    GOOGLE DORKING OR LEGAL HACKING: FROM THE CIA COMPROMISE TO YOUR CAMERAS AT HOME, WE ARE NOT AS SAFE AS WE THINK

    Get PDF
    This article addresses the issue of Google Dorking (“Dorking”): an underestimated, overlooked computer-crime technique utilized by hackers, cyberstalkers, and cybercriminals alike. Google Dorking is the specialized use of the Google Search engine which can be used to uncover sensitive data unintentionally exposed to the public online. Dorking can be beneficial and harmless when used by innocent researchers, journalists, and curious users. But it can be incredibly harmful if utilized by malicious actors. Dorking is behind notorious and infamous computer crimes that appear vastly different on the surface, such as a sextortion case involving over a hundred women including Miss Teen USA, an infamous hack of the Bowman Avenue Dam in New York, an intelligence failure that killed over 30 CIA assets and compromised around 70% of CIA operations internationally, and countless cases where legal officials, celebrities, politicians, families, and the average person alike have fallen victim. Anyone with access to the internet can “Google Dork”; the law currently fails to address the legality of this act or recognize it in the justice system. No one is nearly as safe as they think they are

    Monon Boulevard Construction: A Case Study in Trail-Oriented Economic Development—At over 20 years old, the Monon Trail in Carmel has become our beach front property. The trail through downtown Carmel has now reached over 2,000 users per day and is driving redevelopment. This presentation shows how the City is investing 25millionintowideningtheMononTrailandnewgreeninfrastructuretosupportthe25 million into widening the Monon Trail and new green infrastructure to support the 200 million in private investment for new office space, restaurants, and housing. Range Line Road Streetscape: Who Needs Four Lanes When You Have a Bike?—The City of Carmel has focused its growth around redevelopment of older areas that already contain city services, emphasizing urban design and walkability. This session presents the Range Line Road reconstruction project, which has constructed landscaped medians—reducing the number of lanes from five to two and adding an on-street protected bike lane—and replaced traffic signals with roundabouts with raised pedestrian crossings

    NIMBY (not in my backyard) attitudes in the United States have shifted over the past decade, particularly in communities that are embracing trails and active living components to attract residents and businesses. Carmel, Indiana, is one such forward-thinking city. This session examines the environmental, social, and economic impacts of trail-oriented development surrounding the Monon Greenway

    Monon Greenway – Carmel, IN: Before and After

    Get PDF
    We will take a comprehensive look at the transformation of the Monon Greenway from a 12-ft-wide trail, to a pedestrian-prioritized, multi-modal street running through the heart of the City of Carmel. Topics covered include: reviewing key project objectives and evaluating if they were met; analyzing bicycle and pre- and post-pedestrian usage and the benefits of designing to prioritize pedestrian connectivity; the realized benefits of the project due to stakeholder involvement and infrastructure investment; and lessons learned

    Recent N-Atom Containing Compounds from Indo-Pacific Invertebrates

    Get PDF
    A large variety of unique N-atom containing compounds (alkaloids) without terrestrial counterparts, have been isolated from marine invertebrates, mainly sponges and ascidians. Many of these compounds display interesting biological activities. In this report we present studies on nitrogenous compounds, isolated by our group during the last few years, from Indo-Pacific sponges, one ascidian and one gorgonian. The major part of the review deals with metabolites from the Madagascar sponge Fascaplysinopsis sp., namely, four groups of secondary metabolites, the salarins, tulearins, taumycins and tausalarins

    New Cytotoxic Cembranolides from the Soft Coral Lobophytum michaelae

    Get PDF
    Six new cembranolides, michaolides L–Q (1–6), and a known cembranolide, lobomichaolide (7) were isolated from the CH2Cl2 extract of the soft coral Lobophytum michaelae. Their structures were established by extensive spectral analysis. The anti-HCMV (human cytomegalovirus) activity of 1–7 and their cytotoxicity against selected cell lines were evaluated

    Cembranoids from the Dongsha Atoll Soft Coral Lobophytum crassum

    Get PDF
    Chemical investigation of the Dongsha Atoll soft coral Lobophytum crassum has afforded four new cembranoids, crassumols A–C (1–3) and 13-acetoxysarcophytoxide (4). The structures of these isolated compounds were elucidated by extensive NMR and HRESIMS experiments. The cytotoxicity and anti-HCMV (Human cytomegalovirus) activities of 1–4 were evaluated in vitro. Compound 4 exhibited cytotoxicity against A-549 (human lung carcinoma) cell line with an ED50 of 3.6 μg/mL

    New Cembranolides from the Dongsha Atoll Soft Coral Lobophytum durum

    Chemical investigations of the Dongsha Atoll soft coral Lobophytum durum resulted in the isolation of five new cembranolides, durumolides M–Q (1–5). The structures of compounds 1–5 were characterized by the interpretation of extensive spectroscopic analysis. Compound 4 exhibited cytotoxicity against P-388 (mouse lymphocytic leukemia) cell line with an ED50 of 3.8 μg/mL. Moreover, compound 5 showed significant antiviral activity against human cytomegalovirus with an IC50 of 5.2 μg/mL
