The price and range of the five-seater should make the vehicle appeal to new types of customers and could boost interest in other electric vehicles.
Chief executive Elon Musk said his goal was to produce about 500,000 vehicles a year once production is at full speed.
Within a day of the launch, Mr Musk tweeted that 180,000 vehicles had been pre-ordered.
He added that, if the average price tag ended up at $42,000 (£29,500), this would equate to $7.5bn in one day.
The California-based company needs the vehicle to prove popular if it is to stay in business, though pre-orders of the Model 3 will not necessarily all translate to actual sales when the car is released.
The first deliveries of the vehicle are scheduled to start in late 2017, and it can be ordered in advance in dozens of countries, including the UK, Ireland, Brazil, India, China and New Zealand.
The basic model will start at $35,000 (£24,423) and have a range of at least 215 miles (346km) per charge.
Tesla delivered 50,580 vehicles last year. Most of those were its Model S saloon,which overtook Nissan’s Leaf to become the world’s best selling pure-electric vehicle.
But the firm still posted a net loss of $889m (£620m) for 2015, partly because it spent $718m on research and development over the period.
It left Tesla with cash reserves of $1.2bn, down from $1.9bn a year earlier.
“For a long time there had been questions about the long term viability of Tesla,” commented Jessica Caldwell, an industry analyst at the car research site Edmunds.
“With niche products like the Model S and the Model X, it hasn’t been hitting any sales targets that would sustain its business.
“So, launching what it hopes will be high-volume vehicle is going to show if it can become a fully-fledged auto company that will succeed in the long-term rather than one that pumps out a few cool cars and then goes bust, as we’ve seen happen with other electric car start-ups such as Fisker.”
Other details provided about the Model 3 included:
- The base model will accelerate from zero to 60mph (97km/h) in less than six seconds, other models will go faster
- It will include the “autopilot” safety features found in existing models, which allow the cars to steer themselves and avoid collisions
- It will support “supercharging” as standard, allowing the cars to recharge more quickly at special power stations. Tesla aims to double the number of places offering supercharging to about 7,200 worldwide by the end of 2017
- It provides storage room at the front and rear of the vehicle
Mr Musk added that the car should feel more spacious to passengers than similar-sized petrol-based cars because of design decisions Tesla could make by not using a combustion engine.
“You are sitting a little further forward,” he explained. “That’s what gives you the legroom to have five adults.”
“And the rear roof area is actually one continuous pane of glass.
“The reason that that’s great is because it gives you an amazing feeling of openness. So, it has by far the best roominess of any car of this size.”
In scenes more commonly associated with smartphone launches than those of vehicles, hundreds of people queued outside Tesla stores in the US to try to secure one of the first Model 3s.
They had to pay a $1,000 deposit to reserve the car before they had even seen it. The company also began taking online orders an hour before its press event had begun.
At the end of his presentation, Mr Musk said that Tesla had already received more than 115,000 orders.
The move should help the firm head off competition from other forthcoming similarly-priced electric cars that will become available first, including General Motors’ Chevy Bolt and BYD’s Qin EV300.
Part of the incentive to commit early is that a $7,500 tax credit offered to US buyers is set to be pulled once the company has sold 200,000 vehicles in the country.
“If you look at the US auto market, the average purchase price is about $33,000, which is close to what the target for the Model 3 is,” said Ms Caldwell.
“So, it becomes less of that pie-in-the-sky dream car and something that the average person can actually afford.
“That’s why people are excited about it in non-traditional Tesla markets – places outside of San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles – and why we saw lines in places like Houston and Arizona.”

You could call it Tesla’s Kickstarter campaign.
At tonight’s event, computers were set up for people to throw their cash into Elon Musk’s coffers to fund the Model 3 project.
One of them was 16-year-old Adam Metcalf, there with his father, who had saved up “all the allowance I’ve ever had” to put down a deposit for what will be his first car.
Adam hopes to get into the driver seat when it launches at the end of next year. He’ll need a serious allowance, mind, even if government subsidies eat into the $35,000 headline price.
If Adam can’t quite stretch that far, his deposit will be refunded. Which makes you wonder – how many of the 115,000 pre-orders (and counting) will turn into actual sales? As I say, it’s like the crowdfunded pitches on Kickstarter. You don’t quite know if the end product will be the success promised at launch.
No doubt about it, Musk needs to sell a lot of the Model 3.
While lining up to get in, I spoke to the managing director of a major European investment bank, who didn’t want to be named.
He said the eccentric, rocket-making Musk remains a popular figure, of course, but that patience is quickly running out. Investors are demanding profitability this year – Musk says he can deliver.

Many people are becoming more comfortable talking about the personal toll mental health problems can take.
But a new government report estimates the mounting financial cost to the nation.
Poor mental health drains up to £99 billion from the British economy every year, the study has found.
Around 300,000 people have to leave their jobs every year because of mental health struggles, according to the Thriving at Work report for the Department of Work and Pensions and the Department of Health.
Employers simply don’t understand the crucial role they can play
Paul Farmer, one of the review’s authors and the chief executive of the charity Mind, said employers must do more to provide support.
“In many instances employers simply don’t understand the crucial role they can play, or know where to go for advice and support,” Farmer said.
“Opportunities are missed to prevent poor mental health and ensure that employees who may be struggling get the support they need.”
— Mental Health Fdn (@mentalhealth) October 26, 2017
Prime Minister Theresa May has vowed to follow up on the report’s recommendations.
Farmer and the other authors have proposed an online portal on mental health, and suggested every employers is made to come up with a “mental health at work” plan.
The prime minister said: “It is only by making this an everyday concern for everyone that we change the way we see mental illness, so that striving to improve your mental health – whether at work or at home – is seen as just as positive as improving our physical well-being.”
May previously told The Big Issue she wanted to “tackle the burning injustice that people with mental health issues experience when they find there is not enough help at hand.”
She pledged to “improve prevention in the workplace” and “invest in training in every school, so that teachers and staff are better able to identify and respond to mental illness early.”

The liberalisation of the Russian bond market which is taking place at the moment was welcomed by panellists at the Moscow Exchange Group’s event in London yesterday.
Clearstream plans to open a direct account with Russia’s new central securities depository (CSD) by year end, following the creation of the entity earlier this week.
Russian non-banking financial organisations have now gained easier access to the foreign securities market through Russia’s National Settlement Depository (NSD).
Russia’s National Settlement Depository (NSD) has submitted the last set of documents required for obtaining the status of a central securities depository from the Federal Financial Markets Service (FFMS).
“First move” foreign investors, such as hedge funds, have started buying into the Russian local bond market, following the approval of Euroclear by Russia’s Federal Service for Financial Markets (FSFR) to offer services for a range of Russian debt securities.
After months of anticipation, Euroclear Bank has finally gained approval from Russia’s Federal Financial Markets Service to offer services for a range of Russian debt securities.
The Russian ruble has rallied over the last two weeks, gaining 3.4% since the end of last month. However, economic analysis suggests the currency will weaken in the long term.

In a minute’s time, you can see a beekeeper remove tens of thousands of bees from a compost bin with her bare hands. Watch a man cut open a tree with a chainsaw, water spewing out of it like a gaping wound. Or see a bare patch of desert transformed into a luxury oasis dotted with waterfalls and palm trees in the snap of a finger.
These normally humdrum tasks have become fodder for viral videos on TikTok, where clips of seemingly dull jobs like landscaping, car detailing, and power washing regularly rack up millions of views. The app has turned sometimes-hidden jobs or dirty behind-the-scenes necessities into soothing, thrilling, or otherwise intriguing videos.
It’s also presented an opportunity for enthusiastic business owners, letting them use the platform’s viral mechanics as a means for advertising, and for reaching an international audience far beyond the region they’d normally serve.
“People on the other side of the world are seeing my videos,” said Kelita Butler, who’s had videos go viral that show her filling tubes of lip gloss for her Fairborn, Ohio-based company TopSecret Bundles. “I got an order in Finland, an order in Ireland. People that I probably will never even meet face to face are seeing my products and what I’m doing.”
TikTok has been such a successful platform for Danny Wang, the founder of a luxury pool landscaping company in Orange County, California, that it’s become pretty much his entire job. Wang regularly posts videos of the homes and yards his company transforms from bland, blank spaces into what look like million-dollar resorts. He’d gotten some traction posting before-and-after photos on Instagram. But it wasn’t until he applied the format to video and put it on TikTok that his work started going viral.
A typical clip will show a blank backyard covered in dirt, a caption promising something good is about to come — “Client: can you make my pockets hurt?” — followed by a glamorous reveal after the beat drops. Wang always includes a genie emoji, like he’s simply poofing these dreamy projects into existence.
“Our projects are very out there so that alone draws a lot of attention,” Wang said. “It’s different. It’s just interesting. It replaces the television.”
TikTok’s much-discussed algorithm is the big reason these videos have succeeded. Whereas on Instagram or YouTube, you might have to seek these videos out — I certainly have never searched for cool logging videos — TikTok is built around serving up anything its algorithm deems addictive to viewers at large. Butler and Wang both use YouTube and Facebook too, but neither has seen the kind of wild, out-of-nowhere success that TikTok gifted them. The platform’s short time limit also demands that videos are simple and focused, encouraging creators to make clips that are catchy up front, easy to follow along with, and that cut out before you lose interest.
The best small business videos capture your attention with something new and unexpected, like a sawed-off wedge of wood falling out of a huge tree or bright pink lip gloss flowing from a stark white machine. They take you behind the scenes of a small world you’d otherwise know nothing about — and may not have even known you could seek out.
“I didn’t realize that people might not know what I do exists,” said Erika Thompson, who operates the Austin-based Texas Beeworks. A recent video shows Thompson in jeans and a tank top — “the veil, suit, and gloves cause you to lose a lot of dexterity” — taking a tree branch covered in a thick swarm of bees and banging it against a box, toppling the bees into the hive-like storage structure below. “Bees have pretty tough exoskeletons, so the short drop doesn’t harm them at all,” Thompson says in the video.
At the same time, business owners have found clear patterns to what their audiences like, and they may have to stick to them to keep blowing up. Butler said she’ll film herself filling up lip gloss bottles she doesn’t even need yet, just because that’s what her fans like to see. Thompson said viewers respond strongest to her bee removal videos, which show her scooping thousands of bees out of strange spaces like a water meter box or a patio chair, then relocating them into transportable frames.
For the TikTok account of R&A Tree Service in Enumclaw, Washington, the winning formula has been “big trees.” The company’s videos show owner Ryland Popke and colleagues slicing into and toppling over trees they’re paid to remove.
“It sounds stupid, but I’ve posted a lot of videos on TikTok where it was a small tree, but I thought it was a badass video and all the timing was right, and it turns out it doesn’t do nearly as good as some of the other ones,” Popke said.
The exposure has been helpful for their businesses. Wang said he’s able to provide design services internationally, expanding his reach far beyond the 30-mile radius his company initially operated in. Popke has seen demand from “all over the country” for hats he sells. Butler’s business operates online, so she’s seen a surge in sales.
Thompson says the viral videos have helped her business too, but she’s more excited about the education she’s been able to offer people. She received an email from a woman saying her niece now wanted to be a beekeeper; another person said their child had been reenacting her video in their playroom, wearing a toy astronaut’s helmet as a makeshift beekeeping veil.
She’s also gotten some criticism from people who fear the videos will encourage amateurs to start scooping up bees on their own. Thompson doesn’t buy it. “I can’t stop watching guys in wind suits,” she said. “But I’m not gonna buy a wind suit and jump off a cliff.”

New York [US], February 24 (ANI): The Chinese government has increased its "groundless prosecutions" with long prison sentences for Uyghurs and other minority communities in recent years in China's Xinjiang province, according to the Human Rights Watch (HRW).
HRW, a non-governmental body that conducts research and advocacy on human rights said that since the Chinese government escalated its repressive "Strike Hard Campaign against Violent Terrorism" in late 2016, the region's formal criminal justice system has convicted and sentenced more than 250,000 people.
"While few verdicts and other official documents are publicly available due to Xinjiang authorities' tight control of information, a Human Rights Watch analysis of nearly 60 of these cases suggests that many people have been convicted and imprisoned without committing a genuine offence," HRW said in a release.
Maya Wang, a senior China researcher said although Beijing's use of "political education" camps has led to international outrage, imprisonment of Xinjiang's Muslims by the formal justice system has attracted far less attention.
"Although the Chinese government's use of 'political education' camps has led to international outrage, the detention and imprisonment of Xinjiang's Muslims by the formal justice system has attracted far less attention," said Maya Wang, as quoted by HRW.
"Despite the veneer of legality, many of those in Xinjiang's prisons are ordinary people who were convicted for going about their lives and practising their religion," the China researcher added.
According to the HRW, the Chinese government's official statistics showed a surge in the number of people sentenced in Xinjiang in 2017, followed by another increase in 2018.
The statistics further reveal that Xinjiang courts sentenced 99,326 people in 2017 and 133,198 in 2018. The authorities have not released sentencing statistics for 2019.
"The Xinjiang Victims Database - a nongovernmental organization that has documented the cases of over 8,000 detainees based on family accounts and official documents - estimates that the number of people sentenced in 2019 may be comparable to those in the previous two years. Of the 178 cases whose year of sentencing is known, the number of people sentenced in 2019 is roughly the average of those of 2017 and 2018," HRW said.
China has been rebuked globally for cracking down on Uyghur Muslims by sending them to mass detention camps, interfering in their religious activities and sending members of the community to undergo some form of forcible re-education or indoctrination.
Beijing, on the other hand, has vehemently denied that it is engaged in human rights abuses against the Uyghurs in Xinjiang while reports from journalists, NGOs and former detainees have surfaced, highlighting the Chinese Communist Party's brutal crackdown on the ethnic community, according to a report.
"International pressure on the Chinese government should be escalated for an independent investigation in Xinjiang," Wang said. "That's the best hope for the release of all those unjustly detained or imprisoned." (ANI)

SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco would become an electoral test tube under a proposed ballot measure to establish a second day of voting in next year’s general election, the Saturday before the traditional Tuesday in November.
Alex Tourk, a local political consultant who is organizing the campaign, said his motivation was to prove that “weekday voting creates barriers.” He cited work, child care issues and fatigue as reasons people stay home from the polls.
“It’s all just about increased access,” Mr. Tourk said.
The idea of weekend voting is not unheard of. Louisiana has long had Saturday voting for a variety of elections, but not for November’s biennial general elections, which are still only on the first Tuesday of that month.
Some states have limited voting on the Saturday before a Tuesday election in centralized locations, like county election offices or other governmental offices, said Paul Gronke, director of the Early Voting Information Center at Reed College.
The San Francisco proposal would essentially replicate the Tuesday voting experience by having all precincts open all day on the preceding Saturday, which Mr. Gronke said was a new idea — and rife with potential pitfalls, including questions about how to secure ballots between Saturday and Tuesday and how to update rolls to prevent voting twice.Continue reading the main story
“Election Day itself is a major administrative headache,” Mr. Gronke said. “And now you’re going to be having two of them.”
But supporters of the San Francisco proposal, which needs 7,178 signatures from registered voters to qualify for November’s ballot, say the experiment could provide evidence that Tuesday is simply a bad day for voting.
“The best way to know if this is effective is to go ahead and do it,” said Representative Steve Israel, a New York Democrat who has twice introduced a bill to move Congressional and presidential elections to weekends. “And if San Francisco can go ahead and do it, it could provide the hard data for the rest of the country.”
The idea of Tuesday voting dates to the mid-19th century when far-flung, and often farmbound, voters needed extra time to travel to and from county seats. But with Americans trailing most of the world in voter participation, Tuesday has become a target for election reformers, including the Web site WhyTuesday.org, which shows elected officials being stumped by the question of why people vote when people vote.
A second day of polling would cost more in a city facing a deficit of more than $500 million, but Mr. Tourk says his pilot plan would be paid for by private contributions, not the taxpayers. If it succeeds here, he said, he would like to expand it to statewide and even national elections.
“San Francisco leads the nation on all kinds of innovative issues,” he said. “Why shouldn’t San Francisco change an antiquated election system for the country?”Continue reading the main story

The city of Seattle has launched a pilot program that will allow people to recycle bottles of water at its recycling centers, and the city’s recyclers say they’re seeing an increase in donations of bottled water.
“We’ve had a lot of people email us saying that the water they’re donating has been in their homes for two weeks,” said Kristin Laughlin, director of recycling at Seattle’s recycling center.
“It is one of the first pilot programs in the country that we’re seeing that we can do this for a very affordable price,” she said. “
Laughlin noted that a lot more water recycling is needed in Seattle, and that it is more than just saving the environment by putting the water in the ground. “
It is one of the first pilot programs in the country that we’re seeing that we can do this for a very affordable price,” she said.
Laughlin noted that a lot more water recycling is needed in Seattle, and that it is more than just saving the environment by putting the water in the ground.
“This will save people money and it’s going to create jobs, too,” she told ABC News.
“If you’re looking for a job right now, the most important thing you can do is recycle your water.”
The program is being implemented in partnership with the Puget Sound Aquarium and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which is a part of the city.
The city is also offering free recycling for households with at least one person under the age of 18, and Laughlin expects to start offering free water collection for seniors at the end of March.
The program will be implemented by January.
The Seattle Center for the Environment, a nonprofit environmental advocacy group, is also partnering with the city to help residents in need with the water collection.
“In order to reach a goal of one million bottles of fresh water, we need to collect at least half of them,” said Laura DeWalt, a senior policy adviser at the Center.
“And so we’re working with the Center to get water collected for free, for low-income families, for people with disabilities and the elderly.”
The Seattle center will be partnering with several other organizations to reach the goal, including the Seattle City Council and the Pugetside Aquarium.
“Water is so important for people, and it is such a finite resource,” said Laughlin.
“The water needs to be collected to make sure it’s safe for the people in the community to drink.
It’s also important for the animals to drink it, and so we want to help these communities in the process.”

I personally HATE THEM. They tend to slide around the edges of your plate, if you buy the cheap ones, they don’t come with rubber bumpers and they scratch the rim of the plates. I can't stand that they SHOW when they are hanging on the wall. UGH.
Plus they run about $4-8 each! If you are doing a ‘gallery wall’ of plates, that can really add up. I gave up on them long ago..
For Halloween this year, I wanted to make a version of a set of plates I saw at Hobby Lobby:
The plates were $12 each! yikes. $50 for 4?! I’ll pass. Instead I bought 4 solid black plates at the dollar store and used my Silhouette to cut out some Halloween motifs out of non-permanant vinyl.
Here is my version:
The framed silhouettes in the ornate frames were directly from the Silhouette store: Bride of Frankenstein, Pumpkin, Witch, Skeleton (you must be logged in for the links to work.)
I use these adhesive wall hangers: I picked these specific ones up at my local hardware store for $3 (there were 5 in the package) and they are available at places like Michael’s as well. But if you can’t find them, you can get a 6 pack (three hooks and three eyelets) on Amazon for $5. The ones I use are rated to hold up to 5 pounds (which would be a REALLY heavy plate.) You can actually buy another version specifically for plates, but they cost more ($12 for four) and are the same thing only in a different shape.
The adhesive wall hangers are actually meant to stick on the wall and hold up a picture frame with a hook, but instead I stick them to the plate and use a nail in the wall. I really like them because they don’t damage the plate AT ALL. Plus the are really secure but if you eventually want to remove them in order to actually use the plate, they are removable.
I have seen a lot of tutorials on Pinterest where you use super glue to attach a paper clip (or other type of hanger) to the back, but that is risky since you are depending on the glue to hold (which doesn’t always work out). Plus you now end up with a paper clip permanently on the back of your plate. (Not something you want to do with grandma’s fine China!)
Using a pliers (or your fingers if you have tough fingers) you need to bend the hook flat so it doesn’t hit the back of your plate:
When you are done, it will look like this:
To attach it to the back of your plate you just need to dampen the adhesive surface (like a stamp) and stick it to the plate. For most plates, they can go anywhere on the back, but since my plates had a directional motif, I needed to make sure they were centered at the top.
My trick for centering the hanger is to use a post it note. Stick it to the backside of the plate making sure it is parallel with the center line:
Then when you flip the plate over you will have the center lined marked for you so you know exactly where you want hanger:
The hole in the sticker should be right along the center line (indicated by the edge of your post-it note.)
Remember, if you want the plate to be FLUSH AGAINST THE WALL YOU NEED THE EYELET TO BE WHERE THE PLATE CURVES UPWARDS.. otherwise the nail will go through the hole and hit the back of you plate, making it wobbly.Once you have the hangers attached to the plates (and allow them to dry for 35 minutes) you need to drive a nail into the wall (I personally like paneling nails since they have a head which prevents the eyelet from sliding off) and you can hang your plates:
You can see from the side that the hanger is virtually invisible. It is like the plates are floating on the wall:
If you are wondering how well the adhesive holds up, I can tell you from experience that they work great. I have had large plates hanging over my sofa for more than three years (and though a half dozen earthquakes) and they are still solid:
Now I thought I'd give you a little sneak preview of my halloween mantel in progress (with my new Halloween silhouette plates):
I am happy with how my plates came out, and the best part is because I used the reusable vinyl (Oracal 631) I can peel it off after Halloween and use them for something else!
But that is just the tip of the Halloween decor iceberg! I actually will be giving a full halloween house tour with a bunch of other fabulous bloggers on Monday Oct. 20th. Be sure you have signed up to get my posts delivered via email, and you won’t miss it.

Obamacare sucks. Everything about it was based on lies, false presentations, and outright manipulative efforts from Democrats.
As a direct result of the worst legislation ever constructed the vast majority of Democrats have been running from it ever since it was signed into law. Democrats know know the toxic nature of the fraud they created. Higher insurance costs, lower healthcare services and financial impacts to the average person that are ridiculously unaffordable.
Obamacare is the primary drag on the economy and businesses, sucking money away from businesses and individuals. Hence Democrats have continually asked for delays in an effort to avoid the political consequences. Here’s another:
(Via Daily Caller) A group of Democratic senators is urging the Obama administration to delay a key portion of Obamacare because the results could be “harmful and disruptive.”
In a letter exclusively obtained by The Daily Caller, Senate Democrats pleaded with Health and Human Services secretary Sylvia Matthews Burwell to delay an Obamacare rule change that puts companies with 51 to 100 employees in the costlier “small group” market instead of the “large group” market. The rule change, which will result in higher premiums for many companies, goes into effect in 2016.
“We are writing to share our concerns regarding scheduled changes to the definition of the small group market under the Affordable Care Act (ACA),” the senators wrote in the letter, dated March 12.
“Under the law, employers with 51 to 100 employees will be included in the ACA’s definition of small group market starting in 2016. Instead of providing stability, we believe expanding the definition will force those historically defined ‘large group plans’ into the ‘small group market,’ where they could experience higher premiums, less flexibility, and new barriers to coverage…” (continue reading)

BlackBerry's shares, revenue, reputation (and, uh, everything) continues to plummet. The company's latest make-or-break attempt, the much-delayed BlackBerry 10, has fallen into the "break" category — and now, the company is reportedly considering selling.
A BlackBerry Ltd. (formerly Research In Motion) director, Timothy D. Dattels, announced Monday that "given the importance and strength of our technology, and the evolving industry and competitive landscape, we believe that now is the right time to explore strategic alternatives."
In tech-speak, this means they have absolutely no idea what to do next.
The company has confirmed that an independent board is reviewing the company, and will advise the (presumably quite grouchy) directors on their next step.
It's hard to believe now, but BlackBerry was once the Apple of the smartphone market. With its groundbreaking BBM messaging service, fast processor, and fresh interface, the company was once worth $50 billion. It was nicknamed "CrackBerry" for its addictive properties, and even President Obama absolutely could not put his down.
The phone still popular in countries like India and Indonesia, but in America, Blackberry has been described as the "black sheep" of the smartphone market. From the New York Times' "Quick! Hide the BlackBerry":
Rachel Crosby speaks about her BlackBerry phone the way someone might speak of an embarrassing relative. “I’m ashamed of it,” said Ms. Crosby, a Los Angeles sales representative who said she had stopped pulling out her BlackBerry at cocktail parties and conferences. In meetings, she says she hides her BlackBerry beneath her iPad for fear clients will see it and judge her.
Poor Crosby isn't alone. One of the first policies Marissa Meyer implemented as CEO of Yahoo was to replace all her employees' BlackBerries with iPhones, and BlackBerry has lost 92 percent of its shares since 2007. It now controls three percent of the market. Windows Phone is doing better than that. Yikes.
The new Blackberry 10 was heralded as the thing that would change the tide for the ailing company, with brand-new, established directors heading up the model. Because it was the model was delayed and had little edge on iPhone or Android, it didn't change much of anything. The term "make-or-break" was thrown around a lot during the run-up to the phone's arrival date, which should logically mean that the company is now, actually, broken.
So who might buy BlackBerry? Well, according to rumors, Microsoft looked over the company and decided to pass. (Awkward.) Apple and Google won't bite because the model is in direct competition with their own. The company could be taken private, which would remove the embarrassment of having to share quarterly profits (or more losses), but that option wouldn't have any immediate upsides.
Another option would be for BlackBerry to license parts of their technology to turn a profit.
And speaking of making money: the iPhone 5S now has a (sort-of official) release date: Sept. 10. Though Apple never, ever confirms or denies release dates, media sources have confirmed that this is the case — and they're usually right. Rumors are swirling that the new model will be named the iPhone 5S, and will be unveiled with or without a brand-new, cheaper set of colored models (the 5C.)

Everex, an Ethereum-based cross-border microcredit services and transactions company, was recognized for “Service Originality” on Thursday, June 15 by the remittance-focused RemTECH Awards at the United Nations headquarters in New York City. RemTECH honors “transparency, speed, cost and reliability for the companies and end-users that send and receive remittances every day.”
CEO Alexi Lane traveled to the U.N. for the RemTech Awards, which were held June 15–16 at the Global Forum on Remittances, Investment and Development 2017 (GFRID). After the awards were announced, Lane said:
“We believe what separates Everex is our ability to create a credit history for underserved people, thanks to the Ethereum public Blockchain, smart contract and decentralized application technology. The judges knew about Ethereum, and were excited by the ongoing experiments taking place on the network by individual users, small businesses and multinational corporations.”
Everex was one of nine Blockchain-related companies nominated. Fifteen companies altogether were nominated, and five Blockchain companies ultimately took home awards. Lane notes that Everex was the only Ethereum-based platform nominated, while other recognized Blockchain-based companies mostly used bitcoin, litecoin or ether for internal transfers.
Though honored by RemTech for its contributions to remittances, Everex has also developed a system for placing national currencies on the Blockchain. By doing so, Everex allows people living in cash-based societies to earn a public financial reputation. Everex can then determine micro-loan rates for the historically underserved from the Blockchain-based risk assessments.
Alongside Everex, bitcoin-based companies Bitso, Bitex, Cashaa, Digital X, Moneytis, OKlink and Trulioo were announced as contenders for the awards on Wednesday, June 14 in San Francisco.
After the nomination, Lane explained Everex technology.
“We use our technology to put national currencies on the Blockchain, where financial records create public credit history for the underserved,” Lane stated. “Like credit card transactions, Blockchain records show how much is spent, so we can apply AI and machine learning to analyze the data and come up with the loan rate to offer the user.”
Other Blockchain-based winners at the show included Airpocket by DigitalX, Bitso, Moneytis and Trulioo. Airpocket won for “Remittances and Financial Inclusion”; Bitso won for “Pioneering Spirit”; Moneytis won “Most Innovative Service”, and Trulioo won “Potential for Growth.”
Payment companies nominated included TransferTo, Azimo, Moneytis, RemitONE, Comply, Advantage, Safaricom, Xoom and EcoCash, Diaspora, STPMEX and WireCash.
Everex’s originality lies in being the only Ethereum-based company solving problems in the remittance and micro-finance industries.
“We were very proud to represent Ethereum technology at RemTECH,” said Lane. “This technology will transform the remittance industry and increase financial inclusion everywhere.”
Everex is a financial inclusion Blockchain development company seeking to improve access to financial services and markets for the 2.5 billion un-and under-banked population across the world. Our solution offers national currencies in Blockchain form, using Ethereum smart contract technology that can be applied to cross-border lending, remittances, merchant payments, and currency exchange.

Julian Casablancas on the future of The Strokes
A sixth record by The Strokes always felt like a given to me, things were very quiet in 2013 when Comedown Machine was released but last summer they played some shows and they are doing some more festivals this year. Something is definitely happening in the land of The Strokes and so it is really great getting confirmation from main man Julian Casablancas himself in a recent interview with Noisey. Now I wouldn’t expect anything new to emerge anytime soon but at least its on the cards.
“The Strokes have already announced a small clutch of high profile festival appearances this coming summer, and Casablancas has joined Hammond Jr, Moretti, Fraiture, and Valensi in Manhattan for the next week or so. â€œItâ€™s the first time weâ€™ve been exclusively writing since Comedown Machine,â€ he says. â€œWeâ€™re planning on recording stuff. I still think we could do cool things and Iâ€™ll do that. Iâ€™d like to do both [bands] really if I could.â€
The entire article is excellent and well worth the read.
There is also a recent interview with Elision fanzine which is another great read and has some lovely artwork.

Back when energy was cheap,
we lit smudgepots—ten cents/gallon
to keep from freezing an orange crop.
hour-weeks bent to wooden handles
shoveling, hoeing weeks, or harnessing
a Cornbinder’s horsepower
when damn-near any Mom and Pop
could make a dollar from the earth
farming—a young man horseback
could ride all-day for almost free
and old cowboys worked for nothing.
We had lots of energy in the old days,
lots of hands we can’t afford
to hire anymore, water going deeper
and pump bills higher, we suck
the planet dry for expensive things
we never used to need
when energy was cheap.
With the sun on my face
and wind at my back,
I thought I would last forever
like the Eveready Bunny—
back when energy was cheap.
What a statement…
Really enjoyed this poem. Thanks for sharing it, John.
Thanks Paul, trust you’re well.

With pinpoint accuracy, the Grinlok lever-action repeating rifle can easily find the soft spot on any target.
Grinlok is a lever-action rifle that serves as the Grineer equivalent to the Sybaris. It trades out magazine size and rate of fire for higher overall damage, so players must make every shot count.
This weapon deals primarily
Little to no vertical recoil.
Very small spread.
Fairly high damage.
Slash Very high status chance.
Low Zoom makes it easier to use at close range.
Very good ammo efficiency as it draws from the rifle ammo pool.
Can equip the Grinlok-exclusive Deadly Sequence mod.
Small magazine size.
Puncture Low Zoom makes it ill-suited for long range.
Compared to the Sybaris:
Higher status chance.
Slower rate of fire
Lower Critical Chance.
Smaller magazine size.
Weapon Loadouts 编辑
See the user build section for builds using this weapon.
While it is similar to the Latron, it comes with a lower magazine capacity and slower rate of fire, making it more punishing for missed shots. Focus on aiming at heads or weak spots.
With Malignant Force, High Voltage, Thermite Rounds, Rime Rounds, Hammer Shot and Rifle Aptitude equipped, the Grinlok can achieve a status chance of 100%, making every single shot deal status effect procs. While the actual combined status chance is about 138.25%, the UI does not show status chance values above 100%, as any value above that has no effect on the proc chance.
With Split Chamber, the second shot created will always deal the same proc as the original shot, essentially dealing the same Status Effect twice on the target.
Shred is a recommended mod if the user prefers crowd control, increasing its slow rate of fire while piercing large groups with ease.
Oftentimes the Grinlok flings the enemy around on a lethal shot, a side effect of it dealing mainly damage.
Impact The Grinlok's focus is both on and Impact damage, making it generally effective at dealing against the Slash Corpus and the Infested.
The Grinlok appears to have a "dud round" in every other magazine - while almost all shots are accurate, there appear to be at least several instances where a bullet will land quite far from the crosshair.
This is unconfirmed but may potentially explain inconsistent accuracy results among players.
Despite the trigger type being listed as semi-auto, the Grinlok is described as being a lever-action repeating rifle.
The News tab in the UI mistakenly referred to this gun as Grinlo ck.
The weapon's name may be a combination/corruption of "Grineer" and " Flintlock", the latter of which was an early firing mechanism in guns used in the in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries.
Despite the unusual combination of technologies mentioned, a lever-action flintlock rifle did exist in real life.

Dec 31, 2015 Newsdesk Latest News, Top of the deck, World
Casino gaming revenue on the Las Vegas Strip stood at US$535.6 million in November, up by 5.4 percent year-on-year, show data disclosed on Wednesday by the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
The Las Vegas Strip, in Clark County in the state of Nevada, is the main gaming hub in the United States.
For the first 11 months of 2015, gaming revenue – officially classified as ‘gaming win’ – for the Las Vegas Strip was down 2.8 percent to US$6.3 billion, the data indicate.
Despite the ongoing slump in Macau’s gaming revenue, that city still retained a comfortable lead in November over the Las Vegas Strip regarding bragging rights to the title of world’s number one casino destination by revenue.
Macau’s casino gross gaming revenue (GGR) for November fell by 32.3 percent year-on-year to approximately MOP16.43 billion (US$2.06 billion), according to official data. Despite that decline, Macau’s gaming market was almost four times the size in GGR terms than that of the Las Vegas Strip market.
“Headline revenues [in the Las Vegas Strip] were in line with our expectations of low- to mid-single [digit] growth, impacted by: difficult baccarat comparison from last year…; tough operating calendar, with one less Saturday versus the same period last year; offset by timing of collections benefiting slot win and strong event calendar this year,” commented analyst Cameron McKnight, from Wells Fargo Securities LLC.
He added: “Mass-market volumes, which is the best indicator of overall gaming revenue trends, were flat, slightly below the year to date average of up 1 percent”.
The growth in gaming revenue in the Las Vegas Strip was driven by higher domestic visitor volume, Union Gaming Research LLC said in a note. “The trend of improving domestic trends in Las Vegas is encouraging, however, sometimes overlooked, as the international baccarat business continues to remain volatile,” wrote analysts Christopher Jones and John DeCree.
November baccarat volumes in the Las Vegas Strip were down 28.3 percent year on year while revenues were down 14.1 percent.
Overall November gaming win in the state of Nevada was US$944 million, up 7.7 percent compared with November 2014.

A copy of the settlement obtained by WATD doesn’t specially name Mark DeLuca, because all names have been redacted, but it does state that the agreement “does not constitute an admission of wrongdoing”.
The Cohasset Police Chief was placed on administrative leave in May and since, the town has confronted allegations against DeLuca which include abusing his position to secure benefits that weren’t entitled to him, physically abusing others, and forging documents.
Cohasset’s Acting Town Manager Mike Milanoski recently said DeLuca’s contract will not be renewed and his last day as a town employee will be January 24th. DeLuca will continue to receive pay and benefits outlined in his contract with the Town of Cohasset until his contract expires next month.
In the settlement, there is a paragraph titled “Waiver of Appeal Rights” which explains that the town won’t face litigation regarding the employment contract and the decision to not renew won’t be challenged.
DeLuca was formerly the police chief in Duxbury. In 2009, Duxbury decided not to renew DeLuca’s contract and earlier this year, Deluca filed a lawsuit against the Town of Duxbury in federal court.
Deputy Chief Bill Quigley has been managing operations within the Cohasset Police Department for the last six months as the Acting Police Chief and will continue to do so until the town makes a permanent decision.
Milanoski told Cohasset Selectmen Tuesday night that he doesn’t plan on making a recommendation about the position until the 2013 fiscal year ends. The next fiscal year begins July 1st, 2013.
