Northern Ireland's Cyber Security Sector Continues to Flourish with Major Investments by Anomali and CSIT
Pictured let to right are Dr Godfrey Gaston, Operations Director, CSIT, Hugh Njemanze, Anomali, and Alastair Hamilton, CEO Invest NI.
As we announce today major new investments in Northern Ireland's cyber security sector we can reflect upon its significant contribution to the NI economy.
Invest Northern Ireland today announced major investments which will bolster Northern Ireland's cyber security sector. US based cyber security firm Anomali will create 120 new jobs with the opening of its European Research and Development Labs in Belfast and the Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT) will generate investment of £38.5m in research & development, which will encourage the growth of the cyber security sector here.
"Northern Ireland is enjoying a growing international reputation as a region of expertise and knowledge in cyber security."
Welcoming the investments, Alastair Hamilton, CEO of Invest NI said: "Northern Ireland is enjoying a growing international reputation as a region of expertise and knowledge in cyber security. Today's announcement of both a new inward investor, the Anomali R&D Labs, and a significant investment by CSIT will only see this reputation continue to grow."
Northern Ireland is the number one location in the world for cyber security inward investment (FT fDI Markets 2013-16) and the number one global destination for US cyber security companies with an eye for international expansion.
"It is no surprise that Californian based Anomali has chosen to invest here based on our world-class credentials," continued Alastair.
"This significant investment by Anomali will create 120 new jobs over the next three years, generating £4.1million in additional salaries for the Northern Ireland economy. The roles on offer will provide valuable opportunities for talented graduates and experienced staff across a range of disciplines, including software engineering and sales."
With global headquarters in Redwood City, California, Anomali provides cyber security solutions to help organisations identify and respond to security threats. Anomali aggregates and optimizes threat intelligence regarding malicious cyber actors, delivering this information to organisations to detect threats in real time.
"We are pleased to make Belfast the new base for developing new products and scaling our business"
- Hugh Njemanze, Anomali
CEO of Anomali, Hugh Njemanze said: "Anomali has emerged as the leader in threat intelligence solutions, which has driven our rapid growth. As our customer base expanded globally we looked for ways we can grow our own operations and serve the needs of the market. We are pleased to make Belfast the new base for developing new products and scaling our business in Europe and beyond."
Invest NI has offered Anomali support of £780,000 towards the new jobs which are expected to be in place by the end of 2019, with an average salary of £34,445. 23 of the positions are already in place.
"With the support of Invest NI, we have committed to making this strategic investment in Northern Ireland to drive innovation and support our global ambitions. The area is recognised globally for its quality of talent and we look forward to recruiting across a range of roles in the coming months, to deliver services for our increasing customer base in Europe and the US", commented Hugh Njemanze.
"CSIT's contribution to research and development enhances Northern Ireland's reputation as a world leader in cyber security "
CSIT, the UK's lead university centre for cyber security research, is based at Queen's University Belfast and encourages collaboration among academics, researchers, engineers, industry and government to accelerate the results of cyber and physical security research through to commercial application.
Invest NI has offered CSIT £5.5m of assistance to support the next stage of its research strategy.
Alastair Hamilton continued, "CSIT's investment in R&D encompasses a very complex technology project which will be undertaken by a team of experts over a five year period and will help to grow the cyber security cluster in Northern Ireland.
"CSIT's contribution to research and development enhances Northern Ireland's reputation as a world leader in cyber security and has seen the development of some of the latest technologies and solutions to help businesses tackle the continued threats from operating in a digital environment.
"The economic benefits of the cyber security industry to Northern Ireland are evident which is why we have identified it as one of our growth priorities within our new Business Strategy."
Dr Godfrey Gaston, Director of CSIT at Queen's said: "CSIT's position as the UK's national Innovation and Knowledge Centre for cyber security research reflects the critical mass of researchers who are working with industrially experienced engineers to accelerate the translation of new innovations in this area through to global markets.
"This core funding from Invest NI has been fundamental in enabling us to leverage further support and investment"
- Dr Godfrey Gaston, CSIT
"This core funding from Invest NI has been fundamental in enabling us to leverage further support and investment from EPSRC, InnovateUK and Queen's University as well as leading international businesses such as Allstate and Equiniti to help address this significant global challenge and economic opportunity.
"Through our CSIT Labs programme we are helping the next generation of cyber security start-ups and SMEs such as B-Secur and Uleska scale-up and compete internationally."
Invest NI's support is part funded by ERDF under the EU Investment for Growth and Jobs Programme 2014-2020.

Chaser by Kylie Scott - Release with Review
Given his well-earned bad boy reputation, Eric is having a tough time scoring.. When single Jean moves to town, she seems heaven sent by the sex gods. Only problem is, she not only wants nothing to do with him, but it turns out that she's pregnant. Starting over in a small town, Jean is determined to turn her wild lifestyle around and be the kind of mother she always wished she'd had. Since local bar owner and all round hottie, Eric Collins, is now determined to steer clear of her pregnant self, it should be easy. When she goes into labour during a snow storm and her car slides on some ice, it's Eric who comes to the rescue. There seems to be a bond between them now, but is it enough? And can Eric give up his manwhore ways to be the man Jean needs?
AMAZON | AMAZON CA | AMAZON UK | iBooks | Books A Million | Indiebound
REVIEW: Eric thought he was happy with his life until his friends started pointing out how childish he was. He wanted to prove them wrong. He was looking to start a relationship the only problem with that was everyone knew he was good for a good time but that's it.
When he sees Jean he can't help but start hitting on her, he actually starts to like her attitude and sass. THEN he sees that she's pregnant.
Eric had a lot of growing up to do, his friends were right and he realized it. When he decided to be friends with Jean and be there for her he actually took it serious. I loved watching the transformation of Eric. Loved hearing it from his POV.
Then little Ada made an appearance and oh my goodness I fell in love even harder with Eric!
I was laughing throughout the book, smiling and shaking my head. I felt like I was right there with them watching this relationship blossom and grow.
I'd been tricked. Betrayed. After Andre and Jean ate their lunch, we headed outside to deal with her stuff. The cold wind suited my mood to perfection. Talk about disappointed. "Don't lift that, it looks heavy," I snapped. Jean blinked. "It's a pillow." "The world's largest pillow ever. You can't be too careful." My gaze roamed over her swollen middle. "You're . . ." "Pregnant?" she asked with a voice dripping poison and sugar. "Are you having trouble with the concept?" "Absolutely not. I was just going to say huge, that's all." She blew out an exasperated breath. "Thanks, Eric. That makes me feel so much better." "I just . . ." "Don't bother." The woman turned back to her sensible, medium-sized SUV and got busy riffling through the contents. I was surprised she'd been able to squeeze into the driver's seat. Boxes and stuff took up almost every inch inside the vehicle. Each and every box seemed to have been neatly labeled with the contents. The woman took her organization seriously. She looked over her shoulder. "You know, I can't help noticing that Eric-the-smooth-moving-flirt has been suddenly replaced by Eric-the-awkward-jerk." "Well, you said you were single." I folded my arms defensively across my chest. "I am." And then there was an awkward silence. "Yeah, but . . . I mean, in your condition . . ." I fumbled to a halt. She turned, face all scrunched up. Like I was the one with the problem. "Just hop out of the way so I can grab some boxes," I said, voice gruff. Still nothing from her. "It's a second-story walk-up and you have a lot of stuff to get up there. You should be taking it easy." Hands on hips, I tapped my black leather boot against the sidewalk, waiting her out. "Jean, I'm not trying to insult you. It's the truth." She swore quietly, going back to fussing with the contents in the vehicle. I don't think any woman has ever given me the silent treatment quite this quickly. Usually I'm good for at least a couple of hours after seeing them naked. Man, I still couldn't believe this was happening. God hated me or something. Pregnant women and me were enema. Anathema. Whatever. Now that I'd seen her out in the autumn light, however, she looked younger than I'd first guessed. Despite her tired eyes, her skin was smooth, soft looking. She was likely closer to her early twenties than mid. "How old are you?" I asked. "Why do you care?" I shrugged one shoulder. "Just curious." "How old are you?" "Nearly thirty." She sniffed. "I'm twenty-two." Young, like I'd thought. She was probably too immature for me, anyway. "Come on, Jean. Let me get some of the boxes." Boyd ambled out of the Dive Bar, turning his head this way and that, looking up and down the street. I raised my hand and he started over in our direction. The big cook would make short work out of moving all this stuff. Behind us, Andre and Nell came out of the tenants' entrance to the Bird Building. The place was a big brick building about a hundred years old. Just past the door was an entryway with stairs leading up to the second floor, followed by two empty shops, their windows covered in flyers about local events. Concerts and parades and shit. They'd been vacant for a while, unfortunately. Andre's Guitar Den came next, then Pat's tattoo parlor Inkaho, and the Dive Bar on the corner. "Everything's good to go. Alex and I gave it a cleaning last week just to be sure," said Nell, smacking a kiss on Jean's cheek. "You'll meet Alex later. She's probably busy working or something now. She's sort of a shut-in." "You two didn't have to do that," said Jean. "Thank you." "Anytime." Andre leaned against the SUV. "Your furniture got delivered yesterday too, so it's all good to go." "Excellent," said Jean. "I can't wait to sleep in a decent bed again. Road trips when you're seven months' pregnant kind of suck." "I bet." "Who's minding the kitchen?" I asked. "Lydia will text Boyd if they need something," said Nell. "We're only going to be a few feet away from the place." I frowned. "I own the kitchen, Eric. Not you," she said. "You're in charge of the bar, that's all." One of Jean's eyebrows inched up slightly. So I might have implied that I was the sole owner. Shit happened. I crossed my arms. "Fine. No need to bite my head off." "My best online friend just moved to town. We've been texting and skyping for months. She's been an absolute rock for me through all the nerves of being pregnant again," said Nell. "Stop messing with my happy." And then there was an awkward silence. Great. If only there was some way to get out of helping without looking like a raging asshole. The possibility of anything happening between me and Jean had been buried six feet deep, never to be spoken of again. Kylie is a New York Times and USA Today best-selling author.

Redlands, Dyer keep streak alive
PUBLISHED: February 4, 2008 at 12:00 a.m. | UPDATED: August 29, 2017 at 1:37 a.m.
YUCAIPA – Sharon Dyer powered in five goals to lead the Redlands girls water polo team to its 10th consecutive Citrus Belt League title in a 9-5 win at Yucaipa on Monday.
Redlands (18-7 overall, CBL) responded with a four-goal flurry after Yucaipa (15-6, ) took an early 1-0 lead on Becca Hearon's goal at 5:34 of the first quarter.
Redlands tied the match one minute later on a goal from Ariel Lovett, and took a 4-1 lead with three minutes left in the first quarter on goals from Danielle Adams, Doris Tran and Dyer.
"We called the timeout after they scored those quick goals and made some adjustments," said Yucaipa coach Brian White. "We made it a 5-4 game after that and I'm very satisfied."
Redlands defeated Yucaipa 12-3 two weeks ago in first-round CBL action.
"Anything can happen," said Redlands first-year coach Corinne Taube, whose team also won its 98th straight CBL game. "Our goal today was to use a strong press defense, along with short, crisp passes and we did that very effectively."
Katie Hardin kept the Thunderbirds in the match with a looping lob shot just out of the reach of Redlands sophomore goalie Carly Miller, making it 4-2 at the half. Miller finished with nine saves, including three from two-meter range. "Miller was very on top of her game today," Taube said.
Yucaipa stayed within 6-3 after Kristin Koehler took a pass from Hearon and rifled in a score with two minutes left in the third quarter. But Dyer quickly countered with two goals, making it 8-3 as the buzzer ended the quarter.
Dyer scored four of her five goals in the deciding third quarter, giving her 50 goals this season. "We showed some good ball side defense and a lot of offensive motion," said the senior Dyer, who was an all-CBL right-side driver last season.
Dyer said that her team is very aware of its current win streaks. "We are motivated in that we don't want to be the first to end the streaks in league."
Aside from Dyer, teammate Adams was the only player in the match who scored more than once, when she made it 9-3 midway through the fourth quarter.
Quira Perez and Jessica Lopez scored in the last four minutes to get Yucaipa to 9-5. Yucaipa finishes CBL play this week against Fontana and Eisenhower.
"The only goals we gave up today were goals because we were out of position. We are going to the playoffs and I'm happy," White 8-0 6-2 said .
Redlands completes league play this week, beginning today against Redlands East Valley and goes for 100 straight CBL wins against Carter on Thursday.

Nepali Girls Snap Exclusion During Menstruation
In Nepal, the stigma surrounding the "time of the month" often means girls are kept apart from their families. In this photo essay, seven girls from a rural district document their lives during their periods.
Written by Sonia Narang Published on  June 1, 2016 Read time Approx. 8 minutes
These teenage girls in rural Nepal used cameras for the first time and photographed the restrictions they face during their period. Pictured, from left to right: Sushma Diyali, Bisheshta Bhandari, Bandana Khadka, Sabina Gautam, Rabina Budhathoki, Manisha Karki and Rita Baral. WaterAid/Mani Karmacharya
In parts of Nepal, menstruating women and girls are considered "impure" due to long-held cultural beliefs and taboos. In many families, girls are forbidden to sleep in their own room or home, enter the kitchen, eat with family, eat certain foods or even look in the mirror during that time of the month.
On top of this, girls often miss school during their period because they don't have access to proper toilets. They also risk infections because of a lack of clean and safe places to bathe or wash sanitary pads away from everyone else.
The international nonprofit organization WaterAid gave cameras to seven teenage girls in Nepal's rural Sindhuli district so they could photograph and share their experiences of exclusion during their periods. They exhibited the photos in the village to open up a discussion and dispel the myths about menstruation.
WaterAid works across Nepal to help women and girls access toilets, clean water and sanitary supplies.
Here are the girls' photos and their very touching stories.
"This is my mother and sister. Here, my mother is feeding my sister with so much love. My mother loves me very much as well. However, during my menstruation cycle, I am kept separately and have to eat at a distance. When nobody touches me, I feel unloved. We need lots of love and support during our period, but when I am separated and treated like an untouchable, I feel no love from my mother and father, and I feel only hatred. I feel sad being treated that way." (WaterAid/Bandana Khadka)
"This is place where I used to wash myself during my first period. My sister Shristi is washing her face in this picture. When I had my first menstruation, I stayed at another house, since we're not allowed to stay in our own house during that time. Though I don't have as many restrictions as my friends, I was still required to stay out of my own home. I think this is due to social pressure. We teenage girls are more comfortable with our own parents, and during menstruation we need extra care and support from them. But, when we have to stay out of our own home in another house for seven days, we may not feel comfortable. Adolescent girls should have the right to stay with their parents to feel safe and secure." (WaterAid/Bisheshta Bhandari)
"This is my kitchen. When I clicked this picture, my mother had just finished cooking 'sel-roti' (traditional doughnut-like bread prepared from rice flour). I really love 'sel-roti.' But during our menstruation, we are not allowed inside the kitchen. We are not allowed to touch anything inside the kitchen, including cooking materials, food and utensils. I am not allowed to eat 'sel-roti' as well. On other days, when I am not on my period, I work and eat in the same kitchen. Eating separately during menstruation makes me sad. I feel cast away, as if I'm a stranger and not the part of the family." (WaterAid/Manisha Karki)
"This is the set of utensils I use during my period. I'm not allowed to sit in my usual place on those days. When I'm not given the seat where I usually sit, it feels really bad. Everyone sits around and eats together, whereas I am separated. For four days, I'm not allowed to touch any other utensils other than the ones that are separated for me. I just eat and drink in them and make sure I do not use extra mugs and plates. After I'm done eating, I have to wash this and keep it separately from other utensils. I feel really bad during those four days." (WaterAid/Rabina Budhathoki)
"The photo is of my brother's marriage in the village. During my period, I can't attend such social gatherings. Even if we go, we have to stay separate. Though I like to attend marriage ceremonies, I don't like to go during my period due to this social superstition." (WaterAid/Sabina Gautam)
"This is a picture of the mirror and comb I use at my house. In our society, when girls experience their first menstruation, we are not allowed to look into mirrors or comb our hair. I think that is a wrong belief that we have in our society. My family does not follow this practice. But many of my friends' families are really strict, so they aren't allowed to look at themselves in the mirror and comb their hair. If my friends could grow up in an environment where there are no limitations during menstruation and receive more support from their families, they could feel free and have more opportunities." (WaterAid/Sushma Diyali)
"This is the small irrigation canal in my village. During my first menstruation, I used to come here to take a bath. I had to come to this place early in the morning, even before sunrise. People believe I should not be seen by or see any males during my first period. Since it was dark early in the morning, I used to get scared and felt insecure. I have a sister, but I will never let her go alone to this place." (WaterAid/Rita Baral)
Using their photo project, the girls challenged the norms surrounding menstrual taboos in their rural community. They hope their stories will begin to change people's minds.
"When I had my first period, my mother restricted [me] from crossing the river. She told me I'd get demons inside me," said 15-year-old Bandana Khadka. "I think we should change these kinds of beliefs."
WaterAid hopes this project will encourage communities throughout Nepal to ensure safe access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene.

"The girls of Sindhuli, Nepal, remind us through their photos and personal stories that women will only play a full role in society when the silence and stigma around periods have been laid to rest," said Sarina Prabasi, who leads WaterAid America.

Q: How do I change my element's background color? I can't seem to change the background color of a div I have in my HTML, here is what I have so far:

.footer {
  color: #FF0000;
  width: 100%;
}

A: You're probably after something like this:
.footer {
    color: #FF0000;
    width: 100%;
    background-color: blue;
}

You'll also need some content in the actual div's to see the background colour, or set height/padding

A: You should be using background (shorthand) or background-color to change the background color.
Something like this would:
.footer {
    background-color: #fff;
}

You'll also need to add either something to the div to give it height, or declare at height for the div in CSS like so:
.footer {
    background-color: #fff;
    width: 100%;
    height: 30px;
}

A: You may need background-color, instead of color. Color is normally for font color

A: You need to use the CSS property of
background-color

This adds color to the background of the selected element
The property (color) which you have used adds color to the foreground to the selected element i.e. it represents the color of the text

.footer {
  background-color: red;
  width: 100%;
  height: 30px;    /*Added just for demonstration purpose*/
}

A: The color property changes the text color.  You need to set the background-color property instead.  However, unless you give the div some height you won't be able to see it!

.footer {
  background-color: #FF0000;
  width: 100%;
  height: 50px;
}

A: Based on your CSS you are using the incorrect property to set the background color, use background-color instead of color. color is used for setting the color of you text.
Note Based on some comments to answers it seems that you have tested background-color on your sample markup, which has no content and therefore the DIVs will have no height and you will not see the background color. Please add content to the DIVs or give them a specified height so you can see background-color working.
.footer {
    background-color: red;
}

Another possibility (based on unseen code and assumed code) is that the child DIVs of .footer are all floated, causing the .footer DIV to collapse and hide the background color. To fix this you would need to apply a clearfix to the .footer DIV.

A: you have to use background-color. color is for text
.footer {
       background-color: the color you want;
}

Here is the problem; your program fails at a customer's site with an exception, but you can't (or don't want to) reproduce the problem on your computer, because it's too time consuming. If only you could attach the debugger and collect a few information, you can rapidly proceed on fixing the problem. But running a debugger at a customer's site is practically impossible; if the user isn't a techie, it's out of question. Even if he is, you'd still need the source code loaded up in the IDE, then you have to explain to him where he needs to set breakpoints and what to report back to you. It's just too much work.
That's where YouDebug comes into play. YouDebug is a Java program that lets you script a debug session through Groovy. You can think of it as a programmable, non-interactive debugger --- you can create a breakpoint, evaluate expressions, have it dump threads, and a lot more, without requiring any source code. Your customer can just run the tool with the script you supplied, without any knowledge about Java.
YouDebug uses the same Java Debug Interface that IDEs use, so from the point of view of your program, YouDebug behaves as a debugger. Therefore you need not do anything special with your program.
In this way, the troubleshooting of your program gets a lot easier.
Let's say you have the following program, which computes a String and then do substring.
To do this, you write a YouDebug script. YouDebug scripts are Groovy scripts with some DSL-like syntax sugars specialized for debugging. The following script sets a breakpoint at line 7 of the SubStringTest class, and every time the breakpoint hits, it'll print out the value of the local variable 's'.
Break when the execution reaches a specific line, when an exception is thrown, when a field is referenced or updated.
List up all the threads, inspect their stack frames, access/modify local variables.
Obtain heap dump, print the exception stack trace, and so on.
See the user guide for more details about how to script these capabilities.

 * particular system to malfunction or to reduce its throughput you might want
 * to introduce some throttling.
 *
 * This throttle implementation is thread-safe and is therefore safe to be used
 * by multiple concurrent threads in a single route.
 *
 * The throttling mechanism is a DelayQueue with maxRequestsPerPeriod permits on
 * it. Each permit is set to be delayed by timePeriodMillis (except when the
 * throttler is initialized or the throttle rate increased, then there is no delay
 * for those permits). Callers trying to acquire a permit from the DelayQueue will
 * block if necessary. The end result is a rolling window of time. Where from the
 * callers point of view in the last timePeriodMillis no more than
 * maxRequestsPerPeriod have been allowed to be acquired.

A local Dairy Queen is handing out 1,000 free Blizzards to their customers.
Usually this time of year we do everything we can to avoid coming in contact with a blizzard. But when that blizzard comes in a cup and is made from ice cream, it's something to celebrate.
A Hudson Valley Dairy Queen owner will be handing out 1,000 free Blizzards this month in exchange for downloading a new information app he developed. The QtextA app allows users to ask questions that are answered by real people. Don Frost, the owner of Dairy Queen in Middletown, says in a press release that he came up with the idea for the app after posting questions online and being frustrated by receiving such little response. Frost says "artificial intelligence can't be relied on for the kind of everyday advice and recommendations that come with human experience."
Of course, an app that depends on user interaction is hard to launch when only a few people are using it, so Frost decided to leverage his position as DQ owner to encourage people to try out the new technology. Customers who download QtextA will get a free mini Blizzard of their choice. Frost hopes the promotion will encourage people to try out the new app and also bring some new customers to his store.
Currently, QtextA is only available for the iPhone, but desktop and Android versions are in the works. For more information on getting your free Blizzard, you can visit the Middletown DQ on James P Kelly Way off of Route 17M.

Pashinyan Hopes to Contain Rapid Spread of COVID-19 Without Lockdown
Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan hold press briefing on June 5
YEREVAN (Azatutyun.am)—Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said on Friday that despite the continuing rapid spread of coronavirus in Armenia his government still hopes to contain the epidemic without imposing a fresh nationwide lockdown.
Pashinyan insisted that while renewed lockdown restrictions are one of the options currently considered by the government they are not necessarily a panacea for ending the country's deepening coronavirus crisis.
"Suppose that coronavirus indicators in Armenia are miraculously reduced to zero with the help of administrative levers," he told a daily news briefing. "But … if there is no change in our individual behavior, as soon as we open up to the outside world potentially infected people will come to Armenia and we will have to do everything all over again."
"So I'm thinking along these lines: we must together solve this problem with mass changes of our individual behavior," he said. "In this regard, I believe in Armenia's citizens and believe that solutions to this and other problems lie in our consciousness and we should follow the path of changing our consciousness and behavior."
Accordingly, Pashinyan repeated his calls for the population to practice social distancing, wear masks in all public and enclosed spaces, frequently wash hands and stay away from large gatherings. Citizens should also alert help authorities fight against violations of these safety rules, he said.
Critics of the government are skeptical about the effectiveness of this strategy. They say that only a renewed lockdown can make a difference.
Pashinyan admitted earlier this week that the Armenian health authorities are also favoring such a drastic solution. He voiced misgivings, saying that it could cost the Armenian economy dearly. He also argued that the government had already issued stay-at-home orders, banned public transport and shut down most businesses in late March.
Critics counter that the authorities never properly enforced the lockdown and ended it too soon. They cite the example of many European countries and especially neighboring Georgia whose government only recently began easing serious curbs on people's freedom of movements and reopening the domestic economy.
The Georgian authorities have so far reported 805 coronavirus cases and only 13 deaths caused by them, compared with 11,817 cases and at least 183 fatalities registered in Armenia.
On Thursday alone, the Armenian Ministry of Health recorded about 600 single-day COVID-19 infections. By contrast, only 4 people in Georgia tested positive for the virus.
Health Minister Arsen Torosyan warned on Thursday that Armenia's healthcare system is now so overstretched that hospitals may soon be unable to admit all infected people in need of urgent treatment.

Google reaches for the stars: Satellites next venture for search giant, WSJ reports
Aaron Task
Daily Ticker June 2, 2014
Google is planning to bring the Internet to unwired regions of the globe via satellite, the latest effort by a major tech company to expand the Web to the farthest reaches of the Earth.
Google is planning to spend between $1 billion and $3 billion to launch 180 satellites, The WSJ reports. Even $3 billion is pocket change for the search giant: as of March 31, Google had over $57 billion in cash and equivalents on its balance sheet.
Earlier this year, Google acquired Titan Aerospace, which makes solar-powered drones and previously has experimented with weather balloons -- codename Project Loon -- as another means of delivering the Internet.

"Like Facebook, Google is not just fighting for market share...they're trying to expand their market," notes Yahoo Finance senior writer Rick Newman in the accompanying video. "They've basically saturated everyplace where they operate...so they're trying to get more customers by going to places where they don't have easy Internet access so people can connect via satellite."
The bottom line is more people getting online is good for Google. Despite all the press about Google's efforts in robotics, driverless car, wearable technology, mobile software, and clean energy (among others), the company remains first and foremost driven by its core search business. With its Android platform and deep pockets, Google can certainly afford to subsidize low-priced phones for the developing world in order to put the Internet in people's hands in places where there currently isn't a telecom infrastructure.

Google's dominance in search and innovation in other areas helped it rank no. 1 in Millward Brown's annual BrandZ ranking but it's dominance in search is also garnering more attention from regulators, here and abroad. The recent "right to be forgotten" ruling in Europe was aimed squarely at Google, which last week started taking requests from individuals who want information removed. Separately, Google was recently accused of "illegally monopolizing" the U.S. mobile search market in an anti-trust suit, adding to a string of legal headaches.

For now, investors seem largely unperturbed by these developments but dealing with regulatory scrutiny may ultimately prove harder for Google than bringing the Internet to the farthest reaches of the globe.

Cardi B Reveals Who Her BTS BIAS Is
July 2, 2022 Jaya baya News
No one can resist the charm of BTS and rapper Cardi B. The American has a connection with the kpop industry, since, in 2020, she joined the popular band BLACKPINK in the song "Bet You Wanna". Although she hasn't collaborated with Bangtan Sonyeondan yet, she has followed in her footsteps and even has her bias .
The interpreter of "WAP" has her ARMY side and has even, on several occasions, shown her interest in collaborating with the Grammy nominees, however, the busy schedules of both have not allowed them to unite their styles in a collaboration. Although they have not managed to finalize anything, she feels an appreciation for all the boys.
Who is Cardi B's bias in BTS?
Last Friday, July 1, Cardi B launched a fun question and answer session through the hashtag #ASKCardi on Twitter. The rapper received hundreds of questions until one question stole ARMY's attention, as a fan questioned her: "Who is your bias (favorite member) in BTS ?", to which she responded with a photo.
It was a portrait of Jimin on the red carpet at the Grammy Awards. The American did not elaborate on why ChimChim is her bias , but, let's be honest, it is very difficult to resist the idol's smile and her great talent for dancing. Let's also not forget his charming songs: "Friends", "With You" and among others, which reach the hearts of those who listen to them.
It is not the first time that Cardi B shows her love for BTS , in 2021, the rapper conducted an interview with Variety where she mentioned that both she and her daughter Kulture are fans of the South Korean band and even said: "I really like BTS , but Let me tell you something. My daughter loves it. She tells me, 'Mommy, mommy, put [on] the song.' And it's like, I already know what she's talking about."
In May of last year, the rapper shared a video of Kultura trying to imitate the choreography that Jungkook, V, RM, J-Hope, Suga, Jimin, and Jin did in the 'Butter' video. Without a doubt, a tender scene that many people in the fandom identified with at the time, well, we all want to imitate her steps.

Anyone who follows football will know of Aaron Ramsay, one the top players for Arsenal Football Club and Wales National team. He's had a lot of success over the past decade nearly and has become quite the household name. Now, Aaron is more than just a professional football player, but he is also a keen watch enthusiast which undoubtedly led him to the team at Watches of Wales, based in the Morgan Arcade in Cardiff.
That's actually not such a surprise, Aaron himself is from the Welsh valleys calling Caerphilly his home town. Aaron has always been mad about football, as indeed a lot of young people are these days. As a schoolboy he played football for Cardiff City Football Club, nicknamed the Bluebirds, on their junior team. Interestingly he also became the club's youngest player for the senior team and made over twenty appearances for them including at the 2008 final of the FA Cup, after which he moved to Arsenal in the same year.
Unfortunately not too long into his career there he was forced to take a year off after suffering an injury in the form of a broken leg whilst playing against Stoke City, but he was back on form for the 2011-2012 football season. Whether you are a devout football fan, a Gunner incarnate or just someone who likes to sit and watch the sports on a sunny afternoon you will be familiar with Arsenal's performances in 2013-2014 season where Ramsay scored 16 goals over the season including, rather impressively, the winning goal in their final against Hull City, as well as performing well over the following season and even scoring yet another FA Cup winning goal in the 2017 season.
Aaron also plays for the Welsh national team too, joining them in 2008. He was a key part of their playing in the UEFA European Championship of 2016 and was subsequently a part of the Team of the Tournament title. Aaron has even represented Team GB in the Olympics, playing football for them in 2012, although the team came nowhere near the medal podium.
As mentioned, Aaron is a keen watch enthusiast and has used the services of Watches of Wales on many occasions in the past. He says Watches of Wales are "Top guys and a great company, the best in Wales for quality jewellery", high praise indeed. But it seemed this praise wasn't enough for Aaron, as he was also kind enough to send one of his own shirts to the team, which he has personally signed himself. This shirt will be hung up on the wall in the store for all visiting guests and clientele to see and appreciate, and also as a marker of Watches of Wales' commitment to the best watches and the best customer service. We certainly hope Mr Ramsay will return for another visit in the future.
Watches of Wales wishes to thank Aaron for his generosity and for his loyalty as a customer, and is one of the many VIP Clients that the company interacts with.
Watches of Wales is a company made up of proud and dedicated sports fans, and is delighted to extend its sponsorship of the Cardiff Blues into another season.
