Australian Mining Giant Looks To Canada For Green Hydrogen Projects
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on the Globe And Mail.
These are the first two paragraphs.
An Australian mining giant has signed agreements with three Canadian Indigenous nations to determine the viability of building green hydrogen projects as the company attempts to reinvent itself as a supplier of clean renewable energy.
Fortescue Future Industries (FFI) sees Canada as potentially one of the largest sources of renewable energy in the world and is hoping to develop multiple large-scale green energy projects here.
The article indicates quite a lot about the future direction of FFI.
I certainly think the company is going the right way.

Could Universal Hydrogen's Concept Create A Hydrogen-Powered Single-Aisle Airliner?
Universal Hydrogen are making some of what I would consider the right moves.
Hydrogen Supply
Universal Hydrogen have signed a supply contract with Fortescue Future Industries for the supply of green hydrogen.
The deal is described in this press release on the FFI web site, which is entitled FFI And Universal Hydrogen Join Forces To Decarbonise Aviation.
Collaboration With Airbus
There is an article on BusinessWire, which is entitled Universal Hydrogen Announces New Engineering Development Center Located In Toulouse, France, The Heart of European Aviation.
Toulouse is the home of Airbus.
The Capsule Concept
The capsule concept could be universal.
These are widths of various planes and trains.
De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400 – 2.52 metres – Internal
Airbus ATR 72 – 2.57 metres- Internal
Airbus A320neo – 3.7 metres – Internal
Boeing 737 – 3.53 metres – Internal
Class 800 train – 2.7 metres – External
Class 66 locomotive – 2.65 metres – External
I suspect that if the design is correct, then one size of capsule can be made to fit a variety of applications.
Application To Regional Aviation
I discussed this in Flybe Appears To Be On The Way Back.
I believe that De Havilland Canada Dash 8s and Airbus ATR 72s could be converted to hydrogen.
Surely, the capsules would be too big for road transport in the UK and many other countries.
But they would probably be ideal to deliver hydrogen to bus and truck depots and filling stations for hydrogen vehicles. They would just be plugged in and then could start dispensing the fuel.
Decarbonation Of Diesel Locomotives
The cross-section of a diesel locomotive even in the UK, is larger than that of a regional airliner.
Most of the space in the body of a diesel locomotive is taken up by a large diesel engine.
Fuel ells or a small gas turbine could be small compared to the diesel engine.
Most existing diesel locomotives have electric transmissions.
I believe that many diesel-electric locomotives could be converted to hydrogen power and some could use Universal Hydrogen's capsules.
Zero-Carbon Backup Generators
Many pieces of important infrastructure, like data centres, hospitals and large railway stations have backup generators.
Universal Hydrogen's capsules could provide hydrogen for zero-carbon backup generators.
Universal Hydrogen's Ideas For Single-Aisle Airliners
In the Product page on the Universal Hydrogen web site, there is a section, which is entitled Single Aisle / Narrowbody, where this is the first two sentences.
The majority of aviation emissions are produced by the single aisle (also known as narrowbody) fleet, dominated by the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 families of aircraft. Both Boeing and Airbus are likely to develop a replacement for these venerable models for entry into service in the mid 2030s.
Alongside the text is this graphic, which compares various airliners.
Universal Hydrogen are proposing that Airbus stretch the A321, so that hydrogen capsules can be fitted in the rear of the fuselage, so that the aircraft has similar proportions to the Boeing 757.
Read the full text on the Product page of the Universal Hydrogen web site.
I can see that if they could prove the concept with the Regional Airliner, they could develop the two concepts shown in the graphic.
This is a simple, but very exciting project.

Flybe Appears To Be On The Way Back
I was alerted to the relaunch of the Flybe airline being a serious proposition by this article on the Birmingham Mail, which is entitled Watch As First Of 32 New Flybe Planes Lands At Birmingham Airport.
The first of Flybe's more eco-friendly planes has landed in Birmingham ready for the launch of the airline's new city HQ.
Part of a planned 32-aircraft fleet, the De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400 turboprop touched down on the runway at Birmingham Airport on Friday.
The new Flybe will be based at Birmingham Airport and will have a fleet consisting of thirty-two De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400 aircraft.
The De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400
Note these facts about the aircraft.
According to Wikipedia, 645 aircraft have been ordered, with 587 having been delivered.
Different variants can handle between 40 and 80 passengers.
All aircraft delivered since 1996 are dubbed Q-Series and have active noise and vibration suppression, which is designed to improve the cabin ambience.
A Dash 8-400 is also called a Q400.
But the most interesting development of the Dash 8 aircraft, is that developments are underway, so that the aircraft will be able to be powered by hydrogen.
Universal Hydrogen And A Hydrogen-Powered Q400
This article on Future Flight is entitled Universal Assembles Hydrogen Aircraft Conversion Team In Washington State.
This is the first two paragraphs.
Universal Hydrogen and its hydrogen fuel cell partner Plug Power are joining forces with electric motor specialists MagniX and AeroTec to set up a Hydrogen Aviation Test and Service Center at Grant County International Airport in Moses Lake, Washington. The partners will use the new facility to convert a Dash 8 regional airliner to hydrogen propulsion in time to start commercial operations in 2025. Flight testing is due to begin in 2022.
The new hydrogen powertrain will consist of an electric propulsion unit (EPU) developed by MagniX and fuel cells provided by Plug Power, which has extensive experience converting trucks to hydrogen. Seattle-based AeroTec will take the lead on converting the Dash 8s to hydrogen propulsion, conducting flight tests, and arranging for certification under FAA supplemental type certificates. The system installation work will be conducted at the Moses Lake facility.
This paragraph gives details of the design.
The hydrogen-powered Dash 8 aircraft, which carry between 41 and 60 passengers, will be able to operate on routes of up to around 625 miles. Universal Hydrogen's plan calls for the fuel to be delivered directly to aircraft in capsules that are installed in a compartment at the rear of the fuselage.
These are my thoughts on the design.
Power Required
Wikipedia says this about the engines of the Dash 8-400 (Q400).
The Series 400 uses Pratt & Whitney Canada PW150A engines rated at 4,850 shp (3,620 kW).
This means that the aircraft will need fuel cells capable of delivering over 7 MW.
This data sheet on the Plug Power web site, says that the company has fuel cells up to 125 KW, which weigh 350 Kg and need a cooling module, that weighs a further 103 Kg. Scaling up shows the power unit could weigh around 25.4 tonnes.
As the maximum take-off weight of a Q400 is around 30.5 tonnes, this wouldn't leave much weight for the airframe, the two electric motors and propellers, the hydrogen and the passengers and their luggage.
It would appear that Plug Power must be using some form of lighter-weight fuel cell.
Or could they be using an appropriately-sized gas turbine generator from Pratt & Whitney Canada?
It should be noted that a Pratt & Whitney Canada PW150A engine, weighs under a tonne and generates over 3.5 MW.
Obviously, they wouldn't be developing the plane, if they hadn't figured out how to generate enough electricity to get it off the ground.
The Hydrogen Capsules
The Product page on the Universal Hydrogen web site is revealing.
This paragraph from the Product page describes how they would convert Regional Aircraft to Hydrogen.
Our first product is a conversion kit for existing regional aircraft, starting with the ATR72 and the De Havilland Canada Dash-8, to fly on hydrogen. This consists of a fuel cell electric powertrain that replaces the existing turboprop engines. It also accommodates, in the rear of the fuselage, our proprietary, lightweight, modular hydrogen capsules that are transported from green hydrogen production sites to the airport and loaded directly into the aircraft using the existing intermodal freight network and cargo handling equipment. By providing both an aircraft conversion solution for the existing fleet and a fuel services offering directly to regional airlines, we will be in passenger service with zero emissions by 2025 and in cargo service shortly thereafter.
The cutaway on the Product page of a De Havilland Canada Dash-8, which has three capsules in the rear fuselage.
The cutaway shows forty seats in the aircraft.
If you scroll the pictures, you'll see the design of the capsule.
The product can be used to convert two regional airliners both of which are in production.
Airports will need no new infrastructure to handle the hydrogen.
Universal Hydrogen has also signed a deal with Fortescue Future Industries to supply green hydrogen to fill the capsules.
Are A First Flight In 2022 And An in-Service Date Of 2025 Over Ambitious?
The article in Future Flight says this.
AeroTec will take the lead on converting the Dash 8s to hydrogen propulsion, conducting flight tests, and arranging for certification under FAA supplemental type certificates.
FAA Supplemental Type Certificates are outlined on this page on the FAA web site, where this introductory paragraph is given.
A supplemental type certificate (STC) is a type certificate (TC) issued when an applicant has received FAA approval to modify an aeronautical product from its original design. The STC, which incorporates by reference the related TC, approves not only the modification but also how that modification affects the original design.
They are a much-used and well-proven method to update aircraft for new purposes and new power units.
I suspect that going this route will enable Q400 and ATR 72 aircraft will be flying on hydrogen by 2025.
How Far Will A Range Of 625 Miles Take The Plane From Birmingham?
I have used the Air Miles Calculator to calculate distances in miles from Birmingham.
Amsterdam Schiphol – 276
Barcelona – 791
Belfast City 225
Berlin Schönefeld – 644
Biarritz – 621
Bilbao – 635
Bordeaux – 529
Cologne – 397
Copenhagen – 624
Cork – 290
Dublin – 200
Dusseldorf – 373
Edinburgh – 251
Frankfurt – 452
Geneva – 556
Glasgow – 260
Hamburg – 495
Inverness – 364
Jersey – 225
Kirkwall – 474
Lerwick – 536
Lyon – 558
Munich – 660
Newcastle – 179
Newquay – 198
Nice – 735
Oslo – 726
Paris-Charles de Gaulle – 303
Paris-Orly – 315
Rotterdam – 265
Strasbourg – 494
It might be possible to serve some routes without refuelling at the other end.
Some routes could be paired for efficiency and still be well below 600 miles.
The large intercontinental airports of Amsterdam Schiphol, Frankfurt and Paris-Charles de Gaulle should be reached easily.
Amsterdam Schiphol Airport has a well-connected railway station.
Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport has a TGV station.
Frankfurt Airport has a long distance railway station on the Cologne-Frankfurt high speed line.
If you're flying to the South of France or Switzerland, it looks like flying from London City Airport is about a hundred miles shorter.
It would appear that the range of 625 miles could be very useful, especially if you use a long distance train at both ends of the flight.
I can certainly understand why Flybe has chosen Birmingham as its main base.
Will Flybe Convert Their Aircraft To Hydrogen?
This is obviously up to the company, but if they don't, someone else will and Flybe will lose their regional market in the UK.
I think those behind the new Flybe could be looking to create the UK's first zero-carbon airline.

BP Plans To Turn Teesside Into First Green Hydrogen Hub
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article in The Times.
This is the first paragraph.
BP plans to build Britain's biggest "green hydrogen" facility on Teesside to produce the clean fuel for use in new hydrogen-powered lorries and other transport.
The plans appear to be ambitious starting with a £100 million investment to build a 60 MW electrolyser by 2025, which would rise to as much as 500 MW by 2030.
The electrolyser will be paired with an upwards of a billion pound one gigawatt facility called H2Teesside, that will produce blue hydrogen.
I think there could be more to this than meets the eye.
Using The Carbon Dioxide Rather than Storing It!
I followed the carbon dioxide pipe from the CF fertiliser plant on Teesside using Google maps after seeing a film about it on the BBC. It goes to the Quorn factory and a massive greenhouse. I do wonder, if BP is talking to other companies, who also have a need for large quantities of good quality carbon dioxide.
One could be an Australian company, called Mineral Carbonation International, who have developed a process to convert carbon dioxide into building products like blocks and plasterboard. MCI won a prize at COP26, so could BP be looking at integrating one of these plants into their complex on Teesside?
The Electrolysers
Will BP be purchasing their electrolysers for green hydrogen from ITM Power in Sheffield?
This press release from ITM Power is entitled 12MW Electrolyser Sale.
The customer is not named, but could this be a starter kit for BP?
Alstom's Hydrogen Aventras
In Alstom And Eversholt Rail Sign An Agreement For The UK's First Ever Brand-New Hydrogen Train Fleet, I came to this conclusion.
This modern hydrogen train from Alstom is what is needed.
I also felt there could be three similar trains; electric, battery-electric and hydrogen, which would help operators hedge their bets on what type of traction to use.
Teesside must be one of the more likelier places where the Hydrogen Aventras will be carrying passengers.
I wrote about this possibility in Alstom Hydrogen Aventras And Teesside.
A deal between BP and Alstom would surely be in the interest of both companies.
Alstom would get a local hydrogen supply.
BP would get a first sale.
BP would get excellent publicity and a local demonstration of the possibilities of hydrogen.
It might even be possible to supply the hydrogen by pipeline.

KEPSA Signs Large-Scale Green Energy Projects MoU In Kenya
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on ESI Africa.
The Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with green energy company Fortescue Future Industries (FFI) to help facilitate its members participation in new large scale green energy projects in Kenya.
FFI are planning a possible green hydrogen and green ammonia facility in the country, that will use renewable energy.
Andrew Forrest is building up the air miles again.

Fortescue Unveils Green Investment Framework
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Mining Weekly.
Iron-ore major Fortescue Metals this week launched its Sustainability Financing Framework, enabling the future issuance of green and social debt instruments that will support investments in eligible green and social projects.
I have to admit, that I thought something like this might happen, after seeing all the Fortescue Future Industries publicity on a bus, which I wrote about in Green Hydrogen Can Save Us. But Waiting For It Won't.
I did say this in that post.
Andrew Forrest is intending to get his message across to the City.
But I didn't take any action.
I can see other companies and investment trusts following Andrew Forrest's lead.

Fortescue Future Industries Acquires Xergy Assets To Develop Hydrogen Tech Company
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Stockhead.
Andrew Forrest's Fortescue Future Industries (FFI) has made yet another bold move in the 'green-energy' space with the acquisition of Xergy Inc and Xergy One Ltd's commercial assets to form a new, wholly owned subsidiary called FFI Ionix Inc.
Poised to operate in the United States, FFI Ionix will function as a technology development company focused on the global commercialisation of hydrogen technologies such as ion exchange membranes for water electrolysis, electrochemical compression, water transmission and fuel cells.
It certainly appears that Andrew Forrest is building a company to handle all aspects of the production and use of green hydrogen.
He has signed deals with Argentina, JCB and Jordan.
He has been at COP26.
He is advertising on London's taxis and at least one bus!
He has been interviewed by The Times.
I await Mr. Forrest's next green hydrogen deal with interest.

Blue Hydrogen Is Not Clean Energy, Says Mining Tycoon
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on The Times.
Producing "blue hydrogen" from natural gas is not a clean energy source and is being wrongly promoted as one by the oil and gas industry, a billionaire mining mogul has claimed.
The mining mogul is Andrew Forrest, who is the second richest person in Australia.
I feel he is only partly right, as there are processes coming through that use a catalyst to split the hydrogen from the carbon.
But like the taxi in the picture at the top of the article with Mr. Forrest, his words are all good publicity.
Incidentally, I do believe that in a few years, we'll have the technology to use so much carbon dioxide efficiently, that we may see gas-fired power stations used to create both energy and carbon dioxide.

Andrew Forrest's Fortescue Future Industries Inks Deal With Kingdom of Jordan For Green Hydrogen Study
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on The West Australian.
I can't read the contents without subscribing, but I assume the title says it all.
However, I have a few thoughts.
This Google Map shows the Kingdom of Jordan.
Jordan is outlined in red.
The map suggests how hydrogen could be produced.
I would assume that there is plenty of sun in Jordan and there appears to be plenty of space for solar panels.
What is the potential for wind energy in the desert?
It would appear to me, that there are two routes to export the hydrogen. By pipeline across Israel to the Mediterranean Sea or by tanker from a port on the ed Sea, which just creeps onto the map in the South-West corner.
Perhaps, a giant electrolyser and export terminal could be built near Aqaba, which is Jordan's only seaport.
What I like about this plan, is that to the North-East and South-East of Jordan, lie the deserts of Iraq and Saudi Arabia. Could these in future be carpeted with solar panels, where the electricity is fed to Aqaba to create more green hydrogen?
Andrew Forrest is a busy man and seems to be organising a one man project to provide the world with green hydrogen.
I wrote about his deal with Argentina in Australia's FFI Plans $8.4 Billion Green Hydrogen Project In Argentina.
I wrote about his deal with JCB in JCB Signs Green Hydrogen Deal Worth Billions.
He is the second richest Australian according to Wikipedia.
I wouldn't be surprised to see some more hydrogen deals at COP26, where Andrew Forrest is involved.

Phew! I was worried that another one of my favourite blogs had mysteriously dissapeared.
I wish you had posted this at the blog that was still working!
But I am indeed part of the "glad you are OK" chorus.
I've had five "incidents" with Network Solutions (over a period of years, and involving several commercial domains for which I was then responsible). They are incompetent and arrogant when trying to straighten out their records.
Needless to say, I don't use them any more. For my current purposes I much prefer easyDNS, which, while not the cheapest, has provided excellent service for me for the last ten years.
I don't think Network Solutions is the absolute worst out there, but they need to fix their accounting problems, clean up their dispute procedures, and spend a little on attitude adjustment on their customer service people (which are clearly insufficient in number to clean up after their accounting errors).


Great business making a very comfortable income, but the owner is very unwell and so it is offered for sale. Located in Canberra and set up currently as a 'PARTY - BBQ' boat. Clients who hire the vessel provide their own meat and alcohol and the owner cooks the meat for them and skippers the cruise for approximately 3 to 4 hours hours. Usually he is doing 3 to 4 cruises a week and from spring to Easter this business is already booked out. Client booking are Buck Night Cruises, Hens Night Cruises, Office Parties, Company Cruises, Sports Club Cruises etc.
She is absolutely fully equipped with a slushy machine, 2 x Stainless Steel BBQ's, a deep fryer, Pizza oven and a Large Pie Warmer. She has 5 big screen TV's. The two upstairs TV's have hydraulic arms allowing them to swing out over the side of the vessel when she is underway, making them completely out of the way of everyone on board and creating more space and a real 'Party' Environment. She is also equipped with a MONSTER sound and lighting system (night time cruises are like a night club!!), with PA and the full works. This very visual vessel gets huge attention every time she goes out and the business has become well known in ACT as cruises are extremely well priced and there is virtually no competition. Plenty of cashflow and offered at a 'FIRESALE'. Very easy to run, operate and maintain. There is heaps of room for improvement in the business by a more energetic owner.
The vessel is 12 metres (Aluminium topside, steel Pontoons) with a beam of 4.3 metre and she is powered a 230hp Volvo making her very economical. She has two 8 KVA Honda generaters to power all systems (only one is used, the other is a spare). She is in the Lastest NSCV (Amsa) 1E survey for 45 pax. and is fastideously maintained and passes her survey every year with flying colors.
If your looking for a better lifestyle with an easy to maintain business with a great income, give us a call and we tell you more.

Make a decision regardless of whether to "push out." Immediately after a player breaks, that same player can declare that he will "push." If he does, he requires an extra shot with the intention of placing the ball in position unlike with a regular shot, this shot does not require any balls to hit a cushion or be pocketed. The push out is always optional. Ghost ball strategy for angle shots: Draw a line from the pocket through the object ball. Imagine a ghost ball touching the object ball and sitting on this line. Aim for the center of the ghost ball. The 45 degree rule , that predicts a ball rolling into an end cushion at close to a 45 degree angle heads close to the center of the table, if very helpful for position play.This is a key tip for sophisticated players of 8 Ball Pool. A widespread problem that gamers run into is receiving a foul for letting the timer run down to . This is a double-whammy because you not only lose your turn but your opponent also gets the cue ball.To play billiards, you are going to need at least two players. If you go 1st, hold your cue stick in 1 hand and brace it on the table between the thumb and index finger of your other hand. Pull the stick back smoothly, then slide it forward speedily so it strikes the cue ball. If a striped ball goes into a pocket, you will play stripes, and if a solid ball goes in, you will play solids. The purpose is to get all of your balls into the pockets just before your opponent does, but hitting the eight-ball into the pocket will finish the game.I have had a quantity of e mail concerns about the greatest way to break in eight-ball. If a player inadvertently sinks the eight ball before all their other balls are in, they drop. This impact is referred to as reduce induced throw: the reduce angle transferred a spin which threw the ball off the anticipated path. Back your cue up and location the tip on the table where the center of the invisible ball (the one particular you imagined next to the actual ball) would be. Preserve the angle that you just produced when you lined up the ball and the pocket.My due diligence confirmed I was not alone in my newfound infatuation. According to a survey by the National Sporting Goods Association, pool and billiards games attracted 36 million participants in the United States in 2005, 37 percent of them female. That was up from 32.3 million in 1998, and virtually half once again the number of people who played golf.Pick handle over energy. It is better to hit the cue ball softly and aim appropriately, rather than break hard and quickly but shed handle of your cue ball. five If your cue ball often misses or "scratches," which means it ends up fouled by falling in a pocket, attempt to shoot more gently. Practice stronger "energy breaks" after you are capable to consistently hit the center of the ball you are aiming for.Most individuals go down for the shot and then begin aiming. The dilemma: Their bodies are aligned differently each and every time. Try it the other way about: Appear at the line you'd like the cue ball to travel along, whilst you happen to be still standing upright. And this contact form then merely try to place your cue on that line (behind the cue ball) and place your body subsequent to it. Now you just have to move the cue forward and boom - the ball goes down.Spot the cue ball. The cue ball's exact placement depends upon the length of the table. If these placements aren't working for you, try moving the cue ball along the side rail or towards the center of the table. Keep in mind, the placement of the cue ball is not incorrect if it works for you. Break from the side on the second ball. This need to drop at least two to 3 balls on break. Excellent point. If you do not make balls on the break playing 8 ball on any table, you are going to drop. Draw: Hit the bottom (six:00) of the cue ball for backspin. The imaginary line goes through the back of the object ball to the point where you will make make contact with with the cue ball.WHEN Andy Beresford started playing pool at age eight, he had no notion it would someday lead to running his own company that brings in millions a year. 8 ball pool is a great game and we literally can't get limitless cash and coins. If you are playing a number of rounds, you only want to lag just before the initial 1. Soon after that, players take turns breaking.There is no doubt that by playing hours with each other you would discover one thing in 8 Ball Pool. Next, click the sort of pool game you want to play - eight ball, 9 ball, or a Time Mode. The timed game is reminiscent of snooker. A ¼ shot sends the object ball out at 48.6º. In playing actual time in the eight Ball Pool app with its shot timers, you could not have time to consider this contact form far ahead. If you loved this article and you would like to collect more info with regards to this contact form nicely visit the site.

When Celena Chan '12 applied for her externship with Bank of America Merrill Lynch last year, she was looking for some real world experience and a look into the professional world.
"I was hoping to get a taste of what finance would be like," said Chan.
However, she ended up with a whole lot more than she had bargained for. After completing her externship, Chan was offered a summer internship at Bank of America.
However, it didn't end there for Chan. After going through the summer internship program, Chan was eventually offered a full-time position at Bank of America.
"We were fortunate enough — because it was competitive — to receive authorization to make her an offer to join us full-time upon graduation," said Howard D. Sitzer '74, a director and municipal bond research strategist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Sitzer was Chan's sponsor and mentor throughout her IAP externship experience.
The Externship Program, started in 1997, matches MIT students with MIT alums for a one-month work experience over IAP. Students apply through the Alumni Association website, and externship sponsors review the applicants for compatibility with the position. The sponsors then send back a list of qualified students, and an algorithm generates matches. This year, a record number of 294 MIT students will be participating in the Externship Program.
For Hsu, co-president of the Sloan Business Club, the Externship Program is an opportunity to get a foot in the door in a company like Bank of America, which offers a select few internships over the summer.
"Externships usually lead to a high chance of getting a return offer for the summer," said Hsu.
However, not all externships are highly technical or career-oriented. Some are arguably the exact opposite, offering students the opportunity to completely disconnect from their courses for a few weeks.
Jessica Lin '12 spent four weeks on a farm in France, clearing and preparing the land for the spring.
"It was hard manual labor," said Lin.
A Course 6, Lin had been considering various coding jobs for IAP. However, the allure of the French countryside got the best of her.

Update: EXO Makes Much-Anticipated Comeback With "Lucky One" And "Monster" MVs
by J. K
Update June 9 KST:
EXO has now released the music video for the second title track off their new full album. On June 9 at 1 a.m. KST, the group dropped the chilling music video for "Monster." Living up to its name, it's naturally a dark track, with the members singing about an intense, passionate obsession while the music video shows them bloodied up and rioting, as well as all dressed up in fancy formal wear. We also get to see parts of their awesome choreography for the track.
Watch it below!
EXO is back!
On June 9 at midnight KST, the hit group made their comeback with the release of their third full album entitled "EX'ACT." The album features two title tracks, "Lucky One" and "Monster," and the Korean and Chinese music videos for "Lucky One" were also released at midnight.
"Lucky One" is an upbeat, funky track seemingly inspired by disco, pop, and R&B that tells the story of a man who's trying to find his true, destined love. In the music video, the guys are being held captive in a laboratory and trying to escape, and they attempt to use their own romantic charms to get out. Check out the Korean and Chinese music videos for "Lucky One" below!
Meanwhile, SM Entertainment is expected to be uploading the music video for "Monster" soon.
The group has already broken their own records with this album, as over 660,180 copies were preordered, bringing in the most preorder sales for one of their albums ever.
After having performed for fans at a comeback showcase on June 8, EXO will be making their first comeback performance on "M!Countdown" on June 9.
What do you think of EXO's new track "Lucky One"?

I only have this on MP3, so I'm guessing that it was a cassette released c1983. Buddy Moore worked live with the CMB's c1982-83 and appeared on Ralph's Live At The Old Homeplace LP, so 1983 seems the most probable date.
From Kermit, Wv. Buddy Moore was nicknamed 'Hook 'n' Beans' by Ralph who introduced him in 1983 saying "he sings it the old time way, and he really puts the feeling (in)to it". On the same show Buddy was introduced as Little Buddy Moore and Henry Moore.
Nine of the tracks feature Buddy on vocals, with one instrumental Amazing Grace. Buddy's vocals have a lot of soul, and fit Ralph's tenor nicely, but they are quite rough around the edges in places.
In additon to this cassette, he recorded a gospel tape; one as Hook And Beans - The Girl I Left Behind; and another as Sammy Adkins and Buddy Moore - Sweetest Love.
As The Hook & Beans band were advertised on the bill for Ralph's 'Hills Of Home' festival in 1989 and 1990, and there's some footage too from the '80s when the festival was relocated to Roxanna with Buddy, Sammy Adkins & Dan Marshall.
I'm also guessing that Dan Marshall plays mandolin on the tape, as it contains a song called This Old Town which Ralph recorded as Hometown in 1978 on Down Where The River Bends, and which was written by Dan.
If anyone has more info on this tape, or a copy, please get in touch via the Contact page!

Home / Caps Prospect / Andre Burakovsky Not Thrilled With Idea of Playing for OHL's Erie Otters
Andre Burakovsky Not Thrilled With Idea of Playing for OHL's Erie Otters
As time moves along, there's less and less certainty on where Washington Capitals first round pick Andre Burakovsky will actually play next season.
The winger, who will likely not return to the Malmo Redhawks in Sweden, was selected fifth overall by Erie Otters in the CHL Draft Wednesday. Later that day, Malmo-based blogger MrMadhawk posted an interview with Burakovsky. As translated by HockeySverige.se editor-in-chief Uffe Bodin, Burakovsky is quoted as saying that "[being picked by the Otters] is not what I had in mind."
Burakovsky has a lot of options on where he can play next season. He's free to sign with any European team. Reports out of Sweden indicate that Malmo's biggest rival, Rogle BK, who were relegated from the Elitserien this year, are interested in Burakovsky's services. Helsingborgs Dagblad reached out to Rogle's manager Anders Carlsson, who didn't deny the team's interest.
Burakovsky returning to Malmo hasn't been ruled out either. Andre's father, famous Swedish player Robert Burakovsky told Expressen.se on Tuesday they are not closing the door on anything. Then on Thursday, Burakovsky Sr. both confirmed that Rogle BK has interest in his son and that he's also not happy with the team that picked his son in the CHL Draft. He also mentioned that a decision on where his son will play next year will be made after Caps Development Camp next week.
According to an unofficial Twitter account covering the Otters, @ErieOttersNews, Burakovsky had a deal in place with the Windsor Spitfires who were picking 11th in the CHL Import Draft. They also say it's "far-fetched" Burakovsky will suit up for the Otters.
Well, there goes that RMNB road trip.

BREEDERS' CUP: Get your picks for the first day
By Kevin Modesti | kmodesti@scng.com | Daily News
November 2, 2012 at 12:00 a.m.
ARCADIA – Horse players will compete for more than $40 million in payoffs this afternoon at Santa Anita on the first of two days of Breeders' Cup racing, including an all-Breeders' Cup pick-four and pick-six.
Not bad for a card that's considered a warm-up for Saturday, when more than $100 million will be up for grabs, with the same tantalizing combination bets.
Today's picks:
Juvenile Sprint: The pick-six starter. Two Santa Anita-based horses stand out. Take Super Ninety Nine (and Bob Baffert) to beat Merit Man.
Marathon: Fame and Glory has competed at the top level in England and won at 1<MD+,%30,%55,%70>3/<MD-,%0,%55,%70>4 miles on turf in Ireland and tries dirt for the first time. But use Atigun, Grassy and Worth Repeating, too.
Juvenile Fillies Turf: Opening a pick-four. Sky Lantern's latest win in Ireland makes her the only Grade I or European Group 1 winner in the race.
Juvenile Fillies: Favorites have won this race nine of the past 10 years. But who's the favorite today? Go with Beholder and her 44-second half-time speed over Executive Privilege, Kauai Katie and Dreaming of Julia.
Filly and Mare Turf: At 12-1 on the morning line, first-time turf runner In Lingerie is worth a stab. Trainer Todd Pletcher chose this race over the Ladies' Classic after the 3-year-old won the Spinster at Keeneland. Pletcher wins 35 percent with horses switching from synthetic tracks to grass.
Ladies' Classic: Royal Delta might be even-money in some years, but in the deepest field at this Breeders' Cup she'll be tested by Awesome Feather, Grace Hall, Questing, Include Me Out, and Love and Pride.
Use them all if you can.
One in a daily series of pointers for betting on the Breeders' Cup at Santa Anita today and Saturday.

GWM Cannon 4X4 Ute to fire in Australia in this year
ByDean Mellor•October 12, 2020
GWM Australia has just announced that the Cannon 4X4 ute will launch in Australia before the end of the year.
Great Wall Motors (GWM) will launch the Cannon 4×4 ute in Australia in Q4 2020 in three dual-cab model grades: the range-opening Cannon, mid-spec Cannon-L and range-topping Cannon-X.
The Chinese-developed GWM Cannon 4×4 ute is gunning for Ford Ranger and Toyota HiLux, and is based on the company's P71 separate-chassis platform, which is also found under the Haval H9 4X4 wagon. Although Aussie specifications are yet to be confirmed, in China the Cannon comes with a strut-type independent front suspension and a live-axle rear-end with coil springs. We do know that in Australia the Cannon will be equipped with a leaf-spring rear-end to ensure a one-tonne payload and at least a 3000kg maximum braked towing capacity.
While Chinese-market Cannons are powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, Australia-bound Cannons will get a turbo-diesel engine mated to either a six-speed manual gearbox or an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission. GWM says the 4X4 system has been developed by Bosch.
The Cannon is around the same size as a Ford Ranger at 5410mm long, 1934mm wide and 1886mm high, and with a 3230mm wheelbase, which will make it one of the larger dual-cab utes on the Aussie market. See here for more details.
The Cannon tub measures a reported 1520mm x 1520mm.
According to GWM Australia: "Exact features and specifications are yet to be fully disclosed but buyers can expect a high level of standard specification combined with compelling value." In other words, the Cannon will likely undercut its rivals while offering plenty of standard equipment.
What we know so far is that the Cannon will be available with a large nine-inch infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, Lane Keep Assist, front and rear parking sensors and an extendable ladder for ease of access to the tub.
Interior of what is likely the top-spec Cannon-X.
GWM Australia has launched a new landing page where potential customers can register their interest and view limited information on the new Cannon.
As soon as we receive any information on pricing, or more detailed specifications, we'll let you know.

As this site was loading, I was yawning (it's 6:14 am here in the Bay Area) and mid yawn I stopped and saw these bottles and said, "These bottles are beautiful!" Cannot believe my yawn stopped to do that! Hahahah! They really are beautiful, though. My goodness. Only thing that scares me is the LEATHER (Everytime I read notes on nee fragrances I chant over and over, 'please no leather. Please no leather!'), and civet.
Ha! They are beautiful. But given the price, they'd be doing you a favor if all 3 were loaded with leather.
Why indigo and not sapphire??
Yeah! I had the same question.
Maybe they weren't as lucky in getting the patent for 'indigo' as they were in getting it for 'peace'.
Wait. Bond No. 9 has a trademark on peace?
She apparently believed she did.
First Bond bottles that are a love, might be worth a sniff. Don't think I would like Indigo though, just don't like lychee..the lychee and peony seem like perhaps they would throw it off for me.
But why bother a sniff when you know the price?
You know, I completely agree with you on the price making it not worth a sniff for a Bond scent. Unfortunately, I'm learning that there are other brands [cough– Amouage–cough–vintage Guerlains–cough] that somehow that reasonable logic starts to fall apart. . .
Agree I haven't taken a huge liking to this line..why buy a bond when you can buy two Guerlains?
Like everyone has said, the bottles are gorgeous, but the prices, not so much! My birthstone is the emerald, so naturally I would want that one so I could keep the bottle. But, the notes in Indigo are more appealing to me. Might try to get some samples, as I have never even smelled anything from the Bond line. Dies anyone have a favorite Bond that you would recommend me getting a sample of?
Chinatown for the sheer chypre-fruity fun,New Haarlem for a great coffee-note!
New Haarlem is coffee-soaked GORGEOUSNESS. Great Jones is a wonderful modernized version of an eighties men's chypre. And I quite liked Brooklyn, Lexington Avenue, So New York, and Bleecker Street back in the day.
Mind you, I haven't smelled any of these recently: they were all fantastic five, six, seven years ago, but they could be anything by now.
D'oh! I was at a Bond No. 9 counter a few weeks ago, and got a sample of Chinatown, but forgot about New Haarlem.
I think Turin described it as having a lacquer note – like the inside of one of those Chinese boxes. Anyway, he was very enthusiastic about that, but it was the same element that I found off-putting!
Yeah, those bottles are gorgeous, but at those prices (and at that location) they're obviously aiming for the ungodly rich Middle East market.
And Indigo is so stupid if your other scents are called Ruby and Emerald. SO stupid. Liz Taylor (or rather the marketing team) knew what was what when she did those three jewel scents.
I'm wondering what those glass panels are made with? At that price better be the finest crystal!
No glass panels, just a transparent coloured bottle with the gold printed around to make it look like a panel. Not as nice in the flesh as when it's lit and photoshopped for the photo !
A number of perfume bottles have been made using the domed arabesque design, but I do like the way the motif has been adapted to fit the Bond bottle.
It's unfortunate how many bottles look better in photos than in real life.
And yes, for the price one might have thought a metal sleeve was viable!
Oooh no, the bottles are coloured but the juice isn't totally clear so you'll still see the fill level through the glass. Cheap Coloured glass bottle + gold printing + juice that costs a few pounds to make = selling price of £480 just doesn't add up – at least Roja dove sticks a few tacky fake jewels onto his bottles to make them REALLY tacky opulent !
I find the names off-putting. A bit tacky opulent.
At least there are no swarovski crystals in sight….
These look amazing! When will they be in Harvey Nichols Dubai?!

ARSENAL will be on tenterhooks over their chances of bringing back former hero Cesc Fabregas after he refused to rule out a return to the Emirates.
Has Cesc Fabregas given the thumbs up to a return to former club Arsenal?
Fabregas has been linked with an emotional transfer back to Arsenal, just two seasons after he 'headed home' to boyhood club Barcelona.
The Gunners fans would likely instantly forgive Fabregas for leaving the North London outfit if he were to return, such is the high-esteem he remains held in.
The 25-year-old refused to be drawn on the transfer speculation though, but did not rule out again playing for the side he joined aged just 16.
"I do not know what is being said and even what is written," said Fabregas. "I can only say that I alone know my own future."
The Spanish midfielder suggests he knows what his summer plans are, but such was his coy reply that speculation is unlikely to die down immediately.
Arsenal have since replaced Fabregas with compatriot Santi Cazorla, while Jack Wilshere is tipped to eventually play as a number 10.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has previously discussed his belief that Fabregas could one day return to the club, while the deal that took him to Barca for around £30m is thought to include a buy-back clause.


Heart disease affects more than 17 million people and is still one of the top killers in the United States. Pulmonary disease, just behind cardiac conditions in seriousness, is on the rise and can have severe debilitating effects on those who suffer from it. The need for cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation treatment is essential to improve a patient's quality of life and to help prevent future heart or lung recurrences.
Since 1985, the High Point Medical Center Heart Strides program has been helping patients with cardiac disease. In 1998, a pulmonary component was added to support patients with lung disorders, and the program became Heart Strides Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program. Today the program helps more than 300 patients per year in High Point, Greensboro and Winston-Salem.
Industry statistics show significant reduction (20-50 percent) in recurrences and health care costs for patients completing cardiac or pulmonary rehab versus those without rehabilitation. Eighty-five percent of Heart Strides participants complete the program, and 40 percent continue into the maintenance phase of the program.
Cardiac rehabilitation is a medically supervised wellness program, which improves the survival in some patients afflicted with heart disease by more than 50 percent, according to a recent Mayo Clinic study.
If you've recently had a heart attack, heart-related surgery or been diagnosed with stable angina, or heart disease, the Heart Strides Cardiac Rehabilitation program can help to restore your physical strength and endurance, and improve your overall health.
Situated within the hospital's Fitness Center, and supervised by a professional staff of cardiologists, nurses, exercise physiologists, dieticians and mental health counselors, Heart Strides offers the heart patient a pathway to a better quality of life. Utilizing structured exercise progressions, an informative education component and lifestyle awareness tools, the Heart Strides program establishes a good foundation for participants to make healthier lifestyle choices, leading to a more productive future. The exercise is done in a supervised group setting with each participant having a personalized exercise prescription based on their health concerns and fitness level.
Cardiac rehabilitation is covered by most insurance companies including Medicare. Limited scholarships are also available based on financial need.
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a service that provides group exercise and educational sessions, designed to meet the individual needs and goals of each participant. Using a team approach, our patients work closely with doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, exercise specialists, dietitians and others to improve their day-to-day lives. Pulmonary rehabilitation meets 3 days a week in the Fitness Center.


civil rights act 1957 | Is The Father Calling YOU to His Son, Yashua Messiah?
By way of a recap the first six parts of this series of articles are a revelation of the subversive racial, political and anti-white motives behind the Black Liberation Theology, Black Jesus blasphemy. As proven in those articles, the satanic Bolshevik Marxist Jews are, and have always been, the driving force behind this satanic anti-Christ anti-white movement with its, more than willing, demonic deluded blacks as the foot soldiers.
– Israel Cohen, 1912, Jewish Secretary of The World Zionist Organisation and co-founder of The Fabian Marxist Society with George Bernard Shaw and Israel Zengwill, author of "The Melting Pot" in 1910.
What I find interesting, too, is the overtime that Canaanite Jewish owned and controlled sites like Wikipedia put into claiming that these quotes are forgeries, when they are from a well researched historian and honourable Christian man by the name of Eustace Mullins.
From: "The Illuminati and the Council on Foreign Relations", by Myron Fagan.
Nevermind that the Canaanite-Jews were by far the most active force involved in the black slave trade, for which they bear not one atom of guilt nor any remorse. Well being Serpent Seed snake creatures without a conscience why would they feel guilty? A total impossibility.
OK I think that completes the early historical foundation of this evil satanic business so we now move on to more recent events and when this Black Jesus garbage came into being in its modern guise.
So here we can see that there has been a recent surge in growth of these deluded black people who even tried to gain citizenship in the unlawful state of Israel, only to be deported as aliens by the Canaanite Jews – who continue to reject these blacks and their whack job claims as being Jews and/or descendants of the Israelites.
In part 8 I will deal with some of the Holy Scriptures that these people twist, pervert and distort in order to try and prove their whacky satanic claims.

Aul, the Crystal King is one of the three major bosses found within the Azurite Mines. He is located in The Abyssal Sanctum.
This boss fight contains 8 Crystalline Cocoons around the arena. These cocoons will open and shoot homing projectiles if the player is near. During Aul's throne phase, the Spectral Shield Charge can destroy the cocoons if they explode near them. At some point during this fight, Aul will clap his hands together, create Darkness, and spawn minions. In order to avoid the Darkness from stacking up, the player can either strategically use flares or hug the small flares that drop from some of the minions.

Aul retreats upon his crystal throne in the center of the arena and fires a total of 6 spectral copies of himself. These clones shield charge towards the player with exploding steps and then explode on impact. The clones are fired one at a time in a slow rate of succession. The base duration for this attack is 10 seconds and deals 75% Cold Damage and 25% Physical Damage. These clones can open the Crystalline Cocoons by damaging them, but will trigger the Crystalline Barrage attack.
Here are all the possible items that can drop from this boss fight.

Q: Downloadable data resources / content for iphone / ipod applications I am working on an application that uses quite a large amount of content (images and text). I would like to be able to provide additional content bundles to those - and only to those - who already have my app on their device. E.g., if my app were a newspaper / magazine / book reader, I want to give the subscribers the ability to download new issues / books (along with the ability to select, at any time, any of the already downloaded bundles at will). So the app will work with only one bundle at a time - but the users should be able to select any bundle.
As I mentioned, I only want to provide the extra bundles to those who already have my app on their device, and I wonder if it is possible to provide these extras via AppStore.
I understand I could always get extra content downloaded by my app from a website and installed locally, but in such situation I could not control who will be accessing my website (and it is always possible to discover its URL, along with any "unique" identifiers, via traffic sniffing).
I am sure there is some standard solution used by some or other  newspaper / magazine / book reader applications, but I cannot find any documentation / api / code examples.
Thank you!

A: Check out StoreKit, it sounds like exactly what you need.

Yoko Ono Dedicates 'Wish' Tree for Art

WASHINGTON — Artist Yoko Ono hung a wish for love and peace in the world from a tree she dedicated Monday at the Hirshhorn Museum's Sculpture Garden.
The "Wish Tree for Washington D.C." is part of an ongoing project Ono started in the 1990s to encourage the public to get involved in art. Viewers can write their wishes on small pieces of paper and tie them onto the tree.
Ono's wish read, "Let's cover the planet with our love and make it a peaceful world for all of us and our offsprings." Others' wishes on the Hirshhorn tree were for peace in Africa, an end to gang violence and "to get a promotion this year."
Ten wish trees are installed around the city as part of the "Street Scenes: Project for DC" art program. The trees are at the steps of the Jefferson Memorial as part of the National Cherry Blossom Festival, at the Town Hall Education, Arts & Recreation Campus in Anacostia and at the Smithsonian's Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden on the National Mall.
The Hirshhorn's tree, a white Japanese flowering dogwood, will remain as permanent artwork while the other trees will be planted in the Anacostia community when the installation concludes April 15.
Ono, the widow of singer John Lennon, said she has collected more than 100,000 wishes from people around the world, including those from other wish trees in Europe and Asia. The wishes will become part of her "Imagine Peace Tower," an art installation that will open in October 2007 in Reykjavik, Iceland.
"Any wish that you make is part of the wishes of the human race," said Ono.

The Minority in Parliament is threatening to initiate "a vote of no confidence" against the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission if she does not improve her work.
According to Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu, EC Chairperson Jean Mensa is supervising a regime which has suffered a decline in public confidence.
He further criticized her handling of challenges associated with the EC's data Centre, registration of new persons who turn 18 and the implementation of ROPAA.
Haruna Iddrisu made these remarks during contributions to a statement on the implementation of ROPAA.
"The Electoral…Commissioner must up her game or else we will call for her head… My faith in the Electoral Commission is waning," he warned.
The Peoples Representation Amendment Act known as ROPAA is the law passed to allow Ghanaian citizens living abroad to vote in general elections.
Because government supports the EC financially in excess of GHc 350 million, Mr. Iddrissu insisted that the commission does not have an excuse for underperforming.
"We should even have an Electoral Commission which makes it mandatory that on daily basis, Ghanaians can walk to them to when they attain 18 to register for the purpose of voting," Mr. Iddrisu said.
Jean Mensa has faced consistent criticism from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) since she was sworn in in August 2018.
The NDC had even threatened to stage a demonstration after the previous chairperson, Charlotte Osei was removed from office together with her two deputies on June 28, 2018, for stated misbehaviour and incompetence.
At the time, the NDC said it should be consulted before Jean's Mensa's appointment.
The opposition party also fears Jean Mensa may be a pawn of the governing New Patriotic Party ahead of the 2020 elections.
Former President John Mahama in also described the nomination of four new officials to the Commission as a "regrettable" decision.
