As the US Supreme Court mulls over the case of Carpenter v. United States, which may have far-reaching consequences for police who track suspects without a warrant via their mobile phones, four engineers at Princeton University have revealed a brand-new method for identifying the location of a mobile phone user. The result of their ingenuity is as remarkable as it is alarming.

Using only data that can be legally collected by an app developer without the consent of a mobile phone's owner, researchers have been able to produce a privacy attack that can accurately pinpoint a user's location and trajectory without accessing the device's Global Position System - GPS. And while the ramifications of this ability falling into the wrong hands are distressing, the way in which they pulled it off is nothing short of genius.
To protect a mobile phone user's privacy, any app distributed through Google Play or the Apple App Store must explicitly ask for the user's permission before accessing location services. We know that even with that functionality turned off in a phone's settings, law enforcement is able to track mobile phones using either historical mobile-site data (identifying mobile towers you've been closest to) or mobile-site data collected using a class of law enforcement devices colloquially referred to as Stingrays. But as it turns out, neither mobile-site data nor locational services are needed to track a mobile phone owner with GPS-like precision.
In fact, all you really need is your phone's internal compass, an air pressure reading, a few free-to-download maps and a weather report.
Your mobile phone comes equipped with an amazing array of compact sensors that are more or less collecting information about your environment at all time. An accelerometer can tell how fast you're moving, a magnetometer can detect your orientation in relation to true north, and a barometer can measure the air pressure in your surrounding environment. You phone also freely offers up a slew of non-sensory data such as your device's IP address, timezone and network status (whether you're connected to Wi-Fi or a mobile network.)
All of this data can be accessed by any app you download without the type of permissions required to access your contact lists, photos or GPS. Combined with publicly available information, such as weather reports, airport specification databases and transport timetables, this data is enough to accurately pinpoint your location - regardless of whether you're walking or travelling by plane, train or automobile.
Previous attempts to track users with non-critical data have seen only marginal success. They have been hindered by either excessive power consumption - meaning the attacks are easy to detect - or they have required some advanced knowledge of either the mobile phone owner's initial location or potential routes. This newly discovered method requires none of these.
First, for this particular privacy attack to work, the mobile phone owner must install an app to gather the information. But in a true threat scenario, the app could be disguised as anything. The 2000 lines of code needed for the attack could be buried in something as innocuous seeming as a torch app (for some reason, people keep downloading these apps, even though they almost always contain malware). The app created by the researchers to test their attack was aptly named "PinMe".
To track a user, you first need to determine what kind of activity they're performing. It's easy enough to tell if a person is walking versus riding in a car, speed being the discriminant factor, but also, when you're walking you tend to move in one direction, while your phone is held in a variety of different positions. In a car, you make sudden stops (when you break) and specific types of turns - around 90 degrees - that can be detected using your phone's magnetometer. People who travel by plane will rapidly change time zones; the air pressure on a plane also changes erratically, which can be detected by a mobile phone's barometer. When you ride a train, you tend to accelerate in a direction that doesn't significantly change. In other words, determining your mode of travel is relatively simple.
The fact that your mobile phone offers up your time zone as well as the last IP address you were connected to really narrows things down - geolocating IP addresses is very easy to do and can at least reveal the last city you were in - but to determine your exact location, with GPS-like precision, a wealth of publicly-available data is needed. To estimate your elevation - that is, how far you are above sea level - PinMe gathers air pressure data provided freely by the Weather Channel and compares it to the reading on your mobile phone's barometer. Google Maps and open-source data offered by US Geological Survey Maps also provide comprehensive data regarding changes in elevation across the Earth's surface. And we're talking about minor differences in elevation from one street corner to the next.
Upon detecting a user's activity (flying, walking and so on) the PinMe app uses one of four algorithms to begin estimating a user's location, narrowing down the possibilities until its error rate drops to zero, according to the peer-reviewed research. Let's say the app decides you're travelling by car. It knows your elevation, it knows your timezone, and if you haven't left the city you're in since you last connected to Wi-Fi, you're pretty much borked.
With access to publicly available maps and weather reports, and a phone's barometer and magnetometer (which provides a heading), it's only a matter of turns. When PinMe detected one of the researchers driving in Philadelphia during a test-run, for example, the researcher only had to make 12 turns before the app knew exactly where they were in the city. With each turn, the number of possible locations of the vehicles dwindles. "[A]s the number of turns increases, PinMe collects more information about the user's environment, and as a result it is more likely to find a unique driving path on the map," the researchers wrote.
The researchers offer suggestions for a variety of countermeasures that could prevent this type of tracking. Of course, it wouldn't hurt if apps requested permission before accessing sensory information that we now know to be sensitive. One method is decreasing the sampling rate used by those sensors, when they aren't in use for activities such as jogging, below what's required for a malicious app to fly under the radar (high-sampling rates can trigger anti-malware detection). Another suggestion is to include a physical switch, allowing users to deactivate those sensors whenever they wish. Of course, Apple, which is nauseatingly obsessed with aesthetics, would likely never add such a feature.
The researchers further suggest the location technique used by PinMe may be better for autonomous cars than GPS, which can be spoofed, causing wrecks.
The real problem is that users are effectively helpless against this kind of attack. In fact, the kind of target the researcher's had in mind when they developed their technique was a user who is very cautious about which apps have permission to access sensitive data - the kind of person who switches off their GPS when travelling so details about their routine can't be scooped up by anyone who might be watching. Again, your phone doesn't consider air pressure readings, or which direction you're facing relative to the north pole, to be all that sensitive.
The Geolocation Privacy and Surveillance Act has been introduced in US Congress but has yet to advance out of a committee or receive much attention. It likely wouldn't do much to prevent apps such as PinMe from tracking people, anyway. It might be time for lawmakers in both the US and Australia to start paying attention before every app we download knows exactly where we - and they - are at all times, without our knowledge or consent.

Lawyers File Writ Of Habeas Corpus For National Press Club Award Winner Emilio Gutierrez
Mar 06, 2018, 02:22 ET
WASHINGTON, March 6, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Arguing that the U.S. government's detention of a National Press Club award-winning journalist violates the Constitution and international law, human rights attorneys on Tuesday are filing writs of habeas corpus for Emilio Gutiérrez Soto and his son, Oscar.
The move opens a second legal front in the effort to free the Mexican journalist, detained for nearly three months in an El Paso Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center despite never having violated U.S. law. Gutiérrez, whose reporting led to death threats in his home country, is seeking asylum in the United States. That case is before the Board of Immigration Appeals. Appeal briefs are due March 19.
Lawyers involved in the both cases will be available at a 2 p.m. press conference Tuesday in the Bloomberg Room of the National Press Club, 529 14th St. NW, Washington, D.C.
Authored by Professor Penny Venetis and her students at Rutgers University law school's international human rights clinic, the writ of habeas corpus invokes a right against unjustified detention that dates back to the Magna Carta. It calls the U.S. government "hypocritical" for condemning censorship and human rights violations abroad while threatening and detaining a reporter at home, and it cites President Donald Trump's persistent attacks on Mexicans and journalists as evidence that Gutiérrez and his son are victims of discrimination. Earlier this year, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, a conservative bench, found that the president's words could be used as evidence of discriminatory intent.
Among other evidence presented to bolster the Gutiérrezes' case:
- A report from a psychiatrist who examined Gutiérrez and diagnosed him with PTSD, brought on at least in part by the actions of U.S. officials, and,
- A letter from the U.S. State Department that describes the widespread threats facing journalists in Mexico – sometimes at the hands of government officials. An El Paso immigration judge earlier this year denied the Gutiérrezes asylum request by arguing that officials in their home country would protect them.
- An affidavit from Press Club Executive Director Bill McCarren describing how an ICE official warned Gutiérrez's advocates to "tone it down."
"We are enormously grateful to Professor Venetis and her students at the Rutgers University law school for taking on this case," said National Press Club President Andrea Edney. "Agents of the U.S. government are effectively trying to 'disappear' a man whose only 'crime' is journalism. We are hoping the venerable tool of habeas corpus will pry open Emilio's cell."
More than 20 other professional journalism organizations have joined the Press Club in calling on the U.S. government to release Gutiérrez and his son and grant them asylum. So have the editorial boards of The Washington Post, the Denver Post, and the Houston Chronicle. The National Press Club's #FreeEmilio petition at Change.org now has nearly 100,000 signatures.
"Emilio Gutiérrez has now been persecuted by two countries for his journalism," said Barbara Cochran, president of the National Press Club's non-profit Journalism Institute, which advances the club's press freedom advocacy. "Nonetheless, he — and we — still have faith in the rule of law. We are counting on our legal institutions to show that the United States is still a haven for free speech and legitimate asylum-seekers."
Gutiérrez fled Mexico 10 years ago after learning that his reporting on official corruption had landed him on a hit list. A single father, he brought with him his then-15-year-old son. They requested asylum as they came through a port of entry in New Mexico.
Initially detained — and separated — for several months, the father and son eventually were released while their case was adjudicated. They settled in Las Cruces, New Mexico and found work in the food service industry, eventually buying their own food truck. They waited until 2017 for their day in court, only to be denied asylum by a judge who questioned Gutiérrez's credentials as a journalist and argued that they could find protection in Mexico, the deadliest country in the Western hemisphere for journalists.
On Oct. 4, while his asylum case was pending, Gutiérrez spoke at the National Press Club's Fourth Estate Award dinner. At the invitation of the Club, he accepted the John Aubuchon Press Freedom Award on behalf of his country's press corps.
On Dec. 7, during a routine check-in, ICE officials suddenly announced they were deporting Gutiérrez and his son. Despite the pleas of their lawyer, Eduardo Beckett, the agents refused to wait for the Board of Immigration Appeals to rule on an emergency stay. Happily, for the Gutiérrezes, the BIA's stay came through within minutes — before ICE delivered the terrified father and son over to the country they fled for their lives. Upon returning them to El Paso, however, ICE officials placed the Gutiérrezes in detention, where they have been ever since.
Although the Gutiérrezes never missed an immigration appointment during their decade in Las Cruces, ICE officials told the National Press Club that the two are a "flight risk."
Since they have been detained, their home has been broken into and the food truck they used to earn their living has been stolen.
According to estimates by the Department of Homeland Security, it costs U.S. taxpayers $127 a day to house each of the two in detention.

Venture Capital Trends
9 March 2010
Background Information
- www.ncva.org
- WSJ- Venture Firm Shake Out
- VentureSource
- Venture Capitalists' Predictions for 2010 – (Presentation)
- Carried Interest
This note is to entrepreneurs in order to provide some perspective on the state of the Venture Capital Industry (www.nvca.org). Venture firms are of tremendous importance to both the US and global economy. In the US alone VC-backed company revenues make up 18% of the U.S. GDP and account for over 10 million jobs.
VCs are having challenges raising capital as they compete for risk adjusted return. Last year, 125 venture funds in the U.S. collected $13.6 billion, down from 203 funds that raised $28.7 billion in 2008 and down from 217 funds that raised $40.8 billion in 2007. As the data above shows, 10-year return fell to 8.4 percent from 14.3 percent in the previous quarter – and from 40.2 percent one year earlier.
In the NVCA survey above, the majority of VCs see a substantial shake out in their industry with 90% of VCs predicting that the number of firms will shrink (NVCA chart).
Plans to tax carried interest are further challenging VCs politically and financially. VCs take "active" roles and put personal capital into their investments. Further, GPs typically face hurdle rates
From Wilson Sonsini – Example Hurdle Rate Allocation
Net profits will be allocated:
First, to all the Partners until each Partner has been allocated net profits sufficient to represent an 8% cumulative IRR on such Partner's contributed (and unreturned) capital;
Next, 100% to the General Partner until total allocations have been made: 80% to all the Partners in proportion to their respective capital commitments; and 20% to the General Partner;
What does this mean for entrepreneurs?
A: Times have never been tougher in raising capital, VCs are anxious as their RAROC is challenged by potential carried interest tax changes. Net is that the hurdles of getting your plan funded by a VC have gotten much higher (limited capital) and that valuations are tougher due to recent vintage trend data and carried interest tax implications on GP returns.
Entrepreneurs don't give up hope, there remains a bevy of options (some outlined here in Inc.): private placements, angels, angel networks, small business loans, existing customers, …etc. Most of these options start with a relationship or connection to your business. If you are having trouble raising capital, my top suggestion is to look at your board of directors. A successful CEO provided a tactless (but useful) approach to evaluating board performance in capital raising: "they either need to be able to give, get or get off".

Adding cashews to this okra sautéed dish adds a crunch and the garlic adds a spicy taste to this tasty meal. Fresh green okra is a great vegetable and extra tasty made this way. It is also a complete meal when you add a whole grain like quinoa or brown rice. And of course so very tasty.
Okra Sautéed Recipe
3 cups Okra
1/3 cup Cashews, roasted
1 Tsp Almond oil
1 – 3 cloves Garlic, chopped
Lemon or lime zest
Himalayan Salt and pepper to taste
- Make sure you have roasted cashews.
- Cut off both ends of the okra.
- In a large frying pan, heat the oil.
- Now, add the okra, sprinkle with salt and pepper and fry on high heat, stirring, until tender which will be about 10 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook over moderate heat until softened about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the cashews and lemon or lime zest.
- Now enjoy your okra sauteed dish for dinner.
Here are more of my favorite okra recipes:

User Reviews
This game is
Best game ever
- The Best
- Story is quite good
Immediately became a Fave Despite Any Irritating Factors
I absolutely love this game; and I have played it a few times. It has replay value, and it has many hours of gameplay. The post-game content is like another game in itself.
As already written in another review, the post-game is dum-dee-dum since you have to repeat the entire story before you get to the juicy new stuff. You keep everything you earned, (except Arena achievements). Because of that, the enemies are just a nuisance to have to battle since they are no challenge. Fortunately, you're able to earn items from the Arena to improve that experience. You can earn equipment that increases the chance of Metal mons appearing. You can also "attract" enemies to help Quests go by quicker. Post-game does offer perks such as speeding up text you already saw in the previous play-through. Quite a few new areas unlock. They are fun and challenging. The new areas add a whole new dimension, depth, and feel to the game.
Cross is a classic-style RPG with turn-based combat, leveling-up, and grinding. The story has a linear design, but as the game progresses and you gain more travel options, you are able to explore other areas as you choose. That feature is what adds to the ability of this game being re-playable. There is never any question about what-to-do-next; and the world is open to explore.
The dialogue is the only real complaint I have about this game. Much of the dialogue propels the game forward and adds to character development. However, there is too much dialogue that is unnecessarily long, juvenile, extraneous, inappropriate, and redundant- sometimes to the point where it becomes just too much and too annoying.
Throughout the game, we learn, and feel, many of the emotions of the three main ladies. Their background stories are well-written and poignant. For Harvey, the exact opposite is true, even though I found him to be the most likable and lovable character. The ending with Harvey and Olivia is the most realistic and acceptable. The other endings were silly and childlike in some ways. Some dialogue is tear-jerking. (Maybe because I'm a sappy girl.) Some dialogue is incredibly funny. For a game to cause that gamut of emotion for a player, that proves the writing style and ability to improve the game's dialogue exist. It should have been that style all the way through the game. Since some of the dialogue is shallow, it is like the storyline is written by two totally different people. In summ, I have love-hate feelings for the dialogue.
Weapon crafting and amalgamation are always winners with me. In Cross, we get to amalgamate some really strong weapons into unfathomably stronger ones. The strong weapons are perfect for bonus events and areas. But for storyline gameplay, those weapons make your team OP to the point of becoming boring. When that occurs, every enemy presents little-to-no challenge, and you one-shot the final boss.
- Learnable Skills that are Convenient & Powerful
- Unique Character Personalities
- Linear with Some Optional Freestyle Gameplay
- Post-game Play & Plot Twists
- Lengthy & Replayable. Worth the Purchase Price.
- Annoying/Superfluous Dialogue
The best of "customize weapon" Kemco game (as of right now)
Recently, there's been quite a lot of Kemco games where you customize some of the effects of the weapon. You know, adding HP, Str, Recover HP, inflict status, etc etc etc. I've played a lot of them (not all), and from what I can tell, this is the best one. There's no crazy mechanic that you can abuse, and more importantly, there's no mind-grinding things you need to do, since post-game equipments will do that for you. Specifically, later accessories will level up your skills without you actually using them. All of them. That is so nice. Something Asdivine Menace lacked.
And then, there's a character who can learn enemy skill. And, you can take the easy way out by purchasing gem-only items. Gems are relatively easy to come by. Yay.
- Later accessories will automatically level up your skills.
- Bosses -- challenging, but not quite crazy (unless you're up against the secret final boss, who will murder you)
- Lots of good equipments, but none of them are overpowered that destroys the balance.
- For the first time, we have someone who can learn enemy skills! Neat!
- Once you beat the normal mode, you have to start again from the beginning -- waste of time.
- Getting the enemy skills can be annoying, but you have an easy way out -- purchase using gems.
Asdivine Cross was something that surprised me a lot. First of all because the company that made it was nothing more and nothing less than KEMCO, this company here in Brazil we idolized it for having made one of the best racing games of all time, which is the series TOP GEAR.
I did not think that this company still existed and even more, doing RPG's in Old School style, and at a level as beautiful as Asdivine Cross, that game if media had been properly recognized, as it is better than many RPG's known. the story about Harvey and his friends is told very smooth, no winding, dynamic and very funny.
Point to KEMCO
- Superb, Perfect
- Nothing
Good Game
Originally played this weeks ago and finished everything…
Almost everything!
But I got sick walking of the same dungeons and I really have to retrace my previous footsteps…
Currently on level 999 max and still having trouble on beating Neo-Maidame Curie …
P.S. didn't spent a penny on this game …
- Nothing
- Nothing
inkwarrior saved this game
Or rather, his post on Forum about Fairyland grinding did.
======== First Impression
Originally I hated this game, because Trust Charge is dependent on Harvey (the only male hero), and because you only have 9 BG, and mostly because my low level. (Protip: Forget you can set encounter to half, unless you've the premium version.)
======== Comments After Playing
But after starting anew, following the tips and walkthroughs here, this is in overall a pretty cool game. In fact, most of it was because on Fairyland I got level 53 (you know, battle shortcut is a great thing to have…) and because I got a Rune Sword – so Harvey killed Void elemental monsters without a sweat.
It's Asdivine, and in fact, if you're seeking for something very different than Asdivine Dios or Menace, you're looking at the wrong place. But if you liked Dios and Menace, you ought to like this one too.
New Game+ is required for reaching True End, however, as the only thing which is reset are chests (so I got to open the same chests twice!!), you should be back at the place where normal and true end diverges within very few hours.
I do have one complaint, though: Some maps are enraging. While most maps are well-drawn, and there's a huge diversity for gameplay (like minecarts puzzles, and such), when going from a place to another, sometimes, you're forced to revisit a dungeon – and this does not happens only once. In fact, walking on the same dungeon, doing the same path, back and forth, to progress on main story is what took a star off Gameplay.
======== Rating Summary
Already explained about gameplay above, I simply got sick walking back and forth the same dungeon. No problems with controls, they were easy to use (but finding a couple of chests was walkthrough-only), story is well written/presented, and I like battles on Asdivine. And while I didn't like having only 9 skill points available for each character, I probably wouldn't use magic in battles without it, so it was a smart gameplay move, which made more difficult fights interesting.
======== Monetary Worth
I would consider buying the premium version of this game.
- Asdivine, simply put
- Some dungeons

"Look at history. Everything we have, every great achievement, has come from the independent work of some independent mind."
The Fountainhead, Howard Roark played by Gary Cooper, 1949
The Aztec Theater is a movie palace, a design that saw its heyday from the 1920's through the 1960's. Originally named the Mission Theater, it opened on Monday, September 5th, 1927. In 1927, the theater was a testament to the optimism about the community and its future. It was a design masterpiece of entertainment and anchor to other businesses and the community.
The facility embodied the very best in design, construction, decoration, and equipment. The theater originally offered silent films, as well as "talkies", and live stage performances. Because of the prevalence of touring entertainment in the state during this time, the building was also constructed with a working stage. For nearly 20 years the Mission Theater primarily showed film and offered occasional live entertainment.
In the 1940's, as the Dickinson Theaters expanded throughout the Midwest, they purchased The Mission theater and it was renamed The Aztec Theater. Dickinson owned and operated The Aztec until 1974, when their market focus shifted to larger, multi-screen complexes. It was then, that the theater was sold, used solely for storage, and sat dormant for more than twenty years.
In the late 90's, the theater was purchased by theater aficionado and movie producer, Wade Williams. And although Wade was unable to see his project brought to completion at that time, his dream for the small, Shawnee theater never waned. After more than 10 years of waiting, looking for just the right buyer with the same vision, Wade offered to sell the theater to Chris Calkins. Chris and his brother Jeff are long time Shawnee residents and business owners, and they could see Wade's vision through to fruition. Along with their friend and business partner, Bruce Young, Chris and Jeff formed their company, Aztec Group, LLC, and purchased the Aztec Theater.
With Wade as their design consultant, the theater would live again as it did in its heyday…a testament to the optimism about the community and its future.

New Horizons band celebrates 10 years of musical inclusion
Musicians, young and old, skilled and novice, have been coming together for 10 years in West Houston area to make sweet sounds and enjoy a love for playing.
The 70-piece Energy City New Horizons Music Symphonic Band gave its 10th anniversary concert Sunday, Nov. 18, at Memorial Drive United Methodist Church. It included renditions of The Beatles' "When I'm Sixty-Four" and the theme song "Bond … James Bond."
The band started as a ministry of the MDUMC orchestra to encourage those who had played before but perhaps quit to pick up their instruments and perform again.
"There's not a lot of places in this side of town where you can join a band and you don't have to go through sort of an interview process and tryout process, whereas we just accept everybody and give people an opportunity to play," said ECNHM President and drummer Della Mullan.
"We make it very inclusive because there just wasn't an avenue for people who wanted to play who weren't professional," she said.
Bass clarinetist John Murray turned 90 in October, and until he started in the band had not played in an organized group since he left the Iowa State University band in 1950.
More Information
The Energy City New Horizons Music Symphonic Band is always accepting new musicians. While the band is taking a break after its fall concert, rehearsals will begin again sometime in January on Tuesdays at 10 a.m. and Thursdays at 7 p.m. at Memorial Drive United Methodist Church. If you are interested in joining, email firstname.lastname@example.com. Visit www.ecnhm.org for more information.
Murray knew how to play the piano, clarinet, alto saxophone and some guitar previously, but he only learned to play the bass clarinet since joining New Horizons. While he enjoys playing with the whole band, he especially loves when he plays with a small ensemble of clarinets, where his bass one gets to stand out.
He said, "I feel needed, and that's a wonderful feeling to have."
The longtime member at MDUMC is there five days a week between choir rehearsals and band rehearsals. He plans to continue playing as long as he is able.
Alto saxophonist Ruth Parks has been in the band about three years and has encouraged several others from the Westchester and Nottingham Forest VIII subdivisions in West Houston to play with her.
"I had a lot of friends in the neighborhood that talked about playing in the band in the past. And so when I joined this band, I just loved it so much, I thought I would invite other people. I've had a lot of people just jump on board and join in," Parks said.
Music and Artistic Director Terry Tullos said what he appreciates most about the band is the "fun hours of rehearsing and preparing for concerts and making friends and making the best music we can."
"Music is an amazing healer, and it's also an amazing way to get people together. And with this group, we get to celebrate everyone's years," Tullos said. "Whether they were doing music in the 40s or the 80s, there's something for everybody, and we try to find that something."
Picking up music after a few years is a lot like riding a bike, according to flutist Karen Barber.
"It's pretty easy to get back up to speed," she said.
Barber said the Energy City New Horizons Music Symphonic Band helps its members use skills that were often buried but not lost and use them to bless others.
"We took all those lessons, we spent all that money when we were young. It's nice to be able to use the talents that we have for someone's benefits other than just ours," she said.

Martial Peak - Chapter 208
Martial Peak - Chapter 208, Before Trying to Beat Someone's Dog, It's Best to Know Who the Owner Is First.
Translator: Silavin &PewPewLaserGun
Editor: Rosyprimrose
Proofreader: Skoll
''200,000 silver coins is a great sum, are you still not satisfied?'' Bai Yun Feng's brow wrinkled, somewhat unhappily staring at Yang Kai. Up till now they had bought a lot of these martial skills, but never was there such a high price tag, if they had not heard that this martial skill carried extraordinary power, how could they have been so generous?
[This little brat doesn't know how to appreciate kindness!] Bai Yun Feng thought to himself, he was the Bai Family's young master, even if this martial skill really was worth 200,000 silvers he should still happily sell it to me for 100,000!
Seeing that Bai Yun Feng was getting frustrated, Dong Qing Han decided to add fuel to the fire, still pretending he did not know Yang Kai, he joined in, ''Kid, this Young Master will also bid, 200,000 silver coins plus one bottle of the Dong Family's exclusive Profound Yuan Pills, how about it?''
Bai Yun Feng and Fan Hong both turned surprised looks towards Dong Qing Han, they had not thought he would actually offer up a bottle of Profound Yuan Pills Xuan Yuan, that was an Earth Grade Mid-Rank Spirit Pill. Although the grade was not high, the effects were absolutely outstanding. Using it as an auxiliary when one cultivated would allow one to gain more with less effort.
[Does this martial skill really have such a great value? Yes, Dong Qing Han and Yang Kai had talked a lot before;he certainly has some understanding of the martial skill, so he is willing to offer a bottle of Profound Yuan Pills.]
''Two hundred thousand, plus a Common Grade Low-Rank artifact!'' Fan Hong immediately raised his bid.
Dong Qing Han frowned, ''Brother Fan, you should not compete so ruthlessly.''
However, before Fan Hong could speak, Bai Yun Feng cut in, ''Brother Dong must be mistaken, this martial skill has extraordinary power, since we all want it, naturally we have to use some means, and any price we are willing to offer is fair. 300,000 silvers, plus a Common Grade Low-Rank artifact, but it will be a defensive artifact!''
When Fan Hong heard this, he simply smiled, ''Brother Bai is truly enthusiastic.''
This price, even he did not dare to offer up. He had not thought Bai Yun Feng would be so decisive.
Dong Qing Han also laughed, ''Since the Brother Bai is so determined, then this Young Master will not fight with you, it would only let me suffer.''
Bai Yun Feng laughed, cupping his hands, ''You're too humble! For this opportunity, I will surely make it up to you both!''
These three people offering such a price seemed quite satisfied. Looking at them would make one believe that this Star Mark martial skill already belonged to them, completely disregarding Yang Kai opinion.
Yang Kai frowned, lightly saying, ''When did I say I would sell this martial skill for such a price?''
Bai Yun Feng's face suddenly went stiff while Fan Hong was also stunned.
''300,000 silvers, plus a Common Grade Low-Rank defense artifact should be more than enough to offset the cost of your martial skill. You might not know this so I will warn you first. Being too greedy will cause you to lose everything.'' Bai Yun Feng expression dimmed and his voice became somewhat cold and threatening.
Cao Zheng Wen, who was standing behind Bai Yun Feng, also sneered as he said, ''Yang Kai, not giving some face is too shameless. The price Young Master Bai offered is already more than fair, what more do you want?''
Bai Yun Feng opened his paper fan, crossing his legs. Looking towards Yang Kai, gently fanning himself, showing his utter disdain and contempt.
Dong Qing Han continued to muddy the waters, deliberately saying, ''Oh? Perhaps you want to join one of our forces?''
Bai Yun Feng and Fan Hong frowned, thinking that this might be a possibility.
The two people hadn't finished considering before Cao Zheng Wen interjected again, ''Young Master Bai, this person had come to High Heaven Pavilion for more than three years but had only cultivated to the Tempered Body Third Stage, forcing him to become a High Heaven Pavilion Trial Disciple. His qualifications are mediocre at best, and is doomed to have no future. The Bai Family recruiting him will only bring shame, Young Master must think twice.''
Just as he had finished speaking, Yang Kai suddenly flicked his wrist and shot the glass of wine in his hands forward, splashing it directly on Cao Zheng Wen's face.
Everyone's face at the table underwent a steep change. Especially Bai Yun Feng, his expression was extremely ugly.
''Yang Kai you court death!'' Cao Zheng Wen was furious, he tried to attack, but was stopped Bai Yun Feng.
''Little brat, if you want to kick a dog you must first consider his master.'' Bai Yun Feng glared at Yang Kai, his eyes shining a dangerous light, ''If you do not give me a satisfactory explanation today, you should never expect to leave here.''
''An explanation?'' Yang Kai remained indifferent, ''My martial skill is of the Mysterious Grade, is this explanation enough?''
After this remark, everyone's face was shocked again, even Dong Qing Han was also stunned.
Mysterious Grade!
Everyone had guessed that Yang Kai's martial skill was extraordinary, but they had never imagined it was Mysterious Grade.
Even the first-class forces like the Dong Family, Bai Family, and Purple Fern Valley only had a few Mysterious Grade martial skills, and any one of these was a closely guarded treasure of their Sects. If one was not a future pillar of the force they were absolute unable to cultivate it.
''Are you serious?'' Dong Qing Han's voice was trembling somewhat, violently cursing inside, [If I had known it was a Mysterious Grade Martial Skill, I would have seriously tried to acquire it. Since he's my cousin, trading for this martial skill might not have been impossible but now these two idiots Bai Yun Feng and Fan Hong also are involved here, this matter isn't going to be easy to resolve.]
''In the Heaven's Cave Inheritance, my cultivation had only reached Initial Element Seventh Stage yet one strike could wound a sixth-order Monster Beast, what more about this martial skill's rank do I need to say?'' Yang Kai said dismissively.
These few people's breathing became rapid, and their looks towards Yang Kai, which before were filled with contempt and disdain, now were shining with greed.
''On top of the price I offered you before, you may also join my Bai Family as a disciple.'' Bai Yun Feng took a deep breath and decisively offered to accept Yang Kai as a disciple. Allowing him to join in exchange for a Mysterious Grade martial skill, the Bai Family was definitely earning big;as for Yang Kai's treatment once inside the Bai Family, that would be up this his own qualifications.
''I will also accept you as a disciple on behalf of Purple Fern Valley, and guarantee you a good practice environment.'' Fan Hong also hurriedly offered.
''I have no interest in joining any of you.'' Yang Kai was too lazy to spend any more time on them. ''If you want my martial skill, you will have to offer up a martial skill of the same grade!''
Fan Hong frowned, his expression turning ugly, ''You want to learn my Sect's secret skills?''
''One Mysterious Grade skill for another, everyone gains, isn't that fair?'' Yang Kai looked at him and grinned.
Bai Yun Feng sneered, ''Impossible, if we traded our family's secrets they would no longer be secrets, in addition to the Bai Family's direct disciples, no outsiders are allowed to cultivate them.''
''Then we have nothing to talk about.'' Yang Kai got up and started walking.
''Want to leave?'' Bai Yun Feng's look changed, sneering again, his hand reached out to block Yang Kai's path, ''If you don't hand over that martial skill now, you'll never leave here again.''
Unable to reach a deal, he now intended to simply rob him. A no-name High Heaven Pavilion disciple was really nothing in his eyes.
''F*k off!'' Yang Kai could see he was going to make things difficult, attempting to block his path, so he no longer hesitated;throwing out a ferocious punch.''
Bai Yun Feng coldly snorted, meeting his fist with a palm.
A loud bang was heard as a burst of Yuan Qi swirled, the cabin suddenly being torn apart.
*Whoosh*, several figures leaped out from inside.
Dong Qing Han, Bai Yun Feng, Fan Hong, Yang Kai, Cao Zheng Wen and the other High Heaven Pavilion disciple all became serious.
''You dare attack me!'' Bai Yun Feng's anger exploded and his expression went grim. In that brief confrontation, although he did not suffer, he also had not suppressed Yang Kai, not to mention his surprise that the other's Yuan Qi was obviously only at the level of a Separation and Reunion Boundary First Stage, but was actually able to repel his blow.
''Young Master Bai, please consider your dignity, he is not worthy of you dealing with him, let me punish him in your stead!'' Cao Zheng Wen instantly volunteered himself. Yang Kai had poured drink on him, letting him lose a lot of face;naturally he wanted to seek revenge for this. Moreover, he was now a member of the Bai Family, this was a good opportunity to express his loyalty and show his worth.
As long as he beat down Yang Kai, relieving Bai Yun Feng's anger, in the future would he not gain more benefits?
Bai Yun Feng nodded coldly, ''Break his hands and feet, let him know what the consequences of insulting this young master are. A no-name disciple from an insignificant Sect. How dare he be so impudent?!''
''Young Master rest assured, I have long wanted to teach this little shit a lesson.'' Cao Zheng Wen sneered endlessly, staring at Yang Kai from only ten feet away, he said, ''Junior Brother Yang, do not say that I am not a merciful senior, I will give you an opportunity, as long as you now kneel down, and beg while knocking your head to the ground a few times, maybe Young Master Bai will spare you, or at least lessen the bitterness you must eat.''
Yang Kai looked at him dismissively, ''For just another man's pet dog, you sure talk big.''
Cao Zheng Wen turned red, then blue, ''Young Master Bai has shown me great courtesy, what's wrong with following him now? Even the Sect Elders did not say anything, what qualifications do you have to accuse me?''
''You know your own actions, why should anyone else point them out for you?''
''This Elder Brother was once your Senior, and did not want to make life too difficult for you, but since you choose death, do not blame me for being ruthless!'' Cao Zheng Wen took a deep breath, holding down his anger, running his Yuan Qi, no longer bothering to speak, preparing to execute his movement skill to charge towards Yang Kai.
But before he could take a single step, a figure appeared in front of him. In the blink of an eye, Yang Kai had crossed the ten feet gap between them and was now right before him.
Cao Zheng Wen was stunned, immediately becoming serious, desperately throwing a palm.
But Yang Kai readily blocked, resolving his attack with a single move, his fist instantly striking as his Burning Sun's Three Layer Blast exploded out.
Taking a direct hit, Cao Zheng Wen face went white as his chest caved in, frantically falling back to resolve the strength of Yang Kai's punch.
He barely managed to open the distance between them, but the raging influx of True Yang Yuan Qi suddenly burst inside his body.
Three muffled thuds could be heard as Cao Zheng Wen spat arrows of blood from his mouth.
One strike! This change startled everyone present.
Cao Zheng Wen's cultivation, although not much significantly stronger, was still at the Separation and Reunion Boundary Fifth Stage. But he was forced to vomit blood after only a single punch from Yang Kai.
Although this strike was a devastating martial skill, Yang Kai's outrageous speed alone was truly shocking.
Cao Zheng Wen apparently had not dreamed that Yang Kai had become so tyrannical as he constantly coughed up blood, and now, before he could even recover, Yang Kai had already rushed up to him again. Greatly panicking now, how could he possibly resist? After only a dozen more rounds, he once suffered a heavy blow.
The crisp sound of bones breaking emanating from his chest, the unbearable pain caused Cao Zheng Wen to drip with cold sweat.
Yang Kai remained ruthless and indifferent, continuing to attack Cao Zheng Wen. The onslaught only lasted a short time before Cao Zheng Wen was completely suppressed, unable to fight back.
Not long after, Cao Zheng Wen's vision blurred, suddenly taking a kick from Yang Kai he flew up, crashing onto the ground several feet away, unable to get up again.
He was not dead, but it was unknown how many of his bones were broken. It was enough to leave him bedridden for at least several months.

What Are Orthotics?
Last Updated : 09/15/20183 min read
If you're a Medicare beneficiary who needs support to help you stand or walk comfortably, Medicare might cover orthotic devices to help support you, such as braces or shoes, in some situations. For example, Medicare Part B may cover orthopedic shoes prescribed for people who suffer from neuropathy (nerve damage, according to the National Institutes of Health).
Coverage details depend on what type of orthotic shoes (or other orthotic device) you need, and for which health condition.
Types of orthotics
Here are some examples of different kinds of orthotics:
- Therapeutic orthotic shoes or inserts (typically for those with diabetic foot disease)
- Leg, arm, back, or neck braces to help support these body parts
- Artificial limbs to replace a missing limb, such as one that had to be surgically removed
Coverage for orthotics under Medicare Part B
These are some important things to know about the way that Medicare Part B covers orthotics in general:
- Your doctor must prescribe the orthotic as medically necessary.
- You typically pay 20% of the Medicare-approved expense and the yearly Part B deductible applies.
- Participating medical providers agree to charge no more than the Medicare-approved amount for services and devices, but non-participating providers could charge more with no limit on the amount they can charge you.
- If a supplier does not participate with Medicare (he or she hasn't signed an agreement with Medicare to always accept Medicare assignment), and charges more than Medicare allows, you could be responsible for these excess charges.
If your doctor prescribes orthotic shoes (or other orthotic devices) for you, you might want to check with Medicare (or your Medicare health plan, such as Medicare Advantage, if you have one) to find out exactly how coverage works in your situation.
Coverage for orthotics under Medicare health plans
If you receive your Original Medicare (Part A and Part B) benefits through a Medicare Advantage plan (except for hospice benefits, which Part A covers), coverage for orthotics must be at least the same as covered under Medicare Part B. You may want to ask your plan for specific details about how your orthotic will be covered under the plan and what you can expect to pay.
If you decide to stay with Original Medicare, another option you may have is to sign up for a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan to help pay for Original Medicare's out-of-pocket costs. Different Medigap plans pay for different amounts of those costs, such as copayments, coinsurance, and deductibles.
If you have a Medicare plan, you can consult with your doctor and your insurance company to find out how much you will have to pay for orthotics or orthotic shoes. You are also welcome to seek help from Medicare by calling 1-800-Medicare or 1-877-486-2048 for TTY at any time. These toll-free phone numbers take calls 24 hours a day and seven days a week.
Are you concerned that your current Medicare benefits won't cover orthotics, orthotic shoes, or therapeutic shoes very well? If so, I would like to help you maximize your benefits with a plan that can reduce your out-of-pocket costs.

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
Keli Carender at the Seattle 'porkulus' rally. Blogger Michelle Malkin promoted the rally and provided food for the protesters. [Source: Taxing Tennessee (.com)]Covering the anti-economic stimulus "porkulus" rally in Seattle (see February 16-17, 2009), conservative blogger Michelle Malkin uses the term "tea party" in conjunction with the protests, perhaps for the first time. In a blog post largely made up of photos from the Seattle rally, Malkin titles the post "From the Boston Tea Party to your neighborhood pork protest." Malkin credits Seattle blogger and organizer Keli Carender with single-handedly organizing the rally, though liberal blogger Jane Hamsher will later note that Carender had assistance from Malkin, members of Fox News Radio, a representative of the Young America's Foundation, and a Republican politician who works for an Internet marketing firm (see February 15, 2009). The conservative blog Instapundit cites protests to follow in Denver, Nashville, and New York City. [Michelle Malkin, 2/16/2009; Huffington Post, 4/15/2009]

Payments technology trends to watch in 2019
How AI, Millennials and chatbots will shape the future of payments.
As we head into 2019, all signs continue pointing towards a more digital future in payments. A report from earlier this month found that 29 percent of Americans now make zero weekly purchases with cash, with the percentage of people who use cash for everything dropping from 24 to 18 percent since 2015.[1]
Given that my team and I oversee Visa's global network of innovation centers and studios—now in 12 countries—we hear from hundreds, if not thousands, of clients each year about what excites and concerns them. Following is a list of five top trends that we believe will be an impetus for change in commerce over the next year.
1. Artificial intelligence (AI) will power commerce more and more
The profound growth of digital and mobile technologies over the last decade has built a foundation on which AI is now poised to flourish. AI is already doing more than consumers realize, and enterprises certainly plan to keep using more AI in the solutions they offer.

"The world worries about disability more than disabled people do." Warwick Davis
By Alex P. Vidal
If we follow the law, contractors of the old pedestrian overpass in front of a giant mall at the Iloilo City Diversion Road in Mandurriao district should have been charged in court for violation of Republic Act 7277 or "An act providing for the rehabilitation, self-development and self-reliance of disabled persons and their integration into the mainstream of society and for other purposes."
For several years since it was built, the old pedestrian overpass, which has been replaced by a new one that will be operational this year, did not have elevators.
It's mind-boggling how engineers managed to pursue the project without anticipating some loopholes that would give them legal headache.
The structure was not friendly to elderly and persons with disabilities (PWD). And nobody cared; not until a new and better-equipped pedestrian overpass was built early this year to replace it.
The late House sectoral Rep. Art Borjal, a many-time Iloilo and Negros visitor, once told us he would file charges against building owners, public structures and their contractors who did not follow the law on Republic Act 7277.
"Even hotels and malls are mandated by law to build a special area for their customers and clients that are PWDs," Borjal told us then.
He would have protested the contractors' negligence in the old Diversion Road pedestrian overpass.
Section 25 on barrier-free environment of Chapter 6 on accessibility, states that "The State shall ensure the attainment of a barrier-free environment that will enable disabled persons to have access in public and private buildings and establishments and such other places mentioned in Batas Pambansa Bilang 344, otherwise known as the Accessibility Law'. The national and local government shall allocate funds for the provision of architectural or structural features for disabled persons in government buildings and facilities."
Section 26 on Mobility states further that "The State promotes the mobility of disabled persons. Disabled persons shall be allowed to drive motor vehicles, subject to the rules and regulations issued by the Land Transportation Office pertinent to the nature of their disability and the appropriate adaptations or modifications made on such vehicles; and Section 27 on Access to Public Transport Facilities states that "The Department of Social Welfare and Development shall develop a program to assist marginalized disabled persons gain access in the use of public transport facilities. Such assistance may be in the form of subsidized transportation fare. The said department shall also allocate such funds as may be necessary for the effective implementation of the public transport program for the disabled persons. The Accessibility Law,' as amended, shall be made supplementary to this Act."
In a related development, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has decided to put up elevators at the new pedestrian overpass in the same area which would cost some P20 million.
DPWH Regional Director Edilberto Tayao said
the new pedestrian overpass has its footbridge designed for the ease and convenience of PWDs and senior citizens.
"This is in keeping with the Magna Carta for Disabled Persons and Batas Pambansa 344," the Philippine Information Agency (PIA) Iloilo quoted Tayao as saying over the weekend.
PIA said Batas Pambansa 344 seeks to enhance the mobility of PWDs by requiring buildings, institutions, establishments and public utilities to install facilities and other devices.
Tayao described the new overpass, 50.235 meters long and three meters wide and costing P19,302, 321 as "PWD-friendly and the only biggest project so far that the agency has built for the sector."
The structure intends to reduce traffic congestion in the area so that mall goers do not have to use the roads in crossing, according to the DPWH.
Tayao further said: "The city government is encouraging the private sector to contribute to the development and maintenance of the project, through public-private partnership."
We are happy that the DPWH has finally realized the need and importance of building elevators in the new pedestrian overpass.
The new structure connects the giant mall to the other side of the road where the state-of-the-art Injap Tower is located.
It's not yet too late to correct the past mistake. As the saying goes, "better late than never."

Presentation at EKAW2016
Many ICT applications and services, including those from the Semantic Web, rely on the Web for the exchange of data. This includes expensive server and network infrastructures. Most rural areas of developing countries are not reached by the Web and its possibilities, while at the same time the ability to share knowledge has been identified as a key enabler for development. To make widespread knowledge sharing possible in these rural areas, the notion of the Web has to be downscaled based on the specific low-resource infrastructure in place. In this paper, we introduce SPARQL over SMS, a solution for Web-like exchange of RDF data over cellular networks in which HTTP is substituted by SMS. We motivate and validate this through two use cases in West Africa. We present the design and implementation of the solution, along with a data compression method that combines generic compression strategies and strategies that use Semantic Web specific features to reduce the size of RDF before it is transferred over the low-bandwidth cellular network.

US president Barack Obama's travel plans have been revealed ahead of his arrival for next week's G20 summit in Brisbane.
Contrary to official reports, Mr Obama is planning on arriving in the dead of night at the ultra-secure Amberley air base.
Air Force One will land at the base, while other world leaders are set to use the G20 terminal at Brisbane's international airport.
Contingency plans include flying Mr Obama into the city using his personal helicopter or a high-speed motorcade.
He is scheduled to speak at the University of Queensland the morning after his arrival.
Up to 26 activist protest groups are set to begin their demonstrations from today ahead of the summit, which will see leaders from the world's 20 leading economies gather for talks.
Extra security measures around Brisbane have begun ramping up, with additional officers flown in from interstate and New Zealand.
Those forces have been given permission to carry firearms, while international security teams are yet to be cleared to do so.
Up to 7,600 delegates and 2,500 media representatives will be in attendance at the conference, which takes place on November 15 and 16 at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.

So another 2 lonnnng schoolvdays are gone and I couldn't be more glad! Once again, so far, so good.
While at school today, my nurse called me about my blood work. It was all incomplete! I KNEW it! When I dropped my blood work off, I did have that feeling that the person I was handing my blood to had no idea what was going on. To be honest, she seemed more concerned with adjusting her "protect me from H1N1" mask than listening to what I was telling her.
According to my nurse, my hemoglobin was running at 138! (or, 13.8). While low hemoglobin is bad, hemoglobin that is too high is also not good. If my hemoglobin is too high, I am more likely to clot my circuit. The other blood work can wait, but it's important to at least do the hemoglobin so we can see if my aranesp needs to be lowered or something.
I'm selling one of my old cell phones on ebay. It's so frustrating when you list something and all these scam artists bid on it and try to convince you to send the phone somewhere OTHER than Canada or the United states. I get really nervous when I start an auction…and someone joins ebay the VERY same day and starts bidding on my item. I put a restriction on the auction that stipulates you MUST have a valid paypal account to bid on my item. We'll see what happens when the phone actually sells 😦
I'm soo glad that I'm off from work this week. Usually I'd work tomorrow…but I'm gonna set my dialysis machine for 8 hours and 20 minutes…and sleep myself into paradise. Then, I'll get up, disconnect myself, disinfect, shut the water off…then go back to sleep!
(oh yeah, insert MAKE SURE MY ARM IS FOR SURE CLOTTED AND NOT GONNA BLEED ALL OVER THE PLACE somewhere in there too).

Real Madrid sign Spain defender Alvaro Odriozola from Real Sociedad
Real Madrid have completed the signing of Spain right-back Alvaro Odriozola from Real Sociedad.
Madrid announced an agreement on their website on Thursday, saying the defender was set to sign a six-year contract pending a medical, then confirmed his signing shortly thereafter.
Real Sociedad president Jokin Aperribay revealed Madrid did not trigger Odriozola's €40 million buyout clause but rather the two clubs negotiated a smaller deal.
"We reduced it a little. It's a maximum of €35 million, €30m plus €5m in variables," Aperribay told Onda Cero radio when asked about Odriozola's transfer fee.
Aperribay praised Odriozola and believes Madrid have landed a great talent.
"I've known Alvaro since he was a boy as he was friends with my son," Aperribay said. "I've seen him grow up. He is a great person, very responsible. He's a player that will always give his best. He is very fast, I think among the fastest players in La Liga. He is very talented and has a lot of projection."
Odriozola was named to Spain's final World Cup squad but never got off the bench as La Roja were eliminated in the round of 16 to Russia. He scored in a pre-tournament friendly draw with Switzerland last month.
👋 ¡Bienvenido al #RealMadrid, Álvaro Odriozola!#WelcomeOdriozola | #HalaMadrid pic.twitter.com/3zAKeG5fna— Real Madrid C.F. (@realmadrid) July 5, 2018
The 22-year-old started 32 games for Sociedad in La Liga last season, after splitting time in 2016-17 between the first team and the reserves. He also appeared in a further six games in the Europa League, scoring against Salzburg in February.
He said goodbye to his boyhood club in a letter on social media.
"I arrived to Real Sociedad as a 10-year-old boy and with a lot of dreams to fulfill," he said. "Twelve years later I depart having achieved one of the biggest dreams that is to play for La Real's first team. I could only leave my club and my city to face the biggest of challenges: to play for Real Madrid. I'm leaving to pursue the biggest challenge of my life with the aim of making those who have cared for me proud because I'm going to represent you by giving it all I have in my heart and in my mind."
The signing of Odriozola leaves no room at the Bernabeu for Achraf Hakimi, a 19-year-old Morocco international who was a favourite of previous manager Zinedine Zidane.
Recent reports have linked Hakimi with a move to Borussia Dortmund on a two-year loan.
