'Capturing the Moment' Curator Suzanne Weaver (right), and Assistant Curator Lana Meador (left)Īs stated in a press release on the exhibition by San Antonio Museum of Art: The team pared down the collection to bring about an excellent sampling of some of the world’s most notable photographers, allowing us to see the view through their lenses from the 1920’s through the 1970’s. Curators for the exhibition are Suzanne Weaver, the Museum’s Brown Foundation Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, with support from Assistant Curator Lana Meador. The latest exhibition at the San Antonio Museum of Art, slated to open on February 22, 2019, is entitled, Capturing the Moment: Photographs from the Marie Brenner & Ernest Pomerantz Collection.

In juxtaposition with this time in history, other societal altering events took place that had a lasting ripple effect throughout the generations such as World War I and II, the Great Depression, and the Civil Rights Movement. Some of these advancements brought about exciting technological marvels such as the application of electricity, indoor plumbing, transportation, computers, mass production, the use of steel in high-rise building construction, photography, motion pictures, and the list goes on. The 20th century brought about rapid advancements in societies around the globe at a rate that arguably rivaled any previous millennia in recorded history. ![]()

There is another way to tag many documents at once and that is via Quick Edit feature. But what if you need to tag multiple documents in the classical library? Keep reading! Option 3. It is important to note that this option is not available with classical libraries. The way it works, you select multiple files and choose Document Information Panel, just like above, and you can then apply properties to many documents at once. What if you want to tag multiple documents at once? In modern librarieswe now have a Bulk Edit option. With SharePoint Online you can still get classic experience for a document library, but hopefully, you run a modern document library experience, so your Document Information Panel looks like this (accessible when you click “i” in the upper-right-hand-corner of a document library): In older versions of SharePoint or SharePoint 2013/2016 on premises, you get the classic library experience, so your Document Information Panel looks like this: Your window might look different depending on what version of SharePoint you use.

The group also says that it was able to access the full list of Verkada’s thousands of customers and its private financial information. The list of clients that use Verkada is broad: in addition to companies like Tesla, Cloudflare, Equinox, and Nissan, the group gained access to Verkada cameras inside Halifax Health, a Florida hospital Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut Madison County Jail in Huntsville, Alabama and Wadley Regional Medical Center, a hospital in Texarkana, Texas. In addition, hackers were able to view video from inside women’s health clinics, psychiatric hospitals and the offices of Verkada itself. ![]() Notable companies whose footage were exposed include carmaker Tesla Inc. If you feel like you’ve been, please reach out to us immediately.įeatured image by Kanowa from Shutterstock.Hackers easily accessed surveillance cameras in a shocking data breach.īloomberg reported today that a group of hackers breached a massive trove of security-camera data collected by Silicon Valley startup Verkada Inc., gaining access to live feeds of 150,000 surveillance cameras inside hospitals, companies, police departments, prisons and schools. They’ve previously breached companies such as Microsoft, Intel, Lenovo, Qualcomm, and Motorola. Kottman is a software engineer based out of Switzerland. Kottman claims the hackers stole about 5GB of data but could’ve gotten much more. Kottman accessed Verkada’s system with relative ease. Login credentials for super admin rights to the Verdaka network were contained within the tool. How Did the Hackers Do It?Īccording to Ars Technica, Verdaka exposed an unprotected internal development tool to the entire internet, and the hackers pounced. It’s not clear if the hackers will try to use this footage as a ransom, but it’s certainly possible if they find anything incriminating. They also showed another video of officers questioning a handcuffed man in a police station in Massachusetts. In fact, they released a video of hospital staffers in Florida tackling a man, then pinning him to a bed. ![]() And the hackers had access to all of this. They’re also capable of filtering people by gender, clothes color, and various other attributes. With this technology, Verdaka can identify people across time and space by detecting their faces. The cameras are also fixed with AI that can detect “meaningful events,” which includes “unusual motion.” “All” of the company’s cameras come equipped with “Smart Edge-Based Analytics.” This includes facial recognition technology, person identification, and vehicle analysis. And by gaining access to the cameras, they gained access to more than just footage. Tillie Kottman, one of the alleged hackers, told Vice’s Motherboard, “it’s so abysmal.” They (their chosen pronoun) were referring to the ease with which the hackers were able to access Verkada’s cameras. The Recoginition Technology in Cameras Is Powerful While the attack itself is unsettling, what they revealed in their breach was equally troubling. The hackers, which go by the name of APT-69420 Arson Cats, claim to have accessed live video feed from companies like Tesla and Cloudflare, as well as jails and hospitals. Bloomberg was the first publication to break this story. It includes pubs & breweries, K-12 schools, condominiums (which may be private residences), universities, shopping malls, credit unions, churches, museums, newspaper offices, a Salvation Army center, pharmaceutical companies, the Professional Golfer’s Association, airports, and more. ![]() Verkada’s list of potential victims is staggering. According to Vice News, more than 24,000 organizations may have been breached in this attack. This is just the latest in a run of high-level hacks this month. That’s because Verkada, a security company, was recently hacked–along with their 150,000+ cameras. If you’ve ever had the strange sense that someone was watching you, you might’ve been right, especially if you work at Tesla, Cloudflare, Equinox, or a number of other institutions. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() On full-dress tunics, badges in white or gold lace were worn only on the right arm, but on service dress jackets, badges in worsted embroidery were worn on both arms. The Royal Engineers and Army Ordnance Corps also had an additional rank of second corporal, who wore one chevron. The Royal Artillery had the special rank of bombardier below the corporal, and both he and the acting bombardier wore one chevron. He was allowed to wear a badge consisting of a regimental colour supported by two crossed swords. The infantry rank of colour sergeant was created in 1813 as a reward for senior sergeants with one allowed per company. Lance corporal, at the time, not a rank but an appointment is historically known as chosen man and carrying extra pay for privates holding it, were given a single chevron a few years later, and later in the century, the lance-sergeant appeared, wearing three chevrons. Whereas corporals and sergeants discarded their silk epaulettes by now, sergeant-majors continued to wear their metal epaulettes along with their new chevrons for a while. As today, sergeants wore three chevrons, point downwards, on the upper arm, and corporals wore two, with sergeant-majors and quarter-master-sergeants then having four. The chevrons worn by many non-commissioned officers are based on heraldic devices and their current use originates from 1802. : 357 Beginning from the same year, sergeants wore a pair of silk epaulettes with fringe while sergeant-majors had a pair of gold or silver laced epaulettes with bullion fringe. Sergeants of highland regiments wore their sashes over the left shoulder and tied at the right hip in the same manner as the officers. three (until 1845) in regiments with red or purple facings the sergeant's sash had white stripes or remained plain crimson. From 1768, the sergeant's waist sash had stripes of facing colour – one (until 1825) resp. Whereas it remained vague as to whether the sash was to be worn over the shoulder or around the waist, it was clarified in 1747 that sergeants had to wear their sashes around the waist. They, as well as their countreparts in cavalry and artillery, were also permitted sashes of crimson wool, with a single stripe of facing colour following the clothing regulations of 1727. Infantry sergeants were armed with fusils (grenadier companies, from 1769), halberds or, from 1792 until 1830, with spontoons. ![]() Sergeants had clothing that was of slightly better quality and wore lace trim on their hats and uniforms. 3.1 Foot Guards and Honourable Artillery Companyĭuring the 18th century corporals might indicate their ranks with a knot with cord loops on their right shoulder and, from 1768, an epaulette instead. ![]() ![]() ![]() And, this being a carefully curated selection, everything is child-friendly, which could make this a nice alternative from YouTube for the cautious parents out there.Īs announced on the Creators’ Blog, the Movie Theater is up on the web now, and will be joining the Poptropica mobile app very soon.

As far as "heavily campy" goes, there's nothing artlessly mannered or self-consciously artificial in the story or performances and there's nothing remotely campy in the sense of, say, the 60's "Batman" TV series. But this does not make it bad filmmaking or campy in the least. Aerobics was a fad that goes by different names today and the attire & hairstyles are naturally dated, which make the film an easy target for contempt. The criticisms that "Heavenly Bodies" is "bad cinema" and "heavily campy" are based solely on the fact that the film is from 1984 and involves aerobics. There are guys too, of course, for those who care. And Cynthia is only one of the numerous shapely women featured throughout. Although Jennifer Beals was fine in "Flashdance," Cynthia easily surpasses her. For instance, Cynthia Dale is a great protagonist for this type of flick she's cute, winsome, sprightly and insanely curvaceous. What is required in a aerobics sports flick from 1984? Quality characters, heavenly bodies (sorry), energetic music, kinetic direction, a story that keeps your attention and a film that generally keeps your blood pumping, right? "Heavenly Bodies" scores well in all these areas. The question is: Does it deliver on that level? Yes, in spades. "Heavenly Bodies" never aspired to be "Ghandi" or "Out of Africa." It's a sports film focusing on aerobics for cryin' out loud. Films should be evaluated according to what they aspire to be and, consequently, no genre is beyond redemption or beneath contempt. Some have lambasted "Heavenly Bodies" as the "worst film ever made," "bad cinema" and "heavily campy," but actually none of these criticisms are true. When the building is bought out from under them by a competing fitness center, the main protagonist, Samantha Blair (Cynthia Dale), issues a challenge - a dance-aerobics competition - with the building as the prize. In "Heavenly Bodies" three women decide to start a fitness club that specializes in aerobic with intentions of eventually purchasing the building they lease. "Heavenly bodies" (1984) was Canada's answer to 1983's "Flashdance." Not that it's a rip-off, because the stories are totally different. ![]() ![]() ✔️ Includes support for many languages in the free version ✔️ Guarantees no loss of quality in either video or audio ✔️ Supports downloading of high quality videos ✔️ Provides fast video downloading and conversion The only downside that has been noted thus far is that there is no smartphone app. That said, the options you get with the free version are satisfactory enough, too – you can download playlists of more than 20 videos each absolutely free.Ī nice bonus is the proxy setup that enables you to watch videos blocked in a particular region.
