Summary

 Ethical hacking, also known as penetration testing or white-hat hacking, is a practice of deliberately probing and assessing the security of computer systems, networks, applications, and other digital environments in order to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could potentially be exploited by malicious hackers. The primary goal of ethical hacking is to proactively uncover these vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by unauthorized individuals or groups, thereby helping organizations strengthen their security measures and protect their sensitive information. Key aspects of ethical hacking include: Authorization: Ethical hackers must obtain proper authorization from the owner or administrator of the system before conducting any tests. This ensures that the testing process remains within legal and ethical boundaries. Methodology: Ethical hacking involves a systematic and structured approach to identify vulnerabilities. This includes various techniques like network scanning, penetration testing, social engineering, and vulnerability assessment. Scope: The scope of an ethical hacking engagement is defined before the testing begins. It outlines the systems, applications, and networks that will be tested. Staying within the defined scope ensures that only authorized systems are tested. Information Gathering: Ethical hackers gather information about the target systems, including their architecture, software versions, and potential weak points. This information helps them plan their testing approach. Vulnerability Analysis: Ethical hackers use various tools and techniques to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and weak points in the target systems. These vulnerabilities could include software bugs, insecure configurations, or design flaws. Exploitation: In a controlled environment, ethical hackers might attempt to exploit the identified vulnerabilities to demonstrate the potential impact of a real attack. However, they stop short of causing...

    The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
 
 
 
Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
 
 
 
Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.

    Over the Seawall - Tsunamis...

    In March 2011, people in a coastal Japanese city stood atop a seawall watching the approach of the tsunami that would kill them. They believed—naively—that the huge concrete barrier would save them. Instead they perished, betrayed by the very thing built to protect them. Erratic weather, blistering drought, rising seas, and ecosystem collapse now affect every inch of the globe. Increasingly, we no longer look to stop climate change, choosing instead to adapt to it. 
 
 
 
Never have so many undertaken such a widespread, hurried attempt to remake the world. Predictably, our hubris has led to unintended—and sometimes disastrous—consequences. Academics call it maladaptation; in simple terms, it's about solutions that backfire. Over the Seawall tells us the stories behind these unintended consequences and the fixes that can do more harm than good. From seawalls in coastal Japan, to the reengineered waters in the Ganges River Delta, to the artificial ribbon of water supporting both farms and urban centers in parched Arizona, Stephen Robert Miller traces the histories of engineering marvels that were once deemed too smart and too big to fail. In each he takes us into the land and culture, seeking out locals and experts to better understand how complicated, grandiose schemes led instead to failure, and to find answers to the technologic holes we've dug ourselves into.

    Is it possible that one of the biggest obstacles to harmonizing science and faith can finally be overcome? Respected biologist and former atheist Sy Garte says the answer is yes. A flash point for much of the science vs. faith divide has been Darwinian evolution. Sharing the same mistaken belief that science contradicts the Bible, especially the Genesis account of creation, many scientists and many Christians have concluded that the worlds of science and religion are at odds. But according to biologist Sy Garte, PhD, evolution is irrelevant to the harmony of faith and science. And revolutionary new developments in biology are providing stronger evidence than ever before of a purposeful creator God. In his new book, Dr. Garte combines the latest research with a biblical worldview as he explains:  how scientific progress has been hindered by the reluctance of many biologists to follow the evidence wherever it leads because of their fear of opening the door to theism  why misunderstandings about both the Bible and science have caused many people to unnecessarily abandon Christianity  why evolution by natural selection isn’t as important to science as many people think―and why it matters  how new evidence of purpose, agency and decision-making at the cellular level points to a creator God  how a reductionist, purely materialistic view of life ignores new advances in science  In Beyond Evolution, Sy Garte challenges both scientists and people of faith to follow the evidence wherever it leads―and argues powerfully for why that evidence warrants a belief in God.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
What if the comforts of modern life are quietly harming the youngest among us? 
In “Autism and Standard of Living”, Zivota Nikolic takes a bold step outside conventional medical thinking to explore how contemporary living spaces and environmental design may be contributing to the alarming rise in autism diagnoses. Drawing on years of independent research, Nikolic examines how poor ventilation, sealed environments, and rising carbon dioxide levels in homes, hospitals, and schools could be impacting early brain development—especially in infants and toddlers. 
This book doesn’t attempt to replace scientific consensus but instead invites a closer look at what has long been overlooked. Nikolic blends architecture, environmental science, and developmental biology to present a compelling case for rethinking the way we live, sleep, and raise our children. He questions the design of baby cribs, the configuration of HVAC systems, and the very standards by which modern buildings are constructed. 
If you’ve ever wondered why autism rates have surged in recent decades despite advances in medicine, this thought-provoking investigation offers a fresh lens. With clarity, logic, and urgency, “Autism and Standard of Living” challenges readers to see the unseen—and consider practical solutions rooted in simple changes to our surroundings. 
This is not just a book about autism. It is a call to rethink what we call progress.
