Italgas, which two years ago acquired DEPA Infrastructure and renamed Greece’s gas grid company Enaon, announced this week it is preparing a total investment of 1 billion euros in Greece as part of the group’s 2024-2030 Strategic Plan. This program will be executed by its subsidiary Enaon, focusing on four main pillars to support Greece’s ongoing ecological transition: Methanization of areas not yet connected to the gas distribution network and contributing to the phaseout of more polluting fuels like lignite and coal; digital transformation of the network, including the replacement of traditional smart meters with “H2 ready” technology; development of renewable gases, primarily biomethane and green hydrogen, to bolster decarbonization efforts; and repurposing the existing network to make the energy infrastructure more flexible, ready for a more sustainable energy future. The plan allocates €650 million for the construction of over 3,000 kilometers of new network, extending service to areas not yet connected. This expansion will introduce a new energy source to 18 cities (including Patra, Ioannina, Kastoria, Florina, Grevena and Orestiada) and increase the customer base served by Enaon from the current 615,000 to 920,000 by 2030.Jones alleges fraud and collusion marred the bankruptcy auction in which The Onion was named the winning bidder on November 14 over a company affiliated with him. US bankruptcy judge Christopher Lopez had been scheduled to hear an emergency motion to disqualify The Onion’s bid, but decided to put it off until either December 9 or December 17. That is also when the judge will hear arguments on a request to approve the sale of Infowars to The Onion. Mr Lopez said similar arguments are being made in both requests. He could allow The Onion to move forward with the sale, order a new auction or name the other bidder as the winner. At stake is whether Mr Jones gets to stay at Infowars’ studio in Austin, Texas, under a new owner friendly to him, or whether he gets kicked out by The Onion. The other bidder, First United American Companies, runs a website in Mr Jones’s name that sells nutritional supplements. Regardless, Mr Jones has set up a new studio, websites and social media accounts that would allow him to keep airing his show. His personal account with 3.3 million followers on the social platform X was not part of the sale, although Mr Lopez will be deciding whether it should be included in the liquidation and sold off later. In a new court filing on Monday, lawyers for X objected to any sale of the accounts of both Mr Jones and Infowars, saying X is the owner of the accounts and that it has not given consent for them to be sold or transferred. Mr Jones has praised X owner Elon Musk on his show and suggested that Mr Musk should buy Infowars. Mr Musk has not responded publicly to that suggestion and was not among the bidders. Mr Jones’ bankruptcy and the liquidation of his assets came about after he was ordered to pay nearly 1.5 billion dollars (£1.19 billion) to relatives of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. Mr Jones was found liable for defamation and emotional distress damages in lawsuits in Connecticut and Texas for repeatedly calling the 2012 shooting that killed 20 first graders and six educators a hoax staged by actors to increase gun control. Proceeds from the liquidation are to go to Mr Jones’s creditors, including the Sandy Hook families who sued him. Mr Jones alleged The Onion’s bid was the result of fraud and collusion involving many of those families, the humour site and a court-appointed trustee who is overseeing the liquidation. First United American Companies submitted a 3.5 million dollar (£2.7 million) sealed bid, while The Onion offered 1.75 million dollars (£1.3 million) in cash. But The Onion’s bid also included a pledge by Sandy Hook families to forego some or all of the auction proceeds due to them giving other creditors a total of 100,000 dollars (£79,400) more than they would receive under other bids. The trustee, Christopher Murray, said that made The Onion’s proposal better for creditors and he named it the winning bid. He has denied any wrongdoing. Mr Jones and First United American Companies claimed that the bid violated Mr Lopez’s rules for the auction by including multiple entities and lacking a valid dollar amount. Mr Jones also alleged Mr Murray improperly cancelled an expected round of live bidding and only selected among the sealed bids that were submitted. Mr Jones called the auction “rigged” and a “fraud” on his show, which airs on the Infowars website, radio stations and his X account. In a court filing, Mr Murray called the allegations “a disappointed bidder’s improper attempt to influence an otherwise fair and open auction process”. Mr Lopez’s September order on the auction procedures made a live bidding round optional. It gave broad authority to Mr Murray to conduct the sale, including the power to reject any bid, no matter how high, that was “contrary to the best interests” of Mr Jones, his company and their creditors. But at a November 14 hearing, Mr Lopez said he was concerned about the process and transparency. “We’re all going to an evidentiary hearing and I’m going to figure out exactly what happened,” he said. “No one should feel comfortable with the results of this auction.” The assets of Infowars’ parent company, Free Speech Systems, that were up for sale included the Austin studio, Infowars’ video archive, video production equipment, product trademarks, and Infowars’ websites and social media accounts. Mr Jones is appealing the 1.5 billion dollar (£1.19 billion) in judgments citing free speech rights but has acknowledged that the school shooting happened. Mr Jones has brought in millions of dollars a year in revenue by hawking nutritional supplements, clothing, survival gear and other merchandise from his Infowars Store website, according to court documents. Many of Mr Jones’ personal assets, including real estate as well as guns and other personal belongings, also are being sold as part of the bankruptcy.
The safety of TikTok users “is at the core of the platform”, one of the social media giant’s executives has said as it announced 175 million people now use the platform each month. Christine Grahn, TikTok’s head of European public policy, said users needed to feel safe in order to properly use a platform, and this was a key factor for the company. She was speaking as the shortform video giant held its European Safety Forum in Dublin, where the company discussed upcoming new safety features, including looking into ways of using new machine learning technology to better spot under-13s trying to join the service, and announced plans to add more age restrictions to some facial effects and provide more information to younger users on how an effect might alter their appearance if applied. “If people don’t feel safe, they are not going to bring their authentic selves to the platform and express themselves, and that means that we don’t have the platform that we’re hoping to create,” Ms Grahn told the PA news agency. “In order for us to achieve the best result, which is, at the end of the day, safety for our users, we have everything to gain from working with partners of various sorts. “We adapt our products based on the research that comes out of that work, and we also work with academic partners to integrate their experience. “The end result is going to be so much better if we work together as a society to address societal issues rather than trying to do so in silos.” Richard Collard, associate head of policy for child safety online at the NSPCC, said it was “encouraging” to see TikTok looking to tackle age-related online safety issues. “Given the well documented risks and harmful content that proliferates on some social media platforms, it’s vital that tech companies do everything in their power to ensure the youngest children are not accessing their sites,” he said. “However, age limits only work if they are meaningfully enforced. It’s encouraging to see TikTok recognising this challenge and taking responsibility by using technology to help them uphold their own terms and conditions and keep children safer. “This is just the tip of the iceberg. Other social media sites must step up and find effective ways to assess the ages of their users. “Ofcom and the Government also have an important role to play in compelling tech bosses to deliver age-appropriate experiences for all their users.” Despite its efforts on safety, concerns have been raised in the US and elsewhere about the platform’s possible links to China – TikTok’s parent company is the China-based ByteDance – and critics have raised concerns TikTok could be pressured into handing over data to the Chinese government. TikTok remains banned from government devices in the UK, and its future in the US remains uncertain over a law that requires the site to be sold by ByteDance by January or face being banned in the United States – although it is unclear if president-elect Donald Trump will uphold these plans when he takes office in the same month. In response to these concerns, TikTok has repeatedly denied it does or ever would share data with the Chinese government, and has begun a £10 billion scheme to move its European user data to data centres in Europe to further enhance its security credentials. The scheme also includes independent oversight by a British cybersecurity firm, NCC Group, something Ms Grahn hailed as “unprecedented”. “We’re very proud of this industry-leading data security project, that aims to keep our users even more secure,” she told PA. “There’s a number of different parts in this project, but maybe one of the most interesting is this unprecedented third-party external oversight by British cybersecurity company NCC Group. “They are continuously monitoring the security gateways that surround the European enclave where we store European TikTok user data.” She added: “From our perspective, this has been a massive undertaking – 12 billion euros over the course of 10 years – and we are quite proud of the fact that we’re building out this model, and we do see it to be truly industry leading. “I think some of the aspects of this will also be industry-wide challenges, but we’re happy to be on this journey and we’re quite proud of the progress that we’ve made so far.”Tennis coach Judy Murray says those born male should only compete with menIn their final fixture of 2024, Kai Havertz scored the only goal of the game midway through the opening period. Arsenal’s victory takes them back to within six points of leaders Liverpool, having played one match more than the Reds, and a point clear of Chelsea following their Boxing Day defeat to Fulham. Ipswich, although much improved in the second half, have now lost five of their last six games, and remain just one place off the bottom of the table, three points away from safety. 🎯 pic.twitter.com/hDd5bkHwXr — Arsenal (@Arsenal) December 27, 2024 Mikel Arteta’s men have been rocked by Bukayo Saka’s hamstring injury which could keep the England winger, who has nine goals and 13 assists this season, out of action for the next two months. Gabriel Martinelli was handed the unenviable task of filling Saka’s shoes on Arsenal’s right-hand side and the Brazilian was involved in the only goal of the evening. The Ipswich defence failed to deal with Martinelli’s cross, with the ball falling to Leandro Trossard on the opposite side of the area. Trossard fought his way to the byline before fizzing his cross into the box for Havertz to convert from a matter of yards. It was Havertz’s third goal in four matches, his 12th of the season, and no less than the hosts, who at that stage of the match had enjoyed a staggering 91.4 per cent of the possession, deserved. Heading into Friday’s fixture, Arsenal had lost only one of their last 75 Premier League games when they had opened the scoring, and their triumph here rarely looked in doubt following Havertz’s strike. Three points that take Arsenal into second 🪜 #ARSIPS pic.twitter.com/Dx3s6XlwQ2 — Premier League (@premierleague) December 27, 2024 Havertz thought he had doubled Arsenal’s lead with 34 minutes gone when he converted Gabriel Jesus’ cross. But Jesus – handed his third successive start for the first time in a year – strayed into an offside position in the build-up. When referee Darren England blew for half-time, Ipswich had failed to touch the ball in Arsenal’s box, becoming just the second side to do so in the Premier League this season. Nottingham Forest were the other, away at Liverpool, before they went on to inflict Arne Slot’s sole defeat of his tenure so far. And for all of Arsenal’s possession, while they held just a one-goal advantage, Ipswich knew they were still in the game. An encouraging start to the second half for the Tractor Boys ensued, albeit without testing David Raya in the Arsenal goal. Shortly after the hour mark, Gabriel should have settled any growing Emirates nerves when he arrived unmarked to Declan Rice’s corner, but the defender headed wide of Arijanet Muric’s post when it looked easier to score. Just over an hour on the clock. #ARSIPS pic.twitter.com/JXNipX1J1Z — IPSWICH TOWN (@IpswichTown) December 27, 2024 Martin Odegaard then forced a fine fingertip save from Muric at his near post after a mazy run and shot from the Arsenal skipper. Rice’s stinging goal-bound volley from the following corner was blocked by Dara O’Shea as Arsenal pushed for a game-killing second. Havertz should have tapped home Trossard’s header but he fluffed his lines. And moments later, substitute Mikel Merino’s effort was diverted from danger by a diving Muric. Ipswich looked to catch Arsenal on the counter, but the match ended without them registering a single effort on Raya’s goal. Ipswich fans goaded their opponents with chants of “boring, boring Arsenal”, but it was the Gunners who enjoyed the last laugh as they saw out 2024 with a win which keeps the pressure on Liverpool.

Tonight, Dean McCullough had the prospect of a sixth trial of the series so far, much to a few people's annoyance, but it was Jane Moore who got people talking. Last night, Barry and Danny decided on the new chores each campmate would be doing from now on, Loose Women's Jane Moore accused Barry of being "sexist" and "ageist". Barry explained: "We were looking at you for possible water duty and I thought 'well, you're 62 years old, you're a year younger than me'." As Jane shook her head, she exclaimed: "Ageist and sexist!" Tonight, Jane Moore was slammed on social media. On X, one fan posted: "Jane comes across a bit of a martyr. She isn't the only one on dishes duty. Why is she acting like it is her sole responsibility #imaceleb". Another simply said: "We need to vote for Jane to do a trial next". Someone else commented: "GK said it, vote Jane (more important because she had a strop at Danny and Barry and ruined their night!)". On Sunday (24 November), Coleen Rooney and Dean McCullough faced a gruesome Bushtucker Trial, winning nine stars for the camp. However, McCullough was again voted to face Monday’s trial “Jack the Screamstalk,” much to the frustrations of Ant and Dec (and the public).

Trump’s social media company is exploring a crypto payment service called TruthFi
T he man charged with implementing Donald Trump ’s ambitions for what he calls the “largest deportation operation in American history” spent the week of Christmas and Hanukkah previewing his agenda. Trump and his “border czar” Tom Homan are likely to face a volley of lawsuits and legal obstacles from city and state officials. Homan, in turn, has threatened to prosecute them if they don’t “get the hell out of the way.” Throughout his 2024 campaign, Trump pledged to arrest, detain and deport people living in the country without legal permission as part of his “day one” agenda. The president-elect promises to deploy federal, state and local law enforcement into immigrant communities he says are “poisoning the blood of the country,” relying on stories of violent crime to support a brutal crackdown that could impact millions of families. Homan is signaling a return to family detentions and breaking up families with U.S. citizen children, who could be forced into “halfway houses,” with U.S. military assistance, and with “no price tag” for a years-long project that will rely on more funding from Congress. Trump is also expected to try to end birthright citizenship and block newborns from receiving citizen-affirming documents, likely triggering legal battles and a Supreme Court fight. Human rights groups are urging President Joe Biden’s administration to take immediate action to shut down problematic detention centers, open legal pathways for millions of undocumented immigrants, and add permanent protections for immigrants with temporary legal status. “The public may have voted in the abstract for more enforcement, but I don’t think they voted for more family separation or unnecessary cruelty to children,” ACLU immigrants’ rights attorney Lee Gerlent told The Independent. “Yet repeated statements from the incoming administration suggest that’s what we are looking at, despite the fact that the horrific damage to children from [Trump’s first administration] is still not undone and may never be,” he said. “We’re going to need to construct family facilities,” Homan told The Washington Post . “We need to show the American people we can do this and not be inhumane about it ... We can’t lose the faith of the American people.” Homan said the administration will look to construct “soft-sided” tent facilities that have similarly been used to detain people on the U.S.-Mexico border. Trump and Homan have repeatedly said that even U.S. citizen children of non-citizen parents are expected to be detained and deported along with their families, and that it will be up to families whether to be deported together or remain separated. “Here’s the issue,” Homan told the newspaper. “You knew you were in the country illegally and chose to have a child. So you put your family in that position.” Homan told NBC News that the administration will “end catch-and-release — and that includes family units, too,” referencing a phrase to describe immigrants who are released from detention while awaiting immigration court proceedings. The Biden administration ended family detention in 2021 with the closure of ICE “residential centers” that housed roughly 3,000 beds in dorm-like facilities. There are roughly 4 million mixed-status immigrant families in the United States. “As far as U.S. children, that’s going to be a difficult situation because we’re not going to change your U.S. citizenship,” Homan told NewsNation in a recent interview. “Which means they’re going to be put in a halfway house or they can stay at home and wait for the officers to get the travel arrangements and come back and get the family. You know the best thing to do for a family is to self-deport themselves.” Trump is expected to declare a national emergency on immigration when he enters office to deploy U.S. military assets to work with state and local law enforcement on immigration policing. The former president declared a national emergency for U.S.-Mexico border wall construction in his first term in an attempt to bypass a standoff with Congress. Biden rescinded that order shortly after he entered office in 2021. Trump also intends to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 , which would give the president unprecedented ability to target foreigners for removal, without a hearing or due process, based solely on their place of birth or citizenship. During the first and second World Wars, the federal government turned to the law to detain and restrict German, Austro-Hungarian and Italian immigrants, and infamously used the law for the shameful internment of Japanese Americans, now widely seen as a stain on America’s 20th century history. The largely abandoned law states that the president may order the arrests and removal of non-citizens during times of “declared war” or during an “invasion” or “predatory incursion” by “any foreign nation or government,” but Trump and right-wing legal groups are expected to try to interpret the law more broadly by expanding the definition of “invasion” and “predatory incursion” to mean border crossings, and for drug cartels or criminal gangs to be considered a “foreign nation or government.” “I will rescue every city and town that has been invaded and conquered, and we will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail, then kick them the hell out of our country as fast as possible,” Trump said in remarks from Madison Square Garden. Trump’s administration is expected to rescind a 2011 policy limiting deportation arrests in sensitive locations like schools, hospitals and places of worship, or at events like funerals, weddings and public demonstrations. Homan has also threatened to prosecute Democratic officials in cities with so-called “sanctuary” policies that limit cooperation with federal law enforcement agencies to protect immigrant populations from unjust arrests, detentions or deportations . “No more sanctuary cities,” Trump declared at a campaign event in North Carolina in September. “As soon as I take office, we will immediately surge federal law enforcement to every city that is failing, which is a lot of them, to turn over criminal aliens.” The administration is also expected to return to making workplace arrests. “Worksite operations have to happen,” Homan told Fox & Friends last month. A group of workers sued the Trump administration in 2018 after an immigration raid at a Tennessee facility, and a federal court approved a $1 million settlement that included some legal protections for workers. Both Trump and Homan have said money is no object when it comes to their agenda. “It’s not a question of a price tag,” Trump said last month . “We have no choice. When people have killed and murdered, when drug lords have destroyed countries, and now they’re going to go back to those countries because they’re not staying here. There is no price tag.” Homan admitted to NewsNation that the operation “would be expensive,” but “it’s going to save taxpayers a lot of money in the long run.” “Right now, we’re spending billions of dollars on free airline tickets, free hotel rooms, free medical care, free meals, the education system,” he said. “We need funding. We obviously need to buy more detention beds because everybody we arrest, we have to detain to work on those removal efforts and get travel documents, get flight arrangements. So we need more detention beds.” Homan told CNN that means adding at least 100,000 beds, more than doubling the 40,000 detention beds already allocated in ICE funding. He also wants to boost the number of ICE agents. “They’re not going to be out arresting people, but they can be a force multiplier in doing things we need to do that doesn’t require a badge and a gun,” he said. Using the full force of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies to identify, detain and deport millions of people living in the country without legal permission could cost more than $967 billion over 10 years, according to the American Immigration Council. Undocumented immigrants paid federal, state, and local taxes of $8,889 per person in 2022, the group found. For every 1 million undocumented immigrants, public services receive $8.9 billion in tax revenue. Those immigrants, despite paying into government services like healthcare and Social Security, are not eligible for them. The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy reported Trump’s plans would eliminate 22 percent of American farmworkers, 15 percent of construction workers, eight percent of service workers, eight percent of manufacturing workers and six percent of transportation workers.Radical Jaguar rebrand and new logo sparks ire online NEW YORK (AP) — A promotional video for a rebrand of British luxury car brand Jaguar is being criticized online for showing models in brightly colored outfits — and no car.

Kennedy was assassinated as his motorcade passed through downtown Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. Even after over six decades, conspiracy theories about what happened that day still swirl and the desire to follow every thread of information hasn’t waned. President-elect Donald Trump made promises over the summer that if reelected he would declassify the remaining records. At this point, only a few thousand of millions of pages of governmental records related to the assassination have yet to be fully released. And those who have studied what's been released so far say that the public shouldn’t anticipate any earth-shattering revelations even if the remaining files are declassified.

Around 50 houses were evacuated after the Civil Protection agency issued the alert, along with guests at the famous Blue Lagoon resort, according to the national broadcaster. The repeated eruptions over the past year have caused damage to the town of Grindavík and forced people to relocate.

In their final fixture of 2024, Kai Havertz scored the only goal of the game midway through the opening period. Arsenal’s victory takes them back to within six points of leaders Liverpool, having played one match more than the Reds, and a point clear of Chelsea following their Boxing Day defeat to Fulham.

They surveyed over 3,000 Americans to find out how often they listen to Podcasts and what their favorite podcasts are.

What is New Jersey's Favorite Podcast? The number-one Podcast in America is also the most popular listen for New Jersey residents. The Joe Rogan Experience has Millions of Subscribers and Listeners which is impressive for a podcast with polarizing socio-political content. New Jersey is one of 23 states where The Joe Rogan Experience is the most listened-to Podcast. The biggest reason this is a surprising result has to do with the fact that New Jersey has been a consistent Democratic Party voting state in Presidential Elections since 1992. Joe Rogan's Politics and Social fall in line with Libertarians which has earned him criticism from "Liberals" and "Left-Wing Politicos". The second reason why this is a surprising result is because of the exploding popularity that Former Eagles All-Pro Center Jason Kelce has experienced over the last several years. Kelce becoming on of the most popular Philadelphia Sports Athletes was not enough to elevate his The New Heights Show Podcast into New Jersey's number one spot. Co-hosted by Jason and his brother, Travis Kelce, the podcast is currently the 10th most popular in America. New Heights Podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce is the number-one podcast in Missouri and Iowa, an area that has many Kansas City Chiefs fans. There are numerous diehard Eagles fans in New Jersey and Jason Kelce's growing charity event in Sea Isle City has broken records every summer. But none of that was enough to earn the New Heights Show Podcast more listeners than the Joe Rogan Experience. Here are the Top Ten Most Listened-to Podcasts in America in 2024: 1.
