Teachers and staff at an elementary school in Vanderhoof, B.C., have received what RCMP are calling 'disturbing' letters. They arrived just weeks after a rainbow crosswalk in the same community was targeted for vandalism.

British news publisher the Guardian said on Wednesday it will no longer post to X, citing "disturbing content" on the social media platform, including racism and conspiracy theories.

new york — A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday threw out a $1.68 billion judgment against Iran's central bank that had been won by family members of troops killed and injured in the 1983 bombing of the U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Beirut.  The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said a lower court judge should have addressed questions of state law before ruling against Bank Markazi and Luxembourg intermediary Clearstream Banking, a unit of Deutsche Boerse.  In a 3-0 decision, the panel also rejected a claim that a 2019 federal law designed to make it easier to seize Iranian assets held outside the United States waived Bank Markazi's sovereign immunity.  That law "neither abrogates Bank Markazi's jurisdictional immunity nor provides an independent grant of subject matter jurisdiction," Circuit Judge Robert Sack wrote.    The court returned the case to U.S. District Loretta Preska, in Manhattan to address state law questions in the 11-year-old case, and whether the case can proceed in Bank Markazi's absence.  Bombing victims sought to hold Iran liable for providing material support for the October 23, 1983, suicide attack that killed 241 U.S. service members, by seizing bond proceeds held by Clearstream in a blocked account on Bank Markazi's behalf.  Bank Markazi claimed immunity under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, which generally shields foreign governments from liability in U.S. courts.  Lawyers for the plaintiffs did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Bank Markazi's and Clearstream's lawyers did not immediately respond to similar requests.  Iran, other U.S.-designated sponsors of terrorism, and banks accused of providing services to terrorists face thousands of claims in U.S. courts by victims and their families. It is often difficult for these claimants to collect judgments.  In the Bank Markazi case, the plaintiffs sued in 2013 to partially satisfy a $2.65 billion default judgment they had won against Iran in 2007.  Another judge dismissed the case in 2015, but the 2nd Circuit Court revived it in 2017.  Then in 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court ordered a fresh review in light of the 2019 law, which then-President Donald Trump signed as part of the National Defense Authorization Act.  The plaintiffs have said they hold more than $4 billion of judgments against Iran and have been unable to collect for decades.  The case is Peterson et al v. Bank Markazi et al, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 15-690.

There are a number of theories that attempt to identify a historical Robin Hood. A difficulty with any such historical search is that "Robert" was in medieval England a very common given name, and "Robin" (or Robyn), especially in the 13th century, was its very common diminutive. The surname "Hood" (or Hude or Hode etc.), referring ultimately to the head-covering, was also fairly common. Unsurprisingly, therefore, there are a number of people called "Robert Hood" or "Robin Hood" to be found in medieval records. Some of them are on record for having fallen afoul of the law, but this is not necessarily significant to the legend. The early ballads give a number of possible historical clues: notably, the Gest names the reigning king as "Edward", but the ballads cannot be assumed to be reliable in such details. For whatever it may be worth, however, King Edward I took the throne in 1272, and an Edward remained on the throne until the death of Edward III in 1377. On the other hand, what appears to be the first known example of "Robin Hood" as stock name for an outlaw dates to 1262 in Berkshire, where the surname "Robehod" was applied to a man after he had been outlawed, and apparently because he had been outlawed. This could suggest two main possibilities: either that an early form of the Robin Hood legend was already well established in the mid 13th century; or alternatively that the name "Robin Hood" preceded the outlaw hero that we know; so that the "Robin Hood" of legend was so called because that was seen as an appropriate name for an outlaw. It has long been suggested, notably by John Maddicott, that "Robin Hood" was a stock alias used by thieves.

Critics commonly charge that the traditional Bible text used by believers for 1800 years adds material, and that we should be thankful for Westcott and Hort who came along in the 19th century to restore the text of the New Testament that had been corrupt for 1800 years and during the entire reformation. This charge is of course made against evidence to the contrary, as you will find if you research the text lines (read other articles on this website). Further, it is interesting to note that one of these verses is this: Romans 13:9: For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. The phrase "thou shalt not bear false witness" is missing from the modern critical text (and therefor most modern versions). Now I ask you: is it reasonable to assume that a scribe added a self-incriminating phrase to the passage? Isn't it more likely that "those who corrupt the word of God" (2 Cor. 2:17, KJV) removed the phrase which indicted them?

7V VERWARMDE HANDSCHOENEN Of je nu gaat skiën, paardrijden, hond uitlaten, fietsen of wat dan ook, het is nooit leuk als je het koud hebt. De handen zullen het eerste koud worden. Hiervoor hebben wij verschillende 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen ontwikkeld waardoor je met plezier de dingen doet die je leuk vindt. Ook mensen met een minder goede doorbloeding zullen merken dat onze verwarmde handschoenen een uitkomst zijn. Alle Gerbing 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen en andere kledingstukken uit het 7 volt assortiment worden standaard geleverd met 2 oplaadbare batterijen. Dat wil zeggen dat in tegenstelling tot onze 12 volt elektrisch verwarmde handschoenen, die standaard aangesloten worden op een motorvoertuigaccu, de 7 volt handschoenen alleen maar autonoom gedragen kunnen worden. Net als onze 12 volt verwarmde handschoenen zijn de 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen voorzien van het gepatenteerde micro wire (staaldraad). Dit draad is heel sterk en erg flexibel. Voor alle doeleinden heeft Gerbing handschoenen: S-7 verwarmde textiel handschoenen zijn te gebruiken voor o.a.skiën en fietsen vanwege de extra verstevigingen aan de binnenkant van de hand. De lederen O-7 verwarmde handschoenen en de H-7 verwarmde handschoenen zijn weer te gebruiken voor diverse outdoor activiteiten. Zo is de H-7 handschoenen speciaal gemaakt voor paardrijden en jagen. Maar vanwege zijn sjieke uiterlijk kan men ook leeker verwarmt rijden in een cabrio. De M-7 verwarmde wanten maken de collectie compleet. Deze textiele wanten zijn verkrijgbaar in drie maten en zijn voor heel veel activiteiten geschikt. Al deze 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen worden geleverd met een 7 volt batterij kitje (B7V-2500 KIT). Deze batterijen worden ook voor de 7 volt verwarmde jassen, 7 volt verwarmde sokken en alle overige 7 volt producten. De batterijen zijn eenvoudig te bedienen en zorgen voor uren plezier met warme handen.

Gerbing biedt een breed scala aan 12 volt verwarmde handschoenen aan. Deze zijn eenvoudig aan te sluiten op een 12 volt accu van een voertuig door middel van de accu-aansluitkabel. Ook zijn ze aan te sluiten op onze 12 volt draagbare batterijen waardoor onze verwarmde handschoenen ook gebruikt kunnen worden voor willekeurige outdoor activiteiten. Wij gebruiken de beste verwarmingstechnologie die er is en daardoor kunnen wij ook een levenslange garantie geven op de verwarming. Door middel van het hoogwaardige Microwire ® verwarmingssysteem, waarop patent is aangevraagd, zijn het de warmste handschoenen die ooit ontwikkeld zijn. Alle 12 volt verwarmde handschoenen worden geleverd met een accu-aansluitkabel en een in-line junior controller om de warmte van de handschoenen te regelen. Gerbing heeft de volgende typen 12 volt handschoenen in het assortiment: T-12 verwarmde handschoen: Een leren, waterdichte motorhandschoen met bescherming en een mogelijkheid om kleine batterijen te plaatsen (B12V-1400). G-12 verwarmde handschoen: Een basic leren, waterdichte motorhandschoen met een kortere schacht die. De G-12 heeft niet de mogelijkheid om gebruikt te worden in combinatie met kleine batterijen die in de schacht geplaatst kunnen worden. XR-12 verwarmde handschoen: Een leren waterdichte handschoen met extra knokkelbescherming. Net als de T-12 is deze handschoen ook te gebruiken met kleine batterijen. L-12 verwarmde handschoen. Een dunne lycra handschoen die veel gebruikt wordt bij het ultra light vliegen. Deze kan aangesloten worden op de accu van een voertuig maar kan ook aangesloten worden op een draagbare 12 volt batterij zoals de B12V-5200 of de B12V-8000. TEX-12 vewarmde handschoen: Een iets dikkere textiele handschoenen met wat extra gripprotectie aan de binnenkant van de handschoen. Deze kan net als de L-12 aangesloten worden op de accu van een voertuig of op de B12V-5200 of de B12V-8000. De TEX-12 is niet geschikt voor op de motor maar is geweldig voor de brommer, scooter of op de fiets. Al onze 12 volt verwarmde handschoenen zijn te combineren met met al onze andere 12 volt producten zoals de 12 volt verwarmde jas, 12 volt verwarmde broek en 12 volt verwarmde sokken

7 VOLT VERWARMDE JAS De meeste mensen zullen in eerste instantie denken dat de verwarmde handschoenen en verwarmde sokken de beste producten zijn! Het is echter zo dat op het moment dat handen en voeten koud worden dat veroorzaakt wordt door een koude romp. Op het moment dat de vitale organen te koud worden zal er extra warmte uit de handen en de voeten gehaald worden met als consequentie dat de handen en voeten als eerste koud worden. Daarom worden er ook veel meer 12 volt verwarmde handschoenen en 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen verkocht. Maar eigenlijk zijn onze verwarmde jassen functioneler. Nadat Gerbing een 12 volt verwarmde jas op de markt heeft gebracht voor de motorrijder zijn wij uiteraard ook begonnen met een verwarmde jas te ontwikkelen voor mensen die last hebben van kou bij willekeurige outdoor activiteiten. Dit heeft geresulteerd in een 7 volt verwarmde jas met afritsbare mouwen. Deze kan dus ook als bodywarmer gedragen worden. Deze jas heeft vier elementen. Twee elementen op de borst, één op rug en één in de kraag. Deze jassen worden geleverd met een 7 volt batterij kitje (B7V-2500 KIT) bestaande uit twee 7 volt batterijen met een ingebouwde temperatuurregelaar en één dubbele lader. Dit zijn dezelfde batterijen die gebruikt worden voor al onze 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen, 7 volt verwarmde sokken en alle overige 7 volt producten. De batterijen zijn eenvoudig te bedienen. Ze zijn voorzien van een powerknop en daarmee worden de batterijen aangezet en men kan tevens met deze knop de temperatuur instellen en de batterijen uitzetten. De verwarmde jas is verkrijgbaar in de maten XXS tot en met XXXL en zijn voor zowel mannen als vrouwen. De kleur is zwart. Deze 7 volt verwarmde jas draag je over één laag kleding en onder de gewone jas.

7V SOKKEN Gerbing staat bekend om zijn verwarmde handschoenen. Zowel de 12 volt verwarmde handschoenen als de 7 volt verwarmde handschoenen zijn algemeen bekend. Sinds kort hebben we echter ook 7 volt verwarmde sokken. Nadat we eerder al de 12 volt verwarmde sokken hebben geïntroduceerd is het nu de beurt aan de 7 volt sokken. De 12 volt sokken moeten aangesloten worden op een accu van een voertuig met behulp van een accukabel. Hierdoor konden mensen die ook bij andere activiteiten last hadden van koude voeten geen gebruik maken van deze geweldige uitvinding. Dankzij de kleine en krachtige 7 volt batterijen met ingebouwde temperatuurregelaar (B7V-2500) is het nu ook mogelijk om bij alle activiteiten er warmpjes bij te lopen. Men kan zelf de gewenste temperatuur instellen door middel van het indrukken van één knop. Dit is de power knop warmee de batterijen ook aangezet kunnen worden. De batterijen gaan op de hoogste temperatuur ongeveer twee tot drie uur mee en op de laagste stand ongeveer zes tot acht uur. Het gepatenteerde micro wire (staaldraad) dat verwerkt is in de sokken is niet voelbaar en verwarmt de hele onderkant van de voeten. De 7 volt verwarmde sokken worden geleverd met een 7 volt batterij KIT (B7V-2500 KIT), deze bestaat uit twee batterijen en één dubbele lader. De batterijen kunnen honderden keren opgeladen worden. De batterijen worden aangesloten op de sokken en door middel van een speciaal ontworpen kuitbandje kun je de batterijen mooi wegwerken. Dankzij deze sokken zullen veel mensen weer kunnen genieten van diverse activiteiten in de buitenlucht. De tijd van koude voeten en bevroren tenen zijn voorbij dankzij de 7 volt verwarmde sokken van Gerbing.

IMA condemns the stabbing of an on-duty government doctor in Chennai

"No amount of superficial damage control exercises by Governments is going to make doctors work without fear in this country. Strong deterrent legislation, exemplary punishments and proactive safety measures are required now and here. All Governments have been put on notice with this heinous crime. The medical profession of the country is deeply disturbed and is skeptical of the remedial measures on this ever-recurring violence. Only a comprehensive overhaul of the security atmosphere in the hospitals could restore the confidence of doctors. The nation owes this to its doctors," a letter from the IMA says.

Aim/Purpose: The study aims to explore the attributes of self-phubbing and partner-phubbing, as well as their impact on marital relationship satisfaction and the quality of communication. Furthermore, it aims to comprehend how these characteristics could impact an individual’s total level of life satisfaction. Background: The study aims to establish a clear association between specific mobile phone usage behaviors and their subsequent impact on relationship satisfaction and the quality of communication. This study investigates the effects of two types of behaviors on interpersonal relationships: self-phubbing, which refers to an individual being deeply absorbed in their own mobile phone use, and partner-phubbing, which refers to witnessing one’s partner being deeply absorbed in a mobile device. Methodology: This study utilizes a quantitative approach. The poll involved 150 smartphone users in Malaysia who are in relationships, and they participated by completing a questionnaire. The data analysis was performed using the Partial Least Squares-based Structural Equation Modeling method. Contribution: This research addresses the gap and gives insight into the consequences of self and partner phubbing and its impact on the relationship and life satisfaction among partners by providing a research model that was validated with primary data. Findings: The results of this survey show that smartphone conflicts harm relationship satisfaction but not communication quality. It was revealed that communication quality does not directly bring a negative impact on life satisfaction, but it directly affects relationship satisfaction, which, in turn, harms life satisfaction. Recommendations for Practitioners: The findings of this study can be used by practitioners to improve relationship counseling and therapy. Through the integration of the notion of phubbing and its impact on relationship happiness, couples can receive guidance on how to reduce the tension that arises from using smartphones. Recommendation for Researchers: Previous research was conducted exclusively on only an individual’s phubbing behavior, but limited work was done on the partner’s phubbing behavior. Future researchers can enhance this model by identifying more factors. Impact on Society: This study addresses broader societal ramifications in addition to the dynamics of particular relationships. This study promotes a more mindful use of smartphones by exposing the complex relationships between technology use, relationship happiness, and general life contentment. This will ultimately lead to healthier relationships and improved societal well-being. Future Research: In the future, we are going to implement an artificial neural network approach to test this data to predict the most important factors that influence phubbing.
