(e) "Monsoon - The Indian Ocean and the Future of American Power", Random House, New York, 2010 by Robert Kaplan, Senior Fellow at the Centre for a New American Security in Washington and a member of the Pentagon's Defense Policy Board.
(a) As pointed out in the concluding paragraphs of the Economist leader, notwithstanding rapid modernization, China''s military capabilities are still many (perhaps 30 - 50) years behind the U.S.. China is only starting to build her first, out-dated, aircraft carrier compared with the U.S 's 11 ultra-modern aircraft carrier battle groups. China is therefore in no position to challenge the military supremacy of the U.S. for many years to come. But there is no doubt that China's A2/AD (anti-access/area-denial) capabilities are increasing in the Taiwan Strait where her leading core interest lies.
(c) China has huge domestic problems, including resource and ecological constraints, inequalities, corruption, regional imbalance, asset bubbles, rising middle class aspirations, declining export competitiveness, and an aging population profile in the midst of a leadership transition. Moreover, even if China's economy is to exceed that of the U.S. by 2027 as slated, China is set to remain at best a middle-income country like Turkey in per-capita terms well beyond mid-century. Therefore, China simply cannot afford to cherish hegemonic ambitions by entering into a military competition with the U.S. at the expense of her own economic trajectory, for which a peaceful international environment is crucial.
(d) However, that does not mean that China would accept violation of her vital "core interests", especially territorial integrity in the light of China's humiliating history of foreign occupation. In particular, the One China Policy is sacrosanct to the Chinese national psyche. It is only natural, therefore, that a stronger China is building up her military defence comprehensively. That's also why Beijing chose to re-double her military deterence against Taiwan in response to the separatist tendencies of former Presidents Lee Teng-hui and Chen Shui-bian. However, in the light of recent developments, Beijing seems to have come to the conclusion that eventual peaceful unification (without a pre-determined target date) remains the best option. Unless irretrievably provoked, therefore, China is unilkely to want to trigger a cross-Strait military conflict.
(e) Similarly, the South China Sea represents a core interest to China as the bulk of China's energy and trade, her lifeblood, flows through these sea lanes. Naturally, China would not concede their access to U.S. dominance.
(f) Taiwan as well as China's Asian neighbours, including Japan and South Korea, all thrive by deepening trade ties with China. For them, China has now become their largest trading partner and an engine of their economic growth. However, at the same time, all quietly want a free ride on the security umbrella of the U.S. to hedge against China's overarching influence. Simon Tay's "Asia Alone - The Dangerous Post-Crisis Divide from America" (John Wiley & Sons (Asia) Pte. Ltd, 2010) offers a timely explanation. Nevertheless, these Asian states have grown more independent and self-assertive. Balancing their economic interests, they are unlikely to be willing to act as U.S. client states in a rigid alliance in the form of an anti-China bloc.
(g) Military projection does not always work, as in the case of the War on Terror. What is more, it feeds into a classic security dilemma where both sides would try to out-manoevre each other, leading to increased chances of miscalculation and misadventure. This is a recipe for uncontrollable open conflict risking rapid precipitation into a global Armageddon.
(h) The world has now passed its uni-polar phase. In a multi-polar world, when military dominance is becoming less viable or productive, the United States has to live and work with other rising powers, including China, Russia, India, Turkey, and a changing Middle East including Iran, whose national interests may or may not be coterminous. In the light of reducing military resources and the emergence of new non-state and asymmetric threats with complex cultural and religious undercurrents, the U.S. has to rely more on a global network of both like-minded allies and other non-allied stakeholders. In particular, there is a case for striking a better balance between America's hard power of coercion with the soft power of inspiration.

Test-work on Vesconite polymer sliding wear plates have shown promising results on a crawler drill that is employed at a zinc project in the Northern Cape, South Africa.
The wear plates were installed on the rotary head slide of a drill that carries out exploration drilling at the mine from which the goal is to exploit one of the largest zinc orebodies in the world.
The rotary head moves the drill into the ground for deeper and shallower drilling. It also allows the drill to be changed.
Since the rotary head moves approximately 120 times a day, wear on the slides has been considerable, and the original-equipment-manufacturer’s (OEM’s) nylon wear pads were only lasting 500 hours.
As a result, the OEM crawler drill supplier involved in the zinc project sought a solution to extend the life of its wear pads and investigated other wear-resistant materials that could cope with highly-abrasive materials such as chrome and silica that come in contact with the pads.
Vesconite Bearings technical representative Phillip de Villiers recommended the use of Vesconite in the application to improve the total wear life of the slides.
The OEM equipment supplier reports that the Vesconite polymer wear plates have lasted more than twice as long as the OEM nylon wear pads – more than 1300 hours of operation to date. They will continue to be used and the wear life will be closely monitored in comparison with the nylon OEM parts.
The wear life will be tested and proved on the 10 wear plate assemblies, which is comprised of 20 separate wear plates on the crawler drill.
On a separate application on the crawler drill, Vesconite wear plates have also been employed on the boom slide. This is the rear part of the crawler drill. It is moved and adjusted to the drilling height, and provides stability to the drill. This boom moves roughly six times a day, so the wear is not nearly as considerable as the rotary head slide.
However, with the previously-installed OEM nylon slides lasting 1000 hours on this application, there was still a need to improve the lifespan of these slides.
The OEM equipment supplier hopes that the Vesconite will last much longer than the 1000 hours of the OEM material.
With low wear on the 6 Vesconite assemblies, comprising of 12 wear plate halves, early indications are that the Vesconite will also perform well in this application.
The equipment supplier imports crawler drills from Korea for resale, and also supplies parts for these and other drills that are used in mining-exploration drilling and borehole water drilling.
Gallagher is a distributor of Vesconite products for all industries. If you have questions about using Vesconite in any application, contact our engineering department.
Vesconite’s origins lie in the gold mining industry, a notoriously harsh working environment. The product was developed as a maintenance-free alternative to bronze bushings traditionally used in mining equipment. Unlike bronze, Vesconite eliminates three key issues: The need for regular lubrication; the effects of dirt and grit on costly components; the damage caused by water to traditional bushing materials. Vesconite offers up to 10 times the lifespan of traditional bushes in these harsh conditions, and saves hours of downtime caused by machines requiring frequent lubrication.
South Africa – A earth-boring company was looking for a durable material to create stabilizers for its borer machines. The machine bores between levels in mines and is capable of boring chutes up to 120m. The drill steel is subject to high levels of grit and rock. The Vesconite stabilizers help align the drill steel, thereby avoiding whip in the drill. Despite the dirty conditions, the new stabilizers required no lubrication between recommended overhaul schedules, and general maintenance and downtime were substantially reduced.
Vesconite and Vesconite Hilube are advanced engineering thermoplastics with a unique combination of properties ideally suited to bearing applications in the agriculture industry. Tried and tested in countless industrial settings over the past five decades, both locally and internationally, Vesconite thrives where traditional bronze and steel bushings often fail. In both dry, wet, dirty and unlubricated environments, Vesconite and Vesconite Hilube have proved themselves time and time again as long-lasting, low-maintenance bearing alternatives. Whether you’re a farmer, repairer or manufacturer of harvesters, planters, sprayers, harrows, etc, Vesconite and Vesconite Hilube should be considered as bushing and wear material substitutes.
I can’t understand why more farmers don’t use Vesconite.
This comment was made by an old farmer who had driven 185 miles (300km) to buy Vesconite bushings from our Johannesburg sales office. We can’t help but agree with this sentiment – that any farmer who hasn’t tried Vesconite for bushes, and other sliding wearing parts is unwittingly creating unnecessary work and expense for themself.
The dirt, abrasion and loads associated with earthmoving equipment create notoriously harsh operating conditions for moving parts. Despite these conditions – more often than not combining dirt and water – Vesconite performs well, and is the ideal material for bushings operating under slow speeds or oscillating movements under high load. With its lubrication-free qualities, Vesconite can save machine operators considerable lubrication downtime, not to mention reduced wear on costly counter moving parts.
United Kingdom – An original equipment dump truck manufacturer first tested the company’s Vesconite Hilube material in its articulation bushes in 2014, and established that they performed well in harsh operating conditions including large-scale construction projects, quarries and mine sites. The 355.95mm-outside-diameter Vesconite Hilube bushings were found to be cost-effective with prolonged durability in the long-run. The dump-truck manufacturer continues to order Vesconite bearings for its 38 ton dump trucks, which have a heaped capacity of 23.3m3 and an engine power of 331kW.
Vesconite has over several decades been successfully used in a number of railway applications. The material’s self-lubricating properties make it well suited to railway components that are prone to metal on metal wear and require regular greasing. Not only will a switch to Vesconite bushings avoid long periods of downtime, the noise and squeal issues commonly associated with rolling stock, is significantly reduced. With a resultant reduction in rolling resistance, considerable power savings have been noted with the use of Vesconite components.
Australia – An Australian tram operator continues to order approximately 100 Vesconite Hilube motor axle bushings a year, following its successful introduction to the product in 2006. The motor axle bushings, which require no lubrication and are wear resistant, have completely replaced the standard metal main drive H-class-tram bushings, which had been in use prior to the introduction of the polymer product.
Transportation / Automotive bushings require regular maintenance and greasing, and are prone to wear especially in wet or dirty conditions. Self-lubricating Vesconite and Vesconite Hilube eliminate the need for continual greasing and at the same time increases bushing life. Vesconite and Vesconite Hilube are tough and durable and perform well under the mechanical stress that occurs on vehicle suspension systems.
South Africa – Vesconite flanged pivot bushings have been successfully installed and used on container trailers at the national rail utility. The Vesconite bushes, with a flange of 205 mm diameter and a bore of 165 mm, were fitted to the walking beam center pivot bearing that equalizes component parts of the rear axle bogies. This heavy duty application required a material which had high load carrying capacity, low friction, high wear resistance and good dimensional stability. Vesconite, with all these characteristics, was used on the trailers that are used to transport 12-m-long general purpose containers.
USA – An aeration windmill manufacturer installed Vesconite Hilube bushings on its windmills, leading to smoother and more efficient operation. The bushings are an essential component in aeration windmills, which aerate ponds in private and public spaces, since fan rotation is key to ensuring that the diaphragm moves up; compressed air is taken in; and the compressor builds up pressure, which is released into the air line leading to the water. Because of this, the windmills are more efficient at reducing algae and foul smells, controlling mosquitos and creating a healthier environment for fish.
Vesconite Hilube bushings reduce energy costs in renewable energy applications. Turbines associated with these applications need to move rapidly and easily to produce efficient power, meaning wind, wave, tidal and current-driven turbines require a low coefficient of friction. Reduced energy losses as a result of the lower friction present in Vesconite Hilube bushings, allow turbines to rotate easily, producing electricity faster and at a reduced cost.
Vesconite, and Vesconite Hilube in particular, are ideal for the submerged and corrosive conditions of the marine industry. Suited to both dry and underwater applications, Vesconite’s internal lubricants allow for prolonged life where the setting is characterized by irregular greasing schedules, or no greasing at all. Unlike most bearing materials, Vesconite offers long wear life and a high load-bearing capacity with no distortion or delamination, despite the wet and abrasive working environment. Vesconite is easily removed and refitted, saving in costly downtime.
Texas, USA – A thermal power station required a high-wearing, low maintenance bearing alternative for a condensate pump assembly. The line shaft and pump bowl bearings used in this vertical spindle pump operate in pure water conditions at a temperature ranging between 30˚C and 60˚C (86°F to 140°F). Removal and maintenance cost on the pump are high. Vesconite Hilube bearings were manufactured and fitted. Resultant performance has been impressive – the replacement bearings have run without fault for four years, on a pump assembly that has a seven yearly maintenance rebuild schedule.
Texas, USA – A water utility in Texas had over the years experimented with different grades of nylon bearings in its vertical spindle pumps, but with little success. The pumps operated in the abrasive conditions found in pit-wells. The combination of debris and sand would eventually lead to excessive wear of the original bushings and eventual seizure. The original parts were subsequently replaced with Vesconite Hilube, which requires no lubrication, does not swell and can operate in dirty conditions as characterized by the above. The re-fitted pumps have since been running without incident for over a year now.

text: There is widespread agreement that government protection of banks contributed to the financial crisis, leading to proposals to require banks to finance a larger share of their portfolios with equity instead of debt – thus forcing shareholders to absorb losses instead of taxpayers. This column argues that equity ratios relative to asset risk are what matter, not equity ratios per se. Although higher equity requirements for banks may be desirable, the costs of reduced loan supply should be taken into account.

Bitcoin ATM is not as widely used as those made for fiat currency, however, there are now over 3,700 of automatic teller machines installed around the world. The latest data from Coinatmradar (a leading authority that tracks bitcoin ATM locations) shows that there are currently 3,777 bitcoin machines across the globe, as of press time. This new milestone comes 18 months after the total number of bitcoin ATMs surpassed the 1,000 installation mark in early 2017. No wonder that North America has almost 75% of all ATMs (there are 2199 items installed only in the US!); the United Kingdom and Austria dominate in Europe, followed closely by Russia and the Czech Republic.
ATM, also called Bitcoin Teller Machines (BTMs), is a device enabling the holders of debit or credit cards to withdraw cash from their banking accounts. The option of printing a part of the account information is also available. The withdrawal of cash from the ATM of the company where the payment card is registered is usually for free, while the owners of cards belonging to other banks have to pay a defined amount of money.
BTMs are physical centers where you can buy Bitcoins with fiat money and with some machines, sell Bitcoins too. They are meant to offer access to digital coins to those who are not a part of the banking system.
Bitcoin to cash can be more expensive than online transactions as the infrastructure cost is higher (i.e. building an actual ATM and the steps that are actually needed to transfer the money and Bitcoins).
Search online to find a BTM near you (you can use services like CoinATMradar).
Register and verify your identity. Very few machines allow you to buy Bitcoins without any ID, as most require your phone number or some other ID detail for access. Depending on the machine and the operator, you may have to divulge personal information to varying degrees. This is to meet compliance requirements and to keep your Bitcoins secure. You might be required to key in your phone number. After verification with a One Time Password (OTP), you are good to go and can buy Bitcoin. Some BTMs might require you to use the machine scanner to provide an ID card such as a driver’s license, passport etc.
The BTMs save Know Your Customer (KYC)/Anti Money Laundering (AMC) details, scrutinise them and report suspicious activity to the regulatory authority. After obtaining these details, the machines allow you to buy Bitcoin. The operators buy Bitcoin from exchanges and allow BTM users to withdraw Bitcoin from their wallets. One can buy as much coins as the operator holds.
In order to buy coins, you need to enter the dollar amount for which you want to buy and slip in the fiat notes one by one into the designated deposit area.
After depositing the money, the machine either prints an offline wallet for you or sends Bitcoins to your Bitcoin wallet. Some machines might also offer to send your Bitcoins to your email address.
The price of Bitcoin at these machines is typically 5–10% higher than the present going rates on exchanges due to added expenses such as rent, machine maintenance, regulatory requirements, charges, and volatility. Some still prefer to use these machines due to the ease of access or in the case of machines that don’t require an ID, absolute privacy.
In order to sell coins, you have to enter the amount of Bitcoin you want to sell and send it to the address displayed on the machine screen. Fiat money is dispensed after the transaction is complete.
The selling price offered at BTMs is also 5–10% less than the exchange rates.
There are two main types of such ATMs: one-way or two-way transactions. The basic ones, allowing the users only to purchase Bitcoins, and more complex ones, enabling the users both to buy and sell the virtual money. In case of complex ones, only the members of a particular ATM producer can use the it. All these transactions are executed in the shortest time, taking less than a minute. As of September 2018, the main manufacturers of the Bitcoin ATMs were Genesis Coin (1202) and General Bytes (1077S).
Around 65% of the crypto terminals worldwide only allow you to deposit fiat money into the wallet and buy bitcoins. The other 35% are two-way crypto terminals.
It is predictable that a one-way machine is more, e.g. COVAULT offers this kind of terminal per $6299. And you can install them in any location. While a two-way ATM is more complicated and pricy (the prices vary from $7499 to $8299). Even the model with cash recycler helping to reduce cash management costs is available. However, it is recommended to install these terminals in locations with good security and protection.
This is a two-way Bitcoin ATM, so both fiat money to cryptocurrency, and crypto to cash transactions could be done. Genesis1 is produced in San Diego, CA, by the US based company Genesis Coin Inc. The Genesis Bitcoin machine represents a solid ATM with all AML/KYC features required. By request an optional finger print scanner could be added. SMS verification function, identification card reader, and a high-definition camera could be used in order to comply with regulations in place.
It has finger print scanner for AML/KYC compliance features for the operators. With the BATMTwo customers limits may be raised by identifying clients by finger print scan and ID document scan. Also the email has to be provided. The verification of the customers is done by operators and takes about 15mins.
Itis relevantly small with the size of approximately 40×30 cm and weighs only 20 kg. So mainly it could be used within some monitored and secure places. Cash box supports up to 500 banknotes of more than 120 different currencies.
BATMTwo also supports remote management, including email notification of different events, e.g. transactions done or reaching some amount in cash stored, as well as POS functionality. That means if you install this machine in the shop, restaurant or any other business location, it can start accepting Bitcoin (or other cryptocurrencies) as a payment method without need to purchase any other hardware, software or integrating with any other third-party service.
BATMThree is a two-way bitcoin machine based on Android operational system produced by a Czech company specializing in Android and Bitcoin. With this you can buy and sell bitcoins. Futuristic design with neon lights changing color will definitely attract customers’ attention.
This terminal is remotely controllable, means you don’t need to physically attend it to change settings, which becomes very convenient when several machines are operated at the same time.
The machine supports several languages as well as several crypto currencies in addition to bitcoin.
Pricing is $6999 for the basic model with Banknote Recycler (600+2×60 banknotes). However, there is more expensive model BATMThreeXL for $8499, which has a Banknote Dispenser (2×500 banknotes) additionally to recycler. The price of both machines doesn’t include shipping.
Lamassu is one of the most popular Bitcoin machines today. The company was established by Zach Harvey, Josh Harvey and Matt Whitlock in the middle of 2013 and was targeting the new growing Bitcoin market with compact Bitcoin purchase devices. In April 2014 it was announced that more than 220 ATMs are sold, while about 80-100 were actually delivered. Out of those sent machines only a fraction is installed, as the local regulation becomes a surprising obstacle to many who bought the machine.
Initially it was possible only to buy crypto. However, in May, 2014 the Lamassu company announced the upgrade of their product by launching additional ATM floor cash dispensing stand called Santo Tirso for the standard vending machine, that turned Lamassu into a full two-way terminal. The stand allows to hold up to 1’000 notes.
Sintra Forte includes a beast of a vault controlled by an electronic lock. The vault is constructed from 6mm hardened steel and contains the note validator, note dispenser and computer board. The cryptomat supports Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Dash and Zcash. Operators may choose which cryptocurrencies to enable in the administrative backend. There are two models available for your purchase: 1-way (for €7,700) and 2-way (€8,900).
It is one of the best European bitcoin ATM machine produced in Portugal.
BTC facil is a Spanish company that introduced their first bitcoin ATM to the market in the beginning of 2016. However, they have recently launched a new model.

LocalBitcoins ATM project aims to provide automatization for converting cash to bitcoins and vice versa. The device works completely offline. ATMs are integrated to Localbitcoins website, and the actual bitcoin trade happens on Localbitcoins.com; the machine only takes care about the fiat handling.
There were two machines initially installed in Helsinki. But in August 2014 the company announced production batch out.
Buyer feeds banknotes to the machine, and gets a secret code in return. The code is used to claim the corresponding amount of bitcoins to your localbitcoins.com account. The exchange rate is defined at the moment the code is used.
Seller logs in to his/her localbitcoins account, and goes to the URL of the ATM he/she aims to use for withdrawal. The seller selects the amount he/she wants to withdraw from a dropdown menu. After selecting the withdrawal amount, corresponding amount of bitcoins are reduced from the seller’s localbitcoins wallet and the user will receive a code, which is given to the ATM through the keyboard. After the code has been inserted, the ATM will give corresponding amount of notes to the customer.
All banknotes where the size is inside of the range (width) 60-82 millimeters, and (length) 115-150 millimeters. The device can accept 6 different kind of bills from the selected currency. The device can be programmed to handle almost any known currency, but only one can be used at the time.
German company Global Funds Transfer (GFT) GmbH producers a terminal that can be used as two-way Bitcoin ATM and also as a POS terminal.
The machine can hold 300-600 paper bills. Any language could be installed using backoffice as well as any cryptocurrency could be flexibly supported based on the operator’s decision.
There are two ways cryptocurrency could be purchased – on preexisting wallet or by using a QR voucher after registration on BitXatm portal. According to the message from the company representative the machine can also print paper wallets.
It is not that easy to choose the best bitcoin machine. And it might take time to make this choice after reading the reviews about companies, their reputation, social network accounts and evaluating carefully which machine suits you best in terms of quality-price-features.

Many of our articles are inspired by the cars we spot in and around Los Angeles. Your author has encountered cars as diverse as a Bugatti Veyron, a Jaguar XJ12C, and a Fiat Multipla — not at car shows or museums, but parked on the street or driving in traffic. Every so often, we run across something exotic enough that even we can’t immediately identify it — something like this Autobianchi A112 Abarth.
We must admit that we didn’t immediately recognize this little car and it took some research to determine exactly what it was. Our first thought was that it was a Fiat of some kind, which was almost correct. In fact, it is a 1972 Autobianchi A112 Abarth, a mouthful of a moniker that bears some explanation.
The Autobianchi A112 Abarth is a little bigger than a BMC Mini, but not by much: 127.6 inches (3,240 mm) long on an 80.3-inch (2,040mm) wheelbase, tipping the scales at around 1,600 (725 kg) with a fuel tank of fuel. It has disc/drum brakes, MacPherson struts up front, and wishbones with a transverse leaf spring in the rear.
If you have any interest in bicycles, you may recognize the name Bianchi, an Italian manufacturer of high-end racing bikes. The Milanese company, which holds the distinction of having offered the world’s first bicycle with pneumatic tires, was founded by Edoardo Bianchi in 1885. Two years later, the company introduced a three-wheeled motorbike and in 1901–1902 developed its first automobile.
In 1905, Bianchi was reorganized as S.A. Fabbrica Automobili e Velocipedi Edoardo Bianchi & Co., offering a variety of products and even undertaking some racing. During the first World War, Bianchi produced military vehicles for the Italian army, returning to passenger-car production after the war. However, the company fell on hard times during the postwar depression, which was difficult for all makers of expensive cars. Bianchi was forced to concentrate more on motorcycles and bicycles than cars, although the auto business had recovered somewhat by the mid-thirties.
Like many automakers of the Axis nations, the Bianchi works were targets of Allied bombing during World War II, leading to the near-total destruction of the Milan factory in 1943. By 1946, Bianchi had returned to production, but Giuseppe Bianchi, son of the founder, decided to drop the passenger car lines to focus instead on bicycles and commercial vehicles.
In the fifties, general manager Fernacio Quintavalle began exploring the possibility of returning to automotive production with a new subcompact car. Since Bianchi could not afford such a project independently, Quintavalle negotiated a joint venture between Bianchi, Fiat, and the tire manufacturer Pirelli, dubbed Autobianchi SpA. Autobianchi’s first product was the 1957 Bianchina, which was based on the contemporary Fiat 500. Bianchi’s family, which had owned 33% of the business, subsequently sold their interest in the joint venture to Fiat, which acquired the rest in 1968.
Autobianchi’s role in the Fiat lineup was akin to Honda’s later North American Acura division: a somewhat more expensive brand generally selling upscale versions of existing Fiat cars. By the mid-sixties, Fiat was also using Autobianchi as an opportunity to try out new technologies on a smaller scale before introducing them to the mainstream brand. For example, the Autobianchi Primula, which bowed in 1964, actually introduced the groundbreaking transverse-engine/front-wheel-drive layout later used by the 1969 Fiat 128.
The three-door hatchback layout was still a novelty in the late sixties and early seventies, but by the time Volkswagen’s rival Golf debuted in 1975, it became de rigueur for subcompact cars. The Autobianchi A112 was available only in three-door form, but the Fiat 127 that shared its platform and body shell was also offered as a two- or four-door sedan. Fiat advertising claimed the 127 and A112 made 80% of the body available for passenger and cargo space.
A few years earlier, the BMC Mini had demonstrated the packaging advantages of a transverse engine and front-wheel drive. By consolidating the entire drivetrain into a single compact unit, the rest of the body’s volume is available for passenger space. The problem with that layout, however, was what to do with the transmission.
Alec Issigonis, designer of the Mini, opted to mount the transaxle in the engine sump, sharing its oil supply. This was compact but problematic; engines and transmissions have very different oiling requirements and requiring them to share lubrication results in compromises that are satisfactory for neither. Such an arrangement also tends to be noisy because of the need for transfer gears between gearbox and differential.
Fiat engineers wanted the space advantages of a FWD layout, so they opted to offset the transversely mounted engine and mount the transaxle next to it, driving the front wheels through unequal-length halfshafts. This provides a powertrain package almost as compact as that of the Mini, but with no need for transfer gears nor any of the drawbacks associated with putting the gearbox in the oil pan. The layout did have its limitations, including poor access for repair and maintenance and a tendency of the unequal-length halfshafts to exacerbate torque steer, although with well under 100 horsepower, the latter was not a great problem for most small FWD cars. (The Primula had a 1,221 cc (75 cu. in.) four making no more than 65 PS (48 kW).
The Autobianchi A112, introduced in October 1969, applied the technology of the Primula on a smaller scale, becoming the forerunner of the modern “supermini” class. Although it was a very small car, only 127.2 inches (3,320 mm) long and 58.3 inches (1,480 mm wide), its three-door configuration made it usefully versatile, particularly on the plusher A112 E, with its folding rear seat. A curb weight of only about 1,550 lb (705 kg) ensured good fuel economy and sprightly performance even with the modest 44 PS (32 kW) of the standard 903 cc (55 cu. in.) four, adapted from the one in the rear-engine Fiat 850.
The A112 was not a sporty car per se, but its fully independent suspension (MacPherson struts up front; wishbones and a transverse leaf spring in back) gave it nimble handling despite the diminutive 135SR13 tires, although with 60% of its weight on the nose, the little Autobianchi naturally tended to understeer. Front disc brakes provided good stopping power.
Just as the Mini’s agility had made it a favorite of rally drivers, spawning the Mini Cooper and Mini Cooper S performance derivatives, the A112 soon got its own performance model: the Autobianchi A112 Abarth.
The Bolognese firm of Abarth & C. was an early example of what today we would call a tuner. It was founded by former motorcycle racer Karl Abarth. Although Abarth was Viennese, he had worked in Italy in the twenties and resettled there permanently in 1934, becoming a naturalized citizen and changing his first name to Carlo. After the war, he became a director of Cistalia, but after that venture went into receivership in early 1949, Abarth and Armando Scagliarini decided to start their own firm. The company’s new logo was a distinctive scorpion emblem, derived from Abarth’s astrological sign, Scorpio.
Abarth & C.’s primary focus was racing; Scagliarini’s son Guido, who had previously driven for Cistalia, won two national championships in 1949 behind the wheel of the first Abarth cars. The firm’s bread and butter, however, soon became high-performance exhaust systems and other speed equipment for street cars. By 1962, Abarth was selling more than a quarter million mufflers a year.
The distinctive scorpion emblem of Abarth & C., recently revived by present owner Fiat.
Along the way, Abarth built relationships with other manufacturers and coachbuilders, including Lancia, Fiat, Zagato, Boano, and Pininfarina. Abarth & C. offered highly tuned competition versions of a wide range of cars, from the Simca 1300 to the Porsche 356B. The majority of Abarth’s cars were Fiats — natural enough, given that Fiat was Italy’s largest automaker. By 1967, Abarth had offered more than a dozen Fiat-based models.
It should be no surprise, therefore, that Abarth also turned his attention to the A112. In fact, his company built their first prototypes of a hopped-up A112 only a few months after the car’s launch in 1969, fitted with a race-tuned version of the four-cylinder Fiat engine Abarth had already developed for the company’s other products.
By this time, however, the company was not doing well financially despite its strong reputation. Abarth’s cars had won thousands of races, but that wasn’t enough to keep the business afloat in a very competitive market. Abarth, then in his sixties, decided he’d had enough. In the summer of 1971, he sold the company to Fiat. A short time after that, Abarth and his wife moved back to Vienna, where he died in 1979.
After 1971, Abarth effectively became Fiat’s performance division. One of Abarth’s first post-buyout models was the Autobianchi A112, introduced at the Turin show that fall. The production A112 Abarth used a long-stroke 982 cc (60 cu. in.) version of the standard engine, fitted with twin Weber 32 DMTR carburetors, a higher compression ratio, a hotter camshaft, an oil cooler and heavy-duty radiator, and of course an Abarth exhaust system. In this form, the engine was rated at 58 PS (43 kW) and 54 lb-ft (74 N-m) of torque. This was accompanied by a sport suspension and sport seats, a new instrument panel with full instrumentation, a slightly taller final drive ratio, an oil cooler, and a brake booster.
The extra equipment only added about 45 lb (20 kg) to the A112’s curb weight, so power-to-weight ratio was much improved, trimming about 3 seconds from the standard car’s 15-second 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) times and bringing top speed to about 93 mph (150 km/h). Although not outstanding by today’s standards, this was fine performance for a small European car of its era. List price was 1,309,000 lire, representing a premium of about 25% above the standard A112.
In early 1975, a bigger, 1,050 cc (64 cu. in.) engine with 70 PS (51 kW) and 63 lb-ft (85 N-m) of torque became optional on a new model dubbed A112 Abarth 70; the smaller-engined version, now called A112 Abarth 58, remained available through 1976. The big-engine Abarth was about a second quicker to 62 mph (100 km/h) than was the original and had a top speed of almost 100 mph (160 km/h). A five-speed gearbox became available in 1979, when the A112 line got its fourth modest facelift. (Three previous revisions had occurred in 1973, 1975, and late 1977; two more followed in late 1982 and the spring of 1984).
Ground effects and spoiler border on the ludicrous for a car with a top speed under 100 mph (161 km/h), but helped to distinguish the Autobianchi A112 Abarth from the mundane A112, which was of prime importance to Fiat. The rear fog lights on this car were required in some European markets.
The A112 was quite successful and competition A112s would be popular rally cars throughout the seventies, even leading to the creation of a one-marque racing series.
Back in 1969, Fiat had acquired Lancia, and in the mid-seventies, Autobianchi was rolled into the Lancia organization. By the late seventies, Fiat had dropped the Autobianchi brand in many export markets, rebadging the A112 as a Lancia in those markets. Nonetheless, the A112 remained very popular despite its age. It survived with only modest evolutionary changes through April 1986, selling a total of 1.25 million units. More than 10% of those were the Abarth version.
The Autobianchi brand survived in Italy and France until 1995 and was finally dropped when the last Autobianchi model, the Fiat Panda-based Y10, was replaced by the Lancia Ypsilon. Fiat eventually sold the rights to the Autobianchi name to Registro Autobianchi, the official Autobianchi club.
Abarth languished after Fiat’s withdrawal from racing in the mid-1980s, but in 2007, CEO Sergio Marchionne announced his intention to restore Abarth to its role as Fiat’s performance arm, establishing new dedicated offices in Turin. Its first products were the Grande Punto Abarth and dealer-installed Abarth SS, offering up to 180 hp (132 kW) from Fiat’s turbocharged 1,368 cc (86 cu. in.) engine. This was joined in the fall of 2008 by an Abarth version of the new FIAT 500 supermini.
To the best of our knowledge, Autobianchi was never officially imported to the U.S. and we doubt the A112 Abarth would ever have met increasingly stringent federal standards. The owner indicated that it is one of only three of its kind in the States — a rare and remarkable little car.

Cool article! I guess I have one of the other two in the country! Mine was imported from Netherlands a couple of years ago.
Are we sure those aren’t reverse lights? Possibly added so it could be street legal in the US?
I think that the US is pretty much the only country that requires the reversing lights built into the taillight housing, it also appears that they requite two, but this is just from observation. Look at the tail of a European 1st gen. New Mini and you will see a single reversing light (I think in Europe this also lights up red for a rear facing fog/inclement wether light) in the center of the lower bumper. US models have the bumper molded to show where this would go, but have the reversing lights in the taillight housings.
Now how far back these regs go, I don’t know (and didn’t try and find out.) If you see the owner of this car again, it would also be interesting to see if he knows whether they are factory or not.
Informative as always. Clearly I didn’t do any research on the taillight laws in the US, but just made an assumption based on never seeing ones in the bumper. And now that I type that out I do believe there are some GM cars, Pontiac Grand Prix? that I recall having them in the bumper.
Yeah, a number of U.S. models put them in the bumper; either side of the rear numberplate is also common. Mounting the lights in the bumper is not particularly desirable — it means they’ll break in even a minor parking lot shunt — but it’s legal enough.
Wow! An A112 in L.A. it’s just too cool! I’m italian, here there’s still some of these cute little cars walking down the road, about 10 years ago they were still one of the most common sights on the streets. This was a really smart and succesful car that appealed both to the ladies for its cute and fashionable style as well to young people seeking for some cheap thrills with the Abarth version. Very well written article, keep up the good work (and don’t be too mean with ’70s personal luxury cars: they were awesome!)!
In Europe (and since this car even has the original italian license plate it is originally build according to EU specs) no reverse lights or rear fog lights were required at the time of the A112. I don’t know the precise years but in the 80’s first reverse lights (at least one, colored white) where required and late in the 80’s rear facing foglights (at least one, colored red) where required. There are no requirements for front fog lights in Europe, although in case they are mounted they must be able to operate. Reverse lights have been a populair accessory since the 60’s though.
There where also requirement on the location of the reverse lights and rear fog lights (height, side of the vehicle in case of one) but I don’t remember the details. For sure it is not required to be in the light cluster. Most Asian imported vehicles will just get a hole cut in the rearbumper to accomodate a rear fog light to make it a EU vehicle.
Great site you have here. Keep up the good work.
Yes, you’re right: these are reverse lights. There were no regulations in Europe in those days (70’s) about the strength (lumen) of the lights, the number (you coul have one or two) or the size of the lens. The reverse lights could be put on automatically or manually by a switch mounted on the dash. The only regulation was when to use it.
Reminds me of a tiny little critter that you’d think was cute until it bit your wagging finger right off.
Nice article and quite a surprise to know there are A112s in the US. The description of the A112’s suspension is incorrect, though. The fron suspension is not double A-arms, but rather a MacPherson setup with coil springs. In the rear it’s an independent Chapman strut with a transverse leaf spring. The A112’s platform in in fact based on a shortened version of the Fiat 128’s.
Thanks for the correction! I haven’t reviewed this article in some time and there were a number of glitches. I’ve amended the text.
Little FWD B-segment cars like this or the early (first two generations) Honda Civic could be enormous fun to drive. It’s a bit like having a young dog (not a little puppy, but one who’s coordinated enough to not trip over his own feet like puppies do): It may not be that strong or fast, but it’s terribly enthusiastic about everything it does.

THE vastness of the Lord’s heaven follows from many of the things that have been presented above, especially from the fact that heaven is from the human race (see Sections 311–317), not only that portion of it born within the church but also the portion born outside it (Sections 318–328). This means that heaven includes everyone who has lived a good life since the very beginning of our planet.
Anyone familiar with the continents and regions and nations of this world may gather what a multitude of people there are on our whole globe. Anyone who goes into the mathematics of it will discover that thousands and thousands of people die on any given day, making hundreds of thousands or millions every year; and this has been going on since the earliest times, thousands of years ago. All of these people have arrived in the other world, called the spiritual world, after their decease, and they are still arriving.
I cannot say how many of these are or are becoming angels of heaven. I have been told that most of the earliest people became angels, because they thought more deeply and spiritually and were therefore enveloped in heavenly affection; while for later ages it was not so many because as time passed we became more externally minded and began to think more on the natural level, which meant that we were enveloped in more earthly affection.
This enables us to gather at the outset that heaven is huge simply from the inhabitants of this planet.
The immensity of the Lord’s heaven may also be gathered simply from the fact that all children, whether born within or outside the church, are adopted by the Lord and become angels, and their number amounts to a quarter or a fifth of the whole human race. It may be seen above (Sections 329–345) that every child—wherever born, whether within the church or outside it, whether of devout or irreverent parents—is accepted by the Lord at death. Every child is raised in heaven, is taught and is permeated with affections for what is good according to the divine design and thereby with firsthand knowledge of things true, and is then perfected in intelligence and wisdom, so to speak, and admitted into heaven to become an angel. You can gather what a vast multitude of heaven’s angels has come from this source alone from the beginning of creation to the present day.

The camera is big and heavy (160 x 112 x 80/120 mm, 1.320 gr), the brown anodized body structure was made from solid aluminum, the wing-like back doors are aluminum sheet metal and chrome plated brass. Negative format is 55x130mm. Single speed shutter. Fixed focus Contessa-Nettel Doppel-Anastigmat Teronar ƒ5,4/7,5cm no.396880, the diaphragm is adjusted by turning the inner ring of the rotating dial next to the finder. The detachable finder with built-in level is a modified series model from the original Horizon, with a taller finder base and a sliding shoe added to it. Film transport and shutter tension is done by turning the wheel next to the release, watching the numbers behind the red window in the camera back (no frame counter). The mechanism of the rotating drum runs, but is a little sticky. The camera is a well made prototype that must have been made well before the later 6x13 model 205PC.

It has been a crazy (and very scary) few days, but we really wanted to take some time to do a proper update on how things are going. First, we really need to make sure we say what we are thankful for right now, things could have been much, much worse than they were!! We also want to extend our heartfelt condolences to the many, many people in the area that lost far more than we did.
…..That all the people and animals at CARE are safe. No one was hurt and no cats escaped. That is largely due to the incredible construction of the enclosures that took a beating, the amazing leadership of Executive Director Heidi Krahn and Operations Director Derek Krahn, and the fast work and amazing calm of the CARE staff prior to, during, and after the storm-including our BRAND NEW interns under the supervision of senior volunteer/intern graduate Krista Cope.
…..For all the people that made it out yesterday to help clean up. JD Thompson - our tree god - was here at daybreak cutting trees and limbs until well into the evening. Andrew Rottner sent a generator for our freezer and 750lbs of chicken to help feed the cats. Camilla Smith, Derek Blakley, Annette Wiley, Krista Cope, Derek Krahn, Jessica Richter, Katie Handley, Heidi Krahn, Pam Lanfear, Jeff Fisk, Kelsey Prediger, Dustin Krahn, Destiny Krahn, Dakota Krahn, Claude and Stacey Maealiuaki (thanks for making lunch for the crew Stacey), and Gary Valdata (please forgive us if we forgot anyone!) were out here all day cleaning, working, and providing the best care to the cats. Our volunteers are truly the most amazing people who dropped everything for the animals. In one day, the majority of the debris was removed, enclosures made safe, and things almost back to normal.
….Everyone who reached out to ask if we needed help, see what they could do, shared our info with friends and family asking for assistance, and offered words of support and concern. Knowing that CARE has so many people out there who love the animals and are concerned for their well-being makes our hearts full. You have no idea how special that is!
….All the local news channels, NBC DFW, CBS DFW, and Fox 4 News, who covered what happened here and helped get the word out that we needed help. And, everyone who reached out to the media on our behalf (thank you especially Heather Merritt). Having the media support the animals is amazing!
….All of our amazing friends (and people we have never met) out there who donated to help the animals! Almost $11K has come in since late Monday night to help with repairs. So many of you gave, we wish we could name you all, but the number of people willing to give is just overwhelming. Just know that we saw each and every gift come in and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your willingness to help.
In fact, we truly think that the amount of repairs will be covered by what has just been donated, with some left over. So, we want to tell you a little bit about what we will do any extra money. We weren’t going to say anything for a few days until we had all the details in place, and the timing is a little off, but now is as good as time as any….especially since we really owe the safety and security of our animals to one important thing – the enclosures that were masterfully built for them. Specifically built to withstand the strength of tigers and lions, it seems they are excellent at withstanding tornado winds as well! Now, we need a new double enclosure to house our youngest residents who are VERY quickly outgrowing their current accommodations. Araali & Zuberi and Boomer & Slade need new houses! We have the plans drawn up and have been getting estimates on supplies and labor. We take the construction of quality enclosures very seriously and with the special needs of the young lions, and the fact that due to new USDA regulations they have to be a new height, this enclosure will not be cheap. But, thanks to you, we have a head-start on the fundraising! We will be getting out more info on the project with all the details, cost of construction, and where you can donate very soon. We even have a few cool things planned to make this fundraiser as successful as possible. Stay tuned and again, thank you all so much for your dedication and love of every single creature that calls CARE home. They are so fortunate to have friends like you!!

In order to unlock the Durahan Monster you'll first need to raise a Monster to a high enough rank that you're invited on an expedition to the Parepare Jungle. Here you'll find an Old Sheath hidden away in a mausoleum in the central portion of the adventure behind a large pumpkin obstacle.
Important off topic note, the mausoleum this is found in is right next to Tusk Tower which has the Gold Peach; an item that drastically increases your Monster's lifespan. This is the rarest and most valued item in the entire game which is why I am making a point of pointing it out now.
Back on topic, you might not get the Old Sheath your first time cleaning out the mausoleum but keep returning here until you do - this is the only building that has it throughout the entire area. Once you have this Old Sheath you'll want to hold onto it for a bit, at least long enough for Auntie who runs the item shop to mention a set of stolen swords.
It might not happen on your first visit, just keep the Old Sheath in your inventory and keep returning to Auntie's store on days when she isn't holding a sale. Eventually the dialogue will happen and it'll advance the quest forward.
Finding the Old Sheath in the mausoleum during the Parepare Adventure.
Assuming that you have a Monster that's A class or better, on the first week of February you'll be invited to the Double Edged Tournament which takes place at the end of February. The prize for winning this tournament is an item called the Double-Edged Sword.
When you use the Double-Edged Sword as a secret seasoning during Monster combination you'll get the Durahan Monster. That's all there is to it!

Scotland’s anaerobic digestion industry – involved in the conversion of rotting food and farm waste into electricity – has grown dramatically in the last year, new figures show.
27 anaerobic digestion projects are currently operational in Scotland, up nearly 70% from just 16 last year, while a further 43 have planning approval. With a dozen more plants waiting for permission to be granted, the sector could grow by more than 200% in the next two years, the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) said.
Anaerobic digestion involves farm slurry, vegetable peelings, paper and other organic material decomposing inside a closed chamber to produce gas, which is then used to generate electricity. The amount of food thrown away in Scotland each year has fallen by 8% since 2009, while less than half of Scotland’s household waste was sent to landfill in 2014 – the first time that figure has ever fallen below 50%, and a sign that technology like anaerobic digestion can help to reduce demand on landfill space.
Stephanie Clark, policy manager for Scottish Renewables, said: “These new ADBA figures show that anaerobic digestion is being taken extremely seriously by Scottish businesses.
ADBA chief executive Charlotte Morton added: “Scotland is leading the way in demonstrating how anaerobic digestion extracts value from our waste, while supporting farming resilience, reducing billions in carbon abatement costs, improving food security and production and generating employment and investment opportunities for rural economies.
“We are particularly excited to see AD plants working in partnership with local authorities to collect residents’ food waste and to distribute in its place heat and electricity for local homes.

These beans are in season from late August to early November and are known in France as ‘demi-sec’ or ‘half dry’ beans. The first time you see them you think they’re really grim looking French beans, but when shelled they’re a beautiful pearly white.
The following recipe is a simple and delicious way of preparing ‘half dry’ beans as a vegetable side dish although they can simply be boiled for about 30 minutes and added to soups, stews, salads, pasta etc. When you are testing them to see if they are cooked check the skin of the bean feels tender as well as the inside. This is because the skin can toughen up slightly on cooling. Add salt after the beans are cooked.
Shell the beans into a pan and just cover with water.
Add the tomatoes, herbs and olive oil, replace the lid.
Simmer gently for about 35 minutes or until the beans are cooked but check the pan occasionally as you may need to add a little more water.
Hook out the tomato skins and stir in the salt and pepper. Almost all the liquid should have been absorbed or evaporated to leave a sauce of emulsified oil and tomato.

Finding a job that fulfills you is challenging and very time-consuming, but I can’t emphasize enough the importance of taking a pragmatic approach to finding your career calling — all too often people jump at the first opportunity they see, sacrificing things that drive them for the sake of working at a job with “mission”. You need more than mission to keep you engaged at work, so make sure to find a career direction that will give you purpose.
Once you settle on your career direction, the following 19 places are the leading options to find that next job that will help make the world better in the process.
Unlike other jobs boards, this one comes without financial incentives — meaning that organizations don’t pay to post and you don’t have to pay to be a member.
Many countries and large cities have careers coaches and agencies that specialize in the social impact sector. Run a Google search and ask your network for local recommendations.

Import product specs from OpenCart?
This is somewhat of a general “how to” question, somewhat of a request for a plugin / utility that could help me accomplish this.
I have an existing site, built on OpenCart, with about 250 products.
Currently setting up a new version based on WordPress + WooCommerce.
Imported the products into WooCommerce, but the product specifications didn’t import, because in OpenCart, they’re in a completely different table, and are “added in” using a module (sort of like a shortcode).
Each product has 30-40 lines of specifications.
So I’m looking at 7,500 to 10,000 lines to be copied.
I really, really, REALLY don’t want to do it manually.
Does OpenCart support a CSV or XML export? If so, you can probably use the pro version of WPAllImport to import those products into WooCommerce.
There are members here who are proficient in OpenCart but this is not the right forums to be posting in, we are unable to help you. You would be better off asking in the OpenCart forums instead since from there help can be provided.
To Mod: I wish I could contact you directly, so much hostility… I’ve been an active member here since 2012 for peep sake. I’m Sorry.
The topic ‘Import product specs from OpenCart?’ is closed to new replies.
