CARRO is an online car marketplace that offers full-stack services for all aspects of car ownership, including buying and selling cars, financing and workshop servicing.
The Singapore-based startup has operations throughout Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand and is the largest car marketplace in the Southeast Asia region.
History
Founded in July 2015 by Aaron Tan, a former Venture capital with Singtel Innov8, the idea for CARRO emerged during a conversation about the difficulties of buying used cars in Singapore and from an honest seller. This came as Aaron studied in the United States and observed how easy it was to buy cars transparently without middlemen, at the same time witnessing a lack of this in Southeast Asia. The company was also co-founded by Aaron's friends Aditya Lesmana and Kelvin Chng, with Aaron being the CEO.
The company’s founders then went on to write a proprietary pricing algorithm that makes searching for the best car deals easier and with more transparency.
In 2021, CARRO was named Singapore’s fastest-growing company by national news publication The Straits Times and global research company Statista.
Technology
CARRO first started as a marketplace for users, including small businesses and car dealerships in Singapore to buy and sell used cars. As a tech platform, the process of buying and selling a car is digitized, with users selling and buying cars via daily auctions online and through an app.
Services
CARRO offers services driven by digital and technology. This includes an online and app-based car buying and selling service and an in-house digital financing solutions provider through its sister company, Genie Financial Services. The company also has an in-house car workshop and an on-demand roadside recovery platform, which was Singapore’s first.
In June 2016, CARRO launched a mobile app that recommends car owners workshops based on factors like services, reputation, ratings, locations and time of operation.
In March 2017, CARRO launched an on-demand online marketplace that allows deals and sales to be completed within two hours. The service was improved the following year, resulting in transactions taking only one hour.
In March 2019, CARRO launched the first Vehicle subscription service in Singapore. This service obsoletes long-term rental contracts, allowing customers to lease and drive brand new and used cars with a monthly fee.
In November 2019, CARRO launched a first of its kind usage-based insurance solution in partnership with NTUC Income.
In July 2020, CARRO had created a safe option for Singapore buyers and sellers to trade used cars through a contactless purchase service, a move introduced to address consumer behaviour during the COVID-19 pandemic. The contactless service prioritised safety for CARRO customers and leveraged the company's existing technology, finance, maintenance and insurance solutions.
Regional Expansion
In 2016, CARRO recorded over US$100 million worth of transactions after just one year of operations. These figures doubled in 2017 to US$250 million and again doubled to US$500 million in 2018.
In 2017, CARRO started its regional expansion, opening offices in Thailand and Indonesia.
In August 2019, CARRO acquired Indonesia’s leading C2C marketplace, Jualo.com, and Thailand-based automotive marketplace, TrusteeCars. The company also planned to do three more acquisitions by 2019 and expand to other Southeast Asian markets.
In September 2019, the company announced its venture into neighbouring Malaysia with a US$30 million investment in online car bidding platform, MyTukar.
In September 2021, plans were revealed to set up CARRO in other countries in Asia while firming up its existing markets. It also plans to list in the United States within the next 18 to 24 months.
Funding
In November 2015, CARRO received seed funding of US$716,000 in seed funding co-led by undisclosed legal investors.
In June 2016, CARRO raised US$5.3 million in Series A funding led by Lippo Group-backed firm Venturra Capital, with other investors chipping in like Singtel Innov8, Golden Gate Ventures, Alpha JWC Ventures and Skystar Capital.
In March 2017, CARRO raised US$12 million in Series A funding by an undisclosed investor. The money was used to fund its automobile financing firm Genie Financial Services.
In May 2018, CARRO raised US$60 million in Series B funding co-led by Softbank Ventures Korea, Insignia Ventures Partners, and B Capital Group, and participated in by IDG Ventures India, Venturra Capital, Singtel Innov8, Golden Gate Ventures, and Alpha JWC Ventures.
In August 2019, CARRO raised an additional US$30 million in Series B funding backed by investors SoftBank Ventures Asia, EDBI, Dietrich Foundation, NCORE Ventures, bringing the company’s Series B funding to US$90 million.
In October 2020, CARRO raised close to US$150 million in debt financing facilities and equity from new investors Mitsubishi Corp and MS&AD Ventures. The company’s post-money valuation is reported to be US$289.1 million.
In June 2021, CARRO raised US$360 million in Series C funding led by Softbank Vision Fund 2, along with other investors like MSIG and EV Growth. The funds raised resulted in CARRO achieving unicorn status (equivalent to US$1 billion valuation in company value).
In December 2021, CARRO raised US$100 million in Series C funding led by investors including Temasek Holdings unit Anderson Investments, PNB Capital Global 2, Sime Darby's Sime Singapore and Mirae Asset. Another US$15.6 million was raised from other investors the same month.
Awards
In 2019, CARRO was the Hottest Startup in 2019. The company also received a Silver Mobile Excellence Award for the Best E-commerce App.
In 2018, CARRO won the VC Deal of the Year Award, granted by the Singapore Venture Capital and Private Equity Association (SVCA).

Laura Mas Hernandez (born 27 July 1985), known professionally as Okokume, is a Spanish contemporary artist. Her works are best recognized by repeated use of her signature character Cosmic Girl, a pink-haired spirit with turquoise skin who came from the universe. She is one of the fastest-growing contemporary artists in the art market, scoring numerous satisfying auction records since 2020. Okokume was ranked 92nd on the London Daily Post's 2021 International Trend Artist Influence.
Life and career
Academic background and early career
Okokume was in 1985 born and raised in Mataró, Barcelona. From early on, she was a fan of Japanese anime, manga, such as Akira by Katsuhiro Ōtomo, Dragon Ball Z by Akira Toriyama, Ranma ½ by Rumiko Takahashi and Swedish comic strip The Moomins by Tove Jansson, influences that shaped her artistic style and language. She earned a degree in Advertising Graphic Design from the prestigious Llotja School of Art and Design, Barcelona 2010.
In her early works, Okokume approached her figurative paintings under the influence of Impressionism. She would paint women dressed in kimonos along with other Japanese accessories such as oil-paper umbrellas, wasagas. Her early portraits possess her enigmatic style, most notably the pink hair and the turquoise face with a darker apocalyptic undertone where the women's faces are distorted and with holes.
The artworks of this period were met with international success, exhibiting in galleries such as Barcelona, Berlin, and Los Angeles in collaborating group exhibitions.
Lowbrow and Cosmic Girl
She gradually started to find grounds in a Lowbrow style coupled with contemporary street styles., reflecting her passion for Japanese manga. After the evolution of internal dialogue, personal growth, and frustration with the real problems of the planet, she felt the need to start developing her own support mechanism, creating a messenger character that would reach out to all audiences, Cosmic Girl, a pink-haired, turquoise-skinned spirit, who consciously and respectfully conveys the importance of protecting the environment, as well as bringing attention to various social causes.
The colourful and cheerful shades that Cosmic Girl and her universe brought started to gain international attention, which contributed to the artist's success in the art market after her debut exhibition, Cosmic World in Hong Kong in 2017. Her popularity in Asia continued to grow in 2018 when Okokume's works were presented together with JPS Gallery and K11. In 2020, she presented her first bronze sculpture in JPS Gallery Hong Kong.
Cosmic Girl Café
In August 2019, she opened Cosmic Girl Café, a collaborative project with artist Kasing Lung, in Harajuku, Tokyo. The opening of the café is held concurrently with the two artists’ collaborative exhibition, The Monsters and the Cosmic Stars, in JPS Gallery Tokyo. The merchandise, including limited edition toys and exclusive original objects, presented with the show, were sold out within a few hours.
Personal life
Okokume is an enthusiast of comics, Japanese popular culture, and a loyal follower of the Ghibli universe. The artist cites influence from Katsuhiro Ōtomo's Akira when she first saw it at the age of eight. Since 2018, Okokume has been actively collaborating with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. She participated in numerous charity exhibitions and auctions with profits donated to the foundation. Okokume is represented by JPS Gallery

Sir Peter John Harrop, KCB (18 March 1926 – 10 September 2020) was a British civil servant.
Background
Born on 18 March 1926, Harrop attended Peterhouse, Cambridge, before serving in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve for three years until 1948. He then entered HM Civil Service in 1949 as an official in the Ministry of Town and Country Planning, and served in its successors until 1973, when he left the Department of the Environment (DoE) to work in HM Treasury.
In 1977, Harrop returned to the DoE as a Deputy Secretary and served there until 1986 (except for a period in the Cabinet Office from 1979 to 1980); he was Second Permanent Secretary from 1981 to 1986. After the 1981 Toxteth riots, he was the most senior official sent with the Secretary of State, Michael Heseltine, to work in Liverpool for over two weeks and develop policies to prevent recurrences of violence. Harrop personally inspected housing in Netherley, an area suffering from considerable housing deprivation but spared the rioting which blighted Toxteth. For his public service, Harrop was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath in the 1980 Birthday Honours and promoted to Knight Companion in the 1984 Birthday Honours.
After leaving the civil service, he was chairman of the National Bus Company from 1988 to 1991 and a director of various companies. He died on 10 September 2020.

Sam Thomas (born 22 June 1984) is a retired Welsh National Hunt jockey who is now a horse trainer. He is best known for winning the 2008 Cheltenham Gold Cup with Denman.
Across his career as a jockey, Thomas won 509 races and earnt £5.59 million prize money in Great Britain and a further €255,815 in the Republic of Ireland.
Personal life
Thomas was born in Abergavenny, Wales. He rode in point to points before graduating to race riding.
Racing career
Thomas began his racing career with David Evans in Wales. He primarily looked after the horses and took them to races. Thomas had his first runner at Exeter Racecourse, If And But on 20 December 2001. His first winner was Indian Summer at Ludlow Racecourse on 2 April 2003.
Thomas joined Venetia Williams yard and by 20 he had ridden out his claim, and saw success with Limerick Boy winning the 2004 Lanzarote Hurdle at Kempton Park and a Summer Cup at Uttoxeter Racecourse with Kock De La Vesvre.
Thomas would later join Paul Nicholls as second jockey to Ruby Walsh. Big race victories followed, including his first Group 1 winner in the Betfair Chase with Kauto Star and later the 2007 Tingle Creek Chase with Twist Magic.
The biggest race win of his career came in 2008, taking victory in the Cheltenham Gold Cup with Denman beating stablemate Kauto Star.
Following his Gold Cup victory, Thomas had mixed form in 2008 which led to doubts in the media over his future with his current employers. Continuing to ride Nicholls' top runners, he fell at the last fence in the Betfair Chase on Kauto Star, and again in the Hennessy Gold Cup at Newbury Racecourse on Big Buck's. Both races he was leading at the time.
Thomas would continue riding until 2015 when he retired. In 2017 he returned to the saddle for a charity race in aid of Bob Champion at Chepstow Racecourse, winning on Maoi Chinn Tire.

Minor league baseball teams were based in Middlesboro, Kentucky in various seasons between 1913 and 1963. Middlesboro teams played as members of the Appalachian League in 1913 and 1914, the Mountain States League from 1949 to 1954 and Appalachian League from 1961 to 1963.
Middlesboro teams played as a minor league affiliate of the Washington Senators from 1961 to 1962 and both the Chicago Cubs & Chicago White Sox in 1963.
History
Minor league baseball began in Middlesboro when the 1913 Middlesboro Colonels began play in the Class D level Appalachian League. The Colonels ended the season with a 30–71 record to finish in 6th place in the 1913 regular season standings. In 1914, the Colonels continued play and were in 1st place with a 15–13 record, when the team disbanded on June 17, 1914. The Morristown Jobbers disbanded at the same time, causing the entire Appalachian League to cease operations.
Minor league baseball returned to Middlesboro 35 years later, when the 1949 Middlesboro Athletics began play as members of the Class D level Mountain States League. The Athletics joined fellow 1949 league members, the Big Stone Gap Rebels, Harlan Smokies, Hazard Bombers, Jenkins Cavaliers, Morristown Red Sox, Newport Canners and Pennington Gap Miners. The 1949 Athletics ended the season with a 69–56 record, placing 3rd in the standings and losing to Harlan in the playoffs. Middlesboro had home season attendance of 25,833 in 1949. The Athletics remained in the Mountain States League through 1954.
On July 20, 1954, Middlesboro was in 1st place with a 48–34 record when the Mountain States League disbanded permanently. The league folded after the Morristown Red Sox franchise had disbanded on May 15, 1954, Maryville–Alcoa moved to Morristown on June 19, 1954, then disbanded on July 7, 1954, and the Lexington Colts disbanded on July 7, 1954, causing the league to disband. Middlesboro had home season attendance of 9,031, an average of 220 per game.
Middlesboro returned to the Appalachian League in 1961, with the Middlesboro Senators playing alongside the Bluefield Orioles, Harlan Smokies, Johnson City Cardinals, Kingsport Pirates, Morristown Cubs, Salem Rebels and Wytheville Twins in the eight–team league. In 1961, as an affiliate of the Washington Senators, the Senators captured the 1961 Appalachian League Championship with a 39–27 record. Middlesboro drew 16,751. In 1962, the Senators placed 3rd with a 35–34 record.
In 1963, Middlesboro became an affiliate of both the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox, playing as the Middlesboro Cubsox. The Appalachian League became a Rookie level league. The Middlesboro Cubsox finished with a record of 31–57. After the season, Middlesboro and the Kingsport Pirates disbanded, leaving the league with four teams for the 1964 season.
The ballpark
Beginning in 1949, Middlesboro teams were noted to have played home games at Hilltop Speedway Park. The ballpark had a capacity of 2,500 and the facility was a racetrack that added the baseball park within its grounds. Hilltop Speedway Park hosted the Middlesboro Athletics (1949–1954), Middlesboro Senators (1961–1962) and Middlesboro Cubsox (1963) after the Hilltop Speedway Association built the baseball diamond and bleachers with lighting. The Speedway was located on 25-E Highway in Middlesboro, Kentucky.

Elizabeth "Toots" Barger (March 30, 1913 -September 28, 1998) was a Baltimore, Maryland duckpin bowling champion.
She was born Mary Elizabeth Ryan in Hamilton, Maryland and graduated from Eastern High School in 1931. She was dubbed "Tootsie" by her aunt, which she later shortened to the nickname "Toots". She married Ernest Barger, a plumber, and they had two children.
Barger began duckpin bowling in 1939, when she played in her cousin's duckpin league in Baltimore. Popularly thought to have been invented in Baltimore in 1900, the sport of duckpin bowling reached the height of its popularity in the 1940s and 1950s. The Baltimore Evening Sun newspaper sponsored an annual tournament from 1925 to 1968, which was often broadcast on local television. Barger won that tournament 12 times in 22 years, including six consecutive wins from 1946 to 1951. She was ranked the number one duckpin bowler by the National Duckpin Bowling Congress thirteen times during her career. She also was a three time winner of the U.S. Classic and a seven time winner of the Dixie Classic. Hailed as "Queen of Duckpins", Barger was a local celebrity. She and her husband owned the Libertytown Bowling Alley, where Barger gave bowling lessons. Barger retired from the sport in 1961 and stopped bowling entirely in 1995 after two knee replacements.
Barger was inducted into the Duckpin Bowling Hall of Fame, Anne Arundel County Sports Hall of Fame, and was the second woman inducted into the Maryland State Athletic Hall of Fame in 1961. She donated a number of items to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, including a bowling ball engraved with her nickname Toots. In 1999, Sports Illustrated published lists of the greatest athletes in every sport of all time from each US state, including Barger on Maryland's list at number 50.
In 1992 she led an unsuccessful campaign to make duckpin bowling the official state sport of Maryland.
She died on cancer at a retirement home in Frederick, Maryland in 1998.

José de Saavedra y Salamanca, 2nd Marquess of Viana, GE (4 April 1870 – 5 April 1927) was a Spanish peer and hunter.
A prominent figure in the court of Alfonso XIII, he held important posts such as gentilhombre Grande de España from 1902, caballerizo mayor from 1906 and was a senator in his own right from 1905 to 1923. He was famed for his hunting expertise, being the organiser and utmost authority of the royal hunts. His extraordinarily close relationship with the king, who regarded him in great favour, would be heavily controversial; the Queen and a sector of society accused him of providing and fostering the king's infidelities.
Early life
Viana was born in Madrid into an aristocratic family, whose parents were Fausto de Saavedra y Cueto, 1st Count of Urbasa, and Fernanda de Salamanca y García, as well as being the grandson of the illustrious writer the 3rd Duke of Rivas, who held high public offices. He was also a grandnephew of the immensely wealthy magnate and politician, the 1st Marquess of Salamanca.
His mother died when he was seven years old, and his father only lived three more years. Being orphaned in 1880, he was left in the care of his grandmother, the widowed Duchess of Rivas, and when she died in 1885, his uncle Teobaldo de Saavedra y Cueto, 1st Marquess of Viana, took care of his education. His uncle and guardian was married to Carmen Pérez de Barradas, who had inherited a large fortune from her first husband. The Marquesses of Viana had no children, and they poured their love into young José, whom they would designate as heir to his estate and his successor in said title.
His school years were spent at the Colegio de San Luis Gonzaga, in El Puerto de Santa María, and in 1885 he entered the Artillery Academy of Segovia, where he obtained the office of lieutenant five years later. He would eventually attain the employment of lieutenant colonel.
At the royal court
In 1901 he was a professor at the Carabanchel shooting school, and there he met the young king Alfonso XIII, beginning an intense friendship between the two that would last until the death of the Marquess. In 1902 he began to serve in the Palace as a gentilhombre Grande de España con ejercicio y servidumbre, just a few days before accompanying the monarch as he swore before the Cortes (on May 17 of that year, when he was proclaimed of legal age in advance). In addition, he was one of those chosen for the trip to bring his fiancée, Princess Victoria Eugenie of Battenberg, to Spain.
Viana was a senator in his own right since 1905. The following year, after the Royal House was reorganized due to the King's marriage and taking advantage of the royal wedding between Alfonso and Victoria Eugenia, the monarch appointed the Marquess of Viana caballerizo mayor (also montero mayor), replacing the 7th Marquess of la Mina,
In such a condition, he would organize the King's trips outside the palace and his hunting parties in the royal hunting grounds (Monte de El Pardo, Valsaín, Boca del Asno, the Mudela Encomienda, Doñana, Saja etc.). He would also accompany the monarch on hunts at private estates throughout Spain (Rincón Alto in Moratalla, owned by him, El Castañar, owned by the Count of Mayalde, Malpica, owned by the Duke of Arión or Ventosilla, owned by the Duke of Santoña) or abroad (for instance, Sutton Surrey in England). He would also be an enthusiastic polo player who would contribute to the spread of this sport in the country by organizing, as a groom, the tournaments at the Palacio de la Magdalena and, in particular, a famous annual championship at his estate in Moratalla.
The work of "Pepe Viana" was not only that of a faithful employee of the Royal House. His status as a friend and confidant made him the leader of the clique of friends of Alfonso XIII, which also included the Marquess of la Vega Inclán, Enrique Careaga, the Duke of Alba, José Quiñones de León or the Duke of Infantado. The monarch, his family and his court would visit Viana's Moratalla palace on twelve occasions between 1908 and 1927 to hunt or play polo. He organized a private trip for the King to the Deauville horse races in August 1922, which was strongly criticized as it took place shortly after the Disaster of Annual, at a time of great political instability.
In 1925, upon the death of the 8th Marquess of la Torrecilla, Alfonso XIII expressed his very close trust and friendship in him by naming him "Jefe Superior de Palacio" and sommelier de corps. In 1926, the monarch granted him the collars of the Order of the Golden Fleece and the Order of Charles III.
Death
Viana's relationship with queen Victoria Eugenie came to be described as enmity, because she considered the Marquess a provider of infidelities towards her husband the King, while the Marquess blamed her for bringing Haemophilia to the Spanish royal family, due to his ancestry stemming from Queen Victoria. In April 1927, there would be a fierce in-person discussion between the two, in which the queen accused Viana of seeking a royal divorce. This immediately caused an indisposition in him that killed him later the following day, on April 5, 1927. The newspapers of the time attributed the death of the aristocrat to a serious Uremia attack. His funeral enjoyed great resonance in the press and demonstrated the power and influence that the Marquess of Viana had, with Infante Alfonso, the Government in its entirety with Primo de Rivera, as well as the heads of the Palace attending the event. The King and the Prince of Asturias went out to the balcony of the Royal Palace when the procession passed in front of it towards the Cemetery of San Isidro.
Issue
He married Mencía Collado y del Alcázar, 10th Marchioness of Valle de la Paloma, daughter of the 2nd Marquess of Laguna and the 9th Countess of Montalvo, in 1896 in Madrid. They had three children:
María del Carmen de Saavedra y Collado, 13th Marchioness of Villaviciosa (1899-1967)
Leonor de Saavedra y Collado, Countess of Torrehermosa (1901-1955)
Fausto de Saavedra y Collado, 7th Duke of la Roca (1902-1980)

Cryptocurrencies in general, and most notably Bitcoin, have been criticized for the amount of electricity consumed by mining.
Energy consumption
, the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance (CCAF) estimates that bitcoin consumes 131 TWh annually, representing 0.29% of the world's energy production and 0.59% of the world's electricity production, ranking bitcoin mining between Ukraine and Egypt in terms of electricity consumption.
George Kamiya, writing for the International Energy Agency, says that "predictions about bitcoin consuming the entire world's electricity" are sensational, but that the area "requires careful monitoring and rigorous analysis". One study done by Michael Novogratz's Galaxy Digital, a cryptocurrency investment firm, claimed that Bitcoin mining used less energy than the traditional banking system.
Sources of energy
Until 2021, according to the CCAF much of bitcoin mining was done in China. Chinese miners used to rely on cheap coal power in Xinjiang in late autumn, winter and spring, and then migrate to regions with overcapacities in low-cost hydropower, like Sichuan, between May and October. In June 2021 China banned Bitcoin mining and Chinese miners moved to other countries. By December 2021, the global hashrate had mostly recovered to a level before China's crackdown, with increased shares of the total mining power coming from the U.S. (35.4%), Kazakhstan (18.1%), and Russia (11%) instead.
As of September 2021, according to the New York Times, Bitcoin's use of renewables range from 40% to 75%. According to the Bitcoin Mining Council and based on a survey of 32% of the current global bitcoin network, 56% of bitcoin mining came from renewable resources in Q2 2021. However, experts and government authorities have suggested that the use of renewable energy by the cryptocurrency mining sector may limit the availability of such clean energy for ordinary uses by the general population.
Negative impact
Carbon emissions
Concerns about bitcoin's environmental impact relate bitcoin's energy consumption to carbon emissions. The difficulty of translating the energy consumption into carbon emissions lies in the decentralized nature of bitcoin impeding the localization of miners to examine the electricity mix used. The results of recent studies analyzing bitcoin's carbon footprint vary. A 2018 study published in Nature Climate Change by Mora et al. claimed that bitcoin "could alone produce enough emissions to push warming above 2 °C within less than three decades." However, three other studies also published in Nature Climate Change later dismissed this analysis on account of its poor methodology and false assumptions with one study concluding: "[T]he scenarios used by Mora et al are fundamentally flawed and should not be taken seriously by the public, researchers, or policymakers." According to studies published in Joule and American Chemical Society in 2019, bitcoin's annual energy consumption results in annual carbon emission ranging from 17 to 22.9 Mt which is comparable to the level of emissions of countries as Jordan and Sri Lanka or Kansas City. However, other academic studies report a much broader range of carbon footprint estimates. For instance, according to a study published in Finance Research Letters in 2021, differences in underlying assumptions and variation in the coverage of time periods and forecast horizons have led to Bitcoin carbon footprint estimates spanning from 1.2-5.2 Mt CO2 to 130.50 Mt CO2 per year.
Electronic waste
Researchers estimate that electronic waste generated by Bitcoin mining devices amounts to 30.7 metric kilotonnes annually as of May 2021. Due to the consistent increase of the bitcoin network's hashrate, mining devices are estimated to have an average lifespan of 1.29 years until they become unprofitable and need to be replaced. Mining devices based on ASIC technology, which are the standard hardware for Bitcoin mining, are specialized devices that cannot be repurposed for another use, and hence become electronic waste once they become unprofitable.
Efforts to reduce the impact
Some major cryptocurrencies are implementing technical measures to reduce the negative environmental impact.
Bitcoin developers are working on the Lightning Network that would reduce energy demand of the network by moving most transactions off the blockchain.
Ethereum is transitioning from the Proof of work to the Proof of stake algorithm, to reduce the network's energy demand by around 99%.
Possible remedies
The development of intermittent renewable energy sources, such as wind power and solar power, is challenging because they cause instability in the electrical grid. Several papers concluded that these renewable power stations could use the surplus energy to mine Bitcoin and thereby reduce curtailment, hedge electricity price risk, stabilize the grid, increase the profitability of renewable energy infrastructure, and therefore accelerate transition to sustainable energy and decrease Bitcoin's carbon footprint.
Some hydroelectric plants are using the excess power to mine Bitcoin. According to the owners of Mechanicville Hydroelectric Plant, the mining saved the plant from dismantlement.
Reversible computing chips and hash recycling could possibly provide some advantage to bitcoin mining in forms of reduced energy usage and e-waste, but the reversible computing is still at its early stages. The paper suggests starting research and development on reversible bitcoin mining chips and also hash recycling for providing entropy to pseudorandom number generation.
Climate-related criticism of Bitcoin is primarily based on the network’s absolute carbon emissions, without considering its market value. However, when taking a relative emission perspective that connects Bitcoin’s carbon emissions to its market value, one study suggests that Bitcoin investments can be less carbon intensive than standard equity investments. The addition of Bitcoin to a diversified equity portfolio can thus reduce the portfolio’s aggregate carbon footprint.

"Karma Man" is a song written and recorded by English singer-songwriter David Bowie. It was recorded on 1 September 1967 at Advision Studios in London and marked the beginning of Bowie's working relationship with producer Tony Visconti, which would last for the rest of Bowie's career. The song expresses Bowie's growing interest in Tibetan Buddhism, concerning a character who is put on display as a "freak" in a carnival tent. The music reflects the Buddhist themes and was likened to the works of the Beatles. Initially proposed as a B-side, it remained unreleased until The World of David Bowie compilation in March 1970. Bowie performed the song during two of his BBC radio sessions, one of which was released on Bowie at the Beeb in 2000.
English rock band Suede used "Karma Man" as an influence for their singles "The Drowners" (1992) and "Beautiful Ones" (1996). Bowie remade the song during the sessions for the Toy project in mid-2000, along with other tracks he wrote and recorded during the mid-1960s, including "Let Me Sleep Beside You", which was recorded in the same session. The remake saw an official release in 2021 with the entire Toy album as part of the Brilliant Adventure (1992–2001) box set.
Background and recording
After the commercial failure of his self-titled debut album and singles for Deram Records, David Bowie's manager Kenneth Pitt proposed he change producers. Denny Cordell turned it down but suggested his assistant Tony Visconti, a New Yorker who had worked with the Move and Manfred Mann. Bowie and Visconti became immediate friends, which the former attributed in 1976 to their mutual interests in Tibetan Buddhism. Visconti agreed to produce and arrange his next prospective single for Deram, marking the beginning of a working relationship that would last for the rest of Bowie's career. According to biographer Chris O'Leary, Bowie needed a producer who shared similar interests and working methods rather than established producers he had worked with previously, such as Tony Hatch and Mike Vernon.
According to biographer Nicholas Pegg, Bowie reportedly wrote "Karma Man", along with "Let Me Sleep Beside You", after Bowie's desire to write "some top ten rubbish". With Visconti producing and playing bass, the two tracks were recorded on 1 September 1967 at London's Advision Studios. The session took six hours to complete. Personnel hired for the session included guitarist John McLaughlin, who later found fame with the Mahavishnu Orchestra; guitarist Big Jim Sullivan, who previously contributed to David Bowie; drummer Andy White; and Visconti's then-wife Siegrid, who sang backing vocals. Visconti later expressed disappointment in the finished tracks, stating in 1977, "I think these tracks were the reason David was thrown off Deram. They really were terrible."
Composition
Like "Silly Boy Blue" from his debut album, "Karma Man" displays Bowie's growing interest in Tibetan Buddhism, which eventually led him and Visconti to join the Tibet Society. According to O'Leary, the song is a tribute to monks in exile such as Chime Rinpoche. The song's main character is presented as a "freak" and is left praying in a carnival tent as an exhibit, living in isolation away from his companions. Featuring an homage to Ray Bradbury's The Illustrated Man (1951), O'Leary analyses the track as a metaphor for "the lama in the West" or a "freak" residing in a faraway area. More positive in tone than "Silly Boy Blue", Bowie described Buddhist monks as "super-human", claiming to Melody Maker that they "could go days without eating, spend months living underground and they could live for centuries", a theme he would revisit for 1977's "Sons of the Silent Age". O'Leary compares these beliefs to the Marvel Comics' character Doctor Strange.
The Buddhist themes are reflected in the music, which O'Leary compares to "Eastern" music. The "syllable-stuffed" verses are in D major while the "richly-harmonized" refrains are in B major. Bowie moves up and down in sharps in the refrains, going from F-D-C-B on "slow down, slow down", to B-D-F on "Karma Man". The song is mostly in common time, with the bars before the refrains in half time. Author Peter Doggett likens Visconti's string arrangement to the orchestration of George Martin on the Beatles' "Eleanor Rigby" (1966). Alex Henderson of AllMusic similarly considered the track "Beatlesque". Doggett considers the song Bowie's "most creative marriages of words and music" up to that point.
Release and aftermath
"Karma Man" was intended for release as a B-side to the proposed singles "Let Me Sleep Beside You" and "When I Live My Dream". After Deram's parent company Decca Records rejected both for release as singles, "Karma Man" remained unreleased until The World of David Bowie compilation, which was issued by Decca on 6 March 1970 to cash-in on Bowie's success with "Space Oddity". Bowie himself approved the tracklisting for the compilation. Before its release, Bowie had played the track for two of his BBC radio sessions on 13 May 1968 and 5 February 1970. The first, which appeared on the Bowie at the Beeb compilation in 2000, featured a lush string arrangement and backing vocals from Visconti and Steve Peregrin Took. O'Leary considers this version superior to the studio recording.
Bowie also offered the song as a potential cover to Manfred Mann, who declined it. A previously unreleased stereo mix of the song was later released on the 2010 deluxe edition of David Bowie. Pegg notes that the song's "slow down, slow down" chorus provided inspiration for English rock band Suede's 1992 single "The Drowners", which starts its chorus with the same words and sung to the melody of Bowie's "Starman" (1972). He also finds a "melodic echo" of "Karma Man" in Suede's later single "Beautiful Ones" (1996). The band acknowledged Bowie's influence in interviews, which led to an NME interview with Bowie and lead singer Brett Anderson shortly before the release of Bowie's Black Tie White Noise and Suede's debut album in 1993, which generated publicity for the two artists in the United Kingdom.
Toy version
Bowie re-recorded "Karma Man" during the sessions for the Toy project between July and October 2000, along with other tracks Bowie wrote and recorded in the mid-1960s, including "Let Me Sleep Beside You". The lineup consisted of the members of Bowie's then-touring band: guitarist Earl Slick, bassist Gail Ann Dorsey, pianist Mike Garson, musician Mark Plati and drummer Sterling Campbell. With co-production from Bowie and Plati, the band rehearsed the songs at Sear Sound Studios in New York City before recording them as live tracks. Plati stated that he refused to listen to Bowie's original recordings of the tracks, so to prevent the originals from influencing his playing on the new versions. Overdubs were recorded at New York's Looking Glass Studios.
Toy was initially intended for release in March 2001, before it was shelved by EMI/Virgin due to financial issues. So, Bowie departed the label and recorded his next album Heathen (2002). In March 2011, tracks from the Toy sessions, excluding "Karma Man", were leaked online, attracting media attention. Ten years later, on 29 September 2021, Warner Music Group announced that Toy would get an official release on 26 November as part of the box set Brilliant Adventure (1992–2001) through ISO and Parlophone. "Karma Man" and an "alternative ending mix" of "Silly Boy Blue" were released as a single ahead of the release on 15 October. Plati said in a statement:
A separate deluxe edition, titled Toy:Box, was released on 7 January 2022, which contains two new mixes of the song: an "alternative mix" and an "Unplugged and Somewhat Slightly Electric" mix, featuring new guitar parts by Plati and Slick. Reviewing Toy, The Independents Helen Brown wrote that the remake has the "same attitude" as the original, although it "nods affectionately back at its [musical and lyrical] roots".

Good to Go, with a Tribute to Bu is an album by drummer Andrew Cyrille. It was recorded in October 1995 at Mu Rec Studio, Milan, Italy, and was released by Soul Note in 1997. On the album, Cyrille is joined by flutist James Newton and bassist Lisle Atkinson. "Bu" was Art Blakey's nickname, and was derived from Abdullah Ibn Buhaina, the name he adopted after converting to Islam.
Reception
In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow called the album "an intriguing set," and wrote: "Due to the variety of the material (mostly originals) and the consistent brilliance of Newton, this CD is recommended to fans of advanced jazz."
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 4 stars, and stated: "The set is bracketed by two takes of Cyrille's brilliant impersonation of Art Blakey in excelsis. They and the other title-piece are essays in freedom and responsiveness."
Amiri Baraka commented: "With James Newton on flute and Lisle Atkinson on bass, one does get the expected subtlety, measured color, and intimacy that that orchestration would predict. Certainly, Newton's introspective 'Oblong' speaks from this context very movingly. A deep lingering touching piece. But that is not nearly the whole story. Lisle Atkinson's emphatic bass voice makes certain of this. Atkinson, a highly respected, widely sought-after, and constantly gigging yeoman at the other rhythm post, not only powerfully and dynamically paddles this furthership, but allows Cyrille to circle back and forth inside the main flow without the least loss of drive." He concluded: "This album, with its modest construct yet powerful presence, is a gem! It will be a real find for the humble stumbler, but actually a confirmation of just how musically important and gratifying Andrew Cyrille is and has been, for a while now! And his friends, James Newton and Lisle Atkinson, don't leave them out. They contribute with equal persona to this wonderful effort. This is the kind of album you like to pull your friends' coats to, so they’ll know you know."

Stanisław Mieczysław Gebhardt (born 13 July 1928), Polish Resistance fighter, economist, émigré political activist, international social entrepreneur, veteran member of the Christian democratic movement. Since his return to Poland after the Fall of the Berlin Wall, he has been associated with centre-right politics and regarded as a political historian.
Background
Gebhardt was born in Poznań, the second child of a Polish Christian army medical officer, also Stanisław Gebhardt, and his wife Henryka, née Welfe. His father died in 1930 as a result of wounds sustained during World War I and the family moved to Kraków, where he attended school. After the outbreak of World War II, he became a scout and joined the Szare Szeregi. From 1943, aged 15, he became a partisan member of the Home Army. In 1944 he was arrested by the Gestapo and was imprisoned first in Montelupich Prison, followed by incarceration in Groß-Rosen and Mauthausen concentration camps. Upon liberation he returned to his home city to resume schooling. In 1946 he escaped through the old Polish-Romanian border and travelled south to Italy to join the ranks of the II Corps (Poland) with whom he reached the United Kingdom. The Polish Resettlement Corps enabled him to complete his school leaving certificate at Riddlesworth, Norfolk in 1948.
Student politics
In 1951 he became a member of the European Youth Parliament and became active in the International Union of Young Christian Democrats. Two years later
he was awarded a Bachelor's degree in economics by the Polish University Abroad and later attended further courses at City University London. In 1950 he met the young broadcaster journalist, , born in Turkey of Polish parents, who became General Secretary of the Paris-based Youth Section of the Central European Union of Christian Democrats. He moved to Paris to further his social and political studies at Sciences Po and continue his activism. While in Paris one of his projects was to help re-organise the money supply in the Vietnamese economy. He also tried his hand at broadcast journalism with the Polish section of Voice of America. In 1956 from his European base he began his career as an economic adviser working mainly in Latin America and in Ghana.
International activism
From 1954 to 1985 he remained on the committees of the exiled Stronnictwo Pracy (Labour Party). Between 1962 and 1976 he was engaged in the centre Esperienze Internazionali to study the functioning of democratic systems and international repercussions in Rome. From 1963 to 1972 he was also a director of the International Solidarity Foundation based in Rome. It gave him the opportunity to collaborate with the émigré Polish statesman and leading Christian democrat, Karol Popiel.
In 1964 when his friend Jerzy Kulczycki, founded the émigré publishing house, Odnowa, in London he invited Gebhardt to become a director of the company with the brief to finance and distribute in Poland titles banned under state censorship. The operation proved a success exporting to the then communist country forbidden authors, including George Orwell, Józef Garliński, Karol Popiel and Jan Nowak-Jeziorański.
As Polish representative of political organisations Gebhardt entered the international arena of Christian Democrat activism and in his youth worked alongside statesmen such as Robert Schuman.
In 1990 in Bratislava he was appointed vice president of the Christian Democratic Union of Central Europe, a position he held for four years. In 1991 at the Brussels convention he was appointed vice president of the Christian Democrats International.
Return to democratic Poland
On his return to Poland in 1990 he was involved in the reactivated "Stronnictwo Pracy 1989", whose vice president he became. In 1995 he was made vice president of Ruch Odbudowy Polski. In 1994 he became president of the Ignacy Paderewski Foundation to Rebuild Democracy and Head of the Silesian Development Corporation.
In June 2020 the Polish Culture minister, Piotr Gliński appointed him chair of the Programmes Committee of the Institute for Legacy of Polish National Thought.
Personal life
He has been married three times. The first two marriages produced a son each and the last, two sons.
Distinctions
In 1989 president Ryszard Kaczorowski (Polish government-in-exile) promoted him to Second lieutenant of the Polish Armed Forces
In 1990 he was made a knight of the Order of Polonia Restituta
In 2016 president Andrzej Duda made him a commander of the Order of Polonia Restituta

The Snail Son is a character that appears in Japanese folktales, as a type of enchanted husband that becomes disenchanted from his animal form and becomes a handsome man. Some tales are related to the cycle of Animal as Bridegroom or The Search for the Lost Husband.
Summary
Mud-snail Son
Japanese scholar Seki Keigo titled Mud-snail Son a group of tales wherein a childless couple prays to a deity (uji-gami, Kannon or Yakushi) for a son; they either find a small snail (or other animal) and adopt it as their son, or a son is given to them as answer to their prayers. As the tale continues, the mud-snail marries a human maiden, either by trickery or performing honest work to her father. The snail son finds a magic mallet or is given one and uses it on himself (or his wife uses it) to turn him into a handsome man.
The Mud-snail Chōja
Scholar Kunio Yanagita collected the tale The Mudsnail Chōja from a teller in Sannohe-gun, Aomori. In this tale, an old couple works in their rice paddy, when they hear a voice telling them to rest. They leave the rice paddy, and a small mudsnail climbs on the man's knee and begs them to be adopted as their son. They agree. Some time later, the mudsnail rides a horse to the village and stops by a great house. The mudsnail asks for the daughter of the house as a bride for him - a request the residents deny. The mudsnail threatens to scatter boiling water, then hot ashes, if they continue to deny his request. The residents surrender their daughter, who the mudsnail places on his horse and rides with her back to the old couple. His adoptive parents are delight to their son's marriage, but the same cannot be said of the human wife. The mudsnail notices his wife's angry mood and asks her to take him to the rock where the old couple pounds straw and, once there, she must crush him. The human wife follows through with his request and crushes his snail body. He then becomes a handsome man.
The Snail Chōja
Seki Keigo collected and published in his book Folktales of Japan a tale titled The Snail Chōja: in the rich lands of a choja (a local wealthy man), lives a childless poor couple. The poor wife prays at the shrine of a water deity for a son, and the deity answers her prayers: she gives birth to a tiny snail they name Snail Boy. The Snail Boy, despite his small size and appearance, wants to help his human father in driving the horses, and his father, remembering that his son was a gift from the Water Deity, decides to indulge him. The Snail Boy drives the horses with the rice tax to the choja's house. The choja and the residents see the animals and deduce that the horses cannot have come by themselves. Then the Snail Boy tells the people he brought the rice from his parents and asks to be taken off the bag with care. The choja invites the Snail Boy to have dinner with them, and he offers one of his two daughters in marriage. The eldest daughter refuses to marry the snail, but the youngest agrees. They marry and the choja gives the Snail Boy and his parents a large dowry.
One day after the marriage, the human wife convinces the snail husband to go with her to the festival of Yukashi (on April 8th). However, they stop before going to Yukashisama's temple to worship, and the snail asks her to go ahead without him. Time passes, and she loses sight of her snail husband and begins to look for him in the rice fields, by checking every snail - since it was April. She ends up dirtying her clothes from the mud and water of the rice paddies. A fine young man appears before her and reveals he was the snail, now transformed into human.
Keigo classified this tale as AT 425, "The Search for the Lost Husband".
Analysis
In Hiroko Ikeda's index of Japanese folktales, the character appears in the Japanese tale type 425A, "Mud-snail Son" or Tsubu Musuko, close to type 425 of the international Aarne-Thompson-Uther Index, "The Search for the Lost Husband", and its subtypes of animal bridegroom tales.
As cited by Richard Dorson, researcher Tomiko Yokoyama studied the character of the pond snail in Japanese tales, and considered it a messenger from a water deity.
Variants
Japan
Seki Keigo stated that the tales of a snail husband are "widely distributed" in Japan, with 35 tales reported. Hiroko Ikeda, in his index of Japanese folktales, reported 36 tales.
Keigo and Yanagita located variants from across Japan in the following regions: Akita, Aomori, Gumma, Hiroshima, Iwate, Kagawa, Kagoshima, Kochi, Kumamoto, Miyagi, Nagasaki, Niigata, Oita, Okayama, Shimane and Tokushima.
In a variant from Akita with the title The mudsnail and the girl, the snail husband gets a "mallet of long life" from the sea and asks his human wife to shake it to turn him into a human.
In a variant from Shimane titled The Snail Son-in-law, a slug is adopted by a poor old couple as their son. One day, the slug takes three grains of cooked rice and places them on the mouth of the daughter of the wealthiest man in town, and lies to her father that she stole its rice, so he demands her in return. The slug marries the woman, who gives him a needle. On the way to their house, the couple sees some demons quarreling; the slug prickles a demon with the needle and is given a magic mallet in return. The slug asks his human wife to use the mallet to turn him into a human man, and she does it.
Philippines
In a Filipino tale from the Visayan with the title The Enchanted Shell, a couple prays to God for a son, even if he looked like a little shell. So a son is born to them, very small and looking like a shell - so they named him Shell. After some adventures frightening people, Shell tells his mother he wants to marry the daughter of a chief. His mother doubts her son's intentions, but he seems resolute in his decision. So the mother goes to the village chief to make her son's bid, and the chief's daughter does agree to marry the little shell. Enraged, her father marries his daughter to the couple's son and expels her from the village to a hut outside the village. A week after the marriage, the little shell becomes a handsome man, for he was cursed into that form at birth by an evil spirit.
Adaptations
Japanese author Junji Kinoshita adapted the tale Tsubu Musuko (translated as "Shellfish Son") in his book of Japanese folktales.

Lobbying in Germany, like in many other parliamentary democracies, plays a significant role in the development of legislation. Lobbying has existed in Germany since a 1956, when the Federal Constitutional Court issued a ruling legalizing it. A mandatory lobby register was introduced in Germany effective 1 January 2022, along with a code of conduct.
Background
Members of the Bundestag have a free and independent mandate guaranteed in §38 of the German Basic Law: they are able to vote according to their conscience at any time, even over the wishes of their party or voters. This mandate allows room for outside influence from special interest groups.
As early as 1956, the Federal Constitutional Court ruled that lobbying was legal, stating that "there can be no doubt that extra-parliamentary actions of various kinds are conceivable which may serve to legitimately influence Parliament, especially insofar as they are intended to inform Members of Parliament of the opinions held by the electorate on certain political issues. In itself, therefore, there is no constitutional objection to 'interest groups' seeking to influence Members of Parliament; even mass actions by labor are not in principle impermissible."
In the year 1994, Germany criminalized bribery of a member of parliament under §108(e) of the German Criminal Code. In 1972, the Bundestag had made bribery a violation of its honor code, but this did not include criminal penalties.
Criticism
A frequent criticism of lobbying in Germany, particularly in the context of nuclear- and solar power, biotechnology, copyright/file sharing, software patents or consumer protection laws, is that the interests of industry and large corporations are promoted through extensive lobbying work at the national or EU level to the detriment of smaller companies and the general public. This accusation has also been applied to environmental organizations, trade unions, social interest groups, and churches, all of which claim that their particular interests represent the public interest. In Germany, the pharmaceutical and energy industry are considered to have a particularly strong lobbying influence as well.The former president of the Federal Constitutional Court Hans-Jürgen Papier warned that a level playing field does not exist between various special interest groups and that weaker interests are not taken into account.
, former member of Alliance 90/The Greens, described the situation:
Educational materials provided by lobbying groups to schools for economic education have also been criticized as "scientifically and politically tendentious".
Lobbyliste
In 1972, the President of the Bundestag became responsible for maintaining the voluntary , known as the "Lobbyliste". The number of entries has fluctuated: in June 2010, there were 2,136 groups registered; in July 2012, there were 2,079; in December 2014, 2,221. Due to the list's voluntary membership and the narrow definition of "interest group", the list did not fully cover the spectrum of lobbying in Parliament. In the 16th session of the Bundestag (2005–2009), there were several parliamentary initiatives aimed at improving the transparency of lobbying in politics. In their 2009 party platforms, the SPD, Green Party, and Die Linke called for the establishment of a mandatory lobby register. Of the 2,221 lobbyists on the list at the end of 2014, 575 had received an access badge to German parliamentary offices. More badges were also issued by parliamentary leaders to an unknown number of lobbyists in a process that had been kept secret. In 2015, after legal proceedings, the Federal Government was forced to disclose the names of the lobbyists who had received access badges with the help of party factions: 1,111 representatives of interest groups, corporations, law firms, and other agencies were disclosed. In February 2016, the Council of Elders of the Bundestag agreed to stop the issuance of access badges to lobbyists. For perspective, In 2017, the number of lobbyists with a Bundestag access badge eclipsed the number of members of parliament who had one: there were 706 lobbyists with an access badge and only 630 members of parliament with one.
According to a rough estimate, there are 5,000 lobbyists in Berlin, eight times the number of members of the Bundestag. According to , an organization calling for reforms of the financial services industry, the finance sector employs over 1,500 lobbyists with an annual budget of 200 million euros. Former President of the Bundestag Norbert Lammert also warned of the sector's considerable and growing influence.
Recent Developments
In 2006, a particular type of lobbyist (described by as "in the orbit of corruption") came to light: who remained in the employ of the private sector, trade associations or interest groups. In a statement, the Federal Government denied that these lobbyists exerted any political influence on the decision-making process.
The energy sector, and in particular the four large German energy companies (RWE, E.ON, EnBW and Vattenfall), was initially forced to accept the 2000 agreement to phase out nuclear power. After this agreement, the industry sought to use its lobby groups, such as (DAtF) and the (KTG), along with political allies, to revise the "nuclear consensus". The nuclear energy lobby sought to change public opinion in advance of the 2009 German Federal Election; in autumn of 2010, after an extensive media campaign, the Second Merkel Cabinet passed a phase-out extension to existing German nuclear plants. Since March 2011, the nuclear lobby has sought to delay or reverse the second nuclear phase-out.
Reports in 2017 attributed both the Cum-Ex and Dieselgate scandals to the influence of lobbyists. Activists from attributed the scandals to the Third Merkel cabinet's failure to implement binding rules on lobbyists.
Following the insolvency of Wirecard in 2020, reports emerged that former high-ranking CDU politicians had engaged in lobbying work for the company, including the former Federal Minister of Defense, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg.
A mandatory lobby register came into force in Germany on January 1, 2022, along with a code of conduct. These were implemented by the Fourth Merkel Cabinet. The scope of the register and code of conduct were widely criticized as insufficient, both by the opposition parties and the Council of Europe's anti-corruption monitoring body.

Hope Street is a British crime serial drama filmed in Donaghadee, Northern Ireland. The series premiered on BBC One Northern Ireland in November 2021, with later broadcast in the wider United Kingdom and North America in January 2022, on BBC One and Britbox, respectively. Hope Street stars an ensemble cast almost entirely collected from the local area, including Des McAleer, Amara Karan, Niall Wright, Kerri Quinn, Aaron McCusker, Niamh McGrady, Brid Brennan and Ciarán McMenamin.
Cast
Des McAleer as Barry Pettigrew
Amara Karan as DC Leila Hussain
Niall Wright as PC Callum McCarthy
Kerri Quinn as Sergeant Marlene Pettigrew
Aaron McCusker as Clint Dunwoody
Niamh McGrady as Nicole Devine
Brid Brennan as Concepta O'Hare
Ciarán McMenamin as Inspector Finn O'Hare
Premise
The sudden arrival of DC Leila Hussain in the fictional Northern Irish town of Port Devine results in local residents pondering the reason behind her arrival. Inspector Finn O'Hare knows why Leila has transferred to Port Devine, but is keeping it to himself. On Leila's arrival to the town, Karan hinted: "The secret, the reason why she's been brought to Northern Ireland, is actually a matter of life-and-death". Alongside following the events of the police department and the town's local residents, each episode features a self-contained crime story.
Development
Series co-creator and co-executive producer Paul Marquess stated that his aim whilst creating the series was to make a long-running, local drama. Due to being born in Belfast, he wanted to avoid the stereotypes that come with Northern Irish media portrayals, instead focusing on the "humour and warmth" of the area. Marquess and colleague Susan Farrell decided that the series should not focus on serial killers or the Troubles, but instead on the resilience of the community in Northern Ireland. Another of Marquess' aims was to increase the amount of television productions in Northern Ireland, specifically since he had moved from the country to pursue a career in production in his youth. Himself and Farrell created a cast and crew almost entirely formed of local talent from in and around Donaghadee, where the series is filmed. The 10-episode first series was funded by Northern Ireland Screen and it was confirmed that it would premiere on BBC One Northern Ireland in November 2021, as well as having a January 2022 broadcast on BBC One in the wider United Kingdom and Britbox in Northern America.
Cast member McMenamin was helped with his research about the police by two schoolfriends who are part of the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI). After reading the scripts for the series, he was excited to be part of Hope Street due to its modern-day portrayal of his community. He said that his experiences on set are the happiest moments of his professional life, due to the locations they film on and the cast and crew. McMenamin explained: "The craic is a different level. When you live away, to come home and be surrounded by people just as sarcastic as you, makes getting out of bed in the morning a joy". Quinn opined that it is refreshing for Hope Street not to mention the Troubles and appreciated that the scripts place a focal point on relationships and the small community of Port Devine. Wright echoed her comments, feeling that the serial drama is "a completely different take" to other dramas on television at the time of transmission. He added that the series would have plenty of twists and cliffhangers and hoped that the series would be renewed for several further series. English cast member Karan said that whilst filming for the series, the locals of Donaghadee were very proud of their town, but "went out of their way to make [her] feel welcome". She added that she loved playing Leila even though she "sticks out in her new environment like a sore thumb".
Episodes
Reception
On the Northern Irish BBC iPlayer, Hope Street received 1.6million streams on the first five episodes of series one. Stephen Patterson, writing for the Metro, gave the series four stars out of a possible five. He wrote that within minutes of the first episode, the community-driven aspect is established "incredibly well". Patterson noted that the core cast are talented, praising McGrady specifically for "stealing every scene she's in". He also praised the standalone stories in each episode, feeling that they raise important issues in ways that he did not expect from the series. He opined that Marquess had succeeded in his aims for the series to accurately portray Northern Ireland. He added that despite serial dramas such as Red Rock, The Bill and Holby City losing popularity, Hope Street "suggests that there is still something of an appetite for this kind of programming", also hoping for more series of the programme.

Frank William Bucknam (December 7, 1869 – April 30, 1942) was an American pharmacist from Yarmouth, Maine. He was appointed Maine's Commissioner of Pharmacy in 1906, and was a delegate to the United States Pharmacopeial Convention in Washington, D.C., on several occasions.
Early life
Bucknam was born on December 7, 1869, in Yarmouth, Maine, to William and Katie. He was educated in the public schools. After graduating high school, he attended business collage in Portland, Maine, graduating around the time of his 21st birthday in 1890.
Career
Bucknam entered the drug business as an apprentice with Leone R. Cook in Yarmouth's Upper Village. While there, in 1894 he received a certificate as a registered pharmacist.
In March 1894, he began running his own store at today's 108 Main Street in Yarmouth's Lower Falls. His stock included toilet articles, patent medicines, paints, oils, wallpaper, leading brands of cigars and confectionary. After six years in business, and while also balancing a role as a Yarmouth town clerk, in 1900 he purchased a store in Skowhegan, living with his wife, Gertrude, on Madison Avenue. His new business was destroyed by fire in December 1904, but he was back in business in a temporary store within 36 hours. He eventually found a new home beneath the Oxford Hotel at 78 Water Street. This building too burned down, in 1908.
In 1906, Bucknam was appointed Maine's Commissioner of Pharmacy by Governor of Maine William T. Cobb, beating five other candidates. He had received written recommendations from three-quarters of the druggists in the state.
Bucknam was a delegate to the United States Pharmacopeial Convention in Washington, D.C., on multiple occasions, including in May 1920.
Personal life
Bucknam was married twice: first to Gertrude F. Whitcomb, a native of Laurel, Indiana, from September 2, 1896, until her death on March 11, 1925, then Eva Lillian Knowlton from April 6, 1926, until his own death. He had one known child, Alvan William, with Gertrude. Alvan died in the Battle of Chateau-Thierry, France, during the latter stages of the First World War.
Death
Bucknam died on April 30, 1942, aged 72, in Skowhegan.

Hari Devi Koirala was born on 30 March 1959 (17 Chaitra 2015 BS) in Pokhara, Gandaki Province, Nepal to father Yogendra Bahadur Bhattarai and mother Jagat Kumari Bhattarai in a Hindu Bahun family. She was named Hari by her grandmother after the Hindu god Vishnu. She remembers hating her name in her youth. Koirala was the eighth child out of fourteen in her family. At a young age, she used to write poems and songs. She also sang songs to her grandmother every morning. Koirala was influenced by singers including Narayan Gopal, Tara Devi, Aruna Lama, Ram Krishna Dhakal, Lok Bahadur Chhetri, Dharmaraj Thapa, and Jhalak Man Gandarbha. Her favourites books were Muna Madan (1936) by Laxmi Prasad Devkota, and Ghumne Mechmathi Andho Manche (1968) by Bhupi Sherchan. She completed her secondary education at Barahi Secondary School in Pokhara. Koirala was arranged married to Ram Bahadur Koirala around 1977–1978 (Bikram Sambat: 2034).
Career
As Koirala was born into a Bahun family, at that time singing for money was usually done by Gandarbhas, subsequently, she was restricted to singing. However, after her marriage, Koirala's husband and his family were supportive and encouraged her to record a song. Around 1983–1984, with her husband, she went to Kathmandu to record a song. With help from Prem Raja Mahat, Koirala recorded her first album Paina Khabara at a private recording studio and paid the studio about 6 thousand Nepalese rupees. After a month, her first album was publicly released and it garnered positive feedback. The title song narrates a story about a migrant worker's wife's pain when she has not heard from her husband for months. She was inspired to write "Paina Khabara" after seeing newlyweds' husbands go to a foreign country to find work.
Koirala has sung over 800 songs, recorded over 80 albums, wrote 8 books, appeared in more than 100 music videos. Popular songs among them are "Aina Herera", "Paina Khabar", "Phoolko Basana", "Jhil Jhil Sitara", and "Aama Timro Dudhko Varale". She has sung songs about gender equality, Teej, and self-reliance. Hari Devi Koirala's name is one of the most recognisable names in the Nepalese folk music industry.
Awards and nominations
Koirala has received over 250 awards from literary, musical, and social organizations. In 2018, she was awarded the Bishesh Samman by Chahana Media. In 2021, Koirala was awarded the Kshetra Pratap Memorial Literary Award for her contributions to folk music, folk culture, and folk literature.

Tetraethylammonium trichloride (also known as Mioskowski reagent) is an chemical compound with the formula [NEt4][Cl3] consisting of a tetraethylammonium cation and a trichloride as anion. The trichloride is also known as trichlorine monoanion representing one of the simplest polychlorine anions. Tetraethylammonium trichloride is used as reagent for chlorinations and oxidation reactions.
Properties
At room temperature, tetraethylammonium trichloride is a yellow solid which is soluble in polar organic solvents (e.g., methylene chloride or acetonitrile). As it is a strong oxidant and chlorinating agent it is reacting with most organic solvents (see Applications). The trichloride can be considered as an symmetric anion as found in, e.g., [NnPr4][Cl3], which is formed by a 3c-4e bond.
Preparation
Commonly, tetraethylammonium trichloride is prepared by the reaction of tetraethylammonium chloride and elemental chlorine in methylene chloride at room temperature. After evaporation of the solvent, tetraethylammonium trichloride is obtained as a yellow solid.
[NEt4]Cl + Cl2 → [NEt4][Cl3]
Recently, an alternative preparation of tetraethylammonium trichloride has been described using tetraethylammonium chloride and potassium peroxymonosulfate as oxidant.
Applications
In general, tetraethylammonium trichloride has a similar reactivity compared to elemental chlorine and other trichlorides, e.g., triethylmethylammonium trichloride. As tetraethylammonium trichloride is a solid and can be dissolved in methylene chloride or acetonitrile, it is used as an easier to handle alternative to elemental chlorine, in particular for the synthesis of intermediates in natural product synthesis. Tetraethylammonium trichloride reacts with alkenes to the corresponding vicinal 1,2-dichlorinated alkanes and similarly with alkynes to the corresponding trans-dichlorinated alkenes. Electron rich arenes are chlorinated in para-position. While aldehydes are dichlorinated in alpha-position, ketones react to the monochlorinated alpha-chloroketones. In presence of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane tetraethylammonium trichloride is a useful oxidant for the oxidation of primary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and of secondary alcohols to the corresponding ketones. For compounds bearing both a primary and a secondary alcohol, selective oxidation of the secondary alcohol is observed. Acetals undergo C-H chlorination of the tertiary C-H bond providing the corresponding chlorinated acetals.

Triethylmethylammonium trichloride (also known as Riedel reagent) is an ionic liquid consisting of an unsymmetric triethylmethylammonium cation and a trichloride anion. The trichloride is also known as trichlorine monoanion representing one of the simplest polychlorine anions.
Preparation
Triethylmethylammonium trichloride is prepared by the reaction of triethylmethylammonium chloride and elemental chlorine gas providing triethylmethylammonium trichloride as a yellow ionic liquid at room temperature.
[NEt3Me]Cl + Cl2 → [NEt3Me][Cl3]
Structure and chemical bonding
According to the halogen bonding concept, the trichloride anion can be described as a donor-acceptor complex consisting of a chloride anion (the halogen donor) and a dichlorine molecule (the halogen acceptor). By donation of electron density of the chloride anion into the σ-hole of the dichlorine molecule lying along the Cl-Cl bonding axis. In this way, the trichloride anion ([Cl-Cl-Cl]-) is formed which theoretically adopts a linear geometry with Cl-Cl bonds of equal length. However, the real structure of the trichloride anion is typically slightly different due to interaction of the trichloride anion with cations or anisotropic effects in the solid state.
A more precise definition of triethylmethylammonium trichloride is given by the sum formula [NEt3Me][Cl(Cl2)n] where n is the number of equivalents of dichlorine that are bonded. By addition of elemental chlorine to [NEt3Me]Cl (n = 0), the value of n increases continuously forming the trichloride [NEt3Me][Cl3] (n = 1), the pentachloride [NEt3Me][Cl5] (n = 2) and, at higher chlorine loadings, higher polychlorides. For values of n < 0.8, [NEt3Me][Cl(Cl2)n] is a yellow solid, while for n > 0.8 [NEt3Me][Cl(Cl2)n] exists as an ionic liquid at room temperature.
Applications
Triethylmethylammonium trichloride shows a similar reactivity like tetraethylammonium trichloride or elemental chlorine but is easier to handle than chlorine gas as it is a liquid at room temperature. For instance, alkenes are chlorinated with triethylmethylammonium trichloride providing the corresponding vicinal 1,2-dichloroalkanes. Recently, the reaction of triethylmethylammonium trichloride with carbon monoxide to phosgene was described. In this reaction, carbon monoxide is oxidized at room temperature and in the dark, while, for comparison, the reaction of chlorine gas and carbon monoxide requires further activation by sunlight (see phosgene). Alternatively, the reaction can be performed utilizing catalytically amounts of [NEt3Me]Cl in the presence of elemental chlorine forming presumably the catalytically active species [NEt3Me][Cl3] which reacts with carbon monoxide yielding phosgene and forming [NEt3Me]Cl.
[NEt3Me][Cl3] + CO → COCl2 + [NEt3Me]Cl

The Novosibirsk constituency (No.135) is a Russian legislative constituency in Novosibirsk Oblast. Zayeltsovsky constituency previously was based entirely in Novosibirsk, however, in 2015 Novosibirsk Oblast constituencies were gerrymandered. As the result, former Zayeltsovsky constituency was split between Novosibirsk and Central constituencies with the former gaining most of the dissolved constituency. Novosibirsk constituency also took rural northern Novosibirsk Oblast from Barabinsk constituency.

Joseph Andrew Felmet (May 31, 1921 – 1994) was an American journalist, pacifist, and civil rights activist. He worked as a reporter for The Hartford Times and the Winston-Salem Journal. He participated in the Journey of Reconciliation in 1947, considered the precursor to the Freedom Riders.
Early life
Felmet was born on May 31, 1921, in Asheville, North Carolina. He attended Lee H. Edwards High School and delivered newspapers for The Asheville Times. He graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1942 with a bachelor's degree in journalism.
Civil rights, journalism, and politics
After graduating from college, Felmet worked as a reporter for the Asheville Advocate. In 1942, he was sent to a conscientious objector camp for failing to register with the Selective Service. He was released after agreeing to register with the Selective Service after spending six months in the camp, but in 1943, he was drafted to the United States Army and refused to report. Felmet was sentenced to one year and one day in prison, but was released after six months. After the war, he joined the United World Federalists. He registered with the Socialist Party of America. In 1946, he became secretary of the Workers' Defense League (WDL). He was sentenced to 15 days in jail in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in February 1947 for not registering with the city prior to canvassing in African-American neighborhoods for the WDL.
In April 1947, Felmet participated in the Journey of Reconciliation, the precursor to the Freedom Riders, challenging racial segregation. Felmet, Bayard Rustin, Igal Roodenko, and Andrew Johnson were arrested in North Carolina for violating local Jim Crow laws regarding segregated seating on public transportation. They were sentenced to serve on a chain gang for 30 days.
Felmet worked as a reporter for The Hartford Times in the 1950s. He returned to North Carolina in 1955 when he accepted a job with the Winston-Salem Journal, where he worked in the editorial staff. Felmet retired from journalism in 1969.
In the 1974 elections, Felmet ran for the Democratic Party nomination for in the United States House of Representatives, challenging incumbent Republican Wilmer Mizell on an anti-war platform. He lost the primary election to Stephen L. Neal, receiving 5,141 votes to Neal's 28,379, and Neal went on to defeat Mizell. Felmet ran for the Democratic Party nomination for the United States Senate in the 1978 election. Luther H. Hodges Jr., who received 38% of the vote, and John Ingram, getting 26% of the vote, advanced to a runoff election.
Felmet delivered a petition to President Jimmy Carter and Governor Jim Hunt seeking a pardon on behalf of the Wilmington Ten. As a member of the War Resisters League, Felmet petitioned President Ronald Reagan to end the draft, which President Carter had reinstated during his administration. He was arrested on the campus of North Carolina State University for trespassing when he refused to stop circulating petitions. Felmet filed a brief with the court challenging the university's restrictions on outsiders communicating with students as a violation of his First Amendment rights. The university dropped the charges and agreed to review their policy. Felmet enrolled at Wake Forest University to study the Russian language, and petitioned the United States Information Agency for issues of Amerika, the Russian-language magazine published by the United States Department of State. They declined his request based on the Smith–Mundt Act, a 1948 anti-propaganda law that prohibits domestic distribution of its materials meant for foreign distribution.
Personal life
In 1952, Felmet married Marianne Ryon of Stonington, Connecticut.
Felmet died in 1994, with the October 20, 1994, edition of the Winston-Salem Chronicle simply mentioning that he had died "recently". In lieu of a memorial service, he requested mourners donate to the War Resisters League, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, or the Unitarian Church of Winston-Salem.

Square is a payments system developed by Block, Inc. Square is a payments platform aimed at small and medium businesses that allows them to accept credit card payments and use tablet computers as payment registers for a point-of-sale system.
History
The original inspiration for Square occurred to Jack Dorsey in 2009 when Jim McKelvey (a friend of Dorsey) was unable to complete a $2,000 sale of his glass faucets and fittings because he could not accept credit cards.
At the TechCrunch Disrupt conference in May 2011, Square announced the release of two new apps, Square Card Case (later rebranded as Square Wallet) and Square Register. Square Wallet, before it was removed from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store in 2014, allowed customers to set up a tab and pay for their order by providing their name (or a barcode) using a stored credit, debit, or gift card.
In August 2012, Starbucks announced it would use Square to process transactions with customers who pay via debit or credit card. In February 2014, Whole Foods Market announced it would use Square Register in select stores' sandwich counters, pizzerias and coffee, juice, wine and beer bars.
In June 2013, the firm launched Square Market, which allows sellers to create a free online storefront with online payment processing functionality. In March 2014, the firm announced it will start allowing sellers to accept bitcoin on their own storefronts through Square Market. The seller will take no risk on bitcoin value fluctuations.
Devices
Square Reader
The Square Reader was the firm's first product. It accepts credit card payments by connecting to a mobile device's audio jack. The original version consisted of a simple read head directly wired to a 3.5 mm audio jack, through which unencrypted, analog card information was fed to smartphones for amplification and digitization.
In April 2012, rival payment company Verifone claimed that the Square system at the time was insecure and that a reasonably skilled programmer could write a replacement app which could use the Square device to skim a credit card and return its details, because of the lack of encryption. VeriFone posted a demonstration video and sample skimming app to its web site. Dorsey called VeriFone's claims "neither fair nor accurate", noting that all card data can also be compromised by visually examining the card and that even if there were a compromise, card issuers offered fraud protection.
Square introduced strong encryption on its devices, and neither card numbers, nor magnetic stripe data, nor security codes are stored on Square client devices. The current technology is Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI) compliant and Verisign certified.
As of March 2013, Square provided its magnetic stripe card readers to users for free. Square charges $99 for Square Stand and $29 for its chip-based Square Reader. The Square app is also freely downloadable from the App Store and the Google Play Store.
In May 2013, the firm announced that its mobile payments service was available in Japan after agreeing to a partnership with Sumitomo Mitsui Card Corporation. The fee for transactions would be 3.25% in Japan. It launched in the UK in 2017.
In July 2014, ahead of the October 2015 EMV liability shift, the firm announced a card reader that would accept chip cards and contactless cards to supplement the standard Reader's support of traditional magnetic stripe card transactions. In June 2015, Apple announced Square would release a new Reader capable of also accepting Apple Pay and other contactless payments. In August 2018, Square released a version of its magstripe reader with a Lightning connector, allowing it to be used on iPhones without a headphone jack.
Square charges a fee of 2.6% plus $0.10 on every electronically scanned credit card transaction or 3.50% plus $0.15 per manually-entered transaction. There are no monthly fees or set-up costs. The firm claims that its costs are, on average, lower than the costs charged by conventional credit card processors. Swiped payments are deposited directly into a user's bank account within 1-2 business days. In some instances, Square may withhold payments to its users pending issues related to chargebacks. The firm also generates revenue from selling other services to businesses, including subscription-based products such as Customer Engagement, Square Payroll, and Square Register. For example, with Square Payroll, Square charges sellers a monthly fee of $20 plus $5 for each employee paid.
Other devices
In June 2013, the firm unveiled Square Stand, which turns the Apple iPad into a more complete point-of-sale system. In 2015, Square launched a bluetooth-connected reader that works for Android and iOS devices to accept chip and contactless payments through their platform. In October 2017, a standalone point-of-sale system, Square Register, was announced for small to medium-sized businesses. It consists of a merchant tablet and a customer tablet, with a built-in swipe, chip, and tap reader. In October 2018, the company introduced a self-contained Terminal product that features a display, prints receipts, and accepts chip, swipe, and contactless payments.
Services
In December 2012, Square began allowing merchants to issue virtual gift cards; a QR code is scanned from the customer's smartphone to use the funds. Physical gift cards were added in the service in 2014.
In 2013, Square launched Square Market, which enable business to accept online payments.
In 2014, Square launched Square Capital, which offers business financing to merchants using Square.
In 2014, an online booking tool was added to the firm's offerings, allowing small businesses to accept appointments on their website. The service only accepts scheduled appointments based on a service provider's availability, and does not accept restaurant reservations.
In 2015, the firm launched Square Payroll, a tool for small business owners to process payroll for their employees. The product, available in all 50 states + DC, automatically handles a business's withholdings, payroll payments, and tax filings.
In 2018, Square began allowing merchants to develop custom interfaces for the platform, via an application programming interface.
After receiving approval in 2020 from the FDIC and the Utah Department of Financial Institutions, the company announced plans to launch small business-focused Square Financial Services in 2021, based in Salt Lake City.
Reception
Business Insider praised the product for its "ease of use, simplicity and elegance". Business Insider favorably compared Jack Dorsey with Steve Jobs for what they called his "entrepreneurial vision and charisma". The Next Web praised Square's website, squareup.com, for its design and aesthetic appeal. The product was also showcased at Apple's iPad 2 event. GigaOM called the product a disruptive innovation.
Banning firearms
In May 2013, Square announced it would no longer allow firearms-related transactions to be performed using its devices or software. The company amended its terms of service for retailers to ban sales of "firearms, firearm parts or hardware, and ammunition; or ... weapons and other devices designed to cause physical injury". The company denied that this move was related to the increased debate over gun control.
Controversy
In June 2019, The Wall Street Journal reported that Square inadvertently sent transaction receipts to the wrong email address, leading to adverse consequences such as outing one woman's impending divorce.
A Canadian food truck which sold Cuban coffee faced a loss of C$14,000 because transactions were processed through a Canadian subsidiary of Chase Manhattan Bank, contracted by Square to handle its Canadian accounts. As the parent company is governed by US laws, the bank would have been subject with charges of trafficking in prohibited Cuban goods if it had processed the fund transactions.
Square marks certain merchants as high risk, a designation that can can come suddenly and without warning. Merchants classified as risky can have 20-30% of the funds they acquire withheld to handle chargebacks and disputes, preventing merchants from withdrawing all their earned revenue. Square has received criticism from affected merchants due to the opaque nature of the process, its suddenness, and difficulties in appealing the designation.

Bienal de Quadrinhos de Curitiba is a Brazilian comic book festival held since 2011 in Curitiba.
History
In 2011, the event Gibicon nº 0 ("Gibi" is an informal way of calling comic books in Brazil) took place, with the subtitle "Curitiba's International Comics Convention", organized by Quadrinhofilia Produções Artísticas with Znort Ilustradores. They were invited by Curitiba's Cultural Foundation. There were several events, such as meetings, debates, lectures and exhibitions, held in different places in Curitiba (Gibiteca de Curitiba, Museum of Photography, Memorial de Curitiba, Goethe-Institut, Alliance française, Instituto Cervantes, Sesc Paço da Liberdade and Jokers Pub), with 32 Brazilian guests and seven international guests: Hervé Bourhis, Fabio Civitelli, Lucio Filippucci, Jens Hardes and Salvador Sanz. The event, which was made as a pilot project in anticipation of the 30th anniversary of Gibiteca (which would take place in 2012), had as main objective to assess the receptivity of the local public to this kind of event.
Gibicon reached about 10 thousand visitors in the "test" edition, so the event became regular from 2012 with Gibicon nº 1, this time effectively celebrating the 30th anniversary of Gibiteca de Curitiba. The event, whose periodicity was defined as a biennial for the subsequent editions, continued to be held in several locations around the city and increased the number of guests and related activities. The main activity was the exhibition Tesouros da Grafipar, in honor of Grafipar, a historic publishing house from Paraná.
In 2014, Gibicon nº 2 stopped being held in several places, concentrating its activities in the Municipal Museum of Art (MuMA). Exhibitions were held in honor of artists Solda (who also won the first edition of the Claudio Seto Award, started this year), David Lloyd, Kim Jung Gi, among others. This edition reached 20 thousand visitors and had more than 30 booths, in addition to several tables of independent artists.
With the end of the partnership between the event's organizers and Quadrinhofilia, which owned the name "Gibicon", the event was officially renamed the Bienal de Quadrinhos de Curitiba (Curitiba Comics Biennial) and had a mixed curatorship, formed by Mitie Taketani (owner of Itiban Comic Shop), by journalist Heitor Pitombo and by comic artists André Caliman, Lobo and Rafael Coutinho, in addition to consulting with Ibraim Roberson and Antônio Éder. With a project approved by the Rouanet Law, this edition received about 30 thousand people and brought as a novelty the availability of a space of 1,000 m2 in three areas of the event for the Comics Fair, a space destined for artists, publishers and exhibitors to present and sell comics and related works. In addition, the following year, Curitiba's Cultural Foundation made official the intention to intersperse the Bienal with the event Traços Curitibanos, which is focused only on local artists and whose first edition, in 2015, also took place at MuMA.
In 2018, the Bienal had as its theme "The city in comics" (with the proposal to discuss the relationship between the urban environment and the body in different cultures) and curated by Mitie Taketani and journalist and translator Érico Assis. With more than 300 exhibitors and more than 60 invited artists, the event received about 30 thousand people. One of the main highlights was the exhibition of works of visual arts by architect Key Imaguire Jr., produced since the 1970s but until then unknown to the public. The works were presented at the insistence of Mitie, who had met the production when she invited the architect to be honored at the event.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 edition of the Bienal was postponed to the following year, but an online edition of the event was still held in August with similar characteristics to the in-person event, with exhibitions, lectures, workshops, chats and debates (all carried out with the support of the event's social networks and digital platforms such as Zoom). The event was curated once again by Mitie, this time with the comic artist Fabio Zimbres and with the special curatorship of the musician and producer Vadeco Schettin on account of the event's theme: "Comics & music: the relationship and the mutual influences of these two forms of artistic expression".
In 2021, however, with the maintenance of restrictions for face-to-face events in Curitiba, the sixth edition of the Bienal was online again, but this time during five months, from August to December. It had the same theme as the 2020 online edition, "Comics & Music". In addition to having 140 national and international artists invited, the event also brought the launch of an unprecedented collection with works by Luiz Gê, artist honored in the edition, an online comics fair, lectures, debates, workshops, co-creation of works and actions aimed at to the public of cities in the metropolitan region of Curitiba.
Awards
In 2013, the then Gibicon received two of the most important Brazilian comics awards: the Jayme Cortez Trophy (which is part of Prêmio Angelo Agostini and aims to reward great contributions to Brazilian comics) and the Troféu HQ Mix for Best Event.
In 2020, the Bienal was again awarded at the Troféu HQ Mix, this time as Best Exhibition for "Angola Janga de Marcelo D'salette em Angola/Moçambique". The traveling exhibition was part of the "Brasil em Quadrinhos" project, a partnership between the Bienal and Itamaraty, and took the works of comics artist Marcelo D'Salete (especially the graphic novel Angola Janga) to Angola and Mozambique the previous year.
Locations and dates
Prêmio Claudio Seto
In 2014, Bienal de Quadrinhos de Curitiba started the Prêmio Claudio Seto (Claudio Seto Award), in honor of the comic artist of the same name. Artists are awarded for their body of work, receiving the Maria Erótica Trophy (a famous character by Claudio Seto) and winning exhibitions, lectures and debates on the life and work of those honored.

Deutsche Depeschendienst (ddp) – German Dispatch Service (ddp) was a news agency based in Berlin, Germany. The ddp reported from Germany and abroad on events with a significance for Germany.
The agency was founded in 1971. In 2009 ddp took over the German service of Associated Press (AP). The service was after the merger DAPD news agency and became a full service provider for news from Germany and abroad. dapd went bankrupt and ceased its service on 11 April 2013 without replacement.
History
The US news agency UPI ceased its German-language service in the early 1970s. As a result, the German Dispatch Service was founded in 1971 by eight former UPI employees. Among them were journalists renowned in Germany such as Martin Süßkind and others. ddp was the first German alternative to the German top dog Deutsche-Presse-Agentur dpa, which is often perceived as a snoring monopolist.
After reunification, the former GDR news agency ADN was taken over in 1992. After various acquisitions – for example in the market of photo agencies – ddp bought the German service of the US agency Associated Press (AP) under the then owners Martin Vorderwülbecke and Peter Löw.
After the took over of German service of Associated Press (AP), the new DAPD News Agency latet only till 2013 by bankrupty.

The Battle of Mariupol was fought between the 1st Zadneprovsk Ukrainian Soviet Division and the Volunteer Army, during March 1919.
History
On March 19, the first offensive of the Dnieper Division took place, during which Nestor Makhno's troops forced the enemy to flee to the city, after a long firefight. This caused great panic among the troops of the Volunteer Army. On March 21, after reading an order for the brigade to advance in the eastern direction, Makhno explained that he could not take Mariupol at once and had to retreat from it. Troops were subsequently redeployed and the city was occupied by the 8th and 9th regiments. The city's capture was complicated by the presence in the raid of Entente warships. But Mariupol was surrounded on three sides, and in the coming days would be taken.
On March 25, the second offensive began, and on March 27 the city was occupied by the Makhnovist guerrillas. The people greeted them joyfully, and a committee of the underground Bolshevik Communist Party, a military-revolutionary committee, and a commissariat of the Soviet People's Militia were immediately organized in the city. The head of the 1st Zadneprovsk Division, Pavel Dybenko, telegraphed from the liberated Mariupol to the Soviet People's Commissar of the USSR:
Nestor Makhno himself was awarded the Order of the Red Banner.

The Ministry of Gender, Family and Children () is a government ministry of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
History
An Executive Secretariat responsible for gender was established by Presidential Order on 8 February 1980. As the General Secretariat for the Status of Women, this evolved into a branch of the state party, the Popular Movement of the Revolution (MPR). It became the Department of Women's Affairs in 1983, and was kept as the Department of Women's Affairs in the February 1985 Executive Council. In 1987 it was detached from the government, as the MPR Executive Secretariat with responsibility for gender.
In 1990 a Ministry for Gender was established. In 1992, it became the General Secretariat, and was attached to other Ministries: from 1992 to 1992, the Ministry of Health, National Solidarity, and the Family, and from 1994 to 2001, the Ministry for Health, Welfare, and Family Affairs. In 2003 the Ministry of Gender and Family was recreated, and in 2006 it became the Ministry of Gender, Family and Children.

Tappu Chesi Pappu Koodu () is a 2002 Indian Telugu-language comedy film directed by A. Kodandarami Reddy and produced by Mohan Babu under Sree Lakshmi Prasanna Pictures. The film stars Mohan Babu, Srikanth, Gracy Singh, Sujatha and Radhika Chaudhari. It is a remake of Priyadarshan 2001 Malayalam film Kakkakuyil.
The film's score and soundtrack is composed by M. M. Keeravani. Tappu Chesi Pappu Koodu released on 22 May 2002.
Plot
Sivaji is an unemployed person who is in a dire need of money for his mother's medical treatment. Lying to his family that he is leaving for the United States, Sivaji arrives in Mumbai instead to find a job. However, he loses his luggage immediately after arriving in the city but finds Ramesh, his old friend who makes a living by cheating people.
With no option left, Sivaji joins Ramesh in the cheating business to make easy money. Together with Pedda Koteswara Rao and Cheecha, the gang carries out a bank robbery. Planning to steal the entire share of the money, Cheecha anonymously informs the police about the robbery. She informs that it was Koteswara Rao who carried out the entire plan. Before being arrested, Koteswara Rao puts all the money in the locker of another bank and nobody has any idea about where the money is hidden.
Meanwhile, a blind old couple, Zamindar Bhupati (also called Raju gaaru) and his wife are rich Telugus living in Mumbai. Their son and daughter-in-law are deceased and they lost their eyesight due to an accident. Their grandson Bujji is studying in the United States but they have not seen him in several years. The old couple takes the help of a paan seller to read any letters they receive. One day, they get a telegram. Because the paan seller cannot read English, they ask Ramesh to read out for them. While it is written that Bujji would visit Mumbai after six months, Ramesh senses an opportunity in it and tells them that Bujji would be arriving the following day.
Ramesh introduces Sivaji as Bujji to the old couple in order to take cover from the police. The old couple has the ability to remember the voice and touch of any person they meet. As things turn out, they register Ramesh's body and Sivaji's voice as Bujji. While this is going on, they happen to tell that Bujji has a girlfriend in the US. Much to their astonishment, Radhika Rani arrives at their house and introduces herself as Bujji's girlfriend. She acts as an impediment to the plans of Ramesh and Sivaji. When Radhika Rani realizes that Ramesh and Sivaji are not actually cheating the old couple for money, she reveals to them that Bujji has died in an accident back in the states and she had come to Mumbai to deliver the news of Bujji's death to Raja gaaru. As the couple seemed happy and cheerful while seeing Bujji in Ramesh and Sivaji, she decided not to tell the truth and tag along.
Ramesh, however, gets desperate for money. He steals a valuable idol from the old couple's house and decides to sell it. Sivaji confronts Ramesh about the same but he leaves angrily. When a guilty Sivaji confesses the same to Raju gaaru, he requests them to continue the drama as his wife would not digest that her grandson has died. Raju gaaru's wife arrives calling for Bujji and Ramesh arrives just in time after feeling remorse over his actions. Feeling elated, Raju gaaru hugs Ramesh and Sivaji affectionately.

Soundtrack
The soundtrack album consists of five singles composed by M. M. Keeravani.
Reception
In his review for Zamin Ryot, Griddaluru Gopalrao opined that Kodandarami Reddy had succeeded in creating an entertaining film, though the humour felt too slap stick at times. Reviewing the performances, Gudipoodi Srihari of The Hindu wrote, "Mohanbabu and Srikanth set themselves well in the roles. Gracy singh makes her presence interesting towards the end of the film. Balayya and Sujata live in their roles." On the technical front, he stated that Keeravani's music and Jayaram's cinematography "accentuate the dramatic impact of the film." A reviewer from Sify, who rated the film 3/5, wrote: "The film sags due to its weak script and buffoonery passing off as a comedy."

Joséphine Pagnier (born 4 June 2002) is a French ski jumper, who won two medals at the 2020 Winter Youth Olympics, and won the French national championship in 2019 and 2020. She competed in the normal hill event at the 2022 Winter Olympics.
Career
In 2016, Pagnier jumped over for the first time in her career, during a junior event at Fichtelbergschanzen, Germany. She was aged 14 at the time. She won the two 2016–17 FIS Ski Jumping Continental Cup events in Notodden, Norway. She made her FIS Ski Jumping World Cup debut in 2017 in Hinterzarten, Germany. She was part of the French team that won the ladies' team event at the 2018 Nordic Junior World Ski Championships. Pagnier won the French National Ski Jumping Championships in 2019 and 2020. She was promoted to the French senior team ahead of the 2019–20 season; she was the only French female ski jumper added to the senior team that season.
At the 2020 Winter Youth Olympics, Pagnier won a silver in the girls' individual event and a bronze medal in the mixed team event. She also competed in the ski jumping part of the mixed team Nordic Combined event, where France finished fourth. At the 2021 Nordic Junior World Ski Championships, Pagnier came second in the girl's individual event. At the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2021, Pagnier came 16th in the women's individual event. She won one 2021–22 FIS Cup summer event in Gérardmer, France, and finished third in another. She came fourth at one 2021–22 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup event in Willingen, Germany, and sixth in another event at the same venue.
Pagnier qualified to compete in the normal hill event at the 2022 Winter Olympics. A few days prior to the Games, she finished fourth in a World Cup event. At the Games, Pagnier finished seventh overall in the first round, and finished 11th after the second and final round. She was unable to compete in the mixed team event at the Games, as there were too few French athletes to compete with. After the Games, Pagnier was described as the future of French ski jumping.
Personal life
Pagnier is from Chaux-Neuve, and as of 2022, she lives in Franche-Comté, France. She is coached by her father Joël.

The Battle of Mospyne was a military clash between units of the 1st Zadneprovsk Ukrainian Soviet Division and the Volunteer Army.
History
In early 1919, Mospyne was occupied by units of the Dnieper Division. Having established themselves on the outskirts of the village, they fought defensive battles on the approaches to Yuzivka. On May 13, 1919, Shkuro's troops launched an active offensive on the Mospyne area. The 9th Zadniprovsky and 55th (formerly 15th) Ukrainian regiments fought defensive battles. To reinforce the Makhnovists, the 1st Soviet Rifle Regiment under Chaika's command left the Volnovakha station. Shkurovtsy attacked in columns and with the support of three armored trains armed with six-inch naval guns and two tanks. After fierce resistance, they pushed the Makhnovists to the Starobesheve- line and left Mospyne and behind.
In this battle the 9th Zadniprovsky and especially the 55th regiment suffered heavy losses. In the latter, almost the entire membership of the Communist Party died, and about 500 soldiers remained in the regiment.

Sir William Fry Channell (31 August 1804 – 26 February 1873) was a judge and Baron of the Exchequer.
Early life
Channell was born in Bermondsey, then in Surrey, on 31 August 1804 to Pike and Mary Channell. His father was from Devon and had served in the Royal Navy under Admiral Nelson during the Battle of Copenhagen (1801). Channell's only education was at private schools and later in life he often complained about his lack of a formal education.
Career
He joined the Inner Temple and was called to the bar in 1827. He built a successful practice in Surrey and Home circuits, joining the order of Serjeants-at-law in 1840, leading the court with Serjeant Talfourd until 1846, when serjeants lost their monopoly of audience. In 1844, when Sir Frederic Thesiger became solicitor-general, Channell received a patent of precedence and later led the Home circuit.
In 1857 he was appointed by Lord Chancellor Cranworth to succeed Baron Alderson as a Baron of the Exchequer in the Court of Exchequer, and was knighted. He served until January 1873 when severe asthma forced his resignation. He died a month later, on 26 February 1873, at his home, 2 Clarendon Place, Hyde Park Gardens and was buried in a family grave on the western side of Highgate Cemetery.
Personal life
He married Martha Hawkes in 1834 and they had a son, Arthur Moseley Channell (1838–1928), who was a noted rower and High Court judge, a daughter, Gertrude, and two other children, who died in infancy.

The closing ceremony of the 1988 Winter Olympics was held on February 28, 1988, beginning at 19:30 MST (3:30 UTC, February 29) at McMahon Stadium in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The closing ceremony had 60,000 people in attendance, including 10,000 volunteers who received free admission. It was the first Winter Olympics to stage a closing ceremony outdoors.
The closing ceremonies consisted of a Parade of Athletes less formal then the opening ceremonies as athletes from all nations paraded together. The world's largest temporary ice rink was built in McMahon Stadium to showcase amateur figure skating teams as part of the closing ceremonies.
The Olympic flag was lowered and Mayor of Calgary Ralph Klein passed the flag to the president of the IOC who passed it on to Henri Dujol, Mayor of the French city of Albertville, the host of the 1992 Winter Olympics. After a speech by the President of the Organizing Committee for the Games, the President of the IOC proclaims the closing of the Calgary Games and the Olympic flame was slowly extinguished.

Lawrence Fernandes (born 1945) is a Ugandan former first-class cricketer.
Fernandes was born in Uganda Protectorate in 1942. He spent sometime in Mombasa in Kenya, before returning to Uganda in the 1960s. An all-rounder and described as the best gully fielder in Uganda, Fernandes made a single appearance in first-class cricket for the East Africa cricket team against the touring Indians at Kampala in 1967. Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed for 7 runs in the East African first innings by Venkataraman Subramanya, while in their second innings he was dismissed for 32 runs by B. S. Chandrasekhar. Between 1963 and 1970, Fernandes also played minor matches for Uganda, in which he formed a potent spin bowling partnership with Kishore Vasani. In 1972, he had been named in the Uganda squad for their upcoming internationals, but as an Asian-Ugandan he was expelled from Uganda by Idi Amin in the same year.

Castello Pasquini stands in Castiglioncello, in the Comune of Rosignano Marittimo, near the railway station.
History
The Pasquini Castle was built starting from 1889 as the residence of Baron Lazzaro Patrone, who at the same time had purchased large plots of land from Diego Martelli. During the works the old buildings of the past property were demolished, while the agricultural land was transformed into a lush park of romantic imprint.
The castle, built in imitation of medieval buildings, was flanked by the house of the cashier, in Gothic Revival architecture, and a chapel decorated according to Eclecticism trends.
Moreover, Baron Patrone offered part of his land for the construction of the railway station of Castiglioncello, on the condition that the travellers' building took up the style of the castle in order to harmonize with it. The same baron was also interested in the development of the entire locality, but his projects, like that of the hippodrome, were not followed.
In 1938 the castle was sold to other owners and around the forties it was bought by the Pasquini family. After a period of abandonment, in 1981, became the property of the municipal administration of Rosignano Marittimo, which over time has made it the center of a series of events and cultural events, such as literary prize Castiglioncello-Costa degli Etruschi.

Concrete Rose is a young adult novel by Angie Thomas, published January 12, 2021 by Balzer + Bray.
Reception
Concrete Rose was a New York Times and IndieBound best seller. The book was generally well-received, including starred reviews from Booklist, Kirkus Reviews, School Library Journal, and Shelf Awareness.
TIME's Cleyvis Natera stated, "Thomas’ genius is her ability to craft one man's history in a way that illuminates the forces that brought us to this critical juncture." Nic Stone of The Washington Post echoed the sentiment, saying,[O]ne of my favorite things about Angie Thomas is that she’s always willing to dig a little deeper, to peel back another layer. This is what makes her latest novel, Concrete Rose — her best, in my opinion — a gift. It not only eviscerates the 'fast Black girl' stereotype and debunks the myth of the Bailing Black Baby Daddy, it gives us insight into the life of a boy most people wouldn’t even attempt to look at beyond the surface.The audiobook, narrated by Dion Graham, also received a positive review from Booklist, who said,Graham is a natural and convincing storyteller. Graham’s solo narration showcases a keen ability to embody both the innocent and the often-troubled side of Maverick. Graham’s voice also adapts well to fast-moving scenes, acquainting listeners to the edginess of street life as well as the unrelenting wisdom of a community that continues to grow amid adversity. Kirkus Reviews named Concrete Rose was named one of the best books of 2021.

Taxi to Gibraltar () is a 2019 Spanish-Argentine buddy road movie and madcap comedy with adventure elements directed by Alejo Flah, starring Joaquín Furriel, Dani Rovira and Ingrid García-Jonsson.
Plot
Diego (an Argentine con-man), León (a grumpy Spanish taxi driver) and Sandra (a woman dissatisfied with her life), embark on a road trip to Gibraltar set to look out for a gold treasure purportedly hidden in the tunnels below The Rock.
Cast
Production
The screenplay was penned by alongside . A Spain–Argentina co-production, the film was produced by La Terraza Films, Atresmedia Cine, Ikiru Films, Sacromonte Films, Código Sur Producciones and La Mano de Dios la Película AIE alongside Film Tonic and AZ Films. It had the participation of Atresmedia, Amazon and Canal Sur, funding from the ICAA, support from , and the collaboration of INCAA and the Ibermedia programme. It was shot in Madrid, La Línea, and Gran Canaria.
Release
Taxi to Gibraltar screened as the opening film of the 22nd Málaga Spanish Film Festival on 15 March 2019. Distributed by Warner Bros España, it also hit Spanish theatres on the same day. It premiered in Argentina on 14 November 2019.
Reception
Raquel Hernández Luján of HobbyConsolas gave the film 58 out of 100 films (overall assessment: "so-so"), considering that despite the good casting, the very good shooting and resourceful production, the film fails because of the writing. She highlighted the Spanglish-speaking police agents from Gibraltar to be the best thing about the film. She however deemed García-Jonsson's and Rovira's unfunny characters to be a drag, whereas supporting actors José Manuel Poga and Mona Martínez featured too little screentime.
Reviewing for Cinemanía, Rubén Romero Santos scored 2 out of 5 stars, considering that despite a promising initial approach (successfully portraying the losers who cannot see the end of the economic crisis) the film is derailed by the inclusion of a romantic comedy, an episodic story and even an adventure-mystery story as subplots.
Juan Pando of Fotogramas rated the film with 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting Furriel's "touching" caricature of a deceitful Porteño as the best thing about the film.
