Speaking today in Lima, Peru at an economic forum, Facebook cofounder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg vowed that his company would do its part to help fight the growing tide of hate speech and fake news that has engulfed his and other social media companies in controversy.
In recent days, Facebook has been the center of a heated debate over its role in spreading misleading and false information during the U.S. election season. While Zuckerberg has insisted the amount of fake news on Facebook is small and had little impact, critics insist the company needs to take its role as a global media company more seriously.
At the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation CEO Summit today, making a rare appearance in a suit and tie, Zuckerberg said he believed Facebook could tackle these issues, but he stressed that he had no illusions about how difficult they would be.
"I'm optimistic about all this. But as an engineer, I realize how hard it's going to be," he said. "We can work to give people a voice. But we also need to do our part to stop the spread of hate and violence and misinformation."
Zuckerberg noted that the company has been building AI-driven tools to help spot violent content, whether it's from terrorists or more personal indications, such as suicidal intent. And he also pointed to the company's Safety Check tool that helps track people during disasters or violent events.
"We live in a relatively peaceful time," he said. "But there's still too much violence."
His remarks came as part of a broader speech in which he sought to encourage government and business leaders to set loftier and more ambitious goals to improve people's lives. He urged the APEC forum's 21 member nations to discuss ways to improve the socio-economic standing of people living around the Pacific Ocean.
Zuckerberg said that breakthroughs in science and technology should be harnessed to help do things like connect everyone to the internet and cure all diseases.
"It's a time for greatness," Zuckerberg said. "With accelerating progress in science and technology, our generation has the potential to do more great things than at any other time in history."
Here is his full speech:

Robinson: The tale of Taylor Swift and Kanye West is no 'Love Story'
When the big political news of the week involves Taylor Swift and Kanye West, we're in serious trouble. I'm trying to "Shake It Off," but I can't.
I don't mean to sound "Heartless," but we shouldn't have to pay the slightest attention to what those pop-music megastars think about the midterm election and President Trump. We do pay attention, though. The celebrification of our politics is complete, heaven help us, and we can only hope this doesn't mark the "End Game" of American society.
Swift, who is registered to vote in Tennessee, posted a lengthy caption on Instagram late Sunday in which she excoriated GOP Senate candidate Marsha Blackburn — "her voting record in Congress appalls and terrifies me" — and announced support for Democratic hopeful Phil Bredesen.
She clearly felt she had to "Speak Now" as she urged everyone to "please, please educate yourself on the candidates running in your state and vote."
Who cares? It's not yet clear. But if any substantial fraction of Swift's 112 million Instagram followers does care — yes, I said 112 million — and acts on her advice, we could see a real impact on Nov. 6.
Young people tend to support Democrats but tend not to vote much at all in non-presidential election years. If Swift's intervention moves the needle even slightly on young voter participation, that could make a big difference in tight races.
Many on the right apparently had believed, based on no evidence either way, that Swift was in their corner. Clearly, they were wrong.
Since Trump's ascension has made us all cast members in a tiresome reality-television show, it is inevitable that the yin to Swift's yang would come from West. The two were forever linked in a bizarre unscripted moment at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. Swift was accepting her prize for Best Female Video when West suddenly bounded onstage, grabbed the microphone and uttered the immortal line: "Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time."
"I'ma let you finish" became a meme, then a cliche. Thursday, before having lunch with Trump at the White House, West came up with a new one: "Trump is on his hero's journey right now."
West has always had an exalted view of his own "Power" to shape the culture, and perhaps he sees in Trump a fellow genius in the art of self-promotion. Last month, after appearing on "Saturday Night Live," West donned a "Make America Great Again" hat and regaled the studio audience with alt-right nonsense. He said he had been "bullied" by the show's cast and crew for his nonconformist views — a claim "SNL" adamantly denied the following week in a "Weekend Update" segment.
In the Oval Office, he once again wore the MAGA hat. He said it made him "feel like Superman."
Can West's support make Trump "Stronger" by convincing African-Americans to vote Republican, or at least dampen enthusiasm for voting Democratic? I seriously doubt it. But isn't it absurd that we even have to ask the question?

This privacy notice is intended to provide transparency regarding what personal data YHLA may hold about you, how it will be processed and stored, how long it will be retained and who may have access to your data.
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable living person (the data subject). An identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number or factors specific to the physical, genetic or mental identity of that person for example.
NHS Yorkshire and the Humber Leadership Academy aims to continuously develop leaders and managers to improve health services for patients and communities throughout the north east of England. We enable NHS leaders and managers to be more effective by supporting their leadership development and providing opportunities that are unavailable elsewhere in the NHS. YHLA aims to enable high quality, effective, compassionate care. All the information we collect is to support these objectives.
This privacy statement only covers the processing of personal data by YHLA that YHLA has obtained from data subjects accessing YHLA's website and from its provision of services and exercise of functions. It does not cover the processing of data by any sites that can be linked to or from YHLA's website, so you should always be aware when you are moving to another site and read the privacy statement on that website.
When providing YHLA with any of your personal data for the first time, for example, when you take up an appointment with YHLA or when you enroll in any YHLA training, you will be asked to confirm that you have read and accepted the terms of this privacy statement.

Google Analytics for example stores information about what pages you visit, how long you are on the site, how you got here and what you click on. Personal information (e.g. your name or address) is not however collected or stored so this information cannot be used to identify who you are.

On a number of pages we use 'plug ins' or embedded media. For example, we might embed YouTube videos in pages. The suppliers of these services may also set cookies on your device when you visit the pages where we have used this type of content. These are known as 'third-party' cookies. To opt-out of third-parties collecting any data regarding your interaction on our website, please refer to their websites for further information.
YHLA is the data controller in respect of any personal data it holds concerning YHLA alumni and participants, individuals employed by YHLA and individuals accessing YHLA's website.
The GDPR requires that data controllers and organisations that process personal data demonstrate compliance with its provisions. This involves publishing our basis for lawful processing.
Special categories of personal data include data relating to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, sexual orientation and data concerning health.
Please note that not all of the above legal bases will apply for each type of processing activity that YHLA may undertake. However, when processing any personal data for any particular purpose, one or more of the above legal bases will apply.
We may seek your consent for some processing activities, for example for sending out invitations to you to training events and sending out material from other government agencies. If you do not give consent for us to use your data for these purposes, we will not use your data for these purposes, but your data may still be retained by us and used by us for other processing activities based on the above lawful conditions for processing.
We may occasionally have to send you information from YHLA, NHS Improvement, other public authorities and government agencies about matters of policy where those policy issues impact on leadership training and development or other matters related to YHLA. If you prefer, you can opt out of receiving information about general matters of leadership training and development by contacting us We will provide you with further advice and guidance regarding any consequences of your request.
YHLA will not send you generic information from other public authorities and government agencies on issues of government policy.
Your data may only be transferred abroad where YHLA is assured that a third country, a territory or one or more specific sectors in the third country, or an international organisation ensures an adequate level of protection.
Our processing of all personal data complies with the General Data Protection Regulation principles.
The personal data we hold may be held as an electronic record on data systems managed by YHLA or as a paper record. These records are only accessed, seen and used as required and/or permitted by law by staff who need access to personal data so they can do their jobs and other partner organisations under data sharing agreements.
The security of the data is assured through the implementation of our host organisation, NHS Improvement's policies on information governance management.
We make every effort to keep your personal information accurate and up to date, but in some cases we are reliant on you as the data subject to notify us of any necessary changes to your personal data. If you tell us of any changes in your circumstances, we can update the records with personal data you choose to share with us.
We will keep personal data for no longer than necessary, in line with our records management policy, and the NHS records retention schedule within the NHS records management code of practice.
So we can provide the right services at the right level, we may share your personal data within services across YHLA and with other third party organisations such as NHS England and other Arm's Lengths Bodies, Higher Education Institutions, NHS Trusts, Clinical Commissioning Groups, colleges, faculties, other Local Leadership Academies, approved academic researchers and other NHS and government agencies where necessary, to provide the best possible training and education and to ensure that we discharge YHLA's responsibilities for employment and workforce planning for the NHS. This will be on a legitimate need to know basis only.
We may also share information, where necessary, to prevent, detect or assist in the investigation of fraud or criminal activity, to assist in the administration of justice, for the purposes of seeking legal advice or exercising or defending legal rights or as otherwise required by the law.
Where the data is used for analysis and publication by a recipient or third party, any publication will be on an anonymous basis, and will not make it possible to identify any individual. This will mean that the data ceases to become personal data.
The GDPR extends and strengthens your rights as a data subject. Under the GDPR you have the right to rectification of inaccurate personal data and the right to request the erasure of your personal data. However, the right to erasure is not an absolute right and it may be that it is necessary for YHLA to continue to process your personal data for a number of lawful and legitimate reasons.
You have the right in certain circumstances to ask YHLA to stop processing your personal data in relation to any NELA service.
If you object to the way in which YHLA is processing your personal information or if you wish to ask YHLA to stop processing your personal data, please contact us. However, if we do stop processing personal data about you, this may prevent YHLA from providing the best possible service to you.
You can access a copy of the information YHLA holds about you by writing to us. This information is generally available to you free of charge subject to the receipt of appropriate identification.
The GDPR sets out the right for a data subject to have their personal data ported from one controller to another on request in certain circumstances. You should discuss any request for this with us.
If you want to complain about how we have used your personal data or to know more about how your information will be used, please contact us.
It is important that you work with us to ensure that the information we hold about you is accurate and up to date so please inform YHLA if any of your personal data needs to be updated or corrected.
All communications from YHLA will normally be by email. It is therefore essential for you to maintain an effective and secure email address or you may not receive information or other important news and information about your employment or training.


This is a texture atlas tool we created during the development of Prisoner 84. It allowed us to quickly and efficiently produce texture atlases for the 40+ levels that appeared in the game. We have decided to release it to the public for anybody out there who might be looking for a texture atlas solution for their project. It is on the fussy side, however, so we have also made the source code available in the hope that, if you find it useful, you might also wish to contribute by helping to improve it.
Please note this plug-in is currently built ONLY for the 64-bit Windows version of Maya 2012. Hopefully in the future – or through community help – we can get this cross-platform, the way it should be!
1. Copy "hg_TextureAtlas2012x64.mll" into your Maya "plug-ins" folder. This can be in either your "C:\Users\*YOURUSERNAME*\Documents\Maya\plug-ins" folder, or in "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2012\bin\plug-ins" (or wherever your copy of Maya 2012 is installed).
2. Copy "nvatlas.exe" into your Maya "bin" folder. This is usually in "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2012\bin" (or wherever your copy of Maya 2012 is installed).
plug-ins. Tick the box next to "Loaded" to enable it (and optionally tick the "Auto load" box so that the plug-in is automatically loaded each time you open Maya).
Our TextureAtlas tool has two methods of atlasing: "Standard Atlas" and "Prebake Atlas".
The standard method atlases by texture; so if your scene contains 10 separate textures then those 10 textures will be added to your atlas regardless of how many times they are used in the scene, and regardless of how many meshes there are in the scene (meshes that share textures are each allocated the same UV offsets within the atlas). This method is perfect when your artwork is going to be lit in real-time and doesn't require pre-baked lighting of any kind.
The prebake method atlases by mesh rather than by texture. For example, if you have a single texture applied to 10 separate meshes in your scene, 10 instances of that texture (along with the corresponding UV offsets of each of those meshes) will be created inside the atlas. This means all 10 textures can be pre-lit (or altered in some other way) within the texture atlas itself.
I've run it, but what now?
This is a list of all textures that have been added to your atlas (together with their absolute paths).
This is the Texture Atlas Index file; it lists all textures together with their new UV offsets within the atlas itself.
These are your new texture atlas files. They are automatically assigned to your existing materials in Maya. It is recommended, however, that you move these to a different folder and create a new material in your scene to assign them to. This will avoid overwriting existing texture atlas data if you run the TextureAtlas tool again in the same Maya project.
This tool is still very much a work in progress, so there are a few issues. However, most of these issues are avoidable if you follow the steps outlined in this section.
Sometimes multiple texture UVs are allocated coordinates which cause them to overlap with one another inside the texture atlas.
This issue is usually caused by one of two things: 1) when rectangular textures–particularly those with a significant difference between width and height (i.e. 16×256)–are allocated atlas space near to a square texture, or 2) when the atlas tool is attempting to use up "odd space" caused by inconsistent texture sizes, non-power of two textures, or poorly grouped texture UVs.
Use rectangular textures sparingly, and avoid using elongated rectangular textures (i.e. textures that are 16×256).
To avoid "odd space" try to be consistent with texture sizes. This is the case regardless of whether or not you are using power of two textures (i.e. 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, etc.).
For best results use square power of two textures as much as possible (the texture atlas is a power of two texture, so it makes sense that power of two textures will fit the best inside it).
Another trick to avoid "odd space" is to manually control where a mesh's texture will appear inside the atlas.
The order in which a mesh is atlased is determined by its position in the scene hierarchy–a mesh that comes first in the scene will be dealt with first by the atlasing tool and will be placed in the top left corner of the file. To edit the scene hierarchy, open Maya's outliner ("Window > Outliner") and make sure "Display > Sort Order" is set to "Scene Hierarchy". Now re-order your meshes in the outliner so that they are grouped by their texture sizes: meshes which have larger textures should appear first in the scene (when the texture atlas has more space to work with) and meshes which have smaller textures should appear last (when the texture atlas has less space available).
When more than one texture atlas is created, Maya will automatically assign the last atlas file created to all of your existing materials. To avoid this we recommend limiting atlas usage to one per scene/level. It is, however, possible to manually re-assign separate texture atlas materials to the relevant meshes.
When using the prebake method, make sure multiple textures aren't assigned to a single mesh, otherwise the atlas will get stuck in a loop. Individual meshes can only have one texture assigned to them.
If you want to save space in your texture atlas, you can combine meshes that share a single texture and only one texture will be added to the atlas.
This is useful if you know two meshes that share the same texture are going to be lit in the same way (e.g. a symmetrical corridor), or if an object or tile appears in a level multiple times but doesn't require a unique instance of its assigned texture (e.g. a door sign used throughout the level that doesn't require lighting to ensure it is always legible).
To compile the code you will need a version of Visual Studio 2010 with 64 bit compilation tools and the 64 bit versions of the Maya libraries. It is possible to build the 32 bit versions of everything if you wanted to, you just need to add the new target and make sure to link against the Maya 32 bit libraries.
You will have to set up the header and library paths for your Maya install into the project settings (you can just replace the defaults I've left in the project).
That's pretty much all there is to change to get it compiling so long as the folder structure stays as it was in the zip file. The final mll files go into the 'mll' folder and should be copied to your document Maya path as you do each build, or you can tell visual studio to just place it there by default (be aware you can't have the plug-in running in Maya when you compile this way as the file will be locked).
To compile the version supplied in the zip, you just need the latest DirectX SDK (I used the June 2010 as of writing). Again you need to make sure the headers and libraries are set up for the project to see them.
I changed some of the code to force certain options that were very iPhone build specific. For example, the output atlas will always be a TGA regardless of the source textures, and it will create square 1024×1024 files without mipmaps.
The options in the nvatlas tool should really go into some sort of dialogue in Maya so you can pick and choose what you want. There are some parts of the code that are slightly broken by my changes. For example the important part of placing the textures into an atlas is not quite as precise as it used to be because I stopped it ordering textures by size.
The codebase could do with a thorough clean-up; as is always the case it was created quickly for a specific purpose, and it never really went through a proper design phase, nor was it tested properly.
The plug-in should not be reliant on the nVidia tool as this is preventing the tool from being cross-platform. It is also an inefficient way to implement such a tool. Using the rectangle bin packing code here http://clb.demon.fi/projects/rectangle-bin-packing is a very viable alternate which we are considering.
An "Undo" feature that fully supports Maya's command history, so that an atlas can be generated at any time to check progress.
Add a dialogue-based interface that can be used to customise atlas output as well as provide a convenient place to implement future additions to the available options.
This tool is released as is. Please use at your own risk!

Recently re-opened after an extensive refurbishment, this is a Greene King house in a prominent position on the city centre, and should be buzzing with a good trade, not least from the adjacent theatre. That rarely seems to be the case though, and from experience it is often practically deserted. Hopefully that will change now, although the refurbishment is rather generic in character and no doubt much the same as many other GK pubs up and down the country.
Whilst the layout is pretty much unchanged, it is of course now tidy and up together whilst it was looking slightly down at heel previously. It's a good size internally and divided in to a number of separate areas. The flooring is predominantly wood strip, with some chequered tiling around the bar counter, whilst the walls are a mixture of mostly dark green paintwork and wood panelling. Some of this is quite extensive in places, and with the addition of old black and white photographs on the walls gives it an almost elegant feel, although the presence of a pool table rather negated this. A large mural of Brunel's Suspension Bridge was on one wall, and elsewhere were old photographs of Bristol, many featuring hot air balloons for which the city is famed. There were also a number of film star pictures, including local lad Cary Grant. Some large Greene King etched mirrors completed the interior décor, although there was also a glass display cabinet with books about Bristol and a model of the Bristol bus. A TV screen was showing the darts match, but the volume was off so this was not too intrusive.
Beers on tap were Greene King IPA, Abbott Ale, Timothy Taylor Landlord and Butcombe, whilst a fifth pump appeared unused. Ciders meanwhile were a trio from Thatcher's with Dry, Gold and Haze, along with Strongbow Dark Fruit. What had started out as a fairly relaxed pint whilst we waited for our bus soon changed at 11:00pm when there was some rather aggressive bell ringing and the background music was promptly turned off. By 11:02 the lights had been turned up, the TV and fruit machines turned off and we were told that they'd "be kicking out in five or ten minutes". Not one I'll be rushing back to, but I may pop in again purely because of it's location if I find myself with time to kill before the bus.
Dull John Barras pub on that part of the former quayside which is now filled in. Split-level interior with a little further seating upstairs, all with the expected corporate furniture and decor. Further annoyance is that just two of the six handpumps were in use, dispensing Courage Directors and Greene King IPA Reserve.
Drawn in by the lure of a CAMRA discount (I'm cheap and I admit it!) I was stuck by how similar the place was all these years later from its Horn & Trumpet days - I was sure that its location and proximity to the Hippodrome would have seen a major internal gutting and modern refit but no, it still seems aimed at the students and weekend binge drinkers. The U-shaped interior is quite gloomy and painted in vomit yellow. There's a raised section to the rear that looks a little classier and there are a number of tight semi-circular booths on a spur off the right-hand side of the main bar. Two pool tables out the back by the toilets(!). Perhaps the only real selling point is the exterior seating overlooking the square. Parts of the interior need maintenance, which given its location next to a theatre smacks of laziness. At the bar there were a surprising number of ales (Butcombe Bitter, Prescott and Doom Bar with Tribute 'back soon'). It was 10% off for CAMRA cards as advertised and my half of Prescott clocked in at a very reasonable £1.32 which helped offset its middling condition (a bright start that faded very rapidly). This is a place that really should be aiming for the stars given its enviable location next to the Hippodrome and redeveloped dockside area - but instead seems content to work on the maxim that even a stopped clock still tells the right time twice a day.
Now called the Drawbridge. The Horn and Trumpet was a dark and fairly rancid place in its latter years, an example of another Bristol town centre pub that went downhill in the late 90's. I doubt many people mourn its passing. I don't.

The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust became a smoke free organisation in July 2005 after a consultation showed that the majority of staff, public, patients and other users of the two hospital sites said they believed smoking should be banned. This includes smoking in the entire grounds or in vehicles on the site. It is part of a national policy of no smoking in and around any NHS buildings. See our Smoke Free policy.
E-cigarettes or ENDS
The Trust's smoke free policy prohibits the use of E-cigarettes or electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) whilst on Trust premises due to the realistic nature of these devices and the negative impression given if being used.
Tobacco smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals in the form of particles and gases, over 50 of which are known to be cancer-causing
Smoking is the single greatest cause of preventable illness and early death in the UK, and leads to heart disease, stroke and cancer
More than 120,000 people in the UK die from smoking-related illnesses each year.
Many people are concerned about the effects of second-hand smoke
Non-smokers breathe in side stream smoke from the burning tip of a cigarette and mainstream smoke that has been inhaled and exhaled by the smoker.
70% of smokers say that they want to give up (Office of National Statistics).
The Norfolk Stop Smoking Service can support smokers who want to quit. Its advisers can provide support, advice and access to nicotine replacement therapy or other products to help smokers to quit.
Tel 0800 0854 113 or visit Smoke Free Norfolk. GPs will also give help and advice.


My name is Chelsea Koglmeier and I'm the founder of a socially conscious bicycle company called Bikes Of Reckless Optimism (ORO for short,www.bikesoro.com). I've spent the last year prototyping and designing simple & clean commuter bikes. With each purchase, we support the donation of a bike to someone in need around the world.
As background, I'm a 26-year-old, Duke graduate. Motivated by the sun and by getting people access to opportunity all over the world.
This company is a dream that began with a few months, 8 years ago, working in a refugee community in Kampala, Uganda.
Check out the Indigogo Campaign here!
When I was really young -- although I couldn't tell you an exact age. I lived in a great town for riding, so was always on my bike. Best memory was riding no handed all the way to swim practice, including down the last hill (it was BIG), over the grass, and into the bike rack. I practiced everyday, but that was serious success.
When I was a kid, riding was pure fun. When I got older, I would ride out of necessity. I didn't get a car until after college, so I rode everywhere around campus. I also race triathlon, so I ride my road bike multiple times every week and I've been doing that for years now. Now, I ride because I work inside and it's a good way to get some outdoor time.
You created Bikes of Reckless Optimism- what was your inspiration for a bicycle based business?
The inspiration actually came from living in a refugee community in Kampala Uganda and seeing how powerful a bike could be to change someone's life. It also cam from a general interest in supporting the movement for businesses with double bottom lines -- for profit and a social mission.
In your words, why is it important for those in need to have a bicycle?
Access to opportunity. In a lot of countries, there's bad infrastructure and schools aren't close to where kids live, things like that. Bikes help get people to opportunity— like school and work— by simply giving them a vehicle. They can travel 4x farther than on foot, so options really increase.
You work in partnership with World Bicycle Relief- why are they an organization that deserves support from those who love riding bicycles?
I think the majority of bike donation nonprofits deserve people's support! They're doing important, empowering work. It's always important to look into the details of how nonprofits function though. You want to make sure you know where your money is going. For ORO, that's incredibly important. I wanted a clear picture of how our contributions were able to impact peoples access to bikes. WBR is an incredibly well-run, transparent, and iterative nonprofit. They track their effectiveness and change things to make their organization and their distribution run smoothly. I've been very impressed!
The process: someone purchases a bike from O.R.O. ...quarterly you look at numbers and write a donation to WBR that goes towards wheels for a Buffalo bike. Is there anything else we should know about the process?
That's what it looks like for now. We're teaming up with WBR for that "everyday" style ride. We may bring in some other "mobility" related nonprofits for other product lines. For example, we're launching a handmade tricycle (built in New Jersey by an amazing woodworker) that has "you can change the world" inscribed on the foot platform. I'm really excited about it because it's such a great way to open a conversation about social impact and conscious consumerism with kids. We're probably going to be working with a US based nonprofit that refurbishes and distributes kids bikes for that product.
I think it will be a constantly changing landscape, but the theme will always be getting people access to mobility.
So cheesy, but it makes me smile for no reason except the feeling of riding. It also connects me to people around me. When I ride around, I engage the people I pass and see things I wouldn't otherwise.
Why should people look at a bicycle as a viable form of transportation (vs. a "toy")?
This is a great question! I'm so happy it came up because I think it's something that we're working to change around the US. Other countries absolutely see bikes as viable forms of transportation — think of the Netherlands or think of Rwanda. In the US, we've seen bikes as kids toys or competitive toys for a long time and they've got a bit of that stigma attached to them. With the emergence of more bike lanes in cities, and bike share programs, I think we're just on the brink of a whole new bicycle world in America, where people really start to view bikes differently.
It's a bit of a paradigm shift, but it's happening. Slowly but surely.
Right now, we're launching just a single bike in 3 sizes. It's a porter style — which means it's a casual bike, somewhat upright, front basket, nice curved top tube. It's equipped with 3 speeds, an internally geared rear hub (which means the gears are inside the back wheel and less likely to break), and a Gates Belt Drive. For people who don't know about belt drives, it's a drivetrain that replaces the traditional chain links with carbon fibers. It's an amazing product that lasts 7x longer, doesn't use grease, and is incredibly low maintenance. No reason not to have it!
If someone isn't in the market for a bicycle, but wants to help out O.R.O. what would you suggest?
Well, for our Indiegogo campaign, there are a lot of different/fun perks. Anything they can contribute is welcome! For someone who is interested in helping, but the crowdfunding campaign is over, they could apply to join our Ambassador team (www.bikesoro.com/ambassadors) or just email me directly if they have another idea.
I believe in partnership and working with people to make things happen, so am always open to a conversation.
What has been one of the biggest challenges for O.R.O?
Working alone for a year has been tough.
What has been one of the largest successes for O.R.O.?
There's 2 really: 1) building a great bike product that should exist, but doesn't; 2) building our Ambassador team full of inspiring people.
What do you hope for O.R.O. in the next several years?
I hope we turn into a linearly scaling small business. Every year growing a small amount, becoming a little more sustainable, and eventually being able to sustain ourselves without outside capital. I'd like us to link our team to the work of the nonprofits and get people out on adventures and create a branded line of products around our tagline "built with reckless optimism".
Are there any ways that individuals can become involved with O.R.O. to help spread the mission? How can they do so?
As I mentioned above, joining the Ambassador team is a great way to help spread the word. We love chatting with the press and joining in on big bike rides. The fun thing is that it's still new, so the options are endless and we love go-getters.
Do you have any suggestions for women who are looking to be involved in the cycling industry based on your experiences?
It's such a unique industry and at a serious inflection point right now. It will be very interesting to see what happens in the next year and in the next 5 years. If you like being in a space with unpredictable outcomes that you may be able to help define, it's a good space for you at this moment. And, it is the truth, there are a lot of guys, so we could absolutely use more more lady presence in the bike ranks.
What do you feel could happen industry-wide and locally to encourage more women to be involved with cycling and the industry?
I think the bike lanes are big. It is proven that ladies feel like riding on the roads is more risky, so the more public funds are put towards developing that infrastructure, the more ladies we will see riding. Also, ladies need to be spoken to in a different way then men. Every other industry seems to target messing differently based on gender, but it is not really happening with bikes. I think speaking in a more accessible (less tech-y) and warmer (optimistic) way, is a great way to connect.
What inspires you to encourage others, especially more women, to ride?
Bikes are a great tool for taking care of ourselves and taking care of the world. If it's been so good to me, I hope it can do the same thing for other people. Specifically on the women note, I guess I've seen the stats and women are lagging significantly behind men in ridership in the states. I don't understand why!
I'm into farming. I live on a great plot with goats and chickens. Every year we raise fruit trees, bushes, all the vegetables. The more I do it, the more into it I get.
It's all kind of linked to the general wellness concepts, but maybe farming will be the next business :).

Aged Black Garlic Extract May Help Reduce Diastolic Blood Pressure
In 67 volunteers with high cholesterol, the supplement reduced diastolic BP by an average of 5.85 mmg/Hg compared to placebo.
An aged black garlic extract was linked to significant and favorable reductions in diastolic blood pressure in a group of individuals with moderately elevated cholesterol levels compared to placebo in a preliminary clinical trial appearing in Nutrients.
Hypertension effects nearly a third of adults worldwide, and is a leading preventable risk factor for cardiovascular problems and all-cause mortality. Pharmactive the supplier of ABG+, the garlic extract used in the study, reports that with every 10 mm/Hg increase in blood pressure, the risks associated with cardiovascular disease and other heart conditions doubles among people between the ages of 40 and 89.
The randomized, double-blind, crossover-controlled study was conducted at the Saint Roan de Reus University Hospital in Barcelona, and recruited 67 adult hypercholesterolemic volunteers who had relatively high blood LDL levels. Health outcomes were measured as each participant took 250 mg of ABG+ or a placebo over the course of six weeks, with a three-week washout period before group crossover.
Subjects in both groups were also assigned a set diet that excluded foods known for anti-hypertensive and blood lipid-lowering benefits. At the end of each six-week interval, the participants who were taking the aged black garlic extract saw a reduced diastolic pressure by 5.85 mm/Hg on average compared to the placebo. The results were more significant in men than in women.
This is the first human clinical study conducted on ABG+, spurred by positive outcomes seen in previous animal studies suggesting that the ingredient has a potential cardioprotective role, with signs that it may help to balance blood lipids and enhance vascular function.
"A reduction of just 5 mm/Hg of diastolic blood pressure lowers substantially the risk of stroke and other vascular events," Alberto Espinel, head of R&D for Pharmactive. "Aged black garlic has long been regarded as a culinary delicacy and integral component of the Asian diet, as well as a tool to maintain health. Empirical evidence is unfolding on the beneficial effects of black garlic on cardiovascular health. However, the magnitude of its effect depends on the amount and type of chemical compounds accumulated during the aging process and the ability to extract and preserve those compounds during processing."
Standardization is Key
Pharmactive reports that aged black garlic's bioactivity relies upon biochemical changes in which standardization is key. The savory ingredient is produced through an aging process which turns the garlic cloves dark and jellylike, which causes organosulfur compounds to diminish and significantly increases soluble polyphenols (predominantly S-allyl-L-cysteine (SAC)), flavonoids, and melanoidins. Researchers attribute the combined action of these antioxidants to the potential cardioprotective properties of the ingredient.
ABG+ is standardized to 1.25mg SAC per dose, and is produced through the company's ABG Cool-Tech aging technique. The ingredient is then tested via high-performance liquid chromatography.
"SAC is virtually absent in fresh garlic, yet is synthesized and accumulated during aging under specific ambient conditions," Espinel said. "The presence and concentration of active substances critically depend on the production process. Most commercial black garlic products on the market are intended just for their culinary properties and barely contain SAC. In other cases, SAC is produced in garlic by long industrial processes which included soaking the bulbs in organic solvents and the results are simply labeled as 'aged garlic'.
"This compromises the content of bioactives and is the reason the available studies of black garlic extracts show contradictory results and health capabilities. This is some of the first evidence emerging on the blood pressure-balancing effect of an ABG+ extract, as a natural alternative, in a population where the strategies of intervention are based on diet and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Importantly, its positive effects were achieved following a simple protocol of consuming one ABG+ extract tablet daily."
Julia Diaz, head of marketing for Pharmactive, said that future investigations into the potential role that this ingredient has in blood pressure management are being planned, and research suggests that ABG+ could be a complementary tool to use alongside first lines of treatment, such as the extensively-studied DASH or Mediterranean diets.

The second daily operation, from the beginning of the Summer 2017 season, reflects Etihad Airways' long-term commitment to the route, and coincides with the Abu Dhabi-based carrier's 10th anniversary of flying to the Irish capital.
Operating with a two-class Airbus A330-200 offering 22 Business and 240 Economy Class seats, the extra daily service will give guests more travel options at convenient timings, and greater connectivity to key markets across the Middle East, Africa, Indian subcontinent, Asia and Australia.
Business and leisure travellers will be able to enjoy double daily connections via Abu Dhabi to several key destinations, including Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Mumbai, Delhi, Cochin, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Manila, and daily connections to markets such as Brisbane, Perth, Beijing, Tokyo and Phuket.
The extra capacity will provide a boost to tourism in Ireland, with visitors from around the world benefitting from a greater choice of flights for a short or long break in a country known for its warmth and hospitality. More frequencies will also double cargo capacity each week to facilitate greater movement of international freight to and from Dublin.
As a result of improved infrastructure at Dublin Airport, Etihad Airways will switch its existing Dublin flights from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1, starting 24 January 2017. The move follows extensive investment in passenger and retail facilities in the terminal by airport operator DAA.
Vincent Harrison, Dublin Airport Managing Director, said: "Since Etihad Airways launched the route in 2007, Dublin has been a hugely popular destination in its network, and the return to a double daily service will be welcomed by both business and leisure travellers. It is good news for Irish tourism and also for those travelling to Abu Dhabi and beyond with Etihad's excellent connectivity to the Middle East, Africa and Asia.
Etihad Airways recently hosted a delegation of officials from Tourism Ireland led by CEO Niall Gibbons as part of a travel trade incentive roadshow for UAE agents to promote holidays to Ireland. Tourism Ireland estimates 65,000 visitors travelled from the UAE to Ireland in 2015, representing an 18 per cent growth over the previous year.


A unique fishing contest began in spring 2014 – the Nissan Live Release contest. Anglers had a chance to win great prizes while they took responsibility and contributed to the conservation of Atlantic salmon and sea trout. Mattias Höjman won both first and second prize and will be going to the River Dee in week 13 of 2015 with his new fishing rod. Andreas Mattsson won third prize, waders and boots.
Congratulations and well done lads!
is an important measure to maintain and ultimately increase fish stocks, for example of Atlantic salmon, and is being used in many other countries with good results. Every registered and released salmon or trout caught according to the Live Release method gave a ticket for the prize draw in the autumn, after the end of the season. The contest in the Nissan's lower fish conservation area began on 1 May and ended on 30 September 2014. The competition is just one of a number of measures being undertaken to improve the fish populations of the different species that live in the Nissan.
1st Prize: A sport fishing trip for one person to Scotland, River Dee value of SEK 15 000.
For more information about the trip are available on www.fiskeresor.nu/river_dee.html thence also the following pictures are taken.

You've transformed your body . . . but have you transformed your posing?
In the bodybuilding and fitness competition world, we focus on the details for sculpting our muscles, choosing the correct macronutrients, weighing ourselves and our food, even watching the minutes of our cardio. But many competitors neglect to put that same drive and attention for detail into their posing work. Posing is a technical process that is often tougher than a workout. It requires time and patience and cannot be crammed, so don't wait until the last minute. Long-term practice allows your posing to progress properly, and as they say, the devil's in the details. Train with me, the Posing Professor, to feel comfortable and confident on stage and to ensure you display your best physique in the best way to the judges.
Learn to properly execute your division's poses with precision and control and determine how to accentuate your strengths to the judges while minimizing your weaknesses.
Develop fluidity in your stage walk, quarter turns, individual posing routine, and overall presentation.
Learn to bring your own energy and personality to your poses, so you stand out to judges and photographers.
Learn the secrets to properly controlling your core, including your diaphragm, abdomen, lower back, and overall breathing, and learn single-leg stabilization, muscle execution and activation, foot placement, weight distribution, smiling, and so much more.
Get tips on skincare, make up, hair, tanning, shoes, jewelry, and all other detail required for creating a complete and professional stage package.
Being successful on a stage involves much more than just striking a pose. It requires confidence, personality, passion, and performance. I work hard with my posing clients to help them embody all of these attributes as well as learn the technical pieces to every single pose required on the stage while still maintaining their own sense of style, personality, and movement. I want my clients to pose like themselves, not just copy me.
Now, am I qualified to teach you how to pose, no matter what division you are in? Yes. Yes, I am. I have 20 years of experience across 4 different divisions at all different levels: local, regional, national, professional. I have competed in Texas as well as in 10 other states and even internationally twice! This means that I have stood in front of numerous sets of judges. So, after competing in over 45 shows, it is safe to say I know a little something about posing. The fact that I still compete means that I currently experience what you experience in the modern-era of bodybuilding. I am judged, critiqued, corrected, and awarded just like you are. I understand what you are going through.
On top of that, I was a high school English teacher and also worked in nonprofit education reform, teaching teachers how to teach. Teaching is my thing. I have a lifetime certification in the state of Texas for teaching secondary English. I. Can. Teach.
My promise to you: I will get you ready for the stage by utilizing meticulous, hands-on, and honest feedback with a direct approach as well as wit and humor. My beginners do not look like beginners. And my veterans shine even brighter.
