    A Second Cable Fails at NSF’s Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico | University of Central Florida News | UCF Today
    https://www.ucf.edu/news/a-second-cable-fails-at-nsfs-arecibo-observatory-in-puerto-rico/?amp&utm_source=DamnInteresting&__twitter_impression=true
    A main cable that supports the Arecibo Observatory broke Friday at 7:39 p.m. Puerto Rico time. Unlike the auxiliary cable that failed at the same facility on Aug. 10, this main cable did not slip out of its socket. It broke and fell onto the reflector dish below, causing additional damage to the dish and other nearby cables. Both cables were connected to the same support tower. No one was hurt, and engineers are already working to determine the best way to stabilize the structure.

    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell hasn’t acknowledged that Joe Biden won the election, and he’s calling the Senate back into session to confirm more judges nominated by President Donald Trump. The Kentucky Republican hasn’t commented on the election since Friday, a day before the race was called for Biden, but he’ll resume his efforts to fill judicial vacancies with conservative nominees.

    Trump To Hold Campaign-Style Rallies To Keep Sowing Doubt On Election Defeat With Bogus Fraud Claims
    https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trump-to-hold-campaign-style-rallies-to-keep-sowing-doubt-on-election-defeat-with-bogus-fraud-claims
    President Donald Trump is reportedly has another gambit in the works to magnify his unfounded accusations that the election, which he lost to Democratic challenger Joe Biden last week, was “stolen” from him via election fraud: Going back to holding his beloved rallies. CNN, Axios, and NBC News report that Trump will be holding campaign-style rallies throughout the country in a few weeks as his legal team continues to fight the election results in court with unproven claims that the election had been plagued with voter fraud. White House senior adviser and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner, Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller, and lawyer Rudy Giuliani made the push on the rallies, according to CNN. The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to TPM’s request for comment.

    Pharmaceutical company Pfizer has announced its coronavirus vaccine candidate is more than 90% effective in preventing Covid-19 during a major trial. The firm, which is developing the mRNA-based vaccine with BioNTech, said the results were from a independent interim analysis of the results of its phase three clinical study.

    Company named "><SCRIPT SRC=HTTPS://MJT.XSS.HT> LTD forced to change its name by the Companies House
    https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/nov/06/companies-house-forces-business-name-change-to-prevent-security-risk
    Companies House has forced a company to change its name after it belatedly realised it could pose a security risk. The company now legally known as “THAT COMPANY WHOSE NAME USED TO CONTAIN HTML SCRIPT TAGS LTD” was set up by a British software engineer, who says he did it purely because he thought it would be “a fun playful name” for his consulting business. He now says he didn’t realise that Companies House was actually vulnerable to the extremely simple technique he used, known as “cross-site scripting”, which allows an attacker to run code from one website on another.

    Desperate for cash, Kulaski sold much of her furniture, including the bed her children sleep in when they visit and her grandparents’ desk. In all, she made around $300. Still, Kulaski has fallen behind on her $755 rent and her landlord has moved to evict her. If she has to leave her apartment, she said she’d probably live in her car with her two cats.

    Where is Mike Pence? VP missing in action as Trump administration rejects election loss
    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-election-2020/where-is-mike-pence-twitter-trump-b1700774.html
    Whereas he appeared on the campaign trail with Donald Trump right up to the eve of election day, Mike Pence has kept a low profile in public since the results began filtering in – and even as the Trump administration fought back hard against indications the president was losing. And the day after the race was called for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the vice president’s public schedule appeared to be empty. He has not tweeted since the race was called. At the time of writing, this makes him somewhat unusual among the president’s allies.
