Organizations are feeling the heat. Companies across all industries are under pressure to innovate and create new ways of doing business to stay relevant. For financial services organizations in particular, these pressures are even stronger due to fierce competition from industry behemoths as well as new, "born digital" start-up companies. Among the many challenges: balancing complex and ever-changing regulatory and compliance requirements with efforts to boost effectiveness and reduce costs through digital transformation, cloud service usage and smarter business processes.
A key component of such innovations is enabling optimal user access to systems while ensuring appropriate security measures are maintained. For a growing number of organizations, internal and external users are accessing systems from all over the world and from a variety of devices. This means that the identities of these users and their associated access, rather than the network, are forming the new security boundary around the organization. This paradigm shift highlights the importance of getting identity and access management (IAM) right, both to facilitate the business and to stay ahead of audit, compliance and regulatory requirements.
In the global Executive Perspectives on Top Risks for 2019 study from Protiviti and the NC State University ERM Initiative, which included responses from 825 board members and executives worldwide, "cyber threats" and "privacy/identity management and information security" were two of the top 10 risks for 2019. Furthermore, "existing operations meeting performance expectations, competing against 'born digital' firms," which ranked tenth in 2018, jumped to the top of the list for 2019.
Verizon's 2018 Data Breach Investigations Report identified more than 2,200 breaches in 2018, 76 percent of which were financially motivated and 28 percent of which involved insiders. The Verizon report also showed that 75 percent of breaches are tied to credential theft and otherwise ineffective IAM, including RAM scrapers (malware), phishing and privilege abuse.
How do financial services organizations balance these risks, along with compliance and regulatory pressures, against those of the business demanding streamlined services and more efficiency and automation? Effective IAM programs establish the process and governance and provide the services to help companies excel in today's fast-paced landscape. However, most organizations have substantial room for growth in their IAM processes. Protiviti's benchmarking data suggests that less than one in five organizations are optimized to deliver IAM services that both reduce risk appropriately and consistently meet emerging regulatory requirements.
IAM programs need to demonstrate compliance with regulation, mitigate major risks to the enterprise, and provide effective and efficient services to the organization. Organizations can deploy all the latest technology they can get their hands on, but without a mature IAM program over all of it, the technology will neither provide the business the value it seeks nor demonstrate to audit and compliance organizations that it is meeting control requirements.
The right skillsets and expertise to both manage existing and deploy new IAM services to the organization.
Furthermore, IAM programs must be able to articulate key metrics tied to enterprise business and security control objectives. When communicated to the organization, these metrics should provide a view of IAM program health, demonstrating compliance and progress against remediation activities and informing business cases for future investment.
These metrics must be visible to executives and used to drive accountability for the performance of the IAM program. In our view, they fall into one of three categories: coverage, performance and user communities.
Financial services organizations are investing significant resources in cloud-based technologies, including infrastructure, platform and software as a service. These allow for rapid scaling, moving operational burden from the organization to expert third parties, and can add substantial value and competitive advantage.
That said, these services also create potential audit, compliance and regulatory concerns with respect to IAM. Many organizations, in fact, struggle to support IAM and privileged access management (PAM) in these environments in a way that both adds business value and mitigates the aforementioned risks. Companies must take heed of the importance of both IAM and PAM in cloud and orchestrated environments.
(1) Is the company aware of all of its compliance and regulatory requirements to ensure that enterprise policy, standards and cloud-specific IAM requirements are appropriately aligned?
For example, does the organization have defined requirements and processes around how privileged accounts used by orchestration tools and in orchestrated environments are being managed, including request and approval, password management, and recertification?
If not, cloud service usage can create compliance challenges that otherwise would not be present on-premises.
(2) Does the organization have sufficient staff expertise in managing IAM in cloud environments?
If not, the organization risks the deployment of ineffective solutions as well as audit, risk and compliance concerns. This may include general cloud security training as well as product-specific certifications.
(3) Has the organization deployed appropriate tooling to allow for effective IAM and PAM processes to be possible?
Deploying the right authentication patterns to provide a smooth user experience along with sufficient security and risk mitigation.
This can free up staff for other tasks that require critical thinking and can be a huge differentiator against the competition. However, RPA brings with it a set of new IAM challenges, as IAM controls that historically have been deployed for human users tend to break down in an environment in which RPA is being employed.
One of the most significant risks we see with organizations using RPA is in segregation of duties (SoD). Humans managing bots that execute various business processes adds a layer of complexity and potential SoD concerns. With RPA in place, organizations now need to be able to track access requests, approvals, recertification and potential SoD violations across both the access of humans and the access of the bots the humans manage.
Additionally, multi-factor authentication (MFA) cannot be enforced with bots in the same way it is with humans. Instead, bot credential management may require the use of a PAM tool or hardware security module (HSM), depending on the process(es) the bot is carrying out. Implementing these controls is critical to guard against internal or external threats of bot credential compromise or misuse.
We've observed many organizations rushing to stay competitive by deploying RPA without planning for these IAM and PAM considerations. With the use of new technologies, new threats typically follow. While the risks we've summarized here need to be planned for, additional new risks will need to be identified and mitigated. Organizations must remain diligent to stay aware of the shifting technology landscape and the potential threats that accompany those shifts.
The increasing attention to data security and privacy has prompted, and will continue to prompt, new and stricter legislation that has significant IAM impacts, considering that much of our data can now be accessed from various locations and devices. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Cybersecurity Requirements of the New York State Department of Financial Services (NY DFS 500) and the coming California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), to name a few, introduce new requirements that organizations must meet or face significant financial penalty as well as organizational reputational harm. (For more information on IAM and the GDPR, read Protiviti's paper, GDPR and Identity and Access Management, available at www.protiviti.com/US-en/insights/gdpr-and-identity-and-access-management).
This means that IAM organizations must balance business desires around factors like streamlined and smooth authentication experiences with compliance requirements indicating when MFA or risk-based authentication is mandated (e.g., in order to access any personally identifiable information (PII), for all privileged activities, etc.). Similarly, administrator-level users with high-risk levels of access to sensitive data may need to perform their duties with advanced PAM controls like session recording, even if it slightly impacts user experience.
It is crucial that IAM organizations partner both with the business and with risk and compliance groups to ensure alignment on these types of requirements. This will allow for IAM services deployed to the organization that can not only serve as a differentiator in a competitive financial services landscape, but also ensure compliance with regulation and risk mitigation.
IAM is top of mind for financial services C-suites and boards as well as for their regulators, as evidenced in the results of the Protiviti/NC State Executive Perspectives on Top Risks survey and Verizon's 2018 Data Breach Investigations Report. To remain relevant and allow the business to succeed in a rapidly changing landscape while maintaining a strong risk and security posture, IAM programs, process and governance, and technology need to be aligned.
Partnerships among the business, the IAM program, and risk and compliance groups are becoming increasingly critical to striking this alignment. No single group can make the informed, risk-based decisions crucial to the company's success in a vacuum. In a competitive environment where process and technology changes can either propel the organization to new heights or cause significant risk and potential negative impacts, it is crucial to solve for this partnership throughout the organization.

Jesus for president (and no one else): a rejoinder to Shane Claiborne
This essay originally appeared as "Jesus is Never on the Ballot! So what?!" at the Libertarian Christian Institute and can be found online here.
One summer during college, while working at a Christian youth camp in Texas, my girlfriend at the time (now wife) mailed me a book called The Irresistible Revolution by Shane Claiborne. I read it within a few days. I couldn't put it down. Other than the stray family member, the communities in which I grew up were all "conservative," whatever that word means. And I don't say that pejoratively. Many causes of the average conservative family are still my own, like the importance of church, family, local community, economic freedom, and hard work. But I bring this up to say that I had never been exposed to Claiborne's style of left-Christianity. And I don't use that term negatively either; I am not even sure Shane would use it to describe himself, but I think socially and economically it is the correct term. He turns guns into garden tools, grows his hair long, goes on hundreds of miles long walks for racial justice, and rides around the country in a van fueled by vegetable oil. This was not a kind of person I ever knew from my youth in the conservative culture of the South.
With that being said, despite the many compelling, radical aspects of Shane's Christianity, his recent call for political participation this November is rather traditional and short-sighted. Shane naively proposes to exchange current political injustice for future injustice. For the Christian, political injustice, no matter who the perpetrator, should be grounds for skepticism when it comes to achieving godly ends through the dubious means of the state. Shane knows not of what he asks.
Shane is right to say in his essay that "Christians still have a hard time knowing how to engage with politics." We should have a hard time knowing how to engage politically this year because ballot-box activism is not the kind of engagement we should pursue. One thing I admire about Shane is his Jesus-centered Christianity; every social and economic issue he takes up seems to me to be filtered through the simple question of "What would Jesus do?" So I ask Shane, What would Jesus do? Would Jesus vote in November?
As he writes, Jesus is not on the ballot. Trump is, Joe Biden is, the libertarian candidate Jo Jorgensen is, and a host of other names that don't stand a chance if history is any indication. Although Claiborne tells us who he's voting against, he doesn't say who he's voting for (granted, there are restrictions on these kinds of overt political endorsements based on the publication type). It's entirely possible he has stated such elsewhere and I missed it, but at least based on last week's article, he makes no such mention. "I will vote against Trump," he writes, and he encourages readers to "vote for love." Who represents love? I can only assume that he intends to vote for Joe Biden and his running-mate Kamala Harris. If I'm wrong and this is not his intention, I sincerely apologize. But if he intends to effect actual change, I can't imagine he will "throw his vote away" on a candidate that he believes has no chance of winning; and if he did plan to vote for, say, Jo Jorgensen and the Libertarian Party, why not just say so? I've never known a libertarian to be shy about their political allegiance. So when he says he will "vote love over fear," what exactly does this mean? Why not just tell readers which candidate most represents "love" to him this November, especially if the stakes are as high as he believes? If our house is on fire would we respond by screaming to those inside what not to do? No, we would be yelling where the closest exit is like someone's life depends on it. What political exit to safety is Claiborne proposing? He doesn't say.
What would Jesus do? I don't think Jesus would vote for Donald Trump, a man with a history of seedy business dealings who once bragged that he can grope women because "when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything." Of course, there are the charges of racism, xenophobia, and the like against our current president, but Christians should also be concerned, if not more concerned, about Trump's foreign policy. I am not accusing Shane Claiborne of being uninformed when it comes to America's long history in the Middle East, but in general I rarely see Christians criticizing Trump for continuing the deadly foreign policy of George W. Bush and Barack Obama (and by extension, Joe Biden).
If Christians should love our neighbors as ourselves, how about we demand that the President lift sanctions that keep food and medical supplies out of war torn countries? How about we demand that he stop the unconstitutional spying and the FISA warrants? How about instead of American flags at the front of the church, our pastors call to end the empire and bring the troops home to their families? How about Christians learn just a little bit about economics and history to see that Christian militarism is a death cult and completely antithetical to the peaceful Christ of the New Testament who was slain on a cross?
I bet Shane Claiborne would agree with all of this. So what is my criticism? For one thing, I worry that left-Christianity (again, my term, not his) places too much emphasis on high profile social issues such as race and immigration at the expense of taking the time to educate itself on similarly significant issues. Of course, what Christian wouldn't agree that black lives matter, and that a racist criminal justice system goes against every biblical concept of justice? So to be sure, I am not saying that in calling attention to those issues, Shane is wrong or that he has to care about my "pet projects." But if his approach to politics this year is essentially a Christian utilitarianism—as in, which candidate will help the most people—Christians cannot only look at the issues on the news. Which Christians are calling for the complete dismantling of the failed and racist War on Drugs? Which Christians are calling for reduced taxes since we know that taxes inversely affect our ability to freely give away our money? Where are the Christians calling for every single military personnel around the world to be brought home today? Finally, which Christians demand the end of the bureaucracy that tells Christian families when and how high to jump in service of the state?
If I deem these other issues to be more important, on the whole, than whatever Shane means by voting for "love," then who is to say that any candidate does or does not deserve my vote? What if I thought President Trump actually would end the constant wars? That would be a strong incentive for me to vote for him. Of course, because I don't think he will end the wars, I won't be voting for him, or any other candidate in November.
I won't vote because the two leading candidates are so far from the Christianity that I, or Shane, know, that I don't think they deserve my vote, my support, and certainly not my stamp of approval. If I am right in guessing that Shane plans to vote for Joe Biden, shouldn't we again ask What would Jesus do? Would Jesus vote for a candidate that supported the racist, groundless War in Iraq, a war that has killed thousands of American servicemen and even more Iraqi civilians? Would Jesus vote for the man who signed the 1994 Crime Bill and previously said that he wanted to be tougher than Nixon on crime? "Lock the S.O.B.s up" is the way Biden phrased it at the time. He even bragged in 1993 that "every major crime bill since 1976 that's come out of this Congress . . . has had the name of the Democratic senator from the State of Delaware: Joe Biden." Biden has been in office since 1973. If he was going to fight for racial, social, and economic justice, then locking people up was a strange way to do it.
Or would Jesus vote for Biden's running mate, Kamala Harris, who has a track record of aggressive prosecutions, including seeking the death penalty, and harsh sentences for non-violent drug offenders? It's not unlikely that she would either become president during a Biden administration, or use the office as a springboard to the presidency, so it is not without cause that she should be factored into one's vote. In a presidential debate in June of 2019, Senator Harris accused Joe Biden of being against Civil Rights-era busing, and when asked about this later by Stephen Colbert, she laughed it off saying, "It was a debate." It's hard to imagine that voting for a former tough-on-crime Democrat like Joe Biden, and a former city prosecutor and Attorney General in Kamala Harris, who made a career out of putting people in prison, is "voting for love."
Shane writes that "opting out [of voting] also has consequences," and that not voting comes from a place of privilege. But isn't the real privileged position the voter who naively thinks that his or her vote will bring about justice? Has history taught us nothing? We don't know what a Biden/Harris presidency would look like, but we certainly know what their past looks like. Privilege is not having to learn history and economics because we think our vote is enough. Privilege is taking candidates at their word instead of their record. Privilege is voting for two people who have done more harm to minorities in America that most politicians could do in a lifetime. Claiborne himself said in March that "…Joe Biden's historic support for the death penalty, mass incarceration and excessive punishment is deeply troubling…." But, confirming my suspicion that Claiborne plans to vote for Biden, he said in the same place that "…there is much work for [Biden] to do to repair the harm of past policies and convince people he is the best equipped to lead in this regard." So Biden's current rhetoric, at a time now when it is extremely unpopular to be "tough on crime," is supposed to erase a career of harm to the very people Claiborne is trying to help? There's nothing more privileged than the bliss of ignorance.
Shane says he will vote against Trump "because I have pledged my ultimate allegiance to Christ." This is a non-sequitur. Allegiance to Christ means we cannot pledge allegiance to anything or anyone else. He says that Jesus isn't on the ballot, but most of the people who are on the ballot are so far from Christ that to vote for them is no different than the Isrealites of old who wanted a king to be like all the other nations.
Shane says that "We need to use every tool in our toolbox," including the vote. But the vote is not a tool, it's an indiscriminate bomb: voters throw it and walk away, only to watch it explode every four years. How did Trump get into office? The vote. How will the next president get into office? The vote. If Jesus is Lord, then Caesar can't be, as Shane rightly points out. But perhaps he has no idea of the infinitely great power the American president holds— power that Caesar could only have dreamed of. I commend Shane for turning weapons into pruning hooks, since this is bringing heaven to earth. But the state is backed by weapons! The state is the epitome of aggression since it claims an exclusive right to legal violence. Why doesn't Shane want to turn the state's guns into garden tools? Voting for anyone perpetuates the reliance and so-called legitimacy of the state. Claiborne writes, "I want to look back and say I did everything I could to stand against fear, and racism and violence." If he opposes violence, which I know he sincerely does, why would he encourage others to vote for any president, when he knows that that office is, historically, the most blatant instigator and purveyor of violence? It is ignorance to think this will change even when Trump is out of office. Between literal wars and wars on inanimate objects, America has almost never not been at war. Would we elect a fox to protect the henhouse?
Why would Christians get in the political mud like pigs this November and play the game of the "lesser of two evils"? If they're both evil, why would we vote for them? Christ constantly proposed third ways— alternatives to the prevailing either/or dichotomies of his day. Christians should take the same approach to politics. Not voting this year, or voting for someone other than Trump or Biden, is a vote: it is a vote of no confidence. We should not have confidence in Trump or Biden's pasts, and we have no basis to be confident about their political futures. Instead, Christians can stay home. They can feed the hungry. They can look out for the widows and orphans in their distress. We should seek social justice through peaceful means, and not call on the state, who is always backed by guns and cages, to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
Shane wrote a book called Jesus for President. But, as he says, Jesus won't be on any ballots this November. So Christians can vote for Trump, or for Biden, or they can vote for someone else who probably won't win. Or, they can not vote. If I am wrong in assuming that Shane Claiborne plans to vote for Joe Biden, then I apologize for the mischaracterization, and he is certainly welcome to correct me. He says to vote for "the poor . . . for immigrants . . . for families separated at our border and for kids in cages . . . for those without health care," and others. In short, he is voting for "love." Who is love? Trump isn't love. Biden isn't love. Harris isn't love. The state, with the American president at its head, is the epitome of force, which is the opposite of the Christ who said that "all who take the sword will perish by the sword," and who calls us to be peacemakers.
So if you believe in love, find a third way this November.

M. Şükrü Hanioğlu
Professor of Near Eastern Studies
Garrett Professor in Foreign Affairs
hanioglu@princeton.edu
I received my B.A. in Political Science and Economics and my Ph.D. in Political Science from Istanbul University. During my graduate years I taught late Ottoman diplomatic and political history as an instructor in the Political Science Department. I wrote my Ph.D. thesis on the political activities and thought of one of the founders of the Committee of Union and Progress, Dr. Abdullah Cevdet.
In 1981 I decided to work on the history of the Committee of Union and Progress during the period from 1889 to 1908, i.e. from its foundation to the Young Turk Revolution. Since the CUP was an underground organization, it was essential to use the organization's own papers to write its history. For this purpose I visited Albania in 1982. After examining the CUP papers there, I published the first volume of this project in 1986. The second volume appeared in 1992, to be followed by a third and final volume. Besides the original CUP documents, I have used other archival sources, including those found in the Turkish, German, Austrian, French, Swiss, Italian, Greek, and British archives.
From 1981 to the present, I have taught courses on late Ottoman political and diplomatic history, late Ottoman history, and Turkish political life, at Istanbul and Bosphorus Universities and the Turkish Naval Academy. I have also taught and conducted seminars at Columbia University, the University of Wisconsin, the University of Michigan, and the University of Chicago. At Princeton I have taught NES 433 (The Near East and the Eastern Question since 1815,) NES 439 (Nationalist Movements from Bosnia to Central Asia: 19th and 20th Centuries,) NES 543, 544 (Ottoman Diplomatics: Paleography and Diplomatic Documents,) and NES 572 (Problems in Late Ottoman & Modern Republican History.)
I supervised fourteen Ph.D. dissertations at Istanbul University, all of them on Ottoman intellectual and diplomatic history. A few examples are: "The Journal Mecmua-i Funun and Its Role in the Ottoman Enlightenment," "Cemaleddin Efgani and His Impact on Turkish Intellectuals," and "Huseyin Kazim and Turkish Nationalism."
At Princeton I have supervised six Ph.D dissertations on Ottoman-Turkish History.

Hanioglu wins Republic of Turkey's President's Grand Prize for Culture and Arts


Australia's top 12 STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® athletes will take the big stage this month on the picturesque foreshore at Geelong's Steampacket Gardens as they compete for the 2019 STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® Australian Champions Trophy.
On April 27th, all 15 athletes will compete in the sport's most physically enduring format. Each of them will take on four of the six STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® extreme disciplines, back to back, in a ruthless knockout competition. The last man standing will claim the title of Australian Champion, and will go on to battle for the title of World Champion at the STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® World Championship in Gothenburg, Sweden in May.
"The STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® Champions Trophy is wood chopping's version of the cricket's Big Bash League. It's fast, it's loud, it's exciting, and it's high energy all the way," said Lee Gooch, STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® Event Director. "Geelong's Steampacket Gardens is a great location for it. This year's festival event will include food trucks, live music and kids' rides - all free thanks to the support of the Geelong City Council."
Only the best have what it takes to complete in the sport's toughest format, as each athlete uses razor-sharp axes and high-powered chainsaws to chop and saw through four blocks of wood in less than a minute.
The Aussies have a strong history of success in all formats of the extreme sport, but none more so than in the 2017 Champions Trophy competition. In 2017, Australia's own Brad De Losa from Lithgow, NSW claimed an unmatched third World Champions Trophy title in Hamburg, Germany, making him the most successful athlete in the format. He is the current world record holder at 57.59 secs. De Losa only managed to make 2nd place in 2018's Australian Qualifier, so he will be seeking redemption in Geelong this month. "It was extremely disappointing to miss the opportunity to go back to Europe and defend my title last year, so I'll be looking to make up for that in Geelong and prove I'm still the best in the world at the Champions Trophy," De Losa said.
Brayden Meyer from Broadford, VIC and Sterling Hart from Canada are the only other athletes to have claimed the World Champion title since the competition was founded in 2013. Hart took down Mitch Argent from Blackbutt, QLD in a thrilling semi-final in Marseille, France last year on his way to victory. Meyer won the 2016 competition in the scenic mountains of St. Johan, Austria, at an amazing 2,000 meters above sea level.
All eyes will be on Laurence O'Toole from Doncaster, VIC this year after he won the 2018 STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® Individual World Championship in Liverpool, the sport's biggest prize in which athletes from all over the world compete in all six STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® disciplines. O'Toole will be looking to continue his amazing form from 2018 into the tough endurance format of the Champions Trophy.
"2018 was a huge year and my aim is to carry that momentum into 2019 by taking home the Australian Champions Trophy and then the World Champions Trophy in Sweden," O'Toole said.
But the title of Australian Champion isn't the only reward on offer. This year's eventual winner will claim $20,000 in prize money in Geelong and up to $20,000 more in Sweden the following month.
Australians have a rich history of success in the STIHL TIMBERSPORTS®, linked to the sport's 100-year-strong history where timber industry workers held woodchopping competitions closely simulating their everyday work.
If you can't make it, tune in to the STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® Facebook live stream on the day to catch all the axe-tion!


So if you follow me on Instagram you may have seen that we went to our first water park last week. There was no lazy river unfortunately. Yes, I'm still upset. No, I don't want to talk about it.
Anyway, that absolutely massive disappointment aside, let's begin. Whilst doing our grocery shopping the night before our little adventure, we happened to cruise past the nappy section (whist headed for the cold iced coffee fridge no doubt) and I, by chance, looked up to spot the Huggies swim pants. Yes, that's right, we had plans to swim all day and nearly forgot to pick up some swim nappies. Wouldn't that have been an interesting experience? So I stand as tall as my tippy toes will take me, and pick a packet up announcing to the whole aisle "Ah yes, swim nappies, I've found them". I was really hoping to fool Jason into thinking I'd actually been responsible enough to add these suckers to the list days ago as we'd talked about. I'm really not convinced I fooled him, being that I'm sure my face gave away what I was actually thinking, which was "Why the heck are 11 of these just shy of $14? Do the working class not swim over there at Huggies HQ?".
I'll add that he occasionally reads this blog so I'm sure what cover I may have had is blown now, nonetheless. Fancy Thai food tonight?
I oddly found it difficult to find unbiased reviews of these bad boys online so I figured I'd bite the bullet and give them a go. Coles had a home-brand alternative for less than half the price, but those are a lot harder for majority of you to find and purchase so I gave them a miss. For the record, with Summer coming, I'd be more than happy to rate, review and compare cheaper alternatives to Huggies – if that's something anyone would be interested in seeing. (Really, anyone at all. I'm not brave enough to try store brand with no reviews without some type of encouragement. Sorry Coles, I've made that mistake one too many times, and this time involves baby by-product).
So, lets start with negatives in order to end on a positive note. An issue I found with these, is that they tend run a little small. Uh Tiffani, of course they do, the aim is to avoid unexpected code browns, remember? Ok yes – but we had to purchase a size larger than we typically would with regular old Huggies and they were still incredibly hard to get around chunky baby legs. They're the pull up style of course, but twice as hard to get on.
Only two sizes were available to us, so I wonder how far the size range actually extends had we have gone to a different store. I cannot seem to find a box of these to purchase in bulk as you are able to do with most other Huggies products, so there are no discounts for buying a larger quantity as of right now.
Now the positives. Overall, I did find them to work pretty well. They were comfortable – I'm assuming, as my daughter would have loudly announced her discomfort if they were not (hello Halloween pumpkin costume). They held together great despite the one nappy being submerged for about an hour, nothing unwelcome escaped and they didn't irritate my daughters skin – despite it being sensitive as of late. They also have tear away sides, which I appreciate in case, well, she uses them for their intended purpose. Do they keep urine contained? This I can't confirm nor deny, but as for any swim pant, I would assume the answer is kinda yes, kinda no?
They weren't the most discreet nappy she'd ever worn, but the colourful Nemo themed print serves as a welcome distraction at changing time- those with roll-y babies know what I'm saying, and my daughter loves the sound they make when she waves them around (though I'm not sure if this is a positive or not honestly, as she was pretty upset when I had to take it from her when I was done…).
This is not an affiliate link, I repeat this is not an affiliate link! I just thought it might be a little bit handy. Sorry UK mums, I sadly couldn't find a link for you!
Stretch Mark Miracle? Or Slippery Scam?
OK. So I might have clickbaited you – well, sorta. Let me explain.
One of my biggest and most haunting fears when I became pregnant was stretch marks, and there is seemingly a large debate as to whether or not those stripey little suckers are preventable. Some say that if you lather yourself up in coconut oil it'll be smooth (slimey) sailing, so I took the liberty in becoming your slippery guinea pig.
Young and somewhat insecure me thought hey, if Francine the Fitspo mum can prevent stretch marks with body butter, I can too! So sure enough, I stocked up on "stretch mark preventing" body butters, vials upon vials of rosehip oil, chugged gallons of water and made sure to take my fish oil three times a day! Those monounsaturated fats were good for the elasticity of the skin, after all.
Throughout my pregnancy, I maintained this silly routine of moisturising my skin five times daily. I must have smelt horrible, because rosehip oil – despite the misleading name – smells more like salmon than anything else. I gained only 10kg by 39 weeks (not as "lucky" as you'd think – blame the gestational diabetes diet for my inability to consume copious amounts of lamingtons). My own mother had not even a single stretch mark! By 38 weeks I thought I'd escaped! Cracked the code! A true miracle! But, the joke was on me, I woke up covered in stretch marks three days before I gave birth. Yes, in the space of 7 hours, I gained all of my "stripes". Sigh.
The part I found to be the most shocking (aside from the total cost of all that bloody oil), was that I didn't care. I carried my beautiful baby girl to term, I grew her perfectly. My body did something I was told it may never be able to do – and this was the very small price I had to pay. It was worth every penny. This whole experience taught me a valuable lesson though. Love the skin you're in. Cliche, I know. It wasn't until now that I truly realised just how amazing a woman's body is and what a miracle child bearing really is.
Are they preventable? No, probably not. Do I recommend skipping the gimmicky products tailored to the insecurities of women with changing bodies? Eh, probably f it were me doing it over, I'd pick up a cheap moisturiser from Woolies and skip the fancy stuff. In all fairness, I can't say it did nothing. Constant buttered-up skin did assist greatly with the pregnant belly itch, and, post birth my new found stripes had faded to silver by my 4 week check up. My point? Don't expect too much from body butter, and treat yourself to a nice new handbag (or several, with the cost of rosehip oil, seriously), instead! There's nothing wrong – or unnattractive – about the beautiful thing your body is doing, so rock those amazing stripes proudly!

These are a few pictures of what I got in my box from Misikko. It has been used once on my leave out when I wore a half wig two weeks ago.
I ordered my flat iron in May but did not receive it until June because my shipping company took their time getting it to me. I am in the market for a new shipping company or sky box, if any of you ladies in Trinbago know of any please share.
i am so jealous! which hana flat iron did you get? and how much was it to bring it down to trini? oh please do a review!
I got the 1.5" Titanium, I paid around TT $140 to clear it, I will check the exact figure when doing my review. That price is not the norm, as you can see, that box was big for just a flat iron so I won't depend on it.
Do you ever intend to get one?
I do, but nothing jumped out at me on my last trip to pick up one.

Payers: At-home COVID-19 test coverage will drag reimbursement into 'the olden days' upon rollout
Nick Moran - Friday, January 14th, 2022 Print	| Email
Under a time crunch, payers are bracing for a messy rollout of a new federal rule requiring insurers to cover at-home COVID-19 tests, The New York Times reported Jan. 14.
The rule was introduced Jan. 10 with an implementation date of Jan. 15. But Bob Wanovich, Highmark's vice president of ancillary provider strategy and management, told the Times his company would need weeks to set up the framework to reimburse members.
"The guidance came out Monday, and we started working on it immediately, but I don't have a mechanism ready to go, Day 1, where you don't have to pay up front," Mr. Wanovich said.
The dissonance stems from the fact that at-home tests lack the billing codes payers rely on for reimbursement. Until a system is established, Ceci Connolly, president and CEO of the Alliance of Community Health Plans, said a physical reimbursement process by which customers submit receipts may be required.
"This is taking things back to the olden days, where you'll have a person throwing all these paper slips in a shoebox and eventually stuffing it into an envelope and sending it off to a health insurer to decipher," Ms. Connolly told the Times.
Jenny Chumbley Hogue, a Texas-based insurance broker, told the Times that implementation delays may throw members into a "six-month nightmare trying to get reimbursed." She has been encouraging members to save test receipts and boxes.
However, Mr. Wanovich told the Times that although insurers still face the challenge of creating preferred pharmacy networks for at-home COVID-19 tests and navigating reimbursement challenges, consumers face a larger challenge: finding accessible, reliable tests.

Under the Arengo Palace's portico, which dates from 1204, justice was administered and the municipal assembly met in the hall with multi-lancet windows situated on the first floor.
Next door, is the fourteenth century Podestà residence where the entrance is underlined by an arch with Malatesta symbols. Garampi Palace, which is now the municipal residence, was built at the end of the sixteenth century, modifying the façades of the Arengo and Podestà Palaces.
Following an earthquake in 1916, which brought to light remains of the medieval buildings, restoration work was carried out that redesigned the palaces in Neo-gothic style.
The Agostiniani built the church, which is rectangular-shaped with an apse and two side chapels, in the thirteenth century. The decorations that remain in part consist of frescoes and a wooden crucifix attributed to the fourteenth century Rimini school of art.
In the eighteenth century, Ferdinando Bibiena modified the façades and the interior, which was enriched with stuccoes and frescoes by Vittorio Maria Bigari. The fourteenth-century painting was actually hidden and only came to light in 1916 following an earthquake. The Giudizio universale, which is on the triumphal arch, was removed in 1926 and is now housed in the Municipal Museum.

Russia Sends Controversial Convoy Into Ukraine
Kiev calls it an 'invasion'
Posted Aug 22, 2014 4:52 AM CDT
Updated Aug 22, 2014 7:53 AM CDT

(Newser) – Russia sent dozens of aid trucks into rebel-held eastern Ukraine today without Kiev's approval, saying its patience had worn out with the Ukrainian government's stalling tactics. Ukraine called the move a "direct invasion." The move sharply raised the stakes in eastern Ukraine, for any attack on the convoy could draw the Russian military directly into the conflict between the Ukrainian government in Kiev and separatist rebels in the east. Russia says the white-tarped semis said to be carrying food, water, generators, and sleeping bags are intended to help civilians in the city of Luhansk, where government forces are besieging pro-Russian separatists.
In the past few days, Ukraine says its troops have recaptured significant parts of Luhansk, the second-largest rebel-held city, and suspicions are running high that Moscow's humanitarian operation may instead be aimed at halting Kiev's military momentum. Fierce fighting has been reported this week both around Luhansk and the largest rebel-held city, Donetsk, with dozens of casualties. The International Committee of the Red Cross, which had planned to escort the Russian aid convoy to assuage fears that it would be used as a cover for a Russian invasion, said it had not received enough security guarantees to do so today. "This is a direct invasion done under the cover of the Red Cross for the first time ever," said Ukrainian security service chief Valentyn Nalyvaichenko. "These are military men who have been trained to carry cargo, trained to drive combat vehicles, tanks and artillery." (Read more Ukraine stories.)

Getting Started with C++ Language
C++ Data Types and Modifiers
C++ Variables and Scope
Strings and String Functions in C++
Dive into C++ Operators
Decision Making Statements in C++
Loop Statements in C++
Exploring C++ Functions
Understanding Arrays in C++
Understanding Arrays In C..
Sriram Hariharan
Array is a data structure in C++ programming language which can be used to store large amounts of data of the same type. The general definition of an array is "An array is a group of elements of the same name and the same datatype."
Syntax of declaring and initializing arrays
In C++, you can declare an array with the following syntax :
Datatype array_name[array_size];
The syntax to initialize an array is ,
Datatype array_name[array_size]={value1, value2, value3 …. valuen};
You need to remember that you cannot create more values within the braces than the value declared in the array_size.
Need for arrays in C++ Programming
To understand why you must use an array, let's take the below example
int c = 3;
int xyz = 10;
Instead of declaring the variables separately, and then performing operations individually on each of these variables, you can define them together in an array.
int arr[10]={1, 2, 3, …. , 10};
arr[0]
These types of arrays are referred to as single dimensional arrays. In this case, the compiler will assign contiguous memory locations to the variables starting from arr[0] till arr[9]. The array index starts from 0 and ranges to n-1, where n is the last value defined in the array. You can also define the array as arr[] in which case an array with the memory just as big to hold the variables will be created.
Types of Arrays
In C++, there are two types of arrays :
One dimensional array (or) Single dimensional array
Multi-dimensional array
One dimensional array
In a 1-D array, the array elements are arranged in a linear fashion in a single dimension. The syntax of a 1-D array is :
Datatype array_name [array_size];
Example of a single dimensional array
int a[5];
for (int i=0; i<=5; i++)
cout <<" The address values are : " << &a[i] << '\n';
The output of this program will display the address values of a[0],a[1],a[2],a[3] & a[4] :
Multi-dimensional array is nothing but a matrix of values. It's an array or arrays (two-dimensional) or array of array of arrays (three-dimensional).
Two-dimensional array
For example, we can consider a two-dimensional array (mark[3][3]) that stores the marks of 3 subjects of 3 different students. The values will be stored in the following manner :
Mark[0][0]
The syntax to define a multi-dimensional array is :
datatype array_name[array_row_size][[array_column_size]
Example : int mark[3][3] = {{80,70,55}, {95,91,89}, {67,69,76}};
Example program for two-dimensional array :
}int mark[3][3] = {{80,70,55}, {95,91,89}, {67,69,76}};
for (int row = 0; row <= 2; row++)
for (int column = 0; column <= 2; column++)
cout << "Element at mark[" << row << "][" << column << "] is : " << mark[row][column] << '\n';
The output of this program will be :
Three-dimensional array
A three-dimensional array is the same as a two-dimensional array, just that there is one more dimension added to the array. In the previous example, we saw that there were two loop statements to traverse through the array elements. In this case, we will have three loop statements to traverse through the array elements.
Example of a three-dimensional array declaration
int array[2][3][4] = {{80,70,55,64}, {95,91,89,90},
{67,69,76,80},{50,55,43,61},{77,88,67,98},{81,85,89,79}};
Example program for three-dimensional array
int array[2][3][2] = { { {80,70}, {95,90}, {76,80} }, { {50,43}, {77,88}, {81,85} } };
for (int a = 0; a < 2; a++)
for (int b = 0; b < 3; b++)
for (int c = 0; c < 2; c++)
cout << "Element at mark[" << a << "][" << b << "][" << c << "] is : " << array[a][b][c] << '\n';
The output of this program will be
In this chapter, we have taken a look at the following topics :
Introduction to arrays in C++ programming
Why do we need to use arrays?
LINQ or Language Integrated Query is a part of the Microsoft Dot Net framework which provides easily understandable data querying facilities to .Net languages such as C#, VB.NET, etc. LINQ is a readable code that can be used as a standard way to extract data from XML documents, arrays, relational databases, and other third-party data sources. LINQ allows us to write queries over local collection objects and remote data sources like SQL, XML documents, etc.

Q: Android studio - Sync gradle takes too long when a lot of flavors (>70) I have an android project with :
2 flavorDimensions (customer and mode)
I have more than 70 customers and 2 types of mode : normal and extra.
All customers are "normal" and only one customer is "extra".
I'm using variantFilter { variant -> to limit number of build variants when syncing my project to avoid useless customers combined with mode "extra" because there is only one customer with this mode.
For example :

*

*Customer1NormalRelease

*Customer2NormalRelease

*Customer3NormalRelease

*Customer4ExtraRelease

*Customer5NormalRelease

*Customer6NormalRelease

*...

The problem is when I'm trying to sync gradle with a lot of variants, it takes huge time for each variant.
When Inspecting build : Resolve dependencies of :appCustomer1NormalReleaseCompileClasspath takes 8minutes.
Moreover, I don't understand why appCustomer1NormalReleaseCompileClasspath try to resolve dependencies for others variants because they are totaly different (no sense).
My dependencies are global to the project, no variant specific dependencies.
I'm using :

*

*Android studio 3.1.3

*classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.3'

*distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.4-all.zip

*org.gradle.daemon=true

*org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx4096m
-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

*Gradle global settings : offline work

*all libraries are remote and I have only one local library

Any idea ?
Some help would be greatly appreciated

A: Wow I found where was the issue !
I'm using OneSignal to push notifications
I'm using gradle.plugin.com.onesignal:onesignal-gradle-plugin in my build.gradle (app) to ensure correct behaviors.
I just changed
classpath 'gradle.plugin.com.onesignal:onesignal-gradle-plugin:0.10.2'

to
classpath 'gradle.plugin.com.onesignal:onesignal-gradle-plugin:0.11.2'

and the build was super fast. 2 minutes to build all flavors :O
So If you have too a problem like this, check your gradle plugins !!!


A Space Chain is a space-frame structure made with circles. Here the circle is used to form a grid that can carry cubes.
A Space Chain is a space-frame structure made with circles. A model to show how the circle is used to form a grid that can carry cubes.
A Space Chain is a space-frame structure made with circles. Friedman applied this idea first in his project for the medina of Tunis in 1959.
A space-frame structure made with circles has the advantage that the pattern can be changed at any given moment. The circle can be used as the face of a cube or a tetrahedron. The spheres can be connected by using circle on circle as a point of connection, becoming irregular polyhedrons. This allows for building all sorts of shapes and is easy to work with.
A Space Chain structure is easy to build with as long as the material can be bend rather easily and is rigid enough to keep its shape.
Here a group of people in Terrasson constructed a Space Chain dome.
Here a group of people in Germany carry a Space Chain dome they constructed.

What happens when you add infinite scroll and Mix It Shuffle to a gaming site, well you have MixItBig a feature brought to you by Y88.in that allows you to shuffle through the 28,000 odd games like a pack of cards. The MixItBig button appears at the bottom right hand corner of your screen and allows you to continuously add games to the mix by scrolling downwards.
If you take into account the recent innovations brought to you on Y88.in including SocialDJ the youtube mixer, Mix It to rank game order and now MixIt Big to leverage infinite scroll in Mixing behavior, you'd conclude that were on a 'mixing roll'.
This fun feature which treats games like a pack of cards allows you to ruffle through the games and have fun watching all the games rolling by. This gives you the player a train window view into the wide spectrum of games available on Y88.in , it also eases you and relieves you of the task of searching and finding the right game of choice to play.
The technology aspect of this mashup is actually the fusing of three Jquery technologies, the first by Paul Irish that allows you to scroll infinitely the second by Dessandro that arranges the games like a mason lays bricks and the third by kunkalabs that sorts , ranks and animates the mixing effect.
If you take into account the advanced game tagging feature that destroys itself when misused then you'd say…were having fun bringing you the latest in technology to make your free game more fun.
