U.S. indicts Iranian hackers responsible for deploying "SamSam" ransomware
WASHINGTON - The United States οn Wednesday indicted two Iranians fοr launching a majοr ransomware cyber attack knοwn as "SamSam" and sanctiοned two others fοr helping exchange the ransom payments frοm Bitcοin digital currency into rials.
The 34-mοnth lοng hacking scheme wreaked havoc οn hospitals, schools, cοmpanies and gοvernment agencies, including the cities of Atlanta, Geοrgia, and Newark, New Jersey, causing over $30 milliοn in losses to victims and allowing the alleged hackers to cοllect over $6 milliοn in ransom payments.
The deployment of the SamSam ransomware represented some of the mοst high-prοfile cyber attacks that have occurred οn U.S. soil, including οne in 2016 that fοrced Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital in Los Angeles to turn away patients and οne last year that shut down Atlanta cοurts and much of its city gοvernment.
The six-cοunt indictment, unsealed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court fοr the District of New Jersey, charges Iran-based Faramarz Shahi Savandi, 34, and Mohammad Mehdi Shah Mansouri, 27 with οne cοunt of cοnspiracy to cοmmit wire fraud, οne cοunt of cοnspiracy to cοmmit fraud related to cοmputers, and other cοunts accusing them of intentiοnally damaging prοtected cοmputers and illegally transmitting demands related to prοtected cοmputers.
The Treasury Department, meanwhile, said it had sanctiοned Ali Khοrashadizadeh and Mohammad Ghοrbaniyan fοr exchanging digital ransomware payments into rials.
Neither Khοrashadizadeh nοr Ghοrbaniyan were named in the indictment, though the indictment appeared to reference their activities.
"The allegatiοns in the indictment unsealed today—the first of its kind—outline an Iran-based internatiοnal cοmputer hacking and extοrtiοn scheme that engaged in 21st-century digital blackmail," said Assistant Attοrney General Brian Benczkowski, in annοuncing the criminal charges οn Wednesday.
Reuters cοuld nοt immediately locate the fοur Iranians named by the U.S. gοvernment, and it will likely be difficult to hold them accοuntable in a federal cοurt because the United States does nοt have an extraditiοn treaty with Iran.
However, Deputy Attοrney General Rod Rosenstein told repοrters at a press cοnference that he remains cοnfident they might οne day be brοught to justice.
"These defendants are nοw fugitives frοm American justice," Rosenstein said. "American justice has a lοng arm and we will wait and eventually, we are cοnfident that we will take these perpetratοrs into custody."
Accοrding to the Treasury, the SamSam ransomware scheme targeted mοre than 200 victims.
In additiοn to Atlanta and Newark, other victims cited by the Justice Department included healthcare cοmpanies such as Labοratοry Cοrpοratiοn of American Holdings, the Colοrado Department of Transpοrtatiοn, Medstar Health, the pοrt of San Diegο and the Nebraska Orthopedic Hospital.

Tibany[4] is an okama from Momoiro Island. He and the other okamas chased after Sanji and attempted to convert him into an okama.[1] In the anime, he was called Elizabeth (エリザベス Erizabesu?).
Tibany is a very large middle aged man with long blond hair ending in curls who has some stubble on his chin and hairy legs. He has effeminate-looking cyan colored eyes and a very noticeable unibrow and wears a dark red shade of lipstick and a frilly pink blouse with light yellow flower patterns. He also has extremely prominent cheekbones and he can always be seen blushing.[1]
In Sanji's hallucination he resembles a beautiful well-endowed young lady of regular height, with his blond hair being the only thing that remains unchanged.
When the okamas dropped Sanji off at Sabaody Archipelago, Tibany was wearing a light-colored dress with dark-colored polka dots.[5]
As an okama, Tibany is incredibly effeminate and enjoys dressing up like a young woman. Like the other okama on the island, he has a desire to convert others into okama as seen with his interactions with Sanji. He is also quite playful, especially when trying to convert Sanji and believed chasing him around was fun. However his actions may come off as somewhat intimidating due to his forceful behavior, especially when he tried to catch Sanji with a net in order to make him wear a dress.[1]
Abilities and PowersEdit
Tibany is strong enough to capture Sanji and force him to dress as an okama.[1][6] He and his fellow okama also stopped and were seen as threats by the Marines at Sabaody.[5]
To capture his opponents, Tibany uses a large net.[1]
Summit War SagaEdit
Straw Hat Separation Serial: Kamabakka KingdomEdit
After Sanji was separated from the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates by Bartholomew Kuma, he landed in the Kamabakka Kingdom on Momoiro Island which was completely inhabited by okamas. Soon after, Tibany and a group of okamas attempted to convert Sanji into one of them[1] and eventually succeeded after pursuing Sanji for a lengthy amount of time.[6] He returned to normal by the time Emporio Ivankov returned to the kingdom.[7]
Fish-Man Island SagaEdit
Return to Sabaody ArcEdit
When Sanji returned to Sabaody Archipelago two years later to reunite with the Straw Hats, Tibany and the other okamas were there to see him off and promised that they would never forget him despite Sanji's utter dislike for them. They later aided the Straw Hats by holding back (more like tormenting) a group of Marines. Tibany then winked while the Straw Hats were setting sail. Sanji somehow sensed this and screamed briefly.[5]
Yonko SagaEdit
From the Decks of the World: The 500,000,000 Man ArcEdit
He and the other okamas prepared Kamabakka Kingdom for an event.[8]
The following events are Non-Canon and therefore not considered part of the Canon story.
One Piece: StampedeEdit
Tibany briefly appears as a contestant in the "Miss Pirate" beauty contest of the Pirates Festival only to lose to Nami, much to his dismay.[9]
Concludes non-canon section.
Anime and Manga DifferencesEdit
In the anime the story was changed with Tibany being the one who found and took care of Sanji while he was passed out, but when he regained consciousness he hallucinated that Tibany was a young beautiful woman and chased after him. This soon led Sanji to Tibany's frilly home where Tibany attempted to convert Sanji into an okama after a little miscommunication.[10] After pursuing Sanji for a lengthy amount of time, Tibany and the other okamas reported his presence to the substitute queen of Momoiro Island, Caroline with Tibany informing him that Sanji was no threat. The okamas then lure Sanji into the castle where Sanji challenged Caroline for a boat off the island. Tibany is later seen witnessing the match between Caroline and Sanji where Sanji is temporarily converted into an okama.[11]

text: Don't be a hater! bluewrensandbutterflies Uncategorized September 27, 2018 1 Minute Photo by Anthony on Pexels.com Today when I was doing a guided mediation (Day 22, Shedding Weight with Oprah and Deepak) my mind was wandering as usual. I started thinking about somebody that I feel conflict with. It took about 30 seconds to realised that I wasn't saying the mantra that Deepak has set for the mediation. I was thinking about somebody that really drives me crazy. Somebody I find difficult to be around. So I thought about the words my husband uses all the time if somebody says something negative, he says "don't be a hater". His idea comes from the Taylor Swift song "Shake it off" and particularly the part where she says "And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate", so I decided to use these words on myself. I told myself not to be a hater, this person is trying to do their best, they are trying to do a good job, they are using all the knowledge and experiences they have of the world around them to exist and they are doing the best they can. That person is here to teach me something about myself and they are going to continue to drive me crazy until I learn the lesson they have been sent here to teach me. I started thinking of three positive things about this person. It only took seconds for my energy to shift, I felt more calm, more relaxed and more love in my Being. It was amazing. I am going to use this technique to try and change my experiences and create a better future for myself. I aim to try and catch myself when thinking negative thoughts today and switch it around and not be a hater. I am not going to be a hater anymore.

Props to my peeps in the forums! I know y'all are with me in longing for CBS to start showing new episodes, so the recaps aren't as confusing....
Maxine "Meddlin,' Peddlin,' Never Settlin'" Gray hustles up the sidewalk near an abandoned garage. Clearly, the appeal of the never-ending river of booze which flows through the Gray household has worn thin and now her family is sending her out to score some smack to have along with dinner. Or she's meeting a police officer there. Whatever. She chides the cop on his not-at-all stereotypical meal of coffee and a donut. If Maxine disapproves of that on nutritional grounds, I wonder what she'd think of the meal I currently have in front of me -- a bottle of Orange Hooch and a bowl of peanut brittle. I might go into sugar shock, but I need both the sugar and the booze to get through this, kids. I'm doing it for you, damn it. The cop drags a teenaged boy in handcuffs out of the back of the squad car and presents him to Maxine. The kid tells Maxine that his name is "Manuel. Manual Labor." Oy, kids today! I bet the writers howled over that one!
Al the Cop (for that is his name) takes Maxine and Manual into the abandoned building, which apparently wasn't so abandoned a few minutes ago. Manual had been squatting in a back room, which is full of expensive, nifty-looking and possibly stolen computer equipment. Maxine looks around, and suggests they call NASA "to tell them they're missing something." Manual Labor ignores her and stares at a photograph of a pretty young woman posted on the wall. Gee, I wonder if she means something to him?
Halls of Justice. Amy complains to Bruce about how mean Lauren's teacher, Mrs. Schleewee, is. I don't know about you, but I think "Mrs. Schleewee" is one hell of a name. Bruce and Amy exchange your basic Flirtatious Banter, as per usual, but Bruce brings the house down by handing Amy a notice from the appellate court. One of her rulings is being appealed. Amy looks alternately appalled, shocked, and offended. The horror!
Credits. Dingly, dangly theme song. More peanut brittle.
Amy and Bruce take up right where we left off, waltzing into the courtroom. Bruce is trying to reassure Amy that getting appealed is no big deal, that it happens to judges all the time. Amy makes some disparaging remarks about the lawyer behind the appeal, Stu Collins. Bruce basically tells her to chill. She seems to come to her senses, and tells him he's "absolutely right." Bruce smiles and nods, like, no kidding, sweetheart. Amy gets up to go -- why, I don't know, because they just got there -- but then turns and asks who the judge is on the appeal. It's "Action Jackson, a judicial conservative." Amy recommences the wigging, and demands to know what the basis of the appeal is. Bruce, as patient and calm as a saint, tells her that he can get a copy of Stu Collins's brief, but that he "doesn't recommend it." Amy promises that she will not obsess. Bruce tells her to "get out!" and pushes her, à la Elaine Benes. Okay, he just tells her to get out. But Amy interpreted it the same way, because she swears, again, that she will not obsess. Bruce smiles benevolently, and explains that he actually, literally, needs her to leave, so she can enter "with due pomp and circumstance." Amy gives him the eye and tells him that it's "her courtroom." Bruce raises one eyebrow. "Of course it is," he says, "when I say it is," and smiles rakishly as Amy tussles with Donna in awkward attempt to exit the room. Bruce rules.

A well-known web browser developed by Google hits the worldwide market share by total 61%. This success is achieved in the ten-year life span of Google chrome as launched in September 2008 for Microsoft Windows.
The first version is released for Microsoft Windows and later on released for other operating systems like Mac, Linux, IOS, and also for Android operating systems.
Chrome is now using worldwide and having too many users, and these users are satisfied also with the use of Google Chrome. But sometimes its start crashing, and then the users got confused that there is a problem in my browser, yes, of course. They might be right but there are other problems which interfere with chrome browser and it starts crashing, I will give the best opinions but for now, you have to look about the feature and how chrome works basically, then it can bring you a better understanding.
How Google Chrome Works? Browsing on Google Chrome:
The users just see the webpages shown on their screens and get their information, but there is a team on the back who operates all the browser capability and compatibility.
Initially, chrome works on web kits which show the users multiple web pages. These are bringing together through Google 25 different codes libraries and also get help from several other parties. For browsing web pages these are much enough operations, but also the Google wants to run Gmail accounts through Chrome browser, then it can sometimes make users in trouble.
To handle these issues they got help from Javascript; a team in Denmark handles all the operations and makes chrome faster for Gmail, and also for several other purposes.
Chrome when success in the overall market started; then they launched a Chrome Beta for Android phones in February 2017; it is usually operational in android version 4.0, and onward versions, while starting 4.1 versions chrome is pre-installed in all devices of android.
Google Chrome Interface
When you open a chrome browser it shows you simple Google search browser by default and URL search bar on top of the browser. On the right side of the browser, there are tabs that include different options, like New Tab, History, Settings, etc. all your browsing history and other information are syncs through your Gmail account logged on. You can access your history and other information by logging in to another device with the same user id.
Google Chrome Security
Chrome is assuring their user's security by providing updates and virus threats. They usually blacklisted the two main issues; Malware and Phishing, Malware; you may call it virus threat to your system and phishing; usually known as a hacking tool to get someone user id and password. Chrome warns their users when they are going to enter into the unknown websites and also warns you that it harm your system.
Why Does Google Chrome Keep Crashing?
Google Chrome keeps crashing due to several issues it may happen eventually or regularly; I will bring it into two categories for your better understanding and resolve your issues with no trouble. These can be categorized in minor and major issues.
Minor Issues
These are small issues which happen eventually and can be solved easily. These minor issues include;
This issue can occur eventually due to your slow internet speed, or bad quality internet.
This issue can be faced due to running VPN on your system.
The address you enter in the URL may do not exist.
Snap issues
These are basic crashes due to the plugins.
When you try to reach website it may be interrupted, so try reloading page.
These are the minor issues you may face eventually due to the shown problems; you can handle these by reloading webpage. Reloading webpage shortcut is CTRL+R and opening the fresh webpage you may use CTRL+SHIFT+R keys.
Major Crashing Issues Of Googe Chrome
Major chrome crashing issues might bring your system in trouble and also confuse you, but don't worry it can be solved by installing software or you have to access to the chrome hidden setting pages. You can access the hidden pages by typing (chrome: //crashes) in the search bar of your browser. These crashes can occur due to the following issues;
Malware Scan
As malware is in the blacklist of chrome security, that interfere in browsing and may cause crashing chrome regularly. Simply you may call it virus threat to your system. This issue can be resolved by installing antivirus software to run on your system and if you don't want to install antivirus software, then there is an option available in your system known as Microsoft security essentials, by scanning your system can be cleaned from malware and bring you back in normal operations.
Conflicting Software
Sometimes you install different software which is harmful to your system, and also interfere in chrome browsing and start crashing it. This may include network related software, you can detect this software by typing (chrome: //conflicts) command in the search bar of chrome browser. When you type this command and enter it will give you all the relevant information from that you can find unnecessary software and then disable or uninstall that to get rid of crashing.
Google SRT (Software Removal Tool)
These are recently launched software by Google to reset your chrome browser in normal operations, and remove ambiguities. You have to download Google Software Removal and install it, after opening it will give an option to reset your browser back in normal operations.
Flash Crashes
Adding unknown flash players to your chrome browser may crash it regularly, you have to remove those unknown flash player from the extension and adding Google chrome default extension and can fix the problem.
File System Ambiguity
This option is recommended by Google to their users to avoid crashes. You can access to it by opening a command prompt and typing SFC.EXE/SCAN NOW. It will scan your system and find out the issue and resolved it.
Corrupted Profile
Your profile may be corrupted and then you can open a new profile in chrome browser to avoid crashing chrome. You can also sync your previous files to your new account, and if there is any problem with your old account then Google will warn you to don't copy files.
After spending three days on research to find out a problem that why does Google chrome keep crashing in a laptop, so I conclude that there are two types of problems; minor and major issues.
I already have listed all the minor and major issues above, now if you are facing occasional crash down, then it may because of minor issues, so you can fix it with two, three-step procedure. These solutions are discussed in the above list.
If you are facing regular chrome crash then you have look at your system that it may be a malware threat or unknown files installed. Follow the procedure and get rid of chrome crashing.

When you hear a recommendation to have air conditioning maintenance done, we understand it can be an easy suggestion to dismiss. Unless something is clearly wrong with your air conditioner—for instance if you're not getting any cooling on one of the hottest days of the year—you'd likely put off calling in a pro, particularly if things worked "just fine" last season. And yet, similar to maintenance for your vehicle, routine air conditioning and heating maintenance is so important for repair prevention.
As specialists in the HVAC industry, we feel it's our responsibility to tell you why routine maintenance is so vital to your air conditioner. For more information, reach out to our team and schedule your HVAC maintenance with us ASAP.
More About Maintenance
Air conditioning maintenance is a service offered by most air conditioning contractors, though the level of service may vary. Generally speaking, your technician will have a checklist of things to inspect, test, clean, and adjust on your air conditioner (and heating equipment, if it's in the winter). To perform this service requires special equipment and a certain expertise—from a trained professional.
During your air conditioner tune-up, a technician may make some adjustment that will help improve the performance of your system. It's also possible that there are failing components or major issues within the system, and you may have to schedule repair service afterward to repair or replace a component, since maintenance service is meant to be prompt.
What Maintenance Does for Your Comfort and Safety
A big reason to schedule preventive maintenance each year is for your home comfort. Over the years, climate control equipment becomes less and less effective, as the components wear down—like they do in a car or any other system you use on a pretty regular basis.
Maintenance is typically best performed in the spring, before you need your air conditioner the most. This gives you plenty of time to schedule repairs at your own convenience. By tuning up the components, your system runs better, which means your home will be cooled faster and potentially even more accurately.
By managing repair needs right away, rather than waiting for your system to break down entirely, you won't have to worry so much about a potential breakdown in the middle of severe weather. More importantly, maintenance in general helps in the prevention of potential safety issues, such as a refrigerant leak—refrigerant is the chemical that makes the cooling process possible. But coming into contact with this liquid without the right protection can be harmful.
What Maintenance Does for Your Wallet
Many homeowners decide to schedule maintenance when they find out how much money it can save them. The maintenance service itself will cost you, yes. However, you can offset this investment with the benefits you get from routine maintenance, like:
- Reducing monthly bills with an air conditioner that retains 95% of its efficiency throughout its lifespan.
- Extending the lifespan of your cooling equipment.
- Saving on emergency repairs, since you can schedule repairs on your own time, when you know about a problem early enough.
At Smart Choice Heating and Air, we are "dedicated to great service, clean air & happy homes." Contact us today for your AC maintenance in Anaheim, CA.

A DETAILED delivery plan for a new school at the Holy Angels day care centre in Carlow, has been demanded by Senator Jennifer Murnane O'Connor.
The senator was speaking during a commencement debate in Seanad Éireann and questioned why the new school building, which has been on the priority list for the past five years, still has not been delivered. She also questioned the minister's commitment to staffing the centre.
"The HSE has made land available at Kelvin Grove for the new centre but no delivery plan has been provided. As I understand, the site at Kelvin Grove, on the vacant property register, has also been promised as a site for a women's refuge.
Holy Angels cannot wait any longer as the current conditions in the school are simply not good enough
"While both are very noble causes it must be acknowledged that the children, their families, the staff and the management in Holy Angels cannot wait any longer as the current conditions in the school are simply not good enough.
"There are 31 children attending the centre with a range of special needs. The staff are second to none but there is a huge programme to cater for and to provide the services required for these children with special needs they need the proper resources."
Senator Murnane O'Connor said the new centre had requested €62,000 for the year 2020 to retain its staff members in order that they could continue with what they were doing.
not good enough that the centre must continually fight for such a small amount of money
"This is a miniscule sum when you consider the black hole budget of the Department of Health and it is what's necessary for the centre to retain its staff members. It's not good enough that the centre must continually fight for such a small amount of money," she said.
"We're talking about livelihoods here and the five staff who are on temporary contracts need to know if they are being retained or will need to seek other employment."
In other news, the latest report from the County Council has shown that 18 children presented as homeless in Carlow last month. There were 31 adults homeless, with 19 of them in emergency accommodation.There were 14 children in emergency accommodation.

Australian drag queen Courtney Act throws a Christmas party in town this weekend
RuPaul's Drag Race alum Courtney Act (aka Shane Jenek) will be serving up a dystopian Christmas cabaret this Sunday when she joins Flip Phone for a night of commiserating over this horrible year. "It'll be a good hour or so of group therapy with fun and costumes and fabulous songs," says Act.
Act first started putting her drag act together in Sydney, Australia, around the year 2000. "My drag sister Vanity and I were having lunch," Act recalls. "I said I wanted to be called Ginger Le'Bon, because I thought it sounded like a shag-cut red-headed smoky-voiced nightclub singer that I envisioned I would be," she says. Vanity thought Act should pick a cuter name, like Courtney.
If you say "Courtney" in an Australian accent, it sounds kind of like "caught in the." Act had an a-ha moment, and decided on "Courtney Act," a play on "caught in the act."
Act has been singing since she was five years old, but when she first started performing, she would lip synch her songs. "I thought that's what drag queens did," Act says. "Somebody was like, 'But can't you sing?' And I was like, yeah, but drag queens don't sing."
When Act auditioned for Australia Idol in 2003, she auditioned as a boy, and got cut. "I came back the next day as a girl, and made it through," she says. "I pretty much sang live from then on, and haven't really lip synched since."
Act's career exploded after appearing on the sixth season of RuPaul's Drag Race. Being on the show was really fun, especially because she was with "all these other people who were experts in the same field I was an expert in different ways," she says. Since then, "I don't think I've had more than a week off in the last four years."
For the show this weekend, Act will be singing some holiday tunes and non-denominational pop songs. One of her favorites is an Australian carol called "The Six White Boomers." "It's about how when Santa gets to Australia, because it's so hot, he trades in his red velvet Santa suit for something more weather appropriate, and gets rid of his reindeers for six white kangaroos which we call boomers," Act says. " It's a really fun upbeat Christmas song."

June 30th 2019
As part of buying the property near Eymet (see a previous post) I had to have some land boundaries measured and legally defined (like a land-registry drawing in Britain).
In order to stay close to the property we found a really nice free Aire de Camping Car in Lauzun.
Lauzun is a cute medieval town, tiny actually with one of everything you need. 1 bar, 1 bank, 1 restaurant, 1 convenience shop …etc. Everything is along the "High Street".
It could be our local village soon, and I'd be very happy with that.
The land survey went well. Should the house purchase complete I will now have a clearly-defined boundary, and right-of-way to my own small woodland (I know, my own woodland!!!).
It's exciting time and we really want to start putting down some roots in this house.
However, if something does go wrong with this Plan A then we always have our original Plan A, to continue on our travelling adventures.
It's a real 1st-World problem, and a total luxury, to have the choice of TWO plan As. I'm well aware of how lucky we are.
Keep tuning in to see which plan A we end up with.

• On January 15, 2016, Kenya's military forces suffered their worst attack in Somalia during an ambush on its camp in El–Adde
• Despite an inquiry by the KDF and a parliamentary investigation, there is not yet a full public account of the battle and the lessons that should be drawn from it.
Today marks exactly four years since Al Shabaab militants staged the most brutal and brazen attack yet on Kenyan troops when they staged an assault at the KDF base in El Adde, in the Gedo region near the Kenyan border.
It remains possibly, the deadliest blitz on the Africa Mission in Somalia (Amisom), surpassing the death toll of the Garissa University attack where 147 people were killed.
The El Adde attack was claimed by Saleh An-Nabhani Battalion, an al Shabaab faction named after Mombasa-born Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, who was killed during the United States Navy SEALs' raid in 2009.
The group is said to comprise of specialists in suicide bombings and bush ambush.
As Kenya came to terms with the massacre, government officials including commander-in-chief President Uhuru Kenyatta, Chief of Defence Forces General Samson Mwathethe and the then Defence CS Rachael Omamo promised a thorough investigation and a "painful lesson" to the militants.
On January 15, 2016, the terrorists ran over the KDF military camp and butchered KDF soldiers working under the Amisom command in one of the country's darkest battleground losses.
However, the precise extent of that defeat and many of the details have still not been made public.
Despite an inquiry by the KDF and a parliamentary investigation, there is not yet a full public account of the battle and the lessons that should be drawn from it.
There has also not been much of a public debate about what it means for the African Union Mission in Somalia.
The government has remained tight-lipped on numbers of casualties that arose from the deadly incursion.
The El Adde incursion was the third Amisom forward operating base overrun by al Shabaab in seven months.
Four years later, the Kenyan government has kept the country guessing on the casualties.
While the exact number of Kenyan troops killed has never been divulged, it was estimated to have been close to 200.
Somali President Hassan Shiekh Mohamud then put the figure at "180 or close to 200 soldiers" during an interview with a Somali-based TV station.
Mohamud's claim was angrily dismissed by KDF spokesperson Colonel David Obonyo, who termed it reckless.
"It was a head of state who personally talked about this. I don't know his source of information so it is only him who can clarify," he said.
Defence experts said the El Adde attack was conducted in a style increasingly being used by Middle East-linked Islamic State, aka Isis, aka Daesh, in its attacks.
For instance, Daesh fighters launched at least 27 vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices (VBIEDs) that destroyed Iraqi security forces' defensive perimeters and crumbled multi-storey buildings.
It is meant to perpetuate maximum casualties.
On the contrary, in the video, the pre-dawn ambush starts when a young man Abduqadir Ali aka Farhan, drives a vehicle laden with explosives into the camp and detonates it.
Military sources said the VBIEDs used in the attack were made from an armoured personnel carrier (APC), captured from Burundian peace-keepers in June the previous year and taken to the outskirts of El Adde from Wargadud, 40 kilometres north of the Kenyan base.
The base compound housed a Company-sized garrison of men belonging to both the 9th and 5th Kenya Rifles.
According to military sources, both Kenyan Rifle Battalions had been detached to the El-Adde base only two weeks beforehand.
The total size of the garrison that day has been generally put at around 200 Kenyan troops present.
According to CDF General Samson Mwathethe, and the then KDF spokesman, the explosion was three times more powerful in comparison to the 1998 United States embassy bombings in Nairobi.
He said the massive blast damaged the command and communications buildings, as well as an armoury and fuel depots of the base, killing dozens of soldiers.
Al Shabaab named the suicide bomber as AbduQadir Ali.
The suicide explosion was a precursor to an estimated 150 to 300 al Shabaab fighters assaulting the base with rocket-propelled grenades and assault weapons.
The attack caught Kenyan troops unprepared and asleep.
At approximately 7:30 a.m, the battle lasted for more than one hour of fierce fighting until Kenyan troops were routed from the base and fled into the dense bush pursued by Al Shabaab militants.
Sources said a neighbouring Somali National Army (SNA) base located 600 meters away from the Amisom base, was empty of troops, who allegedly left after they were pre-warned hours before the attack.
Mwathethe later said the attack involved "several" vehicle-borne explosive devices.
He explained that in the attack the militants used a lead vehicle as a decoy or a barrier-buster, with the intention that when stopped by security forces for inspection, a second one this time fitted with heavy explosives would come crashing into their target before detonating.
Tactical failures
CNN later reported that the ease with which the militants breached barriers at El Adde surprised many security analysts especially since the same style of assault had been seen before in bloody attacks on Amisom forces.
CNN said a diplomat based in the Somali capital, Mogadishu, had said the attack was a clear "tactical disaster" for the Kenyan troops.
"How can 200 al Shabaab militants walk across a field in broad daylight without the Kenyan troops noticing? Where were the KDF's machine guns?" he asked adding that that was contrary to everything they have been taught, and should be doing in a hostile environment
According to experts, al Shabaab tactics should thus have been predictable. Yet, problems to do with poor operational setup and procedures, and the decision to deploy such vulnerable forward operating bases in remote areas, garrisoned by so few troops, had persisted.
Al Shabaab claimed to have captured 12 Kenyan soldiers, including the commanding officer after the battle.
These soldiers according to Mwathethe, are being used by the militants as a human shield.
Though Obonyo rubbished reports that the country had lost over 180 of its soldiers a new death toll from available open-source information indicated that the deaths ranged from 141 to 185 Kenyan troops, including all officers killed in Action.
Around 40 survivors managed to escape and an unknown number are still unaccounted for.
Sources said DNA samples were taken from at least 143 bodies at the scene, most of which were burned beyond recognition.
Under the Amisom peacekeeping mission, Kenya has about 3,000 troops manning sector 2.
Global terrorism database compiled by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Response to Terrorism (better known as Start indicates between 2013 and 2017, Kenya has suffered 373 terror attacks, leaving 929 people dead, 1,149 injured and 666 taken hostage.
Despite the loss, President Uhuru Kenyatta has maintained that KDF soldiers will remain in Somalia until the militants are wiped out.

Chris Claremont's X-Men
This extended version of the documentary provides an expanded story with more background on Claremont and his two original collaborators, Ann Nocenti and Louise Simonson, revealing secrets into what made them a great team. Viewers will also gain insight into Claremont's childhood and see what helped make the connection between him and the series outsider heroes. There is also a look at the franchises' films and TV shows, including Claremont's key role in launching X-Men and his thoughts on seeing his creations come to life, from the first X-Men film to the recent "Legions" TV series and the upcoming NEW MUTANTS film.
With over 40 minutes of new footage, the VOD also contains never-seen-before interviews with Rob Liefled (Deadpool creator), Marc Silvestri (artist) and hard-core fans who share the impact both Claremont and the comics have made on them.
The feature documentary is directed, produced, and edited by Patrick Meaney. Jordan Rennert produces and is the Director of Photography. CHRIS CLAREMONT'S X-MEN is distributed by XLrator Media.
Documenting the 17 year run by writer Chris Claremont on X-Men and the universe that spawned from his work.
Chris Claremont's X-Men is my kind of documentary. Why wouldn't it be because this is about a favorite writer of mine and that is Chris Claremont. I know people say they love the X-Men but my favorite team was the international team that revived the book to the fame that made it the number one book at Marvel. The documentary also has so many of the creators I loved as well Len Wein, Louise Simonson, Peter Sanderson, etc. If you were a fan of the Marvel mutant titles around this time I have to tell you it's not just about Chris's work but what sprung from that work and how the X-Men took over in a big way. Remember this series began other books like New Mutants, X-Factor, Wolverine, X-Force, and Excaliber. The main this that is expressed in the documentary is showing the love he had for making these characters accessible and expand the reader base. There's a reason a lot of fans of this particular period of the X-Men. He made not powerful characters so much as he made relatable characters. From different countries, backgrounds, and cultures, he broke molds with powerful female characters and ones that broke molds. I have to warn you because when I say it covers all of his tenure I mean all of it and that includes the breakup between him and Marvel. Granted Chris has returned to pen more tales and I for one am thankful that I get more stories from him. But this documentary is a testament to a 17 year career of bringing us this family of characters that despite the world hating them they saved it time and time again. People say X-Men was a soap opera but that is what made it great. The characters had depth and even on a team book they were allowed to shine and step out in the spotlight. This is what we need to give this man credit for and this documentary is well deserved for a career to be honored. The film releases on VOD February 6th and you should give it a watch. Then, go read some of his work.

VEDIC ART is the method of consciousness development that uses intuitive painting as a technique.
The method is simple and ingenuous. It brings measurable results in personal growth.
The VA workshops are a great opportunity to experience "here and now" while creating.
Vedic Art is a painting method of heart and soul – an intuitive painting.
What is Vedic Art?
Vedic art does not teach anyone how to paint. No, Vedic Art is a way to remember how to paint. And not only to remember how art can be created. From the very beginning, when we hear about the Seventeen Vedic Principles of art, we begin to remember the whole story of life. From where we come and where we are going.
Vedic art is a navigation map.
Use the compass you have in your brain and find the way to the chamber of peace in your heart. Then when you dip your brush in light, space and bliss, eternity will be pictured. When you enter Your work of art – in Your self-referring dialogue – You will find the code of how life can be lived and how a work of art can open doors in heaven and on earth.

Maternal Deaths | The Ambassador of Denmark, Ms Tove Degnbol, has expressed her frustration at the high maternal and child mortality recorded in the country in spite of the investments made over the years.
"I do not want to hide the fact that we have sometimes been very frustrated when we had to struggle to have our funds channeled out to the regional and district level to be spent on essential equipment for the health staff.
It has been unbearable to see the rate of maternal mortality increasing in areas where we and other development partners had targeted our support,'' she said.
Though maternal health care has improved over the past 20 years, the pace has been slow and extra effort is required for Ghana to achieve the MDG 5 target of reducing maternal mortality rate by three quarters by 2015.
Institutional maternal mortality rate has reduced from 216 per 100,000 live births in 1990 to 164 per 100,000 live births in 2010 with a distance of 110 to target of 54 per 100,000 in 2015.
Last year, 2016, 955 maternal deaths were recorded, with Greater Accra Region topping the list with 197
Ms Degnbol was speaking at the launch of a "Safe Delivery App," which is a technology learning application tool designed to empower skilled birth attendants to provide safer delivery services.
The new application, which can easily be downloaded free of charge from Google Play and at App Store using smartphones and other technological gadgets, also works offline once copied, and can currently be found in the English and French languages.
Ms Degnbol said much more could be achieved to save lives when the bottlenecks in the financial management were addressed.
"During the more than two decades of our support, the maternal mortality rate was halved. This is a significant achievement, but the rate is still terribly high, and every single life of a woman that could have been spared is a tragedy for the family, for the newborn and motherless child, and for the society at large,'' she said.
She commended the UNFPA for partnering with the Maternity Foundation for the App, which would help reach the remotest areas.
Ms Anna Frellsen, the Chief Executive of the Maternity Foundation, said Ghana was a high priority country for the "Safe Delivery App," given the need for improvement in basic emergency obstetric and neonatal care, and the expressed interest of the implementing partners.

Life after loss
Kathleen Volk Miller lost her husband unexpectedly. Learn why she believes planning is so critical.
In a series of video interviews, Kathleen Volk Miller, Drexel University professor and writer, spoke with UBS about losing her husband, Don, unexpectedly, leaving her with three then-young children. She explores how overwhelming the financial burden was to shoulder on her own, why planning is critical and why women need to stop romanticizing money to ensure that they have secure financial footing.
Volk Miller also delves into how things may have changed for women, but not as much as we think—both in the classroom and in the real world.
"My husband and I had full financial transparency"
In part one of a six part series, Volk Miller discusses how the financial burden was overwhelming when she lost her husband, exploring why it is important for women to plan, even if you have full financial transparency with your partner.
"Money wasn't my top concern"
In part two, Volk Miller speaks about how money wasn't her top concern after losing her husband, leaving her widowed with three then-young children. She said that when he passed, neighbors, friends and family generously lended support in the forms of casseroles and cards to their favorite therapists, yet no one broached the topic of money.
"Stop romanticizing money"
In this video, Volk Miller says that she's "concerned for young women," in regard to their financial lives with partners, and implores them to "stop romanticizing money," by allowing their partners to take the lead when it comes to planning.
"Adulting is hard"
In the fourth video of our series, Volk Miller discusses how students of both genders could benefit from "adulting" classes, in order to learn how to be financially literate, saying that "financial planning should be right up there with English 101."
"She could be saving"
In the fifth video, Volk Miller discusses her two daughters to showcase how even those just starting out after college could be saving, but often just don't know it is a possibility on a starter salary.
"Things haven't changed that much"
In the final video of our six part series, Volk Miller explores why so much has changed for women, and yet so little has changed as well, as she speaks about her life in academia and why classroom dynamics may be telling about how younger women still largely defer to male students.

During scripture study the other night I said, "See my ring? It is made of gold, and gold is worth a lot of money. What were the Plates made out of that the angel Moroni gave to Joseph Smith?" "Gold!" said my Daughter. "That's right", I said, "And if they were made of Gold they would be worth a lot of money. Do you think people would want to get them? Yes, that is why the Angel Moroni told Joseph Smith to keep them safe."
My Daughter then said, "Jesus could tell him to put them up really, really high so no one could get them."
I said, "That is a good idea. You are very smart."
My Daughter then replied, "That is because I think so fast."

Instead of playing out the final two OTA practices this week, the Patriots played paintball on Monday.
Most of the players appeared to have fun, but the activity didn't end too well for linebacker Kyle Van Noy. On Tuesday, he was playing Fortnite with fellow teammate Dont'a Hightower when he shared his experience from the match.
"I got hit, I'm telling you. This paintball hit me in the mask, and the mask hit my tooth and my s- still hurts," Van Noy said.
Hightower teased him after, making him tell the audience who did it. Van Noy was reluctant at first before saying, "Bill got my ass."
Van Noy, who's playing in the Fortnite Pro-Am this Sunday with NickMercs, should be fine health-wise moving forward. And now he has a fun Bill Belichick story to share.

Even beginners have been able to establish successful businesses, and your turn may be coming up. These tips will show you the way to success.
Ask others to review your Internet marketing content. This is important because your perception and assessment of how your website appears may not be how it appears to others. Get feedback from peers, potential clients and even family members. Consider the advice they offer you, and use it to tweak your website.
Internet marketing can reach beyond the Internet. You can contact other bloggers or anyone else in your field and then hold a conference some place in person. This helps build a sense of community between the bloggers and your brand, helping the bloggers feel more enthusiastic about continuing to write about your brand.
Create a FAQ page for your website. This will help to answer your visitor's questions immediately, which can solve their problem and improve satisfaction. When the customer can see the benefits to your products in a clear and concise manner, there greater the chance they end up making a purchase.
When you take time and learn the fundamentals of web designing you will succeed. Use the Internet to find information about CSS and HTML. Spending just a half an hour every day learning about good web page design will give you a lot of ideas in as little as a few weeks.
Are you looking for a way to improve your internet marketing campaign? Reassure your visitors that they can have confidence when they come to your site. Add a link to your site's privacy policy on each page in a visible location above the fold. Your customers will feel more comfortable purchasing items from you if they know their sensitive information is safe. Let them know you will always protect their details from theft.
Keep learning about the things you can use online. The Internet is always changing, and doing so rapidly, so staying abreast of the latest innovations and high ranking websites can help you a lot in knowing the best routes to take to make your product readily available to the general public.
If you are going to use phrases use those such as "limited" and "special". People enjoy owning exclusive products, and seeing words like this in your ads can convince people to buy something right away.
Social websites such as MySpace or Facebook can help you reach customers in a social context and increase you business visibility. Be careful sending spam that people don't want since MySpace has been taking some people to court to stop it.
A friendly looking 500 error page can be very helpful. This page will popup whenever something on your site doesn't work. The page will say that there was a connection time out. There are much more effective means for informing users that you know there is an issue and are trying to fix it.
Mastering a specific niche will take time, but in the end it will pay off. This information will help you get started with reaching your goals.

When creating a submission campaign, you'll want to use as few form fields as possible while still collecting the information that is important to your business. Adding too many forms can appear to a user as too many steps to take or needing to give away too much information, and may increase the chance of them deciding not to fill out your campaign form.
Privy customers also have access to add our Hidden form fields to their onsite display campaigns. These forms allow you to gather information about your customers, without ever asking them to fill out the information. That's why it's a "hidden field", it's a field that's technically part of the form, but it's invisible to your visitors.
The information that a Hidden Field collects is called a "detected attribute". A Detected Attribute is information that is pulled from a visitor's browser settings or cookies. That information is then added to the hidden field on the form, and recorded in the contact profile in Privy as well as being passed over, when possible and configured through an automation rule, to another system.
IMPORTANT: If you are using an email service provider outside of Privy, it is important to map Privy's hidden fields to your database. That ensures that all the data you are collecting in your form and associating with your contacts appears in your database in the right spot. Make sure you map these fields before you launch your Privy campaign.

In looking back on the eight days I was out of my home certain pieces of bike periphery made life a good deal easier. Coping being what it is, the difference between needing one glass of wine and three at times came down to my ability to get out on the bike every few days. I was able to head out to West County to a trail system there and ride even when the air in Santa Rosa would have frightened most of Beijing. There are a few items that proved to be absolutely invaluable; most are items I've written about previously, but a one is new here.
I want to preface what are sure to be kind and positive words effusive with the happiness of rescue—rescued bikes, rescued food, rescued wine—by saying that the incredible usefulness of these items didn't emerge from a pre-planned disaster preparedness checklist. Nope. When I opened the garage it occurred to me that, "Oh, this will be handy." In a way, that's my best recommendation for something; its utility is so obvious as to transcend a prioritized list.
First up is the Sea Sucker Mini Bomber bike carrier. I reviewed this back in 2015 after using it to carry bikes from Los Angeles to Santa Rosa. The Sea Sucker is the bike carrier that uses suction cups to hold the bike to the roof of the car (or window, if you're so inclined). While suction cups are very Mission Impossible, I've yet to meet a cyclist who didn't get nervous upon seeing the suction cups being pumped to vacuum. Maybe the pucker factor is a sympathetic response. Think about that a second.
The Mini Bomber takes a few minutes to install, though not long in the grand scheme, less than 10 minutes for the whole thing. I've been driving around with it on my roof for two weeks at this point. Every three or four days I remember to check out the suction cups and make sure each is secure and they've been fine each time. I've carried bikes up there six times in the last two weeks. I actually like it better than your traditional trunk rack, in part because it's so easy to store, but also because I prefer how you mount the bike.
As much as I like the Sea Sucker rack, I have to admit I dispensed with the two rear suction cups to hold the rear wheels of bikes. I was in a hurry and didn't want to do two more suction cups. That's when I remembered that I had received two samples of Hiplok's Z-Lok reusable zip ties.
I knew that I could simply lock the rear wheels to my roof rack and that would be secure enough to drive to Point Reyes without using paved roads and the bikes would still be there. I'm not sure how long the Sea Sucker suction cups would have taken to secure, but the Z-Loks took seconds. It's hard to explain, but every time I got to my home time felt short. The Z-Lok is easily released with a small key that you slide into the two eyelets visible on the side. As a keep-honest-people-honest security device, I think it's pretty genius, but in this instance my need was simpler; I needed something to hold the wheel secure to my roof rack. They ended up getting used in other ways, like when I needed to carry four helmets in one hand. A pair go for $20 and I've got no reason to complain as there's nothing quite like them.
The weekend prior to the fires, I went (with a great many other fine people) up to Giro's Grinduro in Quincy. A group of Santa Rosa cyclists camped together at one end of the campground and we did a fair amount of cooking. I brought along a Dometic CFX 35W portable refrigerator. Dometic is to Yeti what a McLaren is to an Acura. This isn't just a cooler, it's an actual refrigerator, one that you can carry.
I got home, emptied the fridge only to realize Tuesday morning, after power in my place had been off for almost 36 hours that I could save a few things from my fridge and freezer. I ate through some of those items while displaced and then added more. It gave me a way to have refrigeration without taking over my host's fridge.
This thing is amazing in ways I'd never really considered were possible until I went looking for alternatives to Yeti. I don't see the point to spending $400 for something I still need to load with ice. For a bit more you can have an actual refrigerator. Consider that all of the space in a fridge is useful; you're not losing space to ice. This variation from Dometic has a USB port so you can charge your phone no matter where you are, plus wifi capability so you can use an app on your phone to control the temperature to the degree.
Being evacuated sucks, full stop. I'm still scratching my head that I spent a full week on the run from flames. But man, once my family and pets were out, I learned that food and bikes are two needs that really can paper over most others.

Thanks for the reminder about the Sea Sucker mounts. This is just what I need at this time. As my kids get bigger, my bike has gotten kicked out of the car/van too many times and has to stay at home. With this mount, I can always bring it along!
I'll be looking up your mini-fridge. Looks pretty cool to me. I like to dry-camp, even while using the pop-up.

In a surprise move, the Central Bank of Egypt announced its decision today to float the Egyptian Pound, reducing its value by nearly fifty percent against the U.S. dollar, from EGP 8.8 per 1 USD upon closing on November 2, 2016 to EGP 13 per 1 USD at opening on November 3, 2016. The currency will be allowed to fluctuate up to ten percent, and it currently sits at EGP 15.37 per 1 USD at the time of this publication.
IMF's Influence
This devaluation is one of many reforms suggested by the International Monetary Fund. Egypt is enacting reforms in order to secure a twelve-billion-dollar loan from the IMF, with the aim of strengthening the economy by fostering growth, improving export performance, creating jobs and bolstering the external position of Egypt. Egypt has one of the largest economies in the Middle East, second only to Saudi Arabia. The reforms are necessary to improve the health of the economy and allow it to react flexibly to external shocks in the future.
Currency Markets
Egypt has suffered from a shortage of hard currency since the 2011 uprising. The shortage has resulted in vast distortion in currency markets. The lack of hard currency has also made it difficult to attract foreign investments. Speaking to Reuters, IMF mission chief for Egypt Chris Jarvis said, "This will make more foreign exchange available. The flexible exchange rate regime, where the exchange rate is determined by market forces, will improve Egypt's external competitiveness, support exports and tourism and attract foreign investment,"The stock index and equity markets have reacted positively.
Impact on Expatriates
This move will affect expatriates. Egyptians and expats rely heavily on imports, and devaluation will increase their costs, although to what extent we are unsure. Volatility is to be expected for the coming weeks and months. AIRINC will be closely monitoring the effects of this currency devaluation on the Egyptian economy and will provide updates as we know more about the effects it will have on goods and services, automotive costs, and housing.
