Get useful tips for buying recycled and salvaged materials for building a tiny home.
Using recycled and salvaged materials is a great way to keep costs down on a tiny home build.
"Microshelters" by Derek "Deek" Diedricksen provides an inside look at the tiny home movement that is sweeping across America.
Microshelters (Storey Publishing, 2015) by Derek "Deek" Diedricksen explores the most creative, clever microshelters out there and what makes them work. Diedricksen also gives plenty of tips for supply scavenging, building and decorating a tiny home. This excerpt comes from chapter 7, "Budgeting & Salvaging."
You can purchase this book from the MOTHER EARTH NEWS store: Microshelters.
By now you've probably sensed a "subtle" theme that runs throughout my projects and designs: I like to build things with free junk. "Curbside culling" is a term I coined a while back, and it covers everything from yard-sale searching and word-of-mouth acquisitions to dumpster diving and back-lot browsing, all of which can make a microshelter much more affordable. In addition to the obvious environmental benefits, using recycled goods can make your structure stand out from the pack — in a very good way.
There are, however, some ins, outs, dos, and don'ts of the trade, and I'd like to cover a few of the more common, worthwhile goods you're going to come across when cruising the streets. You don't have to wake up early to race the trash crew for prime pickings, and you don't have to combat fellow "seagulls" (junk hunters) with your fancy moves. Just keep your eyes peeled any time you're on the road. Don't worry, it's not brain surgery; you'll do just fine.
What are you waiting for? Get out there and start some creative harvesting — and enjoy the process, the savings, and the eventual results.
These things are strewn everywhere. With increasing technological advances and insulation efficiency (R-value) standards, homeowners are ditching their old (perfectly good) windows at a darn rapid rate. For you and me, this is not a bad thing by any means. I can't tell you the number of windows I've come across, grabbed, and later used in my own projects or just sold to pay for construction items I can't find for free.
There are, however, a few things to be wary of when it comes to windows. Beyond avoiding cracked glass or broken frames (unless the window is amazing and could be fixed easily enough), you might want to pass on older windows. Not only are most "antique" windows single-paned, and therefore less efficient, but their glazing (the putty that holds the panes in) often needs work or replacing and can sometimes contain a percentage of asbestos. These windows are more likely to be covered with lead-based sealants and paints, too, both things you don't want to be sprinkling on your breakfast cereal! Now, if the windows are perfectly intact, I'm not saying you can't use them, as I've made use of plenty of them in sheds and shacks, but just be careful, especially if it's an installation that will be in close proximity to kids, since lead exposure is dangerous for children.
That said, if you ever find any antique-looking stained-glass windows, or Gothic-arched church windows, grab them and hold on to them for dear life! They're very valuable.
Logically, doors would be the next topic of consideration here, and they too are abundant. New, they can be incredibly expensive, so on any build I've done for a client, if I can incorporate a nice, vintage door that actually enhances the look of the structure while decreasing my cash outlay, you know darn well I'm gonna play that hand. Vintage doors typically are built differently (often better) than most standard stock doors you'll find out there today. Granted, you'll see some amazing new doors with incredibly good R-values, but whether you use them will depend on the caliber, intent, and overall look of your project. For the budget-minded soul, just keep a lookout for replaced doors. Like windows, these are often just sitting curbside, waiting for a new home. At any given time, I seem to have about three or four in stock, which gives me the luxury of options when I'm faced with a need. When my stock gets too thick, I just sell a few.
You can also build your own board-and-batten doors, which is surprisingly easy. The sky's the limit in terms of materials and design: multicolored boards, mixed lumber stock, inset windows or wine-bottle ends, carved designs — you can get as highfalutin and original as you want.
Although small in the overall scheme of a building project, hardware seems to be the most overlooked realm of ever-present freebies out there. I really do mean ever-present. Most people will see a roadside pile of cheap doors and pass them up without a single synapse-fire of consideration. But true scrounger 'n' savers are wiser than that. Take it from a guy who won't have to buy hinges, hooks, knobs, or drawer pulls for a few decades. Now, you may be thinking this a waste of time and energy — all for items so very small — but aside from the motivation of saving perfectly good metalwork from the landfill, consider that hinges, for example, can run up to three or four dollars each. Now consider that the average home has several doors and swinging cabinet fronts, and you'll start to get a feel for the bigger picture.
I once bought a small box full of old, rusty hinges for two dollars from a barn estate sale in my town. After using many of them, I sold the rest of the lot on eBay for almost $100. Vintage hardware is hard to come by, and it's expensive at "salvage boutiques," so be on the lookout for old doors being tossed. Smashed-up dressers often have nice hardware on them, as do kitchen cabinets, which are frequently updated and are loaded with metallic goodies. Learn to look beyond the initial face value of each item you come across — you'll be amazed at what's left behind.
Pallet wood can be hit-and-miss. Some of it is just so lousy that it's not really worth the time to gently bust it apart into useable planks. On the other hand, some pallets are made with woods that may be common in a place like Brazil but are considered exotic and interesting to people like you and me. And shipping pallets, also known as forklift pallets, often are made of oak. Usually you can tell an oak pallet from pine (or other softwood) right off the bat when you try to lift it; oak is much heavier. It's also expensive, so the effort of reclaiming oak from pallets can be very worthwhile.
Pallets are free at many locales, such as behind industrial park businesses, hardware stores, and any retailers of bulky, heavy items (woodstove shops, for instance). Often all you have to do is ask. You'll need a truck or trailer to haul off more than one or two, though. Then there's the disassembly. Some folks use pallet busters — long, crowbarlike tools with forked ends — to speed up the process. And you can find plenty of online tutorials (on YouTube and the like) showing several ways to get it done.
The most important thing to look out for is the grading or identifying stamp on a pallet. The pallets you want to use are stamped with a big old "HT," indicating that the wood was heat-treated to kill any possibly invasive insects before it made its journey. The pallets you want to avoid carry an "MB" or "MT" stamp. This stands for methyl bromide, a fungicide; you wouldn't want to spray this on your toast, so don't use the wood for your new home. Regardless, even with clean-looking "HT" pallets, it's never a bad idea to brush, then spray them down before use, as who knows what used to sit atop them?
There are a ton of things you can use pallet wood for. There are more than a few books on the subject, as well as dedicated websites and instructional videos. Among the most common uses are flooring and wall cladding. While time-consuming, this gives any home a great, multicolored look — all with rustic, natural woods. I've also made quite a few Adirondack chairs and benches out of the stuff, as well as bookshelves, toolboxes, and garden planters. I've even used the thicker struts (often 2x4s or 2x3s) for actual framing, and I've gone so far as using whole pallets as mini "budget decks" or landings on my backwoods cabins.
isn't as elusive as a Bigfoot sighting, flock of dodo birds, or albino rhino, either. Keep those eyes peeled.
However you come by it, salvaged lumber can give a build a custom look in addition to saving you loot. If you're aiming for a distressed look or a certain patina, there's no better way to achieve this than with wood that already has that genuine aura about it. And this is much easier than trying to reproduce the look of antique wood with new stock, expensive tools, too much time, and chemicals! If rough and vintage wood isn't your thing, keep in mind that not all free wood is going to be paint-laden and worn. With a little looking, and word of mouth, you'll probably find just what you need.
As a final tip, plan ahead and start to harbor materials early. A shed will do wonders to keep your materials safe and dry until they're needed, but on the low end of the spectrum, even just storing them under a six-dollar tarp will be sufficient — at least for a bit. Add in a good dose of patience and persistence while hunting for all this stuff and, again, you'll be just fine.
Here's a quick list of tools that I often stash in my vehicle in case I need to do some quick dismantling on the roadside, at a transfer station, or in your garage at night! (Kidding ... kidding ... ) These enable me to take things apart safely and to store them cleanly and securely for transport in my vehicle. If you have a truck or a trailer, you'll be way ahead of the pack and able to haul just about anything you want, but even the smallest of cars will work for most found items (well, maybe not hot tubs, grand pianos, and fridges!).

Devin Logan hurts shoulder at Dew Tour
Devin Logan hurt her shoulder during practice at Dew Tour. The injury was clearly bothering her during slopestyle qualifiers, and she ended up pulling out of halfpipe qualifiers. She has a month before X Games to heal up. We'll be keeping an eye on her status before then.
Keep an eye on Kim Lamarre
In slopestyle finals, Kim Lamarre caught an edge on the Toyota rail, sending her off the landing and into the "death cookies" on the side of the jump. She reportedly sustained a shoulder injury. Be sure to monitor her status ahead of X-Games.
Maggie Voison out for season
Maggie Voisin, who topped the slopestyle qualifier at Dew Tour, elected not to take her second run after tweaking her knee on the first go-round. On Monday, she got an MRI, revealing a torn ACL, which will end her 2014-15 contest season. It's safe to drop Voisin from your FFL team.
Brita Sigourney is good to go for Dew Tour
Brita Sigourney is back on skis after a summer skiing injury. She sat out the Copper Grand Prix, but is 100% ready for Dew Tour. She's a heavy contender, with the capability of emerging victorious. A solid pick...

The Very Best of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons

This collection combines Cher's more popular recordings from the mid-'60s to her Casablanca years in the late '70s, including a few tracks with Sonny. It contains signature smashes, ranging from "Bang Bang," "The Way of Love," "Half Breed," "Dark Lady" and "Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves" to her 1979 disco hit "Take Me Home." This album showcases Cher not only as a rock, pop and, folk star, but also as an interpreter of standards.
One of the most ingenious and imaginative comedy shows ever to grace British television, the series, originally broadcast by the BBC from 1969 to 1974, threw away the rule book of traditional sketch writing, dispensing with punch-lines and adopting an innovative stream of consciousness approach (aided by Gilliam's animation), pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable in style and content.

Based on three years of research and more than 150 interviews with close family, friends, and co-workers, this Hollywood legend biography from author James Spada reveals for the first time the devastating effect on Bette of her father's desertion; her oddly close relationship with her mother; her massive self-doubts and numerous, tempestuous marriages and extramarital affairs.

From Oscar-winning screenwriter Alan Ball comes this drama series that takes a darkly comic look at a dysfunctional L.A. family that runs a funeral business. Starring Peter Krause, Frances Conroy, Michael C. Hall, Lauren Ambrose, Rachel Griffiths and Jeremy Sisto.

It's the first Hilton property in Jordan.
Located 1345 feet below sea level, the Hilton Dead Sea Resort & Spa just opened in Sweimeh, Jordan, and it looks stunning.
The resort is located at the lowest point on Earth on the eastern shores of the Dead Sea and is the newest property to open in the area. It is also Hilton's first hotel in Jordan.
The Dead Sea has long been a destination spot for health-minded travelers, who seek the curative powers of the sea's saline-saturated waters and mineral-rich black mud.
"The Dead Sea is one of the most unique places in the world and has evolved into a major hub of both religious and health and wellness tourism in the region," Andreas Lackner, a Hilton executive who oversees brand management for the area, said.
Situated directly on the ocean, the resort has exclusive beach access as well as an infinity pool and sun deck. There's also a 24-hour gym, but the spa is not scheduled to open until September 2017.
The hotel's 285 guest rooms all have terraces with sea views. A recent search for a room in early April 2017 returned doubles from $140. Guests staying in executive rooms and suites will have access to the only executive lounge in the area.
Seven new restaurants offer plenty of dining options for guests, including the all-day Spectrum, Middle Eastern cuisine at 1312, Italian fare at Bacchus, a beach bar, and the Sky Bar rooftop lounge.
Nearby attractions within Jordan include the ruins at Jerash, the lost city of Petra, and the spectacular slot canyon at Wadi Mujib, located less than a half hour from the hotel.

Probiotics, the gut bacteria widely thought to be a key to healthy digestion, also may help ease diarrhea.
Probiotics are living microorganisms found in foods such as yogurt, sauerkraut, sourdough bread and some cheese, along with power or pill supplements.
Probiotics shortened diarrhea by an average of one day, according to an analysis of 63 studies conducted by the Cochrane Collaboration.
The study, which didn't distinguish which probiotic foods or products are most effective, found "hardly any" side effects of probiotics but noted a chance that probiotics could cause infection in rare cases.
Saccharomyces boulardii, a yeast probiotic, may improve diarrhea associated with antibiotics or travel, according to Healthline. The publication urged caution among people with compromised immune systems and suggested talking with a doctor before taking probiotic supplements.
Probiotics work by restoring the balance of "good" versus "bad" bacteria in the body, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
Diarrhea is a common side effect of antibiotic treatments, and eating yogurt has been shown to lessen this effect, the Cleveland Clinic said.
Probiotics also may improve inflammatory bowel disease, chronic stomach inflammation and ulcers, constipation, acid reflux, and other conditions.
FDA approval is not needed for dietary supplements such as probiotics, and opinions vary about their safety and efficacy, the Cleveland Clinic noted, adding that more research is needed.

Hezbollah Nature Reserves were a system of Hezbollah strongholds built in southern Lebanon between the Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon 2000 and the 2006 Lebanon war. The term "Nature Reserve" (, shmorat tev'a) was originally IDF slang and refer to the fact that they were primarily placed in the countryside away from habitation and were declared off-limits to the IDF during the war, due to fear of high casualties.

Human Rights Watch wrote in an extensive report published about a year after the war that "we found strong evidence that Hezbollah stored most of its rockets and missiles in bunkers and weapon storage facilities located in uninhabited fields, forests and valleys,… and that Hezbollah fired the vast majority of its rockets from pre-prepared positions outside villages."

The Israeli special forces unit Maglan stumbled into a Nature Reserve near Maroun ar-Ras and suffered heavy casualties. "We didn't know what hit us," said one of the Maglan soldiers. "In seconds we had two dead including the combat medic." "We expected a tent and three Kalashnikovs — that was the intelligence we were given. Instead, we found a hydraulic steel door leading to a very well-equipped network of underground tunnels."

After the battle of Maroun ar-Ras, the head of IDF Northern Command Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam forbade any further attacks on Nature Reserves. "A nature reserve can swallow an entire brigade," he said.
According to Haaretz "[t]hroughout the war the General Staff and the Northern Command restricted offensive operations into these areas, following the initial encounter…[at]  the "nature reserve" code-named Shaked near the town of Maroun al-Ras."

The well entrenched Nature Reserves were not vulnerable to heavy artillery or airstrikes. The decision not to attack these positions, sometimes only hundreds of meters from the Israeli border, made it possible for Hezbollah to continue firing rockets over Northern Israel throughout the war. Most of the short range Katyusha rockets fired on Israel during the war were fired from Nature Reserves.

In December 2007 the Knesset Foreign Affairs Committee issued the findings of its investigation into the 2006 war in Lebanon. It condemned the senior IDF command in unusually severe terms and said that the army's methods of fighting "played into Hezbollah's hands." It was especially critical of the delay in launching a ground war and refraining from attacking the Nature Reserves.

Another Nature Reserve was found at Labbouna, near a  forest undergrowth hillside a few hundred meters from the Israeli border and some kilometer from the UNIFIL headquarters at Naqoura. The area was completely sealed off by Hezbollah in 2002 and declared a "military zone". Neither Israel nor UNIFIL understood what Hezbollah was up to until the 2006 war. "We never saw them build anything," a high ranking UNIFIL officer told Nicholas Blanford. "They must have brought the cement in by the spoonful." Hezbollah maintained a clearly visible outpost nearby that was immediately shelled by the IDF on July 12, after the abduction of the two Israeli soldiers. This outpost however was only a decoy that was already abandoned and the fighters had relocated to the covered positions in the Nature Reserves.

Hezbollah had a commanding view of northern Israel all the way to Acre and Haifa. From the first day of the war this Nature reserve was a source of almost constant Katyusha rocket fire. Israel repeatedly tried to knock out the launch site by the use massive artillery and air strikes, including the use of cluster bombs and phosphorus grenades. But the rockets continued to be fired until the last hour before the ceasefire.

Hezbollah fighters completely commanded the terrain to the south and claimed to have destroyed an armored bulldozer and a tank only 6 meters into Lebanese territory, on August 8, 2006. The IDF confirmed that Capt.(res.) Gilad Balhasan, 28, of Karmiel, and St.-Sgt.(res.) Yesamu Yalau, 26, of Or Yehuda were killed in the incident.

The IDF however bypassed Labbouna and had it effectively surrounded for the latter part of the war but there are no reports of any IDF attempt to capture the area. Instead  Hezbollah continued to fire rockets at northern Israel until the ceasefire agreement on Aug. 14. Hezbollah fighters who were stationed at Labbouna during the war claim to have launched a raid on an IDF position inside Israeli territory, killing and injuring several Israeli soldiers, including an officer. IDF confirmed that an officer, Maj.Colonel (res.) Nimrod Hillel, was killed, while another IDF soldier was severely wounded, in the area of Labbouna on August 10. According to Hezbollah all of the resistance fighters at Labbouna survived the war but several fighters reported spitting blood and experiencing prolonged health effects after inhaling white phosphorus.

After the ceasefire Hezbollah withdrew from the area in accordance with UN resolution 1701. The IDF then entered the area and destroyed a large bunker system before withdrawing from Lebanon. Towards the end of the war the IDF "chanced" upon what was then an unknown well-equipped bunker system overlooking the road where the abduction of the two soldiers took place.

Nicholas Blanford visited an untouched and apparently abandoned Nature Reserve near Rashaf more than six months after the war. The area is about six kilometers from the Israeli border and saw heavy fighting in the last days of the war. The large deserted bunker was accessed through a narrow 6 meter shaft that led into a 60 meters long main passage, with steel doors every 10 meters. Blanford estimated that the main section was 35–50 meters under the surface. The facility was fitted with a communications room, air condition and electricity as well as a bathroom and a kitchen. It had multiple entrances and exits.

After the war UNIFIL searched southern Lebanon and found 33 Nature Reserves scattered across the countryside.

In January 2007 IDF found two underground bunkers, connected by a tunnel, on Israeli territory along the Lebanese border. The bunkers contained food and weapons equipment and were destroyed by the IDF.

SIMFEROPOL: Crimea's parliament voted to join Russia on Thursday and its Moscow-backed government set a referendum on the decision in 10 days' time in a dramatic escalation of the crisis over the Ukrainian Black Sea peninsula.
The sudden acceleration of moves to bring Crimea, which has an ethnic Russian majority and has effectively been seized by Russian forces, formally under Moscow's rule came as European Union leaders held an emergency summit groping for ways to pressure Russia to back down and accept mediation.
U.S. President Barack Obama took the first steps to punish Russians and Ukrainians involved in what he called "threatening the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine", ordering the freezing of their U.S. assets and a ban on travel to the United States.
The names on the blacklist were not immediately made public but a U.S. official said they did not include Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The crisis in Ukraine began in November when Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich, under Russian pressure, turned his back on a trade deal with the EU and accepted a $15 billion bailout from Moscow. That prompted three months of street protests leading to the overthrow of Yanukovich on February 22.
The Crimean parliament voted unanimously on Thursday "to enter into the Russian Federation with the rights of a subject of the Russian Federation".
The vice premier of Crimea, home to Russia's Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol, said a referendum on the status would take place on March 16. All state property would be "nationalized", the Russian ruble adopted and Ukrainian troops treated as occupiers and forced to surrender or leave, he said.
Russian stocks fell and the ruble weakened further after the news. Moody's ratings agency said the stand-off was negative for Russia's sovereign creditworthiness.
A mission of 35 unarmed military observers from the pan-European Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe was stopped from entering Crimea by unidentified men in military fatigues when they traveled from the port of Odessa, Poland's defense minister said.

Robert Chamboulan est un écrivain de langue française (Saint-Jean-d'Angély,  - Royan, ), mari de Germaine Pelletan. Il a aussi utilisé les pseudonymes Robert Jean-Boulan et Gilles Hersay.

Biographie
Ses parents, coiffeurs protestants, s'installent à Royan en 1905. Il devient excellent flûtiste et utilisera ce talent la première année de son mariage dans les rangs de l'orchestre des Concerts Colonne à Paris, tout en prenant des cours d'harmonie avec Lazare Lévy.

Il fait un séjour de 7 ans au Liban comme rédacteur en chef du journal La Syrie. Sa femme fera du journalisme avec lui et recueillera notamment une belle documentation sur le Liban et ses habitants. De retour en France en 1933, il emménage à Chatou avec sa famille et travaille comme feuilletoniste à Paris Soir et à L'Intransigeant, tout en écrivant des romans de cape et d'épée sous le nom de Robert Jean-Boulan, des policiers sous le nom de Gilles Hersay, et de nombreux poèmes (publiés aux Éditions Debresse). Sa femme écrira elle aussi romans policiers et romans sentimentaux dans la collection Fama sous le nom de Gilles Hersay. Ce n'est qu'à partir de la guerre qu'elle prendra son nom de jeune fille : Germaine Pelletan, qu'elle gardera même après la Libération.
Mobilisé en 1939 sur la ligne Maginot, Robert restera prisonnier au Stalag VII A à Mosbourg, en Bavière, jusqu'à Noël 1944, où il revient au titre de la relève. Il rejoindra sa femme et sa fille dans la Résistance.

Après la guerre, il devient rédacteur en chef de La Gironde Populaire à Bordeaux, qui devient par la suite "La Nouvelle République" puis à Royan (où il devient propriétaire du journal hebdomadaire La Côte de Beauté), et où il reste jusqu'à sa mort.
Royan, après le terrible bombardement du , n'est qu'un amas de ruines où tentent de survivre les Royannais, revenus dans leurs débris de foyers, prêts à tout pour rebâtir leur ville. Robert Chamboulan devient adjoint du maire Charles Regazzoni et va participer au redressement culturel de sa cité par de nombreuses manifestations et  conférences. Il fondera avec son ami Hélie de Brémond d'Ars-Migré, l'Académie de Saintonge en 1957, et remettra sur pied la Société des Lettres de Saintonge et d'Aunis, créée en 1939, et dissoute durant la guerre. Il en assurera la présidence jusqu'à sa mort. Une rue à Royan, perpétue son souvenir. Sa femme, Germaine Pelletan, reprendra le flambeau, puis sa fille aînée, Gisèle Touroude, jusqu'en 2000.

Ses deux filles, Gisèle et Mireille, se consacrent à l'éducation musicale. Gisèle, professeur au Collège Emile Zola de 1950 à 1960, est aussi directrice de l'école de Musique Albert Roussel, qu'elle fonde  en souvenir de ce  compositeur mort en 1937 à Royan. Elle travaille également 15 ans avec la Schola Cantorum de Paris.  Gisèle Chamboulan épouse l'écrivain Georges Touroude qui fut instituteur toute sa vie dans la région, historien, conférencier, membre de la Ligue des Droits de l'Homme dont il deviendra président d'honneur jusqu'à sa mort.

Social media giant Twitter TWTR.N Inc, under increased threat of regulation and plagued by serious security breaches, is appointing one of the world's best-regarded hackers to tackle everything from engineering missteps to misinformation.
The company on Monday named Peiter Zatko, widely known by his hacker handle Mudge, to the new position of head of security, giving him a broad mandate to recommend changes in structure and practices. Zatko answers to CEO Jack Dorsey and is expected to take over management of key security functions after a 45- to 60-day review.
In an exclusive interview, Zatko said he will examine "information security, site integrity, physical security, platform integrity — which starts to touch on abuse and manipulation of the platform — and engineering."
Zatko most recently oversaw security at the electronic payments unicorn Stripe. Before that, he worked on special projects at Google and oversaw handing out grants for projects on cybersecurity at the Pentagon's famed Defense Advanced Research and Projects Agency (DARPA).
Zatko's colorful career began in the 1990s, when he simultaneously conducted classified work for a government contractor and was among the leaders of Cult of the Dead Cow, a hacking group notorious for releasing Windows hacking tools in order to goad Microsoft into improving security.
"I don't know if anyone can fix Twitter's security, but he'd be at the top of my list," said Dan Kaufman, who supervised Zatko at DARPA and now leads the advanced products group at Google.
Twitter faces numerous security challenges. A year ago, the U.S. government accused two men of spying for Saudi Arabia when they worked at Twitter years earlier, saying that they passed along private information about the kingdom's critics. here
In July, a group of young hackers tricked employees and won access to internal tools, which let them change account settings and then tweet from the accounts of then-presidential candidate Joe Biden, Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk. here.
"The data breach this summer was an important reminder of how far Twitter needs to go in building some of the basic security functions necessary to run a service targeted by adversaries much more skilled than the teenagers arrested for that incident," said Alex Stamos, a former Facebook chief security officer and current Stanford researcher who has helped lead efforts to fight election disinformation.
Stamos, who once worked for Zatko's security consultancy, called him a great fit for a company lacking the financial muscle of Facebook and Google. "They are going to have to find creative solutions to these problems, and if Mudge is famous for anything in security, it is being creative."
Zatko said he was committed to improving public conversations on Twitter. He praised a recent move to increase "friction" by prompting users to comment instead of simply retweeting; a next step could be to force people to understand a long conversation before participating in it, he said.
Zatko said he appreciated Twitter's openness to unconventional security approaches, such as his proposal for confusing bad actors by manipulating the data they receive from Twitter about how people interact with their posts.
"They are willing to take some risks," Zatko said of his new employer. "With the challenges of algorithms and algorithmic bias, they are not standing by and waiting until someone else solves the problem."

Trump's pitch to cut taxes for the rich is a doozy
Sep. 1, 2017 Updated: Sep. 1, 2017 6:09 p.m.
President Donald Trump speaks about tax reform at the Loren Cook Company, Wednesday, Aug. 30, 2017, in Springfield, Mo. (AP Photo/Alex Brandon)Alex Brandon, Associated Press
Republicans have one idea and one idea only: That we should cut taxes for the rich. The only thing that changes is the sales pitch.
And the latest pitch, offered by President Trump on Wednesday, is a bit of a doozy.
Back around 2012, when Mitt Romney was running for president, the pitch was that we wanted to encourage "job creators" (i.e., rich people) to work harder. Their taxes were so high that it simply wasn't worth it for them to put in that marginal hour at the office, or to build that additional business.
The payoff would be too low, particularly relative to how much money they'd already accumulated. Why bother putting in the extra effort, even if that extra effort might create a job or higher wages for someone else?
Romney was a suitable spokesperson for this argument. He was, after all, a successful businessman who had built and grown lots of companies. He could make a credible case that if people like him were given the choice between working an extra hour and spending that hour golfing, the economy might benefit if he chose the office.
Today, of course, Trump can't make the same argument with a straight face.

Trump may see himself in Joe Arpaio
Punish public officials who disenfranchise voters
The imaginary immigrant hordes
He and his plutocratic entourage have illustrated how many rich people add somewhere between zero and negative value to the world around them when they spend additional time "working."
The more hours Betsy DeVos, Jared Kushner and Donald Trump Jr. devote to golfing and vacationing, the better. They'd do less damage that way.
A slightly different trickle-down pitch (one Romney, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and other prominent Republicans have also made) has to do with capital formation.
If corporate income taxes and capital gains taxes fell, then shareholders would get to keep a higher portion of corporate profits. That means investors might be willing to offer more capital to businesses, and thereby help them expand — which could grow jobs and wages.
This, too, is a difficult argument to swallow, at least in the current economy. By nearly every available metric, firms are not exactly starved for capital.
Long-term price-to-earnings ratios are high. Corporations are sitting on mountains of cash that they can't find good uses for.
Debt remains cheap, and businesses generally say they don't need more of it. The most recent National Federation of Independent Business economic trends survey found that only 3 percent of small-business owners said they could not satisfy all their borrowing needs. That's close to an all-time low.
Allowing a repatriation of profits held abroad through a tax holiday or a new, ultra-low corporate tax rate would likewise do little to stimulate corporate investment (or hiring). Last time we did that, the cash went mainly into stock buybacks.
Trump nonetheless alluded to this pitch in his Wednesday tax speech, which was, as expected, all bluster and few specifics.
The bulk of Trump's tax-cut speech, though, involved a relatively new pitch: an incoherent screed about trade.
"We must reduce the tax rate on American businesses so they keep jobs in America, create jobs in America, and compete for workers right here in America, the America we love," he proclaimed.
Trump essentially argued that U.S. taxes — and not, say, wages or other input costs — are driving firms to invest and hire abroad rather than here. But that argument would make sense only if the United States didn't tax worldwide earnings, as we currently do.
If you're an American company, it doesn't matter if you manufacture here or in China; your worldwide profits are still taxed in America, at least at the point when you try to return money to shareholders.
Trump clearly knows this because he also complained about worldwide taxation in his speech.
Granted, there's a lot of uninvested cash sitting abroad, not yet returned to shareholders, that corporations are not currently paying taxes on. But if those corporations brought that money home today to build a factory or hire more American workers, they could already deduct those costs and ultimately wipe out the tax bills on the income they brought back in. Regardless of what the tax rate is.
Every quarter Apple could always send less money to Ireland and build more facilities in the United States. U.S. corporate income-tax rates don't change that calculation.
Not that any of this matters a whit to our Marketer in Chief. He's seen the other sales pitches fall flat, so naturally he'd try to shoehorn an amorphous tax plan into his usual, all-purpose policy pitch: America good, foreigners bad, now give me what I want.

Inflammatory response of brain cells - as indicated by a molecular imaging technique - could tell researchers more about why certain neurologic disorders, such as migraine headaches and psychosis in schizophrenic patients, occur and provide insight into how to best treat them, according to two studies published in the November issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine. By using positron emission tomography (PET) - a noninvasive molecular imaging technique - researchers were to able to identify neuroinflammation, which is marked by activated microglia cells (brain cells that are responsive to injury or infection of brain tissue) in patients with schizophrenia and in animal models with migraines.
Internationally renowned experts in schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, researchers and clinicians, patients and their families and friends will gather in Pittsburgh to discuss the latest in research and clinical advances at the 26th Annual Pittsburgh Schizophrenia Conference to be held Friday, Nov. 13, at the Sheraton Station Square, Pittsburgh. With more than 400 attendees expected this year, the conference is the nation's longest-running scientific meeting devoted to exploring the latest research findings related to schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. Schizophrenia is a chronic severe and disabling brain disorder that affects 3.
If humans are genetically related to chimps, why did our brains develop the innate ability for language and speech while theirs did not? Scientists suspect that part of the answer to the mystery lies in a gene called FOXP2. When mutated, FOXP2 can disrupt speech and language in humans. Now, a UCLA/Emory study reveals major differences between how the human and chimp versions of FOXP2 work, perhaps explaining why language is unique to humans. Published Nov. 11 in the online edition of the journal Nature, the findings provide insight into the evolution of the human brain and may point to possible drug targets for human disorders characterized by speech disruption, such as autism and schizophrenia.
In a new study, researchers at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital (The Neuro), McGill University have found an important mechanism involved in setting up the vast communications network of connections in the brain. A signaling pathway involving interactions between a schizophrenia-linked gene product, Calcineurin, and a transcription factor known as Nuclear Factor in Activated T-cells (NFAT) contributes to the connectivity at nerve cell (neuron) junctions or synapses and affects the extent of nerve cell projections or dendritic branches, in the visual system. The results of this study, published in the journal Neuron, may bring hope to adults suffering from brain injuries and offer the possibility of early diagnosis, treatments and therapies for schizophrenia, autism or other developmental disorders where abnormal neurological wiring is thought to occur early in life.
Researchers at MIT's Picower Institute for Learning and Memory have found that rats use a mental instant replay of their actions to help them decide what to do next, shedding new light on how animals and humans learn and remember. The work will appear in the Aug. 27 issue of the journal Neuron. "By understanding how thoughts and memories are structured, we can gain insight into how they might be disrupted in diseases and disorders of memory and thought such as Alzheimer's and schizophrenia, " said study author Matthew A. Wilson, the Sherman Fairchild Professor of Neuroscience at the Picower Institute. "This understanding may lead to new methods of diagnosis and treatment.


For this project I designed a pair of Japanese-style sliding shoji doors -- as well as adjustable shelves -- for an existing built-in storage unit in a clients' master bedroom. The doors slide side-to-side and can be lifted out for easy cleaning. The paper is a tough synthetic shoji paper.
I build shoji and other types of Japanese screens for different types of installation. Please inquire about other types of Japanese shoji and screen work that I do.

It's a new year and you've set your fat loss goal, but if don't have a fat loss workout plan, that goal is going to be difficult to achieve. If you've read Fat X 101 before, you know that I prefer to refrain from using the term "weight loss" and prefer the more specific term "fat loss". For more on that check out my article "Fat Loss is What You Want". Anyhow, let's get to the point, you want to lose body fat, and the best way to accomplish that is with a workout plan.
If you're new to fitness, you're probably going to hear a bunch of myths and misconceptions about losing body fat and becoming more fit. Ask the general public what the best way to set up a fat loss workout plan is, and the uninformed or misinformed will quickly jump into spitting out advice on how cardio is the best way to lose fat and get fit. Another big myth that you're likely to hear when inquiring on the best way to set up a fat loss workout plan is; high rep training is the best way to lose fat.
Both cardio, and high rep training have their places in a fitness and fat loss workout plan, but they, alone, are not the best way to lose body fat, nor are they the best methods to get fit. If fat loss, a leaner, more toned, fit and athletic you is what you are trying to achieve, boosting your metabolism and becoming more fit are going to be key factors, short and longterm.
Traditional cardio workouts (monotonous low intensity movement), and high rep training, are not the best ways to kick up your metabolism. Both of those methods can actually have a detrimental effect on fat loss and your metabolism, if you're not careful. For more on that read my article "Cardio Can Hurt Your Fat Burning Goals".
The most proven method to kick up your metabolism is to build and maintain lean body tissue (a.k.a muscle). Again, cardio, and high rep training are not going to accomplish that in the best and most efficient way. Resistance training (a.k.a weight training) on the other hand, especially in the lower rep ranges, definitely will!
Here's where things get a bit complicated, since I try to keep things simple here on Fat X 101, I'll just go ahead and cut to the chase. Resistance training will help build and maintain muscle, which in turn will boost or keep your metabolism boosted. But, there's a good way to set up you resistance training (weight training) program, and then there's a best way to set up you resistance training program if you want to target fat loss and overall fitness.
The best way to utilize resistance training (weight training) in a fitness and fat loss workout plan is to do multi-joint exercises in circuit fashion, therefore not only getting in a resistance or weight training workout, but also kicking up your heart rate, and getting in a cardio workout at the same time. Setting up your fat loss workout plan in this way, will not only kick up your metabolism, but, it will also kick up your overall fitness level. Both good things if you want to lose fat fast and keep it off. Fat loss follows fitness! Get more fit, build some lean body tissue (muscle), boost your metabolism and the fat loss will follow!
My Fat X Program is set up exactly in that method. I included easy to learn, multi-joint exercises that have been proven to work and wrapped them in a more advanced circuit training method for better, more efficient results. You get in a metabolism boosting workout, while at the same time working your cardiovascular system (cardio). An excellent combination for overall fitness and fat loss!
Whether you do my Fat X Program, or you come up with your own fat loss workout plan, remember to track your workouts. Tracking your workouts will guarantee that your long term fitness and fat loss plan succeeds. If you're doing the Fat X Program, use the workout manual to write in your numbers. If you're doing your own workout program, find a method of tracking your workouts. Tracking your workouts and improving on them is one of the most important factors and one of the best ways to make a workout plan successful longterm. Otherwise you will spin your wheels, putting in the same effort or even worse, each time you do that workout. I see people making that mistake on a consistent basis. It's no wonder why they have a hard time getting results, even though they seem to be putting in the time at the gym.
Good luck to you on accomplishing your fitness and fat loss goals! Feel free to e-mail me with any questions, or better yet, post them on the Fat X 101 Facebook, and I'll answer them as quick as I can.

China threatens retaliation over UK TV license cancellation
Wang Wenbin
FILE- In this Thursday, Feb. 4, 2021 file photo, people wearing face masks to protect against the spread of the coronavirus, walk past the CCTV Headquarters building, the home of Chinese state-run television network CCTV and its overseas arm CGTN, ... more >
By Associated Press - Friday, February 5, 2021
BEIJING (AP) - China on Friday threatened to retaliate after British regulators stripped China's state TV channel of its U.K. broadcasting license, a decision based on technical issues but rooted in complaints about its role in persecuting critics of the ruling Communist Party.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin told reporters that British media watchdog Ofcom had acted on "political grounds based on ideological bias, politicizing technical issues, seriously harming the survival of Chinese media and severely interfering with normal exchanges between the two countries."
"We urge the U.K. to immediately stop political manipulation and correct its mistakes. China reserves the right to make the necessary response to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese media," Wang said at a daily briefing.
In its decision issued Thursday, Ofcom said it revoked the U.K. license for China Global Television Network, or CGTN, an international English-language satellite news channel, because of a lack of editorial control and links to China's Communist Party.
CGTN had been available on free and pay TV in the U.K. Regulators started looking into the station after receiving a complaint from human rights group Safeguard Defenders that called for an investigation into its ownership.
Ofcom is also continuing to investigate a number of additional complaints that the station violated rules on fairness and accuracy, including the broadcasting of alleged forced confessions by a former British Consulate employee in Hong Kong and a British corporate investigator and longtime government critic, Gui Minhai, whose whereabouts are now unknown.
In a tweet, Gui's daughter Angela Gui said, "Finally, five years after first airing a forced confession by my father #GuiMinhai in the UK, Ofcom has revoked CGTN's license to broadcast. Thank you @SafeguardDefend and everyone else who's filed complaints."
Ofcom's decision adds to friction between Britain and China, already strained by U.K. efforts to address allegations of human rights abuses against the Uighur minority in Xinjiang and widen residency rights for Hong Kongers.
Wang gave no details on how China would retaliate, but the British Broadcasting Corp., which is only available in some hotels, businesses and residential compounds for foreigners in China, could become a target.
The Foreign Ministry initially responded to word of the loss of CGTN's license with renewed criticism of the BBC, specifically a Jan. 29 report on COVID-19 in China, calling it "typical fake news" and demanding a public apology. It said "China reserves the right to take further measures." The BBC said it stood by its reporting and rejected the "unfounded accusations."
In his defense of CGTN, Wang said the British knew all along about its ties to China's ruling party and accused London of double standards in regulating the media. Wang said CGTN always adhered to regulations and upheld the principles of "objectivity, impartiality, truthfulness and accuracy in news reporting."
"China is a socialist country led by the Communist Party. The British side has been well aware of the nature of the Chinese media," Wang said.
"The British side knew this clearly from the first day CGTN broadcasted in the U.K. 18 years ago. That the U.K. now makes an issue of Chinese media's nature and obstructing CGTN in its broadcasting is purely political manipulation," he said.
CGTN has been at the forefront of the party's bid to seize the narrative from Western news media about human rights in China and its aggressive military and diplomatic moves amid a hardening of attitudes toward China in countries from South Korea to Canada.


The Australian Greens will propose a phase-out of thermal coal exports by 2030 in a significant strengthening of the party's existing policy, which has focused on banning new mines.
The Greens' climate change spokesman, Adam Bandt, will outline the shift on Friday in a speech to the United Firefighters Union in Hobart. The speech focuses on the growing risk of wildfires as a consequence of climate change.
Against the backdrop of catastrophic destruction in California, Bandt will tell his audience Australia's biggest chance of avoiding climate catastrophe is by ceasing coal exports.
Under the reworked Greens policy, by 2030, it will no longer be legal to dig, burn or ship thermal coal. The proposal includes maximum penalties for breaches of the prohibition of seven years imprisonment, and hefty fines.

The Intellectual Property Office is asking for evidence which might influence future policy.
The IPO said it wanted to answer some basic questions like how much British businesses spend on protecting their intellectual property, how much patents help push research spending, which firms make money out of intellectual property without using patents and whether trade marks help innovation and growth.
The bureaucrats are also working with German researchers to compare different international approaches to intellectual property protection.
Baroness Wilcox, intellectual property minister said: "Britain must have an intellectual property system that encourages innovation and is internationally competitive. The research programme will improve our understanding of intellectual property and its economic value."
The IPO, which recently swallowed the responsibilities of the Strategic Advisory Board for Intellectual Property Policy, will also consider the role of European Union copyright levies and look at firms using alternatives to patents to protect their property.

A fashion shoot was planned with a model weeks in advance. And we were counting down to the actual shoot day. But days before the shoot, there were signs that indicate that the shoot might not proceed as planned. First, she was busy with both school and modeling assignments. Then she requested to 'downgrade' the shoot from an actual shoot to a test shoot (difference is that we're not going all out in terms of hiring MUA, bringing all the attires). Finally, on the eve of the shoot, she went down with a bad diarrhoea. Cancellation seemed imminent.
So I quickly looked through my waiting list of models and see which ones are suited for the theme and location. Challenge is: I only have their email address, and asking them via email might be too slow. I had to also consider the possibility that more than one might agree, then I would have to reject those unselected again. I needed a more immediate kind of communication, like IM or mobile phone, to discuss the last-minute arrangements quickly.
Grace was lucky. She happened to be online at the right time. Grace was lucky, she was available and was willing to start the shoot at 7.30am.
I was lucky. I got the shots.
Special thanks to Ervine for giving me new perspectives in processing my photos.
i love these shots the most out of all your photoshoots i've seen so far!
what sort of room/place was this?
