Q: Memory Section Definitions I am taking an assembly class and having a terrible time trying to figure out a question.  We have the following:

For the life of me, I have been trying to Google this to figure it out, but haven't been able to find much and unfortunately, there is nothing in our text to guide me.  I am hoping someone might be able to guide me on figuring this out.
1).  What is the size of the .text section once it is loaded into memory?
2).  What is the RVA of the .data section once it is loaded into memory?
3).  What is the physical size of the .data section on disk?

A: If you would have googled for COFF specification, it would lead you to Section Table (Section Headers).
The dump apparently contains three COFF section headers. If you prefer their description in assembly, here you are:
COFF_SECTION_HEADER   STRUC
.Name                 DB 8*BYTE ; Section name, NULL padded.
.VirtualSize          DD  ; Total aligned section size when loaded in memory.
.VirtualAddress       DD  ; RVA of section relative to ImageBase when loaded.
.SizeOfRawData        DD  ; Section size in the file (before loaded).
.PointerToRawData     DD  ; File pointer to section data.
.PointerToRelocations DD  ; File pointer to relocations. NULL if no relocations.
.PointerToLinenumbers DD  ; File pointer to line-number entries or NULL.
.NumberOfRelocations  DW  ; Number of relocation entries for this section.
.NumberOfLinenumbers  DW  ; Number of line-number entries for this section.
.Characteristics      DD  ; Section properties.
ENDSTRUC

Keep on mind that in LittleEndian the DWORDs start with the less significant byte (reversed), for instance .VirtualSize of  .text section, which is dumped as 00100000 is in fact 0x00001000, i.e. 1 KB when loaded in memory.
Size of .data or .text section in PE file is kept in the member .SizeOfRawData.

ClickBank Blog The Difference between Direct Response and eCommerce
The Difference between Direct Response and eCommerce
Jed Davis April 30, 2019 ClickBank, affiliate marketing, Direct Response
This conversation has come up a few times now, and it was funny because originally, we were going to write some amazing blog post about it and it was going to be all this research driven, research based idea on this main question.
What is the difference between eCommerce and direct response marketing? I remember hearing that conversation as we were walking by an existing discussion that was happening, and my heart kind of leapt and it sunk into my stomach, because inherently, that's really a flawed question, if you think about it. Have you ever thought about that?
What is the difference between eCommerce and direct response marketing?
Is there a difference? Are they apples to apples or is it more apples to oranges? The concept that I came up with on this is it's actually comparing a saddle to a horse. They're essentially really part of the same family. Ecommerce is an overarching category. It's how people sell and transact with products and money online. It's electronic commerce. That makes sense.
Direct response is actually a tactic within eCommerce. It's a way that you can leverage the buying habits, the psychology and the motivations of your buyers when they come to your page.
Let me break it down in this way. Ecommerce has become this really kind of a buzzword in the industry right now where it's if you want to make money online, you got to get in eCommerce. What does that actually look like? For most people, it's let me get three or four shirts with a cat on it and maybe a coffee mug with a cat and you've probably seen these and you put it up on your store, whatever platform you want to use and you see little boxes, the different products that are on there with the different prices and you just hope you get customers.
Now, Clickbank is not necessarily an eCommerce store like that. You're not going to set up a store with multiple SKUs so you can see and click and buy. Clickbank, the power of what we do is we force you to create a funnel, and if you're not familiar with what a funnel is, a funnel is really just a step by step process where you bring a customer through making a decision, then making another decision and making another decision and you're controlling that environment of their decision making. Does that make sense?
You have your let's say, we'll use the cat thing. You have a cat t-shirt that you want to sell. Now you're just going to promote the one cat t-shirt, get your cat t-shirt, and with direct response, you're going to put some kind of an offer around it. This is where at Clickbank, we empower you to create an offer, and those are the types of things online that convert today. They do super well and this is how people scale businesses is with offers.
What I really want to step back and say is just because you have a product and you put it on a store does not mean you have an offer but with direct response, it's a tactic of taking a product, wrapping an offer around it. You've probably seen those As Seen on TV, Get the Sham wow, and wait, if you buy now we're going to include two more free for just two payments of $9.95. That's an offer. Right? It's not just here's a great product, here's how much it costs. They're wrapping something in to make you think whoa, that's a good deal and I feel like I have won in this process.
When you're setting up a product to put on Clickbank, bringing it back to direct response versus eCommerce, you're using a direct response tactic to wrap up an offer around your product so you're not just selling a cat t-shirt. You might be selling a cat t-shirt, plus, as a bonus you get X. Maybe it's five tips on how to train your cat to walk on a leash would be kind of a fun product. I think we should do it.
That's your offer right? Cat t-shirt plus something free. Now they're like, oh, I got to jump on this. Usually an offer is financially incentivized, maybe there's a time limit on it, maybe there's a limited number, a limited supply, something around there that encourages psychologically your visitor, your viewer, your customer to want to make a buying decision.
In essence, direct response is directly empowering your viewer to make a decision on your page right then. It's not like a grocery store where there's just aisles of products and you go in and at will, you're just kind of buying what you want. You're sending somebody to a page to an offering, where you are leading their mindset, you're framing their mind and how they're viewing things to make a decision, the decision that you want.
Now just to add in a little bit of a bonus on to this whole eCommerce versus direct response. Direct response has gotten a bad rap in the past where it's just slamming offers down somebody's throat in a way of making claims, take two of these pills a day and you're going to lose 10 pounds every day. That was like the traditional direct response style marketing. Today, the industry has shifted in such a way where it is really encouraging, the overall market is encouraging people as product owners to create offers that are really value first, they're value forward.
It's not thinking, okay, I have this cat t-shirt, how am I going to sell these cat t-shirts? It's how am I going to provide value to my customer so that we build trust because I don't want to sell them one t-shirt. I want to sell them a whole litter of t-shirts, right? I want to sell them a whole bunch of products.
That's the mindset you really need to take. You can take the tactics of moving somebody into a decision or making them, framing their mind to make a buying decision. That's a part of direct response marketing but really do it again with value in mind and that's how you can build a long term sustainable business in this industry.
Again, just to recap, eCommerce is having products and putting them on a website and allowing people to make purchases from any of those products. That's just an overarching category. Direct response is taking a tactic, taking one of those products out, creating an offer around it that forces your buyer into a decision and running that as a funnel sequence or as, again, a direct response offer.
It's really a tactic within eCommerce. It's not really one versus the other. Direct response is more of the mindset of how do I get psychologically in the head of my client and the head of my customer, write language that they understand and they relate to and then encourage them down a buying decision.
I hope that helps you and again at Clickbank, that's what we do. We empower you as a merchant processor and as a technology company to create offers that are compliant, that convert well and that we can pay you out and your affiliates out on. Go check us out. Thank you again for watching this. If you have questions, please post them below. Please share this video. I think it could help a lot of your friends and the people who might be looking to get into business right now online. Thanks for watching and we'll see you again soon.

3 Pitt Researchers Named to National Academy of Medicine
Three medical researchers from the University of Pittsburgh were recently elected to the National Academy of Medicine.
The elected researchers are Amy Houtrow, associate professor of physical medicine and rehabilitation and pediatrics at Pitt's School of Medicine; Clifton Callaway, professor and Ronald D. Stewart Endowed Chair in Research in Pitt's Department of Emergency Medicine; and Robert Friedlander, the Walter E. Dandy Professor of Neurosurgery and Neurobiology at Pitt's School of Medicine.
The academy addresses critical issues in health, science, medicine and related policy and inspires positive actions across sectors. It also works alongside the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering to provide independent, objective analysis and advice to the nation, and conducts other activities to solve complex problems and inform public policy decisions.


To practice protecting a ball while dribbling.
Students should be able to dribble while moving without looking at the ball. Students should have been taught and practiced various ways to protect the ball.
Balls to dribble for half the class, poly spots for half the class.
Spread poly spots in open spaces with a student standing on each one. The other half of the class has a ball and attempts to dribble around the poly spots without bumping into each other or a person on the poly spot.
To become comfortable with the space, start by having students dribble for a set amount of time around the people on poly spots, then switch with a person on a poly spot. After the students are comfortable tell them that the poly spots are on fire which means that the students on them may use their hands to try to touch the dribblers ball. Not the dribbler. Students on the poly spots must keep both feet on the spot.
Continue the activity, but change the focus from getting around the people safely to actively protecting the ball from the people on the poly spots. Students can do this by changing hands or using their bodies to shield the ball. As students comfort and skill levels increase, ask the dribblers to travel at faster speeds or bring the poly spots closer together.
Allow highly skilled dribblers to work in a seperate area. Here the dribbler and the other person move freely and attempt to protect and steal in a more dynamic environment.
This idea can be use with the skill of foot dribbling.
Can students dribble without looking at the ball?
Are the students using a variety of ways to protect the ball?

In November we started our basketball unit. The lesson did a great job in incorporating spacial awareness along with defensive and offensive skills. The younger grades (k-2) did however have a hard time staying on the poly spots, I found success though using hula hoops and giving them a very specific area they had to stay in and they could reference by looking down! Great lesson!
I idea worked great it kept all of the students busy and they really enjoyed the lesson.


Data mining is an experimental science.
Data mining reveals correlation, not causation.
With good data, you will make good algorithm. The most preferable solution is then to work on good features.
Good features: Use a simple algorithm (linear regression for example).
In other words, if you want to make a causal statement about a predictor for an outcome, you actually have to be able to take the system and perturb that particular predictor keeping the other ones fixed.
That will allow you to make a causal statement about a predictor variable and its effect on the outcome. It's not good enough simply to observe some observations from the system. Data from this observation can't conclude to causality.
So in order to know what happens when a complex system is perturbed, it must be perturbed not only observed.
The following paragraph must be merged in one.
Google Cloud Dataprep, an intelligent, fully-managed cloud service (built in collaboration with Trifacta) that visually explores, cleans and prepares structured and unstructured data for analysis or training machine-learning models.
Evaluation is how to determine if the classifier is a good representation.
How to make the evaluation more efficient by reducing the search space.
Ask question. "tell me something cool about the data" is not enough!
an Analyst will first build both a business and data understanding in order to develop a testable hypothesis.
When Google rolled out flu stories in Google News, people started reading about flu in the news and searching on those stories and that skewed their results. During the period from 2011 to 2013, it overestimated the prevalence of flu (factor of two in 2012 and 2013). They needed to take this new factor into account.
Google Flu Trends teaches us that the modelling process cannot be static, but rather we must periodically revist the process and understand what underlying factors, if any, may have changed.

On airplane. "Has not thought that the time passes such quickly." The stewardesses complained. "Em." Xia Tian had not thought actually the world crosses quickly, although after all he person on airplane, but in fact his heart already had flown back to Jiang Hai City. "Now can tell me your mobile number?" The stewardesses asked. "Volume! Has the paper and pen?" Xia Tian asked. "Has." The stewardesses have put out the written records hurriedly. Xia Tian wrote own telephone number on the paper: "After dialing, said that looked for Xia Tian to be OK." "Volume, is this your telephone number?" Stewardess surprised asking. "Em, is the call switches over, you can also add my micro letter, is this telephone number, but I not on frequently." Xia Tian said.

This is not only rich can obtain, this is the proof of status, the symbol of strength. "Finally arrived at Jiang Hai City." Xia Tian excited saying. "Boy, follows up I, do not walk away, I must make you have a look at anything today to be called the strength." Before that man endured Xia Tian to be very long, on before him airplane, has related with here, some people will meet his. He must make Xia Tian have a look at anything to be called the rich man. Before Xia Tian sat the theater box, this made him not have the face very much, therefore this time he must all win the face. Xia Tian anything had not said that walks toward outside directly. "Hey, the boy, I spoke to you." That man noticed that Xia Tian must walk toward outside, shouts hurriedly.
But Xia Tian still has not gone to pay attention to him. "Good, I know that you worry to escape, I together go out with you, I must make you have a look at anything to be called the strength." That man pursued directly. In the first-class cabin other people are also to this person thorough was speechless.

These police probably stand guard to be the same there. In the airport are when many these many police. However when they left that moment of airport, all people all in same place. "What does?" A that male brow wrinkle, at this time the entrance everywhere is police, entire simultaneously police, moreover their front is a to run quickly long line, a very long very long Mercedes-Benz team, does not look with the eye to the end. The entrance of each to run quickly stands to wear the straight man of black western-style clothes.

At this moment, wore the man of western-style clothes to move toward Xia Tian, at the same time periphery other people and police also simultaneously followed in that man, team very neat. "They walk, do they want to do?" At this time the questions in all person hearts, but they have not asked that because of present this situation, not the suitable speech, they to hide obviously remains silent, now all people hoodwink. They do not understand that these people must do.
"Boss, welcome back." Is the man of head arrives at the Xia Tian front. "Boss!" Hears this glossary time, all people all hoodwinked. "Em, came back." Xia Tian nodded. Heard the Xia Tian words, Xia Tian behind that man has opened the mouth, these person of unexpectedly were calling the Xia Tian Boss. Bang! Meanwhile the fireworks starts to explode from all around of airport. Scenes of over a thousand fireworks simultaneous firing are really magnificent. All people by the present beautiful scene deep has shocked, but the fireworks has only continued for five minutes, although is only five minutes, but also enough people surprised.

Xia Tian nodded, afterward moved toward is that vehicle of head, under Xu was Xia Tian opened the vehicle door. Xia Tian such stepped onto is that Mercedes-Benz of head. But the beforehand that man stands in the wind disorderly, this time he understands that anything was called the person of act high and mighty to bump into really good B person, oneself probably were the clumsy mischief-doer is the same. One also with others boasted that one rich, oneself good, has the car(riage) to meet, but he was saw now anything was called really good, others were one looked that the Mercedes-Benz team not to the end met. In the grid, oneself anything does not calculate. Entire airport all people saw this scene, because that fireworks attracted their attention.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission is running with limited staff because of the partial government shutdown. But that's not stopping companies looking to go public on Wall Street.
New Fortress Energy (NFE), a liquified natural gas company, is tentatively on tap to make its debut on the Nasdaq later this week. New Fortress Energy was founded by Wes Edens, the co-owner of the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks and co-CEO of private equity firm Fortress Investment Group.
The company has filed to sell 22.2 million shares in a range of $17 and $19. The final price will be set just before the initial public offering.
New Fortress Energy's paperwork with the SEC is in and up to date, but it may not actually debut this week, because of the shutdown.
According to the financial information detailed in its most recent filing, New Fortress Energy looks like a risky investment. The company reported a loss of $43.4 million in the first nine months of 2018 — a bigger loss than the first three quarters of 2017.
Revenue was up just 12.3% from a year ago as well. The company is also saddled with $122 million in debt.
Still, New Fortress Energy does have the backing of Fortress Investment Group, which is the company's majority owner. And it has lined up big investment banks Morgan Stanley, Barclays, Citigroup and Credit Suisse to underwrite the deal.
So if New Fortress Energy does well once the stock starts trading, that could be a good sign for the many high-profile unicorns of Silicon Valley that may go public later this year.
Uber and Lyft have already submitted confidential filings with the SEC and WeWork, Airbnb, Slack and Palantir may do the same in 2019. None of these companies is expected to start trading until much later this year.
But if New Fortress Energy's IPO goes off without a hitch, there is another company in the IPO pipeline waiting to go public. Strangely enough, it's also led by a professional sports owner.
Pivotal Acquisition Corp., a so-called special purpose acquisition or blank check company, is run by Jonathan Ledecky, a co-owner of the New York Islanders hockey team. The company plans to use money from its IPO to invest in e-commerce and other tech businesses.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA (March 4, 2016) – It was night two of the FVP Outlaw Showdown for Jason and the World of Outlaw Craftsman Sprint Car Series stars at the big half mile in the desert called The Dirt Track at Las Vegas. With the mountains as a backdrop on this racing canvas, 36 cars were at the track with hopes making the 24 car A-Main and standing on top of the podium at the end of the night.
Joey Saldana kicked off time trials as he went out first for his two laps of qualifying. Unlike Thursday night, Jason and the JJR boys picked the highest number in the pill draw box, which meant Jason would be the very last car to go out to run his two laps of qualifying. As the cars made their way around the track, Jason moved up in the staging lane behind Donny Schatz patiently awaiting his turn to go out in the Dissolvalloy Downhole Revolution/FK Rod Ends #41. His engine fired and he got up to speed in his Kistler Engines powered Maxim. After his first lap he was 25th overall with a lap time of 15.113 seconds. He stayed up on the increasingly tricky cushion on lap two and improved his time to 23rd quick overall with a lap of 15.101 seconds.
When the WoO officials posted the heat race lineups, Jason would find the #41 listed on the board in the third heat race where he would start from the outside of row three beside Brady Bacon. Brian Brown and Ian Madsen would be in row one with Terry McCarl and Austen Wheatley right behind in row two. There were eight laps and only five transfer positions available, so Jason knew he had to get the job done. He flipped the shield of his Bell Racing Helmet down and focused on doing what he does best – go fast and turn left in a 410 sprint car. Brown jumped out into the lead on the start as Jason used the outside starting position to his advantage as he set sail cruising through the middle of the track in turns on and two aboard the Priority Aviation Services/KSE Racing Products Maxim. As he exited turn two the racing action was tight with Austen Wheatley and others racing for position. Jason brushed up against the backstretch wall and did a 360 spin and kept rolling to bring out the caution flag. Tagging the rear of the field with a damaged right rear wheel and cover, he muscled his way forward when the green flag got them started again and he was digging on the bottom side of the track and gaining momentum. He was looking for a transfer spot and wasn't going to be denied. He picked off one car at a time until he was again fighting for the final transfer position with Wheatley. Lap after lap they raced clean and hard with Jason on the inside and Wheatley on the outside. The Ragin' Cajun would secure the transfer spot and advance to the A-Main as Brian Brown took the win over Madsen, and McCarl with Bacon coming home in the fourth position.
With the lights around the track illuminating the surface and the desert sky, the "big track" where NASCAR was also racing during the day on this busy motorsports weekend in Sin City, was also all lit up in the background of turns one and two. The grandstands were packed with eager racing fans and the drivers were ready to get after it. After the traditional four-wide salute to the fans, the drivers hustled back to their starting position in their side-by-side order. Jason and Paul McMahan made up row ten with the Louisiana-born native to the inside in the MSD Performance/www.racediecast.com #41 Maxim to start the feature event. Joey Saldana jumped into the early lead from his third starting position as Jason wasted little time making some moves early and often to get his forty one moving towards the front. He is a determined person, so overcoming adversity has become a strength. He quickly moved into the top fifteen with his sights set on more. At the front, Brad Sweet tracked down Saldana and took the lead on lap nine. Jason continued to take advantage of every opportunity in his Pro Powder Coating (PPC)/Wilwood Maxim. He was finding the fast way around this fast and racy track and it was paying dividends. Sweet surrender the lead late in the race to Schatz who would go on to take the victory over Saldana, Sweet and Brian Brown with Shane Stewart completing the top five. Jason charged home with a solid tenth place finish, his sixth one so far this season, to earn his second KSE Hard Charger Award of the year. Two good finishes in Sin City for the JJR team as they now head to Arizona Speedway in Queen Creek, Arizona to get back at it on Sunday night!


My Life as Jane: Dude, there's a big dead bear outside your store.
This is easily my most favorite thing I've read all day. I'm glad that I was able to offer you the inspiration with which to write it.
EDIT: I had to edit the post to tell you that my word verification was geoBEAR. I'm not kidding.
Insan. Bears Taco, I meant. Sh%$, are you seriouuuusssss??? I can't over that,..
Next thing ya know, you'll be saying there are farms in Berkley.
Clearly a gang-related crime; "da Bears" gang was trying to muscle in on "da Cougar" gang for control of the neighborhood. Typical urban blight, nothing to see here, folks, keep moving.
Cops just shot a cougar in our town. I'm telling you if we don't get jobs for these animals they'll just take over our neighborhoods.
Haha I loved the bear roll call you imagined! So clever!
Great post! Love the pinky swear!
I can't believe I didn't hear about this before, living pretty close to San Leandro. I'm glad, though, since your posts are so much more entertaining that any media coverage.
BAHAHAHA, thanks for the laugh!!! Seriously though, this is very bizarre. How does one go about dumping a 300 pound bear anywhere?
My mother once made a pie crust with the lard of a black bear, it was not tasty.
Big damn laughs. Made me LOL about four or five times here. Thank you!
Where oh where is Jane???

'Mystery Spending' Drains More of Our Cash than We Know
By | MarketWatch
CHICAGO – Turns out money really does burn a hole in our pockets.
In fact, according to a recent study by Visa USA, nearly half of all Americans "lose" $2,340 in cash each year. And 48% of those who use cash said they don't know what happened to more than one-third of it — or about $45 of every $120 spent in a typical week.
The money's not actually misplaced, just inexplicably frittered away. Wayne Best, senior vice president at Visa, calls it "mystery spending."
"You do spend the money, but you're not really sure where you spent it," he said. More could be spent during a night out on the town, for example, than you thought. Or maybe there's been a lot of ice-cream buying for the kids that you've forgotten about. Picking up a loaf of bread and a gallon of milk at the store throughout the week adds up too, he said.
About 62% of the 2,036 U.S. adults surveyed by telephone said that they "misplace" about $25 a week on "small cash purchases."
Many won't be surprised to hear this too: Men 34 years and younger are the biggest money sieves, losing track of $59 a week, or $3,078 a year. Their female counterparts drop an average of $52 a week, equal to about $2,709 a year, on miscellaneous spending.
Visa, of course, would like most Americans to use debit cards rather than cash and Best said of those who do, nearly two-thirds said their debit cards helped keep their mystery spending to a minimum; four out of five said it helps them track their spending.
Most financial planners, however, will tell spenders that the best way to track their spending is to, well, track their spending. How?
Keep a journal on where every penny and every dollar goes for at least a week to see how money is spent. Set goals on how money should be spent. Make a budget to accomplish those goals. Stick to it.

Google Chrome 2018 Download Latest Version – Google Chrome 2018 is offered for Mac OS X as well as Linux, along with all Windows current variations from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Chrome installation is a snap, managed by initial downloading and install a really little stub program that downloads the complete browser. Google has been slowly improving its Chrome web browser over the past couple of years to make sure that today it's more of an entire ecological community than just a simple internet site. For some this has been an action away from the easy, lightning quick browser that first appeared back in 2008, however if you buy into the Google world then it has some rather compelling attributes. Google Chrome 2018 has a clean format, with a global search/address bar at the top, and any open tabs positioned simply above.
The 3 lines on the right-hand man top edge give you access to setups where you could organise your book marks, go into the 'incognito' exclusive searching mode, or increase the dimension of the material generally panel. The Chromecast expansion implies you can mirror your screen on a television if it has a Chromecast HDMI stick attached. Chrome additionally has a number of apps readily available in the store, many of which are actually connect to the service on its website, however there are a quite a few beneficial ones that can raise your performance, together with extra schedules, video games, as well as workplace tools.
Omnibox is the name for Chrome's mixed search and address bar, which runs completely across the top of Google Chrome 2018 windows. In Edge, tabs are, by default, next to the search/address bar, to ensure that the browser leaves much more room for the page you're checking out. Firefox is the last major browser to keep separate search as well as address boxes, which is a boon to privacy, since whatever you kind right into the Omnibox is sent out to Google servers. That occurs also prior to you strike Enter, if you have search prediction on, which is the default. hrome supplies exceptional tab application.
The distinctive angle-edged tabs project on top of the web browser window, and you can drag them out to the desktop computer to produce independent windows. You can pin a site up in the tab bar. The New Tab web page is less adjustable compared to Firefox's. It does not allow you pick website floor tiles. Instead, it places floor tiles for your most visited websites on New Tab pages, though it does let you remove a thumbnail from the most-visited floor tile view of new tabs. Google Chrome 2018 has an excellent voice search attribute, where saying the words 'Ok Google' on the homepage will instantly allow you to dictate your search terms. The recognition is excellent, with complicated sentences being recorded properly, and Chrome will certainly even review out loud the response to some concerns.
Book marking syncing has actually been available in Google Chrome 2018 for many years, duplicating an attribute presented by Opera and later carried out by Firefox. Chrome can currently sync tabs, passwords, choices, styles, the previously mentioned Internet applications, auto-fill entries, expansions, and Omnibox background. You could also add brand-new customers to one maker's setup of Chrome, letting several customers sync their customizations.ab Vehicle Close is a new browser expansion for Google Chrome 2018 that will close open tabs automatically on inactivity. The developer of the expansion developed it as an internet browser matching to sites logging users out immediately after a set time period or on inactivity.

Activists call for humane treatment of stray dogs, cats
By Lee I-chia / Staff reporter
Huang Tai-shan, chairman of the Taiwan People's Association for Cats and Dogs, second right, has his head shaved at a protest outside the Legislative Yuan in Taipei yesterday as animal protection groups urged the legislature to pass certain amendments to the Animal Protection Act.

Animal welfare activists yesterday gathered in front of the legislature in Taipei, calling for legislation demanding more humane treatment of stray animals to be included in an amendment to the Animal Protection Act (動物保護法).
Despite the rain, more than a dozen activists held up signs with pictures of mistreated cats and dogs, along with messages condemning cruelty to animals, the abandonment of pets by their owners and the policy of putting stray animals to death after being caught.
The demonstration was held while the act was being reviewed at the legislature's Economics Committee.
The demonstrators said the policy of putting animals to death 12 days after they were sent to animal shelters is cruel and has proved to be ineffective, since there are still many stray animals being caught each year.
They urged legislators to amend the law so that stray animals can be protected, and to introduce the Trap-Neuter-Release project as a method to replace the mass killings of animals at shelters and as a solution to the stray-animal problem.
Huang Tai-shan (黃泰山), chairman and founder of the Taiwan People's Association for Cats and Dogs, said the government should impose heavier punishments on owners who abandon their pets, or else the number of stray animals will only continue to increase.
Huang had his head shaved during the demonstration as a symbolic declaration of activists' determination to protect stray animals from being mistreated or killed.
"It's not the animals' fault that they end up as strays on the streets and killing them is not the only solution," so amending the act is essential to preventing many innocent animals from being killed each year, model and actress Sonia Sui (隋棠) said at the demonstration.
She also urged people to care about stray animals and adopt them as pets instead of purchasing animals from pet shops.
The committee passed the amendment yesterday, with the issue of the treatment of strays unresolved. The matter is to be discussed in talks between party caucuses.

US-EU start a Visa War
A surprising war has started between the US-EU, a visa war. Since US won't allow visa-free entry for citizens of some EU member states, this week the European Parliament voted to end visa-free travel for Americans.
United States citizens traveling to Europe will soon have to pay for a visa to enter the continental bloc, thanks to an escalating "visa war," as the Telegraph puts it, between the U.S. and the European Union.
The European Parliament, "by a show of hands, [on Wednesday] urged the Commission to adopt restrictive measures against U.S. citizens 'within two months,'" reports Reuters.

The U.S. has long forced citizens of some E.U. countries—namely Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland, and Romania—to purchase visas in order to enter the country, denying the E.U. complete reciprocity when it comes to visa-free travel.
EU gave US notice in 2014 that reciprocity in Visa's was needed for all EU States
And so the European Parliament voted to end visa-free travel for Americans, marking a "serious negative step in the US-EU visa war,"
The E.U. gave U.S. officials notice in 2014 that the country need to enact reciprocity or the visa-free travel for U.S. citizens would come to an end, but the U.S. did nothing. While E.U. officials told Reuters that talks are ongoing, under the hostile right-wing Trump administration visa reciprocity seems extremely unlikely to happen.
And so the European Parliament voted to end visa-free travel for Americans, marking a "serious negative step in the US-EU visa war," an unnamed European Parliament source told the Telegraph.
The European Commission has until the summer to enforce the measure. Relations between the U.S. and other countries have already been markedly chilled since the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who in only six weeks has lashed out at Mexico, alienated China, and dismissed the Australian prime minister. Trump was also vocally hostile toward the E.U. throughout his presidential campaign.

In addition, it seems foreign tourists were sharply put off by Trump's Muslim ban and draconian anti-immigration orders. Companies report that interest in U.S. travel has "fallen off a cliff" since the travel ban, with one trade association estimating that Trump's election has already cost the American tourism industry over $180 million in lost revenue.

US based automaker General Motors has posted a fourth-quarter net income of $950 million. This is GM's second quarterly profit in two years.
GM gained from increased auto sales and reduced labor costs. These also helped offset the losses at their mortgage unit.
