Nanoscience: A detailed look inside a microchip
March 16, 2017
A technique that can create high-resolution, three-dimensional images of integrated circuits (computer chips) of unknown design is demonstrated in a paper published in this week's Nature.
Modern nanoelectronics have advanced to a point at which it is no longer possible to image entire devices non-destructively because of the small size of their features and the complex three-dimensional nature of the chips. This has meant that there is a lack of feedback between design and manufacturing processes, which can hamper quality control during production, shipment and use.
Using an imaging technique called ptychographic X-ray computed tomography (PXCT), Mirko Holler and colleagues imaged a detector readout chip for which the authors knew the design. They demonstrated that the three-dimensional images they produced via this process matched the designs for the chip. Having validated the technique, they then imaged a commercially available processor chip. Although the authors had limited information on the design of the chip before PXCT, the resolution of the technique allowed them to see the finest circuit structures.
The authors suggest that this technique could enable the optimization of production processes, the identification of failure mechanisms, and validation of chips purchased for critical applications in fields such as healthcare and aviation.

New information:
The Observatory has been informed by the Human Rights Association (İnsan Haklari Derneği - İHD) of the sentencing of four lawyers members of İHD Ankara Branch, Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, former Chairperson, as well as Messrs. Hasan Anlar, General Executive Board member, Halil İbrahim Vargün, Chairperson and Murat Vargün.
According to the information received, on January 25, 2013, Ankara Heavy Penal Court No. 11 sentenced Ms. Filiz Kalaycı to seven years and six months of imprisonment as well as Mr. Hasan Anlar, Mr. Halil İbrahgim Vargün and Mr. Murat Vargün to six years and three months each on charges of "membership to an illegal organisation" under Article 314 of the Turkish Penal Code (TPC) due to their human rights activities. As their lawyers filed an appeal against the sentence, no arrest warrant was issued against the four lawyers.
The Observatory is deeply concerned by the sentencing of Ms. Filiz Kalaycı and Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil İbrahgim Vargün and Murat Vargün, which seems to merely aim at sanctioning their human rights activities, and calls upon the Turkish authorities to review it.
It further recalls that dozens of human rights defenders are currently subjected to prolonged judicial harassment for abusive terrorism charges in Turkey. In this context, İHD has particularly been the subject of a systematic campaign of judicial harassment, as a direct result of its human rights work in Turkey, in particular on Kurdish issues.
Background information:
On May 12, 2009, in Ankara, the offices and homes of Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil İbrahim Vargün and Murat Vargün were raided by officers of the Anti-Terror Unit of the police, who were in possession of a search warrant and a detention order against them. They were immediately arrested, placed in police custody in the Anti-Terror Forces Unit detention centre, and released in the night of May 14, 2009. The Public Prosecutor brought Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil Ibrahim Vargun and Murat Vargun before Ankara Heavy Penal Court No. 11 and requested that they be remanded in detention. However, the court decided to release Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil Ibrahim Vargun and Murat Vargun, but imposed a travel ban on them, on the basis of Article 109 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
The Public Prosecutor appealed the decision, and issued a warrant of arrest against Ms. Filiz Kalaycı on May 25, 2009. On May 28, 2009, Ms. Filiz Kalaycı was re-arrested on the basis of an allegation of "aiding illegal organisations". Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil İbrahim Vargün and Murat Vargün were also subject to the same allegations but not arrested.
These acts of harassment intervened after the publication by İHD of a report on human rights violations in prisons of Turkey on February 6, 2009 and made it public to draw attention on these violations. İHD had shared this report with the authorities. In addition, Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil İbrahim Vargün and Murat Vargün had been working on cases of human rights violations that occurred in detention, and as a consequence they often received letters of complaint from prison inmates. The charges are notably related to contacts entertained by the lawyers with their clients.
Their first hearing was held on November 9, 2009 before Ankara Heavy Penal Court No. 11. Although the defence lawyers claimed that the accusation of the Prosecutor against İHD lawyers and members was unfair and the evidence was both illegal and insufficient, the court rejected the petition. On January 28, 2010, Ms. Filiz Kalaycı as well as Messrs. Hasan Anlar, Halil İbrahim Vargün and Murat Vargün, appeared before Ankara Heavy Penal Court No. 11, which ordered Ms. Filiz Kalaycı's release. The trial was postponed several times until it resumed on October 6, 2011.
Actions required:
Please write to the Turkish authorities, urging them to:
i. Guarantee in all circumstances the physical and psychological integrity of Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, Mr. Hasan Anlar, Mr. Halil İbrahgim Vargün, Mr. Murat Vargün as well as all human rights defenders in Turkey;
ii. Put an end to all acts harassment, including at the judicial level, against Ms. Filiz Kalaycı, Mr. Hasan Anlar, Mr. Halil İbrahgim Vargün, Mr. Murat Vargün, as well as against all human rights defenders in Turkey;
iii. Comply with the provisions of the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders, especially its Article 1, which states that "everyone has the right, individually and in association with others, to promote and to strive for the protection and realisation of human rights and fundamental freedoms at the national and international levels", as well as Article 12.2, which provides that "the State shall take all necessary measures to ensure the protection by the competent authorities of everyone, individually and in association with others, against any violence, threats, retaliation, de facto or de jure adverse discrimination, pressure or any other arbitrary action as a consequence of his or her legitimate exercise of the rights referred to in the present Declaration";
iv. More generally, ensure in all circumstances the respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms in accordance with international and regional human rights instruments ratified by Turkey.

Detailed Product Description Product Name: 2.4 GHz Drone Jammer Application: Drone Jamming Net Weight: 40 Kgs RF Output Power: 100 To 300 Watts Antennas Quantity: 8 Antennas UPS Battery: Available Operating Temp: -10 To 50℃ Dimension: 630×530×330mm Power Of Each Band: 20 To 50 Watts Operating Humidity: 5% - 95% 2.4 GHz Drone Jammer Drone Jamming Device With 2 Hours Inner Battery Drone Jamming Device provides a safe countermeasure against a wide range of drone models. It allows for a controlled management of drone payload such as explosives, with no damage to common drones models or surrounding environment due to the drones generally responding via a vertical controlled landing on the spot, or returning back to the starting point (assisting to track the operator). BENEFITS OF DRONE JAMMING DEVICE TACTICAL DRONE JAMMER: Effective coverage: Allows for an up to 2km coverage, in a wide range of environmental conditions Portable: Rifle shape with a backpack, one person operation Easy to use: no technical training for set up or use required Immediate video cease: immediately ceases video transmission back to the drone operator Enables investigation: drone remains intact and available for forensic investigation Description The battle for control of the skies continues. As the amount of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) drones increases each year, many people are stepping up their efforts to keep the devices out of the air. Times Starlight Technology, a traditional RF Signal jammer manufacturer in Shenzhen, has now developed various of new products, dubbed the Drone Jamming Device, that attacks UAVs with radio waves. The Drone Jamming Device stated to use "radio control frequency disruption technologies to safely stop drones in the air, before they can pose a threat to military or civilian safety." It operates on standard GPS, 2.4G, 5.8G and ISM radio bands, allowing for it to interference with both commercial and special UAV drone signals. The Drone Jamming Device can hit objects from 100 to 5000 meters with an effective angle from 30° to 360°. A Drone Jamming Device can be done from the smallest handheld portable jammer to the biggest Prison Jammer and VIP vehicle Mounted Jammer by different requirements. When a remote control signal is interfered, drones will often enter into their safety protocols, which usually includes one of three options. It will either hover in place until the pilot can regain a control link, attempt to land so the pilot can recover it physically, or try to return to its point of origin. Since the Drone Jamming Device is mentioned to be attacking the GPS signal as well (for optional, adjustable and can be turned off independently), the scenario is that the device will hover for a while or try to land. Features 1. Wireless Signal Jammer High Power Manpack Portable Blocker Briefcase Type 2. Modular construction for easy maintenance, repair and upgrade. 3. Jam up to SIX different jamming modules. 4. Max 300 watt total RF output power. 5. Systematic Smart Cooling System. 6. The general design of the system meets military requirements. 7. Frequency bands and output power selectable. 8. Integrated main equipment, battery, and antennas increases mobility of the device 9. Different frequency bands can be controlled independently by different switches 10. Local or wire control operation mode can be selected based on actual environment 11. AC or DC power supply can be selected 12. Power Amplifiers protection design ensures the working reliabity of the device. 13.

Alitalia under scrutiny of a double investigation
The Italian authorities opened an investigation to determine whether or not Etihad Airways was directly responsible for the bankruptcy Alitalia declared on May 11, 2017. The probe started on May 22, 2018, by a police raid in the headquarters of the Italian flag carrier.
The prosecutor of Civitavecchia court (where the headquarters are located) opened an investigation for fraudulent bankruptcy "under the assumption that the management appointed by the (Emirati) company is responsible for a loss of €400 million," according to local media La Repubblica.
During the Italian Financial Police raid documents and computers were seized. Consequently, three last CEOs of Alitalia - Silvano Cassano, Luca Cordero di Montezemolo and Mark Ball Cramer - are now under scrutiny. They will have to answer, for example, to the suspicious sale of several Alitalia slots to its parent company Etihad.
Despite owning 49% of the company that it acquired back in 2014, Etihad was not in charge of the company's administration. The management was in the hands of the shareholders of Cai-Midco, a holding company with 51% of Alitalia's capital regrouping the banks UniCredit and Intesa Sanpaolo, the Poste Italiane and several other private investors.
In the meantime, the sale of Alitalia is still debated. Three offers have been made, including one by European giant Lufthansa which the former Minister of Economic Development, Carlo Calenda, called "the most promising", another one by U.S. company Delta Airlines and the third one by Hungarian LCC Wizz Air.
However, the sale could be compromised by the political landscape of Italy. The coalition majority formed of the two right-wing parties (the League and the Five Stars Movement) that came first in the Italian general election of March 4, 2018, have presented a draft of their political program in which they state that Alitalia should "remain Italian" and be revitalized through a "national strategic plan".
Another obstacle comes in the way of Alitalia's survival: in May 2017, after the airline employees rejected another austerity plan, leading to the company's bankruptcy, the Italian government granted a loan of €300 million, followed by an additional €600 million in October 2017. The European Commission opened an investigation on April 23, 2018, to determine if the loan was or not a state subsidy, which could infringe the European competition laws.

Statement of U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander Honoring Rosa Parks
Posted on October 25, 2005
We often discuss how far we have to go as a country in race relations. Thinking of Rosa Parks reminds me of how far we have come. In 1955 when she refused to give up her seat on the bus in Montgomery, African Americans in the South could not eat in the same restaurants, go to the same colleges, sleep in the same motels, be cared for in the same hospitals and compete on the same teams as other Americans. Her courage has earned for her a noble place in the history of our nation's struggle for equal opportunity.

Home > Press > OLED vs LED Lighting
By Cathleen Thiele, Technology Analyst, IDTechEx
The latest devolopments in the OLED lighting space will be one of the major topics at the forthcoming Printed Electronics USA 2012 conference & exhibition (www.printedelectronicsusa.com). The event, being held on December 5-6 in the heart of silicon valley at Santa Clara, CA, USA, focuses on the commercialization of the technology, covering broadly organic, inorganic, thin film and flexible nanotechnologies.
LED Market
It has taken twenty years for LED lighting to reach 8% of the $80 billion global lighting market, appearing in everything from car headlights to home lighting to street lighting. However, compared to the previous years, the foremost rapid growth has slowed down and every possible niche market is fairly populated.
What is the impact on OLED lighting? Will those in OLED lighting achieve efficiencies, yields and lifetimes fast enough before LED becomes ingrained? Printing is already being applied to LED lighting for connectors and even printing LEDs themselves. Others are mounting LEDs on flexible substrates. But will the thermal problems restrict the applicability of LED lighting on flexible substrates, paving the way for OLED lighting there? Who is investing in OLED lighting manufacturing?
OLED Market
Just as it is the case with the LED market the majority of the OLED market is still driven by displays. Compared to that, the OLED lighting market is very much in its infancy, with rather expensive OLED luminares and lamps commercially available as samples or used in design installation, but no mass production is in place, yet. Nevertheless, OLED lighting attracted a lot of interest and investment in the last couple of years and virtually all lighting companies are involved in OLED research and development. If OLED lighting is to suceed in penetrating only a small portion of the global lighting market, revenues could be in the millions. In fact, IDTechEx forecasts a $200-300M annual opportunity for OLED lighting in the next 2-3 years.
What comes next?
The next big topic for OLED lighting R&D is the development of flexible panels resulting in first products by 2015. This is driven by and will benefit from the flexibility trend for OLED displays, which will drive the development of better and cheaper flexible barriers, a key bottleneck for the technology, in the next couple of years.
Key Challenges
Other key challenges ahead are investment for larger area device manufacturing to lower the panel cost, reduction of material costs (esp. for glass, edge barriers etc), improved yield, the availability of low cost, and differentiated product design and marketing from LED lighting.
Printed Electronics USA 2012
At the forthcoming Printed Electronics USA 2012 event the topic will be discussed in great detail by the following presenters:
Dr Srinivas Sista, Materials Scientist at GE Global Research will talk about OLEDs for Lighting Applications, with focus on improving the performance (Efficiency, Lifetime and Cost) of solution processed OLEDs through device design. GE Global Research is one of the world's most diversified industrial research labs, providing innovative technology for all of GE's businesses. GE Research has been the cornerstone of GE technology for more than 100 years, developing breakthrough innovations in areas such as medical imaging, energy generation technology, jet engines and lighting.
The applicability of Printed Electronics Technologies to OLED lighting will be discussed by Mr Takeo Arai of Konica Minolta, Japan; this includes Konica Minolta's activity in OLED lighting, their world's first all-phosphorescent OLED product, a technical approach to R2R process for OLED lighting, and high-barrier films for printed electronics or flexible OLED. Konica Minolta, a leading company in EP (Electrophotographic Printing) sector, now has industrial inkjet technology as well.
A market forecast for the OLED lighting sector compared to state-of-the-art LED lighting will be given by Dr Norman Bardsley, Consultant on Displays and Organic Electronics at Bardsley Consulting. He will compare large area OLED lighting agains large areas diffuse lighting as well as capital, material and performance of LED vs vacuum processed OLED lighting vs solution processed OLED lighting, and conclude with a LED and OLED lighting forecasts 2013-2023.
Mr Mike Lu, Director OLED Technology at Acuity Brands Lighting, will give an overview of OPLED Luminaire products and application designs.
Related topics discussed at Printed Electronics USA 2012 are Flexible & Bistable Displays, New Progess with Barrier Film, The Future of Transparent Conductors and more. For further information and registration see www.PrintedElectronicsUSA.com
Report on OLED vs LED
You can learn more by referring to the IDTechEx report on "OLED vs LED Lighting - Analysis, Players and Markets". This report outlines the technological trends in OLED and LED lightings. It also identifies key areas requiring innovation in order to improve performance and to drive down cost. Furthermore, this report critically assess the selling points of OLED vs LED lighting on the basis of different parameters including form factor, flexibility, efficiency, cost, emission temperature, etc. Next, the report examines the value proposition of OLED for different target markets, including various niche segments in the residential, commercial and industrial lighting spaces. Finally, this book paints detailed picture of the OLED and LED value chains, identifying players at every stage.

Author's Note: Another update for you & reviews, as always, welcome.
Chapter 8:
They'd eaten dinner and all the time she was plugged in both holes. He made her suck him periodically and he'd still allowed her to cum freely and she had repeatedly. He'd laughed at the snail trail as he called it, that she left on his lap and the chairs when she sat down. He could tell she was desperate for his cock, but there was something else he wanted to try first and then of course there was the discussion about Zav and him taking her over.
"You're looking lovely and rosy" he smiled, rubbing her tits, "flushed by the sun. How do you feel?"
"Yes Sir."
"How do you fancy trying something else?" He asked.
"Yes please Sir."
"No Sir, green." She smiled, rubbing her nipples. "Everything we've done has been so good, so I trust you."
"Good girl, wait there then, in presentation pose please." He watched as she jumped up and moved to stand legs apart, ass and tits out with her hands behind her back and he kissed her before disappearing back to the kitchen to get the other item he'd bought in the adult shop some weeks before. Now her nipples were more healed, he was willing to try it. "Shut your eyes girl." As she did, he looped the medium weight gauge chain around her neck before attaching it to the bolt and ring in her nipples and he felt her shiver. He then tugged gently. "Open your eyes girl. What do you think?"
"Oh Sir!" She gasped, loving the feel of the chain around her and the added pressure to her nipples as due to the sheer size of her tits, the chain had greater tension. "You've just made me more horny!"
"Good girl" he smiled. "How about we go for a drive?"
"A drive? Really Sir?"
"Sir, do you mean I'm to go like this?"
"Exactly as you are, though you may wish to put shoes on, I'll leave that choice to you." He watched her pause. "Colour?" he demanded.
"Green Sir." But there was hesitation in her voice.
"Colour?" He demanded again.
"Green Sir." She said more assuredly.
"Ok then. Shoes?"
The sun had only just gone down, so she could be clearly seen as they drove off. He'd put a scarf in the car just in case, but he'd go for a more rural drive first before they headed into town. He couldn't wait to see the reactions. He'd put a towel down on the car seat before she sat, as he wasn't sure how squirty she'd be. He tugged on her nipple chain every so often and heard her little gasps as he did. Music played in the car and he encouraged her to seat dance, as it made those tits jiggle.
"How are the vibrations feeling?"
"So good Sir" she laughed, a bit breathless.
"Ready for town now?" It was dark out now and they'd passed a few cars, several having noticed and one having tailed them for a bit, another honking the car's horn. As they joined the dual carriage way, he deliberately drew up alongside a lorry. "Give him a show girl" Rob commanded, seeing that the lorry driver had clocked her and was gawping at her. He watched as she pulled on her nipple chain, before she turned to the window, lowered it and gave the guy a good show, before widening her legs so he could see her plugged pussy. She watched him stick his tongue out and waggle it at her and she fingered her clit for him, before their car sped away.
"Enjoy yourself?" He asked.
"Sir, I'm so horny, it's not funny." She turned to look at him as she gently pulled on her nipple chain. "You going to fuck me or let anyone else fuck me any time soon?"
"You're such a slut" he laughed. "That's what the plugs are there to do girl."
"It's not the same Sir."
"Don't whine girl. You'll get cock when I'm good and ready."
They drove into the town and she turned more to face the window, letting anyone see her. She waved at a couple of men in their mid-30s and grinned as their mouths opened in surprise. She jiggled for them before the car moved off. A couple of people shouted at her and called her a whore, but they kept moving, until they hit the lights. A car with a couple pulled up next to them and the male driver couldn't believe his eyes. He nudged his girlfriend and she looked shocked, before she grinned and then pulled up her own t-shirt revealing a fairly decent set of tits, but which were too small for Rob's taste.
"Wind down the window." Rob commanded. She did and he lent over her. "Want to play?" He asked the couple. He saw shock register on their faces, before a short non-verbal conversation took place, then she answered.
"Yes… Yeah, why not."
"Ok, I know a place, follow me. That ok?" Again he watched them communicate as the car behind tooted them.
"Yes, we'll follow."
Ten minutes later, they were in a secluded side-road off the dual carriageway, down a track that the summer had hidden well with wild flowers and weeds. The smell of pollen was heavy in the air, which was still warm after a hot day. They drove in and parked up.
"Get out girl." He commanded. She nodded and stepped out the car gingerly, her ass and pussy tender from the prolonged wearing of the plugs and the vibrations. The other car drew up close to them and the couple stepped out and Rob joined them. The guy started to introduce them, but he interrupted.
"No names, we don't need to know who you are. She's here to be fucked and that's what she's been desperate for all evening. Show them girl." She twirled in front of them, before bending over and showing her 2 plugs. "You can do what you like to her, you included" he smiled at the woman who was looking slightly over-whelmed at the experience. "She loves her tits fondled and her clit stroked."
"I speak and he's right. But he's my Dom and I like what we're doing." Julia smiled. "It's ok if you're not interested, but I am so ready for cock as he's kept me deprived all evening." She laughed, leaning back and pushing her arse into Rob's groin.
"Condoms only and her ass is mine." He handed the other man a condom and then turned to the girl. "You can watch, take part if you like or I can fuck you, fair's fair" he smirked. "Plus that will really annoy her as she's been wanting this all evening." He laughed cupping his bulging jeans.
"Suck me?" The boyfriend asked and immediately Julia dropped to her knees, pulling out his cock and taking it into her mouth. They watched her and Rob saw conflicted emotions across the girlfriend's face, before she turned to him and pulled up her t-shirt.
"I have very sensitive nipples, would you like to try them?" She asked shyly.
"My pleasure." He stepped forward and began to suckle them, using a bit of teeth on one before moving to the other. As he felt pleasure hit her, he pushed her top up further and ran his thumbs sharply over them, causing the now very sensitive nubs to shoot webs of arousal between her legs. "Can I?" He asked, indicating pulling her shorts open. She nodded as she watched her partner groan at the naked woman's mouth on him. Rob undid her shorts, lowering them and began expertly to play with her clit.
"Wanna fuck you." The boyfriend said huskily to Julia.
"All yours, but leave the butt plug in there. Makes a real difference and don't forget my tits." She sheathed him in the condom and pulled out her pussy plug, making sure both the strangers saw the size and shape, before beginning to suck on it.
"Want my cock?" Rob asked, the girl clearly turned on at the sight of her boyfriend fucking another woman.
"Yeah" she replied, turning to look at him. "Condom though?"
"Of course, only ever bareback her ass." He stepped away and opened his fly, relieving the pressure on his cock. Her eyes widened at the size of it and as he sheathed it. "Still sure?" He asked, wanting to make doubly sure.
"Yeah, make me cum with that monster." She smiled, reaching out to stroke it.
"My pleasure." He entered her gently and didn't pound her in the same way as he would have done if it had been his girl. He heard her gasp with pleasure, and reached down to finger her clit and before long he felt her muscles contract on his cock and she was coming. She was loud as she came and her boyfriend turned to look at her, smiling as he saw her and then pounding Julia just that little bit harder as he came inside her in the condom. Pulling out of Julia, he groped her, pulling the chain on her nipples before pressing on the plug in her ass.
"Put the dog cock back inside me, I like feeling full." Julia grinned, bending over to show them all what he did. The guy pushed it in slowly, fucking her with it as he did, before securing it by pushing the bulbous end in.
"You've got to try something in your arse." The stranger said turning to his girlfriend who still had Rob's cock inside her. "Feels amazing."
"Thank you for your pleasure." Julia said politely, before they both got back in the car. As they drove off, they could see that they'd left the couple fucking.
"Scratch the itch?" Rob asked as they were heading back to his.
"A bit Sir, but his cock wasn't as good as yours." She paused, "was fun though Sir."
"Good, you're a very good girl." He smiled at her, tugging the nipple chain and she felt a little bit unnerved, as there seemed to be something behind those words. He noticed a police car ahead and he smiled. "You might want to reach for that scarf at your feet." He pointed at the police car.
Back at the house, he locked up and took her upstairs to his bedroom. He smiled at her as she looked delighted to finally get what he'd been teasing her with all evening.
"Suck me."
"With pleasure Sir." He pushed deep down into her throat, face fucking her hard as he tugged on her nipple chain and he watched her eyes water and drool escape from her mouth. Pushing it back in and sliding a finger in beside his cock, he pushed in as far as he could and held her head against him, causing her to not be able to breathe. Counting to 30, he released her and pulled out, before dragging her to the bed.
"Ass or pussy?"
"Pussy this time Sir. Want to feel you."

Michael Portillo examines the undisturbed reports, letters and diaries that reveal how Britain's perspectives on the Irish War of Independence were as divided as the island of Ireland itself. He unravels a web of mystery and intrigue woven by the British ruling classes, for whom the essential issue was never Ireland, but their own party and career advantage, and tells the story of a guerrilla war as told by those who tried to suppress it.
Michael Portillo concludes his fascinating examination of the War of Independence in Ireland, leading up to the ceasefire in 1921.

Your wedding shop must be able to handle all of your concerns with wedding dresses. If they are not after that you could wish to think about seeking bridal gown in other places.
A reputable business should not try to conceal any information from you. Ask for the name of the manufacturer or designer and write the name on your receipt. If you don't receive the appropriate responses that should raise a warning flag. Under the law, sample wedding gowns must be properly labeled to include fiber content, country of origin, care instructions, and one of the following business distribution channels must be identified: Manufacturer's name or RN (Registered Number) or the retailer's name.

Some bride-to-bes understood from the start they wanted a developer tag, but life just really did not cooperate by making them heiresses. Yet all is not lost if you agree to go shopping courageously. At any type of given minute, a better-heeled new bride is offering her once-used St. Pucchi or Ulla-Maija on ebay.com. She paid thousands upon thousands, however you, wise consumer, will certainly pay half that or less.

Bulking up business
Stena Bulk is a market-leading tanker shipping company providing maritime logistical services for oil and product cargo across the world. It is part of the wider Stena family – or Stena Sphere – and thus offers the same reliable, high quality and innovative service ethic that defines other Stena companies. It has been involved with this market since its foundation in 1982 but over the last 30 years has widened its remit to encompass other business units as well: in the mid-1990s a joint venture with Texaco (now Chevron) saw it begin to adopt mid-range (MR) vessels, whilst a decision to expand into LNG carriers was made at the beginning of 2011.
Stena Bulk was last featured in Shipping & Marine in spring last year, at which point the company had just announced a programme of acquisition for seven newbuild suezmax tankers. Today, two of those seven have now been delivered – Stena Superior and Stena Suede – and as executive vice president Erik Hanell illustrates, they have proved to be a great investment: "They are being built by Samsung Heavy Industries, one of the best shipyards in the world, so the project has gone very smoothly. Delivery has been on time each time and the tankers were exactly what we expected.
"When we ordered the ships we invested an extra five million dollars in additional fuel saving and environmentally friendly equipment and, once they arrived, we saw very quickly the positive impact of the extra money. Primarily there is a major reduction in fuel consumption when compared with other vessels of a similar age of about 15 per cent. The ships are also fitted with a volatile organic compound (VOC) reduction system that lowers VOC emissions during loading, unloading and transportation of cargo."
Following the successful delivery of the first two vessels, the next five are expected over the next few years. "They are all on schedule," Eriks adds, "and we will be receiving another three vessels this year. The remaining two will arrive in 2013. Once again we are dealing with Samsung Heavy Industries and other professional yards for this so we foresee no problems. The question is more what time of day they will be delivered rather than what day."
As well as being part of Stena Bulk's independent operations, the seven suezmaxes – alongside a number of other medium sized vessels in its fleet – are part of the Stena-Sonangol Pool, which makes available 23 suezmax tankers for spot charters across the world. Stena Bulk operates the pool from its offices in Houston, Gothenburg and Singapore with staff from the state-owned Angolan oil company Sonangol helping run commercial operations. Two other partners are involved as well: Principal Martime and d'Amico.
When creating the pool in 2005, Stena Bulk and Sonangol aimed to maximise the profits from the available ships by facilitating high quality spot trading using vessels with an average age of 3.5 years across the fleet. Its success has been great, with the Stena-Sonangol Pool consistently beating competitors as well as sector benchmarks since day one. Over the next year, the pool is expected to expand even further to a total of 30 vessels.
Stena Bulk has expanded in other areas of its business as well. At the start of last year and after observing the market for some time, the company decided that a move into the LNG sector would maintain its relevance in the maritime market well into the future. "When we had the opportunity to purchase three LNG tankers in May, we were fast in making that acquisition," says Erik. "From enquiry to delivery the whole thing took only two weeks, and since then it has been another huge success. The market was strong when we entered it but today it is even stronger; the ships have been chartered out on profitable rates consistently. We are now finalising longer term charter contracts with key players in the market."
The company has also increased its MR portfolio through the incorporation of Weco, now called Stena Weco, in January 2011. Weco is a specialist in transportation of edible oils, palm oils and easy chemicals and until its acquisition this was an area Stena Bulk had previously had little experience in. Along with experience, 15 MR vessels were added to Stena Bulk's repertoire whilst Weco gained from the financial strength and market-wide expertise that the Stena Sphere offers. Stena Weco's good performance proved encouraging and the company is expected to expand its fleet roster up to 50 ships by 2014.
Stena Weco in particular has been a positive influence on Stena Bulk's trading through 2011. "Most people in tankers have had quite a few tough years and so have we, but in terms of activity 2011 was a great year," explains Erik. "Stena Weco was one big step on the MR side and with LNG having had a relatively positive year, our LNG ships were very popular and generated a lot of revenue. With this and the ongoing delivery of suezmaxes, though, we are looking forward to the next couple of years."
LNG will form an increasingly important part of Stena Bulk's future operations in what has been called its 'LNG offensive'. The $700 million three-ship acquisition is just the beginning of what Stena Bulk hopes will become a core part of its service with the market expected to grow eight per cent per year for at least the next decade. Despite this, learning from mistakes made by the industry in recent history, Stena Bulk is unlikely to procure vessels on speculation and instead will secure contracts before purchasing new or second hand vessels. "Next year and 2013 will be exciting years," Erik concludes. "We can leave 2011 behind us, appreciating it not for its numbers but as a good time of investments made for the future. Expect to see a lot of interesting things coming from Stena Bulk over the next years to come."
Successful new suezmaxes
Expanding into LNG
Plenty of future prospects

Lexical Functions - F$CONTEXT
We mentioned the
F$CONTEXT creates a context in which repeated calls to F$PID operates. F$PID returns the process ID for one or more processes (discussed in the next article). Which process ID(s) are returned depends upon the context created by F$CONTEXT. Essentially, it creates a filter used to select processes. We can create complex filters by using F$CONTEXT on the same symbol name multiple times, which creates a set of filters that are used together. For instance, we might want to create a filter that filters out any process whose name doesn't start with "A" and which are batch jobs. Then we use F$PID to retrieve one process ID at a time for those that match our filter. Each F$PID call will update the context so that the next call will get the next process matching our criteria.
If you've been paying attention, you have noticed that F$CONTEXT corresponds to the PROCESS_SCAN system call that we presented in article 70. However, there is one difference that complicates things. The system call takes a list of filters, whereas F$CONTEXT can only deal with a single filter at a time. This is a restriction of DCL/UCL due to the syntax and capabilities of the scripting language. The way that F$CONTEXT works is that it can be called multiple times - each call adding a filter to a context. Once all filters have been defined, the F$PID function can be used to iterate through the matching processes. So, the way we have to work this is to create a context object in UCL, use it to gather the filters, and then when F$PID is called we build a list and call the PROCESS_SCAN call. Of course, that means that attempting to add another filter via F$CONTEXT to the same context cannot be done once F$PID is used. The UOS context has already been created and used at this point. Thus, attempting to add another filter will result in a UCL error.
Here is a description of the F$CONTEXT lexical function:
Return Value
If the symbol is not yet defined or doesn't refer to a valid UCL context, a new context is created and the address is assigned to the symbol. If the symbol already refers to a valid UCL context, the F$CONTEXT call will add another filter to the existing context. Once F$PID is used with this context, the context is "frozen" and further attempts to add more filters will result in an error, although the context will remain valid and can continue to be used. To cancel a context, use the CANCEL "criteria".
Multiple values can be used for a given criteria. For instance, if you wanted to
iterate over all processes with ther username "SYSTEM", or "ALEX", or "MARKETING",
you could use the following:
Further, wildcards can be used with any string comparison. Both the asterisk (*)
and question mark (?) wildcards are allowed. For example, to iterate
through all processes with a username starting with "A", you could use the following:
Function_Reference function to handle the F$CONTEXT
lexical function. First we make sure that the function name is followed by a
parenthesis (indicating the start of a parameter list). If one is not found, we
exit. Then we call the Parse_Context function to process the parameters themselves.
Then we check for the closing parenthesis and exit if not found. Then we create
an expression node and assign the result of the function to it.
Here is the Missing_Parentheses function:
Parse_Context function parses the parameter list for the F$CONTEXT
lexical function. One of the first things we do is create a TFilter instance. We
will cover the TFilter class later in the article.
code. We also add the
PSCAN_M_OR flag on all but the last item.
Missing_Comma function is called to make sure a comma is
in the token stream. If there isn't one, we return true and set the error.
Get_Context function obtains an existing context or returns nil
if the symbol is non-numeric or not an address in the Contexts_List list.
keeps a list of all process contexts for the UCL user.
The destructor removes itself from the list and deletes the filters and the filter
list. Also, if the UCL_Context has been set already, we cancel it by calling
SYS_PROCESS_SCAN with that context and a nil list.
In the next article, we will discuss F$PID.

HPL hotels and resorts have its headquarters located in Singapore and manage properties in Bali, Pataya and Langkawai. The HPL group manages not only manages hotels and resorts but also Boutique hotels in Asia as well as some Hard Rock Café hotels and luxury resorts. Beach destination hotels are their speciality and with the increase of domestic Asian travel they do not seem to be able to expand fast enough to keep up with demand. The growth of HPL has been jaw dropping as they expand into further management contracts and lease agreements across Asia HPL is certainly a company to watch.
Our Hot Pick
Mad Monkey Hostels in Cambodia has proved popular with all types of travellers even though the company is firmly targeted on the booming youth travel market. The fact that the youth travel market is seeing so much growth in the flashpacker / backpacker sector combined with the astronomical Asian travel growth in general has sent this company skyrocketing. They have deployed one new property per year since opening and are now the defacto powerhouse of the youth hostel sector in Cambodia. They recently announced a further expansion of the hostel brand into budget hotels and no sooner had they announced it the company had managed to secure some very prestigious properties under their management.
The hostel chain is extremely popular in Cambodia and has three locations, Kampot, Siem Reap and Phnom Pehn. The staff at the Mad Monkey consists of a 200 person crew to look after just 500 guests which has allowed them to price differentiate based on the hotel like level of service the company gives guests. If the management contracts and the existing hostel growth were not enough they also expanded an already bouyant hostel tours business into the escorted tours market with the intention of competing against more established companies such as Contiki and Intrepid, when they opened up the first 40 tour places they had sold out within an hour of being posted on the website. The phenomenal support they receive from the customers is probably augmented by this companies socially responsible policies and they are a stated "for profit social enterprise" making them potentially one of the most successful truly social enterprises in the global hospitality sector right now. www.madmonkeyhostels.com
