Video shows woman assault MRT guard over mask rule
Pandemic jerk: Woman repeatedly punches MRT security guard after being told to wear face mask
By Keoni Everington, Taiwan News, Staff Writer
Over the weekend, video surfaced of a female Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) passenger in Taipei exhibiting reprehensible behavior toward a security guard after she became enraged over the transportation system's mask policy.
Although Taiwan had by Friday (May 15) gone 33 days without a new case of Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) and eight days without an imported infection, the Taipei Metro was still strictly enforcing the rule requiring passengers to wear face masks at all times. That evening at 7 p.m. in the Taipei City Hall metro station, a 26-year-old woman, surnamed Cheng (鄭), who was asked to leave because she was not wearing a mask assaulted security personnel, including an attack on a male security guard that lasted for nearly three minutes.
In a video posted on Facebook and YouTube, a woman wearing glasses is seen being pinned to the ground by a female MRT security employee after apparently refusing to wear a mask and assaulting a staff member. The guard can be seen admonishing Cheng for her behavior.
However, Cheng starts to wrestle with the other woman, and as she pulls her down, a large, male security guard steps in and pulls Cheng up. Once on her feet, Cheng begins to viciously punch him in the face.
The male guard shows remarkable patience as he tries to fend off Cheng and calm her down. Despite his best efforts, Cheng continues to punch him.
The man eventually pins Cheng to the ground and asks her to calm down. Cheng then bites the man's hand and he releases his grip.
Once back on her feet, Cheng taunts and challenges the man to fight her without his bulletproof vest. The security officer takes off his vest in apparent preparation to fight her.
However, the man continues to use restraint as he tries to reason with Cheng. Emboldened, she becomes even more aggressive and proceeds to rain down punches on the hapless security guard for nearly two more minutes.
Finally, the security guard loses his composure, wrestles Cheng to the ground, pins her arm, and shouts "Have you had enough?" The video was quickly shared on the Taiwanese online message board PTT, where netizens expressed their sympathy and admiration for the security guard.
Cheng was arrested by Taipei Police and was transferred to the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office to be investigated for charges of assault (傷害罪). She was later released after posting NT$30,000 (US$1,000) bail, reported ETtoday.
According to Taipei Metro, in accordance with Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) guidelines, all MRT passengers are required to wear a face mask upon entering a station. Those who refuse to comply with the regulation can be subject to fines ranging between NT$3,000 to NT$15,000.

Q: Date formatting in pure C using time zones I want to implement Unix milliseconds converter to human readable date format.
using this post https://stackoverflow.com/a/1657307/1979882 I found I can receive such string but I can't setup a time zone inside the code. The code uses only system time zone.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

int main ( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
    time_t now;
    struct tm *lcltime;

    now = time ( NULL );
    lcltime = localtime ( &now );

    printf ( "The time is %d:%d\n", lcltime->tm_hour, lcltime->tm_min );

    return 0;
}

Is it possible to customize it?
EDIT
I need some Java-like method:
SimpleDateFormat df= new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM hh:mm z",Locale.ENGLISH);
df.setTimeZone("Europe/London");
System.out.println("London Time " + df.format(System.currentTime()));
df.setTimeZone("Asia/Benjin");
System.out.println("Benjin Time " + df.format(System.currentTime()));

EDIT_2
I found I can setup time zone using setenv(...)
url
https://stackoverflow.com/a/1620451/1979882
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
    struct tm *mt;
    time_t mtt;
    char ftime[10];

    setenv("TZ", "PST8PDT", 1);
    tzset();
    mtt = time(NULL);
    mt = localtime(&mtt);
    strftime(ftime,sizeof(ftime),"%Z %H%M",mt);

    printf("%s\n", ftime);
}

But in changes the system time zone. I need just time zone modification only inside my code.

A: You can change the argument to localtime based on the timezone difference required.
now += (time_t)(3600*TIME_DIFF_IN_HRS)
lcltime = localtime ( &now );

To be totally portable, you can get the current time zone by referring this post

TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO -- Furman freshman Grace Tinkey placed fifth as a member of the Team USA junior national cross country team at the 2014 North America, Central America, and Caribbean (NACAC) Cross Country Championships Saturday in Trinidad and Tobago. Tinkey placed second among Team USA's competitors, recoring a time of 13:45.37 in the 4K event.
"Grace has been running great for the past couple of months, so I knew she had a great race in her," said Furman coach Rita Gary following the event. "To score so high in an international competition is a major accomplishment. I hope that this will be the first of many Team USA opportunities for Grace, and I'm excited to help her get there."
Tinkey, who hails from Macon, Ga., registered a 16th-place finish with a time of 20:58.9 to earn All-Southeast Region accolades in November. She placed third at the conference meet with a time of 17:33.76, joining Buchalski on both the All-SoCon first team and the SoCon All-Freshman Team, and was the Paladins' top finisher at the Furman Invitational on Sept. 14. Last weekend she earned All-American status at the USA Junior Cross Country Championships, posting a fourth-place finish in the 6K on the Flatirons Golf Course in Boulder, Colo.
Tinkey will compete with the Paladins at the SoCon Championships in Winston-Salem, N.C., on March 1-2.


Ellon fire station watch manager Ron Beedie at the Buchan Hotel.
Firefighters in Ellon have been praised for funding a community defibrillator in the town.
The life-saving equipment has been bought with some of the proceeds from the annual fire station open day.
And local publicans will be the first to undergo training in the new kit next week.
The defibrillator, which cost around £1400, will be installed in the Buchan Hotel by the start of next month and it will be easily accessible when needed in the town centre.
Hotel owner Ron Beedie, who is also Ellon fire station watch manager, told the Times: "We decided to purchase a defibrillator for the centre of the town and we really want to get people trained up on the use of it so that they are confident in using it.
"Local publicans will be the first to be trained. The idea is that if someone collapses then they can either send along to get the defibrillar or they can use it themselves, rather than relying on someone here to use it.
The training evening will be on Thursday, October 29, at the fire station from 6pm.
David Rout, Scottish Fire and Rescue Service local senior officer for Aberdeenshire and Moray, said: "This is an excellent example of community resilience and we are supporting this by opening up the fire station in Ellon to members of the public to receive CPR training.
"The first training event will see all local publicans training together in CPR, a somewhat unique event.
The move was also welcomed by Ellon and District Councillor Rob Merson, who has been calling for more public access life-saving equipment in local communities.
He said: "I have been delighted by the number of local organisations which have taken the initiative in the drive to provide more public access defibrillators.
"Scottish Fire and Rescue has taken a leading role in this, and it has come as no surprise that Ellon watch manager Ron Beedie has taken the initiative into his business life - and is also providing training for other local publicans.
"The point has been well made that fire extinguishers must be fitted in all public buildings by law – yet, thankfully, comparatively few people die in fires.
It comes as the SFRS joins forces with the British Heart Foundation (BHF) in order to help save lives across the country.
The Call Push Rescue training kits were donated by BHF.

The September Society
Charles Lenox Mysteries (Volume 2)
Charles Finch
The first murders were committed nineteen years before the second, on a dry and unremarkable day along the Sutlej Frontier in Punjab.
It was beastly hot weather, as Juniper remarked to Captain Lysander out on the veranda of the officers' mess, fit for little more than an odd gin and tonic, perhaps the lazy composition of a letter home. The flies, maddening creatures that had never learned to take no for an answer, crowded around the nets that blocked the porch, searching for a way in. "I would trade a hand to be back in London," Lysander said to Juniper after a long pause. "At least they have the decency to bar these flies from coming into the city there."
The battalion was on edge, because a recent retaliatory raid on a local village had turned bloody. Suspicion and rumor abounded. The officers, with a few exceptions, had long ceased to attend to their charges' morale. Though all the Englishmen in Punjab lived well, with villas and servants to themselves, every one of them at that uneasy moment would have made the trade Lysander proposed.
"Well," said Juniper. "I may go look around and have a bit of a shoot with Jim."
"Were you planning that?"
"Oh, yes."
"Where do you reckon you'll go?"
"That little patch of scrub east of here. Doubt we'll find anything worth a bullet. Maybe a darkie or two, looking for trouble."
Lysander smiled grimly. "Past that little grove of banyan trees, then?"
"Curious today, aren't you?"
In another place this might have sounded rude, but being white was a great equalizer in that country, and these men were too intimate to maintain entirely the ceremonies of respect and rank that defined the British.
"Always on the lookout for a decent bit of shooting, you know," responded Lysander, sipping his gin and tonic. He was a trim, forceful, savvy-looking man. "D'you know why they give us so much tonic, young pup?"
"No. Why?"
"Has quinine in it. Prevents malaria."
"I suppose I did know that, actually."
"They must've told you in training."
"Yes," said Juniper, nodding agreeably.
"Just past that grove of banyan trees, then?" There was a slight, casual persistence in Lysander's voice. "Ever shot anything edible there?"
"Not to speak of. There are a few birds, not much on the ground. It's poor sport."
"So's this whole country."
"Any more inspirational speech before I leave?"
"On your way."
Juniper stood up. "I'm sure I'll see you for cocktails."
But he wouldn't, and the other man knew it.
When Juniper had gone out of sight, Lysander leapt out of his chair and walked briskly up a small dirt path that led from the mess to his villa. The captain's batman, his assistant and a lance corporal, was on the porch, whittling an Indian charm to send back to his mother. He had been working on it for weeks.
"Best go do it now," Lysander said. "He's off with Juniper. Both of them, would you? They're hunting, out east, in that scrub."
"Yes, sir," said the batman, standing. Here rank still meant something.
"Do your best to make it look like an accident, obviously."
"Yes, sir."
Lysander paused. "By the way, that treasure?"
"Yes, sir?"
"There's talk of a society. Don't know what it's to be called yet, and it will be for officers alone."
"Sir?"
"But if you do right by us, we'll do right by you."
"Thank you, sir."
The batman ran off, and Lysander called to one of the servants, a fair Indian lad, swathed in brilliant pink and pale blue that contrasted with the dull beige of the landscape and the military man's uniform. The boy with some sullenness came forward.
"That box," Lysander barked. "Bring it to me. And it's worth your life to open it before it gets here."
A moment later he was holding the box, and, when certain he was alone, he opened it to reveal a massive, pristine, and beautiful sapphire.
As he snapped the box shut and had it taken away, Juniper and his friend Jim emerged from the latter's house, guns broken over their arms, both wearing beige, broad-brimmed hats to keep the dying sun off of their necks and faces. They had a bantering style of conversation that sounded as if it had been picked up from a thousand other conversations before. It was clear how much closer they were than Juniper and Lysander.
"A farthing says you'll never eat what you shoot," Juniper said with a laugh.
"A farthing? I've played higher stakes than that with women."
"That serving girl of mine you like, then."
"What do I have to eat?"
"First thing either of us shoots."
"What if it's the dirt?"
"Bet's a bet."
"How much dirt would I have to eat?"
"Nice haunch of it."
"Farthing for the first meat, let's go back to that. Don't shoot anything too horrible."
"I'm insulted you'd suggest it."
It was a little more than a mile outside of camp, away from Lahore—and that city's dangers, which these two men knew all too well—that they found a decent patch of land. It had a few bushes and trees scattered around it. They didn't have a dog, but Juniper shot into the undergrowth and drove a few birds out into the open, where the two men had a clear look at them.
They observed the birds fluttering, partially obscured, soon to be dead. Ruminatively, Juniper said, "What do you miss most? About England?"
His interlocutor thought it over. "I wish I hadn't left it so badly with my family, you know. I miss them."
"I do, too."
"Only six months, I suppose."
Then both men heard a scratching emerge from the under-growth that lay off to their side.
A shot. The fall of a body. Another shot. The fall of a body. A lone figure, Lysander's batman, rose from his hidden spot and ran off full bore back west. And then a long, long silence, in the empty land that stretched blank as far as the eye could see, in every direction, forty-five hundred miles away from Piccadilly Circus.

Rabbitohs re-sign Damien Cook until 2023

Wed 5 Dec 2018, 12:49 PM
The South Sydney Rabbitohs have locked up star hooker Damien Cook on a four-year contract extension that will keep him at the club through to 2023.
The 27-year-old played his way into the NSW and Kangaroos jerseys in a brilliant individual season in 2018, earning the Dally M Hooker of the Year Award and being crowned the Rabbitohs' George Piggins Medallist.
"I'm very excited to be extending my contract with the Rabbitohs and I'm happy to have my future sorted," Cook said.
"Souths has been my home for the past three years and I didn't think it would be possible to be able to secure things for the next five years, but I'm so happy that that will be the case.
"I've loved every moment of my time here, even the tough times, and I think we're building to something nicely.
"It's exciting times at the Rabbitohs and I'm looking forward to seeing where we can take it in 2019 and beyond."

Polygyros ( [] ) ist eine Kleinstadt mit 6121 Einwohnern in der nordgriechischen Region Zentralmakedonien. Polygyros ist Sitz der Gemeinde (Dimos) Polygyros, die bis 2010 Verwaltungssitz der ehemaligen Präfektur Chalkidiki war. Der Stadtbezirk Polygyros besteht seit 2011 aus der Kleinstadt Polygyros mit den Siedlungen Kalives Polygyrou und Patelida im Gemeindebezirk (dimotiki enotita) Polygyros (11.386 Einwohner) der Gemeinde (dimos) Polygyros.

Polygyros liegt in etwa in der geographischen Mitte der Halbinsel Chalkidiki westlich des Cholomondas-Bergzugs in einer Talsenke.

Neben den Einrichtungen des Verwaltungssitzes finden sich zentral Versorgungseinrichtungen wie Krankenhaus, Gericht und das Militärbüro (entspricht dem deutschen Kreiswehrersatzamt). Polygyros beherbergt auch das archäologische Museum der Chalkidiki, in dem Fundstücke aus Ausgrabungsstätten der gesamten Chalkidiki ausgestellt sind.

Polygyros ist über gut ausgebaute Straßen mit Thessaloniki (Nationalstraße 16) und Gerakini verbunden. Eine Nebenstrecke führt über das Cholomondas-Massiv kurvenreich an Taxiarchis vorbei nach Arnea. Diese Straßenanbindungen werden im Rahmen des öffentlichen Personennahverkehrs mittels Bussen (KTEL) genutzt. Eisenbahnverbindungen existieren wie auf der gesamten Chalkidiki nicht. Der nächste nationale und internationale Verkehrsflughafen ist der Flughafen Thessaloniki.

The Sanderson Eagles were leading the Marfa Shorthorns 36-8 on Friday evening when a fight between players from both teams broke out on the football field. The incident resulted in a trip to the hospital for one student athlete from Marfa, and the arrest of Sanderson Coach David Donnell.
Marfa Police Chief Estevan Marquez says, as the fight escalated, Donnell was among a handful of other coaching staff and law enforcement who jumped into the pile to intervene.
Emergency medical services transported the student athlete to the Big Bend Regional Medical Center, where he was treated for neck pain and a mild concussion. He was discharged from the hospital early Saturday morning.
The University Interscholastic League, or UIL, is conducting an investigation into the events that occurred Friday night.
David Donnell was released on bond Friday night, and could now face a $4,000 fine, one year in jail, or both.

History of Hagia Sophia After Becoming Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey
by MABA NAMAAs in Places To Visit, Travelling, Turkey
This article is about the reopening of the Hagia Sofia so I wanted to write about this topic specifically because the Hagia Sofia is the museum/mosque not sure what I'm supposed to call it now it was a museum at the time so I'm just going to say museum it was a museum maybe I should say mosque it was a museum/mosque that I was standing next to when I heard the azan for the first time.
I was standing in between the Hagia Sofia and blue mosque when I heard the azan for the first time it's really special to me and I feel sad in connection to the place purely because of that experience standing next to it hearing the azan and going on this journey it's purely because of this personal connection that I feel like I have with the place is why I wanted to make the article so let me tell you a little bit of history about the place.
The hagia sofia was originally built as a church then it became a mosque then it became a museum then it became a mosque again so that area where the original church was built was already the home to a church in 360 CE there was a church that was built on that same plot but rioters come along and they destroyed it so the second church was built but same thing happened those little rioters come along and they burnt it down again then justinian just just seeing i don't know how you say it but he was some roman dude jossinian and roman emperor came along he built the structure in 537 CE just seven years it took him to build it which was incredibly quick in those days considering that Notre dame took a century to build it was originally built as a Greek orthodox cathedral but then for a brief moment in time it became a roman catholic church and then again it went back to being a Greek orthodox cathedral so it was called this name meaning holy wisdom it was kind of interesting to think about it because when i was standing next to the hagia sophia and i heard the azan for the first time.

Detailed Review of Hotel Istanbul Trend in Turkey
I just had a really big revelation anyway then came along sultan Muhammad ii he conquered Istanbul which then was called Constantine nova on the 29th of May 1453 CE now this is where history gets a little bit confusing some people say that the sultan brought the church with money and therefore it was a legitimate transaction obviously that when he conquered it was there was no payment transaction that took place it became his responsibility and his right to the place after he conquered it I've tried doing a lot of research into it a lot of places are saying that there was no transaction that was made a lot of places that are saying there was a transaction that was made without actually seeing proof that he didn't either or i don't actually know there's a transaction or not.
There was a story that was told on a website that I was reading that said the first thing he did is he conquered the cities he went straight to the Hagia Sofia he took some soil from the ground and he poured it on his head as a sign of humility to Allah now I hope that story is true because it's just so beautiful to imagine this great sultan outside of this at that time church taking the soil putting on his head and just showing humility towards Allah mashallah it's amazing so he turned it into a mosque and he put a little crescent on years and years and years later in 1931 Kamel atartuk.
I hate these names and i feel like I'm saying them wrong but I'm giving it a go anyway kamel atartuk he turned the mosque into a museum so he found a modern Turkish state based on secularism and actually he closed the mosque in 1931 for four years then in 1934 it was turned into a museum so now back into modern day times here we are in 2020 the museum/mosque/ was a Christian church is now open for the first time in 86 years for Friday prayers i was looking at some articles it was kind of interesting because they covered up all the Christian artwork with uh cloths but the thing is with mosques they should be kept as mosques unless there's a dire need to change it a lot of the big Islamic scholars are saying there's a transaction that took place Greek orthodox cathedral was sold for gold to the sultan and he turned it into an amazing mosque alhamdulillah now if this is true then there isn't really any arguments to be made against the mosque because there are hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of mosques even in the UK there used to be churches that were sold to Muslims.
Now mosques there are plenty of transactions that take place of other faiths selling their religious places and turning them into mosques especially in European countries and no one's ever had a problem with this and then also there's the argument about in Spain during the crusade hundreds of mosques were destroyed or even converted into churches it's like if i had a car and then i sold you my car then that's not my car anymore that's your car i don't have any rights over that car obviously my opinion is going to be a little bit biased as i am a Muslim and that is the place i was standing when i received holy wisdom so there is a lot of bias in my opinion i could be very much wrong I'm open to hearing how i am wrong but i believe turning into a mosque is a great idea i think more benefit can come from a place of prayer and worship than a place of going and looking at artifacts or whatever was in there i don't know I've never been in there inshallah no more problems will be caused I know a lot of people are hating on the president right now for changing it into a mosque it's in a Muslim country we should be happy with what we got and what we got is actually something amazing and i cannot wait to visit.

I'm sending a bouquet of love to all our First Baptist high school graduates with a special bouquet to Jordyn Parker and Luke Blentlinger. Jordyn and I teamed up as friends when the Parkers first moved to First Baptist and moved to Signal Mountain where I also live. Jordyn was in the fifth grade then. Now she's signed up to attend Berry College, Rome, Georgia.
Luke was the kid I picked to read an earlier edition of Behind Enemy Lines. That was many years ago and both Luke and Bobby, my main character, have done a lot of growing up. For the past three years he has worked as a server at Alexian and has done a great job. Luke will attend the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Georgia. He'll be a freshman where his older brother finishes u his college career in 216.
While it isn't an ironclad rule, if you are not a seasoned children's writer, you will fare better by stick to a single point of view. That means your story must be told solely through the eyes of the main character.
Much of what I'm going to write about next week has to do with any kind of fiction writing whether it's for children or adults.

SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy Reduces Mortality, Hospitalizations Across HF Subgroups
Lauren Biscaldi
Computer monitors in the operating theatre during heart valve replacement surgery, Reykjavik, Iceland
The researchers sought to determine the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors in terms of secondary clinical trial endpoints or heart failure patient subgroups.
The following article is a part of conference coverage from the American College of Cardiology's 70th Annual Scientific Session & Expo is being held virtually from May 15 to 17, 2021. The team at Cardiology Advisor will be reporting on the latest news and research conducted by clinicians and scientists in the field. Check back for more from the ACC 2021 .
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor use is associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with heart failure (HF), according to research presented at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) 2021 Annual Meeting, held May 15 to 17, 2021.
Although SGLT2 inhibitors are known to reduce the risk of HF hospitalization and cardiovascular mortality among people with HF, the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors in terms of secondary clinical trial endpoints or HF patient subgroups is not known.
Researchers conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials focused on SGLT2 inhibitor therapy in patients with HF. In particular, the researchers were interested in mortality, hospitalizations, and subgroup analyses of age, sex, renal function, HF class, and ejection fraction.
The review included 9 studies with 19,091 patients, 52.5% of whom received SGLT2 inhibitor therapy. The mean follow-up ranged from 3 months to 4.2 years. All-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and HF hospitalizations were significantly lower in patients treated with SGLT2 inhibitors vs placebo (hazard ratio [HR], 0.85, 0.87, and 0.77, respectively).
A composite measure of cardiovascular mortality, HF hospitalizations, or urgent HF-associated visits was also significantly reduced with SGLT2 inhibitor therapy in subgroups of patients who were men, women, aged younger than 65 years, aged 65 years and older, had an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of less than 60, had an eGFR of 60 and higher, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II, NYHA class III and higher, and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.62-0.97).
"SGLT2 [inhibitors] significantly reduce all-cause and [cardiovascular mortality] among patients with HF," the researchers concluded. "Moreover, [cardiovascular mortality] or hospitalizations [and] urgent visits for HF are consistently lowered by SGLT2 [inhibitors] across subgroups of sex, age, renal function, functional class, and [ejection fraction]."
Cardoso R, Graffunder FP, Ternes CMP, Fernandes G, Rocha AV, Bhatt D. SGLT2 inhibitors decrease cardiovascular mortality or heart failure hospitalizations in heart failure subgroups: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Presented at: American College of Cardiology 2021 Annual Meeting; May 15-17, 2021.

Q: Google Webfonts are rendering differently in Firefox, Chrome and Opera I am having some problem with Google webfonts.
I am using Google Webfont called 'Bitter'.
But in Firefox and Chrome it is being rendered differently. Chrome and Opera seem to render it in similar way. It's not drastically different but it's messing up the formatting and compositions of the paragraphs.
Here is the CSS:
.small-col h3{

color: #606060;
font-family: 'Bitter', Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-size: 16px;
line-height: 20px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
letter-spacing: -0.06em;

}

And here is a screenshot of the issue I am talking about:
http://i49.tinypic.com/2u46mpi.png
Could anyone suggest how I can get consistent rendering in both Firefox, Chrome and Opera?
Thanks

A: Fonts are never going to render the same across all browsers. They use different rendering engines—trying to get websites to look identical on every browser is a lost cause.
For your specific problem, use a non-breaking space to prevent contact and us from being separated.
<p> ... contact us </p>

A: It looks like firefox is rendering the weight a little different, and the spacing a little differently too.  Maybe try defining those numerically, as well, to override any browser defaults.  Unfortunately, different browsers and especially OSs like to render fonts differently and by their own rules at times.

A: There can be differences in font rendering between browsers, though more often, differences exist between platforms.
However, here the difference seems to be caused by letter spacing. More exactly, Firefox correctly applies it, WebKit browsers don't. For 16px font size, -0.06em should result in a little over one pixel, and if you use the inspection mode (F12, computed style), you will see that Firefox applies -1px whereas Chrome uses normal (i.e., zero) for letter-spacing. Chrome seems to have some threshold on the letter spacing value; making it just -0.065em changes things.
So especially if you prefer the Chrome rendering, just omit the letter-spacing. It is generally best to avoid letter spacing – the font designer should know better, and if you agree with her or his choices, use another font, instead of of trying to "fix" the font.
One of the differences between browsers is that Firefox applies kerning by default, other browsers don't. But this is not relevant to the specific texts in the example, since the kerning table for Bitter has pairs of uppercase letters only (so "VA" would look different, for example).

A: I had the same problem with the serif font. If you write "serif" instead of serif (without ""), Chrome will render the same as Firefox.

A: Try adding the google webfonts code to the head of your website by using the provided javascript code, instead of css or @import.
This solved my problem on this topic.
