Armis, the leading asset visibility and security company, today announced that it has achieved U.S. DoD Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) authorization to operate (ATO) at Impact Level 4 (IL4). This authorization signifies that Armis has met the DoD's strict requirements for the government's sensitive Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). DoD customers can now take advantage of Armis's secure, agentless, Unified Asset Management for IT, OT and IoT devices.
The IL4 ATO is part of continued public sector momentum for Armis, following the achievement of a FedRAMP Moderate Authority to Operate (ATO) in January of this year. These dual votes of confidence mean that any civilian and DoD agency can now take advantage of the most comprehensive AVM platform available.
"There is no more important group of organizations that needs complete situational awareness of their network environment than those who defend our nation," said Brian Gumbel, President of Armis. "Our platform discovers, aggregates and correlates all asset information into a single source of truth and identifies vulnerabilities to mitigate risks. Armis will now be able to help DoD meet the challenges of a perimeter-less world and an ever-evolving cyber threat landscape."
Many public sector organizations experience a "visibility gap" where IT and security leaders can't see all the vulnerable assets within their environment. You can't protect what you can't see, and the DoD can no longer depend on conventional perimeter-based or identity-based defenses alone to protect critical systems and government data. Accelerating migration to the cloud, the convergence of IT/OT/IoT and increases in near-peer adversary capabilities have changed how the DoD must approach cybersecurity.
Armis automatically generates a complete inventory of devices in your enterprise environment - on or off the network. The breadth, depth, and accuracy of the Armis asset inventory and device discovery exceeds that of other products available today. Agencies say they see 50% to 70% more connected devices using Armis technology, giving them the situational awareness they need to protect their networks.
Many security frameworks, such as the NIST SP 1800-35A on implementing a Zero Trust Framework, start with inventory. Being aware that assets exist is a prerequisite for cybersecurity but isn't enough. DoD IT leaders need to know whether devices are risky. After discovering and classifying each asset, Armis calculates its risk score. This risk score helps security teams take proactive steps to reduce their attack surface and meet compliance and regulatory frameworks that require agencies to identify and prioritize vulnerabilities. The score is based on multiple risk factors including software vulnerabilities, known attack patterns, connection security, and the observed behavior of each device.
"This new IL4 authorization is testament to Armis's commitment to supporting the U.S. Federal government. We are honored to be a trusted partner in helping agencies adjust to an increasingly dangerous cyber environment," continued Gumbel.
Armis helps to see and secure some of the largest U.S states and government departments in the world protecting federal, state and local entities from cyber criminals, rogue nations and other bad actors. It also secures critical infrastructure at some of the largest airports, ports and healthcare delivery organizations around the world.Companies trust Armis' real-time and continuous protection to see with full context all managed, unmanaged assets across IT, cloud, IoT devices, medical devices (IoMT), operational technology (OT), industrial control systems (ICS) and 5G.
Armis, the leading asset visibility and security company, provides the industry's first unified asset intelligence platform designed to address the new extended attack surface that connected assets create. Fortune 100 companies trust our real-time and continuous protection to see with full context all managed, unmanaged assets across IT, cloud, IoT devices, medical devices (IoMT), operational technology (OT), industrial control systems (ICS), and 5G. Armis provides passive cyber asset management, risk management, and automated enforcement. Armis is a privately held company and headquartered in California.

I have to admit, I love to paint. Not pictures as such, but walls. I discover a certain satisfaction in rubbing away what is old and dirty with the steady, repetitive swish of a brush or roller. I can understand why so many people like to renovate homes. They have the opportunity to transform a space completely… to create their own little piece of heaven out of something that maybe wasn’t so heavenly.
I think some of us throw ourselves into home improvements (and many other types of improvements) so much because, deep down, we are longing for our truest, most perfect home. The one we haven’t arrived at yet. We try and pull a little piece of heaven onto the earth. We try and create ‘the ideal’ in a very non-ideal world.
I just discovered a C.S. Lewis quote which delighted me:
“The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing – to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from – my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back.” – Psyche from Till We Have Faces.
This encapsulates for me the desire for home that I often feel. This sense of incompleteness…
And it explains why I long to create beauty here, in its various forms. Because I was created to experience it. To revel in it. To enjoy it as one who knows God intimately – the original maker of all things.
So I shall continue to rest with the longing, knowing that one day it will lead me home – “the place where all the beauty came from”. Because then it will not be the end, but truly, a glorious returning.

Company Spotlight: Pulse Biosciences
(RTTNews) - Shares of development-stage medical technology company Pulse Biosciences Inc. (PLSE) have gained more than 25% so far this week.
The company's proprietary technology is called Nano-Pulse Stimulation, or NPS, which has a potential to be used in oncology, dermatology, aesthetics as well as other minimally invasive applications.
In pre-clinical testing, NPS has demonstrated its potential to effectively trigger immunogenic cell death, stimulate anti-tumor immunity responses, and inhibit metastases in a variety of oncologic conditions.
Last November, in a pilot study, the company successfully tested its first-of-its-kind PulseTx System, which is based on NPS technology, in dermatology. The pilot study evaluated a range of NPS doses in abdominal skin that will later be resected (cut off) during a standard abdominoplasty ("tummy tuck"). The objective of the study was to establish the response and recovery time of skin to different NPS doses.
The other potential opportunities of dermatologic conditions, which the company has identified for treatment with its PulseTx System, are warts, seborrheic keratosis, actinic keratosis, squamous cell carcinoma, and basal cell carcinoma.
The company had its initial public offering on May 18, 2016 at a price of $4.00 per share.
- Revenue - Nil - Accumulated deficit - $9.79 million - Cash on hand - $4.63 million - Shares Outstanding - 13.32 million
(The above data is sourced from the most recent quarterly report filed on November 14, 2016).
On February 10, 2017, the company announced that former Pharmacyclics executives, Robert "Bob" Duggan and Maky Zanganeh, have taken a combined stake of 17.1% in Pulse Biosciences - with Duggan owning 15.1% and Zanganeh owning 2.0%.
PLSE has thus far hit a low of $4.03 and a high of $12.90. The stock closed Thursday's trading at $12.25, up 4.26%.

August 16, 2000 During the 1990s, central banks in the industrialized countries made important changes in the way they operate. As part of these initiatives, central banks have endeavoured to define a set of best practices, learning from each other in the process. The goal was to improve and adapt the frameworks within which monetary policy is implemented. Clarifying Objectives A clear objective is a necessary starting point for any policy framework. The growing consensus that price stability is the most appropriate objective for monetary policy was perhaps one of the most critical developments of the past decade. Price stability is now universally regarded as the key contribution that monetary policy can make to promote sustainable growth and maximize the level of employment. Central banks also need a clear strategy for achieving their objective. A major development of the past decade was the growing popularity of inflation targets as the numerical focus for monetary policy. Clearly defined inflation targets focus policy on the variable that is directly associated with price stability. The Bank of Canada was one of the first to adopt (in 1991) a set of targets for inflation over a specified time horizon. Accountability Many central banks have acquired greater independence and this, together with the public's desire for more information from key public institutions, has raised the standards for accountability. At the same time, explicit targets provide a clear measure against which to judge the performance of the monetary authorities. Increased accountability also has implications for the overall transparency of the monetary authorities. In sum, central banks have become much more open institutions and are placing greater emphasis on their communications activities. As an example, comprehensive inflation reports have become key communications vehicles for a number of central banks. Many of the changes implemented by central banks stem from the desire to improve the credibility of monetary policy, thus making it easier for monetary authorities to achieve their objectives. Although it is difficult to ascertain the overall effect of the evolving policy framework, it is encouraging that inflation and inflation expectations were at low levels at the end of the 1990s, thus providing a solid base for monetary policy in the future.
An important issue in the debate over the desirability of freer capital mobility for developing countries is whether capital flows have significant effects on economic growth. Proponents of capital account liberalization cite the growth-promoting attributes of capital inflows as a key benefit of financial integration for developing countries.

An unsuspecting buyer has been duped into handing over €770 for a bag of sugar!
The victim believed they were getting a top-of-the-range phone instead.
The dodgy deal took place under cover of darkness in south Armagh.
And it has led to police renewing warnings for people about the safety of responding to advertisements for iPhones for sale via websites.
The victim in this case went to meet the ‘seller’ in Jonesborough.
The seller arrived in an “English-registered Jeep”.
They showed the phone and the victim handed over the money.
But after the conman left, the buyer realised they had been fleeced and had nothing more than a bag of sugar to show for their money!
A PSNI spokesperson warned people of the dangers of such ‘purchases’.
He said: “Please please do not arrange to meet random people in the middle of Jonesborough or anywhere else after dark to purchase anything….. if they are meeting you at the side of the road to sell something you will have no comeback, no warranty, and in this case a very expensive bag of sugar!
“What looked like a good deal turned out to be anything but! And another person has lost a great chunk of hard earned cash.”
Police say they have had several posts of this nature over recent weeks and asked anyone who has information to come forward.

Pink Martini was a more than effective remedy for the gloomy weather that reigned outside on Tuesday evening thanks to its rich and lively show presented at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier at Place des Arts.
Passing through the metropolis for two evenings, the polyglot group made up of a dozen musicians offered a concert as warm as it was energizing for this first performance this year as part of the fortnight, a sold-out 20th at the Montreal International Jazz Festival (FIJM).
With its pop jazz with retro accents and its influences from Latin and classical music, the American group based in Portland, Oregon, took spectators on a journey to the different continents of the globe on Tuesday, without the inconvenience of Montreal-Trudeau airport. . Singing in no less than 25 languages, Pink Martini has notably revisited “Let's never stop falling in love”, “And now”, “U palvu zoru”, as well as one of their first great hits “Sympathique (je ne work).
The energy that emanated from the group was such that we could certainly have supplied electricity to the residents of several Quebec municipalities. As soon as she arrived on stage, the bubbly singer China Forbes, dressed in a long red dress, made the audience beat the beat who encouraged the formation in this way throughout the concert.
The lead soloist also had a lot of fun with the audience, interacting sometimes in English, sometimes in utterly charming broken French, revealing that she wrote “Hey Eugene” for a guy who asked her for her number but never called her back. She has also been awarded the Ella-Fitzgerald prize for her talents as an interpreter, which was presented to her by Alain Simard, founder of the FIJM. Ari Shapiro and Mexican singer Edna Vazquez also took turns on stage at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier for the interpretation of several songs, including a combination of “La Soledad” and “Finnisma di”, as well as “Quizas Quizas Quizas” and “Sola soy”.
Pianist and leader of Pink Martini, Thomas Lauderdale, who founded the formation in 1994, presented each of the songs, adding in passing details on the creation of the latter, in particular for the pieces “And then you're gone”, which takes up the melody of the hit “I will survive” popularized by Gloria Gaynor in the late 1970s, and “But now I'm back”, played one after the other.
Despite being the lead vocalist and among the most important members of the group, China Forbes occasionally shares song interpretations with Storm Large, who joined the group in 2011 following a Forbes vocal cord surgery. In the past, other singers have also participated in Pink Martini projects, notably the Japanese singer Saori Yuki, for the recording of the album “1969”, at the same time.
Add that the the evening opened with Vancouver jazz pianist Amanda Tosoff and Toronto singer Emilie-Claire Barlow, who were accompanied for the occasion by a jazz orchestra; double bassist, saxophonist, drummer.
Pink martini will tread the boards of Wilfrid-Pelletier for a second evening, Wednesday.

I had always connected the city of Redditch as the hometown of ENTACO Ltd, the last of the Hand Sewing Machine needle company in England. It was only recently that I learnt that Redditch was the epicentre of all the dramatic developments in hand sewing needle making for hundreds of years beginning 16th century.
The western religious texts supposedly mentions needle as one of the five tools brought to Paradise by Adam! The trend for grand personal adornment by garments was quite the rage in 16thcentury and needles were in demand. Around the 1600s it was an exotic and rare object. A silver or gold needle was considered a splendid gift amongst the wealthy. Needles were such a useful and indispensable tool that an anecdote circulating in 1850 was that needles can be exchanged for a wife in Sudan! North Americans supposedly bartered land for pockets of needles.
The Spaniards were reportedly the masters of needle making, passing their skills on to the British in early 16thcentury. Prior to Spanish needle workers arriving in England, needles were crude and rough in manufacture, typically carried out by a blacksmith. The English needle makers began importing the specially drawn wire from Spain and Germany, who excelled in drawing wire, and final fabrication of the needle was further developed by the English. The small town of Redditch went on to become world famous for its high-quality manufacturing of handmade sewing needles. The use of water power to polish the needles since the early 1700’s, had given the Redditch area a technical advantage over the competition. At its peak, Redditch produced 90% of the world’s Hand sewing needles.
Forge Mill Needle Museum in Reddich, England, tells the fascinating and sometimes gruesome story of needle making in Victorian times. It was a cold Thursday morning on 3rdApril 2019 and I decided to visit this museum. An hour’s train journey from London to Birmingham, followed by a 20-minute travel by local train and a short taxi ride took me to its doorstep.
The museum comprises two blocks of historic red brick buildings. You can step back in time and experience the largely unchanged atmosphere of an original Hand Sewing Needle factory- right down to machines, tools, wire of that era and even factory grime and cobwebs added by the museum for effect. Much of the original Victorian water powered machinery remains and visitors get to see a demonstration on Tuesday afternoons and on weekends. There was more than one TV screen where movies are broadcast starring actors playing parts of factory workers dressed in period costumes. There were also phones which, when lifted and placed to the ear, tell stories relating to the factory. The stream which provided the water was once known as “Red Ditch”, from which the town got its name. It was called Red Ditch because it stained the grounds with a thick red clay (iron particles?).
Needle manufacturing process was long and the best paid job was also the most dangerous operation of Pointing of needle. Slivers of metal could fly up and blind the worker. Or the grindstone itself could shatter and cause fatal injuries. Furthermore, to impede rust, needles were rolled in asbestos powder. A typical working day lasted 13 hours and six days of the week. It is not surprising that the life expectancy of a pointer was no more than 35 years.
Another floor entirely related to commercial aspects of the business – varieties of needles, applications, marketing, history of big names in the business.
The variety of hand sewing needles displayed boggles the mind- long, short, thick, thin, straight, curved, sharp, blunt, flat, pointed… the variety is endless. They found applications not just in sewing clothes. Embroidery, pins, fishhooks, fishing tackle, harpoons, sail hooks, sailors’ palms, sewing machines, knitting pins, and bodkins, surgery, fishing… Each company of those times had arranged the needles artistically in a large picture frame to visually bring out the range and quality. These frames were taken out for display in world exhibitions in Europe and Americas. Gold, silver and bronze coins were awarded at these exhibitions depending upon utility, innovation, quality etc., These coins form the subject of several displays. When they are not touring around, the needle displays were brought back to head office and kept in board room. These are priceless and amazingly carefully preserved and the companies were generous enough to give it to the museum for display.
But, Redditch seem to have missed getting on the Sewing Machine needle bandwagon. In 1850s Singer, Elias Howe and some others invented sewing machines and did a fantastic job of marketing them. Businessmen in Aachen, Germany, spotted this opportunity. They designed needles for these machines, pioneered die press and other critical operations for fast production, high quality and similar challenges that sewing machine demanded. The pioneer among them was Leo Lammertz whose technology and machines are now used by Beissel in the Chennai factory in India. But that is another story for another time.
There were more than 100 Hand Sewing Needle companies in 19thcentury which amalgamated with each other mostly through marriage. One of the stellar names was Henry Milward and Sons which began in 1730 and lasted four generations. The other was Abel Morrall started in 1785. At its peak, 15,000 persons were employed in the factories.
During the World War II, the companies in the region diverted their energies into supporting war efforts. Men and women in the factories joined the armed forces. When the war ended and factory life returned to normalcy, there were inevitable changes. Companies consolidated and they morphed into different avatars including changing from family to corporate ownership.
Eventually, there would be only two companies – ENTACO Ltd. and Needle Industries Ltd. The latter started a factory in Ooty, India, and is now a 100% Indian owned company. Their Home sewing needles, marketed under brand “Pony”, is prized for quality around the world. ENTACO, which was owned by Coats, was subject of a management buy-out. But, their factory no longer operates in England. They outsource Hand Sewing Needles from another country and sell under the name “John James”.
Similarly, manufacture of Industrial Sewing Machine Needles grew phenomenally in Aachen, Germany, and was the only source for quality Needles worldwide. But, today no Sewing machine needle is manufactured in Germany. Our company was the first to buy machines of LeoLammertz and began manufacture in 1997. This was followed by other German companies moving to India. Therefore, India has now become the centre of both Sewing Machine and Hand Sewing Needles.
Redditch also was the home of two other household names in India – Royal Enfield which was eventually bought out by the Indian partner, saw revival first as a retro and now as high performance motorcycle. Another was Guest Keen Williams (GKN) which made a fortune selling humble safety pins. This company is now extinct both in India and England.
The museum has a shop which sells a large variety of memorabilia – books, DVDs, needles, fridge magnets etc., I bought as many as possible. The entrance fees is just 5.80 Pounds but entitles three repeat visits in a year on this single ticket. There are events through the year relating to sewing and art. There is a nice café too.
The curator of the museum, Ms J Gloger, was kind enough to personally welcome us. There is a special bond between needlephiles and spent considerable time with us filling up with stories and patiently answering all questions. Ms Gloger took the trouble to retrieve from archives a write-up on Leo Lammertz and generously gave a printout. The other memorabilia we were gifted are similarly priceless and should be the beginning of our own collection.
There are two more needle museums in the world, one in Stolberg, Germany, near Aachen. The other is by Bohin of France in Normandy, the scene of d-day landing during World War II. I have seen the one in Stolberg but the Bohin museum is still on my bucket list.
While reminiscing the day’s experience on the train returning to London, I realised the enviable (or unenviable) position me and my colleagues are in by being part-inheritors of this glorious legacy. Will we be up to the challenge of adding to the technological prowess in making this vital tool whose contribution to day-to-day living is too small to notice but too big to ignore?

The Viking Battle Axe, a fearsome weapon known for its effectiveness in combat, played a pivotal role in shaping the tactics and outcomes of battles during the Viking Age. While it is often celebrated for its offensive capabilities, its impact on defense was equally significant. The design, versatility, and sheer force of the Viking Battle Axe contributed to the sundering of shields and the reshaping of defensive strategies on the battlefield. The Viking Battle Axe was more than just a tool of destruction it was a versatile instrument that could be wielded for both offense and defense. Its design featured a long handle and a wide, curved blade with a sharp edge on one side, allowing it to be used for slashing, chopping, and even thrusting motions. This versatility gave Viking warriors the ability to effectively parry and block incoming attacks while simultaneously threatening their opponents. The extended reach of the battle axe also allowed warriors to engage enemies at a distance, reducing the likelihood of their shields being breached.
One of the most significant impacts of the Viking Battle Axe on defense was its ability to sunder shields. The sheer force generated by a well-executed swing could split wooden shields, leaving opponents vulnerable to follow-up strikes. This destructive power forced adversaries to rethink their defensive formations and strategies. Traditional shield walls, which relied on the strength of interlocking shields to form an impenetrable barrier, became less effective against the forceful blows of the battle axe. This forced warriors to adopt more dynamic and flexible defensive formations to counter the threat posed by the Viking Battle Axe. The psychological aspect of facing an opponent wielding such a formidable weapon could erode the morale of even the most disciplined troops. The distinctive appearance of the battle axe, coupled with the knowledge of its capacity to cleave through defenses, created an aura of fear on the battlefield. This psychological advantage often led opponents to make mistakes, enabling Viking warriors to exploit weaknesses in their adversaries’ defenses.
As a result of these factors, the wikinger axt scharf kaufen prompted a shift in defensive strategies. Warriors began to incorporate a combination of tactics that blended offense and defense, capitalizing on the battle axe’s dual nature. The traditional shield wall formations became more mobile, allowing warriors to adjust their positions rapidly and adapt to changing battlefield dynamics. Additionally, the emphasis on individual combat skills increased, as warriors needed to possess the agility to evade powerful axe strikes while simultaneously seeking openings to exploit. Viking Battle Axe left an indelible mark on the battlefield, not only through its devastating offensive capabilities but also its transformative impact on defense. Its design, versatility, and ability to sunder shields forced a reevaluation of traditional defensive formations and strategies. By reshaping the nature of combat, the battle axe played a significant role in the evolution of tactics during the Viking Age. Its legacy endures in the annals of history as a symbol of Viking prowess and innovation on the battlefield.

The poet Homer famously described his hero Achilles, whose “wrath” is the subject matter of The Iliad, as having been given a stark choice by the gods early on in life. He could live a short life in which he was guaranteed to achieve immortal glory. Or he could opt for a long life that would forever be shrouded in obscurity. That we still speak of Achilles today may underscore which option he chose, even if it took Homer’s artistry to ensure Achilles’s glory survived. But the point is Achilles saw in glory something of supreme value, while perhaps recognizing that a long life by itself, no matter how pleasurable, did not necessarily measure up.
You might wonder if Achilles ever regretted his choice. Not during his lifetime. In Homer’s Odyssey, however, Odysseus—or, as we call him, Ulysses—claims to have visited Achilles in the underworld, reporting that Achilles then preferred the obscure life of a serf on earth to the glorious reign of the King of all the shades in Hades. This was true even with his worldly glory still intact. Even setting aside that Odysseus was a notorious liar, is glory not what it is cracked up to be?
Is glory or fame something of real value? Is it, as it was initially for Achilles, the superior choice? Shakespeare takes up the same issue in his Henry IV, Part One. There, Hotspur, an Achilles-like figure, has such great prowess and courage that he inspires the admiration even of his rival, King Henry. Notwithstanding Hotspur’s defiance and disloyalty, Henry muses about how he prefers Hotspur to his own son, Hal, the future Henry V. Hotspur is fixated on glory, deciding to fight at an inopportune time so as to heighten his glory, even in death.
To sharpen the problem, Shakespeare also gives us an alternative to Hotspur, an extreme at the other end of the spectrum. This is the character of Falstaff. Falstaff lives for his sensual pleasures—eating, drinking, and whoring his obscure life away. As the rapt attention of the commentators proves, his life seems an attractive one too, even when he shows abject cowardice on the battlefield (“the better part of valor is discretion”) or spurns the honor Hotspur worships (“honor is a mere scutcheon”). He uses all his wiles, including warfare itself, only to make money to fund his debauches. But he appeals nonetheless. We might note that the aims of both Falstaff and Hotspur allow for the senseless slaughter of innocent men—which may be Shakespeare’s ultimate comment—but they do so in the pursuit of seemingly worthy but dramatically opposite ends, one for glory, one for seemingly baser physical pleasures.
Homer and Shakespeare give us these ancient and modern characters to have us reflect on what is most valuable in life. How shall I live, as Socrates might ask? Is honor necessary to make life meaningful? Or should the goal be self-preservation and bodily stimulation, which requires the pursuit of money making. In our world of rich celebrities, not to mention the celebrity of wealth itself, it would seem possible to have both. But those outliers should not be allowed to obscure the problem. Midas and Croesus notwithstanding, the ancients still understood that one of the key life choices is between different understandings of what is valuable in living one’s life, and both fame and money making have their claim to superiority and their advocates.

Home prices are about to soar… Here’s the easiest way to profit
From Dr. Steve Sjuggerud, Editor, True Wealth:
The real estate boom is nowhere near done yet…
I know what you’re thinking… “The housing market has already been booming for a while now. How much longer can it go on?”
A lot longer.
The reason is simple: There’s no supply of houses. (It’s hard to believe… but it’s true.)
With no supply, and a ton of demand, home prices can only go one way – up.
Let me show you how much supply is lagging even after a few years of this boom… And then I’ll share the easiest way to make money from this…
Total housing inventory has fallen year-over-year for 24 straight months, according to the National Association of Realtors.
Let’s take a closer look at this idea and what it means for us today…
Here’s a chart of the housing inventory – existing homes that are currently available for sale in the U.S.
As you can see, inventory hit a record low recently. Take a look…
I want you to notice something else on this chart… Inventory hit a record high in 2007 – at the peak in house prices.
The last time housing inventory was at a level similar to today’s was in 2001. Back then, you wanted to be a BUYER of real estate, not a seller.
In short, you want to bet on house prices going higher when there’s no inventory… And you want to bet on house prices going lower when inventory is at record highs.
Now let’s quickly look at another number: new homes being built…
You’d think homebuilders would be taking advantage of the lack of inventory. You’d think they’d be building a ton of homes. But that’s not quite what’s happening yet…
After the big housing bust, builders stopped building homes. It has been nearly a decade, and the rate of building is still “below trend.” Take a look…
Housing starts have increased dramatically from the bottom… But they’re still below average. Building hasn’t caught up with demand yet. And that has kept supply low.
Today, we have a small number of homes being built, and a record low inventory of homes for sale.
Based on that, I believe home prices will soar.
And if that happens, the big beneficiary will be homebuilders…
Homebuilding is a simple business. Buy land, then build and sell houses. It’s highly profitable when housing booms. And I expect the current boom to continue from here.
The easiest way to play this trend is to buy shares of homebuilding companies. And the best one-click way to trade homebuilders is through the iShares U.S. Home Construction Fund (ITB).
ITB holds a basket of homebuilding companies. And I expect it will soar as the current housing boom continues. I urge you to check it out.

aNewDomain.net — Last year at CES 2013, Geonaute showed its very first 360 camera prototypes. This year, execs returned to the ShowStoppers press event at CES 2014 to show off the final and soon-to-ship version of the Geonaute 360 camera. And execs demonstrated a complete range of services for the video camera, too. Here are details, specs and a video demonstration from our Kerry Kinsey.
As a video guy, it’s hard to not be blown away by the Geonaute 360. This camera is equipped with three wide-angle optic lenses, each with its own eight megapixel CMOS sensor. The effect is that you get almost a complete, circular view. The video and panoramic photos you capture go 360° horizontal and 150° vertical. And the Geonaute 360, execs claimed, is the first ever 360 video camera that doesn’t require post processing to stitch images together.
That means you’re able to pull videos and panoramic photos right off the Geonaute 360 — and you’re able to feed them into pretty much any photo or video viewer, too.
Geonaute execs announced a wide array of software and services for the Geonaute 360 at CES 2014. These include Geonaute Studio, which lets you organize and sync up your 360° videos and panoramic photos and play them back. Also announced was the highly-intriguing PlayGeonaute platform. It is, execs said, the first public 360° photo and video sharing web network.
And of course there are apps. PlayGeonaute for Androïd and Apple iOS are free apps that aim to bring your Geonaute 360 creations to your smartphone or tablet. There’s an open API, too, so other vendors are able to take advantage of the platform. The upcoming Oculus VR product is one example of what happens when VR and 360 video blend. Click here for our Mat Lee’s take on the Oculus system.
When will the Geonaute ship? Well, execs were taking pre-orders at CES 2014. We fully expect the first Geonaute 360° action cameras to arrive this spring.

She was lovin' it a little too much.
Manatee, Fla. resident Christine Faith Baker, 47, was arrested after she allegedly offered sexual favors for two McDonald's dollar-menu cheeseburgers, according to the Miami Herald.
An undercover officer invited Baker into his car on Friday and started talking about sex. Baker allegedly said that her fee was two McDoubles -- the dollar-menu version of a double cheeseburger -- costing a grand total of $2.75.
Of course, Baker was also allegedly looking for a tip of another $40 for her services, the Bradenton Herald reported.
The detective bought the burgers and drove to a vacant lot, where other agents arrested Baker on charges of prostitution. It's yet unclear whether she was allowed to eat the delicious doubles before she was taken to jail.
Baker was released on Saturday.

Reading The Crimson Petal and the White is a surreal experience. It has the rare ability in a postmodern novel to transfer you to the Victorian London without bumps in the road, no evidence of being carried there, not even intentional. It could be easily been associated with the major realist text of the XIX century. It is not important to know what fate has decided for Sugar, what is really important is to keep on reading, keep on meeting the fascinating and at times disturbing inhabitants of that luminous yet bleak conglomerate of souls which is the fin de siècle London.
Black Mamba87 said on Feb 14, 2012, 21:37
It's so refreshing when you find a book which is completely out of your comfort zone and it delights you so much that you just don't want it to end.
The Crimson Petal and the White was a) sized more like a brick than any book I would normally be attracted to read and b) Historical fiction which I would normally completely avoid as a genre.
I decided to read it because I had enjoyed the BBC adaptation - again, never normally the basis I would normally choose to read a book on. From the first chapter to the last, Michel Faber had be completely lost in the world of Sugar and her Mr Rackham.
It keeps you hooked like a soap opera, and the plot lulls and falls tugging at every emotion, Faber makes you feel like you are actually in the presence of the characters throughout the book - a secret onlooker privy to all and every tiny important detail.
I would recommend this book to anyone, especially someone who wants to leap out of their comfort zone and read something different for a change.

(I'm quoting some other reviewer on this site, I loved the description).
The modern take on Victorian times already existed - The French Lieutenant's Woman - but this takes it to the extreme. You are definitely there looking from ten inches away at all the horrors that Dickens didn't dare to describe.
The basic plot is an old trope - smart whore crawls her way up in society - and so are the banal subplots (madwoman in the attic, neglected little girl, a couple of repressed Victorians to offset the definitely non-repressed protagonists). Nothing new there then - but this goes on for 700 pages and it's a relentless HOOT. I could say it loses its hammering rhythm around the end, but that still means that you've read 600-plus pages of literary dynamite and it only stops for breath in the very last chapters (predictably, Sugar's life gets boring the more respectable she becomes - yet another trope).
Some books have this rare ability to conjure a whole time and place as a whole and close the real world off - not many, I could mention Buddenbrooks or The Magus. But the "just like I was there" feeling gets a new level here; I actually FELT I was the one screwing Mr Rackham (often, and inventively), or I was the one scratching my hands because of a mild skin condition that might be God knows what venereal disease.

When to harvest honeysuckle, how best to sort and process it
Honeysuckle is a very tasty and healthy berry, rich in vitamins and microelements. At first glance, it may seem that harvesting is a long and arduous process, but this is not the case if you know simple methods and tricks. How to quickly collect honeysuckle from a bush, we will tell in the article.
The content of the article
When to harvest honeysuckle
Honeysuckle ripens in June - a week earlier than strawberries... Wherein:
- in the European part of Russia, the harvest time for early-ripening varieties is June 12-19, mid-ripening - 20-27, late-ripening - after June 28;
- in the Urals, the honeysuckle harvesting season is mid-June, sometimes late May - early autumn;
- in Siberia, early ripening varieties, such as Viola, bear fruit in early summer.
Coloring the berries blue does not yet indicate ripeness, you need to wait 5-7 days... During this time, the fruits will increase, the taste and smell will improve, the pulp will become more tender. Honeysuckle is harvested when at least 75% of the berries are ripe.
Fruits ripen gradually, unevenly, this is especially noticeable in rainy and cold years. Then the collection is carried out in 2 steps. In warm years, the berries ripen almost simultaneously.
Honeysuckle harvesting process
The main disadvantage of honeysuckle is the high crumbling of ripe fruits. Many new varieties have now been developed, most of which have berries attached to the stalk with medium strength. When harvesting, losses due to shedding are no more than 3-5%.
There are varieties that do not crumble at all: Amphora, Roxana, Kamchadalka, Dessertnaya, Morena, Violet.
Harvesting honeysuckle correctly
You can pick the berries by hand. It is better to do this not immediately, but in several approaches.: the ripest and largest at first, then the smallest when ripe just as well.
How to harvest honeysuckle quickly and easily
An alternative to manual collection is shaking off... The method is suitable for varieties with high crumbling. For this, a black film is spread under the bush. They do this until they are fully ripe, so that the berries, which themselves began to crumble, do not get dirty, and they can also be picked.
Important! Use a black film so that the blue fruits are not visible to birds, which can peck on the crop.
To collect, you need to gently shake the bush... The berries fall onto the film, then they are poured into a container.
Also instead of film, use a sheet, burlap, an inverted umbrella... Some people really like the latter method, it is widely used for harvesting honeysuckle on a small scale. The principle is the same: place an inverted umbrella under a bush and shake the branches.
How to quickly sort out honeysuckle
After picking berries by shaking them off the bush, we get a crop contaminated with all kinds of debris - leaves, branches.
It is very difficult to remove all this manually, therefore we offer 2 simple options on how to quickly sort out honeysuckle.
Method one - hair dryer
Pour the berries into a large tray with sides so that they do not roll, and blow off with a hairdryer... Shake the tray slightly. All debris will be blown away by the air stream.
Method two - inclined surface
This the method is widely used in mass collection:
- Find a long inclined surface (for example, a board), with the lower part resting on the floor.
- Spread the film.
- Cover the inclined surface with a wet sheet.
- Pour berries onto an inclined surface.
- The fruit will roll and the debris will linger on the sheet.
How to cook and consume crops
Honeysuckle has many beneficial properties, it contains magnesium, potassium, iodine, iron, as well as vitamins A, C, group B. That is why I want to save all this for the winter. Let's consider the most common methods.
Attention! Among the varieties of honeysuckle, there are decorative. They must not be eaten.
Jam recipe without water:
- We take berries without stalks, cover with sugar 1: 1.
- Leave for 4-5 hours until the juice is released.
- Set on fire, bring to a boil, cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat, wait 8 hours for the berries to absorb the syrup.
- Cook for 15 minutes, stirring constantly, remove the foam.
- Pour into dry, pre-sterilized jars, roll up with sterile lids.
- We take ripe berries, grind with a blender, meat grinder, crush. We use enameled dishes.
- Add water - 1 glass per 1 kg of berries.
- Heat the fruits to + 65 ° C, stirring continuously. We leave for 30 minutes.
- We get the juice using a juicer or manually through the fabric.
- Boil for 3-4 minutes, pour into jars, cover with lids. Next, we pasteurize the cans: half-liter - 10 minutes, liter - 15 minutes.
- If desired, add sugar - 100 g per 1 liter.
Canned compote for the winter
- We make syrup: 300-350 g of sugar per 1 liter of water.
- As soon as the liquid boils, add 1/3 tbsp. berries.
- Boil for up to 2 minutes, remove from heat.
- We insist 10 minutes.
When making honeysuckle compote, you can use other berries or fruits, such as apples.
There is an original recipe with the addition of rhubarb, which has a sour taste.:
- Cooking syrup from 1 liter of water and 3 tbsp. l. Sahara.
- After boiling, put the honeysuckle berries and rhubarb stalks, cut into small pieces.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes.
- We filter and cool.
Varietiesthat can be eaten fresh and canned:
To save energy when harvesting honeysuckle, improvised means, for example, an umbrella or a hair dryer, will allow. It is also important to choose the right time: the berries are removed from the bush when at least 75% of the fruits are ripe.
Considering these factors, growing a crop will only bring joy from eating this tasty and healthy berry. There are many interesting recipes for preparations for the winter, which will enrich the body with useful substances in the cold season.


GM Daewoo hopes to make inroads into the mini-car market with its first such vehicle now on sale in South Korea and due to come to Europe at the start of 2010. It will be assembled at GM plants in India, Vietnam, Columbia and Uzbekistan.
The Matiz Creative is the result of a 295-billion-won ($239 million) 27-month research and development programme based on mini-vehicle designs from Daewoo's US parent company General Motors (GM). The company believes the vehicle will become an industry benchmark in the mini-car world due to its design, performance and safety.
"GM Daewoo has a very bright future. The Matiz Creative showcases that GMDAT is a major manufacturing base for GM Daewoo to produce mini-cars," said Michael Grimaldi, GM Daewoo chief executive.
GM Daewoo Auto and Technology (GMDAT) is South Korea's third-largest carmaker and was formed in 2002 when GM took over the bankrupt Daewoo Motor Co.
South Korea is a test market for the Matiz Creative with its launch there Sep 2. The car will be sold in Europe from early 2010 and will eventually be on sale in about 150 countries.
The car can accommodate five adults and is powered by a new 1,000-cc DOHC engine which has earned Korea's Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle rating. Average fuel economy is put at 6 litres per 100 kilometres.
The company hopes the car will fit an urban lifestyle. "We wanted to make it stand apart from a typical mini-car. We positioned it as a mini-car offered at the price of mini-car but still offering a style to suit urban lifestyles and engine power," said Taewan Kim, vice president of GM Daewoo Design.

Statement on COP21 by Permanent Forum Chair, Professor Megan Davis
Reaching an historic agreement over the weekend at COP 21, also known as the United Nations Climate Change Conference, in Paris was no easy task. United Nations agreements are made by consensus where a large number of States have to consider their political constituents back home. Indigenous peoples around the world, including those who attended COP21, were lobbying States to ensure that language in the agreement would ensure respect for their rights.
For indigenous peoples, climate change is not only an environmental issue but also a human rights issue as it touches upon the core of their existence. Indigenous peoples depend on natural resources for their livelihood and often inhabit fragile ecosystems. Indigenous peoples are also among the world’s most marginalized, impoverished and vulnerable peoples. At the same time, they bear the brunt of climate change and have very few resources to cope with the changes.
For indigenous peoples, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples should be at the heart of any negotiation and implementation process. Indigenous peoples saw the Climate Change Conference in Paris as an opportunity to push for stronger human rights wording not only in the preamble but also in the various articles of the agreement to ensure respect for indigenous peoples’ rights. Sadly, the agreement asks States to merely consider their human rights obligations, rather than comply with them.
The Paris Agreement commits all countries of the world to cut their carbon emissions, which is an enormous step. Whether this will solve the problem of climate change remains to be seen. The agreement sets minimal standards, leaving it up to everyone to implement it in good faith.
I call on all States to make sure that indigenous peoples fully participate in such processes so that the agreement is implemented at the national and local levels in a sustainable way that is in line with indigenous peoples’ traditional knowledge and practices. It is essential that States are mindful of indigenous peoples’ socio-economic limitations as well as their spiritual and cultural attachment to their lands and waters and ensure their free, prior and informed consent in such processes.
To borrow the words of Chief Perry Bellegarde of the Assembly of First Nations in Canada, “the agreement serves as a floor, not a ceiling, and now is the time for action.”
I call on States to adhere to their obligations in respecting the rights of indigenous peoples in order to exceed the minimum standards set in this historic agreement.


TOKYO: Memory chip maker Micron Technology on Wednesday (November 16) began mass production of a new high-capacity, low-power 1-beta dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chip at its factory in Hiroshima, Japan.
Both U.S. Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel and Japanese officials attended a ceremony in Hiroshima to mark the start of large-scale production, highlighting the growing political importance of semiconductors to the two allies. emphasized the
The production of Micron’s cutting-edge chips, which can store a third more data than previous chips, comes at a time when Japan is looking to revive and modernize its once-strong chip industry.
Emmanuel said on Twitter that Wednesday’s launch is an example of how the two countries are working to “strengthen the semiconductor supply chain” and strengthen national security.
The former Chicago mayor has focused on strengthening commercial ties between the two countries to protect supply chains and reduce reliance on China.
The Japanese government is concerned that escalating trade tensions between the United States and China could lead to shortages of semiconductors needed by automakers and others.
The Japanese government provided Micron with ¥46.5 billion (US$332 million) in September to boost the factory’s capacity.
In July, it gave rival memory chip makers Kioxia and Western Digital a ¥93 billion subsidy to help expand production at a Japanese joint venture factory.
DRAM chips are widely used in data centers, personal computers, and other devices.

Chinese peacekeepers build ‘peace square’
UNIFIL and local officials gathered last week at a public school in a south Lebanese village to mark the completion of a “peace square” built over the past five months by the Mission’s peacekeepers from China.
Following request from Al Majadil Public School, UNIFIL Chinese peacekeepers started the work in August 2019. In the end, they built a comprehensive square integrating a standard basketball court, about 600 square metres of awnings and a parking space. The peacekeepers also helped the school renovate or refurbish doors, windows, walls and desks.
During the 16 January ceremony during which the square was handed over to the School, its Principal Malek Hamedi expressed his gratitude to UNIFIL and its Chinese Construction Engineering Unit (CHINCEU), which completed the project.
"We hoped to build such a square three years ago, but we never had the financial and human resources,” he said. “When we asked CHINCEU for assistance, they immediately started working."
The school, which was heavily damaged during the 2006 war, named it "China-Lebanon Peace Square." Since their deployment to UNIFIL in 2015, Chinese peacekeepers have been offering generous support to the school, which currently has about 700 students.
CHINCEU Deputy Commander Major Shen Yanxi said that the peacekeeping officers and soldiers not only completed the tasks to a high standard, but also took initiatives to carry out humanitarian activities benefiting the host communities.
Since its deployment to Lebanon at the end of May last year, the current batch of CHINCEU has completed 29 engineering construction tasks across UNIFIL’s 1,060 square kilometres area of operation in south Lebanon.
UNIFIL currently has more than 400 peacekeepers from China undertaking mainly construction and demining works across the Mission’s area of operation.

Wow! Yesterday was a busy day. Today we will have Christmas 1. It’s so exciting! Brian, Lauren, and Liam will be here shortly and we’ll open presents! Then we’ll spend some time with my sister and her family (and we may even pop in and see my parents for a few minutes on our way home).
Yesterday Tiffany and I did a slew of baking. It started off with pies . . . our regular Apple Crumble Pie for the family, followed by an apple pie that is considered a crossover by Trim Healthy Mama eating plan. Then she also made the pecan pie from Cookie Keto with Kristie. And rounded out the pie category with Pumpkin Pecan Slab Pie–this is the third time I’ve made this since Thanksgiving and we love it.
I made the Cinnamon Butter Bundt cake again, along with the smaller one that is nut and flax free for Tiffany.
The breakfast wraps really worked well for Thanksgiving and were delicious, so I’m going to make those again for tomorrow morning. I have to make my sourdough pizza dough tonight yet, and put it in the refrigerator for tomorrow’s pizza dinner with family. We voted for Christmas dinner and pizza won but if tacos would have been declared up front, it just may have won out.
We’ll be having hamburgers and fries at my sister’s later today. I bought sweet potato fries and some thin burgers and cheese slices. It’ll be a crossover meal but hey, it’s Christmas time and at least it is mostly on-plan. (Unfortunately as I write this, I haven’t yet made the buns to go with this meal . . . so tired . . . mostly because I worked out last night and my shoulder muscles are sore . . . and I must get them done before I go to bed.)
Let’s see, I also made four batches of Pay Off Day Candies. I put it all into a 9×13 pan and will cut it into pieces and bag some up to give as gifts. People love those candies!
Well, it’s an exciting day around here. I hope you are having fun times this week.
Until next time, Merry Christmas Eve,

Who could resist this tiny little ottoman? It’s really heavy for its size but worth its weight! I paid $4 for it at good will and the lady looked at me as though I’d lost my mind, she said that she was going to throw it away! I told her what I was going to do with it and she still looked at me as if I’d lost my mind! Oh well with a little TLC and cleaning it was ready to be restored.
Well here it is! vinyl covered in its glory time, and very dirty. All I used for this project is three denim pant legs, some embroidery thread, and of course a sewing machine.
I measured the circumference of the ottoman and added an extra inch and a half for seams, it took one and a half pant legs that I pieced together. I then measured the height and added on an extra four inches for the top seam and to fold underneath. The bottom piece of this ottoman looked like it had been sitting in something! so I removed it and cut a new cardboard bottom. Then I traced it on a piece of denim and also added an extra inch to fold under and glue to the cardboard
Embroidery on denim is really in these days so I did the blanket stitch around the top of the ottoman. When I completed my stitching I pulled the finished piece over the ottoman as tightly as I could and glued (with my glue gun) the main part to the bottom of the ottoman, as well as the bottom piece to the cardboard.
All there was left to do was attach the bottom piece. You can use a staple gun but......I received a Brad nailer from Santa this year and was dying to put it to use, it made a clean finish to the bottom. So now my vintage chair that I covered with denim a few years ago has a matching foot stool!

Julie Inman Grant, Head of the Australian E-Safety Office, announced that a notification was sent to Twitter regarding hate speech on the platform.
Grant said Twitter will be fined A$700,000 for each day of delay if it does not take action against hate speech in 28 days.
Stating that Twitter is responsible for one out of every 3 online hate speeches reported in Australia, Grant pointed out that the platform should take precautions and protect its users.
Grant noted that they received more complaints about hate speech after Elon Musk bought the platform in 2022.
The UN also drew attention to the same issue.
In a written statement from the United Nations (UN) in January, the increase in the “use of racist terminology” on Twitter after it was bought by Elon Musk was condemned.
In the statement, it was stated that there was a need for “deeper social media accountability” in the face of hate expressions used against people of African descent on this platform.

We have developed an innovative ultrasonic transducer system (CHOT) which is optically excited by means of lasers. It can be used both for generation and detection of narrowband ultrasound and provides non-contact (or even remote), couplant-free generation and/or detection. It has also the advantage of being inexpensive to manufacture and the simplicity of its concept makes it ideal for industrial applications. In this study we present results where CHOTs have been used both for excitation and detection of surface acoustic waves. An initial theoretical model is also presented which describes the principle of operation.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) – Former Philippine President Joseph Estrada has been put on a ventilator in a hospital to help him breathe after being infected with the coronavirus, his son said on Tuesday.
Estrada, 83, the most prominent Filipino politician to test positive for COVID-19, was hospitalized over a week ago and was initially recovering well, said his son, former Senator Jinggoy Estrada .
But on Monday, “my father’s condition suffered a setback,” he said in a medical bulletin posted on Facebook, adding that doctors had decided to put the former president on a ventilator “to improve intake. oxygen and avoid straining his breathing. mechanism. “
“My father has always been a fighter and I hope that with the help of your prayers he will win this battle,” he said.
Another son of Estrada, former Senator JV Ejercito, also called for prayer, saying in a tweet that “COVID is unpredictable”.
Estrada, a former action movie star and longtime politician, won the presidency in 1998 with one of the biggest margins in Filipino electoral history. But his six-year term was cut short after facing allegations of looting and was ousted in January 2001 during massive protests. He has denied the accusations which he says were fabricated by his opponents.
A special anti-corruption court convicted him of looting in 2007. His successor, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, pardoned him in a gesture that restored his civil and political rights and allowed him to make an unsuccessful run-off for the presidency. in 2010. He won elections as mayor of Manila in 2013 and has been out of politics since his term ended in 2019.
Separately, Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana, who is leading efforts to deal with the pandemic in the Philippines, said he tested positive for the coronavirus on Tuesday and would go into isolation. The 72-year-old retired army general, who said he had no symptoms, is one of many in President Rodrigo Duterte’s cabinet to contract the disease. Lorenzana’s cabinet colleagues have all recovered.
Duterte has handed the metropolis of Manila and four outlying provinces, an area of more than 25 million people, back to lockdown amid an alarming spike in infections. The Philippines has reported more than 812,000 cases of COVID-19, including 13,817 deaths, the second-highest total in Southeast Asia after Indonesia.
