![]() The Guardian has been using external experts to gauge the extent of the attack and to recover its systems.Īlthough the Guardian expects some critical systems to be back up and running “within the next two weeks”, a return to office working has been postponed until early February in order to allow IT staff to focus on network and system restoration.Īccording to a government report last year, two in five UK businesses reported cyber security breaches or attacks in the previous 12 months. The anonymous hacker, identified only as ChinaDan, posted on hacker forum Breach Forums last week offering to sell the more than 23 terabytes (TB) of data for 10 bitcoin, equivalent to about. They added: “We have seen no evidence that any data has been exposed online thus far and we continue to monitor this very closely.” At the center of each creature is a Twilight Bracelet which gives the Guardian access to the powerful Data Drain skill. “These attacks have become more frequent and sophisticated in the past three years, against organisations of all sizes, and kinds, in all countries.” ![]() “We believe this was a criminal ransomware attack, and not the specific targeting of the Guardian as a media organisation,” said Bateson and Viner. Staff, most of whom have been working from home since the attack, have been able to maintain production of a daily newspaper, while online publishing has been unaffected. The attack was detected on 20 December and affected parts of the company’s technology infrastructure. However, the message to staff said there had been no evidence of data being exposed online, so the risk of fraud is considered to be low. Online games store game and player data on encrypted servers, so GameGuardian cant modify them, as that would. The Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK’s data watchdog, has been informed of the attack, as well as the UK police. It is not believed that the personal data of Guardian US and Guardian Australia staff has been accessed either. The Guardian said it had no reason to believe the personal data of readers and subscribers had been accessed. They described the incident as a “highly sophisticated cyber-attack involving unauthorised third-party access to parts of our network”, most likely triggered by a “phishing” attempt in which the victim is tricked, often via email, into downloading malware.

It is important to note there are no images of the sides of the body or the top of the head, and the front and dorsal images are head-to-head. ![]() This means the images on the Shroud are negative images, with light and dark areas reversed. The bottom image in Figure 1 is the photographic negative of the Shroud, but it shows the body as a positive image.

The front image is on the left with head, arms, torso, and legs visible. The images of the crucified man can be seen between the scorch marks. Also shown are water stains resulting from water thrown onto the box containing the Shroud after the fire and 16 patches used to repair one burned corner of the Shroud, as it was folded in the box. It shows two long scorch marks caused by a fire in 1532 when it was in Chambery, France. In Figure 1, the top image shows the Shroud as it would normally be seen. This claim is supported by the full-size front and dorsal (back) images of a man who was crucified exactly as Jesus was crucified according to the Gospels in the New Testament, yet extensive testing in 1978 indicated these images are not due to pigment, scorch, liquid, or photography. Many people regard this cloth to be a holy relic because ancient tradition has long claimed it to be the authentic burial cloth of Jesus Christ. It is about as thick as a T-shirt (about 0.35 mm) and is very pliable. The Shroud is a linen cloth about 14 ft 4 in. Thus, the Shroud of Turin refers to a particular burial cloth that has been in Turin, Italy, since 1578. Turin, also called Torino, is a city in northwestern Italy. What Is the Shroud of Turin?Ī shroud is a piece of cloth in which a person is buried. The purpose of this article is to encourage the development of a program for future testing of the Shroud. It also includes the author’s hypothesis to explain the main mysteries of the Shroud. This article provides an overview of the Shroud, including its images, history, materials, and previous testing. That is now starting to change due to four recent papers on statistical analysis published in peer-reviewed journals. In the 1980s, the Shroud was briefly headline news around the world, but for reasons that will be discussed later, the Shroud has received little media attention for the last three decades. The June 1980 edition of National Geographic included a 24-page article with a four-page foldout of the Shroud. It has been featured on the cover of US News and World Report (1 March 2002) and Time magazine (20 April 1998). The Shroud of Turin is one of the most mysterious and potentially significant items in human possession. How was this image formed? When was it made? Who made it? Is this an image of a real person? Could this be an image of the man known as Jesus Christ? Could this be the authentic burial cloth of Jesus? These are just a few of the questions that arise. ![]() In 1931, a professional photographer named Giuseppe Enri pointed his camera at a piece of cloth called the Shroud of Turin and took the picture shown.

Remember when your history books very famously had some version of the line – “the sun didn’t set on the British empire?” It was during the Middle Ages that bartending became a full-time job, taverns were tended to by innkeepers or women- who brewed their own mixes.Īround the 15th century, being known as a bartender (which was usually synonymous with bar owner) was a status symbol in England.Īs bartenders/owners acquired a lot of property through the money they made and were very much part of the up and coming social class (see: nouveau riche). In that sense, not much has actually changed, huh? The local townspeople could have a nice drunk night out or the odd traveller could sip on fine wine as part of his adventure. This was a time where public drinking houses (pubs, as they are now called) were popular hotspots of socialization. ![]() This part of history is actually quite rich, but we must, unfortunately, for the sake (pun intended) of brevity, move on. Alexander the Great’s (yes, that one) mom was part of the Dionysian cult, so he was quite popular for his inebriety. Oh but those civilizations have gods of alcohol!

The two bonded over similar upbringings and tastes in music, and traveled the world together while working on music for Bieber's album. While in Las Vegas in January 2013, Boyd was introduced to Justin Bieber through rapper Lil Twist and other friends of Bieber's. "Caught Up" was the fifth single released from the album, peaking at number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was certified diamond by the RIAA, selling over 10 million copies in the US, and is largely considered s one of the best albums of the decade.

Jason Paul Douglas Boyd, better known by his stage name Poo Bear, is an American songwriter, singer, and music producer. The Queen has magical power only over her own domain, which is the castle. She regularly asks the mirror who is the fairest in the realm ("Magic Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all?" which is often misquoted as "Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all" ), and the mirror would always reply that she is. The Magic Mirror shows a haunted, smokey face of her familiar demon which replies to the Queen's requests. "From that time on the cruel Queen ruled all alone, her every word was law, and all trembled in mortal fear of her anger." The vain Queen owned a magical mirror with which she could look upon whatever she wished. In "another land, far away," "many, many years ago," about the time of fairy tales of castles, knights, fair maidens, romance, magic and witches," a mysterious and icily beautiful woman with magical powers (a 1938 promotional brochure suggests that she is able to work her witchcraft having sold "herself body and soul to the bad spirits" of Germany's Harz mountains) has gained her royal position by marrying the widowed King, giving her rule over his kingdom before he died. The Queen in her secret lair in an illustration by the Brothers Hildebrandt ![]() The film's version of the Queen has also become a popular archetype that influenced a number of artists and non-Disney works. Besides in the film, the Evil Queen has made numerous appearances in Disney attractions and productions, including not only these directly related to the tale of Snow White, such as Fantasmic!, The Kingdom Keepers and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, sometimes appearing in them alongside Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty. This version of the fairy tale character has been very well received by film critics and the public, and is considered one of Disney's most iconic and menacing villains. The Queen has since been voiced by Eleanor Audley, June Foray, Janet Waldo, Eda Reiss Merin, Louise Chamis and Susanne Blakeslee, and was portrayed live by Anne Francine (musical), Jane Curtin (50th anniversary TV special), Olivia Wilde ( Disney Dream Portraits), and Kathy Najimy ( Descendants). Inspiration for her design came from the characters of Queen Hash-a-Motep from She and Princess Kriemhild from Die Nibelungen. The film's version of the Queen was created by Walt Disney and Joe Grant, and originally animated by Art Babbitt and voiced by Lucille La Verne. The Queen dies in the film, but lives on in a variety of non-canonical Disney works. ![]() ![]() The film's version of the Queen character uses her dark magic powers to actually transform herself into an old woman instead of just taking a disguise like in the Grimms' story this appearance of hers is commonly referred to as the Wicked Witch or alternatively as the Old Hag or just the Witch in the stepmother's disguised form. This leads her to plot the death of Snow White and ultimately on the path to her own demise, which in the film is indirectly caused by the Seven Dwarfs. She becomes madly envious over the beauty of her stepdaughter, Princess Snow White, as well as the attentions of the Prince from another land such love triangle element is one of Disney's changes to the story. In the film, similar to the Brothers Grimm story it is based on, the Evil Queen is cold, sadistic, cruel, and extremely vain, owning a magic mirror, and obsessively desiring to remain the "fairest in the land". She is based on the Evil Queen character from the 1812 German fairy tale " Snow White". The Evil Queen, also known as the Wicked Queen, Queen Grimhilde, or just the Queen, is a fictional character who appears as the main antagonist in Walt Disney Productions' first animated feature film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) and remains a villain character in their extended Snow White franchise. (Apple makes some, including a really nice line of leather cases, and the third-party ecosystem is going to get even bigger.) It helps obscure the unsightly plastic strips, it makes the otherwise slick phone a little easier to grip, and it compensates for the awkwardly protruding camera lens on the back, which prevents the phone from sitting flat on a table. In a weird way, slim and gorgeous as it is, this iPhone begs to have a case on it. HTC’s simple, striped design on the One M8 is far better, and even Apple’s glass-strip-on-the-top-and-bottom approach for the 5S looked nicer. It just looks bad, like someone drew on my phone with a marker. The only real flaw is the antenna design: Apple opted to essentially outline the top and bottom of the phone’s back with small plastic stripes where wireless radios can transmit signal. It’s simply and cleanly designed, with a metal back that curves cleanly around the sides. Mixing form and function this way is hard to do, and Apple gets it largely right. ![]() The iPhone 6 is far friendlier and far more usable. The iPhone 5S was a stark piece of jewelry, a gorgeous object that was slightly cold and unapproachable. The iPhone 6 is the big iPhone for everyone And it shares more in common with the world’s many Android phones - and the original, curvy iPhone - than with the sharp, rectangular iPhone 5S. It’s almost exactly the same size as Samsung’s Galaxy S5, just a little thinner and a little lighter. The iPhone 6 is 5.44 inches tall and 2.64 inches wide, which slots it right in between last year’s Moto X (also a 4.7-inch phone) and the new HTC One. ![]() "This looks just like my phone," they all say.
