A long-term friendship between swordsman Slade Igerman and sniper Reeve Taylor turns intimate. Slade, a high-paid leader in the Special Forces, has difficulty dealing with people in general and has never had any luck maintaining a serious relationship. He's an outwardly cold and withdrawn man. Reeve is the complete opposite, a social butterfly, a very outspoken and sarcastic individual, someone who seeks to enjoy everything life has to offer.
After a year together, they have created what appears to be a lasting bond and are seemingly happy. And for the first time in his life, Slade has successfully kept the interest of one man. He's in love and can't wait to see what the future brings. But just when he thinks things couldn't get any better, Reeve is called away by duty.
When the sniper returns, he finds his lover to be a very changed man and their relationship on the verge of collapse. Reeve can sense it, something has happened in his absence and Slade is keeping a secret. Whether it's love or a bruised ego, he refuses to give up until he gets an answer. But when he does get the answer, it brings a host of personal demons to the surface. Forced to face an uncertain future, Reeve wonders if love will be enough to conquer the demons and save their relationship?

A knife (plural knives) is a cutting tool with an exposed cutting edge or blade, hand-held or otherwise, with or without a handle. Knife-like tools were used at least two-and-a-half million years ago, as evidenced by the Oldowan tools.

The closest relative among the other living Primates, the genus Pan, represents a branch that continued on in the deep forest, where the primates evolved. The rift served as a conduit for movement into southern Africa and also north down the Nile into North Africa and through the continuation of the rift in the Levant to the vast grasslands of Asia.
Starting from about 3 mya a single biome established itself from South Africa through the rift, North Africa, and across Asia to modern China, which has been called "transcontinental 'savannahstan'" recently. Starting in the grasslands of the rift, Homo erectus, the predecessor of modern humans, found an ecological niche as a tool-maker and developed a dependence on it, becoming a "tool equipped savanna dweller. The handle, used to grip and manipulate the blade safely, may include the tang, a portion of the blade that extends into the handle. Knives are made with partial tangs (extending part way into the handle, known as a "Stick Tang") or full tangs (extending the full length of the handle, often visible on top and bottom).

O Pittsburgh Pirates é uma equipe de beisebol americana sediada em Pittsburgh, Pensilvânia. Os Pirates jogam na Major League Baseball, como membros da Divisão Central da Liga Nacional (NL). Os Pirates mandam seus jogos no PNC Park, mas o clube já teve como estádios o Forbes Field e o Three Rivers Stadium. Fundado em 15 de novembro de 1881 como Pittsburg Alleghenys, a franquia conquistou cinco vezes a World Series. Os Pirates podem ser chamados de "Bucs" ou "Buccos" (diminutivos de "buccaneers", sinônimo de "pirate").

História

Fundação
Os Pirates são um dos times mais antigos do beisebol norte-americano. Entre 1882 e 1886, então conhecidos como Pittsburgh Alleghenys (em homenagem ao rio Allegheny, que, ao lado do rio Monongahella, corre ao longo da cidade para formar o rio Ohio), foram membros fundadores da American Association. Devido às boas campanhas nessa liga, o time foi convidado para fazer parte da Liga Nacional em 1887.

Na nova liga, o time teve campanhas apenas razoáveis, com aproveitamento entre 44,4% e 49,3%. Só que em 1890 o elenco sofreu baixas importantes com o surgimento da Player's League, uma liga paralela, e terminou o ano com apenas 23 vitórias, junto com 113 derrotas. Por causa disso, o dono do time, Dennis McKnight acabou com o time e juntou forças com os donos da franquia de Pittsburgh na Player's League, que também tinha fechado, e formou uma nova entidade, conhecida como Companhia Atlética de Pittsburgh.

Essa nova entidade tornou-se a dona da franquia de Pittsburgh na Liga Nacional, que passou a ser conhecida como Pittsburgh Pirates. À exceção de 1893, quando terminaram na segunda posição, os Pirates tiveram apenas campanhas medianas nessa década. Em 1899 Barney Dreyfuss, dono do time de Louisville, antecipando-se à medida que, ao final da temporada, acabaria com sua franquia, comprou metade do time de Pittsburgh.

Ele não parou por aí. Ainda arranjou uma troca vantajosa para os Pirates, mandando 12 dos jogadores do Louisville — incluindo todas as estrelas — para Pittsburgh, en troca de quatro jogadores e 25 mil dólares em dinheiro. Entre esses jogadores estavam Fred Clarke, Tommy Leach, Deacon Phillippe, Rube Waddell, Honus Wagner e Chief Zimmer.

Os primeiros títulos
O time tornou-se uma força instantaneamente graças à troca, especialmente pela presença de Wagner. Entre 1901 e 1903, ganhou o título da Liga Nacional, e nesse último ano disputou — e perdeu — a primeira Série Mundial, contra o Boston Pilgrims (hoje os Red Sox). Em 1909 ganharam seu quarto título da LN e bateram o Detroit Tigers de Ty Cobb na Série Mundial, mandando seus jogos no Forbes Field, seu novíssimo estádio feito de concreto e aço.

Depois da aposentadoria de Honus Wagner, o time entrou em declínio até os anos 1920, quando novas estrelas surgiram no elenco. Na Série Mundial de 1925 venceram o Washington Senators de Walter Johnson em sete jogos, depois de estarem perdendo a série por três jogos a um. Foi a primeira vez que tal virada foi conseguida no beisebol. Mas, dois anos depois, os Pirates não foram páreo na Série Mundial para o New York Yankees, cuja equipe em 1927 é quase sempre citada como a melhor de todos os tempos. Apesar de ter perdido os quatro jogos, duas dessas derrotas foram por apenas uma corrida de diferença e o último jogo foi decidido por um arremesso errôneo na nona entrada.

Os anos de seca
Depois do título da Liga Nacional em 1927, foram 33 anos de seca, com algumas boas campanhas até 1938 e muitas más campanhas nos anos 1940 e 1950. Duas ocasiões foram emblemáticas para demonstrar essa época de vacas magras.

Em 1955 os Bucs não tinham conseguido rebatida alguma contra Sam Jones, do Chicago Cubs, mas lotaram as bases com três andadas no início da nona entrada. Só que o time não conseguiu fazê-lo pagar por isso: Jones eliminou os três rebatedores seguintes por strike-out.

Já em 1959 foi muito mais dolorido. Em 26 de maio o arremessador Harvey Haddix, dos Pirates, arremessou doze entradas perfeitas contra o Milwaukee Braves, mas, como os Pirates também não marcaram corridas, apesar de 12 rebatidas válidas (incluindo três simples na terceira entrada), o jogo estendeu-se. Harvey chegou a ser aplaudido de pé pela tocida adversária ao final da nona entrada, o que se repetiu ao final da 10.ª, 11.ª e 12.ª. Na 13.ª entrada, um home run confuso de Joe Adcock encerrou a partida com vitória dos Braves — e nada mais de jogo perfeito para Haddix.

Uma das poucas boas notícias dessa década veio em 1954, quando do recrutamento de Roberto Clemente, considerado por muitos o maior jogador a vestir a camisa dos Pirates. Ele tinha contrato com o Brooklyn Dodgers, mas, como seu time não o usava, ele estava disponível para o recrutamento. Os Dodgers tentaram "escondê-lo", usando-o muito pouco em seu time de baixo durante aquela temporada, mas os Bucs, que detinham a primeira escolha, estavam de olho e escolheram-no em 22 de novembro.

O título de 1960
Durante a temporada de 1960 os Pirates lutaram com o St. Louis Cardinals pelo título da Liga Nacional até os últimos dias e garantiram a classificação com a derrota dos Cards para o Chicago Cubs em 25 de setembro. A Série Mundial seria novamente contra os Yankees.

Mesmo 33 anos depois, o time de Nova York ainda tinha um elenco imponente e era considerado o favorito por larga margem. Esse favoritismo pareceu merecido nas três vitórias que os Yankees acumularam na série, nos jogos 2, 3 e 6, respectivamente por 16-3, 10-0 e 12-0, mas os Pirates valeram-se de boas atuações de seus arremessadores e de sua defesa, além de rebatidas nas horas certas, para estender a série até o sétimo jogo. As vitórias nos jogos 1, 4 e 5 foram, respectivamente, por 6-4, 3-2 e 5-2.

O sétimo e decisivo jogo foi realizado no Forbes Field. Os Pirates fecharam a oitava entrada ganhando por 9-7, graças a um home run de três corridas de Hal Smith, mas os nova-iorquinos empataram a partida na parte de cima da nona entrada. Mal sabiam que o jogo não se estenderia muito mais. Na parte de baixo, Bill Mazeroski rebateu o que é talvez o home run mais dramático da história do beisebol, depois do segundo arremesso de Ralph Terry, às 15h36 do horário local. Conta-se que o legendário Mickey Mantle, astro dos Yankees, chorou por horas depois da derrota de seu time por 10-9.

Mazeroski foi o único jogador a encerrar uma Série Mundial com um home run até Joe Carter, do Toronto Blue Jays, repetir o feito em 1993. Mas Mazeroski ainda é o único a ter conseguido o feito em um jogo 7.

Os títulos dos anos 1970
Os Pirates mantiveram-se competitivos ao longo da década de 1960, mesmo sem chegar a nenhuma outra Série Mundial, e mudaram-se para o Three Rivers Stadium em 1970. Em 1971, alcançaram novamente as finais do beisebol e conquistaram outro título, desta vez em cima do Baltimore Orioles, com uma atuação espetacular de Clemente.

Apesar da morte prematura de Clemente no final de 1972, aos 38 anos, em um acidente de avião quando levava suprimentos de Porto Rico às vítimas de um terremoto na Nicarágua, ao longo dessa década, os Bucs conquistaram seis títulos da Divisão Leste da Liga Nacional. Em 1979 os Orioles estavam no caminho em mais uma Série Mundial. Mais uma vez, os Pirates prevaleceram em sete jogos, com Willie Stargell agora fazendo o papel de estrela ofensiva. Assim como 54 anos antes, os Pirates tiveram de virar uma série que perdiam por três jogos a um. Até hoje, ainda são o único time a ter conseguido esse feito por duas vezes.

Passado recente
Depois de trazer o título para Pittsburgh em 1979, os Pirates decaíram na década seguinte, até que um jovem time, liderado por Barry Bonds ganhou três títulos seguidos da Divisão Leste entre 1990 e 1992. Nas três ocasiões, os Pirates foram derrotados nas finais da Liga Nacional. Bonds saiu ao final da temporada de 1992, quando seu contrato acabou, e foi para o San Francisco Giants. Por coincidência ou não, os Pirates não conseguiram campanhas vitoriosas em nenhuma das temporadas seguintes.

O mais próximo que chegaram foi em 1997, quando um time jovem e inexperiente, que era cotado para a lanterna disparada da Liga Nacional, teve 79 vitórias e 83 derrotas e chegou a brigar pelo título da Divisão Central, de que os Pirates fazem parte desde 1994.

There once was a man who developed, "Ye Ole Grand Website of Renown". It was a lovely site and he was well proud of his accomplishment. The navigation of the site surpassed Viking tales of old. Each section of the website sported a beautifully crafted signboard and Old England flare. Tidbits of knowledge were placed liberally throughout the site and the owner thought to wax fat and happy as he estimated the value of the site to his own family wealth. Lo this was a beneficent day in the life of the owner – the day when the masses would be welcomed to his 'beauteous beyond reckoning' website.
Alas the masses did not arrive. They did not bring coin to cast into his personal treasury and the site languished under the labor of silence and disuse. The owner lamented his misfortune and stood in the middle of his room in the midst of wailing and gnashing of teeth. So much work had gone into the site yet no one had bothered to notice. "Hear ye, hear ye," he called from his high-back leather office chair, "I would that ye would come to my site and traverse its many byways.
This site hath much to offer. Turn aside and ye shall see." A fine soliloquy to be sure, but this in and of itself did little to encourage the masses although there may have been a rodent or two that found his speech mildly amusing. Then a wise man arrived at his door and simply said, "If you want people to know about your site you must go to the people for they do not know the way." A revelation, simple yet profound. The repercussions of this thought continue to be felt in all online business. Many online business owners believe that to improve their business they simply need to concentrate on their own websites and hope people find them. The truth is most people will NOT find your website without your direct intervention. Internet marketing is important to the success of your website. This includes Search Engine Optimization (SEO) of the website, but it also requires that you leave the pages of your website from time to time in order to encourage others to come in.
This can take the form of blog, forum and social media posts, but it can also take the form of applying for directory listings and finding alternate sources for advertising (i. Pay Per Click or Banner Advertising). The growth of your business is directly proportional to how you manage Internet marketing. If you don't spend the time to advance strategies that get your site noticed its really no different than our fictional store owner calling to online customers from his office chair – it does your site no good. Internet marketing may be easy to overlook simply because it seems the most expendable in the arena of online business, but when you let the marketing slide you are more likely to see a sure and steady decline in online visitation and business growth.


Veteran highlife musician, Nana Kontihene has revealed that his downfall and failure in the music industry was all because of his colleague Kwabena Kwabena.
According to the highlife rapper, he was a huge influence on Kwabena Kwabena's successful career but he went on to become bigger than him.
To recall, the two appeared together on Kwabena Kwabena's breakout single 'Aso', which cemented the singer as one of the premier singers in the industry.
Kwabena Kwabena after the release of that single hit never looked back from there whilst Kontihene became a nobody and irrelevant.
Kontihene who is now disappointed for his action back then claims he devoted a lot of his time and energy in those days to promote Kwabena Kwabena whilst he put his own career on pause and that is why his career went down the drain.
Speaking in an interview on Daybreak Hitz with Andy Dosty, Kontihene stated that he thought he could create his own empire by bringing up other stars.
"I wanted to create an empire with strong talents sprouting from it but it turned out to be the opposite," he said.
"I think it was stupid for me to put my career on hold…I could have used the energy to do something else.
"I had to start [my career] all over again after that," he concluded.
However, with all those claims from Nana Kontihene admitting a pivotal role in Kwabena Kwabena's career, the latter has debunked all those allegations saying Kontihene only featured on his song but was not the driving force behind his success.
For every Shatta Wale or Stonebwoy in Ghanaian music, there are 100 other artistes who never made it into the limelight.
And for every Samini and Sarkodie, there are also a few artists who were once the 'ish' but then became irrelevant after having their 15 minutes of fame in the limelight.

The Rams travel north to face the 49ers in an NFC West battle on "Monday Night Football." If Los Angeles earns the victory in the Week 10 matchup, it will be tied with the Cardinals atop the division at 8-2.
LA will be counting on quarterback Matthew Stafford, who is coming off a two-interception game in a Week 9 loss to the Titans. No. 1 wide receiver Cooper Kupp and new wideout Odell Beckham Jr. will be his main targets. Beckham will be making his Rams debut after signing with the team Thursday. No. 2 receiver Robert Woods is out for the season after he suffered a torn ACL in practice Friday. Kupp leads the NFL with 1,019 receiving yards and 10 receiving touchdowns.
Stafford, however, will be going up against the NFL's top-ranked pass defense. End Nick Bosa leads the 49ers with seven sacks and 12 tackles for loss.

49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo threw for a season-high 326 yards, with two touchdowns and an interception, in the team's 31-17 loss to the Cardinals last week. He connected with tight end George Kittle on six receptions for 109 yards and a touchdown, and he found wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk six times for 89 yards and a touchdown. Deebo Samuel leads the 49ers with 882 receiving yards.
The Rams have linebacker Von Miller available to pressure Garoppolo. Miller is making his LA debut, as well; he sat out last week's game with an ankle injury after being acquired from the Broncos at the NFL trade deadline Nov. 2. Leonard Floyd is the Rams' sack leader with 7.5. All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald is next with six.
LA enters the game as a 3 1/2-point road favorite, according to FanDuel.

Our helicopter trip to the Grand Canyon was also amazing but at the beginning of the day. Hovering slowly down the sides of the 1-mile deep Canyon was awesome and breakfast at 8 am with the temperature at 100 farenheit at that early hour was a never-to-be-forgotten experience. By helicopter is definitely the way to do it.

JPMorgan to close 5 percent of all its branches as customers go mobile and the bank cuts costs
Published February 24, 2015 IndustriesAssociated Press
JPMorgan Chase plans to close 300 bank branches over the next two years, about 5 percent of the total, as more customers move online and the bank seeks to cut costs.
The closures are part of a $1.4 billion cost-cutting plan the bank announced for this year. The latest developments were revealed during the bank's annual investor day conference Tuesday.
Online and mobile banking have become increasingly popular and that trend is expected to continue. The shift online has begun to make brick-and-mortar branches less necessary and, frankly, expensive.
Tellers handled only 42 percent of all bank deposits last year, according to JPMorgan, down from 90 percent in 2007. Banks have made even visits to an ATM less necessary, introducing technology that only requires customers to take a picture of a check with a smartphone to make a deposit.
Teller transactions are now among the most expensive for banks to process. It costs JPMorgan roughly 65 cents each time a deposit is made through a teller, more than eight times the cost to process an ATM deposit. Deposits through a smartphone costs the bank three cents, more than 20 times the cost of a traditional deposit.
Still, roughly 90 percent of JPMorgan customers visit a brick-and-mortar location each year, with an average visit of 12 times annually. The bank had been opening net new branches as recently as 2013, but closed 28 net branches last year.
Due to the increasing use of online and mobile banking, bank branches will move away from everyday transactions to focus more on advisory services like wealth management and account openings, JPMorgan executives said. Customers should, in time, expect to see few teller windows open and more ATMs.
A spokesman said it was too early to know which bank branches will close. JPMorgan had 5,602 branches in 2014 and employed roughly 46,000 people at those locations, not including branch managers.


If your store has more than one staff member, working in various capacities, it's imperative that your iPad POS can switch between users in an instant. This allows your business to keep moving, even as employees change over.
Fortunately, Hike's iPad POS can do just that, while also affording retailers with an expansive employee management system.
Switching users on your iPad POS, is a simple, 2-step process. To add new users and set user permissions however, you will need to access the Admin (Back Office) section of Hike.
On this page, we'll run you through exactly how to switch users on your Hike iPad POS.
First, draw up the Hike menu by clicking on the hamburger icon (☰) on the top-left of the screen.
By selecting this, you will be taken back to the Hike login page where you will need to re-enter your email address and password to log back in.
Click this if you want to change the password that you use to login into Hike (Note: This is not the same as user PIN).
If an employee needs to login into Hike with their user ID, they will need to select Switch User.
This will then slide open a new screen, where all created users will be displayed with their name and/or their profile picture (if previously uploaded into Hike).
Select your User ID from the list of Users available.
You will then be prompted to enter your PIN ID.
Once done, you will now be logged into Hike POS. Any sales or refunds that are completed, will be displayed under your name.
Creating new users and setting user permissions, will need to be done on the Admin section of Hike POS.
Hike advises that when editing Users in Hike, you do so on a PC or Mac, as the process is more conducive for editing, but it is of course very possible to perform these actions on an iPad as well.
To do, so you must first ensure that user logged into Hike POS has access to the Admin section of Hike – in most instances this will only be the Administrator of Hike POS.
Then, draw up the Hike menu by clicking on the hamburger icon (☰) on the top-left of the screen and select Admin.
Note: The link to the Admin page will not appear if the user logged in has no access to it.
You will then be taken to the Admin (Back Office) page where you will be able to create users and set permissions.
This process is exactly the same as it is if you were performing the function on a PC or Mac computer/laptop.

Coherent Defects in Diamond [Applied Physics/Physics Colloquium]
Coherent Defects in Diamond
Hewlett 200
Nathalie de Leon (Princeton University)
Engineering coherent systems is a central goal of quantum science and quantum information processing. Point defects in diamond known as color centers are a promising physical platform. As atom-like systems, they can exhibit excellent spin coherence and can be manipulated with light. As solid-state defects, they can be produced at high densities and incorporated into scalable devices. Diamond is a uniquely excellent host: it has a large band gap, can be synthesized with sub-ppb impurity concentrations, and can be isotopically purified to eliminate magnetic noise from nuclear spins. Specifically, the nitrogen vacancy (NV) center has been used to has been used to demonstrate basic building blocks of quantum networks and quantum computers, and has been demonstrated to be a highly sensitive, non-invasive magnetic probe capable of resolving the magnetic field of a single electron spin with nanometer spatial resolution. However, realizing the full potential of these systems requires the ability to both understand and manipulate diamond as a material. I will present two recent results that demonstrate how carefully tailoring the diamond host can dramatically improve the performance of color centers for various applications.
First, currently-known color centers either exhibit long spin coherence times or efficient, coherent optical transitions, but not both. We have developed new methods to control the diamond Fermi level in order to stabilize a new color center, the neutral charge state of the silicon vacancy (SiV) center, which exhibits both the excellent optical properties of the negatively charged SiV center and the long spin coherence times of the NV center, making it a promising candidate for applications as a single atom quantum memory for long distance quantum communication.
Second, color centers placed close to the diamond surface can have strong interactions with molecules and materials external to the diamond. However, uncontrolled surface termination and contamination can degrade the color center properties and give rise to noise that obscures the signal of interest. I will describe our recent efforts to stabilize shallow NV centers within 5 nm of the surface using new surface processing and termination techniques. These highly coherent, shallow NV centers will provide a platform for sensing and imaging down to the scale of single atoms.

"Low thermal quenching and high-efficiency Ce3+, Tb3+-co-doped Ca3Sc2Si" by Yibo Chen, Kok Wai Cheah et al.
Low thermal quenching and high-efficiency Ca3Sc 2Si3O12:Ce3+ (CSSO:Ce3+) phosphors with co-doping Tb3+ ion were prepared by a solid state method and the properties of these phosphors were investigated. The results showed that co-doping of Tb3+ not only enhances the photoluminescence remarkably and decreases the thermal quenching of the phosphor, but also heightens the performances of the LEDs fabricated with the phosphor. A high-efficiency and low color temperature white LED was fabricated with the prepared CSSO:1%Ce3+, 0.5%Tb3+ and a red phosphor, indicating that CSSO:1%Ce3+,0.5%Tb3+ phosphor is a suitable green phosphor for the fabrication of high-efficiency white LEDs. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.

See: how to use facebook marketplace for ecommerce business
To top it all up, Facebook offers this service for free, so users do not have to pay any commissions.
However, it's got a catch – there is always a catch.
The service is available in only a few selected countries, for now, so only users from these countries can take advantage of it.
Also, users have to be up to the age of 18 years to be allowed to use it.
Nevertheless, some hacks to bypass these and get to use the service in spite of one's ineligibility will be presented during the course of this post. Keep reading to learn about them.
How to Get the Marketplace feature on Facebook
Normally, all users who meet the criteria for using the service have it baked in already into their Facebook app.
The service is not an app to be downloaded. But for users who don't, do either one or both of the following:
> If you meet the age criterion but not the country, change your country to one of those which support the service. These countries include the US, UK,Germany, France, Spain, Mexico, India etc.
> If you meet the country criterion but not the age, change your birth date to make it seem as though you're up to or above 18 years.
> If you don't meet any of the criteria, you can go ahead and execute the steps above. > Log out of your account and log back in to refresh things.
The Marketplace feature will be automatically added to your account once you've finished readjusting things to become eligible to use it.
How to Access the Facebook Marketplace
> Log into your Facebook account.
> Click on the shop-front like icon on the top of the home page.
> This will take you right into the Marketplace.
What you do next is determined if you're planning on making sales or rather buying items…
How to Sell Items on the Marketplace
> After accessing the Marketplace, click on the "Sell" option.
> Add good, clear photos of the item you want to sell.
> Add a title for the item and give its concise description.
> Enter your location.
> Put a price on the item and finally, post it for sale.
This doesn't mean the item has been sold, mind you. It's simply been put on display so prospective buyers can browse through and get in touch with you to find out how to get it if interested.
How to Buy Items on the Marketplace
> After accessing the Marketplace, make use of the "Search" option.
> Enter the name of whatever item you want to buy. If available for sale, an array of the items from different sellers will be displayed.
> Browse through to find one you're comfortable with.
> Click on the item itself to get in touch with the seller.

Sign UpUnder Attack?
Missouri Secretary of State
John R. Ashcroft, Missouri Secretary of State (SOS), is the chief elections official in Missouri and is responsible for administering elections in the state. The Office of the SOS manages the Missouri Centralized Voter Registration System (MCVR) which is used by all 116 Local Election Authorities (LEA) and is at the forefront of safeguarding the integrity of Missouri elections. The SOS plays a crucial role in providing support to the LEAs, if requested, with an election security best practices guide, security assessments, and continuity of operation plan creation. In 2020, before the November 3rd general election, the SOS accepted more than 318,000 online voter registration submissions. These submissions include new registrations, address changes, and name changes which are processed by LEA offices.
Stacy Mahaney, Chief Information Officer, and Willis Doss, Deputy Chief Information Officer, are responsible for the security and defense of the many SOS websites/applications and MCVR. In the days leading up to election night, the Missouri SOS was responsible for monitoring and assessing potential threats. This responsibility includes sharing and coordinating responses to threat information with federal, state, and local officials in Missouri.
The Missouri SOS joined the Athenian Project in 2018, onboarding only an archive site of past election results initially. After seeing the benefits of this collaboration along with reviewing guidance provided by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Mahaney and Doss onboarded additional sites. Familiarity with Cloudflare's Enterprise services and excellent support made this change leading up to the 2020 U.S. elections a reality.
"The idea of our election websites being inaccessible due to a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack was a concern for us, especially in the election space where trust and access to authoritative voting information is crucial," said Mahaney. "There is only so much you can plan and test in terms of preparedness on the security side and after implementing Cloudflare and many other security precautions, we felt confident we had a security platform in place where we could adjust and respond to threats and high demand in real-time."
Preparing for the Unexpected:
For the 2020 U.S. elections, the Missouri Secretary of State's cyber security team worked with a variety of federal government agencies such as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) along with the Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center (EI-ISAC). The SOS cyber security team has many state partners including the Office of Administration's Information Technology Services Division and the Department of Public Safety which includes the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC), and the St. Louis and Kansas City Fusion Centers to aid in securing and ensuring that the election related sites remain accessible. The public looks to election officials as the trusted source for information and finalizing election results. With this in mind, Mahaney and Doss were better prepared for the unexpected. "Our team and cybersecurity capabilities grow during each election, so we have to train the staff on the new technology our agency uses to secure our processes as we expand," said Mahaney. "Cloudflare solutions are user-friendly and easy to deploy, which allowed us to onboard domains quickly and train our staff on the ins and outs of the Cloudflare security suite."
Prior to Cloudflare, Mahaney and Doss in the case of an emergency often had limited or delayed access to their security tools and consoles. During election week, many government agencies provided state and local government's threat briefings and intelligence related to threats and ways to mitigate in real-time on election night. "In the past, we worked with a variety of vendors and, at times, did not have direct access to our security tools to make immediate changes," said Doss. "To put everything under one umbrella, we had the ability to monitor and quickly change or address pertinent issues during this election cycle."
The Web Application Firewall (WAF) analytics gave the Missouri SOS team visibility into security threats and granular control to quickly deploy custom WAF rules to mitigate new threats aimed at their election resources. Mahaney says, "The ease of use with Cloudflare, especially the ability to deploy a web application firewall rule in 30 seconds allowed us to adapt and quickly respond." In addition to the Cloudflare WAF, the Missouri SOS cached their website heavily on Cloudflare's network, which reduced the bandwidth usage and load on their servers substantially. During the weeks before the election, Mahaney detailed the spikes in traffic primarily accessing the voter registration lookup and voter outreach portal, which provide polling places and sample ballots for review. "We saw four times the amount of network traffic to the Missouri SOS site on election night," said Mahaney.
When looking at security for state and local governments, Mahaney and Doss note that LEA offices that provide voting information might not always have the resources or expertise to know how to block threats in real-time or expand network or server capacity in the event of high volumes of unexpected network traffic. The addition of tools such as Cloudflare and the Athenian Project could be a quick way for them to add this level of defense. "Security is like an onion. Every layer of security that you add protects against various layers of attack or exposure," said Mahaney. "We were able to add layers to our security defenses with Cloudflare. The more layers you add, the more difficult it is for attackers to succeed in making voters question the trust of the democratic process that we work to protect every day."

Get flu vaccine now, says Luxembourg's Health Ministry
Luxembourg's Ministry of Health has just issued a statement recommending that people over 65 and the ill receive vaccinations now against seasonal flu.
(ADW) Luxembourg's Ministry of Health has just issued a statement recommending that people over 65 and the ill receive vaccinations now against seasonal flu.
The vaccine is free and available in pharmacies by prescription.
"The best time for vaccination is in October and November. Fifteen days after the vaccine, the immune system is ready to defend itself against the flu virus. The immunity continues for at least six months," explained the Directorate of Health statement.
People at risk are mainly those suffering from respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, diabetes, kidney problems, or reduced immunity and therefore they "should consult their doctor immediately for vaccination," the statement said.
However this does not mean that those not suffering from these ailments are not entitled to flu vaccinations as the service is open to everyone.
Influenza is a respiratory infection with symptoms such as a dry cough, high temperatures, chills, muscle and back aches and also headaches.
If left untreated, flu can cause serious complications, such as pneumonia, which occurs more often in the elderly, children and adults with chronic illnesses.
During the 'flu season', the number of hospitalisation cases and deaths from pneumonia increase significantly, warns the Directorate of Health.

As much as I dislike Vanessa I would vote for her to win. She's playing these morons like a fiddle.
Don't like her but she deserves to win if she makes it to the end.
At 7:38 BB time Vanessa won HoH. Oh dog poop.

If there was a drinking game where we all drank every time Vanessa says "like" we'd all be dead from alcohol poisoning. The way she talks, it's sometimes hard to believe that she is educated.

She's exhausting.

Last night Shelli admiring Vanessa's game. Jeeebus.... All that's left for Vanessa to do is decide who she wants to have 2nd place. That part is predictable. Who it will be is a toss up though, I think.
Vanessa has got some giant balls. Tells JMac she may need to put him up but if he wins veto and uses it on himself he HAS to vote how she tells him to. She tells Steve basically 'I know we had a deal but I might have to put you up anyway, too bad for you'. She tells everyone 'if you send me to jury I'll poison all of them against you and you will not win'. And she managed to get Liz to agree to take her on the luxury trip instead of Austin.
Sweet Baby Jesus! I don't like to resort to personal attacks, but this vile creature is truly ugly both inside and out.

I love it! Not only did Vanessa do all of the above, she forced everyone to reveal all the side deals that they had with each other. She needed to discover the "discrepancies" and determine whether or not these deals were legitimate or if people were lying to her or other people. She has made deals with everyone that allows her to control who goes to jury regardless of who wins HOH. Vanessa has it set up where no one can put her up and that if someone does the others cannot vote her out unless they break their word. This is incredible! And don't get me even started with her F2 deals.
How can she say she hasn't broke her word to anyone? She told JMac that she would throw the HOH to him AND he was right behind her to win AND she did not throw it! Now, she is putting up Steve who has been with her from the beginning.

I don't mind her being a snake. She's done it from the beginning and is very good at laying blame in other places when she is cornered. What sucks is I think she is going to turn her back on Steve and JMac and take Austin and Liz to the end. Really? After all of her cries of "I've been playing this game alone." She's about to loose any modicum of respect I might have had for her as a player if she puts up Steve and JMac. I hope she's just joking around.

I really hope her beloved Mel sees what she is doing and how she acts in the house and breaks up with Vanessa. I am sure Mel and Vanessa's mom cringe every time Vanessa swears on their lives.
I think at this point whoever evicts Vanessa will win the game if they make it to F2. I want to vomit every time I see and hear Vanessa and hope she doesn't win.
Bullying your way to the top is not strategic at all; she's one of the worst players I've seen. But she's great at being a bully.
Why they allow her to get by with it is beyond me. They must assume there's no way she'll make it to the final three since
the house dislikes her so much.
Location:colorado springs co
She is dillusional if she thinks she can sway a jury to not vote for the person that evicts her. Once in jury her power is gone. They will vote who they want to and not who she tells them to. I would love for her to go to jury last then she would not have a chance to say anything to anybody. What a waste of a summer. She is so lucky she got players this year like Steve and Austin. For that matter this whole cast with the exception of Becky who had her figured out. I have never seen a dumber group of people. I hope next year they try to cast people and not recruit them.
I think in the end Vanessa will put up JMac and Liz because she knows both of them probably will never take her to F2 as long as Steve or Austin is around. I think that Liz would be her target because Vanessa knows that if Liz makes it to F2 her resume will be very impressive and Liz will probably win over Vanessa.
She is putting up Jmac and Steve and looks like the target is Jmac.
I just don't see that happening Marty. Jmac is by far the easiest one she can beat as he has won no HoH's, only veto comps. Her best bet is to put up one from each side like Austin/Liz vs. Jmack/Steve. Personally I think if she makes F2 with anyone that's left she will win this game. As much as I hate saying this she has by far played the best game.
Jmac and Steve are on the block.
Liz taking Vanessa to Grande concert with Frankie... Sounds like Austin dodged a bullet if you ask me.
I am surprised CBS took them there after the donut licking scandal she had in July. Funny thing is the Liz and Van have no clue about it because they were in the house at the time of the scandal.

Generally I like players that will lie, deceive, mislead and take advantage of the other players, but something about the way Vanessa plays the game just don't feel right to me. I usually don't mind a little bullying but Vanessa seems to go overboard with it.
That being said, she deserves the win if she gets to the final 2. She has definitely played hard.
Manipulation and bullying are accepted in this game. In fact people love to hate them when they own it, ala Evil Dick. She has done this and then plays victim. That is why most hate her and her game. I believe she has lived her life this way. A vile human that runs people over and cries poor me when faced with the truth. I wish nothing good for her
I think it's probably all about personal taste. If another HG played the way she does and I liked them, I'd probably laugh & root for them all the way.
While I can appreciate Vanessa's game; she's got some mist alright! I just don't like her and want anyone of who's left to beat her, except maybe Austin. He's got the next best game after her, but i don't like him either.
If I was on jury, I'd totally vote for who I like better, regardless of game. (That's you Johnny Mac!)
I compare it to hockey players I can't stand. I can be awed by how good they are, but hope they are never on my team because I think they're not good people. (imo or proven to be so...)
Irrational maybe, but that's how I roll.
Right. That's all part of the game of BB and everyone knows that going in. I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's something about Vanessa that's very "off".
As far as who wins the game, I don't particularly care for any of the remaining HGs, so I won't be overjoyed by any particular player winning. It will be entertaining if the winner is NOT Vanessa, but I don't really care.
If you can't put your finger on it, call Austin,


According to promise I write to you.
I have requested a gentleman, Mr. Allard, who is perfectly trustworthy, of good ability, and somewhat accustomed to your business, to take the agency here. I think you can not do better than to let him have them. Should he fail to pay for what he gets I will hold myself responsible, provided he sells them.
Please send them down tomorrow so that he can commence sale Saturday. If he has good luck with the dozen he will order more. Address C.B. Allard, Box 651, Adrian, Mich.
You will favor me by forwarding them to him, as he is a friend, and I take great interest in his welfare.

Whatever the estimate of it by academic philosophers in their cloistered wisdom, it can hardly be doubted that the phenomenon known as "New Age Thought" represents to many people the most vital philosophy currently on offer. Of course, it's also true that very few people, if any at all, understand with much precision what "New Age Thought" actually is. This need not prevent an obscure faith in it by its many aficionados, and a possibly justified feeling that it has more to do with "real philosophy" and "things that really matter" than its more academically respectable rivals: the anaemic waltzes of much analytic philosophy; the funeral marches of Marxism; and that curious mixture of esoteric serenade and bullshitter's bop known as contemporary Continental deconstructivo-partstructured- post-pissed-off-modernism.
One of the interesting things about David Icke's book The Truth Vibrations is that it does make a serious and pretty successful attempt to present the apparently eclectic sprawl of the New Age in terms of something approaching a logically coherent system. Icke makes a concerted effort to blend together elements which partly overlap with those of Romanticism as a historical movement and overlap even more with those of the "Hippy Era" of the 1960s. If you want an explanation of what in the world, or in the universe, such things as energy, vibrations, ecology, Green politics, holistic medicine, alternative therapy, feminism, flying saucers, earthquakes, ley lines, stone circles, corn circles, religion, magic, psychology, myth, and mysticism have to do with each other, then you could do a lot worse than take a look at Icke's book .
The central buzzwords, which seem to function rather as undefined primitive concepts of the whole New Age system, are 'energy' and 'vibrations'. On the everyday level, in New Age terminology, these two terms appear interchangeable, the statements "Wow, that guy's giving off uncool energies", "Hey, that dude's got bad vibes" and "That bloke with the tattooes and the pit bull terrier seems a bit hostile" all being roughly synonymous.
On a more theoretical level, however, the two terms appear to be not so much interchangeable as essentially related. In an account that has something in common with the theories of Indian yoga and Chinese chi kung, something in common with Plotinus's Theory of Emanations, and (perhaps) something in common with contemporary physics, the basic story seems to be as follows: everything in the universe is energy which is vibrating at different rates or levels. Further, energy which is vibrating at rates different from our own cannot be perceived, or at least perceived clearly by us. From this it follows that the visible universe is in fact merely a limited perspective, taken from our own rate of vibration, of the much vaster universe of all levels of vibration, resulting in a world rich in unseen existences, dimensions, planes, entities, and even parts of our own unseen selves (vibrating at a higher rate than our normal waking brain consciousness, and so hidden from us). Mediums, mystics, and sensitives, like David Icke, are people who are vibrating at a sufficiently high rate to be aware of dimensions hidden from most of us.
There (if you'll excuse me while I come over all academic for a moment) we seem to have the basic ontology and epistemology of the system. If we now introduce elements of theology, theodicy, teleology, and eschatology into the picture, we get something still more rich and strange, which affords us a chance to see how all those other things, like ley lines, alternative therapies, feminism, corn circles, etc., fit coherently into the basic story of energy and vibrations.
The many levels of vibrating energy in the universe are not just quivering away haphazardly. They are being guided and ordered by God and his controllers in an evolutionary direction, from the less spiritual towards the more spiritual. In the case of human beings, especially, this involves lifetimes of learning and improvement through reincarnation and karma. In terms of vibrating energy, Icke seems to say, the higher the rate of vibration the more an entity's energy is spiritualised, and the more subtle and occult its existence and understanding; the lower the rate of vibration, the denser the existence and understanding of the entity.
At this point in the account, I confess, there did seem to be some obscurity in Icke's otherwise coherent explanation. For, if I understand him correctly, apart from the upward evolution of energy vibration, the question of balance is allimportant, energetically, ecologically, spiritually, psychologically and, presumably, vibrationally also. I failed to understand quite how the question of balance and the question of spiritual evolution were supposed to be interrelated. Blockages and imbalances to the earth's energy system as well as the human energy system seem to be responsible, in Icke's view, for most of our current ills. Does he mean that if either of these energy systems are put out of balance or blocked by human intervention or other means, then the appropriate spiritual evolution is thwarted or regressed? And so proper balance is the precondition of right evolution? I was not totally clear.
At all events, upsets, imbalances, and blockages by misguided humans as well as by invisible beings with "bad vibes" are, to put it bluntly, messing us up and messing up the planet (which, being intrinsically connected to the whole universe, puts the whole universe at risk and out of balance, hampering evolution). Many of the political, social, and natural phenomena of our age are either protests from these sick energy systems or attempts to heal those same sick systems. Thus Icke predicts (on the advice of his spirit-messengers) a series of natural disasters in the near future, which are both the protests of the sick planet, as well as its attempts to heal itself, however traumatically, guided by superior powers and energies. Corn circles are apparently part of this effect.
Holistic medicine and alternative therapy fit into this picture as being the appropriate methods for healing blockages in the microcosm, mankind. Such treatments affect the energy systems of the body and spirit through working on their energy channels, similar to the meridians of Chinese chi kung and the nadis of Indian yoga. The planet Earth too has its own body and spirit and its own channels of energy, the ley lines. Ancient stone circles represent special centres of energy, as where, for instance, ley lines intersect. They are akin to the Earth's acupuncture points. This was all understood by the ancients, such as the Druids, and is supposedly a knowledge still preserved in the Chinese art of geomancy, Feng Shui. Blockages in the earth's energy system may be healed, analogously to blockages in the human energy system, by healers giving out "good vibes" in various ways. David Icke is apparently such a healer. Indeed, nearly a whole chapter of his book consists of an account of how he and some companions wandered round England and Canada, clearing up "bad vibes" on the planet.
Extra-terrestrials and flying saucers are what you would probably expect them to be: superior intelligences from other parts (perhaps even other dimensions) of the universe with their appropriately sophisticated transport. They are mostly good guys, here to help unblock blockages and guide evolution, but there are a few meanies about as well. Some of these folk are apparently in Peru.
Feminism figures in the New Age system in several guises: the Earth Mother; the coming age of Aquarius; the righting of blockages of unbalanced maleness; and the replacing of the energy particles at the earth's core by a new substance, which will alter the earth's polarity from positive to negative in relation to a planet called Constabor in another solar system. This would enhance the Earth's "female, receptive, spiritual aspects and it would have a similar effect on us also." (Icke, p.129).
The great merit of Icke's book, I have suggested, is its explanation of so many New Age elements in terms of a logically coherent system. That is no mean feat, and provides a definite service not only to New Age adherents themselves, but also to the many people interested in knowing more about it and making sense of it all.
So much for the book's merits. What of its flaws? I want to suggest doubts over four main areas.
(a) The trouble with logically coherent systems of philosophy, which is what Icke presents us with, is that they are prone to the charge that they are merely "fanciful harmonies of concepts" which correspond to nothing in the real world. But if this is so, then Icke is in good company, since the same charge may be levelled at the whole history of metaphysics, from Plato to Marx. In the terms made famous by Karl Popper, all such philosophical systems are "ideologies", incapable of scientific proof. But the demand that a theory should (or even can) be capable of scientific proof – the position known as "positivism" – has come under strong attack in some recent philosophy, especially in the work of philosophers of science like T.S.Kuhn and Paul Feyerabend. The positivist demand that any true theory should be capable of scientific proof is itself a questionbegging evaluation as to what constitutes 'truth' and 'good evidence'. Science, Feyerabend has argued, is logically no different from any other ideology which stipulates its own criteria of 'truth' and 'evidence'; it just happens to be the dominant ideology in our age and our culture, and so 'enforces' its values on us. This whole area, which essentially concerns the relationship between fact, theory and value, is still very much at the forefront of contemporary philosophical enquiry. Suffice to say that the charge that Icke's theories are incapable of scientific proof in no way implies a decisive criticism of those theories; it does however imply a tangled thicket of philosophical problems about truth, value, fact, and theory.
(b) Another doubt – which probably owes something to my own prejudices – is that Icke's coherent system allows in too many elements which, while all logically possible, nevertheless strike me as frankly a bit dippy. I find it hard to swallow extra-terrestrials, flying saucers, the "ancient civilization of Mu", and the contention (revealed by spirit message) that the Earth's core is changing to a substance called 'berkelium'.
Not bad, Attarro, not bad. But couldn't most ordinary mortals have come up with similar rather vague predictions given their knowledge of the situation ?
(c) Another connected doubt concerns the way that the whole New Age mentality might seem prone to the dangers of slipping too easily into fantasy, and falling prey to various forms of charlatanry, conscious or unconscious, spiritual elitism and "energy snobbery". Personally I have no problems with the claim that people's thoughts and feelings ('vibrations', if you prefer) can affect other beings around them. But if a central part of perennial religious philosophy (which David Icke's book essentially is) concerns humility, honesty, and self-effacement, the self-conscious "healing of bad vibes" via solemnly walking round stone circles and so forth might seem to run the risk of turning into an egotistical fantasy of selfimportance. The trouble with relying on "subjective inwardness" and "feeling the vibes" in trying to divine the truth is, as Kierkegaard had the honesty to remark concerning his own championing of such "inwardness", that it is not easy to always distinguish "inner truth" from fantasy and delusion.
Whilst I by no means wish to deny that mankind has messed up the planet, I do want to protest at what seems the sheerest myopia concerning Nature's true character. Where have these people been all their lives? Are they blind? Haven't they realized yet that Nature as a whole ecological system sustains itself by its various parts destroying and devouring each other, often with appalling suffering? None of that is mankind's doing. Do they think gazelles get off on being eaten by lions, or worse, escaping wounded to die a slow and painful death? Or, given the New Age view that something like conscious energy and feeling pertains to most entities, do they believe that trees enjoy being stifled and starved by parasitic creepers?
Surely any honest person must admit that Nature is not quite so "wunnerful" as the New Age suggests, and it seems a curious kind of spiritual blindness, a sort of human-centred callousness, that would have us believe it is.
What effect will "New Age Philosophy" have on mainstream academic philosophy? I predict it will have some. Figures like Feyerabend and Heidegger have arguably already half-opened the door to it. And a growing disillusionment with the sterility of much of the current analytic, poststructuralist, and postmodernist status quo might well lead to a tentative flirtation with New Age ideas.
I rather doubt we shall see many academic philosophers guiding their students round stone circles, or silently tuning into group energies in their classes. But it is possible that there may be a whole new species of careerist "New Age" academic, perhaps culled from the ranks of jaded postmodernists, who will run breathlessly around pontificating abstractly about the dangers of abstract pontification. After all, there are already a fair few Heidegger scholars who have carved lucrative careers from hustling around the conference circuit informing everyone that Heidegger's central message is how we ought not to hustle around so much.

Sarah Fine is my go to author when I want something completely original, entertaining, well written, and imaginative.
She has yet to let me down and Impostor Queen was not an exception to her talent nor her ability.
Beautifully written, masterfully detailed and laid out, this was hard to put down and even harder to walk away from.
Sarah has a away of describing details and her worlds that not only captive but are also so seamless that you hardly know they are happening and before you know it, not only can you picture the world she created but you feel as if you are in the very heart of it, right there with the characters that are every bit as believable as the world in which they live.
This was such a fun and exciting read and I'm truly craving more and can't wait to see what will happen next. I predict this will be another outstanding, standout series from Sarah that will be sure to enthrall us all.
Definitely, it was so good!
I've read great thing about this one, which is why it sits on my every growing wish list. Thanks for sharing!
I agree, Fine really is awesome. Great review, Ali!
I am so excited you liked this Ali. I plan on listening!
Yay! I think you will love it.
Great review Kindlemom, I've heard of this author and I think it's time I read her!
I am starting this one tonight, and I can't wait. Glad to hear you loved it.
You are going to love it too!
I enjoyed this one quite a bit. Not as much as you, but it was good. I can't remember what I said in my review now, but I think the beginning was a little boring for me and the second half was really good.
It was a bit slow in the beginning for sure but it didn't take too long to pick up.
Everyone seems to love Sarah Fine. I need to pick something up by her. Glad you enjoyed this!!
Definitely do, her work is so worth it.
I really need to read this author. I swear she is on my must read list. Might have to make sure this one is on the list as it sounds perfect for me.
I'm happy to hear she is on your list of must reads, she truly is a talented writer.
Wheeee! I'll be reading this soon. I haven't finished the Shadowlands series (is that what it's called?) yet, but I couldn't pass this on up.
Guards of the Shadowlands I think is what it is called. ;) But they are all fabulous. I think you will like this one too.
Yep it hasn't been labeled yet but it is a definitely series.
I love when an author uses the perfect words to make us visualize the world with such clarity.
Me too, especially in this genre.
Definitely try her regardless of which book it is!
I had no idea there would be a new series from Sarah Fine. Thanks for putting it on my radar, Ali!
I haven't read any of Sarah's books yet, but I have a copy of Of Metal and Wishes, and I am really interested in this one, especially with how much you loved it :) Great review!
Of Metal and Wishes is a favorite, you are going to love it and the sequel, they are fantastic!
I was curious about this one! I haven't read Sarah Fine before but it sounds like I should! I love that you said this book was fun! I always look for that in my reads! I was afraid it would be depressing, what with her being a failure and all. Is there still magic in the book?
There is magic and not depressing at all!
Definitely try her and she has an adult PNR/Fantasy as well that is fabulous too!

Goldwasser de Danzig (denominado en alemán: Danziger Goldwasser) es la marca registrada de un fuerte aguardiente de 40 % que se produce en la comarca de Danzig (Gdansk) desde 1598. Se caracteriza por contener panes de oro y de plata en su interior. El nombre de este licor en alemán es compuesto y se puede traducir como 'agua' (Wasser) 'de oro' (Gold).

Contenido
La base de esta bebida se hace desde el  con hierbas y otros condimentos, tales como cardamomo, coriandro y limón, con añadidura también de pomelo, laurel, junípero, lavanda, canela, apio y nuez moscada. Todos estos ingredientes le confieren un característico sabor ligeramente dulzón. La añadidura de pequeñas virutas de oro y plata posiblemente refuerzen el sabor de la mezcla de hierbas, pero esto aún no ha sido demostrado.
