This document summarizes the design of a floating kiosk called TST 01 by Italian architects Torrisi & Procopio. The kiosk is designed to provide food service and entertainment in an aquatic environment. Its segmented shell shape is inspired by sea urchins and starfish. Key features include a diameter of 26.62 meters, timber flooring and skin, and an invisible mooring system that allows it to be fully autonomous on the water. However, the kiosk lacks a fixed anchor and has limited weather protection, so it is only suitable for use during warmer months in protected waters.

1) Bankers are working to refine stress testing processes that regulators began requiring after the financial crisis, with the goal of using stress tests to gain business intelligence and make better decisions.
2) Even smaller banks should perform stress tests on loan portfolios using severe hypothetical scenarios because it produces valuable knowledge about risks and opportunities, though larger banks face mandatory requirements.
3) Properly organizing loan data into mathematical models allows banks to better understand their portfolios and identify plausible risk forecasts, though commercial loans can be difficult to standardize given their variability.

It provides examples of how Citi and other banks are using tools from vendors like Attensity to track mentions across various social media platforms, analyze sentiment, and even automate responses. While monitoring social media was once limited to PR firms, there are now many specialized tools and platforms that banks can use to join online discussions and apply insights to enhance customer experience and relationships.
Chevrolet is partnering with MTV to promote its E85 flex-fuel vehicles. As part of the partnership, Chevrolet customized three trucks to ferry attendees to the MTV Video Music Awards, where commercials for Chevrolet's E85 vehicles will air. The partnership aims to promote ethanol as a renewable fuel that can help reduce emissions and oil dependence, though both companies acknowledge it is an interim solution and not the ultimate answer.
The document provides an in-depth review of the 2007 Nissan Murano crossover vehicle. It summarizes the Murano as aiming to combine attributes of cars, trucks, and minivans in an attractive package, with the goal of appealing to a wide range of buyers. The review finds that the Murano drives well and offers ample cargo space, comfort, and features to back up its versatility, though its stiff suspension and expensive options packages are weaknesses.
The document provides a review of the 2006 Pontiac GTO. It summarizes that the GTO garnered attention on the streets of Manhattan from many observers due to its bright yellow paint job. While the GTO lacks flashy exterior design, it has outstanding power and handling due to its 6.0-liter V8 engine that allows it to accelerate from 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds. The review concludes that the GTO is a fun, powerful muscle car that can satisfy enthusiasts who want to tap into their carefree side while driving a vehicle with big power in an unassuming package.

BMW was an early adopter of HD Radio technology and currently offers it as an option on all of its 2007 models. HD Radio provides digital broadcast of AM and FM radio that results in improved sound quality compared to traditional analog radio. It also allows stations to broadcast multiple streams of programming on different channels. While HD Radio is free like traditional radio, supported by advertising, some initial multicasting channels were commercial-free to encourage people to buy HD Radio receivers.
Two hedge funds are gaining access to university supercomputers through cloud networks to power their trading strategies. Stony Brook University has created a "research cloud" allowing funds to use its IBM Blue Gene supercomputers. One fund will use the machines to design trading algorithms, while another aims to spot market anomalies. Separately, a company is renting time on Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Blue Gene supercomputer to adapt gene analysis software for analyzing financial markets.
The document summarizes several concept cars unveiled at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show that focus on alternative fuel technologies and improved fuel efficiency.

While the concepts envisioned future technologies, the auto industry is already recycling over 80% of cars in the US.
This document discusses how BNP Paribas, a large French banking group, fosters relationships with technology startups through its innovation lab called L'Atelier.

The document discusses the emerging threat of hardware trojans - malicious code implanted directly into computer chips during the manufacturing process. This could allow attackers to manipulate data, shut down systems, or turn devices into bugs. While difficult to do, it could be done by intelligence agencies or well-funded criminals. Experts are developing techniques like hardware modeling to detect trojans in chip designs before manufacturing. Government agencies are also releasing best practices for organizations to evaluate supplier trustworthiness and mitigate these risks.
Reed Street Productions hosts zombie-themed 5K races called Run for Your Lives to sell inventory from the co-founder's apparel company. Over 700 zombies descended on Lakewood, Colorado for an event, chasing thousands of runners. The races have been a success, with the company on track to hit $15 million in sales this year. Runners pay $80 to race through obstacles while zombies, who pay $25, chase them. Zombie slots usually sell out first. Reed Street is expanding to 13 cities this year and expects to double that in 2013, attracting people fascinated by zombies.
A federal court ruling in 2012 established that telecommuting is a legitimate and reasonable workplace option that employers must consider under the Americans with Disabilities Act. In Bixby v. JPMorgan Chase, the court found that Chase had violated the ADA by denying a request from an employee to telecommute as an accommodation for his depression and anxiety. Other similar ADA cases in 2012 also showed courts accepting that telecommuting can be a viable job requirement depending on the position and responsibilities. These rulings signal that courts now recognize telecommuting as a reasonable workplace practice that employers may have difficulty denying employee requests for unless there are clear policies applied consistently.
The document summarizes a Meet&Greet event held by American Banker and PaymentsSource that brought together 130 payments industry executives, venture capitalists, startup founders and analysts.
