The ferry concept presented by the global classification company DNV GL covers both the passenger, car and truck traffic between Cuxhaven and Brunsbuttel with zero-emission fuel alternatives as well as with the optimal infrastructure for the Elbe river traffic in the region.
Clean mobility with hydrogen
in addition to the gas engine operated with the environmentally friendly and cheap alternative of liquefied natural gas (LNG), the experts from DNV GL also analyses the the cleanest and most sustainable option available today: hydrogen."Using excess energy from near-by wind farms to generate liquid hydrogen, it would be used to power a fuel cell for propulsion. Peak power is provided by an additional battery system", says Fridtjof Rohde, who designs ships at DNV GL.
Hourly service with three ferries
DNV GL's concept is custom-tailored for the annual transport of 300,000 trucks, 50,000 lorries, and 650,000 passengers. To offer hourly departures, the vessels would be needed for the new Cux-Bru ferry service. Running at 15 knots (28 km/h), the crossing will take 75 minutes. In addition, the Steubenhöft terminal and quay will be relocated to the industrial area located 4.5 km away. Built as a double-ended ferry, harbour time would be limited to 15 minutes for loading and unloading.
Response to new emissions limits
As of 1 January 2015, the stricter emissions regulations of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will apply for maritime emission control areas. For example, the sulfur content of marine emissions limited currently to 1 per cent will be reduced to 0.1 per cent.Affected by these regulations will also be the shipping in the North Sea and Baltic Sea. The ferry concept of DNV GL offers three different solutions to respond to the impending reduction of the emissions cap.

Throughout our lives we have an opportunity to forgive people. The gift of forgiving allows for a huge opportunity to grow the spirit. What is forgiveness? How do you go about forgiving? What happens when you actually go ahead and forgive? Forgiving requires a courageous choice. The courageous choice is whether you are willing to consent to this healing.
In today's business world, courage has a much deeper meaning and a more relevant role for women such as the family-career balancing act, difficulty with confrontation, reentering the workplace, political finesse, undermining other women and releasing the way people judge women who stand in their "originality."

If you've ever been to the ocean, you know that you can float in the salty water much easier than you can in pool water.
This simple floating egg experiment is perfect for explaining this phenomenon to kids.
It would be a fun activity to go along with making a rubber egg.
In this activity you will be making an egg float in salt water.
Learn how to remove the salt from the water in this DIY solar still for water activity.
Float Egg Experiment
Materials Needed:
- 1 Raw Egg
- Tap Water
- Clear Container (big enough to float an egg)
- Table Salt
- Teaspoon
To begin your egg experiment, partially fill your container with tap water.
Hand your child the egg and ask them to predict whether the egg will float or sink.
Carefully place the egg in the water. (A fresh egg will sink; older eggs may float a bit.)
If your child has been to the ocean, this is the perfect time to discuss how much easier it is to float in the salty water.
Ask your child to predict how much salt you will need to add to the water to get the egg to float.
Now remove the egg from the tap water and stir in one teaspoon of salt.
Replace the egg and observe what happens.
If they egg still sinks, repeat the process. (It took 3 teaspoons of salt to get our egg to float.)
Why does the floating egg experiment work?
The egg sank in the fresh water and floated in the salt water because of density.
The more salt you add to the water, the more mass you add to it, making the salt water denser. Because the salt water is saturated with salt particles it is better able to hold the egg up.
- Allow your child to experiment with different liquids. Will the egg float in sugar water or seltzer water?
- What other objects can you get to float in the salt water?
I'm looking forward to the next time I can test out my floating abilities in the ocean.
Until then, this simple floating egg experiment is a great way to introduce density to the kids.

Gyratory Compaction is said to be one of the most efficient methods of laboratory compaction for assessing the manufacture and compatibility of test specimens. During the process of compaction, the height of the specimen is measured automatically and both the void content and the density of the mixture are calculated. During this test, the tester can decide whether he is going to compact for a particular number of gyrations or until a certain void content or target density of the mixture is achieved.
The efficiency of a gyratory compactor can be determined on the basis of its ease of usage and build quality. JP Scientific Equipments offers the B041 model of gyratory compactor which has a number of features, including an extremely rigid steel frame which ensures excellent angle control. The load is applied via an electro-pneumatic cylinder and is controlled by a precision pressure regulator. The height is measured using a bilinear transducer. It has electronic control with a fancy touch screen display and an unlimited memory storage which includes 1 SD card and 2 USB ports. It establishes a direct connection to internet and intranet and immediate diagnostic analyses of potentially problematic situations are carried out.
To enjoy accurate and precise laboratory results, you need the right equipment. With JP Scientific Equipments you never have to worry about the accuracy of results.

ISOLATED STORMS: A stray thunderstorm or two will be possible across the area as a line of thunderstorms struggles to form in the far eastern sections of the Commonwealth. There is a very low severe weather threat for far southern Lancaster and York counties as storms attempt to develop in the late afternoon. The overall chance is very low, with any concern being gusty winds and small hail. The thunderstorm threat subsides heading into the late evening ahead of more widespread activity heading into Friday. Morning lows near 60-degrees will be the norm.
FINISHING THE WORK WEEK: Another humid start heads our way Friday with partly-to-mostly cloudy skies. Afternoon temperatures in the mid-to-upper 70s move into the area as thunderstorms are more likely across the area Friday afternoon and evening. A few of these could be severe, with gusty winds and small hail the main concerns, along with flash flooding and lightning. A very low tornado threat exists as well.
THE WEEKEND AND BEYOND: We keep rain chances heading into the weekend. A chance for off-and-on showers continues Saturday with highs near 70-degrees. Sunday shapes up slightly cooler with a little more sunshine, highs in the mid-to-upper 60s before warming up back into the 70s with thunderstorm chances by the middle part of next week.

DENVER — The case before the court on Tuesday grappled with issues of equal rights, religious objections to same-sex marriage and wedding cake.
At issue was whether Jack Phillips, a Colorado bakery owner, had broken state antidiscrimination laws when he refused to make a cake for a gay couple's wedding reception, citing his religious beliefs. With same-sex marriage now legal everywhere nationally in the wake of the United States Supreme Court ruling in June, his case is being closely watched as a test of the boundary between personal religious objections and legal discrimination.
A lawyer for Mr. Phillips, who is an evangelical Protestant, argued before the Colorado Court of Appeals that his refusal to make the cake was no different from a baker's rejecting a customer's request for a cake frosted with an image of the Confederate flag. But lawyers for the gay couple said the refusal was more akin to a bus company turning away a female passenger, or a hospital refusing to treat a gay couple's child.
"This case is simply not about cake," said Ria Mar, a staff lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, which represented the couple, Charlie Craig and David Mullins. "Businesses open to the public must be open to all, on the same terms."
Similar debates are echoing across the country as legal skirmishes over same-sex marriage shift to county clerks who refuse to perform same-sex vows and other instances of resistance. States are wrestling with whether they can or should grant legal protections to business owners, religious groups or others who object to same-sex weddings.
Gov. Jay Nixon of Missouri signed an executive order on Tuesday ordering state agencies to comply with the Supreme Court's marriage decision, and telling local governments they also had to follow the court's ruling. At least one county in Missouri has refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, according to Promo, an advocacy group in Missouri for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people that has been tracking activity in counties throughout the state.
"Let me be clear: The court's decision is now the law of the land, and it will be implemented," Mr. Nixon, a Democrat, said in a statement.
But next door in Kansas, Gov. Sam Brownback issued an executive order on Tuesday explicitly protecting clergy members and religious organizations opposed to performing same-sex weddings or recognizing those unions.
"We have a duty to govern and to govern in accordance with the Constitution as it has been determined by the Supreme Court decision," Mr. Brownback, a Republican, said in a statement. "We also recognize that religious liberty is at the heart of who we are as Kansans and Americans, and should be protected."
In Colorado, the three appeals judges weighing the Phillips case examined those issues with hypothetical questions involving chocolate chip cookies, chocolate cake and sheet cakes.
They asked: Is cake making really an act of expression protected by the First Amendment, or should bakeries have to serve all customers equally? What if a gay couple had asked for a product that required little artistic expression, like chocolate chip cookies? And if bakeries, wedding photographers or musicians could refuse to serve same-sex weddings, could a hotel deny a room to a same-sex couple on their honeymoon?
The case began in July 2012 when the couple visited the Masterpiece Cakeshop in Lakewood, Colo., to buy a cake for a local party to celebrate their wedding in Massachusetts (same-sex marriages were legal there, but not in Colorado at the time). Mr. Phillips declined, saying he would make other treats, but not a wedding cake. The couple complained to the state, drawing national attention and support from advocacy groups on both sides of the issue.
The Colorado Civil Rights Commission ruled last year that Mr. Phillips's refusal had violated state antidiscrimination laws.
On Tuesday, his lawyer, Jeremy Tedesco, pointed out in court that Mr. Phillips had also refused to make Halloween cakes, or those with anti-American or racist themes. Mr. Tedesco said the case was not about discriminating against a gay couple, but about a business owner being compelled to "use your artistic expression to create, celebrate something that offends your beliefs."
"He doesn't want to create cakes that contain written messages or symbols that are offensive to him or celebrate something that's offensive to him," said Mr. Tedesco, who is a lawyer with the conservative Christian legal group Alliance Defending Freedom.
But Ms. Mar, the A.C.L.U. lawyer, said that Colorado's laws required businesses, bakeries included, to treat their customers equally.
"Mr. Phillips is free to advocate and teach his beliefs," she said. "But when he opens a business that is open to the public, he is not free to use those beliefs to discriminate."

Jaws to Resurface on Nintendo This Fall
For 3D monster shark fans, this fall is going to be an unprecedented shark-a-palooza. Not only are we getting Shark Night 3D and Bait 3D in the theaters this September, but Majesco Entertainment announced that they will be releasing Jaws: Ultimate Predator this fall for both the Nintendo 3DS and Wii systems. Majesco previously released Jaws Unleashed back in 2006 and with the new game designed for play on the 3DS, we will finally have a Jaws console game that's in 3D.
According to Majesco's press release, Ultimate Predator takes place 35 years after the original Jaws movie. Like Unleashed, the new game will have you playing as the monster shark, protecting your turf from both humans and other ocean predators. The game's environments will include Hawaii, the Great Barrier Reef, and Amity Island itself. Whether this game will refer to any of the Jaws movie sequels or the previous Unleashed game has yet to be determined.
Ultimate Predator will be the first Jaws game to appear on a Nintendo console in almost a decade. The last two Jaws games for the Nintendo consoles were Jaws for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1987, which was based on Jaws: The Revenge, and the Universal Studios Theme Parks Adventure game for the GameCube in 2001, which featured a Jaws mini-game.
Since Unleashed was intended to capitalize on the 30th anniversary of Jaws and the release of a special edition Jaws DVD, I'm thinking that Ultimate Predator is likewise expected to capitalize on the upcoming Blu-ray release of Jaws. However, until a release date for the Jaws Blu-ray is confirmed, this is just speculation on my part.
I'm hoping that this new Jaws game will take full advantage of the unique controls on both the 3DS and Wii, and that it will be a better game than its predecessor. Come to think of it, I'm surprised that a Jaws game didn't appear on the Wii sooner, since its Endless Ocean games proved that the Wii is well suited for a deep sea adventure. As long as Majesco provides a wide enough variety in game controls, locations, missions, enemies and an all-you-can-eat buffet of humans, then I think that Jaws: Ultimate Predator will be engaging enough for any sharksploitation junkie.

While Beijing staged the Olympics and Shanghai the World Expo, it is now the turn of this booming southern metropolis to showcase itself to the world.
The Asian Games are the biggest multi-sports extravaganza after the Olympics and Guangzhou is hoping the November 12-27 spectacle will help transform it into one of Asia's elite cities.
"The Guangzhou Asian Games will help drive the development of Guangzhou and it will bring new opportunities and inject new vigour into China's economy," executive deputy secretary general of the Guangzhou Organising Committee Xu Ruisheng said.
"A successful and amazing Asian Games is a platform to show off Guangzhou's comprehensive strength and improve its international reputation." China is also using the event as a springboard to the 2012 London Olympics, after its breakthrough in Beijing where it toppled the United States from the top of the medal table for the first time.
"We are using the Asian Games as a preparation for the 2012 Olympics, to discover our new stars and to fight for the most gold medals," Chinese Olympic Committee vice president Xiao Tian said.
The country's state media has been stirring up excitement with regular updates on Team China, a day-by-day countdown on China Central Television and coverage of the nationwide Asiad torch relay. More than 10,000 athletes from 45 countries and regions will compete for 476 gold medals in Guangzhou, which sits in the Pearl River Delta, the hub of China's huge export-oriented "workshop of the world".
It will be the biggest Asiad ever with a television audience of billions, watching dozens of Olympic champions as well as many athletes with little hope of success.
China, Japan and South Korea are the traditional Asian sporting powerhouses. They will be competing with the likes of war-torn Afghanistan and Iraq, and minnows such as Bhutan and Timor-Leste.
Just as Beijing did before the 2008 Olympics, Guangzhou has poured billions of dollars into infrastructure projects - a new rail station, a gleaming trade centre, subway lines, housing projects, highways and bridges.
Construction on 58 renovated sporting venues and 12 brand-new facilities were finished by the end of September, in stark contrast to the last-minute chaos in rival superpower India last month for the Commonwealth Games.
Security is a major focus of the event, with USD 27 million spent beefing up the police presence and employing 800,000 security guards and volunteers to help patrol the Games. Hundreds of thousands of surveillance cameras are in place across the city, the China Daily said, including more than 12,000 in and around Games' venues.
More than 600 people have been arrested in the lead up, while more than one million vehicles and boats and three million people entering Guangzhou have been searched.
"Security is our top concern and our top responsibility for the success of the Games," said Gu Shiyang, vice secretary general of the Guangzhou Organising Committee.
"We are fully aware of the threats from outside the country and also the risks within the city or within the territory. We have made great efforts to make our city safe, to make our Games safe."
Authorities have implemented a number of strict measures to ensure the success of the Games, including traffic restrictions that aim to take half of the city's vehicles off the roads to improve air quality.
China set for Asian Games extravaganza
While Beijing staged the Olympics and Shanghai the World Expo, it is now the turn of this booming southern metropolis to showcase itself to the world.

What's going on Sunday? (La Femme, Tinariwen, Burnt Ones, Fat White Family, Trouser Press 40th Anniversary & more)
La Femme @ BV SXSW day party (more by Amanda Hatfield)
For all of tonight's shows, and tomorrow's, check out our NYC concert calendar.
La Femme, Regal Degal, Future Punx, DJBP @ Glasslands
The title of Parisian band La Femme's debut album, Psycho Tropical Berlin, is a pretty good summation of what to expect: crazed psychedelic pop with a krautrock/coldwave backbone and an affinity for surf rock. Add Ye-Ye enthusiasm and smoky Gainsbourg cool and you've got a sound magnifique. They genuinely wowed us at SXSW and we're presenting tonight's sold-out show. Local openers Future Punx and Regal Degal are worth catching too, and BV's Bill Pearis is on DJ duty between sets. See ya there.
Tinariwen, The Melodic @ Brooklyn Bowl
Malian band Tinariwen bring their exotic sounds to NYC twice this week with shows at Brooklyn Bowl tonight and tomorrow.
Talib Kweli, Phony Ppl, YC The Cynic @ The Marlin Room at Webster Hall
To celebrate the late, great J Dilla, tonight the Marlin Room at Webster Hall hosts the inaugural "NY Loves Dilla" concert with veteran NYC rapper Talib Kweli and a couple of his local pals.
Fat White Family, Las Rosas, Baked, Flame Proof Moth @ Shea Stadium
The UK's sleezy, depraved rock band have hit NYC after leaving their stink on Austin at SXSW. They really are a "must see live" band (warning: chances of onstage nudity are high), and this is your last of three chances here to do so to do so.
Burnt Ones, Raw McCartney, Rips, Stay At Home Dads @ Death by Audio
San Francisco's Burnt Ones are flying a freak flag particular to that part of the country — one that is scuzzy and prolific. After numerous singles, EPs and LPs on a variety of imprints — including Burger — the band have landed at John Dwyer's Castle Face Records who will release their third full-length, Gift, this week.
The Planets, Sic F*ucks, Pin Ups @ Bowery Electric
Seminal rock n' roll zine The Trouser Press celebrates their 40th anniversary with this night featuring "bands, booze, tunes, stories, and souvenirs." Fouding editor Ira Robbins says it will be a "private party that's open to the public," as much a reunion and celebration of a big anniversary…that also happens to have some bands relevant to what Trouser Press was all about.
Genesis P-Orridge, JG Thirlwell @ Rough Trade
The Throbbing Gristle/Psychic TV frontperson has a new photo book out and is celebrating with this free in-store conversation with Foetus frontman JG Thirlwell. Genesis will be signing copies of the book as well.
The xx @ Park Avenue Armory
The xx continue their run of 25 shows at the Park Avenue Armory which run through March 29. Each show is extremely intimate (holds 40 people) and very sold out.
Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band, Dex Romweber Duo @ Mercury Lounge
Rockabilly eccentric Dexter Romweber is best known as one half of Flat Duo Jets, but plays tonight under his own name. He's the real deal.
Rough Francis, Thrill Sergents, Folding Legs @ The Grand Victory
Led by the three sons of Bobby Hackney of legendary protopunk band Death, Rough Francis just released Maximum Soul Power, which was more than a little influenced by their father's band, giving the album a real '70s-era punk vibe.
New Bums, Metal Mountains, Zachary Cale @ Baby's All Right
New Bums is a duo featuring Ben from Six Organs of Admittance and Donovan from Skygreen Leopards. Their new album just came out on Drag City.
Thou, Anicon, Vorde, Skelptarsis @ Saint Vitus
Sludge metal bashers Thou will release their newest album, Heathen, this week (listen), and ahead of that they've got tonight's Saint Vitus show, which follows yesterday's ABC No Rio matinee.
Cut Copy (DJ), Turkish Prison, Alex English @ Verboten
Cut Copy just wrapped up two big sold-out Terminal 5 shows, but the Australians aren't leaving NYC just yet. Head to new Williamsburg dance club Verboten tonight to see what tracks they'll be spinning.
Ice Balloons, Rob Bryn, The Jist, DJ PreSkool @ Union Pool (FREE)
NYC's Ice Balloons is the new-ish project from TV on the Radio's Kyp Malone, Wild Yaks' Rob Bryn, and others, who make freaky, out-there synth punk. Catch them for FREE tonight.
Comedy Night @ Knitting Factory
Big league comedy talent (Chris Rock, Louis CK, etc) show up regularly (and unannounced) for Hannibal's very popular free comedy show at Knitting Factory's front bar. Get there early.
For laughs, check out the NYC Comedy calendar too.

M5 reopens after 'harrowing' crash which killed four people
Police have reopened the M5 after a "horrific" crash on the motorway killed four people over the weekend.
A woman and two children remain in hospital with life-threatening injuries after a lorry collided with oncoming traffic between junctions 16 and 14.
The motorway was closed for the whole of Sunday while investigations were carried out, and one northbound lane still remains closed.
Police say the work has been "painstaking".
The lorry driver was taken to hospital to be treated for minor injuries and has been interviewed under caution.

Today I plan to go and hide out at my mother's place and read. It's the only way I can get some peace today. I had written more paragraphs about this but have deleted. It was just one big boring whinge. So I'll keep this short but I did want to mention the Budget Rent a Car scam they tried on me at Perth Airport. I returned the car, but it's a long way where you park it to where you hand over the keys. So they don't go and check it, and sign off on the condition report. This works in their favour. When I picked the car up in Perth, I saw a dent that the guy hadn't put on the outgoing CR. I pointed it out and he circled that area on the form. Two nights after I'm back in Melbourne I get an intimidating and rude text message about me filling out an accident report immediately otherwise I'd be charged for the full amount of repairs.
So I email the address in the text:
- Check-out qcd is completed by Budget staff when the vehicle is parked for the booking.
- Customer receives a copy to check against the vehicle themselves & must advise us promptly if there is any differences.
- Receiving the check-out qcd shows that vehicle checks are done by Budget & if a check-out is done, then its reasonable to expect that a check-in will be done as well.
- All customers know if check-in was done with them or if they just returned the keys before leaving.
- Budget does the check-in asap however exact time depends on many factors.
- Locations are predominantly for collections & returned vehicles are dealt with after bookings.
- Staff receive the check-in qcd & compare it with the check-out qcd.
- If there is new damage, the rental Excess (or lesser estimate) is charged for each & Budget does have desk signs to highlight this for customers.
- Check-out & check-in may not be done immediately or with the customer at some locations, due to the property owners restrictions* &/or staff availability#.
- Customers choose their collection & return locations & can change a return to be at an open Budget office if they prefer the check-in is done while they are present.
- The rental period in t&c ends on the day the vehicle returns to Budget.
- There is no time stipulated due to */# which may cause a check-in delay.
- Due date & time on the rental agreement document are only a guide & for Budget overdue vehicle reports.
- All charges are debited
immediately (per 11.1 & 11.5) & auditing & any adjustments
(per 11.2) are done as soon as possible & advised to the customer
wherever possible.
With regard to the links, I have not read them. The internet is full of half-stories & many customers just don't bother to read their Terms & Conditions so when they do get charged for something, quite legitimately, they go online without checking it out properly, or they tell only the part they want everyone to hear.
According to our records, you recently rented a vehicle with Budget.
As part of our ongoing commitment to customer service, we would greatly value your feedback on your experience. This quick survey should take no longer than 2 minutes of your time.

5 habits related to health that will change your life:Our health is very important to us. My today's article is about 5 habits related to health that will change your life. Being healthy is the greatest pleasure. It has also been said that healthy body is the biggest wealth. Only one person is physically and mentally healthy, he can enjoy his whole life. A healthy mind remains in a healthy body.
Therefore, physical health is also mandatory for mental health. A famous saint has said that this body is the best means of religion. If we believe in religion and call ourselves religious, then it is our first duty to keep our body healthy. If the body is not healthy then life becomes weight. So simple life and healthy body enhances our confidence level and makes us better.
5 Habits related to
health that will
change your life
Daily Exercise
Exercise enhances physical strength, heals health. A man can earn money but he can not get health from that money. By exercising, the body becomes light and nimble. Resistant capacity increases and digestion power is strong. The brain develops because a healthy brain can only be in a healthy body. There are lots of exercises to do exercising in which light running exercise exercising jogging kabaddi etc. Daily exercise is beneficial for the body. Exercise should never exceed your power. After experiencing exhaustion, the exercise should be stopped.
Healthy Breakfast
A Healthy Breakfast is one of the important things. Immediately after rising in the morning, we need a healthy food lane. Your morning breakfast gives you all the energy you need to do the morning work and all the day's work. In the morning breakfast, you can include fruits, curd and eggs.
Avoid Sugar
Try to avoid overuse of sugar. Sugar should use us in some quantities. At present, one person consumes an average of 135 pounds of sugar per year. But 15 years ago, it was a small amount of 109 pounds. Sugar can cause cancer, obesity, heart disease and diabetes, which are some common diseases.
Take Sufficient Rest
Good sleep is good for our whole health. Shakespeare has considered sleep as the greatest nutrition in life. We all know that sleep and comfort is necessary to keep body, mind and soul healthy, but how many lucky people who sleep all night? This is the characteristic of the human body which completes the body fatigue of the day in the night's sleep. Those who do not sleep in the night, they must meet their sleep in some way in the day.
Keep Body Hydrate
Water is life and there are many other benefits in its human life. Drink water, it shines the skin, keeps moisture in it. We can survive without food for some time, but it is impossible to survive without water. There are many health benefits of water. Some people have a habit that they do not drink enough water. Only one or two glasses of water are sufficient for them. But drinking water less often causes many problems. By drinking the right amount of water, you get healthy skin. Regular and energetic quantity of water helps to achieve beautiful hair and healthy heart too.
So hopefully you will be motivated to live a healthy life by incorporating all these habits into your daily routine. I hope that I will not forget to share this article"5 habits related to health that will change your life". With similar health information to B Healthy Thank you.

Reading Time: 7 minutes This whole coronavirus thing is making us a bit tired and anxious, and we're sure you're feeling the same. We've collated some advice and information for anyone who has travel planned, or might be planning on travelling, over the next few months.
Reading Time: 5 minutes You can't go to Chiang Mai in Thailand and not have a massage – the city is famous for them. But having a Thai massage in a prison will do more than ease your own aches and pains. Here's why.
Reading Time: 5 minutes Travellers are only just starting to discover the tiny village of Maly Turysh, where they can experience what life in the community is really like.
Reading Time: 6 minutes Just in time for International Women's Day, we're bringing you some brand new Women's Expeditions.
Reading Time: 4 minutes Your friends and family might think you're crazy for wanting to travel to Pakistan, but you're not alone: plenty of women are doing it. Come prepared, and the country will welcome you with open arms.
Reading Time: 8 minutes Seeing female porters in Nepal isn't really the norm; the trekking industry here is very much male-dominated. Women are generally considered to be not strong enough, not fast enough. But these women look pretty strong to me.

Reading Time: 6 minutes Australia is an amazing country. Here are seven reasons to add Intrepid's Sydney to Brisbane adventure to your Down Under diary.
Reading Time: 6 minutes In many ways, travelling in Australia is akin to travelling to more than one part of the world at once. So rather than umming and ahhing about your next holiday to one or two countries, here's how you can reap the rewards of multiple countries by visiting just one: Australia.
Reading Time: 5 minutes If you've spent a few nights on the Gold Coast and think you've 'done' Queensland, I'm here to tell you that you haven't.
Reading Time: 4 minutes If trekking's not your bag, you prefer a day walk over a multi-day hike, or you want to up the exercise ante on your Inca adventure, there are so many other active adventures to be had in Peru.
Reading Time: 4 minutes Cycling Morocco was not only an exhilarating physical adventure, it was the best way to truly experience the gorgeous geography and diverse cultural regions of this country in a way that is still somewhat a secret.
Reading Time: 6 minutes Although February 14 has become synonymous with Hallmark in many parts of the world, not every culture chooses to declare their love via a romantic greeting card or overpriced rose…

If there's one reason that can be said about why EA's Star Wars Battlefront II isn't as good as its predecessor, it's because the game falls victim to its own restrictions and harsh padding. Star Wars Battlefront II is a visually beautiful game but is plagued by some very confusing design choices and gameplay issues that overshadow its gorgeous environments, sound design, and cool fan service. Fighting across the different eras of the Star Wars universe is always fun and exciting, especially when a lot of detail goes into making every aspect of the battles feel as authentic as possible. However, not even the power of The Force can save Battlefront 2 from a terrible progression system and unnecessary constraints that diminish the fun times in a galaxy far, far away.
The biggest addition to EA and DICE's sequel to Star Wars Battlefront is the single-player campaign, which focuses on Inferno Squad commander Iden Versio, voiced by actress Janina Gavankar. The story takes place during the events immediately following the destruction of the second Death Star during Return of the Jedi, and continues right up to the Battle of Jakku before the events of The Force Awakens. While Janina's performance as Iden Versio is great, the overall events of the story feel ill-paced and left on a harshly defined cliff-hanger ending.
The campaign will only take players about four hours to complete, a lot is squeezed into the story in an attempt to make players feel connected to a new Star Wars character, while also giving to a few fan-service moments to the Star Wars faithful. Ultimately, while we will have to wait for the inevitable conclusion from some free downloadable content, the single-player campaign will only provide a short distraction from Battlefront 2's other game modes.
Outside of the single-player story, Battlefront 2 once again allows you to take on A.I enemies in an Arcade mode, similar to the short missions in the previous game. While these can be done either solo or through co-op multiplayer, the arcade missions are short and disappointing with very little rewards for completing all of them. You have a series of Battle Scenarios based on Star Wars historical battles for both the Light and Dark side, with different troopers, heroes, and villains that you can control.
However, these missions end up being short one-off challenges with little to no reward. A frustrating part of this is due to the confusing daily restriction placed on earning credits from any arcade mode after completing a few missions. It's unneeded and forces players to go into other game modes to earn precious credits.
Multiplayer is the main attraction of Star Wars Battlefront II, and like its predecessor offers the biggest battles and most excitement over all other game modes. You have 20 vs. 20 matches based on iconic Star Wars battles, as well as smaller 8 vs. 8 and 4 vs. 4 matches with Star Wars heroes and villains. But what weighs down the entire experience online is Star Wars Battlefront II's Star Card progression system, which is both horrible and sometimes outrageous. You gain star cards that improve passive abilities and new skills from opening Crates that are earned or purchased in-game, which you can use to customize all of your units, as well as playable heroes and villains.
Boosting up the level of Star Cards can be tiresome, and an often unfair, process because of the randomness of crates and if you didn't preorder the Ultimate Edition of Star Wars Battlefront II. This leaves a huge gap in skill and gives an immediate advantage to some players online, leaving everyone else playing the game organically in an unfair compromised position.
All of this is made even worse when you consider the astronomical costs for unlocking anything in Star Wars Battlefront II. Unlocking new heroes and weapon upgrades are locked behind a huge wall of credits needed to earn them. Classic characters like Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader take a whopping 15,000 credits to unlock while completing matches online and offline will only earn you a meager 100- 200 credits per match.
Even more disturbing is being able to play as Iden Versio from the campaign in multiplayer, which also requires spending credits rather than unlocking her by completing the short campaign. While these decisions may have been motivated by having players earn rewards in Star Wars Battlefront II by playing for a long period of time, it instead creates a huge wall that makes unlocking anything a near impossible task. It's not fun and does more harm than good to the overall experience both online and offline.
Star Wars Battlefront II has a lot more content to offer than its predecessor, but also comes with a cluster of new problems. The Star Card progression system is horrible and needs to be adjusted in future patches, or outright changed at its core. The story mode is a welcome addition that many have wanted since the first game, but its pacing and terrible ending can't be outdone with its otherwise great visuals and phenomenal sound design. Star Wars fans will still enjoy partaking in many battles online, but the huge advantage given to some players with preorder bonuses and upgrade abilities will cause many to be incredibly frustrated in most matches. Unfortunate as it may be, The Force is not strong with this one.
This review was based on a digital review code for Star Wars Battlefront II for the PlayStation 4, provided by Electronic Arts.

European Border stores reveal growth opportunities
2nd August 2017
Europe's border shopping business remains under-exploited, according to a newly completed research report by Counter Intelligence Retail (CiR). The sub-channel has a much smaller share of the duty free and travel retail (DF&TR) pie in Europe compared to other key regions such as the Americas and Asia Pacific, but there are several opportunities to change this.
Exclusive research from travel retail analyst, research and category expert, completed in June 2017 shows that the vast majority of European border stores visitors go on to make a purchase (87%) which is positive news.
However, the report – entitled European Border Store 2017 – reveals that conversion rates for some categories could be much higher, suggesting that those 87% of shoppers could be taking home a bigger basket than they do today. The conversion rates range from as high as 75% for alcohol, the most visited and purchased category, to as low as 28% for one of the other five product categories analysed.
Furthermore, the border sub-channel – often regarded as purely price-driven – appears to have room for trading up. Two in five shoppers purchased a more premium product compared to what they would normally buy at home, with two specific nationalities significantly more likely to do so, based on the responses.
Garry Stasiulevicuis, President, Counter Intelligence Retail, comments: "The European border business is changing and the stores are improving. Our latest research shows that 73% of store visitors rate their overall experience as 'good' – and while price is the key driver, non-regular brands now make up close to half of purchases, which shows a willingness to experiment, helped by in-store promotions."
Millennials have a higher tendency towards non-regular brands than average, and impulse purchasing is greatest for confectionery and lowest for tobacco and jewellery/watches across all shoppers.
The new report goes into detail on the every aspect of European border store shopping, clearly identifying the trends and offering insights and recommendations based on the research findings.
Selected elements of the report include:
- identifying shopper types by demography and nationality
- the store experience and perception drivers
- category footfall and purchasing
- pre-trip research planning
- staff interaction and influence
- non-buyer profiles and visiting barriers
- detailed category breakdowns
Available now, this report offers significant potential for retailers and brands, priced at £5,000 (GBP). It joins the Asia Border Stores and American Border Stores reports, also published in 2017 and all available now.
