  1. Link Abu Dhabi: The GCC’s leading fashion eCommerce destination, 6thStreet.com has opened the region’s first-ever phygital (physical plus digital) store in Dubai Hills Mall on Friday. 6thStreet.com is located on the ground floor of Dubai Hills Mall, fitted with 38 tablets and 7 fitting rooms. Customers are assisted through the unique shopping experience by ten fashion advisors on the floor. 6thStreet.com is owned by Apparel Group, the global fashion retail group headquartered in Dubai. The store, in Dubai Hills Mall, is characterized by providing customers with a comprehensive experience integrated with the advantages of shopping, whether online or in-store.The store offers shoppers an immersive interactive shopping experience with access to over 20,000+ styles, unlike traditional retail stores which can display only 1000+ styles.The phygital store holds seven times the inventory of a regular store, with almost every brand the 6thStreet.com app has available in the UAE such as Birkenstock, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Crocs, Levi’s, Skechers, Adidas, Nike, Dune London, Aldo, Toms and more. The Phygital Store, which works with the best innovative technology, and indicates a brilliant future in the retail field, provides quality experiences that combine digital and traditional shopping together. It is noteworthy that customers can use tablets to browse, test and add products, as they did while shopping through the application, and the products can also be tried in the designated fitting rooms.The interactive screen allows customers to exchange volumes, request assistance and select purchases, and customers can touch and feel products amid social and enjoyable shopping experiences without any challenges or obstacles they may face such as long shipping times, limited stock in the store or waiting in checkout lines. “We were thinking of creating a ‘wow’ experience for our customers when we realised that there are certain elements, like the touch and feel and the instant gratification of shopping, that are only available offline should surely be incorporated,” said Dharmin Ved, CEO of 6thStreet.6thStreet.com was also the first in the region to introduce Live Shopping, where shoppers can directly interact with their favorite ‘influencers’ and buy their recommendations in real-time. Another offering on the app is the SuperStars tab, which is the central theme of the platform. Through the SuperStars tab, shoppers can get access to product recommendations from 600+ top influencers from the region through a social-commerce-enabled experience.
  2. Link The emergence of a new mutant coronavirus, the world's fears, following its rapid spread in the United States and Britain over the past days, have triggered nearly 9 percent of the number of recorded infections of the pandemic. The spread of "BA.4.6", one of Omicron's major mutations, was confirmed without knowing how it appeared so far, according to Science Alert's website. The latest report on coronavirus mutations issued by the UK Health Security Agency noted that during the week beginning last August 14, the new mutator "BA.4.6", formed about 3.3 percent of UK infections, to begin increasing to currently make up about 9 percent of recorded cases. Similarly, according to U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "BA.4.6" now accounts for more than 9 percent of recent cases recorded across the U.S., and mutant has also been monitored in many other countries around the world.What is a new mutator "BA. 4.6" A new version of the "BA.4" mutator, which originally dates back to Omicron. Although "BA.4" was first discovered in January of the current year in South Africa and has since spread around the world along with the variable "BA.5", it is not entirely clear how the new mutator appeared, but it can be mixed mutant, according to scientific studies.Does the appearance of the mutant represent a source of danger Speaking to Sky News Arabic, infectious disease clinical pharmacological treatment consultant Dr. Dharar Balawi said that 70 percent of infections spread around the world with the coronavirus mutator are both types of "B-A-4", and "B-A-5", but a while ago the B-A 4.6 mutant began to appear but its spread is not as big as yet, and its proportion of mutations spreading in a given country is still a bit low.Why is this apprehension of the new mutant The fear of the new mutant comes according to a visceral to contain two variants different from "B.A.5", present in its spinal protein, and these two mutations were performed to avoid antibodies that the body naturally produced after receiving vaccines, or with laboratory-manufactured antibodies and were not effective for this mutant. He noted with satisfaction that out of the 16 drugs studied, only one had been confirmed to have actually been able to be against this mutant. A study has previously shown that antibodies in the "Ephoshild" drug, the only treatment available to protect people with impaired immune functions against COVID-19, may lose their strength against the "BA.4.6" substrain. Oxford University reported that people who received three doses of the Pfizer vaccine produce fewer antibodies in response to "BA.4.6", compared to "BA.4", or "BA.5", which is a concern as this suggests that coronavirus vaccines may be less effective against the new mutant.What are the most prominent symptoms of mutant infection With regard to the most common symptoms of this mutant, he explained balaoui, that they are similar to those with the Omicron mutator, with the vast majority of infections in the upper respiratory system and a little bit of the lower respiratory tract, considering this to be "positive" so that the health condition of patients does not deteriorate or they need to enter supercare departments. Prominent symptoms of the new mutator include: leaching, muscle pain, tears in the eyes, cough, fever, runny nose, sneezing and headache.How do we prepare for the new mutator The Consultant for Clinical Pharmacological Treatment of Infectious Diseases has stressed that the spread of the new mutant of Corona requires that the eyes remain open to him to see its extent through genetic sequence analyses, in anticipation of its further spread, which calls for a higher alert against him to become "alarmingly mobile". Science Alert went on to what he eloquently confirmed, that careful surveillance of new variants including "BA.4.6" is an urgent necessity, as it may lead to a next wave of the coronavirus pandemic. For the public, basic precautionary measures and infection control methods are necessary to prevent the spread of the new mutant.

  5. Link Anything conveniently obtainable online is often ripe for cybercriminal picking, and that’s certainly true for the most commonly used software. We can’t live without them, after all, if we are to thrive and not just survive in the digital world. Our research delved into web properties that threat actors may have or plan to weaponize to lure in as many potential victims as possible. Our deep dive into the most-impersonated software in malware attacks revealed: More than 20,000 domains contain the names of some of the most-mimicked software today—7-Zip, TeamViewer, CCleaner, Microsoft Edge, Steam, Zoom, and WhatsApp. Close to 1,000 of the domains containing the seven featured applications were dubbed “malicious” by various malware engines. The 20,000+ domains containing the seven brands resolved to more than 12,000 unique IP addresses. From a sample of nearly 1,200 IP addresses, over 10% of the IP address resolutions of the cybersquatting domains were classified as malicious. Nearly 30,000 subdomains contain the names of the most-imitated programs. Close to 1,000 of the subdomains containing the software brands were tagged “malicious.” A sample of the additional artifacts obtained from our analysis is available for download from our website. Most-Favored Cyber Attack Targets VirusTotal recently identified 7-Zip, TeamViewer, CCleaner, Microsoft Edge, Steam, Zoom, and WhatsApp as the most-mimicked software brands in malware attacks. That’s not surprising given their huge user bases. We put these brands under the Domain Name System (DNS) satellite to gauge how many web properties there are that may be riding on their po[CENSORED]rity. Digital Footprint of the Most-Mimicked Software We began our investigation by using the following strings to look for domains and subdomains potentially imitating the seven software’s developers via Domains & Subdomains Discovery: “7-zip” “teamviewer” “ccleaner” “microsoft” + “edge” “steam” “zoom” “whatsapp” Given the commonality of some of the strings (i.e., “steam” and “zoom”), however, note that our dataset for the two brands may contain several false positives. That said, the search led to the discovery of 20,751 domains. A bulk WHOIS lookup for these domains showed that only nine belonged to two of the legitimate brand owners—Zoom and WhatsApp—based on the registrant email addresses indicated in their WHOIS records. These are shown in the table below. Zoom-Owned Domains WhatsApp-Owned Domains zoomevents[.]fr zoommeeting[.]fr zoomone[.]us zoomphone[.]sk zoomrooms[.]fr zoomspaces[.]us zoomvideo[.]fr metawhatsapp[.]us whatsapp-business[.]us Closer scrutiny of the domains’ WHOIS records also revealed that a majority were recently created—in the 2020s—a far cry from the legitimate company domains’ creation dates, which fell between 1991 (microsoft[.]com) and 2008 (whatsapp[.]com). A bulk malware check for the cybersquatting domains via Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) also showed that 992 were involved in malware and spam distribution.DNS lookups for the domains revealed that they resolved to 12,615 unique IP addresses scattered across 76 countries led by the U.S., Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Russia, Australia, Guinea, the U.K., France, and Hong Kong as shown in the following map.Subjecting 10% or about 1,200 of the total IP address resolution volume to TIP malware checks showed that 111 were malicious. Our search for potential cybersquatting subdomains, meanwhile, led to the discovery of 28,808 web properties, 944 of which were dubbed “malicious” by various malware engines. Overall, Steam, Zoom, and WhatsApp topped the list of the most-imitated software based on the volume of domains and subdomains containing their brand names. The specific numbers are shown in the table below. Software Domain Volume Subdomain Volume 7-Zip 5 39 TeamViewer 44 114 CCleaner 153 298 Microsoft Edge 184 487 Steam 10,000 7,872 Zoom 7,779 10,000 WhatsApp 2,588 10,000 Attack Mitigation Our digital footprinting study supports the VirusTotal findings—these seven brands are indeed heavily being imitated. What’s more, only nine out of close to 50,000 web properties belonged to the legitimate companies and at least 5% of the domains and subdomains containing the brands were flagged as malicious and shouldn’t be accessed. If you wish to perform a similar investigation or get access to the full data behind this research, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
  6. Link (CNN Business)When iPhone 14 users aren't using their new Apple device, the screen is hardly asleep. It'll remain lit with prominently displayed widgets such as alarms, calendar appointments and sports scores flittering with real-time updates, and be at the ready if you glance down or inevitably pick it back up. Apple's new flagship lineup, which goes on sale in stores on Friday, features the biggest ever change to the lock screen -- precious real estate that had mostly been a wasteland of alerts up until this point. It's not a new concept; Android has supported an always-on-display for a while but this is a first for Apple. Not only is it a way to keep users more tethered to their devices in a more passive way, the notion of finding something new to do with old space comes as purse-strapped consumers must find a reason to trade in or buy devices without major hardware upgrades. "This was like an empty garage now being fully utilized," said Dan Ives, an analyst at Wedbush Securities. "It will clearly increase time spent on the phone. ... We view it as a genius strategic move." While interactive lock screens are typically limited -- allowing for a quick check of notifications, the time, reminders, calendar appointments, and writing notes -- Apple is adding more customization and flexibility to the lock screen. It'll also show, for example, the progress of takeout delivery and an Uber arriving at your home — information previously found only inside apps. (For those who find it too complicated, they can quiet any and all widgets.) The new lock screen also gives a way to showcase photos, select custom font styles and colors, and provides better placement of notifications now at the bottom of the screen. "Apple isn't always first and increasingly they may seem behind the curve, but when they bring something to market, it tends to be very well executed," said Michael Inouye, a principal analyst from ABI Research. Inouye, however, believes an always-on display could reduce the amount of time spent on the device, allowing users to do more without having to search through apps and make the most of multitasking. "When it's only a quick notification on the lock screen and it's not interactive, that prevents those unanticipated deviations from our initial task," he said. Whether the lock screen saves time or pulls a user deeper into a time suck will likely be dependent on the individual. Apple told CNN that what a user interacts with on their lock screen will not impact their Screen Time, the iPhone's internal tracker that monitors a user's engagement throughout the week. Apple's new lock screen joins a handful of buzzy changes coming to the iPhone 14 lineup, such as the Dynamic Island, a pill-shaped area at the top of the screen that replaces the much-maligned notch. It enlarges and shrinks when calls come in, music is played or other features are in use. But much like the lock screen, Apple is trying to get the most out of what minor areas have largely been untouched for years. "These are all things companies are doing to show improvements when it's becoming increasingly difficult to do so from the hardware side," Inouye said. "Even though the hardware certainly makes advancements, from most consumers' perspective they aren't going to notice the differences in their normal day to day usage. But these changes are noticeable."
  7. Link EVGA has confirmed it will not manufacture the next generation of graphics cards In a statement on the official EVGA forums(opens in new tab), the company says "EVGA will not carry the next generation graphics cards," referring to the upcoming RTX 4000 series from Nvidia. The statement says that EVGA will continue to support and sell "current generation products," however. If you're not familiar with how the PC video card market works, companies like Nvidia design architectures for cards such as, say, the RTX 3080. Nvidia will then manufacture some of those graphics cards internally, but will also license additional manufacturers, such as EVGA, to manufacture those cards, as well.YouTube channels Gamers Nexus(opens in new tab) and JayzTwoCents(opens in new tab) both report having meetings with Andrew Han where the CEO confirmed that the company plans to cut ties with Nvidia.According to these reports, EVGA feels disrespected by Nvidia's treatment of its partners, with claims that Nvidia does not even provide pricing information to those partners until graphics cards are announced on-stage at public events. The reports further cite poor profit margins and a lack of flexibility around making more creative board designs as contributions to EVGA's decision.According to Gamers Nexus, EVGA plans to cease all video card manufacturing, and once it sells through its stock of cards - the RTX 3000 series is expected to run out by the end of 2022 - that's it. No more EVGA GPUs. Gamers Nexus says it spoke with Han "at length" about the possibility of making graphics cards with partners like AMD or Intel, but says EVGA has no plans to do so.While EVGA is best known for its versions of Nvidia graphics cards, it also manufactures things like PC power supplies, keyboards, and other components and peripherals. According to Gamers Nexus, around 78% of EVGA's gross revenue comes from video cards, though the company claims that low profit margins on Nvidia-licensed products mean that the company will be able to make up the profits elsewhere.Gamers Nexus quotes EVGA as saying that it will continue to do business, and that there are no plans for layoffs. The best graphics cards are about to start looking a lot different.
  8. Link Observers consider that the transformation of Hamas in the past years into a political address of the Palestinian cause requires it to deal with a formula that differs from being merely a resistance organization, and this prompts it to deal with the balance and repercussions of political relations; however, the move towards the Syrian regime has received wide criticism and created anger among its supporters and even its members.Ramallah- "innocence".. That was a Facebook address of a former minister in the first Government formed by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), commenting on the movement's decision to restore its relationship with the Syrian regime. Under this title, Issa Al-Jabari, the Minister of Local Government of the Tenth Government, formed by Hamas after winning the 2006 Legislative Council elections, wrote "I am convoked to the Almighty by the decision of Hamas to restore its relationship with the criminal Syrian regime." At the beginning of the statement of innocence, Al-Jabari pointed out that his decision was "to follow the approach of the Prophet Al-Mustafa ﷺ; to absolve himself from the ugly act, not from the actor in which there is much good The position of Jabari was rejected by figures from within Hamas, in rare open disagreement. His tenth government colleague, Minister of Public Works and Housing, Abdul Rahman Zidane, strongly opposed him and wrote that "the subject was killed by a debate at all levels, and in the end it is diligence, and the leadership has the right to appreciate interests." "After advice and decision, we say: hear and obey, and we don't keep flipping opinions, even if we're not convinced of justifications." Commenting on Jabari's "Innocence", Bassem Zaarier, a member of the Legislative Council wrote the solution about the movement, "The unscrupulous and unscrupulous of our cause, and the contenders for our resistance did not leave us a choice." He continued, "Yes, in the hearts, there is a submersion, but the need and interest are driving you to reconcile a system that you have no vested interests." Hamas announced last Thursday - in an official statement - the return of its relationship with the Syrian regime. The movement confirmed "its progress in building and developing well-established relationships" with the Syrian regime, "within the framework of its decision to resume its relationship with brotherly Syria in the service of our nation and its just causes, and at the heart of which is the question of Palestine." The Hamas leadership decided to leave Damascus in February 2012, about a year after the beginning of the Syrian revolution in March 2011. Since the announcement of the return of relations, the debate on social media platforms continues between a supporter and an opposition, both inside and outside the movement, Palestinian and Arab. Hassan Khrisha, a member of the Independent Legislative Council for two consecutive sessions of the Council, defended the return of the relationship, considering it "normal, because Syria is the center of the triangle of the axis of resistance, and Palestine is the compass of the axis." He saluted those who made the decision and encouraged him.. Friends and allies are known, and also the enemies of our people and the print people are known." Mohammed Abu Warda, Deputy Prime Minister of the Islamic University of the Islamic University of Gaza, said, said in his account on Facebook: "The return of relations with the Syrian regime does not understand the satisfaction of the movement, and does not last to support the movement for the policy of the regime within its land or towards His people." "The return of relations is based on the Palestinian interest in resorting camps there, and a mentor for the return and liberal project." The Jordanian writer Yasser Al-Za'ra, described, expressing his account on Tutir - the return of the relationship as "reflects the compass and in appreciation, as well as ignoring the feelings of the majority of the Palestinian people, including the sons of the movement" With the views of the views of Hamas, they are justified, according to political analysts spoken to the island Net, who also have been to repercussions of the movement and region. Hamas was not surprising, but preceded him with the seizures and many meetings even with the Syrian regime and in Damascus. He refers to efforts by Iran and Hezbollah and Russia to re-relationship, which reflects a wide desire for a large part of abroad and Gaza leaders, "despite the frequency of the Syrian regime and slow dealing with these attempts, as a result of the depth of the crisis in the past period." As for the reasons for Hamas return to Syria, Shahin says it is geography that began to narrow more and more on the movement. "Hamas is aware that the area of geography is narrowing, and that Earth pulls out of its feet, and began to see or diversify geography at least." It indicates the impact of transformations in the region in terms of deepening normalization relationships from the one hand, and the hands under the axes at the regional level on the other. Shaheen points out that the tight geography has conditions on the presence of Hamas in some countries; "This is reducing the scope of Hamas move if this is at the presence of military commanders, supply elements, military capacity development in Gaza and Lebanon," he said. In addition to Syria, Shaheen does not rule out a similar development in the relationship with Jordan. Here is another aspect and "go towards further pragmatism in the movement, which is the same as a major player in the Palestinian arena, perhaps at the region." He concluded that Hamas realized the interests at the Arab and regional level and everyone to the Syrian regime and that if he did not apply a step behind everyone. In turn, the Director of Tabos Consulting and Strategic Studies in Ramallah, Suleiman Bisharat, does not see the possibility of reading the return of relations between Hamas and the Syrian regime in isolation from a range of recent floors in the region. "There is a reinforced factor group and pushed towards this step, the first to realize the Hamas - a national liberalism - should keep communication lines with any option that is available to her, and open to everyone, so as not to fall if political isolated from After which Arab and regional." "Hamas" is masting the benefit of the political opportunity window, "and seek to take advantage of reinforcing the axis of the objection against the axis of normalization. The Hamas exit from Damascus and the movement of Arab revolutions has now changed; "Therefore, the previous decision can be re-evaluated from the forecast of developments for the future." Bisharchers are shifted until the Hamas movement in recent years to a political address of the Palestinian issue requires them to deal with an equation that is just a resistive organization, and this is pushing them to deal with the political relations and its implications. He said Hamas was holding an armed resistance option making it in need of an incubator's environment that is not provided by other political systems, despite its reception of the political leadership. As for the beneficiary of the return of relations, Veri Bisharat that "profit equation and loss will not be a minute." He adds that it is an early talk of the beneficiary, and the full return of a natural relationship or presence, "Pahmas can enhance its political presence as a reference to the Palestinian cause, in contrast to the Syrian regime to benefit from re-confidence in front of political currents Different, the area has been opened in front of Syria's internal reconciliation."
  9. Link Animals, le légendaire album de Pink Floyd, se pare ce vendredi 16 septembre d’une nouvelle réédition. Rolling Stone l’a décortiquée pour vous. Tant attendue par de nombreux fans, la réédition d’Animals (initialement publié en janvier 1977) contient en tout et pour tout : le remix stéréo 2018, le remix 5.1 Surround 2018 (tous deux orchestrés par James Guthrie), le mix original stéréo de 1977 et un booklet de 32 pages. Au passage, l’artwork mettant en scène la Battersea Power Station et la truie Algie a été modernisé par Aubrey “Po” Powell, du studio Hipgnosis. Pas de live audio ou vidéo, pas de démos, pas de versions alternatives… Et la guéguerre entre Roger Waters et David Gilmour semble priver le public d’une box set plus complète (évoqué par le batteur Nick Mason dans ces colonnes, en 2018), qui rendrait justice à cet album capital dans la discographie de la formation de Cambridge. Prévue à l’origine en 2018, cette réédition a minima fut notamment retardée en raison d’un désaccord relatif au texte du livret, rédigé par Mark Blake. Par ailleurs, on sait Gilmour irrité par la commercialisation d’un remaster d’une œuvre entièrement composée par Waters (sauf “Dogs”, qu’il a coécrit). Le bassiste, de son côté, se plaint d’avoir été banni du site officiel, etc., etc. Revenons-en à la musique. Le coup de polish ne passe pas inaperçu, à la fois dépoussiérant et lustrant, qui valorise les inspirations de chaque instrumentiste : le son des cymbales gagne en netteté, la guitare acoustique prend de l’ampleur, la basse respire comme jamais, les claviers se révèlent sous un jour plus flatteur… Un Animals en HD ! Pourquoi pas ? Cette vision sans bavures et compartimentée des différentes pierres de ce monument s’avère très agréable à l’oreille – et devrait donner sa puissance maximale en Surround 5.1 –, mais ne correspond pas forcément au propos frondeur et à l’ambiance musicale anxiogène du disque. En effet, enregistré dans les Britannia Row Studios de Londres entre 1976 et début 1977, inspiré du livre de George Orwell, La Ferme des Animaux, Animals attaque le capitalisme et l’autorité abusive. Ainsi, l’humanité, tout comme les morceaux qui composent l’album, est constituée de « Pigs » (les cochons, tenants de l’ordre et du pouvoir), de « Dogs » (les chiens, prêts à toutes les compromissions pour survivre) et de « Sheeps » (les moutons, faibles et à la merci des deux autres catégories)… Nous n’irons pas jusqu’à affirmer que ce bestiaire reflétait également l’organisation au sein du groupe, quoique. “Sheep” constitue une des compositions les plus violentes et brillantes de Roger Waters. Ne pas se fier au préambule doucereux de Rick Wright, ce titre n’est qu’un long cri où le bassiste éructe sa haine de l’exploitation des plus faibles (les fameux moutons…), entrecoupé de planantes nappes de claviers et parachevé par la guitare hurlante de Gilmour, qui se la joue heavy le temps de quelques mesures. Nous ne sommes pas en 1977 pour rien. Waters admet bien volontiers que l’immédiateté punk de la période n’est pas totalement étrangère à la férocité et à l’efficacité brute de “Sheep”, qui affiche tout de même 10 minutes au compteur. Fusion musicale parfaite entre les envolées de Wish You Were Here et la rugosité de The Wall, Animals, le dixième album studio de Pink Floyd, a atteint la deuxième place des classements au Royaume-Uni et la troisième aux États-Unis, en 1977. En 2022, parallèlement à cette réédition, Nick Mason poursuit aux États-Unis, jusqu’au mois d’octobre, la tournée Echoes, dans laquelle sa formation interprète le répertoire pré-Dark Side of the Moon. Roger Waters bat également la campagne : si quelques parties vocales de son “This Not a Drill Tour” relèvent du playback, le bassiste ne la met pas en veilleuse pour autant, qui affirmait qu’il se sentait beaucoup plus important que Drake et The Weeknd. Et Gilmour ? Pas de nouvelles depuis la parution, en avril, du médiocre single “Hey Hey Rise Up”, au profit de l’Ukraine, et qui constitue, mine de rien, la première sortie inédite et physique de l’entité Pink Floyd depuis vingt-cinq ans. Ah, si, le groupe est actuellement en pourparlers afin de procéder à la vente de son catalogue. Prix estimé : 500 millions de dollars. “Money, it’s a gas”.

  10. Link The 6thStreet.com store speaks to the UAE’s leadership in future technologies Redefining retail in the region, the store blends a physical format with digital shopping conveniences to deliver an immersive customer experience Shoppers will have access to more than 1200 brands available on 6thStreet.com: Birkenstock, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Crocs, Levi’s, Skechers, Adidas, Nike, Dune London, Aldo, Toms and more Dubai, UAE: The GCC’s leading fashion e-commerce destination, 6thStreet.com has opened the GCC region’s first-ever phygital store dedicated to fashion; an innovative tech-led space where online shopping converges with a physical store. Located in Dubai Hills Mall, the 6thStreet.com store is the future of retail, offering customers an integrated omnichannel experience with the benefits of both online and in-store shopping.

  16. Link It's #TechTember, and we're in conversation with the cover star of our September issue, PV Sindhu. She gives us the skinny on the next best gadget for her fitness workflow — the new Apple Watch Series 8, the best one yet. It's got all the features you loved about the previous models, plus some awesome new ones that will help you stay even more connected to your health and fitness. Just 24 hours with it, and PV says she's already feeling empowered. Grazia: So, which features do you use the most? PV Sindhu: The Apple Watch Series 8 has features that I use frequently — Always-On display, Heart Rate, ECG, Blood Oxygen, Cycle Tracking, Workout, and Cellular Connectivity — to stay healthy, fit, and, well, connected. It's gotten even better now with the new Temperature Sensing, safety features like Crash Detection, and enhanced battery life with Low Power Mode.G: So why does the temperature sensor matter so much to you? P: Temperature sensing is a game-changer. While it serves as a great wellness feature for everyone to track changes in their temperature, it can be more useful for women to help track their ovulation cycles by providing retrospective ovulation estimates. This is very empowering for a woman and can help in family planning. In addition, with watchOS 9, the Cycle Tracking app enables improved period predictions, which is crucial to women's health. G: We've heard many stories about how the Apple Watch has always been a lifesaver. What's particularly impressive about this generation of Apple Watch Series? P: Crash Detection is an excellent life-saving feature on the Apple Watch Series 8 that I hope none of us will ever need. For the first time, Apple Watch can detect if you're in a severe car crash. In addition, it will automatically connect you with emergency services, provide your location and notify your emergency contacts. G: When on the go, what's your go-to mode? P: I wear my Apple Watch constantly, and the new Low Power Mode on Series 8 helps me extend battery life up to 36 hours allowing me to stay connected on the go.G: Tell us about the Sleep Tracking feature. Have you tried it out? P: Sleep has become a luxury between all the traveling and constantly changing time zones. I find enhanced sleep tracking in watchOS 9 to be very empowering. It gives me even more insights with the introduction of Sleep stages. Thanks to my Apple Watch Series 8, I can plan and monitor my sleep more closely, understand how long I stay awake, and spend time in REM, Core, and Deep sleep to see its impact on my training and readiness. The best way to improve health, performance and fitness is to optimise my recovery strategies and understand my sleep patterns. G: How do you track your workouts on the watch? P: Finally, the Workout app that I rely on to train has improved with new Workout views, Heart Rate Zones to track the intensity of my workout and the ability to customise my workout. Essentially, I have my own personal strength and conditioning coach at my fingertips all the time.
  17. Link Dope Security, a Cork-based web security firm that targets the Secure Web Gateway (SWG) market, said it has raised €3.9m investment from US based Boldstart Ventures. SWGs are a security barrier that stops a network from accessing malicious websites or web traffic, and have become even more prominent as the economy has embraced remote working, as a worker’s home network connection is likely more prone to malware than an office connection.Legacy SWGs send web traffic from the connection through a remote web proxy to ‘clean’ it, which adds delays, increases the risk of network outages and dampens privacy. Dope Security has developed a system whereby the anti-malware policy is applied on the device as well, removing the need for the data to ‘stopover’, which the company says offers four times better speed. The program can only be synced with Office 365 and Google. Kunal Agarwal, founder and CEO of Dope Security, likens the product to an airline flight. “Why would you stopover when you could fly direct?" he says. “My time at legacy cybersecurity companies highlighted the need to build a first-class customer experience on top of a new architecture that eliminates reliability, performance, and privacy issues. “With dope.security, the Internet will never be a stopover flight again.” Head of product management Aidan Power stressed that Ireland remains a core part of the firm’s future. “Ireland is at the heart of dope.security. Cork is our HQ, where we will roll out further recruitment to boost worldwide operations,” Power stated The company has offices in San Francisco, Cork and Mumbai, and has a US patent approved for its technology. On top of the SWG, the firm is also offering analytics and data visualisation to improve productivity, as well as the ability to debug and run diagnostics remotely.
  18. Link The deal would combine two of three major competitors in residential door hardware.The U.S. Department of Justice on Thursday filed a civil antitrust lawsuit to block ASSA ABLOY AB’s proposed $4.3 billion acquisition of the hardware and home improvement division of rival Spectrum Brands Holdings Inc. ASSA ABLOY and Spectrum are two of the three largest producers of residential door hardware in the concentrated, $2.4 billion U.S. industry.The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, alleges that the merger would eliminate important head-to-head competition between ASSA ABLOY and Spectrum, risking higher prices, lower quality, reduced innovation and poorer service in the sale of at least two types of residential door hardware: premium mechanical door hardware and smart locks. “Millions of Americans rely on these companies’ door hardware products every day to meet their most basic privacy and security needs,” said Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter of the Justice Department’s Antitrust Division. “Competition between these two companies, which are two of the three largest companies in an already concentrated industry, has benefitted American consumers in the form of lower prices and better quality. That important competition would be extinguished if this merger were allowed to proceed to the detriment of Americans.” The complaint, which seeks to enjoin the transaction under Section 7 of the Clayton Act, alleges that ASSA ABLOY and Spectrum have competed for years to be leaders in the U.S. markets for premium mechanical door hardware and for smart locks. The proposed transaction would transform these markets, giving ASSA ABLOY a near-monopoly in premium mechanical door hardware and more than a 50% share in smart locks, leaving only one significant competitor. More broadly, a combined ASSA ABLOY/Spectrum would control approximately 50% of the overall residential door hardware market. Hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of premium mechanical door hardware and smart locks are sold each year in the United States. Premium mechanical door hardware is made of high-quality, durable metals (primarily forged brass and cast bronze), and is highly customizable, design-driven, and constructed with superior craftsmanship. Smart locks are an increasingly po[CENSORED]r type of digital door lock that can be remotely operated and monitored through a wireless connection to another electronic device, such as a smart phone or smart speaker. ASSA ABLOY AB is a publicly traded Swedish stock company headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden. It sells its residential door hardware products in the United States under the August, EMTEK, and Yale brands. ASSA ABLOY’s revenues were approximately $9.1 billion in 2021. Spectrum Brands Holdings Inc. is a publicly traded Delaware corporation headquartered in Middleton, Wisconsin. It sells its residential hardware products in the United States under the Baldwin and Kwikset brands. Spectrum’s revenues were approximately $4.6 billion in 2021.

  20. Link The pro-life movement has focused on the fight in the Supreme Court for so long that when the Dobbs v. Jackson decision finally came—overturning Roe v. Wade and ruling that abortion can be regulated—it wasn’t clear what the plan was after that. The hoped-for, prayed-for, and worked-for victory didn’t end abortion, after all. Ending Roe was just one political battle in the process, even if took 50 years. “When the decision first came out and shortly after that, there was a lot of jubilation in the pro-life community,” Timothy Head, executive director of the Faith and Freedom Coalition, told CT. “But there wasn’t a second clause to that sentence, ‘Roe has been overturned, ______.’” After a bit of a scramble over the summer, the largest pro-life groups have emerged to embrace a national plan, calling for a federal ban on abortion. They don’t see it as state’s rights issue. They want to deal with abortion at the level of national politics. They were ready to support Republican Senator Lindsey Graham when he came out on September 13 with a proposal for a ban on abortions after the 15th week of pregnancy, a few weeks after the first trimester. While top pro-life leaders may disagree with some details of the draft legislation, they focused on using it to frame the choice voters will face in the upcoming midterm elections. “The Protecting Pain-Capable Unborn Children from Late-Term Abortions Act would prevent cruel and painful abortions from being performed on innocent children,” Carol Tobias, president of the National Right to Life Committee, said in a statement. “The only thing the Democrats are offering the American people in this campaign is an opportunity to kill more and more children by abortion.” Tobias joined Graham at his press conference, along with Americans United for Life president Catherine Glenn Foster, Concerned Women for America president Penny Young Nance, and March for Life Education and Defense Fund president Jeanne Mancini. Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, stood at Graham’s right. She has pushed Republican candidates to see a national abortion ban as a winning issue. They should make it a top priority to motivate conservative Christians to vote on on election day. According to a Morning Consult poll done in July, 41 percent of evangelicals support an abortion ban with no exceptions, though for most, it is not a top priority. “If Republicans want to win elections and save lives, it is imperative they learn from past mistakes,” Tobias wrote in an op-ed in TheWashington Post. “With just two months left in this pivotal election cycle, they must learn very quickly, lest the only ‘red wave’ come from the bloodshed of countless innocents.” But not everyone in the pro-life movement agrees with this strategy. The Faith and Freedom Coalition, which was founded by Ralph Reed as the Christian Coalition for the 21st century, is pushing for a state-by-state approach.There are no big theological differences between the two sides. Both agree on the moral question of abortion. But they disagree about what to do now, after Dobbs. There are philosophical reasons for the difference. While some on the Religious Right, such as those who call themselves “national conservatives,” have been arguing state power should be used to defend traditional ways of life and American values, many still identify with the small government politics of 20th century Republicans. They believe most issues impacting the general welfare should be dealt with at the state and local level—including moral issues, such as prayer in schools and bans on abortion. There are also strategic reasons. Speaking to CT before Graham proposed his national ban, Head said he thought that kind of approach would be “playing into liberals’ hands.” Pro-life activists, he said, are more likely to win state by state than they are in a big, national confrontation. “Most groups on the Left don’t have chapters in places like Topeka, Kansas. We’re better organized across the country and have 50 times more staff in the states than we have in Washington, DC,” he said. “Conservatives are more engaged in local politics. … Conservatives are better equipped to fight a multifront battle than liberals are.” The state-by-state approach also allows the pro-life groups to advocate for different policies in different places, pushing for the legislation most likely to be successful in a specific context. A novel civil enforcement mechanism might be politically feasible in Texas but stand no chance in Illinois. Missouri voters might support a parental consent law, while in North Carolina, parental notification might be more palatable. In states like Colorado and New Jersey, where there are currently no limits on abortion, pro-life legislators could find common cause with progressive colleagues on policies that have the practical effect of reducing the number of abortions. The Faith and Freedom Coalition is talking to conservatives at the state level, for example, about legislation that rewards corporations that offer more parental leave. They also have draft legislation for programs that help mothers afford diapers, car seats, formula, and other basic necessities for caring for a newborn. “I think that’s correct, constitutionally, but also the states are the best laboratory for figuring out the right approach,” Head said. “As the states start tackling these issues, you start to see the proliferation of ideas.” A number of pro-life groups have prepared a menu of options for state legislatures. Americans United for Life, for example, has a proposed draft of legislation to completely ban abortion.“The [Legislature] of the State of [Insert name of State],” it says, “finds that (a) The life of each human being begins at conception; (b) Unborn children have protectable interests in life, health, and well-being; and (c) The natural parents of unborn children have protectable interests in the life, health, and well-being of their unborn children.” But the group also offers model legislation with more limited aims, proposing laws that would require pregnant women be informed of all their options or banning abortions done on the basis of the unborn child’s sex. Americans United for Life only had one similarly creative policy proposal aimed specifically at the national level: a draft of an executive order that a president could sign that would recognize fetuses as legal persons, entitled to due process and equal protection under the Constitution. The strategic disagreements may resolve themselves quickly, as activists and operatives respond to the political situation on the ground. And pro-life voters may well choose an all-of-the-above approach and not worry about national versus federalist political philosophy questions. Graham’s bill, however, may force candidates in the midterm election to take a stance on a national abortion ban. And it’s possible the different approaches, after Dobbs, will be an issue in 2023, as the contenders for the Republican presidential primary start to jostle for position. A similar strategic question divided pro-life activists in the days after Roe was handed down by the Supreme Court in 1973. Some urged support for targeted programs helping mothers and reducing the number of abortions, historian Daniel K. Williams writes in his book Defenders of the Unborn. But most embraced a bolder plan that was simpler to explain and backed a constitutional amendment saying life begins at conception. That decision connected the pro-life movement to the Republican Party, shaping evangelical engagement with politics and the broader political landscape for the next 50 years.There are also a few pro-life political operatives who are holding out hope for an alternative. Rather than fighting state by state or backing some kind of national ban that will become a contentious election issue for the foreseeable future, they’d like to see a creative compromise that effectively depoliticizes the issue. Perhaps Democrats could agree to ban late-term abortions if Republicans would allow a range of exceptions; maybe Republicans could accept abortion in the first trimester if Democrats would agree that no federal funding could be used. It wouldn’t be perfect and no one would be really happy, but there could be a way of reaching a national settlement that would be broadly po[CENSORED]r with voters and lower the temperature on debates about the issue, said Democratic political strategist Michael Wear. He believes a deal—whatever the details looked like—might open up new possibilities for ways to reduce abortion and help women and children. “Now is when a cultural of life is more imaginable,” Wear told CT. “One of the things Dobbs did was it actually widened the range of options the country could go in.” Still, he’s not especially optimistic about a compromise. Connecticut congressman Jim Himes, a Democrat, proposed something similar to what Wear has suggested in a closed-door caucus meeting in July. None of his colleagues seemed to think it was a good idea. No one on the Republican side has floated anything similar. “Congress can step in and let some of that steam out, or abortion politics could be worse in the next 50 years in terms of the effects it has on voters, on our politics, and on the legal regime for abortions,” Wear said. “There is a side of me that thinks, maybe this is the best it ever gets.”
