TTO - Theo thông tin từ Ủy ban Truyền thông đa phương tiện của Malaysia (MCMC), 51 website của chính phủ nước này đã bị tin tặc tấn công vào ngày 15-6 vừa qua.

Sau khi hệ thống website của Thượng viện Mỹ và CIA bị LulzSec hạ gục, đến lượt hàng loạt các website thuộc chính phủ Malaysia trở thành mục tiêu của nhóm tin tặc vô danh Anonymous. Với kiểu tấn công DDoS quen thuộc, nhóm Anonymous đã dùng mạng botnet gồm hàng chục ngàn máy tính ma để hạ gục hoàn toàn 41/51 website mà chúng “ghé thăm”.
Đến sáng ngày 16-6, cường độ của các vụ tấn công giảm dần, và theo MCMC “hậu quả của nó không còn tác động nhiều đến người sử dụng internet tại Malaysia”. MCMC không công bố danh sách những website bị hack, nhưng tất cả các website này đều mang tên miền gov.my.
Trước đó, nhóm tin tặc này đã công khai đe dọa trên các diễn đàn trực tuyến nhằm phản đối chính phủ Malaysia khi giới chức nước này đình chỉ hoạt động của 10 website phát tán những nội dung vi phạm bản quyền và kiểm duyệt gắt gao phim ảnh, show truyền hình trên internet.
Tuy vậy, báo giới Malaysia vẫn hoài nghi về động cơ thật sự của nhóm hacker này. Tờ Rianovosti của Malaysia gọi những kẻ đứng sau các vụ tấn công vào hệ thống website chính phủ nước này là những “Hactivist” – những kẻ tấn công vì mục đích chính trị. Rianovosti cũng cho rằng nhóm Anonymous này có liên hệ với nhóm tin tặc vô danh đã tấn công vào các ngân hàng và hệ thống chuyển tiền như PayPal, MasterCard nhằm trả đũa cho Wikileads đầu năm nay.
Cùng với LulzSec, Anonymous là nhóm hacker có nhiều “thành tích” phá hoại nhất trong năm nay. Vào ngày 11-6 vừa qua, cảnh sát Tây Ban Nha thông báo đã bắt được ba kẻ tình nghi là thành viên của Anonymous , những người này đều bị buộc tội đã tấn công hệ thống website của Sony và một loạt các ngân hàng để chiếm đoạt thông tin tín dụng.

17/06 How To Live Long and Prosper

The new film How to Live Forever will show you how to live to be 1,000 years old! Or it’ll give you chuckle while exploring mortality.
By Chris Opfer
It might not happen today or tomorrow, and it certainly didn’t happen when that old kook Harold Camping caused a frenzy with his doomsday prediction back in May. But you, sir, are eventually going to die. And a new documentary in theaters, How to Live Forever, humorously explores what growing old means nowadays, and the lengths some people go to in hopes of postponing death.
Filmmaker Mark Wexler encounters a fitness pioneer pushing the century mark, a 101-year-old chain-smoking, beer-guzzling marathon runner, a leading man in Japan’s “elder porn” film industry, and a slew of other characters on his quest to see how he, as an aging American, can continue to live long and prosper. Here are a few tips we pulled from the film:
Find your ikigai
See this dude to the left? That’s Buster Martin. He lived to be 101 years old before dying last April. Martin was a runner, a smoker, and a drinker. He even completed the London Marathon in 2008 — after taking numerous smoke breaks, of course. ”I like to have a pint, and I like to have a smoke,” he admits to the camera.
See this dude to the left? That’s Buster Martin. He lived to be 101 years old before dying last April. Martin was a runner, a smoker, and a drinker. He even completed the London Marathon in 2008 — after taking numerous smoke breaks, of course. ”I like to have a pint, and I like to have a smoke,” he admits to the camera.
While two of his three habits contradict a traditional healthy lifestyle, they were what people in Japan refer to as ikigai (ee-ki-guy), or ”a reason to get up in the morning,” Wexler says.
Ikigai can be whatever helps you find meaning in life. Martin had booze, smokes, and running. For others, it might be fishing or writing. And, as you’ll find out next, for Shiego Tokuda, it’s exercising his sexual appetite.
Keep your libido healthyShigeo Tokuda lives in Japan. He is 74 years old with grey, thinning hair, and he’s an adult film star who has been in more than 100 “elder porn” flicks. You can spot Tokuda in the film making out and licking the feet of lady in her 70s. While it’s creepy to visualize — and infinitely creepier to watch — to Tokuda, flexing his libido has helped add years to his life. ”Sex is a method of rejuvenation,” he explains.
The dude’s got a point. A healthy sex life boosts testosterone levels, which in turn helps strengthen bones and muscles. Sex is also a form of exercise that increases heart rate and blood pressure, burns calories, and releases bodily chemicals like oxytocin, prolactin, gamma amino butyric acid (GABA) that lead to better sleep. Also, according to researchers at the National Cancer Institute, frequent sex can lessen the risk of prostate cancer.
Watch what you eatCalorie restriction isn’t the same thing as cutting calories; it’s the belief that people who eat less will live longer. Instead of a guy consuming roughly 3,000 calories a day, he’d cut back to 1,200-1,5000 and feast on veggies and supplement meals with vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. The payoff, according to CR enthusiasts, is an additional year of life for every four years on the diet.
However, the people from the CR Society International have warned that decreasing daily caloric intake that drastically for an extended period of time can lead to horrible things like decreased testosterone, fatigue, food obsession, reduced bone mass, and the physical appearance of Mary-Kate Olsen.
“I tried it for two weeks,” Wexler says. “I’d gladly take five or 10 years off my life in order to be able to eat normally.”
If self-induced starvation is too extreme, you can use websites like Swole.me, an automatic diet generator that customizes food choices based on desired calorie count and number of meals per day.
Accept death instead of fearing itMany of the subjects featured in How to Live Forever had their own “secret” to finding comfort with their mortality. Before his death at age 96, workout guru Jack LaLanne continued to exercise regularly and pound carrot juice. Former Three’s Company star Suzanne Somers has found solace in hormone therapy — taking roughly 60 pills a day — to combat what she once referred to as “the Seven Dwarfs of Menopause: Itchy, Bitchy, Sleepy, Sweaty, Bloated, Forgetful, and All Dried Up.” (We know, gross.) And the weirdos people at ALCOR Life Extension Foundation think it’s completely sane to recommend freezing dead bodies until someone invents the corpse-reanimation technology.
“The film started as more of a scientific look at longevity … but I eventually came to the conclusion that it’s not all about the length of one’s life, but how it’s lived,” Wexler says.
And that means accepting death as a part of existence, and finding meaning in our lives during the time we do have.

17/06 余録:「〇〇は、ちょっとエビの味さえする。…
「〇〇は、ちょっとエビの味さえする。この味は蝗(いなご)の串焼きにもあるが、この方が強い。しかしおそろしく堅く、汁が少なく、本物の羊皮紙の一片をかむようである。私はアリストテレスが称(たた)えたこの食物を誰にもすすめることはよそう」▲ファーブルの「昆虫記」の一節だが、〇〇とは何か。実はオリーブ油数滴、塩、玉ねぎ少々で味付けしたセミの裸蛹(らよう)のフライである。米国のハワードという昆虫学者もやはりセミのフライを食べてエビを連想し、こちらは美味といえぬが結構いけると感じたようだ▲米学者がセミを食べたのは17年や13年ごとに大発生するセミが果樹園などに被害をもたらすため、食品として利用できぬか研究されたからだという(「世界大博物図鑑」平凡社)。米中西部のミズーリ州では、今年がその13年ゼミの大発生の年にあたっているという▲外電は、続々出現するセミを材料にしたアイスクリームが人気を呼んだが、衛生当局の勧告で販売を打ち切ったなどというこぼれ話を伝えている。店頭には「2024年まで品切れ」と張り出されたというのが話のオチだ。どうやら「研究」は今も続いているらしい▲世代ごとに正確に13年や17年という素数年をかけて成虫になる周期発生の理由については諸説あるが、卓抜な生き残り術の結果のようである。13年前の1998年といえば、日本では旧民主党などが中心になって菅直人初代代表の下で今の民主党が発足した年だった▲今は首相になったこちらの13年ゼミも夏限りの命運といわれるが、なかなかしぶとい生き残り術を見せる。煮ても焼いても食えぬのは試すまでもない。
