Speech and debate students say Ketanji Brown Jackson aced her Supreme Court confirmation hearing
Senate Judiciary Committee expected to send Jackson's nomination to full Senate on Monday
Kevin McCoy
USA TODAY
As Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson fielded tough questions during her Supreme Court confirmation hearings, a discerning group was watching and listening – speech and debate students across the country.
They knew that Jackson, the first Black woman nominated to the nation's highest court, credits part of her success in life and the law to her speech and debate team training decades ago in Florida at Miami Palmetto Senior High School.

MAK @100: Challenge of building for the future
What you need to know:
- Government must increase substantially annual budgetary allocation to the premier university of Uganda.
This year marks the centenary of one of Africa’s greatest institutions of higher learning which is my alma mater, Makerere University. During the week I arrived as a freshman at Makerere College of the University of East Africa (UEA) in June 1967, I felt and knew instinctively that I made the best and right decision for my academic career.
The University of East Africa was split into three national universities in 1970, namely, Makerere University Kampala, University of Nairobi and University of Dar es Salaam. My classmates at Makerere included Albert Yobo, Edward Keronega, Philemon Mateke, Milcah Litaru, Ruth Anyoti, John Butime and Atieno Odhiambo.
With the benefit of hindsight, I wish UEA was not disbanded because academic standards in East Africa have generally declined since then. Unlike UEA, University of West Indies (UWI) in Kingston, Jamaica, exists and thrives today.
The motto of Makerere College, founded in 1922, was in Latin: Pro futuro aedificamus (we build for the future). Is Makerere building for the future of Uganda, Africa and the world? That is the challenge facing Makerere as Ugandans prepare to celebrate the centenary of university.
On this auspicious occasion I would like to express and convey warm congratulations to the chancellor, vice chancellor, academic staff, support staff, alumni, friends and above all to students of the great Makerere University.
ALSO READ: Is university education relevant?
The fire which gutted the iconic Main Hall of Makerere on September 20, 2020, is a bad omen for the university and for Uganda. One hopes the Main Hall which was the landmark of Makerere University will be rebuilt soon. I believe Makerere University will rise from the ashes and shine again.
In an Opinion piece titled, ‘The role of a university in a developing African country’ published in Daily Monitor of December 11, 2011, I raised a number of legitimate concerns about Makerere which have regrettably not been adequately addressed. Among those who sent me feedback on the opinion was Prof Apolo Nsibambi who concurred with most of the pertinent issues I raised, especially the high student/teacher ratio, the trend towards commercialisation of Makerere University, poor terms of service of academic staff and appalling living conditions of students on campus.
Nsabambi (RIP) was a former chancellor of Makerere University, prime minister and one of my Political Science lecturers in the 1968/1969 academic year.
What can be done to enable Makerere University to rise and shine again?
First, as a public institution government must increase substantially annual budgetary allocation to the premier university of Uganda so that Makerere can vigorously and relentlessly pursue and realise its core mission, namely, to search for the truth, contribute to the advancement of the frontiers of knowledge and undertake original research in all fields of human endeavour, including the Arts and Sciences.
Second, in addition to public resources the vice chancellor should take the initiative to mobilise financial resources from the private sector, which is a major beneficiary of the products of the university and alumni of the university who are willing to support the institution that groomed them.
Third, there is an urgent need to address the challenge of student/teacher ratio. According to reliable sources, undergraduate classes at Makerere University are too big and consequently difficult to manage efficiently and effectively. I was surprised to learn that weekly tutorial classes have been abandoned because of the large number of students admitted for most courses. Makerere must not sacrifice quality for quantity.
Fourth, I would like to advise the Political Science department to drop Public Administration from its nomenclature because it’s frankly superfluous. May Makerere build for the future!

A documentary about death and dying might not sound like the most uplifting subject, but filmmaker Bradley Berman promises audiences that give his new film a chance will come away inspired.
“On the surface, you think it’s a story about a guy who dies, but it’s really life-affirming,” Berman says. “It’s a celebration of what an amazing thing it is to reach the end of your life. And to give yourself permission to be happy”
The film follows Berman’s friend, Jack Tuller, a musician and storyteller who was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor and given six months to live in 1994. “Jack has a Plan” picks up 25 years later when Tuller, at 55, is grappling with the worsening of his condition. Faced with his diminishing capacities, Tuller hatches a plan to throw a going-away party, and exit life’s stage.
Berman says the idea for making the film actually came from Tuller himself. “He was totally aware of the condition that he faced and he wanted to leave a legacy. So he approached me, [and said] let’s start shooting something.”
“This gave me a way to slow down and spend some quality time with such a close friend,” Berman continued, adding that much of the film was shot with iPhones, capturing candid conversations, FaceTime calls and more. “I wanted it to feel like you’re hanging out with him,” he said.
“Jack has a Plan” will have its world premiere on April 9 as part of the Florida Film Festival at Enzian theater, and though Berman’s illustrious career has taken him far from the sunshine state, he couldn’t be prouder to be debuting this highly personal film in his home state.
“I’ve lived in California and in New York for the past 35 years and I’ve had a great career as a writer, publisher now filmmaker, but I trace it all back to the time that I grew up as a young man and in Florida,” he said.
“Maitland Art Center was where I took my first photography class, and just fell in love with art and storytelling. And Enzian was there since the time I just graduated college, and I would come back and that’s where I would see the cool art films and documentaries and foreign films that you just couldn’t see anywhere else.”
Tickets for the Florida Film Festival are available now at FloridaFilmFestival.com. In addition to seeing the world premiere of “Jack has a Plan,” festival-goers can also catch Berman during a special filmmakers panel on April 14 where he’ll dive into some more technical aspects of his filming process.

The health exchange that facilitates the purchase of Obamacare plans for Connecticut residents should do more to safeguard its clients’ personal data, a recent state audit found, and also failed to report dozens of security lapses to state authorities.
Personal information was lost in 44 breaches at Access Health CT between July 2017 and March 2021, including a phishing scam that affected 1,100 people, according to the early March report from the Auditors of Public Accounts. But these lapses were not reported to the auditor or the state Comptroller’s Office, which is required by law, according to the audit.
State Auditor John Geragosian said his office reviewed Access Health CT’s information security policies and found need for improvement.
“Internal controls were not adequate to prevent the breaches of client data,” he said in a statement.
The office recommended Access Health CT beef up its security practices, and noted in the audit report “the exchange did not take sufficient actions to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and security of client data.”
Meanwhile, the exchange has reported experiencing the most breaches of any organization, private or public, in Connecticut over recent years, according to a review of data from the state Attorney General’s Office shared with Hearst Connecticut Media.
Of 44 data breaches auditors found — which were reported to the Attorney General as required but not to other state authorities — Access Health CT’s call center vendor, Faneuil Inc., was responsible in 34 cases. The organization, also called the Connecticut Health Insurance Exchange, is a private enterprise but is regulated by a state-appointed board; it does not receive any direct state funding.
Faneuil continues to operate Access Health CT’s call center. And three more breaches involving the call center vendor have been reported so far this year.
Faneuil declined to comment on the breaches and the audit findings, directing all questions to Access Health CT.
In a statement, Kathleen Tallarita, spokeswoman for the agency, explained most of the breaches in question are small, affecting one consumer at a time.
Access Health CT also hired an outside cybersecurity firm, Stamford-based JANUS Associates, to help put in place a stronger information security framework, Tallarita said. She added that any vendor responsible for a breach is required to pay for the affected client’s security monitoring, including Faneuil.
“The exchange monitors vendor compliance with security requirements and has implemented additional protocols to improve security practices at Faneuil and to monitor their compliance,” she said.
In total, Access Health CT reported about 110 breaches between 2013 and 2020, more than any other organization inside or outside Connecticut, Attorney General office data shows. It is not clear from the data whether an Access Health CT employee or one of its vendors was involved in each of the lapses.
The call center at Access Health CT has had repeated issues with accidentally linking the wrong personal information to other people’s online accounts, according to the reports Access Health CT filed with regulators disclosing the loss of client information.
The reports, which did not point out any malicious intent in the losses of private data, detail how call center representatives have mistakenly given access of personal information to different clients by adding people to the wrong accounts.
In a recent breach reported on Jan. 28, for example, the mistake was discovered when a client called the center to let them know she could view someone else’s private data.
Faneuil secured its contract to manage Access Health CT’s customer support in 2016. The contract was renewed in 2019 and again in August, according to the organization’s financial statements.
Though Access Health CT has said most of the breaches it reports involve just one person, the health insurance exchange has also not been immune to outside attacks that expose the information of more people. Geragosian said a phishing scam involving an Access Health CT employee in October 2019 also went unreported to the auditor and Comptroller’s offices. Faneuil also experienced a ransomware attack in Aug. 2021, according to documents shared by the auditor’s office.
Access Health CT handled about 573,000 inquiries from state residents during 2021, including through its call center, according to the organization’s latest annual report.
The pandemic’s effects — including increases in the ranks of the unemployed and new financial relief from aid packages — pushed more people to seek out Affordable Care Act plans and use Access Health CT’s services. By the end of 2021, enrollments were up by 7%.

Shanghai asks entire city to self-test for Covid as frustration grows
Shanghai on Sunday ordered its 26 million residents to undergo two more rounds of tests for Covid-19 as public anger grows over how authorities in China's most populous city are tackling a record coronavirus surge.
Residents should self-test on Sunday using antigen kits and report any positive results, Shanghai government officials told a news conference, while a nucleic acid test would be conducted citywide on Monday (4 April).
"The main task is to completely eliminate risk points and to cut off the chain of transmission so that we can curb the spread of the epidemic as soon as possible," said Wu Qianyu, an inspector from Shanghai Municipal Health Commission.
Essentially all of China's financial capital is locked down after the city began curbing movement in its eastern districts last Monday, extending the restrictions to the entire city days later.
Shanghai's lockdown has massively disrupted daily life and businesses, even as healthcare workers and volunteers work round the clock trying to test the entire population and supply residents with groceries.
China's Covid caseload remains low by international standards, but spikes in places like Shanghai are testing its previously successful approach of stamping out the virus through strict curbs and aggressive testing and tracing.
Most of Shanghai's infections have been asymptomatic, according to official data, but China's "dynamic clearance" approach requires authorities to test, trace and centrally quarantine all positive cases.
Shanghai on Sunday reported 7,788 daily locally transmitted asymptomatic cases, up from 6,501 the day before, while symptomatic cases rose to 438 from 260.
The city accounted for the bulk of mainland China's 11,781 daily locally transmitted asymptomatic cases and nearly one-third of its 1,506 symptomatic cases. This was the highest national case count since the early days of the pandemic in February 2020.
China is also battling a large outbreak in the northeastern province of Jilin.
Sent to Shanghai by the central government, Vice-Premier Sun Chunlan urged the city on Saturday to "make resolute and swift moves" to curb the pandemic.
Growing anger
Stories of how Shanghai separates Covid-positive children from their parents have gone viral in the country and triggered widespread public anger.
Some have also demanded clarity over the testing regime, after a recorded phone call, reportedly between a Shanghai health official and a resident, was widely shared on Chinese social media.
Shanghai health officials said on Saturday they were investigating the case, in which the resident said his father had tested negative, according to his personal health app, but was told he was positive and had to be centrally quarantined.
In a rare instance of grassroots lobbying, several residents reposted a statement on the WeChat and Weibo social media platforms saying they wanted asymptomatic or mild cases to be allowed to isolate at home, after reports of unsanitary and crowded conditions at quarantine facilities.
Jane Polubotko, a Ukrainian marketing manager quarantining at the Shanghai New International Expo Center, told Reuters there were no showers at the facility and she had only seen people with light symptoms, such as sneezes and coughs.
Supply chains and businesses are also being tested.
River congestion for containers and oil tankers off Shanghai has been easing since Thursday, but the number of bulkers queuing in outer Yangtze estuary anchorage jumped to nearly 90, the most since early October, Refinitiv data showed.
Nearby ports, such as Ningbo in Zhejiang province, are experiencing an acute surge in waiting vessels waiting, as companies divert cargos to avoid prolonged logistics turnarounds.
Still,some are hoping that lockdowns could start to ease soon.
Tesla Inc hopes to resume production at its Shanghai factory on Monday, two people familiar with the matter said, as it expects to see its first batch of workers released from lockdown.

Facebook’s parent company Meta enlisted the help of a top Republican consulting firm to orchestrate an anti-TikTok campaign.
According to The Washington Post, the company has been using an aggressive strategy to take down its biggest competitor by promoting posts that are questionable or fake. This includes placing op-eds and letters in major regional news outlets, pushing narratives about supposed TikTok trends on social media sites like Twitter where companies vie for cultural relevance.
Employees from the firm Targeted Victory are on a nationwide media and lobbying campaign to persuade Americans that TikTok is dangerous for children. Internal emails shared by The Washington Post reveal how they're trying their best to derail this app, which has grown by leaps since 2017 when it first launched inside of China-based ByteDance's company BytePark Incorporated.
Meta's rival is a popular app among teens and young adults. It has been ranked #1 in data sharing with its users. The Targeted Victory campaign operatives were encouraged by their bosses to use this prominence of Meta’s competitor as a way for them to distract from the privacy concerns at Meta. The agency works towards shaping public opinion through paid ads on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, where users are usually exposed only once, over long periods of time. It seems that there might be an opportunity for success if they take the campaign into new territory - namely TikTok videos.
The emails show how Meta and its partners will use opposition-research tactics on the Chinese-owned, multibillion-dollar rival that has become one of today's most downloaded apps. In an internal report last year leaked by whistleblower Frances Haugen (a former employee) Facebook researchers say teens are spending "2 - 3X more time" on TikTok than Instagram and this could be bad news for Facebook because their popularity among young people declined tremendously after releasing these findings.
When Targeted Victory asked for ideas on local political reporters who could serve as a "backchannel" to spread anti-TikTok messages, one director said they wanted it “hands-off.” But other emails said they sent out staff with instructions about pushing stories linking TikTok's supposed dangers -including that it had become “the most harmful social media app ever created."
Meta, the company behind this campaign, and others have come under fire for their tactics. They claim that all platforms should face scrutiny in accordance with how successful they are becoming. But it seems like TikTok isn’t too worried about being judged by those standards just yet - at least not until there's more information available on what really happened during these incidents involving local media.
Targeted Victory helped to enhance a reported TikTok trend called the "devious licks" challenge which showed students vandalizing school property. They pushed stories about this on local media across Massachusetts and Michigan with their work done for other states as well, such as Rhode Island and Washington DC.
When Targeted Victory heard of a “Slap a Teacher” TikTok challenge in Hawaii, they spread rumors of it on their own news station. Finally, an insider revealed that no such thing had happened and hearing this from someone else made them realize how easy it is for fake stories like these to go viral online without any fact-checking or verification whatsoever.
The “devious licks” challenge initially spread on Facebook, not TikTok. This is according to an investigation by Anna Foley at the podcast network Gimlet which found that rumors of this trend led Sen Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn) to write a letter in September calling for executives from Tik Tok to testify before his subcommittee claiming they had been "repeatedly misused and abuse [to] promote behavior leading harmful acts."
The Denver Post was contacted by the agency, Targeted Victory, which helped orchestrate a letter from an “interested” parent regarding their concerns with TikTok. The letter said that data privacy and mental health were both threatened by this app which has been downloaded onto many people's phones including children’s smartphones.
In response to a letter from Targeted Victory, an Iowa representative announced that they would be withdrawing their support for TikTok and other social media apps. This comes after Mary McAdams—the chairperson of Ankeny Area Democrats--ran similar pieces to the Denver Post in the Des Moines Register calling on people to reject Tik Tok.
Targeted Victory is a Republican digital consulting firm founded by Zac Moffatt who was responsible for Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign and countless other advisory roles in politics over the years. This has come to be one of America’s most influential political operations.
The agency was even called to give testimony in Congress after the 2016 election is when it comes down right-of-center perspective they bring with them on campaigns. They can deploy field teams anywhere within 48 hours which makes this company one of if not THE biggest recipient (rivaling million-dollar spending) for campaign finance from the GOP side.
When asked about the issue of monopoly on social media, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg pointed at TikTok instead. He said that the app is "the fastest-growing" and it will help counter any concerns people might have with his company's power over digital news feeds or content creators in general.
Facebook has spent $20 million on lobbying since 2019, more than any other company in America.

Espargaro “proud” of historic Aprilia MotoGP pole after “how far we’ve suffered”
Aleix Espargaro says he is “proud” to have scored an historic first MotoGP pole for Aprilia at the Argentina Grand Prix after “how far we’ve suffered” since joining the team.
The Spaniard – who will start his 200th premier class race on Sunday – was in strong form across the condensed Saturday schedule at Termas de Rio Hondo, leading an Aprilia 1-2 in FP2 before taking pole by 0.151 seconds in qualifying.
This is Espargaro’s third pole in MotoGP and makes him the first rider in the modern era to top qualifying on three different bikes (Forward Yamaha at Assen 2014, Suzuki at Barcelona in 2015, Aprilia at Rio Hondo in 2022).
Since joining Aprilia in 2017, Espargaro helped drag Aprilia from the back of the grid and feels his Argentina pole is “my present” to the Italian marque for his efforts.
“I’m very happy, especially [I’m] proud of what we are achieving,” Espargaro said on Saturday.
“It’s my sixth season in Aprilia and I know how far we’ve come from, how far we’ve suffered.
“So, to prove at least today that we have been the fastest bike of the world is something that makes me happy.
“It’s not super important because the points will come [in the race], but for a rider to feel this speed, to feel that you are the fastest one is always great.
“And it’s the first one for Aprilia, it’s a very nice moment. So, I would like to dedicate this to everyone in the MotoGP project – not just on track, but also at Noale.
“I’m very happy and this is my present for everyone at Aprilia.”
Maverick Vinales, Aprilia Racing Team

Espargaro’s race pace is amongst the strongest for Sunday’s 25-lap grand prix, but he says he must keep his “feet on the ground” when asked if he can fight for his first MotoGP win today.
“I mean, especially the bike with the hard front tyre I felt extremely good today,” he added.
“I can brake late and I can maintain a very high corner speed. So, the bike worked extremely good.
“The race pace is quite strong, but [we need to keep our] feet on the ground. It’s just Saturday and it’s a special GP because there’s been just one day of practice.
“We have a lot of things to analyse and warm-up is longer. The pole position is an extra boost of confidence for myself and in the race I will try my best.
“I just need to push from one lap, the tyre consumption is quite good and the pace is quite strong. So I just need to be as relaxed as possible and do my best.”
Team-mate Maverick Vinales bolstered Aprilia’s strong Saturday by qualifying fifth – his best grid slot with the marque.
Having made a breakthrough with bike set-up and his feeling on the front-end during warm-up in Indonesia last time out, Vinales carried that on into Argentina and feels he can be happy whatever happens in the race.
“Well, I have to say that especially we made a big step in Mandalika warm-up and the good thing is I found the same feeling from the first lap [in Argentina], even if the grip was very low at the beginning of FP1, I felt the same [as in Indonesia] in the front,” he said.
“It was very important to keep that feeling in the front.
“For sure we made a step forward and overall, I felt very good with the bike.
“One lap we still need to work, it’s very difficult for me because I need to more feeling, I need more confidence, I need to push more on the limit and still I don’t have that.
“But I was very happy with the rhythm so I’m very enthusiastic for tomorrow.
“We know it can be a good race, but even if it’s a bad race I’m very happy because we are doing steps forward and this is just the base, and what I’m happy with is if this is just the pace we are there. So, very happy honestly.”

Both the city and the plant, which generates more than a fifth of Ukraine’s electricity and is one of Europe’s largest nuclear facilities, have been under the control of Russian forces since March 4, according to Interfax-Ukraine.

The Curva Nord displayed the words “Courage Sinisa. Shoot, score, fight and win once again”. On Instagram the gratitude of Arianna and Virginia
They have not forgotten him and have always been close to him. All the more so now that leukemia has returned to undermine his health.
During the match won today 2-1 at the Olimpico against Sassuolo, the fans of the Northern Curva of Lazio displayed a banner in support of the former biancoceleste: “Come on Sinisa. Shoot, score, fight and win once again”. The Lazio fans have also dedicated several choirs to the current Bologna coach, including the classic “Se tira Sinisa is a goal”. It happens just as another Serbian, Milinkovic Savic, scored the 2-0 goal.
Arianna Rapaccioni, Sinisa’s wife, and her daughter Virginia, thanked them on social media. Ms. Mihajlovic published a post with the photo of the banner, writing “Thank you, you are special”, between two pairs of white and blue hearts. Which Virginia also posted on her Instagram with the words “Thank you”.

In the opening race of the 2022 Italian Speed Championship, the triumph of the newly graduated in Economy, Honda rider. Pirro slipped in the rain, then 12 °. Canepa also on the podium. Fallen Mattia Pasini
– Milan
A triumphal graduate in the SBK of Civ. Luca Vitali, after having recently graduated in Economics from the University of Rimini, also obtained his first victory in the queen category of Italian. In an inaugural Civ 2022 race in Misano where there was no shortage of twists.
civ, sbk race
–
Starting in dry conditions, the race saw two potential protagonists immediately lose due to a crash: Andrea Mantovani (Ducati) and Mattia Pasini (Yamaha). The poleman Michele Pirro then tried to escape by imposing his usual pace. This time, however, it went differently. The multiple Italian champion ran into a fall without consequences, which however forced him to restart from the rear. At that point Alessandro Delbianco was leading. The Aprilia standard bearer was able to overtake his rivals, until the moment when, in the final laps, drops of water began to fall on the track. The prelude to yet another twist: Delbianco out for a crash. Behind him the leading trio made up of Vitali, Lorenzo Zanetti and Niccolò Canepa battled for the victory. One lap from the end, however, the race was interrupted by the red flag due to rain, with the classification updated to the previous lap and the victory of Vitali (Honda) ahead of Zanetti (Ducati) and Canepa (Yamaha). The latter was good at resuming the first after a contact immediately at the start that had slowed him down. For a podium made up of three different houses. And with the reigning champion, Pirro, 12th under the checkered flag.
civ, moto3 race
–
Moto3 saw a wet race and a head to head between Biagio Miceli, rider of the Gresini team, and Cesare Tiezzi, standard bearer of AC Racing. Tiezzi was the winner for only 13 cents. Third step of the podium for Alberto Ferrandez Beneite. The reigning champion of Premoto3, making his debut in the category, was forced to leave the pit lane due to a problem with his bike on the starting grid. Once he started, however, he was the author of a great comeback that brought him to the podium.
civ, race ss600
–
Dry race in 600, which inaugurated the novelty of the double classification, the Supersport Ng, with bikes in world configuration that will follow the same world championship regulations, and the 600 CIV, made up of bikes with the usual configuration. In Ng the victory went to Stefano Valtulini (Yamaha), author of a last lap in which he managed to get the better of Nicholas Spinelli (Ducati), beating him by only 45 cents. Third step of the podium for the Italian multiple champion Massimo Roccoli (Yamaha). Triplet Yamaha in the 600 CIV. The victory was won by Kevin Zannoni (5th in the race) ahead of Marco Bussolotti (9th in the race) and Armando Pontone (13th in the race).
civ, the other races
–
The Premoto3 race was hard-fought and balanced, ending with six riders within six tenths of a second. Triumphing in the photofinish of a dry race was Leonardo Zanni, good at getting the better of Luca Agostinelli with Lorenzo Cavalletto closing the podium. All in a category in which the minimum age limit to participate has been raised, now set at 13 years, with the inclusion of a maximum age: 16 years. The Ss300 h saw the confirmation of the talent of Matteo Vannucci (Yamaha). The young Tuscan driver, reigning champion, after obtaining pole position went on to win by trimming a gap of almost two seconds to his opponents. Behind him, in a race that was also dry, the second position was conquered by Emanuele Vocino (Kawasaki) with Filippo Rovelli (Yamaha) on the third step of the podium despite a three-second penalty for track limit.

Ukraine sees openings as Russia fixed on besieged Mariupol
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) - Residents of Ukraine’s besieged southeastern coast awaited possible evacuation Sunday as the country’s president said Russia’s obsession with capturing a key port city had left its forces weakened and created opportunities for his military.
Two loud explosions were heard in Odesa on the Black Sea, and black smoke was seen rising above the city, which is where Ukraine’s navy is headquartered. It is west of Mariupol, a smaller port that has been under attack for almost the entire war and rescuers are desperate to reach.
The Odesa city council said in a brief statement that a morning airstrike set off fires in some areas. The Russian military said hours later that it used ships and aircraft-fired missiles to strike an oil processing plant and fuel depots that were supplying Ukrainian troops.
The city council said Ukraine’s air defense shot down some missiles before they hit the city. Ukrainian military spokesman Vladyslav Nazarov said there were no casualties from the attack.
In Mariupol, conditions remained dire and prospects for escape uncertain. The surrounded city, which has been brutalized by some of the war’s worst attacks, reported weeks ago that water, food, fuel and medicine were running out. About 100,000 people are believed to still be there, less than a quarter of the city’s prewar population of 430,000.
The International Committee of the Red Cross said it hoped a team it sent to help evacuate residents would reach Mariupol on Sunday. Ukrainian authorities said Russia agreed days ago to allow safe passage from the city, but similar agreements have broken down repeatedly under continued shelling.
GRAPHIC WARNING: Videos in this story may contain disturbing content.
Mariupol is in the mostly Russian-speaking Donbas region, where Moscow-backed separatists have fought Ukrainian troops for eight years. Its capture would create an unbroken land corridor from Russia to Crimea, which Moscow seized from Ukraine in 2014.
With Mariupol squarely in Russia’s crosshairs, Ukraine insists it has gained a leg up elsewhere in the country. As his country’s troops retook territory north of the capital of Kyiv from departing Russian troops, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on all Ukrainians to do whatever they could “to foil the enemy’s tactics and weaken its capabilities.”
“Peace will not be the result of any decisions the enemy makes somewhere in Moscow. There is no need to entertain empty hopes that they will simply leave our land. We can only have peace by fighting,” Zelenskyy said late Saturday.
Zelenskyy and Ukraine’s Western allies believe Russia has shifted its forces from the capital region and the country’s north in order to build strength in the east and south. The Ukrainian leader again urged the West to supply his military with warplanes and more anti-missile systems.
“Every Russian missile that hits our cities and every bomb dropped on our people, on our children, only adds black paint to the history that will describe everyone on whom the decision depended - the decision of whether to help Ukraine with modern weapons,” Zelenskyy said.
While the geography of the battlefield morphed, little changed for many Ukrainians more than five weeks into a war that has sent more than 4 million people fleeing the country as refugees and displaced millions more from their homes.
The regional governor in Kharkiv, said Sunday that Russian artillery and tanks performed over 20 strikes on Ukraine’s second-largest city and its outskirts in the country’s northeast over the past day. Gov. Oleh Synyehubov said a missile strike on the city of Lozovo wounded four people and that Russian tanks bombarded a hospital in the town of Balakliia.
Zelenskyy alleged Saturday that Russian troops have left mines around homes, abandoned equipment and even the bodies of the dead as they withdraw from around Kyiv. Those claims could not be independently verified, but Ukrainian troops were seen heeding the warning.
In Bucha, northwest of the capital, Associated Press journalists watched as Ukrainian soldiers, backed by a column of tanks and other armored vehicles, used cables to drag bodies off of a street from a distance for fear they may have been booby-trapped. Locals said the dead — AP counted at least six — were civilians killed without provocation by departing Russian soldiers.
In towns and cities surrounding Kyiv, signs of fierce fighting were everywhere in the wake of the Russian redeployment. Destroyed armored vehicles from both armies lay in streets and fields along with scattered military gear.
Ukrainian troops were stationed at the entrance to Antonov Airport in the suburb of Hostomel, demonstrating control of the runway that Russia tried to storm in the first days of the war.
Inside the compound, the Mriya, one of the biggest planes ever built, lay wrecked underneath a hangar pockmarked with holes from the February attack.
The head of Ukraine’s delegation in talks with Russia said Moscow’s negotiators informally agreed to most of a draft proposal discussed during face-to-face talks in Istanbul this week, but no written confirmation has been provided.
The Ukrainian negotiator, Davyd Arakhamia said on Ukrainian TV that he hoped the was developed enough so that the two countries’ presidents can meet to discuss it.
Ukrainian authorities warned that Russia’s focus on eastern Ukraine did not mean Kyiv and other cities wouldn’t become targets again. In his evening address Saturday, Zelenskyy called for his people to do whatever they can to ensure the country’s survival, even by engaging in acts as simple as showing each other kindness.
“When a nation is defending itself in a war of annihilation, when it is a question of life or death of millions, there are no unimportant things. ... And everyone can contribute to a victory for all,” the president said.

Rigorous comparisons of human and machine learning algorithm performance on the same task help to support accurate claims about algorithm success rates and advances understanding of their performance relative to that of human performers. In turn, these comparisons are critical for supporting advances in artificial intelligence. However, the machine learning community has lacked a standardized, consensus framework for performing the evaluations of human performance necessary for comparison. We demonstrate common pitfalls in a designing the human performance evaluation and propose a framework for the evaluation of human performance, illustrating guiding principles for a successful comparison. These principles are first, to design the human evaluation with an understanding of the differences between human and algorithm cognition; second, to match trials between human participants and the algorithm evaluation, and third, to employ best practices for psychology research studies, such as the collection and analysis of supplementary and subjective data and adhering to ethical review protocols. We demonstrate our framework's utility for designing a study to evaluate human performance on a one-shot learning task. Adoption of this common framework may provide a standard approach to evaluate algorithm performance and aid in the reproducibility of comparisons between human and machine learning algorithm performance.

Editorial: A hard punch to the stomach
Greece does not have the death penalty, which is incompatible with both our democracy and our membership in the European Union.
The Greek judicial system may not be as effective and swift as it should be, but on the basic points it is clear.
These include the presumption of innocence: “Suspects and those charged are deemed innocent until their guilt is proven in accordance with the law.”
Greece does not have the death penalty, which is incompatible with both our democracy and our membership in the European Union.
There is much evidence that indicates that the death of three young sisters (nine-year-old Georgina and her two younger siblings before her) in Patras is due to a heinous and hair-raising crime that is unprecedented not only for Greece, but perhaps also in the annals of crime internationally.
That does not mean that the fundamental principles of a state that functions under the rule of law can be violated. The mother (Roula Pispirigou, photo) has already been charged with voluntary manslaughter in the case of the death of her eldest daughter, and the investigation is still underway.
It is not the job of a mob to take the law into its own hands or to deliver a verdict and decide the sentence. The scenes of enraged crowds that we saw in Patras (at the parents’ home) and outside of the courthouse in Athens are unacceptable.
The public’s emotional reaction and disgust are understandable. As Ta Nea wrote yesterday, this case is a “hard punch to the stomach of Greeks”.
Yet, the judiciary must be allowed to do its job freely, in an unbiased manner, and without emotional pressures, so that those who may have committed the crime or did not act to avert it can be punished.

BERLIN (AP) — Negotiations between scientists and governments over a key United Nations climate report were going down to the wire Sunday. Officials from major emerging economies insist that it needs to reflect their right to development. The latest report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is meant to show the paths by which the world can stay within the temperature limits agreed in the 2015 Paris accord. The agreement aims to cap global warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius this century. The closed-doors meeting was meant to wrap up Friday so that the report could be presented to the public on Monday. But several observers said the talks were still far from finished with less than 24 hours to go before the publication deadline.

VINTON COUNTY — Following a multi-month investigation, a local major crimes task force executed a search warrant in Vinton County last week.
Meigs County Sheriff Keith O. Wood reports that in the evening hours of Tuesday, March 29, agents with the Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission, Major Crimes Task Force of Meigs, Washington, Morgan, Noble and Monroe counties executed multiple search warrants in Meigs County and Vinton County after a six-month investigation into a major drug trafficking enterprise.
Search warrants were obtained by task force agents for the properties located at 32610 Hampton Hollow Rd. and 32635 Hampton Hollow Rd., both of which are located in Salem Township. Task Force Agents also executed a search warrant at 42732 State Route 160 in Vinton County as a part of the investigation.
Entry was made into all three residences simultaneously by agents with the Major Crimes Task Force, Washington County Sheriff’s Office SRT, and Monroe County Sheriff’s Office SRT. Upon execution of the search warrants numerous individuals were detained at each scene while a search of the residences took place. Upon a search of the three residences, agents located heroin, firearms, a large amount of cash, digital scales, drug paraphernalia, and other drug abuse related items.
While serving the search warrants, agents were informed that a large amount of heroin had been moved from the location in Vinton County to another residence which was also located in Vinton County. Agents with the Task Force were able to recover a safe from that residence and obtained an additional search warrant for the safe. Upon executing that search warrant, agents located approximately one pound of heroin which had been divided into multiple baggies.
Arrested during the search warrants were James L. White, 44, of Langsville, James L. White Jr, 22, of Langsville, and Jeffrey L. Fitzwater, 45, of Langsville. All individuals will face first degree felony Drug Trafficking as well as first degree felony Possession of Drugs. Due to the amount of drugs seized in this case, all three subjects will be charged under the major drug offender statute of the Ohio Revised Code. Amber M. Bare, 36, of Langsville and Kevin B. Jewell, 46, of Langsville were also arrested on outstanding warrants.
“I would like to thank everyone involved for a job well done in this case” stated Sheriff Wood. “We are very fortunate to have built relationships with other agencies who are always willing to provide assistance in cases like this. I would like to thank the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, the Vinton County Sheriff’s Office, the Major Crimes Task Force, and the deputies at my office for their assistance at the scene and for their hard work and dedication in continuing to take these drugs off the streets."
The Washington, Morgan, Noble, Monroe and Meigs Major Crimes Task Force is part of Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost’s Organized Crime Investigation Commission and is comprised of representatives of the Washington, Monroe, Morgan, Noble and Meigs County Sheriff’s Offices; the Marietta, Belpre, Middleport and McConnelsville Police Departments; the Washington, Morgan, Noble and Meigs County Prosecutor’s Office’s, and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.

Chief Justice of Pakistan Umar Ata Bandial has taken notice of the current situation in the country following the dismissal of a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan by National Assembly (NA) Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri and the subsequent dissolution of the NA by President Arif Alvi, the spokesperson of the apex court said on Sunday.
The weeks-long political turmoil in the country reached its climax today as the NA deputy speaker prorogued a much-awaited sitting of the lower house of parliament without allowing voting on a no-trust motion against PM Imran.
Dismissal of no-trust motion
Suri, who was chairing the session, dismissed the motion in a shock move, terming it against Article 5 of the Constitution, which states that "loyalty to the State is the basic duty of every citizen".
At the outset of the session, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf's (PTI's) Fawad Chaudhry took the floor and referred to the clause, reiterating the premier's earlier claims that a foreign conspiracy was behind the move to oust the government.
"On March 7, our official ambassador was invited to a meeting attended by the representatives of other countries. The meeting was told that a motion against PM Imran was being presented," he said, noting that this occurred a day before the opposition formally filed the no-trust move.
"We were told that relations with Pakistan were dependent on the success of the no-confidence motion. We were told that if the motion fails, then Pakistan's path would be very difficult. This is an operation for a regime change by a foreign government," he alleged.
The minister questioned how this could be allowed and called on the deputy speaker to decide the constitutionality of the no-trust move.
At that, Suri noted that the motion was presented on March 8 and should be according to the law and the Constitution. "No foreign power shall be allowed to topple an elected government through a conspiracy," he said, adding that the points raised by the minister were "valid".
He dismissed the motion, ruling that it was "contradictory" to the law, the Constitution and the rules.
Angered by the NA proceedings, opposition parties decided to hold their own meeting in the lower house of parliament with PML-N's Ayaz Sadiq sitting on the speaker's seat.
They conducted their own proceedings with 195 lawmakers voting in favour of the no-confidence motion, according to PPP's Sherry Rehman.
Dissolution of NA
Subsequently, in another shock move, PM Imran, in an address to the nation, said he had advised the president to "dissolve assemblies".
He also congratulated the nation for the no-trust motion being dismissed, saying the deputy speaker had "rejected the attempt of changing the regime [and] the foreign conspiracy".
The premier further said he had written to the president with advice to dissolve the assemblies, adding that the democrats should go to the public and elections should be held so the people could decide who they wanted in power.
"Prepare for elections. No corrupt forces will decide what the future of the country will be. When the assemblies will be dissolved, the procedure for the next elections and the caretaker government will begin," he added.
President Alvi then dissolved the NA on PM Imran's advice under Article 58 of the Constitution.
Fawad Chaudhry confirmed the development in a tweet, adding that the cabinet, too, had been dissolved while PM Imran would continue in office under Article 224 of the Constitution, which is related to elections and by-elections.
Meanwhile, PTI's Farrukh Habib said new elections would be held in 90 days.
These developments unfolded as opposition leaders lambasted the government for what they called a blatant violation of the Constitution and urged the SC to take notice of the situation and intervene.
'Political decisions shouldn't be taken in courtrooms'
Later, Fawad Chaudhry spoke to the media outside the SC and asserted that parliament was a separate institution and today's NA ruling couldn't be challenged in any court.
"Political decisions shouldn't be taken to courtrooms. I feel the processes have now moved forward," he said.
Chaudhry revealed that the president had dissolved the NA on the prime minister's advice and within 90 days elections would be held.
Within two to three days, he said, a letter would be sent to "former leader of Opposition Shehbaz Sharif", seeking "their names for the interim government".
Responding to a question, he added that the army had no relevance with the current situation. "This matter relates to parliament," he said.

Russians hear FIFA Congress plea from Ukraine to end the war
The appearance by video of the head of Ukrainian soccer, wearing an armored vest from the streets of Kyiv, brought the impact of Russia’s war into the FIFA Congress on Thursday.
“We have regularly received sad news of the deaths of members of the Ukrainian football community,” Andriy Pavelko said in a recorded message to the gathering in Qatar including delegates from Russia.
“They have been killed by the aggressors’ rockets from one of the biggest army in the world. Football has taken a back seat in our country.”
Kyiv hosted the Champions League final only four years ago. Then the soccer world shifted to Russia in 2018 for a World Cup that FIFA President Gianni Infantino still celebrated Thursday as “a great success sportingly and culturally."
“Obviously it did not solve the problems of the world,” Infantino said. “It did not even solve the problems in the region. It did not create a lasting peace.”
Infantino did not mention the man he was filmed juggling a ball with and praising in 2018: Russian President Vladimir Putin. Nor did Infantino blame or mention Russia in his speech.
There was a plea to “stop conflicts and wars” generally rather than specifically issuing a direct message to Putin, who awarded Infantino Russia’s Order of Friendship medal after the World Cup. And in the Doha audience was Alexey Sorokin, the chief executive of Russia’s 2018 organizing committee and former member of the FIFA Council.
There was an expression of regret from Sorokin but only that Pavelko “has these emotions” in the video address.
“It is difficult for them, we understand that,” Sorokin said. “But I’m here not to discuss politics or military activities or anything, I am here in the FIFA Congress.”
Russia won’t be in the draw for the World Cup on Friday after being disqualified from playing internationally by FIFA over the war. Ukraine can still qualify but its playoff semifinal against Scotland has been postponed until June with the hope the team will be in a position to return to the field by then.
For now, the priority for Ukraine is protecting the country from Russia as Pavelko told the FIFA Congress.
“Our children have suffered terrible psychological injuries. Perhaps football will help them forget the horrors of war,” he said as sandbags were being placed around a statue behind him in Kyiv. “I believe every word, prayer and action in support of Ukraine and against the war can stop it.
“We have no right to remain silent. Let there be no air-raid alarms in our cities, instead the songs of fans. Let the battles take place not in the streets with weapons but in crowded stadiums in fair football duel and let the spectators in the stands explode when their favorite team scores a goal, not the bombs.”

The killing of civilians in the town of Bucha near the Ukrainian capital was a "deliberate massacre," Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said Sunday, after the hasty retreat of Russian forces from the area.
"Bucha massacre was deliberate. Russians aim to eliminate as many Ukrainians as they can. We must stop them and kick them out. I demand new devastating G7 sanctions NOW," Kuleba wrote on Twitter.
"Kyiv region. 21st century Hell. Bodies of men and women, who were killed with their hands tied. The worst crimes of Nazism have returned to EU," Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhaylo Podolyak tweeted.
"This was purposely done by Russia. Impose an embargo on energy resources, close seaports. Stop the murders!"
The evidence has emerged of possible civilian killings around Kyiv as the Russian army has pulled back in the face of ferocious resistance from Ukrainian forces.
In Bucha, the bodies of nearly 300 civilians were found in mass graves after Russian troops withdrew, local officials said.
AFP reporters saw at least 20 bodies, all in civilian clothing, strewn across a single street. One had his hands tied behind his back with a white cloth, and his Ukrainian passport left open beside his body.
EU chief Charles Michel on Sunday pledged further sanctions on Moscow as he condemned "atrocities" carried out by Russian forces near Ukraine's capital Kyiv.
"Shocked by haunting images of atrocities committed by Russian army in Kyiv liberated region #BuchaMassacre," European Council head Michel wrote on Twitter.
"EU is assisting Ukraine & NGO's in gathering of necessary evidence for pursuit in international courts."
British Foreign Minister Liz Truss said that as evidence mounted of "appalling acts" in the Ukrainian towns of Irpin and Bucha, Russia's attacks on civilians must be investigated as "war crimes."

Prince William and wife Kate Middleton, who were bashed for their ‘charm offensive’ in the Caribbean last month, have been asked to adopt the press style of the late Princess Diana to be more successful in the media, reported Express UK.
According to a media expert, William and Kate’s royal reps haven’t been doing ‘enough’ to make the royal couple more palatable and ‘relevant in the post-Facebook era’.
Talking to Sky News Australia, Telamon Consulting Director Todd Hayward said: “They need to start spinning because they haven't changed the protocol or the schedule for a royal visit for about 100 years.”
He went on to add: “The Royals have not done enough and the people around them have not done enough to make them relevant in the post-Facebook and streaming era as well. Back in the days when we grew up, there were three TV channels, the world was simpler.”
Hayward added that while the royals had little to no competition back in the days, today they are competing with other royal families as well as Hollywood royalty like the Kardashians.
“They need to do something I think my opinion is back to what Diana did because she actually forged a connection with people,” Hayward stated.

In the weeks that follow, dead bodies begin to pile up, alarming Toshio Ozaki, the village doctor, that some sinister forces are likely at play, and it can’t just be some disease. Together with Megumi’s friends Kaori and Akira Tanaka, along with Natsuno Yuuki, the doctor tries to get to the bottom of the things only to find clues that lead him to the Kanemasa mansion.
Although ‘Shiki’ has very few similarities with ‘Meiruko-chan,’ it manages to keep viewers on the edge of their seats with its captivating storytelling and therefore is one of the horror anime that fans of the genre should definitely watch. All the episodes are accessible for streaming here.
6. Corpse Party: Tortured Souls (2013)
Nine students of the Kisaragi Academy perform an innocent ritual to bid farewell to a friend unbeknownst to its far-reaching consequences. The charm unknowingly connects their own school to the Heavenly Host Academy, which was destroyed following a series of unfortunate events.

5. When They Cry (2006)
In the summer of 1983, Keiichi Maebara moves to Hinamizawa, a beautiful little village where he soon becomes friends with Satoko, Rena, Mion, and Rika. All of them study in the same school, and on the surface, it seems that the village life is going to suit Keiichi. However, as the preparations for the annual festival begin, it becomes evident that Hinamizawa is not the peaceful village it appears to be, and all of Keiichi’s efforts to find the dark side of the region fail miserably as his new friends refuse to give him any useful information.
‘When They Cry’ recounts the story of a school-going protagonist who is desperate to learn the dark secret of the supernatural entities around him, quite like Miko from ‘Mieruko-chan.’ While the dynamics may differ, the theme remains the same, so we recommend fans of the latter to add ‘When They Cry’ to their watchlist.

4. Hell Girl (2005 – 2017)

In all the chaos, the Hell Girl does her job without failing and keeps an amoral stance throughout the entire procedure. The anime is a must-watch for anyone looking for a horror show that centers upon a young girl with mysterious supernatural abilities. You can watch ‘Hell Girl’ here.

The curiosity of a thirteen-year-old girl named Mana leads her to unexpected places as hidden secrets finally come to the fore.

Before we delve into today’s escape into yesteryear, Kirk Douglas fans, whatever you do, don’t read Lana Woods’ latest book, “Little Sister: My Investigation into the Mysterious Death of Natalie Wood!”
If you read it, as Briscoe Darling would say, “More power to you.”
Ditto, for both of y’all Robert Wagner fans.
Let’s see, one afternoon in spring 1962, six of us neighborhood Baby Boomers played a rousing softball game against the Florida Boys Quartet in Radio Station WIRB’s parking lot, while their leader, Les Beasley, was inside radio-talking, hawking their newest album/promoting a Wiregrass Area gospel sing-a-thon.
The Alabama Boys Sextet won the game, using a Florida ball; we were really hardball chaps.
T’was 60 years ago, the dark ages, when Enterprise had a radio station, Jitney Jungle, oyster bars, chilidogs galore, fresh boiled peanuts (in season), an ice plant, Fortune’s Seafood, Marsh’s Snooker & Eat, peanut butter mill, live bait, broasted chicken, West Indies Salad, Reese’s Diner, farm tractor dealers, Bandy’s, a postmark, et al.
People are also reading…
Hmmm.
Monday night, got to listening to absolutely the finest-sounding recordings your scribe’s ears ever beheld, early hits by The Four Seasons, “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “Walk Like a Man.”
We started hearing the group in late ’62, while we still played almost-endless neighborhood baseball/football games in daylight and listened to Art Roberts and Dick Biondi on Chicago’s WLS after dark.
Picked up WLS on a Bulova 6-transistor radio, w/earplug, without too much static between us and the clear-channel, 50,000-watt station heard in 38 states and select parts of Mississippi.
The late David Mitchell, as mentioned here previously, circa 1965 had a 4-track tape player, in his Mustang, delivering unbelievably better-than-a.m.-radio, fuller sounds from Frankie Valli and them, and backing musicians, in the pre-Beatles era when our music was a’changing.
Last month after Carlton Carr’s funeral, your scribe was suddenly neck deep recalling a couple of Saturday mornings in 1958, while spending weekends at the Carr’s farm, with lifelong crony Charles Carr.
We listened to WBAM playing songs such as Sheb Wooley’s “Purple People Eater,” Bobby Darin’s “Splish Splash,” “Volare” sung in Italian by Domenico Modugno, and “Bird Dog” by the Everly Brothers, Don and Phil.
Deep, heavy, thought-provoking music.
Hey, we were in second grade, so what’d we know besides train rides to Elba?
Well, we knew—or later learned—Pony Express began operating on April 3, 1860, and Jesse James was murdered April 3, 1882, the very year John Henry Carmichael and family settled the City of Progress.
We lads developed much of our critical knowledge watching westerns on the three TV channels we had, such as knowing that in the West the only kinds of cowboys were the quick and the dead, the clever and the dumb.
Later in our schooling, we learned American History, a topic always interesting in the House of Adams.
We learned about wars and more wars.
Still learning.
In recent years, with more classified information being released, World War II has become increasingly personal, although it ended four years ahead of your scribe’s arrival.
Or did it?
Last week, Moscow said it would halt negotiations with Japan regarding a post-World War II peace treaty, in response to Tokyo’s escalating sanctions over Russia’s Ukraine invasion.
Glad there wasn’t a test on that …

SEOUL: North Korea blasted the South Korean defence minister on Sunday for “reckless” remarks about Seoul’s ability to strike Pyongyang, warning of retaliation after conducting a record number of weapons tests this year.
South Korean defence minister Suh Wook had said Friday that his army had missiles with “the ability to accurately and quickly hit any target in North Korea”.
The comments drew condemnation from Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and a key policy adviser.
“His reckless and intemperate rhetoric about the ‘preemptive strike’ has further worsened the inter-Korean relations and the military tension on the Korean Peninsula,“ she said according to official North Korean news agency KCNA.
“South Korea may face a serious threat owing to the reckless remarks made by its Defence Minister... South Korea should discipline itself if it wants to stave off disaster,“ Kim added.
In a separate statement on Sunday, Pak Jong Chon, secretary of North Korea's ruling party central committee, also warned the South off any military action against Pyongyang.
“Our army will mercilessly direct all its military force into destroying major targets in Seoul,“ he said. Pak did not specify which targets.
North Korea has resumed its sanctions-breaking weapons tests with an unprecedented blitz this year, last month firing its first intercontinental ballistic missile at full range since 2017.
Long-range and nuclear tests were paused when Kim and then US president Donald Trump engaged in a high-profile bout of diplomacy that subsequently collapsed in 2019. Talks have since stalled.
North Korea will this month mark the 110th anniversary of the birth of founder Kim Il Sung -- the grandfather of current leader Kim, who likes to mark key domestic anniversaries with military parades or launches.
Tensions between both sides are also set to ramp up as South Korea's president-elect Yoon Suk-yeol takes office next month.
During Yoon’s campaign period, he had threatened a pre-emptive strike on the North “if necessary”, and vowed to “teach some manners” to Kim.-AFP

WASHINGTON (AP) — Seven months before he faces a critical test from voters in the midterm elections, President Joe Biden is turning his focus to kitchen-table issues as he struggles to get credit for a recovering economy.
Since Biden took office last year, job growth has been vigorous and steady — as he told the country Friday after the March jobs report showed the addition of 431,000 jobs and the unemployment rate falling to a low 3.6%. But those same remarks were also tempered by his recognition that food and gas prices are too high and inflation is at its worst level in a generation.
For Biden, convincing Americans of the progress made in the economic recovery only serves as a salient reminder of how much further the country has to go.
“Our economy has gone from being on the mend, to being on the move,” Biden said, even as he acknowledged Americans are not ready for a victory lap. “I know that this job is not finished: We need to do more to get prices under control.”
At times, Biden’s bifurcated messaging — like the state of the economy itself — can seem like a jumble of contradictions. It leaves voters to piece together their own opinions — potentially to the president's political peril.
Record wage gains of 5.6% over the past year, for example, run up against consumer prices that have risen at 7.9% annually. Biden's announcement this past week of plans to release a million barrels of oil daily from the U.S. strategic reserve over the next six months was a recognition of the harm that inflation can have not just on the economy but his own policy ambitions.
The economic discontent is reflected in Biden's standing in public opinion polls.
Roughly 7 in 10 people in the United States describe the economy as being in poor shape, while nearly two-thirds disapprove of Biden’s economic leadership, according to a March poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
Administration officials and Biden allies happily point to the job creation data as a sign of accomplishment but they are also perturbed by the lingering economic malaise that threatens him with a historically inhospitable environment for a president’s party in a midterm year.
They have advised Biden to spotlight his work to bring down gas prices and forthcoming efforts to try to curtail an increase in food prices from the war raging in the world’s breadbasket of Ukraine.
It is not just the family budget he is targeting. Biden’s latest message to voters is that he can bring the nation’s finances under control too.
His annual budget request highlighted a $1 trillion decrease in the deficit over 10 years, an effort to claim the mantle of fiscal steward even as the reduction was driven by the expiration of COVID-19 relief programs that are no longer necessary and a new plan for a minimum tax on the nation’s billionaires.
“Responsible fiscal accountability is always a priority with voters," said Democratic pollster John Anzalone, who advised Biden's 2020 campaign. “I think people want fiscal accountability. And I don’t think that’s changed over the years.”
Biden aides also hope he can spend more time focusing on other ways that government is working to make concrete changes in peoples’ lives, with infrastructure investments and the improving economy.
Rep. Annie Kuster, D-N.H., said Wednesday after meeting with Biden that his messaging over the past month has clearly targeted moderate voters.
“ The State of the Union was spot on in terms of what constituents in our districts, purple districts, are talking about right now,” she said outside the White House. She noted Biden's pivot to addressing mental health issues after the pandemic, while also emphasizing that the president plans to run on infrastructure and job creation.
Voters have interpreted the pandemic, the recession, the burst of government spending, the swift recovery and the inflation that followed with a sense of pessimism.
The University of Michigan’s survey of consumer sentiment included a partisan breakdown of numbers that shows growing anxiety among the Democrats whom Biden needs to turn out in 2022. Democrats’ expectations for the economy have been dropping since July, while independents' expectations for the economy are at the lowest level since 2008 when the country was mired in the Great Recession.
Oil and gasoline prices have been a driver of this skepticism. Crude oil prices started the year at roughly $76 a barrel, spiked to about $124 on March 8 after the Russian invasion of Ukraine and appeared to settle just below $100 on Friday after Biden had announced the release from the reserves.
Desmond Lachman, a senior fellow at the conservative American Enterprise Institute, called the market reaction to Biden’s release of petroleum “muted” and noted that “in the short term we are subject to the whims of outside developments like the Russian invasion.”
University of Michigan economist Justin Wolfers, whose work is separate from the sentiment survey, noted there is evidence that the public’s perception of inflation may be worse than actual inflation. That’s because gasoline, food and other items where prices are openly displayed are key drivers of higher prices, possibly giving inflation an outsize psychological impact.
Wolfers has done academic work on the impact oil prices have on gubernatorial elections, but he noted that historical comparisons might not work after the financial and cultural impact of a pandemic that has scrambled expectations.
“Were I Biden, I’d be using some version of a ‘better off than you were four years ago,’” Wolfers said. He said voters need to remember June 2020, when the world was gripped by the pandemic, the government was providing misleading information about the pandemic, the economy was terrible and “you also didn’t know whether you were going to die.”
“How do you feel now? That would be the argument,” he said.

Off-duty deputy killed in parking lot shootout, told wife to run
HOUSTON (AP) - An off-duty Texas deputy sheriff was killed in a shooting on the northern outskirts of Houston when he interrupted three men apparently trying to steal the catalytic converter from his vehicle, authorities said.
Deputy Darren Almendarez, 51, was fatally shot Thursday night in a grocery store parking lot, according to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.
Two of the suspects were shot and wounded during an exchange of gunfire with Almendarez and were hospitalized Friday in custody, Gonzalez said.
Joshua Stewart, 23, and Fredarius Clark, 19, are charged with capital murder, according to court documents. Clark remained hospitalized Friday in stable condition, while Stewart was discharged and booked into Harris County Jail, said Senior Deputy Thomas Gilliland. It was unclear from court documents if they had attorneys.
A third person, believed to be a male teenager, fled the scene and was being sought.
Gonzalez said Almendarez had been shopping with his wife to buy groceries for a Friday cookout for Almendarez’s sister, whose birthday was Thursday.
“We’re tired that people aren’t even safe to go out to the grocery store. This is a cop. This is a cop that’s just out with his family. It could be any one of us — and it happened to be him,” Gonzalez told reporters.
Almendarez told his wife, who was not injured, to run away before he was shot, Gonzales said.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott offered prayers for Almendarez’s family in a statement Friday.
“Deputy Darren Almendarez lost his life while answering the call to serve and protect his fellow Texans, and this tragedy is a heartbreaking reminder of the sacrifices our law enforcement officers make both on and off duty,” Abbott said.

How to figure your capital gains tax bite so the IRS doesn’t zap you
Dear Liz: We had big capital gains this year, and we owe taxes plus a penalty for not paying estimated taxes. Is there a way to plan ahead for taxes since every year is different regarding gains or losses? I know one option is to just pay estimated taxes quarterly based on the previous year’s gains. Apparently the mutual fund companies don’t automatically withhold the taxes.
Answer: Our tax system is “pay as you go,” which means the IRS expects you to pay taxes as you earn or receive income. If you fail to do so and your tax bill is more than $1,000, you may face penalties.
As you rightly note, though, you won’t know what your total capital gains or losses will be until year’s end. You wouldn’t want to pay taxes on a big gain one quarter only to have a big loss the following quarter. You can avoid the penalties by making sure your withholding and estimated tax payments equal at least 100% of the total tax you paid in the previous tax year if your income is $150,000 or less. If your income is over $150,000, your payments and withholding should equal at least 110% of last year’s taxes.
The alternative is to pay at least 90% of the tax you’ll owe on your estimated income for the current year. A tax pro can help you figure out how much you need to pay as well as offer tips for reducing your tax bill.

When institutions won’t go paperless
Dear Liz: I have for years insisted on being paperless, not only for credit card statements and utility bills but also for tax documents such as the 1099-INT and 1099-DIV. My problem is that I receive income from two lifetime annuities and those of course generate 1099-R forms each year, which are mailed to me. I have requested to receive those as PDFs from the companies that execute those annuities, and they claim they cannot do so and are not required to. Are they right, or is there some federal regulation I can quote to force the issue?
Answer: The idea that a business can’t generate an electronic form for a customer is a little ridiculous, but there’s not much you can do to force these companies to get with the times.
The IRS requires that any person or entity that files more than 250 information returns — 1099s, W-2s and other forms that report potentially taxable income — do so electronically. But that requirement applies only to forms being sent to the IRS, says Mark Luscombe, principal analyst for Wolters Kluwer Tax & Accounting. There’s no requirement that such forms be issued electronically to individuals.
Which is unfortunate, since as you know getting forms electronically is much safer than having your private financial information sent through the mail. Since these companies are so insistent on clinging to paper, consider sending a letter — certified mail, return receipt requested — to the companies’ chief executives requesting that they join the 21st century.
Paying bills electronically is more secure and efficient, helping you avoid credit-dinging late payments. Also: Reasons to open a Roth IRA.
Sorting out trust confusion
Dear Liz: In a recent column you wrote of bypass trusts that “for many people this estate planning tool has outlived its usefulness.” In California, a trust avoids probate. Isn’t avoiding probate a reason to continue with a trust?
Answer: What you’re referring to is a living trust — a revocable (which means changeable) trust created while someone is alive. A bypass trust is irrevocable (which means not changeable) and typically goes into effect when someone dies. To further complicate matters, a living trust or a will can have provisions that create a bypass trust after someone dies.
Living trusts are indeed designed to avoid probate, the court process that otherwise follows death to settle an estate. Living trusts remain useful to many people who live in states where probate can be expensive and prolonged, such as California and Florida. Living trusts are also private, unlike wills, which typically become public record after death, and so are favored by people who want to avoid publicity.
Bypass trusts, on the other hand, were primarily designed to minimize or avoid estate taxes, which are no longer a concern for the vast majority of people. Bypass trusts have a number of disadvantages, so if you have one in your estate plan, you’ll want to consult an experienced estate planning attorney about whether to keep it.

Celtic laid down a huge marker in the title race after moving six points clear of Rangers in the Scottish Premiership table with a 2-1 win at Ibrox.
First-half strikes from Tom Rogic and Cameron Cater-Vickers were ultimately enough to give Ange Postecoglou’s side all three points and condemn their rivals to a first home league defeat of the season.
Ad
It could have all panned out very differently if Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side had managed to build on Aaron Ramsey’s third-minute opener.
Europa League
EL, ECL round-up: Leicester thrash Randers, Celtic dumped out
The Welshman reacted quickest to Ryan Kent’s cross with a brilliant close-range finish past Joe Hart – Rangers’ 100th goal of the season in all competitions.
But that lead was wiped out just four minutes later when Tom Rogic pounced on the rebound after Allan McGregor saved Reo Hatate’s initial strike.
The Australian was looking particularly lively in the first half, and could have added to his tally with another strike which was blocked on this occasion. However, a second Hoops goal did come courtesy of Cameron Carter-Vickers.
- Salah set to sign huge four-year deal at Liverpool - Paper Round
- Manchester United held by Leicester in blow to top four hopes
Van Bronckhorst would be wincing at the woefulness of his side’s defending, as Vickers latched onto a loose ball in the box and saw it take a deflection before beating McGregor.
Celtic had further chances to extend their lead through Anthony Ralston and Liel Abada. The former went on a driving run into the box, only to fire his shot wide.
Rangers then had McGregor to thank for keeping the deficit at one with an outstanding reflex save to push the latter’s shot over the bar.
The result ends the Gers’ seven-match unbeaten run in the league since a 3-0 defeat to Celtic on February 2, and their title hopes are now in tatters.
Whereas this fourth consecutive league win for Celtic has left the Hoops in firm control in the title race.

The Ricketts family has vowed never to participate in a European Super League in a wide-ranging eight-point plan for Chelsea’s future should it succeed in its bid to buy the Blues.
The Chicago Cubs-owning Ricketts are among the four bidders vying to buy Chelsea from Roman Abramovich, with final submissions due on April 11.
Chelsea supporters have voiced concerns over the Ricketts’ candidacy online and staged a small demonstration at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
But bid leaders and siblings Tom and Laura Ricketts have now pledged to protect Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge home, the club’s colours and crest – as well as safeguarding the men’s and women’s teams’ positions at the top of the global game.
The Ricketts family has teamed up with multi-billionaire US investors Ken Griffin and Dan Gilbert for an offer to buy Chelsea understood to be fully funded by cash.
And now the Cubs owners have laid out their vision for Chelsea’s future should they win the race to buy the west London club.
A Ricketts family statement said: “Over the past fortnight, the Ricketts family has met with several Chelsea supporter groups and carefully listened to all their feedback. As we enter the next phase of the process, we are sharing a list of specific commitments that give fans a pivotal role in protecting Chelsea’s heritage and building for future success.
“We will continue to discuss our ambitions for the club with fans and the wider football community in the coming days. We will make no change to the club’s name, badge and crest, or Chelsea blue, without the consent of supporters.
“We will never participate in a European Super League and always protect the integrity and heritage of Chelsea F.C.
“We will commit the resources necessary across all levels of the club to continue winning trophies, including investing in the first team, experienced football leadership and the academy.
“We will put diversity and inclusion at the heart of the club and fight against any form of discrimination or inequality.
“We will create an Advisory Committee with diverse representation to ensure our decisions are informed by: a former men’s and women’s first team player, members of the Chelsea Supporters’ Trust and Chelsea Pitch Owners, and influential community leaders.
“We will explore every option to redevelop Stamford Bridge and do everything in our power to keep playing in this historic stadium.
“We will match the current commitment to Chelsea FC Women and increase the number of women’s matches played at Stamford Bridge.
“We will continue the vital charitable work of the Chelsea Foundation, seeking to use the power of football and sport to motivate, educate and inspire.”
Russian-Israeli billionaire Abramovich put Chelsea up for sale on March 2, amid Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine. The 55-year-old was then sanctioned by the UK Government on March 10, with Downing Street claiming to have proven his links to Vladimir Putin.
Chelsea have been granted a special Government licence to continue operating, though under strict terms. Abramovich cannot profit from Chelsea’s sale, but had already vowed to write off the club’s £1.5billion debt.
LA Dodgers part-owner Todd Boehly and British business titan Jonathan Goldstein, Sir Martin Broughton and Lord Sebastian Coe, and Boston Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca are the other remaining contenders.
The Ricketts family is confident its experience of redeveloping the Cubs’ traditional home Wrigley Field leaves them well-placed to revamp the Stamford Bridge ground. And the Ricketts bid team is understood to have advanced plans for that potential redevelopment of Chelsea’s stadium.
The Ricketts’ bid for Chelsea has been met with fan resistance owing to historic Islamophobic emails from family patriarch Joe Ricketts. Ricketts senior is not on the Chelsea bid, and Tom Ricketts has apologised repeatedly and called those views “abhorrent”, while also forging strong links with Muslim communities in Chicago.
Tom Ricketts declared his “absolute commitment” to diversity and inclusion in a statement on Saturday. Cubs co-chair Laura Ricketts has a prominent role on the Chelsea bid, and is the first openly gay sports franchise owner in the USA, as well as a champion and campaigner for the LGBTQ community.

The South African Communist Party (SACP) has expressed deep concern about the rising, crisis-high unemployment and called for the government to consider maintaining the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant permanently.
The SACP held its last ordinary session of the 14th SACP National Congress Central Committee before it hosted its 15th National Congress in July this year.
SACP general-secretary Dr Blade Nzimande briefed the media on Sunday following the Party’s plenary session.
“We cannot overemphasise the importance of redress in employment creation programmes and interventions. These should include rigorous pursuit co-operatives and small, medium and micro enterprises development, as part of the national imperative to advance, widen and deepen structural economic transformation.
“Instead of terminating the SRD grant at the end of the first quarter of 2022, the government should maintain the grant and consider improving it gradually towards a universal basic income grant, as part of building a comprehensive social security system. This is what the continuing unemployment crisis calls for in the here and now,” Nzimande said.
Strife in ANC ranks of concern to leadership in the run-up to party’s vital regional and provincial conferences
SACP warns ’flat-footed’ ANC it could lose national and provincial elections in 2024
Limpopo SACP calls on NPA to prosecute those implicated in multi-million rand PPE scandal
SACP warns Gauteng ANC of factional battles ahead of regional and provincial conferences
The government introduced the SRD grant at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic following public calls. During that time, in the second quarter of 2020, over 2.2 million jobs were slashed in a jobs-bloodbath, deepening the unemployment crisis.
Nzimande said this year therefore posed particular challenges for the SACP movement with implications for the country, especially the challenge of using its conferences or congresses to take forward the struggle for a better life for all.
He said the single biggest challenge in this regard was to ensure that the SACP did not allow factionalism and narrow accumulation interests to dominate and shape the outcomes of these important platforms.
“Factionalism can only turn our attention away from addressing the material needs of our people.
“The Central Committee still remains strongly of the view that the ANC and the Alliance remain the best hope for our people and for the inclusive economic development of our country,” he said, adding that their Alliance was faced with the task of seeking to unite itself around a common economic transformation programme in the wake of the stubborn persistence of poverty, inequality, unemployment and the associated multiple crises of social.
Nzimande said it was for this reason that the SACP had called for an urgent convening of an Alliance Economic Summit, prior to the ANC policy conference and the beginning of the 15th SACP national congress.
Nzimande said the 15th national congress would undertake a comprehensive political review of the past five years, analyse the current challenges, update its programme and develop its strategic perspectives and tasks for the next five years and beyond.
The SACPs central committee had also received and discussed a political report presented by Nzimande, the State of the Organisation and other secretariat reports, as well as the draft discussion document on the update of its programme, the South African Road to Socialism, and the report on SACP constitutional amendments, among others.
The SACP is expected to officially release the updated party programme discussion document – the South African Struggle for Socialism – on Monday.
The SACP is also expected to officially release other discussion documents in the next few weeks.
These will include discussion documents on energy security, climate change and environment degradation, the struggle against patriarchy, building a left popular front, the economic situation and the struggle for the transformation of the financial sector.

Kremlin warns West: rouble-for-gas scheme is the 'prototype'
President Vladimir Putin's rouble payment scheme for natural gas is the prototype that the world's largest country will extend to other major exports because the West has sealed the decline of the US dollar by freezing Russian assets, the Kremlin said.
Russia's economy is facing the gravest crisis since the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union after the United States and its allies imposed crippling sanctions due to Putin's Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine.
Putin's main economic response so far was an order on 23 March for Russian gas exports to be paid in roubles, however the scheme allows purchasers to pay in the contracted currency which is then exchanged into roubles by Gazprombank.
"It is the prototype of the system," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russia's Channel One state television about the rouble for gas payment system.
"I have no doubt that it will be extended to new groups of goods," Peskov said. He gave no time frame for such a move.
Peskov said that the West's decision to freeze $300 billion of the central bank's reserves was a "robbery" that would have already accelerated a move away from reliance on the U.S. dollar and the euro as global reserve currencies.
The Kremlin, he said, wanted a new system to replace the contours of the Bretton Woods financial architecture established by the Western powers in 1944.
"It is obvious that - even if this is currently a distant prospect - that we will come to a some new system - different from the Bretton Woods system," Peskov said.
The West's sanctions on Russia, he said, had "accelerated the erosion of confidence in the dollar and euro."
Putin has said the "special military operation" in Ukraine is necessary because the United States was using Ukraine to threaten Russia and Moscow had to defend against the persecution of Russian-speaking people by Ukraine.
Ukraine has dismissed Putin's claims of persecution and says it is fighting an unprovoked war of aggression.
Russian officials have repeatedly said the West's attempt to isolate one of the world's biggest producers of natural resources is an irrational act that will lead to soaring prices for consumers and tip Europe and the United States into recession.
Russia has long sought to reduce dependence on the US currency, though its main exports - oil, gas and metals - are priced in dollars on global markets. Globally, the dollar is by far the most traded currency, followed by the euro, yen and British pound.

Editor’s note: Annie Lane is on vacation. This column originally appeared in 2019.
Dear Annie: I am trying to decide if I should print out the following letter and give it to my wife. What do you think?
Dear Leigh:
My goal here is not to blame or accuse or criticize. I just want to find a way to better communicate. Please don’t get angry or frustrated or feel like I am trying to attack you because that is not the case.
The area I am writing about today is intimate relations. We have talked about them before and I’ve really tried to provide the requested time, space and distance since last summer. Unfortunately, I’ve not seen any real improvements in this area. My purpose is not to criticize or cast blame or anything more than to clear the air and understand needs and expectations. We have virtually no sex life. I have been the “initiator” in every encounter over the last few months. In the past year, you’ve had three, possibly four overnight sleepovers at the homes of various female friends, leaving your husband and small child at home.
My bottom line is that I feel like we are roommates who sleep in the same bed and raise a child together. We seem to live our own lives other than that. My weight gain hasn’t helped, and I know that, too.
At any rate, regardless of what the answers are, I really need you to be clear and honest with me, with respect to whether you have ever fulfilled your physical needs elsewhere since we got married 14 years ago, or even if you wanted to but didn’t follow through. Have you been thinking about it? If so, and you’ve yet to take action, is this something you want to explore? These questions keep me up at night. We need to talk about these things, no matter what the answers are.
— Mitch
Dear Mitch: While it’s important to have eye-to-eye heart-to-hearts with your spouse, letters can be a great way to broach sensitive subjects that might otherwise arouse defensiveness. The format gives each partner space to organize and communicate his or her thoughts and feelings. So, yes, give your wife this letter, along with a day to herself to read, absorb and articulate a response.

Applebee’s franchisee worker fired over leaked email
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) - Applebee’s has confirmed that an employee of a Missouri-based franchisee has been fired after sending an email speculating that high gas prices and the end of pandemic stimulus money would force employees to work longer hours for lower pay.
“This is the opinion of an individual, not Applebee’s,” Kevin Carrol, Applebee’s chief operations officer, said in a statement, adding that the franchisee terminated the midlevel worker. The employee didn’t work directly for Applebee’s.
Issues arose after someone shared the email last month with Jake Holcomb, who was the manager of an Applebee’s restaurant in Lawrence, Kansas. He quit soon after he read the email, which said: “As inflation continues to climb and gas prices continue to go up that means more hours employees will need to work to maintain their current level of living.”
Holcomb said he printed a couple dozen copies and left them where servers could find them, the Springfield News-Leader reported.
“Then, I gave everyone in the restaurant their food for free and we just left; we didn’t even close the store,” he said, adding that he also shared the email with a friend who posted a screenshot to Reddit on March 21.
The restaurant remained closed the next day and the email began circulating widely online.

Ukraine demands new Russia sanctions over 'massacre'
Moscow has previously denied Ukrainian allegations that it has targeted civilians or carried out possible war crimes. Kuleba called on the International Criminal Court to visit Bucha and other towns around Kyiv as soon as possible to gather evidence.
- Country:
- Ukraine
Ukraine's foreign minister called on the G7 on Sunday to impose "devastating" new sanctions on Moscow and accused Russia of carrying out a deliberate "massacre" in the town of Bucha outside Kyiv.
Ukraine said on Saturday its forces had retaken all areas around Kyiv and the mayor in Bucha, a liberated town 37 km (23 miles) northwest of the capital, said that 300 residents had been killed by the Russian army. "We are still gathering and looking for bodies, but the number has already gone into the hundreds," Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said, according to his ministry.
"Dead bodies lie on the streets. They killed civilians while staying there and when they were leaving these villages and towns," Kuleba said. Russia has so far not commented publicly on the allegations. Moscow has previously denied Ukrainian allegations that it has targeted civilians or carried out possible war crimes.
Kuleba called on the International Criminal Court to visit Bucha and other towns around Kyiv as soon as possible to gather evidence. "I urge the International Criminal Court and international organizations to send their missions to Bucha and other liberated towns and villages of the Kyiv region, in cooperation with Ukrainian law enforcement agencies, to thoroughly collect all evidence of Russian war crimes," the ministry quoted him as saying.
"If I used to say that I will make every effort to bring the perpetrators to justice, now I am convinced that this is a matter of my life, which I will do until my last breath until they are all held accountable," he said.

The total doses administered now stand at 24.5 million
coronavirus2 days ago
The UAE has administered 11,488 doses of the Covid-19 vaccine in the past 24 hours.
The country's Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP) said the total doses administered now stand at 24,554,986 million.
This takes the rate of doses to 248.27 doses per 100 people.
Indian expats in the UAE are hailing the move where fully vaccinated passengers in the country do not need to take a Covid PCR test while travelling to India.
Earlier, only passengers who held a vaccination certificate issued in India were eligible for the PCR test exemption.
The UAE has been added to India’s list of countries/regions from where vaccination schedule completion certificate is recognised. Fully vaccinated passengers flying to the UAE also don’t need a pre-travel PCR test
Brazil loosened its pandemic restrictions for international travellers Saturday, ending its Covid-19 test requirement for vaccinated passengers and scrapping a lengthy health questionnaire.
Travellers will now only be required to present proof of vaccination on arrival in the country, according to new regulations published late Friday in the government gazette.

Amid talk here that the Aam Aadmi Party tried to contact disgruntled leaders of the ruling Congress and opposition BJP in Chhattisgarh, state Health Minister T S Singh Deo said it is difficult for him to think beyond the grand old party as five generations of his family have been associated with it.
During an informal interaction with media persons at Raipur Press Club here on Saturday, Singh Deo did not deny that the Arvind Kejriwal-led party had contacted him.
“I haven't met Arvind Kejriwal ji. But it is also true that in politics, a lot of people remain in contact and they also make contact. It is not like people would not have contacted me. But I told them that five generations of my family were associated with the Congress and I cannot even think beyond it. I have a lot of respect for Sonia Ji and Rahul,'' Singh Deo said.
“I will also never join the BJP. I don't want to be in such politics. A party with which I have ideological differences, I cannot work there as a public representative,” he added.
The Congress government in Chhattisgarh had seen strife last year amid speculation of leadership change centered on a reported ''power sharing formula'' under which Bhupesh Baghel and Singh Deo were supposed to share the CM's tenure.
Baghel had gone on to become CM when the Congress unseated the BJP in the 2018 Assembly polls, though some sections of the party have routinely claimed that, as per the agreement at the time, Singh Deo was supposed to get the top post after two-and-half years.

6 dead, 10 hurt in Sacramento shooting, police say
SACRAMENTO, Calif (AP) - Police in California are searching for at least one suspect in connection with a mass shooting early Sunday in downtown Sacramento that claimed six lives and left 10 other people injured.
Sacramento Police Chief Kathy Lester said at a news conference that police were patrolling the area at about 2 a.m. when they heard gunfire. When they arrived at the scene, they found a large crowd gathered on the street and six people dead. Another 10 either took themselves or were transported to hospitals. No information was given on their conditions.
Authorities don't know whether one or more suspects were involved and are asking for the public's help in identifying who is responsible. Lester did not give specifics on the type of gun used.
This is "a very complex and complicated scene," she said. Lester issued a plea to the public, asking for witnesses or anyone with recordings of the incident to contact police.

Shortly after the shooting, video was posted on Twitter that showed people running through the street amid the sound of rapid gunfire. Video showed multiple ambulances at the scene.
Residents were asked to avoid the area, which is packed with restaurants and bars that leads to the Golden One Center, where the Sacramento Kings play basketball.
Berry Accius, a community activist, said he came to the scene shortly after the shooting happened.
"The first thing I saw was like victims. I saw a young girl with a whole bunch of blood in her body, a girl taking off glass from her, a young girl screaming saying, ‘They killed my sister.’ A mother running up, ‘Where’s my son, has my son been shot?’" he said.
Kay Harris, 32, said she was asleep when one of her family members called to say they thought her brother had been killed. She said she thought he was at London, a nightclub at 1009 10th Street.
Harris said she has been to the club a few times and described it as a place for "the younger crowd."
Police have the streets around the club closed, with yellow police tape fluttering in the early morning breeze. She has spent the morning circling the block waiting for news.

"Very much so a senseless violent act," she said.

The former president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko has issued a video address to the international community concerning mass killings of civilian population by Russian invaders.
After the city of Bucha, Kyiv region, had been liberated from Russian troops, hundreds of killed locals were found on the streets.
Poroshenko says Ukraine is waiting for the decisive and, most importantly, immediate reaction of the civilized world.
He demands to convene an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council and to present there the inhumane facts of the genocide of the Ukrainian people by the Putin regime.
The former president urges to immediately send an international mission to Ukraine to study and record the facts of the genocide. The facts of mass killings should become object of International Criminal Court investigation.
Poroshenko also demands new sanctions, which must totally isolate Russia politically and economically.

Tiffany Chen remembers sitting on a plastic bucket turned upside down over a drain that was spewing wastewater into the kitchen of the Austin-based cookie-delivery company she had co-founded. It was 2001, torrential rain was overwhelming the city's drainage and sewer system, and Tiffany was trying to do whatever she could to keep the flood level from reaching the electrical outlets. She and her business partner and now husband, Leon, had begun their company out of an apartment as college kids just two years earlier, and this small kitchen, in a storefront they shared with a potato restaurant called Spudnik, was their first official place of business. The two of them had been working day and night since graduation to meet the surging local demand for their service, but they hadn't managed yet to break out of the cycle of doing almost everything themselves--including flood control.

NEW YORK (AP) — Could it be the curse of the Scottish play? Daniel Craig's return to Broadway in a new version of “Macbeth” has been temporarily halted after the actor contracted COVID-19.
Wednesday's matinee and evening performances were canceled when the James Bond actor tested positive. In a tweet late Saturday night, the show said all performances were canceled through Thursday “due to the detection of a limited number of positive covid test results within the company.”
Craig stars in a revival of Williams Shakespeare's tragedy, with Ruth Negga making her Broadway debut playing Lady Macbeth.
“Macbeth” is playing the Lyceum Theatre, with an opening set for April 28. Tony Award-winner Sam Gold is directing.
According to folklore, “Macbeth” was cursed from the beginning, when a coven of witches objected to Shakespeare using real incantations and put a curse on the play. Other productions have been plagued with accidents.
Craig was last on Broadway in a 2013 revival of Harold Pinter's “Betrayal” opposite his wife, Rachel Weisz, and directed by Mike Nichols. Craig also starred opposite Hugh Jackman in 2009's “A Steady Rain.” Gold directed Craig in a 2016 off-Broadway production of “Othello” alongside David Oyelowo.
Other high-profile shows on Broadway have had to cancel shows due to their lead actor's contracting the virus, including both “The Music Man” leads, Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster.

Iga Swiatek beat Naomi Osaka 6-4 6-0 on Sunday to confirm her status as women’s tennis’ new No.1 player after Ashleigh Barty’s sudden and surprise retirement.
The 2020 French Open champion, 20, has won all three 1000 Masters tournaments in 2022 and a 17-match unbeaten streak has taken the Pole to the No.1 spot.
After dismantling a resurgent Osaka in 79 minutes, Swiatek said: “I just feel really satisfied and fulfilled and also proud of myself,” after she won herself $1,231,245 and 1000 tournament points.
“I feel like I have got to celebrate because I don’t know how long I can keep up with this streak.”
On the way to becoming the best women’s tennis player in the world, she also made history as she became just the fourth player ever to win both the Indian Wells and Miami WTA 1000 Masters tournaments in the same season. Swiatek joins Stefanie Graf (1994 and 1996), Kim Clijsters (2005) and Victoria Azarenka (2016).
Swiatek added: “I feel pretty privileged that I can be amongst those players because I wouldn’t even dream of it a few years ago.
“I knew it was going to be tough playing these two tournaments in a row. I realised at the end it’s just another match and I took it to ep by step.”
Barty retired with 7,980 points, miles ahead of second-placed Swiatek on 5,776 points but the Australian’s abrupt departure means the 20-year-old Pole must ascend to the No.1 spot after turning professional in 2016.
In taking the giant leap to the No.1 spot, Swiatek revealed she has learned more about herself. “I learned a lot about myself, that I can keep going, and I don’t need to feel like 100 per cent on points to win matches against great players.
“I can trust myself a little bit more right now. I used that streak to have more confidence, and also the ranking.”
The next phase of the season is clay, which has proven to be her best playing surface, which means the chasing players may have to wait till June to have any chance of upstaging her for the No.1 spot.

(NEXSTAR) — Cody Rhodes, one of the founders of WWE’s top competitor All Elite Wrestling, made a surprise appearance at WrestleMania at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas defeating former world champion Seth Rollins. The 36-year-old son of legendary wrestler Dusty Rhodes ignited the crowd of more than 70,000 fans during the first of two nights of WrestleMania action.
Rhodes versus Rollins was a story of which athlete could outdo the other. While beating up his opponent throughout the match, Rollins regularly yelled “welcome back” as if to mock Rhodes. It looked as if Rhodes’ return wouldn’t have a happy ending after Rollins powerbombed him against the barricade separating the ringside area from the crowd and then delivered an inverted superplex from the top rode. However, a resilient Rhodes continued to battle back throughout.
In the end, Rhodes hit three of his signature Cross Rhodes maneuvers and a Dusty Rhodes tribute elbow for the victory. Based on the reaction from the crowd, it’ll be viewed as one of the best matches of the night.
WWE CEO Vince McMahon earlier this week told Rollins that he’d hand pick an opponent for him at the year’s biggest show and the opponent wouldn’t be revealed until moments before the match. Rollins had been teasing possibilities like John Cena, Bill Goldberg, Scott Steiner, and Rob Van Dam on his Twitter account throughout the week. Most wrestling insiders predicted Rhodes would be the opponent.
“The American Nightmare” last appeared in WWE back in 2016. He chose to leave the world’s largest sports entertainment company after expressing frustration over how he was being used creatively. In the years that followed, Rhodes set out his own path becoming one of America’s most popular independent wrestlers before helping launching rival group AEW with Jacksonville Jaguars co-owner Tony Khan. In AEW, Rhodes both wrestled and served as an Executive Vice President. He and his wife shocked the wrestling world earlier this year when they announced their departure from the group.
As soon as that happened, speculation about a return to WWE began.
From son of Dusty to Stardust
Rhodes began his wrestling career in a WWE developmental territory in 2006. Roughly a year later, he’d make his debut on WWE’s RAW program and begin wrestling against the sport’s biggest stars.
Rhodes would eventually form a group alongside other wrestlers with famous fathers: Randy Orton and Ted DiBiase. “Legacy” is where Rhodes experienced the majority of his success in WWE. Though still young in his career, he appeared set on a path to become one of the company’s top performers.
In the years that followed, he never quite broke through the glass ceiling to become a headlining act. He won the Intercontinental Championship on two occasions and tried a variety of character changes – eventually transforming into Stardust — a character similar to Goldust, who was played by his half-brother Dustin.
While Rhodes fully engrained himself into the colorful comic book character, it wasn’t the long-term direction he wanted for his career. Shortly after WrestleMania 32, also held at AT&T Stadium, Rhodes asked to be released from his contract.
Changing the wrestling game
After leaving WWE, Rhodes posted to social media a list of what he hoped to accomplish outside of the company. In the years that followed, he’d fulfill many of those things — wrestling for Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling, Impact Wrestling, and numerous other promotions.
He eventually hosted his own pay per view wrestling show with The Young Bucks, Matt and Nick Jackson, in 2018. “All In” was the largest independent professional wrestling show produced over the last two decades selling more than 10,000 tickets at the Sears Centre right outside Chicago.
The success of the show sparked the launch of All Elite Wrestling months later under Khan. Rhodes was a top executive as well as one of the featured performers. The new wrestling promotion found immediate success and eventually signed a television deal with WarnerMedia bringing primetime professional wrestling back to TBS and TNT.
During his time in AEW, Rhodes was the company’s inaugural TNT champion in the ring and led many community-based initiatives outside of it. He was also featured on the reality show “Rhodes to the Top” and competition series “Go-Big Show.”
Over the last year, Rhodes’ appearances in AEW were less consistent and rumors floated around about a power struggle behind the scenes. He had been silent about his future following his February 2022 departure from the company.

More than 200 arrests made at climate change protests
More than 200 people have been arrested as climate change activists enter a third day of protests at oil terminals.
Warwickshire Police said the force has made 54 arrests for offences including criminal damage, obstructing the highway and public order in relation to the ongoing protest at Kingsbury Oil Terminal.
In Essex, officers have arrested a total of 155 people following protests in the Thurrock district.
Activists from Just Stop Oil have been blocking access to oil terminals over the last three days, demanding that the Government stops new oil and gas projects.
Warwickshire Police said on Sunday that a “significant operation remains ongoing” at Kingsbury, with officers working to bring the situation to a resolution “as soon as possible”.
Assistant Chief Constable Ben Smith, who is leading the operation, said: “We fully acknowledge every person’s right to engage in lawful protest; however, when that protest becomes unlawful and disproportionate in nature, we will act to protect the rights of others.
“Due to the nature and scale of the policing operation, a large number of officers have been deployed over the last two days.
“Although policing services have been effectively maintained across the rest of the county, I am hopeful the situation can be brought to a swift conclusion so my officers can return to protecting the communities of Warwickshire.”
Essex Police said 63 arrests were made on Friday, 57 on Saturday and a further 35 on Sunday, for a variety of offences.
Activists from Just Stop Oil said on Saturday that they had blocked access to the Titan Truck Park and revealed a secret underground network of tunnels at the Navigator and Grays oil terminals.
Assistant Chief Constable Rachel Nolan said: “The operational and logistical challenges my officers have faced in the last 48 hours have been exceptional.
“We continue to work today with our key partners to bring these protests to a swift and safe conclusion, and to minimise community impact.
“A priority has been to reopen the sites disrupted by these protests, and I am pleased with the progress we are making.
“I want to once again be clear: policing is not anti-protest, but we must intervene where there is a risk to life or where laws are being broken, and we will do so.”
Arrests have been made elsewhere too in recent days.
The Metropolitan Police arrested 14 activists who broke into a facility at Bedfont Road in Staines, Surrey, and West Midlands Police arrested six people at a terminal in Tyburn, Birmingham.
Hampshire Police said a number of protests took place on Friday at Hythe Terminal in New Road in Hythe and at BP in Hamble Lane and Copse Lane, and officers made four arrests.
Two people were arrested on suspicion of aggravated trespass while two others were held on suspicion of aggravated trespass and failing to comply with conditions.
The force said on Saturday that all protesters have since left the area and the active police presence across both sites has been stood down.

A family-owned New Jersey deli is gearing up for a long-awaited reopening, originally reported by NJ Advance Media.
Hobby's Delicatessen, in Newark, announced in an April Fool's joke "We are open... ing soon."
The Kosher-style deli — whose website says it was "established before you were born" — was bought by Sam Brummer in 1962. His two sons, Michael and Marc, later took over.
As detailed in NJ.com's report, the deli closed nearly 30 years ago after being ravaged by a fire. The Brummer brothers say they're taking the lessons they learned from that reopening and applying them to this one.
The Brummers want to make sure everything is in place when they reopen following renovations and Hobby's pandemic shutdown to meet the customers' needs.
"An old-fashioned Jewish delicatessen, Hobby’s still pickles its own legendary corned beef in fifty-gallon stainless steel vats, and its potato pancakes are a must-have," its website says.
"Soups are hearty and, of course, homemade. But Hobby’s is much more than a place to enjoy hard-to-find top-quality Eastern-European delicacies - Hobby’s offers a wonderful line of freshly-made salads, fresh fruits, and daily specials such as gazpacho, fresh salmon, chicken fajita wraps and other, more modern fare."
Hobby's is expected to reopen sometime this month.

When Tiny Dinosaur started recording its debut full-length album in early 2020, the New Orleans folk band had high hopes. The plan was to record the album, get everything ready and then hit the road for a tour in May and June, new calling card in hand.
Of course, the pandemic and the lockdowns of spring 2020 threw those plans out the window — and that, the band says, might have been for the best.
“It pretty much stopped everything dead, which was definitely a tough pill to swallow,” says Josey Krafczynski, who sings and plays acoustic guitar. “It was a weird thing, but I think it ended up being for the better. This was my first time recording a full album and releasing it and figuring out how much goes into that.”
Looking back, they wouldn’t have had time to do half the things they planned — like preparing a vinyl release — before setting out on tour, Krafczynski says. Plus, the music benefitted. The band could approach recording with more patience and try new things.
“We have how we play these songs when we play them live, and I thought it was going to be a relatively straightforward process — we just go in, we track the things we play, we mix it and that’s it,” Krafczynski says. “Something that I wasn’t really anticipating but ended up being a cool aspect was, ‘Oh, what if we added this little texture here that we don’t typically add? Or this weird Hammond sound in the background?’ Just experimenting with adding different layers, I think that was one of the big things we would have lost if we tried to rush out the album.”
The Graduates participated in a residency at the Contemporary Arts Center last year, and they have two presentations April 8-9.
Now, after more than two years of recording at UNO Studios, Tiny Dinosaur’s debut album is ready. The band will release “Songs for the Mass Extinction Event” on Friday, April 8, with a show at 7 p.m. at the Broadside. Bon Bon Vivant and Sam Doores also will perform.
Along with Krafczynski, Tiny Dinosaur includes banjo and melodica player Dusky Waters, violist Trilly Nelson, Conner McCready on electric guitar, percussionist Layla Sutton and bassist Dylan James. Waters and Nelson also sing, and the three-part harmonies with Krafczynski are a beautiful force on “Songs for the Mass Extinction Event.”
Krafczynski, who moved from Pittsburgh to New Orleans in 2016, first performed solo as Tiny Dinosaur & The Gravity Wells in 2017. Krafczynski soon after started playing music with Waters — they met in a dodgeball league — and got to know more musicians through friends who then became part of the band.
A couple of Tiny Dinosaur EPs were recorded in the past, but “Songs for the Mass Extinction Event” is the first release to feature the full, current lineup.
While folk is an easy descriptor for the new album, it’s also deceptive. Tiny Dinosaur mixes in a number of influences, from New Orleans rhythm and blues to country and punk, with lush effect.
Lyrically, Tiny Dinosaur employs classic folk storytelling — but those stories are about ancient rituals, asking witches for help, and goblins who sneak in during the night to rearrange the vinyl records on the shelf. The album opens with “Carnation,” a song about striving for more that plays out as a conversation between a group of weeds jealous of carnations growing across the pond.
“I’m definitely the folk guy that grew up listening to like James Taylor and that kind of stuff. But the fantasy aspect of it came from always loving fables and mythology, particularly anything that has to do with weird creatures or spirits,” Krafczynski says. “I don’t want to write a song about just a straight breakup, but what if I told it through this kind of fantastical, almost allegory-type thing?”
Tiny Dinosaur performs at 7 p.m. Friday, April 8, at the Broadside. Tickets are $20 at broadsidenola.com. Find the band’s new album at tinydinosaurnola.com.
In-person and online events coming up this week in New Orleans.

Estelle Harris dead; ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘Toy Story’ actor was 93
NEW YORK - Estelle Harris, who hollered her way into TV history as George Costanza’s short-fused mother on "Seinfeld" and voiced Mrs. Potato Head in the "Toy Story" franchise, has died. She was 93 years old.
As middle-class matron Estelle Costanza, Harris put a memorable stamp on her recurring role in the smash 1990s sitcom. With her high-pitched voice and humorously overbearing attitude, she was an archetype of maternal indignation.
Trading insults and absurdities with her on-screen husband, played by Jerry Stiller, Harris helped create a parental pair that would leave even a psychiatrist helpless to do anything but hope they’d move to Florida — as their son, played by Jason Alexander, fruitlessly encouraged them to do.
Harris’ agent Michael Eisenstadt confirmed the actor’s death in Palm Desert, California, on Saturday evening.

Viewers of all backgrounds would tell her she was just like their own mothers, Harris often said.
"She is the mother that everybody loves, even though she’s a pain in the neck," she told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in 1998.

The career-defining role came after decades on stage and screen. Born April 22, 1928, in New York City, Harris grew up in the city and later in the Pittsburgh suburb of Tarentum, Pennsylvania, where her father owned a candy store. She started tapping her comedic talents in high school productions where she realized she "could make the audience get hysterical," as she told People magazine in 1995.
After the nine-season run of "Seinfeld" ended in 1998, Harris continued to appear on stage and screen. She voiced Mrs. Potato Head in the 1999 animated blockbuster "Toy Story 2" and played the recurring character Muriel in the popular Disney Channel sitcom "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody," among other roles.
She had stopped pursuing show business when she married in the early 1950s but resumed acting in amateur groups, dinner theater and commercials as her three children grew ("I had to get out of diapers and bottles and blah-blah baby talk," she told People). Eventually, she began appearing in guest roles on TV shows including the legal comedy "Night Court," and in films including director Sergio Leone’s 1984 gangland epic "Once Upon a Time in America."
Her "Seinfeld" debut came in one of the show’s most celebrated episodes: the Emmy Award-winning 1992 "The Contest," in which the four central characters challenge each other to refrain from doing what is artfully described only as "that."
Harris would go on to appear in dozens more episodes of the "show about nothing." She seethed over snubbed paella, screeched about George’s hanky-panky in the parental bed and laid out the spread for screen husband Frank’s idiosyncratic holiday, Festivus.

"Estelle is a born performer," Stiller told The Record of Bergen County, N.J., in 1998. "I just go with what I got, and she goes back at me the same way."
Still, Harris saw a sympathetic undertone to her character, often saying Estelle fumed out frustration at her bumbling mate and scheming slacker of a son.
Viewers, she told an interviewer in 1998, "just look at her as being funny, cute and a loudmouth. But it’s not how I play her. I play her with misery underneath."
She is survived by her three children, three grandsons, and a great grandson.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Adam Jarchow says he's tired of “woke liberalism" and would like to go hunting with Kyle Rittenhouse. Eric Toney keeps telling people he knows how to put criminals in prison.
Jarchow and Toney are the leading candidates among Republicans vying in the August primary to challenge Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul this fall. Voters' pick could reveal much about whether the GOP faithful want Wisconsin's top cop to focus on cleaning up the streets or pushing back against Democratic policies.
Toney has been the Fond du Lac County district attorney since 2021. Jarchow, a former legislator, is a private practice attorney. It's the first statewide race for both. Jarchow has focused on national issues, while Toney has played up his law enforcement credentials.
The Aug. 9 primary is still months off, but Jarchow has the early fundraising advantage, bringing in $200,000 in a matter of weeks and more than doubling Toney's take over the last nine months of 2021.
" (Jarchow) has certainly brought the energy," said Republican campaign strategist Zack Roday, who said he's neutral in the race. “He's like a dog on a bone . . . (Toney) has a hell of a resume and he's a nice person, too, but his campaign is one from the past.”
Another Republican, Chippewa Falls attorney Karen Mueller, joined the race in late March. Mueller, who sued in 2020 seeking to decertify Joe Biden's victory in Wisconsin, said she wants to be the attorney general so she can investigate allegations that hospitals are murdering COVID-19 patients and that vaccines are “frankenshots” that could kill or injure people. The vaccines have been proven safe and effective.
Jarchow represented Polk County in the Assembly from 2015 to 2019. He sponsored bills to prevent condo and homeowner associations from prohibiting residents from flying Wisconsin and U.S. flags; to allow homeowners to appeal their property tax assessments even if they refuse to let an assessor in; to eliminate the minimum age for bear hunting; and to end bans on deer baiting and feeding in counties with chronic wasting disease.
He chose not to seek a third term, saying at the time that “politicians, like diapers, should be changed often, and for the same reason.”
After he left the Legislature, Jarchow created an online news hub for conservatives called Empower Wisconsin. The site is still active, with stories criticizing Democratic Gov. Tony Evers and Ketanji Brown Jackson, Biden's nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court.
Jarchow has never tried a criminal case. State law doesn't require an attorney general to have prosecutorial experience.
Jarchow's top campaign aides include Joe Fadness, who advised Scott Walker during Walker's years as governor. Jarchow's campaign has made heavy use of Twitter messaging that often attacks Democrats on national issues.
“Woke liberalism destroys everything,” Jarchow tweeted March 20. “In November, help is on the way!”
A week earlier, he tweeted his interest in hunting with Rittenhouse, the Illinois man who shot three demonstrators during unrest in Kenosha in 2020, and ripping “the media trash” and “totally unjust prosecution” that followed. Rittenhouse pleaded self-defense and was acquitted of multiple charges last year.
Jarchow has also branded state government “the Madison Swamp," criticized transgender athletes as hurting female athletes and blamed Biden and Evers for inflation.
He has attacked Evers, too, for issuing a stay-at-home order as the COVID-19 pandemic was starting and has hammered Toney for charging 10 people with violating the order. Toney eventually dropped those charges.
Toney has run a more moderate campaign so far, with longtime strategist Darrin Schmitz — who worked for Gov. Tommy Thompson in the 1990s and on George W. Bush's presidential campaign in Wisconsin — as a key adviser.
Instead of delving deeply into national politics, Toney has played up his nine years as district attorney and endorsements from police unions and groups. His message: Conservatives need to elect a prosecutor, not a politician, to the attorney general's office.
“I'm focused on the issues the attorney general can actually deal with. If somebody wants to run for a different office they should do that,” Toney said in a telephone interview. “If you're running for attorney general and public safety isn't your main issue, you shouldn't be running."
He explained his decision to drop charges over alleged violations of the stay-at-home order by saying they were filed soon after the order was imposed. It became clear as time passed that police were educating people on the order rather than arresting them, he said.
On another issue critical to many in the Republican base, Toney pointed out that he charged five people with voter fraud in February, accusing them of illegally using post office boxes as their voter registration addresses. Both Toney and Jarchow have acknowledged Biden is the president but each has said they would investigate allegations of election fraud as attorney general.
Jarchow's fundraising advantage shows his message is resonating better with the conservative base, said GOP strategist Mark Graul, who also said he's neutral and uninvolved in the race.
“It's hard to predict (the primary winner) in March," Graul said. “No one is paying attention except insiders. (But) there's a higher degree of comfort level with a lot of traditional Republican donors with Jarchow than with Toney. Jarchow has shown he can get the resources to put together a credible campaign and the jury's still out on whether Toney can do the same.”

Following a lap of the track by the historic Ferrari 348 Challenge, the star of the early editions of the Ferrari Challenge, which debuted in 1993, the Trofeo Pirelli drivers fought a heated battle right from the start. Doriane Pin (Scuderia Niki - Iron Lynx), after taking pole position with an extraordinary 1:43.608, beating her closest pursuer by nine tenths, led throughout, crossing the line in first place and announcing herself as a star of the season. The young Finn Luka Nurmi (Formula Racing), the Trofeo Pirelli 2021 world champion, had to settle for second, while John Wartique (FML – D2P) took third.
In the Am, after a spectacular three-way challenge, Ange Barde (SF Côte d'Azur Cannes – IB FAST) claimed the win, ahead of an excellent Marco Pulcini (Al Tayer Motors), the poleman of the day who held out until the end against the attacks of Christian Brunsborg (Formula Racing), third.

Kenosha Community Media has hired Kristie Matteau as their new part-time executive director.
Matteau will replace Daniel Miskinis, who served as the interim executive director after Executive Director John Bloner, retired in January.
Matteau brings moree than 15 years of non-profit expertise to the organization. She holds bachelor’s degrees in Anthropology and Art History, a master’s degree in Communication, and is a 2016 graduate of Leadership Kenosha.
In addition to her role at KCM, she serves as the Director of Human Resources and Foundation Relations for the Kenosha Achievement Center, and is involved in the community, serving on the Lemon Street Gallery board and the Leadership Kenosha Steering Committee.
“Kenosha Community Media is an asset to local nonprofits, helping to increase the visibility of their mission and events within the community. Many organizations and students like my son benefit from The Hub, KCM’s digital media lab located at the Southwest Library. Kenosha Community Media lifts up and strengthens the great work happening in our community and I’m excited to be part of it” Matteau said.
“I think there should be a hefty internal investigation by DCFS into this case,” Peoria County Coroner Jamie Harwood said. “And if there were failures, those should be remedied.”
Kim Mahoney, who with her husband is considered the final Foxconn holdout for not selling their property, said she has made four offers to sell. Village staff have never allowed the Village Board to vote on those proposals.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — As John Legend was honored for his musical achievements Saturday — the night before the Grammy Awards — the singer used the Recording Academy stage to pay homage to a Black music culture that has shaped him and the wider world of music.
Legend explained how Black music has set trends for listeners across the globe, speaking at the academy’s Black Music Collective event in Las Vegas, where he was given the Global Impact Award for his personal and professional achievements in the music industry.
“I’m proud to celebrate and honor and cultivate our music,” Legend said at the event held the night before the Grammy Awards.
“Black music is and has been the rhythm, the root, the inspiration, the innovation behind so much of the world’s popular music. It doesn’t exist without us,” he said.
The multi-Grammy winner applauded the efforts of the Black Music Collective, a group created in 2020 of prominent music industry leaders — including honorary chairs from Legend and producers Jimmy Jam and Quincy Jones — who are looking to find ways to drive Black representation and inclusion. The academy has been focused on amplifying Black voices after years of backlash regarding racial inequality.
Like Legend, the event was filled with empowering messages that touched on the importance of recognizing Black music creators. It also featured a slew of popular performances including Chloe Bailey, Muni Long, Jimmie Allen, Cordae and Summer Walker.
Legend said Black music has the potential to fuel justice and inspire communities.
“Our art and music can help movements find their footing and voice,” he said. “Our art and music can help activists, the people closest to injustice and lead the way forward to equality and opportunity.”
Saweetie, who presented MC Lyte with an award, spoke about how Black women’s accomplishments have been downplayed but their impact on the culture has been undeniable. She has women have been in the forefront of hip-hop as rappers, producers and others behind the scenes.
“There’s no conversation about the past, present and future of hip-hop without women,” she said. “The playing ground has not been level, but I’m proud of the progress we made. Despite the continued injustice and inequality in our industry and society at large, there’s no better time to be a Black creator than now.”
The event highlighted the productive efforts by LVRN, a Black-founded record label that has built a strong roster including 6lack, D.R.A.M., Boogie and Summer Walker.
MC Lyte was honored for being the “beacon of hope” for Black women, while D-Nice was recognized for his success through Club Quarantine. He says Legend helped ignite the flood of new followers in the early stages.
“Club Quarantine is not really about D-Nice, the deejay,” he said. “It’s about a community. People come together and they share conversations in the chats. I’m just in the background trying to create a space to feel comfortable to get together. I say this like I said before ‘Black music saved the world.’”

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A woman has pleaded guilty to third-degree murder and kidnapping in the 2019 death of a western Pennsylvania toddler kidnapped near Pittsburgh and later found dead in a park dozens of miles away.
Sharena Nancy, 27, entered the plea Friday in Allegheny County Court as part of an agreement with prosecutors under which she was sentenced to 15 to 30 years in prison. She will receive credit for the 2 1/2 years she has spent behind bars.
The father of Nalani Johnson told authorities that Nancy, with whom he had been romantically involved, drove off with the toddler Aug. 31, 2019 in Penn Hills. The body of the child, who was about to have her second birthday, was found four days later in an Indiana County park about 37 miles (60 kilometers) away. Investigators said the girl was strapped into her car seat and in the same clothes she was last seen wearing.
The Indiana County coroner’s office ruled the death a homicide and called it consistent with suffocation. Authorities said there was no evidence to support Nancy's post-arrest allegation that the child’s father had sold her and she turned the toddler over to a woman in a roadside rendezvous. As part of the plea agreement, prosecutors withdrew charges of interference with the custody of a child, concealment of children, and abuse of a corpse.
Defense attorney Anthony DeLuca called the case “an unimaginable tragedy," adding that there was “deep regret here in the courtroom on behalf of our client.” He said Nancy has served as a mentor to others at the county jail and has shown a willingness to improve her own life and that of those around her.
More than 20 family members and other supporters were in court for the plea, many weeping as prosecutors reviewed the facts of the case. Some said they couldn't understand how the defendant, a mother of two children herself, could be capable of harming an innocent child.
“The fact that you are a mother shows what kind of monster you really are,” the child's great-aunt, Pariss Johnson, told Nancy during a victim impact statement Friday.
Common Pleas Judge Bruce Beemer said there are no words to express the suffering of the family.
“You have robbed them, and robbed her, of that life," Beemer said. “She should be coming home and telling these wonderful people what happened in kindergarten, the friends she made. ... This poor family has been sentenced to life. I hope you understand that.”

Former Ireland manager Eoin Hand. (Pic: Sportsfile)
When Stephen Kenny was named Republic of Ireland manager in succession to Mick McCarthy, it was written here that he wasn’t the first with a Dundalk football club connection to hold the post. He was the fourth, in fact, following in the footsteps of Liam Tuohy, Eoin Hand and Steve Staunton.
After he had put a fair few Dundalk full-backs through the wringer at Oriel, haring it down the wing in a success-laden career with Shamrock Rovers, Tuohy took over as Dundalk manager for a couple of seasons.
While at Oriel, he was appointed Republic of Ireland manager, and continued filling a dual role for twelve months before turning his full attention to the Ireland job.
Staunton togged out in the black-and-white at underage and then made it across to Liverpool for what would unfold as an exceptional career, his performances in the famous red jersey matched by what he had to offer in his 100-plus outings for his country. Three World Cup finals are testimony to his outstanding talent.
Like Tuohy and Staunton, Eoin Hand’s involvement at Oriel was short-lived. He arrived there as a teenager, having been released by relegated Swindon. He played as a winger and had a few outings. However, he was let go at the end of his first season. That was back in the mid-60s.
Hand moved to Drumcondra – with whom he had begun his League of Ireland career as a 17-year-old – and now a well-built six-footer, was given the chance to play at centre-half. This, he said in a chat with Inside Track last week, was the making of him.
“I had speed, and unlike playing on the wing where you had to be given the ball, I could attack the ball at centre-half. You could dictate play from there, and compared to playing on the wing, this was a doddle.”
A doddle, perhaps, but he must still have put in the long hours at Tolka Park, because after two seasons he was on his way across the Irish Sea once again, this time to sign for Portsmouth. He spent eleven seasons at Fratton Park and during that time won 20 International caps, most of them when Johnny Giles was player-manager.
Now living in Kerry, Hand takes his seat in front of the telly whenever there’s a game on, but he’s not a big fan of the way the Premier League game has developed. “It’s a disgrace the way it has gone. It’s all about money, there are fewer and fewer home-grown players involved, and it’s the same with managers.
“It drives me daft to see the simulation that goes on. That’s cheating, and I’ve seen it in schoolboy football as well. I was at a game one day and heard the manager telling a young fella to go down in the box. I went to him and told him that that was cheating. You can guess what he told me to do.
He makes Mo Salah an exception.“I think all young footballers should look at how the Liverpool player conducts himself. He’s a good role model. When he goes down, he’s up as quickly as he can; there’s no faking injury with him.”
There’s another thing on Hand’s ‘let’s cut it out’ list, and that’s players complaining and shouting at the referee. “It should be as it is in rugby, only the captain allowed to speak to the ref.”
So what had Inside Track on the phone to Kerry? Well, word came this way that just as he wasn’t the first with Oriel Park connections to get the Republic job, Stephen Kenny is not the only one to give his adopted Blackrock recognition.
The former Dundalk boss has been living in the seaside village since moving from Donegal, and it so happens that it was there were Eoin Hand’s mother was born.
The former Miss Monica McHugh lived there for a number of years before moving to Dublin to take over the running of the Brazen Head pub, which was owned by her aunt.
Reputed to be the oldest pub in the city, this famous hostelry – which is just across the road from another well-known watering-hole, O’Shea’s Merchant, much favoured by Kerry folk on All-Ireland football day – was then passed on to the by now-Mrs Hand on her aunt’s death.
Has Eoin Hand ever been to his mother’s birthplace? “A few times, but it was more out of curiosity than anything else.” Keep an eye on the radio station, Newtalk’s schedule. There’s a hour-long programme on Eoin Hand coming up shortly.

Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou hailed his players’ character after their 2-1 comeback win over Rangers at Ibrox took them six points clear at the top of the cinch Premiership.
The Hoops got off to the worst possible start when Aaron Ramsey put the Light Blues ahead in the third minute but the Parkhead side responded almost immediately with midfielder Tom Rogic levelling four minutes later.
Celtic, with just 700 fans allowed in the stadium to back them, then took control and defender Cameron Carter-Vickers fired them ahead just before the break and the visitors withstood some heavy pressure in the second half – albeit they had chances to stretch their lead – for the victory which confirmed a 12-point swing in the title race this season.
The Parkhead side are also 16 goals better off than Rangers and while Postecoglou would only say the victory took Celtic “three points closer” to the title, he revealed pride in their performance.
He said: “I’m really proud of the players. It was a proper derby, both teams were at it and they obviously got off to a great start and the crowd was up for it.
“To come back from that and show the resilience we did, we played ourselves back into the game and got ahead.
“Then the character in the second half to defend as we did, like I said I’m really proud.
“This group of players just really believes in what we’re trying to create here.
“I thought when we needed to we found the football to get us back in the game.”
Postecoglou praised the role of captain Callum McGregor, playing in a protective mask due to a facial injury, whose bustling effort helped set up Rogic’s equaliser.
“Callum was just outstanding as a leader,” he said. “His role in that first goal, particularly, was brilliant.
“But we didn’t settle for that. We went and got our second goal.
“Second half we had to defend but I thought we defended really well with the balls in the box.
“But we showed real courage and put our bodies on the line, Joe (Hart) made a couple of good saves. We also had good chances to seal it at the other end.
“So, it wasn’t the start you want but if you want to reveal character you reveal it in the most difficult of circumstances and that happened today. I thought you saw the character of this group.”
Postecoglou also pointed out Celtic’s recovery from a sticky start to the season just after he took over as boss to the point where their last domestic defeat came against Livingston in September.
The former Australia boss said: “We’ve just got to keep doing what we’ve been doing.
“We’re in this position for a reason and the main reason is the value of this group of players, the resilience they have.
“After six games we’d lost three and we were still putting a team together.
“But at no stage did I make excuses or any allowances for them. They accepted the challenge ahead of them.
“We’ve got to this point because of what you saw today. Our football’s been great but there’s a real abundance of character within the group.”
