Report: Apple to equip iPhone with satellite connectivity for emergency messages - SiliconANGLE News

jaringankabar.blogspot.com

Apple Inc. is developing satellite communications technology for the iPhone that will enable users to contact emergency services even when they’re not within range of a Wi-F network or cell tower.

That’s according to a report from Bloomberg published today. The publication’s sources indicated that certain hardware components necessary for satellite communications will be included in the new iPhones set to debut next month. However, it’s believed that the reported features for contacting emergency services will only arrive later, most likely next year. 

The report indicates that Apple’s satellite connectivity plans are more limited than previously believed. Respected Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who has predicted the features of many of the company’s products before their launch, wrote in an investor memo over the weekend that this year’s iPhones will provide the ability to make calls and send texts via satellite. However, the new Bloomberg report from today suggests that Apple will initially focus on rolling out a narrower, more specialized set of satellite features to start. 

The first feature in the works is said to be codenamed Stewie internally. It’s expected to debut on the iPhone under the official name Emergency Message via Satellite. 

The capability will enable users to send a text to emergency services from an iPhone even if the device can’t connect to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Emergency Message via Satellite will reportedly also provide the option to send texts to emergency contacts. The capability will allow users to message an emergency contact by typing “Emergency SOS” into the recipient line.

For recipients, texts they receive through Emergency Message via Satellite will appear in a grey bubble instead of the blue and green bubbles that the iPhone uses to display SMS and iMessage messages, respectively. Moreover, Bloomberg’s sources suggested that emergency texts will produce a notification even if the recipient’s iPhone has Do Not Disturb mode enabled.

The other satellite-powered feature Apple is said to be planning is aimed at enabling users to report emergencies to authorities. The feature will allow users to submit reports with information such as their current location and whether the emergency they’re reporting involves a car, a boat or a plane. 

The satellite features are expected to have certain technical limitations on launch. It’s believed that iPhones may take as much as a minute to connect to a satellite and, before a connection is established, users may have to walk to a new location that has better coverage. Additionally, the Emergency Message via Satellite feature is expected to place a character limit on texts.

It’s unclear exactly which satellite communications provider will work with Apple to power the new features. However, there are hints: Today’s report stated that two satellite operators, Iridium Communications Inc. and Omnispace LLC, aren’t working with Apple on the project. That narrows down the list of potential providers to a smaller number of companies.

One provider that wasn’t ruled out by the report is Globalstar Inc., which appears to be a particularly likely candidate. That’s because the company was named in earlier reports about the iPhone maker’s satellite connectivity plans.

Another open question is exactly how future iPhones will connect to orbital satellite networks. Satellite connectivity requires a specialized modem chip of a kind that current iPhones don’t include. Given that Apple sources modem chips for its handsets from Qualcomm Inc., it’s possible the iPhone maker is collaborating with Qualcomm to develop a satellite-compatible modem.

If the companies have indeed teamed up on the project, satellite-powered emergency features could eventually roll out to Android devices as well. Qualcomm supplies modem chips not only for Apple’s iPhones but also a sizable portion of the Android smartphones on the market. In the event the company is developing a satellite-compatible modem chip for Apple, it could decide to repackage the technology for other handset makers down the line.

OSU hosting free antiracism teaching conference to equip educators with practical techniques - Oregon State University

jaringankabar.blogspot.com

CORVALLIS, Ore. — Oregon State University is hosting a free, online conference this fall for secondary and college-level educators to learn about advancing antiracist teaching practices and to connect with a broader community working to implement those practices.

The Conference for Antiracist Teaching, Language and Assessment is open to the public and will be hosted by OSU’s School of Writing, Literature and Film in collaboration with the newly established Asao and Kelly Inoue Antiracist Teaching Endowment within the College of Liberal Arts.

The goal of the event is to move antiracist teaching principles into real-life, everyday practice, said Tim Jensen, director of the School of Writing, Literature and Film and one of the conference organizers.

“It’s not enough to declare, ‘Antiracist education is important.’ Our actions need to show how and why it’s vital,” Jensen said. “I think there are lots of teachers who are eager to engage with antiracist pedagogy, but who are uncertain about what it looks like in practice. This conference can help by providing suggestions and support for implementing antiracist elements into the education system, from diversifying voices represented in one’s curriculum to rethinking grading and grammar systems inflected with racial injustice.”

Spread across three Zoom-based sessions, from 11 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. on Sept. 17, Sept. 24 and Oct. 1, the conference is aimed at high school and college teachers and anyone interested in advancing antiracism.

Five prominent scholars will present keynote lectures followed by question-and-answer periods.

• On Sept. 17, OSU assistant professor Ana Milena Ribero will lead off with a session on how to implement the principles of critical race theory in teaching students. Vershawn Ashanti Young, an English professor at the University of Waterloo in Canada, will follow with a discussion of why critical race theory is currently controversial and share examples of successful teaching of the theory.
• On Sept. 24, Victor Villanueva, Regents Professor at Washington State University, will present on how to center work by Black, Indigenous and other people of color, which means moving away from the white perspective being the sole lens through which lessons are taught. Alexandria Lockett, an assistant professor of English at Spelman College in Atlanta, will then discuss the racial politics of knowledge production and the importance of teaching critical information literacy. The discussion will be moderated by Akua Duku Anokye, associate professor of Africana language, literature and culture at Arizona State University.
• On Oct. 1, Asao Inoue, a professor of rhetoric and composition at Arizona State University, will discuss how current educational practices uphold white language supremacy and how to investigate those practices with students. The conference will close with a roundtable discussion with all five speakers, moderated by Jesse Stommel, executive director of the journal Hybrid Pedagogy and co-founder of the professional development space Digital Pedagogy Lab.

“I hope teachers who attend the conference can find ways to inquire into their own teaching and assessing practices, to de-center whitely habits of language and judgement, and to teach and learn in antiracist ways,” said Inoue, who earned his master’s degree at OSU and chose the university to be the home of the Antiracist Teaching Endowment.

“We cannot dismantle white language supremacy alone. We need each other in our mutual antiracist work, in our classrooms and elsewhere; and our world needs it, even as so many other problems are around us.”

In the days between keynote sessions, conference participants will be encouraged to utilize antiracist teaching techniques in their classrooms and to share their experience with others via online forums established by conference organizers.

“For many white educators contending with systemic racism, there can be a strong sense of unease and defensiveness, which can tempt one into not acting. But we must act,” Jensen said. “With this conference, we want to give teachers of all backgrounds a forum in which their efforts to grow and learn are validated and encouraged.”

The event is open to educators nationwide, along with anyone who hopes to learn more about antiracism teaching and philosophy.

Jane Street latest institution to join DeFi Pyth Network - The TRADE News

Quantitative trading firm Jane Street has become the latest financial institution to join the growing decentralised finance (DeFi) data network Pyth Network.

The market maker will initially contribute real-time crypto market data to the network with plans to later expand into equities and other products later in the year.  

Jane Street joins a growing list of institutions who have joined the network recently including GTS, LMAX, Virtu Financial,  Genesis Global Trading,  IEX Cloud, CMS, CoinShares, Cumberland DRW, XR Trading and Hudson River Trading.

Most recently, Susquehanna’s SIG DT Investments joined the Pyth Network to provide Bitcoin market data. The firm plans to expand the market data it contributes to the network with other cryptocurrencies. 

The Pyth Network is aimed at “rewiring” current financial infrastructure by creating a more democratised approach to data in the market. It is built on a Solana blockchain and is capable of handling 50,000 transactions per second. 

The network aims to alleviate participants’ reliance on intermediaries by offering market data at a lower cost to enable them to trade through smart contracts outside of current infrastructure.

“Jane Street has been an active participant in the crypto markets, and we are continuously exploring ways to advance the ecosystem. We see the promise of the Pyth Network, with its innovative use of the blockchain to increase transparency, efficiency, and security in financial data,” said Ian McGuinn, head of crypto business development at Jane Street.

Six Flags partnership will equip security staff with body cameras - MarketWatch

José Villafañe acquires first radio station for creation of regional network - Media Moves

José Villafañe (no relation) has big plans to create a new Spanish-language format regional radio network.

His first acquisition is WCCM LatinX 103.7 FM in Boston through an LMA to purchase agreement with Costa Eagle Media.

Villafañe, a former Entravision executive and currently CEO and Chief Revenue Officer of MNA Sales, acquired the station through Costa Media Boston LLC, a company he co-founded in July with executive media sales veteran Bill Blake, who is now General Manager of LatinX Boston.

Gerardo López, CEO of the Chiquibaby Radio Show and Podcast and La Pantera Radio Network, will serve as VP of Programming.

“We strategically selected Boston as the first market to launch our broadcast division because of the lack of radio stations catering the Hispanic community that offer premium content for the local market,” says Villafañe. “Although this is a Top 10 market, most of Boston’s Spanish-language radio stations broadcast nationally syndicated programs or broker Spanish-language radio. We want to change that by super-serving the local community through premium local programming.”

Villafañe says the short-term goal is to have five stations in Boston, Philadelphia, Hartford, and Washington, DC. to beef up a “Northeast Network outside of New York where 2M+ Latinos currently live.”

When asked about why he’s launching a new radio network and if he thinks radio is still a good business proposition, he expresses no doubt:

“Except for live sports and red carpet Events, television has decreased in viewership due to OTT platforms. Despite Streaming Services such as Pandora and Spotify, radio is stronger than ever with Listenership at an all time high. In addition, radio with its media extensions such as streaming, social media and podcasting provide clients with a complete media plan to gain customers and increase sales. More and more dollars are shifting to audio and that is where we want to be.”

Villafañe was President of Entravision Communications, where he created and launched the Entravision Radio Network. He previously worked with Radio Unica and Univision Communications overseeing National Sales for Radio, Television, Digital Media and Business Development. He started his career at Katz Media Group.

Network Saratoga launches new website for engaged couples - The Saratogian

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. — Network Saratoga LLC recently announced the launch of their new website, Network Wedding Guide, at https://ift.tt/38sIpKO. The new website is a member-based virtual showcase of venues and wedding professionals in the Saratoga, Adirondack, and Capital Region areas with exclusive offers just for members.

Network Saratoga LLC owner Fran Dingeman has been creating and coordinating wedding shows in the Saratoga region for over 20 years.

“When the pandemic hit, one of the many industries that was drastically impacted was the wedding and event industry,” Dingeman said. “As a company that produced nine events in Saratoga in 2019, having to reduce to two in 2020 was a significant decrease. Like many other businesses, we focused more on virtual and digital endeavors. We created NetworkWeddingGuide.com to help as many local businesses as possible. A select group of local wedding professionals are featured with business descriptions, photos, and an exclusive offer that is only available through the Network Wedding Guide website.”

Dingeman compares the concept of her website to that of a wedding show.

“Engaged couples are invited to enter the site for a nominal fee. Once on the site, they will be entitled to savings offered by each vendor when they purchase their services through the designated site portal. At an in-person wedding show, you pay to enter and have access to a variety of wedding professionals collected in one physical space. Network Wedding Guide accomplishes this with the added bonus of savings or added value offered by every vendor that’s booked through the site,” she said.

Network Saratoga LLC plans to host in-person wedding shows again in 2022, beginning with the Longfellows Wedding Show on Feb. 27, now in its 21st year.

Network Wedding Guide premiered with 34 wedding industry participants representing 18 vendor categories. Once engaged couples pay for access to the site, they can check back as often as they like. The site will be piloted through Dec. 31, and supported by focused social media through the end of the year.

For more information, email info@networkweddingguide.com or call (518) 365-3459.

The Women's Network launches chapter at Baylor - The Baylor Lariat

By Mariah Bennett | Staff Writer

The Women’s Network, a national women’s networking organization nearing 150 chapters, has launched a chapter at Baylor. The new chapter’s Instagram, with almost 600 followers, describes the organization as “dedicated to redefining ambition” in its biography.

The Women’s Network was established in the fall of 2017 at Syracuse University by founder and president Jamie Vinick. According to Vinick, the new Baylor chapter started after the organization heard excitement from students about the potential creation of a TWN chapter on Baylor’s campus. This excitement, along with multiple factors, contributed to the network’s recent introduction to Baylor.

“We identified a need on campus and are really proud of the work that we’re doing,” Vinick said.

This work includes an Instagram page, @womensnetwork_baylor, which was formerly managed by Maggie Shien, a Carnegie Mellon University student and marketing intern at The Women’s Network. Over the summer, Shien designed Instagram posts and stories and worked with other interns to celebrate the new TWN chapter at Baylor.

“Overall, I just tried my best to reflect both the professional and the social aspects of The Women’s Network,” Shien said.

Shien spoke about her efforts to balance the page with content that reflected TWN’s brand and the female students of Baylor. This includes posts on LinkedIn tips, apps for college students and informational posts about national network missions.

According to the organization’s LinkedIn, the Women’s Network’s ultimate mission is to “create a community of women that celebrates the desire to achieve, cultivating ambition to prepare the next generation of leaders.”

This ultimate mission corresponds with Vinick’s statements on the vision for Baylor’s chapter: to increase not only chapter growth but also growth as a national organization.

“The vision is to build a powerhouse in the community where resources, connections, tools and insight will hopefully be able to be found,” Vinick said. “This is an organization that transcends beyond college years.”

Grapevine sophomore Jessica Apodaca-Burks spoke of her excitement for the organization’s recent launch on campus in a virtual interview.

“I’m really excited about what they’re bringing to our campus and to the women of this school, especially as someone who is … planning on becoming a physician’s assistant in a pretty male-dominated speciality,” Apodaca-Burks said.

Apodaca-Burks said she really enjoys having a support system in which the group can share its experiences.

That support system — which is currently the “largest, most engaging collegiate women’s network nationwide,” according to the organization’s website — has large goals not only nationally but also within its new chapter at Baylor.

“It’s hopefully an organization that Baylor women will be part of throughout their lives and careers,” Vinick said.

Camp Zama programs equip newcomers to Japan with vital information - United States Army

CAMP ZAMA, Japan (Aug. 31, 2021) – Two programs that are part of the welcoming process for those newly arriving to Japan and Camp Zama help to quickly familiarize them with their new living and working environment.

“Head Start” is a weeklong class that serves as an introduction to Japanese food, culture and helpful-to-know phrases and customs. And the newcomers’ orientation provides incoming employees with a primer on many of the installation’s key organizations and services.

David Rood, an Education Services specialist at the Camp Zama Education Center, said his facility offers Head Start twice a month. During their in-processing, newcomers are scheduled to attend the program, and Rood recommends they attend within 30 days of their arrival to Japan.

The next scheduled Head Start class, which is already full, will be held Sept. 7 through 10. The class after that, which still has spaces available, will be held Sept. 20 through 24. Class sizes are currently limited to a maximum of 24 students due to COVID-19 restrictions, Rood said.

Head Start is a mandatory course required for all active-duty military members and Department of Defense employees assigned to Camp Zama, Rood said. The course provides students with some basic knowledge on the Japanese language, culture, customs and history, as well as an overview of the relationship between the United States and Japan, Rood added.

“Completion of this course will enhance your understanding of your host nation and its people,” Rood said.

The feedback his office receives from those who attend Head Start has always been “extremely positive and good-natured,” Rood said, emphasizing that students will “take out as much as they put in” to the course.

“U.S. personnel [in Japan] serve as ‘mini-ambassadors,’” Rood said. “It is important for them to represent the U.S. in a professional and positive manner.”

Lucinda Ward, the Relocation Readiness program manager at Camp Zama’s Army Community Service, said ACS hosts the newcomer’s orientation every first and third Thursday of the month. Like Head Start, the orientation is mandatory for all service members because it serves as “a foundational stepping stone for assisting new personnel with getting acclimated to their new place of duty,” Ward said.

New arrivals also schedule their orientation date during in-processing, attending only after completing the current Restriction of Movement requirements, or ROM—usually within four weeks of their arrival Ward said.

The orientation consists of briefings from 22 different agencies throughout the installation, who provide a variety of useful knowledge and information, Ward said. Additionally, a number of booths are set up that offer information on some of the programs and services, followed by a complimentary lunch and a tour of Camp Zama and the nearby Sagamihara Family Housing Area.

“I hope that the [orientation] attendees receive adequate information to help get them started in setting their roots here at Camp Zama for the next few years,” Ward said. “We receive a great deal of feedback saying that the orientation is one of the best… they have attended in their career.”

Those who have questions about Head Start can contact Rood by calling DSN: (315) 263-5055 or by e-mailing david.k.rood4.civ@mail.mil. Those who have questions about Head Start can contact Ward by calling DSN: (315) 263-8091 or by e-mailing lucinda.f.ward.civ@mail.mil.

TDS Gets OK to Build Fast Fiber Network in E.C. - Volume One

FASTEN YOUR SEATBELTS, IT'S ABOUT TO GET FAST. TDS Telecom plans to build a fiber-optic network to serve the Eau Claire area.

A Madison-based company will install 300 miles of fiber-optic cable in Eau Claire in the next two to three years to begin providing high-speed Internet, cable TV, and telephone service to residents and businesses. Once its network is fully built, TDS Telecom intends to offer service to all residents and businesses within the city limits of Eau Claire, as well as to eventually serve customers in Altoona and Chippewa Falls, a company official told the Eau Claire City Council on Aug. 17.

Ultimately, TDS aims to be able to serve 50,000 customers in the Chippewa Valley, said Josh Worrell, a business development manager for TDS. However, because of right-of-way issues and topography, it may be too costly to serve certain areas, he added.

Most of the infrastructure will be installed below ground, but some equipment will be above ground, including 13 large boxes, or nodes, that will likely be placed on public property, the company said.

Initial speeds on the TDS fiber-optic network will be about 300 Mbps (megabits per second), but could reach 1 or 2 gigabits per second in the future.

The City Council voted unanimously to approve a memorandum of understanding between TDS and the city outlining the terms of the installation, which will use public right-of-way. No city funds will be used for the privately owned network, which will serve paying customers. Under the agreement, costs incurred by the city for engineering work and to locate utility lines will be reimbursed by TDS.

Bob Nelson, the city’s information technology manager, said TDS’s system will be faster than existing Internet and cable networks in the city because it will bring high-speed fiber-optic lines directly to customers homes and businesses. While other providers may use fiber optics in their infrastructure, they typically run slower coaxial cables to customers’ homes or businesses, Nelson said.

Worrell, the TDS official, said that initial speeds on its network will be about 300 Mbps (megabits per second), but could reach 1 or 2 gigabits per second in the future. The TDS service will compete with incumbent providers, such as AT&T and Spectrum.

TDS is headquartered in Madison and provides more than 1.2 million connections in about 1,000 communities across 32 states. Find them online at tdstelecom.com.

IDEA Bank's entrepreneurship workshop helps equip students for future business success - Troy Today - Trojan News Center

jaringankabar.blogspot.com

For Troy University alumna Avalon Dudinsky Meacham, returning to Troy on Thursday for the IDEA Bank’s Entrepreneurship Pop-Up Workshop was exciting – not only for the valuable information she gained, but also for the opportunity to see the growth of the center that had its origins when she was a student at TROY.

Troy University partnered with Auburn University’s Government and Economics Development Institute to provide the opportunity for entrepreneurs to improve their odds of success. Dr. LaKami Baker, Russell Foundation Associate Professor of Entrepreneurial Studies at Auburn’s Harbert College of Business, led the workshop for about 20 participants, representing both students and small business owners from the community.

Meacham was a key inspiration for the IDEA Bank, when, as a marketing major, she successfully launched a business selling the all-purpose seasoning “Stan’s Stuff.” She utilized various University resources in the process, but at the time, finding and bringing together those resources was not easy.

TROY launched the IDEA Bank, which stands for Innovation, Design and Entrepreneurship Accelerator, to streamline the process for students, and the surrounding community, with the development and execution of business ventures.

“It is very exciting to see the IDEA Bank go from the idea and the concept to the execution,” Meacham said. “It is very exciting to see the space actually used for the greater community, as well as for Troy University students.”

For Meacham, Thursday’s workshop was filled with key concepts that she believes will benefit her business efforts moving forward.

“We are learning about how you can find your customers and start your entrepreneurship journey,” she said. “I like that she addressed that a business plan might not be the best place to start because it can be extremely overwhelming, as I can tell you from my experience of being a student. Her acknowledgement that we should start with questions like where are the customers, what are the products and how this is going to really play out in practice is a better place to start so that people don’t encounter these big roadblocks and end up failing.”

About 20 students and local business owners took part in the entrepreneurship workshop, learning helpful tips on how to be successful in launching and maintaining businesses.

Thursday’s event provided TROY student Austin Shufflebarger with his first experience with the resources and services available through the IDEA Bank, but he says it won’t be his last visit.

“I’ve really enjoyed this presentation and I’m very interested to look into other events the IDEA Bank holds. I’ve had a lot of ideas of things that I would like to do and I think entrepreneurship is something we learn a lot about in the program but we don’t learn how to start businesses,” he said. “So, I thought this would be a really interesting thing where I would get to learn a lot about how to start and entrepreneurial business, the steps that I needed to take and the things I needed to look for.”

For Shufflebarger, a big take-away from Thursday’s workshop was the importance of focusing on the customer base.

“The big thing that came to my mind that I hadn’t thought of was knowing your customers,” he said. “Everyone, when they start a business, has an idea of a product that they want to sell and they have an idea of who is going to buy that product but they don’t think in-depth about their market segment and their customers specifically. That is something that I’ve learned – to think much more in-depth about the customers.”

Thursday’s workshop also marked TROY student Juston Caldwell’s first experience with the IDEA Bank.

“This is my first experience here at the IDEA Bank, and I want to do more workshops here during my remaining time at TROY,” Caldwell said. “For me personally, I have a business that I will be taking the helm of in a few years, and some of the things I was looking to learn from it were being a better organizer, understanding my customer base a little better, and different techniques I could use to make myself a little more well-rounded. Additionally, I wanted to use this as an opportunity to be more outgoing because I am pretty introverted despite being someone who is in sales. I just wanted to network with like-minded people.”

Caldwell also pointed to the emphasis the workshop placed on knowing and understanding customers as an important take-away from the event.

“Even though I’ve been in sales for five years now, I’ve never taken the time to truly understand the customer. I’ve more so been fixated on what I’m trying to do as opposed to be focused on what my customer needs. Learning about knowing and understanding my customers has been an important thing I’ve learned about today.”

Lynne George, the IDEA Bank’s Director, said partnership with the Government and Economic Development Institute was a wonderful way to serve students and the community.

“The entrepreneurship workshop was a great opportunity for aspiring entrepreneurs and current small business owners to think about some key aspects of their business that may typically get put on the back burner,” George said. “We did a deep dive on understanding customers and creating value while mapping out business models. Entrepreneurs have a lot to juggle, but it’s important to take a step back and assess what’s working. This was a chance to do that with the help of an expert and with like-minded peers. It was the perfect way to execute the mission of the IDEA Bank, which involves providing both educational content and a place for collaboration.”

Genshin Impact: How to Equip Wings and Gliders - GameRant

jaringankabar.blogspot.com

In Genshin Impact, players can earn and purchase new wind gliders and outfits for their characters. But those who have unlocked a new set of wings might now be wondering exactly how they go about changing them.

The Dressing Room in Genshin Impact

To change clothing or wind gliders, players must access the Dressing Room. First, players need to head to Paimon's menu and click "Character." Select the character that will be getting the new wings, then select the coat hanger in the bottom right corner of the screen. If players have completed Dragon Storm, a quest in the Teyvat storyline Archon Quests, Prologue, Act I: The Outlander Who Caught the Wind, this will bring players into the Genshin Impact Dressing Room.

Now, players will be able to select from wind gliders or costumes. Those who purchased the Sea Breeze Dandelion, for example, will be able to change The Lion of South Jean's outfit and update the look of a character's wings. Each player can wear whatever wings a player chooses; selecting gliders for one character doesn't change the glider for all the others. The outfits and wings just change the look of the character and do not affect gameplay.

How to Get New Wind Gliders in Genshin Impact

There are currently eight different wind glider styles in Genshin Impact. Here's how to collect every single one.

• Wings of First Flight - These are the starting wings that everyone gets from Amber at the beginning of the game.
• Wings of Companionship - These wings are the official launch wings mailed to everyone when Genshin Impact was released.
• Wings of Descension - Only players on PS4 or PS5 can get or use these wings; they were mailed to everyone who played on the system. If players put these wings on while logged into a PlayStation then switch to PC or mobile, the wings will no longer be available until they return to the PlayStation. This isn't the only PS exclusive either; PC and mobile players won't get Aloy's bow, the Predator, which was one of the four new weapons revealed recently for Genshin's update 2.1.
• Wings of Golden Flight - Reach Reputation Level 8 in Liyue.
• Wings of Concealing Snow - Reach Frostbearing Tree Offering Level 12.
• Wings of the Stormstrider - Reach Reputation Level 10 in Inazuma.
• Wings of Feasting - These wings were exclusive to China, and players had to buy a specific meal from KFC to earn them.

Genshin Impact is available for mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5.

AT&T: Only 60% of network in Louisiana working normally following Ida - CNET

Hurricane Ida left 1 million Louisiana residents without power.

Patrick T. Fallon/Getty Images

AT&T said Monday that only 60% of its network in Louisiana is operating normally after Hurricane Ida battered the state on Sunday. The mobile carrier reported significant outages in New Orleans and Baton Rouge due to the mass power outages caused by the storm. AT&T said some of the key facilities have been restored, but others remain offline and are inaccessible due to flooding and damage.

"Our Network Disaster Recovery teams are working to gain access to these locations as soon as possible to restore services," AT&T said in a blog post. "We are also focused on getting our customers, their families and first responders connected."

AT&T reported that its wireless networks in Alabama are operating normally, and so far Mississippi has only seen a small impact on wireless operations. The mobile carrier said its response teams will work around the clock until service is restored. AT&T has dispatched mobile cell sites and mobile command centers like Cell on Wheels and Cell on Light Trucks, emergency communication vehicles, high water vehicles and more to affected areas. 

On Sunday, AT&T said it would waive overage chargers to provide unlimited talk, text and data for AT&T postpaid and prepaid customers across Louisiana and Mississippi through Sept. 4. You can find a full list of qualifying ZIP codes in AT&T's post. 

Along with AT&T, other mobile carriers are responding to the disaster. T-Mobile will offer free talk, text and unlimited data for regular users, business customers and prepaid users not already on unlimited plans from Aug. 29 to Sept. 3. Verizon is also offering unlimited calling, text and data to customers most impacted by Ida.

Digital attacks fuel the need for network security experts - FIU News

Cyberattacks are surging in all categories of the digital sphere and are likely to become more frequent and damaging, says Alexander Perez-Pons, associate professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

With high profile attacks on network management company SolarWinds; the Colonial Pipeline; meat processing company JBS; and software firm Kaseya the urgency for professionals who can counteract, contain and even prevent network breaches has moved to the forefront, highlighting the great need for graduates with an M.S. in Computer Engineering, which focuses on network security and takes just 10 months to complete.

Security needs

“If you look at the horizon, there will be what looks like an explosion in IoT devices—more devices everywhere recording, monitoring, gathering information,” says Perez-Pons. “These devices make our lives easier, but how can security now not be a major factor?”

When looking at the past 30-plus years of devices and programming, Perez-Pons points out that decades ago, the main push was the functionality and capability of a product. Security for devices was not a main component.

“Consumers assume that companies are doing their due diligence to protect their data with security measures,” cautions Perez-Pons, who admits he does whatever possible to keep his exposure limited.

One common security measure that is taken to limit data exposure is using two-factor identification. Information is a commodity that can be traded even when there are security measures in place—there are privacy concerns today that question how much control you have over your data, he explains. There’s always a possibility that somebody may try to gain access to your devices and this is why two-factor identification is a good thing because it protects the network.

“Minimizing your digital ‘surface’ or exposure is a good way of thinking,” says Perez-Pons, and it starts with cybersecurity that considers network security. “So, if the networks are safe, good communication can take place and anything that is suspicious or could have malicious intent can be identified and stopped before it goes further.”

National need

This was the case in the Kaseya breach. Kaseya is an IT and security management solutions provider for managed services providers and small to medium-sized businesses. The company responded quickly to a ransomware attack on its network infrastructure that was launched over the Fourth of July holiday weekend. The company found the network breach and was able to limit the effects to about 50 of its 35,000 customers, provide a decryption key and avoided paying a ransom.

“Cyberattacks are on the rise, and it’s no longer a question of if, but when. Network security is here to stay as companies need to be diligent about their security posture,” says Fred Voccola, CEO of Kaseya. “There is an untapped gold mine of professional opportunities in this area, which comes with job security for the long-term.”

The urgency to help stop the breaches has the current federal administration moving to boost critical infrastructure. Collaborative work is being initiated across agencies to ensure new methods are used to prevent attacks. This is an evolving industry, however, insists Perez-Pons. One where professionals in the field need to be many steps ahead of criminals and be prepared with the latest methods and knowledge because it’s a shifting surface. It’s not static—he stresses that what we secure today may not be secure tomorrow—it’s ongoing.

Because of the shifting nature of the field, many professionals are seeking education and training in the latest techniques with higher education and certifications, such as with the master’s degree in computer engineering, notes Perez-Pons.

M.S. in Computer Engineering: Network Security

The fully online M.S. in Computer Engineering, which focuses on network security, offers students exposure on how to configure firewalls and how to be able to secure whole networks for organizations, Perez-Pons says. In addition, the program provides preparation for valuable certifications including Network+, Security+, and Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH).

“It covers what's involved with when you communicate and how you need encryption, to make sure that if somebody is sniffing or doing a man-in-the-middle attack, they're not going to see that information has been transmitted in plain English,” says Perez-Pons, who describes the forensic techniques that are used, including reverse engineering needs to limit or neutralize ransomware or malware attacks. 

Many of Perez-Pons’ students are professionals already working in the field, looking for an “uptick” in their careers to specialize and move into a higher earning bracket. The fact that the degree is offered online offers a great advantage to those who work, he notes. 

The National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have designated FIU as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education. The designation, pioneered by Perez-Pons, helps FIU meet the growing demand for professionals with network and cybersecurity expertise in various disciplines.

“We have to be 100 percent right all the time. If we just have one small weak link, and an attacker finds that, they only have to be right once,” says Perez-Pons. “As you can see, the demand is huge.”

WATCH: How well did new team president Brad Stevens equip the 2021-22 Boston Celtics? - Celtics Wire

jaringankabar.blogspot.com

By Justin Quinn | August 30, 2021 12:57 pm ET

The Boston Celtics are close to done making moves in their 2021 NBA offseason, with just one player to cut to get to the league maximum roster size of 15 regular contracts and two two-way players.

With new President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens having transformed a cap-crunched team with a thin bench and few tradeable contracts into the literal opposite, the Celtics have had one of the sneakier good offseasons in the league. But Boston fans know all too well that teams that look good on paper do not always play that way on the court.

To that end, hosts of the CLNS Media podcast “Celtics Beat” debate how well Stevens has prepared the team for the 2021-22 NBA season with Boston Globe beat writer Gary Washburn on a recent episode of the pod.

Watch or listen to the clip embedded above to get their takes on what to expect from the Celtics reshuffling the roster this offseason.

Equip your wardrobe for fall with comfortable, stylish everyday essentials from Athleta - CNN

jaringankabar.blogspot.com

CNN —  

Summer is coming to a close, and while it may mean that it’s time to put away the beach bag and say farewell to pool days, it doesn’t mean you have to bid adieu to easy, breezy dressing. No matter what is on the horizon for you with the start of the new season, whether you have kids going back to school or you just want to mix things up, your transition from shorts and swimsuits to stylish, everyday fall essentials can be made seamlessly thanks to Athleta’s wide-range of fall apparel.

Athleta offers selections that are not only stylish but are also comfortable for everyday wear. Designed to transition from your workout to workday to the weekend, and offering everything from versatile pants to essential exercise tanks, the brand offers a huge selection of athletic wear that can easily be worn alone as everyday wear or paired with your work attire (don’t underestimate the power of a structured jogger!).

Not to mention, Athleta doesn’t compromise style for comfort — or vice versa. The brand is designed for and by women, and puts an emphasis on body inclusivity and pieces that empower. Whether you’re hitting the trails or trying to stay comfortable during your workday, it’s safe to say you’ll feel strong and supported in Athleta’s clothing.

Plus, with Athleta’s September savings event, there’s never been a better time to invest in a few pieces for your fall wardrobe.

If you’re looking for a bit of inspiration for your seasonal style shift, here are some of the Athleta pieces we have our eye on for the season ahead:

Brooklyn Ankle Pant ($89; athleta.gap.com)

Available in regular, tall and petite lengths, the Brooklyn Ankle Pant is a must-have piece for transitioning to the new season ahead. And thousands of reviewers agree — these pants are as comfortable as they are flattering. Made with a breathable, lightweight recycled material, these have just the right amount of stretch and structure, and feature four convenient pockets. If you’re looking to make a splash with your fall wardrobe, consider getting the pants in one of the more colorful options like Periwinkle or Dragonfruit Pink.

In Motion Tank ($49; athleta.gap.com)

Everyone needs a classic white tank for exercising in, and this one is perfect for heading to the gym during your lunch break or going for an after-work run. Open-hole stitchwork throughout ensures maximum breathability for all types of high-impact workouts, and a semi-fitted silhouette makes this top perfect for pairing with high-waisted leggings or tucking into joggers for a casual look. You could even dress it up by wearing it with the Brooklyn Ankle Pant.

Salutation Stash Pocket II Capri ($89; athleta.gap.com)

Did you know that September is National Yoga Month? Well, what better way to celebrate than by donning a new pair of tights that are made for the studio? Buttery soft with a flattering and secure waistband, these capri-length leggings even feature two side pockets made to stash essentials. Plus, they’re sweat-wicking, which is a game changer whether you’re opting for hot yoga or not.

Solace Bra A-C ($49; athleta.gap.com)

Best for sizes A through C, the Solace bra offers all-day comfort whether you’re heading to yoga or Pilates, lounging at home or even sitting in the office. The low-cut neckline, bonded chest band and strappy back lie flat on the body and make this piece supportive enough for wearing to a low-impact workout yet still comfortable enough for everyday wear.
