BloggeRhythms 9/27/2010

I didn't see too much of Gang Green last night because I fell asleep before the first quarter ended. But, I somehow awoke for the end of the game. And having watched them since their inception, I've got to say, if nothing else they're the most consistent team I've ever seen.

Because, no matter who they're playing or where, they never put games away early. It seems they always let their opponents have a chance to win at the end, regardless. And last night was no exception. Miami had plenty of time to come back and tie, or even win the game flat out, in regulation.

So maybe I proved a point to myself last night -that I really don't need to watch the first ninety-six percent of any Jet games in the future, just the last two minutes. Because that's what it always seems to come down to for that team. Which means that, maybe, they're in the wrong league. Perhaps they should just move their franchise over to the NBA, New York hasn't had a team for years and years.

Then there was this item in the news. There's a powerful computer code called Stuxnet attacking industrial facilities around the world, mainly in Iran. Top security analysts think it was probably created by experts working for a country or a well-funded private group.

The code was designed to go after several "high-value targets," according to Symantec Corp., but they and government experts say there's no proof it was developed to target nuclear plants in Iran, despite recent speculation from some researchers. Creation likely required a team of five to ten highly educated and well-funded hackers, but government experts and outside analysts say they haven't been able to determine who developed it or why.

Now, let's all sit back a minute and think. What do we know so far? Let's see. Well, we know the code attacks industrial facilities, such as those that manufacture missles and rockets. We also know that it took a few brilliant people to create and implement the code. Beyond that, most of the targets have been in Iran. Lastly, there's not a trace of who could possibly be behind the scheme, but it cost megabucks to fund.

So, let's do some theorizing and see if we can figure this out. First, who'd benefit most from this plan? Probably some nation that senses some kind of threat from the Iranians. I guess that leaves out Kenya and Sri Lanka. How about Luxembourg? So, one by one we can around the globe and try to guess who it might be. But, we'll never find the answer. Because I think Israelis are a lot like our president. When it comes to their own survival, they'll never disclose where anything or anyone was really born.

That's it for today folks.

Adios
