Keolis wins contract for bus services linking Aarhus to two of Denmark's international airports
Keolis has been awarded an eight-year contract to operate bus services linking the city of Aarhus to two international airports. This new contract reinforces Keolis' presence in Denmark, where it operates Aarhus light rail, the country's first network, as well as buses. Keolis was awarded the country's second light rail network in November 2018. It also reinforces Keolis' expertise in public transport connections to airports thereby reducing the number of cars on the road and pollution
Keolis selected as preferred operator to operate a second light rail contract in Denmark
On 29 November, Keolis was selected by Odense Letbane to operate and maintain the new light rail network of Odense, which is now the second in Denmark. This 14.5 km-long network includes 26 stations and is planned to open by the end of 2020. This new project reinforces Keolis' presence in Denmark where it is currently the operator of the country's first light rail network (Aarhus) and so reinforces its position as an international leader in tram operations.

Engagements et actions du Groupe Keolis pour le respect de la loyauté des pratiques
Keolis has been commited since 2013 to a transparent and exemplary approach to business, founded on the respect of strict regulations and ethical standards. Whether it concerns the Group's relationship to public or private clients, suppliers, contractors or stakeholders, this commitment to fair business practices guides the daily actions of Group employees and is one of the key pillars of Keolis' social responsibility policy.
Ethics and compliance at the heart of Keolis' social responsibility
Like all businesses, Keolis wants to develop and win contracts in all its areas of activity, in France and abroad, while respecting the highest standards of business ethics. The Group is evolving in an increasingly competitive and regulated environment, and has therefore established strict principles and rules for itself regarding ethics and compliance, in accordance with its commitments to social responsibility.
Shared by its 58,300 collaborators around the world, this transparent and exemplary approach aims not only to satisfy Group legal obligations but more importantly, to allow the Group to act responsibly with its clients, suppliers and stakeholders in each country where it is present.
A concrete and demanding compliance programme, focused on three major areas
Since 2013, Keolis has been operating based on a compliance programme integrated into the Group's continuous improvement framework, Keolife, under the topic of fair business practices. Known as 'Konformité', this programme uses simple and practical terms to describe the right behaviour as well as what is forbidden, both by law and by the Group's ethical business standards. It enables each employee to adopt the right attitude on a daily basis, in order to prevent and manage risks they might be confronted with.
Konformité is structured around three main areas:
The strict respect of free and fair competition
The prevention of corruption and fraud
The protection of personal data
For each field of action, the Konformité programme specifies the fundamental principles to be respected, prohibited practices and daily check points.
A comprehensive programme to become fully compliant
The Konformité programme is also dedicated to providing training and other useful tools for Group employees.
A workstream composed of the Ethics & Compliance Committee that brings together representatives from all Group entities and a network of correspondants to encourage the adoption of good business ethics, a culture of compliance and the achievement of programme benchmarks.
Training: an e-learning module on prevention and corruption; 'governance and business ethics' modules included in the induction programme for new employees, etc.
Practical and accessible information centered on two reference documents: the 'Keolis Group ethical guide to business affairs' and the 'Code of conduct for the prevention of corruption and conflicts of interest'. These are complemented by reference guides dedicated to the three key areas of the programme. Suppliers and commercial partners (link at http://www.keolis.com/fr/espace-fournisseur) are also welcome to refer to the 'Commercial partner relationship guide'.
A professional whistleblowing system is also set up for employees and permanent and short-term employees: Keolis Ethic Line
Guide for ethical business conduct - Keolis brochure (pdf) (680.61 Ko)
Keolis' 58,300 employees are all responsible for our actions with stakeholders, which make up the environment in which they carry out their work. Accepting this responsibility is part of the honour of being in the public service sector and being able to serve the public.

Posted On: September 25th, 2010 Filed Under: Furnace 1 Comment on What is a modulating furnace?
Did you ever notice that when your furnace reaches its set temperature and shuts off, there are pockets in the room that are still cold? Pretty soon, you're pulling the throw over you until the heat snaps back on again. A modulating furnace can counter that and stabilize the comfort and heat you feel.
The National Association of Homebuilders likens a standard furnace to stop & go traffic, with its inefficient use of energy for your car and frustration for you. Modulating furnace performance is more like highway driving, where you are cruising along, making slight operating adjustments while achieving maximum efficiency. The modulating furnace operates with finesse to reduce temperature fluctuations, providing consistent indoor temperature, quiet operation, and an annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) up to 98%. That means fuel is used more efficiently, reducing your energy cost. Plus, the home can be more easily and efficiently kept in the perfect comfort zone.
Typically this type of gas furnace, such as Bryant's Evolution series, combines a modulating gas valve with a variable-speed blower. The furnace then adjusts automatically between 35% and 100% of total capacity, in small increments, continuously regulating the amount of fuel burned according to the thermostat setting. This maintains the temperature to within a ½ degree of your thermostat's set point. For comparison, you might experience a 6-10 degree swing in temperature vs set point between the cycles of a standard furnace.
The heating mode starts with the gas at 100% and the fan at 0%, the valve reducing and the blower increasing until maximum efficiency is reached. The fan then runs continuously, ramping up or down depending upon air delivery requirements. Since the fan and burner almost never run at full capacity and energy-robbing on/off cycling is eliminated, the unit is highly fuel-efficient.
High efficiency modulating furnaces might qualify for federal energy tax credits. Ask your Home Energy Specialist for more details. Schedule a free estimate today if you're tired of wasting energy and being uncomfortable.

A 2020-as Junior Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál volt a tizennyolcadik Junior Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál, melyet sorozatban másodjára Lengyelországban rendeztek meg, miután a 2019-es Junior Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál a lengyel Viki Gabor győzelmével zárult, aki a Superhero című dalát adta elő Gliwicében. Ez volt az első alkalom, hogy ugyanaz az ország nyerte meg kétszer egymás után a versenyt, valamint hogy a házigazda ország győzött. A dalfesztivál történelmében ez volt az első olyan alkalom, hogy egymás után kétszer rendezi ugyanaz az ország a versenyt. A dalfesztivál Lengyelország fővárosában, Varsóban került megrendezésre, azonban a város nevét a hivatalos logóban nem tüntették fel. A pontos helyszín a TVP székház 5-ös stúdiója volt. A versenyre 2020. november 29-én került sor. Az Eurovíziós Dalfesztivállal ellenben itt nem az előző évi győztes rendez, hanem pályázni kell a rendezés jogára, azonban az előző év győztese előnyt élvez a rendezési jog megszerzésében.

12 ország erősítette meg a részvételét a dalfesztiválra, beleértve Németországot, mely első alkalommal vett részt. Albánia, Ausztrália, Észak-Macedónia, Írország, Olaszország, Örményország, Portugália és Wales azonban visszaléptek a versenytől.

A helyszín és a verseny
A 2019-es dalversenyt megelőzően a lengyel műsorsugárzó vezérigazgatója, Jacek Kurski azt nyilatkozta, ha Lengyelország ismét megnyeri a versenyt, akkor szándékukban áll a következőt is megrendezni. Lengyelország mellett a kazak műsorsugárzónál ezúttal is felmerült a dalverseny rendezésének kérdése.

2020. március 5-én vált hivatalossá, hogy ismét Lengyelországban rendezik meg a versenyt. A rendező város címére a krakkói Tauron Aréna volt a legesélyesebb, azonban a rendező várost, mely végül a főváros, Varsó lett, május 16-án jelentették be az elmaradt 2020-as Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál döntőjének tervezett napján rendezett, Eurovision: Europe Shine a Light című speciális műsorban. Ugyanekkor ismertették dalfesztivál hivatalos mottóját is, mely Move the World lett, ami magyarul azt jelenti, hogy Mozgasd a Világot!

A COVID–19-pandémiára való tekintettel, elővigyázatossági okokból a versenyt a korábbi gyakorlattal ellentétben ezúttal nem egy arénában vagy rendezvényközpontban, hanem egy alacsony befogadóképességű televízió-stúdióban rendezték meg, ahol a közönségben eredetileg csak a versenyzők hozzátartozói foglalhattak volna helyet, azonban 2020. szeptember 8-án kiderült, hogy az Európában újonnan bevezetett utazási korlátozások miatt minden ország versenyzője a saját országában adja elő produkcióját felvételről egy, az egyenlő esélyek érdekében egymáshoz közel hasonló látványvilággal és technológiai felszereltséggel rendelkező stúdióban, a varsói helyszínen pedig, a műsorvezetők és a meghívott előadók mellett csak a legszükségesebb stábtagok és egy alacsony létszámú közönség lesz jelen, az egészségügyi előírások betartása mellett. Ennek ellenére október 7-én kiderült, hogy bizonyos delegációk a varsói helyszínen veszik fel produkcióikat költséghatékonysági okokból. Nem utaztak a helyszínre a pontbejelentők sem, akik 2012 óta először saját országaikból, az Eurovíziós Dalfesztiválon alkalmazott körkapcsolással ismertették a szavazatokat.

A verseny pontos helyszínét 2020. október 8-án jelentették be: az eseménynek a lengyel közmédia, a TVP székházában található 5-ös stúdió adott otthont.

Kulcsok:

 Rendező város

Műsorvezetők
A szervezők 2020. október 7-én jelentették be a verseny házigazdáit. Sorozatban másodszor látta el a feladatot Ida Nowakowska-Herndon táncosnő-színésznő, ezúttal Małgorzata Tomaszewska televíziós műsorvezető és Rafał Brzozowski énekes-műsorvezető mellett. Brzozowski ezenkívül a 2017-es Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál lengyel nemzeti döntőjében versenyzőként is részt vett, valamint ugyanazon évben a Junior Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál lengyel válogatójának műsorvezetője, a 2019-es Eurovíziós Dalfesztiválon pedig a lengyel szakmai zsűri tagja is volt.

A résztvevők
Első alkalommal vett részt a versenyen Németország, mely így az Eurovíziós Dalfesztivál automatikus döntős Öt Nagy országa után utolsóként csatlakozott a mezőnyhöz (az Egyesült Királyság és Spanyolország a legelső, 2003-as, Franciaország a 2004-es, Olaszország pedig a 2014-es versenyen indult először). A német műsorsugárzó eredetileg részt vett volna az első két évben is, azonban mindkét alkalommal idő előtt visszalépett. Az ország a 2010-es években több versenyre is küldött megfigyelő delegációt, azonban egyik alkalommal sem szerepelt ténylegesen, emellett több alkalommal az interneten élőben is közvetítette a versenyt. Németország csatlakozásával 2006 óta első alkalommal hangzott el a német nyelv a dalfesztiválon.

A COVID–19-pandémia miatt bevezetett utazási korlátozásokra és a verseny megrendezése körül kialakult bizonytalanságra hivatkozva hét ország visszalépett a versenytől: Albánia, Ausztrália, Észak-Macedónia, Írország, Olaszország, Portugália és az Egyesült Királyság eddig egyedüliként önállóan versenyzőt küldő alkotó országa, Wales. Portugália eredetileg részt vett volna, azonban a szeptember 8-án közzétett résztvevői listán végül nem szerepelt. Annak ellenére, hogy Örményország előzetesen megerősítette a részvételi szándékát, november 5-én bejelentették, hogy visszalépésre kényszerülnek, mivel a műsorszolgáltató nem tudja folytatni a versenyre való előkészületeit a hadi törvények Örményországban történt bevezetése miatt, a Hegyi-Karabahban folyó katonai konfliktus következtében. Az örmény delegációvezető, David Tszerunján ugyanezen a napon bejelentette, hogy az országot Maléna képviselte volna a Why (magyarul: Miért?) című örmény-angol kevert nyelvű dallal.

Így összesen tizenkét ország alkotta a 2020-as verseny mezőnyét. Utoljára 2013-ban volt ugyanennyi résztvevője a versenynek.

A versenyzők közül a belarusz Arina Pehtereva korábban a 2018-as minszki versenyen ismertette Macedónia pontjait.

A versenyt megelőző időszak

Nemzeti válogatók
A versenyre nevező 12 ország közül 8 nemzeti döntő keretein belül, 4 belső kiválasztással, 1 a két módszer együttes alkalmazásával választotta ki indulóját. Eredetileg Örményország is belső kiválasztással nevezte volna meg az előadót és a dalt egyaránt.

Az indulók közül Grúzia, Hollandia, Kazahsztán, Lengyelország, Málta, Oroszország és Ukrajna apróbb változtatásokkal ugyanazt azt a nemzeti döntőt rendezte meg, mint a legutóbbi részvétele során.

1767 – Adresseavisen, Norway's longest running newspaper, is first published.
The newspaper was first published on 3 July 1767 as Kongelig allene privilegerede Trondheims Adresse-Contoirs Efterretninger, making it the oldest Norwegian newspaper still being published. The paper was founded as a classified advertising publication. The name of the newspaper was changed several times before its present name began to be used in 1927. Locally it is often referred to as Adressa. The newspaper is based in Trondheim and covers the areas of Trøndelag and Nordmøre.
1819 – The first savings bank in the US, The Bank for Savings in the city of New York, opens to the public.
The Bank for Savings in the City of New-York was incorporated on March 16, 1819. First publicly advertised as "A BANK FOR THE POOR," it was modeled after similar institutions in Europe; its stated purpose was to "effect a secure place of deposit for the earnings of the laboring part of the community: and at the same time to give them the benefit of an accumulation of interest." Among its founders and first directors were Thomas Eddy, William Bayard Jr., DeWitt Clinton, Archibald Gracie,Cadwallader D. Colden, John Pintard, Matthew Clarkson, Peter Augustus Jay and Brockholst Livingston. Although many credit Eddy with founding the institution, Bayard, who was also a director of the Bank of America founded by Alexander Hamilton, served as the bank's first president
1844 – The Great auk species become extinct when the last pair of birds is killed.
The last colony of great auks lived on Geirfuglasker (the "Great Auk Rock") off Iceland. This islet was a volcanic rock surrounded by cliffs that made it inaccessible to humans, but in 1830, the islet submerged after a volcanic eruption, and the birds moved to the nearby island of Eldey, which was accessible from a single side. When the colony initially was discovered in 1835, nearly fifty birds were present. Museums, desiring the skins of the great auk for preservation and display, quickly began collecting birds from the colony.[73] The last pair, found incubating an egg, was killed there on 3 June 1844, on request from a merchant who wanted specimens, with Jón Brandsson and Sigurður Ísleifsson strangling the adults and Ketill Ketilsson smashing the egg with his boot.
Great Auk specialist John Wolley interviewed the two men who killed the last birds,[75] and Sigurður described the act as follows
1886 – The New-York Tribune becomes the first newspaper to use a linotype machine, eliminating typesetting by hand.
The Linotype machine (/ˈlaɪnətaɪp/ LYNE-ə-type) is a "line casting" machine used in printing sold by the Mergenthaler Linotype Company and related companies. It was a hot metal typesetting system that cast blocks of metal type for individual uses. Linotype became one of the mainstay methods to set type, especially small-size body text, for newspapers, magazines and posters from the late 19th century to the 1970s and 1980s, when it was largely replaced by phototypesetting, offset lithography printing and computer typesetting. The name of the machine comes from the fact that it produces an entire line of metal type at once, hence a line-o'-type, a significant improvement over the previous industry standard, i.e., manual, letter-by-letter typesetting using a composing stick and drawers of letters.
1962 – Jackie Robinson becomes the first black baseball player to be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
In 1947, the Dodgers called Robinson up to the major leagues six days before the start of the season. With Eddie Stanky entrenched at second base for the Dodgers, Robinson played his initial major league season as a first baseman.[88] On April 15, Robinson made his major league debut at the relatively advanced age of 28 at Ebbets Field before a crowd of 26,623 spectators, more than 14,000 of whom were black. Although he failed to get a base hit, he walked and scored a run in the Dodgers' 5–3 victory. Robinson became the first player since 1880 to openly break the major league baseball color line. Black fans began flocking to see the Dodgers when they came to town, abandoning their Negro league teams.
Robinson's promotion met a generally positive, although mixed, reception among newspapers and white major league players. However, racial tension existed in the Dodger clubhouse.[131] Some Dodger players insinuated they would sit out rather than play alongside Robinson. The brewing mutiny ended when Dodgers management took a stand for Robinson. Manager Leo Durocher informed the team, "I do not care if the guy is yellow or black, or if he has stripes like a fuckin' zebra. I'm the manager of this team, and I say he plays. What's more, I say he can make us all rich. And if any of you cannot use the money, I will see that you are all traded."

Human Trafficking & Forced Prostitution
Human Trafficking - A Global Crime
Human trafficking is a multi-billion dollar business. The International Labor Organization (ILO) estimates that human trafficking generates around $150 billion annually. A large part comes from the sex industry.
You may choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know.
William Wilberforce
Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act. Action will delineate and define you.
Thomas Jefferson, 3rd U.S. President
150 Billion Annually
40000000 Victims Globally
2500000 New Victims Every Year
75 % Of Victims Are Women & Children
Human Trafficking - The Global Crime
According to the United Nations, the definition of human trafficking is:
"THE RECRUITMENT, TRANSPORTATION, TRANSFER, HARBOURING OR RECEIPT OF PERSONS FOR THE PURPOSE OF EXPLOITATION."
Modern-day slavery is real. Traffickers exploit their victims in the sex industry through forced labor, organ removal and selling.
Sex trafficking, in particular, is a multi-billion dollar industry. Human beings who are trafficked are treated as commodities, bought and sold countless times.
Traffickers trick and lure their victims into slavery by taking advantage of the poverty in their country, the individual's lack of prospects, or their hope for a better future.
The victims are then brought to the country either legally or illegally, led by false promises of work or marriage. Once they arrive, the victims are coerced into a position of dependence by their traffickers through debt bondage, violence, and/or drugs. The victims become exploited goods and are deprived of their personal rights, freedom of speech, independence, and self-respect.

KOBR (channel 8) is a television station licensed to Roswell, New Mexico, United States, affiliated with NBC. It is a satellite of Albuquerque-based KOB (channel 4) which is owned by Saint Paul, Minnesota-based Hubbard Broadcasting. KOBR's transmitter is located near Caprock, New Mexico.

KOBF (channel 12) in Farmington also serves as a satellite of KOB. These satellite operations provide additional news bureaus for KOB and sell advertising time to local sponsors.

History

As a separate station
On March 28, 1952, oilman John A. Barnett filed an application for a new television station on channel 8 in Roswell. Barnett then became owner of radio station KSWS (1230 AM) when he purchased the station in November from Paul McEvoy. On January 28, 1953, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) granted the TV construction permit, which matched the radio station by adopting the call letters KSWS-TV. Programs began June 24, 1953; the station held network affiliations with ABC and DuMont, though soon all of the major networks added KSWS-TV as an affiliate. The original studio and transmitter location was at Comanche Peak, east of Roswell.

After the initial facilities were constructed, Barnett was disappointed by the coverage provided from Comanche Peak. He sought a taller tower, and in 1955, the FCC granted a modification to KSWS-TV to move the tower to Caprock,  east of Roswell, where the world's tallest structure at  would be erected in late 1956 and early 1957. With the new transmitter facility, the effective radiated power was ramped up to 316 kW, the highest for a full-power VHF analog station; the antenna was  above average terrain. Due to its remoteness, three homes were also built at Caprock for engineers and their families. The station moved to new studio facilities at 1717 West Second Street in 1958. The tower fell due to an ice storm in December 1960, and a new  tower was constructed. New facilities at Caprock and Comanche Peak were built. A newer tower was built by 1962; that same year, Barnett and KSWS-TV won more than $500,000 in damages in a jury trial against four insurance firms that had refused to pay out on their policies.

In 1961, Barnett sold KSWS radio to John Burroughs; it became KRSY. A second and more powerful KSWS station, this time at 1020 kHz, went on the air in December 1965. At the same time, however, the competitive picture for the television station changed. In 1956, KSWS-TV had received its first competitor when KAVE-TV channel 6 signed on in Carlsbad as the CBS affiliate for southeastern New Mexico; it became a regional station when the transmitter was moved to a  tower near Artesia in the early 1960s. In early 1966, KBIM-TV channel 10 signed on in Roswell as the area's new CBS affiliate, broadcasting from a studio in downtown Roswell and over a  tower that was just  short of the tallest mast, the KVLY mast in North Dakota. Almost simultaneously with the debut of KBIM, KAVE was sold and became a satellite of ABC affiliate KMOM-TV in Monahans, Texas (now KWES-TV in Midland). With ABC now having a primary affiliate in the area and KBIM becoming the exclusive CBS affiliate for southeastern New Mexico (KSWS retained a secondary affiliation with CBS even after KAVE went on the air), KSWS-TV became an exclusive NBC affiliate.

KCBD-TV satellite
As KSWS became a sole NBC affiliate in the mid-to-late 1960s, economic problems were emerging in southeastern New Mexico. The potash mines near Carlsbad downscaled activity or closed, and the Walker Air Force Base at Roswell was deactivated in 1967. At the same time, KSWS now faced major competition from KAVE and KBIM, new radio stations, and an expanding cable television system that gave viewers access to TV stations from surrounding areas of New Mexico and west Texas. Added to this series of events, Barnett died on April 30, 1967; he was 59.

After Barnett's death, the station was sold to Lubbock, Texas businessman Joe Bryant and his company, Caprock Broadcasting, for $490,000 (nearly half of that in KSWS-TV's indebtedness). Bryant turned KSWS into a full-time satellite of Lubbock's KCBD-TV. Combined, the two stations served one of the largest coverage areas in the nation. Two years later, Bryant died in 1970, and State Telecasting Company of Columbia, South Carolina, became the new owner of both KSWS and KCBD in 1971.

A private microwave system was installed between Lubbock and Roswell to link the two stations and programming. The system was very reliable, with good locations, sturdy towers, clear paths, and backup power (large lead acid batteries). The four hops went from the KCBD-TV studio/transmitter tower at 5600 Avenue "A" in Lubbock to a tower at the south edge of Levelland, Texas, to a site near Lehman, Texas (not far from Morton, Texas) to a site near Crossroads, New Mexico to the actual tower at Caprock. Collins Radio provided the equipment and the system was considered "network grade," meaning that it was comparable to AT&T hops of the day.

During the 1970s KCBD-TV produced a separate newscast for KSWS, aired from the KCBD studios in Lubbock. The New Mexico Report was recorded between KCBD's 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. newscasts (5 p.m. and 9 p.m. on KSWS, which operated in the Mountain Time Zone while KCBD broadcast in the Central Time Zone) and consisted largely of items off the New Mexico wire services. The program aired after Tom Snyder's Tomorrow show and before sign-off on both KSWS-TV and KCBD. Often as not, the same program was repeated at sign-on the next day.

KOB-TV satellite
State Telecasting decided to sell its Texas broadcast properties in 1983. Holsum Inc., the owners of Roswell CBS affiliate KBIM-TV, made the best bid for KCBD at $10.75 million, but they could not keep KSWS-TV. The station was transferred to KCBD Associates which was headed by W. Robert McKinsey (the longtime general manager of KCBD and KSWS). A planned sale to the Hubbard interests at KOB-TV had to wait until the KSWS license was renewed: the license had been challenged by KGGM-TV, which proposed its own local television station on channel 8.

In May 1983, the sale of KCBD-TV to the KBIM-TV owners closed. KSWS-TV began to operate independently of KCBD, by way of an agreement with New Mexico public television station KENW in Portales, New Mexico. Where KCBD-TV operated as a Central Time Zone station unsuitable for broadcast in a Mountain Time market (one hour earlier than Central), KSWS began to use an NBC feed that came from KOB and was fed over NMPTV microwave to the Portales master control and from there to the Caprock tower. According to listings from the New Mexico edition of TV Guide from this era, most NBC and selected syndicated and news programming originated from KOB-TV, with most of that station's syndicated and sports programming replaced with religious and selected PBS programming (though never popular PBS shows such as Sesame Street or Masterpiece Theatre).

In 1985, a settlement agreement was reached with Western Sun, allowing the KSWS-TV sale to Hubbard to move forward. The station then became KOBR, and KOB set out to expand the station's local news offerings and build a studio.  New studios and offices were eventually set up for the renamed KOBR at 124 East 4th Street in Roswell. Local news, weather and sports inserts called Eyewitness News 8 and specific to KOBR viewers were included in portions of the 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. newscasts sourced from the Albuquerque station.

KOBR reached its peak of viewership from 1995 through 1998 under the guidance of a team guided by station manager Dorrie Faubus. This group helped to lead the station to the top of the ratings in Roswell, culminating with the "news insert" format during the 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. newscasts. This gathered a boost of over 1-point share of viewership to KOB's ratings in the 18-24 demographic. Ratings waned after the inserts were shortened in 1999. The inserts were eventually discontinued at KOBR and KOBF effective March 1, 2007.

Technical information

Subchannels
The station's digital signal is multiplexed:

Analog-to-digital conversion
KOBR discontinued regular programming on its analog signal, over VHF channel 8, on June 12, 2009, the official date in which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal relocated from its pre-transition UHF channel 38 to VHF channel 8.

Assume that f2 = map.
I don't know whether it's good form or not–I'm new at this. But it seems to work.
Of course, that is much better.
Also, technical error 11 on the errata page mentions a solution involving map, flip and ($). Presumably the usage of flip would enable making f1 a curried function, although I haven't worked this out.
I'm a beginner, but I know a bit about partial application, currying, using flip, lambda expressions, etc, from reading in other texts. I'm confused why these problems (5.2 through 5.4) come so early in the book, before he has introduced any of these techniques. I tried to solve them to no avail using only what had been introduced so far.
I also think that those exercises are misplaced.

College World Series: Vanderbilt's Kumar Rocker has place in Nashville lore and an encore to deliver

College World Series: Vanderbilt's Kumar Rocker has place in Nashville lore and an encore to deliver Kumar Rocker and Predators forward Colton Sissons in 2017 stand apart, but will Vanderbilt do the same in Omaha? Check out this story on Tennessean.com: https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/columnist/joe-rexrode/2019/06/15/college-world-series-vanderbilt-baseball-kumar-rocker-omaha/1403515001/
Joe Rexrode, Nashville Tennessean Published 12:00 p.m. CT June 15, 2019
A wronged party can be seen in the distance, through the thick fog of argument over Kumar Rocker's no-hitter and just how much hyperbolizing it deserves.
Sorry, Colton Sissons.
Maybe I missed it, but I don't remember anyone identifying Sissons' 2017 hat trick against the Anaheim Ducks to put the Nashville Predators in the Stanley Cup Final as the greatest individual sports performance to take place in this city. I don't remember anyone even posing that as a possibility, or making a list. And we love lists! What was wrong with us back then? Too busy hyperbolizing the Pittsburgh Penguins to consider it?
After doing at least several minutes of research on this, I've got Sissons and Rocker as the easy top two. Rocker with the slight edge for No. 1. Stakes are a big part of it. Sissons was the Preds' emergency No. 1 center, with Ryan Johansen and Mike Fisher both injured and out, and he elevated his game when there was no other way to advance that day.

Rocker, well, you know the deal. True freshman, Vanderbilt facing elimination, no-hitter against Duke, 19 strikeouts, a performance that flipped a Super Regional and vaulted the Commodores toward the College World Series that they will begin Sunday against Louisville.
Before we explore the pressing questions ahead — how is Rocker going to follow that up in Omaha, and will he be trying to stave off elimination again? — there are others to mention. I've heard many cite Vandy star Shan Foster's insane shooting exhibition on his senior night against Mississippi State. Lipscomb's John Pierce, the all-time leading scorer in college basketball history, put 54 on Arkansas Baptist in 1992.

Ed Temple's TSU Tigerbelles had their greatest moments on international stages, but they had home meets, too. Certainly there are countless high school candidates. Vanderbilt running back Frank Mordica put an astounding 321 yards on Air Force, on 22 carries, in 1978 (thanks to Jim Wyatt for the tip on that one).
And of all the elite performances by Tennessee Titans and Titans opponents in this city, I don't see how Derrick Henry and his franchise-record 238 yards — and NFL-record-tying run of 99 yards — can be topped (thanks to PrisonerOfTheMoment.org for the inspiration).
If you want to take Rocker's night outside city limits, I can say I've been lucky enough to witness Simone Biles, Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky do astounding things to win gold medals. And a whole bunch of other awesome sports stuff. And that night will always be high on my list.

If you want to consider it within the scope of baseball, let Vanderbilt coach Tim Corbin do it instead.
"I think that's left up to anyone's perspective," he said, correctly. "It's going to be regarded as one of the better outings, I don't care what level. Whether it's Don Larsen's perfect game or whether it's Jack Morris' 10-inning shutout in the seventh game of the World Series, it's all up to the beholder, really. That was such a special performance in terms of what it did for Vanderbilt. …
"He had to sit in that dugout and watch 18 runners cross that base on Friday night. And you wonder what that's going to do to anyone, let alone a freshman. And then he hits the second batter in the game in the head, and you wonder what that's going to do to a freshman."
And now we wonder what the freshman will do next.
"Better be 20 strikeouts and another no-hitter, you know?" Corbin deadpanned. "No, he's just got to pitch. I tell you the thing about him, he just wants to win. So he's just going to do the best he can. I know when you pitch like that one time there's a certain level of anticipation. But he'll handle it well."

Rocker's legend in Nashville is secure, and local fans will be able to watch him for two more seasons after this. His celebrity has grown fast. David Price and Patrick Mahomes tweeted about his slider. He was a guest on Jim Rome's national radio show before the Commodores flew out to Nebraska. Rome asked him why he chose college over the pros right out of high school.
"There's college baseball and then there's Vanderbilt baseball," Rocker said. "And I think there's a huge difference between those two."
In Omaha, that difference could be him.

Q: System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema namespace conflict I am using MVC 4, .net 4, and Entity Framework 6. My projects are building on my dev machine which has Visual Studio 2010 installed but on my build server I get a namespace conflict...
The type 'System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema.DatabaseGeneratedAttribute' exists in both 'd:\Projects\tools\Apps\LAMS\packages\EntityFramework.6.0.2\lib\net40\EntityFramework.dll' and 'c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations\v4.0_4.0.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dll'
I'm unsure how to resolve this conflict and I do not understand why I do not receive the conflict on my dev machine.
Many thanks

A: Problem
.NET 4.0 really shouldn't include System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.Schema so it's a little baffling that you'd get a reference conflict, but apparently .NET 4.5 overwrites 4.0 assemblies.
You can find more information in this post by Marc Gravell which states:

fact 1: 4.5 is an in-place over-the-top install on top of 4.0, in the GAC; once you have installed 4.5, 4.0 runs with the 4.5 assemblies
fact 2: if your build server doesn't have the reference assemblies, it looks in the GAC – so… once you've installed 4.5, it will get 4.5 even if you asked (in your project) for 4.0

Solution
On your development machine, Visual Studio adds a different folder that is used for referencing .NET 4.0 assemblies, which is something like

C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework.NETFramework\v4.0

You can copy that folder over to your build machine, and it should work since MSBuild will reference these when building a project targeting 4.0.
On the other hand, since you have uninstalled .NET 4.5 on your build machine, maybe just reinstalling .NET 4.0 would work as well.

Is Egypt the future IndoTurkeZil?
Three mummies were recently found in an underground temple in Luxor, Egypt. Translated hieroglyphs identified them as the Clash of Civilizations, the End of History, and Islamophobia. They ruled in Western domains into the second decade of the twenty-first century before dying and being embalmed.
That much is settled. Without them, the Middle East is already a new world that must be understood in a new way. For one thing, Egypt, that previously moribund land of "stability" and bosom buddy of whoever was in power in Washington, has been hurled into the Middle East's New Great Game. The question is: What will be its fate — and that of the millions of Egyptians who took to the streets in a staggering show of aggressive nonviolence in January and February?
It is, of course, impossible to say, especially since shadow play is the norm and the realities of rule are hard to discern. In a country where "politics" has for decades meant the army, it's notable that the key actor supposedly coordinating the "transition to democracy" remains an appointee of Pharaoh Hosni Mubarak, Field Marshall Mohamed Hussein Tantawi from the Supreme Army Council. At least, popular pressure has forced Tantawi's military junta to appoint a new transitional Prime Minister, the Tahrir-Square-friendly former transport minister Essam Sharaf.
Keep in mind that the hated emergency laws from the Mubarak era, part of what provoked the Egyptian uprising to begin with, are still in place and that the country's intellectuals, its political parties, labor unions, and the media all fear a silent counterrevolution. At the same time, they almost uniformly insist that the Tahrir Square revolution will neither be hijacked nor rebranded by opportunists. As the ideological divide between liberalism, secularism, and Islamism disintegrated when the country's psychological Wall of Fear came down, lawyers, doctors, textile workers — a range of the country's civil society — remain clear on one thing: they will never settle for a theocracy or a military dictatorship. They want full democracy.
Meanwhile, there are more pedestrian matters to deal with: How, for example, will the army-directed transition towards September elections make the economic numbers add up? In 2009, Egypt's import bill was $56 billion, while the country's exports only added up to $29 billion. Tourism, foreign aid, and borrowing helped fill the gap. The uprising sent tourism into a tailspin and who knows what kinds of aid and loans anyone will fork over in the months to come.
Meanwhile, the country will have to import no less than 10 million tons of wheat in 2011 at about $3.3 billion (if grain prices don't continue to rise) to keep people at least half-fed. This is but a small part of Mubarak's tawdry legacy, which includes 40 million Egyptians, almost half the population, living on less than $2 a day, and it's not going to disappear overnight, if at all.
Hit by a rolling, largely peaceful revolution all across MENA (the newly popular acronym for the Middle East and Northern Africa), Washington and an aging Fortress Europe, filled with fear, wallow in a mire of perplexity. Even after the dust from those rebellious Northern African winds settles, it's hardly a given that they will grasp just how all the cultural stereotypes used to explain the Middle East for decades also managed to vanish.
My favorite line of the Great Arab Revolt of 2011 is still Tunisian scholar Sarhan Dhouib's: "These revolts are an answer to [George W.] Bush's intent to democratize the Arab world with violence." If "shock and awe" is now also an artifact of an ancient world, what's next?
On February 3rd, the Turkish Economic and Social Studies Foundation published a poll conducted in seven Arab countries and Iran. No less than 66% of respondents considered Turkey, not Iran, the ideal model for the Middle East. A media scrum from Le Monde to the Financial Times now evidently concurs. After all, Turkey is a functional democracy in a Muslim-majority country where the separation of mosque and state prevails.
The process of true democratization that began back in the distant 1950s in Turkey proved to be a long road. Nonetheless, despite periodic military coups and the continuing political power of the Turkish army, elections were, and remain, free. The Justice and Development Party, or AKP, now at the Turkish helm, was founded in August 2001 by former members of the Refah Party, a much more conservative Islamic group with an ideology similar to that of today's Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
As the AKP mellowed out, however, the pro-business, pro-European Union wing of the country's Islamists mixed with various center-right politicians and, in 2002, the AKP finally took power in Ankara. Only then could they begin to slowly undermine the stranglehold of the traditional Istanbul-based secular Turkish elite and the military that had held power since the 1920s.
Yet the AKP did not dream of dismantling the secular system first installed by Turkey's founding father Mustapha Kemal Ataturk in 1924. The Turkish civil code he instituted was inspired by Switzerland with citizenship based on secular law. While the country is predominantly Muslim, of course, its people simply would not welcome a system, as in Khomeinist Iran, that is guided by religion.
The AKP should be viewed as the equivalent of the Christian Democrats in Europe after the 1950s — dynamic, business-oriented conservatives with religious roots. In Egypt, the moderate wing of the Muslim Brotherhood has many similarities to the AKP and looks to it for inspiration. In the new Egypt, it will finally be a legitimate political party and most experts believe that it could garner 25% to 30% of the vote in the first election of the new era.
Turkish critics — usually from the Western-oriented technical and managerial caste — regularly accuse the democracy-meets-Islam Turkish model of being little more than a successful marketing ploy, or worse, a Middle Eastern version of Russia. After all, the army still wields disproportionate behind-the-scenes power as guarantor of the state's secular framework. And the country's Kurdish minority is not really integrated into the system (although in September 2010 Turkish voters approved constitutional changes that give greater rights to Christians and Kurds).
With its glorious Ottoman past, notes Orhan Pamuk, the 2006 winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Turkey was never colonized by a world power, and thus "'veneration of Europe' or 'imitation of the West' never had the humiliating connotations" described by Frantz Fanon or Edward Said for much of the rest of the Middle East and North Africa.
There are stark differences between Turkey's road to a military-free democracy in 2002 and the littered path ahead for Egypt's young demonstrators and nascent political parties. In Turkey the key actors were pro-business Islamists, conservatives, neo-liberals, and right-wing nationalists. In Egypt they are pro-labor Islamists, leftists, liberals, and left-wing nationalists.
The revolution in Tahrir Square made the necessary connections in a deeply comprehensible way. It managed to go to the heart of the matter, linking miserable wages, mass unemployment, and increasing poverty to the ways in which Mubarak's cronies (and also the military establishment) enriched themselves. Sooner or later, in any showdown to come, the way the military controls so much of the economy will be an unavoidable topic — the way, for instance, army-owned companies continue to make a killing in the water, olive oil, cement, construction, hotel, and oil industries, or the way the military has come to own significant tracts of land in the Nile Delta and on the Red Sea, "gifts" for guaranteeing regime stability.
It's not surprising that key sectors in the West are pushing for a "safe" Turkish model for Egypt. Yet, given the country's immiseration, it's unlikely that young protesters and their working class supporters will be appeased even by the possibility of a Turkish-style, neoliberal, Islamo-democratic system. What this leftist/liberal/Islamist coalition is fighting for is a labor-friendly, independent, truly sovereign democracy. It doesn't take a PhD. from the London School of Economics, like the one bought by Saif al-Islam al-Gaddafi, to see how cataclysmic this newly independent outlook could be for the current status quo.
Don't misunderstand: Whether the Tahrir Square activists want to reproduce the Turkish system in Egypt or not, Turkey itself is immensely popular there, as it increasingly is in the wider Arab world. That offers Ankara's politicians the perfect scenario for consolidating the country's regional leadership role, distinctly on the rise since, in 2003, its leaders established their independence by rebuffing George W. Bush's desire to use Turkish territory in his invasion of Iraq.
That popularity was only heightened after eight of the nine victims shot by Israeli commandos in the Gaza freedom flotilla fiasco turned out to be Turks. When Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan vociferously condemned Israel for its "bloody massacre," he instantly became the "King of Gaza." When Mubarak finally responded to the Tahrir Square demonstrations by announcing that he would not run again for president in 2011, President Obama didn't say much, and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair urged Egypt not to "rush towards elections." As for Erdogan, he virtually ordered Mubarak to step down, live on al-Jazeera for the whole Muslim world to see.
While Washington fiddled with embracing the wrong side of history, however reluctantly and chaotically, in the company of those staunch Mubarak defenders Israel and Saudi Arabia, Erdogan — with a canny assessment of regional politics — preferred to back Egyptians attempting to chart their own destiny. And it paid off.
The point is not that America is now "losing" Turkey, nor that, as some critics have charged, Erdogan is dreaming of becoming a neo-Ottoman Caliph (whatever that might mean). What must be understood here is a new Turkish concept: strategic depth. For that we need to turn to a book, Stratejik Derinlik: Turkiye'nin Uluslararasi Konumu (Strategic Depth: Turkey's International Position), published in Istanbul in 2001 by Ahmet Davutoglu, then a professor of international relations at the University of Marmara, now Turkey's Foreign Minister.
Take the idea of Turkey's "strategic depth" and combine it with the Great Arab Revolt of 2011 and you understand why Erdogan has launched a bid not just to make the Turkish model the Egyptian one or even the Middle Eastern one, but to upstage Egypt as the future mediator between the region and the West. That Erdogan and Davutoglu were heading in this direction has been clear enough from the way, in the past few years, they have tried to insert themselves as mediators between Syria and Israel and have launched a complex political, diplomatic, and economic opening towards Iran.
And speaking of historical ironies, just as Iran's fundamentalist leaders were watching an Egyptian regime deeply hostile to them go down, protests by the Iranian Green Movement suddenly began to rock Tehran again — during a visit by none other than Turkish President Abdullah Gul. The protests were handled with what amounted to a velvet glove (by Tehran's standards) because the military dictatorship of the mullahtariat found itself in a potentially losing competition with its Turkish ally to become the number one inspirational source for Arab mass movements.
Java: democracy with your coffee?
If Egyptians want lessons in the establishment of democracy, Turkey is hardly the only place to turn to for inspiration. They could, for example, look to Latin America. For the first time in over 500 years, South America is fully democratic. As in Egypt, so in many Latin American countries in the Cold War era, dictatorships were the order of the day and militaries ruled. In Brazil, for instance, the "slow, gradual, and secure" political opening that left a military dictatorship behind took practically a decade.
That implies a lot of patience. The same applies to another model: Indonesia. There, in 1998, Suharto, an aging U.S.-backed dictator 32 years in power, finally resigned only a few days after returning from a visit to, of all places, Cairo. Indonesia then looked a lot like Egypt in February 2011: a Western-friendly, predominantly Muslim nation, impoverished and fed up with a mega-corrupt military dictator who crushed leftist intellectuals as well as political Islam.
Thirteen years later, Indonesia is the world's third largest democracy and the freest in Southeast Asia, with a secular government, a booming economy, and the military out of politics.
True, Indonesians had to live for a while with Suharto's handpicked vice president, the affable B.J. Habibie (so unlike Mubarak's handpicked successor the sinister Omar "Sheikh al-Torture" Suleiman). It took a year to organize new elections, amend electoral laws, and get rid of appointed seats in Parliament. It took six years for the first direct presidential election. And yes, corruption is still a huge problem, and wealth and the right connections go a long way (as is true, some would say, in the U.S.). But today, the rule of law prevails.
An "Islamic state" never had a chance. Today, only 25% of Indonesians vote for Islamic parties, while the well-organized Prosperous Justice Party, an ideological descendant of the Muslim Brotherhood, but now officially open to non-Muslims, holds only four out of 37 seats in the cabinet of President Yudhoyono, and expects to win no more than 10% of the vote in the 2014 elections.
While Indonesia remains close to the U.S. and is heavily courted by Washington as a counterweight to China, Brazil under the presidency of immensely popular Luis Ignacio "Lula" da Silva charted a far more independent path for itself and, by example, much of Latin America. This process took almost a decade and future historians may see it as at least as significant as the fall of the Berlin Wall.
The future is, of course, unknown, but perhaps a decade or two from now, we'll be able to say that the Egyptians and other Arab peoples struck out not on the Turkish model, nor even the Brazilian or Indonesian ones, but onto a set of new paths. Perhaps the future from Cairo to Tunis, Benghazi to Manama, Algiers to (Allah willing) a post-House of Saud Saudi Arabia will involve inventing a new political culture and the new economic contracts that would go with it, ones that will be indigenous and, hopefully, democratic in new and surprising ways.
Which brings us back to Turkey. It's perfectly feasible that Islam will be one of the building blocks of something entirely new, something no one today has a clue about, something that will resemble what was, in Europe, the separation between politics and religion. In the spirit of May 1968, perhaps we can even picture an Arab Banksy plastering a stencil across all Arab capitals: Imagination in Power!

Fans Express Crypto News JP Morgan Launching JPM Coin ,First Bank-Backed "JPM Coin" Cryptocurrency.
JP Morgan Launching JPM Coin ,First Bank-Backed "JPM Coin" Cryptocurrency.
Fans Express February 14, 2019 Crypto News
Fans Express
International investment bank and notorious Bitcoin skeptic JPMorgan Chase will be the first US bank to issue its own cryptocurrency.
The launch of the coin is happening despite the CEO of the bank, Jamie Dimon, being a long-time critic of Bitcoin. In autumn 2018, he stated that the 'Bitcoin bubble has burst'.
The trial launch of the new bank-issued coin is about to take place in several months. The purpose of the token, as is of many of those previously launched in the market, is making payments that would take instants to reach the recipient.
Apparently, the heavyweight of the banking industry is worried about the impact crypto coins are beginning to have on the financial industry over time, especially Ripple, which has gotten itself quite a few big-name partners — including major global banks — over the course of 2018.
Regular bank transfers take from one to several days to complete compared to virtual coins, which literary take a few minutes.
Currently, JP Morgan has its own blockchain division, and they are admitting that the DLT and cryptocurrencies are much more efficient and must be integrated into the bank's work.
It is worth noting that in 2018, JP Morgan and a couple of other major banks banned the use of credit card payments for purchasing crypto in order to protect their customers. Goldman Sachs voiced their intention to launch a BTC trading desk, but later on gave up that idea due to the continuous bearish market.
The new token will be based on a similar principle as stablecoins. Each JPM Coin will be backed by a US dollar, which should ensure its stability. Customers will receive coins after they put dollars into their accounts.
After the necessary operations with the bank's crypto are completed, the lender will destroy electronic coins and let the customers have their dollars back.
JPM Coin will also see implementation in securities transactions and as part of JPMorgan's treasury services features.
Only a "tiny" amount of the total flows involved in these areas will use the cryptocurrency to begin with, JPM coins acting as a 1:1 dollar substitute similar to a stablecoin.
"Even if this was limited to JPM clients at the institutional level, it shouldn't hold us back," Farooq concluded.
Last year also saw the bank's co-president Daniel Pinto go on record to admit cryptocurrency "will play a role" in the future global economy.
"I think the concept is valid, you have many central banks looking into," he said speaking to CNBC in May.
"The tokenization of the economy, for me, is real. Cryptocurrencies are real but not in the current form."

Like I said the last time in my post, I have decided and accepted that I will be bouncing from one project to another in the shortest time possible. And so, naturally, my weekend was a random mix of endeavors.
I finally started the miniature house I've been planning on working on for months now. This is just one of the rooms, so I have a long way to go. I felt happy to have simply started it already.
You just don't know how much I have been wanting to repaint again.
Finally, the derwent watercolor pencils I bought several months are at work!
I'm looking at selling the redhead on Etsy by the weekend, complete with a character, an OOAK outfit and accessories. I intend to make more of these OOAK dolls in the near future.
So, yeah.. That's it for my crafter life. Of course the personal life is just as exciting 😉 because whatelse are you doing all these endeavors for when your personal life is not worth coming home to?
Good luck with the Etsy sell. I am sure she will not have trouble finding a new forever home.
I love how the house is coming along so far! Seeing it makes me want to create a gazebo or porch for my dolls, but I'm not so handy so that may have to wait a bit.


If you live and breathe the fascination of Sea sports, or in the Lakes and the water still thrills you, then often when you go on vacation in a new location you would be able to practice your favorite water sports, but the centers who practice them are not easy to find. In addition, more often than not they are located in very unusual areas and often outside the centers of the seaside resorts.
Blue Dreamingwas born for this reason and is the link between those who want to do water sports and those who offer them, a bit, like Tripadvisor and Booking are for those looking for an accommodation.
The first Italian portal of aquatic sports has born from the desire to offer a universe of possibilities to live fully the seas, the rivers, and the lakes. The water offers millions of differents emotions so everybody can choose his favorite: the relax of a yoga session while riding a stand up paddle board, the adrenaline of an uncontrolled run on the water attached to a kitesurf, the challenge of riding a big wave or the excitement of a quick river descent.
From now on, you will know where to live your dream on the water, simply by choosing the center from the comfort of your home.When you then buy a course, an event or a rental, you will automatically be sent an email with the voucher of your purchase / reservation, where you will also find the address of the center to reach it comfortably and a link that refers to the info of the purchased service.
Come on now, and book today on BlueDreaming your dream on the water and have fun!
If you buy a course in a place where the adverse weather conditions do not allow you to attend it, you can still use the voucher purchased to take the course at one of the many other Blue Dreaming centers scattered in our country, thus avoiding throwing your money away!
Beatrice è il cuore pulsante di Blue Dreaming.

[Update II] 'Ten Hag does not need to see Ronaldo again at Manchester United'
Cristiano Ronaldo has in an interview with Piers Morgan lashed out hard at Erik ten Hag and the club management of Manchester United. In the conversation with the English journalist, Ronaldo says he feels betrayed at Manchester United.
Since Ten Hag took office as manager of Manchester United, it has been about the future of the Portuguese footballer at the English top club. It seems that Ronaldo is not in the plans of the former Ajax coach. This season, Ronaldo is mainly on the bench and he has one wish for the winter transfer period: to leave.
In conversation with Morgan, Ronaldo lashes out at Ten Hag. "I don't respect him because he doesn't respect me," said Ronaldo, who recently refused to come in against Tottenham Hotspur. Ten Hag punished him for this by leaving him out of the selection for one game. "If you don't respect me, I'll never respect you."
Ronaldo also not happy with club management and Rooney
Ronaldo has the feeling that Ten Hag and the club management want him out of Manchester United. "Not just the coach, but two or three people around the club. I feel betrayed. Some people don't want me here. Not just this season, but last season as well.'
Wayne Rooney was recently critical of Ronaldo and the Portuguese is not happy about that. He says, 'I don't know why either. Maybe because he has already stopped playing football and I still play at a high level. I won't say I look better than him… But I do', he concludes with a wink.
The complete interview will appear on the TalkTV channels next Wednesday and Thursday. Whether Ronaldo will tell more about his near future will then become apparent.
Update – 13:40 (November 14, 2022) – 'Manchester United club management with Ten Hag in conversation about Ronaldo'
The Manchester United club management will talk to manager Erik ten Hag following the interview of Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese footballer indicated that he had no respect for Ten Hag. The interview has hit the English top club like a bomb. The Telegraph writes that Manchester United will soon make a decision about Ronaldo's future at the club.
It is clear that the Manchester United club management is 'deeply disappointed' in Ronaldo because of his attack on the club and Ten Hag. Possibly Ronaldo – with the possibly timed interview – wants to force a transfer in January. Under Ten Hag, Ronaldo has lost his starting place at Manchester United.
Update II – 08.25 am (November 15, 2022) – 'Ten Hag does not need to see Ronaldo again at Manchester United'
Erik ten Hag has informed the club management of Manchester United that Cristiano Ronaldo should no longer play for the club. With his interview with Piers Morgan, Ronaldo has gone too far, according to Ten Hag. Sources report this ESPN.
Ten Hag has had a conversation with Joel Glazer, the owner of Manchester United. According to the former trainer of Ajax, Ronaldo has shown with his interview that he has no respect for the club and the trainer. At the moment, Manchester United is seeking legal advice on how to deal with this situation. Ronaldo still has a contract with the English top club until the summer of 2023. He receives more than £ 500,000 per week.

ANDALUSIA, Ala. (WSFA) - Longtime Andalusia City Schools Superintendent Ted Watson has announced that he will be retiring later this year.
In an email sent out to schools, Watson said he has plans to retire at the end of August. He first made the announcement at last Tuesday's board meeting.
Watson said he has been in the profession for 35 years. He has spent the last 31 years in Andalusia.
He became superintendent in 2010.
"No one could have been more fortunate than me. There have been good times and bad but I truly have been blessed to work with what I believe to be Alabama's finest," Watson said in the email.
Watson said he will press forward to try to make a smooth transition.
"An early announcement was my attempt at trying to give our board ample time to do just that," he added.

There were a few inevitable things that happened after Alec Baldwin got kicked off an American Airlines flight for playing Words with Friends. First, he angrily tweeted about it. Then came the ultimate in celebrity introspection, the deletion of his Twitter account followed by a Huffington Post editorial. Finally, this entire ordeal has reached its natural conclusion: Taiwanese CGI studio NMA has animated it. Video after the jump.
Is there any better time capsule for 2011 than a Taiwanese animation about Alec Baldwin playing on his iPhone and tweeting about it? Unfortunately, probably not.
