The official list of exempt items released by the White House includes [printed books] But the reassurance this offers libraries is limited For libraries that depend on international vendors to supply books the ripple effects of Trump’s tariffs could include disrupted shipping routes and a growing pile of administrative red tape this is a moment in which libraries must lead with intention.” Katina, Apr. 24 Jennifer Peterson writes: “In my time as a youth services librarian I visited with thousands of school children each school year in the fall and spring months to promote books Here are my top five tips I can offer as you get ready to promote your summer reading program to students this spring.” ALSC Blog, Apr. 26 Hannah Weinberg writes: “This week marks 100 days since President Trump’s January 20 inauguration.

Undeterred, Melugin boarded a Texas Department of Public Safety helicopter and continued recording and airing the video of masses gathered beneath the bridge trying to escape the 100-plus degree heat and sun The FAA withdrew its drone ban by the end of the day Reporters logically asked White House press secretary Jen Psaki whether the illegal aliens amassed under the bridge in squalid conditions were being tested and/or vaccinated for COVID-19 especially when the White House just announced that all foreign nationals flying to the U.S must show proof of vaccination to enter the country Psaki answered that the Del Rio illegal aliens were only tested for COVID-19 if they showed symptoms and seemed to make up an illogical justification; namely, it was because “they are not intending to stay here for a lengthy period of time.” A visible indicator that these illegal aliens intend to stay permanently are the photographs of the ditched documents from Chile and other countries where many of these Haitian migrants were already resettled for years Wanting to shed evidence of pre-existing protection in a third country these illegal aliens will claim they just came from Haiti and cannot return there due to the possibility of persecution Safe resettlement elsewhere first makes them ineligible for asylum in the U.S Pursuing asylum anyway is fraud and should be denied Senators asked Mayorkas for the numbers of Del Rio illegal aliens deported or processed into the U.S Members of Congress asked again the next day He complained that he’s working 18-hour days which should have been plenty of time to ask Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement for the data Reporters asked Psaki for the numbers. She referred them to the Department of Homeland Security, but implied that most Haitians are being deported Psaki continues to mislead the America people by intentionally masking the truth behind convoluted jargon such as “removal proceedings” when referring to what the Department of Homeland Security is doing with illegal aliens suggesting they are being deported when she knows they are in fact being released into the U.S Administration officials don’t ever mention their mass catch-and-release operations. The truth is, the administration is releasing numbers of illegal aliens the size of this Del Rio group into the interior every week What do the Biden administration and the left want to talk about about Border Patrol agents on horseback used “whips” (reins) to attack Haitians illegally crossing the border The administration placed the agents on administrative leave and prohibited use of horses in Del Rio until at least their pointless investigation is complete The Border Patrol agents have been abandoned and thrown under the bus by their own departmental secretary and now vilified by the president of the United States and had reputations irreparably harmed in an effort to deflect from the out-of-control catastrophic crisis at our southern border Meanwhile, the White House ordered the Del Rio bridge area to be cleared out in advance of a nearby Black Lives Matter protest this weekend This week in Del Rio was just a peek into the 2021 border catastrophe. The images of large numbers of illegal aliens under the bridge have been an annoyance to the Biden White House.

The Lamborghini Miura turned 50 last year, so at the end of 2016, Lamborghini deemed it prudent to take the old girl back to the farm. The Miura farm, that is. So that bright yellow, 385bhp V12-engined Miura SV you see above - normally resident of the Lamborghini Museum in Sant'Agata - made the arduous 600km trek from Madrid to a small bull breeding farm in Lora del Rio, Andalusia.  The farm is run by the Miura family; it was in 1966 that Don Eduardo famously met with Ferrucio, who would later take the farm's name and apply it to the first ever Lambo supercar. Because bulls, and speed, and power, and so on, and so on... Today, the farm - itself founded 175 years ago - is run by Don Eduardo's sons, Antonio and, um, Eduardo, who were treated to the sight not only of the SV's homecoming, but also of six more rather lavishly coloured Huracáns and Aventadors. A bit of support for their elderly sibling, no doubt.

partners are: the UB research group PhysComp (headed by Albert Díaz Guilera) devoted to study complex networks from statistical physics perspective; the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre (Xavier Rubio) expert on semantic models and knowledge management (Bernardo Rondelli) Roman amphorae can be considered as the best archaeological marker of Roman Empire economic production and transactions They are a unique indicator of social relationships and chronological dynamics because of their distribution throughout the Empire the precise information contained in their epigraphy (similar to modern trademarks and labels) and their diachronic persistence the project EPNet proposes an interdisciplinary framework to formulate trade dynamics models and their main routes The authors of the project think that other systems studied by physics have similar properties and behaviours to the ones of social sciences It is important to remember that complex networks have already been applied to the analysis of economy and trade between companies banks and countries; the project EPNet proposes to apply complex networks to the ancient trade of wine Computer simulations will act like a ʻvirtual labʼ in which hypothesis about Roman economic and political mechanisms will be formulated and validated computer simulations have been mainly used to study prehistoric societies but they have been scarcely apply to more recent time periods experts on semantic analysis collaborate in the project; they will contribute to define the values and parameters used in computer simulations Roman trade system is considered the first European complex trade network Many theories and hypothesis about its organization and relation to the Empireʼs army and politics have been formulated Some authors
