THE BMW K 1600 GTL.
Ride on. And on and on. Glide into the horizon in style and elegance on this luxurious high-performance touring motorcycle. The new BMW K 1600 GTL motorcycle is the pinnacle of high quality and sheer comfort, boasting the legendary straight-six engine. Now standard equipped with the latest generation of Dynamic ESA and ABS Pro. Make your elegant entrance with the newly redesigned panels. Stay calm and collected in any weather condition and at any distance. On your own or with a partner: enjoy superior control and effortless steering in all your comings and goings. Travelling with the K 1600 GTL takes you to a new dimension - stylish, powerful, luxurious - a first class experience awaits you.
The K 1600 GTL design has received a first-class upgrade. The newly designed side panels, radiator grilles, tank trim and storage compartment help you make an even more elegant entrance. Enhancing details like the footrest has helped put the final touches on its exquisite look. Distinctive elements such as Duolever front wheel suspension, the highly visible straight-six engine, the innovative Xenon headlight and the chassis remain pioneers of style. Together with the redesigned front section, including mirror and windscreen, a uniquely elegant and dynamic sculpted alignment has been achieved.
This luxurious, comprehensive package does not only boast a first-class design, it is also an enticingly engaging ride for the roads ahead.
A first-class engine: the legendary straight-six engine offers an unparalleled smooth ride and the most outstanding riding performance in the luxury tour sector. Its 118 kW (160 PS) output and maximum torque of 175 Nm at 5250 rpm supplies the perfect dynamic thrust forward. And 70% of the torque is already achieved at 1500 rpm.
The standard equipped Dynamic ESA adds a new dimension to your riding experience. Within milliseconds, the highly-sensitive sensor box detects riding conditions and regulates the damper in the suspension. This guarantees the ideal damper settings in any riding situation. Even at an incline, levels of damping comfort that were previously unimaginable have now been achieved, resulting in an extremely steady ride.
Just climb on and relax.
The K 1600 GTL also offers unprecedented comfort. Its enticing features include an enormous amount of space and excellent accessibility. Carefully thought-out and easily accessible storage space solutions focus on the comfort of the rider, making the K 1600 GTL an uncompromising choice in touring quality. Riding with a partner on a long journey is a true pleasure thanks to a variety of detailed solutions such as central locking, seat heating, an electrically adjustable windscreen and a range of seat heights.
Various riding modes and dynamic traction control ensure increased comfort. Added to this is the Multi Controller: an essential operating concept which allows riders to navigate through the on-board menu conveniently, without removing their hands from the handlebars or their eyes from the road. Nothing can stop you on your relaxed ride on the K 1600 GTL toward new horizons. The bike with never-ending features - a series of luxurious equipment.
For the best road contact.
The standard Dynamic ESA once again significantly increases the first-class riding comfort of the K 1600 GTL. It ensures the best traction, safety and the highest level of comfort: dynamic ESA controls the suspension depending on the driving condition and riding manoeuvres by automatically adjusting to the detected conditions. In doing so, it ensures significantly improved contact between road and tyre, even when in a lean. Enabling riding characteristics which are always stable and an added boost in comfort and safety - especially on those long tours.
The standard setting "Road" - takes you comfortably over all unevenness. With the "dynamic" setting, a generally firmer damping action is selected: for sporty dynamic riding.
Reverse assistant: effortlessly manoeuvring and getting out of parking spaces.
Simply reverse. Steep paths and narrow space conditions at popular look-out points or parking spots are no issue with the convenient torque control assist (TCA). Leaving you with only a smile for parking and manoeuvring. Activate the reverse assist by putting the bike into neutral and activating the assist function using the button on the left handlebar. As soon as the R is shown on the display and started by pressing it, you can glide out of your parking space with ease and get going on to your next destination with ample momentum.
Xenon headlight: puts everything into the right light.
The standard xenon headlights are double as bright and consume 30% less power than conventional halogen headlamps. They ensure consistent illumination of the road surface - particularly at night and with poor visibility. At the same time, they make you easier to be seen as well. A cylindrical bulb shield on the reflector prevents the light bulb from dazzling other road users.
The light follows the wheel. Adaptive Headlight.
The adaptive headlight, which is available as an optional accessory, optimally illuminates the road when negotiating bends. A servo motor in the main headlight compensates for the motorcycle's banking angle when cornering, orienting the light at the optimum angle for the road. For the rider, this represents an enormous increase in active driving safety, particularly when taking corners at night.
Cases & storage compartments: more space for your luggage.
Mount and enjoy in a relaxed manner.
Whether you are touring or simply going for your daily ride, the installed cases and storage compartments on the K 1600 GTL provide sufficient space for everything you need to store. From the day-to-day essentials, equipment and clothing, and even holiday mementos.
The optional topcase impresses with its convenient interior and the interior lighting fitted as standard. Your passenger will love the small comfortable backrest. The standard colours of the motorcycle are perfectly integrated into the elegant appearance of the K 1600 GTL. The optional storage compartment for the topcase lid provides space for all travel essentials, documents and paperwork.
The liners give you even more space and order for your touring case. With the carry handle and the - also removable - shoulder strap, it is the ideal companion for a cruise through town.
Keyless ride and central locking.
Extraordinary features for increased comfort.
Keyless ride and central locking make your life easier and quickly become companions you won't want to do without.
Thanks to Keyless Ride, the mechanical key becomes superfluous so you no longer have to spend time inconveniently looking for it before you set off. It is sufficient simply to carry your key in your jacket pocket in order to unlock and start up your motorcycle.
The central locking ensures that the contents of the storage compartments and additional cases are protected from thieving fingers when you lock your bike - all this simply by pressing a button on the handlebars. Enabling you to set out on an excursion after dismounting even faster.
Clutchless shifting thanks to pro shift assistant.
This is luxury - above all a plus for easy handling: the shift assistant Pro was originally developed for racing sport. Adapted for the touring sector, it allows you to shift gears without using the clutch in almost any load or rev range. During acceleration, the throttle grip remains open and ensures swift and relaxed shifting. When downshifting with closed throttle grip, the system automatically provides double-declutching and uses this to downshift perfectly.
This ensures that your clutch hand is relieved and remains relaxed even after long tours. In addition, shift time is reduced as compared to a gearshift using the clutch: for even more dynamics and comfort.
1) According to guideline VO (EU) 168/2013 with all fluids, with standard equipment and fuelled with at least 90% of usable tank volume (GT without case).

The QALO Team: Peru with Nicole
Written By: Melody Erhuy
Nicole, QALO's Marketing Content Coordinator, took a chance on an adventure and wound up spending two weeks in Peru. It wasn't an involved planning process, more like an opportunity that she was simply brave enough to take.
One of my friends from college one day asked me, 'Want to go with me to Peru?' and I said "sure" and the rest is history. Truly, it was that simple," said Nicole.
Since Peru is so huge, the ladies tried to spend a bit of time in each area of interest. A desert oasis for some sand boarding and dune buggy riding in the south, the hot and humid rainforest along the Amazon River in the north, the cold (but beautiful) Sacred Valley near Cusco, and the piece de resistance… Machu Picchu!
For Nicole, the Inca Trail was one of the standout experiences of the trip. It's a large elevation gain, however, and she does admit to feeling some altitude sickness while spending three days in Cusco before making the big climb. Luckily, by the time the climb happened, both girls felt fine and had a wonderful time.
"The Inca Trail was 100% the highlight of this trip. Four days and three nights spent in the Andes Mountains? There is nothing like it! Each day we were blown away… by the sights, the wildlife, the food … I have never been on such a glamorous camping trip in my whole life!"
For Nicole, the pinnacle of the trip was the moment that she arrived in Machu Picchu. It was an early morning that started with a 2:50 am hike, a 2-hour nap on the ground outside the gates of the park, and culminated with a flat out run to the Sun Gate. The result though? It all paid off. Nicole says, "We were the first ones there and managed to get a breathtaking view of the city of Machu Picchu and the beautiful Huayna Picchu Mountain before the fog and the crowds rolled in. Truly, an unforgettable memory and an unforgettable view."
So, what advice does Nicole have for others looking for a great adventure? It's pretty simple, actually.
"Listen to the advice that is given by your guides and tour companies. We both opted to get altitude sickness medication from our doctors beforehand, and took them during our time in high elevation, even after being told by many here in the states, 'You're young, you won't need them.'"
Nicole goes on to say that enjoying downtime added to her overall experience. Be sure to strike up conversations with locals, something else she highly recommends doing.
"While we were in the Amazon jungle, we were able to get to know our guides who had been raised along the river. They had so many wonderful stories to share, they taught us the tricks to catching piranhas (I CAUGHT A PIRANHA - IT WAS SO COOL!), and I now feel like I could survive if I ever ended up on that TV show "Naked & Afraid."
Nicole says she was fortunate to be raised by parents who love the outdoors. She spent a lot of time camping, traveling, and hiking as a kid and the adventurous spirit never left her. Despite all of that early travel, this was the first year that Nicole really attempted international travel. But now she has the bug!
"I already find myself being drawn to areas that allow for more exploration than they do just the classic tourist sightseeing." She says that she's looking for camping and climbing as opposed to just sunbathing at resorts.

Hacker Rewarded with $500,000 and a CSA Job by Poly Network
Blockchain crypto currency Poly Network technology
21/08/2021 Anushka Agnihotri
Lately, it has been a turbulence-filled time for Poly Networks. The company creates software to handle the exchange between different blockchains for cryptocurrencies and other commodities.
The company announced last week, by leveraging its security weaknesses, that a fraudster took hundreds of millions of dollars off its network in digital tokens, worth $600 million (roughly Rs 4,462 crores). But the same company has offered a Chief Security Advisor job role plus a sum of $500,000 to the crypto hacker involved in the heist that reaped over $600 million (roughly Rs 4,462 crores) last week.
The criminal has started handing back digital money – and at least $260m of tokens were repaid after Poly Network encouraged netizens, crypto-exchanges, and miners to disallow the transactions containing the wallet credentials of the criminal. The business claimed that they have maintained communication with the suspect, known as Mr. White Hat.
It is believed to be the biggest crypto theft ever, overtaking the US$534.8 million in digital coins seized from the Japanese exchange Coincheck during a cyberattack in 2018 and the approximated $450 million bitcoin crypto theft from Tokyo exchange Mt. Gox in 2014.
"It is important to reiterate that Poly Network has no intention of holding Mr. White Hat legally responsible, as we are confident that Mr. White Hat will promptly return full control of the assets to Poly Network and its users," the organization said. "While there were certain misunderstandings in the beginning due to poor communication channels, we now understand Mr. White Hat's vision for Defi and the crypto world, which is in line with Poly Network's ambitions from the very beginning — to provide interoperability for ledgers in Web 3.0."
As a bug bounty prize on Ethereum Poly Network awarded him $500,000. However, he stated that he wouldn't accept the money, yet the awarded money was sent to his wallet. Additionally, the firm has advanced one step further and offered him the Chief Security Advisor position in their firm.
Nevertheless, the business stated it completely acknowledges the intentions of Mr. White Hat to deny the cash and transfer it to people who strive to enhance the technology of Blockchain. "We will still transfer this $500,000 bounty to a wallet address approved by Mr. White Hat so that he can use it for the cause of cybersecurity," Poly Network added.
It is not known if the so-called Mr. White Hat will accept the employment offer or not. It doesn't appear probable right now, making judgments on the messages included in Ethereum transactions made between the two parties. He is still yet to give up $238 million to their knowledge, though he says he is not prepared to give the keys back to the wallet that stores the cash. He also stated earlier that Poly Network was targeted for fun and that its programming was fragile.
"We are counting on more experts like Mr. White Hat to be involved in the future development of Poly Network since we believe that we share the vision to build a secure and robust distributed system," it said in a statement. "Also, to extend our thanks and encourage Mr. White Hat to continue contributing to security advancement in the blockchain world together with Poly Network, we cordially invite Mr. White Hat to be the Chief Security Advisor of Poly Network."

OPEC output falls as Gulf nations step up delivery of oil cuts
Under the new agreement, which takes effect from this month, the 23 nations in the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies (OPEC+) group promised to extend their overall reductions by 500,000 barrels a day to 1.7 million.
Bloomberg/Stefan Wermuth
Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries' (OPEC) output declined in December 2019 as several Arabian Gulf producers stepped up their implementation of cutbacks aimed at balancing global oil markets.
The UAE, Saudi Arabia and Iraq reduced production in December 2019, the final month of a round of restrictions by the cartel before it presses on with new—and even deeper—curbs this year.
Bloomberg reported that output from OPEC fell by 90,000 barrels a day to 29.55 million in December 2019.
The campaign by OPEC and its allies to tighten supplies shored up global crude markets in 2019, pushing Brent prices up 23 per cent despite a flood of new American shale oil and fragile fuel demand around the world. The coalition agreed earlier in December 2019 to deepen its curbs to prevent a new surplus forming in Q1 2020.
Saudi Arabia, OPEC's biggest member, is already making strides toward its new target. With 9.83 million barrels a day of production, the Kingdom has cut more than twice the amount pledged under last year's deal and is well on its way to the new, self-imposed quota of 9.7 million barrels.
Similarly, the UAE curbed more than required under the expiring accord, trimming by 60,000 barrels a day to 3.04 million.
Iraq also fulfilled its commitments by cutting 60,000 barrels a day in December, but with an overall production rate of 4.65 million a day it's only just down to the starting point for last year's cutbacks.
Russia, the biggest producer in the OPEC+ alliance, has similarly shown a mixed performance. Its output of crude and condensate hit a post-Soviet high last year despite pledges to reduce, as Moscow proffered a succession of reasons why it could not fully implement the agreed curbs.

Defeat for STLFC
Plymouth Argyle LFC 1 Swindon Town Ladies 0
Swindon made the long journey to Plymouth on Sunday in rain, sleet and snow but went down by a goal to nil.
On a poor pitch and in strong winds, the ladies could not play their normal passing game and battled hard against a team who were in the women's Southern Premier League last season.
There was a controversial moment in the first half as a Plymouth player appeared to kick out at a Swindon player but the referee deemed a yellow card to be sufficient punishment.
The ladies conceded a goal in first half stoppage time after a defensive mix-up.
With the pitch not helping the cause, Swindon had to make two changes after the break due to injury but they kept pushing for an equaliser.
Before the end, the home side were reduced to ten players after a two-footed tackle on Town's Amy Baker. With Baker no longer able to continue as a result, Swindon had to battle on with ten players themselves having made all their substitutions but could not find a way through the Plymouth back line.
Swindon Town Ladies are back in action next Sunday when they travel to Melksham LFC on in the County Cup Semi Final.

Guy Lists 8 Global Problems You Don't See In Front Pages And It Goes Viral
Social Issues3 years ago
anonymous and
James Caunt
Did you know that almost all of the media that the average American consumes – including 24-hour news stations, newspapers, publishing houses, Internet utilities, and even video game developers – are in the hands of just six media companies?
This concentration of media into the hands of a powerful few has been called a "threat to democracy and innovation," whilst at the same time giving the average person an "illusion of choice" where there is actually very little. These corporations are under no obligation to report impartially and present consumers with the truth – they often promote what best suits their own aims and agendas.
"With the country's widest disseminators of news, commentary, and ideas firmly entrenched among a small number of the world's wealthiest corporations, it may not be surprising that their news and commentary is limited to an unrepresentative, narrow spectrum of politics," writes Ben Bagdikian in his book 'The New Media Monopoly.'
Is it any wonder then, that some of humanity's most pressing concerns – those of rapid and uncontrolled environmental disasters, are kept out of the headlines? These wealthy and powerful media moguls have wealthy and powerful benefactors, many of whom have accumulated their fortunes from the relentless plundering of the Earth's natural resources. These people have no interest in a greener, better educated and more empathetic world and will actively work to distract us from the true extent of the global problems that our current path is causing.
Heck, even the current administration is censoring warnings and blocking their own experts from publishing data about climate change, and don't get me started on the situation in Brazil. What hope do we have when these powerful vested interests are intent on continuing their destructive ways?
Image credits: ClimateBen
Luckily, we still have a free and open internet (for now at least) and the truth on global warming and pressing social issues can only be hidden for so long. Climate Ben is one of many good folks online who is doing the job that the 'big 6' mega-media conglomerations are not, and keeping us aware of what is really going in the world.
Rather than ignoring the message while trying to shoot the messenger, Ben's bad news is fully-sourced and backed by science, the same science that has a 97% consensus that humans are causing global warming, for example.
It's time we free ourselves from this media bubble and begin to actively search for knowledge and answers, instead of trusting that the truth will be delivered to us on a plate! Because more often than not, it most certainly won't. Diversify your media consumption and always remember to question a story's source and possible motivations.
In the famous words of Fox Mulder: "The truth is out there…"
(You just gotta go find it!)
It is well-documented that the delicate eco-systems of the oceans, which cover 71% of the Earth's surface, are being negatively affected by human behavior. We are fishing too much, contaminating even the deepest depths with our plastics, causing global warming – which is messing with things like the food chain, ocean currents and acidification, and encroaching on the last refuges of marine wilderness.
Scientists, backed by data and research, have been warning about the extent of environmental damage and the resulting biological annihilation for some time now – over 25 years in fact. The situation has become so severe that we are now in the midst of the 'sixth mass extinction,' something signaled by the huge vertebrate population losses and declines that we are currently witnessing.
Agriculture has enabled human beings to become the Earth's truly dominant species and lift us out of short, savage lives as hunter-gatherers. However, while modern industrial agriculture is good at feeding populations it is not sustainable at its current rate.
We have treated farming like an extractive industry, and now a third of the planet's land is severely degraded. Fertile soil is being lost at the rate of 24bn tonnes a year – according to a United Nations-backed study that calls for a shift away from destructively intensive agriculture – and we aren't getting any of it back unless we change our farming practices.
Megafauna, think species like the Western gorilla, black rhino and Bengal tiger are on the verge of extinction because of human activities leading to habitat loss, persecution, and exploitation. Under a business-as-usual scenario, conservation scientists will soon be busy writing obituaries for species and subspecies of megafauna as they vanish from the planet – we are losing them just as science is discovering their essential ecological roles.
Over 40% of insect species are threatened with extinction, with habitat loss by conversion to intensive agriculture being the main driver of the declines. Agro-chemical pollutants, invasive species and climate change are additional causes, and this loss of insect diversity and abundance is expected to provoke cascading effects on food webs and to jeopardize entire ecosystems.
So in an attempt to produce as much food as quickly and efficiently as we possibly can, we are in fact killing the goose that lays the golden egg.
Climate Ben believes that the "vast majority" of political commentators "seldom or never mention the Ecological Emergency," and so uses the power of social media like Twitter to tag and link them to important articles and journals that report the latest scientific findings.
https://twitter.com/GretaThunberg/status/1056171209874948098
"Earth's sixth mass extinction episode has proceeded further than most assume. The massive loss of populations is already damaging the services ecosystems provide to civilization. When considering this frightening assault on the foundations of human civilization, one must never forget that Earth's capacity to support life, including human life, has been shaped by life itself."
"All signs point to ever more powerful assaults on biodiversity in the next two decades, painting a dismal picture of the future of life, including human life."
https://twitter.com/ClimateBen/status/1104689919157506049
"The inevitable has happened. Microplastics have already been found in birds and fish and whales, so it should have come as no surprise that they have now been discovered in humans. To be specific but indelicate, tiny plastic particles and fibers have been found in the stool of eight people who provided samples as part of a pilot study."

That George Carlin quote was funny. He had other quotes that were just as funny: ""Did you ever think about the arithmetic?" he goes on. "The planet has been here 4-1/2 billion years. We've been here, what, 100,000, maybe 200,000? And we've only been engaged in heavy industry for a little over 200 years. Two hundred years vs. 4-1/2 billion. And we have the conceit to think that somehow we are a threat? That somehow we are gonna put in jeopardy this beautiful little green ball that's just floating around the sun. The planet has been through a lot worse than us. The planet isn't going anywhere — we are."

I live in Hawaii in a very "non-tourist" area. Yet when I walk the dog on our beach, you'd be saddened beyond belief at the amount of trash I pick up. The waves often roll right up to our fence and leave behind rocks, shells, seaweed, and trash. And when we have strong rain it's even worse. It is not unusual to see the local neighbors walking the beach with bags collecting the debris, down to pea sized plastic. The worst is the plastic, it's very sad. Litter has always been a pet-peeve for me. To give me some peace... I am including a pic of a Hawaiian Monk Seal basking in the sun about 6 doors down.

I do not live in Hawaii, but I believe that the world does not belong only to humanity or to the place we live.

These elegant, festive holiday treats pack a grown-up rum punch and require no butter, no eggs, no flour, and no baking.
We wanted a no-bake cookie recipe that would be a tasty addition to the holiday dessert table. This Crunchy Spiced Rum Balls recipe produced elegant cookies with a unique flavor of spiced rum (though regular rum works, too). Soaking the raisins in the rum allowed them to plump up and absorb the rum's complexity, which enhanced the rum balls' flavor.

Best Place To See Cherry Blossom: Fukuoka Castle 福岡城 - Viva La Highstreet!
Finally, the season of beautiful sakura and hanami parties is back! The sakura front, that is the line of blooming trees across the islands of Japan, begins in the most southern islands of Okinawa around February, it then moves up through the Japan, finally ending in Hokkaido in May. This gives us a plenty of time to fit in a lot of hanami parties in our to do lists.
I went to Fukuoka Castle when the blossoms were in full bloom. It is one of the best sakura spots I have ever visited! The park and castle are particularly popular during cherry blossom season when a big festival is held there. About a thousand cherry trees of 18 varieties are planted in Maizuru Park among the ruins of Fukuoka Castle. The spacious park provides lots of green space for hanami parties and spectacular views from the observation platform. The castle grounds are beautiful, quiet and serene. The castle has not had any restoration yet so it feels authentic and old. There are only remains, but still so impressive and has an old world charm to it. Among the few surviving or reconstructed castle buildings are some gates and guard towers, scattered across the castle grounds. The beautiful combination yet contrast of the castle ruins and the cherry blossoms are breathtaking.
A number of walking paths are lined with cherry trees so that visitors can walk through a tunnel of flowers, and there are also plenty of lawned areas for holding hanami parties under the blossoms. We were there on a Sunday afternoon and the Maizaru Park gardens surrounding the castle walls were full of picnickers, sitting on plastic sheets, drinking beer and having a lovely time under the beautiful sakura trees.
The cherry blossoms and the castle walls are lit up at night from 18:00 to 22:00 during the sakura season and you can enjoy the blossoms in a little different atmosphere than daytime. Also, there are a variety of food stalls so that you don't remain hungry.
Fukuoka Castle was the biggest castle in Kyushu. Now it is a ruined castle in the center of Fukuoka city that dates from the early Edo Period. Fukuoka Castle was built in the beginning of the 17th century by Kuroda Nagamasa, who was appointed lord of the surrounding Chikuzen feudal domain (part of today's Fukuoka Prefecture). The Kuroda clan ruled from the castle for more than two centuries until the abolition of the feudal system in 1870.
The best time to visit the castle ruins is usually between late March and early April, when Maizuru Park turns into the city's most pleasant spot for cherry blossom viewing.
Fukuoka is also renowned for tonkotsu ramen so do not miss out on it while you are there.

Boy, 8, awarded $6K after bizarre IS accusation
AN eight-year-old boy was awarded $A6300 after being accused by his schoolteacher of supporting the Islamic State terrorist group.
The young boy wore a T-shirt to class with a slogan saying "I want to be like Abu Bakr al-Siddique", who is a prominent figure in Islam.
But his teachers assumed the fandom was directed at Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the brutal leader of the militant terrorist organisation, and reported the child to social services, The Sun reports.
The boy was then questioned by social workers, who his mother said recorded a warning against him.
She said social services had spoken to the boy about deradicalisation.
The wrongfully accused terrorist sympathiser, who is now 11, is said to have been upset by the incident and is now too afraid to speak up at school.
The payout was made by a council in East London for breaching the 1988 Human Rights Act.
The borough declined the The Sun's request for comment citing confidentiality.
Earlier this week, an Islamic State terrorist who helped execute one of the worst terror attacks in French history was been awarded compensation in jail due to a breach of his privacy.
Belgian-born Salah Abdeslam, 29, was awarded 500 euros ($A800) in compensation after the level of surveillance he was under in jail was deemed illegal.
Leader of the political party France Arise N. Dupont-Aignan described the decision as "shameful".
Believed to be the sole survivor of the group that carried out a series of attacks in Paris in November 2015, Abdeslam has been in the Fleury-Mérogis prison - where he was under 24-hour CCTV surveillance - since April 2016.
But according to a new book, Le Journal de Frank Berton, written by L'Obs magazine journalist Elsa Vigoroux, a court in Versailles deemed that level of surveillance illegal and he was awarded compensation.
His lawyer, Frank Berton, challenged the level of surveillance, saying it violated the constitution that preserves the right to privacy.
Mr Berton argued the system reflected "a serious lack of knowledge of the right to respect for private life", deeming it an "attack on individual freedom".
After winning the case, Mr Berton was asked to provide Abdeslam's bank details, but it's understood the prisoner has not touched the cash.
Abdeslam was linked to a group of IS suicide bombers that targeted the Bataclan theatre during a rock concert, the exterior of the Stade de France sports arena in 2015 and random cafes and restaurants.
It is regarded as the worst terror attack on French soil since World War II, leaving 130 people dead and more than 410 others wounded.
Abdeslam had already received a 20-year prison sentence in Belgium for taking part in a shootout with police in Brussels in 2016.
His brother, Brahim Abdeslam, was also involved in the attack and died while setting off a bomb in a cafe.

Emery Molyneux (  ; morto em julho de 1598) foi um fabricante elisabetano inglês de globos, instrumentos matemáticos e material bélico. Seus globos terrestres e celestes, publicados pela primeira vez em 1592, foram os primeiros a serem fabricados na Inglaterra e os primeiros a serem produzidos por um inglês.

Molyneux foi um matemático reconhecido e produtor de vários instrumentos matemáticos, como o compasso e os relógios de areia. Ele se familiarizou com muitos homens de destaque da época, incluindo o escritor Richard Hakluyt e os matemáticos Robert Hues e Edward Wright. Ele também conhecia os exploradores Thomas Cavendish, Francis Drake, Walter Raleigh e John Davis. Davis provavelmente apresentou Molyneux a seu próprio patrono, o comerciante de Londres William Sanderson, que financiou amplamente a construção dos globos. Quando concluídos, os globos foram apresentados a Elizabeth I. Os globos maiores foram adquiridos pela realeza, nobres e instituições acadêmicas, enquanto os menores foram adquiridos como auxílio prático à navegação para marinheiros e estudantes. Os globos foram os primeiros a serem produzidos de tal maneira que não foram afetados pela umidade no mar e passaram a ser utilizados nos navios em geral.

Molyneux emigrou para Amsterdã com sua esposa em 1596 ou 1597.

Yamaha SZ-X – The Mass Machine

The motorcycle market in India is growing in every sense of the term. This encompasses not just the increasing number of bikes that are being sold, but also the way the consumer is thinking about the product.
Earlier, the customer decided on his budget, the type of motorcycle and then went either to Hero Honda or Bajaj and booked one of the machines that these manufacturers had on offer. Today, however, that is not the case. The market is now driven by requirement. The consumer knows exactly what he expects of his bike and is willing to shell out the money to have those requirements fulfilled. For example, there are some who prefer outright performance. They go and buy bikes such as the R15 or the Pulsar 220. Then there are those who desire nothing but efficiency. They go and pick up the Discover 100 or Hero Honda Splendor. Then there is this new breed of buyers who want a bit of everything – style, efficiency, brand name, a higher cc than their neighbour's bike and so on.
Yamaha have decided to address the needs of this particular segment. The result is products like the SZ and SZ-X. These bikes also fall in line with the company's downward pyramid strategy in which they first took care of the niche market of performance and extremely focused motorcycles and are now moving towards utility-based bikes that will help the company achieve higher sales figures. Having launched the SZ and SZ-X last month, the company decided to give us a flavour of their latest offerings on a long tour from Jaipur to Udaipur and around Udaipur.
So what are these bikes exactly? The company claims that these machines are for the masses (unlike the R15 and FZ16, which were focused on the petrolheads). They carry the true genes of Yamaha and yet are affordable and easy on the pocket owing to their high fuel-efficiency. Talking of that, I wondered what the true genes of Yamaha are. When we utter the 'Y' name, it's synonymous with performance, aggression and attitude. We naturally think of the glorious RX100, RD350, R15 and R1. Does the SZ series have these genes? Not really. The motorcycle comes with the same 153-cc powerplant that does duty on the FZ family of bikes. However, this one has been detuned from 14 PS to 12.1 PS. The maximum torque has come down from 13.6 Nm to 12.8 Nm. The result is a much slower acceleration – 0-60 km/h in 6.5 seconds, to be precise – which was 5.5 seconds in the case of the FZ. Also, the top speed that you can achieve on this motorcycle is just over 105 km/h, a bit on the lower side for a 150-cc machine, isn't it? Well, considering that the bike is not meant for performance and is commute-based and efficiency-driven, we can ignore the fact that it is one whole second slower than its elder sibling and that it doesn't do impressive top speeds.
However, the problem does not end there. The throttle asks for a little extra effort to wring it, which makes us feel that acceleration is even slower. A true Yamaha fan wouldn't like that, will he?
Talking of the engine, there is one thing that needs special mention here and that is the smoothness of the motor. There are hardly any vibrations and even if we consider that I was astride a brand-new machine, I cannot ignore the fact that after riding 550 km with the throttle tweaked to the limit almost all the time, I didn't feel the vibes in the evening. Also, the engine was as smooth at the end of the exploit as it was before the ride. The engine scores some brownie points when it comes to the mid-range as well, making it one of the strengths as regards the motorcycle's commuter approach.
A true Yamaha carries with it an aggressive attitude and styling. On this count, the SZ-X has some positive points and some negative. Looking at the styling alone, I am convinced that this Yamaha retains its character. The tank looks like a shrunk version of the FZ's with aggressive graphics and extension scoops. Alloy wheels are standard. The headlamp looks a little small in proportion to the meaty front end created by the tank scoops. The split tail-lamp is simple yet effectively fresh in styling.
If you look at the attitude of the motorcycle, it's typically commuterish with the absence of features such as a tachometer, pass flash and engine kill switch. Then you get drum brakes, which are a complete disappointment. The company officials say that a disc brake option will be available and that it's a matter of a few months.
There was some regret initially looking at TVS tyres on the bike (especially considering that Yamaha provide the best rubber in the country on the R15 and FZ), but presumptions about the tyres dissipated after riding through the twisties. There is little to technically complain about the rubber when it comes to this commuter.
Another very good thing, and quite important, is riding comfort. Even after clocking 440 kilometres in a day, there was no sign of fatigue. The bike offers a relaxed posture for daily city commute as well as long rides. Good ergonomics complement the posture, making it an extremely comfortable ride for the ordinary man.
All in all, where does the SZ-X stand? For a commuter, it is perfect with a tag of Rs 52,000 (ex-showroom, Mumbai). You also get the SZ (which sheds tank scoops, an extra visor and electric starter) at Rs 49,000. It's got good looks and the tuning forks logo on its tank. But it has lost the character that Yamaha want to project with it. Low performance and high efficiency are not something that you expect from Yamaha, do you?

THE WINNER FILMS HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED!
"Confronting problems such as the extreme right, Neo-Nazis, hate crimes, structural racism, segregation, isolation, Roma emancipation and identity in Czech society this film succeeds in unfolding the reality that is there."
After every screening, the audience could evaluate the films. GYPSY SPIRIT by Klaus Hundsbichler got the best results from all the festival films! The jury member Jozef Banyák said about this film: "Harri Stojka, the popular Austrian jazz musician, went to India to "look for his roots". In fact, top on the list of his itinerary was to meet and play with Indian musicians. His intention was to find out how much of his inner musical world has in common with India's music culture. It's interesting to observe how quickly he was able to musically connect with bands foreign to him."
An international festival of Romani film on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the inauguration of the Memorial to the Sinti and Roma Victims of National Socialism in October 2017 in Berlin. It presents Berlin, Germany and Europe from the perspective of Romani people: Which topics are important, how do we see ourselves, how do we want to be seen?
GREETINGS: Artistic Director & Patron of AKE DIKHEA?
I am very pleased to present you the brochure of the very first edition of the Festival of Romani film AKE DIKHEA?As a member of the International Romani Film Commission and as someone who works in front of, as well as behind the camera, I know about the power of images. The name says it all: AKE DIKHEA? Which means: WELL, CAN YOU SEE? It's time to change perspectives and to call for equality. Our film festival is unique because Roma from all over Europe have submitted films for the festival program, and because the people to decide over the film selection are Roma filmmakers* in majority.
It may happen that you know less about Roma after the festival than before. And perhaps that's for the best: you will see filmsa bout individual people and about being human, not about an alleged group, not about Roma.
With that in mind, I would like to wish us all stimulating screenings and great entertainment!
Roma and Sinti have been part of European society for centuries and they, like everyone else, participate in shaping European culture. Yet, to date, literature, films, and other media portray Roma and Sinti insufficiently and in a stereotypical manner. Unfortunately, until this day, films are being shot that do not fulfill the right to prejudice-free and equal treatment.
The Festival of Romani Film AKE DIKHEA? shows that there is another way. The festival brings films to the foreground that critically reflect and deconstruct anti-Romani cliches and dedicate themselves to telling stories of individuals before telling stories of Roma. With this, AKE DIKHEA? is setting a standard. I wish all visitors a wonderful time with the very versatile film program and good luck to the festival's organizers!
Senator for Culture and Europe, Patron of AKE DIKHEA?

Q: Calling Drupal functions in external PHP file How can I call a Drupal function or get the global variable in a PHP file which is located under the drupal installation folder. I doing it for the first time. Are there any files I need to include in my code in order to access the Drupal function or variables?

A: Taken from the linked question in the comment above
You need to Bootstrap Drupal in the external PHP file:
/** bootstrap Drupal **/
chdir("/path/to/drupal/site/htdocs");
require_once './includes/bootstrap.inc';
drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);

Be sure to change the path to your Drupal installation, then add your code below the code posted above.

A: define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd());
require_once './includes/bootstrap.inc';
drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);

The above code works for me, when the script is in my Drupal root directory. This loads absolutely everything, not just Drupal core, including contributed module hooks.

A: If the above explained example doesn't work try this:
$path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
chdir($path."/drupal");
define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd()); //the most important line
require_once './includes/bootstrap.inc';
drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);

A: define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd());

require_once DRUPAL_ROOT . '/includes/bootstrap.inc';
drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);
global $user;
print_r($user);

Michel Faber: The 'Evil Is In The 'Etail
One of Scotland's most gifted and unpredictable writers, Michel Faber has always defied categorisation. His previous novels including Under the Skin, The Crimson Petal and the White and The Book of Strange New Things have been described as 'unbelievably clever,' 'wildly entertaining' and 'impossible to put down.'
Now he returns with D, his most shape-shifting book yet. Like The Wizard of Oz, Faber's novel is a political adventure that will be enjoyed by children and adults alike. Its heroine is brave, resourceful Dhikilo who lives in a faded English seaside town. When the letter 'd' suddenly disappears from the alphabet and only Dhikilo notices it's gone, she embarks on a journey to the land of Liminus to get the 'd' back.
Reminiscent of Charles Dickens and of Lewis Carroll, Michel Faber's fable is a delightful sideways look at the evils of our times. He joins us to discuss Dhikilo's wild odyssey with literary critic Stuart Kelly.

Average child spends less than an hour a day doing physical activities, parent survey shows
NEW YORK — Forget staying at home – nearly four in five parents would rather catch up with their family while doing a physical activity together (78%). It might be the best way to get kids to exercise more, according to a new poll, considering the average child isn't even spending an hour a day being active.
The survey of 2,000 parents with kids under 18 finds that parents really do have the most fun when they get to spend time with their kids (83%). Moreover, a whopping 89 percent like to be active with their kids by playing sports or spending time outside. According to the survey, parents' favorite physical activities to do with their kids are playing basketball (36%), dance (34%), and swim lessons (32%).
Let's get outside!
Conducted by OnePoll in partnership with Life Time, the survey shows that four in five parents want to inspire their kids to try more physical activities throughout their lives. While the average respondent thinks that it's best to introduce kids to more physical activities around the age of 7, a third of parents think it's important to do so even earlier.
Spending more time outside may also be the answer for the 76 percent of parents who are looking for new ways to connect with their kids. Half of parents think it's difficult for their kids to enjoy an activity without getting bored (51%), but 73 percent say their child is fearless when it comes to trying something new.
They won't have to do it alone, since 79 percent of parents are willing to try a new activity alongside their kids.
"Pickleball, swimming, group exercise classes – the list of healthy activities parents can enjoy with their children is virtually limitless," says Alicia Kockler, senior vice president of kids and aquatics for Life Time, in a statement. "Teaching our kids about the benefits of an active lifestyle is so important, and exploring new ways to play together creates memories that will last a lifetime."
1 in 5 children needs some more exercise
Most parents add that seeing their kids being active inspires them to get active as well (78%). A fifth of parents would rate the physical health of their kids as "average," "poor," or "very poor" (22%), which may be why nearly two-thirds of respondents wish their kids were more active than they already are (64%).
On average, parents estimate that their kids spend less than an hour a day being active, with nearly half sharing that their kids are less active than this. Thirty percent shared that their kids are more active during the summer than during the school year.
However, 38 percent think their kids are just as active when school starts up and seven in 10 say the beginning of the school year is a good time to make healthy lifestyle changes (71%).
"The start of a new school year is a great time to develop new family routines," Kockler says. "We suggest designating one or two nights a week when the whole family participates in a fun activity together – like basketball or a family swim at an indoor pool. Families that spend more active time together, and less time staring at screens, tend to be happier and much healthier."
