「脱炭素実現へ GX体験イベントの　電動モビリティーに“GXカレー”も」　私たちの未来を変える脱炭素社会を体験できます。スマホで操縦できる和風の電動モビリティーに、伝統と最新技術が融合した電動の山車。17日から始まる『TOKYO GX ACTION』。開幕を前に、展示の一部が16日、報道陣に公開されました。TOKYO GX ACTIONは、その名のとおり、脱炭素社会の実現に向けたグリーントランスフォーメーションを体験できるイベントです。イベントを主催する東京都は。東京都産業労働局 産業･エネルギー政策部 毛塚健太計画担当課長：このプロジェクトが昨年の9月からスタートしたが、10月に1回アンケートを実施している。GXの認知度を聞いたところ、2割ぐらいの方しか認知していなかった。こういった普及啓発を通して都民の認知度を上げていくことが非常に重要。様々な分野にわたるGXの取り組み。その一つにカレーもあります。このカレーは、冷めた状態でおいしく食べられるように作られていて、再加熱のエネルギーを必要としません。大豆由来の代替肉「ソヤチャンク」を使ったビリヤニも。17日以降は、規格外の野菜や未利用魚を使い、フードロス削減につながるカレーなど13の店が“GXカレー”を提供します。廃棄された傘をアップサイクルした、おしゃれなバッグが並ぶブースも。また、会場を彩るアート作品はよく見ると、その一部に靴が使われています。これらの作品の材料は海洋ごみ。先ほどのバッグ同様、再び価値を与えられたものです。究極の目標は、このイベントの価値がなくなることだといいます。TOKYO GX ACTION総合プロデューサー・佐藤勇介さん：今はエンタメ・モビリティー色んなものを通じて脱炭素を普及しているが、このスタイルがある程度確立されれば、多くのイベントに出ているものはすでに脱炭素のものになる。こういう脱炭素イベントという形は今後はなくなっていくと思う。

二酸化炭素（CO2）を回収・貯留・再利用する「CCUS」。各国・企業が最新技術でしのぎを削るなか、日本での活用拡大にはどのようなハードルがあるのか。ENEOS子会社が米国で運営する世界最大級のCO2回収装置を参考に、NIKKEI GXの京塚環編集長が解説します。スキマ時間に刺さる音声コンテンツNIKKEI PrimeVOICE（日経プライムボイス）は専門メディア編集長6人がイチ押し記事をお届けします。日経プライムボイスは毎週木曜配信。公式SNS「日経ポッドキャスト」から #プライムボイス で感想をお寄せください。■NIKKEI GX編集長　京塚環　記者として機械、電機、商社、スタートアップを担当。2013年から4年間バンコクに駐在した。GXではカーボンクレジット制度などを幅広く取材してきた。海好きで、海の環境変化を肌で感じる日々。25年4月から現職。【NIKKEI Prime】日経グループの多彩な新メディア。会員登録は⁠⁠こちら⁠⁠から⁠⁠https://www.nikkei.com/promotion/service/prime/⁠⁠【NIKKEI PODCAST】　日経電子版Podcastポータルサイト：⁠⁠⁠https://www.nikkei.com/special/podcast⁠　Xアカウント：⁠⁠@nikkeipodcast⁠⁠ （⁠⁠https://x.com/nikkeipodcast⁠⁠）　Instagramアカウント：⁠⁠@nikkeipodcast⁠⁠（⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/nikkeipodcast/⁠⁠）■NIKKEI Primeの各媒体▽モビリティの未来を先取りするNIKKEI Mobility（小泉裕之編集長）▽脱炭素時代の変革のヒントを追うNIKKEI GX（京塚環編集長）▽最先端技術や知財戦略を探るNIKKEI Tech Foresight（久米秀尚編集長）▽デジタル・AI時代のルールを読み解くNIKKEI Digital Governance（中西豊紀編集長）▽FTの厳選記事で世界の潮流をつかむNIKKEI FT the World（檀上誠編集長）▽難解なニュースも短時間で確実に理解できるMinutes by NIKKEI（渡部加奈子編集長）

We got a chance to hangout with Will @aventure_rig. He had some interesting stories to share with us. What it's been like living in his 70 series Land Cruiser full time over the last year. Or now as he sets up his new GX 470. We find out some of the popular and questionable trends in Japanese car culture. As well as fun trips, camping style, airsoft and a bunch more.

The hosts are headed to Duel Academy as they cover the Graduation Ceremony duel between the school's greatest Senior duelist, Kaiser Ryo, and the series' main character, Judai Yuki! While the stakes are low, the love for the game is at its highest between these two duelists as they test each other's ability as duelists. Tune in for their thoughts on this week's anime battle, as well as how GX's setting & plot differ from Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters to ask if the sequel stands well next to the original series!Follow The Lookout Network on Twitter: @TheLookoutRNCFollow Dee on Twitter: @DeeWeTrustFollow Jay on Twitter: @VersaceVegeta_

This week the Unnamed Automotive Podcast ditches its unibody for a body on frame setup as our hosts tackle a pair of off-road oriented trucks. Benjamin tests out the 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor, a performance-oriented version of the midsize pickup that has dune bashing and baja racing on its ECU. Benjamin discusses where the new Ranger improves upon the old one, and whether this is the king of off-road performance mid-size trucks. Then Sami dons his Prada sunglasses and jumps into the 2025 Lexus GX 550, a rugged off-road luxury SUV thats based on the Toyota Land Cruiser, but boasts a bigger engine and fancier appointments. This Overtrail+ model sports more ground clearance, but Sami thinks that Lexus has a lot to prove against something as tested as the Land Rover Defender. Thanks for listening!

Hello everyone, welcome once again to Motos and Friends, the podcast brought to you by the Editors at Ultimate Motorcycling magazine.  My name is Arthur Coldwells. This week, Editor Don Williams tells us about Honda's revamped version of its mid-size ADV-bike, the Honda NX500. The NX is a lot more than just a rebadged CB500X though, although it is the same reliable, versatile, broadly accommodating motorcycle it has been for over a decade. While the NX500 isn't likely to be the coolest bike in your garage, it might be the most versatile and practical, and despite a litany of upgrades and new features, it's only $100 more than last year's CB500X‚ so it's definitely a steal. Honda clearly hasn't lost sight of what makes their midsize adventure bike so appealing, and Don thoroughly enjoyed putting it through its paces.  As many listeners may know, I had the new Suzuki GSX-S1000 GX+ on long-term test until recently, and frankly I loved the bike from the outset. The GX+ is now considered to be Suzuki's flagship. With its plethora of features and complex electronics systems, I decided to ask Chase Rastegar and Avery Innis from Suzuki to appear on this episode as I wanted them to de-mystify the GX+ and find out what really makes it so very good.   Here's a quick reminder to leave us your comments on our social media—we're on all the usual platforms at Ultimate Motorcycling. We love hearing your feedback… so good or bad, please let us know what you think. If there's something you'd like us to cover, we'd love to hear those ideas too! Anyway, from all of us here at Ultimate Motorcycling, we hope you enjoy this episode. Oh and FYI… if you're on iOS, you can listen to this podcast on the new Faidr App. That's F-A-I-D-R, and it's a new concept in podcasting. We love your feedback!

Seems a little late for disco. 03:10 37:30 13.   Denny Hinman, “Christmas in July” from Plays The Yamaha Electone E-70 (1980 Yamaha). Denny Hinman plays the Yamaha Electone E-70.

I found what is likely a one-of-a-disc private pressing by Frank Collett using the Moog Modular Synthesizer. This 45 RPM disc was recorded at Finetone Recording Studio in New York City and is inscribed with the hand-written message, “To John & Loretta: Merry XMAS. Composed and arranged by Frank Collett” This appears to be disc made of metal with a vinyl coating. One side includes his rendition of Bach's “Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring” plus a short tune called “Little Joey” (see below). The flip side contains the same recording of “Little Joey.” Dated December 22, 1970. Clearly made using a Moog Modular Synthesizer. Collett (1941-2016) was a noted session pianist and sometimes led and recorded with his own trio. He was raised in New York. In 1968 he was accompanist to Sarah Vaughan. The following year he moved to Las Vegas, Nevada.  He became the house pianist, with the orchestra in the main showroom of the International Hotel (which became the Las Vegas Hilton).  It was during this period that he made this recording in NY.  01:57 49:44 17.   Frank Collett, “Little Joey” (1970 Privately Made Release). Frank Collett using the Moog Modular Synthesizer. From a 45 RPM disc recorded at Finetone Recording Studio in New York City (see above). Dated December 22, 1970. Clearly made using a Moog Modular Synthesizer. Collett (1941-2016) was a noted session pianist and sometimes led and recorded with his own trio. Moog Modular Synthesiser, Frank Collett. Whose Moog Synthesizer did he use to make this recording? I can only speculate and guess that he made the recording at the studio of Gerson Kingsley in New York. 01:56 51:40 18.   Romantic Synthesizer, “Oh Tannenbaum” from Christmas Memories (1983 Dureco Benelux). French-Dutch album. Arranged, produced, synthesizers by Gerto Heupink, Robert Pot. 02:53 53:34 19.   Keiko Ohta (Ota), “Here Comes Santa Claus” from Electone X'Mas Present (1975 Canyon). Yamaha Electone GX-707 (GX-1), arranged by Keiko Ohta. Ohta was a female Electone star from Japan. The GX-1 was an early polyphonic synthesizer and a new branch of the Yamaha Electone family tree. 02:43 56:24 20.   Keiko Ohta (Ota), “Blue Christmas” from Electone X'Mas Present (1975 Canyon). Yamaha Electone GX-707 (GX-1), arranged by Keiko Ohta. Japan. Yes, the song originally made famous by Elvis Presley. Ohta was a female Electone star from Japan.

Les Cousins Dangereux is Mr. Tim Thornton. 01:59 01:06:00 23.   Joy Electric, “Angels We Have Heard on High” from The Magic Of Christmas (2003 Tooth & Nail Records). Joy Electric is Ronnie Martin from Ohio. American synthesizer-pop musician. Among his many releases is this crafty Christmas album. 01:48 01:07:58 24.   Koichi Oki, “Jingle Bells” from The Man From Yukiguni (1975 TIM/RS). Japan. Koichi Oki's Christmas album performed solely by his Yamaha Electone E-3. “Yukiguni” means snowland. Oki was a hugely popular Electone artist in Japan. 01:50 01:09:46 25.   Koichi Oki, “Winter Wonderland” from The Man From Yukiguni (1975 TIM/RS). Japan. Koichi Oki's Christmas album performed solely by his Yamaha Electone E-3. “Yukiguni” means snowland. Oki was a hugely popular Electone artist in Japan. 02:18 01:11:34 26.   Edhels, “Oriental Christmas” from Oriental Christmas (1985 Cabana Music). Recorded in France. Drums, Percussion, Keyboards, Jacky Rosati; Guitar, Jean Louis Suzzoni; Guitar, Bass, Keyboards, Composed by, Marc Ceccotti; Keyboards, Noël Damon. I was sent this as a promotional album back in 1985 with a kind little note from the artists. Sorry it took me so long to put the Christmas-related track in my podcast. This is great example of synth-pop from France in the 1980s. 04:22 01:13:52 27.   Bob Wehrman, John Bezjian and Dusty Wakeman, “Joy to the World” from Christmas Becomes Electric (1984 Tropical Records).

Arranged, produced, synthesizers by Gerto Heupink, Robert Pot. We don't often hear an instrumental rendition of this Lennon and Ono X-mas tune. 03:22 01:22:34 30.   Swinging Buildings, “Praying For A Cheaper Christmas” from Chantons Noël - Ghosts Of Christmas Past (1981 Les Disques Du Crépuscule). From a compilation album of Christmas-related tunes. This group was once rumored to be New Order in disguise. But no, they were in fact The Bowling Balls in disguise. 03:07 01:25:54 31.   Bernie Krause, Philip Aaberg, “Feliz Navidad” from A Wild Christmas (1994 Etherean Music ). This delightful cassette is from Bernie Krause, known for his Moog explorations with Paul Beaver back in the day. All animal and ambient sounds recorded on location worldwide by Bernie Krause with the exception of the fish (courtesy of U.S. Navy). Animal samples, Bernie Krause and Phil Aaberg. Arrangements, new materials, all keyboards (Kurzweil 2000/Emulator III) Phil Aaberg.

The whole Star Wars crew seems to have a part in this holiday album. I wanted to highlight a track featuring the melodious electronic beeping of R2D2. 03:33 01:34:34 Opening background music: Sounds Of Broadcasting 1, “Christmas Logos” from Sounds Of Broadcasting #6088 (1975? William B. Tanner Company, Inc.). Broadcast library track produced for the holidays. Produced using a Moog Modular Synthesizer. Notice how the melody imitates a familiar tune without ever hitting the same notes. A copyright thing. Another name of this track might as well be, “It's Beginning to Sound A Lot Like Christmas.” Jean Jacques Perrey and Sy Mann, “Tijuana Christmas” from Switched on Santa (1970 Pickwick). USA. Moog Modular Synthesizer. Don Voegeli, “Chanukah” from Holiday & Seasonal Music (1977 EMI). USA.

「「高浜原発1号機」が運転開始から50年　最長60年までの運転が許可　「GX脱炭素電源法」施行で60年超えた運転も可能に　福井・高浜町」　国内で運転している原発で最も古い、関西電力高浜原発1号機が運転開始から50年を迎えました。福井県高浜町にある、関西電力高浜原発1号機は1974年11月14日に運転を開始しました。現在の制度で最長60年までの運転を認められていて、10月、今後10年間の施設の管理方針を盛り込んだ「保安規定」が国の原子力規制委員会から認可され、国内で初めて50年を超える運転に道が開けました。一方、「GX脱炭素電源法」が2025年6月に施行されると60年を超えた運転も可能になります。改めて規制委員会の認可を得る必要はありますが、長期運転に伴う設備の劣化などへの対策や、より高い安全性の確保が求められます。

It's no unibody crossover. The capable body-on-frame Lexus GX 550 is all-new and ready to conquer tough terrain, tow up to 9,000 pounds or deliver a family of seven to the movies. The tough looking sheetmetal rides on a new fully boxed frame architecture that's shared with Tundra, Tacoma and big brother LX. The V8 is gone. Until the hybrid powertrain arrives, all GXs get their motivation from a twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V6 that pumps out 349 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque mated to a 10-speed automatic. Tom Voelk travels to Tucson, AZ to drive a GX 550 Premium + model in Nightfall Mica.

It's a fine Monday on this final week of February as we talk about the efforts to stave off a massive wave of potentially industry-killing EVs. We also get back to the new car markup debate on a new Lexus, as well as a sweet move to ease connectivity frustrations. Show Notes with links:In a unified stance against major disruption, a bipartisan group of lawmakers are advocating for Joe Biden to halt imports of low-cost Chinese autos from Mexico, fearing a catastrophic impact on the domestic auto industry.The Alliance for American Manufacturing is also turning up the pressure to block Chinese EVs and parts imports from Mexico to protect U.S. industry from "extinction-level" threats.Chinese vehicles, benefiting from strong government subsidies, could exploit a N.A. free trade agreements, potentially causing significant job losses in the U.S. which is why he group pressed U.S. Trade Rep Katherine Tai to increase the 27.5% tariff on Chinese vehiclesChina's BYD is the largest target as they are  setting up an EV factory in Mexico, as U.S. lawmakers call for increased tariffs and strategic restrictions on imports."The commercial backdoor left open to Chinese auto imports should be shut before it causes mass plant closures and job losses in the United States," warns the Alliance for American Manufacturing.A Dallas-area Lexus dealership may be jumping the gun with a mark up on the not-yet-released 2024 GX model, a move that's getting some attention and reviving the conversation around new vehicle markups.Before its arrival, an unknown Lexus dealership (or maybe just rogue employee) in Dallas posted a marked up 2024 GX at $27,250 over MSRP on CraigslistThe 2024 GX 550 Luxury's starting price is $77,250; with the markup, it's listed at $105,000.The listing's ambiguity is causing speculation on whether a rogue salesperson or sales manager is to blame.With the high demand for this new addition to the Lexus lineup, this isn't likely to be the last markup attempt we seeThe writer of the Jalopnik article Lawrence Hodge urges "Don't indulge this.

Then it’s time to take a look at Samaritan Ministries. It’s Biblical, affordable health care sharing, with no restrictive networks. Here’s how it works.

The measure, which passed by a vote of 314 to 108, angered conservative Republicans who opposed any continuing resolution to fund the government without concessions by the Democrats on border security and spending. The House Freedom Caucus made an eleventh-hour plea to House Speaker Mike Johnson to permit an amendment to the House’s border security package, which Johnson rejected. Freedom Caucus Chairman Bob Good slammed his fellow Republicans who supported the continuing resolution ahead of the vote. “The more things change, the more things stay the same,” he said in a floor speech. “We’re not even willing to risk a temporary pause in the 15 percent of the non-essential part of the government in order to force change in Washington,” he said. “No, we’re going to continue the status quo.” Good’s statements echoed an official position on the measure released by the Freedom Caucus hours before the vote. “Americans did not give Republicans a majority in the House to continue Nancy Pelosi’s inflationary spending and Joe Biden’s failed policies,” the group wrote in a statement. “This is not what we promised the American people.” The vote is also likely to be unpopular with the Republican base, which consistently ranks immigration as one of the top issues facing the country. Over 80 percent of Republican voters agree with President Donald Trump that the ongoing border crisis is “poisoning the blood” of America. https://dailycaller.com/2024/01/17/blue-state-officials-pay-thousands-barring-church-preschool-lunch-program-beliefs-gender/ Blue State Officials Agree To Pay Thousands After Barring Church From Preschool Lunch Program For Beliefs On Gender California state officials agreed to settle with the Church of Compassion and Dayspring Christian Learning Center Tuesday for nearly $200,000 after trying to exclude the church from the state’s preschool lunch program. The church and the center, alongside Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), filed a lawsuit in June last year alleging that officials with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the California Department of Social Services barred them from participating in the “Child and Adult Food Care Program” because of their religious beliefs on gender and sex. ADF and state officials filed a settlement agreement this week requiring the defendants to pay $30,000 for meals paid out of pocket in the absence of state funding and $160,000 for attorney’s fees. “In the name of combatting discrimination, government officials excluded the church and preschool from serving the El Cajon community based solely on their religious beliefs and exercise,” Jeremiah Galus, senior counsel for ADF, said in a press release. “While it shouldn’t have taken a lawsuit to resolve this, at least now Church of Compassion can continue its vital outreach to needy children and families.” The center had been a part of the USDA’s program for nearly two decades when the department changed its rules in 2021 requiring all participants to commit to not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity. In May 2023, the department also required state directors of USDA’s food and nutrition service programs to prohibit “discrimination on the basis of gender identity and sexual orientation.” Church of Compassion and Dayspring Christian Learning Center failed to meet these new requirements for the 2022-2023 school year because of their beliefs on “human sexuality” and their refusal to “use any child or employee’s ‘preferred’ pronouns that do not correspond to biological sex,” according to the lawsuit. ADF argued that the department and state officials were deliberately discriminating against the church and the learning center because of its faith in violation of the First Amendment. “The government can’t withhold food from families in need simply because their children attend a Christian preschool. The Constitution protects the right of Church of Compassion and its preschool to operate according to the dictates of their faith,” Galus said in the press release. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/madelineleesman/2024/01/17/lgbt-activist-arrested-child-predator-sting-n2633750 Director of LGBTQ+ Organization That Helps Minors Arrested in Child Sex Sting The executive director of the pro-LGBTQ+ organization Rainbow Research Center was apprehended on suspicion of attempting to engage in sexual activities with a minor, according to The Modesto Bee. Reportedly, a total of 17 men were arrested on suspicion of eliciting sex with a minor after an undercover sting conducted by the Turlock Police Department in California. Gerard Slayton, 42, was one of them (via the Bee): Slayton recently was appointed executive director of the Rainbow Center, a local nonprofit organization that provides resources to LGBTQ+ members of all ages. It particularly offers resources related to mental and physical health. In a statement shared on Facebook, the Rainbow Resource Center said that Slayton’s actions occurred “outside working hours and off-premises.” “Mr. Slayton’s actions do not represent our organization’s values or mission. In accordance with our unwavering commitment to upholding the highest standards of conduct and integrity, we are addressing the issue within the Rainbow Resource Center,” the statement read. “We are dedicated to rebuilding any trust that may have been affected by the situation. As an organization that is at the forefront of advocacy and support for the LGBTQ+ community, our actions must reflect our dedication to these principles,” it continued. https://dailycaller.com/2024/01/17/beijing-china-wuhan-covid-19-100-percent-death-mice-study-full-paper/ Mutant COVID-19 Strain With 100% Kill Rate Developed In China A pre-peer-reviewed study published in early January described how mice were exposed to a human-based “lethal infection” of COVID-19 with a 100% mortality rate. The Beijing-based research paper was submitted to the scientific preprint site BioRXiv and published prior to peer review, but the data held within the pages is significant. Two SARS-CoV-2-related pangolin coronaviruses (GD/2019, GX/2017) were identified prior to the major COVID-19 outbreak in late 2019 through early 2020, according to the study’s authors. The researchers then isolated “mutant” strains, which were cultured in labs between 2017 and 2020. When the infectivity and pathogenicity of the isolates were tested, it was found to easily infect golden hamsters and mice. The first isolate pCoV-GD01 had a higher homology than COVID-19, whereas GX_P2V didn’t seem to cause any disease in the animals despite infection. But an early passaged GX_P2V isolate, named GX_P2v(short_3UTR) not only infected mice with extremely high viral loads into their lung and brain tissue, but eventually killed 100% of the mice within the study. Even those mice who were given an inoculation (i.e., vaccinated) succumbed to the disease. Autopsy of the mice showed viral RNA in the brain, lung, turbinate, eye and trachea, killing all of the mice within eight days of infection. All of the mice’s eyes also went white the day before they died. The authors argued this is the first report that COVID-19-related pangolin coronavirus can cause 100% mortality rates in mice, suggesting a significant risk of the disease spilling over into humans. But since the study is not peer-reviewed, there are huge questions about the efficacy of the results. “I had a look at the preprint. It’s a terrible study, scientifically totally pointless. I can see nothing of vague interest that could be learned from force-infecting a weird breed of humanised mice with a random virus. Conversely, I could see how such stuff might go wrong …” University College London genetics director Francois Balloux wrote on Twitter. “The preprint does not specify the biosafety level and biosafety precautions used for the research.” Balloux’s statements were reiterated by Rutgers University chemistry professor Richard H. Ebright, who wrote “concur” under the comment. It appears the biggest concern is related to why scientists feel the need to develop these horrific diseases. “The absence of this information raises the concerning possibility that part or all of this research, like the research in Wuhan in 2016-2019 that likely caused the Covid-19 pandemic, recklessly was performed without the minimal biosafety containment and practices essential for research with potential pandemic pathogens,” Balloux concluded. And it’s pretty hard to argue with his stance. China is already inching back toward lockdowns as mysterious viruses spread throughout the country. Most of these illnesses are being blamed on influenza strains and other respiratory diseases, but no single culprit has been identified to date.

The small Encore crossover has been Buick's best-selling car for years now. The 2024 Encore GX (the smaller non-GX model is discontinued) gets the brand's new face from the Wildcat concept vehicle, a new instrument panel and the reimagined Tri-Shield logo. Is this enough to temp buyers away from mainstream competitors like Mazda CX-30, Honda HR-V or Kia Seltos (or even spendy rigs like Audi Q3, BMW X1, Mercedes GLA or Volvo XC 40)? Tom Voelk checks out a mid-level trim Sport Touring model with the popular option packages.

Factor's new O2 VAM sounds like quite the climbing bike: light, stiff, comfy, and newly aero. But is it too light for the pros? Maybe. There doesn't seem to be any debate about wider tires at the Tour, though, as even 28 mm doesn't seem like enough. SRAM has also brought its innovative Transmission mountain bike drivetrain technology down to the GX level, an Australian company wants to bring high-tech carbon fiber inspection to the bike shop level, and James gripes about water bottles. 4:15 — A roundtable on the new Factor O2 VAM climbing bike 16:25 — Even Tour racers have adopted big tires in a big way 27:00 — GX is now the least expensive Transmission version, and it might be the best one 35:55 — Is ultrasonic carbon fiber testing coming to bike shops? 49:26 — Zach has some thoughts on ever-widening cranks 59:15 — Water, water, everywhere, and too many leftover drops to drink 1:01:05 — Check your chain wear, folks!
