Jon Favreau, the guy that made Tony Stark every techie guys’ idol, is already looking into Iron Man 3, though he still wasn’t clear what it will be like after Thor (2011), Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), and The Avengers (2012). Still, he insisted on The Mandarin being the bad guy in the next show. The Mandarin is supposed to be a Fu-Manchu Asian, who possesses ten magical rings, God knows what he can do with those.

Not only that, Director Jon had already dropped some “Easter eggs” in the last two films. In the first Iron Man, the terrorist organization who bought a lot of Stark Industry toys, were parts of the “Ten Rings”, well whatever that means. Also, if you would even notice, Ali Khan (*the guy who hands over Vanko the forged ID and travel documents in Moscow) was credited as “10 Rings Gangster” in Iron Man 2.

Director Jon is currently filming Cowboys and Aliens, which will hit screens next summer, and this will allow the Marvel Universe mood to descend down awhile before swallowing a third installment of Iron Man. However, expect some alterations from the original comic, as Director Jon has admitted that it is required, when being interviewed by MTV. Read more…

Researchers are urging better security for our deep-sea cables, as they claim it to be very vulnerable to threads, be it natural disasters or human factor accidents.

“As global Internet and communication links 99 per cent relies on undersea cables instead of satellite, our global economics might get choked all of a sudden if it get sabotaged” – says Alan Mauldin, an analyst at Telegeography Research.

Karl Rauscher, for Bell Labs engineer who compiled the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’ (IEEE) publicly request for better security towards submarine cables, at the Worldwide Cybersecurity Summit in Dallas, Texas, last week.

The report stated that many of the cables passing through choke points, such as the Strait of Malacca near Singapore, the Luzon Strait between Taiwan and the Philippines, and the Suez Canal, are extremely vulnerable. Damage to the cables at these points could lead to phone networks becoming jammed and internet traffic slowing to a crawl, which means economy might crawl leading to many issues.

Examples would be incidents like the Howard Street tunnel running beneath downtown Baltimore, where a freight train derailed and spilled 20,000 liters of hydrochloric acid, thus destroying undersea fibre-optic cables. Other incidents like cables getting caught in fishing nets, and those that got damaged by ships’ anchors.

The report not only urge for tighter security on submarine fibre-optic cables, but also calls for new cables built on alternative routes to provide back-up to vulnerable points in the gigantic network.
