The U.S. Coast Guard is proposing to exempt high-speed, oceangoing ferries that weigh at least 400 gross tons from installing oil filtering equipment as long as they contain holding tanks for oily bilge water, according to a notice published April 9 (77 Fed. Reg. 21,360).
The Coast Guard also is seeking comment on whether to require oily bilge water storage tanks to be installed on new non-oceangoing ships that weigh 400 gross tons and are delivered three years after the publication of the final rule.
The holding and storage tank requirements are among a half dozen changes that the Coast Guard is proposing to domestic regulations to align them with international standards governing marine pollution prevention and marine safety related to discharges of oily residues and bilge water.
The proposed rule would amend 33 C.F.R. Parts 151, 155, 156, and 157 and 46 C.F.R. Part 197. It would align U.S. standards with recent amendments to Annex I of the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by the Protocol of 1978, which were adopted by the Marine Environment Protection Committee, a committee of the International Maritime Organization, during its 52nd, 54th, 56th, and 59th sessions.
EPA said the goal of the proposed rulemaking is to protect the marine environment from discharges of bilge water and oil residues carried aboard oil tankers weighing at least 150 gross tons and oceangoing ships weighing at least 400 gross tons.
Existing Coast Guard regulations at 33 C.F.R. 155.360 and 155.370 apply to oceangoing vessels that weigh at least 400 gross tons. They require such vessels to be fitted with tanks that would store oil residue and with equipment designed to filter oil water mixtures.
One proposed change would apply to high-speed, oceangoing ferries that have a turnaround time of 24 hours. The proposal would exempt ferries from having to install oil filters as long as they have tanks capable of holding oily bilge water for the length of the voyage.
The proposal also would require vessels--other than the oceangoing ferries--that weigh at least 400 gross tons to ensure the oil sludge tanks have a separate designated pump and that there be no discharge connections to oily bilge water holding tanks. In addition, the oil sludge tanks would have to be fitted with drains that are manually operated, according to the Coast Guard proposal.
“This provision will reduce the risk of oil spills by insuring segregation of oily sludge residue from the bilge system,” the Coast Guard wrote in the proposed rule. “These measures prevent the direct discharge of oily sludge residue and the indirect discharge through oily bilge water.”
The Coast Guard also is seeking comment on whether to require new non-oceangoing ships that weigh at least 400 gross tons to be equipped with storage tanks for oily bilge water. Specifically, the agency wants information on the number, size, composition, and resulting damage to the environment from oily bilge discharges from non-oceangoing vessels.
The agency has sought comment on the costs of holding tanks for new ships and existing vessels and any additional thoughts on cost-effective alternatives to installing holding tanks as a way to curb oily water discharges.
The Coast Guard also is proposing to require reporting of failures of oil filtering equipment and oil discharge monitoring systems, and bunkering of oil into oil record books maintained by ships that weigh more than 400 gross tons and oil tankers that weigh 150 gross tons or more. Bunkering of oil refers to the transfer of fuel or lubricating oil from bunker barges to large ships.
The Coast Guard will accept comments until July 9, 2012. Comments should be identified by Docket I.D. No. USCG-2010-0194 and submitted at http://www.regulations.gov.
For more information about the proposal, contact Patrick J. Mannion in the Coast Guard's Office of Operating and Environmental Standards at Patrick.J.Mannion@uscg.mil or (202) 372-1439 .
The Coast Guard's proposed rule is available at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-04-09/pdf/2012-7919.pdf.

When chef Rishi Singh left Boheme—the Montrose bistro popular for its frozen drinks and flatbreads—it was a big deal. The two had formed a sort of symbiotic relationship: Boheme received accolades for Singh's inventive pizzas, and Singh enjoyed an increasingly bright (and well-deserved) spotlight for his creative melding of cuisines. A falling out over burgers—Boheme wanted them on the menu, Singh did not—led the two to part ways. It's ironic, therefore, that Singh ended up at Dry Creek Cafe, where he's currently revamping a menu of mostly...you guessed it...burgers.
Dry Creek Cafe
544 Yale St.
The Heights cafe has always been known for its burgers, notably the Triple Bypass stacked high with bacon, cheese, and a fried egg. And until recently, it's also been known for being, well, dry. Armed these days with a beer and wine permit and a brand-new chef, Dry Creek Cafe—the smallest in the "Creek" group of restaurants which also includes Onion Creek, Cedar Creek, and Canyon Creek—is the proud recipient of a facelift that has freshened the place up while keeping things recognizable for the regulars (we're looking at you, Renee Zellweger).
On the current menu, Singh's contributions are highlighted in bold, though even without the emphasis it's easy to see which are his: Korean chicken wings (available only on Wednesdays, the waiter told us today after we'd already ordered them, sadly); barbacoa in several applications, such as a cheesesteak and a quesadilla; a quartet of new burgers (among them one with chorizo and asadero cheese, and another with goat cheese and smoked jalapeños); and a section called Fancy Dinner Plates with your choice of a fried Cornish game hen or crispy battered cod, both served with seasonal vegetables and a honey-chipotle potato salad.
At lunch today, I went for Singh's new barbacoa cheesesteak. I liked the look of it immediately, tangles of sauteed onions and bell peppers with meaty mushrooms and tender chunks of beef on a warm, soft roll. Sadly, the barbacoa had no seasoning at all—something confirmed by both of my tablemates—and the creamy serrano dressing served on the side suffered the same fate. Both desperately needed salt, though adding it at this late stage would have only made the cheesesteak salty, not seasoned. My friend's onion rings were similarly devoid of seasoning, and her fried shrimp were dressed in an overly thick batter that made it tough to taste the sweet, fresh shrimp underneath.
Next time, I think we'll stick to Dry Creek's specialty: burgers. Maybe that's where Singh's real talents lie after all.

In a world of superhuman beings, Saitama is a unique hero, he can defeat enemies with a single punch. But being just one hero in a world filled with them, his life is empty and hollow: he gets no respect from anyone, he displays a laidback attitude to everything and for the most part, he finds his overall hero life pointless These are the adventures of an ordinary yet extraordinary hero.
I didn't know about the anime when its manga existed but many people told me that "this thing is brilliant you gotta read it" and I was like "meh" and didn't bother much.
However, recently I saw that the show is being animated and 6 episodes were released and I just wanted to give it a shot.
And I was like.. Absolutely blown away with the first episode and watched all 6 episodes without a break and I can say this is currently the best anime out there you can watch.
The story is about a bald superhero defeating every bad-ass enemy in his way with a single blow. So, every tiny bit of second you watch has a value and NEVER boring since they packed 22 manga episodes into 6 anime episodes so far.
I watched over a hundred anime but this is the first one making me impatiently wait for Sundays. Just go and watch it, NOW! All Titles TV Episodes Celebs Companies Keywords Advanced Search.

There are many questions that artificial intelligence can help answer, even ones you might not want to know. These days, an Artificial Intelligence death calculator can predict your death date with startling accuracy.
It is an exciting tool that forecasts life expectancy based on lifestyle and health data by using advanced codes.
In this article, we will examine how to use an AI death calculator, examine our possibilities, and discuss the subtleties and restrictions associated with these forecasts.
What is an Artificial Intelligence Death Calculator?
The first step to realizing the possibilities of an AI death calculator is to understand how it operates. These calculators use advanced algorithms to estimate the years you have left to live based on a wide range of personal data points.
The AI death calculator provides a comprehensive picture of your life expectancy by considering various factors, from basic facts like age and weight to more complex aspects like health history and lifestyle choices.
The estimate of your remaining years is a crucial discovery you will discover after interacting with an AI death calculator. This number offers a fascinating peek into the future, supported by statistical models and population-level insights. However, what aspects should you consider before giving these forecasts too much weight, and how reliable are they?
Workings of the AI Death Calculator
The Artificial Intelligence Death Calculator uses recurrent neural networks (RNNs), a machine learning technique, to determine the dates and causes of deaths. Here are some crucial specifics about how it works:
Users of the Death Calculator are prompted to provide information such as their date of birth, place of residence, height, weight, smoking status, medical history, and current conditions. The algorithm can create a human profile thanks to this personal information.
Examining relationships within the input data produces a predicted lifespan, a precise day and time of death, and the top three most likely reasons for death.
The algorithm receives fresh data every minute, allowing for constant updates on life expectancy. Forecasts are subject to alter over time in response to new developments in lifestyle or health.
Analysis of Neural Networks
The long-short-term memory (LSTM) model receives the inputs. Over time, this kind of deep learning model can better understand context and patterns by recalling past data.
Black Box Style
The precise inner workings of the Death Calculator’s algorithm are hidden behind a proprietary “black box,” just like many other AI systems. Users need help to observe how their inputs were used to calculate the outcomes.
Algorithms and Data Used in Prediction
Life2vec is a tool that estimates life expectancy by analyzing data from six million Danish citizens. The model’s predictions were accurate in 78% of the cases.
Predictions are made based on medical records, occupation, and income information. When the time comes, the app can also predict how much money you will have.
While smoking is connected to lower lifespans, characteristics such as leadership positions and higher incomes are associated with longer lifespans. The tool also takes into account things like exercise schedules and mental health.
A person’s life events were coded; for example, S52 represents a fractured forearm, 072 a hemorrhage following childbirth, and POS3513 a computer systems technician.
A group of individuals in Denmark between the ages of 35 and 65 have so far undergone Life2vec testing; half of them have now passed away.
Entering your data is an essential step after selecting an AI death calculator of your choice. The degree of honesty and thoroughness with which you supply the necessary facts will determine how accurate the prediction is.
Basic Personal Information: Gender, Age, and Other
The fundamental information includes age, gender, location, height, and weight. Specific calculators might inquire about education level, marital status, and other life expectancy variables.
Family History and Health: Revealing Important Elements
Current medical problems, previous treatments, drugs, and family medical history significantly influence predictions. The more thorough your input is, the more the AI-generated estimate will be increasingly precise and nuanced.
Lifestyle Elements: Not Just the Essentials
Lifestyle factors like nutrition, exercise, sleep patterns, and smoking might help us understand potential benefits and risks. The calculator considers your daily decisions and actions, providing a tailored look at how these may affect your life expectancy.
Accuracy and Limitations of the Tool
The AI Death Calculator’s developers assert that the program can make highly accurate predictions about a person’s final moments. Nevertheless, there are valid grounds to doubt these assertions.
Extremely Poor Total Accuracy
Only three out of one hundred test scenarios in the backtesting process allowed the Death Calculator to forecast the death date accurately. This 3% accuracy rate is less accurate than a random guess. Furthermore, just thirty percent of the anticipated causes of mortality turned out to be exact.
Unexpected Events Are Hard to Predict
Unexpected events that could result in early death, such as violent crimes, sudden fatal illnesses, or random accidents, are not taken into consideration by the Death Calculator. Consideration is limited to plausible reasons based on preexisting medical issues.
Medical Records Are Not Accessible
The algorithm needs more inputs to conclude without a comprehensive medical history, imaging scans, genetic data, and modern diagnostics testing. Users’ self-reported data needs to be more profound.
Hardest People Are Healthy People
The prediction of death dates is particularly challenging for otherwise healthy persons who have little or no risk factors. Diseases will eventually emerge depending on a complicated web of hereditary and environmental factors.
The AI Death Calculator probably overstates its accuracy due to the significant limits it confronts, even if AIs may continue to improve statistically at forecasting lifespans.
Potential Misuse of Predictions
The AI Death Calculator presents some legitimate questions regarding the ethics of AI predictions despite its seeming lack of a solid scientific approach.
Encourages Panic and Fear
Regardless of the tool’s accuracy, receiving a precise death date prediction can be highly stressful and anxiety-inducing for many people. Thoughts of death may dominate an individual’s mental state.
Potential for Discrimination
AI computations frequently employ data such as gender, nationality, income level, and ethnicity. Even if discrimination is not the developers’ aim, such data may result in biased predictions.
The Death Calculator’s data sources are obscure, and users cannot verify the tool’s logic or fairness. The “black box” approach hampers accountability and opportunity to address issues.
Privacy Issues: The use of personal information is a primary ethical concern. AI Death Calculators frequently employ private data, which raises concerns about data security and the possibility of abuse or illegal access.
Impact on Mental Health: Estimating a person’s life expectancy can significantly affect their mental health. When such forecasts are made, people may feel anxious, depressed, or experience existential discomfort, mainly if they believe the predictions to be deterministic rather than probabilistic.
Potential Abuse: These calculators’ predictions risk being misused or misunderstood. For example, employers could use them to make discriminatory hiring or promotion choices or by insurance firms to modify premiums unfairly.
Impact on the Insurance and Healthcare Sectors: Artificial Intelligence death calculators have the potential to change risk assessment in the insurance and healthcare sectors completely. Life expectancy data can help insurers better customize plans and help healthcare professionals focus on preventative care for high-risk patients.
Impact on End-of-Life Decision-Making: Based on these tools’ predictions, people may reevaluate their estate planning, advance directives, or healthcare preferences. This could result in better-informed choices being made about resource allocation and end-of-life care.
Cultural Attitudes Towards Technology and Mortality: The broad use of AI death calculators may influence how society views technology and mortality. It might spark conversations about digital privacy rights, accepting death, and the moral limits of predictive analytics.
Conclusion – Artificial Intelligence Death Calculator
Artificial Intelligence Death Calculators present both opportunities and risks in their development and application. Although they can potentially improve insurance and healthcare procedures, carefully considering their ethical application and social impact is essential. To guarantee that these tools help society without jeopardizing individual rights or well-being, stakeholders must work together to create strong legislation, prioritize data privacy, and encourage responsible implementation.
FAQs – Artificial Intelligence Death Calculator
What is an Artificial Intelligence Death Calculator?
A tool known as an AI death calculator makes predictions about a person’s life expectancy using algorithms and various inputs, including health information, lifestyle decisions, and genetic predispositions.
How accurate do these calculators make the predictions?
The degree of algorithmic complexity and the caliber of data inputs affect accuracy. Specific forecasts have a more considerable margin of error than others, even though others are fairly accurate.
What kind of data is used in these predictions?
These calculators may use numerous types of data, such as medical history, demographics, genetic markers, lifestyle choices, and environmental factors.
Are using these technologies going to raise any privacy issues?
Indeed, privacy concerns emerge due to the sensitivity of the data used and the danger of misuse or illegal access. Users are responsible for ensuring that their data is handled transparently and securely.
Can the predictions made by these tools affect my mental health?
Indeed, knowing one’s expected life expectancy might affect mental health, possibly leading to existential discomfort, anxiety, or depression. It’s critical to approach these forecasts cautiously and, if necessary, to seek assistance.
How are these predictions used in the healthcare and insurance industries?
Insurers and healthcare providers could use these forecasts to evaluate risk, customize treatments, and modify premiums. However, ethical considerations must govern their use to avoid prejudice or excessive influence.
Are there any regulations governing the use of these tools?
We are currently developing regulations for the AI Death Calculator. It has not yet been made publicly available because its data should not be utilized in specific scenarios and because it was only trained on Danish people.

When in October the Portuguese Minister of Economy, Fernando Teixeira dos Santos, said that if Portugal’s bonds went through the ceiling of seven percent the country would have to be rescued by the EU, like Ireland, the noose was already dangling a little closer. For weeks now, Portuguese ten-year bonds have hovered above that seven percent mark.
When after the last Ecofin the same Teixeira complained on 15 February of “the delays and doubts”, especially those of Germany, over the widespread request to expand and make more flexible the current temporary rescue fund, he was absolutely right. Portugal, as with Greece, is doing its part with the austerity programme. Like Greece, it’s paying a high price for the tardiness of Berlin in coming to a decision. And for suggesting in January that Berlin pick up the pace.
This pact is not a bad idea
The go-slow is calculated. Chancellor Merkel also has her reasons. She’s being squeezed by the upcoming German elections and a near-unanimity across society on the ultra-orthodox/nationalist view of the monetary union: strict deficit reduction, nothing doing with Eurobonds, no new common commitments… That’s why she’s urging a “global package” on her European partners, with a little something in return for her support of the single currency: the Competitiveness Pact.
This pact, with its six points, is not a bad idea. But it was tabled on 4 February as an accession agreement, as a “diktat” from the Merkel-Sarkozy duo, and it landed like a bull in a china shop. Rightly, it stirred up a rebellion among the shopkeepers.
President Van Rompuy has trimmed its horns. He has cut down on its intergovernmental nature and swung the reins back towards the common institutions, for without those there are just two member states in the saddle. And he has watered down the absurdity of imposing a zero deficit on constitutions.
But the other points – linking wages to productivity, if social dialogue is respected; mutually recognising diplomas and degrees; harmonising the corporate tax bases of the EU27 (it is more crucial to unify the bases, since multitudes of obscure deductions proliferate, than to pool the rates); coordinating retirement ages; or agreeing on a plan to resolve future bank crisis – are not merely agreeable. They are necessary. They should be an essential fixture in a true economic union.
Or Europe will be dragged along the road to Calvary
If this plan is adopted, Berlin will have no choice but to play its part. How? Some are betting on back-door agreements, on a compromise that will come in useful at this month’s summits. The current Rescue Fund will be expanded to 500 billion euros (with the support of more solvent countries); or it may issue Eurobonds (the right dream, but still a dream); or buy bonds from countries in distress (resisted by many Germans, not just the Chancellor); or make loans to those affected to let them buy their bonds back at a higher price. The economic effects of the latter two initiatives would be equivalent to issuing Eurobonds.
And in return, Berlin would get what it craves: that the banks will pay a chunk of the bailout bill. How? By buying back the not-so-good bonds at their secondary market price, well below the nominal price. The result would be partly achieved: some private debt would be removed without a country having to declare a suspension of payments. Or something similar will be cobbled together. Or Europe will be dragged along the road to Calvary. Or there will be a train wreck.
Translated from the Spanish by Anton Baer
Helsinki versus Athens
“It’s Athens in the red corner versus Helsinki in the blue corner, as Europe’s two great families of ideological pugilists ready themselves for a pair of ‘locker-room strategy sessions’ at opposite sides of the continent ahead of the most important European summit since the economic crisis hit.”, writes Euobserver.
On the 4 March, the Party of European Socialists is gathering in Athens while its opposite number in the European Parliament, the European People’s Party (EPP) is meeting the same day in Helsinki.
“It is perfectly normal for the centre-left Party of European Socialists, which claims just six heads of state and government at the moment in Europe, and the centre-right European People’s Party, which has 14, to gather ahead of EU summits in Brussels. But these are normally low-key affairs that last a few hours and take place on the same day as the European Council relatively close to the EU quarter.”
The two political families are to hone their weaponry for the 11 March gathering of the Eurozone 17 in Brussels. “No ordinary summit, the meeting is to consider some of the most radical changes to both the economy and the structure of the union seen in the past generation,” the Brussels based website notes.

Nearly half of singles and divorced Moroccans are against the criminalization of consensual sexual relationships outside of marriage, according to a recent survey.
Conducted by the Moroccan Center for Citizenship, the opinion poll explored Moroccans’ perspectives on amending national legislation related to individual freedoms, which uncovered that 53% of married citizens support the criminalization of out-of-wedlock sexual relations..
The poll’s data indicates that about 48% of Moroccan women oppose the criminalization of these relationships, against nearly 53% of males who support it.
The same source recorded that 54% support criminalizing public eating during the holy month of Ramadan, while 40% oppose it. The highest rate of support for criminalizing the act was recorded among citizens between the ages of 40 and 49 years, at 60%.
In terms of their perceptions on inheritance law, roughly 60% of Moroccans were against revisiting it within the framework of broad and flexible Islamic jurisprudence; this opposition is particularly prevalent among Moroccan men, who rate it at 62%, whereas 57% of Moroccan women were in favor of revisiting the requirements of inheritance.
The poll showed that 34% of Moroccans were against abortion and 58% agreed that it should be permitted in cases of rape, as long as medical permission was obtained. When it comes to supporting this procedure, Moroccan women ranked highest with 78% of them in favor, compared to 55% of men.
A startling 47% of Moroccans opposed improving women’s rights and gender equality through legislation, while 45% of them agreed to it, 71% of the supporters were women, and 51% of the opposing poll takers were men.
The poll demonstrates a large disparity in the politics of men and women regarding several issues, but the majority of them unanimously agreed to prevent the marriage of girls under the age of 18.
They also unanimously agreed to maintain the death penalty, as 65% expressed the necessity of maintaining the capital punishment in Moroccan criminal legislation, while about 28% of Moroccans called for its abolition.
On the other hand, 83% of Moroccan citizens believe that the protection of individuals from violations of their freedoms on social media platforms must be strengthened. More than 40% of Moroccans believe that their society is “conservative in theory and progressive in action.”
The Moroccan Center for Citizenship recommended developing national legislation to enhance comprehensiveness and justice in the Moroccan legal system, which will ensure that laws are applied with the utmost clarity for the benefit of all citizens.
In addition, the center recommends the protection required for citizens to exercise their individual freedoms and directing amendments to national legislation to eradicate the injustice and discrimination that certain groups suffer from.

text: The purpose of this study is to examine changes in stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios, to determine the levels of metals (aluminum, copper, iron, manganese, lead, and zinc), and to assess the health risks associated with consumption of the most consumed pelagic and demersal fish species in Turkey. Trachurus mediterraneus, Mullus barbatus, and Merlangius merlangus were seasonally caught from the Eastern Black Sea in 2020. Concentrations of heavy metals in fish muscle tissues were measured using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy whereas stable isotope analysis was performed using Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer. The detected levels of metals studied in all fish species except lead were below the determined limits of national and international standards. In addition, the carcinogenic risk index was considered significant in all fish species. Considering the principal components analysis results, Cu and Pb may have originated from similar sources. No significant difference in metal content and stable isotope rates was observed between different species of fish. Also, target hazard quotient values were found below 1 in all species, which means that the consumption of the studied fish species does not pose a health risk.

Although Hurricane Sandy put a delay on a lot of the Halloween festivities, I think it’s safe to safe the holiday season is finally upon us. And with the arrival of HallowThanksMas, my brain turns to food.
That’s kind of a lie. My brain is usually turned to food, but more so over the next two months. As I prepare for Scott’s family coming into town for Thanksgiving and the usual myriad of holiday dinners, I’m looking everywhere I can for food and drink ideas.
Fortunately, the Fabulous Food Show is coming back to Cleveland for its 7th year with 3 days of chef demonstrations, tips and treats (Nov. 9-11)
I’ve enjoyed this show since first moving to Cleveland and last year loved exploring its local food highlights.
This year’s Fabulous Food Show couldn’t have come at a better time as Hometown Hero Michael Symon kicks things off with a demonstration in the Main Kitchen Theatre on Friday at 11 am.
In addition to Chef Symon’s appearances throughout the weekend, the show also sees returns from Celebrity Chefs Guy Fieri and Anne Burrell.
New to the show this year are Sandwich King Jeff Mauro, French cuisine master Jacques Pepin, and longtime veterans of food television Sara Moulton and Mary Ann Esposito. I’m excited to see the show incorporate chefs like Pepin, Moulton and Esposito from long-running PBS cooking shows (especially Ciao Italia with Mary Ann Esposito – I’m nuts for Italian food).
However, no matter what sort of food you enjoy there should be no shortage of things to do since a total of 8 stages throughout the I-X Center will feature 100+ live demonstrations throughout the festival. Other things I’m looking forward to:
- Maria Isabella, author of In the Kitchen with Cleveland’s Favorite Chefs, challenges local chefs like Dante Boccuzzi, Nolan Konkowsk, Zack Bruell and Ben Bebenroth with their favorite recipes for last-minute entertaining
- Tri-C’s Hospitality & Culinary Arts department presents the NEO Culinary Challenge
- The Great Sugardale BAC-ON pits national finalists head-to-head with their most creative bacon-themed recipes
- Michael Ruhlman and Laura Taxel – two of my favorite Cleveland authors – present on bacon curing and the West Side Market, respectively
- Taste of the Holidays and the Vitamix Spirit Lounge’s Holiday Batch Drink Contest feature the region’s food and drink experts sharing favorite seasonal flavors
Save time to browse more than 500 vendors at the Food Show Market Place and By Hand Fine Art & Craft Fair, sampling products, services, and unique artistic items for the holidays. And afterwards sample a selection of wine and beer in the Grand Tasting Pavilion.
Tickets for the Fabulous Food Show start at $25 for one-day general admission if purchased online ($30.00 onsite during the show). Reserved floor seating and weekend passes are also available.

11 Aug U.S. Engineering Firm’s System Issues Exposes Clients’ Corporate Information
Electrical engineering firm Power Quality Engineering (PQE) in Texas has accidentally exposed clients’ sensitive corporate information online because of a system oversight.
UpGuard security researchers flagged the issue, identifying a port used for remote synchronization. Researchers say administrators were supposed to restrict access to the port, but PQE missed a configuration step which consequently exposed client data.
Clients like Oracle, Dell, and the City of Austin are said to be in danger of data theft. The exposed information included electrical infrastructure data, detailing weaknesses inspected in companies. It also contained sensitive information to confidential government-operated intelligence rooms located in a Dell facility.
As for exposed information on Austin, data on solar field schematics and hazardous project reports were also included.
According to UpGuard, the incident is an example of how attackers can take advantage of system flaws that are easily overlooked by companies. They warned firms to always ensure security protocols are implemented properly to prevent exposure.

Unruly Air India Express passenger delays Dubai flight to Mumbai
An Air India Express flight from Dubai to Mumbai had to return to the airport terminal at Dubai after taxiing on Sunday evening due to the unruly behaviour of a passenger.
The incident delayed the flight by one-and-a-half-hours, close on the heels of a 27-hour delay by an Air India flight from Dubai to Kochi on the same day.
A senior official at Air India Express told Arabian Business that due to the high outside temperature at Dubai, the flight cabin of IX 248 was warm while taxiing.
“This led to some of the passengers complaining about the air conditioning not working properly but the crew explained that the cooling will increase once the flight takes off. So the passengers were pacified, except one lady, an Indian, who got almost hysterical and started shouting at the crew, creating a ruckus,” the airline official said.
While the crews were giving the safety demonstration, the passenger, seated in 26 C, kept shouting for water and kept shouting that she did not want to travel, despite the other passengers requesting her to keep calm, the airline official said.
“As part of the safety protocol, our crew had to inform the captain about the behaviour by this lady passenger and when they were talking on the intercom to the captain, the lady passenger had snatched the phone. This made the crew scared as flying with such a passenger for nearly four hours will be risky and the aircraft had to be returned to the terminal,” the official said.
As per the procedure in Dubai, the airline crew had to call the police to deplane the unruly passenger.
The Air India Express official said after offloading, the female passenger was handed over to the airline’s ground staff at Dubai airport, who took care of her.
The airline, however, did not file any complaint against the passenger, the official said.

WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. — As of Tuesday, the Navajo Area Indian Health Service (IHS) reported that 135,685 total vaccine doses have been received, 116,611 administered, which represents nearly 86-percent so far. 28,961 individuals have received a first and second dose of the vaccines.
On Tuesday, the Navajo Department of Health, in coordination with the Navajo Epidemiology Center and the Navajo Area Indian Health Service, reported 20 new Covid-19 positive cases for the Navajo Nation and seven more deaths. The total number of deaths is now 1,152 as of Tuesday. Reports indicate that 16,009 individuals have recovered from Covid-19, and 242,933 Covid-19 tests have been administered. The total number of positive Covid-19 cases is now 29,576, including five delayed reported cases.
Navajo Nation Covid-19 positive cases by Service Unit:
- Chinle Service Unit: 5,445
- Crownpoint Service Unit: 2,849
- Ft. Defiance Service Unit: 3,496
- Gallup Service Unit: 4,675
- Kayenta Service Unit: 2,628
- Shiprock Service Unit: 4,995
- Tuba City Service Unit: 3,586

* 19 residences with Covid-19 positive cases are not specific enough to place them accurately in a Service Unit.
On Tuesday, the state of Arizona reported 1,184 new cases, Utah reported 716, and New Mexico reported 314 new cases.
“There’s no doubt in my mind that we will overcome this Covid-19 pandemic, but how soon we do that depends on us as individuals. Every day, we make decisions that either keep us safe and healthy or put us at greater risk of this virus. It’s up to us as individuals to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Our public health experts have learned a lot about this virus over the last year, but we don’t know as much about the new variants that are spreading from person to person. When we travel off the Navajo Nation or hold in-person gatherings, we put ourselves at much greater risk of catching or spreading Covid-19. Our health care workers are doing outstanding work in administering the vaccines, but we all have to do our part. Stay home as much as possible, wear a mask or two in public and near others, avoid large gatherings or crowds, practice social distancing, and wash your hands often,” said Navajo Nation President Jonathan Nez.
Health care facilities across the Navajo Nation continue to administer Covid-19 vaccines during drive-thru events or by appointment. If you would like to receive the vaccine, please contact your health care provider for more information for your Service Unit.
On Thursday, Feb. 25 at 10:00 a.m. (MST), the Nez-Lizer Administration will host an online town hall on the Nez-Lizer Facebook page and YouTube channel to provide more Covid-19 updates.
For more information, including helpful prevention tips, and resources to help stop the spread of Covid-19, visit the Navajo Department of Health's Covid-19 website: http://www.ndoh.navajo-nsn.gov/Covid-19. For Covid-19 related questions and information, call (928) 871-7014.

The Hidden Beach “Unwrapped” series is one of my favorites, so I’m really?excited about this compilation! 🙂 Hidden Beach recordings has collaborated with Collipark records for “Unwrapped Vol. 5.0: The Collipark Cafe Sessions.”? It is scheduled for release June 24th and will feature the jazz versions of some of Atlanta’s greatest hits!
The timing coincided with a hip-hop/jazz hybrid project that Collipark Studios had started on its own. “I felt Hidden Beach and its ‘Unwrapped’ series was a no-brainer,” says Mr. Collipark. “You have to do a project like this right; with someone who knows that older audience. My label knows what the youth want. So we felt this would be a great partnership to make a CD that both parents and children will enjoy.” (Source)
Check out the tracklist after the jump…
Here is the track list for “Unwrapped Vo. 5.0”:
“A Bay Bay”
“Walk It Out”
“Ay Bay Bay” (Mike Philly version)
“Bridging the Great Divide” (bonus track with Mr. Collipark)

Just over a third of Americans with children under the age of 12 have a gun in the household, according to a new Pew poll, which is “nearly identical to the share of childless adults or those with older children who have a firearm at home.”
Additionally it stated that while blacks are significantly more likely than whites to be the victims of gun violence, they are only half as likely to own a gun as whites are.
The poll, which studied the demographics of gun owners, also found that Republicans, at 49 percent, are two times more likely to have a gun at home than Democrats at 22 percent. This fits the general American political map as well; the traditionally more liberal Northeast has the lowest rate of gun ownership (27 percent) and the more conservative South has the highest rate (38 percent).
“The survey results also would appear to challenge the conventional wisdom that gun ownership is far more prevalent in the South,” Pew wrote. “According to the survey, southerners are just about as likely as those living in the Midwest or the West to have a gun at home.”

Bill Gates In Washington To Promote Polio Eradication Plan, Discuss Other Health-Related Agendas
Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, was in Washington this week “promoting his plan to combine a 1960s-era oral vaccine with new satellite photography and GPS trackers to eradicate polio finally from the globe,” Politico reports. “Gates appeared with former President Bill Clinton at a public forum Tuesday morning and then went behind closed doors to speak to the Senate Republican luncheon,” the news service writes, noting “there were face-to-face meetings [on Tuesday] with senior members of the Senate and House Appropriations committees important to Gates’s health and agriculture agendas.” According to the news service, Gates is “asking Washington to increase its annual commitment to an international polio fund from $100 million to $150 million. That’s a 50 percent increase — post the March sequester.”
“But the payoff could be huge if polio is wiped out, eliminating the need for costly vaccinations in the future,” Politico adds (Rogers, 5/8). “‘Polio is special,’ Gates tells NPR’s Robert Siegel on ‘All Things Considered,'” NPR’s “Shots” blog writes, adding, “Once you [eradicate polio], you save $2 billion a year that will be applied to those other [health] activities. There’s no better deal economically to getting to zero” cases. The blog continues, “Plus, he says, much of the $5.5 billion spent on polio will go toward building up health care systems in the affected countries” (Doucleff, 5/8). According to Politico, while in Washington, “Gates [also] talked up new farming methods and genetically modified seeds as an answer for hunger in Africa, whose staple crops were neglected in earlier research” (5/8).

Government takes the rein, vows to launch incubators with coworking spaces in Pakistan
The Minister of State for Information Technology and Telecom, Anusha Rehman, has announced the government’s plan to launch a national incubation program to encourage entrepreneurship in the country.
Announced today at the 44th Board of Directors meeting of National ICT R&D fund, the program will include the establishment of a fully-fledged “National Incubation Center”. They have also brought the National Information Technology Board (NITB) onboard to provide working space for the incubatees. The National Incubation Center will act as the government’s official incubator for Pakistani entrepreneurs.
Calling the young entrepreneurs of this country an asset, Anusha Rehman said that the government is now focused on their capacity building through an appropriate policy measure. The first step will be the establishment of the Incubation Center which will be funded by the ICT R&D Fund.
Seeing the recent outburst of talent in the country in the form of dozens of innovative new startups, a number of incubators and accelerators have started functioning in the country.
Just today, telecom operator Telenor’s very own startup accelerator “Velocity” went live with pitches from eight entrepreneurs from all over the country. However, there is a dearth of officially-government backed incubators, save for PITB’s Launchpad, and it is really good news for the entrepreneurs of the country that the government is finally starting to pay attention to this sector. The government even signed an agreement with Austin’s Economic Development program for a two year exchange of entrepreneurs program.
These may seem like baby steps as compared to the laborious work being done in our neighbouring country with their recently-unveiled startup action plan, but at least it is a step in the right direction.

The Sherman Economic Development Corp. (SEDCO) struck a deal with Thea Development LLC to sell approximately 90% of Sherman, TX’s Progress Park I. Thea Development plans to develop infrastructure for Cassini Gateway I, a site that can accommodate five data centers totaling more than one million square feet.
According to SEDCO, Thea Development will build one data center building a year, over the next five years, for approximately $200 million per facility, meaning a total capital investment of $1 billion. SEDCO President John Plotnik told the Sherman Herald-Democrat that the developer would also build a large substation and redundancy power. Cassini Gateway I is on Sherman’s south side, and adjacent to the 758-megawatt Panda Sherman Power Plant.
Progress Park is a 3,300-acre, master-planned business park under development by SEDCO. Progress Park I totals 186 acres.

ORLANDO, FL – The Orlando Magic returned home from a frustrating west coast road trip and took out all of those frustrations on the New York Knicks with a 107-89 win at The Amway Center on Wednesday night..
It’s gotta be the home cooking, or much needed rest that had the Magic lifted last night. The Magic, coming off of a 1-4 west coast road trip and having only 9 players and two point guards available for the game, and one of them was just signed, came ready to play.
Terrance Ross came was on fire last night with 30 points, infusing going 5 of 6 from 3-point land, and intense energy. Dude was everywhere on offense and defense, giving the team the energy lift that they needed.
Hopeful All-star Nikola Vucevic scored 16 points, which is below his average, however, he puled down 15 rebounds during the game. Evan Fournier returned to the floor for Orlando and scored a solid 19 points.
Michael Carter-Williams also provided energy at point guard, with 6 points but a 7 key assists, keeping the ball moving into the right place at the right time.
The Knicks were lead by a rejuvenated Julius Randle with 25 points, followed by RJ Barrett with 15 points. Elfred Payton was also a menace with drive to the inside, Nerlens Noel pulled down 9 reboots for New York.
The Game was a pretty even match through most of the first half , With the Knicks leading the score in the first quarter 32-23, but the Magic scratching back to a 30-24 second quarter scoring tally and a score of 56-53 Knicks lead going into the half.
The Magic outscored the Knicks 30-14 in the third quarter, leading by as much as 13 points in the quarter. Aggressive play by Michal Carter-Williams kept New York honest on the inside, with a couple of emphatic dunks during the game.
The Magic seemed to have the Knicks figured out by the fourth quarter, as New York’s offense just wasn’t functioning. Head Coach Tom Thibodeau called time out after time out because of offensive or defensive breakdowns. Orlando outscored the Knicks 24-19 in the fourth quarter, meaning New York scored only 33 points in the second half.
“Playing against a team that’s been playing really well, and playing from an early deficit also, I thought guys hung in there,” Magic Head Coach Clifford said. “Particularly the second half was one of the, obviously, better 24 minutes we’ve played so far.”
The Magic next face the visiting Golden State Warriors on Friday, February 19th at The Amway Center.

Robert Pfeffer was honored for his career achievements in chemical engineering at the recent annual meeting of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) in Salt Lake City.
The AIChE is the world’s leading organization for chemical engineering professionals, with more than 50,000 members from more than 100 countries.
Pfeffer, a research professor in the School for Engineering of Matter, Transport and Energy, came to Arizona State University in 2006 after a long career that included high-ranking faculty, administrative and research leadership positions at the New Jersey Institute of Technology and the City College of the City University of New York.
At a special session of the AIChE meeting, Pfeffer was introduced as one of the “pioneers of particle technology,” followed by a presentation that highlighted the long list of areas in which he has done significant research.
The session chair spotlighted his work on the fluidization of nanostructured silica aerogels for use as a filter for submicron oil droplets in air, inverse fluidization of silica aerogels for removal of oil and other organic contaminants from wastewater, and the continuous polymer coating of silica nanoparticles and pharmaceutical particles using a hollow fiber-based crystallizer.
Especially noted was Pfeffer’s research in microjet-assisted fluidization of nanopowders, for which he has been granted three U.S. patents. Overall, he has earned 11 U.S. patents during his career.
The introduction was followed by six technical talks in Pfeffer’s honor by leading particle technology researchers, followed by remarks from two of his former students who earned doctoral degrees under his guidance and by the president of the International Fine Particle Research Institute.
The institute is a consortium of about 25 large multinational companies that sponsors state-of-the-art research in fine particles at major Universities throughout the world. Pfeffer helped found the institute in 1979 and served as its U.S. scientific adviser for 23 years.
To celebrate Pfeffer’s special recognition by the AIChE, faculty members in the chemical engineering program in the School for Engineering of Matter, Transport and Energy organized a tribute to Pfeffer as part of the ASU reception at the annual meeting. Friends and colleagues offered comments about his many contributions to his field.
“He is a scholar who has a genuine interest in solving critical engineering problems and he truly cares about our chemical engineering program and its students,” ASU Regent’s Professor Jerry Lin said of Pfeffer. “He has published many journal papers on important research conducted at ASU, and helped a good number of students succeed in earning master’s and doctoral degrees.”

I drove to Fayetteville mid-afternoon, and went to the box office to get my ticket at Will Call. There were 20-30 people already hanging out around the venue, with a couple of hours to go before the concert. I left the venue and drove around looking for the hotel. The area around the mall has changed a lot since I lived in Fayetteville (and I realize that this is what cranky old people say - but it's totally true). It took a bit more driving than I expected to find the hotel that was only two blocks from the mall. I found a Market Place Express restaurant and had a burger. I drove back to the mall, timing my arrival toward the end of the opening act. I got to my seat on the 7th row, six seats right of center.
I caught the last two songs of the opening act (whose name escapes me at the moment), a lanky long-haired singer-songwriter. Her last song was a cover of Brandi Carlile's "Josephine" - knowing that the audience most likely attended Brandi's concert at George's Majestic Lounge just a few months ago. I sat uncomfortably in my seat during the in-between, with a soft-spoken couple on my right, 5 empty seats to my left, a family of 5 in front of me. The heat of the evening sun and humidity just made me feel like a big unpopular sweaty blob. I was delighted that the Indigo Girls took the stage 10 minutes early - jolting me out of the icks and right into my first solo concert experience.
Love of Our Lives (Poseidon and the Bitter Bug)
at this point, I was truly disappointed - because I hate this song - and my brain just scattered across the floor, wondering if it was a big mistake to get the tickets, sweat over the fact that the ticket never arrived, call various people to assure my admission, drive 3 hours up, get a hotel room, and the eventual 3 hour drive back home - just because I hated the song
Become You (Become You) - and all at once all was forgiven
Fill It Up Again (All That We Let In)
Driver Education (Poseidon and the Bitter Bug)
What Are You Like (Poseidon and the Bitter Bug)
Dairy Queen (All That We Let In)
Power of Two (Swamp Ophelia)
Ghost of the Gang (Poseidon and the Bitter Bug)
Fleet of Hope (Poseidon and the Bitter Bug)
Joking (Rites of Passage)
Get Out the Map (Shaming of the Sun)

-here, we got a story by Amy Ray of her missing dogs and her wonderful sheriff's office which helped find the dogs
It's Alright (Shaming of the Sun)
Yield (Become You)
Ghost (Rites of Passage)
Shame on You (Shaming of the Sun)
Southland in the Springtime (Nomads Indians Saints)
-here, I was really surprised - I thought this must have been a cover, since I _have_ all of their albums and had never heard this song. Thankfully I wrote down as many words as I could, and did frantic internet searching when I got back to the hotel room - only to find the song as one of two new songs on a greatest-hits-type album. Now I have a new temporary-favorite song, mostly because it was a complete surprise and it has a FABULOUS zydeco beat.
Closer to Fine (Indigo Girls) - they brought out the opening artist and allowed her the third verse and at some point during the song I took a picture when they gestured for the crowd to do the lead singing
Land of Canaan (1200 Curfews style)
Second Time Around (Poseidon and the Bitter Bug)
Galileo (Rites of Passage)
There's a strange dichotomy in my brain: trying to lower my expectations (this can't possibly be the BEST SHOW EVER because every show can't live up to that - so lower those silly expectations) and forgetting that it isn't about euphoria.. that it's about being a balm in Gilead.
