Israeli security researcher Aviv Raff on Wednesday published details about a zero-day vulnerability in Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) Internet Explorer.
Last week, Raff held a “treasure hunt” on his site, where he had hidden the exploit code. He declared “George the Greek” the contest winner in conjunction with the publication of details about the vulnerability.

According to Raff, an attacker can add a maliciously crafted link to any Web page that accepts user generated content that, under certain circumstances, lets the attacker take control of the user’s machine when he or she tries to print the page. (more…)

Remember the bang of the screen door on childhood summer days, the ones that bugged Mom because we invariably banged the door shut just as Victor Newman was about to grind another foe to powder on “The Young and the Restless”?
That’s been pretty much replaced by the soft whoosh of the pneumatic hinge on the storm door.
If your storm door still has scalloped edges along the window and an embossed X in the metal below, you might be surprised at what’s out there.
People are paying more attention to details like storm doors, said Daryl Woods, millwork specialist for Lowe’s in Bedford.
“The front door is the focal point of the home,” Woods said. “From the street, that’s where your eyes go. It’s about curb appeal.”
It’s not only aesthetics driving the interest, said Jeffrey Parobechek, an inventory management associate at Home Depot on Cleveland’ hobby collezioni s West Side. He’s heard a lot of interest in upgrading to a more energy-efficient door to help control heating and cooling costs. (more…)

In today’s litigious society, no profession can escape the cost and aggravation of legal claims and suits. Design Professionals, architects and engineers, are no exception. One important and distinct type of claim or suit is the professional liability or malpractice claim.
A variety of other types of claims and suits may be made against the design professional, such as claims for ordinary negligence, such as automobile liability cases, or slip and falls on the company’s property. There are suits for wrongful employment practices such as discrimination, sexual harassment, or wrongful discharge. Finally, there are suits for commercial disputes over contracts, trade secrets, and patents.
Professional liability claims are unique and distinct from other types of claims because they are made against the professional in relation to the performance of professional services and the specific duties owed by professionals which are not applicable to the public at large. As a result special rules and standards apply to these claims that do not apply to other types of negligence actions.
A claimant may file a claim or suit asserting professional negligence, as a tort, such as negligence or misrepresentation, or may assert the claim as a breach of contract claim or that the design professional was negligent in the performance of its contractual duties.
ELEMENTS OF A CAUSE OF ACTION FOR PROFESSIONAL MALPRACTICE
In the absence of a specific contractual undertaking, the architect or engineer design professional owes legal duties to perform their work in accordance with the standard of practice of their profession.
Generally speaking, in order to prevail on a professional malpractice or professional negligence cause of action, the Plaintiff must assert and establish:
a. what the standard of practice is for the design professional under the circumstances; (more…)

Home accessories come in all shapes, colors and sizes and there’s an accessory for every room in your home. Finding creative ways to use pillows, lighting, mirrors, flowers and candles can make all the difference if you are feeling trapped in a dull home. Consider some of the following ideas for a quick makeover.
A pillow’s decorative punch
Decorative pillows can add warmth, texture and dramatic accents to your home interior. Choose bright colors and bold patterns to add life to an otherwise boring couch or lounge chair. Add a colorful floral pattern to your stiff classical furniture to add a dash of the earth’s warmth. Bold patterns always look dramatic against plain fabrics and surfaces.
For every two patterned pillows, throw in a plain pillow to break the pattern. Too much pattern can become tiring on the eye.
Light’s subtle message
Interior lighting can work pure wonders. Whether you want to create atmosphere or attract attention to a piece of artwork or special piece of furniture, the type of lighting effect you choose will make all the difference.
Consider having two lighting options in your home. First, create a lighting design to suit your own practical needs when in the house alone. For example, when you are cleaning or reading you’ll need a large bright central ceiling light. But this isn’t appropriate when you have friends over. As a second lighting option create ‘entertainment lighting’ by choosing subtle small lights that you may hang behind or above furniture or on a side table or in the base of an indoor potted plant.
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Mirrors do two things. They create the illusion of extra space and they reflect scenes. The secret to hanging a mirror is to know just that. In a cramped room a strategically placed mirror could offer you the extra space you thought only remodeling would do. Always hand a mirror opposite things you want to see more of: opposite a piece of artwork, or window, or indoor plant.
Fresh flower power
Fresh flowers (or even good artificial ones) in a room can bring inside all the freshness of the outside world and literally transform a room. Match flowers with the colors of you accessories. Or place them on a table in front of a mirror.
The incandescent radiance of candles
Candles, whether lit or unlit, make the great final touch to your home. Use scented candles in the bathroom and votive candles to add that decorative touch to a formal dinner.

Spy equipment accessories may not seem very glamorous or exciting, but they are often necessary for the more efficient functioning of your surveillance or your counter-surveillance efforts. The fact of the matter is that there is more to spy equipment than just a neat gadget. There are accessories that are “behind the scenes” to make sure that everything runs smoothly, and that you have everything you truly need.
Most of the more useful spy equipment accessories are for cameras. These cameras are often surveillance cameras that can detect intruders and record vandals, helping you better protect your home. This equipment can help you keep your home safe, protecting your most valuable asset, and your valuables (human and otherwise) inside. The different options available to enhance camera performance can only aid your efforts to fortify your home.
One of the best spy equipment accessories for the camera is the illuminator. Illuminators come in various sizes and they are effective up to different ranges. These illuminators usually sit atop the camera, or somewhere nearby, to provide adequate light for the camera to pick up different people that come in its range. This is especially helpful at night, as most illuminators help the camera “see” in the dark what it otherwise would not have been able to distinguish.
Other helpful spy equipment accessories include camera housings. These housings for CCTV cameras protect them from the elements, helping them last longer and protecting your investment in better home security through premises surveillance. Some housing are even equipped with blowers and heaters. These keep the cameras from overheating during the summer and protect them from the bitter cold during the winter.
Other helpful spy equipment accessories include things like videotapes for recorders (long tapes that hold 9 or 10 hours of footage, as opposed to 6 hours) and power supplies and battery packs. Battery packs may even be rechargeable, making it that much easier to make sure your surveillance system always has adequate power to do the job. Additionally, plug and play cables of different lengths can add to the effectiveness of your spy equipment.
