After a series of recent European tech conferences, Silicon Valley continues to dominate. Tech venture capital on this side of the Atlantic still remains relatively small, due to bureaucracy, language problems.
European startups still lag behind US counterparts
It was hard to ignore the dominance of Silicon Valley at this year's LeWeb tech conference last week in Paris - nearly all the speakers and featured guests were from California's famed tech hub.
While European innovation is picking up speed, it is starting from a long way behind the American startup scene - participants at the conference blamed over-cautious investors and misguided government spending.
European venture capitalists haven't been investing in tech startups as long as they have been in Silicon Valley
A vicious cycle in Europe
Adventurous investors tend to be entrepreneurs themselves, so, where Silicon Valley has created a virtuous cycle, Europe is faced with a chicken-and-egg situation: there's not enough money because there are not enough start-ups, and there are not enough start-ups because there's not enough money.
"I know quite a few companies that moved to the valley just because they found capital there," said Sarik Weber, a German entrepreneur who runs the start-up incubator programme Hanse Ventures in Hamburg. His company provides capital and advice to new businesses.
"The whole Silicon Valley ecosystem is based on 40 to 50 years of entrepreneurs building their companies doing exits very successfully and then reinvesting this money back into the ecosystem," he added.
"This is what really fosters the European startup scene. When we get great exits like Skype or others, these people reinvest their money into European start-ups and we have to create that."
While European governments spend more on research and development than their American and Japanese counterparts, experts say that tax incentives and subsidies are not doing anything to encourage private-sector investors.
"The state is doing its job, but do the individual investors have enough confidence to invest more in research and development?" said Pierre Monhen, who teaches innovation policy at the United Nations University in Maastricht, the Netherlands. "There is a more cautious attitude in Europe than in the US."
Some entrepeneurs claim that with the proper political direction, European startups could do much better
Poor European political decisions hinder innovation, entrepeneurs say
But several entrepreneurs at LeWeb maintained that it is a political problem, and less of a problem of entrepeneurship. European governments, and the European Union itself, may be spending money, but it is not very effective.
Johan Staeul von Holstein, who has most recently founded MyCube, a social networking startup based in Singapore, thinks innovation could be encouraged with judicious tax reforms.
"There's as much capital as you can possibly imagine around," he said.
"It's just that the wrong people are sitting on the capital. Politicians need to understand the value of entrepreneurship and innovation and growth, and by giving huge tax benefits to entrepreneurs making their own decisions and putting large amounts of money in the hands of entrepreneurs: that would change the whole system in 24 hours."
A more serious problem is cultural attitudes and bad ideas, according to Tariq Krim, one of Europe's most successful entrepreneurs. He set up Jolicloud, a company that makes a Linux-based operating system which can be installed on any computer.
He adds that spending on innovation is misguided, and tends to go to a few large companies rather than lots of small ones.
In 2008, France, for example, invested 99 million euros ($131 million) in a new search engine called Quearo, which was supposed to be a European answer to Google. Since then, essentially nothing has happened and the project appears to be dead.
"They should have rather give money to 20 start ups," Krim said. "It has to be a competitive state about ideas."
Many European startups, like Slense, limit themselves to only a few languages, like English - making the European market a lot smaller.
Heterogeneous language, culture slow European tech startups
But beyond poor investment, the single European market may have simplified the movement of labor and money, but it has not created a single customer base.
Freddy Mini, who runs Netvibes, a start-up that creates personalised dashboards on the Web, pointed out that American companies automatically have a leg up, as they have a much more culturally and linguistically homogenous employment and customer base than their European counterparts.
In other words, he noted, European companies have to hire specialists for each corner of the continent.
"The first advice is forget your culture - get to the culture of the country where you live and hire people from the ground," he said.

Research interest
Autophagy is a degradation process that has gained increased interest the past years and its role in health and disease has started to unravel. Autophagy is an important process for cellular maintanance and aids cells coping with a variety of stress conditions. The role of autophagy in cancer has proven complex. Autophagy aids cancer cells coping with stressful environment such as nutrient deprivation, however, evidence supports that autophagy can also be tumor preventive. Our aim is to shed light on the complex role of autophagy in cancer.

Finnish technology group Wärtsilä has successfully completed a further round of test procedures of its automated dock-to-dock solution. In an unprecedented operation, in the presence of the Norwegian Maritime Authority (NMA), the system was further tested on the ferry Folgefonn, this time for full dock-to-dock capability, with the autonomous operation being utilised uninterrupted for the entire route, visiting all three ports serviced by the ship. The 85-metre ferry was able to leave the dock, manoeuvre out of the harbour, sail to the next port of call, manoeuvre through the harbour entrance, and dock alongside the terminal – all without human intervention. It is believed to be the first ever attempt at fully automated dock-to-dock operation, in complete hands-off mode, for a vessel of this size.

Hanoi enforces registration of electric bikes
Hanoi Police would implement mandatory registration of electric scooters and bikes from December 6, said Nguyen Manh Hung, deputy head of the Hanoi Road and Railway Traffic Police Division.
Traffic police start to fine electric bikes or scooters withour registration from December 6. (Source: VNA)
Hanoi (VNA) - Hanoi Police would implement mandatory registration of electric scooters and bikes from December 6, said Nguyen Manh Hung, deputy head of the Hanoi Road and Railway Traffic Police Division.
Vehicle owners found violating the law after December 6 will be fined, according to Decree 171 issued by the government.
By the middle of 2016, Hanoi Traffic Police will deal with all unregistered vehicles that are still being used. Such vehicle owners will be fined amounts ranging from 80,000 VND (3.5 USD) to a maximum of 1 million VND (44.4 USD).
In addition, when electric motor vehicle owners violate traffic laws, they will be subject to other forms of punishment such as confiscation of vehicle registration papers and number plates that are not properly specified, suspension of driving licences and even confiscation of vehicles.
Hung said in December, the traffic police in coordination with the Department of Transport in Hanoi organised awareness programmes for drivers, and planned to launch campaigns to ensure traffic order and safety at the end of the year, and especially during the Tet holiday and Spring festivals in 2016.
In November, more than 120 accidents occurred in the city, causing 49 deaths and leaving more than 120 injured. Compared with October, the number of traffic accidents fell. But compared with 2014, the number of accident black-spots has not fallen, and there are still 44 spots facing congestion risk in urban areas.
The Traffic Police Department continues to coordinate with mobile police forces to handle traffic at key intersections to prevent traffic jams, especially at the end of the year.-VNA

Why is commissioning support the burning issue?
Frustration over lack of choice and clarity over commissioning support is growing. Alisdair Stirling and Emma Wilkinson look at the issues.
Choice of commissioning support – promised to GPs as long ago as last summer – has become a key point of tension between emerging clinical commissioning groups and the Government. Many GP commissioners want choice because they believe competition will benefit patients by driving costs down, leaving more money for patient care.
Yet draft guidance from the Department of Health put out for consultation last month suggests CCGs will be unable to secure alternative commissioning support until at least 2014. The draft guidance proposes to allow elements of commissioning support currently provided by the NHS to be 'hosted' by the NHS Commissioning Board from 2013, and makes clear that ministers are taking a long-term view and that effective choice may not even be available until 2016 – blaming the 'complexity' of establishing a market.
The Clinical Commissioning Coalition first raised the alarm about commissioning support over a month ago, when a survey revealed CCG chairs were being offered all or nothing by their PCT clusters and that the promised choice had failed to materialise. It called for CCGs to at least be able to switch PCTs to access commissioning support.
NAPC chair Dr Johnny Marshall told last month's NAPC annual conference: 'This cannot be left undeveloped until April 2013.'
Dr Marshall's interpretation of the draft guidance is that CCGs will not be able to begin securing commissioning support until April 2013 and that a six to 12-month procurement process means that 2014 'is the reality'.
There are a number of reasons why the much-envisaged scenario of provider choice – with hawkish private-sector companies circling for a piece of the action – has not yet materialised.
Firstly, CCGs have been bogged down in structural issues, not knowing what their management allowance will be and the recently announced threat that if they seek commissioning support outside the NHS, they'll be saddled with paying the redundancies of affected PCT staff.
Neither PCTs nor their overworked staff have had time to morph into the predicted fleet-footed competitive bodies undercutting PCT-based commissioning support units and creating a new market for their expertise. It has led to a frustrating situation for go-ahead CCGs. Dr David Rooke, chair of Somerset CCG, said they were looking for 'large-scale, value-for-money offers', but that there was currently no choice available: 'We've got fairly advanced plans, but don't yet know what's going to be available.'
Dr Rooke says he's had lots of unsolicited offers of free support from private companies, but that a 'menu' of organisations growing out of PCTs has yet to materialise.
But not all GPs want choice. Dr Sam Everington, chair of Tower Hamlets CCG, is happy with what's on offer in London and says he hasn't got time to shop around.
Tower Hamlets will share commissioning support provided by one of London's four putative commissioning support units with two – and possibly five – neighbouring CCGs.
'I'm a clinician and I need good managers around me,' he says. 'Our attitude is that we want our commissioning support unit to do everything for us. Expanding provision of commissioning support makes me worried. Where does the corporate memory go? The idea this is just like managing Tesco's is too simple. We're happy with what we know.'
Dr Richard Vautrey, GPC deputy chair, is particularly worried about opening commissioning support up to providers from outside the NHS – or even from outside the CCG: 'The real risk of a market for external commissioning support is that you'll end up with a small number of large companies dominating it, and it could quickly get into a position where these few companies are telling CCGs what to do.'
The hosting function of the board will be wound down by 2016, by which time the DH 'expects the commissioning support market to be sufficiently established'.
The DH draft guidance says: 'This ensures CCGs have ongoing access to the capacity and capability they need to carry out their functions during their transition towards authorisation.'
Yet it's these noises emanating from Richmond House that ambitious commissioners find particularly worrying. The Clinical Commissioning Coalition is clear that without choice from the start, one of the main benefits of the reforms could be strangled at birth. It plans to continue to press ministers until the tension is resolved.

TORONTO - Toronto Rock general manager Terry Sanderson will take an indefinite leave of absence from the National Lacrosse League team to focus on making a full recovery from a health issue.
Team owner and president Jamie Dawick made the announcement Thursday in a statement.
"On a recent family vacation, Terry became ill and will not be in a position from a health standpoint to continue his duties as general manager of the Toronto Rock for an undetermined amount of time," Dawick said. "While Terry works his way towards making a full recovery, I will be assuming his day-to-day responsibilities as GM.
"I will continue to work closely with head coach John Lovell and his coaching staff and continue to be diligent in putting together the most competitive team possible."
Sanderson, a 62-year-old resident of Orangeville, Ont., guided Toronto to Champion's Cup titles in 2005 and 2011. He has over 40 years experience as a player, coach and manager.
"The Sanderson family is very appreciative of the well-wishes they have received thus far and at this time we would like the Toronto Rock and NLL communities to continue to respect the privacy of the family," Dawick said. "The team will not be making any further comment on Terry's health.
"As the lacrosse family is a very close one, we hope everyone will keep Terry and the Sanderson family in their thoughts and prayers."
The Rock will kick off their 2015 season on Jan. 3 at Rochester.

Hilton's New Spa Membership
Please note that I receive compensation for many links on this blog. American Express and other banks are advertising partners of this site. Read my Advertiser Disclosure policy to learn more.
Spa treatments at hotels can be a relaxing treat, but they can be overpriced. Seldom do local residents go to hotels just to get a spa treatment as they can often find a better rate somewhere else.
Hilton is hoping to change that and offer more incentives to use hotel spas, with their new global spa treatment membership. Called "The Spa Club", it will offer local residents access to amenities at the Hilton nearest where they live. Hilton tried a pilot program with one property over the past three years, the Hilton Short Hills in New Jersey, and it apparently was popular enough that by the end of 2015 Hilton expects 30 spas around the world to participate in the new program.
Hilton's Spa Club will allow members to receive one 60 minute massage or facial every month for at least 30% off the regular price.
The Short Hills property has a pdf with just a little detail about their spa membership program, and one drawback I find is that the facial or massage can only be redeemed Monday through Thursday –
I think the concept of having a Spa membership for travelers is potentially very interesting, as more and more people see the benefits of having regular massage/facials.
Hopefully with Hilton expanding the program they'll offer the massages/facials during weekends too.
One part of the Spa Club that caught my eye is that members also get free hotel parking and access to the fitness center. At first my brain started calculating all the great ways you could use that membership to get free parking at an airport hotel while traveling, but it appears that those perks are only available on the date of the spa treatment. Fair enough.
Members will reportedly also get at least 5% off of any spa treatment when visiting other properties, and I look forward to providing readers with more pricing details when they become available. For now, we just know that Hilton's Spa Club will have two membership levels – 6 month and 12 month.
Does the idea of a Spa treatment membership interest you?

Childish Gambino's new single "This is America" has taken Genius by storm, becoming the fastest song to reach one million pageviews in the history of the site. The songpage traffic has been driven by the track's symbolism-heavy lyrics and accompanying music video, with visitors looking to decode the messages Gambino weaved into the song.
For fans who are still trying to grasp the message behind some of Gambino's lyrics, Genius picked out three of the best annotations that help explain the song and its themes:
Genius contributor CrispyBaHRbeque explains Gambino's reference to the deadly Charleston church shooting in 2015, committed by a white supremacist:
The crux of Gambino's "This is America" video lies on the juxtaposition between the typically jubilant events in the foreground and the tragic ones in the background. Contributor Emptysaturn and staffer Colby Handy decode how this interplay sets up the basis of the song:
Although Gambino directly name-checks Kodak Black on the song's second verse, he also embeds what seems to be a reference to a recent police shooting of Stephon Clark, an unarmed black man. Genius contributor AshBash90 breaks it down:

Fiat paper schemes always end with the currency devaluing to zero, worthless. Along the way, though, through the years, history teaches us that those in power, that is, those issuing the worthless colored paper, always resort to trickery, deceit, then war all in an effort to remain in power.
Recently, we have seen, as was done in Cyprus, and has been commented upon by many pundits, and can expect the banking institutions that are too big to fail to resort to outright theft of depositor funds to remain solvent. Remember, to a bank, a deposit is a liability, which must be repaid.
We have also seen countless schemes whereby the big institutions holding onto deposits, or investors' cash, have simply rehypothecated, or pledged the same funds time and time again as collateral for loans, which are then used to speculate in the markets or with exotic derivatives. Anyone need a refresher course need only google MF Global and Corzine for an in-depth lesson.
Of late, there has been open outcry, that it is impossible to earn large, crazy wealthy sums simply from creating a business and selling products. No, something more is required to get one's hands upon generational wealth. That "something more" requires one to embrace the paper fiat scheme, and immerse oneself.
This concept of wealth creation being possible only from immersion into the paper fiat scheme, whether through investment banking, stock trading, hedge funds, buying and selling paper assets, speculating on commodities, what not, has attracted the very best and brightest. There is no comparable upside income potential, aside from crony capitalism and generational wealth that can be earned from political favors. However, that career path and trajectory are beset by extreme odds against success.
As a result of this obvious path to extreme wealth creation, naturally, those seeking such fabulous riches are irresistibly drawn to the financial sector. In this sector, all that matters is "scoreboard." It is not how hard one tries, or that one put in a good effort, or that one acted with high moral character, or honor, or any of the imbedded, traditional values that made the USA great long ago. Instead, the extreme short term time frame, 3 months, and an objective financial bottom line are the measuring sticks of success or failure, where coming in soundly within the bell curve is tantamount to an admission of mediocrity and necessarily, failure, because there is no incentive for any market participant that rewards mediocrity. None. In the end, it is all about the bottom line.
In this paradigm, then, naturally, rewards are doled out to those that succeed, that is, who do better than their peers, some of the best and brightest that have ever lived. Who among such a rarified breed, is going to be content as a middle-of-the-packer, when to enter the industry one must abandon any pretense of morality? Easy! NO ONE!
Based on this reasoning, then, those who do not share the financial industry type value system, cannot fathom the most basic understanding of what is driving the system, nor what to look for in predicting outcomes.
Like Mr. TF, who correctly, and for years, has predicted short and long term physical metals prices, based on his understanding that the commodity spaces are manipulated, once one embraces that concept, radical as it seems, and as unbelievable as it is, then making sense on the charts is, as TF so aptly notes, not too complicated at all.
In that spirit, I offer up a thought experiment that lead me to a conclusion that I believe explains a plausible end-game, slow burn, that is not at all a collapse, but is instead an orchestrated, but not controlled, descent of fiat towards its ultimate value of zero. Of course, this entails substitute currencies, under central control, likely backed by something of value. What that is is uncertain for now, but will reveal itself as time passes.
For now, let us turn to the facts upon which I base this analysis and conclusion.
What started me down this path is the seeming impossibility that regular folks in the USA will tolerate any such bail-in nonsense. I was bolstered in this thinking the other day at a local gun show I attended. I went to get a feel for the mood, and see whether the market had corrected back to normal following the Sandy Hook story. I believe strongly that it was staged, designed to usher in massive gun control, but failed as the powers that be realized that the red states are just not going to part with their guns. The puppet masters misread their abilities, and their puppet politicians could not complete their masters' tasks. Gun control failed for now, but as normal, will creep up time after time, as marginally, regular people lose interest, and the slick politicians erode rights at the margin. As I type this, California is looking to enact laws that allow family members to rat out a loved one, and enable authorities to seize firearms. No due process, screw the Second Amendment. This marginal erosion of gun possession rights is coming to every single place, eventually. Count on it.
Anyhow, back to the story. So, I am at the gun show, and I see table after table of guns, ammo, as far as the eye can see. Production has never abated, and people are buying hand over fist. New market suppliers are springing up in the face of increased demand. Supply and demand forces are working as should be, unlike in the physical precious metal space . . . But, I digress.
As I took this scene in, I became instantly struck by the likelihood of anyone in that building accepting some government decree taking any portion of anyone's hard-earned money, stored at a local bank. Not a chance in hell that the regular folks just meekly take losses like that. No way.
The regular folks are SEETHING. Washington politicians do not see it, nor do they want to see it. When Obummer comes to Los Angeles, traffic is snarled all day. Folks are PISSED OFF. It reminds me of the simmering racial tensions following the Rodney King video beating. It was all there, right out in the open, but most people did not want to talk about it. In mixed company, no one dared mention it. I was lucky, I had friends from all walks of life. I heard a total disconnect between my reality, and the reality of those less fortunate. We all remember the riots in Los Angeles in 1992. Koreans, armed, on rooftops, gangs of black youths rampaging, National Guard, fires, riots, lockdowns. OJ Simpson ripped open the wounds for more pain. Nothing was solved. Look what happened to OJ after a two-bit burglary in Las Vegas? Think the public is dumb, or disengaged? Not a chance. They are just uninformed, because their sources of information have been feeding them a massive daily infusion of brainwashing. Call it MOPE, or spin, or misdirection, whatever, the fact is that the truth has been withheld from the masses, deliberately.
As the truth leaks out, gradually, as it always does, people are slowly, ever so slowly, becoming aware. The gun crowd gets it, for sure, hence the effort to secure firearms and ammunition. Those red state voters understand that their colorful scraps of banker paper do not by as many rounds of ammo as they used to. The solution for them is not to complain about auditing the FED, or of returning to sound money, away from fiat. No, not at all. Heck, most of them know Fiat as a break-down prone Italian sportscar. Audit the FED? FED who? What's an audit? Like the IRS, and produce receipts? What?
Anyhow, the simple fact is that people know to spend their banker paper on durable goods. They got taken to the cleaners on the housing bust, so many people are wary, and renting. People are not foolishly taking on debt to buy the latest consumer good, either. Most people who need a flat screen TV, have one. New car? Maybe, but more likely is they are making do with less, repairing their things that break rather then replacing them with new. So, the people are aware and reacting, just not in ways politicians want them to react.
Which leads to the next huge understanding I reached. It dawned on me that there really are very few retirement options most people have. The wealthy do not worry, as they are invested in paper assets. They, by and large, see nothing, because they have reached success, and will do and say what it takes to keep the status quo operating, as they have benefited from it. They do not want change. The poor have no delusions of "retirement." Every day is a challenge. They are already getting government benefits, and they too want the system to remain intact. These are the great masses that make up the Free Shit Army. These are the voters coddled and coveted by those in elected office. These lower information voters are not at all going to do or say anything that upsets their free government transfer payments. If anything, they will complain and demand more, under various MOPE scenarios based on division and class envy.
The middle classe, though, is wholly dependent upon their pensions, whether from their 401k's, or their union pensions, or their govt pensions, what have you. The days of buying and holding, saving, and living on interest, are long gone, and are never coming back anytime soon. We all know this, as do all the overlords and secret back room meeting bosses. They know full well that the system is collapsing, in real time, and are desperately trying to keep it together.
They have seen fiat paper schemes implode, and are anxiously attempting to find a solution to the existing mess. For this, there is no doubt.
Only recently, though, did I see something that caused me to understand just HOW those banksters are going to pull of the greatest scam ever.
Remember, they cannot simply bail-in the Americans, because there will be massive uprisings, and there will actually be consequences. There are just too many guns, and too many pissed off, seething angry people who will, at the first chance, become active, violent, and will enact real reforms, with death and suffering as a result for many of the wealthy. For this, I have no doubt at all. There are not enough police personnel to quell the uprisings, and further, many of the local police forces will be taking care of their own families. I know this personally, on a big scale, and I also know that the powers that be know this as well. There is no delusion amongst the central planners that massive civil unrest will spell doom for those in charge.
As a result of this, and based on what transpired and is transpiring in Argentina, over the default on bonds, and the financial engineering that underlies that whole mess, I believe with 100 confidence that the end game scenario is going to play out in this fashion, as follows:
(1) Pension funds will be financially engineered such that the workers that have contributed their wages to the pension fund, will be given massive haircuts, on order of at least 50% or greater, both in the holdings of the pension fund, as well as upon payout based on the diminished holdings;
(2) The funds stolen by the pension fund managers, will be used to capitalize the TBTF institutions, keeping the system afloat;
(3) Because the pension funds will be, essentially raided, the workers will demand safeguards in the future, which the politicians will be only too happy to grant, thus requiring pensions to no longer invest in "risky" things like the stock market, or CDO's or any of the wall street financial schemes, but instead to invest in "safe" long term government bonds;
(4) After most of the pensions are looted, and the balance of funds are now invested in government bonds, there will be a currency reset, and the value of the pension funds that were converted to govt bonds will be further eroded, and of course,
(5) None of the pension funds will have invested in hard physical precious metals, which will explode in value to the upside.
(6) Anyone riding the bull this long will have amassed generational wealth, provided their family and friends still even talk to them.
If anyone doubts the premise of the very first point above, that is, that pension funds will be stolen by way of sophisticated financial engineering, then to those people, I ask them to please read this excellent piece over at nakedcapitalism: https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2014/08/much-short-position-paul-singer-...
The bottom line from the nakedcapitalism piece is that the workers, who contributed to their pension fund, had their funds stolen from them through outright theft by a corrupt fund manager, who also invested the funds in a high yield scheme whereby the pension fund was left holding the bag on worthless CDO's.
See, the crooks at the top are not going to just plainly "take" the money. No. They will use arcane concepts, driven by classic human emotion, like fear and greed (hat tip, Argentus for his great post on this recently), and will engineer turnover of the fund investments such that the poor, dumb workers end up taking the losses. The gains of course, all went to the corrupt, TBTF banks, which silently "hypothecated" the funds in the normal course of business and "thems is the breaks!"
This scenario will take place over years, not days or months. The system will hold together until it doesn't. But so long as it does, it will be a slow, gradual descent, marked by the occasional failed bank, headline, and then back to bread and circuses.
Remember the Greek bailouts? What happened to that? See what I mean?
Please, whatever you choose, prepare accordingly.

A trip from Melbourne to Geelong – a perfect way to take a break from the city for a day.
Feeling the urge to explore more of Victoria besides Melbourne, I took a day trip via train to Geelong on one of my rare days off last week. It was well worth the trip. I found Geelong to be a gorgeous seaside town, perfect for an escape from the big city for a day.
One of my favorite parts of Geelong was walking the waterfront, where I spent a little over an hour strolling alongside the sea from Rippleside to Limeburners point. I stayed just long enough for a perfect view of the sunset.
The waterfront is lined with 104 of the most random bollards along the pathway, each one representing a different part of Geelong history. It was fun exploring and taking pictures of as many as I could find.
My day trip to Geelong was just what I needed. With life getting busier lately in Melbourne, it was the ideal place to wind down and gain some perspective.

If anyone thinks EDF will find the money to build a new nukiller reactor at Hinkley, then they should start to look at the companies financial situation.
In last decade the share price has fallen from around 85 Euro to that of between 9 & 10 Euro.
Meanwhile the guestimated costs of the plant continue to rise.
It is because of these costs that the nukiller industry is now starting to push for smaller and what they say are cheaper reactors.
In the meanwhile UK energy consumption has dropped, and 25% of it is produced by wind turbines and other renewables.

Mobile Access Kit
Atlas Devices technologies enable professionals in specialized, high-risk occupations to work higher, faster and safer. With over a decade of innovation in military systems helping warfighters reach previously unobtainable heights, Atlas is now focusing on the utility industry to help lineworkers complete jobs faster, meet OSHA compliance, and increase rescue capability while reducing significant cost and risk.
Atlas has recently developed a powerful multi-mission solution, the Mobile Access Kit, which can replicate the functions normally provided by a bucket truck or helicopter in a self-contained package that fits on an ATV. With the included high-powered line launcher, rope kit and personnel-rated APA-5-U Atlas Powered Ascender, crews can quickly access heights over 150 feet and directly haul loads up to 600 pounds.
Line crews can use the pneumatic REBS Launcher to deliver a projectile over a transmission tower with a high-tension line in tow. They can then pull up full-size ropes and rig them to the bottom of the tower, enabling a 100 percent attached first man up in minutes. The APA-5-U ascender attaches to the rope and clips to a harness or load. An operator uses the variable speed trigger to ascend to the top of the tower or live transmission line in seconds. The APA-5-U can perform pick-off rescues, and with a wireless remote, haul equipment and use pulleys to tension conductors.
With a growing number of utilities using parts of the Mobile Access Kit, Atlas Devices is excited to now offer a full system solution that can enable crews to complete jobs more efficiently than ever.

I remain grateful for parents who insisted that exercise and sports be a part of my life …which I & my husband do as parents of twin sons. In fact, my husband so hoped for children that he could share a love of sports with – the twins main nursery is totally sports motif. The plan is for their life, like ours, to be varied; I hope they ride, crew, play polo, swim, fly fish [like myself], jog, golf, play tennis and of course, appreciate American football & especially baseball.
The pathos of baseball is amazingly highlighted in the movie Money Ball (NYT Article, Vanity Fair article) and combines some of my other passions – economics, logic and math with the imperative of this all American past time. As we approach the all East Coast Super Bowl, I am reminded [even though as a Jewish protective Mother never allowing our boys to play] that my husband bonded with me on our first meeting with a chat about my beloved hometown Eagles – I guess one could say football has been very, very good to me considering we married 3 months later!

Salted maple chocolate tart
Serves 12-14 | prep 25 mins | total time
Salted maple chocolate tartSubscribe to Sainsbury's magazine
Serves 12-14 | prep 25 mins | total time
Salted maple is the next-level salted caramel. It's especially delicious in this rich, dark chocolate tart
Nutritional information (per serving)
For the chocolate pastry
- 25g cocoa powder, plus extra to dust
- 115g plain flour, plus extra to dust
- 2 tbsp icing sugar
- 75g cold butter, diced
For the caramel
- 200ml maple syrup
- 125g salted butter
- 100ml double cream
For the ganache
- 200ml double cream
- 200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), finely chopped
- a pinch of sea-salt flakes
Step by step
Get ahead
Make the day before, keeping the leftover caramel sauce at room temperature.
- For the pastry, put the cocoa, flour, a pinch of salt and the icing sugar into a food processor and whiz until uniform in colour. Add the diced butter and pulse until it looks like chocolate sand. Add 2-3 tablespoons of chilled water and pulse again until it forms a ball. Flatten, wrap and chill for 30 minutes to rest and firm up.
- For the caramel, put the maple syrup, butter and cream into a small pan on a medium heat. Bubble for 8-10 minutes until thickened and glossy. The caramel will change from looking foamy to large bubbles. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6.
- Roll out the pastry to 3-4mm thick on a cocoa-and-flour dusted work surface, and use to line a 23cm tart tin. Trim off the excess pastry, add a piece of scrunched-up baking paper and fill with baking beans. Bake for 12 minutes, then remove the paper and beans, and bake for another 5-8 minutes until it looks dry and completely cooked. Leave to cool completely.
- Stir the cooled caramel, reserve 1 tablespoon for the topping, then pour the rest into the pastry case and chill for 2 hours until firm. Once you're happy the caramel is set, heat the cream in a small pan on a low heat until hot, but not simmering. Tip the finely chopped chocolate into a heatproof bowl, and pour in the hot cream. Mix well until thick and smooth. Leave to cool to room temperature, then pour over the chilled caramel, smoothing over with a spatula if you need to, and chill again for at least 3 hours or until the tart is completely firm.
- To serve, drizzle with the leftover caramel sauce (warm it briefly in the microwave if it has set), and sprinkle the sea salt flakes on top. You only need a small slice of this tart, as it is really rich. Serve with crème fraîche and/or berries if you'd like to cut through the richness.

PORTSMOUTH -- There's that long-worn phrase: "The check is in the mail."
For thousands of weary and worried workers on the Seacoast and elsewhere who have lost their jobs due to the coronavirus pandemic, it's an important phrase now that state and federal governments are working to get relief checks in the mail.
For those who filed and are approved by the state Department of Employment Security, checks should be mailed within eight days after the date of filing.
"People should be getting checks by early next week," state Sen. Tom Sherman, D-Rye, said Thursday. "It's supposed to be eight days from the date of filing."
Normally with unemployment benefits there is a processing period of about a week, then another week before checks would go out, according to Sherman. But he said that process was shortened to address the immediate and expansive needs brought on by the pandemic.
DES Commissioner George Copadis said as of Wednesday night his agency had received 41,304 claims in a one-week period, far more than the 500 weekly average prior to the coronavirus outbreak.
At his press briefing Thursday afternoon, Gov. Chris Sununu said he expects that number to "double or triple or more."
The numbers tell a dramatic story at how quickly things changed in the Granite State.
On March 17, DES reported unemployment rate for February 2020 was 2.6%, unchanged from January. The number of unemployed residents had decreased by 10 over the month to 19,930.
Filing a claim became a challenge when, to reduce exposure to the virus, all unemployment offices in the state were closed to the public. Claims and questions are being directed to the website, nhes.nh.gov, and to its hotline at (603) 271-7700, both of which became overwhelmed. So much so that the department established a block of time according to the first letter of the last name that people could file a claim:
A-F: Monday, 12 a.m. to noon
G-M: Monday, noon to 12 a.m.
N-S: Tuesday, 12 a.m. to noon
T-Z: Tuesday, noon to 12 a.m.
A-F: Wednesday, 12 a.m. to noon
G-M: Wednesday, noon to 12 a.m.
N-S: Thursday, 12 a.m. to noon
T-Z: Thursday, noon to 12 a.m.
Sherman, who described the initial logjam as more of a "tsunami," said it has eased.
"They've ramped up," he said. "While the numbers are still enormous, the logjam has significantly cleared."
Sununu said during his briefing that he doesn't envision any major changes to the system now in place for filing unemployment benefits. He encouraged filers to call the hotline.
"There's a person at the other end of that line to help you," Sununu said. Sending a caller automatically to a voicemail "amplifies the problem," said the governor, adding, "We want folks to have that community connection, that one-on-one connection to answer their questions right now on unemployment insurance. It's a very broad; we want everyone to try to take advantage of it."
On the federal level, the U.S. Senate has passed – and the U.S. House is working through – a pandemic relief package that includes checks that would be paid to individuals depending on their income levels.
The Senate's $2 trillion package would, among other things:
Give $1,200 to single adults with an adjusted gross income of $75,000 or less.
Give $2,400 to couples filing jointly with no children earning $150,000 or less.
Individuals and couples with children would be eligible for an additional $500 per each child they have.
Payments are reduced incrementally for individuals earning more than $75,000 up to $99,000 at which point they become ineligible.
Payments are reduced incrementally for couples earning more than $150,000 up to $198,000 at which point they become ineligible.
Sununu noted the relief package might contain money for states such as New Hampshire to add to their unemployment funds.
"I have full faith there'll be more steps after that," he said, "whether it's for small businesses, whether it's for individuals, whether it's for states and municipalities in supporting their revenue losses in their COVID-19 losses. I think a lot of financial support is going to be coming out of Washington, D.C."
From the Capitol, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., said, "This bill provides real relief to New Hampshire's working families, particularly hourly and low-income workers, so that they can pay their bills and afford groceries and other necessities."
"This bipartisan legislation will help provide the support that Granite Staters need right now as they grapple with the fallout of this unprecedented epidemic," said U.S. Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H.
Assuming House concurrence on the bill and a quick signature from President Donald Trump, checks could be in the mail by mid- to late April. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said at a press briefing Wednesday that the administration expects to have the money to recipients within three weeks of the president's signature in cases where the IRS has direct deposit information for taxpayers, longer if the check is mailed.
