Daylight Savings - Global Scenes

Greece Changes to Daylight Savings Time

Time changes in Greece in the early hours of Sunday. 3 a.m. clocks will turn to 4 a.m. as Daylight Savings Time goes into effect.
Most countries in Europe spring forward 1 hour at 01:00 UTC. Local time for the change is different in each time zone.
Each year, Daylight Savings Time goes into effect on the last Sunday of March, to turn back again on the last Sunday of October.
There is discussion in the European Union to abolish DST. In February, the European Parliament voted to re-evaluate DST in Europe urging the EU Commission to consider putting an end to adjusting the clocks back and forward 1 hour.
The majority of European Parliament Members voted for the abolition of DST and it is now up to the European Commission to decide whether Europeans will continue springing the clock one hour forward and backward each year.

Adele - Global Scenes

Adele Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to get married? Whoa . . . What are you on about? Sorry, I couldn’t resist. But you won’t believe this. Adele’s been ordained. Adele as in Adele? Yep, Adele as in Adele. She can now marry people. Crikey. Career change, or just not enough to do? Don’t these celebrities have albums to promote or reality television gigs to be getting on with? Well, she has only married one couple as far as I know. The whole ordination thing was for Alan Carr, the comedian, and his groom, Paul Drayton. She was planning their wedding ceremony (in her garden in Los Angeles, darling) and was going to sing too, so decided to do everything. Everything?                                                                           Read more... ...

Alberta budget 2018 - Alberta budget 2018: Post-secondary students applaud continued tuition freeze

Alberta budget 2018: Post-secondary students applaud continued tuition freeze Thursday’s budget contained few surprises for universities, colleges and post-secondary students since the province delivered on its promise to freeze tuition in Alberta for a fourth consecutive year. Provincial government coffers will soften the blow of lost revenue for universities and colleges by handing over $17 million to backfill the cost of the freeze. They’ll also continue with a promised two per cent funding increase to post-secondary institutions. “Affordability of post-secondary education is a key priority for us,” Advanced Education Minister Marlin Schmidt told reporters Thursday. A tuition freeze is a double-edged sword, United Conservative Party whip Ric McIver said Thursday — a relief for students, and a burden for post-secondary institutions.                                        ...
