☆ Vitesco says new Schaeffler offer for EV merger 'inadequate'

The Vitesco company logo is seen at Continental's pilot location for industry 4.0 applications in Regensburg, Germany, February 28, 2020. REUTERS/Michael Dalder/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 27 (Reuters) - German automotive supplier Schaeffler (SHA_p.DE) raised its offer price for shares in Vitesco Technologies (VTSCn.DE) on Monday, as a goodwill gesture, but Vitesco management said the new offer was "inadequate". Germany's billionaire Schaeffler family holds all voting rights and 75% of shares in its namesake supplier of electric vehicle components. It also owns close to 50% of Vitesco, making the likelihood the merger will be agreed all but certain. However, under pressure from some investors, who said the original offer of 91 euros per share was too low, it increased its offer price to 94 euros ($102.53) per share in Vitesco.

"Thirty of us went out, 16 including my brother got back, five of us got captured and nine got killed," Hay said. He is now an active ambassador for the nearby British Normandy Memorial, overlooking Gold Beach in the UK sector. Until two years ago, Britain was alone among allies on the Western front in not having a dedicated Normandy memorial. The 30-million-pound ($37 million) memorial was financed by fines levied on banks by the British government, as well as private donations. In a forest near Regensburg, Germany, guns approached from the West and the German commanding officer accepted the war was over.

☆ BMW tests hydrogen burner in Leipzig paint shop, expands battery assembly lines

LEIPZIG, Germany, Oct 20 (Reuters) - BMW (BMWG.DE) is testing a burner able to operate on both hydrogen and gas in its paint shop in Leipzig, the carmaker said on Thursday, as it also announced an 800-million-euro ($782 million) investment in new battery assembly lines at the plant. The burner, developed together with combustion technology firm Saacke with the aim of reducing carbon emissions in the production process, is able to switch from hydrogen to gas or vice-versa while in use. Carmakers looking to reduce dependence on Russian gas have been struggling to find a solution for how to power their paint shops without the fuel.

Also on Thursday, BMW said it was adding a third battery assembly line and five cell varnishing lines to the Leipzig plant by 2024, with two more high voltage battery assembly lines to follow after that.
☆ Pope Benedict XVI, 1927-2022
  + stars: | 2005-04-19 | by ( The Editorial Board | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI died Saturday at age 95 at the monastery inside the Vatican where he’d been living since he resigned in 2013—the first pope to resign in nearly 600 years. His reason for stepping down was straightforward: Then age 85, he was no longer up to the demands of the job. But the writings of the man born Joseph Ratzinger are the most significant legacy of his life and papacy. They reflect his theological focus on the interplay between reason and faith, or between Athens and Jerusalem in the Western philosophical tradition. This was the message of his 2006 address at the University of Regensburg, which was widely misinterpreted as an attack on Islam.
