The companies say the bloc needs to set a reduction target of at least 90% compared to 1990 levels to avoid passing “irreversible tipping points”.
Some of the continent’s biggest businesses, including Coca Cola Europe, Unilever and Velux, have called on the EU to slash its greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040.
The companies say the bloc needs to set a reduction target of at least 90% compared to 1990 levels to avoid passing “irreversible tipping points”, and that no more than 10% of this should come from carbon removals.
It also comes as the European Commission approaches its June 2024 deadline for announcing a formal climate target.
The EU can achieve the proposed 2040 objective by following 10 principles, according to the CLG report.
These include accelerating electrification and phasing out fossil fuels, boosting EU and national budgets for climate and nature, and embedding competitive sustainability into the bloc’s policies.
The group also urges the EU to rapidly reduce emissions from the buildings sector and adopt a realistic and evidence-based approach to carbon removals.
The EU’s “much needed leadership”
A 90% reduction target would put the EU on a level of ambition aligned with the Paris Agreement, according to CLG Europe, in which countries aim to stop global warming from surpassing 1.5°C.
“In setting a 2040 target, the EU can provide much needed leadership and give clear market and policy signals for climate action,” said Tim Christophersen, vice president of climate action at Salesforce.
“We welcome a target that reflects the speed, urgency and benefits of near-term action, for people, the climate and nature,” he added.
A spokesperson for the European Commission said it’s currently “premature” to speculate on possible emission reduction levels for 2040.
“What is already clear, is that climate will indeed remain at the core of the EU’s policy agenda for the coming decades,” the spokesperson said, pointing to the emissions reduction targets already set into EU law and the bloc’s commitment to become “the first climate neutral continent by 2050”.
“As President [Ursula] von der Leyen has always said, the EU Green Deal is Europe’s growth strategy,” the spokesperson added.

Alfa Romeo introduced this model on the 17th May 1985 and celebrated the factory’s 75. anniversary whith it.
This was the last rear wheel driven Alfa (with the exception of SZ/RZ). Its predecessor was the Giulia, wherefrom the 75 gets all the technical solutions and all parameters.
The chassis was designed by Ermanno Cressoni, who was the leader of Alfa Romeo Centro Stile at that time. Cressoni made a beautiful chop-styled bodywork. The interior acts on the exterior, so it was made up by straight lines and sharp corners. The solution of the handbrake (it looks like a throttle regulator of an airplane) was fascinating at that time and nowadays too. Other design gag was the switchers of the electric window and sunroof which were placed to the rooftop.
The basic equipment was very luxuriant, and the trip computer, the air conditioner, the sunroof, the alloy wheels, leather seats and sperr differential were all optional extras.
A good many Alfisti think that the 75 is the last real Alfa Romeo, because few month after the introduction Fiat Auto merged Alfa Romeo and started to phase in the platform technology, Alfa had to leave the transaxle system.

In a recent interview, Priyanka Chopra opened up about her plans to have children and even addressed rumours of divorce with Nick Jonas,
One of the most celebrated couples in showbiz, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas has been setting couple goals ever since they started dating and married in 2018. Both stars in their own rights and with very demanding careers, the couple spend a lot of time apart from each other. Yet, they manage to take time out and spend important days with each other.
Priyanka recently opened up about her marriage to Nick and how they would want to have children soon.
While speaking to Vanity Fair recently, Priyanka said, "They’re a big part of our desire for the future. By God’s grace, when it happens, it happens."
The actress also reacted to divorce rumours which sparked in 2021 when Priyanka decided to drop the 'Jonas' surname from her Instagram handle. Priyanka Chopra drops Jonas from her name on social media, fans speculate trouble in marriage
Without directly addressing the incident, Priyanka said, "It’s just a professional hazard. Because of the noise of social media, because of the prevalence that it has in our lives, I think it seems a lot larger than it is. I think that we give it a lot more credence in real life, and I don’t think it needs that."

A judge ordered Kodak Black to spend 30 days in rehab for violating the conditions of his pretrial release.
Kodak Black, whose real name is Bill Kapri, initially failed to submit a drug test on February 3. He took the test a few days later on February 8. It came back positive for Fentanyl, leading to the arrest warrant.
Authorities sought to put Kodak Black back behind bars, but his attorney Bradford Cohen successfully argued to keep the 25-year-old rapper out of jail. Cohen raised doubts about the drug test, suggesting there could’ve been a mix-up at the lab.
Judge Barbara Duffy sided with Cohen, agreeing to let Kodak Black enter rehab on March 7. Cohen also denied a local news report claiming his client refused a hair drug test.
“Of course channel 10 got it wrong,” Cohen wrote on Instagram. “No one refused a Hair sample. Pretrial does not provide Hair sample services. But I am glad @kodakblack will get an opportunity to take a break from his hectic schedule and focus on his physical health.”
He continued, “Great kid, great philanthropist and as usual a portion of his Rolling Loud pay check will go to the Meadow Pollack scholarship fund at Nova Southeastern Law School, that he set up last year. @local10news You often see news reports that aren’t accurate because they want those subscribers, and won’t report on the good in the community and the good Kodak does there as well. Doesn’t make for a good story.”
Kodak Black is scheduled to perform at Rolling Loud California on Friday (March 3). The three-day festival takes place at the Hollywood Park Grounds in Inglewood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 19-year-old mage Lady Lyriana Batavia is third in line to the Seat of Power in Bamaria: a position of wealth and privilege, but not safety. Bamaria falls under the rule of the Lumerian Empire, survivors of a celestial war whose island sank in the Drowning. Now all Lumerians submit to the Emperor and his strict laws about magic. He decides what magic can be practiced and what powers remain forbidden. He decides who will die for possession of forbidden magic. Lyr’s own cousin was executed for wielding the wrong kind. And for years, Lyr has sworn to protect her older sisters, helping them conceal their own illicit magic. But when Lyr must participate in the ceremony that reveals her power, she uncovers something else entirely. Something that means banishment from the Empire. Faced with death in exile, and leaving her sisters behind, Lyr has no choice but to accept a deadly contract. She has seven months to train as a warrior and pass the Emperor’s brutal test of strength—all without magic. But when she’s forced to train with Lord Rhyan Hart, the man she’s secretly loved since she was a girl—a feared warrior in exile himself, forbidden to her in every way—she’s in danger of losing far more than her family, life, and country. Rebel forces, and an invading army, are destabilizing Bamaria, just as her family’s secrets threaten to reveal themselves. Surviving the training, and saving her sisters may mean sacrificing her own heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord Rhyan Hart, Heir Apparent to the Arkasva, High Lord of Glemaria, Imperator to the North hates everything about his title. Its length, its pretentiousness, and the fact that it connects him directly to his father, the sadistic violent man he hates more than anyone in Lumeria. The last thing Rhyan wants to do is spend the summer before his Revelation Ceremony traveling across the Empire with him for a state visit. Rhyan's resigned to his season of misery until he reaches Bamaria and sees Lady Lyriana Batavia. Rhyan's sure she doesn't remember their meeting a decade ago, but an act of kindness from her stayed with him through the years. Though he longs to know the woman she's become, he must keep his distance to protect her from his father's sinister political maneuvers. But when the undeniable attraction between them garners the attention of two dangerous Imperators competing for power, Rhyan must play the villain to keep him and Lyriana from becoming pawns. Jules, Lyriana's cousin and best friend, is the only one to see through his facade, becoming his unlikely ally as they navigate instability in the Bamarian Court. Though Lyriana is suspicious of his true motives, Rhyan's plan has nearly succeeded—until the night of the solstice, when hidden enemies emerge, posing an even greater threat. To save the girl he loves, Rhyan must play the hero—but to do so involves risking not only his heart, but exposing his most dangerous secret.

“Women and feminists have struggled for years to improve the situation of women and children in Morocco…4 years with Bassima Hakkaoui as minister and all acquired will be lost,” the petition read.
Rabat – Members of civil society are calling for the Minister of Solidarity, Women, Family and Social Development, Bassima Hakkaoui, to resign, following her silence on the rape and murder of women in Morocco.
The latest murder to cause shockwaves across Morocco is that of Hanane, a 34-year-old woman who was brutally raped and killed in Mellah, Rabat. Her entire ordeal was captured on film and circulated on social media.
Hanane’s murder is just one of many cases to shock the nation recently. Just this month, on July 11, an 11-year-old boy was raped and killed in Meknes.
Hanane’s case represents a developing face of violence in Morocco, were perpetrators film the incidents to circulate the footage on social media.
The same occurred in the case of Khadija, a 17-year-old in Beni Mellal who was gang-raped and forcibly tattooed, and that of Zeinab, a 23-year-old who was gang-raped on a public bus in 2017. No bystanders intervened.
Hakkaoui, who was elected into her role in 2012 and is the only female minister in Moroccan parliament, did not comment publicly comment on any of these incidents.
Following Hanane’s murder, activists took to the streets of Rabat to protest violence against women. “No to rape, terrorism, and violence,” and “no to hatred and violence” were among the signs raised in front of the Moroccan Parliament on July 19.
Hakkaoui’s silence on this case, as well as the ones that came before, has been deafening for women’s rights activists and members of the civil society. One woman, Houari Meryem, has created a petition calling for the minister’s resignation.
“During her career as a minister, she has only given silence on the issues of rapes, pedophilia, single mothers, forced marriages, deep inequalities between men and women, homeless children,” read the petition.
“Today, we are going backward”
The petition mentions that when she does break her silence on the issues of women, many consider her views archaic.
The last time Bassima publically commented on the rape of a Moroccan woman, it was the case of Amina El Filali, a 16-year-old girl from Larache, Morocco, who committed suicide by ingesting rat poison on March 10, 2012.
El Filali committed suicide because she was forced to marry Mustafa Fellaq, a man ten years older than her who had raped her twice. The marriage meant that he could escape prosecution thanks to Article 475 of the Moroccan penal code, which at the time, de-criminalized rape if the rapist later married their victim.
Commenting on the case to the press, Hakkoui said: “Article 475 of the Penal Code is unlikely to be repealed under pressure from international public opinion. the marriage of the girl to her rapist does not bring her real harm.”
The petition also alleges that Hakkoui said that a rapist marrying his victim is actually “a good solution to spare the victim the rejection of society.” It also says Hakkoui said women are safe from sexual assault as long as they wear the veil and “do not surrender to the eyes of the perverts.”
“Women and feminists have struggled for years to improve the situation of women and children in Morocco. The struggle for schooling, to be able to vote, study and integrate professional life, the struggle to have the right to choose,” the petition continues after listing Hakkaoui’s shortcomings.
“Today we are going backward. We are losing what we have acquired through this policy of silence, by the non-competence of the minister and by wanting to transmit to us and inculcate retrograde values, of which the society of today and the Moroccan woman no longer need.”
“Again, 4 years with Bassima Hakkaoui as minister and all acquired will be lost,” it concludes, echoing the statement of many other activists on social media.

Texas Rep. Randy Neugebauer admits he shouted "baby killer" during floor debate
Neugebauer insists that he was not referring directly to a fellow congressman but to an agreement made in the 11th hour.
Texas Republican Rep. Randy Neugebauer acknowledged Monday that he is the lawmaker who shouted out "baby killer" during a floor speech by Rep. Bart Stupak, an anti-abortion Democrat whose vote was crucial to passing the Democratic health care bill Sunday evening.Skip to next paragraph
Subscribe Today to the Monitor
Neugebauer, who has represented a solidly GOP district that includes the city of Lubbock since 2003, said he had apologized to Stupak for his outburst, which drew a rebuke from the chair during the often-rowdy debate.
"Those that are shouting out are out of order," said Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., who was presiding in the chair at the time.
Neugebauer insisted in a statement that he was not referring directly to Stupak but to the agreement that the Michigan Democrat helped work out with the White House. That eleventh-hour agreement, under which President Barack Obama said he would issue an executive order pledging that no federal funds be used for abortions, helped seal the last votes Democrats needed to pass the bill.
He said his exact words, referring to that agreement, were "it's a baby killer."
"While I remain heartbroken over the passage of this bill and the tragic consequences it will have for the unborn, I deeply regret that my actions were mistakenly interpreted as a direct reference to Congressman Stupak himself," he said.
But Neugebauer also acknowledged that the House chamber "is a place of decorum and respect. The timing and tone of my comment last night was inappropriate."
Neugebauer is one of the House's most conservative members, consistently speaking out about the need for lower taxes and smaller government. Last year he co-sponsored a resolution requiring that presidential candidates produce copies of their birth certificates. That followed "birther" movement allegations that Obama was born outside the United States and not qualified to be president.
In an interview Monday with Fox News, Stupak lamented the prevalence over the past year of "uncivilized behavior" when lawmakers are trying to speak on the House floor. "We can disagree on these issues as we should and we should have a meaningful debate but personal attacks have no place on it."

The professors of the UA Antonio Gil Olcina and Antonio Rico present in El Torrejó the book 'Séquia Mare. Riego Mayor de Alfaz del Pi and Benidorm (1666-2016) '
La Séquia Mare, a hydraulic infrastructure essential for the development of Benidorm
The municipal building of El Torrejó has been the stage where, today at noon, the book 'Séquia Mare. Riego Mayor de Alfaz del Pi and Benidorm (1666-2016) ', a work of Antonio Gil Olcina, former director of the University of Alicante (AU) and the professor of the same, Antonio Manuel Rico Amorós.
With the room full and a lot of public standing, the authors have detailed the development of the project started in 1666 by Beatriz Fajardo and Mendoza and how this infrastructure became over time the backbone of the region making possible its advance. In the first place facilitating the creation of cultivation areas and, finally, being a key and essential piece for the development of Benidorm as the capital of tourism of the Costa Blanca as we know it today.
In addition to the authors, the Mayor of Benidorm, Toni Pérez, the publications director of the Alicantino Institute of Culture Juan Gil Albert, Joan Borja; and the provincial deputy of the Water Cycle, Francisco M. Sáez. Among the public the provincial deputy Fernando Sepulcre, the councilman of the Water Cycle, José Ramón Gonzalez de Zárate, representatives of different groups of the corporation and councilors of the neighboring towns of Polop, La Nucia and L'Alfàs del Pi.
In his speech, Toni Pérez highlighted the "fundamental" role of Séquia Mare for the renaissance of Benidorm and emphasized the need to "value our historical and cultural heritage". The mayor recalled that the idea of recognizing the importance of this water infrastructure, currently in disuse in the municipality, comes from the hand of the Taula del Bon Profit and soon was taken over by the City.
Toni Pérez has referred to the restitution and enhancement of the only section of the ditch on public land, flanked by a mural also made by the Taula del Bon Profit that will be "portico and entrance of which is called to be one of the great parks of the city ", the Parc de la Séquia Mare in some works that, in the first of its phases already completed, has had a very important funding from the Diputación de Alicante. "A reality - Pérez has emphasized - that in a short time will be open to the public and where nature and especially water, and its importance for this great city and our territory, will share the protagonism, putting in value the own Séquia Mare and its relevant social role and economic for more than 300 years.

So do you know what it was really like at NYFW? You can read my general overview here, but what I want to talk about now is the unique perspective I experienced.

Imagine a special kind of bee hive – no worker bees, only queen bees! These alpha females descended upon NYC from their respective habitats decked out in their best, most #fashionweekworthy outfits, toting around their designer handbags. They would cram themselves into Ubers (to split the cost) and head to the remote locations of the fashion show venues. Some would cross the same street multiple times in their exaggerated Sex and the City strut hoping that the lens of a streetstyle photographer will point their way and they will achieve InstaFame. They would sometimes wait in line for over an hour to get seated just so they can hold their iPhones up to the runway and show their followers how close they were to the pinnacle of the fashion industry. The venues are hot, the February air outside is cold, the sidewalks are slick!
Another aspect of NYFW are all the networking events hosted by various brands and companies during which the bloggers get to sample and experience goods and services for free. And guess what happens when stuff is given out for free – long lines form, more waiting! And all of that waiting done in high heels!
Don’t get me wrong – I’m not throwing any shade, I did the exact same thing. And yes, it’s great to sit back and sip bottomless champagne, get your hair and nails done, bring some goodies home and do a shoot with a professional photographer. But the photos show only #halfthestory. I hope I painted a more complete picture for you. Maybe I’m at a point in my life when I just don’t get excited by freebies and celebrity sightings. My time and comfort are more valuable than swag I can afford to buy myself.
I hope I didn’t paint too much of a negative picture because after all I had a lot of fun and I will definitely do it again! I met some wonderful people, had engaging conversations, and made a lot of observations. I was with my tribe – everybody is dressed to the nines, everything is a photo op (nobody takes a drink or eats before snapping a pic for Instagram). I got plenty of inspiration – from the people and from the city. I was reminded of who I am again and what I want in life.

The weapons system for the navy's new destroyers is one step closer to working after an investigation into test failures.
The MoD and its commercial partners were left bemused when the multi-million-pound Sea Viper system failed in November during routine testing, as revealed by The News.
It is the main defence weapon for the 1bn Daring class destroyers, the first of which is due to enter full service at the end of the year.
But an investigation into the firing off the south coast of France found that it was a design flaw with the Aster missiles - rather than a problem with the launcher or control system. The missiles are now being redesigned and a new firing is planned to check if the system works properly.
An MoD spokeswoman said: 'Some production weaknesses in the most recent batches of the Aster missile have been identified and these are being corrected through minor re-design work.
'Sea Viper is undergoing a rigorous test programme to ensure that all aspects of this complex system have been thoroughly trialled and any problems resolved before it enters service.'
Four test firings of the Sea Viper System have so far taken place - but two have not met their trials objectives.
Portsmouth South MP Mike Hancock, who sits on the Commons defence committee, said: 'I am very sceptical about this - are we really to believe that a whole batch of missiles was just made wrong for such an expensive system? If you read this in a novel it would be believable, but when it's a programme that is already late it's incredible.
'I think the only way we can be certain that the problem is resolved is when these missiles are fired from a moving ship, and not from a static platform off France.'
The MoD has said the problem with Sea Viper is not due to cause a delay to the delivery of the system to HMS Daring and Dauntless.
The first test firings of the system are planned to happen on Dauntless, the second ship to arrive in her base port of Portsmouth.

“If I ever win the lottery, I’ll probably destroy the winnings
Just to avoid the fake friends asking me to fund their 15 minutes
But first – I’d get a life supply of Chinese food and Chicken McRiblets…”
I spent a half hour pondering how to describe Ecid to listeners who had never heard his music before, and what I ultimately realized is that Ecid puts me in the same headspace I inhabited in college. There are rappers I listened to 20 years ago that immediately gave me the feeling “This is TOO RAW for mainstream. It’s too dirty, it’s too smart, it’s too unorthodox, it’s too antiestablishment. This won’t make sense to anybody else. It just can’t. He/she/they are too far out there even for the incredibly open and unrestricted boundaries of hip-hop. Everybody’s going to hate this. I’ll f#%! with it though – this weird s#%! is cool.” Self-satisfied in my holier-than-thou hypocrisy, I’d swig my 40 ounce bottle and drift into a stupor as the room spun around me, convinced I had passed beyond the limits of music and reached a higher plane of existence.
The next morning I’d wake up with a pounding headache and a needle skipping off the label at the center of a record, wondering what the hell I had been listening to and why I thought getting my synapses smashed to atoms would make it make sense. I’d grab a Coke from the fridge (no coffee for me in those days) and try to piece the fragments of my brain back together to figure out if I had a class that morning and whether or not I was late for it. In the harsh light of day some of those “brilliant” albums wouldn’t stand up to scrutiny – the noise I previously thought was so next level that it was genius turned out to be all sound and fury that was signifying nothing. Some passed the acid test though. Company Flow didn’t get worse sober – it got better – and when my head stopped pounding it started nodding infectiously to the beats and the rhymes.
Ecid’s “Pheromone Heavy” is my college days personified – underground, anti-commercial, weird and quite possibly more brilliant if you’re completely out of your mind. “I’m a gangster, a hipster, and a hippie with a weakness for the whiskey” quips Ecid on “Vinyasa Flow,” which is almost a redundant song title since for yoga practicioners vinyasa IS flow – the flow of movement from one position to the next in coordination with cotrolling your breathing.
It works as a metaphor for Ecid though (who incidentally studied to be a yoga instructor) since rapping is all about controlling your breath, and there’s little doubt he can bend words with his tongue and lungs with the best of them. He doesn’t have many guests and he doesn’t need them either – they’d interrupt the singular experience of songs like the pounding “Monopolized.”
“Who isn’t bored as f#%! looking to ignore their stresses?
Sometimes I wish I had a drug problem to invest in!
At least then I’d be too high enough to forget it long enough
to get over the headache of day-to-day dependence
I’ve been a little preoccupied… been meaning to keep up with keeping up
I’ve been a little monopolized… been meaning to say I still beleive in us”
The method to Ecid’s madness lies not only in the fact he can explore his brain’s random twists and turns from the profound to the absurd, but that he produces his own beats to do it over and thus has no one to reign whatever creative impulses he feels. That is of course a dangerous proposition if your creativity schews in the direction of someone like Kool Keith, a man who is undoubtedly brillaint but capable of producing some of rap’s most unlistenable music when left to his own devices. Thankfully Ecid still remembers that storytelling matters, and that making songs is more than hitting random notes on a keyboard and then slapping a drum track on it.
“Running From Cops” is the kind of adventure that could be filmed as a sequel to “The Hangover.” Ecid meets Eminem meets philosophical musings on “Don’t Wanna Know” as he admits “I’m addicted to negative energy” and that he needs to get turnt up, but only because the world’s filled with too much sorrow and he just can’t stop watching depressing documentaries. The musical twists and turns (and reverses) of “Better Off” would be a joy as a solo instrumental track, but it’s equally dope to hear Ecid rap “The worst thing I ever did was make my mom cry/The best thing I did was wake up and apologize.” It feels like Ecid has no filters between himself and his audience, and when listening to him address an absent father who’d rather be his “bro” as his dealer than a role model on “Watch It Burn,” you can only draw one conclusion – Ecid either (A.) writes some VERY believable fiction or (B.) the whole point of making music for the man is an exercise in psychotherapy.
Perhaps it’s both. Maybe it’s neither. Whatever the method is to Ecid’s madness, I’m willing to sip from the Kool-Aid a little longer, so long as I don’t wake up tomorrow morning back in my college dorm room with vomit on my chin and regrets from an empty bottle of orange juice and a half empty bottle of gin.


Jamie Vardy has embraced the updated player ratings on the video game FIFA 16 with typical gusto.
At the unveiling of the big mid-season update for the popular game, the England and Leicester City striker was among those celebrating the biggest upward shifts in his 'Overall' ability rating.
Naturally enough the powerhouse forward, who has taken the Premier League by storm this season with 18 goals, wanted to banish the ignominy of only being rated '71' as swiftly as possible.
So he put his head through his old over-sized profile card.
Marked up to a whopping '75', Vardy can now look forward to being regarded in an entirely different class of player by the game's millions of users worldwide.
With footballers themselves often among the keenest players of the FIFA video game, Vardy's outburst was a wonderfully choreographed subversive gesture in keeping with the atypical approach of his Leicester side, who against all odds still lead the Premier League by five points.
Or maybe he was just really hungry. And the photoshoot was taking too long.
Meanwhile, rumours that opposition fans will now chant "71" at matches in an attempt to goad Vardy into another headbutt, and a subsequent red card, are completely unfounded.
Quite frankly it's a surprise the camera was able to capture any footage of Vardy's moment of exuberance, given that FIFA 16 now rates his 'Pace' at 92.
Some might be surprised at such a high speed rating, but in a league containing the likes of Manchester City's Martin Demichelis and Stoke's Philipp Wollscheid the relative estimates for everyone else's pace are naturally distorted in this way.

Aviation fuel from aquaculture
Construction has started on an integrated seawater, energy and agriculture facility at Masdar City, Abu Dhabi.
Officials have said that the demonstration project will use desert land irrigated by seawater to sustainably produce biofuel, bio-chemicals and food. The Masdar Institute of Science and Technology’s Sustainable Bioenergy Research Consortium (SBRC) facility is expected to be completed before the end of 2015.
The 20,000 square-meter bioenergy pilot facility will include saltwater aquaculture ponds where fish and shrimp will be grown. Water from the ponds, including nutrient-rich waste produced by these fish, will be used to irrigate and fertilize salt-tolerant halophyte plants that will then be harvested and turned into aviation biofuel and other products. Flowing from the halophyte fields, the seawater will also nourish a wetland planted with mangroves – a plant that serves as a natural carbon sink to absorb carbon dioxide from the air.
The pilot project is intended to run for three to five years, allowing researchers to learn more about the optimal operations and conditions to support the scalable production of bioenergy.
Dr. Moavenzadeh, President, Masdar Institute, said, “The UAE and the world need renewable and sustainable fuels. That is why Masdar Institute is proud to be leading the SBRC and launching the Integrated Seawater Energy and Agriculture System, which is more than an aviation biofuel production facility; it represents a holistic approach to sustainably produce food and bioenergy in a way that does not compete with fresh water and arable land. We are pleased to begin construction of the world’s first integrated seawater bioenergy pilot plant – a truly innovative project to mark the UAE’s Year of Innovation.”
The aviation sector currently accounts for approximately 2% of total atmospheric carbon emissions. Providing a renewable and low-carbon alternative to traditional aviation fuel through the production of sustainable and scalable biomass can help the UAE reduce its contribution to global climate change and help shrink its ecological footprint.
The Masdar Institute is a non-profit consortium supported by founding members Etihad Airways, Boeing, and Honeywell UOP, as well as more recent members Takreer, Safran and General Electric.

The Power of the Semicolon to Help You Pause and Connect to Your Tribe
It is no wonder to me why the gorgeous, subtle, sultry image of the semicolon has been tattoed on many people in the last few years.
It is the ubiquitous sign of self determination for those who are not only surviving, but thriving, after struggling with depression, deep despair, suicide, and other mental health issues.
Used prolifically in literary, poetic, academic and technical writing, the semicolon directs us to ‘take a brief pause’.
This dot and hook shaped article of punctuation is an elegant symbol for self love, self affirmation, self commitment to keep on.
It makes so much sense to me that people tattoo this elegant and simple form on their fingers, wrists, arms, or behind the ear. Sometimes they pair the semicolon with a heart or a musical note or a butterfly to signify their chosen flavor of self affirmation.
And what could be better than a sign you see all day long that reminds you that you are here, alive, and keeping on, amidst the pain, the suffering, the grief, the heartache, the beauty and terror of life?
As an end of life doula, I often talk about ‘holding the space’ for the person who is nearing the end of their life, and their loved ones. I seek to make the energy comfortable and sacred and buoyant.
The little pause embodies the same: a moment where we direct that sacred, rich fuel inward.
The mark connects us to the many, many others with parallel struggles, similar pains, and the same hope that they will find peace, love, joy and freedom in their lives.
The tattoo heals us as the connection blossoms quietly and stealthily, without noise or ego. It says, “Pause for a moment. Celebrate us. We are alive. We are making it one day at a time. Join us.”
In solidarity, I plan on getting this precious symbol etched into my skin. I too have moved from survivor of pain, suffering, inner turmoil and self hatred, to a place of ease and gratitude.

Roy Williams and the No. 1 North Carolina Tar Heels can look forward to a second-round match with No. 9 Providence tomorrow, but the Hall of Fame coach isn’t too happy about it. No, Williams isn’t bummed about playing Providence, but multiple sources reported on Twitter that Williams “despises” the fact that UNC’s tip-off with the Friars isn’t until 9:45 p.m.
Roy going in on the 945 tiptime. 'I despise it.'
— Mark Armstrong (@ArmstrongABC11) March 18, 2016
RoyW on the 9:40pm tip time: "I despise it. I'll sit in the hotel and not get to go to work until 9:30 at night."
— Brooke Pryor (@bepryor) March 18, 2016
Roy Williams is roasting the NCAA over UNC's 9:45 start time on Saturday. I have to agree. East Coast game shouldn't start that late.
— Jeff Archer (@jeffarcherSport) March 18, 2016
Granted, the game time isn’t exactly ideal, and Williams has his reasons for being unhappy. For most of the day, he and his players will be sitting ducks and just playing the waiting game until it’s their turn to step on the court of Raleigh’s PNC Arena.
And there we have why Williams shouldn’t be overly salty about the tip-off time. The game is in Raleigh, just a stone’s throw away from the Tar Heels’ home base in Chapel Hill. For all intents and purposes, this is going to be a home game.
Moreover, nobody wants to see that game early in the day anyway.

How Much Benadryl Should You Give Your Dog. The standard dosage for oral Benadryl for dogs is 1 mg per pound of body weight, given two to three times a day, or as needed.
Can I give my puppy Benadryl?
Can I Give My Dog Benadryl? Yes, you can give your dog Benadryl. Veterinarians approve using Benadryl for dogs for a number of reasons. Antihistamines like Benadryl can help ease motion sickness, inflammatory and allergic reactions from insect bites and seasonal allergies.
How much Benadryl can I give my 10 pound puppy?
Benadryl dosage for dogsVery Small Dogs (4-10 pounds):1/4 tabletSmall Dogs (10-20 pounds):1/2 tabletMedium Dogs (20-30 pounds):1 tabletLarger dogs:1 tablet per 25 pounds body weight
How long does Benadryl last in puppies?
Benadryl may start to lose effectiveness when used for a prolonged time. Keep that in mind if you give your dog Benadryl frequently. It usually takes 24 hours for Benadryl to wear off and stop working. However, for dogs with liver or kidney disease, the effects can last longer.
Can you kill your dog with Benadryl?
Even though antihistamines such as diphenhydramine (Benedryl) can be used in pets at the correct dosage, an overdose can kill pets. As it turns out, many antihistamine overdoses, including diphenhydramine, can be severe and difficult to treat.
Why is my dog so itchy but has no fleas?
If your dog is still itching, but he doesn’t have fleas or a food allergy, he may have some environmental allergies to things like pollen or dander. A nutrition change may not do much in the way of relief, but your veterinarian may recommend a therapeutic food to improve your dog’s skin health.
Do puppies outgrow car sickness?
Motion sickness in dogs is a common problem. Motion or car sickness is more common in younger dogs than adults.

Participants are encourage to bring whatever technology they use for music making; whether a laptop with a programming language on, a piece of hardware, or a traditional musical instrument. Ideas will take precedence over tools.
The format of the workshop will be:
7:00 - 7:45pm –– Dom Aversano showcased bell ringing algorithms
7:45 - 8:40pm –– Participants hacking session
8:40 - 9pm –– Participants feedback their ideas


text: This was BY FAR the most comfortable cosplay I’ve ever put together. Imagine being in fluffy slippers all day, hanging out at the convention center…. yeah. It was amazing. The story behind this one is that there’s an episode of Adventure Time (one of my favorites) where Princess Bubblegum admits she wears an old band t-shirt Marceline gave her as pajamas. You can’t actually see it in the picture below, but I have a replica of that t-shirt. Then the other girls put together what they surmised LSP and Marceline would wear, to match.

JEFFERSON COUNTY, Mo. – After an eight-year-old elementary student spoke in favor of masks Wednesday night, Windsor C-1 School District did not vote on a mask mandate.
The board will keep in place its mask-optional policy.
Second-grade student, Everylee Cox, who said she has been bullied for wearing a mask shared her story at Wednesday night’s school board meeting.
During public comments, families list their reasons why they want or don’t want a mask mandate. Currently, most school districts around Windsor C-1 have mask mandates in place.
“I don’t necessarily have a problem with masks but I don’t like that we’re still being told to do this and I don’t like the thought of kids wearing them the entire day,” a public speaker said.
This comes as staggering numbers come out of the Jefferson County Health Department. A total of 251 children 19 years and younger have now tested positive for COIVD. The highest ever.
According to the Windsor C-1 School District, 48 students currently tested positive for COVID-19.
“I’ve been teased about wearing my mask from those that are not wearing theirs, given how those situations have been handled I’m still thinking about, I feel anxious but I still wear my mask,” Cox said.
When it was Everylee’s turn to speak, two of her friends tagged along to speak in favor of a mandate.
Both second graders spoke about how wearing their masks help them keep their classmates be safe and they want everyone to follow.

The Kyoto Protocol introduced the notion of a global emissions trading scheme (ETS) to aid in meeting global emissions reduction targets. Since then, the share of emissions covered by carbon pricing has tripled and now encompasses approximately 12% of global emissions. This paper discusses the challenges in design and implementation of past and current ETSs to provide recommendations for ETS development and linkage. It summarizes seven major factors that should be considered for successful ETS implementation: cap setting, permit allocation, trading guidelines that avoid carbon leakage, regulation of offsets, high compliance, transparent and continuous monitoring, and careful collaboration between systems. Successes and failures in practical implementation of each factor are explored through various ETS case studies. If applied carefully, these factors could ensure high and consistent carbon prices, and coupled with strict regulations, could achieve an ETS that meets intended environmental benefits, while offering potential for bottom-up international linkage.

Katie Booth discussing her book "The Invention of Miracles:
Language, Power, and Alexander Graham Bell’s Quest to End Deafness"
Please join us Thursday, September 23, at 5 p.m. Eastern for the 2021 History Book Festival’s live, online event with Katie Booth discussing her book The Invention of Miracles: Language, Power, and Alexander Graham Bell’s Quest to End Deafness (Simon & Schuster, 2021). Booth will be in conversation with Feta Fernsler.
This presentation is co-sponsored by the Delaware Association of the Deaf, Deaf Outreach, Inc., and Epworth United Methodist Church.
With the support of our presenting sponsors—Delaware Humanities and The Lee Ann Wilkinson Group, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices I Gallo Realty—we are delighted to offer our 2021 events free of charge. However, registration is required.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Many think of Alexander Graham Bell as the inventor of the telephone, but as the son of a deaf woman (and, later, husband to another), his goal in life from adolescence was to teach deaf students to speak. He became a leading advocate for the oralist movement, which valued teaching deaf students how to speak English verbally and shunned the use of American Sign Language — in spite of growing evidence that this led to the detriment of all other learning, causing not only stalled development, but also social isolation. The author describes the harm that many people, including her grandparents, experienced as a result of Bell’s movement to stamp out ASL and explains how the deaf community reclaimed their once-forbidden language.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Katie Booth, who was raised in a mixed hearing/deaf family, teaches writing at the University of Pittsburgh. She spent more than 15 years researching this book, poring over Bell’s papers, Library of Congress archives, and the records of deaf schools around America.
Feta Fernsler, president of the Delaware Association of the Deaf, will be in conversation with Katie Booth during the event. He works as a job coach for the Delaware Division of Vocational Rehabilitation and the Delaware Division of Developmental Disabilities Services; serves as a mentor for families with newborns identified as deaf or hard of hearing; and manages the Delaware Relay telecommunications system.
Copies of The Invention of Miracles: Language, Power, and Alexander Graham Bell’s Quest to End Deafness are available from Browseabout Books in Rehoboth Beach, official bookseller of the History Book Festival, and biblion in Lewes. Each copy comes with a signed archival bookplate.

Will Smith 'staunchly denies gifting Tyrese $5million toward his custody battle... despite the embattled star's shock claims over the donation'
Will Smith has reportedly hit out at claims that he donated $5million (£3.8million) towards Tyrese's custody battle with his wife.
Sources close to the Hitch star tell TMZ that he and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith did not give him any money despite the singer and actor's claims on Sunday that the duo dished out to contribute to his legal plight.
The 38-year-old rapper and actor has been engaged in a bitter courtroom feud with ex-wife Norma Mitchell Gibson over their 10-year-old daughter Shayla.

Hitting back: Will Smith has reportedly hit out at Tyrese's claims that he donated $5million (£3.8million) towards his custody battle with his estranged wife
Insiders claim Will and Jada have hit back at Tyrese's claims as they insist they did not give him any money, despite his outburst.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Will and Tyrese for comment.
In his initial comment, The Fast And The Furious star said: ' When we show UP for each-other there’s nothing that can’t be done I repeat nothing.
'My wife kept the news away from me cause I’ve been on with lawyers all day but our family and our sister Jada-Pinkett Smith and my brother Will Smith just sent us 5 million dollars to help keep us afloat.'
Golden handshake: Sources close to the Hitch star tell TMZ that he and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith did not give him any money despite the singer and actor's claims on Sunday that the duo dished out to contribute
Right behind him: Tyrese loves to share snaps of his close encounters with Big Willie
Putting his money where his mouth is: The Fast And The Furious star was delighted at his friends generosity
'You’ve guys asked me to get off and stay off the Internet now that my daughters legal fees will be paid I will listen. The Smiths’s and their whole family has always shown up for The Gibson’s Uncle Will you’re an uncle for real.'
Tyrese, who has supposedly been made 'virtually unemployable' following his ex's claims, prevously complained on social media about the legal fees he's racked up in the custody battle, saying, 'I'm at $13,000 a month, what more do you want from me?'
And he also voiced his disappointment over the alleged lack of support from some of his well-heeled 'millionaire' and billionaire' friends asking, 'I've been there for you, why aren't you there for me?'
His posting comes after he thanked wife Samantha Lee Gibson for her support during his court battle with ex-wife Norma.
Bitter dispute: Tyrese and ex-wife Norma, together here in 2008, remain entrenched in a costly custody battle over their daughter
Tyrese's ex-wife Norma Gibson previously accused him of child abuse, saying he spanked their only child on multiple occasions. He denied the claims, which sparked an investigation by the L.A. County of Department of Children and Family Services.
He posted a loving message to Samantha on Instagram Saturday after the investigation into the alleged beating was close, and he discovered he would not be facing criminal charges.
'When your 1st charge get dropped your wife’s mind will finally REST!!!!!' the star of the Fast And Furious franchise wrote, captioning a photo of Samantha Lee asleep in bed.
Tyrese is claiming his ex is being vindictive against him due to the fact he has remarried. He says he has been unable to see his daughter Shayla for two months, and wants to have the matter dealt with as soon as possible.
No abuse: The LA County Department Of Children And Family Services recently closed its probe into allegations that he beat daughter Shayla
Very close: Tyrese previously shared a snap of himself enjoying a candlelit meal with Will, who brought along wife Jada
