New Prime Minister Boris Johnson has Boston's Pilgrim Hospital to promote a cash injection for the NHS.
The United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust is one of 20 health organisations set to receive a share of £850 million in new funding to improve services.
The trust is receiving £21.3 million to develop urgent and emergency care zones in Pilgrim Hospital's A&E, to improve patient flow.
He says the funding will help pay for more beds, new cutting-edge equipment and additional wards will be delivered at hospitals across the country.
Lincolnshire Live reporter Paul Whitelam went along to Pilgrim Hospital to speak to Mr Johnson during his visit.

Dr Preston Mitchell said:
It's clear that our NHS needs Investment.
It needs a lot of money after years of under provision.
The investment should be welcomed and I for one certainly welcome it.
Is the investment part of a tactic ahead of a general election?
The Echo asked whether the investment is part of a tactic to use in a future general election.
Mr Johnson laughed and gesticulated in the direction of our reporter.
No was the answer.
He claimed that the UK had elections in 2015 and 2017 and a referendum 2016.
The Prime Minister said it was time to deliver on what the public voted for.
Why Boston Pilgrim Hospital?
The Echo asked Boris Johnson why he chose to launch the investment in Boston.
The PM said that the town was a beautiful place and it reminded him of his local hospital in his own constituency.
Mr Johnson spoke about improving ambulance response times and patient waiting time in A&E.
Prime Minister on good form
Reporter Paul Whitelam said that the Prime Minister was good fun and full of energy on his visit to the hospital.

The Prime Minister is currently on tour of the hospital.
Reporters from across the county are waiting his arrival in a room in the hospital.
The announcement aims to deliver on the Prime Minister's pledge when entering Downing Street to urgently upgrade 20 hospitals, and ensure money invested in the NHS is reaching the frontline as soon as possible.
The Prime minister added:
"The NHS is always there for us – free at the point of use for everyone in the country.
With our doctors and nurses working tirelessly day in day out, this treasured institution truly showcases the very best of Britain.
That's why I made it my immediate task to make sure frontline services have the funding they need, to make a real difference to the lives of NHS staff, and above all, of patients.
Today I'm delivering on this promise with a £1.8 billion cash injection – meaning more beds, new wards, and extra life-saving equipment to ensure patients continue to receive world-class care.
It's time to face up to this challenge and make sure the NHS receives the funds it needs, to continue being the best healthcare service in the world."
The Prime Minister spoke ahead of his visit
"I'm pleased to visit Pilgrim Hospital in Boston to see first-hand the improvements that will be made following today's announcement.
"The £21.3 million will be spent on upgrading the hospital's A&E, so that more patients are seen quicker and get the treatment they need.
"Doctors and nurses in our NHS perform miracles every day, and today's announcement is about supporting frontline services and our clinicians so they can continue to deliver the best care possible for patients in Lincolnshire and across the country."

Each month the Manchester Student Society of Architecture (MSSA) host a night of guest lectures on a variety of themes relating the the field of Architecture and beyond. This years November theme was modelmaking and brought together three speakers to present their varied perspectives and experiences on the subject.
Despite the varied backgrounds of the speakers there were some strong common threads in the presentations that reinforced the strong pro-making feeling throughout. At all levels modelmaking was presented as an essential tactile tool for testing, presenting and soul searching/enriching when trying to better understand built forms, both large and small.
Thank you to MSSA for their work putting the event together and to the speakers who gave their time generously. Find out more about the MSSA here. Keep up to date with the Before You're 30 lecture series on their facebook page here.

Paintings, sculptures and photographs of works by the pioneer of post-war art in Greece, Cosmas Xenakis, are all being presented as part of the Cosmas Xenakis 1925-1984 exhibition being held at the Benaki Museum. It will also feature audio-visual clips of his famous Polytechna performances, accompanied by material on his life and times, and pieces from his personal collections.
This phenomenal artist has engaged in painting, sculpting, architecture and urban planning, and is also the creator of what he calls Polytechna, a unique type of performance art combining painting, sculpture, theatre and dance.
Xenakis is an aficionado of folk creativity and a collector of utilitarian objects, ceramics and tools. He is a complex and interesting character who has – among other things – made a major contribution to the regeneration of Greek art.
The exhibition has been designed and curated by George Hadjimichalis in honour of this pioneering artist, and is the first real attempt at providing a comprehensive presentation of his multifaceted oeuvre.

New Statesman, Chris Deerline, 19th November 2017
"Richard Leonard (new Scots Leader TF)… ran on a Corbynite prospectus that comfortably saw off his centre-left challenger Anas Sarwar… Its still not clear where Scottish Labour stands on the EU or or the Union…. Perhaps Corbyn's relative success in June's General Election made this inevitable… Little wonder his campaign was supported by Momentum and its Scottish sister the Campaign for Socialism…. Leonard was backed by 51.8% of the 17,664 individual members who voted in the contest, compared to 48.2% who supported Sarwar. Among the unions – the affiliated supporters section – Leonard secured 77.3% of the 4,242 votes cast, while Sarwar got 22.7%. Sarwar edged the 'registered supporters' section with 51.9%, while Leonard got 48.1%!
Labour List 1st February 2018
"Richard Leonard suffered a disappointment today when new polling showed Scottish Labour slipping back in the race against the SNP. A Survation survey showed Labour 12 points behind when people in Scottish constituencies were asked about their Westminster voting intention. The results showed Labour dipping 2 points to 27% and Nicola Sturgeon's party rising by the same margin…. Leonard was widely seen as having the backing of Jeremy Corbyn's office…..
…."If the Survation poll is correct it would mean the SNP winning back 9 of the 21 seats they lost in last year's general election… The Tories were trailing in third place (24%) and the Lib Dems showed no sign of a recovery (7%)."

Growing up in the cultural desert that was 1960s and 70s Northern Ireland, radio was a break from the ongoing violence and destruction around me. Listening to the chart shows on the BBC was good but hearing alternative music on Radio Caroline and Radio Luxenbourg was much more inspiring. I've always loved music, all genres (that aren't commercial), I've made mixtapes since the early 70s and have also worked with bands and hosted radio shows.
Since the Spring of 2018 I've been producing and hosting the show Turtle Island Radio broadcast by the London arts radio station ResonanceFM on FM digital and live streamed.
Below are the shows that have been broadcast to date.

The Problem is that for IDs 2 and 4 there are multiple values of C in column ID2. As it seems JMP is always using the last value in the splitted data table.
Is there any automatic way to do it so that I end up with a table like the following?
Here there are two rows for IDs 2 and 4 representing the different values of C in the original data.
I think you need an auxiliary column, Sebastian.
Thanks for the support Ian!
That was more or less what I was doing. The problem in the real world is of course that the data set has ~3k rows and I could not imagine a formula to create the repeat-column automatically rather than manually.
Do you know a solution for that as well? I would like to avoid writing a script that nests multiple for-loops to generate the "repeat"-column. That sounds so inefficient.
Oops! Sorry, yes Sebastian. Maybe something like?
for each row (If( // do not use a formula in the column since it is dependent on sorting that may change later.
is there a way for using it in this context? with two index columns and one of them is alphabetic?
That solution will only work with numeric columns. If we were to replace :ID2 with :ID2Num where A's = 1, B's =2 ect. you could simply use an & statement, thus :Sum( :ID[Index( 1, Row() )] == :ID & :ID2Num[Index( 1, Row() )] == :ID2Num ) for the formula.
There's a lot going on here, and I don't have the energy to explain it now. But let me know if you have questions; really, there's a more viable simpler solution above.
and you are write, keeping things simple is probably the best way to go.

The Spectator, Band 1
herausgegeben von Alexander Chalmers
cases, what the one sketched the other could fill up : what the one began the other with little difficulty could continue. We have an early example in STEELE's outline of Sir ROGER DE COVERLEY, and the use Addison made of it: in Addison's account of his taciturnity, and STEELE'S happy illustration of it in No. 4. No. 64, by STEELE, must, I think, be allowed the most exact imitation of Addison's style and humour ever attempted, yet it carries every proof, that such a case can admit, of having been written with ease. Another instance of their mutual exchange of subjects appears in the proposal for an infirmary to cure ill-humour, by STEELE, in No. 424, and 429, which was adopted by Addison in No. 440. Other examples may be traced in these volumes* ; and a few other contributors, as well as many
of the unknown correspondentst, aimed at a kind of uniformity, in which they were not unsuccessful, presenting occasionally some of those delicate strokes of humour, which in Addison were habitual and distinctive. He every where discovers the ingenium par materia, every where preserves the equability of his mind, the kindness of his disposition, and the pleasure he took jucunda et idonea dicere vita. No. 69 is an instructive example of the benevolent views he delighted to take of mankind and of Proyidence. There is a perpetual smile on his countenance; he rarely exhibits the sneer of the satirist, and perhaps never the frown of the rigid moralist.
* No. 14 is pointed out by the annotators on the SPECTATOR, as "meriting the attention of such as pretend to distinguish with wonderful facility between ADDISON's and STEELE's papers.
+ See No. 599, 608, 612, 615, and 619, the authors of which are unknown.
A higher praise than what belongs to human wit yet remains, and cannot be bestowed in language more appropriate than that of Johnson.
It is justly observed by TICKELL, that ADDISON employed wit on the side of virtue and religion. He not only made the proper use of wit himself, but taught it to others, and from his time it has been generally subservient to the cause of reason and of truth. He has dissipated the prejudice that had long connected gaiety with vice, and easiness of manners with laxity of principles. He has restored virtue to its dignity, and taught innocence not to be ashamed. This is an elevation of literary character above all Greek, above all Roman fame. No greater felicity can genius at tain, than that of having purified intellectual pleasure, separated mirth from indecency, and wit from licentiousness ; of having taught a succession of writers to bring elegance and gaiety to the aid of goodness; and, if I may use expressions yet more awful, of having turned many to righteousness."—"As a teacher of wisdom, he may be confidently followed. His religion has nothing in it enthusiastic or superstitions ; he appears neither weakly credulous nor wantonly sceptical ; his morality is neither dangerously lax nor impracticably rigid. All the enchantment of fancy and all the cogency of argument are employed to recommend to the reader his real interest, the care of pleasing the Author of his being."
Many of the subjects discussed in these volumes may now appear trite, because frequent repetition and successive illustration have rendered them familiar; but in estimating the value and utility of such instructions, we must take into the account the wants and necessities of the public at the time they were given. Literature did not then pass through so many channels as in our days, nor were the facilities of communication so many: the number of readers was not great, and the books calculated by allurement to increase that number were very few. The demand for instruction, however, increased with the opportunities of supply, and they whom the Essayists taught to know a little, were soon incited by curiosity to know more. The duties of life had never been discussed in a popular manner, nor in portions adapted to the idle or the casual reader. Above all, the niceties of literature were not generally understood, and it is not the smallest merit of Addison, that "he superadded criticism," prescribed the rules of taste, and introduced a relish for genius that had been depressed or overlooked. His criticisms on PARADISE Lost directed the public admiration to a work which is now justly the boast of the nation; and although his successors in critical labours have been able not only to improve them, but to point out their defects, it ought to be remembered that he wrote without those helps from combined taste and skill which they now enjoy. « It is not uncommon for those who have grown wise by the labour of others, to add a little of their own, and overlook their masters. ADDIson is now despised by some who, perhaps, would never have seen his defects, but by the lights which he afforded them*."
Of Addison's style, the commendation of all judges has been uniform, and since the publication of Dr. Johnson's " Lives of the Poets," it
* JOHNSON. ADDISON's merit as a critic is ably and impartially considered in the notes to his Life in the Biog. Britannica, 2d edit. VOL. I.
has become almost proverbial to repeat, that " whoever wishes to attain an English style, familiar but not coarse, and elegant but not ostentatious, must give his days and nights to the yolumes of ADDISON." That few, however, are willing to bestow this labour, or anxious to obtain the reward, is sufficiently attested by the present state of literary composition. Yet perhaps it would be wrong to blame writers who, as candidates for public favour, aim at excellencies more in demand than familiarity or simple elegance, and who seem to be goaded sometimes by criticism, and sometimes by popular opinion, to produce ambitious ornaments," and to try "hazardous innovations." Since writers of coma manding reputation have been multiplied, and the structure of the language better understood, style has been regulated by a fashion to which we know not how to place limits. Of late the demand has been considerable for lofty periods and splendid imagery, verging sometimes on the excellence of poetry, and sometimes on the ostentation of bombast. The writers of QUEEN ANNE's reign are oftener, therefore, approved than imitated; we are unwilling to avail ourselves of the services they have rendered to our language; we force luminous periods and splendid passages by the heat of imagination, and are consequently more ambitious to be admired than understood, to be quoted for manner rather than to be useful for matter.
It would be unjust, however, to aver that such a taste is universal, although it be gaining more ground than it ought to occupy: we are not without authors who rest their fame on the elegancies of simplicity," on a style always agreeable, always easy;" and perhaps we should acknowledge the number of those who have formed themselves on the model of Addison to be greater, if unfortunately, when we look for his style, we did not at the same time look for his wit; and where is that to be found ?* If his style be separated from his wit, he is not perhaps without equals among his contemporaries, and among his successors; but his humour, in all its qualities, is the distinctive characteristic of his genius. A few facetiæ may occasionally be found among his successors, but such a perpetual flow, such a command of temper in ridicule, have never been given to any man in this country, and to any other it would be in vain to look ; for in no foreign lan. guage can we find a word to express the talent of which we are now speaking.
As the SPECTATOR, very soon after its being collected into volumes, became one of the first books by which both sexes are initiated in the elegancies of knowledge," its increasing influ. ence on the taste as well as the manners of the age rendered it a proper object for the calm examination of criticism, and there are accordingly few critics of eminence, placed in the schools of public instruction, who have not judged it requisite to point out its beauties and detect its blemishes.
* MOLIERE has been frequently named in the same rank with ADDISON. Lord CHESTERFIELD thinks " no man ever had so much humour as MOLIERE, of which his Miser, his Jealous Man, and his Bourgeois Gentilhomme are contineing proofs : and French Comedy," he adds, " furnishes a multiplicity of instances besides these." Letter 98. MisoellaneousWorks, vol. II. 4to. p. 284. But there appears an essential difference between the humour of a dramatic wri. ter and that of an essayist. The former enjoys advantages from the construction of dramatic composition, and the latitade it permits, of which the essayist cannot avail himself.


There is one thing you need to know if you are planning to move to Japan. Japanese people don't really like to rent their properties to the non-Japanese people. You probably wonder why. Well, there are few reasons for that. Firstly, they dread the idea of communicating with someone who doesn't speak their language. If you speak Japanese, you will be in a slightly better position. But, there are more reasons why they avoid foreigners on their properties. They think that non-Japanese people will be loud, rude and bad for the neighborhood. Also, they believe that other nationalities don't take as much care about recycling like them. Basically, these are all prejudices. Unfortunately for non-Japanese people, that is not conflicted with their laws when it comes to renting. So, for someone who isn't Japanese, any time could be the worst time to rent a home in Japan.
What is the worst time to rent a home in Japan?
So, now that you know how things are, do you still want to move to Japan? Let's assume that you are a brave person, who doesn't easily quit when the obstacle appears on their way. In that case, you should at least know what is the worst time to rent a home in Japan, so you can avoid it. Imagine what if would be like if you called international moving company Japan and came there just to found out that maybe it's not the best time for house searching. It is better to be safe than sorry, right? You wouldn't want to stay in a hotel or a friend's house more than you need to. And not to mention that Japanese people from work don't like to mix business and friendships. So you shouldn't rely on that.
preparations for the new peak season – September to December.
Unlike the US, the peak season for tenants and landlords in Japan is from January to March. Firstly, the demand is high because college students start their studies in April. So you know they would want to find an apartment before the classes start. Unless they can travel from home, which can be impossible if a home is far away. Or, they have to pay for hostels, which many students can't afford. Perhaps they can stay with a friend for a while, but they still must search for the longterm solution. So, if they don't start looking for the property on time, this could be the worst time to rent a home in Japan.
There is another reason why the period from January to March is the peak season. Many developers, leasing brokers, and other real estate companies close their books at the end of March. Of course, we all know what that means. Everyone will do whatever they can to close as many deals as possible. At the end of the financial year, everyone is chasing the results.
April is the month when companies start their fiscal year. So, that is also the time when they hire new workers. Those workers, along with the students, will be searching for apartments from January to March. If someone is moving for a job with a family, not having a place to stay can be a really big problem. Of course, they can always use some of the warehouses in Japan to store their belongings for safe keeping. But that can't last for long, a family needs a secure place to start a new life with all of their belongings. That is why they will be really serious in house hunting for the first three months of the year.
After the fiscal and the school year start in April, the market calms down. People even accepted higher rents just to be moved in before April. So, now the real estate agents try to fill up vacant properties. With the lower demand, it's not going smoothly. That is why that is a good time for tenants.
If you are someone who is looking to rent a place and not in a hurry, that's great. Wait for April to start and then call a moving company like Kokusai Express or similar. Landlords don't want their properties to be empty, so they are willing to negotiate. Tenants can easily get either discount on rent or maybe upgrades of properties for the same money. Sometimes landlords offer no key money as a way of a bargain. If you are wondering – key money if a gift that tenants give to landlords as a "thank you for letting me using your property". If you get any of these deals, it means that it's not the worst time to rent a home in Japan.
From September the market is starting to be more active. Many real estate companies have to report their half-year results, so they will step up their game. Also, they work hard along with the landlords until December to prepare everything for the upcoming peak period. So anyone who is planning overseas moving should be in contact with the real estate companies by now. Because if you are moving from afar, you have to start preparations early. The great news is that the good companies will try to find tenants before the peak season, so you will have a lot of choices at your disposal. This also isn't the worst time to rent a home in Japan, because sometimes you will have the opportunity to negotiate for a small discount on rent.
Obviously, whether it's the worst time to rent a home in Japan or not depends on who you are. If you are a tenant, try to avoid the peak season, because of the big demand. We know that Japanese customs can sound a little complicated, but before you move from Japan to California, do a little research. You will find out that it's really not that complicated and fall in love with the Japanese vibe for sure.


"The Living Double Of A Single Fiction"
Superman stands deep in S.T.A.R., surrounded by glass globes.�Dr. Welbourne appears in the doorway and introduces himself.�Superman asks what happened to the people contained in the globes, and Welbourne tells him about the Anti-Chromatic Syndrome that has been striking metahumans down.�Before Superman can say another word, a team bursts though the door bearing yet another black-and-white hero.�Superman looks at the small boy for a moment, and then remembers where he knew the boy from. Heroville.
Inside the formerly idyllic town, citizens lie everywhere, struck down with the mysterious condition.�Superman arrives suddenly, with four S.T.A.R. Labs workers in tow.�As the scientists begin to study the victims, Superman takes off into the sky.�Kal streaks to Dr. Camel's house.�Inside, he finds the house torn apart.�A lone woman lies on the ground, devoid of any pigment.�He suddenly hears someone yelling not far away.
In the middle of a street Dr. Camel, clad in a jumpsuit and sporting an energy weapon, threatens the three men approaching him.�Superman darts down to join the Doctor, but the Doctor screams for him to leave.�The eyes of the attackers glow and suddenly Superman finds himself inside of a prism.�He moans that there is no hope, when the three attackers are knocked aside by a blast from Dr. Camel's canon.�Gathering up Superman, Dr. Camel hoists him on his shoulder and blasts off into the sky with his jetpack.
Landing across town, the S.T.A.R. techs check Superman out while Dr. Camel explains the source of the problem.�The three men surround their victim and siphon the life out of them.�Dr. Camel says that there are still survivors in Heroville.�Taking off into the sky, Superman tells the Dr. to help the Techs out while he searches for anyone else.
Across town, Superman finds a boy hiding in a tree house.�The boy comes out and introduces himself as Kid Scout, but then points to the yard where the three attackers are standing.�Superman and Kid Scout are in the air as their eyes start glowing.�Among the clouds, Kid Scout asks who they were, and Clark thinks back to the past.
In the 1950s author Ben Conrad tries to convince his editor that he can write a book about a group of men trying to preserve a world without passion or heroes.�He gets the go ahead, but after it is published The Hollow Men just sits on the shelves.�Years later young Clark Kent is reading another book by Benjamin Conrad when one of his teachers sees him.�He tells Clark of another book by the author, and heading to a shelf he pulls out a copy of the book.
In the present, Superman suddenly realizes what is happening.�Touching down near everyone else, he tells them that the attackers are known as the Hollow Men and that they are from a 1950s fictional story.�He knows the author, and the last time the author tried writing fiction the character came to life.�Clearly the same thing has happened with this book too.�However, that book was only a manuscript and could be deleted easily.�The Hollow Men exist everywhere.
Dr. Camel says that they will need to find Conrad, but Superman says he can't leave them alone in Heroville.�Just then Kid Scout pipes up and volunteers for the task. With his powers he can find anyone, anywhere.�Superman considers for a moment, and then tells the boy to be careful and wishes him luck.�After Dr. Camel points him toward the tesseract exit, Kid Scout takes off running.
Hours later the Kid still has not returned.�Looking over the city they can see a glow coming from another part of town.�Superman tells them all that the Hollow Men are burning books.�These men can do more than inflict the disease; they can steal their ability to dream of a better world.�If they aren't stopped they will remove all sense of hope from the world.
Story - 3: I'm not a big fan of the Heroville concept.�I think the DCU has enough metahumans as it is without throwing a few hundred more into the mix.�However, I'm going to try to ignore that for the purpose of this review.�The hollow men are interesting, if not great villains.�Casey is trying to give us a variety of villains that aren't your standard, and I appreciate the offer. However, a triad of monochromatic men from the 50s isn't really what I like to read.�Still, for the course of the story it works.�Kid Scout and the others seem to be thrown in just because there is an opportunity to create new characters, and they just don't seem important enough to do so.�If they vanish after the arc then fine, but otherwise it's just not going to work.�This issue also had some holes.�It is daytime when Superman rescues Kid Scout, but dark out when he gets back to camp?�Also, it mentions the trials of the JSA.�I'm pretty sure that this only happened in the Elseworlds "The Golden Age" (which is absolutely fantastic, I recommend you pick it up).�If I'm wrong then I'd appreciate the correction, but if not then this bothers me as well.�This issue also moved way too slowly.�He's at Star Labs and then he heads to Heroville where he meets the doctor, saves Kid Scout, figures out who the Hollow Men are, and then sends Kid Scout to find Conrad.�The whole storyline has just felt long and drawn out so far.�Despite all of this griping the storyline is intriguing and definitely a change from the status quo.�I want to see how it turns out next issue before I decide on the story as a whole.�This issue though just left me apathetic.�I didn't really like it but I didn't hate it either.�Pretty average.
Art - 2: The art really didn't do anything for me though.�Every page is too dark for my taste, with the inking done way to heavily.�Superman's face looks completely wrong, and scenes and backgrounds have little to no detail.�I do like that I can tell what is going on (not always a guarantee lately) but the whole issue is just too heavy on the inks.�Maybe if they were toned down I would like it, but as it stands it really did nothing for me.
Cover Art - 2: And then we reach the bottom of the barrel.�First off, there is no background.�I realize the theme of this issue, and therefore the black and white background, but still, the constant lack of background detail is horrible.�Secondly, and primarily, they let Nowlan do a cover again.�Ever since DC 1st: Superman/Flash I have disliked his art.�Superman's legs are anorexic and his chest is too big.�His ribs look like they are going to puncture his skin any moment and his facial expression is just stupid.�The only redeeming factor of this cover is the color bleeding away from Kal where he is being touched and the fact that there are three hollow men and six hands on the cover.�Finally some accuracy in a cover.�Regardless, the art is just horrible and the cover is boring.�If the interior artists can't handle doing covers then they could at least get someone good.�I'm sure there are people out there who would sign on to be cover artists.�Why can't they get one or two for Superman?

EU emissions remain 4% below pre-pandemic levels despite rebound after COVID recovery
Novinový článok26 október 2022Generálne riaditeľstvo pre oblasť klímy
The Commission today adopted the EU Climate Action Progress Report. While EU domestic greenhouse gas emissions rose by 4.8% in 2021 from their exceptionally low 2020 pandemic level, they remained 4% below 2019 levels.
The Commission today adopted two reports on progress made in EU climate policy in 2021: the EU Climate Action Progress Report and the Fuel Quality Report. While EU domestic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions rose by 4.8% in 2021 from their exceptionally low 2020 pandemic level, they remained 4% below 2019 levels. EU net domestic emissions, including the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) sector, were 30% lower than 1990 levels, and remain broadly on track to achieve the EU's -55% net GHG emissions target by 2030.
Overall, EU net domestic emissions in 2021, including LULUCF, were 30% lower than 1990 levels, broadly consistent with the trajectory to achieve the EU 55% reduction target by 2030.
Executive Vice-President for the European Green Deal, Frans Timmermans said:
"In the last year the world has faced unprecedented difficulties. The global health crisis, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the surge in energy prices have highlighted our fragility, while the devastating impacts of the climate crisis continue to materialise before our eyes. Against uncertainty and with huge challenges still ahead, the European Green Deal is and remains our blueprint and guide for a resilient and climate-neutral Europe. Work continues to deliver on its targets, so that we reduce greenhouse gas emissions, create jobs and boost innovation. We should not be under any illusion that this transition is going to be easy, but the human and economic costs of inaction will only increase the longer we wait. We simply cannot afford to slow down."
Compared to the previous year, 2021 emissions from sectors covered by the Emission Trading System (EU ETS) increased by 6.6%. The EU ETS covers power generation, the bulk of industrial production and emissions from intra-EU aviation. The increase reflects both the economic recovery from COVID-19 and the developing energy crisis. Following a drop of some 60% in 2020, EU ETS aviation emissions rebounded in 2021 by 30% but remained 50% lower than in 2019.
Since the introduction of the EU ETS in 2005, emissions covered by the system have been cut by around 34.6%. In parallel, Member States have raised over €100 billion in auction revenues since 2013, to be used for further climate action and energy transition measures.
Non-ETS emissions - from smaller-scale industry, transport, buildings, agriculture and waste - increased by 3.5%. The most pronounced increase was in the transport sector, where emissions rose by over 7% compared to 2020. Emissions from buildings also saw a rise of 3.1%. Emissions from the agriculture sector dipped slightly by -0.3%, but the long-term decrease in agricultural emissions has been small compared to 2005.
Carbon dioxide can be removed from the atmosphere and accumulated in vegetation and soils (by the land use, land use change and forestry – LULUCF – sector), but these removals decreased between 2013-2020, and are now 30% lower than 1990 levels. The main reason the EU's carbon sinks have shrunk over that period is higher demand for wood, an increasing share of forests reaching harvest maturity and an increase in natural disturbances such as storms and infestations.
The Fuel Quality Report shows that further action is needed to meet the target of reducing the GHG intensity of transport fuels by 6%, which has applied since January 2021. On average, the GHG intensity of fuels in 27 Member States has fallen by 5.5% compared to the 2010 baseline, decreasing by 1.2 percentage points in each of the past two years. However, progress varies greatly across Member States, with eleven of them having achieved the target set out under the Fuel Quality Directive.
While, on balance, the EU remains on track to deliver on its climate ambition, swift action is required to reach the 2030 goal of at least -55% net GHG emissions and climate neutrality by 2050. That is why the Commission proposed a comprehensive package of climate, energy, transport and tax policy proposals in July 2021 to ensure that the EU policy framework is fit to achieve the EU's higher climate ambition. The 'Fit for 55' proposals are now being negotiated by the European Parliament and the Council.
The transition to climate neutrality requires substantial investment. For the 26 recovery and resilience plans (RRPs) submitted by Member States and adopted by mid-September 2022, 40% of total planned expenditure is allocated to climate investments.
The Commission continues to work with the financial sector to align capital flows with climate objectives. These efforts include implementing the renewed sustainable finance strategy.
A range of EU funding instruments back a fair green transition, in which those most vulnerable to the social and economic impact are supported. The Just Transition Fund was proposed in January 2020 and supports the most affected regions as part of Cohesion Policy. To date, 19 Territorial Just Transition Plans have been adopted which mobilise EUR 6.1 billion of a total of EUR 19.2 billion. The JTF is part of a broader Just Transition Mechanism which is expected to mobilise near EUR 55 billion for a just climate transition in the EU. A Council recommendation on ensuring a fair transition to climate neutrality was adopted in June 2022 to provide guidance for Member States on designing and implementing policy packages on employment, skills, social and distributional aspects of the transition. Member States are also putting in place measures to provide people on low incomes with access to energy and transport.
The Climate Action Progress Report "Accelerating the transition to climate neutrality for Europe's security and prosperity" describes progress made by the EU and its Member States in attaining its greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, as well as reporting recent developments in EU climate policy. The report is based on data submitted by Member States under the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action Regulation.
The Fuel Quality Report provides information on the progress made with regard to the greenhouse gas intensity reduction of the road transport fuels and the quality and composition of fuels supplied in the EU. The report summarises the situation reported by Member States under Articles 7a and 8(3) of the Fuel Quality Directive.

McNair Shirts discuss how they have developed their merino wool Mountain Shirt, which is made in Huddersfield with weaving, milling, raising and steaming all done within a 10 mile radius.
Inspired by the fact that the popular Dachstein mountain gloves are made from felted wool, McNair set out to make a performance shirt from natural fibres instead of the brightly coloured synthetics that are typically used for outdoor clothing.
The company also wanted to demonstrate that it was possible to make a high-quality product in the UK, using a principled and traditional approach.
The result is the McNair Mountain Shirt, which is made from merino wool, carefully processed to improve thermal efficiency and weather resistance, in natural colours.
It is made in Huddersfield and all the work to the fabric - the weaving, milling, raising and steaming - is done within 10 miles of where the shirt is produced.

Q: How did they have time to build Balin a tomb? Who built the tomb for Balin, buried him in it, and inscribed "Here lies Balin, son of Fundin..." on it? Wasn't he, and every other dwarf with him, killed by orcs?

A: Balin died before they were all slain
Balin having gone to look into Mirrormere, which was out the Eastern gate of Moria, had been shot by an Arrow. His body was however recovered and later the Dwarves must've built him a tomb. However their doom seemed to be reasonably after his death. This is evident given the Dwarves were slain at the West gate, having travelled through Moria before being killed in the end.

'The first clear word is sorrow, but the rest of the line is lost, unless it ends in estre. Yes, it must be yestre followed by day being the tenth of novembre Balin lord of Moria fell in Dimrill Dale. He went alone to look in Mirror mere. an orc shot him from behind a stone. we slew the orc, but many more … up from east up the Silverlode ... I wonder what happened afterwards; but there is no time to puzzle out the last few pages. Here is the last page of all.' He paused and sighed.
'It is grim reading,' he said. 'I fear their end was cruel. Listen! We cannot get out. We cannot get out. They have taken the Bridge and second hall. Frár and Lóni and Náli fell there. Then there are four lines smeared so that I can only read went 5 days ago. The last lines run the pool is up to the wall at Westgate. The Watcher in the Water took Óin. We cannot get out. The end comes, and then drums, drums in the deep. I wonder what that means. The last thing written is in a trailing scrawl of elf-letters: they are coming. There is nothing more.' Gandalf paused and stood in silent thought.
The Fellowship of the Ring - Book II, Chapter 5: The Bridge of Khazad-Dûm

Although Gandalf skips a couple of pages, we can guess that the tomb was either built, or Balin laid there either before they were trapped, and the dwarves only returning there after reaching the east gate, or building it during their final stand in honour of their attempts and their King Balin.
It's worth remembering that initially the dwarves were successful at driving out the Orcs, however they returned with greater force and swept away the unprepared Dwarves.

The tomb also, certainly, existed in the books:

Their feet disturbed a deep dust upon the floor, and stumbled among things lying in the doorway whose shapes they could not at first make out. The chamber was lit by a wide shaft high in the further eastern wall; it slanted upwards and, far above, a small square patch of blue sky could be seen. The light of the shaft fell directly on a table in the middle of the room: a single oblong block, about two feet high, upon which was laid a great slab of white stone.
'It looks like a tomb,' muttered Frodo, and bent forwards with a curious sense of foreboding, to look more closely at it. Gandalf came quickly to his side. On the slab runes were deeply graven:
'These are Daeron's Runes, such as were used of old in Moria,' said Gandalf. 'Here is written in the tongues of Men and Dwarves:
Balin son of Fundin
Lord of Moria.'
'He is dead then,' said Frodo. `I feared it was so.' Gimli cast his hood over his face.
ibid. - Chapter 4: A Journey in the Dark

A: Dwarves are good at working stone, and had some time between when Balin fell and when they were finally wiped out.  In LotR, the Book of Mazarbul says:

'The first clear word is sorrow, but the rest of the line is lost, unless it ends in estre. Yes, it must be yestre followed by day being the tenth of novembre Balin lord of Moria fell in Dimrill Dale. He went alone to look in Mirror mere. an orc shot him from behind a stone. we slew the orc, hut many more ... up from east up the Silverlode. The remainder of the page is so blurred that I can hardly make anything out, but I think I can read we have barred the gates, and then can hold them long if, and then perhaps horrible and suffer. Poor Balin! He seems to have kept the title that he took for less than five years. I wonder what happened afterwards; but there is no time to puzzle out the last few pages. Here is the last page of all.' He paused and sighed.

The timing isn't explicit, but Balin was killed before most of the Orcs had even entered Moria or the Dwarves were aware of their peril -- otherwise, Balin would have been a lot more careful.  The period between when Balin died and the orcs were inside Moria in numbers may have been many weeks or even longer -- Moria was designed to withstand siege.
We know that Dwarves were very solicitous of the bodies of their dead leaders, so that they would build a tomb while they were fighting off what might have been just another incursion of orcs doesn't seem unreasonable.

A: It is also possible that Balin's tomb was built in anticipation of his future death, particularly since he was the first Lord of the reclaimed realm of Moria.

Naomie Harris will play a field agent called Eve in the upcoming 23rd Bond film, Skyfall.
At a press conference this morning where, we have to say, very little else was given away, Londonder Naomie was joined by Bond himself; Daniel Craig, Dame Judi Dench (M), 'the villain' Javier Bardem and French TV actress Berenice Marlohe, who will also play a love interest.
We guess it's difficult to give good answers when you have director, Sam Mendes, reminding everyone how top secret everything is every few seconds.
The only thing Craig would (jokingly) reveal is that he spends most of the script with his shirt off. "That's the gig," he laughed.
Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, and The Hour actor Ben Whishaw were also named as cast members in the film that comes out on October 26th, 2012, nearly 50 years to the day after the release of the first Bond film, Dr No.

Boxing Champ Leon Spinks' Prostate Cancer Has Spread — What Are the Treatment Options?
Options for advanced stage prostate cancer, and why there's reason for hope.
Laura Gesualdi-Gilmore SurvivorNet
Former heavyweight boxing champ Leon Spinks — who famously defeated Muhammad Ali in 1978 — was diagnosed with prostate cancer last May, and the cancer has since spread to his bladder, according to his family.
Spinks' wife, Brenda, told USA Today that her 66-year-old husband had been hospitalized for several months, but has since returned to their home in Henderson, Nev,, and will continue treatment on an outpatient basis.
"It's going to be a long road and a lot of work," she said. "But we are bound and determined for the Champ to make a comeback." Before returning home on Christmas Eve, Spinks — who also won a gold medal in the 1976 olympics as a light heavyweight — had been hospitalized since August, USA Today reported.
African American Men More Likely to Develop Prostate Cancer
As an African American, Spinks had a significantly higher risk of developing prostate cancer than other men.
Dr. Edwin Posadas, a urologic oncologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, told SurvivorNet that prostate cancer affects men of different ethnicities differently. For example, African American and Latino men are significantly more likely to develop prostate cancer than white or Asian men, and this affects the age and frequency that men should be screened for the disease, Dr. Posadas said.
RELATED: When Should I Start Screening for Prostate Cancer?
Spinks' wife did not disclose what type of treatment her husband was undergoing for his advanced disease, but there are several options for prostate cancer that has spread to other organs — as the boxer's has.
What are the Options for Advanced Prostate Cancer?
Hormonal Therapy
A standard treatment for men with metastatic prostate cancer — or disease that has spread — is hormonal therapy, Dr. Stephen Freedland, director of the Center for Integrated Research in Cancer and Lifestyle at Cedars-Sinai, told SurvivorNet in a past interview.
"Usually for men with tumors that spread, hormonal therapy is used as the first-line that we do," Dr. Freedland said. "More importantly, it's the backbone upon which we build. We typically won't say, 'Let's forget hormones, let's go straight to chemotherapy.' What we do know is actually putting the two together is certainly better for men with tumors that have spread to the bone and different areas."
Hormonal therapy does comes with some pretty serious side effects. It can cause a male menopause of sorts with hot flashes, osteoporosis and weight gain — and lead to a significantly higher risk of diabetes. Still, Dr. Freedland pointed out that the degree to which this type of therapy shrinks tumors is much better than chemotherapy. Hormonal therapy — also know as androgen deprivation therapy — reduces the levels of testosterone which can stimulate prostate cells to grow.
"If we take away testosterone we can shrink down the tumor and hold it in check for often years and years and years," Dr. Freedland said.
Radiation may also be an option for some men with advanced prostate cancer, as this mode of treatment has become much more successful at treating men with this disease in the past few decades.
"The reason that we've become more successful in treating prostate cancer over the last 30 years with radiation is because we've been able to get a higher dose in the prostate," Dr. Patrick Swift, clinical professor of Radiation Oncology at Stanford Health, told SurvivorNet in a previous interview.
Dr. Swift explained that "dose escalation" has allowed doctors to get a higher-dose of radiation into the affected area. The risk with this, however, is that increasing the dose increases the risk of radiation damaging nearby organs.
He added that as technology gets better, doctors have been making use of something called Image-Guided Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). IMRT allows doctors to get the needed dose of radiation to the affected areas, with minimal damage to other organs that may be in the way.
"The modulation is like painting the area that we want to get the high dose of radiation into, but really minimizing the dose of radiation to the nearby critical structures," Dr. Swift said.

Welcome to week 13 of the Home Organization Challenge. This week, we are cleaning and organizing the laundry room. To me, this is one of the most rewarding weeks of the challenge. I love a clean laundry room. Purge as much as you can this week and enjoy your laundry room once again.
This week, I challenge you to clean your laundry room from top to bottom, finish all of the laundry, and organize the space for functionality. If you don't have a laundry room, clean out the area where you keep your laundry supplies. To begin the process and in order to be fully organized, everything should be emptied out of the space, so you can see it clearly and start fresh. Its time to clear the clutter.
1. EMPTY – Empty out the ENTIRE laundry room. Everything but the washer & dryer must go.
2. PURGE – Purge anything that doesn't belong. Toss empty detergent bottles, trash, donate unwanted or un-needed items and put things away.
3. CLEAN – Pull out the washer/dryer and vacuum behind it. Clean out the dryer vent. Wipe down the outside of the washer and dryer. Clean out the washer. Pour 1 cup of bleach into the drum, then run a full wash cycle on the hottest setting (empty). Wipe down all shelving, walls, baseboards, doors, switch plates & dust the light.
5. LAUNDRY – Wash, dry, fold & put away all laundry. Finish every load!
6. CLEANING CADDY – Put together a cleaning caddy. Place all necessary household cleaners in it.
7. DECORATE – Finally, you can decorate your laundry room to make it more inviting.
Here are several blog posts that will inspire you to get your laundry room organized.
Clear the clutter from your laundry room this week. Show us your hard work and share your progress on Instagram using the hash tag #abfolchallenge, blog about the weekly challenges, and share your before and after pictures over at my Home Organization group here. Hold yourself accountable and finish all 14 challenges! I can't wait to see what you accomplish. Good luck. I'll see you back next week to finish off the 2018 challenge. Happy Organizing!

In order to get Dominic prepped and ready for hunting in the next couple of weeks we needed to get my old rifle sighted in for him. Special thanks to my buddy Steve for taking us out to his parents' farm to help us out.
After a very scenic hour long drive to just outside of Hillsboro we unpacked the rifles and got everything situated. Steve did an excellent job of helping to keep the boys safe and coach them on shooting. Dominic started with a .22 and then worked his way up to my Mini 30 and Gavin got in a couple of shots on a BB gun and then the .22. Both boys did pretty well!
If you look closely you can see the smoke and the casing flying through the air!
Once the boys were done I was able to use two guns that I had not used in a very long time, two guns that mean a ton to me. One is my grandpa's old hunting rifle, the other is my other grandpa's old BB gun. In the case of both of them there was definitely a feel of nostalgia and a wave of awesome old memories of both of my grandpas when I picked each of the guns up. In both cases I'm pretty sure I had both of them helping me shoot at a least one shot from each (one of the bullseyes was pretty much dead center, I must've had some help on that one, even though it was close).
A long time ago my dad made a comment to me about taking a moment to think about the person who gave me something whenever I use it or pick it up. I still find it interesting that one comment made a long time ago (while building the garage) has stuck with me all this time and keeps ringing in my head when I pick things up. Just over the past couple of days this has included a watch from Garwood, Packer Super Bowl confetti from my Uncle Frank, and a bottle opener from Rick.
The time that I spent thinking about both of my grandpas, while fleeting as the moment was, has stuck with me and I keep thinking about the two of them during the chaos of the rest of my day and it makes me smile. It also warms my soul to think that each of them are somewhere up above and probably smiling at seeing me use their guns and remember times I had with them. At some point down the road (hopefully a long ways off!) I'm excited to be with them again, give them big hugs, and tell them thanks for helping me shoot today.

As Public Enemy said, you shouldn't believe the hype....except when its that Strausberg kid. Kid is filthy. I mean his change-up is 90 mph. That's just unfair.
Jason Bay loves playing in Citi Field. I mean, come on! In Fenway last season, he had a measly 36 HRs. Now this season...he's got 4. Heck yeah! It's June 14th and he's got 4. Yeah, Jason, maybe you should have stayed in Fenway, dude. Oh and the Mets cannot be happy that 60 million dollars bought them a slugging percentage 70 points behind Rod Barajas.
So Texas and Oklahoma go to the Pac-10. Nebraska goes to the Big 10. And maybe West Virginia and Pitt goes to the ACC. Like I said before, I couldn't care less about all of this, as long as it ends up with 4 mega-conferences and a playoff system.
I can't help thinking that the Red Sox are going to trade Jonathan Papelbon. Maybe not in July, but next winter perhaps. Papelbon just doesn't look like the same guy from a few years back. Don't get me wrong, he's still an excellent closer. And that's the point. With Daniel Bard behind him and pitching extremely well, the Red Sox have the luxury of trading Papelbon, and still having a closer ready to step up. So they trade him to a team that needs a closer (Washington? Philadelphia?) and pull in some prospects.
For his own good, I felt Tom Izzo should have stayed at Michigan State, but if he does go to Cleveland, I think LeBron stays.
Great article on Jamie Moyer in the Baseball Times and how he deified the odds when it comes to the longevity of his career. A career that began with his first game pitching against....Steve Carlton.While the guy may never be a Hall of Famer (and he shouldn't be), you have to admire the man's perseverance.
Nothing like stompin' on truly awful teams to get your mojo back.
Didn't Shaq say a while back that he was going to retire before he got to old and busted? Pretty sure he did.
And finally, as if I needed another reason to hate the so-called "sport" known as soccer—oh sorry, I mean futball—the World Cup has provided one. The freakin' vuvuzela. Trying to watch the games with that constant irritating blaring for 3 ungodly hours....well it proved impossible. Seriosly, one of the most annoying sound I've ever heard—along with Bill Walton. The World Cup is wondering why the games selling out? How about because everyone around blaring these things in your ears for 3 hours while you watch an insanely boring game?
A 90 MPH change-up? Yikes.
Unless I was a pitcher or a Punch and Judy speed guy, I would not even consider playing for the Mets in Citi Field. The Mets should try to become a pure speed team like the Cardinals were in the '80's. Watching them as they are now is brutality.
Can you imagie the amount of money generated if they instituted a play-off system and had the National Championship game on Super Bowl weekend? Personally, I need something to do on the Saturday night of Super Bowl weekend. Vegas would love it too, because whether you win or lose the college game, you're gonna be motivated to bet even more on Super Bowl Sunday.
I think Izzo should stay right where he is...successful college coaches get hammered when they try to coach in the NBA. Calipari, Pitino, etc. should call him and let him know how it is a player's league.
Wow, you are right P-Cat. Soccer is tough to watch under any circumstances, and that shrill noise makes it worse. Awful.

The most effective little bit, though, is that Macs keep an eye on exactly how and also to which you most often share stuff. Whether due to the fact that you instantly know you've left a dodgy tab open on an iPad you've simply handed to a colleague or since it's just flat-out easier to go through as well as close a number of tabs on your Mac instead of on an iphone device, you must understand that you could shut tabs open up on any type of device authorized right into your Apple ID from Safari given that Yosemite.
Additionally, if you get on a MacBook just click it with three fingers on your trackpad. This panel offers you accessibility to a massive range of signs you could drag right into your papers.

Gujarmal Modi: The Resolute Industrialist – a Book that celebrates the Modi Family Legacy
'Gujarmal Modi: The Resolute Industrialist', is the first book of a series titled 'Entrepreneurs Who Built India'. Published by Harper Collins India and authored by Sonu Bhasin, the book was recently released in March 2022. Bhasin, in her book 'Gujarmal Modi: The Resolute Industrialist' writes about Rai Bahadur Gujarmal Modi, an ambitious young man and who rose to prominence as one of the country's most successful entrepreneurs till date. She gives a vivid account of Gujarmal Modi who made it to the top of the field of industry and created the historic legacy of 'The Modi Family' which continues to be celebrated as one of India's oldest business families.
The book 'Gujarmal Modi: The Resolute Industrialist' traces the journey of Global Thought Leader, Dr. M's father Gujarmal Modi, who in the year 1932 had been banished from the princely state of Patiala for refusing a glass of wine, served at a celebratory party hosted by the Maharaja of Patiala. Gujarmal Modi, a teetotaller left Patiala with a meagre Rs. 300 in his pocket and made his way to Delhi. He started his life as an entrepreneur by establishing Modi Sugar Mills in Begumbad on the edge of Delhi, marking the beginning of the Modi Empire. Commenting on the transformation of Gujarmal Modi to Rai Bahadur Gujarmal Modi – an industrialist and a Padmashree awardee, author Sonu Bhasin said, "He dreamt of building an industrial town. And he achieved his dream in merely thirteen years. His story is both interesting and inspiring and will help the managers and entrepreneurs of today realise that obstacles are just bumps on the path to success."
The story of Shri Rai Bahadur Gujarmal Modi exemplifies the dramatic changes that India had witnessed as it transitioned from a British colony to an independent nation and from then on an industrial economy. From the stories of rabid racism that saw Gujarmal Modi being called a "dirty Indian" by an Englishman in pre-independence India or from setting up some of the best factories in independent India to being coerced to follow government diktat and witness the transition to the socialist state – Gujarmal Modi saw it all.
Rai Bahadur Gujarmal Modi's legacy is continued today by his son, Dr. M who has carried forward his father's futuristic vision and determination to succeed. The "Modi" name acquired a global recognition through the efforts and vision of Dr. M who has come to be known as the 'JV king of India' and a 'Man of Many firsts' for ushering in revolutions in digital India, office automation and mobility that have transformed India as we know it. The penchant for building townships that perpetuate the Modi name continues across generations. Like his father before him, Dr. M, has also set up Modipur – a township in Rampur, Uttar Pradesh that was home to the Modi Xerox factory – one of the pioneering international joint ventures of a developing India. Today Modipur, Rampur is envisioned as a private smart city complete with the latest wellness living facilities and enabled by technology.
Both, Rai Bahadur Gujarmal Modi and Dr. M have played a key role in enabling and advancing India's development. The contributions by Shri Rai Bahadur Gujarmal Modi are remembered even today by stalwarts. Commenting on the book by Sonu Bhasin, Harsh Goenka, chairman at RPG Enterprises, said the book highlights the story of a "true legend". "Gujarmalji was a towering personality. He was instrumental in making Modinagar the capital of India's industrial map and it remains a testimony to an era when a giant of a man full of spirit and gumption walked the earth. A true hero!
