Apple MacBook Pro with mini LED to be now under volume production
By Karan Arora
New Apple MacBook Pro Launch Soon:
Apple expected to launch a new MacBook Pro between September to November this year. The new MacBook's production has been initiated and is highly anticipated among laptop enthusiasts. Apple said that the newly designed MacBook Pro series will be different from those launched till now.
Possible Changes:
The design of the Apple MacBook Pro series will have slimmer bezels and a new squared-off look. Reports say that there will be no iconic touch bar in the device and it will make way for physical keys. In the new edition of the Apple MacBook Pro series, there will be a new M1X chip along with 64GB of RAM. There will be some changes in the processor and other parts of the MacBook. Digitimes reported that Apple has started the volume production of MacBook Pro models. Also added that the monthly shipments of MacBook Pro models will be expected as 6 lakh to 8 lakh units from August to November
Apple said that the new models of the MacBook Pro series will come with mini LED lights to control volume production and the models will be having 14inch and 16 inches screens.
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman adds:
This news shared by Apple analysts about the updates that will be launched by Apple. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman had given the update in the month of ending July, that Apple will be launching a MacBook Pro Series in August to November. He also hinted that Apple would be starting the production of the Pro Series in the ongoing third quarter. Apple's new MacBook was to be launched much earlier. However, the delay in the production of mini- LED display, has delayed the launch of the MacBook Pro series.
Apply may have set a timeline to launch the product as in September. The company will be launching the iPhone13 series and also an apple watch. Further, there were some updates that Apple will be also launching an iPad Mini. Rumors suggested that Apple may postpone the MacBook's launch to focus on smartphones at that time. Moreover, they also want people to focus on the new MacBook Pro series as well.
The new Macbook Pro models are designed flat-edged from the top and bottom as well. The new models will be replaced from 16 inch Intel Powered Macbook Pro. People were earlier demanding to replace the 16 inches model to handle their workflow. While, 14 inch MacBook pro will be served as a smaller and cheaper option to buy, which seeks balance between power and portability. The upcoming MacBook Pro models will also mark the final departure of Intel processors from Apple's MacBook portfolio across all sizes and price brackets.

Piling Quotes
You've got a recession in the auto and computer industries, you've got inventories piling up, you've got mediocre consumer spending, you've got a terrible stock market. I think the time to cut rates is now and I think they are in a good position to do it. If the Fed shows tomorrow that they realize this economy needs stimulus, I think it would be a wonderful gift for the stock market. - Greg Valliere
You have all the elements to push the price up: high demand, tight supplies, tight refining capacity, interruptions in supplies, geopolitical tensions, Iran, Nigeria, etc.. The upside is bigger than the downside, so the money is piling in. - Roger Diwan
You can't just be piling stuff on a farm and saying it's a fence, while it's posing a health and environmental hazard. You can't just take solid waste and line it up. You could take bales of garbage and do the same thing and call it a beneficial use. - Steve Tillotson
With all the e-mail and instant messages, electronic records are piling up, and people don't know how to deal with it. There are serious legal implications with this. - Stephen O'Grady
When that happens, it's a clock. It's nature's clock, and we are able to predict tide levels based on what we record today. Today, as I speak, right in front of me there's a construction crew. I'm looking out the window and they're driving pilings and pouring concrete for a dock. You would hope the engineers knew just how high the highest tide would be there. - Jim Dixon
When our most important issue is the debt that we're piling on our children and grandchildren, I think it's pretty helpful to have someone in the U.S. Senate who has actually managed billions of dollars and knows how to cut billions of dollars. - Carly Fiorina
What often happens in a situation like this is people latch onto very concrete things, like buying vaccine. That's not readiness. That's stockpiling. We have got to have first responders who know what their role is, people who can get shots into people's arms quickly, and hospitals who can handle patients. - Georges Benjamin
We've got to keep on piling up the points. If we can break records that's even better but we must always keep our minds on the next game, the most important one. - Rafael Marquez
We've been struggling of late and we're in a real dogfight in the division, so when we play games that we're supposed to win we have to ... beat these teams. These are the teams others in the conference have been piling up points against. - Brendan Morrison

In 1947 a handfull of local archers started shooting archery together on Alvin Kadolph's farm near Hadley, Minnesota. This small group shot together in several other location before they finally set roots in Alvin's machine shed around 1978. This group was then know as "Broken Arrow Archery Club".
Broken Arrow continued to grow and sought it's own building after fourteen years on Alvin's farm. In 1989 the club purchased a sewing factory in Slayton to keep up with the growing membership. The sewing factory was renovated and the club's name then changed to "Beaver Creek Archers".
Archery is a great way to keep in shape while having fun with the family and friends. Beaver Creek Archers is always looking for new members to join and become active members of our club. To learn more, at bcarchery.mn@gmail.com on our Contact Us page.

Pichlers' gift will support water features at Smale
The most recent in a string of gifts to the Cincinnati Parks Foundation will support the construction of new fountains and water features at Smale Riverfront Park.
The Cincinnati Park Board announced on Tuesday the donation from Joe and Susan Pichler. The amount of the gift was not disclosed.
"The overwhelming generosity expressed by Susan and Joe through this extraordinary gift speaks to their love for this community and their desire to demonstrate their deep appreciation for the magnanimous gift made by the John G. and Phyllis W. Smale family to bring our region's new front door to life," said Director of Cincinnati Parks Willie Carden, Jr. in a prepared release. "The Pichlers, along with others who have made transformative private gifts to the park, are leading the way into a spectacular new era for our entire region."
Joe Pichler is the former chairman and CEO of the Kroger Company. He and his wife Susan have long been involved in the civic life of Cincinnati.
"Susan and I feel fortunate to live in this wonderful city," he said. "Cincinnati has been very good to us and this gift is an expression of our appreciation."
The features will be part of the new Vine Street Plaza, which will be built as the park extends west of the Roebling Suspension Bridge.
Within the plaza will be a reflecting pool with water jets that can be programmed for different water and light effects, shaded seating areas, and a surrounding glass walkway and balconies with water curtains that will stream down to pools along Mehring Way.
An additional water feature will be a series of cascades that will line a grand stairway connecting the plaza to the rest of the park along the river, south of Mehring Way.
When completed, the plaza will be three times larger than the Walnut Street Plaza and Fountain and will double as a tented and programmed space for special events.

Like this little train I bought for my son's room made with his name.
I also discovered that you can still buy Little Golden Books. They've been around now for 65 years! Some of the stories I remember from when I was a child. So I bought a whole stack of them to read to Robbie.
I'm sure I've still got some of my old books somewhere. I've probably scribbled all over the pages though. I seem to recall drawing a moustache on Cinderella once.


Your success always demands great sacrifice from you. Are you ready to sacrifice for your success?
Sacrifice everything that creates hindrance on the path of your success.
Being responsible will establish your relationships but not your success. Success requires risk and sacrifice.
Success depends on how much you are willing to sacrifice, how much you are willing to alter your everyday life for a particular goal.
Make a commitment to yourself that today. Success is your only options! No matter the obstacles, no matter the sacrifice! You have decided you won't be denied, you won't be defeated!
Sacrifice is necessary to achieve success, it's a master of making the right kind of sacrifice.
Never sacrifice these three things: your family, your heart or your dignity. Success is not successful if you lose everything to get it.
The speed of your success is limited only by your dedication and what you are willing to sacrifice.
Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard and sacrifice, and above all don't let anyone limit your dreams.
The study your mistakes do not reveal the secret of success, but the study of self-sacrifice and effort itself will.
Sacrifice is giving up on something good for something better.
The pain of sacrifice is only temporary. You won't even remember what you gave up once you reach the goal.
Success demands for sacrifices. Sacrifice of sleep, sacrifice of entertainment, a sacrifice of comfort zone. Yes! Success needs sacrifice. But, that sacrifice is the time with a spoon of smart work and a pinch of effort with interest…still it doesn't hang on, the quantity of time you spend.

Recently my eye fell upon an amazing Python tool called glances, which monitors your system in a curses layout. It's awesome and will probably be my goto for system monitoring in the future!
When starting off it's always a good idea to go trough the README & wiki of the official repo. This post will mainly guide you trough steps already described in the README but it focusses also on adding a service you can start trough systemd and enabling remote connection possibilities with nginx & port forwarding.
We also installed bottle alongside of glances here so we can start the web interface, which we'll use to access it remotely. Glances should now be installed and you can open its interface by running glances on your Pi or in an SSH session.
While that might be fine for occasionally checking like you did with htop/top it won't suffice for our needs. Let's hit q and move on to adding it as a service.
systemd is the new init system used in Raspbian Jessie (Debian 8). It forms the replacement to init.d which was included in previous versions of Raspbian/Debian. Covering init systems & comparing them is beyond the scope of this post, but for those interested there are some links at the last section of this page.
While init.d is still present in Jessie it's not encouraged to use it anymore and solely rely on systemd. Besides why would you? Creating a unit/service with systemd is much more convenient & easy to do so!
Only continue with this if you got glances up & running by running it directly from the shell.
Alright, we've now created and started the service. If you visit the ip address of your pi in a browser, followed by port 61208 while connected on the same network you should see the glances interface!
This works great for those who want to monitor on their local network. Let's take it a step further though, and open this up so we can visit a simple url anywhere we want by using nginx's reverse proxy.
First off be sure to install all the required packages for nginx with sudo apt-get install nginx -y. The packages nginx-common and nginx-full will be installed as a requirement next to nginx itself, do not remove them!
Ctrl+x, y, enter to save. Now let's symlink it into our sites-enabled directory to enable it, test our configuration and reload nginx.
Now visiting either the ip address for your pi or the dydns hostname followed by /glances should work and everywhere you go you can take a glance at the system!

Killer's Kiss (1955)
Davey Gordon (Jamie Smith) is a New York prize-fighter. He's nearing the age of 30 and his career as a boxer is coming to an end.
We meet Davey as he is waiting for a train at the station, and he pulls us into a flashback that begins in his apartment, where he is mentally preparing for his next enormous match against a rival boxer named Kid Rodriguez.
Through his window and across the courtyard he sees Gloria (Irene Kane), a taxi dancer who is getting ready for work. The two leave the building at the same time, but they don't speak. Davey heads off to his fight and Gloria is picked up by her boss, Vincent (Frank Silvera).
As Vincent loses his big fight, Gloria fends off the advances of her sleazy boss… and later that night, Vincent hears screams coming from Gloria's apartment.
Killer's Kiss is the second feature-length film directed and produced by Stanley Kubrick, who also wrote the original screenplay. The film is only preceded in his filmography by Fear and Desire and a few short documentaries.
(Image: Movie Screenshots)
Though this film appears very early in Kubrick's filmography, his genius is already well apparent here. In addition to writing, producing and directing the film, he also served as the cinematographer and editor. It's hard to give anyone but Kubrick credit for this film's effectiveness, because he was so wholly engulfed in the process of creating it and seems to have had control over all aspects of it.
I don't think it would be possible for me to give enough praise to this film's cinematography. There isn't a single shot in Killer's Kiss that isn't beautifully framed, and the contrast is phenomenal. As a photographer with experience creating such effects in the darkroom with still photographs, there are very few things that I appreciate more than a film that's beautifully contrasted and lit, and the photography is absolutely striking here. I found it difficult to tear my eyes away from the screen for even a second due to the visual appeal alone.
According to IMDb trivia, the film's budget was very low and Kubrick failed to obtain permits for many of the on-location scenes in New York. He had to be very sly about filming these scenes, sometimes hiding in a car nearby to get the shot. This explains the naturalistic feel that the film holds, but at the same time makes the visual beauty of it all the more remarkable.
Technical difficulties also meant that Kubrick had to add all sound and dialogue in post, which many viewers seem to take issue with, but the only problem I had with this was in Gloria's stiff dialogue. One may argue that the film's blocks of near-silence make Kubrick's technical difficulties incredibly obvious and add no value to the film, but having not learned of the technical difficulties until after watching the film, I had assumed that they were all deliberate. For me, they added to the film's sense of melancholy and suspense… but to each their own, I guess!
The film's pace in the beginning is deliberately slow. While I was drawn in by this, viewers who favor more frantic openings may find it dull. I encourage you to wait it out if you're this type of viewer. The pace picks up greatly about 20 minutes in, transforming the mood into that of a thrilling noir.
Though the story is somewhat standard of the noir genre, the sense of suspense is greatly bolstered by the menacing performance of Frank Silvera. Jamie Smith's performance is decidedly more understated than Silvera's and neither of the characters is particularly meaty, but both men are incredibly solid leads for the film.
Realistic performances from the two leading men in combination with Kubrick's artistry making for a very riveting watch.
Avid fans of Kubrick's later work may not enjoy it for much more than the opportunity to observe his early craft. While researching the film I saw a number of self-professed Kubrick experts spew the "This film sucks, but the cinematography is kind of cool" spiel. Fans of noir like myself just might love the film as a whole. Or maybe I'll be the only person in the world who loves it! Regardless, the score: 4.5/5

ckckred
Kubrick is my favorite director, but this is probably my least favorite film by him. I thought it wasn't as tight as it could have been. His next feature, The Killing, improves vastly and is a great movie. Nice review.
He's a favorite of mine, too. I've seen most of his films (only missing The Killing, Fear and Desire and Paths of Glory if memory serves) and I didn't think this was his worst. He has better films, of course, but as a noir regardless of the director I found it to be a very solid effort. Then again, my least favorite is Lolita, which a lot of people love…
Thanks for reading (even though we disagree)! I figured I might be in the minority on this one, and it's always nice to read different perspectives. :)
Todd Benefiel
I agree with everything you say, Lindsey, especially when you discuss the photography, the actual locations, and the guerilla-style of filmmaking. My favorite noir-photography scene is…well, you'll have to check my review, going up tomorrow!
So don't feel scared and alone…now there are TWO of us!
I think we may be the only two, but if we are, at least we're in good company. :) I will be sure to read your review tonight!
Yes, we are! And maybe through our combined efforts, we can convince a few more to give it a try!

The Butchers' Shop at 39 Chilwell Road - by David Hallam
The shop premises at 39 Chilwell Road Beeston - on the west corner of Hall Croft - are now occupied as an antique shop but with a long history of occupation as a butchers shop. During much of that time, the living accomodation above the shop - designated as 39a - was occupied by the butcher and his family.
It is likely that the building was erected during in the last years of the 19th century and that Owen Sutton was its first occupant, probably as a tenant. Certainly, by the time of the census in March 1901, he was living there with his wife, a family of two and a live in assistant and his butchery busness appears to be well established. The picture on the right shows Owen with his wife Joyce, daughters Elsie and Fanny and his assistant, standing outside the Chilwell Road shop. From the ages of the children, we can guess that this is from about 1903.
Owen Sutton was born in Derbyshire1 in about 1872, the fourth child (of at least 9) and third son of John - a colliery labourer who had moved from farm work when opportunities arose in mining - and Anne Sutton. The couple came to the Lenton/Radford area of Nottingham around 1878, following John's work as a coal miner. However, by 1883, John had changed direction in his career and had established himself as a butcher, trading at 296 Ilkeston Road.2 By 1885 he had moved to 324 Ilkeston Road and by 1891 his address was 340-342 Ilkeston Road, Old Radford. By then, Owen was fully involved in his father's business and married Joyce Sparham Johnson in 1894 and two daughters were born over the next six years. It was in about 1900 that he made the decision - for whatever reason3 - to move to Beeston and set up on his own.
Owen Sutton continued to trade on Chilwell Road until at least 19054 but, by 1913, he took over a butcher's shop, previously occupied by William Cropper, at 51 Wollaton Road, Beeston - just south of Broughton Street where Willoughby Garages stood until very recently. He still occupied this address in 1920. By about 1932 his shop address had become 87 Wollaton Road - probably as a result of renumbering - and, by 1940, his widow was operating the business. The family home on Cator Lane Chilwell was built on land acquired by Owen Sutton at the auction of the Charlton Estate after World War 1. Their son John, who was born in 1914 became very well known in the Beeston area as a teacher and local Councillor. It is curious that, in this advertisement from the early 1930s, shown right, the firm is styled "Sutton & Son" which appears to suggest that there was an intention that John would become involved. The photograph on the left shows John Sutton as a schoolboy, standing with his father outside the Wollaton Road shop in about 1925. (Click the image to enlarge)
30 Chilwell Road was evidently an excellent trading position for a butcher as, after Owen Sutton's occupancy, only three butchers traded there over the next 70 or more years:
By 1913 and for over 30 years, by William Wright5
In 1945 the property was conveyed to Herbert Ford who traded there for about 20 years.
In 1964 Alfred Richard Elliott transferred his business there from 47 High Road. In 1972, he purchased the freehold from the Ford family.6
Geoffrey Drinkwater has given us the following memories of Russell Old who was the grandson of Owen Sutton and remembers the Wollaton Road shop:
"It was probably sometime in the mid 1980s that I was well acquainted with Russell Old. He was the son of Jack and Fanny (née Sutton) Old, whose butcher's shop had been on the southern corner of the junction of Broughton Street with Wollaton Road, Beeston (where Willoughby's Garage now is). The business ran under the name of Sutton's, having previously belonged to Jack's father-in-law. Russell had been his father's delivery boy, using a purpose-designed bicycle with a large carrier at the front. By his own account, this job had taken him to every nook and cranny in the local area and he was full of anecdotes, often mentioning the names of other Beeston butchers. On one occasion, it compellingly came to me that I should write down these names for posterity - which I did at Russell's dictation
"Earlier this year (2007), my wife and I visited Brailsford Parish Church in Derbyshire on the occasion of the committal of Russell's ashes. It was during the following lunchtime conversation with his sisters that I first became aware that he was a distant relative. As an indirect consequence of this, when recently going through my local history papers in connection with news items about a proposed tram route to Beeston in 1902, I came across Russell's list of 21 butchers'shops, all within about a square mile, some of the locations of which I have expanded from my own memory:"
Ward Wollaton Road, north of junction with Cyprus Avenue
Harry Pegg Wollaton Rd., north corner of junction with Abbey Road
Sutton Broughton St., south corner of junction with Wollaton Road
Roberts Wollaton Road next to Westminster Bank
Billy George Beeston Square
Archie Willden* Chapel Street, west corner of junction with Middle St.
Sam Marlowe High Road, next door to Hallams
Alf Elliott High Road, west corner of junction with Villa Street
Bailey High Road, west corner of junction with Stoney Street
George Longley High Road, east corner of junction with Willoughby St
Dewey High road, towards City Road
Clifford High Road, near east corner of junction with Union Street
Jack Popplewell High Road, W corner of junction with Union Street (now Hoggs)
Ford High Road, next door but one to east corner of Station Rd
Herbert Ford Chilwell Road, west corner of Hall Croft
Wharton Chilwell Rd., about four shops east of junction with Imperial Rd
Norman Winfield Station Rd, east side, 100 yd north of junction with Queens Rd
Eric Winfield Meadow Rd, next but one to S corner of junction with Trafalgar Rd
Herbert Foister Queens Rd, west corner of junction with Mona Street
Ernest Kelham High Rd, Chilwell in 1930s block next to The Twitchell
Jack Watson High Rd, Chilwell in 1930s block next to The Twitchell
* Archie Willden moved to the shop in Beeston Square when Billy George finished. Archie's tiny little shop at the end of Chapel Street was then taken by Roy Shepherd, who installed a stick-chopping machine and sold bundles of sticks for fire kindling.
Beeston Butchers - 1905 - 1952
The record of Beeston butchers recorded by Geoffrey Drinkwater, based on the personal memories of Russell Old, is extremely interesting as it includes the kind of detail - everyday names, precise locations, transient businesses and tiny, colourful details - which are not revealed by the usually available documentary sources - contemporary commercial directories, Nevertheless, by using these sources it is possible to extend the exercise to a wider period. As one would expect, there is a good match with the directories from the 1930/1940 era - the period covered by Russell's memory - and, in addition we can get a feel for the remarkably large number of butchers who provided for the dining tables of Beeston folk over the period of the nearly 50 years that we have surveyed. In this table pork butchers are highlighted in green:

Pork Butchers are highlighted in green
The period of our survey, covering almost 50 years, saw great changes in the role of the family butcher - and changes have continued up to the present time - although modern shoppers will find the relatively large number of butchers shops at the beginning of our survey in 1905, quite remarkable. Then, we find 27 butchers serving a population of some 9,000 which, it was almost twice the number that served the community in 1952 - despite a perhaps four-fold increase in population and a much wider area of housing. Although that number includes specialist pork butchers and others with specialities of their own, there does seem to have been an over-provision and, as can be seen, some did come and go within a short time. We must, however, remember that the nature of the butcher's trade changed considerably over the almost 50 years we have tracked. At the beginning, most shops would have slaughtering facilities - many older residents can recall animals being driven along Chilwell Road to the High Road shops7 - and they would sell the meat fresh; Alfred Richard Elliott, for instance, still held a licence to slaughter animals as late as 1958, although it is probable that he had discontinued doing so some years earlier. As refrigeration began to be introduced, there was a gradual separation of the two aspects of the butcher's trade and shop slaughterhouses fell out of use. Wartime rationing and shortages also had a big impact. Later - essentially after the period we are considering - the widespread adoption of home refrigeration has changed shopping practices, with the frequent shopping expedition a thing of the past and the traditional butcher now competing with the ease of buying packaged products as part of less frequent supermarket shopping expedition.
1Records differ as to the precise location of his birthplace. It is variously recorded as Alfreton, Somercotes or Sleetmoor; all are close by and all then mining towns on close to the Nottinghamshire border and not far from the Derbyshire Peak District.
2The addresses for John Sutton's shop are based on entries in Wright's Directory 1883 and 1885 and the 1891 and 1901 census respectively.
3Maybe it was rivalry between the brothers;its hard to know whether it was the cause or the effect of Owen's leaving, but by March 1901, his brother Harry appears to be in partnership with his father and Arthur, another brother, also still at home, is described as "Butcher's Manager - in charge".
4Owen Sutton's move to Wollaton Road can be dated between 1905 and 1913 based on his entries in Wright's Directory for these years. Directories were used to track his address in 1920, 1932 and 1952.
5William Wright is listed there in Wrights Directory for 1913, 1920 and 1941
6Schedule of deeds dated 13 Sept 1972, in the Elliott family papers.
7The author's mother retained a vivid memory of, as a small child, standing outside her father's baker's shop at 42 Chilwell Road, watching cattle being driven into Beeston for that purpose. This would be about 1906.

La París-Niza 1971, fue la edición número 29 de la carrera, que estuvo compuesta de nueve etapas y un prólogo disputados del 10 al 17 de marzo de 1971. Los ciclistas completaron un recorrido de 1.129 km con salida en Dourdan y llegada a Col d'Èze, en Francia. La carrera fue vencida por el belga Eddy Merckx, que fue acompañado en el podio por el sueco Gösta Pettersson y el español Luis Ocaña.

Recorrido
El recorrido de 1.128 kilómetros se divide en nueve etapas y un prólogo disputados en 7 días. Hay tres contrarrelojes individuales: el prólogo, el segundo sector de la segunda etapa y el último día con la cronoescalada al Col d'Èze. Se reparten bonificaciones de seis, cuatro y dos segundos para los tres primeros en línea de meta menos en el prólogo que las bonificaciones son de cuatro, tres, dos y un segundo por los cuatro primeros de la etapa.

Los ganadores de las etapas en línea bonifican cinco segundos menos en el prólogo donde también bonifican el segundo, tercero y cuarto con tres, dos y un segundo, respectivamente.

Participantes
En esta edición de la París-Niza toman parte 98 corredores divididos en 11 equipos:  Molteni,  Bic,  Ferretti, Fagor-Mercier, Flandria-Mars,  Filotex, Peugeot-BP-Michelin, Sonolor-Lejeune, Goudsmit-Hoff, TI-Carlton y Hoover-De Gribaldy. La prueba lo acabaron 70 corredores.

Desarrollo

La prueba es una tiranía de  Merckx y su equipo. El belga es líder en todas las etapas menos en el segundo sector de la segunda etapa, ya que Eric Leman consigue el primer puesto en la general gracias a las bonificaciones.

 Merckx basa su victoria en su dominio en las contrarreloj, ya que gana las tres que se disputan: el prólogo en la subida de Dourdan, la crono del tercer día a Autun y la cronoescalada en el Col d'Èse. Además, en la  primera etapa provoca un corte de 18 corredores que le sacan 11 '30 "al gran grupo donde hay Raymond Poulidor y Franco Bitossi.
El dominio de  Merckx es tal que prácticamente no hay combatividad en el resto de favoritos. La mayoría de etapas en línea se resuelven en un sprint masivo. Sólo  Vianen y Ronald De Witte ganan tras una fuga en la quinta y sexta etapa. Esta última es la única con alguna incidencia, ya que Luis Ocaña pincha a cuatro kilómetros de meta dejándose quince segundos con el resto de favoritos. El español pierde definitivamente la segunda posición en la general en favor de Gösta Pettersson, ya que no puede recuperar esta diferencia en la contrarreloj final en el Col d'Ese.

El otro gran nombre de la prueba es Eric Leman que se impone en tres etapas.  Leman podría haber ganado alguna etapa más pero su equipo, Flandria-Mars, no toma la salida en la sexta etapa por la muerte de su líder Jean-Pierre Monse en una carrera en Bélgica.

Surprisingly, some common "people foods" are dangerous for dogs and can even be lethal. Most dogs love food,especially what their owners are eating, but before you are tempted to share, be aware that there are some foods they should avoid even though they are harmless for us. Also, keep these foods out of their reach as dogs are inclined to eat just about anything rather quickly.

Statement endorsed by 147 investors representing $3.7 trillion appeals to global brands to recommit to three-year extension to fulfill Accord's mandate to remediate fire and safety violations in apparel sector.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, Thursday, January 25th, 2018 – Members of the Bangladesh Investor Initiative issued a statement today calling on companies sourcing from the Bangladesh apparel sector to renew their commitment to protect worker health and safety by endorsing the three-year extension of the Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh (Accord).
The investors say additional time is needed to complete the remediation plans and worker training indicated by audits at the over 1,600 factories covered by the Accord. The statement will accompany letters being sent to the 160 companies that have not yet become signatories to the three-year extension of the Accord, urging them to participate.
The investors are part of the Bangladesh Investor Initiative organized by the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility to press brands and retailers sourcing in Bangladesh to join the Accord and remediate human rights risks in their supply chains. The statement was endorsed by 147 institutional investors that collectively represent $3.7 trillion in managed assets.
Said Henrike Kulmann of Allianz Global Investors GmbH, "The new agreement between global trade unions and companies ensures that the industry continues to remediate safety issues found in garment factories and build effective worker safety committees. They are an important component to mitigating risks to workers and supply chain disruption as well as reputational risks to global brands sourcing in Bangladesh. We call on all companies sourcing from Bangladesh to become Accord signatories to mitigate these serious human rights and business risks."
For the 1,600 factories have been inspected under the Accord, 82 percent of the identified safety issues have been fixed, the majority of them electrical.
"Investors have been particularly pleased to see that, in addition to fixing specific problems, the Accord has worked to address the systemic issues that led to disasters like Rana Plaza," said Lauren Compere of Boston Common Asset Management, "It is critical to ensure that future safety problems are detected before they become life-threatening events. The detailed comprehensive work achieved by the Accord is a positive signal to investors that safety risks are being carefully and sustainably managed."
The investor statement recommends brands undertake the following:
1. Accord companies, who have yet to sign the 2018 Accord, do so duringthe first Quarter of this year.
2. Companies that were part of the Alliance, which is disbanding in 2018, join the Accord and therefore maximize collective leverage to complete safety reforms and strengthen action to build the capacity of the Bangladesh government's oversight of worker safety by 2021.
3. Brands and retailers sourcing in the garment sector expand safety inspections to knitting, spinning & weaving; washing, dyeing & printing facilities; embroidery & accessories; home textiles; leather and footwear.
4. Brands, retailers and other stakeholders strengthen the National Tripartite Plan of Action on Fire Safety and Structural Integrity in Bangladesh's garment sector to ensure an integrated approach to promoting fire safety and building integrity, and to provide a platform for stakeholders engaged in fire safety initiatives.
"To date, only 60 of the 220 signatories of the Accord have signed the new agreement to extend the program until May 2021," stated David Schilling, senior program director of ICCR. "While much has been achieved in making garment factories in Bangladesh safer, there is more to be done, including the establishment of worker safety committees in each factory. The success of the Accord is built on the unprecedented collective action of brands and trade unions. Continued solidarity is needed to finish the job and prevent hard-earned gains from disappearing."

Longmire: Netflix Sets Season 4 Release Date, Solves Time Jump Mystery
By Michael Ausiello / July 28 2015, 8:40 AM PDT
Longmire fans, it's the Season 4 update you've been (impatiently) waiting for.
Netflix announced on Tuesday that the ex-A&E drama's 10-episode fourth season will drop on Thursday, Sept. 10.
The streaming giant also released a mildly spoilery longline that revealed, among other things, that Season 4 "picks up moments after Season 3's exciting finale" — which suggested that Branch had been shot by his father or vice versa — and finds Walt succumbing to his darker impulses after learning who was behind the murder of his wife.
On the casting front, Netflix confirms that Ally Walker will recur in an unspecified role, joining returning regulars Robert Taylor, Bailey Chase, Katee Sackhoff, Lou Diamond Phillips, Cassidy Freeman and Adam Bartley. Gerald McRaney will also reprise his role as Barlow Connally for an arc.
