- SEC Chair Gary Gensler assured the Senate that the regulator is working overtime to create a set of rules to oversee the volatile cryptocurrency markets.
- Gensler told reporters after the Senate Banking hearing that the SEC is weighing different options for how to tackle problems with payment for order flow.
- Republican Sen. John Kennedy accused Gensler of imposing his personal belief on the nation's companies through climate and diversity disclosures.
WASHINGTON — Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Gary Gensler on Tuesday assured lawmakers that Wall Street's top regulator is working overtime to create a set of rules to oversee the volatile cryptocurrency markets while balancing the interests of American innovators.
Gensler told the Senate Banking Committee that he and his team are trying to protect investors through better regulation of the thousands of new digital assets and coins, as well as oversight of the more-familiar bitcoin and ether markets.
The SEC chief noted the enormity of the task, telling Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., that the regulator could use "a lot more people" to evaluate the 6,000 novel digital "projects" and determine whether they all qualify as securities under U.S. law.
"Currently, we just don't have enough investor protection in crypto finance, issuance, trading, or lending," Gensler said in prepared remarks. "Frankly, at this time, it's more like the Wild West or the old world of 'buyer beware' that existed before the securities laws were enacted."
Still, some lawmakers pressured Gensler to pick up the pace, arguing the opaque definitions and an uncertain marketplace not only lead to unchecked speculation but could also stifle innovation.
Sen. Pat Toomey, a Pennsylvania Republican and the committee's ranking member, pressed Gensler early in the hearing over whether stablecoins meet the definition of a security since investors don't necessarily expect those assets to return a profit.
Stablecoins are a type of cryptocurrency linked one-for-one to dollars or other traditional currencies and, as such, tend to be less volatile than their peers in the asset class.
"My whole point is, I think we need clarity on this," Toomey said. "I think you should publicly disclose this. ... And we certainly shouldn't be taking enforcement action against somebody without having first provided that clarity."
But where Toomey and his Republican colleagues voiced concern about the SEC's potential to stifle innovation without a public set of guidelines, Democrats tended to highlight speculative risk they see as rampant in the cryptocurrency market.
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., jokingly criticized Gensler for putting only one "wild" in his description of the cryptocurrency industry as the "Wild West" of financial regulation.
"As someone who shares some of your concerns about crypto, I will acknowledge that you only put one 'Wild' in front of 'West,' as opposed to two," he quipped. "As somebody who managed to do pretty well financially because of innovation, I'm all in. But we do need some guidance. We do need some direction."
"I would go to the two 'Wilds' in terms of the description of this area, as good as some of the innovation is," he added.
Controversial practice under scrutiny
Lawmakers also peppered Gensler with questions about the SEC's ongoing analysis of payment for order flow, a controversial practice that online brokerages such as Robinhood Markets use to make money.
Firms such as Robinhood sell their customers' trades to market makers such as Citadel Securities that execute the buy and sell orders. Market makers generate profits by pocketing the difference between the price at which they buy shares on the open market and the price they receive from selling them to Robinhood clients.
That means there is an incentive for market makers to inflate the price they quote to Robinhood's customers. And given Citadel's commanding market share, some regulators are concerned that investors may not be getting the best deal, since online brokerages themselves have an incentive to keep rosy relations with the companies that buy their trading volume.
"The United Kingdom, Canada and Australia have bans," Gensler told reporters following the hearing. "We're taking a look at the whole market structure."
The retail public is paying in that "they don't necessarily have order-by-order competition," Gensler said, meaning that trading orders are bought up by just a few market makers known as "wholesalers" and aren't fought over with promises of the lowest price.
Robinhood's chief legal officer said on Monday that he believes the SEC will ultimately "arrive at the conclusion that payment for order flow is undoubtedly an amazingly good thing for retail investors and they're not going to ban it."
Diversity and climate
Democrats and Republicans respectively praised and faulted Gensler for the SEC's move to approve Nasdaq's rule to require diversity on the boards of companies that list with the exchange operator and increased efforts to require corporate climate disclosures.
The Nasdaq's new rule, which is expected to face legal challenges, compels company boards to meet gender and racial diversity requirements or explain in writing why they have failed to do so.
Nasdaq's goal for most U.S. companies is to have at least one woman director in addition to another board member who self-identifies as a member of a racial minority or the LGBTQ community.
Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., perhaps offered the most direct critique of the SEC's decision to approve of Nasdaq's rule.
"As to the people and the companies that you regulate, do you consider yourself to be their daddy?" Kennedy asked of Gensler. "Why do you impose your personal preferences about cultural issues and social issues on companies, and therefore their customers and their workers? Like climate change and the Second Amendment."
"I'm sure you have personal feelings about abortion," Kennedy continued. "Do you have plans to impose those values on companies?"
"I think that I am not doing that," Gensler replied. "I think what I've been trying to do is say, if investors want information about climate risk ... we at the SEC have a role to put something out to notice and comment, do the economic analysis and really see what investors are saying."

Joe Biden Breaks Fundraising Record after First Debate with $21.5 Million Haul in Single Day
Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign raised more than $21.5 million on September 30 following the first presidential debate with President Donald Trump. This is the single best fundraising day for the campaign so far.
The major fundraising haul was raised online, according to the New York Times national political reporter Shane Goldmacher, who cited a Biden campaign official.
Biden has outpaced the Trump campaign in crucial fundraising, enabling his campaign to spend more on TV advertising at a time when the president's campaign was pulling back. Wednesday's numbers follow similar success the previous day.
The Democrat's campaign raised $3.8 million between 10pm and 11pm on Tuesday night. Biden and Trump were on stage debating at the time and the donations continued to flow after the event.
Between 9pm and 12pm Tuesday, the Biden campaign raised almost $10 million. This money came from 215,000 donors, a campaign official told Politico.
Of these, 60,000 were new donors to the Biden campaign, while almost 100,000 people signed up to volunteer for Biden during the debate. Eighty-five percent of contributions raised during the 10pm hour were by SMS text message.
September 30 is also on track to be ActBlue's second best fundraising day ever. ActBlue is a digital fundraising platform used by many Democratic candidates and political committees.
ActBlue's biggest one-day haul came following the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. The fundraising platform broke several of its own records as donations poured in, at one point raising $6.3 million in one hour.
Ginsburg died on Friday, September 18. By the Monday following her death, ActBlue had received more than $160 million. Much of this will go to Senate Democrats, who will lead the opposition to Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Amy Coney Barrett.
The Biden campaign raised a record-breaking $365 million in August, beating the Trump campaign by $154 million. This allowed the campaign to outspend Trump 3-to-1 on TV advertising.
Last spring, the president's campaign was far ahead of Biden on fundraising but small-money donors have given the Democrat a major boost. The Trump campaign has not yet released its fundraising numbers from debate night.
The Trump campaign has been accused of blowing through a $1 billion lead with frivolous spending. However, neither campaign has released September fundraising totals yet.

The future is green energy.

What If...? Is A Feast Of Marvel Easter Eggs
Episode 2 is filled with Thor references.
What If...? is arriving just in time to cure viewers of their post-Loki lull — but the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first animated series is more than a fun retreading of old stories and roads not taken. In fact, What If...? is perfectly positioned to connect the MCU's most recent chaos with the progression of Phase 4, especially in films like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Executive producer Brad Winderbaum seemed to confirm the new show's connection to MCU canon, telling Deadline that "it's no coincidence that the show picks up right after Loki," in which "the multi-verse has erupted in every possible direction."
Since the trailer dropped, there's already been an abundance of Marvel Easter eggs in What If...? It makes sense, given the show's premise of twisting past places, characters, and events into new outcomes (like Peggy Carter getting the super-soldier serum instead of Steve Rogers or T'Challa becoming Star-Lord instead of Peter Quill). And after Sylvie set the Multiverse free in the Season 1 finale of Loki, well, anything's possible. Here are all the details, references, and Easter eggs you may have missed for What If...? so far.
This post will be updated as new episodes of What If...? premiere on Disney+ every Wednesday.

Sri Lanka ODI Squad For Australia 2022
The Sri Lanka Cricket Board SLC has announced the squad for the ODI series against Australia 2022 at home. There are multiple surprises in this announced team. Batsmen Dinesh Chandimal and Bhanuka Rajapaksa have been returned, not Angelo Mathews.
The Sri Lanka Cricket Board (SLC) announced the 21-member ODI squad in a statement on Friday. As usual, all-rounder Dasun Shanaka is in charge of the Lankans in the limited overs series. Australia whitewash Sri Lanka in the three match T20 international series by winning all the three T20I matches of the series.
Earlier, the SLC had announced a preliminary squad of 28 members. This time it was reduced to 21. Dhananjaya Laksan, Sahan Arachchi, Janith Lianage, Binura Fernando, Dilshan Madushanka were left out. Sri Lanka U-19 captain Dunith Vellalage has been named in the ODI squad for the first time. Also, despite the economic crisis in the Sri Lanka, SLC has announced to host the LPL 2022.
Sri Lanka ODI squad 2022:

I do not have the mind of Christ. I don't understand God's ways in the world. My reaction to toddlers crushed by a terrorist's truck in Nice and to public executions in Turkey and elsewhere isn't the same reaction that Christ has from His eternal perspective.
My immediate reaction is fear, revulsion, and a deep longing for Jesus to return NOW. Isn't this as bad as it can get, Lord?
This demonstrates that I certainly don't think like God. I am nowhere near as compassionate, merciful, and just. Unlike Him, I don't love the world with the kind of love He demonstrated in sending His Son to die a gruesome death to save us from ourselves. I don't have the ability and intention to bring judgment against the perpetrators of each evil act, while simultaneously wooing all of humanity, including those perpetrators, to myself as He does.
Rather, I think like an earthbound woman, one who has taken toddlers in strollers to similar events. My reaction is temporal and severely limited by my humanity, fear-driven and governed by how much I can tolerate. I can't take much more. The continual onslaught of horrific news from around the world day after day breaks my heart.
I don't have the view of heaven. I don't see the big picture.
Jesus' reaction is to welcome the martyred ones into Paradise with open arms, to give them a place right under His throne so He can comfort them without ceasing, to heed their voices, and to act on their behalf. The book of Revelation reveals wave after wave of actions taken by God on behalf of the martyrs' pleas. The culmination of human history is His response.
God views suffering differently than we do, not only because of its refining effects on our entry into His presence, but also because of the effect it has upon us here on earth. Augustine said it best:
What we approach with horror and doubts of God's goodness, He knows is the doorway to heaven. When people are at the end of themselves, they turn to God. He knows this. I don't comprehend God's patience. I'm ready for all of this to be over now. I want unity, harmony, and love now.
Come, Lord Jesus!
But He doesn't want any to perish. He wants all who hear His voice to have the opportunity to turn to Him, so He can bring them into His kingdom, rather than under His wrath. He won't return to bring His peace until that number is complete. He knows what is necessary to win the final ones. We don't.
This isn't Eden, as I wrote in my last blog. On this broken earth, some are won with kindness, while some are won through suffering brought by the violence occurring all over the world. The ways of God with one person are not the same as the ways of God with another.
My challenge is to remember Who He is, to delve deeper still, so I am able to comprehend His character more fully. Do I truly believe that He knows how to win His own? Do I really believe that a sovereign God can work together even the evil actions of truck-driving madmen and the calamities in the world to bring about His good purposes in history?
If I believe this, and I do, then I must trust Him.
Lord, I believe. Please, continue to dig out and enlighten the vestiges of my doubt and unbelief.

Coronavirus cases have doubled in the last week in Marshall County, home of Lake Guntersville in north Alabama, with the number of positive tests now outpacing any county north of Birmingham.
Officials this week pointed to two primary reasons: The ongoing work at essential industries such as poultry processing plants – where employees typically work elbow to elbow – and the fact that Marshall has tested more people for the novel coronavirus than neighboring counties.
One poultry plant, Wayne Farms in Albertville, confirmed earlier this week that 75 employees had tested positive and one had died. Marshall County has more than a dozen poultry processing plants, primarily located in Albertville.
"I know as a plant and a staff there, they are doing everything they can to keep their staff safe," said Tracy Honea, Albertville's mayor.
Related: Alabama hospital celebrates 'miracle' coronavirus recovery
Honea said he is in daily contact with the poultry plants, trying to maintain a gauge on the virus' spread and the companies' efforts to mitigate that spread. He said there hasn't been a company resistant to making changes for the well-being of their employees.
The poultry industry is a major engine of the Marshall County economy – from the processing plants with high numbers of employees to the individual poultry farmers scattered throughout the county. Some of those changes include reducing production loads, which means fewer workers are needed.
At Wayne Farms, the Albertville mayor said one shift is down to about 20 percent production.
"It's very obvious to me if you reach out to these folks, they are doing a lot," Honea said. "They are doing as much as they possibly can."
In Marshall County, 258 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in Marshall County, more than double the number of positives on April 17. However, just 12 people are hospitalized.
The rate of positive tests have been generally lower across the state than in Marshall County, which has a rate of 266.6 positive tests per 100,000 people. Of the seven bordering counties, Marshall's rate is more than five times the rate of three counties and more than six times another bordering county.
The exception is Etowah County to Marshall's southeast. But even Etowah's rate at 117.3 is more than two times lower than Marshall's rate. Etowah, however, has had 8 coronavirus deaths -- twice Marshall's total.
Marshall Medical Center, which has the county's two hospitals in Boaz and Guntersville, described the number of inpatients as being "disproportionate" to the number of positive tests. The smaller, hard-hit counties, Tallapoosa and Chambers, have seen four times as many deaths as Marshall.
Anita McBurnett, the Marshall County EMA director, stressed the high number of positives circles back to a high number of tests that have been administered. According to the Alabama Department of Public Health, the 1,235 tests that have been conducted in Marshall County far exceeds tests in any bordering county except Madison.
But McBurnett, with a county-wide perspective as EMA director, said the poultry plants are a factor as well.
"We know where it's kind of circulating," she said. "We have a lot of industry here, to include poultry industry. If you have it in one location, the chances of it being transferred to other employees exists. I think that's what we're seeing in Marshall County is that.
"Steps are being taken at the poultry producing plants and other industry to try to ensure social distancing and try to in some of these places they work elbow to elbow. That's the situation."
Guntersville Mayor Leigh Dollar echoed that perspective as well.
"We have some in Guntersville," she said. "I don't think we're the significant number in Marshall County. I think it's probably more in the south of the county (where Wayne Farms is located) than it is right here – from what I hear. I don't know if that's a fact."
The reality is that local leaders said there is no firm reason or source for the high number of tests in Marshall County, a topic Dollar said they will no doubt study as the immediate threat subsides.
"I wonder why. Why are we so high?" said Dollar, who also pointed to the amount of testing ongoing in the county as a possible explanation. "Why are we higher than Madison County now? I don't like being termed the hot spot. That is not something we want to be. That's why we try to get the message out to follow the safety protocol."
Honea, meanwhile, did not mention increased testing and focused primarily on the close-contact industries in his town.
"Obviously, the numbers have spiked," he said. "The things these companies have put into place, they have almost put (line workers) in their own cubicles. I'm not just hearing it from one, I'm hearing it from a lot of them. When you've got USDA and state health department folks (looking on), I think they are doing the right thing and doing all they can. I, for one, want to do everything I can to help them.
"I don't think they need rocks thrown at them. Unless they are blatantly doing stuff wrong and, to this point, I have not seen that."
Still, the hot spot is actually not that hot when it comes to patients being hospitalized. And that's been the fear among healthcare workers – a surge of patients so great it overwhelms the hospitals. From a hospital perspective, given the numbers of people requiring inpatient treatment, the pandemic has not had much of an impact in Marshall County.
Marshall hospitals also have the safety net of Huntsville Hospital. The Marshall hospitals are part of the Huntsville Hospital Healthcare System and CEO David Spillers said that Huntsville could handle some COVID-19 patients from Marshall County if the hospitals there are strained.
"The anecdotal information is that many of the patients are in that age group where they have it, but it doesn't seem to particularly cause a lot of problems," Spillers said of the Marshall positives. "Hopefully, that will continue."
Nevertheless, Spillers has repeatedly said over the past couple of weeks that he is "concerned" about Marshall County and is watching the situation closely.
"You always worry about that group (of young COVID-19 patients) taking it back and giving it to their parents and grandparents or somebody who is older and has some complications," he said. "So far, it hasn't been an issue.
"I would have projected more inpatients based on the number of outpatients they have."

Etching: an artist's guide || Ann Norfield
Posted by Henry in Author: Ann Norfield, Medium: Etching, Medium: Printmaking, Publisher: Crowood Press, Subject: Etching on Jan 28, 2020
Etching is a subject that is difficult to cover in a single volume, particularly one that intends to be both an introduction and a creative guide. A fair amount of unfamiliar equipment is required, as well as a whole new range of techniques and terminology. It isn't really something to try on a winter's afternoon, but rather to embark on after serious consideration and with a fair degree of commitment.
Ann Norfield recognises all these issues and presents an overview that is perhaps of most use as a reader for someone whose interest has been piqued and is looking at the world of printmaking. All the basic information is here, from aquatint to photo etching, with a clear outline both of what is needed and what can be achieved. Interviews with other practitioners that punctuate the text provide different angles on the creative side of the process.
Given the bulk of some of the equipment required, the spaces and the safety considerations, it's likely that a newcomer will be using a shared space and have access to advice from more experienced printmakers. However, a guide as thorough as this is useful – essential, perhaps – as background reading and for technical and creative insights.

text: FOOD PHIL REID PHOTOS 53 Renowned Treasure Coast chef continues his passion in the mountains of Mexico Chef Ian Greenwood still conducts cooking classes for local foodies and budding gourmands at home in his self-designed kitchen. BY BARBARA REID As a food writer, I am regularly asked about restaurants, recipes and chefs. But the most oft-asked question has to be, "Whatever happened to Ian Greenwood?" Chef extraordinaire and renowned owner of a dozen Florida restaurants, Greenwood raised the bar in dining excellence, drawing on flavors from around the globe for his inspiration. In 2010, he hung up his toque and headed to Mexico. I finally caught up with him in the small 16th-century village of Ajijic, Ah-hee-heek, where charming cobblestoned streets lined with brightly colored storefronts echo with the clip-clop of horses' hooves. It's a place where past and present live amicably side-by-side and mañana is a way of life. The neighborhood where Greenwood chose to build his home sits high in the Sierra Madre Mountains overlooking Ajijic and the sparkling waters of Lake Chapala, the largest lake in Mexico. Conveniently located less than an hour from Guadalajara Airport, a half-day drive to the Pacific coast and close to the birthplace of tequila, the stunning views, soft breezes and ambient year-round temperatures attract an eclectic potpourri of year-round expats. PERFECT RETIREMENT PLACE Greenwood says he loves the laid-back lifestyle and the people. "The Mexicans don't have a great deal, but they manage to be happy with the life they have," he remarks. "I originally thought I'd retire to the Caribbean, but I'd been to Mexico a lot and decided it had to be near the water and mountains and have a ggood wine, a grocery store and a fishmonger." Ajijic fit the bill perfectly. As we sit chatting on his terrace, a sweet rescue pup, Izzy, and a cat named Sweet Pea circle our feet. He says the cat was abandoned when a storefront shuttered its business, so he scooped her up and brought her home. Relaxed, goodnatured and cordial, Greenwood's demeanor seems like a far >>

Presidential, Senate and House (of Representative) Elections are three different things, three elections.
Based on the principle of the three branches of government, the President of the United States is the leader of the Executive Branch of the government. The political system in the USA is a parliamentary democracy.
In theory, he is being elected by the people of the nation, by the registered voters. Anyhow, technically it's the Electoral College, which is determining the new president.
A U.S. president is elected for 4 years and can be reelected for one more term, meaning 8 years together (2 terms) at the most he/she can serve.
The president appoints the members of his Cabinet who do not sit in the legislature, as is the case under parliamentary systems of government. This is because, in the U.S., the three branches of government (Executive, Legislative and Judicial) are separate, and under the Constitution, check and balance each other.
On the Election Day the voters also determine who will be future member of the House where all 435 seats are for disposition and they elect one-third of the US Senate, where 100 senators represent the 50 states (2 from each state).
The members of the House underlie a two-year-term of reelection, the US Senate renews every two years a third of its members.
There exist primary (called the primaries), general and local elections. So-called 'Special Elections' occur when a certain purpose has to be fulfilled, i.e. filling a vacancy.
Primary & General Elections
Primary Elections
A primary election is a nominating election in which a candidate is chosen by a political party. A primary election can be either open or closed. If a primary election is closed, only those who are members of the respective party may vote. An open primary is one in which any eligible voter, regardless of party affiliation, may vote.
General Elections
A general election is an election held to choose among candidates nominated in a primary (or by convention or caucus) for federal, state and local office. The purpose of a general election is to make a final choice among the various candidates who have been nominated by parties or who are running as independent or write-in candidates. In addition, where nonpartisan races have not been decided in the primary, the runoffs are held at the general election. Statewide measures also can be placed on the November ballot.
A General Election is held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November in even-numbered years, the so-called Election Day.
Electing the President & Vice
That is a multiple step process: local nominations in the states, followed by the national convention nomination in summer, when the two major parties nominate their major candidate, then the general election campaign when every candidate seeks to convince voters, and the electoral college phase, the final step to determine the new president.
Either a candidate must be nominated by his party or the candidate can be an independent one without party affiliation.
Anyhow, whether representing a party or not, it is an expensive way to run for the presidency. About 12-18 month before the election the candidates start their fundraising rally.
Approximately at the time when the term of the current president is half over, that means about 2 years after the election, the media begin to ask who the next challengers will be. So possible candidates come up, but still need an O.K. from their party, if there is one behind them. That'll be called the nomination process, the primaries.
Primaries on state level
First on a state level to reduce the field of candidates. That starts approximately in February of the election year.
But normally also on the nation level, because running for president means to be popular person, loved by the media, by the voters, by anyone. The media play a huge role during the entire process. Candidates present themselves, are literally x-rayed by opponents, who try to find the little black spot in the candidate's past to ruin his or her campaign.
Opinion: Brief excursion into the 2020 campaign of the Democrats to make primaries more clear: in 2020 the Democrats who had a field of initially 20+ candidates which narrowed down after the first few state primaries to may be 10. Later, after a sudden, probably party-orchestrated mass drop-out of all candidates other than Bernie Sanders, who had so far made himself the No1 candidate by votes, only Joe Biden (who had so far a unsuccessful campaign) remained in the field of candidates. By the mass drop out the party could accumulate the other candidate's votes on Joe Biden because they all suddenly endorsed Biden. Joe Biden came from "Zero to 60" in a heartbeat. Bernie Sanders ended his campaign at that point.
That makes clear that you could argue that a voter's voice doesn't really count and that the party has means to maneuver their favorite candidate into the No 1 position of a field.
Primaries on nation level
The big national Conventions of the two major parties, the Democrats and the Republicans, usually take place during summer of the election year.
National Conventions
Once at the national party conventions, the delegates from the states cast votes for the person who will represent the political party in the November general election.
In order to secure a party's nomination, a candidate must receive a majority of the votes from the delegates. It is not unusual for delegates to vote several times before one candidate secures the majority of the votes and officially becomes that party's candidate for the election to determine the next President of the United States. On the other hand it is also not unusual that during the state primaries one of the candidates is a clear front-runner and others drop out of the race.
The candidate for President then must choose a vice-presidential candidate. Generally, a running mate is chosen that will in some way balance the party's ticket for the general election. This balance may be geographic (choosing a running mate that is very popular in one region where the Presidential candidate is not) or ideological (choosing a running mate with a different ideological framework than the presidential candidate), and the balance is intended to make the overall general election ticket of a political party acceptable to as wide a range of voters as possible.
If a President is running for re-election, this nomination process must be completed. Even if the President does not face any opposition from within his own political party, the national convention will still occur.
The conventions are extravaganzas, full of pageantry and showmanship. They serve to help jump start the general election campaign for the presidential candidates.
The national conventions of the political parties are the culmination of the primary election process. Once the national conventions have been held, and the candidates from the political parties have been nominated and chosen, the presidential election begins in earnest as a contest between the candidates from the political parties. Any divisions or factions that have surfaced within a political party up to the nomination process tend to be set aside and the entire party becomes unified behind its candidate and begins to work to get that person elected.
Independent Candidates
Some people choose to run for president without being affiliated with a political party. Such independent candidates need not concern themselves with getting nominated by a party, but must meet other requirements. For example, such candidates are required to collect a large number of signatures to support their nominations. The sources of funding used by independent candidates comes from personal funds and loans as well as fundraising campaigns.
An independent candidate for President must file a declaration of candidacy and a certification of the candidate's selection for vice president with the secretary of state prior to circulation of the candidate's nominating petitions. The candidate and the candidate's selection for vice president must sign the certification before it is filed. No petition or certificate of nomination may be circulated prior to the first day of January of the year in which the election will be held. Once the required number of signatures is received by the person, s/he is able to run in the general election.
The General Presidential Election
The candidates campaign right up until Election Day, when the American Nation finally votes for its President.
The candidates travel throughout the country, making public appearance and giving speeches. The parties and the candidates use media advertising, direct mailings, telephone campaigns, and other means to persuade the voters to choose one candidate over the other(s). Often, these measures also serve to point out the weaknesses of the candidates from the other parties involved in the general election.
Social media participation and influence became obvious in the 2016 election when a foreign country supported misinformation campaigns and eventually helped Donald Trump to secure the election win for him.
In the national presidential election, every citizen of legal age (who has taken the steps necessary in his/her state to meet the voting requirements, such as registering to vote) has an opportunity to vote.
However, the President is not chosen by direct popular vote. The Constitution requires that a process known as the Electoral College ultimately decides who will win the general election.

Abuses surge as Israeli army unit redeployed in Hebron
BETHLEHEM, West Bank - International observers monitoring human rights abuses against Palestinians in Hebron have reported a marked increase in harassment since February, with frequent night raids, arrests and threats of violence attributed to the redeployment of Israel's Golani Brigade.
Operating in the starkest microcosm of Israel's segregationist polices in the West Bank – around 600 Jewish settlers live among 30,000 Palestinians in Hebron's Old City – volunteers monitor abuses at the 18 permanently staffed military checkpoints in the H2 area, accompany Palestinian children to school to prevent settler attacks and document house raids and arrests.
Although accustomed to hostility and threats from Jewish settlers – the UN reports an average of six settler attacks per week in the West Bank - international volunteer groups say Israeli military forces stationed in the Old City are increasingly responsible for abuses against non-violent activists.
"They are affecting our work. We monitor human rights abuses, we film them, we intervene, but they restrict our movement and we can't reach them. We are not able to reach the victims," Issa Amro, founder of the Hebron-based Youth Against Settlements group, said.
In late February, the Golani Brigade conducted four raids against an apartment hosting volunteers from the International Solidarity Movement (ISM), the group and local activists said.
In one such incident on 18 February, soldiers reportedly threatened that "bad things" would happen if internationals in the residence didn't let them into the property. When asked by volunteers for a search warrant, the soldiers responded that they were "the law" and didn't need one.
A week later, soldiers threatened to throw grenades into the apartment while attempting to arrest a local activist they believed was inside. They also warned ISM volunteers that they wouldn't "be able to close an eye during night-time", the group reported.
The next evening, on 26 February, masked soldiers broke into the apartment and gathered all ISM volunteers in one room before confiscating a map from one of the walls and claiming it was sufficient evidence to deport them.
The threat never materialised, but the harassment continued.
"They are targeting us because we are human rights defenders," Amro said.
"We are afraid, honestly. We had a meeting and we discussed how to continue with this kind of intimidation."
"Usually it's from the settlers, now it's from the soldiers. We wrote letters to the UN Human Rights Council and encourage activists to file complaints and document violations."
History of violence
Observers in Hebron say the increase in incidents of harassment is directly related to the deployment of the Golani Brigade of the Israeli army in Hebron at the beginning of February.
Groups working on the ground in Hebron are all too familiar with the Golani Brigade's aggressive tactics, having called for their "immediate withdrawal" from the Old City in 2012 in a document submitted to the UN.
In the report, the groups – including Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT), ISM, and Youth Against Settlements - recorded an increase in "detentions of adults and children, serious physical injuries sustained while in military custody, home invasions, and an increase in the number and duration of arbitrary detentions of civilians at checkpoints" since their deployment in December 2011.
Local activists say they were withdrawn from Hebron months after their initial deployment, and an Israeli army spokesman told Haaretz newspaper in February 2012 that following the complaints "some specific instances of deviation from army orders were identified" and were addressed at a "disciplinary level".
Since their return earlier this year, activists are increasingly worried for their personal safety and the ability to carry out their work without restrictions.
"They are very violent, especially towards activists. It's almost daily, it's frequent. It has become a phenomenon of the Golani Brigade," Amro said.
Another local peace activist, who preferred not to be identified, said that he has been harassed daily, asked for ID, and detained on accusations of attacking a border police officer over the past month.
He said that members of the Golani Brigade check the IDs of activists at least two to three times a day and often prevent them from crossing checkpoints in H2, a vital part of their accompaniment and monitoring work.
"At checkpoints, some of them (Golani Brigade) will fire sound bombs or tear gas a lot, even if no stones are being thrown. Or after children have left, they will fire tear gas at schools."
Activists routinely receive verbal death threats from soldiers manning checkpoints, and on 1 March, two volunteers from CPT were detained in a settlement police station for five hours while accompanying children from a kindergarten.
On 15 March, an ISM activist was also detained by Israeli forces in an arrest captured on camera for allegedly "attacking" a border police officer, although video footage of the incident proved otherwise.
He was detained for seven hours and banned from Hebron for two weeks.
International activists say they have also been the subject of training exercises for the Golani Brigade, usually at night, and have been violently searched and detained on several occasions.
"We felt our lives were in danger (during the arrest), we are afraid of them and we felt they could shoot any one of us at anytime. We have received death threats, and personally they told me they are 'waiting for an opportunity to shoot me'," Amro said.
Despite the increased harassment, Amro said all local groups will continue serving Palestinians trapped between checkpoints, settlers and Israeli military forces.
Given the complete lack of accountability for settler attacks and Israeli army abuses, the work of volunteer monitors is as important as ever in documenting the systematic violence of Hebron's divided H2 area.
"It's very obvious that they are targeting human rights workers because they don't want us to document rights violations and what is happening in Hebron."

Bi-fold doors are really trendy these days, and most of the credit goes to the slim and narrow profile that maximises natural daylight and an uninterrupted view from your balcony or patio. And aluminium stands to be the ideal material for such doors owing to its slim design, sleek finish, sturdiness, and low maintenance.
So, if you are planning on getting new aluminium bi-fold doors installed in your home, here are a few things that you should consider:
Since bi-fold doors are a common choice for balconies and patios, they are more often exposed to harsh weather conditions, especially if you are living in India. Thus, getting low-quality doors installed can lead to issues like rust, dents, and scratches.
The durability of a product majorly depends on the material you choose. With high-quality aluminium, you can avail benefits like:
- Lightweight
- Longevity
- Improved thermal efficiency
- Corrosion-resistance
- Sleek designs and frames
- Easy to maintain
- TEXGUARD coating with metallic finish and impeccable lustre
So, other than just being durable, aluminium also offers many other features that make it an ideal choice for bi-fold doors.
Security is another primary concern while choosing a bi-fold door as it is usually used as an exterior door on balconies or patios. This means that these doors act as an entry point for your house, making them vulnerable to break-ins.
Thus, it is extremely important that you pay keen attention to the kind of security your aluminium bi-fold door is offering. For instance, TOSTEM INDIA'S doors uphold competitive ASTM (American standards for testing and materials) and JIS (Japanese industrial standards) quality assurance standards. This means that all their aluminium folding doors are of industry-tested quality.
Also, it is recommended to take extra time and effort and pick only the doors that are accredited in order to gain ultimate reassurance. This small step can help you be sure that you are safe in your home.
Moreover, it is important that external bifold doors are installed with a multi-point locking system to ensure better security.
This is the reason why TOSTEM India also offers keys in different combinations along with high-quality:
- security locks
- digital locks
- cylinder locks
Surface Protection:
The type of coating and glazing you choose for your door also plays a significant role as it has various purposes. Not only does it give your door a better look, but it also prevents damage from climatic stresses by offering better heat, sunlight, wind. You can ensure long-lasting lustre, colour, and resistance to heat, sunlight, and water with good quality and proper coating.
This is the reason why one of the leading window and door manufacturing companies – TOSTEM INDIA, offers their fenestration products with TEXGUARD coating. This coating is a result of 21st-century innovation and is the ultimate solution for modern homes. This prevents the doors from dust, heat, and corrosion, making them last for decades without losing their lustre and colour. This also means that these doors require a lot less maintenance.
Thermal Efficiency:
Another major factor that you need to consider is the U-value of your aluminium bi-fold door. This refers to the thermal efficiency of the material. The U-value of your door can tell how well it can hold heat inside the room. The lower the number is, the less heat is lost.
The TEXGUARD coating does not necessarily destabilise the temperature indoors. As a result, you do ensure excellent thermal efficiency after installing an aluminium bi-fold door. This is a top priority for people living in highly exposed and busy areas, including cities.
Delivery and Installation:
While there are several door manufacturing companies in the country, safe and secure delivery is still a goal yet to be achieved by many. On the other hand, TOSTEM INDIA has come up with an ultimate solution by offering pre-engineered aluminium doors that are entirely manufactured at the factory and assembled at the site. This ensures that each and every part of the product is crafted with utmost precision and reached safely and results in reduced installation time. This is a fantastic way out, keeping in mind that fenestration products can be a little tricky to install, especially bi-fold doors and windows.
Buying a bi-fold aluminium door for your home can be an exciting task, but keeping these factors in mind can help you pick the right design, coating, material and even ensure a hassle-free process. We hope that this information helps you find the housing product that caters to all your needs and complements the architecture of your home.

A female tiger is called a Tigress. A tigress is usually larger and more aggressive than a male tiger. The female tiger also called tigress is an excellent mother and protector of her cubs.
The tigress is an excellent mother and protector of her cubs. They are born blind and helpless, and she must teach them to hunt and survive in the wild. She is fiercely protective of her young and will fight to the death to defend them from predators. The tigress is a magnificent creature and a powerful symbol of maternal love and strength.
A mother tigress is typically very protective of her baby tigers and will do everything she can to ensure their safety. She will often hunt for them and provide them with food, while also teaching them how to survive in the wild. The bond between a mother tigress and her cubs is very strong, and they will often stay together for several years before the cubs strike out on their own.
Female tigers are excellent hunters and can take down prey much larger than themselves. They typically hunt alone, using their powerful bodies, long fangs, powerful jaws and sharp claws to ambush their prey. Once they have their prey in their sights, they will stalk it until they are close enough to pounce. The female tiger is a patient hunter and will often wait for hours, hidden in the tall grass, before attacking. Thanks to their beautiful stripes that hep tigers hide in the wild.
As the largest member of the cat family, tigers are fierce predators that hunt and scavenge for food. Though both male and female tigers are equipped with sharp claws and powerful muscles, female tigers have certain adaptations that help them succeed in the wild. However sometimes, because living in the wild is not easy, some female tigers have to kill their own cubs in order to survive.
For starters, female tigers are typically larger than their male counterparts. This size advantage gives them the strength to take down larger prey items. Additionally, female tigers tend to be more patient and stealthy hunters than males. They often lie in wait for their prey, stalking it until they can get close enough for a deadly strike.
Finally, female tigers have a reproductive advantage over male tigers. They can produce litters of cubs, which gives them an edge when it comes to population growth. With more mouths to feed, females must be able to provide for their young ones by successfully hunting and scavenging for food.
