This one is kind of lame, although the buildings are cool. IMO they should not include the antennas with the height of the buildings.

Did You Know
The football huddle, where players circle up close together, was created by Paul Hubbard, a deaf quarterback at Gallaudet, a college for the deaf, way back in the 1890s so that he and his teammates could converse without anyone reading their signed conversations from afar.
Did You Know
Peter Pan was created by J.M. Barrie and first appeared as a character in one of his novels, The Little White Bird before gaining more widespread fame as the main character of the stage play, Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up, and the subsequent novelization of the play.
FAT CAT
The following is allegedly a true story:
A man was out on his morning walk one day when he noticed a sign on a gate which read:
“Would the person who had been feeding my cat please stop.”
When he walked by the gate the next day, there was a note attached to the sign which read:
“Sorry. Can’t stop. In a hurry. P.S. I’ve fed the cat.”
Two men are standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up. A blonde asks them what their problem is. They reply that they have been told to measure the height of the flagpole; they have a tape measure but no ladder.
The blonde steps forward, removes a bolt from the base of the pole, lowers it horizontal, takes the measure and tells them “It is 23 feet” and walks away.
One man turns to the other and says “Stupid blonde. We ask for the height and she gives us the length”.

A dog and a cat were having an argument on who is the favorite of humans 🐶🐱💬
The dog says:
“Humans like us more. They even named a tooth (canine) after us. Naming such an important body part after us shows that they like us more.”
The cat smiles and says:
“You’re not really going to win this one you know.”
JOKE:
An Engineer, a Priest, and an MD like to play a fast golf game. They get an early tee time to avoid the crowds. As luck would have it, they were behind a twosome who were extremely slow. They took their time discussing their shots, and putting on the greens took forever. Our trio were fussing and fuming all morning. When they finished and were at the clubhouse bar, they were still talking about the slow twosome in front of them. After a while, the barman told them that the two players were a blind man and his sighted companion.
All three felt bad about what they had said. The MD said he would offer medical check-ups to the two players, including any necessary vision care.
The Priest said he would raise some money in his parish and send the funds to groups helping the visually impaired.
The Engineer said, “Eh! Couldn’t they have played at night?”
JOKE:
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though a whale is a very large mammal, its throat is very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
The teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human, it was impossible.
The little girl said, “When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah.”
The teacher asked, “What if Jonah went to hell?”
The little girl replied, “Then you ask him!”
I pulled into the crowded parking lot at the local shopping centre and rolled down the car windows to make sure my Labrador Retriever Pup had fresh air.
She was stretched full-out on the back seat and I wanted to impress upon her that she must remain there.
I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying emphatically,
“Now you stay. Do you hear me?” “Stay! Stay!”
The driver of a nearby car, a pretty young blonde, gave me a strange look and said,
“Why don’t you just put the handbrake on?”
JOKE:
A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him. The waitress asks them for their orders. The man says, “A hamburger, fries and a coke,” and turns to the ostrich, “What’s yours?”
“I’ll have the same.” says the ostrich.
A short time later the waitress returns with the order. “That will be $9.40 please.”
The man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact change for payment.
The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, “A hamburger, fries and a coke please.”
The ostrich says, “I’ll have the same.”
Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.
This becomes routine until the two enter again.
“The usual?” asks the waitress.
“No, this is friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato and a salad.” says the man.
“Same,” says the ostrich.
Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, “That will be $32.62.”
Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places it on the table.
The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity any longer. “Excuse me, Sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change in your pocket every time?”
“Well,” says the man, “several years ago I was cleaning the attic and found an old lamp. When I rubbed it, a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money would always be there.”
“That’s brilliant!” says the waitress. “Most people would ask for a million dollars or something, but you’ll always be as rich as you want for as long as you live!”
“That’s right. Whether it’s a liter of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always there.” says the man.
The waitress asks, “What’s with the ostrich?”
The man sighs, pauses and answers, “My second wish was for a tall chick with a big ass and long legs who agrees with everything I say.”
Laughing out loud over here. 🤣
An old cowboy walks into a barbershop for a shave and a haircut.
He tells the barber he can’t get all his whiskers off because his cheeks are wrinkled from age.
The barber gets a little wooden ball from a cup on the shelf and tells the old cowboy to put it inside his cheek to spread out the skin.
When he’s finished, the old cowboy tells the barber that was the cleanest shave he’d had in years, but he wanted to know what would have happened if he had accidentally swallowed that little ball.
The barber replied,
“Just bring it back in a couple of days like everyone else does!”An old cowboy walks into a barbershop for a shave and a haircut.

The emergency room at the local hospital was at capacity. All the patients were required to wear a mask to help protect them from the recent out break of covid.To help speed the process a long the doctor on call had the nurse go around and prioritize the list of people waiting to see the doctor by the severity of their ailments. When the attractive nurse came to an older gentleman she asked him why he was there .the old guy said are my testicles black ,? The nurse said you better wait and have the doctor look. The old guy said NO are my testicles black? She said ok let me have a look and she reached up under the gown he was wearing and rolled his testicles around with her hand and then lifted his gown and took a good look . Lowering the gown back down she said they look ok to me. In which the old guy moved his mask he was wearing and said well that’s reassuring but are my test results back.
Funny
ahahah!! Loved it.
An Israeli soldier who just enlisted asked the Commanding Officer for a 3-day pass.
The CO says:
– Are you crazy? You just join the Israeli army, and you already want a 3-day pass? You must do something spectacular for that recognition!
So the soldier comes back a day later in an Arab tank!
The CO was so impressed, he asked – How did you do it?
–Well, I jumped in a tank and went toward the border with the Arabs.
I approached the border and saw an Arab tank.
I put my white flag up. The Arab tank put his white flag up.
I said to the Arab soldier, “Do you want to get a three-day pass?”
So we exchanged tanks!
When people wonder why whole races hate the Jews consider it was Israel that invented Pegasus and sold it to any country that had the money to buy it.
Exploit used to inject Pegasus spyware fixed with iOS 16.6.1
As reported by TechCrunch, Citizen Lab – a group that investigates government malware – has found a zero-click exploit on iOS that allows attackers to target victims with NSO Group’s Pegasus spyware. “The exploit chain was capable of compromising iPhones running the latest version of iOS (16.6) without any interaction from the victim,” Citizen Lab wrote in a blog post.
Upon uncovering this vulnerability, Citizen Lab promptly reported it to Apple, which subsequently released a patch to address the issue with iOS 16.6.1. Apple attributed findings to Citizen Lab for bringing the matter to their attention.
“This latest find shows once again that civil society is targeted by highly sophisticated exploits and mercenary spyware,” Citizen Lab explains.
For those unfamiliar, Pegasus was developed with governments and law enforcement agencies in mind. The NSO Group doesn’t sell the spyware to regular users. Still, most of the countries that have purchased Pegasus are known to violate human rights, which puts people like journalists and political opponents in danger.
Back in November 2021, Apple sued NSO Group for creating and distributing the spyware.
Update your devices right now
iOS 16.6.1 is now available for iPhone and iPad users. To update your device, go to Settings > General > Software Update. Because of these important security fixes, we recommend updating your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch devices to the latest versions of their operating systems as soon as possible.

Q]3, Why are you sending those messages through earth’s atmosphere? Earth has an abundance of iron. Use it. Sound travels 15 times faster through iron as it does through earth’s gasses
You no longer need to use that section of the Golden Gate Park as sanctuary. We have been using he northernmost national park in the U.S. National Park system. It is the Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, which is located entirely within the Arctic Circle. This extremely remote park—which has no roads or developed infrastructure—is the least visited national park in the U.S. and one of the least visited areas in the entire U.S. National Park System. We have been using it for almost 12 years and have never had a human come close to discovering us.
What proof do you have that the immortal is from a planet that orbits UY Sculti? Just because your trip with the immortal suggest an ionization connection to the area and the immortal, doesn’t mean he was born on one of those planets. We can attest that the immortal spent 180 plus million years in that area. No none instruments have been able to record his age so that could be just a blip on his time in a place.
I was on that transport vehicle. The immortal did ping a cross ionization address. The worlds in Uy S’s orbit are very hostile and hence that part of the Milky Way has not been explored as it needs to be. Perhaps the combined armadas of ˇÓ´ ´Â∏´‰O‰ and ÓˆÍ ˝®åç´ will prove capable. However, the co-reponse hail from that area’s defense suggests that it not only recognized the immortal’s signature but would be amenable to a ship carrying such ions entering its solar system.
No attempt was made because the immortal was expecting the trip out to be a short one. My assignment was to befriend and observe. My belief is if It is not a being as we accept within our scientific knowledge, It may consider us as primitive as we consider lesser beings that we encounter in the Known Universe. At times It seems childlike in its amusement and at others it utters musings beyond our collective scientific awareness. It told us that it remembers “surfing” the area some hundreds of million years ago. Our historical maps show blips along the trail he pointed out during that “surfing.”
One is just stunned by the lineal time It has lived. I am in 1,900 lineal period of my species 43,000 year span, but 21,000 of that has to be done under suspended animation. Comparatively my time would be reduces to nanoseconds in the immortal’s lifespan. I agree with you a creature that has not been born and cannot die in our most advanced scientific evaluations should not be experimented upon and most certainly not goaded into retaliating in anger. It does not seem to have any means of self defense, perhaps because it doesn’t need any, but why test it?
We need to speed up our examination and tests on the immortal before the humans discover how to improve their brain functions from examining the results of their scans of its brain.
Already they know that the immortal’s brainstem, diencephalon, cerebellum and cerebrum are more efficient than in any humans. They work together to give it abilities that some humans exhibit under different forms of autism. The difference is it can use its heightened skills in co-ordination with the other parts of its brain so as to suffer no impairments that human autism brings with it.
They can not prove it yet, but they suspect that ESP, Kinetic energy, and Telepathy are but a few skills that its combined use of those areas of the brain gives it.
Soon they may come to fear it. And you know what humans do to things they fear. If the humans learn that the immortal can use its brain to give it total control of its environment, they may panic.
For now they have told it that they have extended their research until March. They will undoubtedly extend that because they want to use what they find to gain a military advantage over other countries on the planet.
The military advantages of learning how to open the areas of the brain to give a human the ability to read others’ minds and to communicate telepathically is their chief concern presently. We need to intercede before they discover its ability to use Kinetic energy to manipulate it’s environment. We are aware that no MotherShip is willing to accept it aboard as that same Kinetic energy could destroy a MotherShip and anything around it for an unknown distance, but the sacrifice must be made.
The competition among MotherShips to be the first to access those skills has caused a large collection among us to agree to destroy the Immortal. So far that has been forbidden for fear that if we are not successful, it could retaliate. I suggest we re-examine this idea with an agreement that we do it at a distance that would prevent its return to this area of the Known Universe, if we fail.
Yes, there are many of us who argue that the Immortal is harmless unless provoked. But our history is rife with unaccountable disasters that have caused the elimination of entire solar systems and even galaxies. The only common thread is the recordation of the ionization trail of this Immortal. It could be responsible for trillions of deaths among the Known Universe.
We now have access to it with the knowledge that it exists among us. I doubt that those other destroyed areas were aware of its presence before they were destroyed. So, what do we do about it?
Why be concerned that the humans will destroy their planet, when it is the galaxy itself that could be in danger? We need to examine how to destroy that which seems to be incapable of destruction.
Let us make this plain. Any violation of ˇÓ´ ´Â∏´‰’s edict to cease and desist attempting any harmful action towards the Immortal will be met with DEATH. That applies to the actions of individuals from a mothership and the mothership itself whether or not it is present within ˇÓ´ ´∏´‰O‰’s or ÓˆÍ ˝‰ÅÇ´’s domains.
The earthlings have two expressions that govern this situation: 1. Let sleeping Lions lie; 2. Don’t poke the Bear.
Those who claim to be experts in human psychology should understand the meaning. Let there be no misunderstanding, if we think that testing of, or monitoring the Immortal violates those two earth expressions, our response will be swift and merciless.
We agree. Also not understanding the Immortal’s aging process makes it impossible to judge its state of maturity on a linear or oval scale. Presently we are reacting to its assimilation in earth’s present day environment.
Should it decide to “die” not merely as the earthing it is presently, but as an earthling in a coma, that would mean it has left the Earth for parts of the Universe we may or may not have access to.
We have to be, and insure that earthlings are very careful not to spook it. Frankly, it is more valuable to us than the TWO. Yes, we dare not disturb the TWO in a way that may piss off the GODS, but to lose the knowledge the Immortal can provide us would be disaster beyond the imagination.
We understand there will be confrontation and competition for any knowledge that can be gained, but we are at least tens of billions of years behind the knowledge that it can provide us. Whatever is learned will eventually benefit all of us.
The ransomware group, ALPHV also known as BlackCat, is reportedly behind the cyber attack that shut down MGM Grand casinos on Monday, according to a report by malware archive vx-underground. The archive claims ALPHV was able to social-engineer their way into the company’s systems in 10 minutes, effectively shutting down MGM Resorts International properties across the U.S.
The ransomware group allegedly took hold of MGM’s computer systems in three simple steps, according to vx-underground. “All ALPHV ransomware group did to compromise MGM Resorts was hop on LinkedIn, find an employee, then call the Help Desk,” the organization wrote in a Twitter post. “A company valued at $33,900,000,000 was defeated by a 10-minute conversation,” it added.
Vx-underground suggested that MGM Grand has not met the ransomware gang’s demands, writing: “In our opinion, MGM will not pay.”
MGM Grand said in a Twitter post on Monday that it had taken immediate steps to secure its systems after receiving outage reports. An investigation is still underway and the extent of the attack remains unknown but an MGM spokesperson told AP News that it not only affected Las Vegas reservation systems and casino floors but also included locations in Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio.
The FBI is “aware of the incident,” the bureau said in a statement to the outlet, adding that the event is “still ongoing.” MGM Resorts issued a statement on Monday night saying its dining, entertainment, and gaming are operational and guests will be able to access their hotel rooms following reports that hotel key cards had stopped working.
The Jews are at it again:
Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox and Apple’s Safari browser have all been impacted by a single zero-day vulnerability, it has emerged. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2023-4863, is caused by a heap buffer overflow in the WebP code library. Once exploited it can lead to system crashes and arbitrary code execution, where hackers can gain control over an infected device.
CVE-2023-4863 was first identified by researchers at The Citizen Lab, a research arm of the University of Toronto. The institution subsequently informed Google and Apple of the vulnerability’s existence. Both companies have now released patches. They were joined by Mozilla, which released its own advisory on CVE-2023-4863 yesterday and updates for several versions of its Firefox browser and Thunderbird email client, and Microsoft.
“Microsoft has a fix for CVE-2023-4863 to Microsoft Edge Stable and Extended Stable Channel (Version 116.0.1938.81), which has been reported by the Chromium team as having an exploit in the wild,” Microsoft wrote in its Edge release notes.
The Citizen Lab also discovered that the Apple vulnerability is being abused by the NSO Group, a controversial commercial spyware company based in Israel, to upload its Pegasus spyware onto iPhones. The research organisation revealed that the vulnerabilities were actively abused as part of a zero-click iMessage exploit chain named BLASTPASS, used to deploy NSO Group’s Pegasus software onto fully patched iPhones running iOS (16.6).
How dangerous is this flaw?
The effects of CVE-2023-4863 may spread even further, explains Chris Hauk, consumer privacy advocate at Pixel Privacy. “Since many browsers, including Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi are built on the Chromium platform, the same platform that Chrome is based on, this could affect their users as well. The same risk is also applicable for Firefox browser clones.”
Such a widespread exploit in ubiquitously used software is dangerous, widening the attack surface for most organisations. “As the flaws allow attackers to remotely run commands on targeted computers, this could lead to organisations experiencing data breaches or having their systems held for ransom,” says Hauk.
Buffer overflow vulnerabilities are highly dangerous, adds Brad Freedman, director of technology at security company SenseOn. “They can allow attackers to execute malicious code on computers by just having them visit a website they control,” he explains.
Patching will mitigate the risk, but users must act quickly as hackers will already be at work, Freedman explains. “Attackers will be working over the coming days and weeks to make the exploit more reliable meaning remote code execution will be more likely,” he says. “Modern web browsers are exceptionally good at pushing out security updates rapidly and applying them as quickly as practicable, so users will shortly be protected.”
Did You Know
In 2015, on the 100th anniversary of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, ripples in the fabric of spacetime—called gravitational waves—were detected by both of the twin Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors, one located in Livingston, LA and the other in Hanford, WA.
Your failure to implore the changed way we use to enter human vessels in low space orbits has compromised our ability to enter the earth’s population undetected. The Americans have discovered your presence aboard the Varda Space craft and are preventing it from landing in American controlled environments. Clean it up immediately or we will.
The 61/*` has finally been given the ok to enter the Mars to Earth quadrant. To you new comers these are the idiots that back in the 70’s taught their people to fly earth fighter jets by tricking the pilots into ejecting or simply ejecting them, themselves. Then they put their people in those jets and allowed them to fly around until they mastered the crafts. Afterwards they practicing landing them by landing the jets in various fields. Only the USA figured out that their jets were being flown by aliens. When a US pilot ejected from his jet in 1970 and it “miraculously made a perfect landing by itself in a corn field. They suspected that the “Cornfield Bomber” had an alien at the controls. They subsequently placed heat seeking devices in all their jets to allow them to observe the aliens.
The 61/* didn’t discover that they were being observed until parts of their vocabulary was discovered crossing earth communication channels. The US military kept their discovery secret from everyone, but our monitoring their communication channels saved us from losing key technology at the time.
As punishment for their sloppy behavior, the 61/*` were banned from this spree forever. But they have since gotten Henrietta Leavitt as their Number II. She had been plucked from the earth after she “died.” Although the males on earth didn’t give her credit for it, she was the earthling who discovered a way to measure the distance between the stars. It was one of the most important discoveries in the history of earth astronomy. Even today earth scientists use Leavitt’s ruler to measure the Known Universe.
She commands a great deal of respect among many alien worlds. Hence her presence aboard the 61/*`and request to return to her world of origin could not be refused.
We want to meet this earth woman, so of course we agree with the honoring of her request. However, we suggest that any actions taken without her command decision since she is but Number II, either be rerouted through her, be checked for idiocy before being implemented.
