Project published in Form&Data Collective Housing Projects: An Anatomical Review

Amann Cánovas Maruri presents a four tower complex of collective housing, which is located on a triangular plot linking two avenues. Fragmenting the two volumes and moving the building bays along the axis of the central corridor, enhances the insertion of the volumes into the limited surface area of the plot and maximizes to the full the views from the dwellings. As far as the perception from the exterior is concerned, the fanshape of the linear blocks creates a permeable urban street front. The high density of the operation, with a Floor Area Ratio of 4.31, contrasts with the low plot coverage, 0.37, which is in line with the decision to preserve the openness of the plot by creating a public plaza.

New Year, New Balance. The latest from the Boston brand is the 574 ‘Peak to the Streets’ pack.
New Balance is known for creating some of the most timeless and comfortable sneakers. To kick off this year, it looks it has cooked up two new variations inspired by the original 574 model. Placing a special emphasis on on the classic silhouette’s off-road origins, one pair will be a 574 Sport, and the other, a 574 Classic.
The 574 Classic is built more for the streets and casual wear, while the 574 Sport is engineered for rugged terrain. Both low-profile silhouettes feature a mixture of textured suede and nubuck with mismatching heel details.
Each sneaker rides atop a full ENCAP midsole and a rubber outsole. The pack’s minimalistic and neutral style is perfect for the spring time, and will likely pair well with most outfits.
The New Balance ‘Peaks to Streets’ Pack is set to drop Saturday, January 13, at retailers like Hanon. Each pair will be priced at $120.

Grilled salad? Crisp cool greens over fiery coals? It sounds like an oxymoron. But you know the BarbecueBible.com credo: If something tastes great raw, roasted, or tossed, it probably tastes better grilled.
No, your eyes haven’t deceived you: You’re staring at a Smoke-Roasted Berry Crisp. It’s just one of the sweet yet smoky surprises we have for you this Independence Day.
To celebrate Father’s Day, we have blog posts on what three barbecue masters plan to teach their kids about live fire cooking and 10 tools you need for Father’s Day.
No doubt you enjoyed a burger or six over the long Memorial Day weekend, but don’t put down the buns just yet, because the celebration isn’t over.
Just in time for barbecue season: the all new barbecuebible.com.
This month, we’re focusing on budget grilling, and in particular, two cuts that deliver a big bang for the buck: turkey legs and country-style spare ribs.
This year, bypass the vacuum-sealed pouches of corned beef at the supermarket and make your own.
It’s that time of year again—time for us to roll out our annual Barbecuer’s Gift Guide, featuring must-have products for anyone obsessed with grilling, barbecuing, or smoking.
And now back to that turkey. We season it with a garlic- and cumin-scented Spanish-Caribbean marinade called adobo.
We’re sharing our 12 Steps to Tailgating Enlightenment, plus a sizzling new recipe for Firecracker Chicken Wings.
I’m thrilled to announce the publication of my first ever video-enhanced ebook: Secrets of the World’s Best Grilling: A Video and Recipe Master Class.
So what possessed the author of PLANET BARBECUE and HOW TO GRILL to try his hand at fiction? And why should a barbecue fanatic like you read it?

This is about a print that is out of this world, that I'm hoping will take me with it. As more of a fan of artistry, than the scary, galaxy is what grabbed me for this year's halloween.
Product List, face paint, colourful powder shadow palette, and patience at the ready, we're going all galactic.
For my hair, I went for a wind tunnel wooshed back - like when you would take your ballet show bun out, but the hairspray would keep the slicked back in place. For some reason I associate the slicked back 'just got out of the shower' hair with sassy women and space.
Seperate, set away from the face, tease till you just can't tease anymore. Though I used hairspray (great glitter hairspray excuse), would recommend gel for inetnse hold - I had to touch up and it just ended up a bit more chav than chic.
As you can see from the paler shade of my tee, I'm going for skin shade NCPastel - more pale than most of space is really, but when it fits the costume, it's more convincing.
WARNING - they make white look very yellow - not just your teeth, but eyeballs, and my very white door, even with evening flash.
Do sketch out general shapes lightly if you need guidance, I just improvised, and referenced my top.
General theme of working lighter to darker, periodically shading, chopping between areas and colours; movement is more realistic than just random splodges - I not only followed the general shade range, but the spread on my tee. Aim not to be symmetrical, the less you think about it the better.
I paired the complimentary colours together on separate sides of the sponge, for easy chop and change blending - (green and blue) (pink and purple) (white) sponge; make sure to always wash the white in separate water, too keep the colour crisp. Face Paint is very potent, you don't need much to get opaque colour - be wary pink can look a little like illness on the face. Though I do love the look of it concealing my lips, it's not as longwearing - could choose, purple, pink, blue lipstick or liner?
It starts clown, but keep with me.
Sponge face paint application - the sky is not splodges, so I had 2 stages.
1. Colour. Start with the wetter sponge = more watery stamp, but block colour. Try to blend, and it can get a bit wishy washy. Hence
2. Soften when set. The dryer the sponge, the more spray paint like print - colour intensity dosen't suffer, it just creates softer gradeint. When dry, bump over borders with a bit of paint to blur lines - first patting off any access onto a tissue - no need to mix colours first, the bumping will for you.
Borders between tones still too harsh? Dull down with your very own rubber; not unlike with eyeshadow brushes, a productless apparatus (in this case sponge), is perfect to blend not yet set colours together.
Aim to cover all skin, but try not to overlap so much your take over the tone; back track by adding more of the other colour back in if needs be.
More of a sponge than makeup brush job, but chopping between tools will not only keep the colour's clean, but well blended. Tip: Ring finger with a bit of colour makes the best smudger.
You could simply stick with face paint, but generally the result is more patchy, very matte, and flat, so I added dimension in the form of shadows; some shimmery, some simply for shading. I do know better in terms of quality, but range and value for money trumps all others; the ebay 120 pan palette. Advantage to sheer shadows? Show's colour underneath, more subtle and softly smudgy.
Space shades eb and flow, with stars/matter, lights, and differing atmospheres - for all said requirements, differing techniques.
I used the same blending brush for all border smudging, and bringing out the deeper features (softening any edges with my larger blush brush), for continuity; make sure to wipe clean every now and then to stop from getting too 'not meant to be' messy.
Unlike with watercolour - although it sets, there is scope to add and mix colours afterwards without removing the product underneath. That is upset once you add a different media, but overall it's a changable canvas.
Said brush was also great for creating the effect of a splattering of softer stars (a ft on the top), with the white face paint; softened colour, but tapping, and taking away excess with my fingers.
Carried the corresponding colours into the hair line and ears, so it looks less like a mask, and more like a mirage. I thought about doing my hands aswell, but the reality is, I had to do stuff.
Yes, an advantage of water based paint is it sets down, and feels like nothing on the skin, but despite appearances, this stuff can get everywhere.
Going top to toe? If you involve clothing, make sure the paint fades into it. What if?
As sporadic placing and sizing as possible. On my face, I followed my spots (as random as real life gets); elsewhere, I let the pencil decide how I placed. For the effect of 'shining stars', an uneven cross over the star stamp, with help from a small makeup brush.
Effective extras include, flicking paint w old toothbrush for a speckled effect (couldn't find one or risk my room getting ruined), or bringing in the metallics.
I felt like my features got a bit lost in the merging of colours - may be the look you're going for? Mine's more, I'm a girl/extraterrestrial with galaxy print, rather than being the galaxy, which allows for more artistic licence.
Hence - bringing in my everyday makeup steps, just with more unsual colours, to the layering mix.Subsequent shading (both light and dark) with various shadows, and various sized brushes, to all the highlights/lowlights/borders of the colours, or my facial/decolletage features; as added matter, and faux shine on the stars.
More layers equals more tone dimension.
Navy became my depth tone - calling my metallic blue liner, ft from last year's halloween 'I Robot', into play.
One, as contour - on the face, in disguise as meteor showers.
Second, as an eyebrow substitute. Due to my brows being dark, they went grey under the colour rather than covered up; by way of individual eyebrow hairs, I drew them back in so's not to look uneven and somewhat forgotten.I softened the brow liner with my dual ended brow brush, with help from an eyeshadow, equivalent to that of the brow's background. No need to set, this liner sticks like glue.
Think you're done blending? blend a bit more.
Then to finish - readjusted the slick back, and added a final spritz of hair spray.
FINI - dreary to galaxy
If I was gunna do a halloween look, this is what it would be - I just left it a little late to see. Maybe it's the inner space geek coming out in me - but all I want to be for halloween is metalic and magnificent.
Extra terrestrial makeup - you could just do eyes, half face, a twirl? I went for the whole bust; it even looks like i'm not wearing a top - why would I be happy about that on my blog I hear you ask? - means my makeup truly blends in.
Looks like I've gone up a technicolor chimney or the powder paint in the art room has just exploded, but you could follow this face paint technique into other outfit options.
- Cloud, White walker, A painting, A fairy? To name a few; switch out the accessories and you have a whole host of possibilites in your hands. Could go with any last minute outfit - Black, Pastel-y, Catsuit, if you have one in your closet. Co-ordinate with colours - Black and white would look eery, perfectly demonstrated thanks to the computer.
|Please don't mock my paint cropping skills - the galaxy print is not my own* but please let me keep it.|
Now I know what it feels like a to be a all out costume, freeze then move, busker (at home); can't touch anything - 3 step face wash, shower, then bath, with reminiscence of blue eyebrows for the weekend. If only you could put this kind of creation on like clothing - could be seeing my face in the stars more often.
It is a bit tricky, but works a treat

I love capturing fire. And by fire, I mean the natural sexiness, intensity and playfulness that’s seen in couples who are in true, blissful love.

With this buzz, couples boudoir photography is also becoming increasingly popular. Yes, I said “couples”. It’s true: boudoir is not just for ladies! A session can be absolutely amazing when men join in the fun as well. After all, what better thing is there to share than feeling sexy and confident together?
You may be wondering if the photo session can feel awkward. The answer is no… not at all! Our session will be totally relaxed, and the energy will be lighthearted and fun.

The answer to that is also no. When you book a couples boudoir session with me, I’ll provide direction for all of the poses so that you and your significant other will feel completely at ease. These professional sessions are always very fun and lively, and you’ll be amazed at the classy images they produce.
Couples boudoir can be the perfect way to celebrate an engagement or an anniversary… or just any blissful day in love! In the end, you’ll have a sexy set of images to look back on forever. What could be more romantic than that?

Everyone who thought the Eastern Conference Finals would be a short series probably was a bit surprised by last night's contest. The The Montreal Canadians team, that we had seen in the first two rounds, returned and beat the Philadelphia Flyers 5-1 at the Bell Center.
All of the Hab's difficulties of the first two games disappeared as they solved the scoring problem and scored early and often and never really let the Flyers get a foothold. Joroslav Halak also returned to form and received much better support from his defense.
Michael Leighton, who had been unbelievable for the last three games, came back to earth and seemed very average. To be fair, he had bad breaks on a couple of the goals, but it was obvious that he was not at his best.
Saturday's game will be interesting as both teams make adjustments. Remember it is a day game at 2:00 CDT on NBC.
Tonight we will see if the San Jose Sharks still have any life in them after two home losses to the Chicago Blackhawks. Two days off had to be helpful to the Sharks as they were not able to keep up with the Hawks in the first two games.
The Hawks have played so well on the road in the postseason so they decided to stay in a Chicago hotel last night to emulate the road experience.
I have a feeling that the Sharks may make a brief comeback in one of the two games in Chicago, but I don't see them taking the series.
The game gets underway tonight at 7:00 p.m. CDT on Versus.
The field was cut in half at the World Championships on Thursday. The simi-finals are set for Saturday with Sweden playing the Czech Republic and the dominant Russian team playing the home-standing Germans. The winners meet on Sunday in the finals.
Yesterday. in the battle of current vs. past Pred goalies, Tomas Vokoun (Czech Republic) beat Pekka Rinne (Finland) 2-1 in a shootout. Pekka stopped 33 of 35 (including the shootout) while Vokoun stopped 29 of 30.
Germany continued their "Miracle" run with a 1-0 win over Switzerland to advance to the simi-finals for the first time since the current system was introduced in 1080.
Russia embarrassed Canada with a 5-2 win that deteriorated into a few frustrating events from Canadian players that were nothing that they could be proud of.
Sweden beat Denmark 4-2 in the other game leading up to the simi-finals.
The Calgary Hitmen will meet the host Brandon Wheat Kings tonight at 7:00 CDT on the NHL Network to determine who will play Windsor on Sunday night for the championship. Calgary beat Brandon 5-1 on Tuesday in the final round-robin game in a chippy game that should insure a good contest tonight.
Sunday's Championship game will be at 6:00 on the NHL Network.
Nashville Flood Relief NHL Tweet Up...
Mark at The View From 111 is starting to get some of the items listed at the eBay Giving Works site that has been set up for auctioning the items from around the league in conjunction with the Nashville Flood Relief NHL Tweet Up. Go here to check it out. Bid high, and bid often.
Mark also has news that the Blue Jackets Foundation is stepping up to help out with a generous contribution to the cause.
This guy has the first negative article I have seen about Nashville's Flood Relief efforts.
In Pred Nation...
The Cincinnati Cyclones are one win away from winning the Kelly Cup after a 3-2 comeback win over the Idaho Steelheads last night at U S Bank Arena, They return to the ice tonight at 6:30 CDT for game 5 with the Cyclones last chance to wrap it up at home. It is also been declared Cincinnati Cyclones day in the city so it would be great timing to end the season.
If the 2009-10 Predators were in a movie, who would play the coaching staff. Jim Diamond has the answers.
Paul McCann is really irritated with the hippocracy of the IIHF in their recent blasting of athletes for not playing in the World Championships as well as a few other topics that don sit well.
Curt Smith has glowing praise for the Pred's voice, Pete Weber.
Mark Willoughby still has time for his weekly View in the middle of the Tweet Up planning.
Dan Ellis is skating out for his summer rec league team and checks in. @dellis39: A little rusty 1 goal 3 assists in a 9-8 win over the yellow team. Great way to start the season!
Around the NHL...
The Flyers seem to think that Michael Leighton is their man of the future. He has certainly cut in to the chance that Dan Ellis would join the Flyers in the off season.
Before last night's game, Matt Reitz takes a look at what changed with the Habs in the Conference Finals.
Not only is Pat Hickey a good writer, he was almost a good investigator too as he thought that he had found the guy that vandalized his car and stole his license plate on Facebook. The liscense plate showed up on this guy's Facebook page but has since been taken down. They are closer to finding the perpetrator since the Facebook guy does know who took it.
Brian Burk called the IIHF writer who criticized players not playing "ignorant". He also suggested not having the world championship in Olympic years. That makes a lot of sense.
The Panthers are getting creative on the fact that they are having trouble selling seats. Our friend Vickey Godwin had a good rebuttal to the moves on Facebook, "I think this is one (or two depending on how you look at it) of the most awful ideas the Panthers management has ever come up with! Why would you 1. put those nasty, ugly, insulting covers over seats to only bring worse attention to the Panthers and their inability to sell out, when on TV for viewers to see, and 2.There is no price scale depending ... See Moreon interest in the game... it's an excuse and guise for the management to raise prices and find a reason to excuse behavior - threatening to raise prices to games that people already aren't attenting as frequently as they should is probably not the best strategy - but that's just my opinion... good luck!"
Michelle Kenneth has a few favorite moments from the past season.

Restoring historic weavers houses in Central Poland
Four unique, wooden weavers’ houses in the Polish town of Zgierz are being renovated and restored for future generations thanks to €1.4 million in support from the EEA Grants.
The weavers’ houses are tiled wooden houses that were built by weavers in the 1820s, a time when the town Zgierz was at the heart of Poland’s wool textile industry. “The weavers’ houses represent some of the most interesting urban wood constructions in Europe”, says project manager Arkadiusz Boguslawski.
The houses have, however, deteriorated over the years, and were in a very bad technical condition in 2008, the year the town decided that something needed to be done. With support from the EEA Grants, Boguslawski and the Town of Zgierz are now in the process of renovating and refurbishing the four wooden weavers’ houses.
Houses relocated to the “Town of Weavers”
The renovated buildings will become part of the “Town of Weavers” cultural park, an area in Zgierz where 23 well-preserved weavers’ houses are to be relocated. The buildings will be moved there from different parts of the town, and for this reason the EEA Grants supported project also involves the physical relocation of three of the weavers’ houses. In addition, the project also includes tree planting and landscaping of the surrounding streets to give visitors the feeling of being taken back in time to the early 19th century.
The renovated weavers’ houses will accommodate the administrative offices of the “Town of the Weavers”, a tourist information, a Wood Maintenance Centre, a hostel for students and scientists, an art gallery and conference rooms. The Wood Maintenance Centre will become the first one of its kind in Poland. In addition to conducting research on wooden architecture, this centre will focus on promoting efficient methods of protecting wooden historic buildings, and on awareness-raising regarding the role of wooden building engineering in Poland.
As parts of the “Town of Weavers”, the renovated buildings are expected to contribute in making the town and the surrounding region more attractive to tourist, which again will stimulate the town of Zgierz both economically and culturally. The project is planned to end in April 2011.

Concerned US defence workers were told to keep quiet about the alleged abuse of Iraqi prisoners, memos obtained by a US civil rights group have revealed.
Allegations of abuse at Abu Ghraib have rocked the US military
Documents released by the American Civil Liberties Union also show that special forces officers ignored FBI fears over their interrogation methods.
FBI and Defence Intelligence Agency concerns were ignored or brushed aside by special forces, says the ACLU.
The ACLU obtained the documents under the US Freedom of Information Act.
A Pentagon spokesman said the US has a policy of "full disclosure" on allegations of abuse and the government "condemns and prohibits torture".
According to the memos, detainees held in Iraq often arrived at prisons, including Baghdad's Abu Ghraib jail, which was at the centre of allegations of systematic prisoner abuse, bearing "burn marks" on their backs.
The documents also shed light on a tense relationship between the US military hierarchy in Iraq and intelligence agents posted to the region.
Several documents detail specific concerns about the conduct of military personnel in Iraq.
One memo, from Vice Admiral Lowell E Jacoby, head of the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA), describes how staff who complained about abuse were threatened, had their car keys confiscated and e-mails monitored, as well as being ordered not to leave the base or speak to friends or relatives in the US.
Another details an incident in which a prisoner was punched in the face by military personnel "to the point he needed medical attention".
Task force staff did not record the medical treatment and confiscated DIA photographs of the injuries, the memo says.
Both documents were dated 25 June 2004.
The ACLU disclosures follow reports that a senior FBI official complained in 2002 about "highly aggressive" interrogation techniques at the US camp at Guantanamo Bay.
"These documents tell a damning story of sanctioned government abuse - a story the government has tried to hide and may well come back to haunt our own troops captured in Iraq," Anthony Romero, executive director of the ACLU.
The Pentagon has said that at least eight major reviews and dozens of congressional hearings and briefings on the abuse issue have already been completed.
Seven US military police and an intelligence officer have been charged in connection with the abuse. One reservist has been jailed for his role.
The US military's interrogation policies have become a controversial issue in Iraq, Afghanistan and at the US internment centre at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
A number of documents released by the ACLU refer to Maj Gen Geoffrey D Miller, who was posted to Iraq to make recommendations on interrogation techniques.
Previously he served as head of Camp X-Ray, the Guantanamo prison, from October 2002.
Maj Gen Geoffrey D Miller was sent to Iraq from Guantanamo Bay
He was posted to Abu Ghraib in March 2004, shortly before accusations of the prisoner abuse, which was committed from October to December 2003, emerged.
According to an FBI email released by the ACLU, Maj Gen Miller "continued to support interrogation techniques [the FBI] not only advised against, but questioned in terms of effectiveness".
An e-mail to Thomas Harrington, an FBA counter-terrorism expert, details "somewhat heated" conversations with Pentagon staff, in which officials admitted that the FBI's less physical interrogation style had yielded similar results.
In another e-mail, dated December 2003, the FBI notes a "longstanding" opposition to some Pentagon interrogation techniques.
The sender requested that certain information "be documented to protect the FBI".

Pauline Cafferkey, the Scottish nurse who contracted Ebola while working in Africa late last year, is now "critically ill" due to an unusual late complication related to her previous infection.
In statement on Wednesday afternoon, the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead, London, said it was "sad to announce" that her condition had deteriorated.
She was transferred from the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow to the Royal Free Hospital in the early hours of Friday 9 October due to what to what was described as "an unusual late complication of her previous infection by the Ebola virus".
She is still being treated in isolation at the Royal Free's specialist isolation unit under nationally agreed guidelines.
The hospital pointed out last week that "the Ebola virus can only be transmitted by direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of an infected person while they are symptomatic so the risk to the general public remains low and the NHS has well established and practised infection control procedures in place".
Cafferkey, 39, from South Lanarkshire, spent a month at the Royal Free in January, after contracting Ebola while volunteering at a Save the Children centre in Sierra Leone, but was released after making a full recovery.
Two other Britons – nurse William Pooley and a military medic – have contracted Ebola in the last year 14 months.
More than 12,000 people in Sierra Leone contracted the deadly virus during the outbreak lasting from March 2014 into 2015, almost 4,000 of whom died.
In total, there were over 26,000 cases and more than 11,000 deaths, mostly in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.

When you call the office, ask questions. Do you require a dentist who deals with kids and teens in addition to grownups? Make sure you ask, because there are some family dentists who prefer not to deal with really young kids; they may only accept school age children and older as clients, and refer more youthful kids to a pediatric dentist.
Do your kids need braces as well as routine care? Some family dental workplaces use braces along with cleanings, fillings, and other routine services. This can be a good time saver for a busy family.
There are some dentists who welcome patients with phobias and fears and offer special services such as sedation dentistry, movie or music to distract patients, nitrous oxide and other services to help them feel relaxed. A good dentist wants you to feel comfortable during your visit, and his office personnel need to invite your concerns.
2. Exactly what's the workplace like?
When you call the workplace, is the receptionist impolite and rushed or pleasant and useful? Is he patient when answering questions or curt? Can she or he address all your concerns relating to consultation times, services, insurance coverage and payments?
You can tell a lot about an office by the person staffing the front desk. That person plays a crucial function in any expert setting, however most of all in a medical or dental office. If the front office person is condescending or rude, you might be too frightened to request what you need-- not a good situation if you have a dental emergency situation.
Some family dentists use a complimentary preliminary visit, and such an appointment can assist you examine the workplace. Does the dentist use the latest devices? A cutting-edge office means a dentist who appreciates finding out and utilizing the most recent techniques, tools and devices for his clients' comfort and convenience.
Is the workplace conveniently located? You're going to be most likely to keep consultations if the office is convenient to your school, home or office.
3. How does the dentist's office fit your family's requirements?
Each family is different. You may have really children at home, or maybe children plus an aging moms and dad dealing with you. It may be handy to produce a checklist of your requirements such as:
Pediatric dentistry - for my baby and young child
Orthodontics for my young teenager
General dental care for myself, my partner
Dentures and a handicapped available office for my mama who deals with us
Another point you may want to inspect is the schedule of several appointments throughout one time slot. An office with numerous dentists may have the ability to accommodate a request for all your family's visits throughout on time slot. That can be a terrific convenience.
Discovering a Great Family Dentist

Washington fixer Joe DeMarco has been asked to handle a lot of difficult situations over the years for his boss, Congressman John Mahoney. But nothing has ever been quite so politically sensitive, or has hit so close to home, as the task Mahoney hands DeMarco in House Odds, the latest novel from critically acclaimed thriller writer Mike Lawson. Mahoney's daughter, Molly, has been arrested and charged with insider trading. An engineer with a high-flying technology firm, she allegedly placed a half-million-dollar bet on one of the firm's clients. DeMarco's job is to clear Molly's name and keep his boss clean. But how did Molly get her hands on so much money to invest in the first place? Before long, DeMarco discovers that there's far more to Molly's case than meets the eye, and the risk to Mahoney is more than just a little political embarrassment. Featuring an extensive cast of mobsters and politicians, House Odds is a gripping tale of high-stakes scheming from one of today's best political thriller writers.

Lamborghini is set to launch the Huracan Spyder EVO Spyder in India on October 10. The Huracan EVO, for the unknown, was tailored to suit the ones who wanted a bit more from the Huracan. The Huracan EVO is the Italian manufacturer’s next-generation V10 super sports car, based on the Huracán Performante. The Huracán Evo features the 5.2 l naturally-aspirated Lamborghini V10 engine, uprated to produce higher power output, with Titanium intake valves and refined lightweight exhaust system. The Huracán Evo outputs 640 hp (470 kW) at 8,000 rpm with 600 Nm of torque delivered at 6,500 rpm.
Now, for the first time in India, the company is set to launch its drop-top version of the car in India. Almost everything in the Spyder version of the hard-top version of the track maniac is carried over to the Spyder, except for the roof (of course). The roof on the Spyder retracts down in 17 seconds and makes up for one of the most gorgeous looking Lambo out there.
Like the Huracan EVO, the Spyder version of it also features the new Lamborghini rear-wheel steering and a torque vectoring system working on the four wheels, while at the heart of the car is the new feature of Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata (LDVI): a Central Processing Unit that controls every aspect of the car’s dynamic behaviour.
A new 8.4-inch HMI capacitive touchscreen, located in the centre console just above the start button, allows better connectivity than before, with multi-finger gesture control. Governing car functions including seats, climate and the status of the LDVI system in real-time it also puts all infotainment, such as Apple CarPlay with smartphone integration, at the cabin occupants’ disposal. A multimedia system incorporates connected navigation and entertainment including web radio and video player.
The intuitive interface allows voice commands and puts the driver in touch with Siri. An optional dual-camera telemetry system is also offered via the touchscreen, allowing advanced telemetry recording and analysis. An integrated high-capacity hard disk is also available.

Optimal CO2 Abatement in thePresence of Induced TechnologicalChange
Lawrence H. Goulder and Koshy Mathai
Over the past decade considerable efforts have been directed toward evaluating alternative policies to reduce the atmospheric accumulation of greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2). Initial assessments tended to disregard interconnections between technological change and CO2-abatement policies, treating the rate of technological progress as autonomous—that is, unrelated to policy changes or associated changes in relative prices. Recently, however, several researchers have emphasized that CO2 policies and the rate of technological change are connected: to the extent that public policies affect the ...

Ray J seeks counselling after Whitney Houston's deathMar 17, 6:16 pm
Washington, Mar 17 (ANI): Ray J has agreed to undergo counselling to deal with the shock of his on-off girlfriend Whitney Houston's sudden death last month.She died February 11 at the Beverly Hilton at age 48 after she was found unresponsive by in the bathroom of her hotel room."Ray J is obviously absolutely devastated by the loss of Whitney, who he says was the love of his life," RadarOnline.com quoted a source as saying.His sister Brandy had urged him to seek help in order to deal with his loss, and he has finally agreed."Ray is just numb and he needs to be able to start to deal with these feelings. Brandy and her brother are extremely close, and she has been a rock for him in the weeks since Whitney died," the source said."However, Brandy is also dealing with a huge loss, as she worked with Whitney professionally, and loved her like an older sister. "Brandy recognizes that she can only help her brother so much. Ray has promised Brandy he will see someone, however, knowing how take charge Brandy is, she will probably find a mental health professional and make the arrangements for him," the insider added. Ray J was also present at Houston's funeral where he had lovingly reached out to touch the pop star's coffin. "Ray has told his family he doesn't know if he will ever be able to listen to Houston's version of 'I Will Always Love You ever again'," it said."He is surrounded by his family and just trying to get through the pain. What people don't realize is how much Ray loves Whitney, he never refers to her in the past tense. He just doesn't know what to do with the huge void in his life," the source added. (ANI)

After a leisurely breakfast, you will have wonderful excursions to do during your day:
Lake Garda offers wonderful beaches mainly in stones.
Each beach is often equipped with every kind of comfort, from sunbeds and umbrellas to pedal boat rental.
Among the most beautiful to visit are the Baia delle Sirene beach in Punta San Vigilio, the Jamaica beach and Lido delle Bionde in Sirmione, the Pisenze beach.
A few kilometers from our house there are some truly enchanting places to visit, both directly on the lake and in the surrounding cities.
In the innermost part there are places that are worth a visit, such as medieval villages, castles, cities of art, nature reserves, parks, shopping malls.
Some places boast important merits, such as Borghetto in Valeggio sul Minico (Unesco Heritage) considered among the most beautiful villages in Italy ...
Here are some suggested itineraries:
Trip to the Sigurtà Park in Valeggio sul Mincio
Borghetto sul Mincio: a romantic trip

The walk through the vineyards of Bardolino and its surroundings, inaugurated in March 2020, is a new cycle-pedestrian path about 100 km long, all immersed in the green hills of Bardolino and its surroundings.
The new path of Bardolino, home of Bardolino Doc wine, among the vineyards and hills of Garda, leads to know the land of the homonymous wine and the wine cellars of the area.
The new Bardolino promenade and all its eighteen routes to do, of different lengths from a minimum of three kilometers up to a maximum of twenty kilometers, are indicated by information panels, downloadable from the mobile phone with a QR Code, which indicate the points of greatest interest and other useful information to create your own tailor-made itinerary.
This new pedestrian cycle path crosses six municipalities: Bardolino, Costermano, Garda, Rivoli Veronese, Affi and Cavaion Veronese.
Ideal not only for lovers of nature and walking or cycling, but also for lovers of good wine, the walk offers the opportunity to visit some wineries to taste wine and local food and wine products.

SHANGHAI, Sep 9 (SMM) — This is a roundup of global macroeconomic news last night and what is expected today.
The safe-haven dollar climbed to a four-week peak on Tuesday, led by gains versus sterling on renewed worries about Brexit and as risk appetite waned with a sell-off on Wall Street.
On Wall Street, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite underperformed once again on Tuesday — falling more than 4% — after suffering its worst week since March. The Nasdaq has lost more than 10% in the past three sessions, officially entering correction territory. The index is still more than 63% from its 52-week low in March.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average cratered more than 600 points, weighed on by a near-6% drop in Boeing. The S&P dipped 2.7%, for its third straight negative day for the first time since June 11.
Oil prices tumbled to their lowest level since June on Tuesday amid growing demand concerns as Covid-19 continues to spread.
West Texas Intermediate crude, the US oil benchmark, slipped $3.01, or 7.6%, to settle at $36.76 per barrel. During the session WTI traded as low as $36.13, a price not seen since June 15. International benchmark Brent crude dipped more than 5.3% to settle at $39.78, also its lowest level since June.
Tuesday’s move lower followed Saudi Aramco cutting its official selling prices for October, which RBC’s Helima Croft said triggered new demand concerns.
Rising US-China trade tensions, as well as production coming back online also pressured prices on Tuesday, as did a stronger US dollar.
Gold prices rebounded from a near two-week low hit earlier on Tuesday, after a sell-off in stock markets prompted investors to seek refuge in the safe haven metal.
Revised data published Tuesday showed that second-quarter euro zone GDP (gross domestic product) contracted by 14.7% year-on-year and 11% from the previous quarter, less than initial estimates but still its sharpest decline on record.
Tensions between Washington and Beijing remain on the radar after US President Donald Trump on Monday again raised the idea of an economic “decoupling” from China.
The UK is planning to ramp up its preparations to leave the European Union without a deal if no free trade accord can be reached this week. The Financial Times reported that Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government intends to legislate to override aspects of the Withdrawal Agreement it signed in January, with the EU warning Monday that there will be no deal if this course of action is pursued.
Shanghai base metals finished in negative territory in overnight trading. Zinc declined 2.54% to lead the losses, copper weakened 1.03%, aluminium edged down 0.28%, lead fell 1.51%, nickel slid 1.72% and tin shed 1.62%.
Their counterparts on the LME performed similarly. Zinc plunged 3.45%, lead fell 2.89%, copper declined 1.21%, aluminium shed 0.14%, nickel weakened 1.78% and tin slid 1.15%.
The US Labor Department’s Job Openings Labor Turnover Survey for July and Chinese inflation data for August including consumer price index and producer price index are set to be out today.
Investors are now awaiting an ECB policy meeting due on Thursday, while the US Federal Reserve’s next meeting is scheduled for next week.

As Spain's second-largest city after Madrid, Barcelona teems with no shortage of things to see and do. Getting from one place to the other in a city this size can seem challenging to first-time visitors. Throw in the unfamiliar Catalan place names, and things are seemingly complicated even further.
But although it seems complicated at first, Barcelona's public transportation system is a cheap, easy and efficient way to get around town. It's a much better option than renting a car, and although the city is quite walkable, sometimes catching the metro or a bus can save you valuable time.
How to Ride the Barcelona Metro
Here in Barcelona, the most popular way to get around town is via metro.
Operated by TMB (Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona), locals tend to prefer the metro for its easy-to-use system, low fares, and frequency of trains.
Metro stations are usually indicated by red and white signs bearing an M. Once inside the station, purchase a ticket from the electronic machines (instructions are available in Catalan, Spanish, English and French), and use it to pass through the turnstiles.
Barcelona Metro Fast Facts:
- Cost: €2.40 for a single ticket. €11.35 for a 10-journey pass, known as a T-Casual card (allows rides on all public transportation in Barcelona)
- How to pay: Cash or card at the ticketing machines
- Hours of operation: Monday–Sunday 5 a.m.–midnight
- Transfer information: At the transfer station, follow the signs indicating where to board the train for your final destination. Once you arrive, exit the station as normal.
- Accessibility: As of October 2020, only 14 of Barcelona's 159 metro stations have not yet been adapted for users of reduced mobility. Steps are being taken to make all stations accessible as soon as possible.
Start planning your journey using the Barcelona metro system's online route planner.
Riding the TMB Bus
Buses in Barcelona are another easy way of getting around town, with the added bonus of getting to see the city pass by as you ride. TMB, the same company that runs the Metro, also operates the bus system.
Bus stops in Barcelona are either shelters or poles displaying the numbers of the bus lines that stop there. As your bus approaches, wave to the driver to indicate that you'd like to board.
Once on the bus, be sure to validate your travel pass (such as the T-Casual card) if you have one; if not, you can buy a ticket from the driver for €2.20. The largest bill accepted is 10 euros.
When your stop is approaching, press the red button to signal the driver. Exit the bus through the rear doors.
Check the TMB website for full information about how to take the bus, including operating hours.
The Rodalies Commuter Rail
Rodalies is the suburban train network throughout Catalonia. Its stations are identified by a white R against an orange background. This is an especially great transport option for taking day trips from Barcelona.
Information about the trains, including schedules and routes, is available on the Rodalies website.
Barcelona's Tram System
The tram network in Barcelona is not very extensive at this point, but it's a great way to explore beyond the city center. There are six tram lines and nearly 30 kilometers of track. Visit the Barcelona tram website to learn more.
Getting To and From El Prat Airport
- Metro: The L9 Sud line stops at both terminals. Tickets cost €4.60.
- Aerobús: Connects both terminals with Plaça Catalunya. Tickets cost €5.90.
- Train: The L2 train currently only stops at Terminal 2, though plans are in place to add a stop at Terminal 1 as well. It's accessible in Barcelona proper at the Passeig de Gràcia, Sants, and França stations. Pricing information can be found on the Rodalies website.
Taxis in Barcelona
Official Barcelona taxis are painted black with yellow doors. They can be found at taxi ranks all over town, or you can call one at +34 933 033 033.
Renting a Car
While renting a vehicle can be a great way to explore further-afield parts of Catalonia, it's not really an ideal way to get around Barcelona. The sheer number of people and vehicles in the city can make it difficult to get around, other drivers seemingly treat traffic laws as mere guidelines, and finding a decent, centrally located parking spot (that's not in an expensive garage) is next to impossible. Our advice: save yourself the money and frustration.
Bike Sharing in Barcelona
Bicing, Barcelona's bike-sharing program, has become a popular method of public transportation in the Catalan capital.
With more than 6,000 mechanical bikes and 800 electric bikes available to rent, it's a quick and efficient way to get around town. It's also easily integrated with other modes of public transportation in Barcelona, with docking stations conveniently located near metro stations and bus stops.
Tips for Getting Around Barcelona
- Barcelona is a generally safe city, but petty crime such as pickpocketing is common on public transportation. Watch your belongings and be aware of your surroundings at all times, especially on crowded metros and buses.
- Always keep small bills and coins on you in order to pay for public transportation. Oftentimes drivers won't be able to give change for large bills, and ticketing machines won't accept them, either.
- Walking can be an extremely rewarding and enjoyable way to see the city. Barcelona is incredibly pedestrian-friendly, and most of its major sights are concentrated into one area that's easy to navigate on foot.
- As in any major city, public transportation in Barcelona can get very crowded during both the morning and evening rush hours. Plan accordingly or consider an alternative method if you're on a tight schedule.
- If you're visiting in the summer, you'll likely want to check out one of the famous Barcelona beaches. But don't limit yourself to crowded Barceloneta just because it's close to the city center. Instead, hop on public transportation and head further afield—you'll likely have a much more pleasant experience, and find yourself surrounded by locals rather than tourists.
