“challenges And Benefits Of Electrifying Europe’s Transportation” – In 2020, there were ten million electric cars on the world’s roads. It was a pivotal year for the electrification of mass-market transportation. Electric vehicle sales accounted for 4.6% of global vehicle sales. The availability of electric car models has increased. New initiatives have been launched for critical battery technology. And, this progress has been made in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic and the associated economic downturn and lockdown.
Over the past decade, various policies to support electric vehicles (EVs) have been established in major markets, which has contributed to a large expansion of electric vehicle models.
“challenges And Benefits Of Electrifying Europe’s Transportation”
But the challenge remains enormous. Achieving the trajectory corresponding to the sustainable development scenario requires placing 230 million electric vehicles on the world’s roads by 2030.
A Revolution At Sea
For EVs to realize their full potential to combat climate change, the 2020s must be the decade of mass adoption of lightweight electric vehicles. In addition, specific policy support and model expansion for the medium and heavy vehicle segments will be critical to reducing emissions and making progress towards climate goals.
Significant fiscal incentives have fueled the initial uptake of light electric vehicles (LDVs) and helped scale up the EV manufacturing and battery industries. The measures – primarily purchase subsidies and/or car purchase and registration tax concessions – were intended to reduce the price gap between conventional cars. Such measures were implemented as early as the 1990s in Norway, 1 in the United States in 2008, and in China in 2014.
The standards have increased the role of electric vehicles to meet the standards. Today, more than 85% of car sales in the world are subject to such standards. CO
Emissions standards in the EU have played an important role in driving sales of electric vehicles, which saw the biggest annual increase in 2020, reaching 2.1 million. Some jurisdictions have used mandatory targets for EV sales for decades, such as California2 and China since 2017.
Large Scale Bus Electrification: New Challenges For It Systems
Convenient and affordable publicly available chargers will become increasingly important as the scale of electrification grows. To address this problem, governments have supported EV charging infrastructure through measures such as direct investment to install publicly available chargers or incentives for EV owners to install charging points at home. In some locations, building codes may require new construction or substantial remodeling to include charging points, such as in apartment buildings and retail establishments.
Efforts by cities to offer improved value for EVs have spurred sales even outside the city. Such measures include the strategic deployment of charging infrastructure and the introduction of preferential/prohibited circulation or access schemes, such as low and zero emission zones or differentiated circulation charges. Such measures have had a major impact on electric vehicle sales in Oslo and a number of Chinese cities.
Making the 2020s a decade of electrification will require more ambition and action among both market leaders and followers. For markets that have shown significant progress in the 2010s, the main focus in 2021 and beyond should be the introduction and tightening of regulatory instruments, as well as expansion. Examples include the EU CO2 emissions regulation for cars and vans, China’s New Energy Vehicle (NEV) mandate or California’s Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) mandate.
Near-term efforts should focus on continuing to make EVs competitive and phasing out purchase subsidies as sales expand. This could be done through differentiated taxation of vehicles and fuels based on their environmental performance and by strengthening regulatory measures that would allow the clean car industry to flourish.
An Assessment Of Energy System Transformation Pathways To Achieve Net Zero Carbon Dioxide Emissions In Switzerland
In the long term, realizing the full potential of EVs to help reduce vehicle emissions requires integrating EVs into power systems, decarbonizing electricity generation, deploying charging infrastructure, and manufacturing sustainable batteries.
Countries that currently deploy a limited number of EVs can take advantage of lessons learned and advances in automotive and battery technology to promote EV production and uptake. Product innovation and expertise developed in the charging services industry will also benefit emerging economies. But they will also need to significantly tighten fuel economy and emissions standards. Developing economies with large markets for used imported vehicles can use policy levers to access electric vehicle models at attractive prices, although they should pay particular attention to the impact on electricity grids. #anchor3## 4
To date, more than 20 countries have announced a complete phase-out of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicle sales over the next 10-30 years, including emerging economies such as Cape Verde, Costa Rica and Sri Lanka. Moreover, more than 120 countries (representing about 85% of the global road vehicle fleet, excluding two/three-wheelers) have announced economy-wide net zero emissions pledges, aiming to reach net zero within the next few decades.
Policy attention and action must be extended to other modes of transport, especially commercial vehicles – light commercial vehicles, medium and heavy trucks and buses – as they have a growing and disproportionate impact on energy consumption, air pollution and carbon dioxide.
Benefits And Challenges Of Offshore Platform Electrification
Exhaust. Medium and heavy vehicles represent 5% of all four-wheeled vehicles in circulation, but almost 30% of CO2.
Exhaust. Advances in batteries have led to the rapid commercialization of more and more models in heavier weight segments and with increasing range over the past few years.
In 2020, California was the first to introduce a ZEV sales requirement for heavy-duty vehicles. Expanded clean truck regulations will come into effect in 2024. The Netherlands and a number of other countries are implementing zero-emission commercial vehicle zones and pioneering efforts to deploy them. Although this is a ‘hard to reduce’ sector and there are competing decarbonisation pathways (including hydrogen and biofuels), the electrification of medium and heavy vehicles is increasingly recognized as a promising way to reduce both local pollutants and CO.
Exhaust. Electrification of HDVs will require policy support and commercial deployment as passenger vehicles in the 2010s. Electric buses are already making their way into major cities around the world, supported by national and local policies targeting air pollution. Policy measures to promote electric buses are diverse; These may include competitive tendering, green public procurement programs, purchase subsidies and direct support for charging infrastructure, as well as effective pollutant emission standards.

Given their huge numbers and popularity, the electrification of two/three wheelers in developing economies is central to the decarbonisation of transport in the near term. China is leading the way by banning two/three wheeler ICE versions in several cities.
Only countries that have an ICE ban or electrification target, or have net zero emissions by law or proposed legislation. Those with only net-zero emissions policy documents, e.g. Japan and China are not included. The European Union is a collective commitment of 27 member states. Some individual countries also have net-zero emissions pledges in law or proposed legislation (Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Luxembourg, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the Netherlands). Targets reflect status as of April 20, 2021. Electrified vehicles here include battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), depending on each country’s definitions. ZEV = Zero Emission Vehicle (BEVs, PHEVs and FCEVs).
Electric car sales broke all records in 2020. They increased by 40% compared to 2019. This is particularly noteworthy as sales of all vehicle types are down 16% in 2020, reflecting pandemic-related conditions.
Sales of electric vehicles have been bolstered by existing policy support and boosted by Covid-related stimulus measures. Before the pandemic, many countries were already developing and reinforcing e-mobility strategies with key policy measures such as fiscal incentives and vehicle decarbonisation.
Sender ’25: Block Island Wind Farm Shows That Rhode Island Still Needs Nuclear
Emission standards are stricter. Purchase incentives increased in early 2020, especially in Germany, France and Italy. As a result, sales of electric vehicles in Europe were 55% higher in the first half of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.
In the rest of the world, electric car sales have been hit by the economic crisis, with sales falling from 2019 levels, although not as sharply as conventional cars.
Additional stimulus measures related to Covid-19 further boosted sales of electric vehicles from mid-2020. From July to December, sales exceeded 2019 levels every month in all major markets, despite the second wave of the pandemic.5
These stimulus measures differed significantly from those taken during the financial crisis of 2008-09. First of all, special attention was focused on increasing the uptake of electric and hybrid vehicles. Second, a number of countries have taken a more integrated approach to the transport sector by supporting charging infrastructure, public transport and non-motorized mobility. Measures to stimulate electrification have primarily taken the approach of purchase incentives (or delaying the phasing out of subsidies) and EV-specific cash. It is worth noting that Germany did not provide subsidies for conventional vehicles in the support package for the automotive sector.

Approaches were more integrated into the broader context of clean energy transition and EV deployment commitments than approaches taken before the Covid-19 crisis. In a number of countries, they have been confirmed in 2020 through new commitments to reach net-zero emissions by mid-century.
Additionally, continued declines in battery costs, the wider availability of electric models, the adoption of electric vehicles by fleet operators, and the enthusiasm of electric vehicle buyers have created fertile ground for the electric vehicle market in 2020. These factors have been added

Amy Sheridan loves Kanye West’s tweets so much, she embrodiers then and then sells them on Etsy.
Tweets may only be 140 characters long but in the world of stiching, that’s a whole lot of thread.
Just ask Amy Sheridan, of Santa Maria, Calif., a Twitter fanatic who has turned three of Kanye West’s tweets into framed embroideries. The limited edition pieces were a huge hit on Etsy where all 27 of them have sold out. They were also featured on the Huffington Post today.
“Regardless of whether or not you’re a fan of Kanye’s music, his award show outbursts or his new fashion line, you have to admit that his Twitter is pure comedy gold,” wrote Sheridan on Etsy.
“Really, though, Kanye’s just saying what we’re all thinking – who amongst us hasn’t lamented the inability to procure a decent cherub-decorated rug or, at one time or another, needed to apologize to Taylor Swift?”
Sheridan has agreed to an interview with the Daily Dot later this afternoon. In the meantime, here are some of her embroideries.

Unilever is looking for a buyer for its Skippy peanut butter brand, which may fetch $300 million to $400 million, as it pares its food business to focus on faster-growing health and beauty products, said two people with knowledge of the matter.
The company has hired Lazard Ltd. to help conduct the sale and started shopping the business this week, said the people, who asked not to be named because the plans are private. In the U.S. peanut butter market, Skippy is a distant second to J.M. Smucker Co.'s Jif.
"As part of a recently completed strategic review, we decided to explore various options for the Skippy business in the U.S. and Canada, including but not limited to a potential sale," Anita Larsen, a spokeswoman for Unilever, said in a phone interview.
The brand's creative ad agency is BFG9000, which has other Unilever food brands, including Wish-Bone and Ragu.
Unilever, based in Rotterdam and London, is pruning some of the brands and businesses that it doesn't feel are core to its portfolio, one of the people said. In August, the company completed the sale of its P.F. Chang's and Bertolli frozen meals businesses to ConAgra Foods for $267 million, and in 2010 sold food businesses in Italy, Brazil and the U.S.
"We have seen Unilever in the past being an excellent seller of assets and would not be surprised to see an even higher value for the proceeds" than $400 million, Marco Gulpers, an Amsterdam-based analyst at ING, said in a note to clients today. Judi Mackey, a spokeswoman for Lazard, didn't respond to an e-mail seeking comment.
Unilever's food business was responsible for 30% of the company's sales last year and 39% of adjusted operating profit. About half of Unilever's food revenue comes from Europe, where sales have been hurt by declining consumer confidence. Half of personal-care sales come from emerging markets, according to Berenberg Bank estimates. In 2011, food was Unilever's only segment to post a decline in sales by volume.
"It makes sense," said Bryan Gildenberg, an analyst with London-based consulting firm Kantar Retail. "Unilever has been public about their desire to position themselves as more of a personal-care company than a food company." Unilever rose 0.1% to 27.85 euros at 10:46 a.m. in Amsterdam trading, boosting its gain this year to 4.8%. The food business doesn't include Unilever's ice cream and tea brands, which are housed in the refreshments unit.
Skippy had revenue of $300 million and 18.1% of the U.S. peanut butter market, not including sales at Walmart, for the year ended Sept. 9, according to market researcher SymphonyIRI Group. Jif had 34% of the market during that time, SymphonyIRI said.
Skippy was founded in 1933. The brand hired actress Annette Funicello to appear in television commercials in the 1970s. While the brand is iconic, competing with Smucker's in that business is tough, Mr. Gildenberg said. Jif, a former Procter & Gamble brand, has been the top-selling peanut butter since 1981, and has maintained its lead by introducing varieties with lower sodium and reduced fat. ConAgra and Kraft Foods Group also sell peanut butter in the U.S. under the Peter Pan and Planters brands, respectively.
"There's a chance that the brand is worth more to someone else," Mr. Gildenberg said. "There are more fun things to be than an underscaled competitor to Smucker's."

Proposed redevelopment of the Broadmarsh shopping centre in Nottingham could result in around 5,000 permanent jobs created in the city over the coming years.
Westfield, the property group that owns the site with joint-venture partner Royal Mail Pension Fund, has today unveiled investment plans worth £500 million that would see the retail hub transformed with a new design and the arrival of many new occupants.
Nottingham City Council is currently considering the revised plans, and the local community will be able to offer their opinion on the development at a public exhibition between Thursday March 24th and Sunday March 28th.
Core components of the scheme have always included the arrival of two department stores and a new transport hub, but Westfield was made to revise earlier plans to ensure the development enhances connections with the city and is in-keeping with the city centre.
Peter Miller, Chief Operating Officer at Westfield, said it was frustrating that economic problems over the last few years have delayed the scheme, but he is now encouraged about the renewed demand and impetus from retailers looking for space in Nottingham.
“This scheme is vital to unlocking the regeneration of the south side and will provide a catalyst for further investment in this important gateway to the city,” he added.
Earlier this year Hollister and Cult committed to opening new stores in the new look Broadmarsh, and they will be part of the first phase of the major redevelopment set to be completed by next spring.
It is estimated that the wider transformation of the shopping centre, if backed by the local authority, will be concluded by 2015.
As consumers in the east midlands get set for changes to their shopping landscape, a public consultation for a new retail development in the West Midlands has just ended.
Birmingham City Council and Network Rail are currently proposing major construction at the New Street train station and Pallasades shopping centre site, which will result in the building of a modern-looking four-storey 250,000 sq ft John Lewis department store.
Assuming there are no objections to the £100 million regeneration project, the council claims that it will create 900 new jobs when opened in 2014.

Preparing for the Mobile Transformation in Money Movement
If you live in an emerging economy, you’re more likely to own a mobile phone than to have a bank account. Given this reality, financial institutions in these markets are using mobile banking and payment solutions to extend access to financial services to underserved consumers.
In the U.S. and other developed countries – with an abundance of bank branches – mobile banking is seen as a convenient new channel and a complement to traditional banking relationships. However, in emerging economies where formal banking reaches only about 37 percent of the population, mobile banking and payment solutions are a lifeline for consumers and a cost-effective channel for financial institutions. According to McKinsey & Company, for every 10,000 people, developing countries have one bank branch and one ATM – but 5,100 mobile phones.
Limited access to financial services can lead to significant and costly consequences, including an inability to save or borrow funds to help grow a business, send children to better schools or purchase a home. A cash-based economy also often means transactions that are not secure or reliable, and may take an inordinate amount of time to complete.
Those without access to financial services are not part of the formal economy, with far-reaching implications for their governments. Tracking how money moves, administering benefits, collecting tax revenue to subsidize social programs, and preventing the funding of illegal activities are directly tied to financial inclusion.
“When governments are able to electronically transfer benefits to those in need via a mobile device, it’s revolutionary,” says Sunil Sachdev, managing director, Payments, International Group, Fiserv. “In developing markets with poor infrastructure and where people just don’t have time to stand in a queue, the mobile bill payment value proposition is also quite powerful – positively affecting not only the person making the payment, but also the biller and the bank branch network.”
Sachdev will discuss ways to reach these untapped consumers at GSMA NFC and Mobile Money Summit, joining international telecom and payments executives focused on key developing markets. And while emerging markets offer greenfield opportunities with the potential to transform economies, there are similar opportunities and implications for developed countries, including the U.S. market where 17 million adults don’t have a checking or savings account.
“With increased regulation and compressed margins for financial institutions globally, enfranchising more consumers into the banking system through a mobile payments infrastructure is a growth opportunity,” says Sachdev. “Reliance on carrier-independent, bank-centric mobile banking and payments solutions will help financial institutions prepare for the inevitability of a global mobile payments boom.”
At the GSMA NFC and Mobile Money Summit, Fiserv is also hosting an educational session for financial institutions on the four pillars of money movement: paying yourself, paying other people, paying billers, and paying merchants and retailers. Sachdev and Ginger Schmeltzer, senior vice president for Emerging Payments at Fiserv, will outline how financial institutions can prepare for a mobile payments transformation that is poised to change how consumers and businesses transact globally, in both emerging and developed markets.

Craft beer business in central Iowa keeps bubbling up
Iowa's craft beer business continues to grow, which has some breweries dealing with a bit of a good problem: more demand than they can supply.
Those with Peace Tree Brewery say they like to think they're offering folks a little bit of localism on tap. Its founders launched the craft brewery 11 years ago in Knoxville and then opened the Des Moines location a few years later.
Over time, Taylor Evans, taproom manager at Peace Tree Brewery, said they've seen demand grow. Now grocery stores and restaurants are carrying their suds.
"We've run into a crunch with our Knoxville production facility," Evans said. "Market demand has grown at such an exceptional rate that it's been hard for us to keep up."
The brewery announced this week it would partner with Coralville-based Back Pocket Brewing to brew its flagship Blonde Fatale.
Kelsey Seay, associate director of the Iowa Breweries Guild, said expansion is hardly unique. Iowa's craft breweries keep bubbling up.
"We've seen a lot of people adding onto their systems, their locations and events and things like that, too," Seay said. "Back when Millstream opened in the '80s, there were a handful of breweries. We're up to 97, I want to say."
People want to get more in touch with what they're drinking, she said.
"You think of that farm to table movement. It's farm to glass here," Seay said.
But is the growth sustainable?
"We have people say, 'Oh, is that too much saturation?' And honestly, no," Seay said. "You look at places like Colorado, where Denver has 70 or 80 in the city limits itself, and that's how much we have in the state. So there's a lot of room to grow."
Peace Tree said it plans to use some of that freed up capacity to launch two new beers in 2019: a Coffee Stout and an Orange Gose.

Dark and Darker made some noise earlier this year when its timed demo dominated the Steam charts, with players swarming to the fantasy spin on the extraction PvP format. It wasn’t long after that breakout success that we learned that there was more than meets the eye with Dark and Darker and its developer, Ironmace Games. Publisher Nexon accused Ironmace of stealing stole code from the company and using it to build the popular new game. Now, Dark and Darker has been delisted from Steam following a cease and desist from Nexon.
Over the weekend, Dark and Darker was delisted from Steam. According to a report from PC Gamer, this is due to a cease and desist and DMCA from Nexon. Earlier this month, Ironmace Games’ office was raided after Nexon accused the company of stealing code and using it to create the game. Ironmace was founded by former developers at Nexon, and they’ve made it very clear that the two sides did not separate on good terms. It’s also been said that Nexon was working on a project similar to what Darker and Darker ended up becoming, but scrapped it.
While Dark and Darker hasn’t been playable since its last playtest ended in February, the game’s Steam page and assets had still been available to view on the platform. Over the last couple of days, those assets were pulled, and then the game was eventually pulled altogether.
While the studio assured fans that there was “nothing to worry about” after the Nexon news came out earlier this month, Ironmace Games has yet to provide a statement on Dark and Darker’s delisting. If there are any updates to the situation, we’ll be sure to update this article.
Donovan Erskine posted a new article, Dark and Darker delisted on Steam following cease and desist from Nexon
Dark and Darker is currently in development, and is scheduled to be released for Microsoft Windows in December 2023. The game has been praised for its dark and atmospheric setting, its challenging gameplay, and its cooperative multiplayer. https://www.g4mmo.com/

Gucci announces fur free policy
Gucci’s President & CEO Marco Bizzarri announced its fur-free policy on Wednesday, October 11th during the 2017 Kering Talk at The London College of Fashion.
It is excellent news that more and more luxury brands are taking the decision to change their practices regarding the use of fur. Gucci’s decision has the power to transform the fashion industry significantly.
So much to celebrate !
Armani, Hugo Boss, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Dries Van Noten, Stella Mac Cartney and now Gucci all have a strict “no fur” policy and / or only use faux fur, if there’s got to be fur. Faux remains the only responsible type of fur available on the market.
Fashion is a vehicle for a change via sustainable, socially- driven practices.
I would find it more difficult to be part of a cycle where animals would have to be killed constantly. (Hussein Chalayan - designer)
Other fashion brands although still using animal fur, have made a greater place to the faux fur material in their recent collections which is also very exciting.
During the last London Fashion week, all Burberry’s furs were faux (image below) and is officially reconsidering the use of real fur in their collections.
Miu Miu also used faux fur as shown below.
Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors (image below), to name a few, have created incredible faux furs lately.
Faux fur is mostly known to be a life-friendly material, but faux fur also brings environmental benefits.
It is documented that the production of faux fur is much less environmentally damaging than sustaining thousands of fur factory farms.
It is likely that other designers decide to follow the lead of Gucci.

The development team is going to have a brand new theme for players to win over the weekend with Luigi’s Mansion 3 event starting this weekend. The fun begins on Oct. 25 and goes until the 28.
At this time, we don’t have an image of the theme, but it’s likely going to modify the entire screen to look like the horror-filled mansion of the game. This event is the eighth Maximus cup Tetris 99 has had, which features a new theme and a new round of competitive Tetris action for players who are eager to test their skills against others online.
To take part in the event, players need to win over 100 event points throughout the weekend. How do you earn those event points? All players need to do is play an online game during the event, and they’re going to rack up points based on their performance of their matches. The better they do, the more points they’re going to earn to make it easier to get Luigi’s Mansion 3 theme.
For those eager to take part in the event, you do need to have access to Nintendo’s online subscription service. If you don’t, you won’t be able to jump into the game.
Make sure you log into the game over the weekend to take part in the event. It likely won’t take players too many games to get their hands on this theme, but it’s going to be plenty of fun for any Nintendo fan excited about the release of Luigi’s Mansion 3, which is going to come out for the Nintendo Switch at the end of Oct. 31.

Recognition of the best brands
This year, it has been 26 years since marketing and communications authorities have launched the Superbrands program in the UK. The goal was twofold: to put outstanding brands in the spotlight and to set examples to follow. The program has become known all over the world since its launch, and today the title ’Superbrands’ is a special qualification in nearly 90 countries. The jury has a prominent, responsible role in all countries, so only recognized professionals can be part of the committee.
Business Superbrands is celebrating its 14th birthday this year
The most outstanding brands of the B2B sector are highlighted, ie. Hungarian companies and brands that are related not only to consumers, but also to businesses and organizations. Based on the Bisnode database, and taking into account the recommendations of major Hungarian professional organizations and associations, the list of about 4,000 brands will be submitted to the committee after financial and professional screening. This list includes the most profitable Hungarian companies, as well as smaller companies that are considered to be the best business, as well as their outstanding communication and branding practices in Hungary.
’We are responsible for our own health, and our future also depends on the awareness and example we pass on to the younger generations’ says Dr Ferenc Jójárt, the owner of our company.
Showing an example of building a successfull brand
Superbrands recognition sets the direction for emerging market players and set an example for domestic brands to succeed in brand building. The award is a positive feedback for our company’s brand that highlights the best on a professional basis. The award committee is made up of renowned experts in the field, whose decision attest to the success and credibility of the award to date.

Berkshire India, a majority owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, has appointed Metal Communications as its brand building and marketing communications partner for its Indian foray. Berkshire India is entering the insurance sales and distribution space as a corporate agent for Bajaj Allianz General Insurance.
Berkshire India will sell insurance products through its online portal berkshireinsurance.com and telemarketing channel, beginning with auto insurance. Berkshire Hathaway has a successful online and direct distribution model in the US and is looking to replicate that success in India.
Arun Balakrishnan, chief executive officer, Berkshire India, said, “We interacted with advertising agencies in India and zeroed in on Metal as the team brought in the right degree of enthusiasm backed with skill sets. We feel that building a brand in the online insurance industry requires an out of the box approach and feel that the agency would be the right partner for that.”
In its latest new business acquisition, Metal will partner with Berkshire India to build and grow the brand in the distribution of motor insurance space to begin with. The agency will be responsible for all brand building and marketing communication and services work for Berkshire India.
Ambarish Ray, vice president, Metal Communications, added, "This is a great opportunity for Metal to not only work with one of the world’s most admired companies but also tackle some unique challenges in the sector. Traditionally, insurance has been sold in India and not bought. With its direct model and best practices, Mr Buffett’s company is all set to change the game and we are thrilled to be a part of it.”

Wi-Fi is fast moving beyond its initial role as an overlay to traditional wired local area networks (Lans) and becoming an integral business networking technology in its own right.
A recent survey by In-Stat/MDR found that this is particularly evident when comparing survey respondents whose businesses have deployed wireless Lans with those whose businesses are planning to do so in the near future.
Respondents indicated that planned wireless Lans will be accessible to a larger percentage of employees, and consist of a greater number of access points than current wireless Lans.
Respondents are also planning larger budgets for future wireless Lan deployments, compared to the mean capital expenditure budgets for current deployments.
However, it is "strongly evident" that security is the top concern among all the segments of survey respondents, and should be a top concern for wireless Lan equipment vendors, according to In-Stat/MDR analyst Sam Lucero.
Security concerns were cited as the top reason for respondents not to deploy wireless Lans in their networks, narrowly edging out 'no need for wireless Lans'.
Not surprisingly, these respondents cited enhanced security as the top consideration for vendors attempting to change users' minds about not deploying wireless Lans.
Likewise, security was the top concern of respondents who have already deployed wireless Lans, and was by far the top concern for those considering wireless Lans in the future.
In-Stat/MDR also found that vendors such as Linksys, D-Link and Netgear, which traditionally focus on consumer and SoHo networking and consumer electronics equipment, have been successful in penetrating even enterprise businesses.
And looking ahead to future wireless Lan purchases, Linksys, D-Link and Netgear are among the key vendors that respondents are actively considering as equipment suppliers, the study found.
Basic network access was by far the most popular use for wireless Lan connectivity.
A majority of respondents who have deployed wireless Lans indicated that they have already implemented voice over wireless Lan or intend to do so in the future.
Wi-Fi/cellular integration in particular will be a "tremendous growth" opportunity for voice over wireless Lan in business, the analyst firm predicted.

Park Electrochemical reports Q1 results
Jul 01, 2004
Park Electrochemical Corp. (NYSE: PKE) reported sales of $58,518,000 for the first quarter ended May 30, 2004 compared to sales from continuing operations of $44,323,000 for the first quarter of last year.
Park reported net earnings of $6,021,000 for the first quarter ended May 30, 2004 compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $1,644,000 for last fiscal year's first quarter ended June 1, 2003. The net loss from continuing operations for last year's first quarter included pre-tax realignment charges of $1,934,000 ($1,058,000 after-tax). The loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes, was $6,807,000 for last fiscal year's first quarter. Net earnings were $6,021,000 for the quarter ended May 30, 2004 compared to a net loss of $8,451,000 for last year's first quarter.
Park's diluted earnings per share were $.30 for the first quarter ended May 30, 2004 compared to a diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $.08 for last year's first quarter. The diluted loss per share from continuing operations before special items was $.03 for last year's first quarter. Diluted earnings per share were $.30 for the quarter ended May 30, 2004 compared to a diluted loss per share of $.43 for last year's first quarter.
Brian Shore, Park's President and CEO, said, "The global markets for our electronic materials products continued to be mixed during our first quarter. As usual, I must remind you that the visibility in our industry has been for many years, and continues to be, very poor. However, it does appear that our industry has begun to slow down to some extent in very recent weeks, particularly in the telecommunications and networking industry segments. Since the current underlying economic fundamentals seem to be relatively positive, the logical conclusion is that this very recent market slow-down is attributable to an industry inventory adjustment. We share our perspective with you regarding the current industry climate with some caution, because our industry has certainly surprised us more than once in the past. In any event, our opinions and beliefs about the short-term trends in the industry have very little impact on how we run our business every day, because, as we have in the past, we continue to run our business from a long-term perspective rather than a short-term perspective. Accordingly, our focus continues to be on growing and expanding our business in Asia and on driving technology throughout the world."

Sterling actually made some muted gains
20 April, 2018
Sterling actually made some muted gains across its major pairs yesterday deposit retail sales falling flat.
With all the bad weather we had over the first quarter of the year, it’s not a surprise that the retail sales were expected to be down from the month before. Things were actually much worse than forecast though with the actual reading coming in at -1.2 percent for the month, opposed to the -0.5 percent forecast. For the year on year figure, we were actually expecting some growth from the previous year with a reading of 2 percent up from 1.5 percent, but it came in at only 1.1 percent.
It seems sterling still had some support though with investors as over the course of the day the pound manage to rally somewhat, gaining half a cent overall against the single currency and half a cent against the greenback, although lost this by close of trade. This was resulted from lower than expected employment data but better than expected manufacturing survey.
That was until Mark Carney’s comments were reported in the evening where he suggested any interest rate rise for the UK would be delayed (further adding to the thinking following the lower inflation figures) while the Brexit process continued, as “major decisions had to be taken” to include how long the implementation (transition) period would be and how the final deal would shape up. The mixed bag of recent data releases also added to the feeling the Bank might need to take a longer-term view on the economy before deciding whether interest rates warranted another boost.
Today is even quieter in the UK and Europe with nothing of note at all except a speech by MPC member Saunders at 10.30am and German Buba President Weidmann at 12.30pm. Apart from that, we go stateside for the rest of the day when we see Canadian retail sales and inflation readings at 1.30pm. The week closes off with some low key speeches from a couple of Fed members in the US but looks like a day of sentiment led trading and possible profit taking against sterling unless you’re looking to send money to Canada of course. If you are, it may be worth trading sooner rather than later in case the eco stats throw up any surprises. With interest rate rises, the main booster for a currency, seemingly dwindling, those with currency to purchase from sterling might be wise to look at taking to plunge sooner rather than later.

AMC Entertainment, which runs AMC Theatres, is the world’s largest cinema chain company. The company managed to survive the COVID-19 pandemic, which was a near-death blow for the global cinema industry. Who owns AMC Theatres now and what lies ahead for the cinema chain company as streaming continues to challenge moviegoing?
AMC Entertainment was formed in 1920 when Maurice, Edward, and Barney Dubinsky bought the Regent Theatre in Kansas City. In 1961, it was renamed American Multi-cinema by the then CEO Stanley Durwood.
China’s Wanda Group acquired AMC in 2012.
In 2012, China’s Wanda Group acquired AMC for $2.6 billion. The group took AMC public the next year but continued to hold a majority stake. AMC Entertainment has made several acquisitions in its history. In 2016, it acquired Carmike Cinemas. The company also acquired Odeon & UCI Cinemas, which was the largest cinema chain company in the U.K. and Ireland.
Wanda Group exited AMC in 2021.
For Wanda Group, the AMC investment didn't turn out to be fruitful in the initial years. In 2021, the Group exited AMC and capitalized on the Reddit fuelled rally. Since Wanda Group has exited AMC, it isn't a Chinese-owned company anymore.
Who owns AMC Theatres now?
Since AMC is a publicly-traded company, it's owned by the stockholders now. The company is owned by both institutional and retail investors. Looking at the shareholding pattern, Vanguard is the largest investor in AMC and holds a 9.11 percent stake. BlackRock comes second with a 6.6 percent stake followed by State Street Capital Advisors with a 2.57 percent stake.
According to the data compiled by Fidelity, insiders own a 6.3 percent stake in AMC. The institutional stock and mutual fund ownership is 34.4 percent while 4.9 percent stake is held by mutual funds.
Retail investors own the bulk of AMC
Retail investors own 54.4 percent of AMC Entertainment. The figure is high compared to other U.S. companies. While most institutional investors exited the stock amid the Reddit frenzy, retail investors, many of whom proudly call themselves “apes,” hold most of AMC. Most of the retail stockholders have continued to hold AMC stock despite the slump.
AMC Entertainment CEO Adam Aron said that retail investors own 90 percent of the company. While this might seem at odds with the data, it's because most institutional investors aren't holding AMC by choice but because of its inclusion in indices. Aron has also praised the retail stockholders for their support and rewarded them with NFTs and free popcorn at the theatres.
Amazon doesn't own AMC — yet.
There have been rumors that Amazon intends to buy AMC. However, Amazon doesn't own AMC and might never do. While many see AMC as a good fit for Amazon’s streaming business, the e-commerce giant might use the money to repurchase its shares.
Debt holders also own AMC.
AMC has a huge debt pile, which only ballooned during the COVID-19 pandemic. The company owes over $5 billion and debt in case of bankruptcy, they would have the first charge on the company compared to the stockholders. Also, if AMC converts debt to equity as part of the restructuring, debtholders would end up owning a major chunk of AMC.
What’s the outlook for AMC?
AMC should continue to see a near-term surge in revenues as cinema-going improves from the lows. However, in the long term, moviegoing faces structural headwinds from streaming. While streaming might not kill moviegoing completely, it would lead to structural demand destruction.

Since the launch of the new UK GDPR regulation in May 2018, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) is yet to massively fine any UK businesses to-date.
Despite the media attention around the pre-conception that the UK GDPR could just be yet another revenue collector for the UK government, the ICO have reiterated that this isn’t the case and that as a Government Organisation, they are actually there to try to help companies as well as inform and train with regards to data storage/processing best practice within the workplace.
To date the organisation has received an average of 500 calls per week from businesses and organisations. ICO Deputy Commissioner for Operations, James Dipple-Johnstone, told the audience during a speech to the CBI Cyber Security: Business Insight Conference held in London, September 2018. “Around one in five of reported breaches involve cyber incidents, of which nearly half are the result of phishing. Other than that, causes involve malware (10%), misconfiguration (8%) and ransomware (6%) amongst others.”
It seems that businesses are still unclear as to what is expected of them by the ICO – knowing what they are obliged to report in terms of a serious cyber attack and / or what is determined as a lesser crime is still unclear to UK companies. Over-reporting, not completing a report, not reporting an incident within the 72hour deadline or not knowing what type of cyber security threat their business or organisation has endured are just some of the issues that companies are facing under the new UK GDPR law.
Has your business been subject to a data breach or are you looking to propel your business ahead of the situation before the inevitable happens? Here at Crendon Insurance Ltd our UK GDPR data protection advisors are on hand to support your business through the minefield of UK GDPR and data regulation legislation. To find out how we can help to protect your business or organisation, please contact us today or see our UK GDPR insurance page for more details.

Roster of experts available for interviews with journalists
Considering that China supports nearly 1.6 or so billion people,quite a sizeable proportion of world population,is making very commendable strides in economic prosperity. Until recently this most populous country was considered, a bad judgement and was erroneously considered the least economically viable project by western economic theory. Today Chinas story seems to have taken a new dimension,with the world re-rethinking on what this huge economy has adopted to reshape her convincingly rapid growth and development.
Chinas success story is could be explained in terms of its fundamental demographics. This is a huge market supplying cheap labour just as its a potential market to absorb its products! The west are transfering business to china just as China is visibly entering into partnership with most A
frican states that had been viewed as a preserve for western business!

Leading tire manufacturers launch global sustainability Roadmap
Geneva, 18 May 2021: The members of WBCSD’s Tire Industry Project (TIP) have launched a Roadmap to accelerate tire value-chain impact on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 to address some of the world’s most pressing issues by 2030.
The members of the Tire Industry Project (in alphabetical order) are, Bridgestone, Continental, Cooper Tire, Goodyear, Hankook, Kumho Tire, Michelin, Pirelli, Sumitomo Rubber, Toyo Tires, and Yokohama Rubber.
The Roadmap identifies how the tire value chain interacts with the SDGs; the areas where the tire sector can have the most significant impact; and key actions to scale and accelerate contribution to the SDGs.
“The tire sector interacts with all 17 SDGs, but the Roadmap puts focus where the sector has the greatest potential to lead, accelerate, or influence action toward the 2030 Agenda,” said TIP Director, Anne-Cécile Rémont. “Seven impact pathways to maximize positive impact and minimize negative impact were identified across three main themes: supply chain, operations, and products and services.”
Impact pathways were developed for each opportunity and include a series of actions toward the eight SDGs that the Roadmap identifies as priorities. Two Goals – SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth) and SDG 12 (responsible consumption and production) – were mapped against the Roadmap actions most frequently.
Achieving the Goals is beyond the reach of any one organization and TIP members recognize the integral role they have in driving the actions in this Roadmap forward. “We encourage all members of the sector, and customers, consumers, suppliers, governments, academia and NGOs, to engage with the Roadmap to accelerate SDG impact”, said Rémont.
Acknowledging the importance of the opportunities and challenges presented by the SDGs to multiple stakeholder groups, the Roadmap was produced in consultation with a range of global stakeholders including industry associations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and subject matter experts, along with support from consultancy firm ERM.
TIP members have an important role to play in leading the implementation of the Roadmap – both collectively and individually – and are aware that achieving the SDGs will require strong efforts from all stakeholders.
In delivering its mission to anticipate, study and determine key potential environmental and human health issues associated with the tire life cycle, TIP’s work program will also contribute to advancing the Roadmap. Furthermore, TIP recognizes that monitoring the progress of companies and the sector in their implementation of the Roadmap will be important to ensuring that the sector remains focused on optimizing its contributions to the SDGs. Consequently, by 2023 TIP will complement its existing monitoring of environmental key performance indicators (KPIs) for tire manufacturing with other indicators to measure progress against Roadmap targets.
The SDGs are recognized as a framework to tackle the world’s most pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges, and WBCSD’s SDG Sector Roadmaps aim to inspire businesses to translate global needs and ambitions into business solutions. “By applying their creativity and innovation to develop these solutions, companies and entire sectors will be in a better position to manage risk, anticipate demand, capture growth markets, and strengthen supply chains”, said Peter Bakker, President and CEO of WBCSD.

Scientific visualization has become one of projectiondesign’s most important markets. 150 million pairs of 3D glasses are going to be given away in time for the SuperBowl. They will not, however, be intended for use during the game itself—which will be broadcast, as usual, in two dimensions. The great glasses giveaway is a promotion by DreamWorks Animation, which hopes to persuade football fans that they should go out and see its latest picture, Monsters vs. Aliens, soon to be showing in 3D at a movie theater (fairly) near you.
In addition to the cost of giving away the glasses, which DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg estimates at “tens of millions of dollars”, the company has also had to pay for airtime and for a special 90-second commercial to be made for broadcast during the SuperBowl. The trailer will be perfectly viewable in 2D, but DreamWorks hopes that as many viewers as possible will have their free glasses to hand alongside their TV remote, mobile phone, and beer bottle.
Why such a big push for 3D now? Well, Hollywood studios are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in producing new movies in three dimensions. The New York Times estimated in a story this month that Disney alone has 15 3D movies in its production pipeline; other studios are working on at least as many again. Filming in 3D typically adds around $15 million to production costs, but studios can easily make that back— and much more—by charging premium prices at the box office.
Digital Projection is launching a new range of 3D projectors into the commercial AV market at the end of this month. One of the first permanent homes for DPI’s new 3D product was the Dollywood theater projection room. Yet, just as with digital cinema, the transition to 3D is being hampered by the customary bickering between studios, film distributors, and theater owners as to who should foot the bill for the $100,000 or so it costs to upgrade each screen. So, while movie industry luminaries such as DreamWorks’ Katzenberg foresee a time when all new feature films will be shot in 3D, the reality is that, for the foreseeable future, there will have to be 2D versions of movies such as Monsters vs. Aliens available if they are to get the breadth of distribution they need.
Which is not to say that all the fuss currently being made about 3D is irrelevant to the integrator community. On the contrary, professional AV has, if anything, a bigger field on which to play than mere moviegoing. As Digital Projection prepares to launch a whole new range of 3D projectors into the commercial AV market at the end of this month, its president, Mike Levi, paints a pretty clear picture on how the market for 3D has changed over the past few years. “Historically, 3D meant entertainment,” Levi said. “It was cinema, it was a museum or it was a theme park. Most of the requests we had for 3D would be for short films that were to be projected onto a big screen in a big auditorium. Those applications tended to need two projectors anyway, in order to get the brightness right. So we could always do passive 3D with two projectors.
“Then, about three years ago, our channel started to take us into other markets: scientific, medical, military, oil and gas, anything that involves the very close study of objects. These vertical markets were becoming very interested in 3D visualization, and it was clear the demand was there. That was when we started to think about what our active stereo 3D products might look like, and what they would offer our customers.”
Another hardware manufacturer to have recently embraced active 3D is Norway’s projectiondesign, which debuted its F10 AS3D portable projection system to wide acclaim at last year’s InfoComm. The company’s marketing communications manager, Anders Løkke, says that scientific visualization has become one of its most important markets. Equally, though, he is keen not to dismiss the significance of consumer promotions such as DreamWorks’ SuperBowl venture.
“We see 3D in terms of three different quality levels,” Løkke explained. “At the low end, there’s anaglyphic 3D with the old-style red/cyan glasses, along with the new ColorCode 3D system, which is the one DreamWorks will be using for their 90-second trailer. These systems don’t give a great experience, but they are important because they raise consumer awareness of 3D, and if that pulls people into movie theaters, it will be good for us.
“The middle range is where you stack one projector on top of another and you polarize them so that one handles the horizontal while the other does the vertical, or you use something like the Infitec system where you suck out a part of the color spectrum for each eye. These approaches are useful for larger groups but they have some drawbacks in terms of light loss and color loss, and you also need a polarizing screen.
“Finally, at the high end would be active stereo for immersive environments such as CAVEs, where you use multiple rear-projection screens. The price goes up—the glasses from Real D are around $700, so they’re never going to be a SuperBowl giveaway— but so does the quality.”
For the end customer, the attractions of immersive 3D environments are clear. They reduce the time it takes for hard-pressed car manufacturers, for example, to get new models to market. And they enable the military to train personnel on the use of new equipment without the need to create a physical ‘theater’.
For the integrator, though, this application throws up a number of key technical considerations. As Digital Projection’s Levi pointed out: “Typically, in the 3-chip DLP world, there are two specs that we talk about, namely native resolution and lumens. In commercial AV, people pay more money for brightness when they have large screens to project onto. But immersive applications, where ambient light levels are very controlled, are more like a home theater, where contrast is actually more important. If you have too many lumens, you get a lot of light coming off every screen that can result in crosstalk that is very detrimental to the application. A better solution is to improve the dynamic range and lower the black level through increased contrast. A lower black level conveys a much better sense of that third dimension.”
Levi added that the amount of specialist knowledge required to design and install for 3D visualization varies enormously, depending on how much the end customer is doing for themselves. “If the end user is already generating their own content and all they need is distribution and display, then the learning curve is not difficult,” Levi said. “But there are a number of customers who are looking for more than a display. They may be looking for content and help with the image generation, and in those applications, most of the work is going to go to specialist integrators who already in visualization and simulation.”
Anders Løkke noted that while the advent of self-contained, singleprojector stereo solutions with familiar user interfaces has made one part of the integrator’s job easier, not every link in the chain can be relied upon to be straightforward. “The problem I see is serving up the content and media. There’s no standard computer platform for it. We’ve seen Autodesk’s new Maya, which is ready to make 3D straight out of the box, and that will be interesting. And during 2009 we’ll be going to a few shows where live 3D CAD drawing is going to be demonstrated, and that will be a big leap forward.”
The very idea of virtual reality as a spontaneous entity may seem incongruous to many. After all, doesn’t all that CGI in those DreamWorks and Disney movies (not to mention computer games) take millions of man-hours to create? Up until now, it has. But new technology is making it easier for virtual environments to be created, for everything from TV commercials to live corporate events.
Earlier this month, PSP AV used London’s Royal Academy as the launch platform for Animotion Live, a new motion-capture system designed to streamline the process of both 2D and 3D animated image creation. “In movie production, what happens is they capture a person’s body movement as one data stream, hand movement as another, head movement as another, and then in post-production they bring all those elements together,” says David Woodcock, account manager, Animotion.
“For a movie like Shrek, they will do those different elements and then stitch them together in post-production, and that creates a huge postproduction pipeline of around 30 people on each of those elements. The quality of the results is very accurate, but below that level, in regular video production, advertising, and live events, these systems are hugely expensive. So what we’ve come up with is a way in which all these streams are captured in real time, and all integrated together. So at a live event, for example, you’ve got a real character that can interact with you.”
Perhaps more than any other integration marketplace, 3D needs both the right quality and the right quantity of content if it is to keep on growing. With Hollywood’s huge financial commitment at one end of the scale, and innovations such as Animotion Live at the other, the content issue looks as though it is finally being addressed at a number of different levels.
At the end of this month, 150 million Americans will get the chance to see just how far 3D has come. The floodgates of this brave new market may not yet be fully open but, thanks to the efforts of content producers, enlightened AV manufacturers and pioneering integrators, the lock has been successfully picked, and a chink of light is appearing. What happens next could be very big indeed.

There has been some chatter about foldable devices from HONOR for quite some time now. Well, HONOR has just confirmed all that chatter, as it trademarked some device names that suggest foldable devices, the Magic Flip, Fold, and Flex.
A well-known display analyst said, several times, that HONOR is planning to release its first foldable soon. The company will likely announce it by the end of this year, as soon as August, if a recent report is to be believed.
HONOR trademarked some names that suggest foldable devices are coming
Based on these name trademarks, HONOR may be planning to release more than one foldable in the near future. HONOR may want to release competitors for both the Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series of devices.
In other words, the company may announce a foldable tablet, and a foldable smartphone. The ‘Flex’ name may even suggest that a rollable phone is in HONOR’s plans, we’ll see.
Now, HONOR did sign a deal with Visionox at the end of last year, as the company will be provided with flexible displays from Visionox. Some insiders also talked about HONOR foldables, so they’re surely coming.
HONOR is no longer Huawei’s company
HONOR, as most of you know by now, was Huawei’s company. That’s not longer the case, though, as it was sold by Huawei. This benefits HONOR when it comes to Google services, though. HONOR is free to pre-installed Google services, and is not a part of the US ban at this point.
The company announced some interesting smartphones quite recently, its HONOR 50 series, but the Magic-branded phone(s) are expected to be even more premium.
We don’t have any specific details regarding HONOR’s first foldable smartphone. We can only guess it will be a foldable tablet similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 3, but it remains to be seen. HONOR’s foldables are also expected to be more affordable than most of the competition, so it will be interesting to see those price tags.

When Will 'Mario Kart 9' Be Released? What We Know About the New Game
It's been seven years since 'Mario Kart 8' was released, and players are anxiously awaiting the announcement of 'Mario Kart 9.'
Even if you don't consider yourself a gamer, you've probably played Mario Kart at least a handful of times. The hit video game by Nintendo has been a staple on all of its consoles and is one of the company's top-selling games.
The latest installment in the franchise, Mario Kart 8, was released in 2014. Naturally, players are anxiously awaiting the announcement of Mario Kart 9.
While Mario Kart 8 is currently available for the Nintendo Switch, it was originally released for the Wii U, meaning it's high time for a new game.
Nintendo held its first Nintendo Direct livestream in more than a year on Feb. 17, 2021 and many expected the announcement of Mario Kart 9 (along with some other long-awaited titles) during the showcase.
Here's what we know about the potential release date and features in Mario Kart 9.
When is the release date of 'Mario Kart 9'?
While Nintendo has yet to confirm a release date for Mario Kart 9, players are expecting its release sometime this year. It's been almost seven years since Mario Kart 8 hit consoles, so many are holding out hope that the announcement will come before the end of the year.
Enough information has been leaked that all but confirms the upcoming release of the Nintendo Switch Pro, an updated console with better graphics, battery power, and 4k capabilities.
Right now, the new console is estimated to launch around the holiday season. If there is a new console being released this year, then we can expect Mario Kart 9 will be optimized for that, and it will likely be released around the same time.
This would be an exciting development for the franchise, as none of Nintendo's current consoles run in 4K.
What are the essential 'Mario Kart 9' spoilers?
Again, Nintendo has yet to confirm any details about the rumored title, but it's expected that the game's cast of characters will expand even further in Mario Kart 9.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (the version released for the Switch) featured five new playable characters, including Bowser Jr., Dry Bones, the Inkling Boys and Girls, and King Boo. Mario Kart 9 will likely expand on that collection even further.
There's some speculation that the new Mario Kart title will see the cast expand to the size and breadth of Super Smash Bros, pulling from other Nintendo franchises, though the company has yet to confirm that.
Mario Kart 8 introduced new mechanics into the gameplay, including the ability to defy gravity and race upside down, so expect equally innovative gameplay mechanisms to be added to this next installment.
Retro Dodo reports that it's possible we'll see a new tackling feature implemented into the races, offering more direct battle mechanisms against other players, though that rumor has yet to be confirmed by Nintendo.
Other than that, though, it's not likely that Nintendo will change much more in Mario Kart 9. The title will likely follow the same tried-and-true format as the other previous titles have.

Tartine Bakery to open flagship store in Seoul
[THE INVESTOR] San Francisco-based bakeshop Tartine Bakery will open its first flagship store in Hannam-dong, Seoul, on Jan. 28, according to industry sources on Jan. 4.
This marks the first overseas store for Tartine Bakery -- famous for its signature country loaves and croissants. Tartine Bakery is reportedly aiming to open three or four more stores in Korea before the end of 2019.
Tartine has already brought Korean bakers to it headquarters in San Francisco and trained them. Some top bakers from its US headquarters will also be sent to work at the new Korean outlet.
Lee Hyun-hee, the owner of popular dessert cafe Dessertree, and Lee Il-joo, founder of Pizzeria D’Buzza, will run the new Tartine Bakery store in Seoul.
It is likely the bakery will also sell coffee, as the company has its own coffee brand Coffee Manufactory, which was created by Tartine Chief Operating Officer Chris Jordan, who oversaw coffee quality at Starbucks and Verve Coffee.
Previously, Tartine had worked with many coffee producers such as Mr. Espresso, Four Barrel Coffee and Blue Bottle Coffee. In 2015, the company even attempted to merge with Blue Bottle. At the time, Tartine was considering opening a store in Japan, where Blue Bottle manufactures goods like mugs and eco-bags. But the two companies called off the deal in December 2015. Tartine also put its global expansion plans on hold at the time. A year later, talks about entering Korea emerged.

Wearing masks when shopping or doing essential business in public is now the law in Los Angeles County.
But authorities are hoping that the public will comply voluntarily.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villaneuva and L.A. Police Chief Michel Moore aren’t about to cite anyone right now, but officers will offer a few words of encouragement from behind their own masks, worn to reduce the spread of the novel coronavirus.
“We are looking for voluntary compliance. We have discussed it with all the police chiefs in the county,” Villaneuva said. “We aren’t talking enforcement here.” Villaneuva, wearing his own mask, said it is about people doing the right thing for others when they are heading out to essential businesses and are around others.

Huawei Launches Blockchain-As-A-Service (BaaS)
What this article says
Huawei announces his own BaaS service. The platform allows clients to create their own smart contracts.
What this means to the market
Another big player joins blockchain industry!
Telecommunications and smartphone provider Huawei has become the latest tech giant in China to launch a blockchain-as-a-service (BaaS) platform.
Announced at Huawei's analyst conference in Shenzhen on Tuesday, the company's new platform, dubbed Blockchain Service, is said to enable companies to develop smart contracts on top of a distributed ledger network for several use-case scenarios.
A member of, and contributor to, the Linux Foundation's Hyperledger Blockchain Consortium since October 2016, Huawei has based the new BaaS solution on Hyperledger Fabric 1.0, according to Hu Ruifeng, a Huawei engineer who also co-authored the project's white paper ahead of the launch.
As reported by CoinDesk, Hyperledger Fabric 1.0 version was first released in July of last year, and marked a key milestone for the open-source software as it progressed towards production-ready status for enterprise application development.
According to the white paper, the BaaS platform currently allows clients to build smart contract applications that focus on supply chain, tokenized securities assets and public services such as ID verification and financial auditing.
The launch marks the latest technological development from Huawei in its push into blockchain technology, and follows recent efforts by Hu and Huawei engineer Zhou Haojun to develop Project Caliper - software designed to test the performance of major blockchains.
Huawei's effort also comes as major internet and technology giants from China are moving into the space with Baidu and Tencent both having launched their own blockchain service platforms recently.
E-commerce giant JD.com also announced a similar plan in a white paper released last month.
Hedge funds are increasingly interested in trading cryptocurrencies, providing a growing client base for investments banks carrying out cryptocurrency trading.
