Overwhelm is a word that has come up a lot this week, for myself and clients, so I thought it would be the perfect topic for this week's solo episode! It got me thinking about the difference between overwhelm and full on burn out/breakdown and if there is a way to prevent both. My take is that overwhelm is inevitable and burn-out/breakdowns can be prevented. I talk about the latter in this episode yet mostly I focus on navigating overwhelm; preventative measures and tips to maneuver through it. On this solo episode I explain that when I say overwhelm I'm referring to the state where you can feel the cortisol (stress hormone) running through your body and find yourself having trouble remaining calm, civil, and not snapping or straight up yelling at others. It's a natural response to being pushed to your limit and having too much stress yet it's still important to understand and know how to work through. I give examples of my past week that led me into overwhelm and a client's account of managing 2 sick children under 2 and rightfully facing overwhelm as well.

Episode 92.  Jews had lived in Libya since the third century BCE, but 1967 marked their final expulsion from the majority Muslim country. Raphael Luzon was a child at the time and fled with his family. Like many, they went to Italy. Overnight, his environment changed. Gone were his Jewish, Muslim and Catholic classmates. Gone was the exchange of holiday greetings with Muslim neighbors. But all was not lost. Those relationships had planted a seed, and that seed grew. Over the decades since university, Raphael has used his religious and cultural knowledge, along with his Arabic, Italian and English, to work in journalism, management, and interfaith dialogue. Within this latter sphere, he has brought high-level religious leaders like the Dalai Llama and Catholic cardinals together for constructive interfaith discussions. In this conversation, you'll hear stories of success, disappointment and perseverance. Especially in these trying times, it's good to be reminded that connection is possible and what it takes to reach that goal. Highlights: Upbringing as an Orthodox Jew in Libya.Instances of "gentleman hypocrisy" and the challenges of integrity in public.Overcoming challenges and finding common ground through religious literacy, sacred texts and mutual respect.The importance of timing and recognizing when constructive dialogue can occur.Participants must be a believer and open-minded, not seeing their religion as the ‘right' way. Trialogue interrupted by challenges.Ongoing initiatives like MENA 2050.Libyan unity and justice effort.Bio:  Raphael was born in Bengasi, Libya. Thrown out of Libya after a bloody pogrom during the “Six Day War”, in he moved 1967 to Rome, Italy, where he lived for 27 years. He then lived in Israel for 6 years.He completed a degree in Political Science at University of Romaat, then worked for 16 years in diplomacy dealing with: Organization, Press and Information, Commercial and Economics, and Administration. He was also a press correspondent in Italy, for Israeli newspapers and media, including Maariv and Hadashot and the Israeli Radio Galei Zahal. In Israel Raphael was active in journalism & management.Currently, Raphael resides in Europe as Manager of a company dealing with Judaica items, books, craft and silver gifts. Raphael's major interests include politics, movies, reading, opera, oriental music, travelling, computers and interfaith dialogue. Social Media links for Raphael: Website – https://rluzon.netTranscript on BuzzsproutSocial Media links for Méli:Website – the Talking with God ProjectMeli's emailLinkedIn – Meli SolomonFacebook – Meli SolomonFollow the podcast!The Living Our Beliefs podcast is part of the Talking with God Project.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text Message**this week begins a fresh new schedule, we're excited to publish now on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Thank you to our dedicated listeners, we appreciate you greatly** Show notes:Can Catholic charities maintain their spiritual mission while navigating the tangled web of government funding? On this MOJO Minute podcast, we grapple with this pressing question as we dissect the historical and ongoing relationship between Catholic organizations and the U.S. government. From tracing the roots of government financial support since the 1960s to spotlighting the contentious 2019 audit of Catholic Charities of San Antonio, we uncover the layers of potential misuse and mismanagement. The episode takes a hard look at President Trump's USAID funding freeze and its ripple effect on Catholic relief efforts, sparking a broader discussion on the fine line between fulfilling spiritual missions and succumbing to material dependencies, guided by insights from Evangelii Nutandi, Pope Paul VI's papal encyclical.   This episode doesn't shy away from holding the mirror up to church leadership, examining the need for accountability, especially within the USCCB. Drawing parallels to a contemporary Tower of Babel, the discussion points to the unsettling alignment of church leaders with governmental influences, raising alarm bells over integrity and ownership. We call for a collective push towards justice and transparency, appealing for prayers and support for those striving to uphold these virtues in both Washington and Rome. **Correction:   Evangeli Nutandi was not a papal encyclical but an apostolic exhortation, links to the document are provided. Key Points from this Episode:• Critically reassessing the reliance of Catholic charities on government funding  • President Trump's freeze on USAID impacting humanitarian efforts  • Historical rise of government funding for Catholic charities since the 1960s  • Instances of financial mismanagement and the need for accountability  • Insights from the papal encyclical "Evangelii Nuntiandi" on charity's mission  • Ethical concerns around high salaries of nonprofit executives  • The call for transparency and regular audits of charitable organizations  • Navigating the loss of spiritual focus amidst financial pressuresOther resources:   Want to leave a review?

But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; (Philippians 1:12)1/ What is the Gospel that is to be furthered ?2/ Instances in scripture of God furthering the Gospel .3/ How is the Gospel furthered in relation to our own lives .This sermon was preached at Providence chapel, Northampton.

In this episode of the Modern Web Podcast, hosts Rob Ocel and Danny Thompson sit down with Mariano Cocirio, Staff Product Manager at Vercel, to discuss Fluid Compute, a new cloud computing model that blends the best of serverless scalability with traditional server efficiency. They explore the challenges of AI workloads in serverless environments, the high costs of idle time, and how Fluid Compute optimizes execution to reduce costs while maintaining performance. Mariano explains how this approach allows instances to handle multiple requests efficiently while still scaling to zero when not in use. The conversation also covers what developers need to consider when adopting this model, the impact on application architecture, and how to track efficiency gains using Vercel's observability tools.Is Fluid Compute the next step in the evolution of serverless? Is it redefining cloud infrastructure altogether?Keypoints Fluid Compute merges the best of servers and serverless – It combines the scalability of serverless with the efficiency and reusability of traditional servers, allowing instances to handle multiple requests while still scaling down to zero. AI workloads struggle with traditional serverless models – Serverless is optimized for quick, stateless functions, but AI models often require long processing times, leading to high costs for idle time. Fluid Compute solves this by dynamically managing resources. No major changes required for developers – Fluid Compute works like a standard Node or Python server, meaning developers don't need to change their code significantly. The only consideration is handling shared global state, similar to a traditional server environment. Significant cost savings and efficiency improvements – Vercel's observability tools show real-time reductions in compute costs, with some early adopters seeing up to 85% savings simply by enabling Fluid Compute.Chapters0:00 – Introduction and Guest Welcome1:08 – What is Fluid Compute?

Instances of political violence around the 2024 election and vote certification on January 6, 2025 did not come to fruition the way some experts feared they would throughout last year. But that doesn't mean that we can forget about threats of political violence until it's time for the next election. In fact, political violence continues to rise in the United States and throughout western Europe.Our guests this week, Rachel Kleinfeld of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and Nicole Bibbins Sedaca of Freedom House and the George W. Bush Institute, are two of the leading voices on how to prevent political violence and create a healthier democracy. They join us to discuss what causes political violence and what democracies around the world can do to prevent it by addressing both cultural and structural issues in politics.After the interview, Chris Beem and Cyanne Loyle discuss whether non-violent protest movements can successfully combat political violence amid growing polarization and support for political violence from some elected officials and political leaders.Kleinfeld and Bibbins Sedaca are the authors of the article "How to Prevent Political Violence," which appeared in the fall 2024 issue of The Journal of Democracy.Journal of Democracy article: How to Prevent Political ViolenceAdditional InformationDemocracy Works PodcastMore shows from The Democracy Group

Wasm a évolué à partir d'asm.js, un sous-ensemble de JavaScript qui pouvait fonctionner à des vitesses proches de celles natives. WASI (WebAssembly System Interface) permet à Wasm de fonctionner en dehors des navigateurs Web, fournissant des API pour le système de fichiers, CLI, HTTP, etc. Le modèle de composant WebAssembly permet l'interopérabilité entre les langages Wasm à l'aide de WIT (Wasm Interface Type) et d'ABI canonique. Les composants Wasm se composent d'un module central et d'interfaces WIT pour les importations/exportations, facilitant l'interaction indépendante du langage. Les interfaces WIT décrivent les types et les fonctions, tandis que les mondes WIT définissent les capacités et les besoins d'un composant (importations/exportations). La gestion des packages Wasm est assurée par Warg, un protocole pour les registres de packages Wasm. Une enquête a montré que Rust est le langage Wasm le plus utilisé, suivi de Kotlin et de C++; de nombreux autres langages sont également en train d'émerger.

Comment Pinterest utilise Honeycomb pour améliorer sa CI https://medium.com/pinterest-engineering/how-pinterest-leverages-honeycomb-to-enhance-ci-observability-and-improve-ci-build-stability–15eede563d75 Pinterest utilise Honeycomb pour améliorer l'observabilité de l'intégration continue (CI). Honeycomb permet à Pinterest de visualiser les métriques de build, d'analyser les tendances et de prendre des décisions basées sur les données. Honeycomb aide également Pinterest à identifier les causes potentielles des échecs de build et à rationaliser les tâches d'astreinte. Honeycomb peut également être utilisé pour suivre les métriques de build locales iOS aux côtés des détails de la machine, ce qui aide Pinterest à prioriser les mises à niveau des ordinateurs portables pour les développeurs. Méthodologies Suite à notre épisode sur les différents types de documentation, cet article parle des bonnes pratiques à suivre pour les tutoriels https://refactoringenglish.com/chapters/rules-for-software-tutorials/ Écrivez des tutoriels pour les débutants, en évitant le jargon et la terminologie complexe. Promettez un résultat clair dans le titre et expliquez l'objectif dans l'introduction. Montrez le résultat final tôt pour réduire les ambiguïtés. Rendez les extraits de code copiables et collables, en évitant les invites de shell et les commandes interactives. Utilisez les versions longues des indicateurs de ligne de commande pour plus de clarté. Séparez les valeurs définies par l'utilisateur de la logique réutilisable à l'aide de variables d'environnement ou de constantes nommées. Épargnez au lecteur les tâches inutiles en utilisant des scripts. Laissez les ordinateurs évaluer la logique conditionnelle, pas le lecteur. Maintenez le code en état de fonctionnement tout au long du tutoriel. Enseignez une chose par tutoriel et minimisez les dépendances.

My guest today, Rayna Neises (Nigh-sis) has a passion for coming alongside those in a season of caregiving. Her experiences of walking both of her parents home, and into the arms of Jesus started her on a journey with a deep desire to help others who find themselves overwhelmed as a caregiver. She's now a certified coach who can help you navigate your caregiving season. She's authored a book, No Regrets, Hope for your Caregiving Season and the focus is to do just that, help you meet the demands of caring for others and not loosing yourself in the process. I love how she puts it, helping people find a way to honor the person they're caring for, walking them all the way home with no regrets and still have a life to walk back into. You'll need to listen to all the different options for balancing the ever changing demands on a caregiver's day. And while Rayna's parent's diagnosis of Alzheimers had an end to her caring season, all of her knowledge, insight and practical advice would be super beneficial for those who are caring for loved ones over an extended period of time. Instances where there is no closure; they're living with uncertainty as to how long they will be caring for their loved ones. The longer the caregiver role the more important it will be to put Rayna's suggested practices in place and use them on a regular basis. The natural relationship of caregiving can include parents caring for children, spouses caring for each other, friends who step in to care well. Rayna is also the host to her podcast, A Season of Caring where her guests share their knowledge and experience, about the subject of caregiving and they too provide hope, encouragement and resources in addition to all that Rayna has available on her website: https://raynaneises.com/ Here are some of the topics we touched on: Rayna challenges the traditional definition of a caregiver, advocating for a broader understanding that includes anyone who provides care and support to others, whether they are paid professionals or family members. Rayna reminds us that Caregiving is not a static role but one that ebbs and flows with the ever changing caregiving demands. Rayna makes the point that it's important to recognize when making adjustments are necessary. Whether it's reallocating time, seeking help, or making pivotal decisions about care etc. We talked about how important it is to build a support network. It's essential, whether it's through family, friends or hired caregivers. Rayna points out ways to build a support system saying this approach not only eases the caregiver's burden but also enriches the caregiving experience for everyone involved. I delved into what it means to finish the caregiving task well and with no regrets. To me, the thought of that being a possibility (and Rayna is proof that it is possible), is an incredibly comforting outcome to being a caregiver. We talked about embracing flexibility and options. I love this because Rayna's journey teaches us that caregiving decisions are not set in stone. The ability to pivot and explore options, whether in living arrangements or daily routines, can lead to better outcomes for both the caregiver and the person receiving care. Ultimately, Rayna's message is one of living without regrets. By being intentional in your caregiving roles, making informed decisions, and allowing room for change, caregivers can look back on their experience with a sense of fulfillment and peace. Rayna's story is a testament to the power of love, resilience, and faith in transforming the caregiving journey into a season of growth, peace and no regrets. If you are in the midst of a caregiving season or if you find yourself in a caregiving role, listen in and let Rayna speak some beautiful encouragement to you today! Live Loved and Thrive!

Story One – What Happened to the Sodder Children? During the dying days of 1945, the small town of Fayetteville in West Virginia played host to a horrendous tragedy. A huge blaze tore through a local household, seemingly claiming the lives of five young children in the process. But the failure of authorities to locate their remains, coupled with a series of bizarre occurrences in the aftermath of the incident ultimately posed the question, what happened to the Sodder Children? Story Two – Into Thin Air The nature of missing persons cases can vary greatly, both in terms of their individual circumstances, and their eventual outcomes. But few such disappearances match the complexity and mystery of those we will be examining in this episode. Instances where those who went missing, having vanished in front of multiple witnesses, seemingly into thin air.

Last time we spoke about invasion of Guam and Tinian. Japanese forces, led by General Obata on Guam and Colonel Ogata on Tinian, prepared defenses with trenches, pillboxes, and artillery. The Americans bombarded these defenses extensively. Despite resistance, they successfully landed on Guam and Tinian, securing beachheads. Intense fighting ensued, with Marines facing heavy casualties. Despite Japanese counterattacks, American forces gradually expanded their footholds, leading to the eventual containment of the Japanese on Orote Peninsula. The Japanese launched a fierce assault against Marine positions on Guam, engaging in close combat with heavy casualties on both sides. Despite initial success, the Japanese offensive was repelled by intense artillery and machine-gun fire, leaving the remaining enemy forces to defend Orote Peninsula. On Tinian, after extensive naval bombardment, Marines landed successfully, repelling Japanese counterattacks and establishing a beachhead. Despite heavy Japanese casualties, the Marines suffered relatively few losses, ultimately breaking the enemy's resistance.

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel you can find a few videos all the way from the Opium Wars of the 1800's until the end of the Pacific War in 1945.  Following the successful capture of Noemfoor and Biak, the Allies possessed ample air and supply bases to advance to the Vogelkop Peninsula, fulfilling General MacArthur's aim of establishing a vital airbase supporting further operations northwestward, potentially towards Mindanao or via Halmahera. Initially considering Manokwari as a non-critical objective, MacArthur's plan centered on seizing Sorong and Waigeo Island for crucial supply and air bases in New Guinea. However, the rapid pace of Pacific theater operations raised doubts about the feasibility of bringing the Klamono oilfields into production before the war's end, prompting the cancellation of exploitation plans by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.  The Joint Chiefs assumed responsibility for the direction and coordination of oil rehabilitation projects in the Dutch East Indies and undertook necessary liaison with British and Dutch agencies. By mid-February 1943 they had decided that military units would at least start all oil rehabilitation and exploitation projects in the Indies, although the final development of the oil resources might be left to civilian agencies. MacArthur was instructed to plan the location and timing details of oil rehabilitation projects in the Indies, and, subject to the Joint Chiefs' approval, execute those plans. At the same time, the Joint Chiefs directed that the organization of special military petroleum production and refining units begin. The requisite troops, most of them US Army engineers and many especially recruited from civilian pursuits, soon began to assemble and train in California. Orders were also placed with manufacturers for the special production and refining equipment, which was sent to California as it was obtained. While these steps were being taken to coordinate oil rehabilitation projects, it had become obvious that in accordance with MacArthur's plans the first significant oil producing region that could be recaptured in the Netherlands East Indies would be the Klamono district on the Vogelkop Peninsula. The Klamono oil was especially valuable in that it could be used as fuel for naval vessels without refining beyond a little "topping" to remove excess naphtha. With limited effort, the wells could be expected to bring in some 16000 barrels of crude oil per day; with additional development, about 25000 barrels. Such production would presumably save the Allies considerable shipping space and time, for, instead of the long haul from United States ports, navy bunker fuel could be produced and topped as necessary much nearer to the scene of combat. With the oilfields no longer a priority and aerial surveys indicating unsuitable conditions for airstrips on Waigeo, MacArthur opted for ground reconnaissance of the Mar-Sansapor area. This exploration revealed promising landing beaches and potential airfield sites, albeit requiring significant effort to develop. Consequently, MacArthur directed Alamo Force to secure the lightly-defended Sansapor-Mar area instead of Sorong-Waigeo, scheduling a landing for July 30. General Krueger tasked General Sibert's 6th Division with Operation Typhoon, designating the 20th Regiment at Wakde-Sarmi as reserve and arranging relief by Major-General John Persons' 31st Division. Admiral Fechteler's Task Force 77 had devised a strategy: to deploy Colonel Forbie Privett's 1st Regiment, consisting of the 1st and 2nd Battalions, onto the Red Beaches northeast of Mar. Concurrently, Sibert's 6th Cavalry Reconnaissance Troop was tasked with securing Middleburg Island. Following the landings, airfields were to be constructed at these sites. The subsequent phase involved Privett's 3rd Battalion executing a shore-to-shore movement to establish a PT base on Sansapor's Green Beach, scheduled for the day after the initial landings. To set this plan in motion, the 31st Division commenced unloading operations at Maffin Bay on July 14 and successfully relieved Sibert's units four days later. The two regimental combat teams of the 31st Division, the 155th and the 167th, which operated at Wakde-Sarmi had no previous combat experience but received much valuable training in a series of patrol actions, company-sized scouting missions, and battalion reconnaissances in force. General Persons wanted to mount an offensive to drive the Japanese from a main line of resistance which they had established in the low hills between Metimedan Creek and Sarmi, but the demands for labor at the Maffin Bay staging area and the necessity for committing many troops to the defense of that area made it impossible to assemble sufficient strength for such an attack. Then, by the time the 6th Division's requirements had been met, the 31st Division itself had to begin preparations for another operation. The 31st Division therefore had to confine itself principally to its patrolling missions, both west and east of the perimeter. Patrols east of the perimeter were sent out to hunt down stragglers from the Japanese Hollandia garrison, and most of them, comprising armed natives of the Wakde-Sarmi area, were led by a Dutch officer, 1st Lt. C.J. Sneeuwjagt. Meanwhile, work went on at the Maffin Bay staging area; and during the period July 18-August 31 a daily average of 2,500 tons of various supplies was unloaded at the bay. During the same period the 31st Division lost 39 men killed, 195 wounded, 34 injured, and 3 missing. The division in turn killed 294 Japanese, found 497 dead, and captured 14 others. However, the deployment of the 6th Division faced delays due to heavy congestion in the Wakde-Sarmi area. It wasn't until July 27 that Sibert's combat units began departing from Maffin Bay towards Sansapor. Maintaining the element of surprise was paramount to General Krueger, hence no preliminary naval or air bombardment was conducted in the Sansapor-Mar area. Instead, General Kenney's aircraft targeted Japanese bases at Manokwari, Sorong, and the Halmahera-Ceram-Ambon region. To further deceive the Japanese, Fechteler's convoy took a circuitous route to approach Sansapor, apparently arriving undetected around 05:00 on July 30. As anticipated, no opposition was encountered, and the first wave successfully landed at 07:01. While Privett's troops swiftly unloaded on the mainland, one LST proceeded toward Middleburg Island. By 07:30, it began deploying the amtracs carrying the reinforced 6th Cavalry Reconnaissance Troop, which safely landed by 08:00. Encountering no resistance, the island was promptly secured, and the troop regrouped before setting sail for nearby Amsterdam Island, which was also secured unopposed by 11:30. Upon returning to the mainland, following the incident where three unarmed Japanese were killed, Privett's 2nd Battalion proceeded inland and eastward. They successfully established defenses along low hills roughly 800 yards from the shore. Meanwhile, the 1st Battalion encountered challenges navigating through dense jungle undergrowth. At 07:40, the 3rd Battalion landed and moved west along the beach to the Wewe River mouth, preparing for the next day's advance to Sansapor. By nightfall, all units were ashore, securing the desired beachhead perimeter. The following day, Privett's 3rd Battalion embarked for Green Beach at Cape Sansapor, meeting no resistance upon landing at 08:44. They then proceeded south along the beach to secure Sansapor Plantation and Village by 10:00. While Cape Sansapor proved unsuitable for the planned PT boat base due to reef-bound shorelines and poor beaches, Amsterdam Island emerged as a promising alternative location. Subsequent operations in the Sansapor-Mar area involved patrolling to eliminate scattered Japanese groups, expanding the beachhead, and safeguarding airfield installations. A significant event occurred on August 3 when 92 sick or wounded Japanese and Formosan troops were captured at a Japanese hospital near Cape Opmarai. Concurrently, General Anami acknowledged the untenable positions on the northeastern Vogelkop and General Ikeda's 35th Division abandoned Manokwari on July 16, embarking on a challenging overland march towards Sorong with limited supplies. Around the same time, General Teshima's headquarters at Manokwari and other small garrisons in the region commenced an overland journey to Windehsi. By August 15, as units of the 35th Division approached the Kor River, the 63rd Regiment moved into the vicinity, engaging in skirmishes with retreating Japanese forces. In these encounters, they eliminated 17 enemy combatants and captured 4. By August 31, the 63rd Regiment had further success, neutralizing 155 Japanese soldiers and capturing an additional 42, with minimal losses on their own side: 3 soldiers killed and 4 wounded. Similarly, patrols from the 1st Regiment on the western flank encountered retreating Japanese forces, resulting in the elimination of 197 enemies and the capture of 154, with only 4 soldiers wounded by the end of August. The total casualties for the Typhoon Task Force amounted to 14 killed, 35 wounded, and 9 injured, while they managed to account for 385 Japanese and Formosans killed and 215 captured. Ikeda's division remnants reached Sorong on August 25 after enduring a grueling 40-day march. Additionally, construction of the Middleburg strip was successfully completed by August 14, and the Mar Drome was slated to be operational by September 3 to accommodate Kenney's fighters and medium bombers. Transitioning to Tinian, following the successful landing on July 24 and the subsequent destruction of the Japanese counterattacking force, General Schmidt's primary objectives for July 25 included landing the 2nd Marine Division and expanding the beachhead. While General Watson's Marines disembarked swiftly, General Cates' 4th Marine Division initiated their advance at 10:00. Colonel Jones' 23rd Marines navigated through dense canefields and underbrush along the coast beyond the O-1 Line. Colonel Batchelder's 25th Marines executed an enveloping maneuver against Mount Maga, securing its summit after intense combat supported by mortars and tanks. Colonel Hart's 24th Marines swiftly moved south and eastward, reaching the O-2 Line. Upon arrival, Colonel Wallace's 8th Marines assumed control of the far left flank and proceeded slowly through the rugged coastal terrain and dense undergrowth toward Ushi Point. Following the successful capture of a Japanese stronghold, the Marines advanced unopposed, advancing 200 yards past O-2 swiftly. However, the day brought hardship for the 14th Marines, facing heavy counter-battery fire resulting in the loss of 13 soldiers killed and 22 wounded. Admiral Mitscher's Task Force 58 conducted a reconnaissance-in-force of the western Carolines and launched a third raid on the Volcano-Bonin Islands to thwart enemy bomber interference, resulting in the destruction of five ships, damage to others, and the loss of 13 enemy planes for only 16 aircraft lost. The next day, Schmidt's undermanned divisions, later reinforced with 1782 replacements to fill Saipan-related gaps, commenced the advance to the O-3 Line. While the 23rd Marines steadily advanced with minimal resistance towards the vicinity of the O-4 Line, the bolstered 25th Marines cleared Mount Maga and, securing the summit of Mount Lasso, advanced into the O-4A Line virtually unchallenged. Meanwhile, the 8th Marines rapidly secured the Ushi Point flats and its airfield, Colonel Stuart's 2nd Marines swiftly advanced eastward, securing Asiga Point upon reaching the east coast by 12:30, and Colonel Riseley's 6th Marines, after landing, pushed southward to establish a line abreast of the 2nd Marines. On July 27 and 28, encountering minimal opposition, the Marines advanced southward in a concerted effort, with riflemen in formation and skirmishers leading the way. The NTLF G-2 Lieutenant Colonel Thomas R. Yancey came to a conservative conclusion on July 27 that summarized not only that day's enemy situation but the entire operation's enemy situation as well: “Without saying so, he seemed to indicate the importance of all units conducting aggressive patrolling far to the front: To date there have been no indications that our front line units have encountered the 50th Infantry Regiment in force [since the first night's counterattacks]. It is believed that this unit is largely intact and it is known that they are well equipped and seasoned troops. They are capable of intervention at any time and may be expected to offer a strong opposition when encountered.” In the same report, Yancey noted that the "most likely enemy capability" was: "To fight a delaying action, withdrawing to, and organizing further defenses in, the high ground in the southeastern end of the island." Faced with this enigmatic enemy situation, General Schmidt formulated his scheme of maneuver and assigned his objectives on July 27 and 28 to facilitate an irregular "elbowing" advance. From the front lines held on the morning of July 27, Objective O-4 was near for the 4th Division, far for the 2nd Division; once Objective O-4 had been reached, the emphasis would shift--Objective O-5 would be near for the 2nd Division, far for the 4th Division. The Corps' attack on these two days, then, would find the 2nd Division carrying the ball on July 27, the 4th Division on the 28th. On the first day the 2nd Division would push forward at 07:30, the 4th Division at 10:00; on the second day the 4th Division would attack at 07:00, the 2nd Division at 10:00. Variations in these attack hours were consistent with plans to punch first with the left, then with the right. Principal advantage of this arrangement was that the bulk of the supporting fires could be allotted first to one division, then to the other. Not only did the 14th Corps Artillery mass its fires to support the main effort, but two 105mm howitzer battalions of the division executing the secondary attack were also made available to support the principal thrust in each case.    Despite the gradual progress made by Cates' Marines as they secured key positions on higher terrain, they successfully reached the O-4 Line by the end of the first day. Simultaneously, Watson's Marines made significant strides on more favorable terrain, aided by tanks, covering a distance of 4000 yards to also reach the O-4 Line. The following day, amidst worsening weather conditions, the 2nd and 6th Marines quickly moved forward to secure the O-5 Line. The weather at Tinian had been unpleasant. Nearly every day featured rain squalls, gusty winds, and ominous clouds. And yet, for Jig-Day and three days following, the seas remained calm enough for reasonably convenient shore activities. The "three days of good weather" that Admiral Hill had considered vital had already expired. On the afternoon of 28 July the weather got worse--much worse. This condition resulted from the effects of a typhoon that built up west of the Marianas and sent its swells and winds against Tinian's west coast. The seas surrounding Tinian changed to a dirty gray-blue as the winds mounted and the waves boiled over one another and grew into larger, uglier masses. Surf roaring against the tiny WHITE Beaches and their rocky flanking shelves forced temporary suspension, at 1800 on 28 July, of all unloading over the beaches. On the left flank, after intense artillery bombardment, Cates' Marines swiftly advanced to the O-5 Line, then, supported by naval forces, resumed their march to secure Gurguan Point and its airfield, advancing to the intermediate O-6A Line, with Jones' 23rd Marines covering a total distance of 7300 yards. On July 29, with half of the island under control, Schmidt directed his forces to push beyond the O-6 Line. Accordingly, the 24th and 25th Marines advanced with minimal resistance and reached the O-6 Line. Although Watson's Marines faced initially light opposition, resistance intensified as they crossed the O-6 Line. The 6th Marines managed to secure advantageous positions just shy of the intermediate O-7A Line, while the 2nd Marines encountered opposition around the Masalog Point hill, halting their progress. The next day, Cates' Marines resumed their southward advance, encountering resistance from Japanese machine-gunners and riflemen entrenched in coastal caves. While tanks engaged the enemy, the 24th and 25th Marines surged forward, effectively securing Tinian Town and its airfield, and eventually reaching the O-7 Line. On the right flank, Watson's Marines also pressed southward, with the 2nd Marines swiftly securing Masalog Hill and advancing along the coast despite heavy machine-gun fire, reaching O-7, while the 6th Marines advanced against sporadic resistance, also reaching O-7. Additionally, the 8th Marines took position at the center of the corps' line. With the capture of four-fifths of the island and over 3000 Japanese either killed or captured, Schmidt's Marines successfully pushed the remaining Japanese forces under Colonel Ogata's command into an unnamed ridge between Lalo and Marpo Points at Tinian's southern end. On July 31, following a massive artillery, air, and naval barrage, the Marines launched another assault to the south. The 24th Marines made significant progress along the coast and on less steep cliffs, securing the road to the ridge top. The 23rd Marines faced stiffer resistance but advanced with remarkable discipline, aided by tanks, gaining high ground. On the right flank, the 2nd and 6th Marines advanced against light machine-gun and mortar fire, reaching the intermediate O-8A Line. In the center, the 8th Marines encountered stronger resistance but managed to establish a foothold on the zigzag road to the top. By nightfall, a 600-yard gap emerged between the 8th and 23rd Marines, which the Japanese could exploit. At 23:00, a banzai charge was repelled; however, at 01:00 on August 1, a 150-man force blocked Wallace's rear road and launched an attack. A counterattack force was quickly organized, driving back the enemy. Ogata's final banzai charge at 05:15 was directed at the left of Company E but failed to breach Marine defenses. Both Colonel Wallace and the enemy commander probably still Colonel Ogata had realized the tactical implications of the cliff-line penetration. Both knew that it provided a route over which thousands of Marines could move into the Japanese rear. The two commanders' reactions were classic. As soon as one of his battalions grasped a toe hold, Wallace exploited the success by committing his reserve there. The enemy commander, as soon as he received word of the penetration, ordered a counterattack to throw the Marines off the cliff and restore the position. Each selected a tactically sound course of action. Only one could be successful. At dawn, as the Japanese began to withdraw, Cates' Marines continued the attack southward, with the 24th Marines reaching the O-8 Line at Lalo Point, and the 23rd Marines, after encountering a sheer cliff, retracing their steps to reach the cliffline in front of O-8. On the right flank, the 8th Marines swiftly advanced to O-8A and moved alongside the 6th Marines toward the cliffs overlooking the water. Finally, the 2nd Marines secured the high ground to prevent enemy escape along the east coast. Despite not reaching Marpo Point, organized resistance crumbled, leading Schmidt to declare Tinian secure at 18:55.  Organized resistance had ceased. But on the early morning of August 2, an enemy force–estimated variously from 100 to 250–struck headlong into the command post of the 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines. Headquarters personnel, armed for the most part with carbines and pistols (although two automatic rifles were also used), considered the enemy group very well "organized." Initially, personnel of the aid station bore the brunt, but soon everyone in the headquarters group–clerks, communicators, corpsmen, assault engineers, mortarmen, and staff personnel–rallied behind their commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Easley, to defend themselves. The Japanese, carrying rifles, grenades, and machine guns, hurled themselves at the Marines with characteristic violence. As soon as one fell, another took his place. In search of substantial assistance, Captain John R. Steinstra, Headquarters Company commander, dashed to the nearby Company F, 6th Marines, acquired a medium tank and a rifle platoon, and led them back to the fight. Here was welcome reinforcement to the 3rd Battalion Headquarters Group, which had fought the enemy at close quarters for over two hours. The machine barged into the battle with guns blazing, and the tide turned. The battalion executive officer later stated that he considered the tank's appearance "vitally important" to the outcome. Those enemy soldiers who remained on their feet hastily departed the area. Daylight made results of the enemy effort visible: 119 Japanese bodies lay almost side by side in and around the 3rd Battalion command post. But the Marines had also taken casualties, one of the dead being Colonel Easley. Nearly 400 Japanese perished in the week following the island's capture. From August 7 onward, the 8th Marines conducted cleanup operations on Tinian until January 1, 1945, eliminating an additional 542 Japanese at the cost of 38 killed and 125 wounded. Throughout the Battle of Tinian, a total of 5,745 Japanese were killed and 404 captured, while American losses amounted to 389 killed and 1,816 wounded. Similar to Saipan, around 4,000 civilians either took their own lives or were killed, but unlike Saipan, the majority—approximately 13,000 civilians—were interned.  On April 15, 1944, there were 16,029 civilians residing on Tinian, out of which 1,658, primarily consisting of women, children, and the elderly, were relocated to Japan prior to the American invasion. Approximately 2,610 civilians lost their lives during the conflict. Journalist Robert Sherrod observed that most casualties occurred due to direct combat, as the Americans heavily utilized artillery, aerial bombardment, and naval attacks, often forcing civilians to seek refuge alongside soldiers. Some perished from diseases, thirst, or hunger. Tragically, some were also victims of atrocities committed by Japanese soldiers, such as being tied together and attacked with grenades. Instances of mass suicide occurred, notably at the "Suicide Cliff," where parents threw their children off the 120-foot precipice, and some civilians were pushed by Japanese soldiers. According to a captured Japanese soldier, a large group willingly perished in caves at the military's behest. By August 1, only 2,468 civilians had been documented, but within three days, this number surged to 8,491. The 2nd Marine Division established a camp for civilians at Ushi Point Airfield, while the 4th Marine Division set up another at the ruins of Churo village, which became a permanent settlement for all displaced civilians. By October 15, Camp Churo housed 10,926 civilians, comprising mainly Japanese and Korean nationals, with nearly half being children under 15 years old. The military administration struggled to provide adequate care due to shortages of relief supplies. Seabees oversaw the construction of temporary shelters initially, which were later replaced by more durable structures using salvaged materials. The internees also supplemented their provisions by salvaging food and cultivating gardens, with Seabees stepping in to provide improvised diesel stoves as firewood became scarce. In late 1945, Admiral Spruance, who succeeded Nimitz as CINCPOA, ordered the repatriation of all Japanese and Korean civilians, a process completed by late 1946. Shifting focus to Guam, by July 25, General Geiger's Marines had secured two beachhead areas, with General Turnage's 3rd Marine Division advancing on the Fonte Plateau and General Shepherd's brigade sealing off the Orote Peninsula. Despite a fierce enemy counterattack on both fronts, Japanese resistance was effectively shattered. On July 26, while mop-up operations continued in General Turnage's sector, General Shepherd's Marines prepared to assault Orote. Following coordinated air, naval, and artillery bombardment, the 4th Marines launched their attack at 07:00, making swift progress. However, the 22nd Marines faced delays due to enemy artillery fire, necessitating the 4th Marines to extend their line to cover the exposed flank. Although the mangrove swamp hindered Colonel Schneider's Marines, they successfully cleared the area by afternoon, establishing contact with Colonel Shapley's forces at RJ 15, albeit with a slight eastern bend in their line. Meanwhile, Shepherd's units encountered mines, pillboxes, and bunkers, halting their advance by nightfall. On the morning of July 27th, the offensive recommenced, yet the 4th Marines encountered difficulties in penetrating the robust enemy defenses without tank support. However, once the mines were cleared, the Shermans neutralized enemy positions, enabling the Marines to take control of the ridge ahead, although they couldn't advance further through the coconut grove. Meanwhile, the 22nd Marines, moving alongside Shapley's 3rd Battalion along the inland road, faced delays due to the swamp. They encountered numerous obstacles including pillboxes, trenches, dugouts, and mines near the old Marine Barracks. Remarkably, the determined enemy abandoned their fortified line around 5:00 PM after a substantial bombardment, allowing Schneider's Marines to swiftly advance ahead of the 4th Marines and seize strategic terrain by nightfall. Following another intense bombardment, Shepherd's forces prepared to attack on July 28th. Despite Japanese resistance, Schneider's tank-supported advance reached the O-4 Line by 10:05 AM, creating a significant gap between Marine regiments. Nonetheless, the 22nd Marines persisted, fighting through the Marine Barracks and halting just 100 yards east of Sumay. Meanwhile, the 4th Marines faced slow progress and fierce opposition, stopping within 150 yards of the airfield. On June 29th, Shepherd launched a final assault after yet another heavy barrage, with both regiments successfully advancing the entire length of the airstrip against minimal resistance, establishing a defensive line 150 yards beyond the strip by 2:00 PM. As the 22nd Marines redirected their efforts to clean up the devastated Sumay area, effectively eliminating the last remaining enemy stronghold the next day, the 4th Marines continued their advance northward, with a combined tank and infantry patrol reaching the tip of the peninsula. With the peninsula now under control, the American flag was once again raised over the ruins of the Marine Barracks.General Shepherd proclaimed “On this hallowed ground, you officers and men of the 1st Marine Brigade have avenged the loss of our comrades who were overcome by the numerically superior enemy three days after Pearl Harbor.” Orote saw over 2500 Japanese casualties, while Marine losses amounted to 115 killed, 721 wounded, and 38 missing. Moving northward, following a failed Japanese counterattack, Takashina's forces were preparing to retreat further into the island's interior, but the Americans were relentless in their pursuit. After regrouping and subjecting the enemy to heavy bombardment, battalions from Turnage's regiments launched an assault towards the Fonte Plateau on July 27, albeit encountering stubborn resistance from the still-active enemy. Meanwhile, Colonel Butler's 3rd Battalion successfully advanced to the D-2 Line on the same day. Following successful defense against several small-scale enemy counterattacks overnight, Turnage initiated the main push towards the objective beachhead line on the morning of July 28. The depleted 3rd Marines, with Colonel Craig's 2nd Battalion attached, launched another assault, encountering minimal resistance and securing the D-3 Line by afternoon, thereby completely controlling the abandoned Fonte area. Further bolstered by the 3rd Battalion, 307th Regiment, the 9th Marines made progress in their attack towards the strategic Chachao-Alutom-Tenjo ridgeline, marking a significant initial victory. Simultaneously, the 2nd Battalion, 307th Regiment, supported by units from the 305th Regiment, advanced towards Mount Tenjo from the south. Under the protective cover of artillery neutralization fire, Craig's 3rd Battalion effectively demolished a concrete emplacement at the center of Mount Chachao's summit and swiftly secured the beachhead line adjacent to Mount Alutom. Simultaneously, General Bruce's infantry units swiftly captured Mount Tenjo, with Craig's 1st Battalion joining them by day's end. The 21st Marines faced minimal resistance, eliminating remaining enemy pockets around the radio towers and reaching the designated beachhead line. Thus, Turnage's attack objectives were achieved, extending the beachhead line across the entire front. Additionally, the 21st Marines overran the 29th Division command post near the Fonte River, resulting in Takashina's demise as he supervised his retreating units. Consequently, General Obata assumed direct command of the remaining forces, adhering to Takashina's plan for a strategic withdrawal to Mount Santa Rosa, with delaying positions established at Finegayan and Mount Barrigada. The Japanese launched eleven localized counterattacks against Turnage's beachhead line on July 29, all of which were successfully repelled, inflicting 800 casualties on the attackers. The 3rd Marine Division then focused on consolidation and reorganization for the remainder of the day while rear areas were cleared of enemy presence. In the meantime, as the 306th Regiment secured the unoccupied Mounts Alifan and Taene, Bruce had also dispatched several patrols to the southern end of the island since July 27, successfully discovering by the end of July that the sector had been completely abandoned.  I would like to take this time to remind you all that this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube.

The allies chose to focus on the Vogelkop Peninsula over the Klamono oilfields, as MacArthur's focus shifted to the Mar-Sansapor region for airfield development. The Marines faced a horror show in Tinian but managed to secure her while progress was made on Guam. The Americans were clawing ever closer to the Japanese home islands.

People have been using non-stick cookware in their kitchen for decades. But many wonder if these convenient pots and pans are causing us harm. Instances of what some call the Teflon Flu are increasing, causing great concern for poison experts. The technical term for this phenomenon is polymer fume fever, which can occur when the non-stick chemicals from the cookware begin to break down. It doesn't happen with all pots and pans, but experts are trying to figure out how to spot the issue before it causes harm. The only way to keep this from happening is to replace your cookware often...

There are some friendships we just need to let go of. In some instances, this means letting go of an aspect of a friendship. In others, this actually means letting go of an entire friendship.Today's guest is Emily Rogers, a transition and leadership coach and the host of the Leap to Lead podcast (which I was recently a guest on; link in the show notes!). Emily has lived overseas for 20 years and has personally navigated many moves and transitions. She says that with each transition comes a spring cleaning of sorts with past connections, which requires stepping back and reflecting on the energy of these relationships. Can you alter the expectations of this friendship? How will you connect? Is it time to let go entirely?Hopefully this episode helps you navigate those transitions with more grace and intention, so that, if you desire, those old friendships can still thrive in their new forms.In this episode you'll hear about:The different kinds of life transitions that affect friendship: physical moves; starting a family; a new romantic relationship; a medical emergency; finishing school, etc.Instances in which you SHOULDN'T do the work (for example: a toxic relationship; lack of capacity; you simply don't want to)Recognizing energy: when it's right, when it's not right, and when it's time to shift your friendships (and remembering that what feels right now might not feel right later!)The impact of taking a step back six to eight months after a big move or life transition to make sure your friendships aren't draining (or sliming!) youManaging interactions with draining people you have to spend time with (for example, doing an activity together or only hanging out in groups)Resources & LinksListen to Emily's podcast, The Leap to Lead, which I was recently a guest on!Go back to Episode 12 and learn about my theory about the Roots Framework.Like what you hear?

Instances of violence are found more commonly in areas of concenrated poverty. This can be hard to understand for those of us unfamiliar with those spaces. This week, Meg and Alex talk about violence and how to position yourself to be a positive participant in change instead of removing or distancing yourself. 

Burke and Hare, Edinburgh's most ghoulish residents! In contrast to the increase in numbers of executions in the wake of the Bloody Code, the Judgement of Death Act 1823 saw the number of crimes punishable by death in Britain drop dramatically. Good news in theory, but since medical and anatomical schools were only legally allowed to dissect the bodies, or cadavers, of those who had been condemned to death, this led to an extreme shortage of dead bodies available. However, the financial compensation offered by medical schools meant that some unscrupulous types soon found a way around this shortage of bodies, leading to a rash of grave-robbing by those known as resurrectionists. Instances of grave-robbing became so commonplace that relatives were known to watch over the recently dug graves of their dearly departed and watch towers were installed in cemeteries across the land. The ‘fresher' the body, the more money it was worth, thus it didn't take long before grave-robbing graduated to anatomy murder – murder committed with the sole intention of providing the remains for medical research and attracting a monetary reward. The most infamous of which were the Burke and Hare Murders in Edinburgh, which occurred between 1827 – 1828.

In today's episode, we explore a critical GitHub Enterprise Server vulnerability (CVE-2024-4985) that allows authentication bypass and the necessary updates for protection (https://thehackernews.com/2024/05/critical-github-enterprise-server-flaw.html), EPA's enforcement actions against water utilities lacking cybersecurity measures (https://www.cybersecuritydive.com/news/epa-enforcement-water-utilities-cyber/716719/), and newly discovered security flaws in the Python package llama_cpp_python (CVE-2024-34359) and Firefox's PDF.js library (CVE-2024-4367), highlighting potential risks and the importance of vigilant security practices (https://thehackernews.com/2024/05/researchers-uncover-flaws-in-python.html). 00:00 Cybersecurity Threats to US Water Utilities 01:02 Deep Dive into Water Utility Cybersecurity Flaws 03:26 Strategies for Enhancing Cybersecurity in Water Utilities 04:49 EPA's Enforcement Actions and the Importance of Cybersecurity 06:38 GitHub Enterprise Server's Critical Security Flaw 08:00 Emerging Cybersecurity Threats and Updates Tags: GitHub, Enterprise Server, CVE, SAML SSO, cybersecurity, vulnerability, GitHub updates, EPA, cyberattacks, water utilities, vulnerabilities, security enforcement, Checkmarx, Llama Drama, Mozilla, PDF.js Search Phrases: GitHub Enterprise Server CVE-2024-4985 vulnerability SAML SSO security breach in GitHub How to secure GitHub Enterprise Server EPA cyberattack vulnerabilities in water utilities Steps to mitigate water utility cyber threats Llama Drama security flaw in llama_cpp_python High-severity vulnerability in Mozilla PDF.js Protecting systems from PDF.js exploits Checkmarx reports on Llama Drama Latest cybersecurity vulnerabilities December 2023 May22 The EPA has announced that over 70% of us water utilities inspected are vulnerable to cyber attacks due to outdated security measures like default passwords and single log-ins. What specific vulnerabilities put major water utilities at risk. And how is the EPA planning to address them? A high severity vulnerability in Mozilla's PDF dot JS have been uncovered allowing threat actors to execute arbitrary code and. Compromise millions of systems globally. What methods can users implement to help protect their systems from these vulnerabilities? And finally an alarming get hub enterprise server vulnerability now threatens unauthorized administrative access through. SAML single sign-on prompting crucial updates. From GitHub to prevent exploitation. How can organizations secure their get hub enterprise server instances against this vulnerability? You're listening to the daily decrypt. The environmental protection agency or EPA announced that the majority of us water utilities. The inspected are vulnerable to cyber attacks due to using default passwords and single log-ins. And to get a little more specific over 70% of water utilities that were inspected since September of last year, failed to comply with the safe drinking water act. By commonly using single log-ins for multiple employees. And not revoking access for former employees. So being a cybersecurity professional, it's really hard for me to even imagine using the same login as somebody else. This is such a terrible idea for many reasons. Some of which are obvious and some of which might not be like, first of all, multiple people know your password. Which is kept. Under wraps. Like if it's kept locked down, that's not a huge issue, but it's not being kept locked down. If this is a practice it's not being kept, locked down. So what if one of the people who's using that log in? Already has that password memorized and they decide to use it on a different site. Maybe even with that same email address and that site gets breached. And the email address is probably water company related. So any attacker that comes across these credentials will instantly have access to. The water utilities. Infrastructure. So say someone gets into the water utilities, infrastructure using those credentials. It will be impossible to go back and look at logs and see where the error was. It could be across many different people. So they're not even able to identify the root cause of the breach. Logging is essential. So you want to make sure that you know exactly who is doing what actions on which computer. Sharing credentials makes that impossible. You can also lock down different permissions by each user account. And then monitor. Uh, activities based on those permissions. So if you see an account, that's trying to do something that they shouldn't be doing. It's an indicator of compromise. So, how do I know what this account that's being shared across multiple people should be doing? Can you be logged in, in multiple places at once? Is one of the people using that account in Nigeria. Who knows. Right? So this is just terrible. And then the second issue is former employees. Credentials are not being revoked. They're not being closed down. So that means that if anybody comes across the username and password, Of a former employee, they can access the system. That includes the former employee. What if they got fired? What, if they have a malicious intent against their boss, they can log in after being terminated or leaving the job and mess things up for the company. Now I understand that these two things take resources to fix. It's going to take a bigger it team. It's going to take some automation tools. But I cannot stress this enough. Uh, compromise. Will cost more. Then the tools use to prevent it. So if you're maintaining one of these infrastructures, Please talk to your boss every day. Schedule an email. Talk to your investors, talk to the board, make sure they understand that if this place gets compromised, it's going to cost them way more than hiring another it person or buying a tool that can automate this process. And if you're feeling ambitious, One of the other things you can do with former employees accounts is to create a decoy account. Which is essentially a honeypot. So say someone does come up. Upon these credentials and they try to log in. You have already set up alerting that no one should be logging in with these credentials. But if an attacker is in the environment and finds these credentials, they will see a history of usage, which makes those credentials more enticing. And that's something you can't get with just a brand new account. It turned into a decoy. So it's recommended to repurpose every former employees account as a decoy set up an alert. Nobody should be logging in. Nobody should be touching these credentials or even attempting to log in with these credentials, if they are. You've been breached. It's one of the easiest ways to detect a breach. Alright, lecture aside. Let's finish up this news. The EPA has taken more than 100 enforcement actions. Against the community water systems since 2020 and plans to increase future inspections. Criminal enforcement may occur. If there's imminent danger. So you can be prosecuted as a criminal for neglecting to secure your network. If you work for a water plant or in a water agency. Because. Imminent danger is upon us. If you don't secure our network, right? What are the consequences for a compromise at the source of our water? Well, we don't get water and what do we need to live water? In fact, in recent months, Iran, China and Russia, as well as criminal ransomware gangs have targeted us and UK. Water treatment facilities. And they will continue to target these facilities because they are critical infrastructure for the United States. Right. The president needs water. The Congress needs water police force needs water, military needs. Everyone needs water. So it's going to be a top target and we don't have the funding to secure it. So according to. SISA. 95% of the 150,000 water utilities in the us do not have a cybersecurity professional on staff. And that sounds like a staggering amount, but it's pretty expensive to have a cybersecurity professional on staff. We get paid a lot of money. Um, And what I'd like to know is if any of these. Water treatment facilities are contracting out to cybersecurity professionals. So. There are companies out there that will provide advice for a fee. So you don't have to have someone on your staff. There are also companies out there that will monitor your networks for a fee. So you don't have to build out your own security operation center. If you'd like recommendations on either of these services or to be pointed in the right direction, feel free to shoot us a DM on Instagram or YouTube. And we will get back to you. All right. There is a new maximum severity flaw in get hub enterprise server that could allow attackers to bypass authentication protections. This flaw score is a perfect 10 out of 10 on the CVSs scale. Which indicates it's extremely critical. And so as mentioned, the vulnerability allows unauthorized access by forging a SAML response to provision or gain access to a user with admin privileges, but only in instances using SAML single sign-on with optional encrypted assertions. The issue affects all G H G S versions prior to 3.1 3.0. Get hub has released patches. And in some versions of 3.9, three point 10, three point 11 and three point 12. So if you're using these versions or earlier, Please go update. Instances without SAML SSO or those using SAML SSO without encrypted assertions are not affected by this flaw. If your setup doesn't involve encrypted assertions, you're in the clear. But encrypted assertions, improve security by encrypting messages from the SAML identity provider during authentication. However. This feature led to the discovered vulnerability when not properly updated. So just keep your crap up to date. I know it's tough. And finally researchers have uncovered a severe security flaw in the Lama CPP Python package tracked as CVE 20 24 3 4 3 5 9 with a CVSs score of 9.7. So. Pretty dang critical. This. Vulnerability is named llama drama. And can enable threat actors to execute arbitrary code, potentially compromising data and operations. The vulnerability stems from the misuse of the Jinja two template engine. Leading to server-side template injection. The flaw has been patched in version 0.2 0.72. And if you're using this package, you should update immediately. Additionally Mozilla discovered a high severity flaw in the PDF dot JS JavaScript library used by Firefox. This flaw allows arbitrary JavaScript execution. When a maliciously crafted PDF document is opened inside of Firefox. The issue has been resolved in Firefox 1 26 or Firefox ESR, one 15 dot 11. So make sure to update your browser as soon as possible. As well as any related software. To their latest versions. This has been the Daily Decrypt.

Story One – Phone Calls From The DeadWe have previously explored reports concerning the spirits of those who have passed on, but this week, we will be examining a phenomenon which is even more bewildering. Instances in which friends and relatives have received what should have otherwise been an impossible phone call from the dead.Story Two – RenascenceThere are numerous examples of famous and influential figures who claim to recall past lives. Such stories have often proven easy to refute, with suggestions that those involved are courting fame or controversy. But such tales prove more difficult to dismiss when the parties involved are small children, expressing thoughts and feelings too advanced for their years, almost as if they have been here before.MUSIC Tracks used by kind permission of Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0Tracks used by kind permission of CO.AGSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Instances of antisemitism are increasing across the world. Even at elite universities, Jewish students are suffering at the hands of the “woke” Left. We begin today's show by talking with Yael Bar Tur, a communications expert and former head of the NYPD social media. Yael gives us shocking details from the recent “protests” at Columbia University. It's almost pointless to call them protests anymore. In reality, they're organized efforts by Leftists to bully, intimidate, and harass Jewish students on campus, as they cry for the destruction of Israel.  We also discuss how Yael uses her skills to tell the truth about Israel and to combat mainstream media's misinformation. Then, We're joined by Tom Nelson, the producer of the new movie, Climate: The Movie. You might remember our recent project: Climate Change on Trial, which dissected the legal battle between climate activist Michael Mann and Mark Steyn. Well, Tom was with us during the this trial because he is an engineer and a longtime climate-madness skeptic. Tom has just produced a movie about why these climate extremists are the biggest scam ever.

This is part 1 of a 2 part conversation. Part 2 is available early via patreon.com/nicemangos.  Join me for a discussion with Chris Kavanagh of the Decoding the Gurus Podcast. In part one we chat more about the broader questions …like the eternal ‘litmus test' question of “Is Sam Harris Rightwing?” and I try to get a sense of Chris' own politics and positions. On the surface Chris and I would probably vote the same, and we're both critics of the heterodox/IDWsphere but our output is framed very differently, I think our motivations and goals with it are  perhaps vastly different as well. We get into that and more in part 2. —— If you enjoy the show pls consider supporting via patreon.com/nicemangos and leaving a review on Apple Podcasts/Spotify Links: Fastest decline in a population ever recorded https://x.com/medicalaidpal/status/1763172220900151317?s=61&t=w7q_ejvwZ_gCFj9WV50Lqw Biggest cohort of paediatric amputees https://www.newyorker.com/news/dispatch/the-children-who-lost-limbs-in-gaza Law for Palestine Releases Database with 500+ Instances of Israeli Incitement to Genocide – Continuously Updated https://law4palestine.org/law-for-palestine-releases-database-with-500-instances-of-israeli-incitement-to-genocide-continuously-updated/ IDF removing children without consent from Gaza https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-said-to-transport-gazan-orphans-to-west-bank-via-israel-without-cabinets-ok/ https://www.aljazeera.com/program/newsfeed/2024/1/2/israeli-soldier-brought-baby-back-to-israel-from-gaza Israeli Cabinet Members Join Event Calling for Ethnic Cleansing & Resettlement of Gaza https://youtu.be/7J0_J3Qy6YY?si=clqZe5x8DH1rfCe4 Israeli Ministers attend conference calling for ‘voluntary migration' of Palestinians   https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/jan/29/israeli-ministers-attend-conference-calling-for-voluntary-migration-of-palestinians My miniseries on Sam Harris that Chris mentioned: Woking Up https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1caIpbHnvDjKu0Ph4DA0Nb?si=ab7b7bfcbfc14185 DTG's recent conversation with Harris: https://open.spotify.com/episode/75PdQjoEnvfn6aHev5Xjuf?si=9RSwlQ4vS4qt1BzEk1Bjww

GREETINGS: The show begins with the declaration of "war" by the Kremlin. Then to Kyiv, to Beijing, to Seoul, to Stalin in 1942, to Napoleon in 1807, to Mao in 1966 -- all instances when ideology failed.  To China sinking without a plan. To Central Africa and the Russian ambition of building a railroad from Tripoli to the Central Africa Republic, To the UK re income inequality and bad outcomes for nations. To California and the cougar attack in El Dorado County. To Occitanie France and Spring splendor. To Boca chica overun with tourists.  And to the surface of the moon with Odie, the IM probe lander. 1900 CAR

In their contemplation of living within a litigious society, Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar recount strange lawsuits that underscore the prevailing culture of litigation. Instances like a woman suing over repossessed gas and an individual suing himself for perceived religious rights violations highlight the extremes to which litigation has escalated. Yet, amidst these anecdotes, the group turns to scripture, particularly Paul's teachings in Corinthians, to explore alternative paths for resolving disputes within a Christian framework.The absurdity of cases becomes a backdrop for a deeper discussion on the scriptural foundation that allows for self-advocacy. Paul's strategic use of his rights as a Roman citizen becomes a case in point, emphasizing the compatibility of Christian principles with an awareness of and engagement with earthly laws.Recognizing the divine intent behind earthly legal systems, the guys advocate for a careful approach to dispute resolution. In the early days of the church, local communities navigated conflicts through mutual understanding. The guys propose a return to this communal approach, urging individuals to tap into the resources within their immediate reach, such as community networks, elders, and pastors.Through a biblical lens, the guys encourage prioritizing reconciliation over immediate legal recourse. Quoting from Corinthians 6:1-7, they express astonishment at Christians taking each other to court and underscore the importance of taking the higher road. This scriptural passage becomes a focal point for their discussion, emphasizing the willingness to endure material losses for the sake of spiritual gains and prompting a reevaluation of intentions behind the pursuit of justice.The guys advocate for a humble and intentional engagement with dispute resolution within the local church. They urge individuals to examine their motives and seek counsel from diverse perspectives within the community. The guys acknowledge the complexities inherent in certain disputes. They caution against a blanket rejection of legal intervention, recognizing situations where financial ruin could loom without legal redress.Overall, the guys emphasize the Christian principles of kindness and consideration in dispute resolution. Quoting theologian John Macarthur, they assert that settling disputes within the Christian community serves as a testimony of unity, harmony, and humility to the broader world, offering a stark contrast to the divisive nature of public court involvement.Thanks for listening!
