(WWBT) - Here's a glimpse at our top headlines before you head out the door. A cold, sunny Tuesday as a calm pattern holds for the rest of the workweek. Lows will be in the mid to upper 20s, highs in the mid-40s. Superintendent Jason Kamras said the decision wasn't easy. "This is one of the most heartbreaking recommendations I've ever made for you and likely will make," he said. Families were given the choice a few weeks ago to change their learning method for the second semester. The school board meeting on what to do for the second semester will be held on Dec. 8. That includes focusing on those living or working in congregate living facilities such as prisons or nursing homes. Until several years ago, some cadets were required to salute the Confederate statue. VMI's board voted to remove it after The Washington Post published a story describing an "atmosphere of hostility and cultural insensitivity."

But the chief minister of the northeastern state of Mizoram said on Sunday that he had held talks with a member of a committee of ousted lawmakers in Myanmar, which is attempting to reestablish the civilian government. Many of the people who have sought shelter in the remote Indian state since late February are defecting policemen and their families. “We have to help them in the time of need,” Mizoram lawmaker K. Vanlalvena, who attended the meetings, said in an interview. At least 250 people have been killed and thousands detained in Myanmar since Feb. 1, with security forces attempting to stamp out widespread pro-democracy protests.

  • The Effect of Infrastructural Integration of Regional Transport on Tourism Promotion: the Case of Guilan Province, Iran
    Journal of Urban and Regional Analysis, vol. XII, 2, 2020, p. 217 - 231 https://doi.org/10.37043/JURA.2020.12.2.6 THE EFFECT OF INFRASTRUCTURAL INTEGRATION OF REGIONAL TRANSPORT ON TOURISM PROMOTION: THE CASE OF GUILAN PROVINCE, IRAN Mohammad MALEKI1, Saber MOHAMMADPOUR1, Seyed Reza AZADEH2 1University of Guilan, Rasht, Iran, 2University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran Abstract: This article examines the impacts of infrastructural integration of regional transport (IIRT) on tourism and the idea of using IIRT to promote tourism. The process of striving for IIRT requires a number of factors to be operationalized, among which the most common are: multimodal terminals (MMT), shared stops (SST), highway construction and improvement (HCI), and railway construction and improvement (RCI). The aim of this article is to evaluate the impacts of IIRT factors on the factors which lead towards the promotion of tourism. The results showed that Guilan province, despite of profiting with all four major transportation modes, has a lack of infrastructural integration among all transportation modes. Furthermore, it was concluded that IIRT can have a significant effect on the promotion of tourism and it can be used as an approach to promote the tourism industry of Guilan province with using several strategies in this regard. Key Words: infrastructural integration, regional transport, tourism promotion, Guilan province. Introduction Tourism is considered as one of the most important industries and its promotion plays a central role in development (Najdawi 2009, Wang and Chen 2015, Zhang et al. 2015). According to some estimates, tourism accounts for between six and seven percent of the global gross domestic product and for 1 in 11 jobs, making it the world’s largest industry.

  • ID 485 Developing a Risk Covering Based Model for Locating Rescue
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Pilsen, Czech Republic, July 23-26, 2019 Developing a risk covering based model for locating rescue and relief centers in hazardous materials transportation (An empirical study: Guilan province of Iran) Hamideh Baghaei Daemi M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering, MehrAstan University, Guilan, Iran [email protected] Abbas Mahmoudabadi Director, Master Program in Industrial Engineering, MehrAstan University, Guilan, Iran [email protected] Sedigheh Rezvani Chomachar M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering, MehrAstan University, Guilan, Iran [email protected] Abstract Although hazardous materials (Hazmat) transportation plays an important role in the economy, it has always raised authorities’ concerns on the potential risks to humans and the environment. A Hazmat accident may impact serious damage to the people within the scope of the incident so in the areas where special relief centers do not exist, Hazmat accidents may be more severe. In the present research work, a mathematical model for locating the relief and rescue centers has been developed in which the network risk coverage is maximized. A procedure has been developed to determine the optimum sites for constructing special relief and rescue centers based on Hazmat transport risk. In order to validate the proposed model, an experimental intercity road network including 46 nodes and 126 two-way edges (252 edges) in the Iranian northern province of Guilan has been selected as the case study. The results revealed that solving locating problems in terms of risk coverage and distance coverage have different results on location, so local or national authorities who are dealing with Hazmat transport planning should be aware on attributes considered for locating rescue and relief centers.
