Shopee, Carousell most popular platforms used by phishing scammers
Taipei, March 12 (CNA) Shopee and Carousell, two online marketplaces based in Singapore, have been the two C2C platforms on which customers were most likely to fall victim to phishing scams in Taiwan over the past five weeks, the Criminal Investigation Bureau (CIB) said Sunday.
After analyzing information reported by the public on the 165 anti-fraud hotline, it was found that hackers have recently carried out phishing attacks on C2C ("consumer to consumer" or "customer to customer") online auction platforms such as Shopee and Carousell.
The attacks were aimed at stealing personal or business information used by customers to carry out online transactions, and the information was then used to conduct scams such as canceling installment payment setups, according to the CIB.
Since Shopee and Carousell are owned by companies in Singapore, they have only small staffs in Taiwan and have no professional information security team to assist people in protecting their accounts and passwords after being hacked.
The two online platforms have been referred to the Ministry of Digital Affairs (MODA) for investigation based on suspected violations of the Personal Data Protection Act.
Previously, the ministry had already conducted inspections of the two entities in December 2022 and asked the two platforms to make improvements, but no concrete actions were taken, according to the CIB.
In view of the high number of personal data breaches of major online shopping platforms in recent years, the CIB has regularly released the list of e-commerce platforms on which customers were at high risk of falling victim to fraud.
The CIB said fraud groups usually use hackers to steal people's transaction data (purchase time, product name, amount and payment method, etc.), and pose as customer service representatives of the companies concerned to trick shoppers into transferring money online or through an ATM to them.
The CIB said that from June 2022 to February 2023, it had sent notifications on up to 100 e-commerce companies suspected of leaking the personal data of customers to seven ministries, including the MODA, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Ministry of Culture.
However, only about 10 percent of those e-commerce companies were subject to inspections and required to make improvements. In addition, there was no record of any punishments in the past year, according to the CIB.
On the other hand, the number of fraud cases related to cancelation of installment payment agreements caused by personal information leaks reached nearly 1,000 in just two months, and the financial losses have exceeded NT$100 million (US$3.25 million), the CIB said.

If you care for an elderly, injured or special needs pet, you've come to the right place!
My 12 year old border collie has had diabeties for 2 + years; she became unstable after a illness and our new vet changed her insulin ... long story short went back to old vet and returned to same insulin and dossage she was orginally on.
The problem is that it has taken her a while to adjust to all the change and now her back leg appears dead; took her the vets who says it may be diabetic neuropathy (given her age, length of time as a diabetic and she has been uncontrolled for a period of time), a slip disc or rehumatics. Has given her anti inflamatories for over the weekend and going to have a fructosimine next week. Any ideas in any case ? and has anyone got a dog with neuropathy who can give me some tips. Thanks
You will also want to see the neuro bb; neuropathy can come from many causes, and quite a few critters have had it.
What are her signs? Does she need a cart (wheelchair)? Splints? If you include more info, people will be able to make suggestions.
Thanks for reply. She has been struggling to get up because one of her back legs does not seem to bend and she is unsteady and falls onto her bottom; but then other times she is able to get up no trouble. She has only had these symptoms days. She changed diet to a high fibre meal recently and is going the toilet alot which the vet thinks maybe down to neuropathy (due to the fact she had an accident in the vets office) but I am hoping it is just a case of changed diet and it being high in fibre.
She has always had some problems with her hips but not to this extent her leg appears to be fused into a straight position.
I will look at the other page as suggested and will know more tomorrow, hopefully, as going back to the vets.
My old dog with diabetes and neuropathy died last thursday. I did everything possible to prolong her life but sadly lost the battle. Her back legs went first, but they weren't fused into a straight position like you describe. She began by not sitting for a few months then her legs gave out. She would be given anti inflammatories and get slightly better for a few weeks or even months. In the end her paws began to knuckle under on one side first then the other. I would walk her with a towel for a while but in the end her back legs were completely dead and dragging behind. She was paralysed for around three months and then the front leg started knuckling under and making involutary movements. I read that neuropathy is very painful giving shooting pains they call zaps. She did exhibit signs of pain at times. I tried to obtain methyl cobalamina, which you should try. I live in Brazil and it is not available here. I ordered it from England but sadly the dog died and the medication still hasn't arrived. I did inject her with normal B12 up until she died and saw some slight improvements months ago. I wish you all the best in dealing with this difficult and heart breaking condition.
Oh, Jan, it sounds like you were doing full time care there at the end. Your dog was lucky to have someone to look after her like that. It is a job to constantly adjust to the changing needs, but brings you closer at the same time. I'm sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My dog, Chester is 13 and has been diabetic for 19 months. He's starting to lose function in his back legs. He has trouble getting up from sitting or lying down. Once he's up he walks very well.
I'm not sure if Chester's problem is Diabetic Neuropathy or Degenerative Myelopathy. I don't have the money to have him diagnosed.

There is no more stopping the triumphal advance of mobile robots in logistics. Logistics centers around the globe are employing a wide variety of mobile platform systems:AGVs, AGCs or AMRs. They load conveyor belts, sort, deliver or fetch something from its correct location. Not only for the market leaders, but also for smaller distribution centers. This comes as no surprise: Even a small autonomous fleet can help structure processes better, optimize material management and, last but not least, reduce costs. And using our sensor solutions you will always know exactly where they are located. Whether it be localization, movement monitoring or tracking – this gets your logistics moving.
Flexible logistics – the new logic of logistics
Flexibility is the new logic for logistics. Being flexible and able to respond quickly, and being adaptable is essential not only in production but also in logistics. Mobile robots are replacing stationary conveying equipment in this area and transporting goods from A to B. Mobile robots are also being used in logistics for fast and easy picking. Using localization solutions they move around freely and are always there where they are currently needed.
Thorough stock taking: Inventory in a warehouse
You can only transport something that is actually there. The current status of your inventory and the location of your goods is crucial information. We help you determine your current inventory down to the second using RFID technology. Complete and thorough stock taking – at any time.
Sorting robots: flexible systems on a conveyor belt
Sorting robots have become irreplaceable in logistics. And there appears to be no limits to their abilities and application possibilities. Being flexible systems, they can be used in different locations on the conveyor belt. They can therefore be docked where ever they are needed.
Transport from A to B: localization, navigation and mapping
Would you like to know at all times where the mobile robot is currently located and how it is moving about the room? To do so, you need to be able to reliably localize it so processes can continue to run without problems. And it is also essential for the overall planning of processes in production. Achieving a perfect interplay of the individual disciplines such as mapping, localization and navigation is the key objective in this.
Productivity, safety, and cost efficiency: the right safety solution for you
To achieve the optimal balance of productivity, safety, and cost efficiency, it is necessary to carry out a hazard analysis and risk assessment for each specific robot. The higher the risk to humans and infrastructure, the more stringent the requirements on the control system need to be. Based on the minimum requirements determined, each robot can be equipped with exactly the right sensor solution from our comprehensive safety portfolio.
Everything in motion: Challenges for mobility
Movement is challenging. Not only because it takes place in three-dimensional space, but also because it is necessary to cope with a large number of critical environment influences such as vibrations, impacts, contamination and the like. Varying light conditions, ambient conditions, and also constantly changing scenarios also present challenges for mobility.
Space in the mobile robot
Move along, please! To operate a mobile robot economically and efficiently, it is also important of course to consider its weight and size. Any excess ballast, taking into consideration its function and how mobile it is, must be avoided.
Maximum precision: correct docking
Precision is the key both for loading at docking stations and for assuming an allocated position in production, for example when approaching a roller conveyor. The faster the mobile robot can get in position, the more efficient the overall process.

Paper info: Picture this: Managed change and resistance in business network settings
Picture this: Managed change and resistance in business network settings
Hanne Kragh and PoulH Andersen
Place of Publication
The paper was published at the 24th IMP-conference in Uppsala, Sweden in 2008.
This paper discusses change management in networks. The literature on business networks tends to downplay the role of managerial initiative underlying the proactive attempts of single actors to install network changes. The change management literature addresses such managerial initiative, however, with its single firm perspective overlooks the interdependence of network actors and relationships. Taking departure in the void between these two streams of literature, we deploy the concept of network pictures to discuss how managers interpret change projects and attempt to manage change in network settings. We analyze a change project from the furniture industry involving multiple actors and address the consequences of attempting to manage change activities in a network context characterized by limited managerial authority over these activities. Our analysis suggests that change efforts rather than being projects mastered by the initiating actor unfold as a negotiated process during which the change project is re-negotiated to fit the multiple actor constituencies. The degree of overlap in the co-existing network pictures of the involved actors is found to be decisive for the possibility to successfully implement network change.

- The Internet Archive just dumped nearly 2,400 old MS-DOS video games into an easy-to-navigate repository. Every single one of the games is free to play in your browser. Some of the games are classics. Some of them are hilariously obscure. And some of them are porn—which is something you probably didn't realize existed on MS-DOS.

Hey, here is something that could be wonderfully entertaining or ultimately a huge bore. It may be how you view old MS-DOS games.

We have provided all the relevant information to your original investigating police officer and have raised a further case with 'Action Fraud' on your behalf in an attempt to get things resolved. I will email you this case number today.
We require the co-operation of the police in order to resolve the matter. Our own attempts to speak with the fraud team at the bank in question have led us nowhere due to their own data protection obligations.
I have reviewed the various audit trails connected to this case and am confident that there has not been a breach in our own security processes and procedures.
I can assure you, we are doing everything possible to help you.
Now THAT is a response!!
Tim - one question - in what way was the Data Protection Act brought into being to protect the "rights" of a criminal. i.e. the person with this other bank account.
That cannot be right?
Appreciate you are not the one apparently "stalling" this trail and would you name the other bank?
How soon did III contact the ban after the fraud? As this would have notified the bank that that something was wrong with this account and may have allowed the recovery of the money.

1. Did you believe that PGiii was not telling the truth and somehow involved in the fraud. If a customer raised a fraud case, I would expect III to contact the Bank in question soonest to verify PGiii claims. Data Protection should not get in the way of fraud prevention. If a customer raises a fraud case surely III would raise the case with Police since the theft was from your own systems.
2. If I were to open an account with III, what measures do you offer for fraud prevention as occurred to PGiii.
As a fellow investor, I will be following this thread with great interest in the New Year. I look forward to your response Tim.
Happy New Year, may 2013 be a joyous and rewarding year to one and all.

I still question how this can be classed as me being the victim of Fraud and not Interactive Investors systems failing me.
My single day withdrawal has never been anywhere close to £15000+, why was this not flagged on Interactive Investors systems, especially more dubious since bank details where changed on the same day.
Other than the bank account where the money was transferred to having the same name as mine, (eg. how many bank accounts are there in the name of “Mr JSmith” in the country) no one has provided any prove that shows this account was opened with my original id documentation. My electoral role registration has been the same for more than a decade now, which is the first basic check for a bank account.
If the bank which opened this account has failed to carry out the necessary checks, than that is something Interactive Investor needs to take up with them, not me.
To date no one from Interactive Inventor has provided any proof that this fraud was committed via my home computer or that I have been negligent in away with my accounts details.
Further, in no way do I accept that this was an inside job, committed by any member of my immediate family. (Happy to see them go to Jail, if I am proved wrong)
The criminals, who committed this theft, are obviously adept at opening false bank accounts. But they must also have had more than a causal understanding of Interactive Investors fraud prevention systems and working practices, to have committed this theft.
Finally, for me it boils down to :
“I have an account with Interactive Investor, from which £15000+ has been transferred to an account that is not mine and shares sold from it, without my involvement, knowledge or permission.”
All I am asking for is for Interactive Investor to rectify this. Since I have done nothing wrong other than have an online trading account with them for many years, like so many other Interactive Investors customers.
Read about a guy (Adam Pacitti) in today’s Evening Standard, who spent his last £500 on hiring an advertising hoarding in Shoreditch, in a plea for work.
I’ve been mulling the ideal of taking out an advert in a National Newspaper myself recently, but have no ideal how much it would cost.
Maybe an advertising hoarding is the way to go.
Any suggestions on a caption?.
First of all make sure your router (wireless or lan) is a new model - older models are not secure, new models are much more secure against hacking. People think a firewall can protect them but the first line of defense is a new up to date router with all the latest security features.
Second - forget "free" antivirus - they are not that good. Its worth paying for a antivirus product. I would suggest "Nod32" from Eset ( Antivirus Software and Internet Security Solutions :: ESET ).
Thirdly, make sure you also have some form at anti-spyware installed, regularly update it and at least once a fortnight do a full scan. Spybot Search and Destroy is good. ( Spybot - Search & Destroy from Safer Networking )
Fourthly, make sure you have a good Firewall installed. For this the Comodo Free Firewall is robust. ( Firewall - Personal Free Internet Firewall Software )
A new router will cost money as will antivirus, but firewall and spyware buster you can get for free.
Are you using a Wireless Network ? Have you set up WEP/WPA (password access) ? If not you need to do it. If you have then have you given the password to anyone else ? If other people can get on to your wifi then they can, if your system is not secure, get into your computer via your wireless network.
Its amazing how many people still use a wireless router "out of the box" and do not password protect it - or simply use the default settings. You should always log in to your router using the default password that comes with it and then change the admin password.
Else someone can easily log on to your wireless and access the router settings by using the default password and user name, which is normally "admin" and "admin".
There are lots of things to do to be safe and secure on line however most people do not do it and are not aware of it.
Securing Your Wireless Network | OnGuard Online
Perhaps III should implement a "Log on email alert" as many banks around the world now do.
Its very simple in that automatically the moment a user logs on to their account an email is sent to their registered email address that simply says "You have logged on to your account today at the time of xx:xx. If this was not you please contact us immediately"
This allows any customer to know instantly if someone is gaining access to their account.
This is very bad, you would think a financial organisation would have safe guards and that they would monitor your account activity and contact the account holder to confirm activity which is out of the norm. I don't understand why the organisation can't request details of the account to where the money was transferred (assuming there some law protecting the criminal).

Stock markets are set to finish the session firmly higher as dealers are optimistic about a recovery in the global economy.
The strong services data from China overnight set the tone for the session. The reading was the highest since 2010, which is incredible seeing as the country was on lockdown earlier this year. Sticking with the services theme, reports from eurozone economies and the UK all showed major improvements from the readings posted in April. Everyone knows the lockdowns have been brutal in terms of the global economy, but there is a feeling that things are moving in the right direction.
Wizz Air shares hit their highest level since late February on the back of the company’s strong full year figures. Underlying net profit came in at just under €345 million, which was a record level. Passenger growth increased by 16%, and the net profit margin was 12.5%. The airline started operating a small number of flights last month and as we get into holiday season, it will roll out further flights. Yesterday, easyJet launched its biggest ever summer sale, so competition will be tough. Wizz are in a healthy position in terms of liquidity as its total cash balance stands at €1.49 billion, and the airline was quick to remind the market that it has one of the strongest balance sheets in the business, hence why the stock has hit a multi-month high today.
C&C shares are also in demand as the company posted decent annual numbers. Revenue rose by 7.8% to €1.7 billion, while operating profit jumped by over 10% to €116.4 million. The drinks company has seen its revenue stream from trade – pubs, bars and hotels dry up since March. The shutting down of the hospitality sector will continue to be painful for C&C, but the group has sufficient liquidity. Its leverage position has fallen by over 29%, and in an effort to conserve cash it didn’t pay a final dividend. Normally in this time of year, beer gardens across Ireland and the UK would be packed with people socialising, some enjoying C&C’s Magners cider, but it is likely to be months before we could see pubs reopen. In the current environment, having the cash to stay in the game is what dealers are looking out for, so its prospects are still relatively optimistic.
Chemring shares are flying high today as the company maintained its full year guidance – something that few firms are doing these days. The group provides services and products to the defence and aerospace industry. All of its businesses have managed to remain open despite the chaos caused by the lockdown – once again, not many firms can boast such a claim. First half underlying profit before tax surged by 144% to £24.2 million.
Sentiment is bullish on Wall Street as dealers are optimistic about the reopening of the US economy. There is a growing feeling that we are over the worse of the economic pain caused by the pandemic. The US ADP employment reading showed that 2.76 million jobs were lost in May, which is a shocking reading, but economists were expecting a decline of 9 million jobs. The April reading was revised to -19.55 million, from -20.2 million. The fact that last months reading was only a fraction of the April update, could be an early sign that we have moved past the most painful point. The US services PMI report and the non-manufacturing ISM reading were 37.5 and 45.4 respectively, and both readings were higher than the April levels. When you factor in the improvements in the US services data it shows the US economy is in a less awful state.
Zoom revealed impressive first quarter figures. Revenue was $328.2 million, which was a 169% increase when compared with the same period last year, and keep in mind that dealers were expecting $202.7 million. The EPS came in at 20 cents, easily exceeding the 9 cents forecast. Not only did the group comfortably top the high expectations that equity analysts had in place, the company issued a very bullish full year outlook too. EPS are now tipped to be $1.21-$1.29, while the upper end of the old guidance was 45 cents. Revenue is now anticipated to be in the region of $1.78-$1.8 billion, and that is nearly double the previous forecast. The stock hit a new record high.
Lyft shares are up on the day as the company reported that rides in May increased by 26% when compared with April’s figure – which was awful on account of the lockdown.
Continued weakness in the greenback has pushed up GBP/USD and EUR/USD. The services sectors of the major eurozone economies are still in deep contraction, but they are in a far better position now than they were in April, so that is a factor too in the euro’s move. The UK services PMI report for May was 29, and that is a shocking reading, but it was a massive increase on the 13.4 posted in April.
USD/CAD is in the red as the Bank of Canada kept interest rates on hold at 0.25%, meeting forecasts. The ‘loonie’ is still firmer versus the US dollar despite the recent move lower in oil. The energy tends to be a big influence on the Canadian dollar and oil’s strength in the past few weeks has helped the currency.
Gold is lower today as traders are turning their backs on assets that are deemed to be lower risk, such as gold. The rally in global stock markets is a clear sign that dealers are in risk-on mode, so it is hardly surprising the metal is in the red. A weaker US dollar would normally assist gold, but that is not the case today so it highlights the bearish sentiment surrounding the commodity.
Oil is a little lower this afternoon after Saudi Arabia and Russia agreed a preliminary production cut. It is understood the current output levels will remain in place until the end of July but that needs to be approved from other members of OPEC+. Before the announcement, there was speculation the existing output levels would be kept in place for many months. The EIA report showed that US oil stockpiles fell by over 2 million barrels, while traders were expecting a build of over 3 million barrels.

The latest case of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) involved another commercial meat turkey flock in Minnesota.
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) announced on its website that the case was in Otter Tail County, and involved 30,000 birds.
This marks the seventh case of HPAI in Otter Tail County. Of the previous six cases, five involved commercial meat turkeys, while the other was a flock of turkey breeder hens. This is the county’s first confirmed case since September 19.
It also marks the 78th case of HPAI to be confirmed in commercial poultry Minnesota, which has by far had the most commercial poultry flocks affected by HPAI in when compared to other states. South Dakota ranks second with 44 cases commercial poultry.
So far in 2022, an estimated head of 3,812,052 commercial poultry have been lost to the avian influenza outbreak. Only Iowa, Nebraska, Pennsylvania and Colorado have lost more birds.
So far in 2022, the following Minnesota counties have had commercial poultry flocks affected by HPAI: Stearns, Swift, Le Sueur, Otter Tail, Roseau, Brown, Meeker, Becker, Morrison, Dakota, Kandiyohi, Lyon, Yellow Medicine, Todd, Blue Earth, Waseca, Renville, Dodge and Lac Qui Parle.

“This should never have happened. I can’t justify it. Unfortunately these mistakes were self inflicted,” Dimon said at the annual meeting Tampa, Fla., according to CNNMoney.
Dimon told shareholders the firm is in favor of stronger financial regulation, The Associated Press reported. He also noted that the error “never should have happened” and promised that “all corrective actions” will be taken, according to the Wall Street Journal.
At the meeting, shareholders endorsed Dimon’s pay package of $23 million and voted for him to keep his title as chairman, the AP reported. Most of the ballots were cast before Thursday’s revelation that the bank lost $2 billion. There had been some talk before the meeting that that shareholders might try to strip him of the chairman’s title he holds in addition to being JP Morgan’s CEO.
And Tuesday, ABC’s “The View” aired an interview with President Barack Obama, who called JPMorgan “one of the best-managed banks there is.”
“Jamie Dimon, the head of it, is one of the smartest bankers we got, and they still lost $2 billion and counting,” the president said as he pushed for stronger financial regulations.
Meanwhile, the Dept. of Justice has opened an inquiry into JPMorgan’s trading loss, the WSJ reported Tuesday, citing a person familiar with the matter. The investigation is at an early stage, the WSJ wrote.

We have had a crazy busy weekend.One of our granddaughter’s had a birthday, we worked around the house and in the yard, and we had one other very special thing occupying a lot of our time this weekend ( I’ll be blogging about it on Friday). Although the weather wasn’t very warm ( fine by me) we enjoyed some refreshing lemonade.The eazy peazy recipe is below.
If you visit my corner of the blog world regularly you know I love the flavor of lemons. I have shared lemon recipes with you recently lemon cake and in the past, lemon cupcakes and a lemon drip cake.

1 Quart water
1 3/4 Cups Splenda ( or sugar)

The folks behind Clevr are definitely on to something. I love my morning coffee, but let’s be honest, I only dig it for the caffeine boost that gives me the will to get ready for the day. However, Clevr has crafted together a magical blend of beverages from organic coffee, chai, matcha, turmeric with mushrooms, probiotics and adaptogen herbs such as Ashwagandha to make beverage time have a purpose.
This California Woman owned business also sources regenerative cocoa and obtains their coffee from a small co-operative in Colombia. They also pay their workers a higher than average wage, so it’s a product that I can totally get behind as well!
I brought a bag of the Coffee Superlatte on a recent camping trip and it was such a treat in the morning! It was flavorful like I would expect a blended coffee drink to be, but rich from the vegan creamer.
After enjoying a cup on the peaceful farm, we decided to go on a big hike. Unlike other days, I had zero crash after my hike and felt really good!
Added adaptogens make SO much sense, especially as a morning beverage. Adaptogens have been shown to lift moods, clear minds and I know my digestive system appreciates the bonus probiotics to keep my system on track.
This beverage mix is amazing warm, or cold with ice for an afternoon treat. They also make other fun and creative drink mixes, all touting their own unique benefits.
- Rose Cacao SuperLatte is the fanciest healthy cocoa beverage ever with Stress-soothing organic rose petals and Dopamine-boosting mucuna.
- Golden SuperLatte single-farm turmeric, blended with organic spices, oat milk and coconut cream offers comfort and calmness.
- Matcha SuperLatte offers zen-like focus with organic shade-grown matcha blended with oat milk and coconut cream, powered by adaptogens, mushrooms + probiotics, naturally sweetened with monk fruit.


If everything goes to schedule, the Samsung Galaxy S22 series of phones should be the first flagships we see in 2022 – and a new leak gives us some clues as to the chipsets that are going to be powering these phones.
Reputable tipster Max Weinbach (opens in new tab) says that all three models – the Galaxy S22, the Galaxy S22 Plus and the Galaxy S22 Ultra – are going to come with either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 898 or the Samsung Exynos 2200 chipset, depending on where in the world they're being sold.
Don't worry if those names sound unfamiliar – neither the Qualcomm nor the Samsung processor has been announced yet – but those specs are pretty much what we would expect for the Galaxy S22, given previous models in the series.
oh yeah s22, s22+, s22 ultra is gonna have an exynos 2200 and a snapdragon 898 versionfound it a few weeks agoOctober 22, 2021
- Get ready for the GTA Trilogy remaster
- Galaxy Tab S8 renders leak out
- Intel graphics cards are coming in 2022
What we know so far
We're starting to get a much clearer picture of what the Galaxy S22 phones are going to offer when Samsung unveils them. Based on leaked renders, it looks as though the Ultra model is going to look substantially different to the other two Galaxy S22 handsets.
Screens with 120Hz refresh rates are likely to be standard across the board, with the S22 and S22 Plus having slightly smaller screens than last time (6.06 inches and 6.55 inches) and the S22 Ultra having a bigger one (6.81 inches) compared to its predecessor.
As for when we're actually going to see these phones, that's a matter of some contention: it was thought that there would be a launch in January 2022, a year after the Galaxy S21 devices appeared, but the latest rumors suggest the S22 series will be pushed back.
Analysis: a tale of two chipsets
If you're new to the Galaxy S series then having the same phone available with two different processors might seem strange – but it's been par for the course in recent years as Samsung manages its gadget production and supply chains across the globe.
The Galaxy S21 phones came with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 CPU in the US and China, and a Samsung Exynos 2100 CPU everywhere else, for example. That Samsung would do the same again this year has been predicted before, so this latest leak isn't really going to raise any eyebrows.
It's an unusual strategy, but a sensible one, considering the ongoing global chip shortage that's restricting electronics production at the moment. Indeed, supply chain pressures are rumored to be forcing Samsung to make the Snapdragon version of its Galaxy flagships available in more regions this time around.
The question most people have is how performance will be affected. Traditionally, the Exynos and Snapdragon models of these phones are pretty similar in terms of power, so we're hoping Samsung pulls off the same trick again in 2022.

Abstract: Religious liberty has become much more controversial in recent years. A principal reason is deep disagreements over sexual morality. On abortion, contraception, gay rights, and same-sex marriage, conservative religious leaders condemn as grave evils what many other Americans view as fundamental human rights. Somewhat hidden in the battles over permitting abortion and recognizing same-sex marriage lie religious liberty issues about exempting conscientious objectors from facilitating abortions or same-sex marriages. Banning contraception is no longer a live issue; there, religious liberty is the principal issue. These issues arise in academia as well as in the larger society.
These culture-war issues are turning many Americans toward a very narrow understanding of religious liberty, and generating arguments that threaten religious liberty more generally. Persistent Catholic opposition to the French Revolution permanently turned France to a very narrow view of religious liberty; persistent religious opposition to the Sexual Revolution may be having similar consequences here.
We can and should protect the liberty of both sides in the culture wars. Conservative churches would do well to concede the liberty of the other side, including on same-sex marriage, and concentrate on defending their own liberty as conscientious objectors; and similarly, supporters of rights to abortion, contraception, gay rights, and same-sex marriage would do well to concentrate on securing their own rights and to concede that conscientious objectors should rarely be required to support or facilitate practices they view as evil. But inducing either side to accept such live-and-let-live solutions seems to be a hopeless task.

Some times it can be difficult for me to get the right look of a dish in a photo. I have used extra butter for a more glossy look, swapped corn starch for flour in sauces for the same reason, even once went so far as to use a fine water mister/spray. It seems that by the time I get around to taking the photo the freshness of the dish does not translate to the camera (though the meal is still great to eat). Is there a method for this, whilst still being able to eat the food afterwards, and not change the basic ethos of the recipe. So, the question is: How do I make dishes more glossy without changing the recipe too much?
Found some great ideas here from the BBC, but still do not want to 'brush' oil over meat which I then intend upon eating.

2 brown onions, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, crushed
100 g Swiss brown mushrooms, sliced
100 g kale, inner core removed, finely chopped
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
2 gluten-free pizza base
½ small red capsicum, cut into thin strips
60 g reduced-fat grated cheese
35 g rocket leaves
10 g Parmesan shavings
- Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan on medium heat. Add the onions and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 10 minutes or until onion is very soft. Add mushrooms and kale. Continue cooking for 5-10 minutes or until kale is soft. Stir in the vinegar and then transfer to plate. Set aside for 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 210°C (fanforced). Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Put bread on trays and spread with onion mix. Top with capsicum and grated cheese. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cheese melts and base is crisp.

SHANGHAI, Mar. 13 (SMM) - Steelease sources report that Liuzhou Iron & Steel has suspended the other two wire rod production lines for two weeks after conducting maintenance at a rebar production line in early-to-mid February. That means three of the six rebar and wire rod production lines of Liuzhou Iron & Steel have been suspended. The steel mill will decided when to restart based on market prices. Due to raw material insufficiency and lower profits of building steel compared to hot rolling and medium steel plate, the production lines will not be restarted in the near term. But once profits are favorable, Liuzhou Iron & Steel will adjust production plans. Liuzhou Iron & Steel requests distributors to sell second grade rebar above RMB 3,800/mt, but rebar is actually unsellable now. Second grade rebar prices Nanning and Liuzhou are now RMB 3,720-3,740/mt, but transactions are still quiet.
Liuzhou Iron & Steel sold 20,000 mt of hot rolling this week, up 5,000 mt from the previous week. But the company also reported trader buying interest for hot rolling decreased despite high prices, so the sales department of the company advised to adjust ex-works prices, but has not been approved yet.

 This invention relates to an apparatus for loading cargo containers and flat racks off of the bed of a truck and onto a trailer using a hook lift system located on the truck.
 Containers are used extensively to ship cargo by ship, rail and truck and a container can be transported on all three modes in a single trip. At large loading facilities the containers are loaded onto and off of the ships, railcars or trucks with large cranes. However, it often is desirable to load or unload a container from a truck at a smaller facility that does not have a crane. In order to accomplish this the trucks are equipped with a hook lift system that clamps to the front of the container. The hook lift system uses a series of levers and hydraulic cylinders to raise the front end of the container, which rotates the container about a rotary slide located at the rear of the truck that carries the container. The hook lift system then pushes the container rearwardly until its lower edge rests on the ground, as shown in FIG. 21. The weight of the container then causes the truck to roll forward until it is free of the container. The hook lift system then sets the front end of the container on the ground. The hook lift system loads the container from the ground onto a truck in essentially the reverse manner.
 Flat racks are used to carry a load that is to be placed in a container when it is desired to remove the load from the container but not disassemble it. At times these flat racks are transported outside of the container and they can be loaded onto and off of a truck using the hook lift system on the truck.
 The hook lift system is also used to load a container or flat rack onto a trailer. To accomplish this the container or flat rack is first loaded onto the truck and then unloaded from the truck onto the trailer. The problem with this is that unless the bed of the trailer is perfectly lined up longitudinally with the bed of the truck, the container or flat rack will not be centered on the trailer or will be cocked relative to the center line of the trailer. In addition, the rear end of the container or flat rack must be slid across the entire length of the trailer with metal to metal contact.
 The subject invention provides an apparatus for using the hook lift system for unloading a container or flat rack from a truck and placing it on a trailer, and vice versa, without having to slide the lower rear edge of the container across the entire trailer bed. The apparatus also ensures that the container or flat rack is centered squarely on the trailer. A carriage, having a cradle which is configured to releasably receive a cross member located at the lower rear edge of a container, travels along the entire longitudinal extent of the trailer on a track system located on the trailer. The carriage also has a receptacle which releasably receives wheels which are located at the rear of some flat racks. A support stand located on the carriage releasably receives the rear edge of a flat rack that does not have wheels. In one preferred embodiment of the invention there are guides which center the container on the cradle as its rear end is being loaded onto the cradle. In another preferred embodiment there are releasable locks which secure the front and rear of the container to the trailer.
 The foregoing and other objectives, features, and advantages of the invention will be more readily understood upon consideration of the following detailed description of the invention, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

 Referring now to FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawings, a truck trailer 10 has two I-beams 12 which extend along its entire longitudinal extent. One beam 12 is located approximately midway between the longitudinal center line of the trailer and each side. Located at each side of the trailer is an inwardly facing C-shaped channel 14. This structure is typical of trailers of this type, but the I-beams 12 and C channels 14 may vary somewhat from those illustrated. Referring now also to FIGS. 3, 6 and 7, the beams 12 and channels 14 together act as a track system upon which a carriage 16 travels along the trailer between a receiving position at the front of the trailer, FIG. 18, and a loaded position at the rear of the trailer, FIG. 20. The carriage is supported by a plurality of rollers 18 which ride on the top flanges 20 of the beams 12. Located at each side of the carriage are guide plates 22 which extend downwardly along the sides of the channels 14. Inwardly extending tabs 24 at the front of the side plates engage the bottoms of the channels 14, FIG. 12. The guide plates and tabs keep the carriage centered transversely on the trailer and prevent cocking of the carriage as it moves.
 A cradle 26 is located on the carriage 16. The cradle 26 is configured to receive the cross member 28, FIG. 12, which is located at the lower rear edge of a container 30. In the embodiment illustrated the cradle is a plurality of flat pads 32 which are located side-by-side transversely across the center portion of the carriage. Referring now also to FIG. 6A, located in front of the two center pads are return assist assemblies 34. Each return assist assembly includes a U-shaped support 35 which extends upwardly from the carriage. The support has a flat top plate 36. The support is rotatably attached to the carriage through a hinge 37 which allows the support to be rotated forwardly to a break-away position, shown in dashed lines in FIG. 6A. Springs 38 bias the support plate 35 toward its normal upright position, as shown in solid line in FIG. 6A.
 Rotatably mounted in the support 35 is an arm 39. The arm 39 is movable between a raised position, shown in FIG. 6A, and a lowered position where the rear edge 40 of the arm contacts the front edge of the pad 32. The arm 39 has a contact surface 40 which slopes forwardly and upwardly from the pad. A spring 42 normally biases the arm 39 to its raised position. The return assist assembly facilitates inserting the container rear cross member 28 on the pads 32 and removing the container from the carriage even though the loading and unloading characteristics of the container differ depending on how heavily it is loaded, as will be more fully explained later.
 The cradle also includes a pair of side positioning blocks 48 which are located on each side of the carriage outwardly of the outermost pads. The side positioning devices are separated from one another by a distance equal to the width of the container and have outwardly and downwardly sloping surfaces 50 which contact the inside surfaces of the longitudinal side frame members of the containers. Thus, the positioning devices center the rear edge of the container on the cradle. Located at the rear end of the trailer are a pair of rear locking devices 52. The rear locking devices have pins 54 which can be moved to either an extended position where they fit into openings 56, FIG. 22, located at the rear of the container or a retracted position where they are free of the container. The rear positioning devices prevent the container from moving from side to side or rearwardly once it is loaded on the trailer.
 Located at the front end of the trailer are a pair of front locking devices 58 having upwardly projecting pins 60 which extend into two openings 59 located at the front end of the container when the container is fully loaded on the trailer. The pins 60 have rotating tips 62 which lock the container onto the pins. Handles 64 rotate the tips 62 between their locked and unlocked positions.
 Referring now to FIGS. 2, 4 and 5, a plurality of carriage return mechanisms 66 are located at the front of the trailer to return the carriage completely to its receiving position when a container or flat rack is removed from it and to hold the carriage in its receiving position when the rear end of the container or flat rack is being loaded onto it. Each carriage return mechanism includes a socket 68 which is attached to the trailer frame and is rotatable about an axis 70. A pin 72 which fits into the socket can slide inwardly and outwardly and is biased outwardly by a spring 74. When the carriage is fully in its receiving position the socket is rotated forwardly to the position shown in solid line in FIG. 5, and the pin 72 fits into a U-shaped receptacle 76 mounted on the bottom of the carriage. The spring is compressed and holds the carriage in its receiving position. As the carriage moves rearwardly, the socket 68 is rotated about the axis 70 until it is in the position shown in dashed lines in FIG. 5 and the carriage pulls free from the carriage return mechanism. When the carriage is returned to its receiving position the receptacle engages the pin 72 as the carriage approaches and the spring 74 is compressed until the socket is rotated past vertical. The spring then urges the carriage forwardly to its receiving position.
 In operation a container 30 is unloaded from a truck 78 having a hook lift system 80 onto a trailer 10 by using the hook lift system to raise the front of the container and move the container rearwardly on the pivoting slide 82 located at the rear of the truck, FIG. 18. The carriage is configured such that as the lower rear edge of the container reaches the trailer, the container rear cross member 28 strikes the vertical legs 46 of the stops 44 which causes it to drop onto the pads 32. Before the container reaches the stops 44 it contacts the arms 39 of the return assist assemblies 34 and moves them to their lowered positions. The sloped contact surfaces 40 of the arms 39 help guide the container cross member onto the pads. As the rear end of the container drops into the carriage the sloped surfaces 50 of the side positioning blocks engage the inside of the container frame and center the container on the carriage. The carriage return mechanism 66 prevents the carriage from moving rearwardly on the trailer as this is occurring. Once the rear edge of the container has dropped into the carriage the carriage carries the container as it moves rearwardly on the trailer upon further extension of the hook lift system 80, FIG. 19. Since the carriage is supporting the rear edge of the container the container remains centered on the trailer and does not drag along the upper surface of the trailer as this occurs.
 As the carriage moves rearwardly the sockets 68 of the carriage return mechanism 66 rotate to the dashed line position shown in FIG. 5 and the pins 72 pull out of the receptacle 76. When the container fully reaches the back of the trailer the hook lift system sets the front of the container onto the trailer and the front locking devices 58 fit into the holes at the front of the container. The hook lifting system is then disconnected from the container and retracted onto the truck, FIG. 20. The front and rear locking devices are then engaged to secure the container on the trailer.
 A container is removed from the trailer and loaded onto the truck by reversing the foregoing procedure. If the container is lightly loaded its angle may be such that it wants to pull free of the cradle before the carriage has returned to where the carriage return mechanisms 66 are activated. In this event, the container rear cross member sliding up the sloped contact surfaces 40 of the arms 39 will ensure that the carriage is far enough forward to engage the carriage return mechanisms before the container is lifted off the carriage. The hinge 37 allows the support 35 to rotate forwardly and release the container if it remains on the contact surface once the carriage is at its forward most position. As the carriage approaches its unloading position the pins 72 of the carriage return mechanisms engage the receptacle 76, and further movement of the carriage causes the sockets to be rotated to their solid line position shown in FIG. 5, and the carriage return mechanism holds the carriage in the loaded position after the container is removed from it.
 A flat rack 84 is loaded onto the trailer 10 in much the same manner as the container 30. If the flat rack has wheels 86 at its rear end they fit into a pair of receptacles 88 located on the carriage 16, FIG. 9. Each receptacle 88 includes a pad 90 which supports the wheel 86, a rear stop 92, which contacts the rear side of the wheel, and a front stop 94, which contacts the front side of the wheel. The rear stop has a vertical face 96 and the front stop has a vertical face 98.
 If the flat rack does not have wheels a fixture 100 needs to be provided to receive and support the rear edge of the flat rack when it is loaded on the carriage. The fixture has the same shape as the channel segments 32 except that it is longer. In a first embodiment shown in FIGS. 14 and 15 the fixture 100 is rotatably carried on mounts 102 located at the front of the carriage. This allows the fixture to be placed in either a raised position, FIG. 14, where it supports the flat rack, or a lowered position, FIG. 15, where it does not interfere with containers and flat racks having wheels. In another embodiment, shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the fixture 100 fits into bosses 104 located at the front of the carriage when in use, and in bosses 106 located at the rear of the carriage when not in use.
 Referring now to FIGS. 13, 16 and 17 the flat racks are locked on the trailer using locks 108. The locks 108 are similar to the rear locking devices 52 and have pins 110 which fit into holes (not shown) located in a frame element 112 of the flat rack 84. The locks 108 are mounted on the beams 12 of the trailer. The locks 108 pivot on a hinge 114 between a raised position, FIG. 16, where the pins 110 fit into the holes in the flat rack frame, and a lowered position, FIG. 17, where the locks are located below the beam 12 and will not interfere with the carriage 16. Bars 116 fit into a slot 118 to hold the locks 108 in their raised position.
 The terms and expressions which have been employed in the foregoing specification are used therein as terms of description and not of limitation, and there is no intention, in the use of such terms and expressions, of excluding equivalents of the features shown and described or portions thereof, it being recognized that the scope of the invention is defined and limited only by the claims which follow.

We’re commonly asked about industry standard editing and proofreading rates. The answer is that rates can very widely and there is no standardization (until EditorNinja came along that is!).
That said, the EFA put together a survey in 2020 with average and ranges of rates across various types of editing include copy editing and proofreading.
Looking for on-demand copy editing and proofreading services for one affordable monthly price? Schedule a free editorial assessment.
Copy editing rates
|Copyediting||Median Rate Per Hour||Median Rate Per Word||Median Pace Of Work|
|Copyediting, fiction||$36-40/hr||$.02-.029/wd||7-10 pages/hr|
|Copyediting, nonfiction||$41–$45/hr||$.03–$.039/wd||4–6 pages/hr|
|Copyediting, business/sales||$46–$50/hr||$.04–$.049/wd||4–6 pages/hr|

|Proofreading, medical/STEM||$41–$45/hr||$.03–$.039/wd||4–6 pages/hr|
How much does it cost to edit 1,000 words?
With a median per-hour rate of $35 per hour, and the average editor copy editing and proofreading 2,000 words per hour, it costs about $17 to have 1,000 words edited and proofread. This is industry average of course, with more senior editors (who can edit faster) charging more and less experienced editors taking longer, and so costs may vary by a few dollars per hour on either end.
For the purposes of the EFA survey and this chart, a page was defined as 250 words, the industry standard for a manuscript page.

Find a Bench
There are three ways to find your way to a bench.
1) You can see the range of benches available for purchase through our website.
3) Or find a free bench! Every now and then, I drive around the Bay area and “release” benches into the wild: at bus stops, in parks, at the library, in a tree, wherever. As I release the benches, I photograph them and send out the location information via Twitter. If you happen to be nearby, get out there and pick it up. If not, don’t worry, I will also release a few free online, all you have to pay is the shipping. Check my Etsy Shop to see if any are available.
Every bench I sell helps me to buy material to build more free benches, so the more I sell, the more I can release, and the more people who find benches, the more people will try meditating, and the more people meditate, the more peaceful the world will be and… there I go again. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out…
