An analysis of previous studies indicates that among patients with peripheral artery disease, aspirin use is associated with a statistically nonsignificant decrease in the risk of a group of combined cardiovascular events (nonfatal heart attack, nonfatal stroke, and cardiovascular death), but is associated with a significant reduction in the risk of one of these events, nonfatal stroke, although the findings may be limited by the lack of a large study population, according to an article in the May 13 issue of JAMA.
Although aspirin is effective in the prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with symptomatic coronary heart disease and cerebrovascular disease, its effect in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) has been uncertain, according to background information in the article. Despite limited supporting data, some current guidelines recommend aspirin use for patients with PAD (partial or total blockage of an artery, usually one leading to a leg or arm, with symptoms including fatigue, cramping and pain from walking; and when the arm is in motion, discomfort, heaviness, tiredness and cramping).
To assess the effect of aspirin on cardiovascular event rates in patients with PAD, Jeffrey S. Berger, M.D., M.S., of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, and colleagues conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate available evidence from randomized controlled trials of aspirin therapy, with or without dipyridamole (an antiplatelet agent), that reported cardiovascular event rates (the primary events for this analysis were nonfatal myocardial infarction [MI; heart attack], nonfatal stroke, and cardiovascular death). The researchers identified 18 trials, which included 5,269 patients, of whom 2,823 were randomized to aspirin therapy (of these, 1,516 received aspirin monotherapy) and 2,446 were randomized to placebo or control.
The researchers found that a total of 251 (8.9 percent) cardiovascular events occurred among the patients receiving any aspirin therapy compared with 269 (11.0 percent) events among the control patients, a 12 percent reduction in cardiovascular event rates, which was not statistically significant. Results for associations of aspirin therapy with the individual components of the primary events indicated that the risk of nonfatal stroke was significantly lower (34 percent) in the aspirin group than in the placebo (a rate of events of 1.8 percent vs. 3.1 percent), but was not associated with significant reductions in all-cause or cardiovascular death, heart attack, or major bleeding.
A total of 125 cardiovascular events occurred among 1,516 patients (8.2 percent) receiving aspirin monotherapy compared with 144 events among 1,503 patients (9.6 percent) in the placebo or control groups. Aspirin monotherapy was associated with a 36 percent reduction in the risk of nonfatal stroke (2.1 percent vs. 3.4 percent), but no statistically significant reductions in all-cause or cardiovascular death, heart attack, or major bleeding.
"Results of this meta-analysis demonstrated that for patients with PAD, aspirin therapy alone or in combination with dipyridamole did not significantly decrease the primary end point of cardiovascular events, results that may reflect limited statistical power," the authors write. "The major limitations of this meta-analysis reflect the limitations of published literature on aspirin for treating PAD. Many of these trials were small and of short duration, resulting in few major cardiovascular events."
"However the current evidence was insufficient to rule out small yet important benefits of aspirin (as suggested by the point estimate of a 12 percent risk reduction)," they add. "Larger prospective studies of aspirin and other antiplatelet agents are warranted among patients with PAD in order to draw firm conclusions about clinical benefit and risks."

Q: Deep clone class instance JavaScript I'm trying to figure out a way to deep clone a JS class instance while preserving all the prototypes down the chain.
I've seen how to deep clone an object:
JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(instance))

And I have seen how to make a shallow copy of a class instance:
Object.assign( Object.create( Object.getPrototypeOf(instance) ), instance)

But my question is, is there a way to deep clone an instance of a class?

A: I recommend using Lodash's cloneDeep. It works with all types, function and Symbol are copied by reference.
Using the JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(myObject)) way is problematic when there's circular reference. Also, it replaces the object's methods to undefined and reorders the properties.

A: A possible hack is to invoke the structured clone algorithm to make the clone by sending the instance through a MessageChannel, like this:
function deepClone(instance) {
    return new Promise(resolve => {
        const messageChannel = new MessageChannel();
        messageChannel.port2.onmessage = e => resolve(e.data);
        messageChannel.port1.postMessage(instance);
    });
}

This will handle types like Map, Set, Date, RegExp, Blob, ArrayBuffer and more, and it can even clone custom classes.
Some other ways to trigger a structured clone can be found here.

A: There is no foolproof way to clone all possible types of objects in JS, particularly if it contains references to other objects.  A generic cloning argument doesn't know whether an object reference in the clone should contain the same reference (such as a common parent) or whether it needs to clone the object I have a reference too also.  It isn't possible to know that generically as it really depends upon the implementation of the object.
If there are circular references to objects such as parent to child and child to parent, it gets even more complicated.
As another example, imagine an object that as part of its constructor, it creates a unique object ID, registers that id with some service and then stores the ID in its instance data.  There's no way for a generic clone mechanism to know that logic (generating a new ID and registering it with some service) is required to make a new object.  That type of logic would have to be done by code specific to that object that knows what to do.
As another example, a constructor might create closures (with access to private information) that there is no way to duplicate from the outside.
As another example, a constructor might bind methods to its own instance that a generic clone would have no idea it needed to do.
The best way to clone an object is with code built into the implementation of the object that knows how to clone itself such as adding a .clone() method (or name it whatever you want) on the object itself and have the object support making a duplicate of itself. Then, it can do the right thing with any instance data which only the object implementation itself can know how to handle all possible types of instance data.

How many business incubators does it take to spur a thriving startup industry in a state? That's the question, and it's open to ample discussion.
Today, the Maryland Business Incubation Association (MBIA) reports that more than 30 incubators are operating across Maryland, making it somewhat of a hotbed for startups that are in various levels of progress.
To hear some of the players involved discuss the topic, there could never be enough incubators. Others feel that, while Maryland's scene is already thriving — despite the pending closure of one notable player in the game, Anne Arundel County's Chesapeake Innovation Center (CIC), in Odenton — there are enough now, but any new such entries should be keenly targeted to certain industries, as opposed to geographic bounds.
If new incubators that are targeted to a certain area or region appear, know that they are notorious for losing graduating tenants to other jurisdictions. In fact, one reason the money to keep the CIC functioning (as of press time) is absent in Anne Arundel County's proposed fiscal 2018 budget is that few of the companies that were tenants in the CIC stayed in the county after they left.
As for the CIC, there are several startups still in the center that are hoping for the best before the end of June, which is when the space has to be vacant.
Founded in the early 2000s in Annapolis, the CIC offices were relocated in summer 2014 to its current location, an 8,000-square-foot office (that came complete with a collaboration space and a moveable wall) in the Seven Oaks section of Odenton. The move was made from Annapolis due to the location, which is almost directly across Route 175 from Fort Meade.
While the CIC was much ballyhooed when it opened, the word from County Executive Steve Schuh's office was that the numbers generated by the investment in the CIC have not been up to scratch: According to Schuh spokesperson Owen McEvoy, only seven of the 62 companies that used it stayed in the county, and its return was only $130,000 — after a more than $11 million had been invested.
Still, McEvoy said the county is going to try to stay engaged with CIC businesses.
Obviously, companies in the CIC might — or might not — have been from Howard County. But notice the names of incubators can have a regional or statewide theme, like Chesapeake Innovation Center and Maryland Center for Entrepreneurship? That's often part of the rub.
Turner's take is that, "You can't do enough to assist other startups, no matter where they're located in Maryland, because we're all part of the same infrastructure and we need to work together.
But what if, after the large investment of money and time, they don't stay in Howard County?
The HCEDA has really embraced this concept," said Neil Davis, director of entrepreneurial development with the Maryland Technology Development Corp. (TEDCO), in Columbia, noting that the MCE is moving to the Columbia Gateway Business Park project in less than a year.
Noting that Department of Commerce Secretary Mike Gill likes the concept of incubators, Davis pointed out that most are funded by local and state governments, privately or by colleges. Even organizations like The Cordish Co., the commercial real estate and entertainment developer, are behind Spark, for instance, which is located at Cordish's Power Plant Live! in Downtown Baltimore.
But how many incubators are really needed? And how many can survive?
And upon further review, it gets easier to see what the attraction is. "People who work there are not only already working in a mixed-use project, they can walk to the Inner Harbor, Harbor East and the banking district; and it's 12 minutes off of I-95 and next to I-83," he said.
There's that quality of life issue again. As for the CIC, Davis recalls when it was the hottest thing going.
Buzz can be a great thing when building the roster for an incubator, but what is really required to achieve success, said Mike Binko, founder and CEO of Startup Maryland, is a solid ecosystem, with components that include talent, innovative service providers, mentors, champions and investors.
And Binko added another caveat.
Binko also stressed that incubators often thrive when their efforts align with those of academia, due to heightened access to active research/intellectual property pipelines and to top talent.
And Irani is with Binko about dissolving jurisdictional boundaries.
But will the old types of incubators stick around?
"I think there is increasing competition to bring in entrepreneurs to projects, whether they work from incubators, co-working spaces, accelerators or innovation districts, like City Garage and Spark. Each project has its own way of going about its business.
And she thinks having more choices is a good thing.
Binko concurs. "The good news is that Maryland has about 50 entities, encompassing incubators and various co-working spaces. That's almost unmatched for a state our size.

More than 22,000 public hospital workers across the state have unanimously voted to strike over fears about workplace safety. Industrial action will be launched across all NSW hospitals, including Wollongong and Shellharbour hospitals. NSW Health Services Union delegates on Tuesday voted to stop work for four hours on August 1, as they fight for increased security at the state's hospitals. "We want a safer workplace ... the government needs to take security seriously within the health setting," HSU NSW secretary Gerard Hayes told reporters in Sydney. Paramedics, allied health, catering, administration and security staff across the state will take part in the action. HSU state councillor for the ambulance division, Matt Anderson, told the Mercury the decision to take industrial action was not one made lightly. "There has been years of inaction by the government towards violence against hospital staff," he said. "They have been shot at, stabbed and punched and paramedics get it on a daily basis. "As a union we want people to go to work and be safe, and we want patients to be safe. "Workers want to look after their patients but we have been backed into a corner. "The years of inaction means we have to take drastic measures." Mr Anderson said the HSU wanted to sit down with the government to talk about ways to stop violence towards hospital staff. Mr Hayes has called on the state government to increase staffing levels and provide special training to hospital security guards to safeguard workers as well as patients and visitors. There were 529 reported assaults in NSW hospitals in 2017-18. Labor's health spokesman and Keira MP Ryan Park said hospital staff were not punching bags. "These are people who care for the sick day in, day out. They should have a right to feel safe while they're doing their jobs," Mr Park said. "I absolutely support this strike action.

Tokyo Olympics: Debutant jitters? Not these unflappable Singaporean upstarts
24 July 2021, 7:36 am ·5-min read

Reporting from Tokyo
TOKYO — She revealed that she was "freaking out" beneath her fencing mask, while he admitted he had "butterflies in his stomach" during his table tennis match.
For Singapore's Kiria Tikanah Abdul Rahman and Clarence Chew, the intense thrill they felt in making their Olympic debuts on Saturday (24 July) had to be tempered by being laser-focused on executing what they had been training for years, in order to advance in their competitions.
Thankfully, they found enough serenity amid their tumultuous emotions to eke out victories in their opening matches and take away indelible memories from their maiden Games.
As an added level of difficulty, both Kiria and Chew had to contend with higher-ranked opponents; yet they showed little fear and plenty of tenacity in upsetting their rivals.
Unflappable even when odds are stacked against her
Kiria had qualified for the women's epee individual competition as its lowest-ranked fencer at world No.209, meaning that she was among four athletes starting from the lowest round of 64 at the Makuhari Messe Hall early on Saturday.
Her first opponent, Hong Kong's Coco Lin, was already ranked 119 spots above her, and had beaten her in each of their past two encounters.
Yet, the 21-year-old proved that her meteoric rise from an unknown to a SEA Games gold winner in 2019 was based around her unflappable temperament when the odds were stacked against her. After all, she had already defied all expectations by beating several higher-ranked fencers en route to qualifying for Tokyo.
Against Lin, she even suffered a potential mental blow when her 1-0 lead was overturned by the umpire into a 0-2 deficit due to technical errors. A weaker-willed athlete would have crumbled with a burning sense of injustice at the contentious call.
Not Kiria. She promptly won the next three points to take a 3-2 lead after the opening round, and kept her lead with deft lunges and blocks against an increasingly exasperated Lin. No matter how aggressive Lin tried to be, Kiria never wavered as she carved out a 15-11 victory to advance.
But when she was complimented on her calmness on the piste, she smiled and said, "Everyone was saying I was so calm, but actually I was freaking out inside. I was so nervous at the start of the match, I almost couldn't maintain my composure.
"But when I was down by two points, I thought there was nothing really to lose; it's just about having the bravery to execute my own moves and not worry too much on the outcome of the match."
Kiria's reward for her mature performance was a round-of-32 clash with world No.1 epee fencer, Ana Maria Popescu. This time the tables were turned, as the Romanian's vastly superior experience gave Kiria no way back from an early deficit, even though she clawed her way back to as close as 10-11.
Yet, even as she eventually lost to Popescu 10-15, Kiria relished the chance of competing with the very best in her sport.
"(Ana) really showed that experience plays a very big role at the Olympics. She knew exactly what actions to take at every stage of the match," she said.
"It has just been a very eye-opening time for me in Tokyo, and I think I learnt a lot from watching the competition. Hopefully, if I have another chance to compete at the Olympics, there'll be a better atmosphere with fans able to attend."

Like Kiria, Chew was eager to soak in as much of the Olympic experience as he possibly could. The 25-year-old was gleefully posting photos of the table tennis arena on social media, and even walked in with the Team Singapore contingent at the Opening Ceremony on Friday.
Despite returning late to his Games Village accommodation after the ceremony, he was up early the next morning and raring to take his Olympic bow in his men's singles round-one tie against Senegal's Ibrahima Diaw at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium later in the afternoon.
"I had a good feeling about my match, because somehow I always seem to perform well whenever I competed in Tokyo, such as at the 2014 World Team Championships," Chew told Yahoo News Singapore.
"It has been my life's dream to compete at the Olympics, and I had butterflies in my stomach during my match."
Whatever elation he had felt in fulfilling his sporting dream, the world No.186 Chew still had to buckle down and find his wits around an opponent ranked world No.70. Despite Diaw's powerful strokes and deceptive serve, Chew was able to adjust his game plan and use his decade-long competitive experience to subdue the Senegalese and win a roller-coaster match 4-2 (11-4, 4-11, 11-3, 13-11, 3-11, 12-10).
Upon clinching the winning point, Chew fell to his knees and let out a guttural roar. He later admitted the roar came from a huge sense of relief after a tough tussle with Diaw.
"The last two sets were very tough, as I was having a lot of trouble with his serves," he explained. "But towards the end, I told myself to calm down and focus on what I needed to do.
"You know, I'm really enjoying my stay at the Olympics. Getting the victory meant I get to stay longer, so I'm especially glad at that."
Indeed, Chew will aim to continue his progress in the men's singles on Sunday with a round-two tie with Austria's Daniel Habesohn. You can be sure he will be spurred on by the thought of prolonging his Olympic dream in Tokyo.

Q: No suitable driver for H2 Database I am following the Play tutorial from http://semisafe.com/coding/2015/06/12/play_basics_database_access.html, specifically the "DEFINING A SCHEMA WITH EVOLUTIONS" part, which shows the usage of H2.
As intructed there, I added "com.h2database" % "h2" % "1.4.191" to my build.sbt and removed the jdbc dependency.
Then, I added up and down actions for database tables in the file conf/evolutions/default/1.sql.
Then I added this to conf/application.conf:
slick.dbs.default.driver="slick.driver.H2Driver$"
slick.dbs.default.db.driver="org.h2.Driver"
slick.dbs.default.db.url="jdbc:h2:./db/overlord;MODE=MYSQL"
slick.dbs.default.db.user=sa
slick.dbs.default.db.password=""

After running the evolutions, I started the activator and typed h2-browser to see H2 in the browser.
However, in the browser, when I am passing it the database URL, I am getting:
No suitable driver found for ticket-overlords/db/overlord 08001/0, where ticket-overlords is the name of my project.
Why is this happening?

direct | Americans leave dozens of cars at Kabul airport | Abroad
1 year ago Brian Rodriguez
The US withdrawal from Afghanistan is complete, and its 20-year existence ends
Taliban: Our country is now completely independent
09.41 – Taliban dismantle checkpoints at Kabul airport
The Taliban have dismantled almost all checkpoints on the road to Kabul airport. The last US soldier boarded the plane there on Monday evening, after which the extremists took over the airport.
Taliban leaders have now made a triumphant visit to the formerly heavily guarded airport. Surrounded by fighters wearing special forces equipment, they searched wrecked American helicopters.
The photos were taken by an elite Taliban unit called Badri 313 at the airport. The fighters displayed American rifles and the white Taliban banner.
Before leaving, the Americans rendered useless dozens of armored vehicles and aircraft. Cockpit windows were smashed and tires shot. The C-RAM air defense system was also left behind.
The airport has been the epicenter of a chaotic evacuation by Western countries for the past two weeks. Thousands of people gathered in hopes of getting a place on an evacuation flight. Many other people did not cross checkpoints set up by the Taliban in the area.
Agence France-Presse reported that there was only one checkpoint left on the road to the airport on Tuesday. The Taliban guards are in a great mood there. They shake hands with passing motorists and passengers.
9.06 – "Several hundred" Britons in Afghanistan
After the departure of the Western soldiers, there are still "several hundred" British in Afghanistan. So said Foreign Minister Dominic Raab, who told Sky News that about 5,000 other citizens had been evacuated.

The United Kingdom and other Western countries have carried out a chaotic evacuation of the airport in the Afghan capital, Kabul, over the past two weeks. This has now come to an end. The last US soldier boarded the plane on Monday evening. Then the Taliban captured the airport.
In the last days of the evacuation, another bloody attack occurred at the entrance to the airport, the monastery gate. The news site Politico wrote that despite fears of an attack, the gate was kept open for longer because the British were still evacuating people.
The bombing killed nearly 200 people, including 13 American soldiers. Raab told Sky News that the UK had not put any pressure to keep the entrance open. "This is simply not true."
8.01 – The United States distributes a photo of the last soldier to leave Kabul
The US military has released a photo of the last US soldier to leave the Afghan capital, Kabul. It's Major General Chris Donahue.
The photo shows Donahoe on a C-17 transport plane. "The last American soldier to leave Afghanistan," read the comment on the Twitter account of the Central Command of the Armed Forces.
The United States completed its withdrawal from Kabul on Monday night. This ended 20 years of Western military presence in the country where the fundamentalist Taliban movement took power more than two weeks ago.
7.01 – Taliban calls for US withdrawal a victory for all Afghans
Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid congratulated the Afghan people on the withdrawal of US forces from the country on Tuesday morning. "This victory is for all of us," he told a news conference at the airport in the Afghan capital, Kabul. Mujahid described American immigration as an "important lesson for other invading forces" and for the world.

A Taliban spokesman spoke hours after the last Americans left. He declared that Afghanistan is now a "free and sovereign country". We want to maintain good relations with the United States and the world. We welcome good diplomatic relations with everyone."
After the Americans left, the Taliban fighters entered the airport grounds. They shot into the air to celebrate their victory. The fundamentalists have asked Turkey, a NATO member, for technical assistance to keep the important airport running, but they want to do the security themselves.
The Turkish authorities have not yet agreed to the Taliban's proposal. It is also unclear which airlines will operate scheduled flights to Kabul now that the Taliban have returned to power there.
6.35 – Americans leave dozens of vehicles at Kabul airport
General Kenneth Mackenzie.
Ⓒ ANP / HH
The US military left dozens of planes and vehicles at Kabul airport as it departed. After announcing the complete withdrawal from Afghanistan, General Kenneth McKenzie said the anti-aircraft guns used on Monday to repel a missile attack by the Islamic State had been abandoned.
According to McKenzie, 73 planes and helicopters, 27 Humvees and about 70 armored fighting vehicles are involved, at a cost of up to $1 million. He emphasized that all equipment was "demilitarised" or disabled. "No one will use it again," the general said.
The planes were already at the airport when the Americans began the evacuation two weeks ago and had already been disabled.
6.30 – Blinken: A new chapter in US-Afghanistan relations
According to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, the United States has "started a new chapter" in Afghanistan. Hours after the US withdrawal from Afghanistan was completed on Monday night, Blinken said his country would now lead a "new diplomatic mission."

The withdrawal marks the end of the 20-year US military presence in Afghanistan.
The military mission is over. "A new diplomatic mission has begun. He did not rule out cooperation with a Taliban-led government in Kabul," Blinken said. "If we can work with a new Afghan government in a way that protects our national interest, then we will."
The United States no longer has an embassy in Afghanistan. Diplomatic relations will be maintained from the Embassy in Doha, Qatar.

Commentary OpinionBETWEEN THE LINES
The times they are a changin'
Exclusive: Joseph Farah, former leftist, lists ways 'progressives' have flip-flopped since '60s
By Joseph Farah
Published April 17, 2013 at 7:58pm
Not everyone remembers the '60s and '70s as clearly as I do.
This was the period of tumult and change that inspired Barack Obama and his friends – people like domestic terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, both acquaintances of mine during that era.
What's striking to me, as someone who lived through that time, is not how the warped ideas have triumphed and now dominate the mainstream culture. What's striking to me is how the arguments of the left back then have been stood on their head, turned 180 degrees, flipped completely – so that the things the so-called "progressives" were for then, they are now against and vice versa.
I've already discussed in some depth how the left of the 1960s and '70s loved firearms, brandished them, made heroes of those who did and advocated extensive weapons training for the purpose of overthrowing the established order. Today, now that they are the established order, they seek to tightly restrict the possession and bearing of arms. Why do you suppose that is? Because they don't want to lose their position of power.
Here's another example: Back in the '60s and '70s, during what was termed "the sexual revolution," the argument made by the progressives was that "what people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms is not the government's business." Today, however, the left is imposing hate-crime laws against anyone who objects to flagrant and public displays of sexual deviancy. Now it's everyone's business what people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms – or anywhere else for that matter. There are even affirmative action programs in place – special privileges – for those who are other than heterosexual. The "alternate" lifestyles advocated in that era have become the "preferred" lifestyles.
Back in the '60s and '70s, the "progressives" mocked marriage and even monogamy. Today, they insist the institution of marriage is for everyone, regardless of gender.
Back in the '60s and '70s, the "progressives" complained the deck was stacked against women and minorities. Today, they insist on stacking the deck in favor of women and minorities.
Back in 1968, the "progressives" rioted at the Democratic National Convention. Today, they run the Democratic Party and protest anything and everything Republican.
Back in the '60s and '70s, when the "progressives" were promoting abortion on demand, they insisted it was because women had an absolute "right" to make decisions about their own bodies. Today, those same "progressives" and their disciples defend the murder of babies outside the mother's womb – even female babies!
Back in the '60s and '70s, the "progressives" said they had a right to protect their own children from prayer and Bible reading in the public schools and succeeded at eliminating it. Today, the "progressives" say that parents are not really the guardians of their children – that they belong to the entire community collectively.
Back in the '60s and '70s, the "progressives" complained about the majority imposing their morality on the minority. Today, the "progressives" never miss an opportunity to impose their version of morality on others.
But you get the idea.
Here's what I take away, as a former leftist who saw through the lies and hypocrisy:
The so-called "progressives" have no respect for the rule of law. They will use the law when it is advantageous for them and discard the law when it no longer suits their objectives.
The so-called "progressives" have no fixed values. They're blowin' in the wind.
The so-called "progressives" are in rebellion against God and His order.
The so-called "progressives" aren't for progress at all. Progress was what America's founders gave the world in the form of self-government and limited government. "Progressives" are really "retrogressives" who want to return to the old system that dominated most of world history in which the state was supreme, not the individual.
The so-called "progressives," while they claim to represent the interests of minorities and the oppressed, actually seek to keep minorities and the oppressed in chains because they make good subjects for them.
The so-called "progressives" hate just about everything that made America the greatest experiment in liberty the world has ever known.
Do I have that about right?
Does it take a former leftist to understand the manipulation and tyranny the so-called "progressives" embrace?

A portrait of Pocahontas, 1616.
We all think we know Pocahontas, but her real story is very different from the popular image. Pocahontas was an extremely talented and lively 10-year-old girl when Jamestown was founded in 1607. She was the daughter of the Great Powhatan, who ruled over numerous client tribes in the Chesapeake, the region the Powhatans called Tsenacomaca, and he selected her for a special role because of her intelligence and personality. Captain John Smith said her "wit, and spirit" made her stand out.
Smith first met Pocahontas when he was captured a few weeks after the first colonists' arrival in the area. He was brought before the Great Powhatan, where he encountered men with clubs ready, he thought, to beat out his brains. Suddenly Pocahontas intervened and put her head on his. In his 1624 Generall Historie of Virginia, New-England, and the Summer Isles, Smith wrote that she risked her own life to save his, but modern scholars think she was probably playing a scripted role in some kind of adoption ceremony. Afterward, Powhatan called Smith his son.
The interesting thing is that Powhatan had chosen Pocahontas, a girl of 10, to do this.
After this episode, she began visiting Jamestown. She never just wandered in — she always came with a group of Powhatan's envoys, and her presence signaled that they came in peace. The English learned, many years later, that Pocahontas was only a nickname. Her real name, Matoaka, had been concealed for fear the English could do her harm if they knew it. During this early period, when Powhatan was getting tools and weapons from the colony in exchange for badly needed food, colonial leaders presented Powhatan with a newly-arrived boy, 13-year-old Thomas Savage, and Powhatan gave a young man named Namontack in return. Such exchanges were common in relationships in the region; the boys could learn the other side's language and customs and serve as go-betweens in the future. Pocahontas was there to help Thomas adjust to his new life.
But soon the Englishmen's constant demands for food became too much. Virginia was deep in the worst drought in 770 years, and food was scarce. At the beginning of 1609, Smith led a party to visit Powhatan, and things seemed to be going well. But in the middle of the night, as the English slept, Pocahontas, Powhatan's "dearest jewel and daughter, in that dark night came through the irksome woods" to warn Smith of a plot to kill them. Smith tried to reward her with "such things as she delighted in," but with "tears running down her cheeks," she said if she were seen with English presents, "she were but dead." We can't know if she was again acting on her father's instructions or if she did indeed risk her life to warn them.
Powhatan moved his capital farther west to a location much harder for the English to reach, and Pocahontas quit visiting the fort. Thomas Savage moved with the Powhatans, and was soon joined by another boy, 14-year-old Henry Spelman. Everything changed while they were at Orapax, Powhatan's new capital. Henry absconded to join a friendlier chief on the Potomac and Pocahontas intervened to save his life when her father sent men to bring him back. Powhatan decided it was time for Pocahontas to enter adult life, so she married a man named Kocoum. And he sent Thomas back to Jamestown, severing his last ties with the colony.
Little was heard from Orapax for a while. Then, toward the end of 1612, Capt. Samuel Argall was, as usual, looking for food. As he entered the Potomac, he heard rumors that Pocahontas was visiting there and he made up his mind "to possess myself of her by any stratagem that I could use." His plan was to exchange her for English men held by Powhatan. He forced the Patawomekes, the people who had sheltered Henry Spelman after he left Orapax, to trick her into going on to his ship and sailed away with her, so 14-year-old Pocahontas returned to Jamestown as a prisoner.
Jamestown's leaders soon discarded the plan of using her in a prisoner exchange and instead now saw her as their key to success.
A young puritan minister named Alexander Whitaker instructed her about Christianity, and a man named John Rolfe began to fall in love with her. Sometime in the spring of 1614 Pocahontas "renounced publicly her country Idolatry, openly confessed her Christian faith, [and] was, as she desired, baptized." Colonist Ralph Hamor announced this in his 1615 book, A True Discourse of the Present State of Virginia; this publication included a letter from Gov. Sir Thomas Dale with exactly the same wording, stressing that her conversion was voluntary. Her baptismal name was Rebecca, and she became Rebecca Rolfe when she married John.
Karen Ordahl Kupperman is the author of Pocahontas and the English Boys: Caught Between Cultures in Early Virginia, available now from NYU Press.

Home > Cybersecurity > Vulnerabilities in Bluetooth specifications discovered
Vulnerabilities in Bluetooth specifications discovered
Last week vulnerabilities were found in Bluetooth specifications that could, for example, allow attackers' devices to pass themselves off as legitimate during the pairing process and trigger man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks, whereby they intercept messages and possibly alter them without the victims realizing.
The specifications in question are Bluetooth Core and Mesh Profile which define the technical and policy requirements for devices that wish to operate over Bluetooth connections. Researchers at the Agence Nationale de la Sécurité des Systèmes d'information (ANSSI) have identified a number of vulnerabilities in the specifications that make Bluetooth communication vulnerable to attack.
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (Bluetooth SIG), which oversees the development of Bluetooth standards, has already issued security warnings with recommendations for each of the seven security flaws affecting the two specifications.
In addition, CERT at Carnegie Mello University studies security incident response and handling, named Android Open Source Project (AOSP), Cisco, Intel, Red Hat, Microchip Technology, and Cradlepoint as the vendors identified so far with products affected by these security flaws. Some vendors have already spoken out about the vulnerabilities – Android Open Source Project has even classified one of them (CVE-2020-26555, identity theft in pairing protocol), as high severity and said it will release a patch in an upcoming security bulletin for the Android system.
Why does it matter? Bluetooth devices are at the heart of the evolution of smart devices. Their use is spreading rapidly in sensitive applications such as wearable devices used in healthcare, location-based services, and connected commercial lighting.
And of course, as a wireless data transfer standard, Bluetooth has some associated cybersecurity risks. The most common of these are BlueSmacking (a way to perform a denial-of-service attack against a Bluetooth-enabled device), BlueJacking, BlueSnarfing, and BlueBugging (all with the aim of hijacking a Bluetooth device for sending or stealing data).
