Donald Trump Voices Support For Sisi Amid Human Rights Crackdown
"We are very much behind President Sisi," Trump said.
Steve Holland
WASHINGTON, April 3 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump moved to reset U.S. relations with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi on Monday after the prior Obama administration's strained ties, giving him firm backing and vowing to work together to fight Islamic militants.
"I just want to let everybody know in case there was any doubt that we are very much behind President Sisi. He's done a fantastic job in a very difficult situation. We are very much behind Egypt and the people of Egypt," Trump said in an Oval Office meeting with the Egyptian leader.
The trip was Sisi's first official U.S. visit since being elected president in 2014. Trump's predecessor, Barack Obama, never extended an invitation.
Obama froze aid to Egypt for two years after Sisi, then a general, overthrew President Mohamed Mursi in mid-2013 after mass protests against Mursi's rule. Mursi, a Muslim Brotherhood member, had been elected the previous year.
The one-on-one meeting between Trump and Sisi, followed by a separate gathering with top aides, showed how intent the new U.S. president is on rebooting the bilateral relationship and building on the strong connection the two presidents established when they first met in New York last September.
"I just want to say to you, Mr President, that you have a great friend and ally in the United States, and in me," Trump said.
Sisi said he appreciated that Trump has been "standing very strong ... to counter this evil ideology."
While Trump noted the United States and Egypt "have a few things" they do not agree on, he made no public airing of U.S. concerns about human rights in Egypt.
Rights groups have called for the release of Aya Hijazi, an Egyptian-American who works with street children and was arrested in May 2014 on human trafficking charges.
Hijazi has been held in custody for 33 months in violation of Egyptian law, which states that the maximum period for pretrial detention is 24 months.
A senior administration official said the subject of Hijazi did not come up in the meeting with Trump, Sisi and their advisers but said the detention is an issue of concern and a case that is being watched closely by the Trump administration.
White House spokesman Sean Spicer said the two presidents had an "honest discussion focused on areas of cooperation" and that they discussed "both areas of cooperation and of concern."

U.S. President Donald Trump welcomes Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi at the White House.
At the United Nations in New York, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, said the Trump administration is not backing away from human rights "because they fully support me speaking about human rights in the Security Council."
Human rights groups have estimated that Sisi's government has detained at least 40,000 political prisoners.
Egypt has long been one of Washington's closest allies in the Middle East, receiving $1.3 billion in U.S. military aid annually. It is fighting an Islamist insurgency in Sinai in which hundreds of Egyptian soldiers and police have been killed.
A U.S. official said Sisi would find a White House ready to soften U.S. criticism of Egypt on human rights and to work on counter-terrorism but unwilling to provide additional aid to the most populous Arab nation.
"He's going to get an end to finger-wagging. We're not giving him any more money," said the U.S. official, who spoke on condition of anonymity before Sisi's meetings with Trump.
"He's going to be disappointed because he wants more assistance and he's not going to get it," the official added, saying it was not yet clear whether Egypt would escape a cut in its foreign aid as part of the Trump administration's plan to cut the overall State Department budget by 28.7 percent.

Home News VE Day and the trashing of Churchill
VE Day and the trashing of Churchill
By Chris McGovern
FRIDAY May 8 will be the 75th anniversary of VE Day. The Early May Bank Holiday has been moved in order to celebrate it. Will the government use its home-schooling support package to educate our locked-down children about the significance of the day? Will it, in particular, redress an anti-Churchill bias that now permeates much of education?
If so, it is to be hoped that it makes a better job of the commemoration than it did on the 50th anniversary in 1995. On that occasion a VE Day teaching video was sent to every school in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The 34-minute primary school version provided Churchill with only 14 seconds of indistinct coverage towards the end. It was more concerned about punching home the message that 'it was quite sexist in the war'.
The secondary school video also restricted mention of Churchill to a few seconds at the end, largely in the context of his losing the 1945 general election. Whilst Churchill's name was not mentioned in the coverage of events to 1945 other leaders were highlighted – Chamberlain, Hitler (16 times), Mussolini, Daladier, Stalin.
Some years later Churchill was voted the greatest Briton of all time.
Subsequently, Mary Seacole, a Jamaican 'nurse' of Crimean War fame, was voted the greatest black Briton.
A Victorian, she held strikingly similar views to Churchill on those matters of race and Empire that are nowadays used to demonise him. She described the Turks, for example, as degenerate Arabs and as worse than fleas and she was quite happy to use the n***** word to describe black people.
No one is asking whether Seacole deserves her venerated status. A statue to her was unveiled a few years ago in the grounds of St Thomas' Hospital, opposite the Houses of Parliament.
Churchill, too, has his statues but they are as likely to be denigrated as respected. Even BBC newsreader Huw Edwards felt free to have a bash, live on air, during the State Opening of parliament:
Winston Churchill there, the statue on the left, and for me, far more important, David Lloyd George on the right-hand side.
I'm not taking any complaints from viewers on that, ok?
Can I just say that?
In comparison with what is going on in classrooms, however, this is small beer. As we approach the 75th anniversary of VE Day, the Sunday Express has highlighted how schools are being encouraged to disparage our wartime leader. Under the headline 'Winston Churchill "demonised" in schools as "brainwashed" pupils told he's a war criminal', it reported: 'Secondary school pupils are being taught Winston Churchill was a "war criminal" who wanted to start a Third World War.
'Lesson plans shared by thousands of teachers also suggest he made lame, drunken speeches and was less important to British history than Sir Bob Geldof.'
The model lesson plan has been made available by Tes, an educational version of Pravda (Truth) during its Soviet heyday that, along with the Guardian, is regarded as holy writ by many teachers.
The idea here is for Churchill to be put on trial – hero or villain? Weighing up evidence is, of course, a historian's stock-in-trade, but not in this way. Through carefully selecting and manipulating it, classroom history is invariably a one-sided 'show trial' and never more so than with Churchill.
The education establishment, the 'Blob', understands full well that if it can use classroom history lessons to bring down Churchill, the whole edifice of British identity will soon come tumbling down, too. Society can then be rebuilt in the best authoritarian tradition. It is succeeding.
And do not be fooled into thinking that this distortion of history to undermine Churchill is a 'one-off' aberration. It is not. It is symptomatic of what has been going on in schools for some years.
A many-times reprinted textbook for secondary schools is Longman's Minds and Machines, Britain 1750-1900. The authors explain how they put together a package of evidence about people in the past: 'We have tried to imagine what they would tell us if they were to come back from the dead.'
Pupils are furnished with quotations from imaginary zombies purporting to be historical figures. On this fake evidence historical conclusions are supposed to be drawn on such matters as the British Empire. Amongst the authors of this dangerous tosh were senior government advisers with whom I sat on curriculum committees as a lone voice of dissent.
At a time of frenzied educational iconoclasm, Churchill's reputation does not stand a chance. The government will be cheerleaders on VE Day but do not be fooled. World War II in general and Churchill in particular, along with all the other landmarks of our national past, are relegated to the status of 'examples (non-statutory)' in the latest version of the national curriculum for history.
Boris Johnson is a biographer of our wartime leader. He should commemorate the 75th anniversary of VE Day by restoring statutory status to teaching about Churchill and, indeed, about the World Wars in general. This would give them the same status awarded to 'early Islamic civilisation' or 'Mayan civilisation' or Benin (West Africa).
More importantly, Ofsted inspectors should report on whether history is being taught in a balanced and unbiased way. The subject, certainly, should not be used as a vehicle for brainwashing children into seeing Churchill as a potential war criminal.

An application for converting .graf files (an older format exported by the Linux version of Graffiti Analysis) into .gml.
You can see some still shots here on Flickr and even download the tags for your own viewing pleasure.
For this there were a few tasks to overcome. The Graffiti Analysis capture and playback software has reached version 3, but only for Mac's (at the moment). Version 2, which is available for Windows and Linux is still very capable. However, for Linux, the files created in the capture application don't work with the playback application. They create their own .graf files and the playback application can only handle .gml files. d'oh!
Luckily I was able to enlist the skills of the ever talented Andrew Thomas, who created a Processing script that converts between the two files (tested on version 1.1). You can download this and try it for yourself. It hasn't failed me so far!
As I was using this rather tricky technique of capturing the light I had to strap a few lights to a glove to ensure enough light was emitted and captured.

Post-election Nigeria, can you tell us what the economy is like now that the elections are over?
The economy in terms of investor confidence when we say that political intrigues have to some extent been addressed, one of the concerns that the investing public had before the election was whether Nigeria was going to conduct a successful election or whether the election was going to lead to a political crisis. One can comfortably say now that there is not going to be post-election political crisis. So, on that note, one would say that some of the concerns in the political environment have been addressed.
The second factor in terms of policy environment, it is safe to say that the policy environment is still relatively uncertain. We should expect the government to dissolve the cabinet in the near future, probably around the end of the first term of the government and to reconstitute the cabinet. It is when the new cabinet is considered can investors begin to have ideas about what the policies of the government would look like. So, in terms of policy environment, one would say that we are still uncertain about the economic decisions the government will take as a result of the conclusion of the election or inauguration of the new government. So, that one is still an uncertain quantity but in terms of political risks, one would say that that has to a great extent regulated after the conclusion of the national election.
Some persons have gone to the tribunal to contest the outcome of the elections, Atiku Abubakar inclusive. What impact will these cases pending before the tribunal have on the economy as it is as many believed that investors would still be skeptical about the outcome of the tribunal especially as it affects presidential election?
What I think would happen is that the outcome of the cases at the tribunal should be the court implying the change of government, that is when we should talk of the effect on the economic environment. The simple reason is that currently, we are dealing with the continuation of an existing government, so, one could at best say that one is not expecting any major change as it stands today because it is the same government, the same economic philosophy. But achieve certainty will be after the inauguration of the new cabinet, you now see the orientation of those who were brought into the government after the expiration of this current tenure.
But the fact that they are in court, because we are dealing with an existing government which is continuing should not cause any major panic, in fact even if the court judgement comes and the court judgement is against the current government, it will not create panic because at least, we have gone through an election and the election is where the concerns were. Whatever is the outcome of the legal contest whether it is in favour or against the current government, I don't expect it to lead to any major political upheaval.
You told me in one of your interviews with me that we should expect governance in this country this as from the third quarter of this year owing to the fact that politics will dominate the affairs of the country. Are you still maintaining that position or are you shifting from that now that elections have come and gone?
We have dealt with the first quarter, first quarter was actually an electioneering period, elections and then we are now going into the second quarter, tribunal will start sitting in the second quarter. Depending on the outcome of the tribunal, we will still see some level of uncertainty. And then, beyond the tribunal sitting, it also has to do with the dissolution of the current cabinet at the state and federal levels and appointment of the new members of the state and federal executive councils and then, we also know that political actors will be hustling for political appointments at the conclusion of the election which we think is already going on now.
So, the president and the Governors-elect will now have their energy and attentions channeled on who to appoint. We are also seeing a lot of hustling and horse trading going on in the national assembly for those who want to occupy leadership positions in the national assembly. These are factors that are going to engage the attention of the political leaders and take them away from the economic management and we know that the inauguration of the national assembly will be in June, so, clearly, the hustling and the horse trading will continue up till the end of May. When the leadership of the national assembly will be elected in June, then you are almost talking about the end of the second quarter, remember that the second quarter ends in June. I mean, it is when the NASS is inaugurated that the president can send the list of Ministers and the Governors will send the list of Commissioners. So, the earliest the list will come up will be in June before they are appraised and approved by different legislative houses, I mean for the federal executive council, the senate, for the states, the state house of assembly, will be by the end of June.
So, inauguration and resumption of duty will be earliest July or late June. So, you can always agree with me that the second quarter would have passed. Then they need to come up with their own policies and you could possibly witness a situation where they will also seek for supplementary budget or for the review of the budget. So, that would have taken up to the third quarter of this year. Policy formulation before we start implementation will take almost a whole of third quarter. So, in effect, governance will start at the earliest, towards the end of the third quarter or early part of the fourth quarter.
We are in the second quarter and the national budget is not yet ready. Is there the possibility of the present national assembly passing the budget before the end of their tenure?
Well, they can pass it possibly before the end of their tenure depending on the back and forth movement that we will see. But in any case, even if they pass it before the end of the 8th assembly, you will be talking of towards the tail end of their tenure. But even if they passed it, I don't expect any serious implementation by Ministers who will be leaving on the 29th of May. So, even if the budget is passed towards the end of this month and assuming that the President signs it into lawn and he has no objection to whatever they passed, then, implementation will actually be by the next cabinet. So, head or tail, budget implementation this will start by the third quarter of this year.
Buhari has mooted the idea of reversing the Nigeria budget cycle from what is obtainable now to start from January to December each. How can this be possible?
There is nothing that impossible if they set their mind on it but we have dealt with these promises from the time of Obasanjo when we passed the Fiscal Responsibility Act but it has been observed in abeyance. So, until they implement it, then we will now know the budget will now run from January to December. I mean, if we can run a budget that starts from June, that the President start implementation by June, we can also reverse that and go back and start from January, all we just need is start the process much earlier than we do and hope that the level of engagement at the point of generating the input in the budget is higher so that the national assembly members will have to lobby for whatever project that they want to lobby from the executive so that it comes from the executive during budget presentation and not the national assembly members inputing their own items into the budget.
So, the key thing is that there must be high level of engagement. I hope that by the time the members of the national assembly leadership is elected into office, that there is a rapport between the national assembly and the executive unlike what we used to have in the past when the national assembly was actually the opposition party.
Late last month, we were greeted with the plans by the federal government to initiate a 50% increment in VAT to fund the new minimum, a development which many well-meaning Nigerians including the former Lagos State Governor, Bola, Tinubu have kicked against. What is your take on this planned increment in VAT?
In the first place, we have to look at the fact that the comment was made by the Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service and that comment was not a categorical statement. It was an indication that he was making a suggestion. It is the Minister that can vary the VAT rate according to the VAT Act but I think that before that will even happen, because VAT as it stands today was contained in the enabling law, so I want to believe that they have to go to the national assembly for a change in VAT rate.
But should the government want to take that route, a couple of things will happen. One, it will help government bolster its tax revenue because the Value Added Tax is the easiest tax to collect but aside from that, on the flip side, it could reduce the level of consumption because I will increase the cost of goods and services and therefore reduce the level of aggregate consumption and cut off the aggregate demand which will further slowdown the rate of economic recovery or economic growth. So, it has a dampening effect on the level of productive activity because it will reduce the level of aggregate demand. But on the positive side of it, it has the potential of increasing the government revenue and helping the government moderate its deficit.
Looking at the recent reduction in the MPR by the Central Bank of Nigeria, what do you make of it and what impact will it have on the economy as a whole?
But what the Monetary Policy Committee has done is to send a clear message; they have sent a message on the policy orientation of the monetary authorities to say that we are shifting from contractionary monetary policy to expansionary or accommodative monetary policy, even if the outcome is at the expense of the increase in the inflation rate. So, once you have that position, clearly, it gives economic managers or economic agents an indication that the government will be pushing for lower cost of fund and that they are ready to support the real sector. So, you will see that the shift in policy orientation or policy direction will have a positive effect and it gives some level of confidence in economic agents that right now, the monetary authorities are pushing for lower cost of fund even if that is not likely achieved.
Would that translate to the lending rate of the commercial banks tilting downwards?
It may not necessarily but it will lead to banks trying to rebrand their deposit base to push for lower interest rates and deposits. Then for large ticket borrowers, those who have strong bargaining powers, they could also renegotiate their borrowing rate but for the Small and Medium scale entrepreneurs who have very weak bargaining powers, they may not still get lower rate unless there is a general drop in the interest rate in the economy and for that to happen, then government borrowing must come down so that the bank will have excess liquidity. That is the only thing that will compel bank to consider soft prime credit. But as long as government's borrowing is still quite high, I do not see how that drop in MPR of 50 basis points will have material effect on lending to the small and medium scale entrepreneurs.
Do you believe that the TSA policy of the federal government was responsible for the commercial banks' inability to have available funds to lend to the business community?
You will not blame it squarely on the Treasury Single Account which has been there for the last four years or thereabout but we have to realize that look, the Treasury Single Account summed up the level of liquidity in the economy and overtly reduced the level of loanable funds available to the banks. But the other factor that constrained the banks from lending, one is the general high cost of doing business in the country. If you look at how a bank arrived at its all in wasted average cost of fund, it will add the direct cost of fund which is the deposit rate and add it up to overhead cost to arrive at what you call the All in Wasted Average Cost of fund. We call it All in WAC. It is the All in WAC that the bank must recover, so, that becomes its minimum cost of fund and it must pass it on to the consumers, the borrowers.
And then, you also have to look at the growth of the economy has been very sluggish, so, because of this sluggish growth of the economy and the high incidences of the non-performing loans which has gotten to more than 18%, so, the banks have to factor in the cost of delinquency in arriving at their All in Wasted lending rate and these are the factors the banks have to consider. There will be improvement in the level of risk in the economy if the economy is growing at a faster rate because economic operators will be able to generate more revenue and be able to do their obligations and that is where the level of the non-performing loans is going to decline and banks will increase their own lending.
So, are of the opinion that the money in the TSA account be returned to the commercial banks so that they can have loanable fund to the public?
It wouldn't be a straight forward yes or no but I think we should continue to tweak with the model of the Single Treasury Account so that the funds are not completely stabilized, they are productive in the economy and there are several ways the funds can be made productive in the economy without necessarily having them sitting idle in the commercial banks and the government keeps paying interests on borrowing of its own money.
Finally sir, this CBN policy withdrawing access to FOREX to textile importers, what do you make of this policy?
The first question we should ask ourselves is do we have enough raw material? Are we self-sufficient? So, if we are not self-sufficient, I think that answers the question. Are we close to self-sufficient that the restriction of access to FOREX will easily compel businesses to right now start production of raw material? The key thing is, do we have comparative advantage, what are the challenges we have been having in that sector.
I know that the government has provided lots of soft credits to operators in that sector and it doesn't seems to have make any material gain in the fortunes of that sector. We need to address holistically, the challenges we are having so that we will have an idea of how to solve their problem. It may just go beyond restriction of access to FOREX because you realize that even if you restrict access to official window of the Foreign Exchange market, they will still be able to access FOREX from the parallel market and they will still land at cost that are above the production cost of the local manufacturers.


In sports, parents impact their children in at least three ways. First, they influence the type of sports they play by creating opportunities to try different sports. Second, they provide financial support by purchasing equipment and driving them to and from practice and games. But probably the least recognized way that parents influence their children is how they "interpret" the event. What parents do or say — and what they don't do or say — impacts how invested and involved their children will be in sport. In this episode, we talk about 6 tips related to how we can best support our children as parents.

In 2009, a few days after we began our honeymoon in Namibia, an email from my cat-sitting sister informed me that she'd spotted a pine marten exploring our apple tree, and attached to prove it were some grainy snaps. We'd seen elephants, giraffes, big cats and other exotic animals in the wild (some of which would later help me gain my LRPS) and superb bush and desert scenery, but I was jealous. One of the UK's rarest animals had sauntered through our garden and I'd missed it.
That afternoon I pulled the five-bar gate (I told you it was rural) into a position where it could be seen from the living room window, smeared the top bar liberally with Nutella, and kept watch. I expected nothing, but as dusk fell a stealthy form climbed up the gate and began to feast. My Pentax was soon in action, but even with the ISO pushed to its 3200 maximum all I gathered were a few brown blurs.
Next evening I was more methodical. The tripod was placed in the window and the Pentax focussed on the gate. Would I be lucky two nights running? Yes! The images were grainy but I was delighted – I had halfway decent pictures of an animal that few people have seen, captured in my own garden. He was a male, one of this year's newborns, a local expert told me.
During the next few months I continued to keep watch. As the days grew longer the ISO became smaller and I was able to lure him into our lilac tree to take portraits with no man-made presence in them. The resultant snaps would never appear on the cover of National Geographic but I was proud.
At last, the day came when good light, an early visit and front cover poses coincided, so it was a pity that I was away photographing puffins in Shetland. The beneficiary was the latest cat-sitter, who'd seen my martens on Flickr and become a friend. His photos were the best of the year. Despite that, we remained friends.
Two weeks later, almost as if our visitor knew that August had begun, we stopped seeing him. The days were getting shorter. I continued to feed him Nutella, plus a more healthy side dish of nuts, raisins and a daily egg, plus the occasional mouse left behind by our cat; most nights the food disappeared. My reward came one April evening when the first sighting of 2010 was made.
But it wasn't last year's visitor – this was another youngster. And after a few weeks of observation I realised we had two visitors (the shape of their bib identifies them) – one male and one female, neither of them last year's diner. There may have been a third but I'm not certain.
Much snapping was carried out during the summer. Visitors were also seen early in the morning and, on one startling occasion, at three in the afternoon. My photos were still not National Geographic standard (shooting through window glass doesn't help) but they improved and one was a runner-up in a Scottish Natural Heritage competition.
Now the days are short but I still sometimes see a shadowy figure tucking into free food and find paw prints in the snow. Maybe this year I'll take the award-winning photos that will become the centrepiece of an ARPS submission.
One thing's for certain – the visitors have ruined me as a serious wildlife photographer. Snapping pine martens from the warmth and comfort of your own home makes it even more difficult to spend time in a cold, damp, draughty hide with no guarantee there'll be anything to see.


The Nazareth Historic District Survey Committee has completed all necessary forms and submitted its final work for the borough's proposed historical district to Greg Ramsey, chief of the Bureau of Historic Preservation in Harrisburg.
If accepted, the district will be listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Final forms included drawing the boundaries on a map of the borough of Nazareth and writing a description of the selected area. The work has been in a two-stage process starting in 1981 when the committee, headed by Evelyn Huth, Angelo Spinoza of Lehigh University and Lance Metz of the Hugh Moore Canal Museum, Easton, submitted the original nomination for the area of Center Square.
Known as the cross of 1771 or New Nazareth, it encompasses a block in each direction from Center Square. Originally laid out in 1771 by the Moravian community, it ushered in the era of private enterprise, although the proprietor had to be a member of the privately owned community and had to receive permission from church officials.
Jacob Christ opened the first business - the manufacture of top hats - in the building at Center Square that now houses La Femme Beauty Shop and state Rep. Leonard Gruppo's office.
On a visit to see the cross of 1771, Ramsey, impressed with the many historic structures in Nazareth, particularly those of Victorian vintage, asked the committee to expand the historic district. Although he suggested that all of Nazareth could be included in such an undertaking, the volunteer group elected to define boundaries in a smaller, more workable area.
The committee's proposal was accepted and has been slightly enlarged since 1983 when the group began the second phase of applying for the nomination as a historic district.
The original committee consisted of Metz and Huth as co-chairmen and members Denise Applegate, Irene Christman, the late Eschor Clewell, former curator of the Whitefield House Museum; Christopher Crook, Linda Crook, Darrell Crook, Beth Sidovar, Spinoza, Alice Yeakel and Ben Walbert, consulting architect.
The committee active in the second phase consists of Spinoza, Metz and Huth as co-chairmen; Walbert, William Moss, Helen Snyder, Dee Krupa, Kathy Unger, Jane Harter, Barbara Brown, Richard Brown and F. Robert Huth.
Assistance in the form of financial aidwas given by the Nazareth Business and Professional Women, Nazareth Moravian Church, Nazareth Heritage Committee and Frank Huth and Sons, insurance company.
The submission covers Nazareth's beginnings as a closed Moravian community, with the bulk of the Moravian buildings concentrated at the Whitefield Tract, Hall Square and a block circumference around Center Square.
Nazareth was a closed Moravian community until 1856. "After 1856, the town was secularized by establishing a borough government on Nov. 27, 1858; all who wanted to settle in the community regardless of their religious affiliation were permitted to do so. With different groups came different tastes and the result was a veritable explosion of architectural styles which, in retrospect, was a graphic illustration of how Nazareth opened up to the outside world," said the committee's application.
The major churches were all built in high style Victorian revival styles, the Italianate, Second Empire and Gothic Revival styles all were introduced. At the end of the century, the cement industry brought a new wave of prosperity into the town, and with it a new style of architecture - Queen Anne. Many houses were constructed or modified according to this style, according to the application.
After World War I, the prosperity of the 1920s found expression in the bungalow style houses built in several developments in Nazareth. George Hahn also began constructing elegant houses in the Colonial Revival style, perhaps some of the finest examples of 20th century architecture in Nazareth. Vernacular styles for houses in the 1920s and '30s continued to be popular, especially because they were less expensive. There have been several modern intrusions of gas stations, banks, firehouses and stores in the historic parts of Nazareth, but, Nazareth maintains a rich and varied architectural heritage.

Effective Pen Tests Follow These 7 Steps
Third-party pen tests are part of every comprehensive security plan. Here's how to get the most from this mandatory investment.
There's little debate about whether penetration tests should be part of a comprehensive cybersecurity plan. It's critical that defensive systems be tested by real-world pros so vulnerabilities and weaknesses can be found and corrected.
Instead, the question is how to get the most from the investment.
In all but the rarest cases, a pen test means having a third party explore the strength of an organization's security. Many of the keys to effectiveness have been repeated as business wisdom so often they've become cliché: Know what you want, know the group you're hiring, communicate clearly, write it down, and have a plan for what you'll do with the results.
[Hear John Sawyer, director of red team services at IOActive, present Getting the Most Out of Penetration Testing and Red Teaming at Interop 2019 next week]
With each of these points, and the others on this list, factors specific to third-party pen tests need to be considered. This list, cherry-picked from conversations, conference panels, Internet articles, and personal experience, include the basics about what an organization needs to think through before launching a third-party pen test. What other factors should be on this list? Let us know in the Comments section, below.

Just got tipped off about an article in this weeks Arts Professional written by jazz blogger, Sebastian Scotney where he lists Whitaker Studio amongst his top five websites! High praise indeed and very flattering. Thank you Sebastian!


My trip to Missouri. Even though it was really difficult (There was a lot I was dealing with.), it was good to go spend time with some of my siblings and nieces and nephews. It all was very bittersweet.
One family that I and my family has gotten close to in the Co-Op 🙂 They're the sweetest family. We're really similar, but different at the same time. They've been such a blessing.
Theater. That's one of the classes I'm taking at Co-Op. I wasn't sure about it the first time I went, but it definitely went up from there 🙂 One of the first classes I volunteered to help write the script. I'm so glad I did ^_^ I had no idea I would enjoy it so much.

Q: what does the numpy vander function do and why use it in a regression? I am trying to under the code written in this module to understand cointegration.
However when I step through the code I am confused by the last line in the section of code below. I have read the documentation of the vander function however I don't really understand what the function is doing?
 def detrend(y, order):
    if order == -1:
       return y
    return OLS(y, np.vander(np.linspace(-1, 1, len(y)), order + 1)).fit().resid

A: The function np.vander returns an array where  the first column is x^(N-1), the second x^(N-2) and so forth. Look this example:
x = np.array([1, 2, 3, 5])
N = 3
np.vander(x, N)

array([[ 1,  1,  1],
   [ 4,  2,  1],
   [ 9,  3,  1],
   [25,  5,  1]])

In your code N= order+1 and X=np.linspace(-1, 1, len(y)).
You can use also "increasing=True" where the first column is x^(0), the second x^(1) and so forth and the last x^(N-1).

Cappadocia. The landscape in the depths of the rock
Exhibition of the 31st edition of the International Carlo Scarpa Prize for Gardens
Saturday 24 October 2020 - Sunday 11 July 2021
Ca' Scarpa, via Canova 11, Treviso
Cappadocia. The landscape in the depths of the rock is the title of the exhibition dedicated to the place awarded this year's International Carlo Scarpa Prize for Gardens, Güllüdere and Kızılçukur: the Rose Valley and the Red Valley in Cappadocia, curated by Patrizia Boschiero and Luigi Latini, organized by Fondazione Benetton Studi Ricerche in Ca' Scarpa, the former Church of Santa Maria Nova, now containing Treviso's new cultural space designed by Tobia Scarpa on behalf of Luciano Benetton.
The focus of the exhibition and of the various activities involved in the prize is a place in Asia Minor that emerged out of the complex history and geography of Cappadocia: two adjoining valleys carved out of the volcanic rock, the memory of an ancient culture of living.
The exhibition comprises four sections, each occupying a floor of the exhibition space, which will be inaugurated on this occasion.
On the ground floor is the first section, which is dedicated to the landscape of the valleys, especially in the sense of their pathways and the survival of traditional forms of agriculture co-existing with the volcanic soils in this region.
The second section, on the first floor, examined the geological character of the place in relation to the different forms of rupestrian settlement and architecture present.
The third section, on the second floor, focuses on the outstanding artistic heritage distinguishing the churches and other rock-cut buildings, as well as on the work of the Tuscia University of Viterbo, which has, for many decades, been engaged in research, conservation and promotion activities in this area.
The first three sections draw upon photographic materials while the fourth section provides visitors with a documentary-style narrative involving the screening of the film created in the context of the Prize, which will alternate, on specific days and at specific times, with screenings of Pier Paolo Pasolini's Medea (1969), much of which set in these very Cappadocian sites.
Exhibition organized by Fondazione Benetton curated by Patrizia Boschiero and Luigi Latini.
Scientific collaboration of Maria Andaloro and Paola Pogliani (University of Tuscia).
Photographs by Marco Zanin/Fabrica and the photographers of the Mission of the University of Tuscia in Cappadocia.
Exhibition project by Tobia Scarpa. Graphic design by Marcello Piccinini.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO ANY PERSON LOCATED OR RESIDENT IN ANY JURISDICTION WHERE IT IS UNLAWFUL TO DISTRIBUTE THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.
Amsterdam, The Netherlands — April 23, 2014 - Interxion Holding N.V. ("Interxion", "we, "us", or the "Company") (NYSE:INXN) today announced that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, €125 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the "Notes").

Behind the scenes: Sustainability at Bristol Zoo
Copper Account Manager, Joss Honeywood, gets an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes at top tourist attraction, Bristol Zoo, to find out how they are using imagination and know-how to be more sustainable…
Last month, a select group of Go Green members were treated to a behind-the-scenes look at Bristol Zoo, getting a glimpse into how a major visitor attraction juggles the need to be more sustainable with day to day demands.
We started our tour at the seal and penguin coast, where 145,000 gallons of salt water are used to recreate the habitat of the animals living in and around the pools. Toby, who had recently learnt to dive to personally handle the cleaning of the tanks, explained the water management process. We were shown the specialist equipment used to filter out the sludge – such as feathers and animal waste – which makes use of recycled broken glass to catch particles of dirt. Toby added they had previously used sand, but had changed to recycled glass to make the process more sustainable. The filtered water makes its way back into the pool via UV lights to kill off bacteria, with rain water and fresh water added to make up the volume as required.
Moving from the noisy pump room towards our next stop, we passed a large trailer filled with animal waste and used straw bedding which will make its way to the gardens at Wild Place, Bristol Zoo's new attraction, to become compost. Not even waste goes to waste here, it seems!
At the butterfly house, our tour guide Joe explained the benefits of using biomass boilers to heat the butterflies' habitat as opposed to gas or oil burners. We learnt that despite burning 54 tonnes of wood pellets every year to keep the habitat at temperature – it needs to be at least 26 degrees Celcius inside – these boilers are carbon neutral as they only release the same level of carbon dioxide as the trees took in whilst growing. Joe explained they were always reviewing how they could make every area more sustainable, and hope soon to boost the green credentials of the butterfly house by adding much needed insulation to the polytunnel.
Moving to our third and final tour location, we passed a listed building which had recently been converted into the gorilla house thanks to a £1.4 million refurbishment. Tim Wilson, the Director of Estates, had now joined us and explained the difficulty of retro-fitting sustainable features to the older buildings – the Zoo has three Grade 2 listed buildings on site – but added that it was beneficial in the long run for both budget and the environment.
The more modern Education Centre has recently been extended and the builders have kept sustainability at the forefront of their minds during the renovations; the thermally insulated building uses ventilation shafts under the floor to heat and cool the building using the outside air temperature; carpets are made from recycled fishing nets; the use of LED, motion-sensor lights and taps has reduced wasted energy, and solar panels have been fitted to the roof of the education centre and on the maintenance building, considerably reducing electricity costs. Our guide Dave seemed disappointed to admit they were still reliant on the Grid for the majority of their electricity needs, due to the Zoo's power-hungry animals!
Bristol Zoo educates 42,000 pupils per year, with lessons varying from art and geography to marketing and science, and includes important conservation messages in every topic. They are also spreading the 'go green' message via their staff and visitors, encouraging them to use public transport to travel sustainably to the Zoo; to recycle wherever possible; and to consider their water consumption, to name but a few initiatives.
During my short visit, the message was loud and clear. The Zoo is looking to the future, constantly reviewing what it can do in light of new technologies and advancing knowledge. Every team member we spoke to was really passionate about the Zoo's sustainable features and was keen to take any opportunity to improve on what they had. It also became clear that if somewhere like Bristol Zoo can welcome innovations to deliver a sustainable business model, there is little excuse for anyone else. Their staff showed that even as individuals, we can make a conscious decision to help be more sustainable by taking small steps such as travelling to work in the most environmentally-friendly way available to us.

This post is dedicated to idiotic post-genius-invention inventions.
Sound confusing? Not nearly as much as these items. But, let me explain.
You know how awesome Post It Notes are, right? Well I'm talking about the kind of items that came after the genius items. So, it would be something like an idiot creating a tiny piece of blackboard the size of a post it note, with double sided sticky tape on the back, so you could attach it to a small patch of wall where you won't miss it, and use the tiny piece of chalk attached by string to write yourself important reminders and notes.
Then you simply wipe off the note with the tiny duster, also attached by a piece of string. When you leave the room, you can simply pull it off the wall and take it with you to attach at your next destination.
Stupidly stupid, right? Because I took the genius creation in the Post It Note, and tried to make it better. Only I failed spectacularly.
Here's some more examples of idiotic post-genius-invention inventions.
I'm not totally digging the classy vibe of this one. Call me crazy, but I prefer to use an actual door if I want to obtain privacy from a doorway.
Also, with the green and white stripes running down it, this item makes me think I'm walking into my local corner store, circa 1980.
In all fairness to the product, it states that "it's an affordable way to stay comfortably cool" – so, you know, it may have a use. Except, again, I'm sorry to poo-poo on their parade, but I like to use a regular, standard type flyscreen door to let the breeze in through my house.
Same as the previous item, only extra tacky because it has a gross pattern on it that belongs on 1970's jacquard furniture coverings. Fail.
Their online pic cut off half the image. This grainy shot is from the magazine, so you can truly capture the essence of floaty flyscreen. Romantic, right?
Nothing says stylishly making an entrance (or exit) like fighting your way through a giant piece of flyscreen netting minus the door frame that normally sees it sitting tight and taught and easy to push open and closed.
Also, having the opening in the middle means there will inevitably be a gap where the flies – far superior in intellect to the creator of this item – will all form a straight line and line dance their way in to your home.
Guess what? They also make these for windows.
Really not sure how someone could look at a regular fly screen door or window, and decide that this was way cooler. That anyone would ever buy these. Have you ever seen how crusty and dusty your fly screen's can get? Imagine face-planting that when you try and claw your way through. Ewww.
They were so confident of the popularity of this item that they featured it twice. Either that or they thought that if they'd missed any stupid people at Page 3, they'd have a second chance to get them at Page 67.
Firstly, immature snorts abound from my mouth as I found this item on page 69.
This product is touted as being your means to "avoid the hassle and expense of having curtains or blinds installed with this great alternative". Wowness. They are so thoughtful. If you were the type of person to buy this product, I would recommend you use the money you save on curtains and blinds to pay for therapy and medication. Clearly, you need it.
Curtains and blinds have remained successful across the globe since their inception for a reason.
I'm a tad disappointed it is holographic material. From the image it looked like bubble wrap style pockets of air. I would've considered buying it to adhere to the kids whenever they wage war on each other and leap off the furniture if it had been filled with cushioning bubbles of air. Kind of like DIY air-bags for your kids. Oh well…back to the drawing board for this inventor.
Ooh, I'm going to have to disagree today - because I have actually bought the floaty drapey flyscreen!
I can totally see why a proper, solid flyscreen is infinitely superior, but in a house which is going to be demolished anyway, I'm not going to spend lotsa money in order to sit at home for 5 hours and wait for a tradesman who may or may not actually arrive. So cheap-arse temporary job it was.
I think we had it up for one summer, got frustrated by the number of times the dog got tangled up in it, and then took it down. The best anti-fly device will always be the fly gun from Australian Geographic - hours of fun!
I would've totally stolen you a proper flyscreen door from some abandoned house in a dodgy suburb. Because even those suburbs have real flyscreen doors.
I LOVE the fly gun! Got the family one each a couple of Christmases ago. Genius. Well,, it would've been, had we not spent the entire holiday trying to shoot each other instead of the flies.

Q: how to convert this into a typescript How to make this jsx in typescript. In javascript, it looks like this. But in typescript, I don't know how to achieve this exact code!
const Users = ({details,deleteUser}) => {
    return (
        <>

            {details.map(detail => (

                    {detail.del}
                    {detail.name}
                    {detail.email}
                    {detail.pass}
                    {detail.contact}
                     deleteUser(detail.del)}>
                        Delete

            ))}

        </>
    )}

A: As first you should define your props type:
type User = {
  del: string;
  name: string;
  email: string;
  pass: string;
  contact: string;
};
type UsersProps = {
  details: User[];
  deleteUser: (del: string) => void;
};

After this you should apply the type to the component props:
const Users = (props: UsersProps) => {
    const {details,deleteUser} = props;
    return (
        <>

            {details.map(detail => (

                    {detail.del}
                    {detail.name}
                    {detail.email}
                    {detail.pass}
                    {detail.contact}
                     deleteUser(detail.del)}>
                        Delete

            ))}

        </>
    )
};

In this way typescript will show you any typo, for example if you write detail.mail instead of detail.email ts will highlight it for you.

A: At first, you need the interface of the User in typescript.
export default interface IUser {
   id: number,
   name: string,
   image: string,
   ...others
}

Then you need to define the passed parameters it should look like the User interface. So the code will be.
{details<IUser[]>.map(detail => (

                    {detail.del}
                    {detail.name}
                    {detail.email}
                    {detail.pass}
                    {detail.contact}

            ))}

Q: Is it possible to substitute "then" with brackets? I first learned how to code in a C language, and using
if ( code )
then
code
fi

makes it really hard for me to read my code (don't ask why).
Is there a substitute for then?
Something like this:
if ( code ) {
 code
}
fi

A: Maybe this is easier on the eyes:
[ condition ] && {
   # statement 1
   # statment 2
   # ...
}

Other than that, just get used to it. Use the language's idioms.

A: The following is near to there. And weird.
: if; { code; } && {
    code
}

I personally never liked the...
if true; then
more;fi

...form myself. I like it when the control words lead. It always seemed strange to me that the prevailing ...;then form came about at all.
if    this && that
then  do these things too
else  i will probably get upset
fi

It's almost entirely opposite to your request, but it's another way to do it. You can also tack any wanted redirects onto the fi line as needed and they will apply to the whole block.

A: There's no substitute, but you can use both if you really need the braces:
if true ; then {
    something
} fi

That uses an unnecessary explicitly-braced command group as the body of the then block. Any commands in the braces will just be executed in the current shell when the then runs, exactly as though the braces weren't there.
I wouldn't really recommend this style in general or for code that someone else will need to read, but it does give you the braces you want, and it'll do the trick if you're using an editor that requires braced blocks or something like that.

A: You seem to be looking for the C shell (csh, tcsh, etc...). Be aware that experts recommend against it for programming.
I'm not sure whether or not the part that you consider to be unappealing is the fact that then is on the following line? If so, consider using the following style:
if condition; then
    stuff
fi

I have to admit that spelling statement names backwards like fi for if and esac for case (but not elihw for while!) is kind of quirky. But that's standard Bourne shell, the most portable shell syntax you can use.

A: Here is a way:
[ "$var" = "find" ] && echo "found"

is equivalent to:
if [ "$var" = "find" ]; then
  echo "found"
fi

A: I always use:
if (code); then
   code;
fi

Probably not exactly what you want but it's a bit more c like.


Dialog Wins E-Commerce Contract from U.K. Department of Trade - InternetNews.
The Dialog Corp. in London announced it's been awarded a contract to build an online export sales lead service for the U.K.'s Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).
Details of the contract were announced by Barbara Roche, the U.K.'s Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Small Firms, Trade and Industry, at the "Helping Smaller Companies to Export" event in London.
Dialog will act as the primary contractor for the service for the next five years. Financial details were not disclosed.
The site will offer a new service for foreign importers, the U.K.'s Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) posts, and U.K. exporters offering several information services online, including a national exporters database, comprised initially of 60,000 U.K. exporters from ICL's TradeUK database.
Dialog will work with ICL, the operator of the DTI-supported TradeUK Internet site. The new service will incorporate an online lead matching service for business opportunities.
The site will also include a database of archived export sales leads for U.K. companies to search for opportunities abroad. In addition, Dialog will supply subscribers with additional data relevant to export activity, such as company news and country information, for which it will receive usage revenues.
Additionally, ICL will develop the TradeUK site as an online center for e-commerce, promoting U.K. goods and services abroad.
ICL is a European IT systems and services company.


Video games are as life like as ever, but there are still quite a few people who enjoy old school video games. This might not make sense to some people, but there are a few reasons why these games still matter.
For starters, an older game is going to be much easier to pick up and play. They are usually not too complicated, and even those who do not play regularly can figure things out.
Another reason comes down to the cost. Most older gaming systems can be purchased for a very cheap price. This means some pretty affordable entertainment for years to come.
Finally, a lot of older games are just a lot more enjoyable with a group of people. The newer games tend to focus on online play. Some people still enjoy playing with a group of people in person instead.

4th Treg Directed Therapies Summit 2022
Keytruda wins another first with approval based on biomarkers
Richard Staines
Merck & Co has notched up another first with Keytruda, the FDA approving the drug for use against solid tumours anywhere in the body which express a certain genetic features.
This is the first time any drug has been approved on its genetic profile, rather than its site of origin. Keytruda is now approved for unresectable or metastatic solid tumours which have a microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) biomarker.
The new use covers patients with solid tumours that have progressed following prior treatment and who have no satisfactory alternative treatment options, and patients with colorectal cancer that has progressed following treatment with certain chemotherapy drugs.
The FDA's oncology chief Richard Pazdur
Richard Pazdur, acting director of the Office of Hematology and Oncology Products in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said the approval is "an important first for the cancer community".
He said: "Until now, the FDA has approved cancer treatments based on where in the body the cancer started—for example, lung or breast cancers. We have now approved a drug based on a tumour's biomarker without regard to the tumour's original location."
Already approved in a host of other cancer indications, including the lucrative first-line lung cancer use, Keytruda works by targeting the cellular pathway known as PD-1/PD-L1.
The FDA approved Keytruda in the new use with its Accelerated Approval pathway, based on immature data from a small trial involving 149 patients – meaning Merck will have to provide confirmatory study information to maintain its licence in the long term.
Bristol-Myers Squibb has also filed its rival PD-1 inhibitor Opdivo (nivolumab) in this indication in April, but the FDA is not due to make a decision on this until early August, giving Merck & Co a head start.
Opdivo outsold Keytruda last year, bringing in nearly $3.8 billion in revenues, compared with the latter's $1.4 billion full year revenues.
But Merck's drug is expected to catch up as it has been approved as a first-line lung cancer monotherapy, and also in combination with chemotherapy. By contrast, Opdivo failed in a phase 3 trial in this multi-billion dollar indication.

Welder Apprentice Scheme in Brunei a Great Success
Back to 2010 Customised Replica Training Gives Insights into Material Microstructures Innovative Bed Manufacturing and New Product Development New Thermographic Inspection Training at TWI TWI Member Companies have Free Access to MI-21 Consumables Database TWI Receives Health and Safety Certificate from Lloyd's Register CEO Welder Apprentice Scheme in Brunei a Great Success
Connect, no. 164, January/February 2010, p.7
Negara Brunei Darussalam is a developing nation located in one of the highest growth regions of the world but it relies significantly on imported manpower and skills.
Back in 2006, Joffren Omar Company Sendirian Berhad (JO) and Syarikat Kejuruteraan Sistematik Sendirian Berhad (SKS) embarked on a plan to train and develop local talent in the welding profession. A purpose-built facility was built in Seria with technical advice and guidance from TWI which has been associated with JO/SKS since 2000.
The facility was constructed to provide training facilities not only for welders but also for welding inspectors, painting inspectors and NDT professionals. The new facilities opened in December 2008 and a Senior Supervisor and a Master Welding Instructor were hired with TWI's help.
On 8 December 2009, JO/SKS headed by Gary Young, presented the first nine home-grown apprentices with a certificate of completion of the Welder Apprentice Scheme.
When these young Bruneians signed on the scheme, they had basic or little knowledge of the standards and competence required to be oil and gas welders.
Yet in a matter of months, through their own dedicated effort and supported by their instructors and supervisors, they have qualified at the highest international standards acceptable to Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP) and Brunei Liquefied Natural Gas (BLNG), that is, CSWIP Level 3 oil and gas, 6G and 6GR positions.
Through this initiative, JO/SKS continue to demonstrate their investment in Brunei's human resources development.
Indeed, it is a strong indicator of the companies' commitment to BSP's Local Business Development policy. With the cooperation and support of international organisations such as TWI, and local agencies such as Immigration, Labour, Ministry of Education and others, it is hoped that Brunei will have enough skilled workers to cover its needs in the future.

Disciplines Literary Studies & Poetry Poetry Modern & Contemporary Poetry
Calligrammes Poems of Peace and War (1913-1916), A Bilingual Edition
by Guillaume Apollinaire (Author), Anne Hyde Greet (Translator), S. I. Lockerbie (Introduction)
About the Book About the Author Reviews Table of Contents Related Books
This fully annotated bilingual edition of Calligrammes makes available a key work not only in Apollinaire's own development but also in the evolution of modern French poetry. Apollinaire—Roman by birth, Polish by name (Wilhelm-Apollinaris de Kostrowitski), Parisian by choice—died at thirty-eight in 1918. Nevertheless, he became one of the leading figures in twentieth-century poetry, a transitional figure whose work at once echoes the Symbolists and anticipates the work of the Surrealists.
Anne Hyde Greet is Professor Emeritus of French, University of California, Santa Barbara, and translator of Apollinaire's Alcools (California, 1966). S. I. Lockerbie is Emeritus Professor of French, University of Stirling, Scotland.
"Greet's English is an excellent guide to Apollinaire's French. A modern classic long overdue in this form." —Los Angeles Times
"What we have in these poems, instead of politics, is a subjective and affective chronicle in which the wilder imaginative flights are constantly pinned down by immediate detail. A consistent governing sensibility expands then retracts with impressive suppleness - it's rather like a genie returning to its bottle." —The Guardian
"This impressive edition presenting the original French texts facing the English translations deserves high praise on numerous counts. The successful duplication in English of the complex typography of these word-drawings is in itself a feat. . . . The enduring value of this edition will derive from its completeness and the tools it offers the competent but inexpert reader of French for fuller understanding of Apollinaire's rich, but often abstruse vocabulary and imagery." —CHOICE
"The reader new to Apollinaire will be led into the fascinating labyrinth, the specialist will find it both stimulating and invaluable as a work of reference. . . . This is an authoritative and complete edition and will remain so for a long time to come." —Modern Language Review
"Any study, any appreciation, not only of French poetry early in [the 20th] century but of French painting—Picasso, the Cubists, Delaunay—and of Apollinaire's personal vision can begin with this excellent book." —The Antioch Review
