Creation
In 1940, writer Joe Simon conceived the idea for Captain America and made a sketch of the character in
costume.
"I wrote the name 'Super American' at the bottom of the page," Simon said in his autobiography, and
then decided.
Simon recalled in his autobiography that Timely Comics publisher Martin Goodman gave him the go-ahead
and directed
that a Captain America solo comic book series be published as soon as possible. Needing to fill a full
comic with
primarily one character's stories, Simon did not believe that his regular creative partner, artist Jack
Kirby, could
handle the workload alone.
Al Liederman would ink that first issue, which was lettered by Simon and Kirby's regular letterer,
Howard Ferguson.
Simon said Captain America was a consciously political creation; he and Kirby were morally repulsed by
the actions
of Nazi Germany in the years leading up to the United States' involvement in World War II and felt war
was inevitable:
"The opponents to the war were all quite well organized. We wanted to have our say too."
Golden Age
Captain America Comics #1 — cover-dated March 1941 and on sale December 20, 1940, a year before the
attack on Pearl Harbor,
but a full year into World War II — showed the protagonist punching Nazi leader Adolf Hitler; it sold
nearly one million copies.
While most readers responded favorably to the comic, some took objection. Simon noted, "When the first
issue came out we got a lot of
... threatening letters and hate mail. Some people really opposed what Cap stood for." The threats,
which included menacing groups of
people loitering out on the street outside of the offices, proved so serious that police protection was
posted with New York Mayor
Fiorello La Guardia personally contacting Simon and Kirby to give his support.
Though preceded as a "patriotically themed superhero" by MLJ's The Shield, Captain America immediately
became the most prominent and
enduring of that wave of superheroes introduced in American comic books prior to and during World War
II, as evidenced by the unusual
move at the time of premiering the character in his own title instead of an anthology title first. This
popularity drew the attention
and a complaint from MLJ that the character's triangular shield too closely resembled the chest symbol
of their Shield character.
In response, Goodman had Simon and Kirby create a distinctive round shield for issue 2, which went on
to become an iconic element of
the character. With his sidekick Bucky, Captain America faced Nazis, Japanese, and other threats to
wartime America and the Allies.
Stanley Lieber, now better known as Stan Lee, contributed to the character in issue #3 in the filler
text story "Captain America Foils
the Traitor's Revenge", which introduced the character's use of his shield as a returning throwing
weapon. Captain America soon became
Timely's most popular character and even had a fan-club called the "Sentinels of Liberty".
Circulation figures remained close to a million copies per month after the debut issue, which
outstripped even the circulation of news
magazines such as Time during the period. After the Simon and Kirby team moved to DC Comics in late
1941, having produced Captain America
Comics through issue #10 (January 1942), Al Avison and Syd Shores became regular pencillers of the
celebrated title, with one generally
inking over the other. The character was featured in All Winners Comics #1–19 (Summer 1941 – Fall
1946), Marvel Mystery Comics #80–84 and
#86–92, USA Comics #6–17 (Dec. 1942 – Fall 1945), and All Select Comics #1–10 (Fall 1943 – Summer
1946).
In the post-war era, with the popularity of superheroes fading, Captain America led Timely's first
superhero team, the All-Winners Squad,
in its two published adventures, in All Winners Comics #19 and #21 (Fall–Winter 1946; there was no
issue #20). After Bucky was shot and
wounded in a 1948 Captain America story, he was succeeded by Captain America's girlfriend, Betsy Ross,
who became the superheroine Golden
Girl. Captain America Comics ran until issue #73 (July 1949), at which time the series was retitled
Captain America's Weird Tales for two
issues, with the finale being a horror/suspense anthology issue with no superheroes.
Atlas Comics attempted to revive its superhero titles when it reintroduced Captain America, along with
the original Human Torch and the
Sub-Mariner, in Young Men #24 (Dec. 1953). Billed as "Captain America, Commie Smasher!" Captain America
appeared during the next year in
Young Men #24–28 and Men's Adventures #27–28, as well as in issues #76–78 of an eponymous title. Atlas'
attempted superhero revival was
a commercial failure, and the character's title was canceled with Captain America #78 (Sept. 1954).
Silver and Bronze Age
In the Human Torch story titled "Captain America" in Marvel Comics' Strange Tales #114 (Nov. 1963),
writer-editor Stan Lee and artist and
co-plotter Jack Kirby depicted the brash young Fantastic Four member Johnny Storm, the Human Torch, in
an exhibition performance with
Captain America, described as a legendary World War II and 1950s superhero who has returned after many
years of apparent retirement.
The 18-page story ends with this Captain America revealed as an impostor: it was actually the villain
the Acrobat, a former circus performer
the Torch had defeated in Strange Tales #106, who broke two thieves out of jail, hoping to draw the
police away while trying to rob the local
bank. Afterward, Storm digs out an old comic book in which Captain America is shown to be Steve Rogers.
A caption in the final panel says
this story was a test to see if readers would like Captain America to return. According to Lee, fan
response to the tryout was very enthusiastic.
Captain America was then formally reintroduced in The Avengers #4 (March 1964), which explained that in
the final days of World War II, he had
fallen from an experimental drone plane into the North Atlantic Ocean and spent decades frozen in a
block of ice in a state of suspended
animation. The hero found a new generation of readers as leader of that superhero team. Following the
success of other Marvel characters
introduced during the 1960s, Captain America was recast as a hero "haunted by past memories, and trying
to adapt to 1960s society".
After then guest-starring in the feature "Iron Man" in Tales of Suspense #58 (Oct. 1964), Captain
America gained his own solo feature in that
"split book", beginning the following issue. Issue #63 (March 1965), which retold Captain America's
origin, through issue #71 (Nov. 1965) was
a period feature set during World War II and co-starred Captain America's Golden Age sidekick, Bucky.
Kirby drew all but two of the stories
in Tales of Suspense, which became Captain America with #100 (April 1968); Gil Kane and John Romita
Sr., each filled in once. Several stories
were finished by penciller-inker George Tuska over Kirby layouts, with one finished by Romita Sr. and
another by penciller Dick Ayers and
inker John Tartaglione. Kirby's regular inkers on the series were Frank Giacoia (as "Frank Ray") and
Joe Sinnott, though Don Heck and
Golden Age Captain America artist Syd Shores inked one story each.
This series — considered Captain America volume one by comics researchers and historians, following the
1940s Captain America Comics and its
1950s numbering continuation of Tales of Suspense — ended with #454 (Aug. 1996).
This series was almost immediately followed by the 13-issue Captain America vol. 2 (Nov. 1996 – Nov.
1997, part of the "Heroes Reborn" crossover),
the 50-issue Captain America vol. 3 (Jan. 1998 – Feb. 2002),[28] the 32-issue Captain America vol. 4
(June 2002 – Dec. 2004),[29] and
Captain America vol. 5 (Jan. 2005 – Aug. 2011). Beginning with the 600th overall issue (Aug. 2009),
Captain America resumed its original
numbering, as if the series numbering had continued uninterrupted after #454.
Modern Age
As part of the aftermath of Marvel Comics' company-crossover storyline "Civil War", Steve Rogers was
ostensibly killed in Captain America vol. 5,
#25 (March 2007).The storyline of Rogers' return began in issue #600. Rogers, who was not dead but
caroming through time, returned to the
present day in the six-issue miniseries Captain America: Reborn (Sept. 2009 – March 2010).
After Rogers' return, Barnes, at Rogers' insistence, continued as Captain America, beginning in the
one-shot comic Captain America:
Who Will Wield the Shield? (Feb. 2010). While Bucky Barnes continued adventuring in the pages of
Captain America, Steve Rogers received his
own miniseries (Steve Rogers: Super-Soldier) as well as taking on the leadership position in a new
Secret Avengers ongoing series.
Spinoff series included Captain America Sentinel of Liberty (Sept. 1998 – Aug. 1999) and Captain
America and the Falcon (May 2004 – June 2005).
The 1940s Captain America appeared alongside the 1940s Human Torch and Sub-Mariner in the 12-issue
miniseries Avengers/Invaders.
The 2007 mini-series Captain America: The Chosen, written by David Morrell and penciled by Mitchell
Breitweiser, depicts a dying Steve Rogers'
final minutes, at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, as his spirit guides James Newman, a young American Marine
fighting in Afghanistan. The Chosen is
not part of the main Marvel Universe continuity.
During the "Two Americas" storyline that ran in issues #602-605, the series drew controversy for the
similarity between protesters depicted in
the comic and the Tea Party movement. Particularly drawing scorn was a panel of a protester holding
sign that read "Tea Bag the Libs Before They
Tea Bag You!" Also drawing controversy were remarks made by the Falcon implying that the crowd is
racist. In his column on Comic Book Resources,
Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada apologized for the sign, claiming that it was mistake added
by the letterer at the last minute.
The character, first as agent Steve Rogers and later after resuming his identity as Captain America,
appeared as a regular character throughout
the 2010–2013 Avengers series, from issue #1 (July 2010) through its final issue #34 (January 2013).
The character appeared as agent Steve Rogers
as a regular character in the 2010–2013 Secret Avengers series, from issue #1 (July 2010) through issue
#21 (March 2012); the character made
guest appearances as Captain America in issues #21.1, #22–23, #35, and the final issue of the series
#37 (March 2013).
Marvel stated in May 2011 that Rogers, following the public death of Bucky Barnes in the Fear Itself
miniseries, would resume his Captain America
identity in a sixth volume of Captain America, by writer Ed Brubaker and artist Steve McNiven. The
Captain America title continued from issue #620
featuring team up stories with Bucky (#620-#628), Hawkeye (#629-#632), Iron Man (#633–635), Namor
(#635.1), and Black Widow (#636-#640), and
the title ended its print run with issue #640.
Captain America is a regular character in Uncanny Avengers (2012), beginning with issue #1 as part of
Marvel NOW!. Captain America vol. 7 was
launched in November 2012 with a January 2013 cover date by writer Rick Remender and artist John Romita
Jr..
On July 16, 2014 Marvel Comics announced that the mantle of Captain America would be passed on by
Rogers (who in the most recent storyline has
been turned into a 90-year-old man) to his long-time ally The Falcon, with the series being relaunched
as All-New Captain America.

This card doesn't have much content.
Center item
In the future we may not need to make a container a flex container just to centre a single item, as the Box Alignment properties will ultimately be implemented in Block layout. For now however, if you need to properly centre one thing inside another, flexbox is the way to do it. As in the bellow example, make a container into a flex container, and then use either align-items on the parent element or target the flex item itself with align-self.
Card layout pushing footer down
Whether you use flexbox or CSS Grid to lay out a list of card components, these layout methods only work on direct children of the flex or grid component. This means that if you have variable amounts of content, the card will stretch to the height of the grid area or flex container. Any content inside uses regular block layout, meaning that on a card with less content the footer will rise up to the bottom of the content rather than stick to the bottom of the card.
This card has a lot more content which means that it defines the height of the container the cards are in. I've laid the cards out using grid layout, so the cards themselves will stretch to the same height.
Media objects
The media object is a common pattern in web design — this pattern has an image or other element to one side and text to the right. Ideally a media object should be able to be flipped — moving the image from left to right.
We see this pattern everywhere, used for comments, and anywhere we need to display images and descriptions. With flexbox we can allow the part of the media object containing the image to take its sizing information from the image, and then the body of the media object flexes to take up the remaining space.
Flipping the media object
Form controls
Submit Field
Flexbox is particularly useful when it comes to styling form controls. Forms have lots of markup and lots of small elements that we typically want to align with each other. A common pattern is to have an <input> element paired with a <button>, perhaps for a search form or where you simply want your visitor to enter an email address.

We’re one step closer to creating an iconic piece of Star Wars tech
by Ruth GaukrodgerA new gadget from Sussex university offers hologram fans a new hope. The Multimodal Acoustic Trap Display (MATD) is capable of creating simple animated images in mid-air, which can be seen, felt and heard by viewers.
In a recent demo, the MATD produced a 3D globe and a colourful, flapping butterfly. Admittedly this is a far cry from seeing a hologram of an earnest Princess Leia begging Obi Wan Kenobi for help, but it’s an exciting leap forward all the same.
Related: Best smartphone
The device works by using ultrasound speakers to levitate a tiny bead in mid-air. The bead is then whizzed around at high speed (too fast for the human eye to see) and illuminated with colour.
So although we actually see a finished 3D image, in reality the bead or “coloured particle” traces the picture in 0.1 seconds, moving at a speed of around 20mph to create the animation.
If we’re really nit-picking, this mean that the finished image isn’t technically a hologram, as it doesn’t rely on a light source. But the benefit of this device over other hologram simulators – like VR and AR headsets, or 3D TVs – is its ability to offer audio and tactile interactions.
These sensations can be created by careful manipulation of the ultrasound speakers.
The tech behind the device opens up new possibilities as well. The opportunity to manipulate matter without physically grabbing it with your grimy hands could be useful for people conducting chemical experiments or medical procedures.
Related: Best VR headsets
While holograms have sort of been around in various guises for a few years, this device was created using “low-cost and commercially available components”, making it slightly more likely that hologram devices could become affordable for the everyday consumer.
Here’s hoping we’ll be able to get our own version to play around with one day.

CRODA
Copyright (c) 1995 Ljuban Dedic
- TURN - On each turn, each player moves one friendly piece.
- Soldier - moves one cell forward, either orthogonally or diagonally. A soldier ending its move on its last row promotes to King.
- Soldiers capture orthogonally forwards, backwards and sideways by the checkers short leap (must be adjacent to the capturing piece).
- Kings move like chess Rooks, i.e., orthogonally by any number of empty cells.
- Kings capture orthogonally forwards, backwards and sideways by the checkers long leap.
- Capturing is compulsory. Multiple captures may be made in the same turn. The captured pieces are only removed at the end of the turn, and it is not allowed to jump over the same piece twice in that turn, although empty cells may be passed over more than once. Majority capture takes precedence: if a player has a choice of capturing options, he must choose the option that results in the largest number of pieces being captured (Kings and soldiers counting equally).
- GOAL - A player unable to move loses the game.
- Draws may occur by mutual impotence or three-fold repetition of moves.
An example Black moves to cell [1] and wins. Red must capture b4:b6. Then g3-g2, f2:h2 and then the Black King at h1 captures all stones, jumping h1:h4:b4:b8:f8.
There is a ZRF to play Croda with Zillions. You can also play and read extensive information about the game at the MindSports Arena.

The Contrafabulists – Kin Lane and Audrey Watters – monitor predictions that technologists and marketers make about the future of technology. No surprise, most of the predictions are made about AI, a development whose future folks have been predicting incorrectly since the 1950s.
Here are the predictions made this week:
Dunkin’ Donuts will stop using foam cups by 2020, says The New York Post.
Via the Getting Smart blog: “The Implications of Gartner’s Top 10 Tech Trends of 2018 for Education – Part 2.”
Via Bitcoin Magazine: “Report Suggests Global Spending on Blockchain Tech Could Reach $9.2 Billion by 2021.”
“In the Next Century, Brain Computer Interfaces Could be Mainstream,” says Futurism.
Via Odyssey: “ The Future Of Robotics In The Next 10 Years.”
Via The New York Times: “His 2020 Campaign Message: The Robots Are Coming.” That’s Andrew Yang, who plans to run for President.

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a coding methodology that encourages simple designs and inspires confidence. TDD is rediscovered by Kent Beck that relies on short development cycles. The steps for TDD are : 1. Add a test 2. Run all tests and if the new ones fails 3. Write some code 4. Run tests 5. Refactor code 6. Repeat The benefits of TDD are that programmers who wrote tests were more productive. Writing tests allow programmers to focus on the end-user requirements and derive the best solutions in their coding design. TDD can lead to more modularized, flexible, and extensible code. However, as with every subject, there are shortcomings. TDD cannot operate efficiently without the management support since writing tests = time to write/maintain and money. TDD is a programming methodology, which means that it is systematic, but working alone might defer this process. Pair-programming is a solution, since the roles of driver/navigator ensures that each of the steps are implemented and discussed for better designs. There are numerous programming methodologies such as SCRUM, AGILE, and etc. One cannot say that one method is better than the other due to the context of the programmer and the environment. However, from many blogs and related searches, TDD is definitely catching attention from well-known programmers. Finally, whether we use TDD or other methods, we must always remember to keep our code efficient and DRY so that our work can be reused by ourselves and our peers.

The following view helps you to see the balance between strengths and learning needs (weaknesses). Our strengths are something which we are good at but when over-utilized they can also turn into our weaknesses. E.g., being ‘straight-forward’ is a strength, but when we become too straight-forward we may come across to others as being ‘blunt’.

<modules>Note: When using Titanium Mobile SDK version 1.7.x, use version 1.x of com.dmarie.sql. When using Titanium Mobile SDK version 1.8.x, use version 2.x of com.dmarie.sql.
<module version="2.1">com.dmarie.sql</module>
</modules>
var dmariesql = require("com.dmarie.sql");The dmariesql variable is a reference to the Module object.
This section describes all the methods contained in the native
module, com.dmarie.sql.
Note, however, that it is not necessary to call these methods
directly. Instead, you can use the CommonJS wrapper
"db.js" instead. See the CommonJS "db.js" wrapper
documentation below for details.
open_db(filename, password)
Open a database file.
filename: This is
the full path and file name of the database to open. If the
database does not exist, it will be created.
example: /sdcard/mydatabase.db
password: This is either an encryption key for the database, the string "DEFAULT", or an empty string.
If a string (other than "DEFAULT") is passed, then this string
will be used as the encryption key for the database.
If the string "DEFAULT" is passed, then the value of
Titanium.App.guid will be used as the encryption key.
If an empty string "" is passed, the database will not be
encrypted.
This method returns the full path and file name of the database
that was opened.
example: /sdcard/mydatabase.db
execute(sql)
Execute a SQL statement on the currently open database file.
sql: This is a
string containing sql code to execute on the currently open
database.
example: create table people (firstName TEXT, lastName TEXT,
address TEXT, city TEXT, state TEXT, zip TEXT)
select(sql)
Execute a SQL select
statement on the currently open database file and return the data
as a nested array of strings.
sql: This is a
string containing sql code to execute on the currently open
database. It must be a "select" statement.
example: select firstName, lastName, address, city, state, zip
from people
var results = SQLOBJ.select("select firstName, lastName, address, city, state, zip from people");results[0] contains an array of field names ["firstName", "lastName", "address", "city", "state", "zip"]
close_db()
Close the currently open database file.
none
var db = require("db.js");The db variable is a reference to the CommonJS object.
dbPath
This is the path where all database files exist. It must
contain a trailing slash.
example:
var db = require("db.js");
db.dbPath = "/sdcard/"; // put all database files in the root of the sdcard
openDB(filename, password)
Open a database file and return a handle to the open database object.
filename: This file
name of the database to open (in the folder specified by
dbPath.) If the database does not exist, it will be created.
example: mydatabase.db
password: This is either an encryption key for the database, the string "DEFAULT", or an empty string.
If a string (other than "DEFAULT") is passed, then this string
will be used as the encryption key for the database.
If the string "DEFAULT" is passed, then the value of
Titanium.App.guid will be used as the encryption key.
If an empty string "" is passed, the database will not be
encrypted.
This method returns a handle to the database object that was
opened.
example:
var db = require("db.js");
var myDatabase db.openDB("myDatabase.db", "secretPassword"); // encrypt the database with the key: secretPassword
The following methods can only be called on a database object
returned by the openDB method.
close()
Close the currently open database.
none
null
example:
var db = require("db.js");
var myDatabase db.openDB("myDatabase.db", "secretPassword"); // encrypt the database with the key: secretPassword
myDatabase.close();
dbAttach(filename, alias, key)
Attach another database to the currently open database object
using the SQLite attach
command.
filename: This is a
string containing a fully-qualified path and filename for the file
to attach.
example: /sdcard/MyJoinedDatabase.db
alias: This is a
string to use as the alias for the attached database
example: alias
key: This is a
string containing the encryption key used to open the attached
database.
example: secretPassword
example:
var db = require("db.js"); var myDatabase db.openDB("myDatabase.db", "secretPassword"); // encrypt the database with the key: secretPassword myDatabase.dbAttach("/sdcard/MyJoinedDatabase.db","alias","secretPassword"); // join in MyJoinedDatabase with key of "secretPassword" myDatabase.execute("select firstName, lastName, alias.otherData as otherData from people " +
"join alias.otherTable on people.lastName = alias.otherTable.lastName");
execute(sql) (non-select statments)
Execute a SQL statement on the currently open database object.
sql: This is a
string containing sql code to execute on the currently open
database object.
example: create table people (firstName TEXT, lastName TEXT,
address TEXT, city TEXT, state TEXT, zip TEXT)
example:
var db = require("db.js");
var myDatabase db.openDB("myDatabase.db", "secretPassword"); // encrypt the database with the key: secretPassword
myDatabase.execute("create table people (firstName TEXT, lastName TEXT, address TEXT, city TEXT, state TEXT, zip TEXT)");
execute(sql) or select(sql) (select statments)
Execute a SQL select statement on the currently open database
object and return a recordset object.

CISF canines retire with medals, selfies and hugs
While it is usual for those who retire from service to get medals, certificates and mementos on their last day at work, seven canines of the Central Industrial Security Force had a similar farewell on Tuesday and earned some salutes and selfies with the troops in uniform.
In a unique ceremony, Hina, Kite, Jelly, Jessy, Lucy, Lovely and the lone male dog Veer were accorded a warm send-off by the CISF after they completed their varied tenures in securing the Delhi Metro against various threats and nefarious activities.
The CISF's Delhi Metro security head and Deputy Inspector General Raghubir Lal awarded the dogs, who were accompanied by their handlers, medals, certificates of appreciation and mementos at a ceremony held at a force camp here.
A special farewell was accorded to them by troops in uniform who lined up to salute the four-legged soldiers as they took their last walk in the camp.
"These canines have conducted anti-sabotage checks on thousands of suspicious items, bags and narcotics and participated in numerous mock drills and anti-terror sweeping exercises at the Delhi metro that witnesses a footfall of over 28 lakh each day," Lal said.
WATCH: CISF canines get special send-off
"They have kept us all safe for so many years and hence a befitting farewell was arranged for them," he said.
Handlers and some other CISF troops were seen hugging and taking selfies with the canines after the ceremony.
"It is like parting from a dear friend. This is an emotional moment," a jawan who took a selfie with Veer said.
The dogs who retired were of three different breeds like labradors (Hina, Kite, Jelly, Lucy and Lovely), a cocker spaniel (Veer) and a German shepherd (Jessy).
The canines were later handed over to a local NGO who will take care of them, Lal said.
The CISF has deployed over 13,000 troops and over 50 canines to secure the over 200 metro stations operational in the national capital region.

Gut Instinct: Creating Scientific Theories with Online Learning
Our intuition is that scientific crowdsourcing will most usefully contribute to domains where science is nascent and/or highly contextual. The human microbiome project is both.
This paper explores the potential of coupling online citizen science with learning materials to create scientific questions.
Example:
Foldit players discovered protein structures that helped scientists understand how the AIDS virus reproduces.
The main contribution of this paper is demonstrating that a crowd of online non-expert learners can collaboratively perform useful scientifc work.
Gut Instinct, which brings together learnes to perform useful collaborative brainstorming on a citizen science project while developing expertise.
Collectively aggregating many people's responses can produce faster, better, and more reliable results - at much larger scale - than lone individuals can, at least errors andd biases are independent events.
Our novel contribution is an explicit integration of learning.
Hypotheses:
Learning improves quality of work on relevant problems.
Working on relevant real-world problems improves learning.
Working while learning improves learners’ en- gagement with the learning material.

cPrecisionClock provides a class to manage high-precision time measurements. All measurements are computed in seconds unless otherwise-specified.
cPrecisionClock behaves just like a real chronograph: It can be started, stopped and restarted a later time. When the clock is running (ON), time is accumulated until the next stop event (OFF). The value of the clock can be read at any time by calling method getCurrentTimeSeconds(). When the clock is stopped (OFF), time is no longer accumulated.

Ruby
Installation
To install Themis for ruby, type:
gem install rubythemis
and add
require 'rubythemis';
to your code.
Usage
Key Pair Generation
Themis supports Elliptic Curve and RSA algorithms for asymmetric cryptography
generator = Themis::SKeyPairGen.new
private_key, public_key generator.ec # or generator.rsa
Secure Message
For detailed explanation of Secure Message, see corresponding page in Objects guide
Initialize encrypter:
smessage = Themis::Smessage.new(private_key, peer_public_key)
Encrypt message:
encrypted_message = smessage.wrap(message)
rescue ThemisError => e:
# error occured
Decrypt message:
encrypted_message = smessage.unwrap(message)
rescue ThemisError => e:
# error occured
Secure Cell
All Secure Cell modes has an optional parameter context
. For detailed explanation of various modes and their strengths and weaknesses, see objects guide and cryptosystem description for Secure Cell.
Seal Mode
Initialize encrypter/decrypter
scell_full = Themis::Scell.new(key, Themis::Scell::FULL_MODE)
Encrypt
encrypted_message = scell_full.encrypt(message, context)
Decrypt
decrypted_message = scell_full.decrypt(encrypted_message, context)
Token-protect Mode
Initialize encrypter/decrypter
scell_auto_split = Themis::Scell.new(key, Themis::Scell::AUTO_SPLIT_MODE)
Encrypt
encrypted_message, additional_auth_data = scell_auto_split.encrypt(message, context)
Decrypt
decrypted_message = scell_auto_split.decrypt([encrypted_message, additional_auth_data], context)
Context-Imprint Mode
Initialize encrypter/decrypter
scell_user_split = Themis::Scell.new(key, Themis::Scell::USER_SPLIT_MODE)
Encrypt
encrypted_message = scell_user_split.encrypt(message, context)
Decrypt
decrypted_message = scell_user_split.decrypt(encrypted_message, context)
Secure Session
Secure Session can be used in two ways: - send/recieve - when communication flow is fully controled by secure session object - wrap/unwrap - when communication controled by user
NOTE: We consider wrap/unwrap more fit for typical ruby frameworks (we've taken a look at Ruby on Rails and Eventmachine), so present examples for wrap/unwrap only. However, if you find that fully-automatic send/receive might be a good use case for anything, let us know.
Secure Session has two parties - called client and server for simplicity, but they could more precisely be called initiator and acceptor - they only differ in who starts the communication.
Secure Session relies on user passing a number of callback functions to send/receive messages, retrieve keys from local storage (see more at Secure Session cryptosystem description).
wrap/unwrap
Initialize callbacks class:
class Callbacks_for_themis < Themis::Callbacks
def get_pub_key_by_id(id)
# retrieve public_key for id from trusted storafe (file, db etc.)
return public_key
end
end
Secure Session client
First, initialization:
@callbacks = Callbacks_for_themis.new
@session = Themis::Ssession.new(id, private_key, @callbacks)
# key method call - it is a client
connect_request = @session.connect_request()
#send connect_request to server
#receive message from server
res, message = @session.unwrap(message)
while res==Themis::SEND_AS_IS:
# send message to server
end
After the loop finishes, Secure Session is established and is ready to be used.
To encrypt outgoing message use:
encrypted_message = @session.wrap(message);
#send encrypted_message by any prefered method
To decrypt received message use:
#receive encrypted_message from peer
message = session.unwrap(encrypted_message)
Secure Session server
First, initialize everything.
@callbacks = Callbacks_for_themis.new
@session = Themis::Ssession.new(id, private_key, @callbacks)
#there is not connect_request call - it is a server
#receive message from client
res, message = @session.unwrap(message)
while res==Themis::SEND_AS_IS:
# send message to client
end
Secure session is ready.
Send/receive works same way as client's example above.


Hello TRISA Admins,
We have received a new TRISA Global Directory registration request from a VASP that needs to be reviewed. The requestor has verified their email address(es) and received a PKCS12 password to decrypt a certificate which will be generated only if you approve this request. The request YAML is:
{{ .Request }}
To verify or reject the registration request, use the following metadata with the
gds review
command:
To accept the registration, use the command line tool as follows:
$ gds review -i {{ .VID }} -t {{ .Token }} -a
To reject the registration, provide a rejection message as the last argument:
$ gds review -i {{ .VID }} -t {{ .Token }} -R -m ""
Note that we're working to create a URL endpoint for the vaspdirectory.net site to simplify the review process. We're sorry about the inconvenience of this method at the early stage of the TRISA network.
Best Regards,
TRISA Global Directory Service Team


Game of Thrones brutally snubbed by Golden Globes in nominations shocker
Hit HBO fantasy drama Game of Thrones has been snubbed by 77th Golden Globe Awards following controversial final season
by Lewis Knight, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/lewis-knight/The war for Westeros is over and so is the Golden Globes' love affair with the fantasy realm.
Despite having been arguably the television event of the year, HBO fantasy drama Game of Thrones did not receive any major nominations apart from a single acting nod.
British actor Kit Harington was nominated for 'Best Performance by an Actor In A Television Series – Drama' for his role as the heroic Jon Snow.
He faces tough competition, however, from fellow British actors Tobias Menzies as Prince Philip in The Crown and Brian Cox for Succession, Oscar winner Rami Malek for Mr Robot, and Billy Porter for Pose.
Porter took home the equivalent award earlier this year at the 2019 Primetime Emmy Awards.
The series lost out on the biggest award of the evening as 'Best Television Series – Drama' nominations were handed out instead to Killing Eve , The Crown , Big Little Lies, The Morning Show, and Succession.
The Emmys awarded the equivalent award to the epic series mere months ago, but it seems love has worn off from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Other acting heavyweights from the fantasy series such as Peter Dinklage - who won an Emmy for his performance as Tyrion Lannister in the final season - and Lena Headey were also locked out of nominations for supporting turns in the show too.
Could this be symptomatic of how divisive the final season was for many viewers and critics?
Or is it just that the episodes aired quite some time ago now?
The 77th Golden Globe Awards take place on January 5, 2020.
Let us know what you think of the snub of Game of Thrones in the comments below.

FAA seeks public input on Las Vegas Metroplex Project
by Mick AkersFederal aviation officials will seek comment next month from Las Vegas Valley residents on its Metroplex Project.
Although the airspace around the valley is safe, the Federal Aviation Administration’s Metroplex project focuses on the efficiency of the routes in the area.
The FAA proposes to address the inefficiencies by implementing new routes that are more direct, automatically separated from each other, and have efficient climb and descent profiles.
Potential benefits of these routes can include reducing pilot-controller communications, miles flown, fuel burn and CO2 emissions.
The project uses a satellite-based navigation system to design routes as opposed to the decades-old beacon navigation system used today.
The project consists of new and replacement arrival and departure routes for McCarran International Airport, Henderson Executive Airport and North Las Vegas Airport.
A 32-day public comment period on the project’s draft environmental assessment began Monday with the release of the environmental assessment and runs through Dec. 20.
The draft environmental assessment revealed the project would not pose significant environmental impacts under federal environmental law.
The FAA will host five public workshops for the Draft EA between Dec. 9 and Dec. 13. The workshops will feature informational videos and display boards that show existing and proposed routes and explain the inefficiencies in the current system.
FAA representatives will be on hand to answer questions and demonstrate the Google Earth features.
After evaluating and responding to public comments, the FAA could adopt the entire proposal, adopt portions of it, or modify it. Those possible adoptions could occur as early as the middle of next year.
The workshops will be open-house format, where people can attend any time during the posted times to learn about the project. Free parking will be available at all locations.
The workshop dates and locations are as follows:
Dec. 9
5 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
Clark County Government Center – Pueblo Room
500 S. Grand Central Pkwy., Las Vegas, NV 89155
Dec. 10
5 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
North Las Vegas Airport Grand Canyon Conference Room
2730 Airport Drive, North Las Vegas, NV 89032
Dec. 11
5 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
Desert Breeze Community Center – Meeting Room
8275 Spring Mountain Road, Las Vegas, NV 89147

LeBron stars as Lakers eke out win, LaVine's massive 49 sets Bulls record and Spurs end eight-game losing streak
A wrap of the overnight NBA action.
by AFPLEBRON JAMES AND the Los Angeles Lakers stretched their NBA winning streak to seven games with a gritty 109-108 victory over the Grizzlies in Memphis.
James scored 30 points and pulled down six rebounds and Anthony Davis added 22 points and blocked five shots as the Lakers rallied late to snatch the win.
James drove for a layup with 1:30 remaining to cap a 7-0 scoring run that put the Lakers up 107-105 — and they wouldn’t trail again.
Memphis, down by one with 1.3 seconds remaining, had a final chance, but they came up empty when Jaren Jackson fell trying to grab an inbounds pass.
“We just got timely stops and made timely shots,” James said. “After they scored a lot of points in the first half we held them to 45 in the second half.”
Coming into the game off a 130-127 victory over the Thunder in Oklahoma City on Friday, James knew the Lakers might be feeling the effects of the back-to-back on the road.
“They had 10 threes at the half, they were beating us in all aspects — free throw attempts, fastbreak points, everything,” he said. “We just kept our composure. After the way they started out, pretty good win for us.”
It was also close in Charlotte, where Zach LaVine’s career-high 49 points included a game-winning three-pointer off a steal by teammate Coby White, that gave the Chicago Bulls a 116-115 victory over the Hornets.
LaVine made 13 of 17 three-point attempts and 17 of 28 shots overall.
He became just the third player in NBA history to make 13 or more threes in a game, after Golden State Warriors stars Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, and his 13 three-pointers comes as a Bulls record.
Terry Rozier led the Hornets, who surrendered a five-point lead in the final eight seconds.
- Spurs snap skid -
The San Antonio Spurs ended their eight-game losing streak in emphatic style, leading by as many as 28 in a 111-104 victory over Eastern Conference stragglers the Knicks in New York.
LaMarcus Aldridge scored 23 points for the Spurs, who never trailed.
DeMar DeRozan added 21 points and nine rebounds for San Antonio, whose eight-game skid was their longest since the 1996-97 season when current coach Gregg Popovich was general manager and Bob Hill was head coach.
Popovich, who has guided the Spurs to five titles since taking over as coach, had voiced confidence in his players despite their struggles before the game.
“Whether you’re winning or losing, the reasons remain the same why you win and why you lose. So you just keep working every day to try to get everything going in the same direction,” he said.
His faith was rewarded as the Spurs connected on 53.3 percent of their shots from the field — 59 percent in the first half as they took a 68-43 lead.
Marcus Morris led the Knicks with 20 points. His four-point play with 3:57 left in the third trimmed the deficit to 105-96, and RJ Barret followed with a basket that pulled the Knicks within seven points — as close as they would get.
Jimmy Butler, whose arrival in Miami in an off-season sign and trade deal has sparked the Heat to a strong start, endured a dismal return to Philadelphia, where the 76ers led by as many as 41 points in a 113-86 thrashing of the Heat.
Butler, booed by the Philly crowd, scored just 11 points on four-of-13 shooting.
Meanwhile Josh Richardson, transplanted this season from Miami to Philadelphia, led the Sixers with a season-high 32 points, draining six of seven three-point attempts.
Joel Embiid added 23 points and 11 rebounds for Philadelphia.


Like most geeks, I tend to stay on my computer way too late at night. Even though I’ve read too many studies about computer use at night, I can’t seem to help myself.
Tonight, my wife turned me onto an app that I’ve needed for years: f.lux. By the app’s own description:
Ever notice how people texting at night have that eerie blue glow?
Or wake up ready to write down the Next Great Idea, and get blinded by your computer screen?
 But, at 9PM, 10PM, or 3AM, you probably shouldn’t be looking at the sun.
f.lux fixes this: it makes the color of your computer’s display adapt to the time of day, warm at night and like sunlight during the day.
It’s an amazingly easy process: simply choose a color scheme and brightness for “daytime” and “at night” and let the app do the work. As day turns into night, f.lux takes care of it.
Even after just an hour of use, my eyes already feel better – I don’t feel like I’m “looking at the sun.” I’ll be curious to see if this improves my sleep habits at night (although, I suppose the cure-all would be to shut this thing off at a reasonable hour…but that sounds awfully difficult).


LOADKEYS(1) LOADKEYS(1) NAME loadkeys - load keyboard translation tables SYNOPSIS loadkeys [ -b --bkeymap ] [ -c --clearcompose ] [ -C '<cons1 cons2 ...>' | --console=cons1,cons2,... ] [ -d --default ] [ -h --help ] [ -m --mktable ] [ -q --quiet ] [ -s --clearstrings ] [ -u --unicode ] [ -v --verbose ] [ filename... ] DESCRIPTION The program loadkeys reads the file or files specified by filename.... Its main purpose is to load the kernel keymap for the console. The affected console device or devices can be specified using the -C (or --console ) option. This option supports a list of device names RESET TO DEFAULT If the -d (or --default ) option is given, loadkeys loads a default keymap, probably the file defkeymap.map either in /usr/share/keymaps or in /usr/src/linux/drivers/char. (Probably the former was user-defined, while the latter is a qwerty keyboard map for PCs - maybe not what was desired.) Sometimes, with a strange keymap loaded (with the minus on some obscure unknown modifier combination) it is easier to type `loadkeys defkeymap'. LOAD KERNEL KEYMAP The main function of loadkeys is to load or modify the keyboard driver's translation tables. When specifying the file names, standard input can be denoted by dash (-). If no file is specified, the data is read from the standard input. For many countries and keyboard types appropriate keymaps are available already, and a command like `loadkeys uk' might do what you want. On the other hand, it is easy to construct one's own keymap. The user has to tell what symbols belong to each key. She can find the keycode for a key by use of showkey(1), while the keymap format is given in keymaps(5) and can also be seen from the output of dumpkeys(1). LOAD KERNEL ACCENT TABLE If the input file does not contain any compose key definitions, the ker‐ nel accent table is left unchanged, unless the -c (or --clearcompose ) option is given, in which case the kernel accent table is emptied. If the input file does contain compose key definitions, then all old defini‐ tions are removed, and replaced by the specified new entries. The kernel accent table is a sequence of (by default 68) entries describing how dead diacritical signs and compose keys behave. For example, a line compose ',' 'c' to ccedilla means that <ComposeKey><,><c> must be combined to <ccedilla>. The cur‐ rent content of this table can be see using `dumpkeys --compose-only'. LOAD KERNEL STRING TABLE The option -s (or --clearstrings ) clears the kernel string table. If this option is not given, loadkeys will only add or replace strings, not remove them. (Thus, the option -s is required to reach a well-defined state.) The kernel string table is a sequence of strings with names like F31. One can make function key F5 (on an ordinary PC keyboard) produce the text `Hello!', and Shift+F5 `Goodbye!' using lines keycode 63 = F70 F71 string F70 = "Hello!" string F71 = "Goodbye!" in the keymap. The default bindings for the function keys are certain escape sequences mostly inspired by the VT100 terminal. CREATE KERNEL SOURCE TABLE If the -m (or --mktable ) option is given loadkeys prints to the standard output a file that may be used as /usr/src/linux/drivers/char‐ /defkeymap.c, specifying the default key bindings for a kernel (and does not modify the current keymap). CREATE BINARY KEYMAP If the -b (or --bkeymap ) option is given loadkeys prints to the standard output a file that may be used as a binary keymap as expected by Busybox loadkmap command (and does not modify the current keymap). UNICODE MODE loadkeys automatically detects whether the console is in Unicode or ASCII (XLATE) mode. When a keymap is loaded, literal keysyms (such as section) are resolved accordingly; numerical keysyms are converted to fit the cur‐ rent console mode, regardless of the way they are specified (decimal, octal, hexadecimal or Unicode). The -u (or --unicode) switch forces loadkeys to convert all keymaps to Unicode. If the keyboard is in a non-Unicode mode, such as XLATE, load‐ keys will change it to Unicode for the time of its execution. A warning message will be printed in this case. It is recommended to run kbd_mode(1) before loadkeys instead of using the -u option. OTHER OPTIONS -h --help loadkeys prints its version number and a short usage message to the programs standard error output and exits. -q --quiet loadkeys suppresses all normal output. WARNING Note that anyone having read access to /dev/console can run loadkeys and thus change the keyboard layout, possibly making it unusable. Note that the keyboard translation table is common for all the virtual consoles, so any changes to the keyboard bindings affect all the virtual consoles simultaneously. Note that because the changes affect all the virtual consoles, they also outlive your session. This means that even at the login prompt the key bindings may not be what the user expects.
