As our family and close friends know, after a long period of loving exploration and trial separation, we have decided to divorce and continue our shared lives as friends. We feel incredibly lucky to have found each other and deeply grateful for ever one of the years we have been married to each other. If we had known we would separate after 25 years, we would do it all again. We've had such a great life together as a married couple, and we also see wonderful futures ahead, as parents, friends, partners in ventures and projects, and as individuals pursuing ventures and adventures. Though the labels might be different, we remain a family, and we remain cherished friends. Jeff & MacKenzie" 1064

It’s the foundation of American democracy: voting.Depending on where you are in the U.S., though, your election experience could look very different from that in your neighboring state or even just your neighbor.“It really does depend on where you are in the country,” said Marian Schneider, who heads up Verified Voting, a non-profit, non-partisan group that advocates for better election security.In particular, the group takes a closer look at when it comes to the use of computers in elections.“We use computers in every aspect of election administration in this country,” Schneider said. “We have also historically underfunded our elections and not put the money into them that we need in order to run a computerized operation.”So, what might voters encounter on election day? There are a few possibilities.- A paper ballot, where a voter uses a pen or paper to mark their choices and that paper is then scanned and counted by a computer.- A computerized device, where a voter presses a touchscreen to mark an electronic ballot, which then prints out a paper version that is scanned and counted.- And there are paperless electronic machines, which have a completely computerized ballot, with no paper trail.It is the last one, Schneider said, which raises big concerns because they are the most vulnerable to hacking. “First of all, they make it difficult to discover if something has gone wrong,” she said. “And then, even if you are able to discover it, you can't recover from it.”It can’t be recovered because there is no paper trail to serve as a backup. It’s a type of ballot currently used in all elections held in Louisiana, as well as some jurisdictions in nearly a dozen other states: Delaware, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Tennessee. Some of those are now in the process of phasing out the paperless devices, but upgrading election security is costly.“What you just saw most recently is bipartisan agreement to fund elections at the state level, so Congress just agreed to provide 5 million, in addition to 5 million they allocated in 2018,” said Liz Howard, with the Brennan Center for Justice. “So, we’re getting close to billion from the federal government to improve election security across the country."While states continue grapple with the cost of replacing vulnerable and aging voting machines, Schneider said voters still need to do their part.“There's only one surefire way to make sure your vote is not counted,” she said, “and that's if you don't show up at the polls.” 2590

Laurie Sylvia, the fourth person in Massachusetts infected with Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) since the beginning of August, has died.Sylvia was being treated at Tufts Medical Center in Boston after contracting the dangerous mosquito-borne virus that causes brain swelling in humans, said Jeremy Lechan, Tufts' senior media relations specialist.The other cases of infection this month are those of two men over 60 and another man between 19 and 30.This is the first time EEE cases have been reported in Massachusetts since 2013.State epidemiologist Catherine Brown told CNN in a statement that warmer temperatures and above-average rainfall in July sped up virus replication in mosquitoes, which could explain the uptick in EEE activity.Migratory birds might have even spread a new strain of the virus, though lab tests that could prove that have yet to be completed, she said.In Florida and Delaware, the virus has been detected in sentinel chickens, though neither state has seen any cases reported in humans.EEE kills one-third of those infectedEEE is rare but potentially fatal. Anywhere from 5 to 10 human cases are reported every year, but about 30% of all cases are fatal, according to the 1213
