Darien police have announced that police officers have been trained in using naloxone, a medicine that can dramatically turn around some heroin overdoses for temporary periods (although the patient will need to get to a hospital for further treatment).
A Darien EMS volunteer recently described how Darien EMS-Post 53 used naloxone (specifically the “Narcan” brand of naloxone) on a patient twice within a few days. What follows is the police announcement and an excerpt from a recent Darien.com article about the use of the drug, which was described at the Nov. 5 “StraightTalk” panel discussion.
Here’s the Darien Police Department announcement:
Over the past week, officers from the Darien Police Department were trained in the use of naloxone (“Narcan”).
Naloxone is an opioid (narcotic) antagonist that may reverse central nervous system and respiratory depression secondary to an overdose of opioids such as heroin.
This training was conducted by the Darien Emergency Medical Services Training Director, Antonia Basu.
In the near future, all Darien Police patrol vehicles will be equipped with a Narcan “kit”. The kit contains two intra-nasal doses of Narcan.
In the event that officers are dispatched to the scene of a possible opioid overdose, officers will have the equipment and training to help revive an overdose victim.
Here’s the description of how Narcan was recently used when one person overdosed twice within a few days:
“He did have a pulse, though he was blue around the mouth and floppy as a rag doll,” she said. “I administered Narcan up his nose, once in each nostril, and — probably in 30 seconds, although it seemed like infinity — he woke up and he was as coherent when he awakened, nearly, as I am now. He’s fortunate.”
Two nights later, she went on an ambulance call […] for an overdose and saw the same victim.
“My co-worker had already administered the Narcan. The patient woke up, sat up on the gurney, looked me dead in the eye and remembered me from two days before, and he said, ‘Thank-you’ and ‘I’m sorry,’ and I knew he meant both. I said, ‘Do you want to live?’ and he said ‘Yes,’ and I believe him.”

Powerful Skygofree Spyware Was Already Reported and Analyzed In 2017
The Skygofree spyware analyzed by Kaspersky today was first spotted by the researcher Lukas Stefanko and the first analysis was published last year by the experts of CSE Cybsec ZLab.
The Skygofree spyware
A few days ago, malware researchers at Kaspersky Lab had disclosed the discovery of a new strain of mobile malware; it is powerful Android spyware dubbed Skygofree.
Become a certified reverse engineer!
Skygofree is Android spyware that could be used to gain full control of infected devices remotely, the features it implements make this threat very useful in targeted attacks.
The analysis conducted by Kaspersky revealed that Skygofree was used against many users for the past four years, most of them in Italy.
It is important to clarify that the name Skygofree is not linked to Sky Go, which is the subsidiary of Sky and does not affect its services.
The malware has been in the wild at least since 2014, and it was improved several times over the years.
"At the beginning of October 2017, we discovered new Android spyware with several features previously unseen in the wild. In the course of further research, we found a number of related samples that point to a long-term development process. We believe the initial versions of this malware were created at least three years ago – at the end of 2014," reads the analysis published by Kaspersky.
"Since then, the implant's functionality has been improving and remarkable new features implemented, such as the ability to record audio surroundings via the microphone when an infected device is in a specified location; the stealing of WhatsApp messages via Accessibility Services; and the ability to connect an infected device to Wi-Fi networks controlled by cybercriminals."
Is this the first time that malware researchers have discovered this threat?
The answer is negative, the malware was first observed by the security researcher at ESET Lukas Stefanko, and a first detailed analysis of the Skygofree spyware was published by the experts at the CSE Cybsec ZLab.
The researchers at the ZLab published in November a report titled "Malware Analysis Report: Fake 3MobileUpdater" after obtained a sample of the malware, immediately emerged that the malicious code was developed for surveillance purposes by an Italian firm, likely operating for law enforcement.
According to Kaspersky, Skygofree has being distributed through fake web pages mimicking leading mobile network operators. The analysis of the domains used in the attack revealed they were registered since 2015.
The most recently observed domain was registered on October 31, 2017, according to Kaspersky telemetry data, the malicious code was used against several individuals, the victims were exclusively in Italy.
The team of researchers at CSE CybSec ZLab analyzed in November a fake 3 Mobile Updater that was used pose itself as a legitimate application of the Italian Telco company, TRE Italia.
"The most classic and efficient method used to lure the users is to believe that the application does something good. This is just what 3 Mobile Updater does. In fact, this malicious Android application looks like a legitimate app used to retrieve mobile system update, and it improperly uses the logo of the notorious Italian Telco company, TRE Italia, in order to trick victims into trusting it," reads the report published by CSE CybSec.
Figure 1 - 3 Mobile Updater analyzed by CSECybsec in 2016
The analysis conducted by Kaspersky suggests the involvement of an Italian firm due to the presence in the code of strings in Italian.
"As can be seen from the comparison, there are similar strings and also a unique comment in Italian, so it looks like the attackers created this exploit payload based on android-rooting-tools project source code," states Kaspersky.
The CSE CybSec researchers shared the same conclusion, below a portion of the code analyzed by the members of the ZLab.
"Moreover, both in the logcat messages and in the code, the malware writers used the Italian language. So, we can say with high confidence that this malicious app has been written by an Italian firm that intended to target users of the Italian telco company Tre," CSE wrote in the analysis.
The artifacts analyzed by Kaspersky in the malware code and information gathered on the control infrastructure suggest the developer of the Skygofree malware is an Italian IT company that works for surveillance solutions.
Kaspersky Lab has not confirmed the name of the Italian company behind this spyware, we at the CSE CybSec ZLab opted for the same decision in October due to the possible involvement of law enforcement or intelligence Agencies.
Unfortunately, the OPsec implemented by the firm is very poor. The name of the company is present in multiple references to the code, and the domains used as C&C servers were registered by the Italian tech firm.
"Although the security firm has not confirmed the name of the Italian company behind this spyware, it found multiple references to Rome-based technology company 'Negg' in the spyware's code. Negg is also specialized in developing and trading legal hacking tools," states the blog post published by THN.
Once installed, Skygofree hides its icon and starts background services to conceal its malicious actions from the victim, one interesting feature implemented by the malicious code prevents its services from being killed.
"Interestingly, a self-protection feature was implemented in almost every service. Since in Android 8.0 (SDK API 26) the system is able to kill idle services, this code raises a fake update notification to prevent it," continues Kaspersky.
Kaspersky published an interesting analysis of the Skygofree spyware, according to the firm the malicious code was enhanced since October implementing a sophisticated multi-stage attack and using a reverse shell payload.
The malicious code includes multiple exploits to escalate privileges for root access used by attackers to execute sophisticated payloads, including a shellcode used to spy on popular applications such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Line, and Viber.
The same spying abilities were implemented in the app analyzed at the CSE CybSec.
"The capabilities of this malicious app are enormous and include the information gathering from various sources, including
the most popular social apps, including Whatsapp, Telegram, Skype, Instagram, Snapchat. It is able to steal a picture from the gallery, SMS and calls registry apps. All this data is first stored in a local database, created by the malicious app, and later it is sent to the C2C," reads the preliminary analysis published on SecurityAffairs.
"There are multiple, exceptional capabilities: usage of multiple exploits for gaining root privileges, a complex payload structure, [and] never-before-seen surveillance features," the researchers said.
Skygofree implements the main surveillance features; it can take pictures and videos remotely, monitor SMSs, call records and calendar events, of course, it also able to gather target' location and access any information stored on the mobile.
Skygofree also can record audio via the microphone, an interesting feature implemented by the spyware allows the attacker to force the victim's device to connect to compromised Wi-Fi networks it controls to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks.
Kaspersky also found a variant of Skygofree targeting Windows users, a circumstance that suggests the Italian firm is also targeting machines running Windows OS.
The best way to prevent yourself from being a victim is to avoid downloading apps via third-party websites, app stores or links provided in SMS messages or emails.
The journalist Thomas-Fox from Forbes magazine wrote an interesting article about Skygofree some hours after the publishing of the Kaspersky report. Thomas searched for archived versions of the website used by the Italian firm Negg and discovered that the company was looking for software engineers with experience in Android and iOS development.
It was requested to the candidates the "knowledge of the techniques of dynamic and static analysis of malware."
"That chimed with the Kaspersky research, which found only a few infections, all within Italy. The Russian antivirus provider concluded the software, which it dubbed Skygofree, was one of the most powerful seen aimed at Android operating systems," wrote Thomas-Fox.
"The surveillance tool was being delivered via a handful of websites, including fake network update pages from different telecoms giants, including Three and Vodafone, all registered in 2015. "
I asked my colleague Dr. Antonio Pirozzi, Director of the CSE CybSec ZLab, to compare the stubs of code shared by Kaspersky with the ones related to the code we analyzed back in November.
This is what has emerged from the comparison.
- These classes are identical:
- The spyware CSE Cybsec analyzed did not contain the Android exploits found by Kaspersky, as well as the reverse shell PRISM and the busy box.
- However, also the class used for parsing are similar;
Moreover, the DNS used are the same;
The analysis published by Kaspersky included Indicators of Compromise, including the URL of the C&C (url[.] plus) which was the same of the Spyware analyzed by CSE CybSec.
"Definitely we have a lot of evidences inside the spy tool that link the threat to the Italian firm. The Italian company's name is everywhere in the code, and the whois records of the C&C are registered by the same firm. This lets me think that someone was protecting these hackers. We are uncovering a Pandora Vase," added Dr. Antonio Pirozzi.
Many parts of the code are identical; both source code includes strings in Italian and the reference to the Italian firm are the same. The version analyzed by Kaspersky is a new release of the malware first analyzed by CSE CybSec ZLab.
Kaspersky also shared the URL from which the spyware is downloaded, and one of them was related to the version we analyzed (Fake 3 mobile updater).
The two version of the malware shared numerous classes, C&C server, Whois records and many other info. The sample analyzed by CSE was probably still under development.
The discovery of the tool and the simplicity in attributing it to a specific actor is disconcerting and raises serious questions about the way surveillance activity must be conducted. For an intelligence agency was not complicated to identify the surveillance activity conducted using software like Skygofree and variously interfere with the operation.

10 Of The Largest Robberies In History
Many of us fantasize about a life with a near-endless supply of money. Be it robbing a bank, becoming a con-man or stealing valuable goods, there won’t be many people who can say that they’ve never thought about it. Thinking about it is one thing, but actually going through with the deed is another. Here we’ve compiled a list of the ten largest robberies to go down in history. While they aren’t all from people robbing banks, the amount of money they’ve stole is astonishing. Let’s just hope reading through this won’t give you any stupid ideas, because let’s face it, you won’t have the skills necessary to pull off a daring robbery.
Harry Winston, Paris, France
Harry Winston, a renowned jewelry store, was robbed on 5th December, 2008. Four armed men entered the store, forcing staff to loot the storage area while they cleaned out the display cases. These individuals made off with an estimated $108 million.
No shots were fired during the robbery, however 25 individuals were arrested with ties with the crime.
Antwerp World Diamond Center, Belgium
On the weekend spanning February 15th to February 16th, 2003, the Antwerp Diamond Center was robbed of over $100 million in gems. The mastermind behind the heist, Leonardo Notarbartolo, had planned the robbery for over two years. Notarbartolo rented an office in the diamond center, and posed as an Italian diamond merchant. He led a team of five individuals who carried out the heist.
Notarbartolo, was subsequently arrested when authorities found DNA evidence linking him to the crime scene and footage from security cameras. Notarbartolo was tried and jailed for ten years, however he has since been released on parole. The diamonds remain unrecovered.


Home Improvement : Holes, Cracks in Plastic Waterlines Easy to Repair
I get my water from a well, and it must be fairly acidic. Over the years it has corroded and eaten away at the metal pipes and fittings in my plumbing system with an insatiable appetite. Whenever an old section goes bad, I replace it with plastic. And wherever the plastic goes in, corrosion has ceased. Plastic is immune to this problem.
It is not, however, immune to other common causes of leaks, such as errant nails driven during remodeling or cracks due to freezing. Even so, when these leaks do occur in plastic, they’re relatively simple to fix.
NAIL HOLES: If you accidentally drive a nail through a wall and into a run of plastic pipe, the easiest way to patch the damage is with a coupling. This is a tubular connector that fits over the ends of two pipes to fasten them together.
Saw the pipe in half, right through the hole. If there is enough give in the run of the pipe, you can then cement it back together, using an ordinary coupling in the usual way.
Apply solvent cement to the ends of the pipe on both sides of the cut. Slip the coupling onto one piece of pipe until it bottoms out on the stop molded at the midpoint of the coupling. Then quickly pull the other piece of pipe back so you can slip it into the other end of the coupling. Press it into the coupling until it too bottoms out, give the coupling a quarter turn to distribute the cement and let set.
This technique will usually work when you are dealing with the relatively small pipes used in your plumbing’s supply system. When you get a hole in the heavier pipes of your drainage system, however, it’s often difficult to maneuver the two pieces of pipe far enough apart to get the second end into the coupling.
In this case, try a slip coupling. This is just like an ordinary coupling but it has no stop or shoulder molded inside. To use a slip coupling, slip it onto one of the ends of the cut pipe, and slide it back several inches away from the cut so you can apply a liberal coat of cement to the pipe on both sides of the cut (see sketch). Then slide the coupling back up so it is centered evenly over the cut. Give it a twist and let set.
Not all pipe makers offer slip couplings. If you can’t find one, get an ordinary coupling and grind away the stop inside, as shown.
CRACKS: They are usually too long to repair with a single coupling. One solution is to cut away the damaged section, then replace it with a short length of pipe fitted with couplings at both ends. A second solution is to make a patch with a piece of plastic pipe one size larger than the pipe that’s cracked.
If, for example, a 1/2-inch line cracks, you can repair it with a length of 3/4-inch pipe. Just cut a piece of the larger pipe long enough to lap past the damage a few inches in both directions. Then take a saw and split this piece of pipe in half lengthwise.
Next, apply a heavy coat of cement to both the outside of the damaged pipe and to the insides of the repair pieces. Place the two halves of the repair pipe over the damage, orienting the seams in the patch so they do not line up with the crack in the pipe.
Finally, squeeze the patch tightly in place with two or three hose clamps, or by twisting a few lengths of heavy wire around the repair with pliers.

The seasons are changing up here... Not only are the leaves turning, the telescope's developing a whole new attitude as well!
Unfortunately, huge thunderclouds threatened at sunset & the night looked sure to be a write-off.
Amazingly though, the clouds dumped their rain & the sky completely cleared up around midnight so SALT was opened up & the primary mirror aligned.
The humidity remained above 80% but (against all odds!), the DIMM consistently measured sub-arcsecond seeing - the best reading we saw was 0.66"! :) A full frame RSS image was quickly taken to check the position of the RSS guide probe.
The probe was found to be well represented by the blue graphic, seen here on the SALTICAM frame. But the sky was so good, Janus kindy declined doing further guiding tests in favour of getting some pretty pictures!
The average FWHM of ~150 stars all over the RSS field was 0.98" for an open cluster (NGC 4052) that we looked at.
Duty SALT Astronomer Paul had his hands full scrambling to get images on both instruments through multiple filters before the dew-point & humidity limits shut us down for the rest of the night.
Great stuff though - uniform, sub-arcsec FWHM over the full field of view :)
The SALTICAM images were run through the IQ pipeline & yielded the following impressive results! These plots are for the I-band data.
Thanks to Janus for the 4 control room photos - I'd left my camera down in my room as I came up to the telescope when there seemed no chance at all of going on-sky!

The obstetrician who was caring for Marie Downey, and who found her dead in her hospital room with her newborn trapped beneath her, said she regrets not writing to her patient’s treating neurologist to discuss her epilepsy during her pregnancy.
Professor Keelin O’Donoghue, a consultant obstetrician at Cork University Maternity Hospital (CUMH), described it as an oversight on her part that she now sincerely regrets.
She made her comments during several hours of questioning today by the Downey family’s legal representative, Doireann O’Mahony, junior counsel, on the second day of the joint inquest into the deaths of Ms Downey, 36, from Knockanevin near Kildorrery in North Cork, on March 25, 2019, and her newborn baby, Darragh, the following day, both at CUMH.
Ms Downey’s husband, Kieran, previously told the inquest that he believes his wife and son would still be alive if guidelines on the care of pregnant women with epilepsy were followed, and if there was better communication between her treating doctors, and other medical staff.
Prof O’Donoghue told Cork City Coroner Philip Comyn that she had cared for Ms Downey as a private patient during her two previous pregnancies in 2014 and 2016.
She said she was aware of Ms Downey’s history of epilepsy, and was aware at her booking appointment early in her third pregnancy, with Darragh, in mid-2018, that she had an appointment to see her neurologist, Dr Peter Kinirons, at the Bon Secours Hospital the following January — an appointment Ms Downey subsequently postponed for six months because of a close relative's serious illness.
But she told the inquest that she made an assumption that Dr Kinirons knew his patient was pregnant, and she did not write to him to inform him that she was caring for his patient through the third pregnancy.
“It was an oversight on my part not writing to Mr Kinirons", said Prof O’Donoghue.
“I made assumptions that she was continuing with the same pathway of care. I made assumptions that would all continue, and I should have written to him.”
She said she was shocked later to discover that Dr Kinirons had not been aware of Ms Downey’s pregnancy.
Prof O’Donoghue also said how, during Ms Downey’s first pregnancy, she consulted with Cork University Hospital’s (CUH) in-house neurology experts after Ms Downey suffered a seizure at 30 weeks — when she was not taking her anticonvulsant medication, Lamictal, at the time.
CUH’s neurology team referred Ms Downey back to her own neurologist, following which she resumed taking her medication, and remained on it during her next two pregnancies.
Earlier, the inquest heard distressing evidence about how Darragh suffered a massive and irreversible brain injury after his mother suffered an epileptic seizure, possibly while breastfeeding, and was found partially out of her bed with her baby trapped on the floor underneath her.
The inquest was told that Darragh was delivered at CUMH at 4.18pm on Friday, March 22, 2019, following an uncomplicated pregnancy, and was a healthy baby boy.
While Ms Downey suffered a significant postpartum haemorrhage, she recovered and spent the weekend in a private single-bed room in CUMH’s postnatal ward.
The alarm was raised around 8am on Monday, March 25, 2019, when Ms Downey was found partially out of her bed, in a contorted position with her lower legs still on the bed, with Darragh trapped under her torso.
The inquest was told that Ms Downey’s right breast was exposed and doctors believed that she may have been breastfeeding when she suffered a sudden onset seizure.
In her statement, Prof O’Donoghue said she found Ms Downey half out of the bed, with her legs still on the bed and her upper body on the floor.
“She was in an unnatural position, with her neck twisted up and to the left, facing the door, up against the corner of the bathroom door and wall,” she said.
“Her face was very suffused and purple in colour, her neck and body were pale, and her legs were pale and white.
She said she raised the alarm and several doctors and midwives rushed to the room.
They rechecked for a pulse and confirmed there was none, and they agreed that all emergency medical response should now focus on Darragh, who was recovered “cold and unresponsive” from under his mother’s body.
In her statement, which was read into the record, Dr Hannah Glynn, a junior obstetrics registrar, said as she rushed towards Ms Downey’s room, she passed midwives running towards the neonatal nursery resuscitation room, carrying baby Darragh, and heard one of them say: "I think this baby is gone, and the mother is too".
Prof O’Donoghue pronounced Ms Downey dead at 8.20am.
Consultant neonatologist, Dr Brian Murphy, told the inquest how neonatal doctors began intensive resuscitation efforts on Darragh, including breathing supports, intubation, administration of adrenaline and fluids, and cardiac compressions.
He said a heartbeat was first detected 20 minutes into the resuscitation, but it was just 60 beats per minute — a very low rate — followed by the detection of a weak pulse.
He said Darragh’s heart rate increased to about 136 beats per minute a few minutes later, and he was transferred to the neonatal intensive care unit.
But he said Darragh did not respond to stimuli, there was no spontaneous movement, there was minimal electrical activity in the brain, and at no stage did medical staff see any sustained respiratory effort.
Dr Murphy said by the Tuesday morning, March 26, it was clear that Darragh had been starved of oxygen while trapped under his mother’s body, and had suffered a severe and irreversible brain injury.
He said ongoing intensive care support was futile, and not in Darragh’s best interests and, following consultation with medical colleagues and the Downey family that morning, a decision was taken to withdraw intensive care supports.
“From the moment I met him that morning, I knew the prognosis was bleak,” said Dr Murphy.
Darragh was brought in a cot to a family room to be with his father and brothers before intensive care support was withdrawn at 4.27pm. Dr Murphy pronounced death at 5pm.
An independent review into the deaths has already found that the care delivered to Ms Downey during her pregnancy and in the postpartum period was not in line with HSE guidelines on the ‘management of women with epilepsy'.
All but its 11 recommendations have been ruled inadmissible by the coroner.
CUMH has previously apologised to the Downey family for the deaths of Ms Downey and Darragh while in its care.
The inquest, which has run late into the evening over the last two days, is set to continue before a jury of four men and three women again tomorrow.

Our Lady first appeared to Bernadette in 1858, and announced herself as “The Immaculate Conception”, near the Grotto of Massabielle. At the first two apparitions, little Bernadette prayed the Rosary with Our Lady and left without any exchange of words. During the following apparitions, Our Lady emphasized God’s love for us, penance and the necessity of performing acts of penance for sinners. Throughout your time in Lourdes, you will have the opportunity to attend Mass at the Grotto of where Our Lady appeared to Bernadette; watch a video presentation that explains, in detail, the story of Lourdes; drink water from the miraculous spring that has healed many; and submerge yourself in the healing baths.

On a bit of a roll at the moment! I've sold my long short story "The Mid-Life of David K" to Nil Desperandum, a website which records podcast versions of stories of varying length. The stories are free to listen to, with the whole thing being funded by listener donations. At 12,500 words this is by some distance the longest story I've had accepted, so I'm rather excited about it. It'll be a new experience to hear one of my stories being read out as well! When word comes from sunny California about when all this will be happening, I'll update further...
The editors at the Muscle and Blood Literary Journal have nominated my story "The German" for the Pushcart Prize Best of the Small Presses anthology. I know only what the Pushcart Prize website tells me, but they claim it is "the most honored literary project in America", and who am I to argue when what they claim sounds cool. Writers including Raymond Carver and John Irving had work published in the annual anthology early in their careers. This is only the start of the process, with small presses all over the US nominating stories they think worthy of inclusion, but nonetheless it's great to be put forward.

The folks at the marvellously-named Big Bad Media recently decided to put together a collection of 50 stories, all proceeds from which will go to the Red Cross Pakistan Floods Appeal. My short story "The Sea" has been accepted for the aptly named "50 Stories for Pakistan" collection, to be published sometime in the next couple of months. These guys have good form - they put together a similar collection for Haiti that raised over £4,000. As it's for charity, I'll plug this fairly shamelessly when it comes out and not have to feel bad about it, so beware. The collection has a 'no violence, death or destruction' rule, which meant I had to find something new to write about, and also that it may even be a jolly affair.
As a sidebar, this was my 12th acceptance for the year, meaning I've hit my target for 2010, as set way back in January when the world was but young. Rumours that I'll be taking the rest of year off to contemplate all this over cocktails are sadly unfounded.

My short story "The German" has been published electronically by Diamond Point Press in the first volume of their Muscle and Blood Journal. The print version has been delayed, and is now expected to be published at the end of September or early October.

The Best Car Seat Covers for Front Seats
When it comes to aftermarket car seat covers, FH Group Ultra Comfort Leatherette Front Seat Cushions are probably as close to new upholstery as you can get. Unlike most covers that can get displaced when you get in your car, these use a top-mounted zipper and elastic sides to fit securely around your car’s bucket seats. Separate pieces for the backrest and seat cushion create a tight, factory look. They’re easy to install, and the top zipper accommodates removable headrests. Matching headrest covers are included, for a consistent look that maintains their adjustable functionality. On the inside of each faux leather cover is a non-slip silicone layer that holds them securely to your seat. These seat covers are compatible with side airbags, but they cannot be used on seats without removable headrests. All this comes at a price, and these are the most expensive covers on our list.
We’re big fans of products that seem more expensive than they are, and that’s where the Black Panther Car Seat Covers shine. These durable covers not only protect your seats from damage, their quilted pattern and fitted shape help them blend into your car’s interior style. The front uses a breathable, padded fabric to keep you cool, while the back uses a non-slip material to hold it in place. A combination of fasteners firmly attach this cover to your seat. In front of the seat portion, there are two small pockets that add a little bit of handy storage space to your car; it’s perfect for your phone. This option does not cover side bolstering — it only covers the middle portion of your seat — and it is compatible with side airbags. Six colors are available.
For seat covers that add a new level of luxury to your car, check out the SNAILAX Massage Car Seat Cushion. Easy-to-use elastic straps and slip-resistant backing hold the cover in place. The universal shape is designed to work with any bucket front seat. Six vibration motors, located in the upper back, shoulders, lower back, and thighs, provide an in-car massage for the most relaxing commute you’ve ever had. Three heating pads add relaxing warmth, and automatically turn off to prevent overheating. A handheld controller lets you choose from five massage modes, four massage regions, four intensity levels, high or low heat, and three timers. This cover plugs into a standard 12-volt outlet. Many customers purchase two of these seat covers and a 12-volt splitter to equip both front seats.
Fortunately, options like the Bell Automotive Baja Blanket Bucket Seat Cover make protecting your car’s interior affordable. At a fraction of the cost of other seat covers on this list, this one uses elastic side material for a snug fit, and soft saddle blanket material on the front for comfort and durability. While this car seat cover is considered universal, you should make sure that your seat backs fit within 31 inches tall and 19.75 inches wide, and your seat bottom fits within 19 inches wide and 21 inches long. The wraparound design is compatible with side airbags. Covers are sold individually, but matching covers are also available for back seats and even steering wheels. Durability won’t be as high as the alternatives on this list and the laid-back, casual style won’t suit every vehicle. But we love the price point.

The Northern Fleet Commander Vice-Admiral Nikolai Yevmenov confirmed the two Northern Fleet’s Borei-class nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines (SSBN) —Yuri Dolgoruky and Vladimir Monomakh— have been assigned to the Russian Navy’s permanent readiness force. The third Borei-class SSBN, Aleksandr Nevsky, is in active service with the Pacific Fleet.
“As you know, the Northern Fleet was the first to commission Borei class strategic submarines. The vessels of this class have been assigned to the permanent readiness force, and their crews are effectively perform their assigned tasks,” Yevmenov said.
The announcement was made on the eve of the Northern Fleet’s 283rd anniversary on Wednesday.
The two submarines, capable of firing 16 RSM-56 Bulava submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBM) up to 8,300 km, will constantly patrol the Arctic and other regions of the globe.
The Borei-class submarines could also undertake patrols in southern latitudes, ending nearly two-decade of absence in the region.
By the end of 2020, the Russian Navy should operate no fewer than eight Borei-class SSBN. The next five —four of them are already under construction— are Borei II-class SSBN, capable of carrying more than 20 RSM-56 Bulava SLBMs.

Massachusetts Families and Students to Protest the Joint Education Committee Proposal to Lift the Cap for Charter Schools
- Remove charter school language entirely from Senate Bill 235/House Bill 425 “An Act to Further Narrow the Achievement Gap;”
- Prior to any consideration of raising the charter school cap read the soon-to-be released audit from the State Auditor’s Office regarding charter school finances and practices;
- Work with constituents to draft a more comprehensive proposal regarding the charter school cap. This proposal must address the inequalities already identified, include clear and quantifiable accountability measures that are put into place prior to such legislation being proposed, and explore more equitable or separate funding methods that do not bankrupt our public schools.

Most smokers want to quit but keep failing in their attempts to break free of their addiction to tobacco. Continue reading if you’re a smoker who has had trouble quitting in the past. The paragraphs that follow provide arguments supported by the experience of others who have found success.
Get organized before you try to kick the nicotine habit for good. Assuming you’ll just be able to summon the resolve to quit when it counts is a dangerous and unrealistic way to handle a problem as serious as addiction.
Make a plan of action on what you will do instead of lighting up a cigarette. This might be anything from taking a stroll to contacting a buddy to whipping up a fruit smoothie.
In order to satisfy one’s cravings for nicotine, one might start an exercise regimen. Stress may be reduced by physical activity.
If you haven’t worked out in a while, take it easy at first. A short stroll is an excellent example of a workout that even a novice can do. Before starting an exercise regimen, it’s a good idea to consult with your doctor.
No matter how long it has been since you last smoked,
you will always regret trying to have “just one.” You’ve got a nicotine problem.
Even if having one won’t make you want them all day, it might be enough to get you back to smoking a pack every day.
Having “just one more” will happen a lot sooner than you’d prefer.
Try incorporating if putting on weight as you wean off cigarettes concerns you. Reduce the risk of gaining weight by including a little exercise plan into your daily routine. When trying to avoid weight gain after quitting, exercise is a must.
Stay strong. Having a relapse is really frequent. The process of quitting smoking is often difficult and requires many attempts for many smokers.
Consider the thoughts and feelings that contributed to the relapse. You should plan to stop as soon as you are ready to give it another go.
The best way to succeed in your attempt to stop smoking is to plan ahead.
Make a deal with yourself to stop smoking by a specific date, and if you’re successful, treat yourself to something you’ve been craving. In other words, you may purchase this reward with the money you no longer need to spend on cigarettes. Inspiration like this is just what you need.
Even if you can just control yourself long enough to take a single puff, you shouldn’t. It is a common misconception among smokers who are attempting to quit the habit that even a single puff won’t hurt them. But the trouble is that once you take that first whiff, you’re more likely to smoke the rest of the cigarette and eventually the full pack.
Find your triggers and strategies to avoid them before attempting to stop. Avoid alcohol if you often light up while intoxicated.
If you often light up before, during, or after meals, try adjusting your eating habits or surrounding to discourage this. You may adjust your smoking habits based on the information you get by keeping a log of when and where you smoke.
Get rid of all the tobacco products in your house.
Once you have made the decision to stop smoking, it is important to erase any reminders. Get rid of your ashtrays, lighters, matches, and anything else related to smoking. Toss all of your dirty laundry and give the place a thorough cleaning.
The last thing you need is a whiff of tobacco that may tempt you to start smoking again.
Learn the exact health benefits you might expect from giving up smoking.
Research shows that not smoking greatly reduces your risk of developing many different ailments. Find out how quickly you might anticipate experiencing additional minor benefits, such as enhanced breathing and taste.
Recall how great you felt before you lit up. Think back on the smoke-free, active, and healthy childhood you had.
This extra motivation to quit smoking might come from remembering your favorite tastes, smells, and physical condition before you started smoking.
As a result, many individuals have found that therapy is useful in helping them quit smoking. The desire to smoke often conceals deeper emotional concerns.
When you’ve resolved these issues, you’ll be in a better position to give up smoking. If you think this is something you’d want to try, talk to your doctor about getting a referral.
If you’ve made the decision to quit smoking, you may want to look into joining a support group.
Find telephone support lines or online chat rooms if you can’t commit to frequent meetings. When you need help, you may turn to these communities and get immediate assistance.
If you find yourself wishing you had a cigarette because of the difficulty of a certain task, it’s probably best to abandon that activity and find something easier. At times, you may have an inexplicable want to light up.
Some examples include going out for coffee or hanging out at a local watering hole with pals. Realize that you can’t manage these activities without a smoke, and then leave.
Participate in passive smoking. It’s normal to have occasional cravings after three weeks of successfully quitting the cigarette habit.
In spite of your best efforts to abstain, you find yourself longing for that familiar but enticing cigarette aroma. Take a minute to enjoy the wistful vapors wafting from downwind of present smokers, and then go on.
Unfortunately, if you think you can avoid encountering urges for the rest of your life, you will be sorely disappointed. The most important thing is that you never smoke again. It’s important to remind yourself of all the hard work that went into getting where you are today. Should I go through with it, knowing how difficult it may be?
You’ve made it to the conclusion of the essay, where you’ve read the views and opinions of many contributors. Like you, they were formerly smokers who have since kicked the habit. If you adopt some of their strategies, you should see results somewhat unlike theirs.

The AR-15, a versatile and popular firearm, has earned its reputation as the go-to choice for firearm enthusiasts, sport shooters, and even law enforcement. While the AR-15’s modular design allows for a wide range of customization, it’s essential to pay attention to the often-overlooked components that contribute to its overall performance. One such critical component is the trigger pin. In this article, we will delve into the world of AR-15 trigger pins, exploring their significance, types, and the impact they can have on your shooting experience.
The Basics of Trigger Pins:
Trigger pins serve as the linchpin connecting the trigger group to the lower receiver of the AR-15. These small, seemingly simple components play a crucial role in facilitating the smooth and precise operation of your firearm. When discussing trigger pins, two primary types come into focus: mil-spec and non-mil-spec.
Mil-Spec Trigger Pins:
Mil-spec, short for military specification, refers to the standard set by the U.S. military for various firearm components, including trigger pins. Mil-spec trigger pins are built to specific dimensions and tolerances, ensuring compatibility and interchangeability among different AR-15 models. While mil-spec trigger pins provide a reliable baseline, some enthusiasts seek aftermarket alternatives to enhance their shooting experience.
Non-Mil-Spec Trigger Pins:
Non-mil-spec trigger pins encompass a broad category of aftermarket options designed to provide shooters with a range of customization possibilities. These pins often come in different materials, such as stainless steel, titanium, or enhanced alloys, each offering unique advantages. Non-mil-spec trigger pins may feature improved tolerances, reduced friction, and enhanced durability, contributing to a smoother trigger pull and overall firearm performance.
The Impact of Trigger Pins on Performance:
Upgrading trigger pins can have a noticeable impact on the performance of your AR-15. While mil-spec trigger pins are generally reliable, shooters looking for a more refined experience may consider aftermarket options. Some potential benefits of upgrading trigger pins include:
Aftermarket trigger pins may be designed with materials and coatings that reduce friction, resulting in a smoother trigger pull and improved shot-to-shot consistency.
Upgraded trigger pins made from high-quality materials, such as titanium, can offer increased durability and resistance to wear over time.
Non-mil-spec trigger pins come in various shapes, sizes, and materials, allowing shooters to tailor their AR-15 to their preferences and shooting style.
While trigger pins may seem like small and inconspicuous components, their impact on your AR-15’s performance should not be underestimated. Whether you opt for mil-spec reliability or explore the world of aftermarket upgrades, understanding the role of trigger pins is essential for any firearm enthusiast. Take the time to research and consider your options, and you may find that a small investment in upgraded trigger pins can lead to a significant improvement in your shooting experience with the iconic AR-15.

Trey Gowdy: FBI Withheld 'Potential Game-Changer' Evidence During Russia Probe
Former congressman says he's seen evidence that was hidden from FISA court
Former congressman Trey Gowdy dropped a bombshell during a Sunday night interview by declaring that the FBI withheld "potential game-changer" evidence from the FISA court during the early stages of the Russia probe.
The retired South Carolina Republican, who chaired the House Intelligence Committee before leaving Congress last year, revealed he's "seen" the evidence and called for the information to be made public.
Speaking to Fox News, Mr. Gowdy said that there are unreleased transcripts between former Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos and an FBI informant.
Gowdy says details within these documents have the "potential to be a game-changer."
SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO
According to The Blaze, now that Robert Mueller has concluded his investigation, Attorney General William Barr has indicated that he will investigate whether government officials "put their thumb on the scale" during the Russia investigation, particularly in its early stages.
Gowdy teased that perhaps there was wrongdoing because government officials withheld the transcripts, which he characterized as exculpatory evidence when applying for Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrants against Trump campaign aide Carter Page.
"If the bureau is going to send an informant in, the informant is going to be wired," Gowdy said.
"And if the bureau is monitoring telephone calls, there's going to be a transcript of that.
"And some of us have been fortunate enough to know whether or not those transcripts exist, but they haven't been made public," he continued.
"And I think one, in particular, is going — it has the potential to actually persuade people."
"Very little on this Russia probe, I'm afraid, is going to persuade people who hate Trump or who love Trump," Gowdy went on to say.
"But there is some information in these transcripts that I think has the potential to be a game-changer if it's ever made public."
The former South Carolina lawmaker went on to echo Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas), who has called for the public release of the evidence.
"You know, Johnny Ratcliffe is rightfully exercised over the obligations that the government has to tell the whole truth to a court when you are seeking permission to spy or do surveillance on an American," Gowdy said.
"And part of that includes the responsibility of providing exculpatory information or information that tends to show the person didn't do something wrong.
"If you have exculpatory information, and you don't share it with the court, that ain't good," he explained.
"I have seen it. Johnny has seen it. I would love for your viewers to see it."

At 90, the birthday boy is a spring chicken
BWM’s new naked roadster is a retro classic designed to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the firm’s motorcycling division, but it’s also a modern miracle, says Pat Malone
TO UNDERSTAND the rather strange name of BMW’s latest bike you need to realise that it was first unveiled last year and was designed to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the company’s first bike back in 1923. Hence the R nineT (geddit?).
It certainly looks fit for purpose. If you dug up your great-grandad and pointed him at the nineT, his first utterance would be “BMW”. The bike takes all that’s best from the firm’s long motorcycling tradition and moulds it into a modern chassis to create a retro classic that looks straight out of the golden era.
A naked roadster that just begs to be customised, the nineT has the looks, and it’s got BMW’s impeccable quality control. The attention to detail is obvious
