  • MIL-OSI: NEWTON GOLF Introduces New Gravity Putter Line, Building on Momentum from Recent Rebranding

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Gravity, the putter division of parent company NEWTON GOLF, introduces five putters in its new premium series

    CAMARILLO, CA, Sept. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NEWTON GOLF, (Nasdaq: SPGC) (“NEWTON GOLF” or the “Company”), a technology-forward golf company with a growing portfolio of golf products, including putters, golf shafts, golf grips, and other golf-related accessories, builds on its recent rebranding with the launch of three new putter models and two redesigned classics in its newly formed Gravity Premium Series (“Gravity”) of putters.

    Formerly known as Sacks Parente Golf putters, the putter line has been redesigned and rebranded as Gravity under the NEWTON GOLF umbrella, ushering in a new era with a fresh, modern aesthetic. Featuring striking red and black colors and a premium ceramic coating finish previously reserved for Tour-level putters, these models embody NEWTON GOLF’s core design principles, including the brand’s signature patented Ultra’Low Balance Point (ULBP) and Center of Gravity (CG) technology.

    The new lineup includes three new models: The Classic, the DEUCE, and the DUKE. Additionally, the DRAC and the PRISM are two models from the previous Sacks Parente brand that have been redesigned and have the new Gravity logo and colorways. The Company is also introducing a new putter shaft, Newton Tempo, which is an improved design to provide better feel and balance with the newly designed heads.

    At the core of NEWTON GOLF’s Gravity putter design is the belief that gravity truly matters.

    Technology and Innovation: Gravity and Tempo

    All of the Gravity Premium Series putters are equipped with advanced features, such as Ultra Low Balance Point and optimized Center of Gravity. This ensures that golfers experience improved tempo by placing the weight of the putter predominantly in the head, with very light grips and carbon fiber shafts.The center of gravity is designed to be as low and close to the ball as possible. This promotes a smooth, repeatable tempo, minimizes side spin, and ensures the ball stays on the intended line for a truer, consisent roll.

    PGA Tour Champions player Ken Duke has already adopted a Gravity putter in his bag, saying, “The putters are beautiful and have amazing feel and sound. I fell in love with them instantly. Finally, the consumers will get to experience a true Tour-only quality product without paying thousands of dollars.”

    Forgiveness and Sweet Spot

    Each Gravity Premium Series putter is engineered for maximum Moment of Inertia (MOI). This increases the stability of the face, effectively widening the sweet spot to ensure off-center strikes are met with forgiveness and consistency.

    The Gravity Premium Series Putters:

    • The Classic – The Classic, Gravity’s new traditional anser-style putter in the Premium Series, is optimized for modern stroke types with a shallower arc. It features a newly designed hosel for enhanced performance and feel. The Classic is made with 1018 carbon steel material for the best ball feel with Tour Only quality ceramic coating finish. MSRP: $450
    • The DEUCE – The new DEUCE is a double-wide anser putter that is easy to aim with a blade-like look. Available in 1018 carbon steel body, the DEUCE is designed to fit all stroke types with two hosel locations. MSRP: $450
    • The DUKE – The new DUKE putter takes its inspiration from PGA TOUR Champions player Ken Duke. Made with a 1018 carbon steel body with tungsten weighting, the DUKE is a modern interpretation of a classic-style putter that has a shorter blade length with a half mallet back: MSRP: $450
    • The PRISM – Gravity’s redesigned PRISM mallet putter naturally improves the putting stroke and tightens the dispersion of putts. Engineered to deliver the right MOI and unmatched stability, the PRISM optimizes the stroke and provides the best roll in golf. It is made of 6061 aluminum and 50 grams of tungsten. The mallet head has been reshaped to improve stability and move CG more forward. MSRP: $450
    • The DRAC – The redesigned DRAC is the modernization of a fang-style putter. It is Gravity’s highest MOI putter that is made of 6061 aluminum and 100 grams of tungsten. It has been redesigned with the Gravity logo and colorways. MSRP: $450

    “We named the new putter division ‘Gravity’ because it perfectly encapsulates this fundamental design principle that enhances the natural tempo and precision of every putt,” said NEWTON GOLF’s Executive Chairman Greg Campbell. “When the golfer lifts the putter on the backstroke, potential energy is stored, and, by trusting gravity to accelerate the putter head during the stroke, golfers can achieve consistent velocity at impact – which is proportional to the length of the backstroke.”

    All Gravity putters are available for preorder on October 1, 2024 at https://newtongolfco.com.

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Condolences to family of victim affected by freezing weather conditions

    Source: South Africa News Agency

    The Minister in the Presidency for Women, Youth, and Persons with Disabilities Sindisiwe Chikunga has extended her heartfelt condolences to the family of the woman who lost her life in adverse weather conditions that hit parts of the Free State and KwaZulu-Natal provinces.

    “We are deeply saddened to learn that a woman lost her life to hypothermia due to these unprecedented weather conditions. She was a passenger in a taxi travelling from Johannesburg to KwaZulu-Natal,” the Minister said in a statement on Wednesday.

    The 39-year-old woman died on Saturday while trapped in the blizzard that engulfed the N3 between Van Reenen’s Pass, connecting KwaZulu-Natal and the Free State.

    This was confirmed by paramedic services, Midlands EMS [emergency medical services] Rescue Medics, in a statement.

    According to the medical service, the Midlands EMS Howick crews, along with Midlands EMS Rescue Medics, were dispatched to a shopping centre in Merrivale for a person who had collapsed after being exposed to severe cold overnight, while in a taxi stuck in traffic in the snow.

    Chikunga commended the exemplary selflessness and solidarity shown by South Africans who came to each other’s aid in what were life-threatening circumstances.

    She also added that South Africa is experiencing unusual climate change related incidents, marked by an increase in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, as well as rising mortality rates.

    The severity of these events continues to disproportionately affect marginalised communities—those who often lack the resources to cope—most of whom are women and persons with disabilities.

    “While this is a global phenomenon, the impact of climate change related disasters is not uniform. Recent research published by the World Bank shows that “across the globe, women and persons with disabilities experience mortality rates up to four times higher in natural disasters than those without.

    “We express our condolences to those who have lost their loved ones, and we urge all South Africans to closely monitor weather reports to avoid areas projected to experience extreme weather conditions,” the Minister said.

     In his address at the National Heritage Day celebrations on Tuesday, Acting President Paul Mashatile emphasised the need to recognise the growing impact of climate change on the nation’s well-being and cultural heritage. 

    Mashatile urged citizens to be mindful of how climate change threatens both livelihoods and cultural traditions.
    The Acting President expressed his honour in addressing the nation on Heritage Day but noted that celebrations were overshadowed by severe weather affecting parts of KwaZulu-Natal, the Eastern Cape, and the Free State.

    “It is a great honour and privilege to address you at this significant occasion as we celebrate our country’s Heritage Day. Unfortunately, as we were looking forward to this day, some parts of our country, which include Kwa-Zulu Natal, Eastern Cape and Free State, were impacted by severe weather conditions, exacerbated by climate change,” he said at the celebrations held in Ficksburg, Free State.

    Meanwhile, the South African Weather Service (SAWS) said the country is set to experience a mix of warm and cool temperatures in the coming days, with a significant drop in temperatures and even light snowfall expected later this month.

    This after the weekend’s freezing temperatures and snowfall in some parts of the country caused havoc on the roads, resulting in one fatality.

  • MIL-OSI USA: FACT SHEET: During Climate Week, Biden-⁠ Harris Administration Announces Continued Progress on the American Climate  Corps

    US Senate News:

    Source: The White House
    American Climate Corps Has Already Put 15,000 Young Americans to Work as Part of Its Inaugural Cohort
    Environmental Protection Agency and AmeriCorps Announce a New Environmental Justice Climate Corps; the Department of Housing and Urban Development Joins the Interagency American Climate Corps Initiative
    Since taking office, President Biden has delivered on the most ambitious climate, clean energy, conservation, and environmental justice agenda in history – signing into law the largest investment in climate action ever, protecting more than 42 million acres of public lands and waters, creating good-paying clean energy jobs, and establishing the Justice40 Initiative, which sets the goal that 40 percent of the overall benefits from certain federal investments flow to disadvantaged communities that are marginalized by underinvestment and overburdened by pollution.
    As part of his historic commitment to tackle the climate crisis, President Biden launched the American Climate Corps (ACC) to mobilize the next generation of clean energy, conservation, and climate resilience workers, with a goal to put 20,000 young people to work in the clean energy and climate resilience economy in the initiative’s first year. Today, in celebration of Climate Week, the White House is announcing that more than 15,000 young Americans have been put to work in high-quality, good-paying clean energy and climate resilience workforce training and service opportunities through the American Climate Corps – putting the program on track to reach President Biden’s goal of 20,000 members in the program’s first year ahead of schedule.
    Across the country, American Climate Corps members are working on projects to tackle the climate crisis, including restoring coastal ecosystems, strengthening urban and rural agriculture, investing in clean energy and energy efficiency, improving disaster and wildfire preparedness, and more. The American Climate Corps is giving a diverse new generation of young people the tools to fight the impacts of climate change today and the skills to join the clean energy and climate-resilience workforce of tomorrow.
    Today, the Biden-Harris Administration is making several additional announcements:
    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and AmeriCorps are Announcing a New Environmental Justice Climate Corps, which will put more than 250 American Climate Corps members to work over the next three years providing technical assistance to community-based organizations in environmental justice communities – helping them access resources to carry out locally driven projects that reduce pollution, increase community climate resilience, improve public health and safety, and build community capacity to address environmental and climate justice challenges. Environmental Justice Climate Corps members will be paid a living allowance and reimbursed for selected living expenses. In total, this allowance is equivalent to receiving more than $25 per hour throughout their year of service. They will also obtain the benefits of AmeriCorps VISTA service—including the Segal AmeriCorps Education Award, which is valued at $7,395 in FY24, and streamlined pathways into certain federal jobs—and gain mentorship and professional development opportunities. Applications for the Environmental Justice Climate Corps will open in early 2025, with a goal for its first cohort to start later that year.The partnership with EPA is AmeriCorps’ largest environmental partnership in the agency’s history and will build on the success of three other partnerships announced under the American Climate Corps: AmeriCorps NCCC Forest Corps, Working Lands Climate Corps and Energy Communities AmeriCorps, which together will support more than 500 new ACC positions over the coming years.
    The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is Joining the ACC Interagency Initiative. Joining the seven initial signatories of the December 2023 ACC Memorandum of Understanding, today HUD will become the eighth federal agency member of the ACC Interagency Initiative. This step brings the ACC to the communities HUD serves, building upon the Department’s commitment to using low- and zero-carbon energy and supporting communities to increase their resilience, advance environmental justice, and create good jobs for residents.
    The American Climate Corps is Fostering Federal-State Partnerships by establishing a partnership with state service commissions, which support national service in states across the country, to grow the number of state climate corps and strengthen existing state climate corps programs. Together, the American Climate Corps, state-level climate corps programs, and state national service leadership are committed to strengthening state climate corps, supporting impactful program implementation, and leveraging state and local partnerships to scale climate corps efforts across the country. To date, 14 states have launched their own state-based climate corps programs, including New Jersey who just today announced the creation of the New Jersey Climate Corps. 
    American Climate Corps Will Host a Virtual Job Fair. The American Climate Corps is working to ensure that its members have a pathway to good-paying jobs following their terms of service, which is why later this year, ACC will host a virtual job fair for current and past members to learn about high-quality career opportunities in the clean energy and climate resilience economy. The virtual job fair will bring together the private sector, labor unions, and the public sector, including Federal agencies, to showcase career pathways available to ACC members.
    Today’s announcements build on a year of successful program implementation, including:
    Launch of the American Climate Corps Tour. This fall, to showcase ACC members’ important work across the nation, the American Climate Corps and senior Biden-Harris Administration officials is embarking on a national tour and visiting ten locations to highlight ACC members’ impact in communities across the country.The tour is making stops at a range of ACC project sites and featuring remarks by representatives of the Biden-Harris Administration and other Federal, state, and local elected officials. Visits include ACC member swearing-in ceremonies, service projects, and roundtables with ACC members.
    Creation of the American Climate Corps Storytellers Project. Inspired by the Works Progress Administration’s Federal Art Project, the ACC launched the Storytellers Project, engaging artists and storytellers to capture the impact of President Biden’s American Climate Corps.The ACC Storytellers Project solicited applications from artists across the country. Ten accomplished storytellers were selected to document the impact of the American Climate Corps in communities across the country through photographs, videos, and other visual art mediums.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: With the support of Rosneft, the Oceans Day festival was held in Sakhalin

    MIL OSI Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

    Source: Rosneft – Rosneft – An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

    The seventh environmental festival “Oceans Day” was held in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk with the support of the Sakhalin-1 project. This environmental education event is timed to coincide with World Maritime Day and is traditionally celebrated at the end of September. Festival visitors were told what everyone can do to protect the fragile marine ecosystem.

    The world ocean is one of the largest ecosystems on the planet, a source of oxygen and an absorber of carbon dioxide. 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. More than 2 million species of various organisms live in rivers, lakes, seas and oceans: invertebrates, fish, mammals, birds and many others.

    Festival guests took part in various educational stations, where they learned the “ABCs of Marine Mammals”, were able to draw their own whale, learn about the impact of human activity on the animal habitat and how to protect the sea from waste. Particularly popular were the stations “Inhabitants of the Deep Sea” and “Getting to Know the Seals”, “Pacific Eagle”, where you could learn about rare species of fish, mammals and birds of the Pacific coast of Russia.

    Environmental care is an integral part of Rosneft’s corporate culture and social responsibility. The Company’s activities are based on the principle of preserving a favorable environment and biological diversity in the regions of its presence. A number of initiatives are aimed at studying and restoring rare species of animals, including conducting environmental education events and developing a responsible attitude to the use of natural resources.

    The Okhotsk Sea gray whale population monitoring program has been implemented in the northeast of Sakhalin Island for 27 years. Scientists note that the population is growing and today there are already more than 350 individuals. Every year, the number of mammals is counted, their behavior is observed, and the food supply is studied, photo-identification studies and acoustic monitoring are carried out. The studies are carried out jointly with the leading scientific organizations of the country.

    In 2024, the Company developed a new research program, which received positive reviews from experts at the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources. Scientists, together with the Company’s relevant specialists, will monitor gray whales throughout the navigation period until the Sea of Okhotsk is covered with ice and the whales head to their wintering grounds.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Moscow Unveils New Tram Line on Sergey Radonezhsky Street

    Source: Moscow Transport

    The opening of a new tram line on Sergey Radonezhsky Street took place yesterday in the capital, which was a significant step forward in the development of the city’s public transport network. A new route – tram No. 2 – appeared on the line, connecting six districts of Moscow and becoming a convenient alternative for residents of the south-eastern, eastern and central districts of the city.

    Important benefits of opening a new tram line:

    • Faster, More Efficient Travel for Hundreds of Thousands:

    The newly launched Tram No. 2 route spans from 3rd Vladimirskaya Street to Kursky Train Station, offering a smooth and efficient journey in just 30 minutes. Previously, the same trip required approximately 40 minutes with two transfers. The new line is expected to benefit nearly 700,000 residents, providing them with convenient and direct access to key transportation hubs and social amenities.

    • Enhanced Connectivity and Accessibility:

    The tram line seamlessly integrates with the city’s existing transportation infrastructure, providing convenient transfers to 15 different stations, including Kursky Train Station, Moscow Central Diameter lines 2 and 4 (MCD-2, MCD-4), and metro stations Ploshchad Iliicha, Rimskaya, and others. Future plans include integrating the line with the Serp i Molot Moscow City Railway Station.

    • Modern Tram for a Modern City:

    The line is served by seven state-of-the-art Vityaz-Moskva trams, equipped with modern features including a low floor for easy accessibility, climate control, and charging stations. These trams operate on a 10-minute interval, ensuring frequent and efficient service.

    • Improved Urban Design:

    The introduction of the new tram line has also revitalized Sergey Radonezhsky Street. The even-numbered side now features a dedicated pedestrian walkway, providing a comfortable route for residents from their homes to the metro station and public transport stops. The roadway and sidewalks have been modernized, and the street is adorned with new lighting, navigation signs, and elevated tram stops.

    • Quiet and Efficient Travel:

    The construction of the new tram line incorporates innovative technology, featuring seamless track laying, rubber seals, and specialized vibration-damping mats. These design elements ensure quiet and smooth operation, enhancing the passenger experience. The 3.9-kilometer track is also separated from the roadway, further promoting safety and efficiency.

    Beirut (Agenzia Fides) – Faced with the “national disaster” affecting Lebanon, Maronite Patriarch Boutros Bechara Rai appeals to the UN Security Council to “intervene effectively” to force the parties in conflict to “stop the war and begin negotiations”. The appeal, broadcast through the official communication networks of the Maronite Patriarchate, calls for unity of “the entire Lebanese family” and expresses gratitude for all those who open their homes and schools to the displaced and work in hospitals to help the wounded. The Lebanese cardinal also calls on the Lebanese Parliament to urgently elect a new President of the Republic and put an end to the political-institutional crisis that has lasted for years. And let us pray to God “concludes the Patriarch in his brief appeal” so that He may inspire everyone on the path to achieving a just and inclusive peace”. (GV) (Agenzia Fides 25/9/2024) Share:

  • MIL-OSI Africa: KZN reports second-highest HIV prevalence rate in SA

    Source: South Africa News Agency

    KwaZulu-Natal has recorded the second-highest HIV prevalence rate at 16% in 2022, down from 18% in 2017. 

    According to the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC), this translates to 1 980 000 people living with HIV (PLHIV) in KwaZulu-Natal, which was a decline from 1 990 000 in 2017.

    The information is based on the findings of the Sixth South African HIV Prevalence, Incidence and Behaviour Survey (SABSSM VI).

    SAnews reported last week that Mpumalanga now has the highest HIV prevalence at 17.4% in 2022, which translates to an estimated 890 000 (PLHIV) in the province.

    READ | Mpumalanga records highest HIV prevalence rate 

    According to the overall principal investigator of the study, the HSRC’s Professor Khangelani Zuma, the survey showed that in 2022, HIV prevalence in the province was higher among those aged 25 to 49 (31.1%), for both females (38.4%) and males (21.5%). 

    HIV prevalence was also higher among those residing in rural formal or farm areas (20%).

    “HIV prevalence peaked at 44.5% among those aged 45 to 49 in 2022 from 39.7% in 2017 among those aged 35 to 39, indicating a possibility of continuing infections among older people. HIV prevalence had decreased by 2022 among all age groups younger than 40 years compared to 2017,” Zuma said.

    By district, in 2022, HIV prevalence was highest in uMgungundlovu (19.5%). 

    The data presented are for eight priority districts within KwaZulu-Natal namely, eThekwini, Harry Gwala, King Cetshwayo, Ugu, uMgungundlovu, uThukela, Zululand and uMkhanyakude districts, as per the study protocol. 

    Antiretroviral treatment 

    Antiretroviral treatment (ART) coverage in KwaZulu-Natal increased to 87.3% in 2022, from 71.2% in 2017. 

    The ART coverage estimate translates to an estimated 1 609 000 PLHIV in the province receiving treatment in 2022.

    In 2022, ART use among all PLHIV in the province was lowest among adolescents and youth aged 15 to 24 (62.8%) compared to other age groups. 

    ART use was also lower among both males (58.8%) and females (64%) in this age group compared to other age groups.

    Among children aged zero to 14, ART use among males was 83.5% compared to females (65.9%). Among rural formal areas, ART use among males (93.3%) was comparable to females (93.6%).

    The SABSSM VI survey, conducted between 2022 and 2023, aimed to maintain surveillance of HIV infection and behaviours in South Africa, evaluate the progress of the South African national HIV and AIDS, STI and TB Strategic Plan, and monitor HIV indicators for national and international reporting.

    Viral load suppression 

    On the viral load suppression, the survey further revealed that, in 2022, among all provinces, KwaZulu-Natal had the highest proportion of all PLHIV with VLS (86.8%), having increased from 2017 (67.8%). 

    Knowledge of HIV status

    The professor expressed concern that those aged between 25 and 49 accounted for the majority of PLHIV in the province (68.3%) who were unaware of their HIV status (54.5%), aware but not on ART (63.5%), and on ART but not virally suppressed (66.4%). 

    “However, adolescents and youth aged 15 to 24 contribute disproportionally to gaps in treatment, accounting for just 8.5% of all PLHIV, but 28.4% of those unaware of their HIV status, 19.1% of those aware but not on ART and 15.7% of those on ART but not virally suppressed.” 

    Sex debut

    Regarding the key drivers of the HIV pandemic, Zuma noted that, in KwaZulu-Natal, there was no change in the proportion of adolescents and youth aged 15 to 24 who reported having sex before the age of 15 in 2017 (8.2%) compared to 2022 (8.6%).

    However, sexual debut before the age of 15 among adolescents and youth between 15 and 24 years in 2022 was higher among males (12.3%) than females (4.8%). 

    The survey revealed that 11% of people aged 15 and older reported having multiple sexual partners in 2022 compared to 9.4% in 2017. 

    The proportion of people aged 15 and older who reported having multiple sexual partners was five-fold higher among males (18.6%), compared to females (3.5%), and 1.5-fold higher among those aged 15 to 24 (16.3%) compared to those aged 25 to 49 (10.9%). 

    The proportion of people who reported having multiple sexual partners was highest in Harry Gwala (14.1%) and lowest in uThukela (7.6%).

    Condom use

    Regarding condom use, the survey revealed that 32.8% reported using a condom with the most recent sexual partner in 2022 compared to 44.9% in 2017, representing a 12.1% decline.

    In KwaZulu-Natal, a higher proportion also reported that they never (45.2%) used a condom with their most recent sexual partner. 

    “Only 9.3% reported that they used condoms almost every time.”

    Meanwhile, consistency of condom uses with the most recent sexual partner among people aged 15 and older in the province was higher among adolescents and youth aged 15 to 24 (26.7%) compared to those aged 25 to 49 (16.5%). 

    “However, nearly 60% of youth reported only using a condom sometimes or never.”

    Zuma recommended a long-term strategy to care for people in an ageing HIV epidemic as well as tailored interventions to address gaps in the “clinical cascade”.

    “We also recommend a continued focus on increasing coverage and demand for medical male circumcision among males aged 15 and older. We must also enhance public awareness and uptake of effective HIV prevention measures, such as regular HIV testing, condoms and PrEP [pre-exposure prophylaxis],” Zuma added. – SAnews.gov.za

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Nersa publishes Eskom’s revenue application for the next three financial years

    Source: South Africa News Agency

    The National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) on Monday published Eskom’s multi-year price determination (MYPD) revenue application up until 2028. 

    According to Eskom, the application covers the power utility’s financial period beginning on 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2028. 

    Eskom explained that it follows the MYPD methodology as prescribed by the regulatory authority.

    “This methodology is now in its sixth application; hence the process is referred to as MYPD 6,” the statement read. 

    Nersa will decide on the revenue Eskom can receive following its analysis and the regulator conducting a series of public consultations. 

    Eskom believes that this application allows for an improvement in the financial sustainability of Eskom through the migration to cost-reflective prices and the successful operation of Generation, Transmission and Distribution in Eskom. 

    “Further migration towards cost reflectivity to cover the full cost of capital would be considered in subsequent applications. This would minimise the impact on the taxpayers.”

    In accordance with its revenue decision, Eskom said Nersa will then make tariff decisions for implementation from 1 April 2025. 

    As per Eskom, it can only implement tariff decisions made by Nersa.

    “We are entering the next phase of the regulatory process where Nersa will conduct an extensive public consultation about Eskom’s revenue application and we urge as many stakeholders as possible to become involved so Nersa can determine a key component in the funding of a constant electricity supply that drives economic growth and our quality of life for years to come,” said Chief Financial Officer of Eskom, Calib Cassim. 

    Cassim stated that as Nersa makes its decision, it will consider affordability for identified vulnerable sectors including indigent customers and certain industrial sectors. 

    “Eskom has made its revenue application based on the costs it will incur to efficiently provide electricity to the customer and it is a critical component in ensuring Eskom continues to provide reliable electricity services while improving its financial sustainability, through a migration to cost-reflective prices,” he added. 

    The utility said it was applying for total revenues of R446 billion for the 2026 financial year, R495 billion for 2027 and R537 billion for 2028.

    This translates to the proposed average price increases for Eskom direct customers are 36.15% (1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026), 11.81% (1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027) and 9.10% (1 April 2027 to 31 March 2028).

    In addition to the MYPD 6 application, Eskom submitted a retail tariff plan (RTP) to Nersa outlining proposed structural changes, which are expected to be implemented from 1 April 2025 once all Nersa approval and governance processes are concluded.

    “The RTP aims to introduce cost-representative pricing that supports the long-term sustainability of all participants in the electricity supply industry.” 

    Nersa will consult with stakeholders on Eskom’s revenue application, as part of its decision-making process. 

    Eskom is required to submit to the regulator the revenue it requires for Nersa to make its determination. – SAnews.gov.za

    Source: China State Council Information Office 2

    A Chinese research ship was approached and harassed by a military speed-gunboat and a coastguard vessel of the Philippines while conducting scientific research in the South China Sea on Tuesday.
    According to personnel aboard the Chinese ship, a speed-gunboat from the Philippine side approached and zigzagged around the Chinese ship Haiyang Dizhi 12, or Ocean Geology 12 in English, in the early morning, disrupting its normal research operations.
    Subsequently, vessel No. 4411 of the Philippine coastguard crossed in front of the Chinese research vessel and passed through with malicious intent, violating international rules on averting maritime collisions and gravely hampering the safety of the Chinese vessel and its operation.
    According to the captain of the Chinese research ship, this was the second time that the Philippine side had harassed China’s research vessels since the start of the scientific research mission.
    Previously, a Philippine vessel with the number 298 painted on its side deliberately covered the name on its bow, turned off its lighting and automatic identification system, and passed in front of the Chinese research vessel about 300 meters away at a high speed during nighttime, the captain said, noting that the Philippine vessel neither steered to make way nor answered radio communication from the Chinese vessel, posing a serious threat to the latter’s safety of navigation.
    The Chinese scientific research mission carried out by the ship is based on peaceful purposes and aimed at enriching humankind’s scientific knowledge of the ocean, said the chief scientist of this mission, adding that the methods and tools used in the mission are scientific and appropriate.
    The mission comply with the general principles outlined in article 240 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea regarding the conduct of marine scientific research, and are both legitimate and legal, the chief scientist said.
    Ding Duo, a researcher with the National Institute for South China Sea Studies, noted that China’s marine scientific exploration activities in relevant waters are based on China’s territorial sovereignty over the Nansha Qundao and its corresponding maritime rights. China’s relevant activities are exercising the rights of coastal countries granted by international laws, including the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, said Ding.
    China welcomes scientific research institutions of other countries in the South China Sea to conduct joint maritime scientific research activities with China, promote practical maritime cooperation in various fields, and create favorable conditions for peace and stability in the South China Sea, as well as regional development and prosperity, Ding added.

  • MIL-OSI China: Mainland slams Taiwan’s ‘economic coercion’ claim as nothing but calling white black

    Source: China State Council Information Office 2

    The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council has rejected Taiwan authorities’ accusation that the mainland is engaging in “economic coercion,” following the mainland’s announcement to cancel the zero-tariff policy on 34 agricultural products from Taiwan.
    Such claims are a complete distortion of the facts, said Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for the office, at a press conference on Wednesday.
    Zhu said that the mainland began introducing the zero-tariff policies in 2005 to expand the sales of Taiwan farm produce on the mainland.
    The measures applied to 15 types of fruits, 11 vegetables, and eight aquatic products, bringing tangible benefits to compatriots in Taiwan, Zhu added.
    She expressed regret that in recent years, Taiwan’s Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) authorities have continued to promote “Taiwan independence” provocations, escalate tensions and undermine cross-Strait cooperation.
    Zhu pointed out that the DPP authorities have imposed unilateral restrictions on over 1,000 mainland agricultural products, which she said harm the interests of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
    In view of this, the mainland decided to stop implementing the policies of exempting import tariffs on 34 agricultural products originating from Taiwan effective from Sept. 25, 2024, she said.
    In response to Taiwan authorities’ call for consultations under the World Trade Organization (WTO) frameworks, Zhu dismissed the suggestion as an attempt by the DPP authorities to “internationalize” the Taiwan question and reiterated that the foundation for cross-Strait consultations is the 1992 Consensus, not WTO frameworks and regulations.
    Zhu urged the DPP authorities to take practical steps to stop undermining cross-Strait relations and harming the welfare of compatriots on both sides of the Strait.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Defense News: Navy Awards Amphibious Multi-Ship Procurement Contracts

    Source: United States Navy

    WASHINGTON – The U.S. Navy awarded contracts totaling $9,472,132,620 for procurement of one America-class amphibious assault ship (LHA) and three San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock (LPD) ships, Sept. 24. The award, executed across two separate contracts to Huntington Ingalls Industries, Ingalls Shipbuilding Division, utilized a multi-ship procurement approach. By using this strategy, as authorized by Congress, the Navy is projected to achieve more than $901 million in cost avoidance as compared to the use of annual contracts.

    The long-term contract agreements align with Secretary of the Navy Del Toro’s maritime statecraft initiatives to make naval shipbuilding more cost effective while promoting shipyard stability and investment. The agreements provide stable shipyard workload well into the early 2030s, providing a consistent demand signal to vendors. 

    “The importance of this multiple amphibious ship purchase cannot be overstated with respect to our whole-of-government effort to restore the maritime capabilities of the United States,” said Del Toro. “This purchase sends a steady demand signal to our shipbuilding industrial base that our Navy is actively investing in our shipbuilding infrastructure.”

    The awards are consistent with the Commandant of the Marine Corps’ projected force structure requirements and demonstrates the Navy’s commitment to maintaining 31 amphibious ships. 

    “The Amphibious Ready Group / Marine Expeditionary Unit (ARG/MEU) is the premier force offering of our Corps,” said Lt. Gen. Eric Austin, Deputy Commandant for Combat Development and Integration. “This multi-ship procurement contract ensures the Marine Corps upholds the obligation to meet combatant commander requirements for continuous MEU presence. ARG/MEUs provide our national leadership with combat credible forces that are persistently forward, assure allies and partners, and contribute to deterrence, campaigning, crisis response, and combat operations.”

    The America-class of amphibious assault ships operate as the centerpiece of ARG/MEU operations and Marine Expeditionary Brigade with accommodations for ship’s company, troops, vehicles, and equipment. The San Antonio-class of amphibious transport dock ships are designed to embark, transport, and deploy ground troops and equipment.

    “This multi-ship procurement provides the long-term stability our shipbuilders and vendors require, enabling them to deliver product effectively, help support and retain a talented and critical workforce, and invest in the infrastructure required to sustain and grow our shipbuilding capability and capacity,” said Assistant Secretary of the Navy Acquisition, Research and Development, Nickolas Guertin.

    “This multi-ship procurement will deliver critical amphibious warfare capability to support the Navy and Marine Corps mission,” said Capt. Matthew Tardy, program manager, Amphibious Warfare Program, Program Executive Office (PEO) Ships. “The partnership between the Navy and Ingalls Shipbuilding is important. We are proud to be working with their talented workforce to build and deliver highly capable ships and provide needed stability for the shipbuilding industrial base.”

    ​​​​​​​Program Executive Office Ships (PEO Ships), one of the Defense Department’s largest acquisition organizations, manages the design and construction of destroyers, amphibious ships, special mission and support ships, as well as a wide range of boats and craft for U.S. agencies and foreign military sales. These platforms enable our nation and its allies to project presence in peace, power in wartime, and assured access at all times.

  • MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Green Party reaction to vote on winter fuel payments at Labour conference

    Source: Green Party of England and Wales

    2. Press Releases

    Reacting to a motion on winter fuel payments put forward by the Unite union and supported by a majority of delegates at Labour Party conference, co-leader of the Green Party, Carla Denyer, said:

    “Today’s vote at Labour Party conference leaves Labour ministers out in the cold. There is a groundswell of support – from opposition parties, unions, many Labour MPs, health workers, disability groups, charities supporting pensioners, as well as others – for ensuring millions of pensioners keep warm this winter.

    “Targeting some of the most vulnerable to fix the supposed black hole in the public finances is cruel and unnecessary.  

    “There is another way. A fairer way. As the successful motion by Unite makes clear, taxing multi-millionaires and billionaires a little more would not only easily cover the cost of winter fuel payments for all pensioners but also generate additional funds for much needed investment in our health and social care services.”

  • MIL-OSI Russia: A new tram line has opened in Moscow on Sergius of Radonezh Street

    MIL OSI Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

    Source: Moscow Transport

    Yesterday, the capital saw the opening of a new tram line on Sergius of Radonezh Street, which was a significant step forward in the development of the city’s public transport network. A new route appeared on the line – tram No. 2, which connected six districts of Moscow and became a convenient alternative for residents of the south-eastern, eastern and central districts of the city.

    Moscow Transport.

    Important advantages of opening the new tram line:

    Faster, more efficient travel for hundreds of thousands of people:

    The newly launched tram route #2 runs from 3rd Vladimirskaya Street to Kursky Station, providing a smooth and efficient journey in just 30 minutes. Previously, the same journey took around 40 minutes with two transfers. The new line is expected to benefit around 700,000 residents, providing them with convenient and direct access to key transport hubs and social infrastructure.

    Improved connectivity and accessibility:

    The tram line fits seamlessly into the city’s existing transport infrastructure, providing convenient transfers to 15 different stations, including Kursky Station, lines 2 and 4 of the Moscow Central Diameter (MCD-2, MCD-4), the metro stations “Ploshchad Ilyicha”, “Rimskaya” and others. Future plans include integrating the line with the Moscow City Railway Station “Serp i Molot”.

    A modern tram for a modern city:

    The line is served by seven modern Vityaz-Moskva trams, equipped with modern features including low floors for passenger comfort, climate control and charging stations. Trams run at 10-minute intervals, providing frequent and efficient service.

    Improving urban design:

    The introduction of the new tram line also enlivened Sergius of Radonezh Street. A dedicated pedestrian path appeared on the even side, providing residents with a convenient route from their home to the metro station and public transport stops. The roadway and sidewalks have been modernized, the street is decorated with new lighting, navigation signs and overground tram stops.

    Quiet and efficient travel:

    The new tram line uses innovative technologies: seamless rail laying, rubber seals and special vibration-damping mats. These design elements ensure a quiet and smooth ride, improving the passenger experience. In addition, the 3.9-kilometer track is separated from the roadway, which further improves safety and efficiency.

    Investing in the future of public transport:

    The new tram line represents a significant investment in Moscow’s public transport infrastructure and demonstrates the city’s commitment to providing residents with efficient and affordable transportation options. As the city celebrates the 125th anniversary of the Moscow tram, this new addition cements the tram’s role as an integral part of the city’s transportation system.

    With the opening of the new tram line and the launch of tram No. 2, residents now have new convenient routes for daily travel. The new line connects nine different railway lines, including the metro, MCD and MCC, and unites more than 200 social infrastructure facilities, including schools, hospitals and shopping centers, which further increases accessibility for residents, said Maxim Liksutov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.

    Dmitry Chernyshenko in the State Duma at an expanded meeting of the Committees on Family Protection, Fatherhood, Motherhood and Childhood, Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Affairs and Control

    Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko spoke in the State Duma at an expanded meeting of the committees on family protection, fatherhood, motherhood and childhood, labor, social policy and veterans’ affairs and control.

    The event was also attended by the Minister of Education Sergei Kravtsov, the Minister of Health Mikhail Murashko, the Deputy Chairperson of the State Duma Irina Yarovaya, the Chairperson of the Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans’ Affairs Yaroslav Nilov, the Chairperson of the Committee on Family Protection, Fatherhood, Motherhood and Childhood Nina Ostanina, the Chairperson of the Control Committee Oleg Morozov, the Auditor of the Accounts Chamber Dmitry Zaitsev and others.

    During his speech, Dmitry Chernyshenko noted the importance of ensuring effective approaches to health promotion, upbringing and additional education in children’s camps.

    “The topic that united us all here is summer recreation and health improvement for children. It is extremely important and has significance for ensuring a full future and development of our children. I would like to thank the entire deputy corps and personally the Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Viktorovich Volodin for their special attention to this area and their readiness to resolve pressing issues,” the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

    He expressed confidence that all participants of the joint meeting will make every effort to make an effective approach to strengthening health, developing physical and creative skills of children, providing the opportunity for upbringing and additional education during their vacation and stay at the camp.

    Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized that education must correspond to the instructions given by Russian President Vladimir Putin and to domestic spiritual and moral values.

    “We are taking a completely sober approach to assessing the situation. We understand how much still needs to be done. We clearly assess the positive dynamics, they are in all areas. It is important to understand whether they are sufficient or not and whether we need to redistribute priorities and make some more efforts. We analyze all these parameters and make sure to refer to them during our regional visits,” the Deputy Prime Minister said.

    He also thanked Irina Yarovaya for developing the draft law “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On the Basic Guarantees of Children’s Rights in the Russian Federation”, which provides for the preparation of a unified program of educational work in children’s camps.

    Minister of Education Sergei Kravtsov reported that the issue of raising the status of the interdepartmental commission on issues of organizing children’s recreation and health improvement to the level of a government commission has been worked out.

    “We are discussing the interim results of the past health campaign and talking about the tasks for the future. Currently, there are slightly more than 2 thousand stationary children’s camps operating in Russia. We are building new children’s camps, the International Children’s Center “Artek” is expanding. The construction of the federal center “Pechory” continues. We hope that we will open it next year,” said Sergey Kravtsov.

    The head of the Ministry of Education noted that a common strategy for the development of education is needed, which will unite the system of secondary vocational education, general education and children’s recreation.

    “Today we are preparing a general strategy for the development of education, where children’s recreation will be one of the components. And we set the task of approving this strategy before the start of the next summer health campaign,” he said.

    In addition, Sergey Kravtsov said that all pedagogical universities subordinate to the Ministry of Education have organized training for camp counselors, and their training program has been approved. Today, there are almost 88 thousand camp counselors in Russia. The monitoring of organizations involved in their training is currently being completed. Its results will be presented at the All-Russian forum “Big Meanings” in October of this year.

    Health Minister Mikhail Murashko reported that issues of medical care for children during summer holidays are legally regulated, and that children’s camps are sufficiently staffed with medical workers.

    “In 2024, 20% fewer children fell ill in health camps than the year before. The trend is positive. The health period with the formation of healthy habits and healthy behavior allows us to work with children most effectively, including with physical activity. We must not forget the issue of childhood obesity, introducing programs for proper eating behavior, prevention of bad habits,” the Minister of Health added.

    Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Irina Yarovaya noted that the common task of all departments and regions is to help organizers of children’s recreation, to create conditions that will make accidents and any unfavorable consequences impossible. She emphasized that it was precisely these approaches that had yielded their high-quality results.

    Irina Yarovaya added that universal formats for raising children in summer camps are needed; counselors should have a tool that will allow them, regardless of their experience and education, having a set of uniform programs, to implement them with equal quality.

    During the event, the deputies asked the speakers questions of interest to them about the development of the children’s recreation system.
