Hackers tap the power of ZeuS to target business bank accounts
The FBI, says the paper, has been tracking dozens of companies in the US whose bank accounts have been drained as a result of hackers using ZeuS to gain access to their managers' online banking credentials.
The paper asserts that organisations as diverse as Detroit-based Experi-Metal and the Catholic Diocese in Des Moines, Iowa, are reported to have lost $1.14 million between them.
According to Idappcom, the vulnerability testing specialist, the reason for the hacker diversification to business bank accounts is that they tend to have higher bank balances, as well as having several people – and therefore several sets of user credentials – to access the account online within a given business.
"Ever since ZeuS first appeared back in the summer of 2007, we have been tracking its steady progress, especially since the trojan horse was successfully modified in the spring of last year, when hackers discovered they could extend the malware's functionality through the use of extensible code and scripting", said Ray Bryant, Idappcom's CEO.
And now, he added, as a number of US firms are discovering, the malware is still very much alive and kicking, and has drained business bank accounts of several hundreds of thousands of dollars.
These bank account mules, says Bryant, are often blissfully unaware that their accounts are being used for criminal purposes, and, on receipt of an email or text message from their 'employer,' are wiring the bulk of the money onwards to the criminal's bank accounts, leaving them with their 'commission.'
The FBI statistics, he went on to say, are breath taking in terms of their diversity and the volume of money being hoovered up from business bank accounts, with 390 reported cases in the last two years, centering on attempted thefts of $220 million and actual losses of $70 million.
Bryant claims that these cases – more than one every 48 hours – are just those that have been reported in the US and are almost certainly the tip of the iceberg in terms of business bank account losses.
"As the [newspaper] says, quite correctly, with the Automated Clearinghouse in the US processing an amazing 600 transactions per second, it's almost impossible for the US banking agencies to monitor every transaction for fraud", he said.
"The big question, however, is for how long the banks and insurance companies will continue to reimburse losses due to ZeuS trojan activity, as the losses involved are bound to have had a negative effect on business insurance rates these last two years", he added.
"Businesses, as well as consumers, need to be ultra-vigilant when accessing their bank accounts online, and take every security precaution possible."

We believe it is essential that we all take action to stand against the ongoing racism and oppression of Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC). As a collective research team, we recognize our position of privilege and power, and we seek to use our privilege as researchers to uplift the voices of BIPOC communities and individuals. In our research, we seek to recruit and report findings in a way that is both accessible and valuable to these voices. We seek to identify and give voice to the injustices which BIPOC communities have faced systemically ever since the violent beginnings of this country, and continue to face through generational and systemic oppression. In light of the events of 2020, during which the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others brought forth a necessary movement towards change, we stand in solidarity with protesters who stood, walked, and persevered on behalf of the Black Lives Matter movement.
We also want to recognize the violence impacting trans people of color, including the attack of Iyanna Dior and the murder of Tony McDade. As a research team, we wish to continue efforts to dismantle racism, injustice, and systemic oppression by implementing activities to educate and advocate. We recognize intersectionality in our work and the compounded effects of marginalization. We also hope to uplift, celebrate, and focus on research and work by BIPOC academics and leaders. We commit to the endeavor of self-education and personal accountability.

Dennis Kimetto – The Farmer who Became a World-class Sprinter.
Lovelyn Okafor
Dennis Kimetto's outstanding performance at the 2013 Chicago Marathon remains atop the list of his most celebrated victories.
Born in Eldoret, Kenya in January, 1984, Dennis remained a subsistent farmer until he discovered his true passion. The state of things at the time didn't promise much light but the rising star wouldn't let go.
He began casual racing training and coached himself really hard. And in time, his resilience yielded great dividends.
Through an unplanned meeting with Geoffrey Mutai the Boston and New York City Marathon course record holder in 2010, Kimetto was invited to join Mutai's training camp. And that was the day purpose officially announced him.
You know James Allen was right when he said "The world steps aside for the man who knows where he is going" for that exactly is Kimetto's story.
Kimetto achieved his first major win in the half marathon section of the Nairobi Marathon in 2011. His first race outside his base was in 2012, by which time he was running world-class times, and had hit a world best for 25K of 1:11:18.
Source: thehindu.com
The dark skinned sprinter made his marathon debut in Berlin in September 2012, finishing just a second behind his mentor; Geoffrey Mutai, in 2:04:16, which happened to be the fastest debut in history on a record-eligible course.
Many observers believed that Kimetto deliberately gave up the slot for Mutai, as some form of appreciation for believing in him and allowing him the opportunity to be seen by the world. The victory gave Mutai that year's World Marathon Majors title and a whopping $500,000 prize.
At the RAK Half Marathon, Kimetto again proved his skill by defeating a field of great athletes including the world class sprinter Wilson Kipsang Kiprotich. He won the race in 60:40 minutes.
2013 presented another beautiful opportunity for Kimetto who was all set to grab it. He achieved his first marathon victory at the Tokyo Marathon in February 2013, where he ran 2:06:50 to break the existing course record (Dickson Chumba recently broke Kimetto's record in 2014 at 2:05:42).
Source: enca.com
Kimetto also won the Bank of America Chicago Marathon in 2:03:45 with course record out-running compatriot Emmanuel Mutai in the final kilometer. The two sprinters were neck-and-neck for much of the race before Kimetto pulled way in the closing stages to win the first major US marathon since the bombings at the Boston Marathon in April. It was also recorded the third-fastest time ever run on a record-eligible course.
With his winning time at Chicago in October 2013, Kimetto became the third fastest marathoner in history on a record-eligible course.
But then, like they say; you win some, you lose some. The Kenyan sprinter had his first baffling marathon experience at the 2014 Boston Marathon. He entered as every observer's sweetheart, but dropped out after the 35-kilometer mark.
But that has not discouraged the shining star as he continues blaze the trail. Kimetto is another proof that anyone can achieve anything if he works hard in it and never gives up.

Like Dennis Kimetto, you can become the world's best if you stand strong and pursue your dream courageously.

Vantaggio HR began working with SoMe Connect in 2013. SoMe updated its website and put in motion a social and online marketing program that has increased its verified online leads from a handful each quarter to two or three a month.
SoMe created its website and put in motion a social and online marketing program that has increased its verified online leads from a handful each quarter to two or three a month.
Small and mid-sized companies make up 90 percent or more of the U.S.'s employers. According to the last census, companies with 500 employees or less accounted for 99.7 percent of those businesses, and businesses with less than 20 workers made up 89.6 percent.
For an HR firm targeting small to medium-sized companies in any industry, it seems like fishing in that big of a pond would be easy. However, with that big of an audience, it's crucial to target and speak to only those companies willing and able to move through your sales cycle productively.
"First, we used technology (in this case the website) to centralize activity so that the Vantaggio team could focus on closing and doing what they do best. Second, we know SMBs want advice and solid content, so we thoughtfully incorporated this into our plan. Last, we set-up a marketing system designed to target prospects by size and concern," explains Keith Newsham, Senior SEO Specialist at SoMe Connect.
SoMe re-created Vantaggio HR's website, has improved the company's LinkedIn presence, handles its social media marketing, maps its keywords, does landing page optimization, authority-building and offsite SEO, and coordinates follow-up marketing like email blasts and other internal communication.
Aside from great tactical execution and a deep knowledge of social media and online marketing, Vantaggio appreciates SoMe's account management.
A recent email blast project stands out as an example of how quick and responsive the team is, Dickey said. "We surprised Alexandra with the request in response to a last-minute event. She responded after-hours and got us a draft for review by the following day. I knew it was a long shot asking for copy and design in that short of a timeframe, but she got it done – copy and everything." In addition to increasing the number of qualified leads coming through the website, SoMe's work has also compounded upon itself and improved over time. Since 2013, the number of leads has increased 100 percent over the first year.

UPDATE: G-III Apparel sales fall short as tariffs weigh, stock slides 6%
G-III Apparel Group Ltd. (GIII)
By Ciara Linnane
GIII SPX
G-III Apparel Group Ltd. shares /zigman2/quotes/201364718/composite GIII +0.76% slid 6% in premarket trade Wednesday, after the owner of brands and licences including Donna Karan, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger missed sales estimates for the third quarter and lowered guidance to reflect the impact of tariffs. The New York-based company said it had net income of $95.4 million, or $1.97 a share, in the quarter, up from $94.0 million, or $1.86 a share, in the year-earlier period. Adjusted per-share earnings came to $1.99, ahead of the $1.94 FactSet consensus. Sales rose 5% to $1.13 billion from $1.07 billion, but missed the $1.17 billion FactSet consensus. "We maintained good momentum in our wholesale business, in spite of the challenging retail and macro environment," Chief Executive Morris Goldfarb said in a statement. Support from the company's Chinese vendor base helped offset some of the impact of tariffs, he said. The company revised its guidance for fiscal 2020 to incorporate the expected impact of tariffs implemented Sept. 1 and now expects sales of about $3.20 billion and EPS of $3.10 to 3.11. Adjusted EPS is expected to range from $3.06 to $3.16. The current FactSet consensus is for EPS of $3.16 and sales of $3.29 billion. Shares have gained 2.2% in 2019, while the S&P 500 /zigman2/quotes/210599714/realtime SPX +0.39% has gained 23%.

Lets start with, what is Network security? Network security means the protection of the information and systems and the hardware In addition to that it also need to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data or resources. And talking about the threats which is rapid increase in the network parts. In 2001, the National infrastructure Protection Center at the FBI released a document summarizing Ten Most Critical Internet Security Vulnerabilities. sans Tops 25 software errors(https://www.sans.org/top25-software-errors) These is the important vulnerabilities which can be common in many other companies to to patch up their hole in the system.
In the more details of the respective subject that is information states can be in the processing, storage or transmission. And the security properties are confidentiality, integrity and availability. The security measures are the policy and procedures, technology and education, training and awareness.
CIA where confidentiality means to prevent the disclosure of sensitive information from unauthorized people and process. And the integrity means the prevention of system information from being modified. Availability means to make available of the data and system to the authorized users when needed. It was the information security properties. Now the information can in the following states like in the storage which means the data is in the rest condition. It can be located in a database or stores in local drive. network shared drive or in cloud storage. Example can be a USB key or external drive if they are not being processed. Now talking about the information in processing state, the data is in use. example can be creating a new document or processing a payment. Similarly the data in transmission is when information is transferred from one network node to another when sending email or retrieving a web page.
And different security measures can be used to be aware of information security that is policy and procedures, through technology, education, training and awareness.
Trojan is a type of the malicious program that disguised as a legitimate software. This programs can provide unauthorized access to the user's computer. The name came from the Ancient Geek story. The working is also like similar. The way they disguised the horse to invade the troy.
Overt component: Overt component can be seen or in the form dis-tractor to the users. It comes in the games, freeware software and dis-tractor software.
Cross-Site Request Forgery is another web based attack. For the basic understanding, Suppose a user's browser may be running a script from a good site and also malicious script from a bad site. This can happen when the user has logged into the good site and kept the session alive. For examples the user has logged into Gmail and has not logged off and Similarly the user may be browsing the other sites include bad site that sends the malicious script to the browser. The malicious script can then forge a request to the good site using the user cookie. but they do not know that the request was not sent by the user.
In the figure above, the user logs in and establish session with good site, and keep session alive. Similarly, the user browses a bad site and runs malicious script on the browser. The malicious script forged request to the good site.
A user logs into bank.com forget to logged off. The session cookie remain in the browser. If the user is phished to visit a malicious website attacker.com which sends an HTML page that contains a hidden I frame that include the malicious content, that the HTML page with action will be performed on the bill payment form of bank.com. In this way the malicious script forged the request on be half of user without knowing the users. Just for understanding you can see the script below.
The following pictures depicts more.
At first my source of writing is from udacity, intro to information security. for more information we can view from the udacity website.
The following figures with the relationship of threats, vulnerabilities, attack and Risk will demonstrate more.
But, we can follow the CIA principles.
> Confidentiality: It is roughly equivalent to privacy. The ability to hide information from those people unauthorized to view it.
What should the good guys do?
To reduce the vulnerabilities, follow the basic design principle for securing systems.
Economy of mechanism – Keep systems simple and small.
Psychological acceptability – Don't expect people to do what is inconvenient.
In any application the central security requirement is controlling the user' access to its data and functionality. There are different kinds of users some are authenticated users, some are anonymous, some are administrative. The application should be handled so that users can reads the emails own not of others. The following security mechanisms can be used to handle the application.
The authentication mechanisms is basic way to handle the user access. Authenticating is the process of knowing who he/she claims to be. Authentication used in application by basically with the user name and password. In the security critical application like for bank, there can be additional credential or multistage login processes. for the higher security requirement other authentication model may be used based on client certificates, smart cards or challenge response tokens. The authentication process should be carefully handled because any flaws in design and implementation. Flaws can be taken advantages by the attacker to use to guess user name and bypass password and unauthorized access to sensitive data and functionality.
The another task for handling the users are session management. First I want to explain session. After successfully login into application user access different pages and makes series of HTTP request from its browser. At the same time different user some are authenticated and some anonymous try to login the application. So to identify the different users. The application meet the way to create the session for each user and issuing the user a token that identifies the session. Session itself is data Structure held on the server that track the state of the user interaction with application. When the user receive the token, submit it back to the server in subsequent HTTP request enabling the application to associate with that users. When the users does not make request for certain time then the session is expired.
In the term of attack, attacker can use other tokens to authentication and use application. similarly another areas of attack is knowing the how the tokens are generated. Attackers can guess tokens to access different others user tokens.
Access control also called authorization is the process to access the particular resources to be granted or denied. Authorization and authentication are different things. From the authentication it can be known the which kinds of the users are and according to the types of users the resources are granted or denied that is authorization or access control. So access control is important part of application. Omitting the access control check part causes attacker to gain unauthorized access to data and functionality.

Match-up. That's all about match-up.
The unused potential of peak Ulrich is unreachable.
Lars Ulrich can't even play the drums properly, nevermind play tennis.
Prime Ulrich. His trash can snare would destroy Fed's eardrums and Fed would be forced to retire.
Ulrich's prime ended after the justice album. So that is more than 25 years ago. If you want some real competition then bring up Dave Lombardo, Gene Hoglan, Nick Barker or some drummer of any of those sick Death, Thrash or Black Metal bands.
Federer obviously. He's so arrogant that he could play tennis with a guitar. Ulrich's arrogance is puny in comparison to the mighty Federah.
Lars's dad played at Wimbledon. Did a Happy Gilmore running serve thing that was banned. Fed would triple golden set them both while wearing an ice skate on one foot and rollerblade on the other, playing lefty with the string bag still on his racquet.
This pic Lars' father looks like Rhasputin!

MEEK AT THE MOVIES : Captain Phillips ( 2.5 STARS )
^ Tom Hanks as pirated cargo captain in Paul Greengrass's "Captain Phillips"
Back in 2009 the whole world watched rapt as an American cargo ship was seized by pirates off the coast of Africa. To save his crew, the captain offered himself up as hostage and was subsequently cordoned off in a lifeboat pod with a posse of armed and anxious pirates looking for a multi-million dollar ransom. Eventually the US Navy and SEAL Team 6 got involved and brought about a quick resolution. It made for great drama then and would seem a natural fit for film, but though harrowing, "Captain Philips" never quite gets below the surface of the whole ordeal.
All of this might come as a bit of a surprise because "Phillips" is directed by Paul Greengrass, who adroitly chronicled the intrepid doings of the doomed 9/11 passengers in "United 93." His poignant insight and meticulous care for every passenger's story and plight rang through cleanly and affected with a genuine earnestness. Here that acumen feels lost or at best, severely muted.
"Phillips" begins rather no-nonsense with the captain (Tom Hanks) and his wife (Catherine Keener) driving to the airport and bantering about how their children are growing up in a harsh world where being righteous and diligent isn't enough anymore (perhaps an omen of what's to come?). Shortly after, Phillips and his crew load up food aid for Africa in the Arabian Peninsula and do a once over of the Maersk Alabama. Phillips is working with a new crew that aren't quite up to his standards and neither is the ship, which ominously has unsecured 'pirate gates.'
As a result of such shabbiness, once underway around the Horn of Africa, Phillips insists on drills, but just as he sounds the alarm, two speeding skiffs packed with armed men come at the enormous cargo carrier. The Somali pirates fail in their first strike, but have a trailing mother ship to refuel at, and are back nipping at the Alabama the next day.
Three things drive these men on the high seas, money, mind games and stimulants. The pirates, who can speak English, imposter the Somali Coast Guard, while Phillips, knowing they are listening in, pretends to call in an air strike and later, after the Alabama is boarded, lies about the operational condition of the ship. The Somalis, gaunt, angry and hard to tell apart, all gnaw on a narcotic stimulant known as khat and when offered thirty thousand dollars to just be gone, they laugh and whimsically mention that their last take was six million dollars, to which Phillips asks, "Then why are you doing this?" It's a good question that unfortunately never gets adequately addressed.
Phillips's men too, see the whole situation as a transaction and don't want to take on the task of repelling the pirates (they use a series of high power water cannons) because they're not getting paid enough and ultimately end up hiding in the hold while Phillips deals with the armed intruders.
There are some intriguing bits of chicanery deployed by Phillips and his crew to stem the pirates, but eventually Phillips ends up in the survival capsule with the armed men and the US Navy on their tail, and that's where the film breaks down — or goes on too long. It becomes an endless loop of the pirates debating whether to kill Phillips and the Navy eternally searching for the right seam to let loose its mighty hammer. One thing is given : the US will not allow the Somalis to take Phillips ashore alive.
The film based on Phillip's memoir, "A Captain's Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALs, and Dangerous Days at Sea," has recently come under fire by crew members who claim it's a gross fictionalization of what really happened. Complaints, too, have come from the company which allegedly sent the Alabama through pirate infested waters as short cut to save on fuel costs.
The recent Danish film "A Hijacking" also covered a similar real-life arc with great palp and soul by burrowing into the lives and motivations of those in peril as well as their captors. Here Greengrass (who registered much respect with his guttural Bourne films) wows with gorgeous oceanic vastness and crisp, taut editing, and Hanks, on his game, conjures up a thespian tempest; yet without the charts and logs to deepen the now, the full force effort labors as much under the weight of its shallow effusiveness.

BOSTON MAYOR FINAL : THE ITALIAN VOTE ? YES INDEED
^ Two Sal's Two : John Connolly receives the Yes — at Warren Prescott School in Charlestown
Today at 1:30 PM John Connolly received endorsement from two Sal's : State Senator Sal DiDomenico, representing Charlestown and parts of Allston-Brighton, and District One City Councillor Sal LaMattina. Aboard the Connolly campaign they join State Representative Carlo Basile of East Boston, former District One Councillor Paul Scapicchio, District Nine Councillor Mark Ciommo, the North End's State Representative Aaron Michlewitz, Susan Passoni, and top Menino fundraiser Vinnie Marino of Roslindale.
Yes, dear reader, as you can see, there is an "Italian vote" even in supposedly Irish Boston. And it counts. But first, indulge me in a little trip through Boston social history :
1. Voters of Italian name continue to reside, chiefly, in most of the Boston places that their grandparents lived in : much of the North End; half of East Boston; Readville; one precinct of Ward 6 in South Boston; a significant scattering in Roslindale, Fairmount Hill, and West Roxbury; and a tight little area hard by Brighton Center, to which Italians from the region of Frosinone and San Donato came, three generation ago, to work in quarries. They amount to about 14 percent of all Boston voters.
2. Because the ancestors of most Boston voters of Italian name arrived in Boston later than the forbears of most Bostonians of Irish name, voters of Italian name still show some connection to ethnicity.
3. Since voters of Italian name proved strongly outnumbered by those of Irish name, the custom grew in Italian-name neighborhoods of backing for Mayor not an Italian candidate –who was presumed unlikely to win — but an Irish name candidate who would make a deal with the Italian communities — by way of their political leaders. Italian-name voters tended to vote as a family group; and, not knowing particularly well the Irish-name candidates — who almost always lived elsewhere in the city — they followed their leaders' recommendation. More than once, the "block" vote in Boston's Italian-resident areas won the Mayor's office for the Irish name candidate -chosen by those leaders. It was stupendously true in 1959 — when Collins beat Powers -and importantly so in 1967, when Kevin White beat Louise Day Hicks.
Scroll forward again to now. We have John Connolly and Marty Walsh. Walsh lives in Dorchester, far from any Italian-name neighborhood. John Connolly lives in West Roxbury, at opposite remove from most Italian-name sections of the City. It is a very 1959 situation.
Yes, via social media and a flood of news sources almost every italian-name voter of 2013 knows at least something about both men. Yet few voters know them well. In this voting situation, sponsorship by a trusted local leader can still make a difference. One or two such sponsorings might not turn many heads in this the internet era; but six or seven leaders of same heritage banding together — plus an issue; in this case, school reform — surely will turn lots of noggins.
There was an issue in today's Sal and Sal endorsement. The event took place outside Charlestown's \Warren Prescott school, and both Sal's talked of their working together with Connolly on school reform agendas.
^ LaMattina — Connolly — DiDomenico
Connolly's band of Italian name pols may even arouse the really BIG Italian name I have yet to mention, a guy you are probably already thinking : Tom Menino, the only Italian-name Mayor that Boston has ever had. What will he do in this election ? Will he do ANY thing at all in it ?
I think that he will. I think that he is already doing it. The events taking place seem to prove that he is involving himself mightily. They cannot be an accident. One endorsement, maybe. Seven ? Not just chance. Menino is indeed involved. And not just among "The Italian vote."
Did I say "just" the "italian vote" ? It matters a lot more than "just." Come to the Columbus day Parade this Sunday as it winds through the North end, and you will see much. Come to the after-party at Filippo Restaurant (hosted by Philip Frattaroli, who was a City Council candidate this year). But most of all, think of the families that stand out. In Brighton, Salvucci, Mummolo and Cedrone; in the North End, Passacantilli, Anastasi, Coppola, Anzalone, Langone; in East Boston, Buttiglieri, Aiello, Aloisi, Mangini, Lanzilli, Faretra, Marmo. Readville : Scaccia, LoConte and Pulgini. Fairmount : Pagliarulo and of course Rob Consalvo. From Roslindale, Vadala, Iantosca, and Ferzoco; from West Roxbury, Settana. And the Iannella's….
So what's it all add up to ? Pretty basic if you ask me. Yes, the race between Walsh and Connolly is turning into a battle of economic classes (as we all knew it would be). But not every Boston voting bloc identifies by economic class. The "Italian vote' has almost always — as my list above shows — identified by family and neighborhood. John Connolly is smart to pursue, in this matter, the strategy that won the 1959 race for John Collins and the 1967 race for Kevin White.
Come to think of it, Kevin White looked a lot like Connolly, lived in the same area, pursued a "new Boston vision" just as Connolly is doing, talked the language of "downtown," and — again like Connolly — came from a family long involved in Boston politics. And had the good sense to court East Boston's Mario Umana. For the Kevin White of 2013, it's "so far, so good." Only 26 days remain until we know if it's good enough.
Tomorrow : The Walsh strategy
^ City Council colleagues : LaMattina and Connolly


(a) The provisions of AS 11.16, AS 11.81.600, 11.81.610, and 11.81.900 apply to AS 43.50.640 and 43.50.650.
(b) For purposes of AS 43.50.640 and 43.50.650, display of cigarettes by a person, or possession other than in the original and unopened shipping container of cigarettes by a person who holds a business license endorsement under AS 43.70.075, is prima facie evidence of possession with intent to sell cigarettes. In this subsection, "display" means to openly exhibit.


The much awaited eighth part of the Harry Potter franchise is out with a marked visibility of a huge rush for it. The fact that the book is a play script rather than a standard Rowling prose form has not deterred the fans from delving into the magic world one last time to reunite with the characters that has formed a part of the lives of many.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child-the new instalment from the Potter universe picks up right from where the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows had ended. The story revolves around Albus Severus Potter who is heading off to Hogwarts for the first time as Harry, Ron and Hermione come to drop off their children at platform Nine and Three – Quarters exactly 19 years after the Battle of Hogwarts.
(Following paragraphs contain minor spoilers)-The play shows Harry as a father who is struggling to establish a comfortable relationship with his younger son-Albus. The father-son duo struggles with the burden of Harry's heroic past and the expectations that come on Albus with the legacy.
As the young Albus sets off to newer adventures at Hogwarts he finds a friend in Draco Malfoy's son Scorpius Malfoy. The misfits battling through the shadows of their family name find solace in each other's company and quite contrary to Harry and Draco's relationship the new Potter-Malfoy duo has each other's back when required. Though Albus might not be Harry, his character is as intriguing if not more. However, Scorpius' character- total departure from that of his father, has provided a new favourite to the fans.
Apart from the newer generation of Potter and Granger-Weaseleys, a new character- Delphini is introduced in the book and she plays a crucial role. The two part play is written by Jack Thorne and the story idea is by JK Rowling. The book is in script form instead of the prose and hence has short sentences and a lighter read. Though the writing is good and gripping, it loses on the ground of poor storyline.
The Cursed Child seems to suffer in equal proportions as the protagonists of the play. Rowling has once again dabbled in the concept of time travel through Time- Turners as in The Prisoner of Azkaban.
The characters travel back and forth in time to change the present (the story explores the topic of how past actions change our present or future). The storyline goes a little bleak when the consequences of these time-travels are explained. The book also explores the complex relationships that exist in the grown-up Potter's world. As the Boy Who Lived still struggles with the ghosts of his pasts, it casts shadow on his present relationships and adds to his suffering. The friendship between the original trio needs no further establishment and has been touched upon in a subtle way (as it should have been). However, the changed relationship dynamic between Draco and Harry is something that sure has delighted the fans. With the mention of past actions other characters also make an appearance in the book and understandably Lord Voldemort's character also makes appearance in the story adding drama and action to the story as always.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child promised everything that a Potterhead would have ever wanted. It would be safe to say though that it has not been able to deliver as good a product as a Potterhead would expect it to be.
Although the book is a script, it should not have to be so weak story-wise. At some points of the story, it almost seems like a fan-fiction rather than coming from Rowling. Revisiting the story and seeing their beloved characters back in action sure does provide fans with that magical feeling and the story has remained true to the original characters. However, the loosely strewn story disappoints in the larger context. It reverberates the theme depicted in the book, time-travel has serious consequences and messing with our past actions need not result in favourable results. It is high time that both the author and fans accept the fact that Harry Potter series is wrapped up and should not be messed with so as to not risk ruining the legacy of the Potter franchise.
All said and done, a Potter fan would delight in the new details provided about the original characters and new characters and villains that lead the story to its end.

HomeMobileAndroidHow to Get Sound Measurement with Android Decibel Meter Apps
How to Get Sound Measurement with Android Decibel Meter Apps
Have you ever been in a very quiet environment and wondered what the decibel numbers the place must have? Of course, you haven't. But now that Apple has a decibel meter to watch OS, we expect more people to be aware of the noise levels around them.
If you have an Android phone, you might want to know if you can measure sound on it. And in fact, you can get a sound measurement on Android too with a little app called Sound Meter.
Get Sound Measurement On Android With Sound Meter App
Android users can use the app Sound Meter from Google Play Store as decibel meter fro Android. To measure the sound, just open the app and your Android phone will start to listen to the noise and display on the decibel meter app.
The interface is pretty minimalistic and straight to the point so it doesn't feel all that old, especially with the black theme. The top half od the app's main screen displays the decibel meter/sound meter along with the decibel reading.
It also displays what the current noise around you is equivalent to. You can change how frequently the sound measurement is updated by tapping on the right of the meter "3x/2x/1x"
Right below that is the Text/Graph icon which lets you switch between a graphical and textual representation of the noise levels. There are some controls that let you Calibrate the app, show an ad, reset the meter, pause sound measurement, change between light and dark themes, and take you to the settings page, from left-to-right, and in that order.
In the settings, you can choose to keep the screen on while the app is running, and there's also a Left-handed user mode.
Also read: How to Make Sure Android Hardware is Working Properly?
More Apps to Measure Sound On Android
Sound Meter isn't the only app on the Google Play Store that does what it does but it's certainly among the best. The app has over a million downloads and still enjoys a healthy 4.6 rating where over a million users have shared their opinion about it. Turns out a lot of Android users are actually interested in sound measurement.
Sound Meter & Noise Detector
While there are many similar apps, there aren't many that are actually good. Most of them are marred with annoying ads while others can't take remotely accurate sound measurements. Sound Meter & Noise Detector is one of the rare few apps that are good. Like the previous app, it also provides clear information about different noise levels to help you better understand them.
For example, 10dB is as quiet as the sound of someone breathing while 140dB is as loud as the shot of gunfire. This and a lot more comparative information is available in the decibel meter Android app. The interface is very similar to the Sound Meter app mentioned above.
Download from PlayStore: Sound Meter & Noise Detector
Sound Meter – Sound Pressure Level Meter
Sound Meter – Sound Pressure level meter is one of the few apps that have a different look to them. There aren't many good apps that don't look like clones of the Sound Meter app. The app features a minimal design on an AMOLED black background. Features are pretty much the same as any other sound app.
You can measure the sound levels, of course. It also gives you the option to view a Sound Meter, Sound Graph, or a Digital Sound Graph. Unlike previous apps, you can't switch between these on the fly but have to rather select one from the main menu. To see another representation you have to go back to the main menu.
That's not much of an issue but something that's different. It also lets you calibrate your microphones. Comparative information is also available as with the previous two apps.
Download from PlayStore: Sound Meter – Sound Pressure level meter
Decibel – Threshold Sound Meter (Noise Levels)
Decibel – Threshold meter has an even more distinctive UI but it's not the cleanest looking app out there. This particular app is, however, one of the more polished sound meter apps on Android.
The Android decibel meter has the usual sound meter features, that is, you can obviously measure the sound and see information about it. It also lets you calibrate your device's mics. A unique feature with this app is the ability to set a threshold value. Anytime the app detects sound levels cross that threshold value, it will notify you.
Download from PlayStore: Decibel – Threshold Sound Meter (Noise Levels)
The apps do have certain limitations when compared to an actual sound measurement tool. These are mostly hardware limitations of your device though, which then limit how much sound you can measure on your Android device. The microphones on most devices are calibrated for the human voice. Very loud sounds, such as those around or over 90dB are not recognized as a result.

I'd be happy to help with the soundtrack
"You were so preoccupied with whether or not you could...you never stopped to think if you should." - Ian Malcolm, Jurassic Park
I would gladly help with the soundmix check to if you think two sets of ears is better than one set.

The mix still isn't 100% complete in this clip. there are some stereo Fx yet to go into it to surround & l/r channels but i would like some opinions on how its sounding so far. The music for the opening titles is a new mix and not taken from the DVD, but a surround mix from the audio cd's which, to me, sound higher quality.. The reversed music in the surround channels have been fixed (in the most part is a new resynced track from the audio cd's). Only the center channel remains for the most part. I've added ambient FX to the surround channels (which for the most part on the 2004 dvds was just the reversed music & some sound FX.)
With this i'm aiming for a more theater surround experience, with more Fx in the rear channels when they should be, to give more of a feeling of being in the movie.
Also this is a quick video render and a few shots have been rendered with the wrong source selected ( the first few shots of 3po & R2 have the other droid looking bleached and not the finished colour). Oh well.
heres the video file:
Surround test clip 130mb approx - megaupload
I don't know if they're quite what you're looking for, but I was able to record a couple of landspeeder effects from the Behind the Magic CD. One is a flyby effect, the other is more of a start-up effect.
I had to record the clips through my speakers (didn't know how to rip them from the CD), but I cleaned them up as best I could. Hope they're good enough quality and that they help you out. They're also in mp3 format -- hope you can work with that (it was that or wav).
speeder effect 1
EDIT: I just stitched this clip together from a few separate seconds from one of the episodes of the Star Wars radio drama. If you're looking for a "consistent" speeder sound to use in the background, this may work. I also included another short speeder sound from the same episode.
If you'd prefer, I could upload the entire segment that I used from the radio drama so that you can edit it yourself... let me know.

Hmm, crawl seems a bit sped up in the video; pry just me. I am damn near technology-illiterate (at least in this subject,) so don't take my word for it.
*didn't burn, only watched on comp*
Didn't you say you'd color corrected the explosion shot on the Tantavive (spell)? Possible wrong render shot?
I don't know what to think of it - I like the newly rotoscoped laser blasts though.

Actually the crawl is slightly slower, it just appears earlier . the crawl now appears along with the music cue to match the pre ANH crawl. the crawl after the ANH addition caused the music cue to be off and i always preferred it the way it was originally intended. So for this to happen the speed was slightly slowed or it disappeared too fast.
Didn't you say you'd colour corrected the explosion shot on the Tantavive (spell)? Possible wrong render shot?
No this shot is the final one and it has been corrected. Just look at this comparison and you'll see just how much the colours have changed:
corellian77, many thanks for the landspeeder clips. they were just what i was looking for.
Ick, I forgot how bad the 04 version looked.
Again, I really like the new lasers. They look amazing!
Adywan, I watched the test clip and the sound mix is sounding pretty good. I didn't notice any glitchs or anything like that. And the immersive surround sound effect you were hoping to achieve, well let me say that you have achieved it and to great success. It feels like the sound is all around me rather than muddled like the original. I also love how you have amped up the star visibility in our edit. It really is something to be able to see them so clearly once again. Keep up the good work!

It looks great on the small TV. I was saddened it ended so soon. I'll be plugging it into the HD 64" with 5.1 tonight.
Hey Ady,
Here's my "Speeder Sounds" folder...
Hopefully one of these'll help. Click Here
Just watched the clip. Sounds good, but I think I'll need the entire movie to really form an opinion.
Joking aside, it sounded great!! I can't really think of anything I would change. As some of you may remember Infodroid and I rebuilt the soundtrack for the mace/palp duel in ROTS, which sadly will never see the light of day now
Anyway, I know how hard it is to build the soundtrack from scratch and get all the levels right. Excellent work!!
To comment on other things, I was suprised how clean the video was and the color correction is great. For reference, I watched the clip on my 8ft wide screen with a Panasonic LCD front projector, Denon 5.1 receiver and Boston Acoustic speakers.
I figure you're doing this already anyway, but wanted to double check...
It appears that your main source material is the PAL DVD release. Please make sure that any material that isn't already sourced as PAL (additional music, dialog, sound effects) are correctly pitched up (~4.2% as you know) for your PAL release. This will ensure that the NTSC release will sound exactly like it should once you encode that version. A lot of people here in NTSC-land don't notice much difference from the the PAL speedup, but those like myself hear a huge difference. And it may sound especially odd if some of the additional music gets pitched down on the NTSC encode if not properly adjusted the first time around.
Again, you've probably already taken this into consideration, but I thought I'd throw in my own 2 cents.
O.T. or No T., baby!™
ANH:R Cover Art
ESB:R Cover Art
Done. It looked and sounded great. It is not Star Wars the way it was, but the way I want to remember it. The sound was the best part. The additions, such as the PA system aboard the blockade runner sounded natural.
On a side note, weren't you going to change the tractor beam shot so the rebel ship didn't looked so locked down?
Master Qui-Gon
Adywan you are the best!!!
I want to see the complete edit!!!!!
You are doing a great job! You are changing Star Wars into an up-to-date movie, and you are doing this better than Lucasfilm did!!!

A small suggestion: Have you considered dropping the boarding sound effects just momentarily before the door erupts into a shower of sparks? I think a single beat of silence after the final rumble of bass disipates would add greatly to the tension and also to the sudden shock that follows. Rather than eliminating anything, you could easily extend the static shot of the door to draw out the anticipation somewhat.
And another thing: I've never really noticed any of the continuity blunders that seem to be common knowledge around here and was wondering about 3PO's lower right leg. Has it always been paler than the rest of him or just during the Tantive scenes?
Carry on!
On the subject of formats any chance of a 640x272 avi @ 24 fps version for those of us that use portable players?
ady, sound aside, a few crits from the clip. considering I have also spent months looking at this scene I know it pretty well.
1) frame 3320 to about 3395 there is a noticeable shimmy to the leading left side of the nose of the star destroyer above the Tantive. ovously you've masked here and something is ever so slightly showing through from the background.
2) frame 3600, the laser flash is tinted and not pure white.
3) motion tracking between tatooine and the atmosphere haze in the master establishing shot is off and doesn't line up right. the haze still has motion after the planet has stopped moving. its only a few frames out but....
also the curvature of the haze doesn't match the planet.
Just in case this hasn't already been said, those of you already asking for different versions of this project when it's finished (i.e. NTSC, iPod, portable, etc) really should be ashamed of yourselves.
Adywan is putting SO MUCH hard work and effort into not just the creative changes he's making, but he has had to learn a LOT of new software to pull off all his video, audio and special effects wizardry.
The LEAST any of you who want different formats can do it is figure out how to convert it yourself. This is very easy to do, and spending 5 minutes with a search engine will tell you how to do it and point you to the FREE software that will do it for you.
Asking Adywan to do even more work because you can't be bothered to learn something, in my opinion, is lazy at least and disrespectful at worst.
second the motion.
its hard enough sticking at a project long enough to finish without having to worry about what versions to do.
vbangle
I agree with that with one caveat, NTSC....I don't think you can lump requesting a NTSC version in with other requested formats like iPod versions or the like.......rude? maybe but not unreasonable to ask for NTSC....besides Adywan already said he'd be doing a NTSC version after the PAL was done....or at least I thought that was what he said....
I love everybody. Lets all smoke some reefer and chill. Hug and kisses for everybody.
I think i need to clear a small matter up before i go any further. There will be only 2 versions that will be doing. PAL & an NTSC DVD versions. The PAL will be the first release followed a short time later by the NTSC.\I will leave it up to someone else to do other conversions.
I'm relived that the new sound mix is on the right track. It's going to be a while before i can afford a new surround system so I'm glad that the surround headphones are doing their job. The PA announcement is actually from the radio plays and i added some Fx to convert it from normal speech to that of a PA & thanks infodroid for the speeder sounds. they have been very useful. I did have these sounds that i downloaded from somewhere but they became corrupt so its good to have them again. I think they were from one of the games. I know that i downloaded ripped audio from Star Wars galaxies but none of the ambient sounds from Tatooine worked, along with a lot of the others which would have been invaluable for this edit. Has anyone managed to rip the audio from Galaxies successfully and would be able to somehow post them for me?
Tellan, i know there are a couple of issues with the Tantive shots. these were actually some of the first shot i ever did so theres a strong possibility, if i have enough time, that i will be recompositing the whole sequence.
ady, if you need spacey sound effects ie final battle stuff, the xwing games are a good source.
all of the in game sounds are stereo wav files so there's lots there like hyperdrive, engine noise, lasers etc.
Thanks tellan, i've got a couple of the games so i'll check them out
Darth Richard
Hey Adywan, on the Ben's death clip around 1:26:47:17 you can see the lightsabers casting a shadow on the wall behind Ben.
That means I've got to download the whole DVD9 so I can convert it to xvid/divx? that sucks when your on a 56k modem


At Athenian, 3.1 miles and hot. Check out the results and yes it was HOT!
Keep in mind that Dawson Reckers, winner of above boys race finished in 4th place in the Small School Varsity race at Ed Sias this past weekend and last season ran 9:40.54 as a freshman.
Over 300 feet of elevation gain on this course of 5km. 300 up, 300 down. No other course like it in the Bay Area, that I know of.
The wrong distance was entered which resulted in the wrong pace per miles. That will be fixed.
Wow, that is really steep! I heard it is pretty rugged,as well and a couple of kids sent for medical care. Brutal. How does that compare to Monte Vista (Oak Hill park)? 282 elev. gain and only two miles, I believe.
@Anonymous 2:18 I don't think Monte Vista 282 elevation gain maybe that is Elevation gained and lost? my estimate would be 150. The hills are steeper then at Monte Vista and unfortunately the ambulance had to be called because somebody passed out.


– Credit rating (from Latin credit, "(he/she/it) thinks") could be the have faith in which enables a single occasion to deliver revenue or means to another party wherever that next occasion won't reimburse the primary occasion quickly (thereby producing a debt), but in its place promises both to repay or return Individuals sources (or other components of equal price) at a afterwards date. To put it differently, credit history is often a means of creating reciprocity formal, lawfully enforceable, and extensible to a big group of unrelated individuals.
. The sources supplied could be economical (e.g. granting a financial loan), or they may include goods or services (e.g. purchaser credit). Credit encompasses any kind of deferred payment. Credit score is extended by a creditor, also called a lender, to some debtor, also called a borrower.
Bank-issued credit score can make up the most important proportion of credit rating in existence. The normal watch of financial institutions as intermediaries involving savers and borrower is incorrect. Present day banking is about credit history development. Credit score is made up of two sections, the credit history (funds) and its corresponding debt, which necessitates repayment with desire. The majority (97% as of December 2018) of The cash in the UK economy is developed as credit. Each time a financial institution concerns credit (i.e. tends to make a loan), it writes a adverse entry in the liabilities column of its balance sheet, and an equal constructive figure around the assets column; the asset being the loan repayment cash flow stream (plus fascination) from a credit history-worthy specific. When the personal debt is thoroughly repaid, the credit score and debt are cancelled, and the money disappears within the economic system. Meanwhile, the debtor receives a good dollars harmony (which can be used to acquire one thing just like a house), but in addition an equal damaging liability to generally be repaid towards the financial institution about the period. A lot of the credit score established goes into the acquisition of land and assets, building inflation in All those markets, which is A serious driver from the financial cycle.
When a financial institution generates credit score, it proficiently owes The cash to alone. If a financial institution concerns a lot of negative credit score (those debtors who are unable to fork out it back again), the financial institution will grow to be insolvent; acquiring extra liabilities than belongings. Which the financial institution hardly ever had The cash to lend to begin with is immaterial – the banking license affords financial institutions to generate credit history – what matters is a bank's complete belongings are higher than its whole liabilities, and that it's Keeping adequate liquid property – like dollars – to meet its obligations to its debtors. If it fails to do this it dangers bankruptcy.
There's two major types of private credit score created by financial institutions; unsecured (non-collateralized) credit score including purchaser bank cards and smaller unsecured financial loans, and secured (collateralized) credit, ordinarily secured versus the item getting acquired with the money (property, boat, car, and so on.). To lessen their exposure to the chance of not having their a reimbursement (credit score default), banking companies will are likely to problem huge credit history sums to Individuals deemed credit-deserving, and likewise to call for collateral; a thing of equal price towards the loan, that may be passed towards the financial institution In case the debtor fails to meet the repayment phrases of your financial loan. Within this occasion, the financial institution employs sale on the collateral to lessen its liabilities. Samples of secured credit rating contain purchaser home loans accustomed to purchase properties, boats and so on., and PCP (particular agreement prepare) credit rating agreements for vehicle purchases.
Movements of financial cash are Usually dependent on both credit rating or fairness transfers. The worldwide credit history market is 3 times the dimensions of global equity. Credit is subsequently depending on the popularity or creditworthiness of your entity which can take duty to the resources. Credit can also be traded in economical marketplaces. The purest sort is the credit score default swap current market, which is actually a traded current market in credit rating insurance coverage. A credit default swap signifies the price at which two get-togethers Trade this hazard – the defense vendor requires the potential risk of default in the credit rating in return for any payment, usually denoted in foundation details (one basis place is 1/a hundred of the per cent) of your notional total to become referenced, while the safety consumer pays this premium As well as in the situation of default of the underlying (a bank loan, bond or other receivable), delivers this receivable into the security vendor and gets from the seller the par amount of money (that's, is made entire).
Purchaser personal debt is often described as "funds, items or services delivered to somebody inside the absence of immediate payment". Prevalent kinds of consumer credit score incorporate bank cards, retailer cards, motor vehicle finance, personalized financial loans (installment loans), customer lines of credit rating, retail financial loans (retail installment financial loans) and home loans. This is the broad definition of purchaser credit and corresponds Together with the Lender of England's definition of "Lending to persons". Provided the scale and nature of the mortgage loan marketplace, numerous observers classify property finance loan lending for a different category of private borrowing, and For that reason household mortgages are excluded from some definitions of shopper credit, including the just one adopted with the U.S. Federal Reserve.
The price of credit history is the extra quantity, above and previously mentioned the amount borrowed, the borrower has to pay. It incorporates interest, arrangement service fees and every other costs. Some fees are required, necessary because of the lender being an integral Portion of the credit history agreement. Other prices, which include those for credit score insurance policy, could be optional; the borrower chooses whether They can be bundled as Element of the arrangement.
Desire and various prices are introduced in a number of various ways, but below a lot of legislative regimes lenders are needed to estimate all mandatory rates in the shape of an annual percentage amount (APR). The intention on the APR calculation is to promote "truth of the matter in lending", to give opportunity borrowers a transparent measure of your legitimate price of borrowing and to permit a comparison being designed amongst competing items. The APR is derived from your pattern of innovations and repayments made through the settlement. Optional prices are generally not included in the APR calculation.
Desire fees on loans to customers, whether mortgages or bank cards, are most often identified with reference to a credit score rating. Calculated by private credit score score businesses or centralized credit score bureaus according to aspects including prior defaults, payment record and offered credit score, people today with greater scores are generally presented a lessen APR than Those people with reduce scores.
It's a broadly-held false impression that Those people with excellent credit rating have an even better grasp of taking care of their funds.

Q: Build a mongo container and import data I want to build a Mongo container, and insert some data stored in the folder /mongo_mock_data in this container. Here are my lines of code:
MONGO_ID=$(docker run --publish-all -d --mount type=bind,source=${PWD}/mongo_mock_data,target=/tmp/mongo_mock_data mongo)
MONGO_PORT=$( docker inspect $MONGO_ID |  jq -r '.[0].NetworkSettings.Ports."27017/tcp"[0].HostPort' )
MONGODB_URL=mongodb://localhost:${MONGO_PORT}
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --host $MONGODB_URL --db algo --collection train --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/train_data.json --jsonArray
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --host $MONGODB_URL --db algo --collection calculation --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/predict_data.json --jsonArray
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --host $MONGODB_URL --db algo --collection train --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/cluster_data.json --jsonArray

I have the following error:

error parsing command line options: error parsing URI from mongodb:///localhost:32773/?replicaSet=mongodb:: error parsing uri: must have at least 1 host

any ideas what Im doing wrong?
EDIT:
If I try:
MONGODB_URL=localhost:${MONGO_PORT}
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --host $MONGODB_URL --db pulse_algo --collection train --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/train_data.json --jsonArray

instead of
MONGODB_URL=mongodb://localhost:${MONGO_PORT}
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --host $MONGODB_URL --db algo --collection train --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/train_data.json --jsonArray

I have the following error:

error connecting to host: could not connect to server: server selection error: server selection timeout

A: Is the third slash in mongodb:/// a transcription error? If not, then what is happening is that MongoDB is trying to connect to a server at '' (ie, nothing) to a database named localhost:32773, rather than a server at localhost:32773 & the default database.

A: So, finally, I solved my issue by dropping the argument --host:
MONGO_ID=$(docker run --publish-all -d --mount type=bind,source=${PWD}/mongo_mock_data,target=/tmp/mongo_mock_data mongo)
MONGO_PORT=$( docker inspect $MONGO_ID |  jq -r '.[0].NetworkSettings.Ports."27017/tcp"[0].HostPort' )
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --db algo --collection train --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/train_data.json --jsonArray
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --db algo --collection calculation --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/predict_data.json --jsonArray
docker exec $MONGO_ID mongoimport --db algo --collection train --type json --file /tmp/mongo_mock_data/cluster_data.json --jsonArray

A: In my case, I was getting this error because of passing option --csv instead of --type=csv to mongoexport. Correction of that fixed this issue.
mongoexport type options
Error message could've been better.

How to Safely Celebrate the Biden-Harris Inauguration in DC
Crack an Amtrak Joe Pilsner or Madame Veep IPA.
By Austa Somvichian-Clausen
Published on 1/13/2021 at 10:33 AM

The 2021 presidential inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will take place on Wednesday, January 20, starting at 12 pm eastern time, following Biden's train journey from his home in Wilmington, Delaware to the nation's capitol—a trip the President-Elect took daily for 36 years while he was a U.S. senator.
Biden will then take his oath of office on the West Front of the U.S. Capitol, the same building that just last week was attacked by a mob of Trump supporters, leaving five dead. Thus, in the interest of public safety, the Biden Inaugural Committee has not only scaled back the day's events, but actively urged Americans to watch the inauguration festivities from home rather than risk journeying to Washington.
For those already inside the city, public access to the Capitol grounds will not be available during the ceremony, and The National Parks Service has said that they would close the Washington Monument to tours through January 24 due to "credible threats to visitors and park resources." Keep in mind that roads, parking areas, and bathrooms near the National Mall might also be closed, and that DC Mayor Muriel Bowser has extended the public emergency she declared last Wednesday for an extra 15 days to ensure the safety of all Washingtonians.
"Our goals right now are to encourage Americans to participate virtually and to protect the District of Columbia from a repeat of the violent insurrection experienced at the Capitol and its grounds on January 6," Bowser said during a news conference on Monday.
It helps a bit that House Majority Whip James Clyburn, who chairs the inaugural committee, said last week that a whopping 80 percent of the festivities that would normally take place in Washington surrounding an inauguration would actually be taking place virtually this year, giving Americans the perfect opportunity to stay safe while they witness history in the making.

How to watch and schedule of events
To watch the inauguration events simply flick on any major news network such as ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, PBS, Telemundo, Univision, CNN, and MSNBC. Pre-inauguration festivities are expected to begin at 9:30 am eastern time, while Biden and Harris are scheduled to be sworn in at noon.
For those without cable or a television, you can also tune in via the above networks' YouTube channels, or on the official White House website. Livestreaming from your television sans cable is also possible if you own a device like the Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Apple TV, Roku, or Xbox One. Following Biden's speech, a wreath laying ceremony and "Pass in Review," a virtual parade will replace what traditionally would have been thousands of Americans gathering on the National Mall for in-person festivities.
Inaugural planners have said that the parade will be a celebration of America's heroes, highlighting Americans from all walks of life in every region of the country. It's a fitting celebration to match Biden's chosen theme of "America United," which his inaugural committee has said "reflects the beginning of a new national journey that restores the soul of America, brings the country together, and creates a path to a brighter future."
Jack Rose Dining Saloon
Celebrate from home with inauguration specials
Just because you can't attend the presidential inauguration in-person this year doesn't make the occasion any less a cause for celebration. Instead, don your best red, white, and blue loungewear and nestle up on the couch with housemates and local inauguration specials, such as Atlas Brew Works presidential new beers.
The solar-powered craft brewery has just rolled out their brand new Amtrak Joe Pilsner and Madam Veep's IPA ahead of the festivities, a limited edition cheers to the president-elect and vice president. The two celebratory beers are made in collaboration with OccasionAles.com. Orders are available for pickup at Atlas Half Street Brewery & Tap Room starting January 16.
Not a beer person? Whiskey and cocktail bar Jack Rose Dining Saloon in Adams Morgan is also lifting a glass to the occasion with a special Inauguration cocktail kit-for-two. Available to-go, the kit is being called Jack Rose's A Boozy New Deal and features a four-course cocktail tasting showcasing American-made spirits. Order via Tock now through the 20th.
Those ready to order some food in for the festivities can get lunch easily sorted with Immigrant Food's new bowl launching on the 14th called Madame VP's Heritage Bowl. An ode to the soon-to-be vice president Kamala Harris, the dish pays homage to both Harris' Jamaican and Indian cultural backgrounds with flavorful coconut-milk curried chicken, chickpeas, potatoes, pineapples, plantains, and a hint of spicy peppers served over turmeric rice and baby spinach.
Sandwich lovers can get their fix from Capitol Hill's Fight Club, which is also rolling out Inauguration food and drink specials from January 13-20 that will be available for patio service, carry out, and delivery. Brand new sandwich specials are inspired by President- and Vice President-elects' go-to sandwiches.
The Biden's Bobbie is loaded with turkey, sausage stuffing, potato mayo and cranberry sauce on a hoagie roll, and the PED of JOE is a chocolate-peanut butter ice cream sandwich that plays on Biden's love of the frozen confection. Harris, who schooled a fellow senator in the art of making a "mean tuna melt" last year, gets her own Fight Club version of the classic sandwich featuring tuna salad, spicy chips, American cheese, and a hard-boiled egg on country white bread.
