Ice cider is more a sweet wine than a cider, with an intense apple flavour and sweetness, and acidity to balance the flavours. It originates from Canada, where specifications includes a pre-fermentation sugar content of not less than 30 °Brix, and a finished product with a residual sugar content of not less than 130 g/l, containing 7-13 % alcohol. This project aims to investigate and document some of the aspects of ice cider production process for Swedish conditions.

    STATE OF MAINE OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR 1 STATE HOUSE STATION AUGUSTA, MAINE Janet T. Mills 04333-0001 GOVERNOR December 16, 2019 Secretary Michael R. Pompeo Unites States Department of State 2201 C Street NW Washington, D.C. 20520 Dear Secretary Pompeo, In response to President Trump's "Executive Order on Enhancing State and Local Involvement in Refugee Resettlement" issued on September 26, 2019, I am writing to affirm the State of Maine's support for refugee resettlement in our state. For more than forty years, and under the leadership of seven Democratic, Republican and Independent governors, Maine has participated in the federal refugee resettlement program. Over the course of those decades we have welcomed nearly 10,000 people from more than 30 countries - people who have resettled in Maine with the hope of finding peace, safety and work for themselves and their families. Maine has a workforce shortage, projected to grow worse over the next decade, creating serious challenges for businesses seeking to hire qualified workers in every industry and in every sector of our economy. Our state welcomes refugees who have skills, education and ability, a proven work ethic and tremendous drive. It is the right thing to do, and it is critical to the strength of our economy and our future success as a state. For the reasons I list above, the State of Maine fully consents to resettle refugees through the United States Refugee Admissions Program. Sincerely, Governor cc: Carol T. O'Connell, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration, U.S. Department of State Catholic Charites Maine Refugee and Immigration Services PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER PHONE: (207) 287-3531 (VOICE) TTY USE RS CA LL 7 11 FAX: (207) 287 - 1034 www.maine.gov .

    DocuSign Envelope ID: ABBEECC7-764F-47AC-9994-6951B30D1513 September 8, 2020 Chairman James Lankford Senate Select Committee on Ethics 220 Hart Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Chairman Lankford, The American Democracy Legal Fund respectfully requests an investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee into allegations of corruption on the part of United States Senator Susan Collins. The allegations stem from a recent story in HuffPost detailing a clear pattern of unethical and possibly illegal behavior by Senator Collins of using her official taxpayer funded office to financially benefit her husband and, subsequently, herself. Upon further review by our organization, we have found the following: In 2012, Senator Collins married Thomas Daffron. According to published reports, they began dating roughly two years prior, and in 2010 Mr. Daffron and Senator Collins bought a rowhouse in Washington, D.C. together. Mr. Daffron was a longtime advisor and consultant to Senator Collins before their marriage. Mr. Daffron hired Senator Collins as an intern in Sen. Bill Cohen’s office in 1974. Mr. Daffron mentored Senator Collins in her early career in D.C. before consulting on her 1996, 2002, and 2008 U.S. Senate campaigns. Thomas Daffron served as the COO for Jefferson Consulting from 2006-2016. Jefferson Consulting received $54.95 million in government contracts and $3.5 million in lobbying revenue between 2006-2016, for a total of $58,428,029.35. Through her membership on the Senate Appropriations Committee, Senator Collins had congressional oversight over agencies that granted Jefferson Consulting $10 million in government contracts. Jefferson Consulting Received $6 million from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
