Apples iCloud service lets users sync a staggering amount of data between Macs, Windows PCs, iPhones, and iPads. Though Apple says it stores this data securely in an encrypted format, just how safe is it? An Ars reader wrote in to ask us this question, so we decided to investigate.The simple answer is that your data is at least as safe as it is when stored on any remote server, if not more so. All data is transferred to computers and mobile devices using secure sockets layer via WebDAV, IMAP, or HTTP. All data except e-mail and notes—more on that later—are stored and encrypted on disk on Apples servers. And secure authentication tokens are created on mobile devices to retrieve information without constantly transmitting a password.

Actually, your only “job” in this intergalactic affair called life is thinking.
That’s it. That’s all there is. And should you learn to focus your thinking, to dwell upon what you want instead of what you don’t want, and to live as if your thoughts are more real than the prior manifestations that surround you, your life will become easy, floodgates will burst open, and if you want, everyone shall know your name. Somebody must have been loving you, BIG TIME, when this old world began spinning. Your secret admirer –

What can you tell me about these two men?
I understood they were father and son but which is which? When where they painted?
Probably painted in London definitely 19thC.
They were both cut down from full size and no obvious signature though they are rather dirty.
Thanks
