PT KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Tokyo Broadcasting System and Mainichi Broadcasting System have announced a new live-action drama based on Final Fantasy XIV. The full name of the show is Final Fantasy XIV: Hikari no Otousan, which roughly translates to Final Fantasy XIV: The Father of Light. Japanese creators have unfortunately given it the English subtitle of "Daddy of Light". PT KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - The show is adaptation of a true story related on a Japanese blog of the same title. The blog involves the story of a son with a strained relationship and lack of communication with his father. The son gives his gamer dad a copy of Final Fantasy XIV for PlayStation 4 and some game time cards as a gift. As the father gets into the game, the son joins him online, helping him through FFXIV without revealing his true identity. The son wrote the blog, detailing his experiences with his unknowing dad. In Japan, the show will launch on Netflix on April 20. Worldwide audiences will have to wait until Fall, but Daddy of Light will, in fact, have an international release on Netflix as well.

Speaking with Autocar, Mustafa said that while there aren’t any plans to implement hybrid powertrains as a performance enhancer or to improve emissions and fuel economy, the automaker isn’t opposed to using them in the future. Back in 2010, Jaguar revealed the C-X75 Concept, a supercar that featured a hybrid powertrain that combined diesel-powered and water-cooled turbines with four electric motors for a total output of 780 hp and 1,179 lb-ft of torque. Mustafa also added that even though most of the vehicles in Jaguar‘s lineup are built with achieving good emissions in mind, there’s currently no urgency in putting a powertrain in the F-Type that wouldn’t suit the car just to make it more environmentally friendly.
KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - “We always look at ways of improving the car but it’s got to be the right application for a sports car,” Mustafa told Autocar. The revelation comes right after the reveal of the refreshed 2018 F-Type sports car, which is now available with a new Ingenium 2.0-liter turbo-four rated at 296 hp and 295 lb-ft that’s coupled to an eight-speed automatic transmission, making it the new base engine. This new engine was also recently added to the XE, XF, and F-Pace but it’s less powerful in those applications at 249 hp and 269 lb-ft. Despite being the least powerful and cheapest F-Type available, Mustafa pointed out that the four-cylinder model has its own character that distinguishes it from the six- and eight-cylinder-powered variants.

Lately, it seems like I have about a 50% chance of finding fibrous little strings when I slice open a supermarket avocado. Sometimes the flesh is a darker brown color, making the strings easy to identify. But other times they aren't clearly visible until I start mashing my avocado toast. It doesn't seem to matter whether I buy them at Trader Joe's or splurge for the fancy ones at Whole Foods—and an informal poll of my avocado-loving Health colleagues suggests that this happens to everyone occasionally.
PT KONTAK PERKASA - I know this is not a meal-ruining problem; strings or no, avocados are delicious and amazing and nutritional powerhouses. But for about $2 each, I would prefer to buy ones that are creamy and smooth. According to Mary Lu Arpaia, PhD, an extension subtropical horticulturist at the University of California, Riverside who works with the California Avocado Commission, these strings are actually the vascular bundles that bring nutrients and water into the fruit. The vascular bundles serve an important purpose: they are the internal "plumbing" within the tree and connect the fruit to the rest of the tree (yes, avocados are a fruit). Arpaia explains that there are a few different reasons why some avocados develop more prominent vascular bundles, the first being simple genetics. "Some varieties just tend to be stringier than others," she says. "Hass generally is not stringy, but you do run into fruit that are [stringy] from this variety. On the other hand, Stuart, which is a rich, nutty-flavored variety, almost always is stringy." There may also be a "grower effect" when it comes to avocado texture. "Over the years, when we have done experiments with fruit from multiple growers, we have noted that some have 'stringier' fruit than others," says Arpaia. RELATED: 25 Amazing Avocado Recipes for the Avo-Obsessed And while there aren't any external signs that an avocado is going to be stringy (you have to cut it open to be 100% certain, she confirms), fruit maturity (how long the fruit has been on the tree) and seasonality can play a role. "Early season fruit tend to be stringier than mid- or late-season fruit," Arpaia says. This means if you're buying California Hass avocados, if they are going to be stringy they'll most likely be stringy early in their season, which lasts from January until September. Peruvian Hass avocados are in season from April until August, while Chilean avocados from August until early spring. Seasonality of avocados from Mexico is a little more difficult to pinpoint, since trees in Michoacán flower several times of year, contributing to several annual "fruit seasons." Although more research is needed to understand why avocado texture tends to become creamier later in the season, Arpaia believes the ripening process may have something to do with it. "My guess is that as the fruit gets more mature, the enzymes responsible for ripening are more active, and this results in more cell wall breakdown, even to the strings," she says. "But this is just a guess with no evidence to support." It is possible that increased demand for the versatile fruit has contributed to more less-mature avocados or fruit from younger trees in circulation. "Avocados have gained so much attention and demand, for good reason," says Wendy Bazilian, DrPH, RD, author of Eat Clean, Stay Lean. "Keeping up with this demand has likely created more plants, and more immature ones that are 'coming up' and maturing naturally." But experts agree that with or without strings, you'll benefit from the many health perks of avocados, including heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, phytonutrients, fiber, vitamin E, potassium, folate, and more. "Theoretically, a younger fruit or tree may have lower nutrients in an area or two potentially, but we don't really know for sure—and I would say that it would probably be a fairly insignificant difference at best," says Bazilian. Nor will they change the way your favorite avocado dishes taste. "I know that strings can be a nuisance at times," says Arpaia. "But they should not influence the flavor of the fruit."

KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Luis Enrique's side made history by overturning a 4-0 deficit to knock PSG out 6-1 in the last round of the competition, but they will have to perform a similar feat at the Nou Camp next Wednesday after a dismal night in Turin. Dybala got the ball rolling with an impressive first-half brace, and Giorgio Chiellini added a third with a header after the break for Juventus in the first meeting between the sides since Barcelona's win in the 2015 Champions League final. Juventus' forward Dybala scored twice in the Champions League tie Juventus started on top and it took just seven minutes for Dybala to find the opener, receiving a pass in the box from Juan Cuadrado before turning and curling a fine effort into the bottom corner. Barcelona composed themselves as they started to dominate possession, and after 21 minutes they had a glorious opportunity to equalise through Andres Iniesta, who made an intelligent run in behind Juventus' defence to receive a pass from Lionel Messi, but saw his effort kept out by Gianluigi Buffon. Barcelona's Lionel Messi reacts during the Champions League quarter-final first leg And Juventus would make Barcelona pay for that miss, as they doubled their lead just a minute later. Again it was Dybala who beat Marc-Andre ter Stegen, curling the ball just inside the near post from the edge of the area after being picked out by Mario Mandzukic. Barcelona did have the ball in the back of the net in the first half, only to be denied by the offside flag. Messi robbed the ball off Sami Khedira deep in Juventus territory before playing a one-two with Luis Suarez and going on to score, but the Uruguayan striker was ahead of play and the goal was correctly ruled out. Chiellini celebrates making it 3-0 for Juventus The Spanish giants continued to dominate possession at the start of the second half, with Messi and Iniesta both going close, but after 55 minutes Juventus made it 3-0. Gonzalo Higuain blew a glorious opportunity when through on goal to score but, from the resulting corner, Chiellini wrestled away Javier Mascherano at the far post before nodding home.
Barcelona continued to probe for a way back into the game, but there was no way through the experienced Juventus back line, who saw the game out in relative comfort.
