Billing himself as the candidate for change in Springfield, Chris Kennedy for the first time on Tuesday, laid out his vision for Illinois should he be elected governor. NBC 5's Charlie Wojciechowski reports.
In a new survey, Chris Kennedy is maintaining his lead in the Democratic race for Illinois governor, but JB Pritzker is gaining traction.
The Garin-Hart-Yang survey, conducted on behalf of Kennedy for Illinois, focused on only two candidates. Kennedy had 44 percent with Pritzker at 38 percent and 18 percent undecided. Also running in the Democratic primary is State Sen. Daniel Biss and Chicago Ald. Ameya Pawar.
The poll of 602 likely Democratic primary votes was conducted the week of June 26.
Pritzker has kicked in $7 million of his own money and has been running TV ads throughout the state for nearly two months.
In mid-May, another survey showed Kennedy at the same 44 percent; Prtizker at 11 percent; City Treasurer Kurt Summers, who was considering a run at the time, at 7 percent; and undecided at 34 percent.
Summers has decided not to run for governor and has endorsed Pritzker.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Valiant Midstream LLC announced today it has entered into a long-term, fee-based natural gas gathering and processing agreement with Antioch Energy LLC. Antioch's dedication of more than 275,000 gross acres brings Valiant Midstream's total acreage commitments in the Arkoma Stack basin to 2.1 million. Antioch's production will be gathered and processed at Valiant Midstream's Stanberry Processing Complex, a cryogenic processing facility located in Coal County, Oklahoma.
Within the acreage dedicated to Valiant Midstream, Antioch expects to continue development of three production benches in the fast-growing Arkoma Stack – the Woodford, Mayes and Caney formations in eastern Oklahoma. Antioch owns over 24,000 net contiguous acres in the core of the Arkoma Stack and operates 60 wells. The net resource potential recoverable in Antioch's position is approximately 2 trillion cubic feet equivalent, with an inventory of 500-plus drilling locations.
As part of Valiant Midstream's long-term Arkoma Stack growth strategy, the company will add capacity to accommodate the Antioch dedication, as well as future customer capacity. The first 220 MMcf/d of cryogenic processing capacity will be available at the company's Stanberry plant near Coalgate, Okla., in November 2018. Additional capacity will become available in late 2019 and beyond, either through an expansion of the Stanberry facility or at a future Valiant Midstream plant site located near Atwood, Okla.
"We are extremely pleased to partner with Antioch Energy as we build upon one of the finest midstream systems in the Arkoma Stack basin," said Valiant Midstream President and CEO Brandon Webster. "With our scheduled enhancements and expansion plans, our system will ultimately span more than 160 miles, including a 60-mile trunk line running north to south through the core of the liquids-rich window of this highly active play, which will allow us to provide best-in-class processing for producers no matter the location of their acreage."
"This transformative transaction creates significant value to our production and reserves by realizing outstanding liquids value," said Antioch President Nathaniel Harding. "Valiant Midstream's best-in-class system will provide Antioch with superior processing and access to optimum pricing."
Antioch CEO Kevin Dunnington said. "Our partnership with Valiant Midstream reflects Antioch's mission to create value across all three stacked resource plays in our delineated, contiguous, core operated position with a full-scale infrastructure solution."
Valiant Midstream currently operates and is actively constructing a total of more than 160 miles of gathering pipeline in the Arkoma Stack basin; an additional 50 miles will be completed in northern Hughes County in 2019. In total, the company plans to add another 220 MMcf/d of processing capacity by 4Q 2019, bringing its total Arkoma Stack capacity to over 440 MMcf/d.

ZURICH (Reuters) - Swiss prosecutors have opened a criminal investigation into Sepp Blatter, the head of world soccer body FIFA, on suspicion of criminal mismanagement and misappropriation of funds, the Swiss attorney general’s office said on Friday.
It said Blatter was interrogated after a meeting of FIFA’s executive committee in Zurich, and authorities carried out a search at the organization’s headquarters on Friday.
“The office of the FIFA President has been searched and data seized,” the office of the attorney general (OAG) said.
It was the first time that authorities investigating corruption in the world’s most popular sport had pointed the finger directly at Blatter, the 79-year-old Swiss who has run its powerful governing body for the past 17 years.
He has denied wrongdoing and his U.S. attorney said he was cooperating with the Swiss probe.
A source close to FIFA said that as Blatter has not been arrested, charged or indicted, it would probably be for him to decide whether he stays in his post until February, when he is due to step down.
The news of the investigation broke shortly after FIFA had abruptly canceled a Blatter press conference at 15 minutes’ notice, offering no explanation.
He had been due to speak for the first time since his number two, Jerome Valcke, was suspended last week following accusations regarding ticket sales at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Valcke denied the allegations.
In a sign of concern over the implications of the deepening investigation, Russia was quick to say that it would not affect its hosting of the 2018 World Cup, one of the biggest and most lucrative events in sport.
FIFA’s awarding of the 2018 and 2022 competitions to Russia and Qatar is one of the strands under scrutiny from U.S. and Swiss authorities investigating corruption in the organization — a worry for tournament sponsors such as McDonald’s Corp, Coca-Cola and Visa.
The scandal exploded in May, when 14 soccer officials and sports marketing executives were indicted. Seven were arrested by Swiss police in a dawn raid on a five-star Zurich hotel.
The Swiss OAG said Blatter had been questioned by its representatives, and that Michel Platini, the former French midfield soccer star who runs European soccer body UEFA, had also been asked to give information.
Platini is favorite to win the election to replace Blatter when he steps down in February. Blatter once described their relationship as “like father and son”, but it broke down irretrievably earlier this year when Platini urged him to quit.
A Swiss law enforcement source said that Platini had provided Swiss prosecutors with evidence against Blatter and was not regarded as a target of investigators at this point.
Swiss investigators have been putting together their case against Blatter for some time, a law enforcement official said.
The official said Blatter is not in custody and is free to travel, though he has largely avoided leaving Switzerland since May.
According to the Swiss criminal code, Blatter could, if convicted, face a custodial sentence of up to five years depending on the circumstances of the offence.
The OAG statement said he was suspected of a “disloyal payment” of 2 million Swiss francs ($2.05 million) to Platini at the expense of FIFA, allegedly made for work performed between January 1999 and June 2002.
The payment was executed in February 2011, the OAG said. It did not say why the payment was “disloyal” or what became of the money.
The OAG said it also suspected Blatter of signing a contract in 2005 with the Caribbean Football Union (CFU), then headed by Trinidadian soccer baron Jack Warner, that was unfavorable for FIFA and had “violated his fiduciary duties”, or duties of trust.
According to a FIFA document seen by Reuters, the 2005 agreement required that FIFA be paid both up-front “rights fees” and a 50 percent share of revenue from “broadcast sponsorship and commercial airtime opportunities”.
But according to the document — a July 2011 letter signed by FIFA’s now suspended secretary general Valcke — Warner’s CFU did not make any of the payments that were due.
FIFA said in a statement on Friday that it had been cooperating with the Swiss authorities since May and had complied with all requests for documents, data and other information. “We will continue this level of cooperation throughout the investigation,” it said.
A spokeswoman for U.S. prosecutors declined to comment. The FBI said it did not comment on other agencies’ investigations.
Damian Collins, a British member of parliament and co-founder of campaign group NewFIFANow, said the opening of the criminal probe against Blatter and the questioning of Platini showed the need to overhaul soccer’s governing body under an independent interim administration.
“The house of FIFA is tumbling down,” he said.
As the scandal reverberated around the world and his position became untenable, he announced only days later that he would step down, though for the time being he remains in office until the election of his successor.
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - A former University of Dayton coach who was found guilty of aggravated vehicular homicide has been sentenced to four years in prison.
Authorities say Paul Ivkovich was sentenced Tuesday in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court. The 37-year-old Dayton man was charged after crashing his vehicle in Dayton in April 2015. Sharon Crawford, a passenger in the vehicle, was killed in the crash.
Investigators say Ivkovich’s blood alcohol content at the time was .227 percent. That’s nearly three times the legal limit of .08 percent.
Ivkovich was found guilty in December 2016.
A message seeking comment was left for Ivkovich’s attorney.
Ivkovich was the university’s strength and conditioning coach for the men’s and women’s basketball teams.
Facebook has rejected an ad for a movie that aims to tell the “true story” of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that established a legal right to abortion, according to the film’s producer.
Nick Loeb, who also co-wrote and co-directed “Roe v. Wade,” explained to WND that his attempt to “boost” a Facebook post promoting the film — turning it into a widely distributed ad — was rejected without explanation.
“It’s obviously the continued censorship of conservative content,” he said.
The ad is a link to a Hollywood Reporter article about the film. It’s accompanied by a photo of actor Jon Voight, who plays a Supreme Court justice in the film, and the hashtag #BringRoevWadeToLife.
The New York Post cited a Facebook source saying that in the wake of foreign interference in the 2016 election, movies with a political agenda, such as the documentary about Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, need a “Paid for by” disclosure.
Loeb argued that while abortion may be a political issue, the ad is for a movie.
One year ago, WND reported a crowdfunding site for the movie was blocked by Facebook.
The ads involve advocacy for an issue under our “issues of national importance.” As you know, in May we made big changes to the way ads related to politics or issues work on Facebook.
1. Page admins and ad account admins will submit their government-issued ID and provide a residential mailing address for verification.
2. We’ll confirm each address by mailing a letter with a unique access code that only the admin’s Facebook account can use.
3. Advertisers will have to disclose who paid for the ads; The ads will also live in a searchable Ad Archive for up to seven years.
Transparency continues to be a major priority for us in order to prevent election interference, so we are taking a broad approach to start as we roll out this policy further.
“We’re doing to them what they did to us for years,” he told WND.
He argues the justices in the 1973 Supreme Court decision were influenced by the media and their families, and relied on biased sources with unreliable data.
“Some of their families were working for Planned Parenthood at the time, and they didn’t truly look at the case from a constitutional perspective,” he said.
Loeb said he and his team are working on a deal with a distributor that will put the movie in theaters before the end of the year.
Loeb has a part in the film as the famous abortion doctor who became a pro-life activist, Dr. Bernard Nathanson.
The executive producer is Alveda King, a niece of Martin Luther King Jr. and the head of the group Civil Rights for the Unborn.
The producers, calling it the “most important pro-life movie in history,” say Hollywood “only wants you to hear their version of the story,” noting there are three movies in development that take a pro-abortion stance.
You might not know Thylane Blondeau from Adam, but you may recall a furore four years ago that involved Vogue Paris and a spread featuring a 10-year-old girl in a gold, low-cut dress and a lot of make-up.
Said child was Blondeau, and the adult, arguably seemingly sexualised nature of the images put her at the centre of a row concerning what situations are deemed appropriate when it comes to scenarios involving child models.
But French native Blondeau was no ingénue, she’d been modelling since the age of four after Jean Paul Gaultier scouted her in the street and cast her in one of his catwalk shows. Campaigns for the likes of Ralph Lauren and Lacoste followed, and she's since earned a startling amount of Tumblr and Instagram fan pages/accounts documenting her every shot (as well as accruing 69,000 followers on her official feed).
Now 14, she’s gracing the pages of Teen Vogue and has signed with IMG Models, one of the biggest international model agencies who boasts Lara Stone and Joan Smalls on its books.
And she clearly hasn’t tired of her hobby after a successful decade. “My favorite part of the job is meeting new photographers and makeup artists. I love to try on the clothes, too!” she tells the publication.
Blondeau, who lives in Marseille and whose father is French footballer Patrick Blondeau, is set to star in a film, Belle & Sebastian 2, and also has her own YouTube channel. In a video revealing 25 facts about herself, the confident teenager discloses that she hates salads (but loves fruit), loves spending her weekends in St Tropez and is a diminutive 1m64cm in height.
If she doesn’t reach catwalk proportions, we’re sure we’ll see a lot more of her piercing blue eyes in fashion campaigns over the years to come – that’s if she doesn’t hit the big time in film world.

Microsoft is set to unveil its next generation of handsets and telephony devices that tie into the current beta trials of Office Communications Server 2007 and Office Communicator 2007. Notable partners in the venture (unveiled at WinHEC this year) include ASUSTek Computer Inc., GN, LG-Nortel Co. Ltd., NEC Corp., Plantronics Inc., Polycom Inc., SAMSUNG, Tatung Co. and ViTELiX. Microsoft's eventual plan is to provide the communications software that enables a wide variety of communication methods, including e-mail, IM, conferencing, VoIP, and mobile communications.
Microsoft's approach with these devices is built around three design precepts. "Just Works" is meant to ensure that handsets are fully compatible out-of-the-box with all Microsoft communications software and function as smoothly as any (modern) Plug-and-Play device. "Greater choice and innovation" is meant to ensure that customers have a maximum amount of options when selecting phones from various vendors, while "Improved economics" expresses Microsoft's belief that the wide variety of available models will allow businesses to select only the handsets with features they need, thereby saving money.
Quotes like this, however, make me shake my head at "marketing speak."
Today’s office phone is marooned on an island, separate from the rest of the communications tools that information workers rely on to do their jobs," said Jeff Raikes, president of the Microsoft Business Division. "By weaving the business phone together with e-mail, instant messaging, presence, conferencing and the productivity software people use most, we are putting voice communications back into business."
Silly me. I wasn't aware it had ever left.
This is basically getting first-strike capability, isn't it?
Definitely not the flying base Captain Fury was looking forward to.
Nor Colonel White, for that matter.

"It does have possibilities for international rescue operations"
Ah, but could it be made Hood-proof ?
It works in conjunction with the new Amazon floating warehouses, which are certainly NOT converted oil tankers intended to capture and house ballistic nuclear missile submarines. No, the new flying platform is intended to simply launch Amazon's new range of drones under the leadership of the new Amazon CEO Harold 'Bezos' Saxon.
> It does have possibilities for international rescue operations.
Who would have to pay a licensing fee to use the "novel idea."
Re: > It does have possibilities for international rescue operations.
I take it back, "Storks" got there first.
Patent denied - prior art and therefore not novel.
It would have to be able to handle the entire rainbow of colours.
The drones should be made to loiter and collect trash cubes made by the Wall-E ground bots while they're at it.
