Third US Recipient Of Aeson Artificial Heart Is The First-Ever Woman
The procedure to implant the heart made by Carmat was performed at the UofL Health-Jewish Hospital. Although the surgery was the third in the U.S., it's a first for the device maker: a female recipient. Beyondspring's lung cancer study, Illumina's Grail acquisition and bad drug ads are also in the news.
Reuters: French Company Carmat Announces First Implant Of Its Artificial Heart In A Woman
French artificial heartmaker Carmat (ALCAR.PA) announced on Tuesday that it had carried out the first implant of its Aeson artificial heart in a woman. The company said the procedure had been performed at the UofL Health - Jewish Hospital by University of Louisville physicians in the United States. "This third implant in the U.S. was a landmark event not only because it allowed us to finalize the enrollment of the first cohort of patients of the EFS (early feasibility study), but very importantly because it is the first time ever that our device has helped a woman suffering from heart failure," Carmat CEO Stephane Piat said in a statement.

In pharmaceutical industry news —
Stat: Beyondspring Lung Cancer Study Results Trigger Debate
Beyondspring's stock price tripled in August after the New York drug maker said its experimental treatment helped patients with advanced lung cancer live longer. But detailed results presented Monday revealed issues with the conduct and analysis of the clinical trial — leaving the company's claim of a survival benefit open for debate. (Feuerstein, 9/20)
Stat: European Commission Seeks To Intervene In Illumina's Acquisition Of Grail
In an unusual step, the European Commission plans to intervene in the recent merger between Illumina (ILMN) and Grail because regulators were unable to finish reviewing the deal before it was completed, raising concerns that competition in the market for DNA sequencing tests will now be damaged. The move comes one month after Illumina stunned regulators by announcing it had closed its $8 billion acquisition, even though the EC had opened an investigation only weeks earlier at the prompting of France and five other European Union member states. In the U.S., the Federal Trade Commission had already filed a complaint last March to block the deal. (Silverman, 9/20)
FiercePharma: Good Ad Or Bad Ad? FDA Quiz Reminds Docs About Its Bad Ad Program To Police Problematic Advertising
True or false: Pharmaceutical companies are required to send drug ads to the FDA for approval before they're used. It's false—but you'd already know that if you took the FDA's new interactive quiz to help promote its Bad Ad program. Now in its 12th year, the FDA's Bad Ad program is promoting itself to healthcare providers to determine false or misleading advertising and report it to the FDA for review. The FDA's Office of Prescription Drug Promotion (OPDP) in the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) oversees the program. (Bulik, 9/20)

When completing inventory must be completed for all rows. In the Organization field, specify the full name of the campaign, for example, the limited liability company "Vostok". In this same line, you need to specify all-Russian classifier of enterprises and organizations, it and you can see in the records.
Below the line recorded a structural unit, for example, transport. If the campaign uses the codes for such units, he indicated. Then specify the OKVED.
Next you need to write the basis for inventory, such as order (order) of the head. In "date of inventory" and "end date inventory indicates the test period, according to the order.
Exist in the inventory count "transaction Code" if your organization will apply the coding, then put the code, but if no – dash.
In the inventory all values are ordinal numbers, respectively, they appear in the right column, and next put the date of validation for each name and type values, for example, inventories.
After the word which it is necessary to specify rights of ownership, for example owned by the organization.
In column 2, you must specify the account which reflects balances of values, for example, if the materials 10, the basic means – 01.After that, you specify the characteristics of the assets, sort, type, measurement units according to OKEI, inventory number, cost of each unit and the passport number.
After everything is filled counted, the responsible person in the "Actual availability" shall indicate the number and the sum of values, sum up all the remains and record them in the column "total", and then sign.
Next, inventory the inventory is transferred to the accounting Department where they are put down balances listed on the balance sheet. The accountant should sign. If there are differences in the data, is compiled collation statement.

Consumers Embrace Wellness Brands That Deliver Transparency
Given the sharp uptick in consumer anxiety over the past year, it's not surprising to see a corresponding increase in the amount of money spent on wellness. The global digital health market is one of the fastest-growing segments of the $3.7 trillion global wellness market, encompassing $368 billion in 2018 and expected to reach $418 billion by 2020.Brands that are most successful have taken advantage of technology to "come clean" while encouraging clean living. They're creating clever and innovative assets and incorporating the latest social media strategies to drive their brand promises of authenticity and transparency. Let's take a look at how some brands are positioning themselves as winners in this space.
Enabling a healthier, more conscious lifestyle
According to a 2016 study, 73 percent of consumers say they're willing to pay more for a product that promises total transparency. Thanks to social media and brands that populate their feeds with mission-revealing posts, consumers now have visibility into a brand's viewpoints and values. If these values reflect their own, consumers will buy. Goop, Glossier, and RxBar know this well. Lifestyle brand Goop promises fans unbiased coverage of a variety of topics while selling a curated selection of lifestyle products for the mindful consumer. Their social giving efforts support their ethical and socially conscious brand values, and include the David Lynch foundation, which brings free transcendental meditation instruction to youth in urban schools, and The Edible Schoolyard Project which incorporates Edible Education lessons into K-12 school core curriculum.Protein bars are popular with health-conscious consumers looking for a energy boost on-the-go, but many are made with less-than-healthy foods. RxBar was founded with the goal of creating a simple and nutritious protein bar. From their homepage plainly stating "This is our product" to their packaging consisting of a bolded ingredients list punctuated with "No B.S.", RxBar is focused on creating real food for clean eaters.
Online meal kits for conscious eating
Healthy eating can seem like a big time commitment. Health conscious and time-strapped consumers who want to know everything they're eating are able to go online and purchase a meal kit that meets their dietary specifications, and schedule it to be delivered when convenient for them, including on a recurring set-it-and-forget-it schedule. The sites provide detailed ingredient sources and calorie counts. This all adds up to consumers feeling happy they are making a health-conscious purchase, while checking off a chore from their to-do list. As the trend expands into the supermarket, spending on meal kits is expected to grow 41% this year alone.
The rise of clean beauty
BeautyCounter founder Gregg Renfrew was inspired to launch the brand after learning the EU had banned over 1,400 beauty product ingredients, while the U.S. had only banned 11. BeautyCounter uses technology to educate beauty buffs on the ingredients in the products they're using and why they matter. BeautyCounter provides a glossary of ingredients they use, explaining what they do and in which products they're used. They also have a list of common beauty product ingredients they are committed to never using—with explanation. When combined with their advocacy efforts, BeautyCounter is creating as much of a health and wellness movement as they are a beauty brand. Similarly, Sephora has seen that mindful consumers want to be informed of the ingredients and manufacturing processes that go into producing their beauty purchases, and are willing to pay a premium for a brand that gives healthier alternatives. They are meeting this need through their Clean at Sephora curated products both online and in-store.
The tech that builds better customer experience
From these examples, it's easy to see how a focus on consumer education and transparency—delivered through the Web and social—positively impacts the consumer/brand relationship. In the process of creating well-educated customers, health and wellness brands are also creating a passionate, engaged, and loyal customer base. We've examined a number of top health and wellness brands—covering everything from athleisure to medical retail—and will be sharing additional insights into how they are investing in technology to create better customer experiences in future posts. Stay tuned.

A guided tour of the palatial Alhambra in Granada is one of the best ways to experience the World Heritage site's grandeur. Purchasing Alhambra tickets in Granada is a traveler's safest bet for entry onto the typically crowded grounds. As with any popular tourist destination, there are some warnings and dangers to consider.
The smartest move any visitor can make is to book their Alhambra tickets well in advance. As one of the country's most explored attractions, it certainly is wise. Otherwise, be prepared to wait for as long as several hours before securing a ticket. Even then, you may not always be in luck. The main highlight of Alhambra is Nasrid Palace, and because it's so popular tickets are often sold out by the time visitors reach the front of the line. Note that even after booking tickets, you'll stand in a rather lengthy line to simply pick them up. Guests note that it moves fairly quickly, though. If tickets to Nasrid Palace are sold out, tickets to view other areas of the complex, such as the Gardens, are usually available for a lesser fee.
Another reason to book in advance is sheer number: there are only 400 visitors permitted every half hour. Tickets can be purchased on the Alhambra office website, or at any BBVA bank branch. Be sure to bring both the provided receipt and your passport to the ticket office, or you'll be turned away. Note that even if tickets to Nasrid Palace are sold out, visitors can usually still get tickets to view other areas or simply wander through the general area open to the public. Tickets for evening visits are another option are considerably less crowded.
Once you've booked your ticket for Nasrid Palace, be aware that you're given a specific session during which to visit. You're only permitted to enter within half an hour of that time—if you miss it, you're out of luck and will not be allowed inside. However, once you do gain entry you are permitted to stay until the end of your allotted session.
Alhambra is an enormous complex, and to navigate it solo could be a challenge for even the most seasoned traveler. Many visitors recommend renting out a media set at the on-site ticket booth. There's a small fee, but you'll also need to provide some sort of collateral as a deposit—a credit card is the usual offering. The media set includes a map that breaks the complex down into manageable parts and makes it easier to peruse as you listen to the guided tour via the provided headset.
Editor's note: The information contained on this page was compiled using real traveler reviews about warnings and dangers booking Alhambra tickets in Granada.


I'm a counsellor who works outdoors. I can help you through difficult times in your life.
As a qualified counsellor I can help guide you through major life changes such as bereavement.
"I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in." John Muir.
Going to wild places to seek inner peace and wisdom is as relevant today as it was in ancient times.The weather and the changing seasons means that each time I go outdoors my experience is never the same. This keeps me open to new possibilities. For me this is not an escape from reality, rather real life lived more simply and with greater clarity.
Through counselling you may discover why you react to situations in the way that you do and what you could choose to do differently. Being outdoors gives opportunities to stand and stare, for solitude and for reflection.

Your experience of life is unique. How we work together and what we talk about depends on you.


Every major auto manufacturer is committing to the connected car in some way. What "connected" means is likely to vary according to which manufacturer you talk to, but there's little doubt we'll see cars get more sensors, more apps, more in-dash control systems and more automation. According to Gartner, one in five cars on the road will be self-aware enough to discern and share information on their mechanical health, global position and status of their surroundings. Industry-wide growth is expected to stay at 30% annually between now and 2020 as a result.
Less clear is how we'll take advantage of the technology that's working its way into millions of new vehicles. Making cars smarter is one thing; we also need to improve the IQ of roads, cities, bridges, garages, traffic systems, and more so that connected cars have things to connect to. At Hewlett Packard Enterprise, we're helping to usher in a smarter driving experience with a unique combination of technologies, expertise and partnerships.
Beyond the basic concept of a connected vehicle equipped with Internet access, new markets have emerged, such as vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-cloud (V2C), vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X).
A recent study by the Centre for Automotive Research highlighted that "the average car now contains 60 microprocessors, and more than 10 million lines of software code — more than half the lines of code found in a Boeing Dreamliner airplane." Cars are becoming increasingly intelligent, and by 2018 one in five cars on the road will be self-aware and able to discern and share information on their mechanical health, global position and status of their surroundings. This self-awareness, together with the need to be constantly on, requires reliable connectivity and internet of things solutions.
The rollout of 4G LTE, and subsequently 5G networks, will further increase the capabilities of the connected vehicle, and facilitate faster transmission rates and higher volumes of data. Tier-1 communication service providers and telcos are ideally suited to provide such connectivity while needing an IoT solutions partner to address the automotive needs.
The car of the future will be safer for passengers and other road users. V2V and V2X communications coupled with high-speed analytics will make this a reality, and introduce heretofore unimaginable conveniences. Just imagine being able to pay for gas and parking charges from your car. And with analytics built in, the connected car will be able to offer not only pay-as-you-drive insurance, but also pay-how-you-drive insurance — rewarding good drivers and penalizing bad driver behavior. When cars are connected, the entire ownership and driving experience is more integrated and engaging.
To fulfill this vision, onboard systems need to do more than just compute. They also need to collect, collate, translate and share data instantly to enact what we call microservices.
Think of a driver heading for a bridge two miles away. The wind sensor on the bridge is recording the wind speed and direction. If this data is transmitted to the cloud, the connected car platform can recognize if that wind will impact handling and provide the driver with advance warning of the hazard and in plenty of time to take action.
Or think of how telematics information shared between vehicles, using a concept called swarm intelligence, can give drivers accurate, real-time information on road and weather conditions. You may not know a patch of black ice is stretched across the roadway ahead, but tire sensors connected to the onboard systems in the cars ahead will detect the loss of traction. With shared telematics and swarm intelligence, those vehicles could broadcast sensor data for others to consume and analyze, allowing your connected car to automatically adjust systems and reduce the risk of losing control. Changing gears or increasing traction, for example. In each case, connected car platforms gather and translate data — from devices with connectivity as diverse as 4G LTE or 3G/2G cellular, and low-power wide-area network technologies such as LoRa and Sigfox — to form insight that can then trigger hundreds of unseen but vital actions.
Connected car services are still an optional extra for many cars, but they are fast becoming a standard item, even in family sedans and hatchbacks.
Here at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, we recently worked with IAV, a leading automotive industry engineering consultancy to create a fully-functional proof of concept for testing the ways connected sensors from vehicles and infrastructure can optimize the driving experience — from real-time monitoring of weather and road conditions to warn against approaching hazards to checking to see if your garage is already occupied to collecting data about the state of the road surface for the relevant authorities. Connected car services can change how we drive, and keep us safer as a result.
But they're also like any other networked technology in that the more nodes that connect and share data, the more useful the entire system becomes. That's why analysts expect such big growth in this market and why companies are trying to simplify connected services development and deployment. A fully intelligent driving machine may not be here yet, but it's also closer than most of us think.

Play Every Town Coming To Chester On Sunday, October 23
posted Wednesday, October 19, 2022
PLAY EVERY TOWN is coming to Chester, VT on Sunday, October 23, at 4 pm. The concert will be held at the First Universalist Parish, 211 North Street in Chester, VT. Join us for Concert #17 of 251 252 Community Concerts for a Cooler Climate with pianist David Feurzeig. Admission is Free. Donations will be accepted to benefit Vermont350 www.350vermont.org.
In May composer-pianist David Feurzeig embarked on Play Every Town: 252 free concerts in each of Vermont's 252 towns to combat climate change through the power of community and music. With this project, David will become the first musician to perform in every Vermont municipality. He is traveling in his solar-charged electric vehicle throughout the state, offering free concerts to bring attention to the interrelated issues of climate and community, while bringing the joy of music to his audiences.
Feurzeig has given up international concert touring because he feels it is unsustainable given our climate challenges. Customized for each town, this concert will include its own unique Scarlatti keyboard sonata: Sonata no. 17 for this seventeenth concert in the project. Music of Bach, Vermont composer Eve Beglarian, Boston-based composer James Romeo, and other solo piano works will round out the program.
Feurzeig, a professor of music at UVM since 2008, specializes in genre-defying recitals that bring together music of an astonishing variety of musical styles, from ancient and classical to jazz, avant-garde, and popular traditions. These striking juxtapositions, peppered with informative and humorous commentary, create eye- and ear-opening programs that will change how you hear all kinds of music. According to David, the music can be serious, but there's no reason anyone should feel intimidated. If he doesn't get a laugh from the audience in the first two minutes, he gets worried!
Follow David on his journey on Instagram, find up-to-date events for your town via Facebook, or visit the website at PlayEveryTown.com.

Флаг муниципального образования город Ку́йбышев Куйбышевского муниципального района Новосибирской области Российской Федерации.

Флаг утверждён 28 июня 2005 года и внесён в Государственный геральдический регистр Российской Федерации с присвоением регистрационного номера 1993.

Описание
«Флаг города Куйбышева представляет собой прямоугольное красное полотнище с отношением ширины к длине 2:3, воспроизводящее в центре жёлтую фигуру идущего быка из герба города».

Символика флага
Современный город Куйбышев основан в 1722 году как военное укрепление Каинский Посад. В 1782 году приобретает статус уездного города Тобольского наместничества, с 1804 года — окружной город Томской губернии на Сибирском тракте, оживлённый торговый пункт. В 1935 году Каинск переименован в честь революционного деятеля В. В. Куйбышева, который в 1907—1909 годах находился здесь в ссылке.

Флаг Куйбышева разработан на основе герба города, за основу которого взят исторический герб окружного города Каинск. Первоначально герб Каинска, утверждённый в 1785 году, имел в зелёном поле золотого быка. В 1804 году герб города претерпел незначительные изменения — теперь золотой бык оказался в красном поле. Бык в гербе Каинска, расположенного в центре степной Барабы, указывал на успехи местного населения в скотоводстве.

Бык — символ силы, могущества, плодородия, мирного труда, терпения.

Жёлтый цвет (золото) символизирует богатство, справедливость, уважение, великодушие.

Красный цвет — символ храбрости, мужества, красоты.

Примечания


Sole Material -Rubber Color Family -Grey Upper Material -Mesh This pair of neutral running shoes is directly inspired by Puma's Complete Range. The decoupled and the midsole heel grooves allow for a smooth touchdown and the flexible and responsive forefoot encourages a smooth toe off. It is great for the runner who needs a shoe that offers minimal support, cushioning and durability without the high price tag.


Dawn, left, was a recent winner of our Jar-A-Day Giveaway at the Oliver Indoor Flea Market. She chose a jar of Jalapeno Jelly that Brenda presented to her on April 29, 2018.
As I have stated before, both George and I look at 2018 as being a year of definition for JamBusters! and what I mean by that is we are fine tuning our activities. I have already changed my weekly kitchen duties focusing mostly on refilling products that are taking off and restocking them when possible. We have also chosen to include a very small number of 'traditional' jams and jellies to reach those customers that prefer them over our savory options.
It was also during April when we decided to amp up our marketing with some paid advertising in a newspaper that services the Oliver area. The idea is to promote both JamBusters! and the Oliver Indoor Flea Market in a slightly higher profile manner using a traditional form of promotion. George designed the ad, which he enjoyed doing having not done much in the way of design work since we closed our newspaper business in July 2016.
The month also saw us vend at two different venues away from Oliver. It won't be as frequent for us to take JamBusters! on the road, but we do have a small selection of annual events we like to participate in and will continue to do so. It was also in April we ventured away from Oliver for the first time leaving our booth there open for business when we were gone. It basically allows us to be in two different places at the same time which is very new to us.
We get asked every now and then for something that would be considered a traditional jam or jelly. The main reason why we started JamBusters! with the focus on spicy, fruity and boozy products (although we did not have that slogan at the time) was to produce unusual spreads. We wanted to be considered an 'outside of the box' type product and we have most certainly accomplished that. So, to fill the gap within our existing product line we have introduced a few traditional jellies. At the moment we have just a Lime Jelly and a Blackberry Jelly (plus one known as Blackberry Butter Jelly – containing butter extract for additional flavour). There is room for a few more to be added.
Weekly advertising online has been effective for JamBusters! but we know we have to do some more in order to reach those who are not on social media. For George, the natural choice was print media. JamBusters! will be running a weekly print ad in a local newspaper throughout the summer months in hopes of pulling additional traffic into the Oliver Indoor Flea Market location. The promotion is a partnership with the Indoor Flea Market and cross-promotes the market as well. Our thought process is that whatever we do to promote ourselves will also benefit the venue we are promoting JamBusters! as being at. That's why we have always promoted the events we attend as if we are co-sponsoring them because we know more traffic for us means more traffic for all other vendors at the same event.
Another marketing tool we have been using since April is our Jar-A-Day Giveaway. What it is, quite simply, is a draw. Customers who buy product each day we vend at the Oliver Indoor Flea Market will be asked to enter their name in our draw. At the end of each vending day we pull a name and the winner receives one of our small jars of product of their choosing. It has started to catch on and so far, our winners have been either talking up JamBusters! or are becoming regular customers. We couldn't be happier with how this is turning out.
In April we attended two other vending events. On Saturday, April 14 we were at the Crafters & Vendors Market hosted in the Princeton Legion Hall in downtown Princeton. It was nice to be vending in our hometown and support was great. Attendance was a lot lower than most of us had hoped for but it was still a good vending day for us. In addition to JamBusters! I had my Sparkle By Bee! Hair silks on site and had a couple of customers for that. We were lucky enough to end up with an extra table and it gave us the room we needed to spread out and promote the hair silks.
On Sunday, April 22 we travelled to Merritt for our first-ever market event there. We have been at Lower Nicola, which is about ten minutes from Merritt, but we have never been able to find a date to be in this community. The event was a Home-Based Business Market Showcase and was in the Merritt Community Centre located virtually in the centre of the downtown core. We had a great location in the larger hall and the variety of vendors was impressive. However, attendance was low. JamBusters! did well regardless and we have booked another event here which will be in November.
While we are away vending elsewhere on a weekend, we have to keep our booth in Oliver open and manned due to some new regulations that have been enforced recently. We support the rules simply because we know they are meant to enhance the shopping experience for customers. Our first two dates away in April saw our JamBusters! booth remain open in Oliver. We did some business although we were not there and expect it to pick up once the advertising starts.
Our schedule is slowly filling. In addition to our regular Saturdays and Sundays in Oliver, we have another Princeton Legion event in early May and a first-time event in August. September is our busiest vending month with a few tentative dates outside of Oliver and December will have a few as well. There is no doubt that we are really defining our efforts with our vending business and are still enjoying it. For both George and I, we look forward to working together each weekend and having fun as we do it.

Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) designers need full control of their design framework to make sure that what they fabricate matches exactly how they designed it. In addition they need to be able to re-use and distribute their design work in a hierarchical framework that saves time and improves reliability.
IPKISS.eda inside L-Edit combines these stringent photonic design demands with the ease of use of a professional yet easy to use EDA environment.
Deployable to 3rd party design flows using the OpenAccess standards.
L-Edit's rich layout capabilities combined with the IPKISS library of parameterized photonic components and PDKs gives users the ability to drag and drop the photonic components into their layouts and immediately connect them through waveguides, while having full control over cross-section shapes, bends and trajectories.
Post-layout effects such as reflections and attenuation caused by waveguide crossings are taken into account. The design flow is enabled with DRC facilities to assure the quality of your design before submitting it to the fab.
The design of a 2x2 Optical Crossconnect.
An optical cross-connect (OXC) is a device used by telecommunications carriers to switch high-speed optical networks for broadcasting and multicasting.
In this example we develop a 2x2 switch. We show how easy it is to layout a photonics circuit, based on libraries of parameterized components. Controlling waveguide routes and shapes. Detecting crossings. Applying DRC.
The 1x2 Thermo-optic MZI switch: A 1x2 splitter splits the optical signal into the 2 arms of the MZI. The heater in one of the arms is steered by the electrical signals. The signals in the two arms are coupled into a 2x2 combiner and fed into the next stage.
Parameterized components are dragged and dropped from the library (the imec PDK).
Components like the thermo-optic MZI switch can be hierarchically constructed combining other basic building blocks such as the splitter, combiner, heater and waveguides.
Connectivity between the different ports is generated using L-Edit functionality.
Add electrical bond pads and wire them using L-Edit.
Because photonic IC designers need full control of their design framework to ensure that the IC they fabricate exactly matches their design, and they need to conquer the challenges of photonic circuits, Luceda Photonics created the IPKISS.eda design framework. This framework is built on the Tanner L-Edit layout editor which seamlessly interfaces to the Tanner Calibre® One physical verification suite.

Warren Buffett owns this EV stock. Should I buy it too?
Edward Sheldon, CFA | Saturday, 27th November, 2021 | More on: BYDD.F
Image source: The Motley Fool
Warren Buffett is widely regarded as the greatest stock market investor of all time. So, I like to keep an eye on his portfolio.
Looking at that portfolio today, it's interesting to see that Buffett has a very large position in an electric vehicle (EV) company. It's not Tesla. And it's not NIO. Instead, it's BYD (OTC:BYDD.F), an under-the-radar Chinese EV maker that has a listing in the US.
Should I follow him and buy BYD stock for my portfolio? Let's take a look.
BYD: the business
Founded in 1995, BYD is an automotive company that offers a broad range of internal combustion, hybrid, and battery-electric passenger vehicles. It also offers commercial vehicles such as trucks, vans, and buses. When it was founded back in the 1990s, it was originally focused on batteries. However, in 2003, it entered the automotive market.
Last year, it sold around 190,000 new-energy vehicles. That's not as many as Tesla sold (around 500,000). However, it's far more than Chinese rival NIO sold (around 44,000).
It's worth pointing out that Buffett has been invested in BYD for a long time. He first invested here back in 2008 on advice from his business partner Charlie Munger. This long-term approach has paid off. His original investment of around $230m in BYD is now worth over $9bn.
Could it be the Tesla of China?
BYD appears to be having a lot of success right now.
In October, three of its models were among China's five best-selling new-energy vehicles, according to Bloomberg. These were the Qin Plus DM-i, the Song DM, and the Qin Plus EV. The other two EVs that made the top five were the SAIC-GM Hongguang Mini EV and Tesla's Model Y.
Meanwhile, for the first three quarters of 2021, four BYD models were among the 15 best-selling new-energy vehicles in China (listed below), according to the China Passenger Association.
1. Hongguang Mini (SAIC-GM-Wuling)
2. Model 3 (Tesla)
3. Model Y (Tesla)
4. Han (BYD)
5. Qin Plus DM-i (BYD)
6. Li One (Li Auto)
7. BenBen EV (Changan)
8. Aion S (GAC Motor spin-off)
9. eQ (Chery)
10. Ora Black Cat (Great Wall Motor)
11. P7 (Xpeng)
12. Song DM (BYD)
13. Nezha V (Hozon Auto)
14. Clever (SAIC Roewe)
15. Qin Plus EV (BYD)
As for growth, BYD is putting up some impressive numbers at present.
In October, its new-energy vehicle sales were up 263% year on year to 80,003 units. By contrast, NIO saw a 27.5% dip in deliveries in October due to supply chain challenges.
Meanwhile, in the third quarter of 2021, its battery-electric sales jumped 67% and outpaced Tesla's sales for the first time since the end of 2019, according to the China Automotive Technology and Research Center.
Should I buy BYD stock?
There's certainly a lot to like about BYD, in my view.
For starters, revenue growth has been very strong in recent years. Between 2015 and 2020, revenue jumped nearly 100%. This year, analysts expect top-line growth of nearly 40%.
Secondly, unlike many other EV makers, BYD is already profitable. This reduces risk.
One concern I have right now, however, is the valuation. BYD shares have had an amazing run over the last two years (+800%) and as a result, the stock now has a market cap of around $130bn and a forward-looking P/E ratio of around 200. These are high figures.
Another issue for me is the low return on capital. Over the last five years, it has delivered an average return on capital of just 6.3%. I prefer to invest in highly profitable companies that earn a big return on their investments.
Given these issues, I'm going to leave this Buffett stock on my watchlist for now.
All things considered, I think there are better stocks to buy.
Like this one…
I'm sure you'll agree that's quite the statement from Motley Fool Co-Founder Tom Gardner.
But since our US analyst team first recommended shares in this unique tech stock back in 2016, the value has soared.
What's more, we firmly believe there's still plenty of upside in its future. In fact, even throughout the current coronavirus crisis, its performance has been beating Wall St expectations.

Pazz & Jop: The Dean's List
Reports of the album's death have been greatly exaggerated
by Robert Christgau
Illustration by Ashley Smestad Vélez
Having invented this poll twice — in 1971 on my way out the Voice's door and in revamped invitation-only form when I returned in 1974 — and run it till new owners fired me in 2006, I was proud to pitch in when newer owners invited me to write the theme essay for P&J's 2017 iteration, its 44th (or 45th). But when my apparently defunct old paper astonished and tickled me by finding funding for a 45th (or 46th) Pazz & Jop, I humbly declined the same request, for two reasons.
First was that women were so certain to dominate the results as never before that it was simple justice, not to mention optics, for women to dominate the commentary as well. But the second was almost as important, because Pazz & Jop is about criticism as well as music per se. Until 2006 I published full-time and edited some at the Voice and freelanced quite a bit too. But in 2019 my rockcrit career consists of a weekly Expert Witness album-brief column at Noisey plus a few scraps — my wife and I live mostly on Social Security and savings. I'm grateful to hold any rockcrit job at 76. But that job wouldn't cover our rent, and how critics young enough to be my grandchildren experience work that seldom rises to job-level is literally beyond my ken. What percentage of the reviewers I read make their nut as journalists? Are avocationals and hopefuls paid even ten bucks for their scrivening? Whoever holds forth in the lead spot should have more skin in the game.
Nonetheless, fans like me and you are lucky to have another Pazz & Jop for the same reason as always. Whatever its lacunae and limitations, however fucked and suborned its respondents, Pazz & Jop's multivenue, cross-demographic consensus reveals stuff about pop music's ever-evolving aesthetic profile that neither streaming-doctored sales charts nor self-branding Top 50s can. Only post-poll, for instance, do we really know exactly what kind of Year of the Woman it was. Although the record-shattering 25 women in the P&J Top 40 are joined by only 22 (and two halves) in the next 60, their dominance is undeniable, as their music addresses more angles on female empowerment, male privilege, male assholery, and female anxiety than anyone would otherwise know were there. But it also turns out that this year's politics aren't exclusively identity politics. Young ninth-place alt-rock guitar-bass-drums Parquet Courts embrace the déclassé term collective; old eleventh-place alt-rock guitar-bass-drums Superchunk contextualize their anti-Trump jabs with the Eighties mea culpa "Reagan Youth"; loudly male, loudly anti-sexist 35th-place Idles embrace immigrant punks and dis Eton thugs; 25th-place U.S. Girl Meg Remy saves her catchiest lefter-than-thou for, uh-oh, warmonger Barack Obama. Note as well that although runaway chart-toppers Kacey Musgraves and Janelle Monáe hail from country and funk, and only two of the thirteen women in my own Top 25 are alt-rockers, it was definitely an alt-rock in nothing like decline after all that engendered this Year of the Woman.
Pazz & Jop: So, Are Women Here Yet?
by Jessica Hopper
And now, before anybody accuses me of theme essay encroachment, I'll stop the poll-watching and proceed to what I really want to write about: the Dean's List, which old-timers may recall arranges all the albums I've rated A or A minus in a given year in order of preference. Posted on my website mid-January, the 2018 edition nabbed 83 of them. Until 2012 I went to the trouble of adding some singles, but by then I'd long been forcing it. As far back as Run-D.M.C. and Licensed to Ill, in fact, I've devoted almost all my professional ear time and pleasure listening to albums, a claim few if any working critics under 35 can make and not many would want to — although album reviews remain a staple of the trade, the song-as-meme and YouTube hit provide crucial fodder in a nonstop news cycle where content providers juice thrill-of-the-week aesthetics by posting and hence positing several thrills a day. In fact, it's long been theorized that the album format is doomed. Way back in 2003, Wired had me write 100 words (unpaid, naturally) about whether the album was "a dying art form." In 2018, as sales of both CDs and downloads dove, chatter about the format's imminent demise rattled on as usual.
Major labels being major labels, which among other bad things can mean Spotify stakeholders, some version of the death of the physical album could happen. But as someone whose professional specialty is finding A albums, I stand by what I told Wired a full fifth of the album's life span ago: "For as long as artists tour, they'll peddle song collections with the rest of the merch, and those collections will be conceived as artfully as the artists possibly can." This is even truer now because the computer giveth as the computer taketh away — quality home recording is now so cheap that making an album is hobby-level stuff not just for duffers but for the statistically inevitable complement of amateur artists whose music ain't no hobby, or shouldn't be. And compelled to tour though all now are, few professional bands are in it solely for the roar of the crowd. Writing songs is in their DNA, and if said songs are any good at all, recording them for posterity soon becomes irresistible.
So then it becomes my challenge to find the ones I think are worth my time and yours. And though it's strange writing rock criticism in isolation, unnourished by conversation with smart fans or professional obsessives, it remains rewarding or I'd quit. In July it will be fifty years since I started grading records, and many still don't grok the admixtures of taste and judgment, pleasure and analysis involved. For me, grades are objective reports on subjective responses that always meld judgment and pleasure; as I've told hundreds of young writers, "First you figure out what you really like, then you figure out the real reason you like it." So if what you like is eighth-place Low, that's your privilege — the band has many fans whose intelligence and integrity I don't doubt. But after four or five passes, I enjoy Double Negative even less than their 1999 Christmas ("beats committing suicide, if that's your holiday fancy"), and for now let's leave our differences at that. I have too much Dean's List to pump to waste space on gripes.
The 83-album 2018 Dean's List shares seventeen albums with the Pazz & Jop Top 40, and although I A-list pretty much the same proportion of women as the P&J Top 100, fewer women make my Top 40. The inevitability that the female artists I enjoy and admire aren't always those anointed by Pazz & Jop traces in this case to a 76-year-old's ingrained aesthetic differences from an electorate that came of age not just post-Fifties but post-Sixties if not post-Nineties. I prefer the blues-based to the classically informed prog tendency the rise of which in 21st-century alt-rock I've long lamented, and have been saying "no thanks" to mopey depressives since Tim Buckley and Nick Drake. Snail Mail, Lucy Dacus, Boygenius, or for that matter Earl Sweatshirt? I tried, hard, but they never did it for me, and however crippling this spiritual limitation may be, I still have to start with what I actually like, including female alternatives I'd connect to girl-group, a pre-Beatles tendency stupidly dismissed by sexist rockers and male chauvinist folkies alike. Sweetness as power, call it; nice girls finishing as close to first as they can. In 2018, girl-group surfaced in Riton and Kah-Lo, where a 25-year-old Nigerian-American rapper bridges those two lands via a male Brit techno vet's inventions and appropriations; in the nice-to-meetcha hooks and stealth romances of Atlanta rapper Bali Baby's pop-seeking Baylor Swift; in the shy sexual sallies and halting moral qualms of Frankie Cosmos's Greta Kline; and most explicitly in the sour harmonies and tricky love quests of Madrid-based Hinds' shamefully neglected (zero mentions!) I Don't Run.
Pazz & Jop: This Is Black Genius?
by Tirhakah Love
I could detail the African music I noticed and Pazz & Jop didn't, but the pickings are getting thinner (try Imarhan's Saharan Temet). I could dis SoundCloud rap while pumping a conscious hip-hop that seemed a mite tired beyond the now-indie Lupe Fiasco, but having been alerted to Saba's felt, brainy Care for Me by its 55th-place P&J finish, I'll decline that option too. After all, the biggest chasm between me and the electorate is that I'm twice the age of half of it. And as anyone who reads me has noticed, I do like to go on about the strange truth that what began circa 1955 as teen music has turned into old people's music like there's never been before.
This spin of the wheel has unloosed too much spatter to map here. What it comes down to, however, is simple — people over 50 are recording unprecedented albums that people under 30 don't have the heart, savvy, or time to enjoy, and although many P&J voters are old enough to tune in, most are either too avocational or too busy with their beat to pay it the mind it deserves. True, John Prine's creaky provisional farewell finished 18th, Tracey Thorn's matter-of-fact maturity meditation 30th, Bettye LaVette's deadeye Dylan canoneering 50th, and long-lost genius Amy Rigby's undiminished return 79th. I dug all these records, ranking LaVette's seventysomething double whammy third. I also pumped 81-year-old Elza Soares's second samba postmodernization, the title of which translates "God Is Woman," and 75-year-old Maria Muldaur's Blue Lu Barker tribute, as potent vocally and instrumentally as anything in her sprawling catalogue. And I note too that 85-year-old Willie Nelson's Last Man Standing, by my reckoning the second full A of his ninth decade (try 2014's December Day), finished just below 100. But that still leaves guys I need to tell you about.
I say guys because P&J's Year of the Woman definitely extended to seniors — older women like Meshell Ndegeocello, Neneh Cherry, and Marianne Faithfull were richly honored too, with only Soares lost in the hoo-hah. But Paul Simon recasting old songs he thought needed more work at 76, Wreckless Eric squeezing out his best solo album in decades at 64, Youssou N'Dour ceding his mortality some legroom at 59, Irish subcult hero Jinx Lennon figuring out parenthood at 54? Those garnered two P&J mentions all told. Moreover, guys got way better than that — three middle-aged men, two with sustaining if sublucrative music careers and one out of the blue despite a long bar-band/folk-festival history and quite the outside job. In 2018, all three released albums I hope male and female critics of all ages vouchsafe a stream or two. John Kruth is a master guitarist and the author of three ace music biographies who after two albums set in his wife's native Croatia hooked up with an Italian band to cut an American album called Forever Ago, which goes places. Hard-strumming Ed Hamell recorded Night Guy at the Apocalypse: Profiles of a Rushing Midnight on his phone while pursuing one of those never-ending tours — unyieldingly hilarious tales of brutally righteous mayhem that cosseted and complemented my political rage as nothing saner could. And then there are these Rich Krueger albums.
These two discs — and they are discs, handsomely packaged too — wouldn't exist if Krueger hadn't quit music in 1998 and spent a decade becoming a neonatologist, which means an MD specializing in difficult births. It is his medical income that enabled him to go back to the songs he'd abandoned decades ago and mix in the songs I doubt he stopped writing even when he was publishing all those journal articles. But it's his quavering, compassionate, observant, imaginative, sometimes overstuffed, always eloquent songwriting that his crack bands are there to put across, as they do, unfailingly. It would be asinine to let this doubleheader from nowhere pass because I don't see how he can pull a third album off anytime soon. Krueger's is the kind of miracle that keeps me checking out thousands of albums a year so I can grade a couple hundred for posterity.
And by the way, so is the album of perfectly sequenced rock- and techno-tinged Monk covers I made my number two — and that nobody else voted for even though Miles Okazaki's six-volume complete-Monk solo-guitar snoozefest got 35 points. Mast is the artist, Thelonious Sphere Monk the title. I downloaded one and then burned it, and many houseguests have thanked me for playing it. Another reason to do the job. There'll always be more is my theory.

Introducing A New Oris Aquis LE To Save The Wadden Sea
Four + One Raúl de Molina Has Changed His Mind About Big Watches
HODINKEE Radio Inside Our Dream Watch Designs
The "Dat Watt" Limited Edition borrows the local name for "Wadden Sea" in a low German dialect.
Cole Pennington
One of Oris' operating mantras is "Change for the Better." The brand does this through focused partnerships and the production of limited-edition watches that generate money for a chosen cause. With the Dat Watt Limited Edition, Oris is seeking to do its part in the conservation of the Wadden Sea, the world's largest tidal system and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Given the aquatic connection, Oris has re-jiggered the brand's dive watch platform, the Aquis, into a model that uses the pointer date function to track the lunar cycle and, in turn, tidal flows. Located above The Netherlands, the Wadden Sea is the largest area of intertidal sand and mud flats on the globe, making the watch's function follow its mission closely.
I wasn't familiar with the Wadden Sea prior to learning of this Oris collaboration, and I suspect many readers in the United States are in the same boat. So what the story behind Oris producing a watch in its honor?
The watch was developed with Bernard Baerends, the executive secretary and head of the Common Wadden Sea Secretariat, a Netherlands-based organization. Baerends has spent his career looking after the Wadden Sea; conservation efforts are a joint mission that Germany, Denmark, and The Netherlands all take part in. The Wadden Sea tidal flats are home to 10,000 species and an important stopover for roughly 10 to 12 million migratory birds a year. But the area is under threat from port construction, dredging, mining, pollution of shipping byproduct, and the introduction of invasive species from foreign ships draining their ballast tanks.
Oris approached the Common Wadden Sea Secretariat about a partnership, but the brand had to undergo a sustainability evaluation before the solidifying the partnership. The evaluation included looking at past success with organizations in the conservation space. After successful vetting, Oris and the Common Wadden Sea Secretariat committed to a three-year deal complete with events. The first step in the partnership is the watch you see today. "Dat Watt" is low german for "The Wadden Sea," hence the name of the limited edition.
The pointer date functionality of the Oris 761 caliber inside has been extended to allow wearers to track the tide based on the lunar cycle. A chart is printed inside the concentric ring where the date is displayed. Once you set the pointer date to the 29.5-day lunar cycle, you can read a chart to determine the expected maximum and minimum tides.
Oris will produce 2009 examples of the watch, nodding to the year the Wadden Sea became a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Ezkio-Itsaso  (formerly in Spanish, Ezquioga-Ichaso) is a municipality in the province of Gipuzkoa, in the autonomous community of Basque Country, in northern Spain.

It was founded in 1965 by the fusion of the municipalities of Ezkio and Itsaso. In December 2016 the Regional Council of Gipuzkoa tried to split Ezkio-Itsaso into two independent municipalities. However, this was refused by Spanish central government and finally dismissed by court decisions (judgments of 09/07/2018 and 09/20/2019 of the TSJ Madrid).

Ezkio was renowned in the 1930s for the apparitions of the Virgin Mary even though the Catholic Church has not authenticated them.

There is an advanced project to build an AVE high-speed train station in Ezkio-Itsaso that would become an important travel hub connecting the Basque Y to Navarre.
