NATO agrees common approach to cyber defence
2008-05-07 08:46:00 Leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation have endorsed a common policy on cyber defence at their summit in Bucharest, agreeing to set up a new authority that will coordinate NATO's "political and technical" reactions to cyber attacks. NATO leaders on Thursday (3 April) decided to develop the "structures and authorities" to carry out a new coordinated approach to cyber attacks. The new approach will aim to prevent and counter situations like the one seen in Estonia in summer 2007, when cyber terrorists crippled strategic network infrastructure, including banks. The new tasks will be carried out by the Cyber Defence Management Authority (CDMA), the launch of which was expected at the Bucharest Summit. However, the launch of the new authority was delayed due to "technical and bureaucratic problems" despite there already being "a substantial agreement on the concept," according to a NATO official who spoke to EurActiv in Buc...

Japan's former top defence official admits bribery
2008-04-25 10:29:00 Japan's former top defence bureaucrat pleaded guilty on Monday to taking bribes for military contracts in a scandal that has embarrassed the government. Takemasa Moriya, 63, who was nicknamed "the emperor" for his influence within the defence ministry until he retired last year, admitted to bribery charges at the first hearing of his trial. "I apologise to the public and to officials for being behind such crimes," Moriya said in his opening statement at the Tokyo District Court, as quoted by Jiji Press and Kyodo News. Moriya has previously admitted that he and his wife accepted fine dining, gifts and golf trips from a military contractor. But Moriya had denied wrongdoing, saying the contractor was a friend. It was Moriya's first public appearance since the former vice defence minister was released on bail in January. He was arrested on November 28. According to the criminal complaint, he allegedly took 12.5 million yen (125,000 dollars) in bribes that influenced the awar...

In defence of geeks
2008-04-21 22:46:00 There's an ad for BT on the telly currently in which a mother talks to her partner about her worries for her daughter who's spending lots of time on the internet. She pauses for dramatic effect, as we are left to think of the terrible things that could be happening to the kid. So what is she concerned about? Some sexual predator grooming her child? Oh no, it's much much worse than that... She's worried that her daughter is turning into a geek. Yeah OK, it's all light-hearted enough, but it misses an important point. If it weren't for geeks, there'd be no internet, no eBay, Amazon, Facebook and all the other crap that we can pass the time with. There'd be no computers for that matter, or iPods or mobile phones or CDs or any other electrical gadgets. I'm sure it was geeks (before they were called that) who developed cars, electrical power generation and the telephone. So let's all the hail the geek, for producing all this stuff to make our lives so much richer (there is a h...

2008-04-10 23:25:00 Fruits, fruits, fruits They're full of almost all the good things: vitamin C, fiber, nutritious fluids, and antioxidants. Fluids wash out the body and fresh lemonade is ideal. Its high level of vitamin C, labeled the detox vitamin, helps make toxins water-soluble so they flushed away easily. Humans are the only mammals that do not produce vitamin C in the liver. During Detox or colon cleansing the body needs higher levels of vitamin C than normal.Getting high concentrates of vitamin C from lemons is difficult as the vitamin levels decrease with storage.However, do not drink the processed lemon in bottles.The following is a list of fruits and their vitamin C levels per100 mg fleshJujube 500Apple 6Barbados Cherry 1,678Blackcurrant 155+Blueberry 1 ? 16%Grapefruit 34Kiwi 99 ? 180Lemon Juice 46Logan 84Mango 28Cantaloupe 42Orange 53Papaya 62Plum 10Raspberry 25Red currant 58Rosehip 1000+Tangerine 31Tomato 19Watermelon 1099 Foods With the Highest Vitamin C LevelsThe health guides state tha...

Teachers vote to keep Army "Propaganda" out of School.
2008-03-25 14:34:00 Paul McGarr, a teacher from east London, is in my opinion, a tw*t. Speaking at the National Union of Teachers conference, this is what he believes Army recruiting materials handed out to school kids should say:"Join the Army and we will send you to carry out the imperialist occupation of other people's countries"."Join the Army and we will send you to bomb, shoot and possibly torture fellow human beings in other countries."Join the Army and we will send you probably poorly equipped into situations where people will try to shoot or kill you because you are occupying other people's countries."Join the Army, and if you survive and come home, possibly injured or mentally damaged, you and your family will be shabbily treated."I can agree with the last one, the first three however are the typical simpering of ar*ehole who would not be able to spew out such crap if we did not have a martial tradition in this country.

Self-Defence - Dog Repellent
2008-03-24 11:47:00 While a dog is affectionately called a man?s best friend, unfortunately, its not always the case; some are quite aggressive and can be quite dangerous. The volatility of a dog toward strangers will depend on a number of factors such as breed (some types are more aggressive than others), how well they are trained, etc. Sadly, we hear more and more stories of aggressive dogs mauling small defenceless children, in particular. In some cases the victim is a member of the household of the dog owner itself. Copyright © 2008 Spy Review. This Feed is for personal non-commercial use only.

US defence chief in Indonesia talks on military ties
2008-02-25 09:21:00 US Defence Secretary Robert Gates arrived in Indonesia Monday to discuss potential sales of military aircraft and deeper military ties, despite wariness on the part of both US lawmakers and Jakarta.Gates is expected to press for expanded exchanges and training to solidify military ties that were renewed in 2005 after a 13-year break prompted by Indonesia's bloody crackdown on pro-independence protesters in East Timor.The Pentagon is also interested in selling Indonesia more F-16 fighter aircraft, C-130 transport planes and helicopters as well as spare parts for its existing US-made aircraft, US defence officials said.Senior US defence officials cite Indonesia's strategic importance in Southeast Asia and its political weight as the world's most populous Muslim state as key reasons for seeking closer military relations.But the officials said that despite full normalisation in 2005, military relations are still restrained by "a perceptual lag" in the US Congress and among Indonesian...

UNITED KINGDOM: British plans for wind turbines contested by defence minist
2008-02-14 17:23:00 Britain's defence ministry has raised objections over proposals to ramp up the proportion of the country's energy produced by wind farms, because of concerns over the impact of the turbines on military radar, The Times reported on Monday.A spokesman for Britain's business ministry conceded there had been "issues" regarding potential sites for wind farms, and military radar systems.The Ministry of Defence (MoD), however, insisted that all applications for new wind farms would be assessed on a "site-by-site" basis."The MoD is committed to government targets for renewable energy and whenever possible we seek to work with wind farm developers to find a mutually acceptable solution," an MoD spokesman said.According to The Times, the defence ministry has objected to at least four proposed sites for wind farms on Britain's east coast because they make it impossible to spot aircraft.The newspaper noted that, in written evidence to a planning inquiry in October, Squadron Leader Chris Bre...
