  F.B.I. Identifies Group Behind Pipeline Hack The attack by DarkSide, a relatively new criminal group believed to have roots in Eastern Europe, exposed the vulnerability of key U.S. infrastructure. This is how the Colonial Pipeline became a vital artery for fuel. The White House has declared a state of emergency after a cyber attack forced the shutdown of a vital U.S. pipeline.  Experts said that  gasoline prices are unlikely to be affected  if the pipeline is back to normal in the next few days. But the incident — the worst cyberattack to date on critical U.S. infrastructure — should serve as a wakeup call to companies about the vulnerabilities they face,  says The Associated Press .  【網絡安全】美國最大汽油管道被黑客攻擊 美國最大汽油和柴油管道系統的Colonial Pipeline在受到網絡攻擊後將其系統下線，令美國東部沿海主要城市加油站的成品油供應面臨威脅。Colonial Pipeline已聘請協力廠商網絡安全公司來調查並聯繫執法部門和其他聯邦機構。黑客對關鍵基礎設施的威脅一直在增長，促使白宮制訂計劃來提高公用事業及其供應商的安全性。

    Hunter Biden (Joe Biden兒子) 在中國"投資"被《紐約郵報》等擠牙膏報導內幕。The Swamp That Trump Built 第一天，Facebook、TWITTER等社交網路因"無法外証"而刪文。第二天，周四，真相更清楚點。 這種情形，兩位美國總統的家族，應該是半斤八兩。   The Swamp That Trump Built By Nicholas Confessore, Karen Yourish, Steve Eder, Ben Protess, Maggie Haberman, Grace Ashford, Michael LaForgia, Kenneth P. Vogel, Michael Rothfeld and Larry Buchanan A businessman-president transplanted favor-seeking in Washington to his family’s hotels and resorts — and earned millions as a gatekeeper to his own administration. 汪浩 《紐約郵報》周四再跟進報道拜登兒子亨特的電郵內容，透露亨特曾代表家族與中國華信能源（CEFC）進行了交易，甚至在電郵中形容其中一宗交易「對我和我的家人來說也很感興趣」。其中一封在2017年5月13日寄給亨特的電郵，就詳列了包括亨特在內6名人士在一間沒有指明的企業中、所獲得的薪酬待遇，以及各人在一間新公司所分配的股份。另一封2017年8月由亨特寄出的電郵，就涉及他與華信董事長葉簡明達成的一項交易，兩人將各自擁有新公司的一半股份，預計將每年為亨特提供1,000萬美元以上（7,800萬港元）的收入。亨特寫道：「諮詢費是我們收入來源的一部分，但主席（葉簡明）的提議對我和我的家人而言非常有趣，原因是我們也將成為合資公司的合夥人，（擁有）股權和利潤。」 1977年出生的葉簡明長期保持低調，媒體報道並不多。2014年，中國華信首次進入《財富》雜誌評出的世界500強企業，當時37歲的葉簡明可能是最年輕的世界500強公司掌門人。其後連續四年，華信都進入《財富》雜誌世界500強榜單，2017年7月以437億美元營業收入位列第...
