Your role is extremely important in the prevention of any wrongful use of your Accounts or Loans (defined below). You must promptly examine your statement upon receipt. If you find that your records and ours disagree, you must immediately call River City Bank at (916) 567-2899.
1. Use dual controls – Have one individual create your outgoing online banking transactions (wires / ACH) and another individual approve each transaction.
2. Perform a daily reconciliation – Review the transactions in your Accounts and Loans on at least a daily basis and alert us immediately if there is any suspicious activity.
3. Read your electronic notices – These notices are for your own protection and are meant to alert you of your real online banking activity. If you receive a notice and did not perform or authorize the activity, you must immediately call us to report suspicious activity.

Home Jakarta Jakarta to develop 'Kota Tua'
Jakarta to develop 'Kota Tua'
The Jakarta Administration has urged foreign and domestic investors to turn their attention to Kota Tua or Old Town quarter in West and North Jakarta, saying that it currently plans to transform the area into a commercial hub.
The Jakarta Construction Supervision and Enforcement Agency (P2B) head, I Putu Ngurah Indiana, has confirmed that his agency is currently looking to potential investors to develop Kota Tua into a commercial area that will offer tourists a historical and distinctive ambience.
"The development is subject to conditions, however, because we will not allow [the developers] to change the buildings' structures," he said on Monday, adding that the Jakarta Administration classified most buildings in the area into category A, meaning that they belonged to historical heritage and that any renovation should retain the original designs.
Putu said that the development of Kota Tua would render massive boon for the city's economy.
"We plan to increase economic activities in the area, so the buildings there will function more than just as 'museums'," said Putu. "Investors can establish cafés, restaurants or stores – basically anything as long as [they] are committed to retaining the historical values of the buildings."
Kota Tua, once known as Oud Batavia in reference to the capital's moniker in Dutch, was a center of commerce for the whole island of Java during the colonial era.
Today the area is popular among the capital's sightseers, as it hosts many historical buildings boasting Dutch-style façades and classic architectural designs (Jakarta Post)

The Defeat GBM Research Collaborative is an effort based around three broad ideas: five years, $10 million and a question.
The collaborative, a project of the National Brain Tumor Society (NBTS), is asking why the development of treatments for the brain cancer glioblastoma (GBM) has been marked by "heartbreaking disappointments and achingly slow progress." It's using its funding and timeline to find answers to that question — data that could, in turn, lead to new treatments.
"The map of the genes that make proteins, and their alterations, in this cancer has largely been identified," Paul Mischel, M.D., one of the collaborative's leading researchers, said in an online statement. "So, one would expect or anticipate that this would actually make a difference in the lives of patients. But for a variety of reasons…that information has yet to really benefit patients," said Mischel, a professor at the University of California San Diego and a lab leader at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research in New York.
The collaborative aims to push past that notion to double the percentage of patients with "the most common, complex, treatment-resistant and deadliest type of brain cancer" who survive five years or more beyond their initial diagnosis.
Along with its subsidiary – Cure GBM, LLC – the NBTS plans to reach that goal by stimulating teamwork among top brain cancer experts. Rather than making grants to individuals, the organizations fund collaborative, multi-institution programs designed to move drugs from the lab to the clinic. Much of that work is being done by three institutions serving as contracted research partners: MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston; Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York; and the Ludwig Institute.
Within these programs, researchers are working to better understand how GBM tumors protect themselves against existing treatments and where their vulnerabilities are. They are creating better models of these tumors for use in laboratory study and then testing experimental drugs against them.
Now, at the halfway mark in its five-year plan, the society has issued a Defeat GBM progress report.
*Generated more than 70 new lab models, known as stem cell lines and based on tissue from GBM patients, for use in preclinical drug screening.
*When GBM is treated with drugs that attack the protein EGFR, the cancer may fight back by slowing production of another protein, Bim, whose job is to kill the diseased cells. Drugs that mimic the activity of Bim may help restore the body's tumor-killing abilities.
*GBM cells thrive with help from the nutrients glucose and acetate. Slowing the body's production of these nutrients, and the tumor's ability to use them, could help fight the cancer.
*A new understanding of how GBM cells repair themselves after radiation makes this the right time to look for drugs that will make the cells more vulnerable to radiation therapy.
*Depriving GBM cells of cholesterol may be an effective treatment. A drug of interest has been identified for study.
*DNA is usually located on chromosomes, but in GBM tumors, many fragments are not; this could lead to new treatment strategies.
*There may be new ways to treat GBM tumors that are driven by the loss of the tumor suppressor gene PTEN.
*There are new opportunities for research now that there's a greater understanding of the process by which the EGFRvIII gene mutation causes GBM cell growth.
Furthermore, scientists have made discoveries about biomarkers that could signal whether GBMs will respond to certain treatments, or, once treatment is underway, how well the cancers are responding.
According to the report, scientists involved in the Defeat GBM program have identified biomarkers that may indicate which patients will benefit from targeted drugs known as PI3K inhibitors, and from combinations of the targeted FGFR and CDK4/6 inhibitors.
For patients whose GBM carries a mutation in the IDH gene, the scientists have figured out that using imaging to track a metabolite made by tumor cells may help determine, early on, whether IDH-inhibiting drugs are working against the cancer.
Finally, they have found, testing a patient's cerebrospinal fluid may be a less invasive alternative to conventional biopsy in determining how a tumor is responding to treatment.
David Arons, chief executive officer of the NBTS and president of Cure GBM, LLC, said that the work of the Defeat GBM Collaborative is a reason for those affected by the cancer to have hope.

It's worth watching how Dan Quinn works to guide his Falcons back from one of the all time playoff choke jobs, theirs on the Super Bowl stage when they blew a 28 3 lead over the Patriots.
It is an attitude that is fundamental to football culture, he said."There's always a big push from an organization and coaches because obviously that's their livelihood and they want their best players out there playing," said Warner, who retired earlier this year from the Arizona Cardinals."I don't think anybody came up to me and said, 'Well you have to play whether you're 100 percent or not, we need you.'

Following on from my previous post about my cycling torture (you can catch up below) my joy at seeing some improvement in both my riding ability and most importantly, my saddle comfort, was dashed in a 50-yard ride from my drive to the end of the road.
I'd decided it was time to put the gravel bike to bed for a well-earned rest and release the road bike from its winter coat of dust and cobwebs. Full of renewed optimism, I'd jumped aboard the road bike for a steady 25 miler but instead, cranked a slow 5o yards and turned for home. I was devastated, devastated and confused! How could everything, after so much improvement over the winter, have gone right back at square one?!
Grabbing a tape measure, I began comparing the distances and angles of every part of the two bikes. There were some differences but they were literally millimeters. Plus, the bikes were different types for different jobs so you would expect some slight differences, wouldn't you? Having exhausted the tape measure, I turned to the spirit level. Mmmm, the gravel bike on which, I had comfortably ridden all winter, had the saddle tipped, ever so slightly, nose up from the horizontal while the road bike, by about the same degree, was tipped nose down. Surely this couldn't be the defining difference, could it?
When the husband came home we spent ages tilting saddles this way and that trying to find the 'sweet spot' but although it improved, it wasn't great. There was still no way I could see me getting past the 30-mile pain barrier and definitely not to Paris.
I had invested in a bike fit when I first bought the bike so went back to the shop and told them of my discomfort and the realisation that the saddles on the two bikes, were placed at different angles. The guy in the shop was, as always, great and took my bike away to recheck the measurements and adjust it accordingly. I rode home feeling a bit happier as it definitely felt marginally better. Needless to say, I had been told to ride more and get used to the new riding position and so began another period of riding yet more painful miles.
By now, approximately 8 months after taking up cycling, I had spent a fortune! First, of course, there was a bike, then a bike fit, four different brands of cycle shorts, three saddles, two different brands of chamois cream and oh yes, another bike! SOMETHING HAD TO BE DONE!
During my endless hours of searching the internet for an answer, I had come across the Retúl Bike fit. It sounded great but expensive. Ever the cynic I thought "Of course, it sounds good, they're trying to sell it to me! But now I had reached a stage of such desperation, I would have accepted help from a witch doctor if they said they could transform my lady garden hell, into paradise.
My faffing in the garage with the tape measure and level had made me see how the tiniest degree of an adjustment on any and all parts of the bike, can make a massive difference to your comfort, balance, speed, and confidence, all of which I needed sorting and all of which, the Retul promised to do. And so it was booked.
Another enlightening article I had come across was about how different lady gardens can be and how this can affect comfort. There's a link at the bottom (no pun intended) that may help you understand your personal physic and help you find the right saddle. Be warned, it's a little graphic!
While we are talking of differences in lady gardens, it might be worth mentioning that I have, on occasion, wondered if the menopause might be a factor for those of us who are starting cycling later in life. I've never had any of the hot flushes or other menopausal side effects (touch wood that I never do!) but having chemotherapy and then ditching the ovaries, I was thrown into the menopause and despite no classic symptoms, I do wonder if my skin down there is more sensitive – just a thought.
So, the Retúl was booked and away I went, hopeful it was going to solve all my problems but also worried it was just another way of getting rid of more money.
Thankfully, I had no need to worry. Tim, at SpeedHub, where I had the fit, was brilliant. Friendly and helpful, it was easy to discuss my problems without embarrassment. My bike was put onto a roller while I was connected to a computer via a variety of wires and sensors. I was then asked to cycle as I would on the open road while the computer logged and filmed my every move. The whole thing took about three hours or more and as I sweated away the virtual miles, the husband somehow managed to get himself a sports massage with the resident sports therapist!
There were so many changes made to my bike it began to feel like a custom build. Once the bike was sorted, I sat on the digital seat and bum measured, the saddle suggested for my (apparently larger than I thought!) physic, was the Cobb plus2. With everything put back into place and the new saddle fitted, I took a short ride around the car park and left the shop a very happy bunny.
May 29th 2018 was my Retul bike fit day and it is now marked in the diary as an annual event for celebration. From that day to this, around 2,000 miles and a three day ride to Paris, I have not had a single sore, bruise or slight chaffing. I have been 100% pain free and when I arrived at the Eiffel Tower in Paris, my only regret was that I wasn't allowed to ride all the way home again! All hail Tim at Speedhub, my Over-ripe Tomato is now a precious Peach.
Now, I'm not saying that Retul is the fix to end to all your discomfort because you still have to consider all those other factors that the nice man in the bike shop suggested. So here's that list again with a few notes.
Get a bike fit – Get the best fit that you can afford. It will be money very well spent and will save you money in the long run when you're not forking out for yet another saddle.
A good bike fit will include a digital sit bone measurement giving you a guide to the best size and type of saddle for you.
Chamois – Whether you prefer thin or thick gel pads is a personal choice but whichever you opt for, quality is important. Take the time to look at different makes and pay particular attention to how the pads are fitted, they should be higher at the front than the back. Inspect the stitching which, should be neatly overlock stitched around the edge, avoid unfinished edges or seams that could rub. Keep in mind those days when you feel like you have a rock in your shoe only to shake it out and find it's the teeniest bit of grit. The tiniest of bad stitching or rooked seam can give you horrendously painful sores! If you look at a few different clothing brands you will soon spot the differences in quality.
Bibs vs shorts are a personal preference but again, quality is key, you definitely get what you pay for.
Though I now find that I can manage without chamois cream,I still use it, just in case. My personal preference (and I've tried a few) is for Hoo Ha Ride Glide developed especially for women's precious bits.
Core strength develops as you ride more but a pilates class can help.
Ride more. With all this in place, I could now happily ride for miles and miles pain free!
I wish I had done all this at the start of my cycling journey and saved my self from so much pain, both in my lady garden and my wallet! Eighteen months ago I didn't even like my bike, now I fiercely protect it as if it were my own child! Quite a change from a few months earlier when my plan had been to throw that bloody instrument of torture into a french ditch and never ride a bike again!
Whether you are struggling with a bit of friction rub or more painful split tomatoes, I hope this helps. I can honestly say that the money spent on the Retul bike fit was the best money I have ever spent on bikes and cycling and as much as I love a bargain, I never skimp on my shorts.
2. I am in no way affiliated to any of the companies or products mentioned here and I am not paid for any of these endorsements.
Warning, this contains some graphic pictures Innie or Outie?
As dad to three girls, one of whom loves to ride with me, but suffers from chafe just about every single time, these posts of yours have been most insightful. I think I will be more understanding and able to better evaluate her needs to fix her issues. hopefully making her bike experiences more positive in the future.
It's a delicate one to talk about but I hope you can help them resolve their problems and enjoy cycling.
The wife and I have a good, and open relationship with our daughters. They are comfortable talking to one or the other of us about anything, knowing we appreciate their honesty and openness. Though my wife isn't a cyclist, so with these issues any more understanding I have from a female point of view, the better I can help.

President Obama's National Security Strategy in 2015: Strong and Sustainable American Leadership
February 6, 2015 at 5:58 PM ET by Tanya Somanader
President's National Security Advisor Susan Rice outlined our new NSS in 2015 at the Brookings Institution -- one that lays out what we need to get done in the near-term to secure America for the long-term.
President Barack Obama confers with National Security Advisor Susan E. Rice at Konstantinovsky Palace during the G20 Summit in Saint Petersburg, Russia. September 6, 2013. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza)
The President's National Security Strategy (NSS) is the blueprint for America's leadership in the world -- how we address global challenges while advancing our nation's interest, values, and vision for the future.
The Administration released its first NSS in 2010, a time when we were in the process of bringing two wars to a responsible end, emerging from the Great Recession, and re-asserting our leadership on the world stage.
Now, America's resurgence is real -- we are stronger than we've been in many years. Today, the President's National Security Advisor Susan Rice outlined our new NSS in 2015 at the Brookings Institution -- one that lays out what we need to get done in the near-term to secure America for the long-term.
As Rice said, a strong and sustainable American leadership is key to building greater peace and prosperity throughout the world:
Strong and sustained American leadership remains essential, as ever. Think for a minute where the world would be today without decisive U.S. leadership. Ebola would be spreading throughout West Africa and likely to far corners of the world. Instead, America galvanized the world to roll back this horrible disease. Without us, Russia would be suffering no cost for its actions in Ukraine. Instead, the ruble is in a free fall, and Russia is paying dearly for flaunting the rules. Without us, there would be no military campaign or sixty countries countering ISIL's advance. There would be no prospect for a global deal on climate change; no pressure for Iran to be at the negotiating table; and, no potential for trade that meets a higher standard for our workers and businesses.
Here are the 4 key ways we will advance a strong and sustained American leadership:
1. We will advance the security of the United States, its citizens, and U.S. allies and partners by:
Maintaining a national defense that is the best trained, equipped, and led force in the world
Reinforcing our homeland security to protect Americans from terrorist attacks and natural hazards
Striving for a world without nuclear weapons and ensuring nuclear materials don't fall into the wrong hands
Developing a global capacity to prevent, detect, and rapidly respond to biological threats like Ebola through the Global Health Security Agenda
Read the other key ways the President's plan enhances our security here.
2. We will advance a strong, innovative, and growing U.S. economy in an open international economic system by:
Strengthening American energy security and increasing global access to reliable and affordable energy to bolster economic growth and development worldwide
Advancing a trade agenda -- including the Trans-Pacific Partnership and Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership -- that creates good American jobs and shared prosperity
Leading efforts to reduce extreme poverty, food insecurity, and preventable deaths with initiatives such as Feed the Future and the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief
Read the other key ways the President's plan promotes economic opportunity and prosperity here.
3. We will advance respect for universal values at home and around the world by:
Holding ourselves to the highest possible standard by living our values at home even as we do what is necessary to keep our people safe and our allies secure
Leading the way in confronting the corruption by promoting adherence to standards of accountable and transparent governance
Leading the international community to prevent and respond to human rights abuses and mass atrocities as well as gender-based violence and discrimination against LGBT persons
Read the other key ways the President's plan encourages respect for universal values here.
4. We will advance an international order that promotes peace, security, and opportunity through stronger cooperation by:
Strengthening and growing our global alliances and partnerships, forging diverse coalitions, and leading at the United Nations and other multilateral organizations
Pursuing a stable Middle East and North Africa by countering terrorism, preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, and reducing the underlying sources of conflict
Promoting a prosperous, secure, and democratic Western Hemisphere by expanding integration and leveraging a new opening to Cuba to expand our engagement
Read the other key ways the President's plan promotes stronger partnerships and cooperation here.
"Our unparalleled leadership is grounded in America's enduring strengths and guided by a clear sense of purpose," Rice said. "The challenges ahead will surely continue to be many and great. Progress won't be quick or linear. But, we are committed to seizing the future that lies beyond the crisis of the day and to pursuing a vision of the world as it can and should be."

India's refinery throughput stays firm with strong recovery in sight
Indian refiners' crude oil throughput rose in January, holding near 21-month highs reached in November, with fuel demand and refinery runs expected to grow further on the back of a strong economic recovery.
Crude oil throughput in January was however down 0.5% year-on-year to 5.13 million barrels per day (21.71 million tonnes), government data showed on Wednesday.
Throughput in January was 1% higher from December levels and holding near November's 5.25 million bpd.
"It shows continued recovery," said Refinitiv analyst Ehsan Ul Haq, adding that although high oil prices are a drag, the end of COVID-19 restrictions bode well for demand and crude throughputs.
Initial government estimates show that India's fuel demand is likely to grow 5.5% in the next fiscal year beginning April 1, reflecting a pick-up in industrial activity and mobility in Asia's third largest economy.
Gasoil and gasoline sales also rebounded in the first fortnight of February from the previous month in India as states lifted most of the COVID-induced restrictions.
Indian refiners operated at an average rate of 102.6% versus 101.2% in December, the government data showed.
Top refiner Indian Oil Corp (IOC) (IOC) last month operated its directly-owned plants at 98.2% capacity. Reliance, owner of the world's biggest refining complex, operated its plants at 91.1% capacity in January.
Processing was also impacted by unit shutdowns at some refineries, as per the monthly production report released by the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas.
Crude oil production fell about 2.3% to around 593,000 barrels per day (2.51 million tonnes) year-on-year, the data showed, while natural gas output jumped 12.2% to 2.86 billion cubic metres year-on-year.
"Despite emphasis by the Indian government to boost output, India remains dependent on imports, which is likely to increase in the long-run due to rising demand," Ul Haq added.

Expanded opportunities for recovery under the Employment Standards Act take effect
On November 20, 2014, the Stronger Workplaces for a Stronger Economy Act, 2014 (formerly Bill 18), received royal assent in Ontario, but some of the enacted changes to the Employment Standards Act were delayed coming into force. Tomorrow, February 20, 2015, important changes to employment law legislation will take effect.
Elimination of the $10,000 cap on recovery for unpaid wages
Previously, there was a $10,000 maximum cap on orders for unpaid wages to an employee under the Employment Standards Act. Pursuant to the changes in Bill 18, there is no longer a monetary limit on employment standards officers' orders for wages, and employees will no longer be forced to pursue larger claims through the courts.
Increase to time limits to bring complaints for unpaid wages or vacation pay
Additionally, the amendments in Bill 18 that are about to come into force will increase the time limits on when an employee can file a complaint to recover unpaid wages to two years from the previous six month limitation period. The time limit within which vacation pay can be recovered under the Act has also been increased to 12 months from six months. These changes are subject to a two-year transition period regarding claims that arose before these amendments came into effect.
Contact us about using the Employment Standards Act complaint mechanism
If you believe you may have a claim for unpaid wages or vacation pay, you should consult the employment law lawyers at Raven, Cameron, Ballantyne & Yazbeck LLP to determine the best means of recourse, recognizing that these legislative changes may allow for a practical and effective means of recovery by bringing a complaint under the amended Employment Standards Act regime.

Many people have had a nasty scratch on their vehicles paint and don't want to spend hundreds of dollars to get it repaired. Well today I am going to show you the easiest most inexpensive way to remove those unwanted scratches and make your vehicle look like new.
For this process you will need the following supplies. You will need two to three micro fiber clothes and a bucket or water for the cleaning and removal process. You will also need three to five thousand grit sandpaper or a buffing wheel. In order to sand or buff your vehicle you will need a rubbing compound or polishing product I prefer a polishing compound.
In the first step to buffing out your vehicle to remove any imperfections you are going to want to take one of your microfiber clothes and a bucket of water and remove any dirt or mud on the surface you want to buff. This step is very important otherwise you may create more of a problem if surface is not fully clean.
After you have completed cleaning the area you want to buff it is time to grab your buffer or sandpaper and your compound. In the picture below you can see I have applied a generous amount of polish to my sandpaper which is what you want to do as well. After you have applied your product to your sandpaper or buffer you want to gently apply pressure to your vehicle and rub back forth about 20 times in a given area. Make sure not to apply to much pressure as this can cause paint damage.
After you have buffed out your vehicle you want to wait for the product to dry. This ensures that all the scratches have been filled and it also helps in the removal process. In the video you can see what this step should look like after you have buffed and before the removal of the product process.
After you have let the product dry you want to take one of your clean micro fiber clothes and gently wipe off the dried product. In the pictures you can see I have made a streak going through the center. It's important to wipe off all the dried on product so you do not have splotches of product as you are driving down the road. This is what your vehicle should look like after all these processes have been completed.

DNS over HTTPS Will Give You Back Privacy that Big ISPs Fought to Take Away
By Ernesto Falcon
An absurd thing is happening in the halls of Congress. Major ISPs such as Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon are banging on the doors of legislators to stop the deployment of DNS over HTTPS (DoH), a technology that will give users one of the biggest upgrades to their Internet privacy and security since the proliferation of HTTPS. This is because DoH ensures that when you look up a website, your query to the DNS system is secure through encryption and can't be tracked, spoofed, or blocked.
But despite these benefits, ISPs have written dozens of congressional leaders about their concerns, and are handing out misleading materials invoking Google as the boogeyman. EFF, Consumer Reports, and National Consumers League wrote this letter in response.
The reason the ISPs are fighting so hard is that DoH might undo their multi-million dollar political effort to take away user privacy. DoH isn't a Google technology—it's a standard, like HTTPS. They know that. But what is frustrating is barely two years ago, these very same lobbyists, and these very same corporations, were meeting with congressional offices and asking them to undo federal privacy rules that protect some of the same data that encrypted DNS allows users to hide.
ISPs Want to Protect an Illegitimate Market of Privacy Invasive Practices to "Compete" with Google's Privacy Invasive Practices, Congress Should Abolish Both
Congress shouldn't take its cues from these players on user privacy. The last time they did, Congress voted to take away users' rights. As long as DNS traffic remains exposed, ISPs can exploit our data the same way that Facebook and Google do. That's the subtext of this ISP effort. Comcast and its rivals are articulating a race to the bottom. ISPs will compete with Internet giants on who can invade user privacy more, then sell that to advertisers.
The major ISPs have also pointed out that centralization of DNS may not be great for user privacy in the long run. That's true, but that would not be an issue if everyone adopted DoH across the board. Meaning, the solution isn't to just deny anyone a needed privacy upgrade. The solution is to create laws that abolish the corporate surveillance model that exists today for both Google and Comcast.
But that's not what the ISPs want Congress to do, because they're ultimately on the same side as Google and other big Internet companies—they don't want us to have effective privacy laws to handle these issues. Congress should ignore the bad advice it's getting from both the major ISPs and Big Tech on consumer privacy, and instead listen to the consumer and privacy groups.
EFF and consumer groups have been pleading with Congress to pass a real privacy law, which would give individuals a right to sue corporations that violate their privacy, mandate opt-in consent for use of personal information, and allowing the states to take privacy law further, should the need arise. But many in Congress are still just listening to big companies, even holding Congressional hearings that only invite industry and no privacy groups to "learn" what to do next. In fact the only reason we don't have a strong federal privacy law because corporations like Comcast and Google want Congress to simply delete state laws like California's CCPA and Illinois's Biometric Protection Act while offering virtually nothing to users.
DNS over HTTPS Technology Advances More than Just Privacy, It Advances Human Rights and Internet Freedom
Missing from the debate is the impact DoH has on Internet freedom and human rights in authoritarian regimes where the government runs the broadband access network. State-run ISPs in Venezuela, China, and Iran have relied on insecure DNS traffic to censor content and target activists. Many of the tools governments like China and Iran rely on in order to censor content relies on exposed DNS traffic that DoH would eliminate. In other words, widespread adoption of encrypted DNS will shrink the censorship toolbox of authoritarian regimes across the world. In other words the old tools of censorship will be bypassed if DoH is systematically adopted globally. So while the debate about DoH is centered on data privacy and advertising models domestically, U.S. policymakers should recognize the big picture being that DoH can further American efforts to promote Internet freedom around the world. They should in fact be encouraging Google and the ISPs to offer encrypted DNS services and for them to quickly adopt it, rather than listen to ISP's pleas to stop it outright.
For ISPs to retain the power to censor the Internet, DNS needs to remain leaky and exploitable. That's where opposition to DoH is coming from. And the oposition to DoH today isn't much different from early opposition to the adoption of HTTP.
EFF believes this is the wrong vision for the Internet. We've believed, since our founding, that user empowerment should be the center focus. Let's try to advance the human right of privacy on all fronts. Establishing encrypted DNS can greatly advance this mission - fighting against DoH is just working on behalf of the censors.

After an extended trip out to NYC, I picked up a few ideas (to say the least) – so here's one of the first, a very warm trance-inducing piece.
I was considering doing an entire collection of pieces like this – as it was quite fun to make.
Also, I have no idea what that bowed stringed instrument is called – so, if you do – please let me know.

Disrupt: to break apart; to throw into disorder; to interrupt the normal course of unity.
"Disruption" is a term getting tossed around a lot these days in the retail industry. As technology continues to advance in all aspects of daily life and consumers get savvier using it, they are expecting the same level of sophistication in their shopping experiences.
From no-touch commerce to touchpoints everywhere, emerging technologies are changing the game for convenience and fuel retailers, with even more transformation to come.
"The old rules are out the window, and new ones are still being written. Businesses and their leaders will rise or fall based on their ability to anticipate and creatively respond to rapid change," innovation expert Robert Tucker told a roomful of professionals in the convenience and fuel retailing industry at a recent conference.
The brick-and-mortar store of old no longer cuts it. Brick-and-mortar stores still have a place in the retail landscape, but only if they embrace innovation. Consumers today want retailers to know who they are and provide them with personalized deals. They want retailers to give them the option to shop whenever and however they want: in-store, online, mobile, voice order, connected car, delivery, click-and-collect, frictionless, etc.
In this special report, Convenience Store News presents the six technologies we believe will disrupt the c-store industry. We have combed through our daily news stories, analyzed the latest research reports and talked with leading thought leaders to arrive at this final six. These are not the only technologies that will have an impact, but they are the ones we believe are most critical.

Gebrüder Weiss incorporates Rhenus Bulgaria into network
Gebrüder Weiss has announced it has finished incorporating the operations of Rhenus Bulgaria into its network. As a result, four new locations have been added to the Gebrüder Weiss national subsidiary in Bulgaria – in Burgas, Svilengrad, Varna and Plovdiv.
Staff members from Rhenus' Sofia site are relocating to the Gebrüder Weiss national headquarters just outside the capital in Musachevo, which is being further expanded. This move marks Rhenus Bulgaria's withdrawal from the domestic transport market and the transfer of these operations to Gebrüder Weiss.
Country manager at Gebrüder Weiss Bulgaria Marieta Grigorova commented "Our more finely meshed network and new personnel will help us meet our Bulgarian customers' logistics requirements even more effectively. At the same time, we are expanding our service portfolio in the area of end-consumer deliveries."
Following the integration of Rhenus Bulgaria, Gebrüder Weiss is now providing Home Delivery options in Bulgaria. This includes the transport of furniture, household appliances and home entertainment products purchased online – to and beyond the customers' front doors. The two-man teams will also assemble furniture and connect electronic equipment.
According to Gebrüder Weiss, the company ranks among the market leaders in home deliveries in several central and south eastern European countries.

I apologize for my lack of posting here. Well, not really. I guess I haven't had much to say lately. However, on this day, the record breaking highest temperature ever in November for Kentucky, I was disheartened to learn of DJ BigCountry's passing on November 1st, 2016.
About two years after I began my radio show on Eve Radio, along came BigCountry, who we always called BC. He spent a lot of time in IRC during my radio shows and before long, he signed up to become a Eve Radio DJ himself. BC started off playing music during his shows. He would often take requests but then laugh at the requester on air for picking such bad tunes (kudos, I often did the same!).
Eventually he found his niche and moved to a talk radio format. It was amazing how well he and his guests could fill the three (or six!) hour time slot with interesting banter about the Eve universe. Some of his best shows coincided with Eve's patch notes. He would go through every line in the notes and discuss, at length, with his guests how he thought this would change the game. BC was often very opinionated and passionate about Eve and would argue at length with his guests over the smallest of details in those notes. The fact that his guests were long running members of the show despite those arguments attests to the jovial quality of his personality. Adversarial? Sure! Open-minded? Also true. And even though he could scream his nutty opinions, sounding furious, you knew deep down he wasn't taking any of it personally. BC never held a grudge against anyone. He just loved the game that much.
BC's show was always one that drew in a lot of listeners. He was good at bringing the discussion to those Eve pilots and asking their opinions too, sometimes inviting them onto his show. Eve Radio has truly lost one of its best.
I wish I knew more about the Eve lore to know what Eve capsuleers believe the afterlife is about. I think with the ability to clone oneself infinitely and transfer your consciousness the moment before death, capsuleers might consider a life "cheap" or "easy to replace". Maybe they don't believe in an afterlife at all, given that capsuleers are basically immortal. So, I can't make an Eve appropriate eulogy here. Perhaps it's better to say this. The universe is a little darker without you brother. Rest in peace.

Адора () — израильское поселение в южной части Иудейских гор (на территории Западного берега реки Иордан). Основано в 1984 году, административно относится к региональному совету Хар-Хеврон (округ  Иудея и Самария). Население на 2016 год — немногим более 400 человек.

География
Поселение Адора расположено на западном склоне горы Хеврон в Иудейских горах, на берегу речки Гуврин, впадающей ниже по течению в Лахиш. Вблизи от поселения расположены родник и руины Альфара, которые связывают с упоминаемым в Первой книге Маккавейской городом Пиратоном.

Административно поселение входит в региональный совет Хар-Хеврон (округ  Иудея и Самария). Рядом с поселением Адора и соседним поселением Телем проходит шоссе 35 (известное как Трансиудейское шоссе). Согласно соглашению Осло-II, Адора является одним из населённых пунктов на территории Западного берега Иордана, находящихся под полным израильским контролем (так называемая «Зона С»), вместе с Телемом вклиниваясь между двумя регионами, относящимися к «Зоне В» (под палестинским административным контролем), и городом Дура, находящимся под полным палестинским контролем.

История
В 1982 году в Иудейских горах недалеко от Хеврона появился аванпост НАХАЛЬ, получивший название Мицпе-Амация. В 1984 году было принято решение о создании на этом месте постоянного поселения. Новому поселению было дано название Адора в память об Адораиме — одном из городов Иудейского царства, которые укрепил библейский царь Ровоам. Память об этом городе сохраняется также в названии близлежащего арабского города Дура юго-восточнее Адоры.

В 1984 году были начаты работы по прокладке коммуникаций и инфраструктуры. Первые постоянные дома в Адоре начали возводить в 1988 году, и два года спустя они были заселены. В 1992 году поселение было подключено к общеизраильской электрической сети.

Утром в субботу 27 апреля 2002 года в поселение проникли палестинские боевики, переодетые в форму АОИ. Террористы убили четырёх жителей поселения, в том числе пятилетнюю девочку, и ранили семерых. Один из боевиков был убит в ходе организованного израильскими солдатами преследования. Ещё один участник теракта был арестован в июне того же года.

Население

Население Адоры быстро растёт. Если по данным переписи населения 2008 года в поселении насчитывалось около 2,5 сотен жителей, то в 2016 году их число превышало 420. Практически всё население поселения (98,4 %) в 2008 году составляли евреи, из них приблизительно 15 % — репатрианты из других стран. Среди жителей Адоры — как религиозные, так и светские евреи.

Медианный возраст в 2008 году — 24 года, примерно 40 % населения составляют дети и подростки в возрасте до 17 лет, лишь 2 % жителей — люди в возрасте 65 лет и старше. Около 2/3 населения в возрасте 15 лет и старше состоят в браке; средний размер домохозяйства — 4,2 человека, только 2 % жителей проживают в одиночку, а в 17 % домохозяйств 6 и более человек.

Экономика
Около 3/4 населения Адоры в возрасте 15 лет и старше представляли собой в 2008 году часть рабочей силы Израиля, из них 94 % были трудоустроены. В Адоре работают фабрика по производству кондиционеров и фабрика, производящая тенты и зонты, а также столярная мастерская; часть населения (86 % в 2008 году) ездит на работу в ближайшие города, среди которых Беэр-Шева, Бейт-Шемеш, Иерусалим и Кирьят-Гат.

Население проживает в многокомнатных домах и квартирах (от трёх комнат на единицу жилья и выше); среднее число жильцов на комнату — 0,9. В 90 % домохозяйств в 2008 году имелся компьютер, в 96 % — как минимум один автомобиль (в трети домохозяйств — два и больше). На домохозяйство в среднем приходилось более трёх сотовых телефонов.

May 28: Yesterday was Nate's supposed birthday. I decided to skip work and stay for a few hours with him at his resting place. Because I had more hours free, I decided to go back to my alma mater, University of San Carlos, and inquire requirements for returning student. To give you a little background, before Nate came, I had been taking my graduate studies course. I was taking Master of Science in Information Technology. I had just finished taking my comprehensive exams and about to start my thesis. I then learned that I was pregnant.
