CNS Mouths Bush Self-Aggrandizment on Environment Topic: CNSNews.com
A Jan. 7 CNSNews.com article by Fred Lucas uncritically repeats President Bush's claim that his term as president marks "an eight-year commitment to strong environmental protection and conservation ... contrary to the conventional wisdom of many in the news media."
Lucas makes no apparent attempt to contact anyone in "the news media" or any non-conservative environmentalist for their views on Bush's assertion. Rather, he quotes Bush's White House press secretary Dana Perino echoed Bush's claim. He also quotes an "environmental expert and resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank," and a "senior legal policy analyst for the conservative Heritage Foundation" criticizing a specific Bush order as unnecessary and legally questionable, but they offer no counter to Bush's claims about his environmental record.
Criticism of Bush from the right is hardly a substitute for criticism of Bush from the left, and it hardly makes for a factually balanced article.
Porter, WND Still Clinging to Obama Birth Certificate Fantasy Topic: WorldNetDaily
WorldNetDaily columnist Janet Folger Porter is still desperately clinging to the hate-driven, fraudulent fantasy that Barack Obama is not an American citizen. From her Jan. 6 column:
What if an imposter from another country ran for the presidency and won?
What if the media blocked any news of his birthplace and citizenship?
What if the media censorship even blocked paid advertising that tried to expose it?
What if no one had the courage to challenge or verify it?
What if he was inaugurated illegally?
What if the military had to answer to a commander in chief who was illegitimate?
What if every law he signed was invalid?
What if every appointment he made was improper?
What if it all happened on our watch?
Write to the Supreme Court and ask them to do what they took an oath to do: make sure the Constitution is being upheld.
Porter has yet to address the concerns we've raised that she may be misusing the resources of her group Faith2Action for her own personal anti-Obama crusade, either here or at the Faith2Action website.
Meanwhile, Bob Unruh uncritically quotes Porter's rant in a Jan. 6 WND article insisting that "The lingering questions continue to leave a cloud over the impending presidency of a man whose relatives have reported he was born in Kenya and who has decided, for whatever reason, not to release a bona fide copy of his original birth certificate in its complete form."
Of course, neither Unruh nor Porter mention the fact that WND itself declared the birth certificate to be "authentic," adding that the lawsuit on the issue filed by Philip Berg "relies on discredited claims."
Kincaid Ignores AIM's Embrace of Luntz's Linguistics Topic: Accuracy in Media
A Jan. 4 Accuracy in Media column by Cliff Kincaid accuses Barack Obama of telling "lies" by calling his stimulus plan the "American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan" when it is "mainly designed to bail out state and local governments that have already spent too much taxpayer money." Kincaid cites Republican pollster Frank Luntz complimenting Obama's use of the term and adding, "Our media are not going to fall for this ploy, are they?"
So, with this criticism, you'd think that Kincaid and AIM would eschew all linguistic fanciness, right? Wrong.
Luntz himself is a noted political linguist; as The New Yorker's Hendrik Hertzberg reported in 2006, Luntz was one of the right-wingers who has recently pushed the idea of inaccurately calling the Democratic Party the "Democrat Party." And indeed, there are numerous references to "Democrat Party" on the AIM website.
Hertzberg also noted that Luntz also promoted the term "death tax" for the estate tax. Several references to "death tax" can be found at AIM as well.
If Kincaid is criticizing Luntz's praise of Obama's linguistics as an embrace of "dishonest rhetoric," shouldn't Kincaid and AIM refrain from embracing Luntz's own arguably dishonest linguistics?
Regarding Rick Warren's decision to give the prayer at Barack Obama's inauguration, assume for a moment that we had just elected a man to be president who, during the campaign, spoke to a rally of the Ku Klux Klan – all the while reassuring us how important his Christian faith is to him. Let's also assume that, during this rally, he told the assembled cone heads that he thinks America should return to the times when only white male landowners were allowed to vote.
The question is, could anyone in America be stupid enough to think that Rick Warren would give the invocation for this guy's inauguration?
On one hand, Obama needs someone who can give him cover with the Christian community. His goal is to hide from them the fact that he is a heretic and moral degenerate.
Newsmax Again Baselessly Claims Franken 'Vote Grab' Topic: Newsmax
A Jan. 5 Newsmax article by David Patten is headlined, "Franken's Coup: Anatomy of a Vote Grab," but Patten doesn't really provide that regarding the Minnesota Senate race. Instead, he uncritically repeats claims by the campaign of Al Franken's opponent, Norm Coleman, and other conservatives making various allegations about the race's recount and allows no one to respond.
This is the second time that Patten has baselessly accused Franken of a "vote grab."
As he has previously, Patten claimed that Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie "has been criticized for ties to the ACORN voter-registration organization the federal government is investigating for alleged vote fraud, as well as to left-wing billionaire George Soros." But that criticism is coming only from Patten and his right-wing fellow travelers -- as we've noted, those "ties," according to Patten's own reporting, are limited to getting endorsed by ACORN and taking a campaign donation from Soros. (Patten claimed this was evidence of "extensive ties.")
Patten quotes mostly Coleman campaign officials and right-wingers in his article, but does not permit anyone to respond to the claims they make. He also hides the true identity of one person he quotes, "Kevin Hassett of Bloomberg.com." In fact, Hassett is a senior fellow at the conservative American Enterprise Institute; Bloomberg merely published his commentary about the Minnesota Senate race.
Patten lets his anti-Franken bias show in other ways as well. He complained that the Minnesota canvassing board "deposed Coleman as the apparent winner" and that Coleman has been victimized by "a nightmarish electoral chronology."
NewsBusters Ignores Boss' Link to Domestic Terrorist Topic: NewsBusters
A Jan. 3 NewsBusters post by Tom Blumer criticizes the Huffington Post for allowing William Ayers to post there, asserting that "The mainstreaming of a domestic terrorist continues apace." Blumer goes on to complain that Ayers' HuffPo bio contains "no mention of his violent Weather Underground history."
If Blumer is so worried about the "mainstreaming of a domestic terrorist," he need not look farther than the organization that publishes his blog posts.
As we've detailed, the Media Research Center has given prominent roles to G. Gordon Liddy -- featured "acceptor" of awards at its annual awards banquet at least twice, judge for the awards at least three times, awards show guest numerous other times -- despite Liddy's record of planned domestic terrorism. The MRC has also whitewashed Liddy's 1994 remarks about how to kill a federal Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agent.
Blumer might want to ask MRC honcho Brent Bozell about his relationship with Liddy before criticizing Ayers any further.

WND Protects Coulter, Ignores Her Book's Errors Topic: WorldNetDaily
WorldNetDaily has promoted itself as the only place where one can purchase a copy of Ann Coulter's new book, "Guilty," autographed by the author.
Does that WND will protect Coulter at all costs and refuse to report the truth about the book? It appears so.
A Jan. 5 WND article uncritically repeats Matt Drudge's claim -- from anonymous sources that WND has given no indication that it has verified -- that Coulter has been banned from NBC "for life," despite also noting an on-the-record statement from NBC that Coulter was merely bumped from the "Today" show because the program was overbooked. Still, WND inserts this promo in the story: "Get the book that got Ann Coulter banned from NBC – it's autographed, now in stock and ready to ship!"
Meanwhile, Media Matters has documented numerous factual errors and inflammatory statements in "Guilty," which may have played a role in NBC giving the boot to Coulter. Yet WND makes no mention of this in this article.
WND's only other coverage of the book to date is a Dec. 30 fluff interview with Coulter by Drew Zahn uncritically repeating the book's claims and even Coulter's assertion that the first edition of the book will be a collector's item: "We crashed the book to get it out in time. ... There are a few typographical errors that will be corrected in the second printing; so you definitely want to get the first printing, because it will be like one of those stamps with the airplane upside down!"
Will Coulter use that second edition to correct any of those glaring factual errors and misleading claims? Don't expect WND to hold her accountable.
WND's Spiked-Story List Largely Bogus Topic: WorldNetDaily
WorldNetDaily has come out with its annual "Operation Spike" list of stories it claims "undeservedly 'spiked' by the establishment press." And as perusual, the list is largely comprised of misleading or bogus claims.
Unsurprisingly, given WND's derangedobsession with it, first place goes to "Charges that Barack Obama is not a natural born citizen of the U.S. and thus constitutionally ineligible to serve as president." Also unsurprisingly, WND fails to mention its own investigation of the issue, which concluded that the "certificate of live birth" released by the Obama campaign is "authentic" and that Philip Berg's lawsuit claiming that Obama is not a natural-born citizen "relies on discredited claims."
In second place was a "U.S. Senate committee report that hundreds of top scientists have testified they believe claims of man-caused global warming are fraudulent." But as we've noted, the vast majority of the "650 international experts" cited by WND -- from a report issued by Republican Sen. James Inhofe's press chief, Marc Morano -- are recycled from a previous report issued by Inhofe and Morano, a report that was criticized for including a number of people with no expertise in climate science (or science, period).
The article added that "more than 31,000 scientists, including more than 9,000 Ph.D.s, have signed a massive petition project that challenges belief in man-made global warming." But as we've detailed, that petition has been circulating for more than a decade, and the supporting materials sent by the petition's promoter, the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine, included an opinion piece that is misleadingly presented as an official-looking peer-reviewed paper.
Under the third-place entry, which asserts that the "true causes of the sub-prime mortgage meltdown ... point directly to the Democratic Party," WND repeats a claim made in September that the mortgage crisis can be blamed on "unsound, politically correct lending practices." As we noted at the time, the claim comes off as a tacit endorsement of the illegal practice of redlining -- a refusal to offer banking services and/or loans in certain areas, something that in practice is racist because those areas were invariably minority-dominated. WND misleadingly claimed that two former officials of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Franklin Raines and James Johnson, are "Barack Obama advisers." In fact, both Raines and the Obama campaign denied that Raines was an Obama adviser, and Johnson quit as an adviser last June.
In fourth place is "Obama's ties to terrorists and extremists" -- another WND obsession of the guilt-by-association kind -- cited as one example Rashid Khalidi, "the anti-Israel Palestinian professor." But WND fails to note that Khalidi also has ties to a group chaired by Obama's Republican opponent, John McCain.
In fifth place was "The campaigns of third-party presidential candidates, and Ron Paul's sensationally successful grass-roots campaign." But WND spiked that story too -- as we've noted, WND's coverage of third-party candidates was minimal at best during the 2008 campaign.
As we've previously noted, it seems that the stories on the "Operation Spike" list were spiked for a reason -- they're designed more to promote WND and Joseph Farah's personal political agenda (and his personal grudges and obsessions) than to advance the cause of actual journalism.
(P.S. Want more interesting awards? The Slanties are coming next week.)
Did you ever in your wildest dreams imagine seeing an article at the liberal website the Huffington Post that not only refuted the anthropogenic global warming myth, but also asked Nobel Laureate Al Gore to apologize for the climate hysteria he's caused?
No...neither did I.
In fact, as evidenced by the post Sheppard cites, the Huffington Post publishes a wide range of opinions (including ours). This is just another example of Sheppard professing shock at something that's not all that shocking.
By contrast, NewsBusters, the website for which Sheppard is an associate editor, publishes no opinions that diverge from conservative orthodoxy. Indeed, Sheppard himself has yet to acknowledge, let alone apologize for, the false and misleading claims he has promulgated about global warming.
While we were slacking off over the holidays, Richard Bartholomew has uncovered a few things that we missed over at WorldNetDaily:
-- First, Bartholomew points out that a Dec. 9 WND article promoted a "quarterly magazine of Christian history and biography called Leben," while failing to mention that its editor, Wayne Johnson, is a member of the WND board of directors, as we've noted. (Johnson is also a Rushdoony-ite Christian reconstructionist.) Nor does the article acknowledge that Leben is a WND advertiser, which raises the possibility, if not likelihood, that WND's fluffy "news article" is part of the ad deal. WND has alonghistory of presenting ads as news.
-- Second, Bartholomew notes WND's promotion of a "Mapping Shari’a in America" project that's so extreme that WND felt the need to tone down the group's anti-Muslim agenda. As Bartholomew adds, "when you need WND to make you sound less excessive you’re probably in trouble."
-- Third, Bartholomew details how a Dec. 31 WND article omits inconvenient facts, stating only that a gunman was "ranting about religion" when he shot and killed a manager of a Colorado ski resort who identified himself as Catholic, which allowed WND to portray the victim as a martyr for Christianity. In fact, reports by more legitimate news outlets state that the shooter had "declared his intent to convert non-Christians" and was reportedly heard to say, "I’m a Christian, and if you’re not a Christian I’m here to convert you." Thus, WND falsely suggested that the shooter was a deranged atheist when, in fact, he was apparantly a deranged Christian. (And remember, WND only recently conceded that Catholics are Christians.)
NewsBusters Misleads on Troop Deaths Topic: NewsBusters
A Jan. 2 NewsBusters post by Michael M. Bates promotes "the fact that last year homicides in Barack Obama's hometown of Chicago substantially exceeded the number of deaths of U.S. soldiers in Iraq," adding: 'If Iraq's a total failure, how does Obama view what's taking place in his own hometown?"
Bates' comparison is a misleading one. Raw numbers are misleading when plucked out of context; the death rate of a given population is the more meaningful number.
As Bates notes, approximately 314 U.S. soldiers were killed in Iraq in 2008, while there were 509 homicides in Chicago. But the population bases are vastly different -- there are approximately 140,000 soldiers in Iraq, but there are more than 2.8 million residents of Chicago. Therefore, a U.S. soldier is still several times more likely to get killed in Iraq than to be murdered in Chicago.
Bates is following the conservatively-correct line -- also followed by WorldNetDaily, Newsmax and CNSNews.com -- of tossing out statistically meaningless numbers to downplay the number of troop deaths in Iraq.
Newsmax, WND Promote Dubious Military Poll Topic: Newsmax
A Jan. 2 Newsmax article by Rick Pedraza promoted a "survey of more than 1,900 active-duty subscribers to Army Times, Air Force Times, Navy Times and Marine Corps Times newspapers" in which "six out of 10 active-duty service members said they "are uncertain or pessimistic about President-elect Barack Obama as the nation’s next commander in chief." While Pedraza noted that the poll's "responses are not representative of the opinions of the military as a whole, and that the survey group overall under-represents minorities, women and junior enlisted service members, and over-represents soldiers," that did not appear until the final paragraph of his article.
Indeed, as Media Matters points out, the publishers of the poll have admitted that it was based on voluntary responses by subscribers to Army Times Publishing Co. newspapers rather than a random statistical sample of service members, and that therefore no margin of error can be calculated for the poll. Newsmax is following Military Times' lead in promoting this poll as meaningful when it is not.
A Jan. 3 WorldNetDaily article on the poll similarly buried the fact that the poll is "a voluntary response poll and not a scientific, random sampling" and thus "the responses cannot be considered representative of the opinions of the military as a whole" -- but that didn't keep WND, like Newsmax, from spending the rest of the article pretending that the poll means something. But WND has a history of promoting bogus polls, so it's used to doing that -- never mind that it fails its readers by doing so.
WND Promotes More Bogus Polls As Accurate Topic: WorldNetDaily
For the second time in a month, WorldNetDaily is promoting an America Online poll about Barack Obama's birth certificate as meaningful despite the fact that it's not accurately reflective of actual American opinion on the issue.
While Bob Unruh's Dec. 31 article admits that the AOL poll is "unscientific," he does not explain (like fellow WND reporter Chelsea Schilling before him) that "unscientific" means that the poll cannot be taken as reflective of actual public opinion on the issue. Nevertheless, Unruh insists that the AOL poll -- which showed a majority agreeing with the idea that there is "any merit" to the largely right-wing alleged controversy about Obama's citizenship peddled by the likes of WND -- "suggests more and more people are having second thoughts about Barack Obama's eligibility to occupy the Oval Office."
Unruh also noted that "a recent WND poll showed "a full 97 percent of nearly 7,200 voters" said "no" to the question "Are you satisfied Obama is constitutionally eligible to assume the presidency?" But Unruh did not note that the WND poll, like the AOL poll, is unscientific and therefore useless as a gauge of opinion because participants are self-selecting and the poll is prone to being skewed (or "freeped") by like-minded activists.
Unsurprisingly, Unruh follows WND policy by refusing to acknowledge a WND report last August finding that the birth certificate released by Obama's campaign is "authentic" and that a lawsuit by Philip Berg on the issue -- a lawsuit noted by Unruh -- "relies on discredited claims."
A Dec. 31 Newsmax article by David Patten on the Al Franken-Norm Coleman Minnesota Senate race recount uncritically repeats a claim by Republican Sen. John Cornyn that Franken "is falsely declaring victory based on an artificial lead created on the back of the double counting of ballots," adding that "Minnesotans will not accept a recount in which some votes are counted twice, and I expect the Senate would have a problem seating a candidate who has not duly won an election."
Patten makes no attempt to explain the "double counting" issue -- perhaps because if he did, he'd have to reveal that it's not an issue at all.
As Nate Silver at fivethirtyeight.com explains, the issue is based around the fact that voters who cast ballots on election day that could not be read by the vote scanner were required to cast a duplicate ballot. But for the recount, the original ballots, not the duplicates, were counted. Coleman is claiming discrepancies between the original vote count and the recount as evidence that "double counting" was taking place. But as Silver points out:
Coleman's proposed remedy is that original ballots should be thrown out in any instances where they can't be paired with duplicates. If that remedy is adopted, then each of two things will happen: (#1) The state will prevent some ballots from being double-counted, and (#2) The state will also throw out some perfectly legal ballots. The process of identifying potential double-counted ballots is simply too imprecise to have the one thing without the other.
Can these two harms be weighed against one another? Suppose that if you rule on Coleman's behalf, you'll prevent 20 votes from being counted twice, but also throw out 20 legal votes. Most of us would probably not consider that to be a productive trade-off. But what if you could prevent 30 votes from being double-counted, in exchange for throwing out 10 legal ballots? Does the trade-off then become acceptable? Should you double-count 50 ballots if it prevents one voter from having his vote thrown out? Or, does the right of a voter to have his vote counted inherently trump that of the risk of counting some other voter's ballot twice?
By not explaining the duplicate ballot issue, Patten falsely suggests the issue has legitimacy when, in fact, it appears it's just a tactic by Coleman and fellow Republicans to forestall a Franken victory.

NBC unveiled a 2021-2022 fall season lineup that will feature a stack of “Law & Order” series on Thursdays — giving producer Dick Wolf two full nights of shows on the schedule — as the network courts audiences with dependable procedurals and nary a comedy until mid-season.
Thursday nights this fall mark a real turn from the days of the Peacock network’s must-see comedy blocks: Season 23 of “Law & Order: SVU” will be sandwiched by Wolf’s newest addition to the franchise, “Law & Order: For the Defense,” and a second season of Christopher Meloni spinoff “Law & Order: Organized Crime.” Wednesday nights feature Wolf’s “Chicago” lineup: “Chicago Med,” “Chicago Fire,” and “Chicago P.D.”
Despite the drama and reality heavy fall schedule, executives were quick to note, in a conference call with reporters, that its commitment to comedy has not waned. But still a major departure, as NBC has had comedies on its fall schedule since the days of the Truman administration.
“There’s obviously a long history and legacy of comedies that NBC — we want to honor that,” said Susan Rovner, chairman of entertainment content at NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “We love our comedies, and we do want to give them the best platform for success. We do believe holding them for mid-season and using the platforms of the Olympics and the Super Bowl is going to do that.”
Next week’s upfronts, in which major TV networks will show off their fall lineup for advertisers, mark the first breath the industry has been able to take as the nation begins to emerge from the deadly COVID-19 pandemic. NBC, which kicks off three days of network schedule presentations on Monday, is betting on the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, delayed a year by the pandemic, to give its comedy “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” a big post-Games platform over the summer, but that largely depends on whether the massive global sporting event will take place at all.
“We’re really excited to have the Olympics and and I do believe that ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ will be leading out of the Olympics,” said Frances Berwick, chairman of entertainment networks at NBCUniversal Television and Streaming, indicating that the network would be responsive to change. “If the last year has taught us anything, we can be incredibly facile about moving our schedule around to adapt to changing situations.”
After “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” in the summer, the rest of its comedy lineup won’t be back until midseason, with Justin Spitzer’s new series “American Auto” and Phil Augusta Jackson and Dan Goor’s “Grand Crew” in addition to returning shows “Kenan,” “Mr. Mayor” and “Young Rock.”
Notably, the upcoming NBC season will only grant viewers one cycle of “The Voice,” and the sixth and final season of “This Is Us” will premiere mid-season for the first time, giving the drama’s final episodes an uninterrupted run. As for series that are on the bubble — namely “Debris,” “Ellen’s Game of Games,” “Good Girls,” “Manifest,” and “Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist” — NBC is still deciding their fates.

- Ather Energy teases the upcoming Ather 450S electric scooter with over 100km range and a lower price point.
- Will begin accepting bookings for the Ather 450S in July, with the launch date yet to be announced.
- Indian Government enforces stricter implementation of the FAME II subsidy, impacting the pricing of Ather Energy’s electric scooters.
- Ather 450S will feature a 3 kWh battery pack, a top speed of 90 km/h, and an IDC range of up to 115 kilometers.
Electric vehicles are already in talk all over the World, And Here Bengaluru startup Ather Energy is aiming to capitalize on the trend with their newest electric scooter. Ather 450S promises an attractive price point and an impressive range of over 100 km on one charge, enough to take most riders well into the day before needing to recharge. The Ather 450S will start taking bookings in July, but no date has been set for its launch. With the Ather 450S, Ather Energy is understanding the demand and helping to make electric vehicles more accessible than ever before.
Government’s Stricter FAME II Subsidy Implementation and Price Hikes
In an effort to implement the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles (FAME) II subsidy, the government has enforced stricter regulations, significantly reducing the incentive cap. This has had an immediate impact on companies already operating in the market. Ola Electric has already declared a price increase due to the new regulations and now Ather Energy has also jumped on the bandwagon. Ather Energy, the premium electric scooter company has decided to raise prices on the Ather 450X.
Ather Energy Introduces Ather 450S: Performance-Centric Electric Mobility for Wider Audience
Ather 450S is the new addition and not only is it performance based but also budget-friendly at Rs 129,999 (state subsidy excluded) .The 3 kWh battery pack of this scooter provides a 115 km range on Indian Driving Conditions. Topping off these features is the scooters’s top speed of 90 kmph. This Ather 450S aims to attract commuters who are looking for a more sustainable and eco-friendly version of the 125-cc performance internal combustion engine (ICE) scooters.

Ather 450S: A Differentiated Entry-Level Variant
Ather 450S scooter teaser is also launched. Enthusiasts of the brand across India are speculating about what to expect when the scooter is officially unveiled. According to the teaser, it looks like the forthcoming Ather 450S will get a major facelift, at least from the front apron. There may be other changes in design too; however, the styling is likely to remain similar to its elder sibling the 450X, while for the battery, it is speculated that it may feature the 3 kWh battery from the discontinued 450 Plus. Meanwhile, what is unclear is what features the new 450S may carry. Chances are the scooter may come with some features missing from the top model, as is usual with many other midsized and budget models.
Market Launch and Expected Features
Ather Energy has confirmed that the Ather 450S will be hitting the market in August and Bookings for the scooter will open up in July with deliveries beginning the following month. The 450S is set to feature a more compact dashboard compared to its predecessor, the 450X. It appears that the revamp will include a downscaled touchscreen system. Additionally, the scooter is expected to sport more basic mirror stems than the sturdier and pricier variety found on the 450X.
FAME II Subsidy Impact on Ather Scooters
The impact of the recently instated FAME II subsidy revision has felt by Ather Energy who have made the necessary adjustments to their scooter prices accordingly. Now, possible riders of the flagship Ather 450X can get their hands on the scooter for Rs 145,000 (ex-showroom Bangalore), while the 450X with Pro Pack will be available for Rs 165,000 (ex-showroom Bangalore). It should be noted that these prices reflect the reduced incentives of Rs 32,000 which is a consequence of the updated FAME II norms.
Key Specifications of Ather 450S and Impact on Ather 450X
It will reportedly share a lot of similarities with the 450X including the powerful, permanent magnet motor and outputs. The top-speed of the 450S will be 90 kmph, and range of upto 115 km, while the real-world range is expected to be between 80 to 90 km. With the recent revision in FAME II subsidies, the total incentives on the 450X have decreased by Rs 32,000, making it more expensive. The price of the top-of-the-line 450X has gone up by Rs 8,000 and is now valued at Rs 1.48 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), while the base model has experienced a price hike of Rs 30,000 and is now at Rs 1.28 lakh (ex-showroom).
Connectivity and Booking Details
This scooter will soon benefit from a new connectivity package, which provides features such as navigation and Bluetooth connectivity. However, it is not yet known whether this package will be included as standard in the scooter or available as an optional extra at an additional cost. Nevertheless, those interested in buying the scooter can start reserving theirs in July via one of the Ather Experience Centres across the country or through the company’s official website.
Ather Energy’s Commitment to Electric Mobility
Tarun Mehta, the co-founder and CEO of Ather Energy, expressed his thoughts regarding the successful launch of the much-awaited Ather 450S. He spoke on how the introduction of the new model would have the potential to draw in a bigger customer base and deliver a level of safety, assurance and quality that is known to be provided by all Ather models. He also added that the company is resolute in providing its support to the customers, in the wake of the reduced subsidy, to further popularise and hasten the adoption of electric vehicles in India.
Electric mobility market in India could get major boost with Ather Energy’s launch of the 450S scooter. This performance-centric, environment-friendly ride offers commuters a convenient and sustainable means of transportation at an attractive cost. With a superior range and top speed, the Ather 450S makes electric scooters more accessible to the masses. Unfortunately, changes in the FAME II subsidies have caused the price of the Ather 450X to increase and reduced the total incentives available. Despite this, Ather Energy remains dedicated to offering their customers the best and continuing to promote electric vehicles throughout the country.

The Masked Singer viewers appear to have worked out Badger - finally.
ITV1 viewers have been tuning in each Saturday night to catch the latest edition of the eye-catching game show.
Sausage, Badger, Robin and Harlequin are left competing on The Masked Singer, alongside Dragon, with a double elimination set to come this week.
Over the weeks, we have heard clues from Badger - who many have tipped to win the entire thing.
And nobody seemed sure of who it was - until now.
Ex-Strictly Come Dancing star Kevin Clifton was tipped by bookmakers and became a The Masked Singer favourite, but the biker clues left many commenting it could be Carl Fogarty.
Ben Shephard has also been tipped, as has Ne-yo, after the 'Because of You' Kelly Clarkson song clue two weeks ago.
Now, though, eagle-eyed viewers have drawn a connection between the Badger clues and James Blunt.
Badger gave a mysterious clue to audiences alluding to the fact that he had collected "medals".
"There's more than one type of studio this badger is familiar with," the contestant added, continuing: "Just look at all my awards."
Medals were then held up to the camera - and viewers correctly pointed out James Blunt was a reconnaissance officer in the Life Guards regiment of the British Army.
One person posted: “Badger is James Blunt for sure. Every clue points to him; medals and the military, motorbikes, boarding school...
"Anonymous was the intro to his album, he did Chemistry A-Level, did a ‘virtual’ concert, is a poet/songwriter, a great musician."

JACKSON, MO (KFVS) - The City of Jackson's annual Concrete Street and Sidewalk Repair Project has been moved back to Tuesday, June 11.
Work will begin on East Main Street and will be performed by Cement Finishing, Inc. out of Perryville, Mo.
Road improvements include over 3,500 square yards of concrete repair along East Main Street, Lexington Drive, Sappington Drive, Old Cape Road, Cathy Drive, Carolyn Drive, Odus Drive, Wedgewood Drive, Palmer Drive, Watson Drive, St. Andrews Drive, St. Andrews Court and Old Hickory Drive.
According to the city, the project completion will depend on the weather but is expected in September 2013. Progress updates will periodically be posted on the city's website.
Roads will be restricted to one-lane traffic between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. while work is being performed. Signs will be posted notifying drivers of work in these areas, and the public is asked to restrict use to local traffic only.


In the past, prime ministers have either rejected or accepted a governor's advice. They have even convened midnight cabinet meetings to consider a governor's report for the dismissal of a duly elected government. But the Gujral-led United Front (UF) Government obviously believes in discriminatory application of constitutional provisions when it comes to dismissal of state governments run by friends and not foes.
Two weeks after Gujarat Governor Krishna Pal Singh's recommendation for imposing President's rule in Gujarat, the concerned file has not even moved from the desk of the junior flunky in the Union Home Ministry. In the meanwhile, illegitimate Dilip Parikh continues to enjoy both the perks and powers of a lame-duck Government.
Though Singh's latest move is motivated less by his concern for providing better governance and more by his greed to grab power through the back door, he deserves a definite reply from the Union Government and President K.R. Narayanan.
But Rashtrapati Bhavan, inexplicably, has maintained a silence over this grave administrative lapse. By keeping the Gujarat governor on tenterhooks for weeks, the Gujral Government has become an active player in the further destruction of the institution of governor.
It immensely suits both Parikh and Gujral to maintain status quo in the state till the assembly elections. While Parikh can influence the bureaucracy during the polls, Gujral can hope to strike a deal with Shankersinh Vaghela after the Lok Sabha elections.
Gujral's admirers, however, have begun to apply an ideological gloss to this serious constitutional deviation. According to them, Gujral has chosen to ignore the governor's intervention because the UF's constituents are opposed to any application of Article 356 in any state. Moreover, they feel that heavens would not fall if a duly elected government is installed after the assembly elections scheduled to be held by the end of February.
But their contentions are contrary to the past behaviour of the UF Government itself. During its 14-month rule it chose to dismiss a state government in Gujarat and was prevented from dismissing yet another in Uttar Pradesh. In fact, in the case of Uttar Pradesh, Governor Ramesh Bhandari's reports were being faxed on an hourly basis to the prime minister's house so that the Cabinet could peruse them throughout the night.
Gujral's ostrich-like approach is not confined to Gujarat only. In case of members of his own council of ministers, he hesitates to accept their resignations. For example, he was forced by his UF constituents to drop three ministers belonging to Laloo Yadav's Rashtriya Janata Dal.
But when they resigned following Laloo's orders, the prime minister was reluctant to forward them to the President for their acceptance. At the fag end of his tenure, Gujral seems to be scrupulously following the dictum live and let live.

Over this past week the government has sought to bury negative stories about the Sydney Transport network and its future development. The government has shelved the purchase of new ferries for the Parramatta River and have delayed the release of the business case for Sydney Metro West.
Documents released by the government show that funding for replacements for the 18 oldest ferries in the Sydney Ferry fleet is one of the most major funding pressure of Transport for NSW and would have an estimated cost of at least $120 million.
As part of these plans the government sought expression of interest in September 2017 for four new ferries suitable for trips along the Parramatta River. These ferries would have carried 150-200 passengers and would enter service between 2019 and 2020, with an option for up to 12 more ferries to allow for further replacements and service expansion.
The government confirmed recently that those plans had fallen through, citing a lack of suitable off the shelf ferry designs and lack of interest from shipbuilders. Local interest groups along the rover are disappointed by the decision, as they claim they need to new ferries to allow for an increase in service due to current overcrowding issues. Ferries often operate at capacity from as early as 10am and as late as 7pm on warm summer weekends.
Sydney Metro West is a much talked about and much needed new rail line between the CBD and Parramatta. The State Government has previously committed to have it open and operating by 2029, whilst the Labor opposition has pledged to have it open earlier, by 2024.
However the project is already running behind schedule. The final business case for the project was due for release by late 2018 but the government is still yet to release them. Internal documents and industry insiders suggest the cost of such as line could blow out to as much was $25 billion, well above the initial $18 billion price tag and that this cost could partially be to blame for the delay.
Both Sydney Metro and Andrew Constance were quick to stress the importance of the project however neither would comment on the business case or cost. This delay would likely be indicative of a delay to the start of construction, which was originally slated for mid 2019.

The olive handle makes all the difference
I have bought other Bigcat knives, but the olive handle on this one makes the difference. It looks amazing!
Durable and robust knife!
My husband was thrilled with this knife. The blade is exquisite, and it has a really nice heft and balance at the tang. The olive wood is very unusual, making it distinctive to him. I imagine it will become even more personalized with use.
It's a super nice Damascus knife with a beautiful handle. Highly recommend it.
A great knife for my collection
Great knife! The Damascus pattern is astonishing, and the sheath surpassed my expectations. Both are very well crafted. A word of warning: the blade on this knife is extremely sharp.
After delving into the world of Damascus steel blades, I decided I wanted one for myself. Fortunately, my family gifted me this knife for my birthday, and I'm quite pleased with my choice. While I'm no metallurgy or cutlery expert, I believe the fit and finish are excellent. The quality of construction satisfies me completely, and I love the intricate pattern in the steel's appearance. I plan to use this knife, though it won't be the kind that rattles around in my tackle box. Rest assured, it will see use. I'll be sure to provide more feedback in the future.

In 2019, a group of volunteers founded the Cuore Attivo Monte Rosa association with the objective of giving something back to an area that is crying out for help, by offering medical, educational, and environmental assistance. The members are alpine guides, physicians, and photographers who’ve had their most profound life experiences in these lands, gazing down on the immense expanses of ice that stretch as far as the eye can see. Among them are well-known names in international mountaineering, such as Michele Cucchi, who in 2014 participated in the expedition organized by the EvK2CNR committee to mark the 60th anniversary of the first ascent of K2, helping to train talented Pakistani mountaineers, who on that occasion reached the summit’s 8,611 meters.
The activities carried out by the volunteers in the Makalu and Arun valleys include the reconstruction of schools and infrastructure, setting up medical camps in remote areas, and school training to assure the local population a minimum level of education. Since 2017, Cuore Attivo Monte Rosa has contributed to the reconstruction of three schools and delivered more than 17 tons of food and 140 kilos of medical kits.
Significant numbers that accompany the training initiatives for local guides through which the association intends to lay the foundation for restarting the local economy, which is still struggling to take off.


Question: Alternative lighting chargers
I have been using official Apple Lightning cables for all my Apple devices. Yet they all seem to wear out or stop working in less than 2 months. What is worse is when my Ipad or Iphone tells me...........
"This accessory may not be supported"
I mean really. The cable that came with the phone or bought from the Apple store isn't supported? I getting sick and tired of having to plug in my devices multiple times just to get it to charge. Then waking up in the morning to find that my devices have stop charging so now I only have 30% battery to work with in the morning. This is happening with all my Apple devices with multiple cable that I currently have. The newest cable is only 3 weeks old and I'm have the same issues with it as well.
It's clear I need to find another brand of lighting cable to use. So what are the best options? It's clear that the cables that Apple are selling are complete garbage.


This may sound lame, but after nearly three years in Texas, I’m getting a little tired of the weekend river tubing scene.
Sure, I still occasionally get the urge to join hundreds of my fellow floaters along a sunny section of the San Marcos or Guadalupe rivers, the air filled with the sounds of party people and their waterproof Bluetooth boom boxes.
But more often these days, I seek shade, nature, and solitude. That’s what led me to the San Antonio River at Saspamco.
I found this place while looking up official Texas Parks and Wildlife-sanctioned paddling trails in our area. Other than the Mission Reach, the Saspamco trail is the closest one to San Antonio. The name puzzled me – what in the world is a Saspamco?
I learned that it comes from a nearby hamlet, itself named after the San Antonio Sewer Pipe Manufacturing Company. Around the turn of the 20th century, people were using the abundant red clay in the area to make pipe and tile products. There’s still a plant in the area that uses that red clay to make chimney flue liners.
I found some eerie photos of the old factory from 1914-1915. One shows two men in suits standing atop a brick wall. The building sits in a blank and treeless landscape, like the background in a painting by Dalí or Magritte.
The area looks nothing like that now, with small towns interrupting vast stretches of farms, ranches, country roads, and the occasional oil pump jack. The river itself also feels like a place apart.
Here, you ride the murky, green-tinted water along the snaking 6.5-mile path, shaded by trees. Expect to spend about four hours on the river.
You put in at Graytown Park, where you have to walk down metal stairs to access the river. You take out at the muddy banks of Helton Nature Park (If you pass the bridge of FM 775, you’ve floated too far. Neither park has a boat ramp, making this a place for kayaks and small canoes.
Chances are you’ll have the river to yourself. I’ve floated this reach twice, once on a Sunday, and have never encountered another person outside my party.
Prepare for an active float that requires constant attention to avoid snagging your boat on branches below the water’s surface or brushing your head against a dangling willow limb covered with spiders.
As you quietly drift along, you’ll see a riot of bird life – herons, ducks, kingfishers, and other water-loving species erupt from the trees. The feral hog population also appears to be thriving. I heard their grunts, snorts, and the pounding of their hooves on the river’s banks as I passed by.
In its entirety, the Saspamco paddling trail is 12 miles long, stretching from an access point on Loop 1604 all the way down to Helton Nature Park, just north of Floresville. The 1604 access point was closed recently because of flood debris but was reopened in early June, SARA officials said.
The Graytown-to-Helton section is clear. I last floated this reach on Wednesday and found no major obstacles blocking the river. That could easily change after the next flood, though.
This is not a beginner float. Even experienced paddlers should be prepared. I always bring at least 3 liters of water, food, plenty of sunscreen, bug spray, a phone, and cash (the last two in a waterproof bag). Beware of venomous snakes and the surprising variety of wasps and hornets touching down on the surface.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS FLOAT IN A TUBE OR OTHER FLIMSY INFLATABLE CRAFT.
I shudder to use all caps, but I’m serious: You could easily puncture a tube and get stranded on this stretch of river. You would have no other option than to scramble up a steep, slippery, brush-covered river bank, find your way through someone’s property back to the road, and hitchhike to your car. In the words of South Park, you’re gonna have a bad time.
You probably don’t want the kind of close water contact you’d have tubing on a more pristine Hill Country river, anyway. I have a lot of warm feelings toward the San Antonio River, but it’s no crystal-clear stream. A city of 1.5 million people tends to leave its mark on a water body.
In this case, trash is the most obvious reminder of the city upriver. Here’s where you can go to revisit all of that unnecessary stuff you used for five seconds and then threw away. Unfortunately, the trash distracts you from the subtle beauty of this place.
When I last floated this reach of the river, I came across an island of trash and driftwood choking the channel. The trash portion was mostly plastic water bottles and mud-stained chunks of polystyrene. I hope that one day they won’t cover the banks of our river.
At least the water is relatively clean.
Unlike the urban San Antonio River and its tributary streams, this section of the river is officially considered clean enough to swim in, as determined by water quality testing by the State and the San Antonio River Authority.
The water here does have elevated levels of nitrogen and phosphorus, according to the River Authority’s most recent Clean Rivers summary report. That’s likely the result of fertilizer runoff. The Trailist recommends keeping the water out of your mouth.
Still, the river here seems clean enough to host a variety of fish life. Lounging just below the surface, I saw longnosed gar with their pointed snouts and slender spotted bass plunging deeper into the water as I passed.
At the Saspamco reach, the San Antonio River has grown quite a bit compared to the relatively shallow stream of the Mission Reach, having merged upstream with its little sister, the Medina River.
Even in dry times when some Hill Country rivers slow to a trickle, the San Antonio River at Saspamco has a reliable flow. That’s largely thanks to recycled water from the San Antonio Water System re-entering the river.
The river gets a big boost upstream of Graytown with treated water from SAWS’ Dos Rios Water Recycling Center. Surprisingly, this water is cleaner than the river water into which it flows. SAWS is required to treat it to almost drinking-water quality standards.
Overall, this river reach offers a kind of solitude in a natural setting that’s hard to find in this area during the busy summer season. It might not become your favorite float, but it will always leave you tired and satisfied.

Ousted housing authority commissioner Joseph A. Mascia on Saturday blasted Mayor Byron W. Brown as a “coward” and an “elitist” who is disenfranchising public housing residents by kicking the tenant commissioner off the Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority.
What’s more, Mascia vowed: “I’m not going away.”
Mascia’s attorney, Steven M. Cohen, said Brown’s action will be appealed, as will the recommendations of the hearing officer that were the basis for Brown’s decision.
In addition, Cohen said he will file for an injunction to prevent the BMHA’s June 14 tenant commissioner election from occurring unless Mascia’s name is on the ballot.
“We do not retreat from the reality that Joe made unfortunate and offensive statements,” Cohen said Saturday. “But his close friendships with so many people of every race, religion and denomination belie the notion that he is a racist.”
Mascia’s comments, Cohen said, were directed only at people with whom he has political disputes, and are therefore, political speech.
“The hearing officer’s report and recommendations don’t even pretend to take into consideration Joe’s case,” Cohen continued. “Her findings were made before she ever took the bench. For her to suggest Joe Mascia is a racist is contrary to the evidence.”
Hearing officer Ann E. Evanko, an attorney with Hurwitz & Fine, was not available to comment Saturday.
Brown on Friday announced he was removing Mascia from the BMHA board of commissioners, effectively immediately, based on a report submitted by Evanko, who oversaw a three-week public hearing on misconduct charges filed against Mascia. The mayor also said Mascia’s ouster precludes him from running for re-election in next month’s tenant commissioner elections.
Mascia was suspended from the BMHA and brought up on charges in August after recordings surfaced of him using racist language to describe several of the city’s African-American leaders, including Brown, Common Council President Darius G. Pridgen and Assemblywoman Crystal Peoples-Stokes, as well as some of the BMHA leadership.
Mascia, 70, lives in the Marine Drive Apartments, and has been a tenant commissioner since 2006. He was planning to run for re-election next month.
In her report, Evanko wrote that Mascia’s racist views and prejudices undermine his ability to serve in a “fair and impartial manner” on the Housing Authority.
“It’s clear to me from the hearing officer’s finding that Mr. Mascia is a racist masquerading as an activist,” Brown said when announcing Mascia would be removed from office.
After reviewing the mayor’s statements, Mascia on Saturday called Brown a “coward” for making a Memorial Day weekend announcement without having the courtesy to first notify Mascia of his decision.
Mascia said Brown is disenfranchising the BMHA tenants by not letting them decide in the coming election if Mascia should represent them.
Mascia also called Brown an “elitist,” adding, “I’ll stack my work in the community against his anytime.”
“I will continue to work and fight for the residents in housing, the poor, minority and disenfranchised in the community – something Mr. Brown has been unable to do with any success,” Mascia said.
The mayor, through spokesman Michael J. DeGeorge, issued the following statement: “The mayor acted after receiving the recommendation of hearing officer Ann Evanko. Mr. Mascia was served properly, notifying him that he had been terminated from the BMHA board before the information was publicly released. The hearing officer addressed the question of the mayor’s authority to remove a BMHA commissioner and found that this is well settled and that he does. We believe any higher court would agree.”

I did the post originally about the art of conversation from a spiritual point of view. But then, after a couple of hours of having posted it, I realized that in writing this post, I had discovered something new about love-hate relationships which I had been thinking about for the last many years but never really figured out the true basis of love-hate relationships.
So, then, I amended the post and made it about, both, love-hate relationships and the art of conversing spiritually.
Most of us love meeting people, talking to them, exchanging ideas, etc. And, psychologically, all of us desperately need to connect. Otherwise, we become sad and depressed. There is this deep hunger to connect. And I believe it is a spiritual need. Just like searching for God or nirvana or moksha or the Creator, call it whatever, or like searching for our own source, identity or purpose, the desire to meet people and talk to them and be listened to by them is a deep spiritual need. And I believe it is connected to the search for God. We are always trying to make sense of life. And all this search and all questions we keep trying to answer are part of that one big question, what’s going on here, in this world? What is it all about?
That is the question we are trying to answer. And I also believe that deep down, in the heart of our hearts and deep in our subconscious, we all know that we are one, like the fingers on our hands and like waves in an ocean and like the leaves on a tree, we are one. But, then, in the physical world, the world that we think is real, we perceive everyone as separate individuals. There is this conflict between the innate knowledge of oneness and the outer perception of separateness.
This very conflict is the root cause of the love-hate relationships that we have. And almost every relationship that we have is a love hate relationship. I never figured out fully before today why we have love and hate in all of our relationships. Here’s what i think now: love comes from the innate knowledge of oneness that we have; hate comes from the interactions of the different egos. And, unless you realize the world of ego that you are living in and move beyond it, you cannot do anything about it. This is how things are and they will be if you don’t move beyond the world of ego. And no relationship will be spared this love-hate combination. Its not just the husband-wife / spousal relationships that suffer this or brothers or father-son relationships. It is every relationship we are ever going to have. In different degrees, but love and hate will always be there. The only way out is meditation or, as I call it, utter silence and stillness.
Now, lets zoom into this conflict… this conflict between the innate oneness and the world of ego not only creates the love-hate combo, it also creates a curiosity, a need to know more about others and also a need to share our own life with others. The ultimate subconscious desire is to confirm our innate oneness, to become one with others. We are already one, but there is this perception of separateness coming from the ego which we are unknowingly trying to overcome.
What an amazing intersection of innate knowledge, On the one hand, and our needs and feelings coming from the ego, on the other hand. And just think about it, every relationship we have has to pass through this tricky, dicey, dodgy intersection! No wonder our relationships are such a pain to keep and maintain!
So, now, lets move on to our interactions and conversations… what happens when we get together? That is the most unfortunate part. We try to come together seeking to become one, but as soon as we come into contact, the egos take over. When I meet you, it’s one ego, one personality, one ‘I’, meeting another ego, another personality, another ‘I’. And the ego knows nothing but conflict and self-interest. That’s the ego’s way of dealing with things. If the others are useful, befriend them, if they are harmful, destroy them and if they are neither, then ignore them, don’t waste time on them and find someone or something more useful. For most of us, if we examine our lives and day to day activities, we will find some version of this strategy in place.
This post is suggesting that (i) we recognize our innate oneness and our subconscious desire to become one with others, (ii) we reject the negativity of the ego and (iii) we connect with others in a very spiritual way, so that we can realize and manifest in our lives what our subconscious is already telling us, i.e., that we are all one. And I believe that the best way to start doing that is by devising a way of connecting with others that demolishes the perception of being separate individuals.
How do we do that? Here are a few suggestions:
– Remember the innate divinity of everyone: I need to remember that everyone is me; the perception of ‘you’ or the ‘other’ is a myth. We are all one and we all have the divine presence in us. When you meet someone or see someone in the car next to yours or wherever, remember that you are looking at the divine. Respect the divine. And actually you don’t even need to respect it. I can guarantee that when you can see the divine in everyone, love and respect and humility will come on their own. It will be effortless.
– Listen to the divine: if you can start seeing the divine in everything and everyone, then you can also start listening more to people. Be ready to listen to and to learn from the divine. Once you are connected to the divine, it will send you the most amazing messages about life from the most mundane things. A brilliant learning process will start. Just open yourself to it.
– Avoid negativity: avoid humor and sarcasm and aggression and conflict. These are poisons coming from the ego. We use them frequently without realizing how damaging they are to our subconscious desire to connect with others. Especially humor and sarcasm, since they come couched in smiles and laughter. Comedy is one of the most popular forms of entertainment, yet it is the most violent form of it. Avoid comedy, whether in movies, TV or real life. Much better than trying to make people laugh is to listen to them and understand them.
– Be yourself: avoid trying to create an impression on others. No one is important enough for you to change yourself to get their attention. We often do try to change ourselves to suit others… whether because we are in ‘love’ with someone or because we want desperately to be someone’s friend or fit into a particular group of people and be accepted by them or whatever. Nothing could be more damaging than to change yourself to make others happy or to make them accept you. Even if you’re successful and people start loving you or accepting you as your friend or whatever, its a fake you and sooner or later this fake you and the real you are going to be fighting over control of you, your time and your other resources. A part of you will want to be the real you and another of you will want to be the fake you. And this fight will never end, it will go on forever. And as long as it goes on you will never have peace in your life.
And as long as this fight, this conflict is there, all your conversations will be negative, because they are coming from a conflicted, negative mind.
Secondly, be truthful. Nothing can create more understanding in relationships than being truthful and straightforward. Say things as they are and life will be simpler. There will be more peace and contentment in life.
– Silence is golden: speak as little as possible. So many times, we desperately try to convey reality or truth using a lot of words. But remember, actual truth is normally far away from the words we use. Words have a lot of BS, a lot of useless baggage, around them. So, the less words you use, the better. Try using silence as a means of communication and you will see that many times, it is a much better tool to convey reality or to convey your feelings than words are. Words, at best, are an approximation of what’s actually going on. At many times, they represent just the tip of the iceberg which can only be felt and not described. So use your words as consciously and as sparingly as possible.
Finally, as always, I know, things are easier said then done… and one step at a time can eventually take us a very long way!
