...athletes who dope. Cheating isn’t ethical and corrupt as it when the athlete is knowledgeable about what he/she is doing; making the deliberate advantage unjust. Lastly, performance enhancing drugs destroys the virtue of the sport. Sports are meant to allow athletes to perform to their natural ability – physically, mentally and emotionally. When doping is used in sports, it is not about who is best at that specific sport. It becomes a battle between who took the best drug and who has the finances to maintain as well as upgrade the dope. Honesty and respect is lost between athletes and fans. William Saletan explains that, “The definition includes 'courage' and 'dedication.' Doesn't it take more courage and dedication to alter your genes than to snarf a potato?” (Saletan, 2006, para. 13) and he could not be more wrong. It is crucial that you follow the rules in sports. It takes much more courage to say no to drugs as the athlete knows how much of an advantage he is getting compared to the other non-users. This “dedication” relates to fundamentals of the sport; while it is a competition, it must be played fairly and respectfully. A great example is Lance Armstrong. A famous cyclist who won many medals, whether it was local tournaments or the Tour De France, he seemed to win it all. Lance Armstrong was the biggest cyclist at the time, being role models to aspiring and upcoming cyclists as well as anyone who was a fan of the sport. He then later admitted to using illegal performance enhancing...

...Bluetooth From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about a wireless technology standard. For the medieval King of Denmark, see Harald Bluetooth. Bluetooth Developed by Bluetooth Special Interest Group Industry Mobile personal area networks Compatible hardware Mobile phones, Personal computers, Laptop computers Physical range Up to 60 metres[1] Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard for exchanging data over short distances (using short-wavelength UHF radio waves in the ISM band from 2.4 to 2.485 GHz[2]) from fixed and mobile devices, and building personal area networks (PANs). Invented by telecom vendor Ericsson in 1994,[3] it was originally conceived as a wireless alternative to RS-232 data cables. It can connect several devices, overcoming problems of synchronization. Bluetooth is managed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), which has more than 19,000 member companies in the areas of telecommunication, computing, networking, and consumer electronics.[4] Bluetooth was standardized as IEEE 802.15.1, but the standard is no longer maintained. The SIG oversees the development of the specification, manages the qualification program, and protects the trademarks.[5] To be marketed as a Bluetooth device, it must be qualified to standards defined by the SIG.[6] A network of patents is required to implement the technology, which is licensed only for that qualifying device.

Sitting in the parking lot of a Minneapolis Marshalls, a hacker armed with a laptop and a telescope‐shaped antenna infiltrated the store’s network via an insecure Wi‐Fi base station. The attack launched what would become a billion‐dollar plus nightmare scenario for TJX, the parent of retail chains that include Marshalls, Home Goods, and T.J. Maxx. Over a period of several months, the hacker and his gang stole at least 45.7 million credit and debit card numbers, and pilfered driver’s license and other private information from an additional ...
