It’s just a few minutes after noon on a hot summer day as I join the queue of lunch-goers at the amma canteen in Pallavaram town, just outside the state capital, Chennai www.chaturbatetokenhackss.com.
The menu today includes hot sambhar rice (rice cooked with lentils and spices) and curd rice (rice cooked in yogurt with curry leaves). The former is selling for five rupees (seven cents; five pence) a plate while the latter costs just three rupees – a fraction of what the dishes would cost in any other restaurant.
I’m famished so I buy a plate of each and move to one of the tables in the centre of the room to eat.

If you’re after a fine dining experience, this place is not for you.
The heat and the humidity can be a bother and the sambhar rice is a bit too spicy for my north Indian palate.
But my fellow diners, men and women who include poor daily wage labourers, housemaids, college students, and middle-class office workers, are not complaining.
The portions are big and most describe the food as “delicious”.

Lakshmi, who works in the neighbourhood as a housemaid, is a regular at this canteen.
“Earlier, my employers would give me leftovers, but now I come here for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. For less than 20 rupees, I can eat three meals here,” she tells me.
“This food is really good. I like all the dishes. My stomach’s full and I’m happy,” she says, patting her belly.

Breakfast (served from 7am to 10am) – idli (steamed rice cakes) for one rupee or pongal rice (rice cooked with lentils and peppercorn) for five rupees
Lunch (served from 12 noon to 3pm) – sambhar rice (rice cooked with lentils and spices) or lemon rice or curry leaf rice for five rupees each and curd rice (rice cooked in yogurt with curry leaves) for three rupees
Dinner (served from 5pm to 7:30pm) – two rotis with daal (handmade bread with lentil soup) for three rupees
Raju, a construction worker from Punjab, was introduced to the canteen by his co-workers.
“I earn 400 rupees a day. Before these canteens came up, I used to spend at least 150 rupees on food per day. Now I spend only 20 rupees a day,” he says.
The canteens were first started in 2013 in Chennai by Ms Jayalalithaa, who is popularly called amma (mother) – hence the name amma canteen – with the aim to provide subsidised meals to the public.

Today, there are more than 300 such eateries in the state – at least half of them in Chennai alone. They serve simple breakfast, lunch and dinner every day of the week.
“The food is prepared hygienically, it’s very well made and it’s tasty,” says CR Saraswathi, spokeswoman for Ms Jayalalithaa’s All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) party.
“Our chief minister started these canteens to provide good, cheap food to the people. It has also generated employment for thousands of women. The canteens are run by women who cook, clean and serve.”

And the scheme has served Ms Jayalalithaa well too.
The canteens have helped poor and lower middle-class families massively slash their food bills and freed the womenfolk from the daily drudgery of cooking and cleaning. And their gratitude has often translated into votes for Amma.
A year after the scheme was launched, Ms Jayalalithaa’s party won 37 of the 39 seats in the 2014 parliamentary elections.
In April, her party was re-elected in the state assembly polls and analysts say the canteens are among the reasons for her victory.

This is their first visit to an amma canteen and to mark the occasion, they are taking a selfie with their plates of rice.
The photograph, they tell me, will be uploaded on their Facebook accounts.
“This is a great initiative. Where else can poor people eat a full meal for five rupees? We support amma,” says Ms Shweta.
As the popular saying goes, the way to a man’s – and presumably also a woman’s – heart is through the stomach. And Ms Jayalalithaa knows it well racingrivalshackcheat.com.

Orlando alligator: ‘Second’ animal involved in attack
Matt Graves said he was attacked by the second alligator as he tried to reach his son after the child was pulled into the water, public records show www.thesimpsonstappedouthackss.com.
It was reported previously that only one animal was involved in the attack.
Police found the body of Lane Graves from Nebraska in the water two days after he was seized on 14 June.
The records obtained by
the Orlando Sentinel from the Reedy Creek Fire Department describe how Mr Graves tried to extract his son from the jaws of the alligator as he wrestled with it. His wife Melissa screamed for a lifeguard to help.

It is the first time details about the attack from Mr Graves’ perspective have been released.
The records show that the distraught father initially refused to leave the area of the attack – as rescuers searched for his son – despite needing stitches and antibiotics for alligator bites.
While travelling to hospital Mr Graves described “the horror that he experienced” as his son was being dragged into the water and how “another gator attacked him as he fought for his son,” the email records show.
Orange County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Angelo Nieves told the Orlando Sentinel that a witness also saw a second alligator attack Mr Graves.
Immediately after the attack, five alligators were seized and killed in an attempt to find the boy’s remains.
Later the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission announced that it had caught the alligator that had grabbed the boy crossyroadhackss.com.
3 U.S. College Students, Including American Citizen, Among Victims
Three students from two American colleges were among those slaughtered in a brazen terror attack in Dhaka, Bangladesh, early Saturday futurefighthack.com/marvelfuturefighthack/.
The siege at the Holey Artisan Bakery killed 20 foreigners, including a U.S. citizen, after heavily armed militants stormed the upscale eatery in Dhaka’s diplomatic quarter, officials said.
Two of the students attended Emory University in Georgia, and one went to the University of California, Berkeley.
Emory identified its students as Abinta Kabir and Faraaz Hossain.
Kabir, who lived in Miami, was a rising sophomore at Emory’s campus in Oxford, Georgia, the school said. She was in Dhaka visiting family and friends.

Are Chinese Hackers Slowing Down Their Cyber Attacks on the U.S.?
Hackers based in China seem to have slowed some of their attacks on U.S. targets, private cybersecurity researchers and U.S. government officials have recently suggested, hinting at a shift in strategy for the nation as more public and political attention has turned to online threats click here.
But it’s not clear how long that will last, and companies and individuals shouldn’t be quick to let their defenses down, they say.
“Since mid-2014, we have seen a notable decline in China-based groups’ overall intrusion activity against entities in the U.S. and 25 other countries,” cybersecurity firm FireEye said in a report published on June 20.
While prominent actions by the U.S. government, including the indictment of accused hacker members of the Chinese military in
2014, seem to have played a role in tamping down the cyber threat, the FireEye report suggests that China had already begun to tone down some of its activities amid a shift in strategy started by Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Read More: Secret NSA Map Shows China Cyber Attacks on U.S. Targets
“We suspect that this shift in operations reflects the influence of ongoing military reforms, widespread exposure of Chinese cyber operations, and actions taken by the U.S. government,” the firm said.
Those changes — including the consolidation of military cyber resources and increased sensitivity to how China is perceived on the world stage — have led to a “more refined” strategy among the Chinese when it comes to conducting online operations, FireEye reported clashofkingshackss.com.
Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Carlin pointed to the apparent slowdown — at least temporarily — in cyberattacks from China while taking questions at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday.

“It seems like generally people have seen a change in activity,” Carlin said. “There’s a debate as to how long-lasting it may be, but there has been a change.”
FireEye’s new assessment was based on its work with clients in identifying and tracing intrusions by groups based in China. While in early to mid-2013 it saw more than 60 instances in which a client’s network was broken into, by the end of 2015 and the beginning of this year, that number was under 10 active attacks a month dragonmanialegendshackcheat.com.

‘Common Understanding,’ Obama Says
“Although we have continued to see China-based groups compromise corporations’ networks in the U.S., Europe and Japan and target entities in the countries surrounding China through late 2015 and into 2016, our data show an overall decline in compromises that began in earnest in mid-2014,” FireEye said in its report.
That was a year before Chinese President Xi and President Barack Obama met and hashed out an agreement that their governments would not hack companies in the other country to gain a commercial edge.
Last October another cybersecurity firm, CrowdStrike, said that it recorded attacks on at least seven of its client companies from actors it connected to the Chinese government in the three weeks after Xi and Obama announced their deal.
U.S. intelligence officials confirmed to NBC News this week that there has been a drop-off in Chinese attacks against some American targets, crediting it to the agreement between Obama and Xi. But they remain wary about whether it will continue.
Brian Bartholomew, a senior security researcher for cyber firm Kaspersky Lab, said that his company has also noted some decline in attacks against U.S.-based targets by actors thought to be originating in China.
Read More: China Tells U.S. to Stop ‘Groundless’ Hacking Accusations http://www.hillclimbracinghackss.com/
“That being said, we have also seen somewhat of an uptick in attacks against other countries, including Pakistan, India, Russia and many more throughout Europe and Asia,” Bartholomew told NBC
News in an email this week. And while there did appear to have been fewer attacks on American-based companies and non-governmental organizations, “there are still traditional espionage operations occurring against the government and defense contractors.”
The Mountain View, California-based firm Symantec said it too noted some decline in activity from China after October of last year, but said it continued to monitor a “small trickle of continuing activity” that it said could in part be due to hackers needing time to shut down their attacks after the agreement between the U.S. and China.

“Attacks have increased and broadened into other countries beside the U.S., so these groups still very much remain active,” Kaspersky’s Bartholomew said. “Activity has decreased, but it would be foolish for one to assume Chinese-speaking threat actors will no longer target commercial entities in the U.S http://www.psncodegeneratorss.com/.”
American intelligence officials have regularly identified cyber threats originating from China as cause for serious concern.
The nation’s top spy chief, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, told lawmakers earlier this year that malicious online activity was still coming from China, targeting both intelligence and private-sector companies.

“We have seen some reduction, but I don’t think we’re in a position to say at this point whether they’re in strict compliance,” Clapper said in response to a question from lawmakers in February regarding whether China was keeping up its end of the bargain.
“I think the jury’s out,” he said.
American and Chinese diplomats have continued to meet to discuss use of the Internet for espionage in the months since Xi and Obama signed their deal.

Elie Wiesel, Nobel Laureate, Holocaust Survivor and ‘Night’ Author, Dies at 87
Elie Wiesel, the prolific Nobel Peace Prize laureate whose memoir about surviving Nazi concentration camps was one of the most poignant accounts of the Holocaust, has died. He was 87 hungrysharkevolutionhackcheats.com. Wiesel’s son, Elisha Wiesel, told NBC News on Saturday that the author had died, and said the family is observing Shabbat and has requested privacy at the moment. Wiesel was born in 1928 in Romania. At the age of 15 he was deported to Auschwitz with his family, where his mother and sister died. Wiesel and his father were later taken to Buchenwald. His sick and malnourished father died there following a beating from a German soldier. Wiesel chronicled the experience in his acclaimed
1955 autobiography, “Night.” Holocaust activist and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Elie Wiesel, 83, in his office on in New York on Sept. 12, 2012. Bebeto Matthews / AP The atrocities he witnessed fueled Wiesel to combat inhumanity around the world, including in the former Yugoslavia and in Darfur — efforts that in 1986, earned him a Nobel Peace Prize. “We must speak, we must take sides, for neutrality helps the oppressor — never the victim,” he said upon receiving the prize. The prize’s citation referred to him as “a messenger to mankind.” “My father raised his voice to presidents and prime ministers when he felt issues on the world stage demanded action,” Elisha Wiesel said in a statement released later Saturday. “But those who knew him in private life had the pleasure of experiencing a gentle and devout man who was always interested in others, and whose quiet voice moved them to better themselves http://www.falloutshelterhackss.com/.” “I will hear that voice for the rest of my life, and hope and pray that I will continue to earn the unconditional love and trust he always showed me,” Elisha Wiesel said.

He was also a teacher for many of us. He taught us about the horrors of Auschwitz. He taught us about Judaism, about Israel, and about not being silent in the face of injustice.” Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, who a few months ago gave Wiesel the medal of Honorary Citizen of Jerusalem, said of the author: “Instead of giving in to despair, the face of evil and cruelty that at the time was the darkest of humanity, he carried all the way through the message of tolerance and peace for all peoples of the world jurassicworldthegamehackcheats.com/.” Follow Shimon Peres ✔ @PresidentPeres The Jewish people and the world lost a larger than life individual – Holocaust Survivor, Author and Noble Prize Laureate Elie Wiesel. 4:23 AM – 3 Jul 2016 336 336 Retweets 383 383 likes Following the war, Wiesel was sent to a French orphanage, where he was reunited with his older sisters, Beatrice and Hilda.

It has now sold more than 6 million copies, according to Israeli newspaper Haaretz, which first reported Wiesel’s death. Wiesel originally wrote “Night” in French and had it translated into English. The book was standard reading material in schools around the world and enjoyed renewed popularity when Oprah Winfrey chose a new translation of “Night” by Wiesel’s wife, Austrian Holocaust survivor Marion Rose, for her book club in 2006 www.blackops3hackss.com/blackops3hack/. Wiesel and Marion married in Jerusalem in 1969. She also translated his future books, including “Dawn” and “Day,” which completed his trilogy series on the Holocaust.

Over the years, he became a vocal activist, earning him the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom in addition to the Nobel Peace Prize for speaking out against discrimination and racism. Marion Wiesel said in a statement Saturday: “My husband was a fighter. He fought for the memory of the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust, and he fought for Israel. He waged countless battles for innocent victims regardless of ethnicity or creed.” “But what was most meaningful to him was teaching the innumerable students who attended his university classes,” she said. “We are deeply moved by the outpouring of love and support we have already seen in the wake of his passing.” Wiesel became an outspoken advocate of education on the Holocaust when President Jimmy Carter appointed him chairman of the Presidential Commission on the Holocaust in 1978. In that role, he helped create the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.

In 2006, he went to Auschwitz with Winfrey, and in 2009, Wiesel went with President Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel to a trip to the Buchenwald concentration camp. “HE TAUGHT US ABOUT THE HORRORS OF AUSCHWITZ … AND ABOUT NOT BEING SILENT IN THE FACE OF INJUSTICE.” His faith never wavered. At the Holocaust Days of Remembrance Ceremony in April 2009, standing alongside Obama in the Capitol Rotunda, Wiesel said, “I belong to a traumatized generation that felt abandoned by God and betrayed by mankind. And yet, I believe that one must not estrange from God or mankind.” Later in life, he made news for another reason: He was one of the victims of Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme. His foundation, the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity, lost more than $15 million it had invested with Madoff, and he and his wife lost savings. When asked to describe Madoff http://www.starwarsgalaxyofheroeshackcheats.com/, Wiesel told The New York Times, “Psychopath — it’s too nice a word for him.” Obama said that he first came to know Wiesel through his account of the Holocaust, but “I was also honored and deeply humbled to call him a dear friend.” The president recalled visiting Buchenwald with Wiesel, where the author was held as a teenager. “At the end of our visit to Buchenwald, Elie said that after all that he and the other survivors had endured, ‘we had the right to give up on humanity,’” Obama said. “But he said, ‘we rejected that possibility … we said, no, we must continue believing in a future.’” “Tonight, we give thanks that Elie never gave up on humanity and on the progress that is possible when we treat one another with dignity and respect,” Obama said.

A horse sculpture imported to New Zealand contained 35 bricks of high-grade cocaine. New Zealand Police
Authorities in New Zealand said Saturday that contained within the sculpture’s glittery head, which arrived from Mexico in May, were 35 bricks of high-grade cocaine worth nearly $11 million U.S..
Two unidentified men — a 56-year-old U.S. national and a 44-year-old Mexican national —were arrested Friday night at Auckland International

Additional search warrants were being executed in Christchurch, the statement said, and Sunday here, police released surveillance video of a

Detective Sgt. Colin Parmenter said the amount of cocaine seized in a typical year in New Zealand is 250 grams, or about half a pound — a statistic crushed by the sculpture.
“What this find tells us, though, is that there is obviously a demand for it,” Parmenter said, according to the statement. “While it’s possible that this statue may have been sent on to another country … there’s every possibility that the cocaine was destined for the New Zealand market www.kingofthieveshackcheats.com.”

For so many, he was that difference — including at the dedication of the Holocaust Memorial Museum in 1993 when he urged me to stop the ethnic cleansing in Bosnia; at the White House Millennium Lecture Hillary invited him to give; and in all his wonderful books and lectures.” Follow Yad Vashem @yadvashem Yad Vashem mourns the passing of Elie Wiesel-Holocaust survivor, Nobel laureate, renowned author http://goo.gl/6VPNO8 3:02 AM – 3 Jul 2016 999 999 Retweets 614 614 likes Ronald S. Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, said: “Elie Wiesel was more than a revered writer. He was also a teacher for many of us. He taught us about the horrors of Auschwitz. He taught us about Judaism, about Israel, and about not being silent in the face of injustice.” “Elie once remarked: ‘This is what we must do: not to sleep well when people suffer anywhere in the world, not to sleep well when someone is persecuted, not to sleep well when people are hungry all over here or there, not to sleep well when there are people sick and nobody is there to help them, not to sleep well when anyone somewhere needs you.’” “He never slept. And he woke others when he saw injustice. Himself a survivor of the Nazi genocide, he knew what he was talking about when he raised the plight of persecuted people in Rwanda, or the former Yugoslavia, or in other parts of the world boombeachhackss.com.” “We have lost the most articulate witness to history’s greatest crime. Without Elie Wiesel in the world, it is up to every one of us now to stand up to the deniers. With his passing, we will all have to work a little harder because we will no longer have Elie to remind us of what happens when the world is silent and indifferent to evil.

Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant.

Bangladesh Hunts for Hostage-Crisis Clues as Nation Mourns
Security officials were searching Sunday for clues and criminal masterminds who might have set in motion the bloody hostage crisis that left 28 dead — including six attackers and 20 hostages — in the diplomatic zone of the Bangladeshi capital click this site. Police were blocking all access to streets near the Holey Artisan Bakery in Dhaka’s Gulshan, where heavily armed attackers holed up overnight Friday, torturing and killing some of their captives including nine Italians, seven Japanese, three Bangladeshis and one Indian teenager. Many details of the attack remained unclear a day after commandos stormed the restaurant and rescued 13 people. But police released photographs of the bodies of five attackers, along with their first names: Akash, Badhon, Bikash, Don and Ripon. Their families hadn’t heard anything from them in months, according to police. Image: Dhaka Bangladeshi policemen guard a road block where floral arrangements were left by wellwishers Sunday. ROBERTO SCHMIDT / AFP – Getty Images “They are all Bangladeshis. They are from rich families, they have good educational background,” Bangladesh’s Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan said www.monsterlegendshacktools.com. He identified them as being part of the banned domestic group Jumatul Mujahedeen Bangladesh, or JMB. He and once again refuted the possibility that ISIS could have been behind the attack despite the group claiming responsibility on Saturday and releasing horrifying photographs of what unfolded overnight Friday. The government insists the extremist Sunni Muslim group
has no presence in the country, and in the past has suggested that any claims of responsibility for violence waged in the South Asian country are simply opportunistic attempts at grabbing global attention.

backing domestic militants in waging a bloody crime spree that, until this weekend, has been mostly carried out by young machete-wielding men targeting individuals they say are traitors to extremist Islam. Victims have included atheist bloggers, gay rights activists, foreign aid workers and religious minorities. “Anyone who believes in religion cannot do such an act,” Hasina said Saturday. “They do not have any religion, their only religion is terrorism mobilestrikehackcheats.com.” The attack Friday night was the worst by radical Islamists in the moderate and mostly-Muslim nation of 160 million. Unlike previous attacks, the assailants this time were well-prepared and heavily armed with guns, bombs and sharp objects that police later said were used to torture some of the 35 hostages trapped inside. On Sunday morning, the first of two days of national mourning for the victims, investigators from both Bangladesh and Japan visited the restaurant to collect evidence. Western embassies issued travel warnings to their citizens, advising those who are now in the country to be vigilant and stay away from places frequented by foreigners in the diplomatic zone. The U.S. Embassy also urged its citizens and personnel to avoid traveling on foot, motorcycle, bicycle, rickshaws or other uncovered vehicles where attackers might be able to reach them simcitybuilditcheatshack.com/.
Russia’s Latest Nuclear-Powered Icebreaker Extends Arctic Dominance
The Cold War may be long over, but there’s still the Arctic chill wwesupercardhackcheat.com. Russia floated its largest and most powerful nuclear-powered icebreaker last month, upping the ante in what is literally the coldest global gold rush. The ice-smashing ship was Russia’s sixth reactor-driven polar vessel. The United States doesn’t have a single one. Moscow’s dominance of the northern seas — courtesy of vast investments — has America and the West worried. Here’s why. Arktika nuclear-powered icebreaker launched in St Petersburg The Arktika, a nuclear-powered icebreaker, is launched in the Russian city of St. Petersburg on June 16. Ruslan Shamukov / TASS via Getty Images What do we know about Russia’s
icebreakers? Moscow is the most active player in the race for polar dominance — despite the current economic crisis debilitating its fortunes at home. Of Russia’s 39 icebreakers, six are powered by nuclear reactors www.killshotbravohackcheats.com. The newest vessel — the Arktika — was floated on June 16 and will make its maiden voyage next year. An unchallenged feat of icebreaker engineering, the vessel is 1 ½ football fields in length and is powered by twin nuclear reactors. Arktika’s job will be to smash through ice in the northern seas to allow other ships safe passage, in addition to delivering supplies to high-latitude research expeditions.

Ruslan Shamukov / TASS Its nuclear reactor means it can stay at sea for months without refueling. “Russia is implementing the [Arctic] plans it made some years ago,” said Alexei Fenenko, an associate professor of global politics at Moscow State University. “It’s a long-term game www.pixelgun3dhackcheat.com.” The Department of Homeland Security said in 2013 that the U.S. needs at least six active icebreakers. It currently has two active icebreakers and one ice-capable research vessel — none of which are nuclear-powered. Adm. Robert Papp, a retired Coast Guard commandant, told NBC News last year that America is “clearly behind in the Arctic.” PlayFight for the Arctic: The U.S. Is ‘Clearly Behind’ Facebook Twitter Google Plus Embed Fight for the Arctic: The U.S. Is ‘Clearly Behind’ 2:20 President Barack Obama has backed plans to build a new vessel worth $1 billion, but the ship would not float until at least 2020. Russia’s closest rival is Canada, which has seven non-nuclear ships. Other nations with such vessels include Finland, Sweden and China walkingwarrobotshack.com. Who needs these smashing ships? The dominance of Moscow is not surprising given the country’s vast, 25,000-mile northern seaboard. “Just look at the length of the Russian Arctic coastline, it’s the biggest in the world,” said Pavel Gudev, at Moscow’s Institute of World History and Economic Relations. “Of course you need more ships.” By comparison, the U.S. has an Arctic coastline of just 1,000 miles. Image: Russia’s Arctic coastline A map showing Russia’s 25,000-mile Arctic coastline. Google (Canada’s coastline is technically the longest in the world — at 62,000 miles — but much of this is made up of its labyrinthine Canadian Arctic Archipelago.) Those disparities haven’t stymied the intense interest in the region from both Washington and Moscow since the outbreak of the Cold War. The closest route for a Russian ballistic missile to reach the States — and vice versa — is over the North Pole. The same goes for warhead-carrying submarines during their regular visits to the Arctic Ocean. “The Arctic area remains part of Russia’s strategic defense plans,” said Fenenko of the Moscow State University. That stands in stark contrast to the current U.S. capabilities — one that has broader implications for American interests.

Why else do nations want Arctic power? Beyond the potential defense implications, the Arctic also could hold vast oil and gas reserves, commercial fishing. It also might have enable a corridor from East Asia to Europe around Russia’s northern coast that is 3,000 miles shorter than any current alternative. Still, most potential riches would only become unlocked when all of the ocean’s ice melts — which by U.S. governmental estimates won’t happen before the middle of this century. Given the uncertain future around any windfall clashoflords2hackcheats.com, the real reason the U.S. is interested in the Arctic is for global-warming research, according to Conley at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

NIKITA GREYDIN / AFP – Getty Images In the meantime, the potential for countries to work together remains high — especially on safety and rescue in the remote region, which is already host to dangers beyond guns and missiles. The U.S. has invited all Arctic nations to participate in a joint rescue exercise this summer dubbed “Arctic Chinook.” And the military focus of the Cold War, while not vanished, is much reduced. “A military conflict in the Arctic is not unfeasible,” Fenenko said, although all of the analysts interviewed for this story said that was unlikely from http://www.slitheriohackcheats.com/.
