Die intensivmedizinsche Versorgung von Covid-19- und anderen schwer kranken Patienten im Südwesten läuft nach Ansicht eines Experten rund. Zu verdanken ist das einem komplexen Bettenmanagement zwischen Kliniken.
Die intensivmedizinsche Versorgung von Covid-19- und anderen schwer kranken Patienten im Südwesten läuft nach Ansicht eines Experten rund. Zu verdanken ist das einem komplexen Bettenmanagement zwischen Kliniken. Ludwigsburg (dpa/lsw) - Trotz weiter hohen Infektionszahlen werden Corona- und andere Intensivpatienten in Baden-Württemberg dank eines ausgeklügelten Betten-Ausgleichssystems uneingeschränkt gut versorgt. «Das sogenannte Clusterkonzpet hat sich bewährt», sagt Anästhesist Götz Geldner vom RKH Klinikum Ludwigsburg, der für die Umsetzung der Strategie zuständig ist. Abstriche an der Qualität habe es bisher nicht gegeben. Auch nach Einschätzung des Gesundheitsministeriums hat sich das Verfahren bewährt, weil es einen Ausgleich zwischen stark und weniger stark von der Pandemie betroffenen Regionen in Baden-Württemberg ermögliche. Kern des Clusterkonzepts sind die sechs Versorgungsgebiete Stuttgart/Ludwigsburg, Karlsruhe und die Regionen um die Unikliniken in Tübingen, Freiburg, Ulm und Heidelberg mit einem gemeinsamen Betten-Management. Dieses basiert auf einem EDV-Tool, dem Ressource Board, in das jedes der teilnehmenden 120 Krankenhäuser im Südwesten bis 9 Uhr morgens die Zahl der belegten und freien Betten auf der Normal- und der Intensivstation eingibt. «Wir wollen eine ausgewogene Verteilung erreichen, bei der etwa 50 Prozent der Kapazitäten eines Hauses für die Notfallversorgung und der Rest für nicht verschiebbare Eingriffe und für Covid-Patienten zur Verfügung stehen», erläutert Geldner. Seit dem 11. Dezember wurde nach seinen Worten in allen Versorgungsgebieten 100 Corona-Intensiv-Patienten verlegt. Auf das größte Cluster Ludwigsburg/Stuttgart entfielen 48 Patienten. Dabei wurden acht von Ludwigsburg/Stuttgart in ein anderes Gebiet gebracht. 40 wurden innerhalb des Verbundes verlegt. Das Cluster Heidelberg schickte vier Patienten nach Stuttgart und Ulm. Karlsruhe hatte wegen Anfangsproblemen Patienten in andere Cluster abgegeben, jetzt werden dort 20 Patienten aus einem anderen Gebiet behandelt. In ein anderes Bundesland wurde eine Covid-Patient transportiert. Verlegungen nach Baden-Württemberg aus anderen Bundesländern oder anderen Ländern kamen laut Gesundheitsministerium nicht vor. «Im Schnitt brauchen wir etwa 30 bis 35 Prozent unserer Intensivkapazitäten für Covid-19-Kranke - dabei variiert die Spanne aber von 20 bis 40 Prozent», erläutert Geldner. Auch die Größe der Intensivstationen sei bedeutend, bei vier Plätzen in kleinen Häusern könnten die ungenutzten Kapazitäten schnell von 100 Prozent auf 0 sinken. Auch Virus-Ausbrüche beim Personal könnten zu Schieflagen führen, die durch das Clusterkonzept in den Griff zu bekommen seien. Für den Transport der meist beatmeten Intensivpatienten stehen Intensivtransportwagen (ITW) in Ulm, Konstanz, Stuttgart, Mannheim, Freiburg, Ludwigsburg und bei Engpässen auch Rettungswagen bereit. «Die ITWs sind kleine Intensivstationen», erklärt Geldner. Nur zehn Prozent der Verlegungen werden per Helikopter vorgenommen. Nach Worten des Mediziners bezahlen Krankenversicherungen zwar den Transport von einem kleinen in ein höherrangiges Haus - ob auch der in Coronazeiten nicht seltene Fall der umgekehrten Zuteilung finanziert werde, sei noch ungeklärt.

Key facts about North Korea's ruling Workers' Party congress

By Hyonhee Shin SEOUL, Jan 6 (Reuters) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un convened a rare congress of the ruling Workers' Party on Tuesday to lay out blueprints for his diplomatic, military and economic policy for the next five years. Here are some facts about the meeting. WHAT IS THE CONGRESS? It is designed to review the performance of the ruling party's Central Committee, a powerful governing body, in implementing policies adopted during the last congress in 2016. The gathering brought together 250 executives, 4,750 delegates elected to represent some 6 million party members, and 2,000 spectators, the official KCNA news agency said. The party charter previously required the congress to be held every five years, but only six such meetings had taken place until 1980 before Kim revived it in 2010. WHY IS IT IMPORTANT? The congress draws international attention as Kim is expected to unveil a new five-year economic strategy and outline his vision for military and foreign policy, just two weeks before U.S. President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in. It will offer the first glimpse into how Kim wants to shape his relations with the Biden administration, after his 2019 summit with then President Donald Trump failed to reach an agreement on dismantling North Korea's nuclear and missile programmes in return for sanctions relief. Kim will also address ties with South Korea and ways to promote reunification, according to KCNA. In 2016, Kim vowed to push ahead with the "byungjin" policy of developing nuclear weapons and the economy in parallel, which led to successful tests in 2017 of intercontinental ballistic missiles that can hit the U.S. mainland. Kicking off the congress on Tuesday, Kim claimed a "miraculous victory" in strengthening national power and global prestige, but said the economic plan failed "on almost every sector" amid the coronavirus pandemic, severe floods and sanctions. WHAT IS ON THE AGENDA? The congress approved four agenda items, also including a review of legislative and audit issues and the election of a new leadership. Nearly 75%, or 29 of 39 leaders newly took up their seats at the podium, lists from KCNA showed, as Kim has diluted the power of military commanders and replaced many old executives with younger loyalists, including his sister and party official Kim Yo Jong. The meeting will last some days, and Kim will likely give a message afterwards after skipping a New Year address last week, analysts said. (Reporting by Hyonhee Shin; Editing by Michael Perry)

Die gefährliche britische Coronavirus-Mutation macht laut einer Studie schon jetzt etwa ein Prozent der positiven Corona-Tests in Frankreich aus. Die Variante sei nicht konzentriert aufgetreten, sondern überall im Land zu finden, sagte Gesundheitsminister Olivier Véran am Dienstag bei einer Anhörung vor dem Sozialausschuss des Senats. Die Studie, deren detaillierte Ergebnisse noch nicht veröffentlicht wurden, umfasst alle positiven PCR-Tests vom vergangenen Donnerstag und Freitag. Ziel der Studie sei es, "eine erste Kartierung" der Verbreitung der britischen Variante in Frankreich zu erstellen, erklärte die französische Gesundheitsbehörde am Freitag. "Was in England passiert, wird wahrscheinlich auch mit uns passieren", sagte Anne-Claude Crémieux, Professorin für Infektionskrankheiten am Saint-Louis-Krankenhaus in Paris, am Dienstag im Sender RTL. Entweder das Virus sei erst zu ein bis zwei Prozent verbreitet, dann gebe es noch etwas Zeit für Maßnahmen - "oder wir sind bereits bei zehn bis 20 Prozent und müssen uns auf die englische Situation in den nächsten Tagen vorbereiten". Großbritannien ist von der Corona-Pandemie stärker betroffen als viele andere europäische Staaten. Die derzeit dramatisch hohen Ansteckungszahlen hängen auch damit zusammen, dass sich in England die neue Mutation des Virus schnell verbreitet hat. Erste Studien legen nahe, dass die Coronavirus-Variante B.1.1.7 um bis zu 70 Prozent ansteckender sein könnte als die bisherigen Stämme. Diese Mutation wurde auch in dutzenden anderen Ländern rund um den Globus festgestellt. Auch in Deutschland wurden einzelne Fälle dieser Virus-Variante entdeckt.

Hong Kong puts 10,000 people into lockdown - the city's first

Hong Kong has imposed its first lockdown of the coronavirus pandemic, telling residents in the affected area that it will remain in place until they are all tested. Around 10,000 people live in the Yau Tsim Mong district, which is expected to remain under strict measures for the next 48 hours. More than 3,000 personnel have been deployed by authorities to carry out the testing operation. The district, which is a working class neighbourhood with old buildings and subdivided flats, accounted for around half of Hong Kong's new COVID-19 infections in the past week. Recent sewage testing in Yau Tsim Mong picked up more concentrated traces of the COVID-19 virus, prompting concerns that poorly-built plumbing systems and a lack of ventilation in the subdivided units may present a potential route for the virus to spread. Hong Kong has previously avoided imposing lockdowns, with leader Carrie Lam saying in July that authorities would avoid taking such "extreme measures" unless there was no other choice. The restrictions, which were announced at 4am local time, are expected to end within 48 hours, the government said. Hong Kong has seen a total of 9,929 infections in the city, with 168 deaths recorded as of Friday.

Jan 6 (Reuters) - Futures tracking the Nasdaq 100 index fell more than 1% on Wednesday as investors priced in the prospect of Democrats winning both races in a Senate run-off election in Georgia that will determine the balance of power in Washington. Edison Research called one of the races for Democrat Raphael Warnock, unseating incumbent Kelly Loeffler, while Democratic challenger Jon Ossoff held a slim lead over Republican David Perdue in the other with 98% of votes counted. A Democrat-controlled Senate would give more scope for President-elect Joe Biden to act on his reform plans including new COVID-19 stimulus, but it could also mean higher corporate taxes and tighter regulations on the technology mega-caps - policies not typically favored by Wall Street. "A 'blue wave' might not be a bad outcome for markets as decisive fiscal action will help to accelerate economic recovery," said Vasu Menon, investment strategy executive director OCBC Bank, Singapore. "This will be broadly bullish for risk assets, particularly equities, credit, commodities, and emerging market securities." By 2:06 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were up 89 points, or 0.29%. Constituents of the blue-chip Dow are generally expected to benefit from a pickup in economic activity. S&P 500 e-minis were down 5.25 points, or 0.14%, and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 147 points, or 1.15%. Hopes of a vaccine-powered economic recovery in 2021 had powered Wall Street's main indexes to record highs in late-December, but sentiment has recently been dented by the discovery of a more contagious variant of the coronavirus and the latest restrictions. Analysts also expect the market to consolidate December's gains in January as asset managers look to rebalance their portfolios that had been heavily tilted toward equities.

Afyonkarahisar’da yaşayan ve toplumda cücelik olarak isimlendirilen akondroplazili çift, yaşadıkları evlerinin mutfak dolaplarının ve tezgahının boylarına uygun olarak yapılması için hayırseverlerden destek bekliyor. Afyonkarahisar’da yaşayan 33 yaşındaki Ercan ile 38 yaşındaki Aysun Kubaş çifti, düğünlerde ve okul eğlencelerinde palyaçoluk yaparak geçimlerini sağlıyor. Ancak pandeminin başlaması, düğünlerin iptal olması ve okulların uzaktan eğitime başlamasıyla 8 aydır işsiz olan cüce çift, maddi anlamda zor günler geçiriyor. 2 çocuklarıyla birlikte geçtiğimiz günlerde yeni bir apartman dairesine taşınan Kubaş çifti mutfaklarında yemek pişirirken büyük zorluk yaşıyor. Tezgahın önüne koydukları merdiven ile çeşmeye ve dolaplara yetişebilen çift daha öncesinde iki defa tezgahtan düşerek yaralandı. Kubaş çifti, hayırseverlerden 5 bin TL’ye yapılabilecek olan mutfak tezgahlarının ve dolaplarının boylarına göre yapılması için destek bekliyor. "Maddi zorluklarla karşı karşıyayız" Ercan Kubaş, pandemiden dolayı bir süredir işsiz olduklarını ve bu yüzden de maddi zorluklarla karşı karşıya kaldıklarını söyledi. Kubaş şöyle devam etti: “Pandemiden önce tiyatro, palyaçoluk yapıyorduk. Yeni bir eve taşındık ama mutfak tezgahı evimizin yaşam alanları bizim hayat şartlarımızı zorluyor. Siz yetkililerden ve yardımseverlerimizden bizim mutfağımız için destek istiyoruz. Mutfağımızın tezgahı ve dolapları yüksek. Eşimin rahatça ulaşabileceği, ben yokken de istediklerini alabileceği bir yer istiyoruz.” "Mutfakta çok zorlanıyorum" Aysun Kubaş ise, mutfakta kullandıkları merdiveni çıkarken çok zorlandığını ifade ederek sözlerini şöyle sürdürdü: “Mutfakta merdiven çıkarken çok zorlanıyorum. Üst tarafa yukarıya bir şey koyulduğu zaman almam çok zor oluyor. İki defa merdivenden düştüm. Yardım eden kimsem yok. Allah razı olsun ara sıra büyük kızım ulaşabildiği yerlere o yardımcı oluyor.

Relaxed scenes in Wuhan - a year on from alerting the world to COVID

Exactly one year after it thrust the word "lockdown" into the global conversation, Wuhan passed the anniversary on Saturday with a mix of pride at emerging from COVID-19's grip and caution over a possible relapse. A year ago, Wuhan shocked the world by confining its 11 million anxious inhabitants to their homes, beginning a traumatic 76-day lockdown that underscored the growing threat of a mysterious pathogen emanating from the city. At 10am that day, public transport was shut down and exiting the city was banned without special permission. An eerie silence descended. One by one, adjacent areas in hard-hit Hubei province quickly followed suit, as did governments worldwide as the coronavirus went global. But while the world's pandemic struggles continue, Wuhan today is nothing like the locked-down ghost town of a year ago, with traffic humming, sidewalks bustling, and citizens packing public transport and parks. "I was frightened last year but things have improved a lot since the epidemic has been brought under control," said a mask-less jogger in his 20s, who gave only his surname, Wang. He was one of many people exercising under hazy skies along Wuhan's Yangtze Riverfront on Saturday. "Life is like before, now." But memories of Wuhan's ordeal remain fresh, especially as localised COVID-19 clusters multiply across China, prompting mass testing in Beijing and targeted lockdowns in other areas. Huang Genben, 76, spent 67 days in hospital fighting COVID-19 last year, spitting up blood and expecting to die. "When I closed my eyes at night I didn't know if I would open them again," Huang told AFP. Like many of his countrymen, he expresses pride at the "great efforts" made by China's government and citizens to contain the pandemic, exemplified by Wuhan. The virus has killed at least 2 million people globally and continues to rage, but, in China, authorities have reported fewer than 5,000 deaths, the vast majority in Wuhan at the pandemic's outset. And Saturday's relaxed scenes - elderly dancers spinning in parks and crowded bars selling "Wuhan Stay Strong" craft beer – contrast with the rolling lockdowns, surging death rates and overwhelmed hospitals in other countries. The government has pushed an official propaganda narrative - starring Wuhan - focusing on a "heroic" Chinese response and recovery. But there are no known lockdown commemorations planned Saturday by Beijing, which remains tight-lipped on the pandemic's early days amid accusations of cover ups or mishandling the outbreak. The virus is generally believed to have spread from a Wuhan wet market where exotic animals were sold as food. But China has otherwise released little information on its origins, fuelling calls in the West for more transparency. The lockdown anniversary comes with World Health Organisation (WHO) experts just days from completing a two-week quarantine in Wuhan before launching a planned investigation into the coronavirus's origins. The WHO said Friday it was too early to draw any conclusions as to whether the pandemic started in China. "All hypotheses are on the table," said WHO emergencies director Michael Ryan.

LONDON, Jan 6 (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's "Herculean" aim to vaccinate around 14 million of the most vulnerable people against COVID-19 by the middle of next month is achievable, his vaccine minister said on Wednesday. Johnson has set a target of vaccinating the elderly, including care home residents, the clinically vulnerable and frontline workers - around 14 million people - by mid-February. Asked if it was achievable to vaccinate 14 million people by the middle of February and 2 million vaccinations each week by the end of this month, Minister for COVID Vaccine Deployment Nadhim Zahawi said it was. "It is a Herculean effort," he told Sky, adding that it was stretching but deliverable. He said that 1/4 of people over 80 years old had been vaccinated with their first shot.

Reisende müssen fortan innerhalb von drei Tagen vor Abflug einen Test auf das Coronavirus vornehmen lassen, wie die Gesundheitsbehörde CDC am Dienstag mitteilte. Fluggesellschaften dürfen demnach nur Passagiere an Bord lassen, die ein negatives Testergebnis vorweisen können. Die Vorgabe tritt am 26. Januar in Kraft. Die Behörde empfiehlt zudem, sich in den drei bis fünf Tagen nach Einreise erneut testen zu lassen und sich sieben Tage lang nicht nach draußen zu begeben. "Tests schließen nicht alle Risiken aus", erklärte CDC-Direktor Robert Redfield. "Aber zusammen mit einer Zeit des Zuhausebleibens und alltäglichen Vorsichtsmaßnahmen wie dem Maskentragen und Abstandhalten können sie das Reisen sicherer machen." Derzeit gelten ohnehin viele Reisebeschränkungen. Die USA hatten zu Beginn der Corona-Pandemie Einreiseverbote für Ausländer verhängt, die sich in den zwei Wochen vor einer geplanten US-Reise in den Schengen-Ländern, in Großbritannien, Irland, China, Brasilien und dem Iran aufgehalten hatten. Es gelten aber eine Reihe von Ausnahmen. Immer wieder gab es Berichte, dass die Reisebeschränkungen für Europäer bald aufgehoben werden könnten. Die USA sind das Land mit der höchsten Zahl der registrierten Corona-Infektionen und -Todesfälle weltweit. Seit Beginn der Pandemie wurden knapp 23 Millionen Ansteckungen und rund 380.000 Tote verzeichnet.

Tunç’a yapılan aşıdan sonra Mürsel Durmaz ve Şeref Kasım da aşılandı. Aşılama çalışmasına katılan İl Sağlık Müdürü Yüksel Pehlevan’a ise 2 ay önce Korona virüse yakalandığı için aşı yapılmadı. “Tüm vatandaşlarımızın da aşı olmasını tavsiye ediyorum” En yakın çözümün aşı olduğunu belirten ve vatandaşlara aşı olmaları konusunda tavsiyede bulunan Başhekim Sadullah Kıvanç, “Biz dört gözle bu haberi bekliyorduk. Vatana millete hayırlı olsun. Biz sağlıkçılar olarak aşılanmaya başladık, vatandaşlar da sıraları geldiğinde de aynısını tavsiye ediyoruz. Bir şekilde bitmesi ve gündemden kalkması lazım. Onun için de en yakın çözüm aşı. Bizler aşı olduk herhangi bir sorunla karşılaşmadık. Tüm vatandaşlarımızın da aşı olmasını tavsiye ediyorum. İnşallah kısa sürede bu virüsten kurtuluruz” dedi. “Zorunluluk değil gönüllülük esasında herkesi aşılıyoruz” Vatandaşları aşılanma hakkındaki kötü yorumlara karşı uyaran Başhekim Tunç, “Aşılama konusunda bir zorunluluk yok fakat büyük bir yoğunluk var. Personellerimiz aşılanmaya başlandı. Vatandaşlara tavsiyem ise öncelik sırasına göre sıraları geldiğinde aşılamalarını yaptırsınlar. Daha güvenli bir hayat onları bekliyor. Aşı olsunlar ve aşı vurulmama konusundaki kötü yorumlara kulak asmasınlar, hem kendileri için hem yakınları için aşı olmalarında fayda var. Biz hep aşı olduk çocukluğumuzdan itibaren, bunun bir zararı yok” diye konuştu. “Zamanı gelince bende aşılanacağım” Tüm vatandaşları aşı olmaya davet eden Kocaeli Sağlık Müdürü Yüksel Pehlevan, "Ben bir ay önce covid19 geçirdiğim için şuanda aşılama durumum yok. Aşılama nasıl oluyor bunu belirtmek istiyorum. Aşı yazıp TC kimlik numarasını, kimlik seri numarasının son 4 hanesini 2023'e SMS olarak yollayarak bunu öğrenebilirler. Aşılama mutlaka randevulu yapılıyor 182’den ya da merkezi hekim randevu sisteminden randevu alınarak yapılıyor. Kocaeli’ de kamu, özel hastaneler, aile sağlık merkezleri ve üniversite başta olmak üzere yaklaşık 796 noktada aşılama bugün itibari ile başlamış durumda. Kocaeli’ de yaklaşık 21 bin tane sağlık personeli bulunmakta, bu personelimizin 2 gün içerisinde aşılanmasını planlıyoruz. Aşılama pandemide önemli bir nokta fakat rehavete kapılmak için erken, bu sebeple maske hijyen ve sosyal mesafeye dikkat etmemiz lazım" şeklinde konuştu. “Aşının ikinci dozu 28 gün sonra yapılacak” İkinci dozun 28 gün sonra yapılacağını ifade eden Pehlevan, "Hep beraber vatandaşımızın katkısı ile beraber bu sürecin üstesinden gelebileceğimize inanıyoruz. Umarım bunun sonucunda da önümüzdeki bahar aylarında bu süreçten tamamen kurtulacağımıza ve yeni normal sürece geçebileceğimize inanıyorum. Bu süreçte yer alan bütün sağlık personelimize ve herkese gönülden teşekkür ediyorum. Aşılamanın sonucunda da bu işten temelli kurtulacağımıza inanıyorum. Aynı zamanda tüm vatandaşlarımıza bu süreçte gösterdikleri fedakarlıktan, maske hijyen ve sosyal mesafe kurallarına azami ölçüde dikkat ettikleri için teşekkür ediyorum. Bizim tek başımıza iyi olmamız yetmez, hepimizin sağlıklı olması gerekiyor. Bu süreci yakından takip etsinler, biz her türlü yardıma hazırız. Aşı ile ilgili herhangi kafalarına takılan bir problem olursa mutlaka iletişim merkezlerimizi arasınlar, numaraları 0262 550 5085, 0262 550 50 86 burada 24 saat hizmet veren personelimiz ve doktorlarımız var. Aşılama konusu ile ilgili sağlık bakanlığının internet sitesinden, aile hekimlerinden ve bizim çağrı merkezlerimizden takip edebilirler. El birliği ile bu işin üstesinden gelebileceğimize inanıyorum. Sağlıklı günler ve sağlıklı bir gelecek diliyorum" ifadelerini kullandı. İLGİLİ HABERLER

Kenya private sector activity inches up in December -PMI

NAIROBI, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Kenya's private sector activity increased only slightly in December as firms struggled with a jump in prices of materials and shortages in some cases, a survey showed on Wednesday. The Markit Stanbic Bank Kenya Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) rose slightly to 51.4 last month from 51.3 in November. The 50.0 mark separates growth from contraction. "The modest month-on-month improvement in the Stanbic PMI indicates that the pace of the post-pandemic recovery is slowing down," said Kuria Kamau, fixed income and currency strategist at Stanbic Bank. The PMI had reached 59.1 in October, the highest since the survey began in 2014, after the East African nation relaxed some of the lockdown measures put in place to curb the spread of the coronavirus. "A resurgence in COVID-19 cases as well as the re-introduction of lockdowns in some international markets has lowered expectations for the post-pandemic recovery in 2021," said Kamau.

.css-14iz86j-BoldText{font-weight:bold;}Pope Francis has formally changed the law in the Roman Catholic Church, allowing women to administer communion, read the gospel and serve at the altar. But the ordained priesthood will still be the preserve of men, he stressed in the decree. It is official recognition of roles already performed by women in some Catholic services, especially in Western countries. The Pope said women were making a "precious contribution" to the Church. The announcement is expected to force conservative Church leaders to accept greater involvement of women in the liturgy. On the more reformist wing of the Church, Pope Francis has tried to present a more welcoming image through his rhetoric, the BBC's Mark Lowen reports from Rome. But last year, after a synod to decide whether to allow women to become deacons able to preside over some Church services, the Pope refused to make the change, frustrating some who had hoped for more fundamental reform during his pontificate. The Pope changed a clause in canon law from "lay men" to "lay persons", specifying that they can perform "the ministries of lector and acolyte" in Catholic services. His decree, called a Spiritus Domini, was accompanied by a letter explaining "the urgency... to rediscover the co-responsibility of all of the baptised in the Church, and the mission of the laity in a particular way".

Britons in tears after floods damage homes for second year in a row

Residents of a town in the UK were reduced to tears on Saturday after a river burst its banks and flooded their homes - just a year after a similar disaster occurred. The town of Bewdley, in Worcestershire, saw its flood defence barriers breached after heavy rain caused the River Severn to overflow, sending deep, muddy waters gushing into streets and homes. In response, firefighters deployed boats to rescue those who were trapped by the flooding, according to British broadcaster Sky News. One resident, Dan Madden, broke down in tears as he called upon Prime Minister Boris Johnson to install a permanent flood barrier, which could stop such an incident happening again. The heavy rainfall came as a result of Storm Christoph, which swept across the UK this week, prompting the UK's Environment Agency to warn of "exceptionally high river levels".

Striker out due to hamstring problem as Carlo Ancelotti reiterates his belief football should continue during lockdown
Striker out due to hamstring problem as Carlo Ancelotti reiterates his belief football should continue during lockdown Everton will be without top scorer Dominic Calvert-Lewin for their trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Tuesday. Calvert-Lewin has suffered a hamstring injury, although manager Carlo Ancelotti indicated it is not a long-term problem for his striker. “I think soon he can recover,” said Ancelotti. “He had a little problem during the week before West Ham but for the fact he has never had this kind of injury he was not able to judge himself at 100 per cent. He played the game against West Ham, which means it is not a really important injury, but we want to keep him safe and, when he comes back, to be 100 per cent.” Everton will also be checking on Richarlison before the trip to Molineux, although James Rodriguez is available after starting against Rotherham in Saturday’s FA Cup victory. Ancelotti, meanwhile, has reiterated his belief football should continue during the lockdown, although he would not be adverse to tighter rules. The Italian was surprised by suggestions Premier League players have been flouting guidelines with overzealous on-field celebrations, but said he would have no objection if hugging team-mates was banned. “Honestly, there is no rule that says you are not allowed to celebrate,” said Ancelotti. “We are really strict to follow the rules that the Premier League have put in place, to follow the protocols, and if the Premier League say you don’t have to celebrate - you don’t have to hug - we’re not going to celebrate. “Until they say this, I think this is the only reason, because at least we are really strict to follow the protocols.” So far, Everton have managed to avoid the kind of series covid outbreaks that have affected other Premier League clubs, forcing training ground closures. “We’re wearing masks in the dressing room, we try to keep social distancing, and so on. We’re really strict at following the protocols,” said Ancelotti. “If they say to us, don’t celebrate, we are not going to celebrate. “It will not be a big problem if you are not allowed to celebrate if you score goals. We adapt to everything. Now, a manager doesn’t celebrate after a goal. If you see there are no managers who celebrate because you have to wait for the Var check. And so the celebration for the manager has gone and it can also be done for the players.” Ancelotti quipped the best way to avoid controversy would be for a series goalless draws. “If we don’t score goals and that would be better, no?” he joked. “If you don’t score a goal, you don’t have to celebrate!”

Shanghai stainless steel extends rally on firm demand, nickel's surge

By Enrico Dela Cruz MANILA, Jan 6 (Reuters) - China's stainless steel futures jumped to a three-week high on Wednesday, extending a rally fuelled by brisk demand coupled with low inventory and a surge in prices of raw material nickel. The most-traded stainless steel contract with March expiry on the Shanghai Futures Exchange ended daytime trading higher by 1.6% at 14,030 yuan ($2,172.84) a tonne, after earlier hitting 14,165 yuan, the strongest since mid-December. "The current spot market is tight, and downstream demand has been doing well while export orders are good. The price of ferronickel at the raw material end has remained high," analysts at Huatai Futures said in a note. Nickel prices surged to two-week highs on Monday as concerns over supplies surfaced after an earthquake in major supplier Indonesia. The earthquake shook the island of Sulawesi, causing minor damage to buildings in Indonesia Morowali Industrial Park, where China's Tsingshan Holding Group produces nickel pig iron, though operations were generally unaffected and production continues. Chinese stainless steel producers mainly use nickel pig iron, a low-grade ferronickel and cheaper alternative to pure nickel, as feedstock. Iron ore futures see-sawed, with the most-active May iron ore contract on the Dalian Commodity Exchange clawing back earlier losses to close 0.3% higher at 1,033.50 yuan a tonne. Iron ore's February contract on the Singapore Exchange slipped 0.1% by 0709 GMT, subdued after three straight sessions of gains. Lingering concerns over tight supply of iron ore pushed spot prices of the steelmaking raw material in China, the world's top steel producer, further closer to $170 a tonne on Tuesday, according to SteelHome consultancy data. <SH-CCN-IRNOR62> Construction steel rebar on the Shanghai exchange lost 0.3%, while hot-rolled coil gained 0.4%.

Meet the Michelin starred chefs providing fine dining at home

The rise of ‘at home’ food boxes has been phenomenal since lockdown began. A wide range of venues – from greasy spoons to Michelin-starred fine dining restaurants – have been adapting their menus for us to enjoy at home. Northcote, Lancashire, UK Lisa Goodwin-Allen, head chef at the Michelin-starred Northcote in Lancashire UK’s Ribble Valley, has seen her boxes fly out in super-quick time. Last week the restaurant sold almost 700 in under half an hour, and many on social media have likened the rush to grab one as being akin to trying to secure Glastonbury tickets. “You get some people who are really frustrated on the phone that they’ve missed out and you’re saying to them that it’s almost like trying to get tickets for a concert,” says Goodwin-Allen. “The capacity and volume is massive but it’s essentially 700 portions of food. I’ve learnt so much from doing these boxes and it’s been amazing. It’s not just creating a plate of food, it’s the packaging, what keeps it safe, what’s the shelf-life and also what it looks like when it arrives with the customer.” “I didn’t want to downgrade it – it was about doing things with sauces and presentation that people wouldn’t necessarily be able to do at home.” Eagle-eyed readers based in the UK may have seen Goodwin-Allen on the festive edition of the Great British Menu. In the episode, some of the country’s top chefs went head-to-head to get dishes into a special banquet - held remotely as is the way during the pandemic - to honour NHS and key worker heroes. Goodwin-Allen got not one, but three dishes into the final banquet - and even got to serve her creations to frontline staff, mid-shift, at a hospital. And it’s an experience Lisa says she’ll never forget. “There was a lot of blood, sweat and tears but it was an incredible experience. I put a lot of time and effort into it and when we were doing it, it was crazy. “It was brilliant to be doing it for such a special occasion and saying thank you to these heroes who have been there in our hour of need. “Hearing the stories of some of the people who’d put their lives on hold and basically moved away from their families for weeks to go into hospital to care for people really gave you a sense of empowerment.” At some point, the hospitality industry will re-open and people will be able to leave their homes and once again enjoy the delights of dining out. But Goodwin-Allen believes that the hunger for the ‘at home’ experience will remain. She said: “I think it’s there in the pipeline to carry on, but obviously the numbers will be downgraded because we can’t manage that kind of capacity with the restaurant open. “The kitchen is to service the restaurant. We’re incredibly lucky that the size of the kitchen at Northcote has allowed us to be able to do 350-plus boxes. You could move it away from the site with a different team, but I think you lose the touch and the feel of it because at the minute it all comes through Northcote.” The Angel at Hetton, Skipton, UK Just over the Pennines in North Yorkshire, Michael Wignall, chef proprietor of The Angel at Hetton near Skipton, has just opened bookings for nationwide delivery. The Angel, a pub with rooms, initially offered ‘at home’ boxes for collection. The five-course tasting menu is priced at £65 per person – plus delivery – and includes grilled lemon sole to start, a celeriac velouté with truffle, apple and preserved lovage, slow cooked salt aged pork for main, a cheese course and a delicious-sounding caramelised pineapple dessert. A vegetarian box is also available. Wignall said: “I want to do stuff that perhaps - not replicates what I do in the restaurant - but comes close to that. “I think of a menu that’s doable at home and how much can we pre-prepare. It’s about getting something of a high quality that you can’t necessarily buy in a shop but that’s got your signature. You don’t want to bombard people with technical elements because you want to make it as stress-free as possible. “But you do want people to really enjoy the experience – it’s not just reheating things in bags and putting it on the plate.” For many, the presentation of the food is as much a part of the restaurant experience as the food itself. One of the features of Wignall’s boxes is that they come with the plating up of the dishes sketched out by the chef. He said: “I’ll start a dish – especially a new dish – by sketching it out and getting my thoughts down on paper. You don’t have to be a great artists – you just take it in more if it’s visual. “I think to have that in the recipe box, people will learn quicker seeing that. It might make sense to us but to a home cook it might not.” Wignall, who bought the pub in 2018 after building his reputation - and collection of Michelin stars - at some of the country’s top eateries, says lockdown has given him an opportunity like never before. “I’ve got books on the shelf – cookbooks – that I hadn’t had a chance to read before and there’s plenty of things to look at and learn. “We’re doing things differently now. I know we’ll come out the other end a better business and hopefully the customers will appreciate that and the staff will come out of it with better welfare conditions. “I don’t think we’ll ever go back to having tables at 9.30pm, 10pm at night so the staff aren’t finishing until 2am. In the UK, it’s not the same as on the continent where people want to dine at 9pm.” Unlike Lisa though he doesn’t think The Angel at Hetton will continue with the boxes once the hospitality industry is, eventually, allowed to re-open so you better act fast! He said: “When we first did them there was only 10 or 11 places doing it and the demand was there. A lot of places are doing it now and it’s great whilst those places are closed but even after the first lockdown when places were re-opening we saw a massive decline in it. “We were only doing collection so it might have been different had we been doing it nationally, but you have to question yourself because you’d end up having so many people doing takeaway and that could jeopardise what you’re doing in the restaurant. “After the first lockdown, we were packed out for lunch and dinner for months and that’s brilliant. It is a survival thing at the minute and it’s about staying relevant.” For more information about the Angel at Home boxes click here. Franceschetta 58 at Home, Modena, Italy He’s hailed by many as the world’s top chef and now three-Michelin starred Massimo Bottura, is offering a lucky few the chance to experience dishes from his Franceschetta 58 restaurant at home. The offering includes some of the most popular dishes from the restaurant – the little sister of the incredibly popular Osteria Francescana – including the Emilia Burger, stuffed rabbit and calamarata with smoked clams and parsley. All come with full instructions and only take around 15 minutes to prepare. And the price? A mere €16 for a main. Delivery is available in Modena and Milan via MyMenu. Pavillon Ledoyen, Paris, France and Italy Not only is Pavillon Ledoyen one of Paris’ top restaurants it’s probably in the most spectacular location in the city, located in the eastern gardens on the Champs-Élysées. And while a visit may be impossible at the moment, Parisians – and those living in the suburbs of the French capital – can still enjoy an array of treat from the three-Michelin starred kitchen of chef Yannick Alléno. It doesn’t come cheap – the weekend brunch is €75 plus delivery – but a little bit of luxury is what’s needed right now. Orders can also be collected. For more information click here.

How to really listen to what someone you care about is saying

It's an important yet underrated skill that may seem like a small gesture but it can make a huge difference to a loved one's wellbeing
It's an important yet underrated skill that may seem like a small gesture but it can make a huge difference to a loved one's wellbeing The Covid pandemic has been like a pressure cooker for all kinds of issues that can really affect our mental wellbeing. Isolation and loneliness, family and relationship issues, mental and physical health or illness, employment and money worries... as if these weren’t already hard enough to cope with, they have been exacerbated by lockdown and the swirling uncertainties of 2020. Now, more than ever, it’s so important that we take time to check-in and connect with our loved ones – whether it’s friends, family members, partners, colleagues or neighbours – to talk about how we are feeling and listen to one another in a way that can prevent feelings of concern or worry from escalating into more severe distress. The skill of listening can play a vital role here. It is so important, yet so underrated. There are many reasons we don’t listen well – in the cut and thrust of daily life, we might simply forget to show how much we care or to give one another the time and space that leads to better conversation. Or, when we see someone we love and care about suffer, we immediately want to jump in and fix it for them to make it stop hurting and help them feel better. Sometimes we want to be heard ourselves, to talk about when something similar happened to us, explore our own feelings, opinions and experiences – often with the ambition of giving advice but sometimes because we know that it’s good to talk, but it’s even better to be heard. As humans, we crave attention. However, jumping straight into solutions isn’t always helpful. Sometimes, when people are struggling with anxious or depressive thoughts, they have low feelings of self-worth which can cause thought patterns such as “nobody cares” or “I feel so worthless, I can’t do anything right”. By trying to fix a problem rather than simply accept it for what it is, you might be inadvertently implying to that person that they can’t sort out their own issue for themselves. This then feeds into the negative thought loop that they’re not good enough or can’t cope. If you don’t really listen to what someone is saying to you, they might think “Why am I even bothering to talk about this when you don’t seem to care?” and retreat further into themselves. Or, they might compress feelings until they explode in an argument of “You’re not even listening to what I’m trying to say”. This can increase low moods, cause upset and result in a tendency to not speak up again for fear of causing turmoil. To repress these feelings or not be able to express them in a calm ordered way can mean that, if left unchecked, they intensify. Every single person I interviewed for How To Listen told me that the most important part of being really listened to was a feeling of validation. That by being held in a safe space and given the time and room to really be heard, as opposed to being fixed or told what to do, reassured them that what they were feeling was OK – even if they admitted to being scared, anxious, upset, numb or completely out of control. They realised it was absolutely fine to not feel fine at all. Saying their thoughts out loud and having them accepted validated their feelings, made them feel less alone and this led to a sense of calm. They could then begin to understand what was going on and work out a way through a situation that felt scary or chaotic. As well as being comforted by the calmness and empathy of the listener, it gave them back the power to realise that, actually, they were good enough. And they could get through this. It’s important to make time one-on-one to have a good conversation. We can’t go to pubs at the moment but, in any case, a busy loud pub isn’t a great place to connect, so organise a quiet catch up when there’s nothing else going on. If a face-to-face deep and meaningful feels too confrontational, go for a walk or a drive – being side by side rather than face-to-face can help people open up and there will be a natural ending to the conversation once the journey is done, so it can feel safer. Or, take part in an activity together – the cognitive act of doing something physical actually opens up the emotional part of the brain, so it’s easier to get to the root of feelings and emotions. When listening to friends, family or loved ones, it’s natural that tensions will arise and emotions will be present because we care about one another and we know each other well. But there’s no right or wrong in listening, the main thing is to show up and show that you care, demonstrate that you’re willing to try and hear what it is that person is trying to tell you. It takes a lot of courage to reach out and ask for help, or to admit that something is wrong. Initially, all you need to do is take a deep breath and say: “OK. I’m listening. Tell me a little bit more.” A huge part of being a better listener is simply recognising that the person speaking doesn’t need any more from you than that – just pay close attention and keep the conversation going, letting the person talk through all their options until there’s nothing left to say, without giving advice like “perhaps you could…”, “have you tried…” or “maybe you should…”. There are a few more tips and tricks that help you to listen better. Firstly, show you care by showing compassion and giving time and your full attention. Reassure the person that you won’t judge them. Then have patience as they try to work out their feelings. Ask open questions so as not to shut the conversation down and offer small phrases of encouragement to keep the person talking, like “Yes?” or nodding and saying, “Can you just tell me a bit more?”. Don’t be afraid of silence. Keeping quiet can allow someone to process their thoughts and work out what else needs to be said. Just keep the conversation flowing, then clarify what you’ve heard to see if it’s correct or if there’s still something to talk through or a different way of looking at things. The end goal when you are listening to someone is not to have everything neatly tied up and sorted out. It’s about letting the person know that you are there alongside them in the moment.

India Brisbane boycott reports raise tensions ahead of third test

By Nick Mulvenney SYDNEY, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Reports of Indian discontent at the prospect of being forced into strict quarantine for the fourth test against Australia in Brisbane could raise tensions on the field in the series' third match, the home side's captain Tim Paine said on Wednesday. Paine said the reports at the weekend that India might refuse to play at the Gabba had started to annoy some of his players and could result in a backlash when the third test starts at Sydney Cricket Ground on Thursday. "I think there's a bit of tension starting to boil under the surface with a lot of unnamed sources coming out from their camp saying where they want to play the fourth test and where they don't want to go," he said in his pre-match news conference. "I think it's starting to grind a few people, so we'll see how it goes." Indian officials have made no statements about the issue, and Cricket Australia boss Nick Hockley said on Monday he had heard nothing from them to suggest they were unhappy with the arrangements for Brisbane. India captain Ajinkya Rahane on Wednesday admitted that quarantine was a burden but sidestepped all questions about a potential Brisbane boycott, saying such issues were for the "BCCI and the team management". "Quarantine life is definitely a challenge, especially we know that in Australia, in Sydney especially, the life is normal," he told reporters. "The players are stuck in the room, which is okay. We know how to handle it, we are prepared for any kind of situation. We are not at all annoyed. We know what's our priority here. "We are here to play cricket and we just want to do that. Starting from tomorrow, start well in the test match and, as a team, as a unit, we are just focused on playing some good cricket." The series is nicely poised at 1-1 and some in the Australian media have suggested that India would just prefer to avoid the Gabba, where India have never won, and play the fourth test in Sydney, where they have a better record. Paine said Australia would turn up and play the fourth test anywhere. "When you hear things like that coming, particularly from India, who we know hold a lot of power in world cricket, it's likely that it could happen," he said. "But we're not too fussed. We're not buying into where the test is being played. As far as we're aware it is at the Gabba, but as I said in the team meeting the other day, we couldn't care less. "If you rang us up and said it's in Mumbai tomorrow, we'd get on a plane and we'd go and play it. That's the way we are looking at it." (Reporting by Nick Mulvenney, ; editing by John Stonestreet)

Against the odds, London became the world's greatest restaurant city - and it can rise again

The capital's restaurants are in dire straits, writes our Luxury Dining expert, and they deserve our support. Here's how you can help
The capital's restaurants are in dire straits, writes our Luxury Dining expert, and they deserve our support. Here's how you can help “Loneliness is a luxury for people like me,” Karl Lagerfeld once said. Having spent the past 20 years of my life living in restaurants for work and pleasure, for a long time I agreed with the legendary designer. What could be more restorative than supper alone at home after five straight nights eating and partying my way the length and breadth of London? The past 12 months have taught me to be careful what I wish for. I used to long to spend a Christmas free from family obligations, instead cycling through the empty avenues and cloistered squares of the City and West End. This year, my wish was finally granted – only for it to feel no different to the previous, shuttered-up two weeks. Every day now looks like Christmas Day in the deserted streets of central London. Except, like Narnia, it is always winter but never Christmas. This has been a nuclear winter for the restaurant industry, the yo-yoing between tier restrictions and lockdowns an eating-out apocalypse. Christmas is usually the busiest time of year for restaurants, which make 30 per cent of their annual profit during the boozy days of December. Ten days before Christmas 2020, however, restaurants were forced to close their doors again and see in the new year with empty bank accounts – and no customers for the next three months to replenish the coffers. Any hope that life might begin to return to normal by Easter is dampened by the fact that, come 31 March, restaurant tenants will no longer be protected from eviction. Just when restaurants should be welcoming diners back, many instead face the prospect of closing for good because of rent debt. It was estimated in December that the hospitality industry’s unsettled rent from the Coronavirus crisis stands at £1.6 billion – and that was before the current lockdown was imposed. Even the most optimistic outlook for the UK restaurant industry puts closures over the next 12 months at 30% (pessimists reckon on 70%). Throw in Brexit and it’s no wonder that the new £9,000 grant for hospitality businesses has been described as ‘a sticking plaster’ by Katie Nicholls, chief executive of UK Hospitality. The dire numbers keep on piling up in numbers almost too big to compute. There were 30,000 job losses in UK hospitality in 2020 and the sector suffered lost sales of more than £53 billion. This is from an industry that is the third largest employer in the UK – over 3 million are employed in hospitality and a further 2 million dependent on it – and one that generates £130 billion in economic activity and £38 billion in taxation. No wonder that today [11 January] MPs will discuss the creation of a Minister for Hospitality to champion the sector in government, a move advocated by big-name chefs including Angela Hartnett and Tom Kerridge. Restaurants that once illuminated pavements with a kaleidoscope of light are now dark kitchens of a different kind, as much of a relic of a vanished civilisation as the boarded-up shopfronts and curtained theatres nearby. Like many food lovers, I spend my lockdown walks making a mental note of which restaurants to visit when, and if, they reopen. Never has the instruction to use it or lose it felt more urgent. The closure of a brace of two Michelin-starred restaurants in the same month would once have seemed unimaginable. But when The Greenhouse and The Ledbury formerly the UK’s highest-ranking restaurant on the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list – both announced last June that they would not be reopening, it felt like a bitter taste of the new normal. Each restaurant was an eloquent testament to the life-enhancing potential of ravishing ingredients and exquisite craftsmanship. But I mourn just as keenly the restaurants that were landmarks for more personal reasons. Hung’s on Wardour Street, where I had my first taste of Chinatown when I moved to London after university. Or Counter Culture in Clapham, the saving grace of my four-month stint living south of the river, where the menu of nine cured and fermented small plates felt like Noma with a BYO policy. Every Londoner could now compile their own 50 best list, made up of their favourite restaurants to have closed since spring 2020. The past 25 years have transformed the capital’s food scene from an international joke to a global tourist attraction. Londoners have grown used to their restaurants being described in envious superlatives. The finest Indian food outside the subcontinent. French bistros better than you’d find in Paris. Dim sum to rival the dumpling palaces of Hong Kong. Restaurants are the heartbeat of high streets across the capital. But if the direst predictions of the demise of the London restaurant scene come to pass, all that will be left is a handful of hospitality groups with the deep pockets to renegotiate rent and gobble up empty sites. As the fabric of urban life shrinks, so, too, do the options for how Londoners choose to come together to celebrate and commiserate, show off or slow down – or simply eat a meal cooked with care and served with kindness. There may still be some puritans who think that food is something that should be free on the NHS and regard restaurants as anything from decadent harbingers of gentrification to incubators of Coronavirus (despite many restaurants going above and beyond what was required of them to keep their customers safe). But it’s not just the people who prepare and serve your food before washing up the dirty dishes who depend on restaurants for their livelihood. Think of the farmers and winemakers, cutlery and crockery suppliers, the manufacturers of kitchen equipment and the launderers of chef whites: an economic ecosystem that is a symbol of civilised life. Or just think of what you’re most looking forward to doing in 2021. Restaurant projects long put on hold should finally see the light of day. Jason Atherton is opening H.O.M.E., a 16-seat space next to Pollen Street Social that the chef calls ‘a purely creative outlet’ expressed through a multi-course set menu. Bow Street Magistrates Court in Covent Garden, meanwhile, is being reinvented as the London outpost of New York’s NoMad hotel, with cooking courtesy of Eleven Madison Park executive chef Ian Coogan and mixologist Leo Robitschek. And two old favourites return to London dining. The Wolseley’s Jeremy King and Chris Corbin are reincarnating legendary fish restaurant Manzi’s – for years the only decent place to eat in Leicester Square – in Soho, while Langan’s Brasserie is currently being refurbished ahead of an autumn relaunch set to return it to its 1980s heyday. What’s more, for the first time in a decade, there will be more members of the hospitality industry than there are jobs; expect a ripple of creativity to spread beyond London’s most desirable postcodes as talented chefs open solo projects in hitherto restaurant-starved neighbourhoods. The gastropub was born in the 1991 recession and the small-plates, no-bookings restaurant came in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. The chefs and restaurateurs who survive the current crisis with their resilience intact and their appetite for hospitality undiminished could make the first half of the 2020s a crucible of culinary innovation. If the past 12 months have taught us anything, it is that restaurants have a ceaseless ability to adapt. When all else failed during the first lockdown, The Abingdon gastropub was the only place in Kensington I could buy a bag of flour (and a pre-made martini). Restaurants have been forced to re-consider what their local customers need and long may this continue. Restaurants have fed care workers while pivoting their consumer offering to food delivery and meal kits. And in return, customers showed how much they valued their local restaurant as the glue of their community. Hackney restaurant Pidgin, for instance, reached its crowdfunding target of £60,000 to see it through the winter, while iconic Soho patisserie Maison Bertaux has passed its target by £15,000. But if 2020 has offered up new possibilities of what a restaurant can be, my hope is that 2021 reminds us what restaurants, uniquely, have always been – somewhere that offers nourishment and nurture in equal measure. We need to nurture them in return. Sign up for the Telegraph Luxury newsletter for your weekly dose of exquisite taste and expert opinion.

Musicians won’t need visas for tours post-Brexit – it’s all a storm in a backstage teacup

A story over the weekend stirred up outrage and alarm in the industry, but the experts say it's business as usual
A story over the weekend stirred up outrage and alarm in the industry, but the experts say it's business as usual Keep calm and carry on rocking. British musicians can still tour Europe. That was the message coming through from agents, promoters and tour managers today. A speculative news story broke over the weekend in the Independent, asserting that the UK rejected an offer of visa-free tours by musicians to EU countries. The paper quoted an “EU source close to the (Brexit) negotiations” as saying “It is usually in our agreements with third countries, that (work) visas are not required for musicians. We tried to include it, but the UK said no.” The Independent suggested that Britain did not want to give European musicians reciprocal rights to tour Britain. Many within the music industry have reacted with outrage and alarm, calling it “a betrayal”, and expressing fears that Brexit might make it all but impossible for British musicians to play in Europe, tying them up in fees and red tape. The Musicians Union (MU), Music Managers Forum (MMF), UK Live Music Group and Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM) have been amongst those calling for “urgent clarity” from the government. Angela Coldrick, CEO of the MMF called it “utter insanity.” Online the reaction from musicians has been, shall we say, even less polite. Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke branded the government “spineless f___s”. A petition demanding visa-free tours for musicians has been signed by over 236,000 people, well over the 100,000 needed for Parliament to consider for debate. A government spokesperson denied the story to the NME, calling it “misleading speculation from anonymous EU sources.” However, I suspect you’d be hard pressed to find many people in the music business (or possibly the rest of the country) willing to take Boris Johnson’s government on their word at the moment. Nevertheless, a quick ring around of experts who actually work in the field suggests the Independent has got its facts in a twist. “The story doesn’t make sense,” according to Paul Fenn, an agent with Asgard Promotions and co-founder of the Entertainment Agent’s Association. “European musicians can still come into the country for 90 days under the new rules, so what is supposed to have been changed?” The French Government confirmed today that UK citizens travelling to Europe to work for up to 90 days would not require visas. It also confirmed that temporary work permits would not be required for “sporting, cultural or scientific events.” Fenn pointed out that under the new post-Brexit agreement, EU countries will treat British people as third country nationals, subject to the same rules that apply to Americans, Canadians and Australians. “Now, I make a living sending American artists around Europe and, with one or two exceptions, it’s easy, we have no problems. On the surface there doesn’t appear to be any changes for British acts going into Europe in 2021.” Asgard’s clients include British artist The Waterboys and Ray Davies and American acts such as Emmylou Harris, Tom Waits and Alison Krauss. “We have been examining the (Brexit agreement document passed into law on December 24th) and asking our partners in Europe what differences they are aware of, and so far we’ve heard nothing. There are no issues.” Neil O’Brien, an agent and promoter for artists including British reggae stars UB40 and American blues rocker Joe Bonamossa was similarly baffled by the story. “It has always been a slightly complicated procedure touring in Europe. Even within the European Union, every country has different rules about taxation, work permits and carnets (customs declarations covering musical instruments). There’s a huge amount of paperwork involved already. I’m not looking forward to it getting more complicated, but because of the pandemic we’ve got time work out what permits might be required. My understanding is that you can still tour for quite a lengthy period visa free. Switzerland is the only country in central Europe that still operates a carnet system, but bands still go there, although it can be a pain in the arse. Where there is money to be made, you make the effort. To be honest, it’s more complicated touring in France. There are local rules wherever you go, so you have to have good local connections, and then things get much simpler.” “The story is just fearmongering,” according to Chris Pleydell, an independent promoter and music business consultant. “For large promoters, it won’t change anything. I know of not one band to ever spend 90 days touring Europe, its absurd. Fourteen days in Europe is about the average. As for small artists, they have always taken a risk. Quite often they are self-promoting, or operating guerrilla touring schedules (without visas). The EU doesn’t have a one size fits all rule for every country, and never has. In my experience, free movement has always come down to who you know. But as long as you have some local assistance, its as easy as pie.” Europe is a huge market for British music, where (as recently as 2015) it is estimated almost a quarter of all albums sold are British. Export revenues from all parts of the UK music industry were £2.7 billion in 2018, according to a Music By Numbers study by UK Music. Meanwhile music tourism into the UK contributed £4.5 billion to the economy, many of those tourists coming to festivals that have been the envy of the world. The understandable concern is that all of this is put at risk by a complicated Brexit deal in a post-pandemic world. “Artists in Europe need the UK if they want to break into the States,” according to Pledyell. “Britain is still a great market for musicians and a stepping stone to the rest of the world. And UK musicians are probably the leading artists that people in Europe want to see, so it’s quid pro quo. The truth is, venues need artists, and they go out of their way to help. I can’t see the industry making that difficult. The only people who might make it difficult are politicians grandstanding on immigration. But we all have bigger issues to address in the age of Covid. This is a storm in a backstage teacup.”

Coby White led seven players in double figures with 21 points as the visiting Chicago Bulls, despite using just nine players, used superior depth to overtake the Portland Trail Blazers 111-108 on Tuesday night to snap a seven-game losing streak in the rivalry. Wendell Carter Jr. broke a late tie with two free throws, Otto Porter Jr. nailed a midrange jumper and White connected from just inside the arc in a six-point Bulls flurry that produced a 106-100 lead with 2:08 to play, and the visitors held on from there to record their first win over the Trail Blazers since Nov. 15, 2016. Garrett Temple and Patrick Williams finished with 14 points apiece, Carter added 13 and Thaddeus Young had 10 for the Bulls, who won for the fourth time in their past five outings in the opener of a four-game Western swing. CJ McCollum paced the Trail Blazers with 26 points and Lillard had 24. Jusuf Nurkic finished with a 12-point, 11-rebound double-double, while Robert Covington totaled 14 points, Gary Trent Jr. 13 and Anthony 12. Brooklyn Nets 120 - Utah Jazz 96 Kyrie Irving scored 29 points in three quarters as Brooklyn started fast and cruised to a wire-to-wire victory over Utah in New York. Irving made his first nine shots, shot 12 of 19 overall, and made five 3-pointers as the Nets shot 55.9 percent. He also added six rebounds, five assists and three steals while playing with four new starters (Taurean Prince, Jeff Green, Bruce Brown and Jarrett Allen). Donovan Mitchell scored 31 points for Utah, which shot 38.9 percent after scoring a season-high 130 points Sunday in San Antonio. Jordan Clarkson added 12 while Rudy Gobert finished with 10 points and 11 rebounds. Besides Mitchell and Gobert, the rest of Utah's starters combined for 22 points while shooting 9 of 24 from the floor. Denver Nuggets 123 - Minnesota Timberwolves 116 Nikola Jokic scored a season-high 35 points and grabbed 15 rebounds, Will Barton scored 20 points, and host Denver beat Minnesota. JaMychal Green had 17 off the bench, Jamal Murray scored 13, Facundo Campazzo added 11 and Gary Harris and Paul Millsap had 10 apiece to help the Nuggets beat Minnesota for the 10th straight time. D'Angelo Russell had 33 points and 11 assists, Juancho Hernangomez had 21 of his 25 points in the first half and Malik Beasley and Anthony Edwards scored 15 each for the Timberwolves. Los Angeles Lakers 94 - Memphis Grizzlies 92 Anthony Davis and LeBron James each scored 26 points to lead visiting Los Angeles past Memphis. James also had 11 rebounds and seven assists, while Davis pulled down 10 rebounds to go with three steals and three blocked shots for the Lakers, who won their fourth straight game. James hit a turnaround jumper to give Los Angeles a five-point lead with 1:03 remaining, and then he blocked Brandon Clarke's shot in the key with 49.4 seconds left as the Lakers prevailed. Jonas Valanciunas had 13 points and 11 rebounds, and Gorgui Dieng and Dillon Brooks also scored 13 points for Memphis. Valanciunas' three-point play at the start of the fourth quarter gave Memphis a 71-67 lead, but both teams continued to trade leads until Davis' 3-pointer moved the Lakers ahead for good 80-79 with 4:22 remaining. San Antonio Spurs 116 - Los Angeles Clippers 113 Patty Mills made a career-best eight 3-pointers and scored 27 points off the bench, and San Antonio snapped a four-game losing streak with the victory over host Los Angeles. Dejounte Murray had 21 points and LaMarcus Aldridge, who returned from a three-game absence after a knee injury, added 14 points and six rebounds for San Antonio. Rudy Gay had 16 points and Devin Vassell scored 12. Kawhi Leonard had 30 points and 10 assists for the Clippers, who played without Paul George (ankle). Nicolas Batum contributed 21 points and Patrick Beverley made six 3-pointers while contributing scored 20 points, eight rebounds and eight assists. Lou Williams chipped in 15 points. --Field Level Media

Es hätte der Abend von Don Jackson sein sollen. Zum 900. Mal stand der Trainer des EHC Red Bull München am Dienstag bei einem Spiel der Deutschen Eishockey Liga (DEL) hinter der Bande. Doch die Augsburger Panther machten dem Rekord-Trainer der DEL einen Strich durch die Rechnung. Trotz einer 2:1-Führung mussten sich die Münchner im Derby noch mit 5:6 (2:1, 1:5, 2:0) geschlagen geben. Der 21-jährige Augsburger Stürmer Samir Kharboutli und ein - aus Münchner Sicht - Horror-Mitteldrittel stahlen Jackson die Show: Fünf Gegentore kassierte der EHC in den zweiten 20 Minuten, vier davon bereitete Kharboutli vor. Es waren seine ersten vier DEL-Scorerpunkte überhaupt. Philip Gogulla bekam es schon in Minute drei mit einem der formstärksten Augsburger zu tun: Markus Keller im Tor der Panther wehrte seinen Schuss aus kurzer Distanz stark ab. Als Keller in Unterzahl nach einem Querpass auf den Ex-Augsburger Trevor Parkes eine Top-Parade zeigte (7.), lag der EHC bereits zurück, da Adam Payerl per Nachschuss einen Abpraller von Münchens Torwart Daniel Fießinger verwertet hatte (5.). Der EHC-Druck wurde in Minute neun belohnt, als Gogulla Keller erstmals überwand. Vier Minuten später hatten die Münchner, bei denen Verteidiger Konrad Abeltshauser nach vierwöchiger Verletzungspause sein Comeback feierte, die Partie gedreht - allerdings mit einem sehr diskussionswürdigen Treffer: Maximilian Daubner beförderte die Scheibe mit dem Schlittschuh über die Torlinie. Die Schiedsrichter gingen zum Videobeweis - und bestätigten das Tor. Ein Drittel später war Daubners Tor kein Thema mehr, da die Münchner innerhalb von viereinhalb Minuten vier Tore kassierten. Dennis Miller (29.), Andrew LeBlanc (30.), Daniel Kristo (31.) und erneut LeBlanc (34.) schossen die Augsburger mit 5:2 in Führung, alle vier Treffer bereitete Kharboutli vor. Als die Münchner in Person von Parkes auf 3:5 verkürzten (39.), dauerte es nur 46 Sekunden, bis die Augsburger mit dem Treffer von TJ Trevelyan (40.) die kleine Münchner Euphorie schon wieder im Keim erstickten. Zu allem Überfluss fiel auch noch EHC-Angreifer Mark Voakes nach einem Zweikampf verletzt aus (32.). Für Fießinger war nach 40 Minuten und sechs Gegentoren Schluss, für ihn hütete im letzten Drittel Daniel Allavena das EHC-Tor. Dessen Vorderleute machten viel Druck und kamen dank Redmonds Überzahltor (43.) und Daryl Boyles Treffer (60.) noch auf 5:6 ran. Diese Tore reichten aber nicht, um die dritte Münchner Niederlage in den vergangenen vier Partien zu verhindern.

Jan 6 (Reuters) - Ons Jabeur made huge gains to climb to career-best rankings last year, but the Tunisian trailblazer is fed up with only reaching quarter-finals and wants to win titles in 2021 to secure a place in the top 10 of women's tennis. Jabeur became the first Arab woman to reach a Grand Slam quarter-final at last year's Australian Open to start her march up the rankings and she has not looked back since. The 26-year-old also reached the fourth round at Roland Garros and four other quarter-finals during a breakthrough season that catapulted her to a career-best ranking of 31. "The goal for this year, I want to go for titles, enough of quarter-finals," Jabeur told reporters on the eve of the WTA's season-opening event in Abu Dhabi. "I want to be in the top 10. I know I have the level, I can be in this ranking. For me, I set up my goals like this, and I know that I can achieve them. I know that I've put in the hard work to have these titles, to be able to win more and more." It was time to build on the gains made during the pandemic-hit season and Jabeur was confident she can put her 2020 experience to good use in the new season. "I feel like I am more ready, players know me more, they know what I'm capable of, I know what I'm capable of, which will help me even more to achieve what I want," Jabeur said. "I'm going to use the experience I gained from 2020 to really have a great season in 2021." Jabeur feels she has had a strong off-season at the end of 2020 and it was different from the previous year. "I feel like I'm a different player, I feel like I'm practising much harder than before, I'm improving as a player," she added. "I've noticed the amount of work on the court with fitness was much more than last year ... I feel much better and fit on the court." (Reporting by Sudipto Ganguly in Mumbai Editing by David Goodman)

Steve Jones's Sex Pistols life is stranger and filthier than fiction – can Danny Boyle do it justice?

Danny Boyle will direct a TV biopic about the Sex Pistols starring Maisie Williams, spanning substance abuse, sex addiction and kleptomania
Danny Boyle will direct a TV biopic about the Sex Pistols starring Maisie Williams, spanning substance abuse, sex addiction and kleptomania Anarchy, filth and fury will likely be exploding into living rooms around the world after it was announced this afternoon that Trainspotting filmmaker Danny Boyle will direct a six-part TV biopic about punk rockers the Sex Pistols. Pistol will be based on guitarist Steve Jones’s no-holds-barred 2016 autobiography Lonely Boy: Tales from a Sex Pistol. Production will start in March with a cast including Game of Thrones actress Maisie Williams. The film will focus on Jones’s early years and how the punk subculture caused both moral outrage and a fashion revolution in the buttoned-up London of the mid-1970s. “Imagine breaking into the world of The Crown and Downton Abbey with your mates and screaming your songs and your fury at all they represent,” Boyle said. “This is the moment that British society and culture changed forever. It is the detonation point for British high-street culture.” Pistol will star a host of young up-and-coming actors in the lead roles. Toby Wallace, who starred in last year’s coming-of-age film Babyteeth, will play Jones, 1917’s Anson Boon will portray singer John Lydon, while doomed bassist Sid Vicious will be played by Enola Holmes actor Louis Partridge. Fabien Frankel, who can currently be seen as naive French traveller Dominique Renelleau in BBC’s The Serpent, will play original bassist Glen Matlock, while Williams will play punk icon and early Pistols associate Jordan. It is unknown who’ll star as Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood, the boutique owners who helped steer the band to success. Pistol will be made by FX Productions, the company behind A Teacher. No release date has been given and it is unclear which channel or platform the show will run on, although FX has an ongoing relationship with the BBC. In releasing a biopic series, the seminal punk band are following a well-trodden path. After the box office success of Queen and Elton John biopics, we’ll soon see films about Aretha Franklin, Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan and Madonna. The Pistols already have form when it comes to being immortalised on screen. Pistol comes four decades after the band released their own film, the iffy The Great Rock ‘n’ Roll Swindle, and 35 years after Gary Oldman starred as Vicious in Alex Cox’s Sid and Nancy. The band’s story was also recounted in documentary form two decades ago in Julien Temple’s acclaimed The Filth and the Fury. But if Lonely Boy’s source material is anything to go by, the new film will be far from the sanitised portrayal of life in a band that music fans saw in Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. Jones’s book is a gritty and gob-flecked tome that deals with issues of sexual abuse, substance abuse, sex addiction and kleptomania. As Jones memorably puts it in his book, he’d have sex with anything that moved and steal anything that didn’t (including nicking David Bowie’s equipment from Hammersmith Odeon at the Ziggy Stardust farewell shows). The heart of Jones’s book – where it is at its most vivid and, at places, disturbing – lies in his account of growing up in post-war London. And this is where Pistol is likely to diverge from standard rock biopics. It will be the band’s origin story – punk’s own Batman Begins. Boyle said that Jones’s backstory is key to the Pistols’ narrative. “At its centre was a young charming illiterate kleptomaniac – a hero for the times – Steve Jones, who became in his own words the 94thgreatest guitarist of all time. This is how he got there,” the Oscar-winning director said. Boyle excels at portraying cities’ gritty underbellies. Just look at the Edinburgh of Trainspotting or the post-apocalyptic London of 28 Days Later. The London that Jones describes in Lonely Boy is a cold and joyless place, strewn with debris, building sites and corrugated iron fences that shred the skin of people trying to scale them. As a youth Jones ran wild in Hammersmith and Battersea, tearing around in stolen mopeds and nicking wallets from the changing rooms of private school St Pauls. He’d skip school, break into the hulking Battersea Power Station to climb its chimneys, and was arrested 13 times. London was grey and dull. It took punk to jolt it from its languid stupor. Jones’s early years were also personally dark. He writes about being “fiddled with” by his stepfather aged 10 in a Shepherd's Bush flat while his mother was in hospital having a miscarriage. The incident, as Jones discovered in therapy decades later, led to his addictions to sex (both having it and becoming a “peeping Tom” watching other people have it) and his kleptomania. The abuse also led him to seek escape in music. Indeed, it was music, Jones says, that saved him from “getting swept away by a tide of f_____-up s___”. The passing of time has diluted punk’s primal howl. Its snotty, violent rage is a distant memory. The scene’s once-shocking DIY aesthetic of safety pins, ripped clothes and spiky hair became a clichéd fancy dress staple years ago, while Jamie Reid’s cover art for the Pistols’ God Save The Queen – featuring a defaced Queen Elizabeth II – can now be found on postcard racks in London tourist hotspots alongside snaps of Beefeaters and Big Ben. So it’s easy to forget the very real societal panic caused when Lydon (stage name Johnny Rotten), Jones, drummer Paul Cook and Matlock (who was replaced on bass by Vicious in 1977) burst onto the scene. As the NME journalist Neil Spencer said in the magazine’s first review of the band in February 1976, they were “a quartet of spiky teenage misfits from the wrong end of various London roads” (although Jones would claim he was the true outsider: the others came from comfortable homes). As Jones memorably told Spencer that night, “Actually we’re not into music. We’re into chaos.” This much is true. Chaos reigned. But what Lonely Boy describes brilliantly – and something that Pistol writers Craig Pearce and Frank Cottrell-Boyce, who wrote the script for Boyle’s opening ceremony at the 2012 Olympics, will hopefully capture in their treatment – is how the story of punk was also more nuanced than all this. For example, Jones was a massive Rod Stewart and Roxy Music fan. And before becoming a punk he dipped his toes in different youth scenes: he loved Motown, dabbled with the Teddy Boy crowd and for a while was even into progressive rock, the antithesis of punk. As the punk scene exploded, Jones started resenting its anti-success ethos: coming from nothing, he wanted to enjoy the trappings of what he’d achieved. Meanwhile the Pistols’ most infamous episode, when they swore live on TV during a December 1976 interview with Bill Grundy, is often seen as punk’s crowning glory. But Jones hated it. He describes it as the beginning of the end for the band. Before Grundy, it was all about the music. After Grundy, it was all about the media. Tours were cancelled and the band entered a tailspin. You can sense the regret and sense of ‘What if..?’ in Lonely Boy. Pistol’s portrayal of McLaren and Westwood will be fascinating. As the band’s manager, McLaren is often characterised as a sly svengali, out for what he could get. But Jones sees it differently. As a working class lad, he loved hanging out in McLaren and Westwood King’s Road boutique Let It Rock (which eventually changed its name to Sex). The pair opened his eyes to a different world – a London full of “avant-garde art-world” people, toffs and health food. “Malcolm and Vivienne were like a bright light in the darkness I’d come from,” Jones writes. He even lived with them in Clapham for a while when he was homeless. Trainspotting’s Kevin McKidd and Jonny Lee Miller (Tommy and Sick Boy respectively) both look uncannily like McLaren, so Boyle could have some fun with the casting there. Lonely Boy is stuffed with memorable characters. There is Virgin Records’ Richard Branson (“catweazle”), who signed the Pistols after both EMI and A&M dropped them. Jones’s early girlfriend Chrissie Hynde features strongly, and there are stories involving everyone from Midge Ure (who McLaren wanted to be the band’s singer at one point) and Lemmy from Motörhead, from whom Jones bought speed. There is also a story about an X-rated party trick by actor John Bindon, who reportedly had a relationship with Princess Margaret. Jones describes in great detail swiping gear from Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust farewell shows in the summer of 1973. He claims the reason the sound was so bad in the concert film of Ziggy’s last show was because he’d swiped the microphones the night before. Ziggy wasn’t the only one who (nearly) didn’t play guitar. Jones nicked a coat from Ronnie Wood, a gold disc from Bryan Ferry, and 10cc’s guitars, among a vast haul of other stuff including most of the Pistols’ early on-stage equipment. As a youngster, a picture of Jones appeared in The Sun after he was persuaded to demonstrate a toy in Selfridges. The reason he looked so uncomfortable was because he’d been there shoplifting and had stolen toys hidden under his clothes. There was, of course, no happy ending to the Pistols story. The band lasted for just over two years and released just one proper studio album. A year after their break-up, Vicious died of a heroin overdose in New York. “The Sex Pistols were born to crash and burn, and that’s exactly what we did,” Jones writes in his book. Despite the temptation, Boyle needs to make sure we don’t like the characters too much. The band could be nasty and puerile. In June 1976, Vicious attacked a journalist with a rusty bike chain in Oxford Street’s 100 Club. And he once almost slit the throat of an innocent photographer on a tour bus because he coveted his biker boots. Pistol promises to be great if it steers away from sugar-coating and pastiche. It needs to convey Jones’s snottily subversive wit but also tell the band’s story in all its grotty, dark glory. It should, at least at times, shock and disturb as much as its subjects’ music did over 40 years ago. Lydon once said that the Pistols were “against bureaucracy, hypocrisy and anything ending in ‘y’”. Let’s hope this includes hagiography too.

Borough Market becomes first outdoor space in UK to legally enforce face masks

From Monday, customers and vendors at the food and drink market will face a £50 fine if they do not wear a face covering
From Monday, customers and vendors at the food and drink market will face a £50 fine if they do not wear a face covering Borough Market in London has become the first outdoor space in the UK to legally enforce the wearing of face masks. From Monday, customers and vendors at the food and drink market will face a £50 fine if they do not wear a face covering in and around the stalls. The rule can be enforced thanks to the market's own set of bylaws passed in Parliament, which date back to before the Victorian era and have been updated to reflect the pandemic. Kate Howell, director of development at the central London venue, said: "I think we just have to be responsible." Ms Howell said: "We're open as an essential retailer but we want to keep it safe for everybody." Market organisers have encouraged mask-wearing and distancing throughout the pandemic, but with rising infection rates in the capital and the third national lockdown in England, they felt they had to go further. Ms Howell explained: "Whilst we've done everything we can to politely encourage people to wear masks and keep to social distancing and keep the space safe, now is the time to really show our intent." She went on: "We've got to a stage where we feel as responsible landlords that, actually given we do have these bylaws, in our reckoning that we're able to say, 'We're going to make this mandatory'." Pre-lockdown, the market welcomed thousands of visitors each day, and Ms Howell joined other industry voices in describing the hospitality sector as "really hard hit by this whole period". "It's perhaps been the less than clear messaging at times that has had a huge impact on trade," she added. Her comments come after the Government's top medic suggested there could be times when there is "logic" for wearing a mask outdoors. England's chief medical officer Professor Chris Whitty told BBC Radio 4 there is a "risk" of Covid-19 in "crowded" outdoor environments such as a "queue". On the Today programme, he said: "If people for example are crowded together in a queue outdoors, if they're really huddled together round a market stall or something - that is a risk with this virus - and in that situation, there might be some logic to people thinking about wearing masks."

Vorjahresfinalist Bayer Leverkusen hat ein wichtiges Lebenszeichen gesendet und zudem seine Titelambitionen im DFB-Pokal eindrucksvoll untermauert. Im Zweitrunden-Nachholspiel bezwang die Mannschaft von Trainer Peter Bosz die "Pokalspezialisten" von Eintracht Frankfurt in einem lange spannenden und intensiven Kampf mit 4:1 (1:1) und zog ins Achtelfinale ein. Bayer - zuletzt in der Liga eher unglücklich - revanchierte sich für die 1:2-Niederlage vor zehn Tagen bei den Hessen in der Bundesliga und feierte nach drei sieglosen Partien wieder einen Erfolg. Amin Younes (6.) brachte die Eintracht, die in den vergangenen vier Spielzeiten dreimal das Halbfinale erreicht und 2018 gegen Rekordsieger Bayern München überraschend den Pokalsieg gefeiert hatte, nach einer sehenswerten Kombination in Führung. Bayer-Torjäger Lucas Alario (27.) glich per Handelfmeter aus. Nach der Pause drehte Edmond Tapsoba (49.) mit seinem ersten Pflichtspieltor im Bayer-Dress die Partie. Moussa Diaby (67. und 87.) erhöhte noch. Nationalspieler Tah (73.) sah wegen einer Notbremse die Rote Karte. Die Partie in der BayArena riss von Beginn an mit. Nach dem ersten schnellen Angriff musste der Ex-Frankfurter Lukas Hradecky direkt hinter sich greifen. In der Folge verpassten Hinteregger (14.), Younes und Kamada (22.), auf eine zu diesem Zeitpunkt verdiente Zwei-Tore-Führung zu erhöhen. Erst nach dem Ausgleich setzte sich Bayer immer besser in Szene. Vor dem Spiel sorgte eine Personalie bei den Gästen für Aufsehen. Eintracht-Sportvorstand Fredi Bobic bestätigte vor dem Anpfiff bei Sky die Rückkehr von Stürmer Luka Jovic. Der 23-jährige Serbe soll bis zum Saisonende vom spanischen Rekordmeister Real Madrid ausgeliehen werden, wo er nicht oft spielt, vorbehaltlich einer medizinischen Untersuchung.

Rojo could seal a move away from Old Trafford in the transfer window with two Premier League clubs and four others reportedly keen
Rojo could seal a move away from Old Trafford in the transfer window with two Premier League clubs and four others reportedly keen Manchester United's forgotten man Marcos Rojo is being targeted by six clubs as he closes in on a January transfer window exit. Rojo joined the Red Devils for £18million from Sporting Lisbon in 2014, but the 30-year-old has struggled for game time. He spent the second half of last season on loan at Estudiantes in his native Argentina, but has not played at all since returning to Old Trafford in the summer and is currently out with a calf injury. Rojo could return to training at some point but doesn't appear to have a future at United under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. However, La Liga club Elche could be about to hand him a lifeline, according to Informacion - although they could face competition from two Premier League outfits. The publication claims Rojo is high on a list of defensive targets for the Spanish outfit because of his ability to play at either centre-back or left-back. Elche are currently third from bottom of La Liga and are desperate to retain their status in Spain's top flight. But they are just one of six clubs interested in Rojo, according to reports. The same publication claims Sheffield United and Newcastle United are weighing up potential January moves for Rojo. The Blades are rock-bottom of the Premier League with just two points from 17 games, while Newcastle are looking to pull well clear of the relegation zone. Informacion reports that two other unnamed Spanish clubs are keen on Rojo, while Boca Juniors in his homeland are also in talks, according to Sport Witness. United boss Solskjaer has been tipped to sign a new centre-half this month with many observers pointing out the need for a top-class partner for Harry Maguire. The recent form of Eric Bailly has given Red Devils fans cause for optimism, although concerns remain over the Ivory Coast international's injury record.

Für Dramatik und tragisches Potenzial ist gesorgt: Shakespeare-Spezialist Kenneth Branagh wird in einer TV-Serie über die Coronakrise Großbritanniens umstrittenen Premierminister Boris Johnson verkörpern. Die ersten Monate nach dem Ausbruch des Covid-19-Virus in Großbritannien werden Thema einer Mini-Serie, die der mit politischen und zeitgeschichtlichen Themen vertraute Regisseur Michael Winterbottom für eine Ausstrahlung beim Pay- und Streamingsender Sky drehen wird. Titel des Fünfteilers, der im Herbst 2022 gezeigt werden soll: »This Sceptred Isle«, ein Zitat von William Shakespeare aus dessen Theaterstück »Richard II.«, gemeint ist mit dieser hoheitlichen Insel selbstverständlich England. Das Königreich gehört zu den von der Pandemie am schlimmsten betroffenen Ländern weltweit und leidet momentan unter ungebrochen hohen Infektionszahlen und der Überlastung des Gesundheitssystems. Viele Briten machen ihre Regierung für die tragische Entwicklung verantwortlich. Rund 96.000 Menschen sind dort bisher an oder mit dem Virus gestorben. Passend zu dieser Dramatik steht nun auch fest, wer mit Premierminister Boris Johnsons eine Schlüsselfigur der Ereignisse verkörpern wird: Laut US-Branchenblatt »Variety« wird der Shakespeare-Spezialist Kenneth Branagh, 60, den schwierigen Part übernehmen. Der in Nordirland geborene Schauspieler und Filmemacher, drehte zahlreiche Shakespeare-Adaptionen, darunter »Henry V.« (1989), »Viel Lärm um nichts« (1993) und »Hamlet« (1996), in denen er zum großen Teil auch selbst Hauptrollen übernahm. Branagh erhielt in seiner bisherigen Karriere je fünf Nominierungen für einen Oscar und einen Golden Globe, er gewann zwei Emmys und gilt als einer der profiliertesten Darsteller seiner Generation. Zuletzt war Branagh in Christopher Nolans Science-Fiction-Thriller »Tenet« zu sehen, zurzeit spielt er erneut Agatha Christies genialischen Detektiv Hercule Poirot in eine voraussichtlich im Herbst startenden Neuverfilmung von »Tod auf dem Nil«, bei der er auch Regie führt. Wahre Geschichten von Pflegekräften und Politikern Der britische Regisseur Michael Winterbottom, 59, widmet sich seit fast drei Jahrzehnten immer wieder aktuellen politischen und gesellschaftlichen Themen in seinen sowohl fiktionalen als auch dokumentarischen Arbeiten für Kino und Fernsehen. Er drehte unter anderem »Welcome to Sarajevo« über den Bürgerkrieg im ehemaligen Jugoslawien und »Road to Guantanamo« über das Terroristen-Gefängnis der US-Regierung auf Kuba, aber auch leichtere Stoffe wie »24 Hour Party People« über die Musikszene Manchesters oder die launige, in England populäre Reality-Format »The Trip« mit Steve Coogan. »An die erste Welle der Covid-19-Pandemie wird man sich für immer erinnern«, sagte Winterbottom laut »Variety« in einem Statement zu dem neuen Projekt, das er mit seiner eigenen Firma koproduziert, »eine Zeit, in der das Land zusammenkam, um einen unsichtbaren Feind zu bekämpfen. Eine Zeit, in der sich mehr Menschen denn je über die Wichtigkeit von Gemeinschaft bewusst wurden«. Die Serie werde wahre Geschichten zu einem Panorama verknüpfen, von den Entscheidungen Boris Johnsons in Londons Downing Street Nummer 10 bis hin zum Krankenhauspersonal an den zahlreichen Fronten im ganzen Land, so Winterbottom, »eine Chronik der Bemühungen von Wissenschaftlern, Ärzten, Pflegekräften und Politikern, uns vor dem Virus zu beschützen«.

'Nothing suspicious' as cockpit recording of conversations with air traffic control point to routine exchanges
'Nothing suspicious' as cockpit recording of conversations with air traffic control point to routine exchanges The crew of the Indonesian passenger jet that crashed off Jakarta at the weekend with 62 people aboard did not declare an emergency or report technical problems before it suddenly plunged into the sea, an investigator said Monday. Authorities have so far been unable to explain why the 26-year-old plane crashed just four minutes after takeoff, but say they've pinpointed the location of the black boxes. A recording of conversations with air traffic control pointed to routine exchanges, and there was no communication as the Sriwijaya Air Boeing 737-500 plunged about 10,000 feet (3,000 metres) in less than a minute before slamming into the Java Sea, said National Transportation Safety Committee investigator Nurcahyo Utomo. "It's like a normal conversation and nothing suspicious," he told AFP. "There's no talk of an emergency or something like that." The preliminary data suggested it was "most likely" the plane was intact when it hit the water Saturday, he added. "But we don't know at this stage" what caused the crash, Utomo said. There were 62 Indonesian passengers and crew aboard the half-full flight, including 10 children. Indonesia identified a victim from the flight SY182 on Monday. Divers scoured the sea bed, retrieving human remains, personal possessions and pieces of plane wreckage until fading light ended the search, emergency officials said. Okky Bisma, a flight attendant on the plane, was identified by his fingerprints, a police official told reporters The jet's captain, Afwan - a 54-year-old father of three who like many Indonesians goes by one name - was a former air force pilot with decades of flying under his belt, according to local media. Some of the 2,600 personnel working in the recovery effort involving dozens of boats and helicopters are hauling body parts, twisted piece of wreckage and passengers' clothing from shallow waters about 23 metres (75 feet) deep. Body bags filled with human remains were being taken to a police morgue where investigators hope to identify victims by matching fingerprints or DNA from their remains to living relatives. Rapin Akbar, who gave a blood sample to the hospital, had five relatives on board including an older sister, a nephew and his wife and their seven-month-old baby. They were flying back to Pontianak, the city on Indonesia's section of Borneo island, about 90 minutes away. "(My nephew) had planned to go back to Pontianak on Sunday but changed his mind and decided to fly on Saturday instead," Akbar said. "He called me to say the flight was delayed and sent me a picture of their baby. It was (their) first." Late Monday, authorities identified flight attendant Okky Bisma, 29, as the first confirmed victim after matching fingerprints from a retrieved hand to those in a government identity database. Divers searched waters off Jakarta for black boxes - cockpit voice and flight data recorders - that could be crucial to help explain why the plane went down. Despite the name, black boxes are usually bright orange with reflective stripes, and all commercial planes are obliged to have them on board. Built to survive at vast depths and in extreme heat, they are fitted with a beacon which can emit a signal for a month. The devices record information about the speed, altitude and direction of the plane as well as flight crew conversations. Black box data help explain nearly 90 per cent of all crashes, according to aviation experts. The investigation into Saturday's crash is likely to take months. Aviation analysts said flight-tracking data showed the plane sharply deviated from its intended course before it went into a steep dive, with bad weather, pilot error and mechanical malfunction among the potential factors. "Something quite dramatic has happened after takeoff," said Stephen Wright, professor of aircraft systems at Finland's Tampere University. "The airspeed is far too low. The aircraft didn't accelerate up to the correct speeds for continuous flight." - Spotty safety record - Sriwijaya Air, which flies to destinations in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, has said little about the plane, which was previously flown by US-based Continental Airlines and United Airlines. The Indonesian carrier has not recorded a fatal crash since it started operations in 2003. But the nation's fast-growing aviation sector has long been plagued by safety concerns, and its airlines were once banned from entering US and European airspace. In October 2018, 189 people were killed when a Lion Air Boeing 737 MAX jet crashed near Jakarta. That accident - and another in Ethiopia - saw Boeing hit with $2.5 billion in fines over claims it defrauded regulators overseeing the 737 MAX model, which was grounded worldwide following the accidents. The 737 model that went down Saturday was first produced decades ago and was not a MAX variant. In 2014, an AirAsia plane headed from Surabaya to Singapore crashed with the loss of 162 lives. A year later more than 140 people, including scores on the ground, were killed when a military plane crashed shortly after take-off in Medan on Sumatra island.

Manchester United hat in der Premier League Fußball-Meister FC Liverpool von der Tabellenspitze verdrängt. Das Team von Trainer Ole Gunnar Solskjaer gewann am späten Dienstagabend sein Nachholspiel vom 1. Spieltag beim FC Burnley mit 1:0 (0:0). Der abwanderungswillige Paul Pogba erzielte den entscheidenden Treffer in der 71. Minute und sorgte damit dafür, dass der neue Spitzenreiter als einziges Team in dieser Saison auswärts ungeschlagen bleibt. Manchester United liegt nun drei Punkte vor Liverpool und vier Zähler vor dem Tabellendritten Leicester City. Der FC Everton festigte durch einen 2:1 (1:1)-Erfolg bei den Wolverhampton Wanderers den vierten Platz. Sheffield United kam mit dem 1:0 (0:0) gegen Newcastle United zu seinem ersten Saisonsieg. Atletico baut Tabellenführung aus Sechs Tage nach dem blamablen K.o. im spanischen Fußball-Pokal beim Drittligisten Cornella hat Atletico Madrid seine Tabellenführung in der spanischen La Liga ausgebaut. Der zehnmalige Meister setzte sich in einer Nachholpartie vom ersten Spieltag gegen Europa-League-Gewinner FC Sevilla mit 2:0 (1:0) durch. Für den sechsten Ligasieg in Folge sorgten der Argentinier Angel Correa (17.) und Saul Niguez (76.). Nach dem 13. Saisonsieg hat die Mannschaft von Trainer Diego Simeone mit 41 Punkten vier Zähler Vorsprung vor dem Stadtrivalen und Titelverteidiger Real Madrid (37) und zudem noch zwei Spiele weniger ausgetragen. Als Dritter folgt bereits abgeschlagen der FC Barcelona mit 34 Punkten.

Informa forecasts profit plunge as pandemic crushes events industry

Jan 6 (Reuters) - Events group Informa Plc on Wednesday forecast a more than 70% plunge in 2020 profit as the industry was ravaged by coronavirus-driven restrictions and halts in physical exhibitions worldwide. Hundreds of global events organised by Informa were cancelled or postponed last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, denting a major chunk of revenue for the firm behind shows including China Beauty Expo, Monaco Yacht Show, World of Concrete and Arab Health. Mainland China resumed events since June last year, but several major markets including the United States and Europe remained virtually shut and Britain imposed another national lockdown to stem the spread of a new coronavirus variant. The world's largest exhibitions group said it ran its first physical events in the last few months of 2020 in Thailand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Egypt and Japan. Informa added that 90% of physical events outside Mainland China are now scheduled to run from June. "(2021) is likely to be a year of return for physical events, rather than full rebound and recovery," Informa said in a statement. To buffer the impact on its finances, Informa last year laid off staff, closed offices, cancelled dividends, raised 1 billion pounds in equity and restructured its debt. The company expects adjusted operating profit in the range of 250 million pounds ($341.13 million) to 270 million pounds for the year ended Dec. 31, 2020. That compares with a profit of 933.1 million pounds in 2019. Separately, the company on Tuesday named John Rishton to succeed Derek Mapp as chairman.

Italy's 'Black Widow' speaks candidly of hiring hit man to murder her Gucci heir husband

Patrizia Reggiani says in new documentary that she quite enjoyed her 17 years in prison
Patrizia Reggiani says in new documentary that she quite enjoyed her 17 years in prison An Italian socialite nicknamed “the Black Widow” has revealed that she was so desperate to murder her husband, an heir to the Gucci fashion empire, that she “went around asking everyone if they could do it, even the local grocer.” Patrizia Reggiani is out of prison, having served 17 years for hiring a hitman to shoot dead her husband, Maurizio Gucci, on the steps of his office in Milan in 1995. She was furious that after 13 years of marriage he had abandoned her for another woman, leaving her to bring up their two young daughters. She was also angry over his management of the $170 million fortune he had accrued after selling the family business in 1993 to an investment group. The former socialite, who kept a pet ferret in prison, has given a candid interview about ordering her husband’s murder and her life behind bars in San Vittore prison in Milan, which she ironically nicknamed “Victor's Residence”. “I was furious with Maurizio. I went around asking everyone, even the local grocer, is there someone who has the courage to murder my husband?” the 72-year-old said in a documentary that was released on Monday. “I can’t aim a gun very well – I couldn’t have done it myself.” With the help of a friend who was a psychic and fortune-teller, she eventually found someone willing to carry out the murder. The hitman, Benedetto Ceraulo, was a debt-ridden pizzeria owner. He drew up in a green Renault Clio to the office block where Mr Gucci worked and shot him four times. He was eventually caught, convicted and sentenced to life in prison. It took police two years to figure out who had ordered the killing. "I didn't think they'd catch me," Ms Reggiani, wearing an elegant pink trouser suit, told the Discovery documentary. After a trial that captivated Italy, she was found guilty of commissioning the hit and sentenced to 26 years in prison. The trial heard that on the day her ex-husband was gunned down, she wrote in her diary the word – paradeisos, Greek for paradise. Ms Reggiani said in the documentary that she had quite enjoyed incarceration. “I was absolutely fine in prison,” she said. “For me they were years of peace. I slept, I worked in the garden.” A decade ago, she was offered the chance of day release on the condition that she would accept menial work. She refused. “I've never worked in my life and I'm certainly not going to start now,” she told a court in Milan. That attitude echoed one of her more famous quotes: “I would rather weep in a Rolls-Royce than be happy on a bicycle.” In the end, her sentence was cut short for good behaviour and she was released in 2017. She lives in Milan with a pet parrot and can sometimes be seen walking around the city with the blue and yellow macaw on her shoulder. Her daughters, now grown-up, reportedly want nothing to do with her.

Am Sturm auf das US-Kapitol in Washington war offenbar auch ein Schwimm-Olympiasieger beteiligt. Videoaufnahmen des Angriffs militanter Anhänger des Noch-Präsidenten Donald Trump legen nahe, dass der Amerikaner Klete Keller Teil des wütenden Mobs war. Laut New York Times und dem Portal SwimSwam wurde Keller von früheren Teammitgliedern und Trainern identifiziert. Der 38-Jährige gewann 2004 und 2008 in der 4x200-m-Freistilstaffel mit dem Rekordolympiasieger Michael Phelps die Goldmedaille, zudem holte er 2000 und 2004 Bronze über 400 m. Auf dem Videomaterial ist ein großer Mann zu sehen, der einen Trainingsanzug des US-Olympiateams trägt und sehr große Ähnlichkeit mit dem Schwimmer hat. Ob er an Gewalttätigkeiten beteiligt war, geht aus dem Bildern nicht hervor. Am vergangenen Mittwoch hatten wütende Unterstützer des abgewählten Trump das Kapitol in der US-Hauptstadt gestürmt, fünf Menschen kamen bei den Krawallen ums Leben.

Der erste Schultag nach den Ferien hat zu mächtig Frust bei Schülern, Lehrern und Eltern geführt: Nicht erreichbare Lernplattformen, versagende Technik. Ein Erfahrungsbericht.
Der erste Schultag nach den Ferien hat zu mächtig Frust bei Schülern, Lehrern und Eltern geführt: Nicht erreichbare Lernplattformen, versagende Technik. Ein Erfahrungsbericht. "Papaaaaa, kommst du mal? Ich will die Lernpläne ausdrucken, aber ich weiß nicht wie." Holly ist zehn und braucht Hilfe. Heute ist der erste Schultag nach den Weihnachtsferien, und für die Schülerinnen und Schüler heißt das: Distanzlernen. Das Kinderzimmer wird zum Klassenzimmer, statt zur Tafel schaut man in den Bildschirm. In NRW gibt es circa 2,5 Millionen Schüler. Zwei davon, Holly und ihr drei Jahre älterer Bruder Rio, sitzen bei mir zu Hause, immer nur einen Ruf entfernt. Und der ertönt oft. Mal ist die Lernplattform "Moodle" nicht erreichbar, auf der wichtige Arbeitsblätter und Anleitungen hinterlegt sind. Mal ist der Link für das Zoom-Meeting verloren gegangen. Technische Probleme, überlastete Server Ich soll einen Artikel darüber schreiben, wie die Schüler in NRW mit technischen Problemen kämpfen. Das klappt aber nur begrenzt, weil meine Kinder - genau! - mit technischen Problemen kämpfen. Mitten in der virtuellen Redaktionskonferenz plingt mein Handy. Rio fordert mehr Bildschirmzeit für die "Houseparty"-App an. Dort will er mit seinem Freund Matheaufgaben machen. Abgelenkt und gestresst gebe ich aus Versehen die falsche PIN ein. Anfrage abgelehnt. Zehn Sekunden später pingt es wieder. Kurz danach klopft Holly bei mir im Arbeitszimmer an. Sie will kurz zur Schule gehen und braucht noch das Formular, mit dem sie sich dort ein iPad ausleihen kann. Aber wo finde ich das nochmal? In einer der vielen, vielen Mails, die in den letzten Tagen hier ankamen, vom Schulleiter, von den Klassenlehrerinnen, von den Pflegschaftsvorsitzenden? Nein, auf der Homepage der Schule. Die ist gerade zum Glück erreichbar. Immerhin. "Vergiss deine Maske nicht!", rufe ich Holly hinterher. Und merke dann, dass ich die dringende Mail mit der Interviewanfrage an den Bildungsexperten zwar verfasst, aber nicht abgeschickt habe. Störungen bei Lernplattform "Moodle" So wie uns ging es heute Morgen vielen Kindern und ihren Eltern. Das Portal "Iserv"? Nicht erreichbar. "Padlet"? Hat offenbar überlastete Server. Der Chat auf der Schul-App "KIKS", wo man zur Not die Lehrer anschreiben kann? Bricht immer wieder zusammen. Und nicht nur wir fluchen über "Moodle". Laut einer Störungskarte des Online-Magazin "Netzwelt" hat die weitverbreitete Lernplattform in ganz Deutschland Probleme. Am schlimmsten hat es demnach Baden-Württemberg und den Großraum Rhein-Ruhr erwischt. "Moodle" ist sogar in den deutschlandweiten Twitter-Trends, genauso wie "Lehrer" und "Homeschooling". Schulministerin ist nichts von Problemen bekannt

Trotz einer klaren Führung bis zur 85. Minute ging die SpVgg Unterhaching am Dienstagabend im Nachholspiel gegen den SC Verl leer aus: Drei Gegentore in vier Minuten bescherten der Mannschaft von Arie van Lent eine deprimierende 3:4 (1:1)-Niederlage. "Grob fahrlässig" nannte der Trainer die Leistung seiner Mannschaft und ärgerte sich anschließend darüber, dass seine Mannschaft eine Chance zum 4:1 liegen gelassen hatte. Die Gäste aus der Nähe von Bielefeld hatten auch den besseren Start erwischt: Sascha Korb prüfte den Hachinger Keeper Steve Kroll, der auch diesmal wieder im Tor stand für den angeschlagenen Nico Mantl (Oberschenkelzerrung). Verls Stürmer Kasim Rabihic, in der vergangenen Saison noch für Türkgücü München aktiv, verpasste mit einem verdeckten Flachschuss die Führung knapp (28.). Danach zeigten die Hachinger wieder einmal bei Standardsituationen ihre Gefährlichkeit: Zunächst wurde ein Kopfball von Kapitän Markus Schwabl auf der Linie geklärt, beim nächsten Eckball legte aber in Lasse Jürgensen ein Verler Abwehrspieler den Ball zur Hachinger Führung ins Netz (41.). Die Elf von Trainer Arie van Lent konnte allerdings nicht mit einer Führung in die Kabine gehen: Nach einem Freistoß von der rechten Seite traf Lars Ritzka vor dem herausspringenden Kroll unbedrängt per Kopf ins Netz (45.). Verl blieb gefährlich, zunächst aber scheinbar vergeblich: Nach Zuspiel von Schwabl brachte Patrick Hasenhüttl Haching erneut in Führung (58.), nach einem erneuten Konter besorgte der eingewechselte Moritz Heinrich (75.) das 3:1. Dann aber traf Rabihic zum Anschluss (85.), Schwabl erzielte ein slapstickhaftes Eigentor (88.), und Mann des Abends wurde Berkan Taz mit seinem wuchtigen Schuss zum Siegtor für Verl (90.).

Manchester United are set to lock horns with Manchester City in the Carabao Cup semi-finals on Wednesday night, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer bidding to reach his first cup final as Red Devils manager
Manchester United are set to lock horns with Manchester City in the Carabao Cup semi-finals on Wednesday night, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer bidding to reach his first cup final as Red Devils manager Manchester United will aim to reach their first cup final under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer when they take on Manchester City in the semi-final of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night. Solskjaer has turned United’s form around over the last month after facing increased scrutiny when they crashed out of the Champions League group stages at the start of December. A 10-game unbeaten run in the Premier League has propelled them to the top of the table, while their 2-0 victory away at Everton in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals ensured they are now one win away from reaching the Wembley showpiece. And it is none other than neighbours City who stand in their way of that final, with a crucial last-four encounter to come at Old Trafford on Wednesday. United will be without Edinson Cavani, who is serving the second of his three-game suspension for an offensive post on social media, while Victor Lindelof is a doubt to feature as he continues to recover from a back problem. Those issues aside, Solskjaer is likely to field a full-strength lineup at Old Trafford given he will have the chance to shuffle his pack in their FA Cup third round clash with Watford at the weekend. David de Gea should therefore get the nod in goal, sitting behind a back four consisting of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Eric Bailly, captain Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw. Scott McTominay and Fred have flourished as a central midfield partnership of late and will be expected to start in Solskjaer’s 4-2-3-1 setup once more. Marcus Rashford should be deployed on the right flank, with Paul Pogba positioned in a role on the left and Bruno Fernandes unleashed through the middle. And leading Solskjaer’s line against City is likely to be Anthony Martial, who scored in the 2-1 win over Aston Villa last time out.

Mr Burns was George Bush's ambassador to Russia and led the Obama team's nuclear talks with Iran before the 2015 deal
Mr Burns was George Bush's ambassador to Russia and led the Obama team's nuclear talks with Iran before the 2015 deal U.S. President-elect Joe Biden will tap a former career diplomat in William Burns to lead the CIA, his transition team said on Monday, as the Democrat races to put a national security team in place before his inauguration. Over a 33-year career as a U.S. diplomat and eventually deputy secretary of state, the Russian, Arabic and French speaker honed specialties in Russia and the Middle East. Mr Burns worked as an ambassador to the United States' old Cold War adversary from 2005 to 2008 and led secret talks that paved the way to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, under former Democratic President Barack Obama. That background will be critical at the spy agency in a new Biden administration that has vowed to punish Russia if it is found responsible for a massive cyber breach affecting U.S. government agencies. The Kremlin has denied responsibility. Biden, who served as vice president under Obama, has also said he would restore the Iran nuclear deal, which Republican President Donald Trump abandoned. Mr Burns, who is currently president of the international affairs think tank Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, will also help the Biden administration decide where it can cooperate with China and where to confront the rising Asian power. "Bill Burns is an exemplary diplomat with decades of experience on the world stage keeping our people and our country safe and secure," Biden said in a statement announcing his last major personnel appointment. Biden, who promised to pick a team of tested officials ready on day one, is unlikely to have a full complement of permanent national security officials when he takes office. Biden's transition was delayed by Trump contesting the Democrat's November election victory. Mr Burns must be confirmed by the U.S. Senate, where Biden's fellow Democrats narrowly hold the majority. Biden has asked lawmakers to confirm his national security team as close to his Jan. 20 inauguration as possible. Yet a move by congressional Democrats to seek Trump's impeachment over a violent assault on the Capitol by his supporters could further delay action on the appointment. Biden took months to make the CIA pick. Early contenders like former Central Intelligence Agency deputy director Michael Morell faced concerns about supporting the use of torture and drone strikes following the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States by al Qaeda.

Protest blocks $530 mln worth of copper from MMG's Peru mine...

By Maria Cervantes LIMA, Jan 5 (Reuters) - A three-week-long roadblock protest by locals has prevented Las Bambas mine in Peru, run by Australia-based MMG Ltd, from exporting 189,000 tonnes of copper concentrate, a mining association leader said on Tuesday. Pablo de la Flor, executive director of the National Society of Mining, Oil and Energy, said the blockade of a road in the Cusco region, 200 kilometers (125 miles) from the mine, had lasted 24 days and prevented export of copper concentrate worth $530 million. He warned that the company could start to halt production altogether in the coming days. The mine is one of Peru's largest copper producers, accounting for around 2% of global supply. London Metal Exchange copper rose as much as 1.3% to $8,103.50 a tonne on Wednesday, its highest since February 2013. MMG, a subsidiary of state-owned China Minmetals Corp, said there had so far been no impact on production. "However, we remain concerned regarding the risk that production will be impacted should no resolution be found to the current impasse," a spokeswoman said in an email. The company last Thursday said the blockade had forced it to declare force majeure on some supply contracts, after earlier saying if the protest continued it would progressively curtail output and carry out maintenance instead. Communities living around the mine have long complained about the lack of local benefits from the presence of Las Bambas and periodically block roads in protest. "What we're seeing is an illegal act that prevents the free movement of workers, the bringing in of materials and taking out of goods from one of Peru's most important mines which contributes 1% of the Gross Domestic Product," de la Flor said. MMG has said it reached an agreement in September with the municipality of Velille to finance sustainable development projects for up to 1.25 million soles ($348,000) over two years, as well as making spot payments to families impacted by the effects of COVID-19.

Approximately 4,000 residents of the Cañada Real slum area southeast of the Spanish capital have seen their electricity cut off by power company Naturgy since October, allegedly due to cannabis cultivation in the area. The power company says that there is suspiciously high demand for electricity in the area which it believes is due to lights to grow cannabis, leading to excessive demand on the infrastructure and blackouts. The result is that despite record-breaking cold weather, most families in the slum have only able to light and heat their homes for a few hours a day with costly fuel generators. As Storm Filomena brought snow to Madrid over recent days and with temperatures predicted to drop as low as -7 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, Madrid authorities announced emergency shelter, including a former factory and the parish centre of a local church. However, most of the slum dwellers said they preferred to stay in their homes out of fears of Covid-19 contagion and concerns they could be barred from returning to their residences, which are not legally registered. “No way are we going to that place,” Mustafa Najah, a Moroccan immigrant who has lived in the shantytown with his family for 35 years, told the newspaper El País. “We don’t want a refuge; we want electricity." Since October, Naturgy has said its investigations have found more than 60 illegal electricity connections with industrial-scale electricity usage, and says it is working to strengthen the system so the supply does not collapse every time it experiences an overload. The power company and local authorities have not been able to find a way to guarantee power supply to local families and cut off only the cannabis farmers believed to operate in the slums despite months of talks, prompting Spain’s national government to demand an immediate solution. Citing a potential “health emergency” due to the cold snap, deputy Prime Minister Pablo Iglesias demanded that Naturgy restore the electricity supply or the regional government of Madrid ask for army units to install generators. Olivier de Schutter, the UN’s special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, has slammed Spain’s inaction over the past three months, saying that more than 1,800 children are living without electricity. “Leaving families in this terrible situation is a violation of several international treaties Spain has ratified,” Mr De Schutter said at the weekend.

SHANGHAI, Jan 6 (Reuters) - China's blue-chip index closed on Wednesday at its highest level in nearly 13 years after rising for five consecutive sessions, as investors expect the government to sustain policy supports to counter COVID-19's persisting impact on the economy. ** At the close, the blue-chip CSI300 index was up 0.92% to 5,417.68, its highest since January 16, 2008, while the Shanghai Composite index was up 0.63% at 3,550.88. ** Leading the gains, the banking sector sub-index rose 2.38% and the healthcare sub-index added 1.82%. The financial sector sub-index and the consumer staples sector was up 1.63% and 1.25%, respectively. ** Due to the weak overseas demand and mounting pressure of coronavirus outbreak both at home and abroad, the monetary conditions will remain loose, Li Hao, an analyst at Sealand Securities, wrote in a note. ** Chinese authorities shut sections of highways running through Hebei province that surrounds Beijing on Wednesday and closed a key long distance bus terminal in the provincial capital Shijiazhuang in efforts to stave off another coronavirus wave. ** The province, which entered a "wartime mode" on Tuesday, accounted for 20 of the 23 new locally transmitted COVID-19 cases reported in mainland China on Jan. 5, more than the total of 19 cases in the province in the three previous days. ** China's services sector activity expanded at a slower pace in December, a private sector survey showed on Wednesday, as sporadic coronavirus outbreaks tempered the recovery in consumer confidence and weighed on new business growth. ** The smaller Shenzhen index ended down 0.07% and the start-up board ChiNext Composite index was higher by 0.552%. ** Around the region, MSCI's Asia ex-Japan stock index was firmer by 1.41%, while Japan's Nikkei index closed down 0.38%. ** At 07:13 GMT, the yuan was quoted at 6.4562 per U.S. dollar, 0.02% weaker than the previous close of 6.455.

Paris St-Germain are desperate to sign Lionel Messi and reunite the Barcelona talisman with Neymar at the Parc des Princes as they prepare for Kylian Mbappe's exit Paris St-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino has presented Lionel Messi with a bizarre contract offer in a bid to blow Manchester City out of the water. The Barcelona star is out of contract at the end of the season and looks likely to leave. Messi was desperate to depart the Nou Camp in the summer but was threatened with court action to stay. But he may get his wish and is free to speak to other clubs this month over a pre-contract agreement. City and PSG are the favourites to land the six-time Ballon d'Or winner, with the former ahead of their Parisian rivals. Pep Guardiola remains close with Messi and the two had incredible success at Barcelona. But PSG have made a last-gasp attempt to convince the Argentine his future likes in France. According to Todofichajes, the Ligue 1 champions have offered Messi similar wages to what he would earn at the Etihad. But they have also gone on to include a 'golden retirement' in the MLS with their Inter Miami. David Beckham's franchise has only been in existence for three years but have already snapped up veteran stars such as Gonzalo Higuain and Blaise Matuidi. The Inter Miami owner and England legend had a stint at PSG as a player and remains close with the club's owners. Messi has already mentioned the United States as a potential destination after admitting it was a dream to play there. And PSG are prepared to grant that wish as part of their contract offer, though Todofichajes report that City have also made a similar promise. As well as extravagant wages, they have offered the 33-year-old a chance to end his career with sister club New York City FC. Signing Messi is integral for PSG as they expect Kylian Mbappe to leave with Real Madrid looking to snap up the Frenchman, Todofichajes further report. Without the 22-year-old, the Parc des Princes outfit will lose a considerable amount of firepower. But club chiefs believe partnering Neymar up with Messi again will finally see them land the biggest prize - the Champions League.

A video shared by the North Yorkshire Moors Moorland Organisation showed a long line of motorists queuing up along Blakey Ridge
A video shared by the North Yorkshire Moors Moorland Organisation showed a long line of motorists queuing up along Blakey Ridge Motorists and families have been urged to stay away from the North York Moors after long queues of cars packed its roads over the weekend. While leaving home for exercise is permitted, Government guidance reads: "This should be limited to once per day, and you should not travel outside your local area." A video shared by the North Yorkshire Moors Moorland Organisation on Jan 10 showed a long line of motorists queuing up along Blakey Ridge in the snow. Tina Brough from the organisation said that there was a “mass influx” of vehicles, with people out sledding, walking and parked on the side of the road. “The local shop said they’d been so busy with non-local people,” she said. “I would say people had travelled at least 20 miles. “What is really, really hurting the locals is the fact we weren’t a high-risk area before we went into national lockdown. Up until just before Christmas pubs were open, shops were open. And yet you see all of this. “It’s heartbreaking really. We don’t want to be killjoys, it’s just common sense and I don’t think people are using that. Is it genuinely the right thing to do?” Last week, the North York Moors National Park Authority urged prospective visitors to stay away after the national lockdown was introduced. “With a national lockdown now in place, we urge everyone to stay at home and not to travel into the North York Moors National Park unless it is absolutely essential,” said Tom Hind, the chief executive of the North York Moors National Park Authority. “If you are heading out for your daily exercise, remember this must be done locally and in open spaces as close to your own home as possible. Nobody should be travelling for leisure.” It came as Matt Hancock, the Health Secretary, said he would “absolutely back the police” amid accusations of overzealous enforcement by some officers. Derbyshire Police last week fined Jessica Allen and Eliza Moore £200 each for meeting up five miles from their home for a walk with a coffee. A spokesman for the force said Ms Allen and Ms Moore’s actions were “clearly not in the spirit of the national effort to reduce our travel”. Ministers are understood to be considering further limits on exercise rules which could prohibit people from different households meeting up for a walk or run.

Die Landesliste der brandenburgischen CDU im September soll am 23.

Auf den ersten zehn Plätzen der Liste sind vier Frauen.

'Stick to the plan and don't make your own vaccine side-deals,' urges EU

Concerns that countries are undermining the bloc's collective purchase strategy
Concerns that countries are undermining the bloc's collective purchase strategy The EU is struggling to keep countries aligned with its Covid-19 vaccine strategy, as governments start to break rank and seek side-deals for extra jabs. Growing concerns that member states are conducting their own negotiations has prompted the European Commission’s president to write to ministers to urge them to stick to the plan and be transparent about any discussions with pharmaceutical companies. Germany prompted outrage last week after it emerged that Berlin negotiated 30 million extra doses of the Pfizer vaccine on top of its allocation from the EU’s haul of 600 million jabs. Countries are not supposed to negotiate bilaterally with pharmaceutical firms. Now EU member Cyprus has also reportedly sought additional doses. President Nicos Anastasiades said he had contacted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about extra support, adding “within days we will have the answer”. Israel is leading the world in per capita vaccinations. As of 11 January, 20.3 people out of 100 had received a jab; however, the country has been criticised by human rights groups for excluding Palestinians from its programme. Mr Anastasiades denied that the Cypriot request breaches EU rules, insisting in an interview that “there would definitely be a problem if those vaccines had not been approved by the EU”. The Commission would not comment on what it called a “hypothetical question”. Nevertheless, Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has tasked her top health official with writing to EU governments to ask them to stick to the joint-buying and negotiating strategy and be more open about any talks underway. “The letter will ask them to provide all the necessary transparency on the ways in which they are complying with the provisions of our strategy in terms of lack of contacts with those pharma companies we have or are currently negotiating with,” a Commission spokesperson said. The EU’s medicine regulator last week gave the green light for the Moderna vaccine and is expected to ramp up its review of the Oxford/AstraZeneca jab this week, when its developers submit a formal application. Approval is expected at the end of January.

Good Morning Britain's Piers Morgan took a brutal swipe at TOWIE star Lauren Goodger for saying she won't be getting the Covid vaccine, branding her a 'halfwit' Good Morning Britain presenter Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid were not impressed with TOWIE star Lauren Goodger on the show today, as they discussed her comments on the Covid pandemic. Lauren came under fire for saying that she didn't think it was right for people to wear a mask, and she wouldn't get a vaccine if offered. The reality star compared Covid to a cold, and said she was sure that she'd had the virus and hadn't died so she wasn't worried about it. Piers was infuriated by her comments, and quickly went on a rant about the reality star, slamming her as a "halfwit" and taking a swipe at her face. Showing a picture of Lauren on the screen, he hit out: "Here is a picture of Lauren. "What do you think she has been shovelling in her face? Where does that come from Lauren? What have you been putting in your face?" He added: "These people are half-wits, worse than that, they're quarter-wits. "They're giving their views to millions of young and impressionable people and not getting challenged. "They are stuffing their faces with plastic and filler and then banging on about vaccines, it is ridiculous. "Don't listen to these imbeciles, because it will cost lives." Lauren addressed her use of plastic surgery whilst discussing her anti-vax views with Daily Star, saying: "I am more scared of the vaccine than I am of the virus. I will start imagining that I am dying. "I am terrified. I don't like taking medicine. I don't like taking antibiotics. "OK, I do do aesthetics and even now I am still nervous of that – I am like that in general. "Even with a facial I want to know what is in it. That is my anxiety over the years." She also added that she was sure that she had already fallen ill with the virus last year, saying: "I didn't die from it. It is like getting it a cold. I wouldn't get the flu jab either. "I don't want to inject myself with something I don't know the longterm effects. "I have heard all the different things that are in it and I think I have had Covid already and I have coped with it."

Democrat Raphael Warnock projected to flip Georgia Senate seat in race against Republican Kelly Loeffler

Rev. Raphael Warnock is projected to win the Georgia U.S. Senate special election runoff, flipping a Republican seat and bringing Democrats one step closer to unified control of Congress and the White House, according to NBC News. The senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church will defeat incumbent GOP Sen. Kelly Loeffler, who was appointed to temporarily fill the seat after former Republican Sen. Johnny Isakson retired early. Warnock is the first Black senator elected from Georgia and the first Democratic Black senator elected from the South. He will be one of three Black senators in Congress and the 11th Black senator to serve ever. "I come before you tonight as a man who knows that the improbable journey that led me to this place in this historic moment in America could only happen here," Warnock said in a speech early Wednesday morning. "I promise you this tonight: I am going to the Senate to work for all of Georgia, no matter who you cast your vote for in this election." Even as Warnock led and outstanding votes dwindled, Loeffler did not concede Wednesday morning and contended "we are going to win this election." Republican David Perdue, whose first Senate term ended Sunday, also faced a runoff contest against Democratic challenger Jon Ossoff. NBC News has not projected a winner in that race as of Wednesday morning, as Ossoff leads with 98% of the expected vote counted. With Warnock's projected win, the Democratic caucus has 49 members in the upper chamber, while Senate Republicans hold 50 seats. If Ossoff wins the remaining runoff race, the Senate will be evenly split, giving Vice President-elect Kamala Harris the tie-breaking vote. Democratic control of Congress would give President-elect Joe Biden more leeway to enact his legislative priorities. Warnock, 51, and Loeffler, 50, emerged as the top two finishers from a crowded special election in November. After no candidate received more than 50% of the vote, Georgia election rules called for the race to move to a January runoff. The special election between Loeffler and Warnock is the second most expensive Senate race ever, just behind this year's contest between Perdue and Ossoff, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. Loeffler and Warnock's race has drawn nearly $363 million as of Monday. On the campaign trail, Warnock frequently highlighted his life journey, from growing up in Savannah's public housing to preaching at the storied Atlanta pulpit where Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. once stood. Loeffler repeatedly branded her opponent as "radical liberal Raphael Warnock," tying him to what she believes to be a socialist agenda including "Medicare for All," the Green New Deal and defunding the police. Warnock himself does not support those policies, though he has advocated for Medicaid expansion, green energy investment and criminal justice reform. "He is someone who would fundamentally change this country," Loeffler said on Fox News Sunday. "His values are out of step with Georgia." Loeffler's campaign used sound bites from Warnock's past sermons to accuse him of being anti-gun, anti-military, anti-police and anti-Israel. The Warnock campaign said those clips have been taken out of context and do not reflect his stances. A coalition of Black pastors in Georgia wrote an open letter in late December to Loeffler asking her to stop characterizing Warnock as "radical" or "socialist." "We see your attacks against Warnock as a broader attack against the Black Church and faith traditions for which we stand," the pastors said. Loeffler tried to link Warnock to a visit from Cuban communist leader Fidel Castro in 1995 at a church where he had been a youth pastor. Warnock said he had never met Castro and PolitiFact found no evidence he was involved with decisions made regarding the appearance. Meanwhile, Warnock bashed Loeffler for taking a photo at a campaign event with White supremacist Chester Doles, a former Ku Klux Klan leader and member of the neo-Nazi National Alliance. "Kelly had no idea who that was, and if she had she would have kicked him out immediately because we condemn in the most vociferous terms everything that he stands for," Loeffler's spokesman Stephen Lawson told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. GOP Gov. Brian Kemp appointed Loeffler, in part, to appeal to more moderate suburban women who have been shifting away from the GOP in response to Donald Trump's presidency. While Loeffler once supported Sen. Mitt Romney, she has allied herself strongly with Trump since becoming a senator, including supporting his baseless claims of widespread election fraud. Loeffler has refused to acknowledge Biden's victory or that the president-elect won Georgia's electoral votes. She announced in a statement Monday evening that she would oppose the certification of the Electoral College results on Wednesday, a maneuver that is expected to fail. The move came after Trump threatened Georgia's Republican Secretary of State Raffensperger over a phone call and pressured the election official to find popular votes that would tilt the count in his favor and overturn election results. "Senator Loeffler has a responsibility to speak out against the unsubstantiated claims of fraud, to defend Georgia's election, and to put Georgia ahead of herself. She has not and never will," Warnock said in a statement Sunday. Warnock repeatedly accused Loeffler, one of the richest members of Congress, of insider trading, saying that she used private knowledge given to her as a senator about the coronavirus pandemic to make advantageous stock trades early in 2020. "She dumped millions of dollars of stock, played it down, and then when she could help ordinary people, she didn't do it. And the people of Georgia haven't seen relief for months," Warnock said at a Dec. 6 debate against Loeffler. Loeffler and her husband, Jeffrey Sprecher, chairman of the New York Stock Exchange and chairman and CEO of its holding company Intercontinental Exchange, came under scrutiny in March for trades involving sales of up to $3 million worth of securities. Those sales came just before stock market indexes dramatically fell in value in reaction to the spread of Covid in the U.S. The senator's investment activities prompted Justice Department inquiries, but prosecutors declined to bring charges. Loeffler has repeatedly denied accusations of illegal or improper stock trading. Loeffler touted the CARES Act and passage of the recent $900 billion Covid relief bill as proof that she brought much-needed aid to struggling Georgians during the pandemic. Democrats, she said, stalled efforts to pass a relief package earlier. When Trump pushed for larger $2,000 stimulus checks, Warnock seized the opportunity to criticize Loeffler for opposing a larger direct payment earlier in the Covid relief negotiations. Loeffler later broke with many Senate Republicans to support the president's push for $2,000 direct payments to Americans. The seat will be up for reelection in 2022 for a six-year Senate term.

Test and Trace changes 15-minute 'close contact' rule

Close contact now means anyone who has been within two metres of someone for 15 minutes cumulatively or multiple times in one day
Close contact now means anyone who has been within two metres of someone for 15 minutes cumulatively or multiple times in one day The Test and Trace scheme in England has revised one of its definitions of a "close contact" - the people who need to be reached if they have been near to someone who has tested positive for Covid-19. The definition now refers to a close contact as anyone who has been within two metres of someone for more than 15 minutes, whether in a single period or cumulatively over the course of one day. Previously the definition was just a single period of at least 15 minutes. Many more people are likely to be notified to self-isolate with the rule change. In September, England and Wales launched a contact tracing app – the NHS Covid-19 app – to stem the tide of the second coronavirus wave. The app, downloaded by millions of people in the UK is designed to let people know if they have been in contact with someone who later tests positive for Covid-19. Users can record details of their symptoms on the app on their phone if they start to feel unwell. It keeps a trace of others who have been in close contact through the phones' Bluetooth signals. These perform an anonymous digital "handshake" when two users are within around two metres from each other for up to 15 minutes. This has today been changed. The app does not need to connect to mobile data to function. If an individual later reports that they are positive for coronavirus, the app will alert people who have been in close-contact with them in the last 28 days based. The app will ask those people to self-isolate and they are legally required to do so. The new system also takes into account how infectious a person who tests positive was at the moment of contact, judged by closeness in time to the onset of symptoms. You may be instructed to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace, which is a legal requirement. This will be from the day you were last in contact with the person who tested positive. People are advised to order food or medicine online or by phone, or through friends and family. If you do not self-isolate, you may be fined £1,000, increasing up to £10,000 for repeat offenders. Employers who force or allow staff to go to work when they should be self-isolating will be liable for fines of up to £10,000. The Government said they will use police resources to check compliance in highest incidence areas and in high-risk groups. You can download the app on a smartphone but not on tablets or smart watches. Simply search for "NHS Covid-19" on Google Play or the App Store.

Die republikanischen Kongressabgeordneten, die heute die Zertifizierung der US-Wahl verweigern, werden in die Annalen eingehen als Verräter an der amerikanischen Verfassung. Nun rächt sich, dass die Republikaner dem Präsidenten nicht früher entgegengetreten sind Es gehörte jahrzehntelang zum außenpolitischen Mantra der Republikaner, dass man aggressiven autokratischen Regimen frühzeitig entgegentreten muss, bevor sie noch größeren Schaden anrichten. Es war eine Lehre aus der erfolglosen britischen Beschwichtigungspolitik gegenüber Nazideutschland, die 1938 im Münchner Abkommen mündete, welches dem Deutschen Reich die Eingliederung des Sudetenlandes erlaubte. Ein Appeasement, welches den Zweiten Weltkrieg jedoch nicht verhinderte, sondern Hitlers Appetit nur anfachte, sich weitere Länder Europas einzuverleiben. Seitdem hat Beschwichtigungspolitik einen schlechten Ruf in Amerika - nicht nur, aber besonders unter Konservativen. Egal ob es um die Bekämpfung Saddam Husseins ging, die Verhinderung der iranischen Bombe oder heutzutage um das Zurückdrängen des chinesischen Hegemonialstrebens, stets schwebt das Trauma von München über der amerikanischen Debatte, wenn es darum geht, die Schurken der Weltpolitik in ihre Schranken zu weisen. In den vergangenen Jahren hat sich nun gezeigt, dass Appeasement auch in der amerikanischen Innenpolitik eine schlechte Idee ist. Die Republikaner haben auf den Machtmissbrauch Donald Trumps in der Ukraine-Affäre nur mit Beschwichtigung reagiert und haben sich im US-Senat geweigert, dem Impeachment-Votum des Abgeordnetenhauses zu folgen. Und das, obwohl der Ukraineskandal schon den Versuch Trumps darstellte, die Macht seines Amtes zu nutzen, um die demokratische Willensbildung in den USA zu manipulieren. Viele Kommentatoren hatten damals gewarnt, dass Trump eine Entlastung im Senat als Freibrief verstehen würde für weitere Normenverstöße. Und so ist es denn auch tatsächlich gekommen. Die Farce der vergangenen zwei Monate, in denen Trump versucht hat, seine klare Niederlage im demokratischen Wahlprozess in einen Sieg umzukehren, ist der schwerwiegendste Angriff auf die amerikanische Demokratie und die Glaubwürdigkeit ihrer Institutionen seit der Gründung der Republik. Sie gipfelte im Telefongespräch Trumps mit dem Wahlleiter in Georgia, das vor einigen Tagen von der „Washington Post“ veröffentlicht wurde, in dem der Präsident seinen republikanischen Parteifreund Brad Raffensperger dazu drängt, ihm die 11.800 Stimmen zu beschaffen, die nötig wären, um seine Niederlage in Georgia in einen Sieg zu verwandeln. Waren die Republikaner in der Ukraine-Affäre noch Beschwichtiger, so sind sie in den vergangenen Wochen zu Komplizen des Trumpschen Angriffes auf die Demokratie geworden und haben seine Lügen und seine irre Dolchstoßlegende von der angeblich gestohlenen Wahl weiterverbreitet. Es war das zynische Spiel feiger Opportunisten. Schließlich glaubt niemand wirklich daran, dass Trumps klare Niederlage das Ergebnis einer groß angelegten Verschwörung war. Doch viele hatten Angst, sich die Wut Trumps und die seiner Fans an der Basis zuzuziehen. Und sie hatten die Hoffnung, der Präsident werde die Farce irgendwann beenden und man könne die Sache dann stillschweigend zu den Akten legen. Doch diese Hoffnung wurde enttäuscht. Statt seine Kampagne für die Annullierung des Wahlergebnisses aufzugeben, zwingt Trump die Republikaner heute im US-Kongress zum Schwur: Sie müssen sich entweder für ihr Gewissen entscheiden und die Stimmen der Wahlmänner und damit den Sieg Joe Bidens endgültig zertifizieren, oder in letzter Konsequenz zu Trumps Lügen stehen und die Bestätigung des Wahlmännervotums verweigern. 13 republikanische Senatoren und Dutzende Abgeordnete haben schon angekündigt, Trumps faktischen Coup-Versuch zu unterstützen. Sie werden in die Annalen der amerikanischen Geschichte eingehen als Verräter an der amerikanischen Demokratie und der US-Verfassung – und als Speichellecker eines verrückt gewordenen Präsidenten. Trump spaltet damit die republikanische Partei. Die muss nun erkennen, dass es besser gewesen wäre, Trumps Wahlbetrugsvorwürfe schon vor zwei Monaten abzuwehren, bevor sie mit ihm in den undemokratischen Abgrund marschierten und den Ruf der altehrwürdigen Partei Abraham Lincolns nachträglich beschädigten. So zeigt sich abermals: Appeasement lohnt sich nicht. Und wer Schurken nicht früh in die Schranken weist, kann damit langfristig noch größeren Schaden anrichten.

It's time for America to finally scrap its lengthy transition period

Ungracious Trump has proved lame-duck periods are pointless
Ungracious Trump has proved lame-duck periods are pointless It will be 70 days tomorrow since the American presidential election; 67 since the major television networks declared Joe Biden the winner. By now, bar the most conspiracy-addled of Congress-stormers, most Americans can agree that whether they like it or not, it will a Democrat who will take to the dais on Inauguration Day to be sworn in as the 46th President of the United States. Tomorrow also marks 50 days since the Donald Trump appointee Emily Murphy, head of the General Services Administration, the body that supports the functioning of the federal government, reluctantly and belatedly issued the “letter of ascertainment” naming Mr Biden as “the apparent winner”, the formal mechanism for triggering the transition process. In the United Kingdom, we are largely spared the laborious interregnum that is a presidential transition lasting between ten and nearly eleven weeks. It always feels longer, a tortuously drawn-out affair known semi-officially as “lame duck”, characterised at best by stasis and at worst, as we are now witnessing: confusion and chaos. The US is rare among major democracies to hobble itself with such a lengthy transition. Only Mexico, at five months, is longer. France keeps the transition between Presidents of the Republic to a crisp 10 days. British transfers of power are brutal affairs, the packing vans line up at the back of 10 Downing Street as the new Prime Minister walks through the famous black door. Even the hung parliament of 2010 took only a few days of wrangling before the Coalition Government was formed. Yet it could be worse – presidential terms were originally designed to begin in March, to give state Electoral College electors enough time to make the long journey to Washington DC in the height of mid-winter. With the advent of speedier modes of transportation, the time was cut in half under the 20th Amendment to the Constitution in 1933. These days, with even Hawaii no more than a nine-hour flight from DC, and central heating guaranteed throughout, the length of the transition feels increasingly like wasted time. True, President Trump’s two-month sulk is making this current US transition particularly endless and unedifying. But a glance at American history shows painful transitions are not uncommon. Seven states seceded from the Union during the transition from James Buchanan to Abraham Lincoln in 1861; Buchanan refused to use the military to stop them, meaning Lincoln was plunged into Civil War within a month of his inauguration. During the Great Depression, incoming President Franklin D Roosevelt rejected his predecessor Herbert Hoover’s offer to work together to agree a federal programme to steady the financial markets and help the millions out of work. While FDR is lauded for getting America back on its feet following the Depression, his intransigence, borne out of personal antipathy for Hoover, delayed the recovery by months, during which hundreds of banks failed and millions went hungry. Bill Clinton’s team famously trashed the West Wing during the transition to George W Bush, graffitiing the lavatories and removing the “Ws” from the keyboards, causing $15,000 of damage along the way. President Bush was so determined not to repeat this ungraciousness, he ensured the transition to Barack Obama was exemplary, working with his one-time rival to agree a bailout for the car industry during early days of the financial crisis. Mr Obama followed his lead, announcing the day after President Trump’s victory that he would do everything in his power to ease the transition, and inviting his successor to the White House. The tradition has stopped with Trump. The President has refused to concede, blocked Mr Biden’s access to national security briefings, failed to cooperate on tackling the pandemic, stoked his supporters into insurrection and generally acted as an impediment to the smooth transfer of power. Much of the problem is administrative; unlike Britain, which has a neutral civil service to smooth the transition, an incoming US president must name more than 4,000 appointments, many of whom need Senate approval. Calls for an earlier start to the process collide against the reality that most campaigns will not spend valuable time, energy and money on something they can put off until after the election. The answer must be to either make many more offices politically neutral, or to make it normal practice for the first weeks of a presidency to be devoted to the functions that currently take place during a transition; preferably both. In the most powerful nation of the world, the peaceful transition of power should not be at the whim of a capricious president.

Seven different clubs represented in our weekly selection of the Premiership's best players
Seven different clubs represented in our weekly selection of the Premiership's best players Only the one cancelled game last weekend as we lost the East Midlands derby, but there was still plenty to enjoy, particularly the scoreboard chaos at The Rec on Friday night. Here are the top players from round six. Player of the match in Sunday's draw at Harlequins and the young full-back looks full of promise for the Exiles, offering a long-term option in the 15 shirt. A former England Under-20 international, Parton made 136 metres and beat six defenders. Good weekends too for Charles Piutau of Bristol and Harlequins' Mike Brown. In outstanding form, the former Shark is thriving at Wasps and it's worth noting that he also qualifies for Italy. Two tries in that insane fixture at The Rec, with Odogwu making four clean breaks and beating five defenders. Tight competition here from London Irish's Curtis Rona, who has three tries in four Premiership games this season, but there were several moments of Radradra magic against Exeter, plus a try for the Fijian who made three offloads. Starting to fulfil on his promise. It was interesting last week to hear Redpath discuss how much he has matured since arriving at Bath and they are starting to get the best out of him. Scored a try, beat four defenders and looks some prospect. Absolutely searing pace on the young Newcastle wing, who has picked up where he left off in the Championship scoring 10 tries last season. This was his second of the campaign but what a beauty, running from his own 22 and steaming past Jonny May, no less, to score. Beat six defenders at Kingston Park. Josh Bassett was red hot again for Wasps. Few standouts this week but Smith took his try well in the first half against the Exiles, with Harlequins in control up 27-15 in the second half until things unravelled. Eddie Jones was watching, along with Simon Amor. Smith has played better but there were glimpses of his talent here. Speaking of players on the verge of international recognition. Will England swoop to cap Randall, who offers so much defensively, not forgetting his urgency to keep the tempo high from tapped penalties and his running threat? Maybe. Or Wales could swoop in too. Either way, some talent and player of the match against Exeter. Hype is steadily building at Sale around the 20-year-old prop, who looks a good prospect and shined with his work over the ball at the breakdown in the win over Worcester. Chipped in too with seven tackles. Two tries and an assist for the hooker whose name just demands a few puns, always a risky business (sorry). Lovely step and finish for one of his scores at The Rec and the Wasps hooker has really kicked on over the past year. Handy in the loose with a couple of offloads. Brought in to replace Kyle Sinckler and the Springbok was properly dominant against London Irish, giving the Exiles' loosehead Harry Elrington a horrible time of it. Louw's power generated multiple scrum penalties in the second half before Scott Steele's try. Scrummaging like that, worth every penny. Shoutout to Ollie Hoskins of Irish for scoring on his 100th appearance. Very good, again, in that high-scoring points fest against Bath, with Launchbury finishing the game as Wasps' top tackler by some distance (yes, there was a bit of defence despite it finishing 44-52). Fifteen tackles, four takes in the lineout too and he looks nailed on to start in the Six Nations. Really impressive over the past couple of weeks for the Bears. Joyce helped Bristol take on Exeter upfront at their own game with a huge shift in the lineout, claiming eight balls in total, and also punched in 10 tackles. Working well with Dave Attwood and Bristol have a rock solid core at the moment. Usually, when Ross goes well, so does his team. Wrapped things up for Sale with that late try in the win over Worcester and he was typically busy, with 11 carries and 13 tackles. Sale starting to find their feet again with back-to-back wins. This rise Newcastle are on has been great fun to watch, given how low expectations were regarding their prospects before the season got underway. Naturally, Wilson has been a critical part of their early success (five wins in six). Thirteen carries and a team-high 16 tackles from the England back-row on the weekend. Plenty of competition from Nathan Hughes at Bristol and also Newcastle's Gary Graham, but I'm a fan of Tuisue's ball-carrying and he adds real dynamism to Irish's back row unit. Took his try well as the team came back at The Stoop and he was Irish's top carrier with 14, with three breaks and beating four defenders. And he made 11 tackles.

Der FC Bayern kann den Vorsprung zum Start in die zweite Saisonhälfte deutlich ausbauen – denn sowohl Leipzig als auch Leverkusen patzen. Während es für Herthas Trainer eng wird, ist Eintracht Frankfurt in Torlaune. Bayern Münchens Verfolger haben zum Rückrundenauftakt in der Fußball-Bundesliga kräftig geschwächelt. Der Tabellenzweite RB Leipzig (35 Punkte) kassierte beim Liga-Vorletzten 1. FSV Mainz 05 eine 2:3 (2:2)-Pleite und verpasste es damit, bis auf einen Punkt an die Bayern (39) ran zu kommen, die erst am Sonntag dran sind - bei Schlusslicht FC Schalke 04. Auch Bayer 04 Leverkusen (32) auf Rang drei strauchelte. Im Werksduell verloren die Leverkusener mit 0:1 (0:1) daheim gegen den VfL Wolfsburg (32), der vorerst auf Platz vier kletterte vor Borussia Mönchengladbach (31). Die Mannschaft von Trainer Marco Rose hatte Freitagabend Borussia Dortmund (7./29) 4:2 zum Auftakt des 18. Spieltags bezwungen. Hertha verliert gegen Bremen, Leipzig gegen Mainz An einem torreichen Samstag rückte Eintracht Frankfurt (30) durch ein 5:1 (3:1) bei Aufsteiger Armina Bielefeld auf einen Europapokalrang, der SC Freiburg bezwang Aufsteiger VfB Stuttgart mit 2:1 (2:1). Der 1. FC Union kassierte nach seinen Erfolgswochen durch ein 1:2 (1:1) beim FC Augsburg die zweite Niederlage nacheinander. Stadtrivale Hertha BSC verlor daheim gegen den SV Werder Bremen 1:4 (1:2) – für Trainer Bruno Labbadia und Sport-Geschäftsführer Michael Preetz dürfte es noch ungemütlicher werden. Nicht gut drauf nach der Niederlage in Mainz war auch Leipzigs Trainer Julian Nagelsmann. Tyler Adams (15.) und Nationalspieler Marcel Halstenberg (30.) brachten RB zweimal in Führung. Zweimal glich Moussa Niakhaté (24./35.) für die Mainzer aus. Für den zweiten Saisonsieg nach dem 3:1 gegen den SC Freiburg am 22. November 2020 sorgte Leandro Barreiro (59.) mit seinem Tor nach der Pause. So kann auch Bayer die Bayern nicht unter Druck setzen. Nur ein Sieg gab es in den vergangenen sechs Spielen. Die Schlappe gegen Wolfsburg war bereits die vierte in dem gleichen Zeitraum. Für die Entscheidung sorgte Ridle Baku (35.). Freiburg siegt im Landesduell gegen den VfB Der SC Freiburg schickte den Landesrivalen aus Stuttgart ohne Punkte heim. In der siebten Minute gingen die Breisgauer durch Silas Wamangituka in Führung. Den schnellen Ausgleich durch Ermedin Demirovic (14.) konterten die Gastgeber mit dem Treffer durch Wooyeong Jeong (37.). Kurz vor der Pause vergab Nicolas Gonzalez mit einem alles andere als beherzten Elfmeter die Chance auf ein Remis. Mit zwei Toren sorgte der FCA-Stürmer Florian Niederlechner (17., 47.) fast im Alleingang für die Niederlage der Unioner aus Berlin. Zwischenzeitig hatte Marcus Ingvartsen (25.) ausgeglichen. Ausgerechnet er scheiterte in der 56. Minute aber auch an Ex-Union-Keeper Rafal Gikiewicz mit einem Elfmeter. Eintracht rückt auf Europapokalrang vor Beim Frankfurter Kantersieg leitete Torjäger André Silva (25.) den fünften Erfolg in den vergangenen sechs Spielen ein. Filip Kostic (27.) und erneut Silva (33.) legten fix nach. Nach dem Anschlusstreffer durch Sergio Córdova (36.) unterlief Bielefelds Joakim Nilsson (51.) ein Eigentor, ehe Luka Jovic (75.) für den Endstand sorgte. Frankfurt klettert auf Platz sechs, Bielefeld bleibt 15, punktgleich mit der ebenfalls sieglosen Hertha. Schon vor dem Spiel hatten Fans gegen Trainer und Manager demonstriert. Der Rückhalt dürfte bei manchen durch die vom Ergebnis her krachende Niederlage gegen Bremen nicht größer werden. Ex-Herthaner Davie Selke traf in der zehnten Minute für Bremen, Ömer Toprak (29.) erhöhte. Nach 1:2 durch Jhon Córdoba unmittelbar vor der Pause stellte Leonardo Bittencourt (57.) den Zwei-Tore-Vorsprung der Gäste wieder her, ehe Joshua Sargent (77.) alles klar machte.

Berlin (dpa/bb) - Nach dem Rückzieher von Berlins Bildungssenatorin Sandra Scheeres (SPD) und der verschobenen Öffnung der Schulen hat die FDP möglicht bald Präsenzunterricht zumindest für die ersten vier Grundschulklassen gefordert. «Es gab gute Gründe dafür, die Schulen bereits früher wieder zu öffnen», teilte der FDP-Bildungspolitiker Paul Fresdorf am Samstag mit. Gerade für die jüngsten Schüler sei Unterricht durch die Lehrer sehr wichtig. Voraussetzung seien Maßnahmen gegen Corona-Infektionen: zwei Schnelltests pro Woche für Lehrer und Schüler sowie FFP-2-Masken für Lehrer und Plexiglas am Lehrerpult. «Mit diesen Vorkehrungen könnte der Unterricht in halben Klassen bereits früher beginnen.» Nach tagelangen Protesten von Lehrern und einem Teil der Eltern war Senatorin Scheeres zurückgerudert und hatte die geplante Wiedereröffnung der Schulen für die Klassen 1 bis 9 mindestens bis zum 25. Januar verschoben. Bis dahin müssen sich weiter vor allem die Eltern um Betreuung der Kinder und Vermittlung des Lernstoffs kümmern. Für die Abschlussklassen 10, 12 und 13 an Gymnasien und Sekundarschulen soll ab kommender Woche Unterricht in kleinen Gruppen möglich sein. Am 19. Januar will der Senat darüber entscheiden, wie es ab dem 25. Januar mit den Grundschulen weiter geht. Ursprünglich hatte der Senat beschlossen, ab dem 18. Januar wieder Unterricht für die Klassen 1 bis 3 zu ermöglichen. Die Lehrergewerkschaft GEW, einige Schulleiter, Eltern- und Schülervertreter protestierten und verwiesen auf Ansteckungsgefahren. Druck kam auch von Linken und Grünen sowie den neuen Berliner SPD-Vorsitzenden Franziska Giffey und Raed Saleh.

The potential postponement of the European Champions Cup could have knock-on consequences for any suspension Sinckler faces
The potential postponement of the European Champions Cup could have knock-on consequences for any suspension Sinckler faces Kyle Sinckler is in danger of missing the start of England’s Six Nations campaign after being cited for a foul-mouthed outburst at referee Karl Dickson during Bristol Bears’ 20-7 victory against Exeter Chiefs. The Bristol prop will appear before an online independent disciplinary panel on Tuesday evening charged with failing to respect the authority of the match official, contrary to World Rugby Law 9.28. That carries with it a top-end sanction of more than six weeks, although Sinckler is more likely to face a low-end (two weeks) or mid-end (four weeks). England are due to start their Six Nations campaign against Scotland on February 6, however a further complication is that suspensions are measured in weeks in which meaningful matches occur. At present, it is looking highly likely that the next two rounds of the European Champions Cup will be postponed, meaning any suspension may only kick in from the week beginning January 25. The incident occurred early in the second half when Sinckler was tackled by Exeter hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie in what appeared to be a low no-arms tackle. Referee Dickson deemed it legal, leading to Sinckler to show “Are you f------ serious?” Dickson did review the tackle but opted not to penalise Sinckler, a former teammate from their days as Harlequins, whom he warned “the language you used is unacceptable”. Sinckler was subsequently cited by independent citing commissioner Duncan Bell. Sinckler issued an immediate apology on social media after Saturday’s game, tweeting: “Want to apologise for my reaction today. Not the example I want to be setting. Heat of the moment stuff. Will make a conscious effort to improve. My bad.” The 27-year-old, once described by Lions boss Warren Gatland as a “emotional time bomb”, has a chequered disciplinary record. In 2017, he was banned for seven weeks for making contact with the eye of Northampton’s Michael Paterson. The independent disciplinary panel will be chaired by Richard Whittam QC, with Becky Essex and one other panel member to be confirmed.

Der Lockdown trifft die Gastronomie besonders hart, aber er wird nicht ewig dauern. Hier sind 18 Restaurant-Empfehlungen in Deutschland und Europa, die allen Grund zur Vorfreude bieten.
Der Lockdown trifft die Gastronomie besonders hart, aber er wird nicht ewig dauern. Hier sind 18 Restaurant-Empfehlungen in Deutschland und Europa, die allen Grund zur Vorfreude bieten. Französische Leitkultur Das „Tantris“ in München war zwar Teil der deutschen Küchenrevolution, aber kochte stets auch mit starkem französischem Akzent. Dieser Tage wurde der neue Küchenchef verkündet, der nach der ruhmreichen Ära von Hans Haas frischen, aber auch nicht zu frischen Wind in das grell-fantastisch eingerichtete Haus bringen soll. Der Kanadier Benjamin Chmura hat vorher unter anderem bei „Troisgros“ und in der „Auberge de l’Ill“ gekocht, also in legendären Küchen. Nach der Renovierung soll das „Tantris“ im August wieder öffnen. Pflichtbesuch. Der Stadtteil Trastevere in Rom ist ebenso pittoresk wie übervölkert mit „Eat, Pray, Love“-Amerikanern und schludrigen „Cacio e Pepe“-Kaschemmen. Aber es gibt Hoffnung. Das „Zia“ hat jüngst einen Michelin-Stern erhalten und die Speisekarte klingt wie intelligent entstaubtes Genuss-Italien: Risotto mit Büffelmozzarella, Zitrone und Enzian, Teigtaschen mit Zicklein und Apfel, Kalbsbries mit dreierlei Milch. Perfekt nach einem Besuch der Raphael-Fresken in der Villa Farnesina. Das „Ernst“ im Berliner Stadtteil Wedding ist eines der stilprägenden neuen Restaurants in Deutschland: fast mönchisch reduziert, qualitätsversessen, neo-schick. Nun reduziert man die Zahl der ohnehin sehr knappen Sitzplätze, von 12 auf 8. Klingt total antizyklisch und damit weit vorn. Ab Oktober wieder offen. Hummer zum Frühstück Regeln beim Essen waren schon a. C., ante Corona, irgendwie doof. Jetzt sollte alles erlaubt sein, Frühstück am Nachmittag beispielsweise. Nirgends geht das formvollendeter als im Brunchrestaurant „Frühstück 3000“ im Berliner Bezirk Schöneberg, eröffnet mitten in der Krise und betrieben von drei Veteranen der Sternegastronomie. Langosch mit Sauerkrautgranitee und krossem Speck? Na klar. Eggs Benedict mit Hummer? Aber sicher. Auch die alkoholischen Cocktails wie der „Brewski“ sind hier immer eine gute Entscheidung. Das „Oxalis“ im „Hotel Mühle“ am Schluchsee wurde gerade vom „Gault Millau“ zur „Entdeckung des Jahres“ gekürt: In einer 400 Jahre alten Getreidemühle im Hochschwarzwald verschränkt Max Goldberg japanische Kochkunst mit Produkten aus der Region. Und die bietet als schönen Nebeneffekt etwas, das gerade in anstrengenden Zeiten besonders attraktiv ist, nämlich viel Natur und wenig Trubel. Das aufgebrachte Gemüt beruhigen auch die Pastelltöne in der „XO Seafood Bar“ in Hamburg. Küchenchef Fabio Haebels, der zuletzt die Aktion „Kochen für Helden“ an die Waterkant brachte, hat das Lokal im vergangenen März eröffnet und serviert hier erlesene Fischgerichte. Der Besuch gleicht deshalb einem lange ersehnten Tag am Meer. Die vielen kleinen Teller sind zum Teilen gedacht, eine Kulturtechnik, die wir uns von keinem Virus der Welt nehmen lassen sollten. Smoker statt Smoking Eine der interessantesten Neueröffnungen des neuen Jahres dürfte das „Bottles & Bones“ in München werden, ein authentisches American BBQ von Justin G. Leone, dem ehemaligen Sommelier des „Tantris“. Weil man bei Leone sicher sein kann, eine Weinkarte hingelegt zu bekommen, die deutschlandweit kaum ihresgleichen finden wird, und weil er mit Joe Woodel einen Küchenchef nach Deutschland holt, der beim BBQ-Championship in Nashville vielfach ausgezeichnet wurde. In unsicheren Zeiten kehrt man aber auch gern zur bewährten und verlässlich hervorragenden Gastlichkeit zurück, etwa in den „Schwarzen Adler“ in Vogtsburg im Kaiserstuhl, den Gasthof der Familie von DFB-Präsident Fritz Keller. Weil man – Michelin-Stern hin oder her – in diesem großen Restaurant nie enttäuscht wird, weil die Küche und der beispiellos tiefe Weinkeller grandios süddeutsch-französisch ausgerichtet sind, und weil man hier so gutbürgerlich isst, wie es in Deutschland ansonsten leider ausgestorben zu sein scheint. Ein vergleichbares Kaliber ist der „Reiler Hof“ in Reil an der Mosel – ein Wirtshaus, wie es sonst nur in Österreich oder in der Deutschschweiz zu finden ist, weil hier wunderbare lokale Gerichte auf die Teller kommen, weil die Stimmung immer extrem herzlich ist, weil man dort ein paar der besten deutschen Winzer persönlich antrifft und mitkriegt, was die trinken. Leider in dieser Art ein Unikat am schönen Fluss der großen Rieslinge. Königsberger Klopse und Kastanientofu Kurz nachdem Chefkoch Marco Müller seinen dritten Michelin-Stern eingeheimst hatte, übernahm das Team des Gourmetrestaurants „Rutz“ das alte Zollhaus am Berliner Landwehrkanal, eine Art Ausflugslokal mitten in der Stadt. Im „Rutz Zollhaus“ bekommt man regionale Wohlfühlküche und Wirtshausklassiker wie Königsberger Klopse auf einem Niveau geboten, wie man es an den klassischen Ausflugszielen im Berliner Umland vergeblich sucht. Kulinarische Ausflüge in eine ganz andere Welt bietet das „UUU Berlin“. In einem festgelegten Acht-Gänge-Menü zelebriert Yhung Wu, die bei Tim Raue und Sven Elverfeld gearbeitet hat, gemeinsam mit ihrem Partner Jonas Borchers die sagenhafte Vielfalt der westchinesischen Küche. Allein die Zubereitung der Zanderchips dauert zwei Tage. Das Lokal hat nur neun Plätze, deshalb könnte es demnächst schwer werden, dort eine Reservierung zu bekommen. Ebenfalls von einem Paar betrieben wird das „Klösterle“ im Zugertal im österreichischen Vorarlberg. Ethel Joon und Jakob Zeller, von der österreichischen Ausgabe des „Gault Millau“ gerade zu den Newcomern des Jahres erklärt, haben sich in der Küche des legendären „Fäviken“ in der westschwedischen Einöde getroffen, wo sie gelernt haben, auf die Erzeugnisse der unmittelbaren Umgebung zu vertrauen und so das Beste aus den elementaren Bestandteilen einer Mahlzeit herauszuholen. Ein Menü mit Heusuppe, geräuchertem Kastanientofu und Rehkitz vom Grill vor dem Bergpanorama des Zugertals klingt jedenfalls spektakulär. Morcheln und Schnepfen Wer nach Spanien reist und bereit ist, mit dem Auto etwas übers Land zu gondeln, findet geniale Restaurants abseits der bekannten Foodie-Destinationen. Das „Ca L’Enric“ im vulkanischen Naturpark von La Garrotxa bei Girona in Nordostkatalonien ist ein von drei Geschwistern in dritter Generation geführtes Lokal, in dem eine typisch katalanische Kreativküche mit lokalen Produkten serviert wird. Im Winter ist das Restaurant für seine Schnepfengerichte berühmt, im Frühjahr stehen Morcheln auf der Karte, die nur in Waldgebieten gesammelt werden, in denen es vor Kurzem gebrannt hat. Das sorgt für ein sensationell rauchiges Aroma. Weniger umständlich ist die Anreise zum „Grapes“, einer gepflegten Weinbar mit Kaminfeuer im „Cortiina Hotel“ in München. Oft trifft man sich hier eigentlich nur auf ein Glas Wein, um dann festzustellen, dass die exzellenten Flammkuchen und andere kleine Gerichte aus der Küche völlig ausreichen, um einen tollen Abend zu erleben. Seit Kurzem und hoffentlich bald wieder gibt es hier jeden Montag die besten Schnitzel Münchens. Luftig in der kontinuierlich geschwenkten Pfanne souffliert, wie es sich gehört. Wer das Sechs-Gänge-Menü erleben möchte, das Tohru Nakamura in seinem kurz vorm zweiten Lockdown eröffneten „Salon Rouge“ serviert, muss sich beeilen: Am 1. April soll das Pop-up-Restaurant in der Münchner Altstadt auch schon wieder schließen, da das Gebäude saniert wird. Bis er in den verwinkelten Stuben wieder Gäste bewirten kann, verkauft der Spitzenkoch im Hof des Restaurants japanisches Street Food, das über die Schließzeit hinwegtröstet und für das die Münchner gern bis zum Dallmayr um die Ecke in der Schlange stehen. Ein Europa ohne Grenzen Ein prächtiger Landgasthof in einem idyllischen Tal am Fuße der Alpen, unweit des Mittelmeers und am Schnittpunkt dreier Sprach- und Kulturräume. Im „Hiša Franko“ glänzt Ana Roš mit ihrer mutigen Küche, in der all diese Einflüsse zusammenfließen und die vor Kurzem mit zwei Michelin-Sternen geadelt wurde – im vergangenen Sommer ist die erste Slowenien-Ausgabe des Restaurantführers erschienen. Ein Restaurant wie ein Europa ohne Grenzen. In Paris finden sich zweifelsfrei etliche Restaurants, in denen man besser isst als im „Bouillon Pigalle“ – jedoch kaum zu solch niedrigen Preisen. Hauptattraktion ist hier also weniger die (durchaus korrekte) Küche als vielmehr die sensationelle Stimmung, die die eng beisammen sitzenden Gäste erzeugen. Wenn denn mal alle durchgeimpft sind. Kurzum: viel Paris für wenig Geld. Im neuen Jahr wird ein zweites Großrestaurant in Paris eröffnet, ein weiteres in London soll folgen. Wenn vor der Terrasse der „Tavernetta al Molo“ die Sonne im Golf von Triest versinkt, wenn die letzten Boote im putzigen Hafen von Grignano einlaufen und auf dem Tisch der Topf mit der Meeresfrüchte-Pasta oder der Teller mit Capesante-Muscheln und Pinienkernen steht, fragt Wirt Matteo gern, ob dies denn nicht der schönste Platz auf Erden sei. Widersprochen hat noch niemand.

Would you bet millions of dollars on a corporate travel comeback? Doesn’t matter. Andreessen Horowitz, Addition and Elad Gil are anyways.
Would you bet millions of dollars on a corporate travel comeback? Doesn’t matter. Andreessen Horowitz, Addition and Elad Gil are anyways. This week, the trio led a nine-figure financing round in TripActions, a software company that helps other companies book and manage corporate travel. But the news is (always) more than the number. I see TripActions’ growth as a signal to travel sector startups, which faced the brunt of the pandemic’s impact. We’ve heard the market is emerging again, but the fact that investors poured money into an up-round valued at $5 billion adds an extra layer of conviction. TripActions, like many travel startups, laid off hundreds of employees in the beginning of the pandemic as the coronavirus froze business travel. It still hasn’t returned to pre-pandemic levels, but a spokesperson for the company said that a more distributed working class could boost corporate travels. If you don’t have to commute every day, maybe you don’t mind hopping on a flight once a month instead. Here’s why this could be good news: Distributed work and corporate travel aren’t mutually exclusive categories. For founders in the remote work space, this is key wiggle room to consider as we wait for post-pandemic consumer behavior to be colored in. So often, founders pitch that their startup is remote-or-bust, and while that might make a good headline, it’s clear that everyone will come out of this time with a different mindset. Read on, as we discuss Plaid’s new investment in early-stage founders, Israel’s startup ecosystem, and telehealth in two different ways. Also, here’s your weekly reminder that you can find me @nmasc_and send me tips on early-stage startup financings to natasha.m@techcrunch.com Plaid takes notes from Y Combinator Last week, I joked that ‘Plaid for X’ startups will live on, even though the business ended its plans to merge with Visa for $5.3 billion. This week, Plaid announced an accelerator to boost Plaid for X startups. You can’t make this stuff up. What you need to know: Finrise, which began as an idea in an internal hackathon last summer, will help three to five entrepreneurs from underrepresented backgrounds navigate starting a fintech business. There’s no capital involved, but there is Plaid mentorship, a bootcamp, and access to a network of investors. Etc: It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Plaid is building out its own incubator program. Fintech as a sector has been booming. The latest fintech data dive shows un-exited fintech unicorns are now worth an all-time high. The “unicorn effect” is impacting average valuations and deal-size. And in case other sectors are feeling left out, VCs invested $428 million into U.S.-based startups everyday in 2020. Telehealth enters a ‘unique, high-growth period’ In our latest investor survey, eight healthcare-focused venture capitalists talked about the future of digital health. What you need to know: Telehealth isn’t just growing in demand, it’s growing in definition. Investors examined the future of digital health financing, how the Biden administration will impact their portfolio companies, and how to balance opportunity with incentives in a sector as emotional as this. Here’s how Nan Li, managing director at Obvious Ventures, puts the opportunity ahead: Etc: Another investor survey for you this week: 6 investors on 2021’s mobile gaming trends and opportunities.

Paolo Odogwu: How the Wasp has become one of the Premiership's leading lights

Rugby nerd: What is Odogwu doing differently this season? And why have his performances gone through the roof?
Rugby nerd: What is Odogwu doing differently this season? And why have his performances gone through the roof? Paolo Odogwu is fast becoming one of the stars of the Gallagher Premiership. All season long, Odogwu has bamboozled defences with his elusive footwork and powerful ball-carrying. A shift from the wing to outside centre has helped spark Odogwu into life, although Friday night’s performance as a winger illustrates he is more than capable of thriving in either role. A former England U20 international, Odogwu’s talent is now coming to the fore at the age of 23. So what exactly is Odogwu doing differently this season? And why have his performances gone through the roof? Despite having been a Premiership player for a number of years, at Sale Sharks before joining Wasps, Odogwu has not played a huge amount of rugby. In fact, he has already played more minutes in this campaign than either of the previous two seasons. His opportunities have been limited in part by injury, a hand surgery ruling him out for a chunk of last season, as well as a red card ban picked up against his old club Sale. The strength in depth in Wasps’ back division has also limited his chances. The injury to former All Black centre Malakai Fekitoa has really given Odogwu the chance to prove his worth this campaign. When Wasps head coach Lee Blackett was looking to fill the considerable Fekitoa-sized hole in his midfield, he turned to Odogwu. Granted, at 5ft9in Odogwu is actually a rather different shape to Fekitoa - but he has the ability to bring the same gainline success. Wasps tend to operate with a ball player at inside centre, Jimmy Gopperth or Ryan Mills if either are available, meaning that one of their 13’s key functions is to make hard yards. Odogwu has thrived at this. His footwork puts defenders off balance while his ludicrous lower-body strength and low centre of gravity mean that opposition players often fail to complete the tackle. Odogwu uses leg drive through the contact to pick up extra metres and even to throw off the tackler completely on occasion. The main advantage of shifting the Leicester academy product inside is the number of touches on the ball he gets. However, as the data illustrates, there is a trade off. Although Odogwu gets his hands on the ball more when at centre, he tends to get in less space compared to on the wing. His metres made by carry, clean breaks and defenders beaten all suffer. But in a team blessed with back three options, Odogwu’s ability to still create attacking opportunities and make progress from the midfield is hugely valuable. Following Odogwu’s man of the match performance against Bath from the wing, Blackett still stated that he felt Odogwu’s best position going forward would be outside centre. As that stats illustrate, he is an absolute handful irrespective of position. He certainly has the out and out pace to be a winger. Odogwu managed to get back to England international Ruaridh McConnochie on Friday night, showing off his top-end speed. Interestingly, when the stats are analysed, Odogwu’s current campaign is very similar in many facets to his final year at Sale. Although he did not get much game time that season, Odogwu certainly earmarked himself as a player who could do special things. When Sale got him on the pitch, they were extremely effective at getting the ball in his hands. Last year, that simply did not happen. Prompted by the shift in position, and the increased confidence Odogwu has in himself and the faith his team-mates now have in him, the same is now happening at Wasps. Another element of Odogwu’s game that is particularly impressive, for an until recently back three player, is his turnover work. Throughout the last three years, Odogwu has been a consistent nuisance at the breakdown. If you look at his body shape (short, stocky, powerful lower half) then it makes sense that he is a pain to remove at the ruck. Another string to his bow. Odogwu qualifies to play for Italy, through a grandparent, as well as England. His recent form would suggest that his selection would be an absolute no-brainer for Franco Smith, should Odogwu want to take that route. The story of Jake Polledri is worth considering. He opted for Italy early in his career and has since become one of the world’s best ball-carriers. Polledri certainly could have won some England caps by now. England are blessed with plenty of talent on the wings, but the 13 shirt is less locked down. A long-term replacement, or rather an alternative, to Manu Tuilagi will be required although Ollie Lawrence is already being primed for that role. The staggering performances of Odogwu are unlikely to force him into Eddie Jones’ plans right now. He is still relatively inexperienced, especially in the midfield, needs to improve his defence and his work under the high ball. But, perhaps a couple of years down the line, if he can cement himself in Wasps' strongest line-up, Odogwu could come into consideration. After all, he has a game-breaking ability that few possess. Either way, it would be fantastic to see Odogwu on the biggest stage. International rugby needs more of these electrifying types of players.

Im kommenden Jahr startet die 15. Documenta. Die Kunstausstellung präsentiert sich anders als die stark kritisierte Vorgängerschau. Doch was genau Kunstbesucher 2022 in Kassel erwartet, bleibt nebulös. Kassel (dpa) - Verschränkte Hände, Seile und viel Farbe - seit Mitte Dezember ist die documenta 15 im Kasseler Stadtbild deutlich sichtbar. An der Fassade eines früheren Kaufhauses geben Logos und Schriftzüge einen Vorgeschmack auf die 15. Ausgabe der weltweit bedeutendsten Ausstellung für moderne Kunst. Das sogenannte Ruruhaus ist ein Standort der Schau im Jahr 2022 und soll bereits vorher Einblicke ermöglichen - wie zum Beispiel auf das visuelle Erscheinungsbild. Dabei könnte der Kontrast der farbenfrohen und freundlichen Logos der documenta fifteen - so der offizielle Name - im Vergleich zur vergangenen Schau nicht größer sein: Die documenta 14 präsentierte sich nüchtern in Schwarz-Weiß. Der große Unterschied passt zum angekündigten Neustart der documenta. Denn mit ihrer Schau im Jahr 2017 war sie künstlerisch und wirtschaftlich in die Krise geraten. Die documenta 14 hinterließ ein Defizit von 7,6 Millionen Euro, das Konzept wurde als zu didaktisch und schwer verständlich kritisiert. Es folgte der Umbau: Geschäftsführerin Annette Kulenkampff ging, Sabine Schormann wurde neue Generaldirektorin. Dass die künstlerische Leitung jeder Schau wechselt, ist documenta-Tradition. Dass mit der indonesischen Gruppe ruangrupa nun ein Künstlerkollektiv diese Aufgabe übernahm, sorgte aber für Aufsehen. Trotzdem stand 2020 auch die documenta im Schatten von Corona. Die Pandemie behinderte die Organisation der Schau gerade wegen ihrer internationalen Ausrichtung. «Das Jahr 2020 mit seinen erschwerten Bedingungen hat auch uns einiges an Umdenken abverlangt», sagt Generaldirektorin Schormann. Man sei inzwischen zu Profis in weltweiten digitalen Meetings geworden. Trotz der Bedingungen sei die Planungen der documenta fifteen große Schritte vorangekommen: Das Erscheinungsbild stehe, Kulturkollektive und Künstler seien an Bord, ein Großteil der Ausstellungsstandorte gesichert. Bekannt sind bisher das Museum Fridericianum, das Ruruhaus und die documenta-Halle. Von dort werde sich die Ausstellung unter anderem entlang des Flusses Fulda und in den von Industrie geprägten Osten der Stadt bewegen. Spekulationen über eine Verschiebung der Schau hat Schormann eine Absage erteilt. Daher laufen 2021 die Vorbereitungen ungebremst weiter: «Wenn Corona uns keinen Strich durch die Rechnung macht, werden wir die Riege der Künstler*innen komplett machen, die künstlerischen Projekte zur Umsetzung und die Website an den Start bringen, erste Publikationen entwickeln und mit dem Gruppen- und dann auch dem Individualvorverkauf beginnen», sagt die Generaldirektorin. Zudem werde sich das Ruruhaus weiter entwickeln, andere Veranstaltungen seien in Planung. Ein Geheimnis bleibt die Summe, die für die documenta fifteen zur Verfügung steht. Vor der vergangenen, defizitären Schau war das Budget auf 34 Millionen Euro beziffert worden. Der Aufsichtsratsvorsitzende, Kassels Oberbürgermeister Christian Geselle (SPD), versprach danach eine «auskömmliche Finanzierung». Schormann selbst antwortet auf die Frage nach dem Geld lediglich, dass es weiterhin beim avisierten Budget bleibe. Jörg Sperling vom documenta-Forum sieht keine komplette Abkehr von der Vergangenheit: «Zunächst scheint alles wie ein Jahr vor jeder documenta: Nichts ist vom künstlerischen Konzept erkennbar, keine Künstler*innen sind bekannt, kaum ein Ausstellungsort wirklich konkret benannt», sagt der Vorsitzende des Vereins, den documenta-Gründer Arnold Bode ins Leben rief und der die Ausstellungen kritisch begleitet. Sperling sieht dennoch Unterschiede zu vergangenen Vorbereitungsjahren. Das Grundkonzept von ruangrupa basiere insbesondere auf Kommunikation, Diskurs und nachhaltigen Perspektiven für Kunst und Kultur. «Die Corona-Bedingungen erschweren die Realisierung dieses Konzeptes.» Es werde zwar oft von kreativen Lösungen gesprochen, aber eine Ausstellungsplanung sei nicht erkennbar. Es sei immer noch die Frage offen, welche künstlerischen Produktionen der weltweiten Kunstszene das Grundkonzept erlebbar machten. Dennoch freue er sich auf die Konkretisierung der «lumbung»-Aktivitäten. Das indonesische Wort bezeichnet eine Reisscheune, in der überschüssige Ernte zum Wohle der Gemeinschaft gelagert wird. Diese Idee will ruangrupa zur Grundlage der documenta machen. Sperling hofft, dass die nächste documenta am Ende aber auch eine klassische Ausstellung wird: «Ich wünsche mir, dass die documenta fifteen keine Digitalschwemme wird, sondern die originale Begegnung mit Kunst aus aller Welt zulässt.» Die nächste documenta findet vom 18. Juni 2022 bis 25. September 2022 in Kassel statt. © dpa-infocom, dpa:210106-99-913350/3

It is absurd that Twitter is making decisions about who gets to wield power

It is now clearer than it has ever been that social media companies are not just innocent vectors for the posts and messages they carry
It is now clearer than it has ever been that social media companies are not just innocent vectors for the posts and messages they carry The biggest social media companies are private - and yet of course they are not. They contribute to the public sphere - they more or less are the public sphere now. And since the rise of coffee shops and newspapers in 18th century Europe, the public sphere has shaped politics and politics affects us all. Some put the French Revolution down to the rise of the public sphere. On top of that, social media companies are public infrastructure, like sewers. Facebook makes this argument: internet connectivity around the world (which often happens to mean Facebook connectivity) boosts GDP, so it is an unqualified good. But that is misleading because it is easy to say, with sewers, the more the better, which is obviously not true of social media companies. Where they are concerned, the argument is not purely about scale. It is also about content. As the old line goes about sewers: what you get out of them depends on what you put into them. And if social media companies are full of unchecked rabble rousing conspiracies, it is perfectly possible that GDP can be raised for some, while rights and norms are smashed for others. It is perfectly possible that digital ID and e-payment systems are rolled out in India or Kenya, easing and improving life for millions while also freezing out minorities or irritants to the state. Democracy, though, is about ensuring equal rights for all. These points - content and scale - are the key issues to consider when thinking about regulation of tech companies. On content, it is now clearer than it has ever been that social media companies are not just innocent vectors for the posts and messages they carry. They are publishers. They have been happy to assume the profits of the publishers, now it is time they assume the responsibilities. The obvious target of this is Section 230, the rule buried in a piece of US legislation from 1996 that protects “platforms” like Facebook from the legal responsibility for content that publishers bear. The very reason it was included was to ensure that new companies were not stifled at birth by the requirement to monitor vast amounts of information that they could not possibly meet. Ironically, it is today the very reason that, a quarter of a century on, the behemoths those fledgling digital companies have become are delighted at the prospect of much greater regulation - indeed have been calling for it themselves. Now that they are huge, they can afford the burden of regulation which startups that might one day become rivals cannot. Regulation entrenches incumbent dominance. If Section 230 is repealed, Facebook and its rivals will monitor toxic behaviour more, and tighter user terms. But new companies might struggle to operate at all. Which brings us to scale: is Facebook just too big? Should it be broken up, separated from Messenger and Instagram? In wondering whether there is legislative appetite to take on tech companies generally, it is worth asking whether it is a question of now or never. After all, who is more powerful, country or company? Facebook’s 2.7bn users put its “population” at roughly the same as India and China - the world’s two largest countries - combined. Twitter, with 300m+ is more modest - about the size of America. Apple’s market cap, at $2.2trn, is greater than the GDP of all but seven nations. The top seven companies by market cap are all tech companies. Facebook, in sixth, is worth $760bn, well above the GDP of Saudi Arabia and Switzerland, powerhouses of oil and banking (so 20th century). When it comes to power, nation states are now competing with tech companies to be the primary mechanism of service delivery. Covid has seen tech lurch into health. What happens when they deliver education and defence too. Through YouTube and AI you could argue they are already integral to both. No one watching the calamity at the Capitol, slack-jawed in horror, can wonder any longer if the ephemeral, digital world truly does have real world consequences. The Rohingya, in Myanmar, found out the hard way two years ago. There, where Facebook essentially is the internet, the site was used by the military to stoke hatred and a campaign of mass rape and killing that the UN says may have amounted to genocide. In 1994, radio stations whipped up the rage that led to 600,000 killings in the Rwandan genocide. Who doubts such incitement today would be online? All of which makes it all the more absurd and outrageous that individuals, from Mark Zuckerberg to Twitter’s Jack Dorsey, are making decisions on the hoof about who should and should not get to wield the power of their platforms. This is not a freedom of speech issue. It is a concentration of power issue. Zuckerberg and Dorsey have been more or less making it up as they go along, creating rules for user behaviour, then bending them depending on how important (“newsworthy” in their lingo, those users are). Public figures who should have been held more accountable for their actions and words than the rest of us have been held less accountable. The standards for them have been lower than for you and me. That is the perverse, outrageous flipping of the normal rules of ethics and behaviour that has come to reign online, where what matters is not accuracy but attention. Now Trump is on the way out, of course, he is not so newsworthy, so he can be safely ditched. It is breathtakingly cynical. But we have all been complicit. We have all felt vanity’s shallow warmth on our backs when our posts or tweets are liked and shared. We are all suckers for the admiration and applause of like-minded souls. Untrammelled, untested and unregulated we have hurtled into a wholesale reformation of the public sphere unparalleled since the invention of the printing press. Its effects and consequences will make the French Revolution seem small.

Wie heißt die größte Insel der Welt? Die Antwort auf diese Frage war am Dienstagabend entscheidend. Berlin (dpa) - Joko Winterscheidt hat seinen Job als Gastgeber der ProSieben-Sendung «Stiehl mir nicht die Show» verteidigt. Im Finale der am Dienstagabend ausgestrahlten Show gewann er gegen die Kandidatin Palina Rojinski. Winterscheidt beantwortete die Frage nach der größten Insel der Welt zutreffend mit «Grönland». Rojinski hatte auf Australien getippt und sich anschließend von dem 41-Jährigen bluffen lassen, er liege falsch. Dadurch ging das Finale vorzeitig zu Ende. Zuvor waren nacheinander Elyas M’Barek, Wildcard-Gewinnerin Luisa und Moderatoren-Legende Thomas Gottschalk in der Show ausgeschieden. Die Stars hatten trotz langjähriger Showerfahrung teils bemerkenswerte Blackouts. So verlegte Gottschalk den Tag der deutschen Wiedervereinigung auf den 1. Oktober 1989, M’Barek auf den 27. November 1989. Rojinski und die Kölnerin Luisa wussten die korrekte Antwort: 3. Oktober 1990. Gottschalk holte immer wieder alte Anekdoten hervor, etwa wie Miley Cyrus sein Haus in den USA gekauft hatte: «Ich hatte so ein Gästehaus gegenüber, das hatte ich von einem Typen gekauft, der wegen seiner Allergien in die Wüste gezogen ist. (...) Dann wollte ich es verkaufen. Dann kam irgendein «Golden Girl Trust». Und da hab ich gedacht, da hat irgendein Vater für seine Tochter das gekauft.» Es habe sich herausgestellt, dass Cyrus es erworben habe. Insgesamt fünf Mal tritt Winterscheidt gegen die drei Prominenten sowie einen Zuschauer oder eine Zuschauerin an. Die Kandidaten wollen ihm buchstäblich die Show stehlen. In den insgesamt neun Spielrunden pro Sendung entscheidet sich zunächst, wer gegen den Showmaster im Finale antritt. Verliert dort der Gastgeber Winterscheidt, wird der Gewinner zum Quizshow-Moderator der nächsten Ausgabe und kann die Show nach seinem Gutdünken umkrempeln. Währenddessen muss Joko dann als Kandidat darum kämpfen, seine eigene Show zurückzugewinnen. © dpa-infocom, dpa:210106-99-913335/2 Ältere Mitteilung

Samsun'un 19 Mayıs ilçesinde motosikletin çarpması sonucu hayatını kaybeden 17 yaşındaki bisiklet sporcusu gencin ailesi, motosiklet sürücüsünün tutuksuz yargılanmak üzere serbest bırakılmasına tepki gösterdi. 25 Haziran 2020 akşamı Kumcağız Mahallesi Suat Kılıç Bulvarı'nda meydana gelen kazada, ilçe merkezine seyir halinde olan Mehmet Akif E. idaresindeki 55 JP 548 plakalı motosiklet, karşı yönden gelen 17 yaşındaki Nuri Can Beyazpınar'ın kullandığı bisikletle çarpışmıştı. Kazada bisiklet sürücüsü hayatını kaybetmiş, motosiklet sürücüsü Mehmet Akif E. ve motosiklette yolcu olarak bulunan İbrahim yaralanmıştı. Motosiklet sürücüsü Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi'ndeki tedavisinin tamamlanmasının ardından 2020 Ağustos ayında tutuklanarak Bafra T Tipi Kapalı Cezaevi'ne gönderilmişti. Tutuklu sanık 12 Kasım 2020 tarihinde, telekonferansla katıldığı mahkeme tarafından tutuksuz yargılanmak üzere serbest bırakılmıştı. 21 Ocak 2021 tarihinde yapılacak olan 2. mahkeme öncesi 19 Mayıs ilçesine gelen ailesi ve bisiklet kulübü arkadaşları Nuri Can için adalet istedi. Polis ekipleri, kaza yerinde yaptıkları incelemede 'motosiklet sürücüsünün şerit ihlali yaparak kendi şeridinde seyir eden bisiklete çarparak kazaya mahal verdiğini', ayrıca kazada hayatını kaybeden gencin üzerinde kırmızı ve siyah renkli fosforlu elbise olduğunu ve kask kullandığını, motosiklet sürücü ve yolcuda ise kask bulunmadığını belirlemişti. Kaza sonrası Bafra cumhuriyet savcısının başlattığı soruşturma kapsamında motosiklet sürücüsünün Ruh Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Hastanesi'nde yapılan idrar tahlilinde 'uyuşturucu maddeye rastlandığı' kaydedilmişti. "Motosiklet sürücüsünün yüzde yüz suçlu çıktı" "Oğlumun katilinin ceza almasını istiyorum" diyen Nurican Beyazpınar'ın babası Metin Beyazpınar, "Adli Tıp Kurumuna itiraz ettiler. Tekrardan sonuçlar geldi. Motosiklet sürücüsü yüzde yüz suçlu çıktı. Oğlumun katili şu anda dışarıda serbest geziyor. İlk mahkemede serbest kaldı. Hakimlere, savcılara sesleniyorum. Oğlumun katilinin gereken cezaya çarptırılmasını istiyorum. Benim de içim rahat etsin, başkalarının da içi rahat etsin. Bu benim başıma gelen herkesin başına gelebilir. Sesimi duyun. Benim başıma gelen başkasının başın gelmesin. Uyuşturucu müptelalarının cezalarını almalarını istiyorum" dedi. Acılı anne Yasemin Beyazpınar ise, "Benim oğlum böyle bir ölümü hak etmemişti. Uyuşturucu ve hız tutkusu yüzünden benim oğlum bugün hayatta değil. O yüzden, suçlu en ağır şekilde cezalandırılsın. Böyle bir trafik kazasında hem uyuşturucu hem de hiçbir trafik kuralına uymadan bir kaza gerçekleştiriyor. Hapis cezası istiyoruz. Benim hayallerim, umutlarım şimdi toprağın altında. Geceleri uyuyamıyoruz. İçimiz kan ağlıyor. İnşallah beni avunduracak bir karar çıkar da biz de rahata kavuşuruz" diye konuştu. Bafra Bisiklet Topluluğu Başkanı Volkan Karaman, “Nuri Can, topluluğumuzun üyesiydi. Topluluğumuzun üyesi olması dışında sürekli antrenman yaptığımız, sürekli birlikte vakit geçirdiğimiz, gülüp eğlendiğimiz, birlikte birçok başarıya imza attığımız kardeşimizdi. Bizler bisikletçiler olarak sadece Bafra değil, Türkiye’nin her tarafından birçok bisiklet gurupları bize mesaj atarak, arayarak başsağlığı dileklerinde bulunmuşlardı. Biz aslında bütün bisikletçilerin mahkemede beklentisini görmek istiyoruz" şeklinde konuştu. Nuri Can Beyazpınar’ın amcası Yılmaz Beyazrpınar ise, "Benim yeğenim 17 yaşında bir bisiklet sporcusuydu. Eğer adalet mülkün temeli ise yeğenim için biz adalet istiyoruz” açıklamasında bulundu. Türkiye Bisikletçiler Derneği Bafra Temsilcisi Hülya Yangın Ertekin de, "Nuri Can'ın acısını yüreğimizde hissediyoruz. Adaletin yerini bulacağına ve suçlulara gereken cezanın verileceğine inanıyoruz" ifadelerini kullandı. Davanın ikinci duruşması 21 Ocak Perşembe günü yapılacak. İLGİLİ HABERLER

Auf einen Schlag Millionär: Im Pandemiejahr 2020 konnten sich darüber mehr Lottospieler freuen als 2019. Annahmestellen geschlossen? Immer mehr Tipper weichen ins Internet aus. Und einer gewinnt bei Lotto immer: der Staat. Koblenz (dpa) - Deutschlands Lottogesellschaften sind mitten in der Corona-Krise selbst im Glück: Die Spieleinsätze und die Zahl der Millionengewinne haben sich 2020 gesteigert. Den höchsten Lottogewinn von je 90 Millionen Euro kassierten zwei Eurojackpot-Spieler aus Nordrhein-Westfalen und Bayern im Februar und Mai, wie der Deutsche Lotto- und Totoblock (DLTB) am Dienstag in Koblenz mitteilte. Den höchsten Gewinn im Lottoklassiker «6 aus 49» mit fast 42,6 Millionen Euro ergatterte im Oktober eine Baden-Württembergerin. Zu den Topgewinnern gehörte auch ein Tipper aus Sachsen-Anhalt im Mai mit 6,37 Millionen Euro im Spiel 77. 90 Millionen Euro für Eurojackpot-Knacker? Im Februar 2020 sagte der Mathematiker Norbert Herrmann dazu: «Jeder Mensch hat im Schnitt 100.00 Haare. Stellen Sie sich vor, Sie müssten sich unter 100 Leuten für ein Haar entscheiden. Und genau das Haar müsste dann auch noch in der Lotto-Maschine gezogen werden. So wenig wahrscheinlich ist das.» Im Jahr 2020 zählten die Lottogesellschaften bundesweit 145 Millionengewinne - 20 mehr als 2019. Die meisten flossen ins bevölkerungsreichste Bundesland Nordrhein-Westfalen (31), gefolgt von Baden-Württemberg (29) und Bayern (17). Null Millionengewinne gab es in Bremen, einen in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern und zwei in Hamburg. In diesen Bundesländern leben weniger Menschen. 1094 Mal wurden 2020 in Deutschland Lottogewinne von 100 000 Euro und mehr an Glückspilze überwiesen. Das waren 121 mehr als im Vorjahr. Lotto verbuchte 2020 trotz coronabedingt vorübergehender Schließungen vieler der rund 21 500 Annahmestellen auch höhere Spieleinsätze. Sie stiegen im Vergleich zum Vorjahr bundesweit um 8,8 Prozent auf gut 7,9 Milliarden Euro. «Die 16 deutschen Landeslotteriegesellschaften haben sich während der Corona-Pandemie 2020 als krisenfest und verlässlich erwiesen», erklärte der Chef der derzeit im DLTB federführenden Gesellschaft Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz, Jürgen Häfner. Die Schließungen von Läden und Kiosken hätten viele Tipper «zum Beispiel durch die Abgabe von Mehrwochenscheinen sowie die Nutzung unserer Online-Angebote kompensiert». Fast 913 Millionen Euro setzten Tipper 2020 über die Webseiten und Apps der Lottogesellschaften ein - eine Steigerung von mehr als 40 Prozent im Vergleich zu 2019. Warum mehr Millionengewinne im Krisenjahr 2020? DLTB-Sprecher Clemens Buch sagte: «Statt Corona war es einfach Fortuna». Also auch Glück. Das bereits 1955 eingeführte «6 aus 49» hatte zuletzt geschwächelt, aber jüngst wieder zugelegt. 3,98 Milliarden Euro Spieleinsatz gab es hier 2020 - damit bleibt der Glücksspielklassiker mit Abstand Deutschlands beliebteste Lotterie. Seit dem 23. September 2020 kostet ein Tippfeld für die Ziehungen mittwochs und samstags 1,20 Euro statt wie zuvor 1 Euro. Der DLTB erläuterte: «Vor allem der klassische Sechser ohne Superzahl ist jetzt deutlich häufiger millionenschwer.» Die in 17 Staaten angebotene Lotterie Eurojackpot verbuchte 2020 in Deutschland ein Einsatzplus von 18 Prozent auf mehr als 1,47 Milliarden Euro. Häfner sprach hier mit Blick auf das schwächere Jahr 2019 von normalen Wellenlinien: «Wenn der Jackpot von 90 Millionen Euro über mehrere Wochen stehen bleibt, dann steigt der Spieleinsatz deutlich an.» Das habe sich 2020 wieder gezeigt. Einer gewinnt bei Lotto immer: der Staat. Die Landeshaushalte kassierten 2020 mehr als 3,1 Milliarden Euro an Steuern und Abgaben - etwa für Wohlfahrt, Sport, Kultur, Denkmalpflege und Umweltschutz. 2019 hatte sich diese Summe auf 2,9 Milliarden Euro belaufen. © dpa-infocom, dpa:210106-99-913735/2 Informationen zur Spielsucht

How Britain’s theatres and venues are at the heart of the vaccine rollout

The great NHS drive is under way, and the UK‘s arts industries are throwing their doors open to lead the charge to the pandemic‘s end
The great NHS drive is under way, and the UK‘s arts industries are throwing their doors open to lead the charge to the pandemic‘s end With space needed to roll out the vaccine as quickly as possible, and theatres around Britain standing empty, it seems entirely logical to use arts venues as vaccination centres. Speaking to The Telegraph recently, Andrew Lloyd Webber heartily endorsed the idea. Happily, several theatres have indeed joined forces with the NHS to bring the vaccine to their communities. The Lights in Andover, Hampshire, was already known to the local clinical commissioning group as a venue for blood-donor sessions. “We usually hold about 20 a year,” explains director Heather Whittham. Following about a month of discussions with five local GP practices, it was agreed that The Lights would become a central base for them to administer the vaccine, beginning on December 22. “We’re quite lucky – we have a large arena space,” says Whittham. “In the daytime, it’s a café area, and in the evening, it’s audience seating and a foyer for the café and bar, so it was just a case of clearing that out so they could set up the stations for vaccinations.” All medical equipment, including vaccine storage facilities, was brought in by NHS staff. Once people have received the vaccine, they have to wait for 15 minutes before leaving. “So we put on music in the background, which is soothing for those who are anxious. In December, we were rocking out to Christmas tunes! We also have volunteers who help put people at their ease. In some cases, they haven’t left the house since March.” At The Lights, both the Pfizer-BioNTech and Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines are being used, with the aim of administering “around 400 a day,” says Whittham. “People stick to their time slots, so there hasn’t been too much queueing. Some days it’s staff from one surgery, some days it’s two. We’re also used as a base for storing the vaccine that they’re taking to administer at care homes nearby.” Whittham notes the theatre’s customers were “incredibly supportive” of its use as a vaccine centre. “We pride ourselves on just not being a theatre, but a community hub as well. It’s another way to consolidate our position. And, in the long term, of course we’d love to get audiences coming back. “We’ve also had thousands of people coming through the door who’ve never been here, even though we’ve been around for 14 years. Hopefully, they’ll return once we’re putting on shows again. We get lots of big comedy names doing preview shows.” Ivo Graham is due in May and Sindhu Vee in June. The theatre has been closed since March last year, though they were able to host some dance classes and did open-air shows last summer. “Theatres are well equipped for something like the vaccine programme because in our industry, people throw themselves into things – it’s a passion. We provide good customer service, because otherwise visitors don’t return, and we’re adaptable. “Without this vaccine, we’re not going to have people coming back through our doors. At least doing this gives us hope that we can get back to normal.” That’s also the hope of Janet Heald, events and front-of-house manager for Wyre Theatres in Lancashire. Thornton Little Theatre was first approached in September last year to provide space for a flu vaccination programme for three local GP surgeries, beginning with the over-65s. “Since that was so successful, they then approached us just before Christmas to do the same for the Pfizer vaccine.” Those three surgeries cover, she notes, about “33,000 patients”. The Thornton Little Theatre is ideal, says Heald, because “it’s spacious, it’s on a good bus route, and we’ve got great parking facilities.” Covid vaccinations began on January 7, concentrating on the over-80s. “We were able to do a full set-up for them, using our existing polling station booths and partitions – it was quite a creative solution! And we’ve had staff on hand from our front-of-house, cleaning and technical teams.” Since the news broke, they’ve had a lot of calls from people eager to get the vaccine, so Weald is keen to stress that “you need to wait to be contacted by your GP”. Just turning up won’t get you the jab. The theatre is normally used by lots of community groups, but that hasn’t been possible with social distancing. So, Weald says she’s delighted that they’ve been able to open their doors again and help out. “It’s nice that most of our patients are very familiar with the venue, which is reassuring for them. We recognise lots of our regular patrons, and they know our team. “We’re treating the vaccine rollout like any new show or event: as soon as we’ve done it once, we’re organised and we’re ready to go.” Hertford Theatre, in Hertfordshire, has also risen to the challenge, says its director Rhys Thomas. Their spacious auditorium had already been used to host blood donations and flu vaccines, so they became a site for the Pfizer vaccine in December. “And I believe the Oxford one is coming on track soon.” It began with a trial week, Thomas recalls, “to set up things like security for the vaccine. We worked closely with local police and checked all our alarm systems. We also made sure that the team could access everything, while staying socially distanced.” Now, the NHS team is administering vaccinations Monday to Saturday, from 8am to 8pm, and Thomas is proud to be a part of the effort. “We always played a part in the community that extends far beyond putting on shows and films, and we’re interested in exploring ways that we can communicate what we do.” In fact, the venue had already linked those two offerings – arts and health – when doing flu vaccinations, says Thomas. “We did a little offer, ‘Flu and a Film’! Anything we can do to encourage people to engage with the building is positive.” Hertford Theatre volunteers usually work on events like chatter tables, “which address isolation. That social engagement is now supporting the vaccine delivery, and it’s all about making people feel happier, healthier, safer and proud to be part of this community effort.” Thomas notes that their staff and volunteers receive training in areas like dementia-friendly communication, “which, given the demographic of people currently coming in, has proved to be invaluable. It’s about sensitivity, as well as experience and expertise. Plus we know how to strategically get people in and out of the building with social distancing already.” Thomas would love to see more theatres used as vaccination centres. “It keeps venues on people’s radars, keeps staff on the payroll, and keeps the blood coursing through the veins of the building. And it’s important that theatres play their part – those that can. Obviously, some older buildings are quite compact internally or have bolted-down seating.” But for those viable logistically, “it’s a great opportunity. Theatres can be deployed in all sorts of unusual ways, and it’s fantastic to see our resources used as effectively as possible – for the good of us all.”

Sollten die Demokraten auch die zweite Stichwahl gewinnen, hätten sie de facto die Mehrheit im Senat. Sie dominieren bereits das Abgeordnetenhaus, die andere Kongresskammer. Die zweite Stichwahl wurde allerdings zur Zitterpartie. Dort lag am Mittwochmorgen der Demokrat Jon Ossoff knapp vor dem republikanischen Amtsinhaber David Perdue. Nach Auszählung von rund 4,4 Millionen oder rund 98 Prozent der Stimmen lag Perdue am Dienstagmorgen um 9527 Stimmen vorne. Erwartet wurde, dass der Vorsprung zunimmt, weil die verbleibenden Stimmen eher aus demokratisch geprägten Bezirken kommen. Das Ergebnis dieser Stichwahl könnte sich allerdings verzögern: In Georgia hat der unterlegene Kandidat das Recht, eine Neuauszählung einzufordern, wenn sich der Abstand der Stimmenzahl zum Sieger auf 0,5 Prozent oder weniger beläuft. Perdues Wahlkampfteam teilte mit, für ein faires Ergebnis würden «Zeit und Transparenz» benötigt. Man werde alle rechtlichen Schritte unternehmen, um sicherzustellen, dass alle Stimmen ordnungsgemäß gezählt worden seien. Der abgewählte US-Präsident Donald Trump hatte für Perdue und Loeffler geworben. Warnock bedankte sich bereits kurz vor den Siegesmeldungen der US-Medien bei den Wählern. «Ich fühle mich geehrt durch das Vertrauen, das Sie in mich gesetzt haben. Und ich verspreche Ihnen heute Abend: Ich werde in den Senat gehen, um für ganz Georgia zu arbeiten. Egal, für wen Sie bei dieser Wahl, in diesem Moment der amerikanischen Geschichte Ihre Stimme abgegeben haben.» Vom Ausgang der beiden Stichwahlen hängt ab, ob die Demokraten doch noch die Kontrolle über den Senat erringen können. Den Republikanern des abgewählten Präsidenten Donald Trump reicht ein weiterer Sitz, um die Mehrheit in der Parlamentskammer knapp zu behalten. Die Demokraten müssen beide Sitze erobern, um de facto die Kontrolle zu erlangen. Dann käme es in der Kammer zu einem Patt, das die künftige US-Vizepräsidentin Kamala Harris - die zugleich Präsidentin des Senats sein wird - mit ihrer Stimme auflösen könnte. Der Senat bestätigt unter anderem Kandidaten des Präsidenten für hohe Regierungsposten oder das Oberste Gericht und kann Gesetzesvorhaben blockieren. Der künftige Präsident Biden könnte seine Ziele erheblich leichter verwirklichen, wenn die Demokraten nicht nur im Repräsentantenhaus, sondern auch im Senat eine Mehrheit hätten. Biden soll am 20. Januar vereidigt werden. Zwei Wochen vor der Vereidigung steht am Mittwoch der wohl letzte große Showdown im Gezerre um den Ausgang der Präsidentenwahl an. Bei einer gemeinsamen Sitzung von Repräsentantenhaus und Senat (ab 19 Uhr MEZ) soll das Wahlergebnis endgültig bestätigt werden. Zahlreiche republikanische Abgeordnete und Senatoren planen aber - angetrieben durch unbelegte Betrugsbehauptungen Trumps - eine Störaktion, die für parteiinterne Verwerfungen sorgt und die formalen Abläufe erheblich in die Länge ziehen dürfte. Trump hatte die Präsidentenwahl Anfang November mit deutlichem Abstand gegen seinen demokratischen Herausforderer Biden verloren. Trump weigert sich aber, seine Niederlage einzugestehen. Er behauptet, er sei durch massiven Betrug um den Sieg gebracht worden. Weder Trump noch seine Anwälte legten stichhaltige Beweise dafür vor. Dutzende Klagen des Trump-Lagers wurden bislang von Gerichten abgeschmettert, auch vom Obersten US-Gericht. Die Wahlleute aus den Bundesstaaten haben Bidens klaren Sieg bestätigt. Der Demokrat kam auf 306 der 538 Stimmen - 36 mehr als erforderlich. Für Trump stimmten 232 Wahlleute. Im formalen Nach-Wahl-Prozedere der USA ist vorgeschrieben, dass die Ergebnisse aus den einzelnen Bundesstaaten im Kongress verlesen, gezählt und am Ende bestätigt werden müssen. Dann ist amtlich, wer die Wahl gewonnen hat. Es ist der Endpunkt eines langen formalen Aktes vor der Vereidigung eines neuen Präsidenten. Üblicherweise ist es eine Formalie. Diesmal sind jedoch massive Verzögerungen und Turbulenzen zu erwarten. Republikaner aus beiden Kongresskammern haben angekündigt, bei der Prozedur Einspruch gegen Ergebnisse einzelner Staaten einzulegen. Aus dem Repräsentantenhaus könnten sich nach internen Schätzungen mehr als 100 Abgeordnete beteiligen, sekundiert von mindestens 13 Republikanern aus dem Senat. Jeder Einspruch muss schriftlich eingereicht werden - von mindestens einem Abgeordneten aus dem Repräsentantenhaus und mindestens einem Senator. Damit lässt sich erzwingen, dass sich beide Kongresskammern zu getrennten Sitzungen zurückziehen müssen, um die Einwände zu debattieren und am Ende abzustimmen, ob sie diesen folgen oder nicht. Das Prozedere könnte sich deshalb nach deutscher Zeit bis weit in den Donnerstag ziehen. Die Störaktion hat keine Aussicht darauf, etwas am Wahlausgang zu ändern. Beide Kongresskammern müssten einem Einspruch gegen ein Ergebnis zustimmen, was angesichts der Mehrheit der Demokraten im Repräsentantenhaus als ausgeschlossen gilt. Die Aktion dürfte die Abläufe aber immens stören und viel Aufmerksamkeit für Trumps unbelegte Betrugsbehauptungen schaffen. Parallel sind tagsüber Proteste von Trump-Anhängern in Washington geplant, bei denen sich der abgewählte Präsident direkt an seine Unterstützer wenden will. Die Demokraten kritisierten die geplante Störaktion im Kongress als zutiefst undemokratisch. Aber auch in der Republikanischen Partei stößt das Vorhaben auf viel Kritik. Die republikanische Führung im Senat hatte sich ausdrücklich dagegen ausgesprochen. Diverse hochrangige Republikaner werteten das Vorhaben als gefährlich. Geleitet wird die Sitzung vom amtierenden US-Vizepräsidenten Mike Pence. Trump erhöhte den Druck auf seinen Stellvertreter, in dieser Rolle einzugreifen, um das Ergebnis doch noch zu kippen. «Wenn Vizepräsident Mike Pence sich für uns einsetzt, werden wir die Präsidentschaft gewinnen», schrieb Trump in der Nacht zu Mittwoch auf Twitter. Bereits zuvor hatte Trump behauptet, der Vizepräsident habe die Befugnis, auf «betrügerische» Weise ausgewählte Wahlleute abzulehnen. Das Gesetz sieht für Pence bei der Zusammenkunft jedoch lediglich eine zeremonielle Rolle vor. © dpa-infocom, dpa:210106-99-912313/10 Offizielle Informationen zum Wahltag Elections Project zu Frühwählern Ergebnisse bei CNN Ergebnisse bei Fox News Ansprache Warnock

Die Bezahldienste Alipay und WeChat Pay sowie weitere chinesische Apps sollen in den USA verboten werden. Der scheidende US-Präsident Trump begründete den Schritt mit der Gefahr von Spionage. Mit seiner Attacke auf TikTok scheiterte Donald Trump. In den letzten Tagen seiner Amtszeit versucht es der scheidende US-Präsident nun mit Verboten für weitere Apps aus China. Unter den insgesamt acht Anwendungen, die aus dem US-Markt gedrängt werden sollen, sind die Bezahldienste Alipay und WeChat Pay. Trump untersagte am Dienstag per Erlass Geschäfte mit den Apps. Die Trump-Regierung begründete den Schritt damit, dass die Programme für Spionagezwecke missbraucht werden könnten. Nutzerdaten könnten demnach an die Regierung in Peking weitergeleitet werden. Die Trump-Regierung sieht deshalb in diesen Apps eine Gefahr für die »nationale Sicherheit«. Die Apps seien für das Verbot ausgewählt worden, weil sie in hoher Zahl in den USA heruntergeladen würden, sagte ein ranghoher Regierungsmitarbeiter. Dies bringe das Risiko mit sich, dass Dutzende Millionen Nutzerdaten missbraucht werden könnten. Es ist an Biden, die Order auszuführen oder aufzuheben Das Verbot soll allerdings erst mit dem üblichen Aufschub von 45 Tagen in Kraft treten, wenn bereits der neue Präsident Joe Biden im Amt ist. Die Machtübergabe in Washington ist für den 20. Januar vorgesehen. Der Regierungsmitarbeiter sagte, das Verbot der Apps sei nicht mit der »potenziellen« Biden-Regierung besprochen worden. Trump erkennt seine Wahlniederlage gegen Biden bislang nicht an. Biden wirft ihm vor, die Übergabe der Amtsgeschäfte an die neue Regierung zu behindern. Trump hatte seit dem Sommer versucht, durch Verbote einen Verkauf zumindest des US-Geschäfts der populären Video-App Tiktok an amerikanische Unternehmen zu erzwingen. Doch erst torpedierte die chinesische Regierung die Gespräche mit Verkaufsbeschränkungen für entsprechende Software. Und dann befanden auch US-Richter, dass Trumps Regierung keine ausreichende rechtliche Grundlage für ihr Vorgehen gehabt habe, die TikTok-Verbote ruhen. Zu den weiteren nun betroffenen Apps gehören die Scan-Anwendung CamScanner, der Chatdienst Tencent QQ, die Video-App VMate und die Bürosoftware WPS Office. US-Handelsminister Wilbur Ross teilte mit, er habe die Umsetzung von Trumps Erlass angeordnet.

Wegen der Corona-Pandemie hat Außenminister Maas Europa mehr als vier Monate nicht mehr verlassen. Jetzt bricht er trotz Lockdowns nach Jordanien auf. Es geht um ein Thema, das ihm besonders wichtig ist. Berlin (dpa) - Bundesaußenminister Heiko Maas hat sich besorgt über die Rückschläge für die atomare Abrüstung in den letzten Jahren gezeigt. «Ich halte diesen Trend für äußerst gefährlich», sagte der SPD-Politiker vor seinem Abflug nach Jordanien, wo er am Mittwoch an einer Abrüstungskonferenz mit 15 anderen Ländern teilnimmt. «Abrüstung und eine nuklearwaffenfreie Welt sind und bleiben für Deutschland Kernanliegen - nicht zuletzt auch deshalb, weil die Sicherheit Europas hiervon abhängt.» Nach dem Ende des Kalten Krieges hatte die Zahl der Atomwaffen weltweit zwar zunächst drastisch abgenommen, inzwischen wächst die nukleare Bedrohung aber wieder. 2019 platzte der Vertrag über das Verbot landgestützter atomarer Mittelstreckenraketen zwischen den USA und Russland. Auch die Zukunft eines zweiten zentralen Abrüstungsvertrags zwischen beiden Ländern ist ungewiss: Am 5. Februar läuft das Abkommen über die Reduzierung strategischer Atomwaffen aus, eine Einigung über eine Verlängerung steht noch aus. Zudem werden bestehende Atomwaffen-Arsenale modernisiert und es wächst die Gefahr, dass neue Atommächte entstehen. So steht das Abkommen zur Verhinderung iranischer Nuklearwaffen auf der Kippe, seitdem die USA unter Präsident Donald Trump ausgestiegen sind. Sollte Teheran nach der Atombombe greifen, könnte das einen nuklearen Rüstungswettlauf in der Region auslösen. Maas betonte, dass dieser Kurs geändert und man «wieder in die Spur effektiver nuklearer Rüstungskontrolle und Abrüstung zurückfinden» müsse. Zu diesem Zweck wurde 2019 die sogenannte Stockholm-Initiative gegründet. An dem Treffen in Amman nehmen neben Maas nur die Außenminister Jordaniens und Schwedens physisch teil. Vertreter der anderen 13 Länder werden per Video zugeschaltet. Deutschland und Schweden haben als Ausrichter der ersten beiden Treffen eine besondere Rolle in der Gruppe. Weitere Mitglieder sind Argentinien, Äthiopien, Finnland, Kanada, Kasachstan, Indonesien, Japan, Neuseeland, die Niederlande, Norwegen, die Schweiz, Spanien und Südkorea. Für Maas ist es die erste Reise in ein Land außerhalb Europas seit mehr als vier Monaten. Danach war er wegen der Corona-Pandemie nur noch wenige Male innerhalb Europas unterwegs. © dpa-infocom, dpa:210106-99-913339/2 AA zum letzten virtuellen Treffen der Stockholm Initiative

Chief medic calms concerns about vaccine

Australia's chief medical officer has sought to ease concerns about the effectiveness of a leading coronavirus vaccine. Some doctors are concerned that the vaccine developed by Oxford University and AstraZeneca may not be enough to achieve herd immunity. The drug has an efficacy rate of between 62 and 90 per cent in clinical trials, which is well below both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. The federal government has ordered 54 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine and plans to give it to most Australians, pending approval by the Therapeutic Goods Administration. Some medical professionals want the planned rollout suspended and are urging the government to pivot to other options. But Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly is standing by the strategy, which has been in planning for many months. "The great advantage of the AstraZeneca vaccine is it is being made here in Australia. It will be available as soon as the TGA gives its tick, which we expect that it will in February," Professor Kelly told the ABC. "We're not the only country in the world that has AstraZeneca ordered. AstraZeneca is one of the mainstays of the global response and remains so. "The AstraZeneca vaccine is effective, it is safe and it's a high quality vaccine, but those are the things that the TGA will be looking at with their full approval coming very soon." Australia has supply agreements in place for the AstraZeneca, Pfizer and Novavax vaccines. The federal government has not struck a deal for Johnson and Johnson or Moderna, whose drug is easier to distribute than the Pfizer vaccine. Labor health spokesman Chris Bowen is urging the government to secure more deals. He is concerned about the potential risks if AstraZeneca fails to pass health and safety checks. "That's why the federal government should have been months ago spreading that risk more thinly with more deals," Mr Bowen told ABC radio on Wednesday.

Corona hat die tägliche Belastung der Pflegekräfte in Altenheimen weiter erhöht. Dennoch könnte es im neuen Jahr für viele einen Schritt nach vorne geben - beim Einkommen.
Corona hat die tägliche Belastung der Pflegekräfte in Altenheimen weiter erhöht. Dennoch könnte es im neuen Jahr für viele einen Schritt nach vorne geben - beim Einkommen. Berlin (dpa) - Die Altenpflegerinnen und -pfleger in Deutschland können auf bundesweit einheitliche und in vielen Fällen höhere Bezahlung hoffen. Im neuen Jahr schlage die «Stunde der Wahrheit», sagte der Vorsitzende der Dienstleistungsgewerkschaft Verdi, Frank Werneke, der Deutschen Presse-Agentur in Berlin. Dann würden die Voraussetzungen geschaffen, dass ein bereits ausgehandelter Tarifvertrag für die Altenpflege von der Bundesregierung wie angekündigt allgemeinverbindlich erklärt werde. Der Vertrag sehe «deutliche Steigerungen für die Einkommen von Pflegekräften» vor. In drei Schritten sollen laut dem Tarifvertrag die Mindestentgelte angehoben werden. Examinierte Altenpflegekräfte würden ab Januar 2023 mindestens 18,50 Euro pro Stunde erhalten. Pflegehilfskräfte mit ein- bis zweijähriger Ausbildung kämen auf wenigstens 15 Euro. Verdi hatte den Abschluss im September mit der Bundesvereinigung der Arbeitgeber in der Pflegebranche geschlossen, in der Anbieter der freien Wohlfahrtspflege zusammengeschlossen sind. Bisher bestehen in Ost- und Westdeutschland unterschiedliche Mindestlöhne für Pflegehilfskräfte, die bis September auf einheitlich 12,55 Euro pro Stunde steigen sollen. Zum 1. Juli 2021 soll für Pflegefachkräfte zudem ein einheitlicher Mindestlohn von 15 Euro eingeführt werden. «Der Tarifvertrag ist derzeit in der Konsultation mit den Kirchen, die im Bereich der Pflege eine entscheidende Rolle spielen», teilte Werneke mit. Tatsächlich befassen sich derzeit die Arbeitsrechtlichen Kommissionen von Diakonie und des Caritasverbandes damit. In ihnen sind jeweils Dienstgeber und Dienstnehmer vertreten, was Arbeitgebern und -nehmern entspricht. Bei der Diakonie wollte man sich auf Anfrage wegen des laufenden Verfahren nicht äußern. Arbeitsminister Hubertus Heil (SPD) hatte zuletzt im November bekräftigt, einen Tarifvertrag Pflege auf ganz Deutschland erstrecken zu wollen, wenn ein Antrag vorgelegt werde und Voraussetzungen erfüllt seien. Heil: «Eine Einigung ist in Reichweite.» Die privaten Pflegeheimträger und Betreiber von Pflegediensten wehren sich vehement gegen einen solchen Tarifvertrag. Sie sprechen es dem relativ kleinen Verband, mit dem Verdi verhandelt hatte, ab, für die Branche sprechen zu können. Werneke sagte, die private Pflegelobby laufe Sturm gegen eine Erklärung der Allgemeinverbindlichkeit. «Die Regierung muss also Farbe bekennen», sagte er. Das gelte auch für Gesundheitsminister Jens Spahn (CDU). «Und sie muss handeln.» Die Situation vieler Beschäftigten in der Altenpflege ist seit Jahren wegen Überlastung, Personalmangels, steigender Ansprüche und fehlender Wertschätzung angespannt. Spahn hatte bereits im vergangenen Jahr eingeräumt, dass die Lage unzureichend sei - und durch die Corona-Pandemie weiter verschärft werde. Seit 2019 stehen zwar zusätzliche Mittel der gesetzlichen und privaten Krankenversicherung für 13.000 neue Stellen für medizinische Behandlungspflege in Altenheimen bereit. Pflegeverbände hatten das angesichts einer viel größeren Zahl an fehlenden Pflegekräften aber als viel zu wenig kritisiert. Doch nur ein Bruchteil der finanzierten Stellen konnte bisher besetzt werden. Bei der Finanzierung der Pflege droht unterdessen ein neues Milliardenloch. So steht die Pflegeversicherung in diesem Jahr vor einem Defizit von 2,5 Milliarden Euro. Der GKV-Spitzenverband prognostiziert Einnahmen von 50,3 Milliarden und Ausgaben von 52,8 Milliarden Euro für dieses Jahr, wie der Verband der dpa mitteilte. Das «Handelsblatt» hatte zuerst darüber berichtet. Einer neuerlichen Beitragserhöhung entgehen die Arbeitnehmer nach einer Anhebung des Pflegebeitrags vor zwei Jahren somit wohl nur knapp. Der stellvertretende Vorsitzende des Kassenverbands, Gernot Kiefer, sagte der dpa: «Sofern sich die Konjunktur bis zur Jahresmitte erholt, bin ich optimistisch, dass wir in diesem Jahr knapp an einer Beitragserhöhung vorbeikommen.» Kiefer forderte den Bund auf, Steuergeld in die Pflegekassen zu pumpen. Er sagte, wenn die Sozialabgaben wie angekündigt die 40-Prozent-Grenze nicht überschreiten sollen, müsse im kommenden Jahr ein nennenswerter und dauerhafter Steuerzuschuss für die Pflegeversicherung fließen. © dpa-infocom, dpa:210106-99-913569/3 Konzertierte Aktion Pflege Konzertierte Aktion Pflege 2 Arbeitsrechtliche Kommissionen der Diakonie Pflegeversicherung 1 Pflegeversicherung 2 Verdi zu Tarifvertrag Pflege Pflegemindestlohn
