Jamison Tilsner of Tilzy.TV talks to Andrea Feczko, host of FastLaneDaily.com
Jennifer Aniston's face adorns the cover of this week's New York Times Magazine. Despite her current remarks in the interview therein about how annoying it is when people take camera phone pictures of her and sell them to feed their family, Ms. Aniston would like to reassure you that she loves images of herself as much as you do. After all, she's done photo shoots with about 8,000 magazines this month, most of which have already folded. Is she a hypocrite? We'll give her a break, and let the author of The Rules give her some helpful advice about dealing with her anger:
Despite posing for Vogue and every other magazine imaginable, Aniston only likes it when the mainstream media profits for her image, as she relates in the NYT interview:
Q: How much do you hate cameras on phones?
A: My favorite move is when people pretend that they’re on the phone and they kind of dial and take the picture at the same time. You hope they’re doing it for themselves — that they're not thinking, I’m going to dine out on you.
Yes, Jen, an image of you is worth about 5.2 meals in this economy. They're just doing what they can to survive.
The New York Post, perhaps miffed that they didn't get their own cover of Aniston scowling, quoted author of The Rules Ellen Fein with some advice for Jen:

"Breaking up is never easy, but it doesn't have to be humiliating...Never mention Brad's or John Mayer's name in public. Also, don't say any thing bad about him ("he's missing a sensitivity chip"). Never talk about Angelina or call her "uncool," even if she was uncool. She does not exist in your world. Never date a man or take a man back who humiliated you publicly or held a press conference to explain your breakup. Go to parties where there are lots of single men and ask everyone you know to set you up. You're going to be 40 soon. You have no time to waste if you want kids."
Yipes.

Okay, we'll ignore the canard that the Democratic wins in Tuesday's election somehow buoy the spirits of terrorists and just focus on the actual, um, "art" in today's Sean Delonas cartoon: the phallic weaponry isn't actually bad (although, as a recurring obsession of Sean's, you'd think he'd be able to draw penises better) but the noses? C'mon, is this Bigoted Cartooning 101? Everyone knows that schnozzes like that go on Jews.

The movie business is a competitive one. No surprise there, but here's the downside: Every film that gets the green light needs to trump the one before it. For example, it can't just be a serial killer; its needs to be the most gruesome serial killer ever known to man. When the stakes keep rising, how do you know when to stop? Enter: The Akula Job.
The Hollywood Reporter reports that Impact Films has picked up the heist action title The Akula Job, penned by relative newcomer Mark Distefano (Friends and Enemies). The film will be about a high stakes jewel heist that -- get ready for this -- has to take place aboard a moving submarine 600 feet underwater. I don't want to jump to conclusions about this one but, for some reason, the fact that the movie will be produced by the same people who brought us DOA and The Hole gives me this sinking feeling in my stomach. I wonder why?
Add to that the fact that there is already a glut of heist movies on the go and the production seems a little unnecessary, not to mention downright silly. No casting announcements have been made as of yet, but really, when a movie is about robbing a submarine, does it really matter?

Virtual desktop company Parallels has launched a desktop calculator that it claimed will make it easier for organisations to work out the cost savings involved in adopting a virtual desktop infrastructure.The company has been hard at work promoting virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) as a technology. This is where traditional PCs are being replaced by thin clients where the operating system and applications are held on servers elsewhere. The company said that although there are some strong financial incentives for businesses to adopt such a strategy, take-up has so far been very slow.However, Russell Blackburn, Parallels' country manager for UK and Ireland said that could be about to change. "The two main barriers to VDI adoption at the moment are user acceptance and the expected ROI for IT departments. The first is easy to address as users will instantly find the experience of a virtual desktop the same as a physical one," he said.The calculator has been designed to show the levels of savings that could be made by moving to a VDI environment. Blackburn said that companies could quickly ascertain the financial advantages. "Our calculator helps address the second barrier by taking into account factors such as hardware, application and power consumption costs to demonstrate a base-level of savings that can be made," he said.If anything, Blackburn said, the calculator underestimates the savings. "It doesn't actually account for the cost of management, which is dramatically reduced with VDI as your physical estate is essentially much smaller. So the calculator is effectively a tool that can be used to understand how Parallels VDI can achieve up to 50 percent savings compared to other technologies. We're confident that the actual savings in terms of time and costs will end-up much higher," he added.

A malicious PDF document that exploits bugs in Adobe's Reader and Acrobat software is on the loose, Symantec said Tuesday, just hours after Adobe patched the programs.
"This mass mailing of exploit files may be an attempt to leverage the exposure window between patch release and widespread adoption of the fix," said Symantec in a warning to customers of its DeepSight threat intelligence network.
The rogue PDF document is attached to spammed e-mail and arrives with a filename like YOUR_BILL.pdf or INVOICE.pdf, said Symantec. It exploits the "mailto:" protocol vulnerability disclosed more than a month ago by U.K.-based researcher Petko Petkov.
Adobe fixed the flaw Monday and released updated 8.1.1 editions of both Reader and Acrobat that plug the hole. Users of older versions of the popular programs must either upgrade to 8.1.1 or apply one of the temporary work-arounds Adobe provided to stifle attacks. On Monday, Adobe did say that it would update Adobe Reader 7.0.9 and Acrobat 7.0.9 "at a later date" but did not set a definitive timeline.
When recipients open the attacking PDF, it launches a Trojan horse dubbed "Pidief.a" that knocks out the Windows firewall and then downloads another piece of malware to the compromised computer. That second piece of attack code is a dedicated downloader that can retrieve files from a remote server and, at the attacker's command, pull them onto the hacked PC.
"The host [server] is live and still currently serving [the downloader] over FTP," said Symantec this morning. The server is well known for hosting malicious software, the warning added.
Although Adobe patched the newest versions of Reader and Acrobat, the vulnerability is ultimately Microsoft's responsibility. The software vendor owned up to that two weeks ago, saying that it would patch common protocol handlers like mailto: in Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
Only users running the Internet Explorer 7 browser on XP or Windows Server 2003 are vulnerable to the PDF exploit.
"[Users] are advised to apply the patches outlined in Adobe Advisory APSB07-18 as soon as possible," Symantec recommended.
