The sun produces a powerful magnetic field which varies over the course of roughly 11-year-long cycles. At the end of these periods, the polarity of the magnetic field flips, meaning that the north and south poles switch. Scientists refer to the end of this cycle as a solar minimum, which is generally thought to be the period when the sun is least active. The middle of the cycle—the solar maximum—tends to be a period of high activity....

Jake Williams, chief technical officer of cybersecurity firm BreachQuest, said the numbers currently claimed are likely low due to Kaseya customers being managed service providers (MSPs). “Given the relationship between Kaseya and MSPs, it’s not clear how Kaseya would know the number of victims impacted. There is no way the numbers are as low as Kaseya is claiming though,” Williams said. Most of the more than 60 Kaseya customers that were informed via email that they were affected on Sunday are MSPs with multiple customers of their own....

In November 1937, after their successful invasion of Shanghai, the Japanese launched a massive attack on the newly established capital of the Republic of China. When the city fell on December 13, 1937, Japanese soldiers began an orgy of cruelty seldom if ever matched in world history. Tens of thousands of young men were rounded up and herded to the outer areas of the city, where they were mowed down by machine guns, used for bayonet practice, or soaked with gasoline and burned alive....

Here’s the official announcement on Twitter, as well as an early interview on Ajax TV. 

Barcelona B of course compete in Spain’s Segunda B, the equivalent of the third-tier. Looked at that way, it is hard to get excited about such a move. However, this is no ordinary third division side. By virtue of being Barcelona’s farm team, the move affords him the opportunity of training alongside the world’s best players. Barcelona may have recently moved away from their prominent home-grown bias, with most of their recent acquisitions for big money and sourced from without, but this still presents the player with a great opportunity....
