cease to be useful after Hadrian's death in 138 CE.
A larger than life marble bust, 84 cm high including the base, was discovered in the 19th century in Banias, on the Golan Heights. It was inscribed in Greek by the dedicatee, belonging to a Roman patrician family : "from M. Lucius Flaccus to the god Antinous". Such a signature is unique in the iconography of Antinous.
In 133 and 134 Hadrian led a very deadly war in the Judaea raised by Bar Kokhba. Banias, romanized as Caesarea Philippi, had a long pagan tradition which justified an ostensible support to the emperor.
The bust is incomplete : the arms are missing, a shoulder is detached and the nose is broken. Despite this condition, it was sold for $ 24M including premium by Sotheby's on December 7, 2010 over a lower estimate of $ 2M, lot 9.
Ancient Sculpture
1910 (<1913) The Ovoid Muse
2017 SOLD for $ 57M including premium
The art of Brancusi is too fundamental, too seminal and too personal to be associated with any artistic movement. Very gifted in his hands since his childhood, this son of poor Carpathian peasants arrived in Paris on foot in 1904. The period is exceptional : the artistic Parisian bubbling opens the way to his creativity.
He learns with Rodin that the human figure can be reduced to a single element. A head lying on a ground symbolizes the serenity. He appreciates from Gauguin that Oceanic tribal art can influence the modern universal art through its extreme simplification of forms. The skilled bearded strongman chooses the direct cut contrary to the practice of his time. He will influence Modigliani.
Brancusi began in 1907 to conceive his series of masterpieces. In Le Baiser he is the first artist who suggests a development of Cubism in sculpture.
In 1909 he creates the prototype of La Muse endormie in white marble. The lying head is an egg in which the facial features and the hair are only lightly incised. The nape of the neck is used as a support. Despite the stylization it is unquestionably a portrait of his model the baronne Frachon. The artist succeeded in the impossible synthesis between geometry and portraiture.
In 1910 Brancusi produces three plasters and six bronzes from his first Muse endormie. The bronzes are cast by Valsuani but the patina different in each of the bronzes is executed by the artist himself with a painstaking care.
On May 15 in New York, Christie's sells one of the six bronzes, 27 cm long, lot 32 A estimated $ 20M. This specimen has an exceptional matte and warm patina enhanced in places with gold leaf which is perfectly suited to the illusion of serenity desired by the artist. Please watch the video shared by Christie's.
1911-1912 Woman and Caryatid
2014 SOLD for $ 71M including premium
Amedeo Modigliani is a young Italian immigrant who is learning the tendencies of modern art in Paris at the Bateau-Lavoir. From his meeting with Brancusi he discovers the sculpture in direct carving, perfectly suited to his skills : Modi operates quickly and without rework.
Brancusi is one of the greatest innovators of sculpture. Reacting against the realistic details of clay and bronze, he is the first to seek beauty through basic and simplified forms that will lead him up to abstraction.
Brancusi and Modigliani find inspiration for their new styles in the antique and African arts. In 1910, Modi draws women topped with a tablette in reference to the Caryatids of the Erechtheion. His series of busts made in 1911 and 1912 will be his temple of art.
Modi is not yet famous. He uses limestone blocks taken from construction sites and carries them in a wheelbarrow to his modest studio in Montparnasse. His heads of women create around him a crowd of pure and stylized faces with the intense force of a tribal ceremony.
On June 14, 2010, a caryatid bust 64 cm high including the cubic base was sold for € 43M including premium by Christie's.
On November 4 in New York, Sotheby's sells a bust, 73 cm high including the base, lot 8. The press release of October 3 is announcing an estimate in excess of $ 45M.
1911 Modigliani sculpted the Timeless Woman
2010 SOLD 43 M€ including premium
Amedeo Modigliani made a dazzling pass in the history of sculpture.
His female heads are a synthesis of all ages and all civilizations. They are simple as the Cycladic idols, noble as queens of Egypt, Mannerist as a Botticelli, mysterious as African masks, serene as deities, geometric like the art of his friend Brancusi. They are designed to be viewed as a group, such as the Cariatides of a Greek temple.
Made in a very limited quantity, they were dispersed. Only the artist in his small studio in Montparnasse, or some friends at an exhibition in 1911 or 1912, could breathe the mystical atmosphere of the whole.
One of these statues, made of Parisian limestone, 64 cm high including the cubic base, is on sale at Christie's in Paris on June 14. It is obvious that this lot, estimated € 4 million, is exceptional. It is shared in an article in French by Le Figaro.
Modigliani carved the stone in direct cut. In 1914, he had to give up his vocation as a sculptor for reasons of health and money. His brush was as clever as his chisel to express the purity of the curves, and he became the best portrait painter of his time.
The information provided by Christie's did not leave any possibility for doubt: this sculpture is a masterpiece. Result: € 43 million including premium.
1911-1912 The Unfinished Temple
Modigliani is easily convinced by Brancusi that the direct stone carving may bring an utmost purity to art. Opposed to Rodin's realism, the two artists are attempting a conceptual art that their detractors include in the Cubism still highly disputed at that time.
From 1909 to 1914 Modigliani is obsessed with a unique project : to build a temple dedicated to feminine beauty. To provide a roof for his monument, he tirelessly draws figures of caryatids which he calls his columns of tenderness.
Around 1911 he finally exerts his indisputable skills for sculpture in a series of limestone and sandstone women's heads. These elongated heads with a long neck on a cubic base are similar to each other but details of the faces are different. The varied heights show that the overall design of the temple is far from fixed.
All art critics have searched for models and styles that have inspired the timeless beauty of Modigliani's women's heads. They are indeed a synthesis of aesthetic conceptions of all times and all cultures.
Modigliani carved about 25 heads. In 1911 five of them are recognizable by photography in his solo exhibition organized with the help of Brancusi in the vast workshop of Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso. In 1912 the Salon d'Automne aligns seven heads in the Cubist Hall.
In 1913 Modigliani feels that his project of temple is ready. He chooses to use marble and visits Carrara. He carved only one caryatid. His fragile health will not allow him to do more. He abandons his great project and becomes a portrait painter again.
A Tête 64 cm high exhibited by Souza-Cardoso and at the Salon d'Automne was sold for € 43M including premium by Christie's on June 14, 2010. A 73 cm high Tête from the Salon d'Automne was sold for $ 71M including premium by Sotheby's on November 4, 2014. In limestone as the two examples above, a 51 cm high Tête carved around 1911-1912 with no early exhibition history is estimated $ 30M for sale by Christie's in New York on May 13, lot 31A.
On May 13 we will offer Amedeo Modigliani's limestone sculpture, 'Tête', circa 1911-1912, in our New York Evening Sale of Impressionist and Modern Art.

1932 The Faceless Head
Being a muse for Brancusi was not a difficult task. He had met Margit Pogany very briefly in 1910 but liked the shape of her head which inspired him until the mid-1920s.
The heads sculpted by Brancusi are not abstract. He considers that everything that overflows, mainly nose and ears, is inappropriate to express the deep reality of a portrait. He gradually reduces these growths to a surface carving up to removing them completely.
Around 1925 he made a wooden bust 55 cm high on the theme of La Jeune Fille Sophistiquée. He takes Nancy Cunard as a model, without telling her. The heiress of the Cunard shipowners, she has an eccentric life that symbolizes the roaring twenties in the Parisian literary and artistic circles. She is sexually liberated and anarchist, and her attires are inspired by Africa.
The almost abstract head is indeed a portrait. Comparing with the photos of the period, we recognize the bulging forehead and the receding chin, and the stiff neck from behind. This disturbing muse always offers in the photos an unpleasant pout that we imagine also through the rare incisions of the sculpture. The pinched bun is an evocation of her signature bunches.
Brancusi made a plaster in 1928 and a unique polished bronze in 1932. This bronze is still installed on the marble base designed by the artist, for a total height of 80 cm. It will be sold at lot 19 A by Christie's in New York on May 15. Please watch the videoshared by the auction house.
Nancy Cunard discovered many years later that she had served as a model for this artwork. After hesitating in its interpretation as a bust or a torso, she expressed her admiration for the artist.
1955 Grande tête mince by Giacometti
2010 SOLD 53 M$ including premium by Christie's
The head and the bust, portrait or imaginary, with or without a base, is a major theme in the sculpture of Alberto Giacometti. This theme is interrupted when the artist reconstructs his universe with his existentialist triad in 1947, but returns beside the standing woman with La Cage in 1949. Inspired by his threadlike characters, he begins to reduce the width of the heads.
In 1954 Alberto refocuses on the portraits of his family and friends his sculpted and painted art. His brother Diego complacently becomes his preferred model. At the same time Alberto rediscovers his fascination for the famous bust of Nefertiti.
The graphic art of ancient Egypt used a flat profile figuration by which the two sides of the head cannot be seen simultaneously. A bust of Diego on a base, 38 cm high overall, is subtitled Amenophis. The head is a blade. On each side Alberto kneaded an Egyptian portrait of his brother. A bronze copy was sold by Sotheby's for £ 3.4M including premium on June 24, 2009.
At 65 cm high overall, Grande Tête Mince, also known as Grande Tête de Diego, will remain until 1960 the largest bust created by Alberto. Like Amenophis, it was designed in 1954 and edited in bronze by Susse in 1955.
Grande Tête Mince is the most daring of all compositions by Alberto. Since the two sides of the face are not seen simultaneously, they can be dissimilar. Indeed the portrait of Nefertiti has no pupil in the left eye, probably from its conception. Alberto's face is more wrinkled than Diego's. The left side is undoubtedly a portrait of Diego. The right side, kneaded in clay with deeper relief, could be a self-portrait of Alberto.
The bronze 3/6 of the Grande Tête Mince, with a dark brown patina, was sold for $ 53M including premium by Christie's on May 4, 2010, lot 13. The bronze 6/6 was sold for $ 50M including premium by Sotheby's on November 6, 2013.
1955 Alberto and his Double
2013 SOLD 50 M$ including premium
Already famous for his threadlike sculpture of bodies, Alberto Giacometti wants to push further his research of total art. In 1954, in his kneaded statues, he breaks with the tradition of classical sculpture which had been a way to offer to the viewer a realistic three-dimensional vision of the selected theme.
He used to say that he did not make a difference between sculpture and drawing. He then takes as model only his family and close friends, especially his brother Diego younger than himself by only thirteen months. People outside his narrow circle would probably hardly support to be so scrutinized by this artist in search of a new ideal.
The tall thin head 65 cm high is the masterpiece from this series which was cast in bronze in 1955 by Susse. The head is reduced to a blade but the view of each profile is as realistic as a drawing, with the frank gaze and the mouth opened for speaking.
This step forward revolutionized the modern sculpture, but Alberto's view of art history went much farther up to the flat figures in ancient Egyptian art, as it is evidenced by another bust of Diego subtitled Amenophis in the same series.
The two brothers had a strong physical resemblance and there is no doubt that Alberto sought also to reach the truth about himself. He voluntarily maintained this ambiguity in an exhibition in 1962 when he chose to name this sculpture the Grande tête mince rather than Grande tête de Diego.
The bronze 3/6 of the Grande tête mince was sold for $ 53M including premium at Christie's on May 4, 2010. The serial number 6/6 is estimated $ 35M, for sale by Sotheby's in New York on November 6. Here is the link to the catalog.
Please watch the video shared by Sotheby's.
The result, $ 50M including premium, is consistent with the price recorded on another copy in 2010.
Grande Tête Mince is a masterpiece of sculpture of the twentieth century. The assumption that one side is a portrait of Diego and the other side a self-portrait is fascinating and shows that this work will never deliver the whole of its mystery, the real mystery of mankind that is behind all Alberto's post-war art.
1959 Tête Sculptée de Dora Maar
At the beginning of 1941 Picasso relocates his series of busts of Marie-Thérèse, made ten years earlier at Boisgeloup, to his studio on rue des Grands Augustins. In the same year, he makes a plaster head of Dora Maar, 80 cm high. This domineering work, larger than life, is in an idealized style which is in total opposition to the dramatic or allegorical portraits of Dora that he was painting at the same period.
This plaster is edited in bronze in two copies by Susse in 1958 plus two copies by Valsuani at an undocumented date.
Picasso owed a debt of honor to Guillaume Apollinaire, who died in 1918. He had received a commission for the funeral monument of his friend in the Père Lachaise graveyard, but none of his projects had been accepted. In the mid-1950s he offered to provide the statue of Dora as a symbol of the ideal woman for a monument to Apollinaire in the square of the church of Saint-Germain des Prés.
One of the Valsuani bronzes was installed in the square in 1959. The other was kept by the artist, which suggests that the cast by Valsuani was made especially for the Apollinaire project.
The copy which had been kept by Picasso was sold for $ 29M including premium by Sotheby's on November 7, 2007 over a lower estimate of $ 20M, lot 22.
1965 Le Nez by Giacometti
2021 SOLD for $ 78M by Sotheby's
In his post war nightmares and hallucinations, Alberto Giacometti lost the discrimination between the living and the dead. He is a sculptor : in 1947 he manages to immobilize this ambiguity in plasters. Fragmenting the human organs, he conceives Le Nez, La Main and Tête sur tige. Questioning the beyond in the same year, he creates his existentialist trinity led by L'Homme au doigt.
Le Nez is a full head hanging to a rope within a cage, so that it cannot be perceived as a mere bust. The threadlike posts and bars of the cage are similar as those conceived by him is the 1930s for staging Surrealist figures. Such an existentialist expression of human forms in a cage had a decisive influence on Francis Bacon.
The narwhal tooth shaped straight nose extends far beyond the volume of the cage, providing a fake liberty to the encaged figure. The mouth is wide open for a scream. The very first plaster also had a red painted tongue and a spiral red clown wrap around the nose.
There is no doubt that the fragile balance of Le Nez was very difficult to transfer to bronze. That was done in 1965 by Susse in an edition of 6 plus 2 additional proofs. The head is cast from a replica of the 1949 plaster while the cage had been narrowed in the previous year for a more protruding effect of the nose. The cage is 81 cm high. Small roundels under the four posts assure a stability to that fragile piece.
The number 6/6 was sold for $ 78M by Sotheby's on November 15, 2021, lot 14.

T-Mobile Faces Federal Lawsuit After Hackers Steal User's Cryptocurrencies
CoinVedi 1 year ago No Comments
This past Sunday Carlos Tapang, a T-Mobile USA Inc. customer, filed a suit in federal court against the company, alleging lax security measures made it possible for hackers to access his wireless account and steal the cryptocurrency from his mobile wallet — tens of thousands of dollars worth.
Tapang, of Washington state, accuses T-Mobile of having "improperly allowed wrongdoers to access" his wireless account on November 7th of last year. After the attack, the hackers cancelled his number and transferred it to an AT&T account under their control. "T-Mobile was unable to contain this security breach until the next day," when it finally got the number back from AT&T, Tapang alleges in the suit.
The cybercriminals got away with 1,000 OmiseGo (OMG) tokens and 19.6 BitConnect coins. Next, they exchanged the coins for 2.875 Bitcoin, according to the suit. On November 7th, the price of Bitcoin was $7,118.80, so had the hackers cashed out then they would have netted a profit of $20,466.55. In just weeks after the incident, the token's price reached almost $20,000 per coin, but given the volatility of Bitcoin prices, and perhaps a desire to quickly turn the coins into cash, it's unlikely the hackers benefited from the surge.
The suit alleges T-Mobile is at fault partly because the carrier said it would add a PIN code to Tapang's account prior to the incident — but no PIN was implemented. And Tapang says there are other weaknesses: He alleges hackers are able to call T-Mobile's customer support multiple times in attempts to gain access to customer accounts. After several tries, sometimes they're able to get an agent on the line that will grant them access without requiring further identity verification. The complaint also lists several anonymous internet users who have posted about similar security breaches to their own T-Mobile accounts.
Tapang alleges he couldn't use his cellphone number and had to "expend time, energy, and expense," and also suffered "emotional distress" from the incident. He's seeking damages and injunctive relief, which could order T-Mobile to develop better security measures.
Mobile and internet security will come under further scrutiny as incidents such as this increase with the growing popularity of cryptocurrencies. Companies providing these services to their customers will likely need to implement tougher security measures to protect themselves from similar lawsuits and protect their clients from cybercriminals.

Four of Canada's most decorated female athletes donate brains to Canadian Concussion Centre
Toronto (May 9, 2018) – Three Olympians and a pioneer in women's hockey announce today that they are donating their brains to the Canadian Concussion Centre (CCC) to advance research on the effects of concussion in women. These are the first known female Canadian athletes to publicly pledge their brain to a Canadian research centre.
The women, all highly decorated athletes in their respective sports, are:
Cassie Campbell-Pascall: Two-time Olympic gold medallist, Order of Canada, Order of Hockey in Canada recipient and Queens Diamond Jubilee recipient.
Jen Kish: 2016 Olympic bronze medallist, 2015 Pan Am Games gold medallist, and 2013 Rugby World Cup Sevens silver medallist as captain of the Canadian women's rugby sevens team.
Kerrin Lee-Gartner: Olympic gold medallist and three-time Olympic team member in alpine skiing.
Fran Rider: Competitive athlete and life-long advocate for the advancement of Female Hockey in the world, leading the drive for Olympic participation.
"The Canadian Concussion Centre is honoured to receive the commitment of brain donations from these legendary Canadian athletes and I applaud them for their decision," says. Dr. Charles Tator, director of the CCC. "Research is showing that concussions affect women differently than they do men, and our ability to analyse the changes that can occur in women's brains as a result of concussions will help us better understand and treat these injuries."
As individuals with their own concussion history, each athlete has expressed common hopes that this pledge will help advance the understanding of concussions, particularly among women:
"I wanted to be part of such a great group of women to donate my brain to the Canadian Concussion Centre to help with concussion research down the road," says Cassie Campbell-Pascall, the only Canadian captain, male or female, to lead a hockey team to two Olympic gold medals. "I loved playing sports and have no regrets, but having had some concussions I would like to make sure that future generations are protected as much as possible while still being able to play sports at all levels. I am also glad to be amongst this group, as we are the first to donate our brains to Canadian research and I am extremely proud of that."
"There are limits to the research that can be done on a brain of a living person; and a lot of the research has been primarily based on men," says Jen Kish, Canada's 2012 and 2013 women's sevens team Player of the Year. "I'm donating my brain in hopes that it will help with better evidence-based treatments and prevention strategies for traumatic brain injury, and give researchers an opportunity to compare a female brain to what they already know about a male brain. "
"I have been living with, and healing from, a brain injury suffered in a car accident in 2016. Of all the serious injuries, concussions and high speed falls I had as a ski racer, nothing has been as difficult to overcome as the challenges of post-concussion syndrome and the effect it has on my daily life," says Kerrin Lee-Gartner, the first Canadian in history to win an Olympic gold medal in downhill skiing. "I am therefore donating my brain to the Canadian Concussion Centre with the hope of helping future generations in the prevention and treatment of brain injuries."
"Dr. Charles Tator is an amazing person whose life-long work has saved and enriched the lives of countless individuals. His work and positive vision are leaving a powerful legacy for future generations," says Fran Rider, president of the Ontario Women's Hockey Association. "As a competitive hockey and fastball player for 35 years and a participant in multiple sports, I am honoured to donate my brain to science in support of the outstanding work done by medical researchers committed to safety in sport and in life."
The CCC comprises a group of 19 clinician and basic scientists, and is one of few research groups in the world to examine the entire spectrum of concussion disorders from acute injury to chronic illness including brain degeneration. Today's announcement also launches a partnership between the CCC and the international, U.S.-based non-profit PINK Concussions to direct Canadian women interested in donating their brains to research institutions in Canada.
"The CCC has learned a great deal from examining the brains of 44 professional athletes to date, however all of the donors were male," says Dr. Tator. "It is important to include women as part of this research."
This weekend, the CCC hosts its 6th Annual Concussion Symposium. A public forum on May 11, and presentations and discussions by leading concussion researchers on May 12 will highlight the consequences of concussions to the families involved. The forum, which is free and open to the public, features remarks by the family of Rowan Stringer and the father of former NHLer Paul Montador, both young athletes who lost their lives to the complications of concussions.

Pawel Adamowicz, Gdansk mayor, dies after stabbing
The mayor of the Polish city of Gdansk has died in hospital, a day after being stabbed at a charity event.
Pawel Adamowicz, 53, was attacked on stage in front of hundreds of people on Sunday.
He was taken to hospital for stab injuries and underwent five hours of surgery at a local hospital.
A 27-year-old with a criminal record has been arrested over the attack. Police believe he used a media pass to gain access to the stage.
Poland's health minister on Monday confirmed Mr Adamowicz had died.
"We couldn't win," Lukasz Szumowski told local media, referring to the battle to save his life.
Thousands attended vigils across Polish cities on Monday evening, including in Gdansk.
President Andrzej Duda described the attack as an "evil hard to imagine".
He said the day of the politician's funeral would be observed as a day of national mourning.
How did the attack happen?
The mayor was stabbed on Sunday while attending the Great Orchestra of Christmas charity – an annual event where volunteers raise money for medical equipment in hospitals.
Moments before he was attacked, he posted a picture from the stage on Instagram.
Television footage from the event showed the suspect rushing the stage and stabbing the mayor several times.
He then shouted to the crowd before being tackled to the ground and arrested.
Paramedics tried to resuscitate Mr Adamowicz at the scene, before transferring him to a hospital.
What is known about the suspect?
Polish media say the suspect is a 27-year-old named Stefan – but his full identity has so far been withheld.
A police spokesman said the man had a long criminal history, including a bank robbery and an attack on a police officer.
They also confirmed that he was released from prison late last year.
Police say they are looking into how the suspect was able to breach the event's security.
While on stage, he reportedly shouted "Adamowicz is dead" and said the Civic Platform party, which led the previous government and had supported Mr Adamowicz's re-election, had wrongfully imprisoned him.
He also alleged he had been tortured behind bars.
The suspect will undergo psychological assessment to see whether he can be held criminally responsible for the attack, prosecutor Krzysztof Sierak said at a press conference on Monday.
Who was the mayor?
Mr Adamowicz was a popular figure – known best for his liberal political views and extensive tenure as mayor.
The father-of-two was from Gdansk and had held the position for two decades.
He first came to power in 1998 – and had been re-elected four times since, including in November.
Who was Pawel Adamowicz?
Doctors said the victim sustained injuries to his heart, as well as cuts to his diaphragm and abdomen.
Surgeons said he was given 41 units of blood during a five-hour operation on Sunday.
After news of the severity of his condition broke, local residents queued at the hospital to donate blood.
What has reaction been?
The BBC's Adam Easton in Warsaw says his murder has left Poland in a state of shock.
Politicians from across the political spectrum have condemned the attack.
On Sunday, Interior Minister Joachim Brudzinski described it as "an act of inexplicable barbarism".
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki described is death as a "huge tragedy" for Poland.
EU Council President Donald Tusk also paid tribute to him in a tweet.
After news of Mr Adamowicz's death broke, his official Twitter account posted a black-and-white photograph in tribute.
The post was met with dozens of messages of mourning.
President Duda said he originally planned to organise a march against violence with other politicians in response to the attack, but that on Monday he changed his mind to respect the wishes of the mayor's family.
"Together we came to the conclusion that marches organised by the authorities are not needed in the present situation," he said.
"If citizens want to organise marches, spontaneous marches, then please, they can do it."
