Sparx Systems Supports Standards Development for Intelligent Transport Systems
ISO/TC 204 and CEN/TC 278 standards developers deploy Enterprise Architect
CRESWICK, Australia September 17, 2018
Sparx Systems has entered into a collaboration with the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) communities in International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and European Committee for Standardization (CEN), to support the important work of standards development. Members of ISO/TC 204 and CEN/TC 278 will be able to use Enterprise Architect and Pro Cloud Server to create and maintain UML models.
Adding more intelligence to transportation allows people, goods and vehicles to move faster, safer and more efficiently. Road authorities and industry stakeholders know this and are eager to upgrade their road networks, creating a dynamic high-growth industry.
For several years, Sparx Systems and their Enterprise Architect software has been supporting the development of several families of ITS standards which are widely used. For example, with the aim to support sustainable mobility in the European road sector, the DATEX II family of standards (CEN16157 series) was developed for information exchange between traffic management centers, traffic information centers and service providers and constitutes the reference for applications that have been developed over that period. Enterprise Architect continues to be used as the core tool for technical maintenance of the standards. Enterprise Architect is also used to underpin other standards families including public transport standards and traffic and traveler information standards created in both ISO/TC204 and CEN/TC278.
Ken Harkin, Head of Strategic Relations at Sparx Systems said,
"As the ITS sector evolves, our support for the standards development work being undertaken must be capable of supporting changing demand driven by increasing complexity. It must support collaboration. The Pro Cloud Server supports team based model reviews and discussions and is globally accessible via the WebEA interface from any smart phone, tablet or computer. No longer bound by time, location or device, team productivity is unleashed."
Maarten Peelen, Committee Manager of CEN/TC 278, said
"This support from Sparx Systems is very welcome, as ITS standards development advances. The development of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) will allow road users and traffic managers to share and use information and coordinate their actions, which is key to significantly improving road safety and traffic efficiency.
C-ITS typically involves communication between vehicles (V2V), between vehicles and infrastructure (V2I) and/or infrastructure -to-infrastructure (I2I). A shared vision is essential to develop standards for complex C-ITS scenarios and in this sense, Sparx Systems technology will prove invaluable to our work."
Dr Jon Harrod Booth, a ITS standards developer for more than 20 years, commented,
"The kind support Sparx Systems provides has helped several standards Technical Committees develop consistent and coherent UML models across many industry standards; and this strongly helps developer communities. This collaboration with the ITS standards communities provides a great boost to the work we are undertaking."

PARTNER WITH HONEYGUIDE
At HoneyGuide we are driven by a lust for mountains and the urgency to:
Introduce Transparency in Nepal's Adventure Travel Industry
through information so actionable that anyone will be confident to hit the trails on their own. We believe that travel companies should not and need not depend upon fear and ignorance to sell tours.
Put Trekkers in Charge of their Treks
by providing them with tools to run their treks the way they see fit. We believe putting the power back in the hands of the trekker will not only make our trails safer, but also give more people the confidence to undertake a trek in the Himalayas.
Empower Local Service Providers
like Lodges, Guides, and Porters by giving them direct access to trekkers. This we hope will not only result in an equitable distribution of tourism dividends, but will also increase service level faster as now kickbacks and discounts will not be the factors that will bring in business.
For the work we have done, we have received positive reviews from many places
If you are looking for insights, stories, leads, or contacts in the Himalayas, please free to contact us.

EMPOWERING THE HIMALAYAS | FEB-2-2019 | PRESS RELEASE
HONEYGUIDE YOUR WAY TO EVEREST
HoneyGuide launches a new way to trek to Everest Base Camp.
Kathmandu, Nepal. To cater to a new generation of trekkers who are used to booking everything online, HoneyGuide has introduced a system which helps trekkers book flights, lodges, guides, and even porters online. The system brings together around 86 lodges, 26 trekking guides, and 1 airline into an integrated booking system.
The idea is to give trekkers the confidence to undertake a trek on their own while maintaining complete control over their trek. The founders of this system hope that putting trekkers in charge of their treks will help them get the most out of their trek.
"Transparency is at the heart of what we do," says Ashish Shrestha, one of the three Co-Founders of HoneyGuide. "We believe in providing no-strings-attached information so that the trekkers can decide on how best to run their trek. So while trekkers are booking the Everest Base Camp Trek in HoneyGuide, they can either book the whole trek, just flights, a few lodges, or a guide, that is their call. HoneyGuide makes all of that possible easily. We even provide trekkers with contact details of lodges and guides so that trekkers can book them directly if they wish to."
Based on the fact that HoneyGuide's "Trekking in Nepal" mobile app has been used by over 20,000 trekkers, it can be reasonably inferred that providing trekkers with high-quality information is a must at this age.
Abhishek, another co-founder with experience in managing adventure sports events like the Everest Marathon, however, thinks that there is more to the story than just information. "Information might be a part of the story, but personalization is more important. People are used to things bending around their needs, and they want things to happen exactly when and how they want it. For example 15 years ago, everybody would buy international flights and hotels in Kathmandu from trekking companies. Now that number is effectively zero. If anyone wishes to do well in the travel industry, they have to give exactly what the trekkers want at their convenience."
Indeed HoneyGuide's new online system allows trekkers to select the lodges they want as they plan their Everest Base Camp Trek, select the guides they wish to take, and book them at their preferred dates. "We have worked very hard to make customizing and booking a trek as easy as buying a travel package.", says Diwaker Ghimire, CTO and Co-founder.
"However, it is people that have made HoneyGuide work," says Dakshina Khadka, who oversees Communications at HoneyGuide. She adds, "The best part of building this new system, was the support we got from everyone in Everest. More than the technology I feel that HoneyGuide is a reflection of the trust that lodge owners and guides have put in a system that will hopefully bring a measure of transparency and community empowerment in Nepal's trekking industry."
Indeed online systems like HoneyGuide have been known to help the service providers in the travel industry get their fair share of tourism dividends. For example with Airbnb, there are millions of people in the world who have benefited directly from the travel industry. Also, noteworthy is the fact that online booking platforms like Expedia and Booking.com were instrumental in the rise of smaller boutique hotels around the world.
Asked what is next for HoneyGuide, Ashish says that, "Similar issues exist not just in Everest, but the Annapurna, Langtang, Manaslu and even in Ladakh and Himachal regions. Wherever there are mountains, HoneyGuide will be there. However, for the next few months, we will focus all of our effort on working with Service Providers, Destination Marketing Organizations, Non-Residential Nepalese and even Travel Companies to promote Nepal more creatively. More information can be found at HoneyGuide's website."
About HoneyGuide| https://honeyguideapps.com/p/about-us
HoneyGuide is a technology company based in Kathmandu that makes sure that men and mountains meet more often by providing trekkers with quality information, and capacity to book guides, flights, lodges, and porters in the Everest Region.
Press Kit: https://honeyguideapps.com/partners/press-center
We are surely not alone to realize that Nepal's trekking industry is going through massive changes and I hope we are not alone in believing that it can get better only if we listen and understand each other more. As such, to facilitate this communication, Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality in collaboration with HoneyGuide will organize a Press Trip to Everest in May. We will be extremely honored if you could be part of it.

FMA in Itajaí, Santa Catarina: helping the victims of the catastrophe. Sorrow and solidarity
When Santa Catarina began to suffer the consequences of the rain, mudslides and flooding, The school of Lar P. Jacó, administered by the Salesian Sisters of the province of Porto Alegre who daily attend to 400 children, adolescents and young people, its collaboration to the victims of the Catastrophe in the city of Itajaí.
As soon as they became aware of what was happening, one of the greatest catastrophes ever registered in the region, the FMA of Lar P. Jacó immediately made themselves available to the Civil Defense in the area, spreading out from one side of the city to the other, transporting entire families and helping themselves to get settled in a dignified manner. They worked together with the SDB of the Parque Dom Bosco and of the Salesian College. Now the FMA, together with the laity, even those who have lost everything in the catastrophe, have rolled up their sleeves and are working to bring aid to those who are homeless. There are many stories of sorrow and lament, but also many of solidarity and forgetfulness of self in favor of those who suffer.
On November 23 when the rivers overflowed flooding 90% of the city of Itajaí, many of the FMA and SDB opened their doors and their hearts to welcome them. This was the key word: welcome them into the physical space, but even more in the inner space, offering comfort and consolation. Approximately a thousand families have received aid from the FMA and SDB. On the first day alone many people were fed with bread, meat and other foods. The supermarkets were under water, so all that the FMA and SDB had was put together and distributed to those in need.
On November 28 the Civil Defense set up a camp at Lar P.Jacó and even there the FMA could be found. Now the water is going down and families want to return home to begin rebuilding, but frequently they find nothing. What are they to do?
For this reason Lar P. Jacó prepares meals for 3000 every day. The people have no possibility for cooking. Meanwhile the Civil Defense has entrusted to Lar P. Jacó and to the Sisters the preparation of food for the people. Every basket contains 5 small rolls, a bowl with hot soup, and liters of water. It is the Sisters, assisted by the laity who go to where the families are to be found to give their support.
On the 28th 4,600 baskets were prepared and distributed. On the 29th, more than 3,100 baskets. On December 1, 1,800 during the morning and more than 1,200 in the evening. The Civil Defense has determined which zones are more in an emergency situation. Among these those that have been served by the FMA are the neighborhoods of Vila da Miséria, Pró-Morar (1, 2 and 3), Cordeiros e São Vicente.
Lar P. Jacó, situated in the Fazendo, in Itajaí, was not touched by the water, but it was not possible to work with the children who are usually there because of the priority of assisting the homeless. The waters are receding, but there is a movement of the land and mudslides that are razing many houses.

We're very happy to hear that Google isn't going to stop producing Nexus-branded products anytime soon, particularly since both its Nexus 5 smartphone and its Nexus 7 tablet were two terrific gadgets. Now @evleaks brings us word that Google's next major tablet, which will likely be called the Nexus 9, will have some absolutely killer specs that should make it the best Google tablet yet released.
For starters, the Nexus 9 will be manufactured by HTC and will feature a silver aluminum unibody design. HTC really does produce terrific hardware so we're definitely excited to see the Taiwanese company's take on Google's Nexus tablets.
Other specs for the tablet, which is currently codenamed "Volantis," include an 8.9-inch display with a resolution of 2560×1600 pixels, a 64-bit, 2.3 GHz Tegra K-1 quad-core processor, 5GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. @evleaks says that the device is being tested out right now with a 5-megapixel camera, although he says it may ship with an 8-megapixel camera when it actually launches.
We still don't know when the Nexus 9 will actually be announced, although recent rumors suggest that Google will start mass production of the device in July or August, which likely means the device will launch early in the fall.
UPDATE: @evleaks now says that these leaked specs were part of a hoax perpetrated by a 14-year-old posing as a Google engineer. It can happen to the best of us.

Apple cider vinegar is used widely in a variety of treatments and for generally improving health. No wonder, it is called nature's cure-all! Apple cider vinegar is made by fermenting crushed and aged apples. It contains acetic acid, lactic, citric and malic acids.
For our skin, the malic acid component of apple cider vinegar brings the best benefits. Malic acid is helpful in maintaining the pH levels of our skin, which is essential to keep our skin healthy. It possesses antibacterial and antifungal properties which keep skin infections at bay. Apple cider vinegar also helps to clean the skin pores and removes the dead skin cells effectively. Use organic cider vinegar with 'the mother' to get the best benefits for your skin.
Apple cider vinegar acts as an astringent, helping to firm up the skin. Applying it regularly as a skin toner on your face, prevents wrinkles and fine lines forming on the skin.
Add equal parts of water to some apple cider vinegar and apply over your face with a cotton ball. Wash it off after half an hour to find a soft skin with improved complexion. You can also soak in a bath to which some apple cider vinegar has been added. This benefits the skin tremendously.
If you are suffering from a sunburn, due to over exposure to sun, apple cider vinegar is very effective in providing relief. It is very cooling and relieves pain. Add equal quantity of apple cider vinegar to some water and dab this over the burnt skin. This immediately soothes your skin. You can also soak in a bathtub to which a cup of apple cider vinegar is added.
Acne affects many people and can be a very painful and difficult skin condition to manage. Apple cider vinegar is beneficial in treating acne. It is very strong and can burn if applied directly.
This is especially true for people with a sensitive skin. Therefore, it is necessary to dilute the apple cider vinegar with water, and then apply it over the acne affected areas on your skin. Doing this twice a day treats acne completely.
Fungus develops in the moist areas of the body. A fungal infection of the skin can easily be cured using apple cider vinegar. For foot fungus, add some apple cider vinegar to a bucket of water and soak your feet in this water for fifteen minutes every morning and evening. Undiluted apple cider vinegar can also be applied on the infected region. It will sting a bit, but will cure the fungal infection in a very short time.
Apple cider vinegar is a popular home remedy for treating dandruff on the scalp. It is said to restore the pH balance of the skin of the scalp, thus helping eliminate the fungus that triggers the formation of dandruff.
Pour some diluted apple cider vinegar into a spray bottle. Now, spray this solution on the hair and scalp. Wrap a towel over your head for half an hour and then wash the hair well. Do this a couple of times a week to get rid of the dandruff.

carries out economic activities 'without restrictions or barrier such as import and export tariffs', barrier to market entry and policies (Johnston, Gregory, & Smith, 2011, free trade). Many countries have reaped benefits from free trade and especially developing countries. Some benefits include improvement in infrastructures, expanded markets, access to technologies, free movement of labour and capital, investment, and political relations in form of integrations. These benefits have played a major role in the economic developments of developing countries. However, some countries argue against free trade claiming that it is a burden to developing countries and they object it. Some arguments against include exploitation of developing countries by industrialised, environmental pollution, unemployment of domestic workers, and underperformance of domestic industries thus affecting the country's economic growth. Free trade has positively impacted to developing countries by stimulating their economic development goals such as millennium development goals thus it can be said to be realistic in the real world. Free trade was found to work out for countries such as Japan, South Korea, China, other East Asia countries, and most of the developed countries in the world. Trade liberalization led to development of these countries and to attainment of their current level of 'developed countries' in the world. The countries formed 'free trade and economic partnership agreements that helped in negotiations of trade across borders was important in facilitating trade,' technical support, services, environmental and social issues (Zeng, 2010 p. 651). The guidelines helped countries to carry out trade in a defined environment that prevented them from exploiting each other in terms of natural resources. As a result, the countries realised developments. This has also worked out for developing countries such as those in sub-Sahara Africa for example Egypt. Moreover, free trade agreements encourage foreign direct investments in developing countries increasing inward revenues to these countries. The increased revenues to these countries are channelled to development projects such infrastructures and improving social amenities to citizens. In addition, foreign direct investments create employment for domestic workers thus helping developing countries to lower their unemployment rates. This is one of the achievements that have contributed greatly to shifting of countries from undeveloped cycles to becoming developed. For example, foreign direct investment has contributed to development of China. China is among the developing countries that' has the largest reserve of foreign direct investments' (Chen, & Emile, 2013 p. 120). China has attracted many foreign investors due to reduced market barriers such as 'uniform tax for both domestic and foreign investors' and trade liberalization resulting to increase in its gross domestic product (Davies, 2013 p. 11). As a result, China's economy has continuously grown making it among the most developed countries. This has shown how trade liberation impacted on the development of countries through trade agreement that encourages foreign direct investment.

Matthew Weinstein (born May 6, 1964 in New York City) is a noted and versatile contemporary American visual artist, installation sculptor and film maker.

Art
Matthew Weinstein's early works throughout the 1990s focused on gestural abstraction, cartoon drawing, photographic-based imagery of ghostly images, and a fascination with blood, death, skulls and bones.

Currently, Weinstein's primary medium is 3D animation and 3D rendering. Using the 3D modeling and rendering program Maya, he creates videos of animated spectacles, involving actors, musicians and animators. He then creates paintings and sculptures using a wide variety of technologies, such as bronze casting, rapid prototyping sculpture, airbrush, stenciling and resin casting. As Weinstein's cast of virtual singing characters expands, a digital repertory company begins to exist, with characters from one project appearing in another, or in a painting or a sculpture.

Weinstein's digital drawings and videos explore the often ambiguous line between reality and unreality in an American culture that increasingly experiences reality through the filter of a virtual world. In contrast to the precision-like rendering of his constructed and sculptural compositions, the overall impact of this work is one of unreality, or rather "hyperclarity", in which reality and unreality merge, becoming indistinguishable. Drawing on a number of influences, most notably early Japanese animation and the ancient aesthetic discipline of Ikebana floral arrangement to futuristic science fiction, Weinstein sets up a balance between the real and the abstract as well as nature and artifice. For the animated video installation entitled "SIAM", a computer animation of a couple of Siamese fighting fish, Weinstein wrote both the music and choreographed the performance.

Life
Matthew Weinstein grew up in New York City with his father, I. Bernard Weinstein, who headed the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center at Columbia University and has been credited with helping create the field of molecular epidemiology, and his mother, the former Joan Anker; and his sisters Claudia, of Manhattan, and Tamara, of Atlanta, Georgia. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Columbia University in 1987. Weinstein lives and works in New York.

Weinstein's primary gallery is the Sonnabend Gallery in New York. He is also represented by the Baldwin Gallery in Aspen, Colorado and exhibits nationally and internationally. In 2004 alone, his work was the subject of a major installation at the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, Germany, and his films were projected in the Kunsthalle Vienna, Austria and screened at The Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus, Ohio.

Weinstein is the recipient of many awards, including a Wexner Center for the Arts grant.

Museum Collections
Weinstein's works of art are in private and public collections around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Nassau County Museum of Art in Roslyn, NY, the Sammlung Goetz and the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen in Munich, Germany.

3 Tech Stocks That Will Thrive on the 5G Boom
Scott Fields- February 21, 2020, 10:04 AM EDT
5G is here. The new digital wireless technology first started to make waves in 2017, with connectivity tests in Argentina, Norway, and Poland. By late 2018, active 5G networks were starting to appear on a limited basis in various urban areas, and in 2019 the first nationwide networks went into operation in the US and China. As 2020 matures, industry analysts expect to see these networks expand, as providers move into the mid- and high-frequency bands.
The new network rollout brings with it a slew of opportunities, as does any new technology. Original equipment manufacturers will need new components. The new networks will require a denser network of towers and transmitters, which in turn will require their own hardware. Semiconductor chip makers especially are looking forward to increased sales as the new equipment brings with it needs for updated and upgraded chips.
But the chip makers, OEMs, and transmitter tower construction firms aren't the only companies in line to gain from the 5G switchover. Semiconductor chips need to be quality controlled, and individual customers will need to update their modems and WiFi routers.
We've delved into TipRanks' database and found three companies that inhabit these niches – two that make chip testing gear and one that develops network communications equipment. All three are poised to gain as ancillaries to the big winners in 5G. Let's take a closer look.
Cohu, Inc. (COHU)
Cohu, first on our list today, designs and manufactures semiconductor testing equipment for major chip makers around the world. The chip makers have been showing gains in recent months, as they see improve demand at least in part attributable to 5G ramp-up, and COHU shares have been joining in the industry's upbeat outlook. The company's stock is up an impressive 80% in the past six months.
The company showed a drastic improvement in its most recent earnings report, released earlier this month. The net loss shrank from $1.40 per share in Q3 to 42 cents in Q4. The improvement in earnings came even as net sales slipped by 16% to $142 million. Looking ahead, the Cohu expects to see 2020 start the year with first quarter earnings between $140 and $152 million, in line with the analyst forecast of $143.6 million.
The narrowed losses helped the company support its dividend payment of 6 cents per share. At an annualized payout of 24 cents, this gives the dividend a modest 1.04% yield. Cohu has a twenty-year history of maintaining its dividend payment, even though the current payout ratio, in the negative, implies that it is not sustainable.
5-star analyst Sidney Ho, of Deutsche Bank, writes of Cohu, "We believe the company is well positioned for a favorable set-up in CY20 and beyond as key end markets stabilize and Cohu benefits from secular growth trends such as 5G and data center growth. We believe there could be upside to 4Q19 and 1Q20 estimates as Cohu has started to see the initial 5G-enabled smartphone ramp in its test business and the auto market has shown signs of improvement."
Ho reiterates the Buy rating he initiated on this stock last month, and sets his price target at $27, suggesting an upside of 20%. (To watch Ho's track record, click here)
All in all, with 5 recent Buy ratings set, COHU gets a unanimous Strong Buy consensus view from Wall Street's analysts. The stock is selling for$22.53, and the average price target of $29.20 indicates a 30% upside potential. (See Cohu stock analysis at TipRanks)
Onto Innovation (ONTO)
Our second stock, Onto, is another test equipment manufacturer. Specifically, Onto makes process and process control equipment for the semiconductor industry. Onto was formed this past October, as a result of the merger-of-equals between Rudolph Technologies and Nanometrics. Onto inherited Rudolph Technologies trading history, with the ticker ONTO.
The merger created the fourth largest American company in the semiconductor capital supply field, with a market cap of nearly $2 billion. The company holds a leading position in the chip makers' supply chain, and as they expand 5G chip production, Onto stands to gain with them.
Onto's Q4 earnings lived up to the hype of the merger, and of 5G. The company reported 41 cents EPS, beating out the 39-cent expectation by 5%. Revenues, at $120.6 million, beat the forecast by 3.2%, but gained an even more impressive 56% year-over-year. As with Cohu above, which inhabits a similar niche, Onto's gains come as the chip industry begins to turn around after a difficult year.
Mark Miller, 5-star analyst with Benchmark, is impressed with Onto's quick increases in earnings and revenues – and he attributes it to the expansion of 5G. Miller writes, "A secular recovery is underway in Semicap equipment sales, and this recovery coupled with the ramp of 5G phones with greater memory chip content is expected to drive growth latter this year and into 2021."
Giving the stock a $50 price target, Miller suggests that it has room for a 31% upside. As such, Miller reiterated a Buy rating on ONTO shares. (To watch Miller's track record, click here)
Overall, this stock has 3 recent reviews, and all are Buys, making the analyst consensus another unanimous Strong Buy. The $49 average price target implies an upside of 28% from the $38 current trading price. (See Onto Innovation's price targets and analyst ratings on TipRanks)
Casa Systems, Inc. (CASA)
Last up is Casa, a small-cap player in the telecom equipment industry. This $366 million company is a provider of cable, modem, optical, and WiFi networking products, and offers solutions for both fixed and mobile service providers.
Casa is at forefront of high-end 5G broadband access development, and is well positioned to expand its business – Casa has been working with Sprint on small cell systems since October of last year, and the T-Mobile-Sprint merger – which was cleared by a Federal judge earlier this month – promises to give Casa access to a much larger network. And that network will be in need of 5G modem solutions.
The company next reports earnings on February 20, and may benefit from having lowered the bar back in November. At that time, when the company dropped its FY2019 estimate to the $255 to $270 million range (from $320 to $350 million), the stock fell 38%. It has not regained those losses – but by now, the lower guidance is baked in and the expected 2-cent loss for Q4 represents a 5-cent sequential improvement from Q3.
Writing from Northland, 5-star analyst Tim Savageaux takes a bullish stance on CASA. He says of the stock's general position, "The closing of the TMUS/S merger is one factor likely to accelerate 5G wireless builds in the US, joining an already aggressive push by VZ, which is in turn likely to drive stronger network investment among US Cable MSOs…"
Looking at CASA specifically, Savageaux adds, "[We see] a strong finish to the year in Cable network spending, as well as the potential for accelerated 5G spending post the clearance of the TMUS/ S merger yesterday. CASA announced a win with S for its Pebble in Q419, and also highlighted its 5G fixed wireless CPE capability…"
Savageaux upgraded his position on this stock, bumping it from Neutral to Buy, and giving CASA a $6 price target. His target implies an impressive upside here of 31%. (To watch Savageaux's track record, click here)

Gestehen Sie, Dr. Corda! ist ein deutscher Kriminalfilm, der 1958 unter der Regie von Josef von Báky gedreht wurde. Der Schwarzweißfilm, dessen Handlung auf einer wahren Begebenheit basiert, wurde von Artur Brauners CCC-Film hergestellt. In der Titelrolle als Dr. Fred Corda ist Hardy Krüger besetzt, Cordas Ehefrau wird von Elisabeth Müller verkörpert. Tragende Rollen sind mit Hans Nielsen, Siegfried Lowitz, Fritz Tillmann, Rudolf Fernau, Lucie Mannheim und Eva Pflug besetzt.

Die Uraufführung des Films fand am 22. Mai 1958 im Ufa-Palast in Hamburg statt.

Handlung
Der verheiratete Assistenzarzt Dr. Fred Corda hat ein Verhältnis mit der Krankenschwester Gabriele Montag. Eigentlich wollte diese am Abend einen Sprachkurs besuchen und danach mit ihren Kolleginnen Fasching feiern. Sie verabredet sich jedoch mit Corda zu einer Aussprache. Da sich der Dienstschluss des Arztes unerwartet hinauszögert, muss Gabriele einige Zeit am vereinbarten Treffpunkt im Wald warten. Dort wird sie Opfer eines brutalen Mörders, der sie mit einem Fäustel erschlägt und ihren leblosen Körper an das Ufer eines Baches zerrt. Wenig später findet Corda die Leiche. Obwohl er am Tatort Spuren hinterlässt und ihn eine Zeugin in der Nähe der Toten gesehen hat, meldet er den Mord nicht bei der Polizei. Stattdessen begibt er sich in sein Zimmer im Krankenhaus. Er schweigt auch gegenüber seinem Vorgesetzten Professor Schliessmann, der mit Corda am Abend noch ein vertrauliches Gespräch führt. Anschließend fährt der Arzt nach Hause zu seiner Frau Beate und seiner kleinen Tochter Susi.

Am nächsten Morgen verbreitet sich im Krankenhaus die Nachricht, dass Schwester Gabriele spurlos verschwunden ist. Zugleich berichten einige Krankenschwestern, dass sie in letzter Zeit von einem Mann belästigt worden seien. Das Ärztekollegium verständigt die Polizei und macht sich auf die Suche nach der Vermissten. Nachdem man ihre Leiche entdeckt hat, beginnen Oberinspektor Dr. Pohlhammer und Inspektor Guggitz mit den Ermittlungen. Noch bevor es zur ersten Befragung Dr. Cordas kommt, wissen die Beamten, dass dieser ein Verhältnis mit dem Opfer hatte und schon vor der Polizei am Tatort war. Im Verhör wird Corda mit mehreren belastenden Indizien und Zeugenaussagen konfrontiert. Obwohl der Arzt kein Geständnis ablegt, steht für Pohlhammer und Guggitz eindeutig fest: Dr. Corda ist der Mörder und der Wagenheber aus seinem Auto das Tatwerkzeug.

Während ihr Mann in Untersuchungshaft kommt, unternimmt Beate Corda einen Selbstmordversuch. Die erdrückenden Beweise und die durch die Presse aufgebrachte Öffentlichkeit zehren an der Widerstandskraft aller Beteiligten. Dennoch gibt es Menschen, die Corda glauben und seine Unschuld beweisen wollen. Dazu gehören seine Frau Beate, die ihm sein Verhältnis bald verziehen hat, und sein Vater, der den namhaften Anwalt Dr. Nagel als Verteidiger und den früheren Polizeimajor Juch als Detektiv engagiert. Andere, wie der einst mit Corda befreundete Dr. Schimmer, wenden sich während der sich hinziehenden Haft von Corda ab.

Nach einiger Zeit kann Detektiv Juch einen als Frauenschreck bekannten Mann dingfest machen, der sich aber als letztlich harmloser Exhibitionist erweist. Verteidiger Dr. Nagel ist bei seinen Untersuchungen erfolgreicher. Zwei mit dem Fall betraute Sachverständige können feststellen, dass das Obduktionsgutachten fehlerhaft ist und Cordas Wagenheber nicht die Tatwaffe sein kann. Dennoch gelingt es nicht, eine Haftentlassung zu erwirken. In ihrer Verzweiflung erleiden sowohl Dr. Corda als auch seine Frau Beate fast einen Nervenzusammenbruch. Da klärt sich das Verbrechen überraschend auf. Unter den gleichen Tatumständen geschieht ein weiterer Mord. Der Täter wird gefasst und ist sofort geständig. Dr. Corda ist frei und kehrt zu seiner Familie zurück.

Entstehungsgeschichte

Vorgeschichte und Drehbuch
Das dem Film zugrunde liegende Drehbuch von R. A. Stemmle trug zunächst den Titel Gestehen Sie, Dr. Kordes. Es beruht auf tatsächlichen Geschehnissen, die sich 1955 im oberösterreichischen Steyr zugetragen haben. Der im dortigen Landeskrankenhaus beschäftigte Narkosemediziner Günther Hoflehner wurde seinerzeit unschuldig in einen Mordfall verwickelt. Eine 25-jährige Krankenschwester war missbraucht und erschlagen worden. Der Arzt, dem ein Verhältnis mit der Krankenschwester nachgewiesen werden konnte, kam unter schweren Mordverdacht. Im Zuge der Vernehmungen verstrickte er sich in Widersprüche, so dass er in Untersuchungshaft genommen wurde. Erst nach 187 Tagen Haft stellte sich heraus, dass die Beschuldigungen falsch waren. Die Tat konnte schließlich dem 1957 verhafteten Serienmörder Alfred Engleder zugeordnet werden. Statt die Filmhandlung auf die spektakuläre Mordserie auszurichten, konzentrierte sich Stemmle auf den nicht weniger spannenden und dramatischen Justizirrtum.

Entsprechend ist nach dem Filmvorspann folgendes Zitat zu lesen:

Besetzung
Sowohl bei der Wahl der Darsteller als auch beim technischen Stab griff der Filmproduzent Artur Brauner auf ein erfolgversprechendes und bewährtes Team zurück. Die Regie übernahm Josef von Báky, der während der Dreharbeiten sagte: "Es wird ein anklägerischer, ein aggressiver Film, der zum Nachdenken zwingen soll."

Hardy Krüger und Elisabeth Müller übernahmen die Hauptrollen. Auch bei der Besetzung der Nebenrollen verließ man sich auf etablierte und namhafte Schauspieler, allen voran Lucie Mannheim, Hans Nielsen, Siegfried Lowitz, Fritz Tillmann und Rudolf Fernau.

Produktion

Die Außenaufnahmen wurden in Goslar und Umgebung gedreht. Die Innenaufnahmen fanden in den Studios der CCC-Film in Berlin-Haselhorst statt. Die Bauten entwarfen die Filmarchitekten Erich Kettelhut und Helmut Nentwig. Ursula Stutz war für die Kostümberatung verantwortlich. Als Regieassistent fungierte Ottokar Runze. Herstellungsleiter war Horst Wendlandt.

Kritik
Der Kritiker Falk Schwarz schrieb: "Einer, den die Kinobesitzer als 'Kassengift' bezeichneten, weil seine Filme floppten, war Hardy Krüger. Zunächst als Typ der gute Junge von nebenan, ehrlich, offen, abenteuerlustig, positiv. Doch schon mit 'Alibi', Der Fuchs von Paris' suchte und fand er Charakterrollen, die ihn oft auch negativ zeichneten. Kraftlos ertrug er sein (Film-) Schicksal. Das goutierten die Zuschauer nicht." Der Schauspieler Krüger könne die inneren Qualen des Corda nicht wirklich darstellen, hieß es weiter. Sein Ausbruch in der Gefängniszelle bleibe laut und ungestaltet. Baky inszeniere keine "innere Wandlung". Gelobt wurde, wie "technisch hochstehend manche der deutschen Filme der fünfziger Jahre" gewesen seien, wofür dieser Film "ein gutes Beispiel" sei. Abschließend führte Schwarz aus: "Die großartige Lucie Mannheim als die Haushälterin, deren Nerven blank liegen und die nicht mehr in der Familie Corda bleiben will, gestaltet diesen inneren Aufruhr in einer Weise, die Hardy Krüger seiner Rolle schuldig bleibt."

Leadership program provides horsepower
"There are tons of masterminds out there," Edholm said. "There aren't ones that tie in personal development and give you a chance to escape once a month by being in a beautiful space in Las Vegas."

Kri Edholm's passion for the outdoors and helping others resulted in developing a unique opportunity for area business leaders.
Offered through the Leadership Excursion Co., Edholm's opportunity is the Horsepower Mastermind program. The program held its first session on Jan. 10 at the scenic Cozy Heart Ranch in North Las Vegas.
"After launching HorsePower Mastermind in January, we have seen great success with the business and personal growth components of our programming. Facing and navigating the challenges that COVID-19 means that providing leaders with support is more important now than ever before," Edholm said.
Because of the state's business restrictions to battle the COVID-19 pandemic the Horsepower Mastermind program is on hold until the fall. Meanwhile, Edholm is hosting weekly Open Office sessions that are free and virtual. Register here to receive updates on the program.
"This is an opportunity for business owners and leaders to continue to gather and support one another," she said. "We also see this as a chance to build upon our HorsePower Mastermind programming so that when we re-launch this fall, we'll be able to support both personal and professional growth in a more meaningful and impactful way."
Edholm, along with her partner Katelynn Eddy, founded Leadership Excursion Co. four years ago. Their company offers custom retreats and excursions, personal development programs and team building.
The Horsepower Mastermind program uses equestrian-related activities to build a community of like-minded professionals who want to grow personally and professionally.
"We work with people on their leadership skills," Edholm said. "Like the way they present themselves, their confidence and the way they communicate, both verbally and nonverbally."
According to Edholm horses read body language, detect heart and breathing rate and sense moods. Horses have these sensitivities because they are a quintessential flight animal, basing relationships solely on trust.
"Horses, within seconds, can see your authentic self," Edholm said. "If you're scared or too meek, they know it. They won't respond to you because they're not going to see you as a leader."
The two-hour program gives Mastermind participants the opportunity to gain a greater awareness of communication strengths and weaknesses. This awareness includes discovering how nonverbal communication influences the horse and, in turn, how it's perceived by others, learning how to lead others with earned authority and using body language to support communication.
Besides developing leadership skills, the program is structured to build meaningful connections to other professionals, accomplish professional and personal goals, refine business objectives, personal development and self-care.
Self-care, according to Edholm, is important for professionals to integrate into their lives. Her goal is that participants completely unplug for two hours while focusing on their business and themselves.
"Often as leaders we don't take care of ourselves," Edholm said. "Being with horses is so relaxing. It helps refresh."
The session begins with meeting collectively as a group. Pairs are formed and work together during the following month, building relationships by helping each other with professional challenges and celebrating business successes.
"It's a buddy system," Edholm said, who oversees the business portion of the program. "Every month you'll have a new buddy. That way you'll get exposed to many different viewpoints and perspectives to help with the success of your business."
Following the group session, participants are introduced to the horses. Different stations, such as grooming, are set up to allow individuals to get comfortable being around a large animal; especially those who have never been around a horse before.
The most powerful element of the Mastermind program is the unity session. The session, inspired by the renowned American horse trainer Monty Roberts, is developed to build a bond between the participant and the horse. The individual and horse are put in the ring together to work one on one with the sole purpose of building that bond. The foundational element of Roberts' work was his discovery on how body language plays a role when communicating with a horse.
"The unity sessions are so powerful," Edholm said. "It's an opportunity to connect with a 900-pound animal. At the end of the session, if the horse trusts you it will choose you."
Edholm said she has seen powerful results from the sessions.
"I've had people break down and cry in the middle of the unity session," Edholm noted the program provides a safe environment for its participants. "What people tell me afterward about how it impacts their lives is pretty incredible. I've had people call me the week after and say, 'I quit my job. At that moment I realized I was trying to be something I'm not.' "
Because of Horsepower Mastermind's unique nature, Edholm offers the first session free. After the first session, participants have a choice between three different membership options to continue building on leadership and personal development.
"I really want people to come out and see for themselves what we are doing," Edholm said. "Come out, check it out and see if it's something for you."
Edholm and Eddy met and formed Leadership Excursion Co. out of a conversation they had during a horse training session Eddy was conducting in the backyard of a friend.
"We just starting spit-balling ideas," Edholm said. "And started bringing friends out to see if this could be a thing. It's grown since. We've continued to evolve the program based on the clients who come out and it's turned into what it is today."
Eddy, who oversees the horse-related activities, is one of 63 people in the world certified to be a Monty Roberts instructor and uses his gentle method of training and working with horses based on trust.
Edholm worked in the technology industry for over 20 years building programs for large corporations such as Zappos, 7-11 and Fanny Mae. She also worked as a software engineer at Nellis Air Force Base for the Department of Defense.
She also served 15 years as a search and rescue volunteer for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Search and Rescue unit.
"Anything that happened in this valley, we were part of the team that would go out and help," Edholm said. "I learned personally a lot about leadership through my time with search and rescue."
Edholm drew upon her experience and knowledge from the tech industry and serving with Metro when founding Leadership Excursion Co.
"I started Leadership Excursion Co. to get people outside and out of their comfort zones," Edholm said. "And into a space where they can learn and grow."
Bringing like-minded people together to support one another is a passion for Edholm. Before Horsepower mastermind, she organized Spark Women's Leadership Conference.
"It's an opportunity for women to get away for a weekend and focus on themselves," Edholm said. "It also brings women together to support each other.
"We provide access to any outdoor activity you can think of," she continued. "As well as offer a workshop component."
Horsepower Mastermind's monthly membership options include Paint at $74 per month. The Paint membership includes the monthly gathering, directory access, group outings and Leadership Excursion Co. service discounts. The Mustang membership at $99 per month adds two yearly unity sessions and one coaching session. Her Thoroughbred option costs $124 per month adds four yearly unity sessions and two coaching sessions.
The monthly session is on the second Friday of every month. During the winter months, October through April, it is held from 2-4 p.m. As the temperature rises, from May through September, sessions are held in the morning from 8 to 10 a.m. The program can accommodate as many as 40 participants.
A portion of the program's proceeds goes to help Dust Devil Ranch in Cedar City, Utah. The nonprofit organization is a sanctuary for neglected horses and works to rehabilitate and place horses into approved homes.
"Every chance we get we work with these horses," Edholm said. "Because they get as much out of this training as we do."

I'm getting ready to install my six pack setup I received from Herb's Parts and I have a couple of questions.
1: Do I have to install the choke cup under the choke thermostat or do I just bolt it to the manifold?
3: Does anyone have instructions I can print out when I do the install ?
And I'm looking for any tips or tricks you guys have to make this go as easy as possible , I'm also looking for anything I need to keep an eye out for or issues to avoid.
You will be fine,easy install I just snug down the stud bolts. Warning you will never want to go back to a 4 barrel Vac or mechanical outboards?
get the fuel line all together before you tighten it up I used plumbing tape on the threads,I didnt have the cup on mine.
also I did not have the solenoid on mine and I lived in NY and S Carolina no problems.
The fuel lines do not seal on the threads, they seal on the flare, like all flare tube does. Teflon tape can cause trouble the second time you put it together. The bits stay in the female fitting side, then clog the needle and seat. Not really necessary.
Teflon and sealant are not for sealing. If your threads are cut to correct depths and the fittings assembled properly, that is your seal. Teflon and such are lubricants, as is oil.
Stock 6 Pak's ran poorly. That is why in the mid '70's they were very inexpensive to acquire. A very few mods make them great. PM me.
Use a little filter oil when screwing the flare nuts together with the lines....a small amount of soluble lubricant will not harm the engine, or block the carbs.
Share it here, I'm interested as well.
My "original" carbs purchased in the mid 1970's ran flawlessly OOTB. They et and mph a little better with slight tweaking.
The main thing for me, especially with the '69 1/2 carbs was take the plugs out of end carb idle mixture screws & richen them about 1/2 turn & put a screw in the slot so at full throttle on the center carb, the end carbs crack a little bit. The '70 carb end carb jet plates seemed just about right, 2 numbers up in the center & maybe 2 numbers on the squirter. Try the different springs in the end carbs & see what it likes. I had the aluminum manifold, never played with the iron version.
Everything you said other than the screw in the center carb linkage,but thats your choice.However once you get it working right,you'll never go back !
The screw in the linkage was my "fail safe" to get them just cracked. So many of the early stuff would stick then pop open. With a little tweaking 6 Paks were great. Now I'm kicking myself for selling the last one I had.

Camden Market in Camden Town is what draws the most people to the area. The area is well known for its counter-culture, for example, many punk bands in the 1970s started their careers by performing in Camden's concert halls like Dingwalls and Roundhouse. Camden also has a wide variety of shops, some of which sell punk related clothes and shoes. The markets sell everything on the spectrum, from fashion to vintage clothing and souvenirs.
Regent's Canal passes through Camden Town, which has multiple locks. Camden Lock Market is located next to the locks on the main street. By walking along the canal, you can get to Regent's Park and later to Little Venice. You can also make the same trip along the canal by taking the waterbus, like the Regents Canal Waterbus. The journey from Camden to Little Venice takes about 50 minutes.
The Camden area has a large selection of music, and one of the most well-known concert halls is Roundhouse, which along with the music also hosts things such as theatre, dance and cabaret shows.
Camden is located in northern London and the easiest way to get there is via Northern Line and getting off at the Camden Town station.
Camden Market is inside Camden Town, so you should visit both while you're here. London Zoo and Regent's Park are both a short walking distance away.
Camden Town, London
