E-Rickshaw is an electric powered, three-wheeled vehicle primarily utilized for commercial purposes in order to transport passengers and goods. E-rickshaw is also known as electric tuk-tuk and toto. It utilizes a battery, traction motor, and electric powertrain in order to propel the vehicle.
Rickshaws are a prominent mode of commercial passenger transportation, especially across India, China, ASEAN, and several countries in Africa. Lower cost of transport, lower cost of rickshaws, and their maneuverability across congested urban roads are some advantages of rickshaws, which are driving their demand across the globe. Moreover, stringent emission norms, rising fuel prices, incentives over e-rickshaws, and increased range of e-rickshaws are shifting consumer preference toward e-rickshaws. Furthermore, the expected ban over fuel powered vehicles is likely to propel the demand for e-rickshaws.
The global e-rickshaw market is primarily restrained by the underdeveloped charging infrastructure across several countries. Moreover, lack of regulations is also restraining the global e-rickshaw market.
The global e-rickshaw market can be segmented based on rickshaw type, battery capacity, power rating, components, application, and region. In terms of rickshaw type, the global e-rickshaw market can be classified into two segments. Considering the low weight requirement for higher efficiency, the rate of adoption of open type e-rickshaws is rising among consumers.
Based on battery capacity, the global e-rickshaw market can be bifurcated into two segments. Higher the battery capacity, longer the range of e-rickshaw; hence, owners are preferring high capacity e-rickshaws. However, for higher capacity batteries, the weight increases in proportion. In terms of power rating, the global e-rickshaw market can be segregated into three segments. Demand for e-rickshaws having motor power between 1000 and 1500 Watt is rising, which is primarily attributed to their cost effectiveness coupled with considerable torque delivery.
In terms of components, the global e-rickshaw market can be classified into five segments. Battery is a pivotal and expensive component of the e-rickshaw. Batteries require frequent maintenance and require replacement after a specific time period, in order to ensure smooth and efficient performance of the vehicle. Chassis is another vital component of the e-rickshaw and hence, accounts for a major share of the market, in terms of revenue. Based on application, the global e-rickshaw market can be bifurcated into passenger transportation and goods transportation. The passenger transportation segment held a prominent share of the market, in terms of revenue, in 2020, which is attributed to the increased use of rickshaws for passenger commutation. Moreover, incorporation of e-rickshaws by on-demand transportation companies is likely to propel the passenger transportation segment of the market.
In terms of region, the global e-rickshaw market can be segmented into five prominent regions. Asia Pacific accounted for a major share of the market, in terms of revenue, in 2020, which is primarily attributed to the rising demand from consumers, government incentives and supportive policies, ban over fuel-powered rickshaws, and increasing fuel prices. Moreover, rickshaws are a prominent mode of transportation across urban areas of several countries in Asia, such as China and India. Moreover, presence of globally leading e-rickshaw manufacturers is another prominent driver of the e-rickshaw market in Asia Pacific.
Key players operating in the global e-rickshaw market are Mahindra Electric Mobility Limited, MICROTEK, Nezonegroup, Arna Electric Auto Private Limited, GREEN VALLEY MOTORS, GEM E Rickshaw, SuperEco, Bajaj Auto Limited, Xianghe Qiangsheng Electric Tricycle Factory, Hitek Electric Auto Co., YUVA E RICKSHAW, J.S.

Dan + Shay Perform 'Speechless' at Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner's Surprise Vegas Wedding [Watch]
Dan + Shay were on hand at musician Joe Jonas' wedding to actress Sophie Turner on Wednesday night (May 1), performing their hit song "Speechless" as the bride walked down the aisle.
Jonas and Turner made headlines all over the world with their surprise wedding. The couple have been together since 2016, and they got engaged in October of 2017, but they did not reveal their wedding plans in advance.
Dan + Shay joined the couple at a wedding chapel in Las Vegas to perform "Speechless" just hours after the country duo performed the song with Tori Kelley at the MGM Grand Garden Arena as part of the 2019 Billboard Music Awards. E! reports that Dan + Shay and the Jonas Brothers have been friends since they performed together at the 2015 ACM Awards.
"Our managers connected us first," Nick Jonas said in 2015. "And I heard that they liked what I was doing and I love what they were doing, and it just happened pretty organically."
DJ and producer Diplo live-streamed Jonas and Turner's wedding on Instagram. Click on the video above to see Dan + Shay perform "Speechless" at the beginning of the ceremony as Turner — who plays Sansa Stark on HBO's runaway hit show Game of Thrones — walks down the aisle. Turner and Jonas were then married by an Elvis impersonator, according to E!
R&B star Khalid was also present at the nuptials along with Nick and Kevin Jonas, who stood by their brother's side. Jonas and Turner reportedly exchanged RingPops in lieu of actual wedding rings.

Looking for the right home can be a daunting process for first time buyers and seasoned vets alike. From the style of the house to the type of appliances, there are countless factors that can go into such a big purchase. The following short checklist outlines the most important things you should think about when you're on the hunt for a new home. 1. Define your budget: It's never fun to fall in love with a house that you can't afford. Avoid the heartbreak by taking the time to analyze your financial situation before you begin the search. Start by reviewing your credit score, monitoring your debt and choosing an appropriate down payment. Meeting with a financial professional can help you get an accurate picture of your financial situation and the loans you are eligible for. Looking at your debt-to-income ratio is one of the ways that creditors establish how qualified you are for a mortgage loan. Your debt-to-income ratio is determined by taking your monthly debt (think current mortgage payments, student loans, car loans, etc.) and divide them by your gross monthly income. Ideally, you want to keep that ratio at 43% or lower. According to the Federal Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, "studies of mortgage loans suggest that borrowers with a higher debt-to-income ratio are more likely to run into trouble making monthly payments. The 43 percent debt-to-income ratio is important because, in most cases, that is the highest ratio a borrower can have and still get a Qualified Mortgage." Don't skip the down-payment analysis! A huge factor in getting the best mortgage rate relies on how much cash you are able to put down initially. The rule of thumb has been to put 20% down as a minimum. Anything below the 20% rule will usually require mortgage insurance and end up costing you more on the loan long term. Determining the right path for you will require you to analyze your own situation—your budget, timeframe and any other factors involved in figuring out your financial capacity to save and put money away for your new home. 2. Your Must-Have List: Always search for homes that meet your "must-have" list. A must-have list encourages you to write out exactly what you need in a new home and will significantly aid in narrowing down the scope of your search, especially when searching with another person. This list will also foster communication on critical aspects of your new home that might not have been discussed previously, and help you identify requirements that may be in conflict with each other. Focus your list on the high-level, pricey aspects of a home. Minor changes such as painting and smaller renovation projects can be worked on down the road, but changes that add up in time and money should be avoided (think kitchen remodels or adding another bathroom). Narrowing down your search to homes that don't require major changes will help ensure you choose a home that is within your budget. If you are struggling on where to start, think about what type of home you want to live in–Single Family or Townhome/Condo? How many bathrooms and bedrooms do you need? Do you want a fireplace or pool? What's the minimum lot size you would be comfortable with and do you require a garage? What about air conditioning? Keep your list short and sweet–try to keep your must-haves on the shorter side by focusing on major requirements and ranking them by importance. Prioritizing your list will help when it comes to decision-making time, as selecting a home will often require some flexibility. Your list will provide you with an easy way to determine which aspects you can compromise on and which are red flags telling you to move on. Compromise can be hard, but don't let small things completely take a home off of your short list. Remember, minor changes such as painting and smaller renovation projects can be worked on down the road, however, if there are a lot of these things the costs of those projects can add up. Focus on the minor modifications that you feel comfortable changing. 3. Location, Location, Location! While the importance of location is often a no-brainer, the location of your potential new home serves multiple purposes. Location will impact your daily life and happiness as well as your home's value down the road. When looking at location in terms of resell value, you want to look at a multitude of things: school districts, crime stats, and the neighborhood & community. A little research can answer most of these questions, and this website offers Market Insider, a tool to give you details on all these factors and more! Besides looking at the current stats and trends, take this information and think about what the value of the area might be in 5 or 10 years when you potentially could resell your home. Along with the resale value, analyze the location of a home from the perspective of your wellbeing and happiness. Things such as your daily commute, surrounding noise, and community will greatly shape your experience in the home. Along with this checklist, seeking guidance from a professional is always a good idea! A realtor like me can offer a wide array of skills and expertise, from the showing of a home to the endless paperwork. You can count on me to guide you through the process and assist in your home buying decisions. Finding the right home might not necessarily mean finding the "perfect" home, but rather, finding the right home for you to make your own. Hopefully this checklist provides you with a guide to start your journey towards the right home. When you're ready to start looking, don't hesitate to give me a call! |

The new nominees for the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame are out and some usual suspects and a couple of rap wildcards are now in the mix.
According to Spin:
Hard-rock icons Guns N' Roses are among this year's batch of first-time nominees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ballot, along with goth-pop forefathers the Cure and hip-hop pioneers Eric B. & Rakim, the organization announced today. Joan Jett & the Blackhearts and Heart also lead the list of first-timers.
Also receiving their first Rock Hall nods are the Small Faces/Faces, the Spinners, Rufus with Chaka Khan, and Freddie King. Also on the ballot are returning nominees Donna Summer, Donovan, Laura Nyro, and War. The winners will be inducted at the ceremony April 14 in Cleveland. The event will be open to the public.
Now just because these bands are nominated doesn't mean they'll win. Some would even argue that NOT being in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame gives you more cred (as the kids say).
Just look at Iggy Pop:

Dolphins keep lifelong social memories, longest in a non-human species
- Date:
- August 6, 2013
- Source:
- University of Chicago
- Summary:
- Dolphins can recognize their old tank mates' whistles after being separated for more than 20 years — the longest social memory ever recorded for a non-human species.
- Share:
Dolphins can recognize their old tank mates' whistles after being separated for more than 20 years -- the longest social memory ever recorded for a non-human species.
The remarkable memory feat is another indication that dolphins have a level of cognitive sophistication comparable to only a few other species, including humans, chimpanzees and elephants. Dolphins' talent for social recognition may be even more long-lasting than facial recognition among humans, since human faces change over time but the signature whistle that identifies a dolphin remains stable over many decades.
"This shows us an animal operating cognitively at a level that's very consistent with human social memory," said Jason Bruck, who conducted the study and received his Ph.D. in June 2013 from the University of Chicago's program in Comparative Human Development. His study is published in the current issue of the Proceedings of the Royal Society of London B.
To establish how well dolphins could remember their former companions, Bruck collected data from 53 different bottlenose dolphins at six facilities, including Brookfield Zoo near Chicago and Dolphin Quest in Bermuda. The six sites were part of a breeding consortium that has rotated dolphins and kept records on which ones lived together, going back decades.
"This is the kind of study you can only do with captive groups when you know how long the animals have been apart," Bruck said. "To do a similar study in the wild would be almost impossible."
"Signature whistles" offer means to test memory
In recent years, other studies have established that each dolphin develops its own unique signature whistle that appears to function as a name. Researchers Vincent M. Janik and Stephanie L. King at Scotland's University of St. Andrews reported earlier this year that a wild bottlenose dolphin can learn and repeat signatures belonging to other individuals, and answer when another dolphin mimics its unique call.
Bruck played recordings of signature whistles to dolphins that had once lived with the animals that made the calls. Determining whether the dolphins recognized their old companions required a methodical comparison of how they responded to familiar calls versus calls belonging to dolphins they had never met.
First, Bruck would play recording after recording of signature whistles that the target dolphins had never heard before. His initial studies showed that these "dolphins get bored quickly listening to signature whistles from dolphins they don't know." Once they were habituated to the unfamiliar calls, Bruck would play a recording of an animal that he knew the target dolphin had lived with.
The familiar calls often would perk up the dolphins and elicit an immediate response.
"When they hear a dolphin they know, they often quickly approach the speaker playing the recording," Bruck said. "At times they will hover around, whistle at it, try to get it to whistle back."
To check that the response was the result of recognition, Bruck also would play a test recording of an unfamiliar bottlenose that was the same age and sex as the familiar animal. All the behavior was scored according to how quickly and to what degree the animals responded.
A clear pattern emerged in the data: Compared with unfamiliar calls, dolphins responded significantly more to whistles from animals they once knew, even if they had not heard the calls in decades.
An audio reunion of old companions
In one notable example, Bruck played a recording of a female dolphin named Allie, who currently lives at the Brookfield Zoo, for Bailey, a female now in Bermuda. The pair had last lived together at Dolphin Connection in the Florida Keys when Allie was 2 and Bailey was 4. But 20 years and six months after their last contact, Bailey still recognized the recording of Allie's signature whistle.
That kind of performance after decades apart was typical, leading Bruck to conclude that dolphins maintain lifelong memories of each others' whistles. In the wild, bottlenose dolphins have an average life expectancy of around 20 years, though longer-lived individuals can survive up to 45 years or more.
In fact, Bruck's study appears to show the longest pure memory of any kind in a non-human species. Anecdotally, an elephant can remember a mother after 20 years, but testing animals' long-term memories outside of family relationships requires more systematic study of multiple relationships.
Exactly why dolphins' social memories persist so long remains unclear. Dolphins exhibit sophisticated social connections that follow a "fission-fusion" model. In the open ocean, dolphins may break apart from one group and "fuse" with other groups many times over. Such relationships could have required a growth in memory capacity. But it's also possible that memory is just one facet of the advanced mind that evolved in dolphins for other reasons.
"Why do they need this kind of memory? I'm not sure they do," Bruck said. "The cognitive abilities of dolphins are really well developed, and sometimes things like this are carry-along traits. But to test whether this kind of social memory capacity is adaptive, we would need more demographic data from multiple populations in the wild to see if they experience 20-year separations."
The emergence of advanced memory in marine mammals as well as in humans shows that in evolution, "there are lots of ways to get from point A to point B," Bruck said. "It's nice to see this kind of ability in a non-primate, as this is a great example of convergent evolution."
Probing similarities to human names
Another big question such research raises is how similar dolphins' signature calls are to human words and names. So far no one has been able to test what signature whistles signify in a dolphin's mind.
"We know they use these signatures like names, but we don't know if the name stands for something in their minds the way a person's name does for us," Bruck said. "We don't know yet if the name makes a dolphin picture another dolphin in its head."
For his next round of research, Bruck said, "That's my goal -- show whether the call evokes a representational mental image of that individual."

Charlotte Bobcats vs. Sacramento 1/18/10
Bobcats squeak past a pesky Kings squad at the Cable Box to notch their eighth straight home victory and fifth straight overall. The team is a game over .500 in mid-January. Final Score: 105-103 Boxscore here.
Running Diary Recap:
First half can be summed up simply as: Gerald Wallace.
19 points on 5-9 with 9-9 from the charity stripe. Two blocks, three boards and a steal. Bobcats up by twenty plus points for most of the half. Damn. If Crash isn't an All-Star this season, then the All-Star game is a joke.*
(*Insert Bill Walton Voice for emphasis)
As some of you may have deciphered from my PF trade column yesterday, I'm not a big fan of Tyson Chandler. Why even bring him back? NaGana Diophammed is a nice little Under-The-Radar platoon. No reason to ruin a good thing.
Anybody realize that Paul Westphal is coaching the Kings? What? Were Bill Fitch and Dick Versace booked?
Classic Boris Diaw sequence between 5:30-5:00 in the 2nd quarter:
- Slow on weak side switch, lazily fouls Kevin Martin for an And 1. (Should have clobbered him Anthony Mason-style or at least Kurt Thomas-style)
- Martin misses the freebie, Felton finds Diaw on the perimeter during the resulting fast break: Three Point Swish.
- Boris out position as the Kings push the ball the length of the court, offensive rebound Sacramento.
- Boris replaced by Derrick Brown.
Brown, btw, was spectacular in the first half. 7 points in 6 minutes and two of those came on a rad Everybody Loves Raymond assisted Phi Slamma Jamma.
2nd QTR, Raymond has 8 assists in the first half. Is he winning me over? In reggie language, "methinks he is."
Also early in the second, DJ nails a long two after the ball loops around the rim and finally drops. Steve Martin and DC4THREEEEEE! wax nostalgic about how WarDell never needed these new soft Spalding rims to knock down shots. I get as misty-eyed as Ron Green, Sr. at an Arnold Palmer/Andy Griffith Charity BBQ.
FINAL SECONDS, 2nd QTR, Spencer Hawes with a throwdown putback to send the game into halftime. I finally figured out why I keep thinking "Spencer Hawes" is a professional wrestler:
- a. He looks like some local dude that works dark matches when the WWE tours through the midwest. All he's missing is some "tribal" tattoos** criss-crossing his rhomboids down to his wrists. **BONUS NOTE: I was just informed recently by a good friend that this style of tattoo is affectionately known as a "Turd Jacket" amongst the serious Ink community.
- b. The name "Hawes" sounds a lot like "Hoss" which, of course, is one of Jim Ross's favorite descriptors of large human beings. "Oh my gawd King, that hoss Spencer Hawes just Turd Jacketed Jon Brockman right onto his spine!!!"
3RD QTR, Tyreke Evans at 6'6″ is just unfair. If he and Derrick Rose are the future at PG, then the Bobcats need to unload Augustin right now. Immediately. Take anything for him. Anything. Even a Turd Jacketed Jon Brockman.
3RD QTR, Stephen Jackson a non-factor thus far with 2 minutes to go in the third with four fouls and nine points. Sacramento goes on a 14-0 run. Strangely, for the first time in franchise history, I'm absolutely not in the least bit nervous at this. Bobcats have turned into one of those good teams that'll toy with you at home. I like it!
And just like that, the run is broken up by a MONSTER Derrick Brown MAN-DUNK to take us into the 4th.
Bobcats playing their third game in 72 hours by the way. AND THEY'RE STILL TRAPPING like an obsessed college team making a run into the Sweet Sixteen. Wow. Nice effort.
Oh crap. 7:29 LEFT IN THE GAME and Gerald is down, staring at his ankle. Not good. Andreas Nocioni just pulls a Tully Blanchard by stepping on Crash's heel and then nails a three that cuts the Bobcats lead to ten. Ouch. Then nails another one a minute later to cut it to three. Tyreke cuts it to one and I'm catching up on my nervousness at light speed. How important is Gerald Wallace to this team? You're seeing it right now.
4:30 to go in the fourth, Gerald Wallace back from the locker room and Raymond nails a three. Udrih fires back with a long two–that's later deemed a three. What happened to the 24 point cushion? What's the deal with the King's and massive comebacks?
3:02, Crazy series ending with a Stephen Jackson fast break "Goal-tended" hoop that has Westphal acting like Bobby Heenan on the sidelines (I promise that will be the last 80s wrestling reference in this 2010 NBA game recap). Meanwhile, Dell Curry is insisting that this is the time of the game when Raymond Felton wants the ball in his hands. I'm more than a little scared.
2:00 – 1:12, Jon Brockman screws up Every Which Way But Loose (then again, he did get Turd Jacketed in the spine) culminating in a offensive goal-tend. Raymond comes through with a huge running layup after JAX whiffs on an easy basket and the Cats are up by four.
:24, Tyreke with a sweet sweep to the hoop for his 34th point. What's this guy's ceiling? Durant? Lebron???
FINAL SCORE: 105-103. Raymond came through. I'm going to reserve comment on this. For now.
Enjoy the win Bobcats Fans.

UPDATE: I neglected to give you a bunch of links where you can download the mashups here and others I found. Those links are now included so you can give the artists, DJs and the geeks who support them some love.
This is an hour-long mashup of mashups. What is a mashup? Direct from Wikipedia…
is a song or composition created from the combination of the music from one song with the a cappella from another (also mash up and mash-up). These songs may be considered part of the bastard pop musical genre. "A mash-up is a song created out of pieces of two or more songs, usually by overlaying the vocal track of one song seamlessly over the music track of another…Mash-ups are incredible fun and a fascinating way to reexperience some of your favorite tunes." [2]
In full swing at the start of the 21st century, mash ups have been described positively are "ultimate post-modern pop song[s]" or "'culture jamming in its purest form'"[3] and "display an analytical impulse…we actually hear how these songs resonate with one another, comment upon and affect one another…in a way, the music speaks for itself" [4]. They have also been described negatively as "the logical extension of the sampling fever of the '80s taken to its dumbest extreme". Due to the questionable legal status of mash ups and little chance of profits "there's a real punk rock attitude attached to the movement" [3].
So there you have it 🙂

Can gaining weight during pregnancy provide clues into the cause of autism spectrum disorders?
New research from the University of Utah shows the answer to that question may be yes in some situations. Researchers have uncovered an association between autism spectrum disorders and a small increase in the amount of weight a mother gains during pregnancy. The results of the new study, "Maternal Prenatal Weight Gain and Autism Spectrum Disorders," are published in November edition of the journal Pediatrics.
Previous studies have identified links between women's prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) and pregnancy weight gain to an increased risk for the development of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in children. But in the new study from University of Utah, researchers build on prior research by identifying an association between autism spectrum disorder risk and prenatal weight gain, after accounting for important related factors such as a woman's prepregnancy BMI.
"The risk of autism spectrum disorder associated with a modest yet consistent increase in pregnancy weight gain suggests that pregnancy weight gain may serve as an important marker for autism's underlying gestational etiology," said Deborah A. Bilder, M.D., lead author of the study and an assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Utah. "These findings suggest that weight gain during pregnancy is not the cause of ASD but rather may reflect an underlying process that it shares with autism spectrum disorders, such as abnormal hormone levels or inflammation. …."
This small difference in pregnancy weight gain and the association with ASD was found in two separate study groups. Researchers carried out the study by comparing the cases of 8-year-olds living in Salt Lake, Davis and Utah counties. A group of 128 children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders were compared to a control group of 10,920 children of the same age and gender. Researchers also examined a second sample group of 288 Utah children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders and compared their data with that of unaffected siblings. In both scenarios, pregnancy weight gain patterns obtained from birth certificate records were identified as common factors in mothers who gave birth to children born with autism spectrum disorders. Such a small, but consistent finding suggests that these small changes in pregnancy weight gain and ASD may share the same underlying cause. The mother's BMI at the onset of pregnancy was not linked to ASD in either study group.
ASD data utilized for this study were taken from the Utah Registry of Autism and Developmental Disabilities, a Utah Department of Health (UDOH) registry. "Utilizing this database to study possible associations that may shed light on the causes of Autism Spectrum Disorder is essential," said Harper Randall, M.D., medical director at the Division of Family Health and Preparedness at UDOH. "
"The findings in this study are important because they provide clues to what may increase the risk of having an autism spectrum disorder and provide a specific direction for researchers to pursue as they search for the causes for autism spectrum disorders," said Bilder. "Doctors have known for a long time that proper nutrition is essential to a healthy pregnancy. Pregnant women should not change their diet based on these results. Rather, this study provides one more piece for the autism puzzle that researchers are exploring."
Autism spectrum disorders are neurobehavioral disorders manifested by a range of impaired social interactions, abnormal language development, and stereotypic behavior and interests. According to the most recent statistics from the Utah Department of Health, estimates show that 1 in 63 Utah children have an autism spectrum disorder. Another study by the CDC released in 2012 suggests the risk may be even higher, estimating Utah's rate at one in 47. Autism spectrum disorder is no longer considered a rare disorder. It is now recognized in 1 to 2 percent of our population. "This calls for further investigation of its underlying etiology as a public health concern," said Bilder.

Beyond travel, we're also big music fans here at Gadling; largely because music is a great way to get to know a place. This month happens to be Public Radio Music Month and we're teaming up with NPR to bring you exclusive interviews from NPR music specialists around the country. We'll be learning about local music culture and up and coming new regional artists, so be sure to follow along all month.
You might know Seattle for its grunge, alternative and indie scenes – this is after all the home of the Experience Music Project – but as Sean MacLean tells us, if you haven't been paying attention to the classical music of the region, you're missing out.
Name: Sean MacLean
Member station: Classical King FM 98.1
Regular Show/Contribution Beat: Northwest Focus, weeknights 8-10 p.m., with live musicians Friday nights at 8. Afternoon/evening host Monday – Friday 4-10 p.m.
1. When people think of music in Seattle, what do they think of?
Options! The Early Music, jazz, rock, and film scoring cutting edge, but also Benaroya Hall, home of Seattle Symphony, where you can sip outstanding Washington State Syrahs while enjoying the view from the giant windows that give out onto beautiful Elliott Bay, then go into the splendid acoustics of the floating hall and have your heart blown wide by timeless music.
2. How do you help curate that musical scene?
Through "Northwest Focus": since living in Seattle means figuring out what NOT to see that night, we pick the most engaging events to link at our website, and give our listeners a chance to meet local classical musicians on "Northwest Focus LIVE" on Friday nights at 8. The shows are archived and YouTube videos are shared. The groups get exposure, and our audience is enriched. We get a lot of feedback about the quality of the music scene here.
3. How has that scene evolved over the last few decades?
Early Music Mecca! Increase in choral groups! More performances of classical music in crossover venues.
4. What would you say is the most unique thing about the Seattle music scene?
People move here for the healthy lifestyle and surrounding natural beauty. I think you can hear the "health" in their playing. Neither sincerity of interpretation, nor cooperation between musical presenters is not considered naïve. Ironic detachment is not cool here, as it is in many cities. Generosity of spirit is the vibe.
5. What are three new up and coming bands on your local scene right now and what makes them distinct?
In the early music scene, Stephen Stubbs is doing amazing productions with Pacific Musicworks. Then there is Whim Whim who dance to choral music. Amazing. Which brings up The Esoterics, led by Eric Banks, who wrote the music. I don't know how he ever gets any sleep, with the composing, research, and performance.
6. For a Gadling playlist, what are your favorite tracks?
"Assez Vif" – Seattle Marimba Quartet
"Es ist ein Ros entsprungen (arr. J. Sandstrom)" – Dale Warland Singers
"F. Couperin: Les baricades Mystérieuses" – Les baricades Mystérieuses – arranged by Göran Söllscher
"Gloria: IX. Cum Sancto Spiritu" – Couperin, Francois, Göran Söllscher
"Jardim Abandonado" – Sergio and Odair Assad
"The Great "O" Antiphons – O Radix Jesse ("O Root of Jesse")" – Opus 7 Vocal Ensemble

Hi guys,
I am an Italian student, and I have just finished a bachelor degree in business management.
I found this forum through a google search; at the moment, I am really unsure (or, rather, quite sure about not) proceeding with a Master's degree in business (should you be interested, I can tell you more about the reasons), in spite of having been accepted in a top-tier business school in Europe.
More to the point, I am (or at least, was in high school) good at Maths and Physics, and I am seriously considering to enrol into an engineering programme at ETH Zurich the next academic year (I will be 23 by then), which is why I registered here.
What I would really like to know are some insider perspectives about current trends in engineering education, its evaluation in the professional world, any disadvantages that engineers typically experience during their careers, as well as a recommendation about whether or not I should bother with this (5 year) education at all. I can say that I am strongly motivated for this, as business was very much a diversion from my aptitude (I do enjoy Mathematics, sequential day-to-day learning, and understanding the natural world, and I do believe that one cannot create economic or societal value only by 'managing' things), but I might be unaware of some difficulties that lie along the road.
On the other hand, should you have any questions about business education, feel free to ask. I cannot say that I am very acquainted with how business school graduates perform in the professional world, having had only jobs in my hometown (in very small companies), but at least academically I give you an inside perspective.
I hope to enjoy my stay on this forum!
