(CBS News) UNITED NATIONS – Beyonce was breathtaking. No other way to describe the stunning performance at the General Assembly Hall of United Nations Headquarters in New York on Friday night, 온라인카지노 when she sang “I Was Here” in honor of humanitarian aid workers killed in the line of duty around the world to be broadcast on August 19th. “She was fantastic,” U.K. Ambassador to the U.N., Sir Mark Lyall Grant, said after the performance, which he attended with his daughter. “World Humanitarian Day is a chance to pay tribute to the commitment and courage of those who work in some of the world’s most dangerous places,” the ambassador told CBS News, “It’s fantastic that a world-acclaimed artist like Beyonce is helping to raise awareness for this important cause — she’s reminding us that we can all play a part in relieving suffering around the world.” It was on the same platform where Col.

(CBS/AP) LONDON – Computer security firm Kaspersky says it has discovered a new batch of malicious software linked to the infrastructure-wrecking Stuxnet virus. In a statement Thursday the Moscow-based company said it had found a virus dubbed “Gauss” which it said was aimed at stealing financial information from its mainly Middle Eastern victims. Kaspersky Lab ZAO said that the newly-discovered virus shared similarities in terms of structure and 황금성 다운로드 operation with Flame, a program aimed at vacuuming information from target computers. Flame in turn shared similarities with Stuxnet, a program experts believe was designed to sabotage Iran’s disputed nuclear program. Both pieces of malicious software have been attributed to the U.S. and Israeli governments. Kaspersky’s statement said that all three viruses likely came from the same “factory” or “factories.” In a “60 Minutes” broadcast in March, correspondent Steve Kroft reported that Stuxnet was first detected and isolated by a tiny company in Belarus after one of its clients in Iran complained about a software glitch in June of 2010.
