Alamy(Credit: Alamy)When The Shawshank Redemption came out 30 years ago this week, it seemed to have all the ingredients of a box-office smash.After all, it was based on a novella by one of the world’s best-selling authors, Stephen King, so it looked as if a ready-made fanbase would be interested in seeing it. Indeed, another story, The Body, taken from the same 1982 collection, Different Seasons, had been turned into a hugely successful movie, Stand by Me, in 1986. Director and screenwriter Frank Darabont believed that the story was so filmic that in 1987 he bought the rights to adapt…

The dual-sport Origin has a city range of 90 miles and a combined range of 70 miles. Riding flat out at average speeds above 55 mph, I saw about 50 miles of range. That’s enough of a difference to notice it in day to day use. The off-road knobby tires probably didn’t help those numbers, either.Both bikes come with the same 8.9-kWh battery pack. In the city, the Pulse delivers 11.2 miles per kWh. That slightly bests the efficiency of the nearest competitor, the Zero S ($14,995 and up) which delivers 154 miles of city range from a 14.4-kWh capacity…

That dialogue appears to have broken down. On Monday, UniCredit said it was about to overtake the German government as Commerzbank’s biggest shareholder with a 21 per cent stake after taking a position — pending regulatory…
