Season 3 of the smash hit FX/Hulu show “The Bear” roared to life just days ago, but Will Poulter (the actor who plays fan-favorite Luca) and 2014 F&W Best New Chef Dave Beran had been prepping for weeks. Poulter — like his co-star Jeremy Allen White — staged with Beran at his Santa Monica restaurant Pasjoli to learn how to accurately portray a professional chef onscreen. The lessons went so well, Beran says he’d hire Poulter as a cook — even despite a messy mishap with a pastry bag. The two dished all about getting kitchen culture right on and offscreen, what it takes to be at the top of your craft, and the pure magic of a great restaurant service.

The Civil Applications Committee (CAC) is working on tracking an asteroid called Apus that will have a close approach to Earth in 2029. The CAC aims to raise awareness and gather remote sensing information about the asteroid, which could potentially cause significant damage if it were to impact the planet or even pass through the geo belt where satellites are located. 🛰️ The Apophis asteroid will have a close approach to Earth in 2029, posing a threat to satellites in the geo belt. 💡 The CAC aims to gather remote sensing information and imagery of the asteroid to enhance space situational awareness. 🚀 NASA is funding the CAC’s work and will be sending a mission to investigate the asteroid. 🌌 The CAC sees this as a unique opportunity for the geospatial community to collaborate and utilize resources to study the asteroid. 💥 The asteroid’s size (about 340m) makes it capable of causing significant damage if it were to impact Earth or pass through the geo belt. 🔭 Different sensors, such as hyperspectral and SAR, are being considered for analyzing the asteroid’s composition and behavior.

“Worlds are colliding!” is not just another random Seinfeld reference. It is a wake-up call for all practitioners to better understand how the convergence of domains like Cyber and Physical create places for failures at scale. The objective of this training is to demonstrate and guide the attendee through these vulnerabilities and dependencies regardless of their cyber, networking, geospatial and/or GEOINT practitioner level. Single domain threat catalogs are not enough. Multi-domain threat catalogs are required to design and operate systems that are safe, secure and resilient. By creating stakeholder relevant models, previously undocumented attack vectors, hidden dependencies, and inter-domain control gaps can be identified. Further methodologies and test scripts (called “attack packs”) will be shared which were developed to simulate multi-domain attacks, which lead to cascading failures achieving a very specific objective. This is how we Smoke Supply Chains!…
