Russian Cyber Activity – The Grizzly Steppe Report - Strategy and Hacking Techniques Used to Interfere the US Elections and to exploit Government and Private Sectors

Federal Bureau of Investigation, U.S. Department of Homeland Security

Summary

This analysis report provides information and gives insight into the activities of the Russian civilian and military intelligence Services (RIS) conducted during the 2016 U.S. presidential election campaign. The Grizzly Steppe Report provides details regarding the tools and hacking techniques used by the Russian hackers in order to interfere the 2016 U.S. elections. This activity by RIS is just part of an ongoing campaign of cyber-enabled operations directed at the U.S. government and its citizens. These cyber operations have included spearphishing campaigns targeting government organizations, critical infrastructure entities, think tanks, universities, political organizations, and corporations leading to the theft of information. In foreign countries, RIS actors conducted damaging and/or disruptive cyber-attacks, including attacks on critical infrastructure networks. In some cases, RIS actors masqueraded as third parties, hiding behind false online personas designed to cause the victim to misattribute the source of the attack. This report provides technical indicators related to many of these operations, recommended mitigations, suggested actions to take in response to the indicators provided, and  information on how to report such incidents to the U.S. Government.

Dr. Thomas Seyfried, Dr. Dominic...

25% of the royalties of this book will be donated to Dr. Seyfrieds research (See KetoforCancer.net)! This research will actually make a real impact, as it studies the real causes and treatment opportunities of cancer.
This book is an overview of Dr. Thomas Seyfrieds scientific work, regarding that Cancer is a metabolic disease. It comprisesTranscripts of his talks and interviews that summarize all his most important points, as well asA Presentation by his collegue Dr. Dominic D'Agostiono about the "Press Pulse Strategy" andA possible way of eating, that would prevent cancer from the get go: The RockSolid Diet (by J.Rockermeier)
Here the description of his scientific work:
"Cancer as a metabolic disease" addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited.This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention.
Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate.
This book comprises the opinion of Dr. Thomas Seyfried regarding the metabolic nature of cancer. He states, that it is not genetic, but a mitochondrial disease.
This book is NOT a summary of his original, scientific book. It's rather a collection of video transcripts, that summarize his point. With official permission, because we donate 25% of the royalties directly to his research!

Chronicles of Canada Volume 31 -...

William Wood

No exhaustive Canadian 'water history' can possibly be attempted here. That would require a series of its own. But at least a first attempt will be made to give some general idea of what such a history would contain in fuller detail: of the kayaks and canoes the Eskimos and Indians used before the white man came, and use today; of the small craft moved by oar and sail that slowly displaced those moved only by the paddle; of the sailing vessels proper, and how they plied along Canadian waterways, and on all the Seven Seas; of the steamers, which shed so much forgotten lustre on Canadian enterprise; of the teeming fisheries which the far-seeing Lord Bacon rightly thought 'richer treasures than the mines of Mexico and of Peru'; of the Dominion's trade and government relations with nations that 'have their business in great waters'; and, finally, of that guardian Navy, without whose freely given care the 'water history' of Canada could never have been made at all.

Summary: Determined - A Science...

Brook Bryant

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
This is a summary, and it does not accompany the official 
'Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will' by Robert M. Sapolsky is a profound exploration of the concept of free will in human behavior. Building on his previous work in "Behave," which delved into the reasons behind good and bad human actions, Sapolsky advances the idea that the nature-nurture interplay significantly dictates our behavior, challenging the notion of a distinct self that controls our biology. 
The book synthesizes a current understanding of consciousness, blending aspects of reason, emotion, and responses to stimuli across one's lifetime. Sapolsky methodically debunks major free will arguments, traversing through chaos and complexity science, quantum physics, and philosophical concepts. He illustrates how historical medical perspectives, like viewing seizures as demonic possession, have evolved to a more understanding stance that reduces personal blame. 
Sapolsky also examines the implications of life without free will in the realms of punishment, morality, and societal living. Contrary to fears of anarchy and existential despair, he argues that acknowledging the absence of free will could lead to a more compassionate and humane world where judgment and self-criticism are less prevalent. 'Determined' presents a challenging yet enlightening perspective on human behavior, urging a reevaluation of how we perceive actions and responsibility.
