From physchair at science.oregonstate.edu Mon Dec 1 09:55:10 2008 From: physchair at science.oregonstate.edu (Physics Chair) Date: Mon Dec 1 09:55:21 2008 Subject: [Physics-grads] [Physics-mmm] Title and abstract for Wednesday Message-ID: <493424FE.50608@science.oregonstate.edu> All: with my apologies, I was too late to post this for the automatic mail on Friday. Here are the title and abstract for Wednesday. Henri Jansen Dec-03(16:00): Weniger 304 SSO Seminar: Zlatko Dimcovic, Department of Physics, OSU Holographic principle for ordinary matter: what is the exponent? It has been theoretically accepted for a few decades that the entropy of a black hole is equal to a quarter of its surface area (in suitable units). And since around that time ideas have been developed about an entropy limit, similarly depending on the surface area, for any physical system. This research has developed into precise statements about a 'holographic principle,' which can crudely be summarized as follows. It claims that there is a bound on the maximal amount of entropy that a physical system can have, and so on the maximal number of degrees of freedom, in a given region of space; and it claims that this bound is determined from the surface of the region. In the most basic model, this limit of the entropy is obtained directly from the surface area. Note that the actual entropy is still calculated as an extensive quantity (depending on the volume), but there would be a limit on the maximal possible amount, dependent on the surface. If this is indeed found to be a physical law, it would be one with far reaching consequences. In this talk I will present work on determining the exponent in the claimed dependency of entropy on the area, in a very basic model. Most of the talk will be concerned with clearly presenting the basic notions and ideas, and the context of my work. In other words, it assumes that the audience has had no previous exposure to this subject. -- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Henri J.F.

If your system does not update automatically, please do this one. Henri -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [DCA-All] Alert - Critical Product Vulnerability - December 17 2008 Microsoft Security Bulletin Release (Out of Band) Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 17:03:53 -0800 From: Shufelt, Cary To: DCA All FYI. Please patch your systems as soon as possible. I will be setting a deadline for this patch on Network Engineering?s WSUS server for Friday, December 19^th at 5:00 pm. * * *WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS ALERT?* This alert is to provide you with an overview of the new security bulletin being released (out-of-band) on December 17, 2008. Microsoft has released security bulletin MS08-078, /Security Update for Internet Explorer (960714)/, to address vulnerabilities in all currently supported versions of Internet Explorer. This security update was released outside of the usual monthly security bulletin release cycle in an effort to protect customers. *Executive Summary * This security update resolves a publicly disclosed vulnerability in Internet Explorer. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted Web page using Internet Explorer. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. The security update addresses the vulnerability by modifying the way Internet Explorer validates data binding parameters and handles the error resulting in the exploitable condition. This security update also addresses the vulnerability first described in /Microsoft Security Advisory 961051/ at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/961051.mspx. *Recommendations* Microsoft recommends customers prepare their systems and networks to apply this security bulletin immediately once released to help ensure that their computers are protected from attempted criminal attacks. For more information about security updates, visit http://www.microsoft.com/protect. New Security Bulletin Technical Details *Identifier* *MS08-078* *Severity Rating* This security update is rated Critical for Internet Explorer 5.01, Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 6 SP1, and Internet Explorer 7. *Impact of Vulnerability* Remote Code Execution *Detection* Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer can detect whether your computer system requires this update. *Affected Software* Internet Explorer 5.01 (Windows 2000), Internet Explorer 6 (Windows 2000), Internet Explorer 6 SP1 (Windows XP and Windows Server 2003), and Internet Explorer 7 (Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008). For information about Internet Explorer 8 (Beta) please see the FAQ section of the bulletin. *Restart Requirement* The update will require a restart only if the required files are being used.
