Pope Francis' one-day visit to Estonia on Tuesday will mean traffic restrictions and disruptions in Tallinn, primarily in the city centre, around Liivalaia Street, on Mere Puiestee and in the Kadriorg subdistrict. Those interested in coming to greet the Papal Motorcade are advised to do so at Tammsaare Park and on Musumägi Hill.
The Pope's plane is scheduled to arrive shortly before 10:00 EEST on Tuesday, after which his motorcade will travel to Kadriorg. According to the police, traffic in Central Tallinn and Kadriorg will begin to see restrictions around that time. The morning rush hour, however, should remain unaffected, reported ETV news broadcast "Aktuaalne kaamera."
"First and foremost, people should plan for extra time," said North Prefecture officer Sander Kullamaa. "Where the Pope will be moving and visiting are no longer a secret. Traffic will be stopped, for 15-20 minutes at a time — this means that we will literally be stopping traffic for 15-20 minutes."
Kaarli Puiestee and Freedom Square will not be accessible by car, and traffic will be restricted on Komandandi Road as well. Incoming traffic on Endla Street will be redirected toward Tõnismäe via Suur-Ameerika and Toompuiestee. Traffic on Estonia Puiestee will be directed onto Pärnu Highway, but vehicles will not be allowed to turn off of Pärnu Highway toward Freedom Square.
"People can go everywhere," Kullamaa clarified. "There are no major restrictions to pedestrian traffic. Even if there are restrictions to pedestrian traffic in the city centre, officials will direct you. During Holy Mass, however, which will be the culmination of the visit, Kaarli Puiestee between Pärnu Highway and Tõnismäe will be closed from 13:00-19:00; regular traffic will certainly not be allowed through there."
The surest way to see Pope Francis will be to attend the Holy Mass at Freedom Square, but only ticket-holders who registered in advance will be admitted. The best chance to catch a glimpse of the Pope for those who were unable to secure a ticket will be at Tammsaare Park and on Musumägi Hill.
"The motorcade will drive by there at approimately 12:45," Kullamaa said, adding that this is a good chance for a sighting of the Pope. "It's another matter entirely whether spectators who gather there will see the Pope specifically; that I can't promise right now."
The Pope's departing flight is scheduled to take off from Tallinn Airport at approximately 18:45, after which traffic in the city will be fully restored to normal.
The final draft of citizens in Assam, which leaves out over 40 lakh people, provoked political anger with opposition parties targeting the government in parliament today. Among them was the Trinamool Congress of Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who accused the ruling BJP of trying to identify and isolate people who don't vote for the party. "They are turning Indian people into refugees in their own country," Ms Banerjee said at a press meet she called at short notice in Kolkata before leaving for Delhi.
She said she would try to meet Home Minister Rajnath Singh on the subject. "I am sending a team of party MPs to Assam and if necessary, I will go there too," she said.
Assam's National Register of Citizens or NRC has been updated for the first time since 1951 to account for illegal migration from neighbouring Bangladesh.
Releasing the updated list, officials underscored that no one would be deported or arrested as this was only a draft.
Claims and objections from those left out of the citizens' list will be taken up from August 30 to September 28. "No genuine Indian citizen should have any fear," said Registrar General of India, Sailesh.
But opposition parties see the recount as a move to target Assam's Muslim population on the pretext of weeding out Bangladeshi migrants.
"Such a huge step is being taken. Shouldn't the government have conversation with Bengal?" Ms Banerjee said.
"Every state has people staying from other states, like Gujarat and Maharashtra."
Ms Banerjee's Trinamool Congress, the Congress, CPM and Samajwadi party protested in parliament, saying the list puts "human rights and democratic rights" of people at stake.
"Some people are unnecessarily trying to create an atmosphere of fear... This is a draft and not the final list," Home Minister Rajnath Singh said.
Urging parties not to "create panic", the Home Minister said: "It is a sensitive issue and should not be politicised unnecessarily."
A home ministry official, Satyendra Garg, said that no one would be deported or arrested based on today's list, which was only a draft.
Of 3.29 crore people who had applied for their names to be included, 2.89 crore have made it to the revised citizens' list. The rest face the prospect of being declared illegal and sent out unless they can satisfy the doubts of the authorities.
A Greenville police officer shared a video he took of a talented young dancer while responding to a call over the weekend.
A video of a young local dancer shared by the Greenville Police Department is getting quite a bit of attention on the department's Facebook page.
The video was posted to the Greenville Police Department page Monday morning.
Officer Kawain Harrison recorded the video of 12-year-old Javon while responding to a call for service over the weekend.
The video shows Javon performing his best Michael Jackson moves to the tune of 'Billie Jean'. The 12-year-old dancer is also wearing a single white glove and a studded white off-white jacket for the performance in the middle of a neighborhood street.
Greenville Police said the white glove Javon wore in the video is one his grandfather wears when he ushers at church on Sundays.
He told Ofc. Harrison he learned his moves from watching Ellen DeGeneres.
Hillary Clinton, who joked about taking the stage wearing "an asbestos pantsuit" Thursday night, won what could turn out to be the critical debate of the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
To suggest otherwise would be to underestimate the power, the authority and, yes, the intangibly presidential quality of Clinton's response to a question posed mid-way through the Las Vegas debate by CNN's Campbell Brown.
Brown asked about a speech the New York senator recently gave at her alma mater, Wellesley College in Massachusetts. Clinton had told the Wellesley crowd, "[In] so many ways, this all women's college prepared me compete in the all boys' club of presidential politics."
Hillary Clinton, who joked about taking the stage wearing “an asbestos pantsuit” Thursday night, won what could turn out to be the critical debate of the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
To suggest otherwise would be to underestimate the power, the authority and, yes, the intangibly presidential quality of Clinton’s response to a question posed mid-way through the Las Vegas debate by CNN’s Campbell Brown.
“What did you mean at Wellesley when you referred to the boy’s club?” asked Brown.
Clinton paused. She smiled like the Cheshire cat.
“Campbell!” the Democratic frontrunner declared in mock exasperation.
Clinton’s point was made. Everyone got it. Of course, there is a boy’s club — in politics and in media — and that cannot come as news to Campbell Brown.
But the senator, who understood she was finally regaining ground lost after several tough weeks as a frontrunner under assault, was not going to let this magic moment pass quickly.
“It is clear, I think, from women’s experiences, that from time to time, there may be some impediments,” Clinton continued, taking every advantage of the sort of opening that rarely comes in a live and relatively unscripted political setting.
Clinton had rehearsed this answer. That was beyond debate.
Clinton was playing the gender card — even if she denied doing so.
Clinton left her most aggressive challengers, both of whom had been gaining ground on her going into Thursday night’s debate, no space.
When former North Carolina Senator John Edwards followed Clinton’s “not-playing-the-gender-card” soliloquy with a mild criticism of the frontrunner, he was roundly booed by the crowd.
Not long afterward, when Illinois Senator Barack Obama took a swing at Clinton, he was booed just as loudly.
Clinton had cornered them. They had no room for movement.
She won the night, and she might well have won a great deal more.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced on Friday that he is proposing rule changes that will ban bump stock-type devices, which are gun attachments that enable semi-automatic weapons to fire more rapidly. The rules would be amended so that bump stock-type devices would be defined as a “machine gun” under federal law. Civilian ownership of machine guns has been heavily restricted under federal law since 1986. If the proposal is signed into law, current holders of bump-stocks would be required to surrender their devices, according to the Justice Department. "After the senseless attack in Las Vegas, this proposed rule is a critical step in our effort to reduce the threat of gun violence that is in keeping with the Constitution and the laws passed by Congress," Sessions said in a statement.
The bar promises an eclectic mix of DJs, live bands, and strong drinks.
Matt Shapiro said he can have more fun with the booking in Oakland.
After the Night Light closed abruptly in September, there was uncertainty about what would happen to the Jack London district space. Opened in 2012, the bar hosted regular DJ nights and live bands, becoming a hub for local nightlife. Then, the owners of the Elbo Room, a live-music institution in San Francisco, bought the business and began remodeling it — a promising development.
Elbo Room Jack London (311 Broadway) quietly opened its doors on March 1. Although the venue has only been open for about a month, owners Matt Shapiro and Erick Cantu said their vision for the new space is coming together.
"The response has been good," said Shapiro. "We've been keeping it low-key. We didn't do a lot of press at the beginning. We were trying to figure out the kinks first."
Those who enjoyed live music at The Night Light will be happy to know that Shapiro and Cantu are booking an eclectic mix of bands at Elbo Room Jack London as well. Also, expect a variety of DJs in the downstairs bar, but in a new, discreet location: The DJ booth has been moved to the front of the bar, near the entrance.
The upstairs space where bands played remains fairly the same, however, the downstairs has undergone slight changes: In addition to the relocated DJ booth, there's also a new seating arrangement, which will feel familiar to fans of the Elbo Room in San Francisco: raised-up wood benches. Along with minimally lighted ambience, the bar also has a new and improved photo booth.
Another welcome change to the bar is a brand-new cocktail list, curated by Cantu. There's also a selection of six local brews from Harmonic Brewing, Trumer, Drake's, Moonlight, and Bear Republic Brewery.
Over the years, bars and music venues have struggled to keep open in the Jack London district: Kimball's Carnival, Vitus, the Night Light, and, more recently, Overland are some of the places that have closed. Still, Shapiro and Cantu are optimistic about the neighborhood. "I really like the neighborhood a lot, we're literally and figuratively right between Merchant's [Saloon] and the Fat Lady, and that's great," Shapiro said. "People are stoked to play in Oakland. There's a lot of enthusiasm."
Opening a venue in Oakland was not, in fact, their original plan. Instead, the duo had been looking for a space in San Francisco to move to once their lease at their current address is up. (The building is slated to be demolished to make way for new housing.) Shapiro said that, as of now, the Mission district venue will remain open until January 2019, and perhaps beyond. "I have a feeling we'll be there longer, but I don't know for sure," Shapiro said.
But now that they are in Oakland, Shapiro and Cantu are putting in the effort to make it a success. Cantu runs the day-to-day operations, while Shapiro is in charge of the booking, and they're both as heavily involved in the new location as they are in San Francisco. They currently have a staff of ten, and Shapiro expects to hire additional staff as the crowds increase.
As for the vision of the space, Shapiro said to expect "a smaller scale but more vibrant vision of SF," he said. "Eclectic, keep it more interesting." With the East Bay being more welcoming to different kinds of music, "I can have more fun with the booking," he said.

Burger King apologized and pulled an ad to plug its Vietnamese Sweet Chilli Tendercrisp burger that was sent from its New Zealand Instagram account. The video clip showed people trying, awkwardly, to eat the burgers with chopsticks. Twitter user Maria Mo, among others, called the ad out on Twitter; she accused the brand of making fun of Asian culture. “Orientalism is harmless funnnn,” she tweeted.
The ad has been getting wide attention far beyond New Zealand. In the U.S., outlets including The Washington Post, People and HuffPost picked up the story about the fast-food chain being under fire for the content.
Burger King apologized, calling the ad insensitive and saying it "does not reflect our brand values regarding diversity and inclusion,” according to Bloomberg News. VMLY&R New Zealand reportedly handles creative, social, digital and media for the brand; the agency directed queries to Burger King.
Dolce & Gabbana suffered massive fallout from some very similar ads in China last year; a boycott call spread, and the luxury brand had to cancel its Shanghai fashion show. The Dolce & Gabbana story was big international news; surely Burger King New Zealand heard about it?
A question: Are Asian and Chinese consumers paying attention to this? As Bloomberg notes, the fast-food chain is expanding in Asia and opened about 100 new restaurants last year in China. It’s feasible that one social ad from New Zealand (population 4.8 million) might hurt the brand’s prospects in China (population 1.4 billion).
Heat, bought by Deloitte Digital back in 2016, seems to know what Droga5, the indie creative shop just acquired by Accenture Interactive, is going through right now. To welcome Droga5 to the club of ad agencies owned by consultancies, Heat delivered a stash of donuts and aspirin to its offices, and released a video of the stunt.
We suppose for the agencies involved in these deals, there may be mixed feelings: Part of you feels like celebrating and part of you feels hungover, wondering what on earth you’ve done.
As Congress ponders legislation on consumer data privacy, ad industry trade groups have joined together to try to influence lawmakers’ thinking. George P. Slefo writes in Ad Age that the new coalition is called “Privacy for America,” and it groups together the 4A's, Association of National Advertisers, Digital Advertising Alliance, Interactive Advertising Bureau and Network Advertising Initiative.
The group is pushing for federal privacy legislation, including a "Data Protection Bureau" at the Federal Trade Commission. You might wonder whether federal regulation on consumer data is in the self-interest of the advertising trade groups, which represent brands and agencies along with digital players like Facebook.
But as the thinking goes, there’s clearly something worse: 50 states with their own separate privacy policies.
Real news about The Onion: Great Hill Partners, a private equity firm, “bought The Onion from Univision Communications Inc., along with Gizmodo, Deadspin and Jezebel,” Bloomberg News reports. The sites reportedly sold for much less than the $135 million Univision paid as it acquired them in 2016.
Oops: The San Francisco Giants, which play in Oracle Park, gave fans a calendar with a view of the city’s skyline, Bloomberg News writes. But there was something missing: The city’s tallest building, the Salesforce Tower, which is headquarters to Oracle's rival. The team claims that, hey, it was an honest mistake, according to Bloomberg, and that it hasn't gotten a new photo since the tower was built.
Zombies forever: AMC says another spin-off of “The Walking Dead” will debut in 2020. “It will center on two young females who are among the first generation to come of age in the apocalypse,” Ad Age’s Jeanine Poggi writes.
Product of the day: Perhaps you saw this and thought it was an April Fools’ Joke. “It's two individually delicious things that should never, ever be combined: mayonnaise and Cadbury Creme Eggs, the combination of which is dubbed, very questionably, ‘[Seriously] Good Mayo,” the “Today” show writes. The odd collaboration comes from Heinz and Cadbury. And it’s only available in the U.K.
For better coordination among various stakeholders, the Karnataka State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (KSCPCR) is framing a set of standard operating procedures for implementation of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act.
When a case of child sexual abuse surfaces, many stakeholders such as the police, doctors, child welfare committee, public prosecutors among others have to get involved.
“There is no coordination among the departments and it is quite haphazard. We want to create a better link among stakeholders, so that it is clear who has to enter the process when. This will help with speedy disposal of cases,” said Kripa Alva, chairperson of KSCPCR.
The commission is creating stakeholder-specific standard operating procedures (SOPs) working with several non-governmental and governmental organisations.
The department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the National Institute of Mental Health & Neuro Sciences (Nimhans) has developed an SOP detailing the protocol for agencies providing psychosocial and mental health care for children who are victims of sexual abuse.
NGO Enfold Trust is assisting the state police to draw up an SOP and is also creating guidelines for support persons, who remain with the family through the entire process of filing the complaint, medical examinations, trials and so on.
“The Pocso Act provides for a support person but not everyone can become one. The SOP clearly lays out what training and knowledge they should have. It describes the role of the support person and ensures that they don’t trample on existing government systems,” said Kushi Kushalappa of Enfold Trust.
Provisions for witness protection and compensation for the victim exist, but families are often not aware of this, said B T Venkatesh, former public prosecutor in the Karnataka High Court.
As partner at ReachLaw, he mooted the idea of creating SOPs. “The law talks about how to take a complaint and what procedures are to be followed but it does not think about how to make things work for the victim,” he said.
Alva said that drawing up and finalising the SOP would take another two or three months, after which it will be presented to the government.
Now Timmons — originally penciled in at the punt return spot at this time a year ago before a few drops in scrimmages derailed that plan — has gained some confidence in his ability to return punts at any level.
"Last year I felt like I was thinking too much, not being myself, just trying to do everything right," the 5-foot-10 former Franklin County star said. "Now I'm just playing more loosely, just playing the game."
Because of the added confidence in his game and his body, the punt return duties are likely to fall in his hands.
"I would love to see Ryan do it," Kentucky Coach Mark Stoops said. "He's been very reliable so far in camp. He's done a very nice job, and I'd like to see him win that job."
Even Timmons' coordinator is happy to see one of his top weapons on offense get in on the punt returns.
