TalkTalk Blog: Staying connected during Lockdown Three
The news of more tough restrictions across much of the UK was not the New Year's present we wanted. Millions of children are now having to take lessons online again, while millions of adults are working from home once more.
It is worth remembering though that many key workers, like nurses, doctors, teachers, care workers, delivery drivers, shopkeepers and many more are still out in the field. Two of our engineers received MBEs for the work connecting COVID testing sites and hospitals. There are heroes like them across the country and we are so grateful for everything they do.
But for the tens of millions of us in the UK stuck at home, the internet has once again gained vital importance in our daily lives. The Prime Minister stated how important fast internet was on a call of business leaders I participated in earlier this week.
Our priority has been making sure our network can cope with rising demand. For the past few years, we have been making sure that it was resilient enough to withstand spikes like these and we are glad it has. 2020 saw us break our peak network data record several times, as well as setting a new record for 24-hour data usage. Internet use was up by 50% across the year, but the hard work of our engineers meant that network reliability was rarely compromised.
But it's also vital that internet is affordable – especially now, when the economy is weak, and so many people are seeing shortfalls in their income. We are proud to be a value provider. We are consistently among the best value providers in the market (while our network is also one of the most reliable).
That's important right now. We work hard to prevent unnecessary costs in order to pass on these savings to customers. Importantly, our broadband plans are uncapped – and always have been. Our customers do not have to worry about higher usage leading to higher bills. A whole family can be at home working and learning and you'll still pay the same for your broadband.
It's also important to recognise that many people may find themselves in financial difficulty, even for short periods. We have introduced extended payment plans and have put in place support for anyone struggling to pay their bill due to Covid-19. We've also put in place a dedicated UK support team for vulnerable customers, and that group (plus those self-isolating) are given, where possible, alternative methods of communication if priority repairs to their services can't be carried out due to Covid-19.
One thing that has rightly got attention this week is the effect of COVID lockdowns on children's education. Not being able to go to school should not prevent a child getting the education they deserve. All children should have access to the internet to benefit from online learning. That includes those households who do not have a fixed connection and who may be struggling to afford access to fast, reliable broadband at home. As a value provider, we understand that as much as anyone.
It's a complicated problem and one that is hard to fix overnight. However, as of this week we are now in discussions with both national and local government, the regulator Ofcom as well as Openreach, our network operator, to find solutions.
One thing we would like to discuss with government is creating a voucher scheme for broadband for families having to home school, who don't currently have it but might find it hard to pay a commercial rate. We are calling for the government to consider creating a vouchers scheme that would last as long as the COVID pandemic is with us. Such a scheme would be an expansion of a pilot programme that we are already involved in alongside the DWP to provide fixed connections to digitally excluded jobseekers in the North West. At a time when connectivity has never been more important it is vital that we explore sustainable solutions to supporting school children and their parents. We would welcome discussions with Government on the programme design and how best to encourage widespread take-up of the scheme.
In the meantime, I would like to thank my colleagues who have been working incredibly hard in recent weeks. It's a fluid situation, and we are still waiting for the beginning of the end of this crisis. But one thing is sure: we will strive to keep you connected to the things and the people that matter most to you.

Zeldin Defeats Gershon To Win Third Term in Congress

Democrats took back the House of Representatives after eight years in the minority on Election Day but the party's momentum did not extend to the First Congressional District on New York.
Incumbent Republican Lee Zeldin of Shirley, a Trump ally seeking his third two-year term, easily turned back his Democratic challenger, Perry Gershon of East Hampton, 130,919 to 115,796, or 53 percent to 47 percent.
"I realize I can't be all things to all people," Mr. Zeldin said in a prepared statement Tuesday night. "That's impossible, but I look forward to working with absolutely everyone and anyone to find common ground however possible to move our community, and great nation better."
With the battle for Congress seen nationwide as a referendum on the divisive rhetoric and hardline policies of President Donald Trump, voters in the western and central reaches of Suffolk County — a majority of whom voted for him in 2016 — continued to show their support.
But on the South Fork, a majority of voters in all 19 election districts in East Hampton Town supported Mr. Gershon, giving him 5,818 votes to Mr. Zeldin's 3,174, or 64.7 percent to 35.3 percent.
In Southampton Town, the first-time candidate and retired businessman carried 25 of 42 election districts, taking 52.1 percent of the vote, 10,975 to 10,072. Most of Mr. Zeldin's support in Southampton Town came from west of the Shinnecock Canal. On the North Fork, Southold Town gave Mr. Zeldin the nod with 52 percent of its vote, 5,126 to 4,273.
The balloting was especially blue in the Sag Harbor area's election districts, from Northwest Woods to Sagaponack and Noyac, where Mr. Gershon walloped the congressman, 4,886 votes to 1,696.

Turnout in the race was high for a non-presidential midterm election, with the vote total exceeding those cast in Mr. Zeldin's 2014 win over incumbent Democrat Tim Bishop by 43 percent. He garnered 94,035 votes to Mr. Bishop's 78,772, a margin of 54.4 to 45.6 percent, about a point greater than Mr. Zeldin's margin of victory on Tuesday. But the total was well below the 323,777 votes cast in 2016, when Donald Trump topped the Republican ticket. Mr. Zeldin won then with 58 percent of the vote over former Southampton Town supervisor Anna Throne-Holst.
"We brought respect to the Democratic side of NY-1," Mr. Gershon said in a statement on Facebook Tuesday night, "and waged a great battle. I suspect when the dust settles and the absentee ballots are counted, we will have closed the gap to less than 5 percent, with more than 125,000 votes in total. That was a noble effort and I am honored to have had the support of so many of you.
Labeled "Park Avenue Perry" by the Zeldin campaign hours after he won the June 26 Democratic primary — in which he did not carry East Hampton town — Mr. Gershon was a longtime second homeowner in East Hampton until last year, when he registered to vote here in order to mount his run for Congress.
He cast Mr. Zeldin during the campaign as a surrogate for the Trump administration who was out of touch with the voters. "My opponent is a skilled lawyer, a seasoned politician and he's become an expert at self-promotion on cable news networks," he said at a League of Women Voters debate in Hampton Bays on October 29, the only public debate held by the candidates on the South Fork. "But is he still in touch with the people of this district and the issues that concerns them … Things like affordable health care, protecting our environment, making sure we have high wages right in Suffolk County and lower taxes?"
In his Facebook statement Tuesday, Mr. Gershon said, "Our battle does not end here. We fought for affordable healthcare and gun safety laws, for protecting the environment and a woman's right to choose. And a repeal of the cap on SALT deductions, double taxation. These causes outlast our race for a congressional seat. And I am most happy that at least our party took back the House to put a check on President Trump."
In his statement, Mr. Zeldin said, "I could not be more grateful, and humbled to have your support. I would also like to thank my opponent and his supporters on a hard-fought campaign.It has been a privilege to serve as your congressman for the past four years, and I am energized to continue to work hard on your behalf. In addition to helping grow our economy and strengthen our national security, I have advocated on behalf of our veterans, fought to protect our environment, worked hard to destroy MS-13, and end the heroin and opioid abuse epidemic…just to name a few. I call this just a start.
"As a community and country, we must do a better job unifying to solve important challenges in front of us. That doesn't mean that we shouldn't ever disagree with each other and productively debate substantive issues, because that is one of the reasons why this is the greatest nation in the world …
"I will continue working to advance my New Era of American Strength agenda to protect America's security at home and abroad, help grow our economy, support our veterans and first responders, improve the quality of education, repair our nation's infrastructure, improve healthcare, and safeguard our environment."

Intel 10th Gen Review: The Core i9-10900K is indeed the world's fastest gaming CPU
Intel's 10th gen Comet Lake S CPUs don't take the crown in multi-core performance but they close the gap enough that you may want to actually consider them.
By Gordon Mah Ung
Executive Editor, PCWorld |
Gordon Mah Ung
What is Core i9-10900K?
A new socket?!
Core i9-10900K Rendering Performance
Core i9-10900K Encoding Performance
Core i9-10900K Compression Performance
Core i9-10900K Gaming Performance
What about power consumption?
Intel's 10th gen Core i9-10900K is—without a doubt—exactly as Intel has described it: "the world's fastest gaming CPU."
Intel's problem has been weaknesses outside of gaming, and its overall performance value compared to AMD's Ryzen 3000 chips. With the Core i9-10900K, Intel doesn't appear to be eliminating that gap, but it could get close enough that you might not care.
Despite its 10th-gen naming, Intel's newest desktop chips continue to be built on the company's aging 14nm process. How old is it? It was first used with the 5th-gen Core i7-5775C desktop chip from 2015. Many tricks, optimizations, and much binning later, we have the flagship consumer Core i9-10900K, announced April 30. The CPU features 10 cores and Hyper-Threading for a total of 20 threads, with a list price of $488.
The Core i9-10900K does bring a few changes. Intel officials said the chip uses a thinner die and thinner solder thermal interface material (STIM) to improve thermal dissipation. Intel also had to make a thicker heat spreader (that little metal lid to keep you from crushing the delicate die).
A 10th gen Core i9-10900K (right) next to an 8th-gen Core i7-8700K (left). There are subtle differences in the "wings" that the load plate clamps onto, and the notches in the substrate are on opposite corners.
Why make the die and STIM thinner, but the heat spreader thicker? The reason is cost. Intel said it had to keep the height of the heat spreader on all of its CPUs the same so they'd be compatible with existing cooling hardware. Intel officials did say the materials used for the heat spreader help compensate for that compromise, so overall the new chip is better at power dissipation.
The 10th-gen Comet Lake S CPUs feature a thinner die and thermal interface material, plus a thicker heat spreader to help improve heat dissipation.
It's true: Intel's new 10th-gen CPUs bring with them a new LGA1200 socket that is—of course—incompatible with the previous 9th-gen CPUs. Intel took flack for introducing a new chipset with its 8th-gen desktop chips that was incompatible with the previous generation, so you can understand the anger for those who just want to upgrade the CPU, not also the motherboard.
The backside of an LGA1151 8th-gen Core i7-8700K (left), and an LGA1200 10th-gen Core i7-10900K (right).
The LGA1200 socket and new Z490 don't seem to change much. You still install the CPU almost the same way, and if you have an existing LGA1151 cooler, it'll still fit. Sadly, rumors of PCIe 4.0 on the X490 proved untrue, leaving Intel at a disadvantage compared to Ryzen 3000 chips that have the faster interface for SSDs and GPUs.
A new LGA1200 socket is required to run a 10th-gen Comet Lake S CPU.
For this review, we stick with Intel's flagship, the $488 Core i9-10900K. Its natural competitor is AMD's Ryzen 9 3900X with 12 cores and 24 threads. Its list price is $499, but its street price as of this writing is actually more like $410 on AmazonRemove non-product link. The Ryzen 9 3900X comes with a decent air cooler, too.
The only other CPU we'd compare would be the Ryzen 9 3950X, but with a street price of $720 on AmazonRemove non-product link (as of this writing) the math doesn't work. So we'll stick with the 12-core Ryzen 9 3900X. It was tested on an MSI X570 MEG Godlike with 16GB of DDR4/3600 in dual-channel mode. We typically use the same SSD on all platforms, but we feel that's unfair to AMD, which can run PCIe 4, so we used a Corsair MP600 PCIe 4.0 drive.
For the Core i9-10900K, we used an Asus ROG Maximus VII Extreme board with 16GB of DDR4/3200 in dual-channel mode and a Samsung 960P SSD.
Both systems used Windows 10 1909, identical GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition cards, and NZXT Kraken X62 coolers with fans set to 100 percent. Both boards were run open-case, with matching desk fans blowing cool air directly onto the graphics cards and the boards' socket area. All systems used the same drivers, the latest UEFI's, and the latest Windows security updates.
Due to time and other constraints, we ran the boards with MCE and PBO set to Auto, and 2nd-level XMP and AMP profiles selected. While these factory settings are beyond what is stock, we think it's close to what a consumer see will see out of the box.
The 10th-gen Core i9-10900K sits in the LGA1200 socket of an Asus ROG Maximus Extreme VII.
We'll kick this off where we normally do: Maxon's Cinebench R20. It's a 3D modelling test built on the company's Cinema4D engine, and it's integrated into such products as Adobe After Effects. Like most 3D modelling apps, more cores and more threads typically yield more performance.
Our results for the Core i9-10900K and Ryzen 9 3900X are fresh, but we decided to sprinkle in results from previous reviews for more context. Although those older results are not using the latest version of Windows, Cinebench is very reliable. The R20 version uses AVX2 and AVX512 and takes about three times as long to run as the older R15 version. That means any boost performance should matter less.
Remember these results, because for the most part it won't change too much as we move through multi-threaded performance: Cores matter. The Ryzen 9 3900X's 12 cores prevail over the the Core i9-10900K's 10. If it's any consolation, the latest Core chip fares noticeably better than the Core i9-9900K and Core i9-9900KS, which were both handcuffed by their "mere" 8 cores.
The 10-core wasn't expected to out gun AMD's 12-core but at least it's closer.
Switching Cinebench R20 to single-threaded performance, constrain the load to a single CPU core. The results are so close that no would or should care. We expected the Core i9-10900K to have a little more of an edge, but maybe it's the luck of the draw.
Single-core performance among the consumer chips is pretty much dead-even.
Corona is an unbiased photo-realistic 3D renderer, which means it takes no shortcuts in how it renders a scene. It loves cores and threads, so the results here follow the trend, but the Core i9 finishes just 7 percent shy of the Ryzen 9. In Cinebench R20, the Ryzen 9 had a larger 15-percent advantage.
The Corona renderer closes the gap close between the Ryzen 9 and Core i9 to about 7 percent.
The Chaos Group's V-Ray Next is like Cinema4D's engine, and it's a biased rendererer—it takes shortcuts to finish projects so you can, you know, win an Academy Award like the V-Ray has. It loves thread count, so guess what: The Ryzen 9 comes out about 14 percent faster than the Core i9.
V-Ray is a biased renderer like Cinema4D and performance tracks closely with the Ryzen 9 about 14 percent faster than the newest Core i9.
Our last rendering test measures ray tracing performance using the latest version of POV Ray. The Ryzen comes in almost 17 percent faster than the Core i9. That's pretty close to the thread-count advantage the Ryzen 9 has, which equals 20 percent more.
POV Ray puts the Ryzen 9 ahead of the Core i9 by almost 17 percent.
Switching POV Ray to single-threaded performance, the Ryzen 9 squeezes by the Core i9, which surprised us—we thought the Core i9 would take the lead.
Single-threaded performance of the Ryzen 9 is just under 3 percent faster than the Core i9.
Video encoding needs fast CPUs, too. That's why we use the latest version of HandBrake to convert a 4K video short to 1080p using H.265. Using the CPU to finish the task, the 12-core Ryzen 9 finished with a 16-percent advantage over the 10-core Core i9. So far, that's pretty much everything we've expected.
We use Handbrake to transcode a 4K video using the HEVC/H.265 codec.
Our next test uses Cinegy's Cinescore to assess CPU and GPU performance across several dozen broadcast industry profiles from SD to 8K, using codecs from H.264, to MPEG2, XDCAM and AVC Ultra as well as Nvidia H.265 and Daniel 2. It runs entirely in RAM to remove storage as a bottleneck. (Note: The version of Cinescore we use is older and no longer works without setting an older date on the PC—the version has timed out the codec license.)
While the Core i9 doesn't win, it gets awfully close to the Ryzen 9. This could mean Cinescore and its CODECs don't care that much about thread count, or the higher clock speeds of the Core i9 may be of more value. Sorry, Ryzen 9 fans.
It's too close for comfort for the Ryzen 9: The Core i9 comes within 3 percent of its performance.
Our next test is a video test, but not in a traditional sense. While standard encoding or transcoding isn't all that smart in how it downsamples or upsamples video, Topaz Lab's Video Enhance AI claims to look at every frame and use machine learning inferencing to decide what will make each frame look better on the upscale, based on studying other videos. For the test, we take a two-minute family video shot on a Kodak video camera and upscale it from 720p to 1080p, using the app's Gaia HQ preset.
This upscale would typically be done on a GPU, where it would be significantly faster, but we ordered it to use the CPU cores for the upscale. Topaz Labs uses Intel's own OpenVINO for the Deep Learning. Doing a frame-by-frame upscale isn't easy and still takes literally hours to complete. The Ryzen 9 finishes with about a five-percent advantage over the Core i9. Too close for comfort, but a win is a win.
Topaz Lab's Video Enhance AI uses machine learning to decide how to upscale video.
Ryzen's doing great so far, but compression performance shows a different side. Keep reading to find out.

Barbara Rogal, Rodef Shalom Sisterhood Gift CornerPhotos by Toby Tabachnick
Business may not be as brisk as it once was, but a dedicated corps of Jewish women is keeping Pittsburgh's synagogue gift shops alive and well.
That's good news for shoppers who have become accustomed to purchasing Judaica and other gifts online but who may find some splendid surprises tucked away in the brick and mortar walls of these specialty boutiques.
Take Temple Emanuel of South Hills. Managed by Rita Zolot for the last nine years, its gift shop offers a wide selection of pieces by metal artist Michael Aram, including menorahs, challah knives and kiddish cups. Temple Emanuel is the only synagogue gift shop in the city to feature Aram's work so prominently; and because the pieces are related to Jewish rituals, customers are not required to pay sales tax, which can provide a nice savings, Zolot said.

Although Zolot calls herself "the managing volunteer," she has a committee of many other women of all ages who offer their time to help out in the shop, which is open Sundays, 9:30 a.m. to noon; Mondays, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.; and Wednesdays, 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., and by appointment. In addition to the Aram collection, Temple Emanuel's shop focuses on other Judaica and jewelry either made in Israel or by American Jewish artists.
While out in the South Hills, a shopper might want to head over to Scott Township to Beth El's Judaica Shop, where Beth Pomerantz leads a crew of Sisterhood members in running a store with a nice selection of jewelry, bar mitzvah gifts, Jewish toys — including a very cute magnetic shul — and pieces by metal sculptor Gary Rosenthal.
"We have a little bit of everything," Pomerantz said.
One thing that catches the eye is the store's large selection of kosher wine, which includes even harder to find vintages like Gilgal from the Golan Heights Winery.
"We sell the wine as an accommodation to our customers, who might not find what they want at the state stores," Pomerantz said.
The store is open during Hebrew school hours: Wednesdays from 4:15 to 6:15 p.m.; and Sundays from 9:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. There are also special pre-holiday hours and selected Mondays from 1:15 to 3 p.m., and by appointment.
Beth El's Judaica shop, like the shops in most other Pittsburgh synagogues, has experienced a decrease in foot traffic in recent years, according to Pomerantz, but once someone wanders into the shop, she is likely to come back.
"When anyone comes in, there is a promise of a return customer, because we have some really nice things," Pomerantz said.
Heading through the Fort Pitt Tunnel, over the bridge, through Oakland and into Shadyside, shoppers will find the Rodef Shalom Sisterhood Gift Corner, a well-stocked boutique that is open six days a week: Monday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Tuesday-Friday 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.; Wednesday, also 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.; and Sunday, 9:30 a.m. to noon.
Managed by Elaine Rybski, the shop is run by many volunteers, including Barbara Rogal, who has helped out in the store for the last 17 years.
In addition to a vast array of Judaica, including menorahs, kiddush cups and seder plates, the shop offers many unique items handmade exclusively for the store by the congregation's Sisterhood Sewing Group. Among the extensive selection of pieces are baby sweaters and hats, quilts, blankets, American Girl doll clothes, earrings, scarves and challah and matzah covers.
"We have things here that you can't find anywhere else," Rogal said.
Rodef Shalom's shop may be an exception to the trend of decreasing business at synagogue stores.
"We've been doing a better business the last few years," Rogal said, attributing the increase in sales, in part, to the more extensive hours of operation.
"We're here six days a week, we have a variety of things on-hand, we have a large space, and we get lots of foot traffic," she explained.
Rodef Shalom also sells wine, as well as custom invitations for events.
Two small shops in Squirrel Hill — the Women of Temple Sinai Gift Shop and Beth Shalom's Sisterhood Judaica Shop — each carry a variety of Judaic items and jewelry and also a few specialty items.
Susan Cohen, who has managed the shop for Temple Sinai for about a year, said business has been declining due to shoppers switching to online stores. She and her gift shop committee are hoping to change all that by increasing their shop's own online presence, and they already have a Facebook page up and running.
The Temple Sinai shop is open Wednesdays, 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., Sundays from 9:30 a.m. to noon, and by appointment. Hours are extended prior to Chanukah, when the shop typically sees an uptick in business.
In addition to a nice selection of apple and honey plates and jars, and other ritual items, the shop offers a variety of scarves in a range of price points, which Cohen said are "big sellers." Baby gifts, b'nai mitzvah gifts, books and CDs are also on hand, and Cohen noted that she is happy to place special orders for customers.
At Beth Shalom, hours are limited to Fridays from 10 a.m. to noon, and by appointment. The shop is run by a committee of five volunteers, including Barbara Kaiserman, who has been working in the shop for the last 14 years.
"We used to be open three days a week," Kaiserman said. "It's not like it used to be. People used to come in to buy all their gifts for bar mitzvahs and other things. Now, most people buy things online."
Still, the "shop has a good reputation," she said, and people do come in seeking "a lovely gift because they know we have nice things."
The biggest sellers at Beth Shalom's shop are mezuzot and holiday-related Judaica.
"Chanukah is still a very busy time," she said.
Unique items offered at Beth Shalom include clever wine bottle covers and kippot and jewelry handmade by members. The shop also sells Ahava skin care products from Israel.
Profits from the sales of all the shops go to fund programs and special projects at their respective congregations.
Things may be more quiet these days, but Kaiserman is pleased the congregation still supports the shop, and the shop is able to, in turn, help support the congregation.
"The vendors say that a lot of synagogues have closed in the last five years," Kaiserman said. "We're lucky we're still open."

VeriSign Shuts Down Site Finder - InternetNews.
VeriSign Friday confirmed that it will comply with a demand issued by the Internet Corp. for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and suspend its controversial Site Finder service.
ICANN, which is charged with ensuring the stability of the domain name system , issued its demand in a letter to VeriSign Friday morning.
"ICANN is disappointed that VeriSign has not suspended the service despite the widespread reports of adverse effects from these changes," ICANN President and CEO Paul Twomey said in a statement Friday. "Although ICANN takes this step reluctantly, we are left with no choice but to enforce the provisions of our contract with VeriSign."
While VeriSign maintains that the Internet has not been affected by the service, which is essentially a redirect service for end users who misspell a Web site address or email address, the company said it would comply.
"Without so much as a hearing, ICANN today formally asked us to shut down the Site Finder service. We will accede to the request while we explore all of our options," said Russell Lewis, executive vice president of VeriSign's Naming and Directory Services Group. "During the more than two weeks that Site Finder has been operational, there is no data to indicate that the core operation of the Domain Name System or stability of the Internet has been adversely affected. ICANN is using anecdotal and isolated issues to attempt to regulate non-registry services, but in the interests of further working with the technical community we will temporarily suspend Site Finder."
The Site Finder saga began when the service went into effect on Sept. 15. VeriSign implemented the service through changes to the .com and .net core domain name system (DNS). In the past, a "Page Not Found" or email bounce from the sender's ISP would have been the result.
With the Site Finder service, errors now go to VeriSign's Site Finder Web page, a click-per-view search engine that programmers claim gathers personal information. The Site Finder page has become one of the more heavily traveled sites on the Web because of the service. ICANN said the "wildcard" VeriSign deployed has "adversely affected anti-spam software, email deliveries, and core DNS operations, as well as raised privacy concerns."
Lewis, on the other hand said this raises the issue as to whether innovation on the Internet will continue, or be stifled.
"The next several weeks will be a test as to whether innovation will occur within the Internet infrastructure," he said. "The fact is that while the Internet has been used for innovative purposes over the last decade, the core infrastructure has suffered from a lack of innovation. VeriSign will argue vigorously for innovation because it not only improves the Internet user experience but has implications for the vitality of the DNS system and economic competitiveness and job growth."
He also noted that the Site Finder service has been used more than 40 million times since its debut, adding that it had been well received "by millions of Internet users who appreciate getting navigation tools as opposed to the 'dead end' of an error message."
ICANN has scheduled a special meeting of its Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SECSAC) on Oct. 7 to gather information about the ramifications of VeriSign's service. The organization's Internet Architecture Board (IAB) is also investigating.
VeriSign has implemented its own Technical Review Panel, comprised of Internet community leaders, who it said would help it gather and analyze feedback about Site Finder. VeriSign said the panel will assist VeriSign in the long-term implementation of Site Finder.

Home Nation NDFP's observation on North Korea – US Summit in Singapore
NDFP's observation on North Korea – US Summit in Singapore
BicolToday.com
OSLO, Norway — The National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) welcomes the historic meeting between Chairman Kim Jong Un of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and President Donald J. Trump of the United States held last June 12 in Singapore.
According to the joint statement of the two heads of state, they "conducted a comprehensive, in-depth, and sincere exchange of opinions on the issues related to the establishment of new U.S.-DPRK relations and the building of a lasting and robust peace regime on the Korean Peninsula. President Trump committed to provide security guarantees to the DPRK, and Chairman Kim Jong Un reaffirmed his firm and unwavering commitment to complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."
The document includes four major terms agreed on, albeit with no details on implementation:
The US and DPRK commit to establish new bilateral relations in pursuit of peace and prosperity.
Both countries will work toward building a lasting and stable peace regime on the Korean peninsula.
In accordance with the April 27, 2018 Panmunjom Declaration, the DPRK commits to work toward complete denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
Both countries commit to recovering POW/MIA remains, including the immediate repatriation of those already identified.
In a press conference following the historic summit, Trump pledged to halt U.S. war games with south Korea, calling them "tremendously expensive" and "provocative". This is a belated acknowledgement of what the DPRK has been saying all along – that US imperialist military actions in the region is an existential threat to the people of Korea and that the DPRK's nuclear weapons program is meant to deter that threat.
The June 12 Summit in Singapore is the first ever meeting between the leaders of these two states since the DPRK was founded in 1948. It caps a whirlwind of diplomatic offensives by Pyongyang which saw Kim Jong Un meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping last March, south Korean President Moon Jae-in in April, and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in May. All these efforts demonstrate the resolve of the DPRK's leadership to build goodwill and foster conditions for reconciliation and peace in the Korean Peninsula and the region.
The Joint Statement of Kim and Trump in Singapore and subsequent pronouncements from Trump appear to signify a departure from US imperialist policy of unbridled belligerence against the DPRK. In reality the US was forced to temper its stance because the people of Korea on both sides of the 38thparallel are clearly demanding peace and reunification. President Moon has already responded to this popular clamor by reciprocating Chairman Kim's overtures. The US is wary that it's longstanding neocolony in East Asia and host of the largest overseas US military base would continue to warm up not only to the DPRK but also to China, which is now south Korea's largest trading partner. In December 2017, Xi Jinping and Moon Jae-in agreed on four principles for resolving the security crisis in the Korean peninsula: (1) the unacceptability of war; (2) a firm commitment to denuclearization in the Peninsula; (3) peaceful resolution through dialogue and negotiation; and (3) the need to improve inter-Korean relations. By maintaining its all-out war stance against the DPRK, the US would risk isolating itself even from its ally in the south.
Nevertheless, the "deep state" and neoconservative militarists in the US are determined to trample on the seeds of peace in the Korean peninsula. Notwithstanding Trump and Kim's Joint Statement, they are demanding the complete dismantling and elimination of the DPRK's ballistic missiles and weapons programs even without security guarantees in place – which is nothing short of complete capitulation to US imperialism. These forces are not interested in a diplomatic resolution to the "nuclear threat" in the Korean Peninsula because it provides the justification for maintaining U.S. regional hegemony and military power projection right under China's belly. The tensions in Korea also bolster U.S. public support for ramping up military expenditures for missile and other weapons systems that feed the military-industrial complex.
The National Democratic Front of the Philippines is one with the people of Korea in demanding an end to US imperialist intervention in Korea, the withdrawal of US troops and weapons from south Korea, and an end to all forms of sanctions and provocations against the DPRK. It is up to the people of Korea, with the support of peoples of other countries in the region and beyond, to defend and assert their right to self-determination, move ever closer to reunification, plant the seeds of just and lasting peace in all of Korea, and nurture them to fruition.

What Level of Poverty Does St. Louis Experience?
The latest statistics show that 41.3% of all children in St. Louis (city) were in families below the poverty level.
In 2009, the USDA's report on Household Food Security in US determined that 50.1 million Americans, including 17 million children, lack the means to get enough nutritious food on a regular basis or are food insecure.
The current economic climate has created a 20% increase in demand on services from Operation Food Search, and this only represents a portion of the increased need. When a family is challenged financially they are forced to make difficult decisions about what to pay first. Do they pay their rent/mortgage, buy medicine, or keep up on the utilities? Most of the time, buying food is one of the last priorities because it is an expense they can "control." When this happens families become "food insecure", which means they don't know where their next meal will come from.

A dishwasher can make washing your dishes much easier than doing them by hand. The machine gets the water to a high enough temperature that germs and bacteria are killed during the wash cycle. There are many people who have no idea how to load a dishwasher properly though. It is important to take the time to make sure that you use your dishwasher the right away, if you want your dishes to come out as clean as they can possibly be. Use the following guide to learn how to properly use your dishwasher.
It is important to scrape any food from your dishes and rinse them off before loading them into the dishwasher. While the dishwasher is powerful enough to remove stuck on food from the dishes, the food that is removed will fall to the bottom of the dishwasher and often get stuck in the components that make it work properly. Many dishwasher owners never take the time to clean out their dishwasher so the food that collects in the bottom can cause the dishwasher to stop working properly.
When you are loading the dishwasher, you want to take the time to make sure that the spinning arms that have the jets built into them are able to circulate without anything blocking their movement. Many people try to jam as many dishes into the dishwasher as they can at one time to ensure that they only have to do one load of dishes a day. When the rotating arms cannot move freely, they can be damaged and need to be replaced. It is best to push both the top and bottom rack into the dishwasher and attempt to manually turn the rotating arm located under the bottom of the top rack before turning on the dishwasher. This will ensure it can move freely and that your dishes will get as clean as possible.
While many dishwashers offer you the ability to use a heated dryer that is built into the dishwasher to dry your dishes, this dryer is not always the best option to choose. The dryer will use a lot of electricity, which could cause your electric bill to go sky high when you use it. Simply crack the dishwasher door after washing the dishes to allow them to air dry.
If you use the tips provided, you can rest assured that your dishes will always come out clean and that your dishwasher will last as long as possible. Loading and unloading your dishwasher is much easier than washing your dishes by hand so it is best to take care of your dishwasher as well as you can. If, however, you find that you do need new a new dishwasher, call an appliance shop, like Gringer & Sons Inc, to find the best one to keep your dishes clean.

Q: C++ importing and using ADO I have two short questions involving importing and using ADO in a C++ project. I am not experienced with ADO in any form.
First, for the time being the database aspect of my program need only run on Windows. Is it enough to test if _WIN32 or _WIN64 is defined before running ADO specific code, or are there better approaches? I am using Visual C++ 2010 Express as my compiler.
Second, I am following this page as my guide. I've included the #import statement for msado15.dll. The #import directive is underlined red, and the error I receive when hovering over it says "...cannot open source file path/to/msado15.tlh," and any ADO stuff I copy into the source stays red underlined. I've checked the directory listed in the error message and msado15.tlh is there, if that matters. Also, the program compiles (it crashes though after executing, but that's something else I'll diagnose separately).
I'm pretty clueless about why this is happening. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

A: I had the same problem when I started with ADO. (red underlined, can't find...)
It drove me nuts but after simply compiling, the underline went away and everything worked fine.
I use
   #import "C:\Program\Delade filer\System\ado\msado15.dll" rename_namespace("USEADO"),rename("EOF","EndOfFile")
in my header.
In cpp eg:
#include "stdafx.h"

int SQLsetInfo(THING *Thing, GADGET *Gadget)
{

HRESULT hr;
USEADO::_ConnectionPtr connection;
USEADO::_RecordsetPtr recordset;

 //Initialize COM
    if(FAILED(hr = CoInitialize(NULL)))
    {   MessageBox( NULL, L"Initialize COM Failed", L"MyProg!",MB_ICONEXCLAMATION |MB_OK);
        //Do something, eg shut down DB stuff and continue without or exit program
        //Insert error handeler below
        return hr;//TODO Ad error handeling see line 149
    }

if(FAILED(hr = connection.CreateInstance(__uuidof(USEADO::Connection))))
    {   MessageBox( NULL, L"Create connection instance Failed", L"MyProg!",MB_ICONEXCLAMATION |MB_OK);
        //Do something, eg shut down DB stuff and continue without or exit program
        return hr;
    }

if(FAILED(hr = recordset.CreateInstance(__uuidof(USEADO::Recordset))))
    {   MessageBox( NULL, L"Create recordset instance Failed", L"MyProg!",MB_ICONEXCLAMATION |MB_OK);
        //Do something, eg shut down DB stuff and continue without or exit program

I'm not an expert in C++, but this works fine for me. Hope it helps you to. If anyone else here has suggestions/critic to the above snippet I'm looking forward to it....

A: The way we do it, we add the following to out VC++ Directories / Include files
$(ProgramFiles)\Common Files\System\ado

And then we import like this
in the header:
#import "msado15.dll" rename_namespace("ADO") rename("EOF", "EndOfFile") no_implementation

At the top of the cpp file
#import "msado15.dll" rename_namespace("ADO") rename("EOF", "EndOfFile") implementation_only

A little different, since we prefer to keep the namespace, and use a different EOF rename.

We've all heard of the famous lawsuit against a well-known fast food chain in which the customer spilled hot coffee in her lap. Did you know the jury awarded her nearly $3,000,000 in damages? The typical limit for such a suit under your general liability policy is $1,000,000. Where would the additional $2,000,000 come from if this were your business? The answer is, without a commercial umbrella policy, it would come from you!
A commercial umbrella policy provides an extra layer of protection in case you are facing legal action that will exceed your general liability limit. Cooper's Insurance can provide valuable commercial umbrella coverage with limits of $2,000,000, $5,000,000, $10,000,000 and more at costs that are generally very affordable. Please contact us to learn more about this important piece of your insurance portfolio.
One more thing…take another look at your lease. All landlords require you to have liability insurance but many are requiring limits for their tenants of $5,000,000 or more due to the ever increasing amounts of settlements and jury awards. A commercial umbrella policy will ensure that you're in compliance. If you find yourself needing more liability coverage to satisfy your lease requirements we at Cooper's Insurance can help.


Newsweek is set to publish a highly embarrassing report on Sen. John McCain, revealing that the McCains have failed to pay taxes on their beach-front condo in La Jolla, California, for the last four years and are currently in default, The Huffington Post has learned.
Under California law, once a residential property is in default for five years, it can be sold at a tax sale to recover the unpaid taxes for the taxpayers.
The McCains own at least seven homes through a variety of trusts and corporations controlled by Cindy McCain.

Q: Does removal of "OPTIONSVerbHandler" and "TRACEVerbHandler" kill the website on iis? I have application hosting on IIS server. I was told to remove "OPTIONSVerbHandler" and "TRACEVerbHandler" from the IIS as a security measure. I just wanted to confirm that Does removal of "OPTIONSVerbHandler" and "TRACEVerbHandler" kill the website on iis? Also when i checked IIS handler mapping i couldn't find "TRACEVerbHandler" instead i found "TraceHandler-Integrated". so is this the one that i am looking for?
Thanks in advance.

A: Removing OPTIONSVerbHandler might cause a problem if you have CORS setup. Removing TRACEVerbHandler won't hurt anything, it will just disable tracing from working. And yes you want to remove TraceHandler-Integrated too, and TraceHandler-Integrated-4.0 as well in case it's installed on the server.
