In the zero days series is to take pieces of itand elain theundamentals and the platonic ia is that everybody from my mom and dad t congress, um, and peop around the country can undstand and so maybe start the process of coming up with ways for us to defend cyberspace better. Hos wel if look at cyberace the United States rinow, how wouldou debe surityverall . Much as we would deribe, maybe, crime or breakins in a neighborhood . Guest well in the spirit of the explanatory mission we have, you cant really talk about cyberspace in the United States. A computer user in washington, d. C. Or in wichita or San Francisco is effectively working shoulder to shoulder with a computer user in beijing or in moscow. Theres literally no seconds of difference in space and time in cyberspace. So i thought id point that out. As for the security, the reality is that, um, its almost remarkable how vulnerabl comp sysms are. And cyberspace, um, is not what most people think it is. Most people now equate cybe

Quijano Demarco Morgan is about 30 miles south of houston in dickinson, texas, with a situation there. Demarco . Elaine and kris teen, you hae people who are rescuing friends and residents in their personal boats. People who are trying to be good samaritans. This is a sanitation truck here.

Today looks like a nice day relatively seeking but it is tomorrow. Yes, you said relatively because even so it will be well above average day with regard to temperature we are watching another cold front cross through. This one is bringing very chilly canadian air with it and a wind that starts to pick up. While i dont anticipate any wet weather, it is going to really still feel on the cool side but just not as harsh as it will get. Lets look at storm scan three at the moment not a heck of a lot to report here, folks. We did have a lot of rain. Mostly just moving in yesterday. We have low lying cloud techs.
