Jabatan Pertahanan Amerika Syarikat Mengharamkan Pokemon Go Di Premis Pentagon
Jabatan Pertahanan Amerika Syarikat mengharamkan permainan Pokemon Go di premis Pentagon atas alasan kebimbangan kegiatan pengintipan agensi perisikan luar.
Rujuki laman ini www.washingtontimes.com
Ironinya syarikat Niantic Inc yang mencipta permainan ini, yang mempunyai hubung-kait serta penerima dana dari In-Q-Tel sebuah firma dana modal teknologi pelaburan milik CIA mengharamkan di bangunan Pentagon. ... Hmmmm, satu perkara yang memusykilkan dengan arahan ini. 👅 😱 🐰
Banyak sebenarnya informasi yang hendak dikongsikan antara Pokemon Go = Niantic Inc = John Hanke = In-Q-Tel = CIA ini. ... Namun siapa yang berminat dengan info sebegini jika ramai yang asyik dengan PokeStops dan Pokemon gyms.

Bagaimana pula pandangan dan reaksi pentadbir kerajaan pusat dan negeri?

Cell Phone Security Threats on Rise
Mobile phone users have more to worry about than ever before
Hackers and other nefarious types have always gone after systems that attract the most users (i.e. Windows for PCs). With the huge increase in the number of users that have smartphones around the world, mobile threats are becoming increasingly common.
Reuters reports that last year the number of threats aimed at mobile phones grew significantly. Security firm McAfee said that the number of new malware threats for mobile devices in 2010 that were discovered rose 46% over the levels in 2009.
McAfee said in a statement, "As more users access the Internet from an ever-expanding pool of devices -- computer, tablet, smartphone or Internet TV -- web-based threats will continue to grow in size and sophistication."
One of the major reasons for the new wave of malware according to McAfee is the wide use of Adobe PDF software and Flash being prime targets of criminals. PDF documents are a major way that malware is spread according to McAfee.
Google Android is being targeted by malware that embeds itself into apps and games according to McAfee. Late last year, a Trojan was let loose in China aimed at Android devices that was creating a botnet.
While malware and Trojans are increasing, McAfee confirms what other security firms have been saying, spam overall is decreasing. The decrease was especially notable in the second half of Q4 2010 when the level of spam dropped 62% by the end of the year compared to the start of 2010. The big drop was linked to botnets that were dormant during traditionally busy time of year.
McAfee itself is undergoing some big changes.Intel is purchasing McAfee, and the acquisition has been given the green light by the FTC and European regulators. The purchase is expected to bring better security to devices with tighter integration into the CPU.

Is This the Safest House in the World?
It wasn't so long ago that panic rooms were thought of as little more than a plot line for a Jodi Foster film or an expensive eccentricity of the paranoid. No more.
Nowadays, increasing numbers of homeowners are spending big bucks to have panic rooms, safe cores and other sorts of high-tech security systems installed in their home to ensure their family and possessions are kept safe from intrepid intruders and other calamitous events.
One residence, located high in the hills above Los Angeles, goes several steps further than a simple but effective panic room. The lavish and luxurious appointments of the sky-high mansion discreetly hide and disguise a security system so tight that it just may be the safest house in the world.
Modern-Day Fortress
The modern-day fortress was designed and built in 2002 by Al V. Corbi, a renowned authority on residential and yacht security. Corbi's stock in trade is designing integrated systems with detection, deterrence, defensive and offensive options. The heavily fortified and super secure residence occupies an easily defended promontory with 360-degree views. The well-defended dwelling stands five stories tall, measures almost 8,000 square feet and includes 32 rooms that all sit atop a virtually impenetrable batcave-like garage that will hold six, preferably armored, cars.
Safe and Luxurious
When not aiding the defense and security of its occupants, the fortress-like home functions like any other well-appointed mansion with deluxe creature comforts such as an elevator for whisking folks from the garage level to the living levels, a gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops and commercial grade appliances, two offices, a wine cellar and a home theater.
Buy Some Peace of Mind
The home's real luxury is, of course, the ensured safety of its inhabitants. Should an intruder manage to breach the extensive exterior security measures that include comprehensive surveillance abilities, there are two hidden panic rooms and two architecturally invisible "safe cores."
The safe cores consist of entire sections of the residence that can be isolated from the rest of the home and where the homeowner can retreat in complete safety -- not to mention luxury -- from an outside threat that might include an intruder, a natural disaster or even a nuclear, biological or chemical attack.
The homeowner declined to discuss some of the specifics of the heavy-duty security set up out of obvious concern that it could compromise the overall system. This means they're not going to tell this writer or anyone else but the next owner that the property is equipped with semi-automatic weaponry that can be remotely controlled from the panic room(s). It may not be, but then again, maybe it is.
Room for Refugees
In addition to the handicap-accessible guest suite, the seriously safe house has five bedrooms and eight bathrooms including a master suite with panoramic views, a fireplace, a luxurious bathroom and a custom-fitted dressing room that would satisfy any clothes horse with a penchant for high-powered security systems.
Whirly-Gig Accessible
The sprawling and tiled terrace on the roof takes full advantage of the 360-degree views that include Mount Baldy, the Palos Verdes Peninsula and the Pacific Ocean. There is also a built-in barbecue center and a spa situated under the heliport designed for emergency evacuations in the event of a home intrusion or for fire emergencies.
The Price of Safety
While it can be tough to put a price of the safety and security of one's family, in this case the tab is $7.25 million.
For more information and details on the safest house in the world, contact Bob Hurwitz (phone number (310) 477-8865 ) at the Hurwitz James Company in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The Russian Sukhoi SU-27 : $5M Buys the Ride of Your Life
The Russian Sukhoi SU-27 has a top speed of Mach 1.8 (more than 1,300 mph) and a thrust-to-weight ratio greater than 1:1. In other words, it can accelerate while climbing straight up. It was designed to fight the best the United States had to offer, and it can be yours for the cost of a mediocre used business jet.
Last week, we told you about a cool DIY jet. If you like the idea of a jet but not the thought of doing it yourself, John Morgan has you covered. He’s got a pair of beautifully restored Sukhoi SU-27 Flanker jets. They’re first-rate pieces of Soviet-era hardware designed to go head-to-head with the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle. They’re for sale, joining a very elite group of former military fighter jets offered for private ownership in the United States.
If you’ve always dreamed of being a fighter pilot, but missed your chance at the military route, this might be your chance to become a Top Gunski without having to deal with the Iceman trying to steal the limelight. Never flown a jet? No problem.
“We have a training program for any prospective owner” Morgan says.
Sukhoi SU-27 during takeoff
Morgan’s team at Pride Aircraft has “zero timed” the airframe and engine, so you’re getting an aircraft that’s just like new. Theses birds have been modernized with Western instrumentation, radios and GPS. Both are fully IFR equipped with U.S. avionics.
Nothing currently on the aircraft market comes close to these airplanes. Several companies talk about how their aircraft feel like a fighter jet or offer fighter jet-like performance. But it’s not very often you can actually buy a fighter jet.
Oh sure, there are a handful of former U.S. supersonic trainer jets like the Northrup T-38 out there, and the Douglas A-4 or MiG 21 fighters are impressive by any measure. But few, if any, airplanes come close to one of the best fighter jets made during the Cold War.
First flight of Pride Aircraft's SU-27
For the last 10 years, Morgan has built his reputation importing, restoring and selling Aero Vodochody L-39s, a small primary jet trainer used throughout the Eastern Bloc.
“One of our L-39 customers liked what we did and asked us to manage the Sukhoi project,” Morgan said.
The pair of SU-27s were purchased for a company that needed to do some high-altitude research (the jets can reach 57,000 feet). “They needed a platform that could carry sophisticated technology to high altitude,” Morgan says.
But the company went bust and the project faltered. Morgan decided to finish restoring the jets and put them up for sale. “We’re in the final stages in getting the last one licensed,” he says.
SU-27 landing with speed brake deployed
But who’s going to spend $5 million on a Russian fighter jet?
It’s definitely not for everybody, but if pure performance and excitement is what you’re after for, look no further. When it comes to sheer bang-for-the-buck, the SU-27 is tough to beat, says Tom Haines, editor in chief of Pilot magazine, published by the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.
“For what you get from a performance standpoint, and a thrill standpoint, it’s a great value,” Haines says. “Now, putting gas in them is another story.”
There’s always a catch, isn’t there?
The $5 million price tag is only the beginning. Even if you’re flying around without the afterburners lit, the Flanker burns 1,000 to 1,200 gallons per hour. With Jet A currently selling for $4 to $5 a gallon, this isn’t a cheap thrill. We won’t even go into the potential maintenance costs.
As for the training you might need if you want to own and fly the SU-27? Morgan recommends some jet experience before starting the training. Of course, his pilots are happy to teach you in an L-39, much the same way the original pilots of the Sukhoi fighter gained experience back at the peak of the Cold War.

DEBKAfile - We start where the media stop
DEBKA Reports: Iran buys 250 long-distance Sukhoi fighter-bombers, 20 fuel tankers, from Russia
August 1, 2007, 2:52 PM (GMT+02:00)
Tehran and the Russian Rosoboronexport arms group are about to sign a mammoth arms deal running into tens of billions of dollars for the sale to Tehran of 250 Su-30MKM warplanes and 20 IL-78 MKI fuel tankers. DEBKAfile’s military sources report Iran has stipulated delivery of the first aircraft before the end of 2007.
The transaction, Russia’s largest arms deal in 30 years, will endow Iran with a long-range aerial assault capability. The Sukhoi can sustain a four-and-a-half hour raid at its maximum range of 3,000 km against long-distance, marine and low-lying ground targets across the Persian Gulf and Middle East, including Israel and Lebanon.
The fuel tankers extends the Su-30MKM’s assault sustainability to 10 hours and its range to 8,000 km at altitudes of 11-13 km. The closest comparable plane in the West is the American F-15E fighter bomber. Iran’s acquisition of an exceptionally large fleet of the Russian fighter-bomber will elevate its air force to one of the two largest and most advanced in the region, alongside the Israeli Air Force.
Iranian air crews are already training on the new Sukhoi aircraft, ready to start flying them early next year with only a short delay after delivery. DEBKAfile’s sources report that Moscow is selling Tehran the same Sukhoi model as India received earlier this year. The Iranians leaned hard on New Delhi to let them have the Israeli avionics and electronics the Indian Air Force had installed in the Russian craft. India refused.
Russia began delivering the same craft in June to Malaysia, which also sought Israeli avionics without success. The Su-30MKM has won the nickname of “Islamic Version of Sukhoi.”
Its two-member crew shares the workload. The first pilot flies the aircraft, controls weapons and maneuvers the plane in a dogfight. The co-pilot employs BVR air-to-air and air-to-ground guided weapons in long-range engagements, sweeps the arena for enemy craft or missiles and performs as command-and-control in group missions.
Some of the plane’s systems are products of the French Thales Airborne Systems company. Moscow’s contract with Tehran for the sale of the Su-30MKM must therefore be cleared with Paris.
There is no decision in Jerusalem about asking Paris to withhold its consent to a deal which would substantially upgrade the long-range air assault capabilities of the Islamic Republic whose leaders want to wipe Israel off the map. However, President Nicolas Sarkozy is in mid-momentum of a diplomatic drive in the Arab and Muslim world and unlikely to be receptive to an Israeli approach. The only chance of aborting the Russian sale would be to route the approach through Washington.

Senarai Codenames Produk/Projek Intel Corporation
*************************************************
List of Intel codenames
Intel has historically named IC development projects after geographical names (since they can never be trademarked by someone else) of towns, rivers or mountains near the location of the Intel facility responsible for the IC.
