Weather of Arabia - On February 22, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia celebrates the country’s founding day, which dates back to the day the state was founded by Imam Muhammad bin Saud in the year 1139 AH / 1727 AD. This day is an opportunity to celebrate the great nation-building process that began in the ancient capital, Diriyah, three centuries ago.
The Foundation Day announcement shows the historical depth of the Saudi royal family, as the Saudi family has a history that extends for about 600 years, starting with the founding of the city of Diriyah by Mani’ Al-Muraydi, the thirteenth grandfather of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz.
Speaking of the Founding Day, we must remember the biography of the founding Imam, who had insightful vision and exceptional wisdom. He studied the conditions in his emirate and the region in general, and began planning for change since he assumed power.
The founding imam established a new path in the history of the region, focusing on unity, education, spreading culture, enhancing communication between members of society, in addition to maintaining security and stability. He also had a love for contemplation and thinking, and this indicates his distinguished personality in extrapolation, deliberation, and refining the future vision.
Imam Muhammad bin Saud bin Muhammad bin Muqrin was born in 1090 AH / 1679 AD in Diriyah, and grew up in this town. He had many characteristics that distinguished his personality, including religiosity, love of goodness, courage, and the ability to influence.
The Imam benefited from his experience in his youth when he worked alongside his father in arranging the affairs of the emirate, which gave him the opportunity to obtain full knowledge of all aspects of life in Diriyah. The Imam also participated in defending Diriyah when it was attacked by Saadoun bin Muhammad, the leader of Bani Khalid in Al-Ahsa, and they succeeded in repelling and defeating them, which demonstrated their courage and strength in defending their land.
Imam Muhammad bin Saud is considered an extension of the history of his predecessors who built and ruled Diriyah, as he succeeded in transforming it from a small state to a state with wide influence, and he assumed power in exceptional circumstances in the middle of the year 1139 AH (February 1727 AD). Diriyah suffered from weakness and divisions due to several reasons, in addition to the spread of the plague in the Arabian Peninsula during that period, which led to the death of large numbers of the population.
Despite these challenges, Imam Muhammad bin Saud succeeded in unifying Diriyah, achieving stability in the Al-Arid region, and building the foundations for the first Saudi state and its unification. Among his most notable achievements during his rule between the years 1139 AH / 1158 AH (1727 AD / 1745 AD) was the unification of the two parts of Diriyah and their integration under one rule after the authority was divided between two centers, as well as interest in internal affairs, strengthening the unity of Diriyah society, and organizing the economic affairs of the state.
In addition, Imam Muhammad bin Saud built a new neighborhood in Samhan known as the Tarfiya neighborhood, where he moved to after Ghasiba had been the center of government for a long time. He also built a wall for Diriyah to strengthen defense and confront external attacks coming from eastern Arabia.
Imam Muhammad bin Saud also contributed to spreading stability in the state across various fields, and enshrined the principles of stability, political independence, and non-commitment to any other forces, which contributed to strengthening the state’s unity and stability in the face of internal and external challenges.
During the period from 1159 to 1179 AH (1746 to 1765 AD), Imam Muhammad bin Saud began and led unification campaigns, during which most of the Najd region was unified, and news of the state spread throughout the Arabian Peninsula.
These campaigns contributed to securing the Hajj and trade routes, which made Najd a safe and stable region, in addition to its success in repelling the campaigns that tried to eliminate the state in its early stages.
Imam Muhammad bin Saud died in 1179 AH (1765 AD) after leadership and establishment that lasted for forty years. He had a number of sons, including: Abdul Aziz, Abdullah, Saud, Faisal, Ali, Markhan, and daughters Haya and Tarfa.

One of my favorite stories that I have covered on the blog is the one of big, OTTB Joey. Caroline took in Joey when he was a scrawny, skeleton of a horse, covered with rain rot, with horrible feet.
Long story short-Caroline fattened him up, got him in shape, fixed his hooves and moved him on to a new owner. Then Joey disappeared (we are unclear about exactly how he ended up like he did). I was contacted on my blog when his “new” owner was searching for his history. His new owner did not want Joey and all his OTTB issues. Caroline agreed to take him back to her home.
It took awhile and some maneuvering (and the help of friends to trailer him home) but Caroline finally started to get her Joey back. This weekend I saw Joey for the first time in months. His weight was back to normal, his eyes were bright, his coat glistened in the sun. What a tremendous recovery he has made. Nice to see the good guys win a round! Caroline, Bravo!
On to my little kitten that Lauren and I found a few months back in the pouring rain, spewing poop constantly. It took a lot of trips to the vet, lots of tests, two prescriptions and some prayerful nights to get little Levi back to health. He has certainly grown up since being a pitiful little Kitty.
Levi has huge paws. He is getting along great with most of the dogs. PuppyGirl is still best friends with him! He is a funny cat and loves to play in water. Levi will get in the water bowl, splash all the water out and go back for more. He is also very neat and tries to keep his litterbox very clean.
Clearly, Levi is a well nourished kitten. From giving him three more days to live in October, Levi has made a huge turn around. Certainly, appears to be happy to be part of Granny’s farm!

It is alleged that some National Democratic Congress (NDC) functionaries are ready to pay as much ten thousand Ghana Cedis to each Assembly member in four districts of the Ashanti Region to reject the president’s nominees as DCEs for these areas.
The ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) claim to have picked intelligence that detractors of government who are members of NDC are bent on plotting to pay the said amount as bribes to Assembly members of Ejura Sekyereduamase, Drobonso and New Edubiase all in Ashanti Region just to ensure the President’s nominees for the positions are rejected.
NPP communicators earlier accused the NDC Member of Parliament (MP) for Asawase in the region of orchestrating the rejection of one Alhaji Alidu Seidu to become MCE for Asokore Manpong Municipal Assembly.
According to NPP communicator Raphel Sarfo, prior to the rejection of Alhaji Alidu Seidu by Assembly members, NDC communicators in the region predicted the outcome of the election on their facebook walls.
He said the rejection of the nominee did not surprise them since they earlier picked signals Mohammed Muntaka Mubarak allegedly influenced some members to his side to vote against the nominee.
“Musa Abattoir posted they have eight members on their side and Alidu Seidu will get only seven. After the election, the results confirmed it.”
The NPP communicator said fresh information available to the party has it that the NDC General Secretary, Johnson Aseidu Nketiah and Mohammed Muntaka Mubarak are allegedly orchestrating another defeat for the remaining districts believed to be their strongholds.
Raphel Sarfo, a strong authority in the party also revealed that some NPP members who were denied the opportunity to be nominated as MMDCEs are doing everything humanly possible to ensure the nominees are not mandated by the assembly members
“Some of our own party members are also paying loosing bonuses so that if a nominee is rejected they will have the opportunity to come”. He alleged
He therefore threatened to name and shame them as the party plans to gather enough information on their activities which is inimical to the party and the President’s dream to bring development to the people.

Nanoelectronics the term is the use of nanotechnology on electronic components, mainly transistors. Nanoelectronics often refer to transistor devices that are so small that inter-atomic interactions and quantum mechanical properties need to be studied extensively.
Nanoelectronics plays a major role in making computer processors more powerful than are possible with conventional semiconductor fabrication techniques. A number of approaches are currently being researched, including new forms of nanolithography, as well as the use of nanomaterials such as nanowires or small molecules in place of traditional CMOS components. Field effect transistors have been made using both semiconducting carbon nanotubes and with heterostructured semiconductor nanowires
The characteristics on computer chips are getting small, soon the process used to make them, which has hardly changed in the last 50 years, won’t work anymore. One of the alternatives that academic researchers have been exploring is to create tiny circuits using molecules that automatically arrange themselves into useful patterns.
Nanotechnology, already reached the electronics industry with features in microprocessors now less than 100 nanometres (nm) in size (Intel’s Prescott processor uses 90 nm size features). Smaller sizes allow faster processing times and also more processing power. However, these advances are really only a continuation of existing microelectronics, and will reach their limit sometime around the end of the next decade (2018 or so) when it will be both physically impossible to “write” or “etch” smaller features in silicon, and also because at extremely small sizes (less than 20 nm) silicon becomes electrically “leaky” causing short circuits.
Nanoelectronics on the other hand offer a new approach for the electronics industry in the form of new circuit materials, processors, information storage and even ways of transferring information such as optoelectronics.
MEMS: micro information seekers
Micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) combines computer with tiny mechanical devices such as sensors, valves, gears, and actuators embedded in semiconductor chips. These elements are embedded in the mainframe of the system for carrying out the bigger task. As the elements are capable of carrying out the tasks, they are usually referred to as ‘smart matter’. Minute computers ‘smart dust’ is the brainchild of assistant professor Kris pister. Mr. Pister termed it as ‘motes’. Motes are wireless computers small enough to be integrated into anything to create robust wireless network. Motes act as information seekers and report almost everything on to which they are embedded. Essentially, smart dust is made up of thousands of very minute sensors that can measure ambient light, heat, movement, and sound. These would cost peanuts if mass-produced, could be plastered all over office buildings and homes. Each room in an office building might have a hundred or even thousand light-and temperature-sensing motes, all of which would tie into a central computer that regulates energy usage in the building. This mainly evolved the self assembly chips technology.
The secret of self assembly
Currently, chips are built up, layer by layer, through a process called photolithography. A layer of silicon, metal, or some other material is deposited on a chip and coated with a light-sensitive material, called a photoresist. Light shining through a kind of stencil — a “mask” — projects a detailed pattern onto the photoresist, which hardens where it’s exposed. The unhardened photoresist is washed away, and chemicals etch away the bare material underneath.
The problem is that chip features are now significantly smaller than the wavelength of the light used to make them. Manufacturers have developed various tricks to get light to produce patterns smaller than its own wavelength, but they won’t work at smaller scales.
The obvious way to continue shrinking chip features would be to use beams of electrons to transfer mask patterns to layers of photoresist. But unlike light, which can shine through a mask and expose an entire chip at once, an electron beam moves back and forth across the surface of a chip in parallel lines, like a harvester working along rows of wheat. The slow, precise scanning of electron-beam lithography makes it significantly more expensive than conventional optical lithography.
Berggren and Ross’ approach is to use electron-beam lithography, to create patterns of tiny posts on a silicon chip. They then deposit specially designed polymers molecules in which smaller, repeating molecular units are linked into long chains on the chip. The polymers spontaneously hitch up to the posts and arrange themselves into useful patterns.
These days, chips are manufactured with copper wiring surrounded by an insulator, which involves a mask to create circuit patterns by beaming light through the mask and later chemically removing the parts that are not needed. The new technique to make air gaps by self-assembly skips the masking and light-etching process. Instead IBM scientists discovered the right mix of compounds, which they pour onto a silicon wafer with the wired chip patterns, then bake it. This patented process provides the right environment for the compounds to assemble in a directed manner, creating trillions of uniform, nano-scale holes across an entire 300 millimeter wafer. These holes are just 20 nanometers in diameter, up to five times smaller than would be possible using today’s most advanced lithography technique. Once the holes are formed, the carbon silicate glass is removed, creating a vacuum between the wires known as the airgap, allowing the electrical signals to either flow 35 percent faster, or to consume 15 percent less energy.
Research is required, before self-assembling molecules can provide a feasible means for manufacturing individual chips. Berggren and Ross see the technique’s being used to produce stamps that could impart nanoscale magnetic patterns to the surfaces of hard disks, or even to produce the masks used in conventional lithography: the state-of-the art masks for a single chip require electron-beam lithography and can cost millions of dollars. In the meantime, Ross and Berggren are working to find arrangements of their nanoscale posts that will produce functioning circuits in prototype chips, and they’re trying to refine their technique to produce even smaller chip features.

New York Prepares Cybersecurity Guidance for BanksNew Guidelines to Address Vendor Management, Authentication
Banks should be closely watching pending New York state cybersecurity requirements for banks, which may soon get adapted and applied country-wide.
Regulators in New York state are expected to release the new guidelines - covering cyber-resilience, vendor management and breach notification - in early 2016. And while no specific deadline for complying with the new rules has been revealed, the tone set by this new guidance will likely have a ripple effect, becoming a cybersecurity benchmark that influences not just state-level but also federal banking regulators.
"Recommendations from this state regulator, which oversees many of the country's largest financial institutions, are going to affect all of you."
Here's what we know so far: In November, Anthony J. Albanese, the acting superintendent of financial services for the New York State Department of Financial Services, published a letter detailing the department's plans to issue new cybersecurity guidance. Specifically, the department called out the need for enhanced cybersecurity oversight and numerous requirements for banks, including these requirements:
- Setting overall cybersecurity policies and procedures;
- Creating policies for managing third-party service providers' cybersecurity;
- Hiring qualified CISOs;
- Hiring qualified staff and vendors to ensure sufficient cybersecurity and cyber-intelligence capabilities;
- Ensuring CISOs enforce cybersecurity procedures and standards that ensure application security;
- Employing multifactor authentication for customers accessing online banking, and for employees and service providers accessing internal systems and data;
- Auditing all related processes;
- Maintaining cyber-incident and breach notification policies.
The detailed message to banking institutions is clear: Start bulking up your cyber-budgets now, and pay attention to the new rules forthcoming from the NYSDFS. Because recommendations from this state regulator, which oversees many of the country's largest financial institutions, are going to affect all of you.
And you don't just have to take my word for it. Here's what the NYSDFS says in its statement about the pending guidance:
"The scale and breadth of the most recent breaches and incidents demonstrate that cybersecurity is a global concern that affects every industry at all levels. There is a demonstrated need for robust regulatory action in the cybersecurity space, and the department is now considering a new cybersecurity regulation for financial institutions. The department believes that it would be beneficial to coordinate its efforts with relevant state and federal agencies, to develop a comprehensive cybersecurity framework that addresses the most critical issues, while still preserving the flexibility to address New York-specific concerns."
To that end, the department says it has built its proposals for cybersecurity enhancements - as detailed in the points I bulleted above - and "welcomes the opportunity to work with other regulators to develop a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity regulation in the weeks and months ahead."
Highlight: Third-Party Vendor Management
While the letter outlines some very specific recommendations, such as the need for each banking institution to hire or name a qualified CISO to be the "buck stops here" executive responsible for overseeing and enforcing the institution's cybersecurity program and policies, what really catches my attention are the new requirements relating to managing third parties.
Notably, the department - echoing recent statements from federal regulators - calls out third-party security risks as a leading cybersecurity concern. It emphasizes too that banking institutions must ensure that all of their vendors and service providers adhere to the same levels of cybersecurity standards as the banks do themselves.
"Each [financial institution] would be required to implement and maintain policies and procedures to ensure the security of sensitive data or systems that are accessible to, or held by, third-party service providers," the department states. "The policies and procedures would be required to include internal requirements for minimum preferred terms to be included in contracts with third-party service providers."
Those "minimum" terms include requiring and ensuring that third parties:
- Use multifactor authentication to limit internal and external access to sensitive data and systems;
- Encrypt all sensitive data, both in transit and at rest;
- Notify the banking institution of all cybersecurity incidents;
- Contractually indemnify the banking institution against any cybersecurity incident that results in lost data;
- Allow the banking institution or its agents to perform cybersecurity audits of all third parties;
- Ensure that third parties have warranties in place for information security.
Without a doubt, managing third-party service provider risks will continue to be challenging. But as the Target breach - amongst many others - demonstrated so well, we know it's a necessity. And federal banking regulators have been hammering home the need for more third-party oversight for the past 18 months (see OCC Expands on Third-Party Cyber-Risks and OCC: More Third-Party Risk Guidance).
What Happens Next
Banks know they need to do more. But where to start? And what's the gold standard of accountability?
That's what I like about the proposal from the NYSDFS. The minimum standards it suggests for managing third-party cybersecurity are clear and precise. For example, there's not much question or confusion about what types of data must encrypted.
While there is no specific timetable for release of this pending guidance, I hope we see it become a reality sooner, not later, in 2016. And I look forward to seeing how other states' - as well as federal - banking regulators also adopt and incorporate some of these recommendations.
I also look forward to conducting a post-mortem analysis later in the new year on these moves. Is New York headed in the right direction with its outlined new guidance? Or will this be viewed by the industry as being simply more noise about compliance, and not enough about truly advancing banks' cybersecurity?

Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy,forbearance, and benevolence were, all, my business. The dealings of my
trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!
–Jacob Marley, A Christmas Carol
The words of Jacob Marley ring down through the years. At the time Dickens wrote his novella, “A Christmas Carol”, England was experiencing a renewed interest in the practice of Christmas. At a time where there were no soup kitchens, no social safety net, and the gap between the haves and have nots was the size of the Grand Canyon; Dickens touched on the importance of charity and goodwill towards others. His words helped to spark a new interest in Christmas.
The idea of reaching out and helping others has always resonated with me. I’ve long had a belief that it’s my job to care about my fellow man. This isn’t something done because I get a reward. It’s not done because someone tells me to. It’s just what you do.
Julie Whitt believed in helping her fellow man. She was the 2005 Body for Life Grand Champion in the inspirational category. She took charge of her health so she could undergo a double lung transplant. Julie was one of those people who always reached out to help others. She had a kind word for everyone. She believed that it was her job to inspire and lead others to a better life. She did that one person at a time. I remember stories about her sending supplies to help people with their Body for Life Challenges after Katrina. Right up to the days before her transplant, she kept reaching out to help others.
She died on December 19th, 2005. Unlike Jacob Marley, Julie made mankind her business. There was no chain for her to drag through eternity. She lived a good life. Christmas isn’t just one day a year. The spirit of Christmas is something you should live year round. Julie did that.
Dickens and Julie are two of the people who inspire me this time of year, and year round. It’s not my job to get ahead of everyone around me. It’s not my job to show people how cool I am. Mankind is my business. The lives and well being of people around me are my business. Doing the right thing, and the common good are my business. It’s not always easy, and it isn’t always profitable in the way most people expect it should be.
Yet the value to me is incalculable. I live with Christmas in my heart year round. I’m happy, I believe in the wonder and glory of impossible things, and I strive to share those with others. It’s a gift without price, and it is the easiest gift you can ever give.
Make mankind your business. You’ll never regret it. Merry Christmas to all. And as Tiny Tim said, “God Bless us, Everyone!”

Ethereum has long been considered a pillar of reliability and innovation in the crypto space. However, recent revelations threaten to change this picture. Lane Rettig, former lead developer at Ethereum, dropped a bombshell when he stated that more than two-thirds of Ethereum tokens were distributed in controversial pre-mining. These revelations raise serious questions about the transparency and ethics of the Ethereum blockchain.
According to Rettig, about 70% of Ethereum tokens were pre-mined before the cryptocurrency was even publicly available.
This strategy, often used to control the initial distribution of a new currency, appears to have been exploited to the limit here, leaving the majority of tokens in the hands of a small group of insiders.
This practice raises questions about the fairness of token distribution and the overall transparency of the process. For a technology praised for its decentralization and openness, these revelations could damage the reputation of the cryptocurrency Ethereum and shake the confidence of investors and users.
Another worrying aspect revealed by Rettig concerns the concentration of wealth within Ethereum. A very small number of anonymous people are believed to own a significant portion of the total ETH supply. This situation creates a power imbalance and contradicts the blockchain ideal of decentralization.
These secretive Ethereum “whales” could have a disproportionate influence on the market, raising concerns about possible price manipulation and the overall health of the crypto ecosystem.
Implications and reactions from the crypto community
The revelation of these practices sparked a heated debate within the crypto community. Ethereum supporters are forced to reconsider their position, while critics feel confirmed in their doubts about blockchain management.
These allegations cast a shadow over Ethereum and serve as a stark reminder that transparency and fairness in the crypto world are not just ideals, but imperatives. Given this turmoil, the crypto market is at a crossroads, teetering between skepticism and hope. Restoring trust becomes a major challenge: can Ethereum truly dispel the clouds of doubt, or are its foundations broken beyond repair?
This controversial episode calls into question not only the integrity of Ethereum but also the core principles of the crypto industry. As reactions and speculation mount, a crucial lesson becomes clear: Don’t blindly accept apparent truths, but look for clarity behind statements and promises.
Ethereum, standing at a crossroads, must now demonstrate its ability to weather this storm of outrage and strive for a redemption that redefines its place in the ever-changing world of cryptocurrencies.

Investing in employee mental health boosts the bottom line, Deloitte study finds.
What is one way to increase profits? Decrease expenses, right? That generally holds true, but it’s not the case when it comes to employee mental health. Research recently conducted by Deloitte has found that employers who spend more money on mental health support for their staff tend to become more profitable in the long run.
Just how much more profitable? The Financial Post reports, “For every dollar spent, the median return on investment is $1.62 by the third year and increases over time.” This may seem counterintuitive at first, but it makes sense when you think about it. Employees who aren’t dealing with anxiety, chronic stress, depression, and so on tend to be more focused and productive. They take fewer sick days, collaborate better with their colleagues, and pour more energy into their work.
The report lists the following key findings:
- Spending money on mental health initiatives saves employers money
- Prioritizing investment in training and preventative measures can further increase the return on investment
- Employers often fail to track the outcomes of their mental health spending
- There are many existing services and resources to help employers get a head start on building their workplace mental health programs
Of course, it goes without saying that prioritizing employee wellness is the morally right thing to do for any organization; the argument is only strengthened by the overwhelming financial benefits. Mentally healthy workers save their employers from having to pay for costly expenses, including but not limited to medication and disability leave. It’s estimated that approximately 500,000 Canadians miss work at some point in their careers due to mental health challenges. This puts a roughly $56-billion strain on the economy.
The three-year study by Deloitte tracked seven large companies that have significantly invested in employee mental health. One of these organizations was Bell, which happens to be a long-time LifeSpeak client. The research concluded that in the last seven years Bell has enjoyed a positive return on investment due to their commitment to improving the mental health of their staff. Other well-known employers in the report include Air Canada, CIBC, and Morneau Shepell.

Jeff Koyen is an American journalist, editor, entrepreneur and investor. According to The New York Times, "The face of web tech today could easily be a designer, like Brian Chesky at Airbnb, or a magazine editor, like Jeff Koyen at Assignmint."
In 2017, Koyen was honored by the "Society of Professional Journalists"' Deadline Club and the Society of American Business Editors and Writers for his investigation into New York CIty's black market for food cart permits, which was published by Crain's New York Business.
Koyen was born in 1969 and raised in Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey and currently lives in Brooklyn. He is a graduate of Rutgers University. He has worked as a freelance travel and culture writer, filing with Travel and Leisure, The New York Times, New York magazine, Radar, New York Post, New York Press, Penthouse, Wired.com, The Prague Pill, and others.
From 1994 to 2000, Koyen was the editor of the zine Crank,. It was the first zine to be published simultaneously in print and online, first in 1994 via FTP, then at Crank.com starting in 1995.
Starting in 1998, he was a contributing writer and production manager at New York Press until he moved to Prague in 2002, where he was hired as associate editor at the expatriate paper, The Prague Pill. There, he met and formed a close working relationship with Alexander Zaitchik. In February 2003, Koyen was hired as editor-in-chief of New York Press by new owners. Zaitchik left Prague to join him on the New York Press masthead. Between 2007 and 2010, he worked as the deputy editor at both Forbes Traveler and Travel + Leisure, while also freelancing for the New York Times, New York magazine and other publications.
In April 2012, Koyen founded the software startup Assignmint. In 2015, he founded the sleep-focused website Van Winkle's on behalf of Casper Sleep, the mattress startup. In 2016, he launched Pressland, an open-sourced directory of media outlets and editors. He also founded the writing project 100 Words in 2001.
An early bitcoin and blockchain enthusiast, Koyen was the first journalist to cover cryptocurrency in the mainstream media, in a feature story for New York Magazine. This led to his appointment as CEO and President of 360 Blockchain USA .
Under his direction, 360 Blockchain acquired and will relaunch Pressland as an enterprise platform for fighting false news and misinformation. In August 2018, the company acquired ICO Ranker, a token sale review website. Under Koyen's leadership, ICO Ranker will rebrand itself as “the industry standard for honest, reliable ICO reviews.”
In March 2005, while serving as the editor-in-chief of the New York Press, Koyen ran a cover story by Matt Taibbi entitled "52 Funniest Things About the Upcoming Death of the Pope". The article was widely condemned by Senators Hillary Clinton and Chuck Schumer, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Matt Drudge, and Abe Foxman, among others, including now-disgraced Congressman Anthony Weiner who suggested that New Yorkers take copies of that issue out of their news boxes and destroy them.
The publisher responded to the attacks by demanding that Koyen publicly apologize for the article. Koyen instead chose to resign his position. He went on to defend the story, attacking owner David Unger and publisher Chris Rohland in the media, saying "They couldn't handle the controversy... I didn't expect them to cave in and cower so easily. I'm really surprised they were so spineless."
No apology was ever issued for Taibbi's article.

The first photographic history of West Philadelphia over the last 100+ years.
The many neighborhoods west of the Schuylkill River across from William Penn's "Quaker City" were distinctly rural until 1860, when horsecar lines first crossed the river. The area soon became home to wealthy businessmen who built elegant mansions and villas in University City and Powelton Village. West Philadelphia's growth accelerated northward into Belmont and Parkside-Girard after the 1876 Centennial Exposition and westward into Cedar Park, Spruce Hill, and Walnut Hill in the 1890s with the introduction of electric trolley lines.
Images of the typical, modest West Philadelphia row houses, which slowly took over the open farmland after the Market Street Elevated opened in 1907, tell the story of how Philadelphia became known as the "City of Homes." Countless, rarely seen photographs of the streets where people lived and worked fill this extraordinary history.

Progressive Jews accused President Donald Trump of blaring “straightforward anti-Semitism” after he said from the Oval Office on Tuesday that Jewish Americans who vote for the Democratic Party are either ignorant or disloyal.
The smear — which sparked widespread outrage and the trending hashtag #DisloyaltoTrump — came after Trump once again baselessly accused Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) of hating Jews and Israel.
“Where has the Democratic Party gone?” Trump said. “Where have they gone where they’re defending these two people over the state of Israel? I think that any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.”
IfNotNow, a youth-led progressive Jewish advocacy group, quickly hit back, condemning the president for once again deploying the kind of hate-filled rhetoric that has fueled recent anti-Semitic attacks in the United States.
“This is an explicit dual loyalty charge wielded by the president of the United States against 80 percent of American Jews who voted against him,” the group said in a statement to Newsweek, alluding to 2018 midterm election data from the Pew Research Center.
“It is not merely an anti-Semitic dog whistle — it’s a bullhorn to his white nationalist base,” said IfNotNow. “American Jews and Democratic voters know full well the impact of the racist policies of Netanyahu and the Israeli government on the Palestinian people. This is why an overwhelming majority… oppose those policies, like unchecked settlement expansion.”
The idea that Jews are disloyal and trying to undermine our country from the left has been the animating force behind the deadly, antisemitic violence we’ve seen under the Trump administration.
This rhetoric from the president is going to get Jews killed. It already has. https://t.co/nWSAD6ZUtU
— IfNotNow🔥 (@IfNotNowOrg) August 20, 2019
Trump’s attack on American Jews comes days after he publicly urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop Tlaib and Omar from entering Israel.
The Israeli government last week initially barred both lawmakers, but later said Tlaib could make the trip to visit her 90-year-old grandmother who lives in the occupied West Bank — provided that she refrain from expressing support for boycott activities.
Tlaib, the first Palestinian-American woman ever elected to Congress, refused to accept these “oppressive” conditions and decided on Friday to cancel her planned trip.
Trump has since been intensifying his attacks on Tlaib and Omar, and on Tuesday he expanded his smears to the Jews who have rallied in support of the two progressive lawmakers.
Beth Miller, government affairs manager at Jewish Voice for Peace Action, told Newsweek that Trump’s comments “play into the anti-Semitic trope of Jews holding ‘dual-loyalty'” and were “wildly disconnected from reality.”
“A rapidly growing number of American Jews support conditioning, cutting, or ending U.S. military aid to a country that uses our tax dollars to violently oppress Palestinians,” said Miller.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate who is Jewish, also fired back at Trump.
“Let me say this to the president,” Sanders tweeted. “I am a proud Jewish person and I have no concerns about voting Democratic. And in fact, I intend to vote for a Jewish man to become the next president of the United States.”
The stakes have never been higher (and our need for your support has never been greater).

With Open Eyes, the final episode of Succession, marks the bitter fulfillment of the parable of the Roy clan, transforming their power struggle into a painful game of slaughter.
“Who do you think dad would have wanted to give his seat to?” “None of us, I think.”
The dry disillusionment of Shiv’s answer to his brother Roman’s question is yet another testimony of how, in the trio of aspiring heirs to the throne of Logan Roy, the youngest daughter is the person with greater lucidity and awareness. Therefore, it is perhaps a flash of sudden lucidity that, in final of Succession, will push Shiv to the sensational about-face at the basis of that last, devastating twist: breaking the alliance with Kendall and Roman by casting a decisive vote in favor of the acquisition of Waystar RoyCo by GoJo, the media giant owned by the Swedish businessman Lukas Matsson. “I love you, but I cannot fucking stomach you” (“I love you, but I can’t stand you“): in Shiv’s sentence love and contempt coexist, the two complementary sentiments that for four seasons have characterized the relationships of the most dysfunctional dynasty of contemporary TV (or at least, on an equal footing with the Windsors of The Crown).
The succession: three brothers for a throne
In the span of ninety minutes of With Open Eyes, the final episode of the acclaimed HBO series, the English screenwriter and showrunner Jesse Armstrong therefore returns to unite and separate the three Roy brothers in a frenetic swirl of alliances and rivalries. The ‘succession’ has been, right from the title of the work, the main objective of Kendall, Roman and Shiv: a goal brought closer by the sudden departure of the patriarch played by Brian Cox, an event at the heart of the episode Connor’s Wedding. If Logan Roy represented a tyrannical King Lear who towered over the lives of his children, subjugating them under a shadow from which they were unable to escape, not even Logan’s death was enough to free them completely from the cumbersome paternal presence. And the unresolved tensions between the Roy brothers explode in an epilogue that manages to show us the most human and vulnerable sides of these three offspring so often opportunistic and amoral.
It is the ultimate mockery of Succession: a series that has played with the registers of the grotesque and drama since its origins and which here, after a domestic interlude – Kendall’s funny milkshake-based ‘coronation’ ceremony – cloaked in a ‘unusual tenderness, destroys the prospects of a revenge of the new generation of Roys, who until a moment before seemed about to regain their father’s empire at the table of the board of directors of Waystar RoyCo. In this sense, With Open Eyes it’s an ending that dismantles our expectations as much as the rematch convention grounded in principle”Unity is strength“: if Kendall, Roman and Shiv could appear to us as anti-heroes on the threshold of redemption, able to obliterate their differences once and for all, Jesse Armstrong disintegrates the aforementioned scenario in a handful of angry, unforgettable minutes, with a face to face between three protagonists who just have to confirm their own nature.
Succession 4, the review of the first episodes: towards the end of a masterpiece
Tom and Shiv: The Useful Idiot and his First Lady
“I don’t think you’d be good enough“: is the lapidary sentence of Shiv, embodied by a sumptuous one Sarah Snook with an impressive amalgam of coldness and neurosis, of sincere pragmatism and hatred repressed with increasing effort. If on many occasions Shiv has proved to be the most rational and balanced of the three, Armstrong has the intelligence to maintain a quid of ambiguity in the choice of woman: the backstabbing of a brother who so many times had depreciated her, a Machiavellian “checkmate” to obtain the title of First Lady of the Waystar or the desire to free Kendall from the weight of the legacy of Logan? This is the weight under which Kieran Culkin’s eccentric Roman had already risked succumbing, who at the beginning of the episode we find on the run to Barbados and who, immediately before the meeting of the board of directors, bursts into tears between his brother’s arms, wondering heartbroken: “Why isn’t it my turn?“.
Roman, resigned to his own inadequacy (the paternal throne is not up to him), will leave the series with a martini in hand, after the ritual photo with the hated winner, Alexander Skarsgård’s Lukas Matsson. To Shiv, creator of this bitter “endgame”, the series offers a silent and chilling exit from the scene: sitting in the car with her husband Tom Wambsgans (Matthew Macfadyen), after the avalanches of vitriol that for an entire season, and until a few minutes before, the two spouses had spilled on top of each other. Tom, if necessary slippery and mellifluous by virtue of his immoderate ambition, also stands here as the “useful idiot” to whom Matsson will entrust the position of managing director of the Waystar, and therefore, in essence, the ‘crown’ of the deceased Logan Roy; not before blurting out his attraction to his wife Shiv and annotating with the phrase “Why not get me the guy who put the baby in her tummy instead of the lady with the baby?“.
House of the Dragon like Succession: Legacy for the Throne is played in the family
Kendall Roy: The Tragedy of a Ridiculous Man
On the other hand, Tom’s triumph makes perfect sense: the ideal official of an unscrupulous and soulless capitalism, and not by chance already Logan’s right hand man, Tom is the quick-change artist able to guess in which direction the wind will blow. And “Cousin Greg”, the outsider played with irresistible ingenuity by Nicholas Braun, is destined to remain Tom’s worthy stooge. That leap of dignity that drives him to react with a slap to Tom’s aggression remains, in fact, just a gasp: an instant later, Greg is once again in the role of the faithful servant, willing to suffer any humiliation in order to keep his assistant position with a salary of two hundred thousand dollars. If Tom and Greg are therefore the ideal actors of this “comedy of power”, in the parable of Kendall Roy farce instead borders on drama (and vice versa): when it claims to be “the eldest son“, with the solemn air of a Shakespearean prince, Shiv’s reaction is an irreverent laugh, before reminding him that in fact it is not so.
Kendall, role that earned a monumental Jeremy Strong an Emmy Award and a Golden Globe for Best Actor, is the most intimately tragic figure of Succession: tragic, but declined according to the canons of our era, and therefore the daughter of a tragedy that can only be ridiculous. Kendall covets the fatherly throne because”it’s the only thing I know how to doand why, as he mutters desperately in his plea to Shiv,if I can’t do it, I feel that… I could die“. In the moment of his defeat, while the barely worn crown already slips off his head, Kendall is a protagonist as much more poignant as more pathetic: in the vain meanness with which he tries to deny having been responsible for the death of a man and in the ‘inability to read and accept reality. And the last, painful shot can only be for him: an inept and ousted prince, intent on staring at the Hudson River with the now lifeless gaze of someone who can do nothing but contemplate the abyss.

For the future, he wants to make a perfect squad. The former Brazilian and Barcelona player Rivaldo thinks that Ronald Koeman is doing the right thing! Ronald Koeman is doing the thing that his arch-rival Zinedine Zidane is failing to do so. So, Zidane is still behind Koeman in this sector, Rivaldo thought that.
The golden days of the Catalan club have passed already. And they are still missing the talented players gathering in the dressing room. Right now, Barcelona is keeping faith in young talents. Especially, when the Dutch manager Ronald Koeman has taken control of the Barcelona dressing room, he is fixing his eye towards the young talents.
After the 16th round in La Liga, Atletico Madrid is holding the top position on the league point table. They have gathered the highest 41 points so far. Yes, Real Madrid and Barcelona played two more matches than the team of Simeone but Real Madrid is still four points behind Atletico Madrid. And Barcelona is in 3rd position with 34 points so far.
In recent times, Barcelona is not the only contender for the league throne, everybody knows that. So, though Barcelona is in 3rd position, Rivaldo is still happy with the current performance of the club. He is satisfied because the current boss of Barcelona Koeman is using the young players perfectly. Yes, they are now behind on the way to lift the league throne but already Koeman’s team has secured the Spanish Super Cup final.
— MARCA in English (@MARCAinENGLISH) January 16, 2021
Team Barcelona is doing great right now and behind the charismatic performance of the club, Ronald Koeman is playing the vital role, Rivaldo believes that. The World Cup-winning footballer of Brazil wrote in his column that the key to using the young talents in the squad is not to give them pressure. Yes, he believes that Koeman is doing great by making the combination of Messi, Jordi Alba, and Busquets with the young players.
Ronald Koeman is doing the right
So, Koeman is deserving of the expected honor from the club official. However, Rivaldo also praised the current goalkeeper of Barcelona Ter Stegen. The former Barcelona forward has kept Stegen ahead of the former great goalkeeper of the club Victor Valdes. To him, Ter Stegen is the best goalkeeper in Barcelona ever. Yes, he can keep Stegen ahead of Victor Valdes.
Already, Barcelona has secured their place in the Spanish Super Cup final. In the 2nd semi-final, Real Madrid faced the defeat against Athletic Bilbao and ruled out from the tournament. To the eye of Rivaldo, Zinedine Zidane has failed to use the young players of the squad perfectly. No, he does not know what is the reason behind that or who is behind the scene. But at the beginning, Zidane used Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, and other young talents perfectly but right now, the fully opposite thing is happening there.
Rivaldo: "I have always said that the key to managing young talents is not to put too much pressure on them and I think Koeman is doing well, bringing the kids together with Busquets, Messi, Jordi Alba… Koeman deserves to be congratulated and appreciated for that management." pic.twitter.com/Zv8iUiwmCe

In the current time of Real Madrid, Vinicius Junior is called as one of the best young talents. But the rumor has spread that Zidane is angry with the Brazilian professional forward and so, he is not grounding the talented player regularly. If that is true, the team is facing the problem, Rivaldo believes.
Yes, he has demanded that in the current week, he has read about it. As a punishment, Zidane is doing that. When the Frenchman Zidane talked about the techniques, Vinicius used his mobile. So, the coach became angry at him. But the way he is using for the punishment right now is not perfect. Because the team is suffering for that. Vinicius Junior could be fined for that.


Turn the Page is an album by American country music artist Waylon Jennings, released on RCA Records in 1985. Jennings recorded the album at a time when he was completely drug-free; this had not occurred in his career for about twenty years. In April 1984, Jennings rented a house in Arizona for himself, his wife Jessi Colter, and young son Shooter, and quit cocaine cold turkey, although he did not intend to quit for good.

CanHOPE is a non-profit cancer counselling and support service provided by Parkway Cancer Centre, Singapore.
When the genetic material (DNA) of a cell becomes damaged or changed, it produces mutations that affect normal cell growth and division. When this happens, cells do not die when they should and new cells form when the body does not need them. The extra cells may form a mass of tissue called a tumour. When these tumours becomes malignant, they become cancerous and can spread to other parts of the body.
9.6 million people worldwide are estimated to die from cancer in 2018
1 in 6 deaths is due to cancer
Most common cancers are Lung, Breast, Colorectal, Prostate, Skin Cancer (non-melanoma) and Stomach
Cancer arises from the transformation of normal cells into tumour cells in a multistage process that generally progresses from a pre-cancerous lesion to a malignant tumour. These changes are the result of the interaction between a person’s genetic factors and 3 categories of external agents, including:
Physical carcinogens, such as ultraviolet and ionizing radiation
Chemical carcinogens, such as asbestos, components of tobacco smoke, aflatoxin (a food contaminant), and arsenic (a drinking water contaminant)
Biological carcinogens, such as infections from certain viruses, bacteria, or parasites.
Ageing is another fundamental factor for the development of cancer. The incidence of cancer rises dramatically with age, most likely due to a build-up of risks for specific cancers that increase with age. The overall risk accumulation is combined with the tendency for cellular repair mechanisms to be less effective as a person grows older.
Tobacco use, alcohol use, unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity are major cancer risk factors worldwide
Hepatitis B and C virus and some types of HPV increase the risk for liver and cervical cancer, respectively
Modifying or avoiding key risk factors can significantly reduce the burden of cancer
30-50% of cancers are preventable by healthy lifestyle choices
Early cancer detection and treatment can reduce cancer deaths
Some of the most common cancer types, such as breast cancer, cervical cancer, oral cancer and colorectal cancer have high cure rates when detected early and treated according to best practices
IN MEMORY OF Testing Archie Andrews IN HONOUR OF You fought hard my dear. You did well! Nicole I’M A SURVIVOR Diagnosed breast cancer in 2010, mastectomy was done, undergone chemotherapy, radiotherapy and also oral. Lucky to have so many friends and family members around me, who gave me so much hope and encouragement. Also attended the CanHOPE support group, where we shared experiences during the sharing session. I also assist to set up Line Dancing sessions for cancer patients since 2011 till now. Stay happy and positive. Patricia Tham Lai Kuan IN MEMORY OF Those we have lost IN HONOUR OF All Survivors. Continue the fight! IN HONOUR OF Jamilah A. I’M A SURVIVOR Cancer very disruptive!! Turned my life upside down. From a focused and down-to-earthperson, I became someone lacking in confident, confused and full of emotions. I hated theword “Strong”. “Be strong”, “Stay strong”, “You are strong”, “Thought you are strong”, blah,blah…. Never an easy journey!!But when you trust, submit and be a true slave to the only ONE, things will get easier. Seekhelp. Make authentic decision for yourself and no one else. Never give up HOPE!!

Rapper Jay Z may not mean to boast, but he's pretty sure that at least a third of the albums he's released are classics.
Jay Z, whose government name is Shawn Carter, has 12 studio albums. The 44-year-old -- also known to fans as J-Hova, Hov or Jigga -- has sold approximately 50 million albums worldwide and has won 17 Grammy Awards during his impressive career.
So, what is the best Jay Z album of all time? What about the worst release out of the dozen?
Jay Z and Justin Timberlake e4nded their Miami concert on Friday night by singing a cover of "Forever Young" and dedicating it to Trayvon Martin.
Jay Z and Justin Timberlake ended their concert in Miami on Friday with a rendition of "Forever Young" that they dedicated to Trayvon Martin.
View the slide show above to see where each Hov album ranks.
One interesting note: Jay Z's 2013 release, "Magna Carta Holy Grail," finds itself sandwiched in the middle of the list. Guess in the rapper's opinion of his latest release is that it's "just okay," at least compared to his other work.
What more can he say?
