Ursula breaks the silence: "There I felt lonely. I've never looked like in Ankara"
I felt "lonely" as a "president", "woman" and "European". Ursula von der Leyen It breaks the silence and returns to the "Sofa Gate" issue, the diplomatic clash that arose after visiting Ankara, when the European Commission president was left without a seat while Charles Michel and Recep Tayyip Erdogan sat on their seats next to another.
Once the photos became public, a large portion of European parties protested the treatment to which von der Leyen was subjected, which were deemed harmful to her image. Charges were immediately brought against them Erdogan, According to many, he is guilty of not preventing the embarrassment. The blame was mainly directed at Michel who did nothing to avoid the idiot, but rather accepted the Turkish president's invitation to sit while the other EU leader remained standing and then was invited to sit on the sofa opposite the Turkish foreign minister.
A scene that blatantly demonstrated some of the serious shortcomings of European institutions. First of all, the inability to react in a potentially explosive situation for the image in front of the world. But in the final analysis, the European double-headed problem without a leader is discovered, where one does not even know how to manage protocol Joint between two institutions must cooperate. It is an image that von der Leyen and Michel will never forget, so much so, he says AdnKronosThe two Presidents returned to talk about it to Conference of Presidents of the European Parliament After that was already a topic First clarification. Michel, according to the sources, would have asked "several times" to apologize for the gesture. But it does not seem that von der Leyen can pose the question in this simple way, so much so that in addition to speaking of embarrassment, he has also cited Articles 15 and 17 of the TEU, those that accord equal dignity to the Commission and the Council. The two presidents have formally promised to "move forward together" and so it will be very different after Ankara: But something has broken the already delicate balance between the two leaders who often express their weakness.

An agreement for the Hoa Binh Industrial Park rooftop solar power project in southern Vietnam was signed by Shire Oak International, Hoa Binh Infrastructure Construction Investment Corporation (HBI), and Hoa Binh Renewable Energy Investment Corporation (HRE) last week.
The signing event on November 18 commemorated the three parties' long-term collaboration, with the UK's Shire Oak International as the investor and developer, HBI as the industrial park owner, and HRE as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor, going in tandem with Vietnam's recent announcement of its commitment to reach a net-zero carbon emission target by 2050.
As part of this agreement, Shire Oak and HBI will jointly promote the solarization of Hoa Binh Industrial Park, located in Long An Province, in the Vietnamese market and in its vicinity, with a view to collaborating on similar projects in other industrial zones.
The planned project is 42 MW overall, with its systems designed, equipped, constructed, and installed by Shire Oak.
The solar energy components in the industrial park will reduce carbon emissions by 49,733 metric tons annually and produce about 59 million kWh per annum once they are fueled by solar power.
Over the assets' lifecycles, the park expects to save US$141 million on electric bills.
Shire Oak's price is substantially lower than that of the state-owned Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN), which allows businesses to expand and invest more.
Additionally, HBI's use of clean energy underscores its long-held motto 'For Customer Satisfaction and Sustainable Development,' thus presenting itself as an environmentally friendly company that prioritizes people.
Le Viet Ha, general director of HBI, said he promptly chose Shire Oak to install the solar rooftop systems for "lowering electricity costs and helping to protect the environment by using less fossil fuel-based energy sources."
Mark Shorrock, CEO of Shire Oak International, applauded the efforts to contribute to the sustainable development of the country.
"We are funded by the European government and pension money to deploy a no-cost solar rooftop on any factory in Asia," he said.
"Our business model is to own the project for its lifetime and sell cheaper and green electricity to our clients."
According to Matt Ryland, executive director of the British Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam, the solarization of Hoa Binh Industrial Park can "put Vietnam at the forefront of action being taken at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26), and make a great impact on sustainable development in the country."
"As we are all well aware, Vietnam is predicted to be hard hit by climate change, and therefore it is of even greater importance to build up its climate resilience planning and economic development in line with international standards," he emphasized.
Vietnam has targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by nine percent with domestic resources and 27 percent with international support by 2030 as per the Nationally Determined Contribution.
Ryland expected the targets would "encourage businesses and manufacturing facilities in Vietnam to actively look for sustainable options."
He added that Vietnam has become an attractive destination for foreign investors with its distinctive advantages, and Long An is one of the "rising stars" for the manufacturing sector.

Is the Hamilton Beach TrueAir the Right Model?
A Hamilton Beach TrueAir purifier is one example of a purifier that is made by a company dedicated to excellence in all of the products that they make.
By taking the time to examine all of the problems which traditionally plague the appliances that we use the most in our homes, Hamilton Beach works toward establishing a line of products that will alleviate all of those issues. The Hamilton Beach TrueAir is just an example of an air purifier that is designed to do exactly this.
When a Hamilton Beach True Air model is purchased for your home, you are making a decision to have cleaner air in your environment without spending a great deal of money to get it.
This model is very simple and will not have too many excesses involved.Instead of complicated cleaning methods and a number of controls to figure out, the TrueAir is simply a quiet and dignified air purifier that will do exactly what you purchased it for – air purification.
It is a very simple design and you do not have to worry about complicated controls.
Three different speed settings let you control how much air is being pushed through the unit.
Filters will need to be replaced within every 4 months for proper filtration.
What Does Hamilton Beach Air Purifier Offer?
This air purifier will use a 3M Filtrete filter to help purify the air of all of the contaminates in it which can work on impacting your health. Using this filter in your home will help to reduce the presence of dust, pollen, mold, dust mite debris, and all forms of pet dander.
A level of purification like this will work on preventing your allergies and asthma from becoming aggravated and you should be able to rest much more easily in your home.
With the filtration working in this manner, you should be able to spend more time focusing on what matters the most to you. You will not need to spend as much time frequently dusting or opening and closing the windows. Less money will be spend on medication that you take to alleviate your allergies.
This filter technology will help to capture all of these aggravating qualities from the air and let you breathe much more easily.
The Hamilton Beach True Air purifier is designed to work best in rooms of 210 square feet or smaller. This is comparable to a large bedroom, so including one of these purifiers in your room can help you sleep easier at night. It can make a major impact in your day in the long run.
The 3M Filtrete filter should be replaced within every 120 days. This can turn into about 3 filter replacements a year, which is fairly reasonable when you consider that each filter replacement will generally cost less than $15.
Regular replacement of these filters will be needed to make sure that the unit is always running effectively.
On top of regular filter replacement, you should take steps to dust off and clean the machine regularly. Dust and dirt will naturally build up on the surface of the machine and this can affect the air quality being produced by the unit. If you wipe it down regularly, however, and keep the surface of the unit clean, you should have no problems with maintaining the purification integrity of the model.
When you use the Hamilton Beach TrueAir model, you will have the option of 3 different fan speeds. The highest speed that you run will naturally make the loudest noise, while the quieter speeds will often be nothing more than a soft whisper.
Depending on the amount of white noise that you desire for your environment as well as the rate of purification you want, you will choose to run your purifier at different speeds.
The True Air is an inexpensively priced model, making it right for any home environment. Selling for under $45, you could introduce this air purifier into your home at any time that you want to bring better air quality into your environment.
No warranty is offered for this item because of its very inexpensive price, but very few users of the TrueAir have had a problem with defects in this unit. It makes an inexpensive yet effective way to make your home environment a cleaner place.
Asthma symptoms have been known to calm down after use of this purifier in the home.
The unit is compact and easy to put into any room that you need better air quality.
Using the Hamilton Beach TrueAir purifier will give you the best chance of introducing a decent air purifier into your home for the first time.
If you are looking for a number of features to aid the quality of your air, you may wish to find another air purifier. When you are simply looking for contaminates and allergens to be removed from the air, however, this is a good air purifier to start with.

Encyclopedia > Conic section
Conic section
In mathematics, a conic section is a curve that is formed by the intersection of the surface of an infinite cone and an infinite plane.
The most well-known members of this family of two-dimensional curves are the circle and the ellipse. These arise when the intersection is a closed curve[?]: the circle is a special case of the ellipse in which the plane is exactly perpendicular to the axis of the cone. If the plane is parallel to a generator line of the cone, the section is called a parabola. Finally, if the intersection is an open curve, and the plane is not parallel to a generator line of the cone, the figure is a hyperbola.
The degenerate cases, where the plane passes through the vertex of the cone, resulting in an intersection figure of a point, a straight line or a pair of lines, are not considered as conic sections.
In the Cartesian coordinate system, the graph of a quadratic equation in two variables is always a conic section, and all conic sections arise in this way. If the equation is of the form
<math>ax^2 + 2hxy + by^2 +2gx + 2fy + c = 0</math>
If h2 = ab, this equation represents a parabola.
If h2 < ab, this equation represents an ellipse.
If h2 > ab, this equation represents a hyperbola.
If a = b and h = 0, it represents a circle.
If a + b = 0, it represents a rectangular hyperbola.
An alternative definition of conic sections starts with a point F (the focus), a line L not containing F (the directrix) and a positive number e (the eccentricity). The corresponding conic section consists of all points whose distance to F equals e times their distance to L. For 0 < e < 1 we obtain an ellipse, for e = 1 a parabola, and for e > 1 a hyperbola. The case of a circle needs to be treated specially: one takes e = 0 and imagines the directrix infinitely far removed from the focus.
The eccentricity of a conic section is thus a measure of how far it deviates from being circular.
Conic sections are important in astronomy: the orbits of two massive objects that interact according to Newton's law of universal gravitation are conic sections if their common center of mass is considered to be at rest. If they are bound together, they will both trace out ellipses; if they are moving apart, they will both follow parabolas or hyperbolas.

In this paper, we review the history of scholarly finance research in the Asia Pacific Basin. We do this by analysing the four leading regional finance journals - Accounting and Finance, Australian Journal of Management, International Review of Finance and the Pacific-Basin Finance Journal - along five dimensions. The five dimensions are the most cited papers, noted authors, impact in terms of practice, research areas and a breakdown in terms of the development of the field according to Kuhnian concepts of normal science, anomalies and extraordinary science. We show that the Asia Pacific journals make a crucial contribution to research and practice both in the region and internationally.

6 Fastest Stock Cars in the World
In Norway, it isn't allowed to drive over 100 km/h on a few selected routes. To my knowledge, there are no cars on sale that aren't able to reach this speed. And just to illustrate how pointless is the indication of top speed, I'll mention that the venerable British Bentley launched the world's cheapest car that could reach 320 km/h a few years ago - but they must also admit that there was a straight stretch of the British islands that was long enough for the car to reach this top speed.
But this does not prevent the manufacturers in fighting to produce the world's fastest cars, some claiming the
theoretical peak speeds that are not proven - and even the winner has set a world record that is impossible to copy. Here are the 6 of the world's fastest stock cars ever produced:
6. McLaren F1 (240 mph - 386 km/h)
This old-trotter-of-1994's claims are still among the world's fastest. It has a top speed 386 km/h and achieves 0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds.
The model has a V12 engine that delivers 627 hp. The tough door slides up and gives the impression of bat wings. Batman would choose this one - in black.
5. Koenigsegg CCX (245 mph - 395 km/h)
This super car gives room for sudden spontaneity: 0-100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds. V8 engine of 806 hp "achieves a top speed of over 395 km/h", according to the manufacturer.
4. Saleen S7 Twin-Turbo (248 mph - 399 km/h)
This place really belongs to Bugatti Veyron, but as a special edition of this car goes even faster, we've dropped the whole car and included the somewhat unknown super car manufacturer Saleen.
Saleen S7 is equipped with a V8 engine of 750 hp, which can achieve a top speed of 399 km/h, and the model goes 0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds.
We have a feeling that it must be miserable to be on the test
track and see that one was so close to 400.
3. SSC Ultimate Aero TT (257 mph - 413 km/h)
The ultimate super car races off 0-100 km/h in just 2.7 seconds. With this you should probably make it everywhere on time.
Aero is equipped with a V8 engine with full 1183 hp and top speed is set at around 413 km/h.
2. Hennessey Venom GT and Koenigsegg Agere R (270 mph - 416 km/h, claimed 440 km/h)
These two cars we include in a high-highlighted parentheses. Both cars have totally insane "theoretical peak speeds", but as far as we know, none of these are officially tested. The
Supercars website claims that the cars can hit around 270 mph.
Hennessey Venom is perhaps the more impressive of the two, considering that the car is equipped with "just" a V8 engine, and yet it manages to pull out 1200 horsepower. According to the manufacturer it should in theory be able to pass the 440 km/h mark, but strangely it is not proven.
1. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport (268 mph - 431 km/h)
Bugatti Veyron is, according to the rumors, a project at a loss, despite the car's exceptional price, and has largely been only a prestige project for Volkswagen.
So bad was it that Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson was a bit sad test driving it, because he was convinced that we would never come close to seeing a car of that caliber. But he was wrong. Bugatti then created a new version of the car - this time with 1200 horsepower. The car went straight into the record books, with a top speed of 431 km/h (actually topped the 434.2 km/h on the second part of the record attempt). The price of its predecessor in Norway was about 1,6 million euros. The price in Germany was 1,95 million euros – 750,000 euros more than its predecessor!

Arrested or charged with a DUI or DWI?
Driving under the influence (DUI) means operating a motor vehicle after consuming alcohol or drugs that have impaired a person's mental or motor skills. In most states, a person will be considered "impaired" if they exhibit objective signs of intoxication, or if they have a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher. Many states also have zero tolerance laws for drivers under 21, where any non-zero BAC level constitutes an offense. Most states also hold commercial drivers, such as truck drivers, to a more rigorous standard.
Law enforcement officers use a variety of tests, such as field sobriety tests and breathalyzers, to determine whether a driver is impaired by alcohol. In some jurisdictions, you have a right to refuse some of these tests, but in other jurisdictions you may be required to submit to them. It is important to know the law in your particular state, and to consult a DUI attorney if you are facing charges.
DUI lawyers are criminal defense attorneys focused on representing clients facing DUI/DWI/OWI charges. Each state has different DUI laws. An experienced DUI lawyer will be able to evaluate the case against you and present your options on how to best limit the impact of the charges against you. DUI lawyers also handle related cases such as driver's license reinstatement and DUI record expungement.
Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC): The percentage of alcohol in a person's blood.
Field Sobriety Test: Any one of several roadside tests that can be used to determine whether a driver is impaired.

Q: Overloading browser's window object - Will it cause performance issues? I am integrating different third paty tools with my project say newrelic, branchIO etc.., I am loading all of its js in the window object.
Currently i am trying to use one of the internationalization libraries. I have 2 plans.
1)To load the (en/es)translation-keys.json (a file which has key value pairs where values are the texts in corresponding languages) on window object.
2)To load the file in my application's globalState.
Also i have plans to add more 3rd party tools which would be loaded in the window object in future.
My question is, Will overloading browser's window object with many files cause performance issue? If it is so, is there any other way to improve the performance?

A: if you are using HTML and js you can use defer and async to control when and how the file.js can load.
and for a more advanced option, you can create the import of js file with js
    const script = document.createElement('script');

//  local file
// script.setAttribute('src', 'another-file.js');

//  remote file
script.setAttribute(
  'src',
  'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js',
);

script.setAttribute('async', '');

and that with the concept of (async, await, and promise) you can have full control of how & when to load your files.

New director promises to address 'unique and significant' challenges to OPM
Kiran Ahuja was sworn in as director of the Office of Personnel Management on June 24. (Andrew Harnik/AP)
The new director for the Office of Personnel Management has expressed her commitment to strengthening the agency that was on the chopping block less than a year ago.
Kiran Ahuja was sworn in as the OPM chief on June 24, two days after the Senate confirmed her for the position in a contentious vote.
"OPM has faced unique and significant challenges, and it will take time to fully address them. But I'm confident we'll come out stronger on the other side — because we will do this together. I strongly believe with all of you, we are well-positioned for our next chapter as an agency," Ahuja said at her virtual swearing-in ceremony in an address to OPM's workforce.
"I know you are already tackling the major issues of our times. From shaping how and where we work in the future to ensuring everyone is safe while working during this pandemic, and discussions regarding how we rebuild our federal workforce. There's no shortage of conversations to be had and issues to tackle," she added.
OPM has been under intense political pressure over the last few years. The Trump administration proposed getting rid of the agency and merging its functions with the General Services Administration and the Executive Office of the President as part of a sweeping government reform plan.
The agency was also the vehicle for many of the Trump administration's workforce reform initiatives, such as changing how agencies collectively bargain with employee unions and cracking down on poor-performing individuals .
President Joe Biden overturned most of those initiatives in his first few weeks in office, but OPM has a history of inconsistent leadership. The agency had five different directors — two of which were confirmed by the Senate — in the last four years.
Ahuja promised OPM employees that she is "in this for the long haul," reiterating commitments to Congress that she intends to serve out a full term as director.
"You are building, strengthening, and supporting the world's best workforce. I truly believe that. Every single person at OPM is helping to recruit, retain and honor the workforce that's landing rovers on Mars, fighting climate change and cancer, and building this country back better," Ahuja wrote in a June 24 letter to employees.
"That's a tall order, and it's not easy. It's no secret that OPM has faced serious challenges. Through it all, you've stood by this agency."
