#7  Mar 18 - Hundreds of schools in path of solar eclipse cancel classes over safety concerns

@news      By HERMES      5 hours ago


The kids will be over the moon.

Hundreds of school districts from Maine to Texas that will experience near-total darkness during next month’s total solar eclipse will shut down or end classes early out of an abundance of caution.

The move is an effort to keep students safe, both protecting their eyes from harmful solar radiation and ensuring they safely arrive home as thousands of out-of-towners crowd small-town streets to catch an optimal glimpse of the rare cosmic phenomenon.

On April 8, the moon will pass between the sun and the Earth, briefly blocking out some or all of its light in one of the most stunning celestial events known to mankind.

Most of the US will be able to see a less-thrilling — but still very neat — partial eclipse.

But residents within a narrow 115-mile-wide band of the country, including 14 states, will be in a zone known as the path of totality, where broad daylight will be completely engulfed by darkness in a total solar eclipse, lasting for around four minutes.

Stargazers beware: NASA warns watching the sun as it’s slowly obscured by the moon’s shadow without specialized eye protection designed for solar viewing can cause serious eye injury.

With the start of the totality set to hit around the time school lets out across the US, many districts are giving kids the day off to be on the safe side.

Meghan Piper, public information officer for Liverpool School District in central New York, told NewsChannel 9 that the district would be closed on April 8, following discussions with local emergency management offices.

The district had originally planned to hold half a day of classes, but became concerned about getting kids safely to and from school in light of increased vehicular traffic as throngs of eclipse-gawkers descend on the area, she told the outlet.

“School districts in other regions of the country that have experienced total eclipses like this have encountered those issues and the district decided to make the switch.”

With parts of central and western New York directly in the totality’s path, dozens of schools are giving kids the day off or holding early dismissals. The totality begins in Buffalo at 3:18 p.m. EDT, according to NASA.

Meanwhile, the superintendent of Livingston Public Schools in New Jersey sent a letter to parents this week alerting them it would be dismissing early that day after consulting with the district’s physician.

With the eclipse expected in Livingston right around the time the 3 o’clock school bell rings, some parents and staff had expressed concerns excited students might damage their eyes trying to sneak a peek.

“Our physician added that the glare and distraction caused by the solar eclipse could also present a challenge with driving during this time, which might negatively impact the safety of our parents, staff, and bus drivers,” the letter read in part.

More than a dozen school districts within the totality zone in Central Texas have announced they will be calling off classes on April 8, with Manor Independent School District declaring it a student holiday on its website, KVUE reported.

“The decision came after consulting with local city organizations, Travis County Emergency Management, and the Manor Police Department and a*sessing the predicted extreme traffic conditions during the afternoon and evening of the eclipse,” the statement read in part.

Parts of the Austin metro area will go dark as the eclipse reaches totality around 1:36 p.m. local time.

In Central Indiana, a number of districts are shifting schedules, either canceling classes altogether or holding e-learning days instead.

One school that will be in session that day, University High School in Carmel, is using the occasion to teach students about the cosmos, hosting an eclipse viewing party led by science faculty, Indy Star writes.

It wasn’t the only school district to acknowledge the significance of the eclipse, with one anticipating it from the start of the school year.

Earlier this year, the superintendent of Rocky River City Schools in northeast Ohio reached out to parents to announce the district’s annual spring break would be extended by a day due to the timing of the eclipse, which will be in totality just as the school day usually ends.

Nearby Canton City Schools announced back in February on the district’s Facebook page that it would have a “calamity day” on April 8, noting that “Ohio is expecting a traffic gridlock around our dismissal times.”

The last total solar eclipse viewable in the US was Aug. 21, 2017, which NASA says was viewed by more than 215 million American adults, either live or online.

The next solar eclipse to be visible from the contiguous United States won’t be until 2044.

#10 Mar 18 - Trump: ‘Any j3wish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion’

10 people viewing this

@news      By Sh33d      5 hours ago

Quote:

Former President Trump on Tuesday claimed Democrats “hate Israel” and that Jewish voters who back Democrats hate their religion amid tensions between the Biden administration and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Trump, speaking with conservative radio host Sebastian Gorka, was asked why Democrats like Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) “hate” Netanyahu, a reference to Schumer’s recent call for new elections in Israel.

“I actually think they hate Israel,” Trump responded. “And the Democrat Party hates Israel.”

He suggested Schumer, who is Jewish, has become “very anti-Israel” for political reasons, citing large pro-Palestinian protests across the country amid violence in Gaza.

“Any Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion, they hate everything about Israel, and they should be ashamed of themselves because Israel will be destroyed,” Trump said.

Trump has repeatedly positioned himself as deeply supportive of Israel, citing his recognition of the Golan Heights territory, his relocation of the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem and his administration’s signing of the Abraham Accords to normalize relations among countries in the Middle East.

But he has also drawn backlash for frequently suggesting Jews who do not support him politically or who are not supportive of Israel are disloyal.

Trump in September shared an image on social media telling “liberal Jews” to “make better choices” amid celebrations of the Jewish New Year.

And in October, days after Hamas terrorist attacks that left more than 1,000 Israelis dead, Trump questioned how “anybody who loves Israel” could vote for Democrats.

President Biden has sought to balance his frustrations with Netanyahu and his administration’s support for Israel in its war against Hamas. The president has repeatedly a*serted Israel has a right to defend itself after Hamas’s attacks last October, while simultaneously urging Israel to do more to protect civilians and allow aid into Gaza.

Schumer last week said the prime minister had “lost his way,” pointing to the political and legal battles he has faced recently, while also allowing that the off-and-on prime minister’s “highest priority is the security of Israel.”

#20  Mar 18 - Putin planning buffer zone around border with Ukraine

3 people viewing this

@news      By Sh33d      8 hours ago

Quote:

Russian President Vladimir Putin said after extending his rule in an election that stifled opposition that Moscow will not relent in its invasion of Ukraine and plans to create a buffer zone to help protect against long-range Ukrainian strikes and cross-border raids.

The Kremlin’s forces have made battlefield progress as Kyiv’s troops struggle with a severe shortage of artillery shells and exhausted front-line units after more than two years of war. The front line stretches over 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) across eastern and southern Ukraine.

Advances have been slow and costly, and Ukraine has increasingly used its long-range firepower to hit oil refineries and depots deep inside Russia. Also, groups claiming to be Ukraine-based Russian opponents of the Kremlin have launched cross-border incursions.

“We will be forced at some point, when we consider it necessary, to create a certain ‘sanitary zone’ on the territories controlled by the (Ukrainian government),” Putin said late Sunday.

This “security zone," Putin said, “would be quite difficult to penetrate using the foreign-made strike a*sets at the enemy’s disposal.”

He spoke after the release of election returns that showed him securing a fifth six-year term in a landslide in an election devoid of any real opposition following his relentless crackdown on dissent.

Monday marks the 10th anniversary of Russia's seizure of Ukraine's Crimea Peninsula, which set the stage for Russia to invade its neighbor in February 2022. However, Putin has been vague about his goals in Ukraine since that full-scale invasion floundered.

Putin again warned the West against deploying troops to Ukraine. A possible conflict between Russia and NATO would put the world “a step away” from World War III, he said.

French President Emmanuel Macron recently said that sending Western troops into Ukraine should not be ruled out, though he said the current situation does not require it.

Commenting on the prospects for peace talks with Kyiv, Putin reaffirmed that Russia remains open to negotiations but won’t be lured into a truce that will allow Ukraine to rearm.


However, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has apparently shut the door on such talks, saying Putin should be brought to trial at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, which last year issued an arrest warrant for Putin on war crime charges.

With crucial U.S. aid being held up in Washington, U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham visited Kyiv on Monday. Ukraine desperately needs the around $48 billion that the package of support would provide, especially artillery shells and air defense systems.

Graham said he discussed the issue with Zelenskyy and suggested that aid in the form of a no-interest loan might get more more support from U.S. voters. He also denounced the result of Russia's presidential election as “not legitimate” and said he wanted to introduce legislation in the U.S. that would deem Russia a state sponsor of terrorism.

Ukraine’s air force said it intercepted 17 out of 22 Shahed drones launched by Russia over various regions of the country overnight. Russia also fired five S-300/S-400 missiles at the Kharkiv region and two Kh-59 at the Sumy region, both in northeastern Ukraine, it said.

Authorities say the intensity of ground attacks and airstrikes has increased recently in the Sumy region, prompting the evacuation of 56 people, including 26 children, from one border village over the past week.

In the past two and a half months the region has been struck more than 3,000 times, after some 8,000 strikes over all of last year, the Ukrainian regional government says. The number of aerial bomb attacks has tripled, and Russian saboteurs are highly active, according to officials.
