Del Stark, Chief Executive European Nanotechnology Trade Alliance
The UK had an early interest in nanotechnology, with a Department of Trade & Industry (DTI) National Nanotechnology Initiative (NION) announced in 1986, followed in 1988 by a four-year LINK Nanotechnology programme. After this time there was no national strategy for nanotechnology in the UK, although dispersed research involving nanoscale science continued to be funded. In 1997, the Institute of Nanotechnology (IoN), a registered charity, was created to fill the gap and act as a focus of interest in nanotechnology throughout the UK. The Institute grew out of the Centre for Nanotechnology, which had received a small amount of funding under NION to raise awareness of nanotechnology and its applications.
The Institute of Nanotechnology is a recognised global leader in its field and has recently established the European Nanotechnology Trade Alliance as a trade body designed to represent industry. Experts from the UK Advisory Group for Nanotechnology applications suggest the UK should focus on six application areas where they reckoned the UK has research strength and industrial opportunities.
These are: electronics and communications; drug delivery systems; tissue engineering, medical implants and devices; nanomaterials, particularly at the bio/medical/functional interface; instrumentation, tooling and metrology; and sensors and actuators.
The UK has now become a European leader in nanotechnology investment. In 2002, the Department of Trade and Industry dedicated approximately £30m to nanoscale research, on top of existing funding for subject-specific research councils. This figure however will be dwarfed by the new UK Initiative, which will seek to place nanoscale research firmly in the mainstream of future technology development.
The UK has now become a European leader in nanotechnology investment
On 2 July 2003, Lord Sainsbury, Science and Innovation Minister, announced a cash injection of £90m over the next six years to help industry harness the commercial opportunities offered by nanotechnology. Existing and anticipated micro and nanotechnology projects supported by the UK development agencies are expected to exceed £200m over the next few years. From an industrial point of view the UK is leading in many fields including bionanotechnology, nanomedicine, materials science and metrology.
The UK has about 171 companies involved in nanotechnology research and commercialisation. Thomas Swan for instance has recently launched its new Carbon Nanomaterials business that is dedicated to manufacturing commercial quantities of high-purity single and multi-wall carbon nanotubes under the Elicarb trademark. PSiMedica Limited, located in Malvern, was founded in 2000 to exploit the potential of BioSiliconTM, a new, proprietary biomaterial based on nanostructured porous silicon.
PSiMedica is focusing initially on the development of BioSiliconTM for the controlled release of therapeutic agents. NPL is the United Kingdom?s national standards laboratory, an internationally respected and independent centre of excellence in research, development and knowledge transfer in measurement and materials science. NPL has recently launched a metrology club to work with industry in developing new standards.
Nanotechnology has the potential to benefit society, individuals and industry alike. In light of the increasingly serious problems relating to the degeneration of the environment, threat to the biosphere, increasing demands for resources by developing countries, and the growing abyss between rich and poor, the European Nanotechnology Trade Alliance (ENTA) is particularly interested in promoting those nanotechnologies that offer sustainable energy generation, less resource-intensive manufacturing and cheaper and better medicines.
Supported by companies such as Procter and Gamble, BP International, Thomas Swan & Co., Nexia Solutions, Imerys, SmartBead Technologies and LOT-Oriel, the European Nanotechnology Trade Alliance, (ENTA), has been created to represent the interests of nanotechnology businesses across Europe. It will act to bridge the gap between industry, governments, science, and importantly, the public. Its aim is to promote the benefits of nanotechnology, while supporting all actions that ensure new nanotechnologies are developed in a safe and responsible manner.
Membership of ENTA is open to businesses and organisations for whom nanotechnology has or may have an impact, and includes patent agents and service organisations such as the Institute of Occupational Medicine, Mewburn Ellis LLP, Marks and Clerk and Darbys.
Membership of ENTA offers:
Membership of a trade body that interfaces with the public, the media, and government across Europe
Access to specially commissioned reports and studies
Networking opportunities and information sharing
Fast dissemination of news and hot topics
Information on international initiatives
Opportunities to meet potential partners and financiers
Access to specialist advice
Discounts on attendance at leading edge events, conferences and exhibitions
ENTA will work closely with the media and government bodies to express industry?s views and needs, on for example, legislation, standards, standard operating procedures, and build strong relationships with NGOs and the public so to ensure full community engagement.
ENTA fully endorses and supports the world movements aimed at delivering the eight Millennium Development Goals, such as eradicating poverty and disease to ultimately improving the life expectancy and quality of life for everyone in the developing world. Nanotechnology has a role to play in this from the production of clean drinking water to sustainability of new manufacturing processes.
ENTA held its first strategy meeting in London on 23 July to collect views and opinions relating to the nanotechnology community and its growing industry. Del Stark, Chief Executive of ENTA, said ?Industry will shape the future of ENTA in both advisory and member capacities.
Our meeting today teased out many issues of interest and concern, as wide as the need for public communication, in depth understanding of where potential risks may occur, a lack of precise definitions and the overall perception barrier relating to nanotechnology.? He added ?ENTA aims to address these issues, and become the first port of call for the media, as representing the industry view on nanotechnology.?
ENTA exhibited at the flagship European conference ?Nanotechnology and the Health of the EU Citizen in 2020? in Edinburgh during the week beginning the 5th of September. ENTA participated in the press conference at this event and received much interest from the media and the conference delegates.
ENTA?s next steps will be to carry out market research and market surveys in order to gain and evaluate market perception. ENTA is already beginning to establish relationships with many relevant bodies across Europe, such as the UK MNT network, the European Commission and many multinational companies. It intends to issue regular media briefings, and press releases on items of international industrial and public importance.
ENTA?s flagship event will be in the Autumn, where it is sponsoring the conference at Europe?s biggest nanotrade fair, ?NanoSolutions?, to be held in Cologne on 8-10 November.

A guide to help you start homeschooling today.
Please sign up for our E-news and Info List above for a FREE monthly homeschooling newsletter. If you are considering homeschooling, we will send you a free DVD titled "Why Homeschool?" and resource information to help you get started.
Please take the time to review this entire website, read the articles, listen to our free audio broadcasts and view our free on-line video broadcasts. We also have other DVD's and CD's with discussions from experienced homeschooling families available for purchase; visit our Store by clicking here.
Step 1: Biblically research God's plan for training and educating children.
The Bible is replete with God's teaching as to how children should be educated. Take the time to research the Scriptures. The decision to homeschool must be one that is decided upon by the husband, with the wife's obedience. It is imperative to have a family that is in obedience to God's design for the family.
Step 2: Find a support group or mentor.
Visit our Group listing page and locate a mentor, CHM chapter or group near you. If one is not available, we will personally help you find a mentor or local Christian support group to help you. Our goal is to connect you with mentors that promote Biblical worldview home education and not secular government homeschool programs. E-mail us for more information.
Every state has a different set of requirements for home educators. Please consult with the Home School Legal Defense Association. They provide the most up-to-date information on laws. To obtain a copy of your state's homeschooling law from the Home School Legal Defense Association's website, visit www.hslda.org and click on State Laws. Or, write or call them to request a copy (HSLDA, P.O. Box 3000, Purcellville, VA 20134, 540-338-5600).
One of the blessings of providing your children with a Biblical home education is the freedom to learn according to yours and your child's style. Whether you choose to provide an education experience that is similar to traditional schooling methods in your home or you allow children to learn more freely, God will bless your endeavors when you seek to educate them with Him as the Foundation. A homeschool environment will allow God to show you and your children their God-given talents, and they will delight in their educational experience. Some families choose textbook style learning or learning through reading. Some years you may try teaching in one way and change the next. God has given every family a unique situation, so listen carefully to advice from other homeschoolers, but be prepared to create your own teaching style that will maximize your children's learning, and yours, too!
It is very important in today's culture to refrain from using public school or virtually all or at least most of the secular curriculum. Even the public schools simple readers covey a belief, attitude and information that is contrary to God's Word. While no curriculum is perfect, most Christian curriculum and books are written by Christians and from a Christian worldview so it is imperative to train and educate your children upon these precepts. God will bless your endeavors if you are training your children from textbooks that give glory to Him. God is pleased when His children are learning about Him and not the ways of the world. Curriculum can be purchased either at Christian bookstores, on-line, or through catalogs. Most states have annual homeschool conventions where you can browse vendors and get a hands-on look at the products they carry.
Homeschool Headquarters www.homeschoolheadquarters.com - Homeschool Headquarters are departments in various Christian books stores nationwide that have a selection of homeschool curriculum Visiting one of the stores is a wonderful way to look through the curriculum.

Now that I am turning 25, I am feeling slightly less invincible as I did in my teens. I would personally like to thank all the Instagram filters that got me where I am today. I've always admired stars that could age gracefully. In high school, my idols were elegant woman like Grace Kelly or Audrey Hepburn. These woman seemed timeless and most of all effortless. My philosophy on beauty is to take care of your skin care first and makeup second.
Eat clean- drop the processed and the sugar, but I will admit this is a tough one!
Wash your face- seems simple enough, but at night especially, just try to keep your face clean!
Get plenty of sleep- I say that, while I am staying up late to finish this post. Yikes!
Wear SPF 30(or more)- the sun is one of the most damaging. Protect yourself ladies!
If you need extra help, find something that works for you and your skin!


Florals are making a big comeback this spring. We're seeing it in everything from fashion (like floral jeggings) to fabrics. It's a great way to add life to any room without making any huge changes to your regular decor.
Curtains: There are tons of affordable shops that are currently offering floral curtains, from Ikea to HomeSense. Curtains are a quick change and can add big impact to a space. For a more muted look, try tone-on-tone florals (like greys and creams). For a brighter look, grab some floral curtains with a cheery print that incorporates 2-3 different colours.
Throw pillows: Using throw pillows is an extremely affordable and easy way to bring the floral trend into your home this season. By working with your current colour scheme, adding one or two different prints with throw pillows instantly brings your home from winter to spring. We like this option from Bouclair Home. You can even grab some cushion covers to reuse your current throw pillows.
Bedding: Your bedroom is an awesome place to change your textiles up. Instead of a full floral duvet cover (which can tend to be busy and make a room look smaller) try using a floral throw or blanket at the end of the bed. You can also toss some bright and flowery cushions on the bed, or even change out some wall photos with floral prints.
Rugs: With trendy area rugs becoming more and more available, it's an easy switch out at the start of the spring season. Instead of the neutral grey or taupe rug you may have, try bringing in an area rug with floral accents. If you're into seriously bright colours, we love this rug from Pottery Barn teen. If you prefer toned down colours, try another tone-on-tone option.
Real flowers: Nothing says "spring" like plants and flowers. Bring in orchids and flowering plants that will last for a few months. They create a very cheery windowsill or side table. If you're one of those no-plants people or you have pets who like to taste everything, try using a few small silk plants.
However you decide to brighten up your space this season, let us know by posting a photo on our Facebook page. You can also find tons of other awesome ideas from our designers on our Pinterest boards.

Remediation of pollution can be expensive and technically difficult. Many express and local air pollution control firms have found that encapsulating contaminated concrete is the most economical and resilient solution for existing contaminants. 100% sturdy epoxy can seal contaminants into the concrete with levels of 10 to 100 mils heavy. In effect, the encapsulation works as an insect stuck in amber. Solids, gasses, and liquids are all stuck inside a stable hard capsule. Impurities are thus in a position to be left set up, with no hazard to crews that might experienced to work near remove them.
100% epoxy does not have any odor, can go on as thick as needed, and comes in colors as well as clear. When making use of floor seals that may be 20 to 500 mils heavy as they repair and level imperfect floor floors, it is critical to consider the height of the covering as well as the length and width issues of normal roll-on applications. When drinking water is poured on cup, it protrudes above the top at the edges. Tugging a finger although water, one sees flattening at the entry and exit things because of its surface anxiety. When leveling flooring surfaces, these same effects of the epoxy's surface tension must be dealt with. In other words "self-levelling," which is imperfect even for liquids like water, will not produce a flat top layer of epoxy.
100% epoxy coatings do not shrink and can harden at any level it is left at after being catalyzed. But special types of procedures are needed to be able to assure a flat surface while filling unequal anomalies in the substrate. Experience has identified that utilizing a squeegee-like action with a very brief nap roller (3/16″) creates a pool of epoxy that may be pulled in your direction to drip into low locations while keeping the top flat. Care must be used to apply a straight coat at the surface, and too much moving can cause the top to attempt to contour along the floor's imperfections.
A good way to obtain 100% epoxy floor coatings is Durall Industrial Floor coverings of Minneapolis, MN. Durall provides personalized kits specially designed to add every item necessary for the specific task of the client. Durall delivers these kits directly to the job site and provides factory-direct support during the application process. Web tourists can buy free, job-specific insurance quotes on materials or countrywide turnkey installations by completing a straightforward questionnaire. This full-service notion allows one to enjoy the advantages of industrial strength flooring.

Surf Travel
by Laura Topolovich
There's more to Mexico than sombreros, enchiladas, and tequila. Some of the biggest surfable waves in the Americas can be found on the Pacific coast of mainland Mexico.
Despite being a popular choice among SoCal surfers, when it comes to surfing in Mexico, the third largest country in Latin America still boasts a huge untapped potential. There are classic point breaks, tubing beach breaks, strong offshore winds; you name it! And, the further south you go, the more deserted the beaches become.
Where & when to surf in Mexico
Photo credit: Bryce Bradford via Flickr
With 5,797 miles (9,330 km) of coastline, Mexico is a true paradise for water sports lovers. However, the best surf can be found on its Pacific coastline, which is 4,560 miles (7,338 km) long and dotted with firing point breaks and barreling beach breaks. There are plenty of beginner-friendly beaches, as well as some huge waves to be found here. Overall, Mexico is a great place to get barreled. A lot!
Windy Baja California, with its chilly water, is a swell magnet known for producing some of the best waves in Mexico. Unfortunately, there are no secret surf spots in northern Baja anymore, as San Diego day-trippers have been exploring the area for decades. But, if you go further south, crowds will no longer be an issue.
Surfing in Nayarit means uncrowded line-ups and hardcore breaks, as well as plenty of beginner-friendly and longboarding spots. Surfing at Puerto Escondido is on any surfer's bucket list and, while you should expect some heavy line-ups at some of the more popular breaks, you will also find beaches without a soul in sight.
The crystal-clear azure waters of Mexico are warm all year round in most regions except the northern ones. Water temperatures stay around 80° F (26 ° C) in Central and Southern Mexico, but they can drop below 70 ° F (21° C) during winter months in Baja California.
Mexico receives consistent swell all year round, with powerful waves being generated by the Southern Ocean. The peak surfing season lasts between May and October, during hurricane season, when the waves are big and consistent. However, you're bound to find good conditions in most regions throughout the year.
Are you ready to catch a wave in sunny Mexico? From Baja California Peninsula all the way to Oaxaca, tag along as we explore the best surf spots in Mexico.
Rosarito, Baja California Norte
Photo credit: expedia.com
Best for: all levels
Approximately 20 miles (32 km) south of the US border, the beaches in the Rosarito area are quite easy to get to and are, therefore, quite touristy and crowded. Nevertheless, the exciting breaks here are well-worth the hassle.
Baja Malibu is the most popular in the Rosarito area, home to a punchy beach break with glassy waves that promises the ride of your life. Rosarito Beach is a long and exposed beach break, and further south, Calafia is a right-hand point break that regularly produces head-high to double overhead-high waves.
Let us not forget the spine-tingling breaks at K-38, K-38.5, and K-39. K-38, better known as El Morro ("The Promontory"), is a legendary fast and hollow right that can get quite crowded. On busy days, you still have a chance to escape the crowds at k-39.
Best time to go: Summer and autumn, but there are good conditions all year round.
Ensenada, Baja California
Photo credit: surfer.com / Carey
Best for: intermediate to advanced surfers
The unofficial birthplace of Mexican surfing, the beaches at Ensenada were first explored by American surfers in the early 1960s. Only 70 miles (112 km) south of the US border, they continue to be a popular day-trip destination for SoCal surfers.
The best surf can be found at Playa San Miguel, a black-sand surf beach just north of town, where some incredibly long rides await. Playa Hermosa is great for those who are still learning to surf, as well as for those looking to take their skills up a notch. And, of course, we cannot leave Ensenada before stopping at Isla Todos Santos, home to one of the best big wave surfing spots in Mexico, which goes by the name of Killers.
Best time to go: Powerful swells hit the coast during winter months. Even though the water is slightly warmer than in the US, it is still pretty cold so make sure you pack a wetsuit.
Todos Santos & Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur
The stretch of coastline between Cabo San Lucas and Todos Santos is internationally renowned for its quality breaks. What's more, these are less crowded than the breaks in Northern Baja and the water is warmer.
Photo credit: Jill.S via Flickr
North of Todos Santos, La Pastora is a right-hand point break that often gets triple overhead, reserved for advanced surfers. Only 20 minutes south of Todos Santos, Playa Los Cerritos is a favorite among longboarders and surfers looking to camp on the beach and enjoy the warm weather both day and night. Playa Pescadero is an uncrowded A-frame reef break for intermediate to advanced surfers.
Near Cabo San Lucas, Monuments is a short and spinning left-hand point break for experienced surfers. But the one that always steals the spotlight is the world-famous Zippers near San Jose del Cabo, a fast right-hander that has been the venue of numerous surfing competitions. Other breaks worth mentioning are Shipwrecks, a punchy right-hander; and Nine Palms, a fun and fast wave for progressing beginners and longboarders.
Best time to go: Summer months offer the best conditions.
San Blas, Nayarit
Photo credit: netOrX
The legendary break at San Blas' Matanchén Bay is considered by the Guinness Book of Records to be the longest surfable wave in the world. Las Islitas offers rides that can cover 5,700ft (2,250m). Even better, this one is a mellow wave that is suitable for all levels.
Towards the end of Playa Las Islitas, Stoner's Point is a classic point break that is recommended for more advanced surfers.
Best time to go: Summer months.
Sayulita, Nayarit
Photo credit: puntasayulitamexico.com
Best for: beginners and intermediate surfers
North of Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita is one of the world's hippiest surf towns, all thanks to its great vibes and good wave reputation. A paradise for longboarders and beginners, there is a wide variety of mellow breaks to choose from, both lefts and rights, offering long rides and consistent swell.
Best time to go: Between December and April, but you'll find good conditions here all year round.
Home to some of the best all-rounder surf beaches in Mexico, Mazatlán is a magnet for south and southwest swells. The hollow and fast point breaks in the area offer some incredibly long rides of up to 1,600 ft (500 meters), with numerous barreling sections. There are plenty of A-frame breaks, most of them with sand bottoms, which cater to every level and taste.
Playa Los Pinos offers excellent surf for beginners, while Playa Olas Atlas, literally meaning "big wave," is recommended for more experienced riders.
The warm Pacific Ocean on Mazatlán's coast is a playground for a variety of water sports, including windsurfing, kitesurfing, scuba diving, and snorkeling.
Best time to go: Between April and October. Excellent conditions can be found all year-round, and the swell is mellower between November and April.
Cuyutlán, Colima
Photo credit: Mario Chavez via Flickr
If you love collecting sunsets, not things, then Cuyutlán should definitely be on your list. This is the home of La Ola Verde, meaning "green wave," a phenomenon that appears when the sun begins to set and is reflected in the sea. Add to that the stunning black sand beach, hollow waves, the picturesque oceanfront promenade dotted with cafes and restaurants, coconut farms, and a quaint seaside town, and you have your next surfing destination all figured out!
Best time to go: Between May and October, when big waves hit the shores.
Pascuales, Colima
Best for: experienced surfers
In the tiny state of Colima, Pascuales is not for the faint of heart. This monstrous rivermouth beach break has some of the best barreling tubes you've ever seen, just begging to be ridden. But this treacherous break has a reputation of breaking boards, so make sure you bring at least one spare.
Breaking both left and right, Pascuales is a lesser-known and relatively uncrowded beach break. Heavy and shallow, with spitting tubes, the waves here can reach 30 ft (9 meters) and more.
Best time to go: Winter is often considered the best time to surf at Boca de Pascuales, but huge waves can be found in summer too.
La Ticla, Michoacán
An off-the-beaten-path surfing destination in Mexico, La Ticla is a long left-hand point break found at the mouth of the Ostula River, in an ecologically protected area on the southwest Mexican coastline. The year-round consistent swell that hits the coast of the small town of La Ticla produces some punchy and hollow surf that is recommended for more experienced surfers.
Best time to go: Between November and April.
Troncones, Guerrero
Photo credit: smansmith via Flickr
A former fishing village turned surf hotspot, Troncones is the proud home of a number of consistent breaks. Described as one of the best destinations for beginner surfers in Mexico, Playa Troncones is an A-frame beach break 3 miles (5 km) south of Manzanillo. Also, here, Troncones Point is a left-hand point break that all levels of surfers can enjoy.
North of Troncones, The Ranch is widely considered one of the best surf spots in Mexico. This A-frame point break has been a well-kept secret for many years, and remains an uncrowded surf spot to this day, suitable for all levels. Nearby La Saladita is a long peeling left-hand point break, one of the longest in Mexico, that is a favorite among longboarders.
Best time to go: Summer months, between May and October. Good waves can be found all year round.
Acapulco, Guerrero
A hotspot when it comes to nightlife on the Pacific coast, Acapulco is often associated with hedonism and a lively party scene. But what most people do not know is that the calm water in Acapulco Bay offers ideal conditions for surfing and windsurfing.
The best waves can be found at Playa Revolcadero, an A-frame beach break for all levels. Experienced surfers looking for bigger waves will not be disappointed with Playa Pie de la Cuesta, while Bonfil is an A-frame beach break with some long waves that are just perfect for practicing.
Best time to go: April through September
Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca
Best for: advanced surfers
Surfing in Mexico would not be what it is today were it not for Zicatela, a legendary beach break that pinned the country on the surf map. The low-key fishing village of Puerto Escondido is home to a spectacular barrel that is widely considered the world's best beach break. Better known as the "Mexican Pipeline," Zicatela is often compared to Hawaii's pipelines.
Frequent offshore storms and hurricanes produce waves that can reach 30 ft (9 meters) or more during peak surfing season. Hollow and fast, this pounding beach break offers some unbelievably round barrels, and is known for snapping surfboards.
South of Puerto Escondido Bay, La Punta is a left-hand point break that is just perfect for beginners thanks to its easy take-off and slowly peeling walls. The waves here are a bit smaller than the ones at Zicatela, and therefore easier to ride. They are, however, still hollow and fast, but usually less crowded.
Best time to go: The official surf season lasts between March and December, which is longer than the average in other surf spots in Mexico. However, the best waves can be found between May and July.

In 2006, Barra de la Cruz hosted the ASP World Tour, thus cementing its place on the international surf map. The surf community, chilled-out vibe, and the world-class right-hand point break here are what make the spot so famous among barrel-chasing surfers. This is a deserted beach, with the nearest accommodation being a 30-minute drive away, in Huatulco. But that's a small price to pay for such a beauty.
Best time to go: You will find reliable swell between March and October, but the best waves fire up in June and July. Beginners can find friendlier conditions between November and February.

Once you've finished exploring the waves in Mexico, why not continue south to Guatemala and hit the surf in El Salvador too?

Лучистая змея () — вид змей, обитающий в Юго-Восточной Азии.

Внешний вид
Средней величины змеи, длина взрослых особей обычно составляет 60—90 см, но встречаются особи более метра. Хвост составляет около 1/10 части тела. Тело цилиндрической формы, голова плоская, приспособленная для рытья. Шейный перехват не выражен. Глаза маленькие, обращены кверху.

Верхняя половина тела лучистой змеи окрашена в темно-коричневый цвет, брюхо кремовое или светло-серое; иногда светлая окраска брюха распространяется на верхнегубные чешуи. Чешуя крупная, гладкая. Молодые особи похожи на взрослых, но имеют белый «воротник» на шее. Ювенильная окраска сохраняется до года.

Отличительной особенностью лучистой змеи, за которую она получила своё название, является радужный отлив, хорошо заметный даже при искусственном освещении.

Распространение
Обитает на юго-востоке Китая, Мьянме, Вьетнаме, Лаосе, Камбоджи, Таиланде, Западной и Восточной Малайзии, на островах Индонезии, Суматре, Борнео, Яве и на Филиппинах.

Образ жизни
Роющая змея, хорошо приспособленная к обитанию в слое рыхлой почвы или лесной подстилки. Обитает на возделанных полях, в лесах, садах, на рисовых чеках и в других влажных биотопах с рыхлыми почвами или достаточным слоем листового опада. Ведёт ночной образ жизни, в дневное время скрывается в норах, под камнями и корягами.

При встрече с человеком старается уйти. Схваченная, вырывается и может защищаться выбросом из клоаки зловонной жидкости (не нужно путать эту жидкость с испражнениями), иногда кусается.

Питание
Может употреблять в пищу достаточно широкий спектр кормовых объектов — амфибий, ящериц, змей, мелких грызунов. Добычу душат кольцами тела. Заглатывание пищи происходит очень быстро — таким образом змея минимизирует своё нахождение над поверхностью почвы, когда она особенно уязвима.

Размножение
О размножении лучистой змеи известно очень мало. Это яйцекладущие змеи, содержащиеся в неволе самки откладывали до 17 яиц. Период инкубации составляет, по некоторым данным, 7—8 недель. В неволе размножение наблюдается крайне редко. В России успешное размножение этих змей было осуществлено в Тульском экзотариуме.

Значение для человека
Неядовита. Нередко содержится в террариумах.

Der VEB Bärensiegel Berlin war ein Spirituosenhersteller in der DDR in der Rechtsform eines VEB in der Nachfolge zweier Likörfabriken. Sein Verwaltungssitz befand sich im Berliner Ortsteil Lichtenberg, er hatte Produktionsstandorte in der Rittergutstraße 82 (seit 1960: Josef-Orlopp-Straße) und am Glienicker Weg/Adlergestell in Berlin-Adlershof. Ab 1994 erfolgte die Privatisierung mit einer Aufsplittung des Unternehmens. Der Standort in Adlershof wurde zu dieser Zeit aufgegeben. Die verbliebenen Fabrikgebäude in Lichtenberg gelangten an einen Weingutbetreiber, der sie nach 2010 an die Brennerei Meininger abtrat. Meininger verlagerte den Firmensitz bald in den Berliner Ortsteil Friedrichshain, die Immobilie in Lichtenberg wurde aufgegeben. (Das im Bild zu sehende Gebäude steht im Frühjahr 2020 leer.)

Firmengeschichte

Von der Likörfabrik zur Branntweinmonopolverwaltung in Adlershof

In der ehemaligen Kaiser-Wilhelm-Straße 18c in Alt-Berlin betrieb der Unternehmer Johannes Kahlbaum Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts eine Destillation in dritter Generation. Zur Erweiterung seiner Produktion erwarb er um das Jahr 1884 ein Gelände im damaligen Berliner Vorort Adlershof, am Glienicker Weg 15/17 Ecke Adlergestell 327–331, wohin er einen Teil seiner Firma umsiedelte. Auf der Fläche ließ Kahlbaum ab 1903 eine neue große Fabrik errichten; im Jahr 1906 konnte er die Spritreinigungsanstalt und Likörfabrik dort eröffnen. Der Name der Firma änderte sich bald in Chemische Fabrik Adlershof-Berlin und sie fertigte chemische Gerätschaften und medizinische Reinigungsmittel. Geschäftsführer wurde nach dem frühen Tod von Johannes Kahlbaum († 1909) Isidor Stern.

Im Jahr 1922 kam ein Teil der Chemischen Fabrik organisatorisch zur Berliner Reichsmonopolverwaltung in Lichtenberg und wurde damit zur Filiale dieser Einrichtung, verblieb jedoch in Adlershof. Weitere Betriebsteile der Kahlbaumschen Fabrik, die ihren Schwerpunkt auf die chemischen Geräte und technische Alkoholika gelegt hatten, wurden organisatorisch ausgegliedert, verblieben aber ebenfalls auf dem Gelände. Aus ihnen entstand später der Betrieb Berlin-Chemie.

Eine Stammbelegschaft von CAF Kahlbaum zog in den 1920er Jahren nach Berlin-Charlottenburg, in die damalige Spandauer Chaussee um, wo die Fabrik als Likörfabrik und Weinbrennerei weiter arbeitete. Hier entstanden die bereits seit mehr als 100 Jahren bekannten und gut bei den Berlinern eingeführten Liköre wie der Reiter Kräuter Edellikör.

Die in der Adlershofer Fabrik befindliche Reichsmonopolverwaltung für Branntwein, Abteilung Adlershof bestand bis zum Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs weiter. Als Fabrikleiter ist im Jahr 1941 C. Kaminski angegeben.

Reichsmonopolverwaltung in Lichtenberg
Auf der Basis eines 1918 beschlossenen Branntweinmonopols im Deutschen Reich entstand die Reichs-Branntweinmonopolverwaltung mit Filialen in allen deutschen Landesteilen. Die Berliner Verwaltung nahm ihren Sitz im damaligen Verwaltungsbezirk Lichtenberg in der Rittergutstraße 40 (seit 1950: Josef-Orlopp-Straße) und firmierte als Verwertungsstelle der Reichsmonopolverwaltung für Branntwein. Diese Einrichtung arbeitete bis zum Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs, als Aufgabe wurden die Branntweinreinigung und Lagerung angegeben. Es gab den kaufmännischen und den technischen Betriebsleiter sowie drei Angestellte.

Entwicklung nach 1945
Nach Kriegsende nahmen beide Spritmonopolverwaltungen ihre Arbeit wieder auf und destillierten selbst auch wieder Trinkbranntwein. Der Betriebsteil in der Lichtenberger Rittergutstraße erhielt auf Beschluss des Magistrats von Groß-Berlin am 1. März 1949 die Bezeichnung VEB Großberliner Getränkeindustrie und damit eine geänderte Aufgabenstellung. Am 4. August 1950 wurde das Unternehmen in VEB Bärensiegel Berlin umbenannt. Dieses Datum gilt damit als offizielles Gründungsdatum.

Der Adlershofer Betrieb wurde um 1950 zum VEB Spiritus, das heißt, er konzentrierte sich auf die Spiritus-Rektifikation. Verkauf und Handel erfolgten in Lichtenberg. Er kam aber bald komplett zu Bärensiegel und nutzte keinen eigenen Namen mehr. Durch Fusion mit weiteren Brennereien wie der Spiritusfabrik Krakow am See (1946–1953) vergrößerte er seine Produktion weiter. Nun wurde das Unternehmen zu einem der größten Spirituosen-Anbieter der DDR.

Am 1. Januar 1970 wurde das Unternehmen Teil des VEB Getränkekombinat Berlin, zusammen mit den Brauereien Bürgerbräu, Schultheiß, Bärenquell, Engelhardt und der (Berliner) Weingroßkellerei. Als weiterer Betriebsteil (IV) kam das Branntwein-Vertriebslager Obstkellerei-Fruchtsaftgetränke Neuruppin hinzu. Allerdings wurden die in Adlershof beschäftigten Mitarbeiter auf weniger als 50 reduziert, die Verwaltung befand sich fast komplett in Lichtenberg. Später hieß die übergeordnete Einrichtung VEB Kombinat Spirituosen, Wein und Sekt.

Die Julius-Kahlbaumsche Likörfabrik mit dementsprechendem Ausschank in der Mauerstraße wurde 1974 ebenfalls in das Getränkekombinat integriert.

Aus dem Adlershofer Betriebsteil gingen vor allem Primasprit und Sprit allgemein zur Weiterverarbeitung hervor. Neben den Bärenquell-Filialen belieferten die Mitarbeiter auch Schilkin, zahlreiche medizinische Einrichtungen und pharmazeutische Fabriken. Schließlich findet sich sogar der Hinweis, dass die Russenmagazine in Berlin-Karlshorst und in Wünsdorf mit harten Alkoholika versorgt wurden.

Betriebliche Erweiterungen
Zum 1. Januar 1960 fusionierten auf Druck der Ost-Berliner Wirtschaftskommission die Betriebe CAF Kahlbaum aus Hohenschönhausen und Bärensiegel zum Berliner Großproduzenten VEB Kahlbaum-Bärensiegel Berlin.
Im Zeitraum 1964 bis 1971 verkaufte der damalige Eigentümer der Firma Pöschke, Likörfabrik und Weingroßhandlung, seine Immobilien und die Markenrechte an den VEB Bärensiegel.

Im Jahr 1972 erhielt der Bärensiegel-Stammbetrieb Zuwachs durch einige bis dahin im Privatbesitz befindliche "Schnapsfabriken", die auf politischen Druck zwangsverstaatlicht wurden. Dazu gehörten:
 die 1883 gegründete Likörfabrik und Weingroßhandlung Hermann Degener aus Neuruppin
sowie die
 Wigra – Wilhelm Graßmann KG, Spirituosenfabrik Frankfurt (Oder), die der Kaufmann und Destillateur Wilhelm Grassmann im April 1947 in vorhandenen Gebäuden im Bereich Ferdinandshof (Gubener Straße 9) gegründet hatte. Hier entstanden zu DDR-Zeiten unter anderem die alkoholhaltigen Erfrischungsgetränke Vipa und Virola. Aus dieser Fabrik wurde nun der Betriebsteil Frankfurter Spirituosenfabrik (auch kurz Betriebsteil VI) des VEB Bärensiegel Berlin.

Des Weiteren kam 1981 auch der VEB Schilkin aus Berlin-Kaulsdorf als Betriebsteil Kaulsdorf zu Bärensiegel.

1986–1990
Im Jahr 1986 finden sich im Ost-Berliner Telefon-Adressbuch folgende Betriebsteile des VEB Bärensiegel:
 Verwaltung Spirituosenabfüllung, 1030 Berlin, Josef-Orlopp-Straße 82,
 Betriebsteil (BT) Pankow, Spirituosenabfüllung; 1110 Berlin, Treskowstraße 60,
 Exportabteilung, 1099 Berlin (Malchow), Dorfstraße 9 (auf dem Gelände des ehemaligen Gutshofes der Stadt Berlin),
 Kornbrennerei, 1092 Berlin (Hohenschönhausen), Berliner Straße 14,An dieser Adresse hatte Anfang der 1940er Jahre die in der Landsberger Allee angesiedelte Industriegelände Berl.-Hohenschönhausen AG einen Betriebsteil, der ein Zulieferer der Löwenbrauerei war. In den angeschlossenen Gebäuden wohnten laut Adressbuch ein Diplom-Betriebs-Ingenieur (Dr. H. Wellhörner) sowie zwei Braumeister.
 Spiritus-Rektifikation, 1199 Berlin (Adlershof), Adlergestell 327,
 Alte Julius Kahlbaumstube, 1080 Berlin (Mitte), Mauerstraße 85.

Im Jahr 1989 produzierte der VEB Bärensiegel mit etwa 400 Mitarbeitern in allen seinen Betriebsteilen 26 Millionen Flaschen Spirituosen.

Bärensiegel ab 1990

Bärensiegel gesamt
Nach der politischen Wende wurde der Betrieb in eine GmbH umgewandelt und trat danach (in leicht geänderter Schreibweise) als Berliner BärenSiegel GmbH am Markt auf. Um das Jahr 1992 erfolgte die Einstellung der Erzeugung der Berliner Spirituosen in allen Bärensiegel-Einrichtungen, weil die nötigen Umsätze nicht mehr erreicht werden konnten.

Die vorherigen Betriebsteile außerhalb Berlins wurden 1994 aufgegeben und entweder reprivatisiert oder einer anderen Nutzung zugeführt.

Standort Adlershof
Der Spritherstellung in Adlershof wurde bereits am 1. Oktober 1990 vollständig aufgegeben. Dieser Maßnahme war eine Qualitätsprüfung der Adlershofer Sprit-Großproduktion durch Mitarbeiter der Bundesmonopolverwaltung zwecks einer eventuellen Übernahme vorausgegangen. Das Urteil lautete "unbrauchbar". Deshalb mussten alle Apparaturen abgeschaltet werden und die Mitarbeiter wurden entlassen.
Einige engagierte ehemalige Bärensiegler unternahmen noch im gleichen Jahr den Versuch, hier in Adlershof unter Einbeziehung einer in der DDR-Zeit begonnenen Baumaßnahme für ein Großtanklager direkt am Teltowkanal, als Alkohol Handelskontor Ost GmbH zu überleben. Sie waren außerdem auf der Suche nach Investoren für ihre Idee und wurden 1992 schließlich mit dem Unternehmen Berkel Pfälzische Spritfabrik fündig. Die Treuhandanstalt ließ die angefangenen Bauten am Teltowkanal fertig stellen und vermietet sie seitdem an die genannte Spritfabrik: der eigene Name Handelskontor Ost konnte dagegen nicht etabliert werden. Die Filiale in Berlin heißt nun Berkel AHK Alkoholhandel GmbH & Co. KG.

Standort Lichtenberg
In den Jahren 1991/1992 enthält das Berliner Telefonbuch die nunmehr privatisierte Firma Bärensiegel GmbH, Zentrale in der Josef-Orlopp-Straße. Der Vertrieb wurde auf das übliche Vertretersystem umgestellt.

Die neue Firmenleitung hatte Probleme bezüglich der Nutzfläche in der Josef-Orlopp-Straße, eine kleine Fremdfläche ragte auf das Bärensiegel-Areal. Um zu einem Ergebnis zu kommen, drohte die Chefetage von Bärensiegel der Treuhandanstalt damit, die gesamte Produktion in das Land Brandenburg zu verlegen. Es muss dann so ausgegangen sein, dass eine Flächenbereinigung stattfinden konnte. Denn die Treuhandanstalt verkaufte 1994 die GmbH an das Weinunternehmen Franz Wilhelm Langguth Erben, deren Eigentümer eine Aufteilung der Produktionsbereiche in BärenSiegel GmbH, Moritz Thienelt GmbH und Eskalony & Sons GmbH vornahmen.

Die vorhandenen Gebäude in Lichtenberg wurden als Produktionsstandorte nun ebenfalls aufgegeben. Aber in der Josef-Orlopp-Straße ließ der neue Eigentümer neben dem ursprünglichen Gebäude auf der hinzugekauften Fläche des früheren Betriebes VEB Pflanzen- und Ölmühle eine Metall-Leichtbauhalle setzen, in der die Spirituosen weiterhin hergestellt wurden.

Im Jahr 1994 erzielten 92 Mitarbeiter einen Umsatz von 100 Millionen Mark (kaufkraftbereinigt in heutiger Währung: rund  Millionen Euro). Die neue Berliner BärenSiegel GmbH löste nach der Privatisierung den Investitionsstau auf und modernisierte die Produktion.

Mittlerweile (Stand im Jahr 2020) hat BärenSiegel die Spirituosenproduktion offensichtlich aufgegeben: Das Produktionsgebäude in Berlin-Lichtenberg ist verwaist, die alte Website tot, und laut der neuen Website liegt der Firmensitz der Berliner BärenSiegel GmbH in Berlin-Friedrichshain, Petersburger Straße 30. Seit März 2020 ist die Firma Teil von Nordbrand Nordhausen, wo schon seit 2019 der Kräuterlikör Wurzelpeter produziert wird.
Seit 2021 produziert die Firma wieder am Standort Berlin in einer kleinen Firma Am Flutgraben 2 in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Hier werden unter anderem wieder der Wurzelpeter, der Humboldt Gin und ein Pfefferminzlikör hergestellt.

Baugeschichte

1903–1906: Entstehung eines neuen Fabrikkomplexes
Der Architekt Max Jacob hatte für Johannes Kahlbaum einen großzügig bemessenen Hallenkomplex auf der Baufläche Glienicker Weg Ecke Adlergestell entworfen. Die Pläne wurden vom Bauunternehmen Albert Pförtner aus Adlershof ausgeführt.
Auffälligstes Merkmal des Bauensembles im historisierenden Baustil, dessen Hallen mit roten Klinkern verblendet wurden, war das direkt an der Straßenkreuzung stehende viergeschossige Fabrikgebäude. Es hatte einen länglichen rechteckigen Grundriss, die straßenseitigen Fassaden waren durch Wandvorlagen vertikal gegliedert und es wies auf der westlichen Schmalseite zwei quadratische Treppentürme auf. Diese schufen einen eher sakralen Eindruck des Bauwerks, zumal sie auch allseitig mit Staffelgiebeln geschmückt waren und ein Zeltdach trugen. In der Bevölkerung hieß das auffällige Bauwerk daher bald die "Schnapskirche von Adlershof".

1907–1945
Über größere Baumaßnahmen in diesen rund 40 Jahren oder über Bauwerkschäden infolge des Zweiten Weltkriegs ist nichts bekannt.

In den überlieferten Dokumenten aus dem Zeitraum 1920–1940 findet sich der Vertrag der CAF Kahlbaum Chemische Fabrik, Kahlbaum AG (Spirituosen) und der Reichsmonopolverwaltung Branntwein, der die ständige Nutzung der Spritfabrik in der Rittergutstraße in Berlin-Lichtenberg regelte.

1945–1989
Schrittweise wurden einige technische Anlagen im Lauf der Jahre erneuert, auch Neubauten und Modernisierungen gab es. Beispielsweise ließ Bärensiegel 1967–1988 sein Werk I in Adlershof rekonstruieren, wobei auch eine neue Transformatorenstation auf der Parzelle Adlergestell 327 hinzukam (1970). Dem folgten stetige kleinere und größere Baumaßnahmen zwischen 1970 und 1989 wie eine Rekonstruktion aller Fabrikteile in Adlershof (1983–1983), Modernisierungen im VEB Schilkin in Berlin-Kaulsdorf (1970–1987), der von Bärensiegel übernommen worden war, und auch Baumaßnahmen in der Kornbrennerei in Hohenschönhausen, die bei der Fusion zwischen Bärensiegel und VEB Kahlbaum an Bärensiegel gefallen war. Im Jahr 1974 wurde das Werk II am Adlergestell 327 komplett rekonstruiert.

Mitte der 1970er Jahre wurde das ursprüngliche Kohleheizkraftwerk durch ein transportables Ölheizwerk ersetzt. Auf dem ehemaligen Kohlelagerplatz entstand ein Tanklager. Auf dem gemeinsamen Gelände errichtete VEB Berlin-Chemie eine neue Wärmeanlage, die von Bärensiegel ab 1980 mitgenutzt werden konnte.

Aus dem Jahr 1985 liegt ein Dokument vor, das die Abfallnutzung zur Einsparung fossiler Brennstoffe ausweist. Dazu wurden zur Querung des Glienicker Wegs vier oberirdische Rohrleitungen verlegt.

Im Zusammenhang mit entsprechenden Rekonstruktionsmaßnahmen (1975 bis 1979) entstand an Stelle des historischen Apparatehauses ein Neubau, die Spritreinigungsanlage wurde ebenfalls komplett erneuert. Ziel aller Maßnahmen war eine Erhöhung der Jahresproduktion auf 154.000 hl Primasprit, 38.000 hl Sekundärsprit und technischer Alkohol sowie 32.000 hl Alkohol absolut/medizinisch-technisch. Bis 1980 standen dem Getränkekombinat für alle diese Arbeiten rund 12,3 Millionen DDR-Mark zur Verfügung.

In einem Lagergebäude befanden sich riesige Tanks mit einem Fassungsvermögen von bis zu 950.000 Liter, in denen der Sprit vor seiner Auslieferung aufbewahrt wurde. Zuerst erfolgte der Transport per Eisenbahn, später setzte das Unternehmen Tank-Lastwagen ein.

Der Baukomplex des VEB Bärensiegel in Adlershof stand seit den 1980er Jahren unter Denkmalschutz. In der DDR-Zeit kamen noch weitere Wirtschaftsgebäude auf dem Gelände hinzu, unter anderem eine große Lagerhalle.

1990–2017
Die Produktionsanlagen wurden ab 1993 ausgebaut und verschrottet. Die Gebäude waren gegen Ende 1994 leergezogen, die Lagerhalle bald abgerissen. Nun plante eine Wohnungsbaugesellschaft den Totalabriss aller Bauten und wollte an dieser Stelle einen Wohnkomplex errichten. Diese Pläne wurden jedoch 1995 wieder aufgegeben. Die Berliner Immobiliengesellschaft als Nachfolger der Treuhandanstalt suchte nun deutschlandweit neue Kaufinteressenten. Wegen des langen Leerstands waren etliche Teile des Baukomplexes bereits einsturzgefährdet, sie mussten mit starken Stahlträgern abgestützt werden.

Im Jahr 1999 erwarb die Stuttgarter Immobiliengruppe Widerker das gesamte Areal. Sie verhandelte mit den Vertretern des Senats über eine Baugenehmigung bei gleichzeitiger Sanierung des denkmalgeschützten Hauptgebäudes. Im Jahr 2017 wurde die Genehmigung erteilt und nun konnte eine weitgehende Entkernung stattfinden.

Seit 2018: Im restaurierten Kerngebäude eröffnet eine Möbel-Filiale
Die äußere Gebäudehülle der markanten zweitürmigen Fabrikhalle wurde statisch gesichert und saniert. Das Innere wurde zu Verkaufszwecken neu gegliedert und bietet nun eine Nutzfläche von 6800 Quadratmeter. Für die Bau- und Sanierungsarbeiten hat der Eigentümer insgesamt 15 Millionen Euro investiert.
Hier zog das Möbelunternehmen Roller ein, eine Tochter der Gesellschaft Tessner Holding, das am 10. Dezember 2018 damit seinen dritten Standort in Berlin eröffnete. Arbeitsplätze für 35 Verkäufer entstanden so.

Republicans use the Mueller report to target California Rep. Adam Schiff
Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee demanded that Chairman Adam Schiff step down over his allegations that President Trump's campaign colluded with Russians in the 2016 election. Schiff responded with a blistering attack, accusing Republ
By Jennifer HaberkornStaff Writer
Reporting from Washington —
Feeling vindicated by the release of a summary of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III's report, Republicans on Capitol Hill have launched an aggressive campaign to oust — or at least embarrass — House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, one of the Democrats' leading voices on the Russia probe.
The mounting feud spilled out Thursday in an intelligence hearing intended to discuss Russian President Vladimir Putin's playbook of using money and intelligence to undermine other countries, including the U.S.
Instead, the hearing was overshadowed by lawmakers' heated back-and-forth, with Republican committee members taking the unusual step of calling for their chairman to resign, and the Burbank Democrat sharply swatting back their complaints.
"Your willingness to continue to promote a demonstrably false narrative is alarming," said Rep. Mike Conaway (R-Texas). "We have no faith in your ability to discharge your duty."
Schiff has continued to assert that President Trump's campaign colluded with the Russians in the 2016 election, a claim that Republicans say Mueller has discredited.
Conaway and the other eight Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee submitted a letter calling for Schiff's resignation.
But the effort is largely partisan theater since House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) appoints the Intelligence Committee chair, and she has strongly backed Schiff.
Democrats meanwhile continued their push for the release of the full Mueller report, which so far has only been described in a four-page summary by Atty. Gen. William Barr.
In a phone call Wednesday evening, Barr would not commit to House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) to voluntarily turning over a full, unredacted copy of the report to Congress, according to Democratic House aides who spoke on the condition that they not be identified. The House is prepared to subpoena the report if necessary.
At the intelligence hearing, Schiff angrily accused Republicans of failing to fulfill their oversight responsibilities. He described the attacks as an effort to divert attention from the president's actions, which House Democrats are continuing to investigate.
Schiff said he accepted Mueller's decision not to file any indictment for collusion but insisted that it didn't change his position that Trump's campaign was open to Russian assistance. Schiff repeatedly cited the difference between what he viewed as acts of improper coordination and the higher bar Mueller had to clear for a criminal case.
He went through a litany of evidence that he said suggested collusion, including Trump's calls for Russians to hack Democrats' emails; sharing American voter profile data with Russians; the Trump Tower meeting with Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner and Russian officials; and the campaign's decision not to tell the FBI that foreigners had offered damaging information about Hillary Clinton.
"You might think that's OK," Schiff said to his Republican colleagues. "I don't. … I think it's immoral. I think it's unethical. I think it's unpatriotic. And yes, I think it's corrupt and evidence of collusion."
Trump has also targeted Schiff, accusing the lawmaker — without providing evidence — of breaking the law.
"Congressman Adam Schiff, who spent two years knowingly and unlawfully lying and leaking, should be forced to resign from Congress!" Trump tweeted shortly before the hearing began.
Rep. Michael Turner (R-Ohio) accused Schiff of operating the panel in a way that posed a "danger to our national security" and acting in "true McCarthy fashion," a reference to the questionable tactics of former Sen. Joseph McCarthy in his anti-Communist campaign.
Democrats have rallied around Schiff. Pelosi called the comments by Republicans "shameful, sad, irresponsible."
"What is the president afraid of? Is he [so] afraid of the truth that he would go after a respected chairman of a committee?" Pelosi said. "I think they are just scaredy cats. They just don't know what to do so they have to make an attack."
House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (D-Md.) also defended Schiff, saying earlier this week that he expected him to be "chairing that committee for a long time to come."
Schiff was also recently named to a key fundraising chairmanship post at the Democratic committee tasked with preserving the party's majority in the House.
The House Intelligence Committee had traditionally conducted itself with relative bipartisanship, but that changed in recent years as the Russia investigation progressed.
The former Republican chairman, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Tulare), was temporarily forced to step aside from leading the Russia investigation on the panel two years ago, shortly before the House Committee on Ethics said he was under investigation because of reports that he might have made unauthorized disclosures of classified information. He denied the charges.
