Hobie® Eyewear Announces Exciting Partnership with Carson-Newman University Fishing Team

Posted on Wednesday, 9 April, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

Hobie® Eyewear Announces Exciting Partnership with Carson-Newman University Fishing Team

OCEANSIDE, CA (April 8, 2025) – Hobie® Eyewear is thrilled to announce a new partnership with the Carson-Newman University (CNU) Eagle Anglers, a powerhouse collegiate fishing team known for their success on the national stage. This collaboration underscores Hobie® Eyewear’s commitment to supporting the next generation of competitive anglers while advancing sustainability efforts within the sport.

Founded in 2017 as a small club, the Eagle Anglers have since grown into a university-funded program, consistently making their mark at the highest levels of collegiate fishing. Their third-place finish in the 2023-24 Bass Pro Shops National School of the Year series highlights their dedication, skill, and passion for the sport. With a team of 40+ anglers traveling across the country to compete, CNU Fishing is a force to be reckoned with.

“Eyewear is an essential component of a successful day on the water. Quality sunglasses not only allow you to see below the surface but also prevent eye strain and fatigue,” said CNU Head Coach Hunter Sales. “With Hobie® Eyewear’s focus on sustainability, it made a ton of sense for our youth anglers to partner with them to ensure we’re all able to enjoy this sport for many years to come. We’re excited to help bring awareness to the performance benefits of Hobie Eyewear!”

Hobie® Eyewear, a leader in premium polarized sunglasses, is committed to delivering superior visual clarity and eye protection for anglers of all skill levels. Their latest innovation, Hull Float, is the first-ever sunglass model made from 100% upcycled Hobie® kayak plastic. This revolutionary design not only enhances on-the-water performance but also contributes to environmental conservation, as a portion of proceeds from Hull Float sales directly benefits the FishAmerica Foundation, supporting fisheries and habitat restoration projects across the country.

CNU Angler Ewing Minor discusses Hobie® Eyewear’s new Hull Float sunglasses at the 2025 Bassmaster Classic. Minor finished 4th in the Bassmaster Kayak Championship at Lake Fork, TX.

“We’re excited to partner with the Carson-Newman University Fishing Team, a group of talented and driven young anglers who embody the passion and dedication that define our brand,” said Dylan Coates, Marketing Manager at Hobie® Eyewear. “Their commitment to excellence on and off the water aligns perfectly with our mission, and together, we look forward to promoting sustainable fishing practices and top-tier eyewear performance.”

Beyond this partnership, Hobie® Eyewear is also proud to support Bassmaster Elite Series Angler Carl Jocumsen in his Fear My Heart Lake Cleanups, an initiative focused on keeping our waterways clean for future generations. Jocumsen’s efforts serve as a call to action for all anglers and outdoor enthusiasts to take an active role in preserving the lakes and rivers they enjoy. Whether through organized events or small personal efforts, everyone can make a difference in maintaining clean, thriving fisheries. Hobie® Eyewear encourages anglers of all levels to join in these cleanups and be a part of the movement to protect our waters.

The inaugural Fear My Heart Lake Cleanup took place in 2023 on the Tennessee River. The 3rd annual cleanup is planned for later this year.

With this partnership, Hobie® Eyewear and the CNU Eagle Anglers are paving the way for a brighter, more sustainable future in competitive fishing. For more information, visit www.hobieeyewear.com or follow Hobie® Eyewear and CNU Fishing on social media.

GA-ASI Expands Targeting Capability for MQ-9B SeaGuardian(r)

Posted on Tuesday, 8 April, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

MQ-9B SeaGuardian | General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc.

GA-ASI EXPANDS TARGETING CAPABILITY FOR MQ-9B SEAGUARDIAN^®

New Software Will Provide In-Flight Target Updates

SAN DIEGO – 7 April 2025 – General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) has demonstrated software that will provide in-flight target updates that will enable the MQ-9B SeaGuardian^® Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) to close gaps on maritime targets. In a recent ground test, GA-ASI demonstrated the ability to send sensor data to the missile via Link 16 messaging. The software, part of General Atomics’ Quadratix software enterprise, was validated in a Systems Integration Lab and is gearing up for a live-fire demonstration later this year.

“We continue to build on the innovative capabilities of SeaGuardian for the U.S. Navy,” said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. “The targeting we’ve demonstrated will be especially valuable in contested environments, enabling an unmanned asset like SeaGuardian to be used for higher-risk missions instead of putting manned assets at risk.”

Being able to fire and use SeaGuardian for targeting will significantly enhance the aircraft’s mission set. GA-ASI first showcased its targeting capability for SeaGuardian during the U.S. Navy’s Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2024.

SeaGuardian is a maritime derivative of GA-ASI’s MQ-9B SkyGuardian^® and remains the first UAS to offer multi-domain Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Targeting (ISR&T) as an internal payload that can search the ocean’s surface and its depths in support of Fleet Operations.

With strong demand already in place, GA-ASI anticipates increasing interest in the MQ-9B SeaGuardian because it delivers high-end maritime capabilities at a significantly lower cost than traditional manned maritime platforms.

About GA-ASI

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. is the world’s foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Logging more than 8 million flight hours, the Predator^® line of UAS has flown for over 30 years and includes MQ-9A Reaper^®, MQ-1C Gray Eagle^® 25M, MQ-20 Avenger^®, XQ-67A, YFQ-42A, and MQ-9B SkyGuardian^®/SeaGuardian^®. The company is dedicated to providing long-endurance, multi-mission solutions that deliver persistent situational awareness and rapid strike.

NSSF Praises DOJ and ATF Announcement Eliminating Biden-Era ‘Zero-Tolerance’ Policy

NSSF Praises DOJ and ATF Announcement Eliminating Biden-Era ‘Zero-Tolerance’ Policy

DOJ & ATF Reconsidering ‘Engaged in the Business,’ ‘Stabilizing Brace’ Rules

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF® — The Firearm Industry Trade Association — praises the announcement today by the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) that the agencies are doing away with the Biden-era “zero-tolerance” policy that punished lawful and highly-regulated Federal Firearm Licensees (FFLs) for minor clerical errors. The announcement also stated the agency was reconsidering the “Engaged in the Business” Final Rule and the Final Rule regarding factoring criteria for firearms with attached “stabilizing braces.” These particular Biden-era policies have been major impediments to the lawful and highly-regulated firearm industry’s ability to provide for the exercise of the Second Amendment. Both of those Final Rules have been enjoined by federal courts.

“NSSF applauds today’s announcement by the DOJ and ATF that the Biden-era ‘zero-tolerance’ policy is being eliminated. This is great news for the industry that provides for the lawful exercise of the Second Amendment. We have worked with the Trump administration to secure this critical industry victory since the first day of the president’s second term and we value the cooperation we’ve received at DOJ and ATF to arrive at today’s decision,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “The Biden administration purposefully suffocated the firearm industry at every opportunity and no policy was more damaging than its so-called ‘zero-tolerance’ policy. This reckless policy throttled small businesses and drove many to shut down by threatening crippling administrative costs to fight against penalties for minor errors and infractions that were previously reconciled in good faith between ATF officials and law-abiding firearm retailers.”

In addition, the Biden-era “Engaged in the Business” Final Rule which redefined by edict that individuals privately selling firearms were to be considered in the business of selling firearms, requiring nearly any individual selling more than one firearm to obtain a federal firearms license (FFL). This action was designed by the Biden ATF to move the United States closer towards universal background checks, which have repeatedly been rejected by Congress. NSSF is pleased to learn of this consideration.

“Additionally, NSSF is glad to learn that the ATF rule on stabilizing arm braces is also under review,” Keane added. “The Biden-era ATF published this errant rule after determining for years that stabilizing arm braces attached to a pistol did not alter the classification of the firearm and instead decided these lawfully-sold pistols would now be regulated as short-barreled rifles (SBRs), turning tens of millions of Americans into felons overnight. Exercising the Second Amendment is not possible without the firearm industry and this announcement by the DOJ and ATF today should truly be celebrated.”

The Biden administration “zero-tolerance” policy was enacted by executive fiat, and allowed ATF to revoke a federal firearm license for a single, minor clerical error. Prior, minor administrative errors found during inspections were annotated for corrective action with ATF inspectors instructing firearm retailers on how to stay within regulations and laws. During the Biden administration, FFL warning letters and license revocations reached a blistering pace and had devastating effects on small businesses.

Former President Joe Biden infamously deemed the lawful firearm industry “the enemy” from the presidential debate stage. During the Biden administration, ATF revoked ever increasing numbers of FFL licenses each year. In addition, reports indicate that numerous FFLs voluntarily surrendered their licenses rather than endure the costly and painstaking process of clearing their name for the minor infractions.

President Donald Trump has promised to protect the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans. He signed an Executive Order directing Attorney General Pam Bondi to examine all orders, regulations and other executive department actions to assess any ongoing Second Amendment infringements and to present a proposed action plan of action to protect Americans’ rights. NSSF wholeheartedly supports these efforts and praises Acting Director Patel’s announcement today.

NSSF urges the DOJ to finalize the pending rule to permit federal firearms licensees to access the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) to voluntarily conduct employment screening checks on current and prospective employees, as provided for the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA).

About NSSF

NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

Is Your New Hire a North Korean Hacker? Perhaps, According to Google

Posted on Monday, 7 April, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

Is Your New Hire a North Korean Hacker? Perhaps, According to Google

Apr 5, 2025

(Source: iHLS)

This post is also available in: עברית (Hebrew)

North Korean hackers recently have expanded their operations by posing as legitimate remote workers to infiltrate Western companies, with the aim of generating revenue for the regime. According to a new report from Google’s Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG), these covert activities have grown significantly, extending beyond the U.S. to Europe.

The tactic involves North Korean operatives creating fake identities and posing as job seekers to secure remote work opportunities, primarily in the tech and programming sectors. The money they earn through these roles is funneled back to the North Korean government to support its activities. Over the years, U.S. authorities have repeatedly warned about this scheme, with the Department of Justice recently indicting five individuals involved in the operation. These individuals were found to have fraudulently obtained work with at least 64 American companies.

Despite increasing awareness and legal actions, such as the indictment, this scheme continues to thrive. The GTIG report confirms that North Korean IT workers are actively targeting organizations in both the U.S. and Europe. While the U.S. remains a primary target, the report highlights that these operations are growing more sophisticated, with a notable shift towards European countries. This expansion is likely a response to mounting challenges faced by North Korean operatives in securing and maintaining jobs in the U.S.

Along with the geographic expansion, North Korean IT workers are evolving their tactics. The report notes an increase in extortion campaigns and a shift towards conducting operations within corporate virtualized infrastructures, which allows for greater anonymity and control. Some workers have even been detected managing multiple personas across both Europe and the U.S., targeting sensitive sectors such as defense and government organizations.

For companies that unknowingly hire these workers, the risks are significant, including potential espionage, data theft, and operational disruption. The report emphasizes the growing complexity of these schemes, with facilitators located in multiple countries helping to circumvent identity verification and facilitate the movement of corporate assets across borders.

Update from Zastava Arms USA

Posted on Friday, 4 April, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

Important Update from Zastava Arms USA

Important Update from Zastava Arms USA
As many of you are aware, the recently announced “Liberation Day” trade policy by President Trump has brought significant changes to import duties. As a result, imports from Serbia — including our products — will now be subject to a 37% duty tax starting April 9th, per information from our customs agent.
Zastava Arms USA imports directly from Serbia, and while Serbia currently imposes import taxes of 5%–20% on US goods, we have no confirmation of the 74% figure that has been publicly suggested. We remain hopeful that communication at the state level will lead to a resolution of this issue soon.
We support President Trump’s efforts to improve conditions for American workers, and we sincerely hope that Serbia will respond swiftly and constructively.
What does this mean for you?

There will be NO price increases on the products we currently have in stock.
As always, Zastava Arms USA does not use political or other events for price gauging, and that will remain true now.
We ask all customers to contact your dealers to confirm that pricing remains unchanged until we issue any official updates.

Thank you for your continued support and trust as we navigate through these challenging times together.
