Robocon 2007

INTRODUCTION



The legend of Ha Long has it that, 'Once upon a time, soon after the Viet people established their country, invaders came. The Jade Emperor sent Mother Dragon and her Child Dragons down to earth to help the Viet people fight against their enemy. Right at the time invaders' boats were rushing to the shore, the dragons landed down on earth. The dragons immediately sent out from their mouths a lot of pearls, which then turned into thousands of stone islands emerging in the sea like great walls challenging the invaders' boats. The fast boats couldn't manage to stop and crashed into the islands and into each other and broke into pieces.

After the victory, Mother Dragon and Child Dragons didn't return Heaven but stayed on earth at the place where the battle had occurred. The location Mother Dragon landed is nowadays Ha long Bay and where Child Dragons descended is now Bai Tu Long.

Ha Long is the wonderful and skilful masterpiece of the Creation and of nature that only Vietnam was bestowed. Ha Long has become the pride of not only the locals but also of all Vietnamese people when it was twice recognized as the World Natural Heritage by UNESCO for its geographical and geomorphologic values. With its unique beauty, Ha Long is one of the most ideal destinations in Vietnam.

The rules of Robocon 2007 are built basing on this legend of Ha Long. A team of robots (symbolizing dragons) will carry the blocks having the shape of cylinder (symbolizing pearls) to build various kinds of islands symbolizing 'Ha Long'; and 'Bai Tu Long' . The first team to complete the building of 'Victory islands' (in the shape of letter V in the centre of the Game Field) will be the winner. Duration of the game is three minutes.

Consumers braced for higher rates

Will consumers carry on shopping?
The vast majority of UK consumers are resigned to higher interest rates, a Lloyds TSB survey suggests.
Eight out of 10 consumers said they expected UK interest rates to be higher a year from now.

In addition, three quarters of consumers expect price inflation to rise over the next twelve months.

But despite the gloom over prices and rates, consumers felt more confident about keeping their job in April than they had done the previous month.

We're likely to see some slowdown in consumer spending but with job security remaining strong, the impact won't be drastic

Trevor Williams, Lloyds TSB

In total, 76% of consumers said they felt secure in their job.

Overall, the bank said consumers would take recent interest rate rises in their stride, because they had been widely anticipated rather than coming out of the blue.

Slowdown

UK interest rates have now risen four times since last summer, with some experts predicting further increases to come.

Consumers tightening their belts was likely, the bank said.

"With high price expectations and the recent rate rise we're likely to see some slowdown in consumer spending but with job security remaining strong, the impact won't be drastic," Trevor Williams, chief economist at Lloyds TSB Corporate Markets, said.

Last week, the Nationwide Building Society said that consumer confidence was at its highest since October 2006.

Legal action over ABN bank sale

The row over LaSalle has jeopardised the ABN Amro takeover
Bank of America has appealed against the decision of a Dutch Court to block its $21bn (£10.5bn) purchase of ABN Amro's US bank, LaSalle.
The appeal, filed in the Dutch Supreme Court, claims that it was wrong to prevent the sale going ahead.

Control of LaSalle is key to the continuing takeover battle for ABN between Barclays Bank and a consortium led by Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS).

If either deal went through, it would be the biggest in banking history.

Pledge

The RBS consortium, which also includes Spain's Santander and Belgian-Dutch bank Fortis, has said it would be willing to offer $96.4bn for ABN Amro, but this offer is conditional on it gaining control of LaSalle.

Barclays, on the other hand, wants the sale of LaSalle to go through and its friendly $62.6bn deal is dependent on that happening.

A Bank of America spokesman said that the appeal alleged that US laws should govern the sale of LaSalle and not Dutch ones, meaning that Amsterdam's Superior Court should not have intervened.

The Dutch court has also been wrong to rule that ABN shareholders must approve the LaSalle sale, Bank of America said.

The RBS consortium eventually plans to break up ABN if it wins control of the Dutch bank, while Barclays has pledged to shift the enlarged group's headquarters to Amsterdam if its bid is successful.

The sale of ABN Amro was sparked by a campaign by the Children's Investment Fund, which wanted the Dutch bank to break itself up to maximise shareholder value.

Spider-Man 3's success continues

Spider-Man 3 sees Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst in the lead roles
Spider-Man 3 has remained the most popular film in North America, earning six times as much as its nearest rival on its second weekend of release.
The action movie generated $60m (£30.3m) in three days, early estimates suggest, compared to $10m (£5.1m) for British drama 28 Weeks Later.

The film is the sequel to London-based zombie thriller 28 Days Later, and made its debut at number two.

Georgia Rule, starring Jane Fonda and Lindsay Lohan, was new at number three.

NORTH AMERICAN BOX OFFICE

1. Spider-Man 3 ($60.0m)
2. 28 Weeks Later ($10.0m, pictured)
3. Georgia Rule ($5.9m)
4. Disturbia ($4.8m)
5. Delta Farce ($3.5m)
6. Fracture ($2.9m)
7. The Invisible ($2.2m)
8. Hot Fuzz ($1.7m)
9=. Next ($1.6m)
9=. Meet the Robinsons ($1.6m)
Source: Media By Numbers

Surveillance thriller Disturbia, a former chart-topper, fell two places to fourth place, while war parody Delta Farce entered at this week's number five.

Spider-Man 3 suffered a 60% drop from its opening weekend, more than either of its two predecessors.

But film studio Columbia said it was unconcerned about the difference given the movie's record-breaking first weekend, when it earned $151m (£76.1m).

Industry analysts believe it is unlikely that Spider-Man 3 will secure a third week on top in the US and Canada, however, as next weekend sees the release of animated comedy Shrek the Third.

And the third film in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, At World's End, is then due for release the following week.

Google searches web's dark side

Malicious programs are installed by visits to a booby-trapped site
One in 10 web pages scrutinised by search giant Google contained malicious code that could infect a user's PC.
Researchers from the firm surveyed billions of sites, subjecting 4.5 million pages to "in-depth analysis".

About 450,000 were capable of launching so-called "drive-by downloads", sites that install malicious code, such as spyware, without a user's knowledge.

A further 700,000 pages were thought to contain code that could compromise a user's computer, the team report.

To address the problem, the researchers say the company has "started an effort to identify all web pages on the internet that could be malicious".

Phantom sites

Drive-by downloads are an increasingly common way to infect a computer or steal sensitive information.

They usually consist of malicious programs that automatically install when a potential victim visits a booby-trapped website.

"To entice users to install malware, adversaries employ social engineering," wrote Google researcher Niels Provos and his colleagues in a paper titled The Ghost In The Browser.

Finding all the web-based infection vectors is a significant challenge and requires almost complete knowledge of the web

Google researchers
Hi-tech crime


Avoiding attacks

"The user is presented with links that promise access to 'interesting' pages with explicit pornographic content, copyrighted software or media. A common example are sites that display thumbnails to adult videos."

The vast majority exploit vulnerabilities in Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser to install themselves.

Some downloads, such as those that alter bookmarks, install unwanted toolbars or change the start page of a browser, are an annoyance. But increasingly, criminals are using drive-bys to install keyloggers that steal login and password information.

Other pieces of malicious code hijack a computer turning it into a "bot", a remotely controlled PC.

Drive-by downloads represent a shift away from traditional methods of infecting a computer, such as spam and email attachments.

Attack plan

As well as characterising the scale of the problem on the net, the Google study analysed the main methods by which criminals inject malicious code on to innocent web pages.


Spam e-mails are a common way to infect a computer

It found that the code was often contained in those parts of the website not designed or controlled by the website owner, such as banner adverts and widgets.

Widgets are small programs that may, for example, display a calendar on a webpage or a web traffic counter. These are often downloaded from third-party sites.

The rise of web 2.0 and user-generated content gave criminals other channels, or vectors, of attack, it found.

For example, postings in blogs and forums that contain links to images or other content could unwittingly infect a user.

The study also found that gangs were able to hijack web servers, effectively taking over and infecting all of the web pages hosted on the computer.

In a test, the researchers' computer was infected with 50 different pieces of malware by visiting a web page hosted on a hijacked server.

The firm is now in the process of mapping the malware threat.

Google, part of the StopBadware coalition, already warns users if they are about to visit a potentially harmful website, displaying a message that reads "this site may harm your computer" next to the search results.

"Marking pages with a label allows users to avoid exposure to such sites and results in fewer users being infected," the researchers wrote.

However, the task will not be easy, they say.

"Finding all the web-based infection vectors is a significant challenge and requires almost complete knowledge of the web as a whole," they wrote.

What's AJAX

AJAX stands for Asynchronous JavaScript And XML.

AJAX is a type of programming made popular in 2005 by Google (with Google Suggest).

AJAX is not a new programming language, but a new way to use existing standards.

With AJAX you can create better, faster, and more user-friendly web applications.

AJAX is based on JavaScript and HTTP requests.
