The Story of Johnnie Walker - The Man Who Walked Around The World

The iconic brand that Johnnie Walker (which has several legendary brands to its name such as Black Label, Red label, Green Label, etc.) is has an even more iconic story which i read thanks to Tata Crucible.

Later i found out the same story narrated beautifully in short on youtube.

Here is the same:

Ever heard of Cucumber Abuse

I read an article online and was laughing to my wits end. It is about cucumber abuse and ladies. I never knew that people even fight for something as naïve as cucumber. I wonder how much time people have.

Without dwelling on it further, here is a “Sarah’s secret commercial’ that will give you a hint of what I am talking about.

Problem with Wifi Connections

I heard this story today that says that some Japanese crackers have developed a crack that can break WPA (Wireless Protected Access) encryption on a Wi-Fi network within a minute.

Kobe University's Masakatu Morii and Hiroshima University's Toshihiro Ohigashi together developed a practical attack that exploits a vulnerability in the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol, or TKIP, that underlines WPA. While not providing full details of the attack for security reasons, the new approach is much faster than a previous technique that took between 12 and 15 minutes to expose the network.

The creators of the technique stressed that it won't work with WPA2, the second-generation wireless encryption method that uses the much toucher Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) at its root. AES is frequently used for safeguarding permanent storage, such as on some flash drives and in Apple's FileVault for Mac OS X. Virtually all routers and end devices that support 802.11g and 802.11n also support WPA2.

More details should become public at a Hiroshima conference on September 25th. There are no indications of a likely patch for routers or other Wi-Fi equipment.
