Weta Karola Nawrockiego. Jest sondaż
W sondażu United Surveys by IBRiS przeprowadzonym dla Wirtualnej Polski zapytano badanych, jak należy oceniać weta prezydenta Karola Nawrockiego do ustaw uchwalanych przez Sejm. Według 50 proc. uczestników sondażu weta wynikają z “chęci realizacji interesów politycznych własnego środowiska”. 46,7 proc. uważa, że to “troska o jakość prawa i interes obywateli”. Zdania nie miało 3,3 proc. badanych. Jeśli chodzi o samych wyborców obecnej koalicji rządzącej, aż 85 proc. uważa, że Karol Nawrocki chce wetami realizować swoje interesy polityczne. Z kolei 85 proc. wyborców PiS-u i Konfederacji jest zdania, że decyzje prezydenta wynikają z troski i chęci zadbania o interesy Polaków.
REKLAMA
“Każda ustawa jest szczegółowo analizowana”
Prezydent Karol Nawrocki od początku swojego urzędowania zawetował 17 ustaw, a podpisał ok. 100. W ostatnich tygodniach polityk zdecydował się nie podpisywać ustaw m.in. o rynku kryptowalut oraz zakazującej trzymania psów na łańcuchach. – Mam konstytucyjny obowiązek podejmowania decyzji wobec każdej ustawy uchwalonej przez parlament. Podejmuję je z pełnym poczuciem odpowiedzialności wobec wszystkich Polaków – mówił Karol Nawrocki pod koniec listopada. – Każda ustawa, która trafia na moje biurko, jest szczegółowo analizowana przez doświadczonych prawników i ekspertów, moich współpracowników. Śledzą oni przebieg prac nad projektami oraz opinie i uwagi płynące od środowisk, których dane regulacje dotyczą. W wielu przypadkach sam spotykam się z przedstawicielami grup społecznych, aby wysłuchać ich stanowiska – dodał.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — The law firm hired by the University of Michigan to investigate former football coach Sherrone Moore’s relationship with a staffer will continue its probe of the program and is prepared to expand its inquiry throughout the athletic department, according to two people famil.
The law firm hired by the University of Michigan to investigate former football coach Sherrone Moore’s relationship with a staffer will continue its probe of the program and is prepared to expand its inquiry throughout the athletic department, according to two people familiar with the situation.
The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the details.
Other WRAL Top Stories
Michigan fired Moore on Wednesday, when the school said an investigation uncovered his inappropriate relationship with a staffer. He is married with three daughters.
The 39-year-old Moore was charged with three crimes after prosecutors said on Friday he “barged his way” into the apartment of a woman he’d been having an affair with and threatened to kill himself.
Athletic director Warde Manuel told the school’s board during the season that he asked Moore and the woman if they were in a relationship and both denied it, according to the people familiar with the situation. They said Manuel told the board that he reviewed hundreds of text messages and emails between Moore and the woman on their school-issued cellphones and computers and did not discover anything inappropriate.
The school later hired a law firm to investigate the matter further and it began working on campus on Monday, when the woman did not show up to work, according to the two people. They said her attorney met with the firm on Tuesday and she provided evidence of her relationship with Moore on Wednesday, when Manuel fired Moore without human resources or campus police present.
Well before Manuel’s inquiry and the law firm’s investigation, a social media influencer outside the state contacted the school to express concerns about Moore’s behavior, two people familiar with the situation said.
Moore faces charges including felony home invasion and stalking.
He and the woman had been having an affair “for a number of years” before she ended the relationship Monday, said Kati Rezmierski, a Washtenaw County prosecutor. Moore repeatedly called the woman and texted her, but she refused to respond, Rezmierski said.
Shortly after losing his job, Moore stormed into the woman’s apartment, “then proceeded to a kitchen drawer, grabbed several butter knives and a pair of kitchen scissors. And began to threaten his own life,” Rezmierski said.
The prosecutor quoted Moore as telling the woman: “I’m going to kill myself. I’m going to make you watch. My blood is on your hands. You’ve ruined my life.”
A plea of not guilty was entered on Moore’s behalf and he was released from jail after meeting the $25,000 bond. Moore said very little in court besides acknowledging that he must have no contact with the woman, among other conditions.
Defense attorney Joe Simon said Moore would “absolutely comply” with the judge’s order for an additional evaluation. Moore must wear a GPS tracking device, stay in Michigan and abstain from alcohol. The next court hearing was set for Jan. 22.
Moore signed a five-year contract with a base annual salary of $5.5 million last year. According to the terms of his deal, the university will not have to buy out the remaining years of his contract because he was fired for cause.
No. 18 Michigan is set to play No. 14 Texas on Dec. 31 in the Citrus Bowl. Biff Poggi, who filled in for Moore when he was suspended earlier this season in relation to a Jim Harbaugh-era sign-stealing scandal, will serve as interim coach.
The school is searching for a coach and hopes to make a hire this month to help it retain recruits and give players enough confidence in the program to stay out of the transfer portal next month.

The easiest way to carry a second helmet on a Harley-Davidson is to put the helmet into the luggage carrier of a touring-style bike, where it’s safe.
Opinions about wearing a helmet while riding a motorcycle vary. Some consider them one of the essentials bikers shouldn’t leave home without, others have no use for them, and some use them on occasion (every rider should be wearing a helmet). Whatever group you fall into, there are times when bikers may find themselves needing to carry a second helmet, or at least an unworn helmet, on their motorcycle. Harley-Davidson motorcycles are as varied as the different types of helmets available to bikers. The style of your Harley and the equipment it possesses make a difference in the options available to carry a second helmet.
The easiest way to carry a second helmet on a Harley-Davidson is to put the helmet into the luggage carrier of a touring-style bike. A helmet locked inside a pannier or trunk is hidden from view and the elements, safe from vandals, would-be thieves, passing rain showers, and harmful UV rays. If your Harley-Davidson already has luggage provisions, it’s the easiest method of carrying a spare helmet. Other safe methods require the use of additional equipment, extra steps, and could make the passenger seat unavailable. However, there are some easy ways to safely carry a second helmet on your non-touring equipped Harley-Davidson.Safe methods for carrying a second helmet
A safe method for carrying a second helmet while riding a Harley-Davidson that’s not equipped with panniers or a top box is to strap it down. While an elastic cargo net is a great option, velcro straps, bungee cords, or even your belt can work. The best places to strap down a spare helmet are the rear seat, cargo rack, or backrest, depending on what’s available. The key is to make sure it’s secure. You don’t want it shifting around or falling off while you’re on the road. It also needs to be out of the rider’s way. A helmet stowed in the wrong spot can impede the rider’s ability to safely operate the motorcycle.
Backpacks are another common method, although they may not fit with the aesthetic of riding a Harley for some. Backpacks can also be a difficult motorcycle accessory to ride with, especially with a helmet stuffed inside. A large backpack, such as the 35-liter NiceCNC Bag available on Amazon for $59.99, allows carrying a helmet and other gear while on the move.
While wearing the backpack holding a helmet may not be comfortable during your ride, it’s possible to strap it to the seat while riding and still take it with you when you leave the bike. If the second helmet is for a passenger you’re picking up, have them wear the backpack while riding two-up.The worst ways to carry a second helmet on your Harley-Davidson
If you’ve bought one of the best full-face helmets you can find, you’ll want to take care of it. While locking it to your Harley-Davidson with a genuine Harley-Davidson Helmet Lock is okay when you’re parked, you wouldn’t want to ride with it secured using only the lock. A helmet secured through the D-rings at the end of the chin strap may be somewhat safe from thieves, but that arrangement could allow the helmet to flop around while riding. This could not only damage the helmet, but it could also interfere with the rider’s ability to safely control the motorcycle.
Likewise, securing a second helmet to the front of your Harley-Davidson is also a bad idea. If the helmet were to slip during travel, it could interfere with the motorcycle’s controls, limit steering input, or fall to the roadway, where it would be a hazard. Maybe the worst way to carry a second helmet is the elbow carry. It seems simple enough to slip an arm through the face opening of a full-face helmet, carrying it while keeping both hands free to operate a motorcycle. However, a helmet carried this way is unstable at highway speeds and can easily break an arm in the simplest of falls.
Peter Greene’s manager recalled his final phone call with the actor leading up to his tragic death at the age of 60.
Peter Greene’s manager, Gregg Edwards, revealed his final phone call with the actor in the days leading up to his tragic death.
Edwards recalled speaking with the “Pulp Fiction” star on the phone Wednesday — two days before his body was found in his New York City home — telling The Post on Saturday, “He sounded okay.”
“It was just a totally normal conversation,” he added, explaining Greene shared his nerves about undergoing scheduled surgery to remove a benign tumor near his lung.
“He was a little nervous about the operation going in, but he said it wasn’t super serious,” Edwards added, explaining that the surgery was scheduled for Friday, the day Greene’s body was discovered.
Edwards explained that he also has a planned surgery and that the “Bounty Hunter” star had wished him well.
“We’re good friends. I love the guy… We were friends for over a decade,” he said.
Edwards stated that the phone call was his last with Greene.
Edwards stated that Greene’s death came as a shock, as the actor was set to film the forthcoming movie “Mascots” alongside actor Mickey Rourke.
A neighbor requested a wellness check after hearing nonstop Christmas music blasting from the “Mask” star’s Lower East Side home, according to The Post.
When a locksmith opened Greene’s door around 3:25 p.m. on Friday, he was found unresponsive and later pronounced dead at the age of 60.
Investigators suspect no foul play.
An autopsy to determine the “Bluestreak” star’s cause of death is pending.
Greene’s neighbor told the New York Daily News that his body was reportedly found face down and there was “blood everywhere.”
A handwritten note was also reportedly found at the scene.
The alleged note referenced the 1970s Irish-American gang and read, “I’m still a Westie.”
Greene is survived by his son, Ryder, 16.

Cambodian officials closed all border crossings from Thailand as fighting continues between the two nations despite a claimed cease-fire.
Dec. 13 Cambodian officials closed all border crossings from Thailand as fighting continues between the two nations despite a claimed cease-fire.
The Cambodian Defense Ministry said Thai forces had not stopped bombing targets in Cambodia on Saturday, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The border crossings with Thailand will remain closed until further notice, ministry officials said.
President Donald Trump on Friday night announced a cease-fire agreement had been reached between Thai and Cambodian officials after he spoke with them.
They agreed to “cease shooting effective this evening” and resume an agreement signed in October, Trump said in a social media post, adding that “both countries are ready for peace”, as reported by the BBC.
Leaders from the respective nations did not say they reached a cease-fire, though.
“Thailand will continue to perform military actions until we feel no more harm and threats to our land and people”, Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnivirakul said, as reported by The New York Times.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet confirmed speaking with Trump regarding a cease-fire but did not say an agreement had been reached.
Officials in both nations reported that bombing and artillery fire continued on Saturday, and Thai officials told media that four of the nation’s soldiers had been killed.
Thai officials said a rocket attack launched from Cambodia injured several civilians, while the four military deaths raised the total since Monday to 15, along with 270 wounded and six civilians injured.
Cambodian officials have not updated that nation’s casualty reports for Saturday after reporting Thai fighter-bombers struck hotels and a bridge. They said 11 civilians had been killed and 59 injured as of Friday.
The fighting forced the evacuation of an estimated 700,000 civilians on both sides of the Thai-Cambodia border, which extends about 500 miles from Laos in the East to the Gulf of Thailand in the west.
Володимир Зеленський оголосив про набуття чинності санкцій України проти майже 700 морських суден, які Росія використовує для експорту нафти та фінансування війни. Новини Володимир Зеленський, новини.
Президент Володимир Зеленський повідомив, що у суботу, 13 грудня, набули чинності санкції України проти ще майже 700 морських суден. Росіяни використовують їх для фінансування війни.
Про це глава держави повідомив у Telegram.Санкції України проти морських суден
Зеленський зазначив, що санкції оголошено проти суден, які є значною частиною російського флоту, що перевозить нафту та інші енергоресурси. За його словами, це найбільший пакет обмежень саме проти танкерів та інших суден, які служать агресії. У ньому також судна, які ходять не лише під прапором Росії, але й інших держав. Зокрема, йдеться про понад 50 юрисдикцій.
Зеленський наголосив, що Україна буде працювати, аби кожне із цих суден, кожна компанія-судновласник та інфраструктура російського експорту нафти й інших енергоресурсів були заблоковані також партнерами.
“Ми підтримуємо концепцію повної заборони надання морських послуг суднам, які задіяні в експорті російських енергоносіїв. Тиск на Росію та дипломатія заради закінчення війни мають йти пліч-о-пліч, щоб був необхідний результат. Росія повинна припинити війну, яку сама почала та затягує. Дякую всім, хто з Україною!” — додав глава держави.
