EHRMAN: The earliest Christian churches were not organized according to a hierarchical structure, such as we think of today, where there might be a pope, for example, in the Catholic Church, or there be bishops over churches, or priests, or -- or even pastors over churches.
NEESON (voice-over): As Christian communities took hold around the Mediterranean, women were critical in spreading and nurturing the new faith. But now, at the beginning of the second century, a hierarchy develops. And its face is male. EHRMAN: Eventually, Christianity came to oppress women and to silence women. And, so, throughout history, of course, Christianity has been known as a male religion, in that only the leader -- only the men can be leaders of the churches. Only men can be the priests or the pastors or the pope.
Christianity, attracting millions of followers, growing in its influence, extending its reach, had to be wiped out.
O'COLLINS: She was a very noble lady and she led the building program in the Holy Land to have the Church of the Holy Sepulchre built, where Jesus was buried and rose from the dead, and, also, a church built to honor the giving of the Our Father, the Lord's Prayer.
She had a building program there, that she had the money and his support.
GRIFFITH-JONES: The earliest communities were already giving Jesus the worship that could only be given to God. This is happening within 30 years of Jesus' death. But to find a philosophical language in which to say it, in which to formulate it, that took 300 years.
EHRMAN: The Council of Nicea was not called in order to decide whether Jesus was divine. It was called in order to decide in what way is Jesus divine. Is Jesus a secondary deity, a subordinate deity or, in fact, is he equal with God the Father. And the side that won out was the side that declared that Jesus was equal with God the Father, that he had always been God.

Popular boy band One Direction recently released their music video for “Midnight Memories”. Do you hear that? That is the sound of every teen girl going crazy all at the same time. The music video already has over 20 million views on YouTube, and that number is expected to climb.
So why is the video making headlines? There is some controversy involved in the video that have sent some over the edge. Meanwhile the majority of us couldn’t care less.
The Midnight Memories video starts with the boys handing out at a party that’s dead…you know, how we all end up as teens on a Friday night. Suddenly however, the DJ puts on Midnight Memories, and the party then begins. This is obviously how things work in real life…I mean we’ve seen it happen in so many videos. This obviously means it can happen in real life. Although I tried it once and nothing changed. A camera was not present, that must have been the problem.
I assume it is not a good thing to make fun of another person’s performance or video when clearly it can be done with your own, but I do digress.
In any case, the video begins harmlessly. However the entire video basically goes over what happened at midnight, and the memories made from this. Wow, it’s like they should have named the song something similar, right?
According to the people who keep useless stats, the boys from One Direction broke the law at least 7-9 times in their music video. Obviously when you make a music video, you need to abide by the laws darn it!
The issue with all of this is, why the heck are we caring about laws being broken in a music video?
How many music videos have broken laws? Heck, you can see drug and alcohol use out the wazoo for several of them. And we’re suddenly going to push buttons over a boy band breaking London laws for a video aptly named “Midnight Memories”?
Maybe it’s my care meter that is inactive, I’m not so sure.
Most negative responses are coming from parent rights groups or random bloggers online who have nothing better to do with their time. Obviously when looking at music videos, Midnight Memories is far from scandalous in comparison to others. However, you will always find people who like to put down something just to put it down. Oh well, at least the One Direction fans liked it. Really, that was the goal anyway. I’m sure a new album release potentially will make the world scream more than this did however.
It's shared and it's on-demand, but the cloud comes with a number of threats that the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) outlined Monday with the release of its "Notorious Nine" for 2013.
The top three threats this year are data breaches, data loss and account hijacking. In 2010, the top three were abuse of cloud services, insecure interfaces and APIs, and malicious insiders. Those three are still on the list but have fallen (7, 4, 6, respectively) in 2013.
At its annual Summit at the RSA Conference, CSA released the list compiled by its Top Threats Working Group, which seeks to aid companies with their risk-management decisions.
The CSA Top Threats Working Group, which conducted a cloud threats survey with a grop of industry experts, is led by Rafal Los, senior security strategist for HP Software, Dave Shackleford, founder and principal consultant at Voodoo Security, and Bryan Sullivan, senior security program manager at Microsoft.
We all know data breaches like an annoying old acquaintance, but cloud computing brings with it new paths to aggravation. Here's one that's not so nice to contemplate. A poorly designed multitenant cloud service database allows an attacker not only entrance into one account, but to every other account associated with the service.
This is epic hack story where all your data is either stolen or wiped from your devices. Ouch. An accidental deletion or act of God (think Hurricane Sandy) could lead to permanent data loss unless the provider has backup (don't assume they do or be sure to ask just how they do it). Also, if an enterprise encrypts data before uploading it to the cloud, they better protect the encryption keys or the data is as good as gone.
Enterprises know the drill, hackers social engineer credentials out of innocent end-users with phishing, fraud or by exploiting software vulnerabilities. The credentials typically offer access not to one but to many accounts because end-users re-use those passwords on multiple sites. For providers, the cloud adds a twist if stolen credentials can be used to eavesdrop, manipulate data, return bogus information, or redirect users of the service to fraudulent sites. Not only can attackers pull those tricks, the can use your reputation as another tool for social engineering user behavior.
APIs allow any number of interactions in the cloud - provisioning, management and monitoring to name a few - and they can be a weak link in overall security. APIs are controlled via policy, and developers must take care to design in quality and security that can't be circumvented. And the problem gets more complex as APIs are layered across domains.
Knocking out a cloud service is one method of attack that robs users of access to their resources and data, and introduces a latency that can mean death to online services. Other forms of attack, such as the asymmetric application-level DoS attacks can exploit weaknesses in web servers, databases and other cloud resources to target and take down a specific application without gobbling up a lot of resources.
The inside job is a reality, the risk is something that every organization must weigh. It's different across the board, but when it hits , it hurts. Wtih IaaS, PaaS and SaaS, the insiders in the cloud come along with the providers you hire, but you have little idea who they are and what axes they have to grind. CSA says systems that depend solely on the cloud service provider for security are at the greatest risk.
Cloud services democratize computing power, it is available to anyone, even those who seek resources for cracking your encryption, launching a denial of service attack (see No 5), serving server malware or distributing pirated software.
The benefits of the cloud can be sweet music to some organizations - cost reductions, efficiencies, better security - but the risks are there for those who don't do enough to assess the risks. Not understanding cloud service environments; application or services pushed to the cloud; operational responsibilities such as incident response, encryption, security monitoring can lead to creating unknown levels of risk in ways not previously considered behind corporate walls.
All delivery models show these characteristics brought on by sharing infrastructure, platforms and applications. A defensive in-depth strategy is recommended by CSA and should include compute, storage, network, application and user security enforcement along with monitoring for IaaS, PaaS or SaaS. One fault can be felt across a service provider's cloud.
The entire report is available from CSA and includes full explanations and links to information on controls and other details on methods to combat these nine gotchas for 2013.
Do you have a No. 10 to round out the list? What is another top threat of cloud computing?

1. “I never take a loss”. Losses are an inevitable part of trading. Successful traders know that sooner or later a runaway loss would wipe out their account, even if hanging on for a recovery might pay off in the short term. In Forex trading, everyone loses sometimes – it’s the ability to win more than you lose that makes you a successful trader.
2. “Money management is not important”. Deciding how much you risk on each trade is just as vital to long-term success as good trade entries and exits.
3. “Averaging down is a good entry strategy”. Why would you want more of something that is going against you? Successful traders starting strong is a critical sign of a successful trade. Adding to a trade at a worse price is a self-indulgent psychological defense mechanism that professionals cannot afford (and don’t use often, if ever).
4. “I can predict short-term movements from a chart with 90% accuracy”. This is simply impossible, and even the most talented technical traders claim maximum success rates below 70%. Very few traders do better than 55% even when picking their battles extremely carefully.
5. “I have a strategy that is profitable in all market conditions”. There are two ways to make money trading. The first is to use a defined strategy that makes some money in most market conditions or lots of money in rarer market conditions. The second is to use your own discretion and judgement of the market. A magic formula that makes money every day simply does not exist, with the possible exception of high-frequency trading, which is not accessible to retail traders.
6. “You should be in the market every day”. There are times of crisis when the market is so wild and unpredictable that almost any kind of trading becomes dangerous. Breaks from the market can also refresh the mind and relax the body.
8. “I bet the farm on this trade.” Jesse Livermore is widely considered to be the greatest trader of all time, and he frequently bet his metaphorical farm. Consider the facts that he went broke several times during his career, most notably at the end of it, and died at his own hand. Those very few traders who retire rich after betting the farm are not successful, just very lucky.
9. “I learned everything there is to know about trading”. This is not just arrogance, but stagnation. Even if you already know what you need to know to be good, isn’t there always something out there that can simulate your mind to be great, and help keep it sharp?
10. “I couldn’t do it without my fantastic trading platform”. A nice platform with bells and whistles is just that – a nice-to-have. As long as it is fast, visible, executes, and doesn’t crash, then it is all you need. A trading platform with all the bells and whistles, autotraders and advanced charts, news feeds and apps won’t turn a loser into a winner by itself.
11. “I am entirely self-taught”. Would you trust a surgeon that said he taught himself everything he knows? Of course not…because everyone who is skilled has to learn their skills from somewhere, whether it’s another professional, a course or even just a few books. There is no such thing as a trader who just practiced without direction until he made perfect. He’d be sure to suffer devastating losses in the process, and unless he’s already independently wealthy, he wouldn’t be able to afford this lesson. There’s no shame in learning from a professional – in fact, continued learning is the sign of a smart trader. The smartest of them all continue learning, even after they’ve found their successful strategy. The market is evolving constantly, and a successful trader knows that his trades should be too.
I always find the arrogant ones seem to be constantly scrambling for trades and aren't as successful as they seem.
This article is 100% accurate wow!

Meet The Mafia: "Bills Elvis"
All week long we're sharing bills super-fan stories in our meet the mafia series. We're building to Sunday's home opener. Today, we spotlight the King.
Just when I thought I’d heard the last of Sofia Vergara’s frozen embryos, here’s a new bit of information in this ongoing headache.
According to TMZ, Vergara’s ex-husband Nick Loeb is still fighting this deeply awful fight over whether he can have her embryos gestated without her consent. Vergara filed a motion asking her ex to prove that he lives in Louisiana—a state that recognizes embryos as human beings, and where the suit is filed—and it seems that he can’t! The documents Vergara seeks to prove that her ex lives where he says he lives are fairly simple to procure, if you’re not a dirtbag who’s been dragging out this harassing charade for over two years: grocery store receipts, utility bills, or really anything you could provide to the DMV to prove that you are who you say you are when you need to renew your license but can’t find your Social Security card or your birth certificate.
The trouble is Loeb has not provided any of this documentation. He has not demonstrated that he lives in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, and is registered to vote, and has a place to stay there, as his lawyers have asserted. He has set up a trust fund for the embryos, however, and is continuing this fight.
Well, well, well, well, WELL, would you take a look at who has made their relationship with a man Instagram official!!!!
It’s Bethenny Frankel! That’s Paul Bernon! He’s the man that reportedly saved her life after she had a nearly fatal allergic reaction to fish!!! They spent their Christmas in the Dominican Republic! Look how happy. Isn’t that nice?
The No. 4 University of Central Missouri Mules led the entire game, but Pittsburg State stayed right with them as they pulled out a 72-61 win in their first game back at the Multipurpose Building in two weeks.
Before the contest, head coach Kim Anderson honored Pittsburg State head coach Gene Iba in his last game in Warrensburg as he will retire at year’s end. Iba gave Anderson his first full-time coaching job at Baylor, where they coached together for six years.
Central Missouri (19-1, 12-1 MIAA) jumped out to an early 12-2 lead in the game, thanks to nine points from the three Mule seniors, but PSU (7-13, 1-12 MIAA) crept back in a slow-moving first half to make it 14-9 with 7:45 to play. The action didn’t pick up until just less than four minutes remained as a C.J. Masters layup cut it to 18-14. The Mules answered with a 9-3 rally, highlighted by four points from senior guard Alex Moosmann to make it 27-17 with 1:35 left. UCM went into the break with a 29-21 advantage.
Moosmann put up a game-high 12 in the half as the Mules put up an impressive defensive effort, holding the Gorillas to only 25 percent from the floor, and out-rebounded them 20-15. The Mules offense was disrupted as well with nine first-half turnovers though.
Sanijay Watts got going in the second stanza, helping the Mules build a 15-point lead with 12:35 remaining. The Gorillas would get no closer than seven the rest of the way.
UCM shot 59.1 percent in the period, and Watts was the catalyst, scoring 14 and pulling down seven boards. The Mules used another impressive effort on the boards as well, taking an 18-12 advantage.
For the game the Mules hit 52.3 percent, while holding PSU to only 36.1 percent. The Mules turned it over 16 times to the Gorillas’ eight, but the 38-27 rebound edge helped them seal the win.
Watts finished 8-of-10 from the floor for 22 points and a career-high 15 boards. Moosmann tallied 16, and Ryan Harris had 15 in the contest, while Tremaine Luellen had a game-high seven assists.

Mumbai: Some 70% of employees at India’s largest private business conglomerate, the Reliance group, will get a hefty pay raise this month, with salaries going up as much as 57% in some cases.
A formal announcement is expected today, the birthday of the group’s founder chairman, Dhirubhai H. Ambani, who died in 2002. His older son Mukesh Ambani runs the conglomerate, whose flagship is Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL).
While coinciding with the birthday, the hikes, ranging from 22-55%, are primarily aimed at slowing attrition, especially among employees in engineering, manufacturing and marketing.
The increments, ranging between Rs60,000 and Rs4 lakh, depending on the job, will be effective from October.
Cause for cheer: RIL’s Jamnagar refinery. The Reliance group is India’s largest private sector enterprise. The conglomerate wants to slow attrition among employees in engineering, manufacturing and marketing.
Reliance group is India’s largest private sector enterprise with some 40,000 employees.
“This is the part of review of salary that is happening every year," said an RIL executive who didn’t want to be named.
A senior RIL executive, who said he reviewed an internal circular on the wage hikes, said: “An employee, who is in this increment list, leaving before October 2008 will have to pay (back) the same with 12% interest to the company."
Mint could not independently confirm the details of that circular.
According to a study conducted by the Confederation of Indian Industry, India will require about 16-20 million employees in the organized sector over the next 10 years to sustain the current growth rates.
RIL’s rival and state-run oil company, Oil and Natural Gas Corp. Ltd, which has been struggling to compete for employees with the private sector, has also submitted a proposal to hike salaries to check attrition.
“The proposal is before the government. The company will lose more talent to private and international oil companies if the government fails to bring the salary levels to the industry standards," an ONGC official said, requesting anonymity.
RIL is also India’s largest private sector company based on sales, profit and net worth.
The company had recently implemented an employee stock options scheme, which gives the option to eligible employees to purchase the company’s shares.
The options, upon vesting and exercise, could lead to issue of 2,87,28,000 shares, representing about 2% of its equity capital.
The scheme was made available to some 14,000 employees, which makes it one of the largest such programmes among Indian companies.
RIL’s employee costs increased by 22% from Rs978 crore to Rs1,197 crore but the firm’s employee costs, as a percentage of revenue, is only at 1%, according to a company statement in April.
Security researchers have shut down a large-scale malvertising operation that used sophisticated techniques to remain undetected for months and served exploits to millions of computers.
The operation, dubbed AdGholas, has been running since at least October 2015. According to security vendor Proofpoint, the gang behind it managed to distribute malicious advertisements through more than 100 ad exchanges, attracting between 1 million and 5 million page hits per day.
The Proofpoint researchers estimate that 10 to 20 percent of computers that loaded the rogue ads were redirected to servers hosting exploit kits -- web-based attack tools that attempt to silently exploit vulnerabilities in popular applications in order to install malware.
The malvertising code used a series of complex checks to ensure that the visiting computers are not virtual machines used by security researchers or by ad networks themselves to discover malware.
Other checks were used to filter victims based on their geolocation and to serve certain malware programs, typically online banking Trojans, only to users in specific regions. This was likely done on request by the cybercriminal gangs behind those Trojans that paid the AdGholas group to distribute their malware.
This is the first time when the use of steganography has been observed in a malvertising attack, according to Proofpoint. The company's researchers worked with researchers from Trend Micro to deconstruct the attackers' technique and analyze it.
Proofpoint estimates that the AdGholas malvertising campaigns hit up to 1 million computers every day and infected thousands of them with malware. The operation was suspended on July 20 following action from members of the advertising industry.
