Hersey Township Board responded to concerns of the local community and turned down a proposed resolution submitted by the Road commission to support MPO so it could access more state funding to build roads for the mine. On March 21, 2025, Ted Pagano, owner of Michigan Potash, finally got a letter denying him a permit to destroy more than 22 wetlands to build his mine. This is a temporary reprieve. but it follows an actual investigation at the site by an independent agency called Peterson Environmental, as requested by the US Environmental Protection Agency. They identified additional wetlands not included in the original permit request that would be impacted and EGLE is requiring that they address these new issues that were not public noticed before. EGLE is proposing “prudent and feasible alternatives” are available and urging Pagano to alter his plans and submit a new request. They gave details on what changes could be made.

Registrų centro duomenimis, 2023 m. Lietuvoje buvo kiek daugiau nei 9 tūkstančiai neveiksnių arba ribotai veiksnių asmenų. Ką reiškia asmens pripažinimas neveiksniu arba ribotai veiksniu? Kaip vyksta prašymų dėl fizinių asmenų pripažinimo ribotai veiksniais ar neveiksniais nagrinėjimas teismuose ir ar įmanoma atgauti veiksnumą? Komentuoja Vilniaus miesto apylinkės teismo teisėjas Jan Maciejevski.Prasidėjus naujiems kalendoriniams metams galime prarasti sukauptas atostogas. Tai reiškia ne tik prarastas potencialas atostogas, bet ir prarastą materialią naudą už jų neišnaudojimą. Ar tai įvyks, priklauso ne tik nuo to, kada darbuotojas įgijo teisę į atostogas, bet ir nuo to, ar buvo svarbių aplinkybių, dėl kurių darbuotojas negalėjo laiku jomis pasinaudoti. Ką daryti vadinamiesiems atostogų kaupikams bei jų darbdaviams, pasakoja teisės firmos „Sorainen“ ekspertė, advokatė Agnietė Venckienė.Skyrybų statistika liudija, kad šeimos (arba vienas iš sutuoktinių) sprendimą skirtis priima Naujųjų metų išvakarėse.

Pokalbis su tėčiu ir dukra – Arnoldu ir Egle Stasiuliais, kurie neseniai grįžo iš savo gyvenimo kelio - kartu įveikė Camino Santjago kelią. Tai buvo ne tik nueiti kilometrai, pasiektas tikslas, tačiau ir nueitas didelis kiekvieno atskirai bei abiejų kartu – tėčio ir dukros kelias.„Vaikų ir tėvų santykis yra augantis. Jis yra taip sukurtas, kad turi jį visą gyvenimą ugdyti ir mokytis. Buvimas su Egle dabar yra pamokos ir man, ir jai. Ir būtėnt šis būdas – keliavimas Camino keliu, buvo tinkamas ugdyti santykį būtent su šia dukra. Su kitomis dukromis, ko gero, to daryti negalėčiau, tam yra kiti būdai“, - sako trijų dukrų tėtis.„Galvoju, kad, kai esi vaikas, paauglys, uždedi filtrus žmonėms, ypatingai patiems artimiausiems – tėvams, sesėms, kokie jie yra, ką jie gali, ko ne. Šiame kelyje stengiausi atverti akis ir pamatyti – o kas yra mano tėtis?“, - laidoje sako Eglė.Pašnekovai pasakoja, kaip keitėsi tėvo ir dukros ryšys, kai Eglė buvo vaikas, paauglė ir dabar, jau suaugusi moteris. Dalijasi bendrame kelyje išmoktomis pamokomis ir sako: „Buitis Camino yra pasirūpinimas savimi. Ir tai, ko gero, yra svarbiau nei žingsniavimas. Ir nepamirškime, visada yra kelias, visada turime ir kur, ir su kuo eiti, tik reikia sekti rodyklėmis“.Ved. Žydrė Gedrimaitė

Rīgā vairākās tikšanās reizēs ar iedzīvotājiem vides organizācijas un domnieki spriedīs par to, kā pilsētu pielāgot klimata pārmaiņām. Lai arī Rīga nekad nav gatava, klimata pārmaiņas min uz papēžiem un jau šobrīd jārod risinājumi karstuma, plūdu u.c. problēmām pilsētā. Nesen raidījumā runājām par centieniem glābt ledājus un šajā sarunā atkal ieskanējās jautājumi par to, kas notiks ar tādu pilsētu kā Rīga tuvākajās desmitgadēs. Jau šobrīd izjūtam lielo svelmi Rīgas ielās vasarās, ziemā tā ir intensīva snigšana, ar kuru netiek galā sniega šķūrētāji un autovadītāji; tie ir plūdi un lērums citu ķibeļu, kuras bieži nākas piedzīvot nesagatavotiem. Kā iedzīvotāji un pilsētas insitūcijas meklē risinājumus šīm problēmām, raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā skaidro Ingrīda Strazdiņa, biedrības "Zaļā brīvība" pārstāve, Indra Purs, Latvijas Ainavu arhitektu associācijas valdes priekšsēdētāja, un Jānis Ušča, Rīgas domes pārstāvis. Piesārņotas vai piegružotas teritorijas sakopšana vai atjaunošana Ja, piemēram, augsne ir piesārņota ar naftu, tā tiek gan attīrīta mūsu valstī, gan arī augsni ved uz Lietuvu vai Igauniju, kur to attīra un izmanto būvniecībā. Kā praktiski tiek pārbaudīta un atjaunota piesārņota vai degradēta vide, skaidro uz Valsts vides dienesta (VVD) pārstāvji. Būvgružu vai vecu ēku drupu savākšana ir vieglāk un ātrāk pārraugāms process nekā piesārņotas teritorijas attīrīšana. Ja piegružota teritorija ir ar aci saskatāma, tad piesārņojuma konstatēšanai ir nepieciešams veikt analīzes  no augsnes vai apkārtējiem ūdeņiem, bet abos gadījumos jāpieskata, kur un kā tiek galā ar atkritumiem un šis jautājums ir Valsts vides dienesta kompetencē. Vairāk par to, kā šis dienests rīkojas, kad ir uzzināts par piegružotu vai piesārņotu teritoriju, stāsta VVD Lielrīgas reģionālās vides pārvaldes Atkritumu kontroles daļas vadītājs Mārtiņš Egle un VVD Atļauju pārvaldes direktore Daina Kalēja. Runājot par  piesārņotu vidi, tas ir ilgs un komplicēts process, kamēr tiek  izpētīts, cik dziļi, kur konkrēti šis piesārņojums ir, kādas vielas speciālistiem ir jāpārbauda. Tad tiek analizēti ievāktie paraugi, pēc tam izstrādā projektu, kā konkrētā teritorijā tiks veikta sanācija jeb vienkāršāk sakot, kā šī vieta tiks atveseļota. Tas parasti nenotiek viena gada laikā un arī pēc tam tiek uzraudzīts, cik kvalitatīvi vide ir attīrīta. Redzamākais un līdz šīm apjomīgākais projekts  Latvijā ir Inčukalna sērskābā gudrona dīķu attīrīšana, kas sākas jau 2009. gadā un noslēdzās 2023. gada decembrī.

Chris Holman welcomes back Director Phil Roos at EGLE (Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy - State of Michigan, Lansing, MI. Can you explain the primary purpose of the EPA's Get the Lead Out initiative and how it aims to protect public health in Michigan and beyond? Earlier this year, Governor Whitmer and EGLE announced a $290 million expansion of the MI Clean Water Plan. How will this expansion ensure more access to safe drinking water across the state? The expansion of this initiative has created more than 4,000 local jobs. What specific jobs were created and how will this further EGLE's priority of removing lead service lines and ensuring access to safe water for Michigan residents? What other significant investments has EGLE made to ensure the protection and preservation of Michigan's water resources? In your view, how do these initiatives and investments collectively contribute to the long-term sustainability of Michigan's water resources? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

Roberto Mandracchia"L'implosivo"minimum faxwww.minimumfax.comCarmine Stanga, settant'anni suonati, è un boss della mafia che si nasconde in un casolare delle campagne siciliane. A raccogliere i pizzini con i quali continua a comandare la sua cosca è il fido braccio destro Ninnì Bisaccia, mentre il casolare appartiene a un contadino complice, Lallo Cutrò. Un giorno, all'improvviso, le visite di Ninnì cessano, e anche di Lallo non c'è più traccia. Carmine prova a capire cosa sia successo attingendo alla collezione di pizzini ricevuti e inviati; nel frattempo combatte con una prostata infiammata, legge la Bibbia scoprendo strane assonanze tra la sua storia e quelle di Giobbe o Sansone, rievoca gli episodi più sanguinosi della sua vita di mafioso, pensa con nostalgia e struggimento a Egle, la donna della sua vita. Fino a quando, come ogni Robinson Crusoe che si rispetti, Carmine cattura un ragazzo che non parla e si esprime solo tramite disegni elementari. Cagnolazzo – questo il nome che Carmine dà al giovane – diventerà il suo personalissimo Venerdì, e gli offrirà un antidoto a una solitudine ormai insopportabile.Roberto Mandracchia scrive una storia in cui si alternano umorismo irresistibile ed efferata violenza e, sulle orme della narrativa del Sud (nostro e d'oltreoceano), indaga a fondo la natura umana mostrandoci quanto sia labile il confine tra empatia e biasimo, immoralità e purezza.Roberto Mandracchia è nato ad Agrigento.

Le tout premier Festival des chants s'est déroulé il y a 100 ans en Lituanie et depuis cette tradition de réunir des milliers de choristes sur une scène ne s'est pas perdue. Ces célébrations des chants et danses baltes sont même inscrites depuis 2008 sur la liste du patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco. Depuis samedi 29 juin 2024 et durant une semaine, de nombreux concerts et représentations auront lieu dans toute la ville, jusqu'au concert final, où 12 000 choristes seront sur scène. De notre correspondante à Vilnius, Dans un jardin à l'extérieur de Vilnius, les choristes de l'ensemble Virvyte se sont réunis pour la toute dernière répétition avant le début des festivités. Donata attend avec impatience son concert mardi 2 juillet : « Je me souviens des fêtes précédentes, et les répétitions étaient longues, épuisantes, il pleuvait, il faisait très chaud, et nous étions avec des grands costumes, raconte-t-elle en français. Mais tout le monde était satisfait parce que les milliers de participants chantent et dansent à l'unisson, c'est un bon sentiment. »Le nombre de participants peut donner le tournis. En face des 12 000 choristes et 9 000 danseurs, les spectateurs seront encore plus nombreux. La tradition de ces festivals de chant est arrivée de Suisse et d'Allemagne à la fin du XIXème siècle, au moment du renouveau national.Un sentiment d'union nationale né après la guerre La Lituanie est la dernière des trois pays baltes à organiser son tout premier festival en 2024. Comme le remarque Rasa Gelgotiene, chef de chœur renommée, le plaisir de chanter est aussi lié à l'affirmation de son identité : « Les Lituaniens étaient très heureux d'obtenir leur indépendance après la Première Guerre mondiale. Ce mouvement national de chanter nos chansons est né. Pendant la période soviétique, chanter était une forme de résistance. Nous chantions des chants de notre patrimoine en lituanien, réunis tous ensemble et avec le sentiment d'être lituaniens. »À lire aussiSimonas Kairys, ministre lituanien de la Culture: «Il ne faut pas avoir peur des Russes»Plus de 30 ans après le retour à l'indépendance de la Lituanie, le contexte géopolitique s'invite à nouveau dans les célébrations. C'est ce que remarque le directeur du festival, Saulius Liausa : « La guerre qui se déroule en ce moment à côté de nous est aussi une guerre culturelle. On résiste pour défendre la langue, les coutumes, l'identité et cela renforce encore plus ici notre sentiment d'unité. »Plusieurs milliers de personnes attendues Durant ce festival, les participants sont surtout là pour se faire plaisir. Egle chantera lors de la journée dédiée au folklore : « J'aime beaucoup ce moment, car tout le monde est sur son 31, tout le monde sort son costume traditionnel pour l'occasion ! »Le 6 juillet prochain, ils seront plusieurs milliers à défiler dans les rues de Vilnius pour rejoindre le parc Vingis et entonner un programme long de plusieurs heures.À lire aussiPourquoi la Lituanie soutient indéfectiblement l'Ukraine?

Chris Holman welcomes Director Phil Roos at EGLE, Lansing, MI. Phil, Remind the Michigan business community about EGLE? How is EGLE engaged with the business community? News from Mackinac Island included that EGLE is partnering with MSHDA and Gov. Whitmer, you made an announcement on the Island about the home energy rebate program? What are you hoping to see passed in the budget this year? Michigan increases housing goal and announces programs to lower home energy costs for 28,000 families, helping more Michiganders reach their dreams of owning a home LANSING, Mich.– At the Mackinac Policy Conference Wednesday, Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced significant strides in housing and energy initiatives, continuing Michigan's national leadership in leveraging climate and clean energy-related federal funding. This includes raising the state's five-year housing production goal by over 50% and investing federal funds to lower energy costs for 28,000 low-income households through the Solar for All and Home Energy Rebate Programs. The initiatives will lower housing and utility costs for Michiganders and will put the state closer to achieving the goals of the MI Healthy Climate Plan. The initiatives will lower housing and utility costs for Michiganders and will put the state closer to achieving the goals of the MI Healthy Climate Plan. “Together, we're going to lower housing and energy costs for Michiganders,” said Governor Whitmer. “By raising our statewide housing goal to 115,000 units, we will build more housing to drive down costs and ensure every Michigander has a safe, affordable place to call home. Thanks to our partners in the Biden-Harris administration, we have federal resources headed our way to lower energy costs for Michigan families by helping them upgrade to more energy efficient home appliances and install solar panels on their homes or in their community to save them money on their utilities. These upgrades will keep families cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and improve their quality of life. Let's keep taking action to lower costs on housing and energy, two fundamental issues that make a real difference in people's lives.” Governor Raises State's Five-Year Housing Production Goal by Over 50%  Since Governor Whitmer office, the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) has invested twice as much compared to the last administration to build, rehab, or finance 34,000 homes, supporting 20,000 jobs. At the 2021 Mackinac Policy Conference, the governor set a goal of permitting, building, or rehabbing 75,000 additional units in five years—by September 2026. Currently, Michigan is ahead of schedule with nearly 50,000 units built, rehabbed, or permitted. Today, the governor raised Michigan's five-year statewide housing target to 115,000—a 53% increase. This pushes Michigan closer to the goal of ensuring everyone has access to the middle class, starting with homes and utilities they can afford. "We are celebrating our hard work in funding $1.23 billion to finance, build, and rehab thousands of homes in the last year while recognizing that we need to raise the bar higher to end the housing crisis for Michigan families," said Amy Hovey, CEO and Executive Director of MSHDA. "We're committed to listening to our local and regional partners, moving quickly with creative solutions, and working hard to make communities and neighborhoods better."  In addition to investing unprecedented new resources, MSHDA has been implementing the Statewide Housing Plan in partnership with the members of the Statewide Housing Partnership and the local and regional leaders of each of the Regional Housing Partnerships. That work has led to new investments from the state legislature, solutions that eliminate unnecessary burdens and red tape on developers and local governments, and collaboration in support of making neighborhoods and communities stronger.  www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/

That's exactly what Egle Raadik did, and she joins us to recount her entrepreneurial odyssey from the quaint streets of Estonia to the global e-commerce arena. Egle's candid revelations about her interior architecture roots and subsequent pivot to digital marketing provide an incisive look into the liberating world of e-commerce, while her foray into creating a unique fruit basket product on Amazon serves as a masterclass in seizing market opportunities.   Egle's story is not just about the highlights; she opens up about the obstacles she's faced along the way, sharing the sort of insights that textbooks and webinars gloss over. From navigating Amazon's intricate marketplace to the real-world challenges of international product sourcing, Egle's experiences are a good source of learning. She details her humbling losses and spectacular comebacks, eventually leading to a seven-figure exit that underscores the importance of product portfolio balance and a team you can count on.   But Egle's entrepreneurial spirit doesn't end with selling one successful business. She's got her eyes set on the future with three new brands, all carefully crafted with exit strategies in mind. This episode is more than just a peek into the life of a successful Amazon seller; it's a roadmap for aspiring e-commerce moguls. Egle doesn't shy away from discussing the complexities of business and event planning across borders, highlighting Estonia's digital culture and its thriving community of e-commerce sellers.

Arvien skaļāk no politiķiem Eiropā dzirdam, ka Eiropai ir jārēķinās, ka tā ir viena un Krievijai pretī jāstājas bez ASV, neatkarīgi no vēlēšanu rezultātiem novembrī. Kas ir mūsu mājasdarbi, lai nodrošinātu Eiropas aizsardzību bez ASV aizmugures, cik būtiski ir gatavoties šādiem scenārijiem, diskutējam Krustpunktā. Raidījuma viesi: Latvijas Ārpolitikas institūta direktors Kārlis Bukovskis, Latvijas Drošības un aizsardzības industrijas federācijas valdes priekšsēdētāja Elīna Egle, Ģeopolitikas pētījumu centra direktors Māris Andžāns un drošības eksperts Jānis Kažociņš. Tās joprojām ir spekulācijas, bet pasaules mediji ziņo, ka Eiropas varas gaiteņos arvien aktīvāk izvēršoties diskusijas, kā Eiropai gatavoties iespējamai politikas maiņai Amerikas Savienotajās Valstīs. Kā zināms, ASV šoruden būs prezidenta vēlēšanas un diezgan ticami izskatās, ka republikāņu kandidāts atkal būs Donalds Tramps. Ņemot vērā prezidenta Džp Baidena zemo popularitāti, viņam varētu būt arī savas izredzes vēlēšanās uzvarēt. Daudzi Eiropā atminas, cik saspīlētas attiecības starp Eiropu un ASV izvērsās viņa iepriekšējās prezidentūras laikā. Viņš arī, kā zināms, pēc Krievijas iebrukuma Ukrainā joprojām ir atzinīgi izteicies par Vladimiru Putinu. Pagājušā nedēļā viņa sacītais, ka viņš iedrošina Krieviju uzbrukt tiem, kas neinvestē pietiekoši savā aizsardzībā un ASV nenāks palīgā arī NATO valstīm, protams, izraisīja lielu viļņošanos. Vispār viņa skepse pret NATO par palīdzības sniegšanu Ukrainai – solījumi 24 stundu laikā panākt, ka karš starp Krieviju un Ukrainu tiek pārtraukts. Vai un kā ir jāgatavojas iespējamām pārmaiņām Savienoto Valstu politikā? Ar ko vajadzētu rēķināties?

Without a doubt, generative AI dominated the conversation, not only in L&D but in wider business and politics - and it's not going away. So where are we now in terms of advancement, adoption, and application? These are important questions explored with Egle Vinauskaite in this episode, presented by 360Learning. KEY TAKEAWAYS Most L&D departments have not yet fully integrated AI. Around 30% have tried it and decided not to use it. AI is coming, if you don´t keep experimenting with it, you will fall behind. L&D will inevitably play a big role in the organisation's successful adoption of AI for its processes. This is our time to shine. AI will be able to provide personalised feedback to help with upskilling, it will also be good at analysis. In time, AI will be able to spot emerging capabilities and skill needs. Don´t be sucked in by AI shiny objects that don´t solve an actual problem. Do an audit of the tools you are using and see if you can use AI to improve things. BEST MOMENTS 'Very few, if any, L&D departments seem to have integrated AI in a strategic and holistic way.' 'I am very excited by the potential for upskilling.' 'For most organisations using AI has become a competitive imperative.'

Here's the LoL Friday Short on this October 20th, of 2023 Democrats in the Michigan Legislature have introduced bills to abolish former Republican Gov. Rick Snyder's "Polluter Panels." Snyder and the MAGA majority back in 2018 created a panel filled with industry and commercial insiders with the main goal of slowing down or stopping any real, meaningful protections for the environment and every Michigander. But thanks to the new Democratic majority, steps are finally happening to eliminate these panels, and to leave the decision making to qualified people within the Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy--or EGLE. Now, we understand why Rick Snyder is working with the rich donor class to reinstall MAGA into the majority in Lansing next fall. It's all about profits--and saving his sad and sorry legacy.  --Pat leftoflansing@gmail.com  leftoflansing.com

Estonian Super Star Amazon Seller Egle Radeek - Back From The Brink   Welcome back to the podcast! In today's episode, we have a special guest, Egle, who will be sharing her story of an exit just before the bubble burst in 2022. Egle has been a frequent guest on our show and has also appeared on other platforms. While her journey may not have followed the traditional success story, it's important to shed light on the challenges entrepreneurs face. So, let's dive into the compelling parts of Egle's story and explore the lessons we can learn.   Key Points:   The prelude to the exit: Egle was approached to start selling her business in December 2021, and everything seemed promising. However, their main seller faced issues due to a catalogue error in the Amazon system, leading to a significant loss in revenue. Despite working with aggregators and consultants, they struggled to overcome the obstacles. The impact of COVID-19: Just as they managed to resolve the listing issue, the COVID-19 pandemic struck. Since their business focused on office supplies, their customer base suffered as people transitioned to remote work. This further added to their challenges, making survival seem like a daily struggle. The decision to continue or shut down: Faced with mounting debts and the need to invest in new ventures, Egle and her business partner had to make a difficult choice. They consulted with experts and realised that although their business had flatlined, it still had potential for growth post-pandemic. They decided to persevere and wait for better times.   Final Summary:   Egle's story highlights the harsh realities entrepreneurs can face, even in favourable circumstances. Despite setbacks, Egle and her team chose to weather the storm and find opportunities within the adversity. By stabilising their business, optimising their strategies, and leveraging the understanding of aggregators, they held on, believing that their industry would eventually recover. This tale reminds us that entrepreneurship is a rollercoaster journey, and success often requires resilience and the ability to adapt to unexpected challenges.   Are you a 7 figure brand selling on Amazon?   Want to work with an Agency that knows both PPC and the A9 algorithm?   Click here to request a free PPC Audit https://www.databrill.com/

This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily Newsbrief for Friday, February 17th, 2023. I hope you all have had a fantastic week as we’ve reached Friday! Trinity Church is hosting a Men’s Conference, Friday night and Saturday morning, 2/24-2/25. The title is Taking Dominion. God has given mankind the commission to take dominion over His creation for the purpose of making it more fruitful, beneficial, and enjoyable, and all to the glory of God. Men are the tip of the spear as we lead our households in the pursuit of this dominion. Pastor Dave Hatcher, Pastor Jerry Owen, and Andrew Crappuchettes (CEO RedBalloon) will be speaking about fulfilling this mandate in our selves, our houses, and the other opportunities God gives us. Visit www.trinitykirk.org/2023-mens-conference https://www.foxnews.com/us/train-derails-outside-detroit-michigan-one-car-hazardous-materials Train derails outside Detroit, Michigan, with one car carrying hazardous materials A train containing one car of hazardous materials has derailed Thursday in Van Buren Township outside Detroit, Michigan, reports say. The cause of the derailment was not immediately clear. Police told Fox2 Detroit that there were no injuries and the area is not a hazmat situation. Officials that spoke to WXYZ, which reported that at least six cars were seen off the track, said one of them was carrying hazardous materials. The derailment comes less than two weeks after a train carrying toxic chemicals derailed in East Palestine, Ohio. Police told Fox2 Detroit that roads will be closed in the area while an investigation is ongoing. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy also said it is "aware of the train derailment in Van Buren Township, Wayne County, where initial reports indicate no threat to the public from the derailment. "EGLE personnel are on their way to the scene to assist in assessing the situation," it added. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-admin-turns-down-ohios-request-disaster-assistance-toxic-derailment Biden admin turns down Ohio's request for disaster assistance after toxic derailment The Biden administration turned down a request for federal disaster assistance from Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine in the aftermath of the train derailment in the state earlier this month that led to a large release of toxic chemicals. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) told Ohio's state government that it was not eligible for disaster assistance to help the community recover from the toxic spill, Dan Tierney, a spokesperson for DeWine, told Fox News Digital on Thursday. Tierney explained that FEMA believed the incident didn't qualify as a traditional disaster, such as a tornado or hurricane, for which it usually provides assistance. "The DeWine Administration has been in daily contact with FEMA to discuss the need for federal support, however FEMA continues to tell Governor DeWine that Ohio is not eligible for assistance at this time," DeWine's office said in a statement earlier in the day. "Governor DeWine will continue working with FEMA to determine what assistance can be provided." FEMA said that its team is in constant communication with DeWine's office, but didn't comment on the request for federal relief. Tierney noted, though, that the governor was able to secure some health assistance from the Department of Health and Human Services that will go towards helping local residents with any medical care costs that stem from the incident. Norfolk Southern has offered financial compensation to locals who were displaced and has worked with the Environmental Protection Agency and state officials to conduct air safety tests. Health officials have assured the public that tests have shown the area is safe. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bruce-willis-diagnosed-frontotemporal-dementia-demi-moore-says_n_63ee887ae4b0808b91c5a71e Bruce Willis Diagnosed With Frontotemporal Dementia, Family Says Actor Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, his family said in a statement Thursday. The 67-year-old “Die Hard” star was diagnosed with the disease, also known as FTD, after his prior diagnosis of aphasia progressed, his family said. The disease’s progression varies from two to more than 20 years and the average life expectancy after the start of symptoms is seven to 13 years. There is no cure or treatment currently available, according to the AFTD’s website. Willis’ family said that by sharing his story they hope they can bring more awareness to the disease and push for research toward finding treatments. Willis retired from acting in 2022 after his aphasia diagnosis. Aphasia typically occurs suddenly after a stroke, head injury or sometimes a slow-growing tumor. It can affect a person’s ability to speak, write and understand language, both verbal and written, according to the Mayo Clinic. The actor’s former co-workers told the Los Angeles Times last year that he had been struggling for years on set. In the Biden administrations’ zeal for shooting down balloons, they may have overreacted with this one… https://aviationweek.com/defense-space/aircraft-propulsion/hobby-clubs-missing-balloon-feared-shot-down-usaf Hobby Club’s Missing Balloon Feared Shot Down By USAF A small, globe-trotting balloon declared “missing in action” by an Illinois-based hobbyist club on Feb. 15 has emerged as a candidate to explain one of the three mystery objects shot down by four heat-seeking missiles launched by U.S. Air Force fighters since Feb. 10. The club—the Northern Illinois Bottlecap Balloon Brigade (NIBBB)—is not pointing fingers yet. But the circumstantial evidence is at least intriguing. The club’s silver-coated, party-style, “pico balloon” reported its last position on Feb. 10 at 38,910 ft. off the west coast of Alaska, and a popular forecasting tool—the HYSPLIT model provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)—projected the cylindrically shaped object would be floating high over the central part of the Yukon Territory on Feb. 11. That is the same day a Lockheed Martin F-22 shot down an unidentified object of a similar description and altitude in the same general area. There are suspicions among other prominent members of the small, pico-ballooning enthusiasts’ community, which combines ham radio and high-altitude ballooning into a single, relatively affordable hobby. https://www.theblaze.com/news/eu-2035-gas-car-ban European Union approves effective ban on sales of gas cars by 2035, requiring 100% reduction in CO2 European Parliament has formally approved a law that will effectively end the sale of gas- and diesel-powered vehicles in the European Union by 2035, calling for a 100% reduction in CO2 emissions for any new cars sold, according to Reuters. The 27-nation union agreed to the changes in October 2022, but has now formalized the deal, which enforces a 55% reduction in emissions for vehicles by 2030. Levels for CO2 for 2021 were set at a target of 37.5%. Vans will get a slight advantage in the market, requiring a a 50% cut by 2030, compared with 2021 levels. Just a few months before the announcement in May 2022, car makers such as Ford and Volvo even signed a joint letter with 26 other companies asking the European Union to implement such a plan. The target of 2035 has been justified by the EU based on what officials say is an average vehicle lifespan of 15 years, which would allow the EU to reach net zero emissions by 2050. Companies that make less than 10,000 cars per year will be able to negotiate lower targets until 2036, however some companies are happily ready to enforce the change. Volkswagen vowed in October 2022 to produce only electric cars in Europe beginning in 2033, committing to the earliest possible time frame after previously stating it would aim for a 2033-2035 range. However, in June 2022, five countries were looking to delay the shift to electric-only vehicles by at least five years to 2040. Bulgaria, Italy, Portugal, Romania, and Slovakia called for a 90% cut of CO2 by 2035, extending the 100% target to 2040, with light commercial vehicles meeting 80% for 2035 before also needing the full cut by 2040. A Bulgarian official had said that the EU needed to reconsider the economic costs of switching to electric and the effect that would have on poorer nations in the union. Laws enforcing electric vehicle chargers are currently in negotiation in the union. https://dailycaller.com/2023/02/15/china-ccp-christian-chinaaid-jonathan-dingler-pastor-bob-fu-xi-jinping/ Communist China Cracked Down On Christians In 2022 The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) censored, fined, politically indoctrinated and forcibly disappeared Chinese Christians in 2022, according to a new report from the nonprofit ChinaAid Tuesday. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) reportedly employed a range of new methods to persecute Chinese Christians in 2022 including fabricating charges of fraud as well as criminalizing the legal international travel of church leaders, the report states. China’s crackdown on Christianity reportedly intensified in the run-up to the CCP’s 20th Party Congress in October 2022, during which time General Secretary Xi Jinping secured a third term as the communist nation’s supreme leader, according to ChinaAid. “Xi Jinping and the Communist Party did all they could to silence Christians leading up to the 20th National Congress,” Jonathan Dingler, a spokesman for ChinaAid who worked on the report, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. Christians account for approximately 5% of China’s religious community, according to the CIA World Factbook. While Catholics number around 10 million, Protestants account for the majority of China’s Christian community, with approximately 38 million followers as of 2020, The Economist reported. Dingler told the DCNF that after the CCP’s crackdown leading up to the 20th Party Congress “the tone shifted” within the state-sanctioned churches which then began treating Xi “as if he were the leader of the church.” ChinaAid identified a March 2022 paper entitled “Adhering to the Sinicization of Religion in China” published by the United Front Work Department (UFWD) as the political motivation behind the CCP’s 2022 crackdown on Christianity. The UFWD is a “Chinese government entity charged with extending the CCP’s influence and control over non-Party organizations both domestically and abroad to advance CCP policy objectives,” according to a 2021 report by the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC). Moreover, the USCC also identified the UFWD as a “Chinese intelligence service” in 2016. The UFWD’s March 2022 paper reportedly emphasized “promoting the Sinicization of religion, adhering to the orientation of the core socialist values and submerging all religious beliefs in Chinese culture to better adapt religion to China’s socialist society and the New Era of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics,” according to ChinaAid. China’s state-sanctioned churches must now actively promote Xi’s thoughts “from the pulpit,” which in practice means that churches which don’t “flat-out fall at Xi’s feet and worship him are considered ‘inciting subversion of state power,'” Dingler told the DCNF. Churches were reportedly even converted into political propaganda centers in order to broadcast Xi’s speech during the 20th Party Congress in October 2022, according to ChinaAid’s report. Likewise, churches in other provinces were also reportedly repurposed to hold “study” sessions on CCP policies such as “Reinforcing Management of Religion on All Fronts: 10 Prohibitions and 10 Mustn’ts.” The Chinese government also increasingly persecuted Christians online in 2022, censoring words like “Jesus,” “Savior” and “Amen” on the Chinese social media platform WeChat, according to ChinaAid’s report. At the same time, the Chinese government also shut down church websites and Christians’ social media accounts. “Congregants can’t even give to their churches online anymore, thanks to new regulations,” Dingler said. “They want to break down house churches even further, hoping they will finally give in and submit.” The Chinese Embassy did not respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.
