What causes an economy to prosper is giving freedom to the people who are able to produce new products and services that other people want. It's really as simple as that. If you allow the productive people to be productive and you don't penalize them for being productive through excessive taxation and excessive regulation, an economy will prosper.
Syndicated columnist and author, Ben Shapiro
A minimum wage requirement always impacts an economy horrifically. A minimum wage doesn't work and always increases unemployment. It's just basic common sense that the minute you tell people that they have to pay more for labor, they're going to buy fewer units. If the price is raised on gasoline, people tend to buy less gasoline, if the price is raised on cereal, less cereal will be sold and if the price of labor is raised, people tend to buy less labor.
The government should do very little. The government's only job in an economy should be to prevent things like fraud, but other than this, in my opinion, the government should play very little role. It's not their job to push particular programs and or businesses, it's their job to get out of the way, and to allow people who earn and produce products that other people want, to do just that.
When the government does become involved , it's almost invariably detrimental. For example, people like to say that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is evidence that when the government becomes involved, things become better, but the fact is that all it does is create more hazard by encouraging people not to conduct their research before investing in things like stock.
Whenever the government gets involved, all they tend to do is shift burdens from those who are less productive to those who are more productive. They tend to do things like reduce productivity, over-regulate when they seek to merely prevent basic things like fraud and redistribute according to the legislator's favorite businesses or interests. Nothing good generally happens when the government gets involved in the economy.
Workers unions play an important role in the economy unless they start beating people up. Collective bargaining is not anti-free market, rather, collective bargaining is an element of the free market and if workers get together and decide to strike for higher pay that's absolutely their prerogative. On the other hand, what is not their prerogative is to beat up those people who cross the picket lines, because at that point it's not a matter of economics. The fact is that you don't have a right to beat up person up just because there is a certain job which somebody is willing to fill for lower pay.
So unions have a role but only as long as there's actual unanimity and only as long as the workers actually agree to participate, but not if there's coercive behavior and bullying.
The wealthy in this country are by and large the job creators. Tax them, and they will cut jobs because it impedes their ability to create. Money only stretches so far so it's not a matter of the wealthy simply wanting to earn more, but a matter of making prudent decisions that don't deplete their capital in a time when they could lose everything in a weak market. If they're not creating jobs now, they'll be cutting jobs if the taxes rise.
I think a flat tax or a national sales tax in the mold of the fair tax would be most effective. Either one of those two options would be fine with me as long as the rate is somewhere around 20%.
The truth is that if you talk simply in terms of effectiveness, the most effective thing is to not tax the upper end of the income bracket very much at all because those people are the ones actually earning money, producing products, providing services and hiring people. A flat tax is the best balance between equity and efficiency. I think it's perfectly equitable because by nature percentages are perfectly equitable - it's not a flat sum, it's a flat rate. If someone has a smaller pie, a smaller piece will be taken out of the pie.
In terms of efficiency, a national sales tax is probably slightly more efficient, because it allows consumers to buy products based on their actual needs and desires, and to decide for themselves how much they want to be taxed. If they don't want to be taxed very much, they don't have to buy luxury items.
I think people disagree because they start from different premises. I think one of the great fallacies of conservative thought is that liberals have no logic to them. Liberals absolutely have a logic to them, it's just that they are starting from an incredibly different premise. They're starting from the premise that there are basically no rights in the individual, all rights reside in the state and it is the job of the state to equally distribute these rights among individuals. Conservatives believe that there are certain inherent rights in the individual and the government no matter how legitimately constructed has no right to violate those rights.
If the majority suggested that they wanted to kill the minority, according to conservatives that would be a problem, but according to liberals it may not be as much of a problem. We see that in communist states around the world, where they have no problem killing the minorities in large numbers.
So they start from different premises and once you start from different premises you can make logical arguments on both fronts and people disagree. Law and politics is basically like an iceberg, and what people spend their time arguing over is the 10 percent above the water and they never attack the 90 percent that is below the water even though it is actually the important part.
Most people on the right agree that there are certain moral principles which cannot be violated, most people on the left believe that morality is created by the minds of men and is therefore changeable and malleable. These are very significant differences in the way that we see the world, because of basic premises not misapplied logic.

Home/Energy/Production Begins: 217 MPH Pininfarina Battista
Production Begins: 217 MPH Pininfarina Battista
July 18, 2022Last Updated: July 18, 2022
It's the most powerful, all-electric hypercar designed by the people who created hypercars in the first place. Meet the Pininfarina Battista!
What's all that about "the people who created the hypercar?" Let me try to explain – see, way back in the before time, pre-1987, there were a few supercars, sure. A Lamborghini Countach here, a Porsche 930 there, and maybe even Magnum P.I.'s Ferrari (if you're too young to know who that is, ask your mom). All nice cars, all reasonably fast, but very much of their era. Then, in 1987, Ferrari Launched the F40, and all that changed.
That car was unlike anything yet seen in its day. It had a Formula 1-style monocoque chassis, carbon fiber bits, lightweight composites, and a computer-controlled, turbocharged V8 engine. Depending on who you asked, that Ferrari would go from 0-60 in about 3.8 seconds and pull all the way to a 197 MPH top speed (or 201, if you ask Ferrari). Very neat stuff, but it was the towering rear wing that would burn the F40 into the hearts and minds of young car enthusiasts. You can see for yourself how pretty it was …
<img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-271892" data-attachment-id="271892" data-permalink="https://cleantechnica.com/2022/07/18/production-begins-217-mph-pininfarina-battista/ferrari_f40/" data-orig-file="https://cleantechnica.com/files/2022/07/ferrari_f40.jpg" data-orig-size="800,450" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="ferrari_f40" data-image-description data-image-caption="

… and almost every inch of that prettiness was styled by Pininfarina.
Pininfarina isn't a person, though – it's a company. More accurately, a design house. Named after its founder, Battista "Pinin" Farina, the company is responsible for dozens of great-looking, iconic cars, and it's stayed in the family. After changing their last name to "Pininfarina," Battista's son, Sergio, ran the firm until 2001, until his son took over, etc.
So, here we are in 2022, and Pininfarina has designed another groundbreaking hypercar. This time, though, it's not wearing Ferrari's logo – they're going it alone. And, as for the car goes? It stands alone, too.
There's almost nothing you can say about the Pininfarina Battista hypercar that doesn't sound made up. It accelerates from 0-60 MPH in well under 2.0 seconds, for example. Maybe you can wrap your head around that bit of trivia, but have you experienced it? The car's top speed, 217 MPH, is another mind-bender — and, before the Tesla contingent chimes in, the Battista is electronically limited to 217 MPH, with claims of 250+ MPH seeming to the least "made up" of the claims swirling around this car.
It's a thing, in other words. And now, too, it is a very real thing. Production of the $2 million exotic has officially begun at the tiny, 7,500 sq. ft. space in Cambiano, Italy, into a for-real production line where a team of 10 talented craftspeople will hand-build each of the 150 pre-sold Battista cars in 1,250 hours (plus an additional 90 hours of work for the hand-applied paint finish).
For context, it takes about 18 hours to build a Toyota Camry.
Check out the photo gallery video, below, then let us know what you think of the Battista – and whether you think that 85x jump in man-hours seems legit – in the comments section at the bottom of the page.

Trump's Tariff on Solar Panels Could Drastically Set Back Renewable Energy Initiatives
Emily FolkSolar Energy July 16, 2018
In January, President Trump decided to place tariffs on solar panels imported from countries such as China. The rates will start at 30 percent and gradually decrease to 15 percent over four years. The first 2.5 gigawatts (GW) of panels will be exempt from the tariffs [1].
Many U.S. solar companies and renewable energy advocates have spoken out against the decision, saying it would harm the solar industry and discourage progress toward clean energy goals.
Canceled installations
The decision to approve the tariffs caused some significant shifts in the industry and has already had some damaging impacts. Adding the costs of duties to projects, of course, makes them more expensive. In some cases, this has made it impossible for them to compete. Initially, it's expected to increase the cost of large solar installations by 10 percent.
Reuters recently reported that American renewable energy companies plan to cancel or put on hold large installation projects totaling more than $2.5 billion. The industry completed $6.8 billion in total utility-scale installations last year.
Job losses and gains
The Solar Energy Industries Association has said that the duties could cost workers up to 23,000 jobs due to this stunted growth. Most of the losses will come from installation.
Manufacturing jobs, on the other hand, have increased slightly. The tariffs have contributed to the creation of approximately 700 jobs thus far in manufacturing facilities in Ohio and Florida [2].
With the cost of imported panels raised, buying foreign panels is less advantageous. This has inspired several companies, including foreign-owned institutions, to expand or build solar manufacturing facilities in the U.S.
SunPower Corp. and First Solar Inc., both U.S. companies, have said they plan to increase production in Oregon and Ohio. Hanwha Q Cells Korea also recently announced plans to build a manufacturing facility in Georgia, and China's JinkoSolar Holding Co. will construct one in Florida [3].
Bloomberg New Energy Finance has forecasted that the duties could boost U.S. solar panel production capacity by 3.4 GW, as compared to 1.8 GW at the end of the previous year.
Bloomberg New Energy Finance analyst Hugh Bromley said that, despite the impressive numbers, the benefits to the American economy would be minimal. Solar manufacturing is becoming increasingly automated and, therefore, requires fewer workers than in the past. Much of the profits will also flow out of the United States to the foreign corporations that own the facilities [4].
Solar bounces back
Trump's solar tariffs may cause increased solar manufacturing in the United States but result in fewer jobs for the overall solar industry, as well as fewer U.S. solar installations. However, it appears that the negative impacts won't last long.
The solar industry had a strong first quarter in 2018, installing 2.5 GW for a 13 percent year-over-year increase, according to the U.S. Solar Market Insight Report. The report goes on to forecast that solar deployment this year will match last year's 10.6 GW. This may be a sign that the sector is strong enough that the tariffs did not have as much of an impact as expected.
Besides, there's a chance we may soon see this decision reversed. Various companies have already requested exemptions from the tariffs, which are still under consideration. Senator Dean Heller, a Republican from Nevada, recently introduced a bill that would eliminate the taxes. Sen. Heller cited protecting jobs and the economy as the reason he introduced the legislation.

Daily stories


With changing seasons often comes a wardrobe overhaul - especially for younger children who grow out of their clothes so quickly! Capsule wardrobes are quickly gaining popularity as a strategy to declutter our closets, reduce textile waste, and make our wardrobes more functional. They can also be applied to our kids' closets, with the added benefit of teaching them how to dress themselves in clothes they like and that match. A lesson best learned, I would suggest, at your local paint store.
Building a capsule wardrobe -- either your own, or one for your child -- has everything to do with really looking at, and understanding colour -- and then living with less. Let's take a look at how the capsule wardrobe can be applied to kids' clothes.
While you work together in their closet, talk with the kids about colour names and descriptions that go beyond basic primaries: Is that "pink" really peach, magenta or fuschia? When you wear warm colours you look like fire! What colours does Elsa wear to show that she's "cool"? Learning to put together outfits that "go" starts with learning to really see, describe and compare colours. Pick up a selection of design brochures from a paint store, and let your child help choose which groupings appeal to him/her. The beauty of this plan is that the work of figuring out which combinations "go" has been done for you!
Make a plan to redistribute your unneeded clothes responsibly. As the owner of a children's clothing resale shop, I love the idea of finding new families to love the things we no longer want or need. With resale, consignment and charitable donation and textile recycling options in every community, there's no need for anything to go to waste.
Method 1: Eliminate Outliers - Which of these things is not like the other?
First, push all the neutral coloured pieces to one end of the closet, or for folded pieces, place them together on the bed. Neutrals are the workhorse of any capsule wardrobe. They work well with any colour palette and are, within reason, "keepers." Neutrals include: black, grey, taupe/beige, white, cream, navy blue and, of course, jeans. Pack up anything that no longer fits your child -- no matter how neutral, attractive or functional -- and box it up for either resale or donation.
Next, organize the remaining clothes into outfits. When an item could be paired with multiple outfits, place those together as a set. The idea is to create sets of clothing with overlapping connections -- like a Venn diagram -- so that every item has two, or even three other pieces that work well.
Allow your family to go longer between laundry days. With a capsule wardrobe, your child works through his/her whole closet each week with lots of possible combinations.
Paint companies have spent a long time figuring out what colours look great together, and representing all the colours of the rainbow. Build a collection of 5 or 6 colours that you love on your child, and work well together, using paint chips from your local home store. Using a single-hole punch and a brass brad, create a palette fan that you can carry in your purse. When shopping, compare any item you're considering against your paint palette. It doesn't need to be a "match" but it needs to blend rather than fight with the colours guiding your capsule wardrobe.
You can easily build your own palette of favourite hues at any local paint store. The key to building a highly functional capsule wardrobe this way is to select your favourite of these looks, and take a pass on the pieces from other colour families -- at least for this season. The solution to a closet full of pinks that don't work well together? Choose one hue and stick with the lighter and darker versions of it, like a paint chip.
Muted, or pale greyed-out colours are a very sophisticated palette for little ones. This is a very European palette favoured by many French and Quebecois children's boutiques.
Can't pick a palette? It's hard! I bet you have a favourite piece in your child's closet. Choose a piece with pattern that you love and take a photo of it (in good, natural light) on your phone. When you're shopping, consult it and choose pieces like sweaters, leggings, tights, skirts, tops, etc. that pull those colours out of the fabric pattern.
Here are some examples of great focal pieces that lend themselves to this technique. On the left, we have a primary colour scheme on a neutral grey ground. There are at least six great colours to be pulled from this fantastic thrift store find, making it a strong (and environmental) choice as the focal point of a capsule wardrobe. The floral skinny jeans featured on the right (also a secondhand score) suggest a palette of muted aquas and teals, with peachy ballet pink accents. Growing this wardrobe with taupes, soft greys and lavender would be a cinch.
The advantages of capsule wardrobes for kids mirror our own: minimalism is great for the environment, helps us learn to be happy with less, decreases family laundry and makes getting dressed in the morning a snap. Add to that the learning to be had around colour theory, and about caring for our belongings, and "less" is definitely more.

Модульное оригами — техника складывания оригами, которая, в отличие от классического оригами, использует в процессе складывания несколько листов бумаги. Каждый отдельный листок складывается в модуль по правилам классического оригами, а затем модули соединяются путём вкладывания их друг в друга. Появляющаяся при этом сила трения не даёт конструкции распасться. Снятие ограничения на количество листов позволяет с большей лёгкостью создавать крупные модели со сложной структурой.

Ограничения и особенности
Модульное оригами подразумевает складывание из многих одинаковых модулей (последние, правда могут быть разных типов). Это отличает модульное оригами от более общего случая многолистного оригами, где идентичность модулей не существенна. В сколько-нибудь сложных изделиях объёмного модульного оригами (например, большинство кусудам) без использования клея и других средств соединения обойтись не удаётся. Лишь в простых случаях (кубик Сонобе, целый ряд плоских изделий и т.п.) модули достаточно прочно держатся друг за друга лишь за счёт силы трения. Однако и при составлении плоских панно-оригами из многих сотен, а порой и тысяч модулей, нередко используется клей.

В зависимости от способа соединения модулей между собой можно получить ту или иную конструкцию. Модели модульного оригами могут быть как плоскими, так и трёхмерными. Первые обычно представлены многоугольниками (их обычно называют подставками), звёздами, вертушками и кольцами, вторые же — правильными многогранниками или их композициями.

Примеры

Кусудама

Одним из наиболее часто встречающихся объектов является кусудама — объёмное тело шарообразной формы, собранное из бумажных цветов. В древности японцы использовали сложенные из бумаги кусудамы для лечения больных, складывая внутрь лечебные травы и подвешивая кусудаму над постелью больного. Основой кусудамы, как правило, является какой-либо правильный многогранник (чаще всего куб, додекаэдр или икосаэдр). Несколько реже (в силу большей сложности и трудоёмкости изготовления) за основу берётся полуправильный многогранник. Составные части кусудамы обычно встраиваются друг в друга, но иногда также склеиваются или даже просто сшиваются вместе ниткой. Сейчас кусудамой иногда называют любой объект модульного оригами шарообразной формы.

Модуль Сонобе

Мицунобу Сонобе разработал систему модульного оригами, позволяющую сконструировать практически любую трёхмерную фигуру. Её основой служит модуль Сонобе (или его разновидности) — параллелограмм, имеющий два кармана для соединения с другими параллелограммами.

История
Первое упоминание о модульном оригами встречается в японской книге «Ranma Zushiki» Хаято Охоко в 1867 году. Она содержит гравюру, изображающую группу традиционных моделей оригами, одна из которых — модульный куб. Куб показан в двух ракурсах, а в пояснении он описывается как «таматэбако» или «сундук волшебного сокровища».

В книге Исао Хонда «Мир Оригами», опубликованной в 1965 году, по-видимому, изображена та же модель, которую он называет «Кубической коробкой». Шесть требуемых для конструирования модулей были созданы из традиционной японской фигурки, известной как «мэнко». Каждый модуль формирует одну грань собранного куба. Ещё одной традиционной формой модульного оригами является кусудама.

Также ряд моделей модульного оригами существует в китайской традиции бумажного складывания, особенно примечательны лотос, сделанный из «бумаги счастья», а также пагода.

Несмотря на давнюю историю модульного оригами, большинство традиционных фигурок всё же сложены из одного листа бумаги. Возможности, присущие модульному оригами, не развивались вплоть до 1960-х, когда данную технику открыли заново Роберт Нейл в США и, позднее, Мицунобу Сонобе в Японии. С тех пор модульное оригами популяризировалось и широко развивалось и сейчас оно представлено тысячами работ.

I just realized that until the 9th, I get somewhat symmetrical dates! It all falls apart with a bang on the 10th, followed by a timed release of chaser symmetry on the 11th and 22nd– just enough to get me through. Anyways, I'm listening to "Sounds Like Radio," digging on this Grundik & Slava track, which apparently never made the cut to an actual album. I wonder about what happened to it… I've always enjoyed that one, and I know it's on at least one of my "Mystery Tapes," as it put a smile on my face during one of my periodic "quality checks." If you'll allow me a quick digression, I should mention that two more Mystery Tapes have been released during the past 30 days. Keep an eye out for them, my tape distribution agents are widely scattered; occasionally, they do not even know they've been selected for the job!
Well, I'm a chatty thing. Two songs in, and I still haven't got the playlist up. Yikes! Dig the similarities between the John Morton track and the Grundik/Slava cut. So many odd similarities!
I must've had a thing for bells when I selected these tracks. Seems like they're popping up everywhere. Currently, listening to "Walking By the Refinery." Eek, now there's a promo with Somali soldiers. There's a downer for you! Speaking of a downer, I think my vocals need to improve. Anyone have some tips for me? I think the sound is accurate, but they just seem a bit flat to me. Is it the lack of typical radio compression, etc, or something I could improve without too much trickery?
Digging on Glenn Weyant's "Natural Electronics" right now. Sometimes, when I put together a show like this, I get a kick out of watching how low some of the levels are. I don't think that many radio broadcasts explore such a wide range of dynamics, but of course, I have nothing more than my own experiences with radio to go on.

Cadillac's new flagship sedan will come with a new sound system that will leave nothing uncovered inside the cabin.
The Bose Panaray system, designed exclusively for Cadillac's CT6 rear-wheel-drive sedan, marks the debut offering of Bose Automotive's new line of Advanced Technology Series sound systems.
It integrates technologies and design elements from Bose's home entertainment and professional audio products.
There are 34 speakers, with almost all measuring less than 4 inches in diameter, strategically positioned throughout the CT6 cabin.
General Motors CEO Mary Barra, at an event in Detroit last month, highlighted the Bose system as an example of the company and a supplier jointly developing innovative technology.
The Bose system uses articulated arrays -- a series of small speakers set in alternating directions. The setup produces sound at a wider angle, creating a broader and more consistent sound stage for listeners.
The CT6 is the first time the design has been applied in an automotive system with the dual tweeters located in the A-pillars and rear doors of the CT6.
Engineers also integrated line arrays in the center instrument panel and rear-center console. These clusters of small speakers point in the same direction so the sound focuses directly on the listener instead of reflective surfaces.
The sedan's center instrument panel is an important cog in the system. The panel array includes a cluster of three 2-inch speakers that are housed in a motorized center-fill enclosure that rises out of the dashboard when the system is activated.
It is complemented by a 4-inch speaker in each corner of the instrument panel. The rear-center array includes a pair of 2-inch speakers for sound imaging in the back.
The system's bass is also a main focus in the CT6.
Even at the highest volume settings, the system's bass performance is without distortion, rattle or unwanted vibration inside the cabin, according to Bose. This is accomplished by using several compact high-excursion woofers -- the same kind found in Bose home entertainment systems – and combining them with a new bass box design that produces the low-note output of a much larger enclosure.
Additionally, there are two Bose PowerProfile low-frequency enclosures. Designed exclusively for the CT6, they are built into the floor under the driver and front passenger seats. These enclosures measure 3.5 inches high and contain four 2.75-inch speakers mounted side by side and back to back to maximize the distribution of low frequencies without shaking and buzzing.
Finally, the system bass sources include 4-inch speakers in each front and rear door -- housed in ported enclosures -- and an upgraded 10-inch high-power Nd woofer mounted on the CT6 rear shelf between a pair of 2.5-inch rear-fill speakers.
The system is driven by a new amplifier platform with nearly twice the processing power of previous Bose offerings, the company said.
The system enables greater detail when reproducing music from nearly any source, brings the listener closer to a "front-row concert" feel and delivers a balanced, 360-degree sound for each passenger position in the CT6, while compensating for off-center seating.
The CT6 will be available with three levels of Bose sound, with the Panaray system available in the higher-tier packages.
A 10-speaker Bose Centerpoint surround-sound system and an eight-speaker Bose system is also available.
Option packages and pricing will be available from Cadillac closer to the CT6's launch.
The CT6 will be officially unveiled at the New York auto show next week.

Omega Speedmaster "Silver Snoopy Award" 50th anniversary
Omega Speedmaster "Silver Snoopy Award"
An incredible Snoopy tribute
La Cote des Montres - October 5th, 2020
In 1970, Omega received the coveted "Silver Snoopy Award" from the astronauts at NASA, recognising the brand's unique contributions to space exploration, as well as the Speedmaster's vital support during the rescue of Apollo 13.
Exactly 50 years later, a special timepiece has been created in the occasion's honour. Combining animation with watchmaking art, this incredible Snoopy tribute has taken the Omega Speedmaster to new realms of design.
Our favourite beagle plays a prominent role within the timepiece, first appearing as an embossed silver medallion on the blue subdial at 9 o'clock. Here, he is shown wearing his famous spacesuit, in the exact style of the silver pin that NASA astronauts give to award recipients.
The dial itself is also silver and laser-engraved with Ag925. It includes two more blue subdials, as well as blue PVD angle-shaped hour markers and hands.
On the caseback, the fun really begins! This time, Snoopy has gone into orbit, thanks to his animated black and white Command and Service Module (CSM) on a magical hand. When the chronograph seconds hand is in use, Snoopy takes a trip around the mysterious far side of the moon – just like the Apollo 13 crew – with the lunar surface being decorated on the sapphire crystal using a unique micro-structured metallisation.
In the distance, a vision of our home is included. This Earth disc rotates once per minute, in sync with the watch's small seconds hand, and symbolises the precise rotation of the Earth. The iconic quote, "Eyes on the Stars", is included within the black universe.
The NAIAD LOCK keeps all caseback engravings in the correct, upright position, including the date in 1970 that OMEGA received the Silver Snoopy Award, as well as a tribute to the imperilled Apollo 13 mission that same year.
Showing Omega's superb attention to detail, the watch's blue nylon fabric strap matches the other blue elements of the watch, and even features the trajectory of the Apollo 13 mission, embossed on the lining. This strap is attached to a 42 mm case in stainless steel, which is inspired by the 4th generation Speedmaster style (the first watch worn on the moon in 1969). The tachymeter scale, with the iconic "Dot over Ninety", is shown in white enamel on a blue ceramic [ZrO2] bezel ring.
In a superb display of watchmaking skill, the Speedmaster "Silver Snoopy Award" 50th Anniversary watch is driven by the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861. This ground-breaking movement has taken the legendary Moonwatch calibre to new standards of excellence, with anti-magnetic innovation, as well as Master Chronometer certification from the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS).
The timepiece comes with Omega's full 5-year warranty, and will not be a limited production. Eager fans will receive the watch in its own Apollo 13 presentation box, with a microfiber cleaning cloth, a brochure, and a magnifying glass to help you get up close to the details.
"Silver Snoopy Award"
This 50th anniversary timepiece pays tribute to the "Silver Snoopy Award" that Omega received from NASA astronauts in 1970, in recognition of the brand's contributions to space exploration, including the Apollo 13 mission.

Memories from the Astronauts
Omega, Snoopy
et Apollo 13
On the 50th anniversary of Apollo 13 and OMEGA's "Silver Snoopy Award", we spoke with two of the astronauts who remember those moments best. Captain James Lovell, Commander of Apollo 13; and Lieutenant General Thomas Stafford, who flew on four NASA missions and presented Omega with its prestigious prize in 1970.
This year marks 50 years since the safe return of Apollo 13. What emotions or memories has the milestone brought back?
James Lovell: Over the years, I've kept on thinking about Apollo 13 as a great example of teamwork, particularly between Mission Control and the flight crew. I can still remember the sudden explosion on board, and that feeling of successfully landing in the ocean.
Thomas Stafford: I remember presenting the Snoopy award to Dr. Widmer from Omega at a little ceremony in my office. I thanked him and Omega watches for the wonderful service they'd given us throughout the space programme, but particularly on Apollo 13, because the Speedmaster was so critical in helping us get safely back to the Earth.
How important was the Omega Speedmaster to the Apollo 13 mission?
James Lovell: When the spacecraft clocks stopped, that's when we required the Speedmaster. Without our normal navigation equipment, we had to view the Earth and use it as a guideline. Then we had to burn the engine for 14 seconds and turn it off, so we used the watch that Jack Swigert wore.
Thomas Stafford: The Speedmaster meant mission failure or success, because we didn't have electrical power to turn on timers or computers. So all we had was just the watch. For so many seconds, they would thrust on that descent engine. It was OMEGA that got them back, and for that it was decided that they should receive a Silver Snoopy Award.
What are your memories of Snoopy at NASA? Was he a favourite mascot amongst the astronauts?
James Lovell: Snoopy was real a cartoon favorite who kept showing up in the comic strips wearing a spacesuit. I think the astronauts adopted him because he just did everything right.
Thomas Stafford: Charles Schulz had a great understanding of human nature, and so everybody just loved Snoopy. He was always doing something. And Charlie Brown was always doing something. Snoopy just looked so loveable.
What did the "Silver Snoopy Award" come to represent, and how special is it?
James Lovell: The astronauts adopted the award as a way to really recognise the events and actions that worked well.
Thomas Stafford: If somebody really did something outstanding, really helped in the safety of the overall mission, they would possibly be awarded a little Silver Snoopy pin. They weren't handed out very often. It was a rare thing. So if you had a Silver Snoopy, it meant that you had done something really outstanding to help the programme. Usually an astronaut awards it, because it's their life that's on the line.
Looking back, how important has Omega's contribution to the space programme been?
James Lovell: Quite simply, Omega was an essential part to a successful mission.
Thomas Stafford: Omega was just an integral part of our total effort in space. When you're in space, your baseline is time. Everything is based on time. We loved the professional Speedmaster. It worked good. Never failed. It was always just there ready to go.
The special connection between Snoopy and NASA first started in the 1960s, when Charles M. Schulz began creating comic strips depicting the lovable dog on the moon. Those animations captured public excitement about America's adventures into space, and established Snoopy as a symbol of exploration.
In 1968, when NASA went in search of a ""face" for its safety programme, Snoopy was the obvious choice. Not only would he act as a safety "watchdog", but he represented total mission success, while also keeping things light in serious situations.
In fact, Snoopy became so beloved by NASA's own astronauts, that they created a very prestigious prize in his name. Designed by Charles M. Schulz, the Silver Snoopy Award depicts the beagle in a spacesuit and wearing his famous Flying Ace scarf.
The award is presented by the astronauts themselves, and is given to people or companies who they believe have contributed significantly to "the success of human space flight missions." To be personally recognised by the flight crews in such a way is considered to be a highly esteemed honour within the industry. Since 1968, it has been given to no more than 1% of eligible recipients, proving just how rare and special it is.
So how did Omega come to receive such an illustrious honour in 1970?
The Swiss watchmaker had been an invaluable support to NASA ever since the Omega Speedmaster was declared, "flight qualified for all manned space missions" in 1965. The chronograph was subsequently trusted by all the astronauts throughout some of their most important hours, and even became the first watch worn on the moon in 1969.
But it was the Apollo 13 mission, in 1970, which best represents Omega's critical precision, and the "safety" that Snoopy was entrusted with.
When an oxygen tank exploded on board, just two days after launch, the crew was quickly moved into the Lunar Module. This craft, however, was not built to support so many people for such a long time. Therefore, to conserve energy, the astronauts shut down nearly all power – rendering their digital timers obsolete.
Apollo 13 faced many serious challenges over the next several days, as NASA worked around the clock to overcome the increasingly volatile situation. It was at the final stages, however, when Omega's mechanical excellence was called for. Because the mission had drifted off its intended course, it meant that the module would re-enter Earth's atmosphere at the wrong angle, and bounce back into space with no chance of recovery. Therefore, to manually readjust the course of the craft, an exact 14-second burn of the engine was required.
There was simply no room for error. Without their digital timers, the crew led by Commander James Lovell, instead used their Omega Speedmaster chronographs to time the burn. To huge relief, the manoevre worked perfectly, and finally, on April 17th, Apollo 13 splashed safely back to Earth.
In recognition of its overall contributions, including that remarkable mission, Omega received its Silver Snoopy Award on Monday, October 5th, 1970. The unique 925 sterling silver pin was presented by the astronaut Thomas P. Stafford, Commander of Apollo 10, together with a Manned Flight Awareness certificate signed by the crew of Apollo 13, including James Lovell, Jack Swigert and Fred Haise.
From that moment, the Snoopy and Omega stories were forever entwined, and the two have forever shared a special journey through the years – and the stars.

Pune is known for "Gulaabi Thandi" aka "Rosy Winter". The winter period is one such season where every skin type has dry skin issues. It is important to moisturize the skin and use the right products. We often see the dry lips issue is prominent in all age groups, few of us go for homemade ingredients like Milk Cream or Ghee, chemically laden lip balms which ultimately make the lip area black or pigmented, some of them invest in a good organic/natural lip balm with SPF.
Satliva curates super useful products. Unlike other brands in the market which are filled with 100's of varieties and few of them are effective. Satliva has all efficient products.
I have had a great experience with Satliva Orange Lip Balm and will review it today as it worked for me in every season(Monsoon, Summer, and Winters).
Raspberry variant was on my list but it was out of stock and had fewer hopes with this one but it is the best in terms of fragrance, not at all overpowering. Fresh and light citrus fragrance.
Comment below if you have any favorites from Satliva. Purchase this lip balm from the website.

Producer: George Butler. Reissue producer: Bob Belden. Recorded live at The Lighthouse, Hermosa Beach, California on April 21, 1972. Includes liner notes by Bob Belden and Hank Stewart. Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by Ron McMaster. Of all of Grant Green's late-period performances, LIVE AT THE LIGHTHOUSE was arguably the most magical. By 1972 Green was deep into his final funky period of performing extended James Brown-inflected pop material. Here, at the most famous of West Coast jazz venues, the music exploded off the stage for an appreciative audience. Backed by a large group that included Wilton Felder on electric bass, the burning saxophonist Claude Bartee, and female percussionist Bobbye Hall, Green was on fire, ripping out one blistering solo after another. In his opening remarks, emcee Hank Stewart announces that they are there to "create love through the medium of music." This is a prophetic statement, as Green was clearly a master of expression through his instrument. Though he was often criticized for performing less-than-traditional material, Grant Green transcended style, producing highly musical performances out of works like the pop song "Betcha By Golly Wow." Also included are Donald Byrd's flowing "Fancy Free" and the fiery epic "Jan Jan." Next to being there on that magical occasion, this disc fully realizes for the listener Green performing at his best, even at a time when it seemed his best glory was behind him.

He first performed in a professional setting at the age of 13. His early influences were Charlie Christian and Charlie Parker; however, he played extensive R & B gigs in his home town and in East Saint Louis, IL while developing his jazz chops. His first recordings in St. Louis were with tenor saxophonist Jimmy Forrest for the Delmark label. Lou Donaldson discovered green playing in a bar in St. Louis. After touring together with Donaldson, Green arrived in New York around 1959-60. In a Down Beat interview from the early 60's, Green said "The first thing I learned to play was boogie-woogie. Then I had to do a lot of rock and roll. It's all blues, anyhow." Lou Donaldson introduced Green to Alfred Lion of Blue Note Records. Lion was so impressed that, rather than testing Green as a sideman, as was the usual Blue Note practice, he arranged for him to record as a bandleader first. This recording relationship was to last, with a few exceptions, throughout the 'sixties. From 1961 to 1965 Green made more Blue Note LPs as leader and sideman than anyone else. Green was named best new star in the Down Beat critics' poll, 1962. As a result, his influence spread wider than New York. Green's first session as a leader did not meet the approval of Lion and was shelved, not to be released until 2002 as First Session. Green's first issued album as a leader was Grant's First Stand. This was followed in the same year by two more Blue Note releases: Green Street and Grantstand. He often provided support to many of other great musicians on Blue Note.
