The closet cleaner-turned-Pilates guru who hones the world's most famous bodies: Meet the 32-year-old behind INVITE-ONLY $75 fitness class - who counts Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and Ariana Grande as regulars
- Forma Pilates was launched at the start of the pandemic by owner Liana Levi, 32
- She bought a reformer machine and began teaching acquaintances how to use it - and soon, they were bringing friends like Hailey Bieber
- Forma has three studios in Los Angeles and one in New York, with plans to open another in New York and one in Miami this year
- Clients must be accepted via a referral to earn the privilege to pay for classes - which cost $75 for a 55-minute session with eight people
- There are also $500 private sessions and $650 house calls
- Other famous fans include Kaia Gerber, Addison Rae, Cara Delevingne, Ashley Graham, Rita Ora, Amelia Hamlin, Sofia Richie, and Shanina Shaik
What may just be the most exclusive exercise class in the world costs a whopping $75 per group session — and counts Hailey Bieber, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, and Ariana Grande as fans.
Forma Pilates is fairly new, having launched informally at the start of the pandemic by owner Liana Levi, 32. But it's quickly become a must-go for many of Hollywood and the modeling world's most gorgeous women, who also pay $500 for private sessions and $650 for house calls.
Yet it's not the sky-high price that's keeping out the masses — in fact, there are plenty of fans eager to hand over their money.
Forma Pilates' classes are invite-only — and despite huge demand, Levi intends to keep it that way.
'I don’t cater to the masses, I cater to a demographic,' she told the New York Times.

Forma Pilates is fairly new, having launched informally at the start of the pandemic by owner Liana Levi, 32 - but it's quickly become a must-go for many of Hollywood and the modeling world's most gorgeous women
Levi is a bit of an overnight success story. Though she has been doing Pilates herself for about 12 years, she only got certified in 2019, and her professional background is in fashion.
'I don’t cater to the masses, I cater to a demographic,' Levi said
Prior to opening Forma Pilates, she had worked as a personal shopper and a closet cleaner, and had gigs working for celebrity stylist Cristina Ehrlich and jewelry designer Jacquie Aiche.
But at the start of the pandemic, she bought her first reformer machine. She likes the $9,499 Merrithew's V2 Max Plus, which she called 'the Rolls-Royce of Pilates equipment.'
Soon, she had curious friends and acquaintances asking if they could try the equipment, and she helped them learn it.
'My acquaintances would be like, "Oh, my god, I want to try it,"' she told the Wall Street Journal. '"Your body looks insane; I want to come." It just kind of spread through word of mouth.'
Clients must be accepted via a referral to earn the privilege to pay for classes - and Levi makes everyone pay, even the stars
She started teaching classes during the pandemic, when acquaintances complimented her body and said they wanted to try her reformer machine
'What started out as my own practice and method of strengthening as well as healing my mind during an uncertain and chaotic time, soon turned into a safe heaven for many others,' she said
Soon she was charging for sessions, with more and more people coming to her pool house studio.
'What started out as my own practice and method of strengthening as well as healing my mind during an uncertain and chaotic time, soon turned into a safe heaven for many others,' she told The Daily Front Row.
One day, a friend bought Hailey Bieber to class.
More and more stars have showed up, including Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Ariana Grande, Bella Hadid, Kaia Gerber, Addison Rae, Sara Foster, Cara Delevingne, Adwoa Aboah, Ashley Graham, Rita Ora, Amelia Hamlin, Sofia Richie, and Shanina Shaik.
But not just anyone can come: Clients must be accepted via a referral to earn the privilege to pay for classes — and Levi makes everyone pay, even the stars.
'I wanted to be a boutique style, private studio — referral-based for only elite,' she told the Times. 'I wanted to cater to a specific demographic, I didn’t want to compete with all the studios in the area.'
'My acquaintances would be like, "Oh, my god, I want to try it,"' she told the Wall Street Jounal. '"Your body looks insane; I want to come." It just kind of spread through word of mouth'
When the Times pressed her on what, exactly, her demographic was, she would only say: 'not masses'
Levi continued to expand beyond her pool house, opening three studios in Los Angeles and one in New York City. Two more, in New York and Miami, are planned for later this year

Levi continued to expand beyond her pool house, opening three studios in Los Angeles and one in New York City. Two more, in New York and Miami, are planned for later this year.
'I’m trying to be in L.A., New York, Miami, Paris, London — in hot spots where my clients go to,' she told WSJ. 'I’m not going to Chicago, I’m not going to Atlanta, I’m not going to Canada.'
A 55-minute group class with eight people costs a staggering $75, nearly twice as much as SoulCycle's $38 per class and still more than celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson's $45 classes.
Levi, who now has nine other instructors working under her at Forma Fitness, also offers two- to four-person classes for $100 per person, $500 private studio sessions, and $650 house calls.
Star clients include Hailey Bieber (pictured leaving a Forma studio), Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Ariana Grande, Bella Hadid, Kaia Gerber, and Sara Foster
Other clients include Addison Rae (pictured leaving a class), Cara Delevingne, Adwoa Aboah, Ashley Graham, Rita Ora, Amelia Hamlin, and Sofia Richie

Shanina Shaik posted on Instagram last year about her Pilates routine, tagging Forma
The most budget-friendly option is to stream classes online, which requires a $49 per month subscription and $20 charge per session.
For in-person sessions, classes fill up fast.
Sessions led by Levi are especially difficult to get into, and her morning classes are only for her VIP clients. For anyone else to get in, a VIP would have to cancel within 24 hours.
Levi has no trouble describing her own appeal.
'I’m young, I’m relatable, I’m cool,' she said. 'I create personal relationships. A lot of people in the fitness industry are…tree-hugging, nature people.'
As for her technique, she focuses on abs and glues with fast transitions — and individualized attention.

A 55-minute group class with eight people costs a staggering $75. There are also two- to four-person classes for $100 per person, $500 private studio sessions, and $650 house calls
'I think people have lost interest in doing big group classes… especially for Pilates, which is such intricate movements and one inch of adjustment makes a world of difference,' she said.
'The Forma Method differs from other Pilates methods because it is contemporary Pilates with a twist. I focus on creating a flow throughout my sessions, quick and seamless transitions, with little time for breaks.
'Unlike traditional Pilates, I prefer to get straight into a burn, maintain it throughout the session, rather than warm up the body and then finish by cooling down the body,' she told the Daily Front Row. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10764745/This-invite-Pilates-class-costs-75-SESSION-Hailey-Bieber-Ariana-Grande-fans.html | 2022-04-29T13:57:13Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10764745/This-invite-Pilates-class-costs-75-SESSION-Hailey-Bieber-Ariana-Grande-fans.html | false | 3 |

For an authentic 12-inch pizza at home, you not only require the best ingredients you can lay your hands on but also a genuine pizza oven with an operating temperature of up to 400˚C and beyond.
Ooni is the most popular pizza oven brand in the UK, but Sage makes an exception indoor/outdoor pizza oven.
We’ve gathered together a quintet of fine pizza oven contenders that bake pizzas as well as any restaurant oven, replete with crisp bases and tall, airy crusts.
Best pizza ovens at a glance
- Best for restaurant quality pizzas: Sage the Smart Oven Pizzaiolo
- Best simple pizza oven: Ooni Koda 12
- Best for wood-fired pizza: Delivita Outdoor Pizza Oven
- Best budget pizza oven: Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Pellet Pizza
- Best portable pizza oven: Gozney Roccbox
The pizza-making process
Now, you could make the pizza dough yourself using the finest Italian OO flour, good quality salt, olive oil and some yeast but unless you’re a decent cook or baker, you may find it difficult to create dough balls as good as those made by the professionals.
If you want to opt-out of dough making, buy in some pre-made dough balls. This will not only save you a lot of time and mess, you’ll likely be happier with the results. We list some first-rate dough ball suppliers below.
Preparation is another important factor, as is the use of the best ingredients you can lay your hands on. There are great YouTube demonstrations on how to stretch and build pizza.
The best mozzarella to use is the type that comes in a bag of liquid, be it normal or Buffalo. Make sure you dry the pieces of mozzarella on some paper towel 30 minutes before baking or any remaining moisture in the cheese will turn the centre of the pizza into an unsightly pink pool of cheese and passata.
Best pizza dough providers
Granted, you will have to order a dozen or so dough balls at a time but they keep for ages in the freezer. Simply defrost in the fridge overnight, take them out a few hours before to reach room temperature and cover with a damp tea towel to proof.
Massarellas: Massarellas is based in Yorkshire and they ship their amazing Sourdough and Classic varieties to most of mainland UK.
The Sourdough version, especially, produces outstanding pizzas with mountainous crusts that are light as a feather.
Ooni: Ooni is arguably the most popular consumer-based pizza oven brand in the UK. It also ships top-notch semi-frozen sourdough pizza dough balls to your door – mainland UK only.
The minimum order is 24 dough balls but they keep for months and freezing doesn’t affect the final results, which are scrumptious.
Northern Dough: These dough balls can be found in pairs in most supermarket freezer sections. They’re not quite up there with the tough competition above but they are certainly the most convenient to buy.

Sage the Smart Oven Pizzaiolo
Best for: Convenience and consistency
Most consumer pizza ovens are of the outdoor variety but this one’s designed for indoor and outdoor use.
Sage is one of the world’s finest small home appliance manufacturers and this bona fide pizza oven is one of the best products they’ve ever created.
The Pizzaiolo uses two electric elements – one below the pizza stone and one above – and some clever computer trickery to produce some of the best pizzas you’ll ever bake.
It’s effortless to use and far and away the most consistent model on this page. Moreover, because the 12-inch pizza stone moves outwards when you open the door, there is almost zero chance of you burning your hand as you place or remove the pizza.
This 400˚C pizza oven heats up in about 25 minutes and automatically produces a variety of scrumptious pizzas at the turn of a dial: slow-baked deep dish, roman, New Yorker. In short, no other pizza oven on this page can match it for fuss-free convenience and unswerving consistency.
No, it’s not cheap at all but if you really like pizza, flatbreads, nans etc, you won’t find a more efficient all-seasons machine.
Ooni Koda 12
Best for: Ease of use
This cracking Ooni oven uses gas for added convenience. All you need is a typical 5kg canister of Patio Gas for amazing 12-inch pizzas and, what’s more, without the need for continually having to add fuel to the fire.
The Ooni Koda doesn’t have a chimney like its wood-burning stablemates because it hardly produces any smoke. Pizza purists may baulk at the thought of using a moisture-producing heat source like gas, but you’ll be hard pressed to tell the difference between the pizzas this cracking contender produces and its admittedly more authentic wood-fired counterparts.
Also, the chimney-less design makes it easier to transport and store away (it weighs just 9.24kgs).
Unlike Ooni’s chimney ovens, the Koda 12 comes out of the box pretty much pre-assembled – simply attach the gas bottle, carefully insert the supplied cordierite stone, fire it up and, in just 15 minutes or so, you can start baking.
Although the flames from the seat of the fire at the rear lick over the entire pizza, you will still need to turn the pizza at least once during the baking process so keep an eye on the back of the oven in case it starts to burn the crust.
DeliVita
Best for: Authentic wood-fired pizzas
If only the very best in authentic wood-fired pizza making will do and you have the financial wherewithal to fork out over a grand, then the DeliVita will repay your investment with classic results time after time.
However, you will have to work hard at it because wood-fired pizza ovens require a lot of attention from the warm-up period all the way through the baking process. You will need to be on the ball or the pizza feast will turn into a disaster.
The key thing is to light the fuel – kindling in this case – 40 minutes before baking time. You will also need to reach deep into the back of the oven with a long hoe-type tool to move the embers clear of the baking area before shoving in the pizza.
The igloo-shaped DeliVita weighs about 30 kilos – fairly heavy, in other words – and it comes in six striking colours. The heavy-duty insulation does a superb job of keeping the interior furnace hot – up to and over 500˚C – so that pizza bases are baked to a crisp finish every time.
Ooni Fyra 12
Best for: Value
Ooni is unquestionably this country’s most popular pizza oven manufacturer. The keenly-priced Fyra 12 runs on wood pellets like those used in pellet barbecues, weighs just 10kgs and comes with a 12-inch baking stone.
All Ooni pizza ovens are a doddle to assemble and this one is no different – simply attach the chimney and the rear-mounted pellet hopper, unfold the three legs and carefully slide in the cordierite stone.
To use the Fyra 12, simply load the hopper with pellets and ignite them using a small piece of fire lighter. Leave for at least 30 minutes until the stone reaches 400˚C or above and carefully shove in the prepared pizza using a 12-inch peel of your choice.
Keep an eye on the pizza because it will be done in less than 90 seconds – absolutely do not chat with a mate, even for just a few seconds or you may be pulling out a black, charred disk. You will also need to turn the pizza mid bake or the rear part nearest the seat of the fire may burn.
Best budget buy by far.
Gozney Roccbox
Best for: High-end pizza baking
Yorkshire-based Gozney produces both consumer and commercial pizza ovens so it knows the business well. This 12-inch gas-fired model can also be altered to burn wood kindling with the correct aftermarket accessory.
It also comes out of the package ready assembled though, at 20kgs, it is a heavyweight beast. Unlike most outdoor pizza ovens, this one comes with a built in thermometer which is handy for at-a-glance temperature reading.
Gozney’s patented baffle plate ensures the rolling flame from the gas or wood source covers the entire top of the pizza which in turn ensures a mostly even bake.
The Roccbox comes with three folding legs which keep it sturdy on any table. When finished with, simply fold up the legs and manhandle the unit into the shed for safekeeping. If you’re after an exceedingly well designed and very attractive pizza oven for the patio then this one fits the bill. | https://www.stornowaygazette.co.uk/recommended/best-pizza-ovens-uk-2022-ooni-wood-fire-pellet-3232606 | 2022-04-29T14:01:59Z | https://www.stornowaygazette.co.uk/recommended/best-pizza-ovens-uk-2022-ooni-wood-fire-pellet-3232606 | false | 32 |

Concern for Auckland’s resident leopard seal, Owha, after fishing hook stuck in mouth
There are concerns for Auckland’s resident leopard seal, Owha, after fishing hooks, a sinker and line were removed from her mouth on Thursday.
Experts tracking Owha on Friday morning were worried that she was still displaying signs of agitation and potentially still had a hook stuck in her, that she had swallowed down.
LeopardSeals.org co-founder Dr Ingrid Visser was with the seal on Friday morning and said she would only rest for 30 minutes before becoming agitated again - rolling, gaping and yawning.
Either she was still recovering, had swallowed some fishing line, or, worst case scenario, had a hooked stuck further down her throat, she said

* Have you seen Owha? Search for injured leopard seal with foreign object in her mouth
Photos taken on Friday morning showed that her mouth, teeth and tongue were clear of any fishing gear and there was no permanent damage.
“It’s now a waiting game. There are techniques that you can use for domestic animals like swallowing bread that wraps around the hook and pulls it clear… but [Owha] is a wild animal.”
The first report of trouble with Owha came mid-Wednesday, co-founder Krista Van Der Linde said, with a call from Westhaven marina - one of Owha’s favourite hang out spots.
A volunteer was able to make it down to take photographs, but it wasn’t until the next day when the team was able to get a glimpse at the inside of her mouth and start making plans for a recovery.
The removal of the gear involved a joint effort from LeopardSeals.org, the Department of Conservation and Auckland Zoo, where a long pole with scissors on the end was used to cut free all the different pieces.
Visser said they were asking for anyone who knew what happened to come forward, as they knew it was often an accident - but were needing to know if there’s any further equipment still stuck in Owha.
Any sightings of Owha can be reported to LeopardSeals.org on 0800 Leopard as the group continue to monitor the seal over the coming weeks.
Owha has previously had to deal with a gun shot wound to the nose. | https://www.stuff.co.nz/environment/300576021/concern-for-aucklands-resident-leopard-seal-owha-after-fishing-hook-stuck-in-mouth | 2022-04-29T14:06:35Z | https://www.stuff.co.nz/environment/300576021/concern-for-aucklands-resident-leopard-seal-owha-after-fishing-hook-stuck-in-mouth | false | 1 |

President Cyril Ramaphosa should “consider” the position of Deputy State Security Minister Zizi Kodwa who finds himself “beholden” and financially indebted to a former executive of tech company EOH, which allegedly donated millions of rands to the ANC in exchange for City of Johannesburg tender awards.
This was among the damning recommendations in part four of the Zondo commission’s state capture report, which was released on Friday.
The report highlights, among other things, the firm’s more than R11-million in “donations” to the ANC and individuals, as well as contracts in excess of R400-million that were awarded to EOH to upgrade the city’s information technology network and security and to provide software licences.
The report focuses on the “improper” relationships between EOH former executives and associates and Kodwa, as well as the city’s former mayor, Geoff Makhubo, who died of Covid-19 complications in July 2021.
The commission has recommended law enforcement agencies investigate at least two of the city’s tender contract awards in 2014 and 2016, with a view to the prosecution of EOH former executives and associates Patrick Makhubedu, Reno Barry, Jehan Mackay, Ebrahim Laher, Nyiko Mutileni and any other suspects identified in the investigation, on charges under the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act 12 of 2004 if investigators found this was warranted.
But, according to the report, Kodwa was not directly implicated in any of these investigations, although Makhubo had allegedly played a role.
Kodwa was not a public official but an employee and spokesperson for the ANC at the time he benefited from payments totaling more than R1.7-million, including a “loan” for the purchase of a Jeep motor vehicle that he bought on 6 June 2015.
EOH related entities and Mackay made cash payments in the aggregate amount of R1 680 000 to Kodwa and another R30 000 for his benefit between 28 April 2015 to 2 February 2014, the commission found.
The commission’s report described these activities as “the attempt by Mr Jehan Mackay to manipulate his relationship with Mr Zizi Kodwa to Distort Public Procurement Practices”.
Kodwa told the commission that the R1-million was a loan, but the transaction reference on the business statement for the account from which it was paid described the payment as “NG KODWA (ANC DONA-JM)”.
The report said this suggested that the paying entity, Tactical Software Solutions, “had been informed that the million rand payment was a donation to the ANC, or possibly to Mr Kodwa himself”.
In addition, companies linked to Mackay and EOH paid hundreds of thousands of rands for luxury rental accommodation for Kodwa, who told the commission he believed Mackay owned the properties.
He had also testified that the R1 710 000 payments were made at his request, by or on behalf of Mackay, at times when he was in “financial difficulties”.
“On his own version, Mr Kodwa has never been in a position to repay Mackay the amounts of the loans … and has not repaid any of these amounts. However, he insists they were not payments made as a quid pro quo for any assistance on his part. In particular, he denies that the payments and the luxury accommodation were in any way related to the procurement of government contracts by EOH or related companies,” the report said.
Apart from these benefits, Mackay had also regularly contacted Kodwa regarding “substantial donations” to be made to the ANC by the EOH group.
“Whatever the subjective intentions of Kodwa, it is clear Mackay was attempting to buy influence by making the ‘loans’ that he made to Kodwa and by providing Kodwa with luxury accommodation. He repeatedly attempted to engage Kodwa in relation to pending EOH Group tenders,” the report said.
Barely a month after Kodwa bought the jeep, Mackay e-mailed him to ask him to “look into” the disqualification of EOH from a R360-million department of home affairs tender. He also reminded Kodwa “to talk to the regional funding coordinator to understand what their funding requirements are”.
“It also insinuated that Mackay might be holding out the prospect of a large donation to the ANC as a quid pro quo for Kodwa’s requested intervention,” the report said.
The commission said it had “seen no evidence to show impropriety” on Kodwa’s part in relation to Mackay’s attempts to “induce him to interfere with procurement processes in the interests of EOH” but it had not been able to investigate what Kodwa may or may not have done because of time constraints,.
“It would not be difficult for an influential or important figure in a political party that is the majority party in a municipality to influence either officials within such a municipality or councillors to influence relevant officials.
“This point is made here in general and not necessarily suggesting that the commission is aware of any evidence that Mr Kodwa did not influence anybody to do anything improper or unlawful … However, as Deputy Minister for State Security, Mr Kodwa now finds himself in an impossible position,” the report said.
“Mr Kodwa is beholden to Mr Jehan Mackay to whom he owes more than R1.7-million.”
The report added that if the recommendations of the commission were implemented, Mackay would be the subject of multiple criminal investigations.
“It is untenable for the deputy minister of state security to find himself in a position where he is beholden to a suspect in multiple criminal investigations,” read the report.
The commission recommended that the president “considers” Kodwa’s current post “having regard to the fact that Kodwa appears to find himself in a position where he is beholden to Mr Jehan Mackay”. | https://mg.co.za/politics/2022-04-29-zondo-report-zizi-kodwa-beholden-to-a-potential-suspect-in-multiple-criminal-investigations/ | 2022-04-29T14:10:08Z | https://mg.co.za/politics/2022-04-29-zondo-report-zizi-kodwa-beholden-to-a-potential-suspect-in-multiple-criminal-investigations/ | true | 1 |
The Post Office is launching an in-branch money transfer service under an agreement with Western Union from this autumn.
The cross-border money transfer services will be offered in a minimum of 4,000 Post Office branches.
The move will help to offer customers a “one-stop” experience, where they can access cash, transfer money overseas to loved ones and at the same time send letters and parcels to relatives and friends abroad, the Post Office said.
The in-branch money transfer service with Western Union will roll out from autumn 2022 under the plans.
Previously, Western Union customers could only use the Post Office website for money transfer services.
The Post Office operates 11,500 branches across the UK. In many communities it is the “last counter in town” where people can securely and conveniently deposit and withdraw cash.
Nick Read, chief executive of the Post Office, said: “I am delighted to be expanding our partnership with Western Union, allowing customers to choose whether they want to use the money transfer service digitally or prefer to do it face-to-face.
“Postmasters are knowledgeable, reliable and can provide that assurance that a transaction has gone through with a printed receipt which many of our customers still value. Furthermore, this expanded partnership helps drive footfall into 4,000 of our branches providing postmasters with increased remuneration opportunities.”
Devin McGranahan, Western Union president and CEO, said: “As we continue to expand our global network, we will seek not only to improve access, but also, importantly, working with our partners, to truly transform the retail experience we offer our customers, in the UK and across the world.”

Vancouver is raising the tax that prods owners of empty homes to rent their vacant properties in order to help ease the city’s low vacancy rate.
Councillors have unanimously backed a motion from Mayor Kennedy Stewart to hike the empty homes tax to five per cent of a property’s assessed value, effective next year.
In a social media message posted after the motion was approved late Wednesday, Stewart says boosting the tax from three per cent is a “big blow to housing speculators.”
The motion also doubles the number of annual compliance audits to 20,000 and Stewart says it includes measures to improve fairness, ensuring the tax is not assessed on homes that legitimately qualify for an exemption.
The tax was introduced in 2017 as a one-per-cent levy designed to return empty and underutilized properties to the market as long-term rental homes in an effort to raise the city’s barely one-per-cent vacancy rate, the lowest in Canada.
It was raised to three per cent last year and Stewart has said the increase has brought in about $32 million for affordable housing and “returned” more than 4,000 homes to locals.
Further increases are possible and Stewart has described the tax as an important step in tackling Vancouver’s housing affordability crisis.
Vancouver homeowners are required to submit a declaration each year to determine if their property is subject to the assessment, but the city’s website says most homes are exempt because the tax does not apply to principal residences or homes rented for at least six months of the year.

Christian Eriksen school hunting amid big Tottenham or Brentford decision - EXCLUSIVE
CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN faces a tough choice between Tottenham and current club Brentford this summer.
Christian Eriksen has been school hunting in Chiswick as the Brentford playmaker makes a big decision over his future, Express Sport understands. The Tottenham icon has been linked with a return to his former club where he is admired by his ex-Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte.
Brentford have been handed a major boost in their bid to keep the ace as Express Sport has learned that the midfielder was school hunting in Chiswick, west London, on Friday morning. Eriksen and girlfriend Sabrina Kvist are looking for a pre-school to take in their first child, Alfred, who will turn four in June.
Eriksen has settled in west London with Kvist and their two children since moving from Italy four months ago. The second child was born in January 2021.
School hunting in Chiswick suggests that Eriksen could be inclined to remain with Brentford, the club that offered him the chance to reprise his glittering football career. It does not entirely rule out a move to Spurs, though, with Enfield only an hour’s drive away.
JUST IN: Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel 'adds two more stars to transfer wishlist'
Eriksen signed a six-month contract with Brentford in January after being released by Inter at the end of 2021. Serie A rules prevent players competing with an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD), which the 30-year-old had fitted after suffering a cardiac arrest at Euro 2020.
Brentford have shot up the Premier League table since Eriksen’s arrival and are well clear of relegation. Thomas Frank - the Danish boss who convinced countryman Eriksen to join - has guided the West London club to 12th and onto 40 points.
Eriksen has provided two assists since signing and scored in Brentford’s memorable 4-1 win over neighbours Chelsea in early April. The Bees have suffered defeat just once when the former Ajax man has been on the pitch.

Brentford hope Eriksen will stay despite interest from Spurs. Conte took the ace to Inter in January 2020 and is understood to harbour hopes of a free transfer back to North London in the summer.
“I would love to say that I am confident, I am very positive and very hopeful that he will stay but it will be a decision at the end of the season,” Brentford boss Frank said when asked if he was confident of keeping Eriksen this summer.
“I will do what I can but it’s down to Christian, where it’s like everything if you decide to go to one club or another, you buy that house or another house, you take that job or another job.
“There must be pros and cons and I always say if you make it an eight-two decision, where you have eight pros and two cons, then you are in a good position. I hope Christian makes the right choice for him and his family and I really hope it will be us.” | https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1603178/Christian-Eriksen-school-hunting-Tottenham-Brentford-transfer-EXCLUSIVE | 2022-04-29T14:22:28Z | https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1603178/Christian-Eriksen-school-hunting-Tottenham-Brentford-transfer-EXCLUSIVE | false | 1 |
A pack of wolves reportedly seen in a Colorado county turned out to be a group of much tamer, fluffier animals.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife told the Park County Sheriff’s Office that it received a report and a video of what seemed to be a possible wolf sighting. After investigating, the sheriff determined that the animals were a gaggle of St. Bernards, the sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post.
The dogs, which live with their owner in the area, have been known to get out of their enclosure, the sheriff’s office said.
“The dogs’ owner has confirmed the five dogs were running loose on Monday, April 25, when the alleged wolf sighting occurred,” the sheriff’s office wrote. “The video was shot from a very long distance away and the lighting and shadows made it difficult to determine what type of large, four-legged animals were running near an elk herd.”
Officials from Colorado Parks and Wildlife flew a plane over the area on April 27 and didn’t find evidence of wolves or elk that might have been attacked by them, contributing to the conclusion that the animals seen were pets, the post said.
The dogs’ owner was cited by Park County Animal Control for allowing a dog to run at large, the sheriff’s office said.
St. Bernards, called the “genial giant of the Swiss Alps” by the American Kennel Club, can weigh as much as 180 pounds. They’re known to be affectionate and good with children — unlike their wolf relatives. Park County is about 117 miles south of Denver. | https://www.oregonlive.com/environment/2022/04/pack-of-wolves-turned-out-to-be-a-gang-of-naughty-st-bernards.html | 2022-04-29T14:22:38Z | https://www.oregonlive.com/environment/2022/04/pack-of-wolves-turned-out-to-be-a-gang-of-naughty-st-bernards.html | true | 2 |
If you have curly hair, you’ve probably heard of wash and go. This hair care routine embraces the natural curl pattern by forgoing heat styling, braids, and other forms of curl manipulation, which can be hugely beneficial in terms of hair health and curl integrity. The method is deemed to be one of the easiest natural hairstyles — but it’s not quite as simple as it sounds.
“You need the right products and tools. The idea that you literally wash and go is not the full story,” Janine Jarman, curl expert and founder of Hairroin Salon + Curl Cult, tells TZR. “You wet your hair, add the right mix of curl support, scrunch the moisture out with the right towel, then go. It can take a minute to get used to, but when you're in the swing of it, it's so easy and great for the health of your hair.”
“Wash and gos are amazing for keeping the hair and scalp in good condition as you are not using heat and manipulation to shape and pull the hair,” says Michelle Sultan, celebrity hairstylist and brand ambassador for Imbue. Plus, adds celebrity curl expert and founder of Curl Queen, Nai’vasha, “the hair texture seems to be a bit more authentic when washing and going.”
So, what does an ideal wash and go routine look like? While it may differ slightly depending on your hair type (the experts agree that tighter curls usually need more moisture), the steps should follow the same general pattern: wetting or shampooing, conditioning, combing or finger coiling the curls, adding a curl cream and/or leave-in conditioner, and allowing hair to air dry.
Ahead, the experts breakdown exactly how to do a wash and go no matter your curl type and the product you’ll need along the way.
We at TZR only include products that have been independently selected by our editors. We may receive a portion of sales if you purchase a product through a link in this article.
Step One: Shampoo & Condition
Start by cleansing with a sulfate-free shampoo, such as the Kérastase Discipline Bain Fluidealiste Shampoo. Then, apply a conditioner or hydrating mask — or both, if you feel like your hair needs the extra moisture.
“Imbue’s Curl Restoring Intensive Mask will nourish your hair from the inside out and lock in much-needed protein to help curls form and feel strong,” says Sultan. “Follow with a conditioner that you can use to help comb or brush through any remaining tangles and also to start your curls or coils to clump together. I love the Curl Respecting Conditioner by Imbue for this part as it really works and leaves the hair feeling incredible.”
Step Two: Extra Hydration
You can also add in a leave-in conditioner for additional hydration; Jarman recommends the Curl Cult Magic Spell. “[It] has plex and pea protein to hydrate and repair, and it also has great UV protection. Although you are not using hot tools, your hair still needs protection from the sun,” she says.
For more coily hair types this step is crucial as this type of hair tends to be dryer and requires more hydration with a style like this. Water-based leave-in conditioners are ideal so the hair doesn’t get too weighed down with product or leave that dreaded white cast on the curls.
Step Three: Separate, Define Curls, & Dry
Next, begin to separate out the curls using a wide-tooth comb or your fingers. Sultan recommends following up with a curl cream and scrunching the product through the hair. “This is the point where you ‘go,’” she says. “Leave the hair to dry naturally. This can take a while if you live in colder climates. My advice is DO NOT TOUCH whilst the hair is drying as you may cause the hair to frizz and break up the curl pattern.” An alternative is to use a diffuser or a dryer with a diffuser attachment and hold close to the curls starting from the back and working your way up to the front, all around your head, making sure to dry at various angles to ensure that your entire head is dried evenly.
Finally, gently shake out your hair using your hands or a large rake to add volume and shape. It may take some time to nail down your perfect wash and go routine, but once you find it, it can be a real game changer. “It’s an easy routine to stick to,” Sultan says. “It’s foolproof once you know what your hair likes and what turns out best.” | https://www.thezoereport.com/beauty/wash-and-go-tips | 2022-04-29T14:26:19Z | https://www.thezoereport.com/beauty/wash-and-go-tips | true | 1 |
Cancer, a dashed reality show and the decline of the competitive dance scene injected chaos and perspective into mother-daughter duo Katrina and Jasmine Lairsmith’s lives over the last two years.
As befits mom Katrina’s entrepreneurial bent — she’s founded and run multiple Denver-area dance studios and troupes over the last three decades — those things only motivated them to work harder. That includes finding, leasing and building out a 2,500-square-foot space on South Broadway in a little over two months, with an opening date set for May 1.
The project? The Collabratory Complex, a membership-based “collaborative laboratory” for dancers and artists. It sits just west of a patch of asphalt off a stretch of South Broadway better known for its weed dispensaries and antique shops than the performing arts..
“When I was a kid, all I would do is take a bus and up and down Broadway,” Katrina, 50, said as she stood on the reclaimed basketball-court floors at the mini arts complex. “I’d go to Cinderella City Mall, right there at Broadway and Hampden. We didn’t have any money so I’d just walk around. My grandfather also used to read tarot cards at (South Broadway venue) Herman’s Hideaway.”
That makes the Lairsmith’s new building at 1974 S. Acoma St., just steps away from a pair of massive residential construction projects, especially meaningful, she said. So far she’s sunk about $100,000 into renovating the one-story space, a slim but solid structure with a tricked-out lobby/would-be cafe, photo studio and a spacious, high-ceilinged studio soaked in natural light.
“I’d much rather work behind the scenes,” said Jasmine, 26, who left a competitive dance career in Los Angeles to return to her family in Denver. She maintains a thirsty, fashion-forward Instagram account with more than 20,000 followers. “I’d like to work on building out a music studio here, and we’ve already got rentals coming in.”
The Lairsmiths hail from the spangled, eyeliner-ed world of competitive dance, and their insistent self-promotion has served them well over the years — at least until the pandemic hit. Once that world froze in its tracks, they were forced to look elsewhere to make money. They applied for and were accepted onto an HBO reality show called “My Mom, Your Dad,” which follows a group of single parents “who have been nominated by their college-age kids for a second chance at love,” according to HBO.
However, when the results of Katrina’s contractually obliged bloodwork came back, producers told her she needed to consult a doctor. She assumed it was COVID, having just finished a two-week quarantine before filming was set to begin last summer.
“They knew I had cancer and wouldn’t tell me,” she said. “And when I found out, it was literally 12 hours after my father had passed.”
That was on July 2, 2021, Lairsmith said, and the timing of his passing from colon cancer was a message to her. Her father had always encouraged her to follow her most ambitious dreams, including a test version of the Collabratory Complex that sprouted up in Curtis Park just before the pandemic. He wanted her to use her inheritance for such a project, she said.
Fortunately, Lairsmith’s own cancer diagnosis — an uncommon blood-cell cancer called chronic myeloid leukemia — was caught in stage 1 before it could spread, she said, and her ongoing treatment extends to taking a daily pill. She feels incredibly lucky, motivated and clear-headed, she said, and the timing of everything has continued to be meaningful to her.
She signed the lease for the Collabratory Complex on Jan. 26, which is Lairsmith’s father’s birthday.
Thanks to her father’s cash infusion, the pair has big plans for the space in the coming months. It’s already hosted capacity crowds of 150 for national dance sessions from Justin Bieber’s choreographers, who swung by when he was playing his Ball Arena concert on March 16, and TikTok dance sensations Cost n’ Mayor.
They envision a $150-per month membership that gives creatives access to the photo and dance studio/black-box theater, the cafe-esque co-working space, regular yoga, and other evolving programming, in addition to space for whatever creatives might be hanging around. In relative terms, it’s tiny for an arts complex. But if the model bears out, the Lairsmiths want to copy and paste it in more cities. There’s potential because it’s open to everyone, they said, not just dancers.
For the May 1 opening, they’re holding a 12:30 p.m. ribbon-cutting, yoga, free classes and performances, an open dance lab, and a mini-party with local vendors and drinks. It wraps up with a dance class from Katrina, who hasn’t taught “in more than a year, since all this (stuff’s) gone down.”
“It should be very emotional and exciting,” she said as she sat behind the space’s welcome desk, flanked by pink neon signage and a glass-doored mini-fridge of energy drinks. Outside, a new, street-facing mural by artist Pat Milbery proclaims BE HERE NOW — one of Lairsmith’s father’s favorite phrases. “That’s the spirit of it. Live, now.” | https://www.denverpost.com/2022/04/29/katrina-jasmine-lairsmith-collabratory-complex-denver-dance-studio/ | 2022-04-29T14:26:55Z | https://www.denverpost.com/2022/04/29/katrina-jasmine-lairsmith-collabratory-complex-denver-dance-studio/ | true | 1 |
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP)The Patriots made a move down the board, then another to replenish their offensive line, selecting guard Cole Strange with the 29th pick in the NFL draft on Thursday night.
New England entered the night with needs to fill at linebacker and in its secondary, but chose to first fortify the protection up front around second-year quarterback Mac Jones.
Patience paid off for New England last year when it opted not to trade up during a quarterback-rich draft and still ended up getting its top target in Jones.
This year the Patriots were part of a flurry of first-round trades, dealing the 21st overall pick to Kansas City in exchange for the 29th pick, a third-round pick (94th overall) and fourth-round pick (121st overall).
It marked the 18th straight draft that New England has made at least one draft-day trade.
”I’m glad Cole was there when we picked,” coach Bill Belichick said. ”He wouldn’t have lasted much longer.”
Strange said the Patriots were getting a player whose style is ”aggressive and relentless.”
”Aggressive and trying to play nasty,” he said. ”How the game of football is supposed to be played.”
Belichick said they entertained various scenarios with their original No. 21 spot that included discussions with multiple teams.
The ultimate decision to make the deal with the Chiefs landed the Patriots the 6-foot-5, 307-pound Strange, a five-year starter at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga who was selected as a third-team FCS AP All-American for the Moccasins as a senior this season.
He met with the Patriots at both his Pro Day and at the Senior Bowl, where he reportedly stood out during the week of practice.
Strange believes that week was key in him proving he could play at the NFL level.
”I think the Senior Bowl helped me quite a bit,” he said. ”The week of exposure playing against guys from FCS schools, SEC schools, Big Ten schools showed scouts I was competitive enough.”
He played guard and center in college and could be a candidate to fill some of New England’s voids on the line after it traded right guard Shaq Mason and lost utility offensive lineman Ted Karras in free agency.
”He’s long, he’s athletic. He’s physically tough. He’s an aggressive player,” Belichick said of the team’s evaluation of Cole. ”I think he has a good combination of skills, run and pass.. … All of which will hopefully get better.”
In addition to bolstering the O-line, injecting youth and speed into a defense that has been skewing older at linebacker will likely be a focus for New England in Days 2 and 3 of the draft. That became more evident following the decisions to release Kyle Van Noy and to not re-sign veterans Dont’a Hightower and Jamie Collins
The Patriots also are in need of depth in the secondary after letting cornerback J.C. Jackson leave during free agency.
New England has at least one pick in every round to help replenish its roster, including two picks each in the third and fourth rounds, and three picks in the sixth round. The Patriots begin Friday with one pick each in the second and third rounds.

Antonio Conte has stated that reports linking him with the Paris Saint-Germain hot seat is "fake news". Only arriving at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in November after replacing Nuno Espirito Santo at the helm, the Italian's long-term future has been a talking point at times during his tenure.
Following reports that former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino looks likely to leave the PSG job at the end of the season despite guiding the club to the title, French publication Le Parisien claimed that Conte has offered himself to the Ligue 1 side. Asked about the rumours when speaking to the media ahead of Sunday's game against Leicester City, the 52-year-old has said that he does not like it when people try to "invent news".
"Obviously I think that it's good that other clubs appreciate my work. This is one thing. But the truth is that I don't like when people try to invest news - only to speak, only to create problems," he said in his pre-match press conference. "This is not right, not fair for me, for the clubs involved and for my players.
"Also because we're really focused on these five games to get a fantastic result for us. I repeat, this type of situation makes me smile. But I think that also the people that want to tell something about this have to show respect for all the people involved in this situation, and not invent fake news and tell a lot of lies."

When asked by football.london about what he would say to Spurs fans given the reports about the PSG position, he added: "In this moment our fans, me, the players, the club, the fans we need to be focused, we need to be concentrated on an important target for us. We have a big opportunity to try to get a place in the Champions League.
"It's a big opportunity for us because no one can imagine to stay and fight for this target in this league now in this moment. In the past it was different, but now you know very well what I said in the past that it would be a miracle to get this achievement.
"Now it would be very important to be focused and not listen to fake news and the people that for sure want to create problems for the environment. We have to play these five games and then you know, because I answer a lot of times, that at the end of the season in a private way I will speak with my club and I will see the best solution." | https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/fixtures-results/antonio-conte-psg-job-tottenham-23824082 | 2022-04-29T14:32:25Z | https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/fixtures-results/antonio-conte-psg-job-tottenham-23824082 | true | 1 |

Delhi has recorded its second hottest April in 72 years with an average monthly maximum temperature of 40.2 degrees Celsius, said the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) on Friday. The national capital on Friday touched highest temperatures of 46 degrees Celsius. However, according to the weather department, the temperature is likely to drop after May 2.
The blistering heatwave sweeping through vast swathes of the country intensified on Thursday with the mercury crossing the 45-degree mark at several places. Amid unprecedented heatwave, several states are also facing power cuts - linked to deepening coal shortage crisis - that have disrupted normal life for tens of thousands. In the national capital, Delhi power minister Satyendar Jain on Thursday held an emergency meeting, and urged the central government to ensure adequate coal supply. Power cuts have also been reported in Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat and Haryana as mercury continues to rise.

ECB's Lane say first rate hike is no big deal, cautious on further moves
Adds detail
FRANKFURT, April 29 (Reuters) - The European Central Bank's first rate hike in over a decade is no big issue for the ECB and the question is rather how fast it should raise borrowing costs further after that, the bank's chief economist Philip Lane said on Friday.
Inflation in the euro zone hit a fresh record on Friday and investors are expecting the ECB to ditch its policy of negative interest rates and massive bond purchases, which was adopted eight years ago to revive sluggish price growth.
Lane seemed to confirm expectations of an imminent increase to the ECB's deposit rate, which investors expect in July, but he was cautious on further hikes, citing the war in Ukraine as a risk to the outlook.
"The story is not the issue about 'are we going to move away from minus 0.5 (%) for the deposit rate'," Lane said on Bloomberg TV.
"The big issue which we do have to still be data-dependent about is the scale and the timing of interest rate normalisation."
The ECB has never said what it meant by normalisation but policymakers who spoke to Reuters said that equated to a policy rate of between 1% and 1.25%.
Investors are pricing in nearly 90 basis points of ECB hikes by the end of this year.
Data earlier on Friday showed euro zone inflation inched up to a new record high of 7.5% in April, driven by a persistent surge in energy and food prices.
But even with those volatile items filtered out, inflation still rose to 3.9%, or nearly twice the ECB's 2% target, showing price pressures were rising in all corners of the economy.
"In the near-term, yes, inflation is very high and that does carry its own risk of momentum," Lane said.
"On the other hand the high energy prices are eating into disposable incomes, it's reducing consumption and the war has a scope - especially depending on how it goes - in terms of mapping into lower investment, lower consumption, confidence effects and extra pressure on energy."

June hogs yesterday traded at the lowest level since Feb. 4. The higher close might be seen as a technical development, according to The Hightower Report.
Weekly export sales showed new pork sales total of 31,500 million tons for 2022, up noticeably from the previous week and up 19% from the prior four-week average, said Matthew Strelow of Total Farm Marketing. Mexico, Japan, and Canada were the top buyers of U.S. pork last week. | https://www.agupdate.com/iowafarmertoday/mwo/livestock/lean_hogs/lean-hogs/article_15ee7504-c7bd-11ec-b96a-f73fd9c392b2.html | 2022-04-29T14:50:22Z | https://www.agupdate.com/iowafarmertoday/mwo/livestock/lean_hogs/lean-hogs/article_15ee7504-c7bd-11ec-b96a-f73fd9c392b2.html | false | null |
While paying down debt is often easier said than done, sometimes, even when we finally experience that sweet, sweet feeling of having a $0 credit card balance, it usually isn't too long before we start to see the balance balloon once again.
Below, Select breaks down three main reasons why staying debt free is so tough for so many people and what you might be able to do to help get things back on track.
1. You don't have an emergency fund
An emergency fund is a very important part of your finances and the money in that account should only be used for surprise expenses, for instance, if your car suddenly needs an unexpected repair or if you lose your phone and need to replace it ASAP. That way, you can avoid going deeper into debt and still cover unexpected bills.
When you don't have an emergency fund set up or enough cash on hand to cover surprise expenses, your first instinct may be to use a credit card to float the fee. Depending on how much it costs, doing this could leave you having to make small payments over several months to become debt free again.
Having an emergency fund of just $1,000 can help you feel better equipped to handle the unexpected without having to take on too much additional debt. While most experts say you should aim to save three to six months' worth of your necessary living expenses in an emergency fund, it's fine to start small and work your way up from there.
It can also help to use a high-yield savings account such as the Ally Online Savings Account or the Marcus by Goldman Sachs Online Savings Account, so you can earn more interest each month compared to traditional banks and grow your balance just a little bit faster.

2. Pricier items no longer fit into your current budget
It's no secret that the cost of living has been increasing lately due to inflation. After all, inflation in 2022 has had the biggest impact on all the essentials, including the cost of gas, buying a car, rent and groceries. Even if you've always deemed yourself to be pretty good at budgeting, if your monthly income just doesn't provide enough money to support these price increases, you may find yourself falling back onto a credit card so you can afford some of these big-ticket items.
From there, you might find yourself continuing to pay for groceries or gas with a credit card each month and before you know it, you will have racked up a sizable balance again. Even if you used a rewards credit card like the Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express — which gives you 6% cash back on up to $6,000 per year on purchases at U.S. supermarkets (then 1% thereafter), and 3% cash back at U.S. gas stations — the cash back is only impactful when you can pay off your balance in full each month and avoid paying additional interest charges.

3. You haven't addressed the underlying causes of your high spending habits
Changing our spending habits is often difficult since our subconscious beliefs and past experiences play such an important role in our relationships with money. According to Paco de Leon, author of "Finance for the People: Getting A Grip On Your Finances," not recognizing and dealing with these underlying beliefs can keep us trapped in a cycle of paying down debt only to incur it all over again.
For example, someone who gets stressed out and copes by shopping online may work hard to pay off their credit card debt completely, but the next time they use retail therapy to ease their stress, they'll just end up right back in credit card debt. In this case, paying off their balance won't do anything to address how they cope with stress, and the cycle of debt will continue.
De Leon recommends journaling or hiring a coach as a great way to start to uncover some of your beliefs and habits around the way you spend money and use debt. It may also help to use a budgeting app such as YNAB (You Need A Budget) or Mint to get a clearer picture of where your discretionary spending is highest and possibly pinpoint significant triggers that may have caused it.

Jim Ratcliffe launches late $5 billion bid to buy Chelsea
By ROB HARRIS
AP Global Soccer Writer
British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe has launched a late bid to buy Chelsea for 4.25 billion pounds ($5.3 billion). Three three offers featuring American investors were already being assessed as the sale process is nearing a conclusion. Chelsea was put up for sale in March after Russia owner Roman Abramovich was sanctioned by the British government over his ties to President Vladimir Putin following the invasion of Ukraine. Ratcliffe, the chairman of chemical giant INEOS, is a Chelsea fan who owns European teams Nice and Lausanne as well as a cycling team and Britain’s America’s Cup sailing team. | https://kion546.com/news/ap-national-news/2022/04/29/jim-ratcliffe-launches-late-5-billion-bid-to-buy-chelsea/ | 2022-04-29T14:57:18Z | https://kion546.com/news/ap-national-news/2022/04/29/jim-ratcliffe-launches-late-5-billion-bid-to-buy-chelsea/ | false | null |
16 states that want to electrify USPS fleet file lawsuits
(AP) - California and 15 other states that want the U.S. Postal Service to buy more electric delivery vehicles are suing to halt purchases of thousands of gas-powered trucks as the agency modernizes its mail delivery fleet.
Three separate lawsuits, filed by 16 states and environmental groups Thursday in New York and California, ask judges to order a more thorough environmental review before the Postal Service moves forward with the next-generation delivery vehicle program.
Plaintiffs contend that purchases of fossil fuel-powered delivery vehicles will cause environmental harm for decades to come.
“Louis DeJoy’s gas-guzzling fleet guarantees decades of pollution with every postcard and package,” said Scott Hochberg, an attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity, referring to the postmaster general.
One lawsuit was filed by the Center for Biological Diversity, Earthjustice, CleanAirNow KC and Sierra Club in San Francisco. Attorneys general from 16 states and the District of Columbia filed another suit in the same venue. Another was filed by the Natural Resources Defense Council and United Auto Workers in New York.
All of three of them target the environmental review underpinning of the Postal Service’s planned purchase of up to 165,000 next-generation delivery vehicles over the next decade.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta said it’s key to stop the process before it’s too late.
“Once this purchase goes through, we’ll be stuck with more than 100,000 new gas-guzzling vehicles on neighborhood streets, serving homes across our state and across the country, for the next 30 years. There won’t be a reset button,” he said.
The Postal Service defended its actions.
“The Postal Service conducted a robust and thorough review and fully complied with all of our obligations under (the National Environmental Policy Act),” spokesperson Kim Frum said Thursday in an email.
The Postal Service contract calls for 10% of the new vehicles to be electric but the Postal Service contends more electric vehicles can be purchased based on financial outlook and strategic considerations.
The percentage of battery-electric vehicles was doubled — to 20% — in the initial $2.98 billion order for 50,000 vehicles.
Environmental advocates contend the Postal Service’s environmental review was inadequate and flawed, and that the contract represented a missed opportunity to electrify the fleet and reduce emissions.
The review process “was so rickety and riddled with error that it failed to meet the basic standards of the National Environmental Policy Act,” said Adrian Martinez, senior attorney on Earthjustice’s Right to Zero campaign.
The Postal Service is in the process of replacing the ubiquitous delivery trucks that went into service between 1987 and 1994.
The new gasoline-powered vehicles would get 14.7 miles per gallon (23.7 kilometers per gallon) without air conditioning, compared to 8.4 mpg (13.5 kpg) for the older vehicles, the Postal Service said.
All told, the Postal Service’s fleet includes 190,000 local delivery vehicles. More than 141,000 of those are the old models that lack safety features like air bags, anti-lock brakes and backup cameras.
The new vehicles are taller to make it easier for postal carriers to grab packages and parcels that make up a greater share of volume. They also have improved ergonomics and climate control.
The states that sued are California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.
The Bay Area Air Quality Management District in California, District of Columbia and city of New York joined that lawsuit, as well.

The construction of the Khudafarin-Gubadli-Lachin highway continues at full speed, the State Agency of Azerbaijan Automobile Roads has reported.
The highway, which is part of the road infrastructure projects being implemented in Azerbaijan's Karabakh and East Zangazur economic regions, will play an important role in the social and economic development of the liberated regions and villages in Azerbaijan.
According to the agency, the highway will be 56,4 kilometers long, beginning at a section of the Hajigabul-Horadiz-Aghband-Zangazur highway and ending near the Khudaferin reservoir.
It was also noted that the construction of a new 14-km highway from Khanlig settlement to Gubadli city is also underway.
According to the statement, the total length of the two roads will be 70,4 km.
The Khudafarin-Gubadli-Lachin highway is being built in accordance with the first technical category and will have four traffic lanes.
The work on the construction of a roadbed on the 45-km section of the highway also continues. Asphalt concrete pavement has been laid on the 8-km section of the route.
Earthworks are being carried out, crossings, bridges and retaining walls are being built on the 14-km section of the road in direction of Khanlig.
Furthermore, bridges are being constructed at the 10th, 22nd, 32nd, and 43rd kilometers of the main road, the 4th kilometer of the access road, and the 1st kilometer of the highway to Gubadli city.
A total of 12 underground passages and a 1,040-meter supporting wall have already been built on the route.
This road will connect more than 30 settlements, including Gubadli and Lachin cities, passing through the territories of Zangilan, Gubadli and Lachin regions.
Gubadly-Eyvazli highway
In a separate statement, the Agency said that the Gubadly-Eyvazli highway will play an important role in the socio-economic development of Azerbaijan’s liberated regions and villages from Armenian occupation.
According to the information, the Gubadly-Eyvazli highway with a length of 28.5 kilometers is being built in accordance with the fourth technical category and will have two traffic lanes. Currently, large-scale construction work is underway along the road.
"In accordance with the project, unsuitable soil and vegetation layer are being removed on a 26-kilometer section of the road to widen the roadway,” the statement noted.
The construction of the roadway has been completed on the section of the route from 23rd to 25th kilometer and work is underway to build roadway on the section from 27th to 28th kilometer.
Necessary amount of equipment and personnel was attracted to the construction site for speedy and high-quality performance of work.
Pile installation and concreting work undergoing on the four-span bridge (122.4 meters long), built on the 2.5th kilometer of the road. Preparations are underway for the installation of piles where a two-span bridge 66 meters long will be built, on 21st kilometer of the road.
It should be noted that the Gubadly-Eyvazli highway, the construction of which is scheduled to be completed this year, stretches through Azerbaijan’s Mahmudlu, Khidirli, Malikahmadli, Gundanli, Davudlu, Eyvazli villages liberated from the Armenian occupation, including Gubadly town.
The rapid construction of road, energy, and social infrastructure in Karabakh and East Zangazur is a global demonstration of Azerbaijan's strength and economic potential.
Priorities for reconstruction include building new transportation and communication lines, as well as restoring historically existing roads. Ten major highways totaling 665.4 kilometers in length are part of the region's road construction project.
One of the major projects completed in the region is the 101-km Victory Road, which leads to Shusha and is already in use. Over 1,400 km of roads are currently under construction in the liberated lands as part of 15 different projects. The Ahmadbayli-Fuzul-Shusha, Toghanali-Kalbajar-Istisu, Kalbajar-Lachin, Horadiz-Jabrayil-Zangilan-Aghband, Khudafarin-Gubadli-Lachin, Gubadli-Eyvazli, Shukurbayli-Jabrayil-Hadrut, and Fuzuli highways are great examples for these projects.
The construction of the Barda-Aghdam highway is also one of the road infrastructure projects being implemented in the Karabakh and East Zangazur economic regions.
One of the most important issues in this direction is the rail and road connection between Nakhchivan and Azerbaijan's western regions, as well as the launch of the Zangazur corridor.
The establishment of the Zangazur corridor will help reinvigorate the South Caucasus road network. The corridor will also enable the construction of a railway line between Azerbaijan and Iran, as well as access to Iranian railways. At the same time, the Zangazur corridor will feature a motorway system in addition to trains. So, the creation of this corridor will also allow the opening of a road connection.
The Zangazur corridor and other transit transport corridors provided by Azerbaijan will reshape the world's transportation map. In other words, the new transport infrastructure will gain international status and become a route that Asian and Pacific countries can use.
The corridor will connect Azerbaijan's main territory with the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, as well as Turkey, and will provide new prospects for the Turkic world as a whole. The corridor is of fundamental importance in restoring peace, security and cooperation in the South Caucasus. | http://www.today.az/news/business/219414.html | 2022-04-29T14:59:18Z | http://www.today.az/news/business/219414.html | true | 2 |

Review: Broadway’s ‘Funny Girl’ a Beanie Feldstein triumph
NEW YORK (AP) — When Broadway’s revival of “Funny Girl” begins, star Beanie Feldstein sits in a Broadway dressing room, getting ready to go on. She wonders nervously to her assistant: “You ever feel like there’s someone watching from the shadows?”
The line takes an extra jolt of meaning because Feldstein is stepping into hallowed ground. She’s playing Fanny Brice, a role so associated with Barbra Streisand in the ’60s that no Broadway revival has been attempted until now — with a Sunday opening at the August Wilson Theatre that even coincides with Streisand’s 80th birthday.
And yet Feldstein stays strong, letting the pressure drop like one of her fabulous coats slipping off her back onto the floor. Almost three hours after that scene, she’s completely won the audience over. No shadows are holding her down.
Feldstein’s Brice is earthy, saucy, physical — a lovable underdog. She may not posses Bab’s vocal prowess, but she radiates the hunger, wry humor and fragility to be an unlikely heroine for a new generation. Her opening line is a classic and she owns it: “Hello, gorgeous,” she says to the mirror.
Set in New York City before and following World War I, “Funny Girl” is a semi-biographical musical account of the life of stage star Brice and her loving but ultimately toxic relationship with gambler-businessman Nicky Arnstein.
If any show was tonally split into two, this is it. Act One is a comedy as it charts Brice’s rise from awkward Brooklyn-born Jewish hoofer to comic star of the Ziegfeld Follies. Act Two is a downer, the fall of two lovers who finally understand that they are incompatible.
The creative team led by assured director Michael Mayer have their own challenges — 27 scene changes, more than a dozen songs and a cast of over 30. Costumes by Susan Hilferty are sumptuous and David Zinn’s set uses a revolving turntable around a giant brick cone at the center of the stage that opens to be various interiors — living rooms and train stations, among them.
Though the Jule Styne-Bob Merrill song list has been scrambled over time, two of the most famous are here, “People” and “Don’t Rain on My Parade,” and Feldstein makes the former small and sadly longing, while the latter is a boisterous, almost bullying threat. Both appear toward the end of Act One and the second half looses steam and treads water for a while.
Ramin Karimloo plays Arnstein stilted at first, struggling with a role both slimy and charismatic, but ends strongly, always shining when he’s singing. His Arnstein remains a bit of a cipher, often drenched in a kind of noir that’s not in keeping with the rest of the show.
“Glee” star Jane Lynch as Brice’s mom is at her cutting, catty best, a master of comic timing, while Jared Grimes as a pal of Brice nearly tap-dances away with the show, a bright spark of talent and energy whenever he’s on stage.
But the show rests and falls on Feldstein, who must posses as Brice both a grand confidence — “I’m the greatest star” — and an insecurity (“You mean it?”). Brice is a beacon for all the misfits, a stand-in for the unconventional — “a bagel on a plate full of onion rolls” — and Feldstein nails it. Plus, she can deliver a “fakachta” with authenticity.
Highlights include a hysterically seductive and hungry “You Are Woman, I Am Man;” a crowded celebration of married life in “Sadie, Sadie;” the touching duet “Who Taught Her Everything She Knows”; and the showstopper-in-the-show “Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat” with 12 dancers mimicking soldiers. Look for a moment when Karimloo shuffles playing cards theatrically and Lynch does the same not long after.
The original book by Isobel Lennart has been tweaked by Harvey Fierstein, who also supplies the preshow warning about silencing our phones. There is a winking, fourth-wall-smashing flavor to the show, with Feldstein starting Act Two by jumping up through the orchestra pit and Grimes acknowledging and encouraging cheers during his Act One dance break. Confetti cannons and fake dollar bills are also tossed into the audience, perhaps too cloying a step.
It turns out you don’t need that. All you need is Beanie Feldstein. Hello, gorgeous, indeed.

The White House communications director confirmed Friday that she has tested positive for COVID-19.
Kate Bedingfield tweeted that she received the positive test result on Friday morning.
This morning, I tested positive for COVID-19. I last saw the President Wednesday in a socially-distanced meeting while wearing an N-95 mask, and he is not considered a close contact as defined by the CDC.
— Kate Bedingfield (@WHCommsDir) April 29, 2022
She last met with President Joe Biden on Wednesday. The communications director said they were in a socially distanced environment while wearing N-95 masks.
Bedingfield said Biden is not considered a “close contact,” as defined by the CDC.
The health agency defines a close contact as “anyone who was less than 6 feet away from you for a combined total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period.”
Bedingfield said on Twitter that she is only experiencing mild symptoms and is vaccinated and boosted.
She will continue to work from home for the next five days and will need a negative COVID-19 test before she returns to the White House in person.
Bedingfield’s diagnosis comes two days after Vice President Kamala Harris tested positive for the virus.
Harris, who is also vaccinated and boosted, is still quarantined.
According to the White House, the vice president was not in close contact with Biden before testing positive. | https://www.newschannel5.com/news/national/coronavirus/white-house-communications-director-tests-positive-for-covid-19 | 2022-04-29T15:08:02Z | https://www.newschannel5.com/news/national/coronavirus/white-house-communications-director-tests-positive-for-covid-19 | true | 11 |

All 17 pediatric hospitals across Canada are looking out for an “unusual” childhood liver disease, but the number of possible cases under review remains in the single digits, British Columbia’s provincial health officer said Thursday.
Dr. Bonnie Henry told reporters none of the possible cases of severe acute hepatitis, or liver inflammation, are in B.C., and it isn’t her place to identify where they are or exactly how many.
Health officials are developing common case report forms and testing algorithms to be used across the country, Henry said.
“We’ll be watching this very carefully,” Henry said. “As we start looking more closely for things, there’s clearly a probability that we will identify some cases.”
Nearly 200 cases of sudden liver disease have been reported in children in at least a dozen countries and at least one person has died, prompting health authorities to search for a cause.
British health officials have said they are investigating what’s behind a spike there, noting there is increasing evidence the cases could be linked to a common virus.
A leading suspect is adenovirus, which was detected in 75 per cent of the confirmed cases tested, the Health Security Agency in the United Kingdom said in statement Monday.
U.S. authorities said this month that they were investigating a cluster of otherwise unexplained hepatitis cases diagnosed in nine Alabama children who also tested positive for adenovirus.
Two other theories suggest the disease is caused by a toxin or viral co-infections with COVID-19, which has been linked with inflammation in other parts of the body, Henry said.
On Wednesday, the Public Health Agency of Canada said it was looking into reports of liver inflammation among young children in Canada and investigating any links with the United Kingdom and the United States.
Henry said health officials are reviewing data on cases around the globe. A special investigation team is working on case definitions based on what health authorities are seeing in the U.K. and the United States, in particular, she added.
The first cases likely appeared in October, she said, and about 10 per cent of children have required liver transplants, Henry said.
“These children are getting very sick with gastrointestinal sickness, so things like tummy pain, diarrhea, vomiting, fevers, and then they progress to develop jaundice or yellowing of the skin and eyes very quickly,” she said.
The usual viruses that cause infectious liver inflammation — hepatitis A to E — were not detected in more than 100 cases under investigation in the United Kingdom.
The illness is not linked to COVID-19 vaccinations, Henry added, given that the majority of sick kids are under age 6 and therefore ineligible for vaccines.

India head coach Rahul Dravid returned to the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru on Friday as he interacted with cricketers from the North East and Plate Group. Dravid joined hands with current NCA head coach VVS Laxman as the legendary cricketers shared their insights with the young cricketers.
Notably, it was one of the first visits of Rahul Dravid to the NCA after quitting the role at the academy in Bengaluru after which he took over Ravi Shastri as the head coach of the senior national men's cricket team.
Dravid, who worked extensively on the up and coming cricketers as India U-19 coach and then as the NCA chief, spent about 45 minutes with the players who are honing their skills in the camp organised under the tutelage of world-class coaches including Ashes-winning bowling coach Troy Cooley, according to the Press Trust of India.
Noably, the NCA organised the camp for players from the North East and Plate Group from April 18 to May 12.
Rahul Dravid, who resides in Bengaluru, found time to visit the NCA as he is not on national duty due to Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022.
NCA chief VVS Laxman took to social media to thank his good friend RahuL Dravid for sparing time and doing the joint session with him in Bengaluru.
“Many thanks to my good friend & Team India head coach Rahul Dravid for having taken the time to speak to players from the North East & Plate group attending the NCA camp in Bengaluru. I am sure the boys would have welcomed the chance to take a peek into Rahul’s mind,” Laxman said on social media.

Rahul Dravid, who took over as India's head last year, has had a good start, winning all home series -- against New Zealand, West Indies, and Sr Lanka. However, India lost to South Africa in a 3-Test series following which they were blanked in the ODI series in the Rainbow Nation.
Dravid will be back with the Indian team when they take on South Africa in a 5-match T20I series in June. | https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/cricket/story/rahul-dravid-vvs-laxman-nca-camp-north-east-plate-group-players-1943608-2022-04-29 | 2022-04-29T15:12:09Z | https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/cricket/story/rahul-dravid-vvs-laxman-nca-camp-north-east-plate-group-players-1943608-2022-04-29 | false | 1 |

BERLIN (AP) — The annual Oktoberfest festival is on again for this fall, the city of Munich said Friday, following a two-year pause due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Dieter Reiter, the mayor of the Bavarian capital, said the popular beer festival will be held without restrictions from Sept. 17 to Oct. 3 – Germany’s national day.
The Oktoberfest, first held in 1810 in honor of the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria to Princess Therese, has been canceled dozens of times during its more than 200-year history due to wars and pandemics.
The announcement was welcomed by the Bavarian hotel and restaurant association. | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/entertainment-news/cheers-munich-to-stage-1st-oktoberfest-after-2-year-hiatus/ | 2022-04-29T15:15:46Z | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/entertainment-news/cheers-munich-to-stage-1st-oktoberfest-after-2-year-hiatus/ | true | null |
Introduction: The Vikings moved back 20 spots in the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday, adding additional picks in the process. But was it really worth it to drop from No. 12 to No. 32, where they selected Georgia safety Lewis Cine? Time will tell, but at first blush it seems like the Vikings didn't get enough value. Fans largely felt the same way, though you'll hear enthusiasm from GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.
12:00: Star Tribune Timberwolves beat writer Chris Hine joins host Michael Rand to help set up the critical Game 6 of the playoffs Friday at Target Center. Can Minnesota fend off elimination and send the series back to Memphis for a deciding Game 7? If they are going to do it, they will need to rebound and execute better.
25:00: The Wild moved closer to gaining home ice in the first round of the playoffs with a 3-2 overtime win over Calgary. All Minnesota needs tonight is one point — or a regulation St. Louis loss — to clinch that edge. And the Twins won their seventh straight game, something that would be a major headline if not for other major stories

Septentrio Teams with MicroPilot, Bringing Top-Performance GNSS Positioning to UAVs
April 28, 2022
Press Release
Septentrio, a leader in high-precision GNSS* positioning solutions, announced a collaboration with MicroPilot, a world leader in professional UAV autopilots.
Septentrio receivers, including the small-form-factor mosaic modules, as well as the OEM board AsteRx-m3 will support seamless integration of positioning and orientation into MicroPilot’s autopilot ecosystem. Septentrio GPS receivers are known for resilience to radio interference such as jamming and spoofing**, and add value to UAV applications by bringing security and robustness to high-accuracy RTK positioning.
“Adopting new and resilient technology in UAVs is vital, and we want to ensure a smooth integration process into professional drone systems,” commented Gustavo Lopez, Senior Market Access Manager at Septentrio. “We are very excited about the strong collaboration between Septentrio and MicroPilot, which now provides new alternatives to drone companies looking for safe and reliable flight operations.”
In addition to developing autopilots, MicroPilot provides supporting software and services that enable customers to use development time more efficiently, reducing time-to-market. "Working closely with Septentrio gives MicroPilot the ability to better leverage resilient and robust GNSS technologies strengthening our offering to the professional UAV market for safe and reliable flight control," commented Howard Loewen, President of MicroPilot.
Self-interference or self-jamming is a common occurrence in UAVs, where devices such as cameras, servos or antennas, which emit electromagnetic radiation, are located close to the GPS receiver. Incorporating GNSS technology, which is resilient to jamming and spoofing, in combination with reliable professional-level autopilots is key to safe and secure flight navigation. For more information about Septentrio UAV products contact the Septentrio team.
* Global Navigation Satellite System including the American GPS, European Galileo, Russian GLONASS, Chinese BeiDou, Japan’s QZSS and India’s NavIC. These satellite constellations broadcast positioning information to receivers which use it to calculate their absolute position.
** Spoofing is a malicious form of radio interference (jamming) where faulty coordinates are sent into the receiver to defer the target from its predefined track.

NEW YORK (AP) — It took eight long years for Sarah Soleman to get a murky part of Britain’s post-World War II history from the pages of a book to our TV screens.
She had been impressed by Jo Bloom’s 2014 novel “Ridley Road” about a Jewish-led underground anti-fascist resistance movement in London in the 1960s. But making it into a series was hard-going at first.
“It got rejected everywhere. No one wanted to make it. It felt very niche,” she explained. Then two things happened: Brexit in England and Donald Trump in the United States. Suddenly, nativist lurches in democracies weren't so niche.
“I just had to be relentless in pushing it. And I’m glad I did, because, actually, it reveals a lot about the country when it came out,” said the English actor, writer and activist.
“Ridley Road,” a four-part series that makes its U.S. debut May 1 on PBS' “Masterpiece,” takes viewers to a part of British history that they may not have known. In the early '60s, members of the fascist National Socialist Movement held rallies in London, waving swastikas and demanding leaders “free Britain from Jewish control.”

“We like to think we’re on the right side of history," said Soleman, who grew up in London with an Iranian father and Northern Irish mother. "We like to think of history as good guys and bad guys. And we were the good guys and Hitler was a bad guy and he died in the bunker and that was the end of it. And it’s not true.”
“Ridley Road” — in the '60s, a multicultural thoroughfare in northeast London — centers on an unconventional heroine, a young Jewish hairdresser who goes undercover into the neo-Nazi movement. While her story may be fictional, the history of fascists fighting anti-fascists on the streets of London is not.
“I think what this series does is just remind us that we are constantly battling against fascism, Nazism and neo-Nazism. I think the show is very relevant because it reminds us that this is ongoing," said Susanne Simpson, “Masterpiece” executive producer.
"This is a slice of history that certainly I didn’t know had taken place in Britain, and I don’t think many people had known. But it’s true today. We see it happening in the U.S. and we see it happening worldwide. And what question I think Sarah was asking with the show was, ‘What are we going to do about it?’”
While set during what is considered the fun, liberating Swinging Sixties, the series explores how fascism can take hold. In the case of England, the rise of large corporations disturbing main street's mom-and-pop stores, an influx of foreign workers to rebuild post-war Britain and the bulldozing of homes to make skyscrapers all played a part. Some vulnerable people became susceptible to the slogan “Take Our Country Back.”
“No one sets out to be a villain of history. Everyone is setting out thinking they’re doing the best thing they can in the moment they’re in. So it tries to humanize why white working class people are susceptible and vulnerable to far-right views,” Soleman said.
Anti-fascists — working without the support of the government — used their muscle and espionage techniques such as wire-tapping and infiltration to disrupt the National Socialist Movement, which was behind synagogue arsons. Often the anti-fascists were Jewish ex-servicemen who had fought the Nazis abroad.
“They’d been at war and they’d come home only to find Nazis on their doorstep. So in their eyes, it was muscle against muscle, an eye for an eye. There was no other option,” said Soleman. “It’s a remarkable story of hope and sacrifice.”
The chapter in British history might have seemed very dusty and foreign to Americans until 2017 when hundreds of white nationalists descended on Charlottesville, Virginia, screaming “Jews will not replace us!” All of a sudden, “Take Our Country Back” wasn't too far away from other nativist slogans like “Make America Great Again.”
The series underscores that pluralistic democracies need to be actively protected and that freedom is a privilege that shouldn't be passively given away. As one Jewish leader says: “An anti-fascist fights. An anti-fascist does.” Still, Soleman says there are many ways to do that.
“I’m very cautious of telling people they need to do more because people are at maximum capacity — they’re working longer hours, not earning enough,” she said. “It’s not about shaming people into doing more. It’s saying a good antidote to being overwhelmed and a good antidote to despair is action.”
Soleman, who studied politics at Cambridge University and follows resistance movements around the globe, said even small acts — demonstrating, signing petitions, writing letters — can help an individual feel useful.
“When you stand up, when you see something happening in a public space, you actually become revitalized, you’ll feel less depressed, you’ll feel less overwhelmed,” she said.

- Teladoc (TDOC) stock is going the wrong way, for good reason this time
- In spite of the hate, eventually it will make sense to the masses once more
- The murkier the opportunity, the bigger the potential reward
The pandemic and the lock downs that resulted from it changed things forever. Suddenly old concepts emerged as new sustainable trends. One of those is the concept of telehealth where Teladoc (NYSE:TDOC) stock lives. Today I will make the pro-bullish argument and feel guilty about it. If its opportunity is in a popular segment, I should have strong confidence in my point. I don’t, but I do see an opportunity out of extreme fear and confusion.
The setup is for the right investor frame of mind. Trading TDOC after such a violent move must only be as a speculative bet. No logic can justify going all in with force at this stage and without further proof. The value has a way of emerging late, then the hordes of investors follow. The early birds get the bigger chunk of the worm. But getting too early will results in premature pain.
The market opportunity for the sector makes sense. Much like the telecommuting, the idea of telehealth has been around, but not to a serious degree. The pandemic legitimized the need for it and on a wide scope. In 2020 and under lock down, we desperately needed Teladoc services. Demand for their services exploded higher and so did the stock. The company burst onto the scene, and they could hardly keep up with demand. Suddenly we all needed to speak to medical professionals and asap.
The Problem Started with a Mega Rally
While the user metrics were impressive, the bids on TDOC stock were even more. The rally from early 2020 was enormous, and by the summer it had already gained more than 205%. The bulls finally ran out of steam, almost exactly a year after the pandemic breakout started. Critics were many and they argued that the rally was too impressive. And in hindsight they were right, as the fall from grace happened at neck-break speeds.
From those highs, Teladoc has lost more than 90% of its value this week. Just yesterday, it crashed 40% in a negative reaction to its latest earnings report. Management delivered convincingly bad news, which spooked the two fans that TDOC still has. But this is where it gets interesting, because the stock is now back to old pivotal levels. Current prices have been in contention since the early stages of its IPO. Investors battled over them for two years until the established them as footing.
In 2018, the real rally started, and by the time the pandemic hit Teladoc was up +125%. Clearly this is a fast moving stock that requires intestinal fortitude from its investors. The way to handle such volatility is to do a deep dive into homework. Studying the business opportunity would empower investors to have conviction.
However, in the current conditions we must remain humble on that front. Going all in is asking for trouble because of extrinsic factors. Stocks do not trade in a vacuum, and they ride market momentum. Currently Wall Street is reeling from a handful of very serious risks. The two main ones come from the war in the Ukraine, and the threat of a violent Federal Reserve. Either of those two have the capacity to cause a stock market crash. Regardless of how good the opportunity that exists in Teladoc, there are outside risks looming.
TDOC Stock Should Have Support Soon
Charts by TradingView
Technically when a stock falls back into a significant zone of contention like this it finds footing. But since the battles happened more than four years ago, they won’t be sharp lines of support. Think of them as mattresses providing a soft landing after a hard fall. Using options can mitigate some of the risk of catching a falling knife this big.
The business metrics are not horrific on paper. As long as they can operate without bleeding cash, they should continue to execute on plans. Last year, they generated $200 million in cash from operations. If this repeats, then they could finish the years strong. Stocks more more on relative aspect of performance to expectations. This week, investors lowered their bar for TDOC to the ground.
Those who are still holding shares are less likely to shake out now. The time to panic has passed therefore arguably TDOC stock is in stronger hands. Near $22 it is not likely to be a major financial catastrophe to own some. The GDP report this week printed a -1.4% versus the expectations of the opposite growth. This comes ahead of next week’s Fed decision on interest rates. Maybe the weakness would soften their rhetoric a bit.

Principals of Federal Unity Colleges in the South-west Zone recently organised a three-day capacity-building workshop for pastoral caregivers of colleges in the zone.
The workshop, with the theme ‘Effective Approaches to Institutional Management amidst Insecurity and Coronavirus (COVID-19)’, held at Queen’s College, Lagos.
In her remarks, the Zonal Chairman, and Principal of the host college, Dr. Tokunbo Yakubu-Oyinloye, said last year’s training focused on academics, targeted at improving students’ performance in six subjects.
She emphasised the importance of training and retraining, which she said are key in ensuring that unity schools remain models and that the staff have what it takes to move the colleges higher in the 21st century.
“We believe in the total development of the child. While promoting academics we believe that we also need to provide a conducive, safe and warm environment for our students to learn and grow in,” she stated.
She said the caregivers are non-teaching staff, comprising those in the security, the clinic, catering, the guidance and counselling units, as well as coordinators of academic activities and year heads.
According to her, challenges of insecurity, bullying and fagging, which can sometimes have dire consequences; COVID-19 and other health issues, such as youth depression, sometimes lead to suicide. It could also lead to indiscipline, cultism and other social vices among youths, she said.
The chairman noted that institutions also had the challenge of providing adequate feeding, health care, guidance, counselling, secure hostel and classroom environment and basic amenities.
“We work round the clock to see how we can produce well-adjusted and developed youths from our schools. The environment should be safe not just physically but also psychologically, emotionally and mentally for the child.
“The officers we have gathered here today, the Senior Boarding House master/mistress (SBHM), vice principal/officer in charge of year heads, the nurse, the caterer, the counsellor and the officer in charge of security all have a role to play in providing this safe environment,” Yakubu-Oyinloye stated.
According to her, the federal government has provided the schools with tools and resources to do their jobs. She thanked the government for the trust reposed in them in posting them to our various schools as principals and other staff.
She noted that the Federal Ministry of Education frowned at bullying, fagging and violence.
The guest speaker, Dr. Sunday Adegbesan, the Head of the Training and Research Department, National Institute for Educational Planning and Administration (NIEPA), called on schools to set up safety and security committees amid worsening insecurity.
He said to reduce the negative effects of insecurity and COVID-19, school managers should be equipped with strategies to ensure that the school premises and the surrounding environment are free from vices such as weapons, drugs, and alcohol.
Adegbesan noted that the committees must comprise representatives of teachers, students, the Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs), community members and others.
Giving a breakdown of guidelines of emergency plans to create a safety, security and violence-free school environment at the school level, he added that the committees would also take responsibility for the safety agenda at the community and school levels.
He urged schools also to appoint school safety focal point teachers, school safety and security prefects, to anchor the operation of safety-related actions at the school levels as part of their routine.
“Each school should also provide the school safety focal point teacher with the necessary training to put the safety and security policies and guidelines into effect,” stated Adegbesan.
According to him, some security threats include terrorism, kidnapping, banditry, stealing and damaging school properties, encroachment of school land and escalated communal clashes.
He said the head of school and staff should take all necessary steps to ensure that a clean, safe and hygienic environment is provided to learners at all times.
A participant, Mr. Andrew Agada, the Principal of King’s College, Lagos, said the workshop positively impacted the schools’ general administration.
“We expect those trained during these two full days, to go back to their various schools and share the ideas and concepts learnt here with others in their units and departments.
Mr Amos Akinpelu, Principal, Federal Government College, Odogbolu, Ogun State said the school system has the mandate to impart knowledge and development skills in the children, but there are those behind the scene that provide support services to make it functional.
These persons he said are as critical as the teachers, in moulding the minds of the children. | https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/04/27/south-west-unity-colleges-train-caregivers-in-lagos/ | 2022-04-29T15:29:03Z | https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/04/27/south-west-unity-colleges-train-caregivers-in-lagos/ | false | 2 |

One lucky aerospace club member at Greater Latrobe Senior High School (GLSHS) is getting the chance to kickstart his dream career earlier than most.
Mark Bellissimo, a senior student, has not only been hired as the first Greater Latrobe School District (GLSD) intern with the Westmoreland County Airport Authority, but will also be receiving a scholarship to pursue his education in aviation after he graduates high school. Bellissimo, who has been interested in the aviation field for quite some time, is grateful for the opportunity that he will be given.
“I am so grateful for the opportunity the airport authority is affording me by on-boarding me as their first GLSD intern and I am so honored with their scholarship award,” Bellissimo said.
For the high school senior, the aviation field and Arnold Palmer Regional Airport have much more meaning to him other than just a place to jumpstart his young career.
“I was born in Latrobe and Arnold Palmer Regional Airport has been an important part of our community since I can remember,” Bellissimo said. “My grandparents’ home is in the flightpath as the jets descend to the landing strip. My earliest memories were watching these big planes fly right overhead — so close I could see the landing gear.”
Bellissimo will work for the airport authority as an intern this summer doing several different customer service related roles at the airport. He believes working for the airport authority is a chance to learn what it means to work as part of a team that gets planes up in the air, noting that it is approached from the “it takes a village” mentality. While Bellissimo is excited for all the roles that he will serve during his internship, he could not help but express true passion for being able to work “under the wings” on the ramp.
While the internship is fantastic, what might be equally as valuable for Bellissimo is the scholarship.
First off, the airport authority has agreed to award Bellissimo with $1,000 toward his education at the Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics (PIA). Likewise, the institute agreed to match that number and will supply its own $1,000 for the GLSHS senior. Finally, airport authority vice chairman Donald Rossi will be contributing $500. With this $2,500 in scholarship money, it will be a great way to financially support Bellissimo as he begins his education.
“This scholarship inspires me because it will help launch me in my career. It’s always encouraging when the community you love supports you in your pursuit of education,” Bellissimo said. “I believe education is everything and opens all doors. PIA has a fantastic program and I can’t wait to enroll.”
Gabe Monzo, airport authority executive director, is also extremely excited to have a young student interested in the field, something that he believes is absolutely paramount.
“It’s going to be imperative that we get people interested in aviation,” he said. “It’s going to be a growing industry in the next 10 years. It’s hard to find employees to work.”
Monzo noted that while Bellissimo will be the first to receive a scholarship and internship like this, he will certainly not be the last. It is Monzo’s hope that they continue to offer this opportunity in the years to come.
Monzo has been with the airport authority now for 39 years, and still believes in the value of working in the field of aviation and aeronautics.
“It’s an exciting field to get into and it’s a clean job,” he said. “It’s going to be very beneficial for anyone who enters into this field… there’s no place to go but up.” | https://www.latrobebulletinnews.com/news/local/latrobe-seniors-future-lifts-off-with-airport-internship-scholarship/article_b62b5e33-6693-5f63-bca1-564908f9cce0.html | 2022-04-29T15:31:18Z | https://www.latrobebulletinnews.com/news/local/latrobe-seniors-future-lifts-off-with-airport-internship-scholarship/article_b62b5e33-6693-5f63-bca1-564908f9cce0.html | false | 1 |

Iconic Glassboat restaurant for sale after 36 years in Bristol Harbour
Bristol's Glassboat Restaurant is up for sale after 36 years moored in Welsh Back in the harbour.
The Glassboat was built in 1986 by Arne Ringer, who also owns the Lido and Three Brothers burger restaurant on Welsh Bank.
The boat is 120ft long and 20ft wide and was originally built as a 'dumb barge'.
Mr Ringer's original plan was to create a floating botanical garden on the former barge, having moved to the UK from Sweden.
He and his business partner Magnus Macdonald were forced to change their plans and open a floating cafe after Bristol planners turned down the botanical boat idea.
The Glassboat became the city's premier fine dining restaurant from the late 1980s and through the 2000s.
Arne Ringer said: "What great times we had onboard the Glassboat since building it in 1985. We have fed everybody, from hungry Bristolians to royalty."
He added "It's now time to put the dancing shoes on the shelf and spend time teaching grandchildren to ride a bike. Thank you to all guests, friends and loyal staff for all the good times we've had."
The sale price is believed to be around £750,000 which included boat itself, all the assets of the company including the fixtures and the mooring licence which is normally £11,200. | https://www.itv.com/news/westcountry/2022-04-29/bristols-glassboat-restaurant-up-for-sale-after-36-years | 2022-04-29T15:33:15Z | https://www.itv.com/news/westcountry/2022-04-29/bristols-glassboat-restaurant-up-for-sale-after-36-years | false | 1 |
CHICAGO – Bringg, the leading delivery and fulfillment cloud platform provider, today announced that with its BringgGreen Sustainability Tech Practice, they have provided retailers over the past year with the best practices and capabilities to prioritize, measure and report on sustainable last mile deliveries as part of their net-zero journeys.
Today, 49% of retailers struggle to accurately measure carbon emissions. To improve accountability and drive transparent reporting and communication, Bringg’s delivery orchestration platform and new sustainability dashboard enables retailers to measure and accurately report the impact of their green delivery operations. This contributes towards their overall carbon emission reduction targets and sustainability goals.
Bringg’s delivery hub partners with organizations that are setting new standards in sustainability.
“Last May, Co-op announced a new ten-point climate plan which set out a blueprint for the retailer to achieve net zero for its direct and indirect carbon emissions by 2040. As part of its ambitious climate commitments it has plans for all its online home deliveries to be emission free by 2025,” said Chris Conway, Ecommerce Director of Co-op.
Bringg’s unified platform’s reporting capabilities make it easy for any retail enterprise to gain the operational control to define the prioritization of deliveries to be with all green or eco-friendly fleets. The platform offers automation in real time dispatching of deliveries to drive green deliveries and reduce the carbon emission footprint. Retailers can now select, manage, and continuously evaluate their own green fleets and eco-friendly third-party delivery providers. This includes the ability to:
- Offer green delivery options at checkout, automatically assign orders to green fleets, and communicate the carbon emissions saved per delivery to the end customer.
- Reduce mileage with smart route optimization and increase efficiency via batch orders.
- Easily connect with green third-party delivery providers, ensure you’re contracted with the greenest providers by monitoring the green vehicle ratio of each provider.
“It’s been a massive Bringg priority to assist companies on their journey of becoming truly sustainable, affordable, and customer-centric retailers’,” said Daniela Perlmutter, SVP Marketing and Head of the BringgGreen Sustainability Tech Practice. “We believe it takes a connected ecosystem with technology as the enabler for retailers and logistics providers to make an impactful change in the last mile fulfillment and delivery. Their success will play a pivotal role as an example of what can be achieved when sustainability initiatives are met with the appropriate customer experiences. I look forward to the day where sustainable deliveries become the standard deliveries in the industry.”
Bringg’s sustainability dashboard can be customized to track and measure specific green delivery KPIs relevant to retailers’ businesses. By measuring the environmental impact in a transparent, easy-to-use way, retailers can drive accountability, clear communication, and support the broader sustainability investments of their own business. BringgGreen aims to increase the number of green orders and distance traveled with zero-emission using green fleets.

In its Q2,2022 earnings release,
Apple has reported a growth of 5% in
iPhone revenue. The company has reported that the iPhone revenue went up from $47.88 billion in the same quarter a year ago to $50.57 billion.
Apple CEO Tim Cook, in an interview with CNBC, mentioned that they have noticed a significant surge in the upgrades during this quarter, as well as they, have also witnessed growth in the number of people
switching to iPhone from
Android.
In relation to that, Apple has an app called Move to
iOS, a data transfer app that allows Android users to seamlessly switch from
Android to iPhone. The app also allows users to download similar or same apps that are installed on the Android device.
However, if you are looking to give up your Android smartphone for an iPhone, there are certain things that you need to keep in mind.
Data transfer
One major concern while switching from any smartphone is data that is already stored in the older device. This includes contacts, media files, documents and app data. Thankfully, Apple allows users to move almost all the data including email accounts, app data and multimedia files from Android to iPhone.
Most of the data while switching from Android to iPhone will be moved seamlessly.
WhatsApp backup is an issue
It is important to know that currently there’s no way of moving WhatsApp chat backup from Android to iPhone. So, switching from Android to iPhone will result in the loss of all the previous WhatsApp chat backup from Android
devices.
Google apps and services
Google is everywhere and we can’t imagine our lives without Google apps and services. iOS has all the Google apps and services available including Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Calendar, Photos, etc.
The native apps are different
This one is obvious, Android smartphones come with pre-installed Google apps or OEM developed apps like Phone, Calendar and Chrome. On iPhone, each one of them will be replaced by Apple apps like Mail, Apple Calendar and Safari.
So, you might take a while to get hang of the Apple apps. However, as already mentioned, iPhone supports almost every Google app, so you can download Chrome, Google Calendar, etc on iPhone as well.
Different accessories
This one is big and expensive at the same time. Apple devices are a part of the ecosystem and the iPhone is most compatible with Apple accessories. For instance, the AirPods, Apple Watch or AirTags are among the best-known accessories for Apple. All these devices come with a dedicated chip that allows them to pair quickly with iPhone or other Apple devices, the same can’t be done with accessories manufactured by other OEMs.
User interface
Apple iOS comes with its own user interface. Although it is pretty simple and easy to use. But for someone who’s switching to an iPhone for the first time, it can be a little complicated.
How to switch from Android to iPhone
Switching from Android to iPhone is as simple as switching from Android to Android. All you need to do is create an Apple account and start the
setup process on the iPhone. During the setup process, Apple asks users whether they want to transfer data from their previous device and the option includes Android. Just follow the instructions to transfer data from Android to iPhone and continue with the setup process. | https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/switching-from-android-to-iphone-here-are-a-few-things-to-keep-in-mind/91181325 | 2022-04-29T15:38:38Z | https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/switching-from-android-to-iphone-here-are-a-few-things-to-keep-in-mind/91181325 | false | 2 |

In addition to the need created by large-scale boycott of Russia, there’s a large global market for Ukraine’s high-quality, accessible productions
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has not only rallied the international community behind the beleaguered nation but spurred unprecedented interest and demand for Ukrainian TV shows and movies.
That was the key takeaway for me after attending MipTV 2022 earlier this month — the 59th annual conference for content buyers, sellers and financiers returned to Cannes for the first time since the pandemic hit in 2020.

With Russia’s attack in the news and seemingly on everyone’s mind, it was clear the entertainment executives at MipTV wanted to show their support for Ukraine beyond putting out a press release or adding a flag to their LinkedIn profile pictures. This was about real financial backing. What I heard from content buyers time and again over the course of nearly 100 meetings was, “We need to acquire rights to more Ukrainian TV shows and movies.”
This was consistent across the board — coming from companies in the U.S., Western Europe and, in particular, Latin America. And the major Ukrainian media companies — Film.UA Group, 1+1 Media, Media Group Ukraine and StarLightMedia, the nation’s largest broadcaster, among others — were all on hand to make deals. They were presenting as a united Ukrainian pavilion, just a few booths down from Whip Media’s booth.
To be clear, this isn’t simply about offering financial support to a country in need. There are a handful of legitimate business and artistic reasons for the rise in demand for Ukrainian content.
First, it’s important to note Ukrainian films and shows have, for the most part, strong production value. Much of this is due to the Ukrainian government pumping tens of millions of dollars into the country’s cinema industry in the last decade — a trend that hasn’t decelerated since the 2019 election of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, an actor and comedian who first rose to fame in a sitcom playing an ordinary schoolteacher whose viral rant about government catapults him into the presidency.
It’s worth noting that Zelenskyy’s TV show, “Servant of the People,” which ran from 2015 to 2019, has been one of the clearest examples of the recent spike in demand for Ukrainian content. Netflix added the show back to its service in the U.S. last month amid increased fanfare, about a week after the show’s rights were purchased by Channel 4 in the U.K.
Content travelability — or how well certain shows and movies perform outside their initial markets — is also another key factor at play. Drama is a popular TV genre in Ukraine, and that’s helping to make the country’s shows more attractive outside of Eastern Europe. Turkish TV dramas, for example, have found a second life in Latin America in the last decade, but that’s also driven up prices. At MipTV, I heard from several LatAm content buyers who were turning their focus to acquiring Ukrainian series because it was both culturally familiar and affordable compared to pricier Turkish shows.
Ukrainian content is also able to fill a void left for buyers who would typically be looking to acquire Russian shows and movies. It’s almost hard to believe now, with Hollywood joining the recent wave of boycotts, but Russian content was one of the hottest commodities at MipTV just a few years ago. That’s clearly changed, and it’s left an opening. And Ukrainian content, thanks to its similar sensibilities and comparably high production values, has become largely interchangeable with Russian programming. Another factor: A plurality of Ukrainian shows and movies are in Russian, since about 30% of the population speaks it as their first language. (Most of the dialogue in “Servant of the People,” for one example, is Russian.)
The shift in focus toward Ukrainian content has obviously followed a real tragedy that’s affecting millions of people. This shouldn’t be minimized. But leaving Cannes, I at least could take some solace in knowing Ukrainian directors, producers and actors were receiving a new level of interest in their work. Hopefully it’ll stay that way for years to come.

CANBERA (dpa-AFX) - The Canadian dollar was higher against its major counterparts in the European session on Friday, as a data showed that Canadian economy expanded at the fastest pace since March 2021 in February.
Data from Statistics Canada showed that real gross domestic product climbed by 1.1 percent in February, following a 0.2 percent increase in January.
Economists had forecast a 0.8 percent growth.
The strong data boosted hopes that the Bank of Canada will deliver another aggressive rate hike at the meeting in June.
Oil prices rose amid prospects of a ban on Russian crude imports to the European Union as Germany has dropped its opposition to the plan.
The loonie climbed to 1.2719 against the greenback, marking a 3-day high. If the loonie rises further, it may find resistance around the 1.25 level.
The loonie touched 1.3388 against the euro, its strongest level since April 2015. On the upside, 1.32 is likely seen as the next resistance level for the loonie.
The loonie rebounded to 0.9103 against the aussie, from a low of 0.9143 it touched at 7:35 am ET. The loonie is seen finding resistance around the 0.90 level.
The loonie was higher against the yen, with the pair trading at 102.41. The next possible resistance for the loonie is seen around the 105.00 level.
Looking ahead, University of Michigan's final consumer sentiment index for April will be featured in the New York session.

Which action camera is best?
Action cameras are capable of taking some of the most breathtaking footage you can capture, such as point-of-view shots of climbing a mountain, kayaking through rough waters or biking along a picturesque path. You can even strap one to your dog with a specialized harness to get adorable images of your furry pal chasing a ball.
GoPro was the first brand to sell action cameras commercially, and they’re still the best you can buy. Their number one offering is the GoPro Max. It offers 5.6K resolution recording and 1080p live-streaming, plus it can record 360-degree video and audio.
What to know before you buy an action camera
Durability
Action cameras’ biggest claim to fame is their durability. The best are built to withstand constant contact with the harshest possible conditions, but you need to spend several hundred dollars to get a camera with this level of durability. That said, even the cheapest models can withstand low drops and most direct impacts better than the average smartphone. Essentially, the more intense your sport is, the more research you should do about the durability of your prospective camera.
Data storage
Action cameras have onboard data storage but rarely have enough to hold more than an hour of recording at best. Instead, most rely on using secure digital cards to save footage. When shopping for appropriate SD cards, make sure it’s compatible with your camera before purchasing. Keep in mind that higher resolutions take up more space, so buy SD cards with storage sizes to match.
What’s included
Action cameras rarely come without some bundled items. Standard inclusions are replaceable or rechargeable batteries, SD cards, remote controls and carrying cases.
What to look for in a quality action camera
Image quality
Image quality is given in terms of resolution and camera megapixels.
- Resolution: Most action cameras record with at least HD resolution, or 720p. Better models record in full HD or 4K — 1080p and 1440p, respectively. Basically, the higher the resolution of your camera, the more pixels will be used per frame, meaning it will look more crisp and detailed.
- Megapixels: Action cameras tend to have cameras with 8-16 megapixels. The more megapixels it has, the more detail can be captured.
Stabilization
Action cameras rarely record steady footage, making what you capture sometimes difficult to watch. However, better-quality cameras include automatic image stabilization to counteract this problem.
If your camera doesn’t have stabilization or has low-quality stabilization, you can always use video editing software on a computer to stabilize it.
Waterproofing
Most action cameras have some degree of waterproofing, usually up to a maximum of 30 feet. Better cameras can be submerged up to 100 feet. You can also buy waterproof cases.
How much you can expect to spend on an action camera
Action cameras typically cost $100-$750. Cameras for less than $150 are perfect for casual use. Professionals will spend a minimum of $400 for the best but should look in the $200-$350 range if they want to save money.
Action camera FAQ
Why do I need an action camera if I have a good smartphone camera?
A. Though usually high-quality, modern smartphone cameras are contained within a fragile shell. This means your phone can’t resist the same rigors of high-energy activities that action cameras are designed to shrug off. A smartphone’s biggest weakness is minimal water resistance. However, even in situations without the risk of water, there’s still the likelihood of cracked screens and broken cases from being dropped or taking a hard hit.
Can footage be edited directly on the action camera?
A. Some have the ability, and others don’t. Those that allow the user to edit footage on the device tend only to offer the most basic editing abilities, such as trimming video length. However, some models have software to connect your computer to your camera so you can edit your footage on the device before transferring it to the computer or other storage. All that said, it is likely you will still need to transfer your footage to a computer eventually for proper editing to make it look professional.
What happens to my footage if I run out of storage while filming without noticing?
A. Most action cameras will automatically stop recording and make some sort of sound or flash an LED to indicate you’re out of storage space. Few, if any, will overwrite the oldest shot footage. You can avoid either scenario by making sure to start each recording session with a fresh, empty SD card.
What’s the best action camera to buy?
Top action camera

Top action camera for the money
What you need to know: It’s perfect for hobbyists and occasional use.

You will never scare me
This past Monday morning, I checked my email and got the email I knew would eventually arrive once I had started writing a column on LGBTQ issues.
The email from dontneedacceptance was essentially a graphic list of ways I should be killed for being queer.
Ok, well, that happened.
I debated whether or not to simply ignore the email or write a response to it as I figured there was merit to both choices. Ultimately, I decided a response was necessary. The reason being is that I figure that there could wind up being others down the road and I need to make a few things very clear right now.
You will not stop me.
You do not scare me.
You will never, ever scare me.
At no point will I ever fear you more than the dust bunnies underneath my bed.
There is nothing you can do that will cause me to stop fighting for the LGBTQ community.
In short, do not waste your time thinking you’re going to be the one that finally gets to me.
You really think as an LGBTQ person, I haven’t been threatened before? You think I am not already familiar with every point you could put into your hate filled screed?
You really thought that if you could come up with some super colorful descriptor of offing me, that you might just be the one to finally put a twinge of fear in my head? Please, just spare me your fumbling, hackneyed attempts to regurgitate scenes from eighties slasher flicks.
What I am getting at, is at this point telling me I should be disemboweled and strangled with my own intestines is practically cliche. Try to get some material that was not first done in an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon.
If you think this is a challenge, or that you know the trick to finally get to me, just know that saying you know where I live or that I will never see you coming, are also on the overused cliche list. So don’t even think of going there.
If you are still thinking you are the one, just know that I would love for the opportunity to perfect my eye-roll, shoulder shrug combo. Thanks to your kind, I’m already pretty good at it.

Coil : STRONG GROWTH IN 2021 RESULTS
STRONG GROWTH IN 2021 RESULTS
Sales: €25.2 M, up 10 %
EBITDA: €6.3 M, (24.8% of sales), 6-fold increase compared to 2020
Net income: €2.1 M, i.e. 8.1 % of sales
Net financial debt: 13 % of equity at 31 December 2021
Medium-term carbon neutrality goals
COIL, world leader in aluminium anodising, has released its annual results for the 2021 financial year.
Significant events of the financial year
After a 2020 financial year heavily impacted by the global crisis linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, COIL recorded a significant improvement in its performance in 2021.
The aftermath of the health crisis continued to affect the Company's operations.
Tolling Sales were held back by lengthy delivery times of anodising quality aluminium from European rolling mills due to very high demand in other sectors. Export sales of Package products1 to Asia suffered due to border closures and extended delivery delays, due to a lack of capacity in the supply chain of aluminium and very high delivery costs.
In this context, Tolling Sales recovered (+24% compared to 2020), particularly in the second half of the year with the continued recovery of demand in the construction and architectural end markets. Package Sales decreased (-24%) due to a high comparison base in 2020, which included large orders delivered in China and could not be compensated by the solid recovery of sales in Europe in 2021.
This shift in product mix towards Tolling Sales resulted in a significant improvement in the Company's gross margin given a much higher margins in Tolling Sales than in Package Sales, which include metal.
From an industrial point of view, the Company continued to optimise its variable costs by relying on a rationalised production capacity. Growth and productivity improvements thus had a positive impact on the Company's operations and profitability.
Results
Sales for the 2021 financial year were up 10% on the previous year, amounting to €25.2M, above the Company's expectations, but benefited from a favourable basis for comparison: 2020 sales were down by 23% on the previous year and had been deeply affected by the consequences of the health crisis.
EBITDA increased by €5.3M to €6.3M, i.e. 24.8% of sales compared to 4.4% in 2020 and 21.0% in 2019. This favourable trend is explained by i) the increase in gross margin due to the growth in sales and the shift in product mix towards subcontracting, leading to a lower weighting of metal in sales, and ii) the decrease in operating expenses with the reduction in payroll and non-recurring items related to management remuneration and bonuses.
After a €0.4M reduction in provisions and depreciation, operating profit was €2.8M, compared with a loss of €(2.9)M in 2020 and a profit of €2.1M in 2019.
Net income reached €2.1M, an increase of €5.4M compared to 2020 and €1.1M compared to 2019. It included financial expenses of €0.6M.
Summary income statement
Review
Given the increased results, shareholders' equity at 31 December 2021 was €29.2M, up €2.1M on 31 December 2020. Net financial debt at 31 December 2021 was €3.9M, down €4.7M on the previous year, and represented 13% of equity, compared to 32% at 31 December 2020 and 28% at 31 December 2019.
2022 first-quarter sales and outlook
Q1 2022 followed the trend observed in 2021. Sales were €6.6M, up 11.8% compared to the first quarter of 2021. Package Sales (€1.2M) were down 28.4%, while Tolling Sales maintained their recovery (€5.4M ; +28.1%).
The company is confident in its prospects, barring any major new impact from the health crisis and the geopolitical context. However, the inflationary situation could weigh on the Company's margins despite the increase in sales prices at the beginning of the year.
In a context of a transition to new energy sources and a reduction of fossil fuel consumption, the Company has been exploring for more than a year ways to accelerate the long-term purchase of new renewable energy sources at attractive costs, especially in Germany. Working with a specialised industrial partner, an action plan, to be implemented in 2022 and 2023, will enable the Company to make significant savings in the long term and to improve its energy efficiency, with carbon neutrality goals for the Bernburg industrial site in Germany.
Despite a complex economic environment, the Company continues to invest in the profitable development of its business. With a flexible and efficient industrial organisation, a growing geographical footprint and a solid financial position, the Company remains confident in its development prospects by capitalising on its portfolio of premium, sustainable and low-carbon products to strengthen its global leadership.
Additional information
The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 April 2022. They are included in the 2021 consolidated annual accounts available on the Company's financial website (http://investors.coil.be).
Agenda
About COIL
COIL is the world's leading anodiser in the building and industrial sectors and trades under the ALOXIDE brand name.
Anodising is an electrochemical process which develops a natural, protective oxide layer on the surface of aluminium and can be coloured in a range of UV-proof finishes. It gives the metal excellent resistance to corrosion and/or reinforces its functional qualities. Anodising preserves all the natural and ecological properties of aluminium; it retains its high rigidity and excellent strength-to-weight ratio, its non-magnetic properties, its exceptional resistance to corrosion. The metal remains totally and repeatedly recyclable through simple re-melting. Anodised aluminium is used in a wide variety of industries and applications: architecture, design, manufacturing and the automotive sector.
COIL deploys an industrial model that creates value by leveraging its unique know-how, its operational excellence, the quality of its investments and the expertise of its people. COIL has around 120 employees in Belgium and Germany and generated a turnover of €25.2 M in 2021.

The Ohio Turnpike and several other roadways were closed late April 27 after two semi-trucks were involved in a fiery crash in Elyria Township.
The crash occurred at 8:20 p.m. near mile post 142.7 in the eastbound lanes in Lorain County, according to a news release from the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
Neither driver was injured, but the materials that caught on fire on the Turnpike as a result of the crash brought area motorists to a halt for more than an hour, the release stated.
Jamar Peterson, 34, of California, was driving a white 2018 International semi-truck in the right lane when the vehicle he was driving became disabled, parked partially in the roadway, according to the OHP.
Jovan Anastov, 57, of Florida, was driving a blue 2015 Volvo semi-truck eastbound in the right lane when his vehicle struck Peterson’s truck, ran off road left and struck the concrete median wall, the release stated.
“Both semi-trucks became fully engulfed in flames,” the release stated.
Peterson was transporting a load of resin that continued to burn for about an hour following the wreck, the OHP said.
Both east and west bound lanes of the Ohio Turnpike were shut down, as well as the Interstate 90 interchange overpass in addition to roadways intersecting with state Route 113 such as West Ridge and Murray Ridge roads.
The OHP Milan Post is investigating the crash, the release stated.
At this time, no charges have been issued.
“Alcohol does not appear to be a contributing factor in the crash and both drivers reported wearing their seat belts,” the release stated.
The Amherst Fire Department, Amherst Township Fire Department, Carlisle Fire Department, Elyria Township Fire Department, Amherst Police Department, Lorain County Sheriff’s Office, Ohio Turnpike Infrastructure Commission and Interstate Towing assisted on scene, according to the release. | https://www.morningjournal.com/2022/04/28/multiple-closures-after-semi-trucks-crash-on-turnpike-in-elyria-township/ | 2022-04-29T15:56:43Z | https://www.morningjournal.com/2022/04/28/multiple-closures-after-semi-trucks-crash-on-turnpike-in-elyria-township/ | true | 1 |

Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier claims Covid patients gasping for breath were 'actors', PCR tests 'were the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on mankind', images of destruction in Ukraine are 'falsified' and takes aim at Gary Lineker
- Southampton legend Le Tissier has air another set of controversial opinions
- He has questioned the veracity of images of Covid patients fighting for life
- Le Tissier suggested Covid testing was a 'fraud' on an enormous scale
- He also cast doubt on the authenticity of images of massacres in Ukraine
- Le Tissier has also fired back at Gary Lineker for calling him out on Twitter
Matt Le Tissier has doubled down on his controversial beliefs about the Covid pandemic with the Southampton legend claiming 'PCR tests were the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on mankind.'
The former midfielder, 53, has also claimed that dying Covid patients in Italy 'were actors' and that government interference in people's lives during lockdown was an 'injustice'.
Le Tissier, whose Twitter posts promoting conspiracy theories about the pandemic and the Ukraine war led to him quitting an ambassador role at Southampton, also takes aim at Gary Lineker for 'going out of his way to dig me out.'
It came after Le Tissier lost his job on Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday in August 2020 as the popular show was overhauled.
In an interview with The Times, Le Tissier said: 'A couple of years ago I felt like something wasn't right. People were interfering with my life who shouldn't have been - mainly the Government and scientists.
'I felt a real sense of injustice and when I feel a sense of injustice I can't keep my mouth shut. I have to speak up.'
Southampton legend Le Tissier has once again aired controversial views and the Ukraine war
Le Tissier has also taken aim at Gary Lineker after the presenter called him out on Twitter
On the news images of intensive care patients struggling to breathe in Bergamo not long before Covid hit the United Kingdom, he said: 'Some of those were actors, by the way.'
Le Tissier also claimed that 'PCR tests were the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on mankind' but denied that he was anti-vax.
Earlier this month, Le Tissier appeared to suggest that the media have lied about the unfolding horrors in Ukraine.
He retweeted a post from an account named Unity News Net, which claimed the atrocities in Ukraine had been falsified by the media after 'weapons of mass destruction', 'Covid' and 'the Hunter Biden laptop'.
Le Tissier captioned his tweet 'This', with a finger-pointing emoji down to the Unity News Net post.
On Twitter, Le Tissier retweeted a post suggesting the media have 'lied' about certain events
Le Tissier played 270 Premier League games for Southampton and scored 100 goals
He has suggested that Covid PCR tests 'were the biggest fraud perpetrated on mankind'
His followers were instead dismayed that he was appearing to question the legitimacy of the horrifying reports of Vladimir Putin's forces slaughtering civilians and dumping their bodies into mass graves.
Grisly images of what are claimed to be civilian massacres allegedly carried out by Russian forces in Bucha before they withdrew stirred a global outcry.
US president Joe Biden lambasted Putin as a 'war criminal' and described the killing of civilians in Bucha as a 'war crime'.
In the Times interview, Le Tissier says that some of the images of devastation in Ukrainian towns and cities during the conflict 'have been falsified.'

Le Tissier tried to distance himself from his posts by saying he does 'not advocate war'
Back in September, he tweeted: 'Why didn't we ever try this hard to 'defeat' flu? It has a similar fatality rate to 'Covid' and actually affects younger people more? Answers on a postcard.'
Match of the Day host Lineker replied: 'Yeah Matt, why didn't someone come up with a flu vaccine?'
Now Le Tissier has hit back at the England forward, saying: 'I find it funny that he goes out of his way to criticise me for having an opinion that's different to his.
'I have followed Gary on social media for many years and a lot of the stuff I completely disagree with but I have never attacked him for it. But the other way round...
'He is meant to be the nice bloke, the woke Gary Lineker, nice and inclusive but he is the one going out of his way trying to dig me out.'

Two traffic officers were nabbed following a high-speed chase along the Madiba Drive in Tembisa, east of Johannesburg on Thursday, according to the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department (EMPD).
The bogus cops, who were wearing Gauteng traffic officers’ uniforms, were spotted driving recklessly in a white VW Polo sedan affixed with false registration plates and fitted with blue lights and a siren.
A hijacked victim, shot in the abdomen and pinned down against his will, was discovered when the men were cornered.
“The impersonators were immediately handcuffed after the victim brought the dreadful encounter to the attention of the EMPD officers that he was hijacked, shot, and kidnapped by the same bogus officers,” said the EMPD in a statement.
“They are detained at the Tembisa police station and are facing charges of hijacking, kidnapping, attempted murder, impersonating police officials, and being in possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition.
The EMPD is not ruling out linking the bogus cops to other cases.

Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo announced that Richard DalBello, a venerable figure in government and the private-sector satellite industry, has been appointed to be the new director of NOAA’s Office of Space Commerce (OSC), the coordinator of space commerce policy activities within the U.S. Department of Commerce. DalBello officially will begin his duties on May 9.
OSC’s key mission is to foster the conditions for the economic growth and technological advancement of the U.S. commercial space industry, issuing, enforcing and maintaining operating licenses for private remote sensing space systems and positioning the nation as a leader in space. OSC is also responsible for modernizing and managing the U.S. systems for space situational awareness.
DalBello has more than 30 years of public and private sector commercial space experience. In his previous position as Virgin Atlantic’s Vice President of Global Engagement, he managed international business development for the company’s fleet of carrier aircraft and space vehicles.
In announcing the selection, Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo said, “We are excited for Richard to join NOAA and the Department at a crucial moment for the Office of Space Commerce. He brings the experience and leadership needed that is critical right now as the OSC works closely with the Commerce leadership team, White House, Department of Defense, NASA and the private sector to advance U.S. leadership in the global commercial space industry.”
Before his career at Virgin Atlantic, DalBello was the director of Space and Aeronautics in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. There, he played a key role in the development and implementation of domestic and international space policy and program priorities.
“The important work of the Office of Space Commerce is a top priority at NOAA as it is for the nation,” said Dr. Rick Spinrad, NOAA Administrator. “With Richard leading OSC, the agency is equipped to enhance the safety, stability and sustainability of a growing commercial space environment.”
DalBello, a native of Springfield, Illinois, served in several additional private sector leadership roles and a previous position in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.
“This is an exciting opportunity and I appreciate the support and encouragement OSC is receiving from NOAA, the Department of Commerce, The White House and Congress,” DalBello said.
He added: “Space safety and sustainability are two of the most critical issues facing the international community today and I am pleased the Biden Administration has made these issues a priority.”
DalBello earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science from the University of Illinois, a Doctorate in Jurisprudence from the University of San Francisco and a Master’s in Law from McGill University.

Anthony Ralston vows to take the ‘craziness’ out of derby clash with Rangers
Celtic full-back Anthony Ralston vowed to take the “craziness” out of Sunday’s derby clash ahead of what could be a momentous occasion for his side against Rangers.
The cinch Premiership leaders will go nine points clear with a goal difference advantage of at least 21 if they beat Rangers ahead of the final three league games of the season.
The title will be all but secured if Celtic follow up their two previous league wins against their rivals and the home supporters are sure to be arriving at Parkhead anticipating a party.
But Ralston knows the players have to focus on the task in hand amid the mayhem.
“It would be easy to get carried away and think about the title but individually and as a team we have got the same focus to take each game as it comes,” he said. “We have three points on the line and that’s going to be the focus.
“It is a derby game, they are crazy and in these games there’s things that happen. We are all aware of that and we have all had experience of it through the course of this season.
“It’s a game that both sides want to win but we take all the craziness out of it and don’t let the noise of it all get involved. We focus on ourselves and the team and go out and play our football.
“It comes with the experience of playing in front of these crowds and also it’s about focusing on our style of play and our football, not letting the noise affect that in any sort of way, or the type of game or other external things.
“It’s about focusing on us as a team and focusing on our football and what we need to win the game. That’s what will get us through regardless of anything else.”
Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou feels coping with the expectations and atmospheres around such occasions is a big challenge for players.
“You know they are human beings, their emotions will be running high on the day, they understand the significance of the game and, when you have the atmosphere we are going to have at Celtic Park, that has an effect on people,” Postecoglou said.
“That’s the challenge of performing well in the big games and playing for big clubs, you need to channel that in a positive way and use that to further drive the principles that have got you there in the first place.
“Sometimes it can be easy to get swayed by that and believe you need to do something extra or something slightly different. That’s when that sort of energy can be used in the wrong way.
“The challenge for our players and the team on big occasions is to make sure we use it – we want to have that energy and enthusiasm and passion that’s going to be on the day, but use it in the context that we make sure we still stick to our principles.
“That’s what players want to get challenged at the most: when the stakes are the highest, can I bring my best game and stick to my principles?”
Rangers visit Celtic Park in the midst of a Europa League semi-final having restricted RB Leipzig to a 1-0 lead after the first leg on Thursday to give themselves a chance of progressing to the Seville final at Ibrox next week.
But the Light Blues showed they could set aside their European exertions when they knocked Celtic out of the Scottish Cup within three days of reaching the semi-finals with an extra-time win over Braga.
Postecoglou will not put major emphasis on the Hampden clash as he prepares for Sunday.
“I look back on it like you look back on every game, and the game before that and the game before that,” said Postecoglou, whose team bounced back with a 2-0 win over Ross County.
“But that’s reviewed after the game and we give the feedback to the players on the areas we could have done better.
“It was a very tight game, which you expect in a semi-final, but that doesn’t mean you take everything from that into this game.
“A league game is different to a cup game, there’s different pressures involved, and different objectives for everyone.
“We responded really well last week, which was important, we played our football, and it’s important that we take that into Sunday as well.”

A Samsung advert featuring a woman running alone at 2am has been described as ‘ludicrous’ and ‘tone deaf’.
The advert shows a woman running through the streets of London in the early hours by herself while wearing a Samsung smartwatch.
Women’s safety group Reclaim These Streets described the campaign as ‘tone deaf’ in light of the death of Irish teacher Ashling Murphy, who was killed on a run in January.
The 23-year-old’s death in Tullamore, Co Offaly, caused shockwaves and sparked vigils across Ireland and beyond in her memory, as calls were made for a change in attempts to tackle gender-based violence.
It led to the hashtag #shewasonarun as women shared stories about being harassed while out running.
Jamie Klingler, co-founder of Reclaim These Streets, said: ‘It’s so tone deaf, especially in light of Ashling Murphy’s death.
‘It’s disrespectful. It isn’t safe for us to run at night.’
Referring to a scene in the ad when a man on a bike rides up behind the woman and they interact, Ms Klingler said: ‘That’s the bit that really made me wince. It’s almost laughable how bad this ad is.’
Ms Klingler said the ad ‘absolutely should be pulled’.
Esther Newman, editor of the Women’s Running magazine and podcast, told the PA news agency: ‘I can’t imagine any woman wanting to run at that time, anywhere, certainly not in a city.
‘It seems like a really naive advert. In theory it’s a lovely idea (to be able to run at 2am). In reality it’s not happening.’
Ms Newman said 70% of the runners the magazine had surveyed had faced issues around safety.
She said: ‘The very idea that woman would go out running at 2am and be wearing headphones is absolutely ludicrous.
‘I don’t think the ad is dangerous because I don’t think any woman would see it and think, “Oh, I’m going to do that”.’
Samsung said: ‘The Night Owls campaign was designed with a positive message in mind: to celebrate individuality and freedom to exercise at all hours.
‘It was never our intention to be insensitive to ongoing conversations around women’s safety.
‘As a global company with a diverse workforce, we apologise for how this may have been received.’

BERLIN (AP) — German police have searched offices of Deutsche Bank in connection with a money laundering investigation.
The bank confirmed Friday that its offices had been raided.
“This is an investigative measure by the Frankfurt public prosecutor’s office in connection with suspicious activity reports filed by the bank," it said in a statement. "Deutsche Bank is fully cooperating with the authorities.”
German media reported that prosecutors are investigating whether the country's biggest bank failed to alert authorities quickly enough about suspicious transactions by one of its customers. | https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Deutsche-Bank-office-searched-in-money-laundering-17136580.php | 2022-04-29T16:13:37Z | https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Deutsche-Bank-office-searched-in-money-laundering-17136580.php | true | null |
A London mum was told she could use her living room as a bedroom by a council that failed to find a suitable home for her family. A mum-of-three was refused a new property from Westminster City Council while living in a cramped, damp home riddled with mice, a watchdog report concluded.
The housing ombudsman found multiple failings in how the local authority handled the situation and ordered it to pay the mum, known as Miss X, £500 compensation. The family's ordeal began in October 2020, when Miss X asked the council to move them to a bigger home.
She was given a temporary two-bed property in 2015 when she had two young kids but asked for a larger space arguing there was no longer enough room and it wasn't suitable for her eldest, aged 10, to still be sharing a bedroom. She also told the authority there was widespread damp, mould and a mice problem.
READ MORE: Mum told to sleep in living room by council that failed to find new home for family
A report by the ombudsman said the council told Miss X her two older kids should have their own rooms but she was not legally classed as being overcrowded "because she can use the living room as a bedroom".
It says the council told the ombudsman there was no damp in the flat but just some condensation caused by poor ventilation. However, her housing association's told the watchdog there was damp in the property - inside the kitchen from a leak in the flat above and in one of the bedrooms.
The report also said the council claimed Miss X refused to let contractors repair the property. But the ombudsman ruled she had a right to because she was worried about catching Covid-19 at the time and she had just given birth. They also said one of her kids was at risk because they have asthma.
It adds: "Miss X’s concerns about her family being at risk were therefore not unfounded. Due to the ongoing restrictions, and the time of year, as well as the ages of her children, it was not practicable for Miss X to be away from the property all day while works were carried out, as she might have done in other circumstances.
"The council remains responsible for ensuring that homeless households live in safe and suitable accommodation. The rodent infestation and the serious leaks Miss X reported should have prompted the council to consider whether it needed to act to ensure the property remained safe and suitable."
The council told Miss X that her accommodation was suitable but did not tell her that she had a right to appeal the decision, which the ombudsman said is a fault and an injustice. The council eventually gave Miss X emergency housing after she complained to the watchdog and suffered from another leak at the property. It was ordered to pay the woman £500 and apologise to her.
The council's executive director of housing Debbie Jackson said: “We fully accept the findings of the ombudsman’s report, and would like to apologise to the tenant. Miss X and her family have now been moved to more suitable accommodation.”

The Bold and The Beautiful Showrunner Brad Bell Teases Sheila's Unmasking For May Sweeps
The Bold and the Beautiful showrunner Brad Bell previewed all of the drama to come during May sweeps in the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest, on sale now. In particular, the executive producer/head writer teased big things to come for newly-widowed Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and her murderous mother-in-law Sheila (Kimberlin Brown).
Bell mused:
May is really about Steffy’s journey and making sure that there is justice and making Sheila pay for her atrocities. I think May is going to be a very entertaining month and one to tune in for.
Recommended Articles
We've seen Sheila off her own son (Finn, played by Tanner Novlan) and even attempt to do in Steffy, but now the villainess will be praying that the fashion heiress won't remember who put a bullet in her. Bell added:
Sheila is hoping against hope that Steffy has permanent memory loss, but the big news is that Steffy will remember that Sheila shot her and Finn. So, we’re building to a big moment of confrontation. Sheila thinks she may have gotten away with this, but in fact, she hasn’t because Steffy is going to call her out on it and that will be a big moment.
Meanwhile, once the cat is out of the bag about all of Sheila's misdeeds, things might be shaken up between Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang), Ridge (Thorsten Kaye), and Taylor (Krista Allen). Bell revealed:
When all of Sheila’s manipulations are revealed, including New Year’s Eve and the champagne, Ridge is going to realize that Brooke’s own indiscretion with Deacon [Sean Kanan] — kissing Santa Claus and getting drunk — was an effect of Sheila’s manipulations, and he’s going to really soften his stance on Brooke and really be more torn than ever between these two wonderful ladies and mothers of his kids. | https://daytimeconfidential.com/2022/04/29/the-bold-and-the-beautiful-showrunner-brad-bell-teases-sheilas-unmasking-for-may-sweeps | 2022-04-29T16:16:49Z | https://daytimeconfidential.com/2022/04/29/the-bold-and-the-beautiful-showrunner-brad-bell-teases-sheilas-unmasking-for-may-sweeps | true | 1 |
Musk sells $8.5B in Tesla stock as he readies to buy Twitter
In the three days after Elon Musk engineered a deal to buy Twitter, he sold roughly $8.5 billion worth of shares in Tesla to help fund the purchase
Musk reported the sale of 9.6 million shares in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday and Friday. The trades were made at prices ranging from $822.68 to $999.13.
On Friday, shares of Tesla Inc. were going for around $904.50.
The world’s richest man, who is the CEO of Tesla, tweeted Thursday night that he doesn’t plan any further sales of the company’s shares.
Twitter announced Monday that it had agreed to be purchased by Musk for $54.20 a share, or about $44 billion. Analysts said the deal could make Tesla investors nervous that Musk will be distracted by Twitter and less engaged in running the electric car company — and have to sell a large number of Tesla shares to finance the acquisition. Musk is Tesla’s largest shareholder.
On Tuesday, Tesla shares closed down 12%, the biggest single-day drop since Sept. 8, 2020. The shares are up more than 3% Friday but still down 10% for the week.
Twitter shares rose to $49.72, up 1.2% but still well below the deal price.
Before Musk’s deal for Twitter is completed, shareholders will have to weigh in. So will regulators in the U.S. and in countries where Twitter does business.
So far though, few hurdles are expected, despite objections from some of Twitter’s own employees and from users who worry about Musk’s stance on free speech and what it might mean for harassment and hate speech on the platform.

After the state Court of Appeals tossed the newly drawn congressional district maps, all sides agree that the lawsuit challenging Democratic congressional candidate Josh Riley's ballot status is now "moot."
The state Supreme Court in Albany, where the lawsuit was filed, asked attorneys for Riley and Diane Dwire, who challenged Riley's petition, how to proceed after the state Court of Appeals ruling. A hearing was scheduled for Monday, May 2.
The state Board of Elections informed state Supreme Court Judge Laura Jordan, who presided over the case, that the hearing is "moot and should not proceed" because of the Court of Appeals ruling requiring New York to draw new congressional district lines.
Joseph Cote, the attorney representing Dwire, wrote that "the pending motion and the entirety of this action should be moot." Riley's attorney, James Long, said he preferred to "proceed on the merits" or have the court consider his motion to dismiss the case. But he agreed with the state Board of Elections that the ruling "renders this litigation moot."
People are also reading…
In a follow-up notice from the court, it acknowledged that the redistricting decision "has potentially rendered this action moot" and adjourned the hearing.
One reason the lawsuit is now considered moot is that the ruling will likely cause the rescheduling of the congressional primary elections, which would require a new petitioning process.
Dwire, a member of the Onondaga County Democratic Committee and a supporter of Democratic congressional candidate Francis Conole, objected to Riley's petitions and filed a lawsuit accusing his campaign of fraud. The legal challenge targeted at least two top Riley campaign staffers who circulated petitions. Seven voters, in affidavits, said the aides did not witness their signatures, despite identifying themselves as the witnesses on the petitions.
Because of the seriousness of the allegations, Riley's status on the Democratic primary ballot was in jeopardy. The lawsuit aimed to have his petitions invalidated, which would result in his removal from the ballot.
With the Court of Appeals redistricting decision, it's possible Riley could run in a different district. Riley was one of two Democrats in the short-lived 22nd Congressional District who reside in Ithaca. If the new map leaves Tompkins County out of the redrawn central New York district, one option is to run in Ithaca's new district. However, members of Congress are not required to live in the districts they represent. He could choose to run in the newly drawn Syracuse-area district.
The new maps are expected to be released in May. A court-appointed special master will oversee the process.

India, UK asked to learn from US on mobility of researchers
We need a free data agreement, he said.Imperial College London, which hosted the session as a celebration of its India ties, has 500 Indian students on the rolls and says in the last five years its academics have co-authored just over 1,200 research publications with partners at more than 300 Indian institutions.Its research partners include the IISc Bangalore, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Christian Medical College, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research.
- Country:
- United Kingdom
India and the UK must learn from the model followed by the US on encouraging scientific research by allowing a free flow of people and ideas, one of India's leading scientific advisers has said.
Professor K VijayRaghavan, who has just completed his tenure as the Principal Scientific Adviser to the government of India, highlighted the issue during a virtual address at a UK-India Science and Innovation Partnerships dialogue at Imperial College London this week, along with Sir Patrick Vallance, Chief Scientific Adviser to the UK government.
"Both our countries need to learn from America. America has succeeded because of its welcoming nature for ideas and immigrants from anywhere in the world,'' said VijayRaghavan.
"The UK needs to, in my opinion, do this on a scale and in a manner which is distinct from its general policy on immigration. Talented people, the best and the brightest in the world, need to be able to come in and out very, very quickly; and if the UK needs to do this, India has to do this 100 times more," he said.
Vallance echoed the view, highlighting how the AstraZeneca and Serum Institute of India COVID-19 vaccine collaboration had resulted in people ''right across the globe benefiting".
"Science fundamentally rests on partnerships and Indian scientists have played an enormously important part in UK science, and have been crucial to the advances here," he said.
"India today is firmly on the path to being a science superpower," he added.
The hybrid event on Tuesday brought together thought leaders from India and the UK to discuss and promote the crucial role of research, education and innovation partnerships in driving forward the Roadmap 2030, launched by Prime Ministers Boris Johnson and Narendra Modi to enhance bilateral ties across all sectors.
"Our formal institutional engagements include the biennial UK-India Science and Innovation Council that usually sets the broad agenda for our cooperation," Indian High Commissioner Gaitri Issar Kumar said in her keynote address.
Pointing to the recent visit of Prime Minister Johnson to India, she flagged a broad range of collaborations, from civil nuclear and electric propulsion to earth system sciences and artificial intelligence (AI).
"I would emphasise that our partnership in science and technology research and innovation should eventually bring outcomes that are most relevant not only for our mutual progress and prosperity but which also enable us to bring progress and prosperity to third countries through adaptable, affordable and accessible technologies that help to sustain healthier climate resilient societies," she said.
Lord Jo Johnson, Chairman of Access Creative and former Minister of State for Universities, Science, Research and Innovation, coordinated a panel discussion on the scientific partnership between the two counties, also involving Professor Mary Ryan, Imperial College Interim Vice-Provost (Research and Enterprise), and Professor Govindan Rangarajan, Director of the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore.
"The stars are aligning for very real progress for the UK-India relationship and in no area is this clearer than in science and education," said Jo Johnson, a former universities minister and younger brother of Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
Rangarajan urged political leaders to create an India-UK data exchange to share important data.
''This is crucial for the knowledge partnerships to thrive. We need a free data agreement," he said.
Imperial College London, which hosted the session as a celebration of its India ties, has 500 Indian students on the rolls and says in the last five years its academics have co-authored just over 1,200 research publications with partners at more than 300 Indian institutions.
Its research partners include the IISc Bangalore, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Christian Medical College, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre and the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research.

Heights Libraries' summer reading program seeks to counter drop in reading scores
Parents with children in public and private schools alike have spent the past two years worried about the same thing: What is COVID and all its restrictions doing to my child’s education? Parents, teachers and school personnel struggled with two seemingly oppositional, yet undeniable, realities: Most kids learn better in school, and schools need to keep kids and personnel safe from COVID by switching to online learning, masking and social distancing.
Despite heroic efforts by parents, teachers and schools, the isolation and chaos of COVID took a toll. According to a study by the Brookings Institution, published in March, reading test scores for children in grades 3–8 dropped significantly between fall 2019, before the pandemic, and fall 2021, one year into the pandemic. Additionally, reading test-score gaps between low- and high-poverty elementary schools widened during the pandemic.
Few are surprised by these realities; in fact, the American Rescue Plan, which was signed into law in March 2021, allocates “$122 billion . . . to State educational agencies and school districts to help safely reopen and sustain the safe operation of schools and address the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the Nation’s students,” according to the U.S. Department of Education.
“While public libraries aren’t schools, we take our mission to support and encourage literacy very seriously,” said Sam Lapides, youth services manager at Heights Libraries. “It hopefully goes without saying that we offer free and open access to reading materials for every age and ability, but lately the need to encourage kids to read feels more urgent, which is why we are really eager to get kids signed up for our annual summer reading program this year.”
This year’s summer reading theme reflects that focus, with an emphasis on learning and growth, both intellectually and in the garden. Preschoolers through fifth-graders will be “Growing to New Heights,” and teens will be encouraged to “Grow Your Own Way.” In addition to reading, programs throughout the summer will focus on hands-on learning activities and topics, such as environmentally friendly crafts, gardening, and even bugs and worms.
Heights Libraries summer reading programs run June 6 through Aug. 31. Kids and teens can sign up at any of the four Heights Libraries branches: Coventry Village, Lee Road, Noble Neighborhood, or University Heights. Everyone gets a prize book when they sign up, and another book after reading for 30 days.
“It’s really important for kids to have their own books at home, in addition to checking out books at the library,” said Lapides. “Kids can win other fun prizes, but the prize books are a crucial part of our program. Having books in the home sends a strong message that reading is an integral, life-long skill that plays a part in every aspect of our lives, including giving us joy.”
Adults shouldn’t feel left out. They’ll have their own summer reading program, also called “Growing to New Heights,” with garden-focused prizes like a two-person yearlong membership to the Cleveland Botanical Garden and Holden Arboretum, a gardening prize package including a $50 Bremec Garden Center gift card and gardening books, and an indoor herb garden grow kit.
Full details about summer reading are available at heightslibrary.org.

Daily currency update
The Australian dollar downtrend continued through trade on Thursday, slipping below 0.71 US cents amid growing concern surrounding the global growth outlook. While equity markets enjoyed a modest improvement in risk sentiment, risk correlated currencies failed to see any upside risk-led flow as the AUD and NZD both tracked lower on the day. Headwinds to global growth are multiplying, heightening fears the global economy is teetering on the brink a recession next year. China’s lockdowns have all but crippled expectations for growth through Q2 and will likely spill into Q3, adding further supply chain issues and exacerbating global inflationary pressures. With commodity prices tumbling in recent weeks and markets adjusting positions ahead of tighter monetary policy conditions, the AUD has suffered a dramatic and swift correction. Having traded above 0.7650 in the wake of the April RBA policy meeting, the AUD touched intraday lows below 0.7060 overnight. With near term headwinds still in play, a reprieve in the recent sell off may be hard won. We continue to watch global rates, risk sentiment and monetary policy expectations for direction.
Key movers
In assessing key movers through the last 24 hours we cannot ignore the collapse of the Japanese yen. The story of the day has been the Bank of Japan’s commitment to its current program of yield curve control, bucking the trend of global central bank tightening and doubling down on its uber accommodative monetary policy stance. Policy makers announced Yield curve control interventions would now be fixed at 0.25% on a daily basis, a clear signal it remains staunch on maintaining record low interest rates. Previously Yield Curve controls had only been employed when the market threatened to force a break above the Bank’s 0.25% tolerance threshold. Given the recent depreciation in the yen and the political pressure that’s accompanied it, there was some suggestion the BoJ would offer forward guidance hinting at a loosening in yield curve control and a provision for more upward movement in rates. The USD lurched higher following the meeting, surging through 130 for the first time in two decades, touching session highs above 131 at 131.25. With the BoJ continuing to battle deflationary pressures and policy makers committed to the current policy platform there is scope to suggest USD/JPY could enjoy further upside through the near term. The USD index is stronger, marking new 20 year highs on the heels of the weaker yen and further euro and GBP softness. Despite some improvement in the risk narrative and only a modest uptick in rates when compared with European rates, the USD remains well bid and the preferred play for those chasing a higher yield return with the safety net of another risk off push. Our attentions turn now to a host of key data sets. US labour costs and wage growth data headline the US, set while Euro Area CPI dominates the European session
Expected ranges

EUR/USD holds above 1.0500 after US PCE inflation data
EUR/USD continues to trade in positive territory in positive territory above 1.0500 but seems to be having a difficult time gathering bullish momentum amid a negative shift in risk mood. The data from the US showed that the Core PCE inflation declined to 5.2% on a yearly basis in March, coming in lower than the market expectation of 5.3%.
GBP/USD falls below 1.2550 as investors assess latest US data
GBP/USD came under modest bearish pressure and fell below 1.2550 in the early American session, erasing a portion of its daily gains. The annual PCE inflation in the US jumped to 6.6% in March from 6.3% in February but the Core PCE declined to 5.2% from 5.3% in the same period.
Gold pulls away from daily highs, stays above $1,900
Gold lost its traction and started to pull away from the daily high it set at $1,920. The benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield is up more than 2% on the day after the mixed PCE inflation data from the US, making it difficult for XAU/USD to preserve its bullish momentum.

ST PAUL, Minn. — Every year, the Guggenheim Foundation awards fellowships to individuals making their mark in various fields. Of the nearly 2,500 applicants this year, 180 were appointed as fellows, including St. Paul's Ta-coumba Tyrone Aiken in the fine arts category.
"I applied for it like 8 or 9 times," Aiken said. "It's an honor. Huge honor."
What makes the recognition even more special? Aiken says he's colorblind. He says his mother figured it out first.
"I've always seen in layers," Aiken said. "My mother taught me the red apple and the green apple and then she had a rose and she put it in between. She said, 'Now which is the red apple?'"
He says he couldn't answer but one thing was clear. Aiken was an artist.
"I've been doing art since I was six," he said. "I did my first show. Made $657.36. The prices were changed by somebody else. I put one cent, two cents, three cents, one dollar, and this lady came and changed them all."
Over the years, many more people believed in him. As a high school student in Evanston, Illinois, he was invited to attend the International Design Conference in Aspen, Colorado. Later in the Twin Cities, Aiken bonded with Jacob Lawrence after skipping the line to offer the famous Harlem Renaissance painter cough drops and tissues because he noticed Lawrence didn't seem well. He says, when he introduced himself, Lawrence recognized his name from one of his paintings on display in the venue's dining room.
His work has since made it onto many platforms, from an Absolut Vodka ad to murals around the Twin Cities. Last year, he contributed to the No Words Series at the Walker Art Center.
"One of the hardest ones," Aiken said of the installment. "That happened because I was suffering from PTSD when (George) Floyd was murdered."
Aiken went on to share a story of a time he says an officer aggressively arrested him in 1968. While his life experiences influence his art, he says he creates it to "heal the hearts of people and their communities by evoking a positive spirit."
"People call me a modern artist and an abstract artist," Aiken said. "I call my work superlative realism. I gave it my own title. Not because I was arrogant. It's just that I didn't fit. I've never really quite fit."
Aiken's next show is Friday, May 13 at Dreamsong in Northeast Minneapolis.

The legislature has passed a bill to allow a cooling-off period for potential home-buyers after their offer to purchase.
The legislation contains few details about how the procedure will work.
Finance Minister Selina Robinson added the blanks will be filled in, once the B-C Financial Services Authority finishes its investigation into the issue.
Robinson says up to 80 percent of offers to purchase homes are being made with no conditions attached.
She calls that a major threat to potential buyers, and shows why the government had to act quickly to push the legislation through.

Bible teaches peace of mind, not worry
Article content
I recently read that one in four people suffer from anxiety.
Advertisement 2
Article content
There are many stats about numbers of individuals living with mental health challenges.
Many are finding life harder and harder to manage with expenses rising, worry about work, health, and family. It has all increased our level of anxiety in the last two years.
Actually, I would wager that there is no one who hasn’t felt a bit anxious in the last few years. Yet there are some who worry has increased so dramatically that they are unable to manage. It can be debilitating.
The statement “fear not”, “do not fear”, “do not worry” is mentioned about 365 times in the Bible. That would mean that every day you could find a statement in scripture that tells you “Do not worry.”
Now I didn’t go and find all of those! Yet I know I can find many.
This shows us that even at the time the scriptures were being written, people worried. They worried so much that God repeated again and again, “So do not fear.” (Isaiah 41:10)
Worry can keep you up all night. It can cause health problems and can ruin relationships.
Yet I agree with Jesus, “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” (Matthew 6:34)
Worry they say is like rocking in a rocking chair. There is a lot of activity but very little change or difference after all that rocking. You are still exactly where you started.
Worry is like that. We wring our hands, fret and fuss, and yet often we can’t change anything.
Alcoholics Anonymous shares a timeless saying, “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. The courage to change the things I can change. And the wisdom to know the difference.”

We take action when we can, yet know that there are times we have to just be. Be present to what is.
We no longer struggle against the world or become lost in it. We rest in what is.
There are times we are in a “holding pattern”. There is really nothing we can do to change our circumstances but wait.
When this happens we can fortify the way with patience, perseverance, and prayer. Our ability to stay grounded, present, and hopeful is found within this.
I repeated this to myself many time during my recovery from the acquired brain injury. I would become so frustrated trying to make decisions, stay emotionally grounded, even to leave the house.
But I began to follow a daily practice to find the good, the powerful, the hopeful, and develop patience, perseverance and prayer.
Proverbs 4:23 states, “Be careful what you think, because your thoughts run your life.”
Paul expands this in Philippians 4:8, “Finally beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honourable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable. If there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”
Our mind is our greatest ally, or our greatest enemy. What we say to ourselves really does matter. I believe that is why there are so many uplifting statements throughout scripture that we can read, memorize, and return to over and over again to relieve our stress.
“Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up.” (Proverbs 12:25).
It’s Mental Health Week. There will be many positive, uplifting ideas shared online. I will share on Facebook more during the week to encourage you to “Be anxious for nothing. But in prayer, supplication and with great thanksgiving let your request known to God. And the peace that surpasses all understanding will be yours.” (Philippians 4:4-8)
Until next time, remember these wonderful words from Jesus, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” (John 14:27) Many blessings my friend. | https://www.wallaceburgcourierpress.com/opinion/columnists/bible-teaches-peace-of-mind-not-worry | 2022-04-29T17:04:51Z | https://www.wallaceburgcourierpress.com/opinion/columnists/bible-teaches-peace-of-mind-not-worry | true | 1 |
