...Al Capone Alphonse Capone is the son of Neapolitan immigrants Gabriel and Teresa Capone. They had nine children. He was their forth, born January 17, 1899, in Brooklyn, New York. This is where he attended Public School 7 from age 5 to 14 until an incident with his 6th grade teacher, he gave her a beating and was then beaten and expelled by his principal, never to return. Beatings were a typical form of punishment for public school in this age and young Al was known to challenge authority. Expelled from school and transplanted to a different neighborhood, Capone met notorious criminals like; Johnny Torrio and Lucky Luciano when he joined two street gangs, the Brooklyn Rippers and the Forty Thieves Juniors. Within a few years he was regularly involved in organized crime. Capone worked at a night club called the Harvard Inn for the crime boss Frankie Yale. One night at the Harvard Inn, Capone insulted a young woman which led to fight. The brother of the woman gave Al a beating and a new nickname “Scarface”. This incident also led to Capone’s first arrest “disorderly conduct”. Al met Mary “Mae” Coughlin, a young Irish woman at a dance in 1918. It must have been a tumultuous, whirlwind of a romance because she gave birth to their son Albert “Sonny” Capone on December 4th, 1918 and then they married on December 30th, 1918. Capone was the prime suspect of two murders and the brutal beating of a rival gang member that led to an extended hospital stay. Frankie Yale knew that the...

...Bug Bounty Information Paper A ‘Bug Bounty’ is a program where private or public entities provide recognition, awards, and compensation in exchange for the responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities, or bugs, in their public or private-facing infrastructures. While conventional penetration testing has a predetermined actor testing a predetermined scope, Bug Bounties generally allow for any actor to attempt to exploit the service without fear of prosecution. If this actor stays within the scope of the Bounty (e.g. not compromising personal data, breaking key infrastructure, etc.), and reports the bug responsibly to the company, without publicly releasing it first, they may receive compensation or awards. Bug Bounties have become increasingly...

...This paper will discuss four common types of distributed computer system failures which are Crash failures also known as operating system failures, Hardware Failures, Omission Failures and Byzantine Failures. Included in the discussion are failures which can also occur in a centralized computer system, and how to isolate and repair two types of failures. Crash failures are normally associated with a server fault in a typical distributed system. Inherently crash failures are interrupt operations of the server and can halt operation for a considerable time (Projects Helper, 2012).Operating system failures are the best examples for this scenario. Operating System or software failures come in many more varieties than hardware failures. Software bugs in distributed systems can be difficult to replicate and, consequently, repair and or debug. Corresponding fault tolerant systems are developed and employed with respect to these affects. An operating system or software failure can also occur in a centralized system such as a data base this is why it is highly recommended to back up a data base using stable mass storage media (Projects Helper, 2012). We have an extensive data base on our server at my work place. The storage back-up is run daily. I cannot imagine the man-hours it would take to re-input even a month’s worth of production data if it were lost due to a failure the system could not recover from. Hardware failures can occur in both distributed and centralized systems. Hardware...

...Bugs Bunny has and continues to be a standing favorite all, his popularity spans generations crossing over form one millennia to the next, he is iconically global and can be viewed in many languages in thousands of homes. True to form the creation of this character has spawned within our culture a love for such a character that he has become not only a welcomed spokes person but an undying legend whose roots can possibly be traced back hundreds of years he is everybody’s hero we laugh and cheer when he is victorious and are shocked and somewhat upset when he “loses.” Warner Bros., released his first cartoon over sixty years ago. Since “There have been over 150 Bugs Bunny cartoons, and all but about twelve are still shown rather frequently on television today. Bugs has had a more diverse and accomplished career than many Hollywood actors ever have, and some of the zaniest and funniest performances ever in film history. This did not happen overnight, by any means. Bugs Bunny's cartoons were directed over the years by such creative geniuses as Tex Avery, Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, Bob Clampett, Robert McKimson, Frank Tashlin, and others, all of whom left their mark in film history with these animated films, and Bugs was only one of the dozens of classic creations these men worked with and created. Also not to be forgotten are the creators of the Warner cartoon soundtrack, Mel Blanc (the voice of Bugs) and musicians Carl Stalling, Milt Franklyn and William Lava” (Hunter). ...

...This was just the beginning of his downfall and it all began on February 14, 1929. First of all, Chicago had split into two rival gangs led by Al Capone and George “Bugs” Moran, by the late 1920’s. Both of these leaders vied for power, prestige, and money (Rosenberg 1). Much of the problems arose after Capone’s former enemy Dion O’ Banion was killed and it started an all-out-war in the city (The St. 1). Moran was soon the new leader. Capone’s hopes of obtaining more territory were diminished and this frustrated him. Al Capone soon began to brainstorm into developing an attempt towards George “Bugs” Moran (Rosenberg 1). Capone’s reputation as a bootlegger would soon change into horror. In order for everything to turn out as planned, Al Capone obtained help from Jack “Machine Gun” McGurn. McGurn was placed in charge to organize an assassination attempt towards “Bugs” Moran. McGurn was said to have survived many attempts so he was perfect for Madueño 2 the job. The plan was to select gunmen outside of the Chicago area. This was to ensure that if there were any survivors, they wouldn’t be able to recognize the killers as part of Capone’s gang. McGurn also acquired a stolen police car and various police uniforms. After all of this was set, Capone sent a Detroit gangster to offer Moran a load of hijacked booze. Bugs agreed to gather the delivery at his gang’s headquarters, a garage at 2122 North Clark Street (Sifakis 289). Capone had a very special “valentine” that he wanted delivered...

...point hardware failures were a common occurrence, but with recent innovations in hardware design and manufacturing these failures tend to be few and far between. Instead, more failures that now occur tend to be network or drive related. Network failures refer to the failure of links within the distributed system network. Processors within a distributed system need to be able to communicate with each other via the network. When a link in this network connection fails, this causes functions to cease running. Application failure occur to the failure of applications that run within the system, and can occur when the application stops working or operates incorrectly. These failures may be caused by a variety of issues, including software bugs. Because there are numerous fail points in...

...Before the written word, the printing press, computers, modems, the Internet and all other communication methods, people passed their beliefs, their history and their values from generation to generation through storytelling and oral tradition. Important aspects of every culture were documented in myths. Creation myths explained how a people came to be, giving them a spiritual/religious connection to a much larger universe filled with the unexplained. In addition, creation myths explained a culture’s origin, history, deities and heroes. Myths gave a culture a clear connection throughout the ages. These myths were passed on through generations to become an integral part of many cultures. Myths helped make order out of chaos, explained things in nature that could not be readily understood. Myths, frequently, expressed ideas and concepts that were common to all human beings. Questions about good and evil, life and death, fear and anxiety, heroes and heroic feats, punishment for breaking cultural values are present in every culture. The “why” of existence crosses cultural, racial and geographic challenges. These topics were the basis for many myths. The myths created to address these topics were frequently variations of the same or similar stories/oral traditions. Collectively, these universal themes or questions are referred to as universal myths. Myths existed before there was art and before the written word. The great mythic themes were known before literature. Myths existed...

...Issue: Should software programmers and business owners be held liable due to the software bugs? Economical Perspective: Remember the times when cell phones are said to be for the business executives’ use only? But nowadays almost everyone owns at least one, even kids. Because of the tight competition in the market, prices of these cell phones, and other technology-based gadgets in that matter, go down every day. Even more, not only does it get smaller, stylish and more compact, its features also got more complex. Cell phones now not only allow us to make a call or send a text message, it does a whole lot more than that. And we should admit it has made things easier, more convenient, and more efficient. Keeping up with the competition, a lot of companies introduce new phone features every day. But along side, more often than not, we also experience some glitches that come with it –Bluetooth is not compatible with other phones, some programs force close at times, and some programs just wouldn’t work. But why do we still buy them? Because we think, with all the helpful features it has, it already serves the value of the price that we paid for. In other words, we’d rather forgive a small glitch in exchange for a more affordable price. Some of the good companies make bug fixes available online anyway. Social Perspective: Softwares have helped us more than just to improve our lifestyles; they have contributed a lot in the knowledge base, and in the field of science...
