Wall Street Journal reports that Brock Pierce, child actor turned Bitcoin evangelist, has co-founded a startup called Realcoin. Its currency units, called realcoins, are sought as a means to make the most of Bitcoin-based technology while avoiding its volatility.
Realcoins are said to be dollar-backed. Their value is pegged to one dollar by the company maintaining a real-time record of its dollar-based reserves, which will be stored in conservative investments. The record will be subject to the authentication of the blockchain ledger.
Pierce also wants to launch other similar coins backed by euros and yen.
The coin should not be confused with another "Realcoin", which was apparently launched a year ago but not active today. It appeared to be just another altcoin with no such differentiating features, unrelated to Pierce's initiative.
So is this p2p fiat?
Not quite. If it would be, it arguably gets the best of both worlds and would rapidly gain widespread acceptance. It would eliminate the middlemen like banks and credit card companies and their associated fees. At the same time, it would maintain a relatively stable value based off a centralized backing, which are indispensable ingredients for currency.
Realcoins, however, are essentially a form of bitcoins whose issuer decides to peg their value at one dollar. It was unclear from the WSJ article if Realcoin will obligate themselves in the redemption of realcoins for dollars in the same way a government backs its local currency. If yes, realcoins are just coupons for dollars entrusted to a centralized third party. And if not, their said dollar-backed value carries no weight. Carrying an unknown value, the exchange rate for such coins will be volatile.
An example of a true p2p fiat currency would have been MintChip. Real dollars are always held and transferred by individuals in electronic form without requiring the intervention of a bank. The project was launched by the Royal Canadian Mint in conjunction with multiple technology partners. It has since been slated for divestiture into the private sector and its future remains uncertain.


i gave him a cooldown ban for his never ending flaming and swearing a week ago. today i had to ban him again, still using the word kanker and going racist against me. this time he cant escape the strike..
I got additional proof but I will add that when i'm at home. This guy is provocative and he already knows he is balancing on a little thin wire. Kami was there when he started to talk about his prior ban which he got when he started to talk crap about my mum.
This guy came back from a permban saying he is deeply sorry for saying thing like he has kept saying now after his unban. There is one thing saying "f*ck you" to people but the way he is harassing is way over the line. Not welcome back to our servers again.
Thank you for reporting and adding additional proof.

New exhibit examines ballet's lasting influence on fashion
by: JOCELYN NOVECK, Associated Press
Posted: Feb 13, 2020 / 10:01 PM GMT-0500 / Updated: Feb 14, 2020 / 04:31 AM GMT-0500
This photo provided by The Museum at FIT shows the "Dying Swan" tutu, head piece, and pointe shoes worn by iconic Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, that are part of the new exhibit at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. The exhibit features 90 items, including ballet costumes, high fashion and athletic wear, or what we call today "athleisure." (Eileen Costa/The Museum at FIT via AP)
NEW YORK (AP) — A crowning jewel of the new exhibit at the Fashion Institute of Technology is a feathered white tutu. It may look, to the untrained eye, like any ballet costume. It is, however, anything but.
Worn by the iconic Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova in her most famous role, the Dying Swan, the tutu contains 1,537 feathers. Curators at the Museum at FIT know this because the feathers had to be counted to get the tutu through the permit process to arrive in the United States, from Britain. At FIT, the tutu resides in its own alarmed case with 37 screws keeping it safe and secure.
The launch this week of "Ballerina: Fashion's Modern Muse" was timed to coincide with New York Fashion Week, taking advantage of all the editors in town. But the connection is more than logistical: The exhibit argues that ballet has had a major influence on fashion both high-end and casual, starting in the early 20th century and up to the present time.
The exhibit features 90 items, including ballet costumes, couture gowns and athletic wear, or what we today call "athleisure." Ballgowns or party dresses from top labels like Dior, Chanel and Lanvin are displayed along with the ballet costumes that inspired them.
To Patricia Mears, curator of the exhibit and deputy director of the Museum at FIT, ballet's influence is "everywhere."
"So (if) you're looking at a formal gown made out of silk tulle that is covered with spangles and has a satin bodice, immediately you think of a ballerina's tutu," Mears says. "If you look at the flat ballet slipper, millions of women wear that kind of shoe today. And then the leotard, the leggings … all these things have found their way into fashion. It's ubiquitous."
While ballet's popularity dipped somewhat at the end of the 20th century, Mears feels it's gained considerable ground over the past decade, partly due to the popularity of "Black Swan," the 2010 film that won Natalie Portman an Oscar, and partly due to the use of social media by dancers to connect with audiences. Some dancers have become familiar cultural figures (none more than Misty Copeland, for example, who has crossed over into mainstream stardom.)
And fashion has played a role in the phenomenon, argues Mears: "The collaboration between high-end designers and ballet companies has been a really important force in making this change as well."
The most obvious example: New York City Ballet, which has contributed nine costumes to the exhibit, including the late costume designer Karinska's famous tutus from "Jewels" by George Balanchine, and a 2012 costume for "Symphony in C" by current NYCB costume director Marc Happel. The company's annual fall fashion gala brings in noted designers to create costumes for new ballets every year.
Also on loan from NYCB: the lovely long pink tutu worn by the Sugarplum Fairy in "The Nutcracker" — a character that is "every little girl's dream," says Happel. "She has two costumes — she's one of the only characters that does. This one is made of a very beautiful satin bodice and several layers of tulle, which are different colors. That can be very subtle, but it creates more depth in the classical tutu."
Echoes of that tutu, in fact, can be seen in a very modern item Happel has contributed to the exhibit: the wedding dress he designed for Sara Mearns, NYCB's star ballerina and a good friend, for her 2018 marriage, a stunning pink dress with spaghetti straps and a jewel-encrusted bodice.
In one section, the exhibit departs from the European high fashion elements — the Lanvin, the Chanel, the Dior fashions inspired by ballet — to look a particularly American phenomenon of the 20th century: activewear.
"I think one of the most surprising parts of the exhibit are the activewear elements," says Mears, "the leotards, the leggings. Today, 'athleisure' is everywhere. But actually the phenomenon started in the 1940s. and we have a whole group of American women designers like Claire McCardell to thank for that. They were actually looking at dancers as a source of inspiration."
The exhibit runs through April 18.

Acer TravelMate P6 with discrete GPU is $600 off before Prime Day
Acer TravelMate P6 is just $899 right now
Before Amazon Prime Day, Microsoft is cutting prices on many of its products, including the Acer TravelMate P6, which is $600 off and comes with discrete graphics.
You can get the Acer TravelMate P6 w/ an Nvidia MX250 GPU on sale for $899 at the Microsoft Store. Originally, this laptop cost $1,499, so it's a deep price cut for this kind of laptop.
This model comes with a 14-inch, 1080p panel, an Intel Core i7-8565U CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and an Nvidia GeForce MX250 GPU.

Acer TravelMate P6: was $1,499 now $899 @ Microsoft
With the Acer TravelMate P6, Acer has crafted a stylish notebook with a bright display, fast performance and a good selection of ports. This model comes with a 14-inch, 1080p panel, an Intel Core i7-8565U CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and an Nvidia GeForce MX250 GPU.View Deal
The TravelMate P6 has a stylish, lightweight magnesium-alloy chassis, and at 2.7 pounds and 0.7 inches thick, the P6 is a very sleek machine. The TravelMate P6 is MIL-STD-810G certified, so it should withstand extreme conditions (high temps, rain, drops) regardless of how fragile it might feel.
You'll also enjoy watching videos on the TravelMate P6's relatively vivid and bright 14-inch, 1080p non-touch display. Additionally, the top-firing speaker on the TravelMate P6's deck isn't the loudest, but it produces clear and undistorted sound.
The discrete GPU also paid off in our real-world testing when the Travelmate P6 played Dirt 3 at a smooth 96 frames per second, proving that it's more capable of running modern games than the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (31 fps), the Vaio SX14 (33 fps), the HP EliteBook x360 840 (62 fps) and the average premium laptop at the time (62 fps).

NZIFF 2014 Rockumentaries part 1; Nick Cave's 20,000 Days On Earth | Shut Up Hamish!
I saw three varied rock documentaries at the NZ International Film Festival in Auckland, the first of which, Nick Cave's 20,000 Days On Earth (directed by Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard), the most cinematic and staged of all three. There was a bit of hype surrounding this one, to which I was largely ignorant of considering I'm not the biggest Nick Cave fan. I like his music, but have never really delved further than his most popular albums (Murder Ballads, last year's Push The Sky Away). I've gained more of an appreciation for him recently due to his live shows, having seen a few streamed from festivals the last couple of years. His most recent Glastonbury performance was brilliant and enough to convert a non-fan, check it out.
20,000 Days On Earth looks at a fictional 24 hours in the life of Nick Cave, on his twenty thousandth day on earth. An extremely well filmed day and productive day, we see him rehearse and song write with his band and have some hilarious nostalgic conversations with Bad Seeds member Warren Ellis. The band scenes eventually culminate in a riveting performance at the Sydney Opera house, the cinematography focusing just as much on the reaction of the audience members as the charisma of Cave on stage.
This being his film, Cave dominates every scene and lets us into his life in a very deliberate kind of way. He takes us on a trip to his therapist, and with a lot of mood lighting as the camera shifts about (possibly on a dolly), Cave gives insight into his childhood, what he remembers of his father and his stints with religion and addiction (addiction jokingly said to be preferable to religion). Cave also takes meandering drives around Brighton which he now calls home, and is joined by people from his past who float in and out, bringing up key moments from Cave's life and asking questions. Kylie Minogue's cameo is a particularly notable one as is one of his ex-Bad Seeds members Blixa Bargeld, who discusses his reason for leaving the band.
The overall mood of the film is of inspiration, spending much time looking at the creative process behind Cave writing his songs and the influence of the past on his work. I left feeling quite inspired. Although it's all about Cave, through several monologues he connects to larger themes of the benefits of living a life for art. Cave seems to want to inspire us to be productive, to be more adventurous with our ideas. I feel any creative type will benefit from a trip into an artist's world such as this.
playing was better, and I had an outlet for songwriting and producing, which hhad nothing to do with her, so it was a healthy balance between the two.

It is the most commonly made mistake you definitely want to avoid.

When It Snows It Pours: Books to Read, Shows to Watch for Conspiracy Theorists3 min read
March 18, 2014 September 24, 2013 by Austin Milbarge
When Edward Snowden boldly revealed that he had leaked National Security documents, it was his stated purpose in doing so that stood out more than what he had disclosed. In an interview with The Guardian, Snowden told of his life living in Hawaii, working as a contractor for a security company and making "a ton" of money, but deciding to sacrifice it all because of what he'd found out about the government's plan, already underway, to destroy privacy and freedom. Wow, anyone having a flashback to high school literature class?
Apparently government's insatiable desire to control citizens through technology and by limiting information is nothing new. Even those hold-out optimists who desperately want to believe that the government has their best interests in mind have to see that the literature of the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s was to the point, and the reality of that era isn't merely in danger — it no longer exists.
'1984'
George Orwell may have been off by a few decades, but he certainly got a lot of it right. Published in 1949, Orwell's vision of the future had the world in a perpetual state of war, with citizens being constantly watched by the government. Even those who, haven't read "1984" have surely heard the term "Big Brother." After reading this Orwell classic, you'll know what it means and won't be able to stop yourself from making the connection to life in 2013. The Big Brother of "1984" doesn't just monitor the good people of Oceanian, it practices public mind control and persecutes those bold enough to have an original thought or opinion, calling such heinous acts "thoughtcrimes." Big Brother even goes so far as to rewrite history, employing people to revise already published news stories so that they support the government's version of reality.
'Brave New World'
"Brave New World" was published in 1932 and crossed over with "1984" in some of its themes. Author Aldous Huxley was just as concerned as George Orwell about government's control issues, which is evident in the reproductive control through technology, psychological manipulation and subliminal learning during sleep that Huxley painted into his "Brave New World" book. Originally intended to be a parody of utopian novels of the time by the author, such as "Men Like Gods" and "A Modern Utopia," the view of "Brave New World" from the 21st century is a sadly ironic one.
'Fahrenheit 451'
The theme of government-controlling citizens through mass media and technology is the thread that Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451" picked up and carried on. Published in 1953, Bradbury painted a stark picture of a society suppressed and controlled through censorship and programming. Anyone reading "Fahrenheit 451" should be startled by the presence of items like earbuds as listening devices, ATM's and flatscreen TV's thin enough to hang on the wall. None of that technology existed in 1953, yet Bradbury included all of it. Futuristic as it was, it facilitated, rather than prevented, the manipulation and censorship carried out by the ruling powers.
These are all must-read books for the conspiracy theorist, especially when you feel yourself slipping out of paranoia. Whenever you start crossing over into a positive state of mind, a few chapters from anyone will be enough to sober you up. You should also keep abreast of current conspiracies, via shows like "Conspiracy Theory" and other cutting-edge reality shows. You'll find them on networks like TruTV, available with most cable or satellite packages, according to www.bundle.tv.
There's a Catch-22 topic involved here, so to speak: if the paranoid are proven right, that means the world as we know it is screwed.

Television Royalty in the Desert
The Mary Tyler Moore Show, which celebrates its 50th anniversary next year, provided us with some of the most memorable TV characters of all time, from Lou Grant to Rhoda Morgenstern. We speak with a pair of them: Coachella Valley residents Gavin MacLeod and Joyce Bulifant, who played the unforgettable Murray and Marie Slaughter.
Kay Kudukis July 18, 2019 Arts & Entertainment, Current Digital
Coachella Valley residents Joyce Bulifant and Gavin MacLeod first met on the 1960s TV show, McHale's Navy.
PHOTOGRAPH & VIDEO BY STEVEN SALISBURY
It was the 1970s, and witches and genies were on their way out, replaced by more realistic characters. A pioneer in the field of comedy, The Mary Tyler Moore Show broke rules, glass ceilings, and occasionally hearts with brilliantly written, comedic storylines with an edge, as well as provided opportunities for women in the male-dominated television world. Gavin MacLeod and Joyce Bulifant portrayed brown baggers Murray and Marie Slaughter, the everyman/woman of the working world.
Bulifant invited Palm Springs Life and her onscreen husband into her home where we snacked on tea and cookies, dished on their personal lives, and how they intersected with The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
Did you know The Mary Tyler Moore Show was going to be a success from the beginning?
MacLeod: No. We almost didn't make it to air. We had to shoot the pilot twice. We did it on a Friday night, and the network wasn't going to take it. The network was very concerned about Rhoda because they thought she was unlikeable. The script supervisor suggested that if Phyllis' daughter Bess liked Rhoda, it would soften her up a bit. The writers added a line for Bess, "Aunt Rhoda's really a lot of fun. Mom hates her.' We shot the pilot again on a Tuesday, and the network accepted it.
Women in positions of power were scarce back then, but The Mary Tyler Moore Show was at the forefront of giving opportunities to women.
MacLeod: We had an avalanche of talented women: writers, directors, producers. Grant Tinker (producer and Mary Tyler Moore's husband) really opened the door for a lot of women. They were so inventive, these writers, all of them felt free to speak up. You'd say something, then they'd get an idea, and suddenly it was in the script.
Bulifant: They wrote and wrote and wrote until it was just a gem. They didn't ever settle.
VIDEO: Gavin MacLeod reveals the episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show that produced the most mail to him.
How did you two meet?
Bulifant: I don't remember, do you?
MacLeod: You read for McHale's Navy (MacLeod's first hit sitcom).
Bulifant: Oh, that's right! I played Tim Conway's girlfriend. He was a funny guy. He made me laugh all the time. I loved him doing the dentist on The Carol Burnett Show.
MacLeod: Funny story about Tim and Ernest Borgnine (who played McHale). Ernie was engaged to Ethel Merman. There was an engagement party, and we were all invited. I couldn't imagine the two of them together, but I was so excited to meet Ethel Merman. So Tim and I, and our wives, we show up together, and we're seated at the same table for dinner. After a bit, someone yells out "Ethel, sing!" By this time, Ernie's head was on the table, and Ethel grabs him by the shoulders from behind and sings, "They say that falling in love is wonderful." We all listen, and when Ethel finishes singing, there's applause, and after it dies down, Conway yells, "Again!" And she did.
(Borgnine and Merman were only married for 32 days before they split. Borgnine cited the reason in a 2011 interview with The Hollywood Reporter as, "I got more attention on our honeymoon than she did." Merman allowed him the last word, but she took the last jab. Merman released an autobiography in 1978, and the chapter titled "Ernest Borgnine" was just one blank page.)
How much fun did you have filming the episode "Chuckles Bites the Dust," in which a rogue elephant kills the station's children's programming host off-screen? In 2009, TV Guide ranked it No. 3 in "TV's Top 100 Episodes of All Time."
MacLeod: The interesting thing was Jay Sandrich, our resident director, didn't want to direct it. He said 'death isn't funny'. So they got Joan Darling, an actress, to direct it. It was the first thing she directed, and she got an Emmy.
A Son For Murray
Before it was common to adopt children from other countries, in the 1974 episode "A Son For Murray," Murray wanted to have another child, but Marie didn't want to go through morning sickness and all that comes with childbirth again. In the end, they adopted an adolescent boy from Vietnam.
Bulifant has a backstory to that episode straight out of her own life. As a child, she spent a great deal of time living in orphanages and foster homes, and as an adult, Bulifant has advocated for unwanted and disabled children. She is executive vice president of The Dyslexia Foundation and founder of the Hans Christian Anderson Award, which recognizes dyslexics who make a positive contribution to society.

Bulifant doesn't stop there. In 2002, she married the love of her life, Roger Perry, who had been sober for six years. Her previous husbands were not. In 2018, she released the book, My Four Hollywood Husbands, about her struggles of being co-dependent in an alcoholic relationship. She had hopes her story would reach someone suffering from another's addiction. Not only did it impress readers with its raw authenticity, but some of her celebrity friends called and thanked her for writing it. She had never known they had also struggled with alcoholic relationships.
Perry passed away from prostate cancer in 2018. "He had been sober for 22 years, and I got to say all of these wonderful things about him," she says looking back on the book tour. "It was the last trip we got to take together, and I got to tell all these people how much I loved him."

The London commercial property market is booming, and has been for quite some time. With more and more money being invested in the market each year- over £60bn in 2015 alone- that boom is set to keep on going. The realm of commercial property purchasing is a tough one to break into, as it is a huge investment of time and money, but with the right London property consultant, you can get started.
Building values and rent rates are on a steady rise, making the investment in commercial property look even more promising. It is important to note, however, that real estate is a cyclical market, so there will always be a rise and fall. Having said this, it is safe to say we are well within the turn of positive cycle. This is especially due to the rise in international investors, where 50% of commercial property investments came from in 2015. Additionally, rental rates for office spaces have grown 9% in 2015, making the potential for income that much more appealing.
The commercial property market is more than just office space. It encompasses retail and industrial space as well. So for example, empty office blocks, sections of shopping malls, even hotels and restaurant franchises all fit under the umbrella of commercial real estate. Since direct investment is astronomically more expensive than entering the market via real estate trust or property funds. This type of investment allows you to see returns from multiple factors, including capital growth and rent income.
Breaking into the commercial property market requires the right premises, the right connections, and knowledge of the market. At Irvine & Cole, we're the London property search agents with all the proper tools and experience to ensure high returns on great investments.

The fascination of wood is the constant theme that runs through the history of Pfleiderer. Accompany us on a journey through time that began more than one hundred years ago with a small timber-rafting business.
Gustav Adolf Pfleiderer founds the company in 1894.
The first fifty years for the G.A. Pfleiderer (GAP) log-trading business are successful but difficult times. Two world wars, inflation and the early death of the company founder and head of the family Gustav Adolf Pfleiderer make their mark on the family and the company. Gustav Adolf Pfleiderer founds GAP in Heilbronn am Neckar, with its own timber-rafting operations on the Neckar and the Rhine in 1894, but dies just two years later at the age of 51.
Just two years after the company is founded, Adolf Pfleiderer takes over the management.
His 18-year-old son Adolf now has to take over the management, and demonstrates good entrepreneurial talent: Together with his younger brother, Paul-Otto, he manages GAP for fifty years with great skill through inflation and two world wars. In 1949, the brothers hand over the management of the company to Herbert Pfleiderer, the son of Paul-Otto and father of Ernst-Herbert Pfleiderer.
Paul-Otto Pfleiderer, here with his wife, Gladys, manages the company with his brother, Adolf.
The business with timber imports is increasingly difficult during the First World War. And timber rafting is hardly profitable during the war either. Therefore, Adolf and Paul-Otto Pfleiderer decide to go new ways and invest in the industrial production of processed wood. They buy sawmills in Heilbronn and Wernberg (in the region of Oberpfalz).
GAP acquires this unique parade ground in Neumarkt and turns it into the new company premises.
GAP wants to expand in Neumarkt in the Oberpfalz region: It acquires a sawmill, gains a permit for its own railway sidings from the railway company, and then at first produces and impregnates railway sleepers. Later it also produces wooden poles for the post office and electricity suppliers.
GAP relocates its company headquarters to Neumarkt. This picture shows the timber yard.
On December 4, 1944, the allied forces attack Heilbronn; the bombs destroy the Pfleiderer family's possessions. The central warehouse is completely burnt down and Paul-Otto Pfleiderer's private house is badly damaged. The Pfleiderer family then moves its home and company headquarters to Neumarkt.
After the war, Pfleiderer starts production in Neumarkt. The company assists with the reconstruction of the town by supplying building timber.
Sleepers, wooden poles and construction timber: These three Pfleiderer classics form the foundation for the resumption of production in the nearly completely destroyed Neumarkt after the end of the Second World War.
As of 1954, Pfleiderer employees in Neumarkt produce the first sleepers made of concrete.
Also for poles, wood is declining in favor of concrete. This picture shows the 200,000th concrete pole that was produced in Neumarkt.
After years of raw materials being in short supply, demand for wooden products falls for the first time in the nineteen-fifties. German Railways, Pfleiderer's most important customer, increasingly replaces wooden sleepers with concrete ones, and more and more customers for poles also prefer concrete to wood. GAP acts and enters new fields of business: In 1954, the company begins to produce concrete railway sleepers, Production of concrete poles starts in 1956 and Pfleiderer begins with the production of particleboard in 1962.
Herbert Pfleiderer takes over the management of the company in 1949.
In 1935, Herbert Pfleiderer enters the company as director at the age of 23; four years later he has to join the army. He survives the Second World War badly injured: he is wounded four times and loses his right arm.
GAP's headquarters in Neumarkt around 1950.
In the postwar years, Herbert Pfleiderer at first manages the company of his brother in law in Heilbronn. In 1949, he returns to Neumarkt to support his father. In the same year, he takes over the complete management of the company, which has now grown to 300 employees and has annual sales revenues of DM 15 million.
Information for the employees: a copy of "Holzwurm" ("Woodworm") from 1958.
Herbert Pfleiderer already introduces a company pension for the employees in 1949; as of 1950 there is performance-related pay, and a year later the company launches "Holzwurm" ("Woodworm") – its own company newspaper. Soon there is a company band, a company library, and even a company sauna. In 1955, the management introduces the five-day week. As of 1968, employees are involved in the organization of apprenticeships and an employee-share scheme starts in 1969. As of 1976, the employees have access to their own company doctor.
In 1970, Pfleiderer has approximately 1,000 employees, and the next change of generation is not far away. Ernst-Herbert Pfleiderer enters the company and takes over the management three years later. The size of the company leads to the first division into three areas of responsibility: Commercial, Technical and Central Management; a Supervisory Board is also formed.
The transformation from a family company into an international group leads to the establishment of the company G.A. Pfleiderer Unternehmensverwaltungsgesellschaft in 1982. Ernst-Herbert Pfleiderer and Dr. Hans-Peter Mall share the management of the areas of responsibility, which are meanwhile organized along operational lines.
n addition to wooden and concrete products, insulation materials and plastic products are now added to the portfolio. The expansion of market presence in Germany is triggered by the takeover of the Moralt plants in Bad Tölz in 1979. Further acquisitions are Duropal in Arnsberg in 1986, Wirus in Gütersloh in 1988, and an equity holding in Thermopal in Leutkirch in 1983. Already in 1981, Pfleiderer has acquired shares in EFP Engineered Fibreglass Products Inc. in Estill, South Carolina (USA) and has thus begun its international expansion. By the end of the nineteen-nineties, the Group employs more than 10,000 persons worldwide.
Transport technology and particleboard production: just two of the four operational units that were formed in 1986.
Pfleiderer makes an initial public offering of its shares in 1997.
During the nineteen-nineties, revenues increase from DM 1,5 billion to more than DM 3 billion. Approximately 11,200 persons are now employed at 40 locations. The family decides to establish a stock corporation, thus separating the company's capital from the family's interests. On July 15, 1997, shares in Pfleiderer AG are traded at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange for the first time. Dr. Hans-Peter Mall becomes Chairman of the Executive Board (CEO) of Pfleiderer AG. Ernst-Herbert Pfleiderer, who has already been Chairman of Pfleiderer's Supervisory Board since 1991, remains in this position.
Concentration on the corporate areas of Engineered Wood and Infrastructure.
In the year 2000, Dr. Ralf H. Bufe becomes Chairman of the Executive Board. He decides on a new corporate structure and to focus on the two areas of Engineered Wood and Infrastructure. The Group discontinues its activities in the construction-related areas of Windows, Doors and Insulation Technology in 2002.
Dr. Ralf H. Bufe leaves the company in August 2003. Hans H. Overdiek, previously Executive Board member responsible for Engineered Wood, becomes the new Speaker of the Executive Board. Under his leadership, the Group effectively positions itself as one of the world's leading and most financially successful manufacturers of engineered wood.
The corporate policy aims to focus on the engineered-wood business while enhancing the Group's market and competitive situation. In this way, Pfleiderer will create new business opportunities in the international markets for engineered wood and furniture supplies as well as laminated flooring.
Pfleiderer focuses on engineered wood. This picture shows the production of particleboard.
A decisive step towards further growth is taken in 2005 with the acquisition and integration of the competitor, Kunz. In addition to economies of scale, Pfleiderer also improves its situation with new products, new sales markets with attractive revenue potential, and new customer groups. With this acquisition, Pfleiderer becomes one of the world's leading system suppliers of engineered wood for the furniture industry and interior fittings.
The strategic transformation of the Pfleiderer Group is well advanced in 2005: The course has been set for new growth, improved profitability, and future entrepreneurial scope.
With the sale of the Track Systems business unit in the spring of 2006, Pfleiderer completes its strategic transformation of the Group and in the future will focus solely on the international expansion of the Engineered Wood business. This year, there is also a capital increase – together with the completed transaction this is an ideal basis to enhance the profitability of the Pfleiderer Group through targeted investments. In this way, the Group will be effectively strengthened over the long term in Western Europe and the growth regions of North America and Eastern Europe.
At the beginning of 2006, Pfleiderer AG acquires the Polish glue producer, Silekól, and in autumn of the same year starts production in the newly built particleboard factory in Novgorod, Russia. At this time, the particleboard production is the most modern in the Russian market.
The Group's profitable growth strategy is based on organic growth and acquisitions. In 2007 Pfleiderer AG is focused on strengthening its market and competitive position with products and expanding its presence in markets with growth rates. In the record time of ten months, the Group completes a thin-MDF plant in Grajewo, Poland.
Following the successful integration of the Kunz Group, the next step in the expansion of global market presence is the acquisition of Pergo, the renowned Swedish manufacturer of laminated flooring, in March 2007. This takeover makes Pfleiderer North America's leading fully integrated manufacturer of laminated flooring and opens up this market segment also in Europe.
Effective November 1, 2007, the Supervisory Board appoints Hans H. Overdiek as Chief Executive Officer of Pfleiderer AG; previously Mr. Overdiek was Speaker of the Executive Board.
The worldwide economic crisis also affects Pfleiderer and has resulted in comprehensive restructuring of the group. Apart from the financial restructuring, since the end of 2010 the company has also pushed ahead with the comprehensive reorganisation of its business activities. This included selling the loss-making business in the USA and Canada and the business units in Europe and activities in Russia.
On 27th November 2012, Pfleiderer stopped the trading of its shares. Atlantik S.A. Luxembourg became the sole shareholder. In 2012, Pfleiderer spent their time instigatingacorporate strategy, which aligns the company under the Pfleiderer umbrella brand.
With the sale of the Russian site in Novgorod in January 2013, the restructuring of the Pfleiderer Group is complete. It now consists of the profitable West Europe business centre, especially the production and sales companies operating in Germany, and continues to hold the majority shareholding in Pfleiderer Grajewo S.A., which has a strong position in the Polish wood-based panels market.
The Pfleiderer Group S.A. returns to the stock exchange in Warsaw after three years.


Brain tumors on the rise in Denmark. Why?
After that, there was silence. No one talked about the spike in glioblastomas. Over the following year, we kept asking people whether there was any follow-up news. But there was nothing.


There are 2 reviews of Lily.
Roja Dove does it again with this singular white flower experience. Except this time it's Lily flower that's center stage and smelling really convincing.
A lady's perfume to be sure, Lily seems to run right to the lily accord from seconds after spray-on. I can slightly make out the carnation, jasmine, rose, and ylang; I haven't smelled tiare flower - aka monoi - which here adds a subdued gardenia-like touch within (and apparently monoi essence is a common note used in suntan lotion - so bright and shiny!).
Great sillage and longevity overall. Lily holds promise to fulfill any fan's desire to wear this lovely note!
From the word "go" a potpourri hits me in the opening blast, dominated by the lily that gives this product its name. Initially a touch of bergamot brightens it up a bit, but from then on the flowers are in full blossom.
The lily remains strong throughout, a bit like holding a bouquet in one's hand. It is an intensive, rich and very convincing natural lily note. At times a light and lovely jasmine, a somewhat unexciting rose and a white carnation vie for my attention, but they are mere accompaniments to the song of the lily.
The perfomance is stupendous: Strong sillage, excellent projection and a monstrous fourteen hours of longevity on my skin - wow!
There are no member images of Lily yet. Why not be the first?

Volkswagen Passat B5 (type 3B) var en stor mellemklassebil fra Volkswagen, som i efteråret 1996 (til modelåret 1997) afløste Passat B4.

Den oprindelige version af Passat B5 blev fremstillet mellem august 1996 (Variant: maj 1997) og september 2000, mens den reviderede model (B5 GP) var i produktion fra oktober 2000 til februar 2005. Tilnavnet "GP" står for "Große Produktaufwertung", Volkswagens betegnelse for facelift som i dette tilfælde hovedsageligt bestod af udvendige modifikationer. Bilen blev fremstillet i Tyskland på de to fabrikker i Emden og Mosel/Sachsen (sidstnævnte kun Limousine).

I foråret 2005 kom Passat B6 på markedet som efterfølger.

Passat B5/3B (1996−2000)

Passat B5 blev præsenteret officielt i Europa den 11. oktober 1996. Modellen havde rigtig gode pladsforhold ved bagsædet. I modsætning til forgængeren B4 var motoren igen ligesom i de to første modelgenerationer af Passat, som blev fremstillet frem til 1988, monteret på langs. Drivlinjen var identisk med den i 1994 introducerede Audi A4. Begge disse modeller benyttede den samme platform, PL45.

Modellen introducerede det dengang nye formsprog, som første gang blev set på prototypen Concept 1 fra 1995, og som kunne genfindes på den i slutningen af 1997 introducerede Golf IV. Med Passat B5 ville Volkswagen sætte nye kvalitetsstandarder for fremtidige produkter fra firmaet: Karrosseriet var fuldt forzinket og Volkswagen gav en garanti på 11 år mod gennemtæring. B5 fik ros for sin kørekomfort; hertil bidrog bl.a. det stive karrosseri, den fireleddede foraksel fra Audi A4 samt en nyudviklet bagaksel. Salgsforholdet mellem stationcar (Variant) og sedan (Limousine) var ca. 80:20.

B5 var den første model med CAN-Bus til komfortsystemerne. Dette førte dog ofte til problemer med bl.a. centrallåsesystemet. Den mekaniske kvalitet var i starten relativt ringe: Løse sporstangsled samt rustdannelse på bagklappen var udbredt på disse biler. De talrige kvalitetsproblemer hang sammen med den daværende administrerende direktør López' politikker.

Mange af problemerne blev af VW afhjulpet i tidens løb, hvortil faceliftet i efteråret 2000 bidrog.

Typenumre
 Limousine: 3B2
 Variant: 3B5

Tekniske data
Motorerne 1.8 (92 kW/125 hk), 2.3 VR5 (110 kW/150 hk), 1.9 TDI (81 kW/110 hk), 1.9 TDI (85 kW/115 hk) og 2.5 TDI (110 kW/150 hk) kunne mod merpris leveres med firehjulstræk. 2.8 V6 (142 kW/193 hk) var derimod standardudstyret med firehjulstræksystemet Syncro hhv. 4Motion (fra april 1999). Dette system var næsten identisk med Audis quattro-system.

Benzinmotorer

Dieselmotorer

Bemærkninger:
 TDI-skrifttrækket på 1,9- og 2,5-litersmotorerne med fordelerindsprøjtningspumpe og 81 kW (110 hk) hhv. 110 kW (150 hk) kunne kendes på det røde "I".
 TDI-skrifttrækket på 1,9-liters pumpe/dyse-motorerne med 74 kW (100 hk) kunne kendes på det røde "I" og for 85 kW (115 hk) på det røde "DI".

Passat B5 GP/3BG (2000−2005)

Produktionen af Passat type 3BG hhv. B5 GP ("Große Produktaufwertung") startede i oktober 2000, og modellen kom ud til forhandlerne en måned senere.

B5 GP adskilte sig fra den oprindelige Passat B5 gennem optiske modifikationer og modificerede for- og baglygter. Forlygterne fik klart glas, forkromede indsatser og skarpere konturierede blinklys. Bagpå var den nyindførte optik med runde lygter særligt bemærkelsesværdig, da den − også efter Volkswagens ansættelse af designeren Walter de Silva − kendetegnede andre Volkswagen-biler. Den mekaniske kvalitet blev betydeligt forbedret, og 1,9-liters dieselmotorerne fik alle pumpe/dyse-indsprøjtning.

En forlænget platform blev introduceret i Kina af Shanghai-Volkswagen i slutningen af 1999. Denne version blev introduceret i Europa som Škoda Superb i efteråret 2001 og havde en 100 mm længere akselafstand og længde end den europæiske Passat.

Fra september 2001 blev programmet udvidet med en ottecylindret version (W8-motor) med 4Motion-firehjulstræk, som fandtes som både Limousine og Variant under navnet Passat W8 (type 3BS). Salgstallene for denne eksklusive version forblev med kun 2.359 solgte eksemplarer lave, og den udgik derfor i efteråret 2004 (til modelåret 2005), et halvt år inden resten af modelserien. W8 fandtes også som pansret bil under navnet Passat Protect.

I slutningen af 2003 (til modelåret 2004) blev motorprogrammet udvidet med en 2,0-liters TDI-motor med partikelfilter og 100 kW (136 hk), som igen kunne øge de dalende salgstal. Bemærkelsesværdigt for denne version var, at den som den første Volkswagen-model var udstyret med dette filtersystem. Systemet bestod af et additivdoseringsanlæg, som blandede brændstoffet sammen med en urinstofopløsning fra en ekstra tank bagest i bilen. Denne teknologi blev dog senere afskaffet igen.

I sommeren 2003 fik Passat et yderligere mindre facelift, dog under samme produktbetegnelse som hidtil. Disse biler kunne kendes på de modificerede sidespejle med integrerede blinklys, instrumentbrættets ændrede grundfarve og de antracitgrå i stedet for sorte dørbeklædninger. Desuden blev udstyrsvarianterne modificeret.

Typenumre
 Limousine: 3B3
 Variant: 3B6

Tekniske data
Motorerne 2.0 (85 kW/115 hk), 2.3 V5 (125 kW/170 hk), 1.9 TDI (96 kW/130 hk) og 2.5 TDI (110 kW/150 hk) kunne mod merpris bestilles med firehjulstræk, som var standard på 2.8 V6 (142 kW/193 hk), 2.5 TDI (132 kW/180 hk) og 4.0 W8 (202 kW/275 hk). Systemet (4Motion) var næsten identisk med Audis quattro-system.

Currently on display through February 16, 2015 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art is The Leonard A. Lauder Collection: Braque, Gris, Leger, Picasso.
I was captivated by the work of Juan Gris,1887-1927and wanted to share a bit about the artist, a spanish painter and sculptor born in Madrid and who lived and worked in France most of his life.
In 1906 he moved to Paris and became friends with Henri Matisse, Georges Braque and Fernand Leger. While in Paris, he befriended Picasso. At first, Gris painted in the style of Analytic Cubism, a term he coined. After 1913 he converted to Synthetic Cubism and the use of collage. Given the other names associated with Cubism, I've paid less attention to Gris. Its stated that although he regarded Picasso as a teacher, Gertrude Stein acknowledged that Gris "was the one person that Picasso would have willingly wiped off the map."
Here, at the MET, his work hung in its own room which allowed me the space to appreciate it. I discovered his use of bright colors and lively compositions that are familiar in Matisses works, as well as his strength in drawing and design.

It was already confirmed earlier that there would be more killstreaks after the AC-130, but who would have thought that the last killstreak is a tactical nuke? After getting a killstreak of 25, you can use it and kill everyone, including you, for an instant win.
If you haven't guessed, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is already being sold in some stores (for a premium price), even though the official release date is still 9 days away. The Xbox 360 version of MW2 has also leaked to the internet.

Katrina Kaif refuses to promote Jagga Jasoos with ex-lover Ranbir Kapoor?
Buzz has it that Katrina Kaif will reportedly not promote Jagga Jasoos with ex-lover Ranbir Kapoor.
India Today Web Desk
New Delhi,UPDATED: Jan 11, 2017 16:40 IST
Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif in a still from Jagga Jasoos
By India Today Web Desk: It's been almost a year since Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor decided to part ways. If the two have ignored each other off camera, they have maintained a stoic silence on camera. And with the two shooting for a film together amidst their break-up, things have been too uncomfortable. However, despite the break-up, the ex-lovers, like thorough professionals, kept on shooting for Anurag Basu's Jagga Jasoos. But it seems after all this time, Katrina doesn't want to do anything with her ex-flame anymore and has apparently refused to promote the film with Ranbir.
ALSO READ: Ranbir-Katrina asked to promote Jagga Jasoos like Deepika-Ranveer?
ALSO READ: How did Katrina Kaif react to Ranbir Kapoor's Koffee With Karan episode, you wonder?
According to a report in Mid-Day, buzz has it that it Katrina is in no mood to promote Jagga Jasoos with Ranbir.
The report further suggests that Ranbir has no qualms in promoting the film with Katrina, but the Baar Baar Dekho actor has put her foot down.
In fact, a few months ago, rumours had it that the makers of Jagga Jasoos had issued a diktat to Ranbir and Katrina to keep their personal differences aside and promote the film with more affection. In fact, they wanted the ex-lovers to follow in the footsteps of Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone in terms of film promotions.
But that seems like a distant dream right now with Ranbir and Katrina maintaining a stoic silence.
Jagga Jasoos is set to hit the screens on April 7.

HTML Panel Tips #22: Protecting your Code | Davide Barranca — Photoshop, etc.
About one year ago I had a so-called aha moment and decided to write a book. I had two or three subjects in mind, first choice was HTML Panels' Licensing Solutions – i.e. how to build trial versions, anti-piracy systems, and the like. Luckily, and I really mean: luckily, I changed my mind and tackled a topic appealing to a slightly broader audience: the HTML Panels Development course was born.
Still, licensing systems in the context of HTML Panels are a soft spot of mine (see my old post about partial serial number verification), and I wish I had time to write that book! I did build, from my biased point of view, very good prototypes back then: for instance implementing RSA encryption, or server-side automatic licensing files delivery to be used in conjunction with e-commerce providers. Whatever you choose to do, you're protection system must rely on secured code that nobody can look at – which is what this article is all about.
As a due preamble, there's no such a thing as unbreakable software. Let's admit however that you and I, we're possibly not building stuff that has very much appeal to the international crackers community, no? For whatever reason we like to keep our code hidden (privacy, licensing systems as a form of respect to paid users…), chances are that the malice level of our wannabe pirates is not worldwide top-notch. Neither we want to die in the process of keeping our code protect, and spend too many sleepless nights over that.
As an engineer I collaborate with uses to say, "I would rather spend time building and earning money on new products". So, a fair compromise in my opinion is to do the best that we can, being aware of both the context our products belong to (their price, spread, number of users, etc.) and the resources needed to protect them. So my own goal is to make it "sealed enough". Where to put the bar, it's up to you.
Theory says that, like with any other cyphertext, given an infinite number of plain text and cypher pairs (say, Jsx and corresponding JsxBin), you can find the key to decode it. Which is what ExtendScript Toolkit (aka ESTK) provides you: just start with var a; and inspect the resulting JsxBin code, then keep adding complexity and write down your findings. On and on and on… until you're bored to death (unless you're a cryptography enthusiast).
You will understand me if I'm vague here – we're at the dangerous intersection of legal and privacy issues – but lately JsxBin proved to be… not as sealed as we liked to think. I'm not saying that everybody can flip and turn it back into readable code in a snap (can you? can somebody you know?), but the probability that somebody can decypher your JsxBin isn't zero anymore. I'd say quite small, but not zero.
I've been using these terms loosely, but they express different ideas.
…the very same website provides a twin service able to perfectly restore / beautify its own obfuscated code, making the whole obfuscation page… quite pointless – no? Second, always do test your code thoroughly. ExtendScript may seem to work, but in fact it may not.
Above, all the settings that I've been able to use in the free tier. Good news: at least with them, ExtendScript code is perfectly fine and happy, so this is definitely an option. According to them, that security level is low – they provide more advanced features – yet again, it depends on who you think you're dealing with when protecting your code.
Export to binary the original, plain Jsx using ESTK. You get a JsxBin file (nothing different from what we're used to).
Process the above JsxBin through JsxBlind. You get another JsxBin file.
JsxBlind is provided for free – refer to the original blogpost for all the details. Please note that, depending on your coding style, function names obfuscation (which is optional) may or may not work. Moreover, ExtendScript support varies among Creative Cloud applications: Marc is an InDesign developer so that is his platform of choice, Photoshop seems to work as well, but do test your obfuscated code before shipping.
I've shown here 4 valid alternatives – let me sum up here my own operative and strategic suggestions.
Keep in mind the reason why you're protecting your code, and balance the resources you're putting into this process, versus the results you're getting and your actual needs.
JsxBin isn't dead. The large majority of those who might be involved into the evil business of spying your code don't have any key to open that lock.

Een negatief getal is in Nederland een getal dat kleiner is dan 0. In België noemt men een dergelijk getal een strikt negatief getal.

Een (strikt) negatief getal is het tegengestelde van het overeenkomstige (strikt) positieve getal, wat inhoudt dat optelling van deze beide getallen als som het getal 0 oplevert.

Negatieve getallen zijn te herkennen aan een minteken (−), dat voor het overeenkomstige positieve getal is geplaatst.

De getallenlijn

De relatie tussen negatieve getallen, positieve getallen en nul wordt vaak grafisch afgebeeld in de vorm van een getallenlijn:

Hoe meer naar rechts een getal zich op de getallenlijn bevindt, hoe groter dit getal is. Van twee getallen op de getallenlijn is het rechter getal groter dan het linker. Op de grens van de positieve getallen en de negatieve getallen bevindt zich het getal nul. Rechts daarvan staan de positieve getallen en links ervan de negatieve.

Symbolen
De volgende symbolen worden in de wiskunde voor verzamelingen van negatieve getallen gebruikt:

 De verzameling der negatieve reële getallen:
 De verzameling der negatieve rationale getallen:
 De verzameling der negatieve gehele getallen:

Opmerking: de verzameling  der natuurlijke getallen bevat geen negatieve getallen.

Verschil in definitie tussen Nederland en België en Frankrijk
In België en Frankrijk wordt het getal 0 als zowel positief als negatief beschouwd. In Nederland geldt het getal 0 noch als negatief noch als positief. Getallen kleiner dan nul worden in België strikt negatief genoemd.

Geschiedenis
Negatieve getallen verschijnen voor het eerst in de geschiedenis in De negen hoofdstukken van de wiskundige kunst (Jiu zhang suan-shu), dat in zijn huidige vorm uit de periode van de Han-dynastie (202 v.Chr. - 220 n.Chr.) dateert, maar dat ook veel ouder materiaal kan bevatten. De Negen hoofdstukken gebruiken rode telstaafjes om positieve coëfficiënten en zwarte staafjes om negatieve coëfficiënten aan te geven. Dit kleursysteem is merkwaardigerwijs precies tegengesteld aan de hedendaagse gewoonte in de financiële wereld om rode cijfers te gebruiken om negatieve - en zwarte cijfers om positieve bedragen weer te geven. De Chinezen waren ook in staat om simultane vergelijkingen met negatieve getallen op te lossen.

Lange tijd werden negatieve oplossingen voor problemen als "verkeerd" beschouwd. In het Hellenistische Egypte verwees de Oud-Griekse wiskundige Diophantus in zijn Arithmetica in de derde eeuw n.Chr. naar een vergelijking die gelijkwaardig was aan  (deze vergelijking heeft een negatieve oplossing) als zijnde een absurde vergelijking.

In de 7e eeuw na Christus werden negatieve getallen in India gebruikt om schulden weer te geven. De Indiase wiskundige Brahmagupta bediscussieert in Brahmasphuta-siddhanta (geschreven in 628 n.Chr.) het gebruik van negatieve getallen om zo de algemene vorm van een kwadratische formule te produceren, die ook nu nog in gebruik is. Hij vond ook negatieve oplossingen van vierkantsvergelijkingen en gaf regels met betrekking tot basisoperaties, waarbij negatieve getallen en ook het getal nul deel van uitmaakten, zoals 'Een schuld afgetrokken van het niets wordt een krediet, een krediet afgetrokken van het niets wordt een schuld." Hij noemde positieve getallen "fortuinen", nul "een cijfer" en negatieve getallen "schulden".

Kennis van de negatieve getallen bereikte dankzij Latijnse vertalingen van Arabische en Indiase werken uiteindelijk Europa.

Europese wiskundigen verzetten zich voor het grootste deel tot in de 17e eeuw tegen het concept van negatieve getallen, hoewel Fibonacci negatieve oplossingen in financiële problemen toestond, waar zij als schulden konden worden geïnterpreteerd (hoofdstuk 13 van Liber Abaci, 1202 n.Chr) en later als verliezen (in Flos).

In de 15e eeuw gebruikte de Franse wiskundige, Nicolas Chuquet negatieve getallen als exponenten en verwees hiernaar als "absurde getallen".
