US ambassador thanks Russia for Sandy relief aid

US ambassador thanks Russia for Sandy relief aid

US Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul has thanked Moscow for the relief aid it is planning to send to storm-hit New York.

“Thank you for help, Russia,” he tweeted on Monday.

Russia’s emergency agency is preparing to fly two planes loaded with humanitarian aid to New York, devastated by hurricane Sandy. Two Il-76 jets will each carry 27 tones of blankets and essentials.

  • Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has denied media reports that the Iranian authorities sent 4,000 troops from Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps to assist government forces in Syria.

  • Tens of thousands of people last night took to the streets of major cities in Turkey in anti-government protests. Despite a mass turnout, there were no clashes with the police or major disturbances. There is a conspicuous absence of police and riot equipment in the cities, although the day before yesterday in the capital there were special task force units with water cannons at almost every intersection.

  • Future business owners of medicinal marijuana dispensaries in Massachusetts might have hefty fees to pay. Massachusetts is set on charging a 31,500 dollar non-refundable application fee, for business owners who wish to open up. What’s more, businesses will need to pay out a 50 thousand dollar operating fee every year and 500 dollars per employee.

  • US teachers, who are new to the field, are receiving low marks in performance according to the National Council on Teacher Quality’s report. They found they get little to no classroom experience before running a class of students, thus bringing on feeling of anxiousness.

     

  • New Yorkers may soon be obliged to separate their food scraps – like stale bread, chicken bones and potato peels – for further composting, as City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg’s administration is set on a new program intended to make the Big Apple greener, not to mention huge cost savings.
