Following the theory of stratification of tensor triangulated categories via Balmer-Favi support inaugurated by Barthel, Heard and Sanders, we prove the local versions of the well-known statements that the Balmer spectrum being noetherian or profinite scattered implies the local-to-global principle. That is, given an object $t$ of a tensor triangulated category $\mathcal{T}$ we show that if the Balmer-Favi support $\text{Supp}(t)$ is a noetherian space, then the local-to-global principle hold…

Kentucky GOP lawmakers remove Democratic governor's role in filling US Senate vacancies
Republican lawmakers in Kentucky have removed any role for the Democratic governor in filling a U.S. Senate vacancy. The GOP supermajority Legislature on Friday easily overrode Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto of the measure. The legislation calls for a special election to fill any Senate vacancy from the Bluegrass State. The special election winner would hold the seat for the remainder of the unexpired term. How a Senate vacancy is filled carries greater importance at a time when the Senate is close…
