The Return of the Administration of Kindly Old Moderate George Bush
The party of George Bush became the party of Donald Trump without any real resistance because the party of George Bush is basically the party of Donald Trump. Now that Trump has nominated Bill Barr, Bush's Attorney General from 1991-93, to be his own Attorney General, with the clear and obvious consideration that Barr will […]

Molecular printing has developed tremendously in the past few years. Established protein patterning methods either rely on a slow serial writing process or are based on parallelized photolithographic techniques where cumbersome mask alignment procedures usually impair the ability to generate multi-protein patterns. Here we describe how to perform high resolution multi protein micro-patterning using Light Induced Molecular Adsorption of Proteins (LIMAP). LIMAP is based on a water-soluble photo-initiator which is able to reverse the antifouling property of polymer brushes when exposed to UV light. We show that the density of adsorbed molecules scales almost linearly with the dose of UV light. Moreover LIMAP is well adapted to wide field illumination schemes. Consequently, micron-scale adhesive patterns where proteins can adsorb, are printed within seconds. The very low background of these patterns allows for the sequential printing of multiple proteins. Our optical set-up (widefield DMD based projection system coupled to a conventional epifluorescence microscope) allows us to generate arbitrary grayscale patterns of UV light. Patterns ranging from 500nm to 1 mm can be printed in one step and for a given fluorescent protein controlled gradients of arbitrary shape can be patterned. We show that the range of application extends from the single molecule up to the multicellular scale with an exquisite control over local protein density: micropatterns of individual fluorescent molecule provide a tool for the quantitative study of biomolecular interactions. At larger scale, the ability to rapidly generate complex and dynamic protein landscapes enable studies of the cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Altogether, LIMAP provides a generic method for fast high resolution patterning of multiple protein with applications to biomedical research and tissue engineering.

Home Ethiopia Fighting resumes in Ethiopia along Tigray border
Fighting resumes in Ethiopia along Tigray border
Less than a week after Ethiopia's prime minister announced a peace plan, the conflict re-exploded along Tigray's southern borders.
Less than a week after Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed announced a proposal to formalize a ceasefire with the TPLF, and to initiate a national reconciliation dialogue, new armed clashes have occurred in the south of Tigray regional state, along the borders with the adjacent Amhara and Afar regional states (https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/fighting-resumes-along-border-ethiopias-northern-tigray-region-resident-tigray-2022-08-24/).
Troop movements and sporadic exchanges of gunfire had actually been reported by the TPLF even in the days prior to the announcement of the negotiation plan by the Ethiopian prime minister, although firmly denied by the federal government in Addis Ababa, which had indeed insisted on the need to initiate political dialogue to facilitate a solution to the crisis.
The prime minister's proposals had been responded to on August 23 by the president of the regional state of Tigray, Debretsion Gebremichael, arguing how the peace plan was designed to fail, and calling on the federal government to restore essential services, ensure humanitarian aid access, order the withdrawal of Eritrean troops still on its territory, as well as the liberation of western Tigray still under Amhara occupation, and promote the action of investigators on war crimes. An outright rejection of the negotiating proposal, in fact, deemed by the TPLF as instrumental in the pursuit of its goals of economic and humanitarian strangulation of the region.
On the same August 23, the Chief of Staff of the Ethiopian Federal Forces, Maj. Gen. Tesfaye Ayalew, reported the downing of a plane from Sudan with a cargo of weapons destined for the TPLF militias. The plane, an Antonov 26, reportedly violated Ethiopian airspace near the town of Humera, being shot down by a federal Sukhoi Su-27, and was described as "the property of a historical enemy of Ethiopia," although without any specific indication of nationality (https://sudantribune.com/article263195/).
TPLF spokesman Gatachew Reda responded the next day to the news of the plane's downing, calling it a deliberate lie and a pretext for launching the military attack in southern Tigray (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-08-24/ethiopia-says-arms-laden-plane-from-sudan-shot-down-ebc-reports).
Violent fighting has been reported since August 24, with a mutual exchange of accusations between the federal government and the regional government in Mekelle regarding responsibility for the attacks. According to authorities in Addis Ababa, the TPLF allegedly violated the cease-fire by categorically rejecting any negotiating proposal from the federal government, while the regional political leadership in Mekelle charges the federal army and Amhara militias with attacking deep along the border line, carrying out numerous air sorties including against the Tigray capital (https://www.ft.com/content/b0c6d5f7-b3f3-43ec-bcd0-a10d2780a26f).
The first fighting between federal ENDF forces and Tigrayan TDF forces reportedly occurred on August 24 near the village of Kobo, near the A2 highway, and further east in the locality of Zobel, along the border with the Amhara regional state. A further firefight was reportedly reported further east along the border with Afar regional state near the locality of Bisober and Tekulesh. Tigrinya forces reportedly managed to repel the attacks and advance in the following days in a southerly direction, capturing the villages of Mendefera and Rare on August 27, then pushing further south, capturing the town of Kobo after federal forces withdrew. According to Tigrinya sources that are difficult to confirm, TDF forces also captured the village of Fokisa in Afar territory, thus greatly expanding the projection of their forces far beyond the southern border of Tigray regional state into the Zobel Mountains area.
Clashes increased in intensity in the days that followed, and on August 28 Tigrayan authorities reported an airstrike against targets in the center of the regional capital, Mekelle, where a school recreation area was reportedly hit, killing three children and four adults (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/aug/27/ethiopia-airstrike-hits-playground-in-tigray-killing-at-least-seven).
Federal authorities confirmed the attack but claimed to rule out any civilian casualties, shortly afterwards issuing an official statement in which they asked the people of Tigray not to approach the TPLF military infrastructure, which is the target of the airstrikes.

Q: Action Microsoft.crm.setup.shared.analyzerbase+collectaction failed I tried to install the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Report Authoring Extension (with SQL Server Data Tools support) after I successfully installed the Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 but an error came out saying I didn´t have the requisites, which was Visual Studio 2010.... and I have 2012... so, I downloaded the 2015 version, and once I tried to install it, after the updates and some downloads the setup does, the error: Action Microsoft.crm.setup.shared.analyzerbase+collectaction failed appeared and it wouldn't  let me go any further.
I found this article but is not exactly the same error:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2988630
And it lead me to delete some register files.... which is not always the best practice. If I could find something better.
I'm running Windows 8.1.
Anyhelp would be appreciated.

A: Ok..... I found the solution, as it is documented in this link:
I took a chance and deleted the specified registry.
"Expand the Windows Registry tree to the following registry directory:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\0EF1E6B4EFCDA2649B26A424D56DAACD"
The installation ran smoothly afterwards. Thanks for your time.

A: I got encountered this error while uninstall the MSCRM and I searched a lot but anything not helped.
At last I got resolved this issue when stopped the Microsof CRM  Asynchronous Service from service.msc

TRACK DRIVE: BMW M2 CS touches down in SA, but it's only for a select few
By Jason Woosey Nov 27, 2020
KYALAMI - Want the gist of this story in one paragraph? The BMW M2 CS has just been launched in South Africa. It's packed with many truly cool and unique features. It's an absolute stunner to drive. And it's unlikely that you'll be able to buy one.
Just 30 of these truly special M2 Coupes have been shipped to South Africa and 20 of them were auctioned off at Kyalami on November 26, with only a small selection of loyal customers being on the guest list. While the car's official list price is R1.61 million, BMW won't say how much the auctioned cars sold for but the company assures us that there was no 'profiteering' at play here as any extra proceeds over and above the list price went to BMW-aligned charities. As for the other 10… BMW says these will find their way to select dealers, no doubt to be sold to loyal customers who have already purchased a few M cars in their lifetime.
Local media had the privilege of piloting two of these 10 vehicles for a few laps around Kyalami on Thursday, but before we get into that, let's take a quick look at what makes the M2 CS so special.
For starters, it's more potent than the M2 Competition, with M engineers having tweaked the 3-litre straight-six turbopetrol engine to produce 331kW at 6250rpm and 550Nm between 2350 and 5500rpm. That, for the record, is 29kW more than you get in the M2 Competition. In fact, the M2 CS is in the same state of tune as the outgoing M3 and M4 models.
But BMW's performance division has done a lot more than just throw power at the challenge of creating the ultimate track day machine. BMW has also fitted a raft of lightweight components to offset the extra weight added by the enhanced cooling system and standard adaptive suspension. As a result, it has an identical kerb weight of 1550kg. The bonnet, for instance, is made from carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP), which makes it 50 percent lighter than a normal hood, and this material is also used for the roof and mirror caps. Furthermore, the vehicle is fitted with the same lightweight M Sport seats found in the M4 CS.
Another M4 inheritance comes in the form of the aforementioned Adaptive M suspension, while M Sport brakes are part of the deal too. However, you might just want to dig a little deeper in those pockets and opt for the M Carbon ceramic brakes with six-piston callipers.
The adaptive damping system allows drivers to choose between Comfort, Sport and Sport + modes, the latter being designed for track driving, and it's here that you'll also appreciate features like the Active M Differential, which compensates for the different rotational speeds of the back wheels.
Dynamic trickery abounds in just about every corner of this little rear-driven car. The CFRP strut brace, for instance, makes the front end of the car particularly stiff, which helps with turn in response. There's a big aerodynamic bag of tricks too, including a bespoke front splitter, Gurney spoiler lip on the boot lid and a rear diffuser in exposed carbon fibre.
So the M2 CS has all the ingredients for a truly exciting track weapon, and that's exactly what the finished product delivers. In truckloads.
Hitting the track
Both of our Kyalami test cars were equipped with the optional seven-speed M dual-clutch (M DCT) gearbox, but buyers who prefer to change gears the good old fashioned way can also opt for a six-speed manual - which is indeed a rare option these days.
Punch-in-the-gut acceleration comes as standard in both, with BMW claiming a 4.0 second 0-100km/h sprint time for the dual-clutch model and 4.2 seconds for the manual. Around Kyalami the engine and M DCT gearbox proved to be an impressively responsive combination allowing for instantaneous acceleration out of corners.
But what impressed me the most was the level of grip offered by those standard 19-inch Pilot Sport Cup tyres, created specifically for this car, and measuring 245/35 up front and 265/35 at the back. For a car that sends so much power to the rear wheels, the M2 CS is superbly planted and not as tail-happy as you might expect, although push it hard enough and it will bite, just like any rear-driven car. Those track-biased tyres also mean you'll have to pay a bit more attention in the wet.
I was thoroughly impressed by this car's overall sense of balance, and the way the back end can push it through corners with great precision, while the front axle has seemingly never heard of understeer. I also enjoyed the relatively beefy feeling of the steering, and the grippy Alcantara covered M Sport steering wheel added to the overall sensation.
While the M2 CS is a most enticing track toy, BMW also says it's a perfect everyday car too. Unfortunately I can't vouch for that as our driving session was limited to the track.
It does however come with the basic luxuries that you'd expect from a premium car, as well as a few decorative items that make it look and feel like a proper special edition. These include a centre console and door pulls finished in carbon fibre, door sill plates with M2 CS badging, illuminated M2 badging on the M Competition sports seats, M seat belts and contrast stitching in Fire Red.
As for exterior decor, the M2 is available in a range of colours including the exclusive Misano Blue, and buyers can also choose between Jet Black and Matt Gold wheels.
In closing, this is a truly special car with everything that the modern day purist could want in a performance machine, and as a result it is sure to become a collector's item.

Should You Allow Space Heaters in Your New Braunfels Rental Property?
Space heaters have a richly deserved esteem for enacting deadly accidents, henceforth they must not have consented in a rental home. We've all become aware the stories: a family goes to bed on a freezing winter night, their space heater holding the frigid air at bay – and they never wake up. It's either the electric heater has malfunctioned and overflowed the household with toxic fumes or it has ignited an electrical fire from which there is little opportunity to run away. Mischances such as these are too ordinary, and the last thing any New Braunfels property owner wants is to realize that such a mishap has come into being to their own residents.
For the most part, electric heaters are thought of to be unfailing for residential use than fuel-based models. But even electric heaters must be deployed within a stern jurisdiction and commensurate to the proposed safety operations. Children and pets are outstandingly unprotected to affliction due to space heaters, which assigns any resident with a family or pet in jeopardy. Not only that, there's no sure thing that your residents will understand or conform to the recommendable safety practices or use the space heater suitably, which may cause dreadful consequences.
Banning space heaters is not only an advisable preventive measure but also a crucial part of sheltering yourself and your real estate investment. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has considered that over 25,000 residential fires are caused by space heaters each year. These fires give rise to exceeding 300 deaths and 6,000 emergency room visits annually. While particular afflictions are burns from touching a space heater unit, some are significantly more awful.
As the rental property owner, you bring a high liability of liability if you sanction your residents to use space heaters. While your landlord's insurance shoulders for the disturbance to the rental home itself, if a space heater has elicited any loss of life or serious injury, which may spell more legal action against you. Lawsuits alleging negligence or more dreadfully could put at risk not only your means of support, but also your properties and, in some instances, your independence.
Regular property evaluations are decisive to securing your property from threats set forth by space heaters.

The explanation of the formal duality of Kerdock and Preparata codes is one of the outstanding results in the field of applied algebra in the last few years. This result is related to the discovery of large sets of quad riphase sequences over Z4 whose correlation properties are better than those of the best binary sequences. Moreover, the correlation properties of sequences are closely related to difference properties of certain sets in (cyclic) groups. It is the purpose of this book to illustrate the connection between these three topics. Most articles grew out of lectures given at the NATO Ad vanced Study Institute on "Difference sets, sequences and their correlation properties". This workshop took place in Bad Windsheim (Germany) in August 1998. The editors thank the NATO Scientific Affairs Division for the generous support of this workshop. Without this support, the present collection of articles would not have been realized.

New York City was a fantastic place in the early '90s. Brimming with talent, looks and excitement, the club scene unleashed an avalanche of party monsters who were more than eager to do their mash. Some media pundit called them "a world of disorientation, drug-induced euphoria and glamour beyond belief". Those carefree pre-Giuliani days proved to be unprecedented and they still have yet to be bettered.
A new crop of club kids and freaks suddenly set about throwing their weight around Manhattan's clubs and outlaw parties, not to mention the fun-packed annual Wigstock festival. They went out of their way to show off, shock and horrify the masses with their twisted imagination. The outfits they worked weren't just outrageous, they were purposely meant to disturb. As John Waters lovingly observed, "freaks should scare families, not make them feel good about themselves". However, if those kids were bent on shattering America's whiter-than-white conventions, they also secretly longed to embrace them in order to become rich and famous as quickly as possible.
At the helm, a fearless novice from South Bend, Indiana, soon realised that the city's dancefloors were paved with gold while he had a job emptying ashtrays at The Danceteria. His name was Michael Alig and he wasted no time securing financial support from coke-head Peter Gatien, The Limelight's eye-patched owner. That allowed him to promote innovative club nights and several outlaw parties in and around the Village. He had remarkable pulling power and never ran short of ideas. He loved creating cartoon characters for his entourage to play with, the likes of Clara the Carefree Chicken, the Drug Child (acted hilariously by James St James), Ulrich the Dog, IC the Bear, etc. He undoubtedly brought much-needed new blood to an anaemic scene and enabled it to thrive again.
However, curtains came down in the spring of 1996, complete with foul play, when the astronomical amount of drugs that Alig consumed finally got to his head. One night, a drug-related argument resulted in the well-documented gruesome murder of his dealer Angel Menendez. Michael got arrested and locked up for 17 years.
That truly marked the end of an era as New York's clubland sadly never saw lip-gloss quite so shimmering again. And if that momentous era paved the way to what is happening today, a fully-fledged renaissance is still well overdue.

Memorial Day 2012 at Luxembourg American Cemetery
Video of Memorial Day 2012: Luxembourg American Cemetery
U.S. Army Europe Commander, Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling, reflects on the high price of freedom during the 2012 Memorial Day Ceremony at Luxembourg American Cemetery on May 26, 2012. Video courtesy of American Forces Network Europe.
LT. GEN MARK HERTLING: This weekend, America honors those who gave their all for freedom and liberty. We memorialize the brave men and women who sacrificed for a cause greater than themselves. Just like here, there are dignitaries from the United States, generals, ambassadors, statesmen, politicians, traveling through various battlefields throughout Europe, all speaking about heroes -- our soldiers -- who gave so much for others.
Throughout history, armies have marched over ground to conquer it, to enslave the people, or to take the resources as their own. But as a soldier of the U.S. Army, the only ground our nation wants to occupy is ground like this … where we bury our dead. Our nation desires only liberty. Sometimes those who do not fight and die for the opportunity to be free often do not understand the high price that is paid for liberty. I have not found that to be the case here in Luxembourg. For me, the local citizens of the towns and villages throughout Luxembourg, who watch over the cemeteries and remember our soldiers with monuments, represent how everyone should remember our soldiers.
It's very quiet now. Listen to that quiet. But sixty eight years ago, battles raged in the cities and villages near here. Artillery pierced the air. Bullets screamed. Airplanes flew low. And in the sixty eight years since then, the seeds of hope and joy and freedom, planted and watered with the blood and tears of these young men who rest out there, have blossomed. And the citizens of Luxembourg have remembered. I learned that last spring, when I visited a small town strategically located, called Clervaux. We were on a battlefield staff ride with many of my commanders, studying the gruesome fighting that marked the beginning of the Ardennes offensive. We spent a day in Clervaux.
The citizens of the town found we out we were there, and they asked us to lay a wreath on one of the memorials in their city. Although I've laid wreaths at monuments to our fallen all across Europe, what was remarkable and moving was the enormous effort by the members of le Cercle d'Etudes sur la Bataille des Ardennes (Ceba), (the Center for the Study of the Battle of the Ardennes) to preserve the memory of the soldiers who fought and died in that town, and in many others towns throughout Luxembourg. In November, 1944, Clervaux had been liberated from four years of German occupation. The citizens were beginning to speak French again, and they no longer were wearing the pins which stated "Heim ins Reich." The city was returning to the peaceful life it knew before 1940. But in the pre-dawn hours of a cold and snowy 16 December, the quiet was shattered by the crash of a seemingly endless artillery barrage, which foreshadowed an assault from some of Germany's most elite troops in a desperate bid to divide allied lines. After hours of vicious street to street fighting, the men of Pennsylvania's 28th division, some of whom lay in rest here, scrambled into the castle of Clervaux to make a final stand. Stung by massive artillery fire, and surrounded by a sea of tanks and German Infantry, they put up a stubborn defense, hanging on desperately until they were out of ammunition and the castle of Clervaux lay in burning ruins around them. As the panzers broke through their last defense, the few men left were forced to surrender. But their sacrifice was not lost on the citizens of Clervaux. On that day, the citizens saw first-hand the price those young Americans made to defend a country they did not know, to defend a people they had never met. After the tide was turned, and the soldiers of 12 different U.S. divisions liberated Clervaux once again, the people of the town were determined to honor the legacy of those brave young men.
The citizens have adopted the veterans of Clervaux as their own. Today, the people of that small Luxembourg town have hosted veterans and their families for sixty-eight-years in annual commemorations to thank them for their sacrifice. Many of the men who perished in frigid December battles -- at Clervaux, at Berle', at Moutfort, at Pe'tange, at Vianden, and at many other -- are interred here at Hamm. Forever young. But their legacy will live on. That legacy will live on thanks to the people of Clervaux, and to the people of Luxembourg. On the hallowed grounds of the this cemetery, under the eternal gaze of that angel of peace up there lie interred 5,076 young American men and one American woman. 371 more are memorialized on the pylons flanking the chapel. This cemetery was established on 29 December, 1944, only 13 days after the enemy assault on the Ardennes.
Although Scott and the American Battle Monuments Commission preserve this sacred place with diligent reverence, the people of Luxembourg bless us with their continued service in honoring these heroes. And every year since 1945, American people and the Duchy of Luxembourg have commemorated memorial day here. I would suggest the most heartfelt tribute paid by the people of Luxembourg who continue to visit these graves, and who leave a small token of respect to soldiers who their only connection is eternal gratitude. But the soldiers who are lying out there, all 5,000 plus, continue to do their duty just like the soldiers do today, because they remind us of that sacrifice. Sixty eight years have brought healing and hope to Europe, and a friendship between Luxembourg and America that is born through a common love of freedom. But today our young men and women, as already has been mentioned, are part of an alliance on other battlefields in distant lands, where the cost of liberty is no cheaper than it was in 1944. Soldiers, just like those standing in formation from the three four Infantry who just returned from Afghanistan, still today soldiers remind us of our commitment to one another. And our commitment to freedom. The price of liberty is high. Those who are asked to pay that price should remain in our memory and they should remain forever young. I believe the people of Luxembourg understand that, and for this old soldier and his wife will be forever grateful. Thank you very much, and God bless you all.

Turkey Convicts four Human Rights Activists on Terror Prices
By Admin_EB
(ISTANBUL) — A Turkish court docket on Friday convicted Amnesty Worldwide's former Turkey chairman, Taner Kilic, of membership in a terror group and sentenced him to greater than six years in jail.
The court docket additionally convicted three different human rights activists — Günal Kurşun, Idil Eser and Özlem Dalkıran — of fees of aiding a terror group, sentencing them to 2 years and one month every. Seven different activists, together with German citizen Peter Steudtner and Swede Ali Gharavi, have been acquitted of the fees.
Ten of the activists have been detained in a police raid in July 2017 whereas attending a digital safety coaching workshop on Buyukada island, off Istanbul. The 11th activist, Kilic, was detained individually a month earlier within the metropolis of Izmir.
Ten defendants have been charged with aiding terrorist organizations, together with the community led by a U.S.-based cleric, which the Turkish authorities blames for the 2016 coup try and has designated as a terror group.
Kilic was accused of membership in cleric Fethullah Gulen's community. Gulen denies allegations that he engineered the coup try.
Their trial heightened issues about Turkey's remedy of human rights defenders and helped bitter Turkey's relations with European nations, notably Germany.
Amnesty Worldwide condemned the ruling as a "crushing blow for human rights and for justice" in Turkey.
"At present, we have now borne witness to a travesty of justice of spectacular proportions," mentioned Andrew Gardner, Amnesty Worldwide's Turkey researcher who noticed the listening to. "The court docket's verdict defies logic and exposes this three-year trial because the politically motivated try and silence impartial voices."
The 4 convicted activists, who have been launched from jail pending the end result, have been anticipated to enchantment the decision. All 11 defendants maintained their innocence all through the trial.
Gardner mentioned: "This case has been a litmus check for the Turkish justice system. As such, it's tragic to see the half it has performed and continues to play in criminalizing the act of standing up for human rights."
This story has been corrected to indicate that the three different human rights activists have been sentenced to 2 years and one month, not one 12 months and one month.

Advancing National Service
This Florida Jail Is Giving Vets a Second Chance
by Jenny Shank
John Moore/Getty Images
Veterans who land in the Pasco County Jail stay in a separate wing and receive special services.
The rough return to civilian life after military service too often puts faltering veterans on the wrong side of the law. But many believe those who have served their country should have another chance to turn their lives around. That's why the Pasco County Jail in Land O' Lakes, Fla., has created a separate pod to house 32 veteran inmates together and offer them therapy, substance abuse help, job training, and housing assistance so that when they get out, they can land on their feet.
Sheriff Chris Nocco told Eddie Daniels of the Tampa Tribune, "They served their country; they have proven to us as a nation that they can do the right thing. This is about an opportunity for them to lift themselves up, back on their feet again, and be productive members of society."
Several other communities are trying to help veterans who've landed in trouble with the law. Law enforcement officials have established special courts just for military veterans in Philadelphia, Buffalo, N.Y., San Diego and elsewhere.
Brian Anderson of Pasco County Veterans Services told Daniels, "They actually sacrificed part of themselves for the better cause of America. … Some of the issues they're facing that lands them in predicaments like this are probably attributed to the service they gave."

WOW! The whole world admires this Hungarian-designed car! – photos
car Hungary technology
Photo: http://www.icona-designgroup.com
Icona's vision for the future of mobility was made by Attila Bocsi, a Hungarian designer, and it was first showed in the Italian National Auto Museum of Turin.
The forum called "Mobility and design" was very popular both among locals and journalists because Attila Bocsi's name is well-known in not only the Hungarian but also in the international car designing industry, Origo reported.
He started his career 25 years ago at the Art Centre College of Design of Los Angeles. Later, he worked in Germany, Switzerland, and France and designed vehicles like the Peugeot 107, the Peugeot Expert, and the Peugeot 508 RXH. Furthermore,
he designed the car with which Sébastien Loeb won
the Pikes Peak international hill climb in 2013.
The exterior is beautiful and clear-cut. Photo: http://www.icona-designgroup.com/en/icona-nucleus-2-2/
He also made the Peugeot Vision GT for the Granturismo company, and the appearance of the Airbus H160 helicopter is his work as well. Currently, he is working as the leader of his design team for Icona in Turin, Italy.
His latest car, Nucleus, would like to show the future of driving: an electric luxury vehicle driven by a built-in computer.
The range of Nucleus is 1,200 km,
of which 700 km can be fulfilled with the batteries and 500 km with a hydrogen engine.
According to icona-designgroup.com, Nucleus represents the synthesis of futurism and a human-centred mindset. It introduces us to after-tomorrow, they say. Inside the vehicle, the absence of a driver does not only mean the absence of a steering wheel and a dashboard but the opportunity for a new understanding of mobile living
spaces, where
the focus is no longer on the road but on the destination.
Photo: http://www.icona-designgroup.com/en/icona-nucleus-2-2/
Mobility in after-tomorrow will be very different from today, with a large number of shared, self-driving, electric vehicles, which will serve as individual or small group shuttles between mass mobility infrastructure and large hub destinations. One car will replace several cars, and by nature will be an excellent place to be: its use and versatility will be directly reflected in the multiple possibilities of its interior design.
Being fully autonomous, there is no side glass in the traditional sense, rather semi-transparent bodycolour panels that allow the occupants to see out from the vehicle but remain shrouded for privacy while travelling.
a protective bubble,
the Nucleus protects and embraces its passengers, at the same time offering a stunning view of the outside, thanks to an extremely wide glass surface which constitutes the majority of the upper body.
The Nucleus can easily accommodate six people. Seats can be adjusted to different uses, rotating to face the desk or the rear passengers in the front, strongly reclining to the rear, and even transforming into a couch on centre.

Climbing Kilimanjaro is a wonderful experience at any time of the year, but if you would like to make your way to the 'Roof of Africa' under a full moon, you need to plan your climb to coordinate with Kilimanjaro's Full Moon dates for 2014.
Summiting in the moonlight is a magical experience, with glittering glaciers and twinkling stars all around, and as the full moon provides enough light to see the path ahead, you can turn off your headlamp (and the uncomfortable glare that goes with it!), and appreciate the beauty of the night sky.
Depending on the route you choose, Machame, Marangu, Lemosho, Rongai, or Umbwe, and the length of your Kilimanjaro climb (6-9 days), you will need to start your trek 3-6 days ahead of the New Moon to ensure you summit on the evening of Africa's newest moon.

VW expects battery, raw material drive to cost up to $34bn
VW expects battery, raw material drive to cost up to $34bn /node/1978816/business-economy
https://arab.news/mw53u
Updated 01 December 2021
Schmall is overseeing Volkswagen's ambitious plan to build six large battery cell plants in Europe by the end of the decade
Volkswagen's planned European battery cell plants and securing vital raw materials will cost as much as 30 billion euros ($34 billion), board member Thomas Schmall said, putting a price tag on the expansion for the first time.
Schmall, who is in charge of technology at Europe's largest carmaker, said in an interview at  the  Reuters Next conference that Volkswagen would seek outside partners to fund it."
"We are talking about 25 to 30 billion (euros) ... including the vertical chain of raw materials, not only the factories," the 57-year old said, adding VW would not have to take the lead on funding and was not aiming for a 50/50 investment split.
"It depends on the partnership model we will establish in the next months. We're open to discuss it. For us it's necessary that we can control ... the technology roadmap, the timing, the costs and the availability to enable our rollout."
Schmall is overseeing Volkswagen's ambitious plan to build six large battery cell plants in Europe by the end of the decade, a strategic pillar in its bid to overtake Tesla and become the world's top electric vehicles seller.
Sweden's Northvolt, the first plant in which Volkswagen owns a fifth, will start production premium cells for the German carmaker from 2023. The second plant, to be built jointly with China's Gotion High-Tech in Salzgitter, is to start in 2025.
Four more plants will follow by the end of the decade, most likely in Spain, eastern Europe and two additional locations that have so far not been disclosed.
Costs will be 1 billion to 2 billion euros per plant while capacity will range from 40 up to a maximum of 80 gigawatt hours (GWh), depending on the chemistry as well as whether enough energy supplies are available, Schmall said.
"We have some natural limits in the availability of utilities, energy, water," he said.
But production capacity is only one part of the equation, Schmall said, adding that Volkswagen also had to make sure it gets enough raw materials, such as lithium and nickel.
This requires a more proactive approach and Schmall said that Volkswagen was looking to strike partnerships, with cooperation announcements due "in some weeks."
Volkswagen, which plans to submit its next five-year investment plan to the supervisory board on Dec. 9, is pursuing a mix of strategies, which might even include becoming a shareholder in a mining firm.
"You will see the full range," Schmall said, also referring to fixed and mixed price contracts with suppliers. "You have to tailor-fit solutions, necessarily, to specific raw materials."
This also requires making sure that materials are procured sustainably, which, in Volkswagen's case, includes transparency reports, supplier ratings, and efforts to phase out some materials, most notably cobalt.
In the end, Schmall said, the goal was to ensure that the full production chain was sustainable, adding that producing electric vehicles alone was not enough for Volkswagen, which is aiming to be carbon neutral by 2050 at the latest.
"And this altogether brings us in this closed loop and hopefully show you that we are taking care from the beginning on, from the first step, from the mining process, to be sustainable, until the last point of battery lives and car lives and recycling," he said.

South Korea seeks to boost clean energy efforts with UAE cooperation
Seoul and Abu Dhabi reach landmark $3.5 billion defense agreement — largest in South Korea's arms history
President Moon Jae-in scheduled to travel to Saudi Arabia on Tuesday
SEOUL: South Korea is seeking to increase hydrogen cooperation with the UAE in a bid for a sustainable future and carbon neutrality, President Moon Jae-in said on Monday in Abu Dhabi during his Middle East tour to explore business opportunities in the region.
Moon arrived in the UAE on Saturday for a three-day visit as part of his week-long Middle East trip. From Abu Dhabi he will fly for talks in Riyadh.
"Through hydrogen cooperation between the UAE and Korea, I hope that we can move forward in a sustainable future and carbon neutrality," he said while addressing the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week.
As South Korea wants to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, Moon said Seoul wants to bolster cooperation with the UAE in the development of carbon-capture technologies to create what is known as blue hydrogen — a form of the fuel obtained from natural gas in a process that stops carbon emissions from being released into the atmosphere.
The UAE is one of the world's foremost pioneers in the field.
Prof. Jung Sang-ryul of the Institute of Middle Eastern Affairs at Myungji University in Seoul told Arab News that with UAE-Korean hydrogen cooperation, the industry "can make a greater leap forward.
"The hydrogen industry is a field for future cooperation," he said. "The UAE has strengths in the production of green and blue hydrogen, whereas South Korea (has) in utilization, storage and distribution, including hydrogen-powered vehicles, charging stations, fuel cells and liquid transportation."
During Moon's visit, Seoul and Abu Dhabi also reached a landmark $3.5 billion defense agreement on Sunday, under which the UAE will purchase KM-SAM surface-to-air-missiles, known as Cheongung II. It is the largest deal in the history of South Korea's arm exports.
"The UAE is the first foreign nation to operate the Cheongung II," Kang Eun-ho, commissioner of the Defense Acquisition Program Administration, Seoul's arms procurement agency, said in a statement. "The deal is the result of the bilateral defense cooperation based on mutual trust and will serve as a watershed moment for the two nation's strategic defense partnership."
The KM-SAM was developed with technical support from Russia to replace the older Hawk surface-to-air missiles that had been in service in 1964. Equipped with a multi-function phased array 3D radar, the interceptor can "hit-to-kill" hostile missiles coming in at altitudes below 40 km.
On the sidelines of the missile acquisition contract, the two countries also signed a memorandum of understanding on collaboration in defense technologies, including the potential development of weapons systems.
The UAE is South Korea's top export market and biggest partner in human resource exchanges in the Middle East.
South Korean firms have participated in the development of Emirati oil fields and the Barakah nuclear power plant — the first nuclear power station in the Arabian Peninsula, which started operations last year.
On Tuesday, the South Korean president will continue his trip to Saudi Arabia.
His office said in a statement that Moon is scheduled to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
"The leaders of the two nations are expected to discuss energy and infrastructure, as well as health care, science and technology, hydrogen, intellectual property and education,"the office said.
On Wednesday, Moon is scheduled to meet Gulf Cooperation Council secretary-general Nayef bin Falah Al-Hajraf to discuss the resumption of negotiations for a free trade agreement between Seoul and GCC.
South Korea and the GCC started talks on a free trade deal in 2007, but negotiations had stalled and were suspended in 2010.

Europe energy savings practices is inefficient, auditors say
BRUSSELS: More than 2 billion euros of European Union funding to help businesses save energy contributed little to climate change targets and in some cases funded investments that would have happened anyway, according to an auditor report released on Monday.
The EU regards curbing energy use as essential to meeting goals to cut greenhouse gas emissions, and record high gas and power prices in recent months have increased the focus on measures to save energy.
But so far, EU funding to support energy savings for businesses has not been effective, the European Court of Auditors said in a report.
The EU spent 2.4 billion euros ($2.74 billion) from its budget over 2014-2020 to support energy efficiency in enterprises, including energy audits and measures to cut energy consumption or energy intensity in industry, services or the public sector.
The auditors estimated that projects backed by that funding achieved 0.3 percent of the annual savings needed to reach the EU's target to cut final energy consumption by 32.5 percent by 2030, compared to projected levels.
"European Union funding is insufficiently linked to business needs — there was no proper analysis of what is really needed by the enterprises," ECA member Samo Jereb told Reuters.
Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy and Poland, accounted for the bulk of the support.
Brussels plans to increase its 2030 energy saving target, and last year unveiled plans to renovate millions of buildings to achieve the huge energy efficiency improvements needed to meet its climate goals. Residential energy savings were not covered by the auditors' report.

Singapore's central bank issues guidelines to discourage crypto public trading: Crypto moves
RAYANA ALQUBALI
RIYADH: Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency internationally, traded lower on Monday, falling by 1.48 percent to $42,558 at 6:51 p.m. Riyadh time.
Ether, the second most traded cryptocurrency, was priced at $3,241 down by 3.14 percent, according to data from Coindesk.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore issued on Monday guidelines restricting cryptocurrency trading service providers from promoting their services to the general public, as part of an effort to protect retail investors from potential risks.
In the new guidelines, MAS asserts that companies should not engage in marketing or advertising of DPT services in public areas in Singapore or through third parties, such as social media influencers, to promote DPT services to the general public. They can only market or advertise on their own corporate websites, mobile applications or official social media accounts.
Singapore is a popular location for cryptocurrency companies due to its relatively clear regulatory and operational environment and is among the forerunners globally in developing a formal licensing framework.
The city state authorities have also repeatedly warned that trading in digital payment tokens or cryptocurrency, is highly risky and unsuitable for the general public, as they are subject to sharp speculative swings.
"MAS strongly encourages the development of blockchain technology and innovative application of crypto tokens in value-adding use cases" Loo Siew Yee, MAS assistant managing director of policy, payments and financial crime, said in a statement.
"But the trading of cryptocurrencies is highly risky and not suitable for the general public. DPT service providers should therefore not portray the trading of DPTs in a manner that trivializes the high risks of trading in DPTs, nor engage in marketing activities that target the general public."
Jack Dorsey, CEO of Block, said in a tweet that the fintech company is building an open bitcoin-mining system, as the newly rebranded company looks to expand beyond its payment business and into new technologies like blockchain.
In October, Dorsey said that Block, formerly Square, was considering building a bitcoin-mining system based on custom silicon and open source for individuals and businesses worldwide.
In a tweet thread on Thursday, Block's general manager for hardware, Thomas Templeton, laid out the company's plans to build the mining system.
"We want to make mining more distributed and efficient in every way, from buying, to set up, to maintenance, to mining. We're interested because mining goes far beyond creating new bitcoin. We see it as a long-term need for a future that is fully decentralized and permissionless," Templeton tweeted.

RIYADH: Some military affiliated companies operating in the economy and civil sectors are being restructured to be listed on Cairo's Stock Exchange next year, Egypt's Prime Minister, Mostafa Madbouly, said.
The companies will be available to all Egyptians, not just the private sector, he added during his interview on a BBC program, citing President Abdel Fattah El Sisi's statement.
Soliman did not disclose the names of other companies affiliated with the Egyptian army that are planned to be listed, until the validity of their legal structures is verified.
"We have offered more than 25 percent of the wholly state-owned e-finance company on the EGX, and many companies, including companies affiliated with the armed forces, are scheduled to be offered on the stock exchange next year," Madbouly said.
He added that the size of the armed forces' institutions represents less than 1 percent of the Egyptian economy.
Ayman Soliman, the CEO of the Sovereign Fund of Egypt had previously revealed the organisation was in the process of completing the legal restructuring of two affiliated companies, namely the Safi food company and the Watania petroleum distribution company, with both set to be listed on the stock exchange.

Each year, the Easton Community Foundation selects 6 local charities to support as part of its Change for Charity initiative. This program uses money collected through Easton parking meters and parking tickets to support these selected Change for Charity recipients. Since the program was started, it has raised nearly $7 million for local charities in the Columbus community.
The recipient of 2018's September and October donations is HandsOn Central Ohio, an organization focused on connecting residents and companies to volunteer opportunities that strengthen Central Ohio. Last year alone, HandsOn Central Ohio gathered 15,000 volunteers that contributed 50,000 hours of community service valued at $1.3 million.
What do you love about being a part of HandsOn Central Ohio, and what do you want people to know about the organization?
I love that our organization connects everyday residents and companies with specific engagement opportunities that directly impact the community. Our mission is to align community resources and generate insights that strengthen Central Ohio. We do this by ensuring people have the right resources, at the right time and in the right place.
We use community data to identify the needs of Central Ohio neighborhoods and use this information to form strategic partnerships, create innovative solutions and match volunteers with causes based on their best interests.
Our organization has two drivers of social impact: mobilizing volunteers to do service and providing 2-1-1 Information & Referral services to Franklin County.
With volunteering, we help people in the community connect with causes they're passionate about and find opportunities to give back. It's a strategy for employers to use with associate engagement, or for civic groups looking for ways to demonstrate pride in their neighborhoods.
Our 2-1-1 Information & Resource Referral contact center provides residents with free access to thousands of service interventions and resources at clinics, organizations and government agencies across Franklin County, 24-hours a day, every day. It's a simple way for people to navigate the growing complexity of Central Ohio. Annually, 2-1-1 responds to over 350,000 requests for help with food security, affordable housing, transportation, and other basic needs.
How does HandsOn Central Ohio determine the volunteer efforts it supports? Can you provide a couple examples of causes or programs the organization supports?
Generally, we support any effort to strengthen Central Ohio. Part of what makes Columbus special is the enthusiasm people have for getting engaged and making their community an even better place to live. We manage volunteercentralohio.org—a virtual home for anyone interested in recruiting volunteers, organizing a volunteer event or being a volunteer in our community.
While we support the full spectrum of volunteerism, our community data clearly points to food security, affordable housing and transportation as being areas with the greatest opportunity to make an impact. Many of our more targeted volunteer efforts are focused on these issues. They support local food pantries, serve meals and deliver food to senior citizens; and help engage the region's growing community of entrepreneurs in projects that develop solutions to improve our social service delivery system.
What sort of activities or events does your charity organize?
Another way we strengthen Central Ohio is through our HandsOn Neighborhood Ambassador Program—a network of volunteers that develop and implement unique solutions to social challenges in their communities.
Our Neighborhood Ambassadors help us raise awareness of the services offered through HandsOn Central Ohio, spread hope and share resources with those in need and encourage others to get involved by supporting local volunteer opportunities.
We also partner with companies that want to give back by helping organizations identify volunteer opportunities and assist with the management of custom projects for National Days of Service. It is important for youth and residents of all ages to actively engage in being the change in our community. For MLK Day volunteers have painted historic murals, completed community beautification projects for Make A Difference Day, created little libraries to encourage literacy for National Volunteer Week, and honored lives lost at our annual 9/11 Flag Tribute at the Ohio Statehouse.
Some of the companies we've worked with to create custom volunteer opportunities include Honda, Huntington and Ohio State University. We also partner with LBrands' community relations team to connect their employees to more than 250 volunteer opportunities annually.
What have been some of HandsOn Central Ohio's biggest accomplishments in the past five years?
We're very proud of the work our organization is doing to build healthy communities and provide opportunities for civic engagement. Some of our biggest accomplishments include creating new partnerships with LBrands, AEP, Alliance Data Systems, The Ohio State University and the Easton Community Foundation. Our sense of accomplishment is fueled by the opportunity to contribute to the great works being done across Central Ohio, and we're honored to have our efforts recognized by others in the community. We have been recognized as one of 5 Nonprofits to Watch by the Columbus Foundation, received the Ohio Nonprofit Excellence Award for Innovation from the Ohio Association of Nonprofit Organizations, and received the Medical Mutual Pillar Award for Community Service.
What does it mean to be a part of the Change for Charity program? We know there were many other deserving organizations considered for this opportunity and we're honored to be among the few selected. We're appreciative of the opportunity to work with Easton, raise awareness of our work and mission, and help more people get involved to in strengthening the community.
How does your organization plan to use the funds it raises from the Change for Charity program? The community is growing and that is driving more demand for the programs and services we offer. These funds will help us keep up with the growing demand.
Other than participate in Change for Charity, how can people support HandsOn Central Ohio?
If you're looking for local volunteer opportunities, visit our website or give us a call! Employers can partner with us to engage their associates with a corporate volunteer program. Groups can form teams to join with us for our citywide service days, such as 9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance, MLK Day, National Volunteer Week, and Make A Difference Day. Individuals can become a Neighborhood Ambassador. Medical service providers can partner with our 2-1-1 service to better connect them to people who need primary and preventative care.
Events like these bring the community together and enable us to educate attendees about volunteerism. You can also find us serving beer during Food Truck Friday at Easton! Beverage proceeds during Food Truck Friday will support our organization. We value all contributions to help better our organization and appreciate this opportunity from Easton Community Foundation.
If you'd like to get involved with HandsOn Central Ohio, visit their website, or give them a call at (614) 221-6766! You can also learn more about donating to HandsOn Central Ohio here.

Adapted from Nick Moran and James Hicks' critically-lauded stage play, Telstar tells the remarkable tale of eccentric, London-based songwriter/producer Joe Meek (Con O'Neill), whose innovative recording techniques ushered in a bold new era of rock 'n' roll in the late 1950s. Tone deaf and musically illiterate, Meek nevertheless had a lifelong obsession with music and a knack for producing. Though Meek's tireless work ethic ensured a tumultuous relationship with his band, his ramshackle, apartment recording studio provided just enough space to record, and experiment with such cutting-edge techniques as sampling and distortion. Meanwhile, his landlady Mrs. Shenton does her best to put up with the racket, and his main backer Major Wilfred Banks (Kevin Spacey) provides the cash to produce such hits as "Be-Bop-A-Lula", " Johnny Remember Me", and, of course, "Telstar".

How to Add Checkboxes to a Supplier Contract Document (Doc ID 1590234.1)
PeopleSoft Enterprise SCM Supplier Contract Management - Version 9.1 and later
We have a source document that contains an exhibit with checkboxes. These have been implemented in the XML document using Microsoft Word 2010 content controls (the checkbox control). The content control is inserted in the section correctly and can be saved/retrieved in a MS Word XML document. However, when checking the section into the Supplier Contract Management module, it appears to be corrupting the content control. When the section is previewed, the content controls show up as upside down question marks.


But I won a raffle recently! It was hosted by the Combined Book Exhibit, and they took my book — Redemption Red — and hosted it in their booth at last weekend's American Library Association show in Philadelphia! They also hosted me on their blog… check it out!
I could not stop giggling out loud at this book. Between the totally excellent 90's dotcom party setting and the strong personalities of the 'girlfriends', it was impossible to put down.
The plot is more compelling than most in this genre, and the humor quite entertaining. I am convinced that if you read this book you will want more from this author.
Stewart nailed life in late 90's NYC dot com era. If you lived through it, or are just curious, you must read this book.
Great character development and easy read.
It's a strange experience – reading the reactions of other people to something you tend and grow and nurture and then send out into the world. Kind of like getting a phone call from my son's teacher about something nasty he did at school. Yesterday. So maybe the purpose of this entire post is to try to celebrate something that I put out there doing well in the face of anticipating a call from the vice principal today about something ELSE that I've put out there doing things that are NOT SO NICE. I've warned him that the elf is watching… but this time of year is so tough for the little guys. So much excitement!
Wish me luck on that call… and let me know your thoughts on MEN AND MARTINIS! I'm about a quarter of the way through the sequel, and hope the publisher will want to release books two and three in 2014! If you haven't gotten yours yet, pick it up at Amazon, B&N or Kobo!

The result of the change of interacting and communication with clients, prospects and / or user is a total different profile of a marketer in future.
How communication could look like in 2025 you can see here.
The marketer will be the trusted advisor who will not post advertising any more. He will post on a 1:1 base the right content for you. Content from his company or, much better, external and independent content which is relevant for you right now. With this we will not talk anymore about annoying ads we like to block with an ad-blocker. We will not see any more products we have searched for once for weeks following us on every website.
The independent content is a great chance for publishing houses if they open their content for brand to use for their communication. It's not content marketing, it's about giving the right information at the right time to the right person… doesn't mater on which online or offline channel. The right information can be content, but also price, reviews, recommendations from other user, etc.
Be the marketer who is connected, be the networker and always the trusted advisor.
