Corolla-like EV with BYD Blade battery could be unveiled as Toyota bZ3 or bZ4 [Update]

Update: ‘Design’ section added.

Toyota’s next bZ series EV model following the bZ4X crossover will be a sedan, a report from Reuters suggested in December 2021. As per the report, four people who have knowledge about Toyota’s product plans have said that a Toyota Corolla-like Toyota bZ sedan is in the making. The car’s badge would miss out on the ‘X’ because it would not be a crossover-SUV.

The first Toyota bZ sedan, possibly called Toyota bZ3 or Toyota bZ4, will feature a sleeker and more contemporary design than the Corolla. It’s likely to draw on the design of the Toyota bZ SDN concept that was unveiled at TMC’s Japanese press conference on December 14, 2021. At the front, the show car has a low and curvy bonnet featuring power bulges on the flanks, quad-eyed, L-shaped headlamps, L-shaped DRLs with a thin horizontal light strip between them, and a smooth closed panel in place of a radiator grille.

Viewing from the sides, the Toyota bZ SDN’s roofline merges smoothly into the tail section, making it more aerodynamic than the Corolla. The more pronounced shoulders give it an athletic appearance, and there’s a small kick in the beltline that draws attention. The beltline straightens up in the quarter glass area, leaving the greenhouse with a little quirkiness. The doors are clean and simple, while the stylish aero wheels make the car instantly perceivable as an EV.

Toyota has confirmed that the bZ4X, its first global high-volume EV, won’t be affordable for all. For the second bZ EV, Toyota has collaborated with BYD to price it competitively. Two sources described this model as an electric holy grail for the Japanese automaker. They said that this car would come with BYD’s LFP Blade batteries. Thanks to the low-cost and less bulky batteries and BYD’s engineering expertise, the Corolla-like Toyota bZ sedan should be able to compete with the new EVs from Chinese brands.

According to another source, one could think of the bZ sedan as “a Corolla with bigger back-seat section.” Apparently, Toyota is designing it as per the specific needs of Chinese customers, and understandably so, with the report claiming it will be a China-only model. The report doesn’t say, but it is safe to assume that there will be two cars with slightly different designs in China, one for FAW Toyota and one for GAC Toyota.

An interesting nugget revealed was that when you lay the BYD Blade battery pack’s modules flat on the floor, it’s about 10 cm thick, approximately 5-10 cm thinner than regular lithium-ion battery packs. It may provide significant space-saving advantages and allow Toyota to pitch the electric sedan as a spacious, stylish, and zero-emissions alternative to the acclaimed Corolla.

Price & Release Date

Reuters states that the Toyota bZ sedan (would it be the Toyota bZ3 or Toyota bZ4?) will debut in concept form at Auto China 2022 (2022 Beijing Auto Show) that will open on April 21, 2022. It will go on sale in late-2022, and according to one source, may cost under CNY 200,000 (EUR 27,672/USD 31,467) in the base configuration. Toyota’s bZ sedan will likely rival the Xpeng P5, the prices of which start at just CNY 157,900 (EUR 21,847/USD 24,843). The Chinese model offers plenty of smart features, including autonomous driving, cinema mode, and more.

Toyota bZ3/Toyota bZ4 FAQs

What is the Toyota bZ sedan release date?

Reuters reports a late-2022 release date for the first Toyota bZ sedan.

What will be the Toyota bZ sedan price?

The Toyota bZ sedan may cost CNY 200,000 (EUR 27,672/USD 31,467) onwards. Toyota is unlikely to offer the EV outside China.

Which cars will be Toyota bZ sedan competitors?

The bZ sedan will likely rival the Xpeng P5 and other Chinese models.

Using Artificial Intelligence to simplify document capture

Processing document data quickly and accurately is crucial for any business to remain competitive in today’s fast-evolving digital age. With documents making up the heart of business processes in any given organisation — regardless of the industry or size — that organisation’s success relies on its ability to locate, access, and understand document data.

Doing this effectively requires document automation capabilities, but not all automation technologies are created equal. To enhance business processes, technologies such as advanced data capture and Machine Learning need to integrate with business applications, devices, and workflows seamlessly. Advanced document capture solutions blend cutting-edge innovations in data capture, Machine Learning, and information management into tools and technologies that improve any digital solution, system, or device performance.

This blog explores how AI and Machine Learning can simplify and enhance document capture to bring even more value to your business.

Today, most Machine Learning models are inspired by how neurons in the brain need to connect and adapt. These neural network models can be applied to several processes, from character recognition to document processing. Machine Learning and other advanced automation techniques are now being applied to capture, classify, and manage information in more efficient ways, that can reduce the need for human input.

System integrators and developers can easily extend the scope and value of solutions and platforms with powerful tools to build business intelligence and boost process performance. But beyond the technology, additional factors are required for the solution to be truly successful. While some might think of Machine Learning as some kind of magic, one-size-fits-all solution, in reality, it’s an aggregation of hundreds of different algorithms and techniques. Choosing the right technique and algorithm for any given use case requires extensive specialisation and knowledge. How you represent the inputs to a Machine Learning algorithm can have a massive effect on performance, speed, accuracy, and the solution’s robustness.

Before choosing a solution, you must evaluate details like ease of implementation, level of integration with your existing business processes, and the analytics tools that go along — all factors that contribute enormously to the product’s ease of use. Tools that are ready to use and easily embed into solutions, devices, and workflows, will ensure you have access to practical yet innovative technology that works, is reliable, and scalable over time.

Traditional recognition and capture solutions often rely on predefined business rules to process information. These rules place parameters around information capture to increase data recognition accuracy and reduce manual entry over time. However, these rules must be comprehensive to be effective and must include variations in documents for complete coverage.

Advanced Machine Learning capabilities make it straightforward to automatically categorize scanned or digital documents based on their content, even where the content is highly variable. Documents are automatically categorized using learn-by-example methods that can continue learning dynamically, adapting to new document types, and even learning from users’ actions. This type of automate-on-the-fly capability is light years beyond the old-school scan-and-store approach to document management. Gone are the days of manually defining parameters to enable your document classification processes.

But Machine Learning is useless without the data samples to train the system–and in the case of techniques like deep learning, it requires a lot of data. Obtaining these document samples should not become a burden or create privacy issues for your company. While some cloud providers may offer data extraction based purely on Machine Learning, these systems are “data-hungry.” They may hold any documents that your users are processing to further train and improve the system.

For anyone with sensitive documents–aka everyone–that’s simply unacceptable. New technology must be honed to ensure that the number of training documents required for effective machine learning is realistic and minimal. Your users have full control over and exclusive access to any documents used for training.

Additional options such as rules-based and NLP (natural language processing) techniques can be used alongside Machine Learning if and when they’re a better fit for the job. A typical example of this is in the area of data extraction where the solution can offer practical hybrid techniques to allow for additional information or metadata to enter the classification process and improve performance on challenging documents without sacrificing any learning power.

Depending on your specific use case for document capture, document automation technologies can be mixed and matched to meet your particular business needs. From high-performance OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to advanced document automation capabilities, modern solutions provide modular, ready-to-use technologies that you can plug into your systems for optimum deployment speed without compromising your existing offerings. The modules can be easily reconfigured across multiple projects so that you can make the most of your advanced data capture solution and bring more value to your customers.

Whether it’s a simple reference number or complex data with a highly variable location, AI makes it easy to reliably extract data from any document, even where the content is highly variable in format and layout. The solution is complete with a vast library of extraction modules that are ready to use, with general-purpose modules for common data like dates and reference numbers, modules for extracting personal information, and modules for invoice data.

Not everyone is a machine learning guru, and that’s ok. AI-driven tools can simplify and accelerate document automation integration into your existing software solutions, document processing services, and workflows. The turnkey, modular automation techniques provide your developers, integrators, and providers the ability to extend their business solutions’ scope and scale and extract more value from existing platforms to help boost your organisation’s overall performance.

Tomorrows sewing project!

Some of you might remember my other sewing projects, Vintage patterns I will try this autumn, still to this day I haven’t found a perfect fabric for these patterns.

I want to say I’m rather picky when it comes to fabric and clothes. I know that if I don’t think it will be perfect fabric for that pattern I won’t wear it.

But I guess that’s also what makes me rather limited.

So I went with my mom to one of my favorite fabric stores in Sweden. Sadly it can only be found 5 hours away from where I live. Luckily that’s where my mom and dad lives.

Like I said, I didn’t find a fabric for the patterns in the other blog post I have; Vintage patterns I will try this autumn.

But I found this wonderful autumn fabric in orange, brown, green that would make a lovely flared circle skirt. When I asked the owner for the price on this fabric she couldn’t find it in the database and gave me a much lower price than it should have been.

With this said; I hugged it and took 3 meters right away. What a bargain.

When I was home I also went through my moms sewing cabinet and put my hands on some new patterns.

One of these I’m going to use for the skirt. The other two patterns I feel have a more summer and maybe spring feeling to it.

Why I wanted these patterns was because I remember clearly when my mom sewed these dresses for herself and I forced her to make a mini version for me. We where twins in those dresses!

What I know my mom still have saved my dresses. Hopefully I will get a daughter myself in the future that would love to wear them.

Tomorrow I have invited my dear friend Maria to have a sewing day with me. I’m going to make this skirt, while she is doing some kind of embroidery. Our third sewing geek,Clara I think is out of town at this moment.

I will come with a new part when the skirt is done.

Wish me luck.

    Elin, I can’t wait to see that circle skirt! I used to wear them when I was little (think 1950s poodle), and about 15 years ago circle skirts had a brief comeback, no poodles this time… I wore them even though I was 50. I still had a figure then. 😉

        I think we should all dress to
        “show what’s in our heart”. It would make the world a more interesting place. Shame on me, I had to look up Victory Rolls. Hel-lo, they have been in every 40s movie I ever watched and loved and I had no idea what they were called! I looked them up after your mention. Thanks for naming them for me.

    So cool! Our 10 year old daughter loves to sew. My mother taught her and she took to it like a fish to water! She fixes clothes and other things for the family now. Such a great skill to have! God bless!

    How is your father? I have been praying for him. I pray for you and your boyfriend too!

    I hope your sewing day is fabulous! We used to sew all the time when were younger with Grandma and Mom. My clothing sewing skills leave something to be desired so these days I make more blankets and pillows than anything else! Definitely let us know how the skirt turns out!

    I hope your sewing goes well. What a long journey to buy fabric! Glad you could see your parents at the same time. What lovely memories of mother and daughter dresses. When my boys were small I had a friend who made matching dresses for herself and her 3 girls. I couldn’t sew when the children were littl3 – I am a late starter and still a beginner!

Space For Grace

There’s a thin layer of frost that ices the glass between the window that looks out of the airplane. From my seat I can look down and see the gentle folds of green and white, the valleys that rest between the Swiss Alps. We’re touching down in Zurich and I am “home” after spending the month back in North Carolina.

After leaving the mild, sunny days in Durham, the dreary dampness creeps into my body as an added insult. It’s a reflection of my own depression.

I’ve had a month full of medical appointments to tide me over for the year. Scans and skin-checks, blood draws and head shrinkings, all of the things I do to make sure my body is well. None of them, even my psychiatrist appointment, measures the condition of my heart or can really prescribe for my soul.

Two years abroad and maybe it’s finally the point where it really sinks in that I am on my own.

On my trip back to the U.S. my friends ask polite questions, but I can tell the newness of someone else’s adventure wears thin. There’s only so much vicarious travel one can do.

Some I’m sure feel abandoned and frustrated and want to give up on a real, working relationship.

I don’t have the answer to this.

In the end, I only know that my husband works in Switzerland and I want to support him. And so I pack everything up and stuff it into my luggage and board the plane. My carry-on bag is a false motif of braveness that I push in front of me like a shield.

What’s hardest is that it feels like I am really losing people in my life who I love dearly. How is that possible in this digital age of Face Time and Facebook and texting?

The plain truth may be that it takes more than words, more than intentions even, to be intimate.

Relationships need skin-on-skin time.

There is a freedom in running away from home, from leaving your past, your old stories, behind. You can hide, re-invent yourself, forget, move on.

But sometimes I think moving on is really just being afraid to stay in one place and face the hard things.

At least today that’s what I’m thinking. Ask me tomorrow and I may tell you that living abroad is a great way to get in touch and truly find yourself.

I don’t know.

I think some people think that my blog is too personal, too much information, and maybe an exercise in self-absorption.

Today that feels like it might be true.

But I hold onto it anyway, like a talisman. And I pass it along as a bit of advice.

One of my friends in the U.S. is depressed right now, and she asked me what to do, to give her some kind of advice to get through it.

I tell her: antidepressants, therapy, exercise and a UV light box. All good, right?

But the other answer might be: accept where you are. Embrace the depression. It’s just another part of who you are. Open up a little space to feel what you feel and see what else might come up.

I don’t want to tell her that this is the harder way. But it’s the only way I know.

I also tell her about my writing; I tell her that writing my blog is a way to bring the shadows into the light and that putting down my thoughts and feelings is a way to see a bigger picture, one with room for improvisation.

Well, I’m doing that today. And maybe it would be more appropriate for a diary, but here it is.

But I tell you this truth about myself, my pain, my struggle so that maybe you’ll read it – and I can picture you doing that – so that I’ll feel a little less alone.

So today, in a few minutes, I’m going to layer on my wooly running clothes and step out of this little apartment, and lock the door behind me, escape the stale atmosphere. I’ll stride onto the wet street and make my way down to the river. I’ll trot along the banks and try to peel back this tough rind of disappointment, in what I’m not entirely sure.

I’ll fill up my lungs with crisp air, get my pulse to skitter up a notch, and hope to free up some space inside my body to feel something new, and hope to move the pain along so as to make room for something else, anything else, damn it, other than this.

And I’ll hope for a little grace along the way.

9 thoughts on “Space For Grace

  1. Dearest Beth – your writing is so poignant and also speaks to both my heart and my experience – There are days when I am so sad I can barely move – or a wave of sadness engulfs me when I least expect it – sometimes I miss some folks so bad I can hardly breath…. Like you, I take a deep breath and “do” something – I don’t walk as much as I should in the colder days, but I will make up for it again during the summer in Northern where I have spent the last few summers and that helps. It is also near a small lake, and being able to look out at the water when I want/need to is so wonderful.

    Anyway, please keep writing and sharing! I would love to email you sometime, but I’s not sure that I have your email anymore, but I might… Sending love and light – Mary
    PS Peter is doing great, and is still in Atlanta – he is a standup comic part of the time and is working on films in various capacities – most recently as a wardrobe person for a new TV show…. I know he would have me send you love too – So here it comes!

  2. Your thoughts are honest and do reflect many realities of my life. I wish I had a way with words. January was a very tough time here in Michigan. Therapy, meditation class and some needed exercise only help a little. I know we have comrades in the depression of modern life. Keep writing your truths. They are those of many. You are not alone. I love you very much.

  3. Beth. Boy, do I know about skin hunger… One practical suggestion for you is to volunteer at a daycare or church somewhere, who maybe needs extra help during their services. It absolutely helped me when I became a nanny – especially with the pre-school and kindergarten set.. It’s nice being needed, comforting the tearful and wipe the messy.

    Your writing really got into my heart, dear Beth. I’ve been in a situation where depression overcame my “big picture” clarity and it’s no fun. Some people have a tryst, with all those highs and lows and everlasting regret to try to shake off the feeling of sad puzzlement; maybe see yourself, for a time, through someone else’s eyes.

    I think what’s happening with you is a loss of context. Of anyone I know, your life is built brick by brick around your loved ones, community. Even if you’ve made friends there in Switzerland, there’s no easy context to explore, other than being a temporary resident in somebody else’s scene. Where would you find a someone else like yourself to be good friends with? I imagine Judy went through some of these feelings when she decided to go to nursing school. Context. You could be a photojournalist easily. You take really good pictures and you’re pretty fluent in your very own ‘romance language’, so you could tap into your wisdom, your wicked eye for the wry take on something; and your emotional intelligent to write something to go with your pictures. Forget about anybody that may be watching and get engrossed in something and people will wan to know you, and what you’re doing. There, you go: context.

    Which brings me to how much this Space for Grace piece moved me when I read it. The more you trust your readers to really care as much for you, the more you’ll realize that for some of us, you feel closer than ever. For me, I feel like we could meet tomorrow and we’d be able to just pick up where we left off. So don’t let the isolation of common depression trick you into thinking you’re alone in this world. Make sure you’re on the best meds for your depression and smoke a little pot. Giggling helps, too.

  4. I have lots of people in my life these days, especially sick, dying and hurt people. Face-to-face living has shoved Facebook pretty much out of my life. I told a friend, and your sisters, that for the past few months I feel like I have been trying to swimming in a sea of cancer, and walk through the valley of the shadow of death with a number of people who grace my life. But today, a quiet Sunday, I went looking for you. I found you in your latest ELK and it reminded me of your recent visit here in Charleston. It was all too short, but it was so wonderful for me. You restored my soul. Your writing, as it has been for as long as you have been scratching and punching out words, goes right to my soul. I think a piece of that soul will be sliced away if you should stop writing from that inner space of your soul. One final word from the third floor of my home here in Charleston. Here it is: I certainly do not want to wish my life away, but I will be so glad when Switzerland is in your past, and you can be back home here. I send love in abundance to you, my dear daughter.

  5. O Beth, I just noticed that my previous post did not go through. But, we will see about this one!! WE keep missing our skin to skin time, alternating our trips back to the United States. And, the primary reason for my sudden visit THIS time was…. clinical depression overcoming my loved ones. But all is well, now, and I am on my way back. Hope to see you, face to face, real soon. Here’s a HUG.

Plastic Can Be Good

Here’s today’s lesson, Interwebz: Procrastination will kick you square in the kayak every single time.

I'm having Barbie flashbacks.

Approximately eleventy weeks ago, SubWow tagged me with the Plastic Joy Award.  Long story short, I’m supposed to “list (and then explain your reasoning) 5 characters you’d like to do the horizontal whiplash with.”

…then she tagged a bevy of beauties that are all tragically witty and deranged including Wicked, Vapid, Andrea and Patty…who then tagged Kelly and Ryan…and suddenly I’m all out of fictional characters I’d like to scrog!

Ok not really.  I managed to come up with five more, but you need to know my options were a wee bit limited by the time I got around to writing my response.

That’s not an apology – just a disclaimer.

Here’s another disclaimer – if you are one of my siblings or contributed DNA to make my ass, you probably don’t want to read this.  That is also not an apology.

Beam me. STAT.

Sweet, swarthy Star Trek!  Jean Luc Picard definitely makes my list.  I’d let that man captain my vessel any day of the week.  That accent, that confidence, that ability to wear red polyester and not look like an employee of McDonalds – what couldn’t that man do?  Sure, Wesley Crusher was the character gracing the covers and centerfolds of my Tiger Beats, but I only had eyes for Jean Luc.  I can’t tell you how many adolescent day dreams involved him twisting his extended finger while booming in his authoritative voice, “ENGAGE.”

Who do? You do!

I always wanted to marry royalty, but no despot got me quite as tingly as Jareth the Goblin King from Labyrinth.  “I ask so little.  Just let me rule you, and you can have everything that you want.”  I’ve had far less appealing offers from plenty of long-haired, spandex-clad weirdos with even more eye makeup than his Royal Muppet-ness…and with far smaller cod pieces.  And he could sing.  And dance. Well mostly he just tossed muppets about while thrusting his ginormous cod piece in their faces but it WAS in time with the music which is more than I can say for those other previously mentioned long-haired, spandex-clad weirdos.  He was the babe with the power, no doubt.

Speaking of cod pieces…next up is the lovely King Mother-Fucking Henry as played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers on the Tudors.  Have you people seen this show?  I’ve only watched the first two seasons thus far but DAMN.  I’m almost embarrassed to admit I watched them because it is so full of THE SEX.  I’m talking crazy, sweaty, graphic, fluid-filled sex that makes you hit pause, make sure the front door is locked and the shades are drawn before you pour yourself a glass of wine, turn down the volume and move closer to the TV so your neighbors don’t hear all the skin slapping when you finally press play again.  Then rewind.  Then play.  Then rewind.  Then…you get the point.

Shit.  I still need two more that haven’t already been claimed….

Oh!  How about Tom Collins from Rent?  (As performed by Jesse L Martin from the original Broadway cast and the movie, of course.)

Pre movie release, I would bet I’m the only gal that ever squealed, “Oh my GOD TOM COLLINS!!!!” when stumbling upon a set for Law & Order.  Do you hear that deep, hypnotic voice?  Do you need a fresh pair of undies, too?  He’s erudite, liberal, generous, gracious and fine as hell.  Sure he’s gay, but I think our mutual affection for drag queens would be more than enough commonality to start a conversation and get the (AHEM!) ball rolling.

I think it's all about the ears.

Phew!  I thought I would have to list Mr Miyagi since I was completely blanking on a fifth character but fortunately I looked at another photo of David Bowie – which made me think of goblins – which made me think of how badly I need a pedicure – which made me think of hobbits – which reminded me of the smoking hot elf.  Crisis averted.  He is so pretty.  And I think we can all agree that he’s at least marginally sexier than Mr. Miyagi.

Want to share yours?  You know what to do!  Just for fun, I’m going to tag some of my new favorite bloggers and see what they come up with:

Not only do I now have a picture of naked dolls getting freaky on my site, I’m pretty sure I just passed on a pretty nasty STD to a whole mess of bloggers.  My work here is done.

Was that good for you, too? Then click here and follow my Facebook page. Or even better, join the mailing list. Free pony with every subscription. Probably.

    1. Clearly the bedazzling commune is going to need to start a whole other blog just to keep track of all the fictional characters we want to bang. I call dibs on the Snorks.

  1. As comment luv would suggest I am completely spent from this meme and am unable to think of anything other that fictional character sex…how about Spartacus from Blood and Sand…blood, sand and hot sweaty sex with ferocious fighters!

    Thankfully now I can also stew over cod pieces.
    .-= A Vapid BlondeÂ´s last blog ..Bow Chicka Wow Wow! =-.

  2. OMG. You would tag me moments after I publish a notice of hiatus. Geesh. And I’m totally with you on the Tudors. You described exactly what happens at my house.

    1. SADNESS. Oh wait, now that I read it I can only be happy for you. Sad for me, but very very happy for you. Just promise you’ll ping me if you find another giant schlong in the middle of the street, k?

  3. Awesome list! You have outdone yourself again! The rule did not say No repeats, but I guess a selfish bitch that you are, you don’t like sharing do you??!! 😉 LOL

    No wonder my husband was watching Tudors at the expense of sleep. Hmmm. I think we need to have a conversation…

    “Iâ€™m pretty sure I just passed on a pretty nasty STD to a whole mess of bloggers. My work here is done.” LUV LUV this! 😉
    .-= subWOWÂ´s last blog ..Rainbow =-.

    1. No, no, no…it’s just that I know where you ladies (term used loosely, but still not quite as loose as you ladies) have been and I don’t think I want to double dip. I stayed off the tour buses for a reason. Or something.

  4. Haha, Jareth! He totally could have made my list too. And after seeing the elfishness, it reminded me that I should have added Jack Sparrow to my list. Next time . . . .
    .-= AndreaÂ´s last blog .."Bad Things" =-.

  5. Damn you for taking Jonathan Rhys Meyers. I just started watching The Tudors a few weeks ago. I’ve got one more disc on season 2, I think. Sigh. Sex. And hot men with English accents. And sex. And accents.

    *excuse me a minute*

    Ok. I actually like this idea. I’ll be putting my list together shortly.

    Too fucking funny, btw.

Rhythm of the Night

What kind of person did you think you’d grow to be when you were younger? Successful? Happy? Confident? Creative? Motivated? Self-sufficient? Nurturing? Eloquent? Vain and self-obsessed?

Yup. I am now the type of person who owns one of these things and younger me is stupefied.

No, that isn’t a bizarre nipple clip. I mean…I guess you could use it that way? But you would have to have very sizeable nipples. And quite a bit of determination. And be into nipple clamps in the first place.

It’s also not a broken diaphragm.

One does wonder if LED diaphragms are a thing of the future. At least this one does. But this one also has a sort of flighty attention span and tends to wonder a lot of things. Like if future generations will find bags of unopened snack packs of Sunchips in landfills and use them for sustenance when all the crops stop growing.

It’s been so gray for SO long that Rocco finally got tired of me moving from room to room with this laptop trying to find enough light to do a ukulele video. So much so that he said the words I’d been dreading. “Do you want me to get you a light rig?”

Fun fact: you can’t complain about lighting in front of a theatre electrician. Otherwise, you end up with “gels” and “incandescent-replicating bulbs” and lots of equations shot at you about joules and watts and things that make your eyes glaze over.

We do not have the space, the budget, nor the ego (ok, maybe the ego) to accommodate a “light rig.” So in compromise, I promised to try a ring light AND HOLY SHIT. I can’t say it made a big difference on making a uke video, but READER…this is me having not showered in three days without a lick of make-up trying this damn light out…

So now I’m just going to put this thing on a selfie stick, wear a battery pack, and never leave the house again without my own “light rig.” It’s like digital makeup, rejuvenating serum, dry shampoo, and pore minimizer all in one.

The fountain of youth is an LED light ring, apparently. Suck it, Oprah.

And on that note, today’s Ukulele Fridays is brought to you by a song from my youth that wedged itself in my brain a few weeks ago and WOULD NOT GO AWAY. I had the grays AND the Debarges. Enjoy the earworm. And the weekend!

can this quilt be saved?

I made an ugly quilt. A really ugly quilt. I'm not kidding. Just look at this disaster:

I'm in the process of fixing it. Not sure why I thought that orange was a good idea. When the fabrics were all piled together like this I thought they were lovely:

Tell me about your ugliest quilt. Maybe we should start a flickr group to share all our ugly quilt glory?

Or maybe I'm the only one?

I sure hope not. What a confidence-crusher that would be...

  1. Hello.
    I love the orange!!
    If the centres were plain or all the same it would be awesome.

  2. Actually I love it like it is. It's quirky and very eye-catching, definitely not ugly! xo

  3. make the middle strips of fabric and wow.

  4. I think the orange is fine. I would take the outer navy off and give it more orange in fact. I think the outer diamonds distract the eye from the central feature fabric...

  5. I would try using the dark blue as a frame around the print squares...the teal may work, too.

  6. I like the quilt except the center squares....

Thanks so much for stopping by and reading a little bit about me and taking the time to comment! Have a wonderful day!

The Atlético de Madrid of Diego Pablo Simeone have reached their bottom after a decade established in the elite. They have lost the course and the identity that made them big. They are not that ugly team that used to win anymore. They have begun a decline towards the mediocrity.

The knock out from the Champions League in a group of Europa League level has just been the last straw. The proof that this team does not compete like they used to anymore. The confirmation that Simeone has lost control.

Atlético de Madrid have already paid in October for their multiple mistakes from all the areas in the club of an entity that has been poorly managed for too long, precisely at their best sporting moment ever. Because Simeone is the one who has taken them to their peak and now is also the one who is on his way to destroy it along with the board of directors.

Atlético are not recognizable neither on the field nor their aspect anymore. Atlético now only aim to accomplish their minimum goal, which is to qualify for the Champions League, as they can’t go beyond that, mostly because that is the way they have wanted it.

Atlético have multiple technical lacks in their roster that are subject to be even bigger (and more serious) based on a budget that was studied on being among the best 16 teams in Europe and that now has been unfulfilled while they have João Félix on the bench, who costed 120 million euros. What a waste of talent. They have already warned that they will have to undersell in January because the accounts do not add up. Same story as always.

Atlético have turned their shield into a logo, left the magic of ‘El Calderón Stadium’ and play as distorted as the stripes from their jersey, but overall they have acted like a big team against teams that have always been big. Because Atlético have never won without the commandments of Simeone, which are work and more work. Because Atlético loose against anyone without them.

The early knocked out in the Champions League is the biggest FAILURE of Simeone’s decade at Atlético. No excuses. And now they have (almost) an entire season ahead of them to think about everything that they could have done better, when they lost the course and if they can still change it.

I believe that Simeone’s time at Atlético has come to an end. He has already achieved everything he could have ever imagined except for the Champions League, but I fear that he will more than likely not lift it at this club no matter how much he tries.

The new roadmap for Atlético is based on saving the season with their minimum goal and to try to look to what they were in the past. Simeone can obviously decide when to leave, has he has earned it.

However, and even though I agree that his time at Atlético is over, I also think that people will realize how difficult it is what he has achieved at Atlético and even miss this “failures from the elite clubs”, as everyone should know that everything that Atlético have earned in the last decade is thanks to Simeone.

I am convinced that everything after him will be worst, but the symptoms of wear are clear. Simeone and Atlético have reached their point of no return.

Review: Prawn on the Lawn

Part fishmonger, part seafood bar – Prawn on the Lawn offers a unique and refreshing buying and dining experience. Situated just a few minutes walk from Highbury & Islington station in North London, I’d been keen to visit Prawn on the Lawn since I first read about it on Just Opened London.

With only enough space to cater for 8 diners, I’d tweeted them earlier that week to ask whether they were usually busy on a Saturday lunch time. Turns out they don’t get busy until half 1, so we made plans to have an early lunch. Arriving at 1pm, we were the second group to be seated at the back of the room on high chairs against the bar table.

I loved the interior of the place, it is afterall a fishmongers – so the floor were wet, the walls were lined with white tiles and the decoration followed a sea side theme!

prawn on the lawnThe food menu is written across two black boards on the wall, you can either order a selection of small tapas style dishes or larger sea food platters. We started with a soft drink each – one of my dining partners chose a glass of Gazpacho, which is a Spanish tomato & pepper drink. Often served as a warm soup, a cold glass of it goes very well with fish.

prawn on the lawn drinksWe decided to order 3 small dishes to share to start with, as we weren’t sure how much they’d fill us up. Prawn on the Lawn prepare all the food in the main room, so there no hiding away in a kitchen for these fishmongers. They have a microwave and a toaster, alongside a couple of sinks and plastic chopping boards. Really, its all they need to prepare the dishes they offer.

Most things were ideal for sharing between two as they came in pairs. As we were in a group of three we did a little negotiating and were able to share what we received.

First was the crab toast with watercress and homemade chilli jam (£7.50). Served on toasted sour dough bread the crab lay on a bed of peppery watercress. The crab meat was light in flavour and soft in texture but set alive with a squeeze of lemon and a hint of chilli jam.

2014-01-18 13.16.52The next thing to be neatly placed on the handing plate rack (super idea for a restaurant with minimal space!) was the one and only Prawn on the Lawn (£6.50). Also served on warm sour dough toast, prawn on the lawn consists of freshly made avocado spread and pawns with chilli and freshly chopped herbs. Drizzled in lime it was absolutely delicious!

2014-01-18 13.16.57-1 2014-01-18 13.17.48The third dish we sampled was the Scallop cevche with chilli, coriander and passionfruit (£9). This had to be my favourite. It was so delicate in texture but the flavours were powerful. Sour lime, spicy chilli, fragrant coriander and sweet passionfruit were such an awesome combination.

2014-01-18 13.25.06-1 2014-01-18 13.25.12

Once we’d finished off the first three dishes, we decided to order 1/2 pint of prawns with lime creme fraiche (£7.50) as we were still a bit peckish. The king prawns were gorgeous, for a start they were huge and peeling them away from their shells the fish meat was ready to dip into the lime creme fraiche – which by the way was amazing! The dish was so good, that we ordered more as well as requesting a basket of sour dough toast to mop up the rest of the delicious lime creme fraiche sauce.

2014-01-18 13.34.46-12014-01-18 14.01.51I absolutely loved the food at Prawn on the Lawn. I give our experience there 10 out of 10 – simply because I couldn’t fault anything. The dishes, the service, the quality, attention to detail, setting everything. Loved it. To top things off, the bill was even served in a sardine tin with a shimp sweet included!

New 2013 CA Vehicle Code Laws Range the Gamut

vehicle codeLots of new laws pertaining to vehicle operation in California. This one, in particular, seems largely unenforceable (nevermind absurd) to me:

“There are also two new laws related to recreational off-highway vehicles. One (AB
1595, Cook) defines an off-highway motor vehicle to include a recreational off-highway
vehicle (ROV) and establishes additional requirements governing its safe operation. The
other law (AB 1266, Cook), which goes into effect July 1, 2013, prohibits a passenger in
an ROV from riding in a seat location not designed and provided by the manufacturer. It
also prohibits operation of the ROV if the passenger is not seated with both feet on the
floorboard and able to grab the occupant handhold with the seat belt and shoulder belt or
safety harness fastened”

Christopher - Bocconi University

B Advanced Finance & Economics
Semester 2, 2018
Exchange opened my eyes to what's out there. We live on a. beautiful planet, and there is a lot out there to explore, so go and do it!

Academic experience

At Bocconi University in Milan, Italy I was fortunate enough to study a wide range of new and exciting finance subjects. These included: Equity Portfolio Management, Venture and Development Capital, Corporate Valuation, Corporate Banking, and International Project Finance.

Studying at Bocconi provided a unique academic experience. The teaching style was very practical, which was a perfect compliment to the academic backing I had obtained from UQ. Lecturers all had relevant industry experience, and assignments were based of real world companies and situations.

Overall, in the academic sense, I could not be happier with my exchange experience.

Personal experience

On a personal note, the most life changing experience of exchange had to be meeting people from all corners of the world. It sounds simple, however this truely broadens your mind and perspectives.

I stayed off campus in an AirBnb with a mate from UQ that was also doing exchange. This worked perfectly for us as we were friends beforehand, and living together didn't present any difficulties. The location was perfect, being situated 10 minutes walk from Bocconi.

We chose to do this because we had heard that the student residence was 30 minutes tram ride away form university. My advice for future students, if they are seeking their own private accomodation, is to try talk to former students so that they can recommend specific suburbs to live in. Also, not to leave this too late as a lot of the good locations fill up quickly.

Rent costed $5,000 for the four months in Bocconi. For food I budgeted 100EUR per week, which was more than enough, and then travel expenses during semester would have tended roughly to $3,000.

The biggest challenge on exchange was definitely arriving early before people had arrived. This was tough because you go from being surrounded by family in a place you know, to having no-one in an unfamiliar city.

However, I was able to overcome this by using the Bocconi Exchange student facebook page, and interacting with students through that. I found that there was a few people in a similar circumstance, and after the first night of meeting up with people I had an amazing group of friends.

Professional Development

From a professional aspect, exchange was brilliant. It showed my how much is out there is respect to finance and business. Further to this, comparing the size of companies to Australia, it was staggering seeing these giant companies, and how they operate.

I truely believe that this will assist me with my transition from university into the professional world, because I have had a Tate of what happens outside Australia. It is a massive world out there and I certainly recommend any student, especially them studying finance, to get out there and see it.

The highlight of my experience had to be the travel. Milan is located in a perfect place in Europe to travel very easily and cheaply. There are three airports around the city, which means flights through Milan are generally very cheap.

I was able to do extensive travel through Eastern Europe, and I even got uptown Finland where I was in the Arctic circle. This was certainly the highlight of my trip.

Top tips

My advice would be to just go with it. Try everything, put yourself in new, difference, and scary situations. It is all of these things that when your return home from exchange will have proven to be your best decisions.

Multi-Metering System

The Multi-Metering System (MD) series arose from the idea of combining the best features of our most popular products. We use the metering unit from our Pneumatic Seeders and combine it with different spreading methods. For us, the "two in one" principle means putting together excellent product features to make one exceptional seeder or spreader. This results in different types of Multi-Metering Systems - versatile products for diverse farming applications!

The versions of the Multi-Metering Systems

As standard, the Multi-Metering Systems are available in four versions. As an option, these four models can be variably upgraded and converted. For example, you can turn your Multi-Metering System with spreading disc into a pneumatic spreading device in just a few quick steps!

  • Multi-Metering System MDD: The "D" stands for "Disc".
    The seed is precisely metered by a seeding shaft and is then spread by a spreading disc. This model is particularly suitable for large working widths, e.g. up to 28 m for slug pellets.
  • Multi-Metering System MDP: The „P“ stands for „Pneumatic“.
    Its function and use are similar to those of a classic Pneumatic Seeder. The Multi-Metering System offers 6 outlets for a working width of up to 4.5 m.
  • Multi-Metering System MDG: The „G“ stands for „Gravitation“.
    Its function and use are similar to those of a Pneumatic Seeder, too. However, the metered material is only metered and then spread airless (without a fan, only through gravitation). This spreader is particularly suitable for granules which are metered into an existing airflow or can be spread based on gravity (e.g. mouse bait, silage additives, slug pellets, ...).

MDD 40 M1 | MDD 100 M1

Kategoriebild des Multidosierers MDD 100 M1

Combines the advantages of Pneumatic Seeders and Disc Spreaders

The Multi-Metering System MDD combines the advantages of a Pneumatic Seeder and a Disc Spreader: Precise metering is performed by a seeding shaft, the seed is spread using a spreading plate - optimal for slug pellets across large working widths and for spreading various catch crops. Due to the diverse assembly options as well as the simple and quick mounting and conversion on different soil tillage implements, the MDD can be used several times a year for a wide range of applications.

The extension to the PS series

In terms of the applications and functions, the Multi-Metering Systems of the MDP series are similar to Pneumatic Seeders of the PS series. Due to its compact construction and the varied mounting options, this type covers a wide range of applications. The MDP is very well suited for spreading all the usual small seeds, seed mixtures and slug pellets, as well as for reseeding the grassland.

Turkey welcomes autonomy law for Moro Muslims in the Philippines

12:06 PM | 28 Jul, 2018
Turkey welcomes autonomy law for Moro Muslims in the Philippines
ANKARA - Turkey has hailed a new law paving the way for the comprehensive autonomy of Moro Muslims in the Philippines, praising it as “historic.”

In a statement, the Foreign Ministry on Friday said that Turkey welcomes “the successful conclusion of the legislative process regarding the Bangsamoro Organic Law and its signing by the president of the Philippines, Rodrigo Roa Duterte.”

“We commend the efforts of the Philippine government, the Moro Islamic Liberation Front [MILF] and other stakeholders in finalizing this landmark legislation which aims to create a new political entity known as the ‘Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.’

“With the political will and vision of the relevant parties, a critical juncture in the peace process has been passed,” the statement said.

“This is a historic accomplishment,” to achieve “a just and lasting peace, stability and prosperity in Bangsamoro,” the ministry said.

“The Bangsamoro Organic Law also presents a valuable opportunity to tackle the root causes of violent extremism and terrorism and thus offers the promise of a better future for the Bangsamoro people,” said the statement.

“Turkey will continue to support the peace process as well as the social and economic development of the region in the period ahead.”

Muslim communities living on the southern Philippines’ Mindanao, Palawan and Sulu Archipelagos and other islands are called the Moro.

The law provides for increasing the legal and economic earnings of the Muslims in the region, giving more comprehensive autonomy to those living on the islands around Mindanao, which has a large Muslim population.

With the new regulation, a Bangsamoro -- a collective term for Filipino Muslims -- autonomous government will be established.

The central administration will hand over administrative power in Mindanao to the Bangsamoro government.

Battle of Kilometer 7

The Battle of Kilometer 7 occurred during the Chaco War between Bolivian forces commanded by Lt Col Bernardino Bilbao Rioja defending Fort Saavedra and Paraguayan forces under Col José Félix Estigarribia, from 7 November 1932 to February 1933, and ended with a Paraguayan retreat to the northeast towards Gondra, later to be the site of the Battle of Campo Jordán. The Paraguayan initiative, which had belonged to the Paraguayans since the beginning of the siege of Boquerón passed to the Bolivian army until the Second Battle of Nanawa in July.

Khamenei Reportedly Gives Tax-Exempt Status To Entities Under His Control

IRGC leaders meeting with Ali Khamenei, the Islamic Republic Leader. File photo

Iranian National Tax Administration has officially published the list of ten "Islamic" foundations and institutions under Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's supervision as tax exempt entities.

These are opaque corporations that dominate large portions of the country’s economy but are now legally exempt from taxation.

The official news agency (IRNA) reported that seven of these tax exempt entities receive seven trillion rials (roughly $166 million) from governmental funds annually.

The office of Iran's Supreme Leader had earlier ordered the taxation authority to make these corporations exempt from tax, reports from Tehran said. Two of these institutions belong to Khamenei's own office, dubbed the Leader’s Household in the Islamic Republic jargon. One is tasked with the publication of Khamenei's comments and sermons, and the other one is in charge of the Household’s economic affairs.

A day after this announcement, a deputy in the tax administration contradicted the initial news, saying that these entities do pay taxes. It is not clear if by this denial authorities wanted to dampen the negative impact on public opinion of powerful entities being exempted from taxes.

The Mostazafan Foundation (Foundation of the Oppressed), the Executive Headquarters of Imam's Directive, The Martyrs and Veterans Foundation, the Imam Khomeini Relief Committee, Islamic Propagation Organiztaion, the Islamic Propagation Office of Qom Seminary, Iran Islamic Revolution Housing Foundation, the Center for Services for Islamic Seminaries, Islamic Revolution Cultural Research Institute and Al-Mostafa Seminary for non-Iranian clerics, are listed as the entities that enjoy tax exemption.

In recent years, the tax exempt entities directly related to the Islamic Republic's Supreme Leader, have faced bitter criticism for not paying tax.

Some of the tax exempt organizations, including the Mostazafan Foundation, have maintained that they pay their due value added tax (VAT). However, critics have argued that VAT is ultimately paid by the foundations' clients and is different from the taxes annually paid by other financial and economic entities.

Economists have blamed these ten entities and the IRGC (also supervised by Khamenei) for a major part of the economic crisis that has nearly paralyzed Iran's economy and contributed to widespread social unrest during the past year.

The question of tax exempt institutions turned into a heated debate between the incumbent, Hassan Rouhani and his main challenger during the last presidential election in May 2017.

Rouhani tried to draw public attention to the opaque corporations that dominate large portions of the country’s economy but are legally exempt from taxation. These include companies controlled by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), monopolized state-owned Radio and TV network, The holy shrine in Mashad (managed by Rouhani's main challenger last year, mid-ranking cleric, Ebrahim Raeisi), a financial empire in Iran's second largest city, and the Executive Headquarters of Imam's Directive.

Apart from the tax issue, according to Tehran's outspoken MP, Ali Motahari, while many of the tax exempt institutes and so-called Islamic charities receive their budget from the government, they are not accountable to it.

Expressing his opposition to the activities of the Executive Headquarters of Imam's Directive, Motahari asserted in March 2016, "Such entities are responsible for the economic disruption across Iran."

Furthermore, Tehran city councillor Majid Farahani, has said that more than 40% of the country's economy is controlled by foundations and organizations that do not pay any tax, but, relying on their power and economic sway, win all national construction and development contracts in an unfair and unequal competition with the private sector.

Last December, widespread protests across Iran were ignited days after the Rouhani government budget was proposed, showing huge outlays for religious organizations and opaque corporations.

Wishes for health and recovery

Get well faster,
Be patient and don’t hurt.
After all, the disease will soon go away,
You’ll forget about her.

And while I’m so sad,
I feel pain in myself.
From the fact that you are sick,
It’s not good for me either.

Therefore, you get better,
You deal with the disease.
Get well soon
And so no more pain!

At Wikimania 2015

In the real world I am Liam Wyatt (the username is an anagram), this is my account as a volunteer. Australian but now living in Bologna, Italy. As an employee of the Wikimedia Foundation, I am the Program coordinator for WikiCite and community liaison Wikimedia Enterprise – editing as User:LWyatt (WMF).

Formerly the Europeana GLAMwiki Coordinator, elected member of the Funds Dissemination Committee, and chair of the Wikimania 2018 and 2019 program committee. In 2013-14 I was the person behind the National Library of Australia's social media. In June 2010 I had the role of "Volunteer Wikipedian in Residence" at the British Museum. You can read about this project at WP:GLAM/BM.

Before this I was a Project Officer at AustLII, formerly the Multimedia Coordinator at the Dictionary of Sydney. I was also the Vice President of Wikimedia Australia, was the convener of the GLAM-WIKI conferences in Australia and England; the Wikimedia @ Museums and the Web 2010 workshop; 2011 GLAMcamps in NYC and in Amsterdam; and the European GLAMwiki Coordinators meetings in Paris 2015, 2017, 2019.

In 2008 I wrote my thesis entitled "The Academic Lineage of Wikipedia: Connections and Disconnections in the Theory and Practice of History" at UNSW. This draws parallels between academic debates on such topics as Truth, Authorship and Freedom and our own similar debates. I believe that we can learn a great deal from these longstanding debates in professional historiography and, correspondingly, both academia should recognise our pedigree - there is much each can appreciate from the other. For this I was awarded the Degree - First Class and the "UNSW 2008 University Medal for history"!

In 2012 I undertook a Masters of Intellectual Property Law at Queensland University of Technology (co-sponsored by WIPO). My Thesis was entitled "Copyright and faithful reproductions of two-dimensional works of art" which I later turned into a submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission's Inquiry into Copyright and the Digital Economy. You can read the full submission here or download it from the ALRC's inquiry website.
