Leading simulation data company VRAI have announced they will open their first US office in Orlando, Florida having raised a $5m (£4.2m) investment round to fund their US growth. VRAI is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, expanded into the UK in 2020, and is now looking to grow its presence in the US over the next three years. VRAI plans to double its overall employee headcount from 25 to 50 and triple annual revenues from €5m to €15m over the next three years. VRAI will be creating up to 10 high value jobs in their first year in Orlando, including BD & sales, customer solutions engineers, data engineers and software developers, as well as relocating some senior leadership to show our commitment to the market. VRAI is seen as one of the niche leaders in the simulation data space in Europe, and is now looking to bring its cutting edge products to the US market. VRAI provides human performance data products for simulation training in aerospace, defence, security and offshore renewable industries. Orlando is the global hub for simulation and training with the National Centre for Simulation based there, of which VRAI have been a member since 2017, which sees simulation end users such as the US Army, Air Force and Navy, industry and research community working together on over $6bn worth of contracts annually. VRAIs initial office will be located in Research Park, next to the University of Central Florida and in the heart of global hub of simulation end users, companies and research community. VRAI's first three local contractors are all US military Veterans with decades of experience in simulation. In addition to Orlando being the global hub for simulation, Florida is the 16th largest global economy in its own right worth $1.2tn annually, is ranked as the No 1 state in the US for entrepreneurship and No 1 for attracting talent. Irish electrical and electronic equipment exports to the US were worth $1.1bn in 2023 and there are currently over 900 Irish owned companies exporting to the United States. Ireland is now the 6th largest source of foreign direct investment into the US, with the value of investment by Irish companies worth $322bn in 2023. VRAI CEO Pat O'Connor commented: "We believe that the insights we can deliver from human performance data can transform how simulation is delivered, and ultimately how people are trained. Orlando is the best place we could invest to make that happen, as the global hub for simulation. We are excited to be investing $5m in our US Office, we look forward to bringing our niche leading technology here, creating high value jobs and scaling our operations in the US from Orlando." Consul General of Ireland in Miami, Sarah Kavanagh, said: "We are thrilled to see this significant investment in Florida by VRAI. Ireland and Florida are both leaders in innovation and share an important bilateral investment and trade relationship. Currently, Irish companies employ 15,700 people across a range of industries all across the great state of Florida, and the Consulate will continue to support and grow that important investment." Carol Ann Logue, Director, Innovation Districts Programs & Operations, University of Central Florida, said: "VRAI is a perfect example of who we want to bring to Central Florida through the Soft Landing Program as they have a significant track record of success already and has the potential to become a major company in our region too," says. "Their technology can improve the data coming from simulations and we're looking forward to being a part of their expansion into this market." See more stories here.

IT Privacy and Security Weekly update.

What is the primary concern regarding the use of WhatsApp and other encrypted messaging apps recently? Recent reports indicate that spyware, specifically "Graphite," has been used to target journalists and civil society members through zero-click attacks on encrypted apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal. This means that these apps are not as secure as previously thought, even though they employ end-to-end encryption. The spyware can infect devices without any user interaction and potentially compromise communication data. What are the security vulnerabilities identified in certain healthcare patient monitors? The FDA has highlighted cybersecurity issues in Contec's CMS8000 and Epsimed's MN-120 patient monitors. These devices, when connected to the internet, are susceptible to unauthorized remote control, software backdoors, and data breaches containing personal health information. One backdoor was linked to a Chinese IP address, raising additional concerns about foreign access to sensitive health data. Why has the Chinese AI chatbot, DeepSeek, been banned in Italy and Taiwan? Italy's data protection agency blocked DeepSeek because its developers did not adequately explain how user data is collected or confirm whether it's stored on Chinese servers. Taiwan's digital ministry also banned the use of DeepSeek by government departments, citing security concerns related to its Chinese origin. What led to DeepSeek's data being exposed online and what kind of information was affected? Cybersecurity firm Wiz discovered a significant amount of sensitive data from DeepSeek was left unsecured on the open internet due to an apparent misconfiguration. This data included over a million lines of data such as digital software keys and user chat logs. What is Senator Hawley's proposed bill regarding Chinese AI models, and what could be the consequences for individuals? Senator Josh Hawley has introduced the "Decoupling America's Artificial Intelligence Capabilities from China Act," which aims to criminalize the import, export, and collaboration on AI technology with China. Under the proposed law, knowingly downloading a Chinese AI model, such as DeepSeek, could lead to severe penalties, including up to 20 years in prison, a million-dollar fine, or both. The bill reflects growing concerns about national security and the potential for China to leverage AI for hostile purposes. How is Amazon being accused of tracking consumers, and what type of data are they allegedly collecting? Amazon is facing a class-action lawsuit accusing the company of secretly tracking consumers' movements through their cellphones via its Amazon Ads SDK, embedded within third-party apps. It's alleged that the SDK collects sensitive geolocation data without users' explicit consent, such as IP addresses, location, ISP, device info, and network performance metrics. This data is used to build a detailed picture of consumers' habits and preferences, raising privacy concerns about corporate surveillance. What restrictions are being placed on open-source contributions, and who is being affected? The US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctions are imposing restrictions on open-source contributions from sanctioned individuals and countries. Developers from nations such as Russia, Iran, and North Korea are facing challenges when contributing to open-source projects due to these sanctions. How is Cloudflare addressing image authenticity concerns, and what are the potential benefits? Cloudflare has implemented Content Credentials, a system based on C2PA standards, that embeds metadata into images to track their origin and modifications. This system helps distinguish between genuine and manipulated content. The benefits are significant, as Cloudflare's network handles approximately 20% of global internet traffic, greatly increasing the potential reach of the system. This helps create trust in digital images, and preserves the work of digital creators.

Shifting social classes, failing harvests, population booms, and economic busts will begin to fuel a runaway sensational media. As the newspapers and pamphlets hit the streets, stirring up fear and panic, pandemonium breaks out amongst the people who arm themselves with weapons and sheer determination to end the toxic "ancien régime."Support the show! Join the PatreonBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: biography.com "Louis XVI"history.com "French Revolution"history.com "Marie Antoinette"Encyclopedia Britannica "French Revolution"US Office of the Historian "The United States and the French Revolution"Chateau de VersaillesShoot me a message!

New digital platform for national electronic health records announced at Maynooth University Summer School

Maynooth University's Digital Health Summer School has announced the launch of an innovative digital platform hosting an extensive 'Living Lab' for secure, shared electronic health records, real-time communications, and the storage of medical assessments. Developed over a five-year period in collaboration with 50 Health Service Executive (HSE) clinicians and social care workers, the Digital Health Spine Living Lab is already supporting a community of more than 15,000 vulnerable people with complex care needs, in more than 180 distributed locations. Ireland is ranked at the lowest level of EU Digital Health Maturity, with a score of zero, coming in far behind the second last placed, currently Czech Republic at 47%, as measured by the percentage of citizens with access to their electronic health records. Professor Martin Curley, Director of the Digital Health Ecosystem at Maynooth University's Innovation Value Institute (IVI) said the platform is now ready for scaling as a national solution. "The 'Digital Health Spine Living Lab' gives clinical teams full 360-visibility into a patient's electronic patient records in real-time, allowing better care to be delivered in the right place and in the right time, fully aligned with the Sláintecare strategy. "This digital health solution whose development was led by clinicians, in response to very challenging health needs of patient cohorts such as the homeless, Roma and International Protection applicants is now ready for scaling as a national solution," Professor Curley said. "We are one of the few remaining countries with no centralised electronic health records. The more we delay the more people die prematurely. We are now ready to leapfrog to a new era of care with the announcement of this Digital platform. Because the solution is primarily open-sourced based, it is far more cost efficient and can be improved much more rapidly than similarcommercial solutions." In an address to the Summer School, the OECD's Head of Digital Health Eric Sutherland, identifies Ireland as having the lowest health digital and data maturity of the OECD countries. The HSE Social Inclusion Services has been piloting and operating an electronic health record and associated digital health services with clinicians and social workers, based on the Digital Health Spine model, to support people who are homeless, from the Roma community, from the Ukrainian refugee community as well as International Protection applicants, within the region of Dublin South, Kildare and West Wicklow. The Digital Health Spine (DHS) is modelled on the UK's NHS Spine, and can provide the architecture of digital health services and a platform to underpin a 21st century healthcare system in Ireland. At the core of the Spine is an individual electronic health record for every citizen in the country, implemented on the open source OpenEMR platform. This platform is certified by the US Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) and in use by many clinicians and in locations around the world. HSE Service Director of Social Inclusion clinical response teams in the region, Maxine Radcliffe, demonstrated the electronic records system to national and international health experts and clinicians attending the Digital Health Summer School. "It is unimaginable that in 2024, patients and clinicians in Ireland do not have access to electronic health records as a standard part of care. We have implemented the Response for Vulnerable People (RVP) solution which is providing effective clinical care for over 15,000 people with complex care needs," she said. Professor Colin Doherty, Head of the Trinity College Medical School and consultant at St James Hospital, said: "It's now abundantly clear that data saves lives. We urgently need to address the failure of this country to properly digitise our health system. No more excuses. No more delays. Let's just do it."

Today's guest is Dr. Shairi Turner, the Chief Health Officer of Crisis Text Line-- a global nonprofit organization providing free and confidential text-based mental health support and crisis intervention. Dr. Turner is a Stanford Alum, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine graduate and Harvard-trained internist and pediatrician with a Master of Public Health from the Harvard School of Public Health. As Chief Health Officer, she leads the organization's external policy, advocacy and partnership initiatives related to mental health. Dr. Turner truly understands the impact of trauma and has an extensive resume that includes over a decade of advocacy on juvenile justice, public health, disproportionate minority confinement, trauma histories of incarcerated women and the neurobiology of trauma. Prior to Crisis Text Line, Dr. Turner was the first Chief Medical Director of the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, served as Deputy Secretary for Health and Director of the Office of Minority Health for the Florida Department of Health, served as a faculty consultant for the National Center for Trauma Informed Care, and most recently was Project Co-Lead for the US Office of Women's Health-funded Trauma Informed Medicine eCase. In this episode, we discuss her earlier career experiences working with minority public health policy and juvenile justice, adverse childhood experiences and how those can impact teen mental health, the current teen mental health epidemic and its causes, trends in teen mental health based on Crisis Text Line's research on millions of teens, how Crisis Text Line works and how it has been able to help so many teens and college students, and what she'd like to see change in the next few years with mental health resources.

The attack on Israel makes me think of Eagle Pass, Texas.Israel has come under attack from Hamas. War is horrific, but we must also recognize that Hamas and Israel are not the same. Hamas is sponsored by Iran, who received 6 billion dollars from the Figurehead on 9/11 of 2023 and was also a subject of obsession for Barack Hussein Obama during his time in office . In addition to this, in August of this year, we learned that weapons that General “White Rage” left for the Taliban have found their way into the hands of Hamas. Hundreds of people have been killed by Hamas; women and children murdered. This is reminiscent of Eagle Pass, Texas and the situation at our southern border. We have to believe that our southern border is not being taken advantage of by Hamas, but the fact is that they are here. Why would they not be?What does God's Word say? 16 Bible Verses about God's Love For IsraelEpisode 1,134 Links:At least 100 dead as Hamas launches unprecedented attack on Israel, Netanyahu says nation is 'at war'; At least 40 were killed and hundreds wounded as Hamas terrorists launched rocket attacks and invaded Israel with gunsHere's what the US Office of Palestinian Affairs tweeted and then deletedMinutes later, the people who run Joe Biden released this on his behalfDeSantis's statement -- one of twoThis is MSNBC's response - AymanM on MSNBC … of COURSE he doesn't mention Iran Biden Admin Raised Concerns Palestinian Aid Would Boost Hamas.
