Dan Thomas, a former Wales under-20s captain, has become the sixth Gloucester player to join Rotherham Titans on a dual-registration deal. The 23-year-old flanker has played 11 times for Gloucester, after making a name for himself with Llanelli and his national age-group team. He goes straight into the Titans’ first team for today’s trip to London Welsh in the British and Irish Cup. Rotherham head to the capital on the back of a 34-17 victory over South Yorkshire rivals Doncaster Knights in the opening round of fixtures last week. “We had a good win and performance against Doncaster,” said Justin Burnell, the Titans head coach who steered London Welsh into the Premiership earlier this decade. “We made 13 changes going into that game and the boys who came in did well; but like anything else we aren’t blessed with a pecking order and we haven’t got first-, second- and third-choice players, we’ve got a squad and that showed. “And it’s not like the boys who came in haven’t played Championship rugby because most of them have and it wasn’t as though they were coming in from cold. “We are also very fortunate to have the Gloucester boys at the moment and most of them will play against London Welsh. “Welsh are the current B&I Cup holders, they had a good win at Munster last week and I would imagine they’d be looking to retain the title. I would also expect them to put out a strong side and we’ll need to perform well if we are going to give ourselves an opportunity.” Doncaster’s game with Munster A has been postponed out of respect for the death of Anthony Foley.

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/joe-cullen-looking-to-deliver-premier-league-status-in-darts-1-8194280
FORMER postman Joe Cullen is looking to deliver in the darts world. The Brighouse darter has broken into the world’s top 30 for the first time and is aiming to achieve renowned Premier League status. He has already earned a spot in the World Series this year and has been rising through the ranks since giving up his career as a postman in 2009. In 2012, Cullen was tipped to be amongst the new breed of young darts stars including current Premier League champion Michael van Gerwen and Michael Smith, who is seventh in the world rankings. Cullen, known as ‘The Rockstar’, is determined to mix it with legendary Phil Taylor and other members of the darts elite, having previously defeated many of them in various tournaments. Cullen beat Taylor in 2010 to earn a place in the last 16 of the John McEvoy Gold Dart Classic in Killarney, and had victories over Dave Chisnall and van Gerwen in the 2014 Players’ Championship. Another former world champion, Raymond van Barneveld, also fell foul of Cullen’s improving skills last year during the European Darts Grand Prix, where an impressive 110.6 average enabled him to win 6-2. “The Premier League is the goal,” he says. “But to get in there by 2018 is probably more realistic, to be honest,” he said. The Premier League began in 2005, featuring seven players, but now involves 10 of the biggest names - the top four in the rankings plus six wild cards - from the top 30 competing on the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) circuit. Darts has recently seen a huge upsurge in popularity recently with the support of sports promoter Barry Hearn, who is Chairman of the PDC. Prize money for the winner of the Premier League is up to £350,000, which as Cullen describes, hasn’t always been the case. “I came into it when it wasn’t so big, the prize money for winning a tournament would be £4,000, but now it can be £10,000 each day’.” Of his start in the game, Cullen says: “When I was about 16, I was playing in local pubs with my dad. To begin with, I didn’t really like the sport to be honest! “I went along with it and played for the sake of it, but then the money started getting bigger” On his personal progression, Cullen appreciates that there has to be an amount of determinism. “I’ve taken darts a lot more seriously this year than I have done previously, and it’s paying off. Obviously with the invitation for the World Series, it is a measure of how far I’ve come.” Cullen plays in the one-day Players Championships on Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd in Barnsley, plus qualifiers for the Grand Slam and World Series Finals on Sunday 23rd. He also participates in the Ladbrokes World Series of Darts Finals event on November 5-6 in Glasgow, and is in the Cash Converters Players Championship Finals (November 25-27 at Butlins Minehead), as well as the William Hill World Championship (Dec 15-Jan 2). Cullen knows he might not have an easy ride to the top, stating “There’s literally no easy games at all. You’ve got to be the best in every single one.”

http://www.fleetwoodtoday.co.uk/sport/fleetwood-town/ftfc-latest/pond-targets-hat-trick-of-clean-sheets-at-den-1-8194007
Fleetwood captain Nathan Pond says keeping Millwall’s front two quiet is a challenge he is relishing in the Lions’ Den. After two wins with clean sheets over the past week, Pond is keen for another shutout in south London. But the experienced centre-half knows it will not be an easy task to keep the dangerous Steve Morison and Lee Gregory out. He said: “We just need to concentrate on our own game really. “Millwall are below us in the table but hey got to the play-off final last season. “They have got some good players, especially the front men. “They have goals in them but we need to keep them quiet, quieten the crowd down and get off to a good start. “I’ve come up against Steve Morison a couple of times. He scored the winner last time we played there. “Lee Gregory is another good player. He is always a fox in the box, so if we keep the front two quiet hopefully that will be job done. “I quite enjoy going there. You get a lot of abuse and it is intimidating, so we have to stick together. It is you against them and that is the way I like it. “Back-to-back clean sheets are not easy in this league. You get put under a lot of pressure but another clean sheet on Saturday will do us nicely.” And Pond is looking upwards after those back-to-back wins lifted Fleetwood into the top half of League One. He said: “We’ve shot right up the table, so if we come back from Millwall with at least a point we’ll see where it takes us. “After a bit of a bad run, we got a draw at home to Sheffield United and then the two victories, which we needed to get us up the table.” The defender praised debutant goalkeeper Alex Cairns for his role in Tuesday’s win at Chesterfield, where he replaced the injured Chris Neal just nine minutes in. Pond said: “Conditions were not the best. It was windy and rainy but the lads dug in well. It was a good battle and a good away win. “Chris took a knock to the head and Alex came in. It is only his second-ever League game and he was superb. “He came out, took a load of crosses and took a lot of pressure off the back four.”

Porno-Abzocke: Vorsicht vor dieser Rechnung Falsche Rechnung: Abzocke mit Porno-Websites Es ist eine beliebte Masche: Rechnungen wegen vermeintlicher Erotik-Angebote im Netz zu verschicken und zu hoffen, dass die Adressaten aus Scham bezahlen, anstatt den Fall publik zu machen. Zur Zeit schwappt mal wieder eine solche Rechnungswelle durchs Land, wie die Verbraucherzentrale Bremen erklärt. In den Schreiben heißt es, man wurde über ein Werbebanner (wahlweise auch über Google oder Facebook) auf ein Angebot "verlinkt". Gemeint ist wohl, man habe etwas angeklickt. Aus diesem Klick leitet der Absender eine Forderung von knapp 50 Euro ab, deren Zahlung man nun erwarte. Zum "Beweis" sind drei Web-Adressen gelistet - allerdings nur in Bruchstücken, wie im folgenden Screenshot zu sehen: Sieht aus wie Betrug, riecht wie Betrug - ist Betrug Absender der Briefe ist ein gewisser James Heilmann, der sein "Unternehmen" wahlweise "Heilmann Online Vertrieb" oder "Real Love" nennt. Beide sitzen laut den Briefen an der selben Adresse in Dortmund. Da beide aber auch nicht im Handelsregister eingetragen sind, ist der Betrugsversuch offensichtlich. Die Verbraucherzentrale weist darauf hin, dass es keinen Grund gibt, diese Rechnung zu bezahlen. Ohne Vertrag ist eine solche Rechnung ungültig. Der Absender müsste schon nachweisen, dass ein solcher Vertrag (etwa über eine Anmeldung des Users auf der Website) zustande kam. Unser Tipp: Wenn Sie Rechnungen bekommen von Ihnen unbekannten Unternehmen bekommen, und Ihnen auch die in Rechnung gestellten Dienste fremd sind, dann informieren Sie sich zunächst im Netz. In den meisten Fällen sind diese Abzocker bereits bekannt. Bleiben Zweifel, sollten Sie bei der Verbraucherzentrale Ihres Bundeslandes nachfragen. So kommen Sie den Betrügern schnell auf die Schliche. Betrug per Mail: So erkennen Sie Phishing PayPal Abzocke: So erkennen Sie Phishing- und Betrugs-E-Mails

Hannover. Seit August 2013 gibt es für alle Kinder vom ersten Geburtstag an einen Rechtsanspruch auf Betreuung in einer Kita oder bei einer Tagesmutter. "Das ist eine riesige Aufgabe, die die Kommunen da zu bewältigen haben", betonte der Sprecher des Niedersächsischen Städte- und Gemeindebundes, Thorsten Bullerdiek. Auch die Zahl der Flüchtlinge sei ein großes zusätzliches Paket. "Letztendlich werden es aber alle Kommunen in Niedersachsen schaffen, jedem Kind mit gesetzlichem Anspruch einen Platz zu garantieren", sagte Bullerdiek. "Wir gehen davon aus, dass es keine Klagewelle geben wird." Haben Eltern zum Wunschtermin keinen Betreuungsplatz bekommen und können deshalb erst später Arbeiten gehen, so haben sie grundsätzlich Anspruch auf Schadenersatz, entschied der Bundesgerichtshof am Donnerstag. Doch muss die verantwortliche Kommune dem Urteil zufolge nur dann zahlen, wenn sie den Mangel mitverschuldet hat. dpa

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/boxing/luke-campbell-boxing-clever-again-after-overcoming-setbacks-1-8193940
After a rocky 2015, Hull’s golden boy Luke Campbell bounced back in style in 2016. Now he is targetting world glory in 2017. Daniel Gregory reports. THE famous Rocky Balboa quote “it ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward” could not be more applicable to Hull’s golden boy Luke Campbell. In 2016, East Yorkshire’s London 2012 gold medallist was floored by defeat and family illness that left him questioning his desire to go on. Campbell suffered a shock defeat to unfancied Frenchman Yvan Mendy, during a time in which he was having to deal with his father’s well-documented battle with cancer. Any defeat for a rising boxer can be damaging, but in true Balboa fashion, Campbell lifted himself off the canvas in 2016, with three wins out of three to put his world title ambitions back on track. “Everything happens for a reason, I think everyone knows I shouldn’t have got in the ring that night, but I did, I lost and here I am now,” Campbell told The Yorkshire Post. “It’s not just me who has experienced a defeat, and I’ve bounced back from it.” If 2015 produced a number of setbacks to the previously smooth transition into the pro ranks from his gold medal exploits at London 2012, then this year has seen him bounce back in style. Starting with a win against Dewsbury’s Gary Sykes and followed up with a solid victory under the radar against Argenis Mendez in Leeds, 2016 culminated in a sickening body shot that ended his bout with Liverpool’s Derry Mathews and with it any doubts over Campbell’s credentials. “I’m delighted with how this year has gone,” said Campbell. “I don’t think people gave me the credit I deserved for beating Mendez, he was probably the most skilful opponent I’ve boxed, but I’m not sure British boxing fans know that much about him. “I’ve had an awful lot on this year. In addition to three big fights, I’ve had the move out to Miami and the new start with a new trainer (Jorge Rubio). “I’ve been away from my family a lot and I’ve had to take a lot of new information on board. I’m feeling good at the minute and I’m getting into a rhythm at the right time in my career.” Many boxing pundits and fans alike predicted a difficult night’s work for Campbell against previous world title challenger Mathews, who has a win and draw against former WBA lightweight champ Anthony Crolla and stoppage wins against Yorkshiremen Tommy Coyle and Curtis Woodhouse on his CV. Campbell’s fourth-round stoppage win surprised a few, but not the Hull man and his team, who planned for an early finish. He added: “The plan was definitely to try and get Derry out of there, while preparing for a hard 12-round fight. “Everybody was saying how tough it was going to be for me and that it was a 50/50 fight, but we were always confident. “There was a definite plan to work the body and I thought I could get him out of there in six, but to do it inside four in that fashion was even better.” If 2016 was the year that Luke Campbell got back on track after spending much of 2015 on the ropes, surely 2017 will be the year he announces himself on the world stage. “I’ll sit down with Eddie (Hearn – promoter) and discuss options,” said Campbell. “There are plenty of options out there for me, but we need to see which one is the best. “I don’t mind which route we take, but I want to win a world title in 2017.” And where better to go and win that world title than in his native Hull? He added: “I’d love to fight for a world title in Hull, that would be a dream come true.” Before such grand ambitions are realised, Campbell would not rule out a domestic dust-up with British champ Scott Cardle, but he doubts the Scot would agree to fight him. “I would love to fight for the British title, but is Scott Cardle going to give me that fight? He wouldn’t want to fight me.”

''İşime duygularımı çok karıştırmam'' Atiker Konyaspor Teknik Direktöre Aykut Kocaman, yarın oynanacak SC Braga maçının önemli olduğunu belirterek, "Puan açısından en uygun şartların olduğu maç gibi görünüyor. Eğer bunu başarırsak, grupta ciddi anlamda hesap yapma şansına sahip olacağız ve özgüven de sağlayacak" dedi. Atiker Konyaspor, UEFA Avrupa ligi H grubunda yarın saat 20.00'da Konya Büyükşehir Belediyesi Stadı'nda Portekiz ekibi SC Braga ile oynayacak. Atiker Konyaspor Teknik Direktöre Aykut Kocaman, oyunca Ali Turan ile birlikte maçın oynanacağı statta basın toplantısı düzenledi. Ali Turan, Braga maçının tarihi bir maçlardan birisi olduğunu belirterek, UEFA'da ilk iki maçta istenilen sonucu alamadıklarını ancak yarın 3 puanla sahadan ayrılmak istediklerini söyledi. Braga takımının da sahaya mutlak galibiyet için çıkacağını hatırlatan Ali Turan, "Braga mutlak galibiyet için sahaya çıkacak. Ancak biz seyircimizin önünde oynayacağız ve iyi bir takıma sahibiz, oturmuş bir takımız. Avrupa liginde tarihinde ilk kez katılan bir takımız ve elde edeceğimiz başarıylada tarihin ilklerini yaşatmak istiyoruz" dedi. AYKUT KOCAMAN: BİR ADIM DAHA ÖNDEYİZ UEFA Avrupa Ligi H grubunda ilk iki maçta istediklerini sonucu alamadıklarını ve bunun nedenini de Atiker Konyaspor'un UEFA tecrübesinin olmamasına bağlayan Teknik Direktör Aykut Kocaman, ilk iki maça oranla SC Braga maçında tecrübe açısından daha iyi konumda ve bir adım daha önde olduklarını söyledi. Gruptaki kağıt üstünde halen şanslarının olduğunu ve Braga maçının da bunu belirleyen bir maç olacağını ifade eden Kocaman, "Puan açısından en uygun şartların olduğu maç gibi görünüyor. Eğer bunu başarırsak, grupta ciddi anlamda hesap yapma şansına sahip olacağız ve özgüvende sağlayacak" dedi. Kocaman tam tersi bir durum olduğunda ise takımın Avrupa Ligi zihin yorgunluğunun yüzde 50 oranında sona ereceğini ve süper lige yöneleceklerini kaydetti. Braga takımının, kendi takımına göre daha seri ve Avrupa Ligi'nde tecrübeli bir takım olduğunu ifade eden Kocaman, "Yarın oynayacak maç her iki takım içinde yol gösterici bir maç olacak. Braga, Shakhtar'a göre de tecrübe acısından bir adım önde. Grupta ikinciliği kovalama acısında da yarın ki maç onlar içinde önemli olacak. Sportif anlamda sert geçecek bir maç olacak. Kendi takımımda sahada A'dan Z'ye, 1'inci dakikadan son dakikaya kadar skor ne olursa olsun kendi bildiğini yapmaya çalışan bir takımımız var. Bundan da kuşkumuz yok" dedi. KOCAMAN'DAN FENERBAHÇE CEVABI Basın mensuplarının adının sık sık Fenerbahçe teknik direktörlüğü için geçmesiyle ilgili soru üzerine Aykut Kocaman, sözlerine Fenerbahçe'nin bugün uçakta yaşadığı olaylar nedeniyle geçmiş olsun dileklerini söyleyerek başladı. Adının sürekli dile getirilmesinin kendi bilgisi dışında gelişen olaylar olduğunu belirten Kocaman, "Ne öyle, ne böyle. Ben bu konularda 33 yıldır futbol hayatımın özellikle 28-29 yılını sürekli insanların gözü önünde geçirdim. İşime duygularımı çok karıştırmam. Dolayısıyla bu şekilde devam edecek. Burada da böyle. Ne öyle ne böyle. Bu benim dışımda gelişen bir durum. Dolayısıyla buna benim ne gurur duyuyorum demem, pek profesyonelliğe, çalışma şartlarına ve düşüncelerime uyan bir şey değil. Bunun dışında profesyonelce kendimi takımına adamış bir şekilde çalışan kişilerden bir tanesiyim" diye konuştu. Yeşil beyazlı ekip, basın toplantısının ardından Kayacık tesislerinde SC Braga maçının son hazırlık çalışmasını yaptığı antrenmanla tamamladı. 19 Ekim 2016, Çarşamba Güncelleme: 18:43

C-27J transport aircraft on chopping block nine months after debut By HEATH DRUZIN | STARS AND STRIPES Published: April 22, 2012 KANDAHAR, Afghanistan -- The C-27J transport aircraft just made its theater debut, but it may be a cameo. Despite a fervent defense by the crews that fly the aircraft and legislators whose states stand to lose jobs from its demise, the Air Force is trying to cut the program just eight months after the twin-propeller mini-cargo plane made its first combat flight. Meanwhile, C-27 crews supporting the 25th Combat Aviation Brigade in Afghanistan are trying to carry out their mission, though they worry the outcome of the debate could mean the closure of their Air National Guard base in Mansfield, Ohio. On Friday morning, a C-27J took off from Kandahar Air Field amid the muted pastels of a crisp desert sunrise. Crossing craggy, sun-baked mountains with barely a village visible, the crew was headed toward a common customer: a remote Special Forces base, where resupply by road is too risky. Onboard were three pallets of wood needed for construction, a load that fills the C-27 but would be impractically small for the much larger C-130, which can haul significantly more. Shortly after the plane descended to about 1,000 feet, the bay doors opened, Master Sgt. Dennis Folk cut a fabric fastener, and the pallets rumbled out of the plane in a cloud of dust before disappearing under billowing canopies. It’s just this kind of drop that proponents say the C-27J is made for — small cargo the aircraft can transport more cheaply than its larger cousin, the C-130, while freeing up CH-47 Chinook helicopters to transport troops to the battlefield, rather than hauling supplies, as they’re often called on to do. The Air Force now says the plane is a luxury it cannot afford in this era of cost-cutting, despite the fact that the government signed a $2 billion contract to produce the planes, which saw their first combat missions in August. The Air Force says it has spent just under $1 billion on the program so far. For now, it looks like the C-27J will make its last combat flight this summer. “The timing of the DoD (cost-cutting) Strategy and the effects of the Budget Control Act drove the timing of this decision,” according to a written reply to Stars and Stripes’ questions sent by Air Force spokeswoman Jennifer Cassidy. “The Air Force remains fully committed to the direct support mission for the United States Army and others going forward.” Much smaller than the C-130, the C-27J is 74.5 feet long with a 94-foot wingspan. It flies with a crew of four and can take 28 passengers without cargo. The planes were designed as a “direct support” aircraft for the Army, to ferry small loads of cargo and troops, often on an emergency basis, and to access bases with runways too small for a C-130. One goal was to free up Chinooks for air assaults, in which troops are dropped into hostile areas far from U.S. bases, often for multiday missions. “Everyone compares [the C-27J] to the ‘130,’ and it’s really not (the right comparison),” said Lt. Col. Todd K. Thomas, squadron commander for the C-27J crews working in Afghanistan. “This mission was really to reduce the number of CH-47 blade hours.” The Air Force does use the C-130 comparison, saying that aircraft can take over the C-27J mission, though they acknowledge the smaller plane can land on shorter runways. A numbers game Cost was a big part of the Air Force’s equation, and there are a lot of disparate numbers on the C-27J floating around. According to figures from the Ohio Air National Guard, whose crews fly the C-27Js, the aircraft cost about $2,100 per hour to fly, as compared with about $7,000 for the C-130 and more than $9,000 for a Chinook. Thomas, citing the Guard report, says the cost savings are clear. “It is obvious, even if you’re not a math major,” he said. The Air Force says per-hour flying costs are closer to $9,000 for the C-27Js. The two are about $200 million apart when estimating lifetime costs for the plane. These facts are hotly disputed, though, both on the ground in Afghanistan, in Internet forums and in Congress, where members from Ohio and Michigan are fighting for the aircraft. Those states, which are slated to host the aircraft, stand to lose hundreds if not thousands of jobs if the program is scrapped. Whatever the costs, though, the Pentagon spent years and hundreds of millions of dollars on a program they apparently didn’t need. “Five years ago,” Cassidy wrote, “the decision to pursue the acquisition of C-27J aircraft was based on well-defined operational requirements developed by the Army and the Air Force, and approved by the Joint Requirements Oversight Council. The C-27J was determined to be an ideal fit for the mission of supporting the Army in their ‘last tactical mile,’ and for a number of intratheater airlift roles as a complement to the Air Force’s C-130 fleet. “In light of reduced intratheater airlift requirements resulting from the new DoD strategic guidance and today’s challenging budget environment, the Air Force made the difficult decision to divest the C-27J.” The mission goes on The mood’s a bit glum among the C-27J crews of the 702nd Expeditionary Airlift Squadron, who refer to the C-27J dispute as “that business in D.C.,” and the airmen who work with the planes vigorously defend their usefulness. “The C-27, it is made absolutely spot-on for direct support, the sensitive mission,” said Thomas. Others raised the question of the efficiency of partially full C-130s taking the small loads the C-27Js currently fly, often on an emergency basis. “You don’t need a C-130 to haul one pallet and six people,” Folk said. For now, though, Thomas’ crews try to stay focused on the daily grind of flying people and supplies around a war zone. “They’ve kept a good attitude,” Thomas said. “That’s a challenge to come in day in and day out and hear all that stuff at home.”

Saturday night may mark a landmark occasion for Sheffield Steelers’ captain Jonathan Phillips, but he is determined not to be distracted from the task in hand. Fife Flyers’ arrival at Sheffield Arena this weekend will be notable for three things. Firstly, the Steelers will celebrate last year’s Elite League title success through the time-honoured tradition of raising their championship banner to the rafters before face-off. Secondly, Saturday night will mark Phillips’s 627th appearance in a Steelers’ jersey, taking him above club legend Ron Shudra and up to second in the all-time list with only his close friend and team-mate for 10 years, Jason Hewitt, ahead of him. But for the 34-year-old Welshman, convinced to make the switch from hometown Cardiff Devils to South Yorkshire by former coach Dave Matsos back in 2006, Saturday night is all about the simple fact that there is a hockey game to be won against the Flyers that will concern him the most. The banner-raising along with a deserved and no-doubt prominent acknowledgement of his own personal achievement will all go down very well, but Phillips and his team-mates are purely focused on doing what is required in order for them to return next year to raise another championship banner which, if achieved, would be their third in a row. “It’s definitely an achievement I’m proud of,” said Phillips. “To play for a club like Sheffield for so long is fantastic. It’s the biggest club in the country so to have the chance to play as many games as I have for them is a massive honour. “To be honest, we don’t see all the banner-raising as being a distraction. Obviously it will be great to see it raised and have our achievements from the previous season recognised. But we all know that that particular trophy is done and dusted now and the focus is all about this season and trying to make sure we can raise another banner next year. “It won’t distract us at all.” Hewitt, who after a short retirement is back in the game with Hull Pirates in the English Premier League, attributes Phillips’s longevity at the Steelers – and in the sport generally – to him being the “ultimate professional.” He acknowledges and is happy for his place at the top of the Steelers’ appearance list to go to his former team-mate, something that will happen in all likelihood sometime early next season. “I don’t see any reason why he won’t break my record and if he does there’s nobody I would rather it be than him,” said Hewitt. “He just looks after himself so well and is the ultimate professional. He does all the little things right. He’s had a lot of injuries but because he looks after himself so well he gets back to playing quicker than most people. “Last season he had to have hernia surgery but he was back after something like two weeks – not everybody can do that.” As for Phillips – who has been handed a testimonial season by the club – the only number that will concern him this weekend are the four on offer in terms of points in a double-header against the Flyers which sees the Steelers head to Scotland for an immediate rematch tomorrow. His Steelers career has seen a number of low points, but it is the numerous highs – most notably lifting four league titles – that help convince him that there is no need to think of hanging up his skates anytime soon. “I’ve never once thought about leaving the game and packing up,” he added. “I’ve always said that I’ll play for as long as I possibly can. “For me, a big part of my game is my speed and as long as I’ve got my speed I don’t see any reason why I can’t play and right now I feel just as quick as I was when I first came up here all those years ago. “When I first came here, I never planned anything out. Under Dave Matsos, Sheffield were kind of rebuilding at the time and I just instantly loved the city, the club –everything about it really. “Everything had the right feeling about it and you had that sense that they wanted to get back to winning trophies which was exactly what I wanted to do, so it was a good fit.” Todd Dutiaume’s Fife will arrive in South Yorkshire facing a Steelers team looking to rebound from their first league defeat last Sunday against Cardiff – who they had beaten the previous evening in the Challenge Cup to confirm their progression from the group phase. The Flyers themselves are looking to bounce back after losing out twice to Braehead Clan last weekend, the first defeat ending their already-slim hopes of qualifying from Group A in the Challenge Cup. The Steelers have waited until Saturday night to raise their championship banner so they can share the special occasion with defenceman Russ Moyer, part of the title-winning team last season before moving to Kirkcaldy in the summer.

http://www.newsletter.co.uk/news/jenny-goes-from-the-football-pitch-to-the-assembly-1-7640898
One of Northern Ireland’s newest Assembly members, Lagan Valley MLA Jenny Palmer, is still finding her feet in the male dominated world of Stormont politics. However, the Lisburn woman, who will be known to many as the politician who defied orders to ‘put party before people’ when she was a DUP councillor, never harboured ambitions to sit in Stormont, rather her childhood dreams centred on her love of sport. So just how did one of the first women to represent Northern Ireland in football, volleyball, and netball, come to be one of the most well-known faces in the political arena? Born and bred in a working class Protestant area of Lisburn, Jenny grew up with eight brothers and sisters, and as the second eldest, she spent much of her younger life looking after her siblings. “I grew up in a big family and there was a lot of responsibility on my shoulders, even as a child,” explained Jenny. And it was this sense of responsibility that inspired her first career ambition. “I wanted to be a policewoman,” she continued. “I remember going to the Blue Lamp discos which were run by the RUC and the Bridge Youth Club. It was the only outlet for young people in the 60s. “I always had the ambition to join the RUC. It was the connection with the community that appealed to me. But I couldn’t join because of the height restriction. You had to be 5’ 4” and I was 5’ 2.5” so I had a way to go. “I did everything I could and I even tried to stretch myself every day but there was no way I was going to achieve it.” With the realisation that she was never going to be able to join the RUC, Jenny was making a name for herself in the sporting arena. What started off as a kick about with her siblings and friends became a passion for her as she excelled as a football player, as well as proving herself as a both a netball and volleyball player. “I was establishing myself in netball, volleyball, and football representing Northern Ireland at all three sports,” explained Jenny. “I played for Merton United Football team, which was based in Belfast at Ormeau Park. “I progressed to the national side and played for Northern Ireland in the sweepers position. When I was about 19 we played our first international match against the Republic of Ireland. My recollection was that Northern Ireland hadn’t played the Republic before and we beat them 2:1.” Jenny was injured during a match in England but, unaware of the extent of the injury, she kept playing. “During my first UEFA Championship match in Spain, our goalkeeper was injured and because of my injury I was put into nets. There was no-one else.” Sport broadened Jenny’s horizons and introduced her to people she would never have otherwise met. “I come from a working class, Protestant background, very steeped in the tradition of Orangeism,” she continued. “Sport helped me to meet people I would never have come across. We had training in St Dominic’s on the Falls Road. I remember going in and seeing holy relics that I had never seen before. “That’s where I picked up my first words of Gaelic. I had some fun, and they weren’t very good words,” she joked. Whilst she was training on the Falls Road, Jenny began working on the opposite side of the divide, taking up her first job after leaving school on the Shankill Road. “My first job after leaving school was on the Shankill Road as a leisure attendant at a new stadium that had opened,” she revealed. “I remember there were two full sized snooker tables and only special club members could use them. One day a man barged through and I told him he couldn’t go in. He pulled a gun on me. “I travelled up and down on a moped bike, which was stolen from outside the stadium. I decided it was time to look for another job.” When Jenny was 21 she married her childhood sweetheart, John Palmer, whose family ran a well-known store in Lisburn, “I met John when I was 16,” Jenny explained. “I was working part time in the kitchen in Lisburn Golf Club and he was delivering produce. “He asked me out and we went to Bangor on a Sunday afternoon. My mother was adamant I take my wee brother as a chaperone. John sent him to buy ice-cream so that we could have some time alone. “I was attracted to his sense of humour. And he was very good looking as well.” The couple married in 1981 and Jenny began working in the Palmer family shop doing the accounts and clerical work. Jenny continued to play football after she was married but soon motherhood took over. “I came back from a competition on the Mainland,” she explained. “My sister picked my up off the boat and I told her I was as sick as a dog and didn’t know what was wrong. I had no inkling I was pregnant. I thought ‘I can’t be pregnant, I’m playing football’.” John Jr came along in 1983, followed by David in 1985 and Hannah in 1990. Family life took over and still Jenny never imagined that she would one day be entering the political arena, first as a DUP councillor representing Lisburn South and later as an MLA for the Ulster Unionist Party. “My father was an Ulster Unionist but he was never that political,” explained Jenny. “I didn’t have a great deal of interest in politics. I was more interested in sport. “It was only later when I became and Orangewoman that I was approached and asked if I would like to represent the Ulster Unionists. At the time there was a tug of war between the Ulster Unionists and Jeffrey Donalson MP. After Jeffrey removed himself from the Ulster Unionist Party, we all followed suit. “I wanted to contribute something back into society and I thought I would apply for a position as a lay magistrate. Jeffrey Donaldson told me not to apply because it would rule me out of running for the council. I told him I didn’t want to run for council but I gave it some thought, spoke to John and put my name forward. I never looked back. I loved it. I loved working for people, and serving people is something I really relish.” During her time on Lisburn City Council, Jenny served as chairman of the Environmental Services Committee, and the Economic Development Committee. She also served as chairman of the Lagan Valley Regional Park and on the board of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive. It was in this last role that she found herself at odds with her Party and led to her publicly leaving the DUP, before joining the Ulster Unionist Party, where she was selected to run in this year’s Assembly election. The conflict arose when Jenny claimed she was “bullied” by a DUP special adviser into changing her vote at a Housing Executive Board meeting, in line with the wishes of the Party, something she refused to do. The matter came to a head when the BBC aired an interview with Jenny, during which she broke down in tears when she revealed the torment she had gone through over the situation. Following the release of a report at the Assembly and before a disciplinary hearing by the DUP, Jenny, and her husband John, who serves as a councillor in Lisburn, took the decision to resign from the Party and, after some consideration, they both decided to join the Ulster Unionist Party. Something Jenny said at the time was like a “homecoming” for the couple. “Other Parties courted us but really there was only one home for us because of the background in the family,” continued Jenny. “If it hadn’t been for the Ulster Unionists in the Council I would never have got through the last year. I felt I was amongst friends. I started to laugh and joke again and felt I was getting my confidence back.” Jenny, together with her Party colleague Robbie Butler, ran in the May Assembly elections for the Ulster Unionist Party and they were delighted to secure two seats for the Party in Lagan Valley. “I believe there is a sea change in Lagan Valley, specifically that people were fed up with the DUP,” added Jenny. “I knew support for the UUP was strong on the ground and it was fantastic to get two in. The Ulster Unionist Party didn’t have a voice in Lagan Valley for a long time but now that has changed.”

Le Parti communiste chinois (PCC) a trouvé un usage très particulier au Big Data. Le gouvernement prévoit de collecter massivement les données de ses citoyens afin de leur donner une note évaluant à quel degré ils sont dignes de confiance. Conséquence, les mieux notés auront un accès facilité aux services, quand les mauvais élèves seront sanctionnés. La liste des punitions est détaillée dans un document du gouvernement chinois datant du mois dernier, évoqué par le Washington Post. Interdiction de voyager en première classe, voire de partir à l'étranger, impossibilité d'envoyer ses enfants dans les meilleures écoles ou d'accéder à une promotion, les sanctions prévues peuvent être sévères. Du commentaire sur la politique du PCC au feu rouge grillé Prévu pour 2020, ce dispositif dénommé "Système de crédit social" doit collecter les données des 700 millions d'internautes chinois. Du respect du code de la route aux discours tenus sur les réseaux, tout élément pouvant décrire le comportement d'un citoyen est comptabilisé. Il suffit donc d'un feu rouge grillé pour voir sa note s'abaisser. Les entreprises, elles aussi, sont concernées. En ne respectant pas certaines règles morales et/ou légales, elles peuvent se voir interdire l'émission d'obligations par exemple. Pékin présente ce dispositif comme un nouveau moyen de lutte contre les fraudes, monnaie courante dans le pays. Au-delà de cet enjeu, le gouvernement s'offre un moyen de pression inquiétant sur sa population et pourrait basculer vers un État totalitaire. De quoi attirer les hackers Reste que le Système de crédit social pourrait avoir quelques difficultés à voir le jour. Si un système de score est déjà mis en place dans certains pays pour l'emprunt bancaire, notamment en Allemagne et aux États-Unis, l'étendre à l'ensemble des activités d'un individu est un tout autre défi. Des projets pilotes sont déjà en cours, impliquant huit entreprises privées dont Sesame Credit, propriété du géant de l'e-commerce chinois Alibaba. Le site de rencontre Baihe encourage d'ailleurs ses utilisateurs à fournir leur score Sesame pour avoir un profil plus attractif. Mais outre les problèmes moraux et juridiques qu'il pose, un tel système pourrait vite devenir la cible des pirates informatiques. Interrogé par le Washington Post, William Glass, analyste chez FireEye (entreprise de cybersécurité), en est persuadé : "Il y a un marché énorme pour ce genre de dispositif, et aussitôt que le système sera installé, cela incitera grandement les cybercriminels et certains acteurs soutenus par l'État à pénétrer à l'intérieur, soit pour voler des informations, soit les altérer."

A man who caused the death of two teenage boys and left two others with life-changing disabilities after driving “like a lunatic” has been jailed for seven and a half years. Thomas McMeekin, 23, was handed the lengthy sentence despite also being left severely disabled in the horror crash. George Wharton and Rhys Baker, both aged 14, were killed after McMeekin lost control of his Peugeot 206 on Gelderd Road, Morley, and struck a tree. A 15-year-old boy was left with brain injuries. His 14 year-old friend is know tetraplegic and will require lifetime care. McMeekin, of Bruntcliffe Road, Morley, is now also tetraplegic after being thrown from the vehicle during the collision which took place on March 7 last year. McMeekin pleaded guilty to two offences of causing death by dangerous driving and two of causing serious injury by dangerous driving at a hearing in July. Sentencing was adjourned on that occasion in order to obtain information from the Prison Service to ensure appropriate facilities are available to care for McMeekin in custody. Jailing McMeekin today, The Recorder of Leeds, Judge Peter Collier, QC, said: “By your dangerous driving you took the lives of two children and you seriously injured two others and you caused serious injuries to yourself. “Through your actions, five families have been irreparably damaged. The judge added: “They (the victims) were unable to appreciate the risks that you ran as you diced with death on a daily basis.” “I am satisfied that such regret as you have is very much focused on yourself rather than others.” McMeekin had a history of bad driving, including driving with children in his car and showing off. Unemployed McMeekin would often drive teenagers around in his car if they paid petrol money. The fatal collision occurred after McMeekin had picked the teenagers up. Jonathan Sharp, prosecuting, described at the earlier hearing how a woman was driving her car along Gelderd Road when she saw McMeekin drive up at speed behind her shortly before the crash. The prosecutor said: “She saw, to her horror, that he was not looking at the road at all. Instead he was talking to his front seat passenger.” McMeekin saw the vehicle in front of him at the last moment and turned sharply to avoid a collision. He then lost control of the car and collided with a tree as the car spun through 180 degrees. Witnesses who stopped to help came across horrific scenes. Others described McMeekin as driving like an “idiot” and said his driving had been “aggressive.” McMeekin had acquired the car five days before the incident after his mother financed the purchase. One of the injured boys described after the crash how McMeekin “doesn’t follow road rules.” Mr Sharp said: “He describes him as doing wheel-spins and handbrake turns on public roads, driving aggressively off from traffic lights and trying to reach 100mph before having to stop again.” Three days before the incident he was seen driving in the car park of Birstall Showcase cinemas so dangerously that the vehicle lifted onto two wheels. Three other passengers were in the car at the time. A day later he drove at excessive speed as he raced another vehicle, which left his female passenger distressed. Two nights later, March 6, McMeekin had six passengers in his car at once as he drove them to a party. Mr Sharp said: “A witness described him as ‘driving like a lunatic’. He was travelling down a single-carriageway road when he performed a hand-brake turn into the mouth of a junction where another witness was just about to cross. “She was understandably upset. She assessed his behaviour as showing off but also said, presciently, ‘he’s going to kill someone driving like that.’” “The defendant’s mother had got to hear about his driving behaviour and was threatening to take the car back from him.” Mr Sharp read statements on behalf of relatives of the four victims in which they described the emotional turmoil they had suffered through McMeekin’s actions. George Wharton’s mother, Sharon Hull, described how she often had to pass McMeekin’s home. She said: “I have seen him sat at the front door in the sun. To pass where he lives every day is agony for me.” Anna Mackenzie, for McMeekin, said her client had “profound regrets” at the way he behaved. She said: “He will have to bear that responsibility for the rest of his life. His injuries will be a life-long reminder of his behaviour.”

Knittlingen. Manfred Durban starb in der Nacht zum Freitag im Alter von 74 Jahren, wie die Familie des Musikers aus Knittlingen in Baden-Württemberg bestätigte. Sein einstiger Bandkollege Olaf Malolepski äußerte sich tief betroffen. „Die Nachricht hat mich sehr getroffen. Wir fühlen mit der Familie. Lieber Manfred, durch die Musik der Flippers bist du unsterblich. Wir vermissen dich“, sagte Malolepski in einem Statement. Durban sei friedlich eingeschlafen, verlautete aus seinem persönlichen Umfeld. Das Schlagertrio Flippers mit den Sängern Olaf Malolepski, Bernd Hengst sowie Drummer Manfred Durban hatte Ende 2010 seine Abschiedstournee gegeben und sich dann nach mehr als 40 Jahren aufgelöst. Zu den bekanntesten Hits der Band gehört der Song „Weine nicht, kleine Eva“ und „Rote Sonne von Barbados“. Das Trio verkaufte Millionen Tonträger. Auf Youtube erinnern Fans an die Lieder der Band. „Schade, dass es die Band nicht mehr gibt“, schreibt ein Youtube-Nutzer. Von dpa/RND/wer

From: Tony Armitage, Fulwith Road, Harrogate. LEEDS Bradford Airport is regularly criticised for its poor facilities and operational failures – criticisms which with I agree. The LBA development director has just announced that works costing £1m have been commenced for improvements to the terminal front area, parts of the check-in facilities and the departure and arrivals areas. These works will take until summer 2017 to complete. Passengers must be grateful for any improvements but, with a throughput of 3.5 million passengers, I question what improvements can be made at a budget of 28.5p per passenger over the next 10 months? From: Clive Bolsover, Main Street, West Stockwith, Doncaster. HS2 is necessary because by going faster more traffic can be carried. However if it is routed into Euston it will be much less use than if it went to St Pancras. The London establishment have never understood that people wish to bypass London – you need to live in the North to understand that.

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/stage-reviews-underneath-a-magical-moon-york-theatre-royal-1-8194436
There has been much re-imagining of classic texts of late, notably fresh takes on Charlotte Bronte’s Villette and John Webster’s The Duchess of Malfi at West Yorkshire Playhouse. Now Leeds-based children’s theatre company tutti frutti offers a new version of the Peter Pan story as told by Mike Kenny. His adaptation of The Railway Children gave co-producers York Theatre Royal – where Underneath a Magical Moon premieres – one of its biggest successes. Now his Peter Pan proves a glorious, riotous and sunny hour’s entertainment aided greatly by Wendy Harris’s inventive direction, a versatile cast (take a bow Grace Lancaster, Jack Brett and Chris Draper), Kate Bunce’s adaptable setting and composer Ivan Stott’s jolly songs. The young audience sat entranced as Wendy took charge (“It’s my house, I make the rules”) and told the tale of the boy who wouldn’t grow up. All the elements of the Peter Pan story are present and correct – flying, Captain Hook, pirates, the ‘clockodile’ (the hand-munching crocodile who’s swallowed a clock), Tinkerbell and scene-stealing mermaids who have the best song of the show. As you’d expect from Kenny, serious issues touching on children’s lives are part of the story without big flashing signs announcing their presence. Naughty Tinkerbell is cast as a ‘mean girl’, the bully who sits at the back of the school bus doing her nails, while the role of mothers and the importance of family are touched on too. Underneath a Magical Moon is, well, magical. One of the ways tutti frutti invites feedback is to send in a drawing – pass me the crayons so I can draw a picture of a happy smiling critic. To October 22 then touring. Steve Pratt - 4/5 The Season Ticket -York Theatre Royal Jonathan Tulloch’s novel about two teenage boys from Gateshead and the adventures their love of Newcastle United drives them to has already been filmed as Purely Belter. Now Lee Mattinson’s play of the book arrives at York Theatre Royal in a Northern Stage and Pilot Theatre production. Despite the duo’s quest to raise enough money to buy two season tickets to see their beloved team, this isn’t a play about football but two underprivileged kids finding their feet in life despite everything bad that life throws at them. There’s plenty of humour to be mined from the situation but the dark side is never far away whether it’s a violent absent father or ridiculous authority figures like a headmaster or store security guard. Director Katie Posner’s rowdy, raucous production could do with trimming and Yorkshire audiences may need subtitles to help them acclimatise to the north-east accents, but she achieves her intention to make the audience laugh and cry at a play she describes as “bursting with heart”. There is fine work from all the cast particularly from the two young and talented leading actors – Niek Versteeg as the more philosophical Gerry and Will Graham as best mate Sewell. Stand out too is Victoria Elliott’s mother Dee who thankfully doesn’t veer into caricature while Joe Caffrey’s father is truly terrifying. To October 15. Steve Pratt - 4/5

http://www.latribune.fr/opinions/tribunes/combattre-l-uniformite-des-contenus-sur-internet-610525.html
Les grands acteurs du numérique se sont développés avec une vision globale, et la capacité de mettre à disposition du plus grand nombre des plateformes suffisamment riches pour satisfaire les besoins de tous les utilisateurs quelle que soit leur origine géographique. Dans un glissement tellement massif qu'on peine encore à bien le cerner, cette formidable promesse initiale a ouvert l'ère du « One Size Fits All » : un même canal et... les mêmes contenus pour tous. Cette tendance lourde à la standardisation a des conséquences elles-mêmes très lourdes pour la diversité des formes et des contenus et finalement pour la vitalité de la création et de la culture. Avant que la terre ne soit totalement brûlée, il est urgent d'allumer des contre-feux. Un plat unique à la mode US En soi, il n'y a rien de nouveau, les GAFA ne sont que la déclinaison numérique d'une globalisation qui a pris son essor dès les années 80-90. De Star Wars à Justin Bieber, tel un implacable rouleau compresseur, ces contenus culturels globalisés censés satisfaire les attentes de tous les publics, ont conquis le monde entier. Et le consommateur a vite pris goût à ce plat unique à la mode US qu'on s'est mis à lui servir à toutes les sauces. On rétorquera qu'Internet n'est jamais qu'un gigantesque supermarché, dans lequel - si on est curieux et qu'on prend le temps -, on est sûr de trouver, à tout moment, un contenu nouveau, différent, intéressant. Après tout, personne n'est obligé de s'en tenir aux têtes de gondoles, on peut fouiller, fouiner. C'est vrai, Internet s'est constitué comme cet espace de libre-service, comme un monde propice à la sérendipité, pour peu qu'on accepte de naviguer de lien en lien, et se laisser guider par le hasard. Approche algorithmique Pourtant deux constats s'imposent. D'une part, l'offre de contenus est tellement foisonnante que l'internaute se trouve confronté au dilemme de l'hyper choix sous contrainte de temps. Des algorithmes vont tenter de l'aider dans sa prise de décision. D'autre part, au cœur même de la Longue Traine, la multitude de contenus s'organise selon la règle implacable de la notoriété (sous forme d'étoiles et de classement en nombre de vues) qui vaut aux plus nombreux, les moins connus, souvent porteurs d'une vision différente du monde et parfois de grande qualité, d'être relégués dans des limbes que même le plus aventureux des internautes a peu l'occasion d'explorer. Résultat ? Dans ce combat éternel entre David et Goliath, à ce jour, les géants ont gagné. La consommation de masse de produits culturels s'est amplifiée. Des plateformes comme Netflix ont cassé les codes et généré de nouveau modes de consommation « disruptant » au passage les règles de fonctionnement des services de vidéo à la demande. Vous passez une nuit entière à regarder l'intégralité de la dernière saison de House of Cards et pendant ce temps, l'approche algorithmique fait le reste en analysant vos choix et vos modes de consommation pour en déduire vos goûts et adapter en permanence son offre, pourvu qu'elle soit générique. Quelle place pour des produits plus exigeants ? On sait aujourd'hui l'impact, à long terme, de ce type de processus sur la production de contenus et la création. On connaît bien, notamment, le cycle pervers de l'économie du blockbuster, déclinée par toutes les majors du cinéma : des produits de qualité standardisée, sans aspérité, destinés à plaire au plus grand nombre, modèlent le goût du spectateur et créent une appétence permanente pour des produits similaires. Dès lors : comment préserver la possibilité de voir émerger de nouveaux contenus et ainsi assurer, à terme, un renouvellement minimum ? Il faut bien nourrir la bête... Et surtout : dans cette course à la rentabilisation d'investissements et de coûts de production toujours plus importants, quelle place pour des produits plus exigeants ? La standardisation des goûts à l'échelle de la planète laisse peu de place à la création indépendante et aux nouvelles formes d'expression. Le rêve d'universel qu'Internet portait à l'origine a finalement viré au cauchemar de l'uniforme. Il est temps d'organiser les moyens de subsistance des exceptions culturelles, de redonner de l'air et de l'espace à la culture de niche dans sa diversité, dans sa marginalité, dans sa confidentialité. Il le faut pour lutter contre l'uniformisation du monde et pour assurer la vitalité et donc l'avenir d'un Internet des contenus et pas seulement des calculs. La création comme un théâtre d'opérations Il est temps de donner à ces voix multiples qui peinent de plus en plus à être entendues, les moyens de toucher ces publics curieux de découvrir d'autres formes, d'autres regards, d'autres points de vue. Les moyens c'est-à-dire les outils, les espaces et aussi les rémunérations correctes et justes sans lesquelles la survie tourne vite court. Pour qu'Internet ne soit pas l'arme de destruction massive de la culture qu'il est en train de devenir, il faut accepter de concevoir la création comme un théâtre d'opérations où chacun doit pouvoir se positionner. L'enjeu de ce combat n'est pas de faire tomber les géants mais de trouver les moyens de faire exister à côté d'eux, en bonne intelligence, une offre alternative et multiple qui entre en résonance avec les désirs, les sensibilités et les individualités plurielles qui constituent les peuples. L'ennemi c'est le nivellement et l'uniformisation. Ce sont eux qui, à terme, si on ne réagit pas, entraîneront un appauvrissement et un dessèchement généralisés dont l'offre massive fera aussi les frais. C'est en cela que la création culturelle est un enjeu de civilisation et qu'elle mérite qu'on se batte pour elle. Par Nicolas d'Hueppe, CEO de Alchimie

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen (Thomson Reuters ONE) - * First Phase 2 study will evaluate prime-boost vaccine approach in elderly populationCOPENHAGEN, Denmark, October 18, 2016 - Bavarian Nordic A/S (OMX: BAVA, OTC:BVNRY) today announced the initiation of the first Phase 2 clinical study ofMVA-BN® RSV, its novel, broad spectrum, vaccine candidate against RSV(respiratory syncytial virus).The study, which is being conducted in USA, will enrol 400 healthy subjects,aged 55 or older who will be randomized into five groups of 80 subjects each.Subjects will receive two administrations four weeks apart of either low or highdoses of MVA-BN RSV and/or placebo, in order to identify the optimal dose andschedule for future studies. More information on the trial can be found athttp://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02873286.Top-line results from the study are anticipated around mid-2017 and will provideimportant information for a subsequent Phase 2b field efficacy study, which isplanned for initiation later in 2017.Paul Chaplin, President & Chief Executive Officer of Bavarian Nordic, said:"Advancing our RSV program into Phase 2 is an important milestone for BavarianNordic in our efforts to develop a vaccine which potentially offers broadprotection against the virus. RSV remains an area of high unmet medical needwith no approved vaccine available. This Phase 2 study represents an essentialstep in the successful development of any vaccine; to ensure we establish anideal dose and dosing regimen, prior to exploring this candidate in largerstudies. In this study we will evaluate both a single vaccination, as well as aprime-boost approach that will determine which regime induces prolonged immuneresponses against RSV "MVA-BN RSV represents a new vaccine approach specifically designed to targetfive different RSV proteins to ensure a broad immune response against both RSV subtypes (A & B). Extensive preclinical studies have shown that MVA-BN RSVinduces a balanced immune response comprised of both antibodies and T cells, ina similar fashion to the natural response to an RSV infection. These resultswere confirmed in a Phase 1 study in healthy adults, reported in May 2016, whichshowed that MVA-BN RSV significantly boosted antibodies and T cells against bothRSV subtypes. The vaccine was well tolerated, with no unexpected or seriousadverse reactions. The vast majority of events represented local and systemicreactions typical for vaccines.About RSVRespiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, is the most common cause of bronchiolitisand pneumonia in infants and a significant cause of respiratory illness in olderadults, resulting in a high number of hospitalizations. RSV infections areresponsible each year for a similar number of deaths as the flu in children upto age 14, as well as in the elderly population. It is estimated that more than64 million people are infected globally each year, yet unlike the flu, there isno vaccine to prevent RSV, presenting a large unmet medical need and marketopportunity.About Bavarian NordicBavarian Nordic is a fully integrated biotechnology company focused on thedevelopment, manufacturing and commercialization of cancer immunotherapies andvaccines for infectious diseases, based on the Company's live virus vaccineplatform. Through long-standing collaborations, including a collaboration withthe U.S. government, Bavarian Nordic has developed a portfolio of vaccines forinfectious diseases, including the non-replicating smallpox vaccine, IMVAMUNE®,which is stockpiled for emergency use by the United States and othergovernments.

'F.Bahçe büyük takım ve zorlu bir rakip' İngiltere Premier Lig ekiplerinden Manchester United'ın teknik direktörü Jose Mourinho, Fenerbahçe karşısında güçlü ve iyi bir oyun ortaya koyamamaları halinde şanslarının olmayacağını söyledi. Portekizli teknik adam, UEFA Avrupa Ligi A Grubu'nda yarın Fenerbahçe ile yapacakları maç öncesinde kulübün tesislerinde basın toplantısı düzenledi. Fenerbahçe'nin sezon sonunda olması gereken yerde olacağını düşündüğünü belirten Mourinho, "Türkiye ligi sürekli iyiye gidiyor. İstanbul dışındaki bazı takımlar yavaş yavaş başa oynuyorlar. Fenerbahçe'nin teknik direktörüne baktığım zaman tecrübeli bir isim, futbolcularına baktığım zaman kaliteli bir takım görüyorum. Fenerbahçe büyük bir takım ve zorlu bir rakip. Yarın kazanma şansı olan bir takımla karşılaşacağız. Eğer güçlü ve iyi bir oyun ortaya koyamazsak, şansımız olmaz. Şansımızın olması için iyi bir oyun ortaya koymalıyız." diye konuştu. Liverpool, Fenerbahçe ve Chelsea ile aynı hafta içinde maç yaptıklarına ve fikstürün zorluğuna dikkati çeken Portekizli teknik adam, "Son 5 maçtır yenilmiyoruz. 3 galibiyet, 2 beraberliğimiz var. Sadece iyi oyuncularımız yok, aynı zamanda hepsi iyi arkadaş. Bizim için zor bir haftaydı. Pazartesi günü Liverpool ile deplasmanda oynadık. Yarın Fenerbahçe maçı var, onlar pazar günü sahasında oynadı. Hafta sonunda Chelsea ile karşılaşacağız. Farklı maçlarda farklı taktiklerimiz oluyor." ifadelerini kullandı. Portekizli teknik adam ligde son üç maça yedek başlayan Rooney ile ilgili bir soruya, "Yarın takımda kimlerin olacağını size söyleyemem. Rooney psikolojik ve fiziksel olarak iyi durumda. Yarın bizimle olacak ama ilk 11'de başlar mı onu bilemiyorum." yanıtını verdi. Sezon başında transfer edilen ancak sakatlığı nedeniyle düzenli forma giyemeyen Ermeni orta saha oyuncusu Henrih Mhitaryan'ın iyileştiğini ve takımdaki yerini alabileceğini kaydeden Mourinho, İsveçli yıldız İbrahimovic'ile ilgili bir soru üzerine de, "Performansından çok mutluyum. 5-6 yıl sonra aynı takımda çalışmak beni çok mutlu ediyor. Diğer arkadaşlarına yardım ediyor. Takımın ondan yararlanabileceğini düşünüyorum." dedi. Mourinho, Chelsea'yi çalıştırdığı dönemde bazı futbolcularının dokunulmaz olduğunu söylediğinin hatırlatılması üzerine, "11 yıl önceydi. Açık ara en iyi takımdı diyebilirim. O zaman durum farklıydı. Şu anda dokunulmaz bir futbolcu olduğunu söyleyemem. Bizim için önemli olan taraftara saygı" değerlendirmesinde bulundu. Basın toplantısına katılan 21 yaşındaki sol bek Luke Shaw da eski takım arkadaşı Robin van Persie ile ilgili bir soruyu, "Çok önemli bir futbolcu. Kalitesinin farkındayız. Onunla sadece 1 yıl birlikte oynayabildim. Sadece o değil, rakibimizde o kalitede olan başka futbolcular da var." şeklinde yanıtladı. 19 Ekim 2016, Çarşamba Güncelleme: 18:18

TWO Sheffield men who carried out a street robbery in which a woman suffered a broken nose and fractured cheekbone have been jailed for a total of almost ten years. Sheffield Crown Court heard how Aleksandr Ivanov, 26, punched a woman to the floor in York Street in Sheffield city centre on April 12 before he and Kyle Probin, 23, made off with a bag containing £15 worth of shopping. Probin was jailed for four-and-a-half-years and Ivanov was jailed for five years and four months. Both defendants, of Beaumont Road North, Sheffield, had pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing. The victim, who is aged in her thirties, had returned to Sheffield Train station Station just minutes earlier and was making her way through the city when she was struck without warning. PC Mark Wilkinson of South Yorkshire Police, said: “This was a particularly cowardly attack in which the victim was struck without word or warning, causing her to suffer severe physical and emotional trauma. “I hope the sentence sounds a clear message to anyone thinking of committing crime on the streets of Sheffield, as it will not be tolerated.”

Bremen. Weder das Unternehmen in Stuttgart noch der Bremer Senat wollten dies zunächst am Freitag bestätigen und verwiesen auf eine Pressekonferenz am kommenden Mittwoch in Bremen. Dann sollen laut Borgward die "nächsten Schritte" für den europäischen Markt verkündet werden. Nach Informationen des "Weser-Kuriers" sollen in Bremen jährlich bis zu 10 000 Borgward-Fahrzeuge gefertigt werden, die rein elektrisch fahren. Als Standort werde Bremerhaven favorisiert, wo ein Werk auf einer Fläche von 10 000 Quadratmetern entstehen soll. Laut Radio Bremen sollen die fertigen Fahrzeugteile aus China zum Werk verschifft und dort zusammengebaut werden. Borgward gehörte einst zu den bekanntesten Autoherstellern Deutschlands und ging 1961 Pleite. Erst in diesem Jahr wurde der Autoverkauf wieder aufgenommen. Borgward-Hauptaktionär ist der chinesische Lastwagenbauer Foton. Im heutigen Daimler-Werk in Bremen- Sebaldsbrück liefen bis Anfang der 1960er Jahre jährlich bis zu 100 000 Borgward-Fahrzeuge vom Band. dpa

http://www.citypages.com/music/throwback-minneapolis-power-pop-band-private-interests-go-public-with-debut-ep/397839941
In the age of Apple, it’s easy for fancy digital music production software to overshadow the visceral impact of a first recorded take. The raw nature of recording in analog is its own aesthetic, with all the griminess, imperfections, and noise unearthing beauty in the murk. Instead of perfectly mixed frequencies and timed beats, there’s an unmatched tenacity. Minneapolis power-pop band Private Interests propel at a machine-gun clip over high-speed beats and firestarting guitar solos, making their '70s-inspired take on “spy rock 'n' roll” sound both old and new at once. No computers were involved in the making of their debut EP, Only For a Moment, out now on Forged Artifacts. “I like recording live. I feel like there’s an honesty to it, and there’s just a warmer quality,” bassist Trevor Engelbrektson says ahead of his band's cassette-release party Friday at the Eagles Club in Minneapolis. “You have to perform your song right, otherwise you can’t fix it. It makes your band tighter.” Private Interests began playing together in the fall of 2015, after Mystery Date frontman Johnny Eggerman (vocals, guitar) met Cameron Soojian (vocals, lead guitar) at Minneapolis DIY venue Secret Service earlier that year. “I wanted to do a mod-revival band like the Jam, and I was getting people together and I saw Cam’s band Thee Rugs and I was like, ‘Holy shit, this guy is good at guitar,’” Eggerman says. “We were working on stuff for a while and not really finding a rhythm section that would stick.” When the pair brought songs they were working on to Damien Tank (drums), he said he'd join the band on one condition: That Engelbrektson, whom Tank had played with since high school (most recently in soul group Southside Desire), audition to flesh out the group’s fast-paced rhythms. “We definitely knew we wanted to play fast,” Soojian says. “That was one thing we all agreed on. Damien allows us to do that a lot because we can only really go as fast as our drummer. I think a lot of the speed from the band comes from that.” “At the heart of it, we’d just take the barebones of a song, and we would just play it together and try different stuff until it starts to click,” Eggerman adds. The band recorded many of their songs live with the assistance of Eliot Gordon at his all-analog Minneapolis studio, while choosing to mix the tape with Mike Wisti. “There wasn’t that much isolation at all,” Soojian says of the recording process. “In studios, sometimes you have the amps in a separate room, but one amp was in the kitchen, one amp was in the living room, Damien was drumming in the living room, so we recorded in the whole house which was pretty cool.” The resulting six-track EP wears its influences on its sleeve. Only for a Moment reimagines the guitar-driven pop of late-'70s punk bands like the Jam, Buzzcocks, or the Records. Additionally, intricate, Thin Lizzy-style guitar harmonies are filtered through Private Interest’s “nervous, itchy energy." Song "Only For a Moment” grapples with the inescapable force of time, while the Ramones-esque “I Need You” chugs along as Soojian repetedly pleads "I need you to back away" to a lover he can’t escape. “I don’t even think about what I write lyrics about, personally I just write them,” Eggerman says, noting that his songwriting generally speaks to the “omnipresent monotony of life.” The Only for a Moment cover art evokes the band’s interest in spies, noir, and Russia, where Eggerman recently returned from a trip. “I like how rough [the album photos] look, it looks very tactile,” says Tank, who designed the EP’s artwork by scouring through old photo archives. “Just how they’re kind of fucked-up looking, like an accidental punk-rock aesthetic that’s already there. It’s like happy tourists on a diplomatic mission in a very difficult time between the U.S. and U.S.S.R. It looks like old family photos, but it was a very serious trip.” The photos bring an uneasy sense of nostalgia, much like the songs across Only for a Moment do. On the EP, Private Interests sound as though they're on the verge of collapse, as if the paranoia that defined the Cold War has finally been set to an analog soundtrack.

Créatrice d'une application permettant aux spectateurs de faire un arrêt sur image, un ralenti, ou un zoom sur une action lors d'une rencontre sportive, Vogo vient de signer un accord stratégique avec la Caisse d'Épargne Languedoc-Roussillon (183 agences, 2 Mds € de nouveaux crédits en 2015). La banque régionale, partenaire du Montpellier Hérault Rugby (MHR) et du Montpellier Handball (MHB), va aider la start-up montpelliéraine à déployer son produit auprès des deux clubs. Cet accord intervient alors que Vogo, après avoir testé et diffusé son produit auprès d'une trentaine de clubs en France et à l'étranger, cherche à l'installer de façon pérenne. Vogo en phase d'accélération Start-up créée en 2013 à Montpellier, Vogo place actuellement tous ses efforts dans le faire-savoir autour de son produit afin de le mettre à disposition d'un maximum de fédérations et de clubs en amont des rencontres sportives, en l'intégrant par exemple à leur propre application maison. La location de la solution, ainsi que la visibilité apportée à des acteurs ayant une politique de sponsoring tels que la Caisse d'Épargne LR, figurent parmi les sources de revenus de Vogo. "Nous avions déjà collaboré avec ces deux clubs pour tester le concept de Vogosport dans leur stade, indique Christophe Carniel, fondateur de Vogo. Il nous fallait aussi travailler pour que le dispositif soit totalement autorisé par les organisateurs, tels que les les fédérations ou les ligues sportives, ou par des diffuseurs tels que BeIn ou Canal + (dont Vogo capte les images dans les stades, NDLR). Après avoir progressé sur ces aspects dans le contexte du MHB et des MHR, nous pouvons nous ouvrir à d'autres sports." "Au vu du contexte parfois morose, la Caisse d'Épargne LR veut se positionner en soutien de l'éducation et de la culture, où nous rangeons le sport, explique Christine Fabresse, présidente du directoire de la banque. À travers le soutien que nous apportons depuis plusieurs années aux clubs, cette politique de sponsoring crée de la valeur sur le territoire. Elle permet aussi d'exprimer plusieurs de nos priorités, telles que le soutien aux entreprises innovantes et la capacité à offrir à nos clients des services innovants et personnalisés." Déjà 5 brevets mondiaux Présents lors de cette signature, Patrice Canayer, l'entraîneur du MHB, a vanté les initiatives qui visent à utiliser le sport comme un élément identifiant la nouvelle région Occitanie ("avec une superficie comparable à la Hollande, et donc une taille internationale, nous devons démontrer notre capacité à porter des projets de dimension internationale"), tandis que Robins Tchale-Watchou, joueur du MHR, a souligné l'intérêt médical de Vogo ("en revoyant les actions et donc l'angle des impacts avant de faire des IRM, nous pouvons progresser dans la prévention de la traumatologie"). Pour sa part, Christophe Carniel indique que Vogo a déjà déposé cinq brevets pour accélérer, par ailleurs, son développement à l'international. À terme, la start-up se prépare à une évolution de son business model : "Nous allons rajouter du contenu à l'application, comme des statistiques ou des images en plus de celles des diffuseurs, et surtout, nous allons développer des services par micro-paiement pour faciliter le e-commerce pendant le temps du match (restauration, merchandising, etc.)", annonce le fondateur de Vogo.

http://www.getreading.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/unfriendly-fire-trump-clinton-trade-12061358
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have traded sharp barbs and brutal put-downs at a supposedly light-hearted New York charity gala, with many in the well-heeled crowd turning on the Republican nominee midway through his remarks and showering him with jeers. The annual white-tie Alfred E Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner - often the last time the US presidential nominees share a stage before election day - is traditionally a time when campaign hostilities are set aside. But the night after their final presidential debate, Mr Trump, who had drawn big laughs earlier in the speech, appeared to lose the room as he repeatedly dug in with caustic swipes at Democrat Mrs Clinton, drawing rare boos at an event meant to raise money for impoverished children throughout New York. He appeared to straddle the line when he talked about how "listening to Hillary rattle on and rattle on" had made him better appreciate his former nemesis Rosie O'Donnell. But he then seemed to cross it when he referred to her as "corrupt" during a lengthy riff on the FBI's investigation into her use of a private email server as US secretary of state. "Hillary is so corrupt she got kicked off the Watergate Commission. How corrupt do you have to be to get kicked off the Watergate Commission? Pretty corrupt," he said to loud boos and at least one call demanding he get off the stage. He then almost appeared to segue into the standard attack lines of his rally speeches, setting aside jokes to bring up material contained in hacked Clinton campaign emails. "Hillary believes that it's vital to deceive the people by having one public policy and a totally different policy in private," he said to growing jeers. "Here she is tonight, in public, pretending not to hate Catholics." Mrs Clinton also veered into personal digs, making one joke in which she said the Statue of Liberty, for most Americans, represented a symbol of hope for immigrants. "Donald looks at the Statue of Liberty and sees a '4'," she said. "Maybe a '5' if she loses the torch and tablet and changes her hair." Mr Trump and Mrs Clinton sat one seat apart for the evening, with New York's Cardinal Timothy Dolan acting as the only buffer. And when they entered and took their seats, they did not greet each other or make eye contact, though they did shake hands at the conclusion of the roast. Cardinal Dolan later called his seat "the iciest place on the planet". Most eyes were on Mr Trump, who infamously glowered through Barack Obama's jokes at his expense during the 2011 White House Correspondents Dinner and is not known for being self-deprecating. But some of his jokes landed well, drawing laughs from both the crowd and Mrs Clinton. His biggest laughs came as he talked about Michelle Obama getting rave reviews for a recent speech. "They think she's absolutely great. My wife Melania gives the exact same speech, and people get on her case," he said to whoops and laughs. And some of his attack lines flashed a sense of humour that has been mostly absent from the gruelling campaign. Mrs Clinton was the first one to laugh when Mr Trump joked that she had bumped into him earlier in the night "and she very simply said 'Pardon me"' - an unsubtle reference to the Republican nominee's frequent declarations that his opponent should go to jail. Mrs Clinton, meanwhile, was more self-deprecating than Mr Trump, joking that she had taken a break from her "usual nap schedule" to attend and suggesting that the audience should be pleased she was not charging her usual fee for speaking in front of potential donors. But she also landed some digs at Mr Trump, a few of which drew scattered jeers. She said she understood why he was wary of teleprompters because they can be difficult to follow and "I'm sure it's even harder when you're translating from the original Russian". The dinner is named after the former New York governor, who was the first Catholic to receive a major party nomination for president when he unsuccessfully ran in 1928. And fittingly for an event named after a man nicknamed "The Happy Warrior", the occasion has produced dozens of memorable presidential jokes - and sincere moments of goodwill that have remained largely absent from the 2016 campaign. "I can't wish my opponent luck," John McCain said in 2008, turning towards Mr Obama, "but I do wish him well". Meanwhile, figures show both White House contenders have been spending furiously at the November 8 election looms. Defying his notorious stinginess, Mr Trump more than doubled his campaign spending last month compared with August, burning through about 70 million dollars (£57m) as his standing in polls and among fellow Republicans dropped. And Mrs Clinton spent even more, almost 83 million dollars (£68m). New finance reports filed with the Federal Election Commission outlined their dramatically different approaches to the quest for the White House. Mr Trump, while putting more money than ever into advertising, spent a fraction of the 66 million dollars Mrs Clinton poured into media buys. Her payroll topped 800 people, coming in as her second-highest expense of the month, about 5.5 million dollars (£4.5m). Mr Trump paid about 350 employees and consultants. He has outsourced most of his on-the-ground voter contact to the Republican Party. The New York billionaire property mogul has bragged until recently about his low-cost campaign and dismissed the need for television ads and polling services. But in September, he paid 23 million dollars (£18.8m) for commercials.

van Persie: Çok özel bir maç olacak Eski takımı Manchester United’a karşı forma giyecek olan Fenerbahçe'nin Hollandalı yıldızı Robin van Persie, “Benim için çok özel bir an, çok özel bir maç olacak” dedi.

By Doug Livingston Beacon Journal staff writer About the survey AP Fact Check: Trump, Clinton and their debate claims Kasich dismisses Trump claim that election is rigged Video: Dem activist bragged about disrupting Trump rallies • Not sure what local state legislature and U.S. Congress races apply to you? We help you find the right one with this guide Compilation of local races for state legislature, U.S. Congress Summit County executive candidates share many of the same opinions at debate Presidential debate: Trump refuses to say he will accept election results Who won last night’s presidential debate? Read what Akron-area independents had to say This election, it’s not just the economy and jobs candidates are campaigning on. “The opioid and heroin overdose epidemic flooding our communities has developed into a pressing impediment to job security and the standard of living Ohio residents deserve,” said state Rep. Anthony Devitis, a Republican from Green. Devitis views the heroin crisis as a threat to Summit County’s economic livelihood. “The core of the problem is addiction,” he said, promising “more extensive and focused rehabilitation program” if re-elected. His opponent, Mogadore Councilman Bobby McDowall, couldn’t agree more. “Every community in Ohio has been impacted by this crisis. People are dying,” he said. Along with educating youth and making the opioid antidote naloxone widely available, McDowall said: “We also need to recognize that addiction is a disease, not a character flaw or personal shortcoming. We must provide better treatment options to those who are suffering from an addiction. Anyone who wants to get better should be able to get into a treatment program promptly. The 36th Ohio House district, a string of Akron suburbs that stretches from Portage Lakes to Cuyahoga Falls, isn’t the only corner of the county battling with addiction, a central issue this year as heroin and pain pills laced with drugs strong enough to sedate elephants are killing humans by the hundreds. A Beacon Journal survey of candidates seeking office in Columbus and Washington, D.C., shows a parallel spike in those concerned about overdose deaths in Summit County. Along with discussions about improving education, making health care affordable and jump starting the economy, more than a third of the 18 local candidates who responded to the survey singled out the opioid epidemic. Drug problem Joining Devitis and McDowall in pledging to address the opioid epidemic were two Republicans (Ohio Rep. Kristin Roegner of Hudson and Ohio Senate candidate Jonathan Schulz of Tallmadge) and three Democrats (state Rep. Greta Johnson of Akron, Congresswoman Marcia Fudge of Warrensville Heights and retired police commander Roy Rich, who is challenging U.S. Rep. Bob Gibbs in Ohio’s sprawling 7th congressional district). Roegner said the heroin epidemic is “gaining momentum” in Ohio. She vowed to continue bipartisan efforts to expand access to the life-saving opioid antidote naloxone (or Narcan) and to support legislation like the Good Samaritan Law, which went into effect last month after receiving unanimous support in the Ohio House. Her Democratic opponent, Hudson Councilman Casey Weinstein, named education as Ohio’s top problem. He criticized the state for shifting public school funding to profit-driven charter school companies. Schulz, a 30-year-old father of two, said: “It will take a multipronged approach to battle [the opioid epidemic], including the balance of rehabilitation versus prison time, funding programs in our communities that work against the spread of heroin and the creation of a drug education program in our middle and high schools, which is currently nonexistent.” His challenger, Vernon Sykes of Akron, said boosting access to early childhood education and college affordability could “maximize potential” for generations of Ohioans, helping them to prepare for jobs and “make better personal choices like being drug free.” In Congress, U.S. Rep. Fudge has proposed the Breaking Addiction Act and supported the Treat Act, each expanding drug treatment options. Johnson said if re-elected to the statehouse she would push leaders to declare a state of emergency, provide more funding and propose a special joint committee to explore solutions. Tough on trade Three candidates — a Republican, a Democrat and a Green party member — are going after unfair trade. “We need to prevent multinational corporations from outsourcing jobs overseas,” said Democratic U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan, who also pushed for tax credits and loans for small businesses. “In addition,” said Ryan, a longtime trade critic, “we need to end the unfair practice of currency manipulation, which has cost the United States millions of jobs.” “A good start would be to repeal the North American Free Trade Agreement, Central American Free Trade Agreement and the other disastrous trade agreements that our elected officials wrongly passed,” said Andrew Jarvi, a Green party candidate from Youngstown who, along with Democrat Michael Wager, seeks to unseat U.S. Rep. Dave Joyce. Joyce deviated from the big-business wing of the Republican Party, which has historically supported open trade. He said flat wages and rising health care costs are squeezing the middle. Along with advocating infrastructure spending, Joyce attacked China, saying, “our manufacturing base is eroding because of bad trade deals and China’s currency manipulation.” Joyce, a Trump supporter agreed, with Ryan, a top Clinton surrogate. “We need to end these bad trade deals and get tough with China,” Joyce said.

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen The Arc is the first wearable haptic device for gaming that alerts gamers to threats and other players using their sense of touch (firmenpresse) - SEATTLE, WA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/18/16 -- Today, launched the Arc -- a wearable haptic device that gives gamers a sixth sense in the game by alerting them of nearby danger. The Arc technology can help users react to other players more quickly, anticipate surprise attacks and become more competitive in some of the biggest multiplayer games around. Worn low around the neck, the Arc is embedded with tactile actuators that alert you of threats, providing a deeper and more intuitive awareness of the surroundings. By varying the frequency and intensity of the haptic signals, the Arc gives an immediate sense of range and bearing to help people react more quickly to events around them. The device is controlled via Bluetooth by the OmniWear mobile app, which uses machine vision to interpret the user interface of the game on the screen and translate this information into tactile signals perceived by the player. Together, the system provides a second set of eyes watching the game and warning players of incoming threats. "Modern games require you to keep track of so many things -- the radar, the position of your teammates, your health and the actual gameplay," said OmniWear Haptics founder and CEO Ehren Brav. "With the Arc, you can offload some of this visual information to an untapped sensory channel: your sense of touch. This communicates information in a minimally-invasive way that doesn't further burden your eyes or ears. Gaming while wearing the Arc is like having a wingman who watches the radar for you and warns you of incoming threats." Available for advance purchase today for $150 on Kickstarter () and shipping in the fall of 2017, the Arc and its companion iOS and Android apps support Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and League of Legends. Developers will also be able to add support for their own applications using the Arc SDK, and can directly integrate the device into a game. OmniWear supporters will receive the lightweight, ergonomic and wireless OmniWear Arc device, a mount to set up the phone on a screen and a USB cable charger, in addition to the apps for Counter-Strike and League of Legends. For gamers, the Arc provides multiple benefits, including: Faster reaction time: People can react more quickly to their sense of touch than sight and sound in complex environments, so with the haptic cues and intuitive sense of direction the Arc provides, users can act faster when making their next move. Less distraction: By offloading information from the game's visual UI to the sense of touch, attention is freed to focus on the core gameplay. Deeper immersion: For developers, haptics enhances immersion, particularly in vehicle simulation and survival-horror games, to produce a richer experience and keep players in the game -- seeing, hearing and feeling everything around them. Better teamwork: Gamers can gain better situational awareness, including knowledge of teammate locations and health status, making them more effective in cooperative multiplayer games. "Gaming is an industry that demands its players be hyperaware of their surroundings and their competitors," said Brav. "The gaming environment is a natural place to apply haptics for augmenting situational awareness. We're continuing to learn about integrating tactile feedback into other applications where situational awareness is paramount, such as industrial safety, sports and vehicle operation. Our vision is to make the sense of touch a primary channel for communicating information." Incubated by the Seattle-based Invention Science Fund (ISF), OmniWear Haptics was founded to explore how people can perceive their surroundings through their sense of touch. The concept started when ISF was asked to research new ways to prevent concussions in football. One idea was to provide players a tactile warning in their helmets of impending hits. Although ISF has not yet commercialized this original application, similar thinking led to experiments in a number of different areas. Very promising results using first-person shooter video game simulations led to the birth of OmniWear Haptics as a company. "While ISF's technologies have led to several spin-out companies and products," said Casey Tegreene, head of ISF, "this is our first foray into gaming. And, beyond the multi-billion dollar gaming industry, we see an even bigger opportunity for haptics in markets that rely on clear and quick communication for safety and strategy, such as sports and the military. OmniWear is capitalizing on this potential: an intuitive and effective way to augment situational awareness." OmniWear Haptics is focused on changing how people perceive their surroundings, using their sense of touch. Based in Seattle, the team at OmniWear Haptics believes haptics will be a central component of human-computer interaction and will be used in multiple industries for communication, especially when sight or hearing is compromised. The OmniWear Arc is the first wearable haptic device for gaming that provides users with a sixth sense of their surroundings, augmenting their situational awareness by using tactile warnings to alert them to threats and other players.

Lüneburg. Nach dem Vorfall am Donnerstagabend verschwand der Kostümierte. Die von dem jungen Mann alarmierte Polizei konnte den Clown nicht finden, sagte Polizeisprecherin Antje Freudenberg. "Die Polizei sieht in dem Verhalten der als Clown verkleideten Täter keinen lustigen Dumme-Jungen-Streich", betonte Freudenberg. "Die Begegnung mit einem dieser Täter kann bei einem Opfer massive Ängste auslösen." Die Polizei sollte bei solchen Vorfällen umgehend informiert werden. In den vergangenen Tagen waren bundesweit mehrfach solche Clowns gesichtet worden, am Donnerstagabend auch auf Sylt. Die Täter erschrecken und bedrohen Passanten, zum Teil sind sie bewaffnet. In den USA registrieren die Behörden schon seit zwei Jahren entsprechende Vorfälle mit Horror-Clowns. dpa

By Laurie Kellman Associated Press WASHINGTON: Mike Pence said Sunday he and Donald Trump will abide by “the will of the American people” on Election Day, and suggested that Trump’s claim of a “rigged” election stems from his belief the media is ganging up on him. “We will absolutely accept the results of the election,” Pence said in television interviews. He said Trump’s complaint, articulated from the campaign stage and across Twitter but without evidence, reflects fatigue with “the obvious bias in the national media. That’s where the sense of a rigged election goes here.” Not long after Pence said that, Trump partly undermined his comments. “The election is absolutely being rigged by the dishonest and distorted media pushing Crooked Hillary — but also at many polling places,” Trump tweeted. “SAD.” Pence’s words were the latest attempt by Trump’s surrogates to explain that some things the GOP presidential nominee has said and tweeted are not what he meant. Much of that cleanup duty has fallen to Pence little more than three weeks before the Nov. 8 vote. Trump is struggling to shift the focus away from mounting accusations that he sexually assaulted women in ways similar to what he is recorded describing on a recently released video. Trump says all of the accusations are fabricated. Several of Trump’s unfounded claims — such as the one Saturday that Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton was on drugs at the most recent debate and his call for drug testing before the next — also overshadowed the release over the weekend of more emails hacked from accounts of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta. Some showed the campaign worrying whether Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., might endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders in the party’s primary, and wrestling with how to respond to revelations about Clinton’s private email use. The emails also show aides lining up materials to respond to fresh accusations from a woman who accused Bill Clinton of raping her decades ago. The former president denied the accusation, which was never adjudicated by a criminal court. Amid the intensity, Trump reiterated this weekend that a conspiracy is responsible for the FBI declining to prosecute Clinton for mingling private and official business on a homebrew email server so that she might compete in a fraudulent election. “Hillary Clinton should have been prosecuted and should be in jail. Instead she is running for president in what looks like a rigged election,” Trump tweeted to his 12 million followers on Saturday. Threatening to jail a political opponent and fueling public distrust of a popular election — to explain his loss, should that happen — was a striking breach of faith in American democracy. He has repeatedly claimed, without offering evidence, that election fraud is a serious problem and encouraged his mostly white supporters to “go and watch” polling places in certain areas to make sure things are “on the up and up.” It was left to Pence and another Trump surrogate, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, to explain on national television what their own candidate meant. “When he talks about a rigged election, he’s not talking about the fact that it’s going to be rigged at the polls,” Giuliani said. “What he’s talking about is that 80 percent to 85 percent of the media is against him.” Pence, at a campaign event last Tuesday, waved away a woman’s call for a revolution if Clinton wins. By Sunday he was saying explicitly: “We’ll accept the will of the American people.” The Indiana governor also distanced himself from Trump on a pair of other issues. Pence acknowledged that evidence points to Russia being behind the hacking of Democratic emails. “I think there’s more and more evidence that implicates Russia and there should be serious consequences,” he said. He also refused to join Trump’s call for Clinton to be drug tested before Wednesday’s third and final presidential debate.

When they bought it there were holes in the roof and every time it rained water cascaded down the walls. The carpet was so thick with dregs it had to be taken up with a spade and the pub was facing a bankruptcy sale. “People used to come to buy tickets for the waterfall and then find themselves under one in the bar,” said D Mark Thompson, who after more than a decade’s hard work restoring the 13th century Green Dragon Inn at Hardraw near Hawes, is calling time. The pub, together with England’s highest single drop waterfall, Hardraw Force, a visitor centre, campsite and 5.5 hectares of parkland - home to the Hardraw Brass band Festival and Hardraw Gathering - have gone on the market for £1.5m. The pub, which he bought for £375,000 in 2001, went on sale on its own in 2014, but Mr Thompson says “reluctantly” he has realised it made sense to put the whole site up. One motivation has been he and his partner Yvonne Lovatt’s ill health. Mr Thompson had a heart attack last May - but still insisted on driving to the doctors - while Ms Lovatt lives with leukaemia. “You need youth in a place this big,” says Mr Thompson, who is 60 in March and has run four different Dales pubs since 1979. “I thought 10 years ago I would be carried out of here in a box, but you have to bow to the inevitable and take a pragmatic view.” The business takes around £500,000 a year, but there could be scope for more: “I think with the right operators you could nearly double that. It wants to be somebody imaginative - you are buying into a dream. “There’s a nice cottage and a 15 acre back garden with the highest waterfall in England. “It is a completely different way of life. I do all the books - Yvonne - I take my hat off to her - does the overseeing of the pub. It is really her baby. “I’d like someone who doesn’t fit in with the flow - an eccentric - who can carry on the weave of the loom with their own creativity. There’s history, music, literature - Nature at the back - it’s a place for all seasons and all walks of life.” The buyer will have colourful footsteps to follow: “Three years ago we held an Irish weekend. Naturally I ended up dancing on the tables in the bar parlour. “Somehow someone photographed it but I thought no more until I received a copy of the Irish Post and yes, there I was in full flow, a tabloid table dancer:‘A romping session on Saturday night and the infectiously live sound saw D Mark Thompson, host at the Green Dragon, dancing Sean-nos on top of the table.’ The weekend is now a yearly event.” Mr Thompson nurtured the Brass Band Festival and says he will ensure via a contract that it can take place the second Sunday of September “in perpetuity.” But he insists there is no desperate rush, and there’s a plan B, involving a downstairs double bedroom. “When I was a young guy there was Bessie Fletcher at the Blue Lion, East Witton and Mrs Bush at the Abbey Inn, Byland. Mrs Bush wouldn’t open till 9.30pm and then all she would have in were a couple of farmers and the local policeman. “Bessie didn’t even have a sign up. The point is they reduced it down to the level of trade they wanted and felt comfortable with. “We will just cut our clothes accordingly.” JMW Turner stayed at the inn in July 1816, while painting the gorge into which Hardraw Force plunges from almost 100 feet high. The waterfall was already a well-known attraction in Turner’s time, with contemporaries such as Wordsworth also visiting. Visitors have to go through the pub and pay to see the waterfall, which was used as a location for the 1991 movie, Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves, which starred Kevin Costner. Hardraw Force featured in a scene when Maid Marian catches Robin Hood bathing naked under a waterfall . The inn is on the market with Skipton chartered surveyors Westlake & Co. It is available as a whole or three lots.

Have you ever wanted to know what it’s like for law enforcement officers working in the Midlands. Spike TV’s “COPS” is giving viewers a chance this weekend. The Richland County Sheriff’s Department announced their deputies will be featured on a new episode 8 p.m. Saturday. “COPS,” produced by Langley Productions and broadcast on Spike TV, is an unscripted reality show that follows around real law enforcement officers and documents their interactions with the public.

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen Three of Five Buildings Sell at Completion Amid High Demand for New Industrial Buildings in Los Angeles (firmenpresse) - LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/17/16 -- , a leading Southern California real estate investment and development firm, broke ground last year on Magellan Gateway in El Monte, Calif., following an eight-year drought of industrial development in the infill Los Angeles market. Demand was high, and the supply of new distribution space non-existent. is now complete, and the five-building, 501,270-square-foot industrial project is quickly fulfilling the need for new distribution space in the San Gabriel Valley. "The high level of buyer interest in Magellan Gateway affirms the quality of the project we were able to deliver against the backdrop of a supply-constrained market," said , co-founder of The Magellan Group. "The entire development team is to be credited for the success of Magellan Gateway, and we're grateful to the City of El Monte for sharing in our vision to bring such an outstanding project to the market," added Staley. Magellan Gateway, which received occupancy certificates in August, has already sold three buildings to The Gill Corporation, Jans Investment and Management, and Dream Home Temple City Boulevard, LLC. The Magellan Group was represented in all three transactions by Cushman & Wakefield's Erik Larson, Robin Dodson, John Minervini and Chris Tolles. Magellan Gateway was developed with the flexibility to accommodate multiple buyers or tenants in each building, though strong demand from single-building users is the predominant sales driver. Buildings feature 26- to 30-foot clear heights, dock-high and grade-level loading, concrete driveways and truck courts, T5 warehouse lighting, flexible column spacing, finished ground floor office spaces and ample mezzanine space. Designed by HPA Architecture and constructed by Millie & Severson, the project is in application for LEED Sustainable Facility certification. Principal Real Estate Investors provided joint venture equity for the development; construction financing was provided by U.S. Bank. Magellan Gateway is a Class A, institutional quality industrial development, and the delivery of the project was timely given the limited amount of supply in the area. Industrial vacancy rates in the San Gabriel Valley dipped to 1.6% in the first quarter of 2016, a nine-year low according to Cushman & Wakefield. Magellan has sold nearly $250 million in industrial and self-storage properties over the past 18 months, realizing significant gains from its acquisition, development and repositioning strategies. This activity included the $140 million sale of two self-storage portfolios to Sovran Self Storage earlier this year. The Magellan Group was founded in 1990 by Kevin Staley and Martin Slusser.

Switzerland and Norway are considering boosting cooperation in development aid, human rights, security and peace promotion. Foreign Minister Didier Burkhalter says both countries share a strong commitment to humanitarian policy while cooperating in migration and diplomatic representation. Both countries are members of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), but not of the European Union. Burkhalter, as well as Economics Minister Johann Schneider-Ammann and Energy Minister Doris Leuthard, met the visiting Norwegian Foreign Minister Børge Brende for talks on a broad range of policy issues on Monday. “Against the backdrop of United Nations Day, both foreign ministers expressed their great satisfaction at their countries’ constructive collaboration in multilateral forums,” said a statement by the Swiss authorities. The meeting also covered Switzerland’s immigration policy towards EU citizens, Britain’s decision to leave the 28-nation bloc and an international climate accord – including a reduction of carbon dioxide, and energy issues.

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/opinion/yp-letters-wise-words-were-criticism-of-those-who-lack-patriotism-1-8194398
From: Nick Martinek, Briarlyn Road, Huddersfield. JOHN Davies (The Yorkshire Post, October 14) quotes the beginning of Samuel Johnson’s aphorism that “patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel”, as though Dr Johnson was criticising patriotism. That is to turn Dr Johnson’s observation on its head. To Dr Johnson patriotism was natural, normal and good. So he berated scoundrels precisely because they were not patriotic, but only turned to a (false) patriotism as their last refuge in a belated attempt to disguise their villainy. More directly, he was saying that a scoundrel can be recognised by his lack of patriotism. Unfortunately a lack of patriotism is fashionable nowadays particularly in our establishment. This lack can be most clearly seen in those who think that handing the direction of our country’s economy and democracy over to a bunch of 27 unelected Eurocrats in Brussels is a smart move. From: DM Loxley, Hartoft, Pickering. MEMBERS of the UK Parliament are elected under the auspices of the Representation of the People Act. They are there to represent the wishes of the electorate, all the electorate not merely those who voted for a particular political party. The June 2016 referendum gave a clear requirement to our representatives and they are required through the Act which put them there to honour that requirement. If MPs choose to make up the rules to suit themselves as they go along, then come back Guy Fawkes – all is forgiven! From: Ian Oglesby, Stamford Bridge, York. IN response to Don Burslam’s letter (The Yorkshire Post, October 17), many MPs are wrong to oppose the views of the electorate and the referendum result. Instead of being oppressed by EU regulations, we now have wider horizons. It is not surprising that Brussels will put hurdles in the way of the milk cow which has broken free, and is about to find out who its true friends are. From: David Craggs, Shafton Gate, Goldthorpe. IF there is the slightest doubt that an ‘out’ vote wouldn’t be in the interest of the UK and its people, shouldn’t we at least have a rethink? Isn’t the issue far too important to leave to a Government which appears not to have much idea where it is going?

The Yorkshire Residential Property Awards celebrated the best in class and the man who helped city living happen. Variety, the children’s charity, is still counting the proceeds from last night’s prestigious Yorkshire Residential Property Awards and organisers hope it will top last year’s total. Whatever the final figure for the annual fundraising event, everyone agreed that the evening added up to a sensational celebration of the region’s property talent. TV presenter Jonnie Irwin, best known for fronting Escape to the Country and A Place in the Sun, was the celebrity host for the evening and he heaped praise on the sector for its hard work, determination and flair. The 2016 winners are as follows: Best Agency, Linley & Simpson estate and letting agents for their innovation, dynamism, commitment to customer service and giving back to the community. The runners-up were Morgans, Leeds, and Carter Jonas. Best Design Project went to IconInc for The Edge student accommodation in Leeds for use of technology and the design that revealed a great deal of thought to the end user. Runners-up were Calls Architecture for Ryder House and Coda for The Glassworks in Sheffield. Best Innovation Project went to Strata Homes for its Flaunt development in Leeds for taking a risk and bringing townhouses to those committed to city living by developing Otter Island, a derelict site on the outer edge of the city centre. Runners-up were IconInc for The Edge and Edward Architecture for its creative approach to a housing regeneration scheme in Heaton, Bradford. Best Large Development was awarded to PJ Livesey for its sensitive transformation of the former Terry’s chocolate factory in York into apartments. Judges said the first phase showed a regard for the building’s heritage while creating apartments with great style. The runners-up were Watson Batty, Henry Boot and Leeds City Council for Wharfedale View elderly care apartments in Yeadon and Redrow Homes for South Bank in Newton Kyme. Best Regeneration project went to Keepmoat Homes and Leeds City Council for the £198m Leeds Housing Regeneration project, which saw the refurbishing of 1,296 council homes and the building of 388 new council homes. Judges praised the energy efficiency and energy generating elements for households that will benefit greatly from reduced fuel bills. Runners-up in this category were PJ Livesey for The Residence and Strata Homes for Flaunt. Housebuilder of the Year was won by Hull-based Beal Homes for the quality of their properties, their attention to detail and their customer service. Runners-up were Redrow Homes and Barratt Homes. Best Planning Practice was awarded to Quod North for their strong track record, impressive client list and excellent reputation for deep knowledge of planning issues in the residential sector. The runners-up were NLP and ID Planning. Best Small Development went to Mulgrave Properties for its Oxenby Place development in Easingwold for its efforts to make every property look different. The runners-up were Wharfedale Homes for Linkfoot Lane, Helmsley, and Fountainhead Ventures for its conversion of properties at Askham Park, Askham Richard. The Best Marketing Campaign winner was New Home Finder. Judges said that the start-up web-based business had raised its profile and persuaded top housebuilders to become part of its mission to become the premier property portal for those hunting for newly-built homes. They added that the digital drive to engage new users was very impressive. Runners-up were PJ Livesey for The Residence and Rushbond and DS Emotion for St Leonard’s Place, York. Finally, this year’s Lifetime Achievement award went to Jonathan Morgan, co-founder of Morgans sales and letting agency for the enormous part he has played in and making city living it a vibrant and exciting reality. Judges applauded his work in attracting inward investment and concluded that he is a great ambassador for the city. The sponsors of this year’s Yorkshire Residential Property Awards were Bond Dickinson, Kier, Carter Jonas, Hampshire Trust Bank, DS Emotion, Edward Architecture, Walker Morris, WYG and The Yorkshire Post with support from French PR. The organisers were Variety and all funds raised from the awards dinner at the Queen’s Hotel, Leeds, will go to funding their work with disabled, disadvantaged and deserving children in Yorkshire. Duncan Syers, of Town Centre Securities, is Chairman of the Yorkshire committee of Variety, the children’s charity. He says: “All the money raised at the Yorkshire Reisdential Property Awards is spent in the region and very little goes on running costs as Variety Yorkshire is mainly run by volunteers. Some of the funds are used to pay for Sunshine coaches, which are used by schools and organisations for children with special needs. It is also used to support one-off appeals for help and to buy wheelchairs. Most of the chairs we buy cost between £3,000 to £5,000 but we have paid £15,000 to £20,000 to buy specialist chairs. The effect is life changing.”

Man pleads guilty to trying to help friend join IS A A Share via Email ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A Virginia taxi driver has pleaded guilty to trying to help a friend join the Islamic State group. Mahmoud A.M. Elhassan of Woodbridge was arrested in January after a government sting operation. Elhassan and a friend, Joseph Farrokh, discussed their support of the Islamic State with an individual who turned out to be a government informant. At a plea hearing Monday in federal court in Alexandria, Elhassan admitted driving Farrokh to the airport, where Farrokh planned to start a trip to Syria. Prosecutors said Monday that they believe Elhassan also planned to travel to join Islamic State. Elhassan's attorney, Thomas Durkin, denied that. Farrokh has already pleaded guilty. Elhassan pleaded guilty to one terror-related charge at Monday's hearing, but could still face trial on another.

Hannover. Mit dem 1. FC Nürnberg wartet am Sonntag (13.30 Uhr) allerdings ein schwerer Auswärtsgegner. Die Franken siegten zuletzt dreimal nacheinander. "Erfolgserlebnisse im Rücken zu haben, ist immer schön. Deswegen erwarte ich eine selbstbewusste und hochmotivierte Nürnberger Mannschaft", sagte 96-Trainer Daniel Stendel am Freitag. Der Coach des Aufstiegsanwärters muss beim "Club" allerdings seine Startelf ändern. Samuel Radlinger rückt für den verletzten Philipp Tschauner zwischen die Pfosten. Auch Salif Sané wird mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit wieder in die Innenverteidigung rücken. Dagegen droht Abwehrspieler Waldemar Anton die Ersatzbank. Der wiedergenesene Martin Harnik könnte in Nürnberg als Joker zum Einsatz kommen. dpa

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/pet-shop-owner-fined-over-waste-disposal-shambles-1-8194349
A pet shop owner has been slapped with a fine after disposing of his business waste in a town hall’s bins. Chris Jones, who ran the now-closed Wetherby Pet Store, was prosecuted by Leeds City Council’s environmental action enforcement team over the four offences. Jones, of Cross Street in Wetherby, was fined £385 with £695 costs and a £38 victim surcharge after being found guilty of breaching the Environmental Protection Act 1990. He had failed to turn up to two previous court hearings following complaints that his shop’s waste was being deposited in skips belonging to Wetherby Town Hall. The items of rubbish were clearly labelled with the store’s name, and council officers initially served him with a legal notice to produce his business waste contract. After failing to comply, he was issued with a £300 fixed penalty notice and required to obtain a bin and arrange regular collections. He did not pay the original fine and was then discovered to have loose waste at the rear of the premises. Counc Lucinda Yeadon, executive member for environment and sustainability, said: “Businesses need to be really clear that they have a duty of care when it comes to how they dispose of their rubbish. “Any reputable business – large or small – will ensure that the rubbish produced as they go about their daily work is disposed of properly and safely and does not create a blight for other business owners and members of public. “Disposing of your business waste in a lazy and selfish way could ultimately end up hitting your bottom line and reputation when you end up in court.”

http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/subsidy-regime-loaded-against-young-farmers-1-8194358
A generation of young farmers feel they are being blocked from establishing themselves in the industry because of a subsidy regime which is “loaded against them”. Almost half of young farmers (46 per cent) who took part in a country-wide consultation said they wanted support payments to continue for a limited time only, with many saying that existing landowners who have control of farmland and an income from direct subsidies are proving to be a stubborn barrier to young people looking to make their breakthrough. A report by the National Federation of Young Farmers’ Clubs (NFYFC) on the findings of its online survey, states: “Many of these young farmers do not expect to be given subsidies, but they recognise the unfairness of a system which is loaded against them. Existing farmers are provided with support, but those at the foot of the ladder are not.” The most popular choice for young farmers - the view held by 35 per cent of those who responded to the survey - was to reduce or remove the current area-based basic subsidy payments that the Government administers from the European Union, and instead support farmers through government grants or loans for farm business investments. Lynsey Martin, vice chairman of the NFYFC, said: “If the subsidy system is supposed to help farming become more dynamic, to contribute public goods and benefits, then it might do this better if it were not so inextricably tied to land ownership but instead addressed the business needs of established farmers and new entrants alike.” The future of farm subsidies is uncertain. The Government has promised to honour EU payments up until 2020 even though Britain is expected to have formally exited EU membership by then, but policy makers have yet to propose what support will exist afterwards. We need to get into a mindset of investing in agriculture instead. Sam Dilcock, agricultural and rural issues chairman at the National Federation of Young Farmers’ Clubs Sam Dilcock, agricultural and rural issues chairman at the NFYFC, wants the Government to use Brexit as a chance to rethink how young people can be supported in order to break into the industry. The 29-year-old who works as a self-employed agricultural contractor based in Knottingley near Wakefield, said: “Getting started in farming has many challenges. We have now got the Land Partnerships Service, to help bring together farmers and land with new entrants and business ideas, which is great. But we need to look at short- and long-term finance too - which are especially big barriers to new entrants.” Mr Dilcock said the Government should move away from direct subsidies which, in some cases he said, enables less forward-thinking and unproductive farmers to continue until later life. Instead, financial support for the industry should take the form of investment packages that would fund “tangible assets” like machinery that would give younger farmers the start up capital they need to compete financially with older farmers. Mr Dilcock, who aspires to become a tenant farmer but said he was deterred by high rents and short-term contracts, added: “There is a fantastic opportunity after Brexit to redesign the landscape of British agriculture. “I think subsidies will get less and less and we need to get into a mind set of investing in agriculture instead - in livestock, crops, machinery and tangible assets.” The NFYFC’s consultation, ‘Considerations for a Future British Agricultural Policy’, gathered views from 184 young people involved in farming over the summer following the decision for Britain to leave the EU. Its survey results will now be shared with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs in order for young people’s views to be considered as part of the Government’s forthcoming proposals for a comprehensive post-Brexit British agricultural policy. YOUNG NEED ACCESS TO FUNDS Young people believe there are a number of potential barriers to developing their agricultural careers. Asked in the NFYFC’s survey what was most important in the next five years of their farm business careers, 39 per cent said finance for farm investments, 29 per cent said it was availability of farmland or farm buildings and 21 per cent stated availability of working capital. Only 24 per cent said the most useful support to build their own businesses was higher levels of subsidy, or tax breaks, to established farmers partnering with young farmers. Loans and small grants were preferred options.

BALLOT RECOMMENDATIONS FROM HAPPY JONES, JOCELYN WURZBURG AND PAULA CASEY Dear Friends: When people have asked for our recommendations, we have always prided ourselves on supporting candidates regardless of party, gender, race, or ethnic background. We look for the most qualified candidates to serve the public. We study the issues. This year, we have been appalled that the most unqualified, vile, misogynistic, xenophobic, and racist candidate to ever seek the presidency continues to receive support from local Republicans. We were also appalled that no local Republican state legislators sought to oust the despicable Jeremy Durham before the state attorney general's report revealed the depths of Durham's depravity. These two sexual predators do not deserve to be in elective office. Thank goodness the GOP finally grew a spine and ousted Mr. Durham. It should have happened much sooner. They only did it when there was a public outcry. Republicans running for state and federal office continue to state their support for the unqualified and embarrassing GOP presidential nominee. Shameful. We are recommending that you vote for any and all Democrats running for every office. It is the only way to show disgust with what the Republicans have done. We think they deserve to be defeated for their support of two sexual predators. The legislature wouldn't have ousted Mr. Durham if they hadn't had to so he wouldn't receive a legislative pension. Lots of people knew about his antics and turned a blind eye, including local GOP legislators.

Facebook adds food ordering feature Facebook Inc said users in the United States would be able to order food through the Facebook pages of restaurants starting on Wednesday as part of its efforts to connect users and businesses. A rise in energy and financial stocks pushed Wall Street higher on Wednesday, but a drop in consumer staples and Intel limited gains, especially on the Nasdaq. Intel (INTC.O) tumbled nearly 6 percent and was the biggest drag on all three indexes, after the chipmaker's disappointing current-quarter revenue forecast. The Philadelphia SE Semiconductor index .SOX dipped 0.8 percent. Oil prices surged more than 2 percent after a report showed an unexpected drop in U.S. crude stockpiles. [O/R] The energy sector .SPNY jumped 1.64 percent, the most in three weeks, also boosted by a 5.2 percent rise in Halliburton (HAL.N) following its surprise quarterly profit. Morgan Stanley (MS.N) inched up 0.2 percent after its results rounded off a strong quarter for big U.S. banks. The financial sector .SPSY has gained 1 percent since Thursday, a day before the banks started reporting, while the KBW bank index .BKX is up 2.1 percent. Through Tuesday, earnings from S&P 500 companies had largely beaten market expectations, putting them on track to post profit growth for the first time in five quarters. Analysts now estimate earnings increased 0.2 percent in the third quarter, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. "We would see the third quarter as the bottoming out of the earnings recession that we have been experiencing for the last year or so," said Tracy Maeter, global investment specialist, J.P. Morgan Private Bank in Philadelphia. "But it's likely to be a little bit noisy with a lot of dispersion across the sectors." At 11:00 a.m. ET (1500 GMT), the Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI was up 76.12 points, or 0.42 percent, at 18,238.06. Five of the 11 major S&P sectors were lower, with the consumer staples' .SPLRCS 0.6 percent drop the steepest. The Federal Reserve is due to release its Beige Book at about 2:00 p.m. ET, giving anecdotal commentary on the health of the U.S. economy. The third and final U.S. presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton starts later in the evening. The stock market had gained on both days after the previous two debates, which were perceived to be won by Clinton. "The noise in the marketplace around politics can drive stocks in the short term, but in terms of the underlying influence ... that's going to be driven more by the economy and the profitability of companies," Maeter said. Advancing issues outnumbered decliners on the NYSE by 1,949 to 861. On the Nasdaq, 1,420 issues rose and 1,100 fell. The S&P 500 showed seven new 52-week highs and two new lows, while the Nasdaq recorded 34 new highs and 37 new lows. (Reporting by Yashaswini Swamynathan in Bengaluru; Editing by Savio D'Souza)

Vintage enthusiast and seamstress Paula Duggan has filled her beautiful home with collected and handmade treasures. Lucy Oates reports. Paula Duggan chuckles as she recalls how her passion for collecting what she describes as “affordable antiques” began. One Sunday 20 years ago, her husband David spotted an advert in The Yorkshire Post for a series of antiques fairs in Wakefield and suggested they go along. She remembers: “I joked about it at the time; we didn’t know anything and I thought it would be stuffy. It was actually three fairs that all used to take place on the same day and it ended up being like the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears – the first fair was way too expensive; you needed a big purse. The second was not too bad, but the third was in a village hall with a tearoom and I felt right at home. I bought plates and cake stands, and I was hooked.” From then on, Paula’s love of collecting spiralled and it wasn’t long before the couple needed more space to house their antique furniture, china and linen. When they spotted a rambling, period property on the market in Goole 15 years ago, they went along to have a look and discovered a fascinating family connection with what was to become their new home. Built in 1912 as a residential property, Westfield House fell into local authority ownership at some point during the Second World War, when it became a military fire station. “The Green Goddess fire engines were based here and David’s aunt was the chief fire warden,” says Paula. “Previously there were extensive gardens and an orchard but at some point they were sold off by the council. Later, it was a dental surgery and then a social services building. It was sold to us by a guy who had bought it cheaply from the council two years earlier in a poor state of repair. There had been a fire in the loft and it was ready to be demolished.” Sadly, most of the period features had been ripped out and only the picture rails survived. The previous owner had fitted a freestanding, cast-iron bath and a period fireplace in an attempt to restore some of the lost character, but it is Paula’s love of collecting, together with her self-taught sewing and upcycling skills, that has really breathed life back into the house. A huge fan of classic English country house style, Paula’s interiors are nothing if not eclectic, seamlessly combining ornate Victorian furniture with stunning French, antique rugs; chintzy soft furnishings; pretty china festooned with blousy cabbage roses and animal motifs; and even taxidermy. Paula is quick to point out that, as a vegetarian and animal lover, she would only ever buy antique taxidermy and likes to know the story behind each piece. For example, the lower leg of a horse sitting in a glass case in her living room was once used for research purposes at a university. In the spare bedroom, layer upon layer of beautiful vintage linen creates a charming Princess and the Pea effect on the cast-iron bedstead and, in the master bedroom, a stuffed swan perches on top of a mahogany corner cabinet. It’s quirky and fun, yet it’s a look that suits the age and dimensions of the house beautifully. Paula adds: “Everything you see is salvaged, nothing is new. It’s just not me to go to B&Q. I do go to some antique fairs, but I also love eBay and car boot sales. I bought three French beds from one car boot sale – without thinking how I would get them home in the car, but we managed. With car boot sales, you have one chance to buy something because it won’t be there again. “I love a particular type of country house chintz, the more subtle kind. In the 1980s, when Ikea was telling people ‘chuck out your chintz’, I was thinking chuck it my way! I love buying fabrics by Colefax and Fowler, Osborne & Little and GP & J Baker, which are based on 17th and 18th century designs. “It doesn’t matter to me whether or not something is worth a great deal or if it’s damaged. I rarely go out and come back with nothing. I buy with my heart, not my head. “I’m not sure how you’d categorise my look. I collect what I’d call affordable antiques and I think this house shows that you don’t have to live in a pretty cottage to achieve country house style.” Paula admits that she stumbled into dealing antiques when her passion for collecting got out of hand and she forced herself to part with some of her buys. Since giving up her day job four years ago, she has focused on building her business, Little English House, which sells antiques and items handcrafted from antique fabrics. Showing me a tea towel fashioned from an old curtain, she says: “I can’t throw anything away and I sometimes make things to get my money back for an item. I’ve taught myself to sew and upholster by deconstructing things to see how they’re made.” She laughs as she says it, but something tells me she’s not joking when she adds: “My nightmare would be to live in a house with modern curtains. I don’t like clean lines, and neat and tidy. It has to be comfortable, lived in and loved.” Little English House can be found on Etsy and Facebook.

IT’S a truly noteworthy collection that would be hard to fit on even the most powerful iPod. Thousands of CDs and vinyl records – covering everything from jazz to classical to pop and plenty of points in between – are held in the library at Quarry Hill’s Leeds College of Music. But at present they are in the main only accessed by the college’s students, away from the eyes and ears of the wider Leeds public. From next year, however, the collection will be easily available to students and non-students alike when it is moved to a new home in another building on Quarry Hill. Based on the ground floor of the area’s Skyline development, the purpose-built library will also contain student learning spaces, meeting rooms and offices. And staff at the college – technically known as a conservatoire because of its specialist teaching style – today told of their excitement at the prospect of sharing their musical treasure trove with people across the city. Leeds College of Music principal and managing director Gerry Godley said: “The conservatoire already boasts numerous industry-standard studios, Mac labs, practice rooms and performance spaces, and is continually investing in resources for students and visitors. “In order to remain a leading player in the UK’s music education marketplace, it is critical that our facilities remain cutting edge and enhance our diverse and innovative offer. “This new home for the library, and the creation of an additional stimulating place to study, will play a key part in achieving this. As part of our aim to be a centre of creative discovery for Leeds, I’m delighted that we’ll also be able to share our extensive collections with music lovers throughout the city.” The archive comprises 11,000 CDs, 9,000 LPs and 700 DVDs as well as 8,000 books and more than 30,000 items of printed music. The library in the Skyline building will be designed and delivered by the DarntonB3 Architecture firm, which worked on the recently-opened and award-winning new entrance at the college’s Quarry Hill campus. DarntonB3 director Keith Hardcastle said: “It is great to be involved in the development of such an exciting and important facility on behalf of Leeds College of Music. “We have re-employed the same design principles that we applied to our previous award-winning project for the conservatoire and will focus all our skills on achieving the same high quality end result for this scheme.“ Planning permission for the project has already been secured and construction is due to begin in January. It is hoped the library – the latest addition to Quarry Hill’s so-called ‘cultural quarter’ – will be completed by June next year. Other organisations with a presence in the area include the BBC, West Yorkshire Playhouse, Northern Ballet and Phoenix Dance. Opened in 2009, the 16-storey Skyline building is mostly home to apartments but its ground floor is currently vacant. Leeds College of Music was set up in 1965 and moved to Quarry Hill in 1997. Its Fellows over the years have included Dame Fanny Waterman, Ronnie Scott, Courtney Pine and Marc Almond. The archive has built up over the last 20 years or so thanks to generous donations from a range of benefactors. Library manager Claire Marsh says one of the most important parts of the collection is a set of around 1,500 arrangements once used by the legendary Ted Heath Band. Some pieces are arranged for vocalists while there is also music written for a season by the band at the Savoy Hotel. The items are complemented by the Ted Heath Musical Appreciation Society Archive, which contains articles, letters, programmes and autographs.

Essen. Sie kam mit einem Rollator und fing gleich an zu weinen: Eine 80-jährige Frau aus Gelsenkirchen muss sich seit Freitag wegen Beihilfe zum Drogenhandel vor dem Essener Landgericht verantworten. Die Seniorin soll ihren Sohn bei kiloschweren Heroingeschäften unterstützt haben. Angeblich war sie sogar bei Kurierfahrten nach Holland dabei. Sie hat deshalb den Spitznamen „Drogen-Oma“ bekommen. Zum Prozessauftakt gab die 80-Jährige ihr Verhalten zu. „Was ich gemacht habe, war nicht in Ordnung“, hieß es in einem von ihrer Verteidigerin verlesenen Schreiben. „Ich habe aber alles nur für meinen Sohn getan. Und damit etwas Abwechslung in mein Leben kommt.“ Laut Anklage hatte die ehemalige Wirtin große Mengen Heroin in ihrer Wohnung deponiert und auf Anweisung ihres Sohnes auch weiterverkauft. „Manchmal bat er mich, etwas herauszugeben“, hieß es in ihrer Erklärung. Eigentlich habe sie aber gar keine Ahnung von Drogen gehabt. „Für mich war das nur braunes Pulver.“ Sie sei auch mal mit Holland gefahren. Dass dabei Rauschgift gekauft worden ist, habe sie aber nicht gewusst. „Für mich ging es nur darum, dass ich mal rauskomme. Ich fahre nämlich gerne Auto.“ Außerdem seien die Freunde ihres Sohnes immer nett zu ihr gewesen. Sie hätten sich gekümmert und seien für sie einkaufen gegangen. Sonst habe sie niemanden gehabt, ließ sie die Richter wissen. Mitangeklagt ist die 36-jährige Ex-Freundin ihres inhaftierten Sohnes. Auch sie soll in einem Fall eine kleinere Menge Heroin weiterverkauft haben. Mit den Urteilen ist voraussichtlich Mitte November zu rechnen. Beide Angeklagte sind auf freiem Fuß. Der Sohn der 80-Jährigen wurde bereits zu siebeneinhalb Jahren Haft verurteilt. Von dpa/RND/wer Essen

http://www.wakefieldexpress.co.uk/lifestyle/property/the-dilapidated-school-which-is-a-class-act-as-a-family-home-1-8171383
Converting a village school was a labour of love for Glenys and Nils Persson. Heather Dixon reports. Pictures by Colin Poole. Glenys and Nils Persson were so keen to find an old property to convert into a family home that they even went knocking on people’s doors asking to buy their barns and outbuildings. Unfortunately, no-one wanted to sell and after two years of fruitless searching they were on the verge of giving up – until they spotted a dilapidated old school in a village near Skipton on the verge of rack and ruin. The disused school belonged to North Yorkshire County Council and had been run for a while as an outdoor centre before being left empty and exposed to the elements. It was to be sold by auction and there was a lot of interest. “It was held at the local pub and it was the first auction we’d been to,” says Glenys. “Our family did the bidding. Nils’s father is a builder and the plan was for him to convert it into two properties, with Nils and I buying one of them.” Their bid was successful. “We were delighted,” adds Glenys. “We were planning to have a family and this would be much bigger than our last house, and we loved its village location.” Getting planning permission to convert the school into two homes was relatively easy, but working to the conditions of consent wasn’t quite so straightforward. The school is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty so they had to stick to the original footprint and height and use the original stone where possible. When building work began, however, they realised a lot of the original materials had perished and they had to go back to planning for permission to use new stone where necessary. “In the end, we used the reclaimed stone towards the front of the property and newer stone to the back, dismantling and rebuilding in sections to preserve as much original stone as possible,” says Glenys who, with Nils, lived in rented accommodation while the school was being transformed. “We also rebuilt a flat-roof lean-to and incorporated it into the house to create a large sitting room with our en-suite bedroom above.” The dining kitchen was originally one of just two classrooms – the other is now in the adjoining property – while the open roof area has been transformed into two more bedrooms and a bathroom. The old playground was replaced with a driveway and Glenys tamed the overgrown garden while Nils’s father and brother carried out the building work. What happened next was bittersweet. In the last four months of the renovation Glenys, who by this time was expecting her son Noah, was confined to hospital bed rest. At the same time her mother was ill with cancer. “There were so many mixed emotions,” says Glenys. “When I came out of hospital with our new-born baby the new house was ready to move into, which was wonderful, but then Mum died not long afterwards, which was heart-breaking. It was a really difficult time with so many life-changing events happening at once, but I took comfort in the fact that Mum lived long enough to see Noah and to know that we were settled into our new home.” At around the same time Nils was made redundant so when Noah was a bit older Glenys and Nils launched their own business together, running a cafe and ceramic studio in Skipton. Even with so much happening, the couple never wavered from their mission to turn the former primary school into a warm and welcoming family home. “We wanted to create the lived-in, country look,” says Glenys. “We like to find new uses for old things and will often go for something a bit retro. We try to mix old and new together.” The fabric of the building is in keeping with its history, including reclaimed floorboards from another old school and beams from a disused mill. The bespoke painted wood kitchen was made by Eastburn Country Furniture and Nils has built in plenty of shelves and cupboards to create storage, which was lacking when they first moved in. “I love bright colours,” adds Glenys. “We use a lot of colour at work and that’s reflected in the house. They are cheerful and homely. We tend to live in the kitchen most of the time because it’s such a relaxing space, but the sitting room gets used in winter. We’re really happy here – it’s just the right size for us and we love the fact that the building has such a history to it. “Some of the best moments are when people walking by stop to tell us that they used to come to school here. They like the fact that it’s been given a new lease of life and that children are running around here again after all those years of standing empty.” Renovator’s tips Glenys advises anyone renovating an old property to work with the character of the building but have a clear focus on the way they want it to look when it’s finished. “There is so much choice that it’s easy to get side-tracked, so decide what you want to achieve from the outset and keep that in mind from start to finish.”

Hilfe für Privatanleger Bundesbank will Turbohändler ausbremsen Die Bundesbank will den Hochfrequenzhandel durch neue Regeln ausbremsen. Nachteile langsamerer Börsenakteure könnten so zum Teil ausgeglichen werden, "ohne den technischen Fortschritt an den Handelsplätzen spürbar zu mindern", heißt es im aktuellen Monatsbericht der Notenbank, der am Montag veröffentlicht wurde. Automatisierte Handelssysteme, die bei ihren Orders Algorithmen folgen, gehören an den Finanzmärkten mittlerweile zum Alltag. Aus Sicht der Bundesbank sorgen diese zwar für mehr Liquidität im Markt. Durch den Hochfrequenzhandel steige aber auch das Risiko von hohen Kursausschlägen, "wodurch Marktverwerfungen bis hin zu Flash Events begünstigt werden könnten". Beim "Flash Crash" in den USA im Mai 2010 rauschte der US-Leitindex S&P 500 innerhalb weniger Minuten um fast zehn Prozent in den Keller, um sich kurz darauf schnell wieder zu erholen. Ausgelöst wurde der Einbruch durch einen gut vier Milliarden Dollar schweren Verkaufsauftrag eines Geldmarkt-Managers, wie die US-Börsenaufsicht SEC später herausfand. Hochfrequenzhändler haben den Absturz ihrer Einschätzung nach jedoch durch zahlreiche Verkaufsorders beschleunigt. Die Bundesbank schlägt nun unter anderem vor, statt einem stetigen Handel eine Abfolge von Auktionen einzurichten. Handelsaufträge würden gebündelt und dann in kurzer Abfolge über eine Auktion ausgeführt. Der Geschwindigkeitsvorteil von Hochfrequenzhändlern soll so verringert werden. Zudem könne eine kleine Zeitverzögerung bei Ausführung der Aufträge aller Börsenakteure eingeführt werden. In den USA gibt es mit der Plattform IEX bereits einen Anbieter, der den Handel um 350 Mikrosekunden verzögert. Große Börsenbetreiber sind diesem Beispiel jedoch bisher nicht gefolgt. Flash Crash in USA - doch Deutsche Börse sieht hierzulande keine Risiken Auch die Deutsche Börse sieht aktuell keinen Grund, das Marktmodell zu ändern. Sie verweist darauf, dass es an ihrer Derivatebörse Eurex seit 2008 trotz Phasen mit hoher Volatilität zu keinem einzigen "Flash Crash" gekommen ist - auch nicht nach dem überraschenden Brexit-Votum am 23. Juni. "Dank unserer Sicherungsmechanismen waren wir in der Lage, ohne Vorfälle die Preisbildung zu ermöglichen", erklärte der Konzern. Bei Deutschlands größtem Börsenbetreiber sind Hochfrequenzhändler für rund 25 Prozent der Erlöse verantwortlich. Bei großen Marktschwankungen gibt es bei den Frankfurtern Volatilitätsunterbrechungen. Bevor es zu ungewöhnlich großen Kursausschlägen kommt, unterbricht der Börsenbetreiber dabei kurz den Handel. Er sammelt dann alle Handelsaufträge und überzeugt sich gegebenenfalls von der Richtigkeit der Gebote. Wenn alle Zweifel ausgeräumt sind und ein neuer Marktpreis gefunden ist, geht der Handel weiter. Deutschland hat bereits 2013 ein Hochfrequenzhandelsgesetz verabschiedet, um die Transparenz und Sicherheit im Börsenhandel zu erhöhen. Vorschläge, Algo-Trader durch Mindesthaltefristen auszubremsen, wurden damals allerdings verworfen. la/reuters © manager magazin 2016 Alle Rechte vorbehalten Vervielfältigung nur mit Genehmigung der manager magazin Verlagsgesellschaft mbH

London. Der Tabakkonzern British American Tobacco (BAT) will sich den Camel-Hersteller Reynolds American komplett einverleiben. BAT hält bereits 42,2 Prozent an Reynolds. Den Kauf der noch ausstehenden Anteile lässt sich BAT (Lucky Strike, Dunhill) insgesamt rund 47 Milliarden Dollar (knapp 43 Mrd Euro) kosten, erklärte der Konzern. Der Kaufpreis soll teils in bar, teils in eigenen Aktien bezahlt werden. BAT ist auch in Deutschland aktiv. Größte Marke ist hier Lucky Strike, daneben auch Pall Mall. Reynolds American ist auf den US-Markt konzentriert, seitdem das internationale Geschäft 1999 an Japan Tobacco verkauft wurde. Alle Marken, auch Camel, gehören außerhalb der USA zu dem asiatischen Konzern und werden von JT International in der Schweiz geführt. Mit der Übernahme wird BAT nach eigenen Angaben der größte börsennotierte Tabakkonzern nach Umsatz und Ertrag. Damit würde BAT an der Spitze den Marlboro-Hersteller Philip Morris ablösen, ebenfalls ein US-Unternehmen. Mit einigem Abstand folgen Japan Tobacco und Imperial Tobacco, Muttergesellschaft des deutschen Herstellers Reemtsma. Abseits der privatwirtschaftlichen Konzerne ist der chinesische Staatsbetrieb China National Tobacco der größte Zigarettenhersteller der Welt und größer als die vier Privatunternehmen zusammen.

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen Rash of battery fires and explosions underscores need for better recharging solution (firmenpresse) - IRVINE, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/17/16 -- a pioneer of innovative technologies that address the world's energy challenges, announces the launch of its newest "hardware smart" solution: . Hyperflow™ Technology is a fundamentally different method for charging lithium-ion (li-ion) batteries. It eliminates the serious safety concerns swirling around rechargeable batteries in smartphones and other devices. And because Hyperflow™ Technology also enables faster and more efficient charging than ever before, significant leaps forward in battery energy density will now be possible. "Overcoming electrical resistance is the key to the future's high energy demands," says Richard Dellacona, physicist and inventor of Thor™ Hyperflow™ Technology. "Our solution charges batteries with effectively zero resistance. That means OEMs can make batteries with even higher energy density, without worrying about whether the charging process is efficient or safe. And now that we have all the patents on the technology, we're eager to share this technology with the world." Battery fires and explosions have been plastered all over the news recently, but it's not fair to single out one product or company. The safety issue is fundamental to modern rechargeable batteries. Today, batteries are typically charged using a "brute force" method in which electrons are shoved into place. This creates lots of electrical resistance as electrons rebound and are pushed back repeatedly. Electrical resistance means slower, less efficient charging and, more importantly, heat. This heat byproduct can ignite the electrolytic fluid in the battery directly; or, it can gradually weaken the separator that prevents energy from passing from one pole to the other - which may also result in a fire. When that separator is compromised, the battery can explode at any time, not just when being charged. For these reasons, li-ion batteries, or the devices they power, have software to throttle the flow of particles and limit heat buildup. Thor™ Hyperflow™ Technology is a radically different method that takes electrical resistance and heat out of the equation. The technology relies on magnetics rather than electronics to move electrons into place, automatically sensing and filling available spaces with the battery's atomic structure. Fire and explosion danger is virtually nonexistent. As Dellacona explains There's no longer any need to regulate the process with circuitry and software which can be compromised. "Hyperflow™ Technology will eliminate the safety concerns associated with li-ion batteries today," says Inventi™ CEO and Founder Gary Davi, "and clear the way for a new era of innovation. It's no exaggeration to say that batteries will power the future. From electric vehicles to alternative, distributed energy grids, the rechargeable battery industry is poised to become even larger than it is now. We envision Hyperflow™ Technology being a major catalyst for that growth." The Hyperflow™ Technology method of passively charging batteries works with any battery chemistry being used today, as well as any chemistry that might be engineered in the future. Therefore, as batteries become increasingly energy dense, Hyperflow™ Technology will ensure safety and efficiency will never be a roadblock to innovation. Founded in 2015, Inventi™ is the developer of "hardware smart" innovations for the consumer electronics, high-tech, energy and utility industries. The company's first year of operation has seen the release of Veactor™ xPath™ Technology and Thor™ Hyperflow™ Technology. These technologies address significant problems with power transmission/conversion and battery charging, respectively. ** News, Media, PR and Content distribution provided by "1800pr" Image Available: Gary Davi Founder & CEO(949) 892-0447 More information:http://www2.marketwire.com/mw/frame_mw?attachid=3068225 Date: 10/17/2016 - 15:12Language: EnglishNews-ID 500893Character count: 0Kontakt-Informationen: Firma: Inventi, Inc.Stadt: IRVINE, CANumber of hits: 10 Linking-Tips: Direct Link to this PressRelease: We would appreciate a link in your News-, Press- or Partner-Site.

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen (firmenpresse) - Smartphone shopping comes of age with 20 per cent fully shopping via a mobile device and 60 per cent willing toGeneration Consumer, the UK citizen that is empowered and comfortable with online shopping, is now using the smartphone more frequently to complete end-to-end shopping experiences in a dramatic shift in online behaviour. This is according to the latest research from Tryzens, a managed service provider of eCommerce solutions.Tryzens Expert Research tracks, analyses and forecasts the trends and preferences of ‘Generation Consumer’ based on detailed analysis of 1,000 UK consumers who were exposed to online shopping and had made at least one purchase in the past quarter. The Expert Research series was launched in 2015 to assist retailers operating online to quantify current consumer behaviour and preferences in order to more accurately and effectively evolve their eCommerce capabilities.According to the latest research, fashion and apparel retailers have very different pressures on them when trading online compared to other verticals, ranging from a desire for richer content experiences to convey the look and styling both on images and videos, as well as making links from social media, blogs and shopable content to the eCommerce site. Uniquely clothing retailers must also make it easy to order the right size in order to mitigate returns.Andy Burton, CEO of Tryzens, stated: “The Swiss Army knife of the modern digital world – the smartphone – has come of age. Improved connectivity, faster processors, bigger and better screens and a huge range of apps have now made its core function one of access to digital content and data rather than voice. It is now a permanent part of a consumers’ day-to-day life and as rich application technology has finally caught up with the device our research is clearly indicating that the smartphone is the device of choice in the critical 16-45 year age group.”“As a result we would argue that it is now essential that retailers adopt a robust ‘mobile first’ approach when it comes to redeveloping or enhancing their eCommerce site. I would argue that any new site needs to be built first and foremost around the smartphone consumer perspective. In practical terms that means reworking the customer experience to favour fewer key taps, simplifying the Search/PLP and easing the completion of checkout for deliveries to regular addresses as well as adoption of mobile payment services,” he added. Key findings of the Expert Research included:• 48 per cent of the UK have bought clothes online in the past three months• When factoring in age, 58 per cent of the 16 to18 year age group bought clothes online within the past three months, reducing in a near linear fashion to 38 per cent in the over 66 year old group• In terms of stereotypes, 57 per cent of women have shopped online for clothing over the past three months, while 51 per cent of men shopped more frequently for entertainment and electrical goods than clothes• 82 per cent of shoppers who buy in-store research their purchase online first• The freedom to shop at any time was cited as the most significant benefit of online shopping according to 85 per cent of females and 77 per cent of males • This was followed by the ability to find the wildest range of products quickly and efficiently (63 per cent), and the ability to access the best price before purchasing (62 per cent) • According to the research half of online shoppers prefer to see clothing physically before purchasing• Smartphones are the preference for the under 25’s which is on a par with laptops for those aged up to 45“Whilst laptops formally remain the favourite device used by consumers when online shopping, the biggest year-on-year change has been the stratospheric growth of expectation around the ability to shop solely on a mobile device. The smartphone is now rated as the preferred device by 65 per cent of our research base and tablets by 52 per cent. Desktops have dropped from second preference to fourth in a year! This really is a move to shop anytime, anywhere and on the move,” continued Andy.

The Latest: Report: Oklahoma suspect posting live videos A A Share via Email WELLSTON, Okla. — The Latest on the search for an Oklahoma man accused of wounding two police officers (all times local): 9:20 a.m. An Oklahoma City television station is reporting that a man accused of shooting two Oklahoma police officers has been posting live videos while on the run. TV station KWTV reports (http://bit.ly/2f0l2zl ) that Michael Vance posted two videos Sunday night on Facebook Live. The Associated Press couldn't immediately verify the videos. The Lincoln County sheriff hasn't returned a message Monday morning regarding the videos. In one video, a man wearing a backward baseball cap says he's about to steal another vehicle and it's "gonna be intense." In another, the same man says: "Letting y'all know, look, this is real" before showing a long gun on the passenger seat. He says: "If you want to know what's up next, stay tuned to your local news." Vance is a suspect in the shooting of two Wellston police officers Sunday night and in a double slaying in Oklahoma County. ___ 8:30 a.m. Authorities are searching for a man suspected in a double slaying and accused of shooting and wounding two police officers near Oklahoma City. The Lincoln County Sheriff's Office says the officers were shot Sunday night as they responded to a report of shots fired in the town of Wellston, 35 miles northeast of Oklahoma City. The sheriff's office says they are recovering from their injuries. The sheriff's office says one person was arrested but that a second suspect, Michael Vance, stole a patrol car and remains missing. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says authorities believe Vance is driving a silver 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse with an Oklahoma license plate of 943LQQ. The sheriff in

Auf der Aachen-Dresden-Denkendorf International Textile Conference werden Forschungs- und Entwicklungsresultate teils erstmalig gezeigt, deren Transfer in die industrielle Anwendung ansteht; zudem werden marktrelevante Entwicklungstrends aufgezeigt: So erschließt etwa der zunehmende Einsatz maßgeschneiderter Kohlenstofffasern, wie sie am Institut für Textilmaschinen und Textile Hochleistungswerkstofftechnik (ITM) der TU Dresden produziert werden können, völlig neue Perspektiven für Hightech-Produkte. Neuartige Schutzbekleidung und textile Warnsysteme Andy Schuffenhauer von der auf wasserstrahlverfestigte Vliesstoffe spezialisierten Norafin Industries im sächsischen Mildenau kommt mit einem Sortiment besonders leichter, wieder einsetzbarer und atmungsaktiver Stoffe für Brandschutzbekleidung zur wichtigsten europäischen Konferenz über Technische Textilien. Gegenüber anderen Materialien weisen sie erhöhten Wärmeschutz bei gleicher Wärmebeanspruchung auf, erlauben ein verringertes Gesamtgewicht der Kleidung und damit mehr Komfort. Die Vliesstoffe eignen sich auch für technische Anwendungen – etwa zur Isolation, Dämmung oder Abschirmung von Bauteilen. Roland Lottenbach von der Schoeller Textil AG aus der Schweiz will anhand hochwertiger Schutz- und Arbeitsbekleidung Einblick in Technologien zur Nutzung gebrauchter und recycelter Polyesterfasern geben. Die Herstellungsverfahren lassen sich auch in anderen Produktbereichen anwenden und bewirken einen drastisch geringeren Wasser-, Land- und Energieverbrauch. Dr. Sabine Trupp von der Fraunhofer-Einrichtung für Mikrosysteme und Festkörper-Technologien EMFT stellt auf der Konferenz das Projekt PROWEAR zur Integration von Sensormaterialien in Schutzkleidung vor: Bei Kontakt mit gefährlichen Stoffen soll sie ihren Träger durch Farbwechsel vor der Bedrohung warnen. Die "smarte" Bekleidung kann durch Variation der Sensormaterialien spezifisch auf verschiedene Anforderungen eingestellt werden. Keine Chance für Bombenleger Die Aufmerksamkeit von Textilherstellern wie auch Institutionen mit besonderen Sicherheitsbedürfnissen – Brief- und Kurierdienste, Behörden, politische Einrichtungen, Organisatoren von Großveranstaltungen sowie Verkehrszentralen – ist Dr. Yvette Dietzel vom Sächsischen Textilforschungsinstitut (STFI) sicher: Sie stellt Forschungsergebnisse ihres Hauses und des ITM Dresden zu flammhemmenden Beschichtungen und serientauglichen Fügeverfahren für mehrlagige Textilverbunde in Explosionsschutzanwendungen vor. Daraus gefertigte leichte, hoch feste Behältnisse unterschiedlichster Art und Größe ermöglichen neue Präventionsmaßnahmen gegen sprengstoffverdächtige Gegenstände im Handgepäck, Brief- und Paketbomben oder zum Schutz explosionsgefährdeter Güter. Zugang zu neuen Materialien, Technologien & Maschinen Rund 80 weitere Referenten von namhaften Unternehmen aus Bereichen wie Automotive, Luft- und Raumfahrt, Chemie, der kompletten technotextilen Wertschöpfungskette sowie von Hochschulen vermitteln aktuelle Erkenntnisse zu Schutz- und Funktionstextilien, neuen Anwendungen von Faserverbund- und polymeren Werkstoffen und zur Funktionalisierung textiler Strukturen. Dazu gehören auch Flammschutzmittel auf polymerer Basis oder textile Sensoren zur Erkennung von Angriffen mit Schnitt- und Stichwerkzeugen. Deutschland ist bei technischen Textilien in Europa führend und Exportweltmeister; der Jahresumsatz liegt bei 13 Mrd. Euro. „Dank langem Forschungsvorlauf bieten unsere innovativen Unternehmen heute textile Lösungen mit spezifischen mechanischen und Schutzeigenschaften sowie `intelligenten` Zusatznutzen an“, sagt Prof. Chokri Cherif, Direktor des ITM. Diese Wettbewerbsvorteile durch einen intensiven Austausch von Erfahrungen, Ideen und Informationen zwischen Unternehmen, Forschungsinstituten und Hochschulen zu stärken, sei Ziel der Konferenz.

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen (firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 10/18/16 -- Editor's Note: There is a video associated with this press release. As the weather cools down, furnaces will begin to warm up. Approximately 75 per cent of Ontario homes use natural gas for home heating, and Enbridge Gas Distribution Inc. (Enbridge) wants to remind customers it's very important to have all fuel burning appliances inspected by a certified technician. In addition, the utility wants to ensure people know what natural gas smells like and what to do if they smell it. As part of its public safety campaign, Enbridge customers will receive a natural gas "scratch and sniff" brochure in their October bill. Paperless billing customers and the public can request the brochures at . Ongoing discussions reveal that many people cannot identify the smell of natural gas and don't know what to do if they smell it. Enbridge is concerned about that - if someone doesn't recognize the smell, they won't know that they need to get to a safe area and call to report it. The best way to describe the smell is rotten eggs, but it can also be identified as a blend of other things, such as: Sulphur, garbage, and boiled eggs. However it's described, the smell is distinctive and intentional so that people notice and can act appropriately. This past summer, Enbridge visited a Boys and Girls Club in Scarborough to give them a whiff of what natural gas smells like, to watch the video. That's why education is so important. If someone suspects a natural gas leak, Enbridge advises: FACTS QUOTE "Our top priority is safety, and that means helping our customers and Ontarians understand how to keep them and their families safe.

Former BHS boss Sir Philip Green needs to ‘get his chequebook’ out to plug the massive hole in the shop chain’s pension fund, Hartlepool MP Iain Wright said today. BHS went into administration shortly after being sold for £1 by Sir Philip, with a £571million pension scheme deficit. The House of Commons debated a motion calling on the billionaire to honour his pledge to make good the shortfall, as well passing as an amendment calling on the Honours Forfeiture Committee to recommend stripping him of his knighthood. Iain Wright is chairman of the Business, Innovation and Skills Committee, which published a damning report into the collapse of the firm, and told the Commons: “(Sir Philip) took the rings from BHS’s fingers, he beat it black and blue, he starved it of food and water, he put it on life support, and then he wanted credit for keeping it alive. “His extraction of value early on in his ownership made the company less able to innovate, to retain a market share or have a competitive place in the retail market, which would allow the firm to generate the profits and be in more of a position to survive the growing pension deficit. “This drip, drip decline provided the back-drop to Sir Philip’s wish to sell the business.” BHS is the biggest corporate scandal we’ve seen for something like a decade but I think there are lessons to be learned. Iain Wright MP Mr Wright said it was difficult to come up with “a more unlikely or incredible knight in shining armour than Dominic Chappell,” the former bankrupt with no experience of major retailers who bought the business for £1. And he hit out at Goldman Sachs for giving credibility to Mr Chappell’s purchase by offering informal advice to Sir Philip over the sale. “Goldman Sachs’ attitude to document management seemed to be on a par with some dodgy and ramshackle cowboy operation rather than supposedly the world’s premier consulting firm,” he said. “Although they were ultimately not responsible for the decisions taken - that was Sir Philip Green - their involvement mattered, they were up to their necks in it, even to the extent of offering a £40million credit facility.” Speaking on BBC News’ Victoria Derbyshire show before the debate, he said: “Sir Phillip Green is seen as a consummate deal maker - he has bought and sold companies worth billions of pounds in a weekend. “If he has the mind and the will to do something, it happens quickly. He came before us on the committee on the fifteenth of June and said he’d sort it. We’re discussing this on the twentieth of October. No progress has been made. “Is that really reflective of someone who wants to sort this? He does need to get his chequebook out.”

A creative project has been given a million reasons to celebrate after it was given a massive cash boost to continue its work for the next three years. East Durham Creates has been awarded £1million from the Arts Council England to fund activities. The project was launched to increase the chance for residents to get creative and involved in arts and culture. More than 22,000 people have been involved in its events so far. Nikki Locke, who leads the programme, said: “It’s fantastic news for East Durham that Arts Council England is providing the investment for this project to continue. Since 2014 we’ve tested lots of different things and our journey so far has been exciting, insightful, humbling and rewarding. “We’d like to especially thank local residents who have made this project their own and are undoubtedly the reason why we have further support. We’d like to especially thank local residents who have made this project their own and are undoubtedly the reason why we have further support. Nikki Locke, head of East Durham Creates “We can’t wait to see what East Durham will create in the next three years – watch this space.” Celebrations have included commissions from six world-class musicians, artists and performers who joined forces with people to create work. Shows have included a performance by a New York-based group who composed a work inspired by the people and landscapes of Seaham and VoiceOver, a project which took place in Horden, linking residents’ homes through an interactive chain of light and sound. A family focused Pirates of Crimdon Dene event saw around 2,500 people explore the area, with a pirate-themed arts trail, activities and performances. Steve Clark, manager of Horden Youth and Community Centre, said: “East Durham Creates has not only brought the community together and helped in fostering creativity, most important of all it has promoted people’s wellbeing and mental health.” Partners East Durham Trust have led the successful Let’s Create programme, awarding 22 commissions to community groups, venues and arts organisations, allowing them to develop and programme creative events.

Stamp collectors of a certain age will be very happy, or even grumpy, after news that the Royal Mail is issuing a special set to celebrate the Mr Men and Little Miss set of books. Mr Bump, Mr Tickle, Little Miss Sunshine, and of course Mr Happy and Mr Grumpy, feature on the 10 stamps - which mark the 45th anniversary of the books by RogerHargreaves. He created the first book after his son Adam asked him what a tickle looked like, inspiring a copywriter to visualise a small orange man with long arms. Since 1971, 50 Mr Men and 36 Little Miss books have been published - and Adam took over from his father following his death in 1988. He said: "I feel incredibly proud and I think my father would have been equally proud and really chuffed. "It's a real accolade for the Mr Men and Little Miss characters to be on a Royal Mail stamp." Philip Parker, of Royal Mail, said: "The Mr Men and Little Miss characters are a worldwide phenomenon. "People identify with the different character traits, and we hope these stamps will brighten up the sending and receiving of mail."

Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano, his wife, Linda, and Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John Venditto were arrested today in connection with a 13-count federal indictment on charges including conspiracy to commit bribery and fraud. According to published reports, the charges stem from an allegedly corrupt partnership between the Manganos, Venditto and prominent restaurateur Harendra Singh, who was arrested last year in connection with a multimillion dollar fraud and bribery scheme. Brian Nevin, spokesman for the county executive, referred all questions to Mangano’s attorney, Kevin Keating, who has not responded to requests for comment. Venditto’s spokesperson also did not return requests for comment. The Manganos were arrested this morning at their Bethpage home and taken to FBI headquarters in Melville. Venditto was also arrested Thursday morning. The indictment charges will be released later this morning at U.S. District Attorney Robert Capers’ office in Central Islip.

2 Americans killed in apparent insider attack in Kabul By PHILLIP WELLMAN | STARS AND STRIPES Published: October 19, 2016 KABUL, Afghanistan — Two Americans were killed in an attack in the Afghan capital Wednesday, The NATO-led force said. One was military and one a civilian. The Afghan Defense Ministry said it was an apparent insider attack. A person wearing a military uniform attacked a group of foreign servicemembers at 11:00 a.m., killing two and wounding five others, said Gen. Dawlat Waziri, a Defense Ministry spokesman. “We have sent a commission to investigate, and they are still in the area,” Waziri said early Wednesday evening. The attacker was killed, he said. The Resolute Support mission also was investigating, the NATO-led mission said in a statement. "Anytime we lose a member of our team, it is deeply painful" said Gen. John W. Nicholson, commander of U.S. Forces-Afghanistan and the NATO-led mission. "Our sympathies go out to the families, loved ones, and the units of those involved in this incident.” <related> There have been several so-called green-on-blue attacks in recent years, but such attacks have become much less frequent. Two Romanian servicemembers were killed in May in the southern city of Kandahar when two attackers dressed as Afghan security officers opened fire on them.

Bank of Canada and Ottawa renew inflation target deal at two per cent A A Share via Email OTTAWA — The Bank of Canada and the federal government said Monday they have renewed their inflation target agreement for another five years in an effort to foster price stability and sustainable economic growth. The target will continue to be two per cent — the midpoint of a range of one to three per cent that the central bank deems acceptable. The central bank and the government said low and stable inflation has helped underpin the Canadian economy and preserve confidence in the value of money. "Controlling the pace of inflation at a steady and low level protects the purchasing power of all Canadians and helps sustain growth and job creation," Finance Minister Bill Morneau said in a statement. The Bank of Canada uses the inflation target when determining monetary policy and setting its key overnight interest rate. Canada started using an inflation target to guide monetary policy in 1991 and has kept the target set at two per cent since 1995. Since then, inflation, as measured by the consumer price index, has averaged close to two per cent and only stepped outside the one to three per cent range for short periods. The bank and government said inflation has also been less volatile during that time. CIBC economist Royce Mendes suggested that there had been some speculation that the Bank of Canada would increase the inflation target. "However, the costs of such a change, and the uncertainties associated with being the first major central bank to do so, appear to have outweighed the benefits of such," Mendes wrote in a report. "That said, the bank will continue to research potential improvements to the monetary policy framework in the years ahead given the constraints central banks are currently facing." The agreement is set to last for another five years, ending Dec. 31, 2021.

Banken kassieren doppelt Dispozins-Praxis kommt vor den BGH Banken machen dicken Profit mit zweistelligen Zinssätzen für die Überziehung von Girokonten. 16,5 Prozent Dispozins plus ein zusätzliches Entgelt - das war Verbraucherschützern dann doch zu viel. Jetzt muss der Bundesgerichtshof über die Zinspraxis zweier Banken verhandeln. Verbraucherschützer kritisieren schon lange die hohen Zinsen, die Kunden für die Überziehung ihres Girokontos zahlen müssen. Wenn sie die Grenze für den eingeräumten Dispokredits überschreiten, wird es noch teurer. Doch manchen Geldhäusern ist das noch nicht genug: Sie fordern zusätzliche Mindestentgelte, falls bei eher kleinen Überziehungen nur kleine Zinsprofite anfallen. Die Forderung von Mindestkosten für Kontenüberziehungen bei der Deutschen Bank und der Targobank stehen deshalb am Dienstag auf dem Prüfstand des Bundesgerichtshofs (BGH). Die klagenden Verbraucherschutzverbände sehen in diesen Entgelten eine unangemessene Benachteiligung der Kunden: Die Deutsche Bank forderte zum Klagezeitpunkt Überziehungszinsen in Höhe von 16,5 Prozent, derzeit sind es 14,90 Prozent. Die Kunden müssen aber laut Kleingedrucktem im Vertrag ein Überziehungsentgelt von mindestens 6,90 Euro im Quartal zahlen, falls der Profit der Bank mit den Sollzinsen unter diesem Betrag liegt. Bei höheren Zinsforderungen fällt dieses Entgelt nicht an. Die Forderungen der Targobank waren nicht ganz so hoch. Sie setzte das Entgelt auf 2,95 Euro fest. Auch hier wurden Sollzinsen nicht in Rechnung gestellt, falls sie den Betrag von 2,95 Euro im Monat unterschritten. Die seit Oktober geltenden Konditionen bei der Targobank sehen vor, dass in jedem Monat, in dem es auf einem Konto zu einer geduldeten Überziehung kommt, 4,95 Euro fällig werden - außer die Sollzinsen übersteigen in diesem Zeitraum diese Höhe. Der Zinssatz fällt bei der Targobank je nach Kontomodell unterschiedlich hoch aus. Die Praxis, ein festes Entgelt für jede begonnene, nur noch geduldete Überziehung zu nehmen, bedeutet nach Ansicht des klagenden Verbraucherzentrale Bundesverbands "eine gehörige Kostensteigerung für Verbraucher": Denn auf diese Weise werde "auch jede kleinste und kurzfristige Überschreitung wesentlich teurer als zu den ohnehin schon hohen Zinssätzen abgerechnet", teilte der Verband auf Anfrage mit. Der BGH muss nun entscheiden, wie diese Entgelte zu bewerten sind. Im Fall der Targobank vertrat das Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf die Auffassung, der durchschnittliche Bankkunde sehe in dem damaligen Betrag von 2,95 einen monatlichen "Mindestzins" für die Überziehung seines Kontos und wies die Klage der Verbraucherschützer ab. Im Fall der Deutschen Bank folgten die Gerichte in Frankfurt am Main der Rechtsauffassung des klagenden Verbands. Den Richtern zufolge erhebt die Deutsche Bank das Entgelt von 6,90 Euro für geringfügige Überziehungen. Die Bank decke damit vor allem ihren buchhalterischen Aufwand ab, den sie aber "für die Erfüllung eigener Pflichten und im eigenen Interesse" selbst erbringen müsse. Die Bank dürfe diese Kosten deshalb nicht auf ihre Kunden abwälzen.

It also integrates with social media analytics to assist in compiling digital evidence.The Unisys “Safe Cities” initiative provides tools and capabilities that can help prevent and combat crime. As a key tool in the Safe Cities portfolio, Digital Investigator goes beyond the capabilities of traditional records management systems to allow organisations to take advantage of information across technological and geographic boundaries. It provides the tools necessary to capture and analyse the increasingly varied and complex data law enforcement professionals need to catch criminals and stop criminal gangs and terrorists.“The Unisys Safe Cities initiative was created to give justice and public safety organisations the solutions they need to better use data from sources like mobile devices and the Internet of Things to create a safe environment for the public,” said Mark Forman, global head of public sector at Unisys. “Digital Investigator represents a critical component of this initiative. It gives police departments a tool set that improves productivity through the ability to handle numerous forms of data across multiple lines of inquiry while linking different pieces of related information.” When it comes to criminal investigations and intelligence handling, the use of data mining to identify suspects early has emerged as a critical challenge. With so much information available from different sources, law enforcement agencies are grappling with how best to collect, collate and analyse all pieces of evidence, including their movements through the justice system as well as their storage and destruction.Digital Investigator addresses this challenge by providing the capabilities needed to efficiently and successfully manage all police incident and investigative information, including:A device-independent public portal for information capture and delivery, enabling citizens to connect to law enforcement agencies to report missing persons, request appointments and receive updates to their requests;Social media analytics integration to stay on top of internet-derived intelligence from a vast array of sources;A single, browser-based application for total information management, tasking, collaboration and analytics;An easy-to-use and cost-effective tool for creating reports and other documents;Advanced search engine capabilities for rapid and relevant results;Certified ability to securely handle critical national security data; andOn-premise and cloud-based deployment options.Digital Investigator is part of Unisys’ portfolio of Safe Cities solutions that also include LineSight™ for advanced targeting analytics related to border security; Unisys Stealth® for advanced security through micro-segmentation as well as identity management; the Unisys Law Enforcement Message Switch for enabling users to easily access disparate information from various federal and state criminal justice information systems; and the Secure Image Management Solution for capturing and aggregating stills imagery, video, audio, multimedia and disk images.

http://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/news/county-durham-man-in-court-for-selling-dodgy-boxes-on-social-media-1-8191863
A County Durham man has been handed a suspended prison sentence for selling illegal goods on social media. Anthony Ayre, 32 of Blackhall, County Durham, advertised devices which allow TV viewers to illegally watch Sky, BT and other subscription channels without signing up on Facebook. He also offered for sale a Sunderland football top and handbags, clothing and jewellery purporting to be made by the likes of Nike, Michael Kors and MAC – all of which were later found to be fake. Ayre, of Dene Road, was taken to court by Durham County Council for ten counts of breaching trademark and copyright laws and has now been given a six week suspended prison sentence. Peterlee magistrates on Monday heard how the council was informed by a neighbouring authority in July 2015 of an individual from County Durham using Facebook to sell TV devices which were later found to contain illegal software which gives viewers access to subscription channels without having to sign up, and counterfeit goods. These goods were being offered at a fraction of the retail price of the items they purported to be. Investigations revealed that Ayre said he had TV boxes with all channels for £100 and could supply items including trademark handbags, purses, jewellery and make-up sets. A search warrant was executed at the defendant’s home in November. During the raid over 40 TV devices were seized as well as a number of suspected counterfeit items which were also found in the property and in Ayre’s vehicle, including clothing and jewellery. The defendant voluntarily attended an interview and replied ‘no comment’ to most questions. The TV boxes seized from Ayre’s home were examined by the regional trading standards Scambusters Team before being forwarded to the Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT) for further assessment. FACT found that the TV devices had the ability to access copyright infringing content from providers such as Sky and BT. Contact was made with Sky which revealed that Ayre did not have a contract with the company and is not permitted to sell devices allowing access to content it owns. Checks were also made with the holders of trademarks over a number of suspected counterfeit items seized from Ayre, all of which were found to be fake. These consisted of items purporting to be a pair of Nike trainers, a MAC make-up set, Michael Kors merchandise consisting of earrings, necklaces, watch, purse and bag and a Sunderland football shirt. Ayre pleaded guilty to the charges with the court hearing he is of previous good character. The defendant was given the six week suspended sentence which will be in place for six months. He was also ordered to pay £200 costs and a £115 victim surcharge. Owen Cleugh, the council’s head of consumer protection, said: “The sale of devices containing software enabling users to view subscription channels without the need to subscribe and counterfeit goods can have a detrimental effect on legitimate traders and industries. “This case should act as a warning to anyone contemplating making a profit in the run up to Christmas by using websites such as Facebook, Gumtree and Shpock to advertise and sell illegal goods. “We would urge members of the public to think long and hard before agreeing to purchases from such sites where you don’t know who the seller is and where you might be buying inferior goods or those which break the law. “You should only buy any kind of goods from reputable, trusted sources where you know exactly what you’re getting.” To report suspected sellers of counterfeit goods, or for more information on your consumer rights, contact the Consumer Helpline on: 03454 04 05 06.

WHO is the worst Prime Minister of all? According to University of Leeds academics, it is David Cameron after Britain defied his wishes and voted to leave the European Union in the referendum which he called. And, according to the left-wing Historical Writers Association this week, it is Margaret Thatcher for “neo-liberalism, deindustrialisation, free market ideology, Scottish poll tax, selling council houses and failing to act on early stages of global warming”. That’s some charge sheet. But judging by the latest volumes of Alastair Campbell’s diaries, which cover the period from 2003-05 when he had left 10 Downing Street following the fallout over the Iraq war, it has to be Gordon Brown for being such a disruptive force. Believe it or not, the media downplayed the power struggle between the mutinous Chancellor and Tony Blair, an interminable battle of wills which stopped the Government from operating effectively and competently according to Mr Campbell’s Outside, Inside book. It was so bad that John Prescott “invited himself” in November 2003 to the Sheffield United versus Burnley match which Mr Campbell was trying to watch with Dick Caborn, the then Sports Minister. “He said it was all about GB wanting to take over,” recorded Mr Campbell. “He said TB was leader and GB had to accept that. If he could, they could carry on and work together. But if they couldn’t, it would be curtains. JP said he knew my view of GB... He said ‘Is this for the diary?’” And so it carried on – October 3, 2004, being a case in point. “TB had seen GB on Wednesday,” noted the diarist. “You’d have loved it, he said. It was a collector’s item. GB – you wanted to see me. “TB – yes. GB – Here I am. TB – I wanted to say that we give it one last go to work together. GB – What is your proposal? TB – My proposal is that we work together, and you co-operate with me, and then one day I help you to take over. “GB – That is not a proposal. TB – Yes it is. GB – No it’s not. TB – Are you saying that unless I give you a date for my departure, you won’t work with me? GB – I need a proposal so I know what the future holds.” And so it went on, day after day. No wonder the country went from boom to bust. It beggars belief that Gordon Brown, a man lacking in personal skills in addition to his economic shortcomings, was actually given the keys to 10 Downing Street – has there ever been a leader more unsuited to high office? – and that Tony Blair was too weak to sack him. If he had, and if Labour had had a meaningful leadership contest when Mr Blair stepped down, would the party be in the mess that it is today? ONE person who opposed London bidding for, and then staging, the 2012 Olympics was the self-same Gordon Brown. This emerged at a soirée in September 2004 when Tessa Jowell, the then Culture Secretary, had dinner with Alastair Campbell and Seb Coe. According to Mr Campbell’s diary note: “Tessa said that one day the full story would be told about all GB’s efforts to block and resist.” Come on, do tell... ANOTHER surprising nugget from the Campbell diaries was the apparent frequency of his speaking engagements with Yorkshire Forward, the profligate regional development agency then run by Tom Riordan who is now Leeds Council’s chief executive. Good value for money? I NOTE that the Department for Transport moved quickly to derail plans to recruit four recent graduates, each on up to £30,000, to “write the story of HS2 from inception to the present day”. Which official agreed to this hare-brained scheme to write the 21st century equivalent of Thomas the Tank Engine in the first place? We’re talking £120,000 here. Long-suffering commuters have a right to know. HOW can the Government expect community pharmacies to be a patient’s first port of call for the NHS, and for the diagnosis of minor ailments, when thousands of branches face closure because of Department of Health cuts? TALKING of imponderables, can the money-grabbing Scottish Nationalists explain why they want to leave the United Kingdom in the cause of independence, but join the European Union where they will be at the mercy of Brussels? The only way to counter Nicola Sturgeon’s opportunism is for Theresa May to include the Barnett Formula, which gives the Scots more public money than hard-pressed regions like Yorkshire, in her Brexit renegotiations. PROBLEMS with the labelling of British dairy produce have again been highlighted in Parliament, this time by Environment Select Committee chairman Neil Parish. I can’t understand why Defra – headed by the Brexiteer Andrea Leadsom – is dithering. Let’s make sure the British flag is on milk, cheese and butter produced here now – and not wait to leave the EU. THE poignancy was palpable as Aberfan fell silent yesterday to remember the 116 children and 28 adult skilled when an avalanche of coal waste submerged a village school in one of the UK’s worst ever peacetime disasters, one which haunts mining communities to this day. It is the most tragic of reminders of what can happen when short cuts are taken with ‘health and safety’, a life and death concept which, sadly, is treated with disdain and glibness by too many cavalier people and organisations today. Let’s hope they, too, paused and reflected on a tragedy like no other. BRITISH Gas is the latest to discriminate against the elderly – or those without internet access. It has sent out reminders to households to book their annual boiler service – and for customers to call a designated number. Yet the answerphone on the number in question says British Gas can only accept bookings online. And it has the temerity to call itself a public service... GOOD to see Yorkshire’s Olympic and Parlaympic heroes receive such a warm welcome in the Manchester rain on Monday. They’re made of sterner stuff than world-record £90m footballer Paul Pogba who had to wear gloves for that evening’s match between Manchester United and Liverpool. Perhaps a day’s training with the Brownlee brothers would sort him out? [email protected]

The Calix partnership enables Ucom to take this vision to the next level, once again transforming the broadband landscape in our country.” Ucom’s leader will be sharing more information about his company’s plans for NG-PON2 during a panel discussion titled “NG-PON2: The Future is Here Today,” moderated by Julie Kunstler, principal consultant at Ovum, along with representatives from AT&T, Verizon, and Vodafone Group, tomorrow at 9 am GMT in the Service Monetization Track Room at the Broadband World Forum, at the ExCeL Convention Centre in London.“As a market leader in deploying world-class NG-PON2 services via the combined Calix suite of AXOS, Compass cloud services, and E-Series systems in Armenia, Ucom will continue to differentiate itself in the market and stay ahead of all other service providers in the country,” said Joseph Haddad, area vice president, international markets at Calix. “NG-PON2 will be truly transformative for service providers like Ucom, who are looking to reap the benefits of a converged services network to combine mobile, business, and residential services onto one network, and for countries like Armenia, whose citizens are craving advanced broadband services.

France urges Turkey to respect rights in aftermath of coup A A Share via Email ANKARA, Turkey — France's foreign minister has urged Turkey to respect rights and freedoms in the aftermath of a failed coup, saying democracy is the best Jean-Marc Ayrault said in Ankara on Monday that France understands Turkey's need to pursue the coup plotters but said the country must respect the rule of law. Turkey declared a 90-day state of emergency and began a massive crackdown on a movement led by a U.S.-based Muslim cleric whom it accuses of orchestrating the failed coup. The state of emergency, which was extended this month by another 90 days, allows authorities to detain suspects for up to 30 days and limits their access to lawyers. Ayrault says: "lawyers must be able to conduct their profession freely."

A charity that specialises in helping people with disabilities and mental illness held a special workshop with TV presenter Sian Lloyd. Advance has been going for the past 40 years, specialising in housing and support for people in need. The charity supports thousands of people at home, work and in the community, who are disadvantaged because of their health or their disability. Advance helps those people to gain more choice, more control, more independence and more opportunities in their lives. Last week members of a local writing group run by Advance were joined by television presenter, writer, and meteorologist, Sian Lloyd, for their final group session. The group, which was led by local author and life coach, Eileen Mulligan, received tips and advice from Sian about how to write a travel blog. Inspired by Sian, the group wrote their own travel blogs, which they shared with each other at the end of the session. For many of Advance’s customers the service provided to them can be life-changing. One of the students in the writing group said: “I have been with the charity for 30 years and it is always there. Without Advance I would be homeless and I would not know where to go.” Sian Lloyd said: “What an amazing day,I had a great time. I am flabbergasted at the creativity of the students. “Charities like Advance are crucial – vulnerable people are now flourishing because of Advance. “I learnt so much by being in their company and how tough daily life is for them. It is so sad funding is being withdrawn from vital projects like this.” Georgina Smyth, who is the Leamington centre manager, said: “At the moment, there are significant financial pressures on social care and supported housing, which is having an impact on our customers. “The wellbeing of the people we support is really important to us, which is why we provide our customers with the opportunity to take part in creative community groups to learn new skills and build networks. “We were thrilled that Sian wanted to come and find out more about what we do; and our customers very much enjoyed learning how to write their own travel blogs.”

The Latest: Rolling Stone writer tells of frat house visit A A Share via Email CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — The Latest on the defamation trial against Rolling Stone magazine over its since-retracted story about a woman's gang rape at the University of Virginia(all times local): ___ 10:30 a.m. The author of a discredited Rolling Stone magazine article is telling jurors about her visit to a University of Virginia fraternity house, where a woman claimed she was raped. Sabrina Rubin Erdely continued her testimony Monday in a court case over the article. University administrator Nicole Eramo has sued the magazine for $7.8 million, claiming the article made her its "chief villain" and was defamatory. The article tells the story of a woman identified only as "Jackie," who claimed she was gang-raped. A police investigation found no evidence to back up the claims. Erdely says she visited the Phi Kappa Psi house in September 2014 to determine whether Jackie's description of it matched reality. She said she didn't identify herself as a reporter and asked to use the restroom to gain access. Erdely acknowledged that she didn't try to interview fraternity brothers while she was there or ask whether they knew the men Jackie said had attacked her. ___ 3:30 a.m. Jurors are heading back to court for the second week of the defamation trial against Rolling Stone magazine over its 2014 story about a rape at the University of Virginia. University of Virginia administrator Nicole Eramo is seeking $7.8 million from the magazine over its portrayal of her in Sabrina Rubin Erdely's article "A Rape on Campus." The story told the harrowing account of a woman identified only as "Jackie," who claimed she was brutally gang raped by seven men. A police investigation later found no evidence to back up Jackie's claims. Jurors are expected this week to watch a video of "Jackie's" deposition, which was taken in April. The trial, which began last Monday, is expected to last 12 days.

Amazon und Netflix greifen an, Telekomanbieter schlagen zu Wie die US-Medienbranche filetiert wird Comcast schluckte NBC, Verizon schluckt Yahoo, AT&T will Time Warner schlucken: US-Medienunternehmen stehen stark unter Druck, seit Amazon und Netflix ihnen Kunden abjagen und Telekomriesen auf Firmenjagd gehen. Lediglich die Kartellwächter könnten die Neuordnung in der Branche stoppen. Das TV-Geschäft steckt in einer weitreichenden Umwälzung. Vor allem jüngere Menschen schauen ihre Lieblings-Serien und -Filme immer öfter unterwegs über Tablets oder Smartphones, also nicht mehr zu Hause am Fernseher mit dem traditionellen Kabelanschluss. Großkonzerne auch aus anderen Branchen sehen darin erhebliche Chancen und greifen tief in die Tasche, um sich ihren Teil am Kuchen zu sichern. Jüngstes Beispiel: Der Telekom-Riese AT&T will für mehr als 85 Milliarden Dollar die Time Warner Gruppe Börsen-Chart zeigen schlucken, zu der unter anderem der Pay-TV-Sender HBO, der Nachrichtenkanal CNN und das Filmstudio Warner Bros gehören. Solche klassischen Medienunternehmen wie HBO, CNN und Warner Bros stehen zunehmend unter Druck. Online-Videotheken wie Netflix und Hulu wachsen rasant. Auch der Online-Handelsgigant Amazon Börsen-Chart zeigen drängt immer stärker in den Medienbereich und offeriert Kunden selbst produzierte Inhalte. Die neuen Anbieter sorgten für deutlich mehr Wettbewerb, sagt Investor Salvatore Muoio, der an mehrere Medienfirmen beteiligt ist, darunter auch Time Warner. "Die Branche braucht eine Konsolidierung." Gelegenheiten wittern hier Infrastrukturanbieter wie AT&T, Verizon und Comcast, die in den USA im Mobilfunk und im Kabelsektor führend sind. Sie wollen ihr Geschäft, das ebenfalls hart umkämpft ist, auf eine breitere Basis stellen, mehr Umsatz erzielen und Kunden enger binden. Als am Freitag erste Spekulationen über den Deal von AT&T und Time Warner bekanntwurden, standen an der Börse sofort zahlreiche Firmen im Fokus, die Analysten zufolge ebenfalls Käufer anlocken könnten. Betroffen waren etwa Discovery Communications, AMC Networks und Scripps Networks Interactive, deren Kurse deutlich zulegten. Discovery und AMC Networks - die nächsten Übernahmekandidaten? Den Startschuss gab 2011 Comcast mit der Übernahme von NBC Universal. Zuletzt schluckte der Kabelanbieter auch das Trickfilmstudio DreamWorks Animation. Comcast will mit den Deals kontrollieren, wie TV-Sendungen und Filme produziert werden und wie diese zum Kunden kommen. Verizon will sich gerade das Kerngeschäft von Yahoo einverleiben, nachdem AOL bereits gekauft wurde. Hintergrund ist, dass der Mobilfunkmarkt in vielen Ländern gesättigt ist und die Wachstumsraten vergangener Tage passé sind. Auch AT&T ist bereits aktiv geworden. So wurden im vergangenen Jahr 48,5 Milliarden Dollar in den Satelliten-TV-Anbieter DirecTV investiert. Zudem gibt es im Video-Streaming-Bereich ein Joint Venture. Fusionen wie zwischen AT&T und Time Warner werden als vertikale Zusammenschlüsse bezeichnet, da sie unterschiedliche Branchen umfassen. AT&T-Chef Randall Stephenson spricht von einer "perfekten Verbindung von zwei Firmen mit komplementären Stärken". Mit den Inhalten werde AT&T mehr Optionen haben, um Werbekunden anzulocken. Doch in der US-Politik stoßen die Pläne auf Widerstand. Die beiden Präsidentschaftsanwärter Hillary Clinton und Donald Trump äußerten wettbewerbsrechtliche Bedenken. Aus beiden Lagern wurden Warnungen vor einer Konzentration im Medien- und im Telekomgeschäft laut. Um am Ende grünes Licht für den Deal zu bekommen, wird AT&T womöglich große Zugeständnisse machen müssen. Denn es wird mit einer sehr intensiven Kartellprüfung gerechnet. Comcast musste seinerzeit für den Kauf von NBC Universal 150 Auflagen zustimmen, etwa Abstrichen bei der Beteiligung Hulu und der Zusage, NBC-Programme auch konkurrierenden Streaming-Diensten zugänglich zu machen. von David Shepardson und Jessica Toonkel, Reuters © manager magazin 2016 Alle Rechte vorbehalten Vervielfältigung nur mit Genehmigung der manager magazin Verlagsgesellschaft mbH

Under kvällen på Gamla Tingshuset kommer den lokala u-landsföreningen JIDCA att berätta om sitt arbete i Palestina. Föreningen stöttar en skola för funktionshindrade barn i Al Bireh utanför Ramallah. – Just nu samlar vi in pengar till en rehabiliteringsbassäng. Skolan har 70 barn i dag och 400 barn står i kö, säger Christina Hedin. Totalt behövs 100 000 kronor för att kunna bygga bassängen och Christina Hedin hoppas att de får in 10 000 kronor under kvällen den 25 oktober. Enligt henne är barn med funktionshinder en väldigt undanskuffad grupp i det Palestinska samhället och det är otroligt viktigt för föräldrarna, barnen och skolan att få stöttning. – I ett samhälle som inte är väl fungerande blir en sådan här grupp inte en prioriterad grupp, säger Christina Hedin. Utöver att JIDCA berättar om sitt projekt är Anna Werner, förbundsordförande i Palestinagrupperna i Sverige, inbjuden att berätta om hur situationen i Palestina ser ut i dag.

Ford mustang to ikona amerykańskiej motoryzacji istniejąca od przeszło pół wieku. To kultowy samochód sportowy. A jego najnowsza generacja wreszcie jest dostępna w Europie i tak się spodobała kierowcom, że do tej pory sprzedano ponad 21 tys. sztuk tego modelu. W Polsce nie ma sobie równych… Ford mustang zadebiutował w USA w 1964 roku. Przez ponad pół wieku tani samochód dla młodych ludzi stał się maszyną kultową i pożądaną. Mimo to amerykański producent skąpił go Europejczykom, aż wreszcie w ubiegłym roku po 51 latach na Starym Kontynencie zadebiutowała najnowsza generacje tego auta i… została przebojem. Które kraje są rajem dla mustangów? Okazuje się, że z ponad 21 tys. sztuk, które Ford sprzedał w Europie, 1600 egzemplarzy trafiło do Belgii. Producent wylicza, że jeden samochód przypada na 4693 spośród 7 659 000 kierowców z tego kraju - tak wysokiego odsetka nie zanotowano w żadnym innym państwie europejskim. Ponad połowa nowych mustangów sprzedanych od chwili wprowadzenia tego modelu na rynek w Europie trafiła do Belgii, Niemiec i Wielkiej Brytanii. Niemcy kupili 7281 sztuk (1 na 7700 kierowców), a do Wielkiej Brytanii trafiło 4761 aut (1 na 7743 kierowców). Pod względem sprzedaży, na trzecim miejscu znajduje się Francja (2126 egzemplarzy), a na czwartym Belgia, która jest jednym z kilku krajów o mniejszej liczbie ludności, jak Szwecja, Szwajcaria i Czechy, w których notuje się bardzo duży popyt na mustanga. Mustang królem w Polsce Ford mustang jest również numerem jeden w rankingu sprzedaży samochodów sportowych wśród wszystkich marek popularnych oraz luksusowych oferujących tego typu auta w Polsce. Według bazy danych CEPiK od stycznia do września tego roku zarejestrowanych zostało 391 mustangów. Drugie miejsce zajmuje mazda MX-5 (133 sztuki). Podium zamyka volkswagen scirocco (32 egzemplarze). Czwartą w kolejności toyotę GT86 wybrało 13 kierowców, czyli 30 razy mniej niż mustanga. Ford mustang jest dostępny do wyboru z silnikiem 5.0 V8/421 KM (od 180 tys. zł) i jednostką turbobenzynową 2,3 EcoBoost/317 KM (od 159 tys. zł) oraz w wersji fastback i convertible. Najbardziej popularnymi kolorami nadwozia są czerwony, szary i czarny, przy czym 72 proc. kierowców wybiera odmianę fastback, a 64 proc. decyduje się na silnik V8. Modele EcoBoost są najbardziej popularne w południowej Europie. W porównaniu z ubiegłym rokiem sprzedaż samochodów Ford Performance na Starym Kontynencie podwoiła się. Poza mustangiem w ofercie są jeszcze focus RS i ST oraz fiesta ST.

Service Archiv Kategorien Archive Categories Kongresse Messen Presse-Treffen Pressekonferenzen Veranstaltungen Sonstige PR-Kategorien MyAccount PR Wissen (firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwired) -- 10/17/16 -- (Family Features) As the weather gets colder, it can be harder to motivate kids to step away from their computers and devices and get off the couch. However, it's essential for kids to participate in active play all year round. According to research from the , regular physical activity helps build and maintain healthy bones and muscles, promotes psychological well-being and reduces feelings of depression and anxiety. Sadly, physical activity is becoming less of a priority in kids' daily routines. A recent survey conducted by Let's Play, an initiative from Dr Pepper Snapple Group to make active play a daily priority, found that 64 percent of parents said busy schedules stand in the way of more active play for their children, up from 56 percent in 2015. Each season brings its own opportunities for play, and fall is no exception. Families can beat the cold weather blues and stay active together by trying some of the following activities: Even though it's chilly outside, your family can still get out and enjoy the outdoors. Bundle up and take a nature hike with your kids around the neighborhood or at a local, national or state park. Encourage your kids to collect items like pinecones, acorns and leaves as you go and to be on the lookout for wildlife to observe. After the hike, take out art and craft supplies and help them create projects with the items they found. When a really cold day comes along, send your kids on a fun and active scavenger hunt around the house, searching for items that you can hide in advance. Work together as a family to locate the items or create some friendly family competition to see who can find all the items first. Having the family move around the house with a mission prevents the temptation of staying on the couch in front of the television all day. Whether you are playing a favorite sport or learning a new one, it is always more fun with other people. Longer stretches of active play are often more likely to occur with friends or siblings. Sign your children up for an indoor sport or class they have never tried before, such as gymnastics, rock climbing, swimming or dance. This allows your children to learn something new, meet kids their age and be active for an extended period of time. While giving back is always in season, this time of year is a perfect opportunity to teach kids about giving back to those in need and being grateful for what they have. Sign the whole family up to volunteer at a local soup kitchen, participate in a toy drive for a children's hospital or help out at an animal rescue shelter. Your children will not only be active, but will also grow emotionally, socially and intellectually as a result.

City in New York to get license plate readers amid slayings A A Share via Email BRENTWOOD, N.Y. — Officials say a city in New York is installing dozens of license plate readers to help investigators collect key data amid a string of brutal killings. Officials say about 50 cameras will be placed at roughly 20 locations throughout Brentwood, on Long Island. Four Brentwood High School teens have been found dead over the past several weeks. The skeletal remains of an 18-year-old were also found in the city last week. Police say the 18-year-old was a known MS-13 gang member. Suffolk County police officials tell Newsday they want to install the cameras in the coming months. The readers capture plate information that can then be checked against a list of wanted suspects, missing people and stolen vehicles. Police say $1 million in state funding will pay for the cameras.

Providing every cloud telephony and business communication service per user per month, financial services organisations can ensure compliance with increasingly stringent regulations, while seamlessly switching between audio, video and messaging from a single dashboard.The platform automatically records and archives all communications, and users are able to retrieve and playback calls effortlessly. Call logs can be searched via date, time, duration, location, participants and keywords. Voice verification also adds a further layer of security around customer identification, and all archived data is encrypted. These features ensure financial services organisations remain compliant with the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID), Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), as well as the requirements of The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Central Bank and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Furthermore, with MiFID II due to come into effect in 2018, the platform future-proofs organisations and prepares them for upcoming requirements. These include all those involved in trading, who will be required to have all calls recorded and archived for five years.“Strict regulations have historically prevented the financial services industry from taking full advantage of the cloud,” said Edward Grant, COO at Solgari. “Businesses have found it difficult to juggle innovation and compliance, with employees inevitably finding ways to cut corners that leave the company vulnerable to regulatory fines. However, our cloud business communication software platform is a game changer. Not only do businesses suddenly have all services at their fingertips, but all communications are recorded and stored, enabling them to be retrieved easily if requested by the FCA, for example. “Financial services organisations can mitigate the risk of ever-increasing penalties for non-compliance, all the while increasing the efficiency of communications internally and to partners and customers,” continued Grant.The complete platform consists of a number of services, with its modular design enabling organisations to choose the options that suit their requirements. Services and their features can be added or removed as needed, avoiding the issue of large upfront investment in enterprise solutions that soon become a burden to budgets and infrastructure.The services with enhanced features include:SUAS – able to run Solgari Callview, Reports and Analyser, businesses can easily search and listen to archived calls & video meetings, run PBX and ACD reports, and analyse overall system use. Word and phrase searching capability within archived calls to address compliance and dispute resolution.Solgari Link – enables users to seamlessly integrate voice and video communications capabilities to all the leading CRM and back-office systems in the market, such as Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce and BullhornSolgari Connect – offers browser-based inbound communications from the corporate website through Solgari’s WebRTC. Customer inbound communications are completely free on Wi-Fi and extension numbers can be shared across numerous devices so that users are always within contact.

Health minister announces new Food Guide overhaul, new labelling rules A A Share via Email MONTREAL — Health Minister Jane Philpott says the government intends to change the country's Food Guide and overhaul food labelling rules as part of an effort to make Canadians healthier. Philpott announced the opening of the consultations today during a speech to the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress in Montreal. The Food Guide revision will include an online consultation on Health Canada's website with health professionals and everyday Canadians until Dec. 8. The guide was last updated in 2007 and Philpott says she's heard from Canadians they find it difficult to navigate or apply its recommendations. The federal Health Department aims to have updated dietary guidelines by the end of 2018 that will reflect the most up-to-date scientific evidence on diet and health. Philpott says new labelling norms for certain products will also be introduced, notably to better identify different types of sugars.

http://www.stamfordmercury.co.uk/news/decision-on-240-homes-plan-for-market-deeping-is-deferred-by-council-1-7638945
A plan to build 240 homes in Market Deeping has been delayed after councillors decided to defer on Tuesday. Fourteen reasons were given for deferring the Larkfleet Homes plan for the site between Northfield Road and Towngate East with traffic, access to the site and density and character of the properties among them. The plan includes road access from both Northfield Road and Towngate East, pedestrian and cycle links, public open space with playareas and landscaping. Access to the south of the site from Towngate East has been among the most controversial aspects of the plan as traffic would come out on to a busy road near the roundabout junction with Godsey Lane. Ashley Baxter, district councillor for Market and West Deeping, spoke as an objector to the development control ommittee at South Kesteven District Council. He said he had no problem with the principle of the design, saying the site would be built upon sooner or later. But he said there was a ‘flawed’ analysis of the traffic situation. Coun Baxter said: “The access to the south of the site should be moved to the west so it is much further away from the mini roundabout at the top of Godsey Lane. Putting a site access for 240 houses so close to this roundabout is downright irresponsible.” Anne Nott, representing Towngate East residents, also agreed with this view. Coun Baxter said a 30mph limit should be placed on Northfield Road when the estate is built. He also said it looked like the main playarea in the plan had been ‘crowbarred’ in and that, after several changes, the current plan looked like a ‘barracks-style’ development. Market Deeping town councillor Pauline Redshaw told the committee that concerns about access had been raised ever since the first consultation in 2013. She said the report from the highways department, which has no objections to the plan, did not address their concerns. Objector Pamela Steel said objectors had asked for two access points on Northfield Road instead of the one on to Towngate East for safety reasons and to prevent the estate being used as a rat run. Mark Mann, representing Larkfleet, said the planned homes were of a ‘high quality design’ which in many cases would include use solar panels. There would also be a number of starter and affordable homes. The houses on the site would range from one bedroom to five. Mr Mann said the application ‘demonstrated a commitment by Larkfleet to deliver these much needed homes’. On deferring the decision, after a three-hour discussion, the committee also asked for a number of other aspects of the plan to be looked into including the possibility of extending footpaths on the edge of the site, a review of the comments made by the town council, and a look at how the biodiversity of the site could be improved. The NHS will also be approached to see if it would consider benefiting from a Section 106 agreement whereby the doctors’ surgery could receive money to help it expand. It was reported the NHS had earlier refused this. Thirteen committee members voted in favour of deferring the decision and one abstained.

Grażyna Szapołowska nigdy nie narzekała na brak męskiego zainteresowania. Piękna aktorka potrafiła oczarować swoim seksapilem nawet możnych tego świata. Wyraz uwielbienia słał jej swego czasu sam premier Rosji. W najnowszym wywiadzie dla magazynu "Viva!", Grażyna Szapołowska opowiedziała między innymi o tym, jak w latach 90. uwodził ją Wiktor Czernomyrdin, ówczesny premier Rosji: Pod moimi drzwiami w hotelu Pribałtckaja co wieczór stał bukiet róż od niego i cygańska orkiestra grała rosyjskie romanse. Wszystko po to, żebym zeszła na dół. A ja pracowałam i chciałam być wyspana. Powiedziałam: "Dziubasku, po co mi ta orkiestra". Nigdy nie imponowali mi mężczyźni, którzy swoim stanem posiadania mogliby wnieść do mojego życia coś ciekawszego niż grający na saksofonie łapserdak, który zbiera pieniądze do kapelusza. Dla mnie rozmowa z takim człowiekiem z ulicy jest bardziej pociągająca niż obrzucanie kwiatami przez premiera Rosji. Luksus nie polega tylko na majątku i władzy. Szapołowska wyznała także, że nie zawsze żyła na tak wysokim poziomie, jak obecnie. Nawet będąc już aktorką, musiała zmagać się z biedą i prosić o pomoc wojskowych: Wkładałam do pieca drewno, żeby choć trochę się ogrzać, spałam otulona w koce, z wełnianą czapką na głowie, żeby jakoś dotrzymać do rana i samolotem wylecieć na Węgry czy do Francji, żeby dalej kręcić film. Futro jeździło ze mną, bo bałam się, że mi je ukradną. Na wynajęte maleńkie mieszkanko na Rutkowskiego szła cała moja teatralna pensja. Pomyślałam wtedy, że muszę kogoś poprosić o pomoc. Doradzono mi, żeby zwrócić się do wojska. Napisałam więc list do generała Janiszewskiego. Niedługo potem dostałam wiadomość, że pan generał chce mnie widzieć. To było po filmie "Lata dwudzieste... lata trzydzieste". Generał przyjął mnie w swoim gabinecie i spytał: "Co panią do mnie sprowadza?". A ja: "Bieda, panie generale, bo nie mam gdzie mieszkać, a wychowuję małą córeczkę". A on na to: "Pani? Przecież pani mieszka w pałacu, sam widziałem". Oto, co znaczy magia filmu.

Nova Scotia community remembers Harley Lawrence Two dozen people gathered out of the wet weather on Sunday to remember Harley Lawrence three years after the homeless man died. A A Share via Email Two dozen people gathered out of the wet weather on Oct. 23 to remember Harley Lawrence three years after the homeless man died. “The tragic death of Harley Lawrence did much to open our eyes and soften our hearts to the plight of those who are on the street,” said John Andrew of Open Arms. Harley's brother, Ron Lawrence, requested the evening be a night to remember all those who suffer around us, but especially those who have been lost to addiction, mental illness or died on the street. Ron noted that his brother found friends on the street who helped him, while Nancy Drennan recalled her conversations with Harley. “He was a sweet, sweet man,” she said. The bus shelter where Harley spent his last days was across Commercial Street from the Serenity Lindsay Annapolis Valley Funeral Home, where Drennan works and where his memorial took place Oct. 23. Andrew commented that the "journey of life can include a struggle in slippery pit of mental illness or addiction." He added that it would be wrong to define Berwick or the Annapolis Valley by Harley’s violent end. Andrew said the tragedy opened peoples’ hearts to the destitute, castoff and homeless. “There are many people in our culture who are limping. We have to keep our hearts and eyes open,” Andrew said. “People in turmoil don’t know where to go.” A memorial garden has been cultivated across the road from the bus shelter that was set on fire causing 62-year-old Harley’s death. Two men were found responsible for Harley’s murder. They are now in prison.

En man från Östersunds kommun har gjort sig skyldig till grovt rattfylleri samt två fall av olovlig körning. Mannen arbetade som polis men brottet ska ha skett på mannens fritid. Utöver 80 timmars samhällstjänst förlorar mannen jobbet och då det framkommit att mannen har alkoholproblem kommer han också att få hjälp med sitt alkoholmissbruk. Polismannen greps den 23 april efter att ha kört runt på olika gator i Östersund med en alkoholkoncentration på 0.95 milligram per liter i utandningsluften. På grund av alkoholkoncentrationen samt att mannen vid flera tillfällen kört över i fel körbana, varit nära att krocka med ett annat fordon och en refug bedömmer Östersunds Tingsrätt rattfyllan som grov. Mannen hade en vodkaflaska i bilen som beslagtogs av polisen. Mannen var inte i tjänst när brottet begicks. Utöver rattfyllan döms mannen för tre fall av olovlig körning då han kört motorcykel och bil trots att hans körkort varit indraget.
