Using Gmail? Take This Step To Secure Your Account
One surprisingly simple action you can take right now to bolster your Gmail security involves creating a secondary Gmail account and setting up a forwarding rule. What You Can Do to Protect YourselfCreate a Second Gmail AccountSetting up a second Gmail account is quick and easy. Set Up Email ForwardingOnce the new Gmail account is created and secured, go to your original Gmail account settings and set up an email forwarding rule to send a copy of all incoming emails to the second account. If your original account is hacked, and emails are being forwarded to the second account, the hacker would need to compromise both accounts separately. Taking proactive steps—like setting up a second Gmail account and email forwarding—can help mitigate the damage if your primary account is compromised.

Post Publisher Will Lewis Orders All Staff Back to the Office Five Days Per Week
All Post managers are ordered back to their desks five days a week starting in February; everyone else will switch from three days in the office to five days by June. Many have settled on a hybrid schedule, allowing a mix of remote work and in-office days in a given week. Mayor Muriel Bowser has required government employees to work in the office four days per week. It is in this spirit that we will be returning to the office five days a week in the coming months. All other colleagues will be required to return to the office five days a week by June 2, 2025.

Ryan Dunn Injury: Out Friday
Dunn (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Mavericks, Evan Sidery of Forbes.com reports. The 21-year-old was considered doubtful for Friday's contest after suffering an ankle sprain Wednesday against Miami, so it's not a surprise he won't be available in Dallas. Dunn's next chance to take the court will come Sunday versus the Kings, but he could miss more time given the recency of the injury.

249,271 votes: That was the difference.
After spending a day in shock and anger, I decided that looking at facts was a good way to start digging my way out. As of this morning:Kamala Harris lost the presidency by less than 250,000 votes. Trump’s margin in Wisconsin: 29,367 www.nytimes.com/...Trump’s margin in Michigan: 81,597 www.nytimes.com/…Trump’s margin in Pennsylvania: 138, 307 www.nytimes.com/...From an Electoral College POV, the election was far closer than I realized . She could have been the first Democrat in over 100 years to win the presidency while losing the popular vote. That’s a good place to start when we are thinking about what to do better next time.

Shareholder Activism under Donald Trump
[1] While not all activist investors supported Trump, at this year’s Active-Passive Investor Summit, the premier shareholder activist conference in New York City organized by research and advisory service 13D Monitor, many activist investors were excited about the prospect of another presidency of Donald Trump. [2] This article examines the impact of another Trump presidency on shareholder activism in the United States and the beyond. [14]This in turn benefits shareholder activists who need a liquid market for M&A for their business model. [20] However, interestingly, the SEC’s track record under the first Trump administration was more pro-company than pro-activist. [28] And Republican Commissioner Hester Peirce, a possible chair candidate in a Trump administration, appears poised to further restrict shareholder proposals.

New Media Is Leaving the Old Guard Behind
Many factors might have contributed to the election’s outcome , but the media world’s fracturing is hard to ignore. They are competing for attention with mainstream media organizations that have a different mission and who are bound by editorial standards. The TV networks also have digital arms with sizable reach. Jonah Peretti , the co-founder and chief executive of BuzzFeed, said publishers are even more vulnerable to social media than TV is. “People tend to live in their own media echo chambers now more than ever,” Feist said.

Netanyahu wanted Trump back. But the Middle East has changed since 2016.
Jared Kushner, who was responsible for his Middle East policy during Trump’s first term, has so far said he doesn’t plan to play a role in his father-in-law’s administration. “This won’t be a repeat of 2016," said Shmuel Rosner, a senior fellow at the Jerusalem-based Jewish People Policy Institute. Who will win will play a central role in how Trump’s Middle East policy plays out. Still, there are many reasons for Netanyahu to expect a Trump administration to give him more latitude as he fights Hamas and Hezbollah, especially when it comes to keeping weapons steadily flowing. “Pressuring Israel in these ways, like the Biden administration did, are toxic," the former official said.

Trump’s Tax Policy Promises Set For Major Overhaul
Trump’s Tax Policy Promises Set For Major Overhaul Significant reforms on tariffs, tax cuts, and the national debt define Trump's new agendaWith Donald Trump back as president and the Republicans regaining control of Congress, the U.S. tax policy is poised for some significant transformations. His administration is expected to push for elements of his Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) to be extended permanently. One major focus of Trump’s proposed tax plan is on tariffs as a tool for fiscal policy. The risks involved with trumpeting tax cuts could mean they come with potentially severe repercussions for the national debt. Faced with the reality of implementing extensive long-term policies, Trump's fiscal advisors are bracing for intense negotiations.
