Zakia Khattabi (Arabic: ; born 15 January 1976) is a Belgian-Moroccan politician who was the co-president of the Ecolo party.

Khattabi was born in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode in Brussels to Moroccan parents. She studied at Université libre de Bruxelles. She believes in political ecology and is a feminist activist which led to her joining the Ecolo party. , she serves as federal Minister of Climate, Environment, Sustainable Development and Green Deal in the De Croo Government led by Prime Minister Alexander De Croo.

Political career and views
She became a member of the Brussels Parliament in 2009 as the local councillor for Ixelles, and then also sat in the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. She later became president of the Ecolo group at the Belgian Senate. Khattabi was elected, along with Patrick Dupriez, as co-leader of Ecolo during a party conference in Charleroi in 2015. Dupriez was replaced in 2018 by .

In a 2018 interview with Le Soir, Khattabi called for a "new model" for Brussels without separate Flemish and Francophone communities. That same year following the killing of 14 women from macho violence in Belgium that year, Khattabi called for the recognition of femicide.

Under Khattabi's co-presidency, Ecolo made large gains in Brussels in the local elections of 2018 to become the second largest party there. In the 2019 federal election Ecolo doubled its share of the vote, and gained its biggest number of seats yet, which Khattabi attributed to a rising "green wave" in Europe.

In January 2020, Khattabi failed to gain sufficient support from Belgian senators to become one of the judges at the Belgian Constitutional Court. Her candidature received the votes of only 38 of 60 senators, whereas a supermajority of two-thirds was required. The vote should have been held in November 2019 originally, but was postponed after a campaign by right-wing party N-VA and far-right Vlaams Belang against Khattabi's candidature.

Where We Go from Here: Two Years in the Resistance is a book by U.S. Senator from Vermont Bernie Sanders, published by Thomas Dunne Books on November 27, 2018.

The book chronicles the senator's actions from June 2016 to August 2018. It also elaborates on Sanders' political ideology. It is one of three books written by Sanders.

Contents
Within the book, Bernie Sanders chronicles what he and other progressives have done since 2016 while also laying out his policy agenda. He goes into detail about how he worked with the Clinton campaign to craft the "most progressive political platform in U.S. history."

After not winning the 2016 Democratic nomination, Bernie Sanders explains why he chose to campaign for Hillary Clinton, citing Donald Trump's racism and corruption as reasons.

Following the election portion of the book, Bernie Sanders explains in great detail what he has done over the course of the following two years. The book details Sanders' role in preventing the Republicans from killing the Affordable Care Act, his leadership role in the Democratic Party, his efforts to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, and his campaigning for progressive candidates in the 2018 midterm elections.

Throughout the entire book, Bernie Sanders repeats his belief that only grassroots movements of people can bring political change. He explains that many of the people who attend his rallies are young people and that a large number of 2018 candidates were first or second time candidates.

Reception
John R. Coyne Jr. of The Washington Times praised some of Sanders' stated goals, but wrote that the book is more focused on nostalgia than accomplishments. Annalisa Quinn of NPR noted that in the book, Sanders not only was critical of Republicans, he also criticized Democrats as too ineffective. Tom Ferguson of the Like the Dew blog wrote "One could question whether the book has a lot of filler in the form of speeches Bernie made on this and other tours but, since they're good, important speeches, they justify themselves" and that Sanders's questioning of American foreign policy "highlights Bernie as one of the very few elected officials with the courage to go down those roads."

Professional baseball has been played in Pawtucket, Rhode Island since 1892 and continually since 1970. The first team to call Pawtucket home, the Secrets of the New England League, disbanded on July 26, 1892 with a dismal 17–43 record. The team played its games on the Dexter Street grounds, which housed two other Pawtucket teams in the New England League through 1899.

Following the Secrets (1892), the Maroons (1894-95, 97-99) and Phenoms (1896) called Pawtucket home. After the Maroons were expelled in August 1899, Pawtucket would be without baseball until 1908, although the Colts of the Class C Atlantic Association lasted only 9 games before disbanding and leaving Pawtucket without a team for 6 more seasons.

In 1914 the Rovers joined the Class C Colonial League, playing their games at the Sabin Street grounds in the Royal Square area, but were kicked out in August 1915 because of an affiliation with a competing league.

McCoy Stadium, named in honor of Thomas P. McCoy, the Mayor of Pawtucket from 1936 to 1945, was dedicated just in time for the return of professional baseball in 1946 as the Pawtucket Slaters of the Class B New England League debuted. The Slaters lasted 4 full seasons, but in 1950 the New England League disbanded and 8-year old McCoy Stadium was left without a permanent tenant.

That would change in 1966 when the Cleveland Indians' Double-A Eastern League team, the Pawtucket Indians, relocated to Pawtucket. The Indians left after the 1967 season but professional baseball, and the Eastern League, would return to McCoy in 1970 when the city's affiliation with the Boston Red Sox began. After 3 seasons (1970-72) as a host to Boston's Double-A affiliate, the Pawtucket Red Sox moved their Triple-A operation to Pawtucket in time for the 1973 season and the team has remained there since. The 1973 PawSox were the first Pawtucket team ever to win a league championship, a feat they repeated in 1984.

Taimi was launched in 2017 by Social Impact Inc. in Las Vegas. Taimi's founder Alex Pasykov came up with a name for the dating app “Tame Me” which gradually morphed into Taimi.

The company has expanded to several countries in Europe. On October 31, 2018, Taimi announced the launch in the United Kingdom. On July 20, 2019, Taimi launched in the Netherlands, Spain and countries in Central America followed.

In 2020, after BlueCity went public with Blued, Pasykov hinted at the possibility of Taimi's future IPO.

Features

In 2018 the app was met with a negative response from LGBTQI+ activists when Taimi implemented a filter that allowed Taimi users to block each other based on HIV status. Taimi removed the filter and that option is no longer available.

In 2020, Taimi launched new features including Rainbow Like and Live Streams. The latter were introduced during a livestreaming event, Taimi Talks.

In November 2020 the app underwent a full redesign, incorporating a new logo, new branding, and an upgraded app interface.
