Undisguised terror Russias Kharkiv strike chills Ukraine

2022-03-01T16:28:00.001-08:00

An emergency official said the bodies of at least six people had been pulled from the ruins, and at least 20 other people were injured

Kharkiv: In the dust and debris ?and the dead ?in Kharkiv's central Freedom Square, Ukrainians on Tuesday saw what might become of other cities if Russia's invasion isn't countered in time.

Not long after sunrise, a Russian military strike hit the center of Ukraine's second-largest city, badly damaging the symbolic Soviet-era regional administration building.

Closed-circuit television footage showed a fireball engulfing the street in front of the building, with a few cars continuing to roll out of the billowing smoke.

?You cannot watch this without crying,? a witness said in a video of the aftermath, verified by The Associated Press.

An emergency official said the bodies of at least six people had been pulled from the ruins, and at least 20 other people were injured.

It wasn't immediately clear what type of weapon was used or how many people were killed, but Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said there were dozens of casualties.

Zelenskyy called the attack on the Freedom Square ?frank, undisguised terror. Nobody will forgive. Nobody will forget. This attack on Kharkiv is a war crime.?

It was the first time the Russian military had hit the center of the city of about 1.5 million people whose residential neighbourhoods have been under fire for days. The Ukrainian emergency service said it had put out 24 fires in and around Kharkiv caused by shelling, and it had disabled 69 explosive devices.

Also struck on Tuesday was a tent site on the central square that had been set up to collect aid for the volunteer Ukrainian fighters who have rushed to Kharkiv's defense.

In recent days, volunteer guards had occupied the regional administration building as part of those efforts.

It was feared that some of the volunteers were now among the dead.

Windows of the administration building were blown out. Ceilings had collapsed. Concrete dust added another layer of grim, gray desperation. A nearby car was crushed.

As emergency responders picked through the debris, there was fresh anger.

?This is for those who were waiting for a Russian peace, this is what you wanted, yes? Many injured,? one said.

The Russian military has denied targeting civilians, despite abundant evidence of shelling of residential buildings, schools and hospitals.

The military ?takes all measures to preserve the lives and safety of civilians,? Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Tuesday.

?I would like to stress that strikes are carried out only on military targets and uses exclusively precision weapons.?

Unconvinced, one Kharkiv hospital has moved its maternity ward to a bomb shelter, with pregnant women pacing in the gloom. The cries of dozens of newborns echoed off the thick concrete walls. Electrical cables dangled. Rolled-up mattresses were placed against windows.

As the shelling in Kharkiv intensified, one family spent a fifth day in another shelter beneath the city. Water bottles and backpacks were stocked in the basement. A military-style helmet hung on a shelf, and underneath it a boy looked at a phone. Boredom mixed with fear.

?It is a nightmare, and it seizes you from the inside very strongly. This cannot be explained with words,? mother Ekaterina Babenko said.

She could hardly believe the Russian attack was occurring in Kharkiv and tearing its neighbourhoods apart.

?My friend who lives in the suburb Gorizont, a few hours ago, the house next to hers was hit and several floors were destroyed,? Babenko said.

?And for some time, there was no connection with her. Those were scary minutes, very scary.?

For her family and others still sheltering in the city, the world above was changing too quickly to comprehend. Warehouses, homes, garages, cars, all burned.

?Sveta, let's go,? one man urged in a video showing the shelling of a residential area in Kharkiv on Monday.

?Go, I'll catch up with you,? the woman.

?Leave, for God's sake,? the man pleaded.

Other residents were already flowing west, hoping to leave Ukraine altogether.

Chip sanctions aim for Russias military and its tech industry hopes

2022-02-26T21:41:00.001-08:00

The US has for years used the power of the dollar to cut adversaries off from global finance. Now, it is using the prevalence of American technology to cut Russia off from global chip supplies.

Far-reaching export controls announced by Washington aim to isolate Russia from the world's tech economy and stymie its military capabilities, while allowing ordinary Russians still to buy mobile phones, dishwashers and laptops.

The measure is part of a wave of US and western sanctions in retaliation for Russia's invasion of Ukraine that have also targeted financial institutions, leading companies and the wealthy oligarchs that surround the administration of President Vladimir Putin.

The tech-related export controls are "novel and complex" in their structure, said Kevin Wolf, a former senior commerce department official, designed to have an impact on government and industrial groups rather than ordinary consumers.

"What the administration has done here is set out a structure to cut Russia off from chips and said that this is a policy and a mission," said Wolf. "And this isn't going to go away. There is massive allied co-operation on this."

The move shuts off supply from leading US groups such as Intel and Nvidia.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, the world's largest contract chipmaker, which controls more than half the global market for made-to-order chips, has also pledged full compliance with the new export controls.

The US honed its ability to cut companies off from semiconductors by using its export control powers on Chinese telecoms giant Huawei during the Trump administration.

After first restricting the sale the US technology to Huawei by putting it on its trade blacklist, it ratcheted up pressure by applying the so-called foreign direct product rule, allowing Washington to reach beyond borders and control products made outside America if they are designed or manufactured using US technology.

"Huawei was a trial run," said Christopher Timura, a trade lawyer at Washington's Gibson Dunn. "The US didn't see a dramatic impact on Huawei until it developed the entity list foreign direct product rule."

Using this same power against Russia broadly for some items, and more stringently against a specific list of 49 military entities, means Russia is now effectively denied access to high-end semiconductors and other tech imports critical to its military advancement.

"Russia is very well prepared but over time this is going to degrade their military capabilities severely," said Julia Friedlander, a former US Treasury official.

The blockade will also affect Russian tech more broadly, said Jim Lewis, of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. "This puts paid to Russia's tech ambitions. Russia was already falling behind in emerging tech, and this just pushes them further back."

Putin has tried to wean Russia off dependence on foreign technology when western government peppered the country with sanctions following its invasion of Crimea in 2014, but the measures had little success.

Yandex, Russia's leading US-listed tech giant, boasts one of the world's leading supercomputers that powers its automated online translation services but it relies on hardware made by US-based Advanced Micro Devices and Nvidia.

Dmitry Peskov, Putin's spokesman, said in January that "dishwashers and other such household items are not the most sacred things in our society, as important as they are for home comforts".

Russia has vowed to respond to the sanctions "based on its own interests" and warned that its countermeasures might be "asymmetric."

Despite these far-reaching restrictions from the US, analysts have predicted that some Chinese companies, especially those that have themselves been the target of US sanctions, might help Russia circumvent the export controls.

"Now that it's almost certain that Huawei's competitors like Ericsson would pull out of Russia and from co-operation in making 5G equipment, this will create space for Huawei," said Artyom Lukin, an associate professor at Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok.

"Huawei could monopolise the Russian telecom equipment market: as a result of western sanctions, China could gain 100 per cent control over our country's tech supplies," Lukin added.

US restrictions on technology exports to Russia might also lure Chinese semiconductor companies to jump into the gap. SMIC, China's largest chipmaker, is itself under US sanctions. The company was put on the entity list after the US government determined some of the chips it made ended up with users defined as military-linked.

SMIC has since lost access to the most equipment it needs to build production lines at the most advanced process technology level. It has, however, been able to continue buying machinery for expanding capacity using slightly older technology.

A senior Biden administration official rejected the idea that China would help Russia circumvent US sanctions.

"China alone can't supply all of Russia's critical needs for the military," the official said. "And it certainly can't compensate Russia for everything that we're essentially restricting through these rules, especially as it relates to the production of semiconductors. China accounts for only 16 per cent of global capacity."

Martin Chorzempa, of the Washington-based Peterson Institute, said: "Even China with its thriving technology ecosystem and immense government subsidies has failed to produce advanced chips. It's unimaginable that Russia would be capable of doing so."

Schnheitswahn in der Intimzone Bei jungen Frauen boomen Schamlippen-OPs

2022-02-24T03:21:00.001-08:00

Sch?nheitswahn in der Intimzone

Bei jungen Frauen boomen Schamlippen-OPs

Der Sch?nheitswahn dringt mehr und mehr in die Intimzone vor: Die Nachfrage nach Schamlippenkorrekturen explodiert in der Schweiz!

Publiziert: 08:15 Uhr

Aktualisiert: vor 16 Minuten

Sarah Liechti* (25) hat sich von ihrer Scham getrennt - zumindest von zwei Zentimetern davon. Ihre inneren Schamlippen waren l?nger, schauten zwischen den ?usseren Schamlippen hervor. <>, sagt die Z?rcherin. Vor einem halben Jahr hat sie sich deshalb unters Messer gelegt. F?r 3000 Franken.

Jetzt sind ihre inneren Schamlippen kleiner. Zu sehen ist nur noch: ein Schlitz. Halt wie im Porno. Die ?usseren Schamlippen bedecken die inneren komplett. Nachdem bereits Prominente wie Reality-TV-Star Melody Haase (28) oder Schauspielerin Julie Delpy (52) ?ffentlich ?ber ihre Sch?nheitseingriffe in der Intimzone gesprochen haben, boomt der Trend nun auch in der Schweiz.

Die Nachfrage nach Schamlippenkorrekturen ist in den letzten f?nf Jahren massiv gestiegen. Um bis zu 50 Prozent, sch?tzt die Schweizerische Gesellschaft f?r Plastische, Rekonstruktive und ?sthetische Chirurgie. F?r die Schweiz gibt es keine genauen Zahlen, doch lag die weltweite Anzahl Schamlippenkorrekturen 2020 bei rund 142'000. F?nf Jahre zuvor waren es noch 95'000.

Patientinnen sind 18 bis 25 Jahre alt

Den Trend bemerken vor allem die Sch?nheitskliniken. Zum Beispiel FineSkin mit f?nf Standorten in und um Z?rich. Sie bieten seit Herbst Schamlippenkorrekturen an. Pro Woche sind es ein bis zwei Eingriffe von je einer Stunde. Verantwortlich ist der plastische Chirurg Konstantinos Pilichos (55). Er sagt: <> Neben Brust-OPs, Fettabsaugen und Facelifting.

Die allermeisten seiner Patientinnen sind jung - zwischen 18 und 25 Jahre alt. Eine zweite Gruppe bestehe aus etwas ?lteren Frauen, die nach der Geburt eines Kindes mit ihrer Vulva nicht mehr zufrieden seien. Pilichos sagt: <> Daneben gebe es auch Patientinnen, die Schmerzen h?tten. <> Dass die inneren Schamlippen bei manchen Frauen l?nger seien, sei genetisch bedingt, so Pilichos.

Dies ist bei Liechti der Fall. Gesundheitlich war die OP bei ihr nicht notwendig. Aber, sagt sie: <> Da sei einfach zu viel raush?ngende Haut gewesen. Nicht alle empfanden das so. Ihr Ex-Freund sagte ihr immer wieder, wie sch?n ihre Vulva sei. Doch Liechti beurteilte das anders. <> Sie fand sich als Frau nicht attraktiv, ihre Vulva gar abstossend. Deshalb entschloss sie sich zur OP.

Wertsch?tzung von klein auf lernen

Fachleute beurteilen den Trend kritisch. Gyn?kologin Christiane Kluckert (57) ist die Motivation der Sch?nheitschirurgen ein ?rgernis: <> Sie w?rden sich den Frauen gegen?ber verst?ndnisvoll zeigen, obwohl diesen mit einem Gespr?ch ?ber die unterschiedlichen Facetten von Mensch, K?rper und Sexualit?t viel eher geholfen w?re. <>, sagt Kluckert.

Auch Sexologin Dania Schiftan bem?ngelt die Beweggr?nde des Eingriffs: <> Oft mache man einen solchen Eingriff, weil man einer anderen Person gefallen wolle. Dies bedeute: Man kann den eigenen K?rper nicht so annehmen, wie er ist, sch?tzt ihn als weniger toll oder wertvoll ein als andere. <>, sagt Schiftan.

Wichtig w?re: Frauen sollten ihr Geschlecht schon als kleine M?dchen auf positive Art und Weise kennenlernen d?rfen. <>, sagt Schiftan.

Die Vulva-Galerie

Sarah Liechti stimmt Schiftan zu. Der OP-Entscheid fiel ihr nicht leicht.
Auf Instagram folgt Liechti <> - ein Account mit knapp 800'000 Followern, der die Vielfalt der Vulven zelebriert. Er ist Teil der Social-Media-Bewegung <> - zu Deutsch: Alle Vulven sind sch?n. Liechti sagt: <> Trotzdem bereut sie sie nicht. <>, sagt sie. <>

*Name bekannt

Vulva oder Vagina?

F?lschlicherweise wird das sichtbare weibliche Geschlechtsorgan meist als Vagina bezeichnet. Dabei ist die Vagina die etwa zehn Zentimeter lange Scheide, die die sichtbaren mit den inneren Sexualorganen verbindet. Der korrekte Begriff f?r das sichtbare Genital lautet Vulva - damit sind Klitoris, ?ussere und innere Schamlippen gemeint.

BSP remains relevant Muslims will also vote for it Amit Shah - The Indian Express

2022-02-21T08:47:00.001-08:00

Mayawati has not lost her relevance and the BSP will get votes in Uttar Pradesh, senior BJP leader Amit Shah said in an interview to News18 channel.

As campaigning for the fourth phase of elections came to a close in the state, the Union Home Minister said the Jatav vote remained with the BSP and that Muslims too would vote for the BSP in a number of seats. Asked whether this would help the BJP, Shah said: "I do not know if this would be an advantage for the BJP or a loss. It depends on the seat... it's seat specific. But it's not true that Mayawati's relevance is over."

The Samajwadi Party, which is seen as the BJP's main competitor for power in UP, is counting on retaining its Muslim vote and weaning away traditional voters of other parties.

Asked about Mayawati keeping a low profile, Shah said it did not mean her support base had entirely eroded.

[embedded content]

With the BJP accused of using polarisation to win votes, he denied that Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's statement calling the UP election an 80 vs 20 battle suggested a contest between Hindus and Muslims in the state.

"I don't think this election is about Muslims or Yadavs or Hindus. Yogiji may have spoken about vote percentages but not about Muslims vs Hindus... Voting pattern can't be termed polarisation," Shah said.

While "polarisation" was happening, he added, it was by the Opposition. "The poor and farmers are being polarised," Shah argued.

In his first comments on the hijab row in Karnataka educational institutions, the Union Home Minister said: "It is my personal belief that people of all religions should accept a school's dress code. And the issue is now in court... Whatever it decides should be followed by all."

He also expressed confidence that the BJP would win a clear majority and not need anyone's help to form the government in UP. "All we need would be constructive support of Opposition parties to run the government, for which we would need the BSP and the SP as well."

Having travelled across UP, Shah said, he had found that the Yogi Adityanath government had won "the hearts of the people", and that "Support and love for the Prime Minister is much higher today than it was in December 2013".

Criticising Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for questioning the BJP government's foreign policy and Kashmir policy, and saying it had brought Pakistan and China closer, Shah said: "Rahul Gandhi does not know the history of this country. He does not know what happened in 1962 and because of whom. The Modi government has given a strong reply to every challenge posed by China."

On the delay in implementation of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, after the government pushed it through Parliament despite protests against it, Shah said the delay was because of the Covid situation. "But there is no question of going back on it."

Russias military build-up near Ukraine is growing not shrinking warns West - Reuters

2022-02-16T19:08:00.001-08:00

Estonia says Russia 'likely' to launch 'limited' attack

Russia releases video showing tanks leaving Crimea

Ukraine defense ministry hack worst of its kind, says government

MOSCOW/KYIV, Feb 16 (Reuters) - There is a growing Russian military presence at Ukraine's borders, Western countries warned on Wednesday, as Estonia said battle groups were moving ahead of a likely attack to occupy "key terrain," contradicting Moscow's insistence of a pullback.

More armored vehicles, helicopters and a field hospital have been spotted, Britain's defense intelligence chief said in rare public comments.

Up to 7,000 more troops have moved to the border in recent days, including some arriving on Wednesday, a senior official in U.S. President Joe Biden's administration said, without providing evidence.

World powers are engaged in one of the deepest crises in East-West relations for decades, jostling over post-Cold War influence and energy supplies as Russia wants to stop Ukraine ever joining the NATO military alliance.

Western nations have suggested arms control and confidence-building steps to defuse the standoff, which has prompted them to urge their citizens to leave Ukraine because an attack could come at any time. Russia denies it has any plans to invade.

"There's what Russia says. And then there's what Russia does. And we haven't seen any pullback of its forces," U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in an interview on MSNBC.

"We continue to see critical units moving toward the border, not away from the border."

Estonian intelligence is aware of around 10 battle groups of troops moving toward the Ukrainian border, where it estimates about 170,000 soldiers are already deployed, said Mikk Marran, director general of the Estonian Foreign Intelligence Service.

The attack would include missile bombardment and the occupation of "key terrain," he added.

"If Russia is successful in Ukraine, it would encourage it to increase pressure on the Baltics in the coming years," he said. "The threat of war has become the main policy tool for Putin."

Russia's defense ministry said its forces were pulling back after exercises in southern and western military districts near Ukraine, and Moscow's ambassador to Ireland insisted forces in western Russia would be back to their normal positions within three to four weeks.

It published video that it said showed tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and self-propelled artillery units leaving the Crimean peninsula, which Moscow seized from Ukraine in 2014.

But NATO military commanders are drawing up plans for new combat units that diplomats said could be deployed in Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary and Slovakia.

Such units - designed to buy time for additional soldiers to reach the front line if needed - already exist in Poland and the Baltic states.

Britain will double the size of its force in Estonia and send tanks and armored fighting vehicles to the small Baltic republic bordering Russia as part of the NATO deployment.

'DAY OF UNITY'

A view shows a freight train transporting Russian military vehicles, which leave the Crimean peninsula towards the Russian mainland along a railway bridge across the Kerch Strait, in this still image taken from video released February 16, 2022. Russian Defence Ministry/Handout via REUTERS

Ukraine also increased the number of border guards on its frontier with Belarus, Russia's ally, where some 9,000 Russian troops are estimated to be involved in military exercises.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, who is criss-crossing the country to help bolster Ukrainians' morale, observed drills by his armed forces that included Javelin anti-tank missiles.

Wednesday was designated a patriotic holiday in response to reports Russia could invade on that day. "No one can love our home as we can. And only we, together, can protect our home," he said. read more

People raised flags and played the national anthem to show unity against fears of an invasion.

The government said a cyberattack that hit the defense ministry was the worst of its kind the country had seen, pointing the finger at Russia, which denied involvement. read more

U.S. officials were as yet unable to say who was responsible, White House spokesperson Jen Psaki said.

'MORE TROOPS ON WAY'

The risk of Russian aggression against Ukraine would remain high for the rest of February and Russia could still attack Ukraine "with essentially no, or little-to-no, warning," according to a senior Western intelligence official.

NATO said it could prove Russia's failure to pull back its soldiers with satellite imagery. "More troops are on their way," said Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.

Moscow has accused the West of hysterical war propaganda after repeated warnings of a possible attack.

Russia sees Ukraine joining NATO as a threat to its security and has said it is ready to reroute energy exports to other markets if it is hit by sanctions, which Washington and its allies have threatened if it invades.

Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said sanctions against Russian banks would be "unpleasant" but the state would ensure all bank deposits and transactions were secured. read more

Despite the war of words, diplomatic efforts continue.

Biden and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz underscored the "importance of continued transatlantic coordination" on a call on Wednesday, the White House said.

Ukraine has asked the U.N. Security Council to discuss on Thursday a bid by Russia's parliament to recognize self-proclaimed separatists.

British foreign minister Liz Truss is due to visit Kyiv this week and Blinken will travel to Germany for the Munich Security Conference, which starts on Friday, to coordinate with allies.

"The door continues to be open to diplomacy," said Psaki.

GOP Rep Adam Kinzinger says the Republicans who support Putin have an affection for authoritarianism

Rep. Adam Kinzinger again blasted Republican political figures who support Russia's goals for Ukraine.

He said said an "affection for authoritarianism" has led some Republicans to advocate for Vladimir Putin.

Kinzinger said Putin is seen as a person defending the "culture of the past."

GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois said on Sunday that a growing number of Republican political figures are showing an "affection for authoritarianism" by voicing support for Russian President Vladimir Putin's campaign to stop Ukraine from joining NATO.

In an interview with CBS' "Face The Nation," Kinzinger was asked about the segment of the Republican Party who asked President Joe Biden not to interfere with Putin's goal. The congressman said this group isn't "a huge portion" of his party, but that "it's way too big and it's growing."

In the interview, Kinzinger cited "having an affection for authoritarianism" as one of the possible reasons why some party members have taken Putin's side. He also put the blame on people being naive about foreign policy and Putin's public image.

"And I think Vladimir Putin has done a decent job of engaging in culture battles and culture war, and he is seen as the person defending, in essence, the culture of the past. And so it's very frightening," he told CBS' Margaret Brennan.

Kinzinger added that "any Republican that has affection for Vladimir Putin has no understanding of what our party stands for or what our country stands for."

During the interview, he also singled out Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who has repeatedly sided with Putin over Ukraine-Russia tensions and thrown doubts at Washington's backing of Ukraine.

Carlson in January shrugged off claims that he was a "pawn of Putin," calling the idea "stupid." At the time, he had just commented that Russia's amassing of more than 100,000 troops on the Ukrainian border was due to Putin wanting to "keep his western borders secure" -- rhetoric that's also been used by the Kremlin.

Kinzinger's comments also come as Carlson continues to build a working relationship with Hungarian far-right leader Viktor Orb?n, who has regularly been called an authoritarian by political commentators and NGOs.

A vocal critic of former President Donald Trump, Kinzinger has previously slammed US political figures for supporting Putin. On February 3, he tweeted that Senator John Hawley was "one of the worst human beings" and a "con artist" for calling on Biden to block Ukraine from joining NATO.

When Hawley called Kinzinger's outburst "weird," the Illinois representative accused Hawley of being "more interested in pleasing Tucker and playing to worst instincts than leading."

This month, the Republican National Committee voted to censure Kinzinger and GOP Rep. Liz Cheney for their participation in the January 6 House Committee. Kinzinger had announced earlier that he wouldn't seek re-election this year, and has hinted -- but not confirmed -- that he may run for governor instead.

Liverpools Mane in contention for Burnley Henderson to return

2022-02-11T03:56:00.001-08:00

Liverpool forward Sadio Mane is in line to feature to against Burnley in the Premier League on Sunday following Senegal's title win at the Africa Cup of Nations, with captain Jordan Henderson also available, manager Juergen Klopp said on Friday.

Mane, who scored the winning penalty as Senegal beat Egypt in the final, last played for Liverpool over a month ago, while Henderson missed Thursday's league win against Leicester City after picking up a back injury.

"I assume Sadio will be in full training today and then we'll make a decision after that on how he feels and all that stuff," Klopp told reporters.

"He will probably still be emotionally high-flying, but physically we have to see how intense the last few days were for him.

"Hendo, yes, definitely will be back. That's the plan. It was the plan before the game and is still the plan now. If nothing happens, he will play on Sunday."

Klopp also confirmed that defender Joe Gomez and striker Divock Origi were fit and available after failing to make the squad against Leicester.

Second-placed Liverpool, who trail leaders Manchester City by nine points, take on a Burnley side that held Manchester United to a draw earlier this week, and Klopp said he was impressed with their performance.

"I had the pleasure to watch Burnley against United. This situation explains the Premier League the best. The quality they produced was incredible. It was a proper team performance. There is a big possibility for them to still stay in the league," said the German.

Sean Dyche's team, who sit bottom of the league with 14 points from 20 games, are four points from the safety zone but have a couple of games in hand.

"They brought in a new striker (Wout Weghorst). If you saw the game, you would have seen he is a lively boy... Burnley ask for all physicality you can put in a game, we cannot have the ball all the time and they are good when they have the ball," added Klopp.

"They have footballers everywhere. On top of that, the set-piece threat, we have to be aware and concentrated."

Nicole Kidman up for best actress Oscar Power of the Dog tops nominations list

2022-02-08T08:09:00.001-08:00

By Garry MaddoxUpdated February 9, 2022 -- 2.19amfirst published at 1.06am

With a former Oscar winner in Nicole Kidman, a new Hollywood star in Kodi Smit-McPhee and Australian-New Zealand co-production The Power of the Dog leading the way, Australia will be strongly represented at the Academy Awards next month.

The Netflix film The Power of the Dog topped this year's Oscar nominations with 12. The sci-fi epic Dune followed closely behind with 10 nods when the names were read on Tuesday morning.

Kidman, who won for The Hours and has also been up for Moulin Rouge, Rabbit Hole and Lion, has been nominated again for her uncanny performance as Lucille Ball in the behind-the-scenes drama Being The Ricardos.

Smit-McPhee, best known for Romulus My Father, The Road and the X-Men films, has his first nomination at the age of for his brilliant portrayal of a fey young medical student in Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog.

The nominations, announced overnight in Los Angeles by actors Leslie Jordan and Tracee Ellis Ross, saw Campion make Oscars history. Her triumphant return to film after two seasons of Top of the Lake saw her nominated for producing, directing and writing the Australian-New Zealand co-production mesmerising psychological drama with a western feel.

Campion was already part of an elite group of only seven women to be nominated for best director - for The Piano. She is now the first to be nominated twice and is an excellent chance of joining the only two others to win - Kathryn Bigelow for The Hurt Locker and Chloe Zhao last year for Nomadland.

But that is far from the only recognition for Australians at the 94th awards.

Peter Sciberras, whose previous films have included working with director David Michod on The Rover, War Machine and The King, is nominated as best editor for The Power of the Dog.

And cinematographer Greig Fraser has continued his rise into Hollywood's upper echelons by being nominated for the sci-fi blockbuster Dune. With an impressive filmography over the past decade that includes Zero Dark Thirty, Foxcatcher, Lion, Rogue One, Vice, The Mandalorian and the coming The Batman, he has previously been nominated for an Oscar for Lion.

Delayed Oscars ceremony

A largely virtual awards season added some unpredictability to this year's nominations, which are occurring later than usual.

To make way for the Olympics, the Oscars will be held on March 27 and will return to their usual venue, the Dolby Theatre.

In pulling from films released in myriad ways, these Oscar nominations reflect a tumultuous pandemic year for Hollywood that began with many theatres shuttered and ended with Sony Pictures' Spider-Man: No Way Home smashing box-office records.

In between, much of the normal rhythm of the movie business was transformed, as studios pushed some of the biggest movies of the year to streaming services in a bid to lure subscribers. Films including Dune (despite the objections of its director), Pixar's Luca and King Richard were among those that went straight to homes.

As COVID-19 cases surged in the last two months due to the Omicron variant, much of Oscar season also turned virtual. Last year, the pandemic led the academy to host a delayed Oscars in a socially distanced ceremony at Los Angeles' Union Station. Ratings plummeted to an all-time low of 9.85 million viewers.

This year, the academy has yet to map out plans for its show, except it will include a host for the first time since 2018.

For better or worse, the Academy Awards will also be without its usual lead-in. The Golden Globes in January were an untelevised non-event after NBC said it wouldn't air them, while the beleaguered Hollywood Foreign Press reformed itself after ethics and diversity criticism.

Enzymes are biological molecules (typically proteins) that significantly speed up the rate of virtually all of the chemical reactions that take place within cells. Without enzymes, many of these reactions would not take place at a perceptible rate.

The main enzymes are proteases (which break up proteins), lipases (which break up fats), and amylases (which attack starch). These are effective in removing limescale deposits from the taps and steel appliances.

Victoria ruling will kill off access to solar and EV charging for apartment buildings

2022-02-02T17:24:00.001-08:00

In the lead-up to the 2018 Victorian Election, planning minister Richard Wynne gathered a handful of reporters in Prahran to announce what amounted to an effective ban on embedded networks in residential apartment buildings.

The energy industry was left wondering what the planning minister was doing dabbling in and announcing energy policy. Our hope at the time was that sanity and sensible policy would ultimately prevail.

But the expert panel appointed last year to review the state's embedded network industry has produce a final report, and the news is not good: They have recommended a series of measures that would, indeed, create an effective ban on residential embedded networks.

If implemented, the measures will cut off access to renewable energy and EV charging for most new apartment buildings, retirement villages, and other types of multi-dwelling sites. We estimate the ban will stop 15MW of solar and some 50,000 EV chargers from being installed over the next five years.

In this blog, we unpick the recommendations and discuss what it means for Victorian embedded network occupants and the industry.

A little background...

Embedded networks are private networks that serve multiple customers within a building or site. They are common in apartment buildings, retirement villages, social housing, caravan parks and shopping centres.

.re-mid-article {min-height:250px;}

As of March 2021, there were 166,000 customers being supplied by 1500 embedded networks in Victoria with 80% of these customers being residential. Each embedded network is serviced by a single embedded network operator that coordinates the purchasing, metering, billing, and customer service of energy services at a given site.

Well-managed embedded networks can deliver a range of benefits for consumers, specifically the ability to purchase electricity at large customer rates generally leading to lower energy bills, integration of renewable energy and other new energy technology, and upfront energy infrastructure savings.

But the embedded network industry has unfortunately been marred by instances of price gouging customers who are unable to leave their embedded network. Furthermore, embedded networks operators have been operating in a regulatory-lite environment where customers do not enjoy the same consumer protections as other customers.

Regulatory changes to date (e.g. Power of Choice reforms circa December 2017) have failed to adequately address the issues that consumers face or empower embedded network operators to make customer transfers easy. The ban was proposed by the Victorian government as a means of protecting consumers.

What exactly is proposed to be banned and how?

The report proposes to introduce a ban on embedded networks in residential settings in Victoria initially through changes to the General Exemption Order (GEO) to the Electricity Industry Act 2000 in mid-2022 and later by introducing a new licensing framework enabling the licensing of "Local Energy Services" (LES) Providers in early 2024. The coverage of this ban would include:

Residential apartment buildings

Social housing

Retirement village, and

Residential parks (i.e. Caravan parks)

The report also recommends the Victorian government consider extending the ban to small business customers.

Embedded networks will continue to be allowed where 50% or more of the electricity consumed at the site is met by on-site renewable generation sources and the benefits of these renewables are passed on to customers.

It is very unclear in the report whether "met by on-site renewable sources" is intended to be a gross or net calculation. According to a government source, this was intentional. (For example, if a site needs 100 units of energy, generates 50 units from on-site solar but exports 20 units, does that count as "met"?)

Sites registered after January 01, 2023, must comply with the new requirements and sites registered under the GEO before the licensing framework is established will no longer be automatically approved. Prior to this, the site will be covered by grandfathering measures being afforded to legacy networks.

What about legacy networks?

Legacy residential embedded networks will also be impacted and be required to:

Update their registration with the Essential Services Commission and demonstrate they comply with the new requires of the GEO;

Meet the 50% onsite renewable energy target by installing the maximum amount of onsite renewable energy and purchase the balance via the market through Power Purchase Agreements or buying GreenPower; and

Apply for a LES license within three years of it being introduced (by 2027).

Isn't a renewable energy target a good thing?

We are big fans of renewable energy and carbon targets, but not ones where governments prescribe how the target should be met, as they can lead to economically inefficient outcomes and stifle innovation.

If implemented, the renewable target set out by the report would be the only sector-specific renewable energy target anywhere in Australia, and further still, the only onsite renewable energy target for any sector in Australia and probably in the world.

If delivering energy to customers at lowest cost is the Victoria Government objective then onsite renewable energy target will not necessarily achieve this and in many cases will lead to increased costs for consumers. Owners and corporations will no doubt need to dig into their pockets to install equipment to meet the targets.

Embedded networks are the most cost-effective way of delivering renewable energy to customers within apartments and others multi-dwelling settings. But setting this target means that many sites that could strongly benefit from renewable energy today, but can't meet the target, will be locked out of renewable energy options now and in the future. It cuts off options for future multi-lot residential complexes to:

Bulk purchase renewable energy - such as via a power purchase agreement

Install onsite renewable energy that would deliver less than 50% renewable energy but still be benefical. (E.g. why should a site with 45% renewable energy generation not be allowed to proceed if it delivers good outcomes for consumers?)

Meet 50% renewable energy target in a few years due to advances in technology but can not today. It is incredibly difficult to set up embedded networks retrospectively to enable renewable energy projects.

Install demand response and managed EV charging to make best use of renewables by removing a logical aggregation point.

Our view is that the negative impacts of the proposed onsite renewable energy target have not been considered in detail.

Is there anything to like about the review?

The report recommends making amendments to the GEO to ensure that customers have access to consumer protections that are equal or equivalent to those provided to other customers.

In addition, there are recommendations for improved monitoring, compliance and enforcement of embedded networks.

Lastly, it has been recommended that there is increased disclosure requirements of embedded networks to prospective owners and occupants of sites planned to have embedded networks installed.

These are sensible recommendations to improve consumer protections and transparency within the industry.

What should be the Victorian government's approach?

Firstly, let us ask what should be the objective of the Victorian government?

Improving consumer protections

Driving down energy costs for consumers by enabling retail competition

Enabling more renewables, or

Simply trying to save face on an election promise that was an ill-informed, blunt force policy - implementing a ban

Keep in mind that just 74 customers out of the 131,000 residential embedded network customers (0.06%) provided a submission to the review. It was hardly a landslide of complaints about the industry. Further, the Energy and Water Ombudsman of Victoria (EWOV) data shows that embedded network providers are subject to complaints at half the rate of traditional energy retailers.

Embedded networks operators are reporting that since the introduction of the VDO, complaints about pricing have dropped nearly to zero. So why is there even a need for a ban on embedded networks? It hardly seems like a proportional response.

Putting aside the implementation of a ban, the government could have focused on sensible policy that would lead to better protections and lower-cost outcomes for consumers.

The embedded network industry is intensely frustrated by the single mindedness of the government on a the need to ban something and has been crying out for the government to fix issues the regulatory issues that have led to the issues.

Specifically, issues relating to meter contestability, meter transparency, and AEMO B2B integration with networks and retailers and harmonising Victoria's regulatory framework with the AEMC's Embedded Network Rule Charges that will make it easier for customers of embedded networks to access retail competition.

If the Victorian government really wants to ban something, then implement a ban on embedded networks that do not have frictionless access to retail competition. Putting the regulatory frameworks and systems in place so that disgruntled customers can leave without a fuss is something that everyone can get behind.

Regarding the 50% renewables target, we would propose simply linking the target to the VRET and removing the onsite requirement would lead to far better outcomes for customers and the environment.

In summary

The overall approach to a ban proposed by the report is certainly not a great outcome for anyone. (In fairness to the Expert Panel the terms of reference made it extremely difficult to propose anything other than a ban.)

A ban on embedded networks in Victoria, regardless of the caveats, is a disastrous outcome for strata consumers and communities, the embedded network industry, and innovation within the energy industry as a whole. It locks out:

Customer access to energy at consistently low prices (all customers in most embedded networks should be able to enjoy prices consistent with the best retail rates in the market)

Customer access to distributed renewable energy generation and battery storage or sites that do not meet the lofty goals of ambitions of the government

Easy integration of EV charging infrastructure into apartment buildings enabled by embedded networks

Opportunities for innovative community energy projects

Implementation of a ban will inevitably lead to higher costs to owners corporations and customers of embedded networks as the costs of compliance are passed down. There will also be stagnation of an whole industry and poorer service outcomes for customers as the embedded network industry with a dim future rushes to cut costs (and probably the exits).

In implementing the findings of the report, we hope that the Victorian government comes to its senses and makes regulatory changes that don't throw the proverbial baby out with the bath water.

Ph Value Of Activated Carbon

2022-01-29T23:18:00.001-08:00

Ph Value Of Activated Carbon. The limiting ph was taken as being the value of ph (pzc). Contact us to find out how we can help you in all means.

pH point of zero charge (pHpzc) of activated carbons from www.researchgate.net

The ph value of the solution also influences the adsorption capacity significantly. The ph was determined by using the method of abdullah [ 15] with a slight modification. The ph value of activated carbon is a measure of whether it is acidic or basic.

The ph value of the activated carbon will be adjusted to buffer to neutral as it will avoid the formation of invert sugar. Low ash, high ph value.

Equilibrium adsorption experiments such adsorption experiments were carried out. Was reported earlier that the ph value of pzc for activated carbon whk as 2.5 (1).

Equilibrium adsorption experiments such adsorption experiments were carried out. Variation of ph relative to the amount of activated carbon employed.

The activated carbon itself can act as an ion exchange type media and that can contribute to ph rise. In a column process, the possibility to reactivate the activated carbon offers an economical and environmental advantage.

Amount of surfactant adsorbed by active carbon increase. The actual rise in ph depends on several factors such as the ash content of the starting material, total dissolved solids (tds) of the influent water, and ph of the influent water.

The activated carbon itself can act as an ion exchange type media and that can contribute to ph rise. Pioneers in import & export.

The particle size distribution of a grade is defined using test sieves. When a fresh activated carbon water filter is put on stream, it may give initially a ph rise to a value between 9 and 12, with the final value depending on the water source.

This may account for the high capacity for w1 carbons and a negligible one for w2. The particle size distribution of a grade is defined using test sieves.

Activated carbon can remove and destroy residual disinfectants (chlorine and chloramine) through a catalytic reduction reaction. Therefore, the most meaningful ph value is that measured immediately prior to use.

Chemically activated carbons have an acid ph after activation. The threshold value derived from analysis of the data occurs at a ph around 4.5.

The mass titration method was proposed by noah and schwartz for the determination of the net charge of alumina oxides in solution. Was reported earlier that the ph value of pzc for activated carbon whk as 2.5 (1).

The ph value required for the net surface charge of activated carbon is zero and is known as the point of zero charge (phpzc). Ce/qe = 1/qm kl + ce/qm , where ce is the equilibrium concentration of the adsorbate and qe is the adsorption capacity adsorbed at equilibrium, qm.

The actual rise in ph depends on several factors such as the ash content of the starting material, total dissolved solids (tds) of the influent water, and ph of the influent water. This was found to be 7.8 for f100.

Due to the ability of activated carbon to be used to equilibrium capacity, the same material can be used in low load, followed by high load adsorption points in the treatment system. The ph was measured after the solution was diluted to 200 ml and cooled to room temperature.

At ph 3, 15 ppm of labs and dbs are adsorbed by active carbon at the percentage of 91.48 and 99.6, respectively. The actual rise in ph depends on several factors such as the ash content of the starting material, total dissolved solids (tds) of the influent water, and ph of the influent water.

Equilibrium adsorption experiments such adsorption experiments were carried out. When granular activated carbon is used in continuous processes, i.e.

After stabilization, the final ph was recorded. The ph was measured after the solution was diluted to 200 ml and cooled to room temperature.

Nitrogen was bubbled through the solution at 25 0c to remove the dissolved carbon dioxide. After stabilization, the final ph was recorded.

How do you find the iodine value of activated carbon? The ph value of the solution also influences the adsorption capacity significantly.

This was found to be 7.8 for f100. How do you find the iodine value of activated carbon?

Information About The Bet Surface Area And Porosimetry Was Provided Using An Autosorb (Iq,.

The ph pzc is an important characteristic for any activated carbon as it indicates the acidity/basicity of the adsorbent and the net surface charge of the carbon in solution. In a column process, the possibility to reactivate the activated carbon offers an economical and environmental advantage. The physical properties of activated carbon, such as surface area and pore volume, have little effect on dye adsorption, while the pore size distribution and the surface chemical characteristics play important roles in dye adsorption.

The Equation For Langmuir Adsorption Isotherm Is.

How do you find the iodine value of activated carbon? At ph 3, 15 ppm of labs and dbs are adsorbed by active carbon at the percentage of 91.48 and 99.6, respectively. Desotec can, upon request, supply chemically activated carbons with a more neutral ph.

1.0 G Carbon Sample Of Each Of Cppac, Cpzac, And Upc Was Put Into A Beaker Containing 100 Ml Of Water And Then Boiled For 5 Minutes.

Pioneers in import & export. To measure the ph pzc , the ph of the solution is maintained by using 0.1 n hcl and 0.1 n naoh solutions. The particle size distribution of a grade is defined using test sieves.

The Ph Of Date Seeds Activated Carbon And Commercial Activated Carbon Are 0.57 And 9.1 Respectively.

The ph was measured after the solution was diluted to 200 ml and cooled to room temperature. The ph value of the solution also influences the adsorption capacity significantly. The threshold value derived from analysis of the data occurs at a ph around 4.5.

The Desired Ph Of The 0.1 Mg/L Phenanthrene Solution Was Prepared From 10 Mg/L Solution With The Addition Of Either 0.1 M Hcl Or 0.1 M Naoh To Adjust The Ph As Required For Obtaining The Ph Values Of 3, 6, 9 And 12.

Generally we can say that the softer the water, the higher the increase and extent of the ph rise. When a fresh activated carbon water filter is put on stream, it may give initially a ph rise to a value between 9 and 12, with the final value depending on the water source. Low ash, high ph value.

Haushalt Schimmlige Blumenerde DAS kannst du dagegen tun

2022-01-28T05:03:00.001-08:00

Selbst Menschen mit einem gr?nen Daumen werden es im Winter kennen - den flauschigen, weissen Belag auf der Blumenerde deiner Zimmerpflanze. Doch woher kommt das, ist es sch?dlich f?r deine gr?nen Lieblinge und wie wirst du es wieder los?

Auch spannend: 5 praktische Tipps, wie du deine Pflanzen nicht t?test

Schimmlige Blumenerde: Daher kommt sie

Erstmal solltest du kl?ren, ob der weisse Belag auch wirklich Schimmel ist. Lebst du in einer Region, in der das Wasser besonders kalkhaltig ist, kann der weisse Belag auch durch Kalk- oder Mineralablagerungen entstehen. So unterscheidest du ihn von Schimmel:

Ist der Belag hart und kr?melig, handelt es sich um Mineralablagerungen. Diese kannst du einfach mit einem L?ffel oder einer kleinen Schaufel von der Oberfl?che abkratzen.

Ist der Belag eher ein weicher, weisser Pflaum, handelt es sich um Schimmel.

Aber warum entsteht der Schimmel ?berhaupt?

Blumenerde mit einem gr?sseren Humusanteil kann schimmeln. Und in der Natur ist der Schimmel auch zu etwas n?tzlich: Er h?lt sich durch die Zersetzung toter organischer Substanzen und sorgt somit f?r das biologische Gleichgewicht der Erde. Doch bei Pflanzen, die innerhalb des Hauses stehen, hat der Schimmel andere Gr?nde:

?berm?ssiges Giessen und dadurch eine feuchte Umgebung. Besonders in warmen R?umen bildet sich so schnell Schimmel.

The year 2021 was another record-breaking year for gaming chatter on Twitter as it continues to be the go-to place for the gaming community, from game publishers, media, streamers, esports leagues, commentators, and to the players. In fact, 2021 garnered more than 2.4 billion Tweets about gaming, up 14% year over year and more than 10x increase from 2017. Q4 was also the biggest quarter for gaming conversation ever on Twitter. Meanwhile, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand remain to be top communities for gaming as each earned a spot in the top 10 countries Tweeting the most about gaming globally.

The gaming community around the world came to Twitter to be part of the biggest moments in gaming in 2021, such as the return of in-person esports events and new game releases like Halo Infinite. Interestingly, 2021 is the year where NFTs take center stage as the media rapidly grew interest in covering news and stories on digital assets.

Here's a look at Twitter's global gaming conversation insights from 2021:

In the Philippines, Genshin Impact (@GenshinImpact) was the Most Tweeted About Game in 2021 followed by other equally-popular games such as Valorant (@PlayVALORANT), Roblox (@Roblox), League of Legends (@LeagueOfLegends), and Minecraft (@Minecraft) in the top five.

When it comes to esports teams, Team Secret (@teamsecret) is the Most Tweeted About Esports Team in the Philippines in 2021; followed by OG (@OGesports), T1 (@T1), Sentinels (@Sentinels), and G2 Esports (@G2esports).

"As we continue adjusting to life in the middle of a pandemic, people are finding new ways to make connections with various communities, and one of them is through gaming. The growing conversations that happened around gaming on Twitter reflect the increasing attention from the public on Twitter about various games, esports teams, and gaming personalities. Twitter is about connecting people and brands to give them the latest updates for the industry through conversations that happens #OnlyOnTwitter," said Maurizio Barbieri, head of sports & gaming partnerships for SEA and Greater China at Twitter.

So what's next for 2022?

2021 was a banner year for gaming, but there is a lot of hype about what we'll see in 2022. Twitter will help you stay up to date on all the content & conversation from esports events like the Call of Duty League, ESL Pro League, Halo Championship Series, Rocket League Championship Series, Fortnite Championship Series and Riot Games' leagues like the LCS, LEC & VCT to major gaming events like E3, Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest, IGN's Summer of Gaming, Gamescom, The Game Awards, and much more.
