Quito, Dec 10 (EFE).- "I say to all of you that we unite in this fight to protect the green forest for future generations" this is the heartfelt message of Nemonte Nenquimo, the Ecuadorian indigenous leader which has been awarded this Thursday by the UN with the "Champions of the Earth" award.
This lush expanse of Amazon rainforest, close to the Yasuni Nature Reserve, will be home to an oil drilling operation from Ecuador's state oil company Petroamazonas for the first time ever, which seeks to tap into the large Tiputini oil field. Ecuadorian Vice-President Jorge Glas was present to inaugurate the drilling of the oil reserve, the biggest in the Andean country. The Tiputini field is expected to produce 1.67 billion barrels per year. After years of debate, Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa's government gave state-owned oil company Petroamazonas the green light to drill in the Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini (ITT) block, just outside of the Yasuni nature reserve. Environmental activists had called for a referendum on the decision but this was denied by the Correa government. The decision has been met with criticism from indigenous-rights and environmental groups.

The MMI operating concept is powered by the new third generation modular infotainment platform. Its computing power is ten times higher than that of its predecessor, it performs all tasks relating to connectivity, including telephony and the Audi connect services with LTE Advanced speed, and also has an integrated Wi-Fi hotspot.Individual settings can be stored in up to six user profiles - from climate control and the seat position to frequently selected navigation destinations and frequently used media. The DAB+ digital radio is included as standard and the online or hybrid radio is available as an option. Route guidance is even easier and more flexible. For example, the navigation offers predictions on the development of the traffic situation, high-resolution satellite images from Google Earth and detailed 3D models of many major European cities. Audi connect enriches points of interest with photos, opening hours and user reviews. The connect services also include the car-to-X services. They help with finding free parking spots on the roadside or allow the driver to surf the green wave by communicating with traffic lights. The A3 Sportback is connected to the smartphone via the myAudi app, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, as well as via the Audi phone box. The latter connects the device to the car antenna and charges it inductively. Amazon Alexa and the Audi connect key, which authorizes the customer to lock and unlock the car and start the engine via their Android smartphone, will follow shortly after the market launch.
A coolly riveting crime saga from director Richard Fleischer (The Boston Strangler, Soylent Green), Violent Saturday tells a brutal noir tale against blazing, sun-drenched Arizona landscapes. Three criminals arrive in the small mining town of Bradenville, planning on robbing its only bank. But as they start scouting the area and gathering the information they need, the lives of others in the town threaten to get mixed up in their scheme, in a tangle that could lead to disastrous consequences. Featuring the iconic Victor Mature and Lee Marvin, and with Ernest Borgnine in one of his most unforgettable roles, Violent Saturday is a fascinating gem of Hollywood storytelling, complete with memorably vicious and idiosyncratic details, brilliant performances, and stunning Cinemascope imagery. Violent Saturday is based on a novel by William L. Heath. VIOLENT SATURDAY will be released in a stunning blu-ray presentation as part of a Dual Format (Blu-ray & DVD) edition on 21 April 2014.
