San Diego water officials declare drought over, plead with state regulators to lift regulations
Water officials in San Diego County announced Thursday that the region’s drought has ended.
The San Diego County Water Authority, the region’s water wholesaler, made the announcement in an ongoing effort to convince regulators in Sacramento to lift emergency drought regulations on urban water districts throughout the state.
“I think it sends an important message to residents and businesses that we have not been experiencing drought conditions here in San Diego County,” said Dana Friehauf, water resources manager with the authority. “We’re requesting the governor and state water board rescind the state emergency regulations.
“But it’s so important for people to continue to use water wisely,” she added. “We don’t’ know what the next few years will bring.”
Only Gov. Jerry Brown has the authority to declare an end to the statewide drought. California doesn’t have an official definition for when such an emergency starts or stops.
However, the State Water Resources Control Board will vote on Feb. 8 whether to continue emergency conservation rules that have been in place for the past 18 months.
Those rules require districts to submit monthly reports on water consumption and continue so-called stress tests, which certify that those suppliers have enough inventory to withstand three straight years of drought. They also include prohibitions on wasteful water use by residents.
During a hearing last week, water district officials throughout California, including from San Diego County, told the state water board that extending the emergency drought rules statewide would erode credibility with residents and make it harder to convince people to adopt strict conservation efforts in the future.
The San Diego County Water Authority has long maintained that efforts such as investments in seawater desalination, as well as water transfers from the Colorado River, have insulated the region from the effects of drought — voicing concern that the conservation rules make it harder to attract and retain businesses to the region.
At the same time, conservation groups have called for a continuation of the emergency rules at least through the end of the spring. The push is based on concerns that urban water use could rebound, ending months of dramatic conservation efforts.
“Our massive amount of imported water and desalination comes at a tremendous cost, and declaring an end to our water supply management deficiencies in order to attract businesses and growth will ensure we are left to deal with long-term negative consequences both locally and throughout our state well into the future,” said Matt O’Malley, executive director of San Diego Coastkeeper.
“By defining water scarcity strictly as short-term availability as opposed to water supply sustainability, the Water Authority is putting our region’s long term environmental and economic security at risk,” he added.
Urban water users have saved an estimated 756 billion gallons since June 2015, compared with usage during the baseline year of 2013.
Time will tell whether residents will continue to conserve water though limiting landscape irrigation, controlling shower times and otherwise changing behavior.
Some water savings should likely continue for those who’ve taken more permanent steps to reduce usage, such as ripping out thirsty lawns.
Beverly Glavas, 61, put in drought-tolerant landscaping in her home in Fallbrook. She said she’s dedicated to conservation no matter what weather conditions bring.
“I don’t’ think it’s going to change anything I’m doing,” she said. “I don’t think just because it’s over with, I should waste water.”
But it’s too soon to know if lawns will come back into style, said Rajan Brown with Heaviland Landscape Management, a large San Diego-based commercial landscape management company.
“The drought aspect is hard to tell because projects are always slow in the middle of winter,” he said. “You’ll have to wait until late spring or summer to see how the rains will impact behavior.”
While conditions have improved dramatically across the state, much of southern California, including San Diego County, remains in a moderate to severe drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.
San Diego and state water officials have questioned the accuracy of the federal drought metric as it applies to California.
“The U.S. Drought Monitor doesn’t recognize the supply availability,” Friehauf said. “It’s flawed in our opinion. It isn’t a good judge of local drought conditions.”
The emergency drought rules initially mandated a reduction in statewide urban water use of 25 percent. That was eased considerably last year at the behest of scores of water districts throughout the state.
The state’s conservation mandate caused some districts to lose considerable revenue because of their customers’ reduced water use. It’s a challenge for agencies because many of their capital projects and infrastructure expenses are fixed for years or even decades.
Brown has directed the state water board to design permanent conservation rules for water districts that will stay in place regardless of whether California is in drought, including permanent caps or indoor and outdoor water use.
The water board is expected release its final report on the new rules in coming weeks. Those standards would likely be phased in starting in early 2018, and in some instances, will require lawmakers to pass additional legislation.

PC Server 325 Tower Cluster Example
The network-crossover cable, sometimes referred to as the cluster's heartbeat, provides the dedicated, point-to-point communication link between the servers.
This cable connects the IBM 100/10 PCI EtherJet Adapters (one in each server) and enables the servers to continuously monitor each other's functional status.
The servers connect to the public network using the Ethernet controllers on the system boards.
Using the public-network connection and the dedicated heartbeat link together ensures that a single network-hardware failure will not initiate a failover situation.
The only difference between the hardware configuration of Server A and the hardware configuration of Server B is the SCSI ID settings for the ServeRAID adapters. Channels 1 and 2 of the ServeRAID adapter in Server A are set to SCSI ID 7. Channel 1 of the ServeRAID adapter in Server B is set to SCSI ID 6, because it shares the same SCSI bus as Channel 1 of the ServeRAID adapter in Server A. Channel 2 of the ServeRAID adapter in Server B connects to the nonshared drives and is set to SCSI ID 7 to avoid a conflict with the CD-ROM drive, which is set to SCSI ID 6. On both ServeRAID adapters, Channel 3 is available for use as a quorum-arbitration link with the Microsoft Cluster Server software, or for future expansion with the Vinca clustering software.
In addition to the standard features of the PC Server 3518, the expansion enclosure contains a power-supply upgrade option, an additional backplane, two enhanced SCSI repeaters, and cables. The maximum achievable hot-swap storage capacity 3 for this enclosure is 163.8 GB using eighteen 9.1 GB drives. However, this example shows only eight drives, which leaves space for future expansion.
To help maintain high availability, the eight hard disk drives are defined as two RAID level-5 logical drives (arrays B and C). To further increase the availability of these shared drives, each ServeRAID adapter has its own hot-spare (HSP) drive. A hot-spare drive is a disk drive that is defined for automatic use in the event of a drive failure. If a physical drive fails and it is part of a RAID level-1 or RAID level-5 logical drive, the ServeRAID adapter will automatically start to rebuild the data on the hot-spare drive.
Note: ServeRAID adapters cannot share hot-spare drives. To maintain high availability and enable the automatic-rebuild feature, you must define a hot-spare drive for each ServeRAID adapter. The jumpers on the backplane in Bank D are set for Bank D and for high addressing (SCSI IDs 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13). A cable connects the Bank C and Bank D backplanes, creating one continuous SCSI bus.
Channel 1 of the ServeRAID adapter in Server A connects to the enhanced SCSI repeater that connects to Bank C, and Channel 1 of the ServeRAID adapter in Server B connects to the enhanced SCSI repeater that connects to Bank D. The enhanced SCSI repeaters contain circuits that can automatically sense the functional status of the server. When the SCSI repeater circuitry detects that the server attached to it is failing or offline, the SCSI repeater automatically enables termination for that end of the SCSI bus. This helps increase the availability of the shared disks and enables the serviceability of the failing or offline server.
Ideally, the servers and storage enclosures are connected to different electrical circuits, however, this is rarely possible. To help prevent the loss of data and to maintain the availability of the shared disks during a power outage or power fluctuation, always connect the servers and expansion enclosures to uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

In November 2015 AASECT (the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists) published a brand-new Position on Sexual Expression including Orientation and Identity. We in London Sex and Relationship Therapy heartily applaud this statement, that has a great deal to offer.
The AASECT statement is not perfect. We have a few more than nitpicking reservations: Their statement that "sexuality is central to the human experience" is insensitive and possibly offensive to asexuals. And it might have been helpful to try to be somewhat more explicit in what they mean to include in their general statement, to make sure people get that it certainly covers BDSM / kink, and hopefully that it intends to include issues about bodily autonomy, porn, sex work, gender, genderqueer and non-binary gender, too... A commentary on the Position statement by psychologist and blogger Russell Stambaugh, who participated in the drafting process, also goes in the latter direction.
This is especially significant when recently in the UK the process to expand the joint statement against gay "conversion" therapy into a wider-based Memorandum of Understanding ran into some obstacles and uncertainties, which were so serious that Dominic Davies, the founder and CEO of Pink Therapy, felt he had to resign from the BACP (February 2016), and a substantial number of therapists wrote an Open Letter to the BACP in his support. Happily, this has ended positively in the BACP endorsing the MOU. It is very much to be hoped that all organisations involved in the consultation process will line up, and the UK will soon have an ethical position on the important matter of "conversion therapy" adequate for the 21st century.
But overall the statement is a great step in the right direction, and at the moment ahead of where we are in the UK. We applaud AASECT for having produced this, and hope that senior professionals in the UK will take note of it.

* Year net income $3.88 bln, vs forecast $3.27 bln
* Combined ratio improves 0.5 point to 98.4 pct
* Dividend unchanged at 17 Swiss francs
* Shares up 0.8 percent (Releads, adds shares, analyst comment)
ZURICH, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Zurich Insurance beat forecasts with a 3 percent rise in 2012 net profit after big fourth-quarter investment gains offset charges taken against its German business and Storm Sandy-related payouts.
Strong growth at recently acquired Latin American and Malaysian businesses helped boost margins at the Swiss insurer which reported full-year profit of $3.88 billion, compared with a forecast for $3.27 billion in a Reuters poll.
“Realised (fourth-quarter) investment gains of $946 million were much higher than expected. We estimated $30 million, in Q3 Zurich had $15 million - and that explains the bottom line beat,” Helvea analyst Daniel Bischof said on Thursday.
The Swiss-based insurer, whose 6.6 percent dividend yield is already the highest among Switzerland’s biggest companies, said it would pay a dividend of 17 francs, unchanged from the payout on 2011 profit.
“The integration of our acquired insurance businesses in Latin America and Malaysia is progressing well and contributing meaningfully to growth as evidenced in the strong contribution to profitability from these areas,” chief executive Martin Senn said.
Zurich’s combined ratio, a measure of underwriting profitability, was 98.4 percent, a 0.5 point improvement and compared with a forecast for 99.4 percent.
Shares in Zurich, whose rivals include Aegon and Axa, were 0.8 percent higher at 261 Swiss francs by 0950 GMT, ahead of a 0.4 percent advance in a European insurance sector index.
The group said its results were hit by above average levels of catastrophe, large and weather-related losses, including Storm Sandy, as well as charges in Germany.
In October, the company said it would take a $550 million hit to third-quarter pretax profit after a review showed its German arm had not set aside enough money to cover claims that could be made years after policies expired.
The group said on Thursday that, as a result of the review of its German business, it had raised claims provisions in the fourth quarter by a total of around $130 million.
“A number of negative items, including Sandy and the additional reserve strengthening in Germany led to the uninspiring Q4 operating performance,” said Bischof.
“Trading at around 1.2 times book value. We believe upside potential is limited at this stage and we prefer some of the cheaper non-life oriented names such as Bâloise and Allianz.” (Reporting by Martin de Sa‘Pinto; Editing by Dan Lalor)

Blizzard Posts Teaser for Next Title
9:16 AM | Michael Eilers | Comment on this story
For quite some time now, Blizzard Entertainment has been dropping egregious hints that they will be announcing a new title in September; they've even gone as far to schedule two press conferences for ECTS next week, including one on Sunday morning and one Monday. Among the various hints they have dropped so far (for those not following the trail of crumbs) are clues that the game will be very different than anything they have done before and that it will have nothing to do with the current Blizzard "franchises" of WarCraft, StarCraft or Diablo.
Blizzard's recent hiring frenzy is also adding fuel to the fire; they have been looking for 3D level designers with Quake 3 Arena and Unreal Tournament experience, and have also hired away a former id Software member in the recent past. No one has ever doubted that Blizzard is the master of hype in the video game world, but this time they very well may top themselves.
Today if you go the Blizzard web site, you will get a small "teaser" -- not much to go on, but we won't spoil your fun by telling you about it here. Just click.
Remember that IMG will have a staff member at ECTS to bring you live reports of all the action and announcements, so stay tuned -- we will even do weekend updates, so check back Saturday and Sunday as well. Of course you can always share your pre-announcement speculations in our Forums.

KRASNOYARSK, August 5 (Itar-Tass) — Russia’s Far Eastern city of Krasnoyarsk once again is choking on smoke from wildfires after a short breathing space brought by winds and rains.
In the north of the Krasnoyarsk region 53 wildfires have engulfed an area of 5,816 hectares. Firemen have managed to reduce the number of major fires to two, and one of them has been localized.
According to the regional centre for forest fires, most fires, 47 (5,592 hectares), rage in remote areas far from settlements and forest roads, and aircraft are used to combat them. Firemen and volunteers put out another four fires covering an area of 64 hectares. “There is no threat to the local settlements,” department sources said.
All in all about 1,000 people take part in firefighting efforts. They are assisted by almost 200 units of hardware and ten aircraft, including two Il-76 planes with water dumping equipment.
Northern winds have driven dense smoke from wildfires to Krasnoyarsk and its neighborhood, as well as to Khakassia. Specialists from the regional Rospotrebnadzor consumer rights watchdog monitor the ecological situation in Krasnoyarsk and the region daily. Maximum allowable concentrations of harmful substances have been exceeded in two districts (Motygino and Yenisei), where most wildfires are fixed.
An emergency situation regime was imposed in the Krasnoyarsk region on July 26. Local residents are advised not to go to forests and observe fire safety rules.
All in all 2,190 wildfires have been fixed in the region this year. Wildfires have destroyed or damaged about 266,000 hectares of taiga.

Jan Luyken (1649 - April 5, 1712)
Christ heals the possessed Mark Chapter 3
From The Bowyer Bible in Bolton Museum, England. Print 4234
Robert Bowyer (bap. 18 June 1758 – 4 June 1834) was a British miniature painter and publisher.
Bowyer sought to illustrate every aspect of the Bible world by hunting all over Europe and Britain for appropriate images.
The result was The Bowyer Bible now in Bolton Museum
It consists of 45 volumes comprising of: Old Testament, 23 volumes and 2315 engravings; Apocrypha, 3 volumes and 959 engravings; New Testament, 19 volumes and 3019 engravings
It took over 30 years to compile and is presently undergoing restoration
Jan Luyken was a Dutch poet, illustrator and engraver
He and his son, Casper (1672-1708), are considered the most important book illustrators of their time in the Netherlands
Deeply religious, they were sometimes pilloried.
The print above illustrates the story in Mark 3 at the beginning of Christ`s public ministry
It is one of the strangest chapters in Mark`s Gospel
There is an account of Jesus' miraculous healings and exorcisms:
"11 And whenever unclean spirits saw him they would fall down before him and shout, “You are the Son of God.”12 He warned them sternly not to make him known."
Then follows an account of the appointment of the twelve apostles
After this, Christ goes back home again. But although he is mobbed, he receives a hostile reception from his family and the scribes. His family do not recognise him as the Messiah and thought he had become insane.
The scribes accuse him of being possessed by evil spirits:
"20 He came home.Again [the] crowd gathered, making it impossible for them even to eat.21 When his relatives heard of this they set out to seize him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”22 The scribes who had come from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “By the prince of demons he drives out demons.”
Of this passage and the following verses one commentator has said with deliberate understatement:
" Mark's frankness in impressive" (Cranfield)
Jesus quickly disposes of the scribes` charges of demonic possession. He is clearly angry
But then he goes on to deal with his family. And it is not pleasant. He rejects them including it would appear on the face of it, Mary his mother:
"31 His mother and his brothers arrived. Standing outside they sent word to him and called him.32 A crowd seated around him told him, “Your mother and your brothers [and your sisters] are outside asking for you.”33 But he said to them in reply, “Who are my mother and [my] brothers?”34 And looking around at those seated in the circle he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers.35 [For] whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother.”
One can only imagine the reaction to these words.
Mary would no doubt have then recalled the words of Simeon at the time of the Presentation at the Temple:
"And a sword will pierce your very soul"
It would have felt like it.
Those who consider that Jesus is an agent of the Devil, rather than God, are warned of the danger of never being forgiven (the Sin against the Holy Spirit). The disciples, on the other hand, are pronounced members of Jesus' family, members of the family of God, and this because they do God's will.
There are similar passages but very much softer in the other Synoptic Gospels: Luke 8:20-21; and Matthew 12
But they are not quite as frank, sharp and as brutal as that narrated in Mark
This dismissal of Mary and his family reminds us of the similar dismissal of Mary at the Wedding of Cana
But it should be noted that the family members have not included "father" as Joseph had obviously died well before the commencement of Jesus' ministry.
Yet, Jesus continues the family description without "father", since the father of this new family of brothers is God himself.
The incident is not among the incidents specifically recalled in the Mysteries of the Rosary
In his homily at Altötting (Monday, 11 September 2006), Pope Benedict XVI took this treatment of Mary head on when he discussed The Wedding Feast of Cana as recounted in John
"We can understand, I think, very well the attitude and words of Mary, yet we still find it very hard to understand Jesus' answer.
In the first place, we don't like the way he addresses her: “Woman”.
Why doesn't he say: “Mother”? But this title really expresses Mary's place in salvation history.
It points to the future, to the hour of the crucifixion, when Jesus will say to her: “Woman, behold your son. Son, behold your mother” (cf. Jn 19:26-27).
It anticipates the hour when he will make the woman, his Mother, the Mother of all his disciples. On the other hand, the title “Woman” recalls the account of the creation of Eve: Adam, surrounded by creation in all its magnificence, experiences loneliness as a human being.
Then Eve is created, and in her Adam finds the companion whom he longed for; and he gives her the name “woman”.
In the Gospel of John, then, Mary represents the new, the definitive woman, the companion of the Redeemer, our Mother: the name, which seemed so lacking in affection, actually expresses the grandeur of Mary's enduring mission.
Yet we like even less what Jesus at Cana then says to Mary: “Woman, what have I to do with you? My hour has not yet come” (Jn 2:4).
We want to object: you have a lot to do with her! It was Mary who gave you flesh and blood, who gave you your body, and not only your body: with the “yes” which rose from the depths of her heart she bore you in her womb and with a mother's love she gave you life and introduced you to the community of the people of Israel.
But if this is how we speak to Jesus, then we are already well along the way towards understanding his answer.
Because all this should remind us that at the incarnation of Jesus two dialogues took place; the two go together and blend into one.
First, there is Mary’s dialogue with the Archangel Gabriel, where she says: “Let it be with me according to your word” (Lk 1:38). But there is a text parallel to this, so to speak, within God himself, which we read about in the Letter to the Hebrews, when it says that the words of Psalm 40 became a kind of dialogue between the Father and the Son, a dialogue which set in motion the Incarnation.
The Eternal Son says to the Father: “Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body you have prepared for me ... See, I have come to do your will” (Heb 10:5-7; cf. Ps 40:6-8). The “yes” of the Son: “I have come to do your will”, and the “yes” of Mary: “Let it be with me according to your word” .
This double “yes” becomes a single “yes”, and thus the Word becomes flesh in Mary.
In this double “yes” the obedience of the Son is embodied, and by her own “yes” Mary gives him that body.
“Woman, what have I to do with you?” Ultimately, what each has to do with the other is found in this double “yes” which resulted in the Incarnation. The Lord’s answer points to this point of profound unity. It is precisely to this that he points his Mother.
Here, in their common “yes” to the will of the Father, an answer is found.
We too need to learn always anew how to progress towards this point; there we will find the answer to our questions.
If we take this as our starting-point, we can now also understand the second part of Jesus' answer: “My hour has not yet come”.
Jesus never acts completely alone, and never for the sake of pleasing others.
The Father is always the starting-point of his actions, and this is what unites him to Mary, because she wished to make her request in this same unity of will with the Father.
And so, surprisingly, after hearing Jesus' answer, which apparently refuses her request, she can simply say to the servants: “Do whatever he tells you” (Jn 2:5).
Jesus is not a wonder-worker, he does not play games with his power in what is, after all, a private affair. No, he gives a sign, in which he proclaims his hour, the hour of the wedding-feast, the hour of union between God and man.
He does not merely “make” wine, but transforms the human wedding-feast into an image of the divine wedding-feast, to which the Father invites us through the Son and in which he gives us every good thing, represented by the abundance of wine.
The wedding-feast becomes an image of that moment when Jesus pushed love to the utmost, let his body be rent and thus gave himself to us for ever, having become completely one with us - a marriage between God and man.
The hour of the Cross, the hour which is the source of the Sacrament, in which he gives himself really to us in flesh and blood, puts his Body into our hands and our hearts, this is the hour of the wedding feast.
Thus a momentary need is resolved in a truly divine manner and the initial request is superabundantly granted. Jesus' hour has not yet arrived, but in the sign of the water changed into wine, in the sign of the festive gift, he even now anticipates that hour.
Jesus’ “hour” is the Cross; his definitive hour will be his return at the end of time.
He continually anticipates also this definitive hour in the Eucharist, in which, even now, he always comes to us.
And he does this ever anew through the intercession of his Mother, through the intercession of the Church, which cries out to him in the Eucharistic prayers: “Come, Lord Jesus!”. In the Canon of the Mass, the Church constantly prays for this “hour” to be anticipated, asking that he may come even now and be given to us.
And so we want to let ourselves be guided by Mary, by the Mother of Graces of Altötting, by the Mother of all the faithful, towards the “hour” of Jesus.
Let us ask him for the gift of a deeper knowledge and understanding of him.
And may our reception of him not be reduced to the moment of communion alone.
Jesus remains present in the sacred Host and he awaits us constantly.
Here in Altötting, the adoration of the Lord in the Eucharist has found a new location in the old treasury. Mary and Jesus go together. Through Mary we want to continue our converse with the Lord and to learn how to receive him better. Holy Mother of God, pray for us, just as at Cana you prayed for the bride and the bridegroom! "
Blessed Pope John Paul II in his homily for the Jubilee of Consecrated Life (Wednesday, 2 February 2000) said of this passage in Mark:
"Invited to leave everything to follow Christ, you, consecrated men and women, no longer define your life by family, by profession or by earthly interests, and you choose the Lord as your only identifying mark.
Thus you acquire a new family identity.
The divine Teacher's words apply particularly to you: "Here are my mother and my brethren" (cf. Mk 3: 35).
The invitation to renunciation, as you know well, is not meant to leave you "without a family" but to make you the first and distinctive members of the "new family", a witness and prophetic example for all whom God wishes to call and bring into his house.
Dear friends, at every moment of your life may the Virgin Mary be close to you as an example and support. Simeon disclosed to her the mystery of the Son and the sword that would "pierce through your own soul also" (Lk 2: 35)"
Blessed Pope John Paul II also addressed the matter at length in his Encyclical Redemptoris Mater. Here is a short extract
"This same shift into the sphere of spiritual values is seen even more clearly in another response of Jesus reported by all the Synoptics. When Jesus is told that "his mother and brothers are standing outside and wish to see him," he replies: "My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it" (cf. Lk. 8:20-21). This he said "looking around on those who sat about him," as we read in Mark (3:34) or, according to Matthew (12:49), "stretching out his hand towards his disciples."
These statements seem to fit in with the reply which the twelve- year-old Jesus gave to Mary and Joseph when he was found after three days in the Temple at Jerusalem.
Now, when Jesus left Nazareth and began his public life throughout Palestine, he was completely and exclusively "concerned with his Father's business" (cf. Lk. 2:49).
He announced the Kingdom: the "Kingdom of God" and "his Father's business," which add a new dimension and meaning to everything human, and therefore to every human bond, insofar as these things relate to the goals and tasks assigned to every human being.
Within this new dimension, also a bond such as that of "brotherhood" means something different from "brotherhood according to the flesh" deriving from a common origin from the same set of parents.
"Motherhood," too, in the dimension of the Kingdom of God and in the radius of the fatherhood of God himself, takes on another meaning. In the words reported by Luke, Jesus teaches precisely this new meaning of motherhood.
Is Jesus thereby distancing himself from his mother according to the flesh? Does he perhaps wish to leave her in the hidden obscurity which she herself has chosen?
If this seems to be the case from the tone of those words, one must nevertheless note that the new and different motherhood which Jesus speaks of to his disciples refers precisely to Mary in a very special way.
Is not Mary the first of "those who hear the word of God and do it"? And therefore does not the blessing uttered by Jesus in response to the woman in the crowd refer primarily to her?
Without any doubt, Mary is worthy of blessing by the very fact that she became the mother of Jesus according to the flesh ("Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts that you sucked"), but also and especially because already at the Annunciation she accepted the word of God, because she believed it, because she was obedient to God, and because she "kept" the word and "pondered it in her heart" (cf. Lk. 1:38, 45; 2:19, 51) and by means of her whole life accomplished it.
Thus we can say that the blessing proclaimed by Jesus is not in opposition, despite appearances, to the blessing uttered by the unknown woman, but rather coincides with that blessing in the person of this Virgin Mother, who called herself only "the handmaid of the Lord" (Lk. 1:38). If it is true that "all generations will call her blessed" (cf. Lk. 1:48), then it can be said that the unnamed woman was the first to confirm unwittingly that prophetic phrase of Mary's Magnificat and to begin the Magnificat of the ages.
If through faith Mary became the bearer of the Son given to her by the Father through the power of the Holy Spirit, while preserving her virginity intact, in that same faith she discovered and accepted the other dimension of motherhood revealed by Jesus during his messianic mission.
One can say that this dimension of motherhood belonged to Mary from the beginning, that is to say from the moment of the conception and birth of her Son.
From that time she was "the one who believed."
But as the messianic mission of her Son grew clearer to her eyes and spirit, she herself as a mother became ever more open to that new dimension of motherhood which was to constitute her "part" beside her Son.
Had she not said from the very beginning: "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word" (Lk. 1:38)? Through faith Mary continued to hear and to ponder that word, in which there became ever clearer, in a way "which surpasses knowledge" (Eph. 3:19), the self-revelation of the living God.
Thus in a sense Mary as Mother became the first "disciple" of her Son, the first to whom he seemed to say: "Follow me," even before he addressed this call to the Apostles or to anyone else (cf. Jn. 1:43)."

Bixi goes bust: Future of Vancouver bike share program uncertain
Bixi bike share systems have already been set up in Boston, London, New York, Toronto, Montreal and others. (CTV)
CTV British Columbia
Published Monday, January 20, 2014 2:54PM PST
The Quebec-based company tasked with providing bikes for Vancouver’s new bike share program has filed for bankruptcy protection.
Bixi faces $47-million in debt over its public bike system in Montreal and the city refuses to lend it any more money to keep its wheels spinning.
Montreal propped up the bike rental company with $37-million in loans just two years ago.
Bixi also owes millions to the city of Toronto.
The bankruptcy news throws the city of Vancouver’s bike share program into uncertainty.
Vancouver’s bike program was initially supposed to launch early this year but was delayed over Bixi’s financial issues.
Late last year, Non-Partisan Association councillors said Bixi’s economic troubles were a sign Vancouver should put the brakes on the program temporarily.
But Councillor Heather Deal said Vancouver -- unlike other cities -- wouldn’t take on a contract with loan guarantees, so it would be protected.
Vancouver’s bike share program was due to have 250 bikes equipped with GPS and 25 stations.
It would eventually see a total of 1,500 bikes at 150 stations, which would be located every two to three blocks and feature helmet dispensers for safe riding.
Memberships would cost $95 per year, $20 per month or $5 per day, and the city would receive 50 per cent of the profits.
Bixi started in Montreal five years ago but quickly expanded to the U.S. and Australia.
The company has apparently been looking to sell off those operations to raise capital, but has been unsuccessful in finding a buyer.
With 14 operations in different municipalities, critics say Bixi has spread itself too thin, and doesn’t have a viable business plan to sustain the operation.
New York and Chicago are withholding payments totalling $5.6-million because of delays and glitches with Bixi software that's affecting their bike-sharing programs.

The main themes in “The Hill We Climb” are hope, birthright and legacy, and diversity and unity. Hope: The poem’s message is a hopeful one, asserting that a new “dawn” is now breaking in which Americans have the opportunity to create a more just and inclusive society.
Who was the first poet to read at a presidential inauguration?
With her public recitation, Angelou became the second poet in history to read a poem at a presidential inauguration, and the first African American and woman. (Robert Frost was the first inaugural poet, at the 1961 inauguration of John F. Kennedy.)
Why poetry is so important?
Poetry is a form of expression. Writing it lets us get out our feelings and thoughts on a subject while reading it encourages us to connect and find meaning in our experiences. Poetry can have a positive impact on the social and emotional learning of children. It may offer them a new way of thinking about something.
Do poets make good money?
Many of the most successful poets these days are poetry professors, so they make their money teaching—and that cool $75,000 average puts you at the high end of your profession (source).

What is the hill we climb a metaphor for?
Later in the poem she repeats the metaphor of climbing a hill, and compares the challenges of our country as being lost in a forest, while anticipating moving from the forest to an open area sometimes called a glade. Example: “That is the promise to glade, the hill we climb if only we dare it.
What figurative language is used in the hill we climb?
Personification. The poet states that “history has its eyes on us.” This is an example of personification. The poet personifies history to emphasize to the American people the historical importance of the choices they make.
What poetic devices are used in the hill we climb?
Gorman makes use of several literary devices in ‘The Hill We Climb. ‘ These include but are not limited to anaphora, enjambment, and allusion. The latter is one of the most important devices in the poem.

I bulged by L4/L5 disc back in 97. I had shooting back down my left leg and my left hip muscles were constantly irritated. I had a microdiscectemy and laminectemy in 98 after about a year of doing various things to no avail. The surgery relieved most of the pain, but not completely.
Over the years, the pain gradually subsided but never went away. However, my left foot and leg gradually got weaker and number. If I jog, I have to really concentrate on keeping my left foot from slapping the ground. If I look at my two legs, I can definitely see that my left leg is smaller.
My left leg constantly feels half numb and weak. And it always feels like someone is stepping on my foot, especially when I'm not lying down.
I saw a neurosurgeon and he said because of scar tissues, it's difficult to do a second surgery. Is there's any surgical procedure that can be done to get rid of this numbness, tingling, and weakness sensation? I feel all I need a just a tiny bit more space around my nerve.

Coble receives endorsement from NRA group
Published: Friday, March 19, 2010 at 10:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 19, 2010 at 9:49 a.m.
FAIRFAX, Va. | The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund is endorsing Rep. Howard Coble, R-6th, for re-election to the U.S. House of Representatives.
“While serving in the House and as a senior-ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, Congressman Coble has consistently supported the constitutional rights of law-abiding gun owners and sportsmen and has demonstrated a strong commitment to the Second Amendment and our country’s rich hunting heritage,” said Chris W. Cox, chairman of NRA-PVF. “Because of his unwavering pro-gun support and his leadership role in advancing Second Amendment issues in Congress, Howard Coble earned an ‘A’ rating and endorsement from NRA-PVF.”
Coble voted for legislation enacted to prohibit gun confiscation during states of emergency and prevent bogus lawsuits aimed and bankrupting the firearms industry. He is also a cosponsor of the national Right-to-Carry reciprocity bill that would allow any person with a valid concealed firearm carrying license or permit, issued by a state, to carry a concealed firearm in any state.
Coble helped restore self-defense rights in Washington, D.C., by voting for the D.C. Personal Protection Act. He cosponsored legislation to force reform at the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

There’s something about Washington’s 2014 election that isn’t quite right.
Even after getting its official kickoff with last week’s filing period, it feels a bit off.
Hmmm, what is it that’s missing? Certainly the lack of any statewide races other than some sleepy state Supreme Court “battles” causes a lack of focus. But that happens every 12 years when non-gubernatorial years sync up with the non-U.S. Senate years, caused by staggered, six-year terms.
It means that Washington will not be involved in the biggest national election story of 2014 — control of the U.S. Senate. But we’ve been left out of the national campaign story before.
We do have all 10 congressional districts on the ballot. But thanks in part to how we tend to gather together with like-minded people and, in part, to a state redistricting system that creates safe districts for incumbents, there aren’t any real contests.
The Washington Senate could turn over from the Republican-dominated Majority Coalition Caucus to Democratic control. But even that is something of an inside-baseball conversation and one that half of state voters can watch but not play.
Initiatives might provide some entertainment, but so far we have nothing to draw national eyeballs like same-gender marriage, legalized marijuana and genetically modified organisms.
There are the dueling gun regulation initiatives, so the TV stations still will meet their budgets, and the rest of us will have to look elsewhere for real information.
Election 2014 lacks snap, crackle and pop. (Heck, so far it doesn’t have snap, crackle OR pop.) We don’t really have that much to fight about, which might be good for human interaction but is lousy for elections.
Not that there aren’t issues. How to address a state Supreme Court order regarding school funding, how to fill a Bertha-sized hole in transportation funding, and the growing campaign to respond to income inequality.
None, however, were tackled by a divided Legislature. Lawmakers spent much of their time creating ways for the other side to take votes that can be used in campaign brochures.
So no big gasoline tax increase on the ballot because Republicans and Democrats couldn’t agree. No backlash over new revenue sources to fund education and meet the orders of the state Supreme Court because they didn’t pass one.
Besides, even if they could have agreed, the issues before the state are nothing compared to what they were just a few years back when politicians dealt with the worst economic crisis in 85 years. Nothing on the agenda now can compare to the crisis caused by the Great Recession.
Each time the Legislature and governor filled a big hole in the budget, an even-bigger one would emerge. Proposed cuts that were considered beyond the pale one year were embraced the next. Quarterly revenue forecasts were met with new anxiety and foreboding. Protests. Agony. Pain. Remorse. Citizens in shock. Politicians in tears.
The economy isn’t exactly humming, but at least we’re over all that.
Then it hits me. The reason everyone seems so blasé, why the election seems so dull and restrained, is that everyone is in the midst of an after-crisis fugue state. That’s right, we’re all suffering from PTSD — post-traumatic session disorder. Even the made-up-party names are uninspiring this year. Not a single candidate, for instance, prefers the Salmon Yoga Party.
Sure, activists on the left and the right will find plenty to get agitated about. But they were born agitated and will likely die agitated. The rest of us are having trouble getting our engines started.
There is a cure, of course. In two years, a new president will be elected, and Republicans will have their first crack at Gov. Jay Inslee. Patty Murray will be up for her fifth term, a race she’s already declared for, giving state voters a chance to play in the next race to control the U.S. Senate.
So a dull Election 2014 might be the calm before the storm. But that doesn’t make it any less dull.

Quite a few folks need to perform from home and generate income online go here. Why is it that a lot of fall short at this? For some, it can be simply because they are lazy rather than willing to set from the time or energy.

From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2—Ginny suffers from undiagnosed double vision, and seeing two of everything is causing her difficulties in school. On vision screening day, a nurse discovers the problem, and the prescribed eye patch gives Ginny a new identity—the pirate of kindergarten. Lyon's short, descriptive sentences set up the situation deftly, and Avril's astute chalk, pencil, and acrylic drawings of "two of everything" provide a vivid window into Ginny's pre-treatment world. It is not until the end of the story that Ginny declares herself a pirate, but as a metaphor for confidence and competence, her patch effectively declares her to be captain of her own ship. Julia Chen Headley's The Patch
(Charlesbridge, 2006) is another story about a pirate with vision issues.—Lisa Egly Lehmuller, St. Patrick's Catholic School, Charlotte, NC

Ginny enjoys kindergarten, but she does have some difficulties, and occasionally children laugh when she runs into chairs or reads lines of text twice. Her teacher notices that the child closes one eye to read, but on Vision Screening Day, the school nurse discovers that Ginny has double vision. When the doctor gives her a temporary eye patch, Ginny wears it with style and becomes a “Kindergarten Pirate,” suddenly better at numbers, scissors, and reading and no longer tense from concentrating in order to avoid mistakes. Created with pastels, acrylics, and colored pencils, Avril’s bold and wonderfully vivid mixed-media illustrations sometimes portray the classroom through Ginny’s eyes, with overlapping images of chairs, books, and people, though they usually present an outside perspective. Based on Lyon’s own experience, the sensitively written story radiates empathy and good humor. Even children who have not experienced Ginny’s problem will understand her occasional frustration and find it intriguing that one person can literally see the world differently from another.

Nintendo Experimented In The Late 1980s With What Odd NES Peripheral?
Answer: A Knitting Machine
In the 1980s, Nintendo released a variety of peripherals for their iconic Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Most gamers will readily recall the more beloved ones like the Zapper Light Gun, Power Glove arm-mounted game controller, and R.O.B. (Nintendo’s attempt at a gaming robot accessory).
If you don’t recall Nintendo’s Knitting Machine peripheral, however, we can hardly blame you. Not only did the product not make it to the mass market, but it was such a curious choice of peripheral expansion for a video game system that even guessing it existed is improbable.
The basic premise of the device was that the NES would function as an 8-bit brain for the knitting machine. Users would purchase cartridges that contained knitting patterns, and by feeding yarn into the electronic loom while it was connected to the NES, the device would knit everything from scarves to mittens to sweaters.
While the machine was a total flop when Nintendo pitched it to various toy stores and at electronics expos, the very premise of it, an electronic device that makes things, would do very well in the present with the whole maker movement—given the rise of 3D printing and general interest in such matters.
In fact, when retired Nintendo video game producer and spokesman Howard Phillips posted pictures of an ad-copy for the device on social media websites back in 2012, the response was almost universally along the lines of, “Well, five year old me wouldn’t have wanted that back in the 1980s, but 30 year old me would buy it in a heartbeat now.” Clearly, the Nintendo Knitting Machine was ahead of its time.

NM Legislature balks at plan to buy prisons near Hobbs, Santa Rosa
SANTA FE (AP) - A proposal that the state buy two prisons under construction at Hobbs and Santa Rosa ran into a roadblock Monday.
The Senate Judiciary Committee on a 4-3 vote tabled the measure, keeping it from moving to the next committee - at least for now.
The bill authorizes the state to spend $69.5 million on the prisons but does not provide the money.
Republican Gov. Gary Johnson supports the purchase, as did the Republicans on the committee. But they were outvoted by Democrats.
Sen. Billy McKibben, R-Hobbs, the bill's sponsor, said the vote was "certainly a disappointment," but it doesn't end the debatesrs.
"There's plenty of time," agreed acting Corrections Secretary Rob Perry.-gsas
The prisons, with a total of 1,800 beds, are being built by Wackenhut Corrections Corp. for Lea and Guadalupe counties, which will own them once they complete a bond-financing deal.
The counties propose to pay off the prisons by leasing space to the state to house its prisoners. Johnson says using the privately operated prisons would ease overcrowding in the state system and cut costs.
Buying the prisons would be cheaper in the long run for the state than leasing cells, supporters say.
But under the purchase proposal, Wackenhut would continue as the operator of the prisons for at least five years - and Democrats don't like the idea of privatization.
"I believe honestly that this administration and this governor want to privatize everything. This is just one of the little steps," said Sen. Michael Sanchez, D-Belen.
Sanchez characterized the Johnson administration as favoring "smaller ... leaner, meaner government."
Opponents also suggested the state might spend more to buy the prisons knthan it would to build them itself.

A study conducted by the American Psychological Association in 2021 shows 61% of Americans cite “money” as a “very/somewhat significant” cause of stress. This was the leading cause of stress (unless you were employed, in which case “work” was the top source of stress).
You can’t blame Covid alone for this. An anxiety and stress report produced by FINRA last year concluded “even before the pandemic, a substantial share of households were anxious and stressed about their personal finances and could not face a mid-sized shock.”
“This was an area of emerging growth even before the Covid pandemic,” says Joe Buhrmann, Senior Financial Planning Consultant at eMoney Advisor in Bloomington, Illinois. “The ongoing physical and emotional stress tied together with financial stress can create a toxic brew for many households. Recent studies have shared that two-thirds of adults said money was a major source of stress in their lives, and the main cause was a lack of fundamental financial literacy.”
You can therefore understand if retirement savers feel the same anxiety.
This year has seen the rise of two specific factors that will only further agonize you. Whether you’ve got short term or long term investments, there’s a devil lurking out there looking to spook you.
The first is inflation. You’ve read all about it by now. If it makes you concerned, you’re not alone.
“Those sitting in a money market will lose money this year relative to inflation,” says Trent D. Bryson, CEO of Bryson Wealth Management in Long Beach, California. “Unfortunately, it is usually the least sophisticated investor that needs the money working for them the most that will get hurt.”
That doesn’t mean those with more knowledge are immune, and not just with their investments. Left uncontrolled, inflation will also impact retirement planning years from now.
“Inflation rates will significantly affect retirement funds,” says Michael Jeffcoat, Founder and Attorney at The Jeffcoat Firm in Columbia, South Carolina. “With the supposed interim inflation rate of 6% made permanent, retirement savers will have to explore riskier investment vehicles that yield better returns. Remember: pre-pandemic inflation rates were just under 2%. A 6% inflation rate indicates that the average cost of living may likely double in the next 8 to 10 years.”
Of course, the long term side has its own problems. You’re already seeing them if you’re paying attention. Many retirement savers, however, aren’t. The good news over the past several years may have led them to complacency. They might not be prepared for what can happen next.
“The biggest issue facing retirement savers in 2022 is recency bias,” says Clayton Wood, Managing Partner at C. B. Wood Financial LLC in Charlotte, North Carolina. “If you include the reinvestment of dividends, the S&P 500 has returned double digit increases 8 out of the last 10 years. For investors just joining the workforce, it is a huge disappointment to see a return below 10%. Retirement savers must understand that investing is a long-term strategy. There will be ups and downs in the market, but on average over the long term your retirement savings will increase.”
You can’t just sit back and let the world happen to you. That’s the ultimate capitulation to stress. It’s better to take on the philosophy so often employed by Captain James T. Kirk: “The best defense is a good offense.” Take action before the action takes you.
If inflation has got you worried, “look at your holdings,” says Bryson. “Call your 401(k) advisor and walk through the alternative ways to invest in a conservative fashion that allows you to stay in your comfort zone yet outpace inflation and start to become more comfortable with risk/reward.”
Remember that inflation means different things to different people. Stocks often represent a historically reliable hedge against inflation for the long term. But not everyone is in a position to stick it out for the long term.
“Retirement savers should explore investments that yield higher profits,” says Jeffcoat. “Millennials in their 30s or 40s can shift to equity funds since they generate a conservative APR of 10% to 12% per annum—doubling the current inflation rate. Meanwhile, older adults close to retiring might want to consider less risky options. Look into investment vehicles that outperform the current inflation without much market volatility. Assume a more conservative risk tolerance. Otherwise, you might end up realizing losses every time you make a withdrawal.”
The risk of overpriced markets needs to be addressed in a different fashion. As mentioned, double digit increases have investors thinking this is the norm. Index-based and growth stock investing has been very popular (and successful), but the pendulum swings both ways. As they say, past performance never guarantees future results.
“Retirement savers must diversify their investments,” says Wood. “Many investors have allocated their retirement savings to a few concentrations trying to chase investment returns. This works when the market is going up but will dramatize the decline of your portfolio in down markets.”
Beyond investments, money related stress generally comes down to what you don’t know. Buhrmann says “you should take two critical steps” to address this.
“First,” he says, “Recognize where you have weaknesses in your financial literacy and take steps to improve on that deficiency. Seek out trusted sources such as financial publications, websites, podcasts, plan sponsors, or a financial advisor. You can also seek out some resources from the U.S. Treasury here.”
“Next,” continues Buhrmann, “Control what you can. There can be a lot of noise coming from all sources—whether it is about market volatility, inflation, legislative changes, etc. For many of these items, one has very little control. However, you can control how much you save—and how much you spend. And the former depends a lot on the latter. Focus on controlling what you can and ‘tune out the noise.’”
Don’t let your stress feed on itself. Protect your retirements. Now is the time to embrace a carpe diem philosophy at warp speed.

Ethereum developers are pushing for their next software upgrade to be ready by March 2021. The upgrade will enable token holders to withdraw their staked Ether tokens. This is a major step forward for the Ethereum network, as it allows users to access their funds more quickly and easily. Additionally, the upgrade will prioritize code changes that prioritize the ability to withdraw funds and improve the blockchain’s programming environment.
Though the timeline for the upgrade is ambitious, developers are hard at work so that their mission can be achieved. With this upgrade, the Ethereum network will become more flexible and efficient, making it an even more attractive option for users.

Colonie candidates collect cash
One Town Board contest features fundraising gap of more than 19 to 1
Published 11:37 pm, Tuesday, July 17, 2012
COLONIE — In what normally would be an off year for Colonie Town Board races, two resignations mean four candidates are vying for the available seats.
So far, they have shown a remarkable variance in how much money they have raised.
Democratic candidate Brian Haak will face Republican David Green in a bid to fill three years left on the term vacated by Nancy Hernandez. Hernandez left the board shortly after winning re-election to take a job with the New York state comptroller's office, and Haak, a former St. Johnsville town supervisor, was appointed to fill the seat for the rest of this year.
Though he's got the job, Haak filed a form with the state Board of Elections that he raised less than $1,000.
Green, on the contrary, has racked up $19,670 in donations.
The attorney, who specializes in elder law, said he is getting an enthusiastic response.
"I haven't even had a fundraiser yet," Green said. "My client base is very excited about this opportunity for me. I have a very heavily Democratic population of clients as well as Republicans."
Green said people are responding strongly to his energy and enthusiasm, and only one of 30 donors is a family member.
Haak did not file a financial disclosure form and instead filed a notice to the state Board of Elections that he had raised and spent less than $1,000.
"I'm confident where we are. I have not focused so much on fundraising," he said. "I spent the month of June getting appointed to the board, getting to know the issues. We will be raising the money to meet the challenge, but at this point our focus was more on serving."
In the other town race, the contributions are about even.
David Rowley is running on the Democratic line against Republican Joe Gomez. A former Menands town justice, Rowley was named to fill the seat vacated by Republican Dan Dustin for the rest of this year. Whoever is elected this September will complete the last year in Dustin's term.
Rowley reported raising $5,615, while Gomez was close behind with $5,005.75.
Town races also involve spending by the town's political committees.
The town Democratic committee reported raising $17,910 in contributions. The Colonie Republicans did not file a financial statement.

Landmark settlement reached in animal abuse case
Animal welfare group says lawsuit agreement is largest-ever penalty for an animal abuse case
A $500 million settlement has been reached in a case involving the largest beef recall in U.S. History. The Humane Society of the United States says it is the largest-ever penalty for an animal abuse case.
Westland/Hallmark Meat Company was a supplier of meats for the national school lunch program when an undercover video showed cows unable to walk being dragged by chains, rammed by forklifts and sprayed with high-pressure water by employees who wanted them to stand and walk to slaughter at the Riverside County facility.
"It's a deterrence judgment".said Jonathan R. Lovvorn, chief counsel for animal protection litigation at the Humane Society of the United States. "It informs other federal government contractors that when your contract says you provide humane handling, if you don't do that you're likely to end up bankrupt as well".
The humane society sued for fraud and the U.S. Justice Department intervened because federal contracts required that animals be treated humanely.

Leila Borrington Wiki – Leila Borrington Biography
A stepmother filmed her three-year-old stepson dying from a brain injury after she killed him with “multiple slaps” to the head. Leila Borrington also committed two other attacks in the previous four months that left three-year-old Harvey with a broken arm and marks on her face.
She was jailed for 15 years at Nottingham Crown Court on Thursday. The court heard how Borrington lied about what had happened to Harvey, who had severe non-verbal autism, when paramedics arrived at her home on Main Road, Jacksdale, near Kirkby-in-Ashfield, in August 2021. .
Borrington also delayed calling emergency services after inflicting “insurmountable” injuries, including a fractured skull, on Harvey, instead sending a text to the boy’s father saying: “Why is this happening to me? me?”. Passing sentence Thursday, Judge Nicklin told Borrington: “You were 21 when you committed the first offense and 22 when you assaulted and killed Harvey.”
Leila Borrington Age
The age of Leila Borrington is 23 years.
Leila Borrington accused killing stepson
The “history” of using violence against Harvey was an aggravating factor in the manslaughter charge, the judge said, adding that the young man’s cause of death “must have been a sustained violent assault.” The judge also said that the text messages sent by Borrington, and her immediate response after Harvey was fatally assaulted, had shown a “shocking lack of care and concern.”
She told Borrington: “During the trial, we saw video footage of Harvey playing with his toys and putting items in the dishwasher. “In less than 30 minutes, more video footage showed Harvey unconscious on the living room floor. “Precisely what happened to Harvey only you know.” She was given a two-year prison sentence and a six-month prison sentence to run concurrently.
Borrington was convicted last month of manslaughter and separate charges of assault and grievous bodily harm to Harvey, in connection with incidents in April and July 2021. Borrington, 23, who was acquitted of murder, claimed Harvey “fell backwards” from a leather loveseat at her home, causing the fatal brain hemorrhage.Read More…..

What Precautions Should I take on Social Networking Sites?
Below are some helpful tips regarding security and privacy while using social networking sites:
USING WI-FI: CONNECT WITH CARE
If you are traveling, chances are you will encounter a Wi-Fi hotspot (network) or two.
Wi-Fi in airports, hotels, train stations, coffee shops, and other public places can be convenient, but they are often not secure and can leave you at risk.
Whether you are entertaining the kids by streaming a video on a tablet personal computer (PC), downloading new travel applications (apps) on your smartphone, or even taking your tablet poolside, there are precautions you should take to make sure your personal information is safe.
First and foremost, connect with care. If you are online through an unsecured network, you should be aware that malicious individuals may have established a Wi-Fi network with the intent to eavesdrop on your connection. This could allow them to steal your credentials, financial information, or other sensitive and personal information. It is also possible that they could infect your system with malware. Any free Wi-Fi should be considered “unsecure.” Therefore, be cautious about the site you visit and the information you release.
STOP. THINK. CONNECT.
