You are on my page. Let me introduce to you:
Born in 1968 in Germany I worked the first 8 years in hotels. In 1995 I changed my profession and studied as a Social worker. I like to help other people. But my private passion for ITALY put me in the difficult decision:
Go and live where you like to live, or… stay where you are because of your job. For me it was clear that it was not possible to find a financial security as a social worker in Italy. I really wanted to live near the italian sea, with much better weather than in Germany.
So I looked around for the best idea to realize my dreams and I found Forever Living Products.
I subscribed as a distributor in May 2002, creating my Forever Business for 8 months in my free time while working at the Caritas in Aachen Germany.
Since 2003 I work now full time with Forever. If you like to better or to change your job and economic situation: I will be happy to help you.
And I also made a course to be naturopath: so if you have questions of the Forever products: just ask me. 🙂

Huawei Nova 4 goes official with punch hole display, 48MP camera
- The Huawei Nova 4, which was fully leaked a few days back, has finally gone official in China. The device will retail in China starting at 3,100 yuan (Rs 32,200).
- As expected, the Huawei Nova 4 is the world's second phone with a punch hole display for its front camera after the Samsung Galaxy A8s. The screen is a 6.4-inch bezel-less unit with FHD+ resolution, while the selfie camera is a 25MP sensor.
- It is officially the world's first phone with a 48MP primary camera. This Sony-sourced sensor has a f/1.8 aperture and is accompanied by a 16MP wide-angle (f/2.2) and a 2MP depth sensor. There's also a lower variant which swaps the 48MP camera with a 20MP one.
- Other specs of the Nova 4 include last year's flagship Kirin 970 SoC, 8GB RAM, 128GB of internal storage, a 3,750 mAh battery with 18W fast charging, and EMUI 9.0.1 based on Android 9 Pie on the software front.
- While the Huawei Nova 4 will go on sale in China soon, it is also expected to arrive in India and Europe early next year.

Apple spent $US2.8 billion (£2.2 billion) on research and development in its most recent quarter, and $US10.39 billion (£8.36 billion) through 2016, according to its fourth quarter earnings report.
Analysis of Apple's quarterly earnings over time show that annual spend is its highest ever.
According to chief financial officer Luca Maestri, research and development spend is Apple's biggest differentiator from the competition, and stems from the company's expansion into new areas.
Speaking at the Goldman Sachs investor conference on Tuesday, Maestri said Apple was "working on things that do not generate revenue today" but might be good future bets. Apple made the interview available through its investor relations site.
Maestri didn't go into specifics, but rumoured projects on the books include the Apple Car and augmented reality glasses.
Apple's suite of products is much larger than it used to be, Maestri added. "We make three iPhones, we only used to develop one. We develop multiple iPods, the Apple Watch, Airpods, Beats headphones. The product portfolio is larger, so we need more R&D [budget] to develop these."
The company is spending more on its growing services business, which includes the App Store and iTunes. "Services has grown a lot," Maestri said during the interview. "We need engineering investments in services like iCloud, Siri, Maps. R&D on services is significantly higher than we used to have." Services jumped by almost $US1 billion (£804 million) in revenue this last quarter, to $US7.17 billion (£5.8 billion).
Finally, there's Apple's increased focus on bringing core technologies in-house. Maestri said:
"[R&D spend] allows us to keep our differentiation from the rest of the industry. Today, we do much more in-house development of some fundamental technologies than we did a few years ago…think about the work we do around processors, sensors, there's much more work in-house than we used to do. It means we can push the envelope on innovation, we have better control over timing, cost, quality. We look at that as a great strategic investment for us."
Apple opened an R&D centre in Israel focused on chip development in 2015, and new centres are set to open in Yokohoma in Japan, Jakarta in Indonesia, and an unspecified location in China.

Insight Property Group to Start Work This Fall on $185M Urban Mixed-use Project
- By
- Apr 17, 2014
By Adrian Maties, Associate Editor
Insight Property Group announced the acquisition of the H Street Self-Storage Property at 624 H St., N.E. The Arlington, Va.-based multifamily developer plans to turn the site into the home of its new urban, mixed-use luxury project The Apollo on H Street. Groundbreaking is scheduled for this fall.
In 2011, Insight paid $10 million for the Murry's Grocery Store site at 616 H St., N.E. The H Street Self-Storage Property is adjacent to it. Together, the properties total 2.32 acres of land and provide 460 feet of H Street frontage between Sixth and Seventh streets.
"The acquisition by Insight of the self-storage property represents the final piece of property needed to move this extraordinary development forward," Insight President Michael Blum said in a statement for the press. He added that the development will serve to connect the entire H Street NE corridor from Union Station to the west to the Atlas District to the east. "We're proud to be associated with this project. We expect it will become an exciting urban destination," Insight Principal Richard Hausler also commented.
Last year, in July, Insight obtained PUD approval for the mixed-use project. At a cost of $185 million, it will include 430 luxury residential units and 75,000 square feet of retail space, and feature a green roof and other state-of-the-art amenities. A Whole Foods Market will anchor the retail portion of the project. Insight hopes to open The Apollo on H Street in early 2017.
Insight is currently working on several multifamily and mixed-use developments in the D.C. metro area, like the 310-unit Fenwick Station or the 240-unit Huntington Metro. Some of the Arlington developer's project are scheduled to open this year. In 2013, Insight completed and, shortly after, sold the Grayson Flats, an apartment complex with 67 residential units, for $33 million to an affiliate of Silverwood Cos.

Always buy fresh millet for your birds. Frequently prepackaged millets (like those found in grocery stores) are dry and end up uneaten on the floor of your bird's cage.
Millet provides valuable nutrients and keeps your bird occupied and entertained. Remember though that millet is a treat and (combined with all other treats) should make up only about 10% of your bird's diet.

Government & Industry Come Together to Unveil White Paper on Benefits of IoT in Disaster Management
The Digital India Action Group (DIAG), a think tank established for ideating and monitoring policy initiatives to support the Indian Government's mission of Digital India, set up by Manufacturers' Association of Information Technology (MAIT) announced the unveiling of a white paper on "IoT for Effective Disaster Management". The white paper aims to create awareness and appreciation about the potential use and application of IoT for different aspects of disaster management.
Launching the white paper, Shri Kiren Rijiju, Hon'ble Minister of State for Home Affairs, Govt. of India said, "Information technology has played a key role in changing the face of our country and noteworthy initiatives like Digital India are encouraging us to push the boundaries of innovation. I am happy that industry bodies such as MAIT have taken the lead in helping the government devise proactive policies and plans, and suggest ways to most effectively deploy Information and Communication Technologies to mitigate the effects of disasters."
The white paper recommends a 'Seven-Point Action Plan' to shift from a 'relief and recovery' model to 'risk and vulnerability assessment' and address key issues and challenges related to management of natural and man-made disasters in India. In this hyper-connected era, Internet of Things (IoT) plays an important role by interconnecting intelligent devices for the purpose of sharing information. It also provides early warnings through sensor based technologies, thereby creating innovative and effective systems for disaster management.
The white paper also highlights the importance of real-time information management for effective preparation, planning, response and mitigation of disasters. It places emphasis on the IoT as a technology domain, which can pave the way for a radical and pioneering approach to minimize losses caused due to disasters. Leading technology giant SAP India collaborated with MAIT along with other players from the DIAG in order to create the white paper.
According to Ms. Debjani Ghosh, MAIT President, "There is a realization that as a country we need to build a culture of disaster preparedness at all levels. The white paper sheds light on the need to build capacity at the central, state and district levels, empower and train volunteers while ensuring focus on vulnerable groups. It also reveals that learning from past disasters and knowledge sharing is an important goal that can be fulfilled by effective deployment of ICT solutions."
Mr. Deb Deep Sengupta, President and Managing Director, SAP Indian Subcontinent said, "The opportunities for application of technologies in disaster management are significant. One such revolution is IoT, which will help to not only respond but also predict and help react on a real-time basis. These predictions and correlations will be transformational. We are happy to have contributed to this initiative which is the first step towards managing future calamities and making lives better."
The white paper was unveiled by Hon'ble Minister of State for Home Affairs, Govt. of India, Shri Kiren Rijiju; Ms. Debjani Ghosh, President, MAIT and Mr. Deb Deep Sengupta, President & MD, SAP Indian Subcontinent. Also present on the occasion were senior Government of India officers Dr. V K Saraswat, Member, NITI Aayog; Mr. R K Jain, Member Secretary, NDMA and leadership team members from Accenture.
Highlights of the IoT White Paper
- 57% land area of India is vulnerable to earthquakes. Of these, 12% is vulnerable to severe earthquakes.
- 68% land is vulnerable to drought.
- 12% land is vulnerable to floods.
- 8% land is vulnerable to cyclones.
- Many cities in India are also vulnerable to chemical, industrial and other man-made disasters.
- Agencies gain a clear picture of operations with real-time visibility of data.
- Agencies can model data from multiple sources, transform it into accessible, actionable intelligence for faster, better-informed decisions.
- Create a single, federated information hub.
- Build and information back-bone which all parties – government agencies, NGOs, infrastructure operators and community – can contribute to and work from.
- Increase collaboration and interoperability.
- Gain by accessing cutting-edge technology – Big Data, Cloud Computing, mobile technologies and intuitive analytics to streamline and optimize all emergency management processes.
- Technology and Infrastructure related issues: Ensuring last-mile connectivity, improvement in bandwidth to ensure feasibility of IoT deployments, enhancing IT-Electronics device manufacturing base in India, effective network planning for deployment of large numbers of M2M devices while ensuring low energy consumption, addressing privacy and security concerns at the Telecom Operator/Service Provider level as well as sensor/device level.
- Organizational and Institutional issues: Limited capacity of deploying ICTs in general and IoT in particular within disaster management organizations, framework for industry participation in all IoT initiatives, knowledge sharing amongst states and union territories, lack of adequate information at the state/district levels.
- Policy and Regulatory issues: Need to evolve and notify an IoT policy and roadmap for India, especially with regard to cloud offerings.
Recommendations: "The MAIT DIAG Seven-Point Action Plan"
- Release of cloud security and related guidelines as part of the 'Digital India' policy framework.
- Inclusion of ICT in Disaster Management in the National Skills Development Framework and Plan.
- Release of IoT Policy for India.
- Development of framework for continuous industry participation in planning for disaster management.

If Looks Could Kill | Constantine "A Whole World Out There" Review
Constantine's eleventh episode, "A Whole World Out There," is essentially about kids being kids. A group of college students perform what looks like a séance at the beginning of the episode. They all have an out of body experience and end up in some house, all in different rooms. One of the girls sees a man who says that he can see them and she has to hide him. The other girl sees a man who looks like he is going to attack her. Then the kids are back in their bodies inside the crypt at the cemetery.
First off, does this sound like a good idea? Naturally, these kids have gotten themselves into a bigger mess than they know! The next day, during class, Constantine shows up to check out the situation. It turns out that their professor, Ritchie, is an old "friend" of Johns. I use the word friend lightly since Ritchie seems to be a mess after the events at Newcastle. I hope we get to hear exactly what happened at Newcastle that ruined so many lives. Ritchie tries to keep to himself and not get involved in the rising darkness that is always threatening the world. But unfortunately, Ritchie notices that one of his students took a journal of Jacob Shaw.
Shaw believed in a ancient ritual that sends your consciousness to a separate world, thus the out of body experience. Before Shaw's impending death, he sent his consciousness to this other world using his ritual. It's this world where the kids sent themselves by performing the ritual in his journal. Later, one of the students, Carter, sees Shaw's reflection in the glass of a door he passes on campus. In the next instant, he is back in the house with Shaw after him. Before he can even get his bearings, Shaw suffocates Carter by placing a plastic bag over his head. Back in our world, Carter dies for real from the exact same injuries sustained in the house with Shaw.
Two of the girls who were present for the ritual, Miranda and Lily, discuss what's happening at Carter's candlelight vigil on campus. Miranda doesn't believe that anything supernatural is occurring. She shrugs it off as being a hallucination and goes to the gym to get her head on straight. While she's dancing, she doesn't seem to want to turn any lights on; this can't be a good sign. The room is wall-to-wall mirrors, and Miranda starts seeing Shaw reflected in them. She is immediately transported out of her body and back to the house.
At this point, Adam, Ritchie's teaching assistant and leader of the ritual, and Lily have figured out that something has happened to Miranda. Since Adam believes that she went back to the house accidentally, he leaves his body on purpose to try and save her. Both Adam and Miranda are brutally murdered by Shaw. Lily is now the only one left, and it is up to John and Ritchie to save her.
When Ritchie and John get to the house, they run into Shaw. Constantine helps Ritchie to realize that he can turn Shaw's world into his own. In an underwhelming scene, Ritchie seems to have no problem defeating Shaw. All of a sudden it's over. Lily goes back to her body, but John and Ritchie take a bit longer to go back to their world. Ritchie even considers staying in his new world, before eventually coming back to reality.
This episode found Constantine solving a case by himself, with some help from an old friend. Early on, he said that Zed is on bed rest and Chas is with his family. I can't help but wonder if Zed's powers could have helped those kids at all. I don't know the extent of her powers, but maybe she could have seen what the kids were seeing in the house without leaving her body. In any case, an episode without Zed just can't be as good in my opinion. She's become a really great part of the team and always has something to add to the show.

Long Story Short – Ben Cayetano – Part Two
In the second part of his conversation with Leslie Wilcox, Ben Cayetano explains how his desire to serve a greater public led to nearly thirty years in public office. With his trademark candor, he reveals how his priority, which put the people before personal gain, was often at odds with how the game of politics is played. He speaks frankly about his disdain for political quid pro quo, and how and why he believes it plays an even larger part of the landscape today.
Long Story Short with Leslie Wilcox is a production of PBS Hawaii.

Madrid, Sept 14: A Moroccan tiol has been arrested for "intense activity in online distribution of jihadist ideology" related to the Islamic State (IS), the Spanish Interior Ministry said on Wednesday. The arrest of the Moroccan, whose me was not revealed, took place in the town of Manresa, north of Barcelo, Xinhua news agency reported.
According to the ministry, the detention means the end of a platform which was "strongly active in spreading the jihad message".
The ministry confirmed the man arrested used several online platforms to "develop a constant and growing work of spreading doctril images and also of a strategy of radicalisation common in terrorist groups".
The official communique of the ministry added that the man had displayed an "unstable and violent character" in recent months, "in line with an increase of his commitment to the jihad".
He had also maintained contacts over social networks with someone who had returned from the conflict in Syria and Iraq to "ask for advice and support for his activities". (IANS)

Entrepreneurial class should be recognised for what it has to offer
Hundreds of people turned up at Hyde Park Corner mall to hear former deputy finance minister Mcebisi Jonas launch his book After Dawn in August. The allusion to dawn was not missed, coming 18 months after President Cyril Ramaphosa's "new dawn" state of the nation speech, which did so much to raise the hopes of our nation.
Things are a lot darker now, and not just because the ratings agencies are scouring the horizon for signs of an economic upturn, finding little but thunder clouds. Their assessments are met with determined statements of intent that we must "do better", but with little of the political will required to underpin hopes with a realistic plan.
Recent opinion pieces in Business Day by Shawn Hagedorn and Peter Bruce share the common theme of whether, and how, the DA has anything serious to offer to get us out of this mess. The assumption is that with the ANC so bereft of ideas and will, it is up to the official opposition to save the day.
Any reading of the DA's 2019 manifesto dispels the notion that it lacks ideas and sensible economic policies. The Treasury's economic policy paper, which caused such a storm, incorporated many DA policies. But no-one seemed to notice.
What the DA's economic policy lacks are a few "killer apps" which, after capturing the imagination, might lead to a deeper analysis of its broader offering.
A reading of the introduction to Jonas's book reveals the seeds of all that is wrong with SA's economic policy landscape. He describes the "political economy" deal of the early 1990s, negotiated by four groups with widely differing interests.
These are established wealth, "accommodated through macroeconomic policy stabilisation, and the political management of expropriation-nationalisation risk"; the new elite, "accommodated through boardroom BEE, public sector jobs and access to state-business patronage networks"; organised labour, "accommodated through supportive labour legislation and collective bargaining"; and the poor and unemployed, "accommodated through fiscal redistribution through a rapidly expanded welfare net".
It is remarkable that Jonas does not mention, even with a hint of irony, the key missing interest group in this deal — the entrepreneurial class. This is made up of millions of business owners, sole traders and innovators, operating across the country, who are hidden in plain sight. They were ignored in the settlement Jonas describes and are ignored today.
The DA should capitalise on this oversight by owning the entrepreneurial class in its policies and messaging.
There is deep irony in that the architect of the 1995 Labour Relations Act and lead player in the consensus deal, Tito Mboweni, is now advocating dismantling many of the provisions of that act, and making other necessary reforms as they apply to the entrepreneurial class.
That this class interest was ignored explains why we continue to have an overly concentrated economy, why red tape bedevils small business, why innovation and support for start-ups are not prioritised and why the informal economy has not been able to drag itself out of the kasi to compete on a bigger stage.
It explains why, according to the Small Business Institute, 1,000 large employers, including the government, employ 56% of the workforce and why, contrary to earlier estimates, there are only about 250,000 formal small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) employing 28% of the workforce. The informal economy is beyond statistical reach but it maintains millions of people in largely survivalist mode and has not made a significant dent on the level of underdevelopment in our townships and rural areas.
If SA were like other economies, whether developed like Germany with its "mittelstand" or developing like Rwanda, India and China, the SMEs segment would have soaked up millions of our unemployed, paid billions in taxes and contributed to a swing away from SA depending on raw material exports to exports of value-added products and services into global supply chains.
So, killer app number one for the DA is to home in on the entrepreneurial class and advocate policies that prioritise it. Newly elected DA parliamentary leader John Steenhuisen has begun to appreciate this in his focus on the enterprise economy and opportunity for all.
This links into the second killer app, already alluded to — developing SA as an export-led economy, with SMEs leading the way. This is how the Asian Tigers and later China, Vietnam and others have dragged billions out of poverty.
As Hagedorn pointed out, South African consumers, burdened by debt and with declining net incomes, cannot fund a sustained growth rate sufficient to support a noticeable rate of poverty reduction. Only by focusing on exports to rich countries will this be achieved. Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for perhaps 1% of global disposable income, and Shoprite's downsizing in Angola, Zambia and elsewhere in this region shows it's not the export destination bonanza we had hoped for.
Small businesses, with their capacity for nimbleness and innovation, combining with big business that offers scale, capacity and networks, should be working together to create new products and services targeting markets in rich, developed countries. Wesgro, the Western Cape's economic development agency, shows how the government can come to the party by providing export promotion and investment incentives.
Ramaphosa's address to last week's SA investment conference suggests the ANC recognises the central role SMEs play in the economy. But his focus on public procurement rather than exports reinforces the ANC's fixation on redistributing the existing pie rather than growing the pie by innovation and opening up new markets.
Developing small businesses is probably the least politically contentious policy arena in the economy, while adequate growth is impossible without substantially increasing exports. These two killer economic policy apps, supporting entrepreneurs and surging value-added exports, can lift the DA's policy relevance and SA's growth trajectory.
• Chance is a former DA MP and shadow small business development minister.

While working, I played the CD, "Relax and de-stress", an arrangement by the Apollo Chamber Ensemble performing 'psychoacoustically' arranged music of Vivaldi, Mozart, Debussy and more. The psychoacoustics - the inquiry of what happens with different sounds and rhythms - in this album was designed to soothe the heart rate, brainwaves and breath. Apparently when we are tired or stressed, our ability to perceive complex auditory data is diminished - yet the times we are overwhelmed are when the vital harmonics of sound are of greatest value. So the music on this album is purposefully very slow and easy - sonic "manna" for a fatigued nervous system. Anyway, while gently massaging Em's head and face during Champissage - I heard a beautiful sweet voice accompanying the music. Seems that she had been a singer and in the space of our work together - she was moved to sing along with a Schubert piece. After our hour long session she reported feeling deeply relaxed and feeling wonderful. Turns out that while we were working - Obama passed by the Salon on his way to a UN meeting. About an hour later - he passed by again - and I got to see him. My colleague Lee said, "he's not in a good mood today because yesterday when he passed by - he waved at us". Oh well, I did not mind because I was in a very good mood after working with Em and sharing a psychoacoustic song.

Reflexology and Parkinson's
Today at my Reflexology NY practice, I saw a lovely woman (named Em) who has had Parkinson's Disease for about 16 years. She was managing it very well until this last year when it started to take a toll on her fine motor skills and balance capabilities. Since Parkinson's has been known to respond to Reflexology and Champissage complements to allopathic medicine, I proposed that we do both in one session starting with a full Champissage massage and moving into about 10 minutes of Reflexology on each foot.

How did a year and a half pass so quickly????
The last time I posted was in March 2009. How many dozens of feet I have worked on since that time. Every week brings a kaleidescope of clients from dear friends to UN colleagues to dancers and artists to senior citizens and children. Each person who puts their feet into my hands - inspires me, teaches me and challenges me. Just yesterday NH came for Champissage. N, a well-known and very accomplished artist suggested we do a "swap", that is, a piece of her art work for several Reflexology or Champissage sessions. I was delighted but not sure how Reflexology could possibly compensate for her amazing artwork - which she sells anywhere from a few hundred to several thousand dollars a piece. Well, I proceeded to spend several hours at her studio (it would take days really) and found something so perfect - just touched my heart and soul - a really beautiful piece of artwork. Money was not the issue here. We traded gifts of the heart. P.S. This is not to say I dont work for money - I do. And everyone finds my prices very fair. But every once in a while - the opportunity for a "swap" comes along and in this case - it was superb!!

tv ABC World News With Diane Sawyer ABC November 7, 2012 6:30pm-7:00pm EST
6:30 pm
this is a special "world news" with diane sawyer on the first night after an historic vote. victory lap. it was a modern american election. that gave president obama four more years. >> i believe we can seize this future together. >> how did a new patchwork of americans come together to give him the win? and force a tough gut-check moment for the republican party? >> paul and i have left everything on the field. we have given our all to this campaign. >> can they recover? and change with the changing america? what is the world saying tonight? how about wall street? and what did the president do today to help the country heal? now, two american families turn
6:31 pm
the page. the romneys, polling together. the obamas, starting a new chapter in this white house. and the abc news powerhouse team is everywhere, on this historic day for america. live, from abc's election headquarters, this is a special "world news" with diane sawyer. >> good evening, and it was a day of celebration for president obama and a day of soul searching for the republican party. and, a reality check for a nation, seeking to move forward as a hard-fought election. tonight, your voice has become your vote, and these are the results at this hour. electoral votes, president obama with a decisive victory. and the president also winning the popular vote. and there are two pictures this morning after that say so much about two families, after the long campaign. governor romney, gathered with his family in a hotel room, and
6:32 pm
president obama and his family, on their way back to the white house. and, abc's white house correspondent jake tapper, with us again tonight. jake? >> reporter: good evening, diane. after logging more than 170,000 miles on air force one and a grueling and intense campaign, president obama finally got an opportunity today to take a breath and enjoy his hard-fought campaign. late this afternoon, the first family boarded air force one to return to the white house, which, for four more years, they can call home. in his victory speech in the wee small hours of this morning, the president said he was invigorated. >> i return to the white house more determined and more inspired than ever about the work there is to do. >> reporter: before he left chicago, the president stopped by campaign headquarters to thank campaign manager jim messina and other staffers with hugs. e might want to stock up on those hugs. the american people have voted for the same divided government and potential grid lock we've had for two years.
6:33 pm
today, republicans and conservatives were overwrought, wringing their hands, trying to figure out what went on. >> i went to bed thinking, we're outnumbered, thinking we've lost the country. >> i think republicans have done a pathetic job of reaching out to people of color. >> if mitt romney cannot win in this economy, then the tipping point has been reached. >> reporter: on the president's to do list, economic growth and jobs. immigration reform, and the top priority, those tax cuts set to expire come midnight new year's eve. but whatever difficulties may lie ahead, the president seized his moment early this morning, staking his claim in history with a nod of the lofty rhetoric of his convention speech eight years ago and his hopes for what might be. >> i believe we can seize this future together, because we are not as divided as our politics suggest. and we remain more than a collection of red states and
6:34 pm
blue states. we are and forever will be the united state of america. >> reporter: and in that vein, diane, president obama reached out to the house and senate republican leadership, they pledged to work together to solve this nation's problems, of course, the challenge is turning that rhetoric into reality. diane? >> and we have more on that in a moment. thank you so much, jake. but what about governor romney, after so many years, such a long campaign? what is he thinking tonight? abc's david muir covered that campaign and is in boston right now. david? >> reporter: hey there, diane. you showed that image of the governor today. we know he spent more time with his family. they've gathered here, five sons, 16 of the 18 grandchildren. and this family has been a huge part of the campaign. one of the sons, a key adviser, the others campaigning for him, and, of course, ann romney, who has said this would be the last campaign. mitt romney and his
6:35 pm
campaign convinced they had a shot until the very end. >> like so many of you, paul and i have left everything on the field. we have given our all to this campaign. >> reporter: last night, a portrait of his dedicated family, one last time before exiting the state. romney had been running for president for six years, two campaigns -- >> i'm running for president of the yifr. >> reporter: hoping to fulfill and unfinished dream of his father. ♪ he's going to win >> reporter: george romney, the one-time governor of michigan, running for president himself. a devout mormon, romney's discipline brought outsized success at work and a cherished family at home. >> now are you doing? >> reporter: from the very start, his campaign arguing romney was the turn around guy who could turn around the economy. but there would be missteps. playing right into the caricature crafted by his opponents. >> corporations are people. >> reporter: taking hard lines in the primary that would hurt him later. calling for self-deportation for undocumented immigrants. they would go home, get in the back of the line? >> that's correct.
6:36 pm
>> reporter: his comments about the 47%. but there were turning points. his wife's appeal. >> i love you women! >> reporter: and romney's biggest moment, the first debate. >> you've been president four years. you've been president four years. you'd said you'd cut the deficit in half. >> reporter: and there was self-dself self-devry case, too. >> it's nice to finally wear what ann and i wear around the house. >> reporter: in the final days, a candid answer from ann, should the race not go their way. >> he will not run again. nor will i. >> reporter: living with ms, ann enduring the rigors of two presidential campaigns. last night, her husband promising a prayer for the president. >> ann and i join with us to earnestly pray for him and for this great nation. thank you and god bless america. >> reporter: and so the big question tonight, what's next for the governor? he said in the last 24 hours he hasn't much thought about that, saying he has a life and a family to get back to. diane, we learned a little bit more about the campaign plane, the one we've been flying around
6:37 pm
in. it's headed back to michigan where they are going to clean the plane, their word, decontamination, saying the campaign planes are notoriously filthy, filled with germs because of the reporters with beaten down immune systems. i don't know how to take that. >> we won't take it personally. thank you so much, david. and now time to bring in co-an or the of "good morning america," anchor of "this week," george stephanopoulos, once again. so, what did we learn last night from the voters about the economy? >> reporter: we saw the building blocks of president obama's victo victory. he blunted the bad economy by fighting governor romney to a draw. you see in the exit polls, one point. and then beating him on this issue of empathy. there was an empathy gap, by ten points, the voters thought the president was more in touch of their problems. he was brilliant in his targeting of the voters he needed to get out. >> so, give me your bottom line on the republicans now. we talked about the soul-searching. what do they do next? >> reporter: perhaps civil war. you have to look at this party
6:38 pm
right now. they have won the popular vote only once since 1988 in the presidential race. and it was probably best summed by the head of the american conservative union. he said the party is too old, too white and too male. they lost single women by 40 points, hispanics by almost 40 points, blacks by more than 80 points. this is a party that has to create a much bigger test. >> saying it's a wakeup call. thank you so much, george. zblifl as we said, after the big speeches last night, there was a jolt of reality today. wall street plummeted, a one-day drop that was the worst in nearly a year. the dow down more than 300 points. was it the election? was it worry about grid lock in washington all over again? abc's bianna golodryga has some answers. wall street woke up this morning to the same president, but no worries. europe's debt crisis appears to be getting worse. there was rioting in greece today over new budget cuts and
6:39 pm
word that even europe's strongest economy, germany, is in trouble. but quickly investors turned back to our looming problem, the road we're on to the so-called fiscal cliff at the end of the year. $650 billion of combined spending cuts and tax cuts expiring automatically. wall street's selloff led to a loss of $300 billion in market value. late this evening, greece passed its budget costs and that may ease concerns tomorrow morning on wall street. but until we have certainly about the rest of europe and most importantly, our own fiscal cliff, diane, we should be prepared for more days like this ahead. >> okay, thank you, bianna. and on that topic, what happens next, as the country hurtles towards that fiscal cliff. 55 days from now. abc's jonathan karl coverer ers congress and says, if the election sent a message to washington, and what kind. >> reporter: from speaker of the house john boehner, to the newly re-elected president, an 0 live
6:40 pm
branch. >> mr. president, the republican majority here in the house stands ready to work with you. >> reporter: they better work together. if they don't strike a deal to cut the deficit in 55 day, by law, we face the so-called fiscal cliff, taxmaggedon, a mix of tax increases and defense spending cuts that would likely plunge the economy back into recession. and give a big tax hike for virtual little every family in america starting january 1st. the president has insisted and campaigned on raising tax rates on the wealthy. house republicans campaigned on no tax increases and they won, too. today, from boehner, a hint at a willingness to compromise. >> we want you to succeed. let's challenge ourselves to find the common ground that haas eluded us. let's rise above the dysfunction and do the right thing together for our country. >> reporter: the newly elected congress looks almost exactly like the last one. the same partisan divisions,
6:41 pm

(Pocket-lint) - For the first time in 7 years Honda has updated its Civic Type-R. But this isn't just an update, this is a reinvention to deliver more power and handling than any Civic Type-R before it.
There are a lot of accolades for the 2015 Honda Civic Type-R. According to Honda, this is the fastest hot hatch around the Nürburgring with a time of 7 minutes and 50.63 seconds; this is the first time Honda has added a turbo to its VTEC Civic Type-R engine, which has resulted in more power than ever; the list goes on.
Essentially, this car is the result of Honda aiming to create the fastest hot hatch that can still offer road-going economy and comforts. But has it achieved that potent mix?
We took the Honda Civic Type-R GT onto the roads and track to test its limits.
Power, power and more power
Traditionally the Honda Civic Type-R cars are all about the VTEC engine, which offers plenty of power in the high rev range. As such it's been very popular with drivers who like to push a car to its limits. Now Honda has added a turbo.
For the die-hard VTEC fans this might be odd, as the point of VTEC is no need for a turbo. But by combining the two Honda has been able to utilise the lower end power of the VTEC while adding the turbo to continue delivering more power on top of the high revving VTEC. With a compression ratio of 9.8 per cent this is the highest for a Type-R yet. The redline is way up at 7,000rpm which means this motor drives more like a superbike than a normal car. That's a lot of fun and it sounds stunning.
Despite the 310PS of power from the 4-cylinder engine, the acceleration at the lower rev range can leave you waiting around a bit. Once it hits the 2,500rpm sweet spot you're thrown back in your bucket seat. Even in fifth gear, the high revs delivers plenty of power for easy overtaking on motorways.
The VW Gold GTI, by comparison, has a lower max torque rev range at 1,500rpm so it pulls off with an earlier kick. But since the Type-R is all about revs, it performs like an animal at the higher end.
A sound from the track
The four exhausts from the 2.0-litre VTEC turbo engine really sing. The low end offers an aggressive burble, pregnant with potential. Once the revs start to scream out, the power of the car surrounds the cockpit to adds to the adrenaline of acceleration. Inside and out it sounds brilliant.
But this is where that attempt at a blend between a road car and track car begins to cause problems. The car is really loud. This is not the car for a commuter or anyone wishing to do any long distances, unless you never get sick of that noise.
Unlike previous Type-R engines the turbo in this new model offers a beautiful hiss as it drops off, punctuating the revs perfectly.
Track handling
The handling on the new Type-R is utterly awesome. Despite relatively slender wheels the grip just keeps on giving, leaving you feeling confident going into and through corners.
Rather than show the video of us driving the car, here's one of a pro pushing the car (and us) to the limits on the track. Note the G-force monitor next to the speed readout, lots of fun.
Of course the car does a lot of work for you.
There is normal mode and then there is +R mode. This sports setting immediately changes all the dials in the car to red so you know you're in fighting mode. The result is a change in engine mapping for more performance, tighter steering, vehicle stability assist to maximise grip, while adaptive damping is increased by 30 per cent. This is very much a track mode.
Throwing the Type-R into corners in +R mode leaves you even more confident as every judder of grip is fed back into the wheel, so you know exactly how far to push. In a front-wheel drive car this is reassuring feedback that lets you push yourself enough to keep up with what the car can offer.
As a front-wheel drive car the grip while cornering in the Civic Type-R is astounding. This is likely also due to the damping system, which works constantly at the millisecond level making it effectively real-time.
On the track we could feel the judders as the car reached it's potential in corners. They allowed for constant correction so you could hang on to the point of even kicking the back end out and still remaining well in control. Impressive stuff for a front-wheel drive car.
That's the key here. This isn't just about impressing your friends with acceleration. This is very much a driver's car allowing the owner, if they're good enough, to give a passenger a scare with crazy cornering speeds. Anyone can put the pedal to the metal, it takes a real driver to test limits in corners and this car offers the reassurance and feedback to do that.
Braking is powerful and keeps up with the extra power in this model. These are the largest brakes on a Type-R yet with 350mm Brembo beasts making light work of cutting stopping distances. We had a red seat belt mark by the end of our drive, always a good sign.
Infotainment and sound system
The Honda Civic Type-R comes with plenty of smart kit as standard including its Connect system and 320W six-speaker surround sound.
There's plenty of power in the audio system while remaining balanced nicely to stay clear, even with that roaring engine noise.
The basic operating system of the central unit is Android. This means you can access apps and widgets. These work nicely in conjunction with the steering controls. You're able to set two apps for quick assess from the wheel, ideal for jumping to digital radio, for example.
There is a screen above the wheel in the dash that uses coloured lights to show revs. When powering along this is a great way to see when you hit the red line without having to look down at the dials, especially on the track. Since the car is made for high revving this was a very clever touch that works, while looking badass.
There's a second screen above the wheel. This can be used for car metrics like G-force and accelerator power, speed limits, fuel economy and more. Our favourite is the ability to use this as a timer, recording your lap times as well as quarter mile times and even your 0-60mph attempts.
Cruise control is standard but if you shell out for the GT package which is an extra £2,300 you get more. The GT pack adds a Garmin navigation system with 4 years free maps, 8-speaker 320-watt stereo, dual zone climate control, rear parking assist with camera, electric folding mirrors, adaptive cruise control, automatic wipers and those red highlights on the body. There is also a safety package with that, including forward collision warning, lane departure warning, high-beam support system, blind spot information, cross traffic monitor, traffic sign recognition system.
Design detailing
The new design of the Civic Type-R doesn't appear that different at first glance, but when you look back at previous models you realise this is far better looking.
That large rear spoiler has now got side scoops, there's a flat underside and more edging spoilers to help traction. The result is better handling as well as enhanced, more aggressive looks with cleaner lines.
The rear door handles are beautifully built into the frame of the window so the car has the look of a two-door but with the functionality of a five-door. A very nice touch indeed.
Inside the car are deep bucket seats that offer a surprising amount of comfort considering they're deep enough to lock you in place even at serious G-force when cornering. There's also plenty of space in the boot, comparable to the competition in this market.
First impressions
The 2015 Honda Civic Type-R was created to offer a car for the road which doubles as a track car. This has been achieved. In fact the car errs on the side of track over road, with enough comfort for most but a bit of an effort for those looking for a comfy commute.
Handling on the new Type-R is, frankly, ridiculous. That, coupled with an intelligent cornering system, results in a car that can give even pros a rush but makes newbies feel like a star. It's this confident delivery that leaves you feeling you could push the car harder each lap, and the car had plenty left to offer beyond our driving abilities.
The new design aesthetics are gorgeous, and in our time with the car we really fell for it, finding new angles we hadn't noticed before.
The buckets seats and harder suspension might be a bit much for some, but for anyone who enjoys driving, this offers enough comfort for day-to-day use. The 37mpg mixed fuel economy might be a stretch, but this car isn't about fuel economy.
This is the world's quickest hot hatch. That's reflected in the near £30,000 price tag for the base model. But for that you get a track day car, a road car, and what feels like a smart car that keeps you safe. You could pick up a Ford Focus ST for less, but it won't deliver quite as much power.
If you're a VTEC engine fan, enjoy the race track and want a good looking and handling hot hatch, the Honda Civic Type-R is a very tempting offer indeed.

Altered Carbon is the played Blade Runner in its new trailer is explosive
In 2018, Netflix account well prove that he is still the boss of the small screen, and starts the year on the hats of wheel with Altered Carbon, a series with the big SF in it.
It is, therefore, the 2 next February that will Altered Carbon on Netflix, the adaptation of the novel by Richard Morgan published in 2002. A good big story cyberpunk as we like since it is squarely a question of the digitilisation of the human consciousness in the body of borrowing, which is still pretty darn useful when you do not want to die because now you can move from one shell to another at leisure. And that, in the idea, we like.
Alarm clock difficult for Joel Kinnaman
Except that, of course, the universe ofAltered Carbon, located 300 years in the future, is very far from that of the little house on The prairie and that it was entitled to the usual company's sprawling and a bit depressed with neon lights everywhere. And it is in this world Takeshi Kovacs (played by Joel Kinnaman) returns to him, after a long time spent in the fridge following a popular uprising which has gone wrong, in a new body, of course, with the mission to prevent the assassination of the powerful Laurens Bancroft. Suffice to say that it is going to have bread on the board.
The first items unveiled to the public auguraient of the best and the trailer that we discover today confirmed, Altered Carbon, it looks pretty darn good. Except that it's still a lot to Blade Runner in its universe, its art direction and even its staging. It is therefore hoped with all my heart that the series will be freed from his glorious model, and surprise us as much as it amazes us already visually.

Ladies in professions before the Second World War
July 5, 2017 | Beauty & Style | No Comments|
Before the Second World War couple of ladies took after professions. Most employments for ladies were "conventional" parts, for example, nursing, secretarial or minding occupations. Just when a huge number of men joined the military, ladies went up against a dynamic part in Second World War and went up against numerous paid occupations that already had been held by men –, for example, bank employee, shoe sales representative or flying machine workman.
Lady began working in manufacturing plants – this was known as the "Rosie the Riveter" phenomenon. Look down through these stunning vintage ladies photographs and possibly you'll discover yours. via boredpanda
