Ricardo Vaz, an editor and writer for Venezuelanalysis.com, joins Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola to talk about censorship his media organization is dealing with on Twitter.
For nearly two weeks, Twitter locked out Ricardo and other Venezuelanalysis staffers from their account, which they use to distribute reporting and analysis of the latest political developments in Venezuela. (Their access was restored on September 6.)
Anyone who went to @venanalysis, the organization's Twitter page, saw the following: "Caution: This account is temporarily restricted. You’re seeing this warning because there has been some unusual activity from this account. Do you still want to view it?"
What is unusual is that Venezuelanalysis consistently publishes content that challenges the United States government's policy of regime change in Venezuela.
During the latter part of the episode, Ricardo discusses the impact of COVID-19 on Venezuela and how U.S. sanctions have worsened the Venezuelan government's ability to deal with the pandemic. He shares some of his thoughts on what would (and would not change) if Democratic nominee Joe Biden becomes President.
Ricardo comments on where Venezuelanalysis fits in the media landscape and highlights some of the history of the website, which has a lot to do with why they are now a target of censorship on social media platforms.

FCA to Test Vehicle-to-Grid Tech in Italy
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV plans to test electric vehicle-to-grid connectivity in Italy next year with a fleet of at least 500 electric cars.
The company will begin tests late this year at FCA’s factory in Mirafiori with an initial fleet of 500 EVs and expand to as many as 700 vehicles by 2021, according to the company.
FCA is working with Terna, Italy’s electrical grid operator, on the project. The objective is to test technology that enables EVs to interact with the grid, taking power from it during low-demand periods and giving it back when demand is high.
Reuters says the test fleet initially will consist of the all-electric version of FCA’s 500 minicars. The model will go into full-scale production at Mirafiori about six months from now.
Reuters notes that the factory also is expected to add hybrid versions of four models next year: the Jeep Compass and Patriot small SUVs, Alfa Romeo Tonale small crossover and the Fiat Panda small car.
Hyundai Motor Co. is looking for a domestic partner to mass-produce the fold-up Ioniq electric scooter it unveiled at last year’s CES show in Las Vegas, a source tells The Korea Herald.
Elio Motors is something of a brash company.
Visteon Corp. is developing DriveCore, an open platform to control and operate autonomous vehicles.

Published October 20th, 2021 at 12:10 PM2 minute read
By Kevin Collison
After years of coasting when it comes to shielding cyclists, the city is racing to finish its longest protected bike path to date, a 3 1/2 mile, north-south route along Gillham Road from near Cleaver Boulevard to the East Crossroads.
The completion of the Gillham route, already the city’s longest protected bike path at 2 1/2 miles, was shifted into high gear by the arrival of the new City Manager Brian Platt in late 2020.
“The new city manager is not shy about saying we need to build out (our bicycle routes) and saw the need to go forward to 19th Street,” said City Councilman Eric Bunch.
“I’m excited to finally see a commitment to multi-modal transportation.”
City workers are marking the final stretch of the Gillham route from its current terminus at McGee Trafficway near 31st Street to 19th and Oak in the heart of the East Crossroads. Gillham becomes Oak north of 22nd Street.
The Gillham bike project began construction in spring 2020 at its south terminus at Brush Creek Boulevard about a block from Cleaver. The route was recommended by a mobility committee established by former City Manager Troy Schulte.
“It connects five parks, and four or five neighborhoods,” said Maggie Green, a city spokeswoman.
“It’s pretty impressive we were able to build a 3 1/2 mile facility in about a year. Our goal is to build 30 miles of protected bicycle lanes next year…the new city manager is passionate about it.”
Green said the new Gillham path is both pragmatic because it piggybacks on a larger street resurfacing project and visionary because it’s part of the city’s Vision Zero KC plan to provide safer streets for all users.
Once completed to 19th and Oak, plans call for 19th Street to include a protected east-west path as far Grand, Main and Southwest Boulevard. The existing painted bike lane on Grand through downtown would be upgraded as well.
The city already has completed a protected bike lane along 18th Street between the East Crossroads and 18th & Vine District, and another east-west route in Midtown along Armour Boulevard from Gillham to Broadway.
Bunch is an avid cyclist who co-founded BikeWalkKC before being elected to the Council. He said the new Gillham lane has not only encouraged more bicyclists over the last year, but runners and e-scooters as well.
“I’m a person who’ll ride about anywhere, but I go out of my way to go to Gillham,” he said. “I feel safer and I bring my kids there. I’m seeing lots of families on weekends and people also are using it to run.
“There’s a good portion of the public who want to ride a bike, but they’re too nervous to. Facilities like this make it feel more like a bike path.
“Our medium- to long-term goal is to continue to work with city staff to see how we build out our bicycle network as we resurface streets…You can get miles done for a marginally extra cost.”

At a breakneck pace, this volume covers the myriad stories in Numbers, Joshua, Judges and Ruth. It begins with the last days of Moses and the installation of Joshua as Israel's leader and moves through Joshua's campaigns and conquest of the Holy Land, through many of the judges (Othniel, Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah, Samson) and the Benjamite rebellion, and ends with the story of Ruth. Comically but respectfully presented, but in no way designed as a replacement for actual Bible reading, this series illustrates both well-known and lesser-known stories from the Bible in an engaging and amusing way. Recommended for ages 9 to 11.
God is Splitting the Ground Open---with a Ka-Boooom! You've never watched the earth open up like this or heard the wall of Jericho fall so loudly. From Numbers to Ruth, Walls, Brawls, and the Great Rebellion gives a whole new look to Old Testament books. It's manga style, where cool artwork, lots of humor, and awesome sound effects keep the action moving, and everyone talks in word bubbles. Has learning important truths from the Bible ever been more exciting and fun?

Chancellor Rishi Sunak revealed in the Spending Report 2020 (SR2020) that basic rate workers will get a 2.2 per cent increase in minimum wage, backtracking the 49p an hour increase which was promised earlier this year.
Sunak said: “We are accepting in full the recommendations of the Low Pay Commission to increase the National Living Wage by 2.2 per cent to £8.91 an hour; to extend this rate to those aged 23 and over; and to increase the National Minimum Wage rates as well.”
It was explained that around two million people would benefit from these minimum wage increases, and that a full time worker on the National Living Wage will see their annual earnings increase by £345 next year.
“Compared to 2016 when the policy was first introduced, that’s a pay rise of over £4,000,” Sunak said.
Wage increase based on age
This is how much the minimum wage is set to rise from April 2021 based on age groups:
16 to 17 years old: a 1.5 per cent increase from £4.55 to £4.62 per hour18 to 20 years old: a 1.7 per cent increase from £6.45 to £6.56 per hour21 to 22 years old: a 2 per cent increase from £8.20 to £8.36 per hourFor apprentices: a 3.6 per cent increase from £4.15 to £4.30 per hour
The daily accommodation offset rate will also be increased by 2 per cent from £8.20 to £8.36.
“Further, the government will increase the 2021-22 Income Tax Personal Allowance and Higher Rate Threshold in line with the September CPI figure,” the SR2020 states.
The government will also use the September CPI figure as the basis for selling all National Insurance limits and thresholds, and the rates of Class 2 and 3 National Insurance contributions, for 2021-22.
‘Letting down workers’
Trades Union Congress (TUC) secretary Frances O’Grady said that workers had been let down by the government’s choice to “row back” on the full pay rise.
Responding to the SR2020 on the TUC blog, the organisation said: “The TUC believes the minimum wage should be at least £10 an hour, so people can earn enough to live on.”
The shopworkers’ union Usdaw also said that it was disappointed that low paid workers would not be getting the full minimum wage increase that they had been promised.
General secretary Paddy Lillis said: “The increase of 19p to £8.91 an hour doesn’t meet the union’s call for £10 per hour, the real living wage rate of £9.50 or even the government’s previously projected rate of £9.21.
“We provided the Low Pay Commission with evidence of why we need a new deal for workers, which includes at least £10 per hour and an end to unjust rip off youth rates.
“Today the Chancellor missed the opportunity to fully recognise the huge efforts low paid key workers have made through the pandemic. There needs to be lasting and fundamental changes to the way society views our lowest paid workers.
“We need a new deal for the workers, and a minimum wage of at least £10 per hour.”

Attack multiple targets
Disintegrators were Scrin anti-armour infantry units in Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath. They are an equivalent to GDI Missile squads and Nod Militant rocket squads, albeit unable to fire at air targets.
Once again, our knowledge of Scrin units is extremely limited. Based on information gleaned from those who have observed it in the field, it appears that this unit is little more than a tiny biomechanical walker whose only function seems to the destruction of vehicles.
They appear to be pack-oriented and have been seen traveling almost exclusively in small groups numbering between five and twelve; larger forces are several packs in the same place. They often attack in unison, much like lions or wolves, although they don't bother with using ambush tactics. Instead, they attack their prey outright, concentrating their fire onto a single target to maximize efficiency. They have also been observed to attack multiple targets, though with much less damage inflicted and suffer severe casualties or total annihilation.
However, when they are crushed, they are said to expel an extremely caustic acid that eats away at armor.
Due to the enzyme that disintegrates most Scrin bodies upon death, very few specimens of any Scrin units have been retrieved. However, Disintegrators are different. Rather than dissolving, their bodies are corroded by a caustic acid that is excreted when crushed by a vehicle.
Other than the obvious fact that it uses conventional locomotion, the Disintegrator's inner workings were a total mystery until the evacuation of Berne. During that battle, several Disintegrator corpses were retrieved from the battlefield and taken to the GDI Xenobiology Lab in Dublin, Ireland, where they were dissected. It was found that they were little more than small robots with mechanical legs for locomotion and large "head" of spongy tissue, bulbous at one end and thin and spoutlike at the other.
Then, one of the Disintegrators spontaneously began oozing the caustic liquid, which rapidly corroded the legs and dripped onto the table. The table was made of a titanium-uranium composite, among the strongest metals known, and the acid disintegrated it in under half a minute. Thus, the exact functions if these mechanical animals' internal organs remain unknown.
|Advanced articulators||Add 85% speed to Disintegrators when upgraded (Ctrl+A).||Purchasable at Traveler-59 Stasis Chamber for $1000 and takes 0:30 to research.|
The primary role of Disintegrators is as a close-range anti-armor unit. However, they are fairly effective at combating enemy infantry though they tend to be cost ineffective in this role, functioning like a weaker version of Rifleman squads or militants when used against enemy infantry.
Unlike the anti-armor units of other factions, particularly rocket infantry, Disintegrators need to get up-close and personal to destroy their targets. The fact that they attack in a large squad and fire quickly makes them better at chewing through multiple vehicles at a time when they are deployed in groups (they cannot expect to overwhelm most vehicles in single squads) than other anti-tank units. They move quickly for infantry, allowing them to easily get within range in most situations. Once they are within range they deal large amounts of damage, regardless of whether their target is infantry or vehicles, though the damage to vehicles is more significant. As Scrin units they are not bothered by Tiberium radiation, they can run straight through Tiberium fields without fear of harm.
Due to their short range, Disintegrators are very vulnerable to being crushed. They partially make up for this by dealing damage to units that crush them, though for tanks, crushing them still tends to lend a better chance of victory than getting into a ranged battle with them. They are also very easy to kill; each of the six members of a squad has little health and can often be picked off by the counter-infantry of other factions, or anti-infantry vehicles like Guardian APCs easily, increasing the importance of deploying them in large masses.
Traveler-59 Disintegrator rush
A Disintegrator rush is a popular strategy in Kane's Wrath multiplayer. Once the player builds a Portal, construction begins on the Stasis Chamber while several Disintegrator squads are being trained. When the Stasis Chamber is built, research of the Advanced articulators upgrade begins as the Disintegrators move to the enemy's base, most often aimed at harvesters. After the upgrade is finished, the Stasis Chamber is usually sold to restore some of the lost credits, while the upgrade itself stays applied.
This strategy can catch the enemy off guard, but stalls the rushing player's economy.
- Deadly against ground vehicles and buildings
- Decently counter infantry
- Cheapest squad-based infantry unit available to the Scrin
- Effective blockade unit; inflicts damage when run over (except when facing units with the Dozer blades upgrade)
- Healed by Tiberium fields and Corrupters
- Concentrating on one target makes them lethal against heavily-armoured vehicles
- Faster than most other infantry
- Highly vulnerable to anti-infantry weapons like rifles and machineguns; poor health per squadmember
- Poor range, this combined with their low health means that most styles of attack will result in some casualties
- Though they inflict damage when crushed, tanks generally will do better running them over anyway and will probably do so
- Scorpion tanks and Reckoners upgraded with Dozer Blades render crush damage ineffective
- Can not fire at air targets
- Cannot garrison buildings

We had decided to head straight for the surfer town of Mancora, and agreed we hade made the right decision when we arrived at the first town we came, to, Tumbes. We rolled straight through, not wanting to stop in this unappealing town until we came to a queue of cars and trucks. We pulled up to the front and parked up when we saw a policeman turning traffic around.
I walked over to ask him what was going on. Apparently, the local fishermen were protesting about plans for the Gas companies to drill in the bays where they fished. Their livelihoods were at stake and they were taking matters very seriously, and had blockaded the roads all along the coast, there was no way forward. I asked if we could go ahead and see if we could find our own way through, but the cop told us that it was dangerous. He said if we liked, we could wait around for a while and se if anything changed, but advised us to go back to Tumbes, the nasty looking border town we had just ridden through and wait it out.
We moved the bike off the road, parking next to the police car , and waited to see what transpired. We had been hanging around for about half an hour, when all of a sudden there was a commotion. People were running towards us from the direction of the blockade, the cops included, the policeman who we had been speaking to shouted at us to get on the bike and move back. Then he in turn ran to his car, and screeched off. We followed the cop car, but the passenger motioned at us to overtake him, putting his car between us, and the riotous fishermen.
We rode up the way towards Tumbes for a couple of miles, and then pulled over again. The cops pulled up to tell us they had lost control of the mob, and that we really should return to Tumbes and wait to see if things calmed down for the next day.
It seemed we had little choice. We rode back to Tumbes, and started looking for a place to spend the night.
Our first impressions of Tumbes were absolutely right. The town was a complete dump. Moto taxis filled the streets, constantly tooting their horns, mosquitoes were everywhere, and the brick buildings were ugly and characterless.
We found a clean, reasonably priced hotel after an extensive search, parked the bike in the reception, and skulked up the stairs to our room, to hide for the night.
We didnít emerge from our room until the next morning, when we ventured out to find a policeman and some breakfast.
We came across breakfast first, which unfortunately did nothing to lift our mood, and alas nor did the news we gleaned from the first copper we came across.
We walked through the town, just to make sure there wasnít a nice part hidden somewhere, and when we had confirmed that the whole town was in fact a complete shit-hole, we went back to our room to watch TV.
We regularly checked the road situation with the receptionist, and went out a couple of times in the day to find a policeman to re-check the situation with the fisherman. As the day drew to an end, we reluctantly agreed to stay another night, and try again in the morning. We were meeting more and more tourists who were stuck in the same situation as us, so at least we were no longer the only gringos in town.
There was no change the next day, except that Jacquie had started to feel a bit under the weather. I left her in bed and went for a little wonder round town just to get out of the room. I walked down to the market at the bottom end of town, and chatted with a few of the stallholders and shoppers. The people were friendly and I started to feel bad about writing the town off so haphazardly. It warmed me that at even is such a nasty place, the people were friendly and welcoming. Then I got robbed, and I changed my mind back again! I really wanted to get out of this place!
Friendly locals at the market, moments before my watch was robbed off my wrist..
When I got back to the hotel, minus my watch, the receptionist told me that the blockade would be lifted in the morning. Best news I had had in ages! I rushed upstairs and told Jacquie the good news (we can leave here tomorrow) and the bad news (the watch you bought me got nicked).
Posted by Dan Shell at January 19, 2010 07:49 PM GMT
We packed up and left early in the morning, and saw the best view of the town; in our rearview mirror! We rode through small fishing villages and saw signs of the roadblocks where rocks had been moved to the side of the road. It wasnít just the small village south of Tumbes, as we had first thought, but a string of fishing towns all the way down the coast, almost as far as Mancora.

Glaxo breathes easier as lung drug may not face US competition until 2016
Advair, GlaxoSmithKline's top-selling lung drug, is set to enjoy a longer lease of life than widely expected, due to the difficulties facing generic companies seeking to make cut-price copies.
A strategy update from Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd suggests that the competition's threat is limited and not imminenent for £5 billion-a-year Glaxo.
Crucially, Teva believes the regulatory hurdles for winning approval for an inhaled drug such as Advair in the key US market are so high it will not be possible to develop a generic copy that can be substituted for the original.
Competitors: Generic drugs firm Teva said it would be hard to get approval in the US for a copy of Glaxo's inhaled lung drug
Instead, the world's biggest maker of generic drugs told investors today it would work on a branded competitor that could be filed for US approval in 2014, which analysts said suggested approval in 2016.
Glaxo shares were 2.3 per cent higher this afternoon on the news, outperforming a 1 per cent advance in the European drugs sector.
‘The world's top generic company has now admitted that there will be no rapid erosion of Advair by generics, which should assuage the fears of even the most sceptical fund manager,’ said Citigroup analyst Kevin Wilson.
Teva's strategy removes a key threat to Advair and follows a decision by Novartis AG's generics unit Sandoz in March to drop development of a generic version of Advair it was working on with Vectura Group Plc.
In Europe, Teva plans to file a generic form of Advair for approval in 2012, implying a launch in 2013 or 2014, which is two or three years later than some Glaxo investors had feared. Overall, Teva expects respiratory products to contribute about $2.4 billion to its $31 billion revenue target for 2015.
The latest news is a vindication for Glaxo Chief Executive Andrew Witty, who has always argued Advair will remain a major product, despite losing US patent protection in 2011, because of the technical difficulties of making inhaled drugs.
Continued strong sales of Advair, which accounted for 18 per cent of revenue in 2009, will give Witty an important buffer as he pushes to diversify the British-based drugmaker and secure new sources of revenue.
Lack of imminent generic competition could also help ease the transition to a new treatment for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that Glaxo is developing with Theravance Inc Glaxo recently gave a promising glimpse of its once-daily successor to Advair, called Relovair, which it expects to be the first next-generation combination respiratory medicine to reach the market.
It has started final-stage Phase III clinical testing of Relovair and analysts believe the drug could get to market by 2013, at which point the drugmaker will try to switch as many patients as possible to the new product.

Abstract: This work describes the steps for obtaining two link layer protocols for a wireless sensor network WSN, which functions integrated at single stack. The central axis for the development is the Received Signal Strength Indicator of the signal radio available at the implementation of the radio system in the IEEE802.15.4 standard. The protocols developed are quality link management protocols and positioning and localization protocols. The final results are completed with the protocols time synchronization, topology control and routing for generating a single protocols stack loading at nodes of WSN applied to industrial processes.
Keywords: Wireless Sensor Network, IEEE802.15.4, ZigBee, RSSI, Data Link Layer Protocol, Quality of Link, Link Indicator, Anchors, Positioning and Localization, Protocols Stack.

Héctor Kaschel C., Luis Sánchez y B., José G. MARDONES F, Gustavo QUEZADA C., Design and Construction of Link Quality and Localization Protocol Algorithms at WSN over IEEE802.15.4 Physical Protocol, Studies in Informatics and Control, ISSN 1220-1766, vol. 20 (3), pp. 285-292, 2011. https://doi.org/10.24846/v20i3y201109
Wireless Sensor Network WSN consists of individual nodes capable of interacting with their environment across sensing or physical parameters control; these nodes are collaborating amongst themselves to complete their tasks; tasks they cannot do individually. They use wireless communication for collaboration. In essence, the nodes are shaping a network because they have computer, wireless communication and control or sensing functions .
The origin of this work is the need to dispose of a WSN protocols stack whose performance can be considered as a complete object, fundamentally for three reasons:
- WSN will be applied in an industrial environment either as a plant or outdoor labor.
- If WSN is applied to this environment, two very important conditions will be presented: firstly, that the industrial processes will be functioning in real time and secondly, that the network is fault tolerant  to achieve a very high reliability rate.
- The current available hardware permits load software pieces of a size that allows each node to contain all the necessary information for building a protocols stack and has space for a host of other applications.
- To meet with the given conditions, the software modules should be built as a single object with several options, for each protocol.
All network functionality is subordinated to the layer model, those sharing modules at the link andnetwork layer, as shown in figure 1.
Figure 1. Protocols model by layer
Figure 1 shows the implementation of link management and localization protocols that is necessary for the efficient performance of topology control and routing protocols, as the first step of development, which includes all mentioned protocols. In addition, the time synchronization protocol coordinates the execution of other protocols.
A review on current literature on this issue reveals no evidence of the development of an integral solution, as described in this paper, therefore this work is a new contribution to the field of WSN research.
Each software module contains a protocol that meets a specific function and is related to neighboring modules that share data and information. This allows a sequential machine to be simulated by parallel machine behavior.
In previous works the layer models are raised  to watch the phenomena from perspectives not necessarily compliant with the OSI model, or else focused on the data and service perspectives that the network supports.
Also, previous publications have defined protocols with similar functions but they work independently amongst themselves  without apparent intentions of generating a stack, as is proposed in this investigation. Also the treatment of the link management protocol is poor, especially when it is based on obtaining the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) parameter that offers a measurement tool for the power of received signals. There remains a doubt about the effectiveness since the errors produced at the lowest power (- 60 dBm or less) require care with the treatment that the existing authors have been justified in using . The author of the investigation produced evidence that validates the use of RSSI and contributes to the WSN layered protocols development.
The link management protocol directly affects other link layer protocols, as well as the network layer protocols, because by knowing the link quality one does not need to spend time and energy in framing, topology controlling and routing.
By respecting localization and positioning modules, there exist multiple proposals  y , that consider RSSI as a key factor for determining the distance between nodes that permit, by various methods, the setup position of each node into the network. Other methods include the Signal Angle of Reception and the Reception Differential of Time Arriving methods, but in both of these cases it is necessary to pay an additional cost, such as an addressable antenna for the first case and the dedicated clock algorithm which consumes machine cycles, for the second case.
The proposal developed here considers the RSSI, not from the neighboring nodes, but from anchors located at default positions that form an absolute coordinated system. There have been two attempts to develop this [ ], but neither attempt considered an absolute coordinated system. In one case a mobile anchor is used and in the other the information about the anchor’s position is incorporated as data into packets that flow across the nodes. Therefore, evidence relative to these cases does exist.
With the intent to validate the hypothesis that the use of RSSI is the most reliable technique with the lowest cost, it is necessary prove in the field what some authors have suggested through their own research: that that the RSSI at IEEE802.15.4 standard implementations, is between -30 dBm and -90 dBm
To obtain a design according to what we want to achieve, a small network without load is built, in indoor and outdoor conditions and measurements of RSSI were obtained. This network works with nodes built over ZigBee technology, one node connected to a portable computer and another autonomous and mobile node, supplied by batteries.
The data collected through testing is considered as a reference and a justification for establishing a design criterion for an algorithm which would determine a quality link indicator. This would permit other protocols to take decisions of whether or not to do the work. If the decision is negative, then it would generate a timeout until the indicator is reliable.
The positioning and localization protocol is projected using the same RSSI to which applies a trilateralization algorithm. The RSSI was collected from three fixed anchors which mark the absolute coordinates. By computing the Euclidean distances algorithm, where the distances are obtained from the relationship between RSSI and the distance from the emitter, the approximated position into the coverage area from the network is determined.
When the network is operating fully, these protocols should work embedded into a microcontroller with a low memory and processing capacity, which is directly connected to a radio transceiver system ZigBee and the sensor: this set is called a sensor node.
This document is organized into sections; the Section II shows how to plan, organize and execute the testbed that permits the collection of the data, describing exactly the use of devices; later, in Section III the results of the measurements are shown, explaining the relationship with the scenarios in which they were obtained; later, section IV describes the aspects related to link management protocol development and how the quality indicator is deployed. Section V shows what, according to author, is a notable contribution to WSN research, such as the use of anchors or beacons in the construction of an absolute coordinated system, not only for localization processes but, also, for topology control. The Section VI specifies the development criteria and the algorithm for the localization and positioning protocols that use the RSSI parameter as the operational central axis, while the Section VII delivers the remaining challenges for future researches and the conclusions obtained.

An abundance of stones is the key to a more pleasant sauna session experience.
Ideal conditions with the pillar stove
A stove with a huge amount of stones can more easily and quickly ensure ideal sauna conditions. One of such models is the Harvia CILINDRO PC90, accommodating up to 80 kg of stones, which are included in the set. The openwork cover mounted on the outside of the entire pillar also deserves special attention in this model. It is what enables you to freely adjust steam parameters. If you want the steam to be mild, soft and gentle, you should pour water over the stones from the side. On the other hand, if you want the sensation to be stronger and the steam harder and sharper, it is recommended to do it from the top.
A highly powerful stove for medium-sized saunas
If you place the CILINDRO stove on the floor, you can count on it to heat any medium-sized sauna perfectly and thoroughly. This is because it is ideal for saunas with a room volume from 8 m3 to as much as 14 m3. Furthermore, its stainless steel construction ensures its optimal performance for many years.
- Dimensions: Width 360 mm / Depth 340 mm / Height 930 mm
- Weight: 10 kg
- Stove power: 9 kW
- Designed for saunas with a volume of: 8–14 m3
- Power supply: 3-phase supply 400 V 3N, power supply cable 5 x 2.5 mm², fuse 3 x 16.
- The price includes: 80 kg of stones


Honda SFA 150 may launch as an all new premium naked 150 cc offering with liquid cooling and fuel injection but the production name is expected to stay different from its concept name. It would most probable use the CBR150R engine specs and due its lower overall weight, would prove to be a better sprinter. It can launch with a price tag of INR 1,10,000 and due to Honda’s new scooter only factory, production of new bikes becomes more easy at other plants for the 2 wheeler manufacturer.

If you love wandering through history and learning about life in a castle, then a visit to Aberdeen should be in your itinerary.
Aberdeenshire is Castle Country!
Aberdeenshire is a county in the northeast of Scotland where there are more castles per acre than anywhere else in Scotland. With a mix of privately owned, dramatic castle ruins and managed properties that are open to the public, visitors face the difficult task of choosing where to go! So, to help, we are highlighting three of our favourite castles to help with your itinerary planning.
Let's start with Castle Fraser
Castle Fraser is a beautiful Scottish baronial tower house with a long avenue directing you to the courtyard with crow-step gables, towers and an impressive armorial panel. Constructed of native granite by local masons, it’s a reflection of the family pride of Mackenzie-Fraser Clan.
The original building, constructed in 1454, was a simple rectangular stone-vaulted block. The castle was extended in the 16th century adding the Michael tower and the round tower as well as three extra floors. With many rooms to explore, a room that stands out is the “worked room”. The room is named for the stunning 18th century needlework bed hangings, curtains and painted furniture created by Miss Elyza Fraser and her companion Miss Mary Bristow.
The worked room is the largest bedroom in the castle and the laird’s private chamber. Miss Elyza Fraser, the castle’s only female laird, was one family member who made a lasting contribution to the castle and learning about her story is part of what makes a visit to Fraser special.
Castle Fraser is managed by the National Trust for Scotland. The grounds are extensive with a walled garden and woodland walks, you can easily spend a morning or afternoon experiencing the estate.
Discover fabulous Fyvie Castle
Fyvie Castle is another National Trust for Scotland property and was once a royal stronghold, the land around the castle was a royal hunting forest. The castle changed owners several times from the Earl of Carrick to Robert Lindsay and Sir Henry Preston, whose coats of arms can be seen in the dining room. When Alexander Seton purchased the castle in 1596, he set about greatly enlarging the castle and created the imposing 16th century Scottish baronial building. In the late 19th century, when Alexander Leith took ownership, he spent time improving the interiors and curating the various collections in the castle.
With an impressive driveway and surrounded by gardens, boating pond and woodlands Fyvie is a film maker’s dream. The castle has many stories to tell and like all good castles and few ghosts haunting the hallways and rooms. Not to be missed are the collections of beautiful portraits and paintings throughout the building. There are works from Gainsborough, Romney, Raeburn and Hopper but perhaps one of the most intriguing portraits it that of Colonel the Hon William Gordon by Pompeo Batonie. The Colonel is shown swathed in tartan, sword in hand while in the background are images relating to Roman mythology including the figure of Roma.
With 800 years of history and more that its fair share of disreputable lairds, if you like hearing tales of intrigue and mystery then a visit to Fyvie should be high on your list.
Be sure to add Huntly Castle to your plans
When in the northeast, be sure to include a visit to Huntly castle, managed by Historic Environment Scotland. In the grounds of Huntly are the remains of the motte and bailey castle which stood in the 1100’s. Huntly was the chief residence of the mighty Gordon Clan. The marquis and marchioness of Huntly elaborately decorated the building in 1602 making it one of the most elegant castles in the region.
Although the building is now a ruin, there are plenty of examples of the castle’s former grandeur.
The 4th Earl of Huntly was very ostentatious and a show off, so much so that he was given the nickname the ‘Cock of the North’. The family was Catholic and proudly showed their faith, which following the Reformation Act of 1560, was partly the reason for his demise. The Earl was confronted by the army of Mary Queen of Scots, he was captured and subsequently died by falling off his horse. His embalmed corpse was tried and found guilty of treason in Edinburgh and his castle was ransacked.
With a brewhouse, bakery and dungeon there are some ancient features to discover on the estate and worth making the effort to visit the town of Huntly.
Make it a long weekend...
These are only three examples of the great properties that can be found in Aberdeenshire, and we want to encourage you to look at the National Trust for Scotland and Historic Environment Scotland websites to discover the castles and properties found in the Northeast of Scotland. There are so many to explore there is even a Castle Trail offering a great road trip adventure. There are some lovely rural villages and towns along the way to stay and enjoy our local hospitality.

Video Game betting is taking over the online betting industry and for good reasons. With the growth in the integration of sports with the online world, the trust with the competitors is also seeking a sharp rise. A large number of the online companies have taken a stride in creating several leagues in e-sports tournaments that are mainly run by the third parties.
The viewership of these betting on e-sports are increasing by 15% every year, and the industry of online betting and video game betting sees a sharp rise, year-on-year. With the largest creator of the e-sports events and other activities, in this article, we’ve narrowed down the choices to three great games which are the most exciting to bet on, in 2020
From the perspective on an outsider, watching the gameplay, this seems to be a well sought after and an easy game, despite looking a tad bit unfair. It is reminiscent of the football game, but with cards. The game was released recently in 2015 after which it hit the markets massively with the introduction of the game in various e-sport events. It is divided into two- the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) and the Rocket League Rival Series (RLRS). Both of these leagues re mainly developed and funded during the tournaments by the Psyonix.
Rainbow Six Siege
The game is setting its foot into the world of online betting into the fifth year, and it is more significant than it was ever expected to be. They’re used for the multiple seasons every year and this year, they follow a completely revamped version. This game was developed by a company named Ubisoft which have also announced their release or the Xbox Series X and the newest Playstation 5 as well. This game has set its standards in the ESL Pro League for all the global competitors, and the developers and the competitors state that the sports betting in the RS are as bright as a flash of the grenade.
Dota 2, a short version of the name for Defense of the Ancients, is one of the smaller versions of the MOBA games and the fan base for this game is arguably one of the best in the world of video game betting. The game is developed by a company named Valves. The fans and sports bettors for this game generally expect a hyper and a critical match that generally thrills all the eSports spectators as well. Although the Legend of the Leagues below this game has somewhat paced its way to catch up, Dota 2 remains at the top position of the eSPorts chart the game is comprised in an open circuit tournament format, alongside all the international and popular games. The pool prize for betting on the game in 2019 was $34 million.

I love a good Collector’s Edition. It’s the main reason I still buy anything at retail – for the most part I got for cheapest price and most convenience when it comes to games, which means digital purchases on sale. But, a few times a year, there are gorgeous Collector’s Editions that grab my eye and I must own. The prospect of having a stunning collectible along with the game, art book and whatever else makes it so worthwhile. This South Park: The Fractured but Whole would probably fall into that category.
The exclusive bundle includes: Remote Control Coon Mobile, Cartman’s Coon-themed big wheel; South Park : The Fractured but Whole Gold Edition game with SteelBook and Season Pass subscription
Controlled with free smartphone app (iOS and Android) via Bluetooth
Moves in eight directions
Library of 12 pre-recorded lines voiced by The Coon
Requires batteries (sold separately)
Just having that as a toy would have been cool, but an RC version that’s controlled with a smart phone? Awesome! It’s like that adorable BB-8 all over again, and I’m totally okay with that. This will make diehard fans very happy. Until they see the price, that is – I don’t know too many people who are willing to fork out $190 for a Collector’s Edition, even if it does include such an awesome toy. Then again, it does also include the Season Pass, which is something I wish everyone would do with their Collector’s Edition.
I’m just wondering if they aren’t going to push the envelope, as is the way for the South Park guys, with the whole Coon thing. Could he be pulled over by the cops? Will there be some reference to police brutality? I love these trikes – I always wanted one as a kid, and I’m supremely jealous of Cartman for having one. I will have to play this game and make sure my character gets one, too. Now excuse me while I go make a track in my garden to place with an RC toy.

Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Jason Campbell has reached an agreement on a one-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Campbell will be reunited with Hue Jackson, his former coach with the Oakland Raiders. Jackson was promoted to offensive coordinator on Jan. 9 to replace Jay Gruden.
The Browns released Campbell and Brandon Weeden on March 12. Campbell, in his only season with Cleveland, passed for 2,015 yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions.

Gov. Kasich Wants SB5 Compromise
Governor John Kasich and other fellow republicans want to reach an agreement with labor unions on Senate Bill 5 which would call off a fall referendum. Kasich has asked to meet with 10 union leaders involved in the group pushing for the law’s repeal on Friday. We Are Ohio said in a new release Wednesday afternoon the governor’s approach to a compromise “flawed.”
The controversial law, signed by the governor in March, would prohibit strikes, take away collective bargaining rights and reduce government contributions to public employees’ pensions.
Supporters of the bill say it brings public worker benefits more in line with the private sector.


Does the HomePod have enough features to compete against Amazon Echo and Google Home? Oscar Raymundo reports
A pple used its WWDC keynote to give us a sneak peek of an all-new product: The HomePod. Originally rumoured to be called Siri Speaker, the HomePod is a smart speaker with Wi-Fi capabilities intended to compete against Amazon Echo devices and Google Home – although it will be significantly more expensive. During the keynote, Apple’s senior VP of marketing Phil Schiller boasted about the HomePod’s audio quality, its built-in room sensors, and the integration with Apple Music.
With its always-on voice assistant and ability to control connected devices, the HomePod is very similar to Echo devices and Google Home, but with a few notable differences. (We were able to get a closer look after the keynote, and you can check out our first eyes-on impressions here.) Here are the must-know HomePod features, specs, and sales info showcased during WWDC.
The HomePod will be available for sale starting in December, initially in the UK, the US and Australia. So it’s will only support English-language voice commands during the initial rollout. It will then be available in other countries starting in 2018.
The HomePod costs $349 in the US and we estimate it will be £349 in the UK. It will be available in two colours: white and space grey. By comparison, Amazon Echo is £149 from tinyurl.com/y96duarw, while Google Home retails for £129 from fave.co/2skmLpc.
The HomePod comes with an A8 fusion chip, the same one that powers the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. That definitely puts it up at the top when it comes to ‘smart’ speakers. Like the AirPods (which sport an A1 chip), setting up the HomePod is just as easy and intuitive. All you have to do is hold your iPhone next to the HomePod and it’ll be ready to start playing music in seconds.
How to activate it
The HomePod has six microphones so that it can be activated verbally using the “Hey Siri” voice command. We’re not sure what happens if you have “Hey Siri” activated on your nearby iPhone as well. Hopefully, Apple implements a way for you to customize which device responds and fulfils the voice commands, or for the iPhone and the HomePod to communicate with each other and figure it out.
You can ask Siri to send a text message to your friend, start playing the latest episode of your favourite podcast, and get the latest updates in news, sports, traffic, and weather. You can also use voice commands to set alarms, timers, and reminders. In addition, Siri on the HomePod can help you answer some of your most burning questions such as, “What’s the best Indian restaurant nearby?” or “Did Manchester United win last night?”
The HomePod does not have a touchscreen like the more-recent Amazon Show, but it can still responds to touch controls. You can tap the top of HomePod to play, pause, or adjust the volume. This panel also animates with an LED waveform to indicate whenever Siri is listening.
You can ask Siri to turn on the lights, close the shades, or activate a scene that you’ve preset in the Home app. HomePod can even control these devices when you’re not home via the Home app, giving you the power to remotely control your devices from anywhere. So far, HomeKit compatible with connected devices from Ecobee, Honeywell, August, Kwikset, Philips Hue, Lutron, and more.
Apple wanted to create a speaker that delivered stateof-the-art sound that ‘rocks the house’. The HomePod
includes an Apple-designed four-inch woofer for a deeper bass and seven beam-forming tweeters for high frequency acoustics. All of this was designed to preserve the richness and intent of the original recordings. Of course, we won’t be able to vouch for this until we get to listen to it later this year.
Thanks to the new AirPlay 2, Wi-Fi speakers are now part of the HomeKit family so you can get multi-room audio controls from a single iPhone. This gives you the option to use the Home app to control multiple HomePods in different rooms and sync audio playback. Furthermore, AirPlay 2 is also compatible with Wi-Fi speakers from other manufacturers, including Bose, Bang & Olufsen, Bowers & Wilkins and Apple’s Beats.
Unfortunately, the only music streaming service that the HomePod supports is Apple Music. In fact, Apple claims the smart speaker was designed to be deeply tied to Apple Music, which costs £9.99 per month. And we don’t foresee Apple bringing another other services to the fold anytime soon (or ever).
If you’re an Apple Music member, the HomePod can access Apple Music’s full catalogue, as well as tap into machine learning to learn about your music preferences and suggest songs and artists you might like. Apple refers to the HomePod as the perfect musicologist. In addition, you can create a shared Up Next queue
with other nearby iOS devices so that everyone in the house can participate in picking music.
Not every room is the same, so the HomePod has learned about spatial awareness. Its built-in sensors can determine the size and layout of its surroundings to automatically deliver the volume and acoustic output that best fills the room. Think of it as virtual surround sound. When two paired HomePods are in the room, they’ll be able to sense each other to deliver actual surround sound.
Privacy is also being touted as a vital component. According to Apple, the smart speaker will only start collecting information after the ‘Hey Siri’ voice command is activated. This means that you shouldn’t be afraid that the HomePod is secretly recording your conversations in order to sell you stuff. All information is recorded locally on the device and sent to Apple servers encrypted using an anonymous Siri ID.
