Russia has taken advantage of lower gold prices to pack the vaults of its central bank with bullion as it prepares for the possibility of a long, drawn-out economic war with the West.
The latest research from the World Gold Council reveals that the Kremlin snapped up 55 tonnes of the precious metal – far more than any other nation – in the three months to the end of September as prices began to weaken.
Vladimir Putin's government is understood to be hoarding vast quantities of gold, having tripled stocks to around 1,150 tonnes in the last decade. These reserves could provide the Kremlin with vital firepower to try and offset the sharp declines in the rouble.
Russia's currency has come under intense pressure since US and European sanctions and falling oil prices started to hurt the economy. Revenues from the sale of oil and gas account for about 45pc of the Russian government's budget receipts.

Karachi: According to news sources provided on August 16, the State Bank of Pakistan said that the Roshan Digital Account (RDA) initiative has reached a milestone by exceeding the USD 2 billion barriers in just 11 months.
The RDA project, according to the SBP, crossed the USD 2 billion mark on August 14. The apex bank expressed gratitude to abroad Pakistanis for their trust and support for RDA programs. According to analysts, Pakistanis living abroad have invested in the program’s many offerings. It was also reported that as the central bank presents new investment options, remittance inflows will increase.
Farrukh Habib, Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting, said in a tweet that the higher remittance inflow demonstrates non-resident Pakistanis’ confidence and trust in Prime Minister Imran Khan’s policies.
PM Imran Khan announced the RDA in September 2020, allowing foreign Pakistanis to create bank accounts in Pakistan remotely. SBP, the federal government, and eight commercial banks collaborated on the project.
Analysts and experts predict that the RDA will continue to draw foreign investment, particularly from the Gulf region.

Last month’s Supreme Court decision to uphold major provisions of the Affordable Care Act was an important victory for the estimated one in four adults who experience a mental illness in a given year (and the one in two who will suffer from one at some point in their life). By combining an individual mandate for health insurance with parity for coverage of psychiatric illness (i.e., mental illness must be covered in the same manner as other medical problems), the healthcare overhaul “has the potential to change the course of life for psychiatric patients for the better, and in that sense it is both humane and right,” notes Dr. Dilip V. Jeste, President of the American Psychiatric Association.
Some provisions of the Affordable Care Act are particularly helpful for mental health coverage, including: 1. Allowing young adults to remain on their parents’ insurance until age 26; 2. Forbidding denial of insurance coverage due to a pre-existing condition; and 3. Removing lifetime caps on mental health benefits. According to the National Comorbidity Survey (a large study of mental illness in America) 50% of all serious psychiatric illness in the US will begin before age 14 and 75% by age 25. Early diagnosis and treatment in young teens and adults provides critical window to improve long-term prognosis. Due to this pattern of early onset, the majority of adult Americans suffering from psychiatric illness would be classified as having a “pre-existing condition”, which previously could have resulted in denial of coverage. Lastly, mental health disorders can be chronic diseases with cycles of relapse, even for those receiving treatment. Eliminating annual and lifetime caps on mental health coverage will provide access to treatment throughout the course of one’s illness.
Although the full impact of these changes won’t be felt until 2014, the Affordable Care Act is an important step towards ensuring that all Americans suffering from mental illness, including eating disorders, receive the insurance coverage and care they deserve.

Lignovations Triumphs in IFSCC Sustainability ChallengeSeptember 7, 2023
Sunscreen Myths and Jungle – Synthetic vs. NaturalNovember 7, 2023
Sustainability has become a buzzword with a considerable gap between expectation and reality. Nevertheless, it remains a key topic that is impacting consumer behavior and changing the way companies operate. In this blogpost we want to share more about upcycling and how lignin acts as part of the circular economy.
Circularity in Products – Why it Matters
Consumers are willing to change their habits to reduce their environmental impact. However, they want businesses to do their part as well. When considering physical products an important aspect of sustainability considerations is the concept of circular economy.
In a world where natural resources are depleting at an alarming rate, it becomes increasingly important to adopt sustainable practices in our production and consumption patterns. Therefore, the concept of the circular economy offers a solution by emphasizing the idea of respecting nature. Additionally it ensures that nothing goes to waste. It is a model that promotes sharing, reusing, repairing, recycling, and upcycling existing materials and products as long as possible. By embracing circularity, we can reduce the environmental impact of many products and turn sustainability from a buzzword to reality.
What is Upcycling?
One powerful approach within the concept of circular economy is upcycling. Upcycling involves the recovery of used materials and transforming them into higher quality pieces, hence expanding their lifespan. Unlike recycling, which often involves breaking down materials to their basic components, upcycling focuses on repurposing and enhancing the value of existing materials. It is a creative process that encourages innovation and gives new life to discarded items. Above all, upcycling even helps to reduce CO2 emissions, because it takes less resources to repurpose existing materials than extracting, manufacturing, or recycling new ones.
Circular Economy Approach at Lignovations
Wood is an incredibly valuable resource that is often underutilized. In the pulp and paper industry, cellulose is used for creating paper, but lignin (which makes up 20-30% of wood) is often burnt or goes to waste. However, lignin could instead be used for many high-value applications such as wood coatings, textiles, food, packaging, cosmetics and many more .
Here at Lignovations we want to make sure that every part of the wood is used and not wasted. We approach this by unlocking the power of lignin for industrial applications and consumer products.
But what is lignin actually? Lignin is a complex organic polymer found in the cell walls of plants, particularly in wood. By creating multifunctional ingredients from upcycled lignin, Lignovations prevents lignin from being discarded or burnt and reduces the need for ingredients made from non-renewable resources.
For example, the upcycled lignin we use for our LignoGuard® products is sourced from residues of wood processing and certified local forests.
Lignovations’ contribution to a circular economy
There are many sustainability benefits of incorporating lignin into end products. First and foremost, it reduces the demand for virgin materials. Thus lessening the strain on natural resources. Additionally, lignin’s inherent functional properties make it an ideal ingredient for a wide range of applications. Examples include cosmetics, coatings, and packaging.
Furthermore, Lignovations‘ commitment to the circular economy extends beyond the use of lignin. We actively seek partnerships with other companies to establish closed-loop systems. By collaborating with suppliers and customers, we aim to ensure that their products are not only sustainable but also recyclable and reusable at the end of their life cycle.
Let’s make change happen together
Upcycling and the circular economy offer a path toward a more sustainable future, and we are dedicated to contributing to this goal. We are always on the lookout for new partners, new applications, and inspiring conversations. If you are curious about lignin and would love to work with us, please reach out.

Leonard Cohen on Leonard Cohen: Interviews and Encounters
Chicago Review Press, 1 abr. 2014 - 624 páginas
“A treasure trove for Leonard Cohen fans—the dazzling, wide-ranging collection of interviews that Jeff Burger has unearthed not only offers the songwriter’s story in his own words but reveals that Cohen’s language in conversation can be every bit as magnificent as his lyrics.” —Alan Light, author of The Holy or the Broken This book collects more than fifty interviews with Leonard Cohen, one of the most admired performers of the last half century, conducted worldwide between 1966 and 2012, and also includes a foreword by singer Suzanne Vega and eight pages of rarely seen photos. In it, the artist talks about “Bird on the Wire,” “Hallelujah,” “Famous Blue Raincoat,” and his other classic songs. He candidly discusses his famous romances, his years in a Zen monastery, his ill-fated collaboration with producer Phil Spector, and his long battle with depression. He also comments on his sometimes controversial poetry and novels, the financial crisis that nearly wiped out his savings, and his remarkable late-career resurgence. Here you’ll find interviews that first appeared in the New York Times and Rolling Stone, but also conversations that have not previously been printed in English, as well as many illuminating reminiscences that contributors supplied specifically for this definitive anthology. Jeff Burger is the editor of Springsteen on Springsteen. He has contributed to Barron’s, Family Circle, GQ, the Los Angeles Times, Reader’s Digest, and more than seventy-five other magazines, newspapers, and books. He lives in Ridgewood, New Jersey.

[I wrote the op-ed below in January of 2011. Reading this article, it still seems relevant. Noor Jahan Akbar, who is quoted in the piece, is correct: “A mind-set built over 100 years takes longer than 10 years to change.”]
As Americans assess our progress in the war in Afghanistan, we are right to question whether this war can actually be won. After ten years of struggle, Taliban fighters still operate unchecked in large parts of the country, and the Afghan government remains corrupt and weak. Indeed, even the White House has characterized the gains that have been made as “fragile and reversible.”
However, I think it is proper to view the war as entering a new and unavoidable phase in which gains can not solely be expected to be generated by the military. Our armed forces have already succeeded in clearing the Taliban from Afghanistan ’s major cities, as well as in making those population centers secure. Now, if the work of nation building is to continue, a large-scale civilian effort is needed to establish educational institutions in the areas that have been secured, and to encourage intellectual exchange between the people of our two nations.
With regard to the importance of establishing educational institutions, it is important to recognize that this is a war of ideas. Consequently, education is a critical means to success in Afghanistan. To understand why, consider that the number of enemies that we could potentially face in Afghanistan is limitless because what makes a person a Taliban is not who they are, but what they believe. The only way to defeat them, therefore, is to destroy their argument, and the only way to do that, is to articulate a better one.
For this purpose, a military presence alone is not enough. To address the non-military problems of misinformation and misunderstanding that abound in Afghanistan , non-military personnel are required. For example, as was recently suggested by Professor Dominic Tierney in the Los Angeles Times, Afghanistan needs administrators to establish cultural and educational institutions. It also needs teachers to confront its astonishingly low literacy rate, which Professor Tierney places at thirty percent – less than the literacy rate of America in 1650.
In addition to establishing an educational system, a relationship must be fostered between the people of the United States and Afghanistan, since a large part of the animosity that exists between us is premised on a false concept of who we actually are. It is unrealistic to expect this to be accomplished through the medium of a camouflaged Marine riding in an MRAP, shouldering an M16. Appreciation and respect for one another can only be achieved through direct civilian contact.
There are many ways in which this contact might occur. Instituting an exchange program whereby people from each nation can learn about one another might be one useful program. There are others, but the specifics of these do not really matter. What does matter is that the people of our two countries be allowed to engage with each other. This will, of course, be expensive, risky, and difficult, but it is also necessary if we are serious about establishing true democracy in Afghanistan .
Finally, there will be those who say that Afghanistan is already lost. The wiser course, they may argue, is to cut our losses and leave. My response is that, although we have spent years prosecuting this war, to what extent have we acted with the understanding that this never was a conventional war of battlefields and front lines, but an unconventional one of ideas? In other words, how much effort have we spent in enlightening, rather than merely securing, Afghanistan ?
“Ignorance is of a peculiar nature,” wrote Thomas Paine. Once dispelled, “it is impossible to re-establish it,” for ignorance is “the absence of knowledge; and though man may be kept ignorant, he cannot be made ignorant.”
The Taliban seek to keep the people of Afghanistan ignorant of who we really are and what we really stand for. If we commit to the education of the Afghan people – for example, by making a concerted effort to increase the literacy rate – reason can prevail over ignorance. Furthermore, if we show that we are invested in them by helping them build the institutional foundations that are necessary for their prosperity, we may come to respect, rather than fear, one another. In these accomplishments lie the seeds of victory.

The Pulse: Silence on magnetic refrigeration; Phosphate move in Australia; Airbus thinks again about battery
Here’s a question: whatever happened to one of the most exciting potential rare earth applications, one that could improve the environment immeasurably? I speak of magnetic refrigeration. Magnetic refrigeration is where your refrigerator keeps cold by using a magnet. That means no hydrofluorcarbons. If it works – and the technology still has to be commercialised – it will mean using gadolinium as the magnetic refrigerant agent.
It’s coming up a year since I raised this issue after it was mentioned at the 2012 rare earths conference in Sydney. Even then, it was mentioned only in passing.
Since then I have been waiting for some news, some development, some excitement. But there’s been almost nothing. Enter the term in Google and you get, by and large, material that is months and years out of date.
So, instead of telling you something I hope you don’t know, I am sending out a request for something I don’t know.
The only recent development – so far as I can find – was the publication in recent weeks of a patent filing by Japan’s Santoku Corp, located in Hyogo near Kobe, for a magnetic refrigeration device. Santoku is a manufacturer of rare earth allows (neodymium iron boron, or NdFeB, and samarium cobalt, or SmCo) for the magnetics market.
Also, coming up next month, there’s one brief session on the subject at a seminar being held by the American Physical Society. The International Institute of Refrigeration held a conference on the subject at Grenoble, France, last September.
Get our daily investorintel update
But, other than that, there seems to have been little publicity for whatever work is being done.
What is of interest is that magnetic refrigeration, if it works, could transform, and transform dramatically, the demand for gadolinium. There are sceptics who feel that the technology might only be used is specialist applications; but if magnetic refrigeration does take off in everyday products, then it could supplant magnets as the driving force of the REE business – even though, of course, it uses magnets. The latest figures for 2016 in terms of forecasts show gadolinium demand of 2,225 tonnes and global production of 2,750 tonnes, a surplus of 525 tonnes. That’s quite a surplus, but my point is that such a surplus could disappear beyond 2016 of this technology works and gas-free refrigerators and air-conditioners spread around the world.
Present refrigeration works by compressing and then decompressing gases. Magnetic refrigeration replaces these gases by bringing the magnet into close contact with metal and aligning unpaired electrons. The temperature of the metal rises; remove the metal, and the temperature quickly lowers again. As described by the Ames Laboratory, which did much of the pioneering work, when exposed to the magnetic field, the gadolinium heats up; water is used to draw the heat out of the metal and then a second stream of water is itself cooled by the gadolinium alloy and then circulated through the refrigerator’s cooling coils.
We should be hearing more about this and what is happening. If you know, post a comment on this item.
PHOSPHATE / RARE EARTHS: Here’s a way around the problem of a small exploration company trying to find enough money to develop projects without issuing so many shares they dilute existing stockholders: sell the projects, then claw back some parts of them.
This is what Krucible Metals (ASX:KRB) has done in Queensland, Australia. It has sold its main 13 phosphate tenements to fertilizer manufacturer Daton Group Australia (ASX:DTG) which wants a secure domestic supply of the feedstock for its fertilizer projects. Krucible, while holding a remaining 15 tenements, indicates it is proposing to negotiate with Daton to regain the non-phosphate rights – including a large yttrium-rich rare earths resource – on those it has sold off. .
Now with money about to go into its bank account, Krucible is planning a near $1 million exploration program for 2013. This will include Korella and its yttrium – assuming the agreement with Daton is reached – and two other projects with rare earths targets.
The attraction of Korella to Daton Group is the fact this deposit is the only high grade, direct-shipping resource close to existing infrastructure. Moreover, it’s near surface and ready to mine.
CRITICAL METALS: More problems for the lithium-ion battery – and its graphite and lithium inputs. According to Saturday’s The Financial Times, Airbus is considering ditching the lithium-ion battery on its proposed A350 airliner – the European maker’s response to the 787 Dreamliner. The plight of the 787, and pictures now available of a badly damaged lithium-ion battery that grounded the planes, has become a nightmare for Boeing, and the airlines which have started taking delivery of the Dreamliners. Japan Airlines, for example, has postponed what was going to be its inauguration this month of a Tokyo-Helsinki service operated by its new 787s.
The newspaper said Airbus had planned to use lithium-ion batteries for starting the aircraft’s auxiliary power unit and has now signalled it will revisit the alternative, the nickel-cadmium battery.

Charter 2000-Aliran hails the unwavering and principled stand taken by Malaysiakini not to pull down the two videos related to the controversial cow-head demonstration in Shah Alam recently.
Such a principled move is praiseworthy especially when the online newspaper is now under tremendous pressure from the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission to withdraw the said videos from public viewing.
This stand has great political significance for the journalists and their commitment to truth should not be allowed to be trampled upon by the powers-that-be that do not respect, let alone appreciate the fundamental values pertaining to justice, freedom of expression and the media’s responsibility to speak the truth and shame the devil. Additionally, the MCMC’s action makes a mockery of the Prime Minister Najib Razak’s recent guarantee that there will be no censorship of the Internet.
The act of metaphorically killing the messenger is equally disturbing in that it is aimed at intimidating conscientious journalists from reporting the truth without fear or favour. Needless to say, Malaysiakini merely reported what actually took place and exposed the racist and religiously insensitive remarks and actions of certain misguided individuals who claimed to have done what they did in the name of Islam and Muslims.

text: ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Free agent running back Maurice Jones-Drew is coming back home to Oakland after signing a three-year contract with the Raiders on Friday. Jones-Drew returns to his native Bay Area after spending his first eight seasons with Jacksonville and starring in college at UCLA. Jones-Drew joins quarterback Matt Schaub, defensive linemen Justin Tuck and LaMarr Woodley and receiver James Jones as successful veterans brought in by general manager Reggie McKenzie this off-season who are looking for a late career spark in Oakland. "Theres a ton of talent here," Jones-Drew said. "Reggie McKenzie and his staff have done a great job of piling on guys that are coming from programs that are winning and know what it takes. Granted, most of us have chips on our shoulders, at least I feel like I got (done) wrong. ... Its something thats going to drive us and push us to that next level." The Raiders also signed two defensive linemen, bringing back Pat Sims to a one-year deal and signing former Green Bay Packer C.J. Wilson. Sims played well in his first season in Oakland with two sacks and 41 tackles while starting all 16 games. He met with other teams before staying in Oakland, according to his agent Rick Smith. Wilson spent the past four seasons with Green Bay, recording 103 tackles and 3 1/2 sacks in 50 games with 11 starts. Jones-Drew had 8,071 yards rushing and 68 touchdowns for Jacksonville but was hampered by injuries the past two seasons. That led the Jaguars to let him test the market in free agency after his five-year, $31 million contract expired. The Jaguars thanked Jones-Drew for his work on the field and in the community. "Maurices toughness, determination and competitive spirit on the field served as a great example to all of his teammates," the team said in a statement. "Maurice has been one of the great Jaguars and he holds several team records for touchdowns that will remain for a long time. His place in Jaguars history is firmly established and we look forward to honouring him in Jacksonville at the appropriate time in the future." After more than two weeks on the open market, Jones-Drew finally found a new home in a familiar place. Jones-Drew grew up in the East Bay town of Antioch and starred at nearby De La Salle high school. Jones-Drew still spent his offseasons in the Bay Area and looked forward to being able to keep his family in one place and that his grandmother will now be able to see him play in person more often. Jones-Drew has gotten hurt the past two seasons when playing the Raiders in Oakland. He missed the final 10 games in 2012 after injuring his left foot at the Coliseum. He strained a tendon in the same foot when playing the Raiders this past season. After ranking second in the NFL with 4,321 yards rushing in a three-year span from 2009-11, Jones-Drew has been limited to 1,217 yards in 21 games the past two seasons. He averaged a career-low 3.4 yards per carry last season. That has led critics to argue that Jones-Drew has lost a step at age 29 and is on the downside of his career. The Raiders are hoping good health will help Jones-Drew return to the elite form he had before the injuries. "I have a ton left in my game," Jones-Drew said. "People tend to look at running backs and say, Oh, youre 29, you dont have anything left. ... I feel like I have a ton left in the tank and I get an opportunity to show that here in Oakland." The Raiders needed help at running back after allowing Jones-Drews former backup in Jacksonville, Rashad Jennings, leave through free agency to sign with the New York Giants. Oakland did bring back injury-prone starter Darren McFadden on a one-year deal but has no other proven tailbacks on the roster. The Raiders are hoping last years sixth-round pick, Latavius Murray, can contribute after spending his entire rookie year on injured reserve. McFadden has missed 29 games over his six-year career with injuries and has averaged 3.3 yards per carry the past two seasons. Jones-Drew said he was told there will be an open competition at running back between him and McFadden. "He kind of has a leg up on me because hes been in this offence already before," Jones-Drew said. "My job is to come in and to compete to play. We both have something to prove and that will help us all out in the long run, competing and being able to push each other." The Raiders also re-signed defensive tackle Pat Sims for one year according to the players agent, and signed former Green Bay Packers defensive lineman C.J. Wilson on Friday.

The central role of the multifunctional protein nephrin within the macromolecular complex forming the glomerular slit diaphragm is well established, but the mechanisms linking the slit diaphragm to the cytoskeleton and to the signaling pathways involved in maintaining the integrity of the glomerular filter remain incompletely understood. Here, we report that nephrin interacts with the bicarbonate/chloride transporter kidney anion exchanger 1 (kAE1), detected by yeast two-hybrid assay and confirmed by immunoprecipitation and co-localization studies. We confirmed low-level glomerular expression of kAE1 in human and mouse kidneys by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence microscopy. We observed less kAE1 in human glomeruli homozygous for the NPHS1FinMaj nephrin mutation, whereas kAE1 expression remained unchanged in the collecting duct. We could not detect endogenous kAE1 expression in NPHS1FinMaj podocytes in primary culture, but heterologous re-introduction of wild-type nephrin into these podocytes rescued kAE1 expression. In kidneys of Ae1−/− mice, nephrin abundance was normal but its distribution was altered along with the reported kAE1-binding protein integrin-linked kinase (ILK). Ae1−/− mice had increased albuminuria with glomerular enlargement, mesangial expansion, mesangiosclerosis, and expansion of the glomerular basement membrane. Glomeruli with ILK-deficient podocytes also demonstrated altered AE1 and nephrin expression, further supporting the functional interdependence of these proteins. These data suggest that the podocyte protein kAE1 interacts with nephrin and ILK to maintain the structure and function of the glomerular basement membrane.

Innovative modular precast core
A 33 level building providing 300-room hotel along with shops and offices is planned for the 1254-square-metre site running from 595 to 599 Little Collins Street, less than a block from Melbourne’s biggest transport hub.
Taking advantage of builder Hickory’s appetite for precast and modular structure, the building features an innovative modular precast core consisting of large monolithic precast blocks that are vertically stacked and dowelled together, providing the strength and stiffness required to support a building of this size in a fraction of the time required to construct and in-situ core.
While the first 8 office floors are created using traditional post-tensioned slabs, the remaining hotel floors are created using precast concrete planks that form part of Hickory’s HBS system. These are delivered to site with façade panels and services already attached allowing them to be rapidly installed on site before being fastened together using post tensioned cables thereby creating a high quality floor plate in a fraction of the time required for a traditional concrete build.

In short, this assessment drops light on the market size and revenue share which are motivated by numerous market drivers, together with a clear insight about challenges that might create a blockage for the development of Car Rentals.

Daily headlines tout digital disruption, the ability of new technology to impact many businesses, accelerating development cycles, increasing efficiency and providing more service opportunities. The traditional rental car market is entering a new era. The tried-and-true business models developed in the past 100 years are under siege. New technology and the growing sharing economy have enabled suppliers to build up new business and distribution models.
The change can impact a vendor in many ways. Traditionally, vendors have competed in areas like type of vehicle and price. They have offered high cost, luxury rentals, which appealed to individuals with the disposable income to afford them.
Market changes have presented suppliers with new challenges. The traditional boundaries are blurring, and suppliers must determine their business focuses. The success of Uber illustrates the potential impact on car renters today. Traditional auto renters must figure out their value-add and role in this rapidly changing marketplace. Information technology has also been in a period of profound change. Cloud computing is becoming the new data center, with central resources no longer always located on the customers site, but instead located in the companys data center. Mobility makes it easier for customers to book reservations. A rental market with high demands and significant competitive
pressures is rapidly emerging. Not all will prove viable. Success is not guaranteed.
An ever-increasing number of companiesboth startups and established enterprisesare focusing on the subject of mobility and often with it they pair electric vehicles. The market is emerging, evolving, and fraught with challenges, such as charging these vehicles. New, innovative approaches and new concepts are developing. Each of these ideas need a testing ground to be tried, improved and developed for everyday use. Meanwhile, car renters need to maintain their existing businessand its revenue streams. Consequently, they are moving in many directions, some of which seem contradictory. What the market looks like in a decade will be significantly different from how it appears today."
Car rental includes four main categories: compact, executives, SUV and hybrid/electric. Compact cars are small, low cost vehicles that carry a small number of passengers. Executive models are plusher and carry more individuals. Individuals offer renters a mix of comfort and size. Hybrid/electric vehicles do not run solely on gasoline.
This report examines the technologies, markets and factors influencing the markets for car rental systems. Markets are forecast based on historical activity and current opportunities, technical advances and challenges, and various geographic subsets of the market: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and South America.
The forecasts presented are for the total available markets. Discussion is provided that compares actual revenues with market potential. Markets are broken down by car type and then discussed within the context of technology trends. A detailed analysis of the market potential is used as a basis for estimating the world markets for these products. Thorough analyses are carried out of car rental practices, along with trends toward the uptake of solution costs, emerging standards and common practices.
Prime decision makers in the project chain who select the type of cars are identified. Factors influencing the requirements and purchases for the systems are examined, as are national and international responses to global challenges.
In this report, the car rental market is segmented into four areas: compact, executive, SUV and hybrid/electric. The sales are then broken up by geographic areas. A section focused on ride sharing and its impact across the globe is also included in the report.
The car rental market is fragmented. In North America and Europe, it is a mature market that is growing at a low single-digit rate. Competition is fierce in established market and increasing in less established ones, which will spark innovation and new use of technology for competitive advantage.

For once, a study with a substantial sample size!
We know that genes play a role in how well children do in school, but there are gaps in our knowledge: is this the same for different topics in school? And can this be explained largely by intelligence, or do other genetic factors contribute?
Just linking genes and behaviours is still an area of furious debate, let alone figuring out the exact mechanisms by which those genes cause the behaviours in question. Hopefully studies like this one, that take us closer to identifying genetically-influenced traits, can also get us closer to figuring out the answer to that question.
Generalizing, look at animal behaviour for some insight. Take a typical breed to see what attributes it has. Labs are pretty consistent – loyal, happy, but destructive if you don’t keep them active. Bernese Mountain dogs for me have been similar to labs, but shorter life spans. Dachsunds have a lot of personality… I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone describe corgi’s as smart 😉

Crimestoppers’ Police Anti-Corruption and Abuse Reporting Service
Main article content
North Wales Police is backing the Police Anti-Corruption and Abuse Reporting Service, that has been launched by the independent charity Crimestoppers.
The service provides an anonymous and confidential route to report concerns, online or via a dedicated phone line, about serving officers, staff and volunteers who are suspected of being corrupt or committing serious abuse.
The reporting service sits alongside existing complaints procedures at North Wales Police for the public and police employees to report and will only deal with corruption and serious abuse.
The Police Anti-Corruption and Abuse Reporting Service covers information relating to officers, staff and volunteers who:
Provide information or influence in return for money or favours
Use their policing position for personal advantage - whether financial or otherwise
Cross professional boundaries or abuse their position for sexual purposes
Abuse or control their partner, or those they have a relationship with
Engage in racist, homophobic, misogynistic or disablist conduct, on or off duty, in person or online
Chief Constable Amanda Blakeman KPM said: "The vast majority of officers, staff and volunteers act professionally and with integrity in the fulfilment of their duties to protect the public. We must take tough action to purge policing of those responsible for wrongdoing, for now and for the future.
“We do not underestimate the impact recent events have had on trust and confidence in policing, including the appalling findings of the Baroness Casey and Lady Angiolini reports.
“As the All-Wales Police Lead for Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) which also includes domestic abuse and sexual violence (VAWDASV), and as the lead for British Association for Women in Policing (BAWP) I have zero tolerance towards perpetrators of such offences.
"I have been clear that for those who do not share our values and high standards there is no place for them in our organisation. Those individuals in the minority not only undermine the fantastic work that goes on every single day but they also erode the confidence placed in us by our communities.
"The Police Anti-Corruption and Abuse Reporting Service is another tool in our armoury that will help us to rid those individuals from our midst and enable us to operate with the trust and confidence of the public."

The MD8 & MIDI
MIDI sequencers and MIDI controlled musical instruments have become essential tools for
modern recording. It's common these days not to record MIDI instruments until the ﬁnal
mixdown. This has the beneﬁt of freeing up tracks for acoustic sounds and reduces the need
for recorders with many tracks. The MD8 is ideal for recording vocal, guitar, and other acous-
tic sounds, and can easily be integrated into a MIDI system using either MTC (MIDI Time-
code) or MIDI Clock.
MTC and MIDI Clock are MIDI messages used to synchronize MIDI devices. The MD8 only
transmits these messages, it does not receive them. So the MD8 must be used as the master
device in a synchronized MIDI system. This means that the MIDI sequencer responds to
MTC or MIDI Clock information coming from the MD8. The MD8 does not receive MTC
or MIDI Clock from the sequencer.
The MD8 can be remotely controlled, however, using MIDI Machine Control (MMC) com-
mands, yet those commands do not include synchronization information.
In some cases it may be necessary to use the MD8's MIDI THRU connector for MIDI daisy
chains. This connector retransmits the MIDI messages the MD8 receives via its MIDI IN
Using the MD8 in a Synchronized MIDI System
The MD8's MIDI OUT jack should be connected to the MTC input of your MIDI sequencer
if you are using MTC, or a normal MIDI IN if you are using MIDI Clock. The MD8 transmits
MTC or MIDI Clock during play, record, and rehearsal. When the MIDI sequencer receives
MTC or MIDI Clock from MD8, it locates to the same time position as MD8 and plays along
in synchronization. To control the MD8 using MMC messages, connect its MIDI IN socket
to the MIDI OUT socket of the device that transmits MMC messages.
Each MD8 song starts at 00:00.00. So you should start the MIDI sequencer song at
00:00:00:00. Your MIDI sequencer may allow you to specify a timecode offset. This allows
you to start the MIDI sequencer song at a different time.
About Tempo Maps
For use with MIDI Clock, a Tempo Map programmed using the Song Tempo function allows
you to specify song tempo and meter (time signature). Each Tempo Map allows up to 26
tempo and 26 meter changes. Tempo and meter changes are organized in steps from A to Z.
You can insert and delete steps as you like, and they are automatically sorted. If your song
does not contain any tempo or meter changes, the Tempo Map contains only a tempo and
meter setting on the ﬁrst beat of the ﬁrst measure, which is step A.
Each song can have its own tempo map, which is stored automatically.
A Tempo Map Chart is provided on page 82 to help you organize your Tempo Maps. Please
feel free to photocopy it.

Drake held a Young Money reunion show with Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj on Saturday night (August 6) in Toronto. The show, part of the rapper’s October World Weekend shows, marked the first time in eight years that the former label mates appeared on stage together.
Videos by American Songwriter
Originally scheduled for earlier in the week, the concert was rescheduled after Drake tested positive for COVID-19. The new concert opened up with some levity as the video screen stated “Unfortunately, Lil Wayne had some troubles at the border. Luckily, Drake runs the border.” Lil Wayne then took the stage to deliver a slew of hits alongside his fellow rappers.
“I’m standing onstage with the greatest rapper of all time,” Drake said, motioning to Lil Wayne. “And I’m standing onstage with the other greatest rapper of all time, she’s over there with the pink hair. By the way, like, are these bitches serious? Like, nobody can fuck with Nicki. She’s like the originator—it starts here, ends here, all that shit.”
Minaj and Drake then delivered their own hit-filled sets with Minaj performing some older cuts “Beez in the Trap” and “Up All Night.”
“When you’re at the top, and you always remember your motherfucking family, that shows your character,” Minaj said. “One of the most duplicated, imitated rappers in the world.”
Lil Wayne closed out the show with an exciting announcement for fans, “I’m working on Tha Carter VI, coming soon.”

Trepida & Astrin Grav Vehicle Family
The Trepida & Astrin Grav Vehicle Family is a group of Imperial vehicles developed from the start of the 12th Century and deployed from 1109 onwards. All were designed to be deployed from orbit using a common Rapid Deployment Aeroshell.
This family was initially developed as a group of TL–14 vehicles that could be deployed cheaply and effectively. The two initial members, Trepida (Grav Tank) and Astrin (APC), were supplemented by the TL–15 Meson Artillery Vehicle (MAV).
The family was quickly developed. The Trepida saw the initial version renamed the Trepida I was up-gunned with a TL–15 Fusion Gun transforming the vehicle into a Tank-Destroyer (Trepida IIA) (shown above), and then making various alterations to range and ammunition storage based on combat experience (Trepida IIB).
By 1150s, the Trepida I was becoming obsolete, and the Regency Army sought to create a Trepida III at TL–15. This was deployed in 1156 as the Norris Grav Tank - A standard variant - and the Norris Command Grav Tank. These were then issued to increase the firepower of Jump Troops units such as the 3122nd Assault Infantry Regiment (Armoured), Orbital Cavalry (e.g. 317th Aero-Mech Brigade) and Armoured Lift Infantry (e.g. 85th Lift Infantry Brigade (Armoured)).
The initial Astrin APC deployed in 1112 (Shown above) was a turretless "Battlefield Taxi", but this was rapidly discovered to be a mistake and a turret added in 1116. This was also known as the Astrin APC with a temporary designation of Astrin/T APC while the initial production run was upgraded.
The Meson Artillery Vehicle (MAV) was deployed as a combat effective vehicle from the first. Some minor variations of internal electronics occurred as time progressed and component manufacturers changed, but these were always backwards compatible and made no effective difference to the vehicle's characteristics.


Railhammer’s new Bob Balch signature pickup is based on the company’s Chisel model, but has a brass cover and brass baseplate, which reduce output and treble response slightly while enhancing overall midrange.
“The result is a thick tone with clarity that cuts through even with heavy fuzz, and is warm and articulate in clean settings,” said Railhammer’s Joe Naylor. The neck version has reduced output for increased clarity and tone/volume balance with the bridge. Railhammer pickups offer universal spacing, four-conductor wiring with independent ground, and height-tapered rails. Go to www.railhammer.com.

When we think about celebrities, we tend to focus on their achievements, their wealth, and their fame. If we think about the other people in their life, it’s usually their significant other or perhaps their famous best friends. However, celebrities all have two parents just like the rest of us, and it’s actually incredibly interesting to see where our favorite stars came from! All these celebs have hit the jackpot when it comes to the gene pool, but some are the spitting image of their parents while some of the others share no resemblance at all. Genetics are pretty incredible!
Selena Gomez hasn’t had the easiest relationship with her parents, and being in the spotlight has probably made it much worse than it would have been otherwise! She was born when her mother Mandy was 16 years old, and her parents divorced only five years later. Her father was never a big part of her life, but her mother became her manager. In 2014, Selena made headlines when she ‘blindsided’ Mandy by firing her as her manager and hiring an official company instead. She didn’t handle it in the best way, but you can’t blame her for wanting some freedom and independence!

President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has departed the country for Schloss Elmau in Upper Bavaria Germany to attend the 41st summit meeting of the heads of state and government of the Group of Seven (G7).The meeting, which takes place from June 7 to 8, will discuss the global economy, foreign security and development policy, the UN conferences to be held later this year as well as the post-2015 agenda, an Executive Mansion statement said.President Sirleaf will be in attendance with several other African leaders who have been invited to grace the occasion. This is in determination to support African nations in their reform efforts and consequently strengthen peace and security, growth and sustainable development on the continent.African heads of state and others attending alongside President Sirleaf include the newly inaugurated Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, Senegal’s President and current ECOWAS chair Macky Sall, Ethiopia’s Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn, and Tunisia’s President Beji Caid Essebsi. Together with them, the G7 leaders will engage in a wide-range dialogue on Africa and global policy issues, the statement said.Also meeting the G7 leaders on the second day will be the chairpersons of international organizations which include: Chair of the African Union Commission (AUC), Dlamini Zuma; International Labor Organization (ILO) Director-General, Guy Ryder; Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Christine Lagarde; Secretary-General of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), José Ángel Gurría; President of the World Bank (WB), Jim Kim; Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO), Roberto Azevêdo; and the Secretary General of the United Nations (UN), Ban Ki-moon.However this year’s G7 Summit, which is also referred to as the German Presidency, falls in a watershed year for international cooperation. This applies to the UN summit to adopt the post-2015 development agenda, to the conference on financing for development and to the planned climate agreement that is to be adopted at the UN Climate Change Conference at the end of the year in Paris.G7 leaders have indicated that at this event, they want to send a strong signal of credibility and support in this respect.The G7 States also aim to further empower women. Women’s active participation in economic life around the world will reduce poverty and inequality, foster growth and thus encourage social cohesion, with German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, pointing out that an important precondition is to give women and girls the chance to obtain vocational and professional qualifications, especially in developing countries.The G7 nations also want to use the summit occasion to discuss how to make global health systems more resilient. “The Ebola epidemic was a wake-up call for all of us,” said the Chancellor and pointed to an initiative for improved crisis management.It is reported that with the President of Ghana John Dramani Mahama, and the Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg, Angela Merkel has submitted to the United Nations proposals for better crisis management to respond to global health emergencies.The summit in Schloss Elmau will also look at the use of antibiotics. The World Health Organization aims to ensure, through a global action plan, that life-saving antibiotics remain effective. At the start of May the German government adopted its own antimicrobial resistance strategy, reports say.Meanwhile, G7 is a group consisting of the Finance Ministers and central bank governors of seven major advanced economies such as Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, United Kingdom and the United States, while the European Union (EU) is also represented within the G7. It is also attended by the heads of states and government of these nations.Meanwhile, while President Sirleaf is away from the country, the Minister of National Defense, Mr. Brownie Samukai, will serve as Acting Chairman of the Cabinet in consultation with Vice President Joseph N. Boakai, Sr. She is expected back on Wednesday, June 9.Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)
While you’re here, we’d like you to consider subscribing to Pistols Firing and becoming a PFB+ member. It’s a big ask from us to you, but it also comes with a load of benefits like ad-free browsing (ads stink!), access to our premium room in The Chamber and monthly giveaways.The other thing it does is help stabilize our business into the future. As it turns out, sending folks on the road to cover games and provide 24/7 Pokes coverage like the excellent article you just read costs money. Because of our subscribers, we’ve been able to improve our work and provide the best OSU news and community anywhere online. Help us keep that up. The legend behind Marcus Arroyo continues to grow during his time in Stillwater. He’s been known to be an excellent closer on the recruiting trail (see: Chuba Hubbard, JD King) and he continues to impress with his knowledge of the game, even beyond the X’s and O’s.He talked with Robert Allen of gopokes.com a little last week about the progression of the running game, and also touched on some of the hot button topics like Chris Carson and the arrival of Barry J.His takes were awesome.“I think the one thing we have to be careful about,” Arroyo said, ” is building statues sometimes for something that hasn’t happened yet.”Striking right where OSU fans are most vulnerable. After the Cowboys landed highly touted running back Chris Carson last year, who flipped from Georgia to OSU, he quickly drew comparisons to Adrian Peterson (even from teammates). But Arroyo knows the jump even from junior college to D1 is a big move.“I’ll use Chris Carson as an example,” Arroyo continued. “A junior college kid coming into his first year with no summer training is not much different than a true freshman (like Jeff Carr) from a high school position.”So maybe Chris Carson had way too high of expectations placed on him going into his first year of D1 football. And Arroyo was smart to recognize that, and, just as coaches tend to do, limit the expectations in the preseason. He knows first hand the pace of Division I and seems to be an excellent fit at his coaching position to ease guys in.And of course, he talked Barry J., too.“Having experience is so monumental at the running back position, because if there’s a guy inexperienced with 65,000 people when the lights come on, you can’t put that in front of them on a Monday through Thursday practice. Fortunately Barry has been through that. He’s been through a very successful program, comes from a good background. Behaviorally and mentally are the big things he’s going to bring to the table. Not to undermine his physical abilities, it’s just knowing how important football is, not having trouble off the field, no distractions… He may not say it out loud, but I think there’s an emotional investment for him that’s really special.”Pretty cool interview with the second year running backs coach. You can listen to the entire interview here.

Wednesday 12 July was a year on from one of the most infamous incidents of 2016. And while it was the date that Theresa May officially became PM, it was also the anniversary of something else. The now-infamous ‘brickgate’ saga…
One year on
As The Canary reported last year, Wallasey MP Angela Eagle’s staff called the police after a suspected brick was thrown through a window in the building where her office is. At the time, the perpetrators were widely thought by Eagle and the corporate media to be pro-Corbyn ‘thugs‘. The incident happened at the height of the last Labour leadership election. Eagle, who was fighting to win the leadership battle herself, said at the time:
They are being done in his name and he needs to get control of the people who are supporting him and make certain that this behaviour stops and stops now. It is bullying, it has absolutely no place in politics in the UK and it needs to end.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn responded by saying:
As someone who has also received death threats this week and previously, I am calling on all Labour Party members and supporters to act with calm and treat each other with respect and dignity, even where there is disagreement. I utterly condemn any violence or threats, which… have no place in our politics.
Brickgate falls apart
But since the incident, people have raised questions about what actually happened; and about whether it was an attack on Eagle and her office at all. This is because:
- The window was not actually her office, but a communal stairwell.
- There was already non-political vandalism in the surrounding area.
- Just two days after the ‘attack’, the campaign group Fathers for Justice held a rooftop protest on the same building.
- Wirral Council has classed the area, and specifically the office building, as being a “hot spot” for anti-social behaviour.
- The police confirmed there was no evidence a brick had broken the window.
- Police have never charged anyone over the incident.
Then, in February this year, the blog site Wirral In It Together sent a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). The ICO said Merseyside Police had told it:
The person who logged the incident [‘Brickgate’] reported ‘just one big window in the hallway’ [was attacked]… They added that ‘The person reporting the damage is likely to have known if any damage had been caused to the constituency office window, but no such damage was reported to the police’.
So it would appear that Eagle and her staff did not even report the incident as being an attack on her office; but as an attack on the communal building where it is situated.
Maybe Eagle believed it was “Momentum thugs” that smashed the communal window, as Labour MP Ben Bradshaw called the perpetrators, without evidence. She may have been genuinely afraid for her safety. No one is denying this. But the incident is still pertinent, in light of a parliamentary debate on Wednesday 12 July about the abuse of MPs.
Numerous MPs have suffered appalling abuse. As The Guardian documented, the likes of Labour’s Diane Abbott and Luciana Berger and the Conservative Party’s Ameet Jogia and Anna Soubry have been subject to some awful treatment, merely because of their political beliefs. And while abuse of this nature should not be tolerated, ‘brickgate’ should not be tolerated, either. Because when an incident of what may well have been mindless vandalism is cynically twisted for political purposes, it degrades politics. It also makes a mockery of the real victims of abuse.
So Brickgate may be a year old, but it is certainly not forgotten.
