Gass or petrol? - Aftenbladet.no

few years ago tanked most motorists liquid fossil fuels. Some built albeit on the cars so they could run on LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), and very few were in various hydrogen and electric vehicle trials. Until three years ago.

When stuck Mitsubishi wall socket and triggered electrical shock in Norwegian BILOMSETNING. The enormous interest in electric vehicles and hybrid traditional images Toyota Prius, parked other environmental options that plug-in hybrid cars and gas / petrol cars.

But a quiet revolution may be underway on the vehicle front as a result of increasingly better access to biogas produced locally by municipal waste and sewage.

Therefore duel this time VW eco-Up that can run on both natural gas (CNG = compressed natural gas), biogas (LBG = liquid bio gas) and gasoline toward more traditional, but still brand new Hyundai i10.

Hyundai i10

It is said that the difference between a small and large car soon just about size. Where are Hyundai i10 themselves.

A neat, small car. But bald deceive, for you have no idea really how much i10 is before you pack it with four adults and luggage necessary weekend. It goes into everything – and with 87 hp under the hood of the car bear both the load and uphills.

For us therefore appears to Hyundai i10 as a full and quite competent small car in the intersection of the class, where Toyota Yaris rules the bestseller list.

Now is it for the car, like in life that you get what you pay for. Therefore cost Hyundai i10 as well the same as hybrid Yaris when equal benefits are measured against each other. 180.000 million is a pretty stiff price for the car in minute class. Which again proves that it is not necessarily the size of the vehicle that affect the price, but also very much what is put into it.

In i10 Hyundai has put in the most you would expect in a modern car, including heated steering wheel, Hill Start holder, automatic climate control, parking sensors and class-leading handling. You will be amazed how straightforward i10 is having to do even when the weather makes the roads almost impassable.

But while it lacks – which is still too many cars from Asian manufacturers – different driver assistance systems that prevent falling asleep at the wheel, driving off the road or running on vulnerable road users.

Hyundai’s best card against competitors are still seven-year warranty, which in practice means seven years of trouble-free driving.

VW eco-Up

This is a clear urban car than the Hyundai i10, but three cylinders and 68 hp makes the short breather although only one on board.

Up is basically even less than i10 and recorded only four, while i10 five loads. But our research shows small differences in the interior space.

Up perceived as a clearly less expensive car with “simpler” than i10 interior. For example, no rear windows cranked down, and you have to lean over the passenger next to open window in the front passenger door.

This is in stark contrast to the price. VW eco-Up in the tested version actually cost 20,000 pounds more than the i10, ie NOK 200,000.

Neither matchup driving experience in i10, and did not make it just as well on poorly plowed roads. In a few cases we gave up Up, while i10 easily picked up.

return had tested both the Up navigation and “City Safety” which automatically brakes the car and stops it altogether in byfart if the driver is inattentive and did not see the obstacle in front. Great to be in such a small car.

Up score also the environment. Run on biogas not escape a single fart. All farts are already in circulation and makes the car completely climate neutral.

Full gas tank gave us approximately 330 km range with mixed winter driving. When we had left ten gallons of gasoline to save us to the nearest tank. But more on the economy elsewhere.

VW has made great success in Norway with Up after electric variant took showrooms towards the end of last year. At the same time the Danish clearly best-selling car model last year.

Accelerating

Gas has for many years been taxed lower than petrol and diesel, but high ombygningskostnader botched gladly math. Factory-made gas cars change this.

So far there are mainly Volkswagen has actively invested in natur-/biogassbiler in Norway, with little Up as important passenger. With gas tank provides Up 68 hp and costs only 2,000 pounds more than the gasoline car with 75 hp.

It is not anyone who can benefit from such a car. Bidding will be access to fuel and construction are in still in “trial and error” stage. But certain it is profitable if you have a thought station nearby.

This is the math with VW eco-Up in test against Hyundai i10:

• Mileage 332.0 km on both cars. Then the gas tank Up near empty.
• Cost i10: 0.529 liter petrol / mil pump price 15.32 NOK / liter = 0798 kr / km.
• Cost eco-Up: 13.3 Nm a £ 12.79 / Nm = 0512 kr / km .
• Annual fuel savings of 4297 million with driving distance of 15,000 km.
• Nm = normal cubic meter, an international unit of natural gas equivalent to 0.948 standard cubic meters (Sm).

Gas prices vary around the country. Aga takes 12.79 million / Nm for clean biogas by E18 on Slependen outside Oslo, while Lyse Energi in Stavanger calls for 8.85 kroner / Nm for biogas and 7.35 million / Nm 33 percent biogas (third biogas and 2 / 3 natural gas).

From waste to fuel

The Best of biogas is that it is both climate-neutral and can be produced locally. So far are biogas in test stage in Norway. As fuel is used primarily by business and government agencies.

Very few private thoughts natur-/biogass and only 48 new cars that could use these fuels were registered last year. Otherwise, 222 vans with gas operation phased in the Norwegian fleet in the last four years, according to figures from the Norwegian Road.

climate enthusiasts with environmental organization Zero spearheaded produced biogas as the best fuel because it is carbon neutral. Also, the cars as an emergency also run on gasoline.

example, Up ten liters large fuel tank sufficient for a scant 20 mile drive with gentle throttle. The gas tank had time to 320 km below the prevailing driving conditions.

benefits of biogas:

• Renewable fuel
• local production – local consumption
• Sustainable both locally and globally
• Extremely low emissions of sulfur, particulates, CO

Biogas is part of nature’s own circuit consisting of 97 percent methane and obtained from the decomposition process of organic waste. Since the gas already in the cycle of nature, it is defined as climate neutral. Engines designed for regular gasoline, can be easily adapted biogas operation.

One of last year's top Android phones have shrunk - Dagbladet.no

DINSIDE.NO: Smart Mobile manufacturers have realized that not everyone will have big screen. In recent years, therefore increasing numbers released mini versions of their top models, and we can mention HTC One Mini and Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini.

Also LG plunged on trend with the LG G2 Mini.

It’s short, compact version of their flagship G2, which we regard as one of last year’s top Android phones.

Mini version has admittedly not as hefty specs: On the inside For example, a weaker 1.2 GHz quad-core processor and only 1 GB of RAM.

Not exactly small screen

G2 Mini also has a 4.7 inch screen, compared with 5 inch screen with big brother G2. The resolution is unfortunately much lower in G2 Mini – it is qHD, ie 960 x 540 pixels compared to 1080p resolution with big brother (four times as many pixels).

Everything is not letdown.

G2 Mini has the same great design, is made of plastic and has a slightly different backing with a rough surface that makes it feel like a cheap phone. It is nearly a millimeter thicker than the big brother, but is quite easy and comfortable to hold.

Front page consists almost entirely of the screen, and on the back we find the unique key solution LG launched with G2. We find it a bit odd, since the company said this was designed specifically to make a great phone easier to handle, and G2 Mini actually needs it.

Latest Android

The user experience on G2 Mini is otherwise the same as the top model. A middle-mobile running the latest version of Android, which is not always the case for phones in this category.

Susanne Persson, Nordic Product Specialist for mobiles LG Electronics, says the DinSide that all smart phones they launch this year, will come with Android 04.04. I lowered namely system for phones in the latest version of the mobile operating system, which makes it easier for manufacturers to put it also in the cheaper models.

Cool and safe unlocking

LG has made a number of tweaks to the user interface and added some own software too. We will certainly never tired of complaining that it can be much “bloatware”, and it is also the case here.

Some of the unique features is quite handsome.

G2 Mini include “knockon” feature we remember from G2, where the user activates the screen by pressing it twice. But it also comes with an enhanced version of this called “Knock Code,” which allows you to unlock your phone by touching different areas of the screen in a certain order.

It is easy to set up and works well well in practice. Without button on the front is a great way to unlock the phone without having to pick it up from the table, for example. Knock Code comes to other LG phones in the near future, and you see how the function works here.

4G mobile to 2500 million

G2 Mini has also a battery 2.440mAh. There are marketable, but we’ll come back to the battery when we get the phone to test. LG promises himself that battery time will be very good. 4G is also supported, by the way.

Although LG has not gone the same way as Sony did with its Xperia Z1 Compact, we are left with a good first impression G2 Mini. No, it is not as hefty as G2, but then it’s also about a thousand lobe cheaper. LG says they hope to reach an even wider audience, not only in the price sensitive markets, but also in countries like Norway.

LG G2 Mini will begin shipping during the second quarter of this year, and will have a suggested retail price of 2,490 dollars, get DinSide lit.

Målteknologi prevented debut victory for Magath - Fædrelandsvennen

After just one point from their last six games in the Premier League Fulham glimpsed one trepoenger in Saturday’s away match against West Bromwich. Felix Magath, which incidentally is the Premier League’s first German manager, seemed to have awakened to life Fulham players.

– We were so very close, said a disappointed Magath after the game.

– We are disappointed, but as a whole is probably 1-1 the most appropriate.

opening against West Brom was not all that bad and it was the visitors from London who took the lead. After 28 minutes received Ashkan Dejagah ball after Lewis Holtby had missed it. He used one touch before he put the ball in the net.

Management held long, but not long enough to give Magath victory in his debut. For four minutes left on the game clock had mållinjeteknologi be used to determine whether the conclusion of Matej Vydra was out of line. It was the one with about five centimeter margin. (© NTB)

Høie will stop drug research - Bergens Tidende

Haukeland University Hospital wants to start a research project looking into the possibility of distribution of heroin.

– If research shows that this is good medical care, so we take it for granted that politicians will approve such treatment, says Ola Jøsendal, head of the Department of rusmedisin at Haukeland University Hospital.

Last December it was announced that Haukeland would seek Health Ministry to be handing out free heroin to the heaviest drug users.

Stopping research

At the time, Health Minister Bent Høie fast on the track and said he was going to say no to such an application. Now planning Jøsendal to apply for a research project with the distribution of heroin.

Helse Bergen Director: – This is not dangerous

Chairman Ranveig Frøiland believes Bent Høie be waited and seen what was in the application before cash rejected it.

- Such research will not need political approval. This is purely a research project, and the approval must come from the Research and Ethics Committee, said Jøsendal.

He says that when they sat down and looked at the research that formed the basis for last year’s application, they discovered that there were some shortcomings.

– One of these was good enough research on whom such a treatment may work for and how we can identify these individuals.

He says that he will apply for two research projects. Only one project to identify those who may benefit from treatment with heroin. If the first project is performing well, it will be applied to start a research project with the distribution of heroin.

Can work

Jøsendal says they hope to start with the first part of the project during the year, and strongly believe that such treatment can be effective. When BT spoke to Jøsendal in December, he showed that such

projects have been implemented in cities such as Zurich, Amsterdam and Copenhagen. The results from there thought he was good, and pointed to the fact that it has been less crime, lower recruitment in drug environments, and a decrease in the number of users.

Jøsendal admits that the planned research project is because they were rejected by the health minister in December but says that the matter would come to the conclusion that the criteria in the application was too bad.

Not applicable

Health Minister Bent Høie (H) does not like Jøsendal will start such research.

– I am against heroin assisted treatment. When Parliament considered rusmeldingen was a broad political majority who agreed that heroin trials supported treatment should not be allowed. Nor is political majority to go in for it now. I think it’s far more important to strengthen low-threshold measures, reception centers, and other services for this group of addicts. The work that we started with, Høie writes in an e-mail to BT.

Asked whether the Ministry of Health will do anything to stop the research project, he replied:

– A broad political majority in Parliament agreed that the trial of heroin-supported treatment should not be allowed. It is therefore not appropriate to initiate this kind of research project organized by the health authorities.

not concluded

Ola Jøsendal specifies that they have no conclusion about which patients may benefit from heroin treatment, and that this is still an open question.

– To gain improved knowledge and insight about patients in Bergen can give an indication for or against the initiation of heroin treatment.

implementation of the first project will advance thus not the commencement of a heroin assisted treatment and rehabilitation.

– The number of actual patients can be expected to be so low that it is not possible to draw firm conclusions, pure statistical reasons.

In the cloud, there is never full - DinSide

Annonse

DinSide Med lagring i nettskyen har du alltid tilgang til dokumenter, bilder, musikk og resten av ditt digitale liv. Denne uka relanserte Microsofts sin skylagringtstjeneste under nytt navn. SkyDrive er nå OneDrive, og skal konkurrere med aktører som Dropbox, Google Drive og norske Jottacloud.

Grovt sett gjør alle disse tjenestene den samme jobben: Enkel og oversiktlig skylagring, med synkronisering på tvers av enheter. Enkelte tilbyr automatisk enveis backup av definerte mapper til nettskyen. Automatisk bildeopplasting fra mobilappene er også en vanlig funksjon.

Men tjenestene har ulike styrker og svakheter. Det følgende bør gjøre det litt enklere å vurdere hvilken som passer best for deg.

Alle tjenestene er tilgjengelige for Windows, Mac, Android og iOS. Men Dropbox er kompatibilitetsvinneren, med egne versjoner også for Linux, Blackberry og Kindle Fire.

Alle kan fåes både som gratis- og betalingstjenester. Norske Jottacloud har lavest betalingsterskel, med 120 kroner i året for 20 GB lagringsplass. Men OneDrive er rimeligere om man vil ha 100 GB plass, med 294 kroner mot Jottaclouds 435. Google tar 360 kroner for 100 GB, mens Dropbox er langt dyrere, med 600 kroner i året.

Google er mest generøs med gratisplassen, med 15 GB. OneDrive følger med med 7 GB og Jottacloud med 6 GB. Dropbox tilbyr bare 2 GB gratis lagringsplass.

Så hvilken skal du velge? Lever du ditt digitale liv i Windows-universet, er OneDrive en sterk kandidat. Tjenesten kommer ferdiginstallert som en del av Windows 8 og 8.1. Vi som sitter med tidligere versjoner, må laste ned applkasjonen separat. Brukere av andre operativsystemer kan også bruke OneDrive, men det merkes at tjenesten er giret inn mot Windows-brukere.

Jan Omdahl er internett- og mediekommentator i Dagbladet.no (Foto: Dagbladet)

Det er bare med Windows 8.1 man får den virkelig tette integrasjonen, der du blant annet kan bla gjennom og få forhåndsvist filer i OneDrive-mappen i Utforsker, selv om de ikke er lagret lokalt på maskinen. OneDrive har også en meget god og brukervennlig webløsning. Tjenestens akilleshæl er hastigheten. Spesielt opplasting går langt raskere hos flere av konkurrentene, viser tester utført av DinSide.

Google Drives største styrke er den tette integrasjonen med andre Google-produkter. Har du allerede en epostkonto hos Google, er det meget enkelt å komme i gang. Med på kjøpet får man også en enkel kontorpakke med tekstbehandling, regneark, presentasjonsprogram og tegneprogram, som det er enkelt å dele med andre og jobbe på sammen. En svakhet er at Google Drive mangler automatisk bildeopplasting via mobilappen.

Markedsleder Dropbox' største styrke er at det virker sømløst på tvers av operativsystemer, noe jeg personlig har hatt nytte av siden 2007. Bruker du flere ulike plattformer i din datahverdag, kan dette være tingen. Applikasjonene er veldesignede og brukervennlige, men vil du ha mye lagringsplass, blir det fort dyrt med Dropbox.

Norske Jottacloud gjør det den skal, inkludert automatisk fotosynkronisering. Data lagres på selskapets tjenermaskiner på Økern i Oslo, så tjenesten oppleves kanskje særlig lynkjapp for nroske brukere. Foreløpig er web-grensesnittet ikke så velutviklet som hos de argeste konkurrentene, til gjengjeld gjør tjenesten et stort poeng av at de tar personvern og sikkerhet på største alvor.

Therefore paid Facebook 115 billion for WhatsApp - Dagbladet.no

In 2009, Brian Acton no on job applications in both Facebook and Twitter. Instead, he joined the former Yahoo! colleague January Koum the creation of instant messaging service WhatsApp. Last night came the news that Facebook buys WhatsApp for absolutely mind-boggling 115 billion, spread over approx. 24 billion in cash and the rest in Facebook shares.

How can job luck turning.

sale price is higher than Iceland’s gross domestic product, or the market value of the entire Sony, colleague Marius Jørgenrud in digi.no writes in this commentary.

WhatsApp is an instant messaging app on smartphones, available at all leading mobile platforms. Beside the text messages users can send pictures, video, audio clips and map references.

I have been using since the service was established in 2009, but after Apple released its iMessage in 2011 and with its Facebook Messenger, Whats App largely been left alone on the phone. But just under my radar service has grown tremendously. Whats App has more than 450 million users. 70 percent use the service daily. Soon sent several instant messages via WhatsApp than with SMS worldwide.

WhatsApp do with the market for SMS on mobile phones the same as Skype did to fixed telephony.

While Facebook has managed to take a strong position on instant messaging in the U.S., it is WhatsApp dominates in Europe and in fast-growing mobile markets like India, Brazil and Mexico, writes TechCrunch.

Mark Zuckerberg would therefore not risk fail in an attempt to oust WhatsApp, and opened his wallet instead. Kara Swisher at re / code believes this is the price for not having its own mobile operating system, as Apple and Google. One must instead try to buy mobile dominance in other ways, and lately it has become increasingly clear that Facebook metastases on a strategy of multiple, independent mobile applications that share user data. The acquisition of Instagram and now WhatsApp, and the launch of Messenger and Paper, pointing in the same direction.

But where is the business model?

What is it who get Facebook to pony up an amount for WhatsApp roughly equals that Google paid for Motorola mobile company AND the Microsoft paid Nokia’s mobile division?

Facebook supposed to earn their money on advertisements, and there are no ads in Whats App, which users use free the first year and then pay one dollar a year. The founders even say that “hate advertising,” and the promise that the service will remain ad-free.

But it hangs probably add up, however.

The Facebook bought is not only a popular mobile app and dominance in a specialized appmarked, but also close to 450 million phone numbers, many of them with their names entered upon registration.

An overwhelming majority of these will also be Facebook users, and many have already upon registration took the opportunity to connect their WhatsApp account together with friend list on Facebook. Have they not done so voluntarily provide Facebook of that happening now, in the background.

And when these databases are linked together, it becomes “big data” with the soaring market, so this blogger speculates .

Suddenly Facebook knows more about who you are, where you are, who you interact with, how you intend revel and what you plan to do there. Although the contents of the messages are not stored, it is unlikely that Facebook will allow the ability to automatically read the message traffic in real time go by, and later use this link to advertisers. That’s how I do it with search, email and other site content that users generate, and that’s the way Facebook does in its other applications.

How to Obtain Facebook itself an immensely powerful tool for targeted advertising to mobile users.

Not even Google has something similar.

Privacy, you say?

There is no one who reads using wild conditions anyway. Therefore, many of us already several times agreed to our digital lives vacuumed commercial value. Probably the updated version of WhatsApp Conditions contain a formulation similar to the Facebook-owned Instagram uses:

We will not clean or sell your information two third parties outside Instagram (or the group of companies of wooden Instagram is a party) without your consent, except as Noted in this Policy.

Here is Porsche's new mini-SUV - Dagbladet.no

• More car field on db.no / car

DinSide: The market for premium SUVs continues to increase. Now, Porsche’s contribution, Macan, and we have test driven the car to be the most sporting car in the class of compact SUV.

A look at the available engine options give clear signals about the purpose of the car.

Norway starting the car at around 800 000. When you get a 211-horsepower engine with more than enough torque to have fun. If you’re an average customer of such vehicles, add equipment for around 150 000.

car launches in Norway 5 April, and now all that is available until September, is already sold.

ALSO READ: How will Porsche Macan

Known operator environment

Inside, everything seems familiar. It’s like coming back to a place we’ve been before. Buttons are located where they have always done in a Porsche, and the ignition key has of course its own place on the left side of the steering wheel. Female voice navigation system is also known, and it is almost as we say thank you for last.

Materials and perceived quality is just like all other vehicles from Porsche, so Macan bears no means evidence of being a savings product . The effectiveness and cost savings are made entirely elsewhere – in the production line.

The driver’s seat is in other words a nice place to sit down, because the environment is very good. Front makes you small to put you into a smaller car than the Cayenne , but the further back it is natural enough not just space. In the back seat, we were excited at the ceiling, but even with a roofline that slopes down early to give the impression of a more coupe-like style, so they have enough space for even the most lofty.

Luggage space in Macan is provided to 500 liters with all seatbacks up. Then you can play musical chairs until you have a trunk that measures 1,500 liters.

Four and one

Macan will be initially launched with four engine options, as you can see in the table at the bottom. The smallest 211-PS engine, a car that really made except for Belgium and Norway. These are adjusted down to fit the tax system. The other options are as in other markets.

Porsche has chosen to put the car up with a PDK double-clutch transmission as standard. You can, in other words not choose manual, not even as an accessory. This is no reason to be depressed by as PDK gearbox is the most efficient in terms of consumption, safety and driveability. In addition, some of the features of the car that would not have been possible in combination with manual transmission.

Three different bases

You have three different bases to choose from. You can get passive steel springs, steel springs in combination with PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), or air springs that always comes with PASM.

In virtually all cars from Porsche, I would recommend choosing one of the systems that are available with this PASM system.

This allows the chassis changes the nature of the driving style you choose, giving you an extra dimension to a car which after all is designed to be sporty. If you decide you would choose no, then never a Porsche as a hammock, but you’ll thank yourself later for the ability to adjust the layout itself.

Renowned platform

Porsche Macan is known based on the platform of Audi Q5 , which mostly means the bottom plate and the inner wheel arches. The rest is redefined by Porsche to suit their clientele. To think that the cars are the same so long as they share the platform is as wrong as believing that two cakes must be equal because they are fried in the same baking sheet.

In many areas it can be said that Porsche still there Audi has ended.

All controllable with throttle

Porsche has its own test track at its factory in Leipzig, a fun track that has copied items from other famous courses around the world, from Laguna Seca in California, the Fuji circuit in Japan.

Although the path is not over just under four kilometers long, so it still has a profusion of fun combinations.

car turns out to be very well balanced, and should you find to provoke too much, let’s all easy control with accelerator. In all engine options are there enough strength to all situations.

Turbo edition is of course the one that stands out on the court, but out on the road we found Macan S diesel just as interesting. It has also more torque than its petrol brother, Macan Turbo, and the lower part of the rev range where you normally reside most.

Active aids

The steering is among the things Porsche has been very good, but they have also experience to be gained from big brother Cayenne. The PTV system (Porsche Torque Vectoring) it is near impossible to get the car to be under controlled, as long as you do blisters of some driver error.

Wheel drive system helps to ensure correct balancing at any time, and it distributes the force lynkjapt to the wheels that need highest operational in every situation.

Porsche has also given back wheels about two percent larger rolling circumference than the front wheels. This is to trick AWD system into thinking that it is a little wheel spin at once. This connects the weak, and is therefore never completely. This makes it even faster when you actually need it, with quicker response.

Works fine in terrain

If for any reason you were to take the new Macan out in the field, it is absolutely capable. Porsche wheel-drive system has the facilities to be, and few have such a great opportunity for variation in the power distribution.

Are offered at a switching from 100 percent pure RWD 100 percent front-wheel drive – including everything in between. In addition, it slows the wheels that have little grip, and transfer to the wheels with the best grip. If need be extreme, you also have the option of full barrier system through PTM (Porsche Traction Management), and when there is little to stop a Macan.

Program choice for off-road-connection at all speeds up to 80 km / h Then change all auxiliary character for prioritizing traffic flow above all.

PHC system (Porsche Hill Control) helps you down the steep slopes, and can be adjusted to the speeds of three to 30 km / h. In combination with air suspension can raise the ground clearance by 40 millimeters to 230 millimeters, which also changes the angle of attack considerably.

Wading depth on a Macan is 30 centimeters, and the restriction is not in the vents, but the air vent on the gearbox . Water in the lubricant is natural enough not desirable.

Sport or Sport Plus

Porsche has a motto that every car they make will be a sporty car, and Macan is no exception. It should follow the trend of Cayenne, which is the more sporty you can get in its class.

Ticking of the Sport Chrono equipment list becomes even more athletic. When you get buttons for Sport and Sport Plus in the center console. These are accessories that most easily distinguished with the analog and digital instrument up on the dashboard.

These give you more aggressive modes in situations that require it. The chassis is tightened up, the idle speed increases, the maximum speed is increased, and the program for gearshift change to a more performance-based program. In addition, it allows for launch-control. In measurable result, this gives you 0.2 seconds better time from zero to 100 km / h.

It is still under sporty driving system is the real payoff. Not primarily in the acceleration.

Efficiency

Even at sporting cars must be envisaged efficiency and fuel economy. All engines in the new Macan is Euro 6 certification, and when it is completely natural with items such as start / stop function, which switches off coasting gear every time you veer off and regeneration of braking power.

Should you still feel that this type of cars are environmentally swine dimensions, I am sorry to bring bad news. The class of compact SUVs are on the increase. In fact, it has increased from 464,000 vehicles worldwide in 2007 to over 1.3 million vehicles in 2014. In 2019, the estimate for the number of sold cars in this class of well over 1.7 million cars, and in 2024 Porsche believes it to be traded close to 1.9 million compact SUVs. This is the number that is in harmony with other manufacturers’ estimates.

By this reckon Porsche as a highly exclusive supplier, with only two to three per cent of the total.

year of Norway awarded around 200 cars, with the hope of more if the sale would indicate that.

On the road

Handling is Porsche’s advantage, also here. It is difficult to arrest Macan on specific points. In addition, there are so many versions with different equipment and packages to get, that if there is something you wish were different, they can always offer something that helps aid.

Inside it is also quiet and nice, but then when Porsche also defined as a premium brand. It shall not stand the noise, although mirror the houses are large and provide some wind noise when the speed starts to get high – take note, by German standards.

to block the wind noise is just book your car with the hefty audio package, preferably with DAB + radio, and you have other things to listen to than wind noise.

Fierce competition

Porsche Macan is not the only car in this segment. It must go out and compete with more and more options. Lexus is heading with its new NX in this segment, and BMW has always been there with X3 . Although they are related, are also Audi Q5 an option and Mercedes-Benz has its GLK .

Land Rover is also competing for customers in the premium class but has no direct competitor, other than Evoque, which is enough to be said to be a bit on the small side for being here.

Next year at this time we see the drawing on whether Porsche has succeeded or not.

Målteknologi stopped Magath and Fulham - Fædrelandsvennen

Hangeland and Riise had to settle for 1-1.

Newly appointed Felix Magath was only about five centimeters from leading Fulham to 1-0 victory in his coaching debut. But målteknologien gave West Brom equalizer just before the end.

The opening against West Brom was not all that bad and it was the visitors from London who took the lead. After 28 minutes received Ashkan Dejagah ball after Lewis Holtby had missed it. He used one touch before he put the ball in the net.

Management held long, but not long enough to give Magath victory in his debut. For four minutes left on the game clock had mållinjeteknologi be used to determine whether the conclusion of Matej Vydra was out of line. It was the one with about five centimeter margin.

Brede Hangeland did start the match and played the full 90 minutes. John Arne Riise was substituted into the second half.

it goes Fulham on 21 points, which is one less than Cardiff. They lost 0-4 to Hull and struggling heavily. Furthermore, there are three points from Fulham Sunderland, who have one game in hand.

– We played away from home and I think that one point is good, said Magath.

Olivier Giroud was the major player in Saturday’s game and made already after five minutes for the game’s first goal. Then Arsenal could pretty much do as they pleased.

– The combination of Arsenal played a very good game and we were poor made it difficult for us. We were punished for our mistakes, said Sunderland coach Gus Poyet said.

The French striker took advantage of a huge defensive blunder by Sunderland’s Santiago Verginia and put themselves up 2-0 after half an hour. Tomas Rosicky arranged 3-0 just minutes before the break. When Laurent Koscielny headed home 4-0 over ten minutes into the second half was practically settled.

– we play like that in the next game against Manchester City we will be ridiculed, said Poyet.

Nokia Lumia 1520 - DinSide

Annonse

DinSide Nokia Lumia 1520 er først ute med flere ting: Det er Nokia første phablet, den første Windows Phone-modellen med 1080p-skjerm og den første Windows-mobilen med firekjernet prosessor.

Den er ikke bare først, men også størst: Skjermen på seks tommer gjør Lumia 1520 til en stor mobil, Nokias største Lumia hittil, derav betegnelsen phablet – altså en dings et sted mellom “phone” og “tablet”.

DinSide er i full gang med en full test, men inntil videre kan du se en gjennomgang av telefonen i videoen over. Der sammenlikner vi den med både vanlige telefoner og andre phablet-er, og ser nærmere på hva den store skjermen egentlig byr på kontra Lumia 1020. Vi tar også en kjapp titt på Nokias nye deksel, som ikke går helt etter planen.

19.02 Today, Skydrive to Onedrive - Today it

– Most people think the content is more important than the device itself. Therefore it is important for us to let our users to have their content available regardless of what device they use, says Anne Jensen, responsible for cloud service Onedrive Microsoft Norway.

now change Microsoft’s online storage service Skydrive name to Onedrive. Concurrent with the name change also relaunched the site with new features and subscription models.

– Most of our 300 million users employ three to four gigabytes of storage in the cloud. Therefore, we give seven gigabytes free. If you need more you can increase the quota by referring friends or buying more space, says Jensen.

Anne Jensen is responsible for the cloud Onedrive in Norway.

Something new
Essentially Onedrive same service Skydrive. One can store photos, videos or documents in an encrypted online storage and retrieve or display the contents on almost all computers, tablets or smartphones. Onedrive is integrated as part of Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8, but can also be used in tablets and smartphones with Android or IOS (Apple).

Onedrive is integrated with the Service Office Online – a web-based free version of Microsoft Office, so you do not need to have an Office app or Office installed on your PC to view documents, spreadsheets or presentations . Do you share documents with other changes other users make øybelikkelig be available to all.

A brand new technology in Onedrive is transcoding video. Videos you have stored in Onedrive can streamed to a device, and with transcoding, the quality of the video change from what bandwidth you have where you are. Thus one should get uninterrupted streaming of video, with a quality that is adapted to the bandwidth and the video screen is displayed.

This is the same technology that NRK and TV2 uses in its flow services.

Onedrive also got some new features for sorting and displaying images, especially for those who have large amounts of images stored. It’s also easy to share photos or documents with others, with different privacy settings. Onedrive can also automatically upload a copy of all pictures you take, regardless of which phone you use.

New subscription model
For those who pay for extra storage subscription model has become somewhat easier. Previously you had to pay for one year in advance, now you can pay on a monthly basis.

– This is convenient for those who need extra space for a while. When you stop paying for the extra space disappears nothing of what you have stored, you only lose the ability to upload more, says Jensen.

DinSide Det er forsvinnende lite forbrukerelektronikk som produseres i Norge. Ikke fordi vi ikke kan, men fordi det ikke lønner seg. Norske arbeidere er dyre i drift, derfor settes all produksjon som regel bort til typiske lavkostland som Kina og Taiwan.

Produseres på Hadeland

Men det er ikke alltid det lønner seg likevel, skal vi tro selskapet Bartec Pixavi, som står bak den meget spesielle smartmobilen Pixavi Impact X. For når det gjelder nisjeprodukter som ikke skal masseproduseres kan slike ting løses vel så greit her på bjerget.

Og Pixavi Impact X er virkelig et nisjeprodukt.

Mobilen er av det svært robuste slaget, den skal til og med tåle eksplosjoner, skriver Teknisk Ukeblad.

Salgs og Markedsdirektør Thomas Zaubi (t.v.) og prosjektleder Andreas Parr Bjørnsund gleder seg til å vise fram mobilen til verden i neste uke. (Foto: Bartec Pixavi)

Mobilen produseres hos Hapro på Hadeland, og sentralt i produktet står et kretskort laget av Bartec Pixavi selv. Dette er spesialkonstruert med tanke på at mobilen skal tåle det meste av påkjenninger som kan oppstå i tøffe miljøer, som olje- og gruveindustrien.

Dobbel batterikapasitet

Impact X er noe tykkere enn de slankeste mobilene på markedet, men har til gjengjeld et dobbelt så kraftig batteri som “normale” smartmobiler. Dessuten er den utstyrt med tykkere, herdet Gorilla-glass foran den 4,6 tommer store skjermen.

Operativsystemet er vanlig Android 4.3 Jelly Bean fra Google.

Og prisen? Mellom 20 og 25.000 kroner, noe som visstnok ikke skal skremme potensielle kunder innenfor offshore og andre krevende miljøer. Vi gleder oss uansett til å se den i levende live. Mobilen vises fram under årets Mobile World Congress i Barcelona i neste uke, og skal være på markedet i juni.

Google is working with super advanced mobile - Hardware.no

“Project Tango” doing things you have not seen before.

Google has thrown himself into enough a wild project, this time called Project Tango . It all consists of an early prototype of a mobile phone, which uses the Xbox Kinect-like sensors to measure and discover everything that happens around you, writes Ars Technica.

According to technology manager for the project, Johnny Lee, they have a desire to give mobile phones a humanoid form of understanding of space and movement. By phone cram full of super advanced sensors.

Shall measure all

The preliminary prototype of Project Tango is an Android mobile with five-inch screen, equipped with two processors to work solely for calculating the data from the sensors. On the back sits a 4 megapixel camera, a depth sensor and a secondary camera for motion measurement.

Currently, Project Tango is a very closed project, and Google will only open its doors to 200 developers, provided they manage to ovebevise them that their ideas are good enough. Thus, roughly a while before we see some similar sensors in mobile phones soon.

can create maps of all

Project Tango, Google aims to “revolutionize” navigation and “augmented reality” (Augment Reality).

– Our current prototype is a 5-inch phone with custom hardware and software designed to record all movements of the device in three dimensions, while also creating a map of the surroundings, explains Lee.

Simply by combining the information from the sensors can create a 3D model of all that is around them. These 3D models can be used to create better navigation solutions, also for indoor use – as in a shopping mall.

Next week comes a wealth of new phones

WhatsApp entrepreneur applied for a job at Facebook - was rejected - Reuters

Zuckerberg and Facebook have dug deep into their pockets to ensure message client WhatsApp. Staggering 115 billion they had out with. And the question is whether Zuckerberg regrets that he did not hire Acton in 2009.

Acquisition is referred to as the Facebook’s biggest investment ever, and the sum is almost exactly 19 times as high as when Facebook bought photo sharing service Instagram in 2012.

Acton used Twitter to express his disappointment after rejection of job application in 2009:

“Facebook rejected me. It was a great opportunity to make acquaintance with some amazing people. Looking forward to life’s next adventure. “

When Brian Acton did not get a job at Facebook, he decided to start their own band together with Jan Koum, a colleague from Yahoo, where they both had worked . Together they formed the messaging service WhatsApp.

RICH MAN: One half of WhatsApp duo, Jan Koum. Here, during a conference in Munich in January. Photo: AFP

Koum originally from Ukraine, and it should have been his experience of the surveillance was going on in the old Soviet Union, which provided the inspiration to create WhatsApp.

Idea was that WhatsApp would be a kind of counterpoint to the totalitarian mindset. Application function should, according to an interview reprinted in The Guardian, is to protect democracy and freedom of speech.

Service has recently exploded in growth, and from April 2013 to the end of the year grew client with 250 million monthly users.

The application allows users to send messages with pictures, sound, video and text for free, as long as one has access to the Internet.

Norwegian experts believe it is the search for new and younger users who lured Facebook to former competitor WhatsApp.

Well, Microsoft has released OneDrive - Hardware.no

Celebrates New Name with 100 GB of free storage to anyone lucky chosen one.

Microsoft’s cloud storage service has been a sore point for the company for almost a year, when it appeared that the British company BSkyB said they could not use their name. Microsoft announced in January that they would change the name of SkyDrive to OneDrive, and now the change is about to be implemented.

New name, some new features

You can now access the OneDrive.com, although SkyDrive.com work and log in with your Microsoft account. All previous SkyDrive logos for both Windows and Microsoft has now been replaced with “One” instead of “Sky”, although OneDrive.com with us still shows a SkyDrive logo. These little things will probably be fixed in the next few days.

OneDrive offers a few changes compared to its predecessor, so that kameraappen on Android can now be set to automatically upload photos to the cloud service, a feature that has been available on iOS and Windows Phone 8 a long time.

price for OneDrive is natural enough just the same as before the name change. You get 7 GB of free storage, and 3GB of extra storage space if you set up your phone to automatically upload photos to OneDrive.

You can also get additional storage space by recruiting friends to the service.

Get 100 GB of free storage

To celebrate the new name, Microsoft will soon also hand out 100 GB of free storage to the first 100,000 users who register for the new service. Just when the campaign begins’m not quite sure, but Pocket-Lint writes that Microsoft will announce the campaign in the coming days.

It is also available for existing customers will be able to take advantage of the temporary promotion.

SkyDrive OneDrive came out well in our collecting test:

Klipp, glue and fotofikling - Dagbladet.no

The mainstream media is struggling to keep up in the quest for dominance on the social web. I have previously written about how shareable are more important than clickability when a new generation of viral media services Upworthy and BuzzFeed builds tremendous traffic through presenting issues many will share in social media.

Some make it even easier, for example by to share historical photos they rapped on the web.

This is the recipe for success to youngsters Xavier Di Petta (17) and Kyle Cameron (19), which is behind the Twitter account @ HistoryInPics. In writing the account, which was created in July 2013, almost 1.1 million followers. By comparison, the renowned American online magazine Slate and the popular sharing service BuzzFeed both just over 750,000 followers.

17-year-old Di Petta has allered established his own company, with more staff and open trade, writes The Atlantic.

When something works out on the internet, it is copied. Competing accounts @ HistoryPics, @ HistoricalPics, HistoryInPix @, @ and @ History_Pics AncientPics doing the same, and the various accounts borrows quite shamelessly from each other. Several fast approaching one million followers, and several claim to be “original”.

Many of the images are shared by famous people from the culture, society and politics. Here parts Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Jimi Hendrix and Marilyn Monroe room with Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr. and Adolf Hitler.

also spec it with a wide range of spectacular and peculiar motives. It is played shamelessly and virtuoso on our urge an association with the past. Nostalgia is a keyword. In addition, it is often played on humor and sentimentality. Here are the cute kids and weird, ancient technology, comedy and tragedy.

People love it. According to Alexis C. Madrigal in The Atlantic divide messages from @ HistoryInPics an average of more than 1600 users, and favorite felt by more than 1,800.

common accounts is a very liberal intercourse with copyright.

practiced unrestrained cut-and-paste. Few of the images are credited, whether it is material that may be in the public domain or copyright-related photos taken by famous photographers who obviously are protected by copyright.

Photographic authenticity and correct history presentations are not in priority.

Gizmodo blogger Matt Novak is among those who have proven that manipulated images abound on @ HistoryInPics and other Twitter accounts, as they do also in Tumblr blogs, Reddit, and the viral web. He also spoke with one of the ablest jueksemakerne.

One of Novaks examples is a pic to imagine John Lennon and Che Guevara interacting with each guitar. But the head of Che is photoshopped into the picture. The person to the right of the original image is Wayne “Tex” Gabriel, guitarist Lennon’s Plastic Ono Band.

Novak publishes both the manipulated image to the original, which from what I have been able to ascertain the taken by Lennon’s close friend photographer Bob Gruen. But the picture is, ironically enough, not credited with Novak either.

Sometimes the photo fiddling in Photoshop, other times it just jug. The alleged image of the scientist Nikola Tesla who swim teacher is in fact a picture of a very different man.

To flatten and falsified history, while we are tricked into believing that we get insight.

Among faghistorikere it is this lack of scientific substance which is the biggest objection to image sharing. Trivia and tragedy equivalent. Iconic historical photographs vacuumed context and linked seldom or never to sources, says Rebecca Onion, who writes the history blog of the online magazine Slate.

It stings enough too little that two youngsters can get success in social media by compromising with the story, while professional historians struggle to get a minimum of attention for its efforts to explain the past, and thus help us understand the future.

Three men feared dead at sea in college - online newspaper

Posted 2/14/14 9:31 Last updated 14/02/14 10:19

– We are in the process of starting up the search at sea, police said.

Lindesnes / Oslo (NTB-Elin B. Øvrebø): Searches for the three men who are missing at sea at Lindesnes will continue Friday. Then it will be sought after apparently deceased people.

Chief of Staff at the College police, Bard Austad, states that there will be new search for the three missing but Friday morning is not the details of the search ready.

– There will be new search, but so far we have not come up with the details of where and how. I’ve talked a lot with the Rescue Coordination Centre, Coast Guard and rescue boats to gather impressions about what has happened and what should be done, he said.

Continued storm

– We are in the process of starting up the search at sea, and it will be strandsøk during the day. The wind has calmed somewhat, but it still blows fresh and according to weather it should blow up. In such wind and current conditions we can not go out with divers or videobåt, place chief of staff.

However, it is clear that the rescue coordination center (RCC) will not be other than an advisory role in searches and that it will be put into a helicopter in exploration work.

yesterday calls for the money to children's cancer research - Todays Business

– There is a significant difference between Norway on the one hand and Sweden and Denmark on the other, says Einar Stenvold, who is chief physician at the Children’s Clinic at Oslo University Hospital – Rikshospitalet.

He dreams that Norway shall be the same as the Swedes have, namely a children’s cancer fund. The Swedish Barncancerfonden distributed 143.7 million Swedish kronor (135.6 million Norwegian kroner exchange rate) in 2012, while the Norwegian Children’s Cancer Society handed out 1.7 million dollars.

He and colleagues collaborate with Nordic colleagues on research projects and has also received money from both the Swedish and Danish children’s cancer fund, among other things, study tours.

– I’m grateful for it. But I think it’s a bit wrong, we should be able to pay it yourself, he says.

Stenvold points out that some get money for research from the various health authorities or local funds, but believes his academic not get the opportunity to perform the studies they want.

Facts about childhood cancer in Norway

Around 150 children get cancer every year in Norway most common forms of childhood cancer is acute leukemia (blood cancer), brain tumors and solid (solid) tumors in various organs. incidence of childhood cancer is about the same in Norway as in the rest of northern Europe and North America. Some of the drugs used in adult cancer patients, can also be used on children, but some seem worse in children. Children must also get other doses and follow different behandlingsløp than adults.

Cancer Society difficult
In Norway, the Norwegian Cancer Society a very important source of funding for research on cancer, but not when it comes to child cancer, according superior.

– It is very difficult to get money from them. It seems clear to us that if they do not prioritize children’s cancer, says Stenvold said.

– One explanation may be that there are so few, about 150 children under age 15 each year, who get cancer. Thus, the small groups and have the opportunity to make studies, says press officer Erik Vigander Cancer Society said.

When there are few patients to research, it becomes harder to do thorough research.

– Relevant
But he stressed that research on cancer among children is relevant also for the Cancer Society.

– If there is some good applications for studies of childhood cancer, we are of course positive that, in line with other research applications, ‘says he.

He points out that the Cancer Society supports research into cancers that affect both children and adults, as well as basic research.

– There are also children for good, he said.

– Stood silent
the occasion of World barnekreftdag Saturday calls for Kids Cancer Society larger Norwegian contribution to research in this area.

– One in five children affected die. This statistic has stood still for too long. We need a greater contribution to important research projects that can give a positive development. Norway is a rich country that needs to take a larger share of this responsibility, says Marianne Gunnerud, deputy head of the Children Cancer Society in Norway.

She admits that the association now has been more concerned to provide support to children and families in hospitals than to raise money for research.

– Now we want to contribute more, she says.

Both Gunnerud and Stenvold want including more research on late effects in children who have survived.

Stenvold think the lack of research funding does not affect the survival rate among children of cancer patients in Norway. He says Norway is among the best in terms of survival for some forms of leukemia, while we are worse off in terms of some forms of brain tumor.

Hope they can make each other richer - NRK

Publisert 15.02.2014, kl. 08.07.

I går varslet det Røkke-eide konsernet at de vil investere for å gjøre produksjonen mer lønnsom ved mottakene i Stamsund og Melbu og Båtsfjord.

Ifølge konsernsjef Thomas Farstad skal Norway Seafoods investere mellom 150 og 200 millioner kroner i filetanleggene i Nordland og Finnmark fram til 2017.

Om lag 70 prosent av råstoffet som foredles av Norway Seafoods blir levert av kystflåten.

Den varslede satsingen fra Norway Seafoods i Nordland er godt nytt for fiskerne, mener daglig leder Steinar Jonassen i Nordland Fylkes Fiskarlag.

– Både Melbu og Stamsund har vært viktig for kystfiskeflåten og det vil de også være i fremtiden med den satsingen som nå gjøres, sier Jonassen til NRK.no.

– Styrker kystflåtens muligheter

Ifølge Norway Seafoods har ikke filetindustrien langs kysten tjent penger på 15 år, og flere tusen arbeidsplasser er forsvunnet. Permitteringene har blitt stadig flere og lenger også for Norway Seafoods' rundt 600 ansatte i Nord-Norge.

I Stamsund, hvor det jobber 100 ansatte er det allerede etablert et nytt skift på 50 personer, og det planlegges også å øke aktiviteten på Melbu med et skift om vinteren.

Jonassen tror ikke det bare er Norway Seafoods som kan tjene penger på omstruktureringen. Nå øyner han håp om at også fiskerne kan nyte godt av satsingen.

– Jeg tror og håper det skal bidra til at også fiskeflåtens lønnsomhet kan styrkes gjennom en høyning av prisene. At de er i stand til å betale godt for gode kvalitetsråvarer.

Varsler permitteringer

Til tross for at den videre driften ved anleggene i Stamsund, Melbu og Båtsfjord nå ser ut til å være sikret, varsler Norway Seafoods permitteringer i høstmånedene. Men selv om dørene i perioder vil stenges for fiskerne, lar ikke Jonassen i fiskarlaget seg bekymre.

– Høstperioden er tradisjonelt en periode på året hvor det ikke drives så veldig mye fiske. I den grad at Norway Seafoods går inn og stenger anleggene sine i den perioden, får vi ta det til orientering og levere til andre anlegg i området.

Han utelukker heller ikke at Norway Seafoods kan velge å holde anleggene åpne hvis de kan tjene penger på det.

Skuffelse i nord

Samtidig som ansatte i Melbu og Stamsund trekker et lettelsens sukk, er stemningen nedstemt i Finnmark.

Anlegget i Båtsfjord består, men Norway Seafoods ønsker å selge anlegget i Mehamn og bygge ned Hammerfest.

– Jeg sitter med en ganske stor klump i magen og er veldig fortvilt på vegne av egen kommune, men også på vegne av Kyst-Finnmark, sa ordfører i Gamvik Inga Manndal til NRK fredag.

Hennes kollega i Vestvågøy var langt mer positiv da han fikk vite om selskapets nye planer.

– Dette er veldig positive signaler både for Stamsund og Melbu. I dag er Røkke en helt i Vestvågøy, sa ordfører Jonny Finstad (H) i Vestvågøy.

80 mister jobben

Endringene i Norway Seafoods medfører at 80 ansatte i nord mister jobben, samtidig som flere blir sesongarbeidere.

– Dagens virksomhet i Norway Seafood gir et underskudd i et normalår på 25 millioner kroner. Kapasiteten i anleggene er tre ganger større enn produksjonsvolumet. Det er åpenbart for alle at nye grep må til for å sikre foredlingen og arbeidsplassene her, sier konsernsjef Thomas Farstad i en pressemelding fra selskapet.

Han viser til at foredlingen videreføres i sju av de åtte kommunene i Nordland og Finnmark der Norway Seafoods har anlegg.
