The software is regularly tested on Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari. Ideal Landlord pages are built to be responsive and we test with multiple screen sizes including tablets and smart phones. For best results use the latest version of a browser. These browser updates are readily available for free by logging into the browser main page (landing page) and checking for updates. Also it is helpful to clear the cache history for download, browsing, images and temp files. This will speed up the responsiveness of your browser window and should be done weekly.
Automating rent collection is easy. It requires that you get approved for a merchant account. You can set up as many merchant accounts as you have need as long as each one has a different settlement account (business bank account) Ideal Landlord uses Blue Pay to process rents. The tenant makes the rent payment in the tenant portal. We will provide instructions for you to send to your tenants . The process allows the tenant to register with Blue Pay. Then your tenant can enter bank account(s) and or credit card information which is transferred to the Processor for storage. With those two tasks done, all the tenant has to do is log in and make the payment when it is due. Ideal Landlord never takes constructive receipt of any rent payments. They go directly from the Tenant's bank account into the settlement account (bank account) which you have to set up.
The merchant account application is built into the software and you will find it under settings. Fill out the data and attach requested documents. Click submit and your approval will take from 4 to 24 hours. If you need help, contact customer service and someone will be happy to answer your questions or get on a joint meeting to help you fill out the application. You will be asked to provide a copy of a voided check which has your name and address on it. You may also need to provide other documentation based on the size of your portfolio.
Once approved a secure connection to the processor is added to your subscription account. You can now add the merchant account you wish to use for each lease to manage rent collection . That step is already built in and takes only seconds to do. If you have more that one merchant account, rent will go into the account you choose for each lease. Automated rent can be paid through the tenant portal, or by phone at customer service. This allows all tenants, whether they have computers or not, to use automated rent collection.
CAN I GET REPORTS EXPORTED OR PRINTED?
Yes there are accounting reports that report income and expenses in several ways. There are also performance reports. The reports can be printed in a report format or downloaded in an spreadsheet file format. You can see your data by property or unit or portfolio. You can also filter for date ranges. There is a built in schedule E for US taxpayers. Coming soon you will be able to print out 1099's for vendor payments.
I DO NOT LIVE IN THE US. CAN I USE THIS SOFTWARE IF I RESIDE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY?
Yes, most of the Ideal Landlord features, including rent collection services, are now available in other countries. We have a list of countries in which we can provide automated rent collection below. If your country is not listed you can still use the software and hand enter rents collected. Also please contact customer service to request that your country be added for rent collection service . You are able to choose your currency in the settings area under currency table. We have developed the software so that if you need to add vat or other taxes to rent charges you can do so. For the present time tenant screening is only available through the software in the US however. Ideal Landlord is working on getting tenant screening capability in other countries through our current service provider. If you sign up for updates and news you will get updates about which countries get tenant screening as it is added. For now, there is no translation available unless you set your browser to translate for you. Some browser translations are better than others so test to find the best browser to use if you or your tenants need translation.
Ideal Landlord has robust accounting software built in. We use a double entry GAAP system(Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) . If you automate your rents, all rents and rental related income accounting is automated. That means when a tenant makes a payment through the tenant portal, the system does your accounting automatically. Expenses are to be entered into the general super ledger which assigns the item to a property and even a unit which will also appear in your property and unit level reports. Unless you are committed to use a different type of system, we have you covered for accounting. Expenses that are built into the software are also automatically accounted for, like tenant screening and your software charges.
WHAT IS A WEBFLYER AND HOW DO I POST IT?
A webflyer is used to advertise your property to sites that show rental properties, when a property is about to be vacated or is vacant. The listings in the US go out to over 47 URLs when you click a button to activate. Our webflyers can also be used for properties you wish to sell and the link for those webflyers goes to for sale property sights. Webflyers are created automatically when you add details to your properties and units in the software. If you fill out the details for utilities and amenities, those go automatically into your webflyer. If you have uploaded photos of the property and each unit, if it is a multiple unit property, those photos transfer over to your webflyer for each unit, so you can choose which ones you wish to use. You can also add video or your property and use You Tube to publish then add the URL to your webflyer. Visitors to your webflyer will be able to see that video by clicking the URL When you are finished with the data part of the webflyer, and you have added the contact information and date available etc, you only need to click a button to activate it. When you have a qualified tenant just click the button to deactivate the webflyer.
TELL ME ABOUT THE FREE TRIAL.
Ideal Landlord offers a free trial for you to use for 14 days. In that time you can learn to use the software, add a few properties, and add leases. You should not invite tenants when you add leases though. You can do that when you start the subscription. While you are on a free trial you can use the ledger, the webflyers, and enter data.

Charles Haddon (Ou Est Le Swimming Pool) interview 2010
News of Charles's death at the Pukkelpop Festival in Belgium has just broken as I write this. I was lucky enough to interview him for the band's first Australian tour due to take place in October. Despite much of the interview's irrelevance in terms of future activity - I wanted to share the results of one of Charles's last promo engagements for fans who would obviously be shocked, as I am, by the loss of a such a young talent who had so much potential.
Charles Haddon
If you like your electro-pop big and brassy with '80s-centric instant hooks, Ou Est Le Swimming Pool (translated as: Where Is The Swimming Pool?) won't have escaped your radar. Although emerging from the same area of London that produced Pet Shop Boys, this is a mere coincidence for the band, who despite sharing a musical kinship with the Pets', claim no formal knowledge of them. Ou Est Le Swimming Pool's massively popular debut single Dance The Way I Feel, along with a tour opening for La Roux, has earned them a spot on this years Parklife festival alongside dance heavy weights Dan Black, Bag Raiders, Groove Armada and Missy Elliott to name a few.
The band's mouthpiece, Charles Haddon along with his splendid bouffant of hair, is in a talkative mood on the eve of his band's first visit. What are we in for though, I wonder after a trawl through group's online video diary, which shows a group of lads fully in touch with their mischievous sides? "You've gotta do it haven't you" Charles laughs, "There's so many bands around who take it all very seriously, but we've already got up to a fair bit of trouble." Now that Oasis have split the position of 'showing off and being arrogant' is vacant, so perhaps they're the ones fill it? "There are a lot of record companies who won't touch a band who have any kind of reputation for bad behaviour, they just want somebody who's going to turn up and stand on stage and play and then go back to their hotel room and eat fruit." Charles jokes, "But we're actually very proud that we can at least enjoy ourselves as well as get the work done."
It's been just over a year since Ou Est Le Swimming Pool formed in Camden, (North London). Charles recalls the early days of the band and how it could've been a totally different sound that launched them. "Me and Joe (Hutchinson) were doing completely different music in the start. Joe was right into hip hop for example". Charles explains, "He and I were sharing a flat and had all these music projects happening – one of those became Ou Est Le Swimming Pool – so when that started to take off, we dropped all the other stuff we were doing and focused on this." Not a bad move either, the bands debut single, Dance The Way I Feel enjoyed a thorough remixing by Armand Van Helden and instantly put it's creators on the map. Charles says of the bands overnight success on the back of the debut single; "I get that it can be hard to follow up a first rush like that one, but I believe we have plenty of great music." He says, "I mean Dance The Way I Feel was chosen by the record label to be released in Australia ahead of our tour, but I think we have a pretty solid bunch of songs easily as good as that. I'm pretty confident we can that follow up for sure."
Charles claims he knew very early on he wanted to pursue music as a career. He continues, "At the age of about 13 I realised that I wanted to do music, and unfortunately my school work was crippled by that decision." He laughs, "I was actually a scholar when I was younger, but then I ended up getting expelled because I was bunking off all the time. It was good in a way though because I immediately moved to London and started making things happen, wasting no time really." Last year the band embarked on their first tour as opening act for La Roux. It allowed them, as Charles points out, a chance to sharpen up their sound for the inevitable headline shows. "Yeah, La Roux gave us that important live exposure, and allowed us to work out a strong set list of what to actually play in our shows - because we've got about 40 songs written for the first album - and it's hard to pick just seven or eight. I'd leave home thinking we had a perfect set list, but after the first night we ended up changing, like three, so it was a great learning curve for us."
Similar to La Roux, Ou Est Le Swimming Pool have been saddled with the typical '80s revival tag, but Charles reckons working with vintage equipment, "It's all we could afford", has much more to do with their sound than revivalism. "I'm not much of an '80s fan, the only reason we sound the way we do is because our synths are old 808s and our drum machine which we were using, initially came from the '80s. The hip hop stuff that Joe and I were into didn't work at with the equipment we were using so we altered our sound to fit with what we had to work with." On the subject of comparisons, he continues. "When we started we were compared to Depeche Mode and Pet Shop Boys but the only Pet Shop Boys song I knew was Go West because it had been on an advert in England for custard, so I had a pretty skewed idea about what people were hearing in our music." He laughs.
Like so many people of his generation, Charles' earliest musical love was the pop star's pop star; take a bow, the king. "Michael Jackson's History, was the first album I had as a kid," Charles says proudly."I remember my family were moving house and we didn't have anywhere to live for a couple of weeks so we just drove around England, going to sea side towns and stuff, and I can't remember how old I was but I think I cried if we didn't listen to Michael Jackson and my poor parents must have hated him by the end of that trip, because it was two solid weeks of the best of Michael Jackson." They've been wrongly tagged '80s revival, had a false start as a hip hop band and one of them has Jacko fixation, but what do Ou Est Le Swimming Pool all agree can go on the all important tour bus stereo?
"We all have one major love which is a '70s reggae band called Culture – they are absolutely ridiculous, I mean it's just really chilled out songs about smoking pot." Charles exclaims "After seven hours in our van on the road, we need something to calm us down otherwise everyone tends to get a bit agitated." Would Michael Jackson's History revisited cause a few tempers to rise, I wonder? "I think that album was thrown out by my parents actually, or maybe even driven over a few times." Charles smiles, "Thanks for reminding me, now I'm gonna have to get a new one."
As a draw card at this year's Parklife festival, I ask who Charles and his band are most keen on whooping it up with. "I'm quite looking forward to Dan Black. We've played several gigs with him before, but we haven't seen him for a while and he's going really well now. He's such a nice guy too, he even let us get up on stage and dance with him a couple of times." Charles continues, "And, now I've said this before, but I'm definitely going to be best friends with Missy Elliott… She doesn't know it yet but by the time that festival finishes, no by day two, she's going to love us and I reckon we're going to be riding in her limo and her private jet." He reasons, "Plus she's going to pay for everything so we can just go nuts." Charles laughs adding, "If there's one thing we've got as a band its enough confidence and cockiness to pull this off!"
I think this interview shows clearly that Charles had a fun loving, boisterous side to him. It's so sad that his darker side was the stronger. A lovely guy who leaves a short-lived but exciting legacy in the dance music scene.

Skye Edwards (Morcheeba) interview (2010)
FIZZY LOGIC
After fading interest in the UK's trip-hop explosion in the '90s, Morcheeba, one of the scene's biggest success stories split from their lead singer Skye Edwards in 2003. The band's core, brothers Ross and Paul Godfrey, carried on into the '00s with a revolving door of replacements only to flounder with two underachieving non-Skye albums. It seems they underestimated the popularity of Edwards among fans, but now seven years on, the original line-up are back together with a return-to-form new album to boot. Blood Like Lemonade, has the dark and dreamy quality of the bands' previous best works and Skye, over the phone in pre-launch mode, feels Morcheeba may have their most definitive set of songs to date.
"Well it does feel that way to me," She asserts, "I mean, I do love Big Calm and Who Can You Trust… While Fragments Of Freedom, I do like fragments of, but with this one I am really happy with every song on there so it could well be our ultimate record." After a fleeting mainstream cross-over, the decision was made to return to the sound fans early on identified with on the reunion album. "The first song we wrote together after deciding to make another album was Crimson, which I'm really proud of." Skye beams, "I think it's one of our darkest moments in Morcheeba so far." Listening to Blood Like Lemonade, it's clear that the nonsense bubblegum pop of Rome Wasn't Built In A Day, is long gone. Back in 2000, that song earned Morcheeba its greatest success in terms of sales, while simultaneously pissing off their core fanbase. "With Rome, basically we wanted to get on the radio," Skye admits, sounding a little relieved to put some context into the band's biggest commercial hit, and move away from trip-hop. "We wanted to have a song I guess that people could wave their arms around to at the shows, but at the time I really wasn't very happy about it." She adds, "It's like the way R.E.M. is about Shiny Happy People I think" Skye laughs, "They kind of buried that song, but for us when we go out and play Rome and people sing along to every word of it, I kind of get why you have to make your peace with these things."
Edwards' early dissatisfaction with the song was founded in what she saw as a step backwards personally. "It took me to a different place vocally - at least as far as what I'd done in Morcheeba goes." Pre-Morcheeba, Skye was as a backing vocalist in a funk/pop covers band – something she wasn't keen to re-visit as a performer. "I used to have to sing in this high girly pitch which I wasn't terribly comfortable doing, so when Morcheeba came along it was a relief to be able to use my natural lower register and make less happy-clappy sort of stuff."
Early singles, Trigger Hippie and Tape Loop, made Morcheeba strong contenders in the mid-'90s UK trip-hop scene. Skye even had a 'hangin' with Martina Topley-Bird in the smoking section' vibe. She was a little greener than her peers, but when the second album Big Calm arrived in 1998, Edwards and Morcheeba managed to out-perform most other artists in their genre. It was then the brothers decided to change tact and maximize on the band's commercial clout. 2000's Fragments of Freedom enjoyed a rapid rise in the charts both in the UK and Australia, only to be followed by an equally rapid fall. Skye looks back at their break-out album and its follow-up, Charango. "The songs on Fragments are obviously quite different to anything else we did." She reasons, "The best thing I can say now is that it's a very well produced and well put together record, but I think you can tell Charango sounds like a much more natural follow up to Big Calm." The 2002 album Charango was Skye's last with the Godfrey brothers before now. It hinted at a slinkier, more direct sound and won back a lot of the group's fans who'd baulked at Fragments, yet the group was on thin ice within their ranks and parted ways the following year. When asked if the singer missed working with the Godfrey brothers, she's quick to respond.
"No not really." Skye pauses before she allows a giggle to escape, "It was like the end of a relationship, and you move on and get the new boyfriend – which was, in my case, a new producer. I really enjoyed doing my solo stuff and writing my own lyrics, so I didn't miss them, no." Skye released two original albums between '06 and '09 while Morcheeba carried on with various part-time lead singers. Both parties achieved only limited success. During the separation, Edwards claims she wasn't at all keen on hearing her replacements. "No, it was kind of like seeing your ex-husband with his new girlfriend." She laughs, "I didn't really want to know, however I did hear some of (2008 album) Dive Deep because they actually e-mailed me and asked if I'd like to sing on a couple of the songs, but it just felt a little bit weird." Skye adds, "I won't say I was trying to avoid them altogether but I wasn't exactly seeking them out either."
It seems as if fans may have played a role in getting Skye back with the band, she recalls. "I was getting messages on mySpace from people saying they'd gone to see Morcheeba live and that it wasn't the same without me, which was kind of nice." A chance meeting with Ross after seven years apart developed naturally into a 'why not give it one more go' conversation. Within two months of that agreement Morcheeba had written their first album with Skye since 2002. "Now here we are back again, doing the more down tempo stuff we were known for and with a better range of songs I think." Skye interjects, "It feels like now when we go to do our live shows, we've got a nice cross section of upbeat tracks and songs to get stoned to as well." Edwards speaks emphatically about singing the new, meatier subject matter on Blood Like Lemonade live.
"We haven't done that many shows for this album yet – we're still waiting until the tour kicks off properly - but at the moment I absolutely love singing Crimson. The woman in the song is really psychotic, she tries to kill her married lover by running him off the road, but it's quite fun to be her voice." Skye continues, "There are actually a few songs on this album which would probably qualify it as a sort of 'serial killer record'." She laughs, "You've got Recipe For Disaster, where the woman kills her boyfriend because he's always drunk, and Blood Like Lemonade which is about a vigilante priest who drinks the blood of his victims." I ask Skye if she realises that she's made a Nick Cave album, "Well if Nick Cave was singing Blood Like Lemonade, I think the dark themes would be really obvious, but because it's my gentle vocals on there you're not really going to notice it so much." Skye concludes, laughing. "I can get away with all this carnage because I sound so polite, you see."

Miami Horror interview (2010)
Miami Horror mastermind Benjamin Plant's sideline in production (Gameboy/Gamegirl) and continual on-point remixes (Faker, Midnight Juggernauts, Stardust) pushed the Melbourne based artists profile up to guaranteed go-to guy for hit potential. Yet in the fickle dance music world he has been careful to stay one step ahead of the fads, and characteristically took his sweet time building up his own cannon of songs before choosing that all important right moment to unleash Miami Horror – the band and a debut album, Illumination. A widespread club compilation fixture and overseas interest were already in place even before he dropped the monster singles; Don't Be On With Her and Sometimes.
Serious introductions over, and seeing as Robert Plant falls within the realm of surprising influences for the Miami Horror, it seems fitting to start with Ben's curious name-sake. "I do appreciate the 'Plant and Led Zeppelin its true." Ben begins, "Most of my tastes are prog rock, or prog anything really." "Actually I should tell you, the Plant side of my family have this gene that makes everybody turn out exactly the same." He laughs. "I was recently looking at these old photos of my grandfather and he looked exactly like my father does now, and so I kind of know what I'll look like already when I'm older." What, I press on, does the future hold for Ben in the looks department? "Well much like Robert Plant, the men in my family don't age well at all." He sighs. His Miami Horror project so far has produced naught but blistering techno anthems. So just what is Ben hearing in these big-haired dinosaurs that most of us aren't? "I like that those bands never had conventional song structure. They always had these big elaborate parts that would only occur one time and then you'd have a second, and a third completely different build-up. Those bands never repeated themselves in their songs."
Talk of prog bands and unlikely links to techno turns to German rave act Scooter and his abhorrent cover of Supertramp's Logical Song. Ben reveals, "We actually covered that as well for Triple J's Like A Version, but I was against the idea at first because of Scooter's version. I felt it was kind spoiled for good, but in the end we just tried to keep it nice and simple… and nothing like Scooter." Don't expect to Miami Horror's Supertramp homage in their live set though – instead they've opted for the Manfred Mann classic Blinded By The Light to wrap up on. "I think my voice is better suited to that one and besides there's just something magical about it." Ben laughs.
After a discussing Miami Horror's blinding live set last year at the Five Burroughs Festival, Ben describes how his studio creations needed a full re-jig for a full band if the songs were going to work in concert. "The music was so programmed on my EP (Bravado) and it just seemed really retarded to try and play like that as live as a band so when it came to recording this album, we decided to write in a way that would suit a band more. It just wouldn't have made sense to do it any other way." The development of Miami Horror as a group began after Ben's part-time musical partnerships grew into crucial collaborations. He explains. "Josh (Moriarty - guitar) wrote Don't Be On With Her and Dan (Whitechurch - keys) wrote the lyrics for Sometimes, and so basically I went from doing DJ sets in bad clubs to writing with those guys and finally getting a full time drummer, in the process becoming an actual band. It's very much a collaborative effort all the way now." Many of the words on Illumination were written by the band because of Ben's detachment as the tireless studio boffin, he clams. "Literally for like 12 hours a day over the last year I've been in the studio, and when I'm not doing that we're touring, so I didn't exactly have a lot to say I guess. I wasn't so much as reading a book during the time."
Miami Horror's name has been bandied around for the best part of three years. But early top rated remixes, including Faker's This Heart Attack and Tegan and Sarah's Walking With A Ghost, and an original debut EP, have only now given way to a long-time-coming album. Ben discusses. "Some stuff has been hanging around for about six years waiting for me to finish the album, but they've gone through many changes along the way. I think a lot has been made of how long this has taken to finish, but over half of it was written in the last 12 months or so."
Although his debut album was still a long way off, it hadn't marred Ben's strong support over the past year. Tours with Lily Allen and festival billings (in the 'big words' section) at Splendour, Groovin' The Moo and Good Vibrations landed at his feet. All that's left to do now for Miami Horror is keep riding the wave, surely? :"Well, I feel like I can relax a bit now it's (Illumination) finished, but we're heading off to the US on the 24th (August) so I'm sure that prove to be a bit of a distraction." He continues, "It's kind of a catch up at this stage, because although the album's still new I'm already into a bunch of different stuff." Ben adds, "I'm interested in touring the band internationally quite a bit because I think we have a lot of overseas influences. I purposely didn't want us to sound too Australian, but rather something else that I won't name…" He cackles mysteriously, "It was a case of if it doesn't work here, then maybe we would be big in Europe or at least be able to tour there if it completely stiffs in Australia."
MIAMI HORROR - Sometimes: video
Jason Kingshott (Glide) interview (2010)
FLYING TOO HIGH
When Sydney band Glide called it a day in 2000, it was in the most sombre of situations. Their last concert together was at a wake for the friends and family of their singer, William Arthur, who died suddenly and mysteriously towards the end of '99. His death at 34 spelled Glide's end after a ten year run as one of Australia's most endearing shoe-gaze acts but now another decade has passed, the band are on a timely mission to remind us what we lost in Arthur - a songwriter of great stead. Glide's complete and much sort after catalogue is to be reissued through iTunes, coinciding with a two date live performance, which will see Youth Group's Toby Martin – a long time fan – step into Arthur's shoes. He will be joined by the surviving Glide line-up, bassist Marc Lynch, guitarists Andy Kelly and Tim Scott and drummer Jason Kingshott in celebration of William's work at the East Brunswick Club. I catch up with Jason Kingshott today as preparations mount and the buzz builds for what promises to be a very memorable night.
"I think the early to mid '90s was a pretty exciting time for music, especially in Australia." Jason begins, "That said, I always though Glide had a very international sound. We had a lot of fans in New Zealand and England and the overseas influences were strong in our music, and in a way I think our potential wasn't really picked up on at the time because we weren't really 'typically Australian'. I think we were up there with our contemporaries though." Many agreed, and Glide, although never reaching mainstream success, bashed out a solid underground niche for themselves alongside the likes of Clouds and Smudge. Their breakthrough came when two overseas contemporaries at their peak, Blur and Ride, requested Glide as a support on their respective Aussie tours. A chance to meet their musical idols and even match them in concert was too good to pass up, Jason recalls. "You don't get cocky about it, but we thought it makes sense that those bands would want our band to open for them. It wasn't intimidating because we felt we had a kinship with them and when it came to performing, we also had that wall of noise thing going on and were just as able to fill those big venues with our own sound too."
After stumbling upon internet forums discussing Glide, many fans up til now have seemingly been swapping the bands rarities in mp3 format. Actual CD reissues were never really discussed, Jason explains, as Glide's complete recordings are finally available in digital glory. "I just think iTunes is a more immediate way for people to get hold of the music, and a lot of our older fans will already have the CDs so there wouldn't be any need for physical releases. Also doing it this way means people can fill the gaps in their collection and get songs that were previously only out on B-sides or EPs." With just two reunion shows and Glide's reissues on iTunes only, it all seems a little understated. Perhaps as Jason pointed out their appeal was quite marginal in Australia and a full fledge re-emergence would create confusion. A small backlash has inevitably occurred, but it's difficult to fault Glide's reasoning. Jason responds, "When the press release first came out there were some people saying, it's wrong and this sends the wrong message or whatever but I honestly don't care about that." He ensures, "It (Glide) was a big part of our lives and also why not celebrate William's skill as an artist. Further more we have the full support of his family for these shows so I am completely at peace with our decision to go through with this because we're doing it for the right reasons."
I recall The Triffids reunion/tribute shows back in early '09 as Jason speaks, and the addition of Toby Martin as one of the late David McComb's stand-ins. As a long time fan of Glide, Martin once again is set to re-visit his from-fan-to-conduit role. Kingshott says on how Toby came to be involved. "We were already acquainted through friends in the music community, but the turning point came after I had a conversation with Andy a few months ago along the lines of wouldn't it be great to play together again and get Toby to front it." He exclaims, "Being that its 20 years since we started the band, and ten since we performed William's tribute, something just clicked and Andy actually told me he'd been thinking about the exact same thing." He adds, "The fact that we both had been thinking it suddenly meant it could be tangible and before we knew it the whole thing started to come together. Plus it turned out Toby was a big fan of William's music."
Kingshott on his Glide band mates, believes making music was the glue in their friendships. He further describes. "Andy and I still would get together for drinks and so forth but there was always that other side to our friendship not really being indulged - making music – and it was pretty hard to ignore, so when things started coming together with Toby we already knew we could see it through properly." Jason continues, "Toby has been so committed too, and he can even get those bizarre chords that William came up with. Everyone's been playing so well in rehearsals but even though it's harder for Toby because he's following an existing blueprint in a way, he really gets it."
The man whose untimely death all this is in response to, William Arthur must have had quite an impact on his band mates. To revisit all of his work and relive music they made together would surely carry with it a painful twinge for a lost mate. Jason contemplates. "It is very bizarre looking back at some songs I had shivers down my spine to be honest, particularly because they evoke so many memories for me. It definitely affects the senses." He adds, "You have to step back from yourself sometimes, which is kind of how I remember William in a way. In the early days we all loved a drink and many an after party would go on into the wee hours in these indie clubs in Sydney and Melbourne and William would always be there just taking it all in." Rumoured to be somewhat anti-social, Arthur was instead all about moderation. Jason continues, "Contrary to the belief that he would retire to his hotel room after shows, don his smoking jacket and take in a little Norman Mailer," Laughs, "William was human and needed to blow off steam as much as any of us, but he was a very creative and intellectual guy, you know, he just didn't like to dance."
Seeing as Glide are now a full band again, the question of future projects with Toby staying on as the singer seems relevant. Jason concludes, "I gotta be honest with you that did cross my mind. I haven't spoken to the guys about it yet, but I doubt we could release anything new as Glide because that was William's band. But talking about it now makes me think that maybe the idea I had in the back of my mind wasn't so crazy after all."

Band Of Horses live in Melbourne 2010 (acoustic set)
Acoustic Splendor Side Show at The Corner, 26/07/10
Band Of Horses leader, Ben Bridwell is in possession of one of the finest voices in contemporary Americana, yet his occasional, severe stage-fright means his unassertive vocals can weaken when the band are in full cry. The announcement then of a special acoustic one-off show was instantly tantalizing given Bridwell's often tender delivery. Wonderfully, this stripped back affair would prove to be an ideal setting for Ben to breathe life into his cache of songs. He along with Tyler Ramsey (lead guitar) and Ryan Monroe (keys) harmonise beautifully throughout the set which is made up evenly of tracks from all three albums. The acoustic billing also meant they were keen to play around with some arrangements - treating to a much sped up Wicked Gil and a greatly slowed down Weed Party from debut, Everything All The Time.
The current album, Infinite Arms is overall a more up lifting set than say 2007's shimmering, moody Cease To Begin, and even the sway-along hay ride of the first record doesn't quite reach it's gleeful heights. That pervading sunny vibe is captured effortlessly tonight, and speaking of captured, this concert is being filmed – the four TV studio-sized cameras gave it away – for a future DVD release, which really should have encouraged a bit more audience response, but many here tonight are affected by Monday-itis so there's very little activity off stage. Ben's in good spirits though and talks a lot between songs, plus he's no longer hidden behind that famous wall of hair, but instead, just for the shoot he's mowed it all down to a neat little moustache. Tyler Ramsey, the gigantic lead guitarist, however is a mop on legs looking more than ever like he's not so much on tour but had just escaped from a cellar in the dead of night. The rest of the band are in various degrees of beard farming mode, with the prize going to Ryan Monroe for his ample 'ginger bear' growth. But let's not split whiskers when there's glorious music to review - and Band Of Horses have a peerless amount of that. It's pretty hard to believe they already have three albums out.
It feels like only yesterday I heard The Funeral for the first time and fell instantly and deeply in love all the while harbouring the thought that 'nobody would ever hear how great this is, it's far too cult-y.' Fool me, the word got out and their sound waves of golden greatness spread around the globe gently bewitching people en masse. Then came second album Cease To Begin providing all us mortals, haunted and music starved with a juicy morsel to see out the winter. This album's strength is it recalls great music from across decades past, while sounding inspired and new. The set tonight is bookended by two cuts from Cease… the yearning Cigarettes, Wedding Bands and the paean to great story telling, Ode To LRC, while the bittersweet No One's Gonna Love You forms the centrepiece. On the latter song we are treated to a sublime acoustic reworking, just Ben and Tyler sharing a mic while the band exit the stage. Simple and captivating moments like these fill-out the show and that Monday-itis felt throughout the crowd is begins to look more like stunned amazement. The support act, Mike Noga & The Gentlemen Of Leisure, who played a pretty tidy blues rock set tonight features Dan Luscombe from The Drones, who has become close with Band Of Horses. He surprises us and joins them on stage, complete with his accordion, for a rousing Marry Song. Ben and Dan perform a bizarre introduction, Bridwell; "Hello Mr Fuck, I'm Mrs Fuck." It makes little sense, but the comradely exchange is hilarious. It's noteworthy that Band of Horses for the first time wrote or co-wrote much of Infinite Arms as a group, as opposed to just Ben writing as on the previous albums. As a result, new songs such as Older - which was written and sung by Ryan – sees Ben take the backseat and the keyboardist lead the band for a time. It's this new dynamic, along with the full band harmonies that really propels the show along.
The band have found a solid footing at last after losing several members in their short lifespan and have eventually gained musicians fully committed to making Band Of Horses a tour de force. Their 2008 show was a triumph, but tonight an even happier, more dynamic and sweeter sounding group stand before us. The obvious friendship between Ben and Tyler particularly has provided a benefit to their live show. A second duet, Evening Kitchen, in the encore shows off the two lads evenly matched pitch and range. They compliment each other so well, it's as if neither wants to let the other down or outshine him. This acoustic set demonstrated a softer, more pliable side of the band, yet they only held back a little on the grunt. The majority of the songs were less 'unplugged' as they were 'reshaped' and in doing so, lost absolutely none of their appeal. Experiencing this concert was a seriously enriching couple of hours. With seemingly little effort, these horses once again finish first.

Charles Haddon (Ou Est Le Swimming Pool) interview...

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaCommonCrawl


Pyaar Ka Punchnama series' director Luv Ranjan once again got succeed to hit the target right with his latest offering titled Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. Starring his favorite Kartik Aaryan, Nushrat Bharucha, Sunny Singh, and Ishita Raj, this comedy film is a love triangle but with an interesting twist of bromance.
Because of its interesting and funny storyline along with the mind-blowing performances of lead actors, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety has received mostly favorable reviews from the critics as well as the audience. As a result, it gained positive word of mouth and emerged hit within a week of release.
After a solid start, SKTKS remained strong throughout the first week and did the business of 45.94 crores, that included 26.57 crores of the weekend and 19.37 crores of weekdays from 1650 screens. The film is now running in its second week and still has a good hold over the audience across India.
In the second weekend, once again Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety showed remarkable growth and registered the business of 19.40 crores that included 5.83 crores of Friday, 6.55 crores of Saturday and 7.02 crores of Sunday. After 10 days, the total collection of the film had recorded 65.34 crores.
Then on the next day i.e. 2nd Monday, due to normal working days, it witnessed an abrupt drop in footfalls but still managed to remain steady. On its 11th day, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety minted the amount of 2.71 crores and raised 11 days total collection to 68.05 crores at the domestic box office.


Week 4 is considered the hardest week at Hack Reactor. In fact it is so challenging that at the end of Week 3 we had a special meeting to discuss what to expect for this week.
When the instructors tell you point blank that it is not uncommon for people to feel completely lost and totally confused then you wonder what is in store for you.
Week 4 is our first foray into building complete full-stack applications. During this week we will learn about NodeJS and handling asynchronous event loops. Mid week we transitioned into learning about data storage structures and server side concepts. The end of the week we jumped head first into databases.
NodeJS is a platform for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.
Node.js provides an event-driven architecture and a non-blocking I/O API that optimizes an application's throughput and scalability. These technologies are commonly used for real-time web applications.
Node.js is primarily used to build network programs such as web servers, making it similar to PHP and Python. The biggest difference between PHP and Node.js is that PHP is a blocking language (commands execute only after the previous command has completed), while Node.js is a non-blocking language (commands execute in parallel, and use callbacks to signal completion).
An algorithm is step-by-step instructions on how to solve a problem. Once you start running a function it continues line by line until it is complete.
This is called blocking code simply because the next line of code will not be executed until the current line completes. In other words that line of code is blocked from executing until the current line of code is done.
Node.JS introduces an entirely new concept called non-blocking code. The code will start executing from the top and the next line of code can execute without waiting for the previous line to complete.
For example if you are uploading a very large graphic image to the server that is 100 megs in size, in blocking code you will not be able to do anything until that image has finished uploading.
With non-blocking code you can start uploading the file and then run the next lines of code while the file is uploading. When the file is finished, a callback function is executed. The operation stack will execute that callback function as soon as the current execution is completed.
This process allows you to basically do multiple things concurrently.
After struggling to learn how to write callback to handle the asynchronous format of Node.JS, mid week we were able to delve more deeply into server functionality.
We were able to build upon our nearly learned Node skills by creating multiple node services. These services relied on command-line processes like Cron to run successfully.
We created a website that provided similar functionality to the WayBackMachine. Our server would take snapshots of a website and store it. At set times this snapshot is updated by the back-end processes.
One thing Hack Reactor is good at teaching its students is the ability to quickly analyze a problem and then work on solving that problem. The end of week 4 we were introduced to Databases.
Almost every server application will use some form of a database to store data. The database that is used is determined by the size and quantity of the data being stored.
At the low end of the scale you have NoSQL databases. At the high end of the scale you have fully blown relational databases like SQL.
Many of the students were not familiar with SQL or how you joined tables together to create a relationship with your data. The focus of our sprint was to learn how to build a well-defined database schema that would support our application.
We learned about one to one, one to many and many to many relationships among tables.
With this sprint we combined our client application we completed previously with our server application to create a Twitter like application. Each tweet was stored in a SQL database.
When the instructors said Week 4 is the hardest week they were not kidding. This week was the most challenging week I have faced at Hack Reactor.
Being able to complete the basic requirements of our sprints this week provided a sense of accomplishment.

Bayer Joins The Call For The Continuity Of Life-Saving Malaria Prevention Measures In The Wake Of The Covid-19 Pandemic
1,100 people die from malaria everyday, taking the life of one child every two minutes.
Malaria is a preventable and treatable disease caused by parasites that are transmitted to people through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes.
As the resilience of the most robust health systems around the world continues to be tested in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, this World Malaria Day, Bayer encourages countries especially vulnerable to malaria, to ensure the continuity of malaria prevention and control measures in support of the appeal from the World Health Organisation (WHO).
Nearly half the world's population remains at risk from malaria infection and in 2018, it led to a staggering 405,000 deaths worldwide, 94% of which occurred in Africa. Considering these numbers, it is critical that programmes to prevent the disease continue in regions such as sub-Saharan Africa, where populations are most vulnerable and health infrastructures are oftentimes fragile.
Dr. Jacqueline Applegate, President of the unit working in vector-borne disease prevention at Bayer, says, "As the world's attention focuses on COVID-19, our efforts to eradicate malaria must remain a priority as it is in times of health and economic crises that diseases have the potential to resurge. We simply cannot let our guard down if we are to protect the millions at high risk from malaria, many of whom are farmers, and stop the cycle of hunger and poverty. For Bayer malaria has been – and will continue to be – high on the agenda."
By ensuring access to core malaria prevention measures the strain on health systems can be reduced, allowing more availability for treatment of COVID-19 cases. Since 2000, the coordinated battle against malaria has culminated in a 60% reduction of malaria-related deaths saving close to seven million lives. This year, COVID-19 is threatening to disrupt malaria prevention and treatment programmes and we need to ensure that progress is not lost.
"Today, more than ever before, we truly appreciate the immensity and global impact of infectious diseases. They don't respect borders and require governments, scientists and academics, innovators, NGO's and corporations to work together." emphasised Dr. Applegate.
Bayer is continuing to support our partners to implement vector control by ensuring our production sites, supply chains and logistics continue to bring life-saving malaria tools to those most in need. Bayer also continues to invest in research and development to identify new transformative tools to fight against the disease.
World Malaria Day, marked each year on 25 April, is an occasion to highlight the need for continued investment and sustained political commitment for malaria prevention and control.

Covid 19 Fears – A Nation's Economy And Emotions, All In Ruins


Engineers will deploy a trash collection device to corral plastic litter floating between California and Hawaii in an attempt to clean up the world's largest garbage patch in the heart of the Pacific Ocean.
Plastic cutlery is a major contributor to the growing plastic waste crisis. An estimated 40 billion plastic utensils are used and thrown away each year in the United States alone. But an Indian cutlery company has a possible solution — spoons and forks you can eat.
A new study suggests that the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, an area spanning 1.6 million square kilometres, contains more than 79,000 tonnes of floating plastic — 16 times more than previous estimates.
The machine produced in various sizes, for both industrial and home uses, can easily transform a kilogram of plastic waste into a liter of oil, using about 1 kW·h of electricity but without emitting CO2 in the process. The machine uses a temperature controlling electric heater instead of flames, processing anything from polyethylene or polystyrene to polypropylene (numbers 2-4). Comment: 1 kg of plastic produces one liter of oil, which costs $1.50. This process uses only about 1 kW·h of electricity, which costs less than 20 cents!

Upwork is a freelancing website that connects businesses with freelance talent for highly-skilled knowledge work such as web, mobile and software development and design. Through Upwork, businesses can connect with freelancers to work on projects from web and mobile app development to SEO, social media marketing, content writing, graphic design, admin help and thousands of other projects.
Upwork receives millions of files a day from clients and freelancers and needs to ensure that those files are free from threats to protect both their own systems and the systems of everyone using their platform. To protect against possible malicious file uploads, Upwork deployed OPSWAT MetaDefender for its multi-scanning technology, which was able to block most threats, especially known threats. However, sophisticated attacks were still getting through, as many as 3-4 malware attacks per week.
After prototyping a number of solutions, including sandboxes and other multi-scanners, Upwork selected OPSWAT's content disarm and reconstruction (CDR) technology, also supported by its MetaDefender platform, to prevent the more sophisticated attacks from getting through.
MetaDefender CDR, also known as data sanitization, breaks down a file (such as Microsoft Office, PDF and image files) into its component parts, and removes any potentially malicious elements, including macros, scripts, or embedded files. The file is then reconstructed with the remaining safe content. With CDR, even if a document contains an undetected threat, it is made harmless in the process.
Upwork has always been focused on providing a secure environment for its community of millions of users, so they can safely transfer files and collaborate. Upwork and OPSWAT's mutual commitment to security reinforces our pledge to ensure all users can have the necessary protection to keep their home and business IT environments safe.
See how Upwork prevented 100% of zero-day file attacks with MetaDefender CDR, compared to only 70% blocked by standard AV.
After implementing MetaDefender CDR, there have been no more reported instances of malware making it through. With MetaDefender CDR, Upwork was able to prevent 100% of zero-day file attacks with MetaDefender CDR, compared to only 70% blocked by standard AV.
In addition, Upwork has not encountered any usability issues with the sanitized, rebuilt files. MetaDefender enables Upwork to retain the original file in case something is lost during the sanitization process that is critical to the value of the file. However, since implementing the data sanitization functionality, no user of Upwork's platform has requested access to the original file. This is a strong endorsement of MetaDefender's ability to retain the usability of files throughout the data sanitization process.
Upwork further reports that the CDR solution comes with almost no maintenance or overhead once it's deployed, and with little to no impact on user experience. All files with active objects are sanitized; 75% of files are processed and ready in less than a second, and 99% within less than six seconds.
For more information about OPSWAT and the MetaDefender product line, please contact us.
OPSWAT is a global provider of cyber security solutions that protect organizations from content-based threats and ensure regulatory compliance. Since 2002, OPSWAT has been helping enterprises identify, detect, and remediate advanced security threats from data and network-connected devices. Trusted by more than 1,200 organizations worldwide, OPSWAT's MetaDefender solutions prevent advanced security threats across multiple channels.

With Dmitrij Kitajenko we honor one of today's finest conductors, with a long list of first-rate recordings including outstanding complete recordings of the symphonies of Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Scriabin and Tchaikovsky. As a master of color and shading, he has left his mark on the interpretation of these works like nobody else. His inspirational charisma is as strongly felt by orchestras as it is by audiences. Today, he continues to perpetuate his art, generously combining enthusiasm and excellence.
Dmitrij Kitajenko is one of the great maestros of our time. For decades now he has regularly conducted prestigious orchestras across Europe, America and Asia.
Born in 1940 in Leningrad (now St Petersburg), Dmitrij Kitajenko studied at the famous Glinka School of Music and the Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory, before leaving to study with Leo Ginzburg in Moscow as well as Hans Swarowsky and Karl Österreicher in Vienna.
In 1969, he was a prize-winner at the first International Herbert von Karajan Conducting Competition, and at the age of twenty-nine he was appointed Principal Conductor of the Stanislavsky Theatre in Moscow. In 1976, he assumed the post of Principal Conductor of the Moscow Philharmonic.
In 1990, Dmitrij Kitajenko moved to the West, successively becoming Principal Conductor of the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Symphony Orchestra of Bern/Switzerland and the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, as well as Principal Guest Conductor of the Danish National Symphony Orchestra. From 1999 until 2004, he was Chief Conductor of the KBS Symphony in Seoul. From 2012 to 2017, Dmitrij Kitajenko has also been Principal Guest Conductor of Berlin's Konzerthausorchester. In September 2015, he was named Conductor of Honor by the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra.
Dmitrij Kitajenko and the Gürzenich Orchestra Cologne, of which he has been Honorary Conductor since 2009, have recorded the complete symphonies by Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov. These recordings have been awarded with numerous international prizes and are considered important reference recordings. Their recording of Tchaikovsky's opera Iolanta in 2015 (with Olesya Golovneva, Alexander Vinogradov and Andrei Bondarenko in the lead roles) caused a sensation, and it received the Opera of the Year Award of the International Classical Music Awards (ICMA).
In 2018, OehmsClassics released Stravinsky's Symphony op. 1 and his Suites Nos. 1 & 2 as well as Glazunov's Seasons and Tchaikovsky's Serenade for Strings with the Zagreb Philharmonic. The Second Symphony by Jean Sibelius, recorded with the Gürzenich Orchestra Cologne received the ICMA Award 2019 as best recording in the category Symphonic Music.
Dmitrij Kitajenko's discography encompasses a total of more than 250 recordings, mostly with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra, the Frankfurt Radio Symphony, the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra.
In recognition of his life's work and outstanding recordings, including the complete symphonic works by Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Scriabin and Tchaikovsky, Dmitrij Kitajenko received the Lifetime Achievement Award of the ICMA (International Classical Music Awards) in 2015.

Future Vision: An Interview with Pininfarina's Next Generation | RM Sotheby's
Monaco Ferrari
Future Vision: An Interview with Pininfarina's Next Generation
RM Sotheby's looks ahead with Paolo Pininfarina while reflecting on his father Sergio's personal Ferrari.
Duccio Lopresto | 06 May, 2022
In Italy, designing the future is a family tradition. To create a timeless shape, one must understand the past while envisioning ahead many years. Sitting under the filtered lights in Pininfarina's design studio in Cambiano, in Italy's northwest Piedmont region, the 1995 Ferrari 456 GT once owned by Sergio Pininfarina himself looks fresh and modern. The noble and elegant gran tourismo was supplied from the Ferrari factory in a direct sale and has remained part of the Pininfarina family collection ever since.
Continuing the company's legacy, Sergio's son, Paolo, is now the man responsible for translating his family's tradition into a new universe of products and projects for brands around the world, from Ferrari to Coca-Cola. In 2019, the firm released their own supercar, the Battista, named for their founder and powered by quad liquid-cooled permanent magnet synchronous electric motors at each wheel. Moving beyond physical products, Pininfarina just announced a collaboration with RM Sotheby's for a one-of-one digital artwork modeled after the Modulo concept. I visited Paolo Pininfarina for an extensive audience one week before RM Sotheby's Monaco auction on 14 May, where his father Sergio's personal Ferrari 456 GT will leave family ownership for the first time. Here is the car and interview:
RM Sotheby's: What does the car represent for you from an emotional and personal point of view? What did your father think of it?
Paolo Pininfarina: The 456 GT is the last Ferrari my father owned, so it has a very special value for our family and our company history. It is a sober and elegant car, with a classic design and quite muscular at the back. My father loved it very much because it was the result of a complex design effort in the early 1990s; a car that represented a new chapter for Pininfarina.
RMS: Do you have a particular memory or anecdote about this car that you would like to share?
Paolo Pininfarina: I remember my dad used to drive it quite a lot and we spent quite some time together in this car. A nice memory I have is a journey of about half an hour from Garlenda to Cervo Ligure in the summer of 1996. I used to be in the back seat during these trips... feeling quite uncomfortable as you can imagine, in keeping with the Ferrari 2+2 tradition.
RMS: Is there any detail or secret about the car that only you know?
Paolo Pininfarina: Yes. The naval flags representing the initials "p" and "f" of Pininfarina and Ferrari are common to all our design cars owned by the two families, at least until 2014; I think an almost unknown detail is the "Lancia" type stitching of the seats in the longitudinal direction. We were inspired by the great Lancias of the 1960s for its interiors, as they were the height of elegance and Italian style at the time.
RMS: The Ferrari 456 is a noble design introduced in 1992, a key period in the evolution of the Ferrari brand. Why is it an important car in the history of Pininfarina design and what did it represent from a stylistic point of view?
Paolo Pininfarina: This car is very "classic" in terms of its design; a typical expression of Pininfarina's mature design of the early 1990s. This car represents a return to a certain Ferrari classicism, a return to the classic coupe, with front engine and 2+2 seat configuration, in keeping with Ferrari's design tradition.
RMS: Was it a strong change of direction from past cars? What new design elements were introduced?
Paolo Pininfarina: This car replaces the Ferrari 412 and was certainly a strong change of direction from a styling point of view. Compared to the 412, the evolution is remarkable because the identity is much sportier, and the lines are much less angular and much more fluid. The 456 is a throwback to 1960s Gran Turismo cars, with a return to the round rear lights in a more modern configuration.
RMS: Which cars from the glorious past did Pininfarina take inspiration from for the 456 GT, and which later cars did it inspire?
Paolo Pininfarina: I can see two inspirations: the front engine air outlet is an "inverted" version of the rear air inlet of the Ferrari Mythos concept car introduced at the 1989 Tokyo Motor Show; the downward sweep of the roof and the volumes of the rear are like those of the Daytona of the late 1960s.
RMS: What are the typical distinctive features of the Pininfarina brand on this car?
Paolo Pininfarina: Simplicity and essentiality in terms of lines and surfaces. The 456 is a Pininfarina car because Pininfarina is at its best when it comes to respect of proportions, with a unique ability to reconcile modernity with classicism. It's both a very elegant and sporty car.
RMS: How did it fit into the automotive scene of the early 1990s and how was it received by the press and the public?
Paolo Pininfarina: Considering the luxury market at the time, I think that over 1500 units produced represented a good commercial success. Above all, the model was quite long-lived as it was produced from 1993 to 2003 and, if I remember rightly, was very well received by the press. Moreover, the 456 was a Ferrari that lent itself to colours that were less garish than typical (red and yellow), making it a car that could be shown off soberly every day.
RMS: Ferrari and Pininfarina are the most iconic link between automaker and coachbuilder in the history of car design. What values did Ferrari share with Pininfarina, and how were they expressed with the 456?
Paolo Pininfarina: From a stylistic point of view, as Enzo Ferrari said, the longevity of our design has always been the value that makes the difference. A Ferrari dressed by Pininfarina however, had to be profoundly innovative and, in this sense, the 456 achieves its objective because its architecture is in strong discontinuity with the previous 412.
RMS: What has the sixty-plus-years relationship with Ferrari meant for you in terms of evolution and styling?
Paolo Pininfarina: In 2013, the year after my father's death, Ferrari organised the "Sergio Pininfarina's Ferraris" exhibition at the Ferrari Museum in Maranello, and the exhibition poster counted more than 100 production models, including variants, characterised by our design contribution. I would like to say that in more than 60 years of collaboration, from 1952 to 2014, Pininfarina has not only carried out an immense stylistic activity but has also made a decisive contribution to the construction of the Ferrari brand identity. The value of this work is now recognised throughout the automotive world by both traditional manufacturers and the start-ups that are entering the market today.
RMS: How has your approach to style changed since the separation?
Paolo Pininfarina: Little has changed from the point of view of values: innovation, elegance, and essentiality remain the prerequisites for all our design projects, even in the future. Certainly, if the collaboration had continued as organically and explicitly as it did until 2014, we would not have developed sports car projects like the H2 Speed in 2014, the Fittipaldi EF in 2017 and, from 2018 onwards, the Battista for Automobili Pininfarina.
RMS: What new markets are you approaching and how do you plan to speak to the next generation?
Paolo Pininfarina: We are growing geometrically in the two most important markets in the world, the United States and China, through our offices in Miami and Shanghai, which together account for about 20% of the value of Group production, which is currently around 70 million euros. Pininfarina of America was recently awarded the "A great place to work" certification, which shows that our company can be attractive to young people, as we see happening today at the Cambiano headquarters.
RMS: You have launched the Battista, a phenomenal piece of design but also an engineering gem. What are the future plans for PF Automobili?
Paolo Pininfarina: The Battista is a dream come true. I have had the privilege of driving it and I can confirm that I have never seen or tried a car that is comparable in terms of both beauty and performance. It's a full electric hypercar, 110% innovative, as it should be for a car that bears the name of our Founder. As far as the future of Automobili Pininfarina is concerned, I think it's best to keep this confidential for the time being.
RMS: What do you think about the future of car design in the context of an electrified world and what role will Pininfarina play?
Paolo Pininfarina: From 2015 onwards, the car is experiencing four revolutions at the same time: connectivity, autonomous driving, shared ownership, and electrification. A concentration of innovation, even disruptive innovation, that doesn't frighten us because the future is in our DNA. A good recent example of our synthetic approach to innovation is the Teorema concept presented in virtual form in the summer of 2021.
With its impeccable Pininfarina family provenance, this 1995 Ferrari 456 GT is sure to attract some attention when it goes up for auction next week in Monaco.
