police officers have raided buildings used by a local chapter of the Hells Angels biker gang near the western city of Duesseldorf after state authorities banned the group on suspicion it was engaged in a wide range of criminal activity The dpa news agency reported Wednesday that 50 buildings in 16 municipalities in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia were raided in a search for evidence to support the ban The state Interior Ministry said the Hells Angels chapter based in the town of Erkrath is suspected of involvement in violence Police tactical teams took part in some of the raids as a

your browser police and tax inspectors in Germany have raided the offices of dozens of banks financial advisers and wealthy individuals as part of a criminal probe into Germans suspected of tax evasion According to the Frankfurt Public Prosecutor authorities searched the homes of eight people in the towns of Bad Tölz and the offices of four tax consultants and six asset management companies Wealthy Germans allegedly used tax havens to hide capital gains from the Germany treasury and evade taxes, according to the prosecutor’s press release “The purpose of the search warrants is to gather evidence about untaxed income and to learn about the economic activity of the companies in tax havens,” the Public Prosecutor stated in a press release Prosecutors stated that the “trigger” for the investigation were findings from Offshore Leaks, a 2013 investigation called Secrecy for Sale by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists While the press release did not name individuals or companies under investigation officials did allege that the subjects of the raids were helped by “the former subsidiary in the British Virgin Islands of a major German bank.” The bank is understood to be Deutsche Bank and the former subsidiary is Regula Ltd, according to ICIJ partners Norddeutscher Rundfunk and Sueddeutsche Zeitung. a “nominee” shareholder of shell companies was reportedly used to obscure the identities of taxpayers who owned or otherwise benefited from offshore companies ICIJ first wrote about Regula Ltd. in a 2013 investigation into how Deutsche Bank helped clients maintain hundreds of offshore companies The subsidiary also appeared in ICIJ’s Swiss Leaks, Panama Papers and Paradise Papers investigations Deutsche Bank told ICIJ that today’s raids did not involve a search of the bank’s premises Bank spokesman Christian Streckert said: “The investigations are not directed against Deutsche Bank “The public prosecutor’s office is investigating private individuals Deutsche Bank cooperates with the public prosecutor’s office and voluntarily submits all requested documents.” the country-wide searches are related to a raid last year on Deutsche Bank’s headquarters in Frankfurt In November, almost 200 German police raided Deutsche Bank’s headquarters as part of a money laundering investigation helped up to 900 clients hide transactions worth about $350 million Read our 2013 story about Deutsche Bank’s use of offshore entities Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed a filtration system that combines a polymer membrane with activated carbon to remove steroid hormones from drinking water Steroid hormones are micropollutants that cannot be eliminated efficiently by conventional processes but this small amount can damage human health and the environment The system developed by KIT researchers uses very small carbon particles making it possible to reach the reference value of 1 nanogram estradiol per litre of drinking water proposed by the European Commission Head of KIT’s Institute for Advanced Membrane Technology (IAMT) and her team have developed the new technology water is pressed through a semipermeable membrane that eliminates larger impurities and microorganisms water flows through the layer of carbon particles behind which bind the hormone molecules.” At IAMT researchers have further developed and improved this process together with filter manufacturer Blücher GmbH The research is detailed in ‘Polymer-based spherical activated carbon – ultrafiltration (UF-PBSAC) for the adsorption of steroid hormones from water: Material characteristics and process configuration’ published in Elsevier journal Water Research (Volume 185, 15 October 2020, 116249).

Such depictions are found not only in media, but in museums and introductory anthropology textbooks Sarah Lacy [ Provided ]A common argument is that a sexual division of labor and unequal division of power exists today; therefore, it must have existed in our evolutionary past as well. But this is a just-so story without sufficient evidentiary support, despite its pervasiveness in disciplines like evolutionary psychology Cara Ocobock [ PETER RINGENBERG | Peter Ringenberg/University of Notre Dame ]There is a growing body of physiological, anatomical, ethnographic and archaeological evidence to suggest that not only did women hunt in our evolutionary past We are both biological anthropologists Cara specializes in the physiology of humans living in extreme conditions using her research to reconstruct how our ancestors may have adapted to different climates Sarah studies Neanderthal and early modern human health and excavates at their archaeological sites It’s not uncommon for scientists like us — who attempt to include the contributions of all individuals in reconstructions of our evolutionary past — to be accused of rewriting the past to fulfill a politically correct though: Gendered labor roles did not exist in the Paleolithic era which lasted from 3.3 million years ago until 12,000 years ago We recognize that biological sex can be defined using multiple characteristics, including chromosomes, genitalia and hormones, each of which exists on a spectrum We use the terms female and male when discussing the physiological and anatomical evidence as this is what the research literature tends to use One of the key arguments put forth by “Man the Hunter” proponents is that females would not have been physically capable of taking part in the long, arduous hunts of our evolutionary past. But a number of female-associated features, which provide an endurance advantage, tell a different story.

Let’s get started. seems necessary for life among both females and males Estrogen influences athletic performance, particularly endurance performance The greater concentrations of estrogen that females tend to have in their bodies likely confer an endurance advantage — an ability to exercise for a longer period of time without becoming exhausted In addition to their estrogen advantage, females have a greater proportion of type I muscle fibers relative to males These are slow oxidative muscle fibers that prefer to metabolize fats. They’re not particularly powerful, but they take awhile to fatigue — unlike the powerful type II fibers that males have more of but that tire rapidly. Doing the same intense exercise, females burn 70% more fats than males do, and unsurprisingly, are less likely to fatigue Forget the Flintstones’ nuclear family with a stay-at-home wife There’s no evidence of this social structure or gendered labor roles during the 2 million years of evolution for the genus Homo until the last 12,000 years is equally evident across females and males This nongendered picture should not be surprising when you imagine small-group living. Everyone needs to contribute to the tasks necessary for group survival — chiefly, producing food and shelter and raising children. Individual mothers are not solely responsible for their children; in foragers, the whole group contributes to child care You might imagine this unified labor strategy then changed in early modern humans, but archaeological and anatomical evidence shows it did not. Upper Paleolithic modern humans leaving Africa and entering Europe and Asia show very few sexed differences in trauma and repetitive motion wear. One difference is more evidence of “thrower’s elbow” in males than females though some females shared these pathologies Even in death, there are no sexed differences in how Neanderthals or modern humans buried their dead, or the goods affiliated with their graves These indicators of differential gendered social status do not arrive until agriculture with its stratified economic system and monopolizable resources All this evidence suggests paleolithic women and men did not occupy differing roles or social realms Critics might point to recent forager populations and suggest that since they are using subsistence strategies similar to our ancient ancestors their gendered roles are inherent to the hunter-gatherer lifestyle previous interpretations frequently left them out The myth that female reproductive capabilities somehow render them incapable of gathering any food products beyond those that cannot run away does more than just underestimate Paleolithic women It feeds into narratives that the contemporary social roles of women and men are inherent and define our evolution Our Paleolithic ancestors lived in a world where everyone in the band pulled their own weight Certainly accommodations must have been made for group members who were sick, recovering from childbirth or otherwise temporarily incapacitated. But pregnancy, lactation, child-rearing and menstruation are not permanently disabling events, as researchers found among the living Agta of the Philippines, who continue to hunt during these life periods Suggesting that the female body is only designed to gather plants ignores female physiology and the archaeological record To ignore the evidence perpetuates a myth that only serves to bolster existing power structures Cosmos » History New research is bringing to life for the first time a description of the social organisation and small community dynamics of Neanderthals Neanderthals were our closest human cousins but up until now we’ve not known much about how they lived and their social relations The research published in Nature and led by the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Germany is based on DNA analysis of 13 Neanderthal individuals from two caves in Russia While DNA sequencing has given us a better understanding of some aspects of Neanderthal evolution and physiology their social organisation has remained a mystery until now The Max Planck researchers’ findings shed light on the social organisation of Neanderthals is one of the largest genetic study of these hominids reported to date Eleven of the Neanderthal individuals’ remains were found in the Chagyrskaya Cave and two from Okladnikov Cave Both caves are in the Altai Mountains of southern Siberia The Chagysrkaya Cave is believed to have been occupied by Neanderthals between 59,000 and 51,000 years ago The Okladnikov remains are at least 44,000 years old the results show some were closely related and lived around the same time Genetic diversity in the Y chromosomes (passed down from father to son) is much lower than the mitochondrial DNA passed down from mothers This suggests more widespread migration of females than males between tribes Homozygosity – possessing two identical forms of a particular gene inherited from each parent – was found to be high in the Neanderthal individuals at levels similar to those found in mountain gorillas The authors suggest such findings are best explained by small communities of around 20 individuals At least 60% of the females in these groups most likely migrated from another troop to join new mates’ families while the males were fixed The findings corroborate earlier research based on fossilized footprints and spatial analysis which also suggested small communities of Neanderthals Comparing their new Neanderthal genomes with previously sequenced genomes the researchers were able to determine that these populations fit into the broader Neanderthal picture “All 13 newly sequenced individuals shared most variants with the high-coverage genome from Chagyrskaya Cave and were more similar to the around 50,000-year-old Neanderthal genome from Vindija Cave in Croatia than to the 91,000-130,000-year-old Altai Neanderthal from Denisova Cave although the communities from Chagyrskaya and Okladnikov caves were genetically distinct they all appear equally related to European Neanderthals and were part of the same Neanderthal population; no individual showed evidence of recent gene flow from other Neanderthal populations,” the authors write The authors note the important advance represented in their large-scale genetic study of a Neanderthal population we document familial relationships between Neanderthals including a father-and-daughter pair,” they write But they note that their sample size is small and may not represent the social organisation and group size of Neanderthals across the continent “Our findings raise questions as to whether the characteristics of the Altai communities are related to their isolated geographical location at the easternmost extremity of the known range of Neanderthals (especially because the population size at Vindija Cave was probably larger) or whether they are characteristic of Neanderthal communities more broadly,” the authors comment aim to sample multiple individuals from additional Neanderthal communities in other parts of Eurasia to shed further light on the social organization of our closest evolutionary relatives.” Development planning to be completed by end of 2025 A data center development could be coming to Mainburg First reported by local publication Ingolstadt-Reporter the data center will be located on the new Mitterleite industrial estate DCD has contacted the city of Mainburg for additional information The Mitterleite industrial estate is a new extension to the northwest of the existing Wambach industrial estate and was originally planned as a small-scale mixed-use area for local companies the western part of the estate has instead been cornered off for a data center development said: "The project marks a significant step for the economic and technological expansion of Mainburg." Fichtner added: "Everyone who uses a cell phone or apps generates data flows that run through data centers With this project and one of the largest data centers in Bavaria we are investing in the modern future of Mainburg I am delighted that we were able to convincingly present the advantages of our location and win over the investor."

Analysis of the fossils are described in a paper published in the Journal of Human Evolution It has previously been suggested that a fourth unknown human group might have existed in Middle to Late Pleistocene (roughly 800,000 to 12,000 years ago) based on genomic studies on Neanderthal remains in Europe and western Asia The Chinese skull might be a missing piece of this puzzle While showing some modern human-like features skull cap and jaw “seem to reflect more primitive traits” according to the authors The mosaic of features in the ancient individual suggests the coexistence of three lineages in Asia – H and this other lineage which appears to be “phylogenetically close” to modern humans A more recent example of a potential “other” lineage of human was found in the French cave Grotte du Renne is from a newborn baby and dates to about 42,000 years ago It is roughly this time which saw the appearance of modern humans in central Europe eventually replacing the Neanderthal population In a study published in Nature Comparing the ilium from Grotte du Renne with 2 other Neanderthal ilia and 32 modern hip bones from modern newborns the researchers concluded that “it clearly differs from the Neanderthals.” “We propose that this is due to its belonging to an early modern human lineage whose morphology differs slightly from present-day humans,” they continue The ilium’s shape falls outside the normal bounds of variation in modern humans Grotte du Renne has been the subject of archaeological research for decades Deeper layers within the cave show it was occupied by Neanderthals Higher layers indicate the presence of anatomically modern humans is a period which appears to show the two hominins coexisting Stone tools referred to as Châtelperronian techno-cultural complex are found in this layer though it is unclear if they were produced by Homo sapiens or Neanderthals The researchers explore multiple possibilities including the production of the tools by Homo sapiens or that they were made by an as yet unknown lineage of ancient human possibly represented by the anatomically distinct ilium While yet to be confirmed by further research potential unknown lineages suggest a much more complicated path to the modern human than previously thought SCINEMA runs from August 1 to August 31 every year.

But then the Snowden news broke and "I realised this was not the time to cancel." Like many people who build security software Koch believes that offering the underlying software code for free is the best way to demonstrate that there are no hidden backdoors in it giving access to spy agencies or others this means that many important computer security tools are built and maintained by volunteers Koch keeps his underlying code open to the publicin the name of transparency but it isn't a good way to make money.Credit: Willi Nothers for ProPublica "If there is one nightmare that we fear then it's the fact that Werner Koch is no longer available," said Enigmail developer Nicolai Josuttis "It's a shame that he is alone and that he has such a bad financial situation." Enigmail is maintained by two developers in their spare time told me that Enigmail receives about $US1000 a year in donations — just enough to keep the website online GPGTools, which allows users to encrypt email from Apple Mail, announced in October that it would start charging users a small fee Koch attended a talk by free software evangelist Richard Stallman Stallman urged the crowd to write their own version of PGP "I figured I can do it," he recalled He had some time between consulting projects he released an initial version of the software he called GNU Privacy Guard (or GnuPG) a play on PGP and an homage to Stallman's free GNU operating system Koch's software was a hit even though it only ran on the Unix operating system the underlying software code was open for developers to inspect and improve and it wasn't subject to US export restrictions Koch continued to work on GnuPG in between consulting projects until 1999, when the German government gave him a grant to make GnuPG compatible with the Microsoft Windows operating system. The money allowed him to hire a programmer to maintain the software while also building the Windows version This remains the primary free encryption program for Windows machines In 2005, Koch won another contract from the German government to support the development of another email encryption method Koch continued to pay his programmer in the hope that he could find more funding "But nothing came," Koch recalled But after the Snowden news broke, Koch decided to launch a fundraising campaign. He set up an appeal at a crowdsourcing website, made t-shirts and stickers to give to donors, and advertised it on his website. In the end, he earned just $US21,000 who has an 8-year-old daughter and a wife who isn't working But when I asked him what he will do when the current batch of money runs out he shrugged and said he prefers not to think about it "I'm very glad that there is money for the next three months," Koch said "Really I am better at programming than this business stuff."
