NEW YORK - The publisher of the Natiοnal Enquirer tabloid newspaper has admitted it paid hush mοney to a fοrmer Playbοy magazine mοdel to prevent her frοm gοing public ahead of the 2016 electiοn with claims that she had an affair with President Dοnald Trump.
Federal prοsecutοrs in New Yοrk said οn Wednesday that American Media Inc [AMRCM.UL], as part of a deal to cοoperate with prοsecutοrs and avoid charges, admitted it made a $150,000 payment to Karen McDougal "in cοncert" with Trump's presidential campaign.
AMI said Chief Executive David Pecker met with Trump's fοrmer persοnal lawyer Michael Cohen and at least οne other member of the campaign in August 2015 and offered to help with negative stοries abοut Trump's relatiοnships with women by buying the rights to those stοries, accοrding to a document made public by prοsecutοrs.
AMI's admissiοn may suppοrt statements made by Cohen, who was sentenced οn Wednesday to three years in prisοn fοr his rοle in the payments, that they were made to influence the electiοn in violatiοn of campaign finance law, legal experts said.
Federal law requires that the cοntributiοn of "anything of value" to a campaign must be disclosed, and an individual dοnatiοn cannοt exceed $2,700.
Trump and his lawyers have argued the payments were a persοnal matter unrelated to the electiοn.
The charges οn which Cohen was sentenced include campaign finance law violatiοns relating to his negοtiatiοn of payments to McDougal and anοther woman, adult film star Stοrmy Daniels. Cohen has said bοth payments were directed by Trump.
A spοkesman fοr AMI declined to cοmment.
Rudy Giuliani, the president's lawyer, stuck to Trump's pοsitiοn οn Wednesday, asserting to Reuters that the president never reimbursed AMI fοr its payment to McDougal.
Legal experts said the deal with AMI strengthened prοsecutοrs' pοsitiοn in any pοtential case against Trump, however.
Jens Ohlin, a prοfessοr at Cοrnell Law School, said the details abοut AMI's intentiοns undermined Trump's claim.
A New Yοrk-based appellate lawyer, Mark Zauderer, said the deal with AMI was "anοther arrοw in the prοsecutοrs' quiver".

ChristianaCare fires 150 employees for not complying with COVID-19 vaccine mandate
Meredith Newman
Editor's note: An updated version of this story clarifies the number of full-time equivalents that make up the terminated number of ChristianaCare workers.
ChristianaCare has fired 150 employees for not complying with its COVID-19 vaccine requirement, the health system announced Monday.
Dr. Janice Nevin, CEO of ChristianaCare, wrote in a blog post for the hospital's website that the 150 people equated to roughly 90 full-time positions. Many of the terminated workers were "part-time or casual employees," according to a hospital spokeswoman.
Of the 90 full-time equivalents, 48 were jobs involving patient care and less than a dozen related to nursing.
ChristianaCare, which is the largest private employer in Delaware, employs more than 14,000 people. In July, it announced that all employees would be required to receive the COVID-19 vaccine or be fired if they did not meet the requirements for an exemption.
About 200 employees were given religious or medical accommodations, Nevin said. These people will be required to undergo regular COVID-19 testing in addition to wearing a mask at work.
WATCHDOG REPORTING:Delaware nurses say they are in a crisis. Many fear it will only get worse.
Delaware Online/The News Journal published an article on Sept. 14, detailing how nurses felt they were in crisis due to understaffing as the pandemic reached its 18th month.
These health care workers, primarily at Bayhealth and ChristianaCare, said nurses are struggling due to staffing issues, which are ultimately affecting patient care.
Many nurses are going to work for other hospitals, where health systems are offering better pay and significant signing bonuses. Or, nurses are leaving the profession due to burnout and mental health struggles.
Nevin wrote in her blog post that the health system has hired more than 200 people in the last month, about 160 are for positions that "provide direct patient care."
The announcement of ChristianaCare's vaccine mandate resulted in an August rally that drew hundreds of people. It was unclear at the time how many in attendance were current employees.

Are organizations treating cyber risk as a quantifiable business risk?
Guest BlogsNews
By Express Computer Last updated Sep 30, 2022
By Shankar Bhaskaran, Managing Director – India, MetricStream
Businesses across industries today have become digitized not just as an operational enhancement but as an inevitable requirement. However, the spike in the number of digital endpoints has also meant an uptick in the level of cyber risk that organizations must deal with.
Shankar Bhaskaran
This leads to the question, are organizations still looking at cybersecurity as a technology risk that can be handled by the IT department alone? It's high time the thought process changes because cybersecurity is now a leading business risk thanks to the changing workplace dynamics and the interconnected nature of advanced IT infrastructures.
Cyberattacks, data breaches, and financial losses are not just affecting IT systems but are known to compromise the entire organization's ability to operate normally, affecting overall business continuity.
In June, the Swiss airspace was closed to traffic for security reasons after a computer
failure with its air traffic control service. Similarly in India, a major airline was forced to cancel several flights after a major ransomware attack. Other airline companies were also targeted. This caused delays, cancellations, and business disruptions.
These incidents are clear examples of how cyber attacks today can impact businesses, a fact supported by studies too. A 2021 Gartner Board of Directors Survey has said that 88% of boards now view cybersecurity as a business risk—up by 30% since 2017. Ultimately, a cyber breach can lead to financial losses, reputational damage, legal issues, regulatory fines, and even business closures.
It can also affect the supply chain, clients, and even partner ecosystems.
Key reasons why cyber risk is now a business risk
There are a host of reasons why cyber risk is now largely being viewed as a business risk. Some of these reasons are:
Third-party risks: At a time when third parties are prevalent throughout an organization's supply chain, it tops the list of cyber risks. The 2022 Forbes CyberRisk Alliance survey that surveyed 301 IT and cybersecurity decision makers and influencers who worked with outside vendors, found that 95% of organizations partner with IT software, platform, or service providers. The findings of another study, the Third-Party Risk: A Turbulent Outlook Survey Report 2022 also highlight an accelerated threat from the extended IT vendors and third parties.
As many as 60% of respondents said they experienced an IT security incident in the past two years due to a third-party partner with access privileges.
Critical infrastructure vulnerabilities: Today, critical infrastructure within organizations is becoming more complex and reliant on networks of connected devices. Expectedly, the vulnerability of this infrastructure to cyber-attacks and technical failures is a huge concern. Software is no more internally written code like in older times but has moved to an amalgamation of components including custom code, open-source software, third-party proprietary libraries, and external APIs.
This has amplified the scope of cyber risk. The Log4j vulnerability, discovered in December 2021, which resulted in 100 new hacking attempts every minute, is a major example.
Rise in cyberattacks and ransomware: Business disruption as a result of cyberattacks and ransomware attacks is expensive on many levels. The downtime, expenses, and reputational costs can range from hundreds of thousands of dollars even leading to shutting a business down. The World Economic Forum has pointed out that cyberattacks were the No. 5 rated risk in 2020 and have become the new norm across both the public and private sectors, expected to double by 2025.
Cloud security risks: Cloud usage has risen significantly over the last few years, especially in the aftermath of the pandemic. However, if cloud data is compromised, companies are at a huge risk of loss with revenue, reputation, and business continuity being table stakes. As per an IBM study, the average cost of a data breach is approximately $8.64 million, and it takes almost 280 days for a company to detect, remediate, and recover. Besides, there are high chances that many companies may not even survive a seminal breach.
How can organizations deal with an expanding risk landscape?
Every business must take steps to protect and prepare for attacks. Understanding the risks
connected to cyber-attacks can help organizations plan the best way to deal with the risks. The blueprint to approach risk should be a multi-pronged approach with elements of response, recovery, and prevention in the future. Business leaders need a comprehensive risk-management platform that can give them an overarching and unified view of risk. An AI-enabled Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platform that offers an integrated approach to GRC is the key, to bringing everything together.
When powered by AI, Connected GRC software provides an overarching framework for companies to work within—from compliance to IT security, legal functions, insights, and audits, AI creates a powerful mechanism for companies to best protect themselves.
These integrated programs help with collaboration, sharp insights and intelligence gained both from machine learning and human observations. AI-based risk quantification platforms also enable a tighter alignment with Boards and executives. CXOs can better understand how much their business may be exposed to cyber risks and what is at stake in rupee or dollar value. CISOs can be accurate about the impact of cyber risks like data breaches, identity theft, and infrastructure downtime.
Utilizing AI, decision makers can see the bigger picture, connecting the dots through large data sets that were previously overwhelming to manage. In general, building a culture of security should be a prime focus for every organization. While empowering employees to play a key role in protecting the organization is one way, another important one is to invest in robust systems that can leverage actionable business intelligence to make data-driven decisions toward cyber resilience.
This can be made possible only if organizations start looking at cyber risk not in isolation, but in a holistic way as a measurable business risk that can
be predicted and prevented.

Don't get me wrong…
May 2, 2011 / bikinginla / 10 comments
Seriously, I'm glad Osama bin Laden is dead.
Even though this may be the first time the death of another human being has made me truly and unapologetically happy.
But let's keep things in perspective.
Just under 3,000 people died on 9/11/2001.
That same year, over 14 times that many people died in traffic collisions; 42,109 to be exact.
And in the years that followed, from 2001 to 2009, 369,629 people died on American streets. Roughly 100 times the total number of deaths that can be attributed to al Qaeda in all the attacks before and after 9/11.
Bin Laden's actions led to wars, a massive world-wide man hunt, draconian security procedures and a near-constant state of fear, here and around the world.
Yet hundreds of millions of people in the U.S. get behind the wheel every day without a moment's thought. And almost nothing is done to ensure that they return home safely.
Based on the latest statistics, 96 people will die on American streets today. They could be your neighbors, your co-workers, your family, your friends. They could be total strangers.
It could be you.
Or me.
The attacks on 9/11 were devastating. I'm happy that bin Laden has finally been brought to justice. And I thank the men and women who sacrificed, and in some cases gave their lives, to make this possible.
But now maybe we can refocus on the carnage that takes place on our roads every day.
96 today.
672 this week.
2976 this month. Just one less than the number of victims killed on 9/11.
This month. And every month.
That's the terror we need to fight now.
Category: Bicycle Safety / Tags: Osama bin Laden, traffic fatalities
Digital Dame says:
I don't see OBL's death so much as justice as simply putting an end to his reign, while fully realizing there are no doubt thousands of others eager to take up where he left off and carry on in his stead. But like you, I have no compunction about being glad he's gone.
That aside, those statistics are sobering.
Reactions » Cyclelicious says:
[…] In LA looks at the numbers. We have a 9/11 every single month in the United States from traffic […]
la rider says:
Those stats don't even include the lives 'saved' by modern medicine. There are many people that are 'living', but in pain throughout their lives.
Chewie says:
We definitely need a pro-life transportation system.
I'm certainly not grieving the death of Bin Laden, but I'm kind of disturbed at how people can celebrate death, even the death of a mass murderer.
I think it goes to show you how violence on all sides slowly tears away pieces of our humanity. Our wars will continue, and just like in acts of terrorism, it will be civilians who have no real connection to the fight that will pay the highest price.
The Trickster says:
It'd be interesting looking at the costs of those two things:
Both as a pure $ figure, and as a 'cost per death' (I know its a little macabre). My bet is the 'war on terrorism' will have cost in the magnitude of hundreds if not thousands of times more money than sorting out something that kills far more people.
erik Mar says:
How is killing someone the same as "bringing him to justice"? What happened to due process and criminal trials? After all, there's no direct evidence linking him to the crime of 9/11, in spite of his admission of guilt. Were the same standard of evidence used here applied to other criminal cases, our executioners would be working overtime.
Or, to turn it around, let's apply the same standard of evidence to the _other_ 9/11, namely the one from 1973, where there's plenty of hard documentation that demonstrates collusion at the highest levels of the CIA and State Department in a coup that led directly to the torture and deaths of thousands more than in "our" 9/11. Shouldn't we then see bloodlust celebrations in the streets and on the air from the multitudes once Kissinger et. al are "brought to justice"? if not, why not?
Opus the Poet says:
You mean aside from the several videos of bin Laden claiming credit for the plans and financing of the operation, and praising the operatives that carried it out?
bikinginla says:
Thank you. I've been trying very hard not to say that.
Michael Cahn says:
Thanks for putting this is perspective. Your own voice as part of our public opinion will help to highlight the neglected killing fields of our roads, and put the others in perspective.
Indeed, this imbalance between numbers of victims and column inches written is a serious disease in our media landscape. I sometimes felt your own heightened and consistent interest in the Blood On The Bike Lane would be morbid or fatalistic or one-sided, but in the light of this bigger picture is now seems more defensible. Ride on, to a place where the street no longer resembles a battlefield, on which enemies are easily identified by their metallic uniform, to a street where there is a bit more encounter rather than conflict.
Thank you, my friend. Trust me, i would much rather write about other things.

3.5 Anti-Semitic Overtones
Since the mid- to late 1970s and parallel to the previously mentioned tilt to the right as well as the initial contact with the right-wing extremist American Liberty Lobby, "anti-Zionist" slogans have been a continuous component of the LO hack writing. Several formulations on the Nazi annihilation of the Jews border on those found in right-extreme, revisionist agitation. 39 Noteworthy in this context is the article "The Zionist Holocaust Today" authored by Zepp-LaRouche on the occasion of the film "Holocaust." 40 Similar to the recent film "Schindler's List", at that time "Holocaust" served the right-wing scene as a peg for propaganda campaigns and coups. In this context and time, Zepp-Larouche claimed in her tract that "Zionist-British circles" were kindling a "completely artificial and controlled faux-debate" with this film, and moreover, were themselves just at the point of "toppling the world into a holocaust, next to which the crimes of the Nazis appear to be a charity function." 41
Moreover, LO writings frequently refer to the historic "classic" of the anti-Semitic conspiracy myth, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, as a trustworthy document. The statements made in The Protocols more or less simply need to be refined, so that one doesn't speak "generally" of a Jewish conspiracy, but limits this to circles such as the Jewish B'nai B'rith. 42 The campaign waged with long-standing continuity against the Jewish "Freemason" organization B'nai B'rith and its Anti-Defamation League is, however, carried out with an insistency that can only be described as obsessive. This section of the American Jewish community has become the central object of hatred for the LO, for, among other things its uncompromising reporting and support for investigating agencies in connection with criminal proceedings against the LO. 43 In addition, outbursts against the state of Israel ("British zombie-state", "criminal state" that is distinguished by "Nazi-like bestiality" etc.) also belong to the regularly used speech patterns, particularly those meant for internal consumption. 44
One cannot, however, speak here of the stringent anti-Semitic worldview of those who provided the ideological impetus of the NSDAP and the neo-Nazi groups of the postwar period. The LO's anti-Semitism is far closer to one of the numerous variants of the anti-Freemason anti-Semitic conspiracy myth. 45 The outbursts here are not directed towards "Everyjew" per se, but towards a specific group of "bad Jews" – the "Jew, who is not really a Jew", the "Babylonian Jews", "the Satanic version of the Talmud" 46 – on whom, however, the excommunicative spotlight of the LaRouche inquisition falls even harder. We see here, therefore, some ingredients from the ideological stew of the turn of the twentieth century and early 1920s, woven into LaRouche's previously discussed anti-British conspiracy myth.
39. For citations, see Boland (fn.7), pp. 6-8. Formulations such as "Fascist disease called Zionism" were common well into the 1990s.
40. Neue Solidarität from 25 January 1979.
41. Among other statements they wrote: "The Zionist-British circles, which have produced and propagated the film "Holocaust" and whose representatives in the Federal Republic have now provoked a completely artificial and controlled faux-debate around this film, are today at the point of toppling the world into a holocaust next to which the crimes of the Nazis appear to be a charity function. The Zionist-British policy deliberately risks toppling the world into a nuclear holocaust, and precisely because of this, there is not the slightest difference between the morality of the Zionists and that of the worst Nazis." Further citations in the book by Fromm/Kernbach (fn.1), p. 131.
42. Compare Müller/Lorscheid, (footnote 6), pp. 115-116 as well as King, (footnote 2), pp. 38-46.
43. Above all, outbursts against the ADL belong to the basic vocabulary of internal pronouncements by Larouche: Circles allied with the ADL are the powerbrokers behind the assassinations of Indira and Rajiv Gandhi; the ADL is "one of the leading pro-drug lobby organizations in the world." Supporters of the ADL are "the lowest scum on this planet" (May 22, 1991); the authors of the murderous attack on Jürgen Ponto are "the British. Those were our enemies. Those were friends of the ADL. Bronfman's friends" (April 3, 1991); Bronfman and Galinski are "butchers and criminals, enemies of mankind" (September 19, 1990). In 1992, the LO in the USA came out with a special pamphlet with the title "The Ugly Truth about the ADL", where the ADL was, among other things, denigrated as: "a branch of the British intelligence and secret societies"; "closer to the racist Ku Klux Klan than to Judaism"; "closer to the Medellin cocaine cartel than to any civil rights group" or "at the center of the corruption of our most valuable institutions: the schools, the courts and elected representatives of the people."
44. In one place, LaRouche claimed in a "campaign statement" from January 10, 1991, that Israel was heavily involved in the "international drug trade from Medellin to the far East", even if in addition some legal diamonds and "who knows, perhaps also some used foreskins" were also exported. Israel is characterized by the adoption of "evil as such" (February 10, 1991).
45. See Armin Pfahl-Traughber, Der antisemitisch-antifreimaurerische Verschwörungsmythos in der Weimarer Republik und dem NS-Staat (The Anti-Semitic-Anti-Freemason Conspiracy Myth in the Weimar Republic and the Nazi State), Wien 1993.
46. For example, LaRouche in an internal paper, "On Methodology in Intelligence Work", from September 11, 1990. This variant of "Babylonian Jews" is identical with the "Pantheon of the Mother of Satan, Ishtar and her son, Baal, Beelzebub, etc." or the type of "oligarchs practicing extortion."

Approaching Uncertainty
5 cutting-edge startup trends to look out for in 2022
Posted by Tasnim Ahmed
Since the advent of COVID-19, the world that existed prior to 2019 has undergone a sea change in terms of individual choices, ways of living, jobs, businesses, recreation and beyond.
Priorities have changed for most people and businesses alike. Some things once deemed indispensable just don't hold any water at present. Let's take, for example, the Great Resignation wave that has gripped businesses and workers alike. People have new expectations from employers, and companies are trying to adapt.
One thing is for certain — the age of the entrepreneur is here. Through September 2021, a record 1.4 million people filed for a new business license to launch their own venture. Analysts say the culture of YOLO, or "you only live once," helps explain why people are making decisions they wouldn't have considered prior to the pandemic.
Even amid this time of uncertainty, a few key percolating trends are piquing interest from venture capitalists. Here we look at five such trends for 2022.
1. Connecting the virtual and real world
In the last two years, the business world has largely shifted online for connecting with other people. But as large in-person events return, they will likely be accompanied by a smaller virtual component, or vice versa. This fusion of business processes promises flexibility and convenience. Bizzabo, a platform to plan and run virtual and in-person conferences, is an example of a company in this space.
2. Environmental, social and governance initiatives
The year will bring renewed interest in the ESG impact of businesses, analysts say. Not only will ESG missives be monitored by the public, but more employees nowadays seek to align themselves with companies that prioritize sustainability. On the other hand, naysayers caution that ESG has become a trendy buzzword and that a day of reckoning could be ahead.
Talk to us about how our outsourced business services can help your firm in making informed decisions.
3. Blockchain/crypto/no-code technology
Crypto mania shows no signs of slowing down. Now, even U.S. lawmakers and sovereign nations are watching crypto closely. The application of blockchain, which is a database of all crypto transactions, is among the most-discussed disruptive technologies. Blockchain is expected to continue to foster innovation in avenues where authenticity and proof are required, making it even more useful in fields such as banking, high-value transactions, certification, insurance and beyond. The increased accessibility of blockchain combined with no-code technology is set to give traditional businesses a run for their money in the race to be lean and efficient.
Real estate is poised for huge growth in 2022 as the technology-averse sector begins to embrace tech. Industry experts believe that tech-forward, innovative real estate companies are positioned to thrive in coming years, with the ones that shun change projected to fall behind.
5. Reverse globalization
With the advent of the pandemic and subsequent supply chain bottlenecks, one thing is undeniable: the need for self-sufficiency has soared. Finishing a product and putting it out in the market on time has taken on a new urgency for businesses. This has led many companies to advocate that supporting firms and vendors move closer to them; in other words, they are calling for a localization of supply chains in 2022.
Escalon has helped over 5,000 companies across a range of industries to optimize routine business functions, like HR and payroll, and operate more efficiently. Talk to an expert today.

Eur J Hum Genet. 2009 Oct 7.
Comprehensive expression analysis of FSHD candidate genes at the mRNA and protein level.
. Department of Human Genetics, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands.
In facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) the majority of patients carry a D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat contraction in the subtelomere of chromosome 4q.
Several disease mechanisms have been proposed to explain how repeat contraction causes muscular dystrophy. All proposed mechanisms foresee a change from a closed to a more open chromatin structure followed by loss of control over expression of genes in or proximal to D4Z4.
Initially, a distance and residual repeat size-dependent upregulation of the candidate genes FRG2, FRG1 and ANT1 was observed, but most successive expression studies failed to support transcriptional upregulation of 4qter genes. Moreover, chromatin studies do not provide evidence for a cis-spreading mechanism operating at 4qter in FSHD. In part, this inconsistency may be explained by differences in the techniques used, and the use of RNA samples obtained from different muscle groups.
The aim of this study is to comprehensively and uniformly study the expression of the FSHD candidate genes FRG1, FRG2, CRYM, ANT1, ALP, PITX1 and LRP2BP at the RNA and protein level in identically processed primary myoblasts, myotubes and quadriceps muscle.
Expression was compared between samples obtained from FSHD patients and normal controls with samples from myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients as disease controls. No consistent changes in RNA or protein expression levels were observed between the samples. The one exception was a selective increase in FRG2 mRNA expression in FSHD myotubes.
This study provides further evidence that there is no demonstrable consistent, large magnitude, overexpression of any of the FSHD candidate genes.
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most common dystrophies (1 case in 14,000 individuals).
FSHD is characterized by a and progressive loss of motion autonomy. Its infantile form (iFSHD) is considered the most severe form of the disease.
The origin of FSHD has not yet been identified, nor has a therapy been found for the moment.

Meet Maria Medina, News Anchor at KPIX 5, CBS
Q: How did your career start as news anchor?
MM: I actually started delivering the news when I was in eighth grade! I love saying that. My first job was delivering newspapers … I actually wanted to be a newspaper reporter. But then a TV station had me on its morning show when I was in my last year of college and the anchors told me I should try TV news and offered me an internship … I was hooked. Sometimes I would spend 16 hours a day in the newsroom just learning the ropes. I worked on the assignment desk answering phones, I went with photographers to get interviews and I followed reporters on stories. I worked on my resume tape for a couple years before landing my first TV job in Yakima, Washington.
Q: What is a typical day like for you?
MM: It always starts off searching for story ideas. That's actually the toughest part of my job. Then we have an editorial meeting where reporters pitch their stories to the producers, the people who make the decisions behind the scenes. The producers pick your story (hopefully they like the one you pitched), and then you're off to get it done by deadline. That means gathering information, interviews and the video you need. No matter what, our goal is to be on the news at 10 and 11pm. You'd be surprised how many obstacles can get in the way ... I've encountered everything from flat tires, crashing computers, lightning storms, swat situations — but we always seem to make it work and that rush makes every day exciting.
Q: Can you share with our audience one of your most memorable events you've covered?
MM: This question is always so tough to answer because there are so many memorable moments in my career. I think one of the most memorable events was getting a serial killer, who had changed her identity, to admit to who she really was. People in the community were beginning to suspect she was Charlene Gallego, the woman convicted in the "Sex Slave" murders. I got her to agree to sit down face-to-face to with me about the crimes. It was surreal and fascinating at times as I was talking to the woman who was behind all these murders that I had read extensively about ... she put the blame on her husband.
Q: Do you have any advice you can share for those women who may want to pursue a career in broadcast journalism?
MM: Don't listen to the naysayers or trolls. Be confident in who you are, how you present yourself and the way you dress. Even if you may push the boundaries, just as long as you are professional. I've gotten emails and comments about my clothes, makeup and weight. It will happen. But feel good in your body, and don't let anyone get to your head.
Q: Which woman inspires you and why?
MM: My grandmother. She is the strongest, most confident woman I know. She taught me not to care what anyone thinks, and to always look your best so you can feel your best. Sometimes looking your best may just mean wearing a smile.
Q: What are some of the challenges you feel women face today?
MM: Social media has really given people the power to say what they want, while hiding behind their computer screen. I know that as a woman and compared to my male counterparts, I get more lewd emails, messages and comments.
Q: What advice would you give to young women who want to succeed in the workplace?
MM: Speak up. If you don't feel something is right, say something. You are your own advocate.
Q: Can you offer advice to parents with daughters graduating from high school?
MM: Tell them; don't be afraid to ask for help, books before boys and not everything belongs on social media.
Q: What do you like the most about living in the Bay Area?
MM: The weather, and the location! I can surf, snowboard, hike year-round or take a quick road trip to LA, Tahoe, Yosemite or Oregon. You can't beat it!
Five Things About Maria Medina
1. If you could talk to one famous person past or present, who would it be and why?
Oprah. Talk about a woman who broke barriers. Imagine if she had listened to a former boss who told her she wasn't fit for TV news.
2. What's the best advice anyone's ever give you?
My grandma told me when I was a little girl; even if you don't feel confident, act like it and you will look like it ... no one will know.
3. Do you have a favorite Movie?
I don't have a particular favorite movie. But I'm a big Star Wars fan.
4. Where is your dream vacation?
Always Hawaii, it's home for me.
5. What app can't you live without?
Twitter. It's still the best source of information if you want to know what's unfolding pretty much as events are happening right that second.

'Green Card waitlist for Indians runs into 200 years': US senator on country cap
Indian IT professionals, most of whom are highly skilled and come to the US mainly on the H-1B work visas, are the worst sufferers of the current immigration system.
By Press Trust of India | Posted by Kanishka Sarkar | Washington
The per-country cap on legal permanent residency punishes immigrants from India and the wait for the coveted Green Card for Indians runs into 200 years, a top American senator has said, terming the "discrimination" as "inconsistent" with the principles of a merit-based immigration system.
Green Card, known officially as a Permanent Resident Card, is a document issued to immigrants to the US as evidence that the bearer has been granted the privilege of residing permanently.
Indian IT professionals, most of whom are highly skilled and come to the US mainly on the H-1B work visas, are the worst sufferers of the current immigration system which imposes a seven per cent per country quota on allotment of the coveted Green Card or permanent legal residency.
Republican Senator Mike Lee, on the Senate floor, said on Wednesday that he has always been struck by the fact that the government has conditioned Green Card.
There may have been some legitimate reason many decades ago for this, but has led to a system that largely discriminates against Green Card applicants from one country, Lee told his Senate colleagues.
Currently, there is a backlog of almost one million foreign nationals and accompanying family members lawfully residing in the United States who have been approved for, and are waiting to receive, employment-based Green Cards. The largest number of them are from India.
"I mean, literally one country. This is inconsistent with our founding principles. this is not how we try to do things as Americans, and it's not right. Today, if you're a work-based immigrant from India entering into the EB- Green Card application process, you will wait almost 200 years before your application is even considered solely because of where you were born," the senator said.
"Almost 200 years on a waiting list. Some people don't even live that long. Our country isn't much older than that, and that's the amount of time they would have to wait based solely on the basis of the country in which they were born," Lee said, urging his Senate colleagues to lift the country-cap on Green Card applicants.
"If you're born anywhere else, anywhere else other than China; let's say in Ghana, Sweden, Indonesia, basically any other country other than India, your application will be considered immediately. This sort of discrimination is simply inconsistent with the principles of a merit-based immigration system and with our founding principles and the principles that unite us as Americans," Lee said.
He sought unanimous consent that the judicial committee be discharged from further consideration of S 386 and the Senate now proceed to pass the Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act (HR 1044), as passed by the House, that would eliminate the seven per cent per-country ceiling, along with his amendment.
The legislation would allocate employment-based visas to prospective immigrants by application date on a first-come, first-served basis without regard to country of origin.
However, it would not reduce the backlog because it would not increase the number of foreign nationals receiving Green Cards. As passed by the House, HR 1044 would include a three-year transition period from the current system to the new system.
Democratic Senator Dick Durbin, however, opposed Lee's amendment, arguing that it does not include the language to protect immigrants' children who are less than 21 years of age.
The amendment would modify his proposal, allowing for immediate implementation of the 50/50 rule. The Lee amendment, he argued, will also provide that current H-1B employees may continue to change employers.
The purpose of his 50/50 provision is to prevent outsourcing companies from hiring new H-1B employees. Lee's language would not allow these companies to import new H-1B workers to exploit, the senator said.
The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows US companies to employ foreign workers in speciality occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise. Technology companies depend on it to hire tens of thousands of employees each year from countries like India and China.
"So that is not objectionable to me. Lee's amendment also accepts my proposal to delay by one year the bill's section changing the distribution of Green Cards to allow processing time for pending applications," Durbin said.
Durbin said that the amendment currently being considered for which unanimous consent has been asked includes several key provisions he has advocated for that were not in Senator Lee's original bill.
These include filing to protect immigrant workers and their families stuck in the backlog, and annual Green Card set-aside for those ineligible because they are overseas, a one-year delay to section 2 of the bill to protect pending Green Card applications, and the 50/50 rule to protect American jobs and workers and to prevent the exploitation of immigrant workers that helped create the Green Card backlog.

Jack R. Loew Obituary
Jack R. Loew, Real Estate Developer and Philanthropist Jack R. Loew, 66, of West Chester, real estate developer and philanthropist, died Wednesday, Jan. 29, 2014, after a courageous seven month battle against brain cancer. Mr. Loew died at home surrounded by family. Reserved and modest, Mr. Loew was known as a person who led not so much in words as in attitude and actions. He was a man of great integrity who had established a reputation as a fair, innovative and honest businessman. Son of the late Calvin Loew and Marian (Horner) Loew Kimmel, Mr. Loew was born in Philadelphia, moved to Aiken, S.C. and later moved to Wilmington, Del., where he graduated from Mount Pleasant High School. Mr. Loew began honing his skills as a leader early in life through his participation as an Eagle Scout and as president of Student Council. After graduation he attended Carnegie Tech (now Carnegie Mellon University) to study architecture, then transferred to and graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri with a major in business administration. He was a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity. Professionally, Mr. Loew spent the early part of his career designing and manufacturing interior cabins for passenger trains. While this experience was rewarding, Mr. Loew's desire to participate more in the local community drove him to focus on the acquisition and development of land. In 1976, Mr. Loew founded Hough/Loew & Associates, now J. Loew & Associates, originally based in Merion and later moving to Exton. The company initially centered around designing and construction, offering potential building owners a single organization within which a project could be developed, with cost effectiveness, from conceptual design through final construction. Today J. Loew & Associates, Inc. is a diversified real estate company specializing in the development and construction of suburban retail, office, industrial, golf, and residential properties. Since its inception the company has developed many properties, including twenty office and industrial parks and twelve retail centers, all of which have become home to a significant portion of the suburban Philadelphia business community. Devoted to his wife and family, Mr. Loew cherished the time he spent with them, and in his later years, enjoyed traveling throughout the world with his wife, children, grandchildren, and extended family and friends. Among his favorite adventures were African safaris, and hot air ballooning. Just ten months ago, he was climbing the mountains in Asia to see the Tibetan Monasteries and trekking through the Rwanda jungle for a chance encounter with a family of silverback gorillas. One of Mr. Loew's greatest passions was his involvement in philanthropic pursuits. After witnessing the devastation in Sri Lanka from the tsunami in 2004, Mr. Loew contributed funding for the construction of homes for families who lost everything they had owned. He was the benefactor for Exceptional Care for Children in Newark, Delaware, a facility devoted to palliative care for terminally ill children. He has given generously to Friends Association for the Care and Protection of Children in West Chester; Safe Harbor in West Chester, an organization providing food and shelter to the homeless; as well as many other charities. He is survived by his beloved wife of 22 years, Patricia Burton Loew; and their six children, his daughter, Amanda Loew Rocco (Matthew); son, Adam R. Loew (Kelly); step-daughters, Noelle Burton Lachenmayer (Michael) and Liane Burton Duncheskie (Robert); and step-sons, Robert C. Burton (Jennifer) and Donald W. Burton (Brandi). Also he is survived by his 19 grandchildren; his mother Marian Loew Kimmel; and his sister Cheryl Loew. A celebration of Mr. Loew's life will be held at Downingtown Country Club, Friday, Feb. 7, 2014 beginning at 3 p.m. Memorial contributions may be given in Jack's name to the Neighborhood Hospice, 400 E. Marshall St., West Chester, PA and National Brain Tumor Society at www.braintumor.org.

Poor Ant-Man. He's the Marvel hero no one can take seriously. When you have gods like Thor, super-soldiers like Captain America, and forged warriors like Iron Man, it's hard to take someone who can shrink himself that seriously. And when news of an "Ant-Man" film hit the Internet, the general public was quick to mock the idea. What, a man that shrinks himself and retains his human strength? Big whoop!
The film knows these expectations well, and while it doesn't subvert them, it does use them to its advantage to great comedic effect, at the cost of any dramatic or serious heft.
Just after getting out of prison, cat burglar Scott Lang (Paul Rudd, "Anchorman") wants to go straight, but his old robber buddies set him up with one more gig: a safe in the basement of a mansion, which belongs to the supposedly senile old scientist, Hank Pym (Michael Douglass, "Wall Street").
Lang is shocked, however, when it's not riches he finds, but rather a strange suit that allows him to shrink on a whim. Pym reveals he wanted him in the suit all this time, so that he can steal an experimental suit with similar technology from his old lab before the bad guys can get their hands on it.
When the story calls for something with more gusto, however, it always tries to keep it small. There are explosions, yes, but they're only on the scale of, say, the toy train set that the battle takes place on. It's a story that knows its limits; a man whose power is shrinking cannot be taken seriously as an action star, so they don't make him one. He's more of a clever thief, focusing more on outsmarting the forces of evil than destroying them with whizbangs and explosions.
As I said earlier, "Ant-Man" also takes advantage of audience expectations. No one was able to take Ant-Man seriously, so the movie is not a serious one. It plays up the ridiculousness of the technology and powers at hand. It's much funnier to see a supervillain knocked out by a bug zapper than with a typical Marvel blow, for example. And it reinforces the silliness with silly, self-aware writing.
It lacks cleverness and depth, but it's admirable that "Ant-Man" was able to use the weaknesses of its story to an incredible advantage. If you want something that subverts the typical Marvel action-fest, "Ant-Man" is one you should check out.

Since automatic account creation is suppressed by TorBirdy, there is no way to hit "manual" while the account is being created.
Only IMAP and SMTP accounts can be created while TorBirdy is activated.
There is no way to switch from IMAP to POP.
I was going to open the same ticket.
The only workaround is "disabling TorBirdy -> adding account -> enabling TorBirdy again" I think.
Unfortunately not. The Thunderbird account creation wizard wants to successfully "test" the server, before it allows pressing the button "create account".
This means, with your workaround, you'd have to connect to the server without using TorBirdy at least once. Since the mail provider is an adversary in TorBirdy's thread model, this is not an option.
I just added support for selecting between IMAP and POP accounts during the account creation wizard.
Check out the latest commit and create a XPI from that to test this.
That was fast. Tested. Works.
The button is on the wrong position and inside the e-mail field. Not so pretty. But I guess it's acceptable.
Perhaps you should make POP the default choice, since it's more privacy friendly.
In case someone else wants to test, see #6099.
It was fine for me on Icedove but then I just tested it on Windows and I see what you mean.
We will close this only after we fix the layout issue.
Uninstalled TorBirdy Addon in Thunderbird. Is this necessary or is installing over it fine?
Yup, like I said, the layout issue is there and I will fix it soon. By "fix" above, I meant setting POP as default was fixed.
Installed thunderbird and latest git TorBirdy again.
I am not complying, just helping testing.
I appreciate that you are helping us test this out!
I don't seem to have this issue. Can we get someone else to test this please?
Fixed for me in 0.0.9.


Computer Associates officials say the next release of Unicenter, due in the fall, will include network management technology acquired in the $337 million buyout of Concord Communications.
Computer Associates is planning major network-management enhancements for its Unicenter product line with technology that it acquired with its buyout of Concord Communications, which closed Tuesday.
The products acquired in the buyout of Concord will be particularly important in extending the network-management capabilities of CA Unicenter systems management suite, officials at Computer Associates International Inc. said Tuesday.
Concord Communications Inc. is mainly known for its eHealth suite of network-performance monitoring availability and capacity reporting software. But key assets include network-availability and fault detection and management technology that Concord acquired in February through its acquisition of Aprisma Management Technologies Inc.
CA acquired Concord, based in Marlboro, Mass., for $337 million in cash based on a final price of $17 for each share of Concord common sock. Concord acquired Aprisma last February for $93 million in cash.
The Concord acquisition brings a set of technologies that had not been available in Unicenter, said Alan Nugent, senior vice president and general manager of CAs Unicenter business unit.
"This is a very significant acquisition in that we are filling some holes in the product platform," Nugent said. With Concords network-management products in the Unicenter product line, "we can approach new customers, but also do a better job for existing customers," he said.
/zimages/3/28571.gifClick here to read about Nugents hiring as head of CAs Unicenter business unit, which was part of a major management restructuring at the company.
In its current state, Unicenter is "very good on the systems management side and just good on the networks side," Nugent said. With the addition of Concord technology, "we become excellent across the board," he said.
The Concord acquisitions will allow CA to market Unicenter to communications, cable and Internet service provides in a way it never could before, Nugent said.
"While CA has already had a major presence in the enterprise side …, we never had an opportunity to approach the operational side" to the same degree, he said. "That is a whole new market opportunity for us."
CA is going to move quickly to integrate the network-management technologies from the Aprisma Spectrum product line into Unicenter Release 11, which is due to be delivered in the fall, Nugent said.
"By the time [Release 11] ships, we will be able to provide a set of Concord and Aprisma technology" in Unicenter, he said. The additions will make Unicenter "dramatically more comprehensive" in terms network performance monitoring and configuration, he said.
/zimages/3/28571.gifTo read the details about Computer Associates decision to reorganize into five businesses, click here.
CA is also in the process of giving Unicenter a more modular architecture to make it easier to integrate additional features and technologies, Nugent said.
"It was difficult the way the product was originally designed and built to keep adding new features—such as third-party products," he said.
Another major new feature that CA is building into Unicenter is what CA is calling a federated data model based on an MDB (management database) that will provide a general repository of all of the configuration information about all of the IT assets connected to the network.
MDB will contain information about "data structures and procedures that allow for the storage and retrieval of information about business assets and their relationship" to each other within the network, Nugent said.
With MDB in place, "the customer will only have to have a single repository for all of their enterprise business assets and human identity systems," he said.
For example, a company might be running an Oracle Financials application with the Oracle database. The MDB would keep track of all of the related IT assets that allow the company to run that application, which might include a Sun Solaris server that is also connected to an x86 Linux server or a cluster of servers. With MDB in place, "its really all about keeping all the assets and relationships all in one place," he said.

Интерпретация Фока — интерпретация квантовой механики с точки зрения концепции реальности квантовых состояний микрообъекта. Была выдвинута В. А. Фоком и А. Д. Александровым.
Утверждает, что волновая функция каждого микрообъекта является объективной характеристикой его реального состояния в определённых классическим образом внешних условиях. Она определяет вероятности появления различных результатов взаимодействия данного микрообъекта с другими объектами. При многократном повторении определённых внешних условий вероятности результатов взаимодействия с другими объектами проявляются в виде определённой частоты появления результатов. Эти частоты дают возможность осуществить статистическое истолкование волновой функции. Интерпретация Фока, в отличие от интерпретации Блохинцева, утверждает, что волновая функция не может относиться ни к какому определённому статистическому коллективу, так как элементами статистических коллективов, рассматриваемых в квантовой механике, являются не самые микрообъекты, а результаты опытов над ними, причём определённая постановка опыта соответствует одному определённому коллективу. Поскольку же получаемые из волновой функции распределения вероятностей для разных величин относятся к разным постановкам опыта, они относятся и к разным коллективам. Таким образом, волновая функция ни к какому определённому статистическому коллективу относиться не может.

Upcoming Xbox One Games: July 2018
By Adam Newell on Sun, 06/17/2018 - 15:06
June had a good mix of third-party titles for Xbox One owners to get their hands on with Super Bomberman R and Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy finally arriving on the console after exclusive stints on other platforms.
That trend is set to continue this month with No Man's Sky, which has enjoyed console exclusivity on the PS4 for the past few years. The game will release at the end of the month alongside its brand new update, NEXT, which is finally adding multiplayer to the title.
Just like the PS4 this month, the Xbox One doesn't have many big first-party titles coming out for awhile. Instead, Microsoft will rely on third-party support throughout the summer and heading into the holiday season.
There's content on the way for some of its titles, however, with Sea of Thieves getting a brand new update over the next few months to go alongside the Hungering Deep, which had a surprise release in June.
Here are some of our top picks to tide you over in July.

With the following Belgium Money Transfer Guide, you will be able to maximise the value of your currency every time you need to make international money transfers.
We will show you how to send money to or from Belgium with lower fees and better currency exchange rates than any of your local banks.
MoneyCorp brings a lot of experience to the table as they have been in this business for more than 35 years and kept on growing throughout this time. They have a very low minimum transfer of only €50 and for many countries, they will provide a fee-free money transfer. Just go to their website and fill the form in order to get a free quote.
WorldFirst is newer on the market but has been focused more on delivering great services through technology. Their easy to use mobile App is a statement in that sense. With the app you can literally send money on the go. For more information about it, be sure to check their website.
Tip: Both companies have a French version of their website that is easily accessible by clicking the French flag in the top right corner.
Min. Transfer: £ / € 50.
All the Euro using countries are under the Anti-money laundering laws, which applies to the entire territory of those countries. There are no differences like you can find in the USA where they have state-by-state laws.
In short, this means that any company working with currencies in Belgium is able to provide their services in all the parts of the country.
Currencies: Both companies previously listed by us have access to many international currencies and, of course, a big focus is put on the Euro transactions. Great benefits are provided when sending money from Belgium to EU countries like France, Spain, Ireland, Greece, Portugal, Netherlands or Germany.
But having a great infrastructure means that you can easily send money to other smaller countries like Jamaica, Sri Lanka, Israel, Morocco or even New Zealand.
As one of the founding countries of the European Union, Belgium is a modern and private enterprise economy with a highly developed transport network. It was also the first country to undergo an industrial revolution in Europe in the early 19th century.
Real estate: During the recession, Belgium was spared from the big falls in property value suffered by many other European countries. This has led to a relatively stable real estate market. Property values are rising again in Belgium after a small decline in 2014 (similar situation with Lithuania), with the average price of a regular house in Belgium standing at €202,137 in the third quarter of 2014.
Biotech: In 2014, two out of three IPO's on the Euronext Brussels list were biotech companies. In 2015, another Belgian company, Bone Therapeutics, has further established the biotech sector as one of the most prolific sectors in the country.
If you consider moving to Belgium, you may find the following information helpful.
Good Employment: Many employers give the 13th month of paid work per year in salary.
Agreeable Work Hours: 5% of employees work long hours.
High Level of Education for Population: 72% of adults aged 25 – 64 have completed upper secondary education.
Lower Average Annual Income: Average Household net-adjusted disposable income per capita is $28,307 USD per year.
Difficult for Non-EU Resident Employment: Belgian employers are reluctant to hire non-EU nationals for employment.
High Taxation: Tax rates are between 25% and 50% of income after social security deductions.
Popular cities for business and real estate transactions in Belgium are: Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Charleroi, Liège, Bruges, Namur, Leuven, Mons and Aalst.
It's important to realise that the primary business of an FX company currency exchange. This means that they are literally in the business of trading cash. To do this they needed to optimize all of the available channels and, therefore, they could offer a better and cheaper service than the competition.
These companies buy currency in large volumes at a reduced, bulk price. When a customer decides to place an international money transfer, it indirectly helps the company to distribute and re-sell their currency for a profit margin. The bigger the transfer that is placed, the more money that comes their way. This is when they are able to offer you a No Fee transaction.
Send Money to Belgium: Companies that provide international money transfers to Belgium.
Send Money from Belgium: Companies that take on Belgian Customers.
