The startling revelations about massive U.S. surveillance programs run by the National Security Agency emerged in early June just as President Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping were about to begin their informal summit meeting where cyberespionage was high on the agenda.
While the Obama-Xi summit succeeded on several levels, the two leaders made no discernible progress on cyber issues beyond referring them for further discussion to a senior intergovernmental meeting in July.
So the critical question arises: Will the NSA revelations — particularly the aggressive U.S. hacking of Chinese networks and the concerted U.S. efforts to prepare offensive cyberattacks against potential adversaries including China — torpedo the progress made at the summit?
Though columnist Joe Nocera at the New York Times argues that "the existence of Prism will make it far more difficult to force the Chinese to get serious about stopping their own hacking," I respectfully disagree. I believe the NSA revelations will help the U.S. and China move forward in addressing cyberespionage issues and in so doing, strengthen their overall relations. Here's why.
To be effective, the diplomatic process for reducing tensions on security issues between Washington and Beijing must be grounded in reality — in truthful and factual analysis of specific threats. Out of shared assessments of those threats, the two countries can develop measures that will improve their mutual security.
At the summit meeting in California, this is precisely how the U.S. and China strengthened their cooperation for dealing with the nuclear threat from North Korea. The two sides moved closer to a common assessment of the dangers posed by Pyongyang's weapon programs which then enlarged their overlapping interests and led to a pledge to work together on implementing joint security strategies.
The same can be said for the summit agreement on hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) — a particularly dangerous class of greenhouse gases — where China embraced the U.S. view that the two countries need to cooperate more closely to mitigate the risk of global warming.
No such agreement on the divisive issue of cyberespionage was remotely possible at the summit because the policy discussion was not grounded in a realistic assessment of the threat. China denied it engaged in cyber-hacking and called itself a victim of extensive cyberattacks. The United States portrayed China as the leading aggressor in attacking U.S. cyber networks while minimizing and concealing American surveillance activities in cyberspace.
In essence, both countries used misleading rhetoric to conjure up false images of reality in order to protect their interests in pursuing cyberespionage. But the political consequences for the United States were worse. The recent revelations of NSA's surveillance activities validate Beijing's view of itself as equally victimized by cyberattacks and demolish the one-sided U.S. portrayal of China as the preeminent aggressor in this field.
We now know the reality that both countries engage in extensive cyber-hacking and are each victims of the other's attacks. Both Beijing and Washington seek to penetrate foreign companies, government agencies and military organizations to obtain industrial, military and political secrets in order to enhance their national security.
The good news is that just as in the case of North Korea and climate change, it has now become possible for the U.S. and China to develop a frank, realistic and shared analysis of the threat posed by cyberespionage — enabling them to devise joint measures that curb those activities in their mutual best interests.
The revelations about NSA surveillance activities also potentially strengthen U.S.-China relations through their impact on public opinion in both countries.
In the United States, a recent Time magazine poll indicates a majority of Americans feel confessed leaker Edward Snowden did "a good thing" by revealing the NSA's massive surveillance activities. This positive view will be a powerful force in rectifying the widespread and false public perception of China as a singularly nefarious actor in cyberspace.
In time, the U.S. public will come to see massive surveillance and cyber-hacking as a particularly dangerous form of espionage because these activities heighten the risk of a "cyber Pearl Harbor" that could lead to a nuclear response and thus need to be regulated and controlled to the greatest extent possible through international arrangements in order to avoid destabilizing U.S. relations with China and other countries.
Americans are also likely to lend strong support to the view that "we desperately need to have a public discussion about the proper limits on NSA," in the words of Matthew M. Aid, a leading U.S. intelligence historian.
In China, the impact of the NSA revelations on public opinion is no less significant. The widely reported revelations have effectively empowered people to protest their own government's repressive internal security apparatus — which relies heavily on monitoring phone calls and internet communications — by inspiring citizens to stand up online and in social media for human rights and freedom of speech.
In Hong Kong, a "special administrative region" of the PRC, demonstrations against NSA surveillance are revitalizing the commitment of politicians, human rights lawyers and ordinary citizens to the unique civil rights protections they continue to hold following the reversion of Hong Kong to China in 1997.
These developments give good reason to believe that the U.S. and China will be able to tackle divisive cyberespionage issues in the foreseeable future as part of an ongoing process of mutual threat reduction, which has become increasingly critical to the security of both countries.

Burning Man: The Mechabolic
Author: Lane HartwellLane Hartwell
Story by Brian Doherty
Photo by Lane Hartwell
BLACK ROCK CITY, Nevada – A 130-foot-long slug by the name of The Mechabolic is supposed to crawl across the Black Rock Desert at Burning Man, eating trash and creating gas and electricity. It is also supposed to sequester carbon in the form of an agriculturally useful char to balance whatever carbon dioxide it emits.
As of Thursday afternoon, it is still mostly a metal platform on wheels with an assortment of mulchers in front, a blown big-block Chevy engine in the middle and a gasifier in back. But project leader Jim Mason, a San Francisco Bay Area artist with many years of Burning Man experience, predicts that the gasifier will fire Thursday night and the slug will begin to crawl Friday.
As he noted Thursday afternoon at the Mechabolic work site amidst tent-toppling high winds and thick dust clouds, with a dozen workers around him scrounging parts, attaching ribs and moving planters, "Burning Man is a process of breaking people down through excess for a transformational experience. I've worked myself into an idiom of self-initiatory building excess. We're building an unprecedented system to produce engine-quality gas on coffee grounds and redeploying it in a sculpture, and there have been lots of difficulties." Perfecting some aspects of his gasification system, he says, may end up a multi-year project. He insists, though, that the sculpture will eat, produce gas and move before Burning Man ends.
Gasifier technology is nothing new conceptually, Mason says. It's a process of creating usable gas that was popular during fuel shortages in World War II, though in an era of cheap and easy petroleum we've mostly forgotten about it.
Gasification involves burning any sort of carbon biomass – anything from paper to wood chips to coffee grounds – at a temperature just below full combustion that produces carbon monoxide and hydrogen as byproduct gases. These will be used in Mechabolic to power an auto engine to move the sculpture, a generator for electric lights and gas lights and flame effects. Mason is trying to lessen the carbon impact of the process by sequestering some of the carbon that might otherwise have ended up in the atmosphere by taking it out of the char bed inside the gasifier and using it for soil enrichment. It will be shoveled into planters attached to the sculpture's sides, containing live edible plants.
Since gasification relies on burning what's normally trash, Mason thinks Mechabolic can help people re-imagine their relationship to waste and the energy-consumption process, befitting this year's Burning Man art theme of Green Man.
"He hopes to help move people toward imagining their energy consumption not as pure maximizing their energy bang for the buck, but more like our attitude toward food. There, taste, aesthetics and self-identity considerations shape our consumption, not mere calorie maximization."
The piece is called Mechabolic to highlight the parallels between our energy consumption and the energy consumption of our machines. That's why it's designed to emulate an animal's energy-consumption process, with a "mouth" (the mulchers), "lungs," (the engine) and excretory process (the carbon char at the end).
Brian Doherty is a senior editor at Reason magazine and author of the books This is Burning Man and Radicals for Capitalism.

Reparations and Remembrance: Determining the Future of German-Namibian Relations
This is part of our special feature on European Art, Culture, and Politics.
Since gaining independence in 1990, Namibia has engaged in a process of seeking reparations from the German government, requesting compensation for the material damages and loss of life that incurred during Germany's colonial rule in German South West Africa from 1884 to 1915. It has lobbied for formal financial restitution in a number of different ways, most recently through an unsuccessful, but highly publicized, class-action suit brought against the German government in 2019—a case that was conducted, and subsequently dismissed, in a US District court in New York.[1] In addition to these ongoing demands for financial recompense, the Namibian government has been looking for other types of concession from Germany as well. Namibia has repeatedly demanded a formal state apology from the German government, seeking accountability for Germany's criminal colonial conduct in German South West Africa and an admission of historical guilt for the violence perpetrated there.
Although now chronologically removed by more than a century, the legacies of Germany's short-lived colonial rule persist in everyday Namibian life, decidedly shaping aspects of the country's cultural and political memory and affecting decisions pertaining to land reform, aid and economic development. Bilateral relations between Germany and Namibia have suffered as a result of Germany's unwillingness to acknowledge its past colonial transgressions, making it difficult for both countries to engage in a meaningful diplomatic process of reparation and reconciliation. A central point of contention is formal state recognition of the impact the Herero Nama Wars had—and continues to have— on Namibian society. Identified by scholars as the forgotten genocide of the twentieth century, this conflict occurred between 1904 and 1908 and claimed more than 100000 indigenous lives.[2] Organized as a systematic and government-sanctioned extermination campaign that sought to eliminate opposition to German settler strategies in German South West Africa, these wars resulted in the creation of internment camps, forced relocations of survivors and a complete destruction of the traditional means of life and social structure for these indigenous populations, particularly the Herero and Nama people. This violence has been well documented and studied by historians, many of whom have linked this conflict directly to subsequent impunities perpetrated by the German government during National Socialism.[3] They cite this colonial warfare as an important historical precursor to later developments in Germany, thereby drawing a trajectory between these two forms of state violence and noting in particular the tolerance with which (on both occasions) the German public regarded these events of forceful transgression on part of their government.
Despite the overwhelming historical evidence that exists as to the culpability of the German imperial army in committing these colonial crimes, successive German governments have been slow, if not reluctant, to recognize this aggression in Namibia as an act of genocide. It is only in 2015, a full 111 years after the conflict had occurred, that the German parliament designated the Nama Herero Wars as genocide. It is important to stress that it made this key pronouncement rather inadvertently, and as a joint political measure, while recognizing other historical massacres. This German recognition of the Namibian genocide occurred thus in a rather happenstance manner in both its genesis and execution. As historian Henning Melber explains, the German government was in the process of recognizing the centenary anniversary of the Ottoman Armenian killings in 1915 and had already conclusively voted to declare those national massacres a form of genocide. This vote elicited criticism from the Turkish government, which queried the authority of the German government to make such announcements in view of its own undeclared colonial crimes, thus directly accusing Germany of hypocrisy and selective historical memory.[4] It is only through the process of addressing these criticisms, which quickly spread through the international and national press, that Germany finally pronounced its own colonial killings in German South West Africa as an act of genocide.
The belated recognition of the Namibian atrocities as genocide is particularly unacceptable, as there has been a history of concerted public efforts to designate this violence as systematic and intentional mass murder. There have been many reputable studies conducted that have qualified this conflict as genocide. Most significantly, in 1985 the UN Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities published the so-called Whitaker report that unequivocally termed the colonial violence in Namibia as an act of genocide.[5] Drawing on the 1948 United Nation definition of genocide, the Whitaker report expanded the application of the word genocide past the Nazi crimes committed during World War II, using this particular term to describe a set number of other large-scale global massacres. The report included the 1904 German massacre of the Herero people on its list of cited historical genocides. This transnational political document had, however, little impact on formal German government policies at the time and did not lead to substantive changes in terms of its official state narrative regarding German colonial rule in Namibia. Advocacy for formal, government recognition of the Namibian genocide continued to take place at the local level as well, but with similarly little effect. For example, in 2015 the Berlin-based alliance Völkermord verjährt nicht launched a starkly worded petition to the German government, demanding that it recognize its colonial massacres in German South West Africa as genocide.[6] The petition pressed the German government to engage in a dialogue with descendants of the victims of the genocide and to commit to a transparent process of reconciliation that would secure forgiveness from the current Namibian government.
The 2015 parliamentary recognition of the genocide committed in German South West Africa was, moreover, not accompanied by a formal government apology, nor did it contain a clear strategy regarding compensation for those affected. Instead, this parliamentary admission merely initiated another stage of genocide negotiations between Germany and Namibia, facilitating a discussion of these difficult historical events at the government level. These negotiations continue until this day. Chronologically speaking, the matter of issuing an unambiguous state apology has been a frustrating and rather drawn-out process for the Namibian people that began at the centenary commemorations of the Nama Herero War in Okakarara in 2004. At that event the then German Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development Heidemarie Wieczorek-Zeul, gave a speech and, seemingly moved by the occasion, veered off political script to deliver a spontaneous apology in which she acknowledged German culpability for the war. She directly acknowledged the suffering that occurred during the Herero Nama Wars and offered sincere regret for trauma and the loss of life that incurred. She stated:
A century ago, the oppressors–blinded by colonialist fervour–became agents of violence, discrimination, racism and annihilation in Germany's name. The atrocities committed at that time would today be termed genocide – and nowadays a General von Trotha would be prosecuted and convicted. We Germans accept our historical and moral responsibility and the guilt incurred by Germans at that time. And so, in the words of the Lord's Prayer that we share, I ask you to forgive us our trespasses.[7]
To date, this has been the most thorough apology to date offered by the German government to the Namibian people.
Wieczorek-Zeul's gesture of reconciliation was regarded by many as a turning point in the history of bilateral relations between Namibia and Germany, as it indicated a resolute public effort to address the colonial crimes committed in German South West Africa.[8] Rather significantly, her speech marked an end to the blanket denialism that had dominated German state narratives in regards to its criminal conduct in Namibia, indicating a change in perspective of this history and a possible admission of the state's moral responsibility for its colonial past. The speech brought considerable international attention to the genocide itself, educating the public to its historic occurrence and ongoing aftermath. On the domestic front, Wieczorek-Zeul's admission spurred intense and immediate German economic investment in Namibia, most obviously through the somewhat misguided German Special Initiative that began in 2006 and ended in 2017.[9] The 2004 apology also initiated a decisive and steady shift in public perception of the Namibia atrocities, compelling individual German citizens to consider this national violence as a genuine injustice against the Namibian people. In 2007, descendants of Lothar von Trotta, the general who issued the 1904 extermination order against the Herero people, travelled to Namibia to offer a private family apology. A series of important symbolic repatriations also took place in the wake of Wieczorek-Zeul's speech. In 2011, after much negotiation, twenty human skulls were returned to Namibia from Berlin's Charité hospital in a public ceremony. The skulls derived from victims of the genocide and had been shipped to Germany during and after the war for race research purposes. In 2014, 2018, and 2019 there were additional returns of human remains to Namibia, with accompanying ceremonies that were attended by dignitaries from both countries.[10]
These repatriations of human remains were highly-publicized events that were covered by and discussed in the media, and this attention helped further propagate the quest of the Namibian government for reparations. Other gestures of reconciliation have taken place in recent years in Germany. A number of pillaged cultural artefacts have been returned to Namibia by various state museums, an undertaking that marks an increased socio-institutional awareness of the importance of decolonizing and restituting these items to their country of origin. In 2019, the Linden Museum in Stuttgart thus returned personal items belonging to Hendrick Witbooi, the legendary Nama leader, which had been stolen from his home during an attack by the German army in 1893. The return of these heirloom items, a Bible and his whip, was a deeply emotional event for both the Witbooi family and the state, and their very public return to Namibia was seen as key gesture of reconciliation on part of Germany and especially on part of the State of Baden Württemberg.[11] The highly-emotional, three-day ceremony that took place upon the return of these items to Namibia highlighted the vital heritage value these items continue to have for the local Nama population, and the role such objects play in shaping local cultures of identity and belonging. The status of other individual colonial museum objects, taken from German South West Africa and currently housed in institutions throughout Germany, continues to be reassessed by cultural authorities in both countries. In 2019, a strong example was made by the German Historical Museum in Berlin, whose staff, upon request, unanimously agreed to return a key item of their permanent collection to Namibia, publicly noting its institutional inappropriateness to keep it.[12] The Stone Cross of Cape Cross, a fifteenth-century territorial marker that used to stand on Namibia's coast has been marked for imminent return to Namibia.
Within Namibia itself, the national commemorative culture has also been changing to reflect a staunch anti-colonial attitude and to mark a history of anti-colonial resistance. The memorial landscape in Windhoek is a good example of this. In 2014, the towering Namibian Independence Memorial Museum opened to the public, in which the Herero Nama genocide is presented as an important part of official state history and formally explained through a curated exhibit. The physical location of the museum is directly connected to the perpetration of genocide. Overlooking the city, the museum was, namely, built on the unmarked site of a former wartime concentration camp, reclaiming, as it were, this territory for decisive and clear anti-colonial commemorative purpose. The building of the museum significantly altered the colonial urban layout of Windhoek, breaking up a symbolic triad of structures built by the German colonial government to reinforce their presence in the country: the Alte Feste, Christuskirche and the so-called Reiterdenkmal. The relocation of the Reiterdenkmal in Windhoek is particularly interesting. Erected in 1912 by German settlers, it was a "triumphalist" monument celebrating German military victory in the Nama Herero Wars.[13] Despite the change of colonial regime in 1915, the statue was not removed from this prime location, and, in fact, became a type of mascot for the city, appearing on stickers, posters, beer labels, etc. It was eventually relocated from its original location to accommodate the building of the Independence Museum. In 2013, the statue was finally completely removed from the urban landscape and is now hidden from public view, marking the end of this particular type of military remembrance in Windhoek.
In view of these developments, and the decade-long, well-documented history demanding commensurate state recognition for the colonial genocide committed in Namibia, it is surprising to learn of the type of demands made by the German government in recent negotiations. The German government's negotiation team, led by politician Ruprecht Polenz, a member of the Christian Democratic Union party, has steadfastly maintained that the discussions held are primarily "political-moral" in nature and therefore decidedly not subject to legal investigation and judicially mandated financial compensation.[14] This rules out the possibility of monetary recompense now, while also precluding the possibility of making fiscal demands in the future. More alarmingly, the German negotiating team has been seemingly reluctant to engage with a nomenclature that would appropriately designate the violence of the war as a matter of genocide, avoiding the genocide designation as a suitable description for what happened in Namibia between 1904 and 1908. As Henning Melber explains, the intention of the German negotiating team is to modify the terminology that is in current use to describe the German colonial violence in Namibia, "suggesting in tendency to revert the terminology from 'genocide' to 'atrocities.'"[15] The German Federal Foreign Office has explained the government's disagreement with the genocide designation as a matter of historic linguistic pedantry, citing the unique relevance that word bears for the Holocaust, and claiming that the terminology of German colonial misconduct must appropriately reflect its own historical context.[16]
This diplomatic linguistic wrangling is troublesome for several different reasons. Foremost, once set and agreed upon, the language of the negotiations will be used to write the definitive historical narrative of Germany's colonial involvement in Namibia and this hegemonic narrative will, in turn, shape both countries' collective memory. By avoiding the application of apposite terminology to describe what transpired in German South West Africa during its colonial regime, the German government is interfering with an accurate preservation of the truth, thereby manipulating future interpretations of these historical events. This interference, which is explicit and unapologetic in nature, clearly affects more than contemporary politics alone, it determines the very process of memorialization with which we should consider the Namibian genocide, altering how we reflect on—and ultimately comprehend—these very violent events of the past.

Heavy smoke rises following an airstrike by the US-led coalition aircraft in Kobani, Syria, during fighting between Syrian Kurds and the militants of Islamic State group, as seen from the outskirts of Suruc, on the Turkey-Syria border, October 18, 2014.
At least 26 Syrian civilians have been killed in an airstrike suspected to have been launched by the US-led coalition against the so-called Islamic State, piling pressure on the alliance after allegations another bombing raid left regime soldiers dead.
But according to a monitoring group, strikes on Monday on the village of Al-Khan in north-eastern Syria only left civilians dead.
Rami Abdel Rahman of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Isis is in control of Al-Khan but is only on its outskirts, "which is why all of the deaths were civilians".
A spokesman for US Central Command said the military was investigating the allegations. "We take all such allegations seriously and conduct credibility assessments of all information we receive regarding civilian casualties. If the information is deemed credible we will investigate and publicly release the results of the investigation," the spokesman said.
Last month, the US said four civilians were "likely" to have been killed in strikes against Isis in Iraq. And in November 2014, it admitted accidentally killing two children in a strike in Syria.
A militant Islamist fighter waving a flag, cheers as he takes part in a military parade along the streets of Syria's northern Raqqa province.
But the US denied the claim, saying four alliance airstrikes in the eastern province of Deir el-Zour all hit oil wells about 55km (34 miles) south-east of Ayyash.
"We did not strike any vehicles or personnel targets in this area. We have no indication any Syrian soldiers were even near our strikes," the coalition statement said, adding that it takes allegations of potential collateral damage seriously and investigates them.
Much of Deir Ezzor is under Isis control, but the regime still has a presence in small areas, including in the provincial capital.
The province's oil has been a major source of Isis funding, but on Monday analysis firm IHS said the group was having trouble making ends meet due to airstrikes on its oil infrastructure.
IHS estimated Isis's overall monthly income to be about $80m as of late 2015, around half of it from levies and confiscations.
Staunch regime ally Moscow began its own aerial campaign in Syria on 30 September and coordinates its strikes with Damascus.
On Sunday, Barack Obama vowed to destroy Isis and hunt down its followers at home and abroad.
While pledging to "hunt down terrorist plotters in any country", Obama also said he would not be "drawn once more into a long and costly ground war in Iraq and Syria".
"They know they can't defeat us on the battlefield ... but they also know that if we occupy foreign lands, they can maintain insurgencies for years, killing thousands of our troops and draining our resources, and using our presence to draw new recruits," he said.

Running for The Best Startups: VC Fund Competition
"Competition is always a good thing. It forces us to do our best. A monopoly renders people complacent and satisfied with mediocrity." — Nancy Pearcy, author
Venture Capital is a private market that has grown exceptionally over the last few years. In 2019, USD$160bn of capital was invested globally, 13 times more than in 2010. Since 2009, Venture Capital funding accumulated USD$754bn with 77,227 transactions. In 3Q 2020 alone, Venture Capital funding in North America, Asia and Europe accumulated USD$72bn. However, by the end of the first half of 2021, a handful of Venture Capital funds control the majority of available resources in this industry.
In the US there are approximately 2,500 VC funds, 74% are funds of less than USD$250mm AUM, 14% between USD$250mm to USD$500mm and 12% funds of more than USD$500mm. However, competition is not fair, with 12% of funds controlling 66% of resources, 14% funds 18% and the vast majority, 74%, only managing 16% of resources. In 2018 Bessemer Ventures Partners raised USD$1.8bn in its tenth fund, the largest ever. In March 2020, General Catalyst raised USD$2.3bn in three different funds. On the same date NEA, raised USD$3.6bn accumulating over USD$24bn in AUM. In April 2020 Lightspeed raised USD$4.2bn in three global funds. Sequoia raised USD$7.2bn in a China, India and US fund in July 2020. Tiger Global recently raised USD$7.5bn in two funds.
Competition in Venture Capital is fierce and not always fair. Reputation and brand recognition are often key elements for Venture Capital funds to maintain a position of strength. Something similar happens with entrepreneurs, whose reputation, experience and connections are fundamental in raising capital and developing the startup.
The following matrix shows the value of Venture Capital and the entrepreneur in this race to be a unicorn. It measures the quality of a fund including its reputation, track record, power to attract outstanding entrepreneurs, above-market advice and experience, outstanding pipeline and non-monetary resources to support its portfolio companies. Quality under this criterion is subjective and focuses on the experience the entrepreneur might have. Quality is not necessarily determined by the size of the fund or the length of time it has been in the market.
1. Potential Unicorn
When a highly reputable Venture Capital fund meets with experienced entrepreneurs we could speak of the birth of a potential unicorn as the combination of the two is explosive. For the entrepreneur this is a beneficial situation as they may be able to generate investment interest from multiple funds, obtaining term sheets and being able to leverage their negotiating power. For some VC funds this could prove to be a complicated transaction as they will have to demonstrate their value-add, track record and capabilities with acumen during the negotiation. In any case both have the motivation to be successful at all costs while maintaining their reputation.
2. Easier transaction
When a highly reputable fund meets a first-time entrepreneur, we could be looking at a potential home run or a major failure. The founder has had the ability to convince a reputable fund to invest in him, either on his own or through third party recommendations. The fund has the opportunity to offer favorable terms on the transaction. Even the degree of competition for this transaction with other Venture Capital funds may be limited.
3. High-risk transaction
When a first-time entrepreneur encounters a low-quality fund, it is the key to a potential disaster. This represents a high-risk transaction where neither party has a strong case for success. Probably neither party and especially the entrepreneur had more attractive options.
4. Strategic transaction
A strategic transaction may occur between experienced entrepreneurs and low-quality funds, both parties recognize their added value by leveraging these capabilities in the success of the transaction. Entrepreneurs may be the party benefiting from better terms and the opportunity to have enough capital to continue their venture.
Just as entrepreneurs compete for capital, Venture Capital funds compete for access to the best ventures. Being a qualified and experienced entrepreneur takes time. The same is true for VC funds. It is not necessarily the case that the best-known fund in the market will be the fund with the highest quality or that represents the best interests of the entrepreneur. There are many biases in the Venture Capital ecosystem.

A former accountant of the National Water Supply and Drainage Board's (NWSDB) Kelaniya regional office was sentenced to 37 years rigorous imprisonment by the Colombo High Court. This is for misappropriating Rs.13 million after fraudulently using its manager's signature.
The accused was ordered to pay Rs.4 million fine on eight counts. The accused Ananda Mabola (66) was further ordered to pay Rs.13 million as compensation to the National Water Supply and Drainage Board. High Court Judge Gihan Kulatunga observed that the accused will have to serve an additional 23-year jail term in the event of defaulting the compensation.
The High Court Judge maintained that the prosecution has proved the accused guilty beyond reasonable doubt on eight counts.
The Attorney General had filed indictments against the accused for misappropriating Rs.13 million belonging to the Water Board from 57 cheques on several occasions in 2015.
Investigations had revealed that the accused had fraudulently used the branch manager's signature to withdraw money from cheque transactions.


The objective of the Fund is to achieve long-termcapital appreciation through investment in a portfolio primarily invested in securities of UK companies. The Fund will primarily invest in securities of UK companies. Up to 10% of the value of the Fund may be invested in non-UK companies. The Fundmay also invest inmoneymarket instruments, deposits,warrants and units in other collective investment schemes. The benchmark against which performance is measured is the FTSE All Share TR Index in Sterling. At all times at least two thirds of the Fund's total assets will be invested in equity securities of companies domiciled or exercising the predominant part of their economic activity in the United Kingdom. The Fund may use derivatives (complex instruments) in an attempt to reduce the overall risk of its investments or reduce the costs of investing, although this may not be achieved.

Alluaudia
Alluaudia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Didiereaceae. There are six species, all endemic to Madagascar.Most occur in the southwestern subarid forest-thicket vegetation of the island.Spines are arranged around the leaves as a defense against herbivores. The spines are several meters above the ground, and probably evolved in response to herbivory by now-extinct lemurs, such as Hadropithecus. Several lemur species living today feed heavily on Alluaudia, such as the ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) and the white-footed sportive lemur (Lepilemur leucopus).

Q: how introduce numbers by keyboard in java What do I have to do in order to introduce numbers by keyboard in Java on eclipse which are the libraries? What is the command to read that? Do I have to write libraries or eclipse do it automatically?

A: This is simple program to get user input
import java.util.Scanner;
class GetInputFromUser
{
   public static void main(String args[])
   {
      int a;
      float b;
      String s;

      Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

      System.out.println("Enter a string");
      s = in.nextLine();
      System.out.println("You entered string "+s);

      System.out.println("Enter an integer");
      a = in.nextInt();
      System.out.println("You entered integer "+a);

      System.out.println("Enter a float");
      b = in.nextFloat();
      System.out.println("You entered float "+b);
   }
}

A: Sounds like you're asking how to get a number input from the keyboard in Java...I think...It's hard to understand what you're asking.  If that's what you're asking, well, try this:
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;

class InputNumber
{
    public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception
    {
        Scanner in = new Scanner (System.in);
        int number;
        System.out.println ("enter a number");
        number=in.nextInt();
        System.out.println("You entered: " + number);
    }
