Singapore-based vogue start-up Zilingo has fired its Indian-origin co-founder & Chief Government Officer (CEO) Ankiti Bose following a probe into complaints of economic irregularities, information company PTI reported as we speak.
The board of the seven-year-old start-up had suspended Ms Bose in March and roped in an impartial agency to analyze the matter. The agency had additionally appointed a monetary adviser after it missed cost obligations. The corporate is going through a deep accounting practices disaster, which rocked Singapore’s expertise trade.
“Following an investigation led by an impartial forensics agency that was commissioned to look into complaints of significant monetary irregularities, the corporate has determined to terminate Ankiti Bose’s employment with trigger, and reserves the precise to pursue acceptable authorized motion,” Zilingo stated in a press release.
The agency didn’t elaborate on the allegations towards Ms Bose or the findings of the audit.
Ms Bose stated in a separate assertion to Bloomberg Information that her employment was terminated on the grounds of “insubordination”.
Following her suspension, Ms Bose had alleged harassment. The agency stated as we speak that the probe had discovered that acceptable motion was taken.
“On April eleventh, after her suspension on March 31, Ankiti Bose dropped at the board’s consideration, for the primary time, sure harassment-related points pertaining to previous time durations, which didn’t embody any harassment complaints towards traders or their nominees,” it stated.
“The investigation has concluded that the corporate took acceptable motion and adopted due course of to deal with these complaints that had been dropped at their discover, opposite to media stories which have recommended that the suspension and investigation into Ankiti Bose had been geared toward suppressing the stated harassment claims,” the assertion stated.
The net start-up that provides expertise to attire retailers and factories was based in 2015 by Ms Bose and chief expertise officer Dhruv Kapoor. It has Singaporean state holding firm Temasek and Sequoia Capital amongst its traders.
The corporate had earlier stated that its shareholders and board members had acquired details about discrepancies that wanted investigation and thereafter, main traders had been authorised to droop Ms Bose.
Ms Bose denied the allegations and contended that her suspension was due partly to her complaints of harassment.
“The corporate is deeply pained and dissatisfied to see the style by which the board, traders and workers have been continuously attacked by ostensibly leaked and faux data, together with what sadly seems to be paid and defamatory social media campaigns all through the investigation interval. This has triggered irreparable harm to the Firm, the board, workers and traders,” Zilingo stated.
Zilingo was began as a Southeast Asia-focused e-commerce agency. Over time, it turned a world provide chain for the attire trade, financing, and different companies.
The corporate – which has about 600 workers in eight international locations – raised USD 226 million in its final fundraising spherical in early 2019. The fundraising had valued the corporate at about USD 1 billion.
As per publicly out there data on Singapore’s accounting regulator’s web site, the corporate has not filed annual returns for 2020 and 2021 thus far.
Earlier, Zilingo co-founder Dhruv Kapoor advised workers in an electronic mail that the agency has no tolerance for any type of harassment and that the actions of some folks had been hurting its repute.
He stated it was troubling to see some folks act towards the curiosity of the corporate and unhappy to listen to allegations that harassment complaints had been suppressed.
The e-mail got here after Zilingo publicly stated that Ms Bose made harassment-related allegations solely after she was suspended in March and no previous and current investor nominees on the board had been made conscious of the harassment claims previous to that.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged citizens to switch off the lights in their homes and light candles and oil lamps instead on Sunday night to dispel the “darkness” of the coronavirus epidemic and look forward with hope.
In a video message, he thanked the country’s 1.3 billion people for contributing to the success of a nationwide coronavirus lockdown.
He said: “On the 5th of April at 9pm, turn off all the lights in your homes, stand at your doors or in your balconies, and light candles or diyas (oil lamps), torches or use your mobile flashlights for nine minutes.
“We will experience the superpower of light, clearly illuminating the common purpose we are all fighting for. In that light, in that lustre, in that radiance, let us resolve in our minds that we are not alone, that no one is alone.”
Mr Modi also appealed for people to stay at home and continue to adhere to the social distancing restrictions currently in place.
An earlier appeal to applaud those on the frontline of the COVID-19 battle was widely criticised after scores of people came out on the streets and celebrated the event.
In a video news conference, Pawan Khera, a spokesman of the opposition Congress party, responded to Mr Modi’s fresh appeal: “The country was expecting answers from the prime minister on the issues of shortage of personal protection equipment and on helping the poor and migrant labourers who were without food and money.”
In a direct message to the PM, he added: “The country was dejected today, people did not get any information they were expecting from you on critical questions.”
There have been more than 3,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus across the country, as well as 86 deaths.
The cases have been largely driven by a congregation of members of the Tablighi Jammat, a Muslim missionary group in Delhi.
In violation of the government restrictions this 2,500-strong group which included about 1,000 foreign nationals from Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, the US and Kyrgyzstan among others had gathered at a complex located in a crowded area of Nizammudin in the city.
At least 647 among these so-called “superspreaders” have tested positive in 14 states.
Officials are still trying to find more people associated with the event.
The group’s leader, Maulana Saad Kandhalvi, and six others involved are believed to be in hiding and the government has launched a manhunt.
Their base has been sealed off and health workers have been disinfecting the dozens of rooms and quarters of the building.
It comes as officials recorded the first coronavirus-related death in India’s largest slum, Dharavi, in the financial capital of Mumbai.
The 56-year-old’s death has been linked to the Delhi group. Ten of its members had stayed at a house belonging to the victim.
A 35-year-old doctor who treated the man has also tested positive for COVID-19.
Dharavi, a slum with almost a million people living and working in a 2.2 square kilometre area, is one of the most densely populated parts of India. A spread of the virus there would put medical facilities under a massive strain.
India is midway through its 21-day nationwide lockdown. Only key workers are allowed to leave their homes. The rest of the population can only venture out to buy food and medicines.
The government failed to factor the very large migrant population comprising daily wage earners and contract workers. This informal sector forms almost 81% of India’s working population.
After Mr Modi announced the measure, tens of thousands of migrant workers crammed into buses or walked for days to get back to their native villages.
The government was severely criticised for an ill-judged policy towards migrant labour.
In a radio address Mr Modi apologised for the trouble caused, but said the lockdown was necessary to stop the spread of the virus and save lives.

>>>Add here a title for your case
|Name||Plitvice Lakes National Park|
|Country||Republic of Croatia|
|World Heritage||UNESCO World Heritage Site, 1979|
Why is this case relevant?
- Plitvice lakes national park is located in the Republic of Croatia and it is the Croatian oldest and largest national park, having that status since 1949. It is located in a mountainous karst region with a surface of just under 300 square kilometers in size. Primarily covered in forest vegetation with some smaller grassland areas and 16 larger and several smaller cascading lakes connected by waterfalls, which are its key feature. The unique characteristic of Plitvice lakes is the biodynamic process of sedimentary tufa rocks formation and consequentially tufa (travertine) barriers which resulted in the creation of the characteristic lakes and waterfalls. This would be the outstanding value of the location which led to its international recognition and its declaration as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. On top of its geological uniqueness, Plitvice lakes is abundantly rich in flora and fauna, out of which a lot are endemic and some have been placed on the red list of protected species, with approximately 1400 plant species present and a large number of animals, including some larger predator species.
Which idea of ‘design with nature’ guides the design concept of this site?
- The largest part of the Plitvice lakes national park comes under strict conservation as entirely untouched or insignificantly touched natural areas rich in biodiversity and natural beauty, as such there is little to no requirements for maintenance or any actions in such areas. Entirely opposite to that the smaller areas concentrated in the vicinity of the larger lakes in Plitvice is a major touristic attraction containing recreational and touristic infrastructure as well as some settlements of cultural importance portraying the traditional way of life as part of the national park’s cultural heritage. These areas require high and active maintenance efforts in order to preserve them as they are and to limit the human influence from high touristic pressure to the relatively small location which needs to remain unaltered as much as it is possible. This constant conflict is what needs to be regularly dealt with as the lack of maintenance or proper planning efforts would have devastating consequences on this landscape.
Which challenges is this landscape facing?
- Plitvice lakes National Park faces a lot of problems which have started to be publicly revealed over the past years and which may cause it to be categorized as an endangered UNESCO world heritage site, or, if there isn´t going to be a significant improvement, even removed from the list. One of the problems is the overcrowding in the Park caused by its increased popularity and mass tourism. Recently there has been over one and a half million tourists per year and sometimes even more then 15 000 visitors daily during the peak touristic season. Such a high touristic pressure has already caused some devastation as the visitors act with neglect to the ecosystems, not following the designated path for movement and entering closed areas, damaging the flora, leaving trash or feeding fish and other animals, which is forbidden. Secondly there has been a rapid increase in apartmanization as the number of built apartments for rental in the Park has almost doubled over the past 10 years and a large number of new building permits have been granted, even for building in the protected areas of the Park, also there has been news of a possibility of new hotels being built in the future. The most pressing matter in Plitvice Lakes would be the pollution in the Park, which has already been detected in the waters, caused by non-existence of a sufficient sewer system and wastewater purification as the wastewater from the apartments and some residential houses is being released directly into the environment, which causes not only the pollution of waters but it also directly effects the process of tufa barrier formation by killing the microorganism which are essential for its creation. Another serious risk for pollution is from the traffic, especially the transportation of oil and fuel, on the major state road that passed through Plitvice Lakes water catchment area. Finally, as there is no alternative clean water source, the potable water for the settlements in the Park is currently being drained from the largest Kozjak lake and some water streams which, unless dealt with, will lead to their drainage and the drainage of the waterfalls in the Park.
What would be your strategy for improvement?
- In order to trigger a positive change in this environment various steps and measures need to be undertaken, of which some are quite urgent. The number of visitors in the Park has to be restricted to the amount that would be more easily controlled and monitored in order to ensure that they do not damage the sensitive ecosystems of the park, also their movement should be more strictly directed away from these sensitive areas. The uncontrolled apartmanization needs to be stopped and the building of the new touristic capacities should be concentrated in the settlements outside of the Park boundaries, while providing a good transport connection to the Park. Furthermore, one of the most urgent measures would be to provide sufficient infrastructure for the already built settlements, both in ways of a new sewage system and water purification stations, as well as an outer source of clean potable water. Lastly, it is important to redirect the traffic from the district road in the Park by building a new road away from the Parks water catchment area to avoid any possible pollution from transportation.

A STUDY OF PRECISION IN TURNING EXTERNAL
CYLINDRICAL SURFACES WITH MOVABLE TWO-BLADE

ARTICLE INFO Abstract: Article history:
Received in revised form: 8.4.2018. Accepted: 10.4.2018.
In practice, movable blocks with oppositely ar-ranged cutting inserts are used for turning internal and external cylindrical surfaces with great length. With these instruments, the dimension of dynamic adjustment is formed as a result of the continuous striving to the dynamic equilibrium of the radial components of both operation cutting forces which is restricted in the systems of the tool and the work piece. In this processing scheme, it is particularly important that the opposite cutting edges lie in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the work piece, which is difficult for implementation in certain circumstances. In addition, under certain circumstances, the variation of the machining al-lowance has an impact on the size of the dynamic adjustment. It leads to reduction of the diameter of the treated surface towards the dimension of the static adjustment of the block.
This article proposes an innovative solution for us-ing tools with opposite cuttus-ing inserts, which are axially displaced with guaranteed value to in-crease the accuracy of the obtained size. The ques-tion of adjusting the elasticity of the cutting block to compensate for the effect of the variable allow-ance on the accuracy of the treatment is investi-gated. As the result of researching, the dependen-cies to quantify from this impact and the condi-tions for its reduction are received, which can be used in practical conditions for increasing accu-racy of the static adjustment.

Processing of cylindrical surfaces with high quality requirements continues to be one of the ongoing problems of the modern engineering. In the present state, there is multiple research in the area of the pre-cision treatment of these surfaces [1-3]. They will

have positive effect when they are used in specific circumstances. For the details with great length of their surfaces, these are particularly important meth-ods and tools to increase the productivity of their pro-duction. This has a markedly positive effect. Once they areused in practice decisions, mainly for inter-nal cylindrical surfaces, they are being processed
through a combined tool with skiving and burnishing (by surface plastic deformation) parts [4-6]. This vastly decrease the time for treatment. The main man-ufacturer of such tools is ECOROLL AG, Germany. Their team has many registered patents where the find information could be found on specific design solutions under different handling conditions of ex-ternal and inex-ternal cylindrical surfaces.
 suggests such kind of a tool with one insert. The main disadvantage of this decision is the missing pos-sibilities to be equilibrated by the radial cutting forces. When skiving part is as self-established mov-able two-blade block (MTBB) with oppositely dis-posed cutting inserts this problem is solved [8-9], and greater stability of the tool is achieved. This technical solution provides achieving a high precision of the diametrical size over the entire length of the surface. This approach has limited use for external cylindrical surfaces and one of the reasons for that is its insuffi-cient research.
When working with the MTBB with opposite loca-tion of the cutting inserts, the size of dynamic adjust-ment is formed as a result of the continuous striving to the dynamic equilibrium radial components of both inserts in the systems of the tool and the work piece. To ensure precision of treatment certain cir-cumstances are needed to be provided, most im-portant of which are: the same name opposite points of the main cutting edges must lie in planes perpen-dicular to the axis of rotation; the MTBB stability in the radial direction must be maximum etc. r. In prac-tice, the first prerequisite is difficult to be realized, and one of the main cutting edges of the two cutting inserts is frequently included earlier in the cutting process, ahead of the other with the dimension of their displacement in the axial direction. This leads to a reduction of the diameter of the treated surface to-wards the dimension of the static adjustment of the block [10-11] and compromises the accuracy of the size obtained.
In  a research has been performed of the influence of axial displacement of the inserts on combined pro-cessing by the movable block. In [13-14] the impact of the elasticity of the instrument system was exam-ined on the accuracy of the obtaexam-ined size.
On the basis of these studies, the research was done between the relationship of the axial displacement of the cutting inserts and the accuracy achieved in ad-justing the elasticity of the cutting block. This was done in the presence of a variable processing allow-ance with the aim to receive practical dependencies for static adjustment of the tools.
The movable two-blade block is adjusted to the size in advance and the dimension of the static adjustment is not corrected during the working cycle. Therefore, in the batch processing of the parts, the relationship between the tolerance of the work piece diameter and that of the treated surface depends on the stability of the technological system. In this case it only includes the work piece and the MTBB.
The object of the researching is the assessment of the impact of the displacement of the opposite inserts in the axial direction on the above mention relation, i.e. over the accuracy of the cutting stroke. To relieve the research. next preconditions can be introduced: in the absence of axial displacement of the cut-ting inserts the plane containing their tops is perpen-dicular to the axis of rotation, and the axes of sym-metry of the block and the work piece coincide with the last;
tool minor cutting edge angles r, are zero de-grees and tool cutting edge angles r are equal; the deviations of the surface form of the work piece is insignificant;
the friction in the guides of the block is over-looked;
primary rotational motion is carried out by the work piece, the feed motion - by the tool with a speed
the bodies of the MTBB and the work piece are non-deformable.
The displacement (X) of the inserts leads to a reduc-tion of the diameter of the treated surface toward the dimension of the static adjustment which is a result of radial displacement of the MTBB to the outstrip-ping insert and is characterized by a limit value (Хl),
after which the radial displacement receives constant maximum value . The reason for this is the self-establishment of the MTBB for satisfaction of the dy-namic equilibrium. When reducing the tool cutting edge angle rin the range of 90 0 the value of the limit axial displacement increases starting respec-tively from f / 2. In case of axial displacement less than the limit X<Xl there is a mutual influence of the cutting inserts, which is leaded to difference in the shape and dimensions of the sheared from them lay-ers.
Figure 1 schematically shows the processing of a shaft having axially displaced cutting inserts, of which the bottom one is outstripped and its area of
shear layer is hatched and denoted by А1l,
respec-tively, of the lagged - А2l. From condition of the
ra-dial cutting forces equilibrium the two areas are equal to each other (А1l=А2l), and as a result of their axial
displacement Хl also equality of their technological
dimensions exists – cutting depth ар1=ар2 and feed f.
The magnitude of the limit axial displacement is de-termined by dependence (1). w a l r 2 3 d L f X tg (1)
where dw is diameter of the work piece; La – dimen-sion of the static adjustment of the MTBB, which is generally the distance between the trajectories of the
tips of the cutting inserts in direction of the feed movement (increasing axial displacement over the value obtained in (1) does not change the shape and dimensions of hatched sections).
The other designations in Figure 1 have the follow-ing meanfollow-ing:
А10 и А20 – areas of the sheared layers respectively

The radial displacement of the MTBB is towards the first insert. In this case it gets maximum value, de-termined by the dependence (5):
Under these conditions and work of the MTBB it is necessary to establish the fluctuation of the allow-ance for processing affects on the diameter of the treated surface. For this purpose, the pattern of cut-ting (in Figure 1) is viewed in cross-section and is shown in Figure 2. There 1 denotes the outstripping
insert (blade), and 2 - lagging and the following ad-ditional designations are introduced: ΔZ - unilateral increasing of the allowance; d dwl , wu- upper and lower limit sizes of the work piece; d dll, lu- upper and lower limit sizes of the treated surface; ap1,ap 2-
cut-ting depth at the lower limit sizes of the work piece; , ,
a a - cutting depth at the upper limit sizes of the work piece.
In Figure 2, as a starting case processing of the work piece with size dwl is accepted. Since in both cases the size of the static adjustment is the same and it must meet condition (3), when processing work piece with size dwu dwl 2 Z the MTBB is self-established. The additional radial displacement Δ in the direction of the blade 1is performed. For the determination of Δ it is convenient to use the next laying (6):
p1 p2 p , , , p p1 p2 , , a a a a a a (6)
whereby, under Fig. 2a, in a force is the equality (7):
p p 2
a Z a (7)
and after conversion (8): . 3
From a technological point:
w w w 2 2 u l d d Тd Z (9)
where Тdwis the tolerance of the diameter of the work piece. After substituting of (9) in (8): w 6 Тd (10)
The tolerance of the diameter of the treated surface is (11):
l lu ll,
Td d d (11)
where dll dlu 2 .
After substituting of (10) and of (11): w
Correlation (12) indicates that with the maximum sta-bility of the MTBB and axial displacement of the cut-ting inserts, equal to or greater than the boundary, the field of dissipation of the tolerance of the processing work pieces of a batch can be reduced theoretically 3 times.
If the premise of resistance to mechanical defor-mation of the body of the MTBB is dropped down to minimum, respectively maximum, allowance will cause small l or large u deformations of the body of the block, which will increase the size of the static adjustment La. Moreover, according to formula (4), the limit size of the treated surface is (13, 14):
w l 4 , 3 l u L d d (13)
w l 4 , 3 u l L d d (14)
and then replacing (13) and (14) into (11) and the conversion is obtained:
w l 4 u l 3 3 Тd Td (15)
It is obviously the existence of the theoretical possi-bilityTdl 0that if the increase of elastic defor-mation when passing from minimum to maximum al-lowance satisfies the condition (16):
u l 4 2
This case is illustrated graphically in Figure 2b, which is analogous to Figure 2a designations and the output dimension of the work piece. In case of build-ing a mutual location of the cuttbuild-ing inserts (blades) 1 and 2 and the work piece as a result of the increase in allowance of ΔZ, it is taken into account that provoked from this increase of the radial displace-ment Δ of the MTBB (Figure 2a) is offset by accom-panying elastic deformation which is satisfying the condition (16). Withal, the second (size forming)
a blade keeps radial position relative to the axis of the treated surface, i.e. its diameter dl is not changed.
Moreover, the size of dynamic adjustment Ld is formed between the blades and the conditions (6) in order for equal cutting depth to be satisfied.
Figure 2. Impact of allowances fluctuations on the diameter of the treated surface: a) with a non-deformable block b) with a deformable block.
From the analysis of the figure, the equality can be compiled (17):
р1 p2 ,
а Z a (17)
where, after conversion, dependence (16) is obtained. It follows from this that the relevant inequalities are in force (18): w 0 4 Td (18) w l 0 3 Тd Td (19)
Based on the above circumstances, it can be con-cluded that the size of static adjustment for the MTBB with maximum stability (adopted as a non-deformable) and with regulated stability (adopted as deformable) according to dependencies (15) and (16) will be different. In both cases it must provide a dia-metric size near the lower limit of the tolerance field, whereat with a non-deformable block, according to (4): l w a 3 , 4 l u d d L (20)
and with a deformable block, according to (14):
l u w a 3 4 , 4 l u d d L (21)
In case of a known elastic characteristic of the MTBB their deformations can be determined by dependen-cies (22): min P l P . F F
and max P u P . , F F (22)
Based on (15), figure 3 shows a graphic interpreta-tion in which the tolerance of the diameter after turn-ing Tdland the elastic deformation, characterizes the stability of the MTBB and is expressed by toler-ance of the diameter of the work piece Tdw. This allows for both qualitative and quantitative as-sessment of dependence (15), which is an equation of a straight line. In the case of Figure 3 it is built under the variation in range from 0 toTdw 2, at which
Td receives the constant value Tdw 3. In fig. 3 the
straight line is depicted only for the positive values because the toleranceTdl cannot be negative.
In Figure 3 it can be seen, that for non-deformable block the MTBB (ε=0) with the axial displacement of the cutting inserts (X Xl) the maximum theoreti-cal possibility to reduce the field of dispersion of the diameter of the work piece is expressed by the de-pendence Tdl =Tdw/3. With reduction in stability of the MTBB the difference Δε between elastic defor-mations caused by fluctuations in the diameter of the work piece within the field of distraction Tdw in-creases, whereupon the above-mentioned oppor-tunity it grows . If the elastic characteristics of the body of the MTBBis set constructively so that turning of the work piece with upper dwu and lowerdwl limit sizes to cause differences in elastic its deformations
Δε with dimension Tdw 4, then the received diam-eters will be the same, i.e. the field dissipation of these dimensions will be Tdl =0. Achieving the elastic characteristics of the body of the MTBB below the satisfying above condition, it leads to increased mar-gins dispersion of diameter after turning. In case of the elastic characteristics providing Δε=Tdw 2 the capabilities of deformable MTBB is aligned to that of the non-deformable block, i.e. Тdl Тdw 3. Obviously, when turning with the cutting inserts, ax-ially displacing at a distance of X Xl the presence of the elastic deformations of the MTBB leads to the increasing of its precision capabilities. Moreover. the dependency is not synonymous - with reducing of the stability of the MTBB these opportunities reach its maximum in whichTdl 0, then begin to decline. The limit values for chosen range of amending stabil-ity in Figure 3 correspond to the one and the same values of Tdl, respectively for the non-deformable and deformable MTBB – expanding this range is pointless by technological considerations.
Of course, that actual results could differ from theo-retical predictions, the cause of which can be uncer-tainty in measurement [15-16] and dependencies for the cutting forces mainly by inhomogeneity of the material of the work piece and wear of the cutting in-serts This would result in a change of a difference
between cutting forces at the minimum and maximum allowances. Then, in a given elastic char-acteristic of the MTBB (23): p F tg (23)
where 𝛼 is the angle of inclination of the elastic char-acteristic 𝐹 = 𝑓 𝜀 (the change will require a value of FP, other than under condition (15)).
The impact of the scattering of according to Fig-ure 3 on the precision opportunities of the MTBB can be seen from Table 1.
It should be noted that the tendency for change of the
is pronounced because theoretical value is deter-mined only by Tdw. Its dependence on FPdue to
the above mentioned reasons is less likely to be real-ized as they have equal influence on both the mini-mum and maximini-mum cutting forces, wherein the dif-ference between them changing is relatively little. The resulting dependencies and conclusions have been applied in practice and their working ability has been demonstrated by designing a tool with adjusta-ble features of the movaadjusta-ble two-blade block in  and .

As a result of the study the following conclusions can be drawn:
1. It's proved that processing the outer surface by the MTBB with guarantee axial displacement of the cut-ting inserts can lead to increasing accuracy of the turning.
2. It's proved that processing the outer surface by the MTBB with the axial displacement of the cutting in-serts (blades) equal to or greater than the limit, results in a reduction of their loading. This is because, ac-cording to the relation (3) higher efficiency of turning is achieved, which is expressed in the withdrawal of greater allowance at smaller cutting depths.
3. The newest information found in this paper is that at the MTBB with the mentioned axial displacement
of the inserts, in contrast to the known comprehen-sion, enhancing the block body stability leads to a re-duction of its precision features. Then upon reaching the non-deformability, decreases to thrice the field of dispersion of the treated surface relative to the work piece (12) and with decreasing of the stability these options are increased (15).
4. It has been shown that there are certain values of the elastic deformation of the MTBB with axial dis-placement inserts, equal to or greater than the limit (16), at which the increase of diameter of the work piece does not lead to a change of the diameter of the treated surface.
5. As a result of the conducted study incurred find-ings make it possible to significantly improve the ac-curacy of turning external surfaces using the MTBB with axially displaced inserts. On the base of these results, a new construction is designed and tested in practical conditions of a tool, which has elastic char-acteristics satisfying the condition (15) and reach maximum accuracy.

Carl Weingarten — Panamorphia
(Multiphase Records MP-CD117, 2012, CD)
by Peter Thelen, Published 2013-04-01Weingarten's last solo release Escapesilence, was a good ten years ago, but many of the fundamental building blocks created on that release and its predecessors Blue Faith and The Acoustic Shadow are all in strong evidence here on Panamorphia, yet this one seems to be more evolutionary, moving those ideas out into new uncharted territory. Captivating inventive textures set up with acoustic, electric and slide guitar, tape loops and delays produce the strong cinematic moods that pervade each of the seven tracks herein. This one is perhaps less of a concept album than some of those predecessors, but at its essence is every bit as powerful – strong on atmospherics, melody, and rhythm. On board for this adventure are bassist Michael Manring, and drummer / percussionist Celso Alberti, who provide the bottom end on three of the cuts here, staying right in line with Weingarten's vision; trumpeter Jeff Oster joins on a couple of the pieces as well. One can easily disengage and get lost in the subtle structures and drifts of some of the extended cuts, four of which handily break the ten-minute mark. One can never predict what direction Weingarten's next escapade will go, and Panamorphia, while truly exceptional, is no exception to that rule. We just had to wait a little longer this time.

Find a beautiful piece of art. If you fall in love with Van Gogh or Matisse or John Oliver Killens, or if you fall love with the music of Coltrane, the music of Aretha Franklin, or the music of Chopin - find some beautiful art and admire it, and realize that that was created by human beings just like you, no more human, no less.
If you’re under 30 and in a relationship right now, and you’re not head over heels, get out. You are way too young to be wasting your time with someone who doesn’t make you really happy to be with them every day. There’s nothing sadder than watching 23-year-olds settle.

Dream Drop Distance Defeating the 3 bosses at once!
Dream Drop Distance Defeating the 3 bosses at once! In Dream Drop Distance the player would have to face and defeat 3 bosses Hockomonkey, Wargoyle and Clawbster at once in order to continue the chase of a dream eater. I would recommend to at least be level 30 and make sure to have Curaga command equipped along with Hi-Potions. There are no checkpoints, if you’re defeated you’ll have to start all over. Hockomonkey and Clawbster is fairly easy to defeat but Wargoyle is the most difficult. It took several defeats in order to come up with a game plan but nothing too difficult to rage about. What I did as a strategy was just pay attention to the attacks from the bosses to get an idea of the play style such as amount of damage taken and timing.
For Hockomonkey-First thing you’ll notice is the street lights and barrels. Do not use the barrels save these for Wargoyle. With Hockomonkey take advantage with the street lights and the walls to use the Flow-motion mechanics against him. Just keep spamming the spinning attack as it causes massive damage. As well remember you still have 2 more bosses to beat so save those potions too.
Once you have defeated Hockomonkey, now it’s the hard part. Wargoyle is just as deadly as he was earlier in the game. However this time the player is closed in a tight area which makes it even more difficult. With Wargoyle, you as the player would need to dish out everything you have. I had Sora equipped with mainly magic range commands. Use the same flow-motion techniques used against Hockomonkey as well the barrels around the area. The barrels will have Wargoyle laid out and stunned to which gives the player just enough time to use all magic commands. If your health is low make sure to heal first then use the other commands. Don’t forget, if you’re defeated you have to start all over again.
Now that you finally have defeated Wargoyle, can relax a bit and defeat Clawbster. Clawbster is the easiest of them all, doesn’t have range attacks and it’s slow. Again use the flow-motion combos and can even evade to use other commands as well your spirit technique to cause some heavy damage to end the battle quick. Once all three bosses are defeated what I would recommend to do is level up to at least level 40. At this point of the game, the player will face back to back bosses between the two characters Riku and Sora. For more Kingdom Hearts gameplay click here!

There is a certain level of enjoyment you are guaranteed when signing on for a movie that boasts a cast of George Clooney, Matt Damon, John Goodman, and Bill Murray. And that's the precise level of enjoyment you'll get from The Monuments Men — that bare minimum smirk factor inherent the idea that your favorite stars are getting to play together. In FDR-era army helmets, no less. But what we also get from the film is an aura of smug self-confidence from project captain Clooney, who seems all too ready to take for granted that we're perfectly satisfied peering into his backyard clubhouse.
So assured is the director/co-writer that we're happy to be in on the game that there doesn't seem to be any effort taken to refine the product for the benefit of a viewing audience. An introductory speech from art historian Frank Stokes (Clooney) sets up the premise straight away: the Nazis are stealing and destroying all of Europe's paintings and sculptures, and by gum we need to stop them! The concept doesn't complicate from there, save for a batting back and forth of the throughline question about whether the preservation of these pieces is "really worth it." Stokes rallies his own Ocean's Seven on a fine arts rescue mission, instigating an old fashioned go-get-'em-boys montage where we learn everything we need to know about the band mates in question: Damon has a wife, Goodman has gumption, Murray doesn't smile, Bob Balaban is uppity, and Jean Dujardin is French.
The closest thing to a character in The Monuments Men comes in the form of Hugh Bonneville, a recovering alcoholic whose motivation to take on the dangerous mission is planted in a festering desire to absolve himself of a lifetime of f**king up. When we're away from Bonneville, the weight disspears, as does most of the joy. Without identifiable characters, even master funnymen like Goodman, Murray, and Balaban don't have much to offer... especially since the movie's jokes feel like first draft placeholders born on a tired night.

But wait a minute, is this even supposed to be a comedy? After all, it's about World War II. And no matter what Alexandre Desplat's impossibly merry score would have you believe (coupled with The Lego Movie, this opening weekend might be responsible for more musical jubilance than any other since the days of "Make 'Em Laugh!"), warfare, genocide, and desecration of international culture all make for some pretty heavy material. But The Monuments Men's drama is just as fatigued as its humor, clumsily piecing together a collection of mini missions wherein the stakes, somehow, never seem to jump. We're dragged through military bases, battered towns, and salt mines by Clooney and the gang — occasionally jumping over to France to watch Damon work his least effective magic in years on an uptight Cate Blanchett, who holds the key to the scruffy American's mission but doesn't quite trust him... until, for no apparent reason, she suddenly does. We never feel like any of these people matter, not even to each other, so we never really feel like their adventures do.
The Monuments Men doesn't have much of a challenge ahead of it. Its heroes are movie stars, its bad guys are Nazis, and its message is one that nobody's going to refute: art is important — a maxim it pounds home with the subtlety of a sledgehammer, through countless scenes of men staring in awe at the works of Michelangelo and Rembrandt. And in this easy endeavor, Clooney decides to coast. How could it possibly go wrong? Just grab hold of the fellas, toss 'em in the trenches, and let the laughs and danger write themselves. "This is what they came to see," Monuments Men insists. "Just us guys havin' a ball." But we never feel in on the game, and it isn't one that looks like that much fun anyhow.

It seems a bit odd to take on a movie review of Courtney Solomon's Getaway, as only in the loosest terms is Getaway actually a movie. We begin without questions — other than a vague and frustrating "What the hell is going on?" — and end without answers, watching Ethan Hawke drive his car into things (and people) for the hour and a half in between. We learn very little along the way, probed to engage in the mystery of the journey. But we don't, because there's no reason to.
There's not a single reason to wonder about any of the things that happen to Hawke's former racecar driver/reformed criminal — forced to carry out a series of felonious commands by a mysterious stranger who is holding his wife hostage — because there doesn't seem to be a single ounce of thought poured into him beyond what he see. We learn, via exposition delivered by him to gun-toting computer whiz Selena Gomez, that he "did some bad things" before meeting the love of his life and deciding to put that all behind him. Then, we stop learning. We stop thinking. We start crashing into police cars and Christmas trees and power plants.
Why is Selena Gomez along for the ride? Well, the beginnings of her involvement are defensible: Hawke is carrying out his slew of vehicular crimes in a stolen car. It's her car. And she's on a rampage to get it back. But unaware of what she's getting herself into, Gomez confronts an idling Hawke with a gun, is yanked into the automobile, and forced to sit shotgun while the rest of the driver's "assignments" are carried out. But her willingness to stick by Hawke after hearing his story is ludicrous. Their immediate bickering falls closer to catty sexual tension than it does to genuine derision and fear (you know, the sort of feelings you'd have for someone who held you up or forced you into accessorizing a buffet of life-threatening crimes).
After Dark Films
The "gradual" reversal of their relationship is treated like something we should root for. But with so little meat packed into either character, the interwoven scenes of Hawke and Gomez warming up to each other and becoming a team in the quest to save the former's wife serve more than anything else as a breather from all the grotesque, impatient, deliberately unappealing scenes of city wreckage.
And as far as consolidating the mystery, the film isn't interested in that either, as evidenced by its final moments. Instead of pressing focus on the answers to whatever questions we may have, the movie's ultimate reveal is so weak, unsubstantial, and entirely disconnected to the story entirely, that it seems almost offensive to whatever semblance of a film might exist here to go out on this note. Offensive to the idea of film and story in general, as a matter of fact. But Getaway isn't concerned with these notions. Not with story, character, logic, or humanity. It just wants to show us a bunch of car crashes and explosions. So you'd think it might have at least made those look a little better.

In a post-Harry Potter Avatar and Lord of the Rings world the descriptors "sci-fi" and "fantasy" conjure up particular imagery and ideas. The Hunger Games abolishes those expectations rooting its alternate universe in a familiar reality filled with human characters tangible environments and terrifying consequences. Computer graphics are a rarity in writer/director Gary Ross' slow-burn thriller wisely setting aside effects and big action to focus on star Jennifer Lawrence's character's emotional struggle as she embarks on the unthinkable: a 24-person death match on display for the entire nation's viewing pleasure. The final product is a gut-wrenching mature young adult fiction adaptation diffused by occasional meandering but with enough unexpected choices to keep audiences on their toes.
Panem a reconfigured post-apocalyptic America is sectioned off into 12 unique districts and ruled under an iron thumb by the oppressive leaders of The Capitol. To keep the districts producing their specific resources and prevent them from rebelling The Capitol created The Hunger Games an annual competition pitting two 18-or-under "tributes" from each district in a battle to the death. During the ritual tribute "Reaping " teenage Katniss (Lawrence) watches as her 12-year-old sister Primrose is chosen for battle—and quickly jumps to her aid becoming the first District 12 citizen to volunteer for the games. Joined by Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) a meek baker's son and the second tribute Effie the resident designer and Haymitch a former Hunger Games winner-turned-alcoholic-turned-mentor Katniss rides off to The Capitol to train and compete in the 74th Annual Hunger Games.
The greatest triumph of The Hunger Games is Ross' rich realization of the book's many worlds: District 12 is painted as a reminiscent Southern mining town haunting and vibrant; The Capitol is a utopian metropolis obsessed with design and flair; and The Hunger Games battleground is a sprawling forest peppered with Truman Show-esque additions that remind you it's all being controlled by overseers. The small-scale production value adds to the character-first approach and even when the story segues to larger arenas like a tickertape parade in The Capitol's grand Avenue of Tributes hall it's all about Katniss.
For fans the script hits every beat a nearly note-for-note interpretation of author Suzanne Collins' original novel—but those unfamiliar shouldn't worry about missing anything. Ross knows his way around a sharp screenplay (he's the writer of Big Pleasantville and Seabiscuit) and he's comfortable dropping us right into the action. His characters are equally as colorful as Panem Harrelson sticking out as the former tribute enlivened by the chance to coach winners. He's funny he's discreet he's shaded—a quality all the cast members share. As a director Ross employs a distinct often-grating perspective. His shaky cam style emphasizes the reality of the story but in fight scenarios—and even simple establishing shots of District 12's goings-on—the details are lost in motion blur.
But the dread of the scenario is enough to make Hunger Games an engrossing blockbuster. The lead-up to the actual competition is an uncomfortable and biting satire of reality television sports and everything that commands an audience in modern society. Katniss' brooding friend Gale tells her before she departs "What if nobody watched?" speculating that carnage might end if people could turn away. Unfortunately they can't—forcing Katniss and Peeta to become "stars" of the Hunger Games. The duo are pushed to gussy themselves up put on a show and play up their romance for better ratings. Lawrence channels her reserved Academy Award-nominated Winter's Bone character to inhabit Katniss' frustration with the system. She's great at hunting but she doesn't want to kill. She's compassionate and considerate but has no interest in bowing down to the system. She's a leader but she knows full well she's playing The Capitol's game. Even with 23 other contestants vying for the top spot—like American Idol with machetes complete with Ryan Seacrest stand-in Caesar Flickerman (the dazzling Stanley Tucci)—Katniss' greatest hurdle is internal. A brave move for a movie aimed at a young audience.
By the time the actual Games roll around (the movie clocks in at two and a half hours) there's a need to amp up the pace that never comes and The Hunger Games loses footing. Katniss' goal is to avoid the action hiding in trees and caves waiting patiently for the other tributes to off themselves—but the tactic isn't all that thrilling for those watching. Luckily Lawrence Hutcherson and the ensemble of young actors still deliver when they cross paths and particular beats pack all the punch an all-out deathwatch should. PG-13 be damned the film doesn't skimp on the bloodshed even when it comes to killing off children. The Hunger Games bites off a lot for the first film of a franchise and does so bravely and boldly. It may not make it to the end alive but it doesn't go down without a fight.
Crystal Lake. Dumb kids in the woods. Sex drugs booze. A hulking maniac in a hockey mask wielding a machete. Yeah that about sums it up.
Are you kidding? The new Jason Derek Mears probably fares best among the actors because he doesn’t have a single word of dialogue. Everyone else unfortunate enough to stumble in front of the camera – Jared Padalecki Amanda Righetti Danielle Panabaker Travis Van Winkle – is basically fodder for the slaughter. Some of them get naked. Most of them get dead. Some die more gorily than others. No one dies quickly enough. Having previously (and woefully) directed the 2003 remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre helmer Marcus Nispel does his best – and worst – to resurrect yet another popular horror franchise from the past. He also adds absolutely nothing new to the formula. Quite frankly anyone could’ve directed this film. Judging by the results anyone did. This is the 12th Friday the 13th film for those keeping score at home and with any luck it’ll be the last. Of course it won’t be. But we can always hope.
What No Reservations needs is a smell-sensitive rat who can cook. Instead we get head chef Kate Armstrong (Catherine Zeta-Jones) a perfectionist who runs the kitchen of a swanky Manhattan eatery with an iron fist. Let’s just say she’s in desperate need of an attitude adjustment so in pops new sous-chef Nick (Aaron Eckhart) a free-spirited fellow who cooks by the seat of his pants. Soon he’s got the whole kitchen staff laughing and loving him way more than Kate. Nick tries to charm Kate too but she won’t have any of it. To top it off Kate unexpectedly becomes the guardian of her 9 year-old niece Zoe (Abigail Breslin) after her sister dies in a car accident. The understandably distraught Zoe is having a tough time and won’t eat any of her aunt’s highfalutin cuisine. The little girl only likes fish sticks—and as it turns out spaghetti a Nick specialty. Yes Nick finally melts Kate’s heart when he gets Zoe to eat a hearty bowl of spaghetti. You can see where this is going right? Love—and tomato sauce—conquers all. When you have two incredibly attractive people onscreen together you want the sparks to fly. Think Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt in Mr. and Mrs. Smith. True those two were falling in love for real but still it makes for a more fulfilling and cinematically romantic experience. But alas it doesn’t always work out and in No Reservations’ case the love story between Zeta-Jones and Eckhart deflates like a fallen soufflé. On their own they each hold up well: Zeta-Jones is good at being steely but emotionally stunted when it comes to matters of the heart while Eckhart’s easy-going charm and great smile make his Nick an obvious choice for any woman. Get them together however and things sag like a wet noodle. Too bad. Breslin is her usual cute self playing it a little more somber than she did in Little Miss Sunshine but the little actress ought to be careful not to pigeon-hole herself into the “eccentric but affecting” kid role. No Reservations also has another knock against it: It’s a remake of the German film Mostly Martha a far more stellar—and original—effort. Natch. Turning a hit foreign film into a studio picture rarely works out; something always gets missed in the translation which for No Reservations is surprising since Mostly Martha writer/director Sandra Nettelbeck is listed as the co-writer. What Nettelbeck did with Mostly Martha is revolve her story around master chef Martha (played brilliantly by Martina Gedeck) and her quirks and anxieties over suddenly having to raise a child. The love story with the Italian chef is more a pleasant surprise than the driving force. But of course with No Reservations the romance is played up for that certain chick flick appeal with two people who have no chemistry. Maybe Nettelbeck was lured into Americanizing her original. For his part director Scott Hicks (Shine) is definitely capable enough to carve out what he can from this predictable set up even adding some flair to the kitchen scenes but he can’t quite push No Reservations past its banality.
She's a hip-hoppin' be-boppin' mean ol' nanny who whips a mean stew and your butt for not doing your homework—and now she's back! Alas we don't speak of the Mrs. Doubtfire sequel but rather that of Big Momma a.k.a. FBI Agent Malcolm Turner (Martin Lawrence). Agent Warner has cut ties with the FBI at the behest of Sherry (Nia Long)—who as you no doubt recall is the granddaughter of the real Big Momma—since she's pregnant with Malcolm's baby. But wouldn't you know that he gets sucked back in after a former colleague is killed. Posing as Big Momma he's hired as a nanny to a suburban family the deadbeat dad of which is involved in the murder and a crime plot. She does it all—cooks cleans dances and even runs down bad guys but it's a race against time to stop the potential national security crisis. That is a race against the film's (mercifully) short running time. Although Lawrence's resume includes some of the dregs of comedy it's hard to argue that he is truly blessed when it comes to physical comedy and comedic timing. He continues both trends here this time without the help of the breakthrough actors of the past two years Paul Giamatti and Terrence Howard who yes both starred in the first Big Momma's House. That means Lawrence's urban mania is truly on its own and absurd and juvenile as the film may be even film snobs can't hold back a few laughs at his Big Momma outlandishness. Longreturns for no more than a select few scenes and to provide a minor conflict in the story. The notable newcomer is CSI's Emily Procter as the sterile mother who hires Big Momma. She does a serviceable job as a suburban Petite Momma. Might she be the next Giamatti or Howard to bolt to bigger and better things in time for the next sequel? No.
Big Momma's House 2 is right up director John Whitesell's alley. He's the guy behind such misses—though not necessarily financially—as Malibu's Most Wanted and See Spot Run and he's right at home here. Whitesell doesn't hold back in (literally and figuratively) pulling the robe off Big Momma but he clearly knows that nothing is to interrupt Lawrence's antics not even the thin story line. Aside from that he knows quite well how to execute thinly veiled rip-offs of the aforementioned Mrs. Doubtfire as well as countless other hidden-motive comedies (i.e. Kindergarten Cop Houseguest et al). Because while the main guise is the Big Momma fat suit Whitesell parades the film about as a feel-good/family flick.

This put a huge smile on my face.
Benedict Cumberbatch sporting Sherlock curls punching Jeremy Clark.
Doesn’t get much better!
Here’s the show’s description:
“In this clip, we’re treated to seeing Benedict’s mother posing with quite a fanciful car, we learn what the BBC Sherlock star drove as his first vehicle, we see host Jeremy Clarkson learn how to take a punch, and determine how well Cumberbatch fared on his timed track laps versus other Star Trek greats.
We also get the secret behind exactly how Sherlock Holmes was able to survive the Reichenbach Fall.”
I think not, but it’s still a good giggle 🙂
Benedict, you can drive my car anytime…
Still on my wishlist: Richard Armitage on Top Gear!
I wonder if he’d be one of those tame sensible drivers, or if he’d release the driving beast within and it’d be pedal to the metal.
BTW, Benedict Cumberbatch has been the face of Jaguar, so I guess the reasonably priced car is a bit of a letdown for him.
By the way, I love how they add “actor” to his name.
Duh, I think we all gathered as much.
With a name like that he could hardly be an accountant!
If the answer to your question whether you want to see more of Ben on Top Gear is HELL YES! here’s a behind the scenes clip:

Designer and Manufacturer of Satellite
We produce remote sensing satellites, satellite platforms and most of satellite subsystems
The Experiences that have been gained from designing and constructing these following projects:
Sina-1 is the first Iranian artificial satellite, launched at 6:52 UTC October 28, 2005 on board a Cosmos-3M Russian launch vehicle from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome.
The satellite was put into a sun synchronous near-polar orbit and imaged the surface with a 50m (pan) with 50km swath and 250m resolution of MSS with 500km swath resolution.The information received from this satellite was used in geological surveys, underground resources, contingencies, remote sensing studies, geographical research and mapping.
Omid was Iran's first domestically made satellite. Omid was a data-processing satellite for research and TT&C communications; Iran's state television reported that it was successfully launched on 2 February 2009. After being launched by an Iranian-made carrier rocket, Safir1, the satellite was placed into a low Earth orbit.
Fajr1 satellite is the first Iranian satellite with the mission of orbital transmission with the ability to change the orbit from 250- 450 km elliptical to 450 km circular orbit using a cold gas thruster. The panchromatic camera was used in this satellite and it imaged 500m resolution.
Fajr2 satellite is an Iranian satellite that was launched in the second half of 2012 and used pulse plasma and cold gas as thrusters. The optical payload resolution of the satellite is 100m panchromatic.
Fajr3 satellite was the third satellite in the Fajr series, which had a panchromatic camera with a resolution of 100 m and 3 cameras in multi spectral with 500m resolution. This satellite used a cold gas thruster and was located in the same orbit as other Fajr satellites.2013
Fajr5 satellite was placed in orbit with a 50m (pan) and 100m (MS) resolution camera. It used solid propellant and cold gas as propulsion subsystem for de-orbit phasing.
Tolo-1 satellite had an imaging payload with 25m (pan) and the mass of this satellite is 100kg. It was the first payload of Simorch LV which is the second generation of Iranian LVs.
SpaceOMID Co.ltd had been started its activities on 21 November 2016 by Dr. Hossein Shahrabi Farahani, project manager of 5 launched satellites to build light and affordable satellites, to develop a low-earth orbit satellite system with the purpose of developing space oriented ecosystem.2018
Kosar satellite starting
Kosar Satellite is the first Spatial product of Space OMID Company which its design was started in fall 2019. This satellite follows Cubesat standard which cause decrement in time and cost of manufacturing procedure. This satellite is equipped with cameras in NIR and RGB spectrum. Kosar is the first Iranian medium resolution satellite with 3.45m GSD which means Kosar is the most advances satellite up to 2021 in Iran. the image of this satellite is going to be used in Precious Agriculture, Mapping, Identification.
The Ultimate Addons For Elementor
HOD-HOD satellite is a CubeSat standard satellite. The mission of this satellite is to create a communication infrastructure in the field of LOT. For this satellite, the mission of collecting data from ground nodes, establishing multipoint communication and also the mission of Store & Forward has been seen. Advantages of using satellite in the field of LOT: Integration and lack of dependence on geographical boundaries to communicate The lack of influence of the geopolitical region in communicating
space launch contract
In November 2022 an agreement was signed between the spaceomid company and the Russian Glaucosmos company for the launch of two satellites, Hodhod and Kosar.
In addition, a memorandum of understanding was signed on long-term cooperation of low-cost space launches with the aim of Satellite constellation.
by God's graceIn December 2023 equivalent to Azar 1402, Iran's first indigenous non-governmental satellite (Hodhud and Kosar) will be sent into the earth's orbit with the Soyuz launcher.
