The 149th episode of DT podcast comes from Tel Aviv based duo TV.OUT. We spoke to them about the the leftfield techno oriented label they run - Parallax, the club scene of Tel Aviv, future and past releases and life in general.
DT: Can you tell us a bit about your background? Your Soundcloud states you're both Tel Aviv based, were your born there, how did you meet?
Charly: Well, I grew up in Beit Shemesh, a suburb of Jersusalem.
Ori: I grew up in Ra'anana, a small city thirty minutes from Tel-Aviv.
We met in a music school around 2011 and after a few months we realised we have a lot in common. We started working together on tracks as well as DJ'ing around Tel-Aviv.
DT: You have several releases out on Parallax, and your first release came out on this label in 2014 on the split E.P. 'Parrallax 01' with Pharaoh and Yogg. The label's mission states: 'set to release leftfield Techno producers from Tel-Aviv'. Can you tell us a bit about this label?
Parallax Records was born in 2014. We formed it with our friends and local producers Yogg & Pharaoh. We've ran it together since then.
At the time, the four of us used to hang at a small record shop called Auerbach Records (now sadly closed). Whilst we were hanging around there we began to develop the idea of a label, so we could release our own music and provide a platform for other local talent we liked too.
Our mission was to find producers operating under the radar, focussing on leftfield stuff from Israel. There wasn't an outlet for this stuff back then in Israel, and we felt it was time for one. In 2014 not many people were into this sound in Tel Aviv, but we got nice feedback from the local community so we stuck with the idea and decided to see how far we could go with it.
Since our first release In 2014, we've done release parties for every record. We also also decided to host monthly events, often inviting international DJs and producers. Luckily, as time went by our events became more and more popular.
DT: From your first E.P. through your discography there is a distinctly noisy, acid, punky vibe and aesthetic to your music. What were your musical influences as your grew up, and when did you begin to produce?
Charly: From 1997 I was clubbing in Ha'oman 17 in Jerusalem, the biggest club for house and techno in those days. I drew a lot of inspiration from the DJ sets I heard there, names such as Plastikman, Francios K, Frankie Knuckles and Louie Vega. In 2011 I attended music school and I began producing then.
Ori: All throughout my childhood and teenage years I was into Gangster Rap and hip-hop, especially the west coast sound and Tupac. I've always messed around with Cubase and other software but nothing too serious really. In 2011 I started music school with Ori though, and all that changed.
When we first started producing we didn't really have a specific sound, we were just messing around. As time went by we realised that producing "inside the box" was not really for us and so the endless synth shopping mania began.
We were often partying at 'Later', a monthly night that brought a lot of interesting DJ's from across the spectrum of underground musical. This place helped to inspire us and the sound we create today.
Charly is also a co-founder of a club in Tel-Aviv called 'Alphabet'. Since Alphabet opened we're often Djing there and we get to book our favourite DJS too. These experiences also help inform our music.
Our sound has changed quite a lot through the years. We just get inspired by a lot of genres and styles, from new wave to house to electro and much more. Our sound is always changing, and the music that we're into plays a big part in this.
We guess our sound formed from the music we were exposed to at the parties we went to, and also from the synths and drum machines we bought and collected. Maybe something in the aesthetic of the sound and the production techniques stayed the same. After all, it's still us doing the music we love with our own ears.
DT: Do you each have a musical background, classical or college training for example, or is it all self taught?
Well, as we say both of us studied electronic music production in Tel Aviv.
DT: Are there any particular producers you really look up to, and could you give us a brief overview of the equipment you use?
There are a lot of producers we really like and occasionally we get really obsessed with... to name of a few from recently: Kraftwerk (obviously), The Other People's Place (basically everything from the Drexciya guys), Gherkin Jerks, Liaisons Dangereuses & Plastikman.
Our setup nowadays is: Octatrack - main sequencer; Analog Rytm, TR-606, TR-707, Juno-106, MC-202, Poly 800, JV-1010, Eurorack system and effects.
DT: How do you navigate the production process, do you being with a firm idea or concept and let that guide you, or do you prefer to jam and see what happens?
It depends. Sometimes we have an idea for a concept or genre we want to create or play with, or a specific sound we want to mess about with. Other times we are experimenting with the synths and just let "them" take us further.
DT: Your third release was a split E.P. with Hamburg deep house crew Smallpeople and came out on 'Fuck Reality', a Smallville Records sub-label. Can you describe how this came about? Listening to your music, which tends to the noisy and seductively abrasive against Smallpeople's/Smallville's much more refined and 'straight' style, people might not have expected such a collaboration to occur.
In 2015 we travelled to Berlin and to Hamburg with Tel Avivian DJ and our friend Idit Frenkel, a member of the "Later" crew we mentioned before. Idit had a gig at the Golden Pudel in Hamburg with Smallpeople and we decided to join her for the trip.
Before the gig, we were hanging around with Idit at Just von Ahlefelds' and Julius Steinhoff's studio, these are the guys from Smallpeople.
One thing led to another and we started playing around with the machines, we basically finished this jam session with these 2 tracks. The jam just came about at that moment, we didn't really think much about it. Just playing, having fun and capturing the vibe. Being able to share it with the world is a privilege.
DT: Tel Aviv was famous for its liberal approach to gay-rights and lifestyles, with historically a club orientated and somewhat mainstream approach to house music: progressive, trance, 'club-house' etc. Super-club DJ & progressive house mix series Global Underground was inaugurated by celebrated gay DJ Tony de Vit in Tel Aviv for example; Tel Aviv was a big deal in club-land back in the 1990s. Perhaps you could give us an insight: how is the city right now, particularly in reference to club and gay culture and does this have any influence upon your own work?
In the 90's there were many big clubs for house & techno and we've heard a lot of stories from "back in the day", but we personally didn't experience any of that in real time. Since then though the scene has had a lot of ups & downs, mainly due to the ever on-going Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Whenever things got intense (more often than not), the tourists cancelled their trips, the international DJs cancelled their bookings and all the local ravers stayed at home. So basically the clubs were often empty.
Nowadays though the city is booming. Most of the time the clubs are full and stay open for a couple of days straight. There are many tourists, especially during the summer time.
Two years ago a big gay party called PAG began hosting events at the Alphabet club and now we have a PAG night every other week. We feel this move has really strengthened the bond between gay and straight people and helps make the city much more gay friendly. Still, the majority of Israelis are conservatives and the underground clubs don't get any support from the municipality, the police or the government. On the contrary.
We're happy to be resident DJs for PAG and feel it's an honour to be a part of this community and see it grow and develop. Being resident DJs and playing a lot around town has a big influence on our productions, towards a more club-friendly and dancefloor oriented approach. Usually, when we work in the studio we have a vision of a party in mind.
That being said, in general we are not the biggest fans of the general atmosphere of the Tel Aviv, especially on the weekend. There are many shitty people in the streets and many shitty bars and pop-dance bars. Ironically, our rejection of that is actually a big influence on our music. That, and the other struggles that come from a life lived in Israel.
DT: From personal travels and people I've met, I also know there is, (or was) a strong psy-trance presence more generally in Israel. Is psy-trance still a force in Israel?
Psy-trance is still very popular in Israel, though not so much in the Tel-Aviv clubs. It's usually outdoor parties and festivals around the country.
DT: Did you use to go to any of the psy-trance parties and does the illegal nature of psy-trance sound-system culture have any influence on your own work?
We did use to go to Psy-trance events. At a time they were the perfect getaway from the Israeli day-to-day. A lot of Israelis that served the Israeli army and wished to "release some stress" found a good way to do this within the psytrance and free party culture.
Whether Tupac, gangster rap, illegal psytrance parties or techno raves, they all share the same aggression, anti establishment vibes and aim for freedom with us. So yes, you can say they had a bit of an influence.
DT: I want to very briefly mention the political situation in Israel. Its such a hotly debated and highly charged topic I would feel it was being ignored by not mentioning it. Its also true that people from outside Israel don't often get to hear/read directly what two young people who actually live within the country might feel about the situation. Do you feel the impact of the Israel/Palestine conflict in your lives on a daily basis, and in which ways does this impact affect you, emotionally and physically?
The conflict takes up a big part of our lives for as long as we can remember unfortunately, but we have to learn to live with it. We don't feel it on a daily basis as such though, Tel Aviv is like a bubble trapped inside the madness. Life here always continues as usual, though of course we feel it more in times of tension. Of course we're people of peace and against any kind of violence. But you really have to be optimistic to stay sane in this country.
DT: Back in 2015 Greg Beato remixed one of your tracks, for your second release out on Parallax: Lights Out. Your latest E.P. 'Further' has just been released on L.I.E.S. and you recently were invited to host a Rinse FM show on behalf of the L.I.E.S. crew. It would appear TV.Out has quite an ongoing relationship with the L.I.E.S. team. How did you meet them and do you have any projects planned for the future with them?
Ever since the early days of the "Later" parties we got hooked on L.I.E.S., the music and vibe of this label has influenced us greatly.
For our parties at Alphabet we always book artists we like and some of them are affiliated with L.I.E.S. Records, guys such as Marcos Cabral & Greg Beato for example. During Greg's time here we talked about our upcoming release on Parallax and asked him if he wanted to do a remix.
When Samo DJ was in town, we met him and we hung around together, we even jammed in the studio and made a track. Sam sent the track to Ron Morelli and also introduced us to him. Since then we've met Ron a few of times in person and stayed in touch. Last summer we sent him couple of tracks, he liked them and wanted to release the EP on L.I.E.S.
DT: If a Digital Tsunami reader were to visit Tel Aviv, where should they go? Please share with us a little bit about your favourite places in the city you call home.
A couple of places we suggest to visit, that we often go to personally would be:
- the Alphabet Club,
- Phi a vegan restaurant near the Alphabet,
- Hummus Hakerem,
- America Burger
- Falafel Tadmor.
None of the clubs here have a specific sound, each night of the week in the same club can sound different. If you want a DT type music (or any other specific sound) you need to look for the right DJ's for it, in-stead of a particular club.
DT: Can you let us know about any upcoming projects, gigs, records you have going on?
We have an upcoming EP on PARALLAX (number 9) soon and a couple of projects to be announced soon, so stay tuned!

Carl Froch vs Groves. Now I see both why he lost essentially to a random, and why he gets KOs. The dude flings himself pretty much body and soul into every punch, leaving himself hilariously out of position for incoming counters, if only the opponent has the will and the accuracy to find him.
This opponent, Congolese journeyman Chris Mafuta, did not. Feigenbutz dropped him hard in the first and pummelled him all over the ring in the 2nd, causing the ref to end it early.
In a much more competitive fight, unbeaten Polish prospect Maciej Sulecki got all he could handle from rugged- dare I say Mexican-style- Frenchman Nicolas Dion in a battle of European prospects in Brodnica, Poland.
Unfortunately the judging reflected the fact that it was, in fact, in Brodnica, Poland. Sulecki, it was apparent from the opening bell, was the far more athletic, in shape, and talented of the two fighters, and he announced that with a thud relatively early in the first round, dropping the Frenchman rather heavily.
But as the rounds wore on, Dion kept plowing forward, often pinning Sulecki against the ropes, and just generally working non-stop. Sulecki, for his part, seemed to get caught trying to look good as opposed to throwing punches.
Not that he was extraordinarily inactive, either. I had it all even at six rounds to four for Dion, with Sulecki scoring the knockdown in the first and I guess a standing 8 count in the 10th when he had almost stopped Dion.
Sulecki pretty clearly won rounds 6 and 7 to go with his two rounds, while Dion won the others clearly with the exception of the 5th, which I thought could have gone either way, but which I gave to Dion.
So maybe Sulecki did just enough. What he did NOT do was win it by 10, 8, or even 4 points, which is what the clowns sitting at ringside would have you believe.
These cards were a tragedy for the sport. In order of their margin, the names to which we should hereby attach permanent shame are Krzysztof Bubak , Piotr Koslowski , and to a lesser extent Robert Gortat Unknown Abraham might be on the shelf for a little while, after reporting a broken hand against Sjekloca.
When he comes back, he says he would like a rematch with Andre Ward or a fight with Felix Sturm. Unknown Kessler held a press conference to announce that he would fight on.
Unknown 20 Caleb Truax Last Fight: Saturday Callum Smith vs. The hot Liverpool prospect fought 7 times in , but this will be only his 2nd this year as he begins to really climb the ladder.
Sarabia is a low-level journeyman from Spain who has three losses, at least one of which was against a bad fighter. Even worse, the best or at least most accomplished fighter he ever beat carried a record of at the time, and that was a split decision.
Gonzalez, who looked fairly fleshy at super middle, was nevertheless the more effective puncher, shot for shot. I had it , and I could easily have seen up to two rounds flipping in either direction.
It was about as close as it gets. All of the judges turned in what I thought were reasonable cards, with the result being a split decision in favor of Gonzalez.
Saturday in Berlin, 2 Arthur Abraham won a decision that was evidently more comfortable on the cards than it was in his own body.
Abraham said after the fight that his fingers were already damaged at the start of the fight, and that the use of his right hand was limited even in training.
He claims to have broken the hand completely a little more than halfway through the fight. My card was I thought the card by Andre Van Grootenbruel was a shade too close to be considered fully reasonable, as I think he gave Abraham both of the toss-up rounds and also called a pretty clear Abraham round even.
He had it , which is just plain out of bounds. Perhaps affected by the nose and resulting difficulty breathing, Periban seemed unwilling to press the issue after the 5th, and Love was able to clearly win 4 of the last 5 rounds.
I had it for Love, in the end. That being said, the only round that I found tough to score was the 2nd, which I gave narrowly to Love.
This means that appropriate scores, in my view, could only have ranged between Love and Periban. He had it , which means there was either a math error, or he gave somebody a round in addition to that earned by Periban in the 5th- something that would not be remotely defensible.

Charles Watts Lists The TWO Conditions That Could See Youri Tielemans Joining Arsenal
David Tully Jan 13th 2022
Leicester midfielder Youri Tielemans is a target for Arsenal, according to Goal's Gunners correspondent Charles Watts.
It is believed that the London club have held talks with the Belgian international's representatives in recent weeks to discuss the possibility of a switch to the Emirates.
Tielemans has eighteen months left on his contract at the King Power Stadium, and he is unlikely to sign a new deal with the Foxes, meaning he could be sold in the near future.
However, Watts claims that the 24-year-old will not be sold this month and Arsenal would have to wait until the end of the season if they want to secure the player's signature. That could be an issue considering the Gunners are already short of numbers in the middle of the park. One solution could be to find a short-term loan (like Juventus's Arthur) in order to tide them over until the summer.
The other pre-condition is related to Arsenal's performances on the pitch. It is thought that Tielemans is much more likely to be interested if the club qualifies for the Champions League. The Gunners are in the mix for fourth place but they will have to fight off the likes of West Ham, Tottenham and Manchester United to seal a spot in Europe's top competition.

Not much has happened since last update.
This entry contains some photos and words from Lumous 2011, few words about Cut/Copy & Villa Nah show at Kulttuuritalo and something about Peter Hook & The Light at Nosturi.
I went to see Cut/Copy and Villa Nah to Kulttuuritalo. Both bands were OK. At last I saw Villa nah, after around 2 years of trying to see them. And another Cut/Copy show. Cut/Copy is always great live.
Little while later I went to see Peter Hook & The Light playing Joy Division at Nosturi. I guess this is closest to seeing Joy Division you can get these days. It was pretty good. For a while, I was wondering, that why there is two bass players at stage; Peter Hook and some other guy, but it turned out that Peter Hook had his bass more as an outfit, less for playing. Anyway, it was pretty good.
And now fast forward to July. And no, I really didn't go to any clubs, shows, or anything else, in between. I did visit Hong Kong, but that is another story, and doesn't contain any music.
Lumous festival at Tampere. I have ranted about it before. There is so much more potential on Lumous, but it can't get anywhere with current organizer's, unfortunately. I guess there is enough people to be happy with just current form of festival, that no change or progress is expected. I had already decided not to go, but then Flow festival's three day tickets were sold out before I got one, so I went to Lumous instead.
Friday: I missed early evening warm-up club with Impact. Afterwards I heard they were good. It was too early. I was at work on Friday, had travel with buss and train to tampere after work, as Automaan huolto failed to fix my car in schedule.
So I went directly to Klubi. There was some neofolk band playing, but since I have been little sick lately of all those neofolk bands with some dude playing out-of-tune guitar, and another dude finding too much space between notes while singing. Later I learned, that this time there was some blond chick singing instead. Too late now.
Then there was Freakangel, which I call for false advertising; promo picture's show some hot chicks with the singer of the band, but no hot chicks were on stage. I took some photos, and then went back to terassi.
Main act of the evening was Star Industri. I have seen them couple of times before, they are OK, but that's all. Same this time, they were Ok, but that is. They did play pretty good cover version from three year old indie hit Kids by Mgmt. It was good first time they played it, but when they played it again 20 minutes later, it was sad. Got few fotos.
Saturday: Went to Dark market, bought mutant bunny, and fairy t-shirt. Went to eat burger at Roosters. Some boozing, I didn't want to see finish bands at Dog's home. Kumous gnostic festival/what-ever-warmup probably would have been more interresting, but didn't go there either. I didn't feel like "dressing up", so I just put on my new t-shirt and that's it. I think I missed Larva. Then there was Attrition, which was OK. I got some photos then again to terassi, and more time was spend at terassi. Then there was Anne-Marie Hurst with her band. I saw them last year at Gothic festival in Belgium. It was just OK then, and same this time around.
Klutae was actually only band on whole festival, that I wanted to see. And, yes, it was almost worth all the trouble. Old-school EBM that is actually old-school, instead of all those new "fake" old-school EBM bands. Klutae is side project of Lars from Leather strip, with his husband, I think.
I didn't go to gothnic or The end. I Didn't attend any wild after parties. I spoke with three different Elina's, now that I think of it, it was little weird.

Taking the pulse of the federal government's web presence by ericjuliagray
Saturday June 6th, 2015 at 6:46 PM
18F: Digital service delivery
by Eric Mill, Julia Elman, Gray Brooks, and John Tindel
The U.S. federal government is launching a new project to monitor how it's doing at best practices on the web.
A sort of health monitor for the U.S. government's websites, it's called Pulse, and you can find it at pulse.cio.gov.
Pulse is a lightweight dashboard that uses the official .gov domain list to measure two things:
Analytics: Whether federal executive branch domains are participating in the Digital Analytics Program that powers analytics.usa.gov.
HTTPS: Whether federal domains have deployed the HTTPS protocol, and how well they've done it.
These two things are just a start — there are a lot of other important things worth measuring! It's also important to note that Pulse is currently only measuring parent domains (e.g. agency.gov) and is not measuring subdomains (e.g. portal.agency.gov).
The project will hopefully expand over time to measure more best practices and more websites. In the meantime, Pulse is a commitment by the U.S. government to build a world-class analytics program and to transition entirely to HTTPS.
Pulse is a collaboration between 18F and the Office of Government-wide Policy (OGP).
Like 18F, OGP is an office of the U.S. General Services Administration. Among many other things, OGP operates the .gov domain registry and the CIO Council, an interagency forum of Chief Information Officers.
18F previously partnered with OGP in December to release the complete .gov domain list. Since then, 18F has worked with the Digital Analytics Program to build analytics.usa.gov, and has coordinated with a number of agencies to strengthen HTTPS for federal .gov domains. We're deeply gratified that we've had the opportunity to work with OGP to create a platform that continues this momentum.
How pulse.cio.gov works
Pulse was created in around six weeks. We built the project in the open from Day 1, obtained our domain name and relevant cybersecurity approvals in our first couple weeks, and released new versions of the dashboard to pulse.cio.gov early and often throughout the process.
We also gathered usability feedback throughout development from users both inside and outside of the government, and repeatedly incorporated the results of that feedback into our work. Even though Pulse is only a handful of pages and puts most of its data into a simple table, we wanted to pay attention to detail and take the same user-centered approach 18F takes with our larger projects.
Pulse is a static website whose data is created from a combination of sources:
The official .gov domain list. This is currently exported manually by GSA staff on a roughly quarterly basis.
The list of websites which participate in the Digital Analytics Program. This is also currently exported manually by GSA staff on a roughly quarterly basis.
Data collected from a public scan of how federal domains respond to HTTP and HTTPS, using an open source tool by Ben Balter called site-inspector.
Data collected from a public scan of HTTPS configuration details for federal domains, using the SSL Labs API.
To coordinate the data collection process, we created domain-scan, a small Python command line tool that runs domains through site-inspector and the SSL Labs API and produces CSV reports.
We then run these CSVs through a final step, where we take the low-level primitives we gathered during the scanning process and create some higher-level conclusions and save them in a format that Pulse can automatically render into a table.
The process is not fully automated, and so Pulse isn't updated every day. There's work to do on all of the above to get to the point of showing fully up-to-date data without human intervention.
Measuring participation in the Digital Analytics Program
The Digital Analytics Program is a free, shared web analytics service for U.S. federal agencies.
To participate, agencies place some JavaScript on their websites that report to a combined analytics account. The Digital Analytics Program has privacy controls that anonymize visitor addresses and restrict data sharing.
Access to the account is shared within the federal government, and much of its data is shared publicly on analytics.usa.gov. The Digital Analytics Program also regularly publishes a list of around 4,000 participating websites that have reported visitor data in the preceding 2 weeks.
Pulse measures participation in the simplest way possible: by comparing the .gov domain list to the list of participating websites published by the Digital Analytics Program. It's not rocket science, but in the future we'd like to automate this process using the analytics-reporter tool we created for analytics.usa.gov.
Measuring HTTPS in .gov
Enforcing strong HTTPS is an important baseline for government websites, and is in the process of becoming the baseline for the web at large.
HTTPS is simple enough to detect, but characterizing HTTPS support for a domain, precisely and reliably, is trickier than you might expect.
We lean heavily on the open source site-inspector, a command line tool written in Ruby. site-inspector measures various useful things about websites, and was originally written by Ben Balter to analyze .gov domains.
To get the precision we wanted, we needed to take into account several subtle things about domains:
Domains have 4 possible "endpoints" — https://www, https://, http://www, and http:// — which may each exhibit very different behavior. Describing a domain's HTTPS support means detecting which endpoint is "canonical," as well as looking holistically at which endpoints redirect to others.
A domain's HTTPS certificate might be issued for an invalid hostname (e.g. a248.e.akamai.net). In this case, HTTPS is likely an unsupported way to access the domain.
A domain's HTTPS certificate might have an incomplete or untrusted chain (e.g. missing intermediates, or a private root certificate), in which case HTTPS is likely a supported way to access the domain.
A domain might set an HSTS policy for www, but neglect to apply one to the bare domain, negating HSTS policy for its other subdomains.
A domain might support HTTPS with a valid certificate, but have a policy of "downgrading" users by redirecting away from HTTPS to HTTP.
We use site-inspector to look at all of the above factors (and many more) and calculate a bunch of helpful things about a domain's HTTPS support. If you really want to dive deeply into the methodology, you can read the original work discussion.
To measure HTTPS quality, we lean on SSL Labs. SSL Labs' grading system has become a widely respected, universally referenced gauge of HTTPS quality. (Here's the report for Pulse itself.)
We used ssllabs-scan, an open source client for the SSL Labs API, to collect the top-level grade along with some common relevant issues that are worth addressing (such as forward secrecy, or the use of SHA-1 signatures).
We're still in the process of fully documenting the tools we used. If you're interested in using any of it in your own work, and you have questions about how to get started, ring in on GitHub. We're an open source team, and we'd love your contributions!
Pulse is clearly a small and simple website, but we think it's a promising foundation for celebrating (and motivating) the U.S. government's progress on making world-class websites and online services.
We're thrilled we had the opportunity to work with the Office of Government-wide Policy here at GSA to get Pulse started, and we hope others find it useful. Feel free to leave feedback on the project so far, and where to take Pulse next!

The Insecurity of Secret IT Systems by Bruce Schneier
Sunday February 16th, 2014 at 4:21 PM
We now know a lot about the security of the Rapiscan 522 B x-ray system used to scan carry-on baggage in airports worldwide. Billy Rios, director of threat intelligence at Qualys, got himself one and analyzed it. And he presented his results at the Kaspersky Security Analyst Summit this week.
It's worse than you might have expected:
It runs on the outdated Windows 98 operating system, stores user credentials in plain text, and includes a feature called Threat Image Projection used to train screeners by injecting .bmp images of contraband, such as a gun or knife, into a passenger carry-on in order to test the screener's reaction during training sessions. The weak logins could allow a bad guy to project phony images on the X-ray display.
While this is all surprising, it shouldn't be. These are the same sort of problems we saw in proprietary electronic voting machines, or computerized medical equipment, or computers in automobiles. Basically, whenever an IT system is designed and used in secret – either actual secret or simply away from public scrutiny – the results are pretty awful.
I used to decry secret security systems as "security by obscurity." I now say it more strongly: "obscurity means insecurity."
Security is a process. For software, that process is iterative. It involves defenders trying to build a secure system, attackers -- criminals, hackers, and researchers -- defeating the security, and defenders improving their system. This is how all mass-market software improves its security. It's the best system we have. And for systems that are kept out of the hands of the public, that process stalls. The result looks like the Rapiscan 522 B x-ray system.
Smart security engineers open their systems to public scrutiny, because that's how they improve. The truly awful engineers will not only hide their bad designs behind secrecy, but try to belittle any negative security results. Get ready for Rapiscan to claim that the researchers had old software, and the new software has fixed all these problems. Or that they're only theoretical. Or that the researchers themselves are the problem. We've seen it all before.
Always open. Always public. It is the only way.

It's not surprising in the least, my question is how do we change the industry to fix the problem?

Q: Binding gridview from sql table but this binding not for particular table it keeps on changing depending on user input I have a table called TableExplorer which contains other table's names and their respective column names.
For example: table Customer may have 5 columns but in TableExplorer I may mention only 2 column names out of 5.
User send me the table name in query string, my job is to find that table name whether it is present or not in TableExplorer which I mentioned initially. If the user mentioned table is present then I should bind that table to a gridview and that gridview should have functionality like edit, delete, update. Finally any operation like edit, delete or update made by user should reflect in the respective table as mentioned by the user.

*

*Database used : SQL Server 2008 R2

*Programming language : C#, ASP.NET

Thanks in advance for helping.

A: Are you using WebForms? I'm far from being a WebForms expert but this is what I'd do:
You create different pages with GridView control, one for each table that you might want to bind, eg. Customer table. You create the CRUD operation for this GridView, Insert, Update, Delete. You create parameters for all the columns that the user might need, some of them could be invisible.
The user goes to his selection page, he choses a table and a list of columns and press Submit his request. Whenever you receive the  query string you do 2 things:

*

*Identify what table your user is asking and load the right page, if available. Maybe you can load only the specific GridView control in a specific  using Ajax. Or maybe you can simple load another page.

*Get the list of columns that the user wants to see in his grid from the querystring. Before showing the grid to him you keep these columns visible and hide/remove from the gridview every other column. You must pass this parameter to your insert/update methods as well.

I think this is a good solution to start, assuming you don't have a list of hundreds of tables, I wouldn't try to create something completely dynamic.

Christopher Kane S/S 2015
By Adam Monday 16th Jun, 2014
"So much of what I do is led by drawing; if something looks good on paper it usually looks good in real life," says Christopher Kane. "I had started with the idea of 'flip book' pages in the women's Autumn-Winter collection, where the pages themselves were built into dresses – this had started as a drawing. I liked the idea so much I wanted to do more with it. In the men's collection the 'pages' are scattered and are the basis for the graphic prints. Besides this illustrated quality, with lots of contrasting graphic lines, there are neon colours – I go back to them again and again – while the prints have been expanded into the tailoring and outerwear for the first time."
With its signature graphic thrust, the men's collection explores this graphic sensibility more completely than ever for Spring-Summer 2015. With its abstracted, 'page turning' prints, metamorphosing and subverting traditional pinstripes, the collection concentrates on a decorative element without sacrificing structure. Tailoring features precision cutting and traditional motifs in the form of nipped in waist jackets and peaked lapels, with a concentration on the new cut of trousers. At the same time, bold prints and patterns extend from signature sweaters, shirts and t-shirts to the tailoring and new, reversible outerwear for the first time.
Silhouettes are layered with contrasting graphics, where bold linear patterns predominate. Checkerboard and harlequin knits are found in the shape of sporty polo shirts. A strong sense of colour, particularly neon yellow, deep blue and vivid red, is contrasted against black.
Fabric experimentation continues in the collection, with the natural contrasted against the artificial. New matte washes feature on jeans in the collection, with a concentration on a new cut. Textured wool jacquards run through suiting and outerwear, with ultra- fine cashmere-cotton knits and light summer silk shirting. Reflective techno fabric is used in coats, while new bonded prints with metallic foils are found as a recurring motif on sweaters.
A full leather goods line is introduced for men for the first time this season. Bags feature in simple, graphic shapes, in the colours of this season, with the Christopher Kane 'safety buckle' fastening – originating from the designer's very first collection.
Altogether, it makes this season's offering the most complete masculine wardrobe by the designer to date.

Why Do I Need A Mobile App For My Business? - Exarcplus Mobile Apps Pvt Ltd.
This is a common question which is running in many of the business owners minds, acctualy think it from customer perspective, Instead of 'Why do I need a mobile app?' think 'why should I continue doing business with this firm whereas the company in the next street provides all the services through a mobile app?'.
Retaining old customers : We are living in a bad world and you can't expect loyalty from your customer, don't except that a customer will keep doing business with you just because he has done with you 4 or 5 or even 50 times. This is business and business matters service, not the loyalty, where they get better service they will jump for sure.
How does a mobile help you to build these walls?
A mobile app creates a great impact on your brand awareness, say if you are a start-up then you can easily compete with the any of the legendary companies in your market with just a mobile app. Creating brand awareness is made simpler with a mobile app, you know why? That is because there is a default thought in customers mind that a company owning a mobile app is a way bigger than a company which does deal with an app.
All enterprise owners must feel happy about it, where technology has unlocked a good deed for businesses. Sit and relax while your app is creating brand awareness day and night over the exact target audience. We have to accept the fact that Websites are little behind mobile apps.
Retaining the customers is like protecting a pyramid made of a paper cup, needs a lot of concentration to build and after building protecting it is very delicate were even one small wind will break your pyramid and even if one falls there are a lot of possibilities for others to follow.
Mobile apps are dominating to the market standards, it is just because it keeps the people in comfort zone, so if you don't keep them, then your competitors will.
I'll give you a perfect example, e-commerce. Five years back when a mobile phone was booming if we wanted to buy a mobile phone we use to go to the mobile showroom, at that point of time all knew that smartphones are going rule the market, so many investors invested in mobile phone showroom, then comes the bang !!!
Online shopping, people started to like it and it went on a big hit, you might online shopping went to hit through websites, yes you are right but that is past mobile app era has overlapped the website era.
To the matter of fact, Mobile apps are performing a way bigger than highly responsive websites, Why do think legendary e-commerce companies are providing special offers to app users, It is because once you put your app into your customer's phone then they will automatically keep doing business with you. Mobile app builds a wall around your paper cup pyramid.
By now you should have understood that a mobile app for your business is no more a luxury but it has evolved to mandatory.

It takes courage for a law professor to stand up for her values when she is being publicly condemned by her fellow faculty members, the dean of her law school, student groups, and a media mob. This is what U Penn law professor Amy Wax has done in the wake of her explosive op-ed, "Paying the price for breakdown of the country's bourgeois culture" (Philadelphia Enquirer, Aug. 9, 2017). In the piece, Wax and her co-author Larry Alexander presented some uncontroversial facts about the relationship between stable, two-parent homes and positive outcomes for children. They also reprimanded an upper class that no longer seems willing to preach the importance of traditional values. Some of Wax's colleagues responded to the op-ed piece with alternative theories of why poverty is entrenched, but the overwhelming message of an open letter – signed by 33 U Penn professors – was that Wax had committed an intellectual crime deserving of censure and public shaming. The debate over Wax's praise for "bourgeois values" goes deeper than her arguments for a return to norms of hard work and personal responsibility. At stake is the freedom to challenge or contradict academic groupthink, which equates any identification of legitimate advantages with an apology for unfair privilege. If the students demanding that Wax be demoted get their way, then professors everywhere will feel a "chill" on voicing their own unpopular opinions. Wax joins Bob for the full hour to describe the anatomy of a campus intimidation campaign, and explain why she continues to speak her mind.

Faden Quartz Crystal Sterling Silver Pendant JFQU15 58mm x 24mm x 9mm Faden quartz are tabular quartz crystals with a fuzzy white line running through the crystal. The term "faden" is the German word for thread, describing this line. They are highly programmable, making it possible to increase their potency. They can also be used to repair damage to the aura or energy field. Quartz is an an energy amplifier and transmitter, and is said to bring the energy and harmony of the stars into the soul. It is thought to facilitate communication with ascended masters, teachers, and healers. It can be programmed as a "constant prayer or intention generator", sending our highest thoughts and wishes out to the Universe.

Q: Neural Networks: How to do class prediction from murky labels I'm conducting an experiment with the MNIST digit data - handwritten digits 0-9, each example composed of 28x28 bitmap of pixels.
Imagine a collection of examples is drawn at random without class labels, and submitted to a third party (or "oracle") for classification, but instead of receiving example-wise labels, the oracle only tells you what proportion of the selected examples belong to each class. So maybe in a given bag of examples you know that 15% are "2", 45% are "9" and 40% are "3", but not which is which. To be clear, every example in the bag has a single, discrete "correct" answer. You can draw as many random bags as you'd like for submission, however degenerate cases aren't allowed (e.g. a bag of 1 example).
I feel confident that I could build a convnet to learn summary vectors from the input examples, but what I'd really like is the ability to "play back" the convnet in order to, say, see what it would project for 100% "2".
Can this be done? Is there a better approach?

A: You are referring to the prior class distribution of the categories in a collection. The prior distribution is implicitly given, by means of the training set provided to the neural network.
The play-back option is called inverse mapping, en is computationally intractable for a regular feed-forward neural network. Instead, the convolutional deep-learning neural networks do learn prototypical patterns. I recommend you to train deep learning neural networks (LeCunn-style) and study their prototypical vectors, after successful learning has been achieved.


I'm not here to talk about The Guilt Trip right now. Barbra Streisand is fun and looks radiant in it, but overall, it's a meh experience.
I'd rather discuss Funny Lady, the 1975 sequel to Funny Girl, which is moody, opulent, and even more filled with Barbraisms than Richard Simmons.
In fact, it becomes clear quickly into the movie that it has very little to do with Fanny Brice and everything to do with Barbra Streisand.
This is most evident with the lavish "Great Day" number, set on a glittery deco set, with Babs intoning the song as if it were a track from one of her pop albums of the '70s.
The production number starts with slow, loving, high-pitched tones, all very Barbra, in a pseudo pop-star-goes-semi-gospel kind of way.
And then the tempo changes and everyone starts wildly clapping as our star desperately tries to get down and percolate in a rather embarrassing manner.
Still, the whole thing is mesmerizing, especially because Babs is unafraid to put her personal stamp on the proceedings, and the fabulous dancers manage to keep their dignity throughout.
This clip must be seen to be disbelieved.
Watching it might even be some sort of guilt trip–as in guilty pleasure.


Description, syntax, usage, attributes and examples of the MathML tags in HTML 5 HTML-5.com is a great guide for web developers. TV Series & Actors and Actresses. Follow TV Series and HTML 5 on Google+.
Regular HTML code can be used to display mathematical symbols inline with other text using HTML Unicode characters (for which the Unicode math symbols reference may come in handy). HTML 5 also supports MathML, which is used to describe mathematical formulas using XML code. MathML not only determines how a formula is display, but also describes the actual calculation.
Here is an actual working demo of the MathML example code below.
To install the MathML fonts in Windows 7, unzip the file then select all of the STIX*.otf files and drag/copy/drop them into the Fonts Page of the Control Panel.
global attributes The common HTML attributes can be used on any of the MathML tags.
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" The xmlns attribute declares the namespace for all of the MathML elements. Since the xmlns attribute is inherited by child elements and descendants, it does not need to be coded on other tags in the content of the math element, unless they are in a different namespace such as the HTML namespace.
Here is an example of MathML code. The xmlns attribute on the <math> tag sets the default namespace for all of its descendants. Since the names of any HTML elements need to be in the HTML namespace, the <a> tag for the attribute link must also include an xmlns attribute.
See MathML demo above for how this code looks in your browser.

MADRID (AP) — Conor McGregor is under investigation in Spain after being accused of physical assault in Ibiza, court officials said Wednesday.
The case had been closed but a judge ordered it to be reopened after receiving more details about the alleged incident.
The court did not give any more detail about the case involving the Irish mixed martial arts superstar.
Spanish media said the investigation is related to an altercation with a woman on a yacht after a party in Ibiza.

Neuro-Lawyering: What Do Our Behaviors Say?
By Leona Frank on March 14, 2016 ·
Every year, law.com publishes a mash-up of "Lawyers Behaving Badly." Some stories are horrific, and others defy logic and common sense. Have you ever wondered what made them do it? Have you ever wondered how someone could risk all they have to win? Have you ever wondered what the whole story is? Wait no longer, here are your answers.
In October 2015, I attended the ABA Commission on Lawyer Assistance Programs' (COLAP) annual meeting in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I serve as one of the first members of the ABA Law Practice Division's Attorney Well-Being Committee, created in 2015. The committee has four subcommittees: Law Practice Management, Physical Wellness, Mental Health/Addiction, and Law Students/Young Lawyers. I learned about the work done at COLAP and helped identify where the Law Practice Division can further assist our members.
One presentation, "Addiction: It's a Brain Disease," by Dr. Navjyot Bedi stood out to me. Dr. Bedi spoke about the medical science of the brain and how it directs our behaviors. He explained in simple terms how my brain controls my behavior, and how it is impossible for me to control my brain. Since the art of advocacy requires persuasion and influencing people, understanding people's behavior makes great business sense. If we learn to "read the behaviors" of our clients, opposing counsel and colleagues, we better understand how best to create innovative marketing and progressive technology that resonates. We also develop strong firm management cultures which then serve as the diligent keepers of firm finances.
The intersection of neuroscience and the law gained widespread interest in the 1990s. Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary science that collaborates with other fields, including chemistry, cognitive science, computer science, engineering, linguistics, mathematics, medicine, genetics, physics, philosophy and psychology. Think: old science marries to become new. In 1690, John Locke said that we are a "blank slate" when we are born, and develop exclusively from environmental influences. Charles Darwin, the father of evolutionary biology, debunked the blank slate premise in 1859 when he published The Origin of Species, explaining the diversity of humans through evolution or nature. Both Darwin and Locke's theories incorporate into neuroscience to scientifically conclude that no person is defined solely by nature or nurture. Both are necessary to understand human behavior.
In Dr. Bedi's presentation, I learned that the brain's "reward pathway" prewires at birth for food, water, sex and child rearing. The reward pathway exists to reward us for activities consistent with our survival. These survival instincts are innate in all of us. In an ideal world, we would be born with perfect wiring, avoiding any need for the law to direct and guide behaviors. As lawyers, we know all too well that no human is perfect, including us. Our imperfections create difficulties in the practice, especially when lawyers become addicted to alcohol or drugs.
Dr. Bedi shed light on the development of our brains to help understand why some develop addiction to alcohol and drugs while others do not. After birth, six "nurture" factors can alter the reward pathway for addiction:
Social factors and availability of drugs
Environmental factors or trauma
Co-occurring psychiatric disorders
Disabling medical conditions
In an ideal world, we would have a biography for each human that we come in contact with, giving us necessary background to understand the "complete" person. This is the difficulty when the discussion of lawyer character and fitness arises. The ABA took great strides in 2015 when the House of Delegates voted to urge state and territorial bar licensing entities to eliminate any questions about mental health history, diagnoses or treatment when determining character and fitness to bar admission. The questions should focus instead on conduct or behavior that impairs an applicant's ability to practice law in a competent, ethical and professional manner. By this action, the ABA has subscribed to the understanding that lawyers are defined by our behaviors, which our brains control.
Neuroscience, as Dr. Bedi explained, provides the key to understanding lawyers as fallible humans that are just as easily influenced through the six factors above. For healthy lawyer brains which lead to healthy lawyer behaviors, it is vital that we address the well being of lawyers in totality to how our individual brain reward pathways operate. Nature and nurture both operate to influence our profession, and as an association, it is comforting to see the forward movement toward the simple recognition that lawyers are human, too.

Q: Silverlight Image Flip Animation In my silverlight app, I have two images of equal dimension.
When the user clicks on the image I would like to animate the transition of one image to the other as if it were a piece of paper being flipped with the first image on the front and the other on the back.
I haven't worked with silverlight animation, yet so I don't know where to begin.

A: Basically you will need two Storybards to begin with. Each Storyboard will be using PlaneProjection (in this case I am using RotationX which rotates the images around the x-axis of rotation) to do the flipping animation.
In the following example, I have created FlippingDown and FlippingUp two Storyboards. I attached a ControlStoryboardAction behavior to each of them, they will be triggered when MouseLeftButtonDown is fired.
You'll need to reference System.Windows.Interactivity and Microsoft.Expression.Interactions.

The Student Council has announced that the 29th annual Milton S. Eisenhower Symposium will look critically at the movies and their relationship to society. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the cinema's birth.
Christopher Aldrich, president of the Reel World film series, and Matthew Gross, director of the Snark film series, and symposium co-chairmen, are planning a series of lectures, panel discussions, movie screenings and special events that will provide a comprehensive understanding of cinema's role in the world.
The Aldrich/Gross proposal was one of 18 submitted for consideration.
As part of the symposium's planning, Dean of Homewood Student Affairs Larry Benedict has agreed to renovate and upgrade the Shriver Hall film projection facilities. Although details are not yet final, upgrades are expected to include a 40-foot-wide screen (bigger than the one at the historic Senator Theatre) and Dolby surround sound. These and other changes would make Shriver Hall one of the 20 best movie theaters in the country, Aldrich said.
The MSE Symposium is completely run by undergraduates. Proposals for a wide range of ideas are submitted in the fall to a Student Council committee. The chairs of the winning proposal then take responsibility for fund-raising--Aldrich expects their budget will  top $55,000--formalizing the program, selecting and inviting speakers, dealing with lawyers and agents, organizing the event and arranging publicity.
The MSE Symposium is scheduled to begin the last week in September.
