“Rise of the Planet of the Apes” review: Reboot is thrilling

(CBS) Among the crop of summer blockbusters, Rupert Wyatt’s “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” ranks as one of the more entertaining and – probably – the most thought-provoking of the heavy hitters. Set in present-day San Francisco, the film is an original telling that serves as a precursor to 1968’s  “Planet of the Apes,” starring Charlton Heston and Roddy McDowall. Will (James Franco) is a scientist on the brink of finding a cure for Alzheimers. Using chimpanzees as guinea pigs, he thinks he has discovered a cure for the irreversible disease when one of the chimps starts to display unparalleled growth in intelligence after using his miracle drug, ALZ 112, in clinical trials.

Both pieces of malicious software have been attributed to the U.S

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 포커 용어 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. Within a month, a copy of the computer bug was being analyzed within a tight knit community of computer security experts, and it appeared to be the first salvo in a new era of warfare. In June, a new virus called “Flame”, was unleashed. It was a massive, data-slurping cyberweapon circulating in the Middle East, and computers in Iran...
