The document discusses developments in the European cannabis market and the diversification of cannabis products. It summarizes that:
1) Herbal cannabis available in Europe comes in two main forms - imported varieties with seeds, and high-potency "sinsemilla" varieties grown indoors in Europe without seeds.
2) Indoor-grown "sinsemilla" has higher THC levels than imported varieties due to controlled growing conditions that maximize THC production.
3) THC levels in herbal cannabis, especially indoor varieties, have been increasing in recent years due to selective breeding of high-THC strains and optimized growing techniques.
This document is a complaint filed in the Supreme Court of New York by several Blackstone entities, Sforza Holdco, and Kryalos against Urbano Cairo. The complaint alleges that Cairo, as the new controlling shareholder of RCS Media Group, is maliciously interfering with the plaintiffs' nearly completed sale of certain commercial properties in Milan to Allianz by claiming the plaintiffs' 2013 purchase of the properties from RCS is "null and void." The plaintiffs assert Cairo's claims are baseless and intended to extort the plaintiffs and interfere with the sale transaction. The plaintiffs are seeking damages for Cairo's slander of their title to the properties and tortious interference with their contract with Allianz.

The employment rate in the OECD area increased slightly to 68.4% in the third quarter of 2018, with 570 million people employed. The euro area employment rate also increased to 67.4%. Several countries saw increases of 0.5 percentage points or more, while the rate declined slightly in a few others like the UK, Korea, and Chile. The gender gap in employment rates continued to decline for the OECD area as a whole.
The letter from the European Council President and European Commission President responds to a letter from UK Prime Minister Theresa May regarding Brexit. It confirms their understanding of key points within the Withdrawal Agreement and Political Declaration, including that the backstop is intended to be temporary and the EU is committed to negotiating a subsequent agreement to replace it. The letter also states both sides are prepared to sign the Withdrawal Agreement after the UK Parliament vote and will work to have the future relationship in place by the end of 2020.
This document is a complaint filed in the Supreme Court of New York by the Plaintiffs (various Blackstone entities, Sforza Holdco, and Kryalos SGR) against the Defendant RCS Media Group. The Plaintiffs purchased commercial real estate properties in Milan from RCS in 2013 and have since substantially increased the value of the properties. They are now seeking to sell their interests in the properties to Allianz Real Estate GmbH. However, RCS has recently claimed that the 2013 sale is "null and void" and is interfering with the Plaintiffs' sale to Allianz. The Plaintiffs are seeking declaratory and monetary relief against RCS for tortiously interfering with their sale expectancy to Allianz.
The document summarizes key issues with the proposed UK Withdrawal Agreement from the EU:
1) The UK would pay £39 billion to the EU with nothing guaranteed in return and no influence over how the money is spent.
2) The UK would remain bound by many EU laws but have no say in their creation, making the UK a "rule taker" and surrendering sovereignty.
3) The agreement establishes a backstop customs union that the UK cannot exit without EU approval, violating promises made and the Conservative manifesto.
4) The agreement treats Northern Ireland differently than the rest of the UK, undermining UK territorial integrity in a way the DUP cannot accept.

This document provides Italy's draft budgetary plan for 2019. It summarizes recent economic trends in Italy, including slowing GDP growth and employment gains. It then outlines the government's macroeconomic and fiscal targets over 2019-2021, including a planned reduction in the budget deficit from 2.4% of GDP in 2019 to 1.8% by 2021. The plan expects GDP growth to accelerate to 1.5% in 2019 and above 1.6% in 2020-2021, driven by stronger domestic demand, exports, and employment growth. Public investment is forecasted to rise to support the economic expansion.

This document discusses the need for global emissions to peak by 2020 in order to meet the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement. It summarizes the key risks of exceeding 1.5-2°C of warming such as destabilization of ice sheets and coral reef die off. It analyzes carbon budgets consistent with different emissions peaking years, finding that peaking by 2020 or earlier allows for greater reductions later on. Recent trends of flat global emissions over the past few years provide hope that peaking by 2020 is possible with major accelerated action. The document aims to outline six milestones that could help achieve a 2020 peak.
