Imunity releases Silica, handheld "Pen" tester
Wow, a portable penetration tester the size of a PDA. It does not have a price listed on their site yet, but the capabilities are nice.
Immunity SILICA is a hand-held penetration testing product that leverages Immunity CANVAS to provide a unique testing tool for networks. Currently it supports 802.11 (Wi-Fi) and Bluetooth wireless connections or optionally Ethernet via USB. Its slim, PDA-like profile allows the penetration tester to perform testing while appearing to perform an innocuous behavior.
Example Use Cases:
They also just recently released a new verion of CANVAS Professional – “an automated exploitation system, and a comprehensive, reliable exploit development framework to penetration testers and security professionals worldwide.” They’re up to 6.12 at the time of this post.
CounterStrike Crates – Sweet!
Digg had a link to a guy that was making wooden crates and covering them with the same digital texture/ design as those in CounterStrike (De_Dust is a great example!)
I want some for the yard!
There are some cool projects there! I like the FPS Glasses and The Silver Cell.
Cicadas Everywhere
I’ve seen and heard more Cicadas this year than in a long time. (Originally I said Locusts, which after a bit of researching, was incorrect. They are actually Tibicin.) Their shells are everywhere, all over the tree in our yard. This morning I was out with the kids and saw several hatching out of their shells and I watched for a few before getting my camera. It’s both digusting and amazing to watch these bugs emerge, their new wings still rolled up, and fly away once they’ve managed to get free. I took a few pictures:

Links to Visio Stencils I’ve found on the web…all free, but buried down in their corporate websites. These are direct links:

Google has Movie Trailers
IMO, not quite as pretty as the HD options on Apple.com, but quick and available nonetheless.
