After some time in preparation, and following an initial attempt to prioritise the allocation of network capacity, the Dutch NRA has now taken a (and this time: own) decision.
Priority for 'congestion softeners', safety, healthcare, housing etc.
officielebekendmakingen.nl/stc<…

Congestive softener A congestion softener is a party whose network operator, on the basis of the most up-to-date data from Annex 14, paragraph 1, determines that the allocation of transport capacity to this party leads to an increase in the available transport capacity, as referred to in Article 9.5, paragraph 4, for other parties and does not lead to an increase in congestion in another network part of that network operator or in the network of another network operator.

Wood-burning stoves face new restrictions in the U.K.—but a loophole from Britain's smog years is fueling the problem

Content warning: photograph in linked article shows blood on a steering wheel

The first paragraphs of this article are big news (I think?? IANAL): the FBI tried to shut MN out of the investigation of ICE’s murder of Renee Good, which almost certainly is the start of a cover-up. Minnesota initially threw up its hands and said “well that sucks.”
Today we learn that Minnesota and Hennepin County are still gathering evidence themselves, apparently independently of the FBI. My hope is that this is in pursuit of state charges, in defiance of the Trump-controlled FBI.
