Steve Bannon Mocks Elon Musk In H-1B Visa War: 'Toddler'
PLAINVILLE — After suffering two straight losses to Bloomfield 54-14 on Thursday, Nov. 7, and 35-17 to East Catholic last week, the Plainville Blue Devils football team will look to return to the win column on Senior Night. Plainville will return home to host the Farmington River Hawks on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., looking to retain the Canal Cup and improve to 5-5. Plainville has had an up-and-down season. The Blue Devils started the season 0-2, but they won three of their next four games before losing their last two. Meanwhile, Farmington will enter the game with a 1-8 record and is looking to snap its five-game losing streak. Plainville head coach Tim Shea said the team must limit its mistakes to bounce back after suffering two tough losses. “We need to cut down on our opponents' big plays and minimize some mistakes,” Shea said. “There’s a lot of times during the year that we’ve been our own worst enemy with mistakes and turnovers.” Shea added that the team needs to establish the run to be successful against Farmington. He also added the team needs to get off the field on third down since Farmington is a team that likes to throw the ball around. While Farmington has struggled all season, Shea said to throw the records out the window, given that it is a rivalry game. With Farmington being a team that likes to crowd the box on defense, Shea said the team needs to execute in space. “We know it's going to be a good game,” Shea said. “They have good size up front, and their linebackers are very aggressive. The game always comes down to what you have up front. If you can protect the quarterback, you’re going to be successful. It will be a great challenge, and this is what Thanksgiving football is all about.” Against Bloomfield, the game was competitive throughout the first quarter, with Plainfield winning. However, it didn’t remain competitive the rest of the way, as the game got away from Plainville. Although Plainville didn’t win against Bloomfield or East Catholic, Shea said the team made progress in its last two games. “We’re playing much harder right now, and we’re playing complete games,” Shea said. “There’s no giving up and there’s a lot of fight. “Hopefully we can carry that forward for one more game this year. I’m hoping to send our nine seniors out right. I want our younger kids to realize what this game means and play for them to start right for next year.”.Firms commit over $50M investment The Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) says it has recorded significant achievements in its drive to position Nigeria as a leading investment destination in Africa. Through strategic partnerships and targeted investment promotion efforts, the commission said that global firms have committed over $50 million to projects in key sectors of the Nigerian economy. One of the outcomes is the partnership with Afreximbank to attract investments by leveraging the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and the bank’s financing opportunities. The collaboration, according to the commission, aims to channel investments into agriculture, manufacturing, ICT, healthcare, and renewable energy. Shettima Barma, deputy director and head of the Investment Promotion Department, speaking during a media engagement in Abuja, said that global firms have shown strong interest in Nigeria’s investment opportunities. Among the key commitments are IDEMIA, a French smart identity solutions company, committing $50 million to deploy biometric identification systems for international passports, national ID cards, and voter registration. He noted that Woodcross Resources, a Ugandan-based mining company, is planning a 150-200 metric ton tin mining refinery in Nigeria in partnership with New Frontier Development and Protex Healthcare Ltd, a Belgian firm, establishing a burn and dialysis center in Abuja, valued at over N300 million. As part of its outreach efforts, he stated that the NIPC has profiled over 50 credible projects using its Investment Opportunity Profiling (IOP) form, more than 100 Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects were sourced, with 34 curated into a Deal Book disseminated at international business and investment forums. Barma also said that the NIPC has profiled 15 industries, including agriculture, manufacturing, renewable energy, ICT, and creative industries, into comprehensive factsheets to guide investors. He noted that in collaboration with the EU, GIZ, and the Ministry of Power, the commission launched the One Stop Investment Platform for Renewable Energy, a resource hub designed to attract investments in sustainable energy projects. “A French company, IDEMIA smart identity company has emphasized strong commitment investing in Nigeria to deploy a biometric identification system for international passport, national ID card, voter registration etc. This investment is within the range of $50m. “Woodcross Resources, a Ugandan-based mining company has indicated willingness to setup a 150- 200MTS Tin Mining Refinery in Nigeria. The company visited NIPC with their Nigerian Partner New Frontier Development; “A Belgian company, Protex Healthcare Ltd, is setting up a burn and dialysis center worth over N300m. Land has already been acquired in Abuja; “Established an African Invest Platform with a Japanese company for investor matchmaking. First round of meeting was held with NACCIMA and MAN; “Signed an agreement with Afreximbank to attract investments into Nigeria leveraging on AfCFTA and the financing sources from the Bank. Organizing a webinar last week in February 2025. Facilitating meetings with Brazilian firms to export fertilizer and poultry from Nigeria “Nigeria may not be the leading investment destination globally, but in Africa, we stand out due to our population, raw materials, attractive incentives, and skilled workforce,” he said Aisha Rimi, executive secretary/CEO of NIPC, said looking ahead, the commission is pivoting towards innovation and sustainability as key drivers of economic growth. Rimi said that the commission plans to attract investments in sectors like fintech, agri-tech, and renewable energy, with incentives to encourage technology-driven businesses to establish operations in Nigeria. She stated further that the NIPC will collaborate with investment bodies focused on green initiatives to attract socially responsible investors. “We aim to position Nigeria as a hub for innovation and technology investments, while also prioritizing eco-friendly projects that align with global sustainability goals. We are laying the groundwork for Nigeria to emerge as a global leader in technology and sustainability investments,” Rimi explained. The NIPC boss also said that the commission is committed to strengthening human capital as part of its long-term strategy. According to her, through partnerships with international donor agencies, the commission has launched capacity-building programs for local entrepreneurs, equipping them with skills to compete on both national and global stages. To retain existing investors, Rimi said that the commission has strengthened its investor relations strategy. Through regular feedback mechanisms and the Nigerian Investment Certification Programme for States (NICPS), “NIPC has partnered with state governments to create investor-friendly environments tailored to their unique competitive advantages.”
UN Nuclear Watchdog Passes Resolution Against Iran, Demands CooperationLONG BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 5, 2024-- Rocket Lab USA, Inc. (Nasdaq: RKLB) (“Rocket Lab” or “the Company”), a global leader in launch services and space systems, today announced a launch window for an upcoming Electron mission to deploy the latest satellite in Synspective’s growing Earth observation constellation. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241205672685/en/ A Rocket Lab Electron rocket launches for Synspective (Photo: Business Wire) The “Owl The Way Up” mission is scheduled to launch from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in Mahia, New Zealand during a launch window that opens on December 18 th NZDT (December 17 UTC). The mission will deploy a single StriX satellite to orbit for Synspective. The mission will be the sixth in a total of 16 launches booked on Electron for Synspective, a Japanese Earth observation company operating a constellation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites designed to deliver imagery that can detect millimetre-level changes to the Earth’s surface from space. Rocket Lab first launched for Synspective in December 2020 and has been the sole launch provider for Synspective’s constellation to date. Rocket Lab founder and CEO, Sir Peter Beck, says: “As the sole launch provider for Synspective to date, we’ve developed an enduring relationship with their team built on trust and reliability across multiple Electron missions. By flying as the dedicated customer, rather than ridesharing, we’ve put Synspective in control of their launch schedule and mission parameters, affording them a level of control over their mission not traditionally afforded to small satellite operators. We’re looking forward to placing another StriX satellite in orbit and supporting Synspective’s vision to enable persistent monitoring of our planet to support disaster relief, agricultural development, maritime domain awareness and much more.” Rocket Lab has launched 14 missions to date in 2024, besting the Company’s previous annual launch record of 10 missions achieved in 2023. Rocket Lab Images and Videos: www.flickr.com/photos/rocketlab/ About Synspective’s constellation: Synspective's small SAR satellites, StriX, are equipped with a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensor, which can observe the Earth's surface in any weather condition day or night. Not affected by clouds or rain, SAR is suitable for persistent monitoring of disasters and detailed changes to secure critical infrastructure and other facilities. Example use cases include: detecting anomalies in road, rail, energy and other infrastructure, resulting in lower maintenance costs and accident risk, monitoring crop growth conditions and analyzing soil and vegetation health to help reduce costs and increase efficiency for farmers, detecting illegal logging and fishing in the most remote parts of the world, providing rapid damage assessment after flooding, landslides and volcanic eruptions, as well as risk assessment for land subsidence, enabling the persistent monitoring of maritime traffic, border activities and other potential security threats, and advances maritime domain awareness, analyzing tree cover to calculate CO2 absorption and carbon credits.
