Описание: This enthralling novel, inspired by the 2006 film, illustrates that fantasy is the sharpest tool to explore the terrors and miracles of the human heart
You shouldn't come in here. You could get lost. It has happened before. I'll tell you the story one day, if you want to hear it.
In fairy tales, there are men and there are wolves, there are beasts and dead parents, there are girls and forests.
Ofelia knows all this, like any young woman with a head full of stories. And she sees right away what the Capitбn is, in his immaculate uniform, boots and gloves, smiling: a wolf.
But nothing can prepare her for the fevered reality of the Capitбn's eerie house, in the midst of a dense forest which conceals many things: half-remembered stories of lost babies; renegade resistance fighters hiding from the army; a labyrinth; beasts and fairies.
There is no one to keep Ofelia safe as the labyrinth beckons her into her own story, where the monstrous and the human are inextricable, where myths pulse with living blood ...

The world’s biggest hotel chain Marriott International today disclosed that unknown hackers compromised guest reservation database its subsidiary Starwood hotels and walked away with personal details of about 500 million guests.
Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide was acquired by Marriott International for $13 billion in 2016. The brand includes St. Regis, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts, W Hotels, Westin Hotels & Resorts, Aloft Hotels, Tribute Portfolio, Element Hotels, Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts, The Luxury Collection, Four Points by Sheraton and Design Hotels.
The incident is believed to be one of the largest data breaches in history, behind 2016 Yahoo hacking in which nearly 3 billion user accounts were stolen.
The breach of Starwood properties has been happening since 2014 after an “unauthorised party” managed to gain unauthorised access to the Starwood’s guest reservation database, and had copied and encrypted the information.
Marriott discovered the breach on September 8 this year after it received an alert from an internal security tool “regarding an attempt to access the Starwood guest reservation database in the United States.”
On November 19, the investigation into the incident revealed that there was unauthorised access to the database, containing “guest information relating to reservations at Starwood properties on or before September 10, 2018.”
The stolen hotel database contains sensitive personal information of nearly 327 million guests, including their names, mailing addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, passport numbers, dates of birth, genders, arrival and departure information, reservation date, and communication preferences.
What’s worrisome? For some users, stolen data also includes payment card numbers and payment card expiration dates.

Peelham Farm at Foulden and Border Organic Eggs in Hutton were visited by the UK Minister for Agriculture and Food, David Heath and Borders MP Michael Moore recently.
Increasing the competitiveness of UK businesses and developing a skilled workforce, particularly in the food and drink sector, is a UK Government goal, and talking to Denise and Chris Walton and Peelham, and the Maclean family at Hutton the Ministers discussed how the government could improve its business support.
Mr Moore said: “Scotland has an incredibly strong food and drink industry and here in the Borders we have many successful local businesses which reflect this.
“Border Organic Eggs and Peelham Farm are examples of Borders businesses which are thriving because they have diversified and innovated and broken into new markets.
“I was very pleased to be able to visit these two farms last week with the UK Agriculture Minister and discuss the ways in which the UK Government can better support farm businesses such as theirs.
“I want to thank Denise Walton and James Maclean in particular for hosting us, and I will work with them and other local businesses to ensure their concerns continue to be heard at the heart of UK Government.”


Reader Delia recently sent us the following question:
What does one do with old, vintage sentimental bed spreads?
If the bedspreads have sentimental value but you no longer wish to keep them, consider asking family members or friends if they would like them. Send an email or letter describing the history of the bedspreads and include a few photos.
If the bedspreads are in good condition, a museum or local historical society may be interested, especially if the quilts handmade by local artisans or citizens of local importance. It always helps if you can provide historical context around the item being donated such as the life of the artisan(s) and the creation of the quilt itself. Occasionally theatre or reenactment groups may need quilts made during a specific time period. They may be willing to accept your donation.
Storing and displaying vintage quilts and bedspreads can be laborious. Antique fabric in general is difficult to handle because it is easily damaged. If you do not have the confidence or ability to manage a project like this, consult a local museum or historical society. They may be able to refer you to someone in your area who can take on your project.
The Great Lakes Quilt Centre provides quite a bit of information on how to clean, store and display antique quilts.
- Washing can enlarge holes and bunch up batting. Wringing and pulling can break seams and damage fibres, especially when they are wet so do not put quilts in a washing machine or hang them on a clothesline. Dry cleaning should also be avoided.
- A gentle vacuuming with low suction through a fiberglass screen is recommended to remove dust.
- In storage, quilts should be folded as few times as possible. Every few months, refold them along different lines to avoid permanent creases. Stuffing the folds with acid-free paper or unbleached muslin can help avoid fold lines.
- Wood, cardboard and plastic can emit chemicals that cause fabric to break down. Store quilts in unbleached, 100% cotton pillowcases or sheets to protect them from light and dust. Acid-free storage boxes are ideal for storing these types of textiles. Quilts can also be rolled onto acid-free tubes and covered with a cotton or muslin sheath to protect them from dust.
- Store quilts in an area that is not subject to fluctuations in temperature and humidity. Ideal conditions are slightly cooler than room temperature and around 50% relative humidity. Avoid light (sunlight and artificial light) because it can damage fibres as well as cause fading.
- To capture historic details of the quilt, iron a piece of muslin to a piece of freezer paper and use a typewriter or laser printer to print the historical information about the quilt. Peel the fabric label from the paper and hand stitch the fabric carefully onto the back of the quilt. You could also use indelible ink to write the information on the muslin by hand and stitch it onto the quilt. It can be helpful to create a muslin pocket to hold other important information such as photos of those who made the quilt or a family tree diagram showing the relationship between the quilt maker and the quilt owner.
Finally, if you still have a sentimental attachment to your quilts and bedspreads but do not feel that it is worth the efforts to properly store them, consider taking photos of the entire quilt and close-up shots of specific fabrics. Write the story of the quilt-maker, how the quilt was made and how it came into your possession. “Publish” the story on your own and share it with your family and friends. Donate the quilt itself to charity or to an animal shelter.

AUTOMATED IRRIGATION SYSTEM
I am working on the development automated irrigation system. It was developed in many areas in agriculture department and the countryside areas to focus on water use for agricultural crops. This robot will be consisting of water sprinklers, soil moisture sensor, temperature sensor, water tank, Bluetooth module, LED screen, humidity sensor. These all parts will help us in development of irrigation system. This robot will easy to operate because of the Bluetooth module. In the previous time this process takes too much time and effort but my purpose is to reduce the time and man power. It will also save water as per the soil moisture sensor gives the instruction sprinkler will not spill the water.
In the snappy paced worldwide people require the entire parcel to be programmed. Our reality style needs everything to be faraway controlled. Aside from few issues man has made his life programmed. In the part of create hardware, life of people must be less difficult. Henceforth to make life simpler and advantageous, we have made “Programmed IRRIGATION SYSTEM”. A model of controlling water system offices to help a huge number of individuals. This model utilizes detecting course of action age with microcontroller to make a sharp exchanging instrument. The constant expanding request of dinners requires the quick improvement in nourishment creation age. In a nation like India, in which the monetary framework is principally founded absolutely on horticulture and the climatic conditions are isotropic, still we aren’t fit for utilize rural assets. The major reason for existing is the lack of downpours and deficiency of land supply water. Water system has always been a notable practice which has progressed through such a significant number of stages throughout the years. Our hereditary ranchers in an offer to flood their homestead searched for various strategies. Manual water system the utilization of basins and watering jars, flood water system, trickle water system, sprinkler water system have been and are in any case being utilized today. The flow framework has various limits; filtering off of soil supplements, disintegration in view of flooding, loss of water from plant surfaces by means of vanishing, water wastage that may result to water deficiency in dry spell districts and assembling of hazardous yields. This problem might be corrected in the event that we use microcontroller based programmed water system machine wherein the water system will take zone best while there may be intense necessity of water. Robotization of water system contraption alludes back to the activity of the machine without an or least manage intercessions. Water system robotization is legitimized in which an enormous flooded zone is partitioned into Small sections known as water system squares and fragments are inundated in accumulation to fit the discharge to be had from the water supply. In such manner, the works that we have reviewed portray the one of a kind types of automated water system strategies, how they in all actuality have filled the need and the essential contrast among our endeavour and those literary works that we’ve thought about. On this detail, the overarching works “Connected building in agribusiness, “Information securing device and water system controller and “Robotization in Micro-Irrigation, utilizes subsurface trickle water system the utilization of dribble tapes and are time based structures wherein water system time clock controllers, or clocks, are a major piece of a computerized water system machine. A clock is a significant gadget to utilize water inside the vital amount at the correct time. Clocks can prompt beneath or over-water system in the event that they’re not adequately customized or the water amount is determined erroneously. Time of activity is determined in accordance with volume of water required and the regular float charge of water a clock begins off evolved and stops the water system framework. It routinely plans water system at arbitrary occasions through the use of clocks in which inside the computerization for the gadget and introductions have been not connected. The papers titled ” Feedback Control for Surface Irrigation Management and “Control and Automation in Citrus Micro-water system Systems, utilizes open circle structures in which the administrator settles on the choice on the amount of water to be connected and the planning of the water system occasion. The controller is customized correspondingly and the water is executed predictable with the favoured timetable. Open circle control frameworks utilize both the water system span and a specific executed degree for control purposes. Open circle controllers ordinarily incorporate a clock this is utilized to start water system. End of the water system can be basically founded on a pre-set time or can be founded on an assigned amount of water passing through a float meter. In an open circle framework, the administrator settles on the decision on the measure of water a decent method to be connected and keeping in mind that the water system event will happen. This record is customized into the controller and the water is connected by the ideal time table. Open circle control frameworks use either the water system length or a unique connected volume for control purposes. The weakness of open circle structures is their powerlessness to answer routinely to changing over circumstances in nature. Furthermore, they will require visit resetting to acquire high degrees of water system execution. (htt18)
Literature reviewof soil sensor:
ABSTRACT Published attempts to measure soil moisture content using soil-implanted electrodes were reviewed. The literature review primarily covered domestic, agricultural-related research during the past century. The review indicated a general feeling of doubt about the accuracy and reliability of the resistance method to determine soil moisture. However, most researchers stated that the method showed promise and warranted further study. The reviewed literature proposed methods of eliminating changing probe-to-surface contact. Rather than eliminating this phenomenon, a resistance-based sensor presently under development utilized this trait as one variable in soil moisture determination.
Literature review of water level indicator sensor:
• In 2015, 663 million people did not have access to improved drinking water; the majority lived in the rural, water scarce regions of lesser developed nations. Global discussions of water scarcity had begun in the mid-1970’s, and over the following 30 years, several water availability indicators evolved to try to understand this water availability quandary. This thesis provides an integrative literature review to identify and describe the current water availability indicators that are most commonly used to assess regional potable water resources around the world. It then assesses the adequacy of those indicators for use in the developing, semi-arid, rural regions of the globe with a focus on measuring community access to available water. One key finding is that existing indicators metrics focus solely on the physical availability of the water, but do not include metrics for quantity or quality or readily available access to it. This thesis also finds that while the base data collected for the indicators are at the spatial scale of country or region; these data are often arbitrarily applied to the local scale. This scalar variation is then found to create erroneous availability statistics. The resulting conclusion is that there is a need for an indicator, which more accurately represents access to water at the local level. Also discussed are the socio-economic issues of access that are missing from current indicators. For water access indicators to work at the local level, they must use data beyond water quantity and quality measured at the national or regional scale. Water access indicators need to be: easy to calculate, cost effective to implement, scalable to the micro-level, based on existing data, developed using a transparent process and, not least, must be easy to understand by all the stakeholders. Ideal indicators will use data and new technologies that include scalable tools that allow selection and use of appropriate water purification tactics.

Framework in this undertaking is the best decision, it contain many open stock equipment and programming.
Selection of materials
The initial step of this procedure of structure the model of the mechanized water system framework was the selection of materials for this undertaking are known, which are appropriate and significance to agribusiness, inquire about was attempted to choose materials.
Field Control System
This progression relies upon the working of various sensors utilized in this undertaking which are (dampness, temperature, light, and downpour).
To assemble the structure of this undertaking, two tables had used to make parts of the venture progressively fixed. In any case, to make an ideal structure, size were estimated for each part that will be utilized in the venture later on. Spots of (siphons, valve, and stream meter), kind of adaptable pipe to be fit. Kinds of various sensors dependent on the condition that will chip away at, two 12 volt battery, little plastic tank, LCD screen to screen following of water, the diverse kind of associating wires, and controller (Adriano type AT mega 328V).
To start with, sketch plan for the venture was made, at that point estimations, size required for structuring the undertaking. These are old style and present day strategies for both the lab and in situ estimations. The old style soil dampness estimation strategies incorporate thermo-gravimetric, calcium carbide neutron dispersing, gypsum square and densitometer methods the cutting edge strategies use soil resistivity sensor, tensiometer,infrared dampness parity and dielectric strategies like Time Area Relectometry (TDR), Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) capacitance procedure, heat transition soil dampness sensors, smaller scale electro mechanical frameworks and optical techniques Estimation of water substance dependent on sensor estimations gives constant, in situ estimations at a moderately reasonable cost. Soil dampness sensors conceivably give the way to flood as per the exceptional attributes of guaranteed crop in a given field. These sensors can be utilized as an ‘independent’ strategy, or their utilization can be joined with the FAO technique, or they can be utilized to supplement water system the board dependent on
Robotizing ranch or nursery water system frameworks permits ranchers to apply the perfect measure of water at the opportune time, paying little heed to the accessibility of work to turn valves on and off. It just permits the client to screen and keep up the dampness level remotely regardless of time. On the off chance that the plants get water at the best possible time, at that point it builds the creation from 25% to 30%[81,82] Conventional instrumentation dependent on discrete and wired arrangements, presents numerous challenges on estimating and control frameworks particularly over the huge geological zones. In the event that various types of sensors (that is, temperature, stickiness, and so forth.) are associated with such water system in future works, it tends to be said that a web based remote control of water system mechanization will be conceivable.

Liverpool & Tottenham Battling To Sign £35m-Rated Hitman
Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are battling-it-out to try and sign £35m-rated striker Moussa Marega this summer, according to reports
Managers are now making plans for the summer transfer window so we’ll bring you all the latest news and gossip from around the globe. Today, Liverpool and Tottenham are linked with Moussa Marega…
Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are battling-it-out to try and sign £35m-rated striker Moussa Marega this summer, according to the Sun.
Marega played his way through the lower leagues of French football during his early years before joining Portuguese outfit Maritimo in 2015 where he began to make his name.
The 25-year-old did enough to attract interest from two of Portugal’s biggest clubs and Porto ended up pipping Sporting Lisbon to his signature in January 2016.
The powerful forward was sent out on loan to Vitoria Guimaraes last summer and he’s enjoyed an excellent campaign having scored 12 goals in his 21 appearances to help the club to their current fifth-placed position in the Primeira Liga table.
It appears Marega’s potential has also caught the attention of clubs here in the Premier League as the Sun claim that Liverpool and Tottenham are now battling-it-out over his signature ahead of a potential summer move.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is expected to be busy in the transfer market this summer with a striker likely to be on the agenda as Daniel Sturridge is being tipped to leave Anfield and it appears Marega is on the German coaches radar.
Tottenham are also expected to be in the market for striking reinforcements as Mauricio Pochettino needs to ease the burden on Harry Kane with Vincent Janssen struggling to make an impact following his move last summer, and the Spurs boss also seemingly has his eye on Marega.
However, the striker may not come cheap as he’s contracted to Porto until 2020, so the club are under no pressure to sell, and the Sun claim his buy-out clause is set at a whopping £35m.
Marega has experience in Europe and has 7 caps for the Mali national team but I personally don’t think he’s worth anywhere near £35m – even in today’s over-inflated market – so I’d be shocked if either Liverpool or Spurs were prepared to pay that figure.
We’ll have to wait and see how things develop over the coming weeks but my feeling is that Porto will have to lower their demands considerably if we’re to see Marega move to England this summer.

S. Rogers - Thanks for sharing freely. The notes you provided on heirloom tomatoes painted a clear picture of your cropping system. The notes you've shared on marketing are really helpful, too. You got a favorite spreadsheet program for planning? Maybe you said as much, I don't read all the postings. I was in Portland for agriculture in 2003 and it's an impressive city for sustainable living and culture. I've never seen as many neighborhood restautants, sidewalk bistros, and coffee houses as they exist in Portland. Good quality wholesome food, too. They commonly featured "which" local farm they buy their produce from, right on the menu. The City Repair project in Portland -- converting 4-way neighborhood street corners into community gathering spots -- was impressive. The community garden at Luscher Farm is well organized and pleasant to "be around." Good, well defined wood chip pathways make all the difference for community gardens. They use lots of cardboard underneath the wood chips. The cost of membership goes towards the expense of supplying compost for each plot.

The work done by a Scottish red meat body to 'protect and enhance' the sector's reputation has 'never been more important', its chair has said.
Quality Meat Scotland (QMS) has encouraged people working in the red meat sector to support forthcoming campaigns to communicate the industry’s positive messages.
In the coming weeks, the new ‘Meat with Integrity’ campaign will focus on the industry’s sustainability and animal welfare messages.
The public body is inviting farmers and others who work in the industry to help with the campaign.
Speaking at a briefing to announce further activity plans for the year ahead, Kate Rowell, QMS Chair, emphasised a key focus of the organisation’s activity for the 2019/20 year will be to increase the work it does to promote the industry.
Mrs Rowell said further industry support will make a 'huge difference': “In the coming weeks we will be launching our brand new ‘Meat with Integrity’ campaign which focuses on the industry’s sustainability and animal welfare messages.”
She added: “As a farmer and a vet I am well aware of the challenges faced by our industry and equally aware of the dedication and sheer hard graft that goes into producing the nutritious food source that is quality assured beef, lamb and pork.
“Having spoken with hundreds of people I am also aware of the immense frustration being felt at grassroots level about the wave of unbalanced media coverage driven by some very well-funded organisations with an anti-red meat agenda.”
'Know your beef'
QMS is, she said, delighted with the response from the industry in support of the recent ‘Know Your Beef’ campaign and keen to build on this in coming months.
“We are encouraging everyone to miss no opportunities to share their pride in the care and commitment which goes into producing the quality assured beef, lamb and pork we are famed for throughout the world.”
It comes as the body launches a video as part of its support of LEAF Open Farm Sunday on June 9th to encourage farmers to support the initiative.
“We have this week launched a video as a final major push in our drive to support LEAF’s Open Farm Sunday initiative in Scotland to reach its target of 30 farms actively involved this year,” Mrs Rowell said.
“There is a real opportunity ahead of us to unite as an industry to communicate our commitment to sustainable farming and our moral obligation to produce a nutrient dense food source from a land with abundant water which is ideally suited to converting grass into food.”
She said Scottish livestock farmers share an 'immense pride' in their role in maintaining Scotland’s landscape and providing habitats for wildlife some of which could not survive without the existence of grazing animals.
“We will also be asking farmers and others involved in our industry to join with us in actively celebrating and showcasing farmers’ commitment to enriching the environment on their farms, ahead of World Environmental Day on June 5th,” Mrs Rowell added.


Trial run for Hyderabad Metro to commence after Oct 15

Traveling With Kids Has Never Been Easier with Melissa Joan Hart’s Useful Tips
Growing up in the 90s, we looked up to Melissa Joan Hart for fashion advice, how to wade through challenges at school, and also how best to handle our siblings.
Clarissa Darling, the character Hart played in the 1991-1994 Clarissa Explains It All was relatable and impactful, and fans are pleased to know that the actress is quite similar to her Darling in real life as well.
Still with Her
It’s been almost two decades since Hart stole our hearts through her hit television show, and our eyes are still on her, this time for a whole other different reason. The actress is a mother of three now! How time flies! And if you were a Clarissa fan back in the day, you must be a parent too by now, right?
The 43-year-old actress has mastered the art of raising three handsome boys when most of us can’t even fathom the idea of raising one. Luckily for her, she has cracked the parenting code, with the help of her supportive husband, and is enjoying motherhood.
Among the things she loves doing with her family is traveling, and necessity has had her come up with ways to make every adventure enjoyable with her young ones.
She is so much into it that she’s recently partnered with KBB to announce a list of latest cars that suit families best for road trips.
Speaking to Forbes’ Lippe-McGraw, Hart admitted to her family being big on traveling, but ones who have no love for flying. Instead, they prefer a good old road trip, such as the seven-hour drive from LA to Lake Tahoe which they take frequently.
They also drive all the way to San Diego to visit her sister, and the actress also revealed that they’ve driven from Connecticut to Vermont whereas plans to head out to Yosemite on Mother’s Day are also currently in the works.
You may be wondering; how does she keep her kids in check all this while considering how hyperactive boys are! According to Hart, she makes sure that they are always well stocked on games, toys and snacks whenever they head out on a road trip.
Her choice of vehicle comes in very handy with these types of adventures – an SUV that ensures there’s space for everything and everyone. When no one is infringing on the other’s personal space, the ride will be comfortable and more fun, even with three kids!
The 43-year-old also insists on having an entertainment system installed in the car. For her, she prefers one where the kids can wear their individual headsets and watch their favorite cartoons or movies.
This way, she can listen to her favorite jams while they’re in the backseat watching something entirely different.
Hart disagrees with those who insist on their kids being off any screen while traveling, saying that having them use these devices is a life saver.
Moving away from her personal life and into her career, Hart also spoke to Lippe-McGraw about her upcoming Netflix flick titled No Good Nick. Of the show, the actress described it as unique, and one fit for all family consumption.
In her words, the show is like a toned down version of Scandal. And we all know what Kerry Washington did with that, don’t we? According to Hart, just a few episodes in, and the show’s plot twists will leave you mind-blown. We wish her all the best!

Answer: Your plain old dirt can be turned into rich, loamy soil with the addition of organic matter. If you need additional soil to fill your planter bed you can purchase 3-way topsoil (contains compost, sand and garden soil). If you do this, mix your plain old dirt and the topsoil together, then spread a 4-5" layer of organic matter over the top and mix it in well. If you don't need to purchase topsoil to fill your bed, you can amend your plain old soil with 4-5" of organic matter. After planting, spread another 2-3" of organic matter over the bare soil to help suppress weeds and slow water evaporation. At the end of next gardening season dig this organic matter into the soil and replace it with a new layer. A few years of incorporating organic matter into your plain old dirt will transform it into rich, loamy soil.
Best wishes with your new planter beds.

Subjects studied: Level 3 Extended Diploma in Creative Media Production and Technology
Former school: Truro School
What’s next: Study Film Production at university
Outside of studying his diploma, Finn created a short, animated film called ‘The Big Secret’ and came runner up in a Cornish film competition. The competition was judged by an award-winning industry panel including Toby Haynes, the director of ‘Black Mirror’ and ‘Dr Who’, Cornwall-based TV producer Philippa Giles and Mark Jenkin, the BAFTA award-winning Cornish writer and director of ‘Bait’. After getting the thumbs up from the panel, Finn now has his eye on Hollywood.
Finn said: “I’m applying to five universities in London, all film production courses. Last week, I handed in my application to the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts. It’s meant to be one of the best film schools in the world.
“I knew that making films is what I wanted to do as my career, but my parents suggested to do maths and physics instead. After I visited the Open Day they saw how great the facilities are and what the course involved, and they said to go for it.
“It’s great to be with students at Truro College who are creatively focused, bouncing ideas for stories and then having the opportunity, facilities and studios to go out and film.
“Compared to secondary school, it’s more independent. In my case, I like to work independently, but still having that support there if I need it is great.”

Just in time for the International Day of Giving, “Giving Tuesday ”, on November 28, 2017, Daikin – the world's leading manufacturer and distributor of air conditioning, heat pumps and cooling solutions – publishes details of its charitable activities in 2017.
Vienna, November 28th 2017 – Empathy has many facets and is one of the preconditions for human coexistence. Even a small act can make an enormous difference. For this reason, Daikin launched the international charity initiative "Daikin For Life" in 2006. Under the guiding principle "We care about people", various local organizations in Central and Eastern Europe are selected every year and supported with a donation.
Achieving more together
Doing something for those in need keeps humanity together. Many charitable organizations finance themselves mainly through donations and could not exist without the help of society. The air-conditioning specialist is aware of this, that is why Corporate Social Responsibility is part of the corporate culture. “We are delighted to support great projects year after year. We want to make our contribution to both nature and society”, emphasized Carl Lievens, Managing Director of Daikin Central Europe.
Donations instead of gifts
Christmas is a time of giving. Instead of spending large sums of money on printed Christmas cards or expensive gifts, Daikin prefers to support charities and people in need. “We want to help where support is most urgently needed and ensure that it reaches the right places”, said Lievens.
A European initiative of giving
All countries of Daikin Central Europe are involved in “Daikin For Life”. The employees of most countries are included in the decision, which local organization receives the donation this year.

While negotiations over a possible new or revised nuclear deal with Iran have reached a deadlock, it appears that Israel and Iran are further escalating the covert war between them. There are all sorts of things going on that are largely hidden from the public outside of Israel, but which are constantly occupying the security echelon in the country.
The covert war between Israel and Iran has grown in intensity over the past month.
Israeli warplanes, for example, bombed Iran-related targets in Syria near the border with Iraq late Sunday night.
It was the third Israeli strike on Iranian targets in Syria in just over a week. Previously, the Israeli military used missiles to destroy Iran-related targets near Damascus.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah last week warned Israel that a direct attack by Iran on Israel has become increasingly likely.
Nasrallah also claimed that the recent terror attacks on civilians in Israeli cities exposed “the weakness of the Zionist regime.”
Iran on the Temple Mount
Iran was also behind the explosion of violence on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem during Passover, it has now become clear.
Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) was instructed by Ali Akhbar Velayati, a former foreign minister of Iran and now one of the chief advisers to Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
During a telephone conversation between PIJ leader Ziyad al-Nakhalah and Velayati, Khamenei’s adviser said that PIJ must do everything to “thwart plots against the oppressed Palestinian people.”
Shortly thereafter, on the eve of Passover, violent riots began at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount and PIJ launched a total of five rockets at southern Israel.
Hamas bares its teeth
Hamas, meanwhile, has completely lost control over PIJ and now limits itself to verbal attacks on Israel.
Last Saturday night Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar gave a speech that was broadcasted on Quds TV in Gaza.
During that speech, Sinwar warned Israel not to “desecrate” Al-Aqsa again or it would have to deal with a salvo of 1,111 rockets.
The Hamas leader also threatened that his terror group would attack synagogues around the world if Israeli actions against Palestinian rioters on the Temple Mount resumed.
War of words
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett responded to Sinwar’s speech with cynical remarks about the Hamas leader, saying Hamas was out to topple his government and apparently longed for the suitcases full of cash from Qatar.
Bennett’s remark regarding Hamas’s attempts to overthrow the Israeli government had to do with Sinwar’s words about the Arab party Ra’am, which is part of the coalition but has temporally frozen its participation in Bennett’s government over alleged Israeli aggression against the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Sinwar called Ra’am a bunch of collaborators and called on the party to permanently leave Bennett’s government.
However, the verbal battle between Hamas and the Israeli government is nothing compared to what is happening between Iran and Israel.
Hackers from Iran attack ‘targets’ in Israel almost daily and managed to shut down the websites of Israeli radio stations last week.
The websites featured the word “hacked” and a number of Israeli logos on the home page.
Also featured were images of the Temple Mount riots and a video of a rocket launching while a siren was blaring.
Seeking local collaborators
On Monday, Israel’s internal security service Shin Bet, or ISA, furthermore revealed that Iran was trying to recruit Israelis through a fake Facebook account in order to carry out terror attacks on Israeli targets.
The Israelis who responded to the messages from the Iranians were asked to communicate further via WhatsApp where they were instructed to spy on sensitive targets in Israel and were offered thousands of dollars as a reward.
Israel, meanwhile, does not stand idly by as Iran tries to hit the Jewish state in different ways.
Last weekend it was announced that the Israeli spy agency Mossad had been carrying out another operation within the borders of the Islamic Republic.
Mossad agents broke into the home of a member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in Iran and questioned him about an assassination plot against an Israeli diplomat in Turkey.
The man, Mansour Rasouli, had also been ordered to murder a Jewish journalist in France and an American general in Germany.
The Shin Bet was also reportedly involved in the interrogation of Rasouli in Iran, something that almost never happens. Israel’s domestic intelligence service deals almost exclusively with Palestinian terrorists and Israeli Arabs who plan attacks or engage in other belligerent activities in Israel.
Rasouli was released after the interrogation and said he would never again participate in murderous plots.
The revelations about Mossad activities against the IRGC show that Israel rightly put pressure on the US administration of President Joe Biden to keep the organization on the list of terror groups.
The Americans recently seemed to succumb to pressure from Iran to remove the IRGC from its list of terror organizations.
Iran made this demand in Vienna during the protracted talks to repair or revise the 2015 nuclear deal, as the Biden Administration wants.
Israel has consistently pressured Biden not to give in to pressure from Iran and to prepare “Plan B,” in other words, military action in the event that the Vienna talks fail.
Israel has also repeatedly asked the Americans to include Iran’s belligerent and imperialist activities in the Middle East during the negotiations for a renewed nuclear deal.
However, Iran does not want to hear about concessions on this matter and is not even prepared to discuss the problem during the indirect negotiations with the Americans in Vienna.
Ongoing nuclear activity
Meanwhile, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported that Iran has opened an underground production line for manufacturing its next-generation uranium enrichment centrifuges in Natanz.
Part of this production line came from the now-closed Karaj nuclear facility, which was previously the target of Mossad sabotage.
The latest IAEA report shows that Iran is only using the negotiations in Vienna to buy time.
According to Israeli media reports, Iran has now enriched enough uranium up to 60 percent to build an atomic bomb within a short time span.
The same reports emphasize that further enriching uranium from 60 percent to the 90 percent needed for the production of a nuclear weapon takes just a few weeks.
