'Christmas on Call,' 'Three Wiser Men and a Boy' and more: How to watch the new Hallmark holiday movies coming out this weekendPARSIPPANY, NJ – November 25, 2024, Nov. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ: LINC), a national leader in specialized technical training for more than 75 years, announces the graduation of eight new technicians from its specialized Johnson Controls International (JCI) Academy program at the Denver, CO campus. This is the first group to graduate from the Denver location; the JCI Academy has also operated at Lincoln’s Columbia, MD campus since the Fall of 2022. Since the inception of Lincoln Tech’s partnership with JCI in 2018, more than 500 students have graduated from Lincoln schools and gone straight to work at JCI locations across the country. “Our partnership with Johnson Controls enables us to broaden our innovative training programs, providing graduates with hands-on experience and direct pathways to careers that align with market needs,” says Scott Shaw, Lincoln Tech’s President and CEO. “We are proud to contribute to building a future-ready talent pool that ensures the efficient and sustainable operation of our building systems.” The graduating class celebrated its milestone on Friday, November 15th at the Denver campus – when the ribbon was also officially cut on the Johnson Controls Academy classroom. The graduates – six of whom had previously attended Lincoln Tech, along with two current JCI employee who were advancing their skill sets – will move into positions at JCI branches in Alaska, Illinois, Kansas, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Utah. As entry-level technicians, they’ll begin careers installing, troubleshooting, repairing and maintaining fire and security alarm systems on JCI-operated buildings. Marcus Biart, a graduate of the Electrical and Electronic Systems Technology program at Lincoln Tech’s Mahwah campus, enrolled in the JCI Academy to further his training and will go on to a position at JCI’s Fort Worth, TX location. “I’ve never experienced anything like this before,” he told his fellow graduates when speaking at Friday’s ceremony. “JCI’s instructors were willing to teach me, and I was eager to learn. Thank you for giving a young man like me a chance.” Mike Schade, VP of Human Resources at Johnson Controls, was among the speakers to congratulate the graduates on their successes. “You all wanted to do something unique and exciting with your life,” Schade said. You had a vision. And vision is an important word here – at Johnson Controls not only do we want to have great technicians and help build their careers, we want to help build the trades for our economy and our country. The work we do saves lives and saves the planet.” The JCI Academy at Lincoln Tech provides six weeks of intensive hands-on training designed to close the skilled labor gap and prepare future technicians for security and fire installation and service roles.

NEW YORK , Dec. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of common stock of Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG) between February 8, 2024 and October 29, 2024 , both dates inclusive (the "Class Period") and those who purchased Chipotle call options or sold put options during the Class Period, of the important January 10, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action first filed by the Firm. So what: If you purchased Chipotle securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. What to do next: To join the Chipotle class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=30587 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 10, 2025 . A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Chipotle's portion sizes were inconsistent and left many customers dissatisfied with the Company's offerings; (2) in order to address the issue and retain customer loyalty, Chipotle would have to ensure more generous portion sizes, which would increase cost of sales; and (3) as a result, defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats reelected Chuck Schumer as party leader on Tuesday as the party moves into a deeply uncertain time, with no real consensus on a strategy as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office. From left, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer of N.Y., Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., gather after Senate Democratic leadership elections for the next session of Congress on Tuesday in Washington. Schumer faced no opposition in the party leadership elections, in which Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin was also reelected to the No. 2 spot and Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar became the new No. 3. In a statement, Schumer, of New York, said he was honored to move the party forward “during this crucial period for our country.” “Our preference is to secure bipartisan solutions wherever possible and look for ways to collaborate with our Republican colleagues to help working families,” Schumer said. “However, our Republican colleagues should make no mistake about it, we will always stand up for our values.” While Schumer remains popular with his colleagues, it is a bleak moment for Senate Democrats, who were hopeful that they could hold the majority for the third election in a row. Instead they lost four seats and will be in the minority, 53-47, as Trump takes office and pressures the Senate to quickly confirm his Cabinet nominees. Unlike eight years ago, when opposition to Trump’s narrow election win fueled enthusiasm in their party, Democratic lawmakers and many of their voters are exhausted and looking for answers. So far, Democrats have stayed relatively quiet on Trump’s nominees and plans for office – a stark contrast from the loud opposition to Trump when he was elected eight years ago. Schumer has declined to comment on specifics of any nominees, instead allowing Republican reaction to dominate the conversation. On Monday, Schumer wrote a public letter to South Dakota Sen. John Thune, the incoming Republican majority leader, asking him to resist Trump’s pressure to allow him to appoint some of his nominees without a Senate vote and to insist on full FBI background checks for all nominees. But he has said little else about Trump’s upcoming presidency. While some have been more aggressive — Washington Sen. Patty Murray, a former chairwoman of the Senate Health, Labor, Education and Pensions Committee, said that Trump’s nomination of Robert Kennedy Jr. to lead the Health and Human Services Department is “dangerous” and “nothing short of disaster” — several Democratic senators say they are saving their strength and figuring out a focus. “Everybody’s in kind of a wait-and-see mode right now,” said Nevada Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, who is part of Schumer’s leadership team. “Under the previous Trump administration, there was chaos all the time, all the time. And I do think it is important to pick your battles.” It’s still unclear which battles they will pick. And Democrats have differing opinions on how to fight them. Hawaii Sen. Brian Schatz, who is also in Democratic leadership, says that “anyone who has a grand strategy is full of crap,” but thinks that Democrats, for now, “need to keep things simple.” “We need to talk about people, protect people, advocate for people,” Schatz said. “Do not talk about protecting institutions. Do not talk about advocating for institutions. It’s a not just a rhetorical shift, but an attitudinal shift. We have to remind ourselves, that we’re not fighting for programs and projects and line items and agencies or norms. We’re fighting for people.” Virginia Sen. Mark Warner said that he’s spent a lot of time reflecting, and “I don’t think anyone can claim this was a policy election,” and Democrats need to look at cultural issues. Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman says Democrats just need to “pace ourselves” and avoid the “massive freakout” of Trump’s last term. Democrats should be preparing, says Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal. He says Schumer is picking his battles “very thoughtfully and strategically.” “We’re thinking about how we protect against using the FBI, or the prosecutorial authority of the Justice Department for retribution against critics,” said Blumenthal. “How we elevate these issues in a way that American people understand them.” Democrats know better now, after eight years, “the extraordinary challenges we’re going to face,” Blumenthal said.

DEERFIELD — On Dec. 1, 1949, WKTV made history as it aired its first broadcast, becoming the 93rd television station in the United States to go on the air. Perched at the top of Smith Hill Road in Deerfield, the station has been a steadfast presence in the Mohawk Valley, bringing news, weather, and entertainment to local viewers for 75 years. WKTV originally was affiliated with all four networks in operation at the time: NBC, ABC, CBS, and DuMont. Its affiliations changed over time, as DuMont ceased operations, ABC became affiliated with the competing local station WUTR, and CBS went to a Syracuse station before joining WKTV again. For 75 years, WKTV has kept its NBC affiliation, becoming one of the oldest stations in the NBC family. While WKTV is best known today for its local news coverage, the station aired a variety of entertainment shows in its early years. Longtime WKTV viewers have fond memories of productions like cooking shows with Jean Phair, “High School Quiz” with Lyle Bosley, and the daily after-school show with Bozo the Clown. Local entertainment productions ended by the 1970s, as the station shifted its focus to local news. Alongside local print media, WKTV joined the ranks to become a staple of local journalism, as the station covered some of the biggest local news stories that affected the community over the past 75 years. Steve McMurray, vice president and general manager of WKTV, noted that the station allowed the community to see the changes as they were happening, and that it’s the “biggest role the station has played and will continue to play as it goes forward.” “We always treat this as the community’s TV station. There’s a level of responsibility that goes with that, to give folks what they need and give them what they deserve. That’s a very humbling and daunting job, but it’s an incredibly rewarding one, as well,” McMurray said. “News isn’t always positive, but we certainly have the community’s best interests at heart.” From Jerry Fiore, to Bill Worden, as well as Jason Powles and Kristen Copeland, the station’s 75 years saw numerous reporters and anchors who became the face of local news across the Mohawk Valley. Outside of the region, WKTV is known for kickstarting the television career of Dick Clark, as the station was his first television job. Then known as Dick Clay, he left WKTV in 1952 for a job in Philadelphia and later became the host of “American Bandstand,” putting Clark in the national spotlight and earning the nickname “world’s oldest teenager.” In an era of emerging and advancing technology, the station has adapted to meet the needs of multiple generations who consume content through different mediums. While most of WKTV’s history involves broadcasting the news to people’s televisions, the station’s newscasts and coverage are also consumed online through livestreaming and social media. “You don’t survive and flourish 75 years by doing the same thing all the time. We have to position ourselves for the future and be able to pivot at a moment’s notice,” McMurray said. “I think for us, the content is always going to be king. The traditional legacy television numbers are still strong, but we have a lot more folks that are now getting us via social media and our digital media options. Now we’re in the streaming world. Our mantra going forward is going to have to be give our viewers and our consumers the product that they want on the platforms that they desire to get it on.” The station’s newscast schedule airs weekdays from 5 to 7 a.m., noon to 1 p.m., 5 to 6 p.m., 6 to 6:30 p.m., 10 to 10:30 p.m., and 11 to 11:35 p.m. The newscast schedule airs on weekends from 9 to 10 a.m., 6 to 6:30 p.m., and 11 to 11:30 p.m.It did not require much in ’s to run into trouble with the secret police – and it always ended badly. Mohammed Ismail al-Daher’s only crime was having the same name as a suspect wanted by the Palestine Branch, one of the most feared intelligence units in Assad’s entire security apparatus. It did not seem to matter what he did, what records he kept to prove he was not that Ismail al-Daher, whoever he was, that he was merely a humble mechanic from Raqqa. Eventually, he knew he would be stopped, either at a checkpoint or by a passing patrol, bundled into a vehicle at gunpoint and taken into custody. Then the torture would begin, first the beatings and later the cigarette burns that still cover much of his body. It happened four times in as many years, most recently in May, and it normally took months for him to convince his tormentors that they had the wrong man. It certainly did not help that Raqqa, in eastern Syria, was for three years the city that Islamic State, or Isis, chose to make the capital of its self-declared caliphate. But, as Mr Daher points out, he fled to Damascus in order to get away from Isis – only to find out that life in government-held Syria was just as terrifying. Those days are in the past – forever, Mr Daher hopes. On Wednesday evening, he and his friends were celebrating the end of the Assad years at the storied Kamal al-Safi coffee house, a century-old establishment in the Mezzeh district of the Syrian capital. He often came here to while away the hours, perhaps over a game of cards or backgammon, and smoke a water pipe. Never in the past, however, would conversation have turned to politics, certainly not if it contained even the merest whiff of criticism towards the regime. “If you were foolish to have that kind of conversation, that would be a surefire way of ensuring that no one ever saw you again,” he said with a rueful laugh. “The only time you could criticise Assad was in your dreams when you were asleep.” Things could not be more different now. Damascus has the feel of a liberated city. Even three days after Assad’s overthrow, residents of the city were hooting their horns, waving the revolution flag and rejoicing in the streets. Over the 24 years he ruled the country, Assad made it very clear that Syria was very much his family’s fiefdom. His likeness or that of his , adorned posters, billboards and statues the breadth of the country, a reminder that his power was absolute. How little time it has taken, as is so often the case when a strongman is overthrown, for that power to prove ephemeral. The posters are gone, the statues toppled, the billboards ripped and blowing in the wind as though mocking the . His army, too, has dissolved. The checkpoints where soldiers would supplement their £8-a-month salary by shaking down passing motorists lie abandoned. Here and there, though in far fewer numbers, the fighters of the new regime, footsoldiers of the Islamist (HTS) faction, stood guard. Dressed in casual fatigues and clutching kalashnikovs, they waved motorists past with cheerful grins on Wednesday, a conscious effort to show how different to the old guard they are and perhaps, also, that they represented the smiling face of political Islam How long that remains the case remains to be seen. HTS is a former al-Qaeda affiliate. Its leader, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, had ties not just to al-Qaeda but to Isis as well and has a $10 million bounty on his head in the United States. Since 2017, however, both Mr Jolani and his movement have sought to present themselves as moderate reformers, still Islamic in outlook, but tolerant and inclusive of others. When the euphoria that always follows the overthrow of a dictator passes, HTS’s true self – moderate or otherwise – will become clearer. But for the moment, many Syrians are simply revelling in the unfamiliar joy of freedom after half a century of stultifying Assad rule. “We feel like people who, having been trapped underground, suddenly come to the surface and are able to breathe fresh air,” said Ahmad al Matar, a bookseller. For the moment at least, “après Assad, le dèluge” predictions of immediate disaster are yet to come to pass. HTS has maintained discipline in its ranks and order on the streets, roadsweepers are back at work and, despite the suffering Assad’s opponents suffered over the 13-year uprising, there is little evidence of retribution, misleading claims on social media notwithstanding. Fighters are keen to point out that their main aim is not to force an unwanted ideology on others but to restore hope after decades of darkness. “I joined HTS four years ago primarily because since leaving school I have been unable to get a job,” said Mahmoud Hilal, a bearded 32-year-old fighter standing on a highway scattered with military uniforms discarded by Assad’s fleeing army. “My ambition is to be an electrical engineer and I came to the conclusion that until Assad was gone I would have no chance of realising it.” Amid the euphoria and optimism, however, there is also a great deal of grief and trauma. All day on Wednesday, families trudged up the hill to , 16 miles north of Damascus, desperate to find out what happened to loved ones who vanished over the civil war, never to be seen again. Sednayah was Syria’s most notorious place of incarceration until its inmates, some of them too weak to walk, were sprung from their cells over the weekend. Torture was carried out on an industrial scale here, according to rights groups. So many were executed it was known to Syrians simply as “the slaughterhouse”. Thousands of people have visited in recent days, trawling through its dank corridors strewn with the paper records of inmates, shrinking away from the nooses hanging from ceilings in some cells and lighting their way through the darkness with their mobile phones. It soon became clear that there was virtually no hope of finding answers. Mirvat Alsahli was there to look for her son Tareq, who disappeared in the middle of his university exams in 2015 when he was 20. Eventually she tracked him down to Sednaya in 2018 and was allowed to visit him twice, although she was never permitted to ask why he had been arrested. “There were always two guards standing right behind him when I visited,” she said. “Then I went back a third time, and a soldier said, ‘He is dead’. He gave me no other information. I hope it is not true but I just want to find out what happened.” But her search was in vain and she left, weeping, supported by her equally distraught daughter. Sitting on the grass outside the prison, Mazhuda Hiban told of a similarly futile search for her husband and three sons who were dragged away from their home in Homs in 2011 as she watched with her youngest son, Khaled, who was then four. What they had done or where they were taken, she never found out. For the past seven years she and Khaled, now 17 and holding few memories of either his father or his brothers, have visited every prison in the country hoping for clues. Her return to Sednaya was a last desperate attempt to solve the mystery. “It feels hopeless,” she said. “My only hope is that Assad and his family go through just a little bit of what my family has gone through over the past 13 years.”

It inhibits coagulation by activating antithrombin III, preventing the activation of factor Xa and subsequent conversion of prothrombin to thrombin, and the formation of fibrin from fibrinogen. LMWH has several advantages over unfractionated heparin, including improved bioavailability, prolonged antithrombotic activity, and reduced need for regular blood monitoring. The British National Formulary and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence have approved LMWH for various clinical indications, including deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis in medium- and high-risk groups, treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in nonpregnant women, treatment of venous thromboembolism in pregnancy, treatment of ST-elevation myocardial infarction in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, and prevention of clotting in extracorporeal circuits. Unfractionated heparin and LMWH are self-administered subcutaneously. Several LMWH options are available in the market, including Fragmin (dalteparin), Lovenox (enoxaparin), parnaparin, certoparin, nadroparin, reviparin, and bemiparin. Each product has unique advantages, such as improved bioavailability, longer half-life, and lower incidence of adverse effects. For instance, dalteparin has a mean molecular weight of approximately 5,000 Da, improved bioavailability, and a lower incidence of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis. Lovenox (enoxaparin) is associated with a low incidence of adverse effects and a reduced need for laboratory monitoring. Parnaparin has greater efficacy, greater bioavailability, and a longer half-life, permitting once-daily administration. Certoparin has been proven effective and safe in preventing venous thromboembolism in different medical and surgical settings. Nadroparin has a greater ratio of anti-factor Xa to anti-factor Ha activity, greater bioavailability, and a longer duration of action. Reviparin has a narrow molecular weight distribution profile and is effective in preventing deep vein thrombosis at different daily doses. Bemiparin has the lowest mean molecular weight, the longest half-life, and the largest anti-factor Xa activity, making it effective in preventing venous thromboembolism in moderate- and high-risk surgical patients and during hemodialysis. The wide availability of LMWH products and their advantages and efficacy increase the adoption of LMWH, contributing to the growth of the LMWH segment in the global heparin market during the forecast period.

As Hegseth’s public profile grew, he faced deepening private turmoilReichman Jorgensen Lehman & Feldberg LLP (PRNewsfoto/Reichman Jorgensen Lehman & Feldberg LLP) REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. , Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Reichman Jorgensen Lehman & Feldberg LLP (RJLF) has filed a lawsuit on behalf of a coalition of manufacturers, businesses, affordable housing interests, and workers seeking to prevent enforcement of South Coast Air Quality Management District regulations that effectively ban certain gas appliances. The plaintiffs, representing thousands of California residents, businesses, and workers, include Rinnai America Corporation , Noritz America Corporation , National Association of Homebuilders , California Manufacturers & Technology Association , California Restaurant Association , California Hotel & Lodging Association , and California Apartment Association , all represented by RJLF and Sean Kneafsey of the Kneafsey Law Firm . Californians for Homeownership is represented by Matt Gelfand , Restaurant Law Center is represented by Angelo Amador , and the California State Pipe Trades Council by McCracken, Stemerman & Holsberry . The coalition's suit asserts that the District's zero-NOx emissions rule for certain appliances, which effectively bans those gas appliances, is preempted by the federal Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) and should be blocked. The District's rule not only effectively mandates the use of electric appliances in new buildings but also forces costly retrofits to electric in existing buildings when appliances are replaced. This rule threatens the reliability and affordability of energy for millions of Californians, will impose enormous costs and disruption on businesses and workers, and will reduce the availability of affordable housing. Earlier this year, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held that Berkeley, California's ban on gas piping in new buildings was preempted by EPCA ( California Restaurant Association v. City of Berkeley , 89 F.4th 1094 (9th Cir. 2024)) . The District's rule is legally indistinguishable, and the same result applies. "This case is pivotal to reinforcing the federal and state roles in setting national energy policy," said Sarah Jorgensen , lead counsel for the plaintiffs at RJLF. "The District's mandate for electric appliances in both new construction and forced retrofits not only jeopardizes our clients' work, business, and interests but also disregards established federal law. California must comply with the law." The case is Rinnai America Corp. et al. v. South Coast Air Quality Management District , No. 2:24-cv-10482 , in the United States District Court for the Central District of California .
