In 2020, election week replaced election night: Joe Biden wasn’t declared the winner until Saturday. The truth is the Decision Desk cannot know until election night which scenario will unfold, regardless of how carefully we have analyzed the polls, early vote, and other election-related data. One thing is clear: The days of projecting a winner on election night itself are almost certainly over. North Carolina has a similar pattern in how it reports out the vote, with 99% of the vote counted by midnight in past elections. And unlike some other close states, it wasn’t just because the margin was so thin.

On Nov. 5, the Decision Desk will project 610 races across all 50 states, from the presidential election to statewide and congressional contests. Early on election night, the Decision Desk uses exit poll data to determine whether it can project uncompetitive races. When a party has gained a majority of 218 seats in the House, the Decision Desk will project control for that party. Other sources for election vote data include state and county vote computer feeds and websites, when they are available. Exit poll results are independently analyzed in real time, and NBC News calls all races as soon as the Decision Desk is fully confident in the winner.

Authorities have stepped up scrutiny of drugmakers after some cough syrups made in India were linked to deaths of dozens of children overseas. It is the fourth Indian cough syrup maker to stop production after regulators found lapses. Rajesh Bhatia, one of the three directors at Riemann Labs, had told Reuters previously he was not aware of the matter. "Some violations in good manufacturing practices and good lab practices were found," Khade said, without specifying what the violations were. Riemann has been identified as the maker of Naturcold cough syrup, Khade said.

Oppenheimer’s list of books included works by Plato, mathematician Bernhard Riemann and scientist Michael Faraday, and the “Bhagavad-Gita,” with which he has famously long been associated. What happens when the inner workings and potential reach of scientific inventions are unknown, even to the human beings who create them? Still, Pride is also a time to revel in culture’s power to transform, sustain and bring joy to LGBTQ communities. But Medvedev knows that above all else he needs Putin to think of him as unequivocally loyal and useful. What it will do is help 40 million borrowers who, like me, were drowning in debt and need immediate relief.

Wisconsin judge won’t order sequestering of absentee ballotsMADISON, Wis. — A Wisconsin judge on Monday, less than 14 hours before polls opened, refused to order that military absentee ballots be pulled aside and sequestered until it can be verified that they were cast legally, saying that would be a “drastic remedy” that could disenfranchise voters. The Republican chair of the Wisconsin Assembly’s elections committee along with a veterans group and other voters sued on Friday, seeking a court order to sequester the ballots. Waukesha County Circuit Judge Michael Maxwell denied that request for a temporary restraining order in a ruling from the bench following a two-hour hearing Monday afternoon. “That just seems to be a drastic remedy,” he said of sequestering the ballots.

☆ Bochum stun Bundesliga leaders Union Berlin 2-1

BOCHUM, Germany Oct 23 (Reuters) - Relegation-threatened VfL Bochum scored once in either half to stun Union Berlin 2-1 on Sunday, leaving the Bundesliga leaders with only a slim gap at the top and bagging a second win of the season to move off the bottom of the table. Pantovic had another chance to put Union back in the game but the former Bochum player's 78th-minute penalty was parried by keeper Manuel Riemann. Bochum's second win of the season lifted them off last place and into 17th on seven points. Schalke 04, who sacked coach Frank Kramer on Wednesday, dropped to bottom place following their 2-1 defeat at Hertha Berlin courtesy of Wilfried Kanga's 88th-minute winner.

☆ O nouă era pentru agricultură: Cea mai mare fermă verticală din Europa va fi construită în Copenhaga
▼ + stars: | 2021-01-02 | by ( ) www.jurnal.md time to read: +1 min

Sistemul agricol este conceput pentru a folosit mai puțin spațiu decât metodele tradiționale și va folosi peste 20.000 de lumini LED în nuanțe purpurii asupra plantelor pentru a reproduce lumina solară. „Noi oferim o cale mai sustenabilă de a produce hrană pe tot timpul anului, local și fără să deranjăm natura”, a declarat Anders Riemann, fondator al companiei Nordic Harvest. Criza climatică și conflictele pun în pericol siguranța alimentară mondialăÎn 2016, în jur de 37% din masa teritorială a Pământului era folosită pentru agricultură, potrivit unui raport al Băncii Mondiale. Plante aromatice, salată și varză kaleFerma verticală va fi instalată în hala de 7.000 de metri pătrați și se va concentra pe plante aromatice, salată și varză kale, însă dezvoltatorii au spus că vor putea să crească și fructi de pădure în decurs de doi ani și legume rădăcinoase în următorii 5 sau 10 ani, potrivit Reuters. Dezvoltată de Nordic Harvest și compania YesHealth din Taiwan, ferma verticală va fi extinsă de la o capacitate inițială anuală de 200 de tone la 1.000 de tone în al patrulea trimestru din 2021.
