In less than a year, America goes to the polls.
But given the leading contenders for the presidency – Trump, Warren, Biden, Sanders and Buttigieg – offer starkly different visions for the economy, the 3 November 2020 US election arguably holds greater importance than other elections in the past.
It will be a major focal point for financial markets in the year ahead, impacting through multiple channels – monetary and fiscal policy expectations, trade policy, dollar policy, sentiment channels and regulatory changes in specific industries.
In fact, if the last few years were dominated by trade war headlines and volatility, 2020 will likely be just as marked by the race for the White House.
It's widely assumed that a Republican presidency is typically more positive for asset prices than a Democratic presidency.
The DXY index, which tracks the US dollar, for instance has generally been stronger in the lead up to an election when the Republican presidential candidate led the polls, as seen with Bush in 2004 and 2000, Bush senior in 1988 and Reagan in 1984. In contrast, it's been relatively weaker when the Democratic candidate is leading, for example for Clinton in 2016, Obama in 2012 and 2008, and Clinton in 1992 and 1996.
But most of the field are not traditional mainstream politicians and how markets might react must also consider candidates' views, such as trade policy.
And as we detailed in a recent report, the main candidates' differ on several key policy stances.
As for Trump, while he's yet to formally outline a second term agenda more of the same seems very likely, including tax cuts 2.0, deregulation, infrastructure and an aggressive approach to global trade. Presiding over a strong economy and encouraging companies to set up shop in the US will be central to Trump's 2020 message.
A second term Trump will sustain pressure on the Fed to ease rates and unlikely renominate chairman Jerome Powell when his term expires in February 2022.
As for the Democrats, former Vice President and Delaware Senator Joe Biden is widely considered the front-runner. A centrist Democrat, Biden's tax proposals do not include a tax on wealth or financial transactions, with his signature policies being a $US1.3 trillion 10-year infrastructure plan and a $US1.7 trillion Green New Deal to tackle climate change. He also opposes Medicare for All, a key difference with rival Democrat candidates Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, preferring to expand Obamacare at a cost of $US750bn.

Biden plans to fund these initiatives by raising $US3.2 trillion in revenue over a decade, modest compared to the plans of Warren and Sanders ($US20-plus trillion in 10 years in new taxes). It would include unwinding most of Trump's tax cuts, raising personal income tax brackets on all income groups except the lowest brackets and lifting Trump's 21 per cent corporate tax rate to 28 per cent (it stood at 35 per cent before the Republican tax cuts).
Biden draws support from the "blue collar" manufacturing heartland but he is not known as a China hawk and has criticised Trump's tariffs, arguing they hurt US consumers and workers more.
The signature policy for Vermont senator Sanders is Medicare for All, a "single-payer, national health insurance program to provide everyone in America with comprehensive health care coverage, free at the point of service." He plans "an annual tax on the extreme wealth of the top 0.1 percent of U.S. households", with a progressive tax rising from 1 per cent for a married couple with a net worth of $32 million, to 8 per cent per annum on wealth over $US10 billion. He's pledged to use tariffs as a tool of trade policy albeit in a more rational manner than Trump.
Both Sanders and rival Democrat Massachusetts senator Warren shares Trump's circumspect views on globalisation.
But Warren's "economic patriotism" goes beyond Trump, stipulating preconditions trading partners must meet if they want to trade with the US, for example upholding labour standards, protecting human rights and meeting environmental requirements.

Warren has also called for actively managing the US dollar and an ultra-Millionaire Tax would apply to households with a net worth of $US50 million or more.
Warren and Sanders' taxation, social welfare and regulation policies are the most far reaching and disruptive for growth among the candidates and thus likely the most impactful for markets. Warren's agenda also includes plans for manufacturing and Wall Street, plus proposals to break up giant tech companies e.g. reversing mergers & acquisitions including Facebook's acquisition of WhatsApp and Instagram.
In contrast, a Michael Bloomberg, Joe Biden or Pete Buttigieg presidency would represent a return to centrist policy making, more modest spending and taxation measures and a much less combative approach to international trade. As such, if any of these three democrats won presidency it would be relatively benign for asset markets and the US dollar firmer compared to Warren or Sanders.
Despite wildcards under a second term Trump government, particularly his stance on the US dollar, more of the same is unlikely to rattle markets as much as change, particularly a surprise one.
But with asset prices high and three-odd years of Trump to go on, an election race without the odd surprise would be a brave bet to make.

Petrol Ofisi A.Ş. é uma empresa petrolífera de distribuição de produtos de combustível e lubrificantes da Turquia. Originalmente uma empresa estatal, foi privatizada em 2000 pelo governo da Turquia e desde 2017 passou a ser propriedade da Vitol Group, conglomerado holandês do mercado de petróleo e hidrocarbonetos.

A empresa detinha mais de 1700 postos de combustível em 2020 na Turquia.

Histórico

Foi oficialmente fundada em 18 de fevereiro de 1941 como uma empresa estatal de propriedade do governo da Turquia para importar, estocar, refinar e distribuir produtos petrolíferos no país. Tornou-se uma sociedade anônima em 1983.

Em 24 de julho de 2000, a empresa foi privatizada e, inicialmente, 51% das ações foram adquiridas pela Doğan Holding. Em 13 de março de 2006, no entanto, a petroleira austríaca OMV comprou 34% da participação por US$ 1.054 bilhão. Após esta bolsa de valores, a participação do Grupo Doğan diminuiu de 86,7% para 52,7%.

Em 22 de outubro de 2010, a OMV anunciou que compraria 54,17% das ações da Doğan Holding pelo valor de € 1 bilhão, fixando sua participação total na empresa em 95,75%. A transação permaneceu sujeita à aprovação das autoridades relevantes até 22 de dezembro desse mesmo ano, quando foi concluída.

I came today to Santiago from Santo Domingo. by Carribe Tours.
Santiago seems to be more organised and more developed than Dominican Republic's capital.... Traffic is not as bad as in Santo Domingo, and the city itself is located a little higher than Santo Domingo, so in theory it should be a little colder here. Like I wrote - in theory, since I'm sweating also here.
This country reminds me so much of Indonesia and Morocco - despite the fact that religion over there is different. Same level of poverty and country's development, similary crazy people...Big difference between here and Indonesia ? Here almost nobody smokes....My hotel room in Santiago...Will I sleep today ? Thank god that i brought with me my earplugs - you cant live without them in this country...There is so much noise outside...and it all goes through my window in hotel room...So noisy like there would be a war or street protests outside..while in reality it's just normal day here.

Appointment of New RAMSI Special Coordinator Welcomed
Friday, 25 February 2011 09:09 AM
The Foreign Minister of Solomon Islands, the Hon. Peter Shanel, the Secretary General of the Pacific Islands Forum Secretariat, Tuiloma Neroni Slade and the RAMSI Special Coordinator Graeme Wilson, today welcomed the appointment of Mr Nicholas Coppel as the next Special Coordinator of RAMSI.
Mr Coppel will replace Mr Wilson following a brief hand-over period at the end of March. Mr Wilson has been Special Coordinator since January 2009 and will depart Solomon Islands in early April 2011.
Hon. Shanel said the Solomon Islands Government (SIG) was looking forward to continuing its close cooperation with RAMSI under the leadership of Mr Coppel, particularly as planning begins for RAMSI's transition.
"It is just as important now as it was when the mission first came to Solomon Islands, that RAMSI and the Government work closely together to meet the challenges that face this nation."
He said it was pleasing to note that Mr Coppel already had strong experience in the Pacific region, most recently as Assistant Secretary, Pacific Regional and New Zealand Branch in the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), Australia.
Secretary-General of the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) Mr Slade, noting the PIFís continuing oversight role in relation to RAMSI, said Mr Coppel would have an important leadership role to play in coordinating the work of the mission, in which all members of the Forum play an active part.
Secretary-General Slade welcomed the close and collaborative relationship between the PIF, the SIG and RAMSI, and noted the strong ongoing support of all PIF members for the mission.
Outgoing Special Coordinator, Graeme Wilson, said he was proud of what RAMSI and Solomon Islands continued to achieve in partnership.
"As RAMSI plans its transition, I believe Solomon Islanders can have confidence in the solid foundation we have laid down together for the country's recovery and this nation's future," Mr Wilson said.
Mr Wilson said Mr Coppel's broad experience and diverse skills would be put to good use in leading RAMSI.
"Working with Solomon Islanders and leading a group of dedicated men and women from Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific is challenging, rewarding and a great privilege," Mr Wilson said.
The appointment of Mr Coppel, who was nominated by the Australian Government in accordance with the RAMSI Treaty, was confirmed following consultation with the Solomon Islands Government and the Pacific Islands Forum. Prior to undertaking the role of Assistant Secretary, Pacific Regional and New Zealand Branch in the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), Australia, Mr Coppel held a number of positions in Canberra and overseas including as Deputy High Commissioner to Port Moresby. Between 2006 and 2008, Mr Coppel was seconded to the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet where he ran the branch responsible for the Pacific, Africa, Europe, the Middle East and the United Nations.
Mr Coppel said he was looking forward to working with Solomon Islanders and the region to build on the progress made through the RAMSI-Solomon Islands partnership over the last seven and a half years.
"I particularly look forward to maintaining the close working relationship that has been established between RAMSI, the Solomon Islands Government and the Pacific Islands Forum with the aim of continuing to build a peaceful, well governed and more prosperous Solomon Islands."

The incredible world of Fallout 4 must be revealed step by step, quest by quest, item by item, otherwise, it loses its charm. The following Fallout 4 walkthrough is not made to give you everything you need to know about the game. Instead, we propose a general idea of what each quest line will imply and how the decisions that you make throughout the game will impact progression.
Bethesda Game Studios didn't fail its fans by releasing the fifth installment of their flagship game, Fallout. You can have your own copy of this productions on your favorite platform, such as PC, PlayStation 4 or Xbox One.
Out of Time. This quest will have the player exit the Vault. After that, you'll be headed home where you should find Codsworth. Upon talking to the little robot, you find out just how long you've been asleep. After searching the neighborhood, the quest ends with you going off to investigate Concord.
When Freedom Calls. Upon reaching Concord, the player comes upon the sight of the Museum of Freedom. Once inside, there are a few trapped settlers under the supervision of Preston Garvey. After battling some raiders, you get a fusion core which you'll use on your new power armor. With this armor, go and clear out hostiles in Concord, then report back to Preston.
Sanctuary. Building Sanctuary is a key part of the walkthrough for Fallout 4. The settlers will need somewhere to stay, so it's best to build them a nice shelter. Talk to Sturges in order to secure water, food, and a basic defense system.
Jewel of the Commonwealth. The capital of the Commonwealth, Diamond City, lies before you. Remember to keep your power armor off. When you get to Diamond city, you have to find info about Shaun, your son.
Unlikely Valentine. Now you have to find Nick Valentine, one of your future companions. You find him trapped, so you have to free him. After escaping, you get to talk to Nick back in Diamond City. Valentine is one of the most important characters in the Fallout 4 walkthrough. As a result, try to keep him satisfied with your decisions.
Getting a Clue.Go back to Nick and talk to Ellie for the reward. Next, you'll have to explain your story to Valentine. After that's done, go with him to Kellogg's house. At the end of this small quest, Valentine will join your companion list.
Reunions. After following Dogmeat, you get to Fort Hagen where you'll have to search for ammo and for the Fat Man weapon. Next, you have to either talk to and then kill, or simply kill Kellogg. After that's done, discuss what you find with Nick and then with Piper. The latter will become your fifth companion.
Dangerous Minds. Accompany Nick to see Doctor Amari. The latter will put you in a memory pod, allowing for you to explore Kellogg's memories. At this stage of your Fallout 4 walkthrough, you'll have to wander in a dream-like environment to talk to all the people that you encounter. After you've found sufficient evidence, talk to Amari again to unlock the next quest.
The Glowing Sea.This quest can be either really hard or really easy. If you go with one of the Fallout 4 beginner tips, you can waste a fusion core and use the Power Armor. This should be simple enough. If you would rather not use up a core, go at it with extreme caution. You can use VANS to guide yourself, but not too much. You will find Virgil in a Rocky Cave that leads to his laboratory. Talk to him to start the next quest.
Hunter/Hunted.After traveling to the C.I.T. ruins (leave your power armor and use fast travel). Next, you need to use your radio to track Courser. After you find him, attack and kill him, after which retrieve his chip.
The First Step. This quest should already be unlocked. It will lead the player to join the Minutemen.
The Road to Freedom. This quest should've been unlocked by a passerby in Diamond City. It will lead players to the Railroad.
At the Molecular Level. This will have you return to Virgil who will task you with building a Signal Interceptor. Get help from either the Minutemen, Railroad, or Brotherhood of Steel for this. Talk to Sturges repeatedly in order to build it.
Institutionalized. This quest will have you make the final choice between the Minutemen, the Railroad, the Brotherhood of Steel, and the Institute. Make sure that you save the game before you make the decision. You will need that save if you ever want to try another faction. This is the final quest in the "On Your Own" part of the Fallout 4 walkthrough.
This concludes the first part of the walkthrough. Scroll through the next pages to see how each separate choice will influence the game! Don't forget to check out our comprehensive Fallout 4 guide if you feel that you got stuck at some point during the game. As always, we'd love to hear your comments on this apocalyptic masterpiece. What's your favorite part of Fallout 4?

Haal Too Well
Hi, Just Some Jake Gyllenhaal Late-Night Show Clips For No Reason At All
Definitely not because I'm feeling emotionally crushed by the new "All Too Well" lyrics.
by Hannah Orenstein
Jason Kempin/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images
*Removes AirPods* Sorry, what did you say? I couldn't hear you, I was listening to Red (Taylor's Version). Oh, you said you recently developed a curiosity about Jake Gyllenhaal's oeuvre of late-night appearances? Hmm! That's so funny — I was actually just thinking the same thing.
You know, now that you mention it, Gyllenhaal is widely rumored to be the source of inspiration behind Taylor Swift's iconic 2012 ballad "All Too Well." They reportedly dated from October to December 2010. Gyllenhaal never publicly addressed the song, and although Swift never confirmed who she was writing about, she did serve up plenty more heartbreaking details in her new 10-minute recording that dropped on Nov. 12.
For example, one lyric calls out her unnamed ex for putting on an act around her family: "You who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes/Sipping coffee like you're on a late-night show." (Great song, 10/10, I can't wait to scream-sing this at karaoke after my next breakup.)
Anyway, I rounded up a few clips of Gyllenhaal on a variety of late-night shows. Since we happen to share the same weirdly specific interest, I did us both a favor and took notes based on some totally random criteria. Are you ready for it?
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon: Sept. 28, 2021
Sadly, Gyllenhaal's dog Atticus wasn't feeling all too well recently. As the actor told Fallon, the German Shepherd's prostate issues led him to be neutered this year at the age of 7. Following the suggestion of a veterinarian, Gyllenhaal bought the pup "neuticles" — prosthetic testicles that let a dog "retain its natural look and self-esteem," per the company's website.
The procedure was apparently a success. "He's great. He's fine. He's healthy. He's happy. He has no recollection whatsoever," Gyllenhaal told Fallon.
Coffee? Yes.
Self-effacing jokes? Yes. He starred in the 2017 Broadway musical Sunday in the Park with George, and geeked out about how cool it was to be on Spotify. But his lengthy last name doesn't fit neatly on the app's display, so he suggested he should simply be cut from the credits.
My emotional state after watching this? Reminiscing about that one time in college when I saw Gyllenhaal walking Atticus outside NYU's journalism building. Now, years later, upon learning he opted to give the dog "gorilla-sized" neuticles, my cheeks are turning red, kind of like a little kid with glasses in a twin-sized bed.
Conan: Sept. 21, 2017
This memorable entry into the canon of Jake Gyllenhaal Late-Night Show Appearances showcases the actor poking fun at himself for everything from his emo phase to his lack of computer skills (he claimed he doesn't know how to copy and paste, though that feature became popular in 1983, when he was just 2 years old).
Coffee? No.
Self-effacing jokes? When Conan O'Brien asked Gyllenhaal if Holeshot, his high school boy band (yes, really), was any good, he simply cleared his throat and looked away with flawless comedic timing.
My emotional state after watching this? I might be OK, but I'm not fine at all. This led me down a research rabbit hole, googling Holeshot and wondering if it ever produced any cool indie records.
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert: Sept. 15, 2015
Amy Schumer and her sister Kim Caramele once rented out Gyllenhaal's apartment. After a few drinks, she discovered a birthday cake in the actor's freezer and filmed herself eating it. She showed off the video on Colbert, and days later, Gyllenhaal addressed the incident on the same show.
The late-night host gave the actor the opportunity to make a sassy comeback: dramatically biting into a cake of his own. Like revenge, birthday cake is a dish best served cold.
Coffee? Yep.
Self-effacing jokes? He could barely keep a straight face while saying, "People don't know this — everyone in Hollywood just lives in the same house. That's why we're all so nice to each other. That's why we love each other so much." Sure!
My emotional state after watching this? Hungry. I want a big slice of birthday cake, and when I'm done eating, I'd wash it down with a nice maple latte.
Late Night with Seth Meyers: July 23, 2015
After chatting with Meyers in front of the studio audience, Gyllenhaal "forgot his phone" on set. Meyers walked into Gyllenhaal's dressing room to return it, only to discover the actor is totally bald under a luscious toupée.
Self-effacing jokes? He barely utters a peep in this clip, but donning a bald cap for the sake of laughs definitely counts.
My emotional state after watching this? I hope he can find peace with himself, no matter what state his follicles are in, but I worry he might miss the feeling of wind in his hair.
The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon: Oct. 30, 2014
Gyllenhaal stopped by The Tonight Show to talk about his sister Maggie Gyllenhaal's incredible Broadway debut, The Real Thing. Supportive!
Self-effacing jokes? He claimed his sister can smell him from all the way across a theater.
My emotional state after watching this? Concerned about Jake's possible lack of deodorant, thrilled for Maggie's success, but mostly deeply interested in her collection of winter accessories.
Anyway! It's been so lovely to bond with you over our mutual interests and hobbies. I apologize if any of my comments came across as casually cruel — I was just being honest. I'm gonna run, I need to finish listening to this album. Bye!

This process led to Scott's interest in residential construction, and by 1984, he incorporated as a General Contractor. This was the beginning of a highly respectable career in building upscale custom homes and remodels from the west end of Los Angeles to the northern-most tip of Malibu.
Scott's dedication to his work and clients stems from his ability to enjoy life and all that nature has to offer. Spending his down-time kite surfing and photographing everything he sees, Scott has learned to balance work and play, cultivating relationships with locals, business associates, and friends.

Whether it's cross country or on the track, there is only one place you will find redshirt junior Josh Maier, and that is near the front leading the competition.
Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Maier has four major hobbies: running, playing baseball, playing video games and watching sports.
Maier, a fan of all non-Cubs Chicago sports teams, did not have it easy when it came to succeeding in the athletic department at Alan B. Shepard High School, a 3A school in Palos Heights, Illinois.
Maier utilized his passion for baseball to find quick success in the sport as his freshman year he was the starting third basemen for his team.
Although it's his master craft now, Maier had no knowledge of what cross country was, until being invited to a tryout by cross country coach Troy Walker during his biology class.
Maier found his other calling going into his sophomore year of high school where he picked up track. The future track star found his success in long distance running, becoming a two-time South Suburban Red Conference individual champion, an experience he said really helped his development on the course.
Although Maier showed major promise in all three of his sports, the runner took cross country and track more serious and chose to dedicate his future to the two sports.
Maier credits his passion for the sport to Walker.
When it came to choosing a college, the future computer science major visited SIU along with Grand Valley State, Purdue and Marquette.
He claims that the transition into collegiate running is not an easy task as the workouts are more strenuous and at a different pace.
Maier hit the ground running his freshman year in track setting several personal records in both indoor and outdoor running while placing fourth at the Bill Cornell Spring Classic in the 5000-meter, setting another personal record.
During his first year of cross country, the computer science major notched two top ten performances, using his first year as a springboard to future success.
The next season, Maier led the Salukis in all six meets while opening the season with back-to-back wins and being named All-MVC honorable mention.
Later that year, his junior year of track, Maier continued to succeed as he went on to earn the MVC Elite 18 award for track and field, went All-MVC in the 10,000-meter run and was MVC champion in the 5,000-meter run, SIU's first title in the event since 2011.
Although majoring in computer science, Maier does not have a clear-cut goal on what he will do with his major as he will graduate in May of 2018, however, he does plan to attend graduate school to utilize his fourth year of cross country.
"As far as running post-collegiately goes, I would definitely like to run a Chicago Marathon," Maier said.
Even though his time in an SIU uniform is beginning to run out, his legacy will still be left on the Saluki squad.

Ehrlichiosis is the general name used to describe diseases caused by the bacteria Ehrlichia chaffeensis, E. ewingii, or E. muris eauclairensis in the United States. The majority of reported cases are due to infection with E. chaffeensis.
Most people get ehrlichiosis from the bite of an infected tick.
In the United States, E. chaffeensis and E. ewingii are carried by the lone star tick (A. americanum) Cdc-pdf[PDF – 2 pages], found primarily in the south-central and eastern United States.
E. muris eauclairensis is carried by the blacklegged tick (I. scapularis) Cdc-pdf[PDF – 1 page]. While the blacklegged tick is widely distributed in the eastern United States, E. muris eauclairensis has only been found in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
In rare cases, Ehrlichia species have been spread through blood transfusion and organ transplant.
Ehrlichiosis caused by E. chaffeensis and E. ewingii is most frequently reported from the southeastern and south-central United States, from the East Coast extending westward to Texas.

The choice of a career is among the most important decisions of our life….or so it should be. For most however, this choice is still made based on their instincts, and the word of others. And that's where we come in! We at Tucareers.com are passionate about helping the career decision maker reach the right decision and make an informed choice. Using the latest research in the career decision theories, psychometric assessments, analytics and data from the world's largest career database, we bring a unique phased global career decision framework (ONETCPTM) to facilitate your search for the right career, education and skills set.
Our assessments are based on established and validated psychometric scales and cover a diverse set of traits. And with a cloud based platform powered by advanced analytics, we provide accurate career recommendations, which don't just present you with a direction but also predict your long term career growth, tenure and satisfaction. With individuals increasingly taking responsibility of their career graphs the need for our solution is urgent and is required across an individual's lifetime.
Additionally, in this highly networked and globalized world, with careers becoming global and boundaryless, career standards are also fast evolving. A missing link across most countries however, is lack of data on individual attributes. The O*NET program in USA provides a well-researched career taxonomy and data on several of these critical attributes, collected over several years from practitioners and experts across occupations. Our career assessment framework extends the O*NET framework to increase the decision value that it can provide to individual decision makers in a multicultural context. We also provide cross reference of career standards across countries thereby facilitating accurate career decision making in a global context.
Tucareers.com is founded by Mohit Bhatnagar, who after working extensively in the industry started it owing to lack of credible career decision support in India. Mohit has graduated from IIT Roorkee and has pursued his post graduation from IIM Bangalore. His thesis work as part of his fellowship (doctoral degree in Decision Sciences from IIM Lucknow), is in the area of analytics driven model for the internationalization of O*NET (world's largest open source career database) and is a distinctive contribution. He has presented his work at Indian (PAN IIM, Indian Academy of Management) and international conferences (IAEVG, Spain). Mohit's work, validating O*NET's use in India (and internationally) for career guidance, has been published in the journal from International Association of Education and Vocational Guidance (IAEVG), the nodal body globally in the area of career decision making.

12.02.2017, 09.04.2017, 18.06.2017, 29.10.2017 in Eindhoven, Lucas Gasselstraat 5.
The second year of the foundation clarified a few things about the various tasks of the board: tasks that must be effectively linked to the objective. This has resulted in a concept for the External Relations Committee, for which Tim Van Laere (gallerist) and Rinus van de Velde (artist) from Antwerp have been approached. A second important step in the design of the foundation is to go online with the website huishenkvisch.eu. Now that the policy plan and the website have been completed, the application for the ANBI status for the foundation has also been sent out on 2 November 2017.
External Relations Committee
Setting up an External Relations Committee is of great importance for the foundation to be able to function in the broader context of cultural, international relations. This can be done directly with institutions or organisations that play an important role in the network of the artist Henk Visch. Furthermore, it is essential that the management structure is such that the management of the collection and the external exhibition policy complement each other and do not block eachother. Extensive consultations were held with the notary office Schäfer Eindhoven, where the founding act has been drawn up and signed to guarantee a legally strong and socially well-functioning foundation.
The CEB will be chaired by the chairman of the board and will be assisted by the manager of the collection. The CEB consists of at least 2 external persons who, in consultation with the aforementioned board members, make their proposals and plans known. The fiat of the treasurer is required for the logistical and financial settlement. The CEB will be included in the public register of the Chamber of Commerce, Eindhoven as an extension of the board. CEB member proposal: Tim Van Laere, gallerist, Antwerp and artist Rinus van de Velde, Antwerp.
The website went online 10 October 2017. There will still be tinkered to make all functions run smoothly. The transfer of the works of Henk Visch have already been put online to make it clear to the public that the foundation is a growing, evolving art institution. The formal transfer can only take place after the ANBI status has been granted. We hope for an early settlement.
The cultural ANBI status is essential for the foundation, firstly because it will then be able to realize the intended public collection on the basis of donations. But there is a second point: culture considered and defined as public good, it makes it necessary to place the documentation and description / interpretation of works of art in the perspective of cultural interests. It is clear that cultural heritage can bear that title only if a public collection has been formed, which is first of all withdrawn from the private sphere: ownership or private ownership has its own philosophy, its own argumentation in which the importance of this property has validity. Public art will develop arguments that are part of cultural life and which will only be able to represent a cultural value in the public domain; a value assignment, which in turn will be able to bear the dictum of 'public utility'. With this in mind, the foundation can not function other than under the umbrella of the General Benefit Institution and for that purpose it will have to present the arguments. This is not self-evident, because art increasingly functions socially as private property.
The discussion about this is therefore not over.

Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque® Updated Demo Released
https://youtu.be/WTF75tzRGK4
Since Steam will take a long time to finish reviewing my game, before it can go live there, and since the demo is finished, I don't see a reason for not releasing it, so you all can enjoy this new demo and have a sneak peek of what awaits you on the full game, which is coming, finally, in December 2021.
This demo can be downloaded from itch.io, Game Jolt and IndieDB:
https://nidal-nijm-games.itch.io/fursan-al-aqsa-knights-of-al-aqsa-mosque (access this link using the itch.io desktop app and click on install to install the Windows version)
https://gamejolt.com/games/fursan-al-aqsa-knights-of-al-aqsa-mosque/573682 (the Windows version is a standalone installation)
https://www.indiedb.com/games/fursan-al-aqsa-knights-of-al-aqsa-mosque/downloads (the Windows version is a standalone installation)
IMPORTANT: FOR PS3/XBOX360 YOU MUST SET THE VIDEO RESOLUTION OUTPUT TO 480p 16:9 ON YOUR CONSOLES CONFIGURATIONS MENU (also set on your TV the image aspect ratio to 16:9) OTHERWISE THE GAME WILL CRASH!!!
Please download, play, leave a feedback and wishlist my game, as it helps me too much!
About the Demo:
This brand new and updated demo of Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque® contains 3 Game Modes (Campaign, Challenges and Multiplayer), alongside 6 Maps, so you can all enjoy it and have a sneak peek of what awaits you on the full game, which is coming, finally, in December 2021.
In this demo, for the sake of making things easier for the players, all the missions are opened by default, but on the final game you need to accomplish the previous mission to be able to play the next mission of the Campaign.
The first Campaign mission is basically a tutorial for players to understand the basic game mechanics, specially the Bullet Time, which I, personally love it, as I made it very similar to Max Payne. The second Campaign mission, is where the action begins. Retro shooters, specially Goldeneye 007 fans out there, will find too much similarities to the game, which ARE NOT MERELY COINCIDENTAL
The Challenges mode, I made something very similar to, let's say, Metal Gear Solid VR Missions, on which the player must complete some specific tasks to earn a ranking badge according to his performance. The Challenges mode will keep people entertained playing Fursan al-Aqsa, even after finishing the game's Campaign, because the player will have to conquer all badges, and, something very cool, is that, both the Campaign mode and Challenges mode, will have FULL SUPPORT TO STEAM ACHIEVEMENTS!
About the Multiplayer mode, this is something I am very proud of it, because I think it revives the Golden Era of Split-Screen Multiplayer! Due to technical limitations I won't be able to add Online Multiplayer support for Fursan al-Aqsa, so it will be Offline Multiplayer.
This Multiplayer mode makes more sense for the console version of Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque®, but even the Steam version does support local multiplayer. However, you must have 2 Xbox360 USB Controllers connected to your PC, before starting the game. But ANY USB GAMEPAD will work if you use the Xbox 360 Controller Emulator, which can be downloaded for free from their official website (https://www.x360ce.com/).
By the way, I will release, in December, 9 Campaign Missions, with full Steam Achievements Support, and some Multiplayer Maps.
In the first FREE update for my game, I will release the Challenges Mode, with many missions. I will use the same Campaign Maps with many variations, and some new Maps. Also ALL the Challenges missions will have FULL Steam Achievements support, and by the way, the Challenges missions achievements will be HARD to unlock
In the second FREE update for my game, I will release some new Campaign missions, alongside some new Challenges missions, all of them with FULL Steam Achievements support.
As these new updates will take a lot of time for making, so, after I finish these updates, I will still decide if I make more free updates, or some cheap paid DLC's for my game, with brand new content. I plan to make some new missions, real missions and battles which indeed did happen in Palestine, real missions from the Palestinian Resistance, not fictional missions like these I am making now.
My final words:
After many years of intense work, dedication, too much love, passion and sleepless nights, finally, my journey with Fursan al-Aqsa is coming to it's peak.
It has been indeed a long life journey, which began, here, on this piece of paper, the first sketch I made for a game about Palestinian Resistance there in 2009, the game of my dreams, the game which, since childhood, I dreamed to make, and today, praise be to Allah, it is a reality.
I confess it has been a very hard journey, full of ups and downs, I even thought on giving it up many times, but the palestinian blood in my veins told me that a true fighter never gives up. Also because the underlying message of my game is very important to be said in the Gaming World, that RESISTANCE IS NOT TERRORISM, as this breaks too many cliches, specially the cliche Arabs = Terrorists.
In this long journey I got to know many friends, from this site and many other places, and something I never imagined, is that my history with this game has been an inspiration for many other people, specially because of my other project, UDK Ultimate Engine, the homebrew port I made of Unreal Engine 3 to the 7th generation of Consoles, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
So here my dear friends, since now I am on the final phase of my game's development, I won't be too much active on these forums anymore, but I will still publish some new trailers I make for my game. My focus now will be finish these 9 Campaign missions to release my game now in December, Insha Allah.
Again, I thank you all guys and girls who are supporting me since the beginning of this project, and I thank the forum admins here to allow me to keep promoting my game here. This game now is HUGE thanks to this AMAZING COMMUNITY.
May Allah bless you all.
Assalamu Alaykum - May the peace be with you!

Finally, after almost 10 years working on this game, since 2009, it is finally released on Steam!
I thought it would take more days for my game being approved by Steam Review Team, however, today the wait is over, today is a GREAT day for my life, for my dream of becoming a game developer.
Against all the odds, despite all the controversy around my game, despite anything, finally now my game is officialy on Steam, the biggest platform for digital gaming.
This is indeed a great achievement for my life. No arab muslim game developer before me was able to make a game about the Struggle of Palestinian people against Israeli Oppresion in a global scope like Fursan al-Aqsa, a game, that despite being a small indie game, but it has a very important underlying message.
As many of you know, I am a brazilian muslim, son of a Palestinian Resistance Fighter, and I always wanted to tell the history of my father, and the history of my people, the palestinian people and their resistance against oppression. Through this game I want to show to the whole World that Fighting for Freedom is NOT Terrorism, Fighting for Life is NOT Terrorism, Fighting for Protecting the Homeland is NOT Terrorism, Fighting against the Oppressor and its Savagery, which kills innocent children and civilians, is NOT Terrorism, that Palestinian Resistance is NOT Terrorism!
And today I feel I am close to accomplish this mission.
Again, I ask you all to please wishlist my game on Steam, as this helps me too much.
And if you did not download the demo yet, please, download it now from Steam.

Fursan al-Aqsa® Demo Update - Not Very Hard Mode
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1714420/Fursan_alAqsa_The_Knights_of_the_AlAqsa_Mosque/ (the steam version will auto update)
https://nidal-nijm-games.itch.io/fursan-al-aqsa-knights-of-al-aqsa-mosque (you need to manually click on check game updates using the itch.io app)
The Consoles versions (PS3/XBOX360) and the PC Standalone version were also updated. These can be downloaded from here:
https://www.indiedb.com/games/fursan-al-aqsa-knights-of-al-aqsa-mosque/downloads
After listening to many players feedbacks, I realized that not every player nowadays are hardcore players, that the world itself changed a lot in the last 20 years, and also did the gaming world.
We live in a very different times since the days of Goldeneye 007 for the N64, the biggest inspiration for Fursan al-Aqsa. While people back then could take months to beat the game because they were usually stuck with the game until the next time their parents buy them another game, the mass availability of games of all prices on digital storefronts nowadays means that people can just play a different game if something is too hard. In other words, people will also get bored easily if the game is too hard as well, especially if they have plenty of other games waiting for them.
So for this reason I did balance much better the difficulty of the game now. It is easier, but still challenging without being frustrating. I hope to reach now also the casual players who want to try something different, an action game which anyone can enjoy, not only hardcore players.
Here follows the list of changes, which were also added to full game:
1- I improved the post process effect, increasing the image contrast and brightness a bit, so players can see better important gameplay objects, like the security cameras, healthpacks and other pickups;
2- I added a small delay for the enemy soldiers, so it takes some seconds for them to shoot at the player after they spot him;
3- Now the Health Packs restore 25HP of health instead of 15HP;
4- Now each Headshot gives the player 10HP of health;
5- On each mission the player will have a Body Armor to pickup, and it is placed always close to the player entry point of each mission;
6- I reduced a lot the opacity of the on-screen blood whenever the player is injured, so it does not distract the player anymore;
7- Now to perform the knife kills is a bit easier, but you still need to get close enough to the enemy;
8- I made the security cameras range less unfair to the players, specially that one close to the corridor under stairs;
Now I am sure the game is much more enjoyable, without losing it's challenging aspect, but at the same time without being unfair for the players, neither frustrating.
I hope you enjoy it, Insha Allah.
Assalamu Alaykum - May the peace be with you.
P.S: My game was featured on one of the biggest gaming portals of Japan!!!

Fursan al-Aqsa® - Steam Next Fest and other updates
Hello friends. Some GREAT news here.
#FursanAqsaGame will be on #STEAM #nextFest. I will do a demo walkthrough on live, friday.
On sunday I will challenge you to play against me, an epic online split screen multiplayer match via remote play.
Today, one of the biggest news portal from middle-east, Jerusalem Post, wrote an amazing article about my game:
https://www.jpost.com/arab-israeli-conflict/new-video-game-lets-players-free-palestine-and-fight-israel-680622
This is simply AMAZING! I have a strong feeling that this game will be a big hit on STEAM, as soon as I release it.
New Campaign Mission - Map Showcase
This is a Military Camp established in the Israel-Lebanon border region, known as South Lebanon Security Belt. This camp is used as a warehouse to store and distribute weapons and warfare supplies to IDF Forces acros all the Occupied Lands in Palestine. Your mission is to infiltrate this camp, destroy all their warfare supplies, eliminate all enemies and kidnapp an AV-8B Harrier to escape.

Fursan al-Aqsa is stronger than ever and I made a lot of improvements now in November, in this time I was offline, and I will keep offline, but just for the eye candy I am publishing now some new screenshots to keep your hype.
This is a brand new campaign mission, Camp Shizafon - School for Armored Corps. This Mission will be frenetic, and the player will drive a Merkava Tank to fight against other tanks and helicopters.
This is the real Shizafon Base:

This is my version:
And this is a very cool feature I was working on, and now it is done. I made an external game launcher with a complete settings menu which allows to configure the game and even rebind some keys, something many players asked for it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFnH4nAjeiw
Because intelligence in times of war means attacking your enemies with their own weapons.
This is a driveable Merkava Mark IV Tank the player will use in Mission 7 of Fursan al-Aqsa, the attack at Shizafon Army Corps Base.

Fursan al-Aqsa Teaser Trailer - Light the Fire
This is a teaser trailer for a brand new mission I just finished for Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque® Campaign.
Fursan al-Aqsa meets Mortal Kombat
Ahmad al-Falastini Wins, Flawless Victory, Double Fatality!
Toasty!!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfxY6DSRHYQ
This is a teaser trailer for a brand new mission I just finished for Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque® Campaign. This map is based on Shizafon Armored Corps Base, an Israeli Training Base located in the middle of the Negev Desert, in Southern Palestine Region. This base is mainly used as a Training Field for Vehicles Operations, which include military exercises with Merkava Tanks and Apache Helicopters. Your main mission will be to infiltrate in this base, hijack a Tank Prototype and use it destroy the entire base with all it's soldiers and military vehicles.
I hope you enjoy this new trailer, specially the Intro Cutscene, which I think it is trully insane, freaking cool and gruesome, in the best Mortal Kombat style. By the way, I had to reduce my game's resolution to be able to capture this gameplay at a reasonable framerate, 20-25 fps, however, the game, as you have seen in the demo, runs smoothly at high framerates, up to 500 fps.
Here follows some Behind the Scenes work:
Other great achievement for my game, is that for the third consecutive year, Fursan al-Aqsa was named in the Top 100 Indie Games on the IndieDB Indie of the Year Awards Competition!
Thank you all for this support! But you can still vote for the 2nd phase of this competition, to select the TOP 10 Indie Games of 2021:

I have problem in business. First I start sale and service of computer in that I loss lots of cash, now I started stock market. Can I get some dua to stop loss?
First you should ask any Mufti by writing the complete detail of your business whether this business is lawful or not. If they tell you that this business is lawful then go ahead with this business otherwise leave it.
In order to save you from the loss in the business recite Ya Mughni (يا مغني) 11-11 times after Isha salah with durood 11-11 times before and after.

January 24, 2003: U.S. legislators are making new threats to use biological weapons in Colombia's civil war. In December 2002 a plan resurfaced in the U.S. House of Representatives to employ an untested pathogenic fungus, Fusarium oxysporum in Colombia's U.S.-funded "War on Drugs." Critics say the plan proposes illegal acts of biological warfare, poses major ecological risks to one of the world's most bio-diverse countries, and will increase the human damage of a failed eradication policy.

I just finished my weekly research on flights to Belize. I am happy to report that fares from 22 cities (out of 26 that we check) dropped for mid-December dates.
The dates I chose were departing on December 9, returning on December 18. These dates correspond with one of our packages that has been put on sale.
The price reductions were not huge, the largest was from Montreal to Belize which dropped $64 from last week. But every little bit helps! You can see all fares on our Belize flights page.


In the UK most air pollution information services use the index and banding system approved by the Committee on Medical Effects of Air Pollution Episodes (COMEAP). The system uses 1-10 index divided into four bands to provide more detail about air pollution levels in a simple way, similar to the sun index or pollen index.
For more information about the Boundaries Between Index Points for each Pollutant, visit the Defra UK-AIR Daily Air Quality Index page.
When air pollution is LOW (1-3) effects are unlikely to be noticed even by those who are sensitive to air pollution.
When air pollution is MODERATE (4-6) sensitive people may notice mild effects but these are unlikely to need action.
When air pollution is HIGH (7-9) sensitive people may notice significant effects and may need to take action.
When air pollution is VERY HIGH (10) effects on sensitive people, described for HIGH pollution, may worsen.
Air pollution can cause short-term health effects to sensitive individuals (people who suffer from heart disease or lung diseases, including asthma). Effects on sensitive people can be reduced by spending less time outdoors. 'Reliever' inhalers should lessen effects on asthma sufferers.
Step 1: Determine whether you (or your children) are likely to be at risk from air pollution. Information on groups who may be affected is provided on the Additional information on the short-term effects of air pollution page on the Defra UK-AIR website. Your doctor may also be able to give you advice.
Step 2: If you may be at-risk, and are planning strenuous activity outdoors, check the air pollution forecast page.
* Adults and children with heart or lung problems are at greater risk of symptoms. Follow your doctor's usual advice about exercising and managing your condition. It is possible that very sensitive individuals may experience health effects even on Low air pollution days. Anyone experiencing symptoms should follow the guidance provided on the Defra UK-AIR website.


I can see my car from here!
Google has just released Google Earth, its tool for exploring and examining satellite imagery. Best thought of as a Picasa for satellite imagery, Earth replaces Keyhole.
You can fly around the globe, and then zoom in to the detailed satellite images. I'm pretty sure I can see my car parked just down the road from our house... And the basic version costs nothing. Well, nothing but your time!
Not as deep and educational as NASA's World Wind, but quicker and a little bit more fun.
How much is Google paying, anyway?
Dammit, man, I'm at work! I need to... work... for some reason that's not very clear to me at the moment.
Well, actually I can - it's all about the eyeballs. How long before you get to see satellite views of every In-and-Out burger in the US?
Oh bugger. Now I need to get to the west coast for my burger fix.
It's all about you buying the super duper version.
Cool application. But it looks like their satellite photos of Green Park and St James's Park were taken when there was snow on the ground. White Park, anyone?
Looks like it's a simple rebranding of the Keyhole application, which is hardly surprising.
Is Keyhole the same as this one?
Keyhole was a company that Google acquired earlier this year. Their application was a satellite image viewer that allowed the user to zoom into a globe of the earth. As far as I can tell, Google Earth is almost exactly the same; the only notable difference is that Keyhole supplemented the satellite imagery with aerial photography. Neither have decent images of the UK, alas.
The Multimap image data seems to be different, but I do like the way that it overlays OS map tiles on the satellite image - Google could learn from that.
I *think* Multimap has the Millennium Maps - aerial photos of the whole of the UK, used for Big Books in which you can see our house by the white gravel the previous downstairs idiot put on the flat roof.
Pah. No version for Proper Computers yet.
given the forthcoming roadmap, dont you mean 'proper operating systems' ;) ?

A man has been arrested after punching a horse following England's World Cup semi-final defeat to Croatia.
Avon and Somerset Police were patrolling the streets of Weston-super-Mare during and after Wednesday night's match, along with police horses Quantock and Jubilee.
The force said that after dealing with a disorder at the end of the match, a man assaulted an officer and punched Quantock.
The man was arrested on suspicion of assaulting a police officer and criminal damage for punching the horse.
Later, the force tweeted a picture of the two horses in their paddock.
"Quantock is well and we hope our colleagues who were assaulted last night are ok this morning too," the force said.

To Stop Food Wastage, This School Teacher From Asansol Distributes Excess Food Among The Needy
Image Source: Chandra Sekhar Kundu/ Facebook
In a private engineering college in Asansol town of West Bengal, a sizeable amount of canteen food used to get wasted. While the students of the college were throwing away excess food, children were sitting outside the college premises who hadn't eaten in weeks. "Such a scenario left a daunting impression on me, and I decided to bring about change," said one of the teachers of the college, Mr Chandra Sekhar Kundu.
The 39-year-old computer science teacher, along with few of his colleagues and students, has started the initiative of collecting excess food from canteens of schools, colleges, and restaurants and distributing to underprivileged kids and senior citizens who are unable to work. Starting from October 2016, his NGO FEED (Food Education & Economic Development) is providing food to at least 40 people regularly four days a week.
With a team of 12 people, every day the NGO collects food from the eateries and canteens in the town that willingly give away the excess food for free. To create awareness about food wastage, they have also made a short film, called "Save Food, Save Life".
Speaking to The Logical Indian Kundu said, "Since I was too concerned about the wastage of food, I sent an RTI to the Food Corporation of India (FCI). They replied that around 23,000 metric tonnes of food grain gone had gone bad over the past two years in the FCI warehouses across the country. This is happening in our country where 19.5 crore people are undernourished,".
He further said, "Owing to such appalling figures; I had written a letter to President Pranab Mukherjee in June last year to take necessary measures. A petition was then forwarded to the FCI, who informed that that six measures — including regular online monitoring — had been taken to reduce the wastage of food grains. However, they could not do anything about the wastage of prepared food."
This motivated Mr Kundu to do something on his own. His noble initiative was supported by his colleagues Abhijit Debnath, Dr Apurba Chatterjee, Sujoy Das Mahapatra, Amitava Chakraborty. His students Ayan Mukherjee, Zinia Basu, Surya Sekhar Ganguly also came to help him. The team has built a good rapport with the owners of eateries who are supporting the cause of serving the needy. They have rented an auto-rickshaw, which collects the food and delivers it to different places around the town.
Food Education and Economic Development (FEED)
Chandra Sekhar's continuous effort now took the shape of an organization called Food Education and Economic Development (FEED) in 2016 that aimed at collecting and distributing excess food for those who slept with a hungry stomach. Along with a group of 135 students, he has now created a proper method of checking, collecting and distributing good quality excess food to the impoverished from several offices, canteens, hostels, and barracks of the police and CISF.
FEED is also a partner of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations under FAO's 'Save Food' initiative. This platform is used by them to accumulate ideas from different countries and practising the same. Students are the preferred volunteers, and they are inspired to raise funds. "We have also organised training programmes of food tasting for our volunteers, where chefs from different restaurants train them," said Chandra Sekhar.
"I had written to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, to get some idea of how to go about this initiative. UN wrote back to me making me a partner of their Save Food Initiative. Today, I have been getting support from people around the world who have been motivating me to move forward," Kundu said.
The NGO has now been able to penetrate its reach to the state capital as well. After tieing up with a company based in Kolkata, Bengal Save Food And Save Life Brigade is now regularly providing food to around 40 people, including children and elderlies, under the Gariahat flyover. "Even Ola Cabs have also approached us to help us in delivering food."
The 'Save Food Save Life' app
Chandra Sekhar and his student Ritorshi Chattaraj have come up with a unique concept of an app that will support their initiative. "The 'Save Food Save Life' Android app will be available for download on the Android Play Store. Once an account is created, users will be able to locate on Google map the places where FEED is actively donating food. Users will be able to donate food, set up a new location for food donation and discuss other ways in which they would like to assist FEED. This app will take the initiative of FEED a step ahead," said Ritorshi, in conversation with The Logical Indian.
Mr Kundu believes that taking such small initiatives across the country would help India fight the problem of undernourishment and everyone should come up to support efforts like these. You can reach out to FEED and help them help more people in other places of Bengal too. They can be reached at 9647627616 or 9434226403.
The Logical Indian salutes Mr Kundu and his team for taking up such a noble initiative.

1 month in and as predicted time is flying by! After a relatively gentle first few weeks, the work is being to pile up. With HIV week last week, at times it feels like we're drowning in a flood of global health-related acronyms (was it TDF or 3TC and EFV that the WHO recommends for ART? And second line was that AZT or ABC or NVP and shouldn't we check first to see if he has MDR-TB?). To keep my head above water, I made an overdue visit to one of Liverpool's most important medical landmarks. Dr Duncan (Liverpool's first Medical Officer for Health) might be long gone, but the pub named in his honour is still going strong and continues dispensing marvellous medicine.
19th century pubs are one thing, but 19th century poverty quite another. Staving off the destitution of full time studenthood meant doing a locum shift this weekend at my former workplace, Bradford Royal Infirmary. Amidst the everyday melee of one of the country's busiest Accident and Emergency Departments, reviewing patients recently returned from Saudi Arabia and Pakistan reminded me that, while tropical medicine might once have been the reserved for the intrepid explorer or the occasional returning sailor, in the modern world of continent-hopping global travel diseases like malaria and schistosomiasis can actually be part of the everyday differential diagnosis.
