mask.of.sanity writes: "An Italian security researcher has disclosed a laundry list of unpatched vulnerabilities and detailed proof-of-concept exploits that allow hackers to completely compromise major industrial control systems.

The attacks against six SCADA systems including one manufactured by US giant Rockwell Automation. The researcher published step-by-step exploits that allowed attackers to execute full remote compromises and denial of service attacks.

Auriemma appeared unrepentant for the disclosures in a post on his website."

Although Nokia will not immediatly abandon Symbian powered phones and MeeGo is said to be part of a "longer-term market exploration", Alberto Torres, who has led the development of MeeGo, is leaving the company. Shares in Nokia fell by more than 10% in early trading in Helsinki.

videoBuff writes: Nokia, current cell phone market leader whose dominance is crumbling, signs up to use Microsoft Windows 7, whose market share is only 2%. Nokia will junk its Symbian and Linux efforts. Guess who made this "brilliant" decision? Mr. Stephen Elop, former Microsoft executive, who joined Nokia as CEO on Sep 2010. Goodbye Nokia, you just made yourself irrelevant.

An anonymous reader writes: Nokia and Microsoft Announce Plans for a Broad Strategic Partnership to Build a New Global Mobile Ecosystem. Does this mean that Phone 7 is about to invade the Nokia ecosystem? Will this partnership sink the Iphone and Android. Hold on to your hats two of the largest megacorps are going to bed with each other and the resulting child could be a very a serious competitor to the real industry if exchange functions on the resulting product are superior to Rims integration.

Submission + - The mission to regenerate Doctor Who in color (wired.co.uk)

Submitted by Lanxon on Tuesday January 04, 2011 @08:18AM

Lanxon writes: In 1967, the BBC set about junking its Doctor Who archive: a moment sci-fi fans wish they could travel back in time to prevent. There are 108 vintage episodes missing, but since 1978 a number have been rediscovered as 16mm black-and-white films. The BBC shot many of these series in color, but made monochrome copies for countries such as Australia, where many TV companies were still broadcasting in greyscale. The reels had sat in archives since. Now, the Doctor Who Restoration Team, an independent group contracted by the BBC, is using a new technique to regenerate The Doctor in color.
