Data-Driven Systems
Information systems (IS) are the core components of companies and organisations; they enable data to be exchanged and communication to take place through a combination of liveware, hardware and software components.
Data breaches are happening constantly and the attack surface is expanding. It is vital that companies know how to protect themselves effectively against the increasing number of malware, ransomware and phishing threats.
Digital transformation and mobility, generated by the development of tele-working, are giving rise to new risks that expose companies across all sectors to new, increasingly frequent and aggressive threats. Data security is therefore becoming a major issue for companies, and cybersecurity is one of the most important challenges they now face.
In order to protect their facilities against malware, spyware or viruses, companies rely on experts to advise them, identify risks and vulnerabilities, help them strengthen their systems and defend themselves against cyber attacks.

What does cyber security mean?
Cyber security encompasses all security measures which may be taken in order to protect against attacks designed to jeopardise the proper functioning of the IT and communications systems used by individuals, businesses and administrations and the physical safety of facilities which are critical for national security.
What is a Sandbox?
A Sandbox is a concept generally used for software development. Its aim is to isolate an application or a piece of code which has not been tested or isn't recognised by the system in a closed and independent environment whilst replicating the characteristics of the operating system. A behavioural analysis of the code is carried out within the sandbox environment where it can be handled, studied or altered with no impact to the operating system.
What is a firewall?
A firewall filters data flows from one network to another. It protects network traffic and is capable of identifying and blocking unwanted traffic or traffic which does not comply with the user's predefined rules.
What is a WAF?
A WAF (Web Application Firewall) or application firewall protects web applications by filtering and monitoring HTTP traffic between a web application and the Internet. It protects web applications from attacks such as cross-site forgery, cross-site-scripting (XSS), file inclusion, and SQL injection, among others. A WAF is a protocol layer 7 defence in the OSI model.
What is a DDoS attack?
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt by hackers to overwhelm a host, server or web application by sending a flood of Internet traffic to saturate the system and create total service disruption.
What is the PCI DSS?
The PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is an information security standard which applies to the credit card industry. Created and administered by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council, the aim of the PCI DSS is to reduce credit card fraud. It is applicable to all organisations which handle credit card data. Validation of compliance is performed either by an external Qualified Security Assessor or by Self-Assessment Questionnaire for companies handling smaller volumes of credit card data.
What is a VPN (Virtual Private Network)?
A Virtual Private Network is an encrypted link between a user and a remote server, or between different private network facilities anywhere in the world using a WAN/Internet link to send and receive data.
Multiple tunnelling protocols can be used including SSL/TLs and IPSec.
What does IPSec mean?
IPSec (Internet Protocol Security) is a secure network protocol suite which safely authenticates and encrypts packets of data sent over an Internet Protocol network . It was designed as the Internet security protocol for both IPv4 and IPv6 and enables security features related to user authentication and data confidentiality.
IPSec is also used to establish VPN links as it can securely connect 2 IT systems using an existing network.
What does SSL mean?
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) is the standard communications protocol for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and the customer (PC, tablet, laptop etc). Created by the American company Netscape in the mid 90's, it is based on an encryption procedure using
a Private Key and a Public Key. These keys work together to create a secure channel of communication between a customer and a server downstream of an authentication step. The SSL encryption ensures that important data like user names, passwords etc sent by the user to the server remain private and integral.
What does TLS mean?
TLS (Transport Secure Layer) is a successor to the secure socket layer which uses the features of SSL 3.0 whilst improving certain functions and algorithms. It is more efficient than SSL because unlike SSL it supports pre-shared keys, secure remote passwords, elliptic curve cryptography and Kerberos.
TLS and SSL are not interoperable but TLS offers upward compatibility for older machines which are still using SSL.
The TLS protocol specifications take place on 2 levels:
The TLS Record Protocol which ensures that the connection is private
The TLS Handshake Protocol which allows authentication between the server and customer and the negotiation of cryptographic keys before the application protocol transmits any data.
What is strong authentication?
Strong authentication is any method of allowing a user to access resources (systems, networks, applications) by combining at least two factors of authentication. The aim is to address the weaknesses of single sign-on systems which rely on only one factor of authentication (usually a memory factor such as a password) in order to make authentication more difficult to withstand an attack.
Strong authentication therefore combines several authentication strategies including:
Something You Know – includes passwords and phrases
Something You Have – includes smart cards and token devices
Something You Are – includes fingerprints and retina scans
This information is then linked to an identity and access management solution which is in turn linked to the company's directory or a metadirectory which references all the base users and their rights.
What does SSO mean?
Single sign-on (SSO) is a session and user authentication service that permits a user to use one set of login credentials to access multiple applications. The user creates a password at the beginning of the session and can then access several IT applications without having to renter their login credentials for each application.
SSO eliminates the need for users to remember and manage several different sets of login credentials or passwords.
However, by grouping a user's authentication credentials, SSO increases the value and amount of data which may be breached in the event of the password being stolen.
A penetration test is a method of evaluating the security of an information system or a computer network.
It consists of testing the security of a computer network infrastructure by simulating an attack by a malicious user or even malware. The tester assumes the role of the potential attacker (hacker). The aim is to find exploitable flaws and vulnerabilities and to define an action plan to improve the security of the information system.
What are the different approaches to penetration testing?
Black Box Testing: involves breaking into a system without any information. The hacker discovers the environment and tries to figure out how to get into the target system as an outside attacker might do.
Grey Box Testing: the tester attempts to break into the information system with a limited amount of information. This makes it possible to verify the flaws in a system by posing either as a company employee with internal access, or as the starting point for a hacker who has succeeded in obtaining an employee's credentials
White Box Testing: This method offers the tester the possibility of detecting a maximum number of security flaws. By having access to all the desired information, the pentester is then able to inspect the system from top to bottom and reach a stage that might not have been reached with a different method. In this case the tester works closely with the company's technical teams.
What does SOC mean?
A SOC (Security Operations Centre) is a service with dedicated staff, facilities, systems and software dedicated to monitoring and handling all or part of the company's IT security operations. As a centralised unit, the SOC is designed to offer a broader global view of system-wide activities and to prevent, detect and handle security incidents efficiently.
What is Ransomware?
Ransomware is a type of malicious software, or malware received by email or contracted by visiting an infected website which is designed to deny access to a computer system or data by encrypting information such as customer files, accounting, invoices, quotes, designs, photographs, emails etc) until a ransom is paid by the victim. The victim then receives instructions about how to pay the ransom.
What is a Botnet?
Otherwise known as a network of robots or of zombie computers, a Botnet is a network of devices whose security has been breached and which are controlled by a hacker. The network is designed to allow the controller to send instructions to all or some of the Botnet machines and to operate them for his own purposes.
Phishing is a fraudulent attempt to steal a user's identity or to obtain information such as usernames, passwords and banking details. The hacker poses as a legitimate institution to lure users into enter sensitive data on a fake website. Typically the user receives an email asking them to visit the fake website.
What is a Vulnerability?
Vulnerability refers to a flaw or weakness in the design, development, installation or configuration of a system or the specifications in the way it is used, which leaves it open to attack either through malicious intent or through error. A vulnerability may be exploited by code and lead to an intrusion in the system.
What is a Digital Identity?
Digital identity is information used by the Internet to represent an individual. This identity is generated by the individual's online activity as they surf the web and communicate with companies and individuals leaving an active or passive permanent trail of data.
What is an ISP?
An ISP or Information security policy is a set of policies issued by an organisation to ensure a certain level of security. The ISP reflects the strategic approach of the organisation's management team (SME, IMP, industry, administration, State, Union of States etc) with regards to the information security policy. It is a fundamental component when defining the goals to be achieved and the means to achieve them.
The process for defining this policy is based on a risk analysis of the IT system security.
Once it has been validated by the organisation's IT security team, the ISP must be given to all those concerned by the IT system (users, operators, sub-contractors, providers etc.) It acts as a communication tool for the organisation and its ISP responsibilities, plus the resources available to prevent against risks.
What is ISO 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 is an information security standard for ISO and CEI systems. Part of the ISO/IEC 27000 family of standards, it is intended to certify organisations by specifying specific requirements for establishing an ISMS (information security management system), to minimise the risks of loss, theft or alteration and protect IT systems from intrusion and disaster.
What is a CISO?
The Chief Information Security Officer or CISO of an organisation (business, association or institution) is the executive responsible for ensuring the security, availability and integrity of the IT system and data.
The CISO is usually responsible for handling IT risk management for the company. They draw up action plans and recommendations for network and system security, physical security, informing users about security risks and establishing an action plan for business continuity in the event of an incident. The CISO must also help establish and implement a security policy with a focus on continuous improvement and performance assessment. Accordingly, they also oversee the creation of an ISP within the company.

Alternative Take to K-pop: How Balming Tiger Navigates the Genre
Event, Music
by Shelly Pires
This year's KCON 2019 NY Presented by Toyota saw no shortage of impressive idols both at the convention itself and on stage at Madison Square Garden. At the Javits Centre, attendees had a chance to run into their favorite groups on the convention floor, on the KCON stage, and of course at fan engagement opportunities.
But early on day one of KCON NY in a panel room deep in the Javits was another K-pop group that didn't have any idols at all. The panel's title proposed a question: "What's an Alternative K-Pop Group?" There to answer were San Yawn, Omega Sapien, and Sogumm of Balming Tiger.
Balming Tiger are a collective comprising Omega Sapien and Sogumm, producers San Yawn and Unsinkable, DJ Abyss and filmmaker Jan'qui. With the goal of representing society's younger generation, the group draw from various musical influences through their work while grounding their sound in hip-hop, which can be heard in their first mixtape Balming Tiger vol.1 : 虎媄30. The members produce individual work as well, showing the mutability of the group's sound and identity.
Given Balming Tiger's open and flexible approach to music, why would they choose to identify themselves as an alternative K-pop group? Isn't K-pop idol music by definition? Omega Sapien, the resident English spokesperson and "third-culture kid" of the trio, had a straightforward answer: "[K-pop] really just means popular music in Korea. And there's a lot of different kinds of popular music in Korea."
The statement might seem reductive of all the factors that make K-pop what it is, but to some degree, he isn't exactly wrong. On streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music, Korean indie, R&B, hip hop and more can be found in the K-pop category. And musically, K-pop might just be the perfect match for Balming Tiger's artistic philosophy.
"When you say 'K-pop,' music-wise there's not really a certain genre," Omega Sapien said. "You can't just pinpoint, 'Oh, K-pop is electronic music-based' or "oh, K-pop is ballad-based,' because K-pop is everything."
There are good reasons to embrace the K-pop label that are also practical. By purposefully using a label that's long carried a negative connotation in the Korean music sphere, the group are able to distinguish themselves as opposed to boxing themselves into one category.
"Hip hop music in Korea is very mono, like there's only one way to be a rapper," explained Omega Sapien. "And we're doing this weird crazy stuff, and a lot of people, even the big artists come up to us and be like, 'Wow, you guys are really inspiring, I really should, you know, do something different and be alternative about it.' So I think we're having a positive impact on the Korean music industry."
Just because Balming Tiger labels itself an alternative K-pop group now, it doesn't mean that label didn't take some getting used to. "It took a little convincing, but now we're all believing it, and this guy made it happen," Omega Sapien said of producer San Yawn, who helps craft Balming Tiger's musical direction.
"I only learned Balming Tiger was an alternative K-pop group as we were doing interviews," Sogumm shared, to the amusement of the other members and the audience. But thankfully she didn't have any problem going along with it.
"I thought it was refreshing. Lots of people who do hip-hop only think of K-pop's negatives or write it off as a genre. From a business perspective we think it's smart too, since when it comes to the fans, we can reach more people more easily."
K-pop's benefits notwithstanding, carrying the "K-pop group" label might not be so easy as simply deciding to be one. After all, it's hard to imagine a K-pop group officially releasing a track like "Pop the Tag," Omega Sapien's most recent single. In it, he embodies youth rebellion through violence, stealing, and "messing with old people."
And even if the content of the work itself is squeaky clean, there's still the question of artistic freedom. More and more, idols are participating in their craft in various ways, from producing, songwriting, to even creating the art that goes on their album covers. But by and large, most idols are expected to conform to the artistic vision created by their company.
Having the freedom to control their creative direction is crucial to Balming Tiger. Would they consider signing with a big company? "We've rejected some offers," shared San Yawn.
Despite how difficult it may be for a group like Balming Tiger to adopt the K-pop label, there's a lot to be gained from trying. After all, non-idol artists continue to have successful tours here, with hip hop artists like DPR and Sik-K and soloists like Heize coming stateside in the last year alone. That's a whole audience of fans who are gaining interest in the Korean music scene outside of K-pop– an audience Balming Tiger is ready to captivate.
When asked if the group is trying to reach out to K-pop fans or hip-hop fans, Omega Sapien answered, "We're trying to get them all. Because we were performing in a very underground French music festival a month ago, and now I'm at KCON."
And while crews like Balming Tiger can learn from the positives of K-pop, by broadening the definition of that label, it's possible K-pop might have something to gain from other genres as well. An example: it's a harsh reality that often, adhering to a strict set of beauty standards can be more important than the work itself in the pop sphere, and K-pop is no exception.
But when asked whether she feels pressured about her looks, Sogumm was able to answer in a hopeful manner: "Thankfully, through the process it's taken me to get here, people haven't looked at that side of things. Rather, they compliment my tracks, they compliment the lyrics I write, they compliment the activities I've done, so naturally I've gained confidence in what I have inside instead of what's on the outside." That's something every performer should be able to feel about their work, idol or not.
It may be too soon to tell whether Balming Tiger will succeed in their mission to expand the definition, but in the meantime they show an openness to continuing to bridge the divide between their spheres. Some dream idol collaborations?
"Jackson Wang," said Omega Sapien.
"Mark of NCT," quipped San Yawn. "I love him."
In short, they're open-minded. Omega Sapien summed up their criteria: "Anyone who's open like us and willing to collab, anytime."

Jerry Rice: Host of the Gold Jacket Club at the 2020 Super Bowl
By Evan Chronis | May 29, 2019 | 2020 Super Bowl
We are excited to have Pro Football Hall of Famer and San Francisco 49ers legend Jerry Rice join us at the 2020 Super Bowl as the host of the Gold Jacket Club.
Over the course of an unthinkable 20 year playing career, Rice put up astronomical numbers that cemented him as the most prolific offensive player ever to grace an NFL field.
As a three-time Super Bowl champion, Rice will be able to show off his rings as well as his gold jacket when he takes the stage as host of the Gold Jacket Club in Miami.
Jerry Rice Career Bio
Jerry Rice entered the 1985 NFL Draft with a lot of fanfare thanks to his prolific collegiate career at Mississippi Valley State. While not playing D-1 college ball, Rice made a name for himself by breaking almost every Division 1-AA receiving record possible. In his junior year, Rice led the NCAA with 102 receptions and 1,450 receiving yards, including a single-game record 24-catch game against Southern University. Then in his senior season, Rice broke his own records with 112 catches and 1,845 receiving yards, plus an astronomical 27 touchdown receptions.
Those two unthinkable college campaigns led to the San Francisco 49ers biting on Rice with the 16th pick in the 1985 NFL Draft (a selection that they traded up for).
In his rookie season, Rice caught 49 balls for 927 yards and three touchdowns, showing glimpses of his potential while not fully breaking out.
Then — in the 1986 season — the story of Rice's legend started to be written. He accumulated 86 receptions over the regular season for a league-leading 1,570 yards and 15 touchdowns, earning his first Pro Bowl and First-Team All-Pro honors.
Rice's encore performance to his breakout year was even better, as he set the NFL single-season receiving touchdown record with 22 scores. This record stood until 2007 when Randy Moss scored 23 receiving touchdowns in a single season.
He led the NFL in touchdown receptions an impressive six times and had 10 or more touchdowns in nine of his first eleven years in the league. Rice was also a six-time receiving yards leader and recorded over 1,000 receiving yards in a season a whopping 14 times.
Rice's personal success also bore fruit for the 49ers over his tenure. With Hall of Famer Joe Montana slinging the ball to him, Rice helped lead San Francisco to three Super Bowl victories and was named the MVP of the 1989 Super Bowl.
After 16 years with the 49ers, Rice joined the Oakland Raiders following the 2000 season. As an invaluable part of Oakland's offense, Rice and the Raiders made it to the 2003 Super Bowl, but fell to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
After 20 seasons in the NFL, the most of any wide receiver in history, Rice called it a career.
3-Time Super Bowl Champion (1989, '90, '95)

Q: HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode() does'nt return 301 (in java) I'm trying to capture HTTPs with 301 status code using java.net.* libs and not using sockets directly.
but the problem is that HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode() this method doesn't return 301 status code, instead when it encounters headers with 301 status code it automatically places a slash after the URL and try again and obviously it would return 200 status code, without any warning or notification just like a browser. what i want is to see 301 status code back from HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode().
here's my code:
domain.http_Con = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
int res = domain.http_Con.getResponseCode();
System.out.print(res);

i just want res 301 if it is a 301.
p.s:
 i want to detect directories by 301.

A: By default, HttpURLConnection will follow redirects (e.g. 301). Just disable it before connecting:
httpCon.setInstanceFollowRedirects(false);
httpCon.connect();
int res = httpCon.getResponseCode(); // should now return 301

USDA released their 2008 Prospective Plantings Report this week.
USDA released their 2008 Prospective Plantings Report this week. According to Dr. Gary Adams, Vice-President of Economics and Policy Analysis for the National Cotton Council, USDA's projected cotton acreage is down from 2007.
While the Southeast region overall may see some acreage reductions, Adams says Georgia is projecting an increase.
Adams says the USDA is calling for some significant declines in acreage for the Mid-South region relative to last year.
Adams says if you look across the cotton belt as a whole there's quite a bit of agreement in terms of where USDA's number ended up relative to the Council's number.

Q: What does C#'s Marshal.ReadInt32(IntPtr) mean in Delphi? I'm translating some C# code to Delphi, I understand that(msg = TMsg):
(int)msg.LParam

is just a cast(please correct me if I'm wrong), however the following boggles my mind:
Marshal.ReadInt32( (IntPtr)msg.WParam, 4 )

can someone please clarify this?

A: That just reads a 4 byte integer from a pointer. In managed .net code you don't have pointers (unless you use unsafe code) so the framework provides tools to help interop between the native and managed world. The documentation on MSDN for the .net libraries is comprehensive and, of course, describes Marshal.ReadInt32.
The extra complication here is that there is an additional offset of 4 bytes. In reality the pointer is probably pointing to a struct and this code is picking out the integer value at offset 4 of the struct. That's overwhelmingly the most likely explanation for the code being the way it is.
Now, a literal translation would be:
PInteger(msg.WParam+4)^

but you might alternatively write it in Delphi like this:
type
  TMyRecord = record
    i1: Integer;
    i2: Integer;
  end;
  PMyrecord = ^TMyRecord;
....
value := PMyRecord(msg.WParam)^.i2;

If you know which message this WParam relates to then you will also know what the true record is to use here. And so you would not need to define a dedicated record since Windows.pas would already do so.

Librado Rivera ( à Rayón, San Luis Potosí -  à Mexico) était un homme politique, journaliste et anarchiste mexicain, membre du Parti libéral mexicain (Partido Liberal Mexicano, PLM).

Militant politique, journaliste et professeur diplômé de l'École Normale de San Luis Potosí, Librado Rivera a collaboré à la presse d'opposition à la dictature de Porfirio Díaz, comme El Hijo del Ahuizote, El Demófilo ou encore Regeneración. Il a été partisan des idées anarchistes de Pierre Kropotkine, Errico Malatesta et Jean Grave, entre autres.

Membre du Club Libéral Benito Juárez en 1900, Librado Rivera a participé en tant que délégué au Congrès Libéral de 1901 à San Luis Potosí organisé par le Club Libéral Ponciano Arriaga, c'est à cette occasion qu'il fait la connaissance de Ricardo Flores Magón. En 1902, il est arrêté pour la première fois. Libéré, Librado se rend à Mexico où il fait partie de la protestation du 5 février 1903 dans le bureau de Hijo del Ahuizote, l'inscription « La Constitution est morte... » a pu y avoir été pensée par Rivera.

En 1905, depuis l'exil à Saint Louis, Missouri, Librado Rivera, de concert avec les frères Ricardo et Enrique Flores Magón, joue un rôle fondamental dans l'orientation anarchiste que prend la Junte organisatrice qui se chargeait de préparer la fondation du Parti Libéral Mexicain (PLM), officialisé le 1 juillet 1906.

En 1907, après les grèves de Cananea et Rio Blanco, au cours desquelles les ouvriers ont été influencés et conseillés par des membres du PLM, Porfirio Díaz ordonne l'arrestation des frères Flores Magón, d'Antonio I. Villarreal et Librado Rivera.

Lorsqu'en 1911, Villarreal et Juan Sarabia se séparent de la Junte Organisatrice, Rivera reste fidèle à l'orientation du PLM avec Ricardo et Enrique Flores Magón. Pour marquer les différences entre les deux groupes de libéraux, un nouveau Manifeste de la Junte du PLM au peuple mexicain est publié le 23 septembre 1911 par Regeneración. Dans celui-ci, le PLM fait appel aux Mexicains pour lutter contre l'État, le Capital et le clergé, identifiant ces forces comme les pouvoirs qui oppriment la population. Sans que ces notions soient explicitement invoquées, le Parti entérine ainsi officiellement son orientation communiste-anarchiste.

Le 16 mars 1918, avec Ricardo Flores Magón, Librado Rivera a publié dans les colonnes de Regeneración (édité alors à Los Angeles, en Californie) un manifeste adressé aux anarchistes du monde entier. La circulation de ce manifeste a motivé le gouvernement américain à les incarcérer tous deux dans la prison de Leavenworth, Kansas, accusés de saboter l'effort de guerre des États-Unis, qui participaient alors à la Première Guerre mondiale.

Rivera est libéré en 1923 et aussitôt déporté au Mexique. Il lui est alors offert un siège de député, de sénateur et même une présidence à San Luis Potosí, mais il a rejeté toutes ces propositions.

Rivera continue de travailler comme journaliste et de critiquer le gouvernement post révolutionnaire de  Plutarque Elías Calles, avec des publications comme Sagitario, édité de 1922 à 1927 par le groupe anarchiste Los Hermanos Rojos (Les Frères Rouges), ¡Avante! (1927-1930) et ¡Paso! (1931-1932). Dans ses articles et dans le livre Los Mártires de Texas (Les Martyrs du Texas), Rivera plaide pour la libération des magonistes encore détenus aux États-Unis, il lutte aussi pour éviter l'exécution de Sacco et Vanzetti. Librado Rivera cherche aussi à diffuser la pensée et les écrits de Ricardo Flores Magón et Práxedis G. Guerrero. En avril 1927, il est arrêté à Tampico (Tamaulipas) accusé d'insulte au président, d'avoir fait l'apologie publique de l'anarchisme et d'avoir inciter le peuple à l'anarchie.

Librado Rivera est mort dans la Ville de Mexico le 1er mars 1932, après avoir contracté le tétanos dans un accident automobile.

I like how they make it seem like people leave data on old computers and drives on accident. If you are like me, I leave naked pictures on all the stuff I sell just for funsies. Consider it bonus content.
A new study (PDF), conducted by the Blancco Technology Group, finds that a staggering amount of personal and confidential information is retrievable from used, resold, or refurbished devices that have supposedly been wiped. Of the 200 devices they tested, 78% آ— more than three-quarters آ— had some kind of residual data on them that should not have been there.

The creator of the Fat Loss Factor is Dr. Charles D.C, a licensed chiropractic physician and nutritionist, as well as a certified wellness practitioner. The Fat Loss Factor is a diet and exercise weight loss program designed specifically for overweight people who are struggling with their weight.
The weight loss program focuses on ridding the body of toxins while activating the body's natural fat burning abilities. The Fat Loss Factor also focuses on eliminating bad habits as the mind is re-trained to adopt new and healthier habits.
The Fat Loss Factor is a 12 week online program combining diet and exercise. The program also integrates supportive elements such as stress self motivation and self management.
Therefore, you can tailor the program to fit your needs. You can find out more about how the program can be tailored to your own needs here.
Dr. Charles D.C. has converted thousands into believers. There are many reviewers who are proud and more than willing to showcase their before and after photos, testament to the fact that the Fat Loss Factor works.
Most reviewers agree that the success of the program is directly correlated to the work that you put in. There is no magic pill. And you will not see spectacular results if you do the minimum. To put it plainly, if your heart and soul is not in it neither will your body.
Fat Loss Factor alumni were mixed about which part was more difficult. Each posed its own challenges but the great thing about the program is that nothing is left to the unknown and there is support every step of the way.
Reviewers loved the fact that the onetime payment included lifetime updates, so there will always be access to new developments. This will ensure that you are always kept abreast on any new information that will help sustain your weight loss.
The program is easy to follow and reviewers liked its practicality. There is no drastic interruption in their daily lives, which made it easier to stick with the program. However, the Fat Loss Factor does present a drastic shift in the food you consume. Reviewers did complain that these foods cost much more than their usual fare, so do expect some rise in your food bill.
Most interesting, was that several reviewers admitted to failing the first time. Some cited that they were simply not mentally prepared. However, Dr. D.C. recommends not giving up and recommencing the program. These reviewers did just that and were very successful the second time around.
Losing weight is not easy and the Fat Loss Factor does not promise that it is. Actually, it takes effort and commitment but the results should be worth it.
Whether you decide the Fat Loss Factor is for you or not, regardless of which diet you embark on, there will always be the temptation to fall off the wagon. Here are some general tips on how to make sure you stick to your diet and don't give up.
Motivate yourself. Perhaps you have a photo of yourself a few years ago, when you were at a weight you were happy with, or perhaps you've never been your ideal weight but admire someone elses physique. Pin a photo by your desk, on the fridge or save it as your screensaver to keep reminding you why you're working so hard.
Reward yourself. It's important to set yourself goals and rewards so you feel like you're getting something back. Treat yourself to a new wardrobe when you reach your size goal, book a holiday to show off your figure in a bikini or arrange a get together with friends and family where you can showcase the new you.
Find a diet buddy. There will be times that you feel weak and the unhealthy cravings kick in. Or maybe you're having a bad day and can't face that gym class. Going through the highs and the lows with someone else is essential for when you need support or an injection of morale. Of course it's important to have your own willpower, but having someone who knows what your going through is a huge help and you can spur each other on to achieve your goals.
The Fat Loss Factor can only be purchased directly from its official website (buying it here will entitle you to the 60-day money back guarantee). There is only a onetime fee, which includes your choice of 4 bonus books.

Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer - Flaming Fields
A few days ago I shared a pretty pink called Clear My View which is part of the Room with a View Collection from Fall 2016.
Flaming Fields is described as a "wine red with blue to gold to green shifting glass flecks." This polish has red wine written all over it and it is so different in each lighting situation. I think I captured that in these pictures pretty well.
I am wearing 2 coats plus top coat. I really love this one. It's very unique in my collection.
You can purchase Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer here.
