'Spectacular' cyber attack hits French government
…watching this one closely..
The French finance ministry has shut down 10,000 computers after a “spectacular” cyber attack from hackers using Internet addresses in China, officials and reports said on Monday.
The hackers were hunting for documents relating to the Group of 20 (G20) developed and developing nations, which this year is led by France, said Budget Minister Francois Baron, adding that a probe was under way into the attacks.
“We have leads,” Baroin told Europe 1 radio, saying that what he called a “spectacular” attack was “probably the first time” that the French government’s computer system had been hit on this scale.

It's really not news anymore, but oil jumped in price again
…and if there was any economic recovery, say goodnight Irene if oil keeps rising.
I think it was Gorilla Monsoon from the old 80’s WWF should perfected the saying ‘goodnight Irene.’
I wonder if Irene ever slept, really.. And if she still can knowing she will have to spend her entire savings by Memorial Day just to fill up her car was gas?

Snowzilla? This is the name for it?
Either way, news agencies are accounting for the surprise snow that blanketed much of the Northeast..
I never liked the strange names we give weather events. Although I due sometimes wish major Nor’Easters would get named, just as hurricanes do..

Just read an urgent weather bulletin from the National Weather Service about heavy snow and ice beginning tonight. It’s been raining heavy all day .. a few folks said “at least it’s not snow.”
Now it will be…
Jinx.
Maybe I should start believing myself more often: On February 27, Accuweather reported and this website re-linked a possibility that this weekend’s rain would turn to snow.. I suppose that turned out to be true after all..
