On Monday, Chancellor Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick turned aside a request from Musk’s lawyers to reverse a ruling she announced in January that had thrown out the compensation plan. The judge ruled then that Musk effectively controlled Tesla’s board and had engineered the outsize pay package during sham negotiations . Lawyers for a Tesla shareholder who sued to block the pay package contended that shareholders who had voted for the 10-year plan in 2018 had been given misleading and incomplete information. In their defense, Tesla’s board members asserted that the shareholders who ratified the pay plan a second time in June had done so after receiving full disclosures, thereby curing all the problems the judge had cited in her January ruling. As a result, they argued, Musk deserved the pay package for having raised Tesla’s market value by billions of dollars. McCormick rejected that argument. In her 103-page opinion, she ruled that under Delaware law, Tesla’s lawyers had no grounds to reverse her January ruling “based on evidence they created after trial.” On Monday night, Tesla posted on X, the social media platform owned by Musk, that the company will appeal. The appeal would be filed with the Delaware Supreme Court, the only state appellate court Tesla can pursue. Experts say a ruling would likely come in less than a year. “The ruling, if not overturned, means that judges and plaintiffs’ lawyers run Delaware companies rather than their rightful owners — the shareholders,” Tesla argued. Later, on X, Musk unleashed a blistering attack on the judge, asserting that McCormick is “a radical far left activist cosplaying as a judge.” Legal authorities generally suggest that McCormick’s ruling was sound and followed the law. Charles Elson, founding director of the Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware, said that in his view, McCormick was right to rule that after Tesla lost its case in the original trial, it created improper new evidence by asking shareholders to ratify the pay package a second time. Had she allowed such a claim, he said, it would cause a major shift in Delaware’s laws against conflicts of interest given the unusually close relationship between Musk and Tesla’s board. “Delaware protects investors — that’s what she did,” said Elson, who has followed the court for more than three decades. “Just because you’re a ‘superstar CEO’ doesn’t put you in a separate category.” Elson said he thinks investors would be reluctant to put money into Delaware companies if there were exceptions to the law for “special people.” Elson said that in his opinion, the court is likely to uphold McCormick’s ruling. Experts say no. Rulings on state laws are normally left to state courts. Brian Dunn, program director for the Institute of Compensation Studies at Cornell University, said it’s been his experience that Tesla has no choice but to stay in the Delaware courts for this compensation package. The company could try to reconstitute the pay package and seek approval in Texas, where it may expect more friendlier judges. But Dunn, who has spent 40 years as an executive compensation consultant, said it’s likely that some other shareholder would challenge the award in Texas because it’s excessive compared with other CEOs’ pay plans. “If they just want to turn around and deliver him $56 billion, I can’t believe somebody wouldn’t want to litigate it,” Dunn said. “It’s an unconscionable amount of money.” Almost certainly. Tesla stock is trading at 15 times the exercise price of stock options in the current package in Delaware, Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas wrote in a note to investors. Tesla’s share price has doubled in the past six months, Jonas wrote. At Monday’s closing stock price, the Musk package is now worth $101.4 billion, according to Equilar, an executive data firm. And Musk has asked for a subsequent pay package that would give him 25% of Tesla’s voting shares. Musk has said he is uncomfortable moving further into artificial intelligence with the company if he doesn’t have 25% control. He currently holds about 13% of Tesla’s outstanding shares.
It was the first time the two FIFA best women’s coach of the year winners had gone toe to toe on the touchline, and more than two years since the two top-ranked women’s sides in the world had met at the London venue. Wiegman’s European champions were without a shot on target in the first half, while the visitors had a goal chalked off for offside early in the second half. Hayes’ Olympic gold medallists saw a penalty call reversed after a VAR check, and – though England looked brighter in the second half – Wiegman’s side were never able to find a way through a resolute US defence. Wiegman elected to start Paris St Germain keeper Mary Earps, while Chelsea captain Millie Bright was on the bench for a second straight England encounter. Bright’s former Blues boss Hayes fielded a USA line-up that included seven players who featured when the Americans last played at Wembley on October 7, 2022. US men’s boss Mauricio Pochettino, whose single season in charge of Chelsea overlapped with Hayes’ 12-year tenure at Stamford Bridge, was also in attendance and was spotted catching up with Wiegman and Hayes ahead of kick-off. Jessica Naz looked to get England off to an early start with a cross claimed by Alyssa Naeher, who will retire from international football after the Americans’ European trip. Alyssa Thompson unleashed an effort forcing Earps to leap into action, but the game soon settled, England still looking for a breakthrough when Jess Park directed an effort wide. Alex Greenwood could not connect with Lucy Bronze at the back post from a free-kick, while Emily Fox outpaced her Arsenal team-mate Beth Mead, beating her to a good ball from Bronze following a promising break down the right. The world’s top-ranked side continued to enjoy the possession advantage against their hosts, while clear-cut chances remained elusive. Hayes’ side came marginally closer to opening the scoring when Casey Krueger tested Earps with a low attempt through a crowd just after the half hour, and deadlock remained intact after the England keeper smothered Sam Coffey’s off-balance effort late on in the period. USA captain Lindsey Horan had the ball in the back of the net shortly after the restart but the offside flag was raised. The Americans continued to threaten, first from substitute Yazmeen Ryan’s cross, picked out by Earps, then another attempt from forward Horan. England finally worked the ball deep into the visitors’ half, where Park’s effort was nodded away and Leah Williamson could only head straight at Naeher from the resulting corner. The pace picked up as the hour approached and a more determined England side started to emerge, but remained frustrated by the American defending. Ryan had just Greenwood to beat when she fired a shot into what appeared to be the chest of the Manchester City defender, but referee Lina Lehtovaara initially awarded the visitors a penalty. With VAR available, the Finnish official was called to the monitor and subsequently reversed her decision. Hayes rang more substitutes, while Wiegman’s first changes came in the form of Fran Kirby and Chloe Kelly for Park and Naz in the 75th minute. Mead, surrounded by a trio of blue shirts, sent Naeher leaping, though her attempt looked certain to be wide, and the sides soon had just 10 minutes left to snap the stalemate. Jess Carter did well to track Ryan, who patiently controlled the ball inside the 18-yard box but was denied by a diving Earps and neither side was able to make a difference in four minutes of stoppage time.

NEW DELHI: Representatives of National Democratic Alliance (NDA), at their meeting at BJP president J P Nadda's residence, are said to have resolved to present a united front against the opposition's recent criticism on the BR Ambedkar issue. This meeting, held on the birth centenary of former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee, saw an assembly of key figures including home minister Amit Shah, Andhra Pradesh CM N Chandrababu Naidu and leaders from various NDA constituents. The row erupted from what Shah described as a "doctored" version of his statement during a recent parliamentary session, which was leveraged by opposition parties to allege disrespect towards the Dalit icon. According to sources, Shah stressed the need for a coherent counter-narrative to dismantle what he termed an attempt by the opposition to create a "fake narrative". He said his statements were misrepresented and were aimed to sow discord and political unrest. A senior party functionary said, "The Ambedkar issue was integral to the discussion. It came up that Congress MPs did not react when Shah, in his speech in RS, made the remark. But later, Congress representative held a meeting where Rahul Gandhi was present and they decided to make the remark an issue to be highlighted. The way things progressed indicates Congress conspired to make Shah's comment an issue only to draw attention." Stay updated with the latest news on Times of India .

Any day off from work or school is a good excuse to go to the library. And what better way to get in the holiday spirit than dusting off a favorite seasonal book? Make an activity of it by allowing each person in your group to choose their favorite book and take turns reading their favorite parts. Whether you live by the mountains or the sea, in the city or in the plains, we know your town has a beautiful place to park or spend a little time. As you feel the essence of the season wash over you, gather up your family or friends, unfurl a blanket and choose a scenic spot to discuss what you’re most grateful for this holiday time of year. If you want to exercise but intense cardio is not your thing, yoga is a low-impact activity that can have a big impact on your mental health. Free yoga courses abound across the country. And Youtube videos mean it’s easy to partake without spending a buck. The spirit of the holiday season is more than gifts and baked goods. It’s about giving back.

Nio ET9 launches with prices starting at just USD90,450 On December 21 at the Nio Day event in Guangzhou Nio launched its new ET9 flagship sedan. The car claims 9 flagship experiences and offers many firsts in terms of technology and comfort. Priced from 660,000 yuan (90,450 USD) to 818,000 yuan (112,100 USD), the versions are as follows: The first edition is limited to 999 cars and has various upgrades to the standard car mainly in terms of interior materials and exclusive badges. Nio will also offer the ET9 with battery as a service which means the user can rent the battery monthly. Deliveries of the Nio ET9 will commence in early. In terms of both length and width, it is the largest Nio to date, with measurements of 5324 and 2016 mm, respectively. Although Nio are calling the car a sedan, both in silhouette and height (1620 mm) it is more consistent with an SUV coupe and it has a similar style to the ES6 and ES7. The ET9 has a wheelbase of 3250 mm. This puts it towards the upper limit of the third-generation swap stations for wheelbase. Third-generation stations can accommodate cars with up to a 3300 mm wheelbase. Perhaps more significantly, the ET9 will not be compatible with first and second-generation Nio swap stations due to the length of the wheelbase. Despite Nio’s new NT 3.0 platform already being used for the Onvo L60, the ET9 will be the first model from the Nio brand to use the new platform. It has the first global 900 V high-voltage architecture in China. The ET9 uses a 120 kWh battery pack with an energy density of 292 Wh/kg. Nio claim that it’s possible to take on the equivalent of a 255 km range in 5 minutes with fast charging. A fourth-generation battery swap station should be able to swap the battery in 144 seconds. Global 900V architecture means it can be used with 500V to 1000V charging piles with a peak charging power of up to 600 kW and a peak current rate of 772 A. This gives it a 5C charging capability. As already seen in many videos, the ET9 has a Skyride intelligent chassis system. Notably, this is a fully active suspension system capable of 1000 torque adjustments per second and four-wheel independent control to meet the needs of different driving scenarios. This not only enables the ET9 to do party tricks like tabletop football and juggling a ball but also delivers an incredibly smooth ride. Also featured as part of the system is rear-wheel steering, which is probably just as well, given the length of the car, along with a drive-by-wire. This means there is no mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the wheels. Such technology has existed in aviation for many years but is relatively new to cars. To date, only a few, mainly EV’s, have been equipped with the technology, which is also known as steer-by-wire. One notable user is the Tesla Cybertruck. The rear wheel steering helps the car have a turning circle diameter of 10.9 meters. Nio’s flagship rides on 23-inch Pirelli PZERO EV-specific tires. The hubcap inside floats ensuring the Nio badge always points up. Midnight ceramic blue is a new color exclusive to the ET9 and appears to be the car’s signature hue. Inside the new ET9 is the biggest departure yet from the standard Nio-layout that has remained largely unchanged in overall look since the first generation ES8. While, there is still a swiveling Nomi on top of the dashboard the 15.6-inch infotainment screen is horizontally oriented. Furthermore, there is now a long, thin strip 48-inch 5K instrument panel that runs across the car’s width. Nio claims the car has the industry’s first full range AR head-up display. This has ultra smooth coverage and overlays information such as where to stop for battery swap stations. Attached to that drive-by-wire system is a new two-spoke rectangular steering wheel. The drive selector has also moved from the traditional center console position on previous Nio models to a steering wheel column-mounted stalk. Nio claims that the ET9 brings a business class-like experience. Much of that is aimed at the rear seat occupants. A four-seater, the center console continues through to the rear. There are two screens mounted on the back of the front seats for rear passenger entertainment. The seat cushion width is up to 582 mm, and the backrest angle can be adjusted to 45 degrees. Two major features of the ET9 are the Sky Island unobstructed view panoramic roof and the Executive Bridge, which is the name given by Nio to the through center console. There are blinds for the windows and also the center console features a tray table which can be adjusted from any angle. Underneath is a fridge with 10 liter capacity that can support a temperature range from -2 degrees up to 55 degree Celsius. Powering the ET9 is Nio’s new, self-developed 900V Thunder electric drive system . This includes the world’s first 925V W-Pin synchronous permanent magnet electric motor, which has a peak power output of 340 kW. Mounted on the rear axle, it weighs just 79 kg, resulting in a power density of 4.3 kW/kg. Meanwhile, the front axle has an asynchronous induction motor with a peak power of 180 kW and a power density of 2.6 kW/kg. The ET9 uses two of Nio’s self-developed Shenji NX9031 autonomous driving chip. Previously, second generation Nio models used the Adam supercomputer, which consists of 4 Nvidia Orin X chips. The computing power of one Shenji NX9031, which is a 5 nm chipset, exceeds the 1016 TOPS of the Adam supercomputer. It has strong image processing capabilities, which, with AI noise reduction algorithms, help the system identify objects shown by the cameras in low light conditions. In the presentation Nio CEO William Li showed a picture of a lake at night which couldn’t be seen in the actual image but after use of the algorithm was clearly visible Sensors include three lidar units and the first use of a 4D millimeter wavelength imaging radar. There are a total of 31 sensors. Two of the Lidar units are side facing wide FOV units with a range of 150 meters. Total Lidar coverage for the car is 350 degrees while camera coverage is a full 360 degrees. The aim is to create autonomous driving which is 20 times safer than a human driver. Also debuting on the ET9 is Nio’s new SkyOS, which it claims is China’s first smart electric vehicle operating system. Superior performance is achieved through high bandwidth, low latency, and large computing power, according to Nio. Source: NioVice-Chancellor of Rani Channamma University C.M. Thyagaraja said the younger generation should equally blend intelligence and worldly wisdom to take on the challenges of the changing world and its pace of transformation driven by technology, climate challenges, and social movements. Delivering the 6th convocation address of the Sharnbasva University at the Poojya Basavarajappa Appa Memorial Auditorium in Kalaburagi on Saturday, he told young graduates that the world would be waiting for them to make a mark, not just through their professional expertise but also through their ability to think and act ethically. “Young graduates should remember that the true measure of a person’s success is their ability to adapt, to serve, and to make the world better than they found it. The living philosophy of Basaveshwara guides you to become responsible global citizens equipped with knowledge, skills and values to confront the challenges of a fast-changing world,” he said. Advising the students to possess the eight qualities – intelligence, strength, fame, courage, fearlessness, good health, sharp wit, and good communication skills – to become a master in any field, Mr. Thyagaraja appealed to them not to run after material wealth which could, at best, stay with them till the end of the life. “There would be no guarantee that the material wealth brings happiness into our lives. Unutilised wealth is like undigested food that torments. Such wealth initially appears thrilling but ends up causing pain and suffering,” he said. Speaking on the troubles and hardships on the way of achieving financial freedom, Mr. Thyagaraja said that one should develop a mindset of working smart in the present with preparation for the future. Chancellor of the University, Sharanabaswappa Appa, conferred the honorary doctorate to two personalities – ISRO scientist Ramanagouda Nadagouda and publisher Basavaraj Konek. Sri Sadashiva swami Peetadhipathi of the Sri Kottalabasaveshwar Temple and president of the Sri Kottalabasaveshwara Bharatiya Shikshana Samiti, who was also selected for the honorary doctorate, was absent. As many as 39 meritorious students were honoured with gold and silver medals, and nine meritorious students with cash prizes instituted under different names. A total number of 939 undergraduate students and 571 postgraduate students were awarded degree certificates. Seven students got their PhD degrees.

Air Circuit Breaker WEW1-2000 ACB: Withdrawable and Fixed TypePackham resigns as RSPCA president after animal cruelty claims at approved farms
Published 8:22 am Saturday, December 21, 2024 By Terri Cowart Frazier The annual Chili for Children Cook-Off will be put on simmer in 2025, but things will heat back up in 2026. Event organizer Sabrina Lynn, of The Radio People, said there were several reasons for skipping 2025, one of which is a planned reboot of the event that will include the use of more technology. “We want to bring the event into the future with things like links to register your teams and links where volunteers can sign up to help,” she said. Lynn is also hoping to get more of the community involved, which she hopes will bring in additional volunteers. “I need some help. I need some community involvement so I am going to be looking for committee leaders so I can divvy up some of the responsibilities,” she said. Lynn just underwent knee replacement surgery, which is another reason the Chili for Children Cook-Off was postponed a year. She said she is healing but would not be fully recovered by the time the cook-off was scheduled in early 2025. “I was not sure my knee was going to let me go 25,000 steps,” she said, which is what she puts in on the day of the event. But knee surgery will not keep Lynn from beginning work on the 2026 Chili for Children Cook-Off, which is already scheduled for Feb. 1. “The planning is going to start very soon in 2025,” she said. Terri Frazier was born in Cleveland. Shortly afterward, the family moved to Vicksburg.

She has also been the recipient of a First Place award in the MPA’s Better Newspaper Contest’s editorial division for the “Best Feature Story.” Terri graduated from Warren Central High School and Mississippi State University where she received a bachelor’s degree in communications with an emphasis in public relations. Prior to coming to work at The Post a little more than 10 years ago, she did some freelancing at the Jackson Free Press. But for most of her life, she enjoyed being a full-time stay at home mom. Terri is a member of the Crawford Street United Methodist Church. She is a lifetime member of the Vicksburg Junior Auxiliary and is a past member of the Sampler Antique Club and Town and Country Garden Club. She is married to Dr. Walter Frazier. “From staying informed with local governmental issues to hearing the stories of its people, a hometown newspaper is vital to a community. I have felt privileged to be part of a dedicated team at The Post throughout my tenure and hope that with theirs and with local support, I will be able to continue to grow and hone in on my skills as I help share the stories in Vicksburg.
