V4 defence ministers: Ukraine could join V4 Battle Group
UKRAINE could be part of the Battle Group task force slated for launch in 2016 by the armies of the Visegrad Four (V4) countries (Slovakia, Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic), the V4 defence ministers said on June 3 at a session ahead of the official meeting of defence ministers of NATO-member states in Brussels.
"We discussed various forms of cooperation, not only Ukraine's participation in the V4 task force, on which we agreed," Slovak Defence Minister Martin Glváč told the TASR newswire. He added that during the Slovak presidency of the V4, which Slovakia will take over from Hungary as of July 1, it will be important for planned projects to become reality.
Hungarian Defence Minister Csaba Hende said that he has already discussed with Ukraine the ways in which it could help the battle group. Czech Defence Minister Martin Stropnický suggested that Ukraine should present specific proposals of how it could contribute to the joint task force.
All the defence ministers also reiterated their common interest in joining a battle group certification exercise and the NATO Trident Juncture 2015 exercise. Glváč at the meeting thanked Hungary for its outgoing V4 presidency and declared interest in building on previous successful cooperation. A plan for joint military exercises of the V4 armies should be created during the upcoming Slovak presidency.
Glváč proposed that the next meeting of V4 ministers - under the remit of the Slovak presidency - should be added to by Ukraine. "I proposed it and my suggestion was accepted," TASR quoted him as saying.
Slovakia, as the V4 president, will promote close cooperation of military intelligence services and that cooperation will be extended by Romania and the Baltic countries (Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia), according to Glváč. The details should be discussed during the visit of Polish Defence Minister Tomasz Siemoniak to Bratislava on June 12. Another of Glváč's initiatives involves a meeting of V4 military intelligence heads with the Ukrainian military intelligence top officials also present.

Spanish group gymnasts, Loreto Achaerandio and Lidia Redondo stopped doing Rhythmic Gymnastics. Lidia and Loreto joined National team 10 years ago, since they were juniors.
Loreto suffered from an injury since 2012 and after Olympic games in London, where she placed 4th with the team, had a foot surgery. In 2013 she was in the team but she didn't competed. Right now, Loreto is studying Medicine in Madrid.
Lidia, who turned 22 years old this month, also place 4th at 2012 London Olympic Games. In 2013 she won gold medal at World Cup Lisbon. But Lidia started getting medals since she was 11 years old in Spanish Tournaments.
In 2013, just before summer, Lidia suffered from an injury and could't compete at Kiev World Championships where Spain ranked first with 10 clubs.
Nowadays, Lidia is studying Phisical Education (INEF) in Madrid.


Billy being back at Jabot (and back in the elevator with Phyllis) works for me, and with 'Wiley' Kyle having proven to be too smart for his own good by unearthing Dina's secret about Jack, the writing is on the wall. Jack reminding Billy to temper his CEO-type aspirations was also foreshadowing – if Jack and Kyle are not, or believed not to be, Abbotts, that will leave Billy automatically in charge of the company. Oops. How will Jack and Kyle deal? A couple points – I'd have liked to see more of a shaken reaction from Kyle after he learned his father's identity, and his own, may be a lie. That's huge! Also, it's a little weird watching Kyle go along with Dina's delusion that he's her former lover in hopes of discovering the man's name.
As mentioned in the last Deconstructing Y&R, couples whose sexual chemistry leaps off the screen are compelling, and Hilary and Devon are no exception to that, however their reunion storyline, if that's what this is ultimately supposed to be, seemed to go a bit off the rails. I feel it's too many attempts to put up obstacles and hurdles in an effort to drag it out that is to blame. The characters' behavior has been skewed; at times more plot-driven than in-character or in line with history. Devon's been all over the place, defending Hilary one minute and deriding her nastily the next, and wasn't empathetic about Hilary's jealousy toward Simone after their night together, but rather completely disgusted, which felt off for him. Neil and Lily both came for Hilary, and Neil's high and mighty routine wasn't fitting given the history. While Lily's dislike of Hilary is understandable, she's forgiven, and asked her family to forgive, Cane's transgressions more than once, so while her anger creates soapy conflict, it shouldn't be taken to a point where it does her character a disservice. In light of all the drama, it was no surprise Hilary threw her hands up and announced the pregnancy live. It made for a good reactionary moment, but then came the next development – the chemical pregnancy – which was quite a blow. Here's hoping Devon will be the person who tunes into the fact that Hilary is deeply upset and it will prove to be a turning point in this marathon of hurdles.

More than 65,000 Coloradans are working in "clean energy" jobs and that is roughly equal to the the state's workforce in the oil, natural gas and coal industries, Gov. John Hickenlooper told a Pueblo crowd Tuesday night.
"The numbers of jobs like those created at Vestas, where the pay is good, those kinds of jobs far outweigh the cost of closing (coal-fired) power plants," Hickenlooper insisted to a crowd of more than 200 people at the Union Depot.
The governor said it was his third town hall meeting in the state and called the Pueblo crowd the largest to meet with him yet. He answered questions for 90 minutes and he was pressed on issues ranging from gun control to extracting natural gas by "fracking" wells."
He also was asked to do something about tailgating drivers in Pueblo.
The most boisterous exchange came when Hickenlooper was asked why he supported "Draconian" gun control laws in 2013 that limited the size of gun magazines and required background checks. One magazine manufacture, Magpul Industries, even left the state over the ban.
Hickenlooper pointed out the recent shooter in Las Vegas had used those high-capacity magazines in killing 58 people and wounding more than 500. He also used "bump stocks" to help his rifles shoot faster, like machine guns.
"Some people think bump stocks ought to be outlawed," Hickenlooper said, getting an ovation from many in the crowd but also a few boos from several men who called out the Second Amendment does not permit restrictions on owning firearms.
Hickenlooper countered that background checks had stopped hundreds of people -- convicted felons and others who can't legally own guns -- from purchasing them.
"And if you think criminals aren't dumb, we arrested more than 200 people who had outstanding warrants when they came to buy their guns," he said.
Asked why he appointed Wendy Moser, a former Black Hills Energy lawyer, to the Colorado Public Utilities Commission this year, Hickenlooper said he understood there were people who believed Moser might be biased in favor of the utility. He didn't think so.
"Remember I also appointed Frances Koncilja and there are people who would say she is biased, too (against Black Hills)," he countered, knowing the native Pueblo lawyer is popular for her criticism of Black Hills.
Both women pledged to do a conscientious job, he said. "And I can't fire them once I've appointed them."
Hickenlooper, a geologist by training, has been a strong supporter of fracking, where water is injected into natural gas wells to increase production. It's controversial and some communities, such as Broomfield, have tried to ban it, fearing the process endangers groundwater and creates other hazards.
The governor said he believes those communities that don't want those wells should buy those gas rights from property owners, and the state could help. That's not a popular idea, he acknowledged.
On immigration, Hickenlooper said the federal government -- not the state -- has the job of enforcing those laws. He blamed Congress for failing to provide effective visa programs, border security and employer regulations to manage immigration.
Not all the questions were major issues. One asked what Hickenlooper could do to stop drivers from tailgating other drivers in Pueblo.
That prompted the governor to tell a story about being driven back to Denver by his Colorado State Patrol driver one night when they noticed the car ahead was weaving all over Interstate 25. Hickenlooper said he told his driver to report the car.
"He said that wasn't necessary and just turned on our own (police) lights, so we made the stop," Hickenlooper said, getting a laugh from the audience. The driver was seriously drunk and Hickenlooper said they waited on the highway until local police came.

Any ideas?

A: This is not true.
For example, let $V=\mathbb{R}^2,a=x=(1,0)$ and $b=(0,1)$. Clearly $x$ is a linear combination of $a$ and $b$. However, we have $||x-a||+||x-b||=\sqrt2\neq0=||a||-||b||$.

Medical Marijuana, Inc. Portfolio Company Kannalife Sciences Finalizes Share Exchange Agreement with TYG Solutions
Aug 01, 2018, 09:00 ET
SAN DIEGO, Aug. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: MJNA), the first-ever publicly traded cannabis company in the United States, announced today that its portfolio company Kannalife Sciences, Inc. ("Kannalife"), a bio-pharmaceutical and phyto-medical company, has completed a share exchange offer with TYG Solutions Corp. (OTC: TYYG). The closing of this transaction marks an important step in making Kannalife the only publicly traded company in the cannabinoid therapeutics space with an exclusive license to a U.S. government patent from the National Institutes of Health ("NIH").
"We are thrilled to announce the completion of this share exchange agreement," said Medical Marijuana, Inc. CEO Dr. Stuart Titus. "Our company was an early investor in Kannalife, which has developed and patented specific cannabinoid-like molecules to create a targeted approach to treat medical conditions. We believe that Kannalife's powerful portfolio of IP sets the company apart in an increasingly competitive cannabinoid pharmaceutical market arena."
Kannalife Sciences currently holds two licenses with NIH. The first, an exclusive license for the commercialization of U.S. Patent #6,630,507, "Cannabinoids as Antioxidants and Neuroprotectants" (the "'507 Patent"), to research and develop novel cannabinoid-based therapeutics to treat hepatic encephalopathy (HE); and the second, a non-exclusive license under the same '507 Patent to treat chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).
"The completion of our share exchange transaction with TYYG has brought us to another starting point in the company's history – now as a publicly traded company. We now find ourselves in the middle of a very exciting, resurgent and hot biotechnology space, coupled with burgeoning investor interest in 'anything cannabis,'" Kannalife Sciences CEO Dean Petkanas said. "The transaction with TYYG allows us to look toward the future as a publicly traded company and continue our research into developing disruptive cannabinoid-based therapeutics for neurodegenerative and oxidative stress-related diseases."
Further, Kannalife has developed its own patented molecules led by KLS-13019 and was recently awarded U.S. Patent #9,611,213, "Functionalized 1,3-benzene diols and their method of use for the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy." These cannabidiol-derived new chemical entities (NCEs) are intended to advance some of the clinical benefits of CBD while improving upon some of the pharmacokinetic limitations of CBD. According to a February 10, 2016 publication in the American Chemical Society KLS-13019 was found to be 50-fold more potent as a neuroprotectant and >400-fold safer than cannabidiol (CBD).

It's no secret that the economy has shifted from one largely rooted in agriculture to one heavily dependant on knowledge and skills. That's why it's fitting that one Huntington business owner has transformed a once-functioning milk processing facility into what he hopes will be an incubator for startups.
But why now, and why this building?
Matt Wilcox, founder and president of Apollo Caster, Inc., had outgrown his previous facility and was looking to purchase a larger one.
Apollo Caster is a distributor of small material handling goods, such as casters, wheels, ball transfers, and glides. The company has been in growth mode over the last decade, and Wilcox was eager to find a space to accommodate his expanding operations.
Matt Wilcox, the founder of Apollo Caster, recently renovated a historic building in Huntington.
He was on the hunt for about two years before the opportunity presented itself in the form of a vacant Art Deco building at 1500 Etna Ave. The building was initially built in 1946 by the Fulton Milk Co. as a milk processing facility. It was later used by a printing company before it was vacated and sat unused for some time.
It turns out that Wilcox's pragmatic attitude touches on something that one Indiana expert says is good for the bottom line and the planet. Jonathan Spodek is the director of the graduate program and historical preservation at Ball State University.
According to his research, it's often more financially viable to retrofit an existing building as opposed to rebuild.
Wilcox decided to go the former route. It was really a matter of talking to the right people at the right time, he says.
January 2017 was a turning point for him. He had lunch with the Mayor of Huntington and shared his vision for the move. The Mayor offered to show him a few buildings around that time that might meet his specifications. Among them was a facility in serious disrepair. Despite the condition, Wilcox had a vision.
"I said to the Mayor, "that is absolutely the building I want," he says.
Wilcox introduced himself to the then owner and began discussions. By November, he had purchased the building and began the extensive renovation, which included a new roof, windows, HVAC system, wiring, and more. He was able to scrub the original glazed red brick to its full original glory—a touch that makes the interior especially eye-catching.
The "piece de resistance," as he calls it, was finding a period-appropriate awning similar to one used by the dairy in its heyday. Wilcox was able to serve as the general contractor and source most of the labor from local subcontractors.
Now that the work is complete, he says he has ample room for warehousing and shipping, as well as room for future growth.
Matt Wilcox is excited about the potential of helping a local business get off the ground.
The incubator, he says, is sort of a "byproduct" of this renovation.
"With that, we are able to have some extra space in terms of offices," he explains.
The idea is that if a local business or two needs a place to "roast," he would be able to accommodate them with some office space. Wilcox says he needs to figure out specifics regarding lease arrangements, but he's open to discussion.
In the meantime, he's happy about the start of a recent infrastructure project, in particular, because the timing worked out nicely. Residents are taking more pride in the Huntington community, and in general, they're interested in what he's done with the place.
"This has put us in the spotlight more than we expected," he says.


A FENLAND councillor has given her backing to a £7million scheme to prepare Wisbech's famous North Brink for the predicted rise in sea levels.
Councillor Ann Carlisle lives in North Brink and says the improvements planned by the Environment Agency are "essential work".
But she also hopes public opinion will be listened to by replacing cobble stones, which run alongside the wall in North Brink, with a footpath.
Cllr Carlisle said: "There will be inconveniences and we will have to accept that, but it is necessary from the view of our safety.
"The cobbles are very difficult to keep clean and they need a lot of work doing to them. I hope the Environment Agency has taken on suggestions from the various people that went to exhibitions."
The Environment Agency has been looking at improving the flood defences along the River Nene for the last year to combat the threat of global warming.
Phil Clow, project manager for the Wisbech Flood Defence Scheme at the Environment Agency, said: "Existing parts of the wall are not up to standard and we are hoping to replace them. In other places we are hoping to add coping stones to the top of the wall.
"It will look a lot better for the town and it will rise the wall ever so slightly in line with the sea level rise in the wake of global warming. The tides will rise in the area so we will need to plan for that."
They are hoping to gain funding and approval through an internal process, which should be completed in the next few months. Plans will then be submitted to Fenland District Council.
The existing flood defence walls alongside the river were built after the floods of 1978.

Q: Capture HTTP/S calls from HTML/JavaScript programmatically Taking some basic HTML and JavaScript e.g.
<img src="http://example.com?a=1" />
<script type="text/javascript"
   src="http://example.net/script.js"
</script>

There are definitely 2 HTTP requests made, one for an img (example.com?a=1) and another for some JavaScript (example.net/script.js).
However, example.net/script.js may return some JavaScript which makes another request:
document.write("<script src='http://example.org/script.js'></script>")

This would result in a third http request to http://example.org/script.js.
A rather naive attempt to do this in Python looked like:

*

*Extract all URLs in original HTML/JavaScript.

*For each URL, open using urllib2.urlopen(url)

*Check response for further URLs and open using urllib2.urlopen(url)

Of course, this doesn't allow for JavaScript which, only once rendered, constructs a valid URL and makes the HTTP request.
I then considered some kind of webkit engine to first render the response of each HTTP request, pull out the URLs and open using urllib2.urlopen(url).
This seemed non-trivial and complex. Is there an easier way?


The kid from the local high school stole the show -- and LeBron James could only watch.
Tiny Earl Boykins, who grew up in Cleveland, scored all 18 of his points in the second half as the Denver Nuggets ruined James' hyped home debut Wednesday night, 93-89, over the winless Cavaliers.
Oh, and the James versus Carmelo Anthony rivalry? Let's just say it needs some work.
"I'm glad it's over," said Anthony, who led Syracuse to an NCAA title as a freshman and will next meet James on Dec. 3 in Denver. "I ain't seen this much media since the national championship game."
Anthony outscored James, 14-7, in the eagerly awaited matchup between the NBA's two star rookies. But neither was able to get into the flow and disappointed a sellout crowd of 20,562, which kept waiting for one of them to take over.
Instead, it was the 5-foot-5 Boykins who made all the big shots and plays. Boykins, who has twice played for the Cavaliers, scored 10 points in the third quarter to help the Nuggets take control.
James and the Cavaliers are still looking for win No. 1, and the top overall draft pick is now 0-4 as a pro and 0-3 in his career against his close friend Anthony. The two faced each other twice while in high school.
"I don't want to say I'm disappointed," James said. "We need to get a win -- simple as that."
James had the better stat sheet: 11 rebounds and seven assists to Anthony's six and two.
But James couldn't get his game going and went scoreless in the second half, and finished only three for 11 from the field.
"I knew there was going to be some bumps and bruises," James said. "Being the No. 1 pick, I went to the sorriest team from the year before. By December and January, we'll be a good team."
Anthony was six for 17.
"I won," Anthony said. "So I'm happy with my performance."
More than 300 credentials were issued to see the first pro matchup between James and Anthony, the two most publicized rookies to enter the league at the same time since Larry Bird and Magic Johnson in 1979.
Before the game, the Goodyear blimp -- from James' hometown of Akron -- hovered overhead as the normally quiet streets outside Gund Arena buzzed with traffic, fans and scalpers seeking $300 for a lower level seat to James' home opener.


Kuala Lumpur (5 May 2017) — Standard Chartered and Hotels.com® are excited to launch a three-year global strategic alliance that offers Standard Chartered credit cardholders in five countries up to 12% off on hotel bookings around the world on Hotels.com.
The alliance will cover Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and the UAE. Hotels.com offers hundreds of thousands of properties in more than 200 countries.
Travel for leisure and business continues to grow worldwide. The outlook for 2017 is very positive, with world outbound travel predicted to grow by between 4% and 5%, according to ITB.

The UK immigration rules will change from 19th November
UK immigration and visas had previously announced the fresh changes to the rules of immigration on 29th October 2015. Many of the changes would affect the applications lodged on or after the 19th November 2015, with the new provisions being implemented all over and nearly every immigration path of the UK.
The details of the key changes for the categories of the UK immigration are mentioned below:
New Provisions about the non EEA children, which would enable the UK immigration to stop entry into the nation, if they suspect that because of sponsor or partner of sponsor, entry of the child to the UK would put the safety of the child at risk.
A need for those who apply for staying in the UK for indefinite period to show the evidence of their skills related to English Language by giving an English Language Test at the government approved test centre. Instead, you should demonstrate the level of English with the English language qualification from the list of Home Office Secure English Language Test.
As announced in the past, minimum salary of 35,000 pounds with exception of occupations on the list of shortage occupation would be needed to be eligible for the UK indefinite leave to remain.
Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa and Tier 1 Exceptional Talent Visa
Changes to the Tier 1 Exceptional Talent visa scheme that is claimed would ease shortage of skills in the UK technology sector. Changing the endorsement condition, used by the Tech City UK, would hopefully lead to hike in the applicant numbers with the potential to add value to UK's digital economy qualifying for this UK visa path.

Georgia Senate runoffs: Live coverage and results
Yahoo News Staff
January 6, 2021, 8:01 a.m.
The votes are still being counted in Georgia, where Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler are facing Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock in Senate runoff elections that will determine political control of the chamber and the course of President-elect Joe Biden's first years in office. Yahoo News is providing complete live coverage with updates and analysis from our reporters on the ground in Georgia, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere.
Live vote count and up-to-the-minute results >>>
Dylan Stableford
How the chaos unfolded
• Hundreds of President Trump's supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol as Congress was convening a joint session to count the certified Electoral College votes affirming Joe Biden's election victory.
• Some breached hallways, offices and even the Senate chamber, forcing evacuations. Others broke windows to get inside.
• Capitol police were seen with guns drawn in an armed standoff near the door to the House floor. Lawmakers were instructed to put on protective gas masks because police had deployed chemical irritants in Statuary Hall.
• A woman who was shot by police later died. She was identified by local news reports as Ashli Babbit, an Air Force veteran and Trump supporter from San Diego.
• Three others who suffered medical emergencies also died, officials said.
• Mayor Muriel Bowser ordered a 6 p.m. ET citywide curfew, and the D.C. National Guard was activated.
• The joint session resumed on Wednesday night after the Capitol was cleared, and Congress formally certified Biden's win in the wee hours of Thursday morning.
• Trump, who had spoken at a rally urging demonstrators to surround the Capitol, reportedly watched the mayhem on TV from the White House dining room.
• Vice President Mike Pence, who was presiding over the vote count, called on those who illegally entered the Capitol Building to leave immediately.
• President-elect Biden called on Trump to "step up" and condemn his supporters who breached the Capitol.
• Trump released a video telling demonstrators to "go home," but repeated his false claims that the election was "stolen from us."
• The video was subsequently blocked by Facebook and Twitter, with both platforms temporarily suspending him.
• Meanwhile, the Associated Press projected that Jon Ossoff will win his runoff in Georgia, beating incumbent GOP Sen. David Perdue and giving Democrats control of the U.S. Senate.
Trump statement: 'There will be an orderly transition'
In a statement released by the White House shortly after Joe Biden was certified by Congress as the winner of the 2020 presidential election, Trump said: "Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20th. I have always said we would continue our fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted. While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it's only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again!"

Congress votes to certify Biden's win
After an extraordinary act of violence from a riotous mob forced U.S. legislators to evacuate the Capitol Building during the counting of the Electoral College votes in the presidential election, Congress voted to certify the results showing President-elect Joe Biden defeated President Trump.
While a group of Republican lawmakers challenged the results in Arizona and Pennsylvania, those objections did not withstand a vote in either the House of Representative or the Senate.
In the wake of the attack on the Capitol, fewer Republicans followed through with promises to contest the certification, yet enough did to drag debate on into the early morning hours of Thursday.
At 3:32 a.m. ET, Congress had certified enough electoral votes to surpass the 270 threshold that guaranteed Biden would become the 46th president, effectively ending a futile bid by Trump and his supporters to overturn the results of November's election.
House rejects challenge to Pennsylvania's electoral count
The House joined the Senate in voting to reject the motion to object to the state of Pennsylvania's electoral votes.
As was the case with the injection to Arizona, a majority of House Republicans (138) voted in favor of objecting to Pennsylvania's vote count.
Congress has now reconvened a joint session — which began at 1 p.m. ET Wednesday — to continue its certification of Joe Biden's victory.
It's 3:15 a.m. ET.

House shouting match almost leads to 'fist fight'
Tensions ran high in the House Chamber overnight as the House debated the objection raised over Pennsylvania's presidential election results.
"A woman died out there tonight, and you're making these objections," Rep. Connor Lamb, D-Pa., said.
House Republicans objected to Lamb's statement. A shouting match ensued and, according to one Capitol Hill reporter, a fist fight almost broke out between Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., and Colin Allred, D-Texas.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called on the sergeant-at-arms to restore order and clear the chamber.

Capitol riot was false-flag operation by leftists, Trump backers claim, with no basis
Yahoo News Senior Reporter Caitlin Dickson reports:
As an angry mob stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, vandalizing offices, occupying the House and Senate chambers and sending legislators and staffers running for cover, several of President Trump's key allies knew just where to cast the blame: on the loose-knit movement of left-wing agitators known as "antifa," a favorite bogeyman of Trump and the right wing for the last several years.
They were undeterred by video showing rioters in MAGA hats, carrying Trump 2020 flags, descending on the Capitol from a rally near the White House where Trump himself had exhorted them to disrupt the counting of Electoral College votes submitted by the states, the final step in certifying President-elect Joe Biden's victory. To them, that just showed that the insurrection was actually a leftist false-flag operation meant to embarrass the president's peaceful supporters.
One of the first to push this narrative was Rep. Mo Brooks, an Alabama Republican and part of a small group of Trump loyalists who'd pledged to challenge the Electoral College results from several states during Wednesday's joint session of Congress in an ill-fated final attempt to undo Trump's defeat. "Rumor: ANTIFA fascists in backwards MAGA hats," Brooks tweeted from the locked-down Capitol where he was taking cover from the mob. "Time will tell what truth is."
Objection raised by Republicans over Pennsylvania's presidential election results
The objection, which was raised shortly after midnight local time, was signed by Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri and Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania.
Both chambers will now debate the objection to President-elect Joe Biden's win in the Keystone State for up to two hours and then vote on it.
An earlier objection to the certification of Arizona's results failed.
Chhattisgarh announces formation of Telghani Board to boost employment in rural areas
A chronological history of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline project
Raipur (Chhattisgarh) [India], January 18 (ANI): Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel on Sunday announced that the Telghani Board will be formed in the state to provide employment opportunities to the people of rural areas.
A timeline of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline project: July 2008: TC Energy Corp. (TSX: TRP) — then called TransCanada Corp. — and ConocoPhillips, joint owners of the Keystone Pipeline, propose a major extension to the network. The expansion, dubbed Keystone XL, would carry hundreds of thousands of barrels of oilsands bitumen from Alberta to Texas. 2009: As the U.S. State Department wades through comments based on an environmental assessment of the project, TransCanada starts visiting landowners potentially affected by the pipeline. Opposition emerges in Nebraska. June 2009: TransCanada announces it will buy ConocoPhillips's stake in Keystone. March 2010: The National Energy Board approves TransCanada's application for Keystone XL, though the OK comes with 22 conditions regarding safety, environmental protection and landowner rights. April 2010: The U.S. State Department releases a draft environmental impact statement saying Keystone XL would have a limited effect on the environment. June-July 2010: Opposition to Keystone XL begins mounting in the United States. Legislators write to then-secretary of state Hillary Clinton calling for greater environmental oversight; scientists begin speaking out against the project; and the Environmental Protection Agency questions the need for the pipeline extension. July 2010: The State Department extends its review of Keystone, saying federal agencies need more time to weigh in before a final environmental impact assessment can be released. March 2011: The State Department announces a further delay in its environmental assessment. Aug. 26, 2011: The State Department releases its final environmental assessment, which reiterates that the pipeline would have a limited environmental impact. August-September 2011: Protesters stage a two-week campaign of civil disobedience at the White House to speak out against Keystone XL. Police arrest approximately 1,000 people, including actors Margot Kidder and Daryl Hannah as well as Canadian activist Naomi Klein. Sept. 26, 2011: At a demonstration on Parliament Hill, police arrest 117 of 400 protesters. Nov. 10, 2011: The State Department says TransCanada must reroute Keystone XL to avoid an ecologically sensitive region of Nebraska. Nov. 14, 2011: TransCanada agrees to reroute the line. December 2011: U.S. legislators pass a bill with a provision saying President Barack Obama must make a decision on the pipeline's future in the next 60 days. Jan. 18, 2012: Obama rejects Keystone, saying the timeline imposed by the December bill did not leave enough time to review the new route. Obama said TransCanada was free to submit another application. Feb. 27, 2012: TransCanada says it will build the southern leg of Keystone XL, from Cushing, Okla., to the Gulf Coast, as a separate project with a price tag of $2.3 billion. This is not subject to presidential permission, since it did not cross an international border. April 18, 2012: TransCanada submits a new route to officials in Nebraska for approval. May 4, 2012: TransCanada files a new application with the State Department for the northern part of Keystone XL. Jan. 22, 2013: Nebraska Gov. Dave Heineman approves TransCanada's proposed new route for Keystone XL, sending the project back to the State Department for review. January 2013: Pipeline opponents file a lawsuit against the Nebraska government claiming the state law used to review the new route is unconstitutional. Jan. 31, 2014: The State Department says in a report that Keystone XL would produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions than transporting oil to the Gulf of Mexico by rail. Feb. 19, 2014: A Nebraska judge rules that the law that allowed the governor to approve Keystone XL over the objections of landowners was unconstitutional. Nebraska said it would appeal. April 18, 2014: The State Department suspends the regulatory process indefinitely, citing uncertainty about the court case in Nebraska. Nov. 4, 2014: TransCanada says the costs of Keystone XL have grown to US$8 billion from US$5.4 billion. November-December 2014: Midterm elections turn control of the U.S. Congress over to Republicans, who say they'll make acceptance of Keystone XL a top priority. But Obama adopts an increasingly negative tone. Jan. 9, 2015: At the Nebraska Supreme Court, by the narrowest of margins, a panel of seven judges strikes down the lower-court decision. Jan. 29, 2015: The U.S. Senate approves a bill to build Keystone XL, but the White House says Obama would veto it. Feb. 24, 2015: Obama vetoes the bill. June 30, 2015: TransCanada writes to then-secretary of state John Kerry and other U.S. officials saying the State Department should include recent climate change policy announcements by the Alberta and federal governments in its review of Keystone XL. Nov. 2, 2015: TransCanada asks the U.S. government to temporarily suspend its application. Nov. 4, 2015: The U.S. government rejects that request. Nov. 6, 2015: The Obama administration rejects TransCanada's application to build the Keystone XL pipeline. TransCanada CEO Russ Girling says he is disappointed, but continues to believe the project is in the best interests of both Canada and the U.S. Jan. 6, 2016: TransCanada files notice to launch a claim under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement, alleging the U.S. government breached its legal commitments under NAFTA. The company also files a lawsuit in U.S. Federal Court in Texas arguing that Obama exceeded his powers by denying construction of the project. May 26, 2016: Republican presidential contender Donald Trump says he would approve Keystone XL if elected, a pledge he repeats several times during the campaign. Nov. 8, 2016: Trump is elected president. Jan. 24, 2017: Trump signs an executive order that he says approves Keystone XL, but suggests the United States intends to renegotiate the terms of the project. He also signs an order requiring American pipelines to be built with U.S. steel. Nov. 9, 2018: A U.S. federal judge blocks the pipeline's construction to allow more time to study the potential environmental impact. March 29, 2019: Trump issues a new presidential permit in an effort to speed up development of the pipeline May 3, 2019: TransCanada changes its name to TC Energy. March 31, 2020: Alberta agrees to invest $1.5 billion in Keystone XL, followed by a $6 billion loan guarantee in 2021. April 7, 2020: Construction begins, despite calls from Indigenous groups and environmentalists to pause their efforts. May 18, 2020: Joe Biden, then the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, vows to scrap Keystone XL if elected, but doesn't set out a timeline for doing so. Nov. 3, 2020: Biden is elected president. Jan. 17, 2021: Transition documents show Biden plans to cancel Keystone XL on the first day of his presidency. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Jan. 17, 2021. The Canadian Press

Caledonia Spirits is a craft distillery in Montpelier, Vermont. The distillery is known for its Barr Hill-brand spirits, including gin, vodka, and an Old Tom gin called Tom Cat. The company's flagship product is its Barr Hill Gin, which is the top-selling Vermont-made spirit and the most awarded gin made in the US.

History
The distillery was originally located in Hardwick in Vermont's Caledonia County (in the Northeast Kingdom). It was founded by Todd Hardie, a lifelong beekeeper who wanted to popularize honey-based beverages and highlight the important and threatened role of bees in the environment. Ryan Christiansen serves as the company's president and head distiller. The two met in 2011, while Hardie was using raw honey in his small production winery at the time. In the 2010s, the company moved to Montpelier, opening a 27,000-square-foot distillery. In 2019, the company expanded its presence there, opening a cocktail bar and retail store.

Operations
The distillery distributes in 32 U.S. states, as well as Montreal, and other foreign cities with cocktail cultures. Product volume tripled from 2015 to 2019 and continues to grow rapidly, leading to about 60,000 4.5L cases shipped per year.

Each year since 2017, Caledonia Spirits has hosted a Bee's Knees Week, an event to raise funds to plant pollinator habitats across the U.S. The event, hosted in late September each year, is an effort to combat pollinator decline. The 2021 fundraiser had a goal of planting  of bee habitats.

Products
The company's Barr Hill Gin uses raw honey sourced from Vermont. The raw honey maintains aromatics from the bees' foraging practices, with an estimated 100 to 115 different pollen and plant particles found in their raw honey.

The company's vodka is distilled from only raw honey sourced from a 250-mile radius around the Barr Hill distillery. The process requires  of honey per 750 mL bottle. The honey is not heated prior to fermentation, preserving natural aromatics. The vodka is also distilled only one to two times, keeping flavors that could otherwise be removed through subsequent distillations.

Reception
Caledonia Spirits' gin is well-received. In a Forbes review of top gins in 2019, Barr Hill was listed first, recommended for its botanical notes and for use in a white Negroni.

Secret Teacher: Social media is hurting pupils – we need more support
I've seen the harm online platforms can do to children, but the government is slow to respond. Its latest plans don't go far enough

The Secret Teacher
Sat 4 Mar 2017 02.30 EST
Last modified on Sat 4 Mar 2017 03.36 EST
This week, the government announced plans to target "sexting and cyberbullying" as part of an initiative to make the internet safer for young people. It is to meet with technology companies, charities, academies and mental health professionals to develop a strategy. All this sounds wonderful, but the speed of reaction to what has been a very real situation for years has been painfully slow.
My previous efforts in trying to make a difference on this issue have not resulted in any meaningful government response, and I fear that more discussion will lead to a slow solution, or one with no impact. I also notice that a key stakeholder has been missed from the government's list – the social media giants themselves.
What are your concerns about children using social media?
In my experience, children can have great difficulty navigating these platforms and, as any teacher will tell you, students don't always have the resilience to cope with exposure to negative comments. The issue is even worse for primary school pupils, and in this lies a specific problem.
The vast majority of social media platforms set their age limit at 13; you can check it in their terms and conditions, if you can find them. But from what I can tell they make absolutely no effort to police this restriction.
I've worked at a variety of schools and bullying has existed, in one form or another, at all of them. However, the worst incidents that I've had to deal with all happened when the children concerned were sitting in their own homes.
In the first case, two pupils sent nasty messages to each other on a popular social media platform, a string of abuse that was both homophobic and anti-Semitic. In the second, a boy had threatened a girl with graphic sexual violence because she'd spurned his advances. I was unfortunate enough to read the messages; I won't commit them to paper, but I felt sick. The children concerned were 11 and 12.
Schools work incredibly hard to educate and protect the young people in their care, and parents are doing their best. Yet it's not always easy. When the problem involves the chat function of a social media platform, the danger is clear and can be blocked by a filter or eagle-eyed adult. But nearly all online games now have a chat function hidden away in their system. You think they're building a castle, but at the same time they're communicating with anon66.
Once, a nefarious individual contacted a pupil of mine and groomed them, plain as day, in an open chat. He offered sex. Luckily a concerned parent of another child informed the school. The student's parents were understanding, the child ashamed, sorry, and then educated. We contacted the company running the service – could the groomer's account be suspended? No reply.
I got in touch with multiple social media companies, and the Department for Education, about the wider problem. At one point, I tweeted Facebook on a daily basis for a sustained period of time, asking if it had any solution to the problem of underage children being exposed to the dangers of the platform. I never got a response.
The UK government was marginally better: it eventually said that plenty was being done to tackle the issue of primary children and social media, but failed to give any specifics and ignored my request for support in approaching the social media giants.
On Safer Internet Day 2016, CBBC Newsround reported that more than 75% of children aged 10 to 12 had social media accounts, so I wrote back to the minister to point out that they could have done something about the issue months earlier. I never got a reply.
Secret Teacher: giving students wifi has made lessons chaotic
My school – like many – has recently rewritten its safeguarding policies and (under Keeping Children Safe in Education and other regulations) sexting, banter and peer-on-peer abuse all have to be included, and rightly so. The Department for Education must force schools to comply on those issues that it considers to be important, requiring both Ofsted and the Independent Schools Inspectorate to dish out regulatory failings if necessary. I only wish that it would also force Facebook et al to comply to similar requirements.
Along with most schools, we hold online safety sessions for parents and send out updates in our newsletter. But whatever children, parents and teachers do to tackle the serious dangers social media poses to those too young to navigate its murky waters, it will never be enough without the involvement of the social media companies themselves.
So back to the government initiative, led by culture secretary Karen Bradley. Discussion is all well and good, and the promise of a green paper in the summer is a positive step. But in a sector where the pace of change is lightning fast, and some of the most popular apps (for example, Yellow) did not exist until recently, I would once again urge the government to take more rapid action.
Ask the opinions of a broad range of schools and actually find out what the effect of this issue is. Meet with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and others, force them to age verify, and pass legislation that punishes those companies that play hard and fast with the safety of our children. The government says it will "identify risks", but the risks have been identified and weaknesses are being exploited. Maybe someone should actually do something that will make a difference … anyone?

World Baseball Softball Confederation – Softball Division Election Result
14 October 2017 Gilles LeBlanc
Gaborone, Botswana - Dale McMann (Surrey, B.C.) has been defeated in his bid for a second four-year term as Chairman of the World Baseball Softball Confederation – Softball Division (WBSC-SD). The new Chairman is Tommy Velazquez (Puerto Rico).
McMann had previously been elected President of the International Softball Federation in 2013. The position subsequently became Chairman of the Softball Division of the World Baseball Softball Confederation. Prior to that, he served as a member of the Board of the International Softball Federation since 1993 and was the President of Softball Canada from 1990 to 2001.
"Dale is an extremely hard working individual who devoted countless hours every year developing softball worldwide" stated current Softball Canada President Kevin Quinn. "Dale played a vital role in getting women's softball back on the Olympic program in 2020. He dedicated the last 24 years of his life to growing and supporting softball in all regions of the world. His expertise will be missed in the softball community."

Over the next few posts I'm going to share an expanded view of that session. I'll include test data, all my code samples, and a deeper look at the execution plans for the different code samples. As I build these posts, this page will become an index page. I'll also include a recording of the session!
As always, if you have any questions about the content, please let me know!

Considered to be the largest project of its type in Ontario with 336 units. LEVELROCK® 2500 was poured at 1" thick directly onto the LEVELROCK® Sound Mat to achieve desired fire and sound ratings.
The LEVELROCK® 2500 was durable enough to be installed before the drywall. Tradespeople could walk on the area within 2-3 hours of application, and within 24 hours they were working in these areas, speeding up construction time at Mattamy Homes' High Park Condo Complex.


There have been atleast a few complaints about the bat's long term performance. We don't think it too concerning, but the bat isn't getting the rave some other more proven models are.
As of March 2019 the ADV (and every Jump to the full review.
We aren't the only ones to have information about the Project 3 ADV. Other places, in particular those who sell bats, usually have a boiler plate write up on the specs of a bat. Many of those we reference to make sure we are seeing what we should be. Here are some more references for the 2019 Easton Project 3 ADV review.
As of March 2019 the ADV (and every Easton BBCOR bat) came off of minimum pricing. It is the earliest we have seen any premier bats come down.
As far as we can tell, one of two things. First, the bat's sales have been flat or lackluster and Easton is looking to drive some inventory before other flagship bats drop their price. Second, it's possible Easton is looking to launch a few things earlier this year to get the ball rolling and a jump on the 2020 line.
In some sense it's worth thinking of the ADV as a newer version of the Ghost X from 2019. It is a two piece composite with a big barrel, light swing and really great feel on contact. Granted, it only comes in BBCOR at the moment. But improvements like the power boost knob make it worthy of a new model and name.
We recommend the bat for those who don't have much concern about budget, love Easton and want to be early adopters of the latest and greatest. The bat performs well and gets great reviews from all our hitters.
Note, too, the Project 3 ADV is slated to release ONLY in BBCOR. So, those looking for 2019 Easton USA Bats or big barrel bats need look elsewhere.
Power Knob: The new knob uses a softer edge that allows for greater wrist movement.
The connective piece (formerly known and CXN) adds foam material inside the bat. This helps dampen sting and improve feel.
A new barrel layer design Easton is referring to as Launch Comp.
A lighter end cap now called the Speed Cap.
Although the Easton Ghost/MAKO rated out as one of our favorite BBCOR bats, the changes to the new Project 3 ADV are legit. We are not able to determine if the price difference is worth it on your budget. Our general recommendation is that last year's models bats are great buys when they price out well (August through October). But, in terms of a side by side (assuming price is equal) we'd buy the Project 3 ADV.
In the big barreled and light swinging two piece composite space there are a few real high end options. All bats, mind you, in this category are the most expensive. Others to consider are Rawlings Quatro Pro, DeMarini's CF Zen and Slugger's new Meta 9. Each of these bats have their own story and, in their own right, each are good. We suggest you read through the reviews, watch some vidoes and get a feel for what type of bat you'll like more. Then, when in doubt, flip a coin.
What is a Power Boost Knob?
Easton's new Project 3 lab has produced a soft outer shell on the knob of the bat. The idea is that a softer knob gives you somthing to hold but also something to help swing through. These knobs do feel great compared to other stiffer knobs. And, we are hopeful, Easton adds these to other bats in the future.
Easton won the Lizard Skin contract. If you want a pre-installed Lizard skin on the stock bat than the Project ADV 3 will be your choice.
They changed the composite in the barrel. The idea is a longer barrel with a more consistent sweet spot. Granted, this has been the claim of every composite bat company since the dawn of time. But, nonetheless, they are claiming an improvement.
The Handle is stiffer than previous version. This means less flex at contact and, in theory at least, more power to the ball.
They upgraded the connective piece and added some inner foam to help with sting dampening.
The new knob is legit. It's a rubber outer shell that makes it feel better to swing. And it does feel smoother.
They also upgraded the end cap.
Easton's Project ADV 3 is only a BBCOR bat. It comes in sizes as short as a 30 up to a 34-inch.
