The email alert being sent out by Google to all Google Play Music Users states, “On February 24, 2021, we will delete all of your Google Play Music data. This includes your music library with any uploads, purchases and anything you’ve added from Google Play Music. After this date, there will be no way to recover it.” The tech giant had originally planned to give users time until the end of 2020 to either transfer their data to YouTube Music using the built-in tool or download an offline copy via Google Takeout....

It seems as though the move is in response to leaked images of the long-awaited sequel to the Google Home speaker that is still on sale but was launched in 2016. Google appears to have sent the image and video to several US publications. In sharing official content, Google could be hoping to control the narrative around its next-gen speaker, which looks a lot different to the Google Home but will likely function in practically the same way....

Cause of Google Sky Map Not Working Google Sky Map was created in 2007 but has received many updates since then.

Republicans are also citing the lack of GOP support as evidence that Biden’s pledges of unity and bipartisanship are hollow, hoping the message will resonate with voters concerned about Democratic overreach and progressive policies ahead of the 2022 midterm elections. But polls show that Americans of all parties broadly support the relief bill, making the GOP strategy a risky one. Some Republicans have already come under fire for lauding the benefits of coronavirus relief measures while still pushing back on Biden’s efforts, showing that even in opposition some lawmakers are well aware of how popular the stimulus package is....

Western states, including Colorado, Montana and Oregon, gained residents in the decade since the last census, and each gained congressional seats. Florida, a perennial swing state, and North Carolina each gained one seat, while Texas was the biggest winner with two. California is losing a congressional seat for the first time—a result of dwindling migration in the nation’s most populous state. New York and Ohio lost seats, as well as Illinois, Michigan, Pennsylvania and West Virginia....

These often far-fetched impeachment attempts are nothing new. The Republican Party has already launched more impeachment resolutions against Biden or his administration since January 3, 2021, than the Democrats did during former President Donald Trump’s entire term in office. House Republicans have introduced 14 impeachment resolutions against Biden or his administration as of October—all of which have been non-starters. Eric J. Segall, professor of law at Georgia State University College of Law said that it’s “very likely” that the GOP will continue to launch further unmerited impeachment attempts against Biden and others as part of “tit for tat” revenge for Trump, who became the first president to be impeached by the House twice before being cleared both times in the Senate....

In Monday’s article, Politico claims that “people with direct knowledge of the inquiry” relayed that the committee “found no evidence” of Ukraine engaging in an effort to help Clinton win the election. Conspiratorial allegations that Ukraine, rather than Russia, meddled in the election were brought up several times during the recent public hearings in the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump. Some have claimed that the allegations are part of a Russian disinformation campaign, designed to deflect attention from Russian meddling in the election....

That was the message from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Friday to Senate Republicans for how Congress can overcome its impasse on police reform legislation. “We always have a responsibility to reach across the aisle. But instead of a handshake, you get a slap in the face, then you say you better go back to the drawing board,’” the California Democrat told reporters. “And that’s what they better do.”...

In October, worker’s advocacy groups in North Carolina asked the NCDOL to institute more stringent safety measures against the virus. In September, Governor Roy Cooper announced an executive order that would put additional safety measures in place for North Carolina agricultural workers. After labor officials claimed they would not be able to enforce the new regulations, Cooper’s office chose not to enact the order. In her November letter, Berry said that COVID-19 could not be proven to be a workplace hazard....

“I think the threats are basically grandstanding, especially for an audience of one, meaning the former president. We all know that Kevin McCarthy basically does what the former president wants him to do—in this case, it’s go after Big Tech like Donald Trump did when he was president,” the strategist, Susan Del Percio, said on MSNBC Sunday. “This is all about operating from fear,” she said later in the interview....

Gretzky was 2 years old in 1963 when Howe surpassed Maurice “Rocket” Richard’s record of 544 goals. That Howe’s name stood atop the NHL goal-scoring charts for more than 30 years makes Gretzky’s accomplishment even more amazing. “He scored 85 more points one year than the next guy,” Howe says. “I scored 85 one year and set a record.” MR. HOCKEY: Iconic images | Unmatched legacy | Howe dies at 88...

The 86-year-old hockey legend suffered a massive stroke that left him barely responsive. MORE: Perrault out with upper body injury | Soderberg won’t face fine | Carcillo’s cheap shot It wasn’t until Dr. Maynard Howe (no relation to Gordie) of Stemedica Cell Technologies in San Diego contacted the Howe family in early December that things turned around. After receiving a stem cell injection in his spine in Mexico as part of a clinical trial, his condition began to improve as early as eight hours afterward, according to his son Murray....

He admits that. He’s been that way his whole career, getting emotional after big victories or during special moments, just letting the tears flow. He did it after he won his first Sprint Cup race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in 1994. He did it after he won the Brickyard 400 for the first time and at the NASCAR Cup banquet after he won his first championship. He got choked up after snapping long winless streaks and even after matching Dale Earnhardt with his 76th career victory....

The 27-year-old wide receiver, who made his Patriots debut on Sunday, caught two passes for 32 yards in his team’s 38-7 win over the Miami Dolphins. He said playing for New England has been an “awesome experience” so far. “I have no doubt I’m going to take advantage of this opportunity,” Gordon said after the win (via Boston.com). “I’m more than blessed, I’m extremely grateful to be put in this scenario....

For those that don’t know, Gorn is a VR game where players take on the role of a gladiator in a bloody yet cartoon-like fight to the death. The game has received quite a bit of praise since it initially released in 2017 on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, leading to Free Lives releasing the game on PSVR earlier this year. RELATED: Far Cry VR Experience Revealed Now it seems that Gorn did well enough to allow for Free Lives to bring the game to the Oculus Rift....

Up to now Google did not provide such contracts because it maintains that it does not process personal data. Since 2011 it has offered such agreements only in Germany, after demands from the German DPA. In October last year the European Union’s council of DPAs, the so-called Article 29 Working Party, asked Google to make the agreements available E.U.-wide. The issue is part of a wider ongoing investigation into Google’s privacy policies by DPAs in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and the U....

With the rumours Google Nexus 10 2 tablet around, it remains to be seen when the official release date is out. As of now, there are no signs of the release before 2013 ends. A new year release is more likely for the much awaited tablet. With holidays in full swing, it was probable that Google would have announced the tablet release before Black Friday shopping fiesta. It is safe to assume now that Google would not release the device in the coming few weeks, given that many users would have finalised on their decisions regarding what device to bring home....
