It is a pleasure to grind your claws freely. You can stand by and study the posture of the cat's claws. Look closely, each cat's paws have different expressions! But if you are afraid that the cat's claws are too good to scratch people or wear out furniture, you can go to the pet supplies store to buy cat-specific toenail scissors, and regularly help the cat to repair the claws. But be careful, when helping a cat to repair a paw, don't cut it too deeply, only cut the sharp part of the toenail, and cut the claws of the cat too deeply. If you accidentally hurt the cat's claws, don't panic when you see the bleeding. First press the toe roots firmly, then press the cotton or toilet paper to stop the bleeding. Do not relax. About five to ten minutes, you can stop bleeding. If it is not enough, the cat may have problems with blood coagulation, so seek medical attention as soon as possible. Some people apply the claw to the claw because of the claw-claw problem. The claw-cutting operation is to cut off the first finger and completely remove the cells of the long nail. Since the cat does not understand what the sin of the claws that God has given it, the cat that is subjected to the claw surgery will still perform the claw-clawing action, because it is the driving force of nature. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- What is the reason why cats love to grind their claws? Cat grinding claws can be said to be instinct derived from their ancestors. Grinding claws are a cat's habit, so it is impossible to stop it. For small cats, the claw is its most powerful weapon, so it is necessary to wear away the aging horny from time to time to make it sharp. In addition, the claws are also used to show their power and increase the smell. Defending the home's claws 1. Many cats think that they are the masters of this family. Therefore, defending their homes has become their unshirkable responsibility. If cats often grind their paws near the door, it may mean that they think the potential "invaders" will come in from here. 2, in addition, the claws are also to show their own power, increase the smell. There is a smelly gland in the forefoot of the cat, so it is also used to make the foot have its own smell. Cat grinding claws can be said to be instinct derived from their ancestors Another reason why the cat grinds the paw: First: grinding the claws can speed up the old nails and new nails. Second: there is a sweat gland between the cat's nails, which can radiate the unique taste of only oneself. As a very strong animal, they leave the taste in the possession of the ground by grinding the claws.

US President Donald Trump "will strive to alleviate tensions between the United States and Russia. The Ukrainian issue will be significant in this respect," he said.
Zapalowski described Ukraine, home to over 40 million people, as a country "on the brink of economic collapse."
"Not a single state in the world wants to support and fund Ukraine unless Kiev embarks on fundamental reforms. Neither Russia, nor the United States can afford [such assistance]. As a result, Moscow and Washington will join efforts to devise a strategy aimed at stabilizing the situation in Ukraine," he said.
"Primarily nationalist forces in Ukraine, but also the country's current authorities that (to a large extent on a situational basis) have drawn upon the Ukrainian nationalism have fueled tensions not only with Russia, but also Poland and Hungary. Ukraine's intent to return to the nationalism paradigm which existed 70-80 years ago is sheer madness," he observed.
"The first thing that the US, Russia and Poland must do is reaffirm their strong opposition to Ukrainian nationalism. Surely, there is always rivalry among different nations, but Poland and Russia must talk to each other to help stabilize Ukraine since they are its neighbors. The United States is a global factor which can either facilitate or hinder this process. But no one and nothing can prevent Poland and Russia from fostering working relations with regard to this issue."

Is this finally Army's year? The Black Knights sure hope so as they look to end a 12-game losing streak against the rival Navy Midshipmen in their annual encounter in Baltimore. The 115th meeting between the storied foes sees Army looking to end a difficult season on a positive note, having won two of its previous three games coming in; the Midshipmen have more at stake in this one, as it will serve as a tuneup to a Dec. 23 bowl date with San Diego State.
It looked like Army and Navy might share the same fate midway through the season, but the Midshipmen have won four of their last five games – losing only to nationally-ranked Notre Dame over that span – to surge into the Poinsettia Bowl against the Aztecs in hostile San Diego. Navy has scored at least 39 points in each of its past five games and ranks second in the nation at 357.8 rushing yards per game. Army ranks sixth at 305.5 yards on the ground.
TV: 3 p.m. ET, CBS
LINE HISTORY: Navy has held steady as a 15-point favorite. The total opened at 60.5 but has since dropped three points.
INJURY REPORT: Navy – G Patrick Forrestal (leg), S Lonnie Richardson (concussion) and G Cam Henson (undisclosed) are out. LB James Britton (foot) is questionable. Army – OL Justin Gilbert (knee) is out. DB Geoffery Bacon (ankle) is questionable.
WEATHER REPORT: Temperatures at Jack Stephens Field at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium will be in the low-40s with partly cloudy skies and wind blowing northwest across the length of the field at 10 mph.
WHAT BOOKS SAY: "We haven't seen a lot of movement in the spread, fluctuating a half point either way since opening at -15, and the action is mostly split. The total, however, has dropped a full four points and more than 85 percent of our wagers are on the under. Perhaps the expectance of a chess match between
two run-focused offenses has prompted players to grab the under." John Lester, senior lines manager at bookmaker.eu.
WHAT CAPPERS SAY: "Classic rivalry matchup concludes the regular season with Army looking to snap a 12-game series losing skid. The Cadets are much improved under first year had coach Jeff Monken with four wins this year – their best effort since 2010. Pronlem has lost 13 games in a row (1-12 ATS) in games off a win. On the flip side, Navy enters with a bowl bid in its back pocket. With a pair of rushing juggernauts going head-to-head, look for another low scoring military game." Covers Expert Marc Lawrence
ABOUT NAVY (6-5 SU, 5-6 ATS, 4-6 O/U): The Midshipmen were led by fleet quarterback Keenan Reynolds, who was a QB in name only – the 5-11 junior rushed for 1,082 yards and an eye-popping 20 touchdowns while passing for just five. He had plenty of help on the ground; 10 different Navy players recorded a rushing touchdown, while nine had at least 100 yards on the ground on the season and 18 players registered at least one carry. Jamir Tillman led the receiving corps with 18 receptions for 338 yards and two scores; no other player had more than nine catches.
ABOUT ARMY (4-7 SU, 4-7 ATS, 7-4 O/U): The roll call of Black Knights rushing threats isn't quite as long as that of the Midshipmen, but Army can also pound the ball with the best of them. Larry Dixon led the way with 1,012 rushing yards and nine scores, while quarterback Angel Santiago chipped in 793 yards on the ground and a team-best 10 TDs. The passing game was virtually nonexistent, with Santiago, A.J. Schurr and receiver Joe Walker combining to go 48-for-98 for 710 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions on the season.
* Navy is 8-2 ATS in its last 10 games following a SU victory.
* Army is 6-20 ATS in its last 26 games following an ATS win.
* Under is 8-1 in the Midshipmen's last nine November games.
* Under is 8-0 in the last eight meetings.
COVERS CONSENSUS: Navy has a slim edge among Covers users, garnering 51.77 percent of the vote at -15.

The Struggles of Being in an Inter-faith Relationship
It's hard for me to put into words what it's like to be in an inter-faith relationship. In some respects it's the hardest thing I've ever done and in other ways it's completely natural. If you had asked me 6 years ago if I would ever consider dating a non-Christian guy, I definitely would have said no, but it seems that Cupid has no knowledge of these things when he takes aim at unsuspecting passersby.

What has been your highlight of the year?
"It's all about Jesus…"
With such a busy, challenging schedule as an SUNI intern, it is difficult to pinpoint just one highlight of this year. However what I think has been most invaluable is the time I have spent reading and discussing the Bible and different books with others. Throughout the year, Lyndsey and I have been encouraged to read from a book list, one book per month, as well as the set reading for our staff book club which meets monthly. Alongside this, we have been making our way through a Bible-in-a-year programme and meeting every 6 weeks with a minister from Belfast for questions and mentoring. This year has provided me with space to read and reflect and grow.
Something, which has become very clear to me during this process, is that the Bible in its entirety is ultimately about Jesus. More and more I am being reminded that the Bible is all about Jesus, every verse, every story. That may seem like a strange thing to say or perhaps you think it's obvious but when I consider how often I've read the Bible thinking that it's about me, or it's about a Biblical hero, I'm glad of this realisation. When we read the Bible making it about ourselves, we can become overwhelmed with a sense of insufficiency. We may feel any number of failings or downfalls. Yet when we read the Bible with a sense of it being about our Lord and what He has accomplished, we can be totally sure of the completion of His task and that brings a fresh light to the words that I read. This has transformed how I read the Bible and how I deliver its message to children and young people.
Sarah Kernohan – SU intern
What a year! As the SU internship draws to an end and I look back at the variety of work I have been involved with, I can't believe how quickly this year has passed. Time flies when you're having fun! This year has been an amazing opportunity to try my hand at various tasks and situations I may otherwise not have had – and I have loved every minute! There have been such a range of roles, from participation in the Unite event in the City Hall back in March, to the camps and missions weekend, church speaking events, or even engaging with the Bible-in-a-year. It is so hard to choose one thing in particular which has stood out to me as an overall highlight.
I think the core part to all of those occasions that inspired me the most were the times spent in conversation with people, young and old, volunteer, pupil and colleague alike. Getting the chance to see God reflected in the lives of such different people, in different walks of life. These opportunities have been a blessing to me in a personal way, having the privilege to see and view God differently in the way others connect to Him. That is something I will certainly treasure and take away with me. I want to continue to be purposeful in conversations, building relationships with those I come into contact with, in order to connect with others and make time for them. I want to make the most of each opportunity to grow in my own relationship with God and hopefully inspire others to do the same.
Lyndsey Miles (SU Intern)

With humor and resilience, they will discover the brutal universal truths that define the American family in the 21st century.

NAUGATUCK — A thief made off with a 2015 black Audi A5 in broad daylight Tuesday while the victim filled the car up with gas at the Cumberland Farms on North Main Street.
Police said the car theft occurred at about 5:50 p.m. Surveillance footage shows the victim in a yellow shirt filling up the car as an unknown suspect enters Audi through the driver's side door. The suspect takes off with the car when the victim is finished pumping gas. The license plate of the stolen car is AU23947, police said.
Police believe a newer model white Lexus, which is shown in the footage leaving the gas station, was involved in the incident, too.
Police asked anyone with information to contact the Naugatuck Police Department at 203-729-5221.

Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
Introducing the Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration. And the yachting lifestyle it can bring you is amazing. It really awakens an almost romantic sense of adventure within everyone of us. Being able to go and explore and find new and exciting beaches, islands or views is insurmountable. But then having the convenience of knowing you are mostly just a short distance from civilisation, amazing restaurants or nightlife. It truly is a lifestyle unrivalled by any other leisure pursuit.
But we are all different. And although many of us would like to take part in the adventure; we want to do it in our own individual way. Luckily there are so many different way to actually "yacht".
So here we look at Sirena Yachts 64 foot model. Sirena yachts is a Turkish company with a long heritage and close ties to Azimut yachts. And you can tell the class instantly when you start studying the images and the interior design.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
So firstly, the yacht actually sits very proudly in the water. And perfectly rectangular windows give us a hint of the ethos behind the build and the internal styling. The square bow at the front tells us something else. And this coupled with flat face to the saloon cabin gives us more clues as to what Sirena are trying to achieve with this yacht.
A quick look at the statistics and what I have suspect is confirmed and it's good news when we come to look at the interior design.
So usually when you see a flat front to the bow this means the yacht is simply cutting through the water. The more powerful boats that have a slope from the bow coming down underneath the boat. This style of hull means the boat is using its massive power to try and get above the water and go faster.
So the flat front to the bow means we are 'cruising'; as does the flat front to the bridge. It's not aerodynamic having a flat edge to the front of your yacht. But looking at the statistics, this boat cruises at 16 knots. Unlike some of the monster yachts out there that can get close to 40 knots.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
But where as 35 knots will get you to where you going a lot faster (and in a huge cloud of diesel smoke); cruising actually has a huge amount of benefits for the interior design. The first benefits is that cruisers tend to have a wider beam or width. This is because they also tend to have flatter bottoms. And as they are not carting huge engines around with them; they also tend to have more space inside. As well as the benefits of being more fuel efficient, less noisy and requiring less maintenance.
Is the Sirena yachts 64 possibly a more civilised way to yacht?
Well the perfectly rectangular windows also gave me one more clue as to the direction the interior designers may have taken with the inside. So let's dig a little deeper inside the Sirena 64.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
Once we've looked at the glamour shots. We end up at the aft seating on the main deck. The last picture of the four above. Initially I thought this image needed something. A model, a sunset, a beach, a party? But actually this is the perfect image to start our journey through this yacht.
It just looks so comfy and welcoming and if you woke up and walked outside and this was welcoming you. You'd feel so at home wouldn't you. No need to be on your best behaviour. No need to dress up. It's just so relaxing and welcoming and simply perfect.
Does yachting really have to be complicated? Or even over-the-top?
So as we turn from looking at the aft seating area, we can see inside the saloon.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
And isn't this just a lovely scene. When I was formatting my images for this blog post. I actually had to go back and check this image. It just looks like a lovely apartment in some exotic location. This could so easily be an expensive apartment overlooking the marina. Let alone on a yacht in the marina.
I really think as saloons on this style of home-away-from-home yacht, this one is incredibly successful. Smart and very well finished. But so very, very easy to just slip into and live on.
What does "yachting" mean to you?
Do you actually need anything else? Some people want the lifestyle, but don't really need the drama. Here Sirena have clearly worked towards providing a beautiful environment that just feels like the perfect home you have always wanted.
Oh and the view is amazing and changes as often as you want it to. Brilliant.
But there are some things to note here before we move on. First ahead of us, that window, inside the saloon. What is that? But more noteworthy, look to your left and just remember where the window ends above the sofa. Got it?
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
OK. So now we are in the evening and ignore the models for a moment. Look back to the left and see where the window ends. The white blind has now come down over the window. I looked at this image for ages and was thinking that the TV was in this position permanently and that there was no window on this side of the yacht.
That would have been terrible. We love these rectangular windows. They're so homely and 'normal' and don't have shark fins in the centre of them. If you don't know what I mean read my previous post here.
But in fact that TV comes up from behind the sofa. Isn't that brilliant. I always thought those TV in the base of your bed, didn't really look that great. But this is the first application of this idea that I think is fantastic.
"Are you enjoying the movie about fields my love?"
OK, so that's all good. We didn't lose a window. Right now I'm going to say it. And if what I say next upsets you. Well we can agree to disagree… I don't really like models in yacht images. Sorry!
I think they are only distracting. And I like looking at the yachts and especially Sirena yachts as they are always so interesting. But let's try and ignore the models for a moment. But wait, what are they talking about. She looks a bit annoyed, doesn't she. You see, I told you they were distracting. Chuckle.
I love the dark stripes on the ceiling echoing the dark wooden floor. That little fridge by the man's foot gives us a clue as to what is behind these internal saloon windows that have that magic glass that goes opaque at the flick of switch.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
Yes, that space is actually the galley. And isn't this an incredibly neat solution. All too often a galley… oh heck, this yacht makes us feel so at home; so in this case, let's call it the kitchen; is often neglected a little.
Some of us don't want to cook. And some of us want to employ staff to cook for us. Then some of us want to go to amazing restaurants. And most of us want amazing food brought to us and on and on… You see there are many ways to "yacht". But there are a lot of people who just want a nice space to cook a nice meal, that they can enjoy with their family or loved ones.
And on some yachts that would be difficult. But wait until I take you to where that man is standing.
Wait, what is he thinking? Did they have an argument? Was his cooking not very good? She still looks annoyed.
Anyway, sorry got distracted again. You see where the lady is sitting? To the left of her is actually the cockpit position, behind the galley. And behind her is the stairs doing down. Oh I can't wait to look down there. But first let's go and stand by the lady and look backwards.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
So look at this space. Those beautiful rectangular windows let in so much light and the pale colour palette reflects it all around. This really is such a wonderful homely space. Look at the rug. It even has an amazing rug. Oh my goodness I want to be here.
"Dear Sirena, please invite me to spend some time on one of your beautiful yachts…" I'm writing a letter at the same time.
Sitting here with a friend, having a coffee. Chatting and staring out of the window at that beautiful view. How would you even know you are on a yacht? It's just so homely and relaxing and peaceful. The only thing that would give it away would be a monster powerboat blasting through, making a huge amount of noise, creating a massive wash and filling your saloon with diesel fumes.
You starting to see yet, why so many people really enjoy this end of the yachting lifestyle?
But before we go downstairs, OK, OK, take a look at the "kitchen".
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
WOW! Without a doubt, this is impressive. Look at all that storage space. I could have my nic-nac draw and the wife could have her tupper-ware stash and we'd still have space for gadgets and fancy pans.
If you are buying a yacht as a weekend toy for parties and adventures; basically an incredibly expensive place to lay your head. Then fair enough. The above galley (bit of an insult to call it a galley really) is probably overkill. But if you are going on a long term adventure somewhere. You will have times where you don't want to go out and want to just relax and enjoy a sunset at "home" on your yacht. You are going to have to cook at "home", like normal people. And well this is pretty much the best galley I have seen on a yacht of this size.
Well done Sirena. But all this coffee with friends and home cooked meals and popcorn in front of the TV has made me sleepy. Are you yawning? Leave a comment if you actually did. Chuckle. Let's have a look downstairs.

So again, the bow cabin definitely has the super classy home feel about it. It's so welcoming. Clever storage around the sides of the bed, hide the hull shape. But remember this yacht, likely has a flatter bottom. Not a flat bottom, I mean a hull that is slightly less deep v shaped. The benefit is the floor space will appear flatter. And we can actually see that here. You get a flat bit of floor space right up around the sides of the bed. Wow.
And, excuse me… yes I know you are thinking what I am thinking. Who knew the Turkish were so good at storage. Look at the size of that wardrobe. It's huge. Again clearly they were thinking about customers who were interested in using their yachts for longer term periods.
But still, that wardrobe in the bow cabin, is amazing. Most other yachts could fit a galley in there.
But there is only one thing better than one huge wardrobe? Chuckle. Yes you're right.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
TWO. Although they could have taken off that "Congratulations on owning another huge wardrobe" sticker. Naughty.
Now we are starting to see the real benefits of "cruising" instead of "powering" around. Really, is there anywhere you need to get to that fast? Anyway, look at the floor space at the bottom of the bed and into the bathroom. I could have a good dance there.
The space again, just feels so homely and comfortable. A really nice flip-up makeup table stroke office deck, work space gives you everything you need here. Again this is the bow cabin and it's just got everything you need and so much more.
Let's have a look in the bathroom.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
Oh wow. I love the dark tiger wood. And especially in the satin finish. And when placed next to the dark grey marble top and the pale, bleach effect cabinet doors. It looks great doesn't it?
I know it's hard to remember we are on a boat. As Sirena has styled the space so incredibly well. Obviously that is the outside of the yacht where the window is. So the hull is actually coming down at an angle and eventually underneath us. This is so incredibly well worked to hide that curve and of note look is the shower.
Often when the showers are next to the hull. You just see the hull curve. I like that they put those wooden shelves there. To slightly disguise it. But mostly I like the storage nearly as much as the Turkish do.
But let's go and see what the storage is like in the master stateroom.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
WOW again. OK, so if one couple can have a dance in the bow cabin. We've got a whole ballroom here.
And those rectangular windows again, we now absolutely love. They really could not get any bigger. And I like how they avoided the temptation to make them an organic shape. Most of the time you are going to see your yacht from the inside looking out, not the other way around. So even though those the shark shaped windows are fun and cool. We don't have them on our brick houses. And with Sirena we are setting up for a long-term adventure here, and we want to just simply feel like we are in our home-from home. So rectangular windows are best.
More storage everywhere. And look at all the seating. And it's seating that actually looks like you would use it. Often you see tiny seats that just fill the space under the window and you think. "I could never get my bottom on that for more than a few moments." Here, when the sun is just too hot. A lovely afternoon nap and a sit at the window reading a book. Or my blog. And you'd be in heaven.
Let's head to that door in the middle of the shot.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
Well through that door is obviously the master stateroom bathroom. And here it is. And there we can see to the right of the image and at the back, how they finished the hull. You know when I said before, some showers just leave the hull shape. And then there is no denying where you are. But I really like this finish. It looks like sauna doesn't it? That would be decadent would it. I wonder if you can get that as an option?
OK focus, I'm getting far too excited here.
The bathrooms, like the rest of this yacht, are just a lovely place to be. Not too many designer flares, that frankly put me off more than turn me on. The Sirena designers seem to have styled this yacht to look amazing and distinctly smart. But at the same time appeal to everyone.
Credit should really go to the interior designer. This is an incredibly achievement and very hard to create a look and feel that is brand specific. But at the same time paint with broad enough brush strokes, so as to appeal to many nationalities and cultures.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
The class and style continues even into an en-suite for the twin. The space on this yacht is amazing. If we look at the plans below. There are actually four cabins, including the twin above and bunk cabin, not pictured. But more surprisingly there are actually four "heads". This is the yachting term for toilets.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Inspiration
The black rectangle blobs are, can you guess? Yes the windows. It's nice to see them on the layout plan. Here we see even more fantastic design thinking from Sirena. Look at the bottom layout plan. You can opt to remove the bunk cabin, and guess what you can have instead? Yes more storage from the cheeky Turks. But look closer. It looks like the stairs are in the way. But they are going over the top of this additional storage. So you get a double wardrobe down the hull of the yacht. But then also another double wardrobe that cuts under the stairs. Wow, this is a lot of storage.
But the fact remains. That the designers at Sirena are not stupid. They realise that with all the fantastic food you are going to be getting from the amazing kitchen they have installed upstairs. You will likely need an entirely new wardrobe when the old one doesn't fit any more.
Sirena Yachts 64 Interior Design Conclusion
But even if you opt for the extra wardrobe space under the stairs, instead of the bunk cabin; they still have pictured the toilet at the bottom of the stairs. So in this configuration, you have 3 cabins, but four toilets. Maybe you can have that fourth toilet as even more storage.
So in conclusion this yacht is squarely aimed at a certain sector of the yacht buying public. And in that sector I'm sure it will be incredibly popular. But I think it is more than that. I really think this is a yacht that can make those customers who think they want to be in the other end of the spectrum. Stop and take another look. It really is that good.
Sirena is a wonderful company and their partnership with Azimut really shows. I would love an invite to look at more of their yachts up close. I'm already packing my elasticated shorts and my favourite pots and pans.

Would Espionage at the Marriott mean the Maximum GDPR Fine?
Marriott Hotels recently announced that 500 million residents of its Starwood subsidiaries were affected by a data breach. 327 million of those residents were reported to having had 'some combination' of their arrival and departure information, passport numbers and account information accessible by an attacker from 2014 to 2018. Encrypted credit card details were also taken in the breach, with Marriott yet to confirm whether the keys for decryption were also taken.
Why is this breach so serious?
Persistent access to the database, particularly to "arrival and departure information", would have allowed the attackers to view the travel schedules of millions of clientele as they stayed in luxury hotels across the world. With a number of commentators suggesting espionage as a potentially powerful motivation behind the attack, this breach has been talked about as a security issue as much as a privacy issue.
It seems today (December 7th) that those fears took one step closer to reality.
Reuters have reported that an investigative team that's looking into the Marriott Breach found "hacking tools, techniques and procedures" that are associated with hacking groups working for Chinese intelligence.
Espionage and intelligence gathering is believed to be the motive behind the attack because the hackers were inside the database for so long, and only took copies of the names, addresses, passport details and in some cases, credit card information, in 2018.
This suggests that access to the system would have been of value for intelligence gathering purposes, although the report also suspects that multiple groups of cyber criminals may have had access to the database, making it difficult to attribute this breach solely to China.
How will this play out under the GDPR?
When European regulators assess the privacy impact of this breach the possibility of millions of European residents' planned locations being surveilled over a 4 year period will be a difficult one to provide mitigation for, especially if security controls are proven to be substandard.
With government officials, industry lobbyists, and senior executives from around the world using the luxury Starwood hotel chain, the citizens affected by this breach are citizens who are much more likely to attract attempted acts of surveillance, extortion or blackmail, and this raises both individual and national security concerns.
For European regulators, there are two serious harms to reckon with:
- Millions of individuals whose privacy and security were compromised over a 4 year period, and whose personal information has been taken by potentially multiple cyber criminal groups
- Threats to national security if proven that the motivation behind the attack was for surveillance reasons by a nation state
With lawsuits filed we may see the first truly large GDPR fine for this breach. The maximum fine has been estimated at £117m (4% of global revenue) and if the regulators find evidence of negligent data practices, there are enough potential harms to enough citizens that could justify its levy.
For citizens affected this breach is difficult to reckon with and it might be time to ask whether we can place a price on a data breach that affects individual privacy and national security in this way.
For data privacy and information governance professionals this breach poses serious questions about our ability to govern and protect data of this detail at this scale. Is some data too big to protect or is it that we're not taking the issue of protecting it seriously enough? If it's the former then the priority for innovation has to shift from 'let's do big data' to 'let's avoid too big data'. This would mean a recession in data practices. If it's the latter then this is a wake up call for organisations to discover and protect the data they process. Citizens' right to privacy and security must come first.

Teak wood makes homebuilding easy at Igeto
Date Posted: 2010-02-25
A furniture business launched in 1973 has become one of Okinawas leading outlets for specialty furniture and housing materials.
Igeto Furniture carries a variety of western style and sized teak chairs and tables at its Yonabaru Town showroom. They also have special tables made from teak root, and offer housing construction materials made of teak and other quality woods. The showroom features displays of doors, kitchen furniture and cabinets, as well as flooring woods.
The company, which first established an international branch in Thailand more than three decades ago, now operates both in Laos and with a factory in Indonesia that crafts solid teakwood patio, garden furniture and contemporary furniture.
Iketo Furniture, which provides high quality furniture for upscale hotels, uses genuine materials, many of which are not found elsewhere in Okinawa. Iketos direct distribution system allows the company to offer top quality products at reasonable prices. Iketo doesnt simply produce and export goods, but adheres to a company philosophy that through supplying real value merchandise, we have determined to become a responsible company in harmony with nature.
Iketo officials proudly emphasize their commitment to replanting trees in southeast Asian forests, replenishing the woods harvested for its use. It considers itself a responsible corporate and community citizen, joining forces with numerous agencies to provide assistance throughout the region. When the tsunami inundated Indonesia several years ago, and the country lacked food supplies, Iketo came to the scene to help by supplying foods.
It hasnt been an easy road to success for Iketo, having to initially work with local military members in Laos to establish its factory. The Iketo employees lived in tents for days and days to select quality woods, and then hired and trailed local residents with the skills needed to produce high caliber furniture products. Local materials and manpower are exclusively utilized in products then exported here.
Details on Iketos operations are at the Japan Update website, www.japanupdae.com, where readers can find and open the banner link on the right hand side. Special price offers are listed. Iketo accepts only cash, and only yen. The showroom is open daily 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Further information can be obtained from Iketo at (098) 880-8760 or email to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Are you ready?
Taylor Swift teased a new Reputation track in the name of football.
Well this is interesting. Taylor Swift shared a snippet of a new song titled "Ready For It," which serves as an anthem for tonight's big football game between Alabama and Florida State.
"Are you ready for it? / Baby, let the games begin," Swift sings over a clammering beat. I-I-I see how this is gonna go / Touch me and you'll never be alone / I-Island breeze, lights down low / No one has to know."
The clip the song is soundtracked to features scenes of coaches Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher and the teams running on to the field with cheerleaders and majorettes hyping up the crowd.
As for the song, Taylor dabbles in the real m of electro-pop, but it features an atmospheric, MASSIVE chorus. Is it a bit cringy that she's using it for ESPN? A bit. Does it work all to well? Absolutely.

Howe defends position in legal controversy with town
Ralph Howe, one of the four candidates for a one-year term as selectman, is involved in a legal controversy with the town, which will come before the Board of Appeals at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 2. Board of Appeals meetings are open to the public. Howe is appealing rulings by Codes Officer Paul Mitnick that he has expanded his business, Bio Renewable Fuels Corp (BRF), without planning board approval and is therefore in violation of town ordinances. Through his lawyer, Howe claimed at the Oct. 2 selectmen's meeting that he has not expanded the business, and since previous Codes Officer Scott Pierz approved what he is doing, he does not need a permit now. In the appeals board filing, Howe's attorney, Kristin Collins, of Preti-Flaherty, writes that BRF has had wastewater treatment lagoons and storage tanks on the property at 168 Weeks Mills Road since 2012.
BRF was not required to get a commercial permit to start operations and, Collins writes, received a 2012 building permit to add 4,400 square feet to an existing building and a 2015 building permit for a 25-by-40-foot water treatment building "without being required to obtain approval of a new or expanded commercial use."
Collins writes that BRF has a state waste discharge license that "covers the entire property and all of BRF's wastewater disposal and treatment activities at the property."

It was more than 10 years ago when I first heard the acronym "JIT" used at an IT training conference. If you're new to the training business, JIT stands for "just in time" training. It's a belief that if we move training closer to the moment when a learner would need it, more effective learning would occur. It sounded like all the rage back then, and most organizations and commercial e-learning vendors have been attempting to achieve this utopia ever since. As is often the case with any new initiative within learning, some of our earlier efforts might not have been the best, but we continued to learn from them and improve the solutions.
In the early days of JIT, the conversation seemed to be all about immediacy. With technology as it was, and the lack of such support tools such as learning management systems, much of our time was consumed with making learning available. We needed to work through issues such as firewalls, remote employees, scalability and integrity of the content and our ability to track usage. Shifting the mindset from one that was based on a classroom setup to one that was based on learning in a virtual world took a tremendous amount of effort on everyone's part, especially the learner's. The disappointing outcome for many organizations was a slow to poor uptake of this content once it arrived on the desktop. Even though we could finally stream learning to the masses, there was still something missing to help trigger its uptake and application.
A new dialogue is emerging around process-embedded learning. There are two variables at work when trying to bring effective learning directly to the learner. Immediacy is still critical, but so is the degree to which the learning itself is embedded within the workflow. Both variables need to be considered.
Because many organizations have solved the immediacy problem, let's take a second to concentrate on the ways in which learning needs to be embedded in the workflow. This issue actually needs to be addressed in two ways. The first is the degree to which the learning system is an actual part of the workflow itself, or as a colleague of mine describes it, "How many clicks, windows and platforms does it take to get to the answer." Proximity doesn't always warrant use. For years we've believed that just getting the information to them would be good enough. Even though having an LMS or learning portal idling in the background addresses the immediacy issue, it often leaves the embedded aspect a bit lacking. Learners want embedded systems that live and launch from within the application being learned or workflow being attempted. Journeying out to a separate window, logging-into an LMS and then finding the appropriate learning nugget to answer a question is just too much for most learners. It's not embedded enough.
The other aspect of embedding learning has to do with the degree to which the intervention is tailored to support the specific on-the-job need being addressed. Using keyword searches and wandering through navigational outlines is often not embedded enough. We need to use and develop tools that allow the learning object to be contextually "smart," and the more granular, the better. There are tools emerging that allow us to author embedded learning systems that will watch where we are and feed us the exact information we need without elaborate searches and cumbersome navigational outlines. These systems can also self-select based on who we are or the specific job-role we might have. Some could be project based and only give me information relative to my role within the project or where I might be in the process. The more we can use these types of systems, the more accessible, relevant and effective the learning.
Finally, as I've mentioned in earlier articles, it's key that these systems are taught. All too often learners are left on their own to learn these tools simply because they are viewed as self paced. Be sure to plan for the time needed to acclimate to these and to see the value. Without that, even the best tool will sit idle.
Just in time just isn't good enough anymore. We need to mature our thinking, our tools and our solutions from a JIT mentality to one that uses embedded learning experiences at the exact moment of need.

Payoff on a big Czech
The board chairman of Vaclav Nedomansky Enterprises Ltd. of Canada—Vaclav Nedomansky himself—gaveled the meeting to order last Friday morning. No time to waste, gentlemen. I've got to play a hockey game tonight, and I want to get some sleep this afternoon. Seated to the chairman's right, chin in hand, was legal counsel, R. Alan Eagleson. Across the table, also chin in hand, was the chairman's friend and interpreter, George Gross, known as "the Baron." Counsel presented his report, speaking rapidly in English but occasionally pausing as the Baron relayed the message in Czech.
The health insurance for Vaclav (pronounced Vatz-lav), wife Vera and son Vaclav Jr. was in effect. As was the life insurance. A checking account was operative. Ditto a savings account. The credit cards should be arriving in the mail. The leases have been signed for the new apartment. And, yes, Vaclav had passed his driver's test. "Any questions?"
"Two," said the chairman, extending a pair of fingers. When he defected from Czechoslovakia to Canada by way of Switzerland last summer (SI, July 29), Nedomansky left his old Chrysler with the attorney in Bern who had been hired by his new employers, the Toronto Toros of the World Hockey Association. The lawyer had been instructed to sell it and forward the proceeds to Nedomansky.
"No money." said the chairman.
"I'll look into that immediately," Eagleson said, scribbling on a yellow legal pad. "If worse comes to worst, we'll get the money from the Toros. Next?"
"My new car," said the chairman. Before the ink dried on his five-year, $750,000 contract, Nedomansky had bought a white 1975 Thunderbird with all the extras. The car, Nedomansky said, was in need of its 1,000-mile checkup.
"I'll call over," said Eagleson, scribbling again. "Drop it off some morning next week, and it will be ready for you by the time practice is over. Anything else?"
"No," said the chairman, shaking his head. "Thank you."
Back in Bratislava, the only board meetings Nedomansky ever attended had been on the ice when he crashed into them, something that didn't happen very often to "Big Ned," the captain of the Czech national team. "Because of my position," Nedomansky says, "I was always able to get what I wanted for my family." What he wanted last summer was a family holiday in Switzerland, a junket with no return as it turned out. But let's go back for a moment.
Three years ago, during a Canadian tour with the Czech nationals, Nedomansky managed to leak word of his possible availability to the NHL through the Baron, who had defected to the West in 1949 after being jailed following the Communist takeover of Czechoslovakia in 1948. "I had known Big Ned for about seven years," says Gross, now sports editor of the Toronto Sun, "because I had always entertained Czech players on their visits to Canada and met them at the World Hockey Championships." At the lime, Big Ned was on the negotiating list of the NHL Buffalo Sabres. Gross arranged a meeting between Sabre General Manager Punch Imlach and Dr. Zdenek Andrst, president of the Czech Hockey Federation, at the Westbury Hotel in Toronto. No deal. "I was only 27 years old then," recalls Nedomansky, "and Czechoslovakia still needed me. When you become 30, that's when they don't need you anymore. I had to wait."
Nedomansky turned 30 last March, his birthday party attended by representatives of both the WHA's Toros and the NHL's Atlanta Flames, who had gained negotiating rights from Buffalo. Again, the agents first tried to deal for him through legal channels, but when the Czech federation continued to signal thumbs down, efforts moved underground. People in strange clothes began showing up at Nedomansky's duplex apartment in Bratislava at very strange hours—and knowing his affection for good vibes, they came loaded with the latest Neil Diamond, Simon and Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills & Nash releases. Eventually, Nedomansky requested a visa for the Swiss holiday, but the message was clear to his Western wooers: Don't call me, I'll call you.
It was a bittersweet July day when the Nedomanskys packed three suitcases into the Chrysler and left Bratislava. "Any more than three bags and we would have aroused suspicion. Everyone thought we'd be back in a couple of weeks," he says. Once in Switzerland, according to plan, Nedomansky met teammate Richard Farda, another Czech national player who had been given a vacation visa for his family. Representatives of the Toros and the Flames were contacted, and their respective general managers arrived in Bern the next day. The contract sessions carried on for four days; however, the Toros' Buck Houle was so confident that he had already begun immigration arrangements.
For Nedomansky, the switch in lifestyles has been easier than expected, thanks to the Baron and his wife Elizabeth, not unexpectedly known as "the Baroness." "George takes me everyplace and gives me a kick when I need it," Ned says, "and Elizabeth takes Vera shopping, makes her speak English and helps her fix the apartment." Although his English is good enough to get by in restaurants, Big Ned is hoping to speed up his adjustment to Canada with a Berlitz course. "I was one test away from my degree in physical fitness at the University of Bratislava, and I was only a few credits short of another degree, in biology," he says. "Once I learn to speak English, I will write to some universities and try to get a position as a teacher in the off-season."
On the ice the adjustment should be less of a problem. Nedomansky centers Toronto's No. 1 line for Frank Mahovlich and Tony Featherstone. (Farda presently is the Toros' No. 4 line center.) "Ned needs 15 or 20 games around the league, and then he'll be all right," Mahovlich says. "The ice here is smaller than in Europe, and we make quicker passes than they do."
Nedomansky agrees with Mahovlich's assessment. "Back home we used the scientific approach," he says. "We always tried to make plays. Here you shoot the puck in all the time and then go chase it. It's a new game for me."
New game or not, Nedomansky's adroit puck handling has enabled him to score three goals in Toronto's first five games. And as he skated onto the ice at Maple Leaf Gardens for last Friday night's game with the Winnipeg Jets the crowd of more than 14,000—the Toros' largest ever—was chorusing "Big Ned, Big Ned, Big Ned." Among those spectators was another Czechoslovakian-born center studying Big Ned from the stands. "I guess they don't make small centers any more in Czechoslovakia," said 5'9" Stan Mikita of the Chicago Black Hawks. Nedomansky stands 6'2", weighs 205 pounds and has shoulders like an Ohio State lineman.
In at least one way Nedomansky should have felt at home, thanks to Winnipeg's own international makeup, including a quartet of Swedes—Ulf Nilsson and Anders Hedberg, who play on a line with Bobby Hull, tough Defenseman Lars-Eric Sjoberg and Goalie Curt Larsson—and a pair of Finns, Defenseman Heikki Riihiranta and Center VeliPekka Ketola. After Hull scored an early goal, Toronto dominated play, winning 3-1 to remain undefeated in the WHA's Canadian Division.
Nedomansky scored the final Toro goal, converting from the slot on a power play set up from behind the net. Mikita beamed when Big Ned fired the puck past Goaltender Joe Daley.
"Just another good Czech center," he said. And, like Mikita, another Czech center who has already become a skating corporation.

Rivalries have made cricket a far richer sport as when two professional cricketers compete; the overall outcome is some high-quality cricket which leads to the elation of cricket fans throughout the globe. Over the years gone by, viewers and fans have witnessed some enthralling rivalries between bowlers of different teams and the will to outplay one another has often resulted in a sheer spectacle.
However, the equation completely changes when that rivalry is translated to one within a team. Intense competition within teammates is bound to have an impact upon the overall team without a doubt. The rivalry between pace legends Waqar Younis and Wasim Akram was a delight for all cricket lovers, and their ultimate will to outdo one another benefitted Pakistan the most, as they ended up make a mockery of the opposition batting.
Conversely, this rivalry also took a toll in the dressing room as there were several ego clashes. In a recent interaction with ESPN Cricinfo, Younis admitted that he regrets his rivalry with Akram. "I am really good friends with Wasim Bhai, he has always been an elder brother," Waqar said. "He has always supported and helped me on the field, off the field. Yeah, we had issues. He didn't only have issues with me but we had issues in the team those days, which yes if you ask me the truth, yes I do regret at times because you know it did not really help Pakistan cricket," the king of yorker said.
"We wanted to compete with each other, we wanted to take more wickets than the other one and I think in a way, it did help. But yeah, if you ask me that particular episode, yes, we all regret it because it shouldn't have happened. It was ugly those days but those days we were younger and we didn't know much, now we are probably wiser and we want to improve things. Yeah, you can say that it was a regret," the former Pakistan coach added.
"But then again if you look at it, we had issues off the field but when we walked onto the field it was different ball game altogether," Younis concluded.

DEATH ANGEL's TED AGUILAR Speaks To SPIRIT OF METAL (Video)Posted by vBoogieMan in Blabbermouth, tags: Aguilar, August Burns Red, Billboard 200 Chart, Billboard Chart, Black Dahlia Murder, Contemporaries, Death Angel, Devildriver, Jason Suecof, Job For A Cowboy, Killing Season, Material Sort, Metal Death, Nuclear Blast Records, October 11, Retribution, San Francisco Bay, San Francisco Bay Area, Sanford Florida, Trivium
Spirit Of Metal recently conducted an interview with guitarist Ted Aguilar of San Francisco Bay Area metallers DEATH ANGEL. You can now watch the chat below.
DEATH ANGEL's seventh album, "The Dream Calls For Blood", sold 5,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 72 on The Billboard 200 chart.
DEATH ANGEL's previous CD, "Relentless Retribution", opened with 2,700 units in September 2010. The band's 2008 effort, "Killing Season", registered a first-week tally of around 2,300. This number was in line with the performance of its predecessor, "The Art of Dying", which premiered with around 2,100 copies back in May 2004.
Released on October 11, 2013 in Europe (except for the U.K. where it arrived three days later) and October 15, 2013 in North America via Nuclear Blast Records, "The Dream Calls For Blood" was recorded at Audiohammer Studios in Sanford, Florida with producer Jason Suecof (TRIVIUM, AUGUST BURNS RED, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, ALL THAT REMAINS, WHITECHAPEL, DEVILDRIVER), and once again features cover art by Brent Elliot White (JOB FOR A COWBOY, CARNIFEX, WHITECHAPEL).
Asked how DEATH ANGEL was able to construct such fast, aggressive, brutal material for "The Dream Calls For Blood" while many of the band's contemporaries have, to varying degrees, abandoned thrash and speed metal, DEATH ANGEL singer Mark Osegueda told Metal Blast: "I think with us we kind of went the opposite direction. We got all of the experimentation out while we were young back in the '80s; we tried to push the envelope then and maybe pushed it a little too much. When we reformed in 2001, we were writing new material, sort of fishing a bit, not knowing which direction things would go in. Over time, we started getting on the same page a lot more. Then we lost a couple of the original members, which in turn brought us two younger players who were very hungry to play, very eager to tour, and were also much more thrash-based players. Will [Carroll] is a much more thrash-styled drummer than Andy [Galeon, former drummer], who was a much more groove-based, almost '70s rock kind of drummer. Dennis [Pepa, former bass player] was a much more punk-derived player than Damien [Sisson] is. When Rob [Cavestany] was coming up with the riffs for the new record, he was definitely playing off those strengths. So all of that lead to us going back to our thrash roots and coming up with some of the strongest material we've written to date."

Bexley's achieves 'outstanding' in children's services
PUBLISHED: 16:21 17 August 2018 | UPDATED: 10:39 20 August 2018
A recent Ofsted inspection of services for children, young people, families and carers in Bexley has judged the borough's provision to be Outstanding.
Inspectors found that services had significantly improved since the previous inspection in 2014.
They commented in particular on the ambitious and effective work to protect children and to help families stay together where it is safe enough for this to be possible.
For children and young people who are not able to live within their family networks and who are looked after by the council, inspectors found that they are supported by social workers who know them well and who are making good plans with their families about their futures.
Plans to further improve the support for young adults leaving the council's care were also said to be making a difference with leaders overseeing credible planning and change.
The adoption service was marked out as being exceptional for its unrelenting focus on children's needs and their support for adopters.
Overall the service in Bexley was described as being underpinned by many skilled practitioners who know the families and young people well, and make effective relationships with them which are helping their lives to be better.
The Ofsted visit took place over two weeks during July, fully engaging inspectors in observing practice, with families, carers, children and young people, as well as partners and professionals.
Bexley's cabinet member for children's services, Cllr Philip Read, said: "I am very proud of everyone involved for the work they are doing to support our children and their families.
"We have been on a continuous journey of improvement and Ofsted have recognised the progress we've made.
"Over the last four years we have put in place a number of innovations including developing our own Social Work Academy that not only encourages the best newly qualified social workers to come to Bexley, but makes them want to stay with us.
"At the same time, we have succeeded in attracting an increasingly capable and professional permanent workforce of experienced staff and reduced to a slender minimum what was an unhealthy reliance on expensive agency staff."
Leader of Bexley Council, Cllr Teresa O'Neill said: "This is great news and we can take a moment to enjoy this recognition of our outstanding service but in many ways the real challenge starts now and that is the challenge of sustaining and building further on this accolade.
"We know there are always areas we can improve and that each day, we face unique and challenging situations.
"Sadly things sometimes do go wrong but we are relentless in our wish to learn from those moments alongside our families, young people and partners."
Bexley's director of children's services, Jacky Tiotto said: "I would like to thank all our practitioners, managers and leaders who come to work every day to try and make a difference to someone's life.
"I know they are so proud of this inspection result and I hope each and every one of them stays with us so that we can continue to do all we can to help children, their families and carers to enjoy their lives together.
"There is a special thank you I must make to the director of children's services in Essex, Helen Lincoln, who has supported and guided me over the three years we have been working to be the best we can be."
