Gender and socioeconomic inequalities in health at older ages across different European welfare clusters: evidence from SHARE data, 2004–2015
European Sociological Review
This study takes a comparative approach to assess whether the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and health in later life differs by gender in a sample of individuals aged 50 and above living in nine European countries (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland). We apply linear hybrid (between-within) regression models using panel data (50,459 observations from 13,955 respondents) from five waves of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) between the years 2004–2015. SES measures included education, income, and wealth. A 40- item Frailty Index (FI) of accumulated deficits, an important indicator of health in older populations, was used as dependent variable. Considering between-effects estimates, our results show that the positive impact of education and wealth on health is stronger for women living in countries where the welfare arrangements are less decommodifying and defamilializing. No such interaction is found for income and for fixed-effects estimates. This study could advance the understanding of gender inequalities in health. Also, such findings can guide future policies devoted at reducing gender and socioeconomic inequalities in health in later life.

Q: Outlook API time difference in Calendar I have a problem with the use of the Outlook API specially with the Calendar API.
I send dates with a UTC format and when they are added in the Calendar, I have a difference with the send date.
I'm in France so the original date is in UTC+2. I convert in UTC and make my request with this configuration :
var options = {
            url: "https://outlook.office.com/api/v2.0/me/calendars/" + workspace.calendarId + "/events?$Select=Id",
            method: "POST",
            headers: {
                "authorization": "Bearer " + host.outlookCalAccessToken,
                "accept" : "application/json",
                "ContentType" : "application/json"
            },
            json:{
                "Subject" : event.summary,
                "Body" : {
                    "ContentType" : "Text",
                    "Content" : event.description
                },
                "Start" : {
                    "DateTime":start,
                    "TimeZone" : "OriginStartTimeZone"
                },
                "End" : {
                    "DateTime":end,
                    "TimeZone" : "OriginStartTimeZone"

                },
                "Attendees" : [
                    {
                        "EmailAddress" : {
                            "Name" : nomad.firstname,
                            "Address" : nomad.email
                        },
                        "Type" : "Required"
                    }
                ]

            },
            "Content-Type" : "application/json"
        };

I have the same problem if the TimeZone is "OriginStartTimeZone" or "UTC".
For example, my local date is 2017-10-19T17:00:00.000
It is converted to the UTC 2017-10-19T15:00:00.000Z
And in the calendar the event date is 2017-10-19T08:00:00.000
What have I missed with this API ?
Thanks!

A: OriginStartTimeZone isn't a valid value for TimeZone. If you set TimeZone to UTC you should get the expected results. I just tested it here with this payload:
{
    "Subject" : "test",
    "Body" : {
        "ContentType" : "Text",
        "Content" : "hello"
    },
    "Start" : {
        "DateTime": "2017-10-19T15:00:00.000Z",
        "TimeZone" : "UTC"
    },
    "End" : {
        "DateTime": "2017-10-19T16:00:00.000Z",
        "TimeZone" : "UTC"
    }
}

Both in the response to my POST and subsequent GET requests for the event, I get back:
"Start": {
    "DateTime": "2017-10-19T15:00:00.0000000",
    "TimeZone": "UTC"
},
"End": {
    "DateTime": "2017-10-19T16:00:00.0000000",
    "TimeZone": "UTC"
},

A: If you want your event start date to be 2017-10-19 at 10:30 local time, your start object should look like this:
Start:{DateTime: "2017-10-19T10:30:00+02:00", TimeZone: "UTC"}

Is this what your start object look like? If it does, then the event time should be shown correctly in the calendar.

A: After changing the timezone to UTC, the problem still occured. I found what it doesn't work. In the webmail, the timezone was set to UTC-8 although I filled the right timezone when I registered...
Thanks for your answers !

My husband hates wigs…I can't afford expensive weaves.
What can I do to best deal with hair loss along my front hairline? (I was already told this is normal post-partum hair loss and that it will grow back over time.) Currently, I am wearing twists and have been wearing headbands to cover up the short hair spots.

Good question Arc, but think I'll leave it to ya'lls imagination.
So that's why you have been gone so long? your military?
PS, Did you give up on your Mando Helmet? The metal one?
Nope, the helmet is still sitting out in the garage waiting for me or someone else to finish it.
I just don't have the time nor energy to do that or any other things I'd like to.
Oh a Tech Sergeant. I like the picture of the U.S.S. Alabama. Been there many times. A B-52 bomber used to (if it doesn't still) sit there that my grandfather used to fly in.
I made it to AC1, but was honorably discharged due to blindness in one eye.
Yeah, it was pretty cool. Too bad we only got to go over to Mobile, AL for one day. We never did make it over to the WWII Submarine they had docked there. That B-52 is still there, by the way.
They had a lot of the aircraft on display outside the big hanger, because it was damaged so bad during Hurricane Katrina. Alot of the aircraft got damaged pretty badly, too.
Nice pictures, thanks for posting! Sad to see the SR in such a bad shape. It seems they've updated the place since my last visit some six or so years ago. You should see the sub, really interesting!
Wow, I did not relize the scale of a B-52. I mean, I have a model, I knew they were big but, wow. Big bomber.
That poor SR-71, to bad, those plane are beutifull planes.
Do you have pic of that sub?
I have pictures of the sub, but they're laying in boxes. Plus I don't use a scanner so that makes the task so much more daunting. The B-52 is one bad son of a gun!
As I said ARC, use your imagination!
You ladies look good in dresses. More than I can say for myself.
Are you still in high school!?!
Some of them ended up really blurry for some reason, Probably because I can't hold a camera steady.
Boba Dude and Arc, yes, I'm still in high school. >_>;; It was my senior prom. A lot of people where I work think I'm in college... I'm used to it.
Nice pics, Mandalorian! I think on some of them you forgot to press "flash" lol.
Yeah, it gets dark in my basement at times I guess. I don't enjoy flash, because I'm very pale, and the flash tends to show that more.
The dresses are pretty, I especially like your friend's dress, though I like the color of yours. I never wear dresses, though.
Ooo, thanks for waking it up, I almost missed it...here's the oft-missing BalanceSheet.
Me in my favorite place on earth, a dirty little town on the Baja.
I made it all myself, except the pants, I bought those then cut them down into sortof shorts.
Some of you look the exact opposite of what I expected. Gustavo, that link only works to you, or to someone who is logged into your account.

University Information, Campus and History
(Catania, Italy)
The University of Catania is a leading research university in Sicily, Italy. It is the primary university in Sicily, attracting a large part of the island's student population, as well as one of the largest. It has over 55,000 students and 3,000 staff, and maintains strong ties with major community service programmes in Italy and research institutes around Europe.
The University was founded in 1434, making it the oldest university in Sicily. Its founding is credited to Alfonso of Aragon and Popoe Eugene IV, who were dissatisfied with the educational system at the time. None of the three main centres of education - Palermo, Messina, and Trapani - were allowed to grant degrees, a right granted only by the Pope. Alfonso of Aragon and Eugene IV authorised the foundation of the university in 1434, but it was only ten years later that the first faculties were established. These were the Faculties of Medicine, Philosophy, Canonic and Civil Law, and Theology and Arts. The first degrees were granted to ten students at the Cathedral, where the new graduates were given gold rings and a personal blessing from the Archbishop.
Although the University has done away with such traditions, it has maintained its reputation as a premier university and remains at the forefront of research and education in Sicily. Its units and constituents are now spread throughout the city, giving it the feel of a university town within Catania. Many of its older building can be found in the city centre and are well preserved by the government, and it continues to expand with more modern facilities to create a diverse academic community.
The university has a comprehensive information resource centre, with a Central Library and 12 dependent libraries. The libraries are further divided into specialised libraries for every department, adding up to over 30 libraries. Each library focuses on a specific area of study and is located in the appropriate Faculty. The Central Library is linked to its constituents by a state-of-the-art electronic network, where a database of all available resources is available to students and staff. There are also viewing theatres for plays and musical performances, as well as audio-video rooms for playing multimedia materials.
The University also offers several facilities for sports and recreation. It has its own sports association, Centro Universitaria Sportivo (CUS) Catania, which manages the University's sports facilities for instruction and free use. Facilities include pool, track ovals, and playing fields for several outoor sports and ball games.
Famous Students
Many graduates from the University of Catania have found fame and recognition in their own areas of study, both within and outside Italy. Although a large number of them are in the fields of science and medicine, the university has also produced prominent graduates in the arts, social sciences, and public service.
Some famous University of Catania alumni are public finance expert Romilda Rizzo, STMicroelectronics vice president Mario Licciardello, agriculture business expert Massimo Amico, and Napoleone Ferrrara, inventor of potential cancer drug Avastin.
The University of Catania offers courses for international master's degrees and foreign Erasmus students, as well as foreign study programmes in Japan, India, the United States, and Latin America. It also offers the prestigious Fulbright Scholarship to outstanding bachelor's degree holders. The Asia Link programme, which offers courses in nuclear physics and astrophysics, is also available.
Those interested in the US Fulbright programme can call the Commission for the Cultural Exchanges between Italy and the United States at 06,4888211 or send a fax to 06.4815680.
For the Asia Link programme, interested parties can send application forms to Università degli Studi di Catania, Piazza Università 2, 95124 Catania,. Italy. Additional information can be obtained by calling +39 095 542 277 or sending a fax to +39 095 378 5231.

What is the reapplication procedure?
The same as the normal application. If your application was rejected, do not reapply unless you obtained another diploma in the meantime.
General programme questions
How does the MScF programme distinguish itself from similar programmes?
Beyond high scientific standards, the programme is designed to prepare and facilitate the transition to the finance professions.
The first semester concentrates on core courses in the foundations of modern finance, accounting, quantitative methods and economics. After the first semester, the small number of students allows interactive teaching and team work to solve case studies and projects.
The programme has a strong focus on financial analysis, asset valuation and portfolio management so that it is tailored to take the CFA exams. These professional exams are highly valuable and recognized all over the world.
Is it possible to prepare for the CFA exam while enrolled in the MScF?
The Master is part of the CFA Institute University Affiliation Program. This status is granted to institutions whose programme incorporates at least 70% of the CFA Program Candidate Body of Knowledge, which provides you with a solid grounding to sit for the CFA exams.
Is it possible to follow the programme part-time?
Yes, upon request and in exceptional cases such as employment or child care. Approval of the director of the MScF is mandatory.
Is it possible to follow the courses from a distance?
Are there evening sessions?
Unfortunately, there are no evening sessions.
How many people do you admit each year?
Our goal is to admit around 30 students every year.
Do you accept credits and transfers from other universities?
Credits transfers obtained in other master programmes are limited to elective courses. They are reviewed case by case.
I am interested in a PhD in Finance. Does the MScF lead to a PhD?
Every year, some students decide to write a PhD thesis at the Institute of Financial Analysis in Neuchatel or abroad (UK, US). Elective courses with strong theoretical foundations, either in Neuchâtel or at other Swiss universities, facilitate the enrolment in a PhD programme.
Internship and employment
How many students are able to get internships?
Many students complete an internship between two semesters.
If certain conditions are fulfilled, students can earn 6 ECTS for completing an internship report.
In addition, it is possible to write an internship thesis instead of a research thesis during the fourth semester. The internship thesis is a project completed under the guidance of a company and allows to earn 30 ECTS if a student signs up for the extended 120 ECTS Master in Finance.
Are the internships guaranteed?
It is not possible to guarantee internships, because by Swiss law these have to be based on individual contracts between the student and a company.
In our experience, good students from Switzerland and the EU comfortably find internships in Switzerland. Non-EU students have to consider additional administrative burdens and constraints from their visa. It is also possible to do internships in another country than Switzerland.
What is the average salary for MScF graduates?
The median is CHF 80'000 when hired and CHF 100'000 after three year for Alumni working in Switzerland.

British financial regulatory body Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has issued its latest warning against the Estonian-registered company GoldTech Media Service OÜ as an unregulated financial services provider targeting British consumers.
"Almost all firms and individuals offering, promoting or selling financial services or products in the UK have to be authorized by us," the FCA said. "However, some firms act without our authorisation and some knowingly run investment scams. This firm is not authorised by us and is targeting people in the UK. Based upon information we hold, we believe it is carrying on regulated activities which require authorisation."
On its website, GoldTech Media Service claims to offer "insured client funds," share dealing, indices trading, CFDs, forex trading and a number of other products, including what it calls "negative balance protection."
Its website at www.glenm.com was still live as of Monday.
"We believe this firm has been providing financial services or products in the UK without our authorisation," said the British regulator.
According to the FCA, GoldTech Media Service lists its address as: Tornimäe 5, 10145 Tallinn, Estonia. Creditinfo, meanwhile, lists the company's address at Roosikrantsi 2, Tallinn.
The Estonian Financial Supervision Authority issued a warning regarding GoldTech Media Service on 26 January.

LatAm Spotlight: Investors Head For Cuba
Latin America is once again in the investor spotlight when it comes to private equity. In this issue, we wanted to highlight new investor data on allocations to the region and in our opening feature wanted to highlight Cuba.
As relations have normalized between the US and Cuba, investors have moved quickly to find opportunities and funds that could get them exposure to this reinvigorated economy. Enter Cuba Avanza Partners.
Cuba Avanza is launching a fund specifically focused on investments in the country. The firm has a four person investment team along with two operating partners. The Cuba Avanza Opportunities Fund will be targeting $250 million for a handful of investments in the country. "We expect to see investments in areas like infrastructure, energy, telecommunications, to hotels, to ports. We'll also be looking at companies that can service the growth of the country as well," explains Michael Andrews CIO, Co-Managing Partner, in an interview with Private Equity Strategies. "We're going to be working with several operating partners in Cuba who have the experience on the ground already."
The investment team at Cuba Avanza, which includes Andrews as well as Co-Managing Partner Victor Hugo Rodriguez and Partner Ted Kanarek, circled around to the idea for the fund through conversations they were having about how to invest in Cuba and also regionally, throughout Latin America.
Alongside the normalization of relations with the US, the Cuban government is also LatAm Spotlight: Investors Head For Cuba launching development zones to incentivize foreign investors like Cuba Avanza. The Special Economic Development Zone of Mariel, located near Western Havana, will offer special incentives to foreign investors that bring cutting-edge technologies that are environmentally sustainable into Cuba. The initial focus in Mariel will be on the development of industrial, agro-food, biotechnology and alternative energy sectors.
"The Cuban government has fully realized the need to attract foreign capital, and I think that issue is even bigger now when you look at what is happening in Venezuela," notes Kanarek. "They are fully aware that they have to work to develop new capital relationships."
The Cuban government remains a primary asset owner and a significant owner in many businesses throughout the country, but the team at Cuba Avanza thinks that the potential risks that come with high levels of state ownership can be effectively managed.
Potential investors seem to agree. "Everyone wants to have a conversation about Cuba," Andrews says. "We're really looking to help grow the economy in Cuba - we want it to be to the benefit of Cubans. We want to see the growth of a middle class there." The fund is institutional grade but has also captured the attention of family offices that are interested in frontier markets.
"I think a lot of investors are looking around and asking themselves what do we make of the last emerging markets - the frontier markets - and within that, Cuba has become an attractive target," Rodriguez contends. "It's very important to remember how close Cuba is to the US. It's going to be a very good relationship competitively for Cuba, to be so close to a very large investor base in the US."

"Welcome to One on One. I'm Steve Adubato. This has got to be, you have to be one of the most fascinating people I've ever spoken to, and people are gonna find out in a second, she is Melina Macall. She is the co-founder of The United Tastes of America, and Syria Supper Club, which is? Which is an organization that sprang from one event, which my partner, Kate McCaffrey, and I, set up in response to the xenophobic and Islamophobic rhetoric we were hearing in the area. But there's a food connection here? Because you were... There is. ...saying, right before we got on the air, you talked about food justice, there's a whole bunch of food issues. What is... what do food issues have to do with Syria and Syrian refugees, et cetera? Well rather than the food issues, it's the power of food to bring people together. We all eat. It's a nice common ground at which to meet people. And we wanted to bring people together and create connections, and show support of... at that point, initially, our Muslim neighbors, to show that there were people in New Jersey specifically, who did not agree with then-governor... well he still is our governor, but Governor Christie's... Governor Christie? Governor Christie's... As we do this program he is. ...yes, comment in November of 2015 that no Syrian refugees could come to the state. We wanted to respond, and we wanted to respond in a positive way, so we brought people together. Our very first event, we didn't know it was our first event, we thought it was an event, was a Christmas Day meal, a traditional Jewish Christmas Day meal of Chinese takeout with Jews and Muslims in a synagogue, and in fact the broader community as well. What was that like? What was that like? It was fantastic. What made it so great? The thing that makes all of our events great was first shown there, which is people's wanting to show a hand of friendship. and so people were just wanting to be there. There was a tremendous atmosphere of warmth. We work with trust all the time. So, as it turned out, we ended up with ten recently resettled Syrian families, and their first foray into New Jersey was coming to a synagogue, and that was a big leap of faith for them. And we had people who gave up their Christmas, who do celebrate Christmas, and they said, "We want to be here and show solidarity." And so that atmosphere, as the underscoring background to the evening, made everything else magnificent. Whether the food is magnificent or not, it didn't really matter. It tasted..."

Saturday night I came home from 2 days in Canberra to discover I had been broken into and everything of mine was stolen. By mine, I mean they only took MY things, nothing from anywhere in the house except my room. Clothing, shoes, jewellery, make up, skincare, perfume, even my underwear.
I had been in my new house 1 week exactly. I felt so sick. I had a feeling before I pulled up to my house that it had been robbed. Actually, I felt it when I was in Canberra, but thought it was my old house. All my electricals such as TV and fridge are still there. I stopped by my old house first and it was all fine, so figured I was being paranoid, but as I pulled into my street my stomach felt like lead. I just knew.
There were used fireworks near the side of the fence which I thought was weird and figured someone had used my backyard while I was gone. (That happened once when I house sat. Gone one night, came back to beer bottles in the yard.) As I opened my gates and pulled the car in, I started to feel even sicker.
We got out of the car and as I walked to the house I noticed a plastic bag and prayed it was just rubbish left on my lawn. I went inside and as soon as I hit the hall I could see - my stuff was gone.
I called the police and they were fantastic. They arrived 2.5hrs later, but were so good. I called my dad straight away. All I could get out at first was "I've been robbed" and I was in tears, he didn't even know who it was. He talked me through and calmed me down.
The next morning I called the insurance and they arranged for an assessor to come out. Despite not having updated my details it turns out I am covered for 14 days after moving for both addresses, old and new.
The assessor came out on Tuesday and when she stepped up to the porch she commented "I've been here before. This house has been robbed before." Great, just what I want to know.
Unfortunately I can't get out of my lease and apparently the area I live in is actually not commonly hit, but there were a string of robberies the week I got done.
All up I lost over $25k worth of stuff. I am so grateful we weren't home. Stuff can be replaced, but who knows what could have happened if we had been here. Plus, my kids are completely unaware anything happened. They went straight to bed as it was 11:30pm when we got home from Canberra. The police were here at 2am and when the fingerprints were done at 11:20am, my kids were at church.
Scary thing is, we went to church about 8:30am and I got a call at 11am for the fingerprints. I left my kids with my mother in law there and when I pulled up home my garage was broken into. I even felt before I left for church I should check it but was too scared to open the door. I am kicking myself now. The police and insurance said it is common for the thieves to stash items and come back later.
So, it has been full on here with moving, getting robbed and other things in my personal life, but things are getting back on track now.
So sorry to hear this - good on you for being so strong though.

Entrance doors are often the first things that most people notice when they visit your home. It therefore becomes imperative that you take extra care when choosing the right door for your house. The appearance of the main door should be welcoming for your guests. There are numerous functions that a door has – primarily, it should prevent intruders from breaking in and should be strong enough to withstand extreme environmental conditions. You will find numerous options in the market, some of which will surely be well within your budget. A wrong choice, when it comes to choosing your home's doors, can have bad repercussions. Apart from giving visitors a distaste of your home, it can also be a major risk to your security. Talking about the right doors for your house, a good choice for you to consider are aluminium sliding doors.
When you are at a point of choosing sliding doors for your home, there are some things you need to keep in mind so as to make the right choice.
Consider the theme of your home. The main door of your home should be a preview of the interiors, and it should reflect the overall idea of the house. For example, sleek lines are a great choice if your home has a contemporary theme.
Apart from choosing the right entrance doors according to the theme of your house, it is also important to choose opt for the right materials. Aluminium sliding doors are normally recognized for their durability, and have been used commercially as well as for home, for many years. Most of these doors have rolling gears at the bottom, and this ensures that the entire weight of the doors rest at the bottom with guide rollers at the top. The main advantage of this system is that the doors are easy to use. Aluminium doors are a perfect choice for homes with a contemporary design.
The color and finish of your doors count, and this choice is open to you when choosing aliminium doors as well. Choose doors that complement the color of your entire house. Some doors are dual colored, and are a great choice if you would like to add finesse to your home. Of course, you will need to hunt a bit extra if you are to find these in the market.
Maintaining Aluminium sliding doors is not really that difficult. Apart from looking great, aluminium is easy to clean and maintain, and is quite durable. You can simply wash it with a soap solution and your doors will be as good as new every day. Main entrance aluminum doors should be wiped once a day with a wet cloth. This will keep the door dust-free, and will also ensure that it lasts for a long time to come.
While doors offer safety and security, they should also enhance your home's features. When people step visit you, what impression do your doors give them? Are they imbued with a sense of positivity? Do they feel safe if they are staying overnight? More importantly, do you feel safe behind your closed doors?
Spending a bit of extra money to buy doors that last a lifetime is a good investment. Choose the right options for your home, such as aluminium sliding doors, and you will add a touch of class to your home along with added security. If you are confused with the many options open to you, you can always get in touch with a professional builder to find the perfect aluminum sliding door for your home.

Q: Web API tiered architecture - best practices I have seen several Web - API projects samples for the last few days in order to improve my project's architecture.
What I have so far:
Project.WebApi - Mainly consists of controllers, scripts, etc.
Project.DAL - Contains my models and repository class.
And few more sectors which are irrelevant.
My questions are:
 1. I have seen few projects which have their models AND repository classes together in DAL library, while others separate them. Is it a matter of opinion which one is better?
 2. My controllers receive JObjects, therefore I found myself converting JObjects to data objects in my controllers more than once, and it seems so wrong to me. I would like to create a custom JSON convert class for each of my models. For such a class (and other similar classes to come), would it be fine to create a library named Common, or core? Or maybe I misunderstood the concept?
A code example:
var taskId = (int)taskstatus["Id"];
var status = (string)taskstatus["Status"];
var userCreated = (int)taskstatus["UserCreated"];
if (taskId == 0 || status == null || userCreated == 0)
                return Request.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, ModelState);
var newTask = new Task{
Id = taskId,
userCreated = userCreated
...
}

Leaving all the code above in the controller looks wrong to me, the controllers should be more simple and cleaner.
 3. The repository is as follows:
public class Context : DbContext
{
public DbSet<Tasks> Tasks { get; set; }
public DbSet<Projects> Projects { get; set; }
...

as simple as that. Again, back to my controllers - I find myself do many complex queries in my controllers, which again, I feel is wrong. I don't think that the controller should take care of such queries. What would be the best practice to deal with complex queries? Maybe I should make a new class which inherit my context class, overrides some of its parent class and do the complex queries there?

A: *

*I would put it in the same project, since those classes are very tied to the database (but that may also depend on your desing).

*I would place object conversion code out of your controllers. And I recommend to use a conversion library, such as Automapper, or look for a pattern that is designed to do that. E.g.: Design pattern for converting one model to another model

*I would put complex queries in the repository. Simple linq queries (like queries containing only one orderby) could stay in the controller.

A: *

*Personally I would put your models in separate project. It makes it easy to share these with other projects in the future without having your DAL tag along.

*Agree with Joanvo, AutoMapper is the way to go. Also, having a separate project which contains the AutoMapper profiles for mapping your JObjects to your model/poco objects would be a smart move. You want your controllers as dumb as possible. In web api projects I've worked on the controller was almost always just there to accept the request and then hand it off to business layer (in your case mapping layer).

*You should NOT put ANY queries in your controllers....that is what your DAL is for.


The Asian Venture Capital Journal (AVCJ), Asia's leading source for news and information on private equity and venture capital, cordially invites you to the 4th Asian Private Equity & Venture Forum in Korea.
South Korea's 2006 GDP growth was about 5%, higher than the 4% growth in the previous year. The Won has risen to a nine-year high and Korea economic growth is likely to have a rocket skywards boosted in coming years. In the wake of rising concern that the country is inhospitable to foreign investors, Seoul is making earnest attempts to alley mounting skepticism towards its commitment to foreign capital.
In recent years, South Korea has introduced numerous new economic polices, regulatory and other changes. Substantial progress has been achieved and Korea now possesses a far more diverse and open economy with more foreign involvement and investment than ever before.
As a result, there has been an increase in interest from new breed private equity investors. From the traditional chaebol-links venture capitalists to the new independent local buyout funds and institutional investors, the private equity industry in Korea is looking stronger than ever. Together with their foreign counterparts, many partnerships are formed that is ushering in the re-emergence of Korean private equity.
The 2007 Asian Private Equity and Venture Forum - Korea will create grounds for exciting discussions between local and foreign GPs with very timely topics like buyouts and growth capital. It will also create an opportunity to find out more about International private equity companies and catch up with local friends. In addition, our keynote speaker, MR. JOSEPH L. RICE III, Founder & Chairman, Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, Inc and MR. HYUN JAE LEE from SMBA will share their unique insights and experiences garnered from the leading edge of Korea's advance.

For my Typography II final project, I selected works from writer and poet Wendell Berry and arranged them into a small sampler book. I decided to focus on the theme of the cyclical nature of life in his work, so the book has a continuous, wordless narrative that accompanies the selected works. The narrative can be read spread by spread or with the book completely laid out. The story is also completely cyclical; the story is about a mother raising her daughter, and when the mother passes away, the daughter learns to live for herself and eventually brings new life into the world, starting the cycle again.


Zundert, a small town near the southern border of the Netherlands, hosts the world's biggest flower parade. In a country famous for its flowers, it's no wonder flower parades are some sort of national hobby. The Netherlands has about thirty flower parades, large and small.
Zundert, incidentally the birth place of the famous Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh, happens to host the biggest flower parade in the world. Each year, all twenty competing districts build a huge float of their own design. It's largely a social phenomenon, in which members of the community join together in building the float and keeping the dahlia flower fields. All contributions are on voluntary basis, no one gets paid. It's being part of the community and joining in a friendly competition with competing districts that counts.
Floats are some twenty meters long and nine meters high and each float contains about half a million dahlia flowers. Float construction starts in may and lasts till the hours prior to the parade on the first sunday in september. The flowers are put on only during the last three hectic days before the parade, and literally hundreds of people per district are involved in this marathon session.
The parade is a competition, an independent and professional jury, consisting of people with a background in art and theater, decide during the day of the parade which one of the twenty competing floats is the best. The ranking is announced during the second passage through the center of the town, leading to emotional scenes (dubbed the 'Zundert jubilation') when the winning float is asked to stop during its passage. The districts go to great length to build the most beautiful float, and for people in Zundert, winning the parade is among the best experiences in life.

Press Release Versione Europea:
New coupe is the third global Toyota GR model, developed with technical expertise from TOYOTA GAZOO Racing
Designed for pure driving pleasure, an "analogue car for the digital age"
An evolution of the qualities that defined the acclaimed GT86 coupe, retaining a classic front engine/rear-wheel drive drivetrain
New 2.4-litre "boxer" engine delivers significant increases in power and torque
Transmissions tuned to secure smooth, powerful acceleration up to high engine rpm
Focus on increased body rigidity, lighter weight and lower centre of gravity for more agile performance and responsiveness
Design retains cues referencing Toyota's sports car heritage while adopting motorsports-sourced aerodynamic features
An exclusive opportunity for customers, with production limited to two years only for Europe
The new GR86 is Toyota's third global GR model, creating a "power of three" range of pure-bred sports cars, alongside the GR Supra and GR Yaris. Like them, it benefits directly from Toyota's multi-championship-winning involvement in top-level international motorsport with TOYOTA GAZOO Racing.
The new coupe will provide a new entry point to Toyota's GR range, bringing the rewards of sports-focused handling and performance to a wider audience. An evolution of the previous GT86, the model which signalled Toyota's renewed commitment to sports car engineering, it retains the classic configuration of a front-mounted engine and rear wheel drive. The engine remains a high-revving, four-cylinder "boxer" unit, but with displacement increased to gain a significant increase in power and torque. Technical adjustments to the engine and transmissions ensure that this extra potential is realised with smooth, powerful acceleration across the rev band.
Chassis development has focused on reducing weight and a further lowering of the car's centre gravity to secure even sharper handling and responsiveness. There is wider use of aluminium and other light - but - strong materials and strategic strengthening of the car's frame to achieve greater rigidity all-round. The suspension systems also benefit from detailed adjustments to optimise handling performance, while the designers received support from their motorsport colleagues in developing new aerodynamic features for the bodywork.
First revealed in April 2021 the new GR86 makes its European debut today and will be introduced here in the spring of 2022. Production will be limited to just two years, making this an exclusive proposition for customers – "when it's gone, it's gone."
Fun-to-drive – the Waku Doki car
The new GR86 is presented as "an analogue car for the digital age," designed for enthusiasts, by enthusiasts with a focus on the pure pleasures of driving – a quality expressed in the Japanese phrase "waku doki."
Importantly, the GR86 is not a sports car simply for purists and those with high levels of experience: its rewards can be discovered day-to-day on the open road as well as on the track.
As the new entry ticket to the GR brand, it will carry forward the qualities that saw the GT86 generate new fans and enthusiasm for Toyota's car culture with its participation in grass-roots competition and inspiration for tuners and after-market specialists. For those who want to personalise their car, the new model will be accompanied by a range of authentic GR accessories.
GR86 Chief Engineer Yasunori Suezawa sums up Toyota's purpose: "The GR86's mission is to open up the world of GR, enabling it to be enjoyed by more and more people."
POWER AND PERFORMANCE
2.4-litre "boxer" engine
Just as with the GT86, the horizontally opposed "boxer" engine is a defining element of the new GR86, the heart of its performance and a key contributor to its low centre of gravity. The 16-valve DOHC four-cylinder unit uses the same cylinder block as before, but displacement has been increased from 1,998 to 2,387 cc. This has been achieved by increasing the bore diameter, from 86 to 94 mm.
Retaining the same high, 12.5:1 compression ratio, the engine delivers more power: maximum output has risen by around 17% from 200 DIN hp/147 kW to 234 DIN hp/172 kW at 7,000 rpm. As a result, the 0-100 km/h acceleration time has been cut by more than a second, to 6.3 seconds (6.9 seconds automatic). The GR86's maximum speed is 226 km/h with manual transmission, 216 km/h for the automatic.
Torque has also been increased, with performance tuned so that the peak 250 Nm is delivered earlier – at 3,700 rpm compared to 205 Nm at 6,400 – 6,600 rpm in the GT86. This helps deliver smooth, powerful acceleration up to high engine speeds, giving rewarding performance, particularly when accelerating out of a bend. Torque output is the same with both manual and automatic transmission.
Detailed changes have been made to reduce the engine's weight and ensure performance appropriate for the engine's higher output. These include thinner cylinder liners, optimisation of the water jacket and a switch from aluminium to a resin material for the rocker cover – which also reduces vibration. The connecting rods have been made stronger and the shape of the con-rod bearing and the combustion chamber have been optimised.
The D-4S fuel injection, which uses both direct and port injection, has been retuned for quicker response to the driver's throttle inputs. The direct injection has a cooling effect in the cylinders, which supports using a high compression ratio; port injection operates under light and medium engine loads, maximising efficiency.
The engine's breathing has also been improved with changes to the diameter and length of the intake manifold port, contributing to more linear torque delivery and acceleration. The air intake has been redesigned to optimise air flow. Further benefits are gained from a new fuel pump design, to ensure consistent flow when cornering, and a smaller high-speed water pump designed for performance at high speeds, with a better flow rate and reliability. A new water-cooled oil cooler has been added, while a thicker radiator structure has air guides to increase the amount of cooling air taken in.
In the exhaust system there is a new 5.6-litre centre pipe which generates a satisfying "growl" under acceleration, augmented by an Active Sound Control system that transmits the sound of the engine to the cabin.
To combat noise and vibration, the GR86 has new aluminium, liquid-filled engine mounts and a revised, stiffer oil pan structure with a new cross-rib shape.
The six-speed manual and automatic transmissions in the GR86 have both been revised in line with the engine's increased power and torque and to play their part in the car's essential fun-to-drive quality.
The manual system benefits from a new carbon synchroniser that makes for easier shifting into fourth gear. Using a new low-viscosity oil and new bearings ensures shift smoothness is maintained with the higher engine output. To fully exploit the car's performance potential, the driver can switch to Track mode, or switch off the Vehicle Stability Control. The shift lever has been redesigned for a short stroke and snug fit in the driver's hand.
The automatic transmission features paddle controls for the driver to take manual control of gear shifts. In Sport mode, the transmission automatically selects the optimum gear in line with the driver's use of the brake and throttle and the vehicle's dynamic behaviour. To ensure smooth harnessing of the engine's higher power, additional clutch discs and a new high-capacity torque converter have been introduced.
CHASSIS AND HANDLING
Lightweight, high-rigidity chassis
Superb handling was a defining hallmark of the GT86. With the GR86 Toyota wanted to deliver the thrill of a car that moves exactly how the driver wants it to.
To ensure the engine's extra power translates into rewarding handling and responsiveness, the chassis and body have been reworked with the use of light but high-strength materials to provide extra rigidity while reducing weight, and the addition of reinforcements in key areas.
At the front, diagonal cross-members have been added to the joints between the suspension and car's frame, improving load transmission from the front tyres and reducing lateral bending. High-strength fasteners have been introduced to connect the frame and the suspension mounts and the bonnet has a new internal diagonal frame, in place of the previous honeycomb design. With these measures, front body lateral rigidity has been increased by 60%.
At the rear, a full ring structure connects the upper and lower chassis and, as at the front, new fasteners linking the frame and suspension mounts give better handling under the G-forces generated when cornering. With the inner panel now connected to the platform, a continuous frame structure has been created. Overall body twisting rigidity has been increased by 50%.
The focus on weight reduction and bringing down the car's centre of gravity is reflected in the use of strong and lightweight materials in key areas. These include high-strength and hot-stamped steels and aluminium, which help control roll and pitch behaviour. Applying structural adhesives throughout the underbody adds to the taut, connected quality of the car's frame.
Aluminium is now used for the roof panel and front wings as well as the bonnet, with further weight savings from new front seat, silencer and propshaft designs. These are key in giving the GR86 a near-perfect 53:47 front/rear weight balance and making it one of the lightest four-seat sports cars on the market, with the lowest centre of gravity. In fact, the GR86 is almost equal in weight to the GT86, despite the addition of extra features for safety and collision protection.
The GR86 carries forward the suspension systems featured on the GT86 – front independent MacPherson struts and rear double wishbones - with performance tuned for an even higher level of response and stable handling. A Torsen limited-slip differential gives reassuring traction when cornering.
Shock absorber damping and coil spring characteristics have been optimised throughout to give the car planted, predictable handling. At the front, a rebound spring and an aluminium engine mount bracket have been added and the steering gearbox mount has been made more rigid.
With more torque being generated by the 2.4-litre engine, the rear suspension has been reinforced with the anti-roll bar now connected directly to the subframe to gain maximum stability.
The new electric power steering system has a 13.5:1 ratio and requires just 2.5 turns of the GR86's three-spoke steering wheel to move from lock to lock., giving easy manoeuvrability. The system has a new column-mounted integrated motor that reduces weight and takes up less space. The gear box mount has been made more rigid (see above), with hard rubber bushing and a reshaped mounting washer.
Ventilated disc brakes are fitted front and rear, with diameters of 294 and 290 mm respectively. Braking control systems – ABS, Brake Assist, Traction Control, Vehicle Stability Control, Hill-start Assist – are provided as standard, together with an emergency brake signal system.
Exterior and aerodynamics
The GR86's exterior design is an evolution of the taut, low-slung look of the GT86, expressing its classic front engine/rear-wheel drive set-up and adopting styling cues that reference some of Toyota's great sports cars of the past, such as the 2000GT and AE86 Corolla.
The overall dimensions are close to those of the GT86, but notably the height has been lowered by 10 mm (to 1,310 mm) and 5 mm have been added to the wheelbase (2,575 mm). The successful lowering of the centre of gravity is central to the car's handling and the driving experience – supported by a 5 mm lowering of the driver's hip-point.
The new LED headlights have an internal L-shaped arrangement like those on the GR Supra, while the new grille has a GR-exclusive G-motif mesh pattern. The front bumper moulding has a new textured finish that is functional as well as sporty, helping to reduce drag.
In side view, the powerful front wings and large rocker mouldings form side skirts, while the horizontally aligned underbody, running across the top of the wings and through the doorline, projects a strong front-to-rear posture. The rear wings are equally powerful in appearance, while the tapered rear cabin emphasises the car's wide stance and low centre of gravity. The rear light clusters have a strong three-dimensional design and blend into a moulding that runs across the width of the car.
A series of aerodynamic features has been introduced, including a front air dam and fully functioning air vents, created with TOYOTA GAZOO Racing's motorsport expertise. These are located behind the front wheel arches to manage airflow and reduce turbulence around the tyres. The new black-finished door mirrors have a curved design for aerodynamic efficiency, while fins added to the rear wheel arches and aero fins on the lower rear bumper help control the air flow over and away from the car's body, aiding stability. On high-grade models, a ducktail spoiler is added to the lower edge of the back door.
According to model grade, the GR86 features 17-inch machined 10-spoke alloy wheels with Michelin Primacy HP tyres, or 18-inch black rims, shod with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 rubber.
Interior – cabin and load space
The GR86's interior design goal was to deliver the best possible layout for usability and operation of the car's systems, with a strong horizontally configured instrument panel that gives the driver a wide field of vision and helps them focus on the business of driving. Throughout, there is a sense of harmony in the design.
Around the driver, function controls are designed and located for intuitive recognition and operation, including an air conditioning panel in the centre console with large LED-illuminated dials and piano key switches, and door armrests with integrated release handles. The functionality of the centre armrest has been improved with cup/small bottle holders, two USB ports and an AUX socket.
The new front sports seats feature supportive pads that are independent of each other, ensuring a slim design and good body-holding. A walk-in release lever on the front seat shoulder makes for easy access to the rear.
The interior colour-ways also reflect the driving focus – all black, with silver accents, or black with deep red upholstery details, stitching, carpets and door cards.
The rear seats can be folded down using release catches in the cabin, or a release strap in the boot. When folded, there is load space big enough to take four wheels – ideal for those driving their GR86 to and from track days.
MULTIMEDIA AND INFORMATION
The GR86's special sports car status is acknowledged in details such as GR branding in the start-up animations for the eight-inch centre touchscreen and the driver's seven-inch multi-information display.
The multimedia system has increased CPU computing power, giving faster response. Standard features include DAB reception, Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. USB ports and AUX socket are also provided for device connection and recharging. Equipped with a new Data Communications Module, the GR86 provides an eCall function in the event of an accident or emergency.
The driver's instrument binnacle features a multi-information display and to the left of the single-dial tachometer with central speed read-out. The display contents can be selected, reset and scrolled using switches on the steering wheel. In Sport mode, the meter gains red highlights.
When the driver switches to Track mode, a different display appears, designed with help from TOYOTA GAZOO Racing's professional drivers. The read-out shows a central bar display of the engine rpm, plus the selected gear, speed and oil and water temperatures, allowing the driver to instantly recognise the car's status and achieve better shift timing.
Toyota's development of its GR models – the GR Supra two-seat coupe, the rally-inspired GR Yaris and now the GR86 – fulfils its mission to use experience and know-how gained from motorsport to make ever-better cars for the road and to give people opportunities to enjoy the pure joys of driving.
The success of TOYOTA GAZOO Racing in worldwide competition provides a strong platform on which to build enthusiasm for Toyota among fans worldwide and to develop new technologies and techniques that can be transferred from racing and rallying to everyday motoring.
TOYOTA GAZOO Racing has won four drivers' and manufacturers' titles in the FIA World Endurance Championship since entering the competition in 2012 and has recorded four successive Le Mans 24 Hours victories up to 2021. The TOYOTA GAZOO Racing World Rally Team brought Toyota back to the World Rally Championship in 2017, since when it has achieved three drivers' and two manufacturers' titles with the Yaris WRC. TOYOTA GAZOO Racing also regularly competes at the top level in the Dakar Rally, the South Africa-based team claiming victory in 2019 with a specially prepared Hilux.

GR 86 (US-Spec)
Press Release US-Spec:
Track-tested, pro-driver approved, the all-new 2022 GR 86 earns a Gazoo Racing badge
Responsive and lightweight 2+2 sports coupe designed by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts
Increased rigidity, more power and torque, aerodynamic body elements, and new interior
2.4L flat-four boxer engine hits peak torque at lower RPMs, giving the feel of more linear acceleration
Complimentary one-year membership to the National Auto Sport Association (NASA), featuring a High Performance Driving Event with expert instruction
PLANO, Texas (June 2, 2021) – The car that marked the revival of Toyota's sportscar lineage will now give drivers even more of the agility, style and responsiveness they desire. For this round, the detail-obsessed Toyota Gazoo Racing team brings enhanced handling and exterior aerodynamics, increased power and an upgraded interior. These changes earn it a Gazoo Racing badge, joining Toyota's ever-growing, global sportscar line as the all-new 2022 GR 86.
With its wide stance and low center of gravity, the 2+2 rear-wheel drive coupe's handling changes come in the form of front- and rear-frame reinforcements that increase rigidity. Functional exterior air vents were also added to further support steering stability. Weight shaving details, such as aluminum roof panels and fenders, also kept it at a nimble curb weight of just over 2,800 lbs.
The 2.4L naturally aspirated, horizontally opposed four-cylinder boxer engine, brings the power upgrade – increasing from 205 to 228 hp and from 156 to 184 lb.-ft. of torque on the manual version. The power boost comes from tweaks like increased bore size, changes to the intake and exhaust systems, and optimization of the Toyota D-4S dual injection technology. Drivers will have the choice of a 6-speed manual (MT) or automatic transmission (AT).
Zero to 60 times have dropped from 7 to 6.1 seconds for the MT and from 8 to 6.6 seconds for the AT.
Available in two grades, GR 86 and GR 86 Premium, it will come in seven exterior color choices, including the aptly named Track bRED. The premium grade comes equipped with a rear duckbill spoiler, adding dynamic contours to the car's sporty feel.
The cabin gets upgraded front seats with a deep bucket design and side bolsters that keep driver and passenger supported during serious cornering. GR 86 Premium grade seats are upholstered in Alcantara with leather accents. Leather-trimmed driver touchpoints and silver-colored accents also add a race-inspired touch to the cabin.
Additional interior upgrades include a three-mode digital display, offering different information layouts for Normal, Sport or Track driving modes. An 8-inch Multimedia Touchscreen with six speakers comes on the standard grade, while an eight-speaker system comes standard on the Premium grade, and available Connected Services, Apple CarPlay® & Android Auto™ compatibility with NFC pairing, and a Sirius-XM® three-Month All Access trial brings drivers their tech fix.
Iconic Sportscar Design…Tweaked in the GR Garage
When the 86/Scion FR-S was introduced in 2012, Akio Toyoda's aim was to re-capture the spirit of Toyota's famed sports car from the 1980s and '90s. With a name in tribute to the mid-1980s AE86 known in Japan as the "hachi-roku" (meaning 8-6) and known in the U.S. as the Toyota Corolla GT-S, the 86/FR-S was developed to give sportscar purists an affordable, agile rear-drive sports coupe.
The new generation GR 86 takes cues from its "hachi-roku" forefather.
Its low overall height and hip point give it an athletic look. The fender tops extend horizontally to the beltline and give it a stance distinctive of front-engine, rear-wheel-drive sportscars. Its low, horizontal underbody and narrowed rear cabin combine to create a launch-ready appearance. Color choices include Track bRED, Trueno Blue, Neptune Blue, Halo White, Steel Grey, Pavement Grey and Raven Black
The move from a 2.0L to a 2.4L engine has increased displacement nearly 20%, from 1,998cc to 2,387cc. Thanks to that increase, GR 86 now has 228 hp and 184 lb.-ft. of peak torque, which it now hits at 3,700 rpm, the previous generation hit max torque at 6,600 rpm.
The result? The all-new GR 86 now delivers linear acceleration across a wider band of rpms, delivering a longer surge to drivers.
The front of the vehicle features a GR-specific Functional MATRIX "G Mesh" Grille, which fuses performance and expressiveness. Its angular LED headlights compliment the aerodynamic front aim dams and vents, with side sill spoilers to aid steering responsiveness and stability. And those vents? Well, we've placed ducts in the front bumper and wheel house, so air that's induced while driving is distributed to the wheel house and inside bumper, reducing air stagnation.
Additional "Hachi-roku" inspired elements take the form of its Torsen® limited-slip rear differential and RWD platform. With easy-to-control stability from a sport-tuned independent MacPherson® strut front and double wishbone rear suspension.
Mountain-road-ready stopping power is delivered by 11.6- and 11.4-inch vented front and rear brakes, and corner-chewing grip coming from Michelin Primacy HP® tires on 17-inch wheels on the GR 86, and Michelin Pilot Sport 4® tires aboard forged black 18-inch wheels on the Premium grade.
The Art & Science of "86-ness"
The magic of the classic AE-86 was in its famously responsive handling and throttle.
For the new GR 86, the design of the Boxer-4 allows for balanced maneuverability. The horizontal cylinders contribute to overall vehicle weight control and allow for ultra-low placement in the engine bay, giving the car a well-grounded confidence at a curb weight of just over 2,800 lbs.
The 2.4L engine's bore and stroke dimensions have increased from 86 mm x 86 mm to 94 mm x 86 mm, and displacement is up from 1998cc to 2387cc. The engine retains the Toyota-innovated D-4S Dual Injection technology system that combines direct fuel injection and port-injection technologies, while the port injection and in-cylinder injection have been optimized. The direct-injection system provides a cooling effect in the cylinders, which allows the engine to use a high 12.5:1 compression ratio for maximum power. Meanwhile, the port fuel injectors come into play during light- and medium-load conditions to help maximize combustion efficiency.
It gives drivers an experience that only a naturally aspirated engine can deliver – one so scientifically refined, it brings drivers enough power to keep them engaged with a throttle that responds to their every whim.
The automatic and manual transmissions have also received the GR treatment.
The six-speed automatic transmission now employs adaptive controls that sense brake and accelerator operation, automatically shifting to the optimal gear so the driver can experience just the right amount of control. Torque capacity has also increased, as well as the number of clutch discs.
The manual transmission now uses low-viscosity oil and strut bearings that enhance clutch capacity and gear strength. These materials support the higher torque output of the 2.4L boxer engine. The essence of GR 86-ness is also captured through a redesigned, low catch manual gear box that delivers smooth, enjoyable control for manual transmission aficionados.
Add it all together and you get the agility, responsiveness and easy-to-drive feeling that equals "86-ness."
Track Ready Performance, Everyday Comfort
GR 86's driver-focused cockpit is designed to elevate the daily driving experience while also offering a simplicity that keeps drivers squarely focused on the road. Start up the GR 86, and you're greeted by a 7-inch Thin Film Transistor (TFT) screen with an opening animation sequence inspired by the piston movements of the GR 86's horizontally opposed engine.
The display has an all-new three-mode digital instrumentation with Normal, Sport and Track modes. While in Track mode, drivers get real-time readouts of gear position, engine speed, water temperature and oil temperature.
The horizontally configured instrument panel now has LCD toggle displays with silver trimmed dials that give the cabin a modern, race-inspired feel. A leather-trimmed steering wheel (AT only: with paddle shifters) and leather-wrapped parking brake handle and gear shift boot also add refinement.
Standard sport front bucket seats with side bolsters firmly hold drivers in place around each corner, with upgraded leather trimmed sport seating and aluminum pedals on the Premium model. The GR 86 also brings everyday usability, with 2+2 seating that offers the versatility of fold down rear seats.
Tunes, Tech, and Safety
Toyota GR 86 comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen display and six-speaker audio system, with eight speakers on the Premium model. It includes Bluetooth® for hands-free phone capability, a SiriusXM® three-month All Access trial, wired Apple CarPlay® & Android Auto™ compatibility, two USB ports and one auxiliary port, and trial access to a suite of available connected services (with additional subscription).
GR 86 features Toyota's Smart Key System (on both doors) with Push Button Start and adds an alarm to the anti-theft system. It lights the night with Standard LED headlights and available adaptive front lighting on the Premium grade.
All grades of the GR 86 come with Toyota's Star Safety System™, which includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), and Brake Assist (BA). It also includes Smart Stop Technology® (SST), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Track Mode and Hill Start Assist Control (HAC). Additional safety features include LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) with lower anchors on outboard rear seats and tether anchors on all rear seats and a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). Seven airbags are standard on all models, with the addition of a driver's knee airbag.
The Automatic Transmission version comes with active safety standard that includes Pre-Collision Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Throttle Management, Lane Departure Warning, Sway Warning, Lead Vehicle Start Alert, Cruise Control and High Beam Assist.
Complimentary 1-year NASA Membership
Every 2022 GR 86 comes with a complimentary one-year membership to the National Auto Sport Association (NASA). As part of this membership, GR 86 owners will enjoy a host of benefits, including one free High Performance Driving Event (HPDE) and discounted admission to NASA-sanctioned events.

Belloccia, la vedo più centrata rispetto alla precedente.
Comunque è sempre un piacere vedere case "generaliste" che si buttano ancora su questo genere di auto ❤ nel mio mondo alternativo, Ford avrebbe presentato una vera erede coupè di Puma, non quel bacarozzo..
BRZ e GR86 (prima GT86) mi sono sempre piaciute per la loro semplicità e purezza sportiva.
Nettamente meglio queste rispetto alla Supra che ha fatto un uso eccessivo di botulino.

Atopy or atopic syndrome is the predisposition to developing hypersensitivity toward certain allergens. People who suffer from atopic syndrome have an elevated allergen specific IgE antibody within their blood stream. This results in an increased risk of allergies, which then manifest themselves as the usual allergy symptoms.
What atopy refers to is that children who have one parent that is an allergy sufferer, have a 60% chance of also having allergies. If both parents have allergies, then the chance rises to 80%. Just because you may be atopic, however, doesn't mean that you will end up with allergies. Environmental factors play a great role in the sensitization of people with atopy to certain allergens.
Some believe that society's increased tendency to keep overly clean has contributed to immune system sensitization against allergens. The hypothesis is that lacking the proper stimuli to develop normally, the immune system instead is sensitized against non threatening allergen particles.
Corticosteroids in the form of creams can help control itching and rash from atopic eczema, but the best solution is to identify and avoid the allergen that causes your symptoms.

urges state to domestic policy
A peacebuilding organization, Foundation for Peace Professionals simply known as PeacePro has commended the federal government of Nigeria, particularly the Federal Ministry of Youths and other stakeholders for their efforts in the process of adopting the global action plan on youth, peace and security.
The organization also called on state government to follow the lead of the federal government, while raising critical question on the implementation of the policy, which it said should not go in the way of policy before it, such as the conflict assessment of Nigeria.
In a statement by an Executive Director of PeacePro, Mr Abdulrazaq Hamzat, the group stated that, adopting United Nations action plan on youth, peace and security should be the beginning of a long journey, not an end.
Recall that United Nations passed the resolution on Youths, Peace and Security in December 2015 in recognition of the strategic importance of youths in global peace and security.
According to Hamzat, being the second country in the world to adopt the resolution is a good thing for Nigeria, but this alone is not good enough.
"While federal government has shown a good example by domesticating the United Nations resolution in Nigeria, state government across the federation should waste no time in following the steps of the federal government by adopting the policy in their respective states and local government"
Hamzat also noted, the impact of this policy can only be felt if it goes beyond mere policy.
"Unlike previous policy, such as the strategic conflict assessment developed by the Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution (IPCR), which didn't get required political will for implementation, the national action on youth, peace and security should not suffer similar faith"
All over the world, youths contribute to innovative solutions, invest in new alternative spaces and fight the status quo, as highlighted in the report of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) on the leading role of young people in preventing and combating violent extremism, but peacebuilding is a collaborative game and all parties must be willing to play their part to achieve positive result.
We therefore urge government at all levels to give life to the policy by providing enabling platform for the implementation.

Kony – Order from Above movie screening starts ahead of Oscars nomination
23rd September 2019 EABW EditorComment(0)
It was all about pomp and glamour as 'Kony-Order From Above' movie premiered its official regional screening at Century Cinemax on Acacia Mall.
The highly attended screening started with red carpet and cocktail at around 6 pm before sending revellers that included among others Tooro King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru and Aruu County legislator Odonga Otto to a fun-filled experience.
Steven Ayeny, the movie director thanked Ugandans for the overwhelming attendance.
"The movie Premiere was a success, people turned up in large numbers. It became so emotional and it was so hard to hold my tears. I apologize that there was a technical issue that was sorted. I want to thank Uganda, UCC, Ministry Of Foreign Affairs, Phaneroo, UGarol, APT communications".
"Wow, it was amazing! People loved it and their response was so positive, King Oyo, some MPs, UPDF, UCC guys were all there. It was the powerful premiere expected, the cinema hall was too full, some people stood, others sat on the carpet," said Simon Nyahahuma, one of the people who watched the movie.
"Very Inspiring. By God's Grace I am buying another 10 tickets for people," a one Joe Rwabose noted.
Steven Ayeny (Blue Suit) the brain behind the movie and fellow actors during the premiering at Century Cinemax on Acacia Mall.
Despite the excitement, a sombre mood found its way into the hearts of the merrymakers when it was disclosed that the Kony role Lead Actor Chanpapo Godfrey was unable to evidence the successful story of the movie he acted; he passed on last year.
The premiere was also used to honour the fallen star. Chanpapo's relative who described the deceased as a fighter revealed that he died of organ failure.
Steven Ayeny, who was one of the actors and the brainchild behind the movie, described the Kony Role Actor as a man with so much talent, passion and calmness both on-screen and in real life.
"The screening became so emotional and it was so hard to hold my tears." "So sad 'Mr Kony' passed on. A very emotional moment in the end" said Comfort Asimwe.
Meanwhile, the movie is still in cinemas for six more consecutive days till September 26, 2019.
Kony-Order From Above was selected by the Uganda Academy Selection Committee (USASC) as Uganda's official entry for the 2020 Oscar Awards in the category of Best International film.
This marked the very first time Uganda is submitting an entry to the prestigious awards following the launch of the seven-member UASC in July this year.
Given out annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) in the United States of America (USA), the Oscars are an international recognition of excellence in cinematic achievements as assessed by the Academy's voting membership.
According to Godfrey Musinguzi, UASC Chairperson, the seven-day screening is part of the eligibility criteria, a selected movie needs to undergo ahead of October 1, 2019, Oscar submission deadline for all country entries.
"We implore all the relevant government agencies, cultural entities, the media and every Ugandan to support the film to meet all its outstanding requirements, including showing at the cinema for at least seven consecutive days, before the deadline," said Musinguzi.
