NEWTOWN – The Planning and Zoning Commission last week approved an application to construct two athletic fields, a clubhouse and associated parking, landscaping, storm drainage and utility improvements at 90 Mt. Pleasant Rd. The Special Exception application, submitted by Civil 1, had met with resistance from neighboring residents, who had expressed concern about traffic and the potential impact on wells and storm water drainage in the area. An intervenor, Whippoorwill Hill, had presented opposing information at the commission’s December meeting. Last month, attorney John Knuff, representing the applicant, had reminded the commission that the intervenor could only address environmental concerns and must prove that the applicant’s proposal has an unreasonable likelihood of causing polltion before the Public Hearing was closed. Commissioners did not have too much to say before voting to approve the application. Chairman David Rosen said he felt the intervenor had not proven the case that there would be an adverse environmental impact. Barbara Manville said she felt the project could bring in business from attendees. Most agreed the use was not as intense as other uses might have been.  » Read More

Blizzard Entertainment has unveiled tons of exciting rewards for the celebration of a new chapter but putting emphasis on the lore as well.

The rewards generally consist of 7 S1 lootboxes and 3 S1 Legendary lootboxes. The legendary lootbox holds more value for the players as it guarantees a Legendary Skin. On the other hand, the former has very less chance of dropping Legendary Skins and that is why it holds less preference to players. Speaking of which, if players can redeem 19 lootboxes for themselves, the 20th one definitely features a guaranteed Legendary Skin. Notably, these 7 lootboxes will certainly benefit

A number of major tech companies have agreed to submit to independent grading of the mental health impacts of using their apps. Platforms on board at the launch of the Safe Online Standards initiative include Discord, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Roblox, and Twitch … Numerous studies over the years have demonstrated that usage of social media apps can have a negative impact on the mental health of adolescents. Both city and national governments have taken various actions ranging from lawsuits to nationwide bans. Tech companies have introduced age verification and other protective measures, but it is clear that more needs to be done.

Results will be published in a public, color-coded ratings system designed to be simple and accessible. S.O.S. was developed without technology company or government funding

LinkedIn has become a common place for CFOs to share perspectives, stay visible and engage with peers across the finance community. As more executives use the platform, questions remain about how to show up in a way that feels credible and useful without slipping into cringe territory.  For this edition of the Peer Audit series, we asked CFOs: How can you build a strong presence on LinkedIn without being cringy? Hugo Doetsch, CFO, AuditBoard (management and compliance software)  Hugo Doetsch Permission granted by AuditBoard “I look at LinkedIn two ways. First, it’s the network. I don’t even take business cards anymore. It’s just, ‘Let’s connect on LinkedIn.’ It’s where I create, grow and manage my professional relationships. The second part is brand, whether that’s awareness for your company or equity for you as an individual. I’m not a big social media person. I’m not on Instagram or Facebook, but I am on LinkedIn. As an executive, you’ve got to have a profile there. In some ways, it’s like being a professional athlete. You have to make sure your image, your reputation and your results are spot on. LinkedIn is
