The Messages app is the default mode of communication for many iPhone and iPad users. Apart from sending iMessage and media files, you can also share your Live Location with your contacts using the Messages app. You don't have to rely on third-party apps for most of such functions.
But when it comes to keeping your chats secure, we'll show how to lock your messages on your iPhone and iPad. The steps remain the same for both platforms.
1. Lock Messages App Using Screen Time
Screen Time on your iPhone measures how much time you spend on your iPhone. You can use its App Limit feature to lock the Messages app on your iPhone. Here's how.
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
Step 2: Scroll down and select Screen Time.
Step 3: Tap on App Limits.
Step 4: Select Add Limit.
Step 5: Choose the Messages app and tap on Next at the top-right corner.
Step 6: Use the time sliders to set the usage limit, after which the Messages app will get locked.
Step 7: Tap on Add at the top-right corner to confirm.
After the Messages app gets locked after being used for the specified time, you'll need to enter the Screen Time passcode to unlock it.
2. Lock Messages App Using Face ID and Passcode
You can use Face ID and Passcode to password-protect your text messages on your iPhone and iPad. You can implement it for nearly every app, but some might not support it, depending on your iPhone/iPad model.
Here's how to enable it.
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
Step 2: Scroll down and tap on Face ID & Passcode.
Step 3: Tap on 'Set Up Face ID' option.
Step 4: Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the setup process.
You can refer to our post if Face ID is not working on your iPhone or iPad.
3. Hide Message Previews
You can hide the Notification Previews for the Messages app. This will also let you hide messages on the lock screen of your iPhone and iPad. Here's how.
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
Step 2: Scroll down and tap on Messages.
Step 3: Tap on Notifications.
Step 4: Scroll down and tap on Show Previews.
Step 5: Tap on Never.
Step 6: Return to the previous screen to choose to hide notifications from Lock Screen, Notification Centre, or just show Banners.
4. Lock Messages App Using Shortcuts
You can use the Shortcuts app on your iPhone to set up an automation to lock the Messages app on your iPhone. These steps are also applicable to iPad users.
Step 1: Open the Clock app on your iPhone or iPad.
Step 2: Tap on Timer at the bottom-right corner.
Step 3: Tap on When Timer Ends.
Step 4: Scroll down and select Stop Playing. Then, tap on Done at the top-right corner.
Step 5: Close the Clock app and open Shortcuts.
Step 6: Tap on Automation at the bottom.
Step 7: Select the Plus icon at the top-right corner and select Create Personal Automation.
Step 8: Scroll down and select App.
Step 9: Tap on Choose and select Messages from the list of app.
Step 10: Tap on Next and select Add Action.
Step 11: Select Start Timer from the list of actions.
Step 12: Set the Timer for 1 second and select Next.
Step 13: Tap the toggle to disable Ask Before Running. Then, select Don't Ask from the prompt.
Step 14: Tap on Done at the top-right corner to confirm.
When someone tries to open the Messages app, your iPhone will get locked automatically and will only unlock using your Face ID or passcode.
5. Enable Two-Factor Authentication
Enabling Two-Factor Authentication on your Apple ID prevents anyone from accessing your Messages on the web. Here's how to enable it using your iPhone or iPad.
Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
Step 2: Tap on your profile name.
Step 3: Select Password and Security.
Step 4: Enable Two-Factor Authentication.
When you set up two-factor authentication, you'll need your device's password and a 6-digit code sent to your phone number or other Apple devices using the same Apple ID. Alternatively, you can use the security key that you can generate after you enable two-factor authentication.
Lock Messages App
That is how you can lock the Messages app on your iPhone and protect your conversations from unwanted access. You can also read our post if you see incorrect badge notifications in the Messages app on your iPhone.

The Detroit Lions are getting a late start to the NFL season, playing the second-to-last game of the week on Monday night against the New York Jets. On one hand, that gives Lions fans all of Sunday to enjoy opening week. On the other hand, it seems we get left out on the fun a little bit as the swarm of games this weekend has everyone all excited this morning.
But according to NFL experts across the league, the Lions will be joining in the excitement this week, too, just a little delayed from everyone else.
The Jets aren't exactly a highly-regarded team entering 2018. There are question marks all over their roster. A rookie quarterback, a patchwork offensive line, a new offensive coordinator and a bunch of interesting but disjointed players on defense.
As a result, almost everyone is picking the Lions to come out of Week 1 with their first win of the season. Check it out:
ESPN: 9 of 10 experts pick LIONS
CBS: 6 of 8 experts pick LIONS
SB Nation: 6 of 7 experts pick LIONS
Pro Football Focus: 8 of 8 expert picks LIONS
Sports Illustrated: 6 of 7 experts pick LIONS
Consensus: 35 of 40 (87.5%) experts pick LIONS
So while Lions fans may be feeling a little bit of a hangover from a rough preseason, it appears there's plenty of reason to be optimistic... at least for this week.
Looking for our picks on the game? I'm afraid you'll have to wait until Monday.

A couple of days ago, we had a high-severity incident affecting our platforms, resulting in an unpleasant experience when using our learning platform.
This write-up discusses what happened in the spirit of transparency with our users, kind supporters, and incredible contributors.
Quick recap of the series of events leading up to the outage:
New Responsive Web Design (RWD) Certification release.
Last week (Week 16, 2022), we released a new certification and new features on the interactive coding platform.
The changes include a brand-new editor to let you work cohesively on the project-based curriculum without needing to leave freeCodeCamp. We tested this new stack for months in safe environments like their own machines and a testing platform known as staging.
After a good few weeks, we confirmed the UX was acceptable. We released everything to our production environment (the main learning platform at
) in an early access mode for our community enthusiasts.Finally, after an extensive evaluation of the features, we moved it out of the early access into the first certification on the learning map.
First signs of performance overheads.
We saw that our MongoDB instances would complain of a small Oplog size during this.
Oplog in our context usually doesn't affect end-users like you directly. Regardless, we started fixing some of our code to help the issues. We increased our Oplog size as well, just in case. More on this later.
Dueling with operating our infrastructure at scale and the costs that come with it.
We optimize our infrastructure operating costs (paid staff hours + actual cloud bills) to get the most value like any organization. We always have an ongoing dilemma with op-costs. As a non-profit, our resources are limited, and we still need to serve millions of users like you every day.
To balance this, we have measures in place for some slack between the infrastructure capacity we need and provide. We have automation to scale our infrastructure up as required. We also have safeguards to prevent accidental overspending.
Here is an example. Before the latest release, we brought up the storage on the MongoDB cluster to twice the size just because we knew that we would need a little more space.
However, this wasn't enough, and we should have looked at other areas to avoid the outage in hindsight.
On average, we have 10 million successful challenge submissions each day. Every instance of "Submit and move to the next challenge" is a successful submission.
An average user can submit challenges at best once every 2-5 minutes or so until now. The new practice-focused editor means you can submit orders of magnitude faster than before. The challenges are now tiny steps to reinforce your knowledge with practice. But there are hundreds of these in a given project.
So, what happened?
In the last few days leading up to the outage, we slowly clogged up our API until it failed miserably.
The overhaul of the most popular certification that we have had for seven years is bound to make some anticipation. Twitter & this forum has countless comments about how much you all like it. As word spread about the newly updated certification, most of you started trying it out.
Our API is a Node.js app that runs on several virtual machines on Microsoft Azure. Until the latest release, these apps have never been used anywhere near to the capacity they can handle. We had seen only 15%-20% of use on average for at least a year now.
As users complete challenges faster than before, more simultaneous submissions need validation by the API. The web app (a React frontend) sends more requests to the API, which sends more updates to the database, and so on. The HTTP requests started getting resolved slower and slower until timing out eventually.
This slow clogging up did not happen instantly; it took about a half-week before tipping over, so it went unnoticed.
So, how did we fix it?
When we make a new release, we monitor our platform for signs of unusual activity. If we see something that we do not like, we roll back to a previous version as a rule of our DevOps protocol.
This outage was not about a single code bug or our strategy for the infrastructure to handle loads. We could not simply revert this and work on a quick fix.
We went on an all-hands-on-deck mode to understand the problems I summarized earlier.
It took us a while because we were getting all the wrong signals. MongoDB completed the queries slowly, but there was no significant spike in memory or compute resources in the database cluster. Our API instances were at capacity (serving as many req/s as possible). However, our VMs were still underutilized overall (no severe spike in memory or compute).
The only things that we knew at the time are:
- Our requests were slow and timing out.
- We could identify some commands are taking longer than they should.
So, we scrambled to optimize the logic we used in our code. We even dropped some endpoints that were used heavily but not mission-critical.
Things improved slightly, but our APIs still could not handle the loads.
This incident was particularly bizarre because we did not see any significant increase in the number of users online working through the challenges. We realized a bit late that the same number of users could generate way higher traffic than before by crushing through the new certification.
This experience was very bitter-sweet for us. It was a clear indication that we need to make changes and that the users are using the new curriculum—at an unprecedented scale.
We decided to bite the bullet and spin up more servers than allowed by our budget. Combine that with the fact that we are working on about half-a-dozen new project-based certifications; indeed, this approach is not financially viable long-term.
We need to get back to the drawing board.
Going forward from here:
Over the years, we have gathered a lot of cruft. Our API is old, and our DB design has not changed ever since its inception.
We use MongoDB and a single collection for the user. This design works well because our mental model for the platform has only one thing: You—the user, your profile, and your submissions. It means a single document
about you as a user with all that data. However, the way we interact with the document
is not optimal. At least not with the new approach for project-based learning, and it results in many updates to the document
very frequently.
Traditionally, we never have put any blocking mechanisms between you submitting a challenge and getting it saved. So requests for submission result in the DB updates happening instantly.
But this has a few problems.
At the scale that we operate, the new practice-based approach needs hundreds of instances of the API, all running in parallel and updating the user records. Plus, the DB needs to guarantee the transaction for each request.
In theory, our simple and proven mental model for the API means we can scale it infinitely. Still, it's something we can not do practically. It would mean a very, very high operational cost.
So, our team is hard at work as you read this to rejig some of the architecture. This time we are thinking about scale as a first-class citizen of the design. We are thinking about integrating more observability tools and measuring performance more closely than before. We are thinking about doing chaos engineering that we haven't done earlier.
We promise what we have in the works is very exciting. The platform will become much more stable than ever before, scaling up for use by hundreds of millions of users.
So, above everything, we sincerely appreciate your patience with us during the outage that lasted over 30 hours on the learning platform.
The community was vibrant during this incident across all the other pillars of our community. And in case you did not notice, all our different platforms like the developer news, the forum, the chat, etc. running closely alongside the learning platform were not even affected.
We are grateful to every member of the mod team for helping manage the support requests.
Cheers & Happy Coding!

Preparing for the hurricane season amidst a pandemic
The whole world is in the grip of a deadly virus. COVID 19 has turned out to be a major pandemic. The United States now has more cases of coronavirus than any other country and with the death toll amounting to more than 50000 people, the nation is in a crisis mode.
What happens when a nation already dealing with such a dangerous virus also has to prepare for the annual deadly hurricane season? For decades, the USA has witnessed catastrophic hurricanes and tropical storms that have wreaked havoc in major cities across the country, especially those which lie near the coastal regions. Right now, an intersection between the hurricane season and COVID 19 seems to be imminent and with the precautionary procedures that are already in place to battle the virus, the new requirements due to the hurricane situation would only complicate and possible worsen things more.
The hurricane season calls for a coming together of communities to strive against tropical storms and hurricanes. However, with social distancing and enforced isolation in place, the very idea of consolidation poses as the greatest threat to the lives of the citizens of the USA. The Atlantic hurricane season will begin from June 1 and every state that lies near the Atlantic coast is vulnerable. With the pandemic factoring in, concerned authorities need to strategize and formulate a new approach to dealing with this double emergency situation which is at odds with itself.
What authorities need to figure out is to find a means to tackle a hurricane+COVID 19 scenario. Let's see what are the different issues and challenges that may arise:
Exhausted response systems:
The annual hurricane season, each year demands a highly alert response system across the country to respond to emergencies and cater to the affected population as efficiently and swiftly as it can. This year, with COVID 19 already putting a lot of logistical and financial pressure on state as well as the federal government, emergency respondents are overloaded with countless cases all across the country. Hospitals and institutions are struggling with an increased number of patients to care for and as the hurricane season approaches, lack of resources makes it extremely difficult to assimilate those affected with the damages caused by the hurricane season.
Evacuation and sheltering:
In a situation where quarantine is being enforced over the population in order to eradicate the virus, evacuation strategies will be needed to be reassessed since the very idea of evacuation becomes counterproductive as it runs the risk of exposing a large part of the population to the virus. Sheltering from the hurricane season is another problem as it would lead to countless people being incorporated in shared space which defeats the purpose of maintaining social distancing.
Evacuees and people sharing shelters would need to be examined for the symptoms of the virus and they would have to be extra careful when it comes to interacting and residing in such an environment. A crowded shelter place would need to be thoroughly sanitized to stop it from becoming a breeding ground for the virus.
Shortage of supplies:
The pandemic has already caused a steep decline in the availability of basic supplies and food items which is causing an alarm across the country. As swarms of panic buyers have already depleted stores and the marketplace for essential items, the hurricane season is likely to witness an extreme shortage in supplies. With production units coming to a halt and the hurricane season delaying it even further, providing citizens with resources to sustain lives becomes a major issue for the government.
Availability of personnel:
Each year, thousands of government employees working in emergency services are available to cater to the needs of people across the country who have suffered from the hurricane season. This year, with more than a million people in the grip of a deadly virus, the availability of personnel in various sectors is going to become a major problem in the efforts required to tackle the hurricane situation across the country.
Economic imbalance:
Each year, the hurricane season inflicts millions of dollars' worth of physical damage that causes massive ruptures on the economy of the country. This time around, COVID 19-as it rips through American cities-has already caused a massive meltdown in the economy. According to a report by Mckinsey and Company, it could take three years for the USA to recover from the financial ramifications caused by a coronavirus. In times such as these, the added financial burdens brought on by the hurricane season is only going to make things worse.
These are some of the major issues that are going to inflict a lot of damage to the financial and societal structure of the USA. We hope to see the government implementing actionable solutions to tackle this ordeal.

The Last Of Us Part II game director Neil Druckmann, in a podcast interview with Troy Baker, responded to fan criticisms that the game was too long. For the actual conversation, skip to around the hour mark in the podcast link below.
The actor and director discussed the development of the game's script in real-time, with Troy mentioning that Naughty Dog's marketing team had not once intercepted the script and asked for writing changes.
At this point, Druckmann intercedes and says: "I've seen someone – fuck I'm gonna get in trouble for this – I don't care. Someone recently said 'games are too long' and part of their thread they're saying like, 'it's because marketing wants to say how big games are and that's how they're gonna sell the game.'"
He goes on to say that during his 16 years at Naughty Dog, that "marketing has never – not once – given us a creative note to say 'this should be in the game, or the game should be this long, or this short, or have this feature."
He affirms that "the game is this long because we wanted to make it this long."
Druckmann later adds: "It might be too long for certain people, it might be long enough for certain people, but it's this long because that was our call."
Meanwhile, Naughty Dog confirmed a new single-player game is in development.
Among the multiple job listings available, they include an opening for a Level/Environment Designer, Melee/Gameplay Animator, and a Tools Programmer.
Recently, The Last Of Us Part II took the top spot in PlayStation Store's monthly download charts.
According to the official Playstation blog, the post-pandemic sequel was the most downloaded game from the PS Store in both the EU and throughout the US and Canada for June.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite – PS5
Related Products
Set in the iconic Alien universe, Aliens Fireteam Elite is a cooperative third-person survival shooter that drops your fireteam of hardened marines into a desperate fight to contain the evolving Xenomorph threat.
Face off against waves of terrifying Xenomorph and Weyland-Yutani Synthetic foes alongside two players or AI teammates, as you and your fireteam desperately fight your way through four unique campaigns that introduce new storylines to the Alien universe. Create and customize your own Colonial Marine, choosing from an extensive variety of classes, weapons, gear and perks, battling overwhelming odds in this heart-pounding survival shooter experience.
THE ULTIMATE HUNT: Play a pivotal role in the epic events that occur 23 years after the original Alien trilogy as a Colonial Marine stationed aboard the UAS Endeavor, battling terrifying Xenomorph threats. Stunning visuals, iconic enemies, realistic environments, powerful weapons, futuristic equipment, and an eerie soundscape, combined with new storylines in a series of replayable campaigns, expand upon the story from the blockbuster films.
SURVIVE THE HIVE: Face overwhelming odds against over 20 enemy types, including 11 different Xenomorphs along the evolutionary scale from Facehuggers to Praetorians, each designed with their own intelligence to ambush, outsmart and eviscerate vulnerable marines. Utilize cover and master team strategy to survive extraterrestrial threats as they overrun your fireteam from every angle, swarm through doors and vents, scramble across walls and ceilings, and strike from darkness with uncanny ferocity.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR FIRETEAM: Choose from five unique classes - Gunner, Demolisher, Technician, Doc and Recon - each with their own special abilities and character perks. Utilize an extensive arsenal of 30+ weapons and 70+ mods/attachments in your effort to eradicate the Alien threat. An innovative Perk Board modifies and improves your abilities, while a unique Challenge Card system alters the approach to each Campaign mission, offering a new experience with every playthrough.
Alien: Isolation, released in 2014, is a timeless game. It gives fans of Ridley Scott's masterpiece a chance to face off against one of cinema's most terrifying creations. The game completely encapsulated the fear and claustrophobia that made the film so enthralling. It also renewed confidence in the franchise after the horrific (for the wrong reasons) Aliens: Colonial Marines. So, when they announced Aliens Fireteam Elite, I was hopeful that we'd get another great experience that fans of Aliens deserve.
And we did. The game faithfully recreates the look, feel and, most importantly, sound of the marines and their weaponry. Each level is expertly crafted with wonderful attention to detail. There are many loving nods to James Cameron's sequel. It'll keep fans smiling as they take down hordes of Xenomorphs.
Is This Another Bug Hunt?
Set 23 years after the trilogy left off, your squad is on a rescue mission to a space station above the planet LV-895. It's not long until things go sideways, and you'll wish you had just nuked everything from orbit. The campaign has 12 missions. You'll blast your way through a space station, a deserted refinery, a Promethean ship, and, finally, LV-895. Each level comes straight from the movies – even the bad ones – and they look fantastic. And, though run-of-the-mill, Aliens Fireteam Elite does a far better job at weaving a cohesive story than the films.
Gameplay-wise there isn't much variety. The choice of weaponry, challenge cards, and enemies keep things fresh. Ultimately, you'll be running from one section to the next, gunning down Xenomorphs until you reach an objective. Once here, you'll typically have to hold off against hordes of Xeno's until you either hack a terminal or open a door. Aliens Fireteam Elite won't be winning any awards for its story. But the random placement of enemies and the often hilarious interactions with mission command will keep you coming back for more.
You play every game mode as a squad of three. This can be a mix of human players or AI-controlled synthetics. Oddly enough, I found playing with AI much more reliable than actual people. Obviously playing with friends is the best way, but it surprised me that playing with AI was better than playing with random people. Even on higher difficulties, where the game advises against AI, I found they held their own better than many humans I was matchmade with. And not once did I fall victim to their friendly fire!
Each level is also littered with convenient waist-high cover, much like Gears of War. But whereas Gears of War required you to hunker down and wait for the perfect time to return fire, Aliens Fireteam is very different. Xenomorphs don't take cover or wait. They charge at speed, in numbers, and will overwhelm a position in moments. So, except for a couple of levels where the enemy changes from Xeno's, you won't be playing the game as the suggested cover-shooter.
I Keep This For Close Encounters
That's not to say that combat doesn't work. It's the cover system that doesn't. The gunplay and character movement are fast, responsive, and accurate. There's a fantastic selection of weapons to unlock and upgrade. It goes beyond the iconic M14A, Smartgun, or sawed-off shotgun. There's variety, and you have the ability to attach various components to increase stats and add bonuses. My personal favourite is explosive rounds on a shotgun. You can also add new colours and decals to each weapon for that extra personal touch.
And the wide variety of weapons will come in handy as you face off against various Xenomorphs. Spitters, Warriors, Prowlers, and Drones will all stand in your way with varied attack patterns. There are a few other enemy types, as well as even stronger Xeno's in later levels, but I won't spoil anything here.
The marines also come in various flavours. Gunner, Demolisher, Technician, Doc, Recon, and Phalanx (added in a post-launch update, with more classes promised in the future). It brings something fresh to the fight. Experimenting, levelling up, and unlocking new skills is immensely satisfying. Each one has strengths and can bring something to a firefight. The Demolisher with their rockets is great for crowd control. Gunner perks increase firepower and fire rate for the team. Recon highlight where pesky Xenos are hiding. Docs can heal the team and save precious medikits. Phalanxes are excellent at leading the charge as well as holding positions with their shields. But my personal favourite is the Technician with their powerful sentry turret.
Each class can level up and get new perks to enhance their combat skill. These perks and modifiers stack Tetris-style. They can also link, to create interesting combinations for either yourself, your kit, or your team. For instance, my Technician build turns my sentry turret into a flame turret, with a 15% increase to burn damage. I have perks that increase the fire rate of my turret and myself – or even a teammate – if we are within 10 metres of the turret. I also have this linked to a perk that gains the turret a faster repair bonus on top of the fire rate while I'm next to it. The perk system is a game all to itself and adds much more tactical depth. Combined with the aforementioned attachments, these can make for some deadly builds. They'll keep you experimenting and diving back into the campaign and hordes modes again and again.
Finally, there are Challenge Cards that add an extra layer of replayability. Some increase enemy health. Others require you to complete a mission within a certain time limit, or without letting anyone in the squad go down. While others will randomly remove a weapon from your arsenal for a mission. These cards help keep the 12 missions fresh and extend the longevity of the game.
I've encountered a few bugs that weren't Xeno's during my time with Aliens Fireteam. Mostly audio not syncing or gun noises looping for entire sections of a mission even when I wasn't firing. But these bugs have been addressed by a passionate development team that listens to player feedback and acts quickly.
Game Over Man, Game Over
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is exactly what fans of Aliens have been waiting for. It's stuffed with guns, gadgets, and acid blood. Constant cooperative firefights against some of sci-fi's most iconic monsters are always fun. Each mission takes no more than 20 minutes to complete so has a great drop-in, drop-out feel. Newly introduced Extreme and Insane difficulty settings present an endgame challenge that even the most battle-hardened Marine will struggle with. The great level of customisation and the depth of the perk system help set this title apart from a typical shooter. You'll be shouting out lines from the film as you become the ultimate badass.

|| By FITSNEWS || For the third election cycle, former Arkansas governor and Fox News' host Mike Huckabee is seriously weighing a bid for the presidency of the United States.
That's right … the United States. Not the monthly meeting of the "ignorant tight-ass club."
In fact Huckabee (who nearly won the 2008 "First in the South" Republican presidential primary) is so serious about keeping his options open that he's giving up his gig with the network.
"There's been a great deal of speculation as to whether I would run for president," Huckabee said this week on his show, which has run since 2008. "And if I were willing to absolutely rule that out, I could keep doing this show. But I can't make such a declaration."
According to Real Clear Politics, Huckabee "has reactivated his tight-knit team of advisers and taken several other the behind-the-scenes steps that suggest he is indeed serious about launching a second White House bid."
Well, well …
Previously, Huckabee has said he was waiting on God to tell him whether to run for president …
In 2012, God apparently said "no."
"Under the best of circumstances being president is a job that takes one to the limit of his or her human capacity," Huckabee said at the time. "For me to do it apart from an inner confidence that I was undertaking it without God's full blessing is simply unthinkable."
Ummmm … okay.
In Huckabee's absence, fellow social conservative Rick Santorum emerged as a force to be reckoned with in the 2012 "Republican" primary – luring legions of impressionable voters in early-voting Iowa and South Carolina. For what it's worth Santorum – who's been out of elected office since being ousted from the U.S. Senate in 2006 – is keeping his 2016 options open.
Both of these candidates are worthless in our book …
Santorum was a fiscal liberal during his tenure in the U.S. Senate, while Huckabee was a fiscal liberal during his tenure as governor of Arkansas. Neither candidate has demonstrated anything resembling the sort of commitment to individual taxpayers, individual liberty or the free market that we need to see from a credible presidential contender.
Huckabee is also a strong supporter of the federal government's invasive "Common Core" curriculum – which will hurt him with many of the far right voters who would otherwise consider backing his candidacy (as it will hurt the candidacy of recently anointed GOP frontrunner Jeb Bush).
Oh, and he's got problems on the immigration issue too … which appears as though it will be quite the hot button topic this election cycle.
Frankly, we wish candidates like Santorum and Huckabee would just go away … however their ongoing relevance within the GOP primary cycle (especially in early-voting Iowa and South Carolina) helps hasten the demise of the "Republican" brand.
Which as we've previously noted is just fine with us …
After all, "Republican" rule ain't what it used to be.

Modimolle-Mookgophong workers finally receive salaries

June 1, 2018By Chandu Ligege
The Department of Health in Mpumalanga says it is aware there are security concerns at the Mapulaneng Hospital in Bushbuckridge and is engaging with revelant structures to ensure that is is safe to work at the institution.
On the 6th May 2018, a doctor at the hospital was shot at by an armed robber while he was on his way to his residence after a night shift.
The doctors affiliated to the South African Medical Association at the hospital have since stopped working night shift because they fear for their lives and have been pleading with management at the hospital to hire armed security personnel.
SAMA Lowveld region Secretary Sifiso Nxumalo told Capricorn FM News that the management has refused to honour their request by arguing that posting armed security personnel at a public hospital goes against hospital policy.
Spokesperson for the department Dumisani Malamule says they will communicate further, as soon as they have made a decision.
Malamule says they do not want to speculate on what final decision will be taken on the matter.

2021 Solar Industry Benchmark Study
2021 Solar Industry Benchmark Study
Conducted by the Raycatch team, this industry benchmark study shows for the very first time the true potential of solar asset optimization through AI analysis of real production data and clear quantification of technical issues in PV plants around the world.
We have collected anonymous raw data from 75 random geographically diverse utility-scale solar plants with a total capacity of 1.2GW, which represent about a quarter of the PV assets we process worldwide on a daily basis.
We processed the data with DeepSolar™, our cloud-based, fully-automated diagnostics system that delivers a 360° view of PV assets. The system applied our proprietary algorithms and deep learning techniques to the existing data to eliminate the multiple data noises, identify patterns and assign them to the respective root-causes.
This way, we were able to clearly present the different plants' true "state of health" and formulate the global average in different categories.

Stephanie Murphy's Jan. 6 Story Echoes Refugee Experience
On the morning of Jan. 6, 2021, one of Rep. Stephanie Murphy's closest friends in Congress called her, worried about what lay ahead for them over the next few hours.
"It could be a dangerous day," Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, Democrat of Arizona, recalls telling Murphy, a Florida Democrat. Sinema invited her and another colleague, Rep. Kathleen Rice, Democrat of New York, to use her hideaway—a private, unmarked space that every Senator is assigned—in case anything got sketchy. "Spend some time there, and then we'll all connect together later."
Hours later, Murphy and Rice had frantically found their way to Sinema's hideaway, hoping the violent mob that had just breached the Capitol would pass them by. Sinema was taken to the underground by Capitol police, who evacuated the Senate. She then saw that protesters had been near her office and she took to Twitter to alert them. Two officers were asked to help Rice and Murphy get safer places.
They ran to the underground passage as soon as the officers found them. Sinema recalls her friends arriving with the officers. "Stephanie had a look of terror on her face," she tells TIME. Murphy recalls feeling in shock. "I couldn't believe that here I was, a refugee immigrant who had fled authoritarianism, now trapped in the basement of the Capitol, the place where I thought I would be safest," she says. "The heart of our democracy."
Murphy now serves as a member of the Capitol committee, investigating what was the most serious attack since 1812 War of 1812. She is trying to prevent another such incident from happening. Murphy's turn will come on Tuesday after six hearings, in which the other Jan.6 members took a leading role. This is as Murphy helps lead questioning, as the committee examines the roles of violent extremist organizations, like the Proud Boy and Oath Keepers during the attack. It also examines their connections to Donald Trump and associates.
In a way, the hearing will serve as Murphy's swan song on Capitol Hill, as she is retiring when her term ends in January. She says she's leaving elected office to spend more time with her two young kids. "I have a very narrow timeframe to be present enough in their lives when the hard years come with hormones and bigger challenges," she says.
Right now, though, her priority is the committee's investigation, which has already exceeded most of Washington's expectations for not only captivating a national audience, but for making a case for Trump's culpability—both morally and legally—for the deadly attack.
It's now on her to advance the committee's probe. "I want it to be absolutely airtight," she says of her presentation. "Backed up by very clear evidence. Credibility of this committee is very important to me. You have to be precise. We can't exaggerate, but the reality is, we don't need to."
Murphy's career and, in some cases, her whole life have been leading to this moment.

Patriotism and gratitude
Murphy was born in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in 1978. It was just three years after the American forces retreated from Vietnam. At the same time, the Communist-controlled government began oppressing its people. "They were sending people to work camps," Murphy explains. "They were hard labor camps, and a lot of people didn't survive their time in camp."
Six months after her sixth birthday, she fled with her family by boat. It wasn't a seamless voyage. It ran out fuel, and only had one can of water. After the vessel was captured by pirates, the U.S. Navy rescued it and transported them to Malaysia. There they were taken to a refugee camp where they could then return to American shores.
Murphy grew up in Northern Virginia but kept in touch with family members who didn't make it out of Vietnam. Her patriotism was fueled by a deep appreciation for America's freedoms, and the realization of what Murphy's life would have looked like if she had not made it out.
As an undergraduate at William and Mary, she studied economics and worked at Deloitte as a strategy and operation consultant to help pay her student loans. After the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, she changed course, enrolling in Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service and then becoming a national security officer at the Department of Defense. She moved to Central Florida in 2004 with her husband after four years of civil service.
She was recruited by Democrats to challenge Rep. John Mica in 2016, a Republican that felt less vulnerable following redistricting. Her stunning win was possible thanks to the assistance of several national leaders, including President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
Murphy arrived on Capitol Hill at a time when Republicans controlled Congress and the Trump administration was working to reverse much of the Obama administration's accomplishments. Her colleagues describe her as a no-nonsense centrist who can work well with Republicans but who doesn't suffer fools. Because of her history of bipartisan cooperation, she was chosen to join the Jan.6 committee. "She's very credible when she frames her arguments and her concerns for the committee," Rep. Kurt Schrader, Democrat of Oregon, tells TIME. "It's not we-hate-Donald-Trump type stuff. It's about what he actually did and didn't do."
Murphy was informed by Nancy Pelosi (Speaker of the House) that a special committee had been formed to investigate the attack. Murphy made a big deal about it. Pelosi received a request to be selected from Murphy. It highlighted her past experiences as an authoritarian fleeing and as a defense department national security specialist. Pelosi was also spotted on the House's floor, and Murphy gave Pelosi another push. "I told her I'd really like to be on the committee," Murphy says. Pelosi was not committed. "As usual, she would never say anything but 'Yes, dear.'"
A few weeks later, Murphy got word that she had made the cut in what seemed like one of those gradually-then-suddenly type of breakthroughs. It was only a few hours before House leadership would hold a press conference announcing the high-profile committee's membership.
Democracy "Not Self-Sustaining"
The hearing Murphy will lead on Tuesday with Rep. Jamie Raskin, Democrat of Maryland, will be the committee's seventh so far. Earlier hearings have revealed how Trump continued to spread claims of widespread voter fraud even after multiple White House advisers told him they were not true, and how Trump pressured Pence to reject the congressional certification of Biden's Electoral College victory. Another focused on Trump's attempts to pressure state election officials to decertify Biden's victories, and another on his attempts to corrupt the Justice Department to help overturn the election.
Tuesday's hearing will come at a pivotal moment for the panel; it will be the first since the abruptly scheduled session two weeks ago, in which Cassidy Hutchinson, a top aide to former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, provided the most damning testimony against the former President to date. The panel heard from her that Trump was told by the Secret Service that his supporters had been heavily armed Jan. 6. But he instructed them to march to the Capitol, an admission that has led to former prosecutors claiming that he is now subject to criminal liability. He also wanted to march with them to the Capitol, despite White House counsel Pat Cipollone saying Trump would be "charged with every crime imaginable" if he did, Hutchinson testified.
Murphy will come to Tuesday's hearing with the goal of revealing the convergence between White House officials and the far-right extremists who stormed the Capitol. Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, vice-chair of the panel and Republican, suggested that Roger Stone was a mediator between Trump and the Oath Keepers. He was in regular communication with Meadows and Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Guiliani leading up to Jan. 6. Sources familiar with the committee's plans say it will be fleshing out more substantive contacts between the extremist groups and Trump's allies on Tuesday.
More than 1000 interviews were conducted and over 130,000 documents have been collected by the committee. Condensing all that into a compelling story has been among the most challenging aspects of the committee's work, according to Murphy. "We're showing the American people a sliver of what the entire investigation has uncovered," she says. "And we're trying to keep it in narrative form."
Murphy claims that the panel also used a strategy to prevent counter-programming by Fox News and other Trump-allied media. "I think what's been hard for Fox is that we are proving our case using Republican voices and witnesses."
She described as "pretty weak" the argument from Republicans on Capitol Hill that Democrats are focusing on Jan. 6 to divert attention from inflation and other economic woes.
"There is nothing about investigating and understanding the facts of Jan. 6 that prevents you from doing any number of other policy and legislative things," she says. "That's kind of silly. That's just them admitting they don't know how to walk and chew gum."
Murphy remains laser-focused on her committee work. She wants the nation to pay close attention to what it is revealing—and for Congress to move forward on its recommendations, which will be released in a report in the fall.
"We hope they'll understand how precious and fragile democracy is and how it needs to be preserved and protected by patriots," she says. "It's not self-sustaining."
That's why, she says, she's bent on presenting the committee's latest findings during the Tuesday hearing as clearly as possible.
"There's nothing more powerful for a viewer," she says, "than to see it for themselves."

Duke Physicians Named to Argentine Academy of Medicine
DURHAM, N.C. -- The National Academy of Medicine of Buenos Aires has named Dr. Ralph Snyderman, president and chief executive officer of Duke University Health System, and Dr. David C. Sabiston, former chairman of Duke's Department of Surgery, to be honorary members of the academy.
"We are quite honored to be asked to join this distinguished organization, which helps guide medical treatment, research and policy in South America," Snyderman said. "It shows that Duke medicine carries some value on our sister continent, for which we are grateful."
Founded in 1822 by Bernardino Rivadavia, a former government minister, the academy claims the designation of being the oldest organization of its type in North and South America. Its limited membership, all professionals in medical disciplines, are selected according to their accomplishments and values as demonstrated in their bodies of work. Honorary members, who reside outside of the country, also have developed professional relationships with other medical institutions around the world, consulted with medical authorities, and called on their colleagues to lecture at scientific meetings.
The membership was recently bestowed on the two physicians for their "extraordinary and outstanding aptitude."
Snyderman, the chief architect of the Duke University Health System, has led the School of Medicine, the medical center and its expansion since 1989. He plays a prominent role in the leadership of such key national organizations as the Institute of Medicine and the Association of American Medical Colleges.

Harley-Davidson Street 750 Price Cut By Rs. 65,000/-
Considering getting yourself a Harley-Davidson Street 750? Now is your time!
Considering getting yourself a Harley-Davidson Street 750? Now is your time!
Home » Bike News » Harley-Davidson Street » Harley-Davidson Street 750 Price Cut By Rs. 65,000/-
Harley-Davidson has slashed the prices of the Street 750 by a massive Rs. 65,000/-. This makes the most affordable Harley-Davidson even cheaper.
The Harley-Davidson Street 750 was first introduced 6 years ago, in 2014. While it did well initially, its sales dropped to triple digits/year afterwards and declined further after the arrival of the RE 650 Twins.
The price-cut for the Street 750 is not a piece of fresh news, though. The little Harley has seen tougher times as it even got a price cut of Rs. 1 lakh, a few years ago. The price cuts seem like desperate attempts by Harley-Davidson to promote the declining sales of the Street 750.
The Harley-Davidson Street 750 boasts of a modern cruiser styling with a round headlamp accompanied by a small cowl, teardrop-shaped fuel tank, black alloy wheels and blacked-out treatment on all body panels. Even the 2-in-1 exhaust gets an all-black finish from start to finish, which enhances the overall look.
Powering the Street 750 is a BS6 compliant 749 cc, V-Twin, liquid-cooled engine which churns out about 60 BHP and 59 Nm of torque, and comes mated to a six-speed gearbox.
After the Rs. 65,000/- price cut, the Harley Davidson Street 750 now costs Rs. 4.69 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi) for the Vivid Black colour. For any other colour option, you will have to pay a premium of Rs. 12,000/-. Those colour options retail at Rs. 4.81 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi).
While the Street 750 is not the best buy for this price, people looking to upgrade to a Harley-Davidson surely have a deal on their hands. After all, it is still a comfortable motorcycle which does everything from city commuting to week-long mountain trips. Plus, you get the rumbling Harley-Davidson exhaust note as a bonus.

(ReliableNews.org) – Drones are a controversial military tool because of the risk assessment that comes with them every time a member of the military uses one. Activists have screeched about collateral damage for years. Nonetheless, the military continues to use them and wants even more.
On March 7, Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall revealed the military branch wants to purchase 1,000 collaborative combat aircraft (CCA) and 200 Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighters, Breaking Defense reported. The NGAD is described as a family of systems that includes networking, new weapons, and other tools with a new, highly-advanced stealth fighter. The Air Force's vision is to have stealth fighters and drones that fight and fly alongside one another.
Air Force plans to buy 200 next-gen fighters and 1,000 drone wingmen that could control targeting and weapons systems of crewed aircraft.
– By Michael Marrow #defense https://t.co/qygYDSHAOZ https://t.co/ok22aa2oBT— Hype (@HypeAviation) March 7, 2023
Kendall explained to the Air and Space Force Association's Air Warfare Symposium that one of the NGAD fighters would cost "multiples" of the F-35 jets. He was very frank, saying, "It's a really expensive airplane." Purchasing the CCAs is supposed to help make it more affordable for the Air Force as the drones are only going to cost a fraction of what F-35s cost right now.
The NGAD program is highly classified, and the Air Force has said very little about it in the past. It's not even clear what capabilities the fighter jets will have when built.
In 2022, Kendall confirmed the service was looking for a company to build the jet, but revealed nothing more. He didn't even mention which company had submitted proposals to build the aircraft. In 2020, a full-scale NGAD jet made a flight, but nothing is known about its maker. Kendall did say that there is the possibility that more than two drones could accompany each jet in the future. But, for now, the American people remain largely in the dark about the program, which is still in the preliminary phase.

Social Confoes 104 – Entrepreneurship is Gambling
Welcome to this episode of Social Confoes, where we explore the intersection of society, culture, and economics. In this episode, hosts Diego and Jean-luc discuss the role of entrepreneurship and wealth creation in today's world. They delve into the pressures of the "rat race," the importance of optionality, and the potential pitfalls of pursuing wealth. Join us as we explore the nuances of entrepreneurship and the challenges of navigating uncertainty in pursuit of financial success.
Here is an overview of some takeaways from the conversation between Diego and Jean-luc:
- They discuss their experiences celebrating the holiday of Holy and the importance of appreciating the freedoms and opportunities that exist in their country.
- Suriname is an underrated place because of the freedom and familial safety net it offers.
- The pressure of the "rat race" in Suriname is less than in other places, allowing for more freedom to try new things.
- As people build wealth, they become their own worst enemy, as they fear losing it and spend more money to protect it.
"The greatest insurance against uncertainty is optionality. "
"Too much wealth brings about misfortune. Increasing your wealth makes you fear losing it. You spend money to assuage your fears and then have to earn more."
Diego's quote from the Social Confoes podcast is a reminder that wealth can come with its own set of challenges and fears. As people strive for financial success and try to build generational wealth, they may also find themselves trapped in a never-ending cycle of earning more to protect what they have. This can lead to a constant fear of losing it all and a pressure to continue working long after one might have hoped to retire or enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Diego's perspective is especially relevant given the recent economic turbulence caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Many people have lost jobs, businesses have closed, and the future remains uncertain. It's important for individuals and societies to consider what truly matters most and to find a balance between financial security and other aspects of life.
This serves as a thoughtful reminder to reflect on our priorities and to question whether the pursuit of wealth is worth the potential costs.

AMD Radeon RX 580 vs EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra
The AMD Radeon RX 580 is a great graphics card for 1080p gaming, capable of running all the games on the market. It offers good performance at a reasonable price point and is able to handle VR workloads. However, some users may experience driver timeouts or black screens while playing certain games, and there have been reports of game freezes when launching Dota 2 using OpenGL. Additionally, it may not be able to keep up with more demanding games at higher resolutions.
The EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra is a powerful graphics card that offers excellent performance for 1440p gaming. It is expensive, but it is worth the investment for those looking for a high-end card. The card runs hot and loud, so it may be necessary to invest in a hybrid cooler to keep temperatures down. However, with its impressive ray tracing capabilities and high frame rates, this card is an ideal choice for gamers who want the best of the best.
