Mercedes EQ Range Mercedes EQ Suv Release Date Updated 01/2023
During the commercial shoot, a YouTuber found out about the Mercedes EQ range and when the Mercedes EQ SUV would come out.
Start prices for the Mercedes EQ SUV are expected to be around $55,000. (Rs. 35.62 lakh). Mercedes hasn't said how much the car costs, even though it was made public on September 4, 2018. Let's look at what's happened since a YouTuber drove the concept EQC for the first time last year:
"WHAT'S INSIDE?" is a popular YouTuber. I got to drive the Mercedes EQC for a day. It is the first Mercedes-Benz EQ-Class electric car. The Mercedes EQ is still just a concept, but most of what it did was useful.

Mercedes-Benz ECQ Unveiled (First Look)
The YouTuber says that the Mercedes EQ will have a range of 500 km. The Mercedes EQ will be able to go from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 5 seconds.
Still just an idea, the electric SUV. So it didn't have headlights that worked, but it had LEDs to make up for it. The entire profile isunique yet surprisingly similar to a Mercedes coupe SUV.
The car looks like polished steel because of the paint. The whole grille is black, and strips of LEDs run across it. Inside, there are panels with holes in them, which let the LED light shine through. You can make the background light any colour you want.
The backseat passengers have a large touchscreen display built into the backrest of the front seats. Both the infotainment system and the cluster of instruments are parts of a huge widescreen. The driver gets half of it, and the other half is for maps, music, etc.
The MercedesEQ Concept has a clean sheet of glass on top to let in as much light as possible. Instead of mirrors, there are cameras on the outside of the car, and there are screens on both sides of the dashboard. The inside mirror is a screen that shows what the camera in the back is seeing right now.
As we said in our last story, the Mercedes EQ SUV will go on sale in 2019, but it will be shown off in Stockholm on September 4, 2018. (scroll down for more info). The EQC is the first EQ-Class SUV. It is the same as the C-Class and GLC. In the same way, there will be the EQA and EQS. Read: Electric Cars in the Future
We expect the price of the Mercedes EQ SUV to be $55,000 (Rs. 35.62 lakh). The GLC starts at $40,000 right now (Rs. 25.9 lakh). To keep prices down, Mercedes is also building its own battery factory.
Mercedes-Benz said that it will invest about 500 million euros in its plant in Hamburg, which is in France. This is being done because in the coming years, the Mercedes EQ line of cars will be made here.
The Daimler-owned Hamburg Plant is only used to make Smart cars. Since it opened in 1997, no Mercedes cars have come out of that factory.
Mercedes has not said exactly when production of the EQ SUV will begin. Instead, they have only said, "Preparations for the new model will start soon in Hambach."
Since 2007, the Hambach plant has been making batteries for Smart cars, which makes it a better place to make electric cars. And after 2020, Smart cars will only be able to run on electricity.
The first place to make Mercedes Electric cars is in Sindelfingen, Germany. The second one will be Hambach. Mercedes is putting a lot of money on electric cars. By 2022, they want to have ten different models of electric cars. The German company that makes cars thinks that electric cars will make up 15 to 20% of all sales.
Check out this cool video that Mercedes Benz shared, which shows how quiet the concept EQ is. Electric Vehicle fans keep saying that they will miss the sound of regular engines, but Mercedes is using that as a selling point.
(Last updated on July 18, 2018)
Mercedes-Benz knows that owning an electric car will be very different from owning other kinds of cars. Electric cars need a good ecosystem to back them up so that people will feel comfortable buying them.
Mercedes EQ will not only sell cars, but also other products and services that go with them. This includes a "wallbox" that lets you set up your own fast-charging station at home or work and a free app that lets you check on the status of your EQ car. Also, with the "charge & pay" system, it will be easy to charge your electric car at public stations. One will also be able to install a solar energy storage unit at their home or office. The EQ portfolio will cover all of these add-ons.
From the picture below, we think that the fast charging system for the wallbox will be pretty cool. To charge your Mercedes EQ, all you have to do is park over this fastcharger. Quite innovative!
Mercedes-Benz says on its website, "The mobility of the future at Mercedes-Benz will be built on four pillars: connected, autonomous, shared, and electric. Dr. Dieter Zetsche, CEO of Daimler AG and head of Mercedes-Benz cars, says, "Concept EQ is the logical combination of all four pillars." "Cars that don't make pollution are the way of the future. And our new EQ brand is about a lot more than just electric cars. EQ stands for "a complete ecosystem of electric services, technologies, and new ideas."
When cars are made from the ground up to be electric, their efficiency will go up by a lot. It will also change the way cars look a lot from how they look now.
Engineers will not have to make room for the engine and gearbox. This will give the designers more freedom of choice. Mercedes also plans to use the same architecture for more than one model, which will make the platform more flexible.
This is good for us as consumers because economies of scale will help bring down the price of electric cars.
The Mercedes-Benz EQC will be shown to the public for the first time on September 4, 2018, in Stockholm, Sweden.
Most likely, the Mercedes EQC will be shown at the US auto show in Las Vegas in November 2018. The Mercedes EQC is an electric SUV that will compete with vehicles like the Tesla Model X.
Dual motors will power the Mercedes-Benz EQC, which will be faster than most SUVs on the market right now. It will also be able to be charged quickly and will be able to drive at least 400 km. Even though the Mercedes eq release date is set for September 4, 2018, the car won't hit the market until 2019.
Motoring recently put up pictures of the Mercedes-Benz EQ C taken by spies. People say that these pictures were taken in California's Death Valley while the car was using the fast charger. A few months ago, the test mule for EQC was also seen. Look at this recent spy picture-
Just a day before the report came out, Mercedes-Benz also put out a teaser video. It uses the same test horse as EQ C. (Video Below). In the sunny Black Forest, Susie Wolff, Wilko Stark, and Michael Kelz test the Mercedes-Benz EQC (2019) in this video. These famous people also talked about their time with a fully electric Mercedes. The Jaguar i-Pace, the new Audi E-Tron, and the BMW iX3 will give the Mercedes-Benz EQ C a lot of trouble.
Mercedes keeps teasing us while we wait for the Mercedes Benz EQ C to come out on September 4. Mercedes has now released the video of Mercedes EQ C being tested in the desert in hot weather. The Mercedes electric SUV still has a lot of disguise on it.
Hot-weather testing is very important for cars because it is a harsh environment that puts the car through its paces so that it can be improved. In hot weather, electric cars can have trouble because the battery pack and motors can get too hot. Some electric cars have a way to cool the battery pack, and the Mercedes EQ C is likely to be one of them.
The production standard The EQ C is expected to have a 70 kWh battery that can power it for 300 miles. Just to be clear, the EQ C electric SUV will have two electric motors, one on each axle. This means that yes, it will be able to go 4×4. Watch the test video for hot weather:
Together, these motors should have about 400 PS of power. This can get it from 0 to 62 mph in just five seconds.
Mercedes-Benz said, "The EQC is being tested very hard and is going through a tough programme with about 500 different tests." Before the official launch, 90 prototypes and 30 pre-production cars will drive several million kilometres across four continents. Special tests are also being done on the electric drive, the battery, and how the parts of the all-wheel-drive system work together.
As the Mercedes-Benz EQ C's debut date gets closer, the German car company will start teasing their new electric SUV. On YouTube, the first teaser of the Mercedes EQC as it will look in real life has been posted.
The front of the EQC SUV is shown in this first teaser. In this teaser video, the DRL headlights are given a lot of attention. It looks like the LED stripe goes all the way to the front grille. We have never seen anything like this in a car before. Watch the sneak peek video-
The company also posted this on Twitter: "Mercedes-Benz is turning on the lights: On September 4, we will show our first all-electric Mercedes-Benz model from our new product and technology brand, EQ. Here's the first part of the design. Don't miss out!"
The Mercedes EQC will be shown off today in Stockholm, Sweden, just as planned. You can watch the press conference as it happens. Click Here (This will take you to Mercedes-Benz official website).
In Stockholm, Mercedes EQC was shown to the public. Check out our report (Production-spec Images)

Duchess Kate turns 40: What's ahead for the royal
Max Mumby/Indigo/Getty Images
(LONDON) — Duchess Kate is starting 2022 with a milestone birthday.
The Duchess of Cambridge turns 40 on Jan. 9, a birthday she is expected to celebrate privately with her family.
Kate, the wife of Prince William and a mother of three, appears to be starting her new decade with a renewed focus on her royal role.
In the nearly 11 years since she wed Prince William at Westminster Abbey, she has become one of the most popular members of Britain's royal family.
And in recent years, Kate has taken on an increasingly high-profile role in the royal family amid family changes.
At age 95, Queen Elizabeth II has scaled back her public engagements, particularly since a brief hospitalization in October. And Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan's decision to step back as senior working royals has left William and Kate, now the only working royals of their generation, to pick up more duties.
The growing public profile has been a "significant transformation" for Kate, who was thrust into the public spotlight when she started dating William while in college, according to ABC News royal contributor Victoria Murphy.
"I think her desire to do a good job, be liked by the public and respected by the family was palpable in the beginning, and she was clearly very nervous when the spotlight was on her over public speaking," said Murphy. "She built up her workload very gradually, taking on only a small number of patronages initially and taking time before making solo appearances and speeches."
"But over the years, Kate has grown hugely in confidence, and is now a driving force behind how she and William work and the causes they take on," she said.
It was Kate, for example, who had the idea to focus on mental health as a cause, according to Murphy, resulting in the very successful Heads Together campaign that launched in 2016 and continues to be a focus of William and Kate's work to this day.
As the Cambridges prepare to one day become king and queen consort, Murphy says the public can expect to see Kate grow even more in her role as she zeroes in on causes close to her heart.
"I've always thought that Kate is a team player, cool-headed and a good listener, and that these things have stood her in good stead over the year," said Murphy. "I think she also very much has the ability to compartmentalize, as it has been said the queen does, which is an important quality in handling the pressures of the public role."
Since becoming a mom eight years ago, Kate has focused much of her attention on supporting new parents and young children.
In early 2020, just before the start of the coronavirus pandemic, Kate launched a nationwide survey to explore what people in the U.K. think about raising children, with a focus on kids under age 5.
Then in June of last year, the duchess launched the Royal Foundation Center for Early Childhood, which she said is designed to "raise awareness of why the first five years of life are just so important for our future life outcomes, and what we can do as a society to embrace this golden opportunity to create a happier, more mentally healthy, more nurturing society."
At the same time, Kate and the Royal Foundation, William and Kate's charitable arm, released "Big Change Starts Small," a research report on early childhood development.
Kate has also focused much of her work on making sure the outdoors are included in kids' early development. She helped design a "Back to Nature" garden at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2019, and the next year was named joint president of the U.K. Scout Association, marking the first time a royal woman has held the title of president or joint president of the Scouts.
"I think what has changed in the last few years is that it has become really clear what Kate's main areas of work are in a way that feels much more focused and immersive," said Murphy. "She has always been interested in the outdoors and in young people, but the fact that she is making those areas cornerstones of her work have become a lot more obvious."
Murphy said Kate's commitment to the cause of early childhood education is particularly striking, noting, "It's a challenging and very broad area but she has shown a real and serious commitment to it over a long period of time that I think has earned her a lot of respect from people who work in this field."
During the pandemic, Kate offered support for parents and students and teachers, and spoke about the experience of quarantining with and leading virtual learning for her own children, Prince George, 8, Princess Charlotte, 6, and Prince Louis, 3.
The glimpse Kate provided into her and William's home life is just one example of how the duchess' growing confidence has allowed her to be more at ease, according to Murphy.
Kate and William launched a YouTube channel last year, where they share more behind-the-scenes content. And in 2020, Kate gave a rare interview to a motherhood-focused podcast, where she opened up about experiencing mom guilt.
"The [podcast] was a brave move because it could have backfired if people had been critical of the fact she has access to a lot more help than most," said Murphy. "But it ended up being one of the best things she could have done because it really made it clear how hands-on a mother she is and the relatable way she is raising her three children."
Kate has also been more public in recent years about her own passions, whether that is participating in sports, like the tennis game that Kate, an avid fan, played with U.S. Open winner Emma Raducanu last year, or photography.
Kate, a college art major who is often the photographer behind family photos shared with the public, last year launched a photography project, "Hold Still," to capture life during the coronavirus pandemic.
The photographs were compiled in a book in collaboration with the National Portrait Gallery, of which Kate is a patron.
More recently, in December, Kate hosted her first Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey, honoring people and organizations who supported their communities during the pandemic.
During the concert, Kate delivered a surprise performance, showing off one of her unknown passions, piano playing, when she accompanied singer Tom Walker.
"These things show a willingness to put herself out there and to let us see more of who she is and what she enjoys," said Murphy.
And while Kate seems to be most in her element when outdoors or with kids, she is also happy to embrace the "glamorous side of royal life," according to Murphy.
She stunned in a gold evening gown at the world premiere of the latest James Bond movie in September, and won praise the next month for wearing a recycled Alexander McQueen gown at the inaugural Earthshot Prize Awards.
"Over the years there has been much excitement when she has worn tiaras from the queen's collection," said Murphy. "And even a decade into her public role, she still easily commands all the front pages whenever she makes a red carpet appearance."

A locals casino is a casino designed primarily to attract residents of the area in which it was built rather than tourists or vacationers. The term is most commonly associated with casinos in Nevada, United States, to distinguish them from casinos that target mostly tourists in a central area. Locals casinos tend to operate under slightly different business models than those frequented by tourists, most notably having lower house advantages.

Locals casinos may also have amenities to appeal to tourists, such as lodging, truck parking, and expanded dining options. Many traditional tourist casinos have tried to appeal to locals, sometimes offering more generous comps for local residents, and providing community-oriented amenities such as shopping options and movie theaters that are the typical hallmarks of locals casinos.

Due to conventions related to calculating casino revenue, the term is sometimes used generally and casually to describe any casino outside of the Las Vegas Strip, whether or not its primary clientele are locals or tourists or both.

Overview
Locals casinos can range from locations with fewer than 15 machines such as supermarkets, convenience stores, gas stations, bars or lounges with no lodging, to resorts that have hundreds of machines and hotels with hundreds of rooms. Larger locals casinos in the Las Vegas Valley include the M Resort, South Point, Silverton, the two Arizona Charlie's casinos, all or most of the casinos owned and operated by Boyd Gaming, and all or most of those owned and operated by Station Casinos.

Attracting residents
In order to attract residents to gamble, locals casinos try to differentiate themselves from tourist-oriented casinos to benefit gamblers. For example, locals casinos usually have a different mix of games or offer games not typically found in tourist-oriented casinos in the area, such as bingo. Additionally, they offer table games with lower minimum bets, as well as lower denomination slot machines and video poker.

In addition, table games rules are frequently adjusted to decrease the house advantage and the payout percentage on slot and video poker machines is increased; locals casinos are well known for offering more full-pay video poker machines and even machines that pay more than 100%.

Locals casinos will typically offer comps, such as free meals at the casino's restaurants, at a higher rate than tourist-oriented casinos. Additionally, many locals casinos have promotions such as payroll check cashing, frequently accompanied by some type of free play bonus, to get patrons into the casino. In Nevada, this is usually expanded with special promotions to cash tax refund checks from the Internal Revenue Service.

Locals casinos often act as community centers and frequently include non-gambling entertainment such as bowling alleys, movie theaters, ice skating rinks and child care centers.

Revenue of casinos
The revenue of locals casinos in Clark County, Nevada, is normally calculated by taking the revenue of Clark County and subtracting the revenue of the four tourist areas (the Strip, Downtown, Laughlin and Mesquite). This is the only realistic calculation available since the Nevada Gaming Commission does not provide more detail. However, this calculation will include some properties like Gold Strike, Hoover Dam Lodge, Primm Valley Resorts and all of the various casinos in Laughlin and Mesquite as "locals casino" even though they have many guests who are visiting the area.

Survey research shows about 40% of security operations centers (SOCs) have implemented threat hunting programs. These programs are aimed at catching emerging or advanced threats that have been missed by traditional tools.
Sophisticated threat actors are cognizant of the techniques many commercial security tools use, and so they work to evade detection. Even newer tools, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, aren't perfect, according to Tim Crothers.
He points out these tools are effective at finding variations of known threats, but if the threat is new, or the approach novel, there isn't a variation to be detected. This is where advanced threat actors excel and why threat hunting has become such an important SOC initiative.
Mr. Crothers, a trainer, speaker and author with a long history in cybersecurity, recently presented his insights on threat hunting during a webinar hosted by Bricata. The webinar titled, Threat Hunting: Finding Hidden & Undetected Network Threats, demonstrated some simple but effective threat hunting tips.
5) Repeat the process and refine.
During this more recent session, he provided advanced techniques for carrying out those five steps. The link to a recording and some of our takeaways follows below.
Threat hunting tip #1: Look for tunneled communications.
A good source of adversarial activity to hunt for are indications of command and control (C2). More specifically, look for activity that is trying to emulate normal traffic, such as tunneled communications, where one network protocol is used to carry another. For example, threat actors will embed their communications in DNS traffic because many corporate firewalls permit outbound DNS traffic.
Threat hunting tip #2: Identify specific attributes.
When you've identified a threat, be sure to next research the characteristics of that threat and look for unique attributes such as a specific URL used. The more specific the attributes you can find, the easier it can be to identify when you sort and filter the dataset later. If your organization employs a red team or penetration testing team, this group can help produce forensic artifacts that are helpful for specifying such attributes.
Threat hunting tip #3: Scope your data.
Networks logs, data logs or even the SIEM are good sources of data for threat hunting – but you must put parameters around the data volume you are going to sift. Mr. Crothers recommends a week's worth and certainly no more than a month's worth of data. The key is to choose data sources that are likely to match the activity for which you are looking. In the webinar, he uses logs generated by the Zeek IDS (formerly known as Bro IDS), which is one of three detection technologies integrated into the Bricata platform.
Threat hunting tip #4: Take a wide pass at the data first.
It's important to take a high-level pass at filtering the data and avoiding the instinct to immediately investigate in depth the first thing that catches your eye. Instead, use that first pass to bookmark those items that look interesting and then prioritize these when you are finished with the first pass. The Bricata platform provides a collaborative tool we call the "shoebox" feature for this purpose. The shoebox is a pre-digital era reference to gumshoe detectives that would store evidence collected in a shoe-sized box as an investigation was carried out.
Threat hunting tip #5: Use sorting techniques to narrow hunt.
Sorting is essential to narrowing down the data set and homing in on possible threats. For example, sort the data set from smallest to largest byte and then center your efforts on the larger file sizes. Another technique is to sort by HTTP method. For example, PUT is an HTTP method available that is not commonly used for web traffic, which makes it a good tip for sorting threat hunting data. Importantly, sorting also includes visualization and the complete webinar recording (link below) will show you how to use visualization techniques to spot communication pattern irregularities that merit investigation.
Threat hunting tip #6: Filter out known good.
Once you've taken an initial pass at the dataset, you are in a better position to filter out "known good." Known good is network traffic to-and-from sources and destinations you can rule out as normal communications. The caveat here is you don't want to make assumptions that cause you to exclude traffic worth a closer look.
Threat hunting tip #7: Look for service oddities.
Service oddities are network anomalies – a port or protocol being used in a way that is rare or unusual. For example, Port 443 is typically used for TLS/SSL traffic. Therefore, HTTP traffic on Port 443 or SSL traffic that is not on that port are prime examples of service oddities.
Since you are hunting for adversarial activity, the process of threat hunting will give you to the chance to examine your IT environment from the perspective of a threat actor. You may not always find a threat over the course of your hunts, but you will almost assuredly find misconfigurations, network anomalies and potential weaknesses by virtue of the exercise. The knowledge gleaned through threat hunting holds value because you can use it to strengthen your overall cybersecurity defenses.
The full webinar was recorded and is available for viewing on-demand with registration. Mr. Crothers walks users through these tips using practical examples you or your team can start using immediately. It runs just under an hour in length and can be found here: Threat Hunting: Finding Hidden & Undetected Network Threats.

Aggravated? Do what any mother of a tantrum-y toddler would do, and put yourself down for a quick snooze. Taking a nap can help you deal with minor frustrations, a new study suggests.
University of Michigan psychologists make the case for a workplace nap room in an upcoming issue of the journal Personality and Individual Differences. In the study, a group of research subjects took a midday nap after participating in computer-based tasks specifically designed to frustrate them.
Four geometric designs are presented successively on a computer screen. Participants are directed to recopy the diagram on a piece of paper, without tracing over any line twice and without lifting the pencil from the paper. Half of each set of designs was unsolvable.
While the 40 participants initially spent equal time attempting to conquer the unsolvable puzzles the scientists put before them, a one-hour nap made people more likely to continue spending time on the problem, while non-nappers (who watched a nature documentary for an hour instead) were more likely to give up. The nappers also reported that they felt less impulsive after having a snooze. The subjects had kept a consistent sleep schedule for the few days before the study, and the groups were randomized to control for age, habitual feelings of sleepiness, and other factors.
The nappers' abilities to press on with a difficult task suggests that they were better equipped deal with frustration after they slept.
Patience seems to be finite, just like willpower. Just as people are more likely to cheat and make irrational decisions after a long day, when their mental resources are running low, they also may be more willing to throw up their hands and say, "Enough! This is impossible." With a quick nap though, they will keep working, even on an exasperating task. Of course, this might not translate to the outside world. These subjects probably weren't lying awake mulling over their inane geometry task like you might obsess over an insurmountable work assignment.

Sydney man gets jail term for assault over alleged affair involving former Screaming Eagles assistant coach
Court news - Contributed
SYDNEY, N.S. —
A Sydney man who attacked another man over a perceived notion the man was having an affair with his wife is to serve a 90-day jail term followed by probation.
Gary Trevor Sudds, 45, of Grovesnor Crescent will be allowed to serve his sentence on weekends beginning July 19. After his sentence, he is to complete a two-year probation period during which he is perform 240 hours of community service and donate $1,000 to charity.
Sudds was also ordered to submit a DNA sample to the national registry and pay restitution in the amount of $900 to the victim.
He was sentenced after pleading guilty previously to charges of unlawful entry and mischief over $5,000. A charge of assault was dismissed.
He was charged in connection with an incident Jan. 1, 2018, during which he smashed out the windows of a 2010 Chevrolet Equinox owned by Brent Hughes and later entered the home of Hughes and viciously assaulted him.
"He violated the sanctity of someone's home. He should have known better than to act out in the way he did."
— Provincial Court Judge Ann Marie MacInnes
Hughes suffered multiple cuts and bruising along with a mild concussion, a chipped tooth and broken ribs.
The two men were well known to each other as Hughes, a former assistant coach with the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles major junior hockey club, stayed with the Sudds family prior to securing his own home. Hughes and head coach Marc Andre Dumont were let go in April by the team in a decision unrelated to the court case.
Defence lawyer Tony Mozvik had previously told the court his client was motivated by fear in that he viewed Hughes as threat to the security of his family. Sudds' wife, Angela, who has accompanied her husband to all his court appearances, and Hughes have denied any romantic link, said Mozvik. The couple has three children.
The court was told that Sudds, who had been drinking at the time, first contacted Hughes, asking where he was going to be later in the day. Sudds then travelled to the location and smashed out the windows of Hughes' vehicle.
He again texted Hughes later, posing as his wife, requesting his house number, which Hughes provided.
Sudds arrived at the home and assaulted Hughes.
In passing sentence Thursday, provincial court Judge Ann Marie MacInnes said there was planning and deception by Sudds, who travelled between two separate locations to commit his crimes.
"He violated the sanctity of someone's home. He should have known better than to act out in the way he did," said MacInnes, adding his conduct was criminal and unacceptable.
Among the conditions of his probation, Sudds is to refrain from alcohol and drugs not prescribed him and is to have no contact with Hughes.
The court received several support letters on Sudds' behalf, all expressing shock over the nature of the offence. Sudds was described as a hard worker, good father and consummate community volunteer. He also fully co-operated with police.

New state senators aim for early wins with old legislation
Sponsoring bills give freshmen New York lawmakers early "wins."
Gov. Andrew Cuomo signs voting reform legislation flanked by Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul (left), Assemblyman Charles Lavine, state Senators Zellnor Myrie and James Sanders Jr., and Ben Stiller. Office of the Governor
John Bonacic
Not every state senator gets to start off a new legislative session by receiving a standing ovation, but that was the reality on Jan. 14 for incoming state Sen. Zellnor Myrie. The Democrat from Brooklyn sat in his red, cushioned leather chair in the state Senate chambers, while colleagues surrounded him to offer handshakes, hugs and smiles.
How did he earn these plaudits? The chamber had just passed a bill to implement early voting statewide and even some Republican lawmakers joined in as the Senate applauded Myrie for 22 seconds in recognition that he had just passed his first bill. It was the type of moment that could play well later on in campaign commercials and the campaign stump – the idea that on Day One, Myrie made big things happen for his constituents. "I have a feeling," state Senate Deputy Majority Leader Mike Gianaris said on the Senate floor, "We are going to be doing this a lot this year, because we have some many new members."
By the end of the following week, fellow freshman senators Julia Salazar and Jen Metzger also saw prominent legislation pass with their names at the top. While these bills – the Comprehensive Contraception Coverage Act and the "Boss Bill" respectively – dealt with expanding access to contraception, they were similar to Myrie's bill in two fundamental ways: they all passed by large margins and none of them were originally sponsored by the new senators. Instead, they were submitted by someone else in the previous legislative session: state Sen. Brian Kavanagh, for the voting reform bill, and Republican State Sen. John Bonacic and state Senator Liz Krueger for Salazar's and Metzger's, respectively.
Lawmakers swapping bill sponsorships isn't new. But it has reached an unprecedented level in the Senate this year through the combination of a hefty backlog of old bills blocked by the previous GOP majority and a 15-person roster of newly elected Democrats. In a legislative session when Democrats have passed a slate of high-profile bills, not a single new Assembly Democrat has sponsored any of them, while in the Senate, the list of new lawmakers with nominally big achievements to their names keeps growing. These bills have given the newcomers early legislative achievements, fodder for later campaigns, and have helped cement unity between the Senate leadership and the senators who helped it win their strongest hold on the chamber in more than a century.
"It's relationships," said political consultant Jake Dilemani, who has worked with Myrie, state Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and other Democrats in the past. "It's Andrea and it's Gianaris starting the year off on the right foot, trying to build a strong united conference that they can maintain for not just the next two years, but also after that."
New state senators are sponsoring bills big and small – and not always from the left. By sponsoring a bill previously sponsored by state Senate Minority Leader John Flanagan that would cap property tax increases, for example, state Sen. James Gaughran will earn some political capital from Long Island voters. "Taxes, taxes and taxes," said Larry Levy, executive dean of Hofstra University's National Center for Suburban Studies, of the priorities of Gaughran's constituents. But Gaughran has not stopped there. He has also picked up a bill that was sponsored by Republican Assemblyman Andrew Raia. The bill, which requires "propeller guards on instructional vessels," might not generate headlines, but "politically, it's a no-brainer," to sponsor a bill that shields children from injury, said Levy.
Other freshmen senators are primed to benefit politically by reintroducing or modifying old bills. State Sen. Kevin Thomas found a bill to protect babies from the dangers of infant walkers that was proposed by Assemblywoman Amy Paulin last year. State Sen. Monica Martinez is the latest senator to seek a crack down on revenge porn, picking up a bill sponsored last year by Republican Sen. Phil Boyle. Stewart-Cousins handed off a 2018 bill abolishing the sub-minimum wage for tipped workers to state Sen. Jessica Ramos, while state Sen. Andrew Gounardes gets to sponsor a bill regulating physicians sponsored by his controversial 2018 Republican opponent former state Sen. Marty Golden. State Sen. James Skoufis is giving new life to a bill limiting the room temperatures of public schools, originally championed by the deceased state Sen. Jose Peralta. While it does not involve bill sponsorship, state senators Skoufis, Salazar and Alessandra Biaggi will also chair upcoming hearings on sexual harassment that will give them a large amount of attention early in their terms.
"The new members are the future and they want to get something done. Re-election is only two years away," political consultant George Arzt said. "The fact that they have sponsored a bill shows that they have the faith of leadership and I think that is really important to the voters – all you have to say is you sponsored this piece of legislation."
Overall, the number of bills passed by new senators is roughly in proportion to their representation among the majority conference. The notably high level of involvement of first-time senators in sponsoring legislation and helping to shepherd it through the committee process is one early sign that the new Senate majority is giving its new members opportunities to share in the limelight as Democrats aim to redefine the Senate in a more progressive image. "The new Senate majority is committed to breaking down barriers and hitting the ground running," Senate majority spokesman Gary Ginsburg said.
You'd expect notorious attention seekers such as state senators to refuse to hand over their bill, and the credit that comes with it, to a freshman. When asked whether he had ever witnessed lawmakers jealously guard bill sponsorships in the past, Democratic state Sen. Brad Hoylman said he had, while declining to provide specifics. However, he added that the members who are excited to finally win the majority want to protect it.
Some senior lawmakers could be reluctant to give up the sponsorships of favorite bills, and the credit and attention that goes with it, to new senators. When asked whether he had ever witnessed lawmakers jealously guard bill sponsorships in the past, Democratic state Sen. Brad Hoylman appeared to acknowledge that he had. "I laugh," he said, chuckling. "But at the end of the day you got to take a step back and see the big picture," Hoylman said. "There's enough credit to go around."
Three weeks into the legislative session, the opportunity for freshman lawmakers to say they had an immediate impact on legislation has been limited to those whose bills got the greenlight from Senate majority leadership. For the time being, new senators who have yet to sponsor bills, new or old, have yet to publicly share any dissatisfaction. "They were already being sponsored," said Sen. Rachel May. "I just want to pass ... the DREAM Act and voting rights."
Many of the new senators have gotten bill sponsorships through the committee assignments they received and discussions with conference leadership. Myrie got his chance to sponsor the early voting bill during discussions at Senate Democrats' December retreat in Albany. That is where he expressed his interest in taking on the bill, in part because he was the newly-appointed chairman of the Committee on Elections. "We had the opportunity to express to the leadership the things that we were passionate about," Myrie said. "I felt that early voting would be a great place to start." Kavanagh stepped aside as Myrie added some minor tweaks to the bill and got ready to debate the legislation on the Senate floor. "I was really nervous because this was going to be the first thing that the conference was going to tackle," Myrie said.
Although he did not come up with the idea of bringing early voting to New York, as the sponsor of the bill, Myrie had to defend it on the floor against Republican attacks. Although the outcome of the vote was never really in doubt, Myrie went through the motions of explaining the bill's merits and how he thinks it would open up the democratic process so that more people can vote. While he got recognition from his colleagues once the legislation passed, Myrie's true reward might still await him when he runs again in 2020. Mixing metaphors Myrie said, "many of us are really taking the ball in the ninth inning and getting it across. It's going to be significant to go back to the people in the 20th district and say look I'm doing what you voted for me to do."
Correction: A previous version of this story mixed up two bills sponsored by Democratic state Sen. James Gaughran that were previously sponsored state Republican Sen. John Flanagan and Republican Assemblyman Andrew Raia.
NEXT STORY: Think lawmakers have a say in the state budget? Think again.


Voting is underway in Scotland's historic independence referendum Thursday, and the atmosphere at the polls is electric. Scots began lining up to vote before the polls even opened at 7 a.m. BST (2 a.m. ET), to have their say on whether Scotland should stay in the U.K. or become an independent nation. And with over 4.2 million people registered to vote, a historically high turnout is expected.
The historic vote marks the first time in British history that 16- and 17-year-olds can cast their ballot, and plenty of young voters turned up before the school day began. There have been older first-time voters too — with 97% of Scotland's electorate registered to make a yes-or-no choice in the referendum, political apathy has been cast aside for the vote. Excluding undecided voters, the latest Ipsos Mori poll shows a slight strengthening of the No lead – 53% to 47% in the Yes camp. Still, this poll also shows that 4% of voters are still undecided as some Scots turned up at polling stations only to decide to return in a few hours. That means both sides of the debate are continuing to campaign for votes.
2,609 polling places are open Thursday and will close at 10 p.m. local time, or 5 p.m. ET. Anyone still in line at this time will be allowed to cast their vote, but counting will begin almost immediately. Votes from some of the more remote regions of Scotland – particularly islands off the coast – will be collected by helicopters and boats, but bad weather could delay the receipt of these ballot boxes. Recounts will only be allowed at a local level if there are concerns about the voting process. Results from the first local authorities will start rolling in at 2 a.m. local time, but the final announcement is expected between 6:30 and 7:30 local time Friday morning.


Nice newly paved community road. Its all about LOCATION, LOCATION, Easy access to Ocean City and surrounding beaches. Newer home with large open floor plan. Plenty of parking on your concrete driveway for your company, and a detached garage and shed. Nice tilted windows, full size laundry room, Armstrong flooring, walk in closet, and plenty of storage.

California adopts nonemergency COVID vaccination and testing rules
Posted by Jon Elliott on Mon, Jan 23, 2023
Since 2021, occupational safety and health agencies have enacted a variety of rules addressing the workplace hazards of the COVID-19 pandemic. Agencies have generally used their emergency authority, which allow more administrative leeway to speed enactment but then require automatic expiration within months (although re-enactments are possible). I've written about a number of these efforts, including the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) "emergency temporary standard (ETS)," which was stymied by litigation (see HERE). Some states have enacted their own ETSs; California adopted its own ETS and then readopted it every 180 days in order to keep rules in force (see HERE).
In December 2022, California's Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board replaced the state's ETS with "non-emergency" rules designed to remain in place for 2 years. Most of the changes are editorial and procedural, but some directly affect employer responsibilities. Assuming the revised rules receive administrative approval this month, they will be enforced by Division of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH, but universally called Cal/OSHA) as replacements for California's ETS. The remainder of this note summarizes these newly revised and extended requirements, noting changes from the most recent ETS.
How are California's COVID-19 rules organized?
The proposed rules span four sections of Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR):
3205.1, 3205.2, and 3205.3 COVID-19 Prevention
1 Multiple COVID-19 Infections and COVID-19 Outbreaks
2 COVID-19 Prevention in Employer-Provided Housing
3 COVID-19 Prevention in Employer-Provided Transportation
Who is subject to the standards?
The newly proposed regulations apply to all "employees and places of employment," except the following:
Work locations with one employee who does not have contact with other persons.
Employees working from home.
Employees in a variety of healthcare settings with occupational exposure to "aerosol transmissible diseases" (covered by 8 CCR 5199).
Employees teleworking from a location of their own choice, not under the employer's control.
Note that this definition is based on employees, not employers, so the standards apply to any employer with one or more covered employees.
Most requirements focus on an "exposed group" of employees. The new non-emergency rules expand the regulatory definition for this term beyond workplaces to include employer-provided transportation and housing; the term now "means all employees at a work location, working area, or a common area at work, within employer-provided transportation …, or residing within housing …, where an employee COVID-19 case was present at any time during the infectious period."
What must employers do?
The latest revisions expressly declare COVID-19 to be a "workplace hazard", which is therefore subject to California employers' general duty to protect employees, and to provide comprehensive Injury and Illness Prevention Programs (IIPPs; I discussed them HERE). This represents a change from the latest ETS, which required employers to establish, implement, and maintain an effective, written COVID-19 Prevention Program, and gave them to option to incorporate that program into their general-purpose IIPP. In the context of the IIPP, employees are responsible for the following
consider all persons to be potentially infectious, regardless of symptoms, vaccination status, or negative COVID-19 test results
review applicable orders and guidance related to COVID-19 from the State of California and the local health department, and treat COVID-19 as an airborne infectious disease
apply COVID-19 prevention controls include remote work, physical distancing, reducing the density of people indoors, moving indoor tasks outdoors, implementing separate shifts and/or break times, restricting access to the work area, and other prevention measures, in addition to the requirements in the revised COVID-19 rules
provide employees with training about COVID-19 and its hazards
investigate any COVID-19 illness at work
establish "effective methods and/or procedures for responding to a COVID-19 case at the workplace", including exclusion of infected individuals and free testing at least weekly of every member of an exposed group from the time the exposure is known until 14 days after all members test negative (control methods are detailed in section 3205.1)
provide notice to and testing of all "close contacts" of a case
provide face covers and ensure they are worn when required by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH)
provide respirators for voluntary use
review and ensure the adequacy of workplace ventilation
evaluate the need for respirators if any "aerosolizing procedure" is undertaken
provide required record keeping and reporting (following general I&I requirements)
comply with any additional order by Cal/OSHA
Employers must also comply with additional targeted requirements applicable because of any of the following:
"COVID-19 outbreak" (8 CCR 3205.1)
Employer-provided housing (8 CCR 3205.2)
Employer-provided transportation (8 CCR 3205.3)
Cal/OSHA anticipates formal approval of these rules during January 2023, after which they will remain in force for two years. Organizations with employees in California must comply with these requirements, and employers outside California should consider voluntary programs consistent with these requirements. Note that California is one of the few states to require an IIPP; employers in most of the US should consider OSHA's recommendations to establish and implement comprehensive safety and health programs.
If the organization has employees in California, has it reviewed its COVID-19 prevention activities to ensure they comply with the latest requirements?
If the organization has no employees in California, has it implemented COVID-19 prevention and response procedures?

Not yet designated terrorist by a Western country
Base of operations: Syria, Iraq
Background: Website
Harakat al-Nujaba (Movement of the Noble Ones; or more fully: Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba) is an Iraqi Shi'a militia organization that first came to light in 2013 and has deployed to both Syria and Iraq, the former as part of aiding Assad regime forces against rebels and the latter to fight the renewed Sunni Arab insurgency. Harakat al-Nujaba shows affinity with both Iran and Hezbollah. The boundaries with other Iranian-aligned militias in Iraq- namely Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq and Kata'ib Hezbollah- are in reality not so distinct here, as the leader himself has a known history in Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq. Harakat al-Nujaba has multiple military 'subdivisions' such as Liwa Ammar ibn Yasir (named after one of Imam Ali's closest companions), Liwa al-Hamad & Liwa al-Imam al-Hasan al-Mojtaba.

Spirulina For Weight Loss- Are you fed up of your weight? Have you tried FAD diets? Are you tired of eating food supplements which have lead your body into bad health? Have you heard about this Super Food – Spirulina?
This article with help you know about this Super Food which can help you achieve your weight loss target in a healthy way.
Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae that is rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, and antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage and also boost up your immunity. It contains nutrients, including B complex vitamins, beta-carotene, vitamin E, manganese, zinc, copper, iron, selenium, and gamma linolenic acid (an essential fatty acid).
Diets high in nutrient-dense protein-rich foods like spirulina promote weight loss. Because Spirulina takes more energy to metabolize, for example, eating protein helps maintain lean tissue and contributes to fat burning the same way Spirulina works on the fat of your body. It can also curb hunger and overweight people seem to benefit the most. To maximize this benefit, try eating your high protein spirulina in the morning or during mid-day before meals instead of at night.
Conquers Appetite: When you feel hungry your body is creating this effect because it is looking to fill its own need for nutrients. When you feed yourself poor-quality foods regularly, your brain will trigger your appetite in an effort to find what it wants, according to the Spirulina World website. Spirulina will increase the concentration of nutrients in your body and may reduce hunger pangs and cravings for food. One will feel satisfied, full and hunger is calmed down. This will reduce your calorie intake and give your body the nutrients which it actually needs.
High in Protein Content: Consumption of spirulina on a regular basis is ideal for building muscle due to its high-protein content. Spirulina contains up to 70 percent protein depending on growing conditions, as well as all the eight essential amino acids. The digestive absorption of the protein in Spirulina is four times greater than that of non vegetarian food sources. Easily digestible protein in conjunction with an exercise plan will help build lean muscle mass, which will help your body burn more calories throughout the day and hence aids weight loss.
Low in Calories: Spirulina is low in calorie as it a dense source of protein. Regular consumption of spirulina will provide you with a good portion of your daily nutritional needs, without any caloric consequences. This is the reason is considered safe and beneficial for people aiming at weight loss.
Essential Fatty Acids: Spirulina is a rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids, and GLA, or gamma linolenic acid. The greatest concentration of gamma linolenic acid found anywhere is in breast milk, as it is used for the brain development of the growing baby. Gamma linolenic acid can also help regulate your blood sugar levels and controls insulin levels, which will in turn minimize the carbohydrate and help you lose weight faster.
Lowers cholesterol and helps to lose weight: It can help lower down the cholesterol levels and help to lose weight. The abnormal levels of lipids in the blood stream increases the risk of heart diseases and stroke in diabetic patients. Spirulina, when taken daily, can decrease the blood glucose levels, total cholesterol and improves HDL cholesterol in the body and reduce the inflation that can be the cause of cholesterol accumulating in the bloodstream. Spirulina can also help to reduce the elevated blood pressure.
Detox for the Body: Spirulina when consumed on regular basis has shown to remove toxins from the body. This detoxification enhances liver enzymes and protects liver from the harmful effect of toxins, when liver works properly it in turn improves your metabolism. Improved metabolism helps one lose weight faster.
Doses: A standard dose is 500 mg ingested 4 to 6 times a day. Powdered spirulina can be added directly to juice, smoothies, shakes, milk or water and can be consumed before meals. Spirulina is also available as tablets and can be consumed as per the doses mentioned on the bottle.
When to Take it: The most ideal time to consume Spirulina for weight reduction is before a meal, it can be 15 – 30 minutes before having your daily meals. The idea to consume Spirulina before meals is to suppress the appreciate and making a little room for the food you eat and keep the portion size under control. Consuming it before meals will suppress your urge to overeat thereby decreasing your portion size.
Spirulina has the potential to stimulate the immune system of our body. For most of the people, Spirulina is an excellent supplement which is loaded with benefits, but individuals who have particular autoimmune conditions, such as multiple sclerosis and arthritis, generally should not take Spirulina for weight loss, because it can aggravate these conditions. It also can interact with a number of medications prescribed for immune system suppression, such as mycophenolate, mexotrexate and cyclosporine. People with phenylketonuria, a condition that makes it hard for someone to handle phenylalanine, an amino acid the algae and other foods contain, also should avoid this product. The supplement contains high levels of Vitamin K, so it isn't good for people who are on anticoagulant medication. Although there is no such study found but it should also be avoided by pregnant and lactating women.
In today's time almost everybody is relying on the goodness of this protein supplement and you should try too. Spirulina is a great choice for people looking for a healthier option to reduce weight.
One has no need to skip meals or work-out day and night at the gym. Combining the advised doses of Spilrulina with regular workout regime and a healthy diet will help one achieve the goal of losing weight faster.

Well, we survived. Mostly intact. Indeed, we chose the three hottest days on the planet for our garage sale. But there was just no turning back, baby.
On set-up day, I found myself wandering out to the garage numerous times, whereupon I would look at the hot disorganized mess in front of me, slide slowly into a trance, then turn and head back inside. My brain underwent a rare type of paralysis induced by extreme heat and wimpy-ness.
On day one of our sale, my ankles started to swell.
On day two, I wore a sports bra under my tank top like it was a normal thing to do. Just the thought of hardware of any kind...I simply couldn't hack it.
Customers kept say, "There's a cold front coming in on Sunday!" I wanted to cut them.
But then there was this. Help me. Can your heart take the cuteness? My friend Sasha told me about the Lemon:Aid project through Bloodwater Mission so I got a kit and put the kids to work. They spent Friday morning serving up cups of Countrytime for donations. Ruby kept shouting, "Free lemonade! I mean...."
In the end, they earned $72, which will provide clean water for 72 kids for one year. It was so much fun to watch them get excited about it. They are learning at a very young age that they have a responsibility to act on behalf of the powerless. Beautiful.
Meanwhile, we came dangerously close to death in the tomb-like garage.
And now, here I sit, watching Rick Bayless make ceviche on PBS at 12:22 in the ayem. And I don't even like ceviche.
I'm terribly uncool when it comes to sushi. You just might as well know it.
Also, I've never had my eyebrows waxed. Like, ever.
I don't understand the fuss about Katy Perry.
I want people to stop picking on Jessica Simpson.
I tried to wear my apron skirt to the sale and it wouldn't zip all the way.
I need my fingernails to be short. Always, always short. When I make a fist, I must not feel them on my palm. It is imperative.
And on that note, I shall retire to my boudoire. Which reminds me: I need to tell you about the housecoat I bought at the SV.
I am old and weird.
You make my day. : ) Just sayin'.
So glad you made it! I thought about you all weekend as we melted into puddles here in VA. I don't even know how you did it; I'm pretty sure I would've wimped out and just given everything away willy-nilly. However, your actual survival is encouraging to me as my veryown completely unorganized yard sale is this upcoming Saturday.
I'm sorry to hear the sun blazed down upon your yardsale.....way to stick it out! Do here in Texas, we've been roasting too, and today when I was attempting to save a baby goat who became a little too overly confident and got his head stuck in some fencing, I felt all 110 degrees of it.
I'm a redhead, so I freckle.
I earned a few new freckles today.
YOu are so funny. I live in Ohio and I can't believe you had a yard sale this past weekend. I wanted to cry just going to get our mail. I even thought about people have yard sales when I saw signs in our town, "Oh, you poor people trying to have a yard sale today. ARE YOU CRAZY?!?!?!?!?" HAHA kidding. You are brave. The lemon-aid stand is priceless, what a beautiful activity for them. I may have to look that one up for my kiddos. The eyebrows? I am a waxing virgin as well. I have always thought since I have light (now partially light with gray highlights) hair that I never needed waxing because you couldn't see my eyebrows. Now I will look in the rear-view mirror in my car and about have an accident when I see them in natural light. Holy cow. I now store tweezers in my purse. How long have they been like this and nobody told me? Hope you have a great week... I am sitting on my sun porch right now and it is definitely cooler outside!
I am swooning for the apron skirt!!!
If I had a garage sale over those days everything would have had to be 1 cent. Math would have been impossible...lol "This is your brain, forget the drugs."
Glad you survived...you do always bring a smile to my face. Maybe because I keep thinking..."Me too!"
glad you survived! it was a hot one! We decided to clean up the yard in the heat..was real smart.I just kept saying to myself.. surely all this sweat is shedding pounds.I hoped at least.
YES!! LOVE the Lemon:Aid stand. Great way to get the kiddos involved on their level.
Very cool about the lemonade.
My first husband and I bought that exact, same oak table. Or at least the chairs; I recognize the chairs. My brother and SIL have had it for the last 8 years. It's held up really well. I went formica only to turn around and go pine...b/c my kids destroyed the formica.
I seriously don't know how you did it. We have been in hibernation for some time now. What a great lesson for the littles to learn. I have to go trim my nails now. Thanks for the reminder. I am also a member of the short nail club.
you survived...now could you please come and help me organize my garage sale?
Thank You for being obedient in answering Gods call to build a well and provide fresh water to those with out it. I know that one of my own "littles" will never be the same because of it. He has discovered his "burden."
I am old and weird. You are young and weird.
dude. the blue shelf? why can't you ship to oregon?!
i'm with you on katy, sushi and jessica, and eyebrows. we must be soul sistas.
It's not normal to wear a sports bra under tank tops? Seriously? You been living under a rock or what! I, of the liberated and hot-blooded sort, have been doing it since forever and I thought the rest of the world did, too.
Another option: skip the bra all together. It feels mahvelous!
We are selling some things via Craiglist these days - a little bit each week until our garage is purged. I just can't stand the thought of sitting in 100 degree heat - I'm a wimp.
Love that you couldn't hack to hardware this weekend. And go those awesome kids for scoring their $72!
That Lemon:Aid stand is great!! I'm glad they made some money! I too have never had my eyebrows waxed, I'm contemplating it though and until recently have always had short nails.
Oh my word! Someone who finally agrees with me about Katy Perry. I just do not see the appeal. I also have the fingernail issue. I think we are twins, but you are the skinny one, and I am the less hairy one because I definitely wax multiple areas of my facial region.
I am sure you wrote great deep words but all I could see was that blue shelf like thing and the huge music framed print. I want them both. Ergggghhh.
I love what I got at your sale. Crazy me, though...it's still just sitting there. I haven't put anything up. Oh well...what is this about a housecoat? And what's the SV? You had me laughing, though.
Girl, you want to talk about survival?! Try camping against your will in that beast of a heat wave. ;) I nearly didn't make it. Given the chance, I would've chugged all of that Countrytime. No joke.
Yay for a successful sale and woohooo for all that clean water!! Awesome.
P.S. Totally stealing this title for my new blog post. Ok? Ok.
what an awesome looking garage sale ! I LOVE garage sales ! We don't really have them in the UK, we have car boot sales instead, which are equally as awesome. So glad the kids had fun !

Day 6 of Florida recount: What you need to know
By Ryan Nobles, CNN
(CNN) — It was already shaping up to be an important day in the recount saga for Florida's US Senate, governor and agriculture commissioner races, and now a federal judge has extended a deadline to allow voters whose mail-in and provisional ballots had signature issues more time to correct them.
Here's a look at where we begin the sixth day of the recount.
Florida's 67 counties must officially submit their numbers from the automatic machine recount by 3 p.m. ET. Those numbers will then be certified by the secretary of state. We expect that 66 out of 67 counties will get there with time to spare (that includes Broward).
There is one county, however, that could complicate things.
Palm Beach has been a serious problem since day one. They've been plagued with issues ranging from a system that won't allow all three races to be tabulated at the same time to machines breaking down and needing fixing. As it stands now, if Palm Beach cannot be done by 3 p.m., their numbers from the initial count will stand. That is not good for incumbent Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson, who needs new tabulations in Democratic-heavy counties with the hope votes will flip in his direction.
What about that extension?
The Nelson legal team has a lawsuit pending to allow the deadline for the recount to be extended in every single county. It looks like the only county impacted by that will be Palm Beach. The case is currently being considered by Judge Mark Walker in federal court. At any time Thursday, Walker could hand down a ruling that grants an extension that would give Palm Beach time to get their recount done. That ruling could be very important, but it is not the only one.
Lawsuit mania
In court on Wednesday, Walker described his role in the rapidly increasing number of lawsuits related to the recount in "Star Trek" terms.
"I feel a little like Captain Kirk in the episode where the Tribbles started multiplying," the judge said.
It's important to remember that the path to victory for Nelson means winning these lawsuits and winning them in a way that a whole host of new votes are potentially added to the total.
Already, Thursday's developments do not bode well for Nelson.
Walker ruled early Thursday that the state must give voters whose mismatched signatures disqualified their provisional and mail-in ballots until Saturday at 5 p.m. to correct those signature problems. But the ruling is narrower than the wider relief that Democrats were seeking -- to invalidate the signature-match requirement entirely. And the number of ballots in question -- about 5,000, according to Walker -- is less than the margin of votes separating him and his Republican challenger, Gov. Rick Scott.
The end of the governor's race
Thursday may be the day we can begin to feel comfortable calling Ron DeSantis governor-elect. We never expected the results of the governor's race to change, but the margin between the two candidates did end up in the recount territory. Andrew Gillum, the Democratic nominee, rescinded his concession, continued to give speeches and on Wednesday, ominously tweeted, "I believe that we will win." Thursday could bring the faint hope of a Gillum surge to an end. If the votes don't demonstrably change and the margin remains more than .25%, they will stop counting. The governor's race will be effectively over, if it wasn't already.
The biggest moment on Thursday will likely be the finality of the first recount. The secretary of state is expected to post the results all in one big batch sometime after 3 p.m. Once those numbers are posted, we should receive the official word about which hand recounts will be ordered. It is very likely both the Senate race and the agriculture commissioner race will fall in that category. While we wait for the recount results, we will patiently refresh the federal court's website for updates from Walker's chamber.
Will he rule on any of these important cases? Will those rulings expand the pool of available votes or extend the amount of time the counties have to count their ballots? Those answers could all come on Thursday.

The National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers have gotten the go-ahead to forge an ongoing alliance to pool their advocacy efforts.
At separate meetings last month, leaders of the two teachers' unions approved a new "NEAFT Partnership" that will permit joint projects at the state, local, and national levels, ranging from education conferences to political and legal campaigns.
Some union leaders hope the initiative eases the way for an eventual merger by giving members more experience working with their counterparts in the other organization. But in the meantime, the collaboration could add to the considerable clout that the 2.6 million-member NEA and the 1 million member AFT already wield individually in policymaking circles.
"If you were in a legislature, and two lobbyists from the NEA and AFT came in, and they were arm in arm, you'd probably pay closer attention," said Bruce S. Cooper, a professor at the graduate school of education at Fordham University in New York City.
The new venture marks the latest chapter in the decade-long saga of merger talks between the unions. Although the AFT has shown little reluctance to merge in recent years, many within the NEA have resisted the idea for fear of losing some of the organization's hallmarks, such as voting by secret ballot at the group's annual meeting and its independence from the AFL- CIO. The AFT belongs to the umbrella group for organized labor and insists on maintaining its affiliation.
Delegates to this year's NEA annual meeting in Los Angeles passed the new plan by a vote of 59 percent to 41 percent on July 6. That was followed July 11 by the unanimous approval of the measure by the AFT's 42-member executive council at the federation's biennial educational issues conference in Washington.
According to the new agreement, joint projects will be planned by a committee of 30 union leaders, with each union appointing 15 members. In many respects, the panel resembles a joint council that the two unions created in 1997. But while that earlier arrangement was formed to plan specific activities—such as a conference on teacher quality—the new partnership is more open-ended.
It will likely be several weeks before the new committee meets to begin planning any collaborative ventures, but delegates at the NEA's meeting in Los Angeles weren't lacking for ideas. Many, for instance, said they'd like to see coordinated campaigns advocating more federal funding for special education and Head Start.
"Both the AFT and the NEA have been talking about 'priority schools,' about helping schools that are low-performing," said Judy L. Schaubach, the president of Education Minnesota, one of three merged state affiliates of the two unions. "This is, for me, a classic example of where the two organizations ought to be working together."
Passage of the plan also reinstates a "no raid" agreement in which the two national unions pledge not to help affiliates take each other's members for at least two years.
Although unsure whether the partnership will speed up merger plans, many observers nonetheless say that the two unions are destined to become one. Leo Troy, an economics professor at Rutgers University's campus in Newark, N.J., believes the real impetus for merging will come from outside the two organizations, as public schools face increasing competition from school choice programs, such as voucher initiatives.
"Any heightened competition will drive them together to the extent that they are able to thwart that and maintain their monopoly positions," Mr. Troy said.
Also at the NEA's annual meeting last month, the union followed through on a plan to table a resolution calling for new educational programs aimed at ensuring that schools provide a "safe and inclusive environment" for homosexual students. Instead, NEA leaders agreed to appoint a task force to study the issue and gather more advice from members before recommending further action. ("Delegates Debate Partnership With AFT," July 11, 2001.) Delegates also elected three new members to the NEA's nine-person executive committee, one of the organization's most important decisionmaking panels: Pennsylvania science teacher Becky Pringle, outgoing Mississippi Association of Educators President Michael Marks, and Mike Billirakis, the outgoing president of the Ohio Education Association.
"NEA Agrees to New Alliance With AFT," July 11, 2001, Web-only.
"Despite National Defeat, NEA and AFT Work Toward Mergers in States," Aug. 5, 1998.
"NEA Delegates Reject Merger Plan, but Door to Unity With AFT Still Open," July 8, 1998.
"In Unprecedented Move, NEA, AFT Forge Partnership To Address Issues," Nov. 12, 1997.
