My Weekly RoundUp #100
Weekly Roundup Episode 100! A lot of major news!
Debian 10 was released and Netflix will produce a new series based on Neil Gaiman's "Sandman".
Finally, a famous cybersecurity expert is leaving a famous company, while chinese governement makes questionable uses of mobile apps.
In a message on my Facebook Page, Nick asks:
Andrea, could you please recommend software to make the .img for recuperabit? Thanks Nick
So, two suggestions: on Linux systems you could use the old-but-gold "dd":
# dd if=/dev/sdX of=./image.img bs=1M
On Windows, you can use a free version of FTKImager or an OSS tool like Clonezilla.
Debian 10 "buster" released
After 25 months of development the Debian project is proud to present its new stable version 10 (code name "buster"), which will be supported for the next 5 years thanks to the combined work of the Debian Security team and of the Debian Long Term Support team.
Debian 10 "buster" ships with several desktop applications and environments. Amongst others it now includes the desktop environments:
* Cinnamon 3.8,
* KDE Plasma 5.14,
* LXQt 0.14,
* Xfce 4.12.
In this release, GNOME defaults to using the Wayland display server instead of Xorg.https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/2019/msg00003.html
New Malware Evades Traffic Monitoring via DNS over HTTPS
A Lua-based backdoor malware capable of targeting both Linux and Windows users while securing its communication channels via DNS over HTTPS (DoH) was discovered by researchers at Network Security Research Lab of Qihoo 360.https://blog.netlab.360.com/an-analysis-of-godlua-backdoor-en/
By using DoH to encapsulate the communication channels between command-and-control servers, the infected machines, and the attacker-controlled servers within HTTPS requests, the malware dubbed Godlua manages to block researchers from analyzing its traffic.
Godlua's main function seems to be that of a DDoS bot and it was already seen in action when its masters launched an HTTP flood attack against the liuxiaobei[.]com domain, as observed by the Qihoo 360 researchers.
Canonical's GitHub Account has been compromised!
On July 6, 2019, hackers have breached the GitHub account of Canonical Ltd., the organization behind the Ubuntu Linux distribution.https://www.andreafortuna.org/2019/07/07/canonicals-github-account-has-been-compromised/
The company immediately launched an investigation, the good news is that the source code of the popular Linux distro was not impacted.
"We can confirm that on 2019-07-06 there was a Canonical owned account on GitHub whose credentials were compromised and used to create repositories and issues among other activities."
RDP BlueKeep exploit shows why you really, really need to patch
The PoC, described by BlueKeep namer and 'megathread' keeper Kevin Beaumont as 'incredible', was created by the SophosLabs Offensive Security team.https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2019/07/01/rdp-bluekeep-exploit-shows-why-you-really-really-need-to-patch/
The code is obviously too dangerous to be released publicly, so SophosLabs has recorded a video showing the fileless exploit being used to gain full control of a remote system without authentication.
Security maven Bruce Schneier is leaving IBM
Infosec veteran Bruce Schneier has said he'll step down as a "special advisor" to IBM's security business to, in part, focus his time on teaching the next generation of security pros.https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/07/01/dont_tell_alice_and_bob_security_guru_schneier_is_leaving_ibm/
Schneier said he also wanted to focus on work with nonprofit projects including Tor and the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), where he is a board member.
China installs a surveillance app on tourists' phones while crossing in the Xinjiang
China's border authorities routinely install the app on smartphones belonging to travelers who enter Xinjiang by land from Central Asia, according to several people interviewed by the journalists who crossed the border recently and requested anonymity to avoid government retaliation. Chinese officials also installed the app on the phone of one of the journalists during a recent border crossing. Visitors were required to turn over their devices to be allowed into Xinjiang.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/02/technology/china-xinjiang-app.html
Google Turns to Retro Cryptography to Keep Data Sets Private
Certain studies require sensitive data sets: the relationship between nutritious school lunch and student health, the effectiveness of salary equity initiatives, and so on. Valuable insights require navigating a minefield of private, personal information. Now, after years of work, cryptographers and data scientists at Google have come up with a technique to enable this "multiparty computation" without exposing information to anyone who didn't already have it.https://www.wired.com/story/google-private-join-compute-database-encryption/
What Is Homomorphic Encryption?
Homomorphic encryption is a method of performing calculations on encrypted information without decrypting it first. Why do you care about some arcane computer math? Because it could make cloud computing a lot more secure. It's not quite ready for your email though—right now it makes processes literally a million times slower if you use it.https://www.wired.com/2014/11/hacker-lexicon-homomorphic-encryption/
Netflix is reportedly adapting Neil Gaiman's Sandman
Another Neil Gaiman property is being adapted for the small screen. The Hollywood Reporter says that Netflix is closing in on a deal with Warner Bros. to adapt the author's acclaimed comic series Sandman into a live-action TV show, in what is being described as "the most expensive TV series that DC entertainment has ever done."https://www-theverge-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2019/6/30/20656664/netflix-neil-gaiman-sandman-tv-series-comic-book-adaptation-allan-heinberg

Photosynthesis, chlorophyll a fluorescence, leaf bio-optical properties and pigments were measured in 2 tropical intertidal seagrass species, Zostera muelleri ssp. capricorni and Halophila ovalis before, during and after air-exposure over a tidal cycle. Data were collected across 4 seasons (October and January-growing seasons; May and July-senescent seasons) to determine seasonal dynamics in physiological responses to air exposure. Both species showed clear light-dependent responses with a decline in photosynthetic efficiency and increased photoprotection during periods of combined maximum daily irradiance and air exposure for all seasons. In Z. muelleri ssp. capricorni there was a negative correlation between air-exposed effective quan - tum yield and light intensity, suggesting exposure was driving this decline. Conversely, sensitivity (decline in effective quantum yield of photosystem II) to increased irradiance dominated the response in H. ovalis, with no change in the magnitude of this response between air-exposed and submerged blades. The response to air exposure observed in Z. muelleri ssp. capricorni showed seasonal variation, with a greater decline in photosynthesis during the spring (October). Tidal exposure did not provide intertidal seagrasses a 'window' of photosynthetic respite (increase in photosynthesis) from high natural or anthropogenic turbidity. However, the periods immediately prior to and after exposure were important for providing an optimum period for net photosynthetic gain. © Inter-Research 2013.

Videographer / Director: Jason Janik
Producer: Nick Johnson, Dan Howlett
Editor: Kyle Waters
Ethan D'Amato suffers from Neurofibromatosis type one – or NF-1 - meaning he was born with severe facial tumours.
The courageous 11-year-old has been offered surgery to remove his tumours but was told that could potentially damage his nerves – meaning he could have lost the ability to laugh and smile.
Ethan, who lives in Dallas, Texas, turned down the offer and decided a life with tumours is better than a life without smiling.
"I just can't take the risk of not being able to laugh or smile," added Ethan.
"I think I will wait until there is a robotic surgeon who won't make any mistakes.
"Humans can be a bit shaky and may hit a nerve so I will have to wait."
In an attempt to help people understand his condition Ethan and his family designed leaflets that they hand out to people who are curious about his appearance.
Ethan's father Peter, 57, said: "We developed the brochure because we needed to figure out a way to engage people.
"Sometimes if we're in the supermarket we will have two or maybe three minutes to explain to them why Ethan looks the way he does.
"That's not always possible – particularly with children - so we thought this would be a quick and easy way to show people that Ethan is no different from them.
"He's just a normal little boy with the same hopes and fears as anyone – he just looks a little different.
"I call him a head turner."
Despite seemingly taking the condition in his stride Ethan can get hurt by the stares and glances.
He said: "I get a lot of people staring at me and just looking at my face.
"That can get really annoying – I wish they wouldn't do it.
"They frown at me and once a child pointed at me and called me a thing.
"I'm not a thing – I'm a human being."
Peter added: "I have looked in his eyes when someone has said something not very nice to him and he handles it a lot better than other people would.
"He goes over there very nicely, engages them and says 'I'm Ethan I was born with neurofibromatosis, and it's just a condition, I'm not weird, I'm a perfectly normal child just like you."
NF-1 is caused when there is a mutation of a gene on chromosome 17 leading to tumours forming along the nervous system.
It can be genetic but Peter and Ethan's mum Siew, 53, have not been able to find any trace of it in their family.
His sister Naomi D'Amato, 20 set up a website and GoFundMe page to help raise awareness of the condition.
She said: "Finding out he had NF caused so many questions – we were all certainly going through complex emotions when he was born.
"I'd never seen my dad cry so that was difficult to deal with.
"It can lead to things like curvature of the spine, bone and blood disorders, cancer tumours and problems with mental ability and eye sight.
"But we are just thankful that he is here and will keep trying to get him all the help we can."
Along with trying to change people's opinions of NF-1 Ethan is also learning to play the violin and like most 11-year-old boys loves Lego.
"I've been playing the violin for five years - I'm learning Bach and Gavotte in D Major,
"When I'm older I want to become a Lego designer.
"I want to make Lego cities, cars, trucks and houses for a living."

Islamabad: Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani directed the Ministry of Petroleum and other stakeholders to work on war footing to ensure that people are put to minimum inconvenience due to gas shortage in the forthcoming months of November, December and January. An attitude of business as usual is unacceptable, the prime minister said.
The Prime Minister said this during a high level meeting he chaired at the PM House today which was attended by the Minister for Petroleum, Dr. Asim Hussain, Secretary Finance, Cabinet Secretary, Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister, Secretary Petroleum, Acting Chairman of FBR and other senior officials of the relevant ministries.
The Prime Minister directed the Ministry of Petroleum to accelerate the process of increasing the supply of gas in the country. All irritants in the way must be removed as of today, the Prime Minister directed.
The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources briefed the meeting about various gas development projects like Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline, TAPI, Turkmenistan- Afghanistan- Pakistan and India gas pipeline and import of LNG to overcome the shortage of gas in the country.
The Prime Minister directed that work on these projects should be expedited and all the concerned authorities should meet today and in quick succession, if need be, to evolve an operational strategy aimed at speeding up the work to overcome the energy deficiency in the country at the earliest possible time.
The Prime Minister also underscored the need of launching an awareness campaign to sensitize people to the imperative of energy conservation particularly the gas conservation measures in the upcoming winter to ensure maximum benefit and comfort to the people.

"The 'Complete Streets' concept and movement in urban planning and policy has been hailed by many as a revolution that aims to challenge the auto-normative paradigm by reversing the broader effects of an urban form shaped by the logic of keeping automobiles moving. By enabling safe access for all users, Complete Streets promise to make cities more walkable and livable and at the same time more sustainable. This book problematizes the Complete Streets concept by suggesting that streets should not be thought of as merely physical spaces, but as symbolic and social spaces. When important social and symbolic narratives are missing from the discourse and practice of Complete Streets, what actually results are incomplete streets. The volume questions whether the ways in which complete streets narratives, policies, plans and efforts are envisioned and implemented might be systematically reproducing many of the urban spatial and social inequalities and injustices that have characterized cities for the last century or more. From critiques of a "mobility bias" rooted in the neoliberal foundations of the Complete Streets concept, to concerns about resulting environmental gentrification, the chapters in Incomplete Streets variously call for planning processes that give voice to the historically marginalized and, more broadly, that approach streets as dynamic, fluid and public social places. This interdisciplinary book is aimed at students, researchers and professionals in the fields of urban geography, environmental studies, urban planning and policy, transportation planning, and urban sociology. "--
"The most prolific and persistent product of the unfolding vision of 'liveable cities' and 'cities for people' has been the genesis and growth of 'complete streets;' a concept and movement that has exploded across the urban planning, transportation planning, environmental policy, sustainable communities, and other scenes. This book about those where important missing narratives in the complete streets discourse and practice result in streets that are "complete" for some but not others. It applies a critical perspective on the rhetoric and practice of complete streets that goes beyond seeing streets as merely functional spaces for moving people and objects"--

Things You Need To Do When Visiting Sapa
- Posted on September 4, 2019
- in Sapa tours, Tours To Sapa
- by hoapham
Sapa, the paradise for Instagramers, is located at an altitude of over 1500m above the sea with many beautiful landscapes. Coming to Sapa, you might wonder where to go, what to do? Say no more! We have collected many great and useful activities and places into a nice list for your needs when you arrive in Sapa. For more reference, check out our website for latest offers and deals on Sapa Tours.
First thing to do, book a comfortable place to stay
Coming to Sapa, the first thing that must be considered is places to stay and places to eat. As one of the famous tourist destinations, Sapa of course does not lack of hotels, motels or homestays.
Things you should consider when choosing your place to stay in Sapa
1/The view should be nice; the space must be open so you can have a panoramic view of the dreamy Sapa.
2/ It'd better be near the center for easy transportation.
3/The room rates must be reasonable so you can afford more services later.
The second, conquering Fansipan peak – the rooftop of Indochina
Fansipan is the highest mountain in Indochina (3,143 m), located in the center of Hoang Lien Son mountain range. Conquering the roof of Indochina is always on the must-try list of young people today. You can buy a tour from travel companies or organize it yourself with the Mong guides.
You can choose to go by cable car if you do not have much time. The cable car in Fasipan was put into operation in early 2016, helping thousands of tourists conquer the roof of Indochina in an easier way. It only takes you about 15 minutes to reach the top of Fansipan. Sitting on the cabin, looking at the panoramic view of the Northwest Mountains and cloudy sky, you will feel like you're in paradise.
The third is eating Thang Co hotpot and Banh Gu Chien
Thang Co is a traditional dish of the Mong people, originating from the mountains of Ha Giang and gradually favored by all ethnic minorities in the Northern Mountains. If Hanoi people are proud of Pho, Saigon people are proud of Com Tam then people in the Northwest region are proud of Thang Co. Once you try it, you will always remember this unique flavor.
If Thang Co is not enough, you can try salmon hotpot, sturgeon hotpot or seven dishes of pork meat. Sapa salmon is always praised for its firm meat, no fat, softness and sweetness. Being together with your friends, enjoying the salmon hotpot and a plate of Thit Lon Cap Nach, you will understand why Sapa is always in the top choice of tourists.
And lastly, don't forget buying gifts for your friends and relatives at home!
Besides the delicious cuisines, Sapa is also well-known for many kinds of gift that carrying the spirit of Northwest mountains. Don't just pick up some random items that you see on the road; Sapa has a lot of interesting things such as salmon shredded meat, brocade, or natural oils such as rose oil, cinnamon oil, etc.
Are you excited to make your visit to Sapa now? Don't forget to visit our website https://www.sapa-tours.net/ for more information about Sapa Tours. September and October are the ideal time to visit Sapa because it's also harvesting season so don't hesitate to invite your partners to join your journey! Pick up your backpack and come to Sapa to experience it!

"Good exposure to a variety of aspects."
There Is Still Significant Room For Cost Reduction In Horizontal Drilling In Western Canada's Shale Plays...
...whether operating in the Bakken, Cardium, Viking, Montney, Duvernay or other emerging shale plays, improvements can and are being made at every stage of horizontal drilling from building the curve to inserting casing to extending the lateral and hole cleaning.
Horizontal Drilling Canada 2013 is taking place in Calgary on September 18 and 19 and is the only congress focused entirely on drilling for drilling professionals in Western Canada. The congress will host discussions direct from drilling executives, directors, managers and engineers explaining case studies on how they have achieved maximum drill efficiency in the most prolific WCSB plays.
Case Studies Will Focus On:
EXTENDED REACH DRILLING: How operators are drilling low cost, high speed, extended reach lateral wells in Western Canadian shale plays
WELLBORE PLACEMENT: How operators are using geomechanical and seismic data to decide on wellbore orientation and facilitate maximum recovery completions
WELLBORE DESIGN: Strategies for designing and constructing the wellbore to facilitate completions, attain target lateral length and increase the speed of drilling
HOLE CLEANING & TORQUE & DRAG: Examining fluid systems and mechanical techniques for cleaning the wellbore to reduce torque and drag and obtain a smoother, more rapidly drilled wellbore
CASING, PRESSURE MAINTENANCE & HOLE STABILITY: Effectively running casing to full depth, managing pressured zones and mitigating lost circulation
TOOL SELECTION: Selecting optimal performance, low cost, high durability tools to minimize tool failure in Western Canadian drilling operations.

Posted 22-02-17, Tags: peak retail trading times, rent roll cages, retail peak periods, retail peak season, roll cage hire, roll cage rental, rollcages, transit equipment
Everyone has different peak trading periods. Some would say Christmas is their biggest retail challenge, but many companies feel the pressure at other times of the year such as Easter, Mother's Day and the summer holidays.
Retailers with airport outlets certainly feel the pinch in the summer holiday season. Suppliers of staples like milk and bread have a surge in demand when the children are on their school holidays and need feeding.
Well, it might not seem like it but the rush is only a matter of weeks away. If you haven't planned for it already you've probably left it too late to build up stocks of roll cages, trays etc. to cope with demand.
There are two options:
1. buy unbranded cages - that you're likely to lose,
2. rent cages.
In the past, the issue with renting cages was the high cost of losing them. However now you can rent from our sister company at Roll Cage Rental and receive a free recovery service for the cages you lose and we find.
They can offer this service because they are the only rental company that also has a nationwide recovery service for transit equipment.
Don't throw your money away buying cages you will inevitably lose; go to the only rental company that helps you to hang onto the cages you rent.

WhatsApp is currently the most popular application in the world, but what is interesting, it happened a few months ago, in September 2018. It was then that the popular messenger in terms of the number of users began to dethrone Facebook, which is also the owner of WhatsApp. The application has the most users in India.
App Annie has published a report in which they reveals that WhatsApp is the most popular application in the world. However, this did not happen in the last few days and a few months ago. The chart below shows that the popular messenger has dethroned Facebook in the vicinity of September 2018.
Annie's app explains that WhatsApp has the most users in India. The messenger is also very popular among people living in Brazil, Mexico, Turkey and Russia. The app also has many users in the UK and Canada.
Facebook in early 2018 revealed that WhatsApp already has nearly 1.5 billion active users. Of course, now the number is certainly greater, but its value remains a mystery. We know, however, that within 24 months the popular communicator managed to increase the base of active users by 30%. For comparison, Facebook at the same time has grown by 20%, and Messenger by 15%.
Remember that we do not offer downloading videos from whatsapp yet, but now you can download videos from facebook using our genius Facebook Downloader !

Wordless Wednesday – Week of June 25, 2013
The silvereye (Zosterops lateralis) – also known as the wax-eye, or sometimes white eye – is a small olive green forest bird with white rings around its eyes.
These friendly birds were self introduced in the 1800s and now have a wide distribution throughout New Zealand. They have made the forest their home and are now among the most common bird in suburbia too. The subtle calling of the flock as they move through the forest is pleasant music in an iPod-free forest.

Tibial Fracture Nonunions Following Intramedullary Nailing: An Application of Logistic Regression
Date of Award

First Advisor
Hannah Dailey
This paper utilizes the principles of logistic regression analysis to study patient factors that are strongly linked to the outcome of intramedullary nail surgery. This surgery is performed on fractured tibial bones to bring the bone back to union, or a state of connection again. The alternative result of the surgery is nonunion, or a state in which the bone does not heal properly. This paper draws from a recent publication in the Journal of Orthopedic Trauma, "Tibial fracture nonunion and time to healing following reamed intramedullary nailing" (Dailey, Wu, Wu, McQueen, & Court-Brown, 2018).

Philadelphia Ecstasy Possession Lawyer
Ecstasy is a controlled substance, and as such, the possession of ecstasy is illegal in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the City of Philadelphia.
If you were arrested and charged with possession of ecstasy, contacting a Philadelphia ecstasy possession lawyer will be the most beneficial decision you can make for your case.
Ecstasy Is a Party Drug
Ecstasy is also known as molly or MDMA. It is a party drug associated with certain subcultures, including rave and dance clubs.
Ecstasy is a Schedule 1 substance throughout the United States. The fact that the sentencing of ecstasy cases falls under federal sentencing guidelines means that each case has considerable consequences when it comes to the potential penalty.
Philadelphia Sentencing Laws Are Tough
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has tough mandatory minimum sentencing laws when it comes to drugs such as ecstasy. Even if this is your first offense, and you only had a very small amount of ecstasy in your possession, you could be facing a sentence of up to a year in prison and $5,000 in fines.
If it is your second offense, the sentencing could go up to as long as two years in prison. The sentencing gets more severe the more times you are arrested and convicted.
A drug does not actually have to be found on your person for you to be arrested and charged with drug possession. You can be convicted of ecstasy possession based on the fact that it was found near you, in your car, or in your home.
Depending on your circumstances, this means it could be fairly easy for law enforcement to accuse you of ecstasy possession. If circumstantial evidence led to your ecstasy possession charge, a Philadelphia ecstasy possession lawyer can help you contest it.
Getting Ecstasy Charges Dismissed
As with any case involving drug charges, your Philadelphia ecstasy possession lawyer may be able to have the charges against you reduced or dismissed as illegitimate charges.
If you were arrested after a stop and frisk, or a stop and search, your Philadelphia ecstasy possession lawyer can help demonstrate there was no probable cause to stop and frisk you or stop and search your vehicle. This makes the entire search unconstitutional, and any evidence collected during an unconstitutional search may not be admitted into a court as evidence.
Another common mistake that law enforcement makes is to accuse somebody of drug possession, when it can clearly be demonstrated that there were other people in the vicinity—for example, in the car or house—and the drugs could have belonged to these other parties rather than you.
In order to prove you guilty of a drug crime, the prosecutor has to demonstrate that the drugs did in fact belong to you. When the drugs weren't actually found on your person directly, it becomes easier for your Philadelphia ecstasy possession lawyer to cast doubt on the legitimacy of your arrest.
Schedule a Consultation with a Philadelphia Ecstasy Possession Lawyer
Whether ecstasy or some other controlled substance, a drug possession charge is never a good thing to have on your record. A qualified Philadelphia ecstasy possession lawyer from Young, Marr & Associates can help you navigate through the legal proceedings of your case.
Contact our office by calling (215) 701-6519 and schedule a free consultation to examine your case in detail.

Commonwealth v. "C" (Felony drug/Firearms case)

GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. – As Minnesota United unveiled Chris Wright as their first ever CEO Monday, the former president of the NBA's Minnesota Timbers addressed everything he saw as a strength of his new club. Including its current head coach.
Wright was full of praise for Adrian Heath, saying he was "determined to have this [side] be an MLS champion." He later doubled down, saying he wanted his legacy as an executive to include "Adrian Heath as our manager to win an MLS championship."
No goodwill is permanent in the world of coaching. But such an obvious double vote of confidence seems to indicate that Heath will indeed return next season as Minnesota's head coach.
Despite a shockingly poor start to the season and a later summer swoon, Heath has righted the ship as of late, with his side winning two of their last three away fixtures. Speaking with MLSsoccer.com after the press conference, Heath seemed a bit relieved after the new boss praised him.
"Is the squad where we want it to be? No," Heath said. "I take a great deal of satisfaction in where we are from where we started. On the road, you've got to man up and be counted. That mentality has changed."
Minnesota lost their first two MLS matches by a combined 11-2 score. But while some onlookers believed sky was falling, Heath helped oversee two major changes in late March in the introduction of Marc Burch and Sam Cronin.
"They brought a bit of experience, a lot of leadership, and are people who've been through the rigors of an MLS season," Heath said. "Couple that with the inclusion of Brent Kallman at that time. I think you look at that moment, around the 4-2 win against RSL, we started to pick up points."
Heath cited the tandem of Cronin and Burch as two catalysts for the improved road performance. However, it's been hard to keep both of them on the field since the summer rolled around. Saturday's win over Montreal marked Burch's first action since June 3. Meanwhile, Cronin has missed the last three matches with lingering head and neck issues.
Those absences, along with a month without goalscoring hero Christian Ramirez, have left the Loons testing their depth. For Heath, it starts to explain why the club is set to miss the postseason this year.
"I'd think we'd certainly be closer," Heath reflected. "I really do. The other thing is that the players have grown. Abu [Danladi]'s not the same kid he was when we took him. He's a better professional. If I look at the group as a whole, we're far more comfortable. We've still got a long way to go."
As Heath and the Loons look to close out the year strong, players like Danladi and Ramirez will hope to show enough to earn the coach's faith for 2018. Midseason acquisitions like Ethan Finlay and Michael Boxall have only furthered to deepen Minnesota's numbers. While only two starters in Saturday's win (Kevin Molino and Francisco Calvo) started their inaugural match against Portland in March, Heath believes the squad is massively improved.
"The team that started the first three, four games has seen eight or nine changes since," he said. "I think most coaches in the league would all tell you that we think we're pretty good at our job. At the end of the day, you're veritably as good as your players."

Your subject line is one of the most important aspects of any email, if not the most important. It's the single determining factor in whether or not your email gets viewed — no matter how good the body is, no one will ever see it if the subject line falls flat. This goes double for Amazon sellers, who often find that emails are essential for eliciting feedback and reviews.
In this article, we outline the seven best techniques for writing email subject lines for Amazon seller feedback and review requests. If you want better open and click-through rates, keep reading.
Email is not just the most common way for buyers and sellers to communicate, it's also one of the most preferred. Did you know that 90% of Americans check their email every few hours — or more — during a normal work day?
For Amazon sellers, traditional email marketing practices do not apply to messages sent through Amazon's Buyer Seller Messaging service. Amazon has strict guidelines regarding what your message to a buyer can say. You can request seller feedback or a product review, but be sure that your message is not asking for a positive rating. (Need a refresher on Amazon Terms of Service? These seller feedback and product review checklists can help.)
Even if your customers fall in love with your product right away, they still may forget to review it or provide seller feedback. After all, once the delivery arrives, your customer may already have forgotten about reviewing it. Once it's ordered, they no longer need to revisit Amazon.
That's why emails are so useful for Amazon sellers — a gentle request to review a product or provide feedback. A well-timed email can arrive a day or so after the package is delivered, urging the recipient to review the product at the moment they're most excited about it. That often leads to the best, most favorable reviews.
But if you want your email to get your customer to leave feedback or review your product, first it needs to be opened. Whether your shoppers actually read your email or trash it without opening it depends on your email subject line.
If you're looking for a shortcut to improve your open rates, include personalized information in the subject line. For example, including the name of the item purchased or Amazon order number in your feedback email subject line can help increase open rates.
Just like your other marketing endeavors, the best strategies are determined by what type of customers you have. The most effective subject lines for middle-aged women may have the reverse effect on teenage boys. So it's best to know for whom, exactly, you're writing them.
Aside from deciphering the type of personality and tone your customers respond to best, you also want to look at which devices and apps they use to read their emails. This comes into play when determining the character length of the subject line, which we explain below.
You don't need to be a marketing copywriter to know that some words are more powerful than others. You can improve your email subject lines just by improving your vocabulary, specifically by knowing which words have the biggest impact.
Words like "You" and "Your" work great for personalizing the email, furthering what we said above. For Amazon buyers, words like "Amazon," "order," and "account" act as cues that the email is related to a recent purchase. Additionally, everyone enjoys a heartfelt "Thanks" or "Thank You."
For years, marketers have taken it for granted that email subjects use title capitalization (Every Key Word Is Capitalized), but recently some companies have found success with sentence capitalization — or no capitalization at all.
The thinking is that title capitalization is too formal, whereas sentence and no capitalization mimic the way friends email each other. These styles suggest a closer relationship, rather than overtly promotional emails.
The best capitalization for you depends on the types of customers you have. If it's not so obvious, try experimenting with different styles and note which ones are opened the most.
Different phone screen sizes and email providers each have different ways of displaying emails, in particular, how many characters they list in the email preview. Make sure that your subject line is mobile-friendly. Portrait view on an iPhone allows 41 characters to be viewed, which is also recommended as a good email subject line length according to Campaign Monitor.
One emerging email marketing trend is the use of emojis. Using emojis in subject lines can, under the right circumstances, improve your open rate by 56%. The principle is the same as using sentence capitalization — the email looks less formal, as if sent by a friend.
Of course, the success of emoji depends on your type of customer. Typically, they're most effective for young and casual consumers. Customer segments who are older and more professional might be turned off by them, though. Again, try experimenting and record the results.
Regularly test and optimize your subject lines. A subject line that performed well two years ago might not be quite as eye-catching these days. You may find that a different approach works better for a product that is more popular with pet owners. Continuous iteration is the best way to make sure that your subject lines stay fresh. You can use FeedbackFive to A/B test subject lines for your emails to see what is working and where you might want to try something new.
Writing the subject line is just the beginning. Composing a solid message can be a lot more difficult with its own rules and best practices. With FeedbackFive, we provide easy to follow email templates to help you craft the perfect email, every time. In addition to English, our default templates have been professionally translated in four languages (Spanish, French, German, and Italian) for international marketplaces. You can also see email analytics, A/B test your email subject lines, access custom email designers, and create SKU-specific emails — not to mention all the features outside of email.

I can't find a replacement Battery in my Country Germany.
Can anybody help, please?
Trank you in advance!!
I can't find a replacement Battery in my Country Germany.
the battery is not replaceable.
Of course it is. I have already opened the device, all you need to do is to solder 3 thin cables to the device.
when a company says the battery is not replaceable it means opening the device will void warranty and they do not sell the batteries. sandisk's own user manual states the battery is not replaceable. you may be able to solder a replacement battery to the board if you can find one and if you can there is no guarantee it will work.
If I recall correctly, I found 1 or 2 replacement batteries at aliexpress.com, at a good pricing; eBay may have listings as well. Of course, as noted above, you–the user–need to do the replacement work.
Replacement battery, via eBay.com: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Sandisk-Sansa-Clip-Zip-4gb-8gb-Replacement-Battery-Pack-303038P-/401163826582?hash=item5d673a3596:g:MmcAAOSwpdpVchKs
(Same item/seller also is listed at eBay.de: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Original-Sandisk-Sansa-Clip-Zip-4gb-8gb-Replacement-Battery-Pack-303038P-/401163826582?hash=item5d673a3596:g:MmcAAOSwpdpVchKs)
Unfortunately, not inexpensive. As the seller notes, there are three solder points to contend with (and tiny little wires).

I'm not what I used to be when it comes to debates on the history and science of vaccines... I'm better.
Tag: #science
What's the Best Language to Use When Addressing the Public About Public Health and Healthcare?
I'm at the annual conference of the American Public Health Association (APHA) in San Diego, California. I generally don't like to go to conferences because they sometimes devolve into "look at me" sessions of people just blowing their own horn. What I do like, however, is the ability to see what people are putting out [...]
Yes, There Can Be More Vaccinated People Than Unvaccinated in an Outbreak. Here's Why.
When they tell you that vaccines don't work, do some math.
Which Is Better? A False Positive? A False Negative? A True Positive? Or a True Negative?
When dealing with screening tests that are susceptible to giving false positives and false negatives, you need to take into account a number of different things. Most importantly, you need to put your findings into context.
Who Are, or Should Be, the Vaccine Watchdogs?
It's that time of the year again, when the influenza vaccine is recommended for the public and both public and private organizations spread the message of the vaccine's benefits. They tell us that it is needed, why, where we can get one, and some of them even manage to throw in a sad story or [...]
Epidemiological Podcast S0E2: The Weight of the Evidence
On today's podcast, I talk to you about a recent tragedy in our family and how it helped me understand anti-vaccine parents a little more. Not completely, but just enough to realize that there is very little in the way of a debate that one can have with them.
See, When people who don't believe that vaccines save lives tell you that there is no evidence that vaccines are safe, they're either misinformed or lying. On the flip side, when they tell you that there is evidence that vaccines cause autism, they're either misinformed or lying again. There is plenty of evidence for both arguments out there, but only one set of "studies" pass the biological plausibility test (not to say anything about ethics).
However, because an injury (perceived or real) to a child triggers such a deep-seeded, primal reaction, it's hard to be logical or reasonable. When parents see autism as death (when it's not), their search for answers becomes chaotic and full of inferences that are misguided. Anti-vaccine people looking to make a buck take advantage of that, and then we're off to the races on trying to stop further harm, encourage critical thinking, and have an actual debate based on facts.
In about 33 minutes, I tell you about the different kinds of studies out there, and I explain to you why we cannot do a vaccinated vs. unvaccinated study like the antivaxxers want, but we've done plenty of vaccinated vs. unvaccinated studies in an ethical and scientific way.
What we should have been doing all along: Translational Epidemiology
When I was applying to get into the DrPH program, the interviewer -- who would later become my academic advisor -- asked me for my thoughts on Translational Epidemiology. Translational Epidemiology (TE) is the use of epidemiology in different stages between identifying a population-level problem to identifying a solution for it, to evaluating what that [...]
The Frictions That You'll Encounter

Face It, You Think You Know Better Than Me
There's this person, we'll call her "Ginny,"* who is an ardently anti-vaccine. She has multiple blogs, multiple social media accounts, participates in protests (traveling far and wide, money for the family be damned), and even thinks she leads a political party. Ginny has no medical or scientific training, per se. The closest she's gotten is [...]
Zika, Zika, Zika! (An update)
Just a quick update on Zika: A case-control study in French Polynesia has found a strong association between Zika infection and Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS). That is, the proportion of cases of GBS who had previous Zika infection (confirmed by serological analyses) was significantly larger than the proportion of people without GBS who had previous Zika [...]

I want to do my project on this topic & i am implementing the open source software. All i want to know is yours suggestions.
OwnCloud 8.0
Should be pretty much the same, with some GUI changes. The only thing that might get you is any new dependencies, but hopefully there shouldn't be. You could do 7 first, then upgrade, but probably easiest to see how far you get with 8 first.Binod Limbu wrote:Thank you joe.
Well, actually, it is aimed to use the device as personal. Specially targeted to the students. I have just visited the link you have given to me. Is it ok to do the project with OwnCloud 8.0?

As the truth sinks in, we have to accept that, yes, our favorite TV family really is calling it quits. But not just yet. The Barones have come back for 16 more episodes of CBS's smash hitcom, Everybody Loves Raymond, which ends its run in May. Here, Ray Romano ponders his farewell season — and life after Raymond.
TV Guide Online: Why did you decide to come back for one final season?
Ray Romano: It was the stories. The whole thing wasn't the money, as much as it is [$1.8 million an episode] — and I apologize for that to everybody out there. It was all about, "Are we running it into the ground?" We just didn't want to compromise the quality of it.
TVGO: What's up for Raymond this year?
Romano: I [co-wrote] one of the first three [episodes]. The ones I write usually involve sex, so it's a lack-of-sex themed show. I believe I'll get lucky one evening, then the wife ends up having a big fight with the mother, which I think ruins it for me. But it actually turns out to be better. She lets out some anger, and it ends up being the best thing ever. So I end up trying to instigate fights, and of course, it backfires. And there's another sex-themed one. I discover the power of "no." I watch the ballgame instead [of having sex], and the next morning she's even more attentive to me. So I try to abuse that. My sex life is very dysfunctional.
TVGO: What will you do after the show's over?
Romano: I have a putting green I haven't used for five years. And I'm going to grow facial hair. I have a beard now for a movie I did [Grilled], but I know I can't have it for Raymond. That would mean we'd have to write an extra line, like, "Hey, what's with the beard?"
TVGO: Are you planning a movie career?
Romano: I swear I don't know. Who knows if movies is going to be a [successful] thing [for me]? After Welcome to Mooseport, I've gotta regroup. The idea of doing a one-camera show on HBO is entertaining. And who knows if I'll do another sitcom? The wife thinks I'm going to be home a lot more, so maybe you can correct her on that.
TVGO: So will the show have a happy ending?
Romano: As happy as it can be. How happy can I be?
TVGO: Would you ever do a Raymond reunion show?
Romano: Yeah, maybe in six months. Who knows? I just want to know if anyone on the show is even going to talk to me. Once again, I apologize for my salary.

Art Chantry said it best in his interview with Speak Up: "As you can see, computers are a truly mixed bag. It's thrown the 'industry' into a buyer's market. The client has never had more total control over graphic design." The release of Apple's Keynote marks Apple's first attempt at a PowerPoint killer and a shot at a mainstream product.
I'm all for not having to deal with PPT for the rest of my life, I wish it didn't even exist, but what exactly is Keynote doing? In my opinion, merely raising the level, vastly, of mediocre presentations that sales people can now produce. With $10,000 worth of high quality fonts with smooth anti-aliased text, fancy transitions and custom themes (my favorite is "Letterpress") Keynote makes it easier than ever to create "professional" looking presentations.
And why not? It certainly worked for Microsoft.

Putting a quarter in a gumball machine is the highlight of many children's day. With the Dubble Bubble Assorted Gumballs, Select Size, you can bring a smile to children in your area. These packages of Dubble Bubble gum allow you to choose which size best fits your machine so that you can adequately dispense gumballs to the masses.
What Sizes Of Dubble Bubble Assorted Gumballs, Select Sizes Are Available?
You can choose from seven different gumball sizes. There are 13mm, 14mm, 15mm, 19mm, 22mm, 23mm and 24mm. All these Dubble Bubble gumballs are under 1-inch diameter. To order the appropriately sized ball, check your machine to ensure you have the proper size mechanism to dispense the treats. If you get balls that are extremely small in comparison to your opening, then it will distribute multiple balls with each quarter.
Along with the different sizes, the bulk gum packages come with varying amounts of gum. A 13 millimeter gumball box comes with 8,500 pieces while a 24 millimeter box only has 850. Check the package information to verify how many pieces of gum come in the package.
What Are The Dubble Bubble Gum Flavors Included In The Box?
In each package, no matter what size gumball, you get eight flavors. They include strawberry, pineapple, blueberry, lemon-lime, orange, cherry, banana and grape. It comes as an assortment, so all eight flavors are in each box.
What Machine Size Does the Dubble Bubble Gum Work?
The size of the machine depends on the size of the gumball. Larger gumballs, such as the 24 millimeter, need a larger opening to distribute the balls to the consumer. Check your machine for a measurement of the opening to ensure you get the right product. Capacity size, i.e., how many it holds, can be any size. It is the dispensing mechanism that makes a difference.
Can You Sell Dubble Bubble Gum Flavors On Shelves At A Store?
While these boxes of Dubble Bubble are meant for resale, they are not designed to sit on a shelf waiting for eager consumers to choose their favorite. These balls are not individually packaged. To resell them, you should use a vending machine.

Human Feet Keep Getting Bigger
Were you 15 years old the last time you got your feet measured? If so, it might be time to double check your shoe size. According to the Wall Street Journal, your feet are probably changing shape, which may be responsible for the aches and pains caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes.
Retailers such as Nordstrom, Stuart Weitzman, and Cole Haan have reported increased sale of large shoe sizes, and in 2012 TIME revealed that the average shoe size for an American female is between 8 1/2 and 9, up from a 7 1/2 in the 1970s. This change is supposedly due to the fact that people are getting taller (I wouldn't know) and we therefore need larger feet to support our more substantial bodies.
Of course, none of this is an issue if you actually understand your true shoe size and what styles work with the shape of your feet. Which, surprise surprise, most of us don't. According to WSJ, more than one third of men and over half of women straight-up admit to not buying shoes that fit them correctly (okay, guilty as charged). You may not think twice about cramming your toes into those ill-fitting yet oh-so-cute flats, but if you do that frequently enough you'll cause structural damage. For example,
Shoes with a narrow "toe box," the industry term for the front part of the shoe, can push the big toe in and create or accelerate a bunion, says Steven L. Haddad, a Glenview, Ill., orthopedic surgeon and president of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society. It can also constrict the toes, resulting in what are known as "hammertoe deformities."
"It's like when your mom said, 'Don't make that face, it will stay that way,' " he says. "It does actually stay that way when you put so much pressure on the toe over a long period of time."
Yikes! Better step away from those pointed Louboutins. But rest assured that it's not all your fault — the fashion industry is partly to blame. According WSJ:
Designers often weigh fashion against function in the quest to grab a share of the U.S. shoe market, where sales are expected to top $68 billion this year, according to Euromonitor International. To make shoes more visually appealing, manufacturers can fiddle with proportions, such as the height of the heel or the width of the "last," the mold on which a shoe is formed.
Sure, seeking out orthopedically appropriate footwear isn't as fun as going on a shopping spree at Steve Madden, but plenty of awesome brands are trying to make things easier (and more stylish) for us foot-owners. WSJ cites Nordstrom, Cole Haan, and Allen Edmonds as some of the best places to go for well-fitting footwear. For those who like to go their own way, here's a handy list of tips for finding shoes that fit, courtesy of About.com.

Fashionable film: Stylish Elbaflex Nikon-mount 35mm analog SLR camera hits Kickstarter
posted Tuesday, November 14, 2017 at 4:00 PM EDT
If you have any old Nikon-mount film lenses you'd like to get more use out of, a new Kickstarter campaign from Ihagee may well be of interest. The German and Ukrainian camera specialists have created a new 35mm Nikon-mount analog camera, the Elbaflex.
We've said it before and we'll say it again, film isn't dead. Not only is it not dead, but in some ways, it seems to be rising in popularity again. While some film stocks continue to be phased out each year, newcomers have hit the scene as well. The Ihagee Elbaflex has a classic design with a wooden grip, which will come in four leather coating options.
Some of the specifications include a fully mechanical shutter, vertical metal slot closure, frame counter, eye-level SLR pentaprism, re-wind lever, flash PC socket, a 1/60s flash sync speed, hot shoe, 1/4-inch tripod socket and a metal body with a 650-gram weight. For full specification information, click here.
The stylish camera comes at a high cost after this Kickstarter campaign. If you order before 10:00 am ET on November 15, you can purchase an Elbaflex of your own for $499. If you miss your chance then, you'll have to pay at least $529. The retail launch price is expected to be around $1,500, so being an early backer comes with a large discount.
If you'd like your new analog camera with a lens, there are three options available, ranging from $1,299 to $1,499 with three different lens options. To see the options, click here. For early backers, delivery may begin in July of 2018 with other deliveries expected to take place the following month.

It's hard not to feel underwhelmed by ARTPOP – but then, that's the danger of hype, especially hype allied to an artefact that's only partially about music. No other pop star has so completely understood and applied the post-modern theory of The Spectacle as La Gaga, but at the heart of her spectacle, the music comes a poor relation to considerations of design, and the manufacturing of ersatz outrage.
So it is that the most interesting aspects of ARTPOP are the extra-musical ones: the way that "Swine" roots between desire and disgust; the teasing reference to "behind the burka" added to the query, "Do you want to see me naked, lover? Do you want to see the girl who lives behind the aura?"; even, lord help us, the kitsch Jeff Koons sleeve design. Musically, it's pretty much the standard modern electro fare familiar from dozens of contemporaries, from Kylie to Britney. The dubstep riffs are more tortured in places, but when David Guetta and will.i.am are involved in a track's production – as with the bullishly shallow "Fashion!" – you're not straying from the mainstream.
The formula works best on "Swine", where the brutal utility of the twitching buzzsaw synth riff matches the visceral revulsion of the lyric: "I know you want me/ I'm just a pig inside a human body/ Squealer, squealer, you're so disgusting." It's the most interesting slant on the masturbatory eroticism trotted out in "Aura", "Sexxx Dreams" and "G.U.Y.", Gaga's robotic spoken section in the latter making sexual attraction seem grimly denatured. It's left to R Kelly, guesting on "Do What U Want", to supply a modicum of authentic romance.
One suspects it's the final two tracks, "Gypsy" and "Applause", that Gaga believes best represent her attitude – driven to wander, and slave to acclaim – but the title-track contains the real message of ARTPOP. "My art pop could mean anything," she sings – the corollary being that it could also mean nothing at all.

MRes student at Bournemouth University, Faculty of Science and Technology, Department of Archaeology, Anthropology & Forensic Science
My research begins with investigating the accuracy, precision and resolution of Structure from Motion (SfM) – 3D computational modelling using photographs – for recording cultural heritage at both object and site level. The practicalities of using SfM alongside other spatially referenced datasets, within the wider suite of contemporary geomatics, will then be explored, considering underwater and intertidal sites alongside those on dry land. In the longer term, I will be exploring the potential applications of such datasets to computational modelling for the management of cultural heritage in-situ: monitoring, and possibly predicting, change over time. I specialise in using digital technologies to investigate and promote the historic environment, in particular within the coastal and marine sectors. Although my work can involve cultural heritage from any era or area, I am especially interested in post-industrial revolution Europe and in maritime, aviation and contemporary conflict archaeologies. Many of my case studies are in Hampshire, Dorset and Normandy; frequently investigating D-Day and its preparations.

The Revenant, 37" x 48", oil on canvas, 2012.
So, here is a list I made of the top 5 ways on how to be a better artist. It's by no means an effort to preach to the world. I ain't standing on any platform, and I ain't sayin it's true for everyone. I'm simply setting a series of markers for myself in this labyrinth...
Number 1: Be prolific. An artist must always keep working. The idea is similar to an athlete going to the gym or taking hundreds of swings in the batting cage. It is indeed okay to take some time off (and probably required), but when the season is in session, an artist must be 100% dedicated and all in. Slumps do happen, and at times it feels that art is pointless or your efforts are futile, but it's not an excuse to stop working. Ask yourself, "How bad do I want it?" The answer should be simple. An artist must continue to work through hard times.
The Revenant, (detail):
Number 2:. Craftsmanship matters. Some conceptual artists have almost entirely eliminated the craft from their work, even attempted to distinguish the "high" artist from the "lowly" craftsman. But I believe good art, even conceptual art, still requires a certain high level of craftsmanship. An artist must pay attention to every detail in his work. This does not mean that every work of art needs to be realistic or appear pristine, but there can be no mistakes in the final piece. Regarding painting, I think good craftsmanship requires an advanced ability to draw, even if the artist is creating work that is completely abstract or expressionistic. Drawing practice is basically the training of hand-eye coordination to create exactly what you want, rather than hoping something interesting develops haphazardly, even if the finished style appears random, dirty or gestural.
The Revenant, (detail):
Number 3: Study all subjects, not just art. In the early 20th century, United States Supreme Court Justice, Felix Frankfurter, was asked by a young man how to become a great lawyer. He advised the young man not to limit his studies to the law, but to embrace the study of all fields, including history, art, literature, science, sports, other cultures, the economy, and the environment. I believe Justice Frankfurter's wisdom applies to those who wish to become great artists. Art represents culture, and these other fields of study embody who we are on this planet.
Globalization continues to develop and refine a global culture, thus artists should think globally. The timeless pieces of the past are those which appeal to populations everywhere. Artistic creation is an ongoing practice and lifelong study, and this study encompasses all fields which make up the global population.
The Revenant, (detail):
Number 4: Continue to develop your taste in art. By taste, I am referring to the ability to make comparative judgments of art. The more a person develops his taste, the more objective he becomes in his analysis. Often times a person will disregard certain types of art, declaring, "I know what I like, and it's not that." Such a mindset gives the person an excuse to remain close-minded, essentially reaching a plateau in his appreciation of artistic experiences. While it is obviously acceptable to dislike certain works, an artist should always keep an open mind and continue to refine and develop his taste in art by studying other artists, attending exhibitions and museums, and expanding his life in general by studying all fields, as discussed in Number 3 above. Just try not to be snobbish or pretentious about it.
Number 5: Stick with your own voice. This one probably sounds cliche, but it is true and easy to forget. It is easy for an artist to be influenced by the work of famous artists who are successful monetarily. But the attempt to imitate others usually results in banal and stifled work. The challenge for any artist is to bring something game-changing and new to the table. This can only be done by sticking with the artist's own voice, and standing by his work, even when others criticize it.

This can only be done by sticking with the artist's own voice, and standing by his work, even when others criticize it.
An artist must continue to develop his own voice, just like continuing to develop his own taste and continuing to study other fields. The more the artist develops his taste, the less likely he will be to try to imitate others, and the more likely he will be to venture into unexplored territory. On the flip side, simply creating work that people expect, or that appeals to the artist's past collectors, his critics, or people he knows, will certainly result in stagnant, repetitive art. No matter what an artist creates, there will always be people who criticize it. An artist must simply remember to stay true to himself.
