Upcycling of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added products represents a substantially untapped opportunity to tackle environmental issues and achieve a circular economy. Compared with easily available C1/C2 products, nevertheless, efficient and sustainable synthesis of energy-rich long-chain compounds from CO2 still remains a grand challenge. Here we describe a hybrid electro-biosystem, coupling spatially separate CO2 electrolysis with yeast fermentation, that efficiently converts CO2 to glucose with a high yield. We employ a nanostructured copper catalyst that can stably catalyse pure acetic acid production with a solid-electrolyte reactor. We then genetically engineer Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce glucose in vitro from electro-generated acetic acid by deleting all defined hexokinase genes and overexpression of heterologous glucose-1-phosphatase. In addition, we showcase that the proposed platform can be easily extended to produce other products like fatty acids using CO2 as the carbon source. These results illuminate the tantalizing possibility of a renewable-electricity-driven manufacturing industry.

Whether they’re looking out over the African savannah or on the prowl in the Pantanal, all around the world majestic big cats dominate the wilderness. Here are a few of the fiercest felines to spot in the wild…
Often referred to as the king of the jungle, lions are the African savannah’s top predator. They live in prides and fiercely defend their territory. Their remarkable manes, earth trembling roars and expert hunting techniques firmly cement them as one of the world’s most iconic big cats. Despite their ferocious character, they are also the laziest of all the big cats and spend an average of 18 hours per day sleeping.
Our favourite place to spot them: Kenya’s Masai Mara has one of the highest densities of lions in the world, and thanks to its vast open plains, sightings here are particularly impressive.
Distinguishable by their magnificent black-spotted coats, leopards have excellent camouflage and are famed for their extreme stealth and versatility, making them excellent hunters. They spend a lot of their time hiding in the treetops, using their elevated vantage point to ambush prey from above. The leopard can stalk its victim to within metres, before giving chase using its powerful back legs and reaching speeds of up to 60km per hour.
Our favourite place to spot them: Without a doubt the best place to spot leopards in the wild is Yala National Park in Sri Lanka, which boasts the highest density of these elusive creatures anywhere on the planet.
The tiger is the largest of the big cats and is recognisable by its distinctive striped fur; their stripes are like fingerprints, no two tigers have identical markings. They are especially powerful hunters and creep up on their prey with great stealth, often waiting and allowing the unwitting animal to move closer of its own accord. Once in striking distance, the tiger pounces on its victim with one fatal manoeuvre, leaving its prey no chance of escape.
Our favourite place to spot them: The Bengal tiger is the most dominant subspecies and is native to India. Our favourite place to spot them is in Bandhavgarh National Park.
The jaguar is native to South America and is the largest big cat on the continent. Their stealthy nature and unrivalled power confirms them as one of the jungle’s top predators. They tend to lurk in sheltered areas amongst thick foliage, but they are good swimmers too so are able to hunt their prey both on land and in water. Like leopards, jaguars’ fur can range from golden to almost black and is covered in dark rosettes, but jaguars can be distinguished by the smaller spots inside their rosettes.
Our favourite place to spot them: We think the best place to see jaguars is in the Pantanal in Brazil, where the flat swampy wetland makes it easier to spot them than in the thick Amazon rainforest.

We already had that discussion months ago. Tolkki would've big legal issues.Bathory Killcraft wrote:Dreamspace is a classic album. Often overlooked by fans but up there with Episode and Visions in terms of quality. I love the production, cold atmosphere and the music and lyric themes are dark and awesome.
Lassila's playing is powerful, top notch, vocals and guitars are great and the songwriting is inspired like nothing else at the time.
The title track is amazing, I have certainly identified to its lyrics too in the past
I won't comment on this Return to Dreamspace project, I kinda don't care about it but the original is a masterpiece.
Btw, Why don't they call it Stradivarius? No legal issues and readily identifiable. Not that I care lol.
Talk about everything else besides Stratovarius here in English. Please try to put more serious topics here, and silly topics in the Spam section.
I've been listening to Dreamspace a lot lately and I can't wait to hear it's sequel. Tolkki has such a powerful voice and the songs on the album bring out so many emotions. It's like it has a life of its own

A series looking at some of my favourite book covers and cover artists, mostly taken from my own collection.
#3 Bantam Books’ Star Trek adaptions of the late ’60 and early ’70s
In 1967 New York publisher Bantam Books, in an attempt to cash-in on the popularity of the TV series Star Trek, commissioned science fiction author James Blish to adapt the scripts for the show’s individual episodes into short prose stories that could then be compiled into paperback collections. Those collections went on to sell very well with several of the editions being reprinted over a dozen times. Continue reading Paperback covers #3: Bantam Books’ Star Trek adaptions

My wife and I stayed 3 nights here and would return. We loved the place. Our room was large and bed very comfortable. The restaurant was great...including breakfasts. The location is stunning. The pool very clean with beautiful views of the valley. The hotel seemed empty which was nice because it allowed for quiet nights and no crowd at the pool.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Prosecutors and defense lawyers in the Colorado theater shooting case say they're ready for a crucial hearing next week.
Lawyers for both sides told a judge Wednesday that they're prepared to proceed with a preliminary hearing starting Monday in which prosecutors will outline their case against James Holmes.
At its conclusion, State District Judge William B. Sylvester will decide if the evidence is sufficient to put Holmes on trial.
Holmes is charged with killing 12 people and wounding 70 on July 20 in a movie theater in the Denver suburb of Aurora. Prosecutors say he opened fire during a midnight showing of the Batman movie "The Dark Night Rises."

The Blue Mountains
The last full day I was here Clair and I drove out to the country and up into the Blue Mountains. There were a lot of tourists around, but it was a lot of fun hiking around and seeing the area. It was really hot and sunny that day. We lathered ourselves up with sunscreen, but still we got pretty burned. I forget that Australia has a huge hole in the ozone above it. But we hiked around and had a great workout.
The Blue Mountains in the distance ... ... Cliff face and the mountains
Blue Mountains ... ... The Three Sisters Towers.

Although I believed the Intel Core i3 and i7 processors inside the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 tablet will be from the next generation Intel Broadwell chip family, it turned out that they’ll be actually the current Haswell chips. Namely the Intel Core i7-4650U and i3-4020Y. They will accompany the i5-4300U as the already known option.
Microsoft Targets Laptop Users with Surface Pro 3 Tablet
Microsoft unveiled today the Surface Pro 3 Windows-based tablet. With its keyboard accessory, kickstand on the back, and a larger 12″ display than the 10.6″ on the Pro 2, the new device targets the traditional laptop users. At the same time, you’re getting a quite portable tablet despite the bigger screen. It only 0.36″ inches thin and weighs 1.76 pounds.
Microsoft Surface Power Cover Keyboard Pre-Orders Start; Priced at $200
Microsoft has made available for pre-orders the battery-equipped Surface Power Cover keyboard, which “extends the battery life of your Surface up to 70% and doubles as a screen cover.” The Power Keyboard which is compatible with Surface 2, Surface Pro, and Surface Pro 2 tablets is priced at $199.99 and is expected to start shipping on March 19th.
Microsoft Surface 2 with 4G LTE Coming Soon
UPDATE: The 4G Surface 2 is now available.
Microsoft’s Surface 2 tablet will be soon available with built-in 4G LTE connectivity alongside Wi-Fi wireless, according to the latest leaked info. A couple of images published by Windows Phone Central reveal package of the Nvidia Tegra processor- and Windows RT-based Surface 2 model with AT&T’s 4G mobile broadband.
Microsoft Surface Pro 2 Gets Faster, Business-Friendly Intel Core i5-4300U CPU
Microsoft has updated the recently released Surface Pro 2 tablet. This time it isn’t a software update, but an important hardware bump. The 4th Generation Intel Core i5-4200U processor is replaced by the i5-4300U with a higher clock speed and some added business-class features.
Nokia Lumia 2520: Serious Microsoft Surface 2 Alternative (Comparison)
The Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet with Windows RT 8.1 operating system, a 10.1-inch display, quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, 4G LTE connectivity, and 32GB of internal storage is going on sale today (Nov 22nd) in the US. Offered via AT&T and Verizon cellural carriers, it’s $499 off contract or $399 with 2-year data plan agreements. AT&T customers also have a choice to get it for $199 if they purchase it bundled with Lumia 925, Lumia 1020, or Lumia 1520 Windows phones. With the given specifications and pricing, the same slate form factor with optional keyboard covers, and RT version of Windows, it’s obvious that the Nokia Lumia 2520 is a direct competitor of the Microsoft’s own Surface 2, priced at $499 for the 32GB version. However, if you take a look at the specs sheets more closely, you’ll find out many differences between them.
Microsoft Surface 2 vs Surface Pro 2 – Specs Comparison
Microsoft has unveiled recently the Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2, new versions of the company’s 10.6-inch Windows tablets which now come with faster processors, updated OS, refined design, and a whole new line of accessories.
The Windows 8.1 RT-based Surface 2 with the Nvidia Tegra 4 computing platform and full Win 8.1-based Surface Pro 2 with the 4th Generation Intel Haswell i5 CPU are now more lap-friendly, because they have two positions of their kickstands. Besides the old 22-degree angle, there’s also a 55-degree position of the kickstand, which is more suitable for use on your lap. An important update on the Surface 2 versus the original Surface RT is the screen resolution bump from 1366×768 to 1920×1080 pixels, so both new devices are Full HD.

I’ve been really lucky in terms of thrifting pretty print fabrics lately, especially small tablemats and pillow covers. Some of them still have lace on them so I finally took out the seam ripper and made them into actual “just” pieces of fabric.Wednesday morning Scoundrel came to me and asked if I could make a last-minute ban cloth for a LARP character with a dangerous artifact. Of course I could with a little help from my scrap heap and some white acrylic paint, and for once there is an action shot, too!Speaking of LARP I’m colouring my countdown as I go and cross off the days left to conquest. I know that some others have printed it as well and are already done colouring, that makes me so happy!
Have a wonderful weekend! ♥
After my hiatus quite a lot of thrifted treasure have piled up here in the nest so I thought it would be fun to catch up with them before I (hopefully) how you my June loot in time!
Pleas tell me what find you liked best in the comments and if you’ve had any thrifting luck yourself during the last two months! ♥
When my father visited we went for a stroll though the city. When we passed an impressively large old building we went to investigate what it was and found it to be the Lower Saxony State Museum.Going to museums has always been “our” thing. When I was younger and visited him every fortnight we went to a museum every Sunday morning. And continuing this tradition we decided to go in.I’m splitting the picture for this museum into several parts (as I did before when I wrote about the Hessian State Museum in Darmstadt), Nature, man-made things and fine art, as this is one of those museums you’ll spend half a day in and still haven’t seen everything up close.We started with the depths of the sea, flooded with bluish lighting. Not only do they display skulls of sea mammals and fish there, no, they also have a vivarium that makes you feel like you’re in something part zoo, part museum. I don’t think I’ll have to mention that this is a great hit with the younger visitors (and me as well).I found myself taken with the beautiful aquariums even a bit more for the lush green flora and miniature landscapes (or rather, underwaterscapes) than for their scaly inhabitants.Right next to the piranha aquarium was a skull of one of their ancestors in a ghostly light, reminding us that those pouty lips hide absurdly sharp teeth and the pleasant chill down a childs spine when they wade into a lake thinking of those monsters (in central Europe where there are no piranhas, but did I care when I was eight? No, I did not).I really liked this display. It felt a bot like a bottled-up holiday by the seaside.To give you a bit of the scale of this quartz rock, here’s the bigger picture. It was lit from the bottom, emanating a magical glow that made it strangely special in this huge collection of things in a now brightly lit showroom.
I also love the transition from the Under The Sea exhibition to (more or less because Lower Saxony has quite a bit of moorland) dry land.
The nature exhibition, located in the parterre of the building, ended with something that looked like a giant, glass-walled birdcage with all kinds of specimen captured and stuffed in flight or rest. I’m always so very fascinated by shimmering feathers.I wish they had quartz crystals in the souvenirs shop, I would surely have gotten one.
I’m really fond of the whole having-a-library-card-again thing. I go to the local branch about once a week at the moment and I always come home with more than I had actually planned.
Friends With Boys by Faith Erin Hicks was one of those books that came home with me even though my trusty Gryffindor tote was already heavy. Recalling her own experiences with the transition from homeschooling to public high-school the Canadian tells the story of Maggie McKay who grew up with three older brothers, a police officer dad and a home-schooling mum – until said mum left for unknown reasons. Now Maggs has to face high school all on her own while her brothers have been there for a while already, two really liking it, one despising it, with herself right in the middle (with a strong tendency to “despise”).I loved the realistic, tender portrayal of sibling relationships in the comic and I adored her brothers, especially the two guys involved with the drama club at school. There’s a short arc about a musical revolving about heroes and zombies which I’d love to see, too.
Speaking of the undead and fantasy elements there is also a ghost involved… and Lucy, your chipper neighborhood punk girl who’s just incredibly lovely (she also has a thing for old cemeteries because they hold so much history which made her even more precious to me).
I loved how the ending didn’t feel like one at all. You just know that the story goes on, somewhere, somehow. After this I definitely want to read Hicks’ other works and definitely recommend this comic to about everyone.

Alejandro Madrazo, “Narratives of Prenatal Personhood in Abortion Law,” chapter 15 in Abortion Law in Transnational Perspective: Cases and Controversies, ed. Rebecca J. Cook, Joanna N. Erdman, and Bernard M. Dickens (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2014) pp. 327-346, 446n-450n. Ahora disponible en español.
The question of prenatal personhood has long been present in abortion law, but recent legislative initiatives and judicial decisions suggest that it will increasingly become a key battleground in abortion law.
In this penultimate chapter of Abortion Law in Transnational Perspective, Alejandro Madrazo examines the significance of constitutional amendments and legal debates in Mexico and elsewhere about prenatal personhood for women’s exercise of their reproductive rights. His concerns lie not in the narrow legal issues of interpretation, but rather their role in shaping public debates over abortion. Leaving the fundamental question of prenatal personhood unattended can have catastrophic consequences for women’s rights in general, and their sexual and reproductive rights in particular, in part by facilitating resort to criminal rather than constitutional law as the modality of reasoning. Moreover, the protection of prenatal personhood is usually not taken self-critically by its proponents but is rather an argument for justifying restrictions on women’s sexual and reproductive rights and, more specifically, for trumping women’s right to choose. Claims of prenatal personhood claims enable oversimplified narratives centered on the act of abortion rather than on the circumstances of women that give rise to unwanted pregnancies. Accordingly, Madrazo asks, what are the consequences when prenatal life, in its different stages, is deemed a “person” for legal purposes? And what are the consequences when it is denied that status?
Abortion Law in Transnational Perspective: Cases and Controversies was first published in August 2014 by the University of Pennsylvania Press’s Studies in Human Rights Series. Table of Contents and other information online. Ahora disponible en español.

An “app store,” the first and eponymous one being introduced by Apple for the iPhone, makes discovering, installing, and updating applications easy for casual and advanced users. Microsoft has tried to emulate Apple with its own Windows Phone Store, but the desktop personal computer has been left out (game services such as Desura or Valve’s Steam, notwithstanding). A company called Sweetlabs is changing this with Pokki.
I interviewed Adrian Bourke, VP of Product and co-founder of Sweetlabs, about Pokki.
Who is responsible for Pokki?
A crazy startup in sunny San Diego who uniquely obsesses with making the PC experience better, SweetLabs. We were founded by six guys that came out of DivX in 2008 and now have roughly 60 employees working on our various product and business lines, including Pokki. While most of the other startups are exclusively focused on mobile, we feel the enormous PC ecosystem has been left in the stone ages and see problems we can help solve for the thousands of developers and more than a billion consumers on the PC.
What itch were you trying to scratch that led you to write Pokki?
We love the PC and the itch that flared up for us was witnessing recent mobile and web-driven innovations leave the PC in the dust, trying to catch up and stay relevant. All the while, billions of users sit in front of a PC all day long and will continue to for the foreseeable future. Two significant trends have emerged over the past decade that required the PC industry to react in order to maintain relevance (and survival, for that matter):
- Thanks to ever increasing connectivity (coverage and bandwidth), there was a shift from client-side only software and data architecture to client-server software and data architecture. The PC’s conduit here wasn’t the operating system — it was the web browser and the web developers that become web app developers.
- The emergence of mobile-centric computing devices (smartphones and tablets) into the mainstream computer ecosystem. The PC is no longer the only device a consumer owns — for many it’s now one of many.
Over the past decade the PC has lacked both operating system software and device hardware innovation, with neither recognizing and embracing these trends that ultimately influence user behavior on the PC. For example, the PC’s interface has largely been based on the desktop metaphor, where web apps are considered second class citizens and relegated to the browser — regardless of the massive amount of time people spend using them. Of course, the jury is still out on whether PC users embrace a touch metaphor (Windows 8 Modern UI formerly known as Metro) on point/click/type PCs. 3 years ago we knew we couldn’t do anything about the hardware or operating system (yet 😉 ), but we certainly could take a run at building the modern application system for the PC and growing a rich developer community. That is why we started building Pokki.
What problem does Pokki solve that other programs don’t solve or don’t solve satisfactorily?
It sounds audacious, and you may call us crazy, but we strive to solve all the core application problems users and developers have faced on Windows over the past decade.
For example, PC app access and discovery for users. Think about how easy and delightful it is to discover apps, download and install them, and access them with a single click on your smartphone. Then compare that to how users walk through a dozen steps to discover, download, install, and access a traditional desktop app. Pokki aims to the convenience of mobile apps to the desktop, in a way that feels natural and native to a PC user.
How did you attract the first batch of developers to submit programs for Pokki?
What was the most unexpected thing about developing Pokki?
What was the hardest technical problem in developing Pokki?
What was the hardest social problem in developing Pokki?
For a platform to be successful, it needs content to attract users, and it needs users in order to attract developers to build apps. Classic “chicken and egg” problem. Of course we can’t reveal all of our secrets 😉 but we think we’ve found some ways to solve this as evidenced by the millions of monthly active Pokki users but we certainly have a long ways to go.

'Occupation 101' presents a comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; and dispels many of its long-perceived myths and misconceptions. The film also details life under Israeli military rule, the United States' role, and sheds light on the major obstacles which stand in the way of a lasting and viable peace.
Unlike any other film ever produced on the conflict --- 'Occupation 101' explains the situation in a comprehensive manner and gives audiences a complete context in which to better understand the Israeli-Palestinian encounter. The film depicts the root causes of the conflict through Israeli, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, American, and Palestinian voices that are rarely ever heard through mainstream media outlets.
The film covers a wide range of topics -- which include -- the first wave of Jewish immigration from Europe of the 1880's, the 1920 tensions, the 1948 war, the 1967 war, the first Intifada of 1987, the Oslo Peace Process, Settlement expansion, the role of the United States Government, the second Intifada of 2000, and also covers the recent Gaza Disengagement of August 2005.

Tsai invites WHO head to Taiwan
President Tsai Ing-wen has invited World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus to visit Taiwan.
The invitation was extended after Tedros claimed that Taiwan has been behind a campaign of personal attacks against him.
The WHO head is claiming to have been the victim of “racially abusive attacks from Taiwan” and has also blamed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for being a part of the alleged abuse.
Tsai has responded to his claims with a post on her English-language Facebook page, in which she says “I strongly protest the accusations that Taiwan is instigating racist attacks in the international community. Taiwan has always opposed all forms of discrimination.”
Tsai went on to say that “for years, [Taiwan] has been excluded from international organizations and we know better than anyone else what it feels like to be discriminated against and isolated.”
The President then invited Tedros to visit Taiwan, where she said he could “experience for himself” the island's “commitment to international engagement and efforts to fight the coronavirus pandemic.”

Yes, Greek nationals require a visa to enter Egypt. Before visiting Egypt, all international visitors, including Greek nationals, must get a visa from the Egyptian government.
Greek individuals will need to enter some basic information about themselves, such as their name, residence, passport data, and travel itinerary, in order to apply for an e-visa. They must also attach a digital copy of their passport as well as a current passport-sized picture.
The e-visa will be emailed to the applicant by Egypt Immigration Services once the application has been filed and accepted. When going to Egypt, Greek citizens should print a copy of their e-visa and have it with them in case they are requested to show it at immigration.
It should be noted that the type of visa required may differ based on the purpose of the traveler's visit. For example, if a Greek national wishes to visit Egypt for tourism, they must apply for a tourist visa. They will need to apply for a business or work visa if they are going for business or work.

THE GRIPPING THRILLER FROM THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR
When Ex-Navy SEAL and CIA operative Maxwell Moore barely survives a prisoner exchange that goes explosively wrong off the coast of Pakistan, he realises that powerful, cunning forces have been marshalled against him.
Determined to dig out the truth, he uncovers a shocking conspiracy. The two greatest threats to U.S. security have forged an unholy alliance. For the Mexican drug cartel, it means money, power, and control of the drug trade. But for the Taliban, it is an opportunity to bring the fire of jihad to the heartland of the infidel.
Now Moore and his depleted team must infiltrate the drug cartel in the hunt for terrorists preparing to bring destruction to America's streets . . .
From the remote, war-scarred landscapes of the Middle East to the blood-soaked chaos of the U.S.-Mexico border, Tom Clancy delivers a heart-stopping thriller you won't forget.
PRAISE FOR TOM CLANCY
'Exhilarating. No other novelist is giving so full a picture of modern conflict' Sunday Times
'A brilliantly constructed thriller that packs a punch' Daily Mail
'A virtuoso display of page-turning talent' Sunday Express
'Heart-stopping action . . . entertaining and eminently topical' Washington Post
Narrator Steven Weber turns in an enthralling performance in this audio version of Clancy's latest novel of international conspiracies, violence, and red-blooded American daring-do. Max Moore is a former Navy Seal who uncovers a bizarre link between the deadly terrorists of the Middle East and the ruthless drug cartels of Mexico. Looking to thwart potential attacks against the United States, Max puts together a crack team of operatives to defeat the two organizations and save the day. Weber immerses himself in the authors' intricate world, perfectly capturing the novel's tone and pacing. Additionally, Weber's characterizations are spot on. His rendition of dialogue sounds natural, and he deftly handles various accents and pronunciations that span international borders. At more than 18 hours, this is a long listen, but thanks to Weber's narration, there's never a dull moment. A Putnam hardcover.

News & Stories


Are you tired of the dust bowl kicked up time after time by your lawnmower blades as your lawn meets the woodline? Mulching where the grass edge ends makes for a well-manicured and dustless mowing. Bark mulch is one easy way to make your residential or commercial property look fantastic in warm weather. Rich colors and uniform texture are two of the factors that contribute to the visual appeal of bark mulch.
Defines areas. Have you ever planted a garden only to watch it get trampled or mowed down? Using bark mulch can prevent you from experiencing such a traumatic event. People are more likely to walk through patches of bare dirt or grass than they are to tread all over your garden, so use bark mulch to create a distinct visual difference between lawn areas and garden areas.
Prevents weeds. Weeds can be unsightly and choke out the plants you actually intend to grow. After you plant your garden, add bark mulch to cover the ground layer, but allow your plants to stick out through the surface. This will prevent sun from reaching weed seeds and sprouts that are lower, and without sun, the weeds are less likely to thrive.
Retains moisture. Bark mulch is naturally absorbent and will prevent your plants from wilting as much during summer heat waves and hot days. You don’t have to let your plants wilt and dry out.
Moderates temperature. On cold days, your garden needs to stay warm, and on hot days, it needs to stay cool. The temperature of the plant roots matters as much as the part of the plant that is above ground. Bark mulch can also help prevent frost heaves, which is a natural phenomenon in cold weather that literally pushes plants out of the ground as the soil contracts and expands with temperature changes.
Adds nutrients. Bark mulch is made entirely of organic materials, which will break down over time and decompose. It’s a good idea to replace the nutrients in garden soil every now and then, as the plants obviously deplete the soil’s nutrients over time.

New Delhi: India has nominated Santiniketan, the university town where Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore founded Visva Bharati, and the mountain range of Western Ghats for a place in Unesco`s World Heritage list, officials said here Tuesday.
The cultural ministry recommended the inclusion of Santiniketan, the university town 180 km from Kolkata, under the cultural category, while the Western Ghats have been nominated under the natural category, according to the officials.
"Unesco (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) officials have already conducted their survey of Santiniketan," a cultural ministry official told reporters.
Tagore, who founded Visva Bharati at Santiniketan in 1901, lived and penned some of his literary classics in the university town, which is one of the most popular tourist spots.
The official said a survey of the Western Ghats, the mountain range that runs north to south along the western edge of the Deccan Plateau and is known for its unique flora and fauna, is yet to be done. The decision over the sites will be taken next year by Unesco.
This year, India added the 18th century Jantar Mantar in Jaipur to its list of Unesco`s World Heritage sites. The astronomical observation site was built in the early 18th century by a Jaipur king.
India has 30 sites under the Unesco listing, including the 17th century Taj Mahal in Agra and Delhi-based Red Fort and Qutab Minar.

Thinking Healthy A manual for psychosocial management of perinatal depression
This is a manual for training community health workers on how to support mothers with depression through evidence based cognitive behavioral techniques that are recommended by the mhGAP programme. The innovative manual was
developed in Pakistan and later applied in many other countries. WHO in collaboration with Prof Atif Rahman and with the advice from an international group of experts, has now produced a generic version of the manual for global use.

Covid in Scotland: More rules could come next week, says Swinney
New Covid restrictions could be introduced in Scotland next week, the deputy first minister has warned.
John Swinney says the Scottish government is "wrestling with the challenge" of the surge of the Omicron variant.
New self-isolation rules have come into force as Scotland recorded 4,087 new Covid cases on Saturday.
All household contacts of someone with the virus should now isolate for 10 days, regardless of vaccination status.
The new isolation rules also apply to household contacts even if they initially get a negative PCR test.
Non-household contacts of someone with Covid are permitted to leave isolation if they have had a negative PCR test and two vaccine doses.
Scientists are warning that the UK is facing a substantial wave of Omicron infections in January without further restrictions.
In an interview with BBC Breakfast, the deputy first minister said the Scottish government would spend the weekend deciding what to do next.
Mr Swinney said: "We are looking at whether we need to take further measures to try to arrest the circulation of the virus. We had a huge rise in cases yesterday and that suggests we have an escalating problem.
"The government is wrestling with the challenge of what are the right rules to have in place over this weekend. We will share details of any changes with parliament over the next few days."
Mr Swinney said there was a danger of the virus overwhelming public and private services, but said he hoped a restricted Christmas would not happen.
He said the Scottish government was "working very hard" to avoid this by asking the public to reduce social interaction and take lateral flow tests.
"We are encouraging people to take these steps so that we can protect the precious time that is Christmas time for families," he added.
"We know how hard that was last year and we want to avoid a repeat of that."
On Saturday the total number of Omicron cases across nine of the Scotland's 14 health boards reached 121.
There were 4,087 new cases of the virus, a rise on the recent daily average of about 2,800 cases.
Public Health Scotland (PHS) said there was a delay in test results being reported, so the actual figures will be higher.
A further 12 deaths were also confirmed following a positive test. The number of people in hospital fell slightly to 552, with 53 patients in intensive care.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said that the current numbers were only the "tip of the iceberg" with cases doubling every two to three days - the fastest growth seen during the whole pandemic.
She warned a media briefing this week that there was an oncoming "tsunami" of Omicron cases.
PHS has urged people to cancel Christmas parties, in a move that hospitality venues said triggered "non-stop cancellations".
Ms Sturgeon said there was a focus on these events, as the new variant posed a big risk to workplaces.
The Scottish Chambers of Commerce said financial compensation should be made available to affected businesses.
University of Edinburgh public health expert Prof Linda Bauld said she hoped this Christmas would not be a repeat of last year.
Speaking to the BBC Radio Scotland's Good Morning Scotland, she also said more restrictions could come next week.
Prof Bauld said: "Everybody wants to avoid shutting businesses again and that would be the last resort, but clearly across the country, decision-makers have to look at the menu of options and decide what is proportionate."
She said lockdown was a last resort, but people may be asked to cut back on socialising plans.
But she added: "Isolation, loneliness and separation from loved ones is something we also want to avoid."
Santa express cancelled
Meanwhile, ward 7a at Raigmore Hospital in Inverness has been closed to new admissions after a Covid outbreak. Visiting has also been stopped.
NHS bosses said it was not connected to an outbreak on ward 5a of the same hospital last week.
Testing will establish if it is the Omicron variant that has closed the wards.
Rising case numbers are also putting pressure on other areas. ScotRail has already cancelled 60 train services due to staff shortages as a result of Covid.
The operator also dropped their festive Santa Express trips on the Fife Circle line this weekend.
Scientists warned on Friday that two doses of a Covid vaccine are not enough to stop people catching the Omicron variant - although a third booster dose significantly increases protection to around 75%.
Vaccines are still likely to offer good protection against severe Covid that would need hospital treatment.

Denver -- Study results released Monday by The Integer Group showed that, although online shopping has increased over the last three years, overall it has leveled out.
According to The Checkout, an ongoing shopper behavior study conducted by Integer and M/A/R/C Research, online shopping is level and steady, but boomers continue to increase their online purchases – up 4.5% since 2011.
Millennials, on the other hand, are backing off, as the study revealed that Millennials who said they are purchasing more online is down 7% from 2011.
"Millennials may be feeling the pinch of a still-slow economy and making the decision to watch spending more closely,” said Craig Elston, SVP, insight & strategy, Integer Group. “It could also be that we are starting to reach a plateau in online-shopping adoption."
Even though many shoppers in the survey noted that they are shopping about the same amount online as they were three months ago, there are some interesting shifts in purchase categories, according to the survey.
Since January 2012, online purchase of health and beauty has increased significantly among shoppers aged 50 to 64, growing nearly 12%. The percentage of 18- to 24-year-olds who say they've purchased any products online, even once, has dropped in all categories except books, music, and tickets. Overall, none of these categories saw major growth from 2011 to 2012.


Highest daily case count since early February; weekly report shows rising numbers
PORTLAND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- There are three new COVID-19 related deaths in Oregon, raising the state’s death toll to 2,449, the Oregon Health Authority reported Wednesday.
OHA also reported 816 new confirmed and presumptive cases of COVID-19 as of 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, bringing the state total to 172,206. It's the largest single-day case count since the 846 reported on Feb. 5.
Vaccinations in Oregon
OHA reported that 39,326 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added Wednesday to the state immunization registry. Of this total, 24,097 doses were administered on Tuesday and 15,229 were administered on previous days but were entered into the vaccine registry on Tuesday.
The 7-day running average is now 38,392 doses per day.
Oregon has now administered a total of 1,215,804 doses of Pfizer, 1,052,206 doses of Moderna and 86,624 doses of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines. As of today, 945, 453 people have completed a COVID-19 vaccine series. There are 1,492,658 who have had at least one dose.
Cumulative daily totals can take several days to finalize because providers have 72 hours to report doses administered and technical challenges have caused many providers to lag in their reporting. OHA has been providing technical support to vaccination sites to improve the timeliness of their data entry into the state’s ALERT Immunization Information System (IIS).
To date,1,499,355 doses of Pfizer,1,289,900 doses of Moderna and 215,500 doses of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines have been delivered to sites across Oregon.
These data are preliminary and subject to change.
OHA's dashboards provide regularly updated vaccination data, and Oregon’s dashboard has been updated Wednesday.
The number of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 across Oregon is 200, which is three more than Tuesday. There are 52 COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit (ICU) beds, which is unchanged from Tuesday.
The total number of patients in hospital beds may fluctuate between report times. The numbers do not reflect admissions per day, nor the length of hospital stay. Staffing limitations are not captured in this data and may further limit bed capacity.
St. Charles Bend reported 12 COVID-19 patients as of 4 a.m. Wednesday, three of whom were in the ICU, two on ventilators.
Weekly COVID-19 reports
The Oregon Health Authority’s COVID-19 Weekly Report, released Wednesday, shows a third consecutive week of surging daily cases, higher hospitalizations and higher deaths than the previous week.
OHA reported 3,722 new daily cases of COVID-19 during the week of Monday, April 5 through Sunday, April 11. That represents a 26% increase from the previous week.
New COVID-19 related hospitalizations rose to 156, up from 150 last week.
There were 47 reported COVID-19 related deaths, which is the highest weekly total in five weeks.
There were 103,928 tests for COVID-19 for the week of April 4 through April 10. The percentage of positive tests was 4.4%.
People 70 years of age and older have accounted for 40% of COVID-19 related hospitalizations and 76% of COVID-19 related deaths.
Today’s COVID-19 Weekly Outbreak Report shows 24 active COVID-19 outbreaks in senior living communities and congregate living settings, with three or more confirmed cases and one or more COVID-19 related deaths.

No doubt about it: It’s been a stinky couple weeks of stinky Green Bay Packers football. So, the first order of business on this week’s UnPack pod is to put a stinky little ribbon on it all and try to move forward.
In the front half of the show, we get specific and chat about a few players who aren’t meeting our expectations.
First, there’s tight end Luke Musgrave. It may be a lot to expect great things from a rookie tight end, but he’s a freaky good athlete for the position and expectations were high to start the season. Where are the seam routes? Where are the downfield passes? Why does it seem like he’s been relegated to 2-yard catches in the flat? Perhaps more importantly, is it a Luke Musgrave problem or a Matt LaFleur problem? Has the player been slow to pick things up, or is the coaching staff asking him to do the wrong things?
Secondly, we stick with the “disappointing pass-catchers” theme and talk about Romeo Doubs. A lot had been made of his connection with first-year starting quarterback Jordan Love, and although they have linked up for 4 touchdowns, Doubs’ catch percentage has dropped to below 55% on the season (down from 62.7% last year). Second-year growing pains are a thing for receivers (Packers fan need only to recall Davante Adams’ first few years on in Green Bay), but at what point do we start to worry about Doubs’ ceiling in the NFL?
Speaking of NFL ceilings, we also talk about the elephant in the room on today’s show: Jordan Love. Emotional kneejerk reactions have been plentiful during the games with what appears to be bad throws and missed opportunities all over the place. But after a good night’s sleep and some film analysis, the picture is much murkier. The truth is, nobody on the entire offense is playing particularly well, and in fact many players are flat out doing on the wrong thing. That’s been happening consistently enough that it makes evaluating Jordan Love pretty impossible — but evaluate the Packers must. In fact, it would be among the worst case scenarios to get to the end of this season and not actually have any certainly on Jordan Love’s viability as a franchise quarterback. Fun!

New Delhi: Railways is facing a severe financial crunch and their accumulated funds have eroded by 93 per cent, the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has said in its latest report.
The CAG report for the year ending March 2011 tabled in Parliament on Tuesday observed that railways has not been able to meet their operational cost of passenger and other coaching services.
"There was heavy cross-subsidisation from freight services to passenger services. Percentage of freight earnings used to subsidize the losses on passenger and other coaching services ranged between 15.80 per cent and 34.32 per cent during 2007-08 to 2009-10," the report stated.
Though railways earned a surplus of Rs 1,404.89 cr during the financial year 2010-11, the accumulated fund balances were substantially depleted indicating a continued poor financial performances by railways and risk for future sustainability.
Capital fund and development fund showed negative balances of Rs 885.71 cr and Rs 1213.34 cr respectively. "This situation would ultimately affect long term sustainability of railway operations. Railways will be severely handicapped to finance any future developmental expenditure until these funds are recouped over and above the negative amount of Rs 2101 cr out of revenue surplus," the CAG noted.
Recommending the way forward, CAG has suggested railways to improve its finances and rationalise both freight and passenger tariffs and also the needs to explore alternate sources to finance its capital expenditure.
"It is essential that Railways increases its market share in bulk commodities where it has an inherent competitive advantage...Railways needs to review all cases of licencing and renting of its assets for timely raising of bills and rationalisation of dues including arrears," it said.
The report also found dependency of gross budgetary support has been increasing due to shrinkage of internal resources.
"It is important for the railways to review all capital works in progress and take expeditious decision with regard to closure of projects especially unremunerated lines, where there is road connectivity and where the progress with the projects is no longer as valid. There is a need to focus more on viable projects," the report said.

Valentine's Day. An intimate setting. Lots of laughter. Gourmet food and wine.
Who wouldn't want that to spend the most romantic day of the year at Pipers' Village Inn?
The B and B and tea room is offering a Martha Stewart Living-worthy setting for couples and singles this Monday at 6:30 p.m. But unlike what one might expect from the somewhat unapproachable domestic diva, this event is hosted by the ever-sociable Jeannine Piper and features interactions with chef Damon Mosholder and vintners from Arrowhead Spring Vineyards - all in a casual environment.
"It's a lot of fun," Piper says. "Everybody has a great time."
She has hosted Valentine's Day winemaker's dinners in the past and says, "It just ends up being a blast."
This year's supper is a five-course meal prepared by Mosholder, a chef who has worked at Carmelo's Restaurant and Water Street Landing.
"He always does a fantastic job, and his presentation is wonderful," Piper says.
Diners will enjoy a three-melon salad with pan-seared scallops and raspberry balsamic vinaigrette; crab cakes with roasted red pepper roumalades and jicama pico de gallo; blackened filet with charred tomato and oregano sauce, served with roasted garlic green-chile-studded potatoes; vanilla-infused lobster with shallot puree and red pepper goat cheese timbales; and chocolate-glazed cocoa hazelnut tart.
Each dish is paired with a selection from Arrowhead Spring Vineyards. What's more, the vineyard is previewing its 2009 Arrowhead Reserve chardonnay for the winemaker's dinner.
"Their wines are fantastic; just unbelievably good," Piper says.
Tickets are $75 per person for the dinner. Seating is limited. To make a reservation, call 946-5547.
Those attending the Valentine's Day event can also take advantage of overnight stay packages. Pipers' offers two Jacuzzi suites and three main house rooms.
Piper says she is planning an event for March with a St. Patrick's Day theme, and another dinner for April. For more information, visit www.pipersvillageinn.com.


ALLENTOWN, Pa. -- An extension cord overloaded with Christmas decorations may have sparked a fire that swept through four downtown row houses Friday, killing five people. The decorations had been plugged in to a power strip joined to an extension cord, Allentown fire Capt. Robert Scheirer said. Investigators were trying to determine whether the wiring failed, an ornament shorted out or whether something else occurred. The three-story home had no working smoke alarms. Three men and two women died inside. Firefighters rescued two adults and six children from a house next door.

text: The Exploited are a punk band from Edinburgh, Scotland founded in 1979. The Sex Pistols had broken up the previous year and people were already claiming that punk had burned out and died. The Exploited set out to prove everyone wrong. Not online was punk not died, it was thriving. In fact, their first album, which was released in 1981 on Secret Records, was simply called Punk's Not Dead. And ever since then, they've been living by that motto. They still play and record to this day, with nearly ten albums and a myriad of singles and splits under their belt at this point. And they're still led by singer Wattie Buchan. This vintage Exploited shirt, slightly faded in great condition, is an early 80s tee from the legendary UK punk band.
