MalwareURL Netvibes (4603) Dead Reckonings » Magnetic Deviation: Comprehension, Compensation and Computation (Part II) William Thomson called them “beautiful and ingenious geometrical constructions,” and in variance to their rather humdrum name dygograms are certainly charming to the eye. But these geometric constructions can conveniently generate and then calculate the magnetic deviation of a ship compass at a location. With our electronic calculators and computers, we take for granted the effortless arithmetic and trigonometric calculations that so vexed our ancestors. Pre-calculated tables for roots and circular functions, generated through hard work, were often used to create tables of magnetic deviations for specific ships and locations. To reduce the chance of misreading these tables, a few types of graphical diagrams, not just dygograms, were invented to provide fast and accurate readings of magnetic deviation. Computing the Magnetic Deviation There were a few graphical methods of looking up the magnetic deviation on a ship at sea. Dygograms Dygogram I x = b cos θ + a cos 2θ y = b sin θ + a sin 2θ

Normal mode Vibration of a single normal mode of a circular disc with a pinned boundary condition along the entire outer edge. See other modes. A flash photo of cup of black coffee vibrating in normal modes A normal mode of an oscillating system is a pattern of motion in which all parts of the system move sinusoidally with the same frequency and with a fixed phase relation. When relating to music, normal modes of vibrating instruments (strings, air pipes, drums, etc.) are called "harmonics" or "overtones". The most general motion of a system is a superposition of its normal modes. The concept of normal modes also finds application in wave theory, optics, quantum mechanics, and molecular dynamics. Mode numbers[edit] A mode of vibration is characterized by a modal frequency and a mode shape. In a system with two or more dimensions, such as the pictured disk, each dimension is given a mode number. Each mode is entirely independent of all other modes.

Exploit Database (exploitdb) Sacred Geometry Analyzing Malicious Documents Cheat Sheet by Lenny Zeltser This cheat sheet outlines tips and tools for reverse-engineering malicious documents, such as Microsoft Office (DOC, XLS, PPT) and Adobe Acrobat (PDF) files. General Approach Locate potentially malicious embedded code, such as shellcode, VBA macros, or JavaScript. Extract suspicious code segments from the file. If relevant, disassemble and/or debug shellcode. If relevant, deobfuscate and examine JavaScript, ActionScript, or VB macro code. Microsoft Office Binary File Format Notes Structured Storage (OLE SS) defines a file system inside the binary Microsoft Office file. Data can be “storage” (folder) and “stream” (file). Excel stores data inside the “workbook” stream. PowerPoint stores data inside the “PowerPoint Document” stream. Word stores data inside various streams. Tools for Analyzing Microsoft Office Files OfficeMalScanner locates shellcode and VBA macros from MS Office (DOC, XLS, and PPT) files. pyOLEScanner.py can examine and decode some aspects of malicious binary Office files.

How to Use WinterBoard: A Walkthrough - Tutorials - iPhone Themes, iPad Themes While we might not see a free version of SummerBoard, one of the most highly-anticipated jailbroken apps, iPhone customization-junkies are turning to an alternative: WinterBoard. For those of you who don't know what SummerBoard is, it's an application that runs in the background of your iPhone and allows you to easily apply pre-made and custom themes that you can download directly from Installer / Cydia. The themes can have customized elements such as icons, backgrounds, title bars, docks, etc.. SummerBoard was created by a company named Nullriver (also the original creators of the famous Installer.app or Apptapp Installer, as well as the controversial Netshare App). Nullriver licensed the rights of SummerBoard, and Installer, to a new company called RIP Dev. RIP Dev has an application you can purchase ($45 for an unlimited subscription) that now has a more advanced feature-set of SummerBoard included (called FaceLift). Walkthrough 1. 3. Tap the WinterBoard icon on the Springboard. 4. 5.

Virus Watch Here you can see the malicious programs we have detected - in real-time. Every time one of our analysts adds a signature the list is updated. The first column shows the exact time that a program was added to the antivirus databases. The second column shows the time that an antivirus database update containing this detection was released. If you don't see the name of a specific malicious program, you can filter the list to find the detection and update times. You can also filter using wildcards. Please note that this is not a complete listing of all malicious programs which can be detected by Kaspersky Lab products, but the archive of the VirusWatch service which was launched in .

Amherst N.Y.: Prometheus Books (2000), pp. 302-311. (Note: This version differs slightly from the priblished version, which should be regarded as official). Much of alternative medicine, including Therapeutic Touch, is grounded on vitalism, the notion that living organisms possess some unique quality, an élan vital, that gives them that special quality we call life. The hypothetical vital force is often referred to these days as the bioenergetic field. Perhaps the most specific model for the bioenergetic field is some special form of electromagnetism. "Quantum" is the magic incantation that appears in virtually everything written on alternative medicine.
