Addressing social gathering delegates, Mnangagwa mentioned: “I’ve since obtained the report of the Fee of Inquiry into the sale of city State land, which revealed obvious excesses and acts of corruption by land barons and their cohorts. As a celebration, we won’t settle for a scenario the place our individuals stay in squalid circumstances 39 years after independence, on account of being swindled out of their hard-earned cash by these legal components.”
He pledged to make sure all individuals implicated within the audit report have been delivered to e-book.
“These implicated within the fee report have to be delivered to e-book with out worry or favour. We’re a disciplined, principled and moral social gathering. We at all times advance the rights and pursuits of the vast majority of the individuals,” he mentioned.
Muchinguri, who can also be Defence minister, assured Mnangagwa that he remained Zanu PF’s sole candidate for the 2023 common elections and that the social gathering was already in election mode.
“You’re the sole candidate for 2023 and this has been endorsed by the slogan ED:2023 Pfee! This may unfold throughout the nation. Your individuals are already in election mode, they’re already campaigning for 2023,” she mentioned.

SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL – The business center of Brazil, São Paulo, may be known for its relentless bumper-to-bumper traffic and rows of office buildings that stretch as far as the eye can see, but Paulistanos also know how to unwind. The concrete jungle’s endless array of cultural offerings are the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, so for those visiting this month, we round up three of April’s must-see events.
For the third year in a row, some of the biggest names in music will showcase both classics and new hits in the 2014 São Paulo Lollapalooza festival. Originally conceived by alternative rock legend and Jane’s Addiction frontman Perry Farrell, the two-day spectacle will bring together as many as fifty Brazilian and international acts at the beginning of April.
April 5th’s twelve-hour affair will begin with the soulful sensation from New Zealand, Lorde, and her instant classic, “Royals,” followed by hip hop prince Kid Cudi and The Strokes’ former frontman-gone-solo, the stylish Julian Casablancas. Indie rock fans will be more than pleased with Imagine Dragons and Phoenix, while electronic music connoisseurs will vibrate to the tunes of the UK’s hit DJ duo, Disclosure.
The first night of the festivities will close with a big rock-and-roll bang, courtesy of English band Muse and American legends Nine Inch Nails. With over fifteen million albums sold worldwide, festival veterans Muse will serve up some of their greatest hits: “Time is Running Out” and “Knights of Cydonia.” Industrial pioneers Nine Inch Nails promise nothing other than loud riffs, strong drums and powerful vocals from the legendary Trent Reznor.
The festival’s second day will be filled with a who’s who of today’s indie rock scene with Jake Bugg and Vampire Weekend. Alternative rock kings, The Pixies, will round out the festivities, alongside new wave visionaries from New Order, before indie darlings Arcade Fire and Soundgarden’s grunge rhythms loudly bid festival-goers adieu.
What: 2014 Lollapalooza Festival
When: April 5-6, 2014
Where: Autódromo de Interlagos, São Paulo
Entrance: 2-day pass R$270-R$540, 1-day pass R$145-R$270
The month with the city’s biggest music festival will also include São Paulo’s largest art fair, SP-Arte/2014. Now in its tenth edition and with works from over 140 art galleries, the fair is one of Latin America’s most important events in the art industry and an unmissable destination for artists, curators and art lovers alike.
Expect works from some of the most important galleries in the world, such as Van de Weghe Fine Art’s pieces from artists Jean-Michel Basquiat, Alexander Calder and Andy Warhol.
When: April 3-6, 2014
Where: Av. Pedro Álvares Cabral, s/n, Portão 3 – Ibirapuera, São Paulo
It was the great American writer Ernest Hemingway who once said that “wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world,” so take a cue from the literary genius all the way to São Paulo’s Expovinis Brasil 2014, the city’s international wine exposition. The event – touted as Latin America’s largest exposition of this kind – will feature 432 wine producers from around the world, five thousand different labels and more than sixty thousand bottles for sampling. This is a mandatory event for those in the food industry as well as those who simply enjoy a good glass of (free) wine.
What: Expovinis Brasil 2014
When: April 23-24, 2014
Where: Expo Center Norte – Pavilhão Azul, São Paulo

This excursion offers you an amazing opportunity to discover the Palais Royal district and relive Emile Zola's novel "The Ladies' Paradise," as you discover one of the last Parisian establishments specializing in trimmings and haberdashery.
What to Expect
Trim making includes all kinds of thread products used in the past for ceremonial dress and now used for interior decoration. Specific to France is the creation of a Guild of Trim Makers in the 16th century. As trimmings are costly ornaments, tassels and braids, as well as fringes and pompoms, have long been signs of social distinction, notably among the aristocratic and luxury fashion accessories in the court of the king. Haberdashery, on the other hand, is all items used to make clothing and adornment, such as thread, needles, buttons, ribbons and velvet, etc. The business recommended for your visit was set up in the middle of the 19th century in the old Hatters and Milliners district. In order to supply them, wholesalers of grosgrains, ribbons and felts originally from the Lyon region established themselves here.
The shop therefore began to specialize in the sale of these goods. 200 years later, this business is still open and offers a myriad of articles and other accessories that immediately evoke Zola's Paris. You will meet the manager of this establishment who will show you the different qualities and materials used in embroidery and hats some of which are no longer in existence.
This tour will take place around the Palais Royal. Passing by the Comédie-Française and the Palais gardens, the home of Philippe d'Orleans with its 18th century courtyard and your city guide will touch on the history of costumes and Parisian fashion while taking you to some iconic places.

Patients with respiratory failure and cormobid respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) have a higher risk of disease complications, according to a study published recently in the journal Frontiers in Medicine. However, the 28-day mortality for patients with respiratory failure was the same regardless of RSV infection.
RSV affects children and adults and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Presentation is multifaceted, with some children and adults experiencing symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection while premature infants and older adults may experience symptoms of a severe lower respiratory tract infection.
This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes, treatments, and respiratory complications for patients who have both an RSV infection and respiratory failure.
This study was conducted in a tertiary care, university-affiliated teaching hospital in Thailand. Patients who were admitted to the medical ward and needed mechanical ventilation support for more than 24 hours due to respiratory failure between January 2014 and July 2019 were considered for the study. Patients aged ≥18 years who had respiratory samples analyzed were enrolled with RSV infection confirmation based on positive findings of respiratory pathogen testing.
Electronic health records were used to collect data on participant characteristics, clinical features, disease severity, hospital courses, and outcomes. Respiratory failure was determined as the respiratory system’s inability to meet requirements for oxygenation, ventilation, and metabolic demand. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality, with ventilator-dependent days, hospital length of stay (LOS), tracheostomy after respiratory failure, and hospital death being secondary outcomes.
There were 335 patients included in the final analysis, of which 67 were in the RSV group and 268 in the non-RSV group. No significant differences were found in the baseline characteristics of the 2 groups (mean age 72.7 and 71.0 years; men, 46.3% and 47.4%, respectively). The RSV group had a higher rate of community-acquired pneumonia and health care–associated pneumonia was more common in the non-RSV group.
Within the RSV group, there was a 38.8% 28-day mortality rate compared with 37.1% in the non-RSV group, and no significant differences were found in mortality rates, ventilator-dependent days, or LOS. Patients in the RSV group were more often given bronchodilator drugs (98.5% vs 60.8%) and ribavirin (80.6% vs 0.7%). Ventilator-associated pneumonia (52.2% vs 33.8%) and lung atelectasis (10.4% vs 3%) were more common in the patients in the RSV group compared with the non-RSV group.
Higher use of ribavirin and tracheostomy were seen in nonsurvivors vs survivors (95.8% vs 72.1%; 20.8% vs 4.7%). In-hospital death was associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (relative risk [RR], 4.25; 95% CI, 1.58-11.42), ventilator-associated pneumonia (RR, 10.21; 95% CI, 4.83-21.59), and prolonged ventilator support (RR, 2.31; 95% CI, 1.03-5.21). RSV was not associated with increased hospital death.
Among potential study limitations the investigators note the observational design which cannot control for potential confounders, and mortality rate in the non-RSV group may not be able to reflect the rate of patients with respiratory failure patients in general practice. Organ failures also should be considered for mortality rate.
The researchers concluded that 28-day mortality was similar in patients infected and not infected with RSV. Complications, however, were more frequent in patients with an RSV infection.

Tokyo, Japan (CNN) -- The Japanese government has ordered repairs to seats aboard planes operating in several countries after accusing the manufacturer of falsifying safety test results.
Koito Industries Ltd. falsified fire- and shock-resistance test results in the design and manufacturing of its aircraft seats, the Japanese Transport Ministry said in a news release.
The company also failed to obtain the necessary approval from transportation authorities for the material it used in the back of seats, near the food tray drop-down, the ministry said.
The problem affects 150,000 seats.
The ministry has ordered Koito to fix the seats and establish quality-control measures.
The affected airlines operate in Japan, the United States, China and Singapore. The seats are mainly aboard Boeing and Airbus planes, The New York Times quoted Koito President Takashi Kakewaga as saying Monday in Tokyo.
Several airlines, including Continental Airlines, Singapore Airlines and All Nippon Airways, have postponed introducing aircraft recently because of delays in getting seats from Koito, the newspaper said.
Koito is Japan's largest supplier of aircraft seats, manufacturing them for 32 carriers worldwide. Koito also manufactures and sells electrical equipment and is involved in housing construction.
Toyota owns 20 percent of the shares of Koito Industries' parent company. The aircraft seat problem follows troubles with Toyota automobiles that have tarnished the company's image.
On Tuesday, Toyota's president apologized as he announced the global recall of more than 400,000 of the automaker's 2010 hybrid models, including the popular Prius, for problems in their anti-lock braking systems.
In addition, two problems involving gas pedals caused Toyota to recall 8.1 million vehicles worldwide since November.
CNN's Yoko Wakatsuki contributed to this report.

It was INSANE. But no one voted for that. Instead, readers focused on the impressive remodel of our local library, and the Sculpture Tour, which has quickly become a cornerstone of the arts offerings around town. To further reinforce stereotypes of artists and creative types, we also got SUPER excited that most of us gave thumbs-ups to legal marijuana.

id Hang out with Samira Wiley Too. wow.
Thats a typo.. Its best supporting guest actress in a drama series.
I could not get past the first episode of that show. I don't like to be miserable. It's a comedy?


Quick, name a form of racing that boasts the support of no fewer than five major manufacturers, with more looking to follow suit. One with a forward-thinking, technologically sophisticated set of rules, world-famous team owners and races that take place in major cities such as Berlin, Paris and New York.
Formula One? Nope. NASCAR? Also incorrect. Ditto for Le Mans or MotoGP or rallying or drag racing or even jet-plane racing. The correct answer: the FIA Formula E Championship.
Now in the midyear break of its third season, the series is gaining in the collective consciousness and has lured Audi, BMW and Jaguar into the fold. It’s also staking a claim to being the most important form of motorsport when it comes to sustainability.
To be clear, Formula E has faced challenges and has its detractors. The cars are 100-per-cent electric, so the only noise they produce is a persistent whine from the lithium-ion battery packs and the squealing of the Michelin tires as they round corners. The sound of performance cars is a constant theme with manufacturers and the sole reason cars now feature “doctored” exhaust notes.
Also, while the single-seater formula cars may resemble Formula One cars, there is a disparity in terms of performance. The hybrid powertrain of a modern Grand Prix car develops more than 900 total system horsepower. The electric powertrain of the Formula E car churns out around 250 horsepower. Top speed in an F1 car is 375 kilometres an hour; the all-electric series tops out at 225.
But the most glaring weakness of the Formula E car is a familiar one for battery-powered vehicles: range. Drivers have to enter the pits mid-race to swap cars because the battery packs cannot last the full 50-minute race. But a major boost is planned for the 2018-19 season, when battery supplier McLaren Applied Technologies (a division of that McLaren) will deliver a single-charge pack that goes the distance.
As the championship roared into its third season, other F1 manufacturers involved in Formula E, or looking to become involved, included Williams, Renault, Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz.
Mainstream manufacturers and race teams aside, the field of Formula E competitors, partners and sponsors also includes celebrities and fascinating technology companies.
Sponsored by Citroën luxury brand DS, the DS Virgin Racing team was formed by Richard Branson. Actor Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the backers of the Venturi Formula E team. Another team, NextEV, is a startup manufacturer of all-electric vehicles; its NIO EP9 recently set the Nuerburgring lap record for EVs.
Yet another startup, Faraday Future, is the title sponsor and technology partner of Dragon Racing. The association between the team and the EV manufacturer, which stole headlines at CES (formerly named the Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas, is set to grow stronger over the next three seasons.
“Motor racing is one of the most extreme and challenging environments in the auto industry,” says Richard Otto, corporate communications specialist with Faraday Future. “Ultimately, we will take what we learn from Formula E and transfer that knowledge directly into future FF technologies and production cars.”
Meanwhile, motorsport mainstay Audi has shifted much of its focus away from Le Mans – where the fastest cars are fossil fuel-electric hybrids – to all-electric racing. Audi has been involved in Formula E from Season 1, winning its inaugural race in 2013, but now plays a larger role in the ABT Schaeffler Audi Sport team.
“Audi has consistently been using motorsport to test and develop new technologies further for subsequent use in production,” says Stefan Moser, head of motorsport communications for Audi. “In the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Audi was the first manufacturer to have achieved victories with a TFSI engine, a TDI and a hybrid race car, so writing motorsport history on several occasions. Now, we intend to repeat this in fully electric racing.”
BMW has also reaffirmed its involvement in Formula E. As the official vehicle partner to the series, the Munich-based brand provides pace cars on race weekends and is also a technology partner to the MS Amlin Andretti squad. BMW is eyeing full factory involvement when the single-charge Formula E car comes to fruition.
“The series has undergone a very interesting development in recent years, which we have followed closely,” BMW motorsport director Jens Marquardt says. “As a pioneer in the field of electric mobility, we know that we must forge new paths, while at the same time remaining true to our fundamental values.”
In other words, the idea of racing resonates strongly with certain brands and their core following – and the idea of emissions-free racing represents a compelling notion.
So compelling, in fact, that the latest incarnation of the hard-charging Jaguar brand has skipped Formula One and Le Mans competition altogether in favour of joining Formula E; the manufacturer last raced in F1 in 2004 and at Le Mans in 2011.
“Jaguar is a brand that’s always had racing in its DNA – right from the start, we’ve gone motor racing,” says James Barclay, Panasonic Jaguar Racing team director. “We’ve been looking at getting back to racing, and Formula E was the right fit. The championship focuses on a number of elements, [but] the main reason is to develop the battery technology. Racing is very aggressive in terms of timing; ultimately, out of it comes a better product.”
The 2016-17 FIA Formula E Championship resumes it schedule in Buenos Aires on Feb. 18. The final rounds of the championship are set for Montreal on July 29-30.

The ability to understand and use the information about our health conditions is one of the most important self-care skills we can have. Yet a report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reveals that almost 9 out 10 adults find it difficult to use health information found in clinics, retailers, media and the community. At least 90 million Americans face some difficulty understanding and acting on information they receive about health care.
Programs like Living Well, Health Living with Diabetes and Stepping On help older adults take charge of getting - and acting on - the information they need to improve their health. As workshop participants develop action plans and practice new communication skills, they gain confidence to ask questions of health providers- even when it feels uncomfortable. And asking questions is key for older adults who have chronic conditions or are caregivers.
"I think of the doctor, about to leave, with his hand on the doorknob saying 'Any questions?'" says health literacy advocate Steve Sparks. "Don't give up!" Sparks advises. "The best time to get the information you need is before you leave the doctor's office."
Sparks's organization - Wisconsin Health Literacy - is part of a growing national effort to make health care information - from office visits to medication labels - easier for patients to grasp and put into practice. "We all prefer clear communication," Sparks points out. The impact of better health instructions can be dramatic, according to Sparks. "Research shows plain language health instructions lead to fewer hospitalizations, ED readmissions, and fewer adverse drug events for patients with chronic illnesses like heart failure and diabetes."
"Almost everyone will have a problem at some point understanding what they need to know about a health condition or using medication," Sparks says. However, the need to improve communication with older people is especially urgent. "Normal cognitive changes that come with aging can affect people's ability to understand and use health information," Sparks says. Changes in vision and hearing, as well as medication side-effects, are other challenges for older adults. Nationally, just 3% of adults over 65 have "proficient" health literacy skills, compared with about 12% of all adults - still a shockingly low measure.
"When I recently spoke to an aging services group, they were genuinely surprised to hear the scope of the problem. In reality, better health literacy is a shared responsibility," comments Sparks, "but there is much more that providers can do to improve how they communicate with older adults."
Prescription labels are one area where Wisconsin Health Literacy is taking a national leadership role. New federal guidelines for better prescription labels would especially benefit older adults, who often take multiple medications. However, the guidelines are voluntary - and very few states have made the switch.
"We already know that easier to read labels make a difference for people, and lead to better health outcomes," Sparks confirms. "Wisconsin Health Literacy is now working with UW Health and Hometown Pharmacies to develop a model for successfully transitioning to the new label. By identifying how that process can work more smoothly, we hope more states will adopt the guidelines - and help consumers get better health care."
Asking questions is key - even if it feels uncomfortable. Sparks says older adults with low health literacy are less likely to ask questions because they may feel ashamed or afraid to ask to have information repeated. He recommends these ideas for improving your health literacy:
1) Prepare carefully for your healthcare visits. Know ALL:
2) Use the Ask3 framework for your questions:
3) DON'T GIVE UP if you still don't understand!

Photo exhibition dedicated to the 120 years anniversary of Novosibirsk city opened at NOVOSIBIRSK International Airport
The exhibition of a famous photographer-blogger from Novosibirsk Slava Stepanov (Gelio) Novosibirsk 120 years – Gaining height! opened in the Domestic Terminal of NOVOSIBIRSK International Airport. It is dedicated to the airport and the city which celebrates its anniversary on June 30, 2013.
The exhibits - unique shots taken from unusual perspectives - allow guests of Novosibirsk to get acquainted with the city and for its residents - to take a fresh look at familiar spots. Most photos are dedicated to the biggest airport in Siberia and aviation. It offers passengers rare opportunity to see the world from another angle as well as to get positive emotions. The exhibition presents many new photos by Slava Stepanov included in the new edition of Novosibirsk by Gelio photo album.
The exhibition will be open for passengers and guests of NOVOSIBIRSK International Airport in the Arrival hall and in the public area on the second level of the Domestic Terminal till the end of June.
NOVOSIBIRSK International Airport is the largest air hub east of the Urals on major transit routes between Europe and Asia. The domestic airline capacity makes up 1,800 passengers per hour, on international flights – 750 passengers per hour. The airport has two runways. In 2013 it expects to serve over 3.7 million passengers.The airport has been nominated for World Routes Awards in the category “The Best Airport of CIS 2012”.
Slava Stepanov (Gelio) is a photographer-blogger from Novosibirsk involved in high rise architecture and industrial photography taking pictures across Russia from Kaliningrad to Vladivostok and abroad. Currently his portfolio comprises photos depicting various Russian cities, the largest manufacturing enterprises and infrastructure facilities in the CIS and beyond. The author made over 30 aviation photo reports including multiple shootings in NOVOSIBIRSK International Airport. In the photographer’s opinion, height fascinates, makes you feel free and transforms daily routine. Sometimes another perspective is already enough to note something new in familiar places.

While I was working on my Snowy Egret post from yesterday I wandered through some of my older files and came across this Semipalmated Plover image and it struck me that I had something to say about a critique I had gotten about it when I posted it to an image critique forum I used to be active on. The comment “ruffled my feathers” a bit at that time and recalling what was said made me feel the same way all over again.
Critique forums can be invaluable when learning the craft of photography because most of the thoughtful comments are helpful while some other comments aren’t really helpful at all. Early on I learned a lot from the generous members of the forum who offered help and were honest in their assessment of the files I posted, I am very grateful for those people.
This was the comment:
Very nice, great job on the exposure and I like your comp, maybe just a bit lower angle would make it even better (little silly emoticons of beer mugs knocking together displayed here).
The comment may seem wonderful because it talks about the great job on the exposure and composition but what bothered me was the comment about a bit of a lower angle might have made it even better.
Just looking at the image gives the viewer the idea that I had to be low to the ground when the image was created, this is a tiny little plover on the exposed mudflats after the tide had receded and those little mounds of sand were created by even tinier crabs. My upper half was laying in the slimy mud while my lower half was in the shallow water, the bird was close to the edge of the mudflat with the gentle slope leading to the sand dunes behind it and the bird was actually located just slightly above me.
If the person commenting had noticed what I wrote and the things I mentioned above they would have realized that their comment didn’t make much sense. Had I been any lower the sand from the crabs burrows would have become more of a distraction at the bottom of the frame and that could have ruined the image. So I kind of hope the commenter had been joking.
Besides, to have gotten any lower than the Semipalmated Plover I would have had to have crawled down the burrow of one of those crabs and while I don’t mind getting down and dirty to get my images that would have been taking it just a bit too far.
Yes, I hope he was joking.

INNOVATIVE AND FORWARD-LOOKING
Lowering the manufacturing temperature opens up new opportunities for asphalt as a construction material. Lower energy costs and less emissions are only part of the positive characteristics of low-temperature asphalt.
Despite the growing number of varied solutions that have appeared on the market we believe that it is not enough to focus exclusively on a particular method of introducing additives or foam bitumen. The entire process chain is affected, starting with drying at a reduced temperature through to specific mixing sequences and on to the introduction of recycling. Ammann has focused their research and development on the complete manufacturing process for low-temperature asphalt with an injection device being simply the beginning.
- Same quality as hot asphalt
- Lower energy consumption
- Lower emission of CO2 per tonne of asphalt
- Lower emissions at the road construction site
- Ideal supplement to recycling
- Reduction of bitumen ageing
ENERGY EFFICIENT, LOW EMISSION AND CO₂ – OPTIMISED
New technologies enable the manufacturing of asphalt at reduced temperatures. The energy consumption per tonne of asphalt and the emissions at the road construction site drop significantly. Whilst conventional asphalt is produced at around 170°C, the low – temperature processes of today allow production temperatures of around 100°C. Ammann offers various technologies for this. Foam bitumen, waxes and other additives, special bitumen or alternative mixing cycles can be suitable for use, depending on the application.
Ammann is convinced that the future lies with low temperature asphalt. In cooperation with customers and laboratories, we have developed the Ammann Foam process.
This process is based on the foaming of bitumen with water and is employed in continuous and batch plants. Ammann Foam works without any chemical additives and also can be retrofitted to existing plants with minimal effort.
The process begins when hot bitumen is pumped into the foam generator. Cold water with no chemical additive is injected under high pressure and mixed with the hot bitumen. This water/bitumen mix is then forced through the outlet. The water expands when the mix leaves the foam generator, and the so -called foam bitumen is created.
- Heating of the raw aggregate to approximately 115 ° C
- Perfect mix of bitumen and aggregates

New York (CNN Business)As with most automakers, Ford’s earnings took a hit from the supply chain problems and computer chip shortage. But its third quarter results were much better than Wall Street expected. The company also raised its outlook for future earnings and restored its dividend.
The company posted adjusted earnings of $2 billion, down 22% from a year earlier and less than the adjusted earnings from Tesla, which despite its soaring stock value has only a fraction of the sales of any major automaker.Ford’s automotive revenue of $33.2 billion fell 4% from a year ago (although it was nearly triple that of Tesla (TSLA)). But both the revenue and earnings were much better than analysts surveyed by Refinitiv had expected. They had been forecasting Ford would earn less than $1 billion on automotive revenue of $32.5 billion.
The company said that while the availability of computer chips remains a challenge, the situation was “markedly improved” from the second quarter, propelling a 32% rise in Ford’s shipments to dealers compared to the April through June period, and 33% gain in revenue on that basis.
Supply chain problems have hit the auto industry hard for months, limiting production by causing temporary plant closings. Overall, US car sales were down about 13% in the quarter, according to Cox Automotive. Read MoreFord’s results were similar to what was reported at rival General Motors (GM) earlier in the day — earnings and revenue fell from a year earlier but were better than forecast.
Ford raised its full-year operating earnings guidance to between $10.5 billion to $11.5 billion, up from the range of $9 billion to $10 billion it gave three months ago. And the company restored the dividend it suspended during the earliest days of the pandemic in March 2020 as it sought to preserve cash in the face of then plunging car sales.Shares of Ford (F), which closed down 3% in regular trading Wednesday, jumped 4% in after-market trading on the report.


It’s an old joke that many fusion scientists have grown tired of hearing: Practical nuclear fusion power is just 30 years away—and always will be.
But now, that may no longer be true. New advances in magnet technology have enabled researchers at MIT to propose a new design for a practical compact tokamak fusion reactor—and it’s one that might be realized in as little as a decade, they say.
The new reactor uses coils of rare-earth barium copper oxide, a commercially available superconductor, to generate an extremely strong magnetic field. Introducing this material “just ripples through the whole design,” says Dennis Whyte, a professor of nuclear science and engineering and director of MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center. “It changes the whole thing.”
The stronger magnetic field makes it possible to confine the superhot plasma—the electrically charged gas that feeds the fusion reaction—within a much smaller device than those previously envisioned. The reduction in size, in turn, makes the whole system less expensive and faster to build. The reactor concept, which uses a tokamak (doughnut-shaped) geometry that is widely studied, was developed by Whyte, PhD candidate Brandon Sorbom, and several other students. Their concept originated in a design class taught by Whyte and continued as a student-led project after the class ended.
The new reactor is designed for basic research on fusion and also as a potential prototype power plant that could produce significant power. “The much higher magnetic field allows you to achieve much higher performance,” says Sorbom.
Fusion reactors, which rely on the same nuclear reaction that powers the sun, force pairs of hydrogen atoms together to form helium, which releases enormous amounts of energy. The hardest part of designing a workable reactor has been confining the plasma while heating it to temperatures hotter than the cores of stars. This is where the magnetic fields are critical: they effectively trap the heat and particles in the hot center of the device.
The new superconductors make it possible to increase the power produced by about a factor of 10 compared with standard superconducting technology, Sorbom says. Right now, he adds, the reactor should be capable of producing about three times as much electricity as is needed to keep it running. The design could probably be improved to increase that proportion to about five or six times, he says, which would yield enough electricity for about 100,000 people. Until now, no fusion reactor has produced as much energy as it consumes.

WASHINGTON – Congressional Republicans and President Obama are racing toward a showdown over immigration that could result in another governmental shutdown, impeachment proceedings or both.
Obama returned to Washington from Australia on Sunday after attending the G20 summit and now is expected to issue an executive order by the end of the week, if not sooner, that the White House has hinted will, among other things, postpone the deportation of as many as 5 million undocumented aliens and allow them to obtain work permits.
Specifically, sources suggest, the plan will expand a program that permits illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. as children to remain and work on a temporary basis. It also likely will permit individuals who crossed the border illegally and had children while living in the states, thus making those children American citizens, to stay.
Additional steps are still being contemplated, like stricter border enforcement measures.
The president has consistently maintained that he is taking action only because the Republican-led House is dragging its feet and has failed to consider a bipartisan measure that passed the Senate last year. If the House acts, Obama has said he will rescind the directive.
“I can’t wait in perpetuity when I have authorities that, at least for the next two years, can improve the system, can allow us to shift more resources to the border rather than separating families, improve the legal immigration system,” Obama told reporters before leaving Australia. “I would be derelict in my duties if I did not try to improve the system that everybody acknowledges is broken.”
But legislative Republicans, fresh off overwhelming victories in the Nov. 4 election that provided them with majorities in both the House and Senate when the 114th Congress convenes in January, said any presidential order on immigration will dirty the waters, rendering action on the issue even more difficult while further deteriorating their already strained relations with the president.
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said last week that he isn’t looking for a government shutdown but he asserted that “all options are on the table” in the effort to prevent any unilateral action from the president, and he is discussing potential strategies with GOP lawmakers.
“We’re going to fight the president tooth and nail if he continues down this path,” Boehner said. “This is the wrong way to govern.”
Boehner added that Republicans want to “stop the president from violating his own oath of office and violating the Constitution. It’s not to shut down the government.”
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky, who will lead the majority in the next Congress, has also warned the president of potential consequences if he proceeds sans congressional approval. But McConnell has vowed to keep the federal government operating regardless of what action Obama might take.
“Let me make it clear – there will be no government shutdowns and no default on the national debt,” McConnell said the day after winning election to a sixth term.
But McConnell could face some pushback from the delegation he has been selected to lead. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), who is expected to assume the chairmanship of the Senate Budget Committee, characterized the potential for an executive order on immigration as “shocking” and is pressing the GOP leadership to seek only a short-term budget that will keep the government open only through the beginning of next year to exert pressure on the White House.
“The president cannot, having had his policies defeated at the ballot box, impose them through executive decree,” Sessions said. “A Republican Congress will defend itself and our citizens from these lawless actions. Surrendering to illegality is not an option. Democrats will have to choose sides — protect the president’s agenda or protect your constituents. Americans do not want their borders erased.”
Rep. Steven King (R-Iowa), one of the leading voices in opposition to immigration reform, volunteered that “the audacity of this president to think he can completely destroy the rule of law with the stroke of a pen is unfathomable to me. It is unconstitutional, it is cynical, and it violates the will of the American people. Our republic will not stand if we tolerate a president who is set upon the complete destruction of the rule of law.”
King added that Congress “cannot allow Barack Obama’s anticipated unconstitutional act to be implemented, for if it is it will destroy the pillars of American exceptionalism. Come what may – we must always protect the Constitution.”
But should Obama proceed he won’t be the first president to issue an executive order offering some form of protection for illegal immigrants under current law. Two Republican presidents, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, extended amnesty to some undocumented workers who had family members living in the U.S.
In 1986, Congress passed the Simpson-Mazzoli Immigration Reform and Control Act, which remains in effect. The law provided legal status to about 3 million undocumented workers who entered U.S. territory before 1982. But spouses and children who didn’t meet those requirements were targeted for deportation.
Congressional efforts to change the law failed. So in 1987 the Immigration and Naturalization Service under Reagan declared that minor children of parents who were granted amnesty would not be deported.
Regardless, congressional Republicans are trying to stop Obama in his tracks. Rep. Matt Salmon (R-Ariz.) sent a letter to Rep. Hal Rogers (R-Ky.), chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, asking that the panel prohibit funding for any immigration executive order Obama might issue.
Salmon said the president already has indicated that he intends “to pursue a course of unilaterally granting amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants.”
“He claims this will be for their benefit, but it is the most detrimental action he could take toward reform of our nation’s immigration laws,” Salmon said, asserting that any such action “would kill any possibility of meaningful reform in the future.”
Salmon noted that 62 members joined him in signing the letter.
“Our Constitution makes clear that the president is not free to act as he sees fit without regard to our laws,” Salmon said. “It also includes language that gives Congress the power of the purse, a tool that has been used many times before to rein in out-of-control executive actions. If the president is intent on defying the will of Congress and the American people, then Congress must be willing use their constitutionally-mandated tools to stop him.”
And there have been whispers of impeachment if Obama proceeds, although it doesn’t appear the GOP will reach that far. King said it should be considered and Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas) raised the specter during a recent interview on “American Forum’’ carried by NewsMaxTV.
“Well, impeachment is indicting in the House and that’s a possibility,” Barton said. “But you still have to convict in the Senate and that takes a two-thirds vote. But impeachment would be a consideration, yes sir.”
For his part, Obama noted that the Senate passed acceptable legislation on June 27, 2013, by a 68-32 vote and the situation warrants action since the House has refused to act after almost 17 months.
The legislation would provide a path to citizenship for the estimated 11 million undocumented workers living in the U.S. It also would add 40,000 Border Patrol agents.

The Obama administration says its new immigration policy could spare as
many as 800,000 illegal immigrants in the United States from
deportation. The change addresses a concern of influential Hispanic
voters in an election year.
In the Rose Garden, President Barack Obama announced Friday that the
U.S. government will stop deporting young immigrants who entered the
country as children and who have since lived within the law.
“I have got a young person who is serving in our military, protecting us
and our freedom. The notion that, in some ways, we would treat them as
expendable makes no sense,” Obama said.
The president said the new policy will not lead toward citizenship, but
will remove the threat of deportation and allow the immigrants to work
“Over the next few months, eligible individuals who do not present a
risk to national security or public safety will be able to request
temporary relief from deportation proceedings and apply for work
authorization,” Obama said.
Under the plan, illegal immigrants will not be deported if they are
younger than 30 and were brought to the U.S. before they turned 16. They
also must have been in the country for at least five continuous years,
have no criminal history, graduated from a U.S. high school or earned an
equivalent diploma, or served in the military.
The initiative also allows those affected to apply for a work permit
that will be good for two years and can be renewed with no limits.
Obama is making the move in an election year in which Hispanic voters
could influence the outcome of the election in several states where the
vote is expected to be close.
Also, the president is scheduled to speak next Friday to the annual
conference of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, in Florida.
A public opinion poll, NBC News/Wall Street Journal, taken last month
showed that the president holds a big 61% to 27% lead over Republican
candidate Mitt Romney among Latinos.
But Hispanic leaders have raised concerns with Mr. Obama over the record
number of recent deportations. The U.S. deported almost 400,000 people
in 2011, and is likely to expel slightly more this year.
The initiative achieves some of the goals of the so-called DREAM Act,
which Congress voted down in 2010. The legislation would establish a
path toward citizenship for young people who came to the U.S. illegally
but have attended college or served in the military.
The president said he is issuing the temporary order because Congress
has not addressed comprehensive reform of the U.S. immigration system.
is still time for Congress to pass the DREAM Act this year, because
these kids deserve to plan their lives in more than two-year increments.
And we still need to pass comprehensive immigration reform that
addresses our 21st century economic and security needs,” Obama said.
Governor Romney said he agrees with Republican Senator Marco Rubio, a
Cuban-American who recently proposed a similar immigration policy, that
Mr. Obama's plan is not helpful in the long term.
"This is an important matter. We have to find a long-term solution, but
the president's action makes reaching a long-term solution more
difficult," Romney said.
Other Republicans have blasted the president’s move as a political
stunt. Republican Congressman Steve King from the Central state of Iowa
said in a statement that “Americans should be outraged that President
Obama is planning to usurp the Constitutional authority of the United
States Congress and grant amnesty by edict to one million illegal

Recently, British Airways started keeping information on some of their VIP customers and searching for their images online all in the name of service. The program, called “Know Me,” has some privacy advocates worried.
“Last year we re-committed to the ethos: To Fly. To Serve. That’s what ’˜Know Me’ is all about – enabling us to recognise our customers in a way that is individual to them,” Jo Boswell, head of customer analysis at British Airways, stated. ’œWe’re essentially trying to recreate the feeling of recognition you get in a favourite restaurant when you’re welcomed there, but in our case it will be delivered by thousands of staff to millions of customers.’
The idea is simple enough. Airline employees have iPads which contain information on high-end passengers. What kind of food they prefer, if it is the first time they have flown with a certain product and if they might have had previous issues flying on the airline. The software also allows the crew to identify a passenger by searching Google Images.
Although many passengers probably appreciate this high-level of service, not everyone is so happy. According to CNN, Emma Carr, deputy director of privacy campaign group Big Brother Watch stated, “Since when has buying a flight ticket meant giving your airline permission to start hunting for information about you on the internet?” Fundamentally, British Airways has not asked their passengers’ permission to take part in this scheme. Surely, if they want to search Google to find pictures and any other information all they have to do is ask?”
Why wouldn’t an airline take advantage of this? I am pretty sure photos found on the internet are part of the public domain, that anyone could find.
The airline states that they will not be doing this level of service for a huge majority of the passengers, but just the rare few who probably are used to being known. According the British Airways, the service is being well received. “The early results have been extremely positive, our customers love being recognised and treated as an individual, and our customer service staff and cabin crew feel empowered to deliver a really bespoke service,” Boswell said. “This is just the start though ’“ the system has a myriad of possibilities for the future.’
What do you think? Is this a genius customer service move, creepy or an invasion of privacy?
I can see where certain passengers would love it. And how some would hate it. So, before BA starts building a dossier for these high-end passengers, give them the chance to opt in.
I’d opt in for a favorite airline. I’d even fill out my profile.
BA is doing it correctly. I wish more airlines would follow what they are doing.
From a Frequent flyer perspective i think its a good thing, being able to have the airline staff recognize the hard work and effort we put into flying them all the time and having our preferences already known, should make the flight easier.
If the crew know that I haven’t flown an aircraft or service before (such as Next Gen Club World or New First) then they know to explain how the seat works perhaps or any sublte differences, if they know I have flown it before, they know to perhaps not mention anything or just say “if theres anything i can do to help you with this journey, just let me know”.
Its the little things that count towards making that special experience all the more better.
Woah, that is pretty freaky. That being said, I think it would be cool if they were doing this covertly, it would be a great customer service tool. But if they have to get permission like the one person said it would take all the magic out of it.
I don’t see the big issue with this — airlines already have use of this data and already use things like frequent flyer information to reach out to customers. This is just a more blatant way of doing it. And I don’t think a Google search is an invasion of privacy — it’s already out there!
I wouldn’t mind crew saying “Hi Kevin, welcome aboard!”. More and more we’re being tempted to live our lives more publicly (FourSquare, Facebook Check-in, etc). If some good can be had from that – why not?
They are only doing a google search, so the info is already in the public domain. Well done BA.
I work for a very high end resort management company and this is pretty much standard across the industry. It makes sense that an airline would use this technique as well.
I don’t see the problem with this, much of the info is already supplied by the customer in their frequent flyer profile. BA are just delving more deeply and using Google images which are already in the public domain. This can also apply to anyone with a photo on Facebook, particularly as so many subscribers have never bothered to set their privacy levels.
I’d rather have the choice to opt out if I wanted.
I’d rather have the choice to opt out if I wanted.
Good intentioned program, not well executed. Sure, I might love to be recognized the next time I fly BA. Simply ask me…but don’t go searching for my picture without my consent.
The Four Seasons hotels have a similar program, but I doubt they search the internet to find out about their customers. Their employees address their clients by name and know their preferences. Knowing them, confidentiality is important.

On the cusp of 2012, I’ve invited 11 of the greater Houston area’s top minds to contemplate the world’s end. Lightheartedly I’ve asked them, before the Mayan apocalypse, for the one burning question that they’d like to see answered before the cataclysm. A new entry in the 11 for ’12 series will be published each morning during the holidays.
For centuries humans have looked to the skies and have asked the question,“Are we alone?” Does life exist elsewhere in the universe or is it unique here on Earth?
NASA has several missions that address this question. The recent discovery of a planet in habitable zones around a distant star by the Kepler mission is a step closer to finding Earth-like planets where life as we know it might exist.
Closer to home, the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover Curiosity is currently en route to Mars and will arrive on the surface in August. Although MSL is not a life-detection mission, we are going there to look for all of the things that are necessary for life such as water, organic compounds and nutrients.
Curiosity is much larger than the previous Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity that arrived at Mars in 2004. Opportunity is currently exploring the rim of a large crater on the plains of Meridiani Planum. Opportunity has lasted for years longer than planned and continues to advance our knowledge of the history of water on the red planet.
Mars science is driven by that age-old question: Are we alone? Could life once have developed there? Could life have persisted there? Could life still persist on Mars today?Perhaps Curiosity’s cameras will image a “dinosaur bone” that indicates that life once persisted on Mars and may be there today.
So, if the world is going to end in 2012, I would want to know if there is life somewhere out there. If there is life elsewhere, then perhaps we can find comfort in the fact that life will persist in the universe as our world disappears.

Facebook commits $100 million to support news industry during virus pandemic
Facebook is making a play in support of the news/media industry by investing $100 million to support local news organizations during the coronavirus pandemic. According to Variety, this is in addition to its previous pledge to dole out $300 million over a three-year period.
Campbell Brown, Vice President of global news partnerships issued a statement explaining why Facebook is turning its attention to the media industry, saying, “At a time when journalism is needed more than ever, ad revenues are declining due to the economic impact of the virus.”
“Local journalists are being hit especially hard, even as people turn to them for critical information to keep their friends, families and communities safe.”
CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted a similar statement on his page Monday, saying, “We’re hoping this will support many journalists through this period so they can continue doing their critical work of keeping all of us informed,” he wrote.
Facebook doesn’t have details right now about how the $100 million will be doled out. “We’ll be working with partners in the industry on how to best allocate this funding to serve critical needs across the local news ecosystem,” a company rep said.
Facebook’s COVID-19 Community Network grant program is already available to journalists, and some of the funds will go to publishers in the hardest hit countries, the company said. The first round of grants was disbursed to newsrooms in the U.S. and Canada.
Beneficiaries include the Post and Courier in Charleston, S.C.; the Southeast Missourian in Cape Girardeau, Mo.; and El Paso Matters in Texas.
Facebook’s previous investment of $300 million is distributed through several programs and partnerships including Report for America, the Pulitzer Center, the Community News Project and the Facebook Journalism Project’s Local News Accelerator training program.
“This money will not only help keep journalists reporting right now amidst the crisis, the funding will also fuel opportunities for local media to accelerate business transformation toward a more sustainable digital footing,” said Nancy Lane, CEO of Local Media Association.

Using their rather unique monitor, you don’t even have to touch the screen to manipulate objects on it. You can just point, I know your mother always told you it wasn’t nice to point, but I don’t think you are going to hurt the monitor’s feelings any.
You can use your pointing finger from up to 5 feet away to navigate and move objects on the screen. The best part, for products designers and graphics artists, is that you can navigate in a 3D space, not just 2D.
There are no wires or sensors that connect you to the monitor, in fact, I have no idea how it works, and it just does. The company said that the tech is small enough they could, feasibly, in the future, stuff it into a cell phone. If you want to see more, they’ll be showing off the tech at the San Francisco GDC show this month.


I have 2 Ruckus ZoneFlex R510's and Ruckus ICX 7150-c12p switch. I recently upgraded to AT&T 1000mbps internet but am only getting wireless speeds up to 300's, maybe 400's even when I am right by the AP. Any suggestions on how to improve speeds? These were installed as part of my new home with Lennar.
There are a lot of things that can affect speed. Protocol, channel, antenna, switches, ethernet cabling, interference, etc. etc. etc. Are you connecting on 2.4ghz/5ghz radio? over what protocol? Do you see the same speed results with different devices? What are you using to test your speed? Are you getting full speed on a wired device?
Here are the supported data rates per the spec sheet of the ZF R510:
802.11n/ac: 6.5Mbps – 173.4Mbps (20MHz)
13.5Mbps – 400Mbps (40MHz)
29.3Mbps – 867Mbps (80MHz)
802.11a: 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9 and 6Mbps
802.11b: 11, 5.5, 2 and 1 Mbps
802.11g: 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9 and 6 Mbps
Keep in mind that the high end of those data rates are going to be under pristine conditions.
I tested on a hardwire connection and got about 400 down and 900 up. I've seen similar speeds on multiple devices connected to the 5ghz channel. I'm not sure over what protocol (Not very tech savvy but trying to learn) I tried establishing a specific channel based on the Wifi Analyzer app, but that didn't seem to help so I reset it to to auto channel) I'm using the Speedtest app, says my ping is 3ms, speeds are usually in the 200s on my smart phone (there are times speeds are less than 100 but I disconnect/reconnect to WiFi and speeds increase dramatically, which makes me believe the phone has an issue). Even when running wireless tests directly under the AP speeds have never been over 500mbps.
Vincent, there is an actually problem with unleashed firmware 200.7.x and 200.8.x while some started indicating issues with the newest sz firmware too.... It's taken a while for Ruckus Tech support to finally reproduce problems in their lab with unleashed... but I think issue also impacts their Zone Director and Smart Zone platform too..


As the global climate continues to fluctuate, water disasters are on the rise. The United Nations (UN) recently reported that harmful water events top the list of the world’s most destructive disasters. The number of water-related disasters has increased by a factor of five over the past 50 years, driven by climate change and weather extremes (and also, at least in part, higher population density and better reporting). And while the death toll of these events have leveled out over the years due to better warning systems, the economic toll of the crises has not. Over the same time period, costs related to water emergencies averaged out to $202 million USD per day.
The rise in water disasters presents an urgent challenge. Here, we’ll outline the growing problem and discuss how the convergence of technologies such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), advanced data collection, and enterprise software integration form a vital tech toolkit for water disaster management.
Water disasters worldwide
No country or region is immune to water disasters. Climate change, extreme weather patterns, and human behavior all affect the damage water disasters cause. The Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI) divides water disasters into three main types:
- Meteorological events, particularly convective storms, extratropical storms, and tropical cyclones. In September 2023, for instance, Cyclone Daniel devastated the city of Derna, Libya, smashing dams and killing thousands.
- Hydrological events, such as floods and the resulting mass movements. Haiti flooded in June 2023, displacing thousands of residents in an area still recovering from earthquakes.
- Climatological events, especially extreme rainfalls, and their opposite, droughts. For example, northeastern France was hit with a record rainfall in early November 2023. Rivers broke their banks, dissolving roads and forcing thousands to evacuate.
Not only can water disasters be acute, as in the case of the flash floods in Los Angeles in August 2023, but they can also be chronic. For example, Flint, Michigan is still dealing with the lead contamination crisis nine years after it switched from Detroit’s water supply to the Flint River. Water-borne illnesses also continue to be a persistent issue – according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), almost half of hospital beds worldwide contain patients suffering from a water-related disease.
The sheer magnitude of the risks involved underscores why water disaster management has become an imperative worldwide. As we grapple with the enduring repercussions of water disasters, the role of technology in mitigation becomes increasingly vital.
Water disaster management with Fulcrum’s tech trio
Within the Fulcrum platform, the convergence of three critical technology tools – Geographic Information System (GIS), advanced data collection, and software integrations – creates a comprehensive toolkit for water disaster management. This combination elevates real-time response and fortifies predictive and planning strategies for tackling water-related crises.
1. Geographic Information System
Geographic information system (GIS) technology brings revolutionary detail to water disaster management. Rather than merely monitoring information, GIS allows organizations to build interactive models by analyzing geospatial information in real time. Combining local topographical markers with regional weather standards, for instance, can unlock valuable information about possible future flood trends. This is particularly when combined with the details of larger climate changes.
2. Advanced data collection
All best practices for water disaster management start with rigorous data collection. Accurate data allows not only for disaster planning, but also for prediction. For example, authorities can map out potential flood zones in detail, accounting for shifting variables like construction projects and runoff. With a baseline established, it becomes much easier to issue early warnings, not to mention to deliver necessary emergency resources.
Data also delivers insights that make long-term planning more feasible and robust, building in an extra layer of protection for the people whose lives and livelihoods are on the line.
3. Integrations with other software
Rivers and waterways often cross town, state, and even international borders. This means many local, regional, and national authorities need to continually monitor and assess for flood conditions. More importantly, those authorities need to share information and strategies. However, many enterprise software systems can impede that vital sharing process. Today’s water disaster management requires a flexible, agnostic platform that allows for comprehensive multi-team analysis.

It’s a big world, full of many buzzwords, out there. That means it’s very easy to get lost when you’re trying to figure out what you actually need to make your operation more efficient.
There seems to be a consensus though – even if it took a bit of time for most industries to accept. And that consensus is that properly leveraged digital tools can generate major efficiencies in a business.
But how do you get started? What exactly should you be looking for?
This is a hard question, as the answer will vary from operation to operation. It depends on your organisation’s maturity level and which digitised components you’ve adopted. Hopefully, this article will give you a bit more insight into what you can achieve beyond all the buzzwords, with real-life examples.
Of course, we’re always happy to work through what this could look like in the context of your particular operation. So if this is a chat you’d like to have, feel free to reach out!
Starting with a bit of history
Since 1991, road authorities in certain Australian states have mandated equipping heavy vehicles with onboard computers. These computers needed to be capable of logging trip-by-trip information so that companies could audit each driver’s on-road behaviour and decisions.
In concept, this was much like a plane’s black box. At the time, the information would only be used if a vehicle was involved in an incident, to help inspectors and insurance companies better understand the context.
Typically, the minimum requirement for these systems was the ability to monitor:
- how long vehicles were driven for
- how long they stopped for
- how fast they were driven
- how much distance they covered
- the locations and times of trip start and finish (manually entered).
Truck manufacturers and outsiders both scrambled to comply with this rule and create systems that could support it. And connecting the monitoring equipment to anything else was near impossible. When Australia’s first consumer GSM phone networks launched in 1993, they couldn’t carry data, so many of those early computer systems were proprietarily built.
However, as onboard computer technology advanced, manufacturers saw an opportunity to simplify vehicle maintenance and servicing. Increasing the capability of the ‘black boxes’ ensured that only certified technicians could read the very complex and valuable data coming out of the systems. This then maximised the manufacturer’s servicing and spare parts revenue.
Of course, telecommunications networks have developed significantly since then. With far cheaper data plans, manufacturers could develop new solutions to access and share relevant data over wireless networks.
One of these solutions was GPS positioning, which carries an increasing market value even today.
This evolution and transformation in the Transport industry then had a similar impact on other industries. For example, operations in the Agriculture and Environmental Management space had both been taking analog measurements – more-or-less accurately – for a long time.
Today, both industries can significantly scale up their measurements by leveraging cheaper connected devices. As a result, they have access to a much better digital picture that enables operators and decision-makers to make more accurate decisions. They may even decide to automate the decision-making altogether.
What separates tracking, telemetry, IoT and a fully digital operation?
To illustrate the difference between these four options, let’s take the example of an excavator:
Location tracking provides you with information on where the excavator is at any given time – usually on a map. More often than not, the data can tell you where the machine has been as well. Plus, sometimes, onboard systems may tell you if the asset was on or off at the time of tracking.
This is valuable information if:
- the equipment gets lost
- you want to know if it’s working when it shouldn’t be
- you want to know if it’s not working when it should be.
However, accessing this information still requires an operator to manually look at the map to determine where the excavator is. Additionally, the data is sometimes provided by simple IoT (internet of things) devices that are ‘slapped’ onto the equipment. They work off their own power sources, which means battery life becomes a concern.
Telemetry provides a more complete picture of the excavator. Depending on the availability of data, the information it supplies could include simple engine fault codes or specific data points such as:
- engine hours
- tyre pressure
- weight lifted, and so on.
This data provides a more accurate representation of the asset in the digital world.
This kind of telemetry data is generally provided by the manufacturer in a cloud platform. Alternatively, you might access it through devices that plug into the onboard computer if the manufacturer makes a diagnostics port available. Another option is wiring a device into the engine run signals.
Whilst both of the previous examples are based on using IoT devices, the excavator is not yet a true IoT project. The missing piece is the ‘So What?’ Now that you have this data, how will you actually use it to make your work more efficient?
This is where many IoT projects fail. There’s no ‘one size fits all’. And making work more efficient usually requires either:
- changing the way you operate to work with this new system, or
- creating integrations with your existing operational systems.
There’s merit in both of these methods. However, in our experience, change is far harder to implement when you have to roll it out across a large workforce. That’s why we often recommend enhancing your current ways of working by enriching them with better data (this is what ‘Inauro’ means in latin!) as a more robust approach.
Industrialising the data your assets generate is where you start creating a truly digital operation.
Yes, having telemetry on the excavator in our example is usually valuable. But often, the telemetry alone isn’t enough to operationalise its use. Whilst the asset generates data in the digital world, that data remains in a silo. Depending on how you acquired the data, it might not be available to you in a platform that’s flexible enough to take in other data components. And only by ingesting those other components can it bring you the automation you’re after.
For operators on the ground, the platform needs to host both:
- asset telemetry data, and
- data from line of business systems that use that asset (think of site induction systems, finance systems, service schedule systems etc).
Linking the two types of systems is generally not a trivial process. But without that link, the data simply won’t be used (or if it is, it won’t be anywhere near as valuable as it could be.).
How data fusion platforms like PerspioTM can help to create a true digital operation
PerspioTM is the link between those systems: .Once you’ve integrated telemetry data with your line of business systems, a data fusion platform like Perspio™ can automatically push data to those systems. Or, alternatively, it can call data from those systems to provide context to the telemetry.
Beyond this, PerspioTM can enable concepts like Digital Twins within the platform, enabling complete flexibility to group sensors, assets and people any way your operation needs. That excavator now isn’t an isolated asset anymore, PerspioTM can group the excavator (physical asset in an ERP data base), the sensors on it (the IoT component), it’s operator (through the HR and induction system) as one logical object.
This, in turn, makes the other data feeds going into the same platform more relevant than ever. Plus, PerspioTM allows you to automatically capture data feeds that have nothing to do with location telemetry, such as checking:
- Does the operator have a licence to operate the machinery?
- Has the operator been inducted onto the site and done all appropriate safety training?
- Has the pre-start checklist for the excavator been executed correctly?
- Is there any risk of servicing interruption?
This is where the real value of IoT and digital evolution lies – automating processes that are currently manual, and for which there’s often no audit trail.
Having this data easily accessible at your fingertips means less risk for the operation, more efficiency and control, and better outcomes for your customers and your organisation. It’s a total win, win.

Which came first, the Commodore PET 2001, TRS 80, or the Apple II??
I have pics of a PET 2001 Prototype at the Jan 18-20 Gametronics convention. In and of itself, this is not really anything special considering the PET was also known to be displayed at the Winter Consumer Electronics Show also in January 1977. It's clear that there existed in January of 1977 a working prototype of the PET 2001. This machine was being marketed publicly.
Was there a working Apple II prototype in January 1977, more or less recognizable as an Apple II? There is no evidence to support this.
I am told that was a working TRS 80 in January 1977.
Here are pictures of the Commodore PET 2001 Prototype at Gametronics Convention January 18-20 1977

Alyssa Shepherd discusses how beneficial the arts can be in the treatment and prevention of mental health issues.
In July 2017, the All-Party Parliamentary Group On Arts, Health and Wellbeing published an inquiry report into the beneficial impact that the arts can have on health and wellbeing, and specifically mental health. The report draws upon extensive evidence from sixteen round-table discussions, at which more than three hundred people, including people working in the arts, health and social care, the prison service, academics, and clinicians, discussed the positive effects that the arts can have upon alleviating mental health issues. The report concludes by firmly asserting that the arts can be enlisted to improve our health and wellbeing. The present culture of healthcare within the National Health Service (NHS), however, places too much of an emphasis upon the technical-industrial and bureaucratic. As the report indicates, the formation and rolling development of those belonging to the medical professions is almost entirely science-based. Although members of the medical profession do, of course, strive to infuse this healthcare culture with genuine care and compassion, the profession more broadly has failed to acknowledge that the arts can complement and enrich the value of conventional medicine.
Art therapy has been harnessed by both artists and clinicians in recent years to engage with patients suffering from mental health issues and to help them explore their various difficult and painful life experiences. Within arts therapy, trained therapists assist patients in creating something, such as a drawing, a play, or a piece of music, in order to express their feelings. This is most helpful for those who may find it difficult to put their feelings precisely into words, and offers another medium by which we can communicate our thoughts, and thus reach solutions to alleviate negative automatic thinking. Therapists then guide patients in considering what they have created, and how this piece of art relates to their feelings and life experiences.
Arts therapy also offers the opportunity to overcome social isolation, through its promotion of group therapy. By sharing their experiences with others facing similar issues, patients learn how to work together to produce something, and gain a sense of peer support from their final achievements. Group arts therapies offer the opportunity to overcome anxieties related to socialising with other people, and the sense of loneliness attached to mental health issues, such as depression. The award-winning, Watford-based theatre company, May Contain Nuts, for example, improvises scenes that explore issues such as self-harm and suicide, and gives its members a sense of belonging to a community.
The arts also provide a unique medium by which we can expose, reveal and educate people upon taboo subjects within society, such as mental health. Playwright Duncan MacMillan’s Every Brilliant Thing, explores suicide, depression, and their attendant difficulties, with unwavering candour and authenticity. It is productions, such as MacMillan’s, that educate audiences about how it truly feels to be depressed, anxious, suffering from personality disorders, and many others issues, all the while humanizing those who suffer from, and attempt to manage, such conditions. Theatre groups, such as May Contain Nuts, holds performances and workshops after their productions, to allow audiences to discuss and reflect upon the issues addressed in the performance. This also provides healthcare professionals with the opportunity to ask probing and open questions that a clinical setting simply does not offer the correct forum for.
Overall, the arts provide an abundance of benefits for patients struggling to manage their mental health, and for professionals striving to assist those patients. The arts can offer another medium by which patients can communicate their emotions and various struggles, form friendships and overcome feelings of loneliness and isolation, and educate others on living with mental health issues. The arts can enhance conventional medicine and traditional forms of psychotherapy, and need to be taken more seriously by healthcare professionals in the future.

it gets into your blood, under your skin.” I don’t
know exactly what it is, but there is something about this country that
excites visitors – makes them want to extend their stay or at
the very least to return.
Is it the spectacular scenery; the wildlife; the traditional culture;
the atmosphere connected with the many historical places and
archaeological sites connected with the Great Silk Road, the Mongol
Hordes, the Bolshevik Revolution; or the variety of possible
activities; the hospitality of the local populace … or is it
a combination of all of these factors?
Whatever it is, there is something that makes Kyrgyzstan
“special”. It is a small country with over 90% of
the territory classified as “mountainous”. The
peaks and valleys divide the landscape into quite distinct landscapes,
microclimates and habitats. It is possible to encounter many different
experiences in a small geographical area, and a short space of time.
The Kyrgyz, themselves, recognize the uniqueness of the country as is
shown in some of their legends:
One that tells how, after the creation, God was apportioning plots of
land to the various peoples of the world. The Kyrgyz, whilst waiting in
line with all the others, decided that it was taking so long and that
he needed to go and look after his sheep. When he returned, he
discovered that God had finished his task – and the Kyrgyz
asked God: “What plot of land shall I have to call my
own?” God replied that all the land had been allocated
– there was none left. The Kyrgyz said that he did not need a
lot of land, it did not have to have lots of riches - it just had to be
sufficient for him to pasture his flocks. God took pity on him and said
that there was a little plot of land left. He had been intending to
keep it for Himself as a garden for his own rest and relaxation, but
the Kyrgyz could use it for pasturing his flocks.
Members of The Kyrgyz Association of Tour Operators, (which comprise
about a third of the tour operators in the country), are ready to
welcome you and make your stay memorable – and are sure that
that you too will agree that there is something
“special” about Kyrgyzstan.
