title: Vijay deverakonda turns deverasanta again to spend his christmas with 600 kids

text:
Telugu superstar Vijay Deverakonda, actor and producer who is famous for his works right since his debut film in Ravi Babu’s romantic comedy Nuvvila (2011) and created a milestone with his supporting role in the coming-of-age drama Yevade Subramanyam (2015) is a down-to-earth celebrity by heart.
The national sensation Vijay Deverakonda has donned his Santa Cap for the fourth time as he turned DeveraSanta to celebrate Christmas with kids from special homes for children.
The young hero shared a video recapping his Christmas celebrations from 2017 as he began the tradition on DeveraSanta, also giving an insight into the adorable and noble celebrations this year.
In 2017, Vijay turned Deverasanta by distributing gifts in JNTU Hyderabad as a token of gratitude for making a massive sized painting of Arjun Reddy. Post which the actor has made it an annual tradition to embrace his ‘DeveraSanta’ mode by spreading happiness amongst his fans and family.
In 2018, Vijay surprised his family on Christmas and urged his fans to spend time with their family by hugging them and saying ‘I Love You’ to them.
Last year the young hero made Christmas special for his fans by asking his followers across social media their wishlist and surprised his 50 ‘rowdy boys and girls’ from his fan-base with customised gifts that he had handpicked amongst their requests.
This year on Christmas, Vijay Deverakonda took DeveraSanta a step ahead and virtually interacted with 600 kids across 7 homes in and around Hyderabad.
The actor enjoyed quality time with the kids and his team shared ‘Rowdy’ goodies with the kids post the celebration.
Vijay Deverakonda ensured all safety protocols, sanitised the goods, his team also met the kids with utmost care and precautions.
Talking about the same, Vijay Deverakonda said, “This Deverasanta and We went to 7 homes in and around Hyderabad – To surprise 600 little angels 🙂
We sang with them, We danced with them, We laughed with them. ,
I virtually hugged and blew them kisses, Our Santas brought them Goodies and Rowdy clothes and We loved making their day and giving them this memory”
We would love to spread this love and cheer to a 1000 more kids, so send us details with Deverasanta of any homes you would like us to send new clothes to and we shall 🙂

Fire Danger Period
Each year the Country Fire Authority (CFA) declares a Fire Danger Period.
This is a period of time (up to six or seven months) during the warmest part of the year when the CFA restricts the use of fire in the community.
The Fire Danger Period in Campaspe began on Monday, 4 November 2024. This means we are in the Fire Danger Period.
The Fire Danger Period will end on Monday, 7 April 2025.
You can find further information on the CFA website.
When does the Fire Danger Period start?
This depends on the amount of rain, grassland curing rate and other local conditions. It is different for each municipality (council area).
The CFA will declare when Campaspe's Fire Danger Period will begin.
It may be as early as October in some council areas.
When does the Fire Danger Period end?
As above, this will depend on local conditions. The CFA will determine when the Fire Danger Period can end.
It may be as late as May in some council areas.
What restrictions are in place during the Fire Danger Period?
Once the Fire Danger Period has been declared, fire restrictions come into force. This means you cannot light a fire in the open air unless you have a permit or comply with certain requirements.
If you don't obtain a permit, you could be breaking the law and may be prosecuted.
Find out more about restrictions and what you can and can't do at the CFA website.
Can I burn off in Campaspe during the Fire Danger Period?
No. Burning off is prohibited on all properties, regardless of size, during the declared Fire Danger Period. Only in exceptional circumstances permits may be granted.

title: Nio et preview hints 2021 electric saloon

text:
Nio has revealed a new concept car that previews its first saloon model at the Shanghai motor show.
The ET Preview is said by insiders at the Chinese firm to be around 80% representative of an electric large saloon that’s due in production before 2021. It has a fastback bodystyle with an all-glass panoramic roof and alloy wheels inset with carbon fibre inserts for improved aerodynamics. Adaptive matrix LED headlights are said to mimic human eyes, while the rear lamps pulse to replicate a heartbeat.
Inside, the car uses electromechanical door latches instead of traditional handles, and includes Nio's NOMI digital assistant to help the driver with infotainment and navigation. The always-connected system uses voice recognition for hands-free operation.
The ET acts as a demonstration of Nio's high-density nickel-cobalt-manganese battery pack and 220kW electric motor powertrain, which the company claims will deliver a cruising range of up to 317 miles under China's NEDC-based tests.
It will use high-efficiency permanent magnet motors to drive its front wheels, in conjunction with high-performance induction motors at the rear. It is understood to be closely related to the ES6 SUV.
Nio has solely made SUVs to this point, after launching with the limited-edition EP9 electric hypercar.
The ES6 will enter production this June, joining the Audi Q7-sized Nio ES8 in Nio’s range. It gets an NEDC range of 317 miles from its 84kWh battery pack.
The ET Preview was penned by the original BMW i design team, including exterior designer Kris Tomasson. It was designed in Munich, Germany but is currently planned for sale only in China. Nio is yet to disclose any plans for exporting models in the future.

The New Terminal (Beta) Is Now in JetBrains IDEs
TL;DR: The new terminal (Beta) is now in JetBrains IDEs and will be available in the new UI starting from the 2024.1 version of the IDEs. You can switch between the old and new terminal in Settings/Preferences | Tools | Terminal | Enable New Terminal. Currently, it supports only Bash, Zsh, and PowerShell, with other shells in development. This blog post covers the architectural and visual changes and outlines our plans.
Software developers use terminals for a variety of tasks. Though it’s a basic element of programming, the convenience of a terminal lies in its ability to provide a universal way of managing tasks without needing to be proficient in all UI elements. Modern solutions, on the other hand, come with numerous productivity enhancements, such as smart layouts for the command prompt and output, command completion with a list of options, AI-powered functions, and many others.
Aiming to combine both basic and advanced capabilities, the new terminal is a familiar tool presented in a fresh way and with an expanded set of features. Our goals are to preserve the functionality of working in a terminal, enhance convenience and simplicity, and address long-standing issues. This article will guide you through the changes to the terminal in JetBrains IDEs and our plans for the future.
The new terminal aligns with the look and feel of the new UI and is available in all JetBrains IDEs starting from version 2024.1. The primary visual distinction of the new terminal is that each command is now presented in a separate block. This helps you quickly locate the start and end of each command, enhancing the readability of the output. This change brings other new capabilities, such as easy navigation between blocks using arrows and switching between the prompt and output using the ⌘↑ / ⌘↓(macOS) and Ctrl+↑ / Ctrl+↓ (Windows and Linux) shortcuts.
Another significant change is the command completion feature that supports commands, paths, arguments, and options, aimed at simplifying command entry.
A new, convenient command history has been added, which allows for filtering and makes it easier to navigate through recently executed commands. The UX designers have also revamped the color scheme – the palette is now aesthetically pleasing and easy to read.
The new terminal is not just visual changes, but a new architecture that made these changes possible. Here are the most notable changes:
We took full control over the prompt area of the terminal. You can now use editor actions and move the cursor with the mouse during command input. At this stage, some shell shortcuts either do not work or behave incorrectly. We are working to address these issues.
We reworked command completion that integrates all of the IDE’s knowledge into the suggestions. Since we are still working on this update, some completion options may not be available or they may differ from shell-based completion.
We added our own command prompt, which shows the current directory, Git branch, Python virtual environment, and Anaconda environment. This is intended to provide a rich, modern command prompt even if it is not configured in a shell. We understand that some prefer having the same prompt as in the system terminal, and we are working on an option to allow this.
How to enable the new terminal
Starting from version 2024.1, when the Terminal tool window is opened for the first time, you will see a promotional window for the new terminal. After that, you can switch between the old and new terminal using the three dots menu in the upper right corner of your Terminal tool window or via Settings/Preferences | Tools | Terminal | Enable New Terminal.
At the moment, we only support a limited set of shells: Zsh, Bash, and PowerShell. If you use any other shell, you will see the old terminal even if the new setting is enabled.
Currently, we’ve only taken the first step in overhauling the terminal, and there’s much more work ahead. Our immediate focus is on improving the stability of the new terminal and refining its current behavior.
We plan to introduce more terminal customization options (fonts, spacing, etc.), improve command completion, add the ability to switch between the built-in and shell prompt, introduce context actions for blocks, and streamline tab management in the terminal. Additionally, we have plans to implement useful AI capabilities, such as assisting in command typing or explaining the obtained results.
How to provide feedback
The new JetBrains IDE terminal, which will be made available from v2024.1, is in Beta and currently undergoing changes and improvements. At this stage, your feedback is crucial to us. Our goal is that the new terminal will have the same capabilities as the old one, while offering a host of beneficial new features.
As we are currently in the development process, we acknowledge that some issues may arise when interacting with the new terminal. Please report any issues on YouTrack. Below you can find several links to familiarize yourself with known issues:
We plan to add a survey in the IDE where you can share your impressions of the new terminal. We would also be grateful for any feedback in the comments section below. Thank you!

RMC Personnel Training with the Thomas Splint |
By James Patton
The Thomas splint is an orthopedic appliance used to stabilize a fractured leg to minimize further damage, pain, and bleeding during transportation to a surgical facility.
It was developed in 1875 by the Welsh physician Hugh Owen Thomas (1834–1891), who is known as the pioneer in Britain in orthopedic surgery. Although Thomas didn’t actually make one of these devices himself, he described it in his book entitled Diseases of the Hip, Knee and Ankle Joints with Their Deformities, Treated by a New and Efficient Method, published in 1876. Thomas was a homeopathic physician and believed that the body could heal itself if put in a state of rest.
The device described by Thomas consisted of a metal ring which was wrapped in leather and fitted around the top of the leg at the groin, then attached by two cylindrical metal rods to another ring that was fastened around the ankle. A simpler design was also used in which the rods and ankle ring were replaced by a single piece of metal bent in a u-shape that hooked around the boot and fastened to the proximal ring. At least two adjustable straps of leather would be tightened around the long rods to secure the leg to the splint. In battlefield situations these straps were often supplemented by roll puttees. A distal cross piece made of bent metal could be attached to the rods to suspend the leg in the air, and at times there was also a proximal cross piece to achieve full suspension. The overall effect of the Thomas splint is that longitudinal tension is applied to the leg, which tends to align and straighten it.
Hugh Thomas and Robert Jones |
In 1915, Thomas’s nephew Sir Robert Jones, MD (1857–1933), himself a prominent early orthopedist, was mobilized into the Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC). Upon observing what was happening at the front, he advocated the introduction of the Thomas splint as an aid in the transport of patients. He maintained that this practice would greatly reduce the aggravation of the injury, infection, and pain that was resulting from the inevitable rough handling of the wounded prior to their arrival at a Casualty Clearing Station. He also noted that leaving the affected limb in the splint could allow a surgeon 360 °-access to the leg.
The RAMC quickly adopted the device, and by 1918 it was noted that the mortality rate from compound fractures of the femur had been reduced from 87 percent to 8 percent, although other improvements in treatment protocols and procedures also contributed to this result.
Later, the Pearson attachment was added to the splint. This attaches to the splint at the knee and enables the balanced suspension of the leg.
Although over the years changes have been made to the design of the device, primarily being the substitution of modern materials, the Thomas splint is still in use today. I’ve been told that the RAMC Field Orthopedic Kit that is issued today contains one Thomas splint.

text: Accrual basis, open up the future of public finance The government has adopted accrual basis accounting system to operate government’s finance more efficiently and to increase transparency of financial information. As a result, 1.The management system for fiscal soundness has changed. 2.The government’s hidden assets have been found. 3.The government’s financial condition can be understood easily through financial statements. 4.The various indices of government can be compared to the indices of other countries. we have obtained the desired outcome. 5th Anniversary: Achievements and tasks (to complete) I’ve heard of the word “accrual basis” many times, and I wonder what it really means and how it is utilized. One of the advantages of adopting accrual accounting is to identify the sizes of assets and liabilities at a glance. Previously, only those debts incurred from contracts were managed. However, as liabilities which are highly likely to be paid(provisions) are also considered liabilities currently, it has gotten more efficient to manage the government’s financial condition. The examples of the liabilities include pension liabilities for public officials and professional soldiers. Since these liabilities began to be recognized, the pension reform has been triggered. Likewise, accrual basis government accounting will play a role to raise a red-flag in times of risky situations. The limitations of accrual basis information include low accessibility and low degree of understanding for citizens due to the complexity of financial statements. In addition, the use of information, such as performance evaluation for the businesses of government departments, is not very frequent. The future improvement directions are (1) internally, to strengthen the education of pubic officials so that they utilize the information more actively and (2) externally, it is necessary to provide tailored information considering the level of intelligence, the demand, and the utilization of information users. Especially, I think it is necessary to use tables, figures, etc., so that citizens understand the government’s financial information better. Domestically, the Statistics Korea (KOSTAT) provides various services, including the Micro Data Integration Service, in order to enable the citizens to understand statistics more easily and conveniently. Externally, the KOSTAT tries to maintain the credibility of information for international comparison purposes. It is also necessary to increase the use of government accounting information by making the information easy to understand. Moreover, it is essential to put much efforts to maintain credibility and objectivity through international comparisons as well as foreign information exchanges. After all, these processes will increase accounting transparency. Although we have made many results from the adoption of accrual basis government accounting for a short period of time, there are still many tasks to be done. We will try hard to make more people utilize the information and make fiscal management more efficient. Thank you.

title: Some words sound lovelier than others and learning a new language can teach you why

text:
When we listen to a foreign language, we may hear sounds which do not exist in our mother tongue, and may sound different from anything we have ever heard before. The first time we hear something new, a foreign sound or word—even an unknown word in our own languages—something in it may provoke delight or revulsion.
Often with familiar words, it’s almost impossible to simply look at one and separate it from its meaning. Words like “putrid” or “disgusting” have nasty connotations already built in to our subconscious and therefore meaning will play a key role.
However, when we learn a new language, we encounter words free of associations and connotations in our mind. This presents an opportunity for researchers to determine what’s in a word itself that the mind finds pleasing or unpleasant.
From a very young age, everyone is exposed to music and to language, and every culture has its local variants of both. We all perceive words in different ways. How we feel about different words, whether we like the sound of some of them more than others, will depend mostly on what experiences in our life we attach to them and how people in our community use those words.
The British linguist David Crystal conducted some research on phonaesthetics, the study of what makes certain sounds beautiful, and noted that the most popular words have positive connotations—no surprises there. But what’s interesting is what these words have in common: two or three syllables, short vowels, easy-to-produce consonantal sounds such as /l/, /s/ and /m/.
None of these sounds—or “phonemes”—require much energy or effort to be pronounced and so evoke natural and peaceful tones. Some examples are: autumn, melody, lullaby, velvet, luminous, tranquil, marigold, whisper, gossamer, caress.
For centuries, the repetition of certain sounds in literature has been popular in poetry, often with the aim of mimicking nature to elicit moods and feelings. Both in English and Spanish poems, words where /s/ is a prominent sound symbolize the hissing sound of the the wind or the sea, and words with nasal sounds like /m/ are soothing and mellow, like a soft murmur.
Separating meaning from words
In the English language, the very same word will sound differently when pronounced by speakers of different areas, within the UK and abroad. Geography not only affects the way a word sounds but also its meaning—like “close”, which describes proximity and the feeling in the air immediately before a storm.
When we hear a word, the way we perceive it will be influenced not only by denotation but also by connotation. Understandably, words associated with positive experiences will be perceived as pleasing.
However, the way our experiences influence what words we like remains fluid throughout life. For the last 20 years or so, I have witnessed this with my Spanish beginner students.
If we effectively “conquer” a word, it becomes a word we like to say and hear. Sounds that at the start of the course British students struggled with – /θ/, /x/, /ɲ/, the rolled /r/ and /ʧ/—because they are scarce or do not exist in their mother tongue, became more popular by the end of the year.
There are also words which students used to find challenging at the start of their course but after some months have grown confident using and pronouncing with the kind of pride that arises from knowledge, hard work, and learning, regardless of the word’s connotations. This is particularly striking in the example of “desafortunadamente.” This means “unfortunately” in Spanish. Desafortunadamente therefore has obvious negative connotations, but learners of a new language are more likely to experience disassociation with a word from its meaning, which rarely happens in your mother tongue. Speakers of a new language can therefore enjoy a word on its own merits, disregarding its connotations.
When I teach pronunciation and intonation to Spanish beginners, I use the word “jeringuilla” as an example. It has all the makings of a word our brains love—syllables that flow, short vocalic sounds, /n/ and the strong Spanish /x/, which offers a worthy challenge for a native English speaker—but imagine their surprise when they learn it actually means “syringe”…

title: Are apple jacks vegan

text:
The tastiness of Apple Jacks can be hard to pass up. Whether as breakfast food or a midday snack, they are a fun option. But for those who follow a vegan lifestyle, are Apple Jacks vegan?
No, Apple Jacks are not vegan. While many of the ingredients in Apple Jacks are vegan, some are not. The information below will better help you understand what components are acceptable for a vegan diet and which ones aren’t.
As is the case in all areas of life, some abide by vegan standards more strongly than others. Because of that, some may consider Apple Jacks to be vegan because the ingredients that would disqualify the cereal are in a gray area when it comes to the vegan diet.
Apple Jacks Ingredients
Most of the ingredients contained in Apple Jacks are vegan. However, several fall into an area that those who are very strict in veganism do not consume. Therefore, while eating and enjoying Apple Jacks is okay for some vegans, it isn’t for all.
Let’s take a deeper look at each ingredient in the Apple Jacks cereal.
Corn Flour Blend
The cornflour blend that Apple Jacks has includes whole-grain yellow corn flour and yellow corn flour. Both of these items are safe for vegans to consume and are part of several different types of cereals.
One of the ingredients in Apple Jacks that is safe for vegans is vegetable oil. As one of the items on the acceptable list, vegetable oil contains a combination of:
- Hydrogenated coconut
Wheat Flour, Whole Grain Oat Flour, Modified Food Starch
These ingredients contribute to the substance of the cereal shape. All of the components that bring the famous appearance to fruition are considered acceptable for vegans.
Sugar is one of the gray areas when it comes to ingredients that are acceptable for vegans to consume. The reason for this being in the gray area is due to the additives within many types of sugars sold at stores.
While some sugars, typically those of the organic variety, do not have this additive, others get their bright white color because of an ingredient called bone char. Bone char isn’t accepted across the board in veganism.
The problem with sugar is that you can’t always tell if bone char is included in the specific recipe and blend. Therefore, it can be hit or miss as to whether or not that particular sugar contained in the Apple Jacks recipe contains the bone char or not.
Yellow 6, Yellow 5, Red 40, Blue 1
Yellow 6, Yellow 5, Red 40, and Blue 1 dyes contribute to the flavor of Apple Jacks. All of them are artificial.
While artificial flavors are not typically an issue in and of itself because they are created without animal byproducts, recent years have seen a spike in the testing of artificial ingredients on animals.
With this change, many vegans have turned away from being tolerant of the utilization of artificial ingredients. The main problem lies in that, like sugar, it is not always possible to know if the included artificial flavors have been ones that have been tested on with animals.
Those who do not follow vegan standards for their daily diet often don’t think twice about adding Vitamin D3 to their food. However, many vegans take issue with incorporating lanolin in the Vitamin D3 used in cereals.
Lanolin is derived from sheep and is the grease and protective barrier used within sheep’s wool. Because of that, it is considered an animal byproduct.
However, the issue lies in the same arena as artificial flavor and sugar. While lanolin is used in Vitamin D3 for cereal, companies don’t always add it to other foods. Therefore, you don’t know if you are getting the lanolin or not.
Frequently Asked Questions
Many questions can come up when considering which foods are safe to eat while participating in a vegan lifestyle. Below are some of the most frequent.
Are there pure vegan versions of Apple Jacks?
No, there is no separate version of Apple Jacks that is entirely vegan. However, other brands of cereal have products similar to Apple Jacks. One of the closest in similarity is Cascadian Farm Organic Fruitful O’s.
Are Apple Jacks healthy?
While healthier options are available for a bowl of breakfast cereal or daytime snack, some are much worse than Apple Jacks. While Apple Jacks aren’t healthy, they aren’t the worst choice.
Can vegans eat Apple Jacks?
Vegans eating Apple Jacks will be dependent on how strict they are with their vegan lifestyle. When you consume questionable ingredients, you aren’t always 100% sure that you are getting the correct type of sugar, flavor, or vitamin D3.
For those who are strict in their veganism following, it wouldn’t be acceptable to consume a product without knowing for sure. However, if you are a more lenient vegan, having Apple Jacks with the gray area elements may not be an issue.
Are Apple Jacks dairy-free?
Yes, Apple Jacks are dairy-free. They don’t contain any type of milk, lactose, or dairy ingredients.
Are Apple Jacks gluten-free?
No, Apple Jacks are not gluten-free. They contain several different types of gluten-inclusive ingredients.
Can vegetarians eat Apple Jacks?
As is the case for vegans, this will depend on how strict the vegetarian is in their dietary lifestyle. While some vegetarians are okay with consuming Apple Jacks, others feel that it violates the boundaries that have been established ingredient-wise.
Many people worldwide love Apple Jacks, and because of such, they can be hard to pass up. You can enjoy this cereal as breakfast food or a midday snack. So for those who follow a vegan lifestyle, are Apple Jacks vegan?
Apple Jacks are not considered vegan. However, there are many ingredients contained in Apple Jacks that are vegan. The elements within Apple Jacks that are not explicitly vegan are considered part of a gray area, and it is divided between the community whether the cereal is appropriate to consume as a vegan or not.

title: Federal trade commission orders accessibe to pay %241m for misleading claims relating to automated website accessibility remediation tool

text:
Seyfarth Synopsis: The FTC issued a Decision and Order prohibiting accessibility plug-in/Widget vendor AccessiBe from making misleading claims and to pay $1 million.
As the number of website accessibility lawsuit filings have exceeded 2,200 per year since 2018, so too has the list of companies offering solutions for making websites accessible to users who are blind or have other disabilities. Because the process of auditing a website for accessibility issues and then remediating them by making actual changes to the source code can be expensive and time consuming, a number of businesses have emerged with quick and inexpensive "solutions" using overlays, widgets or plug-ins that claim to automatically make websites accessible to individuals with disabilities. The actual efficacy of these methods or tools, as well as the related marketing claims of these vendors, have been the topic of heated debate in the digital accessibility community in recent years. Many businesses – lured by the promise of an inexpensive solution – have paid for these automated accessibility tools even while some plaintiffs and advocacy groups insist that they do not work.
One of the most visible vendors in this space is accessiBe, which was the subject of a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) investigation. On April 21, 2025, the FTC issued a Decision and Order (the "Order") which, among other things, orders accessiBe to pay $1M and prohibits it from representing that its automated products can make any website compliant, or ensure continued compliance, with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), unless it has the evidence to support its claims. The Order also prohibits accessiBe from misrepresenting that statements in reviews, blog posts, or articles about its automated products are independent opinions by impartial users or organizations providing objective information. The Order remains in effect for twenty (20) years, during which time accessiBe must file annual compliance reports with the FTC.
This development confirms our longstanding belief that businesses need to consult with counsel with experience in digital accessibility before investing in an accessibility solution, or hiring an accessibility consultant.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.

What is Chai?
Who uses Chai?
Here are some stack decisions, common use cases and reviews by companies and developers who chose Chai in their tech stack.
Needs advice on code coverage tool in Node.js/ExpressJS with External API Testing Framework
I have a web application with the backend developed using Node.js and Express.js. The backend server is in one directory, and I have a separate API testing framework, made using SuperTest, Mocha, and Chai, in another directory. The testing framework pings the API, retrieves responses, and performs validations.
I'm currently looking for a code coverage tool that can accurately measure the code coverage of my backend code when triggered by the API testing framework. I've tried using Istanbul and NYC with instrumented code, but the results are not as expected.
Could you please recommend a reliable code coverage tool or suggest an approach to effectively measure the code coverage of my Node.js/Express.js backend code in this setup?
For our internal team and collaboration panel we use Nuxt.js (with TypeScript that is transpiled into ES6), Webpack and npm. We enjoy the opinionated nature of Nuxt.js over vanilla Vue.js, as we would end up using all of the components Nuxt.js incorporates anyways and we can adhere to the conventions setup by the Nuxt.js project, which allows us to get better support in case we run into any dead ends. Webpack allows us to create reproducable builds and also debug our application with hot reloads, which greately increased the pace at which we are able to perform and test changes. We also incorporated a lot of testing (ESLint, Chai, Jasmine, Nightwatchjs) into our pipelines and can trigger those jobs through GitLab CI. All packages are fetched through npm, so that we can keep our git repositories slim and are notified of new updates aswell as reported security flaws.

title: Leadership shakeup at stellantis carlos tavares resigns amid discontent

text:
In a surprising turn of events, Carlos Tavares, the CEO of Stellantis, has resigned, marking a significant shift in the leadership of one of the world’s largest automotive manufacturers. The announcement was made by the company on a Sunday, with immediate effect. This unexpected resignation is reportedly a result of “different views” between Tavares and the board of directors. Stellantis, home to numerous brands including Jeep, Dodge, and Peugeot, stated that it has begun the process of selecting a new CEO, anticipating the appointment to be made in the first half of the following year.
The abrupt nature of Tavares’ exit raises eyebrows, particularly given the company’s previously announced plans for his retirement in 2026. This shift in strategic direction came when the board highlighted a misalignment between Tavares and themselves, suggesting underlying issues that have been brewing for some time. The company’s chairman, John Elkann, will lead an interim executive committee as Stellantis navigates this period of transition, demonstrating a concerted effort to stabilize operations amidst leadership uncertainty.
Despite Tavares’ impressive track record since taking the helm during the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Groupe in 2021, his leadership has not been without controversy. Revered for orchestrating the merger and driving profitability, he has faced mounting pressure following the company’s disappointing financial performance in 2024. Misjudgments in the handling of the U.S. market, which serves as a critical revenue source, coupled with a failure to introduce compelling new products, have exacerbated the situation.
Throughout this year, Stellantis revised its annual guidance, hinting at further distress within the company, including a staggering 27% decrease in third-quarter net revenues. The dip has been reflected in the market, with shares sliding approximately 43%, signaling investor concerns about the company’s long-term viability under Tavares’ management. These results stand in stark contrast to the high expectations set during the merger, raising questions about the sustainability of Stellantis’ current strategy.
Tavares was particularly known for prioritizing aggressive cost-cutting measures, which included a self-reported reduction of €8.4 billion ($9 billion) from the merger. While these initiatives were intended to strengthen Stellantis’ financial position, they have also drawn significant criticism. Executives have described the intensity of these cuts as grueling, pointing to a negative impact on operational functionality within the U.S. market. Many employees expressed concern that such extreme measures risk compromising the company’s capacity to effectively compete in a rapidly changing industry landscape.
Tavares publicly defended the cost-cutting strategy, dismissing the idea that it was a scapegoat for the company’s performance failures. However, it is hard to overlook the discontent among the workforce and the UAW, which has voiced its frustrations over layoffs and the increasingly strained dynamics with management. The company’s decision to downsize its workforce by approximately 15.5% has further fueled tensions, especially in a climate where labor unions demand greater protections and support for workers.
Looking Ahead: Uncertainty and Change
As Stellantis embarks on the search for a new CEO, the automotive industry watches closely to see how the company plans to redefine its strategy amid these challenges. With the interim leadership of John Elkann, the company has an opportunity to reassess its priorities and align its goals with a vision that addresses both financial performance and employee well-being.
The resignation of Carlos Tavares serves as a reminder of the volatile nature of executive leadership within a rapidly evolving market. The industry is under immense pressure to innovate and adapt to changing consumer preferences, making effective leadership more crucial than ever. Whether Stellantis can regain its footing and restore confidence in its strategic direction remains to be seen. The upcoming months will undoubtedly be critical as the company seeks to stabilize itself while navigating the complexities of an uncertain market and a potentially transformative leadership shift.

Cavaliers, as you know - we will be creating a true middle school next year when we bring our 6th grade up to join our 7th and 8th grade at our current JH/HS campus. We are excited - we truly believe this is what is best for the development of our students. Please take a few moments to read this fantastic article written for our Cavalcade by Paige Schmidt, one of our Journalism staff:
MIDDLE SCHOOL, NOT JUNIOR HIGH
Roncalli reorganizes for educational, space benefits
By Paige Schmidt
In an effort to do what’s best for students, better serve their educational needs, and meet the mission statement, ACSS will reconfigure to include a sixth through eighth grade middle school at the high school building.
This upcoming modification will be an adjustment for many people, but there is also a great deal of support and excitement.
Space constraints, due to large numbers of incoming kindergarten students, sparked the original need for change.
“We have been on-boarding kindergarten classes that are 50 or above which has required us to create three sections for those kindergarten classes,” ACSS President Tim Weisz said. “We were looking for the proper space in our buildings, so one of the solutions is that we move the second grade up to the elementary building and the sixth graders up to the high school building.”
Although the initial reason for the plan was the need for space and the desire to grow Roncalli, there has also been significant research that shows it will benefit students, especially the moving grades and those surrounding them. Having a middle school would allow for the sixth, seventh, and eighth graders to be eased into the high school level learning more gradually.
“The middle school concept really works to prepare them [6-8 graders] at a slower pace to be ready for high school,” Principal Paula Florey said. “Right now, it’s more like a mini high school, and we expect a lot out of our seventh and eighth graders.”
Because of how monumental this change is, there are a few concerns that have surfaced.
“I think, from what I have heard, the hesitancy with bringing the sixth graders up is that they will be treated like the seventh and eighth graders now, and they don’t think they are mature enough yet for that,” Florey said. “But they have to understand that it is a totally different concept.”
Despite the slight unease, there are many teachers that have expressed their approval and enthusiasm surrounding the middle school.
“I would be excited to have the 6th grade join us,” religion teacher Cherie Shishnia said. “I think it would be good to give the 6th, 7th, and 8th graders more opportunities and to focus on them as a group separate from the high school by focusing specifically on their needs and by providing age-appropriate activities along with a tailored middle school education system.”

Key Ingredients for Our Creamy Pumpkin Cheesecake
We’re on a mission to make the best easy pumpkin cheesecake. We focus on a few key ingredients to get that creamy texture and rich flavor. Let’s dive into these essential elements.
Understanding the Role of Cream Cheese
Cream cheese is the heart of our creamy pumpkin cheesecake. It gives the cheesecake its smooth texture and rich taste. Choosing high-quality cream cheese is key. It makes the cheesecake feel delightful in your mouth.
Choosing the Perfect Pumpkin Puree
The pumpkin puree you pick is important. We suggest canned pumpkin puree for ease and consistency. But, roasting your own pumpkin can add a fresh taste. Just remember, avoid pumpkin pie filling because it has added sugars and spices.
Spices That Make a Difference
Our easy pumpkin cheesecake needs warm spices to shine. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger create a wonderful aroma. Each spice adds something special, making the cheesecake a cozy autumn treat.
Step-by-Step Guide to Making Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake
Our homemade pumpkin cheesecake starts with a tasty graham cracker crust. This crust adds flavor and a nice crunch. Then, we make the filling, aiming for a smooth and rich texture.
Preparing the Crust
To begin, we gather our crust ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup of granulated sugar
- ¾ cup of unsalted butter, melted
Mix the graham cracker crumbs and sugar in a bowl. Add the melted butter slowly, until it looks like wet sand. Press it into a springform pan to make an even layer. A good crust is key for any quick dessert, like our pumpkin cheesecake.
Making the Filling
With the crust ready, we move on to the filling. Here’s what we need:
- 24 ounces of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 cup of pumpkin puree
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon of pumpkin spice
Beat the cream cheese with sugar until it’s smooth. Then, add the pumpkin puree, eggs one at a time, and mix well. Add vanilla extract and pumpkin spice for a perfect blend. It’s important not to over-beat to keep the texture velvety. Our filling is now ready, capturing the essence of homemade pumpkin cheesecake.
Tips to Achieve a No-Crack Cheesecake
Making a no-crack cheesecake is a fun task, perfect for the holiday season. We’ve found key tips to make sure your cheesecake turns out smooth and perfect every time.
First, make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature. Cold ingredients can mix unevenly, leading to air bubbles and cracks. Softened cream cheese, eggs, and other ingredients mix better, resulting in a smooth batter.
Also, watch the baking time closely. Baking too long can cause cracks. Bake until the center is slightly jiggly. It will set as it cools.
Cooling the cheesecake slowly is crucial. Quick temperature changes can stress the cheesecake, causing cracks. After baking, turn off the oven and let it cool in the oven for an hour. This keeps the temperature even.
Moisture is key for a no-crack cheesecake. Baking in a water bath helps it bake evenly and prevents cracks. You can wrap the pan in aluminum foil to keep water out.
By following these tips, you can make a beautiful, smooth no-crack cheesecake. It will surely impress your friends and family during the holidays.
Baking Instructions for Perfect Results
For our easy pumpkin cheesecake, following precise baking instructions is key. It ensures a delightful and creamy texture. The right temperature and baking techniques make it a hit with everyone.
Setting the Oven Temperature
We suggest preheating the oven to 325°F for the best results. This temperature helps the cheesecake bake evenly. It also reduces the chance of cracks, making the texture smooth and creamy.
Understanding Water Bath Techniques
A water bath is crucial for our easy pumpkin cheesecake. It involves placing the cheesecake pan in a larger dish filled with hot water. This method cooks the cheesecake evenly, keeping it moist and creamy.
Baking Aspect | Importance | Tips |
Oven Temperature | Even baking, prevents cracking | Use an oven thermometer to verify |
Water Bath | Maintains moisture, creamy texture | Wrap the pan with foil to prevent water leaks |
Cooling and Storing Your Pumpkin Cheesecake
Cooling and storing your homemade pumpkin cheesecake right is key to enjoying it fully. Let it cool in the pan for about an hour after baking. This slow cooling helps avoid cracks and keeps the cheesecake creamy.
Then, move the cheesecake to the fridge. Cover it loosely with plastic wrap once it’s cool. This stops moisture from making the crust soggy and the filling runny. Chill it for at least four hours, or better yet, overnight, to let the flavors meld.
To store cheesecake, use an airtight container or wrap it tightly in plastic. This keeps it fresh for up to a week. For longer, freeze it. Cut into slices, wrap each in plastic, and then bag them. This way, you can enjoy a slice whenever you want.
Method | Time | Notes |
Cool in pan | 1 hour | Prevents cracks with gradual cooling. |
Refrigerate | 4 hours (preferably overnight) | Enhances flavor and texture. |
Airtight storage | Up to 1 week | Keeps cheesecake fresh. |
Freezing | Up to 3 months | Wrap slices individually for easy access. |
By cooling and storing your cheesecake correctly, every bite will stay fresh and tasty. It’s ready to be enjoyed whenever you want.

title: Two adults traveling may june days package think dates 25658

If you have a choice, a few weeks earlier would be better in terms of crowds and likely weather, but these dates aren't bad.
Considering that Monday, May 25 is Memorial day, this is the beginning of busier summer season, so on average it will be somewhat crowded, but not as bad as peak holiday times like 4th of July and christmas week. Although weather is always difficult to predict, on average May tends to be drier than June (which is the rainiest season), and the high temps will average around 88-90 as you approach June. Fortunately in summer the rains tend to be relatively short. Definitely keep track of the weather online as you get very close to your travel date. Please note that 10-day forecasts tend to not be very accurate, wait until you are within a day or two of your departure date, and re-check when you are there as much as possible. If rain is forecasted, I highly recommend you bring some rain ponchos/jackets.
Overall, I think Pop Century is a great choice for a Value Resort for 21 year-olds. The themeing is a bit more adult than the All-Star Resorts, and you are less likely (it still could happen) to have large groups (bands, football teams, etc.) staying at this resort.
The transportation is very simple from Pop Century -- the only option is bus, and there is only one central area to wait for the buses. In general the wait for a bus during peak times shouldn't exceed 20 minutes, but there are some cases where it may be a bit longer. In my experience, the availability and reliability of buses is good at WDW and it is basically the same at all resorts.
Hope that helps.

title: Jessie j pens candid update after announcing diagnosis with breast cancer

text:
Jessie J has given fans an insight into her mental health amid her cancer diagnosis.
Last week, the Price Tag hitmaker announced that she has been diagnosed with “early" breast cancer, and that she is preparing to undergo surgery later this month.
Now, following her major health news, Jessie has shared a candid update with her fans.
Last night, the 37-year-old took to her Instagram stories to write that she had had the “worst day so far” since receiving her diagnosis, and that she found that eating a corn on the cob improved her mood, explaining: “Turns out it's extremely hard to panic or cry while eating one.”
Jessie later went on to write: “The [rollercoaster] of cancer is [draining]. I won't be just talking about the highlights. And making jokes all the time. That isn't real life.”
In a later statement to her Instagram stories on Monday (June 9), the Grammy nominee chose to open up about how she has been coping with her diagnosis.
“So when I posted what I did yesterday about my current challenge in life, also while making light of the situation. That was one day in 10 weeks that I just lost it and was completely drowned in all the negative and bad feelings any cancer journey can bring,” Jessie wrote.
“I have had a lot of people since I posted that say to me things like, ‘Don’t think about the negative’ and ‘to beat this you have to stay strong, good thoughts only’ and don’t get me wrong I know all are meant with well intention and love,” she explained.
“But it’s sparked me thinking about how interesting it is in what we individually see as being strong is. I have always advocated for being real. Honest in your feelings,” she penned.
“So I will cry, I will be scared, I will panic, I will feel all of it for a minute or even a full day. And then eat a [corn] or listen to a song that lifts me up or laugh with a friend on Face Time. And then go and be a mum, and go to work and show up and be what I feel 90% of the time,” Jessie concluded.


title: Renewed optimism for teladoc health amidst mixed market sentiment

text:
Goldman Sachs analyst David Roman recently spotlighted Teladoc Health as a potential investment opportunity, initiating coverage with a buy rating and projecting a price target of $14 per share. If achieved, this target represents a significant upside of 56.3% from the stock’s close on Thursday. While Roman acknowledged the likelihood of a slight downward revision in the company’s EBITDA estimates for 2025, he remains optimistic about the company’s trajectory moving forward. He anticipates that Teladoc will take steps to guide investors through any potential uncertainty in early 2025, particularly during the fourth-quarter earnings call. This move is aimed at regenerating confidence among investors who have witnessed a notable decline in the stock’s performance over the past years.
Teladoc’s current situation is illuminated by its historical performance during the pandemic. Once among the most coveted tech stocks alongside Zoom, Teladoc’s shares surged in 2020 amidst a public health crisis that catalyzed telehealth adoption. However, as in-person medical consultations regained popularity post-pandemic, Teladoc’s valuation took a hit, losing substantial ground as the market corrected itself. By 2021, shares plummeted by over 50%, and an additional 74% loss followed in 2022. The year 2024 has proven similarly challenging, with the stock experiencing a further decline of more than 58% to date.
This downward trend raises questions about Teladoc’s position in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, where larger competitors have begun to create and promote their telehealth solutions. The advent of formidable players in the market means Teladoc must innovate and adapt, leveraging its existing capabilities to reclaim lost ground and potentially expand its influence in the telehealth arena.
Roman’s insights suggest that while the Integrated Care segment may yield encouraging results and potential margin expansion, the BetterHelp division faces headwinds that could impair its growth trajectory. Despite the predicted downturn in revenue and EBITDA for BetterHelp in 2025, Roman expressed cautious optimism. He identified ongoing efforts to improve insurance accessibility for BetterHelp users as a significant factor that could stabilize performance over time. As the company’s strategy becomes clearer, investors may come to regard this segment with renewed value—an essential pivot in the midst of fluctuating market conditions.
The broader market sentiment towards Teladoc appears tepid, with only six out of 27 analysts recommending a buy or strong buy rating. The lion’s share, comprising 21 analysts, maintain a hold rating, indicating a cautious approach among investment professionals. Nonetheless, the average target price on Wall Street sits around $10.45, hinting at a potential upside of over 16% despite prevailing uncertainties. Following the announcement of a buy rating from Goldman Sachs, Teladoc shares nudged upward by over 1% in premarket trading, signaling that there remains a contingent of investors hopeful about the company’s prospects.
While Teladoc Health faces an uphill battle amidst a shifting telehealth market and internal challenges, the potential catalysts for growth suggested by Roman may provide a glimmer of hope for investors looking towards the future. The company’s ability to navigate these challenges and leverage its Integrated Care segment will be pivotal in defining its path forward.


title: Week ten in grade three the start of second quarter

text:
Here we are, beginning a new quarter! How quickly the time seems to be passing…We have had a great First Quarter. Learning about where we are in the world has been an interesting experience so far! So much learning has occurred and the students have all realized that there is still so much to discover about our world.
The first quarter report cards will be sent home with your child this Thursday, November 15. You are asked to please sign the parent communication sheet and return it inside the white envelope with your child’s name on it.

Operation Christmas Child:
It’s Operation Christmas Child Collection Week at GCS. Please have your child return their filled boxes by Wednesday, November 14th. We sincerely thank every family who has contributed to this gospel-sharing opportunity.
Have yourselves a wonderful week!


title: Garden

text:
At this time, when we are unable to join together in the church, we thought it might be good to create a focus in our homes as we come to the climax of Holy Week.
We have created several Easter Gardens which we hope might be an inspiration for you to create your own, which can be used on Maundy Thursday and adapted and added to on Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
We will start with a garden on Maundy Thursday (to represent the Garden of Gethsemane), the sealed tomb and crosses can be added on Good Friday and finally the stone is rolled away for Easter Sunday.
There are lots of ideas on how to create different Easter gardens online, but we have included photos of what we’ve been up to. Our hope is that something can be created with the different things you may find at home.
The first one shows a traditional Easter Garden, using plants and soil from the garden, a small plant pot for the tomb, and twigs bound together with string.
The second shows an Easter Garden made on a Tupperware lid with an egg box tomb and lollipop stick crosses. Plants have been made with paper and catalogue clippings and everything was held down with Blu Tack.
The final garden has just been drawn on a piece of paper, the tomb and crosses made from cardboard (from the recycling). Our picture is in colour but if all you have is a pen or pencil it doesn’t have to be colour. The cardboard can be simply placed on the picture as we move through the days or stuck with glue or Sellotape if you are hanging the picture up.
Obviously, these are only ideas to help you and many things can be used if you don’t have exactly what you need – the recycling bin is always a good place to start. Have fun!

In the vibrant era of the Song Dynasty, where culture and fashion flourished, there emerged a woman whose beauty and influence transcended the boundaries of her time - Consort Yang, also known as the Concubine Yang Guifei. She not only possessed a captivating beauty but also wore the traditional Hanfu attire with such grace and elegance that she became a symbol of the era's fashion and culture.
Born into a noble family, Consort Yang was renowned for her beauty and wit. Her beauty was said to be so captivating that it attracted the attention of Emperor Xuanzongzhao of the Tang Dynasty, who later brought her into his palace as a beloved concubine. However, it was during the Song Dynasty that her influence and popularity reached its peak.
The Song Dynasty was a time when traditional culture and fashion were highly valued, and the Hanfu attire, which originated from the Han dynasty, was in its prime. Consort Yang's love for Hanfu was evident in her daily attire and ceremonial robes. She wore the traditional tops, trousers, and robes with such grace and elegance that she became a role model for women of her time.
Her attire was not just about fashion but also about expressing her personality and status. Her Hanfu robes were adorned with exquisite embroidery, beautiful patterns, and precious stones, reflecting her high status in the palace. Her love for jewelry and accessories was also reflected in her attire, further enhancing her beauty and elegance.
Consort Yang's influence on fashion and culture was immense during the Song Dynasty. Her style became a trendsetter for women across the land. Her Hanfu attire became a benchmark for women to follow, and her influence even extended to the common people. Many women aspired to dress like her and emulate her style, further popularizing the Hanfu attire.
Moreover, Consort Yang's love for culture and art was reflected in her daily life. She was skilled in poetry, music, painting, and calligraphy, which added to her charm and made her a cultural icon of her time. Her knowledge and appreciation of traditional arts further enhanced her status as a cultural ambassador of the Song Dynasty.
However, Consort Yang's life was not without controversy. She faced criticism and opposition from some quarters due to her influence on fashion and culture, which some perceived as a threat to traditional values. Despite this, she continued to influence fashion and culture positively, becoming a symbol of beauty, grace, and elegance in the Song Dynasty.
In conclusion, Consort Yang's journey through time is a remarkable story of beauty, influence, and cultural significance. She not only possessed a captivating beauty but also wore the traditional Hanfu attire with such grace and elegance that she became a symbol of the Song Dynasty's fashion and culture. Her influence on fashion and culture was immense, making her a role model for women across the land. Her love for culture and art further enhanced her status as a cultural ambassador of the Song Dynasty. Despite some controversy, she continued to influence fashion and culture positively, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire people even today.

Molybdenum components for vacuum furnaces have a wide range of applications and offer numerous performance advantages. Molybdenum is a refractory metal that is highly resistant to high temperatures, corrosion, and wear, making it an ideal material for vacuum furnace applications.
Molybdenum components are widely used in vacuum furnaces for various industrial processes such as, annealing, sintering, brazing, and heat treating. In the aerospace industry, molybdenum components are frequently used for high-temperature industrial processes, such as rocket engine production, where temperatures can exceed 2000°C.
One of the primary performance advantages of molybdenum components is its high melting point of 2623°C, which is second only to Tungsten and Rhenium. Additionally, molybdenum has excellent thermal conductivity properties that facilitate uniform heating in vacuum furnaces. It also has low vapor pressure, making it an ideal material for high-temperature vacuum conditions, where it does not easily react with other materials.
Another benefit is molybdenum's high strength and rigidity at elevated temperatures, which prevents distortion and deformation of the furnace during use. Additionally, molybdenum components are highly resistant to thermal shock and exhibit excellent creep resistance properties. Due to these properties, molybdenum components are extremely durable, providing longer service life than other materials.
In conclusion, the application of molybdenum components significantly contributes to the performance and reliability of vacuum furnaces, providing numerous benefits, including high-temperature resistance, thermal conductivity, low vapor pressure, high strength, and durability. Molybdenum components have become an essential material for industrial processes that demand high-temperature and high-vacuum conditions.
Q: Are you trading company or manufacturer ?
A: We are a trading company integrating production and sales, with more than 20 years of experience in the production and processing of refractory metals.

title: Therapist takes over insta

text:
This week for #freeyourmindfriday, Nikki, a therapist living with her own chronic and mental illnesses, took over our Instagram stories. Check out her bio below!
Hi all, I’m Nikki. I am so excited to be taking over 1N5’s Instagram stories!
So, I am not your normal therapist. I am proud of that. I have loads of experience, training and qualifications in helping people heal and recover—20 odd years working clinically in the UK NHS, most recently as a Consultant in Rehabilitation. I now work privately as a therapist as well as part-time in the NHS.
I have also had more than my fair share of chronic illnesses. I am disabled. I understand what it is like to be ill, feel ill and layer illness on top of illness. I have had serious illnesses all my life but a couple of years ago I was working and studying way too much, I was exhausted, in pain and hiding how unwell I was. Then I fell down the stairs. I had to stop working and studying for a Doctorate. I was in too much pain. I lost my purpose. I couldn’t help others, I couldn’t help myself. It took time, patience and support, but I began to feel better.
Now I use all my professional skills and lived experience to support others with mental health and chronic illness. I am a really good listener. I work hard to help people feel listened to, heard and understood. I am phenomenal at keeping the confidence of and remembering things about the people I meet.
I really care. Working with people and seeing them grow and heal really lights my fire. To me, there really is nothing better.
Love, kindness, empathy and working as a strong team are everything to me. My family and friends will agree with that!
I am also fiercely loyal and protective. Very dyslexic. Creative. Not so great at looking after myself.
I am working on this.
I like and strive for a simple life. I am rarely without family or our two dogs by my side or cooking, baking or chatting! I like being outside best of all, except for those days when it’s raining so hard or so windy the weather lifts you off your feet!

Will Google play Pokémon all the way to AR dominance?
Pokémon Go is the most downloaded app in history and it’s making gobs of cash for a few companies in more than one way. Developer Niantic is profiting, obviously, as are The Pokemon Company and Nintendo, with both a stake in Niantic and part-ownership of the Pokémon Company. Apple makes 30% from every in-app purchase, as does Google. (More than $14 million was generated in the first week alone.) Google is also an investor in Niantic Labs, the latter being a spun off startup from within Google itself. Google’s doing allllllright with Pokémon Go, even without direct ownership; in fact, it’s might end up being in the best position of all, benefitting from an arm’s length as well as setting up it’s own eventual play in augmented reality.
In 2004, Google acquired Keyhole, a geospatial data visualization developer for $35 million. Within Google’s startup incubator, it became Niantic Labs and provided tech for Google Maps and Street View. As CEO John Hanke puts it, “We wanted to do something that was aspirational: Let’s get people outside.” When Google re-organized as Alphabet was spun out on its own, with a sizeable investment from Google, among others. Google’s practice of cultivating innovation via in-house startups and then setting them free is a winning strategy. Partnerships with innovative disruptors offer inside access to the freshest ideas. Google wins first-rights to the tech and the minds behind it. If the roadmap doesn’t align directly with Google’s, it can spin out the company as an independent while maintaining investor stakes and the title of discovery.
What Pokémon Go does is to gauge mass appetite for augmented reality beyond the initial fad. Will people be interested? Invested? Willing to help, openly experience and, importantly, pay? That’s why Pokemon Go was a smart start. They’ll make money and gain valuable intel which they can apply to their own AR development, Project X etcetera, which will benefit from the mass market acceptance that Pokémon Go achieved.
Pokemon Go will be acknowledged as the app that introduced augmented reality to the masses. Essentially, clearing the way for Google and it’s behemoth AR innovations to move in to a market already primed for the tech. I don’t think anyone at Google is wringing their hands over the one that got away. And, I’m not talking about an Alakazam.
