Norbert Wilczewski (* 20. Februar 1938 in Breslau) ist ein deutscher Geologe und Paläontologe.

Leben
Norbert Wilczewski besuchte nach der Volksschule in Eibelstadt ab 1948 das Realgymnasium in Würzburg und von 1953 bis 1957 das Städtische Naturwissenschaftliche Gymnasium am Hansaring in Köln und studierte anschließend an der Universität zu Köln und der Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg Geologie.

1967 wurde er bei Georg Knetsch und Erwin Rutte in Würzburg mit seiner Dissertation über Mikropaläontologische Untersuchungen im Muschelkalk Unterfrankens, die er am 31. März 1967 einreichte und am 10. Mai 1967 die mündliche Prüfung ablegte, promoviert. Für seine Dissertation entnahm er an 7 Detailprofilen aus diesen in Unterfranken etwa 220 m mächtigen Schichten durchschnittlich etwa alle 30 cm eine Probe und wertete anschließend 230 Proben aus dem Unteren Muschelkalk, 9 Stichproben aus dem Mittleren Muschelkalk und 250 Proben aus dem Oberen Muschelkalk auf den Gehalt an Mikrofossilien und deren stratigraphisches Vorkommen hin aus.

Als Ergebnis konnte er neben seinen Feststellungen über das jeweilige stratigraphische Vorkommen der einzelnen Arten der unterschiedlichen Mikrofossilien in seiner Arbeit erstmals isolierte Kieferelemente triassischer Scolecodonten auffinden und bearbeiten und eine Erstbeschreibung von Arabellites moenanus  1967 einfließen lassen. Unterstützung erfuhr er hierbei durch die polnische Wirbeltier-Paläontologin Zofia Kielan-Jaworowska, die ihn zum Kapitel der Scolecodonten beraten hat.
Annähernd zeitgleich mit Wilczewski bearbeitete vermutlich ohne gegenseitige Kenntnis Heinz Kozur, der zu dieser Zeit an der Bergakademie Freiberg forschte, ebenfalls Kieferelemente triassischer Scolecodonten aus dem Muschelkalk vom Thüringer Becken und von Norddeutschland und veröffentlichte seine Erkenntnisse ein halbes Jahr später in den Monatsberichten der Deutschen Akademie der Wissenschaften.

Bei der Bearbeitung der Foraminiferen wurde Wilczewski mit Hinweisen von Edith Kristan-Tollmann unterstützt und stellte das Vorkommen von 11 Gattungen fest. An Arten konnte er dabei trotz Steinkernerhaltung die Taxa Ammodiscus incertus ( 1839), Ammodiscus infimus ( 1846) und Glomospira gordialis ( &  1860) bestimmen.

Die zahlreich aufgefundenen Conodonten konnten 16 verschiedenen Arten (8 Gattungen) zugeordnet werden. Das von Norbert Wilczewski bei der Bearbeitung neu aufgestellte Taxon Lonchodina arcuata  1967 ist allerdings vermutlich nicht valide, da dieser Name zu dieser Zeit bereits für den devonischen Conodonten Lonchodina arcuata  &  1926 vergeben war.

1983 (3. Auflage 1995) veröffentlichte er mit Erwin Rutte einen geologischen Führer Mainfranken und Rhön.

Wilczewski wirkte später bis zu seinem Ruhestand als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter im Bereich Ingenieurgeologie der Abteilung Angewandte Geologie an der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen.

Hi. On and off for the past month I wake up in the night shaking. My arms and legs shake pretty bad and just my whoel body. I try to go back to sleep but cannot because when I close my eyes I feel like I'm falling, and it scares me. So I read until I fall asleep reading. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but for the past 3 months I am uncontrollably eating chocolate and candy and have gained almost 15 pounds. I am now 5foot 11inches and weigh 164 pounds. Also when I wake up I am really confused and almost paranoid and closing my eyes scares me the most.
Stop your unhealthy eating habits to find out if it helps. If not, see a medical doctor.

Jordan Belfort, the infamous penny-stock broker formerly known as the 'Wolf of Wall Street' recently stated that ICOs are "the biggest scam ever".
The whole cryptocurrency space has had an exceptional growth rate this year. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization recently reached its all-time high of $172 billion, which is pretty impressive since the last year the market cap was only worth $12 billion.
Many experts and analysts have various theories as to why the cryptocurrency market experienced this exceptional growth. Most attribute the growth to a broader global acceptance of cryptocurrencies by many financial institutions. A small minority, however, believes that the rapid growth was caused by the massive hype surrounding ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings). In the last couple of months, ICOs have become widely popular worldwide because of their very high returns for the early investors.
While some members of the cryptocurrency community have labeled many ICOs as fraudulent, the fact remains that the ICO model has been wildly successful as a means of raising capital. This year alone 202 different ICOs have managed to raise over $3 billion according to the data from CoinSchedule.
Most of these projects focus on offering various technological solutions for various industries like finance, entertainment, data storage etc… But known penny-stock broker Jordan Belfort, who became famous thanks to the movie The Wolf Of Wall Street, stated in a recent article that a small minority of the ICOs are total scams.
Promoters [of ICOs] are perpetuating a massive scam of the highest order on everyone. Probably 85 per cent of people out there don't have bad intentions, but the problem is, if five or 10 per cent are trying to scam you, it's a f**king disaster.
It is the biggest scam ever, such a huge gigantic scam that's going to blow up in so many people's faces. It's far worse than anything I was ever doing.
Jordan Belfort might believe that ICOs are scams but some cryptocurrency community members believe that they might be the future of venture capitalism and fundraising.
What are your thoughts on Jordan Belfort's opinion? Do you think that ICOs are a total scam that will soon pop? Let us know in the comments below!


In the peer-reviewed 2014 book Framing Farming, media scholar Carrie Freeman provides a unique study of the U.S. animal rights movement's 21st century "go veg" campaign messages, with the goal of helping public discourse begin to question if it is fair to farm anyone. Don't all animals (human and nonhuman) deserve the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
Smart people who like important books that can inspire change.
As a blind, peer-reviewed scholarly book, it is appropriate to use in both graduate and undergraduate classes.
Framing Farming questions the extent to which animal rights activists should promote animal rights when attempting to persuade meat-lovers to stop eating animals.
Through a unique frame analysis of vegan campaign materials (from websites, to videos, to bumper stickers) at five prominent U.S. animal rights organizations, and interviews with their leaders, including Ingrid Newkirk and Gene Baur, Freeman answers questions, such as: How is the movement defining core problems and solutions regarding animal farming and fishing? To which values are activists appealing? Why have movement leaders made these visual and rhetorical strategic choices – such as deciding between appealing to human self-interest, environmentalism, or altruism? To what extent is the animal rights movement actually challenging speciesist discrimination and the human/animal dualism?
Appealing to both scholars and activists, Framing Farming distinctively offers practical strategic guidance while remaining grounded in animal ethics and communication theory. It not only describes what 21st century animal rights campaigns are communicating, it also prescribes recommendations for what they should communicate to remain culturally resonant while promoting needed long-term social transformation away from using animals as resources.

Tocumen Expects Record Traffic in 2023 , Panama Real Estate via Punta Pacifica Realty
truman0988qe 2 days ago News panama panama city punta pacifica panama real estate https://www.puntapacificarealty.com
Share this article Facebook Twitter Google Whatsapp After a "robust" 2022, Tocumen International Airport is expected to set new traffic records in 2023, airport authorities announced this week. More than 15.7 million passengers passed through the "Hub of the Americas" last year, an increase of 6.6 million travelers from 2021. The airport also recovered more than 95% of the routes from before the COVID pandemic, Raffoul Arab, manager of the airport told reporters. The big takeaway from the announcement: the growth trajectory is expected to continue in 2023. "We had a robust close of the year and, if that tendency remains through 2023, we estimate to surpass all the traffic records with over 16.8 million passengers," Arab said. This is an important statement for the market. Airport traffic is a strong indicator of business and tourism activity. Strong air traffic means more executives are working here and more tourists are experiencing the country's beauty, which often translates into a stronger sales and rental real estate market. A total of 24 airlines operate from Tocumen International, including Copa, Panama's flagship airline, which connects to more than 70 destinations. Arab noted the launching of new destinations to cities in North and South America, which helped boost traffic in 2022. Tocumen also opened its Norman Foster-designed Terminal 2 , which brought new gates and world-class service to the airport. As of January 2023, Tocumen International has around 1,212 weekly departures, Simple Flying reports.

Google Flagged 106 Chrome Extensions That Are Stealing Sensitive User Data
As per Awake Security, a huge campaign in Chrome Web Store containing 111 malicious extensions, were collecting sensitive information about users. All those extensions were submitted to Chrome Web Store through fake domains, all registered at one registrar called GalComm. Awake also says the author behind all these campaigns is one, and haven't been identified yet.
Awake Security has reported about 111 malicious extensions in Chrome Web Store, that are collecting user data in the form of cookies, keystrokes, clipboard content etc. All these without being flagged since so long. And after reporting to Google last month, Google has removed 106 extensions to date, and just 5 remain live in the store as of now. Yet, all these extensions were downloaded approximately 33 million times!
When analysed, all these extensions are tracked to relate to 15,160 malicious domains, which, all were registered by one domain registrar called GalComm! While the head of this Israeli registrar denied awareness about wrongdoings, it further affirmed that it would even help law enforcement agencies to curb such activities. ICANN too has responded that GalComm was previously reported by some people, but never for fraudulent domains.
Yet, it's the common point for all 111 domains. All the extensions too had the same version number and they were listed more specifically in Awake's report titled as "The Internet's New Arms Dealers: Malicious Domain Registrars". Users can check whether they have installed any of these extensions from chrome://extensions, and remove them. All these extensions claim to be serving better web speeds, image file transformations etc.
Well, Google has already taken down 106 of these extensions and 5 are still live at this time. These were labelled as Malware in the Chrome Web Store and blocked. But the internal checking shows that many of these malicious extensions were used by oil and gas, media and entertainment, financial services, retail, high-tech, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, higher education and government organisations!

The Sacramento Oil Trains Coalition will hold a vigil on Wednesday, July 6, at 6 p.m. at the Florin Light Rail Station memorializing the 47 people killed in the oil train inferno in Canada known as the Lac-Mégantic Disaster three years ago.
The Sacramento rally and vigil is one of more than 40 actions this week across the U.S. demanding plans to run these explosive trains through cities be halted.
The vigil takes place in the capital of the third biggest oil state in the nation, where the Western States Petroleum Association (WSPA) is headquartered. WSPA, the oil industry trade association for the Western states, is the largest and most powerful corporate lobby in Sacramento. No bill opposed by the oil industry was able to pass through the legislature last year, due to the enormous influence that WSPA and Big Oil exert over the legislature and the Governor's Office.
I strongly urge you to stand up against the oil industry and for environmental justice by attending this event! Below is the press release with all of the details from the coalition. Please share widely.
SACRAMENTO – Oil train activists Wednesday will charge that more than 13,000 students at 17 schools in Sacramento are within the blast zone of oil trains – like that one carrying Bakken Formation crude oil three years ago July 6 that killed 47 people in Canada and destroyed a town. It's known as the Lac-Mégantic Disaster.
A vigil memorializing those killed in Canada will be held tonight, Wednesday, July 6 at 6 p.m. at the Florin Light Rail station across the street from Luther Burbank High School, which is located next to the track leading to Kern County refineries.
The Sacramento rally and vigil is one of more than 40 actions this week across the U.S. demanding plans to run these explosive trains through cities be halted. Locations of the actions are at stopoiltrains.org.
Sponsored by Sacramento Oil Trains Coalition, including 350 Sacramento, ANSWER, Sac Activist School, and STAND, organizers said they want to "voice our protest" and demand plans to run oil trains through Sacramento stop before another tragedy destroys innocent people's lives.
"We do not want these dangerous oil trains rolling through the communities of Sacramento, but that is exactly what the oil industry wants- to bring 100 car- long trains though our city, near our schools, home and businesses more than a day," said Chris Brown, action coordinator.
Joining the vigil and protest Wednesday will be Ellen Cochrane, Sacramento City Unified School Board Member, and other special guests.
Forty-seven people were killed when a 74-car train carrying Bakken Formation crude oil derailed, and destroyed a Canadian town three years ago on July 6. All but three of the 39 remaining downtown buildings are to be demolished due to petroleum contamination.
Bakken crude, a fracked oil from South Dakota, is very volatile and derailments have led to massive explosions - more than 15 in the past two years, including one in the Columbia River Gorge at the beginning of June, said the coalition.
"It is time we took the message of opposition out of downtown Sacramento, and into the disadvantaged communities, which, with backyards right next o the tracks, have some of the highest asthma rates in the region, from train engine fumes, and are now being subjected to this unjust risk," said Brown.


The KDEL (lys-asp-glu-leu) sequence is most common endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention signal. The ER resident proteins, which should be located in the ER, have this retention motif, and this retention is mediated by KDEL receptor. This antibody can specifically detect GRP78 (78 kDa protein) and GRP94 (94 kDa protein) including a KDEL sequence by WB.


The figure represents 9.7 per cent of the UK's total game developer headcount. Scotland is also home to 97 studios, which make up 11.1 per cent of the total number of UK game companies.
The report also revealed that 56 per cent of Scotland's game studios primarily develop for mobile and tablets. This compares to 48 per cent of studios across the whole of the UK that are focused on mobile development.
"Scotland has many exciting, growing and successful studios and games companies including 4J Studios, Blazing Griffin Games, Codeplay, deltaDNA, Firebrand, Kobojo, Ninja Kiwi Europe, Outplay, Tag, Ruffian, Speech Graphics and Rockstar," said TIGA CEO Richard Wilson.
"The Scottish video games industry has grown in recent years, partly as a result of a surge in start-ups focused on mobile and tablet games development. The challenge now is to reduce the failure rate of games companies – 30 per cent of all UK games businesses have closed down over the last five years – and to encourage the growth of more durable studios with more staff that are capable of handling larger projects."
If you want to take your games career to the next level, Scotland is the place. Scotland is home to big names in gaming like Rockstar North, Outplay Entertainment and 4J Studios. In fact, we have over 90 games studios and growing, so there are lots of opportunities to grow an exciting career.

PSI General Secretary's speech on the eve of the Intergovernmental Conference on the Global Compact for Migration in Marrakesh
"Building walls, building fences, is not a solution […] the issue is how we can receive these people with fairness, with justice, with equity," says PSI General Secretary, Rosa Pavanelli in her opening speech on the eve of the Intergovernmental Conference to Adopt the UN Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration in Marrakesh.
Human Rights, Decent Work and Access to Quality Public Services for All (Marrakesh)
8 December, 2018 to 9 December, 2018
On 8-9 December, PSI is organising a workshop, in cooperation with EPSU and FES, on "Human Rights, Decent Work and Access to Quality Public Services for All: Supporting the Role of Public Service Trade Unions in Advancing the UN Global Compact on Migration and the UN Global Compact on Refugees", in Marrakesh, Morocco. Discussions will be held on PSI's Programme of Work on Migration and Refugees (2018-2022), in relation to the UN Global Compact on Migration and the UN Global Compact on Refugees.
Stay tuned for more!
PSI Constitutional Meetings
Moroccan unionists defend their pensions
PSI affiliate from the health sector in Morocco has informed us of the action carried out by the Union Marocaine du Travail in protest against the government's planned policy to reduce retirement benefits.
General strike in Morocco on 24 February
The Moroccan trade union movement has decided to hold a general strike on 24 February because of the non-compliance of the government to its commitments on social dialogue and its violations of freedom of association.
Climate change: Towards and Beyond COP21
The solutions to the climate challenge require a substantive transformation of the current socio-economic development paradigm, including industrial change. This is not just about some technical changes to energy production or transport systems. What is required is a redefinition of the predominant model of production and consumption. We must give back to the state and public services their role in supporting our communities, and ensure that workers and trade unions are able to participate fully in all steps of this process.
PSI works in coalition with EI, ITUC, civil society partners, the ILO and others to influence the inter-governmental negotiations related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Post-2015 Development Agenda and the Financing for Development (FfD) arena.
PSI represents first responders and frontline workers. These are the people who put their lives at risk in order to protect and save your families. First responders include firefighters and emergency medical technicians, police and other uniformed services. They are also the frontline workers in hospitals and health clinics, in schools, in energy and water utilities; in public transport; in civil administration and in a range of other areas. All of us depend on these people being able to do their jobs, having the right tools and training.
Ebola Response
Deaths to health workers accounted for six percent of all deaths confirmed as due to EVD, even to the end of the outbreaks. Over 500 health workers, including members of PSI affiliated unions, were killed in the line of duty. PSI is actively lobbying national governments, the ILO and WHO and working with health and allied care workers in our unions to rebuild health systems that can resist future outbreaks in the context of universal access to essential healthcare, which is the core of the post-2015 agenda for health.


Mmm difficult. I like the blue too but I love the picture on the orange one. The dragon with it's wings open and the black hares (?) with red eyes just looking on at the bottom. Hard choice but I think Fighting with Fire wins for me too.
I prefer the blue - I'm very fussy with orange/red covers. It is a cool one though.

Today Jessica turned two weeks old.
She came home to live with us a little over a week ago, on Tuesday, January 30, after spending the first six days of her life in the NICU. We were, as you can imagine, overjoyed to finally bring her home.
She is doing very well; in fact, she was up to four pounds at her doctor's visit last Friday. I suspect she'll be up to five pounds before the month is over. Anna and I are doing okay too. We're very tired but quite happy.
Jessica is an alert and interested baby; she studies the faces of new people and the walls of new rooms intently, and the mobile over her crib keeps her happy for...well, we don't know exactly how long, since it shuts off automatically after fifteen minutes, but at least for fifteen minutes. We've read Dr. Seuss's ABC and Are You My Mother? to her several times, and, while I'm not sure how well she's following the plots or if she's getting much out of the pictures, she's intrigued by the sounds of our voices as we read, interested in our hands as we turn pages, and delighted that we're focused solely on her. We're delighted right back.
She's also a real wiggle worm. If we don't put her diapers on tight enough, she can squirm almost all the way out of them. I've taken to calling her the Houdini of Huggies (though she's actually wearing Pampers).
And speaking of Pampers, we may be going to the bank soon to take out a second mortgage on our house to keep her in those diapers. As Veta Simmons says in Harvey, "babies do need changing, you know." She can go through a pack of 20 Pampers Swaddlers in less than 48 hours.
We don't know what caused Jessica to be so small; the doctors call it Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR), and it can result from a number of things, including various viruses and problems with the placenta. None of those things seemed to be a factor in Jessica's case, however; she's just a very small baby. It's likely there will be no long-term problems as a result of her being an IUGR baby, and she will probably catch up to typical-size babies by the time she's two.
Thanks to everyone who has sent us packages and cards and notes; we are buoyed by the knowledge that we have such supportive family and friends. Jessica sends her thanks too.

• Shopping malls are normally located in prime locations which are simply accessible. If a retailer sets up a store in a mall, he can have the store in a primary location with a minimal investment. However, if he makes an attempt buying a shop in such a location, he may not be able to afford it. A rented property implies low initial funding. This allows the businessman to utilize the saved amount on his enterprise.

Q: How to add changed dts-file in kernel in Yocto? How to add changed dts file  and add own configure kernel file (.conf)in Yocto project? What recipe should i change and how?

A: For your purpose I would create my own layer then add kernel bbhappend :
sources/meta-ziegfried/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-tn-imx_%.bbappend

for the recipe exact name you should specify your exact kernel recipe name instead of mine. To know the name you can do :
$ oe-pkgdata-util lookup-recipe kernel

Then create a sources/meta-ziegfried/recipes-kernel/linux/patchs/ directory and simply add your modification of dts within a patch :
$ cat sources/meta-ziegfried/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-tn-imx_%.bbappend

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/patchs:"

SRC_URI += " file://0001-add-ziegfried-modified-dts.patch \
       "

And voilà that will automatically add your dts in the kernel.
For the kernel conf regarding the yocto version you are using you can use kernel fragment :

Moncler, through the normal business management and the development of its strategy, is exposed to different types of risks that could adversely affect the Group's operating results and financial position.
The most important business risks are constantly monitored by the Control, Risks and Sustainability Committee and periodically reviewed by the Board of Directors, which is responsible for the development of the strategy.
Moncler operates in the luxury goods sector which is characterized by a high correlation between the demand of goods and the wealth, economic growth and stability in the markets where the demand is generated. In addition, the Group's ability to develop its business depends to a significant extent on the economic situation of the various countries in which it operates.
Although the Group operates in a significant number of countries around the world, thereby reducing the risk of high concentration, the possible deterioration of economic conditions in one or more markets in which it operates may have a negative impact on sales and financial results of the Group.
The luxury goods sector in which Moncler operates is influenced by changes in clients' tastes and preferences, but also by different habits in the regions in which it operates. In addition, the Group's success is significantly influenced by the image, perception and recognition of the Moncler brand. The Group strives to maintain and enhance the strength of the Moncler brand, paying particular attention to the quality of the products, the design, the innovation, the communication and the development of its own distribution model, by looking for selectivity, quality and sustainability. Moncler is committed to integrating sustainability assessments in its actions and decisions, since the company believes that the continue creation of value for its stakeholders is an essential priority for its reputation.
In case the Group will not be able in the future to maintain a high image and brand recognition, through its products and activities, sales and financial results may be affected negatively.
Moncler's results and success depend significantly on the ability of its executive directors and other members of management, which have had a decisive role in the development of the Group and which have a significant experience in the luxury goods sector.
Even though Moncler believes that it has an operational and managerial structure capable of ensuring the continuity of the business, if the existing relationship with some of these individuals were to be interrupted without proper and timely replacement, the competitive ability of the Group and its growth prospects may be affected, with a resulting negative impact on the economic and financial position of the Group.
Moncler directly manages the development of the collections and the purchase of raw materials, while for the production of its garments it uses both independent third party manufacturers, who operate under the close supervision of the Group, and internal production.
Although the Group does not depend to a significant extent on any given manufacturer, there is the possibility that any interruption or termination for any reason of the relationship with these manufacturers may materially affect the Group's business with a negative impact on sales and earnings.
Moncler maintains constant and continual control over its group of third-party manufacturers in order to ensure there is full compliance, among other things, with labour laws and environmental laws and with the principles of Moncler's Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct for Suppliers. Moncler performs audits at these third-party manufacturers and at their sub-suppliers. The risk cannot be excluded, however, that any one of these might not fully comply with the agreements entered into with Moncler.
Moncler's products require raw materials of high quality, including, but not limited to, nylon, down and cotton. The price of raw materials depends on a wide variety of factors largely beyond the control of the Group and difficult to predict.
Although in recent years Moncler has not encountered any particular difficulties in the purchasing of high quality raw materials to the extent appropriate, it cannot be excluded that there could be some tension on the supply side that could lead to a shortage of supply resulting in an increase in costs that could have a negative impact on the financial results of the Group.
Moncler adopts a stringent policy with all its raw material suppliers, who are required to abide by clear commitments to quality and compliance with current legislation on worker protection, animal protection and environmental protection. With regards to animal welfare, Moncler created a multi-stakeholder forum, which approved the DIST (Down Integrity System and Traceability) Protocol, focused on the down. All suppliers have to scrupulously comply with it, in order to guarantee the traceability of raw materials, animal welfare and the highest quality standards for all the supply chain.
Moncler generates an increasing portion of its revenues through the retail channel, consisting of directly operated mono-brand stores (DOS) and the online store. The Group has over the years demonstrated the ability to open new stores in the most prestigious locations in the most important cities in the world and within high profile department stores, despite strong competition among key luxury goods players to secure these positions. This is the reason why the fact that the Group might face difficulties in opening new stores, which could have a negative impact on the growth of the business, should not be excluded.
In addition, by its nature, the retail business is characterized by a great incidence of fixed costs, mainly related to rental agreements. Although Moncler's management showed the ability in the years to develop a profitable retail business, it cannot be excluded that a potential turnover slowdown could reduce the Group's capability to generate profits.
The luxury goods market is known to be prone to brand and product counterfeiting.
Moncler has made considerable investments in the adoption of innovative technologies which allow products to be tracked along the value chain, to prevent and mitigate the effects of counterfeiting of its brands and products and to protect its intellectual property rights in the territories in which it operates. However, it cannot be excluded that the presence on the market of significant quantities of counterfeit products may adversely affect the image of the brand, with a negative impact on sales and operating results.
Moncler operates in a complex international environment and is subject, in the various jurisdictions in which it operates, to rules and regulations which are constantly monitored, especially for all matters relating to the health and safety of workers, environmental protection, rules around manufacturing of products and their composition, client protection, the protection of intellectual and industrial property rights, competition rules, fiscal rules, and, in general, all relevant regulatory provisions.
The Group operates following the legal provisions in force. Nevertheless, since the legislation on some matters, especially on tax issues, is characterized by a high degree of complexity and subjectivity, it cannot be excluded that a different interpretation to that of the Group could have a significant impact on the results.
The enactment of new legislation or amendments to existing laws which may require the adoption of more stringent standards could lead, by way of example, to costs of compliance linked to the production process or the features of the products, or could even limit the Group's operations with a negative impact on the financial results.
Moncler operates in international markets using currencies other than the Euro, of which mainly Yen, U.S. Dollar, Renminbi and Hong Kong Dollar. Therefore it is exposed to the risk associated with fluctuations in exchange rates, equal to the transaction amount (mainly income) which are not covered by a matching transaction of the same currency. In 2014, the Group initiated a strategy to gradually hedge the risks associated with exchange rates fluctuations limiting its actions to the so called "transactional risk".
However, also due to the so called "translational risk", arising from the translation in Euro of financial statements of foreign companies denominated in local currency, it cannot be excluded that significant changes in exchange rates could have an positive or negative impact on the Group's results and financial position.
For more information, please refer to the specific section 9.1 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.
The Net Financial Position of the Group consists of cash and bank loans denominated primarily in Euros and is subject to interest rate risk. The Group, in order to partially hedge the interest rate risk, has entered into some hedging transactions.
However, any significant fluctuations in interest rates could lead to an increase in borrowing costs, with a negative impact on the Group's financial results.
Moncler operates in accordance with the credit control policies aimed at reducing the risks resulting from insolvency of its wholesale clients. These policies are based on preliminary in-depth analysis of the reliability of the clients and based on eventual insurance coverage and/or guaranteed form of payment. In addition, the Group has no significant concentrations of credit.
However, it cannot be excluded that the difficulty of some clients may result in losses on receivables, with a negative impact on the Group's financial results.
For more information, please refer to the section 9.2 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.
The Group has implemented financial planning process aimed at reducing the liquidity risk, also taking into consideration the seasonality of the business. Based upon the financial requirements, credit lines required to meet those needs are planned with the financial institutions and are classified be- tween short-term and long-term.
For more information, please refer to the section 9.3 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.


Bayesian variable selection in structured regression problems has been a major area of research for the last twenty years. In 1996, Hugh Chipman wrote a paper exploring regression with related predictors, focusing on the polynomial regression models in several predictors. Since then, there has been little written in the Bayesian literature about this particular problem, though shrinkage methods — such as the LASSO — have been adapted in several ways to address frequentist estimation in these settings. In this talk, we pro- vide alternatives and extensions to Chipman's model space priors under both strong and weak heredity conditions. We also provide a new theoretical ar- gument for strong heredity that complements Peixoto's invariance argument. Further, we will also cast the model selection problem in the framework of adaptive Bayesian shrinkage (e.g. that of Scott, Polson, and Carvalho) for both weak and strong heredity conditions. These methods of analysis lend themselves to MCMC techniques and can be computed efficiently. This is joint work with Daniel Taylor-Rodriguez and Nikolay Bliznyuk.

I caused a small degree of bemusement today among staff where I work when one of the more eagle-eyed of them noticed that one of my browser tabs had the label "Resignation" on it. It was actually quite nice to have them express concern that I might be leaving for other pastures, but in this case it was the header for a page on our intranet about the management procedures for processing the resignations of staff. I was reminding myself of these because here in the UK, A Level results are due out in about two weeks – and a fair proportion of our Weekend Staff are therefore about to be heading away to universities around the country.
It's an interesting reminder that people spot and interpret the smallest minutiae in interesting ways – and mirrors the experience we had this weekend where the smalls reported back their aunt a conversation that Lady M and I had about tickets to Legoland in pretty much the same cadences and accents as we'd used. I was unaware of their secondary jobs as living voice recorders… Hopefully this is not a talent that they will take with them into the workforce in years to come..!

Importance of Radio License
Broadcasting is interesting as many people will always listen to the entertainment during their free time. Radio stations have been there of which many people have become fond of, this means that, for a radio station to keep broadcasting without any interference there must be a license involved. The importance of broadcasting is that, many get educated, other get entertained as well as getting updated on what is trending around the country and in the world. That is why we will be discussing more about the merits of having a license for your radio station.
By having a license for the radio station you will have your broadcasting safe and secured, this is because airing the programs need a licensed station for safety reasons. More so, the reason why a radio station must have a license is because this is the right protocol to follow when broadcasting as you do not want to keep running an illegal station. By having a licensed radio station you will have a chance of airing more programs of which it will benefit the services due to the massive numbers of listeners. Without a license one can barely do any broadcasting as this is unacceptable.
By having a license for the radio station, you will be free from any blockages, this is because the waves will be aired consistently and accurately allowing you to run the programs without having any difficulties. A radio station that is licensed is the best as the waves will be clearer for fans to enjoy the entertainment win peace. With a licensed radio station you will have frequency in airing anything you want your fans to hear, of which this cannot happen if in case there is no license. With a radio license you can easily and freely use the handheld radio on frequency range, of which this is very crucial and entertaining for the fans.
When it comes to choosing the right radio license companies make sure to consider a few things, this is because the services do vary in many ways. A good license provider has options, of which the portfolio must be read and have the quotation understood. With the right license provider, you will be able to get the best radio waves of which you can easily manage the frequency of your program. The radio license provider must therefore have a wide range of options that will benefit more stations depending on on with what they want to air.
A good radio license provider will provide with swift and affordable airing , of which the crew will be able to contact the stations with ease and flexibility. A good radio license provider will have trained staff whom you can rely upon in case of any hitches, this means that, the staff must be ready to assist in case of any hitches experienced. You also need to look for a license provider who is affordable and has multiple choices for broadcasting, this way you will be flexible to choose what suits your radio needs.

The History of Matchmaking
Get yourself matched with women of foreign
influence and experience true love & affection!
Matchmaking is the method of pairing two individuals with the sole purpose of commitment and marriage. Over the years, matchmaking has created a bridge to both men and women in finding their true love. Although it is observable in today's generation, matchmaking can be traced back in time but in a much different form than it is known today. Learn how it has become the kind of matchmaking known at present by looking back on its history.
Different from modern-day matchmaking, the old times offer a kind of matchmaking which is physically done through the help of an intermediary or a matchmaker. Whether it is done formally or informally (depending on the culture of a certain place), its main goal is to promote marriage to individuals being matchmade. An example of this is the professional way of pairing individuals where romance should be tangled with human rights.
Continental Asia has its unique matchmaking ways in the old times. Here, matchmaking can be observed through arranged marriage and astronomical understanding. This type of matchmaking can be seen in certain parts of Asia where the goal of marriage is to expand business and territories. The said matchmaking is done by both parents through arranging a meeting where their children can be introduced to each other.
Every detail is to be planned out by the parents; the main job of the matchmade couple is to hopefully fall in love with each other. However, this is not necessarily applicable in all parts of Asia. Again, matchmaking in Asia differs from country to country, from culture to culture and from one tradition to another.
A more interesting history of matchmaking is observable in primitive Europe. An example of this is in Nikolaev, Ukraine. A duke of old Nikolaev called for the town's women to marry the shipbuilders of the city. Matching them goes with women standing in front of the shipbuilders who would pick their preferred bride. Wedding then followed right after the shipbuilders declared their choice. This history has given birth to Nikolaev, Ukraine being tagged as "The City of Brides." For many years, the genes of those who were involved in history have been passed down resulting to hundreds of beautiful and gorgeous Ukrainian women.
In Russia and Latin America, religion took the biggest contribution when it comes to matchmaking. The clergies serve as the intermediaries in matchmaking personals within the area. They believe that this kind of matchmaking revolves around the belief of lifelong companionship. They are responsible in pairing up men and women in accordance to their preferences and religious beliefs.
Because of the success rates of matchmaking in history, it has opened an opportunity to entrepreneurs to build their own companies and institutions in matchmaking services. However, due to modernization, it has taken a different form and has expanded internationally. Although traditional matchmaking can still be observed, matchmaking sites have garnered more attention over the past years. Names of different marriage agencies and matchmaking sites have risen and luckily, you have found yourself in one of the best marriage platforms : A New Bride.
The Role of Matchmaking - How it has Become One's Instrument in Finding True Love
Find the love of your life through our widely-
known social tours.
Although matchmaking has become obsolete in the course of time, it had its reemergence in the past years and has become more popular than ever; however, it has taken a different form. Instead of having intermediaries in the process of finding the right one, lovelorn individuals have taken the quest of finding "the one" into their own hands.
From a rigorous and tiring match-finding, it has now become more convenient and easy because of this one-click away process; this is due to the availability of modern technology. It has created an avenue to an easier way of finding the right one for you through the internet.
The internet has become a gateway of endless possibilities. It has provided a window for the matchmaking industry to catapult back in business and even expand online through matchmaking sites and online marriage agencies. It has taken down the barriers of traditional matchmaking. You can find your match beyond the borders of your own culture and you can communicate with foreign singles across the globe.
Matchmaking may have changed its form, but still, it has the same end-goal as before, and that is to bridge people for marriage. However, both forms differ in terms of their processes and the emotional involvement of the couple. While traditional matchmaking does not offer much when it comes to personal choice especially if it's done through arranged marriage, modern-day matchmaking gives you the opportunity to seek out and find the person of your choice.
The emotional involvement of both men and women in the process has a lot to do with the success of their marriage. Comparable to traditional matchmade couples, modern-day couples are more likely to have a harmonious relationship in their marriage because they get to choose for their own and no intermediaries are involved; this would mean lesser opinions to think of. Remember that when it comes to marriage, only the husband and the wife are supposed to be involved.
Online matchmaking sites can help you find your good match.
