(Reuters) -Carvana Co on Friday announced another round of job cuts that will impact about 1,500 employees, or 8% of its workforce, as it attempts to cut costs amid waning demand for used cars on the back of rising interest rates.
The company's chief executive officer, Ernie Garcia, said in an internal memo obtained by CNBC that the company faced economic headwinds from higher financing costs.
Carvana also "failed to accurately predict how this would all play out and the impact it would have on our business," added CNBC, which first reported the job cuts, citing the memo.
The workforce reduction was initiated to match the company's size with the current environment and achieve financial goals, Carvana said in a regulatory filing.
The job cuts mainly impact employees in the corporate, technology and operation departments, the company added.
Demand for used cars has been hurt by hybrid-working models and higher costs caused by rising interest rates, as consumers rethink personal mobility options to try and trim their daily expenses.
The weak demand has forced Carvana to sell many used cars at lower prices after having acquired them at a higher cost due to strong demand for personal transportation.
It is now faced with soaring expenses that have led to dour results in the last five quarters, raising investor concerns and sending its shares tumbling this year.
"Carvana's restructuring is a multi-quarter work-in-progress," Baird analyst Colin Sebastian had commented earlier this month after the company reported a bigger-than-expected loss.
The Tempe Arizona-based company, best known for its automated car vending machines, earlier this year laid off around 2,500 employees, or 12% of its workforce.
Shares of Carvana were nearly flat in evening trade, after closing down 3% on Friday. They are down about 97% for the year.

Ex-Hawick Community Council chairwoman denies causing road-rage collision
Jedburgh Justice of the Peace Court.
A pensioner has been accused of causing a car crash and then driving off in an alleged road-rage incident.
Former Hawick Community Council chairwoman Marion Short is on trial at Jedburgh Justice of the Peace Court charged with careless driving, failing to stop after an accident and not reporting a collision to the police within 24 hours.
It is claimed the 67-year-old, of Heronhill Bank, Hawick, gesticulated aggressively towards another motorist she was trying to overtake on the B6358 Dunion road near Jedburgh on December 7 last year.
The court was told that Short's Mini Cooper was tailgating a Volkswagen Polo driven by Jacqueline Sargent and then, when she overtook the car on a straight stretch of road, she pulled in excessively quickly, causing the two vehicles to collide, sustaining damage.
Mrs Sargent, 58, who lives near Hawick, gave her version of the events from the witness box, explaining that she was heading to a meeting in Jedburgh and had turned off the A698 onto the B6358.
She said she quickly became aware of a cream-coloured Mini vehicle coming up behind her, adding: "It was tailgating. It was very close to the back of my car.
"I could see the driver in silhouette. They seemed frustrated, throwing their arms around and making gestures.
"The person seemed angry, and I was trying to find somewhere to pull in and let them pass because I thought it was dangerous, but it was a windy road and I could not at that stage.
"I eventually got onto the straight, and the Mini tried to overtake, but it came in too quickly and clipped my car.
"I had wanted her to pass me, so I held my speed allowing her to pass, but as her car overtook, I felt an impact and was quite shocked.
"I assumed the car would stop, but it sped off."
Mrs Sargent described how she flashed her lights at the Mini as she tried to follow it, but it did not stop.
She was then overtaken by a white Mercedes van, and all three vehicles continued their journeys into Jedburgh.
When they arrived in Jedburgh, the Mini turned off to the left and the van pulled over to the side of the road.
She approached the van's driver, Matthew Elder, and asked if he had witnessed what happened. He told her he had and had noted the Mini's registration number.
Mrs Sargent then reported the incident to Jedburgh police station.
Asked by depute fiscal Tessa Bradley to sum up the accused's driving, she answered "erratic".
The collision had left a dent above the wheel arch on the bodywork of her car costing £540 to repair, she added.
Medical supplies delivery driver Mr Elder, 62, of East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, was next up to give evidence, and he said: "It seems to me the Mini was tailgating the car in front. It was driving very close to the bumper."
Mr Elder said the driver of the Mini seemed "very irate" and was "waving her arms, urging the driver in front to go quicker".
Mrs Sargent's Polo appeared to be driving to the speed limit, he said, rejecting a suggestion by defence lawyer Ed Hulme that it was going at a speed of between 10 and 15mph.
Mr Elder said he had witnessed the incident from an elevated position in his van and insisted "100%" that there had been contact between the two vehicles.
He described it as a road-rage incident, adding: "I would not like that car behind me. The driving was erratic."
Police officers called at Short's home five days later to charge her with three breaches of road traffic laws and noticed "minor paint damage, scratching and scuffing near to the wheel arch" on the Mini parked in the driveway, but PC Stewart Little said: "It was a surprise when there was only the minor damage."
Short, deputy chairperson of the Campaign for Borders Rail, denies all three charges.
Her trial, before JP John Jeffrey, continues on January 25.

Pehea ka no'ono'o ? : transitional experiences of Hawaiian language immersion school graduates moving into higher education
dc.contributor.author Finneran-Swatek, Karen Louise
dc.description Ph.D. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2012.
dc.description Includes bibliographical references.
dc.description.abstract Institutions of higher education are seeing an increasingly diverse population of students on campuses. One source of this increase is students who are entering the academy from a wider variety of educational environments. In order to support and serve more diverse students in higher education, educators and student affairs practitioners need insight into the perceptions, experiences, and needs of these students. This study examines the transitional experiences of Hawaiian language immersion school graduates who move into higher education in a non-Hawaiian studies major. The research questions that guided this inquiry are: 1) What do students educated in the Papahana Kaiapuni 'Ōlelo Hawaiʻi experience when they enter the college environment with a non-Hawaiian language major? 2) What are their perceptions of this experience? Are these perceptions different from what they expected? If so, how are they different? And 3) What strategies do they use during the transition experience? This qualitative, phenomenological multiple case study used transition theory to frame and guide the inquiry. Data collection consisted of a focus group, individual interviews, video recordings and field notes. Five participants from two different Papahana Kaiapuni 'Ōlelo Hawaiʻi schools provided the data. The participants transitioned into four different campuses in a public higher education system in the state of Hawaiʻi. First-year adjustments and challenges experienced by these students included cultural challenges, language issues, and variations in support strategies. Three themes emerged from the data: community, dealing with differences in size between environments; and changes in support. These findings have implications for theory and practice. Implications for theoretical models of transition include an awareness of the circular pattern of indigenous peoples. Practitioners and educators can draw a broader understanding of students entering colleges from indigenous settings to help these students succeed in the academy.

Zaidee O'Dell, London project manager, Compassionate Neighbours,and Associate Consultant at Campbell Tickell, details her work with St Joseph's Hospice in East London on the Compassionate Neighbours project.
At a time when the world often feels mad and cruel, it is heart-warming to witness so many people eager to engage with those in their community who need support. It is as if they need the opportunity and permission to do so. I have spent the past 18 months working with St Joseph's Hospice in east London to deliver a project close to my heart.
Compassionate Neighbours is a movement of local people who are enabled and supported to be more compassionate in their local communities. They provide social and emotional support to people towards the end of their life and also share knowledge and experiences of end of life and loss within their community.
Collective responsibility
The award-winning project was introduced to the hospice 10 years ago. Inspired by the concept of compassionate communities, the programme aims to replicate a similar one in Kerala, India. Underpinned by public health principles, to promote and protect health and well-being, it emphasizes the collective responsibility of society and community.
In 2017 St Joseph's received funding from a Nesta innovation fund to roll out Compassionate Neighbours to seven other hospices across London and the suburbs. It was a privilege to manage this setup. So how does it work? In contrast to traditional befriending programmes, few boundaries are placed on the relationship between compassionate neighbours and the person they support. Instead, volunteers are supported to develop a meaningful reciprocal relationship and engage with one another, as much or as little as feels comfortable. There is no requirement for compassionate neighbours to report on their activity.
Compassionate neighbours interacting with residents at Limetree Court, run by Anchor Hanover Group
No shortage of volunteers
Communities have warmly embraced the concept. There has been no shortage of people wanting to undertake the two days of experiential training – the youngest just 19 and the oldest 85. At the end of March 2019 there were more than 900 compassionate neighbours across London and almost 500 matched with someone in their community.
Several informal partnerships have been formed in developing projects. One example is St Joseph's and Anchor Hanover Housing Association, which welcomed compassionate neighbours into a new extra-care scheme in Hackney, east London, where none of the residents knew each other.
The compassionate neighbours help to run a social club in the communal lounge and more than half the residents now regularly participate in activities as a result of their encouragement and support. As one estate manager remarked:
The neighbours have created an amazingly warm atmosphere of ease and inclusiveness. Residents can just sit and chat, meet their physical neighbours, play dominoes or cards or watch a film. One of the neighbours is a gardener and he plants alongside residents.
Knock-on effects
Sometimes these interactions lead to even more. An 88-year-old man with ill health and a history of hoarding and challenging behaviour lived in the scheme. He was matched with a compassionate neighbour who encouraged him to play his record collection and also encouraged him out of his hoarding behaviours and into socialising. As noted: "For one lonely person in a difficult stage of life, this has had a massive knock-on effect for everyone surrounding him."
Death unites us all but it is rarely talked about. None of us can prevent it but we can prevent the fear and isolation many people experience when faced with it. The mission of Compassionate Neighbours is to catalyse community action so everyone can create meaningful and reciprocal relationships that sustain them towards the end of their lives.

Leave a Comment on HOWE TARGET SIGNS NEW DEAL HOURS AFTER NEWCASTLE INTEREST SURFACED
Before the September 1st transfer deadline, Newcastle pushed hard to sign Joao Pedro from Watford. The Brazilian was the subject of a £25m bid from the Magpies, with Fabrizio Romano claiming that the South American was on the verge of joining Eddie Howe at St James' Park. However, Watford dug their heels in, and Newcastle eventually managed to sign Alexander Isak in a £63m deal from Real Sociedad instead. Newcastle remain interested in Pedro despite that, with The Athletic claiming in recent hours that internal talks have been held over a £35m January move for the 20-year-old. Now, there's a problem.
NEWCASTLE TARGET JOAO PEDRO SIGNS NEW CONTRACT
Well, Newcastle's chances of signing Pedro have now become a lot slimmer, as Watford have managed to agree a new six-year contract with their No.10 against all odds. The youngster was said to be keen on a move to Tyneside over the summer, but despite their status as a Championship side, the Hornets have convinced the Newcastle target to stay at Vicarage Road. It comes after Pedro scored two goals and provided two assists in nine Championship appearances so far this season.
Leave a Comment on NEWCASTLE TRANSFER NEWS: PSG'S ARNAUD KALIMUENDO SET TO JOIN RENNES
Newcastle United are definitely going to miss out on signing Arnaud Kalimuendo, as the forward is now set to join Rennes. That's according to L'Equipe, who state that the Ligue 1 side are very close to finalising a deal with Paris Saint-Germain. They state that Rennes will pay £21million for the 20-year-old, and that PSG will receive a percentage of any future fee they get for Kalimuendo. It ends talk of a move to the Premier League for the youngster, and it ends talk of a move to St James' Park.
The Magpies have spent the entire summer looking for a new forward to act as backup to Callum Wilson. It was meant to be Hugo Ekitike, but he decided to join PSG instead. Newcastle have since been left to look elsewhere, and have been linked with Kalimuendo – who has ironically been pushed down the pecking order at PSG by Ekitike. It was claimed last month that Dan Ashworth had tabled a £17million bid for the Frenchman, who has excelled on loan at Lens over the past two years. He scored 12 Ligue 1 goals last season, which caught the attention of Newcastle and other Premier League teams.

North London giants Tottenham Hotspur are the latest team to join the race to sign highly rated Brazilian midfielder Lucas Paqueta who plays his club football at French top flight team Lyon. Spurs have joined North London rivals Arsenal and fellow Premier League team Newcastle United in the race to sign the Brazil senior team player.

Newcastle United had the best unbeaten run amongst the Premier League teams before it was ended by Chelsea last month.
European champions Chelsea stopped the Magpies unbeaten league run thanks to a 1-0 home win. German attacker Kai Havertz scored the only goal of the match with a minute left on the clock.

Newcastle United are out of the relegation zone in the Premier League following their 3-1 home win over Everton on Tuesday night. Newcastle United are the big spenders in the Premier League and they began the home clash against Everton with the knowledge that a win will take them out of the bottom three for the first time in September. The Magpies have spent the majority of this season in the bottom three which will guarantee demotion to the English Championship at the end of the season.

Everton came into their game against Newcastle United with the poorest record in the division over the last four months. They had a record of one win in their last 13 league games and the loss to Newcastle United earlier this week made it one win in their last 14 league games. The solitary win came against Arsenal as they overturned a late first half deficit to beat the Gunners 2-1 at home.

'Ideological differences with Samajwadi Party': Shiv Sena rules out alliance in UP
Sanjay Raut said that Shiv Sena has been working for a long time in Uttar Pradesh but didn't contest elections because it did not want to hurt the BJP.

Sanjay Raut said that Shiv Sena will not join any alliance in Uttar Pradesh
Raut said that Sena will contest 50-100 seats in Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections
He claimed that exit of Swami Prasad & other MLAs indicates that UP is moving towards a change
Senior Shiv Sena leader has said that the party will not be part of any alliance in Uttar Pradesh. Raut added that he will visit western Uttar Pradesh soon and dropped hints that the party may field 100 candidates.
To a question about the possibility of joining the ranks with the Samajwadi Party-led alliance, he said that the Shiv Sena has ideological differences with Akhilesh's party and categorically stated that the party will go solo.
"Shiv Sena will not be part of any alliance in UP. We have ideological differences with Samajwadi Party but we want a change in the state," Raut said. "We are working for a long time in UP but didn't contest elections because it did not want to hurt the BJP."
"Shiv Sena will contest on 50-100 seats in Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. I will be visiting western Uttar Pradesh," he added.
Raut's reaction came a day after Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) supremo Sharad Pawar announced that his party has joined the SP-led alliance in Uttar Pradesh for the upcoming polls.
Reacting to the exit of Swami Prasad Maurya and other MLAs from the BJP, Raut said that this indicates that Uttar Pradesh is moving towards a political change.
The Uttar Pradesh polls will be held in seven phases -- on February 10, 14, 20, 23, 27, March 3 and 7. The results will be declared on March 10 along with the four other poll-bound states of Punjab, Uttarakhand, Goa and Manipur.

migration | RJ Approves This Message!
Two products are in preview mode in AWS. This is a brief post about them.
DMS – DMS stands for database migration services. This service allows you to migrate a source database to a target database by means of a replication instance. AWS also allows you to migrate to a different database by using the AWS schema generator tool to generate a new appropriate schema for the new database. The replication appliances or instances are at the heart of the conversion process where all the conversion takes place. It is available in multiple sizes and depends on your performance requirements.
Below is a list of different sizes of the replication instance available.
During conversion source db is fully operational and the process is non disruptive.
Any delta changes at source are also fully replicated to the target. The replication appliance takes care of this and also does compression.
There are no hidden charges – you only pay for the size of replication appliance you deploy regardless of your db size.
Transfer between similar databases or transfer among dissimilar databases.
DMS can also be used as a disaster recovery product because of its ability to constantly replicate the changed data from source to target.
Elastic File System – AWS enters the file storage sector by introducing the elastic file system – a file storage system over NFSv4 protocol. We know that S3 provides object storage and EBS provides block storage for AWS work loads. Now EFS provides file storage allowing for easy consumption for your workloads.
EFS has no base charge and is pay as you go at 0.30 cents a GB. You only pay for what you use.
EFS is mounted directly to your EC2 instance and multiple EC2 instances can share a EFS mount.
EFS is backed by SSD storage and there is no additional cost for performance gains.
EFS in theory is advertised as unlimited growth.
Multiple EC2 instances in different Availability zones in a region can access the same EFS instance.
EFS instance is replicated across multiple availability zones.
Hope this gave you a pretty high level over view of what AWS has up and coming.

One of the many struggles of humanity in recent decades is to curb racial discrimination. As we mourned the casualties influenced by race, we have set efforts for such atrocities to never occur once more.

According to the law, a sheriff is a peace officer who enforces criminal laws, serves warrants, manages the county jail, and protects the courts. The general public funds the sheriff's office.

We all take New York for what it has been known since the beginning of all good things—the Big Apple, the city that never sleeps, the city where dreams are made of. New York City is "the" dream for most people. It's an art, food, business and career haven, all wrapped up in yellow cabs and enormous skyscrapers. However, it's not all sunshine and gold even in New York. As we explore its dark and gloomy avenues, Business Insider names the Top 5 most dangerous neighborhoods in New York City…
Safety On: Carrying A Service Sidearm While Off Duty
Just a few days ago, on June 2, 2018, an off-duty FBI agent was dancing in a club. After performing a backflip, his service firearm fell off his person. While picking it up to holster it, the firearm went off, hitting a spectator. Fortunately, the man hit wasn't badly hurt. But the fact remains that a civilian was shot with a service firearm in what does appear to have been a preventable accident. As of the writing of this article, there hasn't been any news on what sanctions, if any,…
Theory Police: Is a Uniform National Police Policy Viable?
Some would say that the federal government we've adopted here in the United States is both a blessing and a curse. It's a blessing in the sense that each state, while under a single government, gets to focus on the specific wants, needs, and capacities or the state with minimal cost or consequence to its neighbors. This is great as it means each state gets to manage regional laws and policies. There's a downside as well, however. This downside is probably felt most by law enforcement. Not only does local…
Red ALERT: Preparing First Responders For School Shooters
Since the start of 2018, school shootings have been an almost weekly occurrence. Ever since the 1999 Columbine School shooting, first responders around America have been seeing a shift in school shooting policy. From the more methodical but slower tactical response, the new rapid response policy has one main guiding statement: go towards the gunfire. Why this shift though? It seems reckless for law enforcement to rush in blindly towards a shooter, doesn't it? The answer, however, lies in statistics. Over the years, studies of the shootings have determined that…

Update 9th February 2021
As this half term draws to a close, we are keen to ensure that you are up to date with current news and developments. Key points to share are as follows:
The government has announced that it intends to reopen schools on 8 March. Currently, we don't know what this will look like and will keep you informed of what this means for you and your child once further guidance is released.
Free school meal vouchers will continue to be issued to cover half term.
The Trust COVID Risk Assessment and academy customised plans have been updated in response to the new more infectious variants. We continue to do everything we can to minimise the risk of infection in school. For example, all students who consented were tested twice in week 2 and 3 of the term and weekly tests for all staff were introduced in week 2, stepping up to twice weekly by week 4.
We are putting significant time and resources into ensuring that our students are safe and that you as parents and carers are given the right support when you need it. We are also driving forward with our core agenda of preparing the parents of the future. Our current priority is to ensure that all our students have access to our Passport to Prepare, which will be launched after half term.
If your child is not coming into one of our academies can you please encourage them to engage with our fantastic remote learning offer? Accessing this will give them a daily focus and sense of achievement, as well as helping them to still feel part of school life. Please let us know if you are experiencing any difficulties in accessing this.
Finally, I wanted to reassure you that the mood across the trust remains consistently positive and calm. Our staff are working incredibly hard to address the needs of our students, whether they are attending school or not. As ever if you have any questions or concerns please get in touch.

This is so unexpected. I was attending a farewell party for Nanda, one of our senior engineers when suddenly the organizer announced this award. They called me.
"What…?", I thought. I'm really touched by this. Thank you to all my colleagues, friends, managers, lab director. It means so special in my heart. I will never forget this day.

Christina from Girls Game Shelf comes on our podcast for an interview about games (duh), family and diversity.


I recently spotted a Groupon deal for a local gym and gave it some serious consideration. The deal would have worked out to $47 for a three-month membership. They normally charge $44 per month so this would have worked out to be a pretty good deal.
I ended up passing on the deal (more on that in a minute), but I started throwing out the idea of getting a gym membership. It's something I've been thinking about for awhile.
Weight. A couple of years back, I made a few small changes in my diet and such, and steadily started dropping weight. I'm 5'8″ and at 170 pounds I wasn't overweight, but after slowly dropping down to 152, I was pretty happy. Over this calendar year, I've backslid a little to around 157. I liked my overall health and such at 152, and cardio would be good.
Cholesterol. A few years back I had 'high' cholesterol values. I was able to get to an 'acceptable' range by diet and such, but I've always been so close to the border that I'd like to get lower. My 'good' value is also on the low end, and my physician has told me that regular exercise would help.
Variety. I have an exercise bike in my basement, and while I start every once in a while, I get bored with it over a couple of weeks. I'd like other options that will keep me from getting into a pattern that will allow me to drift off.
Routine. When I work out regularly, I find that I have more energy overall.
Tone. In addition to cardio, I'd like to get a little bit more toned up. I'm not going to turn into a muscular freak, especially as I'm near 40, but I'd like to have the option of working my muscles now and then. I don't have weights at home, and things like push-ups or the like simply don't keep me interested.
Cost. The biggest disadvantage is cost. The gym I actually would likely join, if I made the decision to move forward and if the gym looked in good shape, would be $20 per month. There are no up front fees.
Accessibility. The one benefit of having the bike in my basement was that I couldn't use the excuse of having to drive. Going to a gym would require a drive. It is worth pointing out that the main reason I passed on the Groupon deal was because the gym was about 15 minutes away, whereas the one that I like is only about a 5 minute drive. This might seem negligable, but that's 20 minutes of driving per day that could easily serve as an excuse. The 5 minute away gym is practically on my way to work, as well.
Routine. I've decided that if I were to go, I would likely go in the morning before work. Now, I'm an early bird as it is, so this would require getting up a little earlier than I do right now. Ever since my cat died, I have been able to set my alarm about 20 minutes later (I used to have to give her fluids), so I would go back to that time, maybe a little earlier. It would also likely involve me 'getting ready' (showering and dressing) at the gym and going right to work. I'd probably want to test these changes, but the gym I am considering has said that they'd happily let me try it out.
We're going away for another camping trip around Labor Day, so I'm not going to do anything after that. The gym I'm considering currently has a special where they are offering a four month membership for $75, and I'm thinking of giving that a whirl if they'll honor it after I get back (the conversations I've had with them on Facebook and on the phone indicate that they're pretty laid back, so I'll remain hopeful). That would give me a membership through the end of the year, and if it works out, I'd happily continue, but if not, that's not a whole lot to be out.
I know there are some who say that they'll never join a gym, and others who believe in it so long as you use it. I am obviously on the second side. I've been a member of various gyms through college and in my 20's. The best successes I've had in terms of going regularly was when they were close by. The main reason I dropped out of two of them were because it simply didn't seem worth it to spend almost as much time driving as I would spend working out.
I'm thinking it might be worth a try again. What do you think?

Ivanhoe Mines announces a new
Mineral Resource estimate for the Kipushi Mine that increases
zinc-rich Measured and Indicated Resources by 16%
and copper-rich Measured and Indicated Resources by 40%
Zinc-rich Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources
increased to 11.8 million tonnes at 35.34% zinc,
containing 9.2 billion pounds of zinc, 8.7 million ounces of silver
and 24.4 million ounces of germanium
In addition, copper-rich Measured and Indicated
Mineral Resources increased to 2.3 million tonnes
at 4.03% copper, containing 204 million pounds of copper,
1.6 million ounces silver and 1.4 million ounces germanium
Southern Zinc now confirmed as significant new, high-value,
poly-metallic zone
New resource estimate to be incorporated into the pending
Definitive Feasibility Study
KIPUSHI, DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO – Robert Friedland, Executive Chairman of Ivanhoe Mines (TSX: IVN; OTCQX: IVPAF), and Lars-Eric Johansson, Chief Executive Officer, announced today that an independently prepared estimate has resulted in a significant increase in Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources at the company's high-grade, Kipushi zinc-copper-silver-germanium mine.
The new Mineral Resource estimate is the first update to be issued for Kipushi since Ivanhoe Mines published its initial, independent NI 43-101 estimate in January 2016.
The new Mineral Resource estimate has increased Kipushi's Measured and Indicated zinc-rich resourcesby 16%, from 10.2 million tonnes to 11.8 million tonnes, with an increase in zinc grade from 34.89% to 35.34%. In addition, the mine's Measured and Indicated copper-rich resources have increased by 40% from 1.6 million tonnes to 2.3 million tonnes, with a slight increase in the copper grade from 4.01% to 4.03%.
Highlights of this updated estimate, prepared by the MSA Group, of Johannesburg, South Africa, in compliance with CIM definition standards, are:
Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources, primarily in the Big Zinc Zone, have increased to 11.78 million tonnes at grades of 35.34% zinc, 0.80% copper, 23 grams per tonne (g/t) silver and 64 g/t germanium, at a 7% zinc cut-off – containing an estimated 9.2 billion pounds of zinc.
The zinc grade of Kipushi's Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources is more than twice as high as the world's next-highest-grade zinc project, independently ranked by Wood Mackenzie, an international industry research and consulting group, based on contained zinc (Figure 1).
Zinc-rich Inferred Mineral Resources total an additional 1.14 million tonnes at grades of 33.77% zinc, 1.24% copper, 12 g/t silver and 62 g/t germanium. The Inferred Mineral Resources are contained partly in the Big Zinc Zone and partly in the Southern Zinc Zone.
Kipushi's copper-rich Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources contained in the adjacent Fault Zone, Fault Zone Splay and Série Récurrente Zone total an additional 2.29 million tonnes at grades of 4.03% copper, 2.85% zinc, 21 g/t silver and 19 g/t germanium, at a 1.5% copper cut-off – containing 144 million pounds of copper. Copper-rich Inferred Mineral Resources in these zones total an additional 0.44 million tonnes at grades of 3.89% copper, 10.77% zinc, 19 g/t silver and 55 g/t germanium.
Ivanhoe's 2017 drilling program has demonstrated that zinc and copper mineralization of the Kipushi system remain open laterally and at depth.
The new Mineral Resource estimate incorporates Ivanhoe's second phase of underground drilling at Kipushi that was completed late last year, with a total of 9,706 metres drilled in 58 holes. Eight holes were drilled for metallurgy, 31 holes in the Southern Zinc and Big Zinc, five holes in the Nord Riche and 14 holes in the Série Récurrente. The updated Mineral Resource will be used in the preparation of the Kipushi Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), which is expected to be finalized later this year or early in 2019.
The DFS will update and refine the findings of the Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) issued last December. Similar to the PFS, the DFS will focus on the initial mining of Kipushi's Big Zinc Zone. The planned return to production would establish Kipushi as the world's highest-grade, major zinc mine.
Infill drilling establishes Southern Zinc as high-value, poly-metallic zone
Infill and confirmation drilling in the Southern Zinc Zone has confirmed the high tenor of this mineralized zone (tenor is the percentage of minerals that is actual metal to be extracted), which is characterized by high zinc, copper, lead and silver grades. The poly-metallic style of mineralization in the Southern Zinc is very similar to historical Kipushi production, with a clear zonation of copper-rich to zinc-rich zones. Using a zinc cut-off of 7%, the Southern Zinc Zone contains 0.88 million tonnes of Indicated Mineral resources at a grade of 24.5% zinc, 2.97% copper, 1.95% lead and 75 g/t silver. Additional Inferred Mineral resources in this zone are 0.16 million tonnes at a grade of 24.37% zinc, 1.64% copper, 1.2% lead and 38 g/t silver.
Mr. Friedland said that the new resource estimate is very positive for mine planning purposes, adding another 1.6 million tonnes of Measured and Indicated zinc-rich resources and, at the same time, improving the overall zinc grade of the resources.
"We have always believed that Kipushi held the potential to host significantly more high-grade zinc, copper, silver and germanium resources than were initially reported in the mineral inventory when we acquired our 68% interest in the mine in 2011," Mr. Friedland said.
"Kipushi operated for more than 60 years as a high-grade copper mine, with significant germanium production, before it was placed on care-and-maintenance in the 1990s. With continued exploration success, we are confident Kipushi could remain in production for at least several more decades.
"While our initial mine plan focuses on mining Kipushi's exceptionally high-grade Big Zinc Deposit, the adjacent Fault Splay and Southern Zinc zones are compelling, near-term development targets as they have thick, zinc-rich mineralization zones grading up to 45% zinc. In addition, the copper-rich zones offer further opportunities to expand and diversify the mine plan once production recommences," Mr. Friedland added.
Given the significant, very-high-grade zinc resource at Kipushi – which is rich in potential by-product credits including copper, silver and germanium – and the ongoing exploration campaign at Kipushi, Ivanhoe and the Gécamines technical team are continuing to investigate additional downstream processing options.
Germanium is a strategic metal that is a key component of fibre-optic systems, infrared optics, high-efficiency solar cell applications and light-emitting diodes. The current spot price of germanium is approximately US$1,900 a kilogram (US$54 an ounce).
New estimate enhances the Mineral Resources available for Kipushi's Definitive Feasibility Study
The new Mineral Resource estimate was prepared in accordance with the 2014 CIM definition standards, incorporated by reference into Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
The new estimate was based on the results of the 58 new drill holes completed at Kipushi by Ivanhoe Mines in 2017, 84 drill holes completed by Ivanhoe Mines prior to 2016 and an additional 107 historical holes drilled by Gécamines. Mineral Resource estimates were completed below the 1,150-metre-level on the Big Zinc Zone, Southern Zinc Zone, Fault Zone, Fault Zone Splay and Série Récurrente Zone. The Mineral Resources were categorized either as zinc-rich resources or copper-rich resources, depending on the most abundant metal. The Big Zinc and Southern Zinc zones have been tabulated using zinc cut-offs and are shown in Table 1; the Fault Zone, the Fault Zone Splay and Série Récurrente Zone have been tabulated using copper cut-offs and are shown in Table 2.
For the zinc-rich zones, the Mineral Resource is reported at a base-case cut-off grade of 7.0% zinc and the copper-rich zones at a base-case cut-off grade of 1.5% copper. Given the considerable revenue that could be obtained from the additional metals in each zone, MSA considers that mineralization at these cut-off grades will satisfy reasonable prospects for economic extraction.
The Kipushi Mine is adjacent to the town of Kipushi, approximately 30 kilometres southwest of Lubumbashi and less than one kilometre from the Zambian border. The Kipushi Mine is operated by Kipushi Corporation (KICO), a joint venture between Ivanhoe Mines (68%) and Gécamines (32%), the DRC's state-owned mining company.
MOU signed with underground mining contractor Byrnecut
In December 2017, KICO signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Byrnecut Offshore Proprietary Limited (Byrnecut), of Perth, Australia. The MOU relates to the potential engagement of Byrnecut to provide underground mining services at Kipushi, including cost estimation, contractor management, operational readiness and operational services.
The planned primary mining method for the Big Zinc Deposit in the PFS is sublevel long-hole, open stoping, with cemented backfill. The crown pillars are expected to be mined once adjacent stopes are backfilled using a pillar-retreat mining method. The Big Zinc Deposit is expected to be accessed via the existing decline and without any significant new development. The main levels are planned to be at 60-metre vertical intervals, with sublevels at 30-metre intervals.

Information Gaps and Shadow Banking
Virginia Law Review, 2017, Forthcoming
Columbia Law and Economics Working Paper No. 529
75 Pages Posted: 21 Mar 2016 Last revised: 23 Mar 2017

Date Written: March 22, 2017
This Article argues that information gaps—pockets of information that are pertinent and knowable but not currently known—are a byproduct of shadow banking and a meaningful source of systemic risk. It lays the foundation for this claim by juxtaposing the regulatory regime governing the shadow banking system with the incentives of the market participants who populate that system. Like banks, shadow banks rely heavily on short-term debt claims designed to obviate the need for the holder to engage in any meaningful information gathering or analysis. The securities laws that prevail in the capital markets, however, both presume and depend on providers of capital to perform these functions. In synthesizing insights from diverse bodies of literature and situating those understandings against the regulatory architecture, this Article provides one of the first comprehensive accounts of how the information-related incentives of equity and money claimants explain many core features of securities and banking regulation.
The Article's main theoretical contribution is to provide a new explanation for the inherent fragility of institutions that rely on money claims. The existing literature typically focuses on either coordination problems among depositors or information asymmetries between depositors and bank managers to explain bank runs. This Article provides a third explanation for why reliance on short-term debt leads to fragility, one which complements the established paradigms. First, information gaps increase the probability of panic by increasing the range of signals that can cast doubt on whether short-term debt that market participants had been treating like "money" remain sufficiently information insensitive to merit such treatment. Second, information gaps impede the market and regulatory responses that can dampen the effects of a shock once panic takes hold. Evidence from the 2007–2009 financial crisis is consistent with the Article's claims regarding the ways shadow banking creates information gaps and how those gaps contribute to fragility.

Megadeth's Dave Mustaine Turned On To Country Music By Daughter
. (Classic Rock) Megadeth mainman Dave Mustaine has enjoyed his introduction to country music via his daughter. He says: "I usually listen to jazz and classical in my car.
"When my wife and kids are in the car it depends on which kid. My son likes metal and my daughter likes country – you're always listening to different ideas.
"Country right now is like old-school rock with a bunch of nasally singers on it; it's kind of cool. It kind of rocks – plus, they're using all our old staging from the 80s." More rock news.

Hey everyone, I have been using this project on my raspberry pi for the last few years with little issues and have finally gone down the route of using a video grabber for my other devices. I have the Easycap USBTV007 chipset and Hyperion just seems to throw Error 2 every time I try to start Hyperion using it. But if I change my condo back to use the internal grabber, then my lights work fine. Is there a step I may have missed or something I should try? Thanks in advance!
I have tried lsusb command and this is what I get, does this mean the seller sold me a fake USBTV007?
Devices 001, 002 and 003 seem to show microsystems corp and Linux foundation. However I'm not seeing USBTV007 pop up like others do. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have also tried the the command ' ls -lh /dev/ ' and cannot find video0 in the outputted list. Does all of this mean perhaps Iv been sold a fake USBTV007?
sometimes the power supply is to low... has yours more then 2 amp?
Thanks TPmodding for the reply I am fairly certain my supply is a 2.5A and I have activated max usb current in my raspberry pi config.
can you post a screenshot from "lsusb"
Ok I am glad to hear it is not something I have done wrong will keep trying other grabbers! Thanks for your help TPmodding.
did you try plugging grabber on the PC ?
So I finally got hold of another Easycap and it would seem this one is a real one and the last one was a fake or faulty. I can now see this when it is plugged in.
I can also see video0 in the list when I issue the command 'ls -lh /dev/'; which is another good sign. However since changing the config to use the grabber, now I receive the following error constantly, even if I revert the config back to use the internal grabber. Which is odd as HyperCon is generating the config itself, so how would it be creating a syntax error through auto generation? I would expect this sort of error if I had put the config together myself.
this is the whole config?
Please check your config here for validation.
it stops in the middle of your led settings?
do you have only 68 leds?
