Chinese military trials 'robot dogs' armed with machine guns

Hardwicks Kyneton is to cease facilitating smaller beef and sheep kills in the new year, leaving many of Victoria's small producers without a processor. or signup to continue reading In a letter sent to clients last week, the company announced that it would no longer be able to accommodate service kill requests that do not meet the minimum volumes of 15 for beef and 50 for lamb. The change would come into effect from January 1, 2025. However, as the company's final service kill day will be on December 14, producers were effectively given two weeks of notice. vice president of primary sales Murray Jeffrey urged clients to keep the announcement confidential. "After a detailed review of our existing arrangements, we have revised our service kill arrangements, regrettably to include updated minimum volumes for the foreseeable future," he said. "We appreciate your understanding and acknowledge that this may impact how you may do business with us." Jono Hurst and Natalie Hardy, Blampied, had been supplying cattle to Hardwicks at Kyneton since 2016 and were now left with few processor options. "The timing was just awful," Ms Hardy said. "Give us some time to at least get something together." The couple typically killed two cattle a month from their , supplying to local markets and restaurants. They recently signed a lease on a further 100 acres of agistment and purchased 10 new pedigree heifers, hoping to increase their output and kill four steers or heifers a month in 2025. The Hardwicks announcement had thrown a complete spanner in the works. Fortunately, as it had for many similar producers, the Meat Crew team at Colac had agreed to take some of Ms Hardy's cattle for slaughter at Geelong. However, she insisted this was far from ideal. "It's not ideal for what we do because of the distance but we have no choice," she said. The 1.5 hour round trip to Kyneton would become a five-hour round trip to Colac every month and she said the extra distance would have an impact on animal and farmer welfare. The couple planned their finishing program 12 months in advance and the short notice from Hardwicks now had them forced to re-evaluate. "Meat Crew are helping out at the moment where they can but they can only do so much," Ms Hardy said. The Hardwicks announcement came just days after the publication of a Victorian parliamentary report which recommended that processing facilities be made more readily available for local and small-scale livestock producers. The parliament's Legislative Assembly Environment and Planning Committee said government should define 'micro-abattoir' in the Meat Industry Act, and make micro-abattoirs a section one use in the Farming Zone, Rural Activity Zone, Green Wedge Zone and Green Wedge. The move would enable improved planning application processes for those looking to invest in micro-abattoirs within farming communities. The Australian Food Sovereignty Alliance welcomed the recommendation but upon hearing of the Hardwicks decision, just 48 hours later, the organisation wrote an urgent letter to the government. The alliance's president Tammi Jonas called on Agriculture Minister Ros Spence to act. Ms Jonas said the committee report recommended that the "Victorian government take immediate steps to negotiate ongoing access for smaller producers in impacted communities and pursue long-term reform to reduce smaller producers' reliance on larger commercial abattoirs". "We rejoiced at this and other very positive recommendations in the report," she said. "Today, however, we received notice that Hardwicks - the largest, most central abattoir that has conducted service kills for its entire 50-year history - is ceasing service kills of less than 15 cattle or 50 sheep effective January 1." She warned the change would "impact thousands of small and medium scale farmers". "In particular, every farm who sells their meat directly to their community will no longer have access to slaughter," she said. "The other potential abattoirs such as Benalla and Wangaratta do not have capacity to absorb all the displaced farmers, and for most, this option would substantially increase travel times with obvious major negative impacts on animal welfare." Ms Jonas called for an urgent meeting with the Minister and her officials to address the issue. "Not only are farmers affected, of course, local butcher shops and restaurants will also lose access to local meat, with cascading effects on the resilience and viability of rural communities," she said. Morwell MP Martin Cameron was a member of the parliamentary committee which recommended for greater for Victorian producers. "It's like anything, the little fella gets forgotten about," he said. "There is an actual need now for the micro-abattoirs." He urged the government to consider the committee's recommendation.

Assad exit puts US at perilous crossroads in Syria‘Doesnt matter who we play’- Liverpool star confirms squad’s faith in Arne SlotPolice had to use pepper spray to break up the players, who threw punches and shoves in the melee that overshadowed the rivalry game. Ohio State police said in a statement “multiple officers representing Ohio and Michigan deployed pepper spray.” Ohio State police will investigate the fight, according to the statement. After the Ohio State players confronted their bitter rivals at midfield, defensive end Jack Sawyer grabbed the top of the Wolverines' flag and ripped it off the pole as the brawl moved toward the Michigan bench. Eventually, police officers rushed into the ugly scene. Ohio State coach Ryan Day said he understood the actions of his players. “There are some prideful guys on our team who weren't going to sit back and let that happen,” Day said. The two Ohio State players made available after the game brushed off questions about it. Michigan running back Kalel Mullings, who rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown, didn't like how the Buckeyes players involved themselves in the Wolverines' postgame celebration. He called it “classless.” “For such a great game, you hate to see stuff like that after the game," he said in an on-field interview with Fox Sports. “It’s just bad for the sport, bad for college football. But at the end of the day, you know some people got to — they got to learn how to lose, man. ... We had 60 minutes, we had four quarters, to do all that fighting.” Michigan coach Sherrone Moore said everybody needs to do better. “So much emotions on both sides," he said. "Rivalry games get heated, especially this one. It’s the biggest one in the country, so we got to handle that better.” Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

Texas Sues NCAA Over Transgender Athletes' Participation in Women's SportsBengaluru techie suicide: Atul Subhash's wife and in-laws booked; Here are the chargesFrom the Newsroom: News from holidays of the pastLOS ANGELES — In what could be considered the end of an era, the Industry on Thursday announced that Yuval Sharon will step down as artistic director of the groundbreaking L.A. opera company. The company's executive director, Tim Griffin, who came on board in summer 2023, will expand his title to become both executive and artistic director. The Industry's co-artistic directors, Ash Fure and Malik Gaines, who joined forces in an artistic director cooperative with Sharon in 2021, will form a new artistic advisory council. Its goal, the company said, will be to encourage dialogue about opera across the arts and help Griffin select future artists-in-residence. Sharon will need to spend more time in New York City, where earlier this year the Metropolitan Opera announced that Sharon would direct its next "Ring" cycle beginning in 2028. He's set to make his debut with the company next season with a new production of "Tristan und Isolde." In 2012 Sharon landed the Industry on the map with an exuberantly unconventional new opera by Anne LeBaron called "Crescent City." When the show premiered at an experimental art space in Atwater Village, Times Classical Music Critic Mark Swed wrote: "LeBaron's opera is the first project of an industrious, and potentially groundbreaking, new enterprise called The Industry that was founded by Yuval Sharon, a young director with his fingers in many of L.A.'s different and distinctive art pies." The prescient headline to that review? "Industry's remarkable 'Crescent City' reshapes L.A. opera." In the years that followed, the Industry didn't just reshape the city's opera scene, it radically transformed it. Sharon rose to become a major star of a cadre of artists working to disrupt the art form — to make it less refined and restrictive, and more responsive to the changing landscape of the 21st century. Sharon also sought to broaden opera's tent, to welcome in young, diverse audiences and to expand opportunities for women and artists of color. He won a MacArthur genius grant in the process and penned the book "A New Philosophy of Opera," which detailed a thriving future for the changing genre. Among Sharon's most memorable — and mind-bending — accomplishments was his 2015 opera "Hopscotch," which took place in 24 vehicles driving on the roads of L.A. The logistics were staggering, and when naysayers said it couldn't be done, Sharon became fond of asking, "why not?" If "Hopscotch" seemed tailor made for the fast-moving age of social media, 2020's "Sweet Land," staged at Angeles State Historic Park, plunged into deeper water. By exploring themes of immigration, displacement and the genocidal conquest at the heart of the American origin story, the production earned rave reviews before closing early as COVID darkened stages across the country. That same year, Sharon expanded his reach by signing on as artistic director of Detroit Opera and quickly making a splash with a drive-through production of Wagner's "Götterdämmerung" in a parking garage. His contract with the company was recently extended through 2028. Sharon also has worked with Berlin State Opera, Lyric Opera of Chicago and Santa Fe Opera. Fans of the Industry will no doubt wonder if last summer's "The Comet/Poppea" was the last show that Sharon directed for the company. The announcement Thursday about Sharon's transition to the title of founder notes that he will "continue supporting The Industry's next steps, attending upcoming performances and conceiving future projects unique to The Industry's identity." Sharon and the Industry will celebrate the company's legacy and future on Jan. 30 at downtown's Bradbury Building with a Decade Party.

60 Years Before Wicked, a Movie Musical That Made Your Eyes SingAssad exit puts US at perilous crossroads in Syria

Fox News’ Danamarie McNicholl reports on the dangerous journey into the U.S. documented on TikTok. Authorities have arrested six Guatemalan human smugglers linked to a 2021 semi-truck crash that killed more than 50 migrants and injured more than 100, the Department of Justice announced this week. This comes three years after the tragic accident that occurred in Chiapas, Mexico , which killed and maimed scores of migrants, including children. Four of the Guatemalan nationals – Tomas Quino Canil, 36; Alberto Marcario Chitic, 31; Oswaldo Manuel Zavala Quino, 24; and Josefa Quino Canil De Zavala, 42 – were arrested by Guatemalan law enforcement and surrendered to U.S. authorities. Another smuggler – Jorge Agapito Ventura, 32 – was taken into custody by U.S. law enforcement at his home in Cleveland, Texas. The name of the sixth smuggler was blacked out in court documents from the federal court in Texas. According to Guatemalan Interior Minister Francisco Jiménez, the smugglers are part of a Guatemalan criminal group called "Los Quinos." All six were indicted in connection with the crash in a federal court for the Southern District of Texas.

(AP Photo) According to the indictment, all six smugglers conspired between October 2021 and February 2023 to facilitate the travel of migrants from Guatemala through Mexico with the United States as the intended destination. The indictment alleges that the smugglers recruited Guatemalan migrants to enter the U.S. illegally, collected payments from them and even distributed written scripts to migrant children on what to say if apprehended by U.S. immigration authorities. During the journey, the smugglers moved the migrants on foot and on buses, cattle trucks and trailers. On Dec. 9, 2021, migrants being transported by the smugglers in a trailer crashed into a steel pedestrian bridge near a small town called Tuxtla Gutierrez, resulting in more than 50 deaths.

(AP Photo) Rescue workers discovered the crash with migrants inside the cargo trailer tossed and crushed in a pile of both the living and the dead. The trailer had been loaded with around 200 migrants. In a statement released this week, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said: "Human smugglers should heed these charges and arrests as a warning: you will be held accountable for your deadly crimes." " The Justice Department is holding accountable the individuals who we allege preyed on vulnerable migrants and are responsible for this heinous crime that resulted in the deaths of over 50 people and injured over 100 more," said Garland. "We will continue to work across agencies and across borders to stop the scourge of human smuggling."

"Today, we reiterate our commitment to ensuring that those allegedly responsible for exploiting the vulnerabilities of families seeking refuge and opportunity face the full force of the law," said Hamdani. The six are being charged with conspiracy to bring undocumented aliens to the United States, placing life in jeopardy, causing serious bodily injuries and causing death. The penalties for these crimes include death or imprisonment up to life. Peter Pinedo is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.Billionaires' wealth more than doubles in 10 years: UBS
