This is a List of Ontario Tourist Routes throughout the province, which are designated to highlight places of cultural, environmental, or social importance.

It is currently unknown if the majority of these trails are still listed since many of the provincial highways of Ontario were decommissioned in 1997 and 1998, as the Tourist Trails followed the provincial highways for the majority of their length, although many sections travel along county roads and municipal/local streets as well. Although many municipalities, cities, and counties still sign these tourist routes, others may have chosen to discontinue them with the highways they followed, rendering them as historical footnotes.

African-Canadian Heritage Tour

The African-Canadian Heritage Tour (ACHT) is a designated trail along several county and city roads, and provincial highways.

The trail starts on Queen Street in the Sandwich neighbourhood of Windsor, Ontario. It turns west at Prince Road, before turning south along Sandwich Street. It curves along Sandwich Parkway to Ojibway Parkway, formerly Highway 18. The trail follows County Road 20 to Amherstburg to County Road 10, which turns onto. It travels east along Middle Side Road towards the community of McGregor.

The route turns north along County Road 9 (Howard Avenue) back to Windsor, Ontario. The ACHT turns east briefly along Highway 3, before turning onto Highway 401 eastbound to exit 28, County Road 25 (Puce Road). From there it travels to the town of Puce. The trail turns east along County Road 22 through Belle River until it meets County Road 42 southeast of the town. The trail turns and follows it through Tilbury, becoming Chatham–Kent Road 2, formerly Highway 2.

The route turns south onto County Road 7 (Merlin Road) through the small community of Fletcher before turning east onto County Road 14 (8th Line). It follows County Road 14 through North Buxton to Highway 40. Upon reaching Highway 40, the trail follows it for  through Chatham. It turns right along County Road 29 (Countryview Line) and heads northeast through Turnerville, turning north at County Road 29 (Lindsay Road). It follows this road to its terminus in Dresden, where the Uncle Tom's Cabin Historic Site can be found.

Algonquin Route
The Algonquin Route was a loop north from Highway 401 through Algonquin Park and back. The route started at the Highway 35 / Highway 115 and Highway 401 interchange (exit 436) in Newcastle. At the split of Highway 35/115, the trail follows Highway 35 north through Lindsay and travels along a brief concurrency with Highway 7. It continues north along Highway 35 through Coboconk, Minden, Carnarvon and Dorset to Highway 60. From here, the trail turned east and crosses Algonquin Provincial Park. East of the park, Highway 60 meets Highway 41. The route turned south, passing through Eganville and following Highway 41 south to Napanee. The Algonquin Route was created as part of the Yours to Discover campaign by the Ontario provincial government, beginning in 1980 and continuing through the 1990s.
Signage was no longer posted after 1998.

Bluewater Route

The Bluewater Route follows Highway 21 along the shore of Lake Huron between Highway 402 and Owen Sound. The route passes through the small towns of Grand Bend, Goderich and Kincardine, as well as passing by the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station.

Deer Trail Route
The Deer Trail Route is a circular route in the Algoma Region of northern Ontario. Though it is circular, it has a "starting" point at the junction of Highway 17 and Highway 108 in Serpent River. It follows Highway 108 for its entire length, travelling through Elliot Lake, until the road becomes Highway 639. At the northern terminus of Highway 639, the road then turns back south along Highway 546 to its intersection with Highway 17 in Iron Bridge. From there it travels back along Highway 17 through Blind River, Algoma Mills and Spragge to Serpent River at a total distance of approximately .

The route serves mainly as an access route to wilderness recreation areas such as Mississagi Provincial Park. It also serves as a venue for an annual Deer Trail Studio Tour, a regional arts festival in which various venues along the route display and sell the work of local artists and craftspeople.

Frontier Route
The Frontier Route travels through Northern Ontario from the Manitoba border to Barrie. The route travels along Highway 17 through Kenora, Dryden, Ignace, and Thunder Bay to the Highway 11 intersection in Nipigon.

From there, the Route follows Highway 11 across northern Ontario and south through Muskoka. It passes through the towns of Geraldton, Longlac, Hearst, Kapuskasing, Smooth Rock Falls, Cochrane, Iroquois Falls, Kirkland Lake, New Liskeard, North Bay, Huntsville, Bracebridge, Gravenhurst, and Orillia, before terminating at Highway 400 in Barrie. Until Highway 11 was decommissioned as a provincial highway south of Barrie, it continued south to the Gardiner Expressway in downtown Toronto.

This trail also follows the Voyageur Route for a portion of its length.

Georgian Bay Coastal Route
The Georgian Bay Coastal Route is a signed  route around the Georgian Bay  The MS Chi-Cheemaun Ferry connects Manitoulin Island to Tobermory

Golden Highway
The Golden Highway travels through Northern Ontario and the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec It begins in Timmins along Highway 101, and progresses east to Highway 11 in Matheson. It heads south on Highway 11 to Kenogami Lake, then turns east towards Kirkland Lake and the Quebec boundary along Highway 66. A branch also travels west along Highway 66 from Kenogami Lake to Matachewan. Thus, the entire length of Highway 66 is part of the Golden Highway.

The Golden Highway continues in Quebec as Route 117 through the city of Rouyn-Noranda before terminating in  Val-d'Or.

Great River Road

The Great River Road loops through the northwestern section of the province. It begins in Kenora and travels east along Highway 17 to Highway 71, where it heads south, staying close to Lake of the Woods. It meets Highway 11 in Barwick, branching into two directions: one spur travels west along Highway 11 to Rainy River, while the main route travels east along Highway 11 to Fort Frances.

The eastern branch continues to Highway 502, travelling back up towards Dryden, and looping back west along Highway 17 to Kenora.

Heritage Highway

The Heritage Highway, also known as Historic Highway, travels from Windsor to Gaspé, Quebec along much of what was formerly Highway 2 and Quebec Route 2, now Route 138 (Chemin du Roy) and Route 132. The 1972 designation originally included various spur routes and connections to destinations such as Niagara Falls, Stratford, Sarnia, Ottawa-Hull and Sault Ste. Marie.

One spur continued along the Detroit River on Highway 18, now Essex County Road 20. It followed the northern shore of Lake Erie east to Leamington. It then continued along Highway 3 to Wainfleet, before terminating at Fort Erie. Another spur along Highway 11 met Highway 17, the Voyageur Route east and west to Montreal and Sault Ste. Marie. Much of the original signage is now gone, but a few signs remain on the routes, with one sign in Harrow on County Road 20. Until 1997, there were a few signs along former Highway 3 alignment near the Cottam and Essex areas.

As the route is now mostly county road, signage has been maintained in some areas, removed in some and left to simply fade to illegibility in others. In some areas where the signed route is concurrent with other posted tourist routes, markers for newly designated routes have displaced the "Heritage Highway" wheel. One such example is Trenton where on Highways 2 and 33 the Heritage Highway and Loyalist Parkway run concurrently with other signed tourist routes including a former Apple Route (to Brighton), a segment of the Wine Route (to Picton) and the Hastings County Arts Route (through Belleville).

Recent signage bears a white-on-brown wheel and the words "Heritage Highway - Route des Pionniers", the latter being a version of the French language translation of "Heritage Highways, Sur la Route des Pionniers" used in the original 1972 joint promotional effort with Québec.

Lake Nipissing Circle Tour
The Lake Nipissing Circle Tour is a tourist route that travels around Lake Nipissing. It follows Highway 11 from an intersection with former Highway 11B to the interchange with Highway 654 just south of Callander. It then follows Highway 534 to Carr, where it turns on to the short Highway 524. At the end of that highway, it follows Highway 522 to Highway 69. At Alban, it turns on to Highway 64, before turning on to Highway 17 near Sturgeon Falls and following it to North Bay. Once it meets the former Highway 17B, it turns down that road (Main Street), following it to the southern intersection with former Highway 11B.

Loyalist Parkway

A section of Highway 33 between Amherstview and Trenton was designated the Loyalist Parkway in 1984. This designation was made to honour the United Empire Loyalists, who first settled that area of Ontario. The official designation was presided over by Queen Elizabeth II, when she visited Kingston during Ontario's bicentennial celebrations. Highway 33 now ends at Bloomfield, and the Loyalist Parkway continues as Prince Edward County Road 33 toward Stirling.

Oil Heritage Route

The Oil Heritage Route travels along Lambton County Road 21, formerly Highway 21, from its interchange with Highway 402, through Wyoming, Petrolia, Oil City and Oil Springs. It then curves east then south to Dresden, meeting the African-Canadian Heritage Tour route.

This route is still signed, Lambton CR 21's name north of Rutherford is "Oil Heritage Road".

Talbot Trail

The Talbot Trail is an historically significant overland route completed in the 1820s along the north shore of Lake Erie.  The building of the route of almost  in length was overseen by Colonel Thomas Talbot. It was originally a corduroy road, eventually becoming Highway 3 and several numbered county roads. Its original intent was to provide a continuous land route for settlers and military personnel between the Niagara region and Detroit, aiding in the development of the Talbot Settlement.

The route begins in Windsor and travels southeast and then east through Leamington, Wheatley, Blenheim and St. Thomas. East of Aylmer, it leaves Highway 3 and follows County Road 38 (Heritage Line) proceeding through the village of Straffordville. It continues to Courtland, where it rejoins Highway 3. The route proceeds east along Highway 3 through Delhi, Simcoe, Jarvis and Cayuga. At Dunnville, the route splits from Highway 3 and follows County Road 3 (Lakeshore Road) through the tiny communities of Stromness, Lowbanks, Long Beach and Camelot Beach, before rejoining Highway 3 near Wainfleet. It proceeds east along Highway 3, terminating at the Niagara River in Fort Erie.

The actual 19th century settlement road began in Amherstburg and ended in Canborough, north of Dunnville, where existing settlement roads provided a route to Fort Erie and Niagara Falls.

Terry Fox Courage Highway

The Terry Fox Courage Highway was designated on July 30, 1981 in honour of Terry Fox, whose Marathon of Hope reached as far as Thunder Bay and who died a month prior. The route begins there and follows Highway 11 and Highway 17 for  to Nipigon.
It travels northeast along the shore of Lake Superior, and also forms part of the Lake Superior Circle Tour.

The route is well signed throughout its length.

Voyageur Route
The Voyageur Route crosses Ontario, starting at the Manitoba border on Highway 17. It passes through Kenora and continues to Highway 71. It turns south, following Highway 71 for its entire length to Highway 11 between Barwick and Emo. It follows Highway 11 to Shabaqua Corners, Ontario, where it rejoins Highway 17. From there, the route continues east through Thunder Bay, over Lake Superior and Lake Huron to Sudbury and onward to Arnprior. The route ends where Highway 17 transitions to Highway 417.  This route may no longer be signed, particularly on parts east of Pembroke, Ontario and in Northwestern Ontario.

The route also shares much of its routing with the Frontier Route, Great River Road, and Heritage Highway. The voyageurs were ordinary workman of the fur trade.

Welland Canal Route
The Welland Canal Route is designated along provincial highways and Regional Roads in Niagara Region along the Welland Canal.

The trail starts at the Queen Elizabeth Way and Highway 406 interchange in St. Catharines, traveling south to Highway 58 in Thorold. The Welland Canal Route travels under the canal, following Highway 58 to the intersection of Highway 20, Niagara Regional Road 82 (Allanport Road), and Niagara Regional Road 20 (Canboro Road). The route turns onto Canboro Road, crossing back over the Canal towards Highway 406. It then turns south along Highway 406 to Main Street in Welland, where it turns east and passes beneath the canal again. It follows Highway 140 south to Highway 58A, which it follows beneath the canal for the final time. The route turns south at Highway 58 and travels south Niagara Regional Road 3, formerly part of nearby Highway 3 in Port Colborne.

Wine Route

The Wine Route is signed in several different segments in Southern Ontario, ranging from Essex County, to the Niagara region, and to the northern shore of Lake Ontario. It is still signed to this day, and promoted in newspapers and other media.

The Wine Route starts in Windsor, Ontario, and travels down Essex County Road 20, formerly Highway 18, through LaSalle, Ontario and Amherstburg, Ontario. It continues through Harrow, Ontario, before branching off to the ferry docks in Kingsville, Ontario, serving Pelee Island's Pelee Island Winery via a ferry crossing. The trail continues on Pelee Island, and along County Road 20 on the mainland; both meet in Leamington, Ontario at the intersection of Seacliffe Drive and Erie Street, formerly part of Highway 77.

The wine route designation continues, unsigned, north to and along Highway 77 to Highway 401. From there it travels east to Highway 403 in Woodstock, Ontario, which it continues along to Hamilton, Ontario and the rest of the Niagara Peninsula.

Through the Niagara Region, the route is designated as the Niagara Wine Route, and while well-signed, exists in the form of loops and spurs connecting the various wineries to the communities of the region. The trunk route follows Niagara Regional Road 81, formerly Highway 8 from Grimsby eastward, where in western St. Catharines it diverges into two primary routes.

The first route travels north along Regional Road 34, then turns east, following the shore of Lake Ontario along Regional Road 87 and passing through Port Dalhousie and many of the wineries along the lakeshore. The other route passes along the edge of the Niagara Escarpment and through Niagara-on-the-Lake along Regional Roads 69, 100 and 55. A spur along Fourth Avenue and Ontario Street connects wineries in the west-end of the city and Downtown St. Catharines to the northern route, while another spur crosses through central Niagara-on-the-Lake and the community of Virgil, connecting both routes to the Niagara Parkway. The primary routes reconvene in the Olde Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake where Regional Roads 89 and 55 meet, not far from the mouth of the Niagara River.

A wine route also exists along Highways 33, Highway 62 and Highway 49 in Prince Edward County.

Newer signs are purely dark blue with white grapes, with the text "Wine Route" written below. These new signs are seen throughout Niagara Region and Prince Edward County.

Rideau Heritage Route
The Rideau Heritage Route (français: Circuit patrimonial Rideau) links Ottawa with Kingston via Smiths Falls and Perth.  The route is found in Eastern Ontario, along the oldest continuously operated canal in North America. The locks work today much as they did when first opened in 1832. They are a National Historic Site of Canada and a UNESCO world heritage site.

Home India News General News NCERT says it can't back textbook claim on Mughals rebuilding war-torn temples, sparks row
In a reply to an RTI query, the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has stated that it has no evidence on the excerpts in history textbooks which state that Mughal emperors had rebuilt the destroyed temples.
Page 234 of the class 12 NCERT textbook titled 'Themes of Indian History (Part 2)' says, "All Mughal Emperors gave grants to support the maintenance of places of worship. Even when temples were destroyed during the wars, grants were later issued for their repairs - as we know from the reigns of Shah Jahan and Aurangzeb."
Page 234 of the NCERT textbook
The RTI query was filed by Shivank Verma who sought the source from which NCERT arrived at the conclusion that the Mughal Emperors rebuilt the temples destroyed in wars. The RTI application also asked to provide the number of temples that were repaired by Aurangzeb and Shah Jahan.
In response to both the questions raised by Shivank Verma, the NCERT said that it has nothing to corroborate the claim as this information is not available on the files of the department.
With the revelations of the distortions in the NCERT textbook, various organisations have now been invited to depose on textbook reforms and suggest the removal of distorted information.

'History was changed and people misguide'
Speaking on the revelation, BJP leader Dr. Nirmal Singh has said, "The claims of Mughal Emperors rebuilding temples after destruction is a figment of the imagination of the psuedo secular historians or the historians having affiliation with the Leftists or the Congress. Because there is no such evidence."
"The claim that temples were destroyed during wars is wrong. It was a part of the Jihadi mindset of converting India into Islam," he added.
Reacting to the RTI revelation, former Deputy CM of Jammu and Kashmir Kavinder Gupta said, "One thing is obvious, that there has been a conspiracy in the history which has been taught to us since independence. History was changed and people have been misguided."

Q: My files from other git branch are added to my newly checked out branch I have been working with git for quite some time and mostly I use GUI(IntelliJ Idea) for all my staging, commiting and pushing of the code to the remote repo.
But when I try to use command line commands this problem persists My files from other git branch are added to my newly checked out branch.
Can anyone helpme out on this!!
Thanks in Advance!
I tried to switch branches to work on other files which weren't supposed to be my current branch.But as soon as I checkout from current branch to new branch some files are being added to newly checked out branch.To solve this I usually delete the newly added files!!

A: As long as the files (tracked or untracked) are not committed, if you are able to successfully checkout a different branch, untracked files or tracked files with changes will go along with you when you switch.... it's a feature, not a bug.
If you have modified tracked files and you ask git to checkout a different branch, git will only allow you to checkout if the modified untracked files are the same between HEAD and the place where you want to go (checkout ends up with the files as you had them in the working tree... which means they will show up as being modified after the checkout). If that is not the case (files are not the same between HEAD and where you want to go), checkout fails (unless you run with -f in which case you will lose the changes on those files).

Atlanta based quick-serve burger joint Cheeseburger Bobby's has closed its location in the Roswell-Wieuca shopping center on Roswell Road in Buckhead. The restaurant, which opened in 2013, replaced FIVE GUYS in the 2,499 square foot space. Local sources indicate the restaurant did not provide advance warning of its closure, but by Monday the windows were covered in brown paper and a notice confirming the closure was posted.
"We want to thank everyone for allowing us to be part of your community for the last 5 years. Unfortunately, we have decided not to renew our lease."
Cheeseburger Bobby's is the second quick-serve burger joint to close in the area recently, following the closure of Burger 21 in Chastain Square last July. The former Burger 21 space is now occupied by Pho Dai Viet, a Vietnamese restaurant with other locations around metro Atlanta.
Another Cheeseburger Bobby's that opened shortly after the Buckhead location, remains in business at 5975 Roswell Road in Sandy Springs, in the same center as The Flying Biscuit Cafe, Kaiser's Chophouse, and JINYA ramen, among others.
In addition to the Sandy Springs location, there are a dozen other Cheeseburger Bobby's spread across Georgia from Kennesaw and Peachtree Corners to Cartersville and Hiram.
Are you surprised that Cheeseburger Bobby's closed? Who do you think offers the best burger for under $10 in Atlanta? What would you like to see open in place of Cheeseburger Bobby's in Buckhead?
Totally not surprised they closed. I'm just surprised they lasted this long. The burgers taste like a frozen puck.
I guess that's your favorite phrase?
@ 11:38 PM Why don't you get off the Internet and support these businesses so they don't go Bust In Buckhead? As the old saying goes ... Get A Life!
Oh look, a clown with too much time on his/her hands! Shocking!
If you don't like the content posted or the words used, don't visit the site!
How would you like it if someone mocked your favorite phrase, "would you like fries with that?!"?
That's six uses of "goes bust" phrase over a decade. He's probably afraid to say "bombs in Buckhead" because the overly sensitive PC police might come calling.
As for Bobby's, we go to the one in Peachtree Corners every once in a while - it's not a bad burger. I prefer Village Burger at a similar price point. Has anyone tried all these burger places and crowned a favorite?
Eli - you be you baby!
Never understood the appeal of putting on your own lettuce, tomato and pickles after the previous guests had made a mess of things.
I'd like to see Five Guys back -- or, better yet, an actual neighborhood tavern selling a decent burger and a cold beer -- but I guess the rent there just doesn't work.
Wow, dude @ 11:38 Pm has a LOT of time on his hands!
Totally not surprised. It just wasn't that good and it wasn't a destination place to go to.
IS that the last one to goo? We need to take out more of these wannabe burger joints that just don't hit the mark. I hope BurgerFi is next.
Something new to market (for us) like an italian beef spot from chicago (Portillo's, Buena Beef, etc.). Or Salata, Gusto, Feed Fried Chicken, Grindhouse.
The place has ranch dressing in a pump. Ya'll are crazy if that ain't good!
Bring back the Brandy House!
Went to go try Salata at East Cobb after hearing about it and it just looked too scary and empty to go in for dinner. Maybe it does better at lunch. Tried feed at the Braves stadium and it was terrible, might as well get Zaxby's. Can't stand Bobby's. They are just plain old gross. The meat doesnt taste good and I dont want to put picked over toppings on my burger. Was a fan of Five Guys when they were new, but now there are so many better burger places for the price. I find Five Guys so blah like Burger 21. Would much rather have any of the other burger places like Farm burger, Yeah burger, Grindhouse or Burgerfi. They all serve all natural.
Try Bad Daddy Burger in new Parkview at Chamblee. Best burger out there.
I haven't tried the Chamblee Big Daddy's, but I tried the Smyrna one. I was pretty excited about it as it has a big menu that looks great. We all tried different burgers and I couldn't finish mine because it was so greasy and I didn't even want to take it home. I felt sick afterwards. Two tables near us also left their food. Maybe their sandwiche and other items are better. Steer clear of the fries while you are at it.
Didn't eat at the Chamblee one but ate at the Smyrna one. Was pretty excited about it because the menu looked good. We all got burgers. I couldnt eat mine it was so greasy with no special flavor. As a side note, the add on's add up quickly.. Made me feel sick and I didnt even want to bring it home. The couple of tables around us left their food also. Maybe the sandwiches are better. Steer clear of the fries also. We won't be back. It is like an Applebee's or Chillis. Good for one try.
The burger was greasy? Tell me more.

Want to pack your summer full of nutritious veggies? This butternut squash and lentil salad is packed with protein, and vegetables filled with all the good stuff your bikini body needs.
I grew up eating lentils once a year as part of the Czech New Years tradition, for good luck. What I needed, at 12, was good luck in not yacking them back up again. 12 year olds and lentils don't mix. 12 year olds mix with chocolate, white bread and fruit roll ups. Thank goodness that has all changed – in no small thanks to my former-farmer-turned-RN husband, Ben! Oh, did I mention he passed his last nursing school final this week? HE DID!
Anyway. Growing up on the Palouse – his home and my spirit home – lentils are a part of your upbringing. The Palouse is the lentil capital of the world and back in the 90's produced over 85% of the world's lentils. Neato burrito right? Okay, maybe for us statistics freaks it is.
But I'm a convert and have been loving lentils ever since Ben came into my life. My favorite way is to add them to salads, just like this one. You will love it! I ate it for three days straight.
This recipe originally comes from the Canadian Lentils. We lentil lovers don't care where the lentils hail from as long as they're happy lentils.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat and spread the squash out. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss the squash to make sure it is evenly coated in oil. Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until a fork goes through it smoothly. Remove from oven and let cool. slightly.
While the squash is roasting, prepare the lentils. If using dry lentils, rinse with water in a collander and pour into a large sauce pan. For approximately 1 cup dry lentils, use 2 1/2 cups water. Bring them to a boil and then reduce heat to a low simmer. Cover and let simmer until soft - approximately 30 minutes. Drain throughly and set aside.
Toss the warm roasted squash with the lentils, cashews, and herbed crumbled goat cheese. Drizzle with peanut sauce and top with chopped cilantro. Serve warm or cold. Devour.
Dude, I also agree that my inner 12 year-old self would rather have a fruit roll up instead of lentils. Thank goodness our taste buds change! And hooray for Ben!
This looks fabulous! I need more lentils in my life.
I didn't grow up with lentils and discovered them in my adult life, so of course I think they are cool!
And congrats to your husband.
We love butternut squash and this salad look AMAZING!!
On my must-try list! So gorgeous!
Mmm this salad is a dream!
Congrats to da man! That is wonderful!!
I never had lentils as a kid, but I love them now. I'm always looking for recipes with them and this looks like a great combo. Congrats to Ben!

Crist: Rubio Won't Return My Phone Call About Health Care
David Rutz - May 9, 2017 12:48 PM
Rep. Charlie Crist (D., Fla.) complained Tuesday that former opponent Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.) hasn't returned his phone call about health care legislation.
The Senate is in the process of writing its own health care bill after the Republican-led House narrowly passed the American Health Care Act last week, which repeals major facets of Obamacare, also known as the Affordable Care Act.
Crist, like every other Democrat in the House, voted against the bill and blasted it during his interview on MSNBC. Host Chris Jansing asked Crist if he had spoken to Rubio, who he ran against in 2010 for the Senate, about what could be done to make the bill more "palatable" to Democrats.
"Well, what can be done is the right thing, just to be plain and simple about it," Crist said. "The right thing is to provide health care for the American people."
Crist said he had conducted conversations with senators to "right the wrong" House Republicans did with the AHCA, and it was was on the other chamber to get it right.
"What's Senator Rubio telling you, congressman?" Jansing asked.
"Nothing yet," Crist said. "I'm looking forward to getting my call returned. In the meantime, I'll be patient, because it's a virtue."
Both Rubio and Crist ran for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate in Florida in 2010, but Crist, the state's former governor, eventually dropped out and ran as an independent. Rubio then crushed him in the general election, winning 48.9 percent of the vote to Crist's 29.7 percent.
Crist eventually joined the Democratic Party in 2012, ran unsuccessfully for governor of Florida in 2014, and then was elected to the House of Representatives in 2016.

This NFL season was unique in many ways. Throughout the season, COVID-19 threatened to derail the season. Many teams suffered outbreaks causing games to be rescheduled. Nonetheless all 256 games were still able to happen. Another thing that made this season unique was the introduction of a new playoff format. After previously having a six team playoff format with two teams having a first round bye, the NFL expanded its format to seven teams with only one of them having a first round bye. This caused the final weeks of the regular season to be very crucial with a handful of teams playing for a playoff spot, better seeding, or a first round bye. Here are the fourteen teams that are left standing.
AFC:
1. Kansas City Chiefs: Following their Super Bowl title last February, the Chiefs have looked as good as they are last year if not better. With an offense that was healthier than last year, Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce once again put up ridiculous numbers. In addition, they also have an improved running game led by rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire. The defense led by Chris Jones and Tyrann Mathieu has also continued to make life difficult for opponents dating back to the end of last season. For the cherry on top, the Chiefs have home field advantage locked up for the playoffs, making their chance to repeat more likely.
2. Buffalo Bills: After a surprise 10-6 season that put them in the playoffs as a Wild Card, the Bills have only gotten better. The defense, which was a big reason why they got in last year, didn't have the same kind of year, but were still a good unit. It was the offense however, that was their main strength. With career years from third year quarterback Josh Allen as well as the newly acquired Stefon Diggs, the offense was one of the best in football. Under Sean McDermott, he and his coaching staff are hungry for a playoff win after losing in their previous trips.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers: There was a time where the Steelers were undefeated for the first 11 games of the season. Ben Rothlesberger was enjoying a resurgent year. His receivers of JuJu Smith-Schuster, Chase Claypool, and Diontae Johnson were wrecking havoc in secondary. The defense, led by sack leader T.J. Watt and Minkah Fitzpatrick was dominating opponents. However, this team is sputtering into the playoffs with a 1-4 record. If there's any time for them to recapture their magic, now is the time.
4. Tennessee Titans: They are another team entering the playoffs riding a potent offense. While the passing game led by Ryan Tannehill along with A.J. Brown has been very effective, it's their running game that has really been stellar. Derrick Henry became the eighth running back in NFL history as well as the second Titan to top the historic mark of 2,000 rushing yards. Like last year, this team is primed for a deep playoff run.
5. Baltimore Ravens: After a 14-2 season, many expected the Ravens to win the Super Bowl. But with five games left, they appeared to have no shot at even getting to the playoffs. After that, they finally started to show shades of last year winning out to get to the playoffs at 11-5. With Lamar Jackson looking like his MVP self, the offense has been very efficent. The defense with a well balanced mix of young players and veterans has had a knack for takeaways all season.
6. Cleveland Browns: After 18 painful years of missing the playoffs, it's only fitting that in 2020, the Browns were finally able to break through. With a strong running game led by Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt along with a defense led by Myles Garrett, they rode two stretches of four game winning streaks which was enough to earn them a playoff spot. However, there are questions surrounding the passing game with Baker Mayfield, and teams will be willing to led Mayfield beat them.
7. Indianapolis Colts: They are the first AFC team to benefit from the new playoff system. Riding a stingy defense with Darius Leonard and DeForest Buckner, the Colts appeared to have a playoff spot locked in going into their game against the Steelers. But after blowing a 17 point lead, they needed luck to get in the playoffs with a Dolphins loss and a win. Both scenarios happened, allowing the Colts to return to the playoffs. With Philip Rivers likely nearing retirement, this will be a chance to send him into the sunset with a long-awaited championship.
1. Green Bay Packers: This year, Green Bay showed that last season's 13-3 record wasn't a fluke. If anything, they've looked better. Aaron Rodgers put up one of his best seasons yet throwing for an absurd 48 touchdowns and only five interceptions. Davante Adams had his own specular season with 118 receptions, over 1,300 yards, and 18 touchdowns. The run game and defense once again complemented their offense. With the no. 1 seed, the Packers will have their long time home Lambeau Field, as a bonus to their advantage.
2. New Orleans Saints: Just like last year, the resilience of this team was on full display. Despite a 1-2 start with age noticeably catching up to Drew Brees and wide receiver Michael Thomas missing nine games, the Saints were still able to rally with a 12-4 record. Sean Payton deserves a ton of credit for fielding an offense that finished fifth thanks to the skills of running back Alvin Kamara. The defense was also a well balanced unit finishing in the same ranking. With a healthy roster and a chip on their shoulder from previous heartbreaks, this team will be ready.
3. Seattle Seahawks: The Seahawks have many reasons to feel confident going into the playoffs. They started off 5-0 due to the amazing play of Russell Wilson. Later on in the season, they did slump going 3-4 in their next seven games, but rallied to close out the season with four straight wins. The catalyst of this team is Russell Wilson without question. Whether it's perfectly placing a ball to D.K. Metcalf or completing a pass to Tyler Lockett scrambling out of the pocket, he has found ways to get it done and that must continue.
4. Washington Football Team: When Washington changed its name from the Redskins to the Football Team, it seemed like it was a sign of how laughable this team was going to be on the field. However, they weren't focused on all the off-field opinions. Rallying around coach Ron Rivera's defeat of cancer and Alex Smith's comeback from a brutal leg injury the Football Team finished 7-9 which was enough to make the playoffs.
5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Tom Brady still has Buccanneers fans wondering how they got him, but here they are in the playoffs for the first time since 2007. While the team did have a streaky season, they were more than good enough to make the playoffs. Brady enjoyed the luxury of having big-time weapons at his side once again and the defense make significant strides after a solid finish last year. Whether they can compete against the top teams still remains a question.
6. Los Angeles Rams: After a season in which they missed the playoffs following a Super Bowl appearance, expectations were low for the Rams entering this season. This time, they overachieved going 10-6. The offense enjoyed a resurgent year thanks to Jared Goff along with wide receivers Robert Woods and Cupper Kupp. With Aaron Donald dominating backfields and Jalen Ramsey locking up receivers the defense also enjoyed a bounce back year. The big question is how can the Rams compete against non NFC East teams in which they went 6-6 against in the regular season.
7. Chicago Bears: Out of all the playoff teams, this is probably the worst one. After a 5-1 start, they dropped six straight before reeling off 3 wins in their next four games while receiving help from the Arizona Cardinals losing their last two games. Led by pass rusher Khalil Mack, their defense is a tough unit to play against but questions remain about the offense. Despite having two solid skill players in David Montgomery and Allen Robinson.

Ahead of its fall programming presentation to advertisers in the afternoon, Fox announced Monday that the 15th season of American Idol, which will begin in January 2016, will be the last.
Ratings for Idol have slid precipitously over the last few seasons, but in the words of Joe Adalian at Vulture, "Idol was, for much of its run, the most dominant show on television — by a mile." It's hard to remember now, but there was a time when putting up a show against Idol was close to announcement that it was unimportant to whatever network was airing it. It was the broadcast television version of a stomping monster that took out small cities.
It seemed at one time like Idol was a show that would ebb and flow but never die, like Saturday Night Live. But Fox has other plans and other priorities, there's competition from other performance shows and other competition shows, and, as it turns out, very few things are Saturday Night Live.
So now, Ryan Seacrest will be the man who only seems to have 99 jobs. We'll have much, much more about fall schedules as this week of TV news progresses.

Spanish Teacher Placed on Leave After Students Smash Trump Piñata for Cinco de Mayo
by Alberto Luperon | 4:59 pm, May 8th, 2017
A high school teacher is on leave after his Spanish class hit a piñata featuring the face of President Donald Trump during Cinco de Mayo. It happened at Roosevelt High School in Johnstown, Colorado.
The mother of one of students wrote about this on Facebook, saying she was outraged even though she didn't vote for the POTUS.
"The Spanish teacher allowed students to destroy a piñata that had Trump's face on it (unclear if it was his idea or a student driven idea, but regardless it was allowed)," said Lesley Hollywood on Friday. She followed up with an update: according to students, the piñata's other side featured Mexico's president Enrique Peña Nieto.
Hollywood promised to take it to the school, and regardless of who told them, they learned about it. From their statement issued Saturday by the Weld RE-5J School District:
The teacher in charge of this class has been placed on paid administrative leave pending an investigation by the school district that will commence on Monday, May 8.
Dr. Martin Foster, Superintendent, stated, "This was an incredibly disrespectful act that does not reflect the values of Roosevelt High School or the school district."
In other recent news, officials cancelled classes and after-school programs on Monday after being aware of a potential threat to the school. The source, motive, and credibility of this remains unclear, so we've reached out to the school for comment.

La decepció és un sentiment negatiu que es produeix quan no s'acompleixen les expectatives sobre un afer o persona. Segons Robert Plutchik es forma en unir dues emocions primàries: la sorpresa i la pena. La decepció, si perdura en el temps, pot esdevenir una frustració o ser un detonant de la depressió, ja que dificulta la projecció d'expectatives positives (l'esperança) que és un al·licient per a l'acció i l'equilibri psíquic.

La decepció és subjectiva perquè depèn del resultat esperat d'un esdeveniment, per tant un mateix fet pot resultar decebedor per a una persona i no per a una altra (per exemple un aprovat a un examen pot ser considerat un èxit per un alumne i una decepció per un altre que esperava millor nota).

Quan la decepció afecta les persones, es canvia la imatge mental que es tenia d'elles, sobretot si afecta a trets fonamentals de la personalitat i pot produir la ruptura de la relació.

MPs Are Furious Over The 'Sorry Saga' Of Crunch Vote - Which Everyone Thought Was About The European Arrest Warrant
Jessica Elgot— The Huffington Post UK/PA
10/11/2014 04:22pm GMT | Updated November 11, 2014
The Government has been accused of orchestrating a "shambles" over a controversial vote on the European Arrest Warrant - which turned out not to be a vote on that measure at all.
House of Commons speaker John Bercow branded the vote a "sorry saga" after bitter clashes and confusion over what exactly the parliamentary motion covered.
On Monday night, the Government eventually won overwhelming backing for opting into a package of EU justice and home affairs measures after wrangling over the failure to call a vote specifically on the European Arrest Warrant.
Fearing a mass rebellion, prime minister David Cameron raced back to the Commons from the Lord Mayor's Banquet at Mansion House, dressed in white tie, in order to vote.
Cameron - dressed in white tie - raced back from the banquet where he was giving a speech
Debate on the Government motion - a draft of the Criminal Justice and Data Protection (Protocol No 36) Regulation - was halted earlier this evening after shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper sensationally called the "question be not now put".
The procedural device called a halt to debate was aimed at postponing debate to another day, with Cooper demanding Home Secretary Theresa May come back to the Commons tomorrow for a vote covering the full package of measures. May accused the Labour spokeswoman of "playing politics" with the issue.
Cooper's move failed but was still enough to curtail debate by forcing the main vote to take place almost two hours early, despite filibustering from Tory MPs.
The highly unorthodox scenes were a final act to a dramatic series of major rows in the Commons chamber.
The clashes blew up with little warning after it was confirmed that the motion provided regulations for 11 of 35 measures which the Government plans to opt in to. But the 11 do not include the controversial EAW, and speaker John Bercow had ruled repeatedly the vote is not on the measure, despite the Commons being promised such a vote.
But the government managed to see off the Labour attempt to derail the vote, though it was close. A business of the House motion was passed 251 to 242 - a dramatic slashing of the Government's normally comfortable working majority to just nine.
Tuesday's Times front page described Cameron as being pushed "to the brink" by the risk of rebellion over the vote, while the i reported "fury" over home secretary Theresa May's apparent refusal to fulfill her commitment to a vote on the EAW.
Tuesday's front pages
Bercow had blasted the Government for trying to slip out of a vote on the EAW in a move that he said would leave the public "contemptuous" of ministers.
Home Secretary Theresa May had said: "The vote on the next motion will be a vote on the regulations, which includes within it those measures a package of 35 we wish to opt back into which require to be transposed into UK legislation.
"But the Government is clear we will be bound by that vote and if this House chooses not to transpose those measures and votes against the regulation, then it will be voting against the Government opting into all of the measures, including the European Arrest Warrant."
Bercow accused May of failing to fulfill her commitment. Describing the confusion as a "sorry saga", Bercow contradicted May's claims that tonight's debate and vote would be on all 35 measures including the arrest warrant.
"I think most of us think a commitment made is a commitment that should be honoured and we should try to operate according to sensible standards rather than trying to slip things through through some sort of artifice," he said.
The Government has been accused of orchestrating a "shambles" over a controversial vote
"It may be the sort of thing that some people think is very clever, but people outside of the House expect straightforward dealing and they are frankly contemptuous, and I use the word advisedly, contemptuous of what is not straight dealing. Let's try to learn from this experience and do better."
In her own remarks, Cooper described the situation as a "shambles" and "complete chaos" and called on the Government to withdraw the motion and suspend the Commons before bringing forward a different set of proposals to vote on.
"You have effectively said ministers are just going to make it up because the Speaker has been very clear that this does not include a vote on the EAW, you are just going to reinterpret it in any way you choose," she said.
"That is an irresponsible way to treat the House. If you brought this back tomorrow with all 35 measures in we will support it. We will vote for it, then we will have no doubt about it, categorical support for all 35 measures. If you will not do so tomorrow then you are playing fast and loose with the criminal justice system and fast and loose with this Parliament and on that basis."
Tory manoeuvres over European Arrest Warrant mean we've spent 4 hours having a debate about having a debate instead of debating the issues
— Steve Reed MP (@SteveReedMP) November 10, 2014
I think - and I'm not making this up - that a cat could have done a better job over the #EAW than Theresa May did.
— Paul Bernal (@PaulbernalUK) November 10, 2014
It's simple. PM promised vote on EAW. He hasn't honoured his word. This Commons farce is Cameron's fault.
— Chris Bryant (@ChrisBryantMP) November 10, 2014
Watching an extraordinary debate in the @HouseofCommons. Hardly anyone seems to know what is going on.... Government has lost control.
— Jason Keen (@Jason_Keen) November 10, 2014
The Speaker told MPs he had spoken to "disinterested experts" and studied the motion before coming to the view that the vote was not on the EAW.
He indicated MPs may speak about the arrest warrant, adding these were "imperfectly configured circumstances" as he responded to points of order.
During the business motion debate, Tory Jacob Rees Mogg said: "We have whips scuttling around this House saying a vote will be taken tonight that is indicative of what Parliament thinks about the EAW. This is a procedural absurdity... the Government cannot conceivably decide that one vote is indicative of another vote."
Conservative Sir Richard Shepherd said the Government "seemed sly" as a result of the situation. He said: "Today we are confronted with a motion that is incomprehensible, an understand that seems sly, and is actually a means of trying to incline the public to believe otherwise than what is so. At the heart of this is a misconception about what this House represents... my over long time in this House of Commons has led me to understand the growth of executive arrogance is unsupportable."
European Scrutiny Committee chair Bill Cash described the situation as a trick that was "tainted with chicanery" and "completely unbelievable".
He said: "This is a disgraceful way of going about a very, very important matter. It is not the way this Parliament should be treated. It is completely unbelievable that she should have come to the House today and presumably tried to argue... that this is about the European Arrest Warrant when it clearly is not.
"The reason that it is being done in this fashion is to avoid having a real decision taken today as was promised to us by the Prime Minister only a few weeks ago. This is a travesty of our parliamentary proceedings."
He added: "It is fundamentally a lack of transparency and it is a lack of honesty in going around the issues which we need to deal with. I'm sorry that the Home Secretary is shaking her head when I say this because she knows perfectly well that this is a trick, it is an attempt to get round the reality of what is facing us."
Home Affairs Select Committee chair Keith Vaz said: "I share all the concerns of Cash. This is a shambolic attempt to get a vote on an issue that is of fundamental importance to the British people and I hope the motion will be withdrawn to give us an opportunity to be able to vote on these measures."
Conservative Philip Davies (Shipley) told May she appeared to be "making up" parliamentary procedure as she went along. He said: "You are talking about a package of measures but this isn't a package of measures it's things you have bundled up into a package."

Senate passes nondiscrimination law
In a vote that has been 17 years in the making, the United States Senate passed an anti-discrimination law that prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation. This gives employee rights to gay, lesbians, bisexual and transgender individuals for the first time. The vote passed 34 to 32, with 10 Republicans joining with Democrats on the measure.
Many people already thought such a measure for protection was already in place, so Harry Reid of Nevada is calling on the House of Representatives to bring the bill to the floor and pass it. However, the Speaker has been vehemently opposed to the bill and it is unknown whether he will allow the vote or not.
Those who are opposed to the law have been relatively quiet in their opposition. The objections are mainly religiously based; some feel religious freedoms are at risk even with the large exemptions that are included in the bill that protect religious institutions. The bill has been modified in an attempt to mollify some Republicans, including a provision that states cannot retaliate against religious institutions that decline to comply with the law. In other words, their tax-exempt status is safe, as is their grant money, certifications and licenses.
Churches, mosques and synagogues are exempt from the law, as are religiously-affiliated schools and stores. Only those establishments that do not have a solidly religious base will have to abide by the law.
No one should have to endure discrimination in the workplace. For anyone who feels they are not being treated fairly or in a respectful manner, speaking to a legal representative about the issue can help a person decide if some sort of legal action should pursued. Legal professionals experienced in the area of workplace discrimination can explain the process and help a person make an informed decision.

Анна Шарлотта Лотарингская (, ; 17 марта 1714, Люневиль — 7 ноября 1773, Монс) — аббатиса Ремиремонта и Сен-Водру в Монсе, коадъютор аббатства Эссен и Торна.

Биография
Родилась 17 марта 1714 года во дворце города Люневиль. Была последним, тринадцатым ребёнком в семье Леопольда I, герцога Лотарингии и Елизаветы Шарлотты Бурбон-Орлеанской. В 1719 году Люневильский дворец был сильно повреждён в результате пожара. С семи лет воспитывалась в семье Бурбонов у своей бабушки — вдовствующей герцогини Орлеана, принцессы Елизаветы Шарлотты Пфальцской.

В 1725 году отец Анны Шарлотты, Леопольд I, предпринял попытку выдать дочь замуж за короля Франции Людовика XV, которому на тот момент было всего  Но тогдашний премьер-министр, принц крови Конде, яростно сопротивлялся этому союзу. Он настоял на женитьбе Людовика XV на дочери бывшего польского короля — Марии Лещинской. Родители Анны Шарлотты были оскорблены тем, что королевой стала полька, а не француженка.

В 1726 году овдовел Людовик де Бурбон герцог Орлеанский — его жена умерла вскоре после родов. Семья Анны Шарлоты снова пыталась выдать дочь за герцога, но герцог отказался от всех предложений женитьбы, последнее из которых было в 1729 году, когда Анне было  В этом же году умер её отец, и Анна Шарлотта поехала со своей матерью, вдовствующей герцогиней Орлеана в Вену. Несмотря на предложения о браке, Анна не вышла замуж и стала настоятельницей престижного Ремирмонского аббатства (10 мая 1738 года).

В 1744 году умерла её мать — вдовствующая герцогиня Лотарингская Елизавета Шарлотта Бурбон-Орлеанская — и Анна Шарлотта снова отправилась в Вену, откуда вместе с императорской семьёй ездила на коронацию своего брата Франца во Франкфурте 4 октября 1745 года, в день Святого Франциска. Настоятельнице Ремирмонского аббатства на это время были предоставлены апартаменты во дворце Шёнбрунн.

В 1754 году Анна Шарлотта стала в Бельгии светской настоятельницей благородных девиц в Сен-Водру в Монсе. В Брюсселе она пользовалась большим влиянием в обществе. В 1763 году она была назначена в качестве коадъютора аббатства Эссен и Торна.

С апреля по сентябрь 1770 года Анна Шарлотта последний раз находилась в Вене.

Умерла 7 ноября 1773 года в Монсе, ныне Бельгия. Была похоронена в Герцогском склепе церкви кордельеров в Нанси.

Fans not only watch the films of their favourite actors but also like to keep a check on their personal lives. Naturally, fans of Kannada-Telugu actress Rashmika Mandanna were shocked to hear that she has called off her engagement with fellow Kannada actor Rakshit Shetty!
As per a report in Deccan Chronicle, Rashmika Mandanna called off her engagement with Rakshit Shetty over compatibility issues between their families. A source close to the family confirmed the news stating that the actress has broken all ties with her former fiancé. This source also claims that Rashmika is not happy with the unfortunate turn of the events but is trying to deal with it maturely.
As per sources, things started turning sour between the star couple when Rashmika Mandanna started getting more Telugu projects post her engagement and she chose to give the priority. Hence ruffling the feathers of her former fiancé Rakshit Shetty and his family.
"Rashmika made the decision after consulting with her parents, family elders and friends. It was a tough decision to make, but she is showing a lot of character in overcoming this personal and emotional setback. She has been receiving some exciting offers in Telugu and Kannada, and she wants to cement her place in both the industries," said this close source.
So Rashmika Mandanna chose to end her engagement as she is not ready to settle down so soon in her career when she is getting brilliant projects. Reportedly, Rashmika will soon start shooting for Bharat Kamma directed 'Dear Comrade' in which she will be seen in a role of a cricketer.
As for Rakshit Shetty, the Kannada actor has deactivated his social media accounts further fuelling the fire that his engagement broke due to some other reasons.
Kannada actor Kichcha Sudeepa came forward giving moral support for both of them and appreciated the maturity with which Rakshit has responded to the matter. "That's dignity n maturity Rakshith . Stay blessed my friend. ………………… Public personalities dsnt mean emotions need to be public too isn't it?? Everyone deserves a bit of space my frnzz,,n it isn't too mch one can ask for. . [sic]" he wrote on Twitter.
Other reports state that as Rashmika started getting more offers, the gap between the couple started deepening. However, the final nail in the coffin of their relationship were the bold scenes RashmikaMandanna shot for her film 'Geetha Govindam'.
Rashmika Mandanna and Rakshit Shetty got engaged in a grand ceremony held last year in July.
