Adams, speaking from City Hall, said the city had a „moral obligation“ to help New Yorkers struggling to meet their own basic needs because of mental illness, even if those people resisted intervention.
The Democratic mayor has made addressing the city’s homelessness crisis a top goal of his administration since taking office in January.
“The Senate cannot leave until we get the job done, and Democrats will keep working with Republicans to find a path forward that everyone can support,” he announced on the Senate floor.
The Democratic leader began the so-called Rule 14 process on Wednesday evening to put a House-passed bill to avert the rail strike on the Senate calendar.

This overwhelming bipartisan vote in the House of Representatives makes clear that Democrats and Republicans agree that a rail shutdown would be devastating to our economy and families across the country. The Senate must now act urgently. Without the certainty of a final vote to avoid a shutdown this week, railroads will begin to halt the movement of critical materials like chemicals to clean our drinking water as soon as this weekend.

The House has passed legislation to block a nationwide rail strike by imposing a contract that has been rejected by unions representing the majority of freight rail workers.

Balad and several of its lawmakers have been disqualified by past elections panels, and have so far won every appeal to the High Court to be reinstated. The party is expected to make a similar appeal to return to November’s contest following Thursday’s disqualification.
Earlier on Thursday, Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara released a letter to the committee stating that there was no basis for disqualifying either Balad or the Islamist Ra’am party. The panel ultimately cleared Ra’am’s path to the ballot box, dismissing petitions that alleged the party supported terrorist organizations.

Despite appeals filed alleging that Ra’am „supports terrorism,“ the vote to allow their running passed 14-0, with representatives from Likud, the Religious Zionist Party, Yesh Atid, and Labor not present.
Israel’s Defense Minister Benny Gantz of the National Unity Party ruled on Thursday that all of his party representatives on the election committee will vote to disqualify Balad from running for parliament.

Israeli police attacked a funeral procession for slain Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh on Friday, beating mourners with batons and causing them to almost drop the coffin.
Thousands of mourners, some hoisting Palestinian flags and chanting “Palestine, Palestine,” attended the funeral for the Palestinian-American reporter, who witnesses say was shot and killed by Israeli forces on Wednesday while covering a military raid in the occupied West Bank.
The mourners tried to march with the coffin on foot out of a hospital to a Catholic church in the nearby Old City.

DoH not only encrypts the DNS request, but it also serves it to a “normal” web server rather than a DNS server, making the DNS request traffic essentially indistinguishable from normal HTTPS. This is a double-edged sword. While it protects the DNS request itself, just as DNSCrypt or DoT do, it also makes it impossible for the folks in charge of security at large firms to monitor DNS spoofing and it moves the responsibility for a critical networking function from the operating system into an application. It also doesn’t do anything to hide the IP address of the website that you just looked up — you still go to visit it, after all.
And in comparison to DoT, DoH centralizes information about your browsing in a few companies: at the moment Cloudflare, who says they will throw your data away within 24 hours, and Google, who seems intent on retaining and monetizing every detail about everything you’ve ever thought about doing.
The DNSCrypt protocol can use the UDP and TCP transport protocols.
DNSCrypt Clients and resolvers should support the protocol over UDP and must support it over TCP.
The default port for this protocol should be 443, both for TCP and UDP.
(August 2018)
To Simplify, TCP is just a collection of algorithms that extend UDP to make it support in-order delivery of streams. UDP on the other hand does not care about such streams and instead sends blocks of messages (called datagrams) in whatever-order and provides no guarantee what-so-ever that you will ever receive them.
UDP steht für User Datagram Protocol. Es ist ein verbindungsloses Transportprotokoll. Das UDP hat zwar ähnliche Aufgaben zu erfüllen wie das TCP, dabei arbeitet es aber – im Gegensatz zum TCP – verbindungslos und unsicher. Das heißt, als Absender weiß man hier nie, ob das versendete Datenpaket angekommen ist, da keine Empfangsbestätigungen gesendet werden. UDP wird hauptsächlich bei DNS-Anfragen, VPN-Verbindungen und Audio- und Videostreaming verwendet, da es durch seine vereinfachte Arbeitsweise schneller ist.
In a March 19 executive order, Zelensky invoked martial law to ban 11 opposition parties. The outlawed parties consisted of the entire left-wing, socialist or anti-NATO spectrum in Ukraine.

Pyongyang’s show of force, the 12th this year, means an end to its self-imposed moratorium on nuclear and a long-range missile testing.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said that it detected the launch from the Sunan airfield in Pyongyang at 2:34 p.m. and the missile flew some 1,080 kilometers at a top altitude of over 6,200 km.
Südkoreas Vereinigter Generalstab (JCS) teilte mit, dass der Abschuss vom Sunan-Flugplatz in Pjöngjang um 14.34 Uhr bemerkt worden sei. Die Rakete sei 1.080 Kilometer weit geflogen und habe eine Höhe von 6.200 Kilometern erreicht.
Nach Einschätzung des JCS sei die Rakete offenbar in einem steilen Winkel abgeschossen worden und nach Angaben eines weiteren Militärbeamten 70 Minuten lang in der Luft gewesen.

„I’m not saying it’s going to be legit,“ Mr Biden said when asked about the possibility of fraud in the forthcoming elections that will decide the balance of power in Washington.

Seit wenigen Tagen ist es Teil eines Ermittlungsakts der Wirtschafts- und Korruptionsstaatsanwaltschaft (WKStA).
Nach Recherchen von profil und ORF (auf Grundlage einer legalen Akteneinsicht durch verfahrensbeteiligte Personen außerhalb der Justiz und der Exekutive) war der amtierende Klubdirektor der FPÖ Norbert Nemeth vergangenen Montag bei der WKStA geladen. Er sagte als Zeuge im WKStA-Verfahren gegen Sebastian Kurz wegen vermuteter Falschaussagen vor dem „Ibiza“-Untersuchungsausschuss 2020 aus.
Erster und wohl wichtigster Punkt des Sideletters sind genaue Regelungen zu Postenvergaben in der Republik.

Und so wurde ein genaues Procedere festgelegt, parteipolitische Punzierungen der Höchstrichter inklusive.
In nearly every discussion these days about a possible plea bargain with the defendant Benjamin Netanyahu, supporters of a compromise repeat the same main argument: The deal with the former prime minister is necessary in order to undermine his attack on the justice system. This argument was made most prominently by former Supreme Court President Aharon Barak, who explained that he supported the deal because it would “take the sting out of the demolition of the court system.”
The FBI released a new statement Sunday night, attempting to walk back their previous comments that the hostage taking at a Texas synagogue, on the Jewish Sabbath, during services „…was not specifically related to the Jewish community.“
In the new statement, the FBI said, „This is a terrorism-related matter, in which the Jewish community was targeted, and is being investigated by the Joint Terrorism Task Force.“
The suspected hostage taker died at the scene. The hostages were released without injury.
The FBI was ripped on social media for the statement that the hostage taker had no direct demands related to the Jewish community, including calling for the FBI to be „defunded and eliminated.“
Two law enforcement officials told CNN earlier Saturday that investigators believe the hostage taker may have been motivated by a desire to release Aafia Siddiqui, who is serving an 86-year sentence at a facility in Texas. She was convicted in 2010 on seven charges, including attempted murder and armed assault on US officers in Afghanistan.
„We do believe from our engaging with this subject that he was singularly focused on one issue, and it was not specifically related to the Jewish community, but we’ll continue to work to find motive,“ DeSarno said.
Since negotiations for a plea bargain were first made public, Mendelblit has been harshly criticized by Justice Ministry officials and the legal team that manages Netanyahu’s corruption cases, which will be required to negotiate with the former prime minister’s defense attorneys on the wording of the amended indictment. Sources close to the attorney general also believe that he will have a difficult time converting those who oppose the deal in the time he has left.
Talks on a possible plea deal for Netanyahu in his criminal trial have progressed in recent weeks, with a potential solution found to the major sticking point left between his team and state prosecutors, Hebrew-language media reports said over the weekend. Netanyahu has been resisting a deal primarily due to Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit’s demand that his actions be designated as carrying “moral turpitude” — legally barring him from public service for seven years.
Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit is set to retire at the end of January. With with no permanent successor yet determined, it’s unclear if a new attorney general would offer the same deal if Netanyahu does not accept it within the next two weeks.
Mandelblit could see a plea bargain as favorable to end Netanyahu’s attacks on the justice system.
At current pace, sometime in late April we will pass a grim milestone: 1 million Americans dead from covid-19. If we get lucky and the omicron wave abates, that millionth death may not come until later in the spring, or the summer. But it will come, and soon.
Keep that in mind as you consider the latest news from the Supreme Court. On Thursday, by a 6-to-3 vote along party lines (and no, I won’t pretend the justices have no relevant party affiliations), they struck down the Biden administration’s mandate that large employers were supposed to require that their employees either be vaccinated or receive regular tests for covid-19.
To be clear, the legal resistance on display at the Supreme Court is not about vaccine efficacy or the idiosyncratic nuances of administrative law. It is to support Republican efforts everywhere to damage President Biden politically at the cost of suffering and death for millions of Americans.
Shame, shame on the Supreme Court.
A study published on Thursday found that women’s menstrual cycles did indeed change following vaccination against the coronavirus. The authors reported that women who were inoculated had slightly longer menstrual cycles after receiving the vaccine than those who were not vaccinated.
Their periods themselves, which came almost a day later on average, were not prolonged, however, and the effect was transient, with cycle lengths bouncing back to normal within one or two months.
Laut der gestern in dem Fachjournal „Obstetrics & Gynecology“ veröffentlichten Studie setzte bei geimpften Frauen die Blutung etwa einen Tag später ein als bei ungeimpften Frauen.
Die Dauer der Monatsblutung wurde demnach jedoch nicht beeinflusst. Den Forschern zufolge sind die Auswirkungen der Impfung auf die Periode gering und voraussichtlich nur vorübergehend.

All this makes me think about the stuff I’ve been working on over the last couple of years in the Collective Psychology Project (CPP), which I set up in 2018 – and in particular the importance of whether we respond to perceived threats by going into fight-or-flight or tend-and-befriend mode.
Fight-or-flight – or more accurately, fight / flight / freeze – is a natural reaction to threat or feelings of overwhelm. But it’s not particularly helpful in the face of a collective threat like coronavirus. It’s a primal response, not a considered one. It focuses on the interests of the individual, not the collective.
It’s been revealed the perpetrator had been in court last month for planning an attack.

Berlin, July 7 – German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas on Tuesday said that he supported the lifting of all Covid-19 restrictions once a vaccine has been offered to everyone in the country.
When this is achieved, there is „no longer a legal or political justification for any kind of restriction,“ Maas told the German Press Agency on Tuesday, adding that he expected this to happen during August.
Until now, that is. Yesterday afternoon the new broom that is Mr Javid suddenly looked alarmingly like his unlamented predecessor. His announcement that self-isolation rules are going to be dropped for the double-jabbed and under-18s was of course extremely welcome.
But why on earth has this long-overdue change been deferred until August 16, which is four weeks after so-called Freedom Day on July 19?
The Government has been accused of delaying „Freedom Day“ after revealing that fully vaccinated people will still have to follow self-isolation rules until August 16.
If it were safe, why delay implementation by five weeks, if not safe presumably no one will notice, given all the extra cases about to be unleashed

HTTP3, the third official version of hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), will not use the transmission control protocol (TCP) as did its predecessors. Instead, it uses the quick UDP internet connections (QUIC) protocol developed by Google in 2012.
(Sep 8, 2020)
The revival of HTTP request smuggling has led to devastating vulnerabilities in our modern application deployments. An HTTP request smuggled past the validation of an edge server can lead to serious consequences, including forged internal headers, access to internal management endpoints, and a variety of opportunities for privilege escalation.
HTTP/2 (or HTTP/3) is a promising solution to the issues we’ve faced with request smuggling, but support for HTTP/1.1 isn’t going away anytime soon. In the meantime, we’re still in for more surprises from our good friend HTTP/1.1.
In this post, I demonstrate how upgrading HTTP/1.1 connections to lesser-known HTTP/2 over cleartext (h2c) connections can allow a bypass of reverse proxy access controls, and lead to long-lived, unrestricted HTTP traffic directly to back-end servers.

The cancellation follows an explosive interview with AstraZeneca CEO Pascal Soriot on Tuesday night, in which he insisted the company didn’t have a contractual obligation but rather a „best effort“ to supply the EU with its vaccine.
Instead of the meeting, the company will respond in writing to Health Commissioner Stella Kyriakides‘ demand for more information, the Commission official said. AstraZeneca did not immediately confirm this plan.
The Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine has advantages that make it an attractive possibility. It can be stored at normal refrigeration temperatures, and its price is low relative to its competitors. Public health experts have long targeted it as ideal for use in lower and moderate-income countries because of these features.
The problem is that its U.S. Phase III trial was delayed because of an adverse event investigation in the fall, and the data from the international trials used by the U.K. government are difficult to interpret due to unplanned modifications to dosing levels.
Die EU-Arzneimittelagentur (EMA) schließt nicht aus, dass der Coronavirus-Impfstoff von AstraZeneca in Europa nur für eine bestimmte Altersgruppe zugelassen wird. „Ich werde der Entscheidung nicht vorgreifen“, sagte EMA-Chefin Emer Cooke heute in einer Anhörung im Europaparlament. Eine begrenzte Zulassung sei aber grundsätzlich möglich. Das werde genau geprüft.
President Trump has ordered that the major U.S. military command for the Middle East be expanded to include Israel, in a last-minute reorganization of the American defense structure that pro-Israel groups have long advocated to encourage cooperation against Iran, U.S. officials said Thursday.

Kangtai will be the exclusive manufacturer in mainland China for the vaccine made by AstraZeneca, and the companies could work together on deals for other countries. Kangtai is also in early trials for its own candidate.
– The Cabinet Office refused to deny that the draconian new laws were incoming after UK’s streets were busy
– They instead pointed to Matt Hancock’s vague statement on rules earlier today: ‚Follow the rules we’ve got‘
– Hancock refused to speculate when asked if harsher measures coming, such as curfews and closing nurseries
– Whitehall source said potential changes included introducing ban on people leaving their homes more than once a week

Clare Gardiner, head of cyber resilience and strategy at the UK National Cyber Security Centre — a branch of signals intelligence agency GCHQ — will become the centre’s first director-general, responsible for advising ministers on the “alert level” for the virus; which is similar to assessing the terror threat.
Ms Gardiner’s role at the NCSC involves advising businesses and public organisations on how to improve their cyber defences, and she will return to this post after her secondment at the centre. But her research background in epidemiology and medical statistics make her well-suited to the role, according to one person familiar with her appointment.
She will report to Dido Harding, who is in charge of the NHS test and trace service.
The decision to put a security official in charge is likely to cause consternation among public health experts, who have questioned whether the template of a terror analysis centre is appropriate for managing a viral pandemic,
Die 80-Jährige wurde gestern bei der konstituierenden Sitzung der Kongresskammer mit knapper Mehrheit für zwei weitere Jahre im Amt bestätigt.
Heading into the vote, there were also open questions surrounding the intentions of several incoming progressive lawmakers — including Cori Bush (D-Mo.) and Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) — who had knocked off Democratic incumbents in the primaries and had declined to forecast how they’d vote in the Speaker’s race.
In the end, however, those newcomers declined to go after Pelosi, citing a need for Democrats to unite heading into the new Congress.

The Government is aiming for two million people to receive their first dose of either the Oxford vaccine or the Pfizer jab within a fortnight as part of a major ramping up of the inoculation programme.
Also quoted in the memorandum was David Boslego, a retired US army colonel, who said the massacre was “a grossly excessive use of force” and “grossly inappropriate for an entity whose only job was to provide personal protection to somebody in an armoured vehicle”.

Ob in einem bewaffneten Konflikt eine Amtspflichtverletzung deutscher Soldaten vorliegt, bemisst sich nach der Verfassung, dem Soldatengesetz und vor allem den gewaltbegrenzenden Regeln des humanitären Völkerrechts. Nicht jede Tötung einer Zivilperson im Rahmen kriegerischer Auseinandersetzungen stellt auch einen Verstoß hiergegen dar. Ein solcher ist nach dem Urteil nicht deshalb gegeben, weil vor dem Befehl zum Bombenabwurf nicht habe ausgeschlossen werden können, dass sich im Zielgebiet auch Zivilisten aufhielten. Der Oberst i. G. der Bundeswehr habe bei Erteilung des Angriffsbefehls die ihm zur Verfügung stehenden Erkenntnisquellen ausgeschöpft, bei der notwendigen ex ante-Betrachtung eine gültige Prognoseentscheidung getroffen und somit keine Amtspflichtverletzung begangen. Diese Würdigung ist nachvollziehbar und verstößt jedenfalls nicht gegen das Willkürverbot des Art. 3 Abs. 1 GG.
Mehr als elf Jahre nach dem verheerenden Luftangriff im afghanischen Kundus hat das Bundesverfassungsgericht in Karlsruhe die Schadenersatzklage von Hinterbliebenden abgewiesen. Das Völkerrecht sehe individuelle Schadensersatzzahlungen nicht vor, nur Staaten könnten Reparationszahlungen verlangen, begründeten die Richter das Urteil (AZ: 2 BvR 477/17). Außerdem habe der damals kommandierende Bundeswehr-Generalstaboffizier Georg Klein seine Amtspflichten nicht verletzt.
The approval of Pfizer/BioNTech’s coronavirus vaccine on Wednesday was hailed as the light at the end of the lockdown tunnel that could finally revert Britain back to pre-pandemic normality.
But the breakthrough jab — shown to be 95 per cent effective at blocking Covid-19 infection — has thrown up a series of logistical hurdles that make getting the vaccine to those who need it most challenging, including care homes.
– Government data shows there were 1,230 coronavirus patients needing NHS treatment every day in England
– But only 938 of these were from ‚the community‘, meaning they definitely caught the virus in day-to-day life
(28.11.2020)
The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, which licenses drugs in the U.K., recommended the vaccine could be used after it reviewed the results of clinical trials that showed the vaccine was 95% effective overall — and that it also offered significant protection for older people, among those most at risk of dying from the disease.
In Trier ist ein Auto in die Fußgängerzone gerast. Nach ersten Erkenntnissen der Polizei starben dabei mindestens zwei Menschen. Der Fahrer wurde festgenommen. Die Hintergründe sind noch unklar.
The prime minister’s lawyers had also previously argued that the trial should be delayed due to coronavirus health restrictions, saying that it would be difficult to see whether a masked witness was „telling the truth.“
Was König Peter der Erste auf seiner Website formuliert, hätte Ballweg und seine Umgebung warnen müssen: „Auch die Natur arbeitet auf hierarchische Weise. Sie kennt keine ‚Demokratie‘. Wie könnte denn der Mensch meinen, daß er sich mit einer Demokratie an der Schöpfung ausrichten könnte? Es ist wider der Natur, also unnatürlich, und kann somit keinen dauerhaften Bestand haben“. Das ist so nahe am biologistischen Faschismus, dass kein Demokrat mit solchem Dreck zu tun haben darf.
Am vergangenen Wochenende organisierte Fitzek im thüringischen Saalfeld eine Veranstaltung für Gegner der Corona-Maßnahmen. Unter den Teilnehmern: führende Protagonisten der „Querdenken“-Bewegung, so auch der Kopf von „Querdenken 711“, Michael Ballweg. Dies ist bemerkenswert, da sich Ballweg offiziell von der „Reichsbürgern“ distanziert, wenn auch nicht unbedingt glaubhaft. So hat nach „Tagesspiegel“ -Recherchen der Pressesprecher von „Querdenken 711“, Stephan Bergmann, mehrfach deren Thesen geteilt.
Vorgesehen ist unter anderem, dass potenzielle terroristische Gefährder in den Maßnahmenvollzug kommen und damit bis zur Deradikalisierung eingesperrt werden können. (..)
Zudem soll ein „explizites strafrechtliches Verbot des politischen Islam in Österreich“ kommen, so Integrationsministerin Susanne Raab (ÖVP). Wie genau dieses ausgestaltet werden soll, ließ sie offen.
Innenminister Karl Nehammer (ÖVP) ist am frühen Dienstagnachmittag mit dem Generaldirektor für die öffentliche Sicherheit, Franz Ruf, und dem Wiener Polizeipräsidenten Gerhard Pürstl im Innenministerium vor die Medien getreten.
Austrian Interior Minister Karl Nehammer said at a Tuesday press conference that the suspect was shot dead by police about nine minutes after the first emergency call reached authorities.
During the news conference, it was explained that the number of hospital admissions is rising rapidly.
Scientists have made a projection to see how the number of daily admissions would rise over the next six weeks.
As shown by the graph below, the number would surpass the figures of the first wave.
While Boris Johnson will be the person announcing that catastrophic decision, the measures are being dictated by a small group of scientists who, in my view, have repeatedly got things terribly wrong.
The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) has made three incorrect assumptions which have had, and continue to have, disastrous consequences for people’s lives and the economy.
– SAGE said on October 14 that number of infections and hospital admissions were breaching worst case
– Warned that modelling suggested up to 74,000 people a day could be becoming infected in England
– Separate data from Office for National Statistics found almost 52,000 people were catching virus every day

The Interregnum comprises 79 days, carefully bounded by law. Among them are “the first Monday after the second Wednesday in December,” this year December 14, when the electors meet in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to cast their ballots for president; “the 3d day of January,” when the newly elected Congress is seated; and “the sixth day of January,” when the House and Senate meet jointly for a formal count of the electoral vote. In most modern elections these have been pro forma milestones, irrelevant to the outcome. This year, they may not be.
“Our Constitution does not secure the peaceful transition of power, but rather presupposes it,” the legal scholar Lawrence Douglas wrote in a recent book titled simply Will He Go?
According to the police, the pro-Trump caravan passed through Times Square, where it converged with a group of anti-Trump protesters who had marched from Brooklyn. The cars in the convoy were then blocked by counterprotesters, and some drivers got out of their cars to confront the anti-Trump demonstrators.
A member of the family told Fox News that the unprovoked attack happened while the family was driving down 5th Ave with the car windows down and Trump flags displayed.
The man, who wished to remain anonymous fearing his family could be targeted, said a car pulled up next to them and unleashed pepper spray into their vehicle.
Artsakh’s Human Rights Defender Artak Beglaryan released a video on his social media account showing the consequences of the night bombing. “This is the consequences of Azerbaijan’s deliberate strikes with 6 heavy missiles at the peaceful settlements of Stepanakert,” he said, posting the images of the ruins.
However, the missiles aimed at the power plants in Mingachevir were destroyed in the air, the strike in the direction of Ganja resulted in an accident on the Samukh-Gardabani 500-kilovolt overhead power line of international importance.
Legitimate military targets located in the Azerbaijani city of Ganja:
Bei einem Raketenangriff auf die aserbaidschanische Stadt Gandscha sind zwölf Zivilisten und Zivilistinnen getötet und mehr als 40 weitere Menschen verletzt worden. Mehrere Häuserreihen in einem Wohnviertel der 300.000 Einwohner zählenden Stadt seien bei dem Angriff heute zerstört worden, teilte die aserbaidschanische Generalstaatsanwaltschaft mit.
OVERNIGHT stays will be forbidden in northern virus hotspots for four weeks, Boris Johnson will announce today.
As well as the bed ban, residents can only leave the highest risk regions for essential travel such as work, education or health reasons, and must return that day.
Burnham told the Observer that by offering to pay only two-thirds of the wages of people hit by new closures – as opposed to the 80% which applied nationally under the original furlough scheme – ministers would be punishing people in the north in a way that was completely unacceptable.
Burnham said the Conservatives were betraying the people in so-called “red wall” seats who they had persuaded to vote Tory at the general election last December with pledges to “level up” the country.
Millions of people will be asked not to travel outside their local areas and could be banned from mixing with other households, even outdoors, amid fears that some hospitals in the North-West could be overwhelmed within days.
This weekend, Downing Street was briefing mayors and council leaders on the planned three-tier „Local Covid Alert Levels“ system of restrictions for England, expected to be announced by Boris Johnson on Monday.
With about 240,000 ballots mailed, that meant one in five voters received a wrong ballot. The error happened Saturday afternoon when someone changed a setting on a machine that places absentee ballots into mailing envelopes, Franklin County elections officials said Thursday.
The maps were drafted in consultation with health experts including former city health commissioner and Centers for Disease Control director Dr. Tom Frieden, Dr. Noam Ross of EcoHealth Alliance, and Dr. Michael Osterholm of the University of Minnesota.
Wollen die Großstädte auf die Hilfe der Truppe zurückgreifen, gilt das mittlerweile eingespielte Verfahren: Es wird ein sogenannter Amtshilfeantrag gestellt. Die Bundeswehr prüft dann, ob sie ihn erfüllen kann oder nicht.
Schon das vergangene Jahr sei, heißt es aus dem Verteidigungsministerium, mit Waldbränden und Schneekatastrophen anspruchsvoll gewesen. Doch die Corona-Krise stellt all das in den Schatten.
An dem Gespräch mit Merkel nahmen die Oberbürgermeister und Bürgermeister von Berlin, Hamburg, Bremen, München, Frankfurt am Main, Köln, Düsseldorf, Dortmund, Essen, Leipzig und Stuttgart teil.
Washington, D.C. (October 8, 2020) – In order to protect the health and safety of all involved with the second presidential debate, scheduled for October 15, 2020, The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) announced the following today:
The second presidential debate will take the form of a town meeting, in which the candidates would participate from separate remote locations.
Dem Beschluss zufolge will sich die Mehrheit der Länder an die Regelung halten. Bremen, Berlin, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Niedersachsen und Thüringen allerdings legten dazu eigene Protokollerklärungen vor.
In contrast, in non-restricted areas, people are free to travel to different neighbourhoods and continue their regular activities. The selective confinement has left many people feeling disappointed and confused. “In the end, it’s a little absurd […] every day, people in the neighbourhood have to leave their neighbourhoods and take public transport to go to do their work in other neighbourhoods that are not confined,” explains Miguel, a local to Vallekas.

Das Coronavirus hat die Welt weiterhin fest im Griff. Vor allem in den großen Städten sind die Infektionen in den vergangenen Tagen massiv angestiegen. Sowohl New York als auch Paris schlagen Alarm, in Italien wird eine landesweite Maskenpflicht im Freien geplant.
Indeed, the governor also announced that the state would take over supervision of enforcement of mask and social-distancing rules in the hot spot clusters, presumably putting the State Police in charge of New York City Police Department officers.
That deadline is a day earlier than Mayor Bill de Blasio had set — and equally irrelevant for the hundreds of Jewish schools in the areas, most of which are closed right now because of the Sukkot holiday.
Cuomo also announced that he would take over efforts to enforce social distancing and mask mandates in New York City areas with rising cases, many of which are home to significant Orthodox populations.
After initially leading the nation in positive coronavirus tests, New York City was able to get the virus under control earlier this year through strong messaging on the importance of social distancing and the widespread closures of businesses. But in recent weeks, city officials and residents had been watching the numbers tick back up, particularly in Orthodox Jewish areas.
Over the past two weeks, the number of new cases of the virus has been rising in pockets of the city, predominantly in neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Queens that are home to the city’s large Orthodox Jewish population.
Meanwhile, protests have raged again in Madrid, following the imposition of localised measures on particular districts that protesters say are punishing the poor. Comments made by Isabel Díaz Ayuso, the president of the Madrid region, suggesting ‘the way of life of immigrants’ was partly to blame for the rises in cases, have also sparked a fierce backlash.
A manifesto signed by various neighbourhood groups denounces the new measures as racist and classist, arguing that they single out the ‘individual behaviours’ of poorer residents for scorn when in all neighbourhoods rules are being broken.
Conte said the government would consult with parliament over extending the emergency until January 31.
Seit heute gilt in der mittelitalienischen Region Latium mit der Hauptstadt Rom eine Maskenpflicht auch im Freien. Auch das Heer soll dafür sorgen, dass die Maskenpflicht eingehalten wird, teilte das Innenministerium mit.
At the headquarters of Spain’s armed forces in central Madrid is a room with a sign on the door reading „Epidemiological surveillance department“.
Inside, a team of around a dozen people, headsets on, are working 12 hours a day, seven days a week, each making between 70 and 80 daily calls to identify those who’ve been in touch with someone who’s tested positive for COVID.
„I’m a contact tracer for the region of Madrid, I got your number from someone who has tested positive. Firstly, where are you right now?“ says one, using a phrase that will be repeated throughout the day.
Spain’s national government ordered two weeks of new restrictions that started at 10 p.m. Friday (2000 GMT) despite reluctance from regional officials.
The measures prohibit all nonessential trips in and out of the capital and nine of its suburbs — affecting around 4.8 million people.

Vorne mit dabei ist wieder Spanien und hier allen voran Madrid. Hier wurden nun erneut Ausgangssperren verhängt. Diese gelten natürlich wie immer nicht für den Arbeitsweg und vor allem nur in bestimmten und zwar den ärmeren Vierteln der Hauptstadt. „Ausgangssperre nur für Arme“ titelt unser Spanienkorrespondent Ralf Streck bei Telepolis.
It’s important to be precise: In practice, this legislation does not limit demonstrations, it bans them. The proposed restrictions are so draconian that they amount to a prohibition. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is attempting, in the most cynical fashion, to exploit the coronavirus and the restrictions needed to fight its spread in order to undermine fundamental democratic rights and to suppress the dissent against him and his incorrigible government.
Justice Neal Hendel has given the government a week — until October 7 — to respond to the Movement for Quality Government’s petition, according to an update by the plaintiffs on their Twitter account.
In einer höchst umstrittenen Entscheidung hatte die Regionalregierung am 21. September strikte CoV-Auflagen für die rund 850.000 Bewohner von ärmeren Stadtvierteln vor allem im Süden der Hauptstadtregion verhängt. Von Montag an gelten die Auflagen für weitere 167.000 Einwohner, sodass insgesamt mehr als eine Million Menschen betroffen sind.

“Ministers simply have to get a grip. It’s vital that testing capacity is increased immediately in London and focused in the areas it is needed most.
The council leader in the northern England city of Leeds says people will be barred from meeting members of other households indoors or in backyards. The measure affects more than 750,000 people.
In Cardiff, Swansea and Llanelli in Wales, households will be banned from mixing indoors.
Meanwhile London, home to almost 9 million people, is being labelled an „area of concern.“
The regional government of the Spanish capital Madrid extended a partial lockdown from Monday to 45 health areas of the region, affecting more than one million people,
The Madrid region authorities have ordered a lockdown in 45 areas, mainly the poorest ones, where the contagion rate is above 1000 cases per 100,000 people.
Madrids Regionalpräsidentin Isabel Diaz Ayuso hatte Anfang der Woche die Armee zur Hilfe bei der Eindämmung des Virus gerufen. Am vergangenen Wochenende war es wegen der Abriegelungen zu Protesten gekommen.
Die Höchstrichter sollen entscheiden, ob die Paragrafen 77 und 78 des Strafrechts – „Tötung auf Verlangen“ und „Mitwirkung am Selbstmord“ – der Verfassung widersprechen. Die Bestimmungen verbieten, was anderswo in Europa längst erlaubt ist: Sterbehilfe.
Today’s fresh plan includes:
– A 10pm curfew for all pubs across England – and they will be made to offer table service by law.
– There will be a significant cap on the number of guests allowed at weddings.
– But businesses and schools will be able to stay open as No10 attempts to stave off a second lockdown.
– A dramatic increase in enforcement measures to make sure people are obeying the Rule of Six.
– More fines could be slapped on those flouting the rules with on-the-spot closures for venues that fail to follow the rules.
– Facemasks will be made compulsory for staff in hospitality and close contact places – and taxis too
