For former President Jimmy Carter who died on Sunday at his home in Plains, Georgia, at the age of 100, there will be two public observances—one in Atlanta and another in Washington, D.C., followed by a private interment, The Carter Center said in a statement. Why It Matters Carter was the longest living president in U.S. history. What to Know President Joe Biden said in a Sunday statement that he "will be ordering an official state funeral to be held in Washington D.C." Details of the state funeral, which is a formal ceremony with traditions of lying in state, processions, religious services, military honors, and national mourning, will be released by the Joint Task Force-National Capital Region. State funerals are typically a week to 10 days of events, with three stages, as outlined by the task force: "Stage I includes ceremonies within the state in which the president, former president, or president-elect was in residence. Stage II includes ceremonies within Washington, DC, and Stage III includes ceremonies in the state in which the authorized individual has chosen to be interred." Last year, Biden said at a fundraiser that Carter "asked me to do his eulogy" when the time came. Newsweek has reached out to the White House for comment via email on Sunday. The last presidential state funeral was held in 2018 for former President George H.W. Bush , who died from a form of Parkinson's disease at age 94. His funeral took place at the Washington National Cathedral, which has hosted four state funerals. The 39th president is survived by his children, Jack, Chip, Jeff, and Amy, 11 grandchildren , and 14 great-grandchildren. His wife, former first lady Rosalynn Carter, passed away last November. She was buried in Plains, Georgia, and Carter will rest in peace next to her. The couple was married for 77 years, the longest marriage in presidential history. In lieu of flowers, the Carter family requests contributions to The Carter Center, which can be completed online . Tributes will be collected in the Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Enduring Hope Fund, according to the website. What People Are Saying Biden and first lady Jill Biden said in a statement on Sunday: "Today, America and the world lost an extraordinary leader, statesman and humanitarian. Over six decades, we had the honor of calling Jimmy Carter a dear friend. But, what's extraordinary about Jimmy Carter, though, is that millions of people throughout America and the world who never met him thought of him as a dear friend as well...We will miss them both [Rosalynn and Jimmy Carter] dearly, but take solace knowing they are reunited once again and remain forever in our hearts." Chip Carter, the former president's son, said in a statement released by The Carter Center on Sunday: "My father was a hero, not only to me but to everyone who believes in peace, human rights, and unselfish love. My brothers, sister, and I shared him with the rest of the world through these common beliefs. The world is our family because of the way he brought people together, and we thank you for honoring his memory by continuing to live these shared beliefs." President-elect Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social on Sunday : "The challenges Jimmy faced as President came at a pivotal time for our country and he did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans. For that, we all owe him a debt of gratitude. Melania and I are thinking warmly of the Carter Family and their loved ones during this difficult time. We urge everyone to keep them in their hearts and prayers." Former President Bill Clinton and former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a joint statement on X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday: "Hillary and I mourn the passing of President Jimmy Carter and give thanks for his long, good life. Guided by his faith, President Carter lived to serve others—until the very end...I will always be proud to have presented the Medal of Freedom to him and Rosalynn in 1999, and to have worked with him in the years after he left the White House." What Happens Next Details of the public observances will be released in the coming days. "The final arrangements for President Carter's state funeral, including all public events and motorcade routes, are still pending," The Carter Center said in its statement.

Former president Jimmy Carter passed away at age 100 on December 29. He is survived by his four children; Amy, Donnel, John and James and 11 grandchildren, and 14 great-grandchildren. Carter lived out the latter years of his life with his enormous family. In conversation with CNN in 2015, he said, "Our family has grown. There are 38 of us in total, including 22 grandchildren and great-grandchildren. So, we try to hold our family together and just enjoy the family life."

Login or signup to continue reading The move has sparked an outcry from surrounding residents seeking to vent their concern about the project's potential adverse impacts on native habitat and local traffic among other issues. If built, about 180 homes would be built on the 26 hectare site. The matter was referred to the commission in August after the D epartment of Planning granted a City of Newcastle request to discontinue the planning assessment process for development proposal. It followed an Environment Protection Authority submission relating to the impact of odours, gases and air emissions generated from the Summerhill Waste Management Centre. The commission held a stakeholder meeting with project's proponents and the City of Newcastle earlier this month. It was not required to hold a public meeting due to the nature of the advice request from the department. It is due to provide its advice to the Department of Planning about the project's future within the next fortnight. Even though the houses in proposed development would be further from the waste cell than some existing homes, the proponent has been requested to conduct a 12 month study into how 505 Minmi Rd could be affected. Planning consultant Stephen Barr previously said he was concerned about a lack of consistency in the application of planning assessment for the 505 Minmi Road project and those surrounding it. He highlighted the fact that an equivalent request was not made of the developers of the adjacent Minmi Estate development that was approved earlier this year. "But I think it (the EPA request) also raises the question of if we're being impacted by the emissions or the environmental matters as a result of the waste management facility then there's obviously land a lot closer which is being impacted too." Mr Barr also raised concern about the council's dual role in managing the waste facility while also providing advice to the department about the future use of surrounding land. "You have got a situation where one part of the organisation is endorsing the need for more studies to look at the impact of the waste facility and the other part is saying the waste facility is fine," he said. The site has been the subject of a decades long tug of war between its owner Peter Durbin and the Green Corridor Coalition that wants it incorporated into a continuous corridor stretching from the Watagans nation Park to Stockton Bight. "There is only one corridor site left in the area not zoned for housing and that is 505 Minmi Road, Fletcher," Coalition spokesman Brian Purdue said previously. "Green Corridor Coalition again calls for this to be purchased for the National Parks Estate and then, along with the lands to Mt. Sugarloaf, fully protected by state parliament legislation, which is not presently protected." Matthew Kelly has worked as a journalist for more than 25 years.

TikTok's future in the U.S. appeared uncertain on Friday after a federal appeals court rejected a legal challenge to a law that requires the social media platform to cut ties with its China-based parent company or be banned by mid-January. A panel of three judges on The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled unanimously that the law withstood constitutional scrutiny, rebuffing arguments from the two companies that the statute violated their rights and the rights of TikTok users in the U.S. The government has said it wants ByteDance to divest its stakes in TikTok. But if it doesn't and the platform goes away, it would have a seismic impact on the lives of content creators who rely on the platform for income as well as users who use it for entertainment and connection. Here are some details on the ruling and what could happen next: What does the ruling say? In their lawsuit, TikTok and ByteDance, which is also a plaintiff in the case, had challenged the law on various fronts, arguing in part that the statute ran afoul of the First Amendment and was an unconstitutional bill of attainder that unfairly targeted the two companies. But the court sided with attorneys for the Justice Department who said that the government was attempting to address national security concerns and the way in which it chose to do so did not violate the constitution. The Justice Department has argued in court that TikTok poses a national security risk due to its connections to China. Officials say that Chinese authorities can compel ByteDance to hand over information on TikTok's U.S. patrons or use the platform to spread, or suppress, information. However, the U.S. hasn't publicly provided examples of that happening. The appeals court ruling, written by Judge Douglas Ginsburg, said the law was “carefully crafted to deal only with control by a foreign adversary." The judges also rejected the claim that the statute was an unlawful bill of attainder or a taking of property in violation of the Fifth Amendment. Furthermore, Ginsburg wrote the law did not violate the First Amendment because the government is not looking to “suppress content or require a certain mix of content” on TikTok. What happens next? TikTok and ByteDance are expected to appeal the case to the Supreme Court, but it's unclear whether the court will take up the case. TikTok indicated in a statement on Friday the two companies are preparing to take their case to high court, saying the Supreme Court has “an established historical record of protecting Americans’ right to free speech." "We expect they will do just that on this important constitutional issue,” a company spokesperson said. Alan Morrison, a professor at The George Washington University Law School, said he expects the Supreme Court to take up the case because of the novelty of the issues raised in the lawsuit. If that happens, attorneys for the two companies still have to convince the court to grant them an emergency stay that will prevent the government from enforcing the Jan. 19 divestiture deadline stipulated in the law, Morrison said. Such a move could drag out the process until the Justices make a ruling. Tiffany Cianci, a TikTok content creator who has supported the platform, said she was not shocked about the outcome of the court's ruling on Friday because lower courts typically defer to the executive branch on these types of cases. She believes the company will have a stronger case at the Supreme Court. “I believe that the next stages are more likely to produce a victory for TikTokers and for TikTok as a whole,” Cianci said. What about Trump? Another wild card is President-elect Donald Trump, who tried to ban TikTok during his first term but said during the recent presidential campaign that he is now against such action . The Trump transition team has not offered details on how Trump plans to carry out his pledge to “save TikTok." But spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said in a statement last month that he plans to “deliver” on his campaign promises. After Trump takes office on Jan. 20th, it would fall on his Justice Department to enforce the law and punish any potential violators. Penalties would apply to any app stores that would violate a prohibition on TikTok and to internet hosting services which would be barred from supporting it. Some have speculated that Trump could ask his Justice Department to abstain from enforcing the law. But tech companies like Apple and Google, which offer TikTok's app on their app stores, would then have to trust that the administration would not come after them for any violations. Craig Singleton, senior director of the China program at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, said enforcement discretion — or executive orders — can not override existing law, leaving Trump with “limited room for unilateral action." There are other things Trump could potentially do. It's possible he could invoke provisions of the law that allow the president to determine whether a sale or a similar transaction frees TikTok from “foreign adversary” control. Another option is to urge Congress to repeal the law. But that too would require support from congressional Republicans who have overwhelmingly supported the prospect of getting TikTok out of the hands of a Chinese company. In a statement issued Friday, Republican Rep. John Moolenaar of Michigan, chairman of the House Select Committee on China, said he was “optimistic that President Trump will facilitate an American takeover of TikTok” and allow its continued use in the United States. Is anyone trying to buy TikTok? ByteDance has said it won't sell TikTok . And even if it wanted to, a sale of the proprietary algorithm that powers TikTok is likely to get blocked under Chinese export controls that the country issued in 2020. That means if TikTok is sold without the algorithm, its likely that the buyer would only purchase a shell of the platform that doesn't contain the technology that made the app a cultural powerhouse. Still, some investors, including Trump’s former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and billionaire Frank McCourt, have expressed interest in buying it. This week, a spokesperson for McCourt’s Project Liberty initiative, which aims to protect online privacy, said participants in their bid have made informal commitments of more than $20 billion in capital. The spokesperson did not disclose the identity of the participants. Haleluya Hadero, The Associated Press

Limited time offer. Meantime, the New York Giants are finally back on the winner’s list, but it could come at a hefty cost in the race for pick 1 at the draft. When running back Cam Akers caught a touchdown late in the third term, the Vikings jumped out to what looked like an unassailable 27-10 lead, but the Packers weren’t going to go down without a fight. Touchdowns to Packers duo Emmanuel Wilson and Malik Heath, plus a two-point conversion for Romeo Doubs, meant the Packers fell only two points short. Vikings quarter-back Sam Darnold had a day out, completing 33 out of 43 passes for 377 passing yards and three touchdowns. Darnold has had a terrific year under centre with youngster JJ McCarthy on the sidelines, leading the Vikings to a 14-2 record. Minnesota’s QB situation remains a point of intrigue as the post-season approaches, but The Athletic’s Dianna Russini is reporting that the Vikings “want Darnold back in Minnesota for 2025”. Wide receiver Jalen Nailor was electric for the Vikings with 81 yards which included an epic 31-yard touchdown, while Justin Jefferson (92 yards), Jordan Addison (69 yards), Aaron Jones (77 yards) and TJ Hockenson (68 yards) were also important contributors. Minnesota’s victory means they have set up an epic showdown with the Detroit Lions next week to decide which team clinches the NFC’s number one seed. Elsewhere, the New York Giants have returned to the winner’s list for the first time since early October after ruining the Indianapolis Colts’ playoff dreams. Quarter-back Drew Lock was in fine form with 309 passing yards and four touchdowns, while rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers had a career-best performance, racking up two touchdowns from seven catches and 171 yards. Tyrone Tracy Jr and Wan’Dale Robsinson both went for over 70 total yards as well for the Giants. Indianapolis’ hopes of remaining in playoff contention are now vanquished however after the Giants won their first home game of the season. Running back Jonathan Taylor posted 136 yards and two touchdowns, while wide-receiver duo Michael Pittman Jr (109 yards, one touchdown) and Alec Pierce (122 yards, one touchdown) also had strong outings. While the players and coaching staff of the Giants were ecstatic with a win, fans might be feeling a little torn. The Giants were frontrunners to secure the number one pick for the NFL draft, but the loss means their season win-loss record is now equal to that of the New England Patriots, Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns. When you take into account strength of schedule, the Giants have slid from pick 1 to probably pick 4 after today’s win. Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders and Miam’s Cam Ward are considered to be two of the leading candidates for that selection and have been linked to the Giants throughout the season. Josh Allen’s Buffalo Bills secured the second seed in the AFC after a 40-14 victory over the New York Jets, which gives head coach Sean McDermott the luxury of resting his starters next week against New England if he desires. Allen’s numbers were down by his usual standards given he is the frontrunner for the MVP this season, but that didn’t stop the Bills’ high-power offense from firing. The Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East after demolishing the Dallas Cowboys 41-7, despite missing star quarter-back Jalen Hurts due to concussion, while Tampa Bay destroyed Carolina 48-14 to move into fourth in the NFC. Star Eagles running back Saquon Barkley created history, becaming just the ninth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season. The AFC is heating up however, with the Denver Broncos, Cincinnati Bengals and Miami Dolphins all still vying to feature in the post-season. The Broncos can book their place in the playoffs if they defeat Kansas City next week (who are likely to rest their starters), while the Dolphins need to defeat the Jets and hope the Broncos slip up. The Bengals would need to defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers and hope that both the Broncos and Dolphins lose their respective matches. In other results, the Jacksonville Jaguars defeated the Tennessee Titans and the Las Vegas Raiders defeated the New Orleans Saints.Fenix Lighting Unveils TK30R White Laser Flashlight for Unmatched Long-Distance Illumination
