NATO’s largest Cyber Security Conference, NIAS (NATO Information Assurance Symposium), organized by the NCI Agency, took place in Mons, Belgium on 15-17 October.
This 15th edition of the annual symposium, will focus on: ‘Digital transformation: smart machines for smarter decisions’.
As smart machines proliferate, NATO must be prepared to tap into the potential of these technologies so that Allied leaders can make the right decisions at the right time to protect our infrastructures, troops and populations.
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Big Data are just some of the innovations, which could both threaten NATO missions or support them.
The three-day event offers a unique opportunity for NATO and national leaders, as well as cyber security specialists from across the Alliance, industry and academia to discuss best practices, exchange views and explore innovative cyber security solutions.
This annual symposium also serves as a platform for frontline IT staff and product developers to exhibit their innovations and share their knowledge of these cutting-edge technologies, which could benefit the Alliance.

In a book launch of the "Green Jobs from a small state perspective - case studies from Malta", which was edited by Saviour Rizzo and published by the Green European Foundation with the cooperation of AD's sister foundation, Ceratonia Foundation, emphasis was made on the need to prioritize green jobs in Malta. The book launch was organised by Ceratonia Foundation at Europe House.
Speaking at the book launch, AD Chairperson Michael Briguglio, who co-authored a paper in the book, said: "Civil society representatives are highly conscious of the potential of green jobs. Trade unions and environmental NGOs, for example, acknowledge that a shift towards sustainable-energy use has a potential of generating such jobs and that benefits outweigh negative repercussions such as possible job losses in other sectors. Yet, as is the case with other sectors, one should also be wary of uneven situations within the green job market, ranging from skill mismatches to precarious employment situations. Hence, economic and social policies should give priority to this sector through job creations in sectors such as alternative energy, public transport, waste management, IT, tourism, agriculture and research, among others".
Nighat Urpani, Chairperson of the Ceratonia Foundation, said: "The United Nations Environment Program places emphasis in creating green-collar jobs in agricultural, manufacturing, research and development (R&D), administrative, and service activities. This has a potential to contribute substantially in preserving and restoring environmental quality. The overall aims are: to protect ecosystems and biodiversity; reduce energy, materials, and water consumption through high efficiency strategies; de-carbonize the economy. These also help in minimizing and in some cases altogether avoid generation of waste and pollution. All the papers were research based from theoretical and practical aspects, by academics and experts with extensive experience in Green Economy and Sustainable Development."

So. I have three Exams this week and four finals next week. I'm also working more than usual this week, trying to prioritize my extra-curricular activities so as not to hurt anyone's feelings, pay my bills, keep my roommates happy with me, find a second summer job, exercise-so I don't become a fatty, oh and trying to keep my employer happy so I don't get "talked" to again (or worse, fired).... And do all of this while staying sane!
FML.

COMESA to Complement Sub-Regional Peace Initiatives
Ethiopian State Minister for Foreign Affairs of H.E. Ambassador Berhane Gebre-Christos has called on COMESA Member States to complement the efforts of other sub regional groupings in the region and continental Union involved in peace and security to avoid duplication of efforts and institutional rivalry.
Addressing the 14th Meeting of the COMESA Council of Ministers of Foreign Affairs in Addis Ababa, Saturday, Ambassador Gebre-Christos said it was not only critical to build peace where it has been established but also to overcome through dialogue the persistent stalemate characterizing some conflict situations in the region. This he said would ensure that the high risk of relapsing into violence was avoided.
The Minister cited terrorism as one of the serious threat facing COMESA region that required collective action to counter it.
“Terrorism threat posed by groups such as Al Shabab, AQIM, LRA and others is not only a problem of few countries but of each and every one of us,” the Minister said. “Our counter-terrorism efforts should begin from a clear understanding of this fundamental reality and demonstrate a firm commitment to individually and collectively fight the menace.”
He urged the COMESA states to support the peace efforts in Somalia and continue to assist, encourage and even press parties in South Sudan when necessary in order to achieve durable peace and stability.
Addressing the Ministers, COMESA Secretary General Sindiso Ngwenya said the most urgent thing was to manage and resolve existing conflicts, and ensure that the factors that led people to pick up arms are addressed comprehensively so that any conflicts that are resolved remain resolved.
In this regard, he said COMESA had prioritized the development of programmes on post conflict reconstruction and development especially in the Great Lakes Region through the trading for peace programme.
“Investing in empowering our communities at the border area and encouraging interaction between them, will be an incentive to avoid getting into activities that can disrupt the benefits accrued from the trading relations,” Mr Ngwenya said
So far, he said 10 Trade Information Desks have been established at various border posts of the Great Lakes Region that provides small scale cross border traders with information as pricing, taxes and markets.
In addition, another phase of the programme had begun this year aimed at reinforcing infrastructure at these border posts starting with the reconstruction of border offices at Goma and Kavimvira in the Democratic Republic of Congo in order to serve the traders more efficiently. The project is support by the KfW Bank under the framework of the African Peace and Security Architecture.
“During this phase, we plan to construct markets at Goma, Rubavu, Gatumba and Kavimvira, at the cost of approximately three Million dollars,” Mr Ngwenya informed the Ministers.
In addition to the post conflict reconstruction programmes, COMESA was also investing in an early warning system that is able provide indications about structural factors that need to be addressed long before they manifest. The Secretary General however noted that it was “up to policy makers to act on the warnings given, if the conflict is going to be prevented.”
Mr Ngwenya thanked the European Union for funding the Maritime Security programme, and development of COMESA mediation support and early warning programmes through the African Union. He also thanked the KfW bank, the African Development Bank and USAID for supporting the Trading for Peace Programme.
The Ministers drawn from the 19 Member States appreciated the African Union for providing COMESA with conference facilities for its policy organs meetings and Summit.

The first leg of the Nansen survey in 2018 has come to an end. It has been a busy but very interesting survey. We have been working 24 hours a day, in two shifts, from our start in Durban on the 26th of January, until we arrived in Maputo today, the 10th of February. It has been a great pleasure to have so many skilled, enthusiastic and hardworking people on board. Hope you have learned a lot, are satisfied with the amount of data you have collected and that you have had a memorable time on board. I wish you good luck with your science and hope to see you all again. I also want to thank the crew for their continuous efforts and for putting so much pride into their work.
The risk of social exclusion can be measured, quantified and prioritized. We want a more inclusive society - a society for all.

Modern society is all about #mobile #applications. That's why it's critical to prioritize websites that have the ability to load rapidly. Slow pages can be endlessly frustrating to users, after all. Slow pages are more problematic than that, too. That's because they can also lead to revenue drops. They can in some cases even encourage early exits from websites.
People these days anticipate mobile websites that are just as speedy and efficient as classic desktop websites are. #Amazon.com is an e-commerce powerhouse that indicates that slight delays can contribute to massive yearly revenue drops.
AMPs (Accelerated Mobile Pages) are swiftly gaining traction. People everywhere are beginning to look to these kinds of pages for guidance in the website speed department. With the assistance of pre-renders, AMPs have the ability to load anywhere between 15 and 80 percent more quickly than normal mobile pages do. Speed doesn't interfere at all with the efficiency and reliability they bring to the table, either.
The convenience of AMP use can often differ based on specific #CMS (Content Management System) factors. If you want to figure out whether or not AMP is a good path for you, you can employ #Wordpress as a helpful test setting. Wordpress can give you early insight regarding the appearance of your potential AMP website.
If you're looking to start testing the AMP realm, there are numerous things you can do. You can begin by installing plugins for AMP. Once the installation process is finished, you can activate any and all plugins. You can follow these things by getting Google Analytics ready to go. This will prepare your website for tracking functions.
Put together all the settings for your plugins. The right settings enable users to individualize the appearances of their #AMP pages. If you want your AMP page to have a custom style, this is vital. Configuration can also give users access to in-depth AMP support.
It's 100 percent critical to try out AMP arrangements. You can do this once you've made your URLs. It's essential to see to it that your URLs are functioning correctly according to SEO parameters. If your URLs are problematic for any reason, search engines will not place them in search results. People can test out URLs in a handful of different ways. They can select one or two websites to conduct AMP tests. They can even take the Developer Console path. Developer Console can be beneficial to people who rely on Google Chrome for all of their browser needs.
AMP URL indexation is essential, no two ways about it. After you're through with all testing processes, you need to send your vital AMP #URLs in to secure indexation. Take a look at Google #Search-Console, too. This is an imperative step for people who want to be able to successfully pinpoint any potential issues that could pop up.
It's vital, last but not least, to then perform comprehensive page speed tests. Put your basic and AMP pages into a convenient website speed evaluation device. WebPageTest is a good example. This tool makes it easy for people to figure out how fast or how slow their websites may be. Once you've successfully assessed the speed of your page, you're then totally ready to begin your exciting AMP journey. Remember, a website that loads swiftly can mean everything these days.

COMESA to Complement Sub-Regional Peace Initiatives

The Life and Public Persona of Jiefan Chan
Jiefan Chan is a prominent social media personality and model residing in Hunglix City, the capital of Glimmerland on the planet Variclex (Multiverse 0019). [1] As the elder daughter of Xiu Chan, a professional model, and Hao Chan, a sport fighter, Jiefan was raised in an environment that prioritized both aesthetic perfection and physical presence. Standing two years older than her sister, the investigator Aihan Chan, Jiefan’s life is characterized by a devotion to the "hyper-feminine" latex fashion standards of her society and a burgeoning career in the adult entertainment and modeling industries.
Professional Career and "Instashine" Presence
Jiefan is widely recognized as a "hottie" within the digital landscape of Variclex, primarily through her "Instashine" social media page. Her career is built upon the "shiny" and "sleek" aesthetic that defines femininity in her world. Unlike her sister Aihan, who focuses on intellectual pursuits and law, Jiefan embraces the role of a public spectacle, frequently engaging in street-side selfies with fans and documenting her extensive wardrobe of high-end latex outfits. Her professional trajectory has evolved from standard modeling into more provocative sectors; she has admitted to performing sex toy webcams under the persona of a "shiny rubber doll" and was prepared to begin her first professional adult film shoot at the age of 18.
Personality and Social Dynamics
Jiefan’s personality is often described as extroverted, attention-seeking, and occasionally volatile. She possesses a "show-off" nature, frequently flaunting her expensive gifts—such as a $80,000 car gifted by a wealthy fan—to her sister and her sister's girlfriend, Erika Sato. This behavior sometimes creates friction, as Aihan perceives Jiefan’s overt displays of sexuality and fashion as a distraction or a potential threat to her own social circle. Despite her "bitchy" or agitated demeanor when stressed—notably during the theft of her vehicle—Jiefan maintains a close, if complex, bond with her family.
The Stolen Car Incident
A defining moment in Jiefan’s public life was the theft of her custom purple car, which featured a hot-pink interior. [1] The incident occurred during a coordinated power outage in Hunglix City, which disabled local CCTV. Jiefan’s reaction to the theft highlighted her priorities: she was less concerned with the vehicle's mechanical value and more distraught over the loss of her "hot-pink latex sets" and professional "toys" stored in the boot. Although she initially had a "meltdown," the subsequent investigation by Aihan led to the recovery of the vehicle and a financial settlement from the police, which Jiefan accepted with characteristic opportunism, noting that she ended up "rich" without having paid for the original car herself.
Physical Appearance and Fashion
Jiefan is a practitioner of the "Shiny High" aesthetic, favoring skin-tight, high-gloss materials. Her wardrobe is diverse, ranging from full red latex catsuits to "sexy" model-shoot outfits designed to maximize her appeal on Instashine. Her commitment to this fashion is not merely personal but professional, as her income and social status are directly tied to her ability to maintain a polished, "hyper-feminine" image that aligns with the cultural expectations of Glimmerland.

Entry for MAYnifigure 2016
Red Queen: Off with their heads! I shall own MAYnifigure!!
Alice: And if not, there may be more than one way to skin a cat, if you'll pardon the expression
Cheshire cat: Err... would you mind...?
Alice and the Red Queen from the game Alice Madness Returns got the minifig treatment! Hooray!
My dual entry for MAYnifigure. My first (and probably last ;-D) incursion in minifig sculpting.
Alice is pretty accurate with the source material. The Red Queen, on the other hand, is a rather free interpretation.
I tried to make them look as official minifigs, so I prioritized using original parts, while blending all modifications as smoothly as possible. The paint job is limited to Alice's apron and color patching.
Off with her head!
On 19 February 2015, on the occasion of the Workshop on Linking Global and Regional Levels in the Management of Marine Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction”, a side event was jointly organized by the EAF-Nansen Project and the FAO Deep-sea Programme.
The event was to present aspects of the survey carried out on the seamounts in the South East Atlantic Fisheries Organization (SEAFO) area by the R/V Dr. Fridtjof Nansen and share insights on capacity development for the sustainable management of fisheries and biodiversity conservation in ABNJ.
The Side Event was opened and chaired by Merete Tandstad, Fishery Resources Officer at the FAO Marine and Inland Fisheries Branch.

The dogs are absolutely loving the snow. It brings out a whole other level of hyper in Ozzie, he goes crazy for snow. Loves to catch it, pounce in it, eat it, tackle Angel and I in it... all that fun stuff. Angel's a fan too, it's fun to see her enjoy it since she usually doesn't play the way she does in the snow. Can't wait to start 52 Weeks of Dogs with her in the new year!
I booked my wisdom teeth surgery today, January 26th, much earlier than I would've initially preferred but I suppose it'll be nice to get it over with. I'm just hoping I won't miss much school. Weird how it totally changes as you grow up- if you would've asked me a few years ago I would've milked as many days off school as I could've. It sucks having to prioritize.
What a dream come true it was to have all the 2003 Slumber Party girls to make this photo happen! Usually there is a doll or two holding me back from taking a line photo, when it comes to these old collections. However, I have taken full advantage of M.G.A.'s reissues. I can't always find them on sale, so sometimes I am still missing important dolls/components from a set. But I prioritized this Slumber Party line because I always wanted it as a kid. I actually had pretty good luck finding the original 2003 dolls in the wild the first few years I was collecting again. Yasmin was my first ever used Bratz doll I owned! She is the gal in this particular photo. The reason I wanted the reissue of her was because my doll was missing quite a few accessories and her hair was burn damaged at the front of her head. Meygan is also the old school version--I got her in 2011 from a Craigslist lot with tons of her fixings. I've had the most luck acquiring extra pieces of her clothes. Though I only ever managed to get one version of the doll herself...that was until the reissues were released. She's in great shape, but I definitely wanted the rereleased doll so I could display the second outfit. The slumber party themed shelf in my Barbie dollhouse is one of my favorite Bratz displays! My sister spent a lot of time setting these girls up with an array of their accessories. I'm still missing a few bits and bobs, but there was plenty to fill out a photo. It was also a fun excuse to use my new Lip Couch, my childhood Beauty Bed, and the Chill-Out Lounge I got at the Salvation Army years ago. It's actually missing a leg--I had to make one out of dowel and paint it silver so I could use it.
I am so immensely grateful to have all these beautiful girls and fantastic outfits! I was missing Sasha's main look for years, which is part of why I tracked down the reissue of her first (and my 2003 girl is one of my most sentimental dolls in my collection). I remember drooling over these girls in stores as a kid. I'm not sure why I never asked my dad for one. He was always pretty willing to buy me a Bratz doll back then, even if they were expensive. I was always so excited about them, I guess it made Dad happy to get me Bratz dolls. I still can't deny I'd love to find original versions of at least one of these dolls boxed someday (to open, obviously), since the reissues were simplified. But I have to say M.G.A. did a fantastic job replicating dolls and accessories that were designed over twenty years ago. They have the same quality and vibe as the originals, with a few minor tweaks. Cloe, Sasha, and Jade blend in seamlessly with the original girls in this photo...you wouldn't know they were two decades newer. Meygan is technically the 2002 issue by the way. M.G.A. repackaged her for both the 2002 and 2003 waves. But the 2002 dolls don't have holes in their slippers (the holes were added in 2003 after the introduction of the Formal Funk Super Stylin' Runway Disco, which had peg boards for the dolls to "dance" on).

NATO’s largest Cyber Security Conference, NIAS (NATO Information Assurance Symposium), organized by the NCI Agency, took place in Mons, Belgium on 15-17 October.
This 15th edition of the annual symposium, will focus on: ‘Digital transformation: smart machines for smarter decisions’.
As smart machines proliferate, NATO must be prepared to tap into the potential of these technologies so that Allied leaders can make the right decisions at the right time to protect our infrastructures, troops and populations.
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Big Data are just some of the innovations, which could both threaten NATO missions or support them.
The three-day event offers a unique opportunity for NATO and national leaders, as well as cyber security specialists from across the Alliance, industry and academia to discuss best practices, exchange views and explore innovative cyber security solutions.
This annual symposium also serves as a platform for frontline IT staff and product developers to exhibit their innovations and share their knowledge of these cutting-edge technologies, which could benefit the Alliance.

The Ontario government is moving into Phase Two of its COVID-19 vaccine distribution plan, with a focus on reaching individuals in "hot spot" communities where COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted certain neighbourhoods. In addition, this phase will prioritize individuals with the highest-risk health conditions in April 2021. With a steady supply of the COVID-19 vaccine expected from the federal government, over nine million Ontarians will be offered their first vaccination between April and end of June 2021.
