In the year 2525, if man is still alive, archaeologists may find a tattered, scorched volume of U.S. history in the rubble outside Disney World. An excerpt:
The United States rose, a fully formed nation of 51 states, from the primordial soup in the vicinity of Washington, D.C., on July 4, 1776. At the same time, 15 to 20 white men walked out of a cloud of swamp gas. All were wearing “Members Only” jackets with the name of their gang, “The Founding Fathers,” emblazoned on the back. Seeing an opportunity, the gang took over the new nation. But they soon became bored and recruited a passing band of Black men, women and children to do the heavy lifting. The Black people were very happy to do so. Then the Founding Fathers retired to the parlor for brandy and cigars.
During a game of quoits the Founding Fathers discovered that Puerto Rico was a state, so they voted unanimously to kick it out, and the country settled into its current configuration of 50 states. Never, the Founding Fathers decided, would they admit that there ever been more than 50 states. “Deny, deny, deny!” said Thomas Jefferson, the tallest Founding Father and thus the alpha male. A brief scuffle took place when George Washington claimed to be taller than Jefferson, but Benjamin Franklin declared that Washington was taller only because he wore a wig. The others nodded their heads, drained their snifters and hurriedly signed a document that Jefferson had scribbled on the back of a cocktail napkin.
“I call it ‘The Constitution!’” Jefferson cried, throwing his snifter into the fireplace. “Woe betide he who breaks any of its precepts!”
“I hope you left the wording purposely vague so that future generations will never know what we actually meant!” said John Adams. Jefferson smiled slyly and gave a thumbs up. Then he threw Adams into the fireplace.
Time passed. A brief Civil War took place sometime in the 1860s. It was spurred by the Fat Cats in the Industrial North trying to tell the poor, gentlemanly farmers of the Bucolic South what to do. In no way, shape or form was the war about slavery. Blacks living in the Bucolic South actually were ecstatic to be working for free because plantation owners gave them all the cotton they could eat and complimentary banjos with which to compose catchy, carefree “spirituals.”
The Bucolic South actually won the war, but the Fat Cats stole all the history books, changed the narrative and made sure that this new, revisionist history was taught in every school across the land. They called it “Critical Race Theory,” and it caused lots of problems. Time passed again.
By the 21st century, the nation had split along ideological lines that neither side could fully explain. So the people blamed the divide on things they couldn’t understand. Things like Critical Race Theory, gender identification and reproductive rights.
In 2022, Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida managed to have several laws passed that restricted how schools taught about race and gender identity. After rejecting 54 math textbooks for including Critical Race Theory concepts without citing a single example, DeSantis said he would solve the problem by passing a law decreeing that all numbers must be printed in white.
Soon the nation sank into the swamps of Florida.

NEW YORK, April 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Cano Health, Inc. f/k/a Jaws Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: CANO, CANO.WS, JWS, JWS.U, JWS WS) between May 18, 2020 and February 25, 2022, inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important May 17, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Cano Health securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Cano Health class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=4271 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than May 17, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Cano Health overstated its due diligence efforts and expertise with respect to acquiring target businesses; (2) accordingly, Cano Health performed inadequate due diligence into whether the Company, post-Business Combination, could properly account for the timing of revenue recognition as prescribed by ASC 606, particularly with respect to Medicare risk adjustments; (3) as a result, Cano Health misstated its capitated revenue, direct patient expense, accounts receivable, net of unpaid service provider costs, and accounts payable and accrued expenses; (4) accordingly, Cano Health was at an increased risk of failing to timely file one or more of its periodic financial reports; and (5) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Cano Health class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=4271 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

ISTANBUL (AP) — A Turkish court is expected on Monday to deliver its final verdict in the trial against civil rights activist and philanthropist Osman Kavala who is accused of attempting to overthrow the government in connection with mass protests that broke out in 2013.
Kavala, who has already spent more than four years in jail, faces life in prison without parole if convicted.
Human rights groups say Kavala is being prosecuted with flimsy evidence. His case is being closely watched as a test for the rule of law in Turkey.
Europe’s top human rights body, the Council of Europe, has initiated “infringement” procedures against Turkey for refusing to abide by European Court of Human Rights rulings, which called for Kavala’s release on grounds that his rights had been violated.
Fellow defendant Mucella Yapici — an activist and architect — also faces a life term, while six other defendants could receive maximum 20-year prison terms.
Kavala, 64, has been jailed in Silivri prison, on the outskirts of Istanbul, since he was detained Oct. 18, 2017, accused of financing the protests. The businessman and other defendants have denied all accusations against them.
In his final defense statements on Friday, Kavala rejected the accusations once again, insisting that he had merely taken pastries and face masks bought from a pharmacy to the protesters. He said claims that he directed the protests are “not plausible.”
“The fact that I spent 4.5 years of my life in prison is an irreparable loss for me. My only consolation is the possibility that my experience will contribute to a better understanding of the grave problems of the judiciary,” Kavala told the court by videoconference from Silivri.
Kavala was initially acquitted in February 2020 of charges that connected him with the 2013 Gezi Park protests. As supporters awaited his release, Kavala was rearrested on new charges linking him to a 2016 coup attempt. The acquittal was later overturned and the case was merged with that relating to the coup attempt, which the Turkish government blames on the network of U.S.-based Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen.
In October, Kavala’s continued detention sparked a diplomatic crisis between Turkey and 10 Western countries, including the United States, France and Germany, after they called for his release on the fourth anniversary of his imprisonment.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused Kavala, of being the “Turkish branch” of billionaire U.S. philanthropist George Soros, whom the Turkish leader alleges has been behind insurrections in many countries. He threatened to expel Western envoys for meddling in Turkey’s internal affairs.
The European Court of Human Rights’ 2019 decision said Kavala’s imprisonment aimed to silence him and other human rights defenders and wasn’t supported by evidence of an offense.
The lengthy infringement process by the Council of Europe, a 47-member bloc that upholds human rights, could lead to the suspension of Turkey’s voting rights or membership in the organization.
Erdogan has dismissed the infringement process, saying Turkey would not “recognize those who do not recognize our courts.” Turkey argues that Kavala’s ongoing detention is linked to the 2016 attempted coup and not the previous charges that were reviewed by the European court.
Kavala is the founder of a nonprofit organization, Anadolu Kultur, which focuses on cultural and artistic projects promoting peace and dialogue.
The 2013 protests started as opposition to the planned development of a shopping mall on the site of the small park in central Istanbul and soon grew into a nationwide protest against Erdogan, who was prime minister at the time. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/world/turkish-court-set-to-deliver-verdict-against-philanthropist/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | 2022-04-25T08:57:54Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/world/turkish-court-set-to-deliver-verdict-against-philanthropist/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | true | 18 |
Emerging study reveals huge Blackburn Rovers and Hull City losses due to empty seats at home games
A recent investigation by OLBG has revealed the biggest losers in the Championship in terms of home attendances for the 2021/22 season.
Of all 24 teams in the Championship this season, Blackburn Rovers post the biggest losses in terms of empty seats at home games.
OLBG have revealed that the Rovers lose out on a staggering £463,425 every game from empty seats at Ewood Park, with Hull City following closely behind with a loss of £427,482.
On average this season, there are 18,537 empty seats at Ewood Park and 12,954 at the MKM Stadium.
Behind Blackburn and Hull City, the likes of Cardiff City, Middlesbrough and Derby County round off the top five, as per OLBG.
Cardiff City recorded an average attendance of 18,717 but they boast an average of 14,599 unsold tickets for each home game, making for a loss of over £400,000 per game.
At Middlesbrough, they average around 13,271 unsold tickets each home game this season despite their push for the play-offs (a £384,859 loss) whilst Derby County record an average attendance of 21,471 according to OLBG, making for ticket losses adding up to £357,456 – the Rams though have the second-highest profit in the league from home ticket sales at £751,245.
Luton Town meanwhile has the lowest loss in terms of empty home seats this season, losing out on just £10,180 each home game this season.

Biden to send additional $800M in military aid to Ukraine
WASHINGTON ( NewsNation ) — President Joe Biden announced Thursday plans to send an additional $800 million in military aid to help Ukraine fight back against the Russian invasion.
“Our unity at home and in Ukraine is sending an unmistakable message to Putin,” Biden said. “He will never succeed in dominating all of Ukraine.”
The new military assistance package includes much-needed heavy artillery, 144,000 rounds of ammunition and drones for Ukrainian forces in the escalating battle for the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine. It builds on roughly $2.6 billion in military assistance that Biden had previously approved for Ukraine.
Biden said that the $13.6 billion approved last month by Congress for military and humanitarian assistance was “almost exhausted.” He said the new aid package is going “directly to the front lines of freedom” in order to “beat back Putin’s savagery.”
Putin tells forces not to storm stronghold in MariupolThe aid includes additional howitzers and artillery rounds and Phoenix Ghost drones — a weapon the Pentagon said is “designed to deliver a punch.” The drone was custom-made by the Air Force to use against the Russians.
In addition to the military package, Biden announced a new program to expedite the arrival of Ukrainian refugees. Under the Homeland Security Department program, “Uniting for Ukraine,” Americans and groups, including nonprofit organizations and churches, can apply to sponsor displaced Ukrainian citizens. The application site will go live April 25.
To be eligible, Ukrainians must have been living in Ukraine on Feb. 11, must have a U.S. sponsor and must meet public health standards, including vaccination requirements. The program would provide a quick solution to the current migration crisis.
Biden said the U.S. would not lessen its resolve.
“This is our responsibility,” Biden said as he announced $500 million in direct economic assistance to the Ukrainian government to help stabilize the economy, support shelled communities and pay first responders.
The new aid package comes as the war stretches into its third month and as Russian forces began a new full-scale offensive to take control of eastern Ukraine this week.
Ukrainian millionaire: I asked military to bomb my houseOn Wednesday, Biden lauded U.S. military officials for “exceptional” work arming Ukraine as he gathered the nation’s military brass for their first in-person group meeting at the White House of his presidency.
It’s an annual tradition that had been put on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic but is now being resurrected as the U.S. arms Ukraine to help it fight back against Russia’s invasion.
“I don’t know about you, but I’ve been to Ukraine a number of times before the war … and I knew they were tough and proud but I tell you what: They’re tougher and more proud than I thought,” Biden told military commanders. “I’m amazed at what they’re doing with your help.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his forces not to storm the last remaining Ukrainian stronghold in the city of Mariupol on Thursday but instead to blockade it so tightly “that not even a fly comes through.”
However, leaving the plant in Ukrainian hands robs the Russians of the ability to declare complete victory in Mariupol , which has seen some of the most dramatic fighting of the war and whose capture has both strategic and symbolic importance.
Biden’s remarks come as a new NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ poll found that 37.6% of Americans strongly disprove of Biden. About 24 percent strongly approve. The poll also found that nearly 43 percent of those surveyed thought Russia was the biggest threat to the United States compared to other countries including China and North Korea.

Although there are a lot of successful investing strategies on Wall Street, few have more consistently delivered for investors over the long-term than buying dividend stocks.
Back in 2013, J.P. Morgan Asset Management, a division of money-center bank JPMorgan Chase, released a report comparing the performance of dividend-paying stocks to non-dividend payers over a 40-year period (1972-2012). The result? Dividend stocks crushed the non-payers with an average annual return of 9.5% versus 1.6% for the non-payers.
But even among income stocks, no two are alike. There's a special breed of more than five dozen income stocks known as "Dividend Aristocrats" that are revered for their willingness to return capital to shareholders. A Dividend Aristocrat is an S&P 500 company that's increased its base annual payout for at least 25 consecutive years.
Following the recent pullback in the broader market, two Dividend Aristocrats stand out for all the right reasons and can confidently be purchased hand over fist. Meanwhile, another trusted Dividend Aristocrat is best off avoided.
Dividend Aristocrat No. 1 to buy: Walgreens Boots Alliance
The first incredible dividend stock begging to be bought is pharmacy chain Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ: WBA). Walgreens has been paying a regularly quarterly dividend for more than 89 years, and it's increased its base annual payout in each of the past 46 years. Its 4.1% yield is the highest among the Dividend Aristocrats I'm discussing today.
Pardon the pun, but healthcare stocks are generally immune to economic downturns. Even though the share prices of healthcare stocks may move lower in sympathy with the broader market, people don't stop getting sick just because of recessions or stock market corrections. The persistent need for healthcare services and prescription medicines is what makes healthcare stocks so defensive.
While this defensive aspect has helped Walgreens in the past, it didn't save the company from being clobbered during the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since pharmacy chains are primarily reliant on foot traffic, lockdowns really weighed on front-end retail sales and clinic revenue. But the good news for income investors is it means they can scoop up shares of Walgreens at an extremely attractive valuation.
Walgreens Boots Alliance is in the midst of executing on a multipoint growth strategy designed to improve its operating margins, boost organic growth opportunities, and build brand loyalty.
For example, the company has reduced its annual operating expenses by more than $2 billion a year ahead of schedule, and it divested its drug wholesale business, Alliance Healthcare, to AmerisourceBergen in June 2021 to reduce its debt load. All the while, it's aggressively spent on digitization efforts designed to boost direct-to-consumer sales. Even though Walgreens will always be reliant on foot traffic, online sales are a no-brainer way to boost its organic growth potential.
The company is also working with (and investing in) VillageMD to open more than 600 co-located, full-service health clinics in over 30 U.S. markets by the end of 2025. These clinics are differentiated by being physician-staffed and are the perfect tool to build a loyal following of repeat patients/customers.
Sporting a forward-year price-to-earnings multiple of around 9, Walgreens is a value-based high-yield company income investors can trust for years to come.
Dividend Aristocrat No. 2 to buy: NextEra Energy
Another Dividend Aristocrat income seekers can confidently buy hand over fist is electric utility stock NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE). NextEra has increased its base annual payout for 28 consecutive years and is currently parsing out a 2.1% yield. Keep in mind that the only reason this yield is below the industry average for utility stocks is because NextEra's shares have risen 380% over the trailing 10-year period.
Over the past couple of months, NextEra's steady march higher has hit a few snags. For starters, skeptics are concerned about how higher lending rates might impact the company's infrastructure projects. Additionally, CEO John Ketchum divulged last week that the U.S. Department of Commerce launched a probe in late March that could result in hefty retroactive tariffs on solar panel imports from Southeast Asian nations. The uncertainty surrounding these tariffs may cause NextEra to delay some of its solar projects until next year.
While both of these concerns are tangible, they overlook the predictability of cash flow associated with utility stocks, as well as fail to recognize NextEra's clear-cut competitive advantages.
What allows NextEra Energy to stand out is the company's leading renewable energy assets. No electric utility in the country comes close to the capacity NextEra can generate from wind or solar. Despite these projects being costly, they're helping to significantly lower electricity generation costs, which in turn has lifted the company's compound annual growth rate to the high single digits for more than a decade.
NextEra is also benefiting from its regulated utility operations -- i.e., those not powered by a renewable energy source. Although regulation means the company can't raise rates on a whim, it also ensures it isn't exposed to potentially volatile wholesale electricity pricing. This ties back into the predictability of the company's operating cash flow.
With NextEra targeting 10% annual dividend growth through at least 2024, this stock looks like a safe bet for patient income seekers.
The Dividend Aristocrat to avoid like the plague: Clorox
On the other side of the coin is brand-name consumer staples stock Clorox (NYSE: CLX). The company behind an assortment of well-known cleaning products sports a 3.1% dividend yield and has increased its base annual payout for 44 consecutive years.
Clorox found itself in the right place when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. A company known for products designed to clean surfaces and kill bacteria was perfectly positioned to take advantage of the initial stages of the pandemic. Between 2019 and 2021, Clorox's annual sales jumped from $6.21 billion to $7.34 billion.
Unfortunately for Clorox, the uncertainty that fueled consumers to purchase cleaning products has subsided. While the pandemic isn't over, it would appear that worst of the COVID-19 pandemic is now in the rearview mirror. Recent variants of the disease have led to lower mortality rates when compared to the initial strain and other key variants.
If there's a silver lining for Clorox, it's that the company's well-known brands typically command strong pricing power. When combined with historically high inflation, Clorox hasn't had any issues passing along higher costs to consumers. The issue is that Clorox can't raise its prices fast enough to offset the drop in organic demand for its products. The company's fiscal second quarter, which ended Dec. 31, 2021, featured a 10% decline in volume and an 8% drop-off in organic sales.
In addition to Clorox's Health and Wellness segment reversing course from its unsustainable boost during the pandemic, shares of the company remain unattractive even following a 38% decline since hitting its all-time intra-day high in August 2020. We're talking about a consumer goods company that typically grows sales by a low single-digit percentage that's being valued at an aggressive 26 times Wall Street's forward-year earnings consensus. There are dozens of dividend stocks with forward-year price-to-earnings ratios below 26 that also sport growth rates well above 2% to 3% annually.
Clorox is a Dividend Aristocrat that income investors should avoid.

COVID-19 cases are ticking up in much of the country as unmasking continues, but declines in hospitalizations and deaths are fueling optimism that the U.S. won't see another big surge.

in all Europe, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has stimulated a rethinking of virtually every dimension of security, from defense to energy. The likely impact of the war on security in East Asia, especially Taiwan and Japan, has received far less attention. But the transformation that lies ahead may be just as profound.
(Also read: Ukraine announces new attempt to evacuate civilians in Mariupol).
The Ukraine war, though distant, poses a substantial risk to East Asia. China is closely watching the conflict, and the West’s response. If Russia pays a high price for its actions, with sanctions (which Japan has also imposed) lasting long enough to decimate its economy, China may be discouraged from taking military action against Taiwan, at least until it can ensure that its economy be well protected.
However, if Russia gets its way and pays a low price, China could be emboldened to increase its pressure on Taiwan, and even invade the island as soon as possible. If it does, Japan may well be drawn into the conflict, because its Senkaku Islands, over which China has claimed sovereignty since the 1970s, are less than 140 miles from Taiwan.
(You can read: Russia, accused of ‘war crimes’, goes for the Ukrainian east and south).
As former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe noted last December, “an emergency in Taiwan is a Japanese emergency and therefore an emergency for the Japan-US alliance”. But the US response to the Ukraine war has suggested to many Japanese that this alliance may need to be strengthened, and that Japan should not rely solely on the United States for its security.
Reviewing MacArthur
This implies a reconsideration of some of the basic principles of Japanese security, beginning with its pacifist constitution. Drafted under the supervision of US General Douglas MacArthur during the Allied occupation of Japan after World War IIJapan’s constitution was intended to ensure that the country would never again pose a threat to others.
Japan’s post-war pacifism is enshrined in Article 9: “Sincerely aspiring to an international peace based on justice and order, the Japanese people forever renounce war as a sovereign right of the nation and the threat or use of force as a means of settling international disputes.
Article 9 was interpreted somewhat loosely during the Korean War, in order to give Japan some self-defense capability. In 1954, limited land, sea and air forces were established under the new Law of self defense forces.
However, Japan’s constitution fundamentally assumes that the threats to the country are not great enough to require a significant military capability. As its preamble says, “We, the Japanese people, wish for peace forever and are keenly aware of the high ideals that control human relations, and we have decided to preserve our security and existence, trusting in the justice and faith of the peace-loving peoples of the world.”
(It may interest you: Johnson estimates that the war in Ukraine may last until the end of 2023).
In other words, if Japan remained demilitarized, other countries would not be threatened by it, nor would they attack it. Many on Japan’s left have often echoed this logic, arguing that demilitarization and neutrality is a formula for peace.
Putin struck a chord
But as the war in Ukraine shows, not all the peoples of the world – or, at least, their leaders – are “peace lovers”. Beyond relentlessly bombing civilian areas, the Russian president, Vladimir Putinannounced early in the conflict that he had placed his country’s nuclear forces on high alert.
This statement put much of the world on edge, but it struck a particularly deep chord in Japan, the only country to have suffered nuclear attacks. Japan has long opposed the existence of any nuclear weapons. But more and more countries have been developing them. One such country, North Korea, has also routinely tested missiles that often land in the Sea of Japan.
Ukraine is not a member of NATO and, since 1994, has lacked a nuclear deterrent of its own. Furthermore, US President Joe Biden has made it clear that he is not willing to risk a direct military clash with Russia by adopting measures such as a no-fly zone over Ukraine. This has raised fears that if Japan were to be attacked by a nuclear power, be it Russia, China or North Korea, the United States would also refuse to defend it.
Yes, the United States has agreed to do so under the US-Japan security treaty; but Japan cannot know whether and to what extent the United States will honor that commitment until it may already be too late.
momentous turn
With this in mind, the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is seeking to amend the constitution to explicitly mention Japan’s right to self-defense law and recognize its self-defense forces. Even moderate Prime Minister Fumio Kishida supports the amendment, saying he will press the Diet to discuss it.
Besides, some Japanese, notably Abe, have advocated an expansion of the US-U.S. security treaty and Japan to include a nuclear sharing agreement, as exists within NATO. For a country that promised more than half a century ago never to produce, possess or harbor nuclear weapons, this is a highly contentious proposal. In the 1970s, it would have caused a firestorm of criticism. But while Kishida has said his government has no plans to reconsider Japan’s stance on nuclear weapons, some LDP politicians are now receptive to such discussion.
(Read: The future of the war in Ukraine ‘depends on the fate of Mariupol’).
The evolution of this debate will depend significantly on the costs that the world imposes on Russia. If Putin gets away with his aggression in Ukraine, securing concessions without paying a heavy and prolonged economic price, Japan will be motivated to take more radical steps to ensure its security. In this sense, the West’s commitment to sanctions has important implications for Asian stability.

HAMILTON, Bermuda, April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Seadrill Limited ("Seadrill") is pleased to announce a new contract has been secured by Sonadrill Holding Ltd ("Sonadrill"), Seadrill's 50:50 joint venture with an affiliate of Sonangol E.P.

Sunday|Thursday knows
Ask anything – Torsti and his lollipop offer an answer. If you are not satisfied with the answer, please submit your own suggestion. Email: hs.torsti@hs.fi.
Hey Again, readers, this is Thursday. As expected, Torsti received a lot of mail address letters. A former traffic inspector who drafted the standard in the address group of the City Association in the 1960s Ensio Virta points out that, contrary to what Torsti wrote, the houses below the house number must be marked after the number without spaces: 1a, 1b and 1c.
Matti Jalava deplores information systems that do not qualify for this space-free format.
Keijo Perälä tells how lowercase letters have always been used in his hometown of Turku, as there are several Carl Ludwig Engelin large plots of land drawn by him, which are then split.
He is wondering how many people think of the EU as a potential messer of the numbering system, even though house numbers are perhaps the last thing that could be harmonized at EU level.
I watch a lot of movies, but the completely illogical things in their plots are very disturbing. Especially when you have to think about them. In Rita Hayworth – The Key to Escape, prisoner Andy Dufresne disappears incomprehensibly. He has dug a tunnel and covered the opening with a poster depicting Rita Hayworth. I wonder how Andy got the poster back on the wall in the start. In the film Good, Evil and Ugly, on the other hand, there is a skeleton in the grave that should have been the victim of a civil war buried less than two years ago, even though it seems to have been buried in the grave for at least ten years. So I ask if the screenwriters have guidance to avoid annoying illogicalities.
– Juho Nuutinen, Kuopio
Both lollipop directors who have directed and written the films consider the question to be hampered.
Of course, mistakes are made to avoid. That is why a background study is being carried out to find out very precisely what the locking mechanism of the Saab 900 is like. The illogicalities of scriptwriting are facilitated by the most accurate experience possible. In filming, continuity issues are handled by the filming secretary next to the director. Even at the cutting stage, errors can be masked by so-called off-tones, i.e. speech whose speaker is not shown in the picture.
Another director estimates that logical errors are a risk, above all, for plot-driven films in a foreign world. If the film takes place in our time and tells mostly of people’s feelings, there is less room for annoying illogicalities.
The second director, on the other hand, recalls the difficult-to-translate concept of art research suspension of disbeliefwhich means how easy it is to look through the fingers at the flaws in an engaging work.
“People are good at forgiving as long as the story pulls,” he says.
You see, he thinks that movies – except maybe animations – can hold more errors than viewers ever notice. The halves of the actors ’distributions change, the weather changes, and the tobacco doesn’t stay in the same hand from sample to sample. You also know how often the camera group shows up.
It is, of course, individual where each ends up drawing their limits. The irritation threshold of a shoemaker and an engineer is certainly exceeded at different points.
And let’s take a closer look at the poster for Rita Hayworth – The Key to Escape. Other Dufresnen Sellin posters are attached at the top. If the Hayworth poster were also attached from the second lower corner, the poster would remain taut, but would be able to pop out behind it. Torstia also wonders how the tiny felling won’t end even in the 19-year tunnel excavation – but it didn’t interfere with movie enjoyment.
My late father was working at the paper mills in Kuusankoski in the 80’s and 90’s, from time to time a half-liter tin can called “kenkleeni” was brought as a gift. It was reportedly no longer allowed to be used in the factory for any particular purpose because it was too toxic, so the paperworkers took it home without permission, where it was then cleaned of all possible places from the floorboards to the drawers of the cabinets. Would you have any idea what that magical substance really was? Could the name have come from some Ken Clean or other brand?
– Atte Rätt
Ken Clean is a good guess, as it is a product called Genklene, chemically known as 1,1,1-trichloroethane or methyl chloroform. In paper mills, it was a popular cleaner for paper machines. The grease and stuff really came off. The other good thing was that unlike many other solvents, Genklene was not flammable. However, when evaporated, it was dangerous and is also said to have been used as an anesthetic.
In the Montreal Convention, 1,1,1-trichloroethane was lined up as an ozone depleting substance. Its import and use has been banned in Finland since the beginning of 1995.
Over the years, it took time to take it home from the factory. The paperworker recalls how the places shone when the “stump” was used at home to clean the car’s engine, for example. If the protective gloves were forgotten, it would have left the skins, he says.

Steve Frank is BACK!!!! An Explanation
Steve Frank, Exclusive to the California Political News and Views, 4/25/22
It has been a little over two weeks since I have consistently, on a daily basis, provided the California Political News and Views. Many have texted, emailed and called me to ask about the lack of the newsletter.
On April 7 I had two major surgeries. Due to that I have been in bed for most of the past two weeks, except to go to the hospital or for doctor visits. The recovery has taken longer than expected and has been more painful than expected. Sunday, yesterday, was the first day I have been able to sit up in a regular chair for more than a few minutes. My doctors say it will be another 2-4 weeks before I am completely recovered. It is expected that I will now be able to provide a newsletter on its regular schedule.
I want to thank all those who have prayed for me, sent their good wishes and are concerned about my health. In order to get better as quickly as possible, I have severely limited taking phone calls, or responding to emails or text messages. For five days I did not respond to anybody.
Please if you have any political tips, political foibles or corruption, continue to send me your information,
Now that we are 197 days from the November 8 election and about 40 days from the June primary, the HEARD ON THE TOMS TOMS column will be published more often. The mainstream media covers up the problems of political parties and candidates—the California Political News and Views will expose them.
As always we will provide information on politics and policy you will not get elsewhere—and an analysis of what it means, along with the history of the issue.
Again, thank you for your support and prayers. Together, we will make a difference at the polls and in the community. | http://www.capoliticalreview.com/capoliticalnewsandviews/steve-frank-is-back-an-explanation/ | 2022-04-25T09:59:00Z | http://www.capoliticalreview.com/capoliticalnewsandviews/steve-frank-is-back-an-explanation/ | false | 1 |
Furious row breaks out over 'idiotic' £400 fine and five points handed to motorist for driving 'far too closely' to cyclists
- Driver given five points and fined £417 for driving too close to group of cyclists
- Video posted by Sheffield North West policing team shows car over central lines
- Police warned anyone who 'endangers vulnerable road users' could be filmed
A driver has gained five points on his licence and fined £417 after 'accelerating' and passing too close to a group of cyclists.
In a video shared by Sheffield North West policing team, the driver of a silver Peugeot speeds towards and past the group, with some of his car crossing over the central white lines, and into the other lane.
The cyclists were overtaking a parked car in single file. The video does not show the whole group, but the force clarified that footage was taken by one of the cyclists, with bikes in front and behind them.
The prosecution has sparked a row between motorists over who was in the right. The Alliance of British Drivers said it 'undermines the credibility of the courts and the police', with other critics suggesting the cyclist should have given way.
But the force has defended the decision, stating if the driver had slowed and stayed in his lane, he would not have been prosecuted.
A driver has gained five points on his licence and fined £417 after driving too close to a group of cyclists
The force said in a Tweet: 'If anyone thinks this is an acceptable manner of driving, let this be your warning.
'The driver didn’t just endanger one cyclist, he was also too close to those following. He would have seen a group of bikes in a line, and chose to accelerate to a speed increasing the danger to all of them and swerve over the white lines towards them.
'If he had simply driven to the conditions at a less dangerous speed and stayed on his own side of the road he wouldn’t have been prosecuted.'
The decision to prosecute was called 'idiotic' by the Alliance of British Drivers, which said it 'undermines the credibility of the courts and the police'.
'We all know there are fanatics who want drivers to stop and bow down before every cyclist. If the police foolishly choose to side with them it will damage the relationship with the public,' the group said.
'This is not policing, this is intimidation.'
The decision to prosecute was called 'idiotic' by the Alliance of British Drivers (ABD)
The driver of a silver Peugeot can be seen speeding towards the group of cyclists from the opposite direction, over the central white lines
Other critics on Twitter argued that the cyclists should have given way to the passing car, due to the parked car in their lane.
Sheffield North West policing team defended its position, adding: 'If people do choose to endanger vulnerable road users by poor driving, they need to remember that any pedestrian, horse rider, cyclist or vehicle may be recording.
'We will be happy to make sure that there are consequences to endangering others.'
The force said that the driver was also issued a S59 warning as soon as they were notified of the offence.
'If he is seen to drive in a careless and antisocial manner in the year since it was issued his vehicle will be seized,' it said.
Other Twitter users supported the force's decision, commenting: 'The car has crossed the line presumably to avoid the trees. But the cyclist is on his own side all the time. The car should have waited till it was clear to cross the line. Good call.'
The force warned in a Tweet that the driving was not acceptable, and that the driver had been fined more than £400 for the incident
Another added: 'What you have to do is stay on your own side of the dividing line when other road users are approaching in the oncoming lane, as this driver didn't. If you find that a problem, hand in your licence, you're not fit to drive.'
'The driver is driving dangerously.' another commenter said. 'He should have slowed down and stayed well to the left, not drifted across the median line, into the lane of oncoming traffic at high speed. Learn to drive.'
Some also criticised the Alliance of British Drivers, for 'defending illegal driving'.
Some also criticised the Alliance of British Drivers, for 'defending illegal driving'
The 'dangerous' driving incident happened in August last year, before the Highway Code was updated.
It now advises drivers to 'leave at least 1.5 metres when overtaking cyclists at speeds of up to 30mph, and give them more space when overtaking at higher speeds.'
It previously advised drivers to 'give motorcyclists, cyclists and horse riders at least as much room as you would when overtaking a car'.
New guidance also includes a 'hierarchy of road users' with those at most risk at the top.
Pedestrians come first, followed by cyclists, then horse riders, motorcyclists, and moves into cars, vans, minibuses and lorries. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10750323/Motorist-handed-FIVE-points-fined-400-driving-close-group-cyclists-Video.html | 2022-04-25T09:59:37Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10750323/Motorist-handed-FIVE-points-fined-400-driving-close-group-cyclists-Video.html | false | 3 |

A clutch of tech executives including Flipkart co-founder Binny Bansal, Google's Bradley Horowitz and DoorDash's Gokul Rajaram have backed Humantic AI, an artificial intelligence-based startup that aims to help sales people better understand their prospective customers.
The Palo Alto and Bengaluru-based startup has raised a total $1.5 million in the round that also saw angel investors such as Palo Alto Networks chief business officer Amit Singh, former AT&T Communications CEO John Donovan and Observe.AI co-founder Sharath Keshava Narayana.
Founded in 2021 by Amarpreet Kalkat, Humantic AI helps salespeople engage more customers and build relationships by providing them 'prospect intelligence'.
The startup says its proprietary personality AI engine assembles detailed personality profiles that provide predictive personality insights to sales teams helping them better understand their customer before meeting them and thereby be more effective at every step of their buying journey.
The company claims that its personality AI solution is already being used by over 100 organisations of various sizes including Rackspace, Paypal, McKinsey, and Wellington.
It claims that companies using its platform saw an average decrease of 36 percent in time taken for first engagement, 30 percent increase in response rates and 6.2 percent increase in closed revenue.
Kalkat had previously co-founded Frrole AI, an artificial intelligence platform that works at the intersection of social data and consumer intelligence. It provides consumer intelligence solutions to digital marketing and insights teams.
"One of the key reasons I invested in Humantic AI is the product versatility and the spectrum depth itself. The product is one that can be used by every company on this planet. Big, small, mid-sized, everybody needs a prospect intelligence tool," said Narayana, who is joining the company's board as part of this investment. | https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/startup/humantic-ai-raises-funding-from-googles-bradley-horowitz-flipkart-co-founder-binny-bansal-others-8406571.html | 2022-04-25T10:07:45Z | https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/startup/humantic-ai-raises-funding-from-googles-bradley-horowitz-flipkart-co-founder-binny-bansal-others-8406571.html | true | 2 |

Indonesia central bank governor sees 'imminent risks' from crypto assets
JAKARTA : The rapid growth in trading of digital assets such as cryptocurrency is providing an alternative investment, but comes with "very big, imminent risks", including for financial stability, Indonesia's central bank governor said on Monday.
Governor Perry Warjiyo made the comments during an online discussion on the importance of central banks using a digital currency.

Visit Prosper Africa to access U.S. Government trade and investment support and browse the Virtual Deal Room with curated investment opportunities, including companies like Tomato Jos.
Tomatoes. No sandwich, stew, or jollof rice is complete without this key ingredient. But besides being tasty, the global tomato industry is big business and that’s precisely what entrepreneur Mira Mehta has cashed in on.
Tomatoes are one of the priority crops in the Nigerian government’s food security programme. The country is the 14th largest producer of tomatoes in the world, second in Africa and accounts for about 65% of all tomatoes produced in West Africa. Despite this, Nigeria imports an average of 150,000 tonnes of tomato paste concentrate annually, valued at about U.S.$170 million - making it the 13th largest importer of tomato paste globally and third in Africa.
This is one of many motivations for the establishment of an agro-processing company in Kaduna, about 190km from Nigeria's capital Abuja. Another was just how much of the precious crop was being wasted. This challenge presented an opportunity for Mira Mehta to form Tomato Jos.
In 2008 Mehta started working for an NGO in the health sector and developed her love for the diversity and opportunities Nigeria presents.“Over the years that I've lived in Nigeria, I really grew to love the country ... I felt that this was a place where I could actually create something, make a real difference and build an incredible company."
To make that difference Mehta started Tomato Jos in 2014. By September 2021, the company officially launched its tomato paste factory in Kaduna, almost seven years after it first started growing tomatoes in the country. The facility is said to be the third-largest of its kind in Nigeria and can produce one carton of tomato paste packets every minute.
Mehta says Prosper Africa has been instrumental in helping Tomato Jos raise the money for its factory. Prosper Africa’s support and investment in the success of the company was key in attracting more investors and showing them the vision, value and prospects for Tomato Jos. This invaluable support resulted in unlocking additional funding. In 2020, the company raised €3.9 million, led by Goodwell Investments through Alitheia Capital - its West African partner - with participation from Acumen Capital Partners and VestedWorld among other global investors.
"Our goal up to now has been to create a supply of tomatoes at the right price, at the right volume, at the right quality over the right period of time, and that has been our focus - that is the foundation on which the factory will rest," she says. To achieve this, the team needed quality produce from local farmers.
The company’s support to local farmers over a number of years has also increased their production and profitability. With direct capital from investors, the company is now able to directly support over 70 farmers to grow their average yield by over 340% from 5 to 22 metric tons per hectare, while increasing average income by 455%.
During extensive planting or harvesting periods, the farmers often need additional labour, expanding an income-generating opportunity to thousands of people. This makes Tomato Jos the largest employer in a 32km radius.
But this journey hasn’t been without its challenges.
The global Covid-19 pandemic, now in its third year, has caused hardship to communities and countries around the globe. Businesses had to adapt to lockdown orders and social distancing protocols to protect the health of their workers. For the Tomato Jos team it was no different.
When Covid-19 first hit, the company had just raised the capital for the factory. The lockdown was enforced around the Easter period which according to Mehta, is one of the peak periods for the sale of fresh tomatoes. “Our prices crashed because we couldn’t get our trucks with tomatoes from Kaduna down to Lagos and Port Harcourt, where the major markets are. We took a loss, a huge loss on the harvest," she says.
In addition, construction of the factory that began in January 2020 had to be put on hold, but could fortunately resume in August, just in time for the processing equipment worth €3.5 million that arrived in November. After intensive staff training, the first production test was in March 2021.
After successfully adapting to these circumstances, Nigerians shopping at markets in and around Kaduna were finally able to taste a locally-produced tomato paste made with locally-grown tomatoes in the first quarter of 2022.
Mehta thinks that local processing gives her company an edge. "Over 95% of the tomato products consumed in Nigeria come from abroad, so being able to produce a local product is certainly a differentiator in terms of quality and cost".
When it comes to competing with established brands, Mehta says the plan isn't to try and change the behaviour and the brand preferences of the older generation, who may be used to buying one product for decades. Instead, Tomato Jos targets new, young, up-and-coming professionals who are starting to make their own brand decisions, aiming to capture them as lifetime consumers.
The team is also committed to having an impact on the local communities. Tomato Jos has worked on a number of projects that include supporting education, rehabilitating roads in the area around it’s operations, and has hopes to expand to supporting a primary healthcare facility.
Mehta wishes investors could see firsthand the scale of the operation and the depth and breadth of the team. “I'm one of over 100 people who are extremely dedicated, and extremely capable, and who have built something that we're all extremely proud of. And to see the scale of it, actually seeing thousands of farmers having a different opportunity, putting lives on a different trajectory, to see the factory ... it's easy to read third largest factory in Nigeria, but it doesn't do justice to what it feels like to see this first class, world class facility," she says.
Mehta is confident that Tomato Jos presents an excellent opportunity for investors to partner with a company committed to delivering a quality product for the local market but with West African and Diaspora markets in sight, and says that the team is one of very few players positioned to win. | https://allafrica.com/stories/202204250312.html | 2022-04-25T10:26:11Z | https://allafrica.com/stories/202204250312.html | true | 1 |

Tyson Fury celebrated his knockout win over Dillian Whyte with 14-year-old amputee Marshall Janson.
Fury retained his heavyweight world titles last weekend by knocking out Whyte at Wembley with a brutal uppercut in the sixth round. 'The Gypsy King' announced his retirement after the fight and was pictured celebrating his win with Tottenham Hotspur fan Marshall.
Marshall lost his hands and legs following a severe meningococcal meningitis attack in 2008. He spent months in hospital after his vital organs failed three times. The brave teenager faces a lifetime of rehabilitation and needs a set of new hands and legs almost every year until he is at least 18.
After knocking out Whyte in front of 94,000 fans, Fury was joined in the ring by Marshall as the pair embraced. Fury put his new WBC union belt around Marshall's shoulder and hugged him. Marshall congratulated Fury on his win as the pair then posed for pictures.
What were your thoughts on Tyson Fury's win against Dillian Whyte? Let us know in the comments section below
Fury had met the 14-year-old earlier in the week after a family friend got in contact with the heavyweight champion. 'The Gypsy King' told Marshall that he would make the ring walk with him for the fight, stating: "This man's going to walk my belt out to the ring. Walk out Saturday, and we're going to raise money for his arms."
Marshall's mother Stephanie said: "He had a brilliant time, he loved it. I keep watching the video over and over again, it makes me want to cry. It was just an amazing experience.
"We asked Marshall beforehand if he was nervous and he was like 'No'. He does sometimes trip, but he doesn't bat an eyelid. Tyson is so brilliant, he's just like a normal person however famous he is."
Fury has also offered to help with fundraising for Marshall's prosthetic limbs. Marshall has previously met several other sportsman, such as Spurs forward Harry Kane and now-retired UFC champion Michael Bisping.
The 14-year-old fan was walked out onto the pitch by Spurs captain Hugo Lloris during a FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea in 2018 and has also previously trained with Kane. Marshall is also an MMA fan and was invited on stage by former UFC champion Bisping at a media day in 2018.

YAB Tuan Chow Kon Yeow, Chief Minister of Penang, expresses gratitude to TTM Technologies for setting up the 1st Southeast Asia manufacturing facility in Penang.
The new facility will address industry requirements for printed circuit board supply chain resiliency and regional diversification
YAB Tuan Chow Kon Yeow, Chief Minister of Penang; YB Dato’ Haji Abdul Halim Bin Haji Hussain, Penang Exco for Trade, Industry and Entrepreneurial Development; Ms. Lim Bee Vian, Deputy Chief Executive Officer (DCEO), Investment Development, of the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA); YBhg. Dato’ Loo Lee Lian, Chief Executive Officer, InvestPenang and Thomas Edman, President and Chief Executive Officer, TTM Technologies, Inc. were at the event. They were accompanied by Philip Titterton, Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer, TTM Technologies, Inc.; and Anthony Sandeen, President, Automotive and Medical, Industrial & Instrumentation (AMI&I) Business Unit, TTM Technologies, Inc.
TTM’s expansion to Penang, Malaysia is in direct response to customer requirements for advanced technology printed circuit board (PCB) supply chain resiliency and diversification in regions beyond China. TTM selected Penang as the location for this new plant after an extensive review of multiple countries with careful consideration of investment and operating costs, customer proximity and supply chain support. Penang was also attractive due to its well-established electrical and electronics (E&E) industry ecosystem. The new plant will serve TTM’s global commercial markets including networking communications, data center computing, and medical, industrial, and instrumentation.
YAB Tuan Chow Kon Yeow, Chief Minister of Penang, congratulated TTM on achieving this milestone. “Penang is recognized as one of the major players in the global semiconductor industry, particularly in the areas of assembly & test as well as equipment manufacturing. Underpinned by its five decades of manufacturing excellence which has paved the way for sustainable industry development, the State is committed to further strengthen its industrial cluster. With PCB and substrate being an emerging subsector in Penang, I am confident that the addition of TTM will sharpen the local talent’s capability in advanced PCB technology solutions.”
“The State, via InvestPenang, strives to bolster our efforts to outpace investors’ expectations by providing continuous facilitation and utmost support along the journey. Penang welcomes TTM to be part of our robust industrial ecosystem and I look forward to establishing a long-standing relationship with TTM in years to come,” Chow added.
This state-of-the-art, highly automated plant will be built upon approximately 27 acres of industrial land at Penang Science Park. Construction is expected to take 12 to 15 months followed by equipment installations in mid-2023. Pilot production is targeted to begin in the second half of 2023, with volume production commencing in 2024 and gradually ramping up to full Phase 1 capacity in 2025. TTM expects the new plant to achieve full run rate revenue of approximately USD180 million (approximately RM761.5 million) in 2025. The factory has also been planned to support a 25 per cent upside Phase 2 expansion.
Ms. Lim Bee Vian, Deputy Chief Executive Officer (DCEO), Investment Development, of MIDA remarked, “MIDA is confident that Malaysia’s comprehensive E&E ecosystem, the capability of our local talent, and our well-developed semiconductor supply chain that supports long-term growth provide vital building blocks for investors like TTM Technologies to expand in the region. We anticipate that TTM Technologies’ project will have a ripple effect on job creation and develop our local supply chain capabilities to meet the rapidly changing requirements of our E&E industry segments while encouraging innovation in emerging fields. We believe that this groundbreaking is only the beginning of a greater, more exciting future for our local industry and people as well as TTM Technologies’ growth.”
Thomas Edman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TTM Technologies, commented, “This is an exciting day for TTM. Today’s ceremony marks the start of an important new chapter in our mission to support our customers with differentiated high value-add engineering and PCB product solutions on a global basis. As an early-mover into Southeast Asia for the production of advanced technology PCBs, TTM is responding to our customers’ needs for supply chain resiliency, regional diversification and growth capacity.”
“We appreciate our new working relationship with MIDA and the Penang government. Their support has been invaluable and we look forward to a long and mutually beneficial business relationship as TTM grows its business presence in Penang,” concluded Edman.

ABOUT THE ACTION: Documents issued in connection with the initial public offering contained representations that were materially inaccurate, misleading, and/or incomplete because they failed to disclose, among other things, that the R1T electric pickup truck and R1S electric SUV were underpriced to such a degree that Rivian would have to raise prices shortly after the IPO and that these price increases would tarnish Rivian's reputation as a trustworthy and transparent company and would put a significant number of the existing backlog of 55,400 preorders, along with future preorders, in jeopardy of cancellation.
DEADLINE: May 6, 2022

Mayo 0-16 Galway 1-14: Tribesmen hold off late fightback to defeat Connacht rivals
Galway dominate the second-half to upset Mayo in the Connacht Championship quarter-final as the Tribesmen hold off a late comeback by the home side in Castlebar to prevail 1-14 to 0-16.
Last Updated: 25/04/22 9:51am
Galway dethroned Connacht champions Mayo with a 1-14 to 0-16 victory in Castlebar.
Padraic Joyce delivered the biggest result of his three-year reign to date, as his side held off a late fightback from their hosts to get over the line.
It was also James Horan's first championship defeat to Galway as manager.
Mayo are now headed for the last-chance saloon of the qualifiers, while the Tribesmen set up a provincial semi-final with Leitrim.
Galway made the brighter start, bursting into a 1-4 to 0-2 lead, with Shane Walsh and Damien Comer taking impressive points.
The goal came from Johnny Heaney, as the Tribesmen punished a poor kick-out from Rory Byrne.
However, Mayo were handed the initiative when Finnian Ó Laoi was black-carded for an off-the-ball collision with Cillian O'Connor, although the An Spidéal man could have considered himself unlucky.
Buoyed by the numerical advantage, Mayo looked to kick on. They gradually worked their way back into the game, pushing up on Connor Gleeson's kick-outs to pressure the restart.
Horan's charges managed to level it at half-time, 0-9 to 1-6. However, James Carr's equalising point was fortuitous as he hopped the ball twice in succession in the build-up, which went unnoticed by David Coldrick.
Another Carr point shortly after the restart gave Mayo the lead for the first time, but from there, Galway took control.
The visitors scored six points without reply with Mayo not scoring for 22 minutes, as Oisin Mullin was forced ashore due to injury.
When Heaney made it 1-14 to 0-11 in the 64th minute, it looked as if the result was secure and Galway looked to see the game out.
However, Mayo began to chip away at the lead. Scores from Lee Keegan and Ryan O'Donoghue, two O'Connor frees and a Kevin McLoughlin point reduced the gap to just a single point deep into injury-time.
Mayo had one final attack, but they were unable to work a score, with Aiden Orme's late shot trailing wide.
Ultimately, it was Galway who held out for a famous victory.
Mayo: Rory Byrne; Lee Keegan (0-1), Oisin Mullin, Padraig O'Hora; Stephen Coen, Michael Plunkett, Eoghan McLaughlin (0-1); Aidan O'Shea, Matthew Ruane; Diarmuid O'Connor, Ryan O'Donoghue (0-3, 0-1m), Conor Loftus; James Carr (0-2), Jason Doherty, Cillian O'Connor (0-5, 0-5f).
Subs: Enda Hession for Oisin Mullin (39), Aiden Orme for Jason Doherty (50), Jack Carney for Conor Loftus (58), Kevin McLoughlin (0-1) for Stephen Coen (64), Darren McHale for James Carr (68).

A young boy who can't feel any pain due to an ultra-rare condition is now asking for help to save his legs.
Zach Skitmore, nine, was just a baby when his parents, Donna, 46, and Steve, 53, suspected that he might not have any kind of pain receptor.
As a one-year-old he bit through his own tongue without realising.
Then aged four he dislocated his hip on a bouncy castle and had it popped back with no pain relief.
At six, he broke his leg and carried on walking for three days.
But the family from Norwich, Norfolk, say "while being pain-free may seem like a dream" the cruel reality is that their son can still get badly hurt without realising the full scale of the damage.
Floor layer, Steve, told The Mirror : "Alarm bells were ringing early on, we were taking him to A&E once every three or four weeks and they were looking at us suspiciously.
"When he dislocated his hip they didn't believe that he had done it because no one could sit there with a dislocated hip and not be in agony.
"They popped it back in while he was awake, without any gas and air or anything and the doctors were in disbelief.
"Although on the surface you think he's like a superhero, there are lots of things that come with it that are seriously dangerous.
"We have to check all of his food and his baths so he doesn't burn himself because he can't tell when it's too hot for him.
"We're terrified about when he goes to secondary school and other kids finding out about his condition and thinking its some kind of game to test his limits and really hurting or injuring him."
Zach's inability to feel pain is the result of an ultra-rare condition known as Congenital Insensitivity to pain (CIP), caused by two mutated genes carried by his parents.
Until Zach was diagnosed at six-years-old, the couple had no idea that they were carriers of the recessive gene - let alone that one in four of their children could be born unable to feel pain as a result.
There are only 60 documented cases of CIP in the US, and doctors have told Donna and Steve that the chances of having it are "almost a million to one".
Teacher, Donna said: "I didn't even know it was a thing until I started researching about it. It's incredibly rare.
"But this is the problem we are having, because it's so rare, most of the doctors we have seen in the UK have never dealt with this before.
"For six years I was constantly saying he can't feel pain, but no one believed me.
"I always questioned it and I had my suspicions from about the age of nine months.
"Even when he had his jabs as a baby the nurse said she had never seen a baby not react.
"If something is too hot or too painful, another child would move away, it's your natural reaction, but he doesn't have those reactions because he just doesn't know it's causing him pain.
"Superheroes can't get hurt but children with this condition can.
"He can't play football, rugby or any contact sports. We can't let him go on anything like bouncy castles or trampolines because it's just too dangerous.
"It's hard not to get upset sometimes because you want to protect your child from anything that might hurt him or cause him pain."
Zach was finally diagnosed at Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridge after badly breaking his leg and walking around on it for several days.
But while getting a diagnosis has provided some relief to the family in the form of answers, there is no cure for Zach's condition which has seen him cause untold damage to his own body without realising.
Zach has developed Charcot's joint, a progressive condition which can lead to infection, deformity and may eventually need amputation.
The condition is often brought on by unrecognised sprain or injury which have not been correctly treated.
Now his family have launched a GoFundMe to raise at least £50,000 to take him to the US where one surgeon is operating on Charcot's joints in CIP patients, where the NHS says it cannot help.
Having already spent £25,000 on IVF to fall pregnant with Zach, mum of one Donna and dad Steve refuse to give up on their special boy.
Steve said: "Any baby is special to any parent but Zach is particularly special to us because he's an IVF baby.
"I wouldn't change him for the world because he's such a lovely little boy but I do wish I could take this condition away for him."
Donna added: "The NHS doctors in the UK have done everything I think they know how to do but it's essentially got to the point where they're saying they can't do anything else for him and we can't just accept that.
"We'll do whatever it takes to get him the specialist treatment he needs."

Outside of a major trade that netted them Khalil Mack, the Chargers have been fairly quiet this offseason. They're mostly returning starters from last year's disappointing third-place finish in the AFC West, but another year for Justin Herbert will do them good heading into next year.
Playing in the hyper-competitive AFC West, the Chargers have to compete with the perennially contending Chiefs and the upgrading Raiders. Los Angeles clearly feels good about where it's at, but the draft will put the Chargers in a position to be even more competitive.
Tom Telesco has the Chargers in a better place, but there's still work to do. Here's their prognosis for the 2022 NFL Draft, along with what they can do to address their needs.
Here's a look at the Chargers' picks in the 2022 NFL Draft:

Chargers NFL draft needs
- Defensive Tackle: By far the most pressing need for the Chargers, their horrendous run defense did them in time and time again last year. Locking down a good interior lineman is a must, and it's a void they've largely left open this offseason. It's hard to imagine them not targeting one early in the draft, particularly with the amount of talent on the board on the interior defensive line.
- Cornerback: Even with the addition of J.C. Jackson, the Chargers could use some depth in the secondary. With a fairly complete roster outside of defensive tackle, they can afford to pick up another corner to complement Jackson on the depth chart.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Dmitry Kulikov scored with 1.3 seconds remaining in overtime to give the Minnesota Wild a 5-4 victory over the Nashville Predators on Sunday night.
Joel Eriksson Ek had two power-play goals and an assist, Nick Bjugstad and Kevin Fiala also scored, and Marc-Andre Fleury made 21 saves for Minnesota. The Wild have won five straight as they battle with the St. Louis Blues for second place in the Central Division and home ice for the teams’ first-round playoff series.
“It’s just a real good all-around game,” Wild coach Dean Evason said. “We did so many really good things in that hockey game that allowed us to have that opportunity to win.”
Filip Forsberg had a goal and two assists, and Matt Duchene, Ryan Johansen and Dante Fabbro also scored for Nashville. David Rittich made 42 saves and Mikael Granlund had three assists for the Predators, who have lost three of four but remain in the top wild-card position in the Western Conference. Nashville moved one point ahead of Dallas in the standings.
“I thought our guys really battled hard tonight,” Predators coach John Hynes said. “We earned a point. We’d like to get two points, but we’ve got to take some things out of it and get ready for Calgary.”
With time winding down in the extra period, Kulikov took a pass from Eriksson Ek, drove down the left side and beat Rittich with a wrist shot.
“I don’t get many of them, so I’ve got to make sure when I get them,” Kulikov said.
Bjugstad scored the game’s first goal at 11:05 of the opening period, but Forsberg answered with two seconds remaining in the first. Mikael Granlund threw a cross-ice saucer pass to Dante Fabbro on the right side. The puck hit Fabbro, then the goal post, and was sitting in the crease where Forsberg poked it in for his 40th goal of the season.
Eriksson Ek made it 2-1 at 6:36 of the second. Nashville challenged the play, alleging goaltender interference because Wild defenseman Jacob Middleton was in the crease when the goal was scored. Officials allowed the goal to stand after a video review, determining that Middleton had been pushed by a Nashville player.
“I think we’ve shown all year everybody can score, everybody can help any way they are asked to,” Eriksson Ek said. “It’s good for our team to have that depth.”
Duchene and Johansen scored power-play goals 2:58 apart in the second to give Nashville a brief 3-2 lead.
Eriksson Ek scored his second power-play goal of the game at 18:27 and Fiala followed with 22.8 seconds left in the period to send the Wild into the second intermission with a 4-3 lead.
“I felt in the start we had the momentum,” Fiala said. “You can see the shots. I think we pretty much dominated the whole game.”
Fabbro scored with 5:40 left in the third to tie it.
SPURGEON HURT
Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon suffered an upper-body injury in the first period. Forsberg checked an off-balance Spurgeon into the boards in the Minnesota zone. Spurgeon skated off, went directly to the dressing room and did not return.
“I’d love to say we kept him out, but we didn’t. He was hurt,” Evason said. “We’ll obviously evaluate, but there was no way he was going back in the game.”
40/40 CLUB
Forsberg joined Duchene as the only players in Predators history to score 40 goals in a season. Duchene notched his 40th in Nashville’s win over Calgary on Tuesday. His goal Sunday was his 41st.
Viktor Arvidsson previously had the most goals in a season by a Nashville player (34 in 2018-19).
STREAKS EXTENDED
Fiala extended his point-scoring streak to 10 games. He has 10 goals and 13 assists over that span.
Wild winger Matt Boldy had an assist, extending his career-high point-scoring streak to nine games. The stretch is a rookie franchise record for Minnesota.
UP NEXT
Predators: Host Calgary on Tuesday.
Wild: Host Arizona on Tuesday, beginning a three-game homestand to close out the regular season.

Chief Judicial Magistrate Court in Assam's Kokrajhar granted bail to Congress MLA Jignesh Mevani's in connection to a case relating to a tweet related to PM Narendra Modi.
Earlier on Sunday, the Chief Judicial Magistrate's court in Assams Kokrajhar district rejected the bail petition of Independent Gujarat MLA and Dalit activist Jignesh Mevani and extended his custody by one day.
Earlier last week, Mevani was arrested by an Assam police team from Palanpur town in Gujarat over a couple of his tweets. An FIR was filed against him after a complaint was filed by an Assam BJP leader, Arup Kumar Dey.
A case was lodged against Mevani under sections 120B (criminal conspiracy), section 153(A) (promoting enmity between two communities), 295(A), 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of peace), and sections of the IT Act.
A couple of tweets on Mevani's Twitter handle are not visible on his feed with a message displaying that the tweets have been withheld in India based on a "legal demand".
In the controversial tweet, Mevani had reportedly requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi to ensure communal harmony during his recent visit to Gujarat.
Mevani claimed that he was arrested out of a political vendetta against him. The Assam state Congress unit, had protested the arrest of the Gujarat legislator.
Elected as an independent MLA, Mevani had extended his support to Congress in September 2019.

Hanoi (VNA) –
The Vietnam Red Cross Society (VRCS) Central Committee will strive to mobilise 400 billion VND (over 17.4 million USD) to support 1
million people with difficult circumstances during the Humanitarian Month 2022 starting from May 1. According to President of the VRCS Central Committee Bui Thi Hoa, this year's event aims to call on the community to join hands in humanitarian activities, thus popularising the kindness, and meaningful actions, towards building a community of solidarity and compassion.
The peak period of the month will take place from May 8 (World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day) to May 19 (the birthday of President Ho Chi Minh – Founder and first Honorary President of the VRCS), Hoa said.
The launching ceremony of the Humanitarian Month 2022 will be broadcast live on channel VTV2 of Vietnam Television, and relayed on channel HTV1 of Ho Chi Minh Television Station.
To kick off the Humanitarian Month 2022, the VRCS Central Committee will present 15,000 multi-purpose life jackets worth 22 billion VND; first aid bags and safe houses for fishermen worth 5 billion VND to 14 provinces and cities in the central region; and donate 17 billion VND to people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
At the launching ceremony, humanitarian markets will be held for disadvantaged people affected by natural disasters and diseases. Volunteers and fishermen will be trained in first aid, and disaster prevention and response skills.
Domestic and foreign organisations and businesses that have actively accompanied and supported the Humanitarian Month will be honoured at the ceremony.
Notably, the VRCS will launch programmes to raise funds for disadvantaged fishermen, and improving nutrition for poor and disabled children.
Initiated since 2018, the Humanitarian Month has mobilised over 1,500 billion VND, helping over 3.3 million poor and disadvantaged people, creating a drastic change in the awareness of the Party committees and authorities at all levels, organisations and individuals towards the humanitarian work./. | https://en.vietnamplus.vn/one-million-disadvantaged-people-expected-to-get-support-in-humanitarian-month/227529.vnp | 2022-04-25T11:08:48Z | https://en.vietnamplus.vn/one-million-disadvantaged-people-expected-to-get-support-in-humanitarian-month/227529.vnp | true | 1 |

NOV03 Met Both Primary Endpoints for Signs and Symptoms of Dry Eye Disease
VAUGHAN, ON and LAVAL, QC and HEIDELBERG, Germany, April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Bausch + Lomb, a leading global eye health business of Bausch Health Companies Inc. (NYSE/TSX: BHC) ("Bausch Health"), and Novaliq GmbH, a biopharmaceutical company focusing on first- and best-in-class ocular therapeutics, today announced that data from the first pivotal Phase 3 trial (GOBI) of NOV03 (perfluorohexyloctane), which is being investigated as a first-in-class eye drop with a novel mechanism of action to treat the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease (DED) associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), was presented yesterday as part of a podium presentation on April 24, 2022, at the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) annual meeting in Washington, D.C.
"The data show that NOV03 met both primary endpoints of total Corneal Fluorescein Staining, a measure that assesses damage to the eye, and visual analogue scale dryness score at day 57," said Joseph Tauber, M.D., founder of Tauber Eye Center in Kansas City, Mo., and leading NOV03 trial investigator. "The fact that NOV03 met both primary endpoints in a single study, which is a rare event in clinical trials in dry eye disease, reinforces its potential as a treatment for addressing both the signs and symptoms of the disease. The unique mechanism of action makes NOV03 an exciting investigational treatment for the signs and symptoms of dry eye."
DED is one of the most common ocular surface disorders, causing discomfort for millions of Americans. MGD is a major cause of the development and progression of evaporative DED, which is caused by a deficient tear film lipid layer that leads to increased tear evaporation.1,2
"There is currently no pharmaceutical therapy in the United States approved for the treatment of dry eye disease associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction, and these data support NOV03 as a potential first-in-class option for the treatment of dry eye disease associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction," said Joseph C. Papa, chairman and CEO, Bausch Health. "We intend to submit for approval during the second quarter of 2022."
The data from the Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, hypotonic saline-controlled, double masked GOBI study was based on results from 597 participants ages 18 years and older who were randomized to either receive treatment with NOV03 four times daily or hyptonic saline solution four times daily (n=303 NOV03; n=294 saline). The key points of the study include:
- On day 57, change from baseline in total Corneal Fluorescein Staining (tCFS) was statistically significant in the NOV03 arm compared to the control saline group (-2.0 [2.6] vs. -1.0 [2.7]) (P<0.001) (primary endpoint).
- Additionally on day 57, eye dryness VAS score was statistically significantly improved in the NOV03 arm compared to control group (-27.4 [27.9] vs. -19.7 [26.6]) (P<0.001) (primary endpoint).
- tCFS and eye dryness VAS score was also statistically significant at day 15 (secondary endpoint).
In the study, NOV03 was well tolerated with few subjects experiencing ocular adverse events (AE) (8.3% NOV03 group, 5.1% control group). Blurred vision, mostly mild and transient, was the only AE that occurred in a higher proportion of subjects treated with NOV03 versus control (3.0% vs 0.3%).

Matt Di Angelo has revealed he's expecting twins with his doting wife Sofia Perry.
The soon-to-be parents shared the exciting news on Instagram with a sweet gender reveal video where they learned they're expecting a baby boy and a baby girl.
Former EastEnders star Matt, 34, captioned the memorable moment on social media: "'The lottery of life', still a fair way to go but we feel VERY blessed."
He joked: "The boys name will be JACK, and the girls will be POT. [cry laughing emoji]."
After he shared the exciting news with his 59,000 followers on the popular social media platform, a slew of his fellow co-stars flooded to congratulate him.
I'm A Celebrity star Adam Woodyatt wrote: "Congratulations" as Emma Barton added: "Beautiful [three heart emojis]."
Ridley Road actor Danny Hatchard penned: "Huge congratulations brother."
The established actor famously played the role of rapist Dean Wicks in the BBC One soap, but he is also known for his role as con-artist Sean in the super-cool drama Hustle.
He caused chaos on Albert Square for two years between 2006 and 2008 before he return to the show in 2014 to 2016.
Matt then joined the star-studded cast of Strictly Come Dancing back in 2007 where he sadly lost out to Alesha Dixon.
Throughout his time on the show, rumours swirled around the actor and his affair with dance partner Flavia Cacace.
But in 2021, the star tied the knot with his loving wife Sofia and it is clear to see the happy couple are over the moon to start a family together.

FIRST QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL AND PRODUCTION SUMMARY
Attributable gold production 1 decreased 8 percent to 1,344 thousand ounces from the prior year quarter primarily due to lower mill throughput at CC&V, Tanami, Porcupine and Nevada Gold Mines, lower ore grades milled at Peñasquito, Pueblo Viejo, Éléonore and Porcupine, and a build-up of in-circuit inventory. These decreases were partially offset by higher ore grade milled at Boddington and higher production at Yanacocha due to the acquisition of Buenaventura's 43.65% ownership in February 2022.
Gold CAS totaled $1.2 billion for the quarter. Gold CAS per ounce 2 increased 18 percent to $890 per ounce from the prior year quarter primarily due to lower ounces sold, higher direct operating costs, a draw-down of in-circuit inventory and lower by-product credits at Yanacocha.
Gold AISC per ounce 3 increased 11 percent to $1,156 per ounce from the prior year quarter primarily due to higher CAS per ounce.
Attributable gold equivalent ounce (GEO) production from other metals increased 10 percent to 350 thousand ounces primarily due to higher ore grade milled at Peñasquito and Boddington.
CAS from other metals totaled $251 million for the quarter. CAS per GEO 2 increased 29 percent to $717 per ounce from the prior year quarter primarily due to higher allocation of costs to other metals at Peñasquito.
AISC per GEO 3 increased 22 percent to $997 per ounce primarily due to higher CAS per GEO.
Net income from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders was $432 million or $0.54 per diluted share, a decrease of $106 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to lower gold sales volumes, higher CAS, a pension settlement charge of $130 million, the loss recognized on the sale of the La Zanja equity method investment in 2022 compared to a gain on the sale of TMAC in 2021 and higher reclamation and remediation charges. These decreases were partially offset by higher average realized metal prices, unrealized gains on marketable and other equity securities in 2022 compared to unrealized losses in 2021 and lower income tax expense.
Adjusted net income 4 was $546 million or $0.69 per diluted share, compared to $594 million or $0.74 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Primary adjustments to first quarter net income include pension settlement charges, changes in the fair value of investments, the loss recognized on the sale of the La Zanja equity method investment, reclamation and remediation charges, settlement costs, a voluntary contribution made to support humanitarian efforts in Ukraine, and valuation allowance and other tax adjustments.
Adjusted EBITDA 5 decreased 5 percent to $1.4 billion for the quarter, compared to $1.5 billion for the prior year quarter.
Revenue increased 5 percent from the prior year quarter to $3.0 billion primarily due to higher average realized gold prices and higher copper sales volumes, which were partially offset by lower gold sales volumes.
Average realized price 6 for gold was $1,892, an increase of $141 per ounce over the prior year quarter. Average realized gold price includes $1,883 per ounce of gross price received, the favorable impact of $17 per ounce mark-to-market on provisionally-priced sales and reductions of $8 per ounce for treatment and refining charges.
Capital expenditures 7 increased 10 percent from the prior year quarter to $437 million primarily due to higher development capital spend, which was partially offset by lower sustaining capital spend. Development capital expenditures in 2022 primarily include advancing Tanami Expansion 2, Yanacocha Sulfides, Ahafo North, Pamour and Cerro Negro District Expansion 1.
Consolidated operating cash flow from continuing operations decreased 18 percent from the prior year quarter to $689 million primarily due to lower gold sales volumes and an increase in accounts receivable related to timing of cash receipts. These decreases were partially offset by higher average realized metal prices. Free Cash Flow 8 also decreased to $252 million primarily due to lower operating cash flow and higher development capital expenditures as described above.
Balance sheet and liquidity ended the quarter with $4.3 billion of consolidated cash and approximately $7.3 billion of liquidity; reported net debt to adjusted EBITDA of 0.3x 9 .
Nevada Gold Mines (NGM) attributable gold production was 288 thousand ounces, with CAS of $899 per ounce and AISC of $1,086 per ounce for the first quarter. NGM EBITDA 10 was $278 million.
Pueblo Viejo (PV) attributable gold production was 69 thousand ounces for the quarter. Pueblo Viejo EBITDA 10 was $80 million and cash distributions received for the Company's equity method investment totaled $49 million in the first quarter.
COVID UPDATE
Newmont continues to maintain wide-ranging protective measures for its workforce and neighboring communities, including screening, physical distancing, deep cleaning and avoiding exposure for at-risk individuals. The Company incurred incremental Covid specific costs of $17 million during the quarter for activities such as additional health and safety procedures, increased transportation and distributions from the Newmont Global Community Support Fund. The majority of the additional incremental Covid specific costs have not been adjusted from our non-GAAP metrics.
PROJECTS UPDATE 11
Newmont's project pipeline supports stable production with improving margins and mine life. Newmont's 2022 and longer-term outlook includes current development capital costs and production related to Tanami Expansion 2, Ahafo North, Yanacocha Sulfides, Pamour and Cerro Negro District Expansion 1. Additional projects not listed below represent incremental improvements to the Company's outlook.
- Tanami Expansion 2 (Australia) secures Tanami's future as a long-life, low-cost producer with potential to extend mine life beyond 2040 through the addition of a 1,460 meter hoisting shaft and supporting infrastructure to process 3.3 million tonnes per year and provide a platform for future growth. The expansion is expected to increase average annual gold production by approximately 150,000 to 200,000 ounces per year for the first five years and is expected to reduce operating costs by approximately 10 percent. Capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $850 and $950 million with a commercial production date in 2024. Development costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $333 million, of which $49 million related to the first quarter of 2022.
- Ahafo North (Africa) expands our existing footprint in Ghana with four open pit mines and a stand-alone mill located approximately 30 kilometers from the Company's Ahafo South operations. The project is expected to add between 275,000 and 325,000 ounces per year with all-in sustaining costs between $600 to $700 per ounce for the first five full years of production (2024-2028). Capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $750 and $850 million with a construction completion date in late 2023 and commercial production in 2024. Ahafo North is the best unmined gold deposit in West Africa with approximately 3.5 million ounces of Reserves and more than 1 million ounces of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources and significant upside potential to extend beyond Ahafo North's current 13-year mine life. Development costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $95 million, of which $28 million related to the first quarter of 2022.
- Yanacocha Sulfides 12 (South America) will develop the first phase of sulfide deposits and an integrated processing circuit, including an autoclave to produce 45% gold, 45% copper and 10% silver. The project is expected to add average annual production of 525,000 gold equivalent ounces per year with all-in sustaining costs between $700 and $800 per ounce for the first five full years of production (2027-2031). Total capital costs for the project are estimated at $2.5 billion, with an investment decision expected in late 2022 and a three year development period. The first phase focuses on developing the Yanacocha Verde and Chaquicocha deposits to extend Yanacocha's operations beyond 2040 with second and third phases having the potential to extend life for multiple decades.
- Pamour (North America) extends the life of Porcupine and maintains production beginning in 2024. The project will optimize mill capacity, adding volume and supporting high grade ore from Borden and Hoyle Pond, while supporting further exploration in a highly prospective and proven mining district. An investment decision is expected in the second half of 2022 with estimated capital costs between $350 and $450 million.
- Cerro Negro District Expansion 1 (South America) includes the simultaneous development of the Marianas and Eastern districts to extend the mine life of Cerro Negro beyond 2030. The project is expected to improve production to above 350,000 ounces beginning in 2024, while improving all-in sustaining costs to between $800 and $900 per ounce. Capital costs for the project are estimated to be approximately $300 million. This project provides a platform for further exploration and future growth through additional expansions.

OUTLOOK
Newmont's outlook reflects increasing gold production and ongoing investment in its operating assets and most promising growth prospects. Outlook includes current development capital costs and production related to Tanami Expansion 2, Ahafo North, Yanacocha Sulfides, Pamour at Porcupine and Cerro Negro District Expansion 1.
Newmont continues to develop our mine plan utilizing a $1,200 per ounce gold price assumption. However, due to sustained higher gold prices over the last two years, Newmont's 2022 outlook assumes an $1,800 per ounce revenue gold price for CAS and AISC to reflect higher costs from inflation, royalties and production taxes. In 2022, an additional 5% of cost escalation is incorporated into our direct operating costs related to labor, energy, and material and supplies. 2022 and longer-term outlook assumes a $30 per ounce impact from production taxes and royalties attributable to higher gold prices. Outlook assumes operations continue without major Covid-related interruptions. Newmont continues to maintain wide-ranging protective measures for its workforce and neighboring communities, including screening, physical distancing, deep cleaning and avoiding exposure for at-risk individuals, which are expected to impact AISC per gold equivalent ounce by approximately $10 per ounce. If at any point the Company determines that continuing operations poses an increased risk to our workforce or host communities, it will reduce operational activities up to, and including, care and maintenance and management of critical environmental systems. Please see the cautionary statement for additional information.
For a more detailed discussion and outlook presented at a $1,200 per ounce gold price assumption, see the Company's 2022 and Longer-Term Outlook released on December 2, 2021, available on www.newmont.com . The attributable site-level production for Yanacocha and attributable development capital guidance below accounts for the acquisition of Buenaventura's 43.65% interest in Yanacocha, as announced on February 8, 2022. All other guidance metrics remain unchanged from the Company's 2022 and Longer-Term Outlook as announced on December 2, 2021.
Five Year Outlook (+/- 5%): $1,800/oz Gold Price Assumption
*Attributable basis; **Attributable co-product gold equivalent ounces; includes copper, zinc, silver and lead
Consolidated Expense Outlook
a The adjusted tax rate excludes certain items such as tax valuation allowance adjustments.
b Assuming average prices of $1,800 per ounce for gold, $3.25 per pound for copper, $23.00 per ounce for silver, $0.95 per pound for lead, and $1.15 per pound for zinc and achievement of current production and sales volumes and cost estimates, we estimate our consolidated adjusted effective tax rate related to continuing operations for 2022 will be between 30%-34%.
2022 Site Outlook a
a 2022 outlook projections are considered forward-looking statements and represent management's good faith estimates or expectations of future production results as of December 2, 2021. Outlook is based upon certain assumptions, including, but not limited to, metal prices, oil prices, certain exchange rates and other assumptions. For example, 2022 Outlook assumes $1,800/oz Au, $3.25/lb Cu, $23.00/oz Ag, $1.15/lb Zn, $0.95/lb Pb, $0.75 USD/AUD exchange rate, $0.80 USD/CAD exchange rate and $60/barrel WTI. Production, CAS, AISC and capital estimates exclude projects that have not yet been approved, except for Yanacocha Sulfides, Pamour and Cerro Negro District Expansion 1 which are included in Outlook. The potential impact on inventory valuation as a result of lower prices, input costs, and project decisions are not included as part of this Outlook. Assumptions used for purposes of Outlook may prove to be incorrect and actual results may differ from those anticipated, including variation beyond a +/-5% range. Outlook cannot be guaranteed. As such, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon Outlook and forward-looking statements as there can be no assurance that the plans, assumptions or expectations upon which they are placed will occur. Amounts may not recalculate to totals due to rounding. The attributable production guidance accounts for the acquisition of Buenaventura's 43.65% interest in Yanacocha, as announced on February 8, 2022. All other guidance metrics remain unchanged from the Company's outlook as announced on December 2, 2021. See cautionary at the end of this release.
b All-in sustaining costs (AISC) as used in the Company's Outlook is a non-GAAP metric; see below for further information and reconciliation to consolidated 2022 CAS outlook.
c Consolidated production for Yanacocha and Merian is presented on a total production basis for the mine site; attributable production represents a 95% interest for Yanacocha and a 75% interest for Merian.
d Attributable production includes Newmont's 40% interest in Pueblo Viejo, which is accounted for as an equity method investment.
e Represents the ownership interest in the Nevada Gold Mines (NGM) joint venture. NGM is owned 38.5% by Newmont and owned 61.5% and operated by Barrick. The Company accounts for its interest in NGM using the proportionate consolidation method, thereby recognizing its pro-rata share of the assets, liabilities and operations of NGM.
f Gold equivalent ounces (GEO) are calculated as pounds or ounces produced multiplied by the ratio of the other metal's price to the gold price, using Gold ($1,200/oz.), Copper ($3.25/lb.), Silver ($23.00/oz.), Lead ($0.95/lb.), and Zinc ($1.15/lb.) pricing.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by GAAP. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Unless otherwise noted, we present the Non-GAAP financial measures of our continuing operations in the tables below.
Adjusted net income (loss)
Management uses Adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Company's operating performance and for planning and forecasting future business operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income (loss) allows investors and others to understand the results of the continuing operations of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries relating to the sale of products, by excluding certain items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period. Adjustments to continuing operations are presented before tax and net of our partners' noncontrolling interests, when applicable. The tax effect of adjustments is presented in the Tax effect of adjustments line and is calculated using the applicable regional tax rate. Management's determination of the components of Adjusted net income (loss) are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted net income (loss) as follows:
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company's operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, net income (loss), operating income (loss), or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP, and do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. Although Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements by other companies, our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. Management's determination of the components of Adjusted EBITDA are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as follows:
Additionally, the Company uses Pueblo Viejo EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure to evaluate the operating performance of its investment in the Pueblo Viejo mine. Pueblo Viejo EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, Equity income (loss) of affiliates , as defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash distributions from Pueblo Viejo will match Pueblo Viejo EBITDA or earnings from affiliates. Although the Company has the ability to exert significant influence, it does not have direct control over the operations or resulting revenues and expenses, nor does it proportionately consolidate its investment in Pueblo Viejo. The Company believes that Pueblo Viejo EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the operating results of its investment in Pueblo Viejo, in the same manner as management and the Board of Directors. Equity income (loss) of affiliates is reconciled to Pueblo Viejo EBITDA as follows:
The Company uses NGM EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure to evaluate the operating performance of its investment in Nevada Gold Mines (NGM). NGM EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, Income (loss) before income and mining tax and other items, as defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash distributions from NGM will match NGM EBITDA. Although the Company has the ability to exert significant influence and proportionally consolidates its 38.5% interest in NGM, it does not have direct control over the operations or resulting revenues and expenses of its investment in NGM. The Company believes that NGM EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the operating results of its investment in NGM, in the same manner as management and the Board of Directors. Income (loss) before income and mining tax and other items is reconciled to NGM EBITDA as follows:
Free Cash Flow
Management uses Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations. Free Cash Flow is Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of discontinued operations less Additions to property, plant and mine development as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes Free Cash Flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company's performance with its competitors. Although Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company's calculation of Free Cash Flow is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.
The presentation of non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. The Company's definition of Free Cash Flow is limited in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view Free Cash Flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities , which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow, as well as information regarding Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities and Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.
Attributable Free Cash Flow
Management uses Attributable Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations that are attributable to the Company. Attributable Free Cash Flow is Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities after deducting net cash flows from operations attributable to noncontrolling interests less Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of discontinued operations after deducting net cash flows from discontinued operations attributable to noncontrolling interests less Additions to property, plant and mine development after deducting property, plant and mine development attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company believes that Attributable Free Cash Flow is useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company's performance with its competitors. Although Attributable Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company's calculation of Attributable Free Cash Flow is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.
The presentation of non-GAAP Attributable Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to Net income attributable to Newmont stockholders as an indicator of the Company's performance, or as an alternative to Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities as a measure of liquidity as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. The Company's definition of Attributable Free Cash Flow is limited in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view Attributable Free Cash Flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The following tables set forth a reconciliation of Attributable Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities , which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Attributable Free Cash Flow, as well as information regarding Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities and Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.
Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce
Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are calculated by dividing the costs applicable to sales of gold and other metals by gold ounces or gold equivalent ounces sold, respectively. These measures are calculated for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce statistics are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.
The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.
Costs applicable to sales per ounce
Costs applicable to sales per gold equivalent ounce
Costs applicable to sales per ounce for Nevada Gold Mines (NGM)
All-In Sustaining Costs
Newmont has developed a metric that expands on GAAP measures, such as cost of goods sold, and non-GAAP measures, such as costs applicable to sales per ounce, to provide visibility into the economics of our mining operations related to expenditures, operating performance and the ability to generate cash flow from our continuing operations.
Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost of goods sold, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain production. Therefore, we believe that all-in sustaining costs is a non-GAAP measure that provides additional information to management, investors and analysts that aids in the understanding of the economics of our operations and performance compared to other producers and provides investors visibility by better defining the total costs associated with production.
All-in sustaining cost amounts are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks such as in IFRS, or by reflecting the benefit from selling non-gold metals as a reduction to AISC. Differences may also arise related to definitional differences of sustaining versus development (i.e. non-sustaining) activities based upon each company's internal policies.
The following disclosure provides information regarding the adjustments made in determining the all-in sustaining costs measure:
Costs applicable to sales . Includes all direct and indirect costs related to current production incurred to execute the current mine plan. We exclude certain exceptional or unusual amounts from CAS, such as significant revisions to recovery amounts. CAS includes by-product credits from certain metals obtained during the process of extracting and processing the primary ore-body. CAS is accounted for on an accrual basis and excludes Depreciation and amortization and Reclamation and remediation , which is consistent with our presentation of CAS on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In determining AISC, only the CAS associated with producing and selling an ounce of gold is included in the measure. Therefore, the amount of gold CAS included in AISC is derived from the CAS presented in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations less the amount of CAS attributable to the production of other metals. The other metals' CAS at those mine sites is disclosed in Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The allocation of CAS between gold and other metals is based upon the relative sales value of gold and other metals produced during the period.
Reclamation costs . Includes accretion expense related to reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the related ARC for the Company's operating properties. Accretion related to the reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the ARC assets for reclamation does not reflect annual cash outflows but are calculated in accordance with GAAP. The accretion and amortization reflect the periodic costs of reclamation associated with current production and are therefore included in the measure. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals.
Advanced projects, research and development and exploration . Includes incurred expenses related to projects that are designed to sustain current production and exploration. We note that as current reserves are depleted, exploration and advanced projects are necessary for us to replace the depleting reserves or enhance the recovery and processing of the current reserves to sustain production at existing operations. As these costs relate to sustaining our production, and are considered a continuing cost of a mining company, these costs are included in the AISC measure. These costs are derived from the Advanced projects, research and development and Exploration amounts presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations less incurred expenses related to the development of new operations, or related to major projects at existing operations where these projects will materially benefit the operation in the future. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.
General and administrative . Includes costs related to administrative tasks not directly related to current production, but rather related to supporting our corporate structure and fulfilling our obligations to operate as a public company. Including these expenses in the AISC metric provides visibility of the impact that general and administrative activities have on current operations and profitability on a per ounce basis. We allocate these costs to gold and other metals at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.
Treatment and refining costs . Includes costs paid to smelters for treatment and refining of our concentrates to produce the salable metal. These costs are presented net as a reduction of Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals.
Sustaining capital and finance lease payments . We determined sustaining capital and finance lease payments as those capital expenditures and finance lease payments that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan. We determined development (i.e. non-sustaining) capital expenditures and finance lease payments to be those payments used to develop new operations or related to projects at existing operations where those projects will materially benefit the operation and are excluded from the calculation of AISC. The classification of sustaining and development capital projects and finance leases is based on a systematic review of our project portfolio in light of the nature of each project. Sustaining capital and finance lease payments are relevant to the AISC metric as these are needed to maintain the Company's current operations and provide improved transparency related to our ability to finance these expenditures from current operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.
A reconciliation of the 2022 Gold AISC outlook to the 2022 Gold CAS outlook, the 2022 Co-product AISC outlook to the 2022 Co-product CAS outlook and the 2022 Total GEO AISC outlook to the 2022 Total GEO CAS outlook are provided below. The estimates in the table below are considered "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbor created by such sections and other applicable laws.
Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio
Management uses net debt to Adjusted EBITDA as non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company's operating performance, including our ability to generate earnings sufficient to service our debt. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA represents the ratio of the Company's debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, to Adjusted EBITDA. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, net income (loss), operating income (loss), or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. Although Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements by other companies, our calculation of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA measure is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. The Company believes that net debt to Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. Management's determination of the components of net debt to Adjusted EBITDA is evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted EBITDA as follows:
Net average realized price per ounce/ pound
Average realized price per ounce/ pound are non-GAAP financial measures. The measures are calculated by dividing the net consolidated gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc sales by the consolidated gold ounces, copper pounds, silver ounces, lead pounds and zinc pounds sold, respectively. These measures are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Average realized price per ounce/ pound statistics are intended to provide additional information only, do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.
The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure:
Gold by-product metrics
Copper, sliver, lead and zinc are by-products often obtained during the process of extracting and processing the primary ore-body. In our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements, the value of these by-products is recorded as a credit to our CAS and the value of the primary ore is recorded as Sales. In certain instances, copper, silver, lead and zinc are co-products, or a significant resource in the primary ore-body, and the revenue is recorded as Sales in our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements.
Gold by-product metrics are non-GAAP financial measures that serve as a basis for comparing the Company's performance with certain competitors. As Newmont's operations are primarily focused on gold production, "Gold by-product metrics" were developed to allow investors to view Sales, CAS per ounce and AISC per ounce calculations that classify all copper, silver, lead and zinc production as a by-product, even when copper, silver, lead or zinc is a significant resource in the primary ore-body. These metrics are calculated by subtracting copper, silver, lead and zinc sales recognized from Sales and including these amounts as offsets to CAS.
Gold by-product metrics are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. These metrics are intended to provide supplemental information only, do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks, such as in IFRS.
The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures:

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements, Including Outlook:
This news release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbor created by such sections and other applicable laws. Where a forward-looking statement expresses or implies an expectation or belief as to future events or results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed, projected or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition; and often contain words such as "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "will," "would," "estimate," "expect," "believe," or "potential." Forward-looking statements in this news release may include, without limitation, (i) estimates of future production and sales, including production outlook, average future production and upside potential; (ii) estimates of future costs applicable to sales and all-in sustaining costs; (iii) estimates of future capital expenditures, including development and sustaining capital; (iv) expectations regarding the Tanami Expansion 2, Ahafo North, Yanacocha Sulfides, Pamour and Cerro Negro District Expansion 1 projects, including, without limitation, expectations for production, milling, costs applicable to sales and all-in sustaining costs, capital costs, mine life extension, construction completion, commercial production and other timelines; (v) expectations regarding future investments or divestitures; (vi) expectations regarding free cash flow and returns to stockholders, including with respect to future dividends and future share repurchases; and (vii) other outlook. Estimates or expectations of future events or results are based upon certain assumptions, which may prove to be incorrect. Such assumptions, include, but are not limited to: (i) there being no significant change to current geotechnical, metallurgical, hydrological and other physical conditions; (ii) permitting, development, operations and expansion of operations and projects being consistent with current expectations and mine plans; (iii) political developments in any jurisdiction in which the Company operates being consistent with its current expectations; (iv) certain exchange rate assumptions; (v) certain price assumptions for gold, copper, silver, zinc, lead and oil; (vi) prices for key supplies; (vii) the accuracy of current mineral reserve and mineralized material estimates; and (viii) other planning assumptions. Uncertainties relating to the impacts of Covid-19, include, without limitation, general macroeconomic uncertainty and changing market conditions, changing restrictions on the mining industry in the jurisdictions in which we operate, the ability to operate following changing governmental restrictions on travel and operations (including, without limitation, the duration of restrictions, including access to sites, ability to transport and ship doré, access to processing and refinery facilities, impacts to international trade, impacts to supply chain, including price, availability of goods, ability to receive supplies and fuel, impacts to productivity and operations in connection with decisions intended to protect the health and safety of the workforce, their families and neighboring communities), the impact of additional waves or variations of Covid, and the availability and impact of Covid vaccinations in the areas and countries in which we operate. Such uncertainties could result in operating sites being placed into care and maintenance and impact estimates, costs and timing of projects. Although the Company does not currently have operations in Ukraine, Russia or other parts of Europe, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has resulted in uncertainties in the market which could impact certain planning assumptions, including, but not limited to commodity and currency prices, costs and supply chain availabilities. Investors are reminded that future dividends beyond the dividend payable on June 16, 2022 to holders of record at the close of business on June 2, 2022 have not yet been approved or declared by the Board of Directors, and an annualized dividend payout or dividend yield has not been declared by the Board. Management's expectations with respect to future dividends are "forward-looking statements" and the Company's dividend framework is non-binding. The declaration and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be determined based on Newmont's financial results, balance sheet strength, cash and liquidity requirements, future prospects, gold and commodity prices, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board. Investors are also cautioned that the extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including trading volume, market conditions, legal requirements, business conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be discontinued at any time, and the program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares of its common stock or to repurchase the full authorized amount during the authorization period. Consequently, the Board of Directors may revise or terminate such share repurchase authorization in the future. For a more detailed discussion of risks and other factors that might impact future looking statements, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, each filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), under the heading "Risk Factors", available on the SEC website or www.newmont.com . The Company does not undertake any obligation to release publicly revisions to any "forward-looking statement," including, without limitation, outlook, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Investors should not assume that any lack of update to a previously issued "forward-looking statement" constitutes a reaffirmation of that statement. Continued reliance on "forward-looking statements" is at investors' own risk.
Notice Regarding Reserve and Resource:
Unless otherwise stated herein, the reserves stated in this release represent estimates at December 31, 2021, which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination. Estimates of proven and probable reserves are subject to considerable uncertainty. Such estimates are, or will be, to a large extent, based on metal prices and interpretations of geologic data obtained from drill holes and other exploration techniques, which data may not necessarily be indicative of future results. Additionally, resource does not indicate proven and probable reserves as defined by the SEC or the Company's standards. Estimates of measured, indicated and inferred resource are subject to further exploration and development, and are, therefore, subject to considerable uncertainty. Inferred resources, in particular, have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and their economic and legal feasibility. The Company cannot be certain that any part or parts of the resource will ever be converted into reserves. For additional information on our reserves and resources, please see Item 2 of the Company's Form 10-K, filed on February 24, 2022 with the SEC.

When nature calls! Woman plunges HEAD FIRST into filthy national forest vault toilet after dropping her phone and using dog leash as harness to lower herself in to retrieve it
A California woman plunged head-first into a filthy vault toilet at a national forest after dropping her phone in, then falling as she tried to retrieve it.
The unidentified woman lost her handset while visiting Mount Walker in Washington Tuesday during a trip to the Olympic National Forest.
She then decided to fashion a makeshift harness out of a dog leash to try lowering herself into the toilet, only for it to collapse under her weight - and send her flying head-first into the hole filled with human waste.
After 20 minutes, the woman managed to retrieve her device, then used it to call 911 to summon help.
The stomach-churning incident was detailed in a Facebook post by the Brinnon Fire Department, with two firefighters snapped posing outside the toilets in the wake of the rescue.

Vault toilets are outdoor bathroom facilities housed in permanent structures, which don't flush or utilize water, and are sometimes referred to as pit toilets due to the underground tank that holds the waste.
The waste is removed when a truck comes to pump it out and transport it to a water treatment facility.
Meanwhile, rescue crews were eventually able to free the woman from the toilet after making a 'cribbing platform' that was lowered down for the woman to stand on.
After being pulled to safety, she was then washed down and given a Tyvek hazmat suit to wear, according to the Brinnon Fire Department.
The woman told rescue crews that she was uninjured, and refused medical attention despite being strongly encouraged to after being exposed to human waste, which can cause infections.
'The patient was extremely fortunate not to be overcome by toxic gases or sustain injury,' the Brinnon Fire Department said.
The woman thanked the first responders and continued on her journey back to California, the Facebook post went on to say.
In 2013, an elderly man similarly plummeted five feet into a toilet pit filled with human waste before he was rescued more than an hour later, authorities said at the time.
The unidentified man was inappropriately standing atop one of the toilets at Carters Lake in northwest Georgia when he slipped and fell in, according to the Dalton Daily Citizen.
The man landed inside the refuse pit where the waste is collected from the above toilets before allowed to naturally decompose, park officials said.
Lisa Parker, a spokeswoman for the US Army Corps of Engineers, says the man was trapped for about 70 minutes before help arrived.
'We’ve had these type of toilet facilities for 10 to 15 years, and he just mis-used the toilet, unfortunately,' she told the Dalton Daily Citizen.
She described him as 'covered in mess and scraped up.'
Exposure to such human waste can result in cholera and typhoid fever if left untreated. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2579198217233/when-nature-calls-woman-plunges-head-first-into-filthy-national-forest-vault-toilet-after-dropping-her-phone-and-using-dog-leash-as-harness-to-lower-herself-in-to-retrieve-it | 2022-04-25T11:39:42Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2579198217233/when-nature-calls-woman-plunges-head-first-into-filthy-national-forest-vault-toilet-after-dropping-her-phone-and-using-dog-leash-as-harness-to-lower-herself-in-to-retrieve-it | false | 4 |

The Plant Paradox™ and Dr. Gundry's lectin-free diet continues to transform countless lives
PALM SPRINGS, Calif., April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Since its debut five years ago, Dr. Gundry's The Plant Paradox has completely revolutionized the functional medicine landscape and the definition of "healthy" food as we know it. Major names like Kelly Clarkson proclaimed the Plant Paradox eating protocol helped ward off her health issues and Usher credited the diet for his dramatic weight loss transformation before filming Hands of Stone.
"Every single day I hear stories from people about how they tried countless diets and saw umpteen physicians, only to find that nothing worked to help them feel better, until they read my book and followed my program," says Dr. Gundry. "It's hearing these incredible health transformations that keeps me inspired; seeing patients seven days a week and sharing any new morsel of information to help as many people as possible reclaim their health and die young at a ripe old age."
In The Plant Paradox, Steven Gundry MD reveals that gluten is just one type of lectin, a class of potentially harmful plant proteins. Lectins are found not only in most grains like wheat but also in the gluten-free foods most of us commonly regard as healthy, including nightshade vegetables, non-pressure cooked beans, peanuts and cashews, and conventional meat and dairy products. These proteins, which are found in the hulls, grains, skins, rinds, and leaves of plants, are manufactured by plants to protect themselves from predators (including humans). Once ingested, they can unleash a kind of "chemical warfare" in our bodies, causing certain reactions like "leaky gut" that can lead to weight gain and serious health issues.
Since its release, The Plant Paradox—published by Harper Wave— has allowed millions of readers around the world access to this program, including Dr. Gundry's Yes and No food list, which was once only available at his waitlist-only clinics. The Plant Paradox diet has also sparked the terms "lectin free" and "plant paradox" to go viral across global platforms, inspiring new hashtags, community support groups, social supper clubs, and more. Based on these "hidden in plain sight", cutting-edge findings in each new book, Dr. Gundry continues to be in the media spotlight, interviewed by innumerable top-tier outlets including Goop, New York Times, Morning Joe and many more.
Plant Paradox Reviews
From the thousands of 5-star positive Plant Paradox reviews on Amazon and other platforms, here are just a few of the lives changed from the revolutionary, science-backed information Dr Gundry revealed:
"Plant Paradox has changed my life. There is still work to do but I'm really grateful to Dr. Gundry."* - Kara R, April 20, 2022
"I've read a lot of harsh reviews about Dr. Gundry's Plant Paradox and I'm glad I ignored it and read it for myself. Totally works and changed my life. Seriously!*, Sydney, March 28, 2022
"Having been on the Plant Paradox journey for over the last 3 years I can say it has completely transformed my life for the better. I am energized with helping others into this lifestyle."* - John D, September 15, 2021
*All individuals are unique. Your results can and will vary.

NOV03 Met Both Primary Endpoints for Signs and Symptoms of Dry Eye Disease
VAUGHAN, ON and LAVAL, QC and HEIDELBERG, Germany, April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Bausch + Lomb, a leading global eye health business of Bausch Health Companies Inc. (NYSE/TSX: BHC) ("Bausch Health"), and Novaliq GmbH, a biopharmaceutical company focusing on first- and best-in-class ocular therapeutics, today announced that data from the first pivotal Phase 3 trial (GOBI) of NOV03 (perfluorohexyloctane), which is being investigated as a first-in-class eye drop with a novel mechanism of action to treat the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease (DED) associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), was presented yesterday as part of a podium presentation on April 24, 2022, at the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) annual meeting in Washington, D.C.
"The data show that NOV03 met both primary endpoints of total Corneal Fluorescein Staining, a measure that assesses damage to the eye, and visual analogue scale dryness score at day 57," said Joseph Tauber, M.D., founder of Tauber Eye Center in Kansas City, Mo., and leading NOV03 trial investigator. "The fact that NOV03 met both primary endpoints in a single study, which is a rare event in clinical trials in dry eye disease, reinforces its potential as a treatment for addressing both the signs and symptoms of the disease. The unique mechanism of action makes NOV03 an exciting investigational treatment for the signs and symptoms of dry eye."
DED is one of the most common ocular surface disorders, causing discomfort for millions of Americans. MGD is a major cause of the development and progression of evaporative DED, which is caused by a deficient tear film lipid layer that leads to increased tear evaporation.1,2
"There is currently no pharmaceutical therapy in the United States approved for the treatment of dry eye disease associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction, and these data support NOV03 as a potential first-in-class option for the treatment of dry eye disease associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction," said Joseph C. Papa, chairman and CEO, Bausch Health. "We intend to submit for approval during the second quarter of 2022."
The data from the Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, hypotonic saline-controlled, double masked GOBI study was based on results from 597 participants ages 18 years and older who were randomized to either receive treatment with NOV03 four times daily or hyptonic saline solution four times daily (n=303 NOV03; n=294 saline). The key points of the study include:
- On day 57, change from baseline in total Corneal Fluorescein Staining (tCFS) was statistically significant in the NOV03 arm compared to the control saline group (-2.0 [2.6] vs. -1.0 [2.7]) (P<0.001) (primary endpoint).
- Additionally on day 57, eye dryness VAS score was statistically significantly improved in the NOV03 arm compared to control group (-27.4 [27.9] vs. -19.7 [26.6]) (P<0.001) (primary endpoint).
- tCFS and eye dryness VAS score was also statistically significant at day 15 (secondary endpoint).
In the study, NOV03 was well tolerated with few subjects experiencing ocular adverse events (AE) (8.3% NOV03 group, 5.1% control group). Blurred vision, mostly mild and transient, was the only AE that occurred in a higher proportion of subjects treated with NOV03 versus control (3.0% vs 0.3%).
"With its novel mode of action, NOV03 is specifically designed to alleviate the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease associated with Meibomian gland dysfunction, and if approved, has the potential to address an unmet medical need," said Christian Roesky, Ph.D., CEO, Novaliq. "We look forward to our continued collaboration with Bausch Health and Bausch + Lomb as we work together to potentially bring this novel treatment option to patients in the United States."

FARMINGTON, Conn., April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Otis Worldwide Corporation (NYSE:OTIS) reported first quarter 2022 net sales of $3.4 billion with 3.1% organic growth. GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) increased 2.8% to $0.73 and adjusted EPS increased 6.9% to $0.77.
"Otis delivered a strong first quarter with broad based growth in New Equipment orders and maintenance portfolio units, nearly 6% Service organic sales growth, 30 basis points of Otis adjusted margin expansion and high-single digit adjusted EPS growth. In addition, year-to-date, we have made progress on our capital allocation strategy by successfully increasing our ownership in Zardoya Otis that will result in its automatic delisting in early May, repaying $500 million of debt and returning cash to shareholders through $200 million in share repurchases and a more than 20% increase in our dividend," said Judy Marks, Chair, CEO & President. "These achievements, and the progress we are making on our ESG initiatives, demonstrate the strength of our strategy, our ability to execute and the resilience of our business. Looking ahead, despite the intensifying macro challenges, including the impact from the crisis in Ukraine, we expect to achieve 3 to 4% organic sales growth and 10% adjusted EPS growth, at the midpoint."
Key Figures
First quarter net sales of $3.4 billion increased 0.2% versus the prior year, with a 3.1% increase in organic sales.
First quarter GAAP operating profit of $526 million increased $17 million and adjusted operating profit of $542 million increased $9 million and $29 million at constant currency from segment operating profit growth and lower corporate costs. GAAP operating profit also benefited from lower non-recurring separation costs. GAAP and adjusted operating profit margin expanded 50 and 30 basis points to 15.4% and 15.9%, respectively, driven by margin expansion in Service.
GAAP EPS increased 2.8% to $0.73 from operating profit growth and a reduction in share count partially offset by a higher tax rate from the absence of one-time items recorded in the prior year. Adjusted EPS increased 6.9% to $0.77, driven by operating profit growth, a reduction in share count and continued progress to reduce the adjusted effective tax rate.
New Equipment
In the first quarter, net sales of $1.4 billion decreased 2.5% with a 0.5% decrease in organic sales. Organic sales growth of mid single digits in EMEA and low single digits in Asia Pacific was more than offset by declines in the Americas and China.
GAAP operating profit of $93 million decreased $11 million and adjusted operating profit of $97 million decreased $12 million as installation productivity and lower bad debt expense was more than offset by $38 million of commodity headwinds and the impact from lower volume. GAAP and adjusted operating profit margin contracted 60 and 70 basis points to 6.5% and 6.8%, respectively.
New Equipment orders were up 8.8% at constant currency with growth in all regions. Americas New Equipment orders were up high single digits, EMEA was up mid-teens and Asia was up mid-single digits, including low single digit growth in China. New equipment backlog increased 4% with 6% growth at constant currency versus prior year.
Service
In the first quarter, net sales of $2.0 billion increased 2.2% with a 5.8% increase in organic sales. Organic maintenance and repair sales increased 5.6% and organic modernization sales increased 6.9%.
GAAP operating profit of $447 million and adjusted operating profit of $457 million each increased $17 million and $40 million at constant currency driven by higher volume, favorable pricing and productivity, partially offset by labor inflation. GAAP and adjusted operating profit margin each expanded 30 basis points to 22.4% and 22.9%, respectively.
Cash flow
First quarter cash from operations of $504 million decreased $81 million versus prior year as higher GAAP net income was more than offset by working capital improvements that were smaller than prior year. First quarter free cash flow of $474 million decreased $67 million versus prior year.
2022 Outlook1
Otis is revising its full year outlook to exclude Russia2,3:
- Adjusted net sales of ~$14.1 to 14.3 billion, up 0.5 to 1.5%
- Organic sales up 3 to 4%
- Adjusted operating profit of $2.2 to $2.25 billion, up $40 to $90 million at actual currency; up $105 to $155 million at constant currency
- Adjusted EPS of $3.22 to $3.27, up 9 to 11%; adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 27.7%
- Free cash flow of ~$1.6 billion with conversion of approximately 120% of GAAP net income
1Note: When we provide outlook for organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted effective tax rate and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures generally is not available without unreasonable effort. See "Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional information.
2For the purpose of year-over-year comparisons, 2021 has been adjusted to exclude Russia when discussing outlook. Beginning in Q2 2022 Otis will report adjusted results excluding Russia.
3Free cash flow and free cash flow conversion includes Russia results.

Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Otis Worldwide Corporation ("Otis") reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP information presented provides investors with additional useful information, but should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for the related GAAP measures. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures (referenced in this press release) to the corresponding amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP appears in the attached tables. These tables provide additional information as to the items and amounts that have been excluded from the adjusted measures.
Adjusted net sales, organic sales, adjusted selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted remaining performance obligation ("RPO"), constant currency and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures.
Adjusted net sales represents net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding significant items of a non-recurring and/or nonoperational nature ("other significant items").
Organic sales represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and other significant items. Management believes organic sales is a useful measure in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.
Adjusted SG&A expense represents SG&A expense (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted operating profit represents income from continuing operations (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted net interest expense represents net interest expense (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the impacts of non-recurring acquisition related financing costs and related net interest expense pending the completion of a transaction.
The adjusted effective tax rate represents the effective tax rate (a GAAP measure) adjusted for other significant items and the tax impact of restructuring costs and other significant items.
Adjusted net income represents net income attributable to Otis Worldwide Corporation (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs and other significant items, adjusted net interest expense and adjusted effective tax expense. Adjusted EPS represents diluted earnings per share from attributable to common shareholders (a GAAP measure), adjusted for the per share impact of restructuring and other significant items.
Adjusted RPO represents RPO (a GAAP measure) excluding other significant items.
Management believes that adjusted net sales, organic sales, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, the adjusted effective tax rate and adjusted RPO are useful measures in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.
Additionally, GAAP financial results include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates ("AFX"). We use the non-GAAP measure "at constant currency" or "CFX" to show changes in our financial results without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under U.S. GAAP, income statement results are translated in U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the period presented. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Company's ongoing operational performance.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents cash flow from operations (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity and an additional basis for assessing Otis' ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of common stock and distribution of earnings to shareholders.
When we provide our expectations for adjusted net sales, organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted EPS and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected diluted EPS from continuing operations, operating profit, the effective tax rate, net sales and expected cash flow from operations) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

Bengaluru, April 25: The initiative of the Embassy of France to make public spaces in Indian cities more accessible to women and transgender people by engaging the masses in public art projects will be inaugurated on Monday evening.
The week-long initiative has been taken up through an exhibition titled "The City for All?". The exhibition will be inaugurated at the Rangoli Metro Art Centre on M.G. Road in Bengaluru. Bonjour India's initiative 'The City for All?' is an artistic, cultural, educational, and social initiative by the French Embassy, its cultural service Institut Francais en Inde, the Alliances Francaises in India and the consulates of France.
At the inauguration, visitors will discover novel solutions that can make public spaces more accessible to women and transgender people. Also, at the inauguration, visitors will enjoy a live performance by the talented musician group Gopal Navale Music and go on a curated walk with artist and architect Swati Janu. Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee Appoints 2 Transgenders as Secretaries for First Time.
Five days before the exhibition, a pin-up map of the city had travelled across six Bengaluru neighbourhoods. The chosen neighbourhoods are diverse to allow people from different backgrounds to partake in an activity. People were asked where they like to go with family and friends. They had pink pins on these locations on the map.
Participants are asked questions like: Who are our cities designed for?, Who has the right to leisure in their cities? How can women and transgender people feel welcome, comfortable, and secure in public spaces? What barriers do transgender people encounter when they try to occupy public spaces? How can access to public spaces be increased for people of all ages, genders, sexual preferences, classes, and abilities? And what is needed, in their opinion, to compose an ideal public space?
On April 29 and 30, the maps used in this project will be exhibited along with dialogues and stories that emerged from each neighbourhood.
As a result, more discussions around public spaces and how to make them more accessible to this vulnerable lot, will take place. Also, at the exhibition, there will be a photo booth that would display popular local and French landmarks in the background where visitors can click lifelike selfies.
The Consul General of France, Thierry Berthelot stressed that "France is a beautiful example of restructuring and revamping cities keeping in mind the criteria that fall under sustainable, innovative urban infrastructure. I take this opportunity to underline that France has come forward to partner India in the smart cities project in different cities across the country." Transgender Toilet in Mumbai: First Public Toilet Designed for Transsex in Goregaon.
"In Bengaluru, with the support of the French Agency for Development, we are working on an urban mass transportation system like the metro as well as having worked on initial zoning, mapping and analysis that fall under urban planning. France worked on the city's urban planning, always with a keen eye on accessibility of public spaces to all," he said.
Architect and artist Swati Janu stated: "Cities across the world have largely been designed by fully grown, able bodied, cis-heterosexual men. Hence, women and transgender people must navigate urban worlds that were never created with their needs in mind. We need to look more closely at urban landscapes and figure out how they can be thoughtfully designed, considering the concerns, comfort, safety and representation of women, non-binary and transgender people."
"The City for All?" has so far travelled to Jaipur, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad and Pune and will be showcased in Delhi on May 7 and 8. At the end of the exhibit, it will travel to Lyon, France.

A home in Fairfax, Virginia, sold this month above the asking price even though it comes with an unusual feature ... a stranger living in the basement.
The five-bedroom, four-bathroom house sold for $805,000 to an unnamed buyer on April 15, public records show. Listing agent Zinta K. Rodgers-Rickert, of RE/MAX Gateway, said the home received five cash offers and closed less than a week after it was listed.
The listing generated headlines in noting that buying the home required “acknowledgement that home will convey with a person(s) living in lower level with no lease in place.”
“NO ACCESS to see lower level,” the listing added.
Two days after the home was listed, the Instagram account Zillow Gone Wild posted about it, noting that it came with “a specific clause in the purchase price.” The post garnered 35,000 likes and comments from users speculating about the identity of the basement tenant and poking fun at the unusual circumstances of the sale.
“800k for 5 bd, 4 ba and your own serial killer,” a user commented.
“Is the basement haunted? Feels like the basement is haunted,” another wrote.
Before the sale closed, Rodgers-Rickert told the New York Post that the seller was an elderly man who was ill in the hospital and who had offered the basement dweller a place to stay three years ago after she cleaned his home and “convinced him that she needed a place to stay.”
“So he offered her the basement, but then she never left. And she does not pay rent,” Rodgers-Rickert added.
The agent told the Post that the man’s family was hoping to sell the home before he died because he didn’t have a will and that they didn’t have the money to hire a lawyer to work on the eviction.
Rodgers-Rickert declined to comment to NBC News on the circumstances of the seller or the basement dweller.
A neighbor told WTTG-TV that a woman and her daughter live in the basement. The listing describes the lower level as a “walk out basement” with a “legal bedroom, full bath, storage and large living area.”
The 3,500-square-foot home was built in 1964 and sold for $319,000 in 1997, public records show.
The listing notes that the home needs work, estimating that required repairs and replacements would cost $25,000.
“Home is livable but needs some TLC,” it reads.
Photos show the kitchen counter strewn with empty bottles, deteriorating outdoor furniture on the deck and rotting window frames.
To claim squatter’s rights in Virginia, a person has to live in a place for 15 years and not hide the fact that they’re living there, according to WUSA-TV.
Rodgers-Rickert told NBC News she attributes the quick sale to “the strong market.”
“The limited inventory of homes in N. VA continues to fuel the market and makes all sales possible when priced right,” she wrote in a text. | https://www.today.com/home/home/home-sold-805k-comes-stranger-living-basement-rcna25804 | 2022-04-25T11:49:22Z | https://www.today.com/home/home/home-sold-805k-comes-stranger-living-basement-rcna25804 | true | 3 |
KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has hailed talks with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin as “encouraging” and “effective.”
Speaking in Monday’s video address, he said the U.S. is offering “powerful” support to his country. Zelenskyy added that they agreed “on further steps to strengthen the armed forces of Ukraine and meet all the priority needs of our army.” He noted that ramping up sanctions against Moscow also was on the meeting’s agenda.
Blinken and Austin said the United States had approved a $165 million sale of ammunition for Ukraine’s war effort, along with more than $300 million in foreign military financing.
Zelenskyy noted that Ukraine would expect the United States to lead other allies in offering a set of security guarantees in the future.
The Ukrainian president also denounced Russia for launching strikes on Orthodox Easter Sunday, describing them “deliberate destruction of life in Ukraine.”

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS:
MOSCOW — The Russian military says it will open a humanitarian corridor for civilians to evacuate from the besieged steel plant in Mariupol.
The Russian Defense Ministry said a humanitarian corridor will open at 2 p.m (1100 GMT) Monday for all civilians to leave the Azovstal plant in Mariupol. It said Russian troops will cease fire to allow civilians to safely exit the plant.
The mammoth steel plant, which has a sprawling maze of underground channels. has remained the last bulwark of Ukrainian resistance in the strategic Sea of Azov port city.
Ukrainian officials have said that up to 1,000 civilians have sheltered there. They have repeatedly urged Russia to offer them a safe exit.
___
MOSCOW — Russian authorities say a fire has engulfed an oil storage facility in western Russia.
The Emergencies Ministry said a huge blaze at the depot in the city of Bryansk erupted early Monday. Its cause wasn’t immediately clear.
The oil depot is owned by Transneft-Druzhba, a subsidiary of the Russian state-controlled company Transneft that operates the western-bound Druzhba (Friendship) pipeline carrying crude oil to Europe. It wasn’t clear if the depot was part of the pipeline infrastructure and whether the blaze could affect the deliveries.
Russian news reported that another oil storage facility in Bryansk also caught fire early Monday, and that the cause wasn’t immediately known.
Bryansk is located about 100 kilometers (60 miles) north of the border with Ukraine, where Moscow has waged a military campaign for two months. Last month, two Ukrainian helicopter gunships hit an oil reservoir in Russia’s Belgorod region that borders Ukraine, causing a fire.
___
KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian officials say the Russian military has unleashed a series of strikes on the country’s railways.
Lviv region Governor Maksym Kozytskyy said a Russian missile hit a railway facility in Krasne, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) east of Lviv, early Monday, sparking a fire.
Oleksandr Kamyshin, the head of the state-run Ukrainian Railways, said a total of five rail facilities in central and western Ukraine have been hit by the Russian strikes. He said the attacks have delayed at least passenger 16 trains.
There was no immediate information about the damage from the strikes.
___
NEAR THE POLISH-UKRAINIAN BORDER — U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken says Russia is failing in its war aims and Ukraine is succeeding.
Following meetings Sunday in Kyiv with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, along with U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Blinken told reporters in Poland on Monday that, with Russia having pulled back its troops from around Kyiv and the north of Ukraine to focus on the eastern Donbas region, “When it comes to Russia’s war aims, Russia is failing, Ukraine is succeeding.”
In footage of the meeting later released by the Ukrainian presidency, Blinken praised the “extraordinary courage and leadership and success that you’ve had in pushing back this horrific Russian aggression.”
“We got used to seeing you on video around the world, but it’s great, it’s good to see you in person,” Blinken said with a smile.
Blinken said U.S. diplomats returning to the country likely will first re-staff the consulate in Lviv in western Ukraine before returning to Kyiv.
Austin said that “the world has been inspired” by Ukraine in the war and that America would continue its support.
___
NEAR THE POLISH-UKRAINIAN BORDER — The United States is giving new military assistance to Ukraine and renewing a diplomatic push in the war-ravaged nation as President Joe Biden’s secretary of state and Pentagon chief complete a secretive trip to Kyiv.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin informed Ukraine’s president of a more than $300 million package of foreign military financing and a $165 million sale of ammunition.
They also said Biden would announce his pick for a U.S. ambassador to Ukraine and that American diplomats who left ahead of Russia’s invasion in February would start returning to the country this coming week.
Ukraine President Volodomyr Zelenskyy said he planned to meet with the U.S. officials in Kyiv on Sunday, but the Biden administration refused to confirm that or discuss any details of a possible visit.
It was the highest-level American visit to the capital since Russia invaded in late February.
Austin and Blinken announced a total of $713 million in foreign military financing for Ukraine and 15 allied and partner countries. Some $322 million is earmarked for Kyiv.
Officials say the remainder will be split among NATO members and other nations that have provided Ukraine with critical military supplies since the war with Russia began.
___
LVIV, Ukraine — A fire has erupted at a Russian oil depot near the border with Ukraine.
The Tass news agency reported the fire early Monday in Bryansk. The Russian report said oil storage tanks at the facility caught fire around 2 a.m. local time.
NASA satellites that track fires show a burning fire at coordinates that correspond to a Rosneft facility some 110 kilometers (70 miles) north of the Ukrainian border.
Anton Gerashchenko, adviser to the head of Ukraine’s Ministry of Internal Affairs, was cited by the Ukrainian news agency Unian as saying that people who live near the burning oil depot were being evacuated.
Moscow previously has blamed Ukraine for attacks on the Russian region of Bryansk, which borders Ukraine.
Ukraine’s top security officials have denied that Kyiv was behind an earlier airstrike on an oil depot in the Russian city of Belgorod, about 60 kilometers (35 miles) from the border.
___
MARIUPOL, Ukraine — A newly released video shows Ukrainian children in an underground bunker receiving Easter presents.
The video was released Sunday by the far-right Azov Battalion, which is among Ukrainian forces at the Azovstal steelworks where soldiers and civilians have been holed up under a Russian attack.
The group’s deputy commander, Sviatoslav Palamar, says the video was shot Sunday at the plant.
One toddler is seen wearing homemade diapers made of cellophane. People are hanging laundry on makeshift hangers.
One of the women in the video begs for help from world leaders and says she and others stuck under the plant are tired of the bombing and are desperate for their freedom.
“The children are constantly crying here — they want to play and live,” she adds. “Stop this aggression. I ask everyone, help please, free us!”
Another woman says there are 600 civilians sheltering under the plant, without food and water. | https://www.mystateline.com/news/international/live-updates-blinken-says-russia-is-failing/ | 2022-04-25T11:54:04Z | https://www.mystateline.com/news/international/live-updates-blinken-says-russia-is-failing/ | false | 16 |
UNICEF raises concerns over closure of schools for girls in Afghanistan
The United Nations International Children Emergency Fund (UNICEF) has once again raised concerns over the closure of secondary schools for girls emphasizing that education in Afghanistan should not be a hostage to politics.

- Afghanistan
The United Nations International Children Emergency Fund (UNICEF) has once again raised concerns over the closure of secondary schools for girls emphasizing that education in Afghanistan should not be a hostage to politics. The worldwide condemnation of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan has heightened, even more, after the Taliban decided to close all secondary schools for girls. Director of Global Support and Communications of UNICEF, Paloma Escudero, visited primary schools for girls in Kabul, as reported by Khama Press.
Escudero highlighted the issue that it has been over a month since girls have been denied education across Afghanistan by the Taliban. Girls over sixth grade are not allowed to go to school. She added that these Afghan girls require international support more than ever, urging the donor countries not to spare any support when it comes to backing schools girls in Afghanistan. Further, the director mentioned that one of the donor countries, the US will continue to assist Afghanistan and the girls who are deprived of education, According to Escudero, currently, education is the topmost priority of UNICEF in Afghanistan.
UNICEF has also planned on paying a two-month emergency cash support of about 200,000 to the teachers across Afghanistan. It has also provided over 35 million textbooks in the country so far, reported Khama Press. Earlier, UNICEF has expressed concerns over a series of attacks that led to the deaths of over 50 boys and girls, calling it a "grave rights violations" in Afghanistan. The Taliban's Ministry of Education has, however, assured that the schools for girls in grades 7-12 will be reopened in the near future. (ANI)

Former President Donald Trump is weighing how much to spend and how many Republican candidates to fund in this year's elections as he faces pressure to use his war chest to help Republicans gain control of Congress, two sources familiar with the matter said.
Trump's Save America leadership political action committee has become a fundraising juggernaut since its inception in November 2020, amassing some $112.5 million in cash but spending only around $17 million to help pay for rallies and promote Republicans, according to the latest federal filings.
Save America's spending has raised questions among campaign finance experts and political observers, who say it might signal that he is reserving cash for a presidential run in 2024.
Senior advisers are putting together proposals to support candidates running for state and congressional office in November's general election, the two sources familiar with discussions between Trump and his aides told Reuters on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity around the issue.
Trump is expected to make a decision by mid-May.
The expected timing of the midterm spending plan and some of the details under consideration have not been previously reported.
The proposals include spending estimates and providing candidates with support staff to help with communications and strategy, the sources said. Neither of the sources had details on the amount of money under consideration.
Advisers are debating whether to target a small number of races where money and staff can help tip the scales to victory or spread the funds over more races, the sources told Reuters.
One thing appears certain: Trump will make the final decisions and will surely spend money to defeat Republicans like Liz Cheney who voted to impeach him after the Jan. 6, 2020, assault on the U.S. Capitol, the sources said.
The sources acknowledged that Trump is under pressure to put more money and resources behind candidates he has endorsed amid reports of Republican frustration with the lack of action.
They noted that Trump has allowed candidates to host fundraisers at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida and that his endorsement boosts local fundraising and candidates' profiles.
Trump is expected to finalize a spending plan following key Republican nominating contests in early and mid-May for Senate candidates in Ohio and Pennsylvania, where he has made the risky move of backing candidates who are not clear favorites to win the nominations.
"I think they're under increasing pressure to spend the money. If Trump wants to get credit for taking the House and Senate back, he's going to have to put his resources to use. And if he doesn't, he will be blamed for us not taking more seats," said Dan Eberhart, a Republican donor.
Republicans are widely seen as the favorites to win control of the House of Representatives and possibly the Senate too amid deep dissatisfaction among Americans over Biden's handling of rising inflation.
Trump spokesperson Taylor Budowich said he does not comment on campaign spending and strategy.
Trump's Save America group has become one of the top Republican fundraising organizations ahead of the Nov. 8 elections, but so far it has been stingy with its spending compared to other groups, according to a Reuters analysis of financial disclosures made to the Federal Election Commission.
Trump has so far endorsed more than 100 candidates in congressional and state races. Some of the endorsements have been driven by Trump's desire to exact revenge on incumbent Republicans who crossed him.
One of the earliest tests of that strategy will be in Georgia, where Trump has backed former U.S. Senator David Perdue in the May 24 Republican gubernatorial primary. Perdue, who is lagging in the polls, will face Governor Brian Kemp, who infuriated Trump by certifying the 2020 election results that showed President Joe Biden defeated him in the state.
Save America disbursed $500,000 to a PAC supporting Perdue in March, its first major spending on a 2022 candidate, the most recent filings showed.

Miranda season 4 is not on the way, BBC and Miranda Hart confirm
Reports had claimed that the comedian was set to bring back the beloved sitcom.
Miranda Hart has dismissed reports that a fourth season of her self-titled BBC sitcom is on the way, telling fans on Twitter that there are no plans for a revival at this time.
The show came to an end with two specials, the last of which aired on New Year's Day 2015, bringing the story of joke shop owner Miranda to a heartwarming conclusion.
Fans of the series woke up this morning to claims that a brand new season was in the works, with reports citing Devon Life magazine's interview with Hart in its latest issue – but Hart herself has now played down the talk.
In a statement posted to Twitter, she told followers: "It's so lovely when some people get excited there might be more Miranda. Means a lot. But I'm afraid what was in papers today didn't come from me. Nothing planned at this time."
This statement aligns with the BBC's stance on the matter, with the broadcaster telling Deadline that it has not commissioned a fourth season of the comedy series.
In November 2021, Hart told the Gaby Roslin Podcast that she was "not ruling out" more episodes in the future, expressing her affection for the characters and interest in where they could be now.
"I do think of them from time to time, a bit like you would a friend that you haven’t seen for a while, ‘Oh, what would they be up to’," she said. "And so I’ve definitely had some thoughts of where they might be and what would happen with them all."

The original series starred Hart opposite Tom Ellis, who has since found fame in the United States as crime-solving devil Lucifer, with Sarah Hadland, Patricia Hodge and Sally Phillips in supporting roles.

A journalist from Bengaluru ended up creating a Guinness World Record after 236 fibroids were removed from her body. 34-year-old Ritika Sharma created the record of ‘most fibroids removed’ after her surgery at Sakra World Hospital. The fibroids weighed 2,250 gram in total, one of which was the size of a cauliflower. The fibroids made Ritika’s stomach as big as that of a pregnant woman and she also suffered from menstrual cramps. The four-and-half-hour surgery was done by Dr. Shanthala Thuppanna.
Talking about the record, the doctor said: “I am glad that we successfully managed to remove all the 236 fibroids during this complicated surgery since fibroids were located below the urinary bladder and ureter and were spread throughout the left side of her uterus and very near to important structures in the abdomen. I hope that this moment of celebration today will also serve as a cautionary tale to all women to stay aware of such underestimated comorbidities and consult experts at the earliest to safeguard themselves from unwarranted complications."
Ritika said that she is grateful to the doctors for successfully pulling off a complicated surgery. Fibroids or Uterine Fibroids are noncancerous growths that occur in the uterus. These growths are like benign tumors that often occur during childbearing years. The condition has various names such as fibroids, leiomyomas, myomas, uterine myomas, and fibromas. These fibroids may seem like cancerous cells but do not turn into uterine cancer. In very rare conditions, these tumors spread across the reproductive parts.
According to a study, around 80 percent of women in the world suffer from fibroids by the age of 50 years. However, most of them witness no prominent symptoms. In serious cases, women suffer from severe abdominal pain and heavy blood loss during menstruation. However, fibroids do not have any visible symptoms that are only associated with them.

Pep Guardiola could give an update on Kyle Walker and John Stones ahead of Manchester City's Champions League semi-final first-leg clash with Real Madrid.
Walker has missed the last three games since City's quarter-final second-leg at Atletico Madrid, and may not be ready to face Real on Tuesday. Stones limped off against Brighton last week and didn't face Watford, with Guardiola saying the pair would be assessed ahead of tomorrow's big game. He also confirmed that Nathan Ake and Kevin De Bruyne were playing through pain recently.
Guardiola will hope for at least one of Walker and Stones to be ready as Joao Cancelo is suspended for the first leg after accumulating too many yellow cards. If neither player is fit, Guardiola has no obvious right-back option to face Real.
The manager is likely to be asked about his defensive options, his tactical approach, thoughts on Carlo Ancelotti, and also on Real's in-form striker Karim Benzema.
Follow below for every word from Guardiola and a City player right here.
Rodri tells Man City to suffer vs Real Madrid
Rodri says Manchester City must be prepared to suffer when they face Real Madrid in the Champions League this week - just as they did vs Atletico Madrid in the previous round.
City edged past Atletico 1-0 in the last round in a physical quarter-final that saw the Blues show great patience to break down an extremely stubborn defence. Real will offer a different threat tactically, but Rodri says City must give the same amount of commitment as they did against Atletico to have a chance of reaching the final.
"These things happen in the competition," he said. "Teams play, they are good teams, and we have to suffer sometimes. You cannot expect to be 90 minutes attacking, you have to defend also and be aware we have to defend and suffer sometimes."
Real squad confirmed
Real Madrid have taken David Alaba and Casimero to Manchester, even with both being injury doubts. We'll have a further update on both when Carlo Ancelotti faces the media this evening and Real train at the Etihad.
Who plays at right-back?
Joao Cancelo is suspended, and there's a chance that Kyle Walker and John Stones won't be ready for tomorrow, leaving City without any obvious right-back against Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo.
Could Aleks Zinchenko be moved over to the right with Nathan Ake at left-back? Could Fernandinho drop back? Might Gabriel Jesus be used at right-back as Guardiola hinted on Saturday? Or could CJ Egan-Riley be given a Champions League semi-final start?
Have your say in our poll on Twitter below:
Early Man City team news
Guardiola could offer an update on his squad after issuing a cautious update after the Watford game:
- Joao Cancelo is suspended for the first leg.
- Kyle Walker and John Stones will be assessed today and tomorrow.
- Nathan Ake and Kevin De Bruyne are still playing through some pain.
- Ilkay Gundogan, Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden and Riyad Mahrez were benched on Saturday and could return.
Good morning!
Hello, and welcome to our coverage of Pep Guardiola's press conference ahead of the Real Madrid first leg.

Manchester City's 5-1 thrashing of Watford temporarily moved them four points clear at the top of the Premier League table on Saturday, although by Sunday evening the lead had been cut back down to one.
Liverpool's 2-0 win against Everton in the Merseyside derby cranked up the pressure another notch or two, although ultimately City know that if they win their remaining five games then they will be champions. However, you wouldn't have known that going off a tweet published from the official Premier League account on Sunday night...
A series of photos of Liverpool players celebrating during the derby day win were posted alongside the one-finger emoji and the words 'step closer'. Given that the title is in City's hands, it seems a little odd for the impartial Premier League to suggest that Jurgen Klopp's side are a step closer to anything.

City fans, it's fair to say, are not too impressed.
@mcfcsince1894: Well if I had any doubt as to where the EPL's loyalties lie, no attempt to hide which colours are nailed on to your mast hmmm... for the record City are still top by 1 point and IF we win all our remaining games....
@kdbking12: Step closer to what exactly ?? The Liverpool bias is crazy in the media
@Pepology: This is very strange
But not everyone is overly bothered by the tweet...
@BenWills: Not like Man City fans to have an over the top reaction to something that doesn’t matter
The whole thing has arguably been blown out of proportion a bit. It was an ill-advised tweet, but hardly a clear sign of bias or anything more sinister. | https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-city-liverpool-premier-league-23775518 | 2022-04-25T12:10:49Z | https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-city-liverpool-premier-league-23775518 | true | 1 |

11/03/06 – Army specialist Alyssa Peterson was an Arabic speaking interrogator assigned to the Tal-afar airbase in far northwestern Iraq near the Syrian border. According to the Army's investigation into her death, obtained by KNAU through the Freedom of Information Act, Peterson objected to the interrogation techniques used on prisoners. She asked to be transferred to other duties after completing only two interrogations in an area known as the cage. Army spokespersons for her unit have refused to describe the interrogation techniques Alyssa objected to. Army spokesperson Valerie Flores says all records of those techniques have now been destroyed.
Instead she was assigned a base gate , where she monitored Iraqi guards. She was sent to routine suicide prevention training. But on the night of September 15th, 2003, Army investigators concluded she shot and killed herself with her service rifle.
Alyssa Peterson graduated from Flagstaff High School earned a psychology degree from Northern Arizona University on a military scholarship. She was trained in interrogation techniques at Fort Huachuca in southern Arizona, before being deployed to the Middle East in 2003.

Russia, according to a recent caustic headline in Bloomberg, is facing “reverse industrialization” due to the US-led sanctions regime that has been imposed upon Russia for its illegal invasion of its neighbor, Ukraine.
Certainly, the American sanctions have done much harm in the near term to Russia’s economy (and, therefore, its political stability at home and its long-term ability to conduct wide-ranging military operations).
In the long term, however, the sanctions have merely hardened Russian resistance to the West and intransigence on the Ukraine issue. More important, the regime of President Vladimir Putin appears unwilling to abandon its present course of action in Ukraine, no matter how tightly Washington and Brussels squeeze Moscow economically.
In fact, Western sanctions have forced Moscow to begin employing new, dynamic strategies for surviving the economic assault Russia is being subjected to.
For example, as the West has enacted its partial, self-imposed moratorium on the importation of cheap, important Russian natural gas as punishment for the invasion of Ukraine, Moscow has merely shifted its energy flows away from Europe to thirsty markets in the Far East (notably those in India and China).
Plus, Beijing has become more amenable to serving as a financial backstop for Moscow the harder the West pushes Russia economically.
While neither China’s nor India’s economic assistance may be enough to offset the losses from the Western sanctions in the near term, in the medium to long term, Western sanctions may be empowering Russia to create the pathways for actual financial and economic independence from the West in ways that the Kremlin would ordinarily not entertain.
On top of Moscow turning more toward China to assist Russia in its hour of financial and economic need, both Germany and France – the strongest economy in Europe and the most powerful indigenous military on the continent, respectively – have created ingenious ways to circumvent the Western sanctions that both nations claim they support.
In fact, while Germany, which is disproportionately reliant on Russian natural gas, may have canceled its recently completed Nord Stream 2 pipeline, it has yet to cancel its long-standing Nord Stream 1 pipeline.
For that to occur, E.ON, the German company that manages Nord Stream 1, would have to cancel its pipeline with Russia. And the chief executive of E.ON has publicly stated that his company will never cut off its flow of Russian natural gas.
As this happens, Moscow has turned to demanding that all payments for Russian natural gas and oil be made in the ruble, as a way of propping up and enhancing Russia’s flagging currency (thanks to the Western sanctions).
Meanwhile, a delegation from Russia attended the Bengal Global Business Summit (BGBS) in the final weeks of April. Despite the Western sanctions and the hectoring from Western governments, the organizers of BGBS 2022 insisted that Russia be included. This, as Russian warships operated alongside Chinese warships in the Pacific during a recent US Navy exercise there.
So, what we are witnessing is not the total defeat of Russia (though Ukraine has, with help from the Western alliance, held its own against the Russian invader). Instead, what one is witnessing today is the death of Western Russia and the birth of an Asian Russia.
Old habits die hard
Such an outcome, while it will create difficult burdens for Russia in the near term, is not necessarily damaging to Russia’s leaders in the long term – especially the siloviki who purport to rule Russia.
After all, the siloviki are former Soviet KGB and Red Army types who witnessed the collapse of the Soviet Union and believed it to be the “greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century.” This faction of hardliners then spent the 1990s watching in horror as Boris Yeltsin and his cadre attempted to liberalize Russia and make it part of the West.
But for the siloviki, old habits die hard; the West was always the enemy.
The economic instability that dominated Russia in the 1990s, as well as the various challenges to Russia’s diminished geopolitical standing in the international system (in places like the Balkans, the former Eastern European Soviet-bloc states that had been accepted into NATO over Russian objections, or in Chechnya) were seen by this group as further proof that Russia had been given a raw deal at the end of the Cold War.
Russian political theorist Aleksandr Dugin of Moscow State University then began publishing his works elaborating on his theory of “Neo-Eurasianism.” According to Dugin, Russia was not a part of the West at all. It was something else entirely. While it had some similarities, such as Eastern Orthodox Christianity, the Mongol invasions that had occurred a thousand years earlier fundamentally changed Russia; it became an entity that was only partly a component of the West but also part of Asia.
Yet since Peter the Great was czar, Russian leaders have obsessed over their Western periphery. The unjust Russian invasion of Ukraine, however, is forcing changes in the make-up of Russian policy. Having been closed off to the West, rather than admit it erred in their invasion of Ukraine, Putin’s regime is pivoting to the East.
This is something that both the Neo-Eurasianists and the siloviki have long favored. The Russian elite today have no choice any longer. They must pivot away from the West or be destroyed by the Western sanctions and increased hostilities.
Thus Russia is becoming an Asian nation – fulfilling the long-delayed dreams of Czar Alexander III, who had built the Trans-Siberian Railroad linking Russia’s more developed “European” side with Russia’s “Wild East” along the underdeveloped Pacific coastline.
Rather than surrender to the overwhelming economic and political pressure that the West is subjecting the Russians to; instead of overthrowing the would-be czar, Vladimir Putin, the Russians are becoming more pro-Putin. They are entering the classic Russian pattern of resisting the dreaded outsider at all costs – even if it means enhancing the power of the dreaded dictator at home.
No going back
For those Western elites under the false assumption that there is an end in sight to the current standoff with Russia (one that ends with the end of Putin’s reign and either the democratization of Russia or the breaking down of the unitary Russian state), be prepared to be proved wrong.
What’s needed, therefore, is a recognition that there is no going back to the way things were between the West and Russia before 2022. Moscow has reached the point of no return. So, too, has the Western alliance.
For all the great hope that there was in 2017-18 of flipping Russia to use against China, those brief days of hope are over. Washington’s leaders, Democratic and Republican alike, must accept the new painful reality of a Eurasia that houses an increasingly aligned Russia and Chinese anti-American axis of autocrats.
Strategies must now be developed accordingly – and those strategies must recognize that real and severe limitations will be placed upon American power projection into Eurasia henceforth.
As the great Russian poet Alexander Blok once mused in “Are We Scythians? – Are We Asiatics?”:
Oh yes – we are Scythians! Yes – we are Asiatics,
With slanting, rapacious eyes… Like obedient slaves,
We held up a shield between two enemy races –
The Mongols and Europe!
Rejoicing, grieving, and drenched in blood,
Russia is a sphinx that gazes at you
With hatred and with love.
We can recall the streets of Paris
And shady Venice,
The aroma of lemon groves
And the hazy monuments of Cologne.
… But now through the woods and thickets
We’ll stand aside
Before the comeliness of Europe –
And turn on you with our Asiatic faces.
American leaders will now have to come to grips with the sad fact that Russia is becoming an Asian nation … and that will likely end America’s world-spanning hegemony in our lifetimes, as it deprives America of easy access to Eurasia. | https://asiatimes.com/2022/04/russia-becomes-an-asian-nation/ | 2022-04-25T12:17:24Z | https://asiatimes.com/2022/04/russia-becomes-an-asian-nation/ | false | 1 |
The Government plans to establish an independent regulator following a fan-led review into football.
The review, led by Tracey Crouch MP, made 10 key recommendations that the Government should act upon when it was published back in November. Having a say on ownership was one of the hottest topics due to numerous recent events.
Just over a year ago six Premier League teams attempted to join a breakaway European Super League, along with some of the biggest clubs from La Liga and Serie A. Wolverhampton Wanderers condemned those clubs at the time and owners Fosun insisted they would never support such a move.

READ: Adama Traore decision is costing Wolves but Man Utd & West Ham 'mentality' is helping
The catastrophe of Bury, who were expelled from the EFL in 2019, and Derby County’s financial chaos has raised questions over football ownership. The introduction of an independent regulator in football will mean prospective owners have to pass a more rigorous test before they can purchase football clubs on these shores. The regulator will also have the power to sanction clubs that break the rules.
Confirming the implementation of a regulator, Crouch told PA: “I am exceptionally pleased [the government] has accepted or supported all the strategic recommendations of the review, including committing to legislation for a statutory independent regulator which will regulate financial resilience as well as ownership of clubs.
"This is an enormous step forward in providing much-needed reform for football. Further delays could be catastrophic for clubs, communities and fans seeking a more secure and certain regulatory environment.”
The regulator should give supporters of Wolves, and all other clubs in the Premier League and EFL, a say in the decisions their owners make. It remains to be seen when it will come into force, but Crouch's statement is confirmation that change is coming in English football. | https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/government-independent-regulator-wolves-fosun-23775912 | 2022-04-25T12:17:38Z | https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/government-independent-regulator-wolves-fosun-23775912 | false | 1 |

LOCAL restaurant Eat and Cook in Kuala Lumpur recently won the prestigious American Express One to Watch Award for 2022. The restaurant was chosen by the organisers of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants in partnership with its regional experts, as part of an award that aims to celebrate gastronomic excellence, innovation and potential. TheSun spoke to Lee Zhe Xi, one half of the team behind the restaurant, about his journey in Eat and Cook, and how its quick expansion has seen it named the continent’s most promising restaurant.
Lee shared that he had always wanted to be a chef since he was 10 years old. He would help his grandmother in the kitchen prepping and cooking together. His grandmother and his parents, taught him to value food as more than something that fills the stomach, but as a gesture of love. After graduating from Berjaya University as a certified and professional chef, he seized the opportunity to work with masters of the fine dining scene, and I’ve been cooking ever since.
When asked when and how did the idea of Eat and Cook first came about, Lee had a lot to say.
“Every chef has the dream to open a restaurant and the same goes for me. I’ve always wanted to have a restaurant that represent my roots as a Malaysian.
“My partner Soh Yong Zhi and I lost our jobs at the beginning of the pandemic. We did not want to wait around so we decided that we would open a restaurant together as quickly as possible.
“The name of our restaurant sums up what we’re about. When you want to EAT, then we are here to COOK for you. So, we are Eat and Cook. We want our guests to leave their expectations at the door and let themselves be surprised.
“We believe food presents us with a special opportunity to bond, interact and create memories in a significant way. We want to take you on a deliciously enjoyable journey to places you haven’t been, creating a shared experience with loved ones.
“We use our best local produce to create our foods and present our guests with a menu consisting of our Malaysian cultures, flavours and memories. This is why we called ourselves an omakase for the local tongue.”
Lee’s biggest inspiration to open Eat and Cook came from the uniqueness of Malaysian culture and ingredients. He wanted to elevate the Malaysian dining scene and and bring Malaysian flavours and dishes to the next level.
He and his partner were also inspired by Japanese and Taiwanese culture. He mentioned that he loved the way chefs cook in front of guests so they get the chance to see how dishes are prepared in the kitchen. That is also the main reason why they chose an omakase concept, allowing guests the chance to see how dishes are prepared in the kitchen.
Lee explained further explained some of the biggest challenges they had to overcome at the beginning of their journey.
“Sourcing the ingredients was the most challenging aspect. We work so hard to get the ingredients from all around Malaysia so we can turn a spotlight on fresh seasonal ingredients.
“We developed relationships with market traders and fishermen so that we could be sure we were getting the best-available Malaysian produce. Now I go to the market every night after service so I know I can buy the best products for the restaurant.
“We also had limited funds, so we had to be creative in finding a venue. Our first site was outside the city in a mall, where there were no other restaurants. The space was just 300 square foot. As the rent was not very much – just RM450 per week – we were able to test our ideas to see if they would work.”
When asked what he thought wa the greatest misconception about Malaysian cuisine, Lee responded: “Malaysian cuisine is not only about curries and spices. Malaysian cuisine reflects Malaysia’s multiculturalism. It is a cuisine for Malaysians and is built upon the flavours we grew up with.
“For me, Malaysian cuisine shows the diverse nature of the country and the many races who identify as Malaysian. We also have access to some of the best produce in the world – the slipper lobsters from Sabah are absolutely delicious.”
Success didn’t come easy. Lee shared that their first site was in a mall outside the city, where there were no other restaurants. People said they were crazy for trying to build a restaurant in an area which has no history of restaurants, but they were confident that they could make it work. “We only had room for six seats after all. Fortunately, we became popular very quickly. We were able to move to a permanent, bigger, more central site in 2021 where we can now host 30 guests.”
Acknowledging the award, Lee said: “I was stunned when I was told that we are the 2022 recipient. It brought me to reflect on all the hard work we’ve put into the restaurant this past year. I was just surprised and overjoyed to hear the news. I actually missed the email from 50 Best over the Lunar New Year period; I was just glad I was not too late by the time I responded.”
Chef Lee explains his future plan to elevate the dining experience in Malaysia and bring Malaysian flavours and dishes to the next level and to inspire the next generation of young passionate chefs with their own crazy ideas and help to create more crazy restaurants like Eat and Cook.
When asked what is his advice to anyone considering to open a restaurant, he said, “be ready to make sacrifices, work hard and enjoy the journey.”
He also mentioned that the biggest key to success is to be brave enough to take on new challenges. | https://www.thesundaily.my/style-life/taste-of-excellence-XY9122462 | 2022-04-25T12:23:33Z | https://www.thesundaily.my/style-life/taste-of-excellence-XY9122462 | false | 1 |
Oil prices sink more than 5% on China demand fears
Europe's benchmark contract Brent North Sea crude fell as low as $101.20 per barrel and US WTI oil dropped to $96.85.
LONDON - World oil prices sank more than five percent Monday on fears that China's worsening COVID-19 outbreak could slam demand from the major energy consumer.
Europe's benchmark contract Brent North Sea crude fell as low as $101.20 per barrel and US WTI oil dropped to $96.85.
China is struggling to get a grip on a renewed COVID-19 outbreak that has forced Shanghai - the country's biggest city - into lockdown and dealt a blow to energy demand.
Global markets have also been stung by the prospect of a sharp increase in US interest rates.
"Market moods have deteriorated as the Covid situation in China is not improving and the media is hinting that Beijing could be next in line for a lockdown after Shanghai and several other major cities," said XTB analyst Walid Koudmani.
"As China is the second-largest economy in the world, the situation... has a big impact on commodity markets with oil and industrial metals dropping significantly." | https://ewn.co.za/2022/04/25/oil-prices-sink-more-than-5-on-china-demand-fears | 2022-04-25T12:35:31Z | https://ewn.co.za/2022/04/25/oil-prices-sink-more-than-5-on-china-demand-fears | false | 1 |
AVONDALE, La. (AP) — Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele held off Sam Burns and Billy Horschel by two strokes Sunday in the Zurich Classic of New Orleans to complete a record-setting, wire-to-wire victory.
Cantlay and Schauffele closed with an even-par-72 in late afternoon showers in the alternate-shot final round to finish at 29-under 259 at breezy TPC Louisiana, two shots ahead of Burns and Horschel.
The Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup partners broke the tournament record of 27 under set by Kevin Kisner-Scott Brown and Jonas Blixt-Cameron Smith in 2017, the first year the event was as a team event. Cantlay and Schauffele are the first wire-to-wire winners since the tournament adopted the team format.
“It was a great week,” Cantlay said. “Second time we’ve played this event and we were looking forward to it since last year. We really always enjoy being with each other, both on and off the golf course, and we both played exceptional this week and had a great time doing it.”
Cantlay and Schauffele opened with a record 59 in best-ball play Thursday, shot 68 on Friday in alternate shot and had a 60 in best ball Saturday to shatter the tournament 54-hole record and open a five-shot lead.
Burns, the local favorite who played at LSU, and Horschel closed with a 68. Doc Redman and Sam Ryder were third at 24 under after a 67.
“Sort of sucks like that once in a while when you feel good and you’re trying to chase down some leaders but sometimes you just can’t make it happen, and that’s what it was for us on the last six holes,” Horschel said.
Cantlay, the defending FedExCup champion and PGA Tour Player of the Year, won his seventh tour title and first since the Tour Championship in September. He won a week after losing a playoff to Jordan Spieth in the RBC Heritage.
Schauffele won for the fifth time. He last won at the 2019 Sentry Tournament of Champions.
Cantlay and Schauffele eagled the par-5 seventh, with Cantlay hitting a 254-yard second shot to set up Schauffele a 7-foot putt.
“(Cantlay) hit an unbelievable shot into seven,” Schauffele said. “It was a pretty thing to see from my angle in the fairway. It jump-started the round.”
After missing a 3-foot birdie putt on the short par-4 eighth, Schauffele missed the greens on the ninth and 10th holes, leading to consecutive bogeys and the five-shot lead was down to one over the charging Burns and Horschel.
“I feel like those bogeys were pretty much my fault, put (Cantlay) in bad spots with an 8-iron and wedge in hand,” Schauffele said. “We weren’t really too worried about where everyone else was at, just trying to focus on what we do best.”
Cantlay and Schauffele rebounded with a 3-foot birdie putt on the 11th and followed with six consecutive birdies before bogeying the par-5 closing hole.
Burns and Horschel pulled within one after birdieing Nos. 8, 10 and 11. But Burns’ tee shot on the short par-4 16th found the water and a bogey on the par-3 17th left them three behind.
Masters champion Scottie Scheffler and Ryan Palmer shot a 71 to tie for 18th at 18 under.
The father-son team of Jay and Bill Haas tied for 36th after a 72. At 68 years, 4 months, 20 days, Jay Haas, making his 799th official start, is the oldest player to make a PGA Tour cut. | https://www.ourquadcities.com/sports/patrick-cantlay-xander-schauffele-hold-on-in-new-orleans/ | 2022-04-25T12:39:04Z | https://www.ourquadcities.com/sports/patrick-cantlay-xander-schauffele-hold-on-in-new-orleans/ | false | 31 |
U.S. Midwest carbon pipeline's backers have close ties to Iowa government
Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
April 25 (Reuters) - Summit Carbon Solutions, the company behind a huge carbon pipeline proposal in the U.S. Midwest, has close ties to Iowa officials and regulators charged with approving a large part of its route, according to a Reuters review of public documents and company websites.
At least four members of Summit's leadership have direct links to the Iowa governor's office or the Iowa Utility Board (IUB), both of which could influence the future of the roughly 2,000-mile (3,200-km) pipeline, according to the review. One is the top individual donor to the current governor, Kim Reynolds. Another is a former Iowa governor, Terry Branstad, who nominated two of the IUB's three commissioners, including its chair.
The links between Summit's leadership and public officials in Iowa, which would host the largest share of Summit's proposed Midwest Carbon Express project, have raised worries among ethics watchdogs and environmental groups over whether project opponents will get a fair hearing.

"I would say there is a valid concern on the part of the (pipeline opponents) that they're not getting equal treatment by the government," said Robert Maguire, research director at the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, who examined the Reuters reporting.
Ames, Iowa-based Summit said it was following legal and ethics guidelines and that it is typical for former officials and regulators to take private-sector roles in which their expertise is relevant.
"It's not surprising that the company has attracted a strong bipartisan team with a diverse set of experiences in agriculture, engineering and public policy," Summit spokesperson Jesse Harris said.
Summit's project is meant to capture millions of tons of carbon dioxide from 32 Midwest ethanol plants and pipe it to an underground storage site in North Dakota. Iowa, the top ethanol state, would host about 680 miles (1,100 km) of the pipeline.
The project would help the biofuels industry secure a place in a climate-friendly future by reducing its carbon footprint, while also taking advantage of federal and state subsidies for carbon capture and low carbon fuels.
Landowners have expressed concern that the pipeline could reduce farm yields, lower property values or pose a public safety threat if it leaks. read more
The Reuters review found that Bruce Rastetter, the head of Summit's parent company Summit Agricultural Group, is the top individual donor to Reynolds, Iowa's Republican governor. Rastetter gave nearly $150,000 to Reynolds between 2018 and 2022, according to records maintained by the National Institute on Money in Politics.
Opponents are concerned that Reynolds would veto any bills critical of the pipeline like one recently passed in the state House that would delay the project's permitting process.
Summit's senior policy advisor is Branstad, Iowa's Republican former governor and a former U.S. ambassador to China during President Donald Trump's administration. During Branstad's 22-year tenure as governor, he appointed two of the three IUB commissioners, including its chair. The IUB will decide whether to permit the project.
Summit's lobbyists in Iowa include Jake Ketzner, who is Reynolds' former chief of staff, and Jeffrey Boeyink, who served as Branstad's chief of staff.
IUB spokesperson Don Torney said the board members are held to ethics standards and would decide for themselves whether there was a conflict of interest in their participation in the pipeline proceedings "at the appropriate time."
Alex Murphy, spokesperson for Reynolds, said the governor conducts "a full, fair, and impartial review of every bill that makes it to her desk."
Rastetter's Summit Agricultural Group did not respond to a request for comment.
Jess Mazour, an organizer with the Sierra Club environmental group, said the relationships between Summit and Iowa officials made her worry that public opposition to the project could be ignored.
Some 98.9% of comments in the Summit pipeline docket at the IUB were opposed to the pipeline in March. read more
"If they are listening to the people, it's very clear that this shouldn't be approved," Mazour said.
Another pipeline company, Navigator CO2 Ventures, is also proposing a carbon pipeline through the region. The main attorney representing Navigator, Samantha Norris, was once general counsel of the IUB, according to the IUB docket.
Norris directed Reuters to Navigator for comment. The company called concerns about the relationship "baseless."
Reynolds has not taken a public position on the pipelines, but in 2021 named representatives from both Navigator and Summit to a state carbon sequestration task force or related working group.

Bioretec's ActivaPin™ bioresorbable implant provided excellent clinical outcome in the treatment of pediatric wrist fractures
HELSINKI, April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The published clinical study confirms the significant benefits of Bioretec's bioresorbable ActivaPin™ implants for pediatric patients in the treatment of severely displaced distal radius and forearm fractures. The results of the retrospective multicenter study indicate that patients treated with bioresorbable ActivaPin™ had significantly lower level of complications than those treated with traditional non-biodegradable metallic Kirschner-wires (K-wires) and no second surgical intervention was required.
Distal radius fractures are very common in pediatric patients, and severely displaced fractures may require surgical intervention. The current best practice surgical method is percutaneous K-wire osteosynthesis followed by immobilization. However, the non-biodegradable metal implants often require removal surgery that can cause further complications. The ActivaPin™ implant is made of bioresorbable polymer (PLGA), which safely disappears in the body in approximately two years.
In the study, a total of 94 patients were reviewed in three pediatric trauma centers. The patients underwent operations due to severely displaced distal forearm radial fractures and were treated with either K-wire or with bioresorbable ActivaPin™. The study groups were examined for the number of minor and major complications as well as the need for repeated interventions. The complication rate of the ActivaPin™ group was significantly lower than of K-wire group, and there were no major complications associated with ActivaPin™. In addition, no signs of growth disturbance were found in any of the children after long term 18 months follow-up of the injury.
"The results of the study are very encouraging. The novel surgical technique leads to less complications and also offers major advantages to surgeons. The benefits of ActivaPin™ were most pronounced in the first six weeks after surgery: the number of outpatient visits were reduced, and children's sense of comfort was increased. In addition, avoiding second surgical intervention results in significant cost savings. And most importantly, children can return to their normal everyday life and activities faster," says Timo Lehtonen, CEO of Bioretec, a globally operating Finnish medical device company and a pioneer in bioresorbable orthopedic implants.
The ActivaPin™ has been in the market since 2008, and the product is currently used in over 30 countries.
The results of the study (Varga et al. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders (2022) 23:362) were published in BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, a well-known peer reviewed scientific journal. The results can be read in full at https://bit.ly/3rJj5tX.

Telecoms giant T-Mobile has confirmed its digital premises were breached by the notorious Lapsus$ hackers, but played down the severity of the incident.
As reported by BleepingComputer, the group of hackers was apparently unable to obtain any valuable data from the incursion.
"Several weeks ago, our monitoring tools detected a bad actor using stolen credentials to access internal systems that house operational tools software," a T-Mobile spokesperson told the publication.
Stealing source code
T-Mobile went in to further details as to precisely what the attackers were able to access, and how the company responded.
"The systems accessed contained no customer or government information or other similarly sensitive information, and we have no evidence that the intruder was able to obtain anything of value," said the firm.
"Our systems and processes worked as designed, the intrusion was rapidly shut down and closed off, and the compromised credentials used were rendered obsolete."
However, other sources offer conflicting reports as to the nature of the stolen data.
According to a report from security expert Brian Krebs, based on leaked chat logs allegedly showing a conversation between Lapsus$ members, the group managed to steal proprietary T-Mobile source code. A total of 30,000 source code repositories were taken from T-Mobile's endpoints, the report claims.
The group is also said to have obtained access to Atlas, a powerful internal T-Mobile tool for managing customer accounts, as well as access to company Slack and Bitbucket accounts.
The motive behind the desire to steal source code is unclear, the report further states, but Krebs suspects that it could be about extortion, or turning a profit on the black market.
In the past four years, T-Mobile has disclosed a total of seven breaches, including one in which threat actors accessed data belonging to 3% of all of its customers.
Recently, the company’s customers notified the FBI of “unblockable” SMS phishing attacks, which are linked to one of the earlier breaches.

Beggars' Swarms Exasperate Eid Shoppers In Ramazan
Muhammad Irfan Published April 25, 2022 | 05:00 PM
PESHAWAR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 25th Apr, 2022 ) :As less than a week is left in Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations, the professional and unprofessional beggars have thronged the city's markets and shopping arcades to secure maximum alms and charities by adopting irritating techniques, which are annoying Eid shoppers.
Despite begging has been declared illegal under the country's laws, the beggars' influx including male, female, children and persons with disabilities are being witnessed in the jam-packed crossing points, mosques' gates and mostly frequented public places and food outlets in the city and cantonment areas mostly before Iftar.
These days, Hashtnagri, Gantagar, Firdus, Nothia, Tehkal, Gulbahar, Faqirabad, Meena Bazaar, Karimpura, Shafi Market, Saddar Road, University Town, City Tower, Jawad Tower and Deans Trade Centre are flooded with beggars.
They have occupied key points in front of shopping malls, mosques, road signals, bus terminals, railway stations, traffic squares and streets.
Most professional beggars employ various tricks to exploit human nature and religious sentiments by crying, weeping and chasing people in public places while wearing miserable attire.
The unchecked trained beggars are pestering Eid shoppers in markets or running after them or behind their cars to collect maximum alms in name of Zakat, Fitrana, Sadqa and Khairat.
Some beggars roaming with exposed wounds keep on holding and touching customers when they come out of their vehicles, which could expose them to contiguous diseases and viral infections.
It has been witnessed that some beggars were emotionally blackmailing people by carrying medical prescriptions and disability certificates.
'Alms' seekers can also be seen in city markets asking for charity in the name of construction of mosques while many beggars were resorting to lame-duck excuses like seeking treatment of their ailing family or lost jobs during COVID-19.
"Begging has emerged as a major social evil in recent years to the nuisance of Peshawarties," Riazul Haq, a retired school teacher, who was irritated by beggars during Eid shopping at Qissa Khwani bazaar, told APP.
Besides bazaars and shopping arcades, he said Eid shoppers were facing great inconvenience at traffic signals, food restaurants, bus terminals, railways stations, mosques, hospitals, markets and public places due to swarms of beggars in Peshawar.
"It is heartbreaking to see young girls and boys' beggars carrying wipers in hands often start cleaning cars windows on traffic signals without permission in order to get money.
" Riaz said some beggars come with water bottles, flowers, garlands, caps and rosary to give an impression that they are selling it, but actually they beg for money without an intention of selling anything.
Qaiser Khan, a retired Wapda employee and resident of Nowshera said he was busy in Eid shopping along with his family at Shafi Market where a teenage beggar with black colour in hand rushed towards me, asking for money or otherwise his clothes would be made dirty.
"In order to save my clothes, I immediately offered him Rs 80, which was refused. On several requests, the beggar accepted Rs 100 and started running towards other shoppers by using the same technique that was intolerable in a civilized society" he recalled.
He demanded the KP government to take instantaneous action against swarms of beggars in the city so that people could take a sigh of relief and do Eid shopping with ease.
Former Additional Advocate General KP, Esa Khan told APP that beggary has been declared illegal under West Pakistan Loitering Ordinance 1958. Unfortunately, he said this law had not been fully implemented, which resulted in an increase of beggars especially during Ramazan.
He said central and provincial laws such as Control of Narcotics Substance Act 1997, West Pakistan Vagrancy Ordinance 1959, Pakistan Employment of Children Act 1991, KP Child Protection and Welfare Act (KPCPWA) 2010 and KP Orphanage Supervision and Control Act 1976 had been promulgated to check drug addiction and streets begging.
Similarly, KPCPWA was enacted in 2010 to protect rights of women and children, but it has not been fully implemented on ground, resulting in swarms of beggars in Peshawar.
Esa Khan said the role of Child Welfare Commission (CWC) was important to provide protection to child beggars in KP.
He urged the provincial government to impose a ban on child beggars on the pattern of Sindh province and direct the social welfare department to pick child beggars from markets, roads, traffic signals, streets and rehabilitate them at their welfare centres.
Underscoring the need for launching special schemes for rehabilitation of beggars, Esa Khan urged people to donate alms and charity to their known poor deserving people and charity to reputable charity organizations having clean service records so that their alms could be used for a noble cause.

Three Norwich University students are facing criminal charges following an investigation into allegations of hazing involving female athletes at the military college in Vermont, VT Digger reported.
One student is being charged with simple assault, one with reckless endangerment and one with both simple assault and reckless endangerment, police said. In addition, they and three other students are being ticketed for hazing, which is a civil infraction that carries a fine of between $1,000 and $5,000.
Five of the students are members of the women’s rugby team, and one is on the women’s lacrosse team, the Associated Press reported.
The charges stem from an incident on March 20, when Northfield police received a report from Amanda Lodi, a member of the women’s rugby team, alleging that she had been threatened at knifepoint in a dorm room. In a subsequent interview with police, Lodi said other members of the women’s rugby team “branded” her using pliers and a lighter while she was too intoxicated to object.
Reviewing Lodi’s cellphone with her permission, police found a video showing Lodi herself participating in an alleged hazing attack on another female student, using a “technique I would call waterboarding,” one police officer said.
Norwich said the students involved were immediately suspended from participating in athletic competition. The university has “zero-tolerance regarding hazing misconduct from our students,” Norwich said in a statement, and vowed to take disciplinary action against the perpetrators now that the police investigation is complete.

State-run oil firm Petroecuador has confirmed a ship carrying diesel fuel sank on Saturday off one of Ecuador’s ecologically sensitive Galapagos Islands.
Local authorities assumed that nearly 7,500 litres of diesel were on board the ship at the time of the accident.
The company said as part of an emergency plan, containments booms were set up around the area of the oil spill in a bid to control it and mitigate the impact of the shipwreck.
The Galapagos National Park said there was a presence of a fuel stain at several points of the bay and the water activities were suspended at some sites.
Galapagos Islands are a protected wildlife area and home to unique species of flora and fauna.
The area is also home to giant tortoises.
Petroecuador added that it has been decided as a preventive measure to carry out an additional control on all vessels that come to supply fuel. | https://www.energylivenews.com/2022/04/25/thousands-of-litres-of-diesel-spilled-near-galapagos-islands/ | 2022-04-25T12:57:15Z | https://www.energylivenews.com/2022/04/25/thousands-of-litres-of-diesel-spilled-near-galapagos-islands/ | false | null |

Manchester United rejected by Antonio Rudiger despite 'whopping salary package'
ANTONIO RUDIGER has been flooded with offers after confirming he will leave Chelsea this summer.
Tuchel confirms Rudiger set to leave Chelsea
Manchester United were reportedly rejected by Antonio Rudiger despite offering the defender a 'whopping' salary package. Rudiger will leave Chesea at the end of the season when his contract at Stamford Bridge expires.
While there is still a month to run on the current campaign, it appears that the German has already moved to secure his future. As one of the standout defenders of the past two seasons, Rudiger was flooded with offers.
According to SPORT1, one of these offers came from Chelsea's Premier League rivals United, who are desperate to boost their defensive options. That desperation was reflected in the offer that United made, with the Red Devils said to have been the 'highest bidder'.
It is stated that United offered Rudiger a contract worth in the region of £8.4million per year, 'significantly' more than Chelsea's final offer. Despite the hefty pay rise that the Red Devils were offering though, Rudiger rejected a move to Old Trafford.

Instead of turning out in the red of United next season, Rudiger is instead set to be wearing the white of Real Madrid. SPORT1 report he is in 'advanced negotiations' over a move to the Bernabeu, with the 29-year-old set to sign a four-year contract.
The German is yet to sign the deal, but he is said to 'want' to make his final decision in the next few days. His connection to Chelsea means that he does not want to play for another English club, a stance that ultimately scuppered United's bid.

Madrid are also competing with Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain to sign Rudiger, with the current La Liga table toppers appearing to be ahead of their rivals. It would mark the second major free agent defensive signing in two summers for Madrid, who brought in David Alaba from Bayern Munich last year.
One club who are out of the running to sign Rudiger though is Alaba's former club Bayern. It is stated that the Bundesliga giants made their approach 'too late' with the other interested parties having already done 'convincing work'. | https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1600777/man-utd-antonio-rudiger-contract-real-madrid-transfer-news-SNT | 2022-04-25T12:59:06Z | https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1600777/man-utd-antonio-rudiger-contract-real-madrid-transfer-news-SNT | false | 1 |
