Tinerețe

Howard Robard Hughes Jr., născut la 24 decembrie 1905, la Houston, este cunoscut în mare parte pentru că este unul dintre cei mai bogați bărbați și unul dintre cei mai renumiți reclusi, dar Hughes a avut multe realizări profesionale înainte de a se retrage din viața publică.. 

Film și zbor

Fiul unui producător de succes de instrumente de găurit, a moștenit afacerea familiei în 1923, la 18 ani. A folosit o parte din averea sa pentru a finanța filme, începând cu 1926. A produs mai multe filme, inclusiv în primul război mondial. Iad's Îngeri (1930), care a prezentat secvențe scumpe de lupte aeriene și o actriță pe atunci necunoscută pe nume Jean Harlow. Unele dintre alte filme semnificative ale sale au fost Scarface (1932) și Nelegiuitul (1941). În timpul zilelor sale la Hollywood, Hughes și-a dezvoltat o reputație de a fi un jucător, întâlnind astfel de actrițe precum Katharine Hepburn, Ava Gardner și Ginger Rogers.

Hughes a dezvoltat o pasiune pentru zbor și și-a fondat propria companie de aeronave la începutul anilor ’30. Pe lângă proiectarea și construirea avioanelor, și-a riscat propria viață de mai multe ori testând avioanele și stabilind recorduri mondiale de viteză a aerului la mijlocul până la sfârșitul anilor 1930. El este creditat cu numeroase inovații în domeniul aviației, cum ar fi primul echipament de aterizare retractabil, și este amintit și pentru H-4 Hercules, pe care presa l-a poreclit Grosii Spruce. Ani de zile, Hughes a muncit pe acest hidroavion masiv din lemn, care avea scopul de a transporta trupele și materialele peste Oceanul Atlantic în timpul celui de-al doilea război mondial. Completată în 1947, a fost zburată o singură dată și nu a intrat niciodată în producție, cu toate acestea, Hughes a menținut H-4 într-un hangar climatizat până la moartea sa în 1976. În prezent este găzduit în Evergreen Aviation Museum din McMinnville, Oregon.

Recluzia

După un teribil accident de avion din 1946, Hughes a început să se retragă din lume. A cumpărat o parte din RKO Pictures în 1948, dar nu a vizitat niciodată studioul. În anii 1960, el locuia la ultimul etaj al Desert Inn din Las Vegas, Nevada, și își conduce toate afacerile din suita sa de hotel. Puțini oameni l-au văzut vreodată, ceea ce a dus la multe speculații publice și zvonuri despre activitățile sale. S-a crezut că suferă de tulburare obsesiv-compulsivă și avea o problemă de droguri. Hughes a părăsit în cele din urmă Las Vegas și a început să trăiască în străinătate. În 1972 a fost anunțată o biografie autorizată pentru reclama renumită, dar s-a dovedit a fi o înșelătorie. Autorul, Clifford Irving, a fost ulterior închis pentru fraudă.

Moarte și moștenire

Hughes a murit la 5 aprilie 1976. După moartea sa, au apărut numeroase versiuni false ale voinței sale, ceea ce a dus la o luptă asupra averii sale. În 2004, Hughes' viața a revenit la lumina reflectoarelor cu lungmetrajul Aviatorul, care-și înfățișa zilele de început. Leonardo DiCaprio l-a jucat pe miliardar ca un tânăr plin de probleme. A fost nominalizat la un premiu Oscar pentru portretizarea lui Hughes.

Hyundai and GM to work together on developing new cars <a href=https://kraken3yvbvzmhytnrnuhsy772i6dfobofu652e27f5hx6y5cpj7rgyd.cc>kra5 gl</a> Hyundai and General Motors (GM) have agreed to look for ways to work together on developing new vehicles, supply chains and technologies in an effort to cut costs and move more quickly. Global carmakers are under intense pressure to come up with new electric vehicle (EV) and battery technology because they face vehicle emissions regulations around the world. Those research and development efforts could cost tens of billions of dollars. They’re also facing an onslaught of potential competition from Chinese automakers, particularly EV producers, trying to export their lower-cost models overseas in order to escape a huge oversupply problem at home. kraken onion https://kraken3yvbvzmhytnrnuhsy772i6dfobofu652e27f5hx6y5cpj7rgyd.cc South Korea’s Hyundai and America’s GM (GM) said on Thursday they would collaborate on joint product development, manufacturing and future clean energy technologies. They plan to work together on internal combustion, clean-energy, electric and hydrogen vehicles. The non-binding framework agreement was signed by Hyundai Motor Executive Chair Euisun Chung and GM Chair and CEO Mary Barra. “Our goal is to unlock the scale and creativity of both companies to deliver even more competitive vehicles to customers faster and more efficiently,” Barra said in the statement. Including its affiliate Kia, Hyundai Motor is the world’s third-largest automaker by sales, according to Reuters, while GM is currently America’s largest carmaker, having retaken that title from Toyota (TM) in 2022. “This partnership will enable Hyundai Motor and GM to evaluate opportunities to enhance competitiveness in key markets and vehicle segments, as well as drive cost efficiencies and provide stronger customer value,” Chung said in the statement. Carmakers are increasingly sealing partnerships as a way of becoming more competitive in a cut-throat industry driven by price wars. Last year, Nissan and Renault finalized the terms of their revamped alliance, which will focus on developing EVs. GM and Honda (HMC), along with Cruise — GM’s autonomous driving subsidiary — have agreed to create a driverless ride-hailing company in Japan.

Scientists who discovered mammals can breathe through their anuses receive Ig Nobel prize <a href=https://kraken3yvbvzmhytnrnuhsy772i6dfobofu652e27f5hx6y5cpj7rgyd.cc>kra7 cc</a> The world still holds many unanswered questions. But thanks to the efforts of the research teams awarded the IG Nobel Prize on Thursday, some of these questions – which you might not even have thought existed – now have answers. We now know that many mammals can breathe through their anuses, that there isn’t an equal probability that a coin will land on head or tails, that some real plants somehow imitate the shapes of neighboring fake plastic plants, that fake medicine which causes painful side-effects can be more effective than fake medicine without side-effects, and that many of the people famous for reaching lofty old ages lived in places that had bad record-keeping. https://kraken3yvbvzmhytnrnuhsy772i6dfobofu652e27f5hx6y5cpj7rgyd.cc kra6 gl The awards – which have no affiliation to the Nobel Prizes – aim to “celebrate the unusual, honor the imaginative – and spur people’s interest in science, medicine, and technology” by making “people laugh, then think.” In a two-hour ceremony as quirky as the scientific achievements it was celebrating, audience members were welcomed to their seats by accordion music, before a safety briefing warned them not to “sit on anyone, unless you are a child,” not to “feed, chase or eat ducks” and to throw their paper airplane safely. There were two “paper airplane deluges” during the ceremony in which the audience attempted to throw their creations – safely – at a target in the middle of the stage. Among those collecting their prizes was a Japanese research team led by Ryo Okabe and Takanori Takebe who discovered that mammals can breathe through their anuses. They say in their paper that this potentially offers an alternative way of getting oxygen into critically ill patients if ventilator and artificial lung supplies run low, like they did during the Covid-19 pandemic. American psychologist B.F Skinner was posthumously awarded the peace prize for his work attempting to use pigeons to guide the flight path of missiles, while a European-wide research team was awarded the probability prize for conducting 350,757 experiments to demonstrate that a coin tends to land on the same side it started when it is flipped.
