An electric vehicle that powers from 0 to 100 km/h faster than a Porsche 911 Carrera or a Formula 1 racing car? Yes, it’s not only possible, but fun. These electric cars are happy to show you their rear end.
For many people, the Porsche 911 Carrera is their absolute dream car and the epitome of performance. The basic two-seater with 385 hp races from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds. Yet many fans of sports cars and Formula 1 don’t know that when it comes to acceleration, electric vehicles leave some racing cars far behind. Electric drive has the advantage that virtually the maximum torque is available when accelerating from a standing start. The greater the torque and the fewer engine revolutions needed to produce it, the faster the e-vehicles can accelerate from low speeds. By contrast, modern diesels and gasoline-powered cars don’t develop much torque and performance unless the engine is already revving fast. But it takes several seconds to reach that state. And as most electric cars have only one gear, they can develop huge acceleration without interruption. Read about our choices for the five fastest electric cars in the world.
In 2019, Porsche launched a new era with its fully electric Taycan sports car. The stylish electric car was the star of the Porsche pavilion at the IAA 2019. The model family currently comprises the Taycan 4S, Taycan Turbo and Taycan Turbo S. Its Launch Control system enables maximum acceleration from a standing start and comes as standard in the Taycan. It applies an “overboost” for 2.5 seconds to provide extra power to the motors. During this period, the Taycan Turbo S develops 560 kW (761 hp), which catapults it to 100 km/h within 2.8 seconds.
A battle for fourth place: fractionally ahead of the Taycan is the electric super sports car by the Croatian maker Rimac. The Concept S was unveiled in 2016 and takes only 2.5 seconds to reach 100 km/h. (Its predecessor, the Concept One, needed 2.69 seconds.) It has a huge power output of 1,384 hp and 1,800 Nm. This is a car with rarity value because you can’t go out and buy one – although there are seven Concept Ones in private ownership. Such exclusivity comes with a hefty price tag: the price of those cars when new was one million euros. The Croatians’ third auto is set to have even greater performance. With an incredible 1,914 hp and 2,300 Nm, the C_Two is intended to race up to the 100 mark in less than 2 seconds and its top speed is put at 412 km/h. The car is also reaching new heights with its price of 1.8 million euros.
Tesla’s successful Model S has the same statistics when it comes to the sprint. The sedan comes in a Performance version with two electric motors. But with a price of 98,990 euros it is relatively cheap. Performance is based on the Ludicrous Mode – a reference to Mel Brooks’ science fiction comedy “Spaceballs.” The “ludicrous” technology brings the full vehicle power into play. To do this, a chip temporarily increases the voltage, enabling the car to accelerate faster. Tesla models with Ludicrous Mode can be recognized by a horizontal red line below the vehicle badge.
The third contender is Lucid Motors, with its Air Dream Edition. The four-door sedan comes with 1,080 hp, also taking it to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds. But this comes at a price: the base version costs around 170,000 euros. Its top speed is 270 km/h, helped by the outstanding drag coefficient (cW) of 0.21 that improves the aerodynamics. The first series vehicles should come onto the market in 2021.
The second Tesla in our top five is the new Roadster, which is expected on the market (after several delays to dates announced by Elon Musk) in 2022. Yet it could be worth the wait. The successor to the successful two-seater will have exceptional performance characteristics: three electric motors, a top speed of 400 km/h and a range of 1,000 km – plus enough room for four people. The combined wheel torque of 10,000 Nm catapults the car from 0 to 100 km/h in a breathtaking 2.1 seconds. But here, too, acceleration comes with a price tag. Media reports put the basic price at over 210,000 euros. And… Elon Musk has also “announced” a SpaceX rocket thruster for the Roadster.
A tri-motor all-wheel drive providing 1,100 hp should take the Model S Plaid to 320 km/h. Its range is estimated at 840 km. The super-Tesla needs less than 2.1 seconds for classical sprint to 100 km/h, according to the makers, putting it a hair’s breadth ahead of the Roadster. The basic price is 139,990 euros, which makes the top-of-the-range car 41,000 euros more expensive that the Performance Model. The first Plaids should be roaming the freeways from the end of 2021.
The Italian design studio and chassis-maker Pininfarina has been around for almost 90 years. During this time, it has designed cars for manufacturers such as Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Lancia and Peugeot. Now, with support from Rimac and Bosch, the firm is building the first car of its own – a superlative EV with spectacular statistics. The Battista accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 2 seconds. The hood conceals four electric motors delivering 1,900 hp and 2,300 Nm of torque. On the other hand, its top speed of 350 km/h is slightly less than that of the Roadster. But you won’t see that many of these electric hypercars on the roads – only 150 of them will be built, each one costing around 2 million euros.
The ID.R is Volkswagen’s first all-electric racing car. It’s also a technology flagship for the new EVs in the ID family. Two powerful electric motors with an output of 500 kW (680 hp) and all-wheel drive accelerate the ID.R from a standing start to 100 km/h in under two seconds. Its top speed is around 270 km/h. The electric sports car has pulverized records on various legendary racing tracks such as at Pikes Peak and the Goodwood Festival of Speed. On Bilster Berg it recently set a new lap record for any type of powertrain, while on the Nürburgring’s North Loop the ID.R scooped the record for the fastest lap by an electric vehicle.

UPDATE (4/11/2018): Gov. Phil Scott could decide within hours whether to sign or veto new legislation that would protect kids in Vermont from harmful chemicals in children’s products.
The bill (S.103) is on his desk, and industry lobbyists (chemical manufacturers, Associated Industries of Vermont and even some toy makers) are pressing the governor to kill it.
Just this morning, VPIRG joined several colleagues in sending a letter to the governor, urging him to sign S.103.
Check out this letter and additional resources on S.103, as well as our original post on the subject below:
Last week the Vermont Legislature gave final approval to S.103 – a bill that strengthens regulations on toxic chemicals and better protects children in Vermont. VPIRG has worked closely with our allies in the public health, business and environmental communities in supporting S.103 over the past two years. S.103 now heads to Governor Scott’s desk.
Just after the discovery of the toxic chemical PFOA in private drinking water wells in Bennington County and elsewhere around the state in 2016, the Legislature brought together a diverse working group (Act 54) to figure out how to prevent future toxic threats to public health and our environment. This group brought back more than a dozen recommendations to the Legislature at the start of the 2017-1018 legislative session, and several of those ideas are now part of the bill (S.103) now on the governor’s desk. Among other things, S.103 empowers the Commissioner of Health to ban or regulate toxins in children’s toys or other products if they are found to harm kids’ health, as well as will ensure that new drinking water wells are tested for toxic chemicals.
VPIRG has a long history of working to remove toxic chemicals from children’s products, as children are uniquely susceptible to toxic threats. Their growing bodies and developing immune systems are at greater risk of harm. And as children, they tend to put products directly into their mouths in a way that adults do not. This bill removes a lot of the red tape that stands in the way of any immediate action to protect children from chemicals by empowering the Commissioner of Health to take various steps to protect kids if highly credible, scientific data supports such action.
The unfortunate reality is that lobbyists for Associated Industries of Vermont, chemical manufacturers and even toy makers are doing everything they can to kill this bill even now. They tried to gut the bill with an amendment on the floor of the House right before the final vote. We managed to defeat the amendment thanks to some quick action on the part of advocates and key representatives, but it still won the support of 53 members of the House.
So we’re not taking anything for granted with the governor, who hasn’t said whether he’ll sign the bill or not. We don’t know exactly when the governor will get the bill, but his decision will be made soon, so if you haven’t already done so, please consider using this form to send him a quick message in support of S.103.

Charles Louis Alphonse Laveran
Charles Louis Alphonse Laveran was a French physician who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1907 for his discoveries of parasitic protozoans as causative agents of infectious diseases such as malaria and trypanosomiasis. Following his father, Louis Théodore Laveran, he took up military medicine as his profession, he obtained his medical degree from University of Strasbourg in 1867. At the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War in 1870, he joined the French Army. At the age of 29 he became Chair of Military Epidemics at the École de Val-de-Grâce. At the end of his tenure in 1878 he worked in Algeria, he discovered that the protozoan parasite Plasmodium was responsible for malaria, that Trypanosoma caused trypanosomiasis or African sleeping sickness. In 1894 he returned to France to serve in various military health services. In 1896 he joined Pasteur Institute as Chief of the Honorary Service, from where he received the Nobel Prize, he donated half of his Nobel prize money to establish the Laboratory of Tropical Medicine at the Pasteur Institute.
In 1908, he founded the Société de Pathologie Exotique. Laveran was elected to French Academy of Sciences in 1893, was conferred Commander of the National Order of the Legion of Honour in 1912. Alphonse Laveran was born at Boulevard Saint-Michel in Paris, to parents Louis Théodore Laveran and Marie-Louise Anselme Guénard de la Tour Laveran, he was an only son with one sister. His family was in a military environment, his father was a Professor of military medicine at the École de Val-de-Grâce. His mother was the daughter of an army commander. At a young age his family went to Algeria to accompany his father's service, he was educated in Paris, completed his higher education from Collège Saint Barbe and from the Lycée Louis-le-Grand. Following his father he chose military medicine and entered the Public Health School at Strasbourg in 1863. In 1866 he became a resident medical student in the Strasbourg civil hospitals. In 1867 he submitted a thesis on the regeneration of nerves and earned his medical degree from the University of Strasbourg.
Laveran was Medical Assistant-Major of the French Army at the time of Franco-Prussian War. He was posted to Metz, where the French were defeated and the place occupied by Germans, he was sent to work at Lille hospital and to the St Martin Hospital in Paris. In 1874 he qualified a competitive examination by which he was appointed to the Chair of Military Diseases and Epidemics at the École de Val-de-Grâce, a position his father had occupied, his tenure ended in 1878 and he was sent to Algeria, where he remained until 1883. From 1884 to 1889 he was Professor of Military Hygiene at the École de Val-de-Grâce. In 1894 he was appointed Chief Medical Officer of the military hospital at Lille and Director of Health Services of the 11th Army Corps at Nantes. By he was promoted to the rank of Principal Medical Officer of the First Class. In 1896 he entered the Pasteur Institute as Chief of the Honorary Service to pursue a full-time research on tropical diseases. In 1880, while working in the military hospital in Constantine, Algeria, he discovered that the cause of malaria is a protozoan, after observing the parasites in a blood smear taken from a patient who had just died of malaria.
He found the causative organism to be a protozoan which he named Oscillaria malariae, but renamed Plasmodium. This was the first time; the discovery was therefore a validation of the germ theory of diseases. Laveran worked on the trypanosomes sleeping sickness, showed once again that protozoans were responsible for the disease. Laveran was awarded the Bréant Prize of the French Academy of Sciences in 1889 and the Edward Jenner Medal of the Royal Society of Medicine in 1902 for his discovery of the malarial parasite, he received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1907. He gave half the Prize for foundation of the Laboratory of Tropical Medicine at the Pasteur Institute. In 1908 he founded the Société de pathologie exotique, he was elected to membership in the French Academy of Sciences in 1893, was conferred Commander of the National Order of the Legion of Honour in 1912. He was Honorary Director of the Pasteur Institute in 1915 on his 70th birthday, he was elected President of the French Academy of Medicine in 1920.
His work was commemorated philatelically on a stamp issued by Algeria in 1954. Laveran married Sophie Marie Pidancet in 1885, they had no children. In 1922 he died in Paris, he is interred in the Cimetière du Montparnasse in Paris. He was an atheist. Laveran's name features on the Frieze of the London School of Tropical Medicine. Twenty-three names of public health and tropical medicine pioneers were chosen to feature on the School building in Keppel Street when it was constructed in 1926. Laveran was a solitary but dedicated researcher and he wrote more than 600 scientific communications; some of his major books are: Nature parasitaire des accidents de l'impaludisme, description d'un nouveau parasite trouvé dans le sang des malades atteints de fièvre palustre.

Otto Wilhelm Madelung
Otto Wilhelm Madelung was a German surgeon, a native of Gotha. His son, physicist Erwin Madelung, discovered the Madelung constant. In 1869 he received his medical doctorate from the University of Tübingen, afterwards being assigned to a military hospital during the Franco-Prussian War, he served as a surgical assistant in Bonn, in 1873–74 worked as an assistant at the pathological clinic of Georg Eduard von Rindfleisch. In 1874 he visited the United States. In 1881 he became an assistant professor of surgery at the University of Bonn, followed by professorships at Rostock and Strasbourg. After the French takeover of Strasbourg following World War I, Madelung was relieved of his duties, he subsequently retired to Göttingen. Otto Madelung is remembered for his work with an orthopedic disorder known as Madelung's deformity, defined as a progressive curvature of the radius bone in the forearm; the condition was earlier mentioned by Guillaume Dupuytren in 1834, Auguste Nélaton in 1847, Joseph-François Malgaigne in 1855, however Madelung was the first physician to provide a comprehensive, clinical description.
Madelung described a benign form of lipomatosis, characterized by symmetrical deposits of adipose tissue in the area of the neck, shoulder girdle and upper trunk of the body. Today, this disorder goes by several names, including "benign symmetric lipomatosis", "Madelung's syndrome", "multiple symmetric lipomatosis". If the condition is confined to the neck, it is sometimes referred to by the eponym "Madelung's neck". Madelung specialized in abdominal surgery, is known for his pioneer work with intestinal anastomoses and laparotomy. Die spontane Subluxation der Hand nach Vorne.

Bernhard Naunyn was German pathologist born in Berlin. After receiving his degree at the University of Berlin in 1863, he became an assistant to pathologist Friedrich Theodor von Frerichs. Afterwards he was the head of medical clinics in Dorpat, Bern, Königsberg, Strasbourg, where he taught at the Imperial University. Naunyn is remembered for his work in experimental pathology metabolic pathology, it was during the time he spent working at Frerich's clinic in Berlin that he became interested in the metabolic pathology regarding the liver and other internal organs. In his studies of the fermentation processes of the stomach, he noticed the "contra-fermentation" properties of benzene, he discovered. With physician Otto Schultzen he discovered that benzene-derived hydrocarbons in the body had the ability to perform chemistry, not possible for chemists to achieve in a conventional laboratory. Naunyn made contributions in his research of diabetes and cholelithiasis, he published an important treatise on diabetes titled Der Diabetes Melitus, his Klinik der Cholelithiasis was translated into English by Archibald Garrod as "A treatise on cholelithiasis".
With Oskar Minkowski, he theorized that bile pigment formation was a function of liver cells alone, however this theory was disproved by John William McNee in 1913. With pharmacologist Oswald Schmiedeberg and pathologist Edwin Klebs he founded Archiv für experimentelle Pathologie und Pharmakologie, in 1896 with surgeon Jan Mikulicz-Radecki he founded Mitteilungen aus dem Grenzgebieten der Medizin und Chirurgie. A famous student of Naunyn's was Otto Loewi, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1936, his grave is preserved in the Protestant Friedhof II der Jerusalems- und Neuen Kirchengemeinde in Berlin-Kreuzberg, south of Hallesches Tor.

Ludwig Karl Martin Leonhard Albrecht Kossel was a German biochemist and pioneer in the study of genetics. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1910 for his work in determining the chemical composition of nucleic acids, the genetic substance of biological cells. Kossel isolated and described the five organic compounds that are present in nucleic acid: adenine, guanine and uracil; these compounds were shown to be nucleobases, are key in the formation of DNA and RNA, the genetic material found in all living cells. Kossel was an important influence on and collaborator with other important researchers in biochemistry, including Henry Drysdale Dakin, Friedrich Miescher, Edwin B. Hart, his professor and mentor, Felix Hoppe-Seyler. Kossel was editor of the Zeitschrift für Physiologische Chemie from 1895 until his death. Kossel conducted important research into the composition of protein, his research predicted the discovery of the polypeptide nature of the protein molecule; the Albrecht Kossel Institute for Neuroregeneration at the University of Rostock is named in his honor.
Kossel was born in Rostock, Germany as the son of the merchant and Prussian consul Albrecht Karl Ludwig Enoch Kossel and his wife Clara Jeppe Kossel. As a youth, Kossel attended the Gymnasium at Rostock, where he evidenced substantial interest in chemistry and botany. In 1872, Kossel attended the University of Strassburg to study medicine, he studied under Felix Hoppe-Seyler, head of the department of biochemistry, the only such institution in Germany at the time. He attended lectures by Anton de Bary, August Kundt, Baeyer, he completed his studies at University of Rostock, passed his German medical license exam in 1877. After completing his university studies, Kossel returned to the University of Strassburg as research assistant to Felix Hoppe-Seyler. At the time, Hoppe-Seyler was intensely interested in research concerning an acidic substance that had first been chemically isolated from pus cells by one of his former students, Friedrich Miescher, in 1869. Unlike protein, the substance contained considerable amounts of phosphorus, but with its high acidity, it was unlike any cellular substance that had yet been observed.
Kossel showed that the substance, called "nuclein", consisted of a protein component and a non-protein component. Kossel further described the non-protein component; this substance has become known as nucleic acid, which contains the genetic information found in all living cells. In 1883, Kossel left Strassburg to become Director of the Chemistry Division of the Physiological Institute at the University of Berlin. In this post, he worked under the supervision of Emil du Bois-Reymond. Kossel continued his previous work on the nucleic acids. During the period 1885 to 1901, he was able to isolate and name its five constituent organic compounds: adenine, guanine and uracil; these compounds are now known collectively as nucleobases, they provide the molecular structure necessary in the formation of stable DNA and RNA molecules. In 1895, Kossel was professor of physiology as well as director of the Physiological Institute at the University of Marburg. Around this time, he began investigations into the chemical composition of proteins, the alterations in proteins during transformation into peptone, the peptide components of cells, other investigations.
In 1896, Kossel discovered histidine worked out the classical method for the quantitative separation of the "hexone bases". He was the first to isolate theophylline, a therapeutic drug found in tea and cocoa beans. In 1901, Kossel was named to a similar post at Heidelberg University, became director of the Heidelberg Institute for Protein Investigation, his research predicted the discovery of the polypeptide nature of the protein molecule. The processes of life are like a drama, I am studying the actors, not the plot. There are many actors, it is their characters which make this drama. I seek to understand their peculiarities. Kossel was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1910 for his research in cell biology, the chemical composition of the cell nucleus, for his work in isolating and describing nucleic acids; the award was presented on 10 December 1910. In the autumn of 1911, Kossel was invited to the United States to deliver the Herter Lecture at Johns Hopkins. Traveling with his wife Luise and daughter Gertrude, he took the opportunity to travel and to visit acquaintances, one of, Eugene W. Hilgard, professor emeritus of agricultural chemistry at the University of California at Berkeley, his wife's cousin.
He visited and delivered lectures at several other universities, including the University of Chicago. On the occasion of his visit to New York City, Kossel was interviewed by a reporter from The New York Times. Kossel's English was very good, his self-effacing modesty is voluminously mentioned in the reporter's account, his Herter lecture at Johns Hopkins was titled, "The Proteins". This was the only time Kossel visited the United States. With his distinguished English pupil Henry Drysdale Dakin, Kossel investigated arginase, the ferment which hydrolyses arginine into urea and ornithine, he discovered agmatine in herring roe and devised a method for preparing it. Another of Kossel's students was American biochemist Edwin B. Hart, who would return to the United States to participate in the "Single-grain experiment" and be part of research teams that would determine the nutritive causes of anemia and goiter. Another was Otto Folin, an American che
Adolph Kussmaul was a German physician and a leading clinician of his time. He was born as the son and grandson of physicians at Graben near Karlsruhe and studied at Heidelberg, he spent two years as an army surgeon. This was followed by a period as a general practitioner before he went to Würzburg to study for his doctorate under Virchow, he was subsequently Professor of Medicine at Heidelberg, Erlangen and Strassburg. Beyond his medical skills he was active in literature, he is regarded as one of the creators of the term Biedermeier. He died in Heidelberg, his name continues to be used in eponyms. He described two medical signs and one disease which have eponymous names that remain in use: Kussmaul breathing - Very deep and labored breathing with normal, rapid or reduced frequency seen in severe Diabetic ketoacidosis. Kussmaul's sign - Paradoxical rise in the Jugular venous pressure on inhalation in Constrictive pericarditis or Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Kussmaul disease - Polyarteritis nodosa.
Named with Rudolf Robert Maier. The following eponymous terms are considered archaic: Kussmaul's coma - diabetic coma due to ketoacidosis. Kussmaul's aphasia - selective mutism. First to describe dyslexia in 1877. First to describe polyarteritis nodosa. First to describe progressive bulbar paralysis. First to diagnose mesenteric embolism. First to perform pleural gastric lavage. First to attempt oesophagoscopy and gastroscopy. First to describe the emotional symptoms of mercury exposure as a first stage preceding the physical effects.

Joseph von Mering
Josef, Baron von Mering was a German physician. Working at the University of Strasbourg, Mering was the first person to discover that one of the pancreatic functions is the production of insulin, a hormone which controls blood sugar levels. Mering was curious about the pancreas, a comma shaped organ, situated between the stomach and the small intestine. In an effort to discover its function, he removed the organ from a dog; the dog was noticed urinating on the floor, although it was house trained. Mering realised that this was a symptom of diabetes and tested the urine, found to be high in sugar, confirming his suspicion. Josef von Mering helped to discover barbiturates, a class of sedative drugs used for insomnia, epilepsy and anesthesia. In 1903, he published observations. In 1904, he helped to launch barbital under the brand name Veronal. Veronal was the first commercially available barbiturate sedative in any country. Von Mering collaborated with the chemist Emil Fischer, involved in the discovery of barbital.

Unbeknown to the vast majority of New Yorkers, a street art project has quietly been taking place under the streets of our fair city, artist by artist and flashlight by flashlight. The Underbelly Project is a reaction against the overwhelming commercialization of street art. Project organizers Workhorse and PAC called the fad for ripping off street objects “commercialism at its worst.” To rectify this supposed “commercial” situation being faced by street artists, Underbelly “safeguards” street art’s “integrity” by placing it where only the select few can get at it: in an abandoned, unused subway stations somewhere underneath the teeming pavement.
Underbelly’s organizers invited street artists to accompany them down to the site of the massive installation space and let them loose on the walls of the subway station. “Unobstructed by the pressure of commercial sales, email or daily routines, each artist painted for one full night,” the project’s so-far bare bones website recounts. Participants include such street art lights as Swoon, Faile, Michael DeFeo, and WK Interact. The results are undeniably incredible. Murals crowd decrepit stairways and platforms that haven’t seen human feet in ages. Photos of the works, lit by camera flash or flashlight, feature a necessary spotlight on each artist’s contribution. Elsewhere, the subway infrastructure still reigns.
Photos and tales of visiting the project have been trickling out lately. Ian Cox took a trip underground and reported back on Wallkandy, he describes the journey,
The air in the station was hot and humid and thick with dust, as I shone my torch around I was confronted with a huge space littered with art from many people I know and some I didn’t.
Street art photographer extraordinaire Luna Park also got to check out the Underbelly Project, and posted her results at TheStreetSpot. The photos are terrific, but the experience sounds as harrowing as it was exciting:
Stepping into the station was like stepping into a space outside of time. Utterly devoid of light, there was no way to mark the passage of time except for the occasional dull roar of a train in the distance. I had only a flashlight to light my way, yet it only barely cut into the inky blackness of the station. The air was cool and damp. My every step kicked up swirls of the rail dust that blanketed every surface. If it hadn’t been for the reassuring presence of familiar art adorning the walls, I might have quickly succumb to the illusion that I’d arrived amidst the remnants of a forgotten city.
Gothamist takes a guess at the project’s location:
According to a subway graffiti expert we spoke with, it could be the abandoned station under the South 4th Street stop in Williamsburg, or possibly under the Shell station at Utica Ave. and Fulton Street.
I don’t think I’d like to try and find it myself, though the art is quite a temptation.
Ironically, while the Underbelly Project rejects the commercialization of street art, they still embrace the popular tactics of commercial brands: they have created an insider project, allowing only those they believe to be friends to document and tour the site, and then allowing their fellow insiders to release images and “report” on the project as a cool new thing. The street art world in 2010 is surprisingly becoming more and more like the mainstream contemporary art world, with its love of insider projects fueled by ironic double-talk. The Underbelly Project is never going to be public, and while that means that collectors won’t be able to grab anything, it also reneges on one of the principal tenets of street art: Underbelly is by no means art for all.

Origin and history of ginger
Ginger is a cultivated root. This means that it does not occur naturally in the wild. Yet ginger has been around for a very long time. It was first cultivated by the Austronesians in maritime Southeast Asia, around 3000 years before Christ. Thanks to a prehistoric migration by sea, the Austronesians extended their territories from Madagascar to Hawaii until 1500 BC. And during these migrations the ginger root came along. Around the first century BC, ginger first arrived in Europe via India. Nowadays most of the world ginger production takes place in India.
Properties of Ginger
Ginger is related to Turmeric, Cardamom and Galanga. Ginger is used as a herbal medicine and a versatile spice. It is used in teas, as a flavoring for vegetables, in candy and alcoholic beverages, but also processed in vinegar (such as pickles).

Why income taxes can never be fair or workable
Despite thousands of tweaks to income tax codes, it has proved impossible to define income without providing room for evasion. Efforts to close loopholes have simply led to ever more detailed and arbitrary provisions. There is in practice no clear, delineating line between business expense and private expense. In terms of morality, there is even less dividing the two. Under the natural law a person has as much right to spend his money on personal, religious, charitable purposes as he does on business. There is no moral justification for the government to seize some of his money and not the rest.
The cost of assessment and collection
The cost of collecting income taxes adds up to a grievously high percentage of GDP. Promising young men and women, who should be training as engineers, software programmers, architects, chemists and doctors, instead become accountants and lawyers. Employees who could easily make more money and contribute more wealth to the economy by working for themselves are intimidated by the paperwork into working for others and earning far less. Every year millions of small businesses fail due to the administrative and emotional overhead of complying with income tax and payroll tax obligations. Bureaucrats plague the people with audits, intrusions, arbitrariness and poor communication. Each year trillions of man-hours are wasted preparing tax returns instead of working out ways to provide better products and services. The opportunity cost to humanity is grievous.

The beautiful Quattro Restaurant in downtown Houston is a fabulous place to dine. Chef Maurizio Ferrarese tells me that every dish on his Italian menu has a story, including his homemade recipe for Texas Akaushi Beef Lasagna, which immediately caught my attention! I’m a huge fan of the HeartBrand Akaushi and lasagna, so it’s no surprise the two together are a match made in culinary heaven. Lasagna is a specialty of Chef Ferrarese — and this one is loosely based on his mother’s recipe…lasagna she used to make every Sunday that became a tradition in his family.
At Quattro, both the pasta and sauce are made entirely from scratch! Watch the video to learn more about the health benefits of the Akaushi breed, as told by HeartBrand’s president, Jordan Beeman. It has a significant source of Oleic acid (found in Olive oil), an essential amino acid that gives it its distinct buttery, rich flavor.
Quattro is also a haven for seafood. They try to source as much from the Gulf of Mexico as possible, allowing for their menu to be ultra-fresh! Risottos are especially noteworthy here as well. Try this recipe for Green Asparagus Risotto with Jumbo Lump Crab from Chef Ferrarese. It’s a keeper!

Plastics are used in nearly all of the major industries. Automobiles, medical equipment, and computers (among many other things) all use them. They have become essential to the manufacturing of such a large number of products, that the creation, molding and distribution of plastics are a sort of mother industry, benefiting all of the others.
PolyClean USA has been a part of this industry since 1999. Our mobile plastic servicing platform offers a variety of services designed to improve the overall quality of our clients’ pellet inventories. One of the most important tasks we perform is the screening of plastic pellets.
What is screening?
When a manufacturer receives its pellets, they have already been formed into polymers and diced up into usable pieces. Sometimes, however, pellets get cut incorrectly. As a result, some are too big and some are too small. Foreign matter can get introduced as well. All of these factors can lower the overall quality of the material. The only way to improve it again is to remove all the trash. Separating the good from the bad is called screening.
How does screening work?
The basic principle of screening out unnecessary particles is simple and already familiar to you. It happens everywhere. Your kids probably filter out pails full of sand to find sea shells. Pasta requires you to strain out the water. The screens on your window let in light, sound and breeze but stop leaves and bugs.
When we do it, the process is a little more complicated. We load the pellets onto a screen equipped to use a progressively diminishing gyratory motion. Basically, the screen moves in such a way that it shakes down the pellets, forcing them to spread out over. Just as they do with your potato chips, all the “crumbs” then settle to the bottom where they drop through the screen and are collecting for recycling or disposal.
Unlike many machines, our ROTEX screeners do not bounce the pellets. Although intuition tells us that adding a vertical component helps somehow, screening the plastics can only really happen when they are in contact with the screen. Using exclusively horizontal movement, our pellets remain on the screen for the entirety of the process. This makes our method very effective.
What do you call the leftover material?
The “stuff” that ends up getting removed from the pile can be called lots of things. Pellets that aren’t shaped correctly are referred to as “miscuts.” Miscuts can be any size or shape that just isn’t right.
“Fines” are small remnants of pellets that get torn or otherwise damaged during manufacturing or shipping. “Snake skins” are long ribbonlike strips that are formed when pellets get dragged along hot surfaces. “Fluff” is a collection of ribbons that are smaller than snake skins (called “angel hair”) that collect into piles.
Anything else that we screen out of the material, such as dust or wood particles, we just call “garbage.”
If you have a need for a plastic pellet screening, contact us today. Our mobile platform is designed to come to you. Don’t worry about transporting your material. Don’t worry about whether we’ll do a good job. We’ll bring the equipment to you and take care of it all in-house. We only leave when you’re satisfied. Click here to request a quote.

Green Marketing, On Social Media Works Best On Younger People
According to the Mintel, a company that tracks trends in the whole world, if you have a green service or product, you should use social media that target younger people. They are more prone to take an action and they have a bigger social circle. According to the same company, 24% of people who bought a green product, did it because they wanted to show other people that they care about the environment. 20% admitted that they mixed recyclable waste with ordinary garbage.
This proves that many people don’t actually care about the environment. They do this just because they think it is ‘’cool’’ and their friends are doing it. Their behavior isn’t long and it can quickly disappear. But, younger people are much better area for green cultivation.
The Mintel company, found that 14% of young people (18-24 years old) used some green product just because their friend posted something ‘’green’’ on a website. 12% of the same people, said that they followed a green company on Twitter and like it on Facebook. This means that many people will try to live green as long they are under social pressure. When the pressure disappears, their green behavior will disappear as well.
Younger people, between 18 and 34 years, have 300 friends on Facebook. The range of influence is much higher among these people than on adults. They have better social circle and they have better communication. Because of these two things, paying attention to younger people, and preparing them for green living is crucial. We can expect much better success that will last much longer.

GAROUA, Cameroon - Members of Task Force Darby completed a road repair project Jan. 25 by using a method called Do-Nou.
TF Darby service members are serving at Contingency Location Garoua, Cameroon, in a support role for the Cameroon military's fight against the violent extremist organization Boko Haram.
Because of the rainy season, TF Darby has dealt with huge holes and washed sections in the roads, which lead up to the base.
"The purpose of the project was to provide mobility to U.S. resupply vehicles in the rainy season, encourage Cameroon Air Force personnel to utilize the technique on other portions of the CAF base and to demonstrate the technique to community leaders," said 1st Lt. Sean Donahue TF Darby engineer from 1st Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, and native of Helena, Montana.
According to Donahue, he researched various solutions and decided on the Do-Nou process.
"The Do-Nou is a labor intensive method that uses geo-textile materials (sand bags) and hand tools to create a solid sub-base for highly un-trafficable portions of dirt roads," Donahue said.
Donahue believes this method, derived from the Japanese, will prevent washed out roads.
"This technique was pioneered by Japanese engineers and has been introduced into 16 different countries as of 2013," said Donahue. "Do-Nou is effective on roads that have 250 or less daily vehicle passes, such as local roads in rural communities or the resupply roads utilized by Contingency Location Garoua."
Leaders from nearby villages came to witness construction to assess whether or not to adopt Do-Nou themselves.
"Local leaders were invited to see a live demonstration of the method and to ask questions about the method so that they could potentially bring the ideas they learned back to their own communities. The demonstration provided them an opportunity to ask questions and see the methods and techniques used first hand," Donahue said.
Another reason Donahue says he chose the Do-Nou technique was to make road repair as feasible as possible.
"This method was chosen due to conditions that face rural villagers in any location that has a rainy season. The road becomes impassable with a high volume of rain. However, there is no heavy machinery available to perform road repair or construction. This method was chosen due to a lack of resources available to CL Garoua and restrictions about where our contractors can operate," said Donahue.
Training for both TF Darby service members and the Cameroonian airmen was conducted before the actual project.
"A total of 24 U.S. military members and 15 Cameroonian Air Force participated in the Do-Nou road project," said Staff Sgt. Steven Betancourt, noncommissioned officer in charge of the project from 1-87 and native of Maunabo, Puerto Rico.
"In December, TF Darby Engineer, 1st Lt. Donahue, the project officer in charge, conducted training of each stage of the Do-Nou project for U.S. Forces," said Betancourt.
"On 18 January, U.S. forces trained approximately 15 Cameroonian Air Force leaders," said Betancourt.
The all-volunteer U.S. force had different reasons why they agreed to participate.
"I wanted to do something that would help strengthen the U.S. relationship with Cameroon," said 1st Lt. Carson Hoshall, TF Darby's executive officer and native of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
"This was just another small way to do that," Hoshall said.
"Another reason was that I truly believe in the potential of this construction method. It has a lot of potential to vastly improve the transportation system here in Garoua. Finally, I wanted the hands on experience of actually doing the construction to see how it was done," said Hoshall.

However, this simple concoction also has a number of known health benefits. Its soothing effect is just one among many discussed below.
Eases Digestive Problems
Because of its ability to cure Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), constipation, stomach aches, nausea, and other digestive problems, peppermint tea is called the “stomach healer”. Its muscle relaxing properties makes it a recommended drink for people suffering from stomach cramps and inflammation of the digestive tract. The ingredient responsible for this healing trait is menthol. Babies with colic were once treated with peppermint tea. Nowadays, this method is no longer advised for infants and children because a choking sensation can be induced by menthol.
Takes Away Bad Breath
What is the very first ingredient of toothpastes and mouthwashes that comes to mind? The answer is usually peppermint. Any type is known to reduce bad breath and also cure gum disease responsible for the former. With the same concept, one of the recognized health benefits of peppermint tea is improved oral health. Some people even believe that constant intake can lead to noticeably fresher breath. While brushing seems to be more convenient to your routine, drinking peppermint tea is worth a shot, if everything else has failed.
Protection from Disease and Infection
As an immune booster, peppermint tea strengthens one’s body against common diseases and infections. Some vitamins and minerals like Vitamin B, calcium, potassium, and phosphorous can be found in every cup. Because of menthol, it also relieves symptoms of common colds and flu. Good news, it also prevents a person from getting infected again. Some people also claim that it also controls the effects of mild asthma. Peppermint tea can be a complementary source for the right immune builders, but it is always helpful to practice other healthy habits for a healthier you.
Because of its aroma and minty taste, one of the health benefits of peppermint tea is to give your body a calming effect. Regular drinkers are reported to have fewer anxiety attacks and higher tolerance to stress. Meanwhile, those who have problems sleeping can drink a cup to have a better night’s sleep; this effect is also credited to peppermint tea’s soothing properties. A few studies have shown that there is a direct relationship between peppermint tea’s stress relieving properties to its immune boosting properties.
These and many more health benefits of drinking peppermint tea await those who wish to have a cup. As with any other tea type, drinking peppermint tea promotes an organic way of maintaining one’s health.

Moscow, Oct 14 (IANS/RIA Novosti) Iran does not rule out handing over uranium enrichment for its nuclear reactor in Tehran to some other country if it gets firm guarantees of fuel supplies, the Iranian foreign ministry has said.
"If a guarantee is provided to supply the 20 percent [enriched] fuel for the Tehran Research Reactor, our officials are ready to enter talks about 20 percent enrichment," the ministry's spokesperson Ramin Mehmanparast said at a conference in Kazakhstan.
But he added that Tehran reserves the right to continue its own enrichment programme, Press TV reported Saturday.
A new deal for Iran is in the works with the five permanent Security Council members - Russia, the US, Britain, China and France - and Germany, offering easing of economic sanctions against Iran in exchange for caps on uranium enrichment in the country, The Guardian said earlier.
The deal may be put on the table after the presidential elections in the US Nov 6, the report said.
Economic sanctions hindering Iranian oil exports have caused an almost 40-percent devaluation of the Iranian rial in recent weeks, which even prompted street protests by local small merchants, normally the core constituency of the ruling Islamic regime.

The flood of AFM project packages has started (how many of them actually happen is a question for another day), and FilmNation has announced it will handle international sales for the Jonathan Glazer-directed Under the Skin. Scarlett Johansson has been attached to star in the science fiction film scripted by Walter Campbell and Glazer, the latter of whom directed Sexy Beast. She plays an alien on earth, disguised as a mesmerizing woman who uses her voracious sexuality to scour remote highways and desolate scenery to snare human prey. It’s based on a Michel Faber novel. Said FilmNation CEO Glen Basner: “We’re so excited to be working on this arrestingly original movie. How could we pass up the chance to work with a visionary director like Jonathan, especially when combined with the intriguing notion of Scarlett Johansson as a ruthless alien seductress?” Nick Wechsler is producing with James Wilson and Film4’s Tessa Ross is exec producing and the UK Film Council and Scottish Screen are also involved.
FilmNation hopes to get started in the spring, but they haven’t been the only one who’s noticed Johansson. She’s in the mix for Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby, Lionsgate wanted her for Pride, Prejudice and Zombies. Most pressing, she’s front runner to star for Cameron Crowe opposite Matt Damon in We Bought A Zoo at Fox.

A young black man believes he fell victim to racial profiling after some blocks from his home were handcuffed by Montreal police on Saturday because a reflector was missing on his bike.
• read more: Affected MP in Parliamentary Profile
“I hear stories around me, but I never thought it would be me,” Browd breathed a sigh of relief.
On the way to play music with a friend, the 27-year-old sound engineer found a black man arrested at around 2 p.m.
“What are you waiting for to start filming?” One of the agents would have introduced him.
A patrol was notified that a reflector was missing from Proddle Hounho’s bicycle. A police officer asked to identify himself, which prompted the Montreal to question the misunderstanding.
When he started filming on his cell phone, he was tied up and handcuffed against the wall of a Vietnamese pub. The search, which lasted about 4 minutes, involved at least three police officers. Montreal, who returned to the scene of the intervention on Sunday, had some marks on his wrist. He should get a ticket in the mail soon.
“I was trembling. The policeman told me to stop. They don’t like people who are so trembling,” he said. Houn Ho recalled that he had experienced such a situation for the first time.
One of the passers-by who saw the scene and filmed a game was Mr. He encouraged Hon Ho to appeal to the Center for Research on Race Relations (CRARR).
With the organization’s support, the man from Benin wants to file a complaint with police ethics and human rights commissions.
“This is a very bad, excessive intervention, as he describes it,” commented Fo Naimi, director general of CRARR.
The actions of the Montreal City (SPVM) Police Department are “clear” due to the color of his skin, Mr. Haunho believes.
Events take place very close to his home. “I have a small family and I’m starting to get scared,” says the 10-month-old girl’s father. I ‘m thinking of moving. “
“The SPVM has taken note of the video and these incidents are being taken seriously,” the police force responds. So the neighboring station commander will take the time to analyze the facts considering the circumstances and context of the intervention. “

Make it work or tear it down.
Chicago’s Old Main Post Office, straddling the eastern end of the Eisenhower Expressway, has been sitting empty now for two decades.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants to use the city’s power of eminent domain to gain title to the enormous structure, and that sounds right to us. The current owner, British developer Bill Davies, has done nothing with the Art Deco building for eight years, even as that corner of the Loop struggles to thrive.
Plans have come and gone. Enough already.
Emanuel has said he wants to tear the building down; he wants to take it over and solicit bids to redevelop it. But there must be serious doubt at this point as to whether anybody will ever hit upon a practical new use for this white elephant from a lost day — back when mail, not email, was king.
We’re talking 2.5 million square feet of floor space. Sixty acres.
The entire neighborhood could be so much more vibrant, dynamic and commercially desirable. But the empty post office sucks in the energy like a black hole.
Emanuel wants to get started on requests for proposals immediately, with a winner to be given the go-ahead by this summer. Whichever developer gets its hands on the project will be expected to move forward without help from taxpayers.
Terrific. But let’s also start a clock ticking. If the city and a developer can’t put together a final use for this building in some short but reasonable span of time — let’s say a year — how about we just tear it down?
Don’t yell at us. We’d hate to see that, too. The old Post Office was designed by the same architects who gave us the Field Museum, the Merchandise Mart and Union Station. It’s close to all sorts of transportation links. Ward Miller, executive director of Preservation Chicago, says, “This is an amazing structure in every regard. We would like to see this building retained and reused.”
But even the most architecturally significant building has to serve a purpose. And right now the old Post Office is in danger of demolition by neglect. It has been cited for building code violations.
Everybody has had an idea for this thing, and every idea has gone bust. Make it a retail mall, or a casino, or an indoor auto mall, or a high-speed rail terminal, or a parking lot, or a water park, or a hotel, or an office building, or the biggest condo building in the world, or an exhibition hall for the hardware industry.
Allowing a municipality to move in and condemn a privately owned building is a dicey proposition. Where does such government intrusion end? Eminent domain is a power easily abused.
But the coercive use of eminent domain in this case is entirely justified. Two decades is a more than reasonable amount of time to let private developers get their act together, which they have not.
In the meantime, the old Post Office looms empty and dark above the expressway, a message to everybody driving by that Chicago doesn’t have its act together.

In recent years, there has been growing disillusion in with globalization in liberal, Western states as as working class citizens watched their jobs leave them for developing countries. Their views were reflected in the rise of isolationist politics across the world. The United States recently elected Donald Trump, who ran on a platform of “Make America Great Again”, and in Europe, the Brexit referendum and the increasing popularity of parties like France’s National Front and Germany’s AfD have shown a similar trend of isolationist politics. The greatest flaw in this isolationist trend, however, is that it will not solve the unemployment problem that its supporters are facing, nor is globalization a reversible phenomenon. The loss of many blue collar jobs stems mainly from three factors. The first is that technological developments have permanently eradicated certain assembly line, mindless jobs. In addition, emerging countries such as China, India, and Brazil have acquired the power to compete with developed countries, thus in order to maintain competitivity, companies from developed, Western countries have had to export their labor to cheaper areas of the world. And finally, many workers in developed nations, especially in the United States, are not trained well enough for the tasks required of them because of the lack of worker training programs.
A disintegration of the liberal international order championed by Western democracies is dangerous for a variety of reasons. If Western countries turn increasingly inwards, this leads to more room on the global stage for states like Russia and China to flex their political muscles. The progress made since World War II towards free and fair trade, human rights, and other liberal ideals will start declining. In addition, with limited international cooperation, international security would be more difficult. Without an emphasis on alliances and the sharing of intelligence, it would be much more difficult to stop terrorism and other international security threats. Larger issues like climate change and nuclear non-proliferation are also impossible to solve without close international cooperation. A decrease in international economic cooperations would slow down economic growth for all nations as well since there are virtually no large corporations who keep their design, manufacturing, and retail all within one country.
Despite the rather grim forecast, developed countries can create jobs for those who have been laid off so that the idea of isolationism becomes less appealing, since it is neither possible nor preferable to bring already-exported jobs back. The greatest asset of liberal democracies is their vast intellectual wealth. Because of their open political systems, experts and intellectuals around the world have flocked to universities across the U.S. and Europe. The governments of these democracies must harness this resource to continue innovating so that liberal democracies remain ahead of the curve by increasing funding for higher education institutions and grants for rising entrepreneurs. Perhaps more difficult for many developed nations like the United States is the worker training required to fill the jobs created by new innovations and technologies. Other liberal democracies like the United States can learn from Germany’s vocational education and apprenticeship programs. Through these programs, young people may start working shortly after graduating high school in companies that require skilled labor. This would be a change in mentality for especially the United States, which encourages all students to go to university, regardless of the students’ personal inclinations. Finally, many government restrictions and taxes put on businesses in developed countries must be lifted so that it is as economically viable for companies to build in their home countries as it would be for them to build in nations like China and India.
There is no quick solution to the changing job markets across the world and there is no reversing the changes that have already occurred. But, if liberal democracies can use their assets to innovate and remain competitive in the global market, there is a strong chance that the international order they created will endure.

In Texas State Parks and the CCC: The Legacy of the Civilian Conservation Corps, Cynthia Brandimarte has mined the organization’s archives, as well as those of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission and the Texas Department of Transportation, to compile a rich visual record of how this New Deal program left an indelible stamp on many of the parks we still enjoy today.
Some fifty thousand men were enrolled in the CCC in Texas. Between 1933 and 1942, they constructed trails, cabins, concession buildings, bathhouses, dance pavilions, a hotel, and a motor court. Before they arrived, the state’s parklands consisted of fourteen parks on about 800 acres, but by the end of World War II, CCC workers had helped create a system of forty-eight parks on almost 60,000 acres throughout Texas.
Accompanied by many never-published images that reveal all aspects of the CCC in Texas, from architectural plans to camp life, Texas State Parks and the CCC covers the formation and development of the CCC and its design philosophy; the building of the parks and the daily experiences of the workers; the completion and management of the parks in the first decades after the war; and the ongoing process of maintaining and preserving the iconic structures that define the rustic, handcrafted look of the CCC.
With a call for greater appreciation of these historical resources, especially in light of the recent Bastrop fire, which threatened one of the state’s most popular CCC-era destinations, Brandimarte profiles twenty-nine parks, providing a descriptive history of each and information on its CCC company, the dates of CCC activity, and the CCC-built structures still existing within the park.

National Center for
2HKY: NMR solution structure of human RNase 7
The flexible and clustered lysine residues of human ribonuclease 7 are critical for membrane permeability and antimicrobial activity
J. Biol. Chem. (2007) 282 p.4626-4633
The ubiquitous ribonucleases (RNases) play important roles in RNA metabolism, angiogenesis, neurotoxicity, and antitumor or antimicrobial activity. Only the antimicrobial RNases possess high positively charged residues, although their mechanisms of action remain unclear. Here, we report on the role of cationic residues of human RNase7 (hRNase7) in its antimicrobial activity. It exerted antimicrobial activity against bacteria and yeast, even at 4 degrees C. The bacterial membrane became permeable to the DNA-binding dye SYTOX(R) Green in only a few minutes after bactericidal RNase treatment. NMR studies showed that the 22 positively charged residues (Lys(18) and Arg(4)) are distributed into three clusters on the surface of hRNase7. The first cluster, K(1),K(3),K(111),K(112), was located at the flexible coil near the N terminus, whereas the other two, K(32),K(35) and K(96),R(97),K(100), were located on rigid secondary structures. Mutagenesis studies showed that the flexible cluster K(1),K(3),K(111),K(112), rather than the catalytic residues His(15), Lys(38), and His(123) or other clusters such as K(32),K(35) and K(96),R(97),K(100), is critical for the bactericidal activity. We suggest that the hRNase7 binds to bacterial membrane and renders the membrane permeable through the flexible and clustered Lys residues K(1),K(3),K(111),K(112). The conformation of hRNase7 can be adapted for pore formation or disruption of bacterial membrane even at 4 degrees C.

Scandinavian power quartet LEACH is closing in for a kill with a masterpiece of – quite literally – punching thrash/death'n'roll. As a first harbinger of the upcoming album New Model Of Disbelief, the band has just delivered their brand new video single Gone To Waste.
Kicking it off with a crushing main riff and frantically aggressive vocals by singer/guitarist Markus Wikander, the single manages to move on to its rich, touching chorus in an almost seamless fashion.
The visuals presented in the music video are perfectly set to underline this ceremony of opposites: from the band’s sweaty, hard rockin’ performance amidst the eerie atmosphere of a midnight parking lot to the refined elegance of female movement looking for the perfect swing in a blood-soaked fight club setting, as presented by Swedish pro wrestlers Betty Rose and Sixt.
LEACH's fourth album New Model Of Disbelief will be released digitally and as CD and LP on April 19, 2024. Christian Silver at Studiomega (Sepultura, Kreator, Soilwork), who already took great care of the band’s previous record Lovely Light of Life, acted as the driving force in terms of recording, mixing and mastering once again.

Passenger wrongly blamed over David Cameron gun gaffe
The passenger who discovered a gun belonging to David Cameron’s bodyguard in the lavatory of a British Airways plane was threatened with being removed from the flight, a holidaymaker has claimed.
Ben McDonald, 47, said that the man who found the gun had grown extremely agitated and that airline staff had intended to remove him from the flight before passengers intervened.
Mr Cameron’s police bodyguard has been put on restricted duties after leaving the gun and both his passport and that of the former prime minister in one of the lavatories on a flight from New York to London.
Mr McDonald said that the man who had found the 9mm Glock 17 pistol appeared shaken.

President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he was “dissatisfied” with Attorney General Bill Barr after the Justice Department’s investigation into the previous administration found no wrongdoing and ended quietly without criminal charges.
Trump made comments to Newsmax television, in which he also declined to say whether he would keep Bar as attorney general for a potential second term.
“I can’t comment on that, it’s too early. I’m not happy, with all the evidence I had, I can tell you. I’m not happy, “Trump said in an interview.
Trump has praised and criticized Barr in past interviews and used the Justice Department as a staff to seek out political enemies.
Recently, news emerged that the Justice Department had completed an investigation commissioned by Bar to “unmask”
However, the Ministry of Justice found no evidence of wrongdoing and refused to publish its report publicly or file charges. The Washington Post was the first to report the news.
A Bar-appointed federal prosecutor has completed his review without finding evidence of wrongdoing, according to a source with direct knowledge of the investigation and without interviewing former CIA Director John Brennan, NBC News reported earlier.
Brennan told NBC News that he had not been interviewed by the prosecutor, U.S. Attorney John Bash of West Texas, or anyone involved in the investigation. Another key figure in the revealing dispute, who declined to be named, told NBC News that he had not been interviewed by Justice Department officials.
Bash was tapped by Bar to lead the “unmasking” probe in May. It began by separating the Connecticut attorney John Durham’s investigation into the origins of Special Attorney Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
The so-called unmasking means a request to remove the edits of classified materials in order to better understand the document. In this case, it is about Americans whose names appear in intelligence reports generated by electronic wiretapping of foreign nationals.
Bash’s team was tasked with investigating whether Obama officials, such as Brennan, then-FBI Director James Comey, or then-Vice President Joe Biden, did the wrong thing when they asked for the identity of an unnamed intelligence official who turned out to be Trump’s incoming adviser. on National Security Michael Flynn.
It is not clear how many, if any, Obama administration officials have been interviewed by the Bash team, but it is possible that the Bash team had enough material from other sources, such as documents, a source of knowledge about how they are conducted. similar investigations, told NBC News.
The end of Bash’s investigation means that it is unlikely that Trump will be able to point to politically motivated and improperly initiated investigations into his campaign in 2016 before election day.
Bash announced his resignation from the Ministry of Justice last week, citing his desire to pursue a private practice. Durham said he would not submit a report before the November 3rd election.

As Donald Trump continues to surge in the polls, a staple of Trump’s campaign rhetoric remains his emphasis on bringing manufacturing jobs back to the United States and confronting foreign competitors like China and Mexico over their unfair trading practices.
For instance, in an interview with Sean Hannity Tuesday night Trump said:
We have to bring back our jobs back from China. As an example, we have to bring manufacturing back. You look at Japan with the boats that come in pouring in with cars—you know what we send Japan? We send them beef. We send them wheat, we send them corn…
Ok? I want American cars. If Japanese companies build here, that’s fine. But you know what? I don’t want to see boats pulling into Los Angeles because I saw boats the other day that were the biggest boats I’d ever seen—loaded up, you wouldn’t even believe the thing could float so many cars. And then you see these cars just [one after another] boom, boom. They’re not made here. How is that helping us? I don’t want cars made in Mexico. I love Mexico, I love the Mexican people… I have a great relationship with Mexico… [B]ut that doesn’t help us from the standpoint that their leaders are so much sharper, and I use the word cunning—they’re more cunning than our leaders…
They make cars in Mexico, and they just send them across the border. How does that help us?
Trade expert Clyde Prestowitz—who served as a trade negotiator for Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton—has documented how other nations are outsmarting U.S. leaders on trade.
For instance, with regards to Trump’s example of Japan—Prestowitz writes that through its dealership structure, Japan has closed its market to U.S. car exports: “In Japan, however, the dealers are owned or controlled by the makers. They sell only the cars from a particular maker and do not represent any outsiders.”
By contrast, Prestowitz writes that, “by law, U.S. dealers are independent of the auto makers and are free to sell any brand they wish. Exporters to the United States thus find it easy quickly to achieve national distribution of their vehicles.”
Polling data shows that Trump’s message on trade will resonate across the American electorate but that Republican voters—in particular—are the group most skeptical of international trade deals.
A recent YouGov poll shows that Republican voters—at higher rates than Democrats—think that free-trade agreements make U.S. wages lower, have resulted in job losses, and have hurt their household. When asked whether free trade helps or slows down the economy, Republicans by nearly a two-to-one margin believed that it slows the economy down (42 percent vs. 22 percent).
A 2014 Pew Poll similarly found that Americans believe free-trade deals reduce wages rather than raise wages by more than a two-to-one margin (45 percent vs. 17 percent); they believe that free-trade deals destroy jobs rather than create them by nearly a three-to-one margin (55 percent vs. 20 percent).
Trade, like immigration, represents an area where Republican leaders and donors are in a state of deep disagreement with Republican voters.
For instance, Republican leadership made the passage of a global trade and governance pact one of its highest legislative priority. According to a senior Republican Senate aide speaking to Breitbart News, “Republican leadership has never pushed for anything harder or more aggressively in my entire Congressional career than to deliver 60 votes for Obamatrade.”
As Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) wrote after the passage of the fast-track trade authority, “Washington broke arms and heads to get that 60th vote—not one to spare—to impose on the American people a plan which imperils their jobs, wages, and control over their own affairs. It is remarkable that so much energy has been expended on advancing the things Americans oppose, and preventing the things Americans want.”
Trump’s stance against globalist trade policies and his support for bringing back American manufacturing distinguishes him from other top-polling candidates in the Republican field.
For instance, none of the other candidates have made cracking down on foreign trade a top issue. In fact, the two candidates favored by Republican donors, Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio, have both embraced the global trade pact negotiated by President Obama and have expressed support for his larger trade agenda as a whole.
In a May 13th address to the Council on Foreign Relations, Rubio even said that the passage of Obama’s trade pact and fast-track authority was central to his foreign policy doctrine. “My foreign policy doctrine consists of three pillars,” Rubio said. Global trade deals, Rubio explained, represents “the second pillar” of his doctrine: “Millions of the best jobs in this century will depend on international trade. It is more important than ever that Congress give the president trade promotion authority so we can finalize the Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership.”
In addition to declaring that global trade was one of the three pillars of his foreign policy doctrine, Rubio also argued that global trade was one of three pillars to his Asia policy in particular. As he wrote in an op-ed earlier this year that appeared in the Wall Street Journal: “There are three pillars to an Asia policy for a new American century… The U.S.-Japan alliance is at the center of all three pillars.”
The fast-track procedure to expedite the deals such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA), which would expand immigration and foreign worker programs, passed the Senate with 60 votes—meaning that if even one vote switched, the measure would have failed. Rubio, having endorsed the bill, was of course one of the 60 votes. However, as Breitbart News has investigated, Rubio has yet to provide any specific evidence that he actually read the deal.
Rubio’s position on trade is supported by publications like the Wall Street Journal and commentators like George Will, who have all strongly backed so-called free-trade policies, which Donald Trump has argued would hollow out the middle class.
So far, in the first Fox News Republican debate, though a number of candidates on stage disagreed with Trump on trade, none of them raised it as an issue—suggesting that they might be familiar with the polling data that shows open door trade policies are a tough sell to Republican voters.
