Ransomware has become a serious epidemic affecting businesses of all sizes, and protecting your company is more essential than ever before as the number of ransomware attacks continues to rise. A report from Cybersecurity Ventures projects that on average there will be a ransomware attack on a business every 14 seconds by the end of 2019 — up from a rate of one attack every 40 seconds in 2017.
As ransomware spreads, it continues to evolve and get more sophisticated — and more lucrative. In fact, the Cybersecurity Ventures report predicts that damages connected to ransomware attacks will cost $11.5 billion annually by 2019, more than double the $5 billion in ransomware damages estimated for 2017.
What does all this mean for small to medium-sized businesses? In order to protect your organization from cyber threats, you need to keep ransomware and cybersecurity top-of-mind and educate your employees about this destructive type of malware and the damage it can do to your business.
To help you address the growing threat of ransomware, we've taken a closer look at how ransomware works and the most common variants that are active today. We've also gathered our best advice on how to protect your business both proactively by taking precautions to avoid ransomware and reactively by being prepared to recover quickly and easily if you do fall victim to an attack.
What Is Ransomware?
Ransomware is malicious software that encrypts files, locks the computer, and retains control until the user pays a certain amount of money. Ransomware can appear in two forms — either by locking your screen with a full-screen image or webpage to prevent you from accessing your PC, or by encrypting your files so they can't be opened.
While each ransomware variant has its own twist, there are a few key components that most ransomware types follow:
Email-borne infection – Although some variants have been known to attack via drive-by download advertising, malicious websites, or peer-to-peer network file sharing, ransomware typically attacks through spoofed emails, and the end user is tricked into opening an attachment.3 It often arrives in zip files with enticingly common names, and the zip file contains an .exe, which downloads onto the target computer, adding a key to the Windows Registry, allowing it to run.
Covert communication – Once downloaded, the malware establishes communication with a command-and-control server. For example, CryptoLocker, which started the modern ransomware craze, relies on a domain generation algorithm and hops between new servers routinely to avoid detection.
Advanced encryption – Once the server connection is established, CryptoLocker generates a pair of encryption keys — one public, one private — using the huge RSA-2048 bit encryption algorithm and military-grade 256-bit AES encryption. Most ransomware variants use a 256-AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) key or a 2048-RSA key, but some even go as far as 4096-RSA.
Bitcoin ransom – After encryption is complete, the cybercriminals usually demand Bitcoin or some form of payment for the key to unencrypt infected files.4 Ransomware works quickly and quietly in the background before it unveils itself to users asking for ransom.
Tight deadline – A pop-up window usually tells the victim that important files have been encrypted and sets a time limit for payment before the private encryption key is destroyed and the files are lost forever.
The FBI wants businesses to take ransomware seriously. "Because of the global reach of cybercrime, no single organization, agency, or country can defend against it," the organization explained in a recent statement about the growing threat of ransomware.19
As an SMB, it is impossible to stop the ransomware epidemic. However, taking the right proactive and reactive measures can help you mitigate the likelihood of an attack for your business. No business vertical, large or small, is immune to ransomware attacks, but you can set your business up for success by following best practices and using the right tools to defend against it.

Reminds me of sister Kevin at sts Peter and Paul. She had massive forearms and a formidable moustache. If my hair was too long she'd pull it...hard.Which in turn reminds me of the super Cup.
You don't happen to have her number do ya mate, I quite fancy getting milked by her when watching those naked nuns with guns, needless to say there'll be lots of 'Shooting ' going on, before and after the match 😉😁You'll never w*nk alone !!
I think we'll see some changes tonight. It would be nice to win this super cup but I don't think it's a massive priority. We could see Fabinho at the back tonight maybe or some of the youngsters but I think he should prioritise the league before this. AdrianHoever. Matip. Fabinho. Larousi Lallana Ox. MilnerShaqiri. Origi. Mane.
All female officials for tonight's game, looking on the BBC website. Anyway send out a team to batter Chelsea is my humble opinion.
NB: Team no longer availableStart strong.Origi, Shaqiri, Gomez as subs.Think that team has more than enough to put Chelsea to the sword in 90 minutes.

I really hope this all female refereeing team do well and in any case I'm damned glad we have VAR now just in case they have a bit of a howler.BTW I actually have no problem with female referees as long as they are proven at this level but I'm not sure that these are, it all seems a bit woke and virtue signally to me.
f**k off with that team, this is an important piece of silverware not some pre season friendly ffs!

FATF expresses satisfaction over Pakistan's anti-terror measures
According to details, Pakistan has submitted a reply to the FATF briefing about the measures Pakistan took in the past four to five months to snub the terror financing in the country.
Minister for Economic Affairs Hammad Azhar told the media in Bangkok on Wednesday that the fifteen-member Pakistani delegation has held technical talks with the FATF team.
"We briefed the FATF team about the performance of Pakistan in the past four months to improve measures related to terror financing," Azhar told reporters.
The minister informed the media that the FATF group would now compose a report on Pakistan based on the briefing provided to them. This report would be the basis upon which the FATF will decide where to place on their financial watch-list.
Earlier on Monday, the FATF's Asia Pacific Group had scrutinised Pakistan's compliance report on supervision of regulatory regime and investigation against outfits and persons involved in offences of terror-financing.

Asthma Disparities: A Disproportionate Burden
By Alisa Smith
What disease do you think affects one in every five U.S. households, costs the U.S. $50 billion annually in medical expenses, accounts for 10.5 million missed school days every year, causes black children to be hospitalized at twice the rate of white children and to die at four times the rate of white children?
You're probably thinking: whatever it is, let's figure out a vaccine quickly.
It is asthma. Anyone can have asthma, but it impacts some more severely than others. Significant disparities, or differences, in asthma exist in racial and ethnic groups. Children from minority groups and children in low-income families are at greater risk for having the disease and once they have it, they are at greater risk of having it more severely.
While we don't yet have a vaccine or know how to prevent someone from getting asthma, we do have a clear understanding of how to control it. It's a balancing act: controlling exposure to the things indoors and outdoors that trigger asthma attacks and getting the right medicine and knowing how to take it.
Building awareness is one piece of the nation's asthma control puzzle. EPA is working hard on many levels to help individuals and communities gain control of asthma. Our website has evidence-based resources that assist kids, parents, caregivers, older adults, child care programs, schools, healthcare providers, health insurers, and community groups. Each year, over one million people visit our companion website NoAttacks.org to download easy to read information in English and Spanish.
Another piece of the asthma control puzzle focuses on closing the gap in disparities. Beginning over ten years ago, EPA saw effective work was being done in communities across the country to improve outcomes for kids most severely impacted by asthma. To help health practitioners and asthma programs share their best practices and top questions with one another, EPA launched AsthmaCommunityNetwork.org. This site contains the System for Delivering High-Quality Asthma Care and hundreds of effective print and multimedia resources from programs across the country. Each year EPA honors exceptional health plans, health care providers and communities in action with the National Environmental Leadership Award in Asthma Management as a way to celebrate the important contribution these programs are making to close the gap in asthma disparities. To hear from the 2012 Award winners about their best-in-class programs, register for EPA's live webinar on Wednesday, May 30, 2012, from 1–2 p.m. EDT.

Whether you need to clean or pre-treat small surfaces or large areas, or need to work with one or two lances at the same time, the WIWA HIGH PRESSURE CLEANER covers a wide range of applications.
Its optimal field of use is not just limited to corrosion protection, but it also includes the oil and gas industry, food industry, shipping, building and roof sanitation as well as the cleaning of buildings.
With the combination of high pressure and finest atomization as well as appropriate additives not only rust, but also greases, oils and resins can be removed most effectively. Difficult to access areas, such as profiles, angular structures as well as pipes of most different diameters can now be easily cleaned with the WIWA HIGH PRESSURE CLEANER equipped with the unique swivel nozzle.
The benefits are quite obvious: The frequently increased material costs associated with corrosion protection, which are caused by the spraying material being polluted by rust particles falling down while preparing the area by means of shot blasting, can be considerably reduced by using the WIWA HIGH PRESSURE CLEANER, because the preceding cleaning enables the multiple use of the blasting material.
The handy and mobile WIWA HIGH PRESSURE CLEANER also convinces on the high seas. With its low weight and easy handling the WIWA HIGH PRESSURE CLEANER eases cleaning and repair work on and under deck. Since the WIWA HIGH PRESSURE CLEANER in all its equipment stages obviously is fully explosion protected, it can also be used in the offshore industry.

You're at work. You look at your cell phone. You see the blinking light. What do you do? Many of you stop whatever you are working on to check it out because it might be important. Technology has made communication a breeze because we are connected in multiple ways. But how much is our productivity affected because we are so connected? Chad Brooks, a senior writer for Business News Daily published an article called
"10 Distractions That Kill Workplace Productivity".
(click here to read the article)
In the article, he says the top 5 productivity killers are cellphones/texting, the internet, gossip, social media and email. It's no small wonder that 4 out of the top 5 are linked to the blinking light on your cell phone. Unless you are gossiping on-line, then you would be 5 for 5.
Here's how it happens. You see the blinking light on your phone. A quick browse of your Facebook news feed will show a funny meme or video. You promise yourself that you will look at it, maybe comment or share it, and then go right back to work. Well, the next thing you know, you have lost an hour because of that blinking light. If this sounds like you, I want to give you three ways that you can tame the blinking light and improve your productivity:
Designate some off-line time
For many of us, the first thing we do after we turn off our alarm clock is to check our email, social news feeds and text messages. I set aside 3 one-hour blocks each workday where I am disconnected. That way I can focus on the task in front of me with minimal interruption. I get so much work done during those one- hour blocks.
Manage your social news feed.
If you are in several Facebook groups, connect to them through the Facebook Groups App. Use the Pulse App to read articles in LinkedIn and use the "List" feature to manage your Twitter feed. That way you can scan the feeds that are relevant to your work day and look at the funny stuff later.
Tame the Text Messages
Remember, text messages and emails are passive forms of communications. Everything doesn't require an immediate response. People can send you messages when it's convenient for them and you should respond when it's convenient for you. Most of my clients communicate with me by email or text. But if they have an emergency, they will generally pick up the phone and call me.
Now, there are a few more things that you can do to tame the blinking light but they should only be used in extreme circumstances. If you absolutely, positively can't ignore the blinking light, then mute your phone and turn it over so you can't see it. Also, turn off your email notifications on your computer. Just make sure you unmute your phone and turn on your notifications at the end of off-line time. Responding to those messages can be the last item on your agenda for the day. Otherwise, you may end up with several hundred email and dozens of notifications on your social media sites. Ask me how I know.

This morning I read Martha Beck's thoughts on pain and healing and they resonated with me deeply Soullies. So I'm sharing with you; Martha reminded me that pain is as important a part of our live's journey as joy and happiness are. Her thoughts remind me a lot of the words of a very wise teacher of mine. He once counselled me that if nothing else the pain we experience is our teacher. It enables us great compassion for all who cross our paths, allowing us great compassion and insight, connecting us to them and in so doing, connecting us to the circle of live, or universe. Our pain affirms our growth… and that of others. This is because the pain is itself a process, not an 'end' point. I love that!!! I hope it means something to you too, and here is what Martha has to say on the whole thing:
"Emotional discomfort, when accepted, rises, crests and falls in a series of waves. Each wave washes a part of us away… Out goes naiveté, in comes wisdom; out goes anger, in comes discernment; out goes despair, in comes kindness. No one would call it easy, but the rhythm of emotional pain that we learn to tolerate is natural, constructive and expansive. . . . The pain leaves you healthier than it found you." – Martha N. Beck
Amber | www.intothesoul.com
Martha Beck is an American sociologist, life coach, best-selling author, and speaker who specializes in helping individuals and groups achieve personal and professional goals. She holds a bachelor's degree in East Asian Studies and master's and Ph.D. degrees in sociology, both from Harvard University. Beck is the daughter of deceased LDS Church scholar and apologist, Hugh Nibley. She received national attention after publication in 2005 of her best-seller, Leaving the Saints: How I Lost the Mormons and Found My Faith in which she recounts her experiences of surviving sexual abuse. In addition to authoring several books, Beck is a columnist for O, The Oprah Magazine.

Etihad Airways plans to be a carbon neutral organisation by 2050 and aims to halve its net carbon emission levels by 2035.
The airline plans to achieve its zero carbon emissions though a combination of initiatives, collaborations and new programmes designed.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) predicts that the number of passenger journeys will more than double within 20 years, from 4.5 billion in 2019 to an estimated 9 billion by the late 2030s.
Tony Douglas, CEO of Etihad Aviation Group, said that the company will take an "active role in reducing the impact of aviation on the environment" through its various initiatives.
Mr Douglas said the entire air transport industry, from airlines and suppliers to airspace providers, was responsible for helping to reduce aviation's emissions.
"Airlines have attracted significant scrutiny in the global discussion of the environment, and our collective challenge as a fast-growing industry is to deliver meaningful initiatives which can quickly help to contain and reduce carbon emissions," he said.
Etihad's fleet strategy will be important to its sustainability goals and the airline will continue to use Boeing 787 Dreamliners, Airbus A350-1000s, Boeing 777-9s and Airbus A321neos. The next Dreamliner is due to arrive next week.
Etihad will also continue to use its Greenliner Programme as a 'test bed' for sustainable products and practices.
And it will invest in the development of sustainable aviation fuels including biofuel developed and refined in Abu Dhabi from saltwater-tolerant plants.

text: Sea Dog #1 Posted October 24, 2019 I've have been wondering whats the best practice for wearing the right kind of shoes at the beach and dealing with the sand that gets into them. Example on our last cruise. I wore water shoes which I like because I have sensitive feet. But after doing a lot of walking in them to or from the ship they hurt my feet and gave me a blister. I thought about bringing an extra pair of flip flops or something else and change into the water shoes when I arrive at the beach but there is always a lot of sand that gets in the way. When we get back to the cruise ship I practically need to take my shoes off before I get into the cabin and then wash the sand off in the shower. I am curious what others do in wearing shoes that are good for doing a lot of walking and beach shoes such as water shoes or sandals. Tips???? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

About the Menoquil
- These products work together to help improve menopause symptoms: weight gain, lack of sex drive, sleeplessness, dull skin, hot flushes, night sweats, irritability, and lack of sleep.
- Menoquil and Progesteril provide a re-balancing effect to your hormones, thereby restoring vital functions that these hormones control and regulate to improve multiple menopause symptoms.
- Delivers protective antioxidants that stop organ deterioration.
Meno Relief System Plus:
- Comes with our exclusive 60 day guarantee
- Comes with FREE SHIPPING! (U.S. Domestic Orders Only)
- Normally $129.99 for the system
Usage of Menoquil
- According to the product's label, consume two tablets of Menoquil at least twice every day, and track your progress. A bottle of Menoquil contains 120 tablets of active menopause supplements.
Usage of Progesteril
- Massage your skin with the non-oily cream of Progesteril to balance your hormone levels.
Ingredients of Menoquil
- Menthol: Dong Quai is a local herb with potent extracts that restore hormonal balance and normal levels of sex drive in women. It also helps minimize mood swings. More so, the extract helps women with natural lubrication, preventing vaginal dryness.
- Camphor oil: Soy Isoflavones are natural sources of plant-based (phytoestrogen) hormones. The extract increases cognitive function, calms the mind, and relaxes the body muscles without side effects.
- Eucalyptus oil: Wild yam (Dioscorea Villosa) root extract increases the level of progesterone and controls unwanted menopausal conditions. Plant-based progesterone from wild yam root provides fast relief for estrogen dominance.
- Isopropyl alcohol: Green tea extracts have been scientifically proven to contain caffeine and vitamins. These extracts work by reducing hot flashes, irritability, mood swings, and anxiety.
- Cnidium Monnieri: Cnidium Monnieri contains powerful compounds with antioxidant properties. The herbal extract raises your sex drive (libido) and supports the formation of bone density. It also prevents the development of osteoclast that weakens the bone mass.
- Black cohosh: Black cohosh is a special plant with potent extracts that tackle menopausal health issues. Apart from menopause, women with osteoporosis, painful menstruation, and PMS can get fast relief from this ingredient.
Ingredients of Progesteril
- Plant sterols: Plant sterols are naturally-occurring compounds that are found in soy. The extract has phytonutrients, and cholesterol-reducing properties; sterols are active ingredients in Progesteril cream. Soy extracts relieve menopausal symptoms in women and protect patients with osteoporosis from having light bone density.
- Glycine Soja (soybean): Glycine Soja (soybean) secretes potent extracts that preserve bone density and replenish estrogen deficiencies. More so, during menopause, the phytoestrogens (a type of phytonutrient) in this soybean ingredient control estrogen dominance and hormonal balance. Menopausal women are more at risk of hormonal imbalance; this ingredient eases hot flashes and weight gain during this period.
- Dioscorea Villosa: Dioscorea Villosa (wild yam) root extract provides fast relief from menopausal conditions. At the middle-age of fifty to sixty, women experience symptoms of menopause like night sweats, insomnia, hot flashes, and irritability. It's the dominance of estrogen that results in the unwanted symptoms of menopause. There'll be an estrogen and progesterone balance after consuming the rich concentration of plant-based progesterone in wild yam.
- Polysorbate-60Polysorbate-60, ethyl-hexyl-glycerin, Aqua (purified water), Cyclopentasiloxane, hyaluronic acid, Squalane, Dimethicone, Phenoxyethanol, Cetearyl, and Oleyl alcohol are also ingredients in Progesteril.

So, you've bought yourself an orchid, now what? Your new phalaenopsis, or moth, orchid looks more like something you'd find in an exotic greenhouse rather than growing next to your kitchen sink. However, despite their elegant, delicate appearance, these orchids are actually quite easy to care for, even for those of us with a black thumb. Follow our tips to keep your moth orchid happy and healthy in your home:
Overwatering is probably the most common cause of early demise for indoor orchids. Unlike other houseplants, constant wetness will cause the roots of your orchid to rot and the entire plant to slowly die. Instead of watering your orchid on a set schedule, water based on the plant's needs.
But how do you know when your orchid needs water? That depends on the medium it is planted in. The most common mediums for moth orchids are either moss or bark. If your orchid is planted in moss, you'll know it's time to water when you can stick your finger an inch into the moss and it comes up dry. It will generally take between two to three weeks for the moss to get to this point. Conversely, orchids planted in bark will typically dry out in about 7 to 10 days.
When it's time to water, place your orchid, pot and all, into your kitchen sink. Turn the tap on to let out a steady stream of room temperature water. Let the water run through the moss or bark for about 60 seconds and let drain in the sink for a couple of minutes. If any water gets on the leaf base or stem, dry it off gently with a paper towel. Make sure, whatever your orchid is potted in, that the water is able to drain out from the bottom and doesn't sit around and rot those roots.
As important as it is to properly water your orchid, making sure it gets the proper light is equally as crucial. Your orchid wants to soak up just the right amount of sunlight without getting too hot. Especially in the sweltering Lowcountry summers, a west or south-facing window will likely let in too much heat and fry your delicate orchid. Instead, find a nice table or sill by an east facing window. If east facing windows are in short supply in your home, a southern facing window will suffice with a sheer curtain to help filter the light.
The normally olive green leaves of your moth orchid will help let you know if it's getting the correct amount of light by changing color. Dark green leaves mean your plant needs some more rays. Red-tinted leaves are a sign your orchid might be getting a bit of sunburn.
Like us humans, orchids need a balanced diet in order to thrive. Even if you're orchid has proper lighting and water, it will still lack all the nutrients it needs to do well. Feed your moth orchid a weak mixture of half orchid fertilizer, half water every one to two months. And, just like a normal watering, make sure you allow to fertilizer mixture to drain properly from the moss or bark your orchid is planted in.
Believe it or not, if you've followed to steps above, your orchid will still be happy and healthy after it finishes blooming! Even after the flowers on your moth orchid wilt, you can make sure they come back again the next year by pruning the spike (main stem) of the plant. Here is a very helpful video from the experts at American Orchid Society that explains where you should cut the spike on your orchid. Once cut, continue caring for your orchid as listed above for the rest of the year and wait for it's next blooms come late winter!
Congratulations, you're now an orchid-growing expert! Stop by the Charleston Flower Market to pick up your moth orchid and enjoy this gorgeous plants elegant flowers for years to come!

Chapter 15 — 'No battle plan survives contact with the enemy… ' ####### CHAPTER 15
Before sending his entire force into unknown conditions, Americon had sent Captain Marvel and Radar on a quick recon mission which had verified that BattleWorld actually was near where Thad had estimated it would be, deep within the asteroid belt. With his radar vision, Pep was able to make out a swarm of bee-like fliers buzzing around the giant spaceship, dragging asteroids to the surface, where they were broken up and transported to the damaged areas by an army of ant-like robots.
There were still a lot of unanswered questions about BattleWorld, but Americon was starting to fit the known facts into a pattern. Sometimes people wondered how Americon, without any super powers, had managed to become such a successful hero — and why his super powered teammates were willing to accept his leadership without question. But the heroes all understood that Icon's almost mystical intuition in matters of battle and combat, and his unmatched ability to understand his opponents were powers as potent as any of their own.
BattleWorld was a study in contradictions. Its builders had used highly advanced technology, but BattleWorld had made no attempt to communicate with Earth's civilization. The mighty space dreadnought employed magic, but that magic was controlled by technology. It had a virtually impenetrable invisible barrier covering at least part of it, yet there were asteroid craters on the surface. It clearly had self-repair capability, but why hadn't the craters been repaired before? It had attacked twice without warning, and both attacks had used exactly the same weapons and tactics. Did it not know any other tactics? Did it have any other weapons?
It was Americon's opinion that BattleWorld was ancient and had originated far away, probably in another galaxy. If there had ever been a live crew, they had been dead for perhaps millions of years. Whatever was controlling it now, whether artificial intelligence, computer, robot, or (he smiled to himself) droid, might be hostile and dangerous, but it wasn't designed for battle.
The unrepaired meteor craters suggested that the controlling intelligence of BattleWorld had been hoarding its resources — which suggested that its own resources were nearly exhausted. But now that it was in a region of plentiful raw materials, the asteroid belt, and near to a source of energy, the sun — and facing a dangerous enemy, that controlling intelligence had decided it was a good time for repairs.
The barrier still remained a puzzle. Americon had two theories — either it took a lot of power to operate and it wasn't deployed unless there was urgent need — such as an attack from space — or, it only covered a limited area, which suggested that it protected something important. He had developed the Phase one of his plan to determine if either of these theories was correct.
Phase one consisted of long range bombardment from space. Three teams of heroes were spread evenly around BattleWorld. Their job it was to find asteroids and then throw them at the super space dreadnought. They had two objectives: to either overwhelm the barrier or discover its edges, and to provide a distraction for the two teams that were going to land on BattleWorld. Unless BattleWorld came up with some new tactics, Americon expected Phase one to be pretty boring.
Each rock throwing team had one member whose job it was to locate asteroids (Radar, Sandy, Spy Smasher, using instruments in the Phoenix), one 'team member' to protect the locater and help him/her move though space (Bulletwoman, Bulletman and the Phoenix itself). The other nine heroes in the rock throwing team were three 'full time' Marvels, all five 'Part Time' Marvels and Mary Thunder. Three of these were assigned to each team.
The initial landing teams consisted of everyone else who wasn't already assigned, minus the four heroes who were still out near the orbit of Mars. Americon considered them for a second — he hoped they would rescue Thunderman, who was one of his best friends — and then he wrenched his mind back to the scene at hand.
Because BattleWorld and its swarm of bees seemed to be ignoring his arrayed forces (yet another piece for his puzzle), Americon gave the rock throwing teams an extra hour to gather ammunition. He couldn't afford to wait too long, though, as the army of ants and the swarm of bees were making repairs faster than he would have believed possible. Still, their activity gave him an idea for his teams to reach the surface without being detected.
The bees were piling the captured asteroids at collection points, where they remained until the ants broke them up and carried the materials to repair sites. If his teams could be disguised as asteroids, BattleWorld's own worker bees might be fooled into providing a safe ride to the surface. First, though, Americon made darn sure that the rock throwing teams would not target the asteroid collection points on BattleWorld's surface!
Captain Marvel, Captain Thunder and Sunbeam quickly collected two large asteroids, which they hollowed out. Sivana's rocket, with the 'command' team inside, snuggled into one, while Sunbeam lined the other with a solid light capsule enclosing the 'assault' team. The two Captains nudged the 'Trojan Asteroids' into orbits that would carry them near the swarm of bees, and then pulled concealing plugs into place, joining their respective teams.
The bombardments were scheduled to begin once both Trojan Asteroids had been deposited on the surface. It was a spooky wait, inside a pitch black ball of ancient rock, but the presence of Captain Marvel in one group and Captain Thunder in the other helped the others retain their composures. If anything went wrong, they had two of the mightiest warriors in two universes to rally around!
Finally the nerve-wracking wait was over! A couple of the worker bees grabbed each asteroid, shaking up the heroes hiding inside, and dragged them down to a collection pile. Immediately after their rough but survivable landing, it started raining rocks on the surface of BattleWorld.
BattleWorld had active automatic meteor defenses, and those sprang into life. Smaller energy cannons blasted away, and swarms of small missiles were released. In addition, the bees intercepted some of the incoming asteroids and tried to capture them.
But the meteor defenses had never been intended to stop hundreds of asteroids — the builders had assumed that the pilots would be smart enough to steer clear of dense asteroid fields, and the automatic defenses had been designed to stop the occasional asteroid that they happened to encounter in open space. The automatic defense did what it could, but it was quickly overwhelmed, and didn't even manage to target most of the asteroids in the first wave. Traveling at about a quarter of the speed of light after having been thrown by 'pitchers' who had both super strength and super speed, they impacted the surface like so many atomic bombs!
By observing which asteroids were destroyed by smashing into the invisible barrier, the observers in the bombardment teams were able to determine that the invisible barrier covered only a small part of the surface — a disk with an area about the size of Rhode Island.
Phase one shifted smoothly into Phase 2. All of the heroes concentrated their bombardment on the barrier, hopeful that the design flaw revealed by Thunderman had not yet been fixed. Americon was sure that the controlling intelligence wouldn't have the knowledge or creativity to fix the problem, and he was right.
None of the individual asteroid impacts was as powerful as the Thunderman collision event. The barrier could easily have handle any single asteroid impact, and in fact, it probably could have safely dissipated the energy of a dozen or so simultaneous impact events But each of eight Marvels and one Thunder were throwing two large asteroids every second, and even that incredibly resilient barrier couldn't dissipate energy quickly enough. Instead, the barrier absorbed most of that energy like a gigantic capacitor.
Finally, like an overloaded capacitor, it discharged violently in an unfathomable burst of energy — inside the barrier, aimed at the surface of BattleWorld. Instantly, that burst tore entirely through planet-sized spaceship, blasting out the other side and leaving a perfectly cylindrical hole, over 35 miles in diameter, with walls smoother than glass. Nothing material had survived, or even could have survived in that raging vortex of energy. It was lucky this pulse of energy was headed for the stars, rather than toward Earth!
Although he hadn't expected such a tremendously powerful blast, Americon had hoped that the 'control room' of BattleWorld was somewhere under the barrier, and that destroying the control room might shut BattleWorld down, entirely and instantly. But that blast had exactly the opposite effect, and at that instant, like so many others before it, Americon's battle plan failed to survive contact with the enemy!
Instead, it was the final contact with the enemy that finally destroyed Americon's battle plan.
Chapter 16 — Rock Throwing Team one — The Super Babes!
Though the attacking force didn't know for certain, BattleWorld was indeed controlled by a giant computer. Every 'bee', every 'ant', every automated weapon, every maintenance machine — all were linked to the controlling computer, which gave orders to each individual unit.
The controlling computer had been located pretty much where Americon had expected it to be, directly under the barrier and about 200 miles below the surface. It wasn't there any longer! However, the results of vaporizing the controlling computer were unexpected — and very unfortunate.
Every automaton aboard BattleWorld, from the bees to the ants to the hall sweepers to the electronic repair 'bots to the engine maintenance robots — and thousands of other types, each and every one — were designed to serve dual purposes. Asteroid mining, engine repair, sweeping, cleaning sewers, all of these were secondary functions, so that the bots would be useful between battles. When the controlling computer stopped communicating, each BattleWorld bot instantly reverted to its primary function: Destruction of the enemy!
Thousands of 'bees', which had previously ignored them, swarmed toward the rock-throwing teams. They barely had time to radio a warning to the surface teams before they were engulfed in combat.
Rock Throwing Team one consisted of Mary Marvel, Bulletwoman, Posh Mary, Valley Mary and Sandy. When he had been selecting team members, Mary Marvel had privately suggested to Americon that he should put Posh Mary and Valley Mary on an all-female team, because she had noticed those two in particular tended to get distracted in the presence of some of the male heroes. And in turn, distracted those same heroes. As soon as the team was complete, Posh and Valley had suggested the code name 'Super Babes'. Mary Marvel and Sandy had hated the name and immediately suggested others. To their surprise, Bulletwoman had cast the deciding vote — in favor of 'Super Babes'. They didn't understand until they did a radio check, and Sue's call sign was revealed as 'Babe 1'. Mary Marvel had almost choked when she realized that as team commander, her call sign was 'Babe Leader', but after a while it started to grow on her.
Right now, the Super Babes were certainly a center of attention! But not quite the kind of attention any babe wanted! Space around them seemed to be jammed solid with flying machines of all shapes and sizes, all bent on their destruction. They were the target of missiles, rays, beams and bullets. All three Marys kicked into high gear and flashed around and around their two teammates, blocking the incoming rays and shattering the projectiles.
No matter how fast they moved, though, there were too many enemies and their protective sphere was slowly shrinking. Within seconds, their protective armor had been shredded. Fortunately so far, nothing had shot at them with a magic lightning beam, but they were now alarmingly vulnerable.
Bulletwoman, as strong and as fast as she was, would have just been in the way if she had tried to help the Marys. If she was going to help, she would have to think their way out of this mess! "Sandy, I need your help! Can your magic pull a big asteroid towards us?"
"That's a great idea! It will smash into them from behind. I might be able to pull in three or four."
"That's not exactly what I had in mind, but do it! Make them come as fast as you can and bring the biggest one right to us. When the others are near the enemy, can you make them explode?"
She had her answer almost before she finished speaking. Sandy stretched both hands above her head and then, keeping them fully extended, swept them down to her sides. A few seconds later, she snapped her fingers on both hands, and somewhere within the crowd of machines, two large asteroids exploded, destroying or damaging hundreds of killer fliers. She snapped them again, and two more asteroids exploded. Directly in front of them, an asteroid the size of an ocean liner punched through the massed enemy fighting machines. Bulletwoman and Sandy slipped out of the protective Babe-o-sphere and flew toward the asteroid at top speed, motioning the Marys to follow.
"Sandy, can you get my gravity helmet out from under my armor without killing me? Don't tell me, just do it if you can." Her head suddenly felt strange — and her gravity helmet was in her hands. She smashed a hole into the surface of the asteroid, and jammed her helmet into it. She had set it to do something she and Bulletman had discussed, but never tried.
Earlier, while working the Jiffy Machine to make titanium armor for everyone except the Marvels and Thunders, Bulletman and Spy Smasher had further customized the armor design, adding miniature ion rockets, so even those heroes who could not normally fly under their own power were able to move. So Bulletwoman, Babe 1, could still fly, even without her gravity helmet.
Sue and Sandy blasted away from the asteroid at top speed, motioning for the Marys to join them. Without their armor, the Marys had no way to communicate in airless space, so they didn't know exactly what was happening. But Mary Marvel sensed her best friend's urgency, and she motioned to her comrades, then grabbed Sandy and flew away from the asteroid at top speed. Valley Mary grabbed Sue, and she and Posh followed.
Sue realized that their enemies had clear shots at them from behind, so she called on Sandy one more time. "Sandy, I need you again! Can you protect us while we escape?"
The Super Babes were immediately surrounded by a magical shield, and the three Marys zoomed away from the asteroid and BattleWorld at top speed. Sue had set her gravity helmet to amplify the asteroid's gravity to incredible levels, and the machines near the asteroid were suddenly wrenched violently from the sky and smashed to the surface! They were squished flat, and those machines further away were now being captured by the hyper gravity of the asteroid. The Super Babes got away, but thousands of war machines were dragged down to the asteroid and destroyed.
"Babe one to all units!" Bulletman winced when he heard this. If they lived through this, he was going to have to listen to her crow about it for months. She quickly filled all her teammates in and warned them to stay away from that asteroid!

KARACHI: The State Bank on Friday kept its policy rate unchanged at 10 per cent for the next two months, after sensing the situation as relatively stable, with a moderate inflationary trend. However, the monetary policy announced carried some serious concerns over government borrowing from the central bank, possible shortfall in tax revenues, recurrence of energy sector circular debt, and delays in budgeted foreign inflows.
Unveiling the policy at a press conference, State Bank Governor Yaseen Anwar said the moderate risk of demand-driven inflation with low international commodity prices has neutralised to some extent the direct impact of exchange rate volatility on CPI inflation.
"The SBP has accordingly revised its inflation projection downward."
The SBP expects average CPI inflation for FY14 to fall between 10 to 11pc, which would be higher than the target of 8pc.
He said considerable financial inflows are expected during the second half of fiscal year 2014 which includes overdue proceeds from the privatisation of PTCL, floatation of euro bonds in the international market, and additional flows from bilateral and multilateral sources under the new IMF programme.
He said net financing received from the IMF during the first half of fiscal year 2014 was negative $925.2 million despite receiving $1101m under the new IMF programme.
"There is no room for complacency and considerable effort is required to bring a sustainable improvement in the outlook of external accounts," said the SBP Governor.
He said significant tax, expenditure and debt management reforms are required.
"A persistently high fiscal deficit has already resulted in accumulation of short term domestic debt at a very rapid pace; 27pc on average during the last three fiscal years."
During the first five months of the current fiscal year, private businesses have borrowed Rs161bn, of which Rs38bn is for fixed investment, compared to Rs16bn in the corresponding period of last year.
Substantial credit uptake by sectors, such as textiles, electricity, gas, and water and commerce and trade has been observed.
In reply to a question, he said the State Bank has been working with the stock market people on the plan to launch treasury bills, bonds and sukuk for the trading. He said by the end of this month trading of t-bills will be finalised.
The government had announced to sell t-bills, PIBs and Sukuk in the equity market.
In reply to another question, he revealed that the currency swap agreement with China was a great help to meet the challenge of serious shortage of foreign exchange reserves.
The governor, who himself negotiated and finalised agreement with China, said at the crucial moment of low reserves, the currency swap was utilised up to $1.5bn, which was the highest limit.
He said more swap agreements are being negotiated with several countries.
The governor also said the foreign banks were interested to come in Pakistan while few banks have approached to invest in the banking industry of the country.

1. 英語で日本語を教える(構文の違いを実感する)
2. 英語と日本語の丁寧さの違いを実感する
3. 自分の失敗談で会話を盛り上げるための参考
4. 日本語の季節感を話そう
1. 英語で日本語を教える(構文の違いを実感する)
I have a question about politeness. Yeah I know how it works, but my japanese speech is far from perfect. (By perfect, I mean fluent.) So I talk to myself in Japanese. (I would talk to others, but I'm shy, and my vocab in japanese is very small. (aw man))
So one day, I was tryna say "I'd wanted zarusoba, but..." but instead I said, 「欲しいでした笊そば、けど
Answer A: (外国人の説明で、変なところもありますし、参考になるのもあります。)
both 欲しいでした and 欲しかったでした are completely incorrect and can never be used. I have a feeling that a native speaker would actually be completely confused if you said this.
Another thing is that your sentence structure is backwards. The subject of the sentence is ざるそば, so ざるそば should come first in the sentence.
Something like「ざるそばが欲しかったですけど」
If you wanted to use 欲しい first, you would need a の, like 「欲しかったのはざるそばでしたけど」.
Answer B: (私の説明です)
You may say to a waitress when something else comes; "I am supposed to have ordered Zarusoba." ざるそばを頼(たの)んだはずですが・・・
However, when you did not complain and started eating it, your friend may ask, "you ordered something else, didn't you?"
You may say, "I actually wanted Zarusoba but this is OK."
Further question:
Is "見せないでくれます" just as OK as "見せてくれません"?
Answer A: (外国人の説明です。おかしなところはどこでしょう?)
Although 見せないでくれます and 見せてくれません are both correct sentences, they do not mean the same thing. You can't use them interchangeably.
「見せないでくれます」 means "He's going to do me a favor and not show it." Meaning, in this situation you don't want him/her/them to show whatever it is, and he/she/them are going to comply with your wishes.
「見せてくれません」 means something like "(I want him to, and yet) He won't show me!" In this situation, you want to see whatever it is, but he/she/they are not going to show it.
This is because the くれる verb shows that a favor is being done for you. So, if it's negative then a favor is not being done for you.
Answer B: (私の説明です)
見せないでくれます does not seem a correct sentence. I can't think of any situation this can be used. 見せてくれません or 見せてくれない(のです)are both used for "he did not (or does not) let me see it."
Another confusing usage;「見せてくれません?」is a request, casually and very often used for "will you show it to me?" or "Let me see it."
2. 英語と日本語の丁寧さの違いを実感する
Living in America, there's not much of a difference in politeness levels whether you're speaking to your friends or to your teacher, unless the circumstances suggest otherwise.
For example:
Approaching your friend - "What're you doing?"
Asking your teacher a question - "So, what're we doing in class today?"
With my limited resources and no contact to a person who genuinely speaks Japanese, it's hard for me to imagine a world outside TV shows, comics, and songs, where people don't exactly use "appropriate" language. I want to talk to someone and know that I'm speaking to them correctly (politeness-wise). Could someone help me out?
"I need a book" - probably only used with people you've known for a LONG time?
"I need a book" - used to speak with anybody you don't know well?
There's a ton I don't know about this topic, and if I want to travel to Japan someday it's absolutely necessary. Please add any information you have.
Answer: (私の説明です)
Some thought about politeness and impoliteness;
In comic or TV you may have encountered the word "頭(あたま)にくる or 頭にきた). The close expression in English may be "pissed off", which polite girls may not use, right?
Japanese girls use this often among their friends but seldom use to elders or people they are not intimate with.
Instead, they use "腹が立つ(はらがたつ)", which has the same meaning.
Among friends they say either "彼(かれ)には、腹が立つ" (rather polite) or "彼は頭にくる。" (it is not polite but you may use it because you know that you are not taken as an indecent person.)
Politeness or impoliteness has something to do with how other people see the usage of words, decent or indecent.
"頭にくる"expression did not exist 30 years ago but became so common to show real anger. I admire the inventor but it is not polite word anyway, strictly speaking.
New words always come and go.
You may be familiar with the expression; "チョーかわいい". チョー comes from 超(ちょう): super or ultra, thus its meaning is "very, very, very lovely".
This expression seems to have been invented by some one, a high school girl somewhere ten years or so ago, and has spread all over Japan very quickly.
Among high school students at first, then both downward to junior high and primary school kids and upward to high teens and some adults. Still surviving but this expression is not as common as before.
Please be careful that some expressions you find in comic or other things may be just temporal. If you use it without knowing outdated, it sounds odd to local people.
As to your specific question; 本がいる and 本がいます
本がいる is OK butいりますis correct for いますin grammar. But this example has nothing to do with politeness or impoliteness. It simply means some one thinks some thing in mind.
But, the situation changes when your teacher asks; "is there any one who needs this book?".
If you reply "その本が必要だ or その本がいる"、it is impolite. You had better say;その本が要ります or その本が必要です。
It is not wrong to answer that way, however, it is much more natural to say, 私がいただきたいです(very polite) or 私が欲(ほ)しいです(polite). (Both I want to have it)
Without です、it sounds blunt and odd.
I put ね because I know your age from your HP and I am much older. Unless I know it, I will write がんばってください。(polite)
がんばってね is not impolite at all but kind of expression for elders to care about the younger in this case.
Reply and further question:
Oh yes, sorry about my mistake there! When いる has many different meanings, for some reason I got the conjugating mixed up with the いる that means to exist. Thanks for catching that!
So, would a word like ちょっと in a phrase like 「ちょっといいですか?」 be okay for someone my age to say to you (if I needed to talk to you in private, for example)? Or is there a more polite phrase that could convey the same meaning?
I think that might be the only example I can think of for now. If I have a more questions, I'll post them later.
Answer: (私の説明です)
That is OK in private even to the elder, only if you know them well.
Among friends about same age,「ちょっといい?」is more common.
「ちょっとよろしいでしょうか?」is polite to use in the office or elsewhere including
your school teacher.

God is saying that it is time to get unbusy for him. And what unbusy means is to sit down and be still so that God can reveal some things unto you. Some are too busy to listen and adhere. Coherence is key. It's like trying to talk to someone who's busy watching tv or whatever. They may hear you but they are not listening to you until they actually put all of their focus on you. It's the same concept. Let us reshift our focus back to the voice of the Lord. Communication goes both ways.
Peace, be still.

I had a very difficult time at Mass today. As we prayed for the dead, my Mother (still living) came to mind, and I know that all too soon, it will be her name read out of that book.
I couldn't shake the feeling that we won't have her around for very long, and it was all I could do to keep from crying. Even though we should rejoice when a soul goes Home, we here on earth who are left behind sometimes find the agony of loss hard to bear. And for some reason, I am in complete dread of losing my mother, even though I know it must happen.
Some of that dread comes from also knowing that I will have to stand up to my large extended family in order that Mom will be honored properly, and that funeral is within the norms (ie that Lutheran family members won't be receiving Holy Communion, that there won't be an extended Litany of Canonization, poetry, etc....) that typically takes place at our family's funerals. Mom lives a quiet life of everyday holiness, and although she's no apologist, she knows what's proper and what honors Our Lord; and I can't bear the thought of liturgical abuse and sacrilege at her funeral.
There was so much more than this going through my mind, and it makes me realize that now is the time to steel myself against what we will need to do when that time comes. I can't at this time go into depth on the things I've alluded to here, and I am praying hard that the hour comes later rather than sooner.
Today as you pray for those who have died, please also remember those who are destined to go soon....they need prayers, too.
