...KEEP-AWAY ATTACKS BY THE MAN-IN-THE-MIDDLE The term Man-In-The-Middle (MITM) network attack is derived from the game we all played as children called keep-away. This game consists of two people playing catch, with a third person in the middle attempting to intercept the ball. This type of system works by causing party A to send information to party B using public/private key authentication. The MITM intercepts this communication and essentially creates two separate connections between the MITM and each party replacing the authentication key of each party with the key belonging to the MITM. The MITM then records/modifies the information and sends separate messages to each party. In this process, party A and party B appear to communicate normally. Neither party recognizes the MITM is controlling information sent/received during the exchange. Public access networks are common targets for this type of activity to occur. The MITM will set up a false Wi-Fi hotspot, choosing names commonly used by public areas, such as bookstores or coffee shops. Users connect to that public network, which then acts as a router to reach websites requiring user authenticity. The router logs user’s activities/credentials to access those websites. The MITM later utilizes the credentials for malicious purposes, such as access to online banking sites, personal information, etc. As the use of technology and the internet continue to rise and criminals continue to morph the access of vulnerabilities...

...Draft Following the horrific events of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, the United States has been unable to completely restore our trust in Middle Eastern nations and people for fear that they will plan another terrorist attack against us. In a post-9/11 world where Americans have become accustomed to associating Middle Easterners with terrorists, season 2 episode 1 of the television series 24 conveys this concept of otherness and the othering of Middle Easterners through its manipulation of time to show the dehumanization of Arabs as a threat to society and to stress the immediacy with which Americans must act against to such dangers. In this scene, 24 employs film analysis elements including windowing and time stamps to manipulate time in a way that emphasizes the immediacy of these actions and alters time as if it were real-time in order to show how Middle Easterners are often “othered” in a post-9/11 world. After the President of the United States has learned of the impending terrorist attack that is to occur in Los Angeles later that day, he says to a colleague that “there is a terrorist with his finger on a trigger, and [they’ve] got to get him.” While he is giving this statement, the episode employs a windowing effect in which the president is speaking in the top half of the screen and a Middle Eastern man, named Reza Naiyeer, is presented on the bottom half while he is driving in a convertible and speaking Arabic on the phone. The use of windowing in this...

...growing up they start to reach middle adulthood. In middle adulthood humans continue to make changes. However, these changes are different from any of the changes that an individual has been through before. Through observation, a lot can be earned about an individual on many different levels. The observer is able to analyze the individual on a biological, cognitive, and psychosocial point of views. This observation took place at the local electronic store. In this store there are different stations set up throughout the store where you can try out different video games before you purchase them. The man in this observation was in his fifties. The man was playing the video game Rock Band with what looked like his grandson. The video game Rock Band has a life like drum set and guitar. The point of the game is to plat the instrument by coordinating colors to those on the screen. This man was playing the guitar and the song that he was playing on the game was called Dead or Alive. On a physical perspective, this man’s development seemed to be appropriate for his age. As he plays the video game, you can see that even though he has glasses to help him see he is squinting to be able to see the TV that is right in front of him. By the time an individual reaches middle adulthood, his or her eye lens begins to thicken and the muscle that causes the eye to focus to objects starts to get weaker. This is evident during the observation when the man is having a hard time seeing...

The dandy is a well-dressed man, generally a man in high society. Being a part of high Roman society, Andrea is a young man that goes about town. He gives into pleasure and has several unethical affairs, removing himself from the romantic and authentic sincere self. Elena is the femme fatale, which became an important figure in literature around the twentieth century, which is proof that D’Annunzio’s writing style was ahead of his time. She fits the...

...While Queen Victoria was in power England saw rapid change in medical, scientific and technological fields. Throughout the mid Victorian era, (1850-1870), Britain was in its golden years. While growth in textiles, trade and machinery put twice as much money in British Merchants pockets a new order began to form. The first World’s Fair in 1851 marked the first stepping stone for modern technologies and the middle class. Families began to fall into a cultural norm, the idea that an individual, through hard work, could achieve economic success was in the front of men and women's minds. Gender roles established by a hard scrabble life in the past made a separation between men and women where men were superior to most women, women could work in...

...medium and the way he tries to make the people and surroundings look realistic. He uses warm colors in the center of the piece and lighter colors around the center and a blue cool color for the sky. The name of this artwork is Guy Fawkes Day which is a holiday celebrated in England. A man named Guy Fawkes was arrested for guarding explosives that were meant to kill King James I. This day was made to celebrate the failure of the attempt to kill the king. In the painting you see a man in the middle that is being cheered and praised, but it is definitely not the king. Is this the man Guy Fawke? Maybe William Witherington is trying to say that the people actually wanted the king to die and he is showing this by having Guy Fawke praised in the street of his painting. On the other hand, could this be the man that stopped the assassination attempt. The use of line is easy to spot in this painting. Men, women, and children point in the direction of the man in the middle of the painting. The eyes of the people also look in that direction. The man in the light brown coat is holding a walking stick that is pointing toward the man in the center. The lines across the building tops also lead your eye to the man in the center. William Witherington uses linear perspective to make it appear that the buildings in the background have distance between...

It considers qualities of individual consumer’s, for example, demographics and behavioral variables trying to comprehend individuals' needs. It likewise tries to survey impacts on the purchaser from gatherings, for example, family, companions, games, reference gatherings, and society by and large. Understanding consumer behavior gives the marketer an opportunity to see the effects of demographical variables on consumer preferences (Solomonet al, 202). Marketers apply this knowledge to segment customers when marketing their services and products. The consumer’s responses vary depending on the product and individual background such as lifestyle (Schiffman et al, 2009). For instance, when a company is marketing a car it segments the consumer’s according to theirpreferences which differ across demographic variables. Individual lifestyle attributes...

...The Middle Ages was an era characterized by an immense decline in art, learning, advancements, and much more. The Renaissance was a period in Europe that brought about many changes to Europe. It lasted from around 1300 until 1600. The French word “renaissance” translates to “rebirth” or “revival” in English. During the Middle Ages, people were focused on religion and going to heaven in the afterlife. Life on Earth was full of suffering and sadness, and people believed anything that the Church said, even without the evidence. However, the late Middle Ages caused new attitudes and ways of thinking to spread across Europe. People regained interest in Greek and Roman art. The focus of art was no longer religion, and it displayed the beauty of man....

...A shirtless young man stares out past the camera as if he is looking at the logo above his head. He needlessly clings to the rock to further accentuate his impressive body structure. The logo above his head reads “DOLCE & GABBANA” in a bold semi-transparent font. A small bottle of something is juxtaposed to his left. It is the item they are trying to sell, a sports cologne. This advertisement is very effective because of the use of ethos and pathos. Although those two parts are heavily used in this ad, logos is not present as much. Even with that being said many people are going to buy this particular cologne based on ethos and pathos. This is true because Dolce and Gabbana is a very well-known company, which plays a huge part in ethos with credibility and authority. Pathos is also used heavily with people wanting to look like that or women wanting their men to look like that; this makes the reader believe that if they wear this cologne women will be more attracted to them, and that they, too, can look as good as the model in the ad. This advertisement was featured in Muscle & Fitness magazine. This particular magazine is aimed towards classy young to middle-aged men who are professionals. This can be seen through the contents in the magazine. The magazine has lots of ads that are of watches, cologne, and nice cars. With that being said we do not believe that this magazine is geared toward younger teenage men because of what ads, pictures and articles in the magazine...

...evening, an old and wealthy man who is a regular at the café and drinks to excess. They discuss the fact that he tried to commit suicide the week before, but that it could not have been over anything important because he had plenty of money. The old man asks for another brandy and one of the waiters brings it to him. The two waiters discuss their customer further, saying his niece found him hanging himself and cut him down to save his soul, and that without a wife he must be lonely. One of the waiters is younger than his colleague is, and expresses impatience to close up the café and get home to his wife. The other one, a middle-aged man, defends the old man, saying that he stays so late at the café every night because he has no one to go home to. Finally, the young waiter refuses the old man’s order for another drink, and the man pays and leaves. The two waiters close up the café and the middle-aged one again rebukes the other, saying he should have let the old man stay. The middle-aged waiter says he understands the old man’s reluctance to leave, and that he is always hesitant to lock up because someone may “need” the cafe because it is clean, well lighted, and overshadowed by the leaves of trees. The young waiter boasts that he has everything: youth, confidence, and a job. The middle-aged waiter says he and his colleague are indeed different, and that he himself lacks everything but work. The two waiters part and the younger one goes home. The middle-aged waiter goes to a bar...

...time period from the dark Middle Ages to the age titled Early Modern. During this time period, scholars in Florence--and then much of Europe--revived the ancient ideas of the Greeks and Romans. That being said, the Renaissance was a completely different era due to: the birth of Humanism, revolutionary ideas, and the amazing pieces of art that were created during this time. Stunning pieces of art distinguished the Renaissance as its own time period unrelated to Medieval times. The best place to start is with the medieval mosaic, “Justinian & Attendants” by San Vitale. The mosaic is flat, depicts Christian themes, has no vibrant colors, and its most important figure has a halo around them (Doc 11). On the...

Marriages were arranged by the parents during this time in order to increase the status and wealth of each family. Courtly Love had very little to do with love in the middle Ages.

It was about 8:00 p.m. on a tuesday night when I had just finished for the day and was coming home from school and the gym. I stopped at Country Market, and I went inside to get a drink and pay for my gas. The lines for the cash registers were filled on both sides with about 10 customers waiting at each. I was third in line, behind a middle aged man in his 40’s, and finally an elderly man in front of the line was checking out. The elderly man was in his upper 70’s, and he had a handful of groceries. The cashier asked the man if he needed help out, he replied “No thank you I can take this out myself”. The old man was struggling to get his groceries, and I noticed the middle aged man was hesitating to help him, so I set my drinks down and went up to the counter and grabbed his groceries and took them out. Little did I know when I was carrying out the mans groceries the middle aged man saw my act of kindness, and he paid for my drinks and my forty six dollars in...
