The 16th Arab Conference on the Peaceful Uses of Atomic Energy kicked off Sunday in Amman, Jordan, with the participation of approximately 150 scientists and researchers from across the Arab world. Secretary-General of the Arab League Ahmed Aboul Gheit highlighted the region’s growing energy needs, noting that the Middle East and North Africa require a 70% increase in electricity capacity by 2050 to meet rising demand. He emphasized that nuclear energy offers a vital and efficient solution to these challenges, pointing out that a single nuclear power plant can provide energy to an unlimited number of homes at an economical cost with minimal environmental impact, SPA reported. The five-day conference will address key topics such as advanced reactor technologies, innovative nuclear applications in health and environmental management, and the role of nuclear advancements in driving social and economic development. Participants will also explore strategies for meeting the increasing demand for clean energy, including developments in nuclear fusion.

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” New York City Councilman Robert Holden (D) stated that he loves that incoming Border Czar Tom Homan vowed to hold sanctuary jurisdictions accountable for “shielding criminals and terrorists” because “We need to actually get rid of and deport these illegal aliens who are committing crime.” Holden said, “I love Tom Homan, the new Border Czar, who came, last week on Fox and said, we’re going to hold these mayors and governors accountable, certainly, he said don’t cross that line. Because they are violating, with these sanctuary city laws, by shielding — they are violating, it’s a felony to shield these criminals, these illegal immigrants. So, we need to start really doing that. We need to actually get rid of and deport these illegal aliens who are committing crime.” He added that “the governors — Democratic governors and the mayors of these sanctuary cities are shielding criminals and terrorists, Brian.” Holden further stated that he’s looking to President-Elect Donald Trump, who “could say, you know what, if you’re not going — if you’re going to violate the laws, the federal laws, statutes that we have on the books, it’s a felony to shield and harbor illegal aliens who have committed crimes. ... So, the President, actually, could say to the governor and to the mayor, cooperate with us, or we’re going to charge you with felonies.” Follow Ian Hanchett on Twitter @IanHanchettAdvocates ask Biden to pardon refugees from the Vietnam War

Luigi Mangione’s arrest thrust his family into the spotlight. Who are the Mangiones of Baltimore?Nick Kern came off the bench for 20 points and 13 rebounds as Penn State remained unbeaten with an 85-66 thumping of Fordham in a semifinal of the Sunshine Slam on Monday in Daytona Beach, Fla. The Nittany Lions (6-0), who will play either San Francisco or Clemson for the tournament title on Tuesday, put four other players in double figures. Zach Hicks scored 16 points, while Puff Johnson added 15. Ace Baldwin and Yanic Konan Niederhauser each chipped in 12 points. Penn State sank nearly 53 percent of its field goal attempts and earned a 38-30 advantage on the boards, more than enough to offset missing 12 of its 32 foul shots. Four players reached double figures for the Rams (3-4), led by 15 points apiece from Jackie Johnson III and reserve Joshua Rivera. Romad Dean and Jahmere Tripp each added 13. Fordham was as close as 56-49 after Tripp made a layup with 14:25 left in the game. But the Nittany Lions responded with a 16-1 run, capped with a layup by Kern for a 22-point lead at the 9:33 mark, and they never looked back. The main storyline prior to tipoff was whether Penn State could continue its torrid early start that saw it come into the day leading Division I in steals and ranked second in scoring at 98.2 points per game. The Nittany Lions certainly played to their billing for most of the first half, establishing a 21-8 lead at the 10:08 mark via Hicks' three-point play. Fordham predictably struggled early with the pressure defense, committing four turnovers in the first four minutes. But the Rams got their bearings over the last 10 minutes and made some shots. They got as close as four on two occasions late in the half before Penn State pushed the lead to 42-34 at the half. The officials were busy in the half, calling 23 fouls and administering 27 free throws. --Field Level Media

A group of seven conservative and free market New England think tanks warns in a newly released report that green energy policies, combined with public benefit charges in Connecticut, could lead to increased electricity costs and rolling blackouts in the region. The report prepared by Always On Energy Research describes renewable energy mandates and climate goals in most New England states as failed policy and estimates that compliance will cost the six-state region’s residents more than $815 billion through 2050. The Yankee Institute for Public Policy in Connecticut was one of the groups that commissioned the report released last month. “Connecticut already endures one of the highest electricity rates in the nation,” said Andy Fowler, communications director for the Yankee Institute. “Just this past summer, our state’s residents and businesses experienced a large spike in rates due to an increase in the public benefits charge, which passes along to consumers the cost of government mandates imposed on power companies for a variety of state energy policies including green renewable energy.” Environmental advocates pushed back on the report. The Acadia Center, a climate and clean energy advocacy group based in the Northeast, said the report is inaccurate, misleading, and presents a deeply flawed analysis and distorted view of the region’s future energy outlook. The study makes five policy recommendations: Reconsider emission reductions goals in the context of affordability and reliability of electricity. Lift state moratoriums on building new nuclear power plants. Allow nuclear energy to compete against renewable energy technologies to meet state mandates to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Detail the cost of state mandates for procurement contracts for certain types of energy. Require state pension funds publicly report investment fees to gauge the costs and benefits environmental, social and governance investment policies.

A little more than a month has passed since Philly's Portal art installation debuted at LOVE Park, connecting visitors via livestream to identical sculptures in Ireland, Poland and Lithuania. The Portal would never have come to Philly without the backing of Joe Callahan, a Drexel University graduate on the board of the global Portals Network. Callahan is the founder of spatial computing company Ciright Systems, which makes virtual reality models for industrial training. His company also owns Sansar, a virtual reality network where creators build visualizations of various environments. MORE : Kylie Kelce to host weekly podcast featuring interviews with 'fascinating people' "It's a creative community where people can make games, clothing and objects inside our network," Callahan said. To promote the Portal in Philly, Callahan developed an online game where his character – wearing an Eagles jersey – explores a virtual LOVE Park. Callahan's avatar can walk through the park's spray ground, do silly dances, and play beer pong and corn hole. It takes a little bit of practice to get the mechanics down, but it's a fun way to interact with LOVE Park. It's also possible to walk through the Portal and virtually travel to Dublin, Ireland, and see the area surrounding that city's video sculpture. "The whole purpose of gamifying it is really to put Philadelphia in a global showpiece for people to see how great it is, without negativity," Callahan said during an interview Monday. "I'm so proud of being from Philadelphia. I call it the forgotten city. People have forgotten how many firsts came out of Philly – the first computer with the ENIAC, the first hospital, the first public school system, the first library." Sansar hosts more than 5,000 virtual reality worlds that are open to the public, and there are more 400,000 users in the company's global network. Its most popular worlds depict the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C., and the moon. Sansar's history traces back to San Francisco's Linden Labs, the company that created the popular virtual-reality game "Second Life." Linden sold off Sansar, and it had other owners before Callahan took control. The worlds on Sansar are best explored using an Oculus VR headset, but they also can be viewed on a Windows desktop computer. (The LOVE Park demo is accessible on Mac OS because of a technical patch, Callahan said, but the company is working on making its worlds more broadly available for Mac users). The Portal sculpture that's now in Philly formerly was installed in New York City. When the decision was made to move it, Callahan got in touch with Michael Newmuis, the director of Philly's 2026 semiquincentennial celebration, to discuss bringing it to LOVE Park. "I said I can get it to Philly. I can make the donation. All I need is the support for programming and activations that give us the ability to highlight Philadelphia," Callahan said. "It was probably the most efficient thing that ever happened in Philadelphia." For now, the Portal is still in the early stages of event programming. Last week, before the Eagles played the Washington Commanders on "Thursday Night Football," the Portal held a live pre-game show with former player Brian Mitchell. It was streamed to the portals in Vilnius, Lithuania, and and Lublin, Poland. "It was really just a test to see how it would come off, and we were really surprised with the quality of the livestream and the interaction with the people who showed up," Callahan said. "Now we know we have a platform to do live streaming at the Portal." Callahan has been pleased with Philly's engagement with the Portal so far. The sculpture is temporarily located next to the visitor center at LOVE Park, at 16th Street and John F. Kennedy Boulevard, to make room for the annual Christmas Village. It will be moved back to its original location in the park after the holidays, and Callahan said the Portal may ultimately find a permanent home at Dilworth Park. Callahan said the Portals Network will be developing more upcoming events to foster connections between host cities, and Brazil and Ethiopia are expected to get portals that will be linked to Philadelphia.

NIIGATE, Japan — The Indian-born head of one of Japan's most famous snack brands has warned that the country must change its mindset and admit more immigrants to get the economy back to the glory of its boom years. Politicians have struggled for years to recover from the so-called lost decades as a range of differing programs have failed to kickstart growth, including an ultra-loose monetary policy and trillions of dollars in stimulus measures.
