Government shuts down: Many federal agencies affected, students safe for now
BY KEVIN CUSHINGBERRY JR., EDITOR IN CHIEF
As the clock struck midnight on Oct. 1, with the House Republicans and Senate Democrats still unable to come to an agreement on the fiscal budget, the government shut down.
Only those federal workers whose jobs are necessary to protect against an imminent threat to life or property were allowed to work through the shutdown. As a result, more than 800,000 federal workers were furloughed.
The federal government also stopped funding some of its programs including WIC, a program for pregnant women and young children. WIC funding impacts 9 million people per month, according to its government website.
Most students have not been directly affected by the shutdown because budgets for federal pell grants and students loans had already been solidified for the 2013-14 academic year.
Financial aid adviser Roshunda Jackson said that although many students received their FAFSA awards on time, those selected for tax verification have been unable to contact the IRS to get their tax transcripts during the government shutdown.
Also, students applying for federal loans prior to the spring semester won't be able to receive them if the budget hasn't been passed.
TRiO/Student Support Services program coordinator Shatremeyia Porter said services in her department will continue because TRiO is funded every two years and the money has already been appropriated.
"Students in the program won't be affected," she said. "The shutdown would have to last until our funds run out in order to have an impact on us."
Likewise, Upward Bound is funded every five years, so staff members said their students won't be immediately affected either.
DCCCD Chancellor Wright Lassiter sent out a district-wide email on Oct. 2 detailing the effects the government shutdown could have on the colleges. Although the district does not rely on federal funding, he said his staff is monitoring how the shutdown might impact financial aid and grant programs in the future.
"We all hope that this government shutdown will not last long since we do not want to see further damage to the American economy and its services to the nation's population," he said. "Whatever the outcome, we will be prepared, with support from our governing board, to take any required actions."
Federal offices that have been fully or partially closed include the Department of Education, Department of Labor, Department of Transportation, Environmental Protection Agency, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Executive Office of the President for special functions, Federal Trade Commission, General Services Administration, Treasury and Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Postal Service, federal endowments and foundations, museums such as the George W. Bush Museum and Library in Dallas and the Smithsonian.
The last government shutdown happened under President Bill Clinton in December 1995 and lasted 21 days. Government professor Stacey Jurhree said the country has changed greatly since that time.
"The big difference between when the government shut down under Clinton and now is unemployment was under 5 percent," he said. "Under [President Barack] Obama, it's 7 percent."
Another major difference, he said, is the political climate.
"Bill Clinton was able to get with the Republicans and compromise," he said. "Obama's not budging, and he's not dealing with people that will compromise with him."
Jurhree said many professors assume they will not be affected by the shutdown because their salaries aren't provided directly by the federal government.
However, he said other factors could come into play.
"We're paid by the county, but any tentacle of the feds is going to be affected," he said. "If we're still shut down four months from now, students won't get financial aid. If there aren't students in class, then we can't teach."
Obama called top congressional leaders to the White House on Monday in an attempt to avoid a U.S. debt default that would rock the economy. However, the
White House later announced that the meeting was postponed "to allow leaders in the Senate time to continue making important progress."
On the Senate Floor, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid expressed confidence that a compromise would be reached sometime this week.
"I'm very optimistic that we will reach an agreement that's reasonable in nature this week to reopen the government, pay the nation's bills, and begin long-term negotiation to put our country on sound fiscal footing," he said.


Dr. Brown catches up on the weekend events and shares some concerns about sensationalistic, false teachings. Listen live here 2-4 pm EST, and call into the show at (866) 348 7884!
60 Questions Christians Ask About Jewish Beliefs and Practices by Dr. Brown: Dr. Michael Brown answers sixty common questions about Jewish people and Jewish culture. He also addresses questions Christians have about their own relationship to the Old Testament Law.
The End of the American Gospel Enterprise by Dr. Brown: This book is for: Everyone hungry for more of God… Everyone jealous for the true glory of God… Everyone who knows that something great is missing from the American Church.
I soooo look forward to this on the air clarity. I just made some mention of some of this in the Gospel Definitions comments section. Let us look to and discover the full stature of the One New Man being formed in Christ, and move away from the vanity of false Hebrew Roots teaching. Let the Jew be the Jew, and the Gentile the Gentile, as forming One New Man in Christ.
Jabez, may it be so!
Dr. Brown — love the show up here in Connecticut.
Question – who sings "shake the nations, change the world" ? Is there any album I can buy somewhere?
I can't believe I missed this show. I will have to catch up. I've been in discussions with new friends I've met that have been following some of these Hebrew Roots teachings.
At the end of our discussions we have prayed that God would not allow us to be deceived. I thank you again for your ministry and the resources you provide. Your resources have helped bring some of our friends back to truth.
I hope that one day a debate with a Hebrew Roots teacher comes about. I believe that will be very fruitful for many.
I'm sure you can get the cd somewhere…check his website.
I am a big fan of many of the HRM teachings. I was listening to one of Dr Browns "thoroughly Jewish thurday" podcast on keeping passover in which he said something like "Gentiles have never been required to keep any of the Jewish dietary laws." I believe Dr Brown is clearly mistaken with this statement as three of the four things commanded to those who were coming to God from AMONG the Gentiles in Acts 15 were indeed dietary laws.
I am interested in more teaching regarding the Hebrew Roots and Torah Observant Messianic Jews.

deadly semantics
"People get uptight about the most bizarre things," Jeff said, nodding, as I showed him the pictures. I agreed.
I'd been zeroing in on a sweet little parking space at the store when the battered blue Dodge had caught my eye. I tossed my car into 'park' after whipping around the row, and had my camera ready before I walked by the car.
While I'm legally allowed to photograph cars, I prefer to do it as inobtrusively as possible.
Back of car, 2003
by domesticat.
I had the lens cap removed and the camera turned on before I even came in view of the car. Thus prepared, the actual process of taking two photos took less than four seconds. There was plenty of light; I didn't even bother to check the photos to see if they were acceptable. I just shoved the camera back in its little bag, turned, and went into the store to do my errands.
You can determine a lot of things about a person from what bumper stickers they place on a car. Most folk don't take bumper stickers lightly; the sayings and emblems they place on a car are likely to represent their most strongly-held beliefs. Owners don't put "I like ice cream" or "Blue is my favorite color" stickers on cars. They put things like "Re-Elect Gore in 2004" or "One Nation Under GOD."
Bumper stickers are our casual way of stating beliefs too forceful to be bandied about in most polite conversation. (For those of you who ask, the sticker on my car is "Go away or I will replace you with a very small shell script.")
I'm thinking that Mr. Blue Dodge is a wee bit wrapped up in semantics. Anyone whose most strongly held beliefs end up leading him to put up a bumper sticker that says "W.W.J.D.? He'd Use His Own Name - YAHSHUA!" (and another that says "HalleluYAH Means Praise His Name")....I'm thinking we've got some semantics issues at work here.
I mean, shoot me if I'm wrong here, but if you're going to get real cranky about how a name is spelled or written, shouldn't you just go back to the original Hebrew letters and be done with it? Isn't there a certain amount lost in the transliteration from Hebrew letters (which, if I remember correctly, don't indicate vowels) to Latin ones (which do)? Yikes.
Call me theist, but I've always favored the idea of a Creator intelligent enough to know when it's being talked to, no matter what name we call it. I have trouble getting terribly upset about such things, but, at the same time, I know a lot of other people take this sort of thing with a deadly seriousness that leaves me just bewildered.
Take, for instance, the Pledge of Allegiance. Granted, I dislike the actual concept of a Pledge of Allegiance; it always had the distinct odor of Heil Jackboot about it, what with requiring kids to stand up in rows in class to recite words they don't understand while staring at a flag, and all. To me, civilian acts of informed voting and governmental criticism speak more of appreciating one's citizenship than any recited pledge ever could.
- but, in the midst of that pledge, is a sticky little two-word phrase that riles up a good bit of folk, and I'm not so certain that I blame them. I like a rollicking argument over semantics as much as the next guy, but I draw the line at dropping phrases like that into laws (or on money). Cementing specific religious phrases like that one into law will do nothing but hurt those whose beliefs fall outside those whose particular version won the day.
The standard Christian response I've seen to complaints about the "under God" phrase is, "But everyone knows what the phrase means! No one should be offended by a reference to God!"
Hate to break it to them, but that phrase, no matter how trivial, is an endorsement of a religion - Christianity. If we're all talking about the same God, and it doesn't matter how it gets referred to, perhaps we Americans could change to a slightly more inclusive version of the Pledge that would alienate different religious groups on different days of the week.
(See this page, the section marked 'the stand taken', for far better thoughts on this subject than my tired brain is likely to craft tonight.)
Perhaps on Mondays we could say "under Goddess," and on Fridays "under Allah." After all, it shouldn't matter - it's just semantics, right?
I'm guessing the guy driving the blue Dodge wouldn't agree.
Aren't the freedoms of religion and expression just ... grand?

Oh, I agree with you so! I am a rebel from way back, being one of the only kids in my high school who refused to stand or recite the pledge of allegiance on command. As for the Under God, I am glad it's out.

I just always "forgot" to say those two words. It's amazing how easy it is to always stumble on that one little phrase. *innocent look* I agree with you, though, Ames.

Actually, I just refused to say the pledge for the last 6 years of school. I stood there and made up my own pledge, or thought of destroying the school, or whatever occurred to me.

Ya know, "under God" wasn't even in the original draft, which was written by a Baptist minister. It was Congress, in the '50s, that put it in there. And it offends me. Always has. I've seen that car around town. I love extremist Christian loonies, even as they make me feel bad about my vocation ... ;)

Am I the only one who went to a public school and had to recite the Lord's Prayer at the start of each day? Only for the first couple of grades, but still.
That really makes me want to vomit. Thanks, Brad.
We were spared that indignity here in Bureaucracia by a Supreme Court decision several decades ago. Now that we are under the administration of the fundie jihad, this is likely to be eroded. I wouldn't be surprised to see some nut try to force communion on kids during recess.
Won't happen ... I think *I* would shoot Ashcroft first.

Well, the thing is is that it's not all semantics. In fact that is why when you drive down to the core of most religions, they are different. The best way I can attempt to describe it is that the road or path you take does not get you to the same destination even though in concept they may seem the same. Ravi Zacharias is a good Christian Apologist who explains this with much better clarity than I could ever attempt to. With regards to the pledge, things on our money etc, I don't believe pushing phrases or views down peoples throats is appropriate but people with power do. I don't think parts of our history should be altered though to satisfy PC'ness. I guess there are always exceptions to the rule though.
On 2 Mar 2003 , jeffie said...
"I don't believe pushing phrases or views down peoples throats is appropriate but people with power do." What exactly are you trying to say? I often find myself "arguing toward the center" on a lot of issues. In my view, truth usually lies somewhere between the extremes. Sometimes, though, you have to actually SAY something when you say something. Do you really believe that using a position of power to impose beliefs on others is wrong? Then don't water it down by saying "but it happens" and dropping it. "I don't think parts of our history should be altered though to satisfy PC'ness" You know, I've heard this argument before. It's exactly the same one used by people in this state who wanted to keep on the books a useless law which prohibited interracial marriage. It's the rallying cry of people in several southern states who want to keep the Confederate flag flying over their capitols. It's amazing how concerned with "history" people get when "PC" concepts like freedom of religion and that pesky "all men are created equal" idea start getting inconvenient. There are a lot of things about my country's history of which I am very proud. On the other hand, there are some chapters that are downright shameful. NEVER let it be said that I think we should forget about any of them (lest we fall into that trap in George Santayana's famous quote). However, continuing a practice merely because of "history" (A.K.A. "We've always done it that way.") is a cop-out at best and at worst is a pitiful excuse used to hide much more devisive motives. Am I going to be leading a march on Washington to strike the word "God" from our currency? No. I don't think it's my fight. However, I will NOT let that previous comment claim the high ground of historical significance when I think the argument against it is at least as significant and historical. Political correctness has nothing to do with it.
What I am trying to say is that forcing your views upon someone else is wrong. Forcing people to recite the Lord's Prayer is wrong. But again, as someone said, they were required to do it. I don't understand how saying "but it happens" is watering it down. Clarify please. As for our history, my comment was more directed towards elements of history including words in the pledge etc. I'm not an advocate of practicing antiquated laws. Times change, society changes, etc and those provide the basis for the exceptions I was speaking of. I value other things more than the fight over the pledge of alegiance. I believe that corporate interests controlling politics, pre-emptive strikes against Iraq, and Ashcroft's war on personal rights are more important. Forgive me but my comment was not claiming high ground because of history. There are a lot of battles I value more than bitching about the Ten Commandments. This country is supposed to be a free one and people will choose to fight for whatever is important to them be it abortion rights or a Confederate Flag. It might not be that way forever and if peoples concerns are about systematically removing every reference to God in state-related things, then so be it. Having it removed is not more important to me than Ashcroft's assult on other freedoms.
Okay...this is going to be an ugly long comment, and I'm probably going to lose most people in it...but I feel strongly enough about this to chase this rabbit tonight. "I don't understand how saying "but it happens" is watering it down. Clarify please." Fair enough. Your statement "I don't believe pushing phrases or views down peoples throats is appropriate" expressed a fairly clear opinion. Since you took the time to post it, a logical inference to make is that you feel strongly about this and wanted to express the strength of that feeling...maybe with the intent of encouraging others to share in that view. However, you then finish that up with "but people with power do." This, to me, implies an expressing of resignation to the inevitable. The reason I say this waters down your point is that you have a statement that starts out with a clearly expressed feeling about something you believe is wrong...then seems to immediately give up on that feeling by resigning to the fact that the wrong is going to happen anyway. *shrug* What is that point of pointing out that it's wrong if you then turn around and resign yourself to the fact that it's going to happen? Both parts of that statement are valid, but taken together they just don't seem to have a clear point. "As for our history, my comment was more directed towards elements of history including words in the pledge etc." And that's exactly what I responded to. In the context of the possibility of changing the pledge and the words on our currency, you wrote, "I don't think parts of our history should be altered though to satisfy PC'ness." Let's break that one down: "I don't think parts of our history..." ...where "parts of our history" refer to the pledge and the motto on our currency... "...should be altered..." ...alterations meaning removing references to God... "...to satisfy PC'ness." ...implying that the motivations for removing these references to God are motivated by political correctness. I think I understood you perfectly the first time. You believe that the pledge and the motto on our currency represent part of our historical heritage. Fair enough. However, you then use that claim of historical heritage as the reason for not wanting them to change...and you simultaneously dismiss the reasons for changing them as being "PC". My arguments are that history is not a good enough reason and that other people here have discussed valid motivations that have nothing to do with political correctness. I simply provided examples of other times this has been done. I did not mean to imply that you agree with those examples. Here's the simple version: Stop and think before you call other people's motivations "PC". Their reasons may be just as good as yours.
Jeffie, I appreciate your clarification. You are right about feeling strongly about feeling strongly about the "forcing views" opinion but it is exactly that. I am sharing an opinion without the expectation that it is going to change the world. I also do not believe the majority of the group I was expressing this opinion to were the ones guilty of said offense. With regards to PC'ness, the motivations may not be for Political Correctness but that is their effect. "We of the Politically Correct philosophy believe in increasing a tolerance for a DIVERSITY of cultures, race, gender, ideology and alternate lifestyles." is one attempt at defining PC. This argument can run around in circles, I think everyone should be sensitive to others beliefs and feelings but not take it to the extreme in which there is an attempt to erradicate any reference to any religion in any text of the "state". As I said before, there are more urgent issues in *my* opinion that need to be addressed. As for my simplified version: I express my point of view, you express yours. If I think the majority of the reason for change like that is PC then so be it, my reason like you said may be just as good as theirs. I encourage people to share their reasons. This same conversation can go on regarding the issue of Affirmative Action.
I'm not going at this in terms of semantics and all that. I'm a would-be pastor [/me looks up and sees the 2002 entry, laughs, and goes on], and simply put, I don't mind "under God" being excised. Congress stuck it in there in '54, and I would have disagreed with it then. I'm also one of the biggest advocates against prayer in schools. I listened--really, truly listened--to the invocation at my college graduation. I wanted to puke, and I was thinking of Matthew 6 as I listened to it. But that's perhaps irrelevant.

Geof - I was a little chary of checking the entry list, mostly because I remember ... all too plainly ... what was going on in my life exactly a year ago. The 'jazzy Jess' post isn't as difficult to read as some that follow it. Sometimes even just looking at a calendar is too much.
Yeah, I know. But it did clearly state my vocation, I guess, and maybe casual readers of cat.net don't know me ... ;)

He's wrong, anyway. Jesus' real name was YEHSHUA, not YAHSHUA. Short "e", not long "a". (I do read Hebrew, as a matter of fact.) YAH does mean "God", though; it's one of a couple of different words that does. Hallelujah means "Praise God", roughly.
On 3 Mar 2003 , Erica said...
I agree with you, Amy. I vaguely remember a daily prayer in the earliest grades, and our national anthem (O Canada) has it's own reference to God; we had to sing that everyday throughout primary school. We also had bible class for several years.

I am a teacher, I have to say the pledge every day and then observe one minute of silence. Most kids dont' get the meaning of the pledge and just pass notes during the moment of silence. You can't legislate certain things - patriotism and religion among them - it just won't work. I wish our government would see that.
*Have to*? Where do you teach?

Yesterday CAMERA noted the misrepresentation, which aired in NPR's "Cities Project" report on Beirut Oct. 2 ("Ghosts Of The Past Still Echo In Beirut's Fragmented Neighborhoods"). The report about the fragmented neighborhoods of Beirut was also marred by glaring omissions, including the failure to note discriminatory Lebanese laws and policies which ensure the continuing poverty and segregation of Palestinians born in Lebanon.
Regarding the Shatila misrepresentation, the Israeli Kahan commission found that Israeli figures held "indirect responsibility" for not anticipating that the Phalangists would massacre the Palestinians. A federal jury in New York concured with this conclusion. The jury found that Time Magazine defamed Ariel Sharon with false information when they claimed he "consciously intended" the killing of civilians in the camps.
CAMERA continues to urge NPR to broadcast an on air correction for those countless listeners who heard the original misleading report and did not visit the Web site to see the clarification. We also continue to urge a clarification of the transcript available online.

De Steenweg is een straat in de binnenstad van de Nederlandse stad Utrecht die in de middeleeuwen is ontstaan. Anno 2015  is de Steenweg een drukbezochte winkelstraat.

Destijds was deze straat de eerste verharde weg in Utrecht na de Romeinen. Ter onderscheid van de reeds uit de Romeinse tijd daterende Zadelstraat die toen Steenweg heette, werd de huidige Steenweg Nieuwe Steenweg genoemd. De huidige Steenweg bevond zich in het hart van de middeleeuwse handelswijk Stathe. Uit die periode dateert de in deze straat gelegen Buurkerk, waar sinds 1984 het Museum Speelklok is gehuisvest.

Vermoedelijk loopt de Steenweg evenwijdig aan de voormalige loop van de Rijn door de binnenstad. Het deel van de Rijn ter hoogte van de Steenweg werd volgens die vermoedens tussen de Stadhuisbrug en de Bakkerbrug omgevormd tot de huidige Oudegracht. De lintbebouwing van huizen aan het water stond destijds verder landinwaarts en wel langs de Steenweg. Met het onder meer ophogen van de oever en het bouwen van nieuwe huizen op het opgehoogde achterperceel met daarvoor gelegen de werfkelders en werf, grenzen de panden aan de noordzijde van de Steenweg niet meer aan het water. Een aantal steegjes van de Steenweg naar de Oudegracht dateert nog uit de tijd van Stathe toen de paadjes nog tussen de percelen naar de glooiende wateroever liepen. Rond 1200 was het oostelijk deel van de Steenweg marktgebied. Omstreeks 1400 was dat gebied uitgebreider met in 1427 de regulering dat boter, kaas en eieren uitsluitend nog in de Steenweg verhandeld mochten worden. Een voorloper van het Utrechtse stadhuis, het Schoonhuis, was aan de Steenweg/Massegast gevestigd. Tussen de Steenweg en de Oudegracht lag in vroegere eeuwen een buurtje dat bekendstond als de Snippenvlucht.

Nasty Bluetooth flaw hits billions of devices — what to do now
By Paul Wagenseil
last updated 21 May 2020
Apple, Pixel, Lenovo, HP devices are all vulnerable to wireless attack

A flaw in an older version of the Bluetooth protocol lets hackers pair their devices with yours, potentially leaving billions of devices open to attack. Affected devices may include, but are not limited to, iPhones, Pixels, Samsung Galaxy phones, Lenovo, Apple and HP laptops, and Sennheiser, Philips and Plantronics headphones.
The flaw permits what its finders, all European academic researchers, call "Bluetooth Impersonation Attacks," or "BIAS" for short. An attacker's device can impersonate a device that has already been paired with your device, then connect automatically.
The best Android antivirus apps: Keep your phone or tablet clean
Plus: Hacked Zoom installers taking over PCS — protect yourself now
You'll want to update the software and/or firmware on your Bluetooth device ASAP, although whether that fixes things depends on your device's manufacturer.
Once connected, the attacker can steal information, or even take control of your phone, tablet, laptop or headphones — and can do the same to a device that has previously been paired with yours.
"After we disclosed our attack to industry in December 2019, some vendors might have implemented workarounds for the vulnerability on their devices," the researchers said in a blog post (opens in new tab) yesterday (May 19).
"So, the short answer is: If your device was not updated after December 2019, it is likely vulnerable. Devices updated afterwards might be fixed."
Here's a video, rather charmingly narrated by researcher Daniele Antonioli of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland, explaining how the attacks work.
Antonioli and his colleagues tested 31 devices directly and found them to be vulnerable to BIAS attacks. It's not clear whether any devices were tested and found not to be vulnerable, although the researchers hint that they could not find any gadgets that were completely safe.
"Our attacks work even when the victims are using Bluetooth's strongest security modes," their academic research paper (opens in new tab) said. "Our attacks target the standardized Bluetooth authentication procedure, and are therefore effective against any standard compliant Bluetooth device."
In other words, the paper said, "a single vulnerability in a security mechanism defined in the standard translates into billions of exploitable devices."
The only device that even partly protected itself was a Lenovo wireless mouse (opens in new tab) from 2015, which you can get on eBay for about $30.
Which devices are vulnerable to BIAS attacks?
Vulnerable smartphones and tablets included the Apple iPhone 8, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s, and the 2018 and 2010 iPads; the Google Pixel 3, Pixel 2 and Nexus 5; the Samsung Galaxy S5 mini, Galaxy J5 and the 2017 and 2016 models of the Galaxy J3; the Nokia 7, X6 and Lumia 530; the OnePlus 6; the LG K4; and the Motorola G3.
Laptops found to be vulnerable included the Lenovo ThinkPad L930, 3rd-generation ThinkPad X1, ThinkPad X230 and IdeaPad U430; the 2017 Apple MacBook Pro; and the HP ProBook 430 G3.
Other proven vulnerable devices included the Lenovo ThinkPad 41U5008 wireless mouse; the Sennheiser PXC 550, Plantronics Backbeat 903+ and Philips SHB7250 wireless headphones; and the Raspberry Pi 3B+ mini-board computer.
The researchers found the Bluetooth flaw in 30 different devices. But because the flaws lie not in the devices themselves, but rather in the embedded Bluetooth chips that are used across a range of brands and devices, hundreds more models from an unknown number of manufacturers are likely to be just as vulnerable.
The 28 Bluetooth chips in the proven vulnerable devices include the widely used Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, 835, 636, 630, 410, 210 and 200 systems-on-a-chip; the Samsung Exynos 7570, 3475 and 3470 SoCs; the Intel 9560, 8260, 7265, 6205 and 1280 wireless network adapters; and several Apple, Cypress and Cambridge Silicon Radio wireless chips.
For example, phones using the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, but not tested for this research, include the Samsung Galaxy S9, S9+ and Note 9; the LG G7, V35 and V40; and the Sony Xperia XZ2 and XZ3. It's also possible that other systems-on-a-chip that were not tested might be vulnerable to BIAS attacks.
Likewise, both the original iPad from 2010 and its descendant from 2018 were vulnerable, indicating that other iPad models might be as well.
Some fixes are already available
For its part, the Bluetooth Special Interests Group (opens in new tab), which oversees development of the wireless standard, said it was updating the Bluetooth core specifications to correct this flaw.
"The Bluetooth SIG is also broadly communicating details on this vulnerability and its remedies to our member companies and is encouraging them to rapidly integrate any necessary patches," the group's statement said. "As always, Bluetooth users should ensure they have installed the latest recommended updates from device and operating system manufacturers."
Antonioli's colleagues in this research were Nils Ole Tippenhauer of the CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security in Germany and Kasper Rasmussen of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Oxford. Their full research paper can be found here (opens in new tab).

An interesting article regarding long-term coffee consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease was just published in Circulation. The meta-analysis, which included 35 cohort studies and 1,283,685 participants, suggests that long-term coffee consumption (3 to 5 cups per day) is cardio-protective and reduces your risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Conclusions — A non-linear association between coffee consumption with CVD risk was observed in this meta-analysis. Moderate coffee consumption was inversely significantly associated with CVD risk, with the lowest CVD risk at 3 to 5 cups/d, and heavy coffee consumption was not associated with elevated CVD risk.
I found the following very interesting. If you smoke, you're more likely to be a heavy coffee drinker. Smoking, of course, greatly increases your CVD risk and thus diminishes the protective effect seen for coffee drinkers. Remove the confounders (smokers) and the picture becomes much clearer. Smoking bad. Exercise and physical activity good. Three to five cups of coffee on top of that might just do you a little better.
Second, smoking is likely to be an important confounder for the association between coffee consumption and CVD risk, and could bias the relative risks upwards. Heavy coffee consumption was associated with higher risk of CVD in age-adjusted analyses, but this is likely due to confounding by smoking. After adjustment for smoking and other covariates, heavy coffee was consumption was not significantly associated with CVD and the inverse association between moderate consumption and CVD became stronger.
Three to five cups of coffee per day is just about exactly where I fall. A full PDF of the paper is available from Circulation.

Psittacosis (Ornithosis) fact sheet
Fact sheets Currently selected
Psittacosis (also known as ornithosis) is a disease caused by the bacterium Chlamydia psittaci, carried by birds. Humans most commonly catch the disease by inhaling dust containing feathers, secretions and droppings from infected birds. Older people generally experience more severe illness. This disease can be treated with antibiotics.
What is Psittacosis?
Psittacosis is an uncommon disease that is usually transmitted to humans from birds. It is caused by a bacterium called Chlamydia psittaci.
The time from between human exposure to the bacteria and the development of symptoms varies from about five days to 4 weeks, but commonly 10 days.
People with psittacosis often develop:
a dry cough
In severe cases, pneumonia develops. Rare complications may include encephalitis (inflamation of the brain), or myocarditis (inflamation of the heart muscle).
How is it spread?
Infection usually occurs when a person inhales the bacteria, usually from dried droppings and mucous and feather dust from infected birds. People can also become infected by mouth-to-beak contact (kissing) with birds or by handling the feathers or tissues of infected birds.
Case reports suggest transmission may occur from contact with infected aborted material, abnormal equine placentas or symptomatic foals. Psittacosis can be spread from person to person or from other animals to humans but this happens very rarely.
All birds are susceptible to infection, but pet birds (for example: budgies, lorikeets and cockatiels) are most frequently involved in passing the infection to humans. Human cases associated with commercial poultry flocks are very rare in Australia and usually occur in poultry workers. Contact with wild birds and their droppings can also cause infection. Outbreaks have been linked to breathing in dust stirred up by lawn mowers after being contaminated by wild bird droppings.
People most at risk of infection with psittacosis include bird owners and/or breeders, pet shop employees, and persons whose occupation places them at risk for exposure (e.g. employees in poultry slaughtering and processing plants, veterinarians, veterinary technicians, laboratory workers, workers in avian quarantine stations, taxidermists, farmers, wildlife rehabilitators and zoo workers). Lawn mowing and gardening have also been associated with psittacosis during outbreaks.
How is it prevented?
Birds may carry the infection without signs of illness, however the infection can also be fatal to birds. Sick birds may have signs such as:
ruffled feathers
poor feeding
runny eyes or nose.
If in doubt, a vet should examine your bird. Infected birds respond to treatment in many instances but need to be isolated and placed on long course of antibiotic treatment and have their cages disinfected. Appropriate disinfectants include those with any of the following active ingredients:
quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) such as benzalkonium chloride
3% hydrogen peroxide
alcoholic iodine solutions
70% ethanol, or
a hospital grade disinfectant based on sodium hypochlorite. A 1:100 dilution (10mL/L) should be prepared immediately before use, and discarded at the end of each disinfection session.
Many disinfectants are respiratory irritants and should be used in a well-ventilated area. Avoid mixing disinfectants with any other product. Because birds can carry the organism without showing clinical signs it can be difficult to tell if a bird is infected, so to be safe:
only purchase birds from a licensed pet store or breeder.
wash your hands with soap and running water for 10 seconds before and after handling pet birds.
avoid kissing pet birds (mouth-to beak contact with).
house birds in clean cages of ample size that are lined with newspaper that is changed frequently.
do not allow droppings in cages to build up, dry up or become airborne.
wear a P2 respirator (available from pharmacies and hardware or other stores), and gloves and dampen any bird droppings or cages, before cleaning the case.
wash your hands after cleaning the cage.
take sick birds to a veterinarian as soon as possible.
wear a P2 respirator, gloves, disposable cap and protective clothing when dealing with infected birds. Instructions on how to properly fit a P2 respirator.
People dealing with aborted horse material should follow the advice in Primefact: biosecurity advice when handling aborted material from horses.
How is it diagnosed?
Your doctor can diagnose psittacosis by the symptoms, an examination and by doing some tests. Tests may include a chest x-ray, and taking some blood or respiratory samples to test for the bacteria.
Psittacosis is treated with antibiotics for a period of up to two weeks.
What is the public health response?
Laboratories must confidentially notify cases of psittacosis to the local public health unit. Public health unit staff will talk to the treating doctor and patient or carer to identify where the infection may have come from. Other people who may have been exposed to an infected bird should be made aware of the symptoms of infection. The bird should be treated and its environment cleaned with disinfectant to prevent further infections being spread to other people or other birds.

Wind burn?
Can't believe we've had 40 km winds again today - and rain, it's been dry and peaceful all week. We almost turned round and went straight back home again. But, fair weather builders we are not, well actually we are, but it's a long drive and there's the wasted diesel to think about.... so we took a deep breath and got on with it.
By the end of a very windy, cloudy, rainy day Dave thought his ears, neck and head were sunburnt, I think they're wind burnt.
Minor adjustments
Having had time to think about it and seeing the results of the shim-up we did last week, we've decided to change it. The beams are pinned in place so there's no moving them, but we can chomp out underneath them. It was a slow job, but we think it's worth it. Here's one of the outer edge joins chomped out and ready to be bashed down in place.
We've taken out the centre shiming which means the beams sit directly on top of the central beam - a much neater finish don't you think?
Onto the third set of beams
We'd already cut out the central notches last week. So all we had to do was haul them into place and roll them down the central beam into position. We marked exactly where they were to go, prepared the shimming for the outer edges and Dave flattened off the top of the central beam slightly. Next he drilled the holes to take the rebar.
Then he cut the rebar to the right lengths, smoothed off the edges....
....and bashed them into place. Well actually that's me bashing them in. Just wanted to prove that I work as well as man the camera.
Here's the third set of beams in place and finished. It's a long process, but now we've done it a few times we think we've got the hang of it. So hopefully the next 6 will go on a bit quicker - and without the wind please?

God is a Geek
James Bentley
Alwa's Legacy is a pleasant little game that does a lot of things right, but nothing spectacularly. It's fun, if a little forgettable.
Mitch Vogel
Alwa's Legacy is an excellent example of how to do a proper sequel; it takes everything that the original did well and builds on it, adds in a few new ideas of its own, and corrects the issues that were previously present. It may be a little on the short side, but Alwa's Legacy is the special sort of game that only comes around once in a great while, reminding you of the kind of quality that's possible when a dedicated crew puts in the time to make a polished and tightly designed final product. The best Metroidvania on Switch? That's entirely subjective, of course, but those of you who enjoy the genre owe it to yourselves to give this a try.
Nintendo Enthusiast
Andrew Gonzalez
Meroidvania games never get old. Unfortunately, there are plenty of games that do what Alwa's Legacy does, but better. That's not to say that this title from Elden Pixels is bad; it's quite good. The issue is that despite the responsive gameplay, inventive puzzles, and gorgeous pixel art, other games stand out more in the genre. You'll be done with Alwa's Legacy in a few hours, and I suspect most people won't revisit Zoe's adventure. She is a great protagonist placed in a game that doesn't have much staying power once the credits roll. With that being said, fans of the genre will find enjoyment trying to save the land of Alwa from the forces of evil, even if it's somewhat forgettable.
TechRaptor
Dylan Wilby
7.5 / 10.0
Alwa's Legacy is a love letter to the Metroidvania genre and 16-bit gaming in general. It's said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In that case, Igarashi will be blushing. It doesn't always make for a good game, though. Alwa's Legacy is an enjoyable and pretty adventure that's too formulaic to be truly memorable.

YAMAGUCHI --- "Japan's tallest swing" measuring 30 meters in height will return to action at least on weekends from mid-November through late December, according to the Yamaguchi Prefectural Government in western Japan.
The one-person swing, a main attraction at the now over Yamaguchi Yume Flower Expo in the prefectural capital of Yamaguchi, will operate from 9 a.m. through 4 p.m. on Saturdays, Sundays and national holidays between Nov. 17 and Dec. 24, according to the local government that organized the event. The ride will be dismantled after that.
During the expo from Sept. 14 through Nov. 4, the giant installation proved exceptionally popular with many people lining up for a turn to ride it. To accommodate more guests, the organizer extended the hours of operation by 3 1/2 hours from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. to 9:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. from Oct. 1. Yet many visitors went home without being able to use the swing and expressed hope that the attraction would remain operational even after the event.
"We'd be happy if people that lined up but could not ride the swing during the expo can use it this time around," said a prefectural official in charge.

Q: Changing Button ID with jQuery I have a form with a button whose initial value is 'Submit' and its ID is 'submit1' which is used by this:
$( function(){
$("#submit1").click(function () {
    alert("i got ");
    var dname = $("#dname").attr('value');
    if(jQuery.trim(dname).length == 0){
        $("#dnametd").append("Thissss is a required field.");
        $("#dname").keyup(function () {
            $("#requiredsp").remove();
        });
    }
    else{
var dname = $("#dname").attr('value');
var symptons = $("#symptons").attr('value');
$.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                data: "method=" +"addDisease"+"&dname="+dname+"&symptons="+symptons+"&status="+"y",
                url:  "classes/disease_type.class.php",
                success: function(){
                gettables();
                    }
               });
        $("#newformreg").hide( { direction: "left" }, 1500);
        $("#dname").val('');
        $("#symptons").val('');
    }

    });
});

Later on I get data from the server and I get those data in the above form with a hidden textbox for id and also I change the buttons value to Update and id to update as below.
  function doEdit(id){
        $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                data: "method=" +"getDisease"+"&did="+id,
                url:  "classes/disease_type.class.php",
                success: function(myVar){
                    $("#newformreg").show( { direction: "left" }, 1000);
                    arr3=myVar.split('%');
                    $('<input>').attr({type:'hidden',id:'did'}).appendTo("#insertForm");
                    $("#did").val(arr3[0]);
                    document.getElementById("dname").value=arr3[1];
                    //$("#dname").val(arr3[1]);
                    $("#symptons").val(arr3[2]);
                    $("#submit1").prop({id:'update',value:'Update'});
                    //document.getElementById("submit").value="Update";
                    //document.getElementById("submit").id="update";
                },
                });
                            }

            $( function() {
            $("#update").click(function () {
            var upvalue = $("#update").attr('value');
            alert("updateclick");
            alert(upvalue);
            var dnamee = document.getElementById("dname").value;

            if(jQuery.trim(dname).length == 0){
                $("#dnametd").append("Thissss is a required field.");
                $("#dname").keyup(function () {
                    $("#requiredsp").remove();
                });
            }
            else{
                alert("proper");
            var did = $("#did").attr('value');
            var dname = $("#dname").attr('value');
            var symptons = $("#symptons").attr('value');

                $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                data: "method=" +"updateDisease"+"&dname="+dname+"&symptons="+symptons+"&did="+did+"&doUpdate="+"edit",
                url:  "classes/disease_type.class.php",
                success: function(){
                    $("#msgdiv").addClass("msg success").add('Record Updated Successfuly');
                    }
               });
            }
        });
    alert("out");
           });

But even after doing this, whenever I click on update it executes the above submit button's function and doesn't update.
Also when my page opens it gives me above alert("out");. I don't understand what's going on.

A: You are using $("#update").click() to bind a click event, but the "update" id does not exist when the page loads for the first time.
In order to bind events dynamically you need to use the .on() method. look here for further details.
EDIT:
Your code is not writtent very well, I'd suggest you give the button one ID (#submitBtn) and give it a class of update/save. then you do this:
$("#submitBtn").click(){
    if ($(this).hasClass('save')){
    //do save code
    }
    else{
      //do update code
    }
}

A: alert("out");

is working fine.As you are using it in code
 $( function() { that means on ready.

January 11, 2017 military, Uncategorized, veterans.
Trump kept veterans advocates on pins and needles for weeks as speculation swirled that the pick would go to a VA outsider — Sarah Palin was thought to be in the running for a quick minute — who would seek to privatize the troubled department.
But on Wednesday Trump announced the nomination of Dr. David Shulkin, who has served as undersecretary of the VA's Veterans Health Administration since being appointed by President Barack Obama in 2015. Shulkin, who notably is the department's first non-veteran secretary, was formerly the president and CEO of Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City.
"After substantial public discussion regarding possible wholesale privatization of VA healthcare, we are relieved by today's announcement," said the advocacy group Veterans for Common Sense, which has long fought to force the VA to provide better mental health treatment.
Shulkin has expressed support for expanding private-care partnerships with VA hospitals, but his leadership is expected to keep the VA largely on its current course.
After the department was rocked by scandal related to long wait times, data fraud and poor medical care, Congress passed a bill in 2014 allowing some veterans to seek private care when waits at VA hospitals and clinics exceeded certain thresholds.
Some VA critics have pushed to dramatically increase the program, which some advocates feared would open up the program to include all veterans and lead inevitably to the massive health system's disintegration.
Further stoking the privatization fears, a former CEO of a group thought to be pushing for privatization, Pete Hegseth, had been floated as a potential Trump nominee to lead the VA. For its part, the group, Concerned Veterans for America, insists it is not seeking to dismantle the VA, but merely to reform it and offer more choice to veterans languishing on wait lists.
Other groups are taking a wait and see approach to Shulkin.
Shulkin also has something of a local connection: in response to the VA Inspector General's finding earlier this year that a Waco brain research program wasted taxpayer money, which the American-Statesman was first to reveal, Shulkin said that the VA had started a redesign of the entire VA supply chain and changed how it manages such high-tech medical equipment as the Waco MRI system.

Angry chief justice slams 'comical' charges over letter block
Jailed chief justice Abdulla Saeed on Monday slammed the "comical" charges against him over allegedly impeding the functioning of the state, describing the entire trial "arbitrary" designed to "frame him."
Chief justice Saeed is facing four separate charges which includes terrorism after being accused in the plot to overthrow the government.
The island nation has been embroiled in fresh political turmoil after the Supreme Court on February 1 ordered the immediate release of jailed political leaders including self-exiled former president Mohamed Nasheed.
President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom on February 5 had declared state of emergency after his last ditch attempt to convince the top court to revoke the order failed, purged the Supreme Court by arresting two judges and the remaining political leaders and ultimately had the order revoked.
Less than a day after the arrest of the two judges, the remaining three judges rescinded its ruling to release the political leaders referring to the concerns raised by president Yameen in the letters he had sent to the chief justice hours before state of emergency was declared.
The chief justice has been charged for blocking the receipt of the letters by ordering the Government E-Letter Management system (GEMS) be disabled.
During the final pre-trial hearing the chief justice insisted that he was unaware that the system had been down. The defence argued that the charges were in clear violation of the penal code and the criminal procedure code.
The prosecution countered by insisting that witness testimonies would prove that the chief justice had personally ordered staff to disable GEMS on the date in question. However, the chief justice challenged the prosecution by insisting that he was unaware of any problems with the system.
"The chief justice was not notified. I only went to court that day because there was a request by the PG [prosecutor general] to see what the bench decided. I wasn't even in court the entire day. So its highly likely that I was on the bench when this thing happened. Do you even know where the chief justice was when you're charging him with this? Or when I went to court that day?," an angry chief justice asked the prosecution.
Saeed also said the letter management system was an administrative responsibility which the chief justice does not oversee.
The top judge who remains in custody under the state of emergency has also been charged with obstruction of justice over his refusal to handover his mobile phone to the police.
In addition to the chief justice, former president Maumoon Abdul Gayoom and top court judge Ali Hameed have been charged with terrorism over the alleged plot to overthrow the government.

"Beautiful art comes from a beautiful soul."
Whether you're drawing portraits for an exhibit, producing content for the Web, or curating experiences for the public it's easy to become mesmerized by the external excitement and neglect the internal altogether. When it comes to my own life, it feels like prominence can make my heart grow warm with gratitude, but lethargic with satisfaction. Even in success, there are hardships and things to wrestle against. It's a big bummer!
What his book taught me was that success isn't dependent on outward events, but inward ones. You can be well-known in your city, but that doesn't mean your heart is thriving or that you're even a good person. It's not a fun question to ask yourself, but maybe it's wise to ask if people speak as highly of you as they do of your art. I even wonder if your art can truly be beautiful if your heart isn't?
It requires little effort to focus on your art and ignore the heart and soul, but is your work truly beautiful if your life isn't? Food for thought, friends. It's something I'm asking myself.
Now I'm not the most successful person in the world, but for the first time in my adult life I'm beginning to feel that I've achieved some small measure of personal prosperity. I may not be wealthy or influential, but I've begun to accomplish what I've long dreamed of doing. But with that success comes distractions and it can be hard to know where my sense of self-worth is supposed to be rooted. It's enticing to root it all in my achievements, but that seems too temporary. There must be another place to root it.
This has been on mind for some time, but I've been thinking about it more recently because I feel my life is picking up speed and as it does, it's harder and harder to gauge things. As calendar months fly by and I continually looking ahead in planning, it's become more difficult to remain aware of my heart. If it continues, I think my art will suffer because of it.
So as I consider beautiful art and external achievements, I'm also left thinking about beautiful souls and internal achievements. Honestly, it's hard to understand how one balances the external and internal world, but I know that my best art has come about because my heart was alive. And maybe in some way, keeping your heart whole is just as artistic as painting portraits or writing sonnets. I know that it's just as much as work.
As an artist, it's easy to judge yourself based on the success of your latest artistic endeavors, but those things don't last and a beautiful life is built upon sturdier things than that. I don't have all the answers, but it feels good to wrestle with these questions. You in the same boat? You're creative, you'll figure it out.

Greg Van Avermaet is eager to defend his 2017 victory at Paris-Roubaix on Sunday, even though as he admits, "things haven't fallen into place yet" this season.
Van Avermaet's win last year was his first Monument victory, as well as the first for the team.
"It is a really special feeling to be lining up as the defending champion at Paris-Roubaix. I've felt good and confident in my shape the whole Classics season but things haven't fallen into place yet," he said when BMC named its final line-up for Sunday.
"Paris-Roubaix is completely different to the Belgian classics. As much as you need the legs, you need some luck, to stay safe and avoid punctures. Last year I had some bad luck but I managed to completely change my situation."
This year Van Avermaet has one individual win, stage 3 of the Tour of Oman, where he wore the leader's jersey for two stages. More recently he has finished third in E3 Harelbeke, eighth in Dwars door Vlaanderen and fifth at the Tour of Flanders.
"I was really happy with the team at the Tour of Flanders and we will give it everything we have on Sunday to defend my title. It was amazing last year because I wasn't expecting to win but I did it. I'm capable of winning again so we will see how far I come."
BMC directeur Fabio Baldato is confident the US WorldTour team can produce a good result with Van Avermaet as team leader.
"We have seen that Greg Van Avermaet is strong in the Classics this year and although we haven't managed to get a win, we are confident ahead of Paris-Roubaix. At the Tour of Flanders, we saw the best performance from a team perspective and all of our riders are motivated to help Greg as much as possible on Sunday," he said.
"Paris-Roubaix is the most unpredictable race of the classics and as we have seen in previous years, anything can happen at any moment of the race. We need to be attentive and intelligent in the way we race and by doing this, I am confident that we can produce a good result with Greg as our leader."
BMC for Paris-Roubaix: Greg van Avermaet, Jempy Drucker, Stefan Küng, Jürgen Roelandts, Michael Schär, Nathan Van Hooydonck and Francisco Ventoso.

795796But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?
796797It is the East, and Iuliet is the Sun.
804805She speakes, yet she saies nothing, what of that?
809810To twinckle in their spheres till they returne.
815816See how she leanes her cheeke vpon her hand.
817818That I might touch that cheeke.
826827And sayles vpon the bosome of the ayre.
827828Iuli. O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
830831And ile no longer be a Capulet.
831832Ro. Shall I heare more, or shall I speake at this?
846847Henceforth I neuer will be Romeo.
848849So stumblest on my counsell?
853853Had I it written, I would teare the word.
855855Of thy tongus vttering, yet I know the sound.
856856Art thou not Romeo, and a Mountague?
857857Ro. Neither faire maide, if either thee dislike.
858858 Iuli. How camest thou hither, tel me, and wherfore?
862861If any of my kismen find thee here.
867865Therefore thy kinsmen are no stop to me.
868866Iu. If they do see thee, they will murther thee.
871869And I am proofe against their enmitie.
872870 Iuli. I would not for the world they saw thee here.
876874Then death proroged wanting of thy loue.
877875 Iu. By whose direction foundst thou out this place?
882880I should aduenture for such marchandise.
887885What I haue spoke, but farwell complement.
890888Thou maiest proue false at louers periuries.
904902Which the darke night hath so discouered.
906904That tips with siluer all these frute tree tops.
909907Least that thy loue proue likewise variable.
910908Ro. What shall I sweare by?
915913Ro. If my hearts deare loue.
924922Come to thy heart, as that within my brest.
925923Ro. O wilt thou leaue me so vnsatisfied?
926924Iuli. What satisfaction canst thou haue to night?
927925 Ro. Th'exchange of thy loues faithful vow for mine.
929927And yet I would it were to giue againe.
930928 Ro. Woldst thou withdraw it, for what purpose loue?
940936Stay but a little, I will come againe.
943939Too flattering sweete to be substantiall.
951946And follow thee my L. throughout the world. Madam.
954948I do beseech thee (by and by I come) Madam.
957950To morrow will I send.
958951Ro. So thriue my soule.
959952Iu. A thousand times goodnight.
962955But loue from loue, toward schoole with heauie lookes.
969962With repetition of my Romeo.
970963Ro. It is my soule that calls vpon my name.
972965Like softest musicke to attending eares.
976969Shall I send to thee?
977970Ro. By the houre of nine.
979972I haue forgot why I did call thee backe.
980973Ro. Let me stand here till thou remember it.
982975Remembring how I loue thy companie.
984977Forgetting any other home but this.
990983So louing Iealous of his libertie.
991984Ro. I would I were thy bird.
996989That I shall say good night, till it be morrow.
997990 Iu. Sleep dwel vpon thine eyes, peace in thy breast.
1002995From forth daies pathway, made by Tytans wheeles.
1004997His helpe to craue, and my deare hap to tell.
