In a world where NFT breaking down digital and cultural barriers, nothing is more important than preserving the identity of our culture and making it relevant and fair.

Enter Tacollection, a community of taco lovers, taqueros, taqueras, taquerias, and foodies with over ten thousand memberships who want to increase taco-lover interactions, breaking down geographic or language barriers while keeping it culturally accurate.

Founded by Diana Abrego Aguilar and her husband, the Tacollection aims to shape the metaverse for new generations “before someone else turns NFT tacos into just another ‘Half off margarita and Taco Tuesday’ shill,” the founders explained to BELatina.

“We hope to be able to create a community that attracts the interest of the best taquerias, taqueros and enthusiasts and brings them together in a knowledge forum but also across borders,” they said.

BELatina had the pleasure of speaking with Aguilar about this wonderful project, and here is what he had to say:

Tell us about a time when Tacollection has already inspired you

The process of designing the different layers of the Tacollection artwork helped me revisit my memories and reminisce about places I’ve been in Mexico and events that had an emotional impact on my life.

Whether it is an archaeological site (like the ruins of Chichén Itzá), the trajineras from Xochimilco, or handcrafted alebrijes (Pedro Linares López) or representing elements of the March 8 Women’s March in Mexico City against feminicides, these things are close to me. I want them to be displayed through the artwork for the benefit of anyone who knows them or wants to learn more but also to teach my daughters about their heritage and the social issues I hope they don’t will ever be confronted (but if they do, they know there are places of strength they can turn to).

It’s Tuesday in Teotihuacán and everyone is running for Tacos!

Do you think NFT resources are not widely available to the Spanish-speaking community? If so, how can Tacollection contribute to this?

The great thing about web3 it’s that he doesn’t care what language you speak or what country you’re from. Web3 and crypto/NFT systems and the reality behind them are available worldwide.

There is a democratization and decentralization of finance that can fundamentally change Latin America, but the current challenge is understanding and adoption that precede market penetration.

Take a look at Venezuela. One of Tacollection’s team members, who is Venezuelan, understands the reality of blockchain/web3 lead finance and asked to be paid in crypto, not bolivars.

Another example is the success of Los Muertosa Mexican-themed project founded by a non-Mexican national [in a] world [that] yearns for Spanish-speaking culture. The challenge remains adoption. We hope that the Tacollection [will help] create interest to foster wider adoption in Spanish-speaking communities.

The biggest changes and demand come when you start seeing the presentation and content layers natively developed in Spanish instead of being copied from English and translated into Spanish. The principles are there, but our team wants Tacollection to spark interest and understanding, given where we are in the adoption curves. If we achieve this, we will be very proud.

As part of our ramp-up, we are setting aside blocks of time to help taquerias set up their MetaMask/wallet so they can start moving some of their business practices to web3.

Additionally, we will also use our Discord Channel as a way to build peer-to-peer knowledge-sharing networks to better leverage their business. Our team wants to be the web3 resource center for taqueria knowledge exchange.

What motivates you the most in this project?

I’m incredibly interested in the authenticity of the project, from the exchange of knowledge on the Discord channel to the representation of Mexican culture contained within the token. It is the project of a first generation Mexican who lives in the United States. I want to make sure these elements are true to their essence, welcoming the world into conversations where we can truly demonstrate the richness and diversity of tacos and Mexican culture, while at the same time creating a project for my daughters that gives a place to better understand their roots and their identity.

More importantly, I want my daughters to know that they can monetize their passions, and I want them to live a life in pursuit of things they love. Building a community of taco enthusiasts seems like a good way to demonstrate this.

Do you think Tacollection can be a generational wealth creation point for the Latino community?

Creating generational wealth for the Latino community is a great charter, and it starts with creating a broader understanding of web3, cryptocurrency, and decentralized finance. To do this, you need to captivate people and give them a reason to care. We think it can start with the taco.

Once you set up a wallet, you start listening more to the concepts behind cryptocurrency and decentralized finance. By doing so, you are taking the first steps towards adoption. If there are enough people who start their first wallet in Latin America because they want to join our community, I will feel some satisfaction for having done our part to contribute to financial change in the Latin American community.

At the micro level, we want to create opportunities for every member, taqueria or taquero, that joins our community. The ability to build a larger audience and even monetize your knowledge within the community can dramatically raise the standard of living for a Mexican taqueria or taquero owner.

We want to know these stories, and we want to share them, but above all, we want to encourage them. We want to make sure there is an opportunity for generational wealth available to our token holders.

So authentic and popular they need a steel door to control the crowds. Authentic French tacos. 🇲🇽🇫🇷#sharetacos #YourNFTcollection #NFT #NFTCommunity https://t.co/DIvYPczOs4

What do you hope everyone understands about Tacollection?

This is not an NFT project; it is a symbolic community. Artwork is fun, but that’s only a small part of community value. It is an artistic token that reflects Mexican culture. It’s a token that gives you access to a curated community of people who really love tacos and want to share their knowledge of the art of taco making and share best practices around running taquerias. This can take many forms – recipes and images, translatable online courses, Mexican taco tours, successful taquería exchange forums, and token ownership for merchandising purposes.

Your experience begins when you acquire the token, as it opens the door to “members only” channels on our Discord server, where much more value is exchanged.

Do you have anything else to share with the BELatina News audience?

The web3 space is currently dominated by the Asia-Pacific region and the United States and is expanding into other regions. As with any other technology and financial trend, being the first doesn’t always mean the best. As in traditional markets, creating a successful project depends on offering a value proposition that no one else has before. We have the opportunity to create an authentic Mexican/Latin project that contributes to Latin America truly embracing all this offer of web3 and decentralization.

Besides generating interest in the long-term benefits of decentralization, I appreciate the culture. I want this project to portray real tacos and Latino realities and release it before another taco project sets in with a proper version of the taco wrapped around Margaritas and sour cream.

The Oakland A’s have finally met their match. Councilman Noel Gallo bravely introduces two important bills to end the bullying of the city of Oakland by the A’s.

Gallo convinced his Council colleagues to vote unanimously for a public hearing and independent third-party analysis of the costs, benefits and risks to the city of funding the A’s stadium and luxury condo project at Howard Terminal.

He also introduced legislation to impose a measure on the November 2022 ballot to allow residents to vote on whether to spend public funds on the private development of A.

We salute Noel and encourage the Council to support his efforts.

Oakland faces many critical issues, including homelessness, affordable housing, crime, and keeping schools open. City officials need to focus on getting these issues under control. Instead, the A’s try to bully them into spending more billions on their new stadium and luxury housing project.

Let’s peel the layers of the onion.

The A’s promise union jobs. But the truth is that all the new jobs they promote are construction jobs that could be created at the Colosseum if they built their stadium there. And it wouldn’t cost $1 billion because the land is already approved for development and there are fewer infrastructure requirements than at the Howard Terminal. Meanwhile, if the A’s build at Howard Terminal, they weaken a working port and threaten to lose hundreds of well-paying ILWU union jobs.

The A’s threaten to leave and eliminate Oakland’s last athletic team if they don’t succeed. Right now, there are fewer fans at A games than there are homeless people living on the streets of Oakland. We should care more about our homeless, mostly black residents than 2,000 to 3,000 baseball fans.

The A’s say they are adding 3,000 new homes to the desperately needed city. But the A’s are reluctant to make more than a measly 15% of those units affordable. They do not specify affordability income levels. Will homeless people be included?

Unlike every other developer, the A’s don’t contribute to community benefits, especially in the East Oakland area where emergency affordable housing is badly needed.

But rather, in a deceptive and clever ploy, the A’s would make the community pay for their benefits, unwittingly accelerating the wave of gentrification that could increase homelessness. They reneged on past promises and pushed people like Margaret Gordon, an outspoken community advocate, to drop her support for the team.

More infuriating than all of the above, the A’s negotiate with Las Vegas as they arrogantly bully Oakland.

Many people believe this is all a sham. The A’s exploit a potential site in Oakland only to get a good deal in Vegas. And, ironically, they enrich themselves further by simply “occupying” the Colosseum site and profiting from the increased land value of their part-ownership share of the Colosseum.

Questioning the co-owner’s financial ability, city staff raised the price to sell his half interest to a black-led group for more than $30,000,000.00 than that of Alameda County, who owns the remaining 50% of the Colosseum.

Oakland doesn’t need the A’s.

Oakland needs to deal with its own critical issues. The city’s Department of Race and Equity should be at the table with the city attorney to ensure that the financial interests of Oakland residents are protected and treated fairly.

But even if these issues weren’t so urgent, city officials need to stand firm and not let any developer intimidate and disrespect them the way the A’s disrespect them.

Thank you, Mr. Gallo, for standing up for the residents of Oakland and not bending the knee to the A’s.

We urge the Council to back Mr. Gallo by taking the A’s public spending request to voters in November. Let voters guide the decision of whether the City should fund the A’s or take care of our own problems.

We encourage all voters to demand that the Council let the people vote.

Josh Jensen, founder of Calera Winery and pioneer of pinot noir in California, died on Saturday June 11 at his home in San Francisco. He was 78 years old.

“He was larger than life, a dreamer, an idealist, a generous spirit, a man devoted to his friends, his community and his family, and above all to the ideals of friendship, truth, fairness, good food and good wine, and stewardship of the land,” said his daughter, Silvie Jensen, who was with him when he died. “He will be sorely missed by all of us.”

His tumultuous journey to plant pinot noir atop Mount Harlan in the remote mountains east of California’s Salinas Valley was detailed in Marq de Villiers’ 1994 book, The Heartbreak Grape: A California Winemaker’s Search for the Perfect Pinot Noir. The quest began in Oxford, where Jensen studied social anthropology in the early 1970s. He fell in love with wine while touring Europe, eventually working the harvest at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and Domaine Dujac in Burgundy. as well as at Château-Grillet in the Rhône Valley.

Upon returning to California, he spent nearly two years searching for true limestone soil, which he believed was essential to growing quality Pinot. He found it atop the 3,278-foot peak of Mount Harlan and planted three vineyards there in 1975. During those early years, he lived in a trailer with his wife and young daughter surrounded by nature. remote wilderness of the Gabilan Mountains, which straddle the border. of Monterey and San Benito counties.

After his first wines caught the eye in 1978, Jensen trademarked the Calera clone of Pinot Noir and planted three more vineyards. He expanded to small quantities of Chardonnay, Aligoté and Viognier, of which he was one of the first producers in California.

In 1990, he convinced the federal government that Mt. Harlan deserved its own designation as an American wine region, creating one of the only monopoly designations in the country. Wine critic Robert Parker called Calera “California’s Romanée-Conti” and Jensen achieved celebrity status in Japan after the popular manga, drops of godshowcased its wines.

In August 2017, Jensen, whose three children were uninterested in the wine business, sold Calera to the Duckhorn portfolio. “It’s wonderful, it really is,” Jensen told me that week. “I’ve considered this move for the past few years and at 73 I don’t have the energy I once had. I thought new faces and new blood would be nice, and they’re the best people to trust with my life’s work. They’re excited about a new business in a new area of ​​California for them, so it’s really mutually beneficial.

I have enjoyed the pleasure of Jensen’s company a few times. I once attended dinner at the World of Pinot Noir in 2016 when it was honored as a Rock Star of Wine. Never one to shy away from celebrating in style, Jensen was dressed in a cherry red leather jacket. As the wine flowed and the music sounded, Jensen danced with a broad smile.

On another occasion, I shared dinner with Jensen and a few other winemakers at the historic Dickinson House on the Eden Rift property, just a few miles from the Calera winery. He opened up old vintages, including a stellar 1987 Calera from Selleck Vineyard, and wowed us with stories from his life and career.

Brewer-Clifton’s Greg Brewer remembers the stormy evening in December 1992 when he first tasted Calera, specifically the 1987 bottling from Jensen Vineyard. “It changed my life,” says Brewer. “It set me on the path to including stem and naming gravity and block. Literally everything I’ve done since with Pinot Noir has tied into that aesthetic and the energy that he deployed long before me.

Brewer places Jensen alongside the late Burt Williams of Williams-Selyem atop Mount Rushmore of California Pinot Noir. “It was a generation of people who took Pinot from nothing in California to a real deal,” he says. “Without them, none of us would be able to do what we do today.”

“Josh came from the heart.” —Richard Sanford

Richard Sanford, who planted pinot noir at the Sanford & Benedict vineyard in Santa Barbara County in 1971, knew Jensen well. Decades ago, they met quarterly to “rip each other’s wines” in a group called the Small Winery Technical Society. “It was about pioneering and priming,” Sanford recalls. “We learned a lot from each other.”

They became friends and shared many meals around the world, including dinners laden with white truffles in San Francisco during the annual Pinot Days.

“Josh came from the heart,” Sanford says. “Even though he liked the plumage and the dress, there was also a more spiritual aspect to him. We loved him.

In 2007, Jensen hired Mike Waller, and he has been Calera’s winemaker ever since. “He was one of those guys that you go to work for and you don’t leave,” says Waller, noting that cellar master Abraham Corona has been at the winery for 35 years. “He was very generous with all of us. We were like an extended family to him.

Waller is now responsible for keeping Jensen’s dream alive. “I want to make sure I can continue that legacy,” Waller says. “I have a responsibility to keep Calera true to Josh’s vision.”

Jensen is survived by his three children, Silvie, Duggan and Chloe Jensen, and five grandchildren.

We had the pleasure of chatting with Mike Simmons, Founder of the SILO Auto Club in Indianapolis, Jay Farmer, Motor District Manager in Westfield, and Chris Diasio, President of Putnam Park Road Course in Greencastle. These three car enthusiasts have something in common besides being enthusiasts and collectors: they are building a community that brings together current and future car collectors in a fun and unique way.

Simmons, Farmer and Diasio are thrilled to be the 15th year sponsor of Artomobilia, Indiana’s premier automotive event with a weekend of exhilarating experiences and its flagship event taking place in the heart of Carmel, Indiana .

We spoke with each of the three aforementioned sponsors about their respective properties and the enthusiast/collector culture they are building.

SILO Auto Club – Indianapolis

What started as a necessity for car storage has grown into a passion to bring car enthusiasts together for a more social aspect of car collecting. Simmons moved from Zionsville to downtown Indianapolis and wanted easy access to his vintage cars. He bought a building that had more space than he needed, and the SILO Auto Club was established soon after. Today, the club has become a dynamic and trendy social club for its members.

“We ended up building the club, putting in a kitchen and getting a liquor license,” Simmons explained. “We are a private club for car enthusiasts. We have members in the Lockerbie area and throughout downtown who have relatively expensive real estate, but no room for car storage. We also have people from Fishers, Carmel, Zionsville, down south and everywhere keeping their cars at the club. We also regularly organize several events at the club. »

The SILO welcomes a new series, “The Pitz’ Stop with John Pitz”, in collaboration with the co-founder of Artomobilia, John Pitz.

“We’re starting to do more events with music, and we asked John [Pitz] to help us,” Simmons shared. “He’s such a great guy, and we’ve started sort of a monthly series where we’ll do car-focused panels and interviews. The first one was with John and Paul Page, which was a lot of fun. We could do some around vintage races, rallies and around [car] collection. So, the series will be an automotive enthusiast themed topic each month as we move forward.

The SILO Auto Club houses 60-65 cars in its main facility, and Simmons shared that they recently expanded into another building just down the street that can house an additional 40-50.

“We are looking at potentially expanding the building and looking at other storage options in the building,” Simmons said. “As we come out of COVID, we’re starting to think about [expanding] a little more proactively.

Automotive District – Westfield

The Motor District strives to be the center of gravity for Hamilton County’s automotive community” with our 12-acre campus and the 13 buildings we have planned that will house 120-150 garages for collectors, enthusiasts and enthusiasts. of all types. The campus also includes three supporting commercial buildings. Motor District is a unique place that meets the community and lifestyle needs of those who are passionate about their interests,” Farmer said. “Without exception, it’s the perfect home for automotive enthusiasts, but it will also be a community for many other interests, hobbies and passions – motorcycles, boats, RVs, ATVs and home office, urban cabin or getaway.”

This spring, Motor District opened its Phase 2 buildings which will be completed by summer. “Phase 2 buildings have a new variety of sizes and configurations,” Farmer said. “The pace of interest and sales in Phases 1 and 2 indicates that we are on the right track.”

The Motor District is more than just storage; it offers a private and secure community that its customers own and customize to meet their needs and the needs of their families. “As a result, we are seeing a wide variation in builds and uses, some focused on display and entertainment of collections, others on recreation and still others on the practicalities of expanding the footprint of your primary residence,” Farmer shared. “From an investment/financial perspective, Motor District ownership makes a lot of sense compared to the alternatives, both financially and practically. Motor District makes it super easy to own and customize with everything you need and nothing you don’t; the ability to own and access a space at any time is compelling.

The Motor District is an ideal community venue for all types of events, not the least of which are automotive related. “We are expanding our events that we host weekly beyond our open days with partners like Pristine Auto Spa, Hagerty, Dynamat and others, to include Cars & Coffee – we call it Mocha District – Garage Club events and even IndyCar and Formula 1 Watch Parties,” Farmer said. “You will also see our owners hosting an increasing number of private and public events in their spaces. funds for a local children’s charity and included Indy 500 winner Tony Kanaan.

Putnam Park – Greencastle road course

Putman Park is more than a race track for racing teams, auto clubs and enthusiasts. This is a 200+ acre park and country club for members, and they also host social events for members and their families. Additionally, Putnam Park offers on-site storage for car collectors. Diasio shared what makes his circuit, facilities and garages unique from others in the area.

“Putnam Park isn’t just for racing,” Diasio stressed. “It’s for car clubs and car enthusiasts. Even though it’s 30 miles west of Indy, it’s still a big part of local car enthusiasts, especially in Zionsville, Carmel, north and south Indianapolis. We have a lot of people interested in our facilities. We have everything from Hondas to Exotics racing together. Groups are based on your experience level, not necessarily your car speed.

Diasio shared that his goal was to get a lot of people who own great cars to pull their cars out of their garages and take them to the track at Putnam Park to “stretch their legs.”

“What I’m really trying to do is attract people who aren’t necessarily interested in ‘track days’, but people with nice cars who just want to stretch their legs and don’t care. no lap times,” Diasio said. “You can do it in a safe environment, at least a few times a year, and enjoy the car it was designed for. I don’t think Enzo Ferrari designed these cars thinking, ‘God, I hope that they stay in garages and never get driven, that would be my ideal situation!”

Diasio also talked about the social aspect of his racetrack and clubhouse.

“It’s also about the social aspect of the club,” Diasio said. “Members go out, drive the track, then they go hang out at the clubhouse, ride the simulators, play pool, have a drink at the [clubhouse] bar and talk about cars, work and life. We have members with Mustangs and members with Ferraris. They all have their own passions, but just like at Artomobilia, we all come together because we love cars.

Putman Park also offers air-conditioned garages with top-notch televisions and security systems.

“I don’t build old-fashioned private garages anymore,” Diasio explained. “You isolate yourself. I opened this ‘open concept’ garage in 2020 which holds 12 cars – six and six – and you are surrounded by all these beautiful cars. It’s like you’re in your own little [car] museum. We are also different in the way we build our garages. It’s all concrete block construction. Race teams love our garages because they are top notch garages that other tracks considered great tracks don’t have. The teams have a great working environment and they feel comfortable.

Lewis Hamilton explains what he loves about the USA and how Formula 1 has developed in the country since his first visit.

Formula 1 failed to break into the American market in the 1980s and early 2000s. Motorsport fans in the United States still preferred the household names of NASCAR and IndyCar to F1.

However, the Circuit of the Americas welcomed Formula 1 to the United States with open arms in Austin, Texas.

Lewis Hamilton won the 2014 United States Grand Prix finishing just ahead of teammate Nico Rosberg. He had already become a celebrity in the country after appearing on the TODAY show a week before the race.

Lewis Hamilton describes the ever-growing F1 culture and New York City

The 2014 world champion spoke to his fans and the media in New York during his visit for the TODAY interview.

Asked what he likes about this particular city, Hamilton said: “Growing up and watching TV, I just remember different movies. Seeing New York and many cities in the United States, you always dream to visit here. So when you come here, all these tall buildings going up, the weather has been amazing.

He was delighted to see the change in people’s perception of Formula 1. According to him, few people seemed enthusiastic about the sport when the Briton last visited America.

He added: “The first few years I came here, I didn’t think people really knew too much about F1. It’s great that he’s growing. Also, with the people coming down today and the road signs, I had positive energy today.

Hamilton supports Miami Heat

Much to the sadness of New Yorkers, Hamilton is a Miami Heat fan. When asked what his favorite American sport is, Hamilton was quick to bring up the NBA.

He added, “I don’t really know in the NFL. But Miami Heat, especially the last two years, watching the seven-game Finals has been amazing.

United States of America-based sports fan Anozie Ugenyi said in New York on Friday that unfair refereeing handed the Super Eagles defeat in their second friendly match of the US tour.

News Agency of Nigeria reports that the under-strength Super Eagles suffered a 0-1 loss to Ecuador.

The game was played Thursday at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, New Jersey, USA.

In coach José Peseiro’s first outing with the team, the under-strength Eagles fought valiantly but were unlucky to lose 1-2 to Mexico in Dallas, Texas. Saturday.

Ugenyi, co-founder of the Nigerian Sports and Cultural Carnival in New Jersey, told NAN it was clear the referee had refused to use the video assistant referee despite protests.

He said: “There were questionable calls from the referee which angered many Nigerians including Amaju Pinnick, the president of the Nigerian Football Federation.

“Pinnick protested a lot about this in the VIP booth where he was seated with other Nigerian officials.

“According to what VAR means, the referee is supposed to have used it and maybe awarded two penalty kicks against Ecuador.

“But he did not do it.”

Ugenyi, however, praised the team for the zeal displayed during the match, although he lamented their inability to convert the scoring chances they had into goals.

He said: “I am of the opinion that we could have won if we had taken risks.

“The best striker missed three chances with the goalkeepers, on which we would have scored.”

He said, however, that it was also interesting to say that there was team cohesion.

“My advice is to keep them together and instill some confidence in the homegrown players,” Ugenyi said.

The football enthusiast noted that the match was excellent with the momentum passing from one side to the other.

He said: “Ecuador pressed in the first half and the Super Eagles were in control midway through the second half.”

In a related development, Pinnick and some NFF officials were seen in a video clip protesting the unfairness against the Super Eagles, urging the match commissioner to investigate the protest.

Pinnick said in the video: “It’s not a game.

“Two penalties were not awarded to Nigeria in the first half.

“I can tell my boys to leave this game.”

Pinnick insisted on seeing the match commissioner and appealed for the injustice to be corrected.

Pinnick said the referee was not helping the Ecuadorian team because “no one would accept this kind of unprofessional act at the World Cup”.

NAN reports that some match officials were then seen appealing to Pinnick and other NFF officials, pledging to investigate the alleged unfairness against the team.

Nigeria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Tijani Muhammad-Bande, and Ambassador Lot Egopija, Consul General of Nigeria in New York, were among several Nigerians present at the game.

NOPE.

I drove around the tough Spring Mountain Motor Resort road course outside of Las Vegas for more than a dozen laps. Yet I still don’t feel like I’m tapping into the full potential of the premium compact sports sedan I’m driving. So I push even harder – beyond my usual comfort zone.

My foot hits the ground after a quick right turn and I keep it planted. The speedometer slips well past 100 mph when I enter the long sweeper, but my foot stays there. A sharp 90-degree turn looms, so I slam the brakes and let the carbon-fiber rotors lose speed and set the nose quickly.

Without hesitation, I turn the steering wheel while pinning the accelerator to the floor. The car drives unhindered. Each of its Pirelli R-compound tires grips the asphalt tenaciously. The four-door circles around the angled bowl – pulling a lateral force of 1.27 G of twisting from the face – before launching to the other side towards the slalom.

There is no creaking. No slippage. And no drama. It’s obvious – and a little frustrating – that I still haven’t found the limit of the all-new 2022 Audi RS 3.

With its enthusiast-friendly “RS” models, Audi is constantly hitting the racetracks, and the all-new 2022 Audi RS 3 is no exception. The RS 3, positioned as the performance halo model above the standard A3 and sporty S3, combines luxury, technology, innovation and high performance in a premium compact sedan. It’s a unique blend, and its strengths allow Audi to own the segment – to date, the RS 3 has no direct competitors.

Unlike the A3 and S3, which use different variations of the automaker’s 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the RS 3 features a 2.5-liter turbocharged five-cylinder engine. While an inline-5 is an unusual engine configuration, Audi has been perfecting and tweaking it for 46 years – it holds countless victories in some of the most grueling motorsport races in the world. Under the hood of the 2022 RS 3, it’s tuned to deliver 401 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque (a slight power boost over its predecessor). The engine is mated to an automated 7-speed ‘S tronic’ dual-clutch gearbox that sends power to all four wheels via Audi’s renowned ‘quattro’ permanent all-wheel-drive system.

The RS Torque Splitter rear differential makes the RS 3 a real star. Unlike most differentials that simply divide power left and right, the innovative RS Torque Splitter provides fully variable torque vectoring. It accomplishes this via an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch on each rear driveshaft. Simply put, the quattro system can smoothly transmit power to the front or rear axle with performance-tuned algorithms. In addition, the software has been tuned to allow the RS torque splitter to send 100 percent of the available power to the rear axle, thus turning the Audi RS 3 into a rear-wheel-drive vehicle.

The clever rear differential is complemented by the standard RS sports suspension with Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC). This successor to Audi’s popular magnetic drive system offers stepless, individual adjustment based on vehicle needs or operator-controlled mode selections. Audi Drive Select is responsible for commanding these modes, and on the RS 3 it has been expanded to include Comfort, Auto, Dynamic, RS Individual, RS Performance and RS Torque Rear.

Other mechanical benefits include upgraded brakes with 14.8-inch iron rotors in the front axle (with 6-piston calipers) and 12.2-inch in the rear (with single-piston calipers). Additionally, Audi offers an optional carbon-ceramic brake upgrade that fits the 15-inch ceramic rotors on the front axle – this cuts overall weight by a whopping 22 pounds.

The RS 3 differentiates itself with a more aggressive exterior that doesn’t hide its performance mission – it’s not the sleeper of Audi’s A3 range. There are unique front and rear bumpers, a roof with a contrast finish and flared wheel arches. The matrix-design LED headlights feature an all-new 3×5 pixel LED display directly below that displays the model number and a checkered flag when greeting the driver – that’s a nice feature. Audi also offers model-specific exterior colors.

The interior hasn’t been overlooked either, as the RS 3 is beautifully appointed with an upgraded interior that is downright stunning. Highlights include sports front seats in fine Nappa leather with RS embossing (and RS-specific honeycomb stitching) and an RS Sport leather steering wheel. And for the driving enthusiasts, Audi’s Multimedia Interface (MMI) has been enhanced with an RS monitor to display G-forces, tire pressure, tire temperature, coolant, engine oil and transmission oil temperatures.

I have always been a fan of the inline-5 because its exhaust note is unique and distinctive. At idle, the engine is a bit smoother than an inline-4 with a slightly more sophisticated idle. You would never know the engine puts out 401 horsepower during daily driving. The powertrain is relatively quiet and its temperament is subdued – a continuous reassuring growl only signals its existence as the engine remains on the underside of the tachometer. At full boil, the inline-5 springs to life. It emits a throaty intake sound at full throttle accompanied by a chirping-like exhaust note that will turn heads. The din is deep and soothing (far from a moan) that gets louder and more intense as the engine nears redline.

In town, the RS 3 impressively hides its true colors. With Drive Select in COMFORT or AUTO, the transmission changes almost imperceptibly. The gearbox works hard to make sure the engine doesn’t rev much over 3000 rpm (probably chasing fuel economy). Audi has programmed quattro to direct torque to the front axle (COMFORT) or a balanced front/rear split (AUTO). The ride is “comfortably firm”, which means sporty without being abusive. Passing power is still available if needed, but it takes a while for the boost to build and the S tronic to drop a few gears to optimize the powertrain. Nonetheless, downshifts are seamless and highway driving is relaxed – expect to get around 30 mpg on the open road.

Choose DYNAMIC mode for a more enthusiastic on-road experience. Audi’s quattro sends as much torque as possible to the rear axle, giving the sedan another rear-drive dynamic. The suspension is firmer and the throttle and gearbox are more responsive. As a result, the RS 3 is much livelier and more eager – consider it caffeinated. It’s funny.

Still, RS PERFORMANCE (and configurable RS INDIVIDUAL) is what the RS 3 is frankly. This configuration puts all vehicle systems in “combat ready” mode. Torque is concentrated rearward again, but the electronics are tuned to nearly eliminate the dreaded understeer and jittery oversteer for the fastest possible speed through a corner. The shocks are firm, throttle response is immediate, and the gearbox is aggressive in getting up/down and maintaining gears.

The RS 3 is nose-heavy (what do you expect when all the mass of the transverse inline-5 is suspended in front of the front axle?), but you’d never know that from the driver’s seat because the sedan feels completely neutral while cheerfully thrown around a track. The Audi is surprisingly capable and incredibly quick. (On that note, I found my fastest laps using the amazing front grip to turn confidently, then relying on quattro and the RS Torque Splitter rear differential to put the power in properly and keep the g-load on the chassis .)

And there is a last mode called RS TORQUE REAR. This configuration sends 100% of the available power to the rear axle. While I don’t consider this mode to be the fastest way to hit a track (why ask the lighter wheels to handle 401 horsepower?), it does allow the RS 3 to oversteer with just a flick of the throttle – just like he was racing in a Formula Drift event. Fun, but more of a show than a useful driving mode.

In terms of real-world performance, the new RS 3 delivers. Using launch control, the RS 3 will sprint to 60mph in just 3.6 seconds – it’s a fast exotic car. And the top speed (when equipped with the Dynamic Plus package) is 180 mph – that’s the speed of an exotic car too.

It’s hard not to love the RS 3. The subcompact sedan does just about anything a driving enthusiast could ask for, and it does it with style and refinement (valets will even tell you it’s got some style). . And while it sits just above the S3 in Audi’s model hierarchy, its real-world positioning is a leap above – this A3 offshoot is a whole different ball game.

The base price of the all-new 2022 Audi RS 3 is around $60,000 (around $74,000 by the time you’ve properly optioned it). That amount of money was used to buy a comfortable four-door or a track-ready sports coupe, but not both. Well, until now.

The new RS 3 solves the dilemma for car enthusiasts of playing a dual role as a chic and suitable daily driver with a real weekend racing talent capable of reaching the podium. And if you think the Audi RS 3 is too expensive, ask yourself this: “How much am I willing to pay for a compact luxury sports sedan capable of embarrassing Corvettes and Porsches at a track event. the weekend ?”

Vintage Chevrolets, Fords and a host of vehicles from other automakers drew crowds to downtown Vacaville on Saturday for the 20th annual Fiesta Days car show.

Along East Main Street, from Davis Street to Wilson Street, classic cars, trucks and motorcycles dominated the scene. Men, women and children, many of them in strollers, roam the neighborhood, amazed by the beauty of the automobiles on display.

To add to the fun, artists from the Live Music Center and winners of the Fiesta contest took in the view.

Rodrigo Rivera from Fairfield came with his wife and a young son. The family made frequent stops to admire the huge selection of vintage vehicles, oh and ahh at their immaculate condition.

“It’s great to be here,” Rodrigo said.

He had worked the night before and had literally slept a little, waking up after barely resting to spend some quality time with his family.

An affinity for automobiles, it seems, runs in the family, and this auto show was no exception.

“It’s so beautiful. We love it,” he said.

Nearby, Frostie Torres sat next to a friend who was occupying a blue and white 1955 Chevy on display.

“That’s good. We’re happy to bring our cars,” she said, perched on a wheelchair. She pointed out that the friends and their husbands have long complemented each other.

“We went to school together, and our husbands went to school together and now we have matching cars,” Torres added.

His vehicle, a silver and white 1955 Chevy, sat nearby.

Across the street, at CreekWalk and Andrews Park, Fiesta festivities were in full swing.

The fun continues on Sunday, Hispanic Day, starting at 11 a.m.

That’s when a mass on the CreekWalk stage, performed by Father Berg and including the music of a mariachi band, kicks off the day.

At noon, Folklorico Juvenil Danzantes Unidos will dance and open the Fiesta Garden, Jailhouse and concessions. A highlight will be the jalapeno and onion eating contest at 3 p.m.

On Monday, the last day of Fiesta, events will run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Musical performances begin at 10 a.m., with the Fiesta Garden, Jailhouse, and Concessions opening an hour later.

Get your latest Fiesta Corn Dog, Funnel Cake, and other treats, as they won’t be offered until next year.

A doctor of history, the 64-year-old has five collections of short stories and five novels published to date. She is also active in theater and works with Vivadi, a theater troupe made up of writers, artists, dancers and painters.

In an interview at
Bookerprize.com, the author said that many literary works inspired her to write. “I can talk about writers who have enriched my being and made me discover different ways of telling history. Krishna Sobti showed me the importance of the smell of the earth, the cadence of language and the pure materiality of the description which makes the narration of life vibrate; Nirmal Verma pretty much got rid of the vaunted necessity of dialogue in his writing, and let the atmosphere take over, thus creating another breath in the writing; Intizar Hussain enriched my imagination with his very “oriental” way of telling a story within a story within a story and mixing epic, folk tale and mythology with the contemporary and the everyday; KB Vaid thrilled me with his risky and daring games with form and language; Sri Lal Shukl with sardonic humor colored the personal with the political; Vinod Kumar Shukla gave the mundane a slightly oblique gait, thereby drawing attention to things and people forgotten or taken for granted,” said Booker’s winner.

The author said that apart from Hindi, several international authors continued to enrich “his imagination and sharpen his literary awareness” and named the literary giants like Coetzee, Dostoyevsky, Haldor Laxness, Hemingway, Garcia Marquez, Kundera, Borghes, Osamu Dazai, Alice Munroe, Tanizaki, Unamuno, and Gao Xingjian as inspiration.

A fan of vintage Bollywood music, the author’s earliest reading memory is of the heartwarming tales of “The Panchatantra” and “Chandamama” children’s magazines.

In the same interview, Shree said “Mahabharata” is the book that changed her life. “It is not for nothing that it is said to contain everything. All the possible stories, all the possible ways to tell them, they are all there. He is bold, wise, crazy, human and clairvoyant. Always disturbing and inspiring,” the author said of the epic.

Currently, his book ‘Ret Samadhi’ is being talked about. The story of the novel is set in northern India and follows an 80-year-old woman. Speaking about where the idea for the story came from, the author said: “In the case of ‘Tomb of Sand’, the image of the back of an old bedridden woman, who seemed to no longer care live and pushed deeper into the wall, as if to bury herself in it, gradually took hold of me. This aroused my curiosity: is she really tired of life and the world and does she turn the back, or is she slowly preparing for a new and different round of life?When she seems to want to disappear into the wall, does she want the end or does she really want to burrow in and come out the other side ?

Corsair, after decades of being a leader in desktop PCs, is releasing its first-ever gaming laptop. The new Voyager a1600 is an AMD powerhouse, featuring both Ryzen 6000-series processors and AMD Radeon RX 6000 series. The device is Corsair’s first venture into mobile hardware after acquiring enthusiast PC maker Origin in 2019.

We don’t yet know for sure what this device will look like since the images Corsair provided us with are renders only, and we only got a brief glimpse during AMD’s Computex keynote. Still, take a look and one feature will probably jump out at you: there’s a Touch Bar.

This row of shortcut buttons above the keyboard is of course not called the “Touch Bar”. Corsair described it to me, more accurately, as “ten customizable shortcut buttons that are easy to access with the S key.” The good thing is that this row of 10 easy-to-access customizable shortcut buttons adds extra keys to the keyboard – it doesn’t. replace the feature row, which is a choice some other manufacturers have made with mixed reception.

These S-keys are powered by Elgato Stream Deck software, which means you’ll likely use them for various live streaming controls, including switching scenes, launching media, and adjusting audio. We wouldn’t necessarily expect a laptop to be the device of choice for many streamers, but it’s still an interesting idea that’s unusual in the gaming space – and can also work well as a game controller. Zoom meeting.

Also, it looks like you can access these touch controls when the laptop is closed. I like that you can see the battery indicator before you open the thing up, but I wonder what buttons might be hitting when the laptop is in a backpack or something. We’ll know more about how these buttons work when we get our hands on the device (which should be in July, according to Corsair).

Elsewhere, the Voyager will include a full-size Cherry MX low-profile mechanical keyboard with per-key RGB backlighting as well as a 1080p FHD webcam. I see what looks like a physical webcam shutter in these renders, which may be a good sign that Corsair is making efforts in this area (which not all game makers do).

Potential Voyager buyers will be able to choose between a Ryzen 7 6800HS and a Ryzen 9 6900HS – both configurations come with a Radeon 6800M GPU. You can get up to 64GB of RAM (Corsair Vengeance DDR5, of course) and 2TB of storage. The device has a 16-inch 2560 x 1600, 240Hz display and two Thunderbolt 3 USB 4.0 ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C, one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, one SDXC 7.0 card reader and an audio jack.

It’s no surprise to see Corsair following in the footsteps of Razer, another gaming hardware company that expanded into the enthusiast laptop sphere after a build-and-buy frenzy. Corsair has made a number of recent acquisitions, including Elgato, peripheral maker Scuf Gaming as well as Origin, and it looks set to expand its reach to users who don’t necessarily want to build their own systems.

The quality and success of this laptop may be our first clue as to how good this expansion is. Origin has made decent PCs in the past and particularly stand out for the customization of the systems they sell. It will be interesting to see how configurable the new Corsair machine is and how well those design choices play out in the enthusiast space.

On Friday, cycling enthusiasts in Windsor-Essex will bring back a world tradition.

The town’s Bike Committee is teaming up with Bike Windsor-Essex to introduce Bike to Work Day, encouraging residents to not only take advantage of the warmer weather, but also save money as bike prices gasoline remain high.

The event is also designed to ask residents for their thoughts on what they would like to see in Windsor when it comes to cycling, according to Ward 9 Councilor Kieran McKenzie.

“Our committee’s mandate is to improve the safety and sustainability of cycling in our community,” said McKenzie, chair of the cycling committee. “For Bike to Work Day, we’re asking the community to tell us directly what they think it will take to get more people to incorporate cycling into their daily routines.”

Bike to Work Day starts outside Bike Windsor-Essex’s head office on Monmouth Street in Olde Walkerville. Riders are encouraged to join a ride to the Ambassador Bridge and then to Jackson Park. Riders can leave the road at any time to get to work or school.

From 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., City of Windsor staff will be at the picnic pavilion at the southwest end of the park to gather information from people about how Windsor could become more bike-friendly. Light refreshments and beverages will be available.

“Supporting commuters and everyday cycling in Windsor should be a priority,” said Lori Newton, general manager of Bike Windsor-Essex. “Many more residents would choose to cycle rather than drive for short trips if we had a connected network of safe cycling infrastructure.”

Information shared by Bike to Work Day attendees will be forwarded to the Cycling Committee and then to Windsor City Council for consideration and potential implementation at a future meeting.

What happened

Shares of Holdings of gaming enthusiasts (NASDAQ: EGLX) were up 14.3% as of 11:02 a.m. ET on Tuesday after reporting first-quarter results on Monday.

The company reported an increase in content viewership across its gaming communities and platforms. Revenue grew 57% year-over-year, driven by strong monetization trends across its online properties , to an increase in direct sales, subscriptions and acquisitions of Addicting Games and U.GG properties. This is a good start to the year in what is typically a slow seasonal quarter.

So what

Enthusiast Gaming is on a mission to create the largest multimedia platform for gaming and esports fans, and the latest operating results show good progress. The company has built an audience of 300 million people per month across 100 websites and channels on social media platforms. The next phase of management’s strategy is to monetize these viewers through subscriptions and advertisements.

The company ended the quarter with 233,000 paying subscribers, up from 207,000 in January. This fuels improved profitability.

Gross margin grew more than twice as fast as revenue in the first quarter. The company still reported a net loss of C$11 million ($8.5 million) on revenue of C$47 million, but this is an improvement from the loss of C$13.5 million in the prior year quarter.

Sylvester Uzoama, managing director of Circum Group, says the welfare of referees is essential to the growth and development of the game of tennis.

Uzoama made the remarks while unveiling and presenting new kits to the Nigeria Tennis Umpires Association (NTUA) at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium on Saturday in Abuja.

Donations of 200 sets of kits to NTUA were part of the company’s social responsibilities and were the result of a five-year agreement signed by the two parties in 2000, News Agency of Nigeria reports.

The Circum Group boss said his company focused on referees mainly because he felt they were the missing link that needed improvement.

“We started to organize international tournaments, but we realized that the referees did not meet, especially in their perspectives. So we felt this was a very important area to address.

“We came up with this kit arrangement and it will last for five years. We are already approaching the end of the second year.

“We intend to ensure that the standards are maintained, the uniforms are renewed periodically.

“On top of that, we’re also providing some sort of stipend to make sure they can meet some of their maintenance needs for those tournaments as well,” he said.

The tennis lover noted that the referee’s job is more like voluntary service, adding that it is therefore necessary to provide some support for their activities.

“Nigeria is starting to host international tournaments especially here at the FCT and when a tournament is held it is not just about the players.

“There has to be the right atmosphere, the right look. So, I felt it was necessary to make sure the referees also looked representative not just of the country or the tournaments, but even of themselves.

“You look at other international tournaments, you see players wearing nice outfits in designer uniforms, so I felt it was necessary to ensure that Nigeria was not left out in this respect,” did he declare.

He revealed that his company was eager to renew the contract and was also considering the possibility of extending it beyond the donation of T-shirts.

“It is also important that their shoes and shoes are uniform. They still don’t have caps either and we know how sunny the weather can be sometimes.

“So we are certainly looking to improve the package that will come next and we are also looking to strengthen their monetary package as well.

“It’s an ongoing program and I hope we can certainly influence them better,” he said.

He urged other private organizations and legal persons to come forward and embark on one or two small projects, to ensure the growth and development of the sport in the country.

“When we do small things big, it starts to feel like we are doing extraordinary things.

“It doesn’t have to be tennis, it can be boxing, archery or any other sport, but when we have a certain level of participation and support it certainly helps to make sports better. in general in the country,” he said.

Kehinde Ijaola, the national president of NTUA, appreciated the sponsor for the donations, adding that the gesture meant a lot to the association.

Ijaola, who was represented by Segun Adepoju, the National Vice President, explained that the five-year deal also comes with other enticing incentives, along with a token fee of ₦100,000 on an annual basis.

“So far, Circum Group has lived up to its end of the bargain because it paid us the annual token.

“We also received delivery of the first batch of kits, just two months after signing the agreement two years ago, and now we are receiving another delivery of the second batch,” he said.

Adepoju said the gesture had gone a long way in helping referees perform better and, therefore, in giving international recognition to several of its members who had been invited to participate in high-level tournaments around the world.

“As we speak, our president is in France and will be part of the officials at the French Open next week, which is a Grand Slam event.

“In addition, approximately three other referees have been assigned to travel to London next month to compete in the Wimbledon Open.

“Indeed, if we could be recognized and invited to participate in Grand Slam tournaments, ATP Challengers as well as other WTA tournaments, it shows that we are doing very well as a group”, a- he declared.

• Prestigious Bitcoin (BTC) scientist and reviewer PlanB is sure that Bitcoin (BTC) is currently oversold

Bitcoin (BTC) has never been at $30,000 with such an amazing RSI: PlanB. Mr. PlanB shared on Twitter The inspiration for his hopium gives no indication of losing momentum as the digital currency market slaughter ends.

It’s time for the hopium. We have been in the 30k-60k territory for 1.5 years. However, whenever we were at 30,000 for the first time (Dec 2020), BTC was overbought (Weekly RSI ~90). The BTC market was even-handed (RSI ~50) for the second time in 30k (July 2021). Currently, the dreaded pinnacle on 30k BTC is oversold in March 2020 (RSI 34).

According to the Relative Strength Index or RSI – a deep-rooted specialized review pointer that shows strength at a specific cost and whether it is oversold or overbought – bitcoin hit the $30,000 level in December 2020. broke what was circled. energetic energy.

In July 2021, Bitcoin (BTC) contacted this level with an unbiased RSI, while these days it is in the oversold zone. PlanB focused on the fact that a while ago, the black march was the last time bitcoin (BTC) sold off so much.

Bitcoin (BTC) and all major altcoins are in the red zone today. The auction was fueled in large measure by the US expansion report. Bitcoin (BTC) momentarily slipped below $30,000, while the net crypto market capitalization is below $1.38 trillion. A year prior, on May 10, 2022, this metric hit an all-time high of $2.97 trillion.

Crypto Plunges

Either way, the Crypto Fear and Greed Index figured out how to add a point and reach level 12/100, but neglected to escape the intense fear zone.

It’s been a precarious week for Bitcoin. The price of Bitcoin fell below $30,000 on Wednesday, down almost 8% past 24 hours. The last time Bitcoin approached the $29,000 mark was in December 2020, as indicated by NextAdvisor’s cost tracking information.

WATERTOWN — Emalyn Osborne thinks the Watertown women’s tennis team could get under the skin of their Naugatuck Valley League counterparts. But the senior doubles player and No.2 thinks it’s not necessarily because the Warriors have won all of their league games.
“I think the other schools really think we’re a little obnoxious because our team always cheers each other on,” Osborne said Tuesday before a game against Nonnewaug. “It’s part of the fact that we’re such good friends off the pitch too. We support each other so much.
This camaraderie on and off the field is a big reason the Warriors are able to defend their NVL crown. Watertown is 11-0 in the league and 11-1 overall with its first loss to Nonnewaug, 4-3, on Tuesday at Crestbrook Park. Holy Cross (10-1, 10-0) is just behind Watertown with Wolcott (10-3, 10-1) in pursuit.
Watertown coach Mark Zaborowski scheduled the game against a tough Nonnewaug side knowing it could end in defeat but should pay off in the long run, especially after Watertown lost half of their last year’s starters at graduation.
No. 1 singles player Ally Stoto, who won the title-deciding match in the NVL Finals at the No. 1 doubles last season, said it was an adjustment to the No. 1 singles role. Even when she loses, like she did on Tuesday, she finds ways to support the team.
“It’s mostly about encouraging them,” Stoto said. “When people cheer me on and I hit an ace serve, they’re like, ‘Yeah, go Ally.’ It helps a lot to know that I have a team behind me and even if I lose they are still proud of the way I played.
The Warriors will face their toughest time the rest of the week. After a match with Wilby today, Watertown have back-to-back matches against Wolcott followed by a showdown with Holy Cross, which has yet to be scheduled. Watertown will be without Maggie Dessatti, half of their unbeaten No. 1 doubles team in doubles with Meghan Hughes. Dessatti is out for the week with a neck injury. Hughes and Charlotte Manalo lost to Nonnewaug’s unbeaten No. 1 doubles team of Sofia Pagnamenta and Marley Baker, 8-3.
Dessatti is confident that Manolo will slip right into the top spot in doubles.
“(Manolo) and I have really similar styles of play, so I don’t think it will be a problem for Meghan and her to communicate well and play well together,” Dessatti said. “It stinks a bit that this is our most competitive week of the season, but I think Meghan and Charlotte will pull it off anyway.”
