Whom did the court sentence to two years in prison for refusing to testify in their defense?

Serbian nationalist politician Vojislav Seselj spent more than 11 years in a pre-trial detention cell in The Hague, where the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia operates. The court sentenced him first to 15 and then to 18 months in prison for disclosing information about witnesses for the prosecution. Seselj was then given a third contempt sentence - he received two years for refusing to testify in his defense. Only in November 2014 he was allowed to return to Serbia, given a conditional release for health reasons, and in 2016 he was fully acquitted.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Oracle Data Cloud Platform 25.07.2014

Oracle Corporation announced the Oracle Data Cloud cloud platform and two new products within it - Oracle DaaS for Marketing and Oracle DaaS for Social. As Oracle told CNews, the corporation has combined BlueKai Audience Data Marketplace with other data services to create a single Data Cloud platform that provides organizations with access to DaaS solutions (Data-as-a-Service - "data as a service"), including a marketing solution Oracle Data as a Service for Marketing (Oracle DaaS for Marketing) and social media solution Oracle Data as a Service for Social (Oracle DaaS for Social).

Oracle DaaS cloud solutions provide data collection and processing services for subsequent use (data ingestion), selection of the most valuable (value extraction), rights management (rights management) and data activation (data activation) to obtain important knowledge for the work of marketing, sales and service. In addition, Oracle's DaaS offerings empower businesses with the ability to "connect" to applications as well as other Oracle Cloud platforms, Oracle said.

For example, the Oracle DaaS for Marketing solution, available in a new subscription model, provides marketers with access to a vast and diverse array of anonymous user-level data from offline, online and mobile data sources (according to the developers, the solution provides access to more than 1 billion profiles on around the world). This data is collected from verified and trustworthy sources, which allows us to guarantee compliance with legal requirements for the security and confidentiality of information, the corporation noted.

In general, DaaS for Marketing helps organizations optimize customer experiences across multiple channels (online and mobile channels, social interactions, video, and search) through targeted marketing that leverages enterprise-wide consolidated customer and consumer audience data. At the same time, the solution provides marketers with access to a dedicated ecosystem of partners to support marketing initiatives across online, mobile, social channels and search engines.

In turn, the Oracle DaaS for Social solution, currently available on a limited basis, categorizes and enriches unstructured data from both enterprise and social media sources, providing insights into customers, competitors, and market trends. The solution extracts business-critical insights from more than 700 million social media posts generated daily, covering more than 40 million social media sites and news resources, the developers say.
