Untangling the Full Lifecycle of Digital Signage
Digital signage gives brands and retailers a way to represent themselves and engage with customers in public, digital form. But keeping digital signage up and running across multiple locations—anywhere from 5 to 5,000 sites—can be an IT nightmare. And technicians can't exactly run from store to store every time there is a problem to fix. Retailers need to make sure they have all the moving pieces in place—and a way to keep it all up and running, 24x7x365. Download this white paper to learn more.

The best moments and tweets from The Beatles' 'Get Back' documentary, including Paul McCartney's magic moment
A simple review: The Beatles: Get Back is worth the eight hours of your time (not in a row! The Peter Jackson-directed documentary takes the hours and hours of footage from what would ultimately turn into Let It Be and focuses day by day on the band coming up with songs to perform at a concert and, eventually, record on an album. It leads up to — SPOILER ALERT, I guess? — the now-famous concert of the roof of Apple Corps’ office building in the middle of London. That said, let’s run through some of the most notable moments, some jokes and tweets about it:

Rushed Elections in Libya Won’t Bring Peace
For all the heady talk of newfound momentum amid great expectations for the December elections, the International Conference on Libya held in Paris on Nov. 12 was a major disappointment. For all the heady talk of newfound momentum amid great expectations for the December elections, the International Conference on Libya held in Paris on Nov. 12 was a major disappointment. This law neither enjoys the approval of the parliament, nor that of the High Council of State, thus contravening the provisions of the 2015 Libyan Political Agreement. The U.N.’s rush to reach a feel-good political win is pushing Libya toward another period of armed conflict and division. Russia has ultimately succeeded in ensuring loyalists’ participation in the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum.

Gunmen attack four Libyan election centers
The Libyan High National Elections Commission (HNEC) said on Thursday that four of its election centers have been attacked by a group of gunmen. Said Al-Qasabi, head of the main operations chamber of the HNEC, said in a statement that gunmen in civilian clothes launched the attacks on Wednesday, taking away 2,312 voter cards and damaging 69 others. Interior Minister Khaled Mazen on Tuesday warned that obstructing the security plan of the elections could threaten the whole electoral process. The UN Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) on Monday condemned acts that aim to jeopardize the integrity of the elections in Libya. Libya is scheduled to hold presidential elections on December 24 and the parliamentary elections in January next year, with an aim to bring stability to the war-torn country.

Negotiations in Peril
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi doesn’t trust the USA anymore. Both parties should realize that in case the negotiations fail in Vienna, all have to pay a heavy price for it. On November 1, the Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett termed the ongoing negotiations ‘blackmail’ and urged the world ‘not to give in to the Iranian blackmail”. Israel has killed as many as the top four Iranian nuclear scientists while wounding a couple of them since 2010. Both parties should realize that in case the negotiations fail in Vienna, all have to pay a heavy price for it.

Libya’s foreign minister slams European migration policy
Where population shifts have led to proposed boundary changes, incumbents may be forced to stand in new districts. That’s the challenge facing Illinois representative Marie Newman, who won election in 2020 in the 3rd Congressional District, which has the largest concentration of Palestinian American voters. In addition to Newman and Garcia, seven other members of Congress who voted against the Iron Dome money could be affected by district changes. Tlaib, Pressley and Omar are members of the “Squad,” a group of progressive Democrats that includes New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. That could be important even though Tlaib defeated several African American candidates when she first ran and won office in the predominantly African American district in 2018.

Libya's foreign minister slams European migration policy
CAIRO (AP) — Libya’s foreign minister on Friday criticized a system of deterring migrants from reaching European shores that she argued fails to address the root of the problem and has so far only served the interest of EU states. Her comments are the latest stab at EU policies that fund forces such as the Libyan coast guard, which intercepts migrant boats and brings them back onshore and detains them. Foreign Minister Najla Mangoush spoke via video call at the Mediterranean dialogues, a conference hosted by the Italian government, in a session titled “Dealing with Migration." The EU has sent 455 million euros to Libya since 2015, largely channeled through U.N. agencies and aimed at beefing up Libya’s coast guard, reinforcing its southern border and improving conditions for migrants. Libya has been at war and split for years between rival administrations in the east and west, each backed by armed groups and foreign governments.

Judge leaves lawsuits against Libyan general Hifter on pause
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — A federal judge in Virginia on Friday ruled that war-crimes lawsuits against a Libyan military commander who used to live in the U.S. must stay on hold for now to avoid interfering with upcoming presidential elections there. At a hearing in Alexandria, U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema rejected a request to revive the lawsuits against Khalifa Hifter, who has controlled large swaths of the nation during a yearslong civil war. Brinkema last month paused a trio of civil lawsuits against Hifter, just as he was scheduled to be deposed in them. Hifter has declared himself a candidate for president in elections later this month, and Brinkema said she was concerned that the lawsuits were being used to further political agendas rather than protect victims of torture. The lawsuits allege that Hifter is responsible for killings and torture of political opponents.

Court says Gaddafi's son can contest Libya's presidential election, overturning disqualification
A LIBYAN COURT has overturned a decision by the country’s top electoral body that disqualified the son of the late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi from running in upcoming presidential elections. A court in the southern province of Sabha ruled in Seif al-Islam Gaddafi’s favour, Libyan media outlets reported. He is also wanted by the International Criminal Court on charges of crimes against humanity related to the uprising.

The commission said they stole or destroyed over 2,000 voting cards, that eligible voters are expected to carry on the election day.

The UAE contracts were signed as French President Emmanuel Macron visited the country on the first stop of a two-day visit to the Persian Gulf. France and Gulf countries have long been concerned by Iran’s nuclear ambitions and influence across the region, particularly in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. France has particularly deep ties to the UAE, a federation of seven sheikdoms on the Arabian Peninsula. French defense officials were jubilant. “But if the West walks away with nothing, the Gulf countries are beginning to understand that their security will not improve as a result.”___Surk reported from Nice, France.
