The Supreme Court of Virginia on Friday struck down the voter-approved redistricting amendment, upholding a lower court ruling that had declared the measure unconstitutional less than 24 hours after last week’s special election and briefly halted its implementation. The high court found that the amendment itself was flawed because lawmakers approved the proposal after voting […]

(The Center Square) – With long-living smoke detectors on the market and required to be installed in Illinois, public safety officials want cheap, less reliable devices off retailer shelves. Legislators and Public Safety Officials called Thursday for the state Senate to make progress on House Bill 4328, which would ban the sale of some smoke detectors in Illinois. A previous law, passed in 2017, changed the requirements for what smoke detectors could be installed in homes and buildings. A smoke detector must be hard-wired to a home and have a tamper-proof battery with a 10-year lifespan. The bill has been put forward once before, but was left to sit in the Senate after passing the House, according to Margaret Vaughn, government affairs coordinator for the Illinois Firefighters Association. Advocates said the delay in passing the bill has already cost lives. “There's been 288 residential fire deaths in Illinois since 2023, since they should have stopped the sale,” Vaughn said. “If those people had a fire inspection done, they wouldn't be a violation of state law.” Fire Marshal of the City of Champaign, Jeremy Mitchell, said the having effective smoke detectors is a major concern, especially in rural areas with fire departments that have longer response times. “Something that we want people to understand is that people tend not to die by being burned in fires. People die by asphyxiation because all of our modern furnishings made out of synthetic materials have tremendously toxic smoke,” Mitchell said. House sponsor of the bill Rep. Joyce Mason, D-Grayslake, said she has worked to loop retailers in on the bill. “I have had discussions with the Retail Merchants Association. They are not opposed to this bill. They are neutral on the bill and they understand the reason why we're doing it,” Mason said. Asked about potential use cases outside for the targeted devices – such as barns, sheds or campers – Vaughn said the ban would benefit non-mandated uses as well. “Even if you bought them for a shed or a doghouse – to keep them updated you would have to change the battery every six months. So you're actually spending more money in the long run to keep the thing working,” Vaughn said. The bill has been taken up by Sen. Chris Belt, D-East St. Louis, who was unable to join other advocates for their remarks Thursday.

В музейно-выставочном комплексе «Манеж» в Петербурге открылась выставка «Русский императив». На ней показывают картины Васнецова, Верещагина, Репина, Петрова-Водкина и Кандинского — а еще работы современных художников, которые, как заявил вице-губернатор города Борис Пиотровский, в своем творчестве «отражают специальную военную операцию». «Выставка посвящена нашей великой России, русским людям, которые всегда защищали страну и делают это сейчас», — заявил Пиотровский. Куратор выставки Антон Беликов добавил: «Выставка посвящена той силе, которая способна оторвать от дома, от семьи и сделать воинами». Вот несколько фотографий, на которых видно, что такое «русский императив».

(The Center Square) – A computer hack has changed the last week of classes at some University of Wisconsin campuses. The university on Thursday announced that a nationwide hack of the Canvas system has disrupted final exams. “A nationwide security incident at Instructure is disrupting Canvas across higher education, including at UW–Madison. As we know more, we will share it promptly,” the university said in a statement. Canvas is a national hub for tests, grades and study guides. UW-Madison provost John Zumbrunnen said without Canvas some professors are being told to cancel final exams. “If you are unable to administer your final exam or you feel students cannot prepare adequately without access to Canvas, you should use an alternative option, such as basing grades on work completed so far,” Zumbrunnen said in a statement. “You are encouraged to consult with your department chair, academic dean’s office or other colleagues as you weigh the options.” The hack is also delaying final grades. Typically, UW-Madison professors need to have final grades finished by May 11. The university said it is pushing that deadline back to May 14. The Canvas hack, however, is not just causing problems with grades and final exams. There are worries about security across the UW as well. "If Canvas prompts you to perform any action — such as clicking a link, logging in, resetting your password, or completing any tasks — do not proceed," UW-Madison told students in a warning on the school’s IT information page. Canvas first reported a hack May 1, saying it included student names, email addresses and ID numbers. The hack did not include passwords, dates of birth, government identifiers or financial information. UW leaders have not said how many students may have been exposed at the campus in Madison. Other UW schools have also been silent so far about the impact of the hack on their students.

House Speaker Kyle Hilbert said it was the only way to get a sought-after state question on ballot before they adjourn sine die.
