The outage was the result of a “cooling issue” at the airline’s main data center, according to a message to passengers issued Sunday by Diederik Pen, WestJet’s executive vice president and chief executive officer. While Pen says the issue has been resolved, his statement also acknowledged that the company’s technology systems are “still experiencing some instability.” “Unfortunately, due to the extent of yesterday’s network impact, we continue to see residual outages,” Pen’s statement said....

Harvey Barnes added a second after starting and completing a devastating counter-attack in which he collected James Maddison’s ball inside the area, got away from Abdoulaye Doucouré and fired an emphatic finish past Jordan Pickford. Maddison impressed throughout as Rodgers enjoyed his first Premier League win at Goodison Park, a third win in four games and another clean sheet. Remarkably, the game remained goalless until Tielemans’ superb strike just before half-time....

Mr. Trump also got angry with former Attorney General Bill Barr because he turned to him during the investigation into the uprising. On Thursday night, the House panel broadcast parts of his interview with Mr. Barr, who said that Trump’s false allegations of fraud were “bulls ***” and that he did not want to be “part of it.” Ms Trump, one of her father’s most trusted advisers, told the panel she did not believe the 2020 election had been stolen, saying that what Barr had told her about the election had changed her mind....

“I’m going to make a very big announcement on Tuesday, November 15 at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida,” Trump said at a Save America rally in Vandalia, Ohio on the eve of the midterm elections. “We don’t want anything to detract from the importance of tomorrow,” he added, seemingly in an attempt to explain why he wasn’t announcing his run the same night. Trump was reportedly considering whether to announce the launch of his third presidential campaign on the eve of the election, but Republicans feared his announcement would energize Democrats and alienate independent voters....

Green Lithium, which is backed by commodities trading giant Trafigura, will build a £600m refinery for the battery material at PD Ports’ Teesport, the UK’s fifth largest port. Project backers aim to create 1,000 jobs during the construction phase and enough lithium hydroxide for 1 million electric vehicles each year when the plant is complete. The move comes as confidence in plans to make the north-east of England a hub for green jobs and the electric vehicle industry has been rocked by Britishvolt’s woes....

The weather in Bakhmut tricks the senses, sunny and warm — almost serene. But a deafening blast of outgoing artillery from the critical eastern Ukrainian city shook that notion out of whack, as Ukrainian soldiers on Wednesday launched offensives to try to retake positions from Russian forces. Three men are seen running out of town, one with a microwave strapped to his back. Russia’s war in Ukraine has been going on for nine months....

Hamish De Bretton-Gordon, former head of the British Army’s chemical weapons unit, told Sky News that we can’t assume that Vladimir Putin won’t launch some kind of nuclear attack – and that it could happen in a number of different ways. Speaking to Niall Paterson moments ago, he said: “It would be incredible for Putin to routinely use nuclear weapons. Yet Putin continues to do the unbelievable. “So I don’t think we can assume that he won’t use these kinds of weapons....

“La rédaction de sa thèse est une honte pour la profession”, a déclaré le Conseil de discipline de l’Ordre des avocats dans sa décision. L’ancienne avocate Gloriane Blais, dans une demande d’autorisation d’appel en mars 2021, avait contesté la partialité du juge de la Haute Cour Martin Bureau, invoquant son “incapacité mentale et surtout émotionnelle”. Il a aussi mis en doute la partialité de celui qui avait rejeté en novembre 2020 une poursuite de 35 millions de dollars intentée par un de ses clients contre Investissement Québec....

The “high-level panel of experts”, set up in March by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to advise on rules to improve the integrity and transparency of net zero commitments by industry, regions and cities, He said climate plans must include deep cuts in greenhouse gases before 2030, and not delay action until 2050. He stressed that serious commitments must prioritize immediate cuts in absolute emissions, with the use of carbon offsets – an often controversial practice that allows companies and governments to pay for cuts elsewhere rather than reducing their own pollution – to be used sparingly in the coming years, if at all....

Washington (AFP) – US authorities charged five Russians on Wednesday for allegedly sending US electronic components to Russian arms manufacturers, some of which were found on the battlefield in Ukraine. Separately, three Latvians and a Ukrainian were charged with trying to ship a high-precision American industrial mill to Russia that the Justice Department said could be used by weapons manufacturers or in a nuclear weapons program. The Justice Department said the two schemes involved condom companies in several countries, including Dubai and Germany, and were designed to evade US and global sanctions on Russia....

Russian military officials discussed how and under what conditions Russia would use a tactical nuclear weapon on the battlefield in Ukraine, according to a U.S. intelligence assessment described to CNN by multiple sources who have read it. The assessment, compiled by the National Intelligence Council, is not a product of high confidence and is not raw intelligence but rather analysis, multiple people who have read it told CNN. For this reason, some officials believe that the conversations reflected in the document may have been taken out of context and do not necessarily indicate that Russia is preparing to use a nuclear weapon....

Vice President Tim Ryan has already been running a Senate campaign tailored to Ohio’s increasingly conservative electorate, which made it less than surprising that he stepped onto a Fox News set on Tuesday, territory where most fellow Democrats fear to tread. . In an hour-long town hall, Ryan and his Republican challenger, author and investor JD Vance, took questions from the audience, with anchors Martha MacCallum and Bret Baier moderating....

However, not all organizations experience the same pressures. This is why some creatures today still have eyes that are quite simple, or why some have no eyes at all. These organisms exemplify eyes that are “frozen” in time. They provide snapshots of the past or “checkpoints” of how the eye has transformed throughout its evolutionary journey. Scientists are studying the genes, anatomy and vision of these creatures to figure out a road map of how the eye came to be....
