It's hard to believe it's been nearly eight years since the first Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/batman-begins,from the Dark Night to now, the final Batman saga conclusion is set to be released in 2012. The film looks intense, hopefully it lives up to par. There is some doubt about the web about Christian Bale's dialogue audio, hopefully it pans out in post (usually what people may fear can be corrected by a good voice over lip sync). More to come.
Movie credits: Director: Christopher Nolan Status: Post-production
Desert West Media story Facebook Hack - UPDATE 2 11-20-11 Monday, 14 November 2011 12:52 | Last Updated on Sunday, 20 November 2011 16:39 |  Written by Aaron Conaway |  | 
Interesting enough, Facebook now posted warnings widespread that people can only add friends if they know them personally (although facebook suggests people to you and more).
When I signed into facebook (and not having sent any friend requests for sometime) I received a warning that I had tried to add friends I didn't know, and shouldn't and had to confirm twice this rule or I would not be allowed to add friends. Wow. See below. Click to enlarge.
Facebook acknowledged it was hacked! Well, they softened it up a bit. MSN has a report and a response as of 6 HOURS AGO. www.slashgear.com Facebook comments on Porn and Violence Spam attacks Facebook did not specifically address the images but they did provide this official statement:
Facebook users are encouraged to report abusive content via the drop-down menu that appears next to each post on profile walls and Newsfeed.
Facebook in a lot of ways (depending on whom you follow or share with in it) can become quite tedious. You are your own Moderator. From removing unwanted posts, offensive material, some people argue freedom of speech therefore anything goes. Some things are just rude, vulgar, uncalled for, lots of "posting-crazies" as I'd like to call them that warrant a facebook restraining order. I logged in to facebook yesterday, I have about 800 friends currently, some are from abroad, but usually I don't share with just anybody unless I make sure they aren't a nut case (e.g. extremists who have computers and don't get out much). Last night when I logged in, was a bit surprised to find gruesome and real graphic images and photos of violence being shared, thousands of comments on them, they were real, turns out a lot of facebook accounts have been hacked (according to what I've made of it) by a Muslim (and now a Chinese) hacking group, they are showing pictures of dead kids, images of hate, violence and so forth. I tried to report and block some of these images when I saw them to help expedite the things along, I was told by facebook that spam reporting was OVERLOADED and sorry for the inconvenience. Last resort? Hide the images until you refresh the page, wham, they're back up again. I logged into facebook today (11-14-11), to find the same but worse, now full frontal pornography being shared all over the place. IMHO, Facebook makes it too difficult to stop things like this, instead, I'm not signing in for a while, I researched the issues online, found no reports of this current dilemma being acknowledged by anybody (including facebook). This looks like a wide spread attack. I know some accounts get hacked occasionally but never like this. This is very wide scale. Interesting enough if you think you've been hacked or your account has been "broken into" facebook has a link to try and "re-secure" it. Here's where you go for that: https://www.facebook.com/checkpoint/checkpointme?f=113194692112762
By the way, notice the link is HTTPS not HTTP, most of facebook is HTTP (even if you login under HTTPS) more than likely, so they have plausible deniability. Additionally, there was a "promise" (or threat) by several hacking groups that they were going to hack and or attack facebook on November 5th, 2011 (see here). Anyways, facebook has an average of 600,000, YES, SIX-HUNDRED-THOUSAND facebook are accounts hacked daily!!! I suggest would being more careful with where you login, who sees you, whos computer you do it from, be weary of using free internet and your local coffee house (from gateways being installed to steal your info, etc.) and use HTTPS protocol whenever possible. Last but not least, change your passwords often.

Today, the Apple iphone 4S was unveiled. Huh? You mean the iPhone 5? No. iPhone 4S. What's with the "S"? Maybe it means iPhone "sexier" version? MOST IMPORTANTLY (according to Apple), can access and tap into AT&T's REAL 4G network! Wait! What? What was I using with everything else? Non really 4G, just the 4G in a marketing sense! Okay, so now you can! The iphone 4S will run on AT&T’s HSPA+ network, which has download speeds up to 14.4 Mbps and uploads reaching 5.8 Mbps (according to Apple). Okay, so why buy it? What's new? What's so special about it? Faster processing power than the last. This one shimmers a bit more. And it has a new feature, voice-recognition so you can tell it what to do and a robotic female voice replies and responds to you. Take those things away, it's an iphone 4. Nuf said.
